Page 2 of 7 MDP Rezoning Application — Updated 05-2021 Vision Plan for Northside Church 3/28/2022 Northside Church, its staff, and members are excited for the prospect of continuing to pursue and fulfill the vision we eve God has given to us for the people of Wilmington and beyond. Please find below the outline and reasons for our request for a change of zoning to a Planned Development. We are a people of faith in God and belief in His plan for us, and for those who do not yet know Him, within and beyond the purview of our church located in the North side of Wilmington, North Carolina. We also believe that we are supposed to be a benefit and a blessing to the surrounding community. The reason for our request for a change in zoning status is to assure the ability to fulfill this vision. Our vision can be stated in brief as: "Helping People to Discover REAL life!" Please allow me to unpack that for you. REAL is an acronym that describes the four main areas of actionable items of our vision. It is the "A" in the acronym that produces the specific services that we will provide for our church and surrounding community which will necessitate a change in zoning. Some of these services require facilities or specific usage of the land. I will share in brief the R, E, and L of the acronym, and will expand on the "A" component of our vision, which requires the major portion of facilities and land. At Northside Church, we want to help people discover REAL Life. This REAL Life is a life that consists of four things: Relationship with Jesus; as Savior, Lord, Helper, and Friend Emancipation from destructive life patterns; Helping you to discover the limiting factors in your life as well providing a clear actionable plan to break free from these strongholds. Accessing the whole life offered in Christ; (See expanded explanation below) Leading others to REAL life; by 1) sharing your faith, 2) Serving your church, 3) Influencing the world, and 4) Impacting your community. If you would like a fuller discussion on any of these points, it would be my pleasure to sit down personally and share. The "A" refers to ACCESSING the "Whole" life that Jesus offered. In John 10:10, Jesus said that He has come to give us abundant life. Another way to understand the word abundant is "whole." Jesus came to give us a whole life. For a believer to experience the whole life Christ offers, they must grow in various areas of spiritual maturity. REAL Life Discipleship offers eight different paths that a believer may need to travel down on their journey to a whole life in Christ. These paths of personal growth contain a growth plan that helps to map out the journey. They may include specific discipleship courses, personal studies with a mentor or small group, and even activity projects to help the disciple be informed then transformed in this area of needed growth. While some paths may not seem as urgent to some believers as to others, to be certain there are several paths that need to be taken by each believer. Each of these paths will be expanded by providing purpose built facilities to accommodate each specific ministry as well as the peripheral ministries that may spawn from each. 1) Spiritual Life This path is all about one's relationship with God through faith in Jesus, but its focus is on the parts of the relationship where God is the main beneficiary and focus. The landmarks along this path include prayer, worship, obedience and giving. 2) Marital Life This path is a discovery of how marriage reflects the inseparable image of God as three in one, It reveals the incredible ways marriage is designed to be a picture of God's relationship with Himself and with the redeemed, while unpacking all of the dynamics that go into a marriage relationship. The landmarks along this path include preparing for marriage, sex and intimacy, and learning how to love each other as God loves. 3) Family Life This path teaches how to pass the Christian faith to the next generation effectively. It reminds us of two important truths: children are a gift from God, and their inheritance from us is spiritual more than anything else. The landmarks along this path include understanding and navigating through the different stages in a person's life, making the right deposits, and God's design for the roles of those in the immediate and extended family. 4) Financial Life This path focuses on how stewardship increases influence. Money is a powerful tool—for good or for bad— but it's just a tool. This path helps us understand God's design for wealth, both to bless the believer and extend the Kingdom's territory. The landmarks along this path include learning the purpose of possessions, taking control of one's finances, and how to use wealth as God intended—to bless the believer and enlarge His spiritual territory. 5) Work Life This path is a discovery of how work can be creation in action. When God commanded Adam to be fruitful and multiply, and tend the earth, it was originally a blessing rather than a curse. In the life of a disciple, work can be a blessing again. As those created in God's image, we can once again reflect the beauty of God's created work by our own creative acts. The landmarks along this path include discovering the joy of work; discerning what type of work is best for the individual; finding, getting, and keeping the right job; challenges on the job; when is it right to retire, and what to do when we can no longer work. 6) Community Life This path teaches how to embrace the power of the greater family of God. Here, we discover that the Church of God does not have a physical address. Rather, the family of God infiltrates virtually every corner of the world, with all kinds of people whom we've never seen. This path also reveals the responsibility of the Church of God to care for His creation, to love others as Christ loves, and to declare the gospel of Christ in our community and across the world. The landmarks along this path include discovering the tapestry of the world- wide church, learning how to present the message of salvation and REAL life to the lost, discerning how God might want us to serve Him at Northside, in the community, across the state and nation, and around the world. 7) Recreational Life This path simply helps the busy believer learn how to rest. It reminds us of God's example and commandment to rest, and it explains why rest is so important to the person and those he affects. The landmarks along this path include God's purpose and design for rest and fun, how to maintain a proper balance of work and rest, and effective ways to rest. 8) Physical Life This path guides the believer toward health and fitness with a purpose. Unlike the world's idea, God has a particular image of what a healthy person looks like. He wants His children to be healthy, not to reflect the unrealistic standards of today's society, but to reflect the beauty and utility of His creation. The landmarks along this path include learning your physical make-up, practical nutrition and exercise, and learning the signs of health problems before they become issues. The failure of many ministries has been the singular approach of teaching. To expect any person to merely hold these truths in their head or to engage in them on their own is less than optimal. Therefore, Northside has determined to bolster our teaching with actual facilities to facilitate each of these areas. •rently on the accompanying master plan you can see the future Cafe', car repair shop, ice machine, fitness center, community and youth facility, and school. These are all part of the necessary facilities to help us carry out this vision. As we acquire more land and opportunity, we will continue to expand our reach and facilitation of helping people in this life in preparation for the life to come. I hope this brief input is sufficient to explain our path for the future and I hope you will be sympathetic to our pursuit. It is our sincere desire to be a benefit and a blessing to our community and beyond, and your approval of this request for rezoning will be a significant step to make this a reality. Thank you for your consideration, Pastor Kenny Chinn 4. Traffic Impact Please provide the estimated number of trips generated for the project's proposed maximum density and intensity based off the most recent version of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) must be completed for all proposed developments that generate more than 100 peak hour trips, and the TIA must be included with this application. ITE Land Use: Trip Generation Use and Variable (gross floor area, dwelling units, etc.) AM Peak Hour Trips: 498 PM Peak Hour Trips: 364 5. Master Planned Development Considerations J Please explain how the proposed development meets the following criteria (attach additional pages if necessary). 1. How would the requested change be consistent with the County's policies for growth and development, as described in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, applicable small area plans, etc. This rezoning would give us the opportunity to provide an additional school to help the already over crowding of the current schools in the area, along with the opportunity to continue to provide small businesses to help our community. Per the 2016 comprehensive plan, this would allow us to provide services to the community we serve. 2. How would the requested development be consistent with the property's classification on the 2016 Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map. The 2016 comprehensive plan map list use as community mixed use. Some uses listed for this are: office, retail, recreational, and institutional. Along with the school we are proposing, our property already has a community park that includes: , basketball courts, volleyball courts, a children's playground, and a picnic shelter. We are also proposing in later phases, an indoor fitness facility, auto service facility, cafe, commercial ice dispenser, and a church community youth building.
