Irrigation shall be provided for all landscaped areas. Mr. Kirsop asked about the fire lane? Jack Pace, Senior Planner, answered this recommendation is necessary to meet the fire code. Chairman Haggerton asked about the requirement for sidewalks? Jack Pace, Senior Planner, answered sidewalks are required the full length of the property. Chairman Haggerton stated as you drive down Todd Boulevard there is not a "Stop" sign, just a "Yield" sign. This seems to present a hazard. Jack Pace, Senior Planner, answered that Public Works has requested some changes in signs on this and other projects. Bob Bishop, Real Estate Manager for W. W.

MISCELLANEOUS Louise Strander, 15000 57th Avenue, presented letter to the Planning Commission signed by herself and five citizens requesting the Planning Commission to ask the Tukwila City Council to send the Grading and Clearing Ordinance to the Planning Commission for discussion and hearings. Mrs. Strander stated this same request is being sent to the City Council. Catherine Harris and Marie E. Gardner, representing Tukwila Citizens for Quality Government Committee, read a letter to the Planning Commission requesting the Planning Commission to request the Tukwila City Council to specifically refer the Ground Cover Preservation /Building /Grading; the Hillside Esthetics; and the Wetland (and /or the Wetland portion of the S.A.O. ordinance) ordinances to the Planning Commission for its normal public hearing process, deliberation and recommendation to the Council. Jack Pace, Senior Planner, said the City Council is working on these three ordinances. They have not decided whether they want the Grading and Clearing ordinance to . before the Planning Commission or not. George Malina, 15617 47th South, said one of the Councilmembers has said the packets are ready to be sent to the Planning Commission. They are undecided on the action.

