AGENDA ITEMS (Continued)
The neighbors expressed concerns regarding noise, traffic and failure of
the applicant to meet conditions previously imposed. They were concerned
that the residence would be used by out of town members and questioned
the enforceability of the special condition which shows 10 P.M. as the
closing time. They noted that services have gone on later.
Special Condition No. 5 was amended to read as follows:
"5. Operation hours of the Mosque, including services and social
activities, should not occur before 8 A.M. or after 10 P.M."
Special Condition No. 11 was added as follows:
"11. This modified Use Permit shall expire one (1) year from the
date of issuance. This Use Permit shall, after review by the
Planning Commission, be renewed if it has been determined
that the applicant has complied with standard and special
condit ions. 'I
The Commission made the following additional finding:
1'6. The purpose of setting operation hours, under Special Condition
5, is because of the nature of the neighborhood and the inter-
action between a Church having services and a neighborhood
corrmunity. II
The Chairman advised the neighbors to inform the Commission, in writing,
if violations occurred. He also advised the applicant that all conditions
must be adhered to as written.
