Based on the level of service analysis and Entranco's PM peak
hour traffic flow observations at the Todd Boulevard /West
Valley Highway intersection, we suggest the following recom-
mendations to enhance the safety and operational efficiency
of the intersection:
o Paint the West crosswalk on Todd Boulevard
o Install pedestrian signals for the West crosswalk
o Stripe the eastbound approach of Todd Boulevard
o Install "left only" and "right only" arrow pavement
markings on the eastbound approach
o Install shoulder mounted "left only" and "right only"
signs for Todd Boulevard
o Install identifying signal signs under the signals for
the eastbound right turn, eastbound left turn, and
northbound left turn movements. These would be small
12" x 18" signs.
o Repaint the South crosswalk
The long term improvement to the intersection would be to
construct a double left -turn lane on the eastbound approach
by partially removing the median on Todd Boulevard. Since
the intersection currently operates and will operate at LOS C
with the project generated traffic, then the intersection
should be monitored with future development to determine the
implementation of the improvement. -
We trust that this traffic analysis for the Thompson Tile
Office /Warehouse Development will assist you and Corporate
Property Investors in gaining approval for their proposed
project. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the
information in this document, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
ENTRANCO ENG

VICINITY /SITE INFORMATION
BACKGROUND
FINDINGS
A. Project Description: The project involves:
1. a 32 -foot high addition (a total of 21,300 square
feet of space - 17,340 on the main floor, 3,960 of
mezzanine),
2. the alteration of approximately 8,000 square feet
of existing interior space for office /sales,
3. an expansion of the parking area to included an
additional 15 spaces, and
4. additional landscaping.
B. Existing Land Use: Approximately the northern three -
fourths of the site is developed with a warehouse /office
use containing 38,952 square feet (34,992 in warehouse
and 3,960 in office). The existing facility is a tilt -
up concrete structure approximately 26 feet high.
C. Surrounding Land Use: The site is located in the
Southcenter South Industrial Park. The industrial park
fronts on the West Valley Highway at the intersection
with Todd Boulevard. The subject property is surrounded
by similar industrial /office /retail development. To the
north (across Todd Boulevard) is the Seawest facility;
to the east is the railroad spur and Unistrut Northwest
facility; to the south is the Marketing Group facility;
and to the west is the Sound Floor Coverings facility.
D. Terrain: The site is flat.
E. Access: Access to the site is from the West Valley
Highway via Todd Boulevard.
Existing use is a distributor of industrial supplies for
the building industry and is permitted in the C -M zoning
district.
Existing site landscaping does not comply with current
dimensional requirements and therefore legally non-
conforming. Much of existing frontage landscaping is
located on City right -of -way.
STAFF REPORT to the 90 -2 -DR: W.W. Grainger
B.A.R. Page 3
Dimension between the building and the north property
line includes 4 foot bed of landscaping and just meets
the minimum dimensional requirements for the parking
layout. Therefore there is insufficient space to
install the required 15 feet of front yard landscaping.
The site and landscape plans (received 4 -9 -90) were
modified after the initial submittal (received 2- 22 -90)
based upon discussions with City Staff.
Section 18.70.090 of the Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC)
gives the board the authority to modify the landscaping
standards when in their judgement the existing and
proposed landscaping meet the functional intent of the
landscaping requirements.
DECISION CRITERIA
The applicable Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) criteria are
listed below in bold, followed by pertinent findings of fact.
18.60.050 GENERAL REVIEW CRITERIA
(1) Relationship of Structure to Site.
a. The site should be planned to accomplish a
desireable transition with streetscape and to
provide for adequate landscaping and pedestrian
movement.
b. Parking and service areas should be located,
designed and screened to moderate the visual impact
of large paved areas.
c. The height and scale of each building should be
considered in relation to the site.
The addition will not alter the fundamental relationship
of the structure to the site. The addition will be
extended south approximately 100 feet. The front and
side yard setbacks will remain the same.