VanDusen, Mayor HEARING DATE: April 26, 1990 STAFF REPORT TO THE BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW PREPARED APRIL 20, 1990 FILE NUMBER: 90- 14 -SPE Foster High School APPLICANT: South Central School District Approval of a temporary Cooperative Parking Agreement to provide for the construction of Foster High School. LOCATION: 4640 South 144th Street, Tukwila, WA. ATTACHMENTS: A) Area Map B) Showalter School Site Map C) St. Thomas Catholic Church Parking Agreement D) School District Memo E) Parking Standards Foster Staff Report pg.2 DECISION CRITERIA The Cooperative Parking Agreement Criteria is listed below in BOLD, followed by pertinent findings of fact. TMC 18.56.070 states that a Cooperative Parking Agreement is required when two or more uses occupy the same building or when two or more buildings or uses cooperatively share an off - street parking facility and that the total requirements for off - street parking and loading facilities shall be at least the sum of the requirements for the greater of the uses at any one time or as deemed necessary by the Planning Commission. All applications for cooperative parking shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission. BACKGROUND COOPERATIVE PARKING AGREEMENT The Planning Commission previously approved a permanent Cooperative Parking Agreement for the new High School which required 282 on -site parking stalls with the following conditions: 1. When activities /events are scheduled in such a manner as to require the simultaneous use of any combination of the high school complex facilities and thereby generate parking demand which will exceed the on -site 282 parking stalls, the School District shall provide necessary staffing and signs to direct traffic to nearby designated overflow parking locations. Failure on the part of the School District to do so may cause rescission of this agreement. 2. If there is a demonstrated consistent daytime (high school use) parking demand which exceeds the on -site 282 parking stall capacity for the high school use, the matter shall be reviewed at a public hearing before the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission may at that time require the School District to construct the additional on -site parking (as shown on the site plan as future parking) in a reasonable period of time. Discussion in the accompanying staff report based on a transportation consultant's review stated that "the current site appears to be under- utilized". It provides approximately 160 spaces for the High School and Library. Foster Staff Report pg.3 DISCUSSION This proposal is related to the construction of Foster High School As shown in Attachment A - to facilitate construction - the School District has requested approval to place two portable classrooms on the eastern portion of the property to provide classroom space for the students in the Foster High School Program. The present parking lot of 160 spaces will be used as a construction staging site. Parking facilities will be relocated to the existing Showalter Middle School site as shown in Attachment B. The existing parking lot will be re- striped to provide more spaces and a new parking lot will be built. In addition, the School District has obtained a cooperative parking agreement with St. Thomas Catholic Church with conditions as noted in Attachment C, a preliminary approval from the City of Tukwila Parks Department for the use of the parking area at Foster Memorial Park. They have also indicated their willingness to provide additional parking if required in an adjacent sports field as noted in Attachment D. Tukwila Municipal Code Section 18.56.070 allows for cooperative parking facilities if those provided equal the "sum of the greater of the uses at any one time or as deemed necessary by the Planning Commission ". The following table presents parking requirements: Middle School High School 57 Staff 56 Staff 264 Students = 86 spaces = 56 spaces = 106 spaces Total Parking Required 158 spaces The total amount of parking available on - site is 142 spaces or 16 spaces which is a reduction of 11 %. The applicant has provided for 50 on -site spaces through the re- striping of an existing lot (currently in use by the School District Administrative Offices and the Middle School staff) and 92 spaces through the construction of a new lot. A conceptual site plan for the new lot has been submitted. Since the parking area will be a permanent addition to the site, a landscape plan should be submitted and reviewed prior to construction to ensure compliance with landscape and setback requirements. rements. An additional 100 spaces would be available through a cooperative agreement with St. Thomas Catholic Church as noted in Attachment C. Approval of the agreement by the City would require the construction of an elevated pathway across school property, lighting, and approval of the final site plan by the Planning Director. It would also require the approval of the agreement and additional security measures by the Tukwila Police Department. Foster Staff Report pg.4 CONCLUSIONS There are two other opportunities for parking - through a cooperative agreement with the City of Tukwila Parks Department for the use of parking at Foster Memorial Park and by extending the parking area adjacent to Showalter Middle School into an existing sports field. Both proposals would require additional review to ensure the safety and access of the users. 1. The primary use of the parking will be during school hours with some use in the evenings for sports events and meetings. 2. The current enrollment for the High School is for approximately 420 students. Enrollment is not expected to increase in the near future. The existing parking lot (with 160 stalls) is underutilized. During the past school year, 70 parking passes were issued to students. 3. The proposal does not meet the minimum requirements for parking as defined in the criteria: "total requirements for off - street parking and loading facilities shall be at least the sum of the requirements for the greater of the uses at any one time "; however, the reduction of 11% is consistent with previous decisions of the Planning Commission. 4. The revision of the parking area should be reviewed to ensure it meets landscape and setback standards. 5. Access from the parking areas to the school should be closely reviewed and designed to enhance security and aesthetics. Foster Staff Report pg.5 RECOMMENDATIONS The Planning Division staff recommends approval of the Cooperative Parking Agreement proposal with the following conditions: Prior to Building Permit Approvals 1. Applicant will submit a detailed landscape plan which will incorporate the following items for approval of the Planning Director: a) landscape materials - type, quantity and location b) location of pathway from church parking lot to school c) construction details and cross- section of pathway for the new parking area and the revisions of the existing parking lot for approval of the Planning Director. Attachment E provides an example of the City's design standards for parking lots. 2. Applicant will submit a lighting plan indicating how the parking areas and the path from the church parking lot to the school will be illuminated. 3. Approval of plan by the Police Department and the Public Works Department to address issues of safety and surface water impacts. 066 aomsfitocroya Femc4 Seam cemrew &time, DIsigicer FEbEsTleiNO 4a.zss Pt-Arki Fosrat- AOC i Tim.)

These measures promote healthy structural growth through elimination of competition for sunlight and air by the innermost portions of the tree. This, in turn, will help slow the lateral and horizontal growth of the tree, leaving the tree balanced and well proportioned for many years. In the case of a tree which has suffered damage to its root system, trimming of approximately 15% to 20% of its leaf foliage will reduce the demands on the roots to supply nutrients. If damage is minimal, the removal of approximately 10% of foliage is sufficient. In both instances, all dead and diseased wood should be removed. Spraying. A spray program should be pre- pared and presented for evaluation by a licensed spray company, for the control and prevention of insect and disease . problems. a uacur cr clicumbi driver's ability. Location The following factors should be consid- ered when determining location of park- ing: Relationship to Uses. Parking should be located in close proximity to related uses. Parking areas located near unrelated uses may cause undesirable disruption or conflict. Existing Topography. Since parking areas must be relatively level, steep grades or rough terrain should be avoided in older to minimize grading and costs. 46 ATTACHMENT E PARKING STANDARDS 'FOSTER HIGH COOPERATIVE PARKING -rte mitaxi.cottuorti - rttc� y to w�vto�l Distance.

