<br />CHRIST THE KING <br /> <br /> <br />LUTHERAN CHURCH. 1900 SEVENTH ST, N,W. . NEW BRIGHTON, MINN, 55112 . (612) 633-4674 <br /> <br />April 2, 1982 <br /> <br />City Council Planning Commission <br />City of New Brighton <br />803 Fifth Avenue N.W. <br />New Brighton, Minnesota 55112 <br /> <br />Dear Members of the City Council and the Planning Commission: <br /> <br />We are planning to remodel and expand our facilities located at 1900 <br />Seventh Street N.W. <br /> <br />We have been a member of the community for over twenty years. Our <br />congregation was organized in New Brighton on December 10, 1961. We <br />moved from New Brighton Elementary School into our first unit in March <br />of 1963. Our congregation continued to grow and we added our main sanc- <br />tuary in May of 1969. Since that time our baptized membership has grown <br />to approximately 2,100 people. This growth was rapid and not planned for. <br /> <br />It is because of this tremendous growth that we are planning to add <br />6,700 square feet of new construction to our building. In addition to <br />applying for a Building Permit, we are applying for a Special Use Permit. <br />The Special Use Permit is for an exception to the New Brighton Zoning <br />District R-l (Church in a Residential District). We ask that you approve <br />this request. <br /> <br />We also have two other concerns that you have to consider: <br /> <br />1.) To meet the pending and runoff requirements of the Rice Creek Water- <br />shed District, we may have to add some fill to the slope on the east <br />side of the driveway. We request that you allow us to add a minimum <br />amount of fill if required. <br /> <br />2.) Our parking lot in the front of the church does not meet the set-back <br />requirements. The distance from the Seventh Street right-of-way to <br />our parking lot curb is approximately 18 feet. Because this condition <br />has existed since 1963, we request that we be allowed to leave the <br />parking lot as it exists. <br /> <br />We thank you for your consideration and hope that you will help us meet <br />our needs so that we can continue to serve our members and the community. <br /> <br />Sincerely, . <br /> <br />~/ II tuuM~ <br /> <br />Leonard A. Krumm, Chair <br />Building Committee <br /> <br />PASTORS: PAUL H, OLSON. 2210 - 5TH ST. NW, NEW BRIGHTON 55112/ LUTHER J, OLSON. 1388 PIKE LAKE DR. NEW BRIGHTON 55112 <br />
