PZ-2000-39 Consider Site plan approval for NET Church located at 8203 Starnes, being Lot 11, Block 6, Crestwood Estates. APPROVED Mr. Jim Langford, Architect, came forward and addressed the Commission concerning the request. Mr. Langford explained that the NET Church was seeking approval of the Site Plan for development of the Lot into a Church facility in the near future. Mr. Langford explained that two site plans have been submitted for consideration. He explained that the preferred plan is to have a shared entry with Winn-Dixie to the East. Mr. Langford stated that they were in negotiations with Winn-Dixie to obtain an easement to be able to share the drive but they had not received a full commitment. Mr. Langford stated that the reason for the two site plans rather than one was so that the process would continue while the easement was being obtained. If the easement is not obtained then the single entry would then be pursued. Mr. Langford explained that originally, the plan was to have a single access off of Starnes on the West side of the lot. This plan called for the removal of trees and additional paving. Although this would be allowed, the preferred site plan was developed and both plans were being presented. Both site plans meet city requirements and Mr. Langford was seeking approval of both to go forward to Council. It was discussed that before the item is presented to Council that the easement and shared access be approved by Winn-Dixie. There was discussion about alight pole on the site plan. John Burnside, Pastor of the NET Church came forward and addressed the Commission and asked for their consideration. After discussion, the Chair entertained a motion. Mr. Davis moved to approve the site plan (s) with the stipulation that the site plan with the West entry have a light pole height not to exceed 15 feet; and the site plan with the East entry to remove the light standard indicated in the Northwest rear yard. Mr. Nehring seconded. The motion passed unanimously (4-0). Page 6 9/14/00 P & Z Minutes --',.,_._.,~.~..._-----~ , .. - .',n. ",.. ... ... . 9. CITIZEN COMMENTS There were none. 10.
