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.

He planned to expand the garage along the property line not realizing that the City's setback requirements were more stringent than the County's. He feels that to implement the codes of the City would give him an odd looking building. The City denied his application and the Board of Adjustment denied his appeal. Mr. Holstein requested that Council review his case. Mayor VanDusen explained that the board's decision is appealable only through the court system. However, it may be possible to request another hearing by the Board of Adjustment. CONSENT AGENDA a.

RC: ' Sensitive Area Ordittdrtue murdluriuiri regarding properly located at S.W. Corner of 1 -402 and West Valley Highway; 15635 West Valley High' ay Sensitive Area #17 CITY CLERK Section 2 Criteria for Waiver "For those who feel the moratorium on their property is creating a unique hardship for financial, personal, or other reasons, may petition in writing to the City Council: Under the above criteria I would like to petition the City Council for a waiver of the moratorium so that I may proceed with my development for a Motor Inn on the above referenced property regarding seeking approvals from shoreline authorities, SEPA, design review and obtaining building permits. If this Waiver is granted I would be willing, with the property owner to 'execute for recording an agreement that all such continued process be subject to the provisions of any Sensitive Area Ordinance passed before the termination of this moratorium and ackrowledges that such is continued at their (our) request and at their (our) risk and expense'. OR:1566 Sep Lriteria for waiver t;, The basic outline for Sensitive Area Ordinance' has now been written and consequently will give a developer a direction for developing in the areas impacted by the Sensitive Area Ordinance, The development process takes approximately 6 months, and presently I'm paying $8,000 a month lease on a non productive land parcel. This is causing a financial hardship on me which would be mitigated if during this moratorium I would be allowed to continue the development process, based on the forgoing agreement of compliance with the final Sensitive Area Ordinance. Tukwilla City Hall Jane Cantu June 13, 1990 Page 2 If final compliance Is assured, what harm is being done to the community by my continued development of the project, but rather a positive situation sooner for all parties, landlord can sell his property, developer (myself) can have a productive project arid the city and the community receives additional property tax revenue, jnls (hiring construction, and new jobs and a service to the community by a developed final project. Consequently I would like to petition the City Council for a waiver of the moratorium so that I may continue my development so that all parties (City, Landlord, and Developer) can mutually benefit sooner. Sincerely, Larry Sha LS /cls ey PETITIONER: PROPERTY LOCATION: PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION: EFFECT OF MORATORIUM: The moratorium Ordinance No. 1544 precludes filing of new development- related applications in sensitive areas. The applicant's property is located in a designated wetland. The applicant wishes the waiver in order to proceed with the shoreline /environmental /design review /building permitting processes which are required prior to development. Lifting the moratorium will enable this to occur more quickly. IMPACT OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS ORDINANCE: It appears that the applicant's property lies at the edge of Tukwila. Wetland #17, as delineated by Tukwila's wetland /sensitive area study. Based on the applicant's survey, the property line seems to lie in the buffer zone adjacent to the wetland. A 50 foot buffer is required next to this wetland. It is shown on the attached site plan. No development - related applications have been filed due to the moratorium on development pending the finalization of the Sensitive Areas Ordinance. DECISION CRITERIA: STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL 2. The best interests of the City of the individual; APPENDIX 2 3. The circumstances and hardship 4. The damage that could result moratorium.
