Ron,
In behalf of Dan McAllister, Building Committee Chairman, Jim Marmion, Business Administrator, and
myself, I want to thank you and Herb for your time and input regarding the Grace Lutheran Church
property Our discussions proved very helpful. Following our meeting, DAPA was directed by the church
to move forward with a revised Site Plan Concept that will incorporate the ideas we discussed during our
meeting, specifically
1) Relocate parking structure to the east side of the church property.
2) Maintain both existing driveways on Edinger Avenue
3) Eastern most driveway on Edinger Ave. to provide entry access to new parking structure
4) Provide surface parking along west and north sides of church property.
Based on the above, the revised site plan concept will be based on a building setback requirment of 20 FT
along the west side yard and rear yard (both adjacent to residential uses) We are, however, proposing a
10 FT building setback (20 FT is required) along the east side yard adjacent to existing commercial uses.
We understand the east side yard condition as proposed will require a variance. With respect to the front
yard setback along Edinger Avenue, would you please confirm the minimum building setback
requirement as required by zoning..
Following Client review of the revised site plan concept, DAPA will prepare a revised Concept Package to
be used for further meetings / discussions with City Staff (to be arranged) Once again, thank you for your
time and assistance.
Best regards,

GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH
Of Huntington Beach
Initial Plan Zoning Review No. 03-18
Master Plan Narrative
July 21, 2003
Grace Lutheran Church of Huntington Beach is located northwest of the intersection of Edinger
Avenue and Golden West Street at 2931 Edinger Avenue, Huntington Beach, California. The
church property is approximately 3. 76 acres. Vehicular access and egress to Grace Lutheran
Church (GLC) is provided from two existing driveways located along Edinger Avenue at the
southwest and southeast corners of the property. On-site parking is located along the west, north
and east sides of the property.
Church ministries and activities are currently located in existing 1 and 2-story buildings. The
existing 1-story buildings include the Sanctuary, Hope Hall and Faith Hall. Additional 2-story
buildings include Joy Hall and Grace Hall. In addition, GLC utilizes two portable classrooms and
several small metal storage/maintenance structures. A total of 25,301 square feet is provided in
the existing church buildings and structures. After a thorough needs assessment by the church, it
has been determined that most of GLC's existing buildings provide inadequate space, services
and amenities needed to support ongoing and future church ministries and associated activities.
In response, Grace Lutheran Church has embarked upon a major redevelopment of its property.
The vision for the church property is intended to provide Grace Lutheran Church with a platform
for community outreach serving the surrounding communities of Huntington Beach, California. A
Master Plan Package dated July 21, 2003, illustrates a phased redevelopment of the property and

construction of a new church complex comprised of three buildings (3-stories each) as well as a
new Worship Center. All existing buildings and structures will be replaced.
The Master Plan also provides circulation improvements that incorporate the use of the existing
driveway located at the southwest corner of the property (on Edinger Avenue) as well as a new
driveway on Breeland Drive located west of Golden West Street. The other existing driveway
located at the southeast corner of the property (on Edinger Avenue) would be removed. The
proposed circulation plan and driveways include interior roadways with surface parking. In
addition, a 2-level parking structure is proposed at the north end of the property. The parking
structure would be set back 10-foot from side and rear yards and a special landscape buffer
would be provided along the property line facing residences.
An important objective reflected in the Master Plan is the opportunity to create a pedestrian
friendly campus setting comprised of patios, courtyards and other outdoor areas. The phased
construction of new buildings provides for an outdoor central courtyard that provides primary
pedestrian access to all of the buildings. Outside stairways, balconies and corridors overlook
courtyard areas and reinforce an interactive and inviting social setting.
A total of 96,691 square feet (excluding the parking structure) is provided in the proposed building
complex. In addition, a total of 287 parking spaces is provided.

