SUBJECT: PUD AMENDMENT TO RESTRICT THE CAPACITY OF THE CROSSING CHURCH
TO NOT MORE THAN 200 PEOPLE PER EVENT AT THE LOCATION AT LOT 1, BLOCK 1 OF THE
OUTLETS AT ALBERTVILLE SECOND ADDITION
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following motions:
MOTION to adopt Resolution Number 2019-022 entitled RESOLUTION APPROVING A
PUD AMENDMENT RESTRICTING THE CAPACITY OF THE CROSSING CHURCH TO
NO MORE THAN 200 PEOPLE FOR ANY SINGLE EVENT ON LOT 1 BLOCK 1 OUTLETS
OF ABERTVILLE SECOND ADDITION LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY OF
ALBERTVILLE
BACKGROUND:
The Albertville City Council approved the Crossing Church to locate within the Outlet Mall
Promenade in January, 2019 with a potential capacity of 0300 people. The Church has
discovered that assembly uses have a capacity of greater than 200 people have more stringent
building and fire code standards that they cannot address. To limit their expenses in the Outlet
Mall location the Outlet Mall and the Church have requested that the City formally reduce their
capacity restriction to not more than 200 people per single event.
Key Issues:
• The reduced capacity number will provide the church with some relief from building and
fire code considerations.
• Smaller event size will likely result in more event scheduling (services) as the church
grows.
• The smaller events will produce less traffic, which was a concern in the consideration of
the original church use application.
• Staff finds that the reduction in event size will reduce potential traffic and land use issues.
• With the requested change the property and building shall still be require to meet all the
conditions of the original approval.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: The request is considered a minor change not requiring
planning commission consideration. The council will determine if the change is appropriate.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There are no significant financial issues related to the
PUD Amendment.
