Attorney Hard reported that on February 8, 1978, the hearing was held before the Court of Appeals and now, the Court has this case under advisement. They will decide whether the City has jurisdiction to proceed with the LID. This is important, if the City loses, there is no jurisdiction to proceed and the City will have to start over to form another LID. * MOTION CARRIED.

The last development shouldn't have been allowed until therm were adequate streets in the area. Mr. E. Mora, applicant, stated that the Mayor's move in imposing a moratorium should not be an issue for denial or approval of the requested waiver.

Chairman Kirsop reconvened the meeting at 10:20 P.M. NEW BUSINESS: Recommendation of Density: 90 Condominiums @ South 152nd (Mora) Mr. Satterstrom read Staff Report and explained drawings. Mr. Enrique Mora, applicant, noted the location of the low, medium and high density residential areas on the Comprehensive Plan map are somewhat debatable and actual placement of those lines severely impact the density. Cost of land demands higher density. Compared the proposed density (30 /acre) to King County's RM -1800 in con- trast to Tukwila's R -4 zone (43 /acre) and King County's RM -900 (48 /acre). Commission discussed exterior treatment, cost of units and site design in general. Mr. Satterstrom noted the Staff Report depicts a very close estimate of the Compre- hensive Plan designations. Commission discussed building heights and relationship of views to other buildings in the vicinity. Mr. Mora suggested this proposal be granted but the 30 -unit proposal to the north could provide the transition in bulk and density. Motion by Mr. Richards and seconded by Mr. Bowen to recommend the City Council authorize a maximum of 60 units on the site; further, that the medium density • transition area be firmly established on the eastern one -half of the property by the construction of duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes, bulk and height diminishing as the east property line is approached. Motion carried with Mr. Sowinski voting N0. Mr. Mora asked if the development could be concentrated on the westerly portion of the site. Mr. Richards noted his intention was to reduce the number on the westerly portion to allow transition toward the east property line. .commendation of Density: 30 Condominiums @ South 152nd (Mora) Mr. Satterstrom read the Staff Report and explained drawings of the proposed development. Motion by Mr. Richards, seconded by Mr. Sowinski and carried to recommend the City Council authorize a maximum of 20 units on the site and that the maximum Planning Commission Minutes Page 6 26 January 1978 number of units in any single structure be limited to four, with duplex or triplex development on the eastern portion of the site. Furthermore, it is recommended that any proposed structures be built far enough "down" from the crest of the knoll that they be mostly concealed if viewed from the single family residential area to the north. ANY OTHER BUSINESS: FLOW CHART: Zoning Ordinance Revision Mr. Satterstrom explained the proposed flow chart and asked for Commission's response. Chairman Kirsop stated it would be best to work with entire Commission rather than committees and to review draft in phases in lieu of waiting 2 - 3 months for staff preparation. Commission generally agreed to review the revised ordinance in phases by special • meetings of the Commission as a whole.

