CITY OF PLYMOUTH (2005149) Chair Holmes introduced the request by the City of Plymouth for a lighting zone map amendment for Plymouth Presbyterian Church located at 3755 Dunkirk Lane. Senior Planner Darling gave an overview of the March 7, 2006 staff report. Chair Holmes asked if the current parking lot lights conform to the LZ -2 requirements. Senior Planner Darling said that the lights on the parking lot property were installed before the adoption of the new lighting requirements and may not conform to either the LZ -2 or LZ -3 requirements, but they are grandfathered. Approved Planning Commission Minutes March 15, 2006 Page 2 Planning Manager Senness stated that they would have to change out more than 50 percent of the lighting before we would require them to change out all of the lighting. Chair Holmes introduced the applicant, Jeff Stromgren, 711 W. Lake Street. Mr. Stromgren said he wanted to mention that the current parking lot size is well beyond what they will need in the future.
