Review the Preliminary Site Plan for the Andover Assembly of God Building
Addition at 425 Greenvalley Drive. Dayton Poe, Youth Pastor of the
church, explained the application for adding on to the back of the building.
This expansion is for the youth facilities and kitchen. They currently have a
truck in the rear of the facility for storage of the skate park rails and
ramps.
There was general discussion about the parking lot
and the overflow into the residential area.
Charley Lewis arrived at
6:10 p.m.
There was general discussion about the skate park at
the church. Mr. Poe said the existing concrete is to be removed and replaced
with an 8" pad. The playground area will be fenced with 4' chain link
from the edge of the existing classroom to the corner of the existing
gymnasium. The fence around the basketball cage will be 15' tall and
constructed with 4"x 6" lattice style fence and would be painted to
match the exterior of the building. There will be a 6' chain-link fence for
security built around the skate park.
Les Mangus asked Mr. Poe what the lighting plan is
for the back of the building. Mr. Poe said they are not planning to use the
skate park at night right now but they would be willing to add them on the
corner posts, pointed in toward the park, when the need arises.
There was general discussion about the existing
fence material around the playground. Don Kimble stated there are no yard
lights or landscape proposed for any of this project, due to the lack of
visibility from Central.
There was general discussion about the skate ramps
and security plans for this park. Mr. Poe stated the largest will be 6' tall
and they have a 4' half pipe that will be left outside full time upon
completion of this project. The skate park will be approximately 300' back
from the center of Central.
Les Mangus asked if colored mesh fencing could be
used instead of galvanized.
Gary Israel asked if the brick would match on the
new construction. Don Kimble said matching brick would not be a problem.
Dayton Poe stated they currently have 80 - 100 kids
attending on Thursday nights, and after school in the afternoons, with the
majority of them being brought in on busses and do not plan for a major
increase in traffic in the area.
Don Kimble said he understood the Site Plan
Committee wanted 2-yard lights, one on each corner facing toward the screened
area, making sure to avoid the light in the residential area.
Gary Israel suggested that some plantings be
included on the west side of the fencing.
Consensus of the Committee is that this will be a
positive project for the community.
