INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community ffairs and Parks Committee
e
FROM: Jack Pace
DATE: August 12, 2010
SUBJECT: Moratorium on social card game gambling uses.
ISSUE
Renew the moratorium on "mini- casinos
BACKGROUND
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
On March 22, 2010, the City Council passed Ordinance 2279 adopting a six -month moratorium
on the establishment of social card game gambling activities. A public hearing on the issue of the
moratorium was held on May 3, 2010 and after the public hearing the City Council passed
Ordinance 2286 adopting the findings of fact justifying the adoption of the moratorium. The six
month moratorium is effective until September 22, 2010.
Ten years ago the City Council adopted an ordinance that prohibited new social card game
establishments but permitted existing licensed social card game businesses to remain as legal non-
conforming land uses. Subsequent to that in 2003, Division I of the Court of Appeals issued its
opinion in Edmonds Shopping Center Assoc, et al. vs. City of Edmonds, which affirmed that
cities may absolutely prohibit any or all gambling activities, but called into question cities'
ability to exercise zoning or other general police powers over licensed gambling activities.
At this time the state gambling regulations (chapter 9.46 RCW) only permit local jurisdictions to
completely prohibit card room uses, including those previously established, or allow them
anywhere food and drink establishments are permitted. There was a recent amendment to the
state law that allows social card game businesses established prior to annexation into a city and
licensed prior to July 26, 2009, to continue to operate even though gambling may be prohibited
in that jurisdiction.
The city is currently engaged in the state legislative process for more local control regarding the
location of these uses and the current moratorium will expire before the legislative process is
completed. If local control is achieved through the legislative process then additional research will
be done to assess which zones should allow social card gambling activities. Staff is currently
engaged in reviewing the implications of banning social card rooms, should the City's legislative
efforts fail.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
At this time there are three existing card rooms operating in Tukwila; Golden Nugget, Great
American Casino and Riverside. The city has been informed that Silver Dollar is now closed.
Nevada Gold Casinos, Inc. of Houston, Texas has recently acquired Golden Nugget Casino
located in Tukwila along with five other mini casinos in Washington. The newspapers have
reported that Nevada Gold decided not to pursue the acquisition of the Silver Dollar Tukwila due
to consistent losses.
Enacting a complete ban would make the existing establishments illegal. However if the ban is
lifted, under the City's current zoning code, card room uses will be allowed in all zones that allow
food and drink establishments. Currently, restaurants with cocktail lounges are permitted in all
commercial and industrial zones, except for Residential Commercial Center where they are a
conditional use.
There are a number of jurisdictions that prohibit gambling activities. According to the information
received by staff from the state gambling commission, if there is a complete ban the commission
will rescind the license issued to any existing establishment that may have an existing license from
the gambling commission.
Renewing the moratorium is necessary as staff continues to be engaged in the legislative process
and continues to study and come up with options related to zoning regulations involving food and
eating establishments where social card gambling activities could be allowed. Also, it is important
to prevent vesting of any new applications while legislative amendments are pursued and to
maintain the status quo.
RECOMMENDATION
Forward the ordinance renewing the moratorium on mini casinos to the Committee of the Whole
for a public hearing on September 13, 2010.

WHEREAS, there are three existing card rooms operating in Tukwila that generate
significant gambling tax revenues for the City; and

non conforming social card games to remain; and
WHEREAS, the City Council established a six-month moratorium to prevent the
vesting of any new applications and to maintain the status quo while alternatives are
studied and considered; and
WHEREAS, the City is currently engaged in the state legislative process for more local

establishments and where social card game gambling activities could be allowed; and
WHEREAS, if local control is not achieved through the Legislative process, staff needs
additional time to research and review secondary adverse impacts, if any, related to

SUBJECT: 2010 Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Rezones
ISSUE
The Washington Growth Management Act allows a jurisdiction's Comprehensive Plan to be amended once
each year, except in case of emergency. This memo provides information on the Planning Commission's
recommendations for two Comprehensive Plan amendments and three rezones under review this year. It
requests that the amendments are forwarded to the City Council for a briefing, public hearing and action.
BACKGROUND
City of Tukwila Jim Haggerton, Mayor

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
Process to date:
The City Council took comments from the public at a public meeting on June 28, 2010 and took action on July
6, 2010 to forward the Comprehensive Plan amendments to the Planning Commission for staff review, public
hearing and recommendation. After holding a hearing on July 22, 2010, the Planning Commission made
recommendations, and is forwarding the issues back the City Council for a last public hearing and final action.
After taking comments from the public at a hearing, the Council may:
Adopt a proposed amendment by ordinance;
Adopt a modified version of a proposed amendment by ordinance; or
Reject the amendment.
Consideration of a site specific map amendment is a quasi-judicial decision. Consideration of an area -wide
zoning map change is a legislative decision.
At each stage in the review process, staff has tried to encourage public involvement. Public meetings and
hearings were advertised in the newspaper, and put on the City's website. Individual sites were posted with
notices of applications and meetings. Staff met statutory notification requirements in providing mailings to
owners and occupants within 500' of the proposed map and zoning changes.

Organization of Informational Materials
Exhibits 1 -6 provide basic information to accompany the informational memo. Attachments 1 -3 include
complete planning Commission staff reports, and draft ordinances that reflect the Planning Commission
recommendations for each of the Comprehensive Plan amendment /Zoning code amendment requests
respectively.
DISCUSSION
1. Wooden LLC Amend Comprehensive Plan /Zoning Map on two parcels,
including: 1) Manufacturing Industrial Center/Light to Office; and, 2) Low Density Residential (LDR) to
Office
File #L09- 064 Comprehensive Plan Amendment
File #L09- 065 Rezone
The applicant, Wooden LLC, requested to redesignate two parcels, including: 1) Manufacturing Industrial
Center —Light (MIC /L) to Office (0) at 3912 S. 115 and, 2) Low Density Residential (LDR) to Office at
3914 S. 115 The parcels are located generally at the southeast corner of the Duwamish Riverbend Hill park
property. The parcel that is currently zoned LDR is vacant. The parcel zoned MIC/L is now used as a
construction storage yard. The applicant offered to donate a third, small parcel across S. 116 on the river.
This is not part of the Comprehensive Plan amendment/rezone consideration. (Exhibit 1, pp 1 &2) (Exhibits 2
3)
The applicant requested Office designation in order to construct an office or similar development on two
parcels. Applicant's reasons for the rezone request were: a) The site is more developable if combined with the
adjacent lot; b) Uses that are allowed in the proposed Office zone, such as office or gallery, would provide a
transition with fewer impacts to the residential neighborhood than uses, such as manufacturing and auto
repair,that could be built under the current the MIC /L zoning; c) It is more economical to build a three story
building and the maximum building height in the proposed Office zone is 35'/3 stories, compared with the
existing 45'/4 stories in the MIC /L lot, and 30'in the LDR lot. There were concerns raised at the public hearing
related to parking and access. Future development would be required to provide parking on site, and access
would be limited via S. 115 rather than through the adjacent residential neighborhood. (Attachment 1)

2. Macadam LLC— Redesignate parcel from Commercial/Light Industrial (C/LI) to Medium Density
Residential (MDR)
File #L09 -067— Comprehensive Plan
File #L10- 002 Rezone
The applicant, Barry Becker, is requesting to redesignate one parcel from Commercial /Light Industrial to
Medium Density Residential (MDR) at 4300 S. 133 Street, Tukwila, WA (Parcel 261320- 0131). The
majority of the vacant property contains environmentally sensitive areas, including a Type 2 stream, a Type 2
wetland, and their associated buffer areas. It also includes a steep slope with moderate potential for geologic
instability. (Attachment 2 A)
The property in question is immediately adjacent to a lot that is designated LDR, and that contains a single
family residence. The subject property is vacant except for a garage that serves the single family home on the
adjoining lot. The redesignation is sought in order to allow housing, rather than commercial /light industrial
uses to be built adjacent to a Low Density Residential zone. Given the many environmentally sensitive areas on
the site, housing is considered to be a more appropriate use than commercial or light industrial activities.
Medium density residential would provide a better transition to the adjacent low density residential area, than
the current commercial and light industrial uses that could be built under the current zoning.
Medium Density residential allows up to 14.5 units per acre. In light of the site's streams, wetlands and slopes,
it is likely that a maximum of five units could be built on the property, either as town homes or duplex, triplex
or four -plex. If desired, a planned residential development could be built on the site in order to encourage
imaginative site design by clustering homes, and to create open space in the future development that keeps
features of the natural environment for the enjoyment of future residents.
The property is the site of an ongoing code violation for removing vegetation and placing illegal fill in the
stream buffer, and wetland buffer. The applicant applied for and has received a 50% buffer reduction that
allows him to perform the required work on the site to mitigate impacts to the wetland and buffer, and to
enhance the buffer. These actions will correct the code violation, increase developable space on the site, and
improve the wetland buffer. The applicant is required to make significant progress in mitigating the impacts of
the code violation and enhancing the buffer as a condition of the buffer reduction decision, and to proceed with
consideration of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone. Future multi family development would be
subject to design review, traffic impact and noise review.
Planning Commission Recommendation Comprehensive Plan (File L09 067)
The Planning Commission voted to approve the request to redesignate a parcel from
Commercial/Light Industrial (C/LI) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) with the following
conditions:
1) All requirements of the following contract rezone must be met including:
a. All code violation issues, including the conditions outlined in the Special Permission Director
(File L09 -014) shall be completed by the applicant and finalized by the City of Tukwila by
December 31, 2010.
b. In the event that the above condition is not met by the deadline above, the rezone shall be voided.
Medium Density Residential zoning shall revert to Commercial /Light Industrial without further

Attachment 2 C.
Tukwila South Annexation Establish Zoning for Recently- Annexed Area
File #L10- 035 Zoning
Issue:
Annexing portions of the Tukwila South Project Area inadvertently created an inconsistency between the
Comprehensive Plan Land Use map and the zoning map. The recommended zoning change corrects the issue.
Background:
In 2009, the Tukwila City Council adopted several ordinances that pertain to the Tukwila South Project. These
ordinances state that the Tukwila South property shall be subject to the Comprehensive Plan, Tukwila South
Master Plan, and Tukwila South Overlay District zoning regulations as described in the Tukwila South Project
Development Agreement, adopted in Ordinance #2233. Ordinance #2233 also states that the ordinances
pertaining to the Development Agreement shall expire if the Development Agreement terminates prior to the
expiration of its term.
Reauirement for consistency between Comprehensive Plan land use man and zoning man: Tukwila's
Comprehensive Plan land use map and its zoning map are required to be consistent. For example, if the
Comprehensive Plan land use map specifies "Low Density Residential" (LDR) for a site, then the zoning map
also will also specify "Low Density Residential" (LDR). In certain cases where an area has specific
development goals, a supplemental, "overlay" zoning district with specialized development requirements may
apply, usually subject to specific conditions. The basic "underlying zoning and Comprehensive Plan
designations are in place, but a supplemental zoning overlay will apply if certain conditions are met.

When the southernmost part of the Tukwila South Project Area was annexed to Tukwila, the Tukwila South
Overlay zone became the applicable zoning for the annexed area. However while the Tukwila South Overlay
supplements zoning under certain circumstances, it does not replace the underlying zoning. When the Tukwila
South Project Area was annexed, the Comprehensive Plan designation was already in place, but identical zoning
was not established.
The Tukwila South Overlay Zone applies to the entire Tukwila South Master Plan Area. Some of that area was
already within Tukwila's city limits and had Comprehensive Plan designation and zoning, but the new
annexation area had only Comprehensive Plan designation, and no underlying zoning. In addition, the new
annexation area could be left without zoning in the event that the Tukwila South Development Agreement
terminates before its term.
The proposed amendment to the zoning map corrects the problem, by establishing zoning in the area that
was annexed without underlying zoning, and making the new zoning consistent with Comprehensive Plan
designations that were in place before the annexation occurred. The current Comprehensive Plan
designation and the proposed underlying zoning in the Tukwila South Annexation Area are the same,
including: Low Density Residential (LDR), Mixed Use Office (MUO) and Tukwila Valley South (TVS).
Supplemental zoning and development regulations for the area are addressed via the Tukwila South
Overlay district zone (TMC 18.41).
Planning Commission Recommendation: Rezone (File #L10 034)
Establish "underlying" zoning that is the same as the Comprehensive Plan designations within the
Tukwila South Master Plan area that was annexed to the City of Tukwila per Ordinance #2241.
A draft ordinance adopting the rezone per the Planning Commission's recommendation is included as
Attachment 3 B.
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council is being asked to hold a public hearing on these items at the September 13, 2010 Committee
of the Whole meeting, and to take action at the subsequent September 20, 2010 Regular Meeting.

building heights in the "'Wed Office zone are 35'/3 stories, compared with the existing 45'/4 stories in
the MIC /L lot, and 30'infhb LDR lot.
The applicant has offered to donate a third small, vacant riverfront parcel to the City. Ms. Fox stated the
donation would not be a part of the consideration for the re -zone. Parcel one, in a manufacturing area is
separated from other manufacturing uses, and is currently being used as a construction storage yard, a
permitted use in the MIC /L zone. The applicant has requested to retain this use as a legal, non-
conforming use for a maximum of two years if the Office designation is approved. In light of the poor
economy, retaining the use for a maximum of two years would allow time to prepare for development. If
conditions are not met, the Office zoning would be void and the former zoning would revert.
Staff Recommendation: Approval with four conditions as listed in the July 22, 2010 staff report.

