STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM V) A. . DR- 07 -84: Inn Ventures, Inc.
INTRODUCTION
Inn Ventures proposes to construct a 144 unit motel complex to be known as Brock
Residence Inn at the northeast corner of Strander Blvd. and West Valley Highway,
and adjacent to the Green River. Due to the shoreline location a Shoreline
Substantial Development Permit pursuant to the State Shoreline Management Act is
in the process of review. In addition, TMC 18.60.030(2)(A) requires Board of
Architectural Review of the design and site plan.
FINDINGS
1. TMC 18.60.030(2)(A) requires Board of Architectural Review of the proposal.
TMC 18.60.050 contains design review guidelines for the Board to utilize in
reaching its decision. The Board may approve, modify, or deny the
application.
2. The 6.87 acre property is located in the C -2 zone which permits motel develop-
ment. The proposal consists of 21 buildings, 18 of which are identical 8 -plex
units, all of which are less than 35' in height. Along the West Valley
Highway is proposed a larger structure known as the Gatehouse. Another small
storage structure and cabanna is located adjacent to the pool next to the
Green River. An outdoor sport court and 3 spas are also proposed in the deve-
lopment. A single access is proposed adjacent to the West Valley Highway and
to the Strander Blvd. The buildings are set back slightly more than 40' from
the high water line within which is the dike maintained by the King County
Hydraulics Division.
The method of operation of the proposal is for patrons to be able to stay for
various and extended periods of time enjoying facilities which are complete
living units with all equipment provided.
3. The Public Works Department is coordinating required street improvements in
the rights -of -way of West Valley Highway and Strander Blvd. with the appli-
cant.
4. Except for along the riverbank the property is essentially level. Existing
vegetation is confined to the riverbank area, and consists of only a few deci-
duous trees.

1. TMC 18.60.050(1) Relationship of Structure to Site:
The proposed site plan features appropriate pedestrian facilities and
recreation facilities on site as well as visual break -up of the large amount
of parking required for the facility. Building height is confined to 2 -3
stories which appears to be appropriate for the area.
2. TMC 18.60.050(2) Relationship of Structure and Site to Adjoining Area:
Surrounding Development is a mixture of architecture and building materials.
Therefore, the proposed cedar siding, masonite stuccato board, and concrete
tile roofs will be in contrast with and appears beneficial to the site and
surroundings. The landscaping, although conceptual, indicates appropriate
transition from adjoining land uses and properties. Access to and from the
property and on -site circulation is efficient and convenient for the proposal,
but will require meeting Public Works Department concerns and requirements for
adequate circulation on Strander Blvd. and West Valley Highway. This may
involve dedication of additional right -of -way in West Valley Highway.
3. TMC 18.60.050(3) Landscape and Site Treatment:
The essentially level characteristic of the site produces little opportunity
for grade changes to increase visual interest on the site. However, the
siting of the buildings and landscaping appears to create sufficient visual
interest by capitalizing on the riverfront. Landscaping, although conceptual,
appears to inhance the proposed buildings and outdoor recreation facilities.
Service areas and /or facilities are confined to the Gatehouse and the building
adjacent to the pool. Exterior lighting details were not provided at the time
of drafting the staff report.
4. TMC 18.60.050(4) Building Design:
Due to the existing character of the surrounding development the proposal will
stand out in the area as a distinct and unique architectural statement.
However, the scale of the buildings is appropriate, and the building design
appears to be within the context of the proposed use as a motel for short or
extended stays by families, businessmen, etc. Building design and character
appears essentially the same as one might expect in a large residential home.
The buildings will be painted an ivory, off -white color trimmed in a dark
brown, with a medium brown colored roof. This color scheme seems to be
generally compatible with surrounding development. Exterior lighting fixtures
were not included in the proposal.
The 19 motel units are the same design and configuration. While the orien-
tation of the buildings is altered by change of position, the impression of
some appreciable monotony of design is reasonably apparent. A commendable
attempt has been made to arrange the buildings to create small courtyards
oriented internal to the project, away from the parking lots and river. This
creates a diversion of spaces available to patrons and presentation of

slightly different facades to the parking lots, river, and adjacent develop-
ment and adjacent streets. However, the reasonable conclusion that visual
interest is not provided by variety is very apparent.
5. TMC 18.60.050(5) Miscellaneous Structures and Street Furniture:
External lighting and street lighting details were not provided at the time of
writing the staff report. Therefore, analysis is precluded at this time.
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon the above, staff recommends the Board of Architectural Review approve
the application as submitted subject to:
1. Submission of exterior illumination and street lighting for review and appro-
val by the Planning Department pursuant to the criteria of TMC 18.60.050.
2. Redesign of some of the units to minimize monotony of building design and to
create variety of visual interests. This revision shall be reviewed and
approved by the Planning Department per TMC 18.60.050.
3. Planning Department review and approval of the final landscape plan for con-
formance to TMC 18.60.050 and particularly 18.44.130(2)(C)/140(2)(C)(iii).
4. Site plan revision pursuant to the King County Hydraulics Division, City
Public Works Department and zoning requirements.
5. Access and street right -of -way improvements approved by the Public Works
Department per applicable City ordinances and standards.
Should the Board of Architectural Review find the building design for the proposal
to be acceptable, staff recommends the remaining conditions (1, 3, 4, and 5) be
applied.
NOTICE OF APPEAL
Tukwila Municipal Code Section 18.90.020 specifies that any party agrieved by the
