7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. No new signage has been proposed. The primary sign is located in the NE comer of the site, meeting the 10' property line setback requirement and posing no problems for traffic. In “R ” Districts, one nameplate sign for each use permitted by CUP is allowed with no more than 12 s.f. per surface. The existing pemianent sign is approximately 50 s.f. in area of each side and would require a variance if it were to be replaced. A second, smaller hanging banner type sign is along North Femdale at the driveway entrance, approximately 2' x 4' or smaller per side, no more than 10-15 s.f. total of both sides. Continued use of the existing signage is acceptable, subject to the condition that any new signs would need to be submitted for review prior to issuance of a permit.

New amenities to the site will include a bituminous walkway leading from the parking lot to the lower level, presumably for handicap access, and a new stairway adjacent to the east wall of the building is proposed. A 24 ’ x 40' bituminous or concrete ‘patio’ apron is proposed at the walkout level, meeting the 26' wetland setback. No lighting plan has been indicated on the submitted plans. City ordinances require that light souices not be visible at the lot lines. The site is served with sewer from Plyanouth, but has its own well. Because the new church building will be required to be fitted with a fire suppression sprinkler system, the church is advised to work with the City of Plymouth to obtain municipal water supply. The proposed building has a peak height of 47' above the high side grade adjacent to the building. City code establishes by definition that height is measured to “the average height of the highest gable of a pitched or hipped roof. The defined height Page 3 of7 —^
