COUNCIL BUSINESS Case #1: Rqquest to Rezone Certain Property from R-1 Rural Residential to R- 3 Urban Residential; Case of New Life Church Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that the New Life Church has acquired property on the east side of T.H. #47 at abgut 172nd Lane. They are proposing to build their new church structure on the property but it isl zoned R-1 Rural Residential, for which churches are not a permitted use. Consequently, the!City has received formal application for a rezoning of the property to R-3 Urban Residential, for which churches are a pem~itted use. Ms. Frolik reported that the site is approximately 11 !acres in size. The property to the north, south and east is zoned R-1 Rural Residential. The~roperty on the west side of T.H. #47 is zoned Planned Unit Development. Although the R-3 t. Jistrict is generally intended to facilitate development of higher density housing in the urban district, the City Code does contain development standards for R-3 property without City sewer and w~tter. She continued that the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and there was one:neighboring property owner present that expressed support for the request. The Commission noted that there is another church in the single family district within one-half mile of this proposed Ioct'~lion. Councihnember B;eyer inquired if this is just a zoning request to which Ms. Frolik replied yes. Counciln~ember Beyer stated she is uncomfortable acting on this request without first reading the public hearing mitlute for public comment, but she is also concerned about the 60-day time frame.
