Conditional Use Permits for Churches and Schools

The Planning Commission looks at the details of the requests for Conditional Use Permits of churches and schools. New parking, drainage, traffic control, and lot coverage percentages are the main focus of this body.

Requests

For the Planning Commission, the initial information required would need to be turned in 30 days prior to the meeting and include, if not all:

• Site plan drawn to scale, with all existing and/or proposed structures and drives
• Construction prints showing elevation drawings and floor plans, drawn to scale
• Traffic studies
• Topographic information of the property
• Impervious vs. previous land coverage percentages
• Drainage calculations

The applicant must come into the City office to fill out the application form with a staff member. After the initial review, comments will be available one week after the deadline. At this point, the applicant has one week to answer/respond to the comments and submit one copy of the response and updated plans. If approved by both the Board of Zoning Appeals and Planning Commission, the project can go forward, including any stipulations imposed by the Board of Zoning Appeals or Planning Commission, and a building permit can be issued the following day for work to commence. The information needed in obtaining a building permit for the proposed work will be in accordance with the materials listed in the Permits area.
