Commissioner Johnson asked what impact the Highway 10 project could have on this site. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl stated that Connections Church has been involved in the discussions related to Highway 10 and are aware of the potential to have an exit ramp on the property. She stated that staff is looking at alternate options, but the Church has been a great partner. Commissioner Johnson asked if the plans for the Church would impact the current Highway 10 proposal. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that the project as planned would not impact the current Highway 10 plans. John Kinghorn, applicant, stated that the plan as presented with the building and parking is simply to provide an idea of showing how large that would be. He stated that additional design work has not yet occurred. Commissioner Johnson noted that the Highway 10 project shows the ramp going across the property and asked if the church is aware of the plan. Mr. Kinghorn stated that the church is aware of the Highway 10 project. He stated that this is very preliminary, and they are simply attempting to secure an approval from the City related to this use on the property. Citizen Input No comments.