TUKWILA PLANN.ING; COMMISSION Uwkl Eileen Avery Secretary Minute prepared by: Gar Crutchf i el d Assistant Planner CITY OF TUKWILA PLANNING DIVISION PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT 26 January 1978 8 :00 P.M. AGENDA ITEM VIII B: Recommendation of Density: 30 Condominiums @ S. 152nd (Mora) S & M Investments (E. Mora, applicant) applied for a building permit on 30 November 1977 to construct a 30 -unit condominium. It was determined by the Planning Division that the proposed condominium building required a waiver from Ordinance #1035, Sec- tion 3.1 and 3.2. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map designates the subject site for low- density and medium - density residential use. The attached Site map, Exhibit B, shows the generalized boundaries of the low and medium - density areas as they cross the sub- ject property. Because the proposed project represents a totally high- density residential action, the project requires a waiver from Section 3.1 of Ordinance #1035. In addition, the subject property generally falls within an area designated on the Environmental Basemap as an area of high natural amenity (wooded area). Hence, the proposal requires waiver from Section 3.2 of Ordinance #1035. On 27 December 1977, the City Council referred this matter to the Planning Commis- sion for a "density recommendation ". FINDINGS: 1. The subject property is located on Block 38 of Brookvale Garden Tracts, (SEE, Exhibit A). This property is also known as the Graydon Smith property and is located at the end of South 152nd Street just east of the Hampton Heights Apartments. 2. The size of the subject site is approximately 2 acres. 3. According to drawings submitted with the waiver application, South 152nd Street is proposed to be extended through the property with a cul -de -sac turnaround. 4. An L.I.D. has been formed for the improvement of South 152nd Street but legal problems have delayed the actual improvement of the street. 5. Presently, South 152nd Street is unimproved with a substandard right -of -way width. 6. Zoning on the subject property is R -4, Low Apartments. 7. Thirty (30) condominium units are proposed in a single, 3 -story structure to be situated as shown in Exhibit B. Forty -five (45) parking stalls are proposed. Planning Commission Page 2 Staff Report 26 January 1978 8. Physiographically, the site is comprised of a knoll (elevation 268') with southward - facing slopes which descend to about elevation 200'. 9. Average slope gradients on the site range from about 19 percent to 37 percent. 10. Geologically, the site is underlain by bedrock, probably basalt. This type of rock is stable in steep cuts. Overlying the basalt is a thin layer of glacial till soil which supports the'vegetative growth on the site. 11. The site is lightly forested. Species include cedar, fir, hemlock, and maple. 12. A pond is located at the southwest corner of the property. It is proposed to be retained by the developer. 13. The proposed 30 -unit condominium development was interpreted by the Planning Division staff to be within the scope of the 1974 environmental assessment for Hampton Heights for which a negative declaration was issued by the City. Therefore, the proposed development was ruled exempt from further SEPA review, (SEE, Exhibit C). 14. According to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan map, approximately one -half (1 acre) of the site is designated medium - density residential, and one -half is designated low- density residential. 15. Medium - density residential al -ows up to a maximum of 16 units per acre in duplexes, tri- plexes, and four - plexes. Low - density residential allows up to a maximum of 5 units per acre in single - family dwellings. 16. The subject property lies along the south crest of the Tukwila Hill and, as such, is located in a transition zone between the apartments on the south • slope and the single - family area on the plateau. 17. Pertinent policies in the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan are as follows: NATURAL ENVIRONMENT ELEMENT Objective 3, Policy 1 Objective 3, Policy 3 Objective 4, Policy 4 RESIDENCE ELEMENT Objective 1, Policy 1 Objective 2, Policy 1 "Discourage development on slopes in excess of 20 percent." "Preserve and promote the quality of natural landform." "Encourage the retention of marshes and ponds for the retention of storm water runoff." "Utilize natural features, like topography, to separate incompatible land uses from the residential areas." "Provide for medium - density transition areas between high and low density residential areas." Planning Commission Page 3 Staff Report 26 January 1978 Objective 1, Policy 2 "Encourage the development of owner - occupied multiple - family residential units." CONCLUSIONS: 1. The 30 -unit condominium proposal is consistent with the current R -4 zoning of the property. 2. Based on the finding that the property is designatedapproximately one -half medium- and one -half low- density - residential on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map, the following formula for maximum allowable units applies: A. MAXIMUM UNITS B. AREA C. TOTAL UNITS PER DESIGNATION ALLOWED DESIGNATED DESIGNATION (Ax B = C) Medium - density 16 1 acre 16 Low - density 5 1 acre 5 Total Units Allowed per Comp Plan Map 21 3. Because the north and east ends of the site are desginated low density resi- dential (single-family), it is important that the density of units and the size of structures be specifically limited in these areas. 4. By virtue of the site's location, it is important to create a "transition" here between low and high - density residential districts. 5. Due to the steepness of slope on the property, the placement of multiple -unit structures here will necessarily disrupt the natural landform. 6. The placement of the 30 -unit structure on the northerly portion of the site. (near the low- density area) seems inconsistent with the purpose of the medium - density "transition" area, i.e., to create a buffer between single - family and apartment districts. 7. The physiography of the site affords an opportunity to enhance the establishment of a "transition" area between low and high - density residential areas. This can be accomplished by locating structures further down (or south) from the "crest ". SUMMARY: The proposed number of units (30) does not appear to be consistent with that generally intended by the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map (21). Situated at the crest of the hill between the multiple - family and single - family districts, it is important that a transition in density and bulk be established in order to protect existing residential development and the future integrity of that area planned for single - family use. At the same time, development on the site should be situated so as to take advantage of the "buffer" opportunity of the knoll. Planning Commission Staff Report Page 4 26 January 1978 RECOMMENDATION:, Generally, the overall proposal does not seem to be consistent with the policies of the Plan or the general density guidelines of. the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map. Based on the findings and conclusions of this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council that a maximum of 21 units be allowed on the site. It is also recommended that the maximum number of units in any single structure be limited to four, with duplex or triplex development on the eastern portion of the site. Furthermore, it is recommended that any pro- posed structures be built far enough "down" from the crest of the knoll that they be mostly concealed if viewed from the single - family residential area to the north. j�1'l /� � i- • 09174' i1.LY7/ .9' lV j. - �._ _�. fe 't .Ce :SSA C£ v' i IM)lfil t.' = N' A 1 S ;: ' 1 • r n 2 J 5 m th 2 ft Q it W IU Q N W N W C7 _Z iE W W 0 2 W PUBLIC(- ..;NORK8 0IEPARTMElk ....,� 8230 6outho.ntor Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 96067 telephone C208 3 242-2177 23 January 1978 To: Fred Satterstrom, Planning Supervisor /Associate Planner From: Dick Williams, Acting Public Works Director Subject: LID 28 A recent discussion with Mr. Larry Hard, Deputy City Attorney, indicates that this project is still in litigation and Mr. Hard seems to think that a ruling on the appeal by the City will come within the next couple of months. After the ruling on the appeal, providing it is favorable to the City, I would guess that about six months would be required to acquire the needed right -of -way. I would suggest that you contact Larry to confirm these time frames. Regarding additional development east of Smith's apartments, I feel that any additional traffic on this roadway will compound the problems that exist already and should be delayed until the road is improved.

