Anderson trustees okay Horizon megachurch



Preliminary plans for a 160,000-square-foot megachurch were approved by the Anderson Township Board of Trustees.

Horizon Community Church is seeking to build the church and a 1,200-space surface parking lot on land from the former Indian Valley Golf Course.

The approval allows for a zoning change from "H" Riverfront to "A-A CUP" Planned Residence. "H" Riverfront zoning does not allow churches.

A more detailed development plan will be submitted later this year. The Anderson Township Zoning Commission will review those plans to make sure that they comply with the trustees' conditions of approval.
