TUKWILA CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING May 16, 1988 Page 2 PUBLIC HEARINGS Contd. Pre annexation Zoning Comprehensive Plan Amendments for .72 ac. of land located at 13530 53rd Ave. S. from Single family res- iddntial to commercial (1st Public Hearing) Amendments to Comprehen- sive Land Use Plan Zoning Maps for F. D. #1 annexation area to the City's Zoning Code. cosy Jack Pace, Senior Planner, identified the area as approximately .72 acres of land located at 13530 53rd Avenue South, Tukwila. Mayor Van Dusen opened the Public Hearing. Cris Crumbaugh, attorney for the applicant, discussed the appearanc( of fairness, stating the mayor is his client on a corporate matter. Mayor Van Dusen asked the audience if anyone had any objections or felt the appearance of fairness had been violated. There were no objections. The matter was discussed with the City Attorney and the opinion was expressed there was no conflict; further study brought forth the possibility of a conflict due to the fact that the area involves a single property owner rather than a large area involving many property owners. Council President Harris stated she did not discuss it except as it related to being an agenda meeting item. Since there were no objections Mr. Crumbaugh stated the owners have requested the Comprehensive Plan map changes from Low Density Residential to Commercial, and pre- annexation zone designation of Regional Retail Business (C -2). This area is not appropriate for residential due to the Park and Ride lot nearby. Mayor Van Dusen stated this is one of two hearings. The second hearing will be held in 30 days on June 20, 1988. There being no further comments Mayor Van Dusen closed the Public Hearing. Moira Bradshaw, Associate Planner, addressed the issue for the Planning Department, going over the previous discussion material. The potential M -3 zone would remain; with regard to mobile manufactured homes the proposal as originally recommended was that individual lots that have mobile or manufactured home at the time of annexation the code will be changed so they can upgrade or replace with ones that meet the HUD code. The Rainier bank is half in Fire District #1 and half in the Riverton annexation area. Under King County code they can go up to 45' and up additional footage for each foot of setback. Under Tukwila code they can go to 45'. Rainier Bank would like to have the ability to exceed the 45'. The Planning Commission recommended height exception of up to 65' with ability to go up to 115' with BAR approval. In sub -area 4 there was only one owner who felt R -1 was not suitable. The houses back up to the railroad yard. A member of the Task Force went there about the proposed change but the people did not object. Mayor Van Dusen opened the Public Hearing. Robert Mackin, 1301 Aetna Plaza, Seattle, attorney for Scott Traverso and Six Robblees, Inc., stated his concern was the adverse impacts the landscaping requirement of the M -2 zone would have on businesses presently operating in the area. A reduction to 5' would make it comparable to what they would get in King County. There would be a problem to expand and meet the 15' requirement. King County is planning to extend the road. This would make it difficult to enter and exit, park or unload. Councilmember Moriwaki said the 15' landscaping requirement is 15' beyond the sidewalk. Mr. Mackin stated sidewalks are included in the plans on the east side. Sidewalks would not be included in the 15' or if reduced to 5'. Ross Earnst, City Engineer, stated the sidewalk is on the right -of -way. Setbacks are from the right -of -way. Council President Harris said this would be three lanes on the west side and two plus sidewalks on the east side of the planned street.

Minutes of Regular Mtg. of April 18, 1988 PUBLIC HEARINGS Contd. o cis Ross Earnst, City Engineer, stated the bridge is being replaced now. The bridge is wider than the street so the street will have to be widened. Councilmember Robertson stated Mr. Mackin then would like the 15' landscaping requirement reduced to 5' because the buildings are in the way and the room is needed to get trucks in and out and maneuver the trucks and trailers. He asked if others had asked to have the landscaping reduced. Moira Bradshaw, Associate Planner, stated one request was made in the area heavily populated with truck traffic. The proposed M2 -L which would permit flexible landscaping was explained. Councilmember Moriwaki stated it has been said that the lines would not cut into any buildings. The drawings show 5' clipped off a warehouse. Attorney Mackin said this is not accurate and explained the drawings. George Crestwich, 1221 2nd Avenue, Seattle, stated Stoneway Concrete is in sub -area 3 and the Black River Quarry. They want to continue and consolidate office and long -term planning. They have just learned about the annexation. They would like to maintain as is. This property, sub -area 3 and Black River Quarry, has been designated heavy industrial and is not consistent with what it is now. It is understood the City Council has considered changing it from heavy industrial to light industrial or light manufacturing. They would challenge that. It is heavy manufacturing. They would like it to be consistent. They would like the City to make it heavy industrial. James Hawk, Kent, stated the quarry has been in operation for a long time. There is a lot of truck traffic. Councilmember Moriwaki stated the Renton City Council has indicated they do not believe heavy industrial would be appropriate for that area. Mr. James Hawk said they would like to remain in the County. Council President Harris stated the Black River Quarry is the site the County has in mind for a burning site. Mr. Hawk said they have heard that and they would not like to see it happen. The County can condemn the property and buy it, they have that power. John Richards, 1532 64th Avenue, representing Rainier National Bank, stated the property owned by the bank is cut in half by the proposed annexation. The City would like to match the zoning of King County. The other property is zoned M -2. The bank property is designated M -1. There being no further commented, Mayor Van Dusen closed the Public Hearing.

Councilmember Moriwaki stated that the Planning Department has indicated if the City carries out this annexation of Mr. Looney's property it may delay the Riverton annexation. The BRB will not want to look at two annexations. He stated it was his belief that it would not jeopardize the annexation because it will be part of the annexation. We will want to set some standards on this property. We should annex him. Ross Earnst, City Engineer, explained the City can prevent him from adding additional houses to that property. He has petitioned for annexation. He stated he did not know if he had asked for pre- annexation zoning. If so, there would have to be two hearings 30 days apart.