The number of loading bays will increase from four to
seven, but remain in the same location (on the west
side, adjacent to Olympic Ave South) away from the major
pedestrian entry.
STAFF REPORT to the 90 -2 -DR: W.W. Grainger
B.A.R. Page 4
The addition will be 32 feet in height, approximately 6
feet above the existing structure, however, the proposed
height is consistent with other nearby structures.
The Fire Department indicates that with the addition the
existing fire access is inadequate. Fire access must be
provided to the rear of the property.
(2) Relationship of Structure and Site to Adjoining Area.
a. Harmony on texture, lines and masses is encouraged.
b. Appropriate landscape transition to adjoining
properties should be provided.
c. Public buildings and structures should be
consistent with established neighborhood character.
d. Compatibility of vehicular pedestrian circulation
patterns and loading facilities in terms of safety,
efficiency and convience should be encouraged.
e. Compatibility of on -site vehicular circulation with
should be encouraged.
The exterior character of the addition will match the
existing structure and is compatible with other
structures in the area.
An additional driveway will be added along Olympic Ave
South to the south. This driveway will service the new
parking area addition south of the existing truck load
bays. A proposed parking stall adjoining the west
property line has been eliminated and replaced with
landscaping so that traffic along Olympic Ave South
would not be impacted.
Section 11.64.020 of the TMC requires the addition of
six -feet wide sidewalks along Todd Boulevard and Olympic
Ave South.
(3) Landscaping and Site Treatment.
a. Where existing topographic patterns contribute to
beauty and utility of a development, they should be
recognized, preserved and enhanced.
b. Grades of walks, parking spaces, terraces and other
paved areas should promote safety and provide an
inviting and stable appearance.
c. Landscape treatment should enhance architectural
features, strengthen vistas and important axis, and
provide shade.
d. In locations where plants will be susceptible to
injury by pedestrian or motor traffic, mitigating
steps should be taken.
STAFF REPORT to the 90 -2 -DR: W.W. Grainger
B.A.R. Page 5
e. Where building sites limit planting, the placement
of trees or shrubs in paved areas is encouraged.
f. Screening of service yards, and other places which
tend to be unsightly, should be accomplished by use
of walls, fencing, planting or combination.
g. In areas where general planting will not prosper,
other materials,such as fences, walls and pavings
of wood, brick, stone or gravel may be used.
h. Exterior lighting, when used, should enhance
building design and the adjoining landscape.
Lighting standards and fixtures should be of
a design and size compatible with the building and
adjacent area. Lighting should be shielded, and
restrained in design. Excessive brightness and
brilliant colors should be avoided.
The existing landscaping is legally non - conforming. No
perimeter landscaping exists along the east property line.
In addition, much of the existing perimeter
landscaping is located on public right -of -way. The required
installation of sidewalks will eliminate a portion of the
perimeter landscaping as follows:
a. The width of the landscaping along Todd Boulevard
will be reduced from 15 feet to approximately 4
feet. The required width is 15 feet. Since the
dimensions for the parking stalls and aisle width
are currently at the minimum, there is no
opportunity move the landscaping to the south.
b. The width of the landscaping along Olympic Ave
South will be reduced from 10 feet to approximately
3 feet. The required width is 5 feet. The
dimensions for the parking stalls and traffic aisle
would allow the existing landscape area to be
widened an additional foot.
The lineal distance from the beginning of the addition
to the rear property line is approximately 150 feet.
Using the standard of one tree approximately every
thirty feet on center would require six trees to be
planted along the east property line. Requiring strict
compliance with landscaping requirements along the east
property line in the vicinity of the proposed addition
given the existing rail spur and the required fire
access would seem impractical.
STAFF REPORT to the 90 -2 -DR: W.W. Grainger
B.A.R Page 6
The above condition along with the existing conditions
along both streets would seem to suggest a more
practical response to the compliance with landscaping
requirements. The applicant on advice of the Staff
revised their landscape plan to provide additional
landscaping in specified areas of the site. The revised
landscape plan shows only shrubs located within the
proposed landscaping islands flanking the driveways.