Commissioner Alford asked for clarification on the height for Office compared to MIC /L, and
discussion followed.
Commissioner Arthur asked if both parcels are entirely within the 200 foot shoreline management zone,
and staff confirmed that it is. He also asked if anything was allowed to be built as it currently exist, and
staff responded that they are not sure. Staff will follow -up on Commissioner Arthur's inquiry, and
provide information regarding when the Shoreline Master Program will be adopted by the Department of
Ecology.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY:
Frank Firmani, applicant stated it is his goal to construct a smart, intelligent, green, and friendly
development that fits in with the park and the adjacent neighborhood,aMr:.Firmani said that the donated
parcel will become part of the river front trail. He said that a mixed:°use building the site would not
work economically. Mr. Firmani also commented that he has met with staff in the..Parks and Recreation
Department in the past, and that they are supportive of the project....
Eric Cobb, Architect, for the applicant, said that the impact of the MIC /L property on thePark is a
significant one He said that carefully considered landscaping requirements and landscape n th ffers
between the park and property could significantly ease the transition;'of the development also said
that the donated parcel is a substantive improvement to the coi iiuiity and the park.
Kathy Desjardin, citizen, asked if there would` e a,benefit to the conirgunity to put an office building in
between a park and residential area She raisediSeVeralother questions: e:said she would prefer that
the zoning not be changed. Ms. Desjardin said that shereceived the public n otice on July 7` and it had a
comment deadline of June 21.
Denise Meyers, citizen, said=that-c ging the parcels; would be a:negative impact on the surrounding
neighborhood significantly: She sai that increased traffic in the area would be a safety issue for the
residents. She also salditWould be aliiige impact to theseptic system for the park and the residents in
the neighborhood. Ms. Meyers:.said t1ie;aonate< land to flie City would not be beneficial. She also
commented that there is no parkin °ih t ie
Mark Lund, citizen, itt elt ed on wie`hher there has been a traffic mitigation study. He said that the

aboufl ••littbic safety, due to 'amount of fraffic that would be leaving the area daily.
REBUTTAL:
Georgina Keir citizen said th $there should not be this type of building constructed in the
neighborhood becairseit is out c context and place. She said that it would increase run -off, increase
danger to pedestriarisy d that Ris too close to the residential area
Ms. Kerr supports main±Thixig the existing zoning.
Ms. Fox addressed the comments given by the citizens. She said that any development must meet code.
She stressed that there is a range of activities, such as auto repair and manufacturing that are currently
permitted under the MIC /L that could be built now. Under the Office re -zone there is also a range of
activities that could be built and it doesn't have to be an office building. She said that traffic access
would be from S. 115` rather than on a residential street to avoid impact on the neighborhood, and that
all parking would be on site to meet code requirements. With careful site design, future development
could be placed away from the neighboring LDR uses to minimize impacts. She said that a stop sign at
the site would contribute to safety. She also said that any new development would be required to handle
the run -off on site. Several questions were addressed.

Chair Arthur thanked the commissioners for indulging him and allowing the public to exceed the five
minute testimony time limit. He said that the commissioners get a perspective from the community when
they get public input, which they are not privy to with just a staff report and input from property owners.
He said that he appreciates the people who take the time and effort to provide the public input, and five
minutes just doesn't do it sometimes. He also said that the exchanges tonight between the public and staff
were well worth hearing.
The Planning Commission deliberated.
Chair Arthur clarified that the Planning Commission would make` a:Irecomme't tion to the City Council
and that the City Council will make the final decision.
Commissioner Peterson said he thinks that a re -zone to 5fffice use would create fewer]

Commissioner Strand said that she concurs with the comments made in appreciation of the testimony.
She said that she has reviewed the Zoning Code and all of the different uses that could be applied to the
Office designation. She said she also concurs with Commissioner Alford regarding the applicant meeting
all of the traffic requirements, and Commissioner Arthur's comments regarding the notice.
Commissioner Bratcher said it needs to be kept in mind that they may be setting precedent for
temporary zoning to flip flop back and forth. She said that either they should change the use, or they
don't. She also said that she has a slight problem with changing the use and allowing non conforming
use.

FINDINGS
Background and Proiect Descriution
The applicant Wooden LLC seeks to amend the Comprehensive Plan and zoning
designation on two lots located southeast of the Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park,
generally located at 3914 S. 115 Street, Tukwila, WA. (Attachments A and B)
Parcel 1, currently zoned MIC -L, is immediately adjacent to Duwamish Riverbend Hill
Park. It was envisioned as part of the Park in the 2007 Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park.
The property is now serving as storage for construction equipment, a permitted use in the
current MIC /L zone.
The second lot, Parcel 3, is located at the western edge of the residential neighborhood,
and is zoned Low Density Residential. It is now vacant, but at one time it contained a
single family house.
The applicant is requesting to rezone both properties to Office (0), with the wish to
create a development opportunity that will "both improve the Duwamish Hill Park and
support the adjacent residential neighborhood with a more appropriate and inviting use."
The goal is to construct an office building. No specific project information has been
provided. Any project is subject to development review under the Office zoning. Design
review and SEPA/environmental review would take place when a project is proposed.
The applicant has offered to donate a third small property, Parcel 2, to the City of
Tukwila for the purposes of shoreline and riverbank enhancement and trail development
if the proposed Office rezone is approved. The lot is located adjacent to the Duwamish
River and lies across S. 115 Street from the properties that are requesting
Comprehensive Plan amendment/rezone. This proposed donation is not a factor in
considering whether to approve the requested map change, but would be a positive
acquisition for the shoreline.
In light of poor economy, the ongoing storage lease, and the time required to start site
development for a future office use, the applicant has requested that he be allowed to
continue use of the construction storage yard for two years after the Comprehensive Plan
amendment and rezone are approved. The storage yard, now operating as a permitted use
on Parcel 1 under the current MIC/L zoning, would become a non conforming use if the
rezone to Office is approved. During the two -year period, the applicant will prepare to
redevelop of the site, while operating the construction storage lot.
If the City of Tukwila feels that this request is appropriate, it could be enacted through a
contract rezone. The contract rezone would also be referenced in the Comprehensive
Plan recommendation. In this case, the applicant would be required to cease storage yard
operations in a set time period after the rezone becomes effective, and to donate Parcel 2,
located along the Duwamish River, to the City for public use. If the storage yard did not

29
cease operations by the deadline, the rezone would become void and zoning would revert
to the previous MIC /L and LDR. The small waterfront property would remain in City
ownership for public use. These conditions would serve to protect both community and
City interests.
The Community Affairs and Parks Committee were briefed on June 14, 2010 and the
issue was forwarded to the City Council. After taking comments at a public meeting on
June 28, 2010, the City Council deliberated on July 6, 2010, and forwarded the issue to
the Planning Commission for review. (Attachment C)
Vicinitv /Site Information
Site: The two lots are located 3912 and 3914 S. 115 Street. Lot #1 (current M/IC -L) is
approximately square in shape and fronts on S. 115 Street. A small portion of the
northernmost part the property is Type 3 slope, with "high landslide potential, and slopes
between 15% and 40% underlain with relatively impermeable soils or by bedrock. Lot
#3 (current LDR) is rectangular in shape, and also fronts on S. 115 Street.
Approximately one -half of the property contains Type 3 slopes. The two lots total
approximately 15, 633 s.f. or .36 acres.
Vicinity:
The immediate neighborhood is a mixture of single family residential uses, and
commercial/industrial activity. Single family residential uses are immediately adjacent to
the north and east along 40 Avenue South and S. 113 and 114 Streets South, as well
as across the Duwamish River. Topography provides a break between the subject
property and the existing single family residential.
Industrial uses commonly associated with the MIC/L, including truck sales and service,
United Parcel Service shipping, air freight, and construction storage are located along E.
Marginal Way to the west. The light rail track runs along E. Marginal Way South,
approximately one -tenth mile away. The Burlington Northern train yard is approximately
1/4 mile east in an MIC/H zone. Fire Station #53 is located at 4202 S. 115th Street in the
Residential Commercial Center (RCC) zone approximately one -tenth mile south east. A
wedding store /office is located adjacent south in a High Density Residential (HDR) zone.
The most visible feature is Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park, immediately adjacent to
Parcel 1. Like Parcel 1, the Park is zoned MIC/L. Owned by the City of Tukwila, it is an
established park and is used for cultural and recreational purposes, rather than industrial
activity. It has been designated as Public Recreation Overlay (PRO). This overlay, placed
on parks and trails, such as the Foster Links, or Centennial Park, supplements a property's
underlying zoning and ensures that the park or trail property will be used exclusively for
recreational purposes.
A pedestrian/bicycle trail, accessible by a foot bridge approximately four —tenths of a
mile south, runs on the western side of the D uwamish River. Duwamish Park is
approximately three- tenths of a mile away, and the Tukwila Community Center is one
mile south

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA
Planning Commission review is required for Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code
amendments. The Planning Commission may recommend approval, recommend
approval with conditions or recommend denial of the amendment based on a clear
compliance with the criteria that follow. The Planning Commission's recommendation
will be forwarded to the City Council, which will make the final decision. (TMC 18.80
and 18.84)
1) Describe how the issue is addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. If the issue is
not adequately addressed, is there a need for it?
Aspects of the requested change designation are addressed in several goals and policies.
Four broad reaching objectives are the basis for the elements, goals and policies for
Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan's primary objective is
preserving and enhancing Tukwila's neighborhoods.
Tukwila Comprehensive Plan Objective #1 is "To improve and sustain residential
neighborhood quality and livability.
Redesignating the existing MIC/L property to Office provides a better transition between
Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park on the west, and the residential uses to the immediate east.
The potential impacts of development allowed in the current MIC /L (Le. gas station, auto
repair, contractor storage, etc.) are likely to be more negative to residential quality, than the
uses (such as office, gallery, etc.) allowed under the proposed Office zone.
The rezone to Office eliminates one LDR residential lot, and the possibility of future
housing development.
Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement Residential neighborhoods protected from undue noise
impacts, in order to ensure for all residents the continued use, enjoyment and value of their
homes, public facilities and recreation, and the outdoors.
Uses allowed under the Office designation may have less impact on the neighborhood,
including the adjacent Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park and single- family homes, than those
in the current MIC/L designation. Converting Parcel 3, a residentially -zoned lot, to Office
places a commercial use adjacent and in the vicinity of other property that is now zoned or
used for single- family homes. The subject lot and its adjacent residential lot are vacant.
Existing residential uses are located farther up the hill on 40 Avenue South, and are
separated from the site by sloping topography. New development would access along S.
115 Street, avoiding the residential neighborhood.
Goal Z3 Overall Land Use Pattern —A land use pattern that encourages a strong sense of
community by grouping compatible and mutually supportive uses and separating incompatible use.
The existing MIC/L is an abrupt transition to a use that is potentially incompatible with the
adjacent residential uses, as well as the existing park. An office use may provide a more
gradual transition with fewer potential impacts.
Rf 4 07/15 /2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC.Staff.Rpt.Wooden-- No.P.R.O. -7.1 10 p.m..doc
31
Residential Neighborhoods Policy 7.3.1 Maintain a comprehensive land use map that
supports the preservation and enhancement of single-family and stable multi family
neighborhoods; eliminates incompatible uses; and clearly establishes applicable
development requirements through recognizable boundaries.
The proposed Comprehensive Plan change Office would eliminate one residential lot, but
would also avoid the potentially negative impacts of an automotive repair shop or
manufacturing business adjacent to residential, setting clear boundaries between the
residential neighborhood and the adjacent Park.
Policy 11.1.6 Develop and designate appropriate zoning, buffers, mitigation and access
opportunities where manufacturing zoning directly abuts or impacts residential zoning so
that MIC uses may operate without significant degradation of the residential environment.
Parcel 1 is zoned MIC/L, but there are no industrial uses in the immediate vicinity. The
Duwamish Riverbend Hill park, although now zoned MIC/L, will remain in recreational use
as a park, and will not be developed for industrial purposes. The majority of industrial type
activity is located west toward E. Marginal Way South. Several blocks east, the active
Burlington Northern yard abuts another LDR residential neighborhood, and is zoned
MIC/H.
Immediately adjacent to the single family neighborhood and the Duwamish Riverbend Hill
Park, Parcel 1, the existing MIC/L lot, is separated from similar uses. It is not compatible
with the adjoining public park. The neighboring single family homes are without adequate
buffer should a permanent industrial use locate there as allowed under the current MIC/L
designation. Any light manufacturing/industrial activities have the potential to negatively
impact the residential neighborhood.
Goa11.5 —A riverfront that is accessible, developed and appreciated as a major amenity of
the community and region.
This goal addresses the possible donation of the riverfront Parcel 2 to the City for public
use.
2) If the issue is not adequately addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, is there a need
for the proposed change?
The proposed amendment draws attention to Parcel 1's current MIC/L designation,
which is not the most appropriate for the location i.e. adjacent to a City park, and
single family homes, and separated geographically from the remainder of the
Manufacturing/Industrial Center's industrial uses.
Rezones and Comprehensive Plan changes are exempt from the current moratorium
on certain types of development in the MIC area.
Parcel 3 is somewhat separated from neighboring homes by topography, as well as
through its orientation and access on S. 115 Street, rather than 40 Avenue South
or S. 116 Street like the other homes. This makes its redesignation to Office and its
inclusion in office -type redevelopment more feasible and desirable.

32
Office use could_be more appropriate to the location than a light manufacturing
use, as is permitted under the current Comprehensive Plan and zoning.
3) Is the proposed change the best means for meeting the identified public need?
What other options are there for meeting the identified public need?
Designating Parcel 1, which is currently MIC -L, to Office provides a needed buffer
for nearby residential zones from the potential negative impacts of industrial
activity. Since the MIC/L -zoned Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park was developed, the
adjacent Parcel 1 is isolated from existing and potential industrial uses.
Designating both Parcel 1 and Parcel 3 as Office will provide sufficient space for
well- designed development.
Office designation will facilitate longer term improvements to the area, with new
investment in non industrial, lower impact office use.
Office use will provide employment and revenue generating activities for the
community.
Office use could spur lower impact redevelopment, which will enhance the
community by bringing daytime activity to the street and adjacent park.
Designating Parcel 3, which is now vacant LDR, as Office removes potential
residential uses, and brings non residential office use into the vicinity of a single
family residential area.
The public need for housing could be met by retaining the LDR zoning on Parcel 3,
and rezoning only Parcel 1 to Office. Rezoning one parcel would still provide a
buffer from light industrial uses for nearby single family homes.
The public need to avoid an industrial use adjacent to residential and park use could
be met by rezoning both parcels as Residential Commercial Center (RCC). This
zone allows up to two stories of office or retail, but stipulates that a third floor if
built, must be used for housing.
If the Office designation is approved, donation of Parcel 2 to the City of Tukwila can
maintain and enhance public use along the shoreline.
4) Will the proposed change result in a net benefit to the community?
The proposed change could benefit the community by allowing a lower impact
office -type use to develop on the site, rather than light manufacturing, with its
potentially greater negative impacts to the adjacent residential community
The proposed change may spur redevelopment along S. 115 that will benefit the
community.
Office use will generate daytime activity in the area, but will not create impacts at
night.
A potentially harmful MIC/L use, such as gas station or auto repair, would no longer
border the residential neighborhood to the east, or the park to the west.
Extending an office -type use into the residential area precludes future single- family
residential activity on Parcel 3.
Tukwila would gain public land along the Duwamish River through donation of
Parcel 2.