To do it right, the church will have to step out of the box

community around it
What does "community" mean to the church? People,
families, and individuals are on the go Many of us have

Architectural Design:
Scripting & Storytelling
To achieve successful church environments, it is
best to look at what I like to describe as the
"script" and the "storytelling "
A "script" is a guideline for developing ministry,
which may also transform the building's design. In
this context, design is not a noun (solid and decora-
tive), as is often the case in architecture. Rather, it is
a verb (active and creative), shaping an environment,
which invites dialogue and participation And a
scripted environment makes for genial, friendly
places where communities gather for worship,
fellowship, and celebration.
Today, successful churches are exploring new
architectural scripts Church campuses are evolving
into recreation and entertainment environments with
worship and support facilities appealing to the
surrounding communities. A good "script" presents
the "church experience" in a way that relates to
peoples' lives and spiritual sensibilities This implies
a need for great diversity of activities and facilities
The "scripting" of a church environment might
include any of the following- Senior housing; confer-
ence and banquet center; food court and coffee
house; church store; youth recreation center; coun-
seling , prayer, and crisis center; elementary and
secondary schools, sports park; community theater;
worship center and chapel, and memorial garden. A
key ingredient is a social infrastructure, which invites
and induces fellowship in many forms: indoor and
outdoor, formal and informal, expansive yet intimate.
Lately, themed design or "storytelling" has also
become a common component in scripting your
design. In the hands of a talented design team, a sense
of place can be created through a unique environmen-
tal theme. Shopping centers, restaurants, theme parks,
• Do you have the right "script" for your church
and its mission?
• What story are you telling?
• Consider conducting informal workshops for
developing a "script" that works for you.
to name a few, are creating themed environments,
which attract customers and keep them there longer
Walt Disney encouraged his design team to "always tell
them (the guest) a story when you entertain, enlighten
or feed them " His vision transformed the theme park
into an entirely new form of family entertainment.
Successful churches are not blind to this credo The
careful selection and combination of design themes can
result in a range of powerful images; and, hence,
identity. A dedicated or themed environment is a
powerful tool that has the effect of immersing the guest
into a special place-what planners like to call PTB's
(places to be)
The scripting and storytelling approach to church
campus development offers a better, more dynamic
approach to mission and outreach The end game is
more than just good design, it may promise better
ministry.4

hether downtown or
in
master-planned
communities, successful churches are
exploring new lifestyle settings
A primary objective is to create a unique environ-
ment to attract and nurture a community of believers
whose spiritual-growth needs may not have been
met in traditional church settings. A key concept is to
present the "church experience" in a way that relates
to peoples' real lives. This implies a need for facili-
ties that are not only conducive to social interaction,
but also offer a diversity of activities
In an effort to touch the lives of young people,
churches are often creating less structured environ-
ments. In these areas,
young people can "hang"
with friends and interact
in a safe and appealing
setting.
In East Central Indiana,
First Church of God has
created just such an
environment. Called "The
Living Room," it provides The Living Room
live music, great food, gourmet coffee, and a smoke-
free and alcohol-free atmosphere for 18 years and
older The Living Room operates in a converted
second-floor space located in an early 19th Century,
commercial building in the heart of downtown Muncie
next to Ball State University. In this warm and welcom-
ing environment, young adults can form engaging
relationships with mentors as well as peers.

"The Crossing"-a multidimensional community
youth center containing a sports and fitness center,
classrooms and lounges, arts and learning center, a
youth cafe and nightclub-and more. It is a place
where young people can become involved in media
productions, new technology, youth crisis counsel-
ing, a youth hot-line, and support groups. According
to Pastor Paul Sorenson, "The Crossing provides an
exciting, appealing environment intended to stir a
passionate response in young people."
Both The Living Room and The Crossing serve as
lifestyle models for meeting the needs of young people.
One does so through the doors of recycled commercial
space; the other casts a vision built upon the success of
its existing programs. In both places, a warm and
caring environment is creating a new reality to reach
young people with Jesus' unlimited love. +