CITY of T UKVIIBL A CFFICE of COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 14 December. 1977 TO: Kje oknes, Responsible Official FROM: Fr . Satterstrom, Associate Planner SUBJECT: En ronmental Review: Proposed Condominiums (S M Investments) As you know, S & M Investments are currently proposing 120 condominium units (90 and 30 units) on the Graydon Smith property, specifically Tracts 37 & 38, Brookvale garden Tracts. The total size of the subject site is about five (5) acres. Pursuant to your suggestion, S & M Investments has broken its proposal into two parts: 1) a 90 -unit proposal on the south three acres, and 2) a 30 -unit complex on the north two acres. They have applied for building permits for both' proposals. An investigation of the record shows that Graydon Smith completed an environmental review, pursuant to SEPA in 1974, and obtained a declaration of nonsignificance from the City. The contemplated development was for approximately 200 multiple - family units on the total 10 acres. Site plans included in the file (EPIC- ND -13) indicate that apartment development was proposed on the knoll portion of the lot as well. Graydon Smith has since developed 112 units on approximately one -half of the property. Now, S & M Investments proposes to construct an additional 120 units, which would bring the total number of units on the 10 -acre parcel to 232. This number does not substantially differ from that originally proposed in Mr. Smith's initial application. I would ask that you concur with my interpretation that the development anticipated in the City's environmental review of 1974 is substantially the same as that which is now pro- posed, and that no further environmental review is required based on the City's issuance of a declaration of nonsignifi- cance in February 1974.

