大殿增加高度申請通過！ Main Hall Height Increase Approved! 大殿增加高度申请通过

向郡政府提出放寬高度限制，將大殿從50英呎調高為65英呎的申請，由於郡政府規劃專員要求製作一份視覺分析之補充報告，及疫情之影響，進度一再延後。最終於2021年七月一日舉辦有關本案的公聽會。許多支持信件寄到郡政府，由我方之代表人、 律師、建築師、等發言，順利獲得郡政府規劃委員們全體的投票通過！

The County’s Planning Commission recently approved our request to raise the height of our main Assembly Hall from 50 feet to 65 feet！ Due to an additional visual analysis requested by the county planner and delays related to the pandemic, the public hearing for our height variance request finally took place on July 1st, 2021. Many support letters were sent to Mendocino county. We were well represented by our own spokesperson, lawyer, and architect on the day of the hearing and received the unanimous vote of the Planning Commission in favor of our request!
