Request The Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake, represented by Anthony Mangum, is

requesting a Special Exception for an alternative parking approval at 734 and 740 South

700 East in order to meet the future parking requirements of a proposed building

addition. Parking demand peeks on Friday afternoons for weekly prayer. To alleviate

parking issues at that time, the applicant is proposing a parking plan that includes; a

shuttle agreement with Valley Shuttle, van pool program, parking space auction, and an

awareness program to educate members of the convenience of walking or using public

transportation. The Planning Commission has final decision making authority for Special

Exceptions.

Recommendation Based on the findings listed in the staff report, it is the Planning Staff’s opinion that

overall the project generally meets the applicable standards and therefore, recommends

the Planning Commission approve the request

Potential Motions Consistent with Staff Report Recommendation: Based on the findings listed in the

staff report, testimony and plans presented, I move that the Planning Commission grant

the Special Exception to approve an alternative parking requirement for the properties

located at 734 and 740 South 700 East with the following conditions:

1- A cross-access and cross-drainage agreement must be recorded against the two

properties for vehicular ingress/egress.

2- A mitigation strategy for addressing any negative impacts to adjoining properties

must be provided and approved by staff prior to the issuance of building permits

for the proposed addition.

Not Consistent with Staff Report Recommendation: Based on the testimony, plans

presented and the following findings, I move that the Planning Commission deny the

Special Exception request for an alternative parking requirement located at 734 and 740

South 700 East.

The Planning Commission shall make findings on the Special Exception standards as

listed below:

A. The proposal will be in compliance with ordinance and district purposes;

B. The proposal will not diminish or impair neighboring property values;

C. The proposal will not have a material adverse effect upon the character of the area

or the public health safety and general welfare;

D. The proposal will be compatible with development of surrounding property;


2

E. The proposed use and development will not result in the destruction, loss or damage

of natural, scenic or historic features of significant importance;

F. The proposed use and development will not cause material air, water, soil or noise

pollution or other types of pollution.

G. The proposed use and development complies with all additional standards imposed

on it pursuant to the zoning ordinance.

Background

Project Description

The Islamic Society of Great Salt Lake is preparing to construct a 1,200 square foot addition to their existing

mosque at 740 South 700 East in order to provide more prayer space. This addition will extend into the existing

parking area and result in a need for more on-site parking then is available based on Salt Lake City’s Zoning

Ordinance. The mosque has unique parking demands. It is open for general use during the week but typically

only serves a handful of members except for the Friday afternoon prayer service from approximately 1:00-2:30

pm when it is at full capacity. Their alternative parking requirement request is intended to alleviate issues

during this period.

The applicant has provided a parking study that states only 20-25% of members attending services use their

own transportation and require parking. The remainder consists of students and refugees within the

neighborhood who walk to services (55-65%) and those who use public transportation (5-10%).


4

The proposed plan includes the following:

- A shuttle agreement with Valley Shuttle for Friday afternoons.

- The use of the Society’s van to transport worshipers to and from the mosque.

- An auction where on-site parking is awarded to members for Friday services.

- An awareness program where the benefits of walking and the availability of public transportation

options is stressed.

Comments

Public Comments

The proposed Alternate Parking Requirement was presented at a Community Open House held on March 15th

,

2012. Only one resident commented with a vote of support for the proposal. Virginia Walton, owner of one of

the properties called the Planning Division for further information. Her primary concern was ensuring no

historic homes would be demolished. In general, she felt the mosque was a good neighbor and supported their

plans. Sarah Jackson, an owner of commercial properties north of the mosque also called and mentioned that

worshippers have been using her parking lots for many years on Friday afternoons. She expressed concern that

the proposed plan would go far enough in eliminating this issue.

Transportation Division Comments

Barry Walsh of the Transportation Division reviewed the request and responded on March 6th

, 2012. (Please see

attachment D) His analysis is based on calculating parking for the entire use. Since the previous site plan and

parking were approved through a Conditional Use process in 2005, this request is designed only to address

additional parking needs created by the future building addition. In general, the Transportation Division is

supportive of the alternative parking request.

Analysis and Findings

Options

Failure to grant this Alternative Parking Requirement would force the Islamic Society to either seek another

location for services, or attempt to expand onto adjoining lots. Worshippers could also attend services at other

mosques located around the Salt Lake Valley, however this would present difficulties as many are either

refugees or students and seldom have access to personal vehicles.

Alternative Parking Findings General Criteria: The standards of review for a special exception are set forth in Section 21A.52.060 of the Salt Lake City Zoning

Ordinance. The standards are as follows:

Standard A. Compliance With Ordinance And District Purposes: The proposed use and development

will be in harmony with the general and specific purposes for which this title was enacted and for which

the regulations of the district were established.

Analysis: The mosque has been in operation at this location for many years. The purpose of the RMF-30

Residential District is to provide an environment suitable for varied housing types. Places of worship are listed


5

as Conditional Uses in the zone. Based upon the parking study provided, the only period of time where parking

is an issue is during the Friday afternoon services. If the plan is successful, there should be even less of an

impact on the neighborhood than currently exists.

