Church project, now headed for City Council approval, is opposed by community members who believe the project is a bad fit for the neighborhood and fear traffic congestion in the area.
In the works for nearly six years, the controversial All Peoples Church project, which proposes to build a 900-seat sanctuary and two-story parking garage on a 6-acre plot of land zoned for housing near Interstate 8 and College Avenue in Del Cerro, has cleared an important hurdle.
The All Peoples Church project calls for a 54,476-square-foot church building with a 900-seat sanctuary, classrooms, staff offices and a multipurpose gym near the College Avenue off-ramp. The project includes a two-level, 71,010-square-foot parking garage with 203 spaces just north of the church building and another 153 surface spots along College Avenue. Also planned is a new intersection with a traffic signal at the church’s primary entrance.
In August, the community planning group, Navajo Community Planners, voted unanimously to deny the project’s approval. There were also comments about the safety implications associated with locating a traffic signal so close to the freeway off-ramp, as well as statements about how the majority of the congregation would be driving into the neighborhood from other parts of the city.
All Peoples Church is projected to generate an average of 280 car trips on weekdays and 1,976 trips on Sundays.
