PCR2026028 Lakepoint Church BSORESOLUTION #P.C. 028-2026
APPROVAL OF A BUILDING, SITE AND OPERATION PLAN AMENDMENT FOR
LAKEPOINT CHURCH LOCATED IN THE NW'/4 OF SECITON 1
(S63 W13694 JANESVILLE ROAD / TAX KEY NO. 2162.997.001)
WHEREAS, The petitioner has submitted a request for approval of a Building, Site, and Operation
(BSO) Plan amendment for Lakepoint Church located at S63 W13694 Janesville Road / Tax Key
No. 2162.997.001, and
WHEREAS, The request is to take over the neighboring space in the building, that formerly
housed Anita's Dance Studio, and convert the space into usable assembly space for the different
activities that are held at the church and to be able to paint the exterior of the building to a new
paint scheme, and
WHEREAS, The 2035 Comp Plan depicts this property for commercial uses and the proposal is
consistent with the Plan and the current use is already existing and approved for this site, and
WHEREAS, The property is currently zoned B-2 Highway Business District and the current use is
consistent with the Code, and
WHEREAS, The Code generalizes parking needs for public assembly facilities providing for
seated audiences (churches, theaters, etc.) as one space for every three seats, which is used by
the petitioner to analyze their parking needs, and
WHEREAS, The petitioner breaks down the parking needs as the existing space being a 5,000
sq. ft. auditorium for 400 people; an area of assembly space, bathrooms, hallways, lobby and two
classrooms known as "The Falls" for 102 people; and the prep kitchen, storage and additional
assembly space known as "The Hall" for 248 people for a total capacity of the entire Lakepoint
Church space of 750 people, and
WHEREAS, Using the three visitors per vehicle ratio as described by the petitioner would require
250 parking stalls for Lakepoint Church if operating at full capacity, and
WHEREAS, Two other uses including Better Together and Leah's Italian Restaurant would still be
operating at the busy times of Lakepoint Church's events, which adds an additional 60 possible
people, bringing the total of the entire property at busy times to 810 people, and
WHEREAS, 810 people would require 270 stalls using the 3:1 parking ratio and the site only
contains 256 stalls, and
WHEREAS, To remedy the possible parking concerns, Lakepoint Church has offered to limit its
total capacity of its three event spaces to 600 people by only using two of the three event spaces
at a time and they will not host two events on the same day that exceed 600 people in anticipated
usage, and
WHEREAS, The petitioner states that most large events do not exceed 200 — 250 meaning if
there were two events being held at the same time, they will likely have ample parking spaces
available, and
WHEREAS, If the event spaces are limited to 600 plus the 60 people estimated for the two other
tenants, that totals 660 people and then using the 3:1 parking ratio, that requires a need of 220
stalls on -site, which leaves 36 extra stalls for overflow usage, and
WHEREAS, The petitioner stated that they have run into two events that ran over capacity where
they experienced parking issues and since then, they have taken precautions including refusing
to allow a particular family to utilize the space and ask additional questions to be assured that
parking will not become an issue moving forward, and
WHEREAS, Lakepoint is proposing to use a some of their remaining space for their offices and a
1,093 SF space for a fitness studio for different fitness activities and/or classes that they would
like to have, and
WHEREAS, As it relates to the office areas within this space, if any non-Lakepoint users are
looking to use/rent these spaces for any period of time for any purpose, they would need to
contact Planning Department staff first to see if their use of the space can be allowed and if a
Business Registration is required, and
WHEREAS, The proposed paint scheme includes the following:
- The green color that is already the color of the front of the church will be expanded to
include the upper portion of the walls throughout the entire front of the building,
- The white color that makes up the first floor color will be refreshed,
- The white posts will be changed to a warm brown.
- The upper soffit color will be changed from a beige color to a dark charcoal color.
- The north, east and west sides of the building where there are no storefronts will be
painted to be the green color on the central portion with the high roof and white for each
side portion with the lower roof.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves a Building, Site, and
Operation (BSO) Plan amendment for Lakepoint Church located at S63 W13694 Janesville Road /
Tax Key No. 2162.997.001.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The entire building must be painted at the same time seamlessly.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That if parking ever becomes an issue whether it is related to the
overall capacity or multiple uses occurring at the same time or even a single use at building capacity,
that all uses scheduled after that incident will be on hold until the petitioner can apply for Plan
Commission review of a new parking plan/capacity breakdown to be presented by the petitioner.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That failure to comply with the terms of this resolution and the
approved site plans shall result in the issuance of fines of $124 per day per violation, the initiation of
legal action, or both.