Findings: The proposal complies with this standard.

Standard B. No Substantial Impairment of Property Value: The proposed use and development will not

substantially diminish or impair the value of the property within the neighborhood in which it is located.

Analysis: As stated earlier, the mosque has unique operating hours where they are at full capacity only on

Friday Afternoons. In general, having places of worship located in or near residential uses is considered an

asset.

Findings: An alternate parking arrangement to address potential increases in parking demand should result in

no decrease in neighborhood property values. The proposal complies with this standard.

Standard C. No Undue Adverse Impact: The proposed use and development will not have a material

adverse effect upon the character of the area or the public health, safety and general welfare.

Analysis: Since the mosque will only be at capacity on Friday afternoons and does not normally fully utilize the

parking currently provided, approval of an alternative plan to address peak demand should not negatively

impact the character or welfare of the area.


Standard D. Compatible with Surrounding Development: The proposed special exception will be

constructed, arranged and operated so as to be compatible with the use and development of neighboring

property in accordance with the applicable district regulations.

Analysis: The mosque has already obtained Conditional Use approval to operate at this location. Based upon

the parking study provided, only 20 to 25% of members drive to services. The van and shuttle services would

provide an economical means for these members to attend the Friday services without driving.

Findings: The shuttle and van services provided on Friday afternoons will decrease the number of vehicles in

the neighborhood during this critical time. The proposal complies with this standard.

Standard E. No Destruction of Significant Features: The proposed use and development will not result in

the destruction, loss or damage of natural, scenic or historic features of significant importance.

Analysis: This request does not involve any physical changes to the property or surrounding areas.


Standard F. No Material Pollution of Environment: The proposed use and development will not cause

material air, water, soil or noise pollution or other types of pollution.

Analysis: Using a van and a shuttle service will actually decrease the amount of vehicle pollutants as compared

to requiring the mosque to simply provide additional hard surfacing and encourage more vehicle trips to and

from services.


6


Standard G. Compliance with Standards: The proposed use and development complies with all

additional standards imposed on it pursuant to Section 21A.52.100 of this Chapter.

Analysis: In 2005, the Islamic Society received approval through the Planning Commission for a Conditional

Use to expand their place of worship to the adjoining property at 734 South 700 East. This was approved with

eight conditions. One of these conditions has not yet been accomplished. A cross-access and cross-drainage

agreement was to be recorded between the mosque and the property to the north. This is listed as a condition of

approval for this Special Exception.

Findings: Recoding the required cross-access and cross-drainage agreement is listed as a condition of approval.

The proposal complies with this standard.

Specific Criteria for Alternative Parking: Standard A. That the proposed parking plan will satisfy the anticipated parking demand for the use up

to the maximum number specified in table 21A.44.060F, “Schedule of Minimum Off Street Parking

Requirements, of this chapter;

Analysis: The mosque and parking areas were approved through the Conditional Use process in 2005; therefore

the parking requirement for the existing space is considered conforming. For places of worship, the zoning

ordinance requires one parking space for each five seats (or in this case, for each five prayer locations). The

Parking Plan calculates that the building addition will provide room for 65 members. This results in the need for

13 additional parking spaces in order to meet minimum requirements. Since only 20-25% of members drive to

service, a total of only four parking stalls would be needed to handle the increase if no alternate transportation

options were provided. The shuttle service agreement will provide capacity for 116 members. This, coupled

with the privately owned van should more than address the minimum requirements.


Standard B. That the proposed parking plan does not have a material adverse impact on adjacent or

neighboring properties;

Analysis: The proposal does not entail any changes in the use of land that could negatively impact the

neighboring properties. Shuttle and van services to the mosque should result in a decrease in vehicles in and

around the neighborhood.


Standard C. That the proposed parking plan includes mitigation strategies for any potential impact on

adjacent or neighboring properties;

Analysis: The parking plan provided does not contain any mitigating strategy for addressing potential impacts

to adjacent neighboring properties. It is recommended that one be provided and approved by staff prior to the

issuance of any building permits for the proposed addition.


7

Findings: Providing a mitigation strategy for addressing potential impacts to the neighboring properties is listed

as a condition of approval. With this requirement in place, the proposal will comply with this standard.

Standard D. That the proposed alternative parking requirement is consistent with applicable city master

plans and is in the best interest of the city.

Analysis: The Central Community Master Plan’s vision for a livable community lists religious facilities located

within the community as a source of social and community activity. Allowing the mosque to expand services at

their current location while mitigating negative impacts to neighboring properties will be in keeping with this

vision.