It is also desirable in many instan- ces to use several smaller lots rather than a few large expansive parking areas. The location of parking will play an important role in crime prevention.' The closer resident parking is in relation to the dwelling, the more potential crimes such as vandalism, rapes and robberies are discouraged. The orientation of resident windows toward these areas allowing surveillance opportunities will increase crime deter- rents.

Many shopping center developers argue that parking areas must be visible-for customer convenience and attraction. Since close- ness and convenience are important, park- ing location around the center is usually necessary to provide the maximum num- ber of spaces within a reasonable distance. (Generally, 300 feet is considered maxi- mum.) Structure parking exist to dis- courage vandalism. Customer and employee parking should be separated. An employee can become familiar with rules concerning circulation, whereas the customer needs to orient him- self and should be guided through the parking system. The customer will also need to know where the parked car is located in relation to the building entry. 47 r WG6.1101.4 Or' I V1t-1G Wrn4 KIWEcr ID NEW t'lt i MAO Recreation. Location of parking areas will depend on the type of activities. Again, short term activities will usually require parking closer to the activity, whereas day or long term activities may permit parking areas to be located farther away. It would be desirable in any case to locate parking areas with the least intrusion into the site. Access — Entrance and Exit Usually, the larger the parking area, the more latitude there will be in the planning of the street entrances and exits. One driveway opening for entrance and exit may be adequate for a smaller parking facility. It is very difficult to obtain a satisfactory two-way in-and-out traffic movement through a 20 foot or even a 24 foot drive- way. Drivers making a right turn in from a street usually do not stay in the right lane. On the other hand, entrance areas which are excessively large and not properly defined, encourage sloppy and dangerous traffic patterns. Layout The optimum design for a parking area is not necessarily the one which parks the maximum number of vehicles, but the one that also provides ample stall and aisle widths, pedestrian walks, adequate turn- ing radii, reasonable grades, efficient movement of traffic, pleasant appearance, and convenient location. Once a location for parking has been chosen, layout depends on whether to use parking stalls which are perpendicular to the traffic aisle or at an angle to the aisle. From the standpoint of interior traffic, driveways should be located to favor the "in" moving traffic by aligning them with parking traffic aisles. Outbound traffic is moving more slowly and can easily make the turns to reach driveway exits. 1 i4 C.1 lt0 t 41 teg-1 TRArn rant • irea the one [isle urn - ient nee, peen use rto isle.

An excessive number of access points will usually create unnecessary conflict with street traffic. Except in small parking areas, usually a minimum of two access points is desirable. Pedestrian Walks In large parking lots, pedestrian walkways allowing people to move safely should be used. In small parking areas, walkways between lines of parked cars may be diffi- cult to justify in light of economy and proximity to adjacent walks. Walkways lend a pleasant visual pattern to the park- ing area, expecially when planted. Addi- tional space should be provided where cars overhang curbs. 49 ,A, ocr Double Loaded Parking Bays Double loading parking bays means to locate bays on both sides of the access - way. This layout pattern will lessen asphalt coverage, yielding a bonus to the developer and consumer as well as to the environment. trung LLB 01-1Gth LOECl Se Pe Tn cal are e mu t i True: acce tern. man surve .: 1 Separation Between Auto/Truck and People 2 Truck /auto and people, because of physi- cal dimensions and behavioral patterns, are not compatible. Special provision must be made to assure a clear separation. It must also be clear where each belongs. Trucks, for example, many times block accessways, burdening the circulation sys- tem. It is difficult for the trucks to maneuver around cars. Many times the parked cars are not visible from the truck. Maneuvering requirements 511 g Create unpleasant places Make people feel dominated Make a connection between the entry and the car difficult Create unpredictable traffic patterns Make situations which are dangerous for children by attracting children to use it as a playground, regardless of conflict with intermittent vehicles. The problem is that the car is much bigger than a person, and when parking areas are designed solely for the auto, they are insensitive to the human scale. In fact, people try to get out of large parking areas as quickly as possible because they are such an uncomfortable place to be. When do lots become too big? Four to six, essentially, is pedestrian and human in character, and over twelve cars becomes "car dominated territory." The magic number seems to be ten. This marks the breaking point between a human lot and a sea of cars. Small lots can be accom- plished by breaking large parking areas into sections divided with landscape areas. Each section should serve not more than 10 to 12 cars. Landscape islands and areas should be located to protect cars as well as to break up seas of asphalt. l andscaping in Parking Areas Planting within the parking areas will reduce its vast bulk and increase its visual variety, both for those looking at it from 4. Refer to Plant Lists in the Appendix, and to Functional Landscaping a distance and for those walking through it to or from their parked cars. Landscaped areas will also play an impor- tant role in clarifying circulation patterns and separating people, autos and trucks. Plant materials must be carefully selected and strategically located in order to prop- erly function in parking areas.

