::~ Council Minutes of 02-02-10 Orlowski, and the committee voted 3-0 to recommend approval by all of Council. Suspension of the rule requiring three readings was requested and recommended as the application is time sensitive and to protect the integrity of all property along this channel and prevent further sedimentation downstream of this channel. The Environmental Committee concluded their work at 7:43 p.m. Councilwoman Jones, Chairwoman of the Building, Zoning and Development Committee: The BZD Committee met on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. Present were committee members Jones, Barker and Mahoney; Council members Brossard, Kearney, Orlowski, and Williamson; the Mayor, Planning Director, Law Director, Building Commissioner and Animal Warden. • The committee met to discuss Calvary Community Church at 28887 Lorain Road. The proposal consists of a request for a Conditional Use Permit for a church in a general business retail district, specifically in Pheasant's Run Plaza. In addition to the Conditional Use Permit, the applicant is proposing minor changes to the building site including filling in a rear loading door, modifying the loading area, and providing for sufficient accessible parking. These changes will be handled through the minor change process so long as the applicant's submittal meets all Zoning Code requirements. The Building Commissioner identified a concern related to the amount of required parking due to the change in the use classification of the proposed tenant space from retail to assembly. The Zoning Code Section 1161.06 allows for shared parking or combined use of parking facilities in multi-tenant buildings where the businesses normally have different hours of operation. The property owners must submit an agreement or contract defining this combined use of parking facilities to the City. The Planner recommended to Council that a submission of an agreement to the City that meets the requirements of the Law Department be a condition of approval for the Conditional Use Permit. Council had also recently approved a Conditional Use Permit for a church in a general retail business district, specifically in the Stearns and Lorain Plaza just a few weeks ago. Councilwoman Jones made a motion to recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit for CMS09-13 Calvary Community Church on the condition of submitting a parking agreement to the City that meets the requirements of the Law Department. The motion was seconded by Councilman Barker and it was approved with a vote of 3-0. The meeting ended at 7:09 p.m. Councilwoman Jones made a motion to approve the Conditional Use Permit for Calvary Community Church located at 28887 Lorain Road subject to the recommendations of the Boards and Commissions and on the condition of a parking agreement submitted to the City that meets the requirements of the Law Department. The motion was seconded by Councilman Barker and passed unanimously. Conditional Use Permit for Calvary Community Church approved. 8