For clarification purposes, Condition # 6c of
this report has been added concerning the relocation or
replacement of the existing frontage trees.
In addition to the condition of relocating or replacing
the existing frontage landscaping within the property
line, the staff recommends providing additional trees
which would have been located along the east property
line to the street frontage area. See Condition #
6b. of this Staff Report.
(4) Building Design.
a. Architectural style is not restricted, evaluation
of a project should be based on quality of its
design and relationship to its surroundings.
b. Buildings should be to appropriate scale and in
harmony with permanent neighboring developments.
c. Building components - such as windows, doors, eaves
and parapets should have good proportions
and relationship to one another. Building
components an ancillary parts shall be consistent
anticipated life of the structure.
d. Colors should be harmonious, with bright or
brilliant colors used only for accent.
e. Mechanical equipment or other utility hardware on
roof, ground or buildings should be screened from
view.
f. Exterior lighting should be part of the
architectural concept. Fixtures, standards, and
all exposed accessories should be harmonious with
building design.
g. Monotony of design in single or multiple buildings
projects should be avoided. Variety of detail,
form and siting should be used to provide visual
interest.
All exterior materials and finish will match the
existing. All building lighting will match the
existing. Although slightly higher, the addition is in
scale with the existing structure.
CONCLUSIONS
STAFF REPORT to the 90 -2 -DR: W.W. Grainger
B.A.R. Page 7
5) Miscellaneous Structures and Street Furniture.
a. Miscellaneous structures and street furniture
should be designed to be part of the architectural
concept of design and landscape. Materials should
be compatible with buildings, scale should be
appropriate, colors should be in harmony with
buildings and surroundings, and proportions should
be to scale,
b. Lighting in connection with miscellaneous
structures and street furniture should meet the
guidelines applicable to the site, landscape and
buildings.
No additional miscellaneous structures or street
furniture were proposed with this addition.
1. Railroad spur line along east property line will not
allow for installation of side yard landscaping in the
normal perimeter location.
2. The existing frontage landscaping to be removed due to
the installation of the sidewalk should be relocated or
replaced in the remaining frontage landscaping areas.
3. The proposed addition is consistent with the existing
structure and site development and will not be
detrimental to the surrounding area.
4. As noted by the City in the environmental review (MDNS),
the recommended conditions regarding landscaping allow
the opportunity to mitigate the loss of frontage
landscaping due to the requirement for the installation
of sidewalk.

To construct a square foot addition to an
existing warehouse /office /retail use.
7625 Todd Boulevard
W.W. Grainger, Inc. (Alfred Croonquist,
Architects)
EPIC -7 -90 and 90 -2 -DR
THRESHOLD
DETERMINATION: This is a Mitigated Declaration of
Non - Significance
The environmental review consisted of analysis based on the
following documents included in the environmental record:
Development plans (sheets 1 - 3)
Landscape plans (sheet 1)
Environmental Checklist (February 2, 1990)
There has been no previous environmental review for this
project.
The proposal includes the construction of a 17,700 square foot
addition to an existing warehouse /office /retail structure,
modifications of existing front entry, a•15 stall expansion of
the existing parking, and additional landscaping.
To accomplish the proposal the following actions will be
required: Importing of approximately 2,700 cubic yards of fill.
Construction addition. Construction interior alterations and
add new entry at northwest corner of structure. Construct
expansion to parking area providing additional 15 parking
spaces. Provide new landscaping along a portion Olympic Ave
South and adjacent to new entry.
