Summary Explanation and Background
Jamaat Ul Muttaqeen has submitted a miscellaneous application for the additions to the Muttaqeen Mosque, located at 1000 SW 196th Avenue.
The applicant requests the following additions as part of this application:
Phase 1
1. The addition of a patio with covered canopy 13’-2” (highest point) covered patio to be placed in a grassed area between the existing church sanctuary and multipurpose building. The proposed covered patio roof structure will be constructed in two phases.
§ Phase 1 will be a patio addition with a 1,984 square foot covered area as shown on the plan.
The covered roof structure will be painted the following colors:
§ Roof Supports -Cobble Brown (SW 198-C6)
§ Main Body - Double Latte (SW 204-C4)
§ Roof - Derbyshire (SW 152-C7)
The proposed patio roof will contain solar panels which will power the underlying canopy lights. The applicant proposes to add synthetic turf over the proposed patio area.
2. The addition of a knee wall with fence and columns (maximum 6 feet high) along the east property line. The wall will include metal swing gates at the entry into the mosque.
The knee wall, fence and gates will be painted the following colors:
§ Knee Wall / Columns - Original White (SW 274-C6)
§ Aluminum Picket - Smart White (SW 274-C5)
The proposed swing gates will be open during specific hours as indicated on the plan.
Emergency vehicle access has been approved by the Fire Department. A Coco plum hedge will be planted parallel to the proposed knee wall to provide additional screening.
3. Modification of handicapped parking with accessible route at the north and west of the existing multipurpose building to meet ADA requirements.
Phase 2
§ A 1,464 covered canopy extension of phase 1*.
* The existing plat note on the property restricts ultimate development of the church to allow only the phase 1 canopy addition. It is the intent of the mosque to apply for a plat note amendment which would allow phase 2 to be built. City Commission approval and recordation of the revised plat note would be required prior to issuance of the canopy addition on phase 2.
This plan has been reviewed by staff and was found to meet all code requirements therefore staff recommends approval.
Staff Recommendation: Approval, subject to recordation of amended plat note, consistent with ultimate development, prior to issuance of a building permit for phase 2 of the project.