I In an angle parking layout, the obvious location for planting without decreasing parking stalls is in the island of waste space at the end of each row. 'erformance Parking layout and design should be responsive to the needs of the users it will serve. 5. Refer to Crime Prevention. 6. Refer to Buffering and Screening. Parking layout and In parking lots greater than 20 spaces, pedestrian walkways allowing people to move safely should be provided. Parking layout and design should separate parking areas from loading and delivery areas. All areas used for parking and maneuver- ing of vehicles should be properly graded and drained to provide for the disposal of all surface water on the site. Tire stops should be provided. All parking and loading are should be screened from adjacent areas. All areas not used for vehicular maneuver- ing should be landscaped. All landscaping in parking areas should be located in defined planting areas. Landscaping in parking areas should pre- serve sighting distances between 3 feet and 5 feet measured from the ground level. Landscaping should be designed to facili- tate continuous maintenance. Landscape areas should not be less than 5 feet in width and protected with curbing.63 MEMORANDUM SOUTH CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT TO: JACK PACE CITY OF TUKWILA FROM: TERRI PATTON BUSINESS MANAGER RE: Issue #1: Issue #2: TEMPORARY PARKING /FOSTER HIGH SCHOOL TRANSITION PROJECT DATE: APRIL 10, 1990 Please contact me if any further information is needed.

Per TMC 18.56.050 Table 4, high school uses require parking at the following ratios 1:1 parking space /staff and 2/5 parking spaces /students or visitors, and junior high school uses require a ratio of 1:1.5 parking spaces /staff. Accordingly, the sum of the uses for off - street parking for both the high school and middle school uses is calculated to be as follows: Total parking available on -site is 92 spaces in thealand 50 spaces in th itasiolk for a total of 142 spaces or 98 spaces below the sum of the greater uses at any one time. 9,2 + �D 142, Consequently, the Planning Commission needs to approve the use of either shared parking with the church adjacent to the school site and not fully used during the school day or from the off -site school property at Foster Memorial Park, which is less than a mile away. Alternatively, the Planning Commission could approve only 142 parking spaces as necessary. It can be argued that Foster High School Student parking permits only total 70 spaces now rather than the 150 required by TMC 18.56.050 Table 4, and,, therefore, the 28 parking space shortage could be deemed not necessary for the actual parking requirements for the sum of uses. South 9entral 4640 SOUTH 144th STREET March 14, 1990 Mr. Rick Beeler Director, DCD City of Tukwila 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, WA 98188 Dear Rick: On March 13, 1990, you received a copy of the School District's Determination of Non - Significance and Environmental Checklist for the Foster High School Transition Project at Showalter Middle School. Since the parking plans for both staff and students are still in the developmental stage, sufficient documentation was not included in our environmental analysis. I request the opportunity provide you with the necessary documentation as it is available. On March 13, 1990, we received verbal confirmation from St. Thomas Catholic Church to use 100 spaces for student, overflow and event parking for 1990 -91. The conditions of the agreement including any compensation, property improvements and security are currently under negotiation. At this time, the only documentation I can provide is a letter from St. Thomas dated October 10, 1989, revealing our preliminary parking discussions. Once the agreement is formalized within the next 10 -14 days, I will forward a copy of the document to you. Also enclosed is a copy of my letter to Don Williams, following our verbal agreement for the contingency use of Foster Memorial Park. Formal approval of the use of the Park is in process. Finally, the reconfiguration plan of the Showalter West parking lot is currently being developed. The plan merely provides for restriping to create 30 spaces. I will send you a copy of this plan when completed. Again, I greatly appreciate the City's cooperation in helping the School District with meeting construction requirements. As we have discussed, it is imperative that the transition construction projects for both the portable units and parking improvements meet the critical deadline of June 1, prior to the demolition of Foster High School. Any assistance you can provide is immensely appreciated! Sincerely, O Terri L.

