Solid Rock Church Page 2 <br /> May 24, 1994 <br /> • <br /> HISTORY <br /> Elk River Assembly of God received approval for a conditional use permit in <br /> 1984 to construct a church in the Brentwood Subdivision. There have been <br /> numerous requests by the church throughout the past ten years on a wide <br /> variety of topics. The following lists these requests: <br /> ♦ June 18, 1984 - received approval to construct a new church within the <br /> Brentwood Subdivision. <br /> ♦ November 21, 1988 - a conditional use permit was received to operate a <br /> daycare facility for eighteen (18) children from the church parsonage. <br /> ♦ November 19, 1990 - a conditional use permit was denied by the City <br /> Council to operate a licensed daycare facility for up to one hundred (100) <br /> children from the existing church. <br /> ♦ July 15, 1991 - a conditional use permit was denied by the City Council to <br /> operate a licensed daycare facility for up to fifty-nine (59) children from <br /> the existing church. <br /> ♦ July 19, 1993 - a conditional use permit was received to convert an <br /> • existing garage into a single family dwelling and to add additional <br /> signage. At this time the church also changed its name to Solid Rock <br /> Church. <br /> The daycare center conditional use permit proposals in 1990 and 1991 were <br /> denied for a variety of reasons as noted in the attached minutes. The two <br /> main concerns voiced by the surrounding property owners, Planning <br /> Commission, City Council, and staff were related to traffic and the <br /> outstanding stipulations from the original conditional use permit. The <br /> outstanding stipulations from the original conditional use permit have been <br /> addressed by the church with the exception of some trees, which are required <br /> to be planted along 195th Avenue. If this proposal is approved staff <br /> recommends the trees be planted prior to occupying the building for <br /> educational purposes. <br /> SCHOOL <br /> Solid Rock Church is requesting to operate a school accommodating grades K- <br /> 12 from the lower level of the existing church. According to a letter from <br /> Senior Pastor Bill Matthews, the lower level of the church could <br /> accommodate a maximum of 250-300 students. The church anticipates that <br /> approximately 100-150 students could attend the school for the 1994-95 <br /> school year. <br /> solid.pc <br />
