ORDINANCE NO. 1501~ Page 4 e steps to insure that run-off to the surrounding neighbors is not encouraged, and mosquito and rodent infestation is abated to the extent possible in connection with the permit. To that end, the City Council of th~ City of La Porte finds that the conditions imposed above are the least restrictive means under which the City of La Porte, Texas, can preserve its Comprehensive Plan under the City's obligation to promote the health, safety, and general welfare of the City while permitting the requested recreational activity on the church property. The City Council finds that the imposition of less restrictive conditions would not adequately protect the City's obligation to promote its Comprehensive Plan and protect the surrounding neighborhood from the potential adverse conditions in 90nnection with the recreational facilities. The City Council of the City of La Porte also finds that the proposed church recreational program is composed of two components. First, children are invited to utilize the proposed recreational facilities for skateboa~ding and/or bicycle riding in an organized, supervised youth activity. The second aspect of the proposed activities involved is that youth gather for prayer and scripture reading on the premises. The City Council of the City of La Porte does not impose any restrictions on the method, manner, or type of exercise of the church's prayer and/or scripture reading activities. As such, these activities are not and will not .be regulated in any method or manner by the City of La Porte, its agents, servants, employees or assigns. "Section 9.