Crawley Fire Chief Kjell Stoknes, Director Office of Community Development City of Tukwila Dear Kjell: Januarye•:3:;;7,:197.8 - -. O.C.D. C•; i i OF i ��'.;' IL 'JAN 3 1978 In regard to the proposed development by Mr.Mora concerning condominiums in the vicinity of 152nd. St. and 57th. Avenue South, the Planning Commission and Building Department should not allow any further building permits to be issued until at least a second means of egress is furnished to that location. At the present time we have approximately one third of the entire population of the City living up a dead end street which could be totally closed off by heavy frost. This not only endangers safety and welfare of these people who live in this vicinity, but also any people who deliver any type of supplies emergency or otherwise to that area. The problem has been further compounded by two apartment complexes being built on both sides of South 152nd Street and Macadam Road. As mentioned before, I have requested that parking require- ments be upgraded and so far no action has been taken to do this. I feel that parking that has been set aside in both these apartment complexes is totally inadequate for todays modern family with at least two cars, boat trailers, recreation vehicles, etc. This will mean that from past experience, people from these complexes will be parking on the right of way of South 152nd Street. I still have failed to see where the OCD has acted on the parking requirement within the City which helps this. It does not take somebody educated in methods of planning to see that the parking requirements applied to apartment buildings and independent complexes within the City of Tukwila is totally inadequate and unequally distributed. Again I would like to see that no further development be allowed in the vicinity of Hampton Heights, Tukwilas and the LaVista Apartments until at least a second means of egress from the areas has been provided. HHC:vma cc:TFD, Al Pieper Mayor Bau City of Tukwila Yours very truly, Hubert H. Crawley Fire Chief h Fire Department, 444 Andover Park East, Tukwila, Washington 98188 (206) 575 -4404 CITY COUNCIL CITY OF TUKWILA PLANNING DIVISION BRIEF ACTION: WAIVER from Ordinance 1035 (Section 3.1 and 3.2) DATE: 27 December 1977 APPLICANT: Enrique Mora (S & M Investments) PROPOSAL: 30 -Unit Condominium LOCATION: Tract 38, Brookvale Garden Tracts (Graydon Smith property) SIZE: Approximately 2.0 acres ZONING: R -4 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Low - density and Medium - density Residential SUMMARY: The proposed project is the construction of a 30 -unit condominium on that portion of Tract 38,Brookvale Garden Tracts located north of the extension of South 152nd Street. This property is part of what is commonly referred to as the "Graydon Smith" property and is located east of the Hampton Heights Apartments. Current zoning on the property is R -4. REASON FOR WAIVER: The Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map designates the subject property for low- density and medium - density residential use, (SEE, Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map). The attached site map, Exhibit B, shows the generalized boundaries of the low and medium - density areas as they cross the subject property. Because the proposed project represents a totally high- density residential action, the project requires a waiver from Section 3.1 of Ordinance 1035. In addition, the subject property also generally falls within an area designated on the Environmental Basemap as an area of high natural amenity (wooded areas). Thus, the proposed project requires a waiver from Section 3.2 of Ordinance 1035. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council has several alternative courses of action available to it in this case: 1. The City Council may analyze the waiver application at this time using the five review criteria outlined in Ordinance 1035 and either grant, deny, or condition the waiver application. E. Mora (Condominiur:s, — 30 and 90 units) Waiver Applications /Ordinance 1035 Chronology of Events: 22 November 1977 Waiver applications submitted to PD for one 30- unit and one 90 -unit condominium complex. 23 November 1977 Planning Division notified applicant that waiver applications were not complete. Needed separate drawings for each waiver request. SEPA to be applicable on only 30 -unit proposal. Notified applicant that no building permit had been applied for on either project. 30 November 1977 Applicant resubmitted waiver applications (unsigned) as well as environmental questionnaire for 30 -unit project. Applied for building permits on this day. 1 December 1977 Acknowledgment sent from PD to applicant stating the understanding between City and applicant that two waivers be processed together. 6 December 1977 Letter from PD to applicant informing him that wai- vers were not signed and to drop by to sign them. 8 December 1977. Applicant dropped by with signed, original applica- tions. Waiver application considered complete on this day. 14 December 1977 Memo from Fred to Kjell asking for concurrence on exemption of total project from SEPA due to 1974 negative declaration. Kjell concurred. 16 December 1977 Applicant notified of SEPA exemption, and that waivers would be tentatively placed on 27 December 1977 Council agenda. 21 December 1977 Staff Brief forwarded to City Clerk's office for placement on 27 December 1977 agenda of Committee- of- the - Whole. City Council Brief Page 2 21 December 1977 2. The City Council may refer the matter to the Planning Commission for a density determination, as in the case of the Schneider apartment appli- cation. 3.

