To build any building in a city you've got to get several different departments to sign off, grant permits and licenses. I suppose churches aren't any different. If wal-mart is required to construct a parking lot with X amount of spaces and a minimum number of exits leading to different roads, there's no reason churches shouldn't have to. I've seen some rather large churces with only one or two ways into the parking lot. I don't know why they would get approved to build in such a way but a for-profit business can't. Sometimes zoning laws are a good thing. Sometimes the permitting process is a good thing. sometimes.
