STAFF REPORT ABBOT LABORATORIES AGENDA ITEM INTRODUCTION The Abbot Laboratories building at 301 Tukwila Parkway was recently sold and issued a building permit for remodeling to retail and office use. The intersec- tion of Tukwila Parkway and Andover Park West is about to be improved, including street widening. To facilitate widening of Andover Park West, the City is requesting a variance from the landscaping requirements on the Abbot Laboratories. Additional street right -of -way will require reducing the landscaping from 15 feet to 10 feet. FINDINGS 1. On April 23, 1985, a building permit was issued for remodeling the Abbot Laboratories building to an office and retail center to be know as "The Annex ". The development complied with Zoning Code regulations, including 21 feet of landscaping along Andover Park West. 2. This summer the City and State will be improving Tukwila Parkway between the "S- Line" and "T- Line" bridges. Improvement of the intersection with Andover Park West includes widening the east side of this street along The Annex pro- perty. The addition of a right turn lane and sidewalk will require taking 11 feet of The Annex property. As a sresult the 21 feet of approved landscaping will be reduced to 10 feet of landscaping. 3. The Annex property owner has been cooperative and amenable to dedicating the required right -of -way provided approved parking is not reduced or modified. Landscaping, not parking, is affected by the variance request. The owner is agreeable to the City seeking the variance. 4. Existing landscaping on the east side of Andover Park West and south of the subject site is generously more than the 15 -foot zoning Code requirement. (TMC 18.52.020). Different landscaping designs include lawn and trees or groundcover, trees and shrubs. 5. The Annex property is essentially level and can accommodate additional parking and /or another smaller building. The shape of the property is rectangular , and the approved building expansion will lie 70 feet from the existing west property line. 6. In the CBD area there appears to not be similar variances granted in the past. Page 2 Board of Adjustment May 16, 1985 7. The Board of Adjustment may approve, modify or deny the variance request per the variance criteria of TMC 18.72.020. CONCLUSION 1. Criteria TMC 18.72.020(1): "The variance shall not constitute a grant of spe- cial privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon uses of ther properties in the vicinity and in the zone in which the property on behalf of which the application was filed is located." If the variance is granted the residual landscaping will be unique in the CBD area. However, the City's current drafting of the Sidewalk Plan will even- tually implement sidewalk constrtuction which will reduce existing landscaping to less than Zoning Code requirements. In addition, future potential roadway improvements in the area, especially at intersections, will impact adjacent landscaping similar to the subject site. The City will not be given a "special privilege" in this application, but will be permitted to improve Andover Park West to accommodate existing and future traffic in the CBD. When similar improvements become necessary elsewhere in the area, the City will similarly impact adjacent properties. 2. Criteria TMC 18.72.020(2): "The variance is necessary because of special cir- cumstances relating to the size, shape, topography, location or surrounding of the subject property in order to provide it with use rights and privileges permitted to other properties in the vicinity and in the zone in which the subject property is located." Current approved improvements to The Annex property preclude adding one lane to Andover Park West while not producing a nonconforming landscaping situation. The needed 11 feet of right -of -way will reduce the approved 15 feet of landscaping to 10 feet of landscaping. This amount of right -of -way is the minimum necessary to construct a right turn lane and relocate the required 6 foot sidewalk. Construction of these improvements cannot otherwise be accomplished in the existing space between the existing right -of -way and the approved Annex parking area. 3. Criteria TMC 18.72.020(3): "The granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and in the zone in which the subject property is situated." Material detriment or injury to other properties or the public will not occur as a result of granting the variance. The visual impact will be noticeable to the extend dependent upon what landscaping the City installs to mitigate the roadway improvement. Otherwise, a public benefit of decreased traffic congestion will benefit the entire community. 4. Criteria TMC 18.72.020(4): "The authroization of such variance will not adversely affect the implementation of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan." EXHIBITS (BOA.ABB) ..,. n...,:,...

The improvement of this intersection will increase the efficiency of traffic circulation while minimizing the impact on the existing environment (Objective 1, p. 72 and Policy 12, p. 74, Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan). Therefore, the Plan's implementation is enhanced by the variance. 5. Criteria TMC 18.72.020(5): "The granting of such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the appli- cant possessed by the owners of other properties in the same zone or vicinity." The variance is necessary for the Annex parking to be installed as approved without revision to provide for the 15 -foot landscaping requirement. This would be the same circumstance for other developed properties in the area where streets may be widened. In this instance the Annex's need for parking to satisfy the economic constraints of the development is met as priority right above the need for conforming landscaping. PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION Based upon the above staff preliminarily recommends that the variance be approved.

