HomeMy WebLinkAbout2006 06 15 Other Handout Flyer Board of Adjustment Meeting - June 15,2006 This flyer was introduced into the Record by Pastor Glenn Riggs. The Attached flyer was posted on the mailboxes of some residents in the Ranchlands. PROTECT HAYES ROAD AND THE RANCHLANDS FROM STARLIGHT BAPTIST CHURCH EXPANSION Many of you may not be aware of the plan to expand the Starlight Baptist Church from its existing 400-seat structure to include an additional 30,167 SF, fifty-foot high, 783- seat worship center. That's a total of 1183 seats - almost TRIPLE its present capacity. Traffic on Hayes Road is expected to increase by 586 cars (241 trips PER HOUR at peak times) on Wednesdays, Sundays, and any other days when there are church functions. This will affect other roads, too, as worshippers come from lake Drive and Seminola onto Fisher, Edgemon, Tradewinds, Panama, Bahama and Shoreline. The current plan calls for 119 parking places. Spillover parking for the balance of the 1183 worshippers during full-capacity events will end up on Hayes and Bahama Roads. While we support the growth of this church, we oppose its growth in our neighborhood. Let's remember that The Ranchlands is a low-density, residential neighborhood "dedicated to country living," and there are plenty of convenient commercial properties available in Winter Springs to accommodate the growth of this church. Help protect our quality of life and property values.
