(W5-3I49 September 19,2005 Pace 6 of 7 ImiMcts to Adjacent Property Owners The nearest property owner is to the west at a distance of approximately 250*. This site is a group home (also operating under a conditional use permit) and would not be negatively impacted by the proposed expansion as most of the improvements are on the east side of the property. The property owner to the east is a residential home, currently 360* from the church. The extent of the parking lot currently reaches to a distance of approximately 100* to the house, with the closest location being where the Wolsfeld Woods public entrance is located. The proposed addition would bring the church a distance of approximately 320’ from the house to the east. The proposal will not add any negative impacts as no parking lot lighting is imposed and any building mounted lighting will be directed downwards and is probably too great a distance away for that lig? t to even reach the property line. Lastly, there are three residential homes to the south, on the south side of Sixth Avenue N. These homes range in distance from 390* to 490* from the front fa9ade of the existing church. Staff docs not foresee any negative impacts resulting to these properties with the proposal.
