He has done this without our knowledge or consent. We have contacted Mr Merrick and have advised him that our properties are not for sale and he does not have the right or authority to send out a letter as he has done. We strongly suggested to him that he contact any and all persons with whom he has made contact and immediately rescind any suggestion about these properties being for sale. When we opposed the rezone of Mr Schnieder's property we did so in good faith wanting to maintain our single family homes in this area and we greatly appreciated the Council's finding to retain the R 1.72 zoning. The reason for this letter is to reaffirm our position on wanting to live here and maintain the present zoning. On any questiola regarding our properties, we, or our legal representative, will be responsible, cc: Planning Dept. Mr John Merrick I MAY 1 1988 . c;-.Y (I:...,, L PLANNING _DEPT..

Mayor Pro Tem Harris declared the Public Hearing open on the request to rezone approximately .62 acres of land located east of the intersection of 65th Avenue South and Southcenter Boulevard from R -1 -7.2 (single - family) to P -0 (Professional Office). TUKWILA CITY COUNCIL, REGULAR MEETING April 4, 1988 Page 2 0 PUBLIC HEARINGS (continued) Mr. Lee Phillips, 6550 Southcenter Boulevard, said he lives adjacent to the subject property and is opposed to the pro- posed zoning request. This residential area has been zoned R -1 since the first zoning ordinance established in Tukwila. This area is a buffer zone between the office building and the single- family homes. Two previous owners have attempted to spot rezone this property to multi - family housing. Each time Council rejected their request. This is the second time Mr. Schneider has applied for a rezone to build a commercial office building. The Council rejected his first request, therefore protecting the single - family homes. Mr. Schneider's request is a spot rezone. Mr. Phillips urged the Council to. protect their single- family homes and property values. It would have a terrible environmental impact upon the people that live in this area to have an office building built in the. middle of this R -1 property. The Phillips fam- ily has lived in Tukwila since 1945 and has been active in the community. They like it here and want to keep living here. He is opposed to a spot rezone. Mr. Phillips said he attended the Planning Commission meeting and was very dis- turbed that the members did not know where the property was located. The Planning staff said this is not a spot rezone but when you allow some other form of zoning in the midd a of R -1 Residential, it is a spot rezone. He urged the Council to again reject this rezone and keep this property R -1 resi- dential. Mr. Phillips explained that his home is east of this property and the Henke and Merrick homes are directly north. Mr. Malcom McCloud, attorney, said he is representing John Merrick. He expressed his opinion that the staff's presenta- tion is very inadequate. You cannot tell the location of the property by the way the staff presented it. They did the same thing when they presented it to the Planning Commission. The property under discussion is surrounded by R -1 property. It is inexcusable for a staff member to present a rezone without identifying the area. He pointed out the R -1 prop- erty on the map and noted that it is not identified as such. This was the same map presented to the Planning Commission so they didn't know the location of the R -1 when they ruled on it. There is a street between the subject property and the office building that serves as a buffer zone. There are four homes in the R -1, and now they want to build a business building in the middle. This is an important issue for the Council to consider, and it is not fair to the Council to have such a sloppy presentation. This is clearly a spot rezone. An office building is going to increase traffic and noise, and there will be a lot of dirt generated from the parking lot. These people have been there since 1945 - Merrick, Henke, Phillips, Simonds. They have their money invested in these homes. An office building will devalue their property. They shouldn't be disturbed in the enjoyment of their homes. The Council should honor the rulings of their predecessors and preserve this property as residential property. Mrs. Madge Phillips, 6550 Southcenter Boulevard, asked the Council to deny this request to rezone the Schneider prop- erty. This property has changed hands several times and each time the new owner has applied for a rezone. Each previous Council has found that such a change would be spot zoning. Our home is still in the R -1 area. We have a beautiful view of the mountain, handy access to Southcenter, the freeway, the park, the airport; it is a lovely place to live. TUKWILA CITY COUNCIL, REGULAR MEETING April 4, 1988 Page 3 1uetyk3 ..Y... "J U • o s4 PUBLIC HEARINGS (continued) Mr. Gerald Schneider, 6510 Southcenter Boulevard, said he is the applicant and he purchased this property ten years ago. At that time they were not in the office building business. Referring to the subject property, he said that this is not the most desirable place for single - family residents. Tuk- wila has changed a lot since 1945. At this time, the best use for this property is for an office building. If the R -1 property was rezoned to P- 0,.the value would increase. It is a perfect place for an office, close to freeways and all the major intersections. Mayor Pro -Tem Harris read, for the record, a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Henke. They are requesting that the City Coun- cil uphold the standards set by their predecessors and not permit spot zoning in Tukwila. Rick Beeler, Planning Director, reviewed the Staff Report. The Planning Commission, at their meeting of January 28, 1988 recommended approval of the rezone request based on the staff's Findings and Conclusions, with the added stipulation that any project i. at is proposed on this property be brought before the Board of Architectural Review. Mr. Beeler explained that the Comprehensive Plan, the recon- struction of Southcenter Boulevard, and tree recent rezoning of the Kato property indicate that this property should be rezoned to Professional Office. Mr. Phillips commented that at the time this proposal went to the Planning Commission there were no structural building plans presented. Mr. McCloud again pointed out how badly the Planning staff has described this. The map does not show that the surround- ing property is designated R -1 and ha been for 44 years. This is gross negligence. There being no further comments for or against this proposal, the Public Hearing was closed. Councilmember Bauch explained that this is a misrepresenta- tion of the policy of the City Council. When you have a residential area, you do everything possible to preserve it. If the Merricks, Henkes, Phillips and Simonds families came to the Council and said the noise and congestion is too great and it is not a viable place to live any more, then the Coun- cil would probably unanimously change the zoning. But these families still want to live there and we should make it pos- sible for them to do so. MOVED BY BAUCH, SECONDED BY MORIWAKI, THAT THE COUNCIL NOT APPROVE THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND DENY THE REZONE. * Councilmember Hernandez commented that she is in favor of preserving the residential areas of the City. It is hard to see that this is spot zoning when it is already zoned P -0 next door. When these people decide they want to rezone their property, they will probably find they have quite a good investment in their properties. It is hard to visualize how anybody would want to build a single - family home on this property. This is a hard decision. * MOTION CARRIED. 4 1 j COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PLANNING DEPARTMENT 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 98188 (206) 433 -1849 Members absent: Mr. Coplen.