The existing construction storage is a permitted use under the current MIC /L zoning
and produces some economic value. Construction storage is not a permitted use
under the Office zone, and the storage yard would become a non conforming use.
Allowing the contractor storage yard to operate as a legal non conforming use for
a set time period after rezone to Office maintains the status quo without additional
impact to the community, and adds an incentive for the applicant to complete
construction. If the conditions are not met, the current MIC /L and LDR zoning
would be unchanged. The public would benefit by the donation of the waterfront
parcel in either case.
CONCLUSIONS
In reviewing Comprehensive Plan criteria, staff concludes that:
1) Is the issue addressed in the Comprehensive Plan? Is it needed?
Comprehensive Plan objectives, goals and policies acknowledge the need for
Tukwila to retain and enhance residential neighborhoods, and to protect them
from undue noise. Redesignating from Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light to
Office enhances the neighborhood through the possible development of lower
impact office use.
The proposal eliminates one Low Density Residential lot, and precludes future
residential development.
2) Impacts?
The requested map change to Office could potentially add lower- impact office or
similar development that would enhance the appearance of the area without
significantly affecting the existing residential uses up the hill.
Specific redevelopment plans will undergo environmental, design review and
building permit review.
3) Meeting identified public need? Other options?
Designating Lot 1, which is currently MIC/L, to Office provides a needed buffer for
nearby residential zones from the potential negative impacts of industrial activity.
Since the MIC/L -zoned Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park was developed, the adjacent
Parcel 1 is isolated from existing and potential industrial uses.
Designating both Lots 1 and Lots 3 as Office will provide sufficient space for well
designed development that will produce employment and revenue, and will enhance
the community with fewer impacts than the existing MIC /L zone.
Lot 1 could be designated as Office, and Lot 3 could be left as Low Density
Residential in order to maintain the possibility of housing being developed.

34
Designating Lots 1 and 3 as Residential Commercial Center (RCC) would enable
a mixed used development to be built with office or retail on the first two floors,
with a possible third floor in residential use. This would bring both office /retail
use and housing to the area, while eliminating negative impacts of the MIC /L
zoning.
4) Benefit to the community?
Lower impact office -type use would offer greater benefits and fewer negative
impacts than the existing MIC /L zoning.
Office use will generate daytime activity in the area, but will not affect nearby
residents at night.
Allowing the contractor storage yard to operate as a legal non conforming use
for two years through a contract Comprehensive Plan amendment /rezone to
Office maintains the current status without more impact to the community,
and adds an incentive for the applicant to complete construction.
If the conditions are not met, there would be no change in zoning, and the
current MIC /L and LDR status would be unchanged. The public would not
be harmed since the use is already in operation, and would benefit by the
donation of the waterfront parcel in either case.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the following:
Approval of the Comprehensive Plan Map amendment of property located at 3912 S.
115 Street (Tax 1023049072) from Manufacturing Industrial Center/Light to
Office and property located at 3814 S. 115 Street (Tax #1023049063) from Low
Density Residential to Office with the following conditions:
1) All requirements of the following contract rezone must be met including:
a. Contractor storage operations shall not be allowed on Tax Lot
1023049063, and shall be completely removed prior to the effective date
of this rezone;
b. The contractor storage yard on Tax lot #1023049072 shall meet all legal
requirements, and shall cease all operation no later than two years (730
days) after the effective date of the rezone;
c. In the event that all operations of the contractor storage yard are not
terminated by the deadline above, the rezone shall be voided. Office
zoning shall revert to Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light (Tax
1023049072) and Low Density Residential (Tax 1023049063) without
further legislative action;
d. Applicant agrees that Tax Parcel 3351400005 shall be dedicated in fee to
the City of Tukwila within 90 days of the effective date of the rezone. The
dedication of this parcel shall survive any reversion of zoning, by virtue of
non compliance with the terms of this agreement.
2) In the event that the rezone is voided, the Comprehensive Plan amendment shall
also be voided. Office designation shall revert to Manufacturing Industrial
Center /Light (Tax 1023049072) and Low Density Residential (Tax
1023049063) without further legislative action.

FILE #L09 -002 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT/REZONE
REZONE CRITERIA:
1. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent with the goals,
objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan
Per the discussion of Comprehensive Plan Criteria (above), the proposed Office zoning is
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, as follows:
Plan Objective #1 —To improve and sustain residential neighborhood
quality and livability
Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement Residential neighborhoods protected from
undue noise impacts, in order to ensure for all residents the continued use,
enjoyment and value of their homes, public facilities and recreation, and the
outdoors.
Residential Neighborhoods Policy 7.3.1 Maintain a comprehensive land
use map that supports the preservation and enhancement of single family
and stable multi family neighborhoods; eliminates incompatible uses; and
clearly establishes applicable development requirements through
recognizable boundaries
Policy 11.1.6 Develop and designate appropriate zoning, buffers,
mitigation and access opportunities where manufacturing zoning directly
abuts or impacts residential zoning so that MIC uses may operate without
significant degradation of the residential environment.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of this title and the description and purpose of the zone classification
applied for.
Per TMC 18.18.010, the requested Office zone is intended to provide for areas
appropriate for professional and administrative offices, mixed with certain retail uses.
Because of the generally light environmental and traffic impacts and daytime use
characteristics of offices, it is further intended that such districts may serve as buffers
between residential districts and commercial and/or industrial areas.
The proposed rezone from Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light (MIC /L) and Low
Density Residential (LDR) will fulfill this purpose by allowing offices to be built.
Attachment F compares the uses permitted in the requested Office with the current
Manufacturing Industrial Center/Light (MIC /L) and Low Density Residential (LDR).
For example, Office zoning permits uses such as office, studios and planned mixed use
development combining retail and office. Restaurants are also permitted uses.
Permitted MIC /L uses include automotive services, heavy equipment repair and salvage,
manufacturing and processing of various kinds, motels, offices, parks, health clubs,
restaurants.
Rf 9 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC .Staff.Rpt.Wooden-- No.P.R.O. 7.14.10 p.m.. doc
36
Although there is some overlap in permitted uses, Office zoning allows a wider range of
uses that are compatible with the nearby residential neighborhood. Office zoning would
generally enable development that offers a better transition to the adjacent Low Density
Residential than the MIC /L zone now provides.
Office requires a 25' front yard setback, while the required setback for both LDR and
MIC/L front yard setback is 20'. The proposed Office zone allows building heights up to
3 stories or 35', vs. 45' or four stories in MIC /L and LDR 30 feet in the LDR.
(Attachment G)
The proposed Office zone requires design review for commercial structures 1, 500 square
feet or larger. Design review is required for the existing MIC /L in proximity to
residential districts and the Duwamish River. Design review is not required for the LDR.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to
warrant the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map
Since the current zoning was established in 1995, the 8.6 acre parcel immediately
adjacent to Parcel 1 was developed as Duwamish Riverbed Hill Park. Zoned MIC /L, the
property had previously been known as Poverty Hill and had been sought for industrial
development with plans to dynamite the hill and its outcropping of bedrock. In 2001, the
Cascade Land Conservancy, the City of Tukwila and a citizen group called Friends of the
Hill formed a partnership to work for the preservation of the hill. In 2004, the property
was purchased by the Cascade Land Conservancy, and transferred to the City of Tukwila
to establish a cultural and natural preserve.
Although the Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park has not been formally rezoned from MIC/L,
it operates as a park, and has a supplemental Public Recreation Overlay zoning.
Establishing the recreational use has isolated Parcel 1 from other MIC /L uses, making an
industrial use less appropriate to the site than before.
4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest of
furtherance of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general
welfare, and will not adversely affect the surrounding neighborhoods, nor be
injurious to other properties in the vicinity in which the subject property is
located
In a broad sense, the office or commercial uses that are permitted in the requested Office
zoning could benefit the region and the community by providing additional employment
opportunities and tax income. The existing Manufacturing/Industrial Center —Light
zoning is not in the best interest of the neighborhood as it permits a light
manufacturing /industrial use adjacent to residential zoning.
Well- designed development under the Office zone would benefit the community more
than the existing vacant residential property, and storage yard. Rather than an isolated
Rf 10 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC. Staff.Rpt.Wooden-- No.P.R.O. -7 14 10 p.m..doc
37
manufacturing /industrial activity, use of both properties as part of a coordinated office
related project could promote public health, safety and comfort through good design.
Office uses, as permitted in the 0 zone have typically lighter environmental impacts and
would provide a more appropriate transition to the LDR zone than the current MIC /L
zoning.
Future development applications for SEPA and Design Review will address specific
impacts such as traffic, parking, and other impacts on abutting property, and provide
Tukwila a clear means to evaluate any future proposed development, accommodate
neighborhood conditions, and avoid adverse impacts to the adjacent properties and the
community.
Contract Rezone: As discussed earlier in this report, the applicant has asked to maintain
the construction storage yard as a legal, non conforming use after the requested rezone to
Office while preparing to redevelop the site. If desired, this could be accomplished
through a contract rezone and a Comprehensive Plan amendment citing the contract
rezone.
The applicant would be required to cease storage yard operations in a set time period
after the rezone becomes effective, and to donate Parcel 2 along the Duwamish to the
City for public use. If the storage yard did not cease operations by the deadline, the
rezone would become void and zoning would revert to the previous MIC/L and LDR.
The small waterfront property would remain in City ownership for public use. These
conditions would serve to protect both community and City interests.
Allowing the contractor storage yard to operate as a legal non conforming use for a set
time period after rezone to Office maintains the status quo without added impact to the
community, and adds an incentive for the applicant to complete construction. If the
conditions are not met, there will be no change in zoning. The contractor yard could
continue to operate as a permitted use in the MIC/L, as is the case now. The public
benefits by the donation of the waterfront parcel in either case.
ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
Office zoning is consistent with existing Comprehensive Plan policies that
support good transitions between industrial/commercial and residential uses,
limit noise impacts on residential uses, and promote stable neighborhoods.
2) Consistency with Zone:
Office zoning allows a broader range of uses that are compatible with the
existing residential neighborhood than Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light
zoning.

W:\Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC.Staff.Rpt.Wooden— No.P.R.O. 7.14.10 p.m..doc
38
3) Chanced conditions:
Development of Duwamish Riverbend Hill Park has isolated Parcel 1 from
other MIC /L zones and uses, making it less likely to develop as an industrial
use.
4) Community interest:
Development that is allowed under the Office would benefit the community
by allowing a wider range of uses with less impact on the surrounding
neighborhood than the uses that are permitted in the current Manufacturing
Industrial Center zoning.
The donation of Parcel 2 would allow Tukwila to gain public land along the
Duwamish river for restoration and possible trail development.
A contract rezone to Office maintains the status quo without added impact to
the community, and adds an incentive for the applicant to complete
construction.
If the conditions are not met, there would be no change in zoning, and the
current MIC /L and LDR remain. The public would not be harmed since the
construction storage yard is already in operation and the existing conditions
remain. The public would benefit from the donation of the waterfront parcel in
either case.
Although not part of the rezone request, it is in the community interest
officially to add the "Public Recreation Overlay" to the Duwamish Riverbend
Hill park property to indicate continued park use.
ZONING RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the following:
Approve a contract rezone of property located at 3912 S. 115 Street (Tax
1023049072) from Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light to Office and property located
at 3814 S. 115 Street (Tax #1023049063) from Low Density Residential to Office
subject to the following requirements:
a) Contractor storage operations shall not be allowed on Tax Lot 1023049063, and
shall be completely removed prior to the effective date of this rezone;
b) The contractor storage yard on Tax lot #1023049072 shall meet all legal
requirements, and shall cease all operation no later than two years (730 days) after
the effective date of the rezone;
c) In the event that all operations of the contractor storage yard are not terminated by
the deadline above, the rezone shall be voided. Office zoning shall revert to
Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light (Tax 1023049072) and Low Density
Residential (Tax 1023049063) without further legislative action.
d) Applicant agrees that Tax Parcel 3351400005 shall be dedicated in fee to the City
of Tukwila within 90 days of the effective date the rezone. The dedication of this
parcel shall survive any, reversion of zoning, by virtue of non compliance with the
terms of this agreement.

PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ADMENDMENT SUMMA.RIF tai
(parcels 1023049072, 3351400005, 1023049063)
The proposed rezone and plan amendment involves three properties located near the
southeast corner of Duwamish Hill Park. Our client, Wooden III LLC, currently owns
three parcels bordering the southeast corner of Duwamish Hill Park. The three
parcels are (A) 3351400005, (B) 1 023049063, and (C) 1023049072. Please refer to
the attached site plan for the parcel locations, shaded in color.
Parcel A is located on the western edge of the residential neighborhood, zoned Low
Density Residential (LDR). It is positioned adjacent to Parcel C, which is currently
zoned Manufacturing, Industrial Center Light (MIC /L).
Parcel B is located on the bank of the Duwamish River, also zoned Manufacturing,
Industrial Center Light (MIC /L). This parcel interrupts a stretch of publicly owned land
along the Duwamish River to the east and west.
Parcel C is located at the southeast corner of Duwamish Hill Park, and zoned
Manufacturing industrial Center Light (MIC /L).
Wooden 11111c proposes a rezone of two of these parcels in the interest of creating a
development opportunity that will both improve the Duwamish Hill Park and support
the adjacent residential neighborhood with a more appropriate and inviting use.
In this proposal, the zoning for Parcels A and C would be changed to Office (0), with
the intention of establishing professional .offices, galleries and /or daycare facilities per
TMC chapter 1 8.18. This zoning change will eliminate the possibility of adverse
MIC /L development at this juncture between the park and the residential
neighborhood.
Further, in the interest of improving the Park and general environment, Wooden 111
would donate Parcel B to the City of Tukwila for integration into its river bank
restoration program and pedestrian trail development, if the proposed Office rezone of
Parcels A and C were to be approved.
This three parcel proposal will benefit the Park, the River and the adjacent residential
neighborhood in three significant respects:
1. A potentially harmful MIC /L future development (gas station, auto repair,
contractor storage, etc) would no longer border the southeast corner of the
Park and adjacent residential neighborhood to the east.
2. In lieu of the MIC /L "island" parcel (meaning a single privately owned parcel
zoned differently than its surroundings), two "Office" zoned parcels would
create a more pedestrian friendly environment, and be more supportive of both
the park and the residential neighborhood.
3. Tukwila would gain public land along the Duwamish River for restoration and
possible trail development, which is currently interrupted by this "island" of
private ownership.
43
73
74
We firmly believe that both the City of Tukwila and the Owner will benefit from this
zoning change and land redistribution. The Director of the Parks Department,
Bruce Fletcher, has reviewed our proposal and has provided a response letter
supporting the proposed rezone.
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AMENDMENT CRITERIA (TMC
18.80.050)
Demonstrate how 'each of the following circumstances justifies a re- designation of
your property or a change in existing Plan policies:
Describe how the issue is addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. if the issue is
not adequatelyaddressed, is there a need for the proposed change?
In recent years Tukwila has acquired and developed Duwamish Hill Park, originally
designated MIC /L land. Although the land is still zoned MiC /L the development of the
public park has had a significant impact on privately owned Parcel A, B and C. The
creation of Duwamish Hill Park separates Parcel C and B from the remaining MIC /L
zone essentially making a small island of MIC /L zoning surrounded by Park and
Residential land. Creating a small island of MIC /L zoning within Park and residential
zoning clearly is not in line with the Comprehensive plan (see response to "An
explanation of why the current comprehensive plan or development regulations are
deficient or should not continue in effect" below).
The proposed rezone would improve the zoning conflict created by the newly
developed Duwamish Hill Park.
Why is the proposed change the best means for meeting the identified public
need? What other options are there for meeting the identified public need?
The proposed change improves an awkward zoning adjacency created by Duwamish
Hill Park. The City's land acquisition of Parcel B is the best possible means of
meeting the public needs associated with the park, trail and Shoreline planning.
While acquiring parcels A and C may also be in the City's best interest, Wooden 111 Ilc
views this as a strong development opportunity. Nonetheless they would be open to
this discussion as well.
Why will the proposed change result in a net benefit to the community? if not,
what type of benefit can be expected and why?
In all cases the proposed rezone is a net gain for the community and landowner.
potentially harmful use adjacent to a Park and residential neighborhood will be
eliminated.
-A combined development site zoned (0) Office will provide employment opportunities
for the community without the harmful industrial use possible with the existing MIC /L
designation.
44
The City will acquire a piece of Duwamish waterfront property that would allow for
future Shoreline development plans and trail projects. See attached "Existing and
Planned Pedestrian and Bike Facilities"
The City's acquisition of Parcel B would eliminate possible industrial development
along the water way adjacent to the City Park.
B. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT CRITERIA (TMC
18.80.010)
A detailed statement of what is proposed and why;
A statement of the anticipated impacts of the change, including the geographic
area affected and the issues presented by the proposed change;
The proposed rezone would eliminate a potential harmful use adjacent to an
established residential neighborhood and newly developed Public Park. With the
creation of Duwamish Hill Park Parcel C and A became an island of MIC /L separated
from the larger MIC zone. The proposed rezone to Office zoning would eliminate
potential harmful uses on the site that may create excessive noise and traffic adjacent
to the park and residential zone. Similar to the MIC /L zoning the proposed (0) Office
would provide opportunities for employment but in a situation much more suited for a
park and residential neighborhood. Both the Park and adjacent residential
neighborhood would benefit from the proposed rezone. The City's acquisition of
Parcel B would also create a continuous section of City owned shoreline that would
directly benefit the adjacent Duwamish Hill Park, LDR neighborhood and general
public.
An explanation of why the current comprehensive plan or development
regulations are deficient or should not continue in effect; (be specific; cite
policy numbers and code sections that apply!)
The proposed rezone is clearly in Tine with a major goal of the Comprehensive Plan,
To improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality and livability." The adjacent
City Park is responsible for creating two privately owned island of MIC /L zoning
adjacent to park and residential propoerty (parcels C and B). By rezoning the
property from MIC /L to Office all potentially harmful industrial uses will be eliminated.
Rezoning the MiC /L to Office would also follow TCP 11.1.6,
Develop and designate appropriate zoning, buffers, mitigation and access opportunities where
manufacturing zoning directly abuts or impacts residential zoning so that MIC uses may operate
without significant degradation of the residential environment.
The existing MIC /L would allow for manufacturing and similar uses that produce a
large amount of noise in conflict with TCP Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement,
7.2.2 Discourage nose levels which are incompatible with current or planned land uses, and
discourage the introduction of new land uses into areas where existing noise levels are incompatible
with such land uses.
7.2.4 Discourage noise levels incompatible with residential neighborhoods.
45
75
76
Rezoning MIC /L to (0) Office would clearly eliminate many potentially disruptive
activities and businesses adjacent to the residential zone and Public Park.
The Tukwila Comprehensive Plan's Shoreline Management priorities would directly
benefit for the City's acquisition of Parcel B. Parcel B is currently zone MIC /L and
could allow for commercial access to the Duwamish River.
Shoreline management Act Priorities per TCP (page 50)
2. Preserve the natural character of the shoreline
4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline
5. Increase public access to the publicly owned areas of the shoreline
6. Increase recreational opportunities for fhe public in the shoreline
The Tukwila Comprehensive Plan map dated 10/29/2008 shows the border of the
MIC along with the Public Recreation overlay at Duwamish Hill Park. A close
examination of the map shows the abnormal zoning condition created by Duwamish
Hill Park at Parcel C and B. Parcel C and B are isolated from the remaining MIC zone
and no longer serve or benefit the surround zoning.
The existing MIC /L zoning for Lot C is inconsistent with the TMC in comparison
to the proposed (0) Office designation:
TMC chapter 18.36.010, MIC /L Purpose:
This district implements the Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light Industrial Comprehensive
Plan designation. It is intended to provide a major employment area containing distributive light
manufacturing and industrial uses and other uses that support those industries. This district's uses and
standards are intended to enhance the redevelopment of the Duwamish Corridor.
Parcel C is currently a small island of MIC /L zoning surrounded by residential
and Public Park property and clearly does not fall inline with the code's intent
to provide a "major employment area containing distributive light manufacturing
and industrial uses"
Tukwila's City Zoning Map currently has multiple conditions where Office zones
directly border LDR zoning. However, MIC /L zones rarely border LDR zones
because of the obvious conflicts. Our proposal removes these adjacencies.
A statement of how the proposed amendment complies with and promotes the
goals and specific requirements of the Growth Management Act;
The proposed rezone falls in line with the goals of the Washington State Growth
Management act:
RCW 36.70A.020
Development on Parcel A and C would provide additional services and employment
opportunities.
46
(1) Urban growth. Encourage development in urban areas where adequate public facilities and
services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner.
A planned office development would provide services and employment opportunities
for the adjacent residential neighborhood.
(5) Economic development. Encourage economic development throughout the state that is consistent
with adopted comprehensive plans, promote economic opportunity for all citizens of this state,
especially for unemployed and for disadvantaged persons, promote the retention and expansion of
existing businesses and recruitment of new businesses, recognize regional differences impacting
economic development opportunities, and encourage growth in areas experiencing insufficient
economic growth, all within the capacities of the state's natural resources, public services, and public
facilities.
An industrial use adjacent to a public park and shoreline environment is an
"incompatible use"
(8) Natural resource industries. Maintain and enhance natural resource -based industries, including
productive timber, agricultural, and fisheries industries. Encourage the conservation of productive
forest lands and productive agricultural lands, and discourage incompatible uses.
Eliminating MIC /L zoning would ensure potentially harmful uses would no longer be
possible on Parcel C and B. The City's acquisition of Parcel B would protect the
shoreline environment and allow for potential shoreline restoration work.

A statement of how the proposed amendment complies with applicable
Countywide Planning Policies;
Eliminating MIC /L zoning on Parcel C and B will help protect the environment.
Providing a development opportunity for an Office use will also serve the economic
growth of the region.
ED -10 Jurisdictions shall adopt economic development and other policies which will
recognize and help protect the environment as a key economic value in the region.
Local policies shall seek to achieve an appropriate balance between the needs for
economic growth and the need for protecting the environment. Local governments are
encouraged to look for ways to work cooperatively with businesses to help then
comply with environmental regulations and to develop policies that result in
environmental protection through regulatory processes that are understandable and
efficient.
The existing zoning for Parcel C and B is in conflict with the Countywide plan allowing
for industrial land to be in direct contact with a non supporting or incompatible use.
47
77

ED-15 Local comprehensive plans should include policies which foster a climate supportive
of the siting needs of industrial users and that recognize the important role they play in
creating high -wage jobs. Local plans are encouraged to include policies designed to
ensure that industrial use of industrial -zone land is not unduly encroached upon or
limited by non supporting or incompatible uses.
Arguably Parcels C and B are not "sized for manufacturing /industrial uses now that
Duwamish Hill Park isolates the parcels from the remainder of the MIC zone.
5. Manufacturing /Industrial Center Criteria
LU -52 Each jurisdiction which contains a regional Manufacturing /industrial Center shall
adopt in Its comprehensive plan a definition of the Center which specifies the exact
geographic boundaries of the Center. Jurisdictions with Manufacturing /Industrial
Centers shall have zoning and detailed plans in place to achieve the following goals by
the year 2010.
a. Preserve and encourage the aggregation of vacant or non manufacturing /industrial
land parcels sized for manufacturing/industrial uses;
L U -58 Jurisdictions' comprehensive plans for regional Manufacturing/Industrial
Parcels C and B have no buffers from the adjacent park and residential neighborhood
Centers shall demonstrate compliance with the criteria. in order to promote manufacturing/
industrial growth, the Manufacturing /Industrial Center plan for each jurisdiction
shall establish strategies:
c. To provide buffers around the Center to reduce conflicts with adjacent land uses;
A statement of what changes, if any, would be required in functional plans (Le.,
the City's water, sewer, storm water or shoreline plans) if the proposed
amendment is adopted;
The proposed rezone would not increase 'utility needs relative to the existing M1C /L
zoning. The City's Shoreline plan would benefit from the acquisition of Parcel B.
Proposed Shoreline restoration and trail projects would be feasible with a continuous
City owned shoreline.
A statement of what capital improvements, if any, would be needed to support
the proposed change, and how the proposed change will affect the capital
facilities plans of the City;
No capitol improvements will be necessary for the proposed rezone.

Parcel. C is located at the southeast corner of Duwamish Hill Park, and zoned
Manufacturing, Industrial Center Light (MiC /L).
Wooden iII ilc proposes a rezone of two of these parcels in the interest of creating a
development opportunity that will both improve the Duwamish Hill Park and support
the adjacent residential neighborhood with a more appropriate and inviting use.
PROPOSED REZONE SUMMARY: z
(parcels 1023049072, 3351400005, 1023049063)
DEVELOPMENT
The proposed rezone involves three properties located near the southeast corner of
Duwamish Hill Park. Our client, Wooden 111 LLC, currently owns three parcels near
the southeast corner of Duwamish Hill Park. The three parcels are (A) 3351400005,
(B) 1023049063, and (C) 1023049072. Please refer to the attached site plan for the
parcel locations, shaded in color.
Parcel A is located on the western edge of the residential neighborhood, zoned Low
Density Residential (LDR). it is positioned adjacent to Parcel C, which is currently
zoned Manufacturing, Industrial Center Light (MIC /L).
Parcel B is located on the bank of the Duwamish River, also zoned Manufacturing,
Industrial Center Light (M1C /L). This parcel interrupts a stretch of publicly owned land
along the Duwamish River to the east and west.
In this proposal, the zoning for Parcels A and C would be changed to Office (0), with
the intention of establishing professional offices, galleries and /or daycare facilities per
TMC chapter 18.18. This zoning change will eliminate the possibility of adverse
MIC /L development at this juncture between the park and the residential
neighborhood.
Further, in the interest of improving the Park and general environment, Wooden III
would donate Parcel B to the City of Tukwila for integration into its river bank
restoration program and pedestrian trail development, if the proposed Office rezone of
Parcels A and C were to be approved.
This three parcel proposal will benefit the Park, the River and the adjacent residential
neighborhood in three significant respects:
1. A potentially harmful MIC /L future development (gas station, auto repair,
contractor storage, etc) would no longer border the southeast corner of the
Park and adjacent residential neighborhood to the east.
2. In lieu of the MIC /L "island" parcel (meaning a single privately owned parcel
zoned differently than its surroundings), two "Office" zoned parcels would
create a more pedestrian friendly environment, and be more supportive of both
the park and the residential neighborhood.
3. Tukwila would gain public land along the Duwamish River for restoration and
possible trail development, which is currently interrupted by this "island" of
private ownership.
51
81
We firmly believe that both the City of Tukwila and the Owner will benefit from this
zoning change and land redistribution. The Director of the Parks Department,
Bruce Fletcher, has reviewed our proposal and has provided a response letter
supporting the proposed rezone.
A. ZONING AMENDMENT CRITERIA (TMC 18.84.030)
Demonstrate how each of the following circumstances justifies a rezone of your
property or a change in the existing Zoning Code.
Each determination granting a rezone shall be supported by written findings
and conclusions showing specifically wherein all of the following conditions
exist:
1. That the proposed amendment to the zonina man is consistent
with the coals. obiectives. and policies of the comprehensive plan:
The proposed rezone is aligned with a primary goal of the Comprehensive Plan: "To
improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality and livability." By rezoning.the
property from MIC /L to Office many potential harmful uses will no longer be allowed
adjacent to existing homes. In addition the donation of Parcel B will allow Tukwila to
implement shoreline trails and restoration plans that would directly benefit the
adjacent residential neighborhood.
Rezoning the MIC /L to Office would also follow TCP 11.1.6,
Develop and designate appropriate zoning, buffers, mitigation and access opportunities where
manufacturing zoning directly abuts or impacts residential zoning so that MIC uses may operate
without significant degradation of the residential environment.
The existing MIC /L could create a significant noise conflict with the adjacent park and
residential neighborhood: Rezoning to (0) Office would mitigate this potential noise
disturbance. TCP Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement states,
7.2.2 Discourage nose levels which are incompatible with current or planned land uses, and
discourage the introduction of new land uses into areas where existing noise levels are incompatible
with such land uses.
7.2.4 Discourage noise levels incompatible with residential neighborhoods.
Rezoning MIC /L to (0) Office would eliminate many potentially disruptive activities
and businesses adjacent to the residential zone.
The Tukwila Comprehensive Plan's Shoreline Management priorities would directly
benefit for the City's acquisition of Parcel B along the Duwamish River,
Shoreline management Act Priorities per TCP (page 50)
82 2. Preserve the natural character of the shoreline
4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline
52
5. Increase public access to the publicly owned areas of the shoreline
6. Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shoreline
The Tukwila Comprehensive Plan map dated 10/29/2008 shows the border of the
MIC along with the Public Recreation overlay. A close examination of the map shows
the abnormal zoning condition created by Duwamish Hill Park. Parcel C is isolated
from the remaining MIC zone and no longer serves or benefits the surround MIC
zone.
2. That the proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent
with the scone and purpose of this title and the description and
purpose of the zone classification applied for:
The existing MIC /L zoning for Lot C is not consistent with the TMC in
comparison to the proposed (0) Office designation:
TMC chapter 18.36.010, MIC /L Purpose:
This district implements the Manufacturing Industrial Center /Light Industrial Comprehensive
Plan designation. It is intended to provide a major employment area containing distributive light
manufacturing and industrial uses and other uses that support those industries. This district's uses and
standards are intended to enhance the redevelopment of the Duwamish Corridor.
Parcel C is currently a small island of MIC /L zoning surrounded by residential
and Public Park property and clearly does not fall inline with the code's intent
to provide a "major employment area containing distributive light manufacturing
and industrial uses"
The proposed (0) Office designation for parcel C and A will serve and support
the residential neighborhood.
Tukwila's City Zoning Map currently has multiple conditions where Office zones
directly border LDR zone. However, MIC /L. zones rarely border LDR zones
because of the obvious conflicts. Our proposal removes these potential
conflicts.
3. That there are chanced conditions since the previous zoninci
became effective to warrant the proposed amendment to the
zoning mag.: and
The adjacent parcel 1023049057 (Park) was originally zoned MIC /L. Along
with adjacent parcels this created a very large multi acre industrial area along
the Duwamish River. Although the property has not been formally rezoned,
parcel 1023049057 is now Duwamish Hill Park owned by the City of Tukwila.
Converting parcel 1023049057 to Public Park isolated parcel C and B creating
two islands of MIC /L zoning. The proposed rezone will eliminate the potential
adverse impacts of MIC /L development at this juncture between the newly
developed park and the adjacent residential neighborhood.
4. That the proposed amendment to the zoning mad will be in the interest of
furtherance of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and
53
83
84
general welfare. and will not adversely affect the surrounding
neighborhood. nor be incurious to other properties in the vicinity in which
the subject property is located.
This three parcel proposal will benefit the Park, the River and the adjacent residential
neighborhood in three significant respects:
1. A potentially harmful MIC /L future development (gas station, auto repair,
contractor storage, etc) will be removed from the southeast corner of the Park.
2. In lieu of the MIC /L "island" parcel, two "Office" zoned parcels would create a
more pedestrian friendly environment, and be more supportive of both the park
and the residential neighborhood.
a. Tukwila's Walk and Roll program has developed a master plan to
provide future sidewalks along Parcel C &A. Clearly the future sidewalks
and pedestrian plan would be better served by an Office zoning
compared to the purpose of the MIC/L zone which may include large
trucks and delivery traffic. "MIC /L" "lt is intended to provide a major
employment area containing distributive light manufacturing and industrial uses and
other uses that support those industries."
3. Tukwila would gain parcel B along the Duwamish for restoration and possible
trail development. Tukwila's trail and shoreline restoration plans are currently
interrupted by Wooden .111 Ilc's "island" of private ownership along the
Duwamish waterfront.
a. Per Tukwila's Walk and Roll program a trail has already been proposed
crossing Parcel B (see attached map from Tukwila's Walk and Roll
program)
b. The Duwamish Hill master plan originally designed by Jones and Jones
Architects shows a potential shoreline restoration and beach access
along S. 115 St that would include Parcel B
The proposed rezone will eliminate adverse industrial impacts to the Park and
adjacent residential zone while expanding the public lands that will be critical in
future public development projects.