Legal Description of Property Affected: (see attached) General Location of Property: S. 152nd. Street, approx. 1000 ft. east of Macadam Road. 1. State specifically the action in Ordinance No. 1035 to which you are request- ing a waiver: Section 3 (1) 2. Briefly and generally describe the•action you are proposing, including demen- sional information about the development: To build one building with a total of 30 units and a swimming pool. Site presently zoned R -4 approx. 79 units. 3. Does your proposal represent a unique condition which is insignificant in scale? If so, please explain: The proposed building blends in with the surrounding apartment developments. • < 4. Are other reasonab tevelopment alternatives avail ;..which would not require a waiver? If so, what arc these alternatives? None. Land valruzA are too expensive to make alternatives feacih1P 5. If the request for waiver involves building, grading, clearing, excavation, or filling in a geographical area generally identified by the Environmental Base- . map as an area of high natural amenity or development constraint, what mitigat- ing measures are provided? There is an existing muddy, wet area which we intend to develop into a scenic pond to be created and designed by our landscape architect ppr Planning Dept_ approval. 6. What goals and policies can you identify which would support your request for waiver, if any? The land is presently zoned R4 (1000 sq. feet per family) which will allow for 79 units. We are proposing only 30 units. 7. In your opinion, do the requirements of Ordinance #1035 impose a special hard- ship to a site which a waiver of the provisions would not necessitate a major policy commitment prior to the adoption of the Zoning Ordinance and Map? Yes. We feel that the proposed .project .would .not . differ . substantially from the compr.ehensive...plans and is much less than the underlying present zoning.

Dear Mr. Mora: This is to inform you that your proposal to build 120 condominium units on the abovedescribed property has already complied with SEPA by virtue of a 1974 environmental assessment (File No. EPIC- ND -13). This assessment was completed by Graydon Smith for a proposal of approximately 200 multiple- family units on the 10 -acre subject property. A declaration of nonsignificance was issued by the City in February, 1974. Your proposal to construct 120^on the east five acres of the site, com- bined with the existing 112 units on the west five acres equals a total of 232 units on the entire parcel. This'total number of units was inter- preted to be substantially within the scope of the original environmental assessment, and therefore, no further environmental review is necessary. Hence, I am returning your environmental questionnaire on the proposed 30 -unit complex, as well as the $50 fee for same. In addition, I am tentatively placing your waiver applications, from Ordinance #1035 on the City Council's 27 December 1977 Committee -of- the -Whole agenda.

Satterstrom, Associate Planner SUBJECT: En ronmental Review: Proposed Condominiums (S M Investments) As you know, S & M Investments are currently proposing 120 condominium units (90 and 30 units) on the Graydon Smith property, specifically Tracts 37 & 38, Brookvale garden Tracts. The total size of the subject site is about five (5) acres. Pursuant to your suggestion, S & M Investments has broken its proposal into two parts: 1) a 90 -unit proposal on the south three acres, and 2) a 30 -unit complex on the north two acres. They have applied for building permits for both proposals. An investigation of the record shows that Graydon Smith completed an environmental review, pursuant to SEPA in 1974, and obtained a declaration of nonsignificance from the City. The contemplated development was for approximately 200 multiple - family units on the total 10 acres. Site plans included in the file (EPIC- ND -13) indicate that apartment development was proposed on the knoll portion of the lot as well. Graydon Smith has since developed 112 units on approximately one -half of the property. Now, S & M Investments proposes to construct an additional 120 units, which would bring the total number of units on the 10 -acre parcel to 232. This number does not substantially differ from that originally proposed in Mr. Smith's initial application. I would ask that you concur with my interpretation that the development anticipated in the City's environmental review of 1974 is substantially the same as that which is now pro- posed, and that no further environmental review is required based on the City's issuance of a declaration of nonsignifi- cance in February 1974.