The Church
A Mission-Driven Enterprise
What do you get when you blend the qualities
of an auto showroom, a Cineplex stadium-
styled theater, and a passion for mission? You
get a mission-driven enterprise called Point of Grace
Church where an adventurous spirit and entrepreneur-
ial ingenuity are creating a new church model.
In the western suburbs of Des Moines, Iowa, Point of
Grace is planning to build a large "warehouse" ministry
lab which will contain a 700-seat theater with cush-
ioned chairs on retractable platforms, equipped with
concert sound and lighting equipment, complete with
banks of computer-controlled lights They've also
scheduled a sound and video production studio, and
plenty of space for children's and student ministries
Families and guests arriving at the "warehouse" will
first enter a hospitality center-The Point Cafe-
containing a coffee and juice bar, the ChurchWorks
Store, and an indoor garden patio, complete with
fireplace and lounge. The hospitality center will be a
highly efficient and socially interactive area with
generous circulation, visible steel roof decking and
trusses, open mechanical HVAC systems, suspended flat
screen video monitors, and maximum use of glass.
Parking will be abundant and convenient.
The Point of Grace model reflects a transformation
which is occurring in the church. Successful churches
are exploring new formulas which embrace the idea of
a mission-driven enterprise Churches like Point of
Grace are building environments that are sometimes
secular and more familiar to people. In doing so, Point
of Grace is seeking an approach which connects its
ministry to the nature and culture of its community. It is
a new-town, new-church model inviting and challeng-
ing others. Check out their website at

Flexible Building as Missions
Incubators
The "mission incubator" is
an example of an old idea
taking new form. Since the
1970s, business incubators have
been developed by state and
local governments These public
and quasi-public agencies hoped
to achieve business expansion
and diversification by aiding new
and growing firms Business
incubators include business
consulting, support of business
councils, economic development
corporations, minority enterprise
promotion, venture capital, and
technology transfer assistance
The "mission incubator"-like its
industrial counterpart-is a
simple and flexible building. The
church is the sponsoring agent
and God's people are the human
resource
This observation was rein-
forced during a planning work-
shop at Calvary Chapel, Fort
Lauderdale, Florida Founded in
1991, Calvary Chapel was soon
worshipping in a 1,000-seat
industrial building As the church
grew, its members bought
surrounding industrial buildings
and remodeled them to house
new ministries The church
eventually created a non-profit
construction firm-Gateway
Properties, Inc.-which con-
structed the church's improve-
ments Calvary Chapel soon
transformed a business park into
a mission field with over 200,000
square feet on eighteen acres.
Their success pointed them to
something even bigger.
In 1996, Calvary
Chapel purchased a 75-
acre industrial property
with two, 2-story
buildings encompass-
ing a total of 300,000
square feet of space
Church ministries
continued to flourish as
the Project Team built
parking, roadway, and
landscape improve-
ments The project now
includes a 3,700-seat
sanctuary, an 800-seat
cafeteria, a Christian
school, a large
bookstore, and
various ministry
spaces
Presently, I am
working with a
local architect and
the Calvary
Chapel Project
Team to prepare a
0
long-range master site
plan, which will more
than double its build-
ing space. After sixteen
years of building ministries in a
variety of existing industrial
buildings, Calvary Chapel is now
ready to embark on a long-range
development program for a
community campus
The use of flexible, adaptable
buildings as mission incubators
reminds us what designing for
mission is all about Sometimes

The Land Is to Be
Loved and Respected
"There were those who believed-
and still are those who believe-that
fountains, waterfalls, magnificent
flower gardens, and sweeping lawns
were extravagant, a waste of money.
But money isn't the issue. It never is.
The issue is the well-being of the
human psyche and the human soul.
Nature is a beautiful gift of God."
Robert H. Schuller
from his new book My Journey.
P eople engaged in the activities
of a church depend on a social
infrastructure to enrich their
daily lives and their sense of iden-
tity This social infrastructure is
accommodated by an environment
comprised of a network of open
space-the total figure of space in
between structures-along with
buildings and landscape that to-
gether define the scale, character,
and social nature of a church
Since church campuses are usually
constructed in phases through
individual projects, the whole is often
affected every time physical change
takes place Many times. building
committees and church staff, feeling
pressured by program needs, schedul-
ing demands, and budget limitations,
succumb to decision-making that can
result in the random placement of
buildings and a more disconnected
open space What is needed is a
judicious design
Interconnected Open
Space Depends on
These Components -
Patio - a room-sized space
for small groups, not more
than 20 feet on one side
and often an outdoor
extension of a single room.
Courtyard - a space for
fellowship not more than
100 feet on one side,
enclosed within a building
and intended for use by a
variety of groups.
Quadrangle - a distinct
space for special events not
more than 400 feet on one
side and shared by many
church buildings.
Lawn or Green - a space
proportional to the scale of
the overall campus. This
becomes the campus' ritual
and symbolic center.
Field - a clearing dimen-
sioned to accommodate
recreational activities and
typically located on the
edge of a church campus.

