SUMMARY FACTS:
USE-ON-APPEAL #191210-01
PETITIONER: Riverside Presbyterian Church
PROPERTY OWNER: Dianne Avant
SUBJECT SITE: Vacant Land east of 700 Fairview Ave
REQUEST: Use-On-Appeal/ Church Use
CURRENT ZONING: R-2, Single-Family Residential
PARCEL ID: Autauga: 19021020120010000
PROPERTY SIZE: 12 +/- acres
FUTURE LAND-USE MAP: Low Density-Residential

DEVELOPEMNT STATUS & HISTORY:

Conditions of Previous Approval: N/A
ANAYALIS:
Analysis. Below is the staff assessment of the three general question applicable to uses-on-appeal:
1. Is the proposed church an allowable use-on-appeal, and not a prohibited use in a R-2
district?
The requested use is an allowable use-on-appeal. It is NOT a prohibited use in an R-2
district.
2. Is development of the proposed church at Fairview Ave in the public interest? Does the
proposed development meet the spirit of the City of Prattville Zoning Ordinance?
At present, the property is an undeveloped pasture land that consists of 12 +/- acres with
an estimated 420’ of frontage along Fairview Ave (AL 14). It shall be noted that any future

CITY OF PRATTVILLE
Board of Zoning Adjustment
Planning Department Staff Report
Use On Appeal #191210-01 Page 2
access to this site would come off of Fairview Ave, therefore approval of a new access
point would need approval from the City of Prattville Engineering Department.
Nevertheless, the zoning ordinance would require the church to follow the setbacks
required in an R-2 zoning district, and the adequate parking area required per number of
seats. The church has stated their capacity in the worship center to be 200 seats. The church
has not completed and submitted the require code analysis to support a 200 seat capacity.
However, assuming the 200 seats, city ordinance requires 50 parking spaces at minimum.
The church has stated that their anticipated off street parking will be designed to meet city
code. Furthermore, the site would require a detailed landscape plan indicating frontage,
perimeter, and foundation landscaping. For parking areas abutting a residential area, a 20’
landscaped buffer is required with sufficient plantings to reach 8’ height within a two year
period would be required. Additional interior lot landscape islands will be required for a
parking area with 40 or more spaces.
3.Does the proposed church use cause substantial adverse impact to adjacent or nearby
properties or uses?
The proposed use of a church on the vacant 12 +/- acre site can only be determined by a
detailed engineered site plan for a further analysis of impact to adjacent properties. A storm
water management plan with areas of detention/retention would be required to mitigate
storm water under the City of Prattville’s MS4 storm water management policies. Moreover,
additional traffic generation for a church use would be based upon the square footage of the
worship center. Church uses have peak traffic generation during service times.
PLANNING STAFF EVALUATION:
Recommendation: Approval, contingent upon proposed church meeting all the City of Prattville
development regulations & codes for Zoning/Fire/Building/Engineering & Storm
water.

STATEMENT OF HARDSHIP FROM APPLICANT:
“All Existing Structures would be Non-Conforming”.
STAFF REVIEW:
Attached within this site plan is a proposed survey for the subdividing of (2) two lots zoned R-2 Single-
Family Residential into (6) six single-family residential buildings lots. At present, the property consists of
one parcel located at the southeast corner of Main & College street consisting of (1) one single-family
residential homes and (1) accessory structures, a parcel located at the west side of college street that
consists of (2) two single-family homes on one lot, and a parcel located at the southwest corner of Main &
College street that consists of (3) single-family residential homes and (2) two accessory structures. In all,
this property would be considered as a legal non-conforming or “grandfathered use” due to the nature of
multiple single-family dwellings on both lots in a single-family zoning district.
Variance requested of 15.56’ for front setback/18.46’ width at building line & 731 Sq ft. for lot
10A (326 College Street)
Variance requested of 15.26’ for front setback, and 2.15’ & 1.47’ for side setback/ 21.97’ width at
building line & lot area of 2,670 sq. ft. for lot 9A (320 College Street)
Variance requested of 23.01’ for front setback/ 3.19’ & 2.7’ for side setback/ 26.96’ width at
building line & lot area of 1,810.1 Sq ft. for lot 2A (321 College Street)
Variance requested of 22.91’for front setback & 3.04’ for side setback/ 18.02’ width at building
line & 2,295.1 sq. ft. lot area for lot 1A (325 College Street)
Variance for accessory structure on Lot 9A & 10A of 0’ & Lot 2A & 1A of 0’.
PLANNING STAFF EVALUATION:
Recommendation: Consideration given by the board that a hardship has been presented to
allow for the subdividing of lots into non-conforming parcels within an
R-2 single-family residential zoning district. Other recommendation
would be an R-5 (Patio Garden Home Zoning Designation).