As I understand it, the owner is requesting a variance of 5 feet of the required 15 feet of landscaping made necessary by a right -hand turn lane being constructed on Andover Park West. I always thought, in the past, that Abbott Labs landscaping was not in keeping with its neighbors to the south (our facility and Fatigue Technology). If the 5 feet in question would have an impact and be than desirable in the opinion of the Tukwila Board of Adjustments, then we would be opposed to a variance. If, on the other hand, it was the opinion of the Tukwila Board of Adjustments that the removal of 5 feet did not detract from the overall landscaping effect, than we would not be in opposition to a variance. 3M EXHIBIT 4 •19OB March 14, 1985 Mr. .Eric.

Re: Abbott Labs - Revised Utility Plan Sheet 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 Per past development of this property special connection charges for water and sewer are not applicable The Public Works Department has reviewed your plans and approved sheets 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 (Job No. 85004.01 - February 1, 1985) Per the following comments and conditions: 1. Prior to issuance of any Utility Permits, authorization for release of these permits shall be provided by the Planning Director and the Building Official. Also, prior to issuance of any permit, the Fire Marshal shall have approved the fire loop, sprinkler vault /hydrant/ fire protection plans for the development. The following permits are released under the understanding as provided as follows: The developer has agreed as part of this redevelopment to provide the City with the necessary right -of -way as described on Exhibit "A" (attached) upon receipt of the successful waivers now being.applied iy for by Public Works through the Planning Department and Board of Adjustment. The waivers consists of allowing for credit by the development for variances to landscaping requirements adjacent to Andover Park West and Tukwila Parkway in those areas where right- of-way is being given so that the necessary right turn lane on Andover Park West and sidewalks can be provided for the benefit of the traveling Public. Upon obtaining the waiver through the Board of Adjustment, the deve- loper agrees to provide the necessary right -of -way within 45 calen- dar days of receiving written notice from the City that this process is successfully completed. In consideration for the donation of the right -of -way, the City will build that portion of the sidewalk system on Andover Park West to and including the curb around the curb radius only; the development shall be responsible for building, now, as part of Abbott Labs Construction, the sidewalk along Tukwila Parkway from the easterly property line to the beginning of the new curb radius in Tukwila Parkway (see plans). Included in the developments sidewalk construction shall be removing of any swale curbing that now exist in Tukwila Parkway and replacing with a vertical curb at the development's expense. If the City fails to secure the necessary waivers in the future, the development shall be required (as part of their sidewalk permit) to provide a design for a completed sidewalk on Andover Park West including utility relocations for light standards, hydrants, meters, etc., and provide a vertical, concrete curb and gutter section per the City's standard Plans and provide and build a completed concrete sidewalk all at their own expense. This work shall be included as part of the normal development process and shall be complete prior to the City's sign -off of this development. In the mean time, the City shall expedite as quickly as possible, the waiver process to secure the necessary variances to allow for the right turn lane and relocated sidewalk. Your cooperation in this matter is most appreciated. The following permits shall be applied for and obtained prior to beginning the construction of the related elements of this project: 1. Curb Cut /Access /Sidewalk Permit - (Permit Fee: $25.00) - The con- ditions of this permit shall be per the above paragraphs related to the new right turn lane and sidewalk system and the additional com- ments as provided. Driveway Aprons, sidewalks, handicapped ramps, curb and gutters shall be per the City's Standard Plans and per Ordinance 1233. It should be emphasized that the curb and gutters on Tukwila Parkway shall be per the City's Standards for vertical curb and gutter section so that there is a complete separation bet- ween vehicular and pedestrian travel. The sidewalk shall be 6 feet in width (this development is neither C -1 or C -2 zoned). Included in providing the new sidewalk, street lights and hydrants shall be relocated behind the new walkway. Adjustments to valves, manhole and vaults shall be provided flush with the elevation of the new sidewalk. Sanitary sewer manholes shall be adjusted to the new sidewalk grade and provided with locking manhole cover lids. Since the 2 3 City's work will go after your construction, you will build an asphalt drive to existing curb without apron and match elevation of proposed new sidewalk (coordinate elevations with INCA). 2. Storm Drain Permit - (Permit Fee: $25.00) - All pipe under paved areas (from catch basin to catch basin) shall be corrugated metal pipe, mini - mum Class 14 Galvanized /Aluminum coated or Aluminum. All storm drain pipe shall be provided with a minimum of 12" of cover throughout and in Class "B" bedding. No storm line shall be built at a less grade than 0.5%. A control manhole provided and shall be per King County stan- dards. Included in this design shall be 2' minimum clearance from the cleanout gate to the end of the inlet pipe. The NOTE under "Chain -200 lbs. capacity" shall be changed to the following: "slack when gate is down, weld to frame."