Dear Mr. Johns,
I agree with your assumptions that by rezoning two parcels (335140005 and
1023049072) to Office zone would benefit the City of Tukwila's shoreline and the
Duwamish Riverbend Park property. The Tukwila Parks system would also
benefit with the donation of the riverfront property (1023049063).
It is my suggestion to schedule a meeting with myself and the Directors of Public
Works and Department of Community Development to further investigate the
proposed zoning change and land donation.
Please feel free to contact me at (206)767 -2343 if I can be of further assistance

1 am here commenting on the proposed re- zoning of the parcels generally located at 3914 So. 115 Street.
To whom it may concern:
I am wondering why we need an office space zoning in an area mostly residential, when there is a glut
of empty office space in areas that are alredy in an office space zoning. I an particularly affected as the
parcels in question are right across the river from me and this would change my view from an almost
pristine view to an office building looking down into my river property. On top of that, a park {Tukwila
Riverbend Park} is right next to the parcel and office space does not fend itself to the local environment
layout.
Another concern: The sewer, I believe, hasn't reached the parcel in question and it falls dangerously
close to the buffer zone cr4eated by the Shoreline Mast3er Program proposal.
Please don't mar our view on the river and add office space potential where it isn't needed or wanted.

Sirs:
i am writing in opposition on the zoning change of the property located at South 115th
Street and 40th Avenue South.
The Health of Wacker Hill
The Hill is correctly named Walker Hill in most plot and geological maps. The area is
commonly called `Poverty Hill'. This name is used by all, but this name is used for a
historically residential area.
This area has seen little change. It is only in the last year that to the west of the property
the historical house that served as a store to the original settlers of this valley was
demolished and replaced by containers that have been wired with temporary service
poles and served With portable toilets. Hardly a development worthy for any
neighborhood.
The new park opening signals to all who pass on South 115th Street the changes that
are uplifting Walker Hill. We have seen many properties remodeled, some to be sold to
folks eager to join a community that is centered on the services and employment of the
Greater Seattle Metropolitan .Area. We know that the `Old AG' warehouse is a
development site that will greatly, improve the area, perhaps including a light rail station.
My thinking is that the health of Walker Hill will be harmed by a development that is not
residential. The county would entertain the permit process for septic tanks for a
residential project. Water and power is available. The property is developable as a
residential project.
I wish to point out that perhaps some property owners of Walker Hill may have thoughts
of using their future appreciation values of their holding. How can this best be served? 1
point to the 'AG' property and the vast plan unveiled by the Segale Family. These
projects have ample space and plans for office buildings, they do not need residential
property for office space. What they will need is housing for the new employees to serve
these projects. My thought is the office project will not provide value to residential
property owners; indeed, this office project will detract from this homogeneous
believe the 'ducks are now in a row' and I think it is time for the zoning board to support
the residential nature of our community and the property owners investments.

I am here commenting on the proposed re- zoning of the parcels generally located at 3914 So. 115 Street.
To whom it may concern:
I am wondering why we need an office space zoning in an area mostly residential, when there is a glut
of empty office space in areas that are alredy in an office space zoning. I am particularly affected as the
parcels in question are right across the river from me and this would change my view from an almost
pristine view to an office building looking down into my river property. On top of that, a park {Tukwila
Riverbend Park} is right next to the parcel and office space does not lend itself to the local environment
layout.
Another concern: The sewer, I believe, hasn't reached the parcel in question and it falls dangerously
close to the buffer zone cr4eated by the Shoreline Mast3er Program proposal.
Please don't mar our view on the river and add office space potential where it isn't needed or wanted.

Sirs:
i am writing in opposition on the zoning change of the property located at South 115th
Street and 40th Avenue South.
The Health of Walker Hill
The Hill is correctly named Walker Hill in most plot and geological maps. The area is
commonly called 'Poverty Hill'. This name is used by all, but this name is used for a
historically residential area.
This area has seen little change. It is only in the last year that to the west of the property
the historical house that served as a store to the original settlers of this valley was
demolished and replaced by containers that have been wired with temporary service
poles and served With portable toilets. Hardly a development worthy for any
neighborhood.
The new park opening signals to all who pass on South 115th Street the changes that
are uplifting Walker Hill. We have seen many properties remodeled, some to be sold to
folks eager to join a community that is centered on the services and employment of the
Greater Seattle Metropolitan. Area. We know that the 'Old AG' warehouse is a
development site that will greatly improve the area, perhaps including a light rail station.
My thinking is that the health of Walker Hill will be harmed by a development that is not
residential. The county would entertain the permit process for septic tanks for a
residential project. Water and power is available. The property is developable as a
residential project.
I wish to point out that perhaps some property owners of Walker Hill may have thoughts
of using their future appreciation values of their holding. How can this best be served? 1
point to the 'AG' property and the vast plan unveiled by the Segale Family. These
projects have ample space and plans for office buildings, they do not need residential
property for office space. What they will need is housing for the new employees to serve
these projects. My thought is the office project will not provide value to residential
property owners; indeed, this office project will detract from this homogeneous
believe the 'ducks are now in a row' and I think it is time for the zoning board to support
the residential nature of our community and the property owners investments.

1 agree with your assumptions that by rezoning two parcels (335140005 and
1023049072) to Office zone would benefit the City of Tukwila's shoreline and the
Duwamish Riverbend Park property. The Tukwila Parks system would also
benefit with the donation of the riverfront property (1023049063).
It is my suggestion to schedule a meeting with myself and the Directors of Public
Works and Department of Community Development to further investigate the
proposed zoning change and land donation.

FINDINGS
Background and Project Description
The applicant, Barry Becker /Macadam LLC, is requesting to redesignate one vacant
parcel from Commercial /Light Industrial (C /LI) to Medium Density Residential (MDR)
at 4300 S. 133 Street, Tukwila, WA (Parcel 261320- 0131).
The applicant is seeking the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone in order to
develop the property for residential use. He believes that a residential use would be
more appropriate to the site, and provide a better buffer for adjacent single family uses
than the commercial and light industrial uses allowed under the current Comprehensive
Plan and zoning. (Attachments A and B)
The property is the site of an ongoing code violation that includes removing vegetation,
placing illegal fill and parking construction vehicles in the stream buffer, and wetland
buffer. In order to remedy these issues, the applicant applied for and has received a 50%
buffer reduction that allows him to perform work to mitigate impacts to the wetland and
buffer, and to enhance the buffer. These actions will correct the code violation and
increase developable space on the site. The applicant is required to make significant
progress in mitigating the impacts of the code violation and enhancing the buffer as a
condition of the buffer reduction, and to proceed with consideration of the
Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone. After delays caused by wet spring weather,
the applicant is making good progress in correcting the required code violations. The
mitigation and improvements shall be completed by the end of the planting season.
A contract rezone and Comprehensive Plan amendment can be used to stipulate that all
code- related work be complete by a date certain a condition of the change from
Commercial/Light Industrial to Medium Density Residential. This will ensure that all
needed work is accomplished, and will provide the applicant with further incentive for
completing all the work in a timely manner, while protecting the City's interests. In the
event that wetland and watercourse mitigation and improvement is not completed as
required, the Comprehensive Plan designation and rezone will revert to the prior
designation.
The Community Affairs and Parks Committee was briefed on June 14, 2010 and the issue
was forwarded to the City Council. After taking comments at a public meeting on June
28, 2010, the City Council deliberated on July 6, 2010, and forwarded the issue to the
Planning Commission for review. (Attachment C)
Vicinity /Site Information
Site: The property is located on the corner of 44 Avenue South and S. 133 Street (4300
S. 133 Street). The property is bounded on three sides by S. 132 Street to the north,
44 Avenue South to the east, and S. 133 Street to the south. Macadam Road, to the
Rf 2 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC .Staff.Rpt.Macadam Becker..doc
79
west of the property, crosses over S. 133 via a bridge. The 1.72 acre site is vacant
except for a wooden garage that is associated with the single family house located on the
adjacent lot, also owned by the applicant, immediately to the west. The subject C /LI
property and the adjacent LDR lot are essentially an "island" surrounded by roadway on
all sides, and separated from both nearby commercial /light industrial and residential uses.
The majority of the subject property contains environmentally sensitive areas, including
Southgate Creek, a Type 2 salmon- bearing stream, a Type 2 wetland associated with the
stream, and their associated buffer areas. The buffer for a Type 2 stream is 100 feet, and
the buffer for a Type 2 wetland is 80 feet. The site also includes a steep slope with
moderate potential for geologic instability. The applicant has applied for and received a
50% buffer reduction, which makes the stream buffer 50', and the wetland buffer 40.'
Vicinity: The property is located approximately a block west of Interurban Avenue and
SR 599. It marks the boundary between Commercial/Light Industrial (C /LI) zoning and
uses, and Low Density Residential (LDR) zoning and single family homes. A cluster of
commercial and light industrial uses, including Ace Construction, Far West Paint,
Marshall Tool and Supply, Alaska Air Forwarding, Bay Valve Service and Normed are
located in the surrounding C/LI zone to the north, south and east.
Topography separates the subject property from single family homes that are
immediately west of the property, and across Macadam Road/43 Avenue South.
Riverton Park is west across Macadam Road, and the Church of Neziah is in the next
block. Medium Density and High Density zones are found west across 40 Avenue
South.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA
Planning Commission review is required for Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code
amendments. The Planning Commission may recommend approval, recommend
approval with conditions or recommend denial of the amendment based on a clear
compliance with the criteria that follow. The Planning Commission's recommendation
will be forwarded to the City Council, which will make the final decision. (TMC 18.80
and 18.84)
1) Describe how the issue is addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. If the issue is
not adequately addressed, is there a need for it?
The proposed Comprehensive Plan change from C /LI to MDR is not specifically
addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, although the need for a variety of housing stock
and healthy neighborhoods is. The rezone would allow new multi family housing to be
built.
Four broad reaching objectives are the basis for the elements, goals and policies for
Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan's primary objective is
preserving and enhancing Tukwila's neighborhoods. The Comprehensive Plan states the
following:
Rf 3 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\PC .Staff.Rpt.Macadam Becker..doc
80
Comprehensive Plan Objective #1: "To improve and sustain residential neighborhood
quality and livability."
Under Medium Density Residential (MDR) designation, multi family homes, including
owner- occupied townhomes, provide opportunities for individuals and families to live in
and contribute to the community. Neighborhood residential quality and livability can be
enhanced with the proposed MDR zoning by allowing multi family housing, including
townhomes to be built. Future development in the MDR zone could add additional
housing choices to the community.
Housing Goal 3.1: Continue to provide the City's fair share of regional housing.
MDR zoning would allow multi family housing to be built on the site.
Housing Policy 3.1.1. Provide sufficient zoned housing potential to accommodate future
single -and multi family households.
This policy speaks to the need to provide adequate amounts of residentially -zoned land,
and to provide housing choice for future residents. Multi- family or single family housing
could be built with the MDR designation, consistent with this Comprehensive Plan
policy.
Residential Neighborhoods Policy 7.3.1 Maintain a comprehensive land use map that
supports the preservation and enhancement of single-family and stable multi family
neighborhoods; eliminates incompatible uses; and clearly establishes applicable
development requirements through recognizable boundaries.
This policy demonstrates the community's commitment to residential neighborhoods,
including multi family. Much of the site contains environmentally sensitive streams and
wetlands that limit its development potential. It is not likely that a commercial/light
industrial use could be located at the site. The requested Medium Density Residential
could provide an effective transition between the Commercial /Light Industrial on the
east, and the Low Density Residential on the west.
Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement—Residential neighborhoods protected from undue noise
impacts, in order to ensure for all residents the continued use, enjoyment and value of their
homes, public facilities and recreation, and the outdoors.
The proposed MDR zoning provides the opportunity for new residential development to
transition away from the neighboring Commercial/Light Industrial zoning and uses.
Rf 4 07/15/2010
W: \Users\ Minnie \Minnie -PC Staff Reports\PC .Staff.Rpt.Macadam Becker..doc
81
2) Impacts
MDR would allow housing on the now -vacant site. MDR zoning permits a maximum of
14.5 units per acre. With a stream, a wetland and their associated buffers on the property,
the number of potential housing units that could be built would be much lower than the
maximum allowed. The applicant's schematic drawing shows four units on the 1.75 acre
site. Any future development would be carefully sited. If desired, a Planned Residential
Development (PRD) could be built to make best use of the site's natural environment,
and to encourage efficiency in the layout of housing and public improvements. This
would increase the overall housing stock in Tukwila.
The request is considered a downzone, and the potential impact of allowing housing units
in the proposed MDR zoning is generally less than the impacts of the existing
commercial and light industrial uses in the immediate vicinity. Any future multi family
development on the site would add some traffic and noise. The location of the
environmentally sensitive areas dictate that new housing will be built on the westem
portion of the site, farthest from commercial and industrial activity in the
Commercial/Light Industrial Zone.
The proposed medium density residential designation will provide a better transition to
the adjacent low density residential, than the existing commercial/light industrial
designation, would bring new residents to the neighborhood and has potentially fewer
impacts on the adjacent single family homes.
3) Is the proposed change the best means for meeting the identified public need?
What other options are there for meeting the identified public need?
The public need and the State of Washington Growth Management Act requirement for
additional housing opportunities and choices could be accommodated by designating the
property as MDR. With careful site design, perhaps through a Planned Residential
Development (PRD) and/or in combination with the adjacent property, several homes
could be constructed on the western portion of the property while leaving the stream and
wetland intact.
The community's need for housing could also be met by designating the property Low
Density Residential (LDR), like the western portion of the block.
Altemately, the public need for businesses that produce employment and revenue might
be met by retaining the existing C /LI designation and developing the site for commercial
purposes. The environmentally sensitive areas that cover most of the site have limited
commercial development, and will likely continue to do so.
4) Will the proposed change result in a net benefit to the community? If not, what
result can be expected and why?
The proposed change will benefit the community by allowing housing to be built. The
current C /LI designation immediately adjacent to LDR is an abrupt transition. MDR
could provide a more gradual and appropriate transition from commercial and light
industrial uses to housing. This could benefit the residential community.
Rf 5 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports \PC .Staff.Rpt.Macadam- Becker..doc
82
A Planned Residential Development, permitted under the Medium Density Residential
zoning could be built to make best use of the site's natural environment, and to encourage
efficiency in the layout of housing and public improvements.
Changing the existing C/LI designation removes the option of future job producing
business on the site.
CONCLUSIONS
In reviewing Comprehensive Plan criteria, staff concludes that:
1) Is the issue addressed in the Comprehensive Plan? Is it needed?
Comprehensive Plan objectives, goals and policies acknowledge the need for
Tukwila to retain residential neighborhoods, to provide needed regional housing,
to retain adequate land zoned "residential and to provide housing in a stable
neighborhood.
The proposed Comprehensive Plan change/Rezone from CLI to MDR is not currently
addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, although the need for a variety of housing
stock and healthy neighborhoods is. The MDR zoning could provide a transition
between single family zoning to the west, and light industrial zoning to the east.
2) Impacts?
New housing units would increase traffic and noise, but this is likely to be less
than the impact of future commercial/light industrial activity on the site.
Specific redevelopment plans will undergo environmental, design review and
building permit review to address potential impacts.
3) Meeting identified public need? Other options?
Designating new Medium Density Residential provides the option of additional
housing for the area.
Housing could be provided by designating the property as Low Density
Residential (LDR)
Retaining the Commercial /Light Industrial zoning retains the somewhat distant
option of eventual employment and revenue producing development.
4) Benefit to the community?
The proposed change will create the opportunity for an increased supply of new
housing and housing options which benefits the community.
New development that enhances the site's environmental characteristics benefits the
community.
The change to housing use, will remove the opportunity for a commercial /light

