Background: On the June 14, 2007 City Council Agenda is Planning Commission Application No. 2007-009 submitted by Brooklyn Center Church of the Nazarene requesting a Special Use Permit and Site and Building Plan Approval for a three phase church addition and parking lot expansion at 501 73rd Avenue North. This matter was considered by the City Council on May 14, 2007, was tabled and referred back to the Planning Commission to review and comment on a revised landscape/screening plan submitted by Pastor Dean Potts. He has since further revised the screening proposal to include a combination of opaque screening, coniferous trees and berming which was reviewed and discussed at the May 31, 2007 Planning Commission meeting. The Planning Commission recommended modifications to the Church’s screening proposal. Their recommendation is contained in a revised Condition No. 11 which can be found on Page 4 of their May 31, 2007 minutes. It should be noted that the property owners at 7242 and 7250 Camden Avenue North were notified of the Planning Commission’s consideration of this matter as directed by the City Council. No one appeared at the meeting to make comment. Also, the 60 day time limit for responding to zoning requests will expire on June 11, 2007 at 12:00 p.m. (the date of the Council meeting). The Council should keep this deadline in mind regarding approval/denial of this application.
