CANYON PARKING LANDSCAPE • GONC: Ci of Tukwila Planning Division 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 98188 : 433 -1845 Office of Com Development Rudy Maynard Jack A. Benaroya Co. 5950 Sixth Avenue South Seattle, Washington 98108 MC /ckh 15 October 1979 RE: BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW - "CANYON PARKING AREA" LANDSCAPE PLAN On Friday October 12, 1979, I met with Joel Benoliel, legal counsel for the Benaroya Company, and together we determined that construction of the canyon parking area must be prefaced by an application for rezoning of the site. It is premature at this point to analyze a concise landscape plan for this project until the exact location and dimensions of the planter strips, aisleways and so forth are approved by the Planning Com- mission at the rezoning • hearing. Therefore, we are withholding your application for landscape approvals from the B.A.R. agenda of 25 October 1979 until the zoning matter is resolved. Please direct any questions on this matter to my attention. Sincer.