The 55 spaces at Foster Memorial Park on 53rd Avenue South could serve the District as a student parking lot during the hours of approximately 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. when school is in session. The District would provide shuttle service from this lot to the Showalter Middle School, via District school bus transportation. I appreciate the City's willingness to assist the District in meeting this need by providing the Foster Memorial Park facility as a contingency parking lot. Please accept this letter as a formal request to implement this plan effective September, 1990, for the duration of the District's need in the construction period. TLP:mm Sincerely, Terri L. Patton Business Manager March 9, 1990 Dear Dr. Silver: Dr. Michael Silver South Central Schools 4640 South 144th St. Seattle, WA 98168 4415 South 140th Street Seattle, Washington 98168 206 - 242 -5501 October 10, 1989 The Parish Council and I wish to express our appreciation for your excellent presentation last night. The consensus view was that leasing our classrooms and hall would not be agreeable, no matter what monetary remuneration was proposed. We are in sympathy with the South Central District's dilemma and wish to be as helpful as we possibly.can., So we would happily consider providing as many sites for portables in our field as you need. We are open to further discussion regarding the parking lot usage. Fears were voiced about policing the area on game nights, as well as clean -up of debris. The daily number of parking slots needed clarification. We are also open to providing land for storage contain- ers, if such is a need. I am sorry we cannot meet your desires in toto, but I hope the above will lighten your burdens somewhat. Looking forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. With all best wishes, I am Sincerely yours, %Zo.k_ 3t.ki (Rev.) Ibar G. Lync Pastor nrr - cU- ' 'yU - h1 07:48 I U : S. C . SCHOOL DIET 406 TEL NO: 2 -244 -8602 tE0$ P02 rwR- 7 5 -1990 1145 Wm D.N.D.

