~ z-3- 9/5/78 Co~'~mission: A condit.~onal Use permit would be necessary under p. resent zoning, an¢t the permit would be in effect as long as the requirements were met, but it woul~, not be transferrable. Ives: Cannot see why they want to put a public meeting place in a residential area and. create problems. Rev. Reed: E~plained ho~,~ he went to Spring Realty~ and then all the steps including meeting all the requirements of the State Inspector to convert the house into a com~,ercial building. They would have bought additional land, but that orices were too high. Wurm: Intentions of use for house were kept secret until after sale. Ives: He had to get signaturSs when he put up his building. Did the church do same? Why not? Ken Peterson: Records do not indicate Public Hearing. Ives: Was a Public Hearing necessary? Ken Peterson: Would depend on zoning requirements at that time. Ives: City should insist church go back to square one and obtain sig- natures and then proceed.' ~) /'cjJ/,~.-~ · F.~n Mosby, 15231 Hematite St. N.W.~: Previous o~..aaer never indicated who he sold the house too, and why didn't the City let them know what was happening? Why don't the Church restore the building to a house and sell using the money to relocate in a more suitable place? Rev. Reed: They are quite satisfied with present location~ and they have done everything possible to comply. Indicated that they have been cal.]e<1 au~ threatened~ but when questioned ~.~:ould not elaborate further. S~'ete<~ that the present church is not operating under a C.U.P.~ But that Mr. Co× an8 Mr. Thurston said they could be there. Mosby: E×tremely concerned with road problem for children and traffic esoeci~.!ly since the possiblity of up to 40 new homes in High Point. Moved here for p~ace and quiet, and wishes church would use home only until they could relocate. If construction allowed at least 100 trees ','.~oul8 be removed. Would like to invite Commission and Council members to neighborhood to see the road condition. Likes his neighborhood~ neighbors, ~nd doesn't wish to have to move. Wurm: Sun~ay is much quieter s'ince services are being held elsewhere due to fire. Wur.~: I~vasion of privacy w~en they are in their garden on Sunday. Hematite GraceH'allgtved~ '15~21' ~. ave N.W.: Moved out to Ramsey for privacy, and is .afraid Church will affect resale value of their home. Church has not h~i~t up oro~e~y_ _ ~ ~. as pro~.~ised. . It has been a big headache, and while not against church feel it being vacant is hazardous to children. If property is rezoned for church, entire area should be rezoned. A1 Sorteberg: According to past minutes there had been meetin~:'s hel~ on this ~atter. Mosby: Was never officially notified of meetings~ and when did attend was told nothing could be done to prevent it. Asked if there was enough frontage for new construction.