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the following:
Approve the Comprehensive Plan Map amendment of property located at 4300 S.
133 Street (Tax 2613200131) from Commercial /Light Industrial to Medium
Density Residential with the following conditions:
1) All requirements of the following contract rezone must be met including:
a. All code violation issues, including the conditions outlined in the Special
Permission Director (File L09 -014) are to be completed by the applicant
and finalized by the City of Tukwila by December 1, 2010.
b. In the event that the above condition is not met by the deadline above, the
rezone shall be voided. Medium Density Residential zoning shall revert to
Commercial/Light Industrial without further legislative action.
2) In the event that the contract rezone is voided, the Comprehensive Plan Medium
Density Residential designation shall revert to Commercial/Light Industrial
without further legislative action.
FILE #L10 -002 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT/REZONE
REZONE CRITERIA:
1. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent with the goals,
objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
Per the discussion of Comprehensive Plan Criteria (above), both the existing MDR
zoning and the proposed HDR zoning are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, as
follows:
Plan Objective #1 —To improve and sustain residential neighborhood
quality and livability
Goal 3.1 Continue to provide the City's fair share of regional housing
Policy 3.1.1 Provide sufficient zoned housing potential to accommodate
future single- and multi family households.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of this title and the description and purpose of the zone classification
applied for.
Per TMC 18.12.010 Purpose, the requested Medium Density Residential (MDR) district
is "intended to provide areas for family and group residential uses, and serves as an
alternative to lower density family residential housing and more intensively developed
group housing and related uses...
Multi family duplex, triplex, fourplex units, townhouses up to four attached units, or
detached zero -lot -line units are permitted with heights up to 30 feet. One detached
Rf 7 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports\ PC.Staff.Rpt.Macadam- Becker..doc
84
single family dwelling unit is permitted per lot. This type of development is consistent
with the Medium Density Residential (MDR) zoning that is requested.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to
warrant the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map.
The current commercial/light industrial zoning has not produced new development.
The development of the nearby Riverton Park provides an amenity that supports
additional residential development. The applicant is providing mitigation and
improvements to the wetland, watercourse and buffers that are required in order to correct
code violations. Once these mitigation and improvement actions are complete, the site
will be especially well- suited to a carefully -sited multi family residential development, or
Planned Residential Development (PRD).
4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest of
furtherance of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general
welfare, and will not adversely affect the surrounding neighborhoods, nor be
injurious to other properties in the vicinity in which the subject property is
located.
In a broad sense, allowing additional, denser multi family housing to be built could
benefit the region and the community by providing additional housing choices and tax
income. Well designed multi family residential development would benefit the
community more than the existing vacant property. Measures to facilitate redevelopment
of the vacant property as part of a coordinated townhouse or other housing project
promote public health, safety and comfort through good design. Site specific
development will be planned carefully to accommodate both site specific and
neighborhood conditions.
Future site development applications for SEPA and Design Review will address specific
impacts such as traffic, parking, and other impacts on abutting property. Environmental
review, design review with a Board of Architectural Review hearing and public
involvement will provide Tukwila a clear mechanism to evaluate any future proposed
development, and to mitigate potential negative impacts to the adjacent properties and the
community.
ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistency with Comnrehensive Plan:
The proposed MDR zoning is consistent with existing Comprehensive Plan
policies that support stable neighborhoods, more housing, and offer a range
of housing types.
Rf 8 07/15/2010
W: \Users\Minnie\Minnie -PC Staff Reports PC .Staff.Rpt.Macadam- Becker..doc
85
2) Consistency with Zone:
The desired multi family residential zoning permits a range of housing to be
built, including duplex, tri-plex, four -plex and townhouses.
3) Changed conditions:
Additional emphasis is placed on providing additional choices in housing type
and ownership for current and future Tukwila residents.
4) Community interest:
New housing development is in the community interest.
Residential development that is sensitive to the site's environmental
characteristics benefits the community.
ZONING RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the following:
Approval of the Zoning map amendment for property located at 4300 S. 133 Street
(Tax 2613200131) from Commercial/Light Industrial to Medium Density
Residential with the following conditions:
a) All code violation issues, including the conditions outlined in the Special
Permission Director (File L09 -014) are to be completed by the applicant and
finalized by the City of Tukwila by December 1, 2010.
b) In the event that the above condition is not met by the deadline above, the
rezone shall be voided. Medium Density Residential zoning shall revert to
Commercial /Light Industrial without further legislative action.

Re; Proposed Macadam LLC property development, short plat, rezone from Commercial Light
Industrial to MDR and wetland enhancement buffer reduction project located at 4300 S. 133 St
(tax Parcel 26 -13 -20 -0131) and contiguous with LDR property owned to West 13136 Macadam
Rd S. (Tax Parcel 734060 -0722) in Tukwila Washington.
A) Comprehensive plan Amendment Criteria
1) We propose a Comprehensive plan change rezone for the East half of property from
Commercial light Industrial to MDR to make the single owner contiguous property all
residential which will be Tess environmental impact and topographically contiguous with
the existing residential. (The West half of property will remain LDR)
2) This proposed Comprehensive Plan change will meet the need of the community by
providing affordable housing.
3) The Proposed Change will be net benefit to the community by providing Medium Density
Residential buffer between the existing Commercial Light industrial and the LDR to the
West thus increasing LDR property values adjacent to the West and surrounding area.
B) Comprehensive Plan Amendment Criteria
1) We propose a Comprehensive plan Amendment and Zone Change to Residential
from Commercial Light Industrial to make very small available Industrial area
(that is left after wetland buffers and Creek buffers) contiguous with adjacent
property existing residential zoning. The Industrial property that is currently
available is not adequate size to be developed for Commercial light industrial
and is topographically cut off from the adjacent industrial properties to the east
and South by a wetland and South Gate Creek. Thus it makes sense to make it
Residential.
2) The anticipated impacts of new residential development will be minimize by for
example we will provide onsite drainage that will mitigate impact on the City
storm drain system and provide eco friendly wetland improvements and passive
energy designed houses.
3) The current Comprehensive plan designation is deficient because the available
industrial or commercial area is cut off by a small hill and wetland stream to the
rest of the C/LR to the East. (Thus commercial traffic access through residential).
4) This proposal will work within the Growth Management Act and comply with
requirements that may be identified. It will offer affordable residents with
community enhancing inward focusing design to promote neighborhood and
wellbeing safety.
5) This proposal provides goals that are specific in county planning such as
following King County on site drainage requirements and wetland enhancement.
6) This proposal should have low to no impact on City infrastructure. With our
proposed on site drainage we will have minimal impact on the storm drain system
detention capacity and addition of 7 additional structures, residential sewer should
be small percentage capacity increase with existing sewer and water laterals
available in the adjacent streets.
7) This proposal should be minimal impact to City required capital improvements.
8) There are no other requested changes in City Code or regulations at this time.

Re; Proposed Macadam LLC property development, short plat, rezone from Commercial Light
Industrial to MDR and wetland enhancement buffer reduction project located at 4300 S. 133` St
(tax Parcel 26 -13 -20 -0131) and contiguous with LDR property owned to West 13136 Macadam
Rd S. (Tax Parcel 734060 -0722) in Tukwila Washington.
A) Zone Amendment Criteria
1) This Requested Zone change is consistent with the Comprehensive plan policies
in that we will be providing a less environmentally impacting project that is closer
in 'adjacent contiguous use that is residential.
2) The title and description of the zone map changes are consistent with the zone use
classification requested that shall be medium density residential which will
complement and enhance the adjacent Low density residential directly to the west.
3) There are nuances to and changed conditions of zoning layout that cannot be fully
understood at initial time of designation. For example, the newer Sensitive Area
Ordinance and environmental setbacks and property development restrictions now
change how this property can be accessed and developed. In the past we could
develop buildings in the wetland area and put roads and bridge across streams
without much restriction. With the new wetland restrictions and Buffer
requirements, the area remaining for Commercial Industrial use is cut off from the
Industrial to the East. Therefore in order to use as currently Zoned we would need
to provide Commercial industrial traffic through the residential neighborhood and
LDR on the upper half of site.
4) This proposed Zone change will be in the best interest and welfare of the public
safety by providing a lower impact use. The development will also provide
inward focused community and neighborhood building design layout that will
promote safety and prowler visibility. This will also build and light previous
vacant lot area that will make it more safe.