Exterior of addition will include tilt -up concrete walls painted
to match existing color, adding building lighting to match

PERMITS REQUIRED
* Design Review approval
* Grading permit
* Building Permit
* Street Use /Utility permits
* Potential Developer's Agreement (off -site improvements)
CHECKLIST ITEMS
A. WATER
Existing surface water runoff from the site drains into the
P -5 channel. The existing on -site stormwater runoff
drainage control system does not include oil /water
separators in the catch basins. This allows pollutants to
enter the City's drainage system. Providing retro -fit
oil /water separators on site at the northwest of the
property before discharge into the City's drainage system
would mitigate the entry of the pollutants. See Condition
# 4.
In addition, during heavy rains "ponding" due to drainage
from railroad line occurs at the southeast corner of the
site. Adding fill to raise the undeveloped portion of the
site and the additional structure will remove a portion of
the "ponding" area requiring a diversion of the runoff into
the City's drainage system. Development plans should
include provisions (biofiltration swales and /or piping) for
this storm water runoff. See Condition # 5.
B. TRANSPORTATION
The intersection of West Valley Highway /Todd Boulevard
currently operates at Level of Service (LOS) C. The
proposal is not expected to reduce that LOS, however, the
intersection is currently experiencing traffic, queuing, and
turning movement problems.
There are no sidewalks in the immediate vicinity requiring
pedestrians (based on field observation) to use existing
roadways creating unsafe conditions. Section 11.64.020 of
the Tukwila Muncipal Code (TMC) requires the installation of
sidewalks upon the substantial remodel (increasing the floor
area by at least twenty percent) of an existing structure.
The proposed addition represents an increase in floor area
of forty -five percent.
To mitigate the impacts of increased traffic, the
installation of sidewalks along the site's frontage will be
required. See Condition # 11.
P. 3 /MDNS, EPIC -7 -90/ W.W. Grainger, Inc. Addition
To mitigate impacts of increased traffic, a number of
specific measures to enhance safety and operational
efficiency of the West Valley Highway /Todd Boulevard
intersection should be required. These measures include
establishing or repainting crosswalks, installing
directional signs for vehicular traffic, installing turning
movement signs, and striping. They have been identified in
the Entranco investigation and are listed in condition # 10.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Issuance of a Mitigated Determination of Non - Significance is
appropriate since the environmental review indicates some
impact, but no probability of significant adverse environmental
impacts from the proposal.
The mitigation provided as part of the proposal includes:
An addition to the existing storm drainage system was
proposed to provide drainage from the parking lot expansion.
Additional Mitigation required of the proposal includes:
A. AIR
1. To mitigate adverse air quality impacts of construction
during dry weather, the construction area shall be
watered to suppress dust and the roadways flushed.
B. WATER
2. To mitigate adverse impacts to water quality from
siltation impacts, temporary siltation control measures
shall be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of
a Grading Permit.
3. To mitigate adverse water quality impacts to the storm
water system from sedimentation•, tire cleaning
provisions shall be made and any existing catch basins
where mud is likely to collect should be protected by
filter fabric.
4. Existing catch basin at the northwest corner of site
shall be retro- fitted or replaced with an oil /water
separator.
5. To mitigate the loss of "ponding" area for storm water
runoff from railroad track, the development plans shall
include the provision of biofiltration swales and /or
piping of runoff into the City's storm drainage system.

A. Where existing topographic patterns contribute to beauty and utility of
a development, they should be recognized and preserved and enhanced.
B. Grades of walks, parking spaces, terraces, and other paved areas should
promote safety and provide an inviting and stable appearance.
C. Landscape treatment should enhance architectural features, strengthen
vistas and important axis, and provide shade.
D. In locations where plants will be susceptible to injury by pedestrian
or motor traffic, mitigating steps should be taken.
E. Where building sites limit planting, the placement of trees or shrubs
in paved areas is encouraged.
F. Screening of service yards, and other places which tend to be un-
sightly, should be accomplished by use of walls, fencing, planting or
combinations of these. Screening should be effective in winter and
summer.
G. In areas where general planting will not prosper, other materials such
as fences, walls, and pavings of wood, brick, stone, or gravel may be
used.
H. Exterior lighting, when used, should enhance the building design and
the adjoining landscape. Lighting standards and fixtures should be of
a design and size compatible with the building and adjacent area.
Lighting should be shielded, and restrained in design. Excessive
