CONSIDER AN INTERIM USE PERMIT — SUBORDINATE CLASSROOMSTRUCTURES- 3037 BUN %ER LAKE BOULEVARD NW— MEADOW CREEK CHURCH Mr. Carlberg explained Kinghom Construction, on behalf of Meadow Creek Church has requested additional time for the existing subordinate classroom structures. The church would like to extend the approval for these two structures an additional two years. The subordinate classroom structures are currently being used for the Legacy Christian Academy. No changes to the existing buildings are proposed. Mr. Carlberg reviewed the staff report with the Council. • Councilmember Bukkila stated as she was looking through the paperwork, the expiration date was August 31, 2015 so she did not understand that if something were set to expire, in theory it should have already been removed or at what point does an expiration date not expire. Mr. Carlberg stated • Regular Andover City Council Meeting Minutes — September 15, 2015 Page 3 there was an expiration date and it was acknowledged that has passed. It is their intent to ask for an extension of time to allow the subordinate classroom structure versus removing it. They became aware of this after the expiration date and are asking for an extension of time. He stated this has happened in the past where an expiration date was missed and the City worked with the individual on their plans. Councilmember Holthus stated having been on Planning and Zoning Commission for a number of years they have addressed this topic of portables quite often. They are supposed to be temporary and she feels better that this request is for only two years but she would feel a lot better if she knew exactly what the intention is and the timeline for the addition they want to put on the facility. Mr. Grady Kinghom, Kinghom Construction, stated they actually started this awhile back and they did not realize the deadline was August 2015. He stated when they originallybrought the portables in, their plan was to add onto the church. The problem was in 2007 -2008, the economy fell and school enrollment dropped as well and to add on they did not have the numbers to make it work. He stated in January/February 2015 they started meeting to discuss the needs and expansion of the church. He stated the school is growing and the next expansion will probably not be the last expansion. He stated they are in the planning phase right now and think they can make that happen • in the next year and a half or so Mayor Trade asked if the portables are being used for the Legacy school and are they also used for church on Sundays. Mr. Kinghom stated they are being used by Legacy for 5' and 61 graders daily. Motion by Bukkila, Seconded by Knight, to approve the Interim Use Permit extension for a subordinate classroom structure at 3037 Bunker Lake Boulevard NW, Meadow Creek Church. Motion carried unanimously.