Commercial Light Industrial to Medium Density Residential at 4300 S. 133rd
Background and Project Description
The applicant, Barry Becker /Macadam LLC, is requesting to redesignate one vacant parcel from
Commercial/Light Industrial (C /LI) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) at 4300 S. 133
Street, Tukwila, WA (Parcel 261320- 0131).
The applicant is seeking the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone in order to develop the
property for residential use. He believes that a residential use would be more appropriate to the
site, and provide a better buffer for adjacent single family uses than the commercial and light
industrial uses allowed under the current Comprehensive Plan and zoning. (Attachments A and
B)
The property is the site of an ongoing code violation that includes removing vegetation, placing
illegal fill and parking construction vehicles in the stream buffer, and wetland buffer. In order to
remedy these issues, the applicant applied for and has received a 50% buffer reduction that
allows him to perform work to mitigate impacts to the wetland and buffer, and to enhance the
buffer. These actions will correct the code violation and increase developable space on the site.
The applicant is required to make significant progress in mitigating the impacts of the code
violation and enhancing the buffer as a condition of the buffer reduction, and to proceed with
consideration of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone. After delays caused by wet
spring weather, the applicant is making good progress in correcting the required code violations.
The mitigation and improvements shall be completed by the end of the planting season.
A contract rezone and Comprehensive Plan amendment can be used to stipulate that all code
related work be complete by a date certain a condition of the change from Commercial/Light
Industrial to Medium Density Residential. This will ensure that all needed work is
accomplished, and will provide the applicant with further incentive for completing all the work
in a timely manner, while protecting the City's interests. In the event that wetland and
watercourse mitigation and improvement is not completed as required, the Comprehensive Plan
designation and rezone will revert to the prior designation.
The Community Affairs and Parks Committee was briefed on June 14, 2010 and the issue was
forwarded to the City Council. After taking comments at a public meeting on June 28, 2010, the
City Council deliberated on July 6, 2010, and forwarded the issue to the Planning Commission
for review. (Attachment C)
Vicinity /Site Information
Site: The property is located on the corner of 44 Avenue South and S. 133r Street (4300 S.
133 Street). The property is bounded on three sides by S. 132 Street to the north, 44 Avenue
South to the east, and S. 133 Street to the south. Macadam Road, to the west of the property,
crosses over S. 133 via a bridge. The 1.72 acre site is vacant except for a wooden garage that is
associated with the single family house located on the adjacent lot, also owned by the applicant,
W: \Word Processing \Ordinances \Comp Plan Amend Macadam 1.doc
RF:mrh 08/13/2010
Page 1 of 6
107
immediately to the west. The subject C /LI property and the adjacent LDR lot are essentially an
"island" surrounded by roadway on all sides, and separated from both nearby commercial/light
industrial and residential uses.
The majority of the subject property contains environmentally sensitive areas, including
Southgate Creek, a Type 2 salmon bearing stream, a Type 2 wetland associated with the stream,
and their associated buffer areas. The buffer for a Type 2 stream is 100 feet, and the buffer for a
Type 2 wetland is 80 feet. The site also includes a steep slope with moderate potential for
geologic instability. The applicant has applied for and received a 50% buffer reduction, which
makes the stream buffer 50', and the wetland buffer 40.'
Vicinity: The property is located approximately a block west of Interurban Avenue and SR 599.
It marks the boundary between Commercial/Light Industrial (C /LI) zoning and uses, and Low
Density Residential (LDR) zoning and single family homes. A cluster of commercial and light
industrial uses, including Ace Construction, Far West Paint, Marshall Tool and Supply, Alaska
Air Forwarding, Bay Valve Service and Normed are located in the surrounding C /LI zone to the
north, south and east.
Topography separates the subject property from single family homes that are immediately west
of the property, and across Macadam Road/43 Avenue South. Riverton Park is west across
Macadam Road, and the Church of Neziah is in the next block. Medium Density and High
Density zones are found west across 40 Avenue South.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA
Planning Commission review is required for Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code
amendments. The Planning Commission may recommend approval, recommend approval with
conditions or recommend denial of the amendment based on a clear compliance with the criteria
that follow. The Planning Commission's recommendation will be forwarded to the City
Council, which will make the final decision. (TMC 18.80 and 18.84)
1) Describe how the issue is addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. If the issue is not
adequately addressed, is there a need for it?
The proposed Comprehensive Plan change from C /LI to MDR is not specifically addressed in the
Comprehensive Plan, although the need for a variety of housing stock and healthy neighborhoods
is. The rezone would allow new multi family housing to be built.
Four broad reaching objectives are the basis for the elements, goals and policies for Tukwila's
Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan's primary objective is preserving and enhancing
Tukwila's neighborhoods. The Comprehensive Plan states the following:
Comprehensive Plan Objective #1: "To improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality
and livability."
Under Medium Density Residential (MDR) designation, multi family homes, including owner
occupied townhomes, provide opportunities for individuals and families to live in and contribute
to the community. Neighborhood residential quality and livability can be enhanced with the
proposed MDR zoning by allowing multi family housing, including townhomes to be built.
Future development in the MDR zone could add additional housing choices to the community.
W: \Word Processing \Ordinances \Comp Plan Amend Macadam 1.doc
RF:mrh 08/13/2010
Page 2 of 6
108
Housing Goal 3.1: Continue to provide the City's fair share of regional housing.
MDR zoning would allow multi family housing to be built on the site.
Housing Policy 3.1.1. Provide sufficient zoned housing potential to accommodate future single
and multi family households.
This policy speaks to the need to provide adequate amounts of residentially -zoned land, and to
provide housing choice for future residents. Multi family or single family housing could be built
with the MDR designation, consistent with this Comprehensive Plan policy.
Residential Neighborhoods Policy 7.3.1 Maintain a comprehensive land use map that supports
the preservation and enhancement of single-family and stable multi family neighborhoods;
eliminates incompatible uses; and clearly establishes applicable development requirements
through recognizable boundaries.
This policy demonstrates the community's commitment to residential neighborhoods, including
multi family. Much of the site contains environmentally sensitive streams and wetlands that
limit its development potential. It is not likely that a commercial /light industrial use could be
located at the site. The requested Medium Density Residential could provide an effective
transition between the Commercial /Light Industrial on the east, and the Low Density Residential
on the west.
Goal 7.2 Noise Abatement—Residential neighborhoods protected from undue noise impacts, in
order to ensure for all residents the continued use, enjoyment and value of their homes, public
facilities and recreation, and the outdoors.
The proposed MDR zoning provides the opportunity for new residential development to transition
away from the neighboring Commercial/Light Industrial zoning and uses.
2) Impacts
MDR would allow housing on the now vacant site. MDR zoning permits a maximum of 14.5
units per acre. With a stream, a wetland and their associated buffers on the property, the number
of potential housing units that could be built would be much lower than the maximum allowed.
The applicant's schematic drawing shows four units on the 1.75 acre site. Any future
development would be carefully sited. If desired, a Planned Residential Development (PRD)
could be built to make best use of the site's natural environment, and to encourage efficiency in
the layout of housing and public improvements. This would increase the overall housing stock in
Tukwila.
The request is considered a downzone, and the potential impact of allowing housing units in the
proposed MDR zoning is generally less than the impacts of the existing commercial and light
industrial uses in the immediate vicinity. Any future multi family development on the site would
add some traffic and noise. The location of the environmentally sensitive areas dictate that new
housing will be built on the western portion of the site, farthest from commercial and industrial
activity in the Commercial/Light Industrial Zone.
The proposed medium density residential designation will provide a better transition to the
adjacent low density residential, than the existing commercial /light industrial designation, would
W: \Word Processing\ Ordinances\ Comp Plan Amend Macadam 1.doc
RF:mrh 08/13/2010
Page 3 of 6
109
bring new residents to the neighborhood and has potentially fewer impacts on the adjacent
single family homes.
3) Is the proposed change the best means for meeting the identified public need? What
other options are there for meeting the identified public need?
The public need and the State of Washington Growth Management Act requirement for
additional housing opportunities and choices could be accommodated by designating the
property as MDR. With careful site design, perhaps through a Planned Residential Development
(PRD) and/or in combination with the adjacent property, several homes could be constructed on
the western portion of the property while leaving the stream and wetland intact.
The community's need for housing could also be met by designating the property Low Density
Residential (LDR), like the western portion of the block.
Alternately, the public need for businesses that produce employment and revenue might be met
by retaining the existing C /LI designation and developing the site for commercial purposes. The
environmentally sensitive areas that cover most of the site have limited commercial
development, and will likely continue to do so.
4) Will the proposed change result in a net benefit to the community? If not, what result
can be expected and why?
The proposed change will benefit the community by allowing housing to be built. The current
C /LI designation immediately adjacent to LDR is an abrupt transition. MDR could provide a
more gradual and appropriate transition from commercial and light industrial uses to housing.
This could benefit the residential community.
A Planned Residential Development, permitted under the Medium Density Residential zoning
could be built to make best use of the site's natural environment, and to encourage efficiency in
the layout of housing and public improvements.
Changing the existing C/LI designation removes the option of future job producing business on
the site.
CONCLUSIONS
In reviewing Comprehensive Plan criteria, staff concludes that:
1) Is the issue addressed in the Comprehensive Plan? Is it needed?
Comprehensive Plan objectives, goals and policies acknowledge the need for Tukwila to
retain residential neighborhoods, to provide needed regional housing, to retain adequate
land zoned "residential and to provide housing in a stable neighborhood.
The proposed Comprehensive Plan change/Rezone from CLI to MDR is not currently
addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, although the need for a variety of housing stock and
healthy neighborhoods is. The MDR zoning could provide a transition between single
family zoning to the west, and light industrial zoning to the east.
W: \Word Processing \Ordinances \Comp Plan Amend Macadam 1.doc
RF:mrh 08/13/2010
Page 4 of 6
110
Impacts?
New housing units would increase traffic and noise, but this is likely to be less than the
impact of future commercial/light industrial activity on the site.
Specific redevelopment plans will undergo environmental, design review and building
permit review to address potential impacts.
2) Meeting identified public need? Other options?
Designating new Medium Density Residential provides the option of additional housing
for the area.
Housing could be provided by designating the property as Low Density Residential
(LDR)
Retaining the Commercial/Light Industrial zoning retains the somewhat distant option of
eventual employment and revenue- producing development.
3) Benefit to the community?
The proposed change will create the opportunity for an increased supply of new housing and
housing options which benefits the community.
New development that enhances the site's environmental characteristics benefits the
community.
The change to housing use, will remove the opportunity for a commercial/light industrial
use.

Commercial/Light Industrial (C /LI) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) at 4300 S. 133
Street, Tukwila, WA (Parcel 261320 0131).
The applicant is seeking the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone in order to develop the
property for residential use. He believes that a residential use would be more appropriate to the
site, and provide a better buffer for adjacent single- family uses than the commercial and light
industrial uses allowed under the current Comprehensive Plan and zoning. (Attachments A and
B)
The property is the site of an ongoing code violation that includes removing vegetation, placing
illegal fill, and parking construction vehicles in the stream buffer, and wetland buffer. In order to
remedy these issues, the applicant applied for and has received a 50% buffer reduction that
allows him to perform work to mitigate impacts to the wetland and buffer, and to enhance the
buffer. These actions will correct the code violation and increase developable space on the site.
The applicant is required to make significant progress in mitigating the impacts of the code
violation and enhancing the buffer as a condition of the buffer reduction, and to proceed with
consideration of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone. After delays caused by wet
spring weather, the applicant is making good progress in correcting the required code violations.
The mitigation and improvements shall be completed by the end of the planting season.
A contract rezone and Comprehensive Plan amendment can be used to stipulate that all code
related work be complete by a date certain a condition of the change from Commercial/Light
Industrial to Medium Density Residential. This will ensure that all needed work is
accomplished, and will provide the applicant with further incentive for completing all the work
in a timely manner, while protecting the City's interests. In the event that wetland and
watercourse mitigation and improvement are not completed as required, the Comprehensive Plan
designation and rezone will revert to the prior designation.
The Community Affairs and Parks Committee was briefed on June 14, 2010 and the issue was
forwarded to the City Council. After taking comments at a public meeting on June 28, 2010, the
City Council deliberated on July 6, 2010, and forwarded the issue to the Planning Commission
for review. (Attachment C)
Site: The property is located on the corner of 44 Avenue South and S. 133 Street (4300 S.
133 Street). The property is bounded on three sides by S. 132 Street to the north, 44 Avenue
South to the east, and S. 133 Street to the south. Macadam Road, to the west of the property,

crosses over S. 133 via a bridge. The 1.72 -acre site is vacant except for a wooden garage that is
associated with the single family house located on the adjacent lot, also owned by the applicant,
immediately to the west. The subject C /LI property and the adjacent LDR lot are essentially an
"island" surrounded by roadway on all sides, and separated from both nearby commercial /light
industrial and residential uses.
The majority of the subject property contains environmentally sensitive areas, including
Southgate Creek, a Type 2 salmon bearing stream, a Type 2 wetland associated with the stream,
and their associated buffer areas. The buffer for a Type 2 stream is 100 feet, and the buffer for a
Type 2 wetland is 80 feet. The site also includes a steep slope with moderate potential for
geologic instability. The applicant has applied for and received a 50% buffer reduction, which
makes the stream buffer 50', and the wetland buffer 40.'
Vicinity: The property is located approximately a block west of Interurban Avenue and SR 599.
It marks the boundary between Commercial/Light Industrial (C /LI) zoning and uses, and Low
Density Residential (LDR) zoning and single family homes. A cluster of commercial and light
industrial uses, including Ace Construction, Far West Paint, Marshall Tool and Supply, Alaska
Air Forwarding, Bay Valve Service and Normed are located in the surrounding C/LI zone to the
north, south and east.
Topography separates the subject property from single family homes that are immediately west
of the property, and across Macadam Road/43 Avenue South. Riverton Park is west across
Macadam Road, and the Church of Neziah is in the next block. Medium Density and High
Density zones are found west across 40 Avenue South.
REZONE CRITERIA:
1. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent with the goals, objectives,
and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
Per the discussion of Comprehensive Plan Criteria (above), both the existing MDR zoning and
the proposed HDR zoning are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, as follows:
Plan Objective #1 —To improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality and
livability; and
Goal 3.1 Continue to provide the City's fair share of regional housing; and
Policy 3.1.1 Provide sufficient zoned housing potential to accommodate future
single- and multi family households.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of this title and the description and purpose of the zone classification
applied for.
Per TMC 18.12.010 Purpose, the requested Medium Density Residential (MDR) district is
"intended to provide areas for family and group residential uses, and serves as an alternative
to lower density family residential housing and more intensively developed group housing and
related uses...
W: \Word Processing \Ordinances \Comp Plan Amend Macadam 2.doc
RF:mrh 08/13/2010
Page 2 of 5
118
Multi family duplex, triplex, four -plex units, townhouses up to four attached units, or detached
zero lot -line units are permitted with heights up to 30 feet. One detached single family dwelling
unit is permitted per lot. This type of development is consistent with the Medium Density
Residential (MDR) zoning that is requested.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to warrant
the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map.
The current commercial/light industrial zoning has not produced new development.
The development of the nearby Riverton Park provides an amenity that supports additional
residential development. The applicant is providing mitigation and improvements to the
wetland, watercourse, and buffers that are required in order to correct code violations. Once
these mitigation and improvement actions are complete, the site will be especially well suited to
a carefully sited multi family residential development, or Planned Residential Development
(PRD).
4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest of furtherance
of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare, and will not
adversely affect the surrounding neighborhoods, nor be injurious to other
properties in the vicinity in which the subject property is located.
In a broad sense, allowing additional, denser multi family housing to be built could benefit the
region and the community by providing additional housing choices and tax income. Well
designed multi family residential development would benefit the community more, than the
existing vacant property. Measures to facilitate redevelopment of the vacant property as part of a
coordinated townhouse or other housing project promote public health, safety, and comfort
through good design. Site specific development will be planned carefully to accommodate both
site specific and neighborhood conditions.
Future site development applications for SEPA and Design Review will address specific impacts
such as traffic, parking, and other impacts on abutting property. Environmental review, design
review with a Board of Architectural Review hearing and public involvement will provide
Tukwila a clear mechanism to evaluate any future proposed development, and to mitigate
potential negative impacts to the adjacent properties and the community.
ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
The proposed MDR zoning is consistent with existing Comprehensive Plan policies
that support stable neighborhoods, more housing, and offer a range of housing types.
2) Consistencv with Zone:
The desired multi family residential zoning permits a range of housing to be built,
including duplex, tri-plex, four -plex, and townhouses.

