Shoebox type parking lot lights would be installed that direct light away from neighbors. The light standards would be similar to those seen in the parking lot on Del Valle Parkway side. The reception from the residents of the proposed site plan has divided into two groups: the residents on Del Valle Parkway and the residents on Golden Road. The Del Valle Parkway residents welcome this proposal as the existing parking area accessible from Del Valley Parkway would be reduced, which in turn would reduce the amount traffic passing through their front doors. The Golden Road residents oppose the proposed site plan. They felt that the proposal would bring additional vehicles to the Golden Road neighborhood as the parking lot on the Golden Road side would be doubled (from the currently 51 parking spaces to 101 parking spaces), that the construction of the education building at the proposed would make it impossible to make the parking lot on Del Valle Parkway as the primary parking lot as there would not no opportunity for expansion. In addition, in a meeting in December 2006 with the Golden Road core group, the residents expressed their objection on the proposed multiple room addition as they believe the proposed addition is a form of expansion of the congregation area, which would result in additional traffic to the neighborhood that the existing streets in the neighborhood do not have the capacity to absorb additional vehicles. Although the 1999 Master Plan was not approved in its entirety, the church pursued construction according to that plan and invested significantly in the site as a result of the 1999 submittal. Staff notes that there did not appear to be any concern by the Commission that the prospered Mater Plan was deficient in any way. The Commission chose not to adopt the Plan and was silent on any reason as to why it was not part of the action or approval. There was no contention or neighbors opposing the project. Architecture WMB Architecture, who designed the 1999 expansion, has designed of the education building and the multipurpose room expansion with the same architectural style of the existing sanctuary building. The education building has a contemporary style that matches the existing building (non- sanctuary portion of the building). The building would have horizontal wood siding, a concrete the roof, and anodized bronze aluminum windows. The building would be a brown color with hunter green as the accent color. The multiple-purpose room is an extension of the existing facility. Its design coherent to the design of the existing design in that it repeats the building exteriors and window style.
