HomeMy WebLinkAboutApplication APPLICANT 6/1/2010 (2) . . Narrative for Hope Community Church Date: June 1, 2010 To: Springfield Planning Commission From: Rev. Bill White, Hope Community Church Re: Discretionary Use for church, MUC (Mixed Use Commercial) zone. Site address: 1250 18th Street. Map and Tax lot: 17-03-25-34-00-3900 The purpose of this Discretionary Use application is to allow the Hope Community Church to move from its current location at 14th and Main, to a new location in the former DMV office at the Mohawk shopping center. The church primarily ministers to socially and economically disadvantaged people within the Springfield community. There are two services on Sunday mornings. At most, each service has 50 people. Typically, there are fewer than ten cars on Sunday morning, since most attendees arrive by walking or bicycling. This new location will allow the church to operate a daycare center in the same building. The previous site was too constrained for safe operation of a daycare. The State Child Care Division has visited the site and has approved the daycare center for up to 40 children. The interior of the building will be remodeled to accommodate the church as well as the daycare center. Except for the outdoor play area for the daycare center, there will be minimal exterior changes. The existing parking lot provides ample parking for the Sunday services, and there are four bicycle parking spaces adjacent to the front entrance. Only 3 bicycle spaces are required.
