STAFF ANALYSIS PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT:
A.
B.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS, WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN
REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL:
.
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates this site as Residential Estates - up to one
dwelling unit per two gross acres.
ZONING ORDINANCE PROVISIONS, WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL:
.
Section 8-2-1 ACCESSORY USE OR STRUCTURE, states in part:
A use or structure on the same lot with, and of a nature customarily incidental and
subordinate to, the principal use or structure. In nonresidential zones accessory
uses/structures include, but are not limited to, detached carports and garages, caretaker's
quarters, guard houses, storage sheds, outdoor storage structures, microwave and satellite
dish antennas, and similar uses and structures.
.
Section 8-2A-6 (A)(7)(a)
Additional Height Restrictions: All spires, poles, antennas, steeples, towers, and any other
such structures shall be limited to a maximum of thirty-five feet (35'). Additional height
may be permitted if a conditional use permit is approved by the City Council.
.
Section 8-2-4 states in part:
A minimum of 50-feet is required for front yard setbacks within an R-E zoning district.
Page 5 of 12
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\CU\2002\CU-0 1-02 pzf.doc
.
Section 8-3-5 (A) states in part:
An accessory building will not be located in any required front or street side yard area.
e.
DISCUSSION:
.
A single family dwelling unit, located 45-feet north of the right-of-way of Floating Feather
Road, currently exists on the site. Upon an annexation and rezone of the property to R-E, the
status of the dwelling unit would become a nonconforming use since the dwelling does not
meet the minimum front yard setback of 50-feet. As noted in the companion annexation and
rezone application (A-I-02/RZ-OI-02), the dwelling unit is recommended to be moved to a
location on the site which complies with all minimum setbacks for the R-E zoning designation,
prior to the City adopting the ordinance to rezone the property.
Aside from the building not meeting the minimum required setbacks for the R-E zoning
district, the applicant intends to leave the house intact to function as a temporary annex
building until phase three of the church project has commenced. The main church facility is
proposed to be constructed behind (northerly of) the dwelling, whereby the dwelling would
function as an accessory structure, i.e. secondary to the principal use. Because Eagle City
Code states an accessory structure cannot be located within the front yard setback, the existing
dwelling unit cannot be allowed to be utilized as an annex or other use secondary to the
principal church facility in its current location.
Since the applicant has applied for a change in use from a residence to a church, the City
should require that all non-conforming uses be brought into compliance with current City
codes. To accomplish this, the structure should be removed entirely from the site, or to a
location on the site which meets all minimum setback requirements and is not located in the
front or side yard setbacks (as required as a condition of the rezone proposed for this site).
.
Per Eagle City Code, the maximum height allowed for spires, poles, antennas, steeples,
towers, etc. is 35-feet unless a conditional use permit is approved by the City Council. The
cross is proposed to be 50-feet high (I5-feet higher than the maximum allowed by code). The
height of the cross is determined by measuring from the finished grade of the adjacent
roadway to the top of the cross. This conditional use application to request an exception to the
height restriction is in addition to the request to allow a church use on the property.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT:
If the City approves the conditional use and the requested height exception, then staff recommends
the site specific conditions of approval and the standard conditions of approval provided within the
staff report.
PUBLIC HEARING OF THE COMMISSION:
A. A public hearing on the application was held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on March 4,
2002, at which time testimony was taken and the public hearing was closed. The Commission made
their recommendation at that time.
B. Oral testimony in opposition to this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission
by no one.

to the rural community, abundance of compassion of church members shown to others, members
would be agreeable to the maximum 35-foot height restriction for the proposed (not yet designed)
cross or apply later for an exception to allow a taller height.
D. Written testimony in opposition to this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning
Commission in the form of a petition signed by ten (10) individuals with concerns regarding the height
of a 50-foot high cross not being compatible with the rural character of the area.

3. The Commission reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed conditional use
permit application (CU-OI-02) with regard to Eagle City Code Section 8-7-5 "Action by the
Commission and Council", and based upon the information provided concludes that the proposed
conditional use permit is in accordance with the Eagle City Code because:
a.
Will, in fact, constitute a conditional use as established in Section 8-2-3 of Eagle City
Code Title 8 as referenced "as otherwise provided within this Code" since Eagle City
Code Section 8-2A-6 (A)(7)(a) states in part that a church facility may be permitted in a
residential district if a conditional use permit is approved by the City Council;
b.
Will be harmonious with and in accordance with the general objectives or with any
specific objective of the Comprehensive Plan and/or this title (Eagle City Code Title 8)
since there are no inconsistencies with the Comprehensive Plan and since the development
will be required to meet conditions of a design review application and the conditions noted
herein;
c.
Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate
in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such
use will not change the essential character of the same area since the church facility will
not only be required to meet the City's design review requirements, but will also be
required to meet the requirements noted herein;
d.
Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighborhood uses since the
majority of the area surrounding the proposed church facility is planned for residential
uses and will be required to install buffers between this site and the anticipated residential
uses in the vicinity;
e.
Will be served adequately by essential public facilities such as highways, streets, police
and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer and schools; or
that the persons or agencies responsible for the establishment of the proposed use shall be
able to provide adequately any such services as noted in responses received by agencies
providing the public services;
f.
Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and
services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community;
g.
Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of
operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by reason
of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
h.
Will have vehicular approaches to the property which are designed so as not to create an
interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares as are to be approved by the
highway district having jurisdiction; and
1.
Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of
major importance since none are apparent on the site.
4. The Commission reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed conditional use
permit application (CU-OI-02) for a height exception to allow a 50-foot high cross (I5-feet higher than
Page 11 of 12
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\CU\2002\CU-0 1-02 pzf.doc
the 35-foot maximum allowed in the R-E zoning district), and based upon the information provided
concludes that the proposed height exception is not appropriate for the site at this time since neither a
design nor a location for the cross has been determined. If at a future date the design and location of
the cross is determined, then the applicant may apply for a conditional use permit to allow the cross to
exceed the maximum height allowed in that district, subject to approval by the City Council.
5. Pursuant to Eagle City Code 8-7-3-5 (F), a conditional use permit shall not be considered as
establishing a binding precedent to grant other conditional use permits.