Mr. Hegyi stated he would be building the house on the same spot the original house had been and that the moratorium affects only a portion of his property away from the building site. There would be no grading or filling needed. Mr. Hegyi bought the property as an investment and needs to realize a profit. Rick Beeler reported that since the house burned down it is necessary to start from scratch relative to development standards. By today's standards it is questionable whether the 40 percent slope and retaining wall will be able to remain. Anything that would remain, i.e. a foundation, would also have to pass today's standards. Councilman Robertson noted the conditions listed on the staff report and asked if those conditions wouldn't be required anyway. Mr.Beeler responded that due to difficulty in communicating with the applicant, staff wanted to be very clear on what was required. Council President Hernandez asked for comments from citizens in the immediate neighborhood of Mr. Hegyi's property. Scott Nangle, 14140 - 56th Ave. So., commented that developing the property would help the possible erosion problems on the hillside. He stated he is concerned that the project be built in a quality manner. Mayor VanDusen closed the hearing at 8:30 p.m. MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY RANTS, THAT THE WAIVER BE GRANTED SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS THAT A SOIL STABILITY STUDY AND A STORMWATER RUNOFF/DRAINAGE STUDY BE PERFORMED. MOTION CARRIED. The hearing was called to order at 8:32 p.m. Rick Beeler announced that the applicant, Joanne Poirier, was not in attendance. Although not representing the applicant, Mr. Beeler offered the following information. The applicant has requested to undertake required actions to bring her property into compliance with zoning and building codes according to ongoing enforcement actin. In order to pnxxed with the code enforcement process, it is necessary for Mrs. Poirier to request a waiver because there is a wetland on the property as well as slopes over 15 percent. Attorney Colgrove stated that the current stance from his office and Planning is that we would like to help Mrs. Poirier get into compliance if it's possible. She has be informed of the steps she has to take. Those involve obtaining building permits and some type of lot line adjustment. It may involve getting a short plat of a remaining parcel. Mrs. Poirier can't do any of the required actions without a waiver due to the slopes and wetland involved. Mrs. Poirier has created the problems. She maintains that she had certain permits from King County. King County has not been able to find any record of it and Mrs. Pokier has not been able to produce the permits. Now the question is how to solve the problem. If she is forced to remove some buildings, it would represent a large financial loss to her and most certainly involve lepl action. Council President Hernandez asked Rick Beeler for an explanation of the three requirements needed to bring Mrs. Poirier into code compliance. Referencing the site plan, Mr. Beeler responded that building #2 was located just over the property line. In order for Mrs. Poirier to resolve this problem, she could either cut off the portion of building #2 or adjust the property line. Regular Meeting Minutes April 16, 1990 Page 3 PUBLIC HEARINGS Request for Waiver to Ordinance No. 1550 (Moratorium) - Lillian Mott Mayor VanDusen opened the hearing at 8:00 p.m. Lillian ?i iott, 24921 B - 110th Ave. S.E., Kent, is requesting a waiver to allow he to sell her vacant property m order to invest the proceeds for retireme t. The property is located between 148th and 150th on 4820 So. 150th Street. (Lots 6 & 7, Block 2, Adams Home Tracts, Division 2) She has no personal plans to develop the land; however, she feels that the m ratonum brims into question the development potential of her props . Mrs. Mott indicated she has had interested buyers for the land bu the moratorium issue has prevented a completed sale. The buyers ant assurance they will be able to build on the land. Councilman obertson stated that Mrs. Mott does not need a waiver to sell her pro rty. The moratorium does not prevent her from doing that; however, a waiver was granted, she would have to abide by the conditions of th Sensitive Areas Ordinance. Mrs. Mott replied that she was told by a ealtor that she should obtain a waiver before anyone would be interest in buying her property. Sheifears that when the moratorium is ove \she may be left with two lots that she can't do anything with. Rick Beeler, Directory Office of Commydity Development, responded that the question presented to his offi ccee'was how to remove any cloud that the moratorium would have on e conveyance of property to a potential purchaser. Thus was the • s process that might give Mrs. Mott some relief. Councilman R • • rtson inquired if Council would have to grant a waiver to the mo torium that would not include the conditions of the Sensitive Ordinance in order to help Mrs. Mott. Mr. Beeler responded t he was correct. Council President He Iced Mrs. Mott how long she had been listing her property for , prior to the moratorium going into effect and if it would pose a financial hardship for her to wait 60 - 90 days for the moratorium to end Mrs. Mott replied that the land had been on the market for the last three years and that waiting until the moratorium ends probably woulduot create a hardship; however, if the final SAO prevents someone from buildin4 on the property, she may be stuck paying taxes on prom* she can t sell. Mrs. Hernandez stated she didn't feel Mrs. Mott was being restricted from selling her too ppee . She suggested that Mrs. MQtt could sell her property subject the buyei'obtaming a building permit within 60 or 90 days. Coun ; : Robertson clarified that it was Council's intention that the morato um was to be used for things where someone planned to a build or clear property. Mrs. Mott is requesting an unco • tional waiver so she can sell her�prpppeerty. Based upon what the moratorium and the SAO are a�ctualbout, Councilman Robertson does not believe Council can grant a waiver in this case. He suggested that Mrs. Mott seek advice from a realtor. The hearing was closed at 8:15 p.m. MOVED BY ROBERTSON, SECONDED BY\MORIWAKI, TO DENY THE REQUEST FOR WAIVER.* Councilman Robertson clarified that the reason fo the motion to deny is that there is no proposal before Council to do ' g. The only thing that would do Mrs. Mott any good is an uncon 'tional waiver to all the conditions of the SAO. He does not believe t is possible for Council to do. *MOTION CARRIED WITH DUFFLE VOTING NO WAIVER IS DENIED. 7: .

During a field check for plan review, staff discovered that the property was located in a sensitive area. The field check . revealed potential soil stability and stormwater runoff issues. , Staff then notified the petitioner that a waiver :would be required per Ordinance 4 1550 if he wished to continue with. permit processing. IMPACT. OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS ORDINANCE: - • The draft Sensitive Areas. Ordinance establishes performande standards to preserve . hilisides. The standards are more 'strict . as the Slopes:of:the property increase. Although the petitioner intends. to build a house in the same spot where one had previously. stood, the site will require care in its redevelopment. • • The Ordinance does not preclude, single family development, on steep slopes. Any waiver and subsequent granting of a building permit should be contingent on petitioner preparing: • 1. A soil stability study to determine if a retaining wall will be required to .ensure, access; and • 2. A stormwater runoff/drainage study. The petitioner would then be required to abide by any conditions placed on his project according to the results of the studies. . Ordinance 1550 requires the applicant to file an agreement to conform to the final version of the Sensitive Areas . to accept any associated risk and expense. DECISION CRITERIA: 1. The intent of the moratorium. Ordinance 1550 states the City Council must use the following criteria to review waiver requests: 2. The best interests of the City weighed against the interests of the individual. 3. The circumstances and hardship caused by the moratorium. 4. The damage that could result form strict adherence to the moratorium. ATTACHMENTS: 1.
