Planner Shepard replied that it actually makes a "T." It is an emergency second
point of access for the Woodland Park Estates subdivision.
Member Schmidt asked if we were anticipating that people would use that as an
alternative way to get back down to Ziegler.
Planner Shepard replied that was not anticipated.

care center, the intersection will stay at the same level of service categories
despite the fact that the delay may increase some due to the increased number
of trips.
Member Craig asked if Ziegler was only crowded at the PM peak rather than
during the day when most of the day care traffic will occur.
Mr. Delich replied that counts were done at the AM and PM peaks and that those
are the same peaks for the day care center. He stated that he suspected the
level of service during the day to be at B or better.
Member Craig asked if C was the lowest level of service in the calculations
during the short term.
Mr. Delich replied that it was.
Member Schmidt asked if Charlie Lane would remain a dirt road or if part of it will
be paved.
Planner Shepard replied that they will be paving Charlie Lane to the eastern limit
of Lot 1.
Public Input
Robert Schutzius, 3208 Mesa Verde Street, gave his testimony to the Board. He
stated that his street is the northernmost street in the Woodland Park Estates
subdivision. He stated that he shares a fence line with the Church. He stated that
he wanted to express unconditional support for the project, both the church and
day care facility.
Public Input Closed
Member Craig asked about a quote in one of the letters which discussed a phase
two and stated that it would create 1,000 trips per day.
Planner Shepard replied that when the neighborhood meetings were done for the
subdivision in 1994-1995, there was the proposal that there could be a school
facility. That could potentially be a second phase in the future but it would have to
come back through the review process and will be reviewed with respect to traffic
at that time.
Member Schmidt asked if Charlie Street ends in a cul-de-sac.

Project: Christ Fellowship Church, Phase One, Project
Development Plan, #29-94C
Project Description: Request for an 8,700 square foot church on
3.58 acres located on Lot One of Christ
Fellowship Church Subdivision. The site is
located at the southeast corner of Ziegler Road
and Charlie Lane and is zoned UE, Urban
Estate.
Staff Recommendation: Approval
Hearinci Testimony, Written Comments and Other Evidence:
Ted Shepard, City Planner, stated that the gist of the letters received regarding
the project are primarily related to the on -site child care center. He stated that the
child care center is a permitted use in the Urban Estate zone district. It is a Type
II use and is part of the approval tonight — to approve or deny both the church
and the child care center. The land use is permitted by the zone district.
Member Craig asked if the traffic issues could be addressed given that the site is
a church, child care facility, and possibly a school.
Planner Shepard replied that there is no school use; it is just a church and child
care center and suggested that the applicant's traffic engineering consultant
answer the questions.
Matt Delich, 2272 Glenhaven Drive, the applicant's traffic engineer, made himself
available for questions.
Member Craig asked about the traffic congestion on Ziegler Road and how a
child care center will affect that.
Mr. Delich replied that the child care center will hold about 120 children at its
upper limit and calculations were used assuming that number. He stated that at
the intersection of Ziegler and Charlie, the minor street movements operate a
level of service B during peak hours. That level is certainly acceptable. The site
traffic includes not only the day care facility but also the church administrative
offices. The short term future for the studies is 2008. Without the day care facility,
the intersection of Ziegler and Charlie will stay at level of service B during the
peak hour and be at level of service C at the afternoon peak hour. With the day