Open space and landscape
treatment can create a successful
church campus. But, open space is
often devalued when used as an
afterthought.
Why is open space and landscape
important to churches as they go
about the business of building
mission? Churches like other land-
owners have the responsibility to
use their property to protect its
natural value and not infringe upon
its neighbors In addition, the church
has a special obligation to model
respect and conservation to God's
creation
Prayer walks through landscaped
gardens, small groups meeting in the
intimacy of furnished patios, the
fellowship found in courtyard
gatherings, seasonal events occur-
ring in formal quadrangles, the
monumentality of lawns, and the
informality of fields filled with sport
enthusiasts are each different aspects
of a planned landscape
As we adapt the land to meet our
mission-dnven purposes, let us strive
to be stewards of our land as well as
conservators of our hentage.

Dear Dan:
Thank you for presenting your project before the Development Assistance Committee (DAC). The
following are comments and recommendations from the Planning Department based on a preliminary
review of the proposed Grace Lutheran Church master plan:
1. The project requires Planning Commission approval of a Conditional Use Permit and Environmental
Assessment, as well as Design Review Board action.
2. The project must conform to the General Plan goals, policies, and objectives provided to you at the
DAC meeting.
3. A single two-way driveway should be provided in lieu of the two proposed with one-way in and one-
way out.
4. The parking structure should be located towards the adjacent commercial properties to the east and
away from the abutting residences.
5. A traffic and parking study as well as a noise study indicating how the project complies with the
City's Noise Ordinance (Chapter 8.40) are required to be submitted with the entitlement application.
6. Indicate on the plans any proposed outdoor activity and play areas.
7. Window locations should be sensitive to maintaining the privacy of the adjacent residences.
8. A community meeting should be conducted prior to application to solicit input from area residents
and property owners.
Additional comments and concerns are likely to be identified upon submittal of an entitlement
application. If you need further assistance, please contact me at (714) 536-5624.

parking spaces, and drop off areas This may also affect fire's requirement of backing up and water's loop system

I took the master plan to project review and got several comments including a couple pertaining to access and
circulation. Planning is recommending one driveway only off the west end away from the intersection. The parking
structure should be relocated to the east side next to the commercial sites. Do you have any strong feelings about
this?

Dear Dan:
Thank you for presenting your project before the Development Assistance Committee (DAC). The
following are comments and recommendations from the Planning Department based on a preliminary
review of the proposed Grace Lutheran Church master plan:
1. The project requires Planning Commission approval of a Conditional Use Permit, Design Review
Board action, and Environmental Assessment.
2. The project must conform to the General Plan goals, policies, and objectives provided to you at the
DAC meeting.
3. A single two-way driveway should be provided in lieu of the two proposed with one-way in and one-
way out.
4. The parking structure should be located towards the adjacent commercial properties to the east and
away from the abutting residences.
5. A traffic and parking study as well as a noise study indicating how the project complies with the
City's Noise Ordinance (Chapter 8.40) are required to be submitted with the entitlement application.
6. Indicate on the plans any proposed outdoor activity and play areas.
7. Window locations should be sensitive to maintaining the privacy of the adjacent residences.
8. A community meeting should be conducted prior to application to solicit input from area residents
and property owners.
Additional comments and concerns are likely to be identified upon submittal of an entitlement
application . If you need further assistance , please contact me at (714) 536-5624.
Sincerely,
Ricky Ramos,
Associate Planner