In reviewing your waiver applications for a 30 -unit apartment complex and a 90 -unit apartment complex located here in Tukwila, I find that all waiver applications and the environmental questionnaire are not signed. In addi- tion, a portion of each waiver application is not filled out. The waiver applications and environmental questionnaire must be signed in order to be considered for filing. All waiver application questions must be answered as well. Please drop by this office at your earliest convenience to take care of this matter. ectfull ed .t erstrom tanning Supervisor FNS /ch 6230 Southcenter Boulevard a Tukwila, Washington 98188 n (206) 242 -2177 LAIIt1I fI6 FARKS rncFa,, Iou BUILDING CITY of 'TUKWILA OFFICE of COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 1 December 1977 Enrique P.

Pacific Highway South Seattle, Washington 98188 Dear Mr. Mora: This office is in receipt of your applications for building permit for the two apartment complexes located on portions of blocks 37 and 38, Brookvale Garden Tracts. Both require waivers from Ordinance 1035. As you know from our conversations, the 30 -unit complex must undergo SEPA review. This office already has your environmental checklist and fee on file and we will begin to process it immediately. From our conversation of 30 November 1977,.I understand that if the SEPA review on the 30 -unit proposal should prevent this waiver from being placed on the Council's 12 December 1977 agenda, that you desire the 90 -unit pro- posal to be delayed as well in order that both waivers will be considered at.the same time. If you feel otherwise, please notify this office as soon as possible. ectful admAA red' N.e`Satterstrom Planning Supervisor FNS /ch 6230 Southcenter Boulevard n Tukwila, Washington 98188 n (206) 242 -2177 S & M I N V E S T M E N T S 19800 Pacific Highway S.

I will be applying for the building permits today. You have now the waiver application, the EIA and the required SEPA.

SMITH PROPERTY) Dear Mr. Mora: With regard to your intentions to file for waiver from Ordinance 1035 on the abovementioned property, I submit the following for your information: 1. In order to consider the 90 -unit and 30 -unit apartment com- plexes as separate, this office requires separate waiver applications. 2. In addition, in order to consider the two proposals as separate, this office requires that the drawings submitted for each waiver request not show the property or buildings proposed under the other waiver request. (That is, the drawings submitted for the 90 -unit apartment complex should not depict the land or the buildings being proposed for the 30 -unit complex, and vice versa.) 3. If the above is complied with, no environmental review would be required for the 90 -unit complex. SEPA compliance, however, would apply to the 30 -unit request and an environmental check- list would be required. 4. All original drawings submitted for the waiver requests should be accompanied by a 81/2" x 11" or 81/2" x 14" reduction for inclu- sion in the staff report to the City Council. 5. Bear in mind that the waiver application for the 30 -unit propo- sal on the northern half of the property cannot be forwarded to the City Council until the application is complete, (SEE, Section 4 of Ordinance 1035). To be considered complete, SEPA review must be completed. Therefore, either a negative declaration or a draft EIS must be available in order to forward this waiver request to the City Council. 6230 Southcenter Boulevard in Tukwila, Washington 98188 in (206) 242 -2177 Enrique Mora S $ M Investments Page 2 •;,,vomber 1977 This office presently has on file your waiver application for. the 90 -unit condominium on the south lot of the subject property. However, after checking with the Building Division, we have no application for building permit. Therefore, we will hold this waiver application in abeyance until a building permit applica- tion has been made. We also have your waiver application and environmental questionnaire for the 30 -unit condouminium on the north lot. This application is not considered complete because no building permit has been applied for and, hence, environmental review has not been completed. We will hold this waiver application in abeyance until abuilding per- mit is applied for. This letter is sent to you as clarification of the status of the two waiver requests which we have discussed verbally. Please let me know what your intentions are regarding the above matters.
