-2- APPEAL STATEMENT NO. I "This complex would induce growth." RESPONSE, TO APPEAL STATEMENT NO I The subject property is surrounded to the north, east, west, and south by property zoned AG-40. The regional religious assembly use may be conditionally permitted in the AG-40 zone with an approved Use Permit application. The church will not set a significant land use precedent in the area and will not generate a need for additional housing. Therefore, this project is not agrowth- inducing action. APPEAL STATEMENT NO 2 "It conflicts with the existing use of the land north of Fright Mile Road." RESPONSE TO APPEAL STA'I'EMEN`I' NO. 2 The existing use of land north of f ight Mile Road is currently agricultural and Bear Creek abuts the western and northern property lines of the project site. The Religious Assembly-.Regional use type may be conditionally permitted in the agricultural zone with an approved Use Permit application. A noise study dated June 17, 2008 by J. C. Brennan & Associates, Inc. and a traffic study dated May 8, 2008 by Dowling Associates, Inc. were performed. Hours of operation for the church will be from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and from 9:00 a.m. to 1 :00 p.m. on Sundays. The two proposed classrooms will operate on Sundays only from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p-m. The noise study concluded standard commercial construction practices consistent with the uniform building code will mitigate for interior traffic noise levels. The study also concluded there is a potentially significant impact to the children's play area and if the play arca is used at.night a sound wall six feet in height should be constructed on the western edge of the children's play arca. The applicant has stated the children's play area will not be used at night and therefore, no mitigation is required. As a Condition of Approval, the applicant will be required to construct the masonry wall if the play area is used at night. The traffic study identified a potentially significant impact.regarding on-site circulation with the intersection of Fight Mile Road and the project's proposed private driveway. The study concluded the southbound shared left-right on-site lane of the driveway should be split into separate, exclusive left and right turn lanes to ensure any impacts from traffic will be less-than- significant. This mitigation measure was included as a Condition of Approval. Additionally,a six foot fence i5 proposed along the perimeter of the property. Wherefore, the project will not conflict with existing land uses as traffic and noise issues have been addressed and the use will be contained on-site. APPEAL STA"ITMI;N'I'NO. 3 "It would have a significant effect on the environment in the long run."
