Memo to the Mayor and City Council/GP 97-4 <br />July 21, 1997 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />held similar revival meetings in the past at this site. On July 17, 1995, the <br />City Council approved a permit for the church to hold revival meetings from <br />August I through August 17, 1995. A review of city records did not show any <br />complaints filed relating to those meetings. <br /> <br />Site plan <br /> <br />The church is proposing to place a 70' X 100' tent on the site. The tent will be <br />located near the center of the site. Parking will be located on the northern <br />end of the property with two points of access. The parking area will be <br />unimproved, approximately 300' X 300' ( 90,000 s.f.) and should be adequate <br />to meet the parking needs of this event. An entrance is proposed off of 197th <br />and an exit is proposed on to Irving Street. Because of the proximity to the <br />Highway 169/197th Avenue intersection, it is recommended that the access <br />on 197th be exit only and the entrance should be on Irving Street. It is also <br />recommended that the parking area be defined and the boundaries <br />delineated by rope or some other material. <br /> <br />The church is proposing some site preparation work such as minor grading <br />and cutting of brush and grass. <br /> <br />Fire and building code review <br /> <br />In order to ensure that the building and fire codes are met, the applicant <br />should provide a layout of the tent to the Fire Chief and the Building Official <br />for their review prior to the site being use for the revival meetings. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff recommends approval of the request by Solid Rock Church to hold tent <br />revival meetings with the following conditions: <br /> <br />THE PARKING AREA BE DEFINED WITH ROPE OR OTHER MATERIAL TO DELINEATE THE <br />BOUNDARIES OF THE PARKING AREA. <br /> <br />THE FIRE CHIEF AND BUILDING OFFICIAL REVIEW THE LAYOUT TO ENSURE <br />COMPLIANCE WITH BUILDING AND FIRE CODES. <br /> <br />ENTRANCE TO THE SITE BE FROM IRVING STREET AND THE EXIT BE ON TO 197TH <br />AVENUE AND THE ACCESS POINTS BE SIGNED ENTRANCE AND EXIT ONLY. <br /> <br />4.
