Grace Assembly of God Church Request for Administrative Subdivision, Public Hearin.q, Case No. AS 96-1 City Planner Steve Ach indicated that Grace Assembly of God Church is requesting an administrative subdivision to divide approximately 38 acres into two parcels. The property is located at the northwest corner of Tyler Street and County Road 13. Steve Ach indicated that the subdivision has taken on a slightly different configuration from the original proposal with parcel A being 10 acres and Parcel B being about 27 acres. Steve Ach indicated that the recommendation from the Park and Recreation Commission has changed since the Staff Memo has been sent to the Council. Originally the Park Commission recommended acquiring land as part of the subdivision, but at this point the park commission would prefer to wait until the land is further subdivided so as to better define the park; Dave Anderson, Park and Recreation Commission representative, felt that it would be the recommendation of the Park and Recreation Commission to accept cash on this lot split at this time.
