Planning Commission Report -
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - MIZPAH CHURCH
AUGUST 11, 1987
PURPOSE: To review and recommend action on an application
for Conditional Use Permit.
BACKGROUND:
Name of Applicant: Mizpah United Church of Christ
Address of Property: 412 5th Avenue North
Present Zoning: R -4
Nature of Request:. Ordinance requires a
Conditional Use Permit for construction over
$75,000.
Reason for Request: Construction of narthex
addition is over $75,000.
The applicant is proposing to construct a 1795 square foot
narthex addition located on the north side of the existing
building. This item was tabled on October 29, 1985 at the
request of the applicant. In 1985 the applicant was also
proposing an entrance on the north, but the applicant will
not be doing this entrance in this request. 525.13 states a
Conditional Use Permit is required for new construction or
for the enlargement, remodeling or repair of the exterior of
any existing building including structures accessory
thereto, at a cost of at least $75,000.
ANALYSIS: This addition will provide for better internal
circulation. An elevator shaft will be added for a future
elevator, a foyer area, and a coat room. This addition will
also provide a canopy drop -off area. A small courtyard will
also be created.
No setbacks will be affected with this addition. The
building coverage is 23 %. The maximum building coverage is
30% in an R - District.

The height of the addition will be approximately 25 feet.
The new addition will match the height of the existing
building.
The church is surrounded by homes on the south and east
side, an apartment building on the north and a parking lot
on the west.
The exterior will match the existing stone veneer and
redwood. There will be landscaping around the new addition.
The applicant is required to add one tree.
No additional parking will be required because the seating
capacity will not be changed. No parking will be removed.
A new curb line will be created to the west of the addition,
and a new sidewalk will be added.
The Fire Marshal and Director of Engineering have reviewed
the plans and at this time have found them acceptable.
Staff has reviewed the application and finds it acceptable.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve the Conditional Use Permit
2. Continue for further information
3. Deny the Conditional Use Permit
RECOMMENDATION: I recommend approval of the Conditional Use
Permit with the following Findings of Fact:
1. That a church is a permitted use in an R -4
District.
/2. That the addition meets the requirements for an
R -4 District.
Respectfully submitted,
