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. He said there currently are enough spaces to meet the City's
requirements if they ever expand the sanctuary in the future.
Chair Holmes opened and closed the public hearing as no one requested to speak on the
item.
