St. Gertrude's CFD amendment

Description

Request to amend the 2007 CFD to add seven homes for clergy families and waive paving of the clay Lake Unity Nursery Road; tabled to November 4 after the board questioned whether permanent family residences fit church-retreat zoning.

Impact summary

Neighbors report years of after-hours noise and speeding traffic; the existing 2007 ordinance remains in effect so current operations continue while the applicants revise the plan.
