Box 868 Bellevue, Washington 98009 Dear Mr. Wood: The Tukwila Planning Commission, at it's regular meeting held 28 March 1974, considered your request for a variance from Chapter 13.08 of the Tukwila Municipal Code for the realignment and stabilization of a portion of the 115 KV overhead transmission linos located along West Valley Highway and south of 180th Street. Whereas the Planning Commission finds that the proposed . realignment is necessary in conjunction with the required widening of the West Valley Highway in that particular area; therefore a variance from Chapter 13.08 of the Tukwila Municipal Code is herein granted for the con- struction indicated within the plans submitted to the Planning Commission. Should you have any questions or desire further information regarding this matter, please contact this office at 242 -2177. GC /lt CITY of TUKWILA 6230 SOUTHCENTER BLVD. TUKWILA, WASHINGTON 98067 cc: Mayor Todd Pub Wks Dir Ping Dir Frank Todd, Mayor PLANNING DEPARTMENT Sincerely, Gary Crutchfield Planning Technician 8 April 1974 • Minutes, 28 March 1974 Page 3 Mr. John Phillips, Attorney representing Mr. John Strander, owner of the land on the south side of 48th Avenue South, stated his client will dedicate the 10 foot utility easement but that the land needed for the cul -de -sac is owned by three separate owners, including Time -DC, King County and his client. Thus, his client cannot guarantee dedication of enough land for the cul- de -sac. Chairman Mettler closed the Public Hearing at 9:23 p.m. Mr. Zepp stated he felt the variance should be granted for the entire south side of the street. • Mr. Lamb pointed out that it was not legally possible to grant a variance for an area in excess of that which was published; however agreed that a variance should be granted since you can't unscramble eggs. Further suggested dedication of ten foot utility easement as a condition of the variance. Mr. Sneva pointed out the possible use of 48th Avenue by Time -DC trucks. Felt strongly that the street should be 48 feet of pavement instead of the existing 26 feet. Motion by Mr. Lamb and seconded by Mr. West to grant the variance to Hertz from Section 17.08.010 on the condition that a ten foot utility easement be dedicated to the City for installation of utilities. Mr. Kirsop questioned the possibility of also requiring a cul -de -sac and wider paving. Mr. Lamb called for the question. Roll call vote: YES - -Mr. Zepp, Mr. Lamb, Mr. West. NO - -Mr. Sneva, Mr. Link and Mr. Kirsop. Chairman Mettler cast tie - breaking vote in favor of granting the variance and the motion • CARRIED. It was suggested by .the Commission that Mr. Strander apply for a variance on the entire side of the street. C. Public Hearing - Variance - Puget Power Mr. Crutchfield read Staff report explaining that the widening of West Valley Highway in the vicinity of the Southcenter South Project will necessitate the realignment, by Puget Power, of some of the overhead electric trans- mission lines along the east side of West Valley Highway. However, the guy wire and stake used to stabilize one ' Minutes, 28 March 1974 Page 4 of the poles will cross the highway and be located within the west side of the right -of -way of the highway. Thus, the need for a variance. Chairman Mettler opened the Public Hearing at 10:15 p.m. Mr. Phil Wood, Puget Power, reiterated Mr. Crutchfield's statements. Chairman Mettler closed the Public Hearing at 10:20 p.m. Motion by Mr. Zepp, seconded by Mr. Lamb and carried to grant the variance from Title 13 as requested. D.

Site Plan Review - M -3 Property (Cabot, Cabot & Forbes) Mr. Crutchfield displayed plan noting the Public Works Director has indicated the southerly driveway is unacceptable due to the curve and related sight distance. The Planning Staff further questioned the parking arrangement and width of stalls. Mr. Jim King, Aberthaw Construction Company, indicated that approval is needed for the location of buildings at this time and that the problems mentioned could be worked out at a later date. Motion by Mr. Sneva, seconded by Mr. Link and carried to approve the location of buildings as shown on the plan. Motion by Mr. Lamb, seconded by Mr. West and carried to adjourn the regular meeting.

Herbe Lamb, Sedr-etary 7 Tukwila Planning Commission Staff Report, 28 March 1974 Page 2 in the vicinity of the Southcenter South project. This plan is proposed as an amendment to the City's Comprehensive Street and Utilities Plan as that plan does not presently indicate any facilities in that area. Public Hearing - Variance - Hertz Corporation The Hertz Corporation has proposed to develop a truck rental facility along 48th Avenue South directly across from Time -DC truck terminal office. However, 48th Avenue South is a 50 -foot right -of -way. Chapter 17.08.010 of the Tukwila Municipal Code, adopted in 1965, requires that streets serving commercial or industrial areas have a right -of -way width of at least 60 -feet. Hertz has now requested a variance from that requirement. Historically, the improvement of 48th Avenue South was initiated on September 2nd, 1969 when the City Council, in response to a request by the property owners involved, passed a motion that the City of Tukwila enter into an agreement with the property owners for a 50 -foot street in line with presentations by Hill, Ingman, & Chase, the City Engineers, and at the same time granting a 10 -foot variance from the minimum 60 -foot standard. However, Ordinance No. 293 of the City of Tukwila requires that variance applications be submitted or referred to the Planning Commission. In 'light of these facts, the City Attorney has directed this Department to require a variance from the minimum right -of -way requirement. Public Hearing - Variance - Puget Power The proposed Southcenter South project, located south of 180th Street and west of the West Valley Highway, includes some widening of the existing highway to allow left -turn channelization. As a result of this widening, it is necessary for Puget Power to realign the existing overhead electrical transmission facilities. In doing so, guy wires and stakes must be utilized to stabilize the facilities. Section 13.08.040 subparagraph (2) excludes, from the utility undergrounding requirements of the Tukwila Municipal Code, those electric transmission systems of a voltage of 110 KV or more where such facilities are not located within the right -of -way of publicly dedicated streets. While this particular facility is 115 KV, the guy wires proposed to stabilize the facilities will be located within the right -of -way of the West Valley Highway, thereby requiring a variance from Chapter 13.08. c 1. Staff Report, 14 March 1974 Page 2 by the City Council for a Public Hearing and formal recommendation. That Public Hearing is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. Thursday, 21 March 1974. C. Public Hearing - Variance - Hertz The Hertz Company desires to construct a truck rental facility along 48th Avenue South under the zoning of M -l.. Section 17.08.010 of the Tukwila Municipal Code requires that right -of -ways serving industrial or commercial areas be a minimum of 60 feet. 48th Avenue South was designed, by Hill - Ingman -Chase (City Engineers) as a 50 foot right - of -way and the entire cost borne by L.I.D. Hertz has now requested a variance from that requirement. D. Public Hearing - Variance - Puget Power Puget Power has requested a variance be granted from the underground utility requirements of Title 13 of the Tukwila Municipal Code.

We are submitting the attached "Application for Variance" for the purpose of setting one 30 -foot guy stub pole and installing one anchor and one 3/8 inch anchor guy wire in the public right of way on the west side of West Valley Highway approximately 32 feet west of centerline and approximately 95 feet south of centerline of South 188th Street extended, as shown on worksketch A70902 (3 copies attached).

This relocation, if accomplished, will create an angle in our existing pole line which will necessitate guying facilities to the west side of the right of way to compensate for overhead conductor tensions on the angle.
