Leasing the property from Seattle City Light really <br />shows a commitment to the area and to Tukwila’s vision. <br /> Commissioner Maestas said he appreciates the job done by the applicant. The facility is <br />improved and raises an architectural design standard for the area. He was supportive of <br />Commissioner Watter’s suggestion regarding planting a tree on the property, he said <br />perhaps the south side of the property. <br /> Commissioner Nguyen said you can see the intentional investment in the property, and the <br />beautiful design, and he appreciates the applicant taking into consideration the suggestion <br />for the landscaping in front of the fueling station. He said it could really turn into a <br />destination station. <br /> <br />MOTIONS: <br /> <br />Commissioner Mann moved to approve Case Number L18-0009, Zoning Variance request based <br />on staff’s findings, conclusions, recommendations and one condition.