Schneider REQUEST: Rezone from R -1.7 -2 (Single Family) to P -0 (Professional Office LOCATION: North of Southcenter Boulevard and east of Macadam Road ACREAGE: Approximately 28,000 square feet (.62 acres) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Professional Office ZONING DISTRICT: R -1.7 -2 SEPA DETERMINATION: DNS issued January 14, 1988 ATTACHMENTS: (A) Proposed Site Plan (B) Comprehensive Plan Map /Zoning (C) Applicant's Proposed Zone STAFF REPORT to the 87 -6 -R: Gerald E. Schneider Planning Commission Page 2 VICINITY /SITE INFORMATION FINDINGS 1. Property Area: The rezone area is approximately 28,000 square feet (.62 acres). 2. Existing Development: The rezone property has been vacant for several years. 3. Surrounding Land Use: An office building is located to the west, with four single- family dwelling units on the north and east. The property abuts Southcenter Boulevard on the south. 4. Terrain: The rezone property is hilly with slopes of approximately 50 %. 5. Access: The property will be accessed via Macadam Road. The Tukwila Public Works Department has not requested further road improvements to date. Access easements have been secured for upcoming improvements to Southcenter Boulevard. BACKGROUND In February 1979, the applicant requested a rezone of the subject property from R -1 -7.2 (Single Family Residential) to C -1 (Community Retail Business). Then, as now, the Comprehensive Land Use designation was "Office ". Adjacent property owners opposed the rezone based on potential adverse impacts to the neighboring single - family properties. These concerns included: 1) view block- age; 2) removal of vegetation from the site; 3) parking impacts; and 4) spot zoning. The Planning Commission recommended denial of the proposed rezone based on "potential adverse effects to the surrounding single - family properties." The current proposal calls for a rezone from R -1 -7.2 to P -0 (Professional Office). This is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan map which shows the area as "Office" (Attachment B). At the close of the public hearing, the Planning Commission will deliberate and make its The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for their decision. DECISION CRITERIA The applicable Rezone decision criteria are shown below in bold, followed by pertinent findings of fact. 1. The use or change in zoning requested shall be in conformity with the adopted comprehensive land use policy plan, the provisions of this title, and the public interest. STAFF REPORT to the 87 -6 -R: Gerald E. Schneider Planning Commission Page 3 The proposed P -0 zoning is consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan Map's "Office" designation. The 1977 Comprehensive Plan also showed the rezone area as well as the adjacent area to be "Office ". This designation reflects that office use is a desirable transitional use for this area. The imminent Southcenter Boulevard improvements makes the rezone timely. The requested P -0 zone would be an extension of P -0 zoning which already runs along Southcenter up to 57th Avenue. Extending the P -0 zone provides the opportunity for consistent development per the adopted Comprehensive Land Use Plan. 2. The use or change in zoning requested in the zoning map or this title for the establishment of commercial, industrial, or residential use shall be supported by an architectural site plan showing the proposed development and its relationship to surrounding areas as set forth in the application form. The site plan (Attachment A) is schematic. Future development is shown as a two -story building of approximately 14,000 square feet. The foot print shown in the general site plan is approximately 40' X 180'. Specific building details will be determined in the building permit process. The applicant has stated that the finished office building will meet the P -0 zone's 35 -foot height limit. Front yard setback will be a minimum of 25 feet, with side and rear yard setbacks no less than 10 feet as the Zoning Code requires. Parking and landscaping requirements will also be met. The schematic site plan shows that by building the structure into the toe of the slope, the site's sloping topography would be used to lessen the height impacts of the building on the nearby residences. Design review is required for all buildings over 10,000 square feet. When the developer submits specific information, the public will be able to comment on design - related issues including bulk, views, parking, landscap- ing, building materials, etc., at that time. 3. When the request is not in agreement with the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan, the applicant shall provide evidence to the City Council's satisfac- tion that there is an additional need for the requested land classification. The requested land classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan designation. CONCLUSIONS 1. The proposed rezone is in the public interest since the new zoning would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Improvements to Southcenter Boulevard and development along the roadway support a rezone to allow office use. STAFF REPORT to the 87 -6 -R: Gerald E. Schneider Planning Commission Page 4 3. The proposed office use is consistent with other primarily office /commercial uses along Southcenter Boulevard. 4. A proposed use over 10,000 square feet will trigger design review. At that time citizens will be able to review the specific project. 5. The proposal meets the basic criteria for rezones. RECOMMENDATIONS Planning staff recommends rezoning from R -1 -7.2 to P -0 as requested. (22/87 -6 -R) ATTACHMENT A PROPOSED SITE PLAN 7 NO ri 1 4... 2 -1 -79 I I 1` Cm. I 1 Schneider homes inc. id!'

