BACKGROUND The City of Tukwila received three applications for annual Comprehensive Plan amendments for consideration in 2008. One file was closed due to incompleteness, and the second was withdrawn. One application will be considered for review in 2008. REVIEW PROCESS The Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone process has several steps. Applications that are received by the December 31 deadline are considered in the following year. The first step in Council's consideration is to evaluate the proposed amendment at a public meeting according to the following review criteria: Is the issue already adequately addressed in the Comprehensive Plan? If the issue is not addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, is there a public need for the proposed change? Is the proposed change the best means for meeting the identified public need? Will the proposed change result in a new benefit to the community? The Council will then make a "threshold decision" as follows: Refer the proposal as is to the Planning Commission for further review; Modify the proposal and refer the Planning Commission for further review; Defer consideration until a later time; Reject the proposal. The Planning Commission holds a public hearing on applications that are forwarded, and makes a recommendation back to the City Council. Finally, the City Council holds a hearing and makes a decision. At that point, the Council may: Jim Haggerton, Mayor 06/04/2008 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 Tukwila, Washington 98188 Phone: 206 431 -3670 Fax: 206 431 -3665 . Adopt a proposed amendment; · Adopt a modified version of a proposed amendment; or . Reject the amendment. DISCUSSION/ANAL YSIS/ AL TERNA TIVES The application is as follows: · Redesignate property from Low Density Residential (LDR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) at 152xx 65th Avenue South-Applicant: Raymond Carlstedt (File #L07-096 and L07-097) The applicant seeks to redesignate approximately 1.41 acres acres ofa 5.8 acre site from single-family residential (LDR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) for the eastern portion of the property. The entire site is wooded and contains two separate wetlands and their associated buffers. MDR is proposed only for the eastern part of the property nearest to 65th Avenue South. The rest of the site would remain as LDR, leaving the wetlands and their buffers unaffected by the rezone. The applicant proposes to donate that portion of the property that is not part of the proposal (approximately 4.4 acres) to the City of Tukwila. Any future development would occur on the eastern edge of the property. A mix of single-family and multi-family dwelling units are in the vicinity. 14 single- family homes are directly north in the Maple Tree subdivision, while approximately 260 units of apartment and condominium units east across 65th Avenue South on land that is zoned Medium Density Residential (MDR). There are several single family homes to the south, as well as the 60+ unit San Juan South apartments. Single-family homes are to the west of the site. Tukwila Park is approximately one block from the site along 65th Avenue South. Medium Density Residential (MDR) allows 14.5 units/acre as duplex, triplex or fourplex buildings. The site is constrained by slopes, wetland and wetland buffer, and would lend itselfto a Planned Residential Development in order to allow greater flexibility in zoning requirements to create additional open space, and retain vegetation. The property has been the object of several development proposals in the past. In the late 1980s, the entire site, including both wetlands, was considered for a subdivision proposal that was eventually dropped. The current rezone proposal is different from the earlier project since it affects only to the eastern area along 65th A venue South. All wetlands and associated buffer areas are excluded from the rezone, and \vould be retained. ~ 2 Q:\Comp Plan 2007-2008\Woodland View L07-096 & L07-097\CAPinfomemo6.9.08 #3.doc 06/0412008 ACTION Staff requests that the CAP forward this issue to the COW for a briefing at its meeting on June 23, and to the Regular Meeting on July 7, 2008 for a public meeting. After receiving comments in the public meeting on July 7, the City Council will decide whether or not to forward the proposed amendment to the Planning Commission for further consideration. Ene. A.

Seattle, W A 98146 RE: Estate of AI White Property 65th Street, City of Tukwila Dear Ray: The above referenced site was evaluated for wetlands. The site contains what appears to be two wetlands. A western Category 2 wetland that will be far from any development and the eastern Category 3 wetland. The eastern wetland determines the extent of development. The eastern edge of the east wetlands was flagged and surveyed. The wetland has been previously determined to be a Category 3 wetland with a standard 50 foot buffer. This letter serves as a preliminary report to assist the estate in marketing the property. A final report with all the necessary information will be provided when needed. The east edge of the eastern Category 3 wetland will have a 50 foot buffer, The larid between the edge of the buffer and the street is developable with regards to wetlands. Buffer averaging my be used for a final lot layout. If you have any questions please feel free to call me. AJ Bredberg PWS, CPSS, CP8C 4369L2 3303 43rd St. NW. Gig Harbor, WA 98335.

The comprehensive plan designates properties to the North East and South East on 65th Avenue South as higher density. #2 The property is encumbered with wetlands over 50%. A higher density would fit with the zoning to the North east and south east. #3 The wetlands provide a division between zones. #4 The wetlands and there buffer will be donated to the people of the City of Tukwila and King County.
