Commission agrees to leave church house zoning as-is while allowing a seven‑year lease to local business owner
Summary
Commissioners reviewed a proposal for a seven‑year lease of the house owned by a church to Holly Rousch of Simply Sisters, noted the property is zoned public institutional and that inspections are required, and voted to leave the property as-is.
The commission reviewed a proposal that would allow the house owned by the church to be leased for seven years to Holly Rousch, owner of Simply Sisters. Commissioners noted the building is currently zoned public institutional, and staff said a conditional use permit (C.U.P.) is not technically required unless the commission determines one should be required. The church would retain ownership while Rousch would hold the lease and must complete county and city inspections before occupancy.
Commissioner Jim Hemmesch moved that the commission "leave the house by the church as is," Jon Person seconded the motion, and the motion passed. The minutes do not record a formal roll-call vote or further conditions attached to the approval.
No amendments or additional permitting requirements were recorded at the meeting. The matter was closed with the commission’s decision; staff and the property owner will undertake the required inspections before lease execution.