3) Changed conditions:
Additional emphasis is placed on providing additional choices in housing type and
ownership for current and future Tukwila residents.
4) Community interest:
New housing development is in the community interest.
Residential development that is sensitive to the site's environmental characteristics
benefits the community.

Background:
FINDINGS
Background and Proiect Descrintion
The annexation of the Tukwila South Project Area in 2009 inadvertently created an
inconsistency between the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map and the zoning map. Staff
requests that this "housekeeping" matter be corrected through a zoning map change.
No Comprehensive Plan amendment is required.
This inconsistency and the need to correct it surfaced after the deadline for submitting
Comprehensive Plan amendment/Rezone applications had passed. TMC 18.80.020.2
allows an emergency amendment to be filed after the standard application deadline to
"Support the social, economic or environmental well -being of the City." In this case,
correcting the establishing zoning will permit the City's zoning and Comprehensive Plan
to be consistent as required.
In 2009, the Tukwila City Council adopted several ordinances that pertain to the Tukwila
South Project. These included: 1) a development agreement with La Pianta setting forth
conditions for development in the Tukwila South area (Ordinance #2233); 2) an
ordinance that adopted the Tukwila South Master Plan (Ordinance #2234) and 3) an
ordinance that established the Tukwila South Overlay district, with development and
design standards for the area (Ordinance #2235). Ordinance #2241 annexed the Tukwila
South Project Property to Tukwila and established its zoning.
These ordinances state that the Tukwila South property shall be subject to the
Comprehensive Plan, Tukwila South Master Plan, and Tukwila South Overlay District
zoning regulations as set forth in the Tukwila South Project Development Agreement,
adopted in Ordinance #2233. Ordinance #2233 also states that the ordinances pertaining
to the Development Agreement shall expire if the Development Agreement terminates
prior to the expiration of its term.
Reauirement for consistency between Comprehensive Plan land use man and zoning;
map: Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan land use map and its zoning map are supposed to be
identical. For example, if the Comprehensive Plan land use map specifies "Low Density
Residential" (LDR) for a site, then the zoning map also will specify "Low Density
Residential" (LDR). In certain cases where an area has specific development goals, an
overlay zoning district with specialized development requirements may apply, usually
subject to specific conditions. The basic "underlying zoning and Comprehensive Plan
designations are in place, but a supplemental zoning overlay will apply if certain
conditions are met.

Issue:
The City Attorney has indicated that the Annexation Ordinance 2241) established the
Tukwila South overlay zone as the applicable zoning for the annexed area. An overlay is
used to establish zoning under certain circumstances, but it does not replace the
underlying zoning. When the property was annexed, the designated underlying zoning
was not established.
The Tukwila South Overlay Zone applies to the entire Tukwila South Master Plan Area.
Some of that area was already within Tukwila's city limits and had an underlying zone,
but the annexed area had no underlying zoning. This creates an inconsistency between the
Comprehensive Plan map and the zoning map. The underlying zoning should match the
Comprehensive Plan map. In addition, the area could be left without zoning in the event
that the Tukwila South Development Agreement is terminated before its term, as
described in Ordinance #2233,
The Community Affairs and Parks Committee was briefed on June 14, 2010 and the issue
was forwarded to the City Council. After taking comments at a public meeting on June
28, 2010, the City Council deliberated on July 6, 2010, and forwarded the issue to the
Planning Commission for review. (Attachment C)

FILE #L09 -002 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT/REZONE
REZONE CRITERIA:
1. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent with the goals,
objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan
The Washington State Growth Management Act (1990) requires that the
City of Tukwila adopt development regulations including zoning that are
consistent with and implement the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed
rezone adopts zoning in the Tukwila South Annexation Area This action
makes zoning in the Tukwila South Annexation Area consistent with
established Comprehensive Plan, as required by Ordinance #1758.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of this title and the description and purpose of the zone classification
applied for.
The proposed amendment to the zoning map establishes zoning in an area
that was annexed without underlying zoning, and makes the new zoning
consistent with established Comprehensive Plan designations. The current
Comprehensive Plan designation and the proposed underlying zoning in the

Tukwila South Annexation Area are: Low Density Residential (LDR),
Mixed Use Office (MUO) and Tukwila Valley South (TVS).
Supplemental zoning and development regulations for the area are addressed
via the Tukwila South Overlay district zone (TMC 18.41).
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to
warrant the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map
Conditions have changed because the subject area was recently annexed into the
City of Tukwila, and through oversight, did not receive zoning that is consistent
with the pre- existing Comprehensive Plan designation.
Comprehensive Plan designations were established when the area was in
Tukwila's Potential Annexation Area (PAA) and was still under King County's
jurisdiction. Inadvertently, zoning that is consistent with these Comprehensive
Plan designations was not adopted at the time of its annexation to Tukwila.
Instead, a supplemental zoning overlay "Tukwila South Overlay District was
established as the zoning for the entire Tukwila South project area, including the
newly annexed area. The proposed rezone corrects this error.
4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest and
furtherance of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general
welfare, and will not adversely affect the surrounding neighborhoods, nor be
injurious to other properties in the vicinity in which the subject property is
located
The Zoning map and Comprehensive Land Use Plan map categories must be
the same. This map change makes underlying zoning for recently annexed
land consistent with its Comprehensive Plan designations in the Tukwila
South project area, as is required.
ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
Comprehensive Plan and zoning classifications must be consistent.
Adopting Low Density Residential (LDR), Mixed Used Office (MUO) and
Tukwila Valley South (TVS) zoning in the Tukwila South annexation area will
make zoning consistent with the existing Comprehensive Plan designations as
required.
2) Consistency with Zone:
The proposed zoning is the same as the existing Comprehensive Plan designation.
There is no change.
3) Changed conditions:
The Tukwila South Annexation Area recently became part of the City of Tukwila
without establishing underlying zoning being established that is in line with the
existing Comprehensive Plan designations.

Although supplemental zoning and development regulations were established
"Tukwila South Overlay District underlying zoning is still required.
4) Community interest:
Zoning that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan is a requirement of the
Washington Growth Management Act, and Tukwila Ordinance #1750 that adopts
the Zoning Code.
ZONING RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the following to correct the inconsistency:
Establish "underlying" zoning that is the same as the Comprehensive Plan designations
within the Tukwila South Master Plan area that was annexed to the City of Tukwila per
Ordinance #2241.

Establish zoning in Tukwila South Annexation Area
EXHIBIT 1
Background and Protect Description
The annexation of the Tukwila South Project Area in 2009 inadvertently created an
inconsistency between the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map and the zoning map. Staff
requests that this "housekeeping" matter be corrected through a zoning map change.
No Comprehensive Plan amendment is required.
This inconsistency and the need to correct it surfaced after the deadline for submitting
Comprehensive Plan amendment/Rezone applications had passed. TMC 18.80.020.2 allows an
emergency amendment to be filed after the standard application deadline to "Support the social,
economic or environmental well -being of the City." In this case, correcting the establishing
zoning will permit the City's zoning and Comprehensive Plan to be consistent as required.
Background:
In 2009, the Tukwila City Council adopted several ordinances that pertain to the Tukwila South
Project. These included: 1) a development agreement with La Pianta, Inc. setting forth
conditions for development in the Tukwila South area (Ordinance #2233); 2) an ordinance that
adopted the Tukwila South Master Plan (Ordinance #2234) and 3) an ordinance that
established the Tukwila South Overlay district, with development and design standards for the
area (Ordinance #2235). Ordinance #2241 annexed the Tukwila South Project Property to
Tukwila and established its zoning.
These ordinances state that the Tukwila South property shall be subject to the Comprehensive
Plan, Tukwila South Master Plan, and Tukwila South Overlay District zoning regulations as set
forth in the Tukwila South Project Development Agreement, adopted in Ordinance #2233.
Ordinance #2233 also states that the ordinances pertaining to the Development Agreement shall
expire if the Development Agreement terminates prior to the expiration of its term.
Requirement for consistency between Comprehensive Plan land use map and zoning map:
Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan land use map and its zoning map are supposed to be identical.
For example, if the Comprehensive Plan land use map specifies "Low Density Residential"
(LDR) for a site, then the zoning map also will specify "Low Density Residential" (LDR). In
certain cases where an area has specific development goals, an overlay zoning district with
specialized development requirements may apply, usually subject to specific conditions. The
basic "underlying zoning and Comprehensive Plan designations are in place, but a
supplemental zoning overlay will apply if certain conditions are met.
Issue:
The City Attorney has indicated that the Annexation Ordinance 2241) established the Tukwila
South overlay zone as the applicable zoning for the annexed area. An overlay is used to establish
zoning under certain circumstances, but it does not replace the underlying zoning. When the
property was annexed, the designated underlying zoning was not established.

The Tukwila South Overlay Zone applies to the entire Tukwila South Master Plan Area. Some
of that area was already within Tukwila's city limits and had an underlying zone, but the
annexed area had no underlying zoning. This creates an inconsistency between the
Comprehensive Plan map and the zoning map. The underlying zoning should match the
Comprehensive Plan map. In addition, the area could be left without zoning in the event that the
Tukwila South Development Agreement is terminated before its term, as described in Ordinance
#2233,

map change makes underlying zoning for recently annexed land consistent with its
Comprehensive Plan designations in the Tukwila South project area, as is required.
ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistency with Comprehensive Plan:
Comprehensive Plan and zoning classifications must be consistent.
Adopting Low Density Residential (LDR), Mixed Used Office (MUO) and Tukwila
Valley South (TVS) zoning in the Tukwila South annexation area will make zoning
consistent with the existing Comprehensive Plan designations as required.
2) Consistency with Zone:
The proposed zoning is the same as the existing Comprehensive Plan designation. There
is no change.
3) Changed conditions:
The Tukwila South Annexation Area recently became part of the City of Tukwila without
establishing underlying zoning being established that is in line with the existing
Comprehensive Plan designations.
Although supplemental zoning and development regulations were established "Tukwila
South Overlay District underlying zoning is still required.
Community interest:
Zoning that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan is a requirement of the
Washington Growth Management Act, and Tukwila Ordinance #1750 that adopts the
Zoning Code.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
Mayor Haggerton
COMMUNITY AFFAIRS AND PARKS COMMITTEE
FROM: Steve Lancaster, City Administrator
DATE: August 17, 2010
SUBJECT: Proposed Tukwila Center for Heritage Culture at 14475 59 Ave. S.
ISSUE
This proposal relates to the preservation, protection, and use of the former Tukwila Grade
School /Tukwila City Hall building by converting the facility into a center to display historical
collections to safeguard Tukwila's heritage and strengthen City tourism.
BACKGROUND
DISCUSSION
RECOMMENDATION
The Committee is being asked to forward the attached resolution to the September 13, 2010
Committee of the Whole meeting for consideration and the subsequent September 20, 2010
Regular Meeting for adoption.
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
A presentation for the proposed use of the former Tukwila Grade School/Tukwila City Hall to
display community history was brought before the City Council on April 19, 2010 by the Tukwila
Historical Society. The building served as a library until March 1, 2010. Council discussions
regarding potential surplus properties on April 26, 2010 resulted in this property being removed
from consideration for future sale. At the Finance and Safety Committee meeting on August 17,
2010, the Committee agreed with staff's assessment that the building should be made available
for community use.
The former Tukwila City Hall is a registered national historic structure. The Tukwila Historical
Society is asking the City to consider use of this facility as a center for heritage and culture in
South King County at no cost to the City, other than utilities and general maintenance including
custodial service and small repairs
The mission of the Tukwila Historical Society is to enhance the historic place our community
holds in the Pacific Northwest by collecting, preserving and sharing the historical, archaeological
and ethnological records that pertain to Tukwila, the Duwamish River Valley, and the Puget
Sound Region. The Tukwila Historical Society, a 501(c)(3) non profit organization, has the
capability to apply for grants ensuring needed improvements can be done at no cost to the City.
A building inspection and conditional assessment report was completed (see attached). The
Society requests the opportunity to assess the feasibility to display collections of historical
significance but time is of the essence. A grant submittal to 4- Culture is due by October 13 2010
but requires an authorized lease from the City. The attached draft Resolution would authorize
the Mayor to enter into a no -cost lease of the building to the Tukwila Historical Society for a
period of three years, with the intent to renew and extend the lease upon successful
establishment of the proposed heritage and cultural center.

library between 1982 and 2010; and
WHEREAS, the former Tukwila Grade School /Tukwila City Hall building was entered into
the National Register of Historic Places in December 1979; and
WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila seeks to perpetuate its local history, as outlined in the
award winning history book, "Tukwila Community at the Crossroads," which contains many
references to this historic building; and
WHEREAS, the Tukwila Historical Society, a local 501(c)(3) organization, proposes to utilize
the former Tukwila Grade School /Tukwila City Hall building to enhance the historical place our
community holds in the Pacific Northwest by collecting, preserving and displaying collections,
artifacts and digital information pertaining to Tukwila's past, and to be an educational resource
for future generations; and
WHEREAS, the proposal outlines a funding mechanism and strategic plan to rename this
historic building the "Tukwila Heritage and Cultural Center," serving the community with
educational displays, events and exhibits relating to heritage, culture and the arts;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

lighting, security, sanitary and other interior upgrades appropriate for community use. The City
will continue to provide utilities and general maintenance including custodial service and small
repairs. Capital improvements must follow the guidelines of both state and national covenants
related to historic landmarks.
SECTION 2. The Mayor is hereby authorized to enter into a no -cost lease with the Tukwila
Historical Society for the building located at 14475 59th Avenue South, Tukwila, Washington, for
the purposes and subject to the terms described by Section 1, above, and in consideration of the
benefits to the City and community as expressed by this resolution. The initial term of the lease
shall be for three (3) years. It is the intent of the City Council that the lease will be extended for
an additional period or periods of time upon successful completion of necessary improvements
and establishment of the proposed heritage and cultural center.

\on-structura Summary of
Former City Ha
The following is an overall assessment of the buildings conditions.
Generally the condition of the building is a sound structure.
The interior is in good condition and may only need some basic cleanup and
paint with removal of previous alterations to restore as close as possible to its
original historical condition.
A seismic upgrade to provide a positive attachment to the foundation will be
required with engineering.
The basement will need some special attention to cleanup including removal
of old debris and closets to provide for better space for storage. Also the
basement ceiling has a number of holes that need to be repaired. The ducts
will need to be re- insulated to meet energy codes. The floor drain will need to
be upgraded with a sump pump system to prevent flooding of the basement
and stair well landing. Access to the basement will need to be retrofitted to
provide a safer access especially during icy conditions.
Exterior appears to be in good condition. Some painting with minor fixes as
needed. Roof appears to be in good condition.
