MOVED BY MORIWAKI, SECONDED BY DUFFIE, TO
FORWARD THIS ISSUE TO THE SPECIAL MEETING ON
JULY 23. MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor VanDusen opened the hearing at 7:33 p.m. Rick Beeler,
Director of DCD, explained that Sharley Development is requesting
the waiver to be able to proceed with and complete the Shoreline
Review, SEPA, Design Review and Building Permit process to
develop an 111 unit motel on property located at the southwest
corner of 1-405 and the West Valley Highway, 15635 West Valley
Highway. The property is adjacent to Wetland #17 and would require
a 50 foot buffer; otherwise, the property is essentially flat.
Larry Sharley, Sharley Development Co., expressed hardship because
he is paying $8,000 per month on undeveloped land. He is willing to
file an agreement to conform to the adopted Sensitive Areas
Ordinance and to process the application at his own risk and expense.
Councilman Duffle commented that he is not in favor of granting the
waiver because the final SAO may change the requirements in the
area.
MOVED BY RANTS, SECONDED BY ROBERTSON, THAT THE
WAIVER BE GRANTED TO ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO
CONTINUE WITH ALL PERMIT PROCESSES UP TO THE
POINT OF CONSTRUCTION. MOTION CARRIED WITH
DUFFIE VOTING NO.
The hearing was declared open at 7:55 p.m. Rick Beeler explained
that the applicant's property is located at 15200 S. 151st Street. He
needs a waiver in order to proceed with and complete the EIS and
design review for two 8 unit apartment buildings. There are steep
slopes on the western portion of the property. Staff is recommending
the request be denied based upon the speculative nature of the
proposal. No definite development plan is proposed.
Amir Husseini, A & H Corporation, informed the Council that the
purchase price of the property included the design of the 8 unit
buildings which were drawn up in 1985.
It was determined that site plans were available but had not been
given to the Planning Department for review. At Councilman
Robertson's suggestion, the applicant agreed to return to the Planning
Department and amend his waiver to ir...rb. tbn site p1Ans. Mr
Beeler noted he could review the plans prior to next week's meeting.
MOVED BY ROBERTSON, SECONDED BY MORIWAKI, TO
POSTPONE A DECISION ON THIS MATTER AND CONTINUE
THE PUBLIC HEARING AT THE SPECIAL MEETING ON
JULY 23. MOTION CARRIED.
The hearing was opened at 8:05 p.m. According to Rick Beeler, the
applicant is seeking a waiver in order to expand the existing data
center with computer room and mechanical room expansions.

The existing building and the requested expansion occur in the flat
portion of the property. The slope on the property will not be touched
or impacted by the proposed expansion. Portions of the existing paved
parking would be removed and replaced by structure.
Leonard Ruff, Callison Partnership, explained that there is no room
for growth in the data processing's present configuration. The
proposed addition represents about five years worth of anticipated
growth. The slope is the only sensitive area on the property; the
proposed addition will have no impact on the slope.

*MOTION CARRIED.
It was reported that the Transportation Committee had recommended
the large capacity dump truck and snow plow be removed from the
mid year budget change and be forwarded to the 1991 budget.
Finance Director Alan Doerschel clarified that the monies for the
street trucks will come out of the Ending Fund Balance in the Street
Fund. Therefore, any trucks denied will not free up money for new
positions. Councilman Rants commented that it appeared there was
more budget work for 1991 to be done before approving additional
mid-year hiring this year. It has been proposed that Council hold a
mini retreat to take an in -depth look at the overall budgeting process.
Mayor VanDusen commented on the importance of the policy making
body to look closely at the spending plans. He reiterated his'priority
hirings for mid -year to be the five police officers and the assistant to
the City Administrator.

Re: Security Pacific Bank Washington
Riverton Operations Center Expansion
Sensitive Area Ordinance
Project Number 89163
Dear Sirs:
Security Pacific Bank Washington has retained our firm to provide architectural services for the
expansion of the Bank's existing data center located at 12400 East Marginal Way South. The
project consists of an approximate 15,000 square foot computer room addition and an approximate
900 square foot mechanical room addition.
Along the south edge of the property is a slope of greater than 15% which brings the site under
the requirements of the Sensitive Area Ordinance. The proposed additions would be located
directly adjacent to the existing buildings on the relatively flat area of the site. No development
is proposed for any area of the site having a slope of 15% or greater.
We therefore request that the City Council grant a Sensitive Area Ordinance waiver for the
proposed project.
Enclosed please find a location map and vicinity map to assist you in evaluating this request.
Please do not hesitate to call if we can provide any additional information.
Sincerely,
Leonard A. Ruff

APPENDIX 1
JUN
PETITIONER: Security Pacific Automation Company
PROPERTY LOCATION: 12400 East Marginal Way South, Tukwila
PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION: The petitioner proposes to expand the
existing data center with computer room
and mechanical room expansions.
EFFECT OF MORATORIUM:
STAFF REPORT
TO THE
CITY COUNCIL
The moratorium Ordinance No. 1544 precludes filing of new
development- related applications in sensitive areas. The
southern portion of the applicant's property contains slopes in
excess of 15 %. The proposed additions would be located directly
adjacent to the existing buildings on the relatively flat area of
the site. Existing parking lot would be removed and replaced by
structures housing less staff - intensive uses. Development is not
proposed for any part of the site with a slope greater than 15 %.
The applicant wishes the waiver in order to stay on schedule for
completing the construction prior to the onset of winter weather.
Since the project is an extension of the existing facility, the
applicant needs to have the new construction closed up before the
rainy weather complicates the process of integrating the
structures.
The applicant wishes to proceed with the Shoreline, SEPA, BAR,
and building permit process.
IMPACT OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS ORDINANCE:
Portions of the property have slopes between 15% and 40% No
construction is proposed for the sensitive portions of the
property. The project would not result in a significant increase
in impervious surface since portions of the existing paved
parking would be removed and replaced by structure.
DECISION CRITERIA:
APPENDIX 2
Ordinance NO. 1550 states that the City Council shall use the
following criteria to review waiver requests:
1. Intent of the moratorium;
2. Best interests of the City weighed against the interests of
the individual;
3. Circumstances and hardship caused by the, moratorium;
4. Damage that could result from strict adherence to the
moratorium.

Ms. Rebecca Fox
City of Tukwila
Community Development
6300 South Center Blvd.
Tukwila, WA 98188
Dear Ms. Fox:
This letter is to request your consideration in providing relief from your current moratorium and schedule
for accepting the application for the expansion project of our computer center facility, located at 12400 East
Marginal Way South. The project is critical in providing additional space for the computer equipment
required to support our growth and the increasing service demands of our customers.
We realize we are located in an environmentally sensitive area and request consideration of the fact that
this project will not result in a significant increase in the impervious surface and thus will not increase the
surface water drainage volume. Basically, existing paved parking would be removed and replaced by a
structure. This reflects the effect of removing 300 of the Bank Card staff from the facility and decision to
expand machine computer operations, which is not a people intensive operation.
We are very concerned with the weather we will likely encounter during the construction schedule if the
request is not granted. Since the project is an extension of the existing facility, we need to have the new
construction closed up before the worst winter weather significantly complicates the schedule and the process
of integrating the structures.
We hope you will consider this request favorably and please let us know if we can provide any additional
information.
Sincerely,
Sanderson