Executive Summary

ObjectiveThe Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake is seeking to add prayer space for up to 100 additional members to the Al-Noor

Masjid in Salt Lake City, Ut. The purpose of this report is to analyze the impact of the addition on parking, and to

formulate a plan to accommodate the increase in parking demand. The facility is located at 740 South 700 East and this

analysis evaluates the parking impacts during its peak usage which is the congregations’ weekly prayer services held

Friday from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM. Because there is no opportunity to increase parking on the project site, an alternative

plan must be developed.

SolutionThe Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake has developed several different programs to reduce the parking demand at the

Al-Noor Masjid. This includes encouraging congregation members to walk, utilize public transit, and an agreement with

Valley Shuttle, Inc. to provide shuttle services to and from the Masjid for up to 100 congregation members every Friday

afternoon.

Alternative Parking Plan: Van Pool 1



Project SummaryThe existing Al-Noor Masjid is 2,282 SF (Square Feet) building on a 0.18 acre lot at 740 South 700 East, Salt Lake City,

Ut. It is zoned RMF-30 for which place of worship is a conditional use. The prayer area is 1,351 SF and is free of pews

and other furniture. Each worshiper kneels or sits during the service on the carpeted floor made of stripes that

designates sitting space and circulation space or aisles. At 9 SF per occupant the current occupant load is 150

worshipers. The society wants to add approximately 1,200 SF for additional worship space, and reconfiguration of the

restrooms and other support spaces. The design team expects to add worship space for an additional 60 to 100

worshippers. See area schedule and occupancy calculations below.

The society also owns the adjacent property to the north at 734 South 700 East that includes a a house that is used as

“Sunday School” classrooms per the conditional use Petition No. 410-769 from 2005. The classrooms are used during

Friday prayer and on Sundays to teach school age children. There home is 1,088 SF with 536 SF of it being used as

classrooms. The parking lot is shared between both buildings.

The current site does not allow for any additional parking to be added on the property so the society is seeking to meet

the city’s requirements through alternative means. Because the existing number of parking spaces have been

“grandfathered-in” and are legal for the current use, additional parking or alternative parking measures will will only need

to be provided for the increase between existing and proposed required parking as calculated above.

Projected Parking DemandAs seen in table 21A.44.060E of the city ordinances, the city acknowledges that places of worship do not utilize100% of

their required parking throughout the week. Due to cultural differences, the weekly use distribution of the Al-Noor Masjid

is different than other places of worship that might be more common in Salt Lake City. The masjid is open for general

use during daylight hours, but typically does not serve more than 5-10 members except during the Friday prayer services

from 1:00 to 2:30 pm when it is at full capacity.

The Islamic Society has provided an estimate on the make up of its congregation according to how they travel to the

Masjid for Friday services. It is important to note that that most of the worshippers at the Friday congregation are



students from the University of Utah, and people who live in the vicinity of the mosque at a walk-able distance. People

who drove to mosque worked in downtown or some research parks in the vicinity. Generally, the members of the

society that have the means to drive to their Friday worship service choose to attend the larger congregation at the

Khadeeja Masjid in West Valley City.

The mosque members who attend the Al-Noor Masjid regularly can be divided in to four categories as follows:

• Students who use public transportation and/or live within 1/4th of a mile radius: 30-35 %

• Refugees population who live within 1/4th of a mile radius: 25-30 %

• Visitors who uses taxi cab or bus services while traveling in town: 5-10 %

• Business and other locals who use their own transportation and need parking:20-25 %

The society believes the actual demand for parking spaces will be less than increased parking required by the city

ordinances. Nevertheless, the society plans to meet the city’s requirements through ordinance 21A.44.030 Alternative

Parking Requirements.

Alternative Parking PlanThe Islamic Society plans to address the shortage of parking in several different ways.

Awareness ProgramKeeping in view the relatively high share of members already walking or using public transit, the society has begun and is

committed reminding the members of the Friday congregation of the benefits of not driving to the mosque on a

continuous basis.

Existing Parking - Permit ProgramThe Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake plans to institute a parking permit system for the existing parking at the mosque.

Signs would be posted stating, “PARKING ON FRIDAYS 12 TO 3 PM BY PERMIT ONLY. VIOLATORS WILL BE TOWED

AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE”. As a fundraising program, the society would auction off yearly parking permits for use

during the stated hours.

Van Pool ProgramCurrently the society owns one 14 passenger van and has enlisted volunteer drivers to shuttle congregation members to

prayer services for Friday prayer services. In addition, the Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake has come to an

agreement with Valley Shuttle, Inc. to provide continuous shuttle services for up to 75 congregation members for the

Friday afternoon services. Company information and total passenger capacity for Valley Shuttle. Inc is listed below:

SummaryThe Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake is an active part of the community in Salt lake City. They strive to support their

membership and to reach out to the community. The influx of refugees and the general increase of followers of Islam into

Salt Lake City has increased the demands on the Al-Noor Masjid, which is why the society seeks to add on to the

building. They acknowledge this will put additional parking demand on the site, but they would like to submit that the

unique way and schedule that the masjid is used is worthy of a special consideration by Salt Lake City.