Council Presi- dent Bohrer read the lt±t r whic statt 'the vacation will result in a bottle -neck of traffic and reduce the avenues of foot and vehicle traffic to the people up the hill and to the entry to Tukwila Park. It will render the hilltop and the park inaccessible and will destroy historic traffic flow with no benefit to anyone except Mr. Schneider. His letter continued that none of the surrounding property owners received any notice of the hearing on this vacation last week, so his clients request an advance notice of applications for vacation or hearings on same, so they can express their opposition. They also requested additional public hearing on this vacation, with notice to this office of any future proceedings on the matter. Mr. McLeod audience verbally stated the ign4 IOU' •- er. Mr.[Carl Bloss), audience, re resenting G. E. Schneider, said Mr. Schneider had cleaned up e area requested to be vacated; it is presently blocked off to traffic and there is very little foot traffic. Mr. Schneider wishes to landscape the area and it will unite: the two pieces of property Mr. Schneider owns on each side of the road: The Council asked questions about the present zoning of the area. M Stoknes, OCD Director, said the area is single family. Madge Phillips, audience, said she used to walk down the road and when construction began.' she felt she was intrudinq_on private properi ••t -of -way. She sa p frequently use it for a short cut. Mr. B o ss1 audience, drew the intersection on the blackboard and ointed out a proposed crossing to be at 65th Street. He said if the area they wish to have vacated remained a public pathway, people woul x still have to go back to 65th Street to get across Southcenter Boule- vard. Mayor Bauch said the walkway is being designed as part of the South - center Boulevard project.

WHAT IS THE CURRENT ZONING OF THE PROPERTY? R - - 7.2 6. WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE PROPERTY? 27,153 sf. eo. 1) )08-1 8. WHAT IS THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION? P.O. REZONE CRITERIA: The burden of proof in demonstrating that the change is appropriate lies solely upon the proponent. Generally, the more dramatic the change, the greater will be the burden of showing that the proposed change is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan as implemented by the Zoning Ordinance. The proponent must show in a clear and precise manner why the rezoning application should be granted. The Planning Commission and City Council will review your proposal using the following criteria. You may attach additional sheets and submit other documentation to support your rezone application. 9. The use or change in zoning requested shall be in conformity with the adopted comprehensive land use policy plan, the provisions of this title, and the public interest; RESPONSE: The Comprehensive Plan Map recommends P.O. The staff report dated February 22, 1979 recommends C -1, which is a down- zoning that we support, since it allows the office structure we propose REZONE APPLICATION Page 2 10. The use or change in zoning requested in the zoning map or this title for the establishment of commercial, industrial, or residential use shall be supported by an architectural site plan showing the proposed development and its relationship to surrounding areas as set forth in the application form; 11. When the request is not in agreement with the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan, the applicant shall provide evidence to the City Council's satisfac- tion that there is an additional need for the requested land classification. To respond to this criteria, obtain a Comprehensive -Plan Amendment Applica- tion and submit in conjunction with Rezone Application. 1 . /tog 12. Significant changes have occurred in the character, conditions or surround- ing neighborhood that justify or otherwise substantiate the proposed rezone. RESPONSE: The land use along Southcenter Blvd. has developed as commercial & office building and is recommended by the Comprehensive Zoning Plan & 1979 staff planning report. A business corridor, both East & West of the site has been established, along with road improvements to support it. This is the only site along that corridor which has been denied commercial use. 13. The proposed rezone is in the best interest of the public health, safety, and welfare as compared to the hardship, such as diminution of property value, imposed on the individual property owner. RESPONSE: The property was purchased with the belief that the Comprehensive Plan Map indicated the best use of the site as it would benefit the City, public and private interest. 14. The unimproved subject property is unsuitable for the purpose for which it has been zoned considered in the context of the length of time the property has remained unimproved and land development in the surrounding area. RESPONSE: Traffic noise and activities around the site make it unsuitable for sin:le -famil housin•. Retention of the .resent zonin• does not make sense in view of the present business & traffic developments along Southcenter Boulevard.
