The City of Tukwila Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendments to the Zoning Code on April 20,1995. 2. In accordance with RCW 43.21C and WAC 197 -11, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the proposed Comprehensive Plan was prepared and issued on June 27,1995. 3. The draft Comprehensive Plan and Draft EIS were made available to citizens and organizations, and were distributed to local jurisdictions and state agencies for the mandatory review period. 4. After the receipt and review of public comments on the Draft EIS, a Final EIS on the Comprehensive Plan was prepared and circulated on October 9,1995. 5. An Addendum to the Comprehensive Plan EIS was prepared and issued on November 15, 1995. This Addendum addressed the proposed Zoning Code amendments. The Addendum was made available to citizens and organizations, and were distributed to local jurisdictions and state agencies for the mandatory review period. ZONING.DOC 11/22/95 6. The Draft EIS, Final EIS and Addendum adequately describe the potential environmental impacts of the adoption and implementation of the Zoning Code amendments, including alternatives and reasonable mitigation measures. 7. The City Council conducted two public hearings on the proposed Zoning Code amendments on July 31,1995 and September 11,1995. 8. The Zoning Code amendments, once adopted, will accomplish the following objectives: a) Encourage the continued economic vitality of the community; b) Provide for the appropriate location, distribution and physical form of commercial, industrial and residential development. c) Promote the coordinated development of unbuilt areas and to provide for mitigation of impacts due to increased development; d) Sustain established residential neighborhoods; e) Continue to provide the City' s regional fair share of affordable housing, multi family housing, manufactured housing, group homes and foster care facilities; f) Facilitate adequate funding and appropriate timing of water, sewer, transportation, and other public facility improvements needed to serve anticipated development; g) Lessen traffic congestion and improve traffic safety; h) Provide a process for identification and siting of essential public facilities; i) Protect life and property from fire, flooding and land subsidence; and ZONING.DOC 11/22/95 Protect the natural environment, including wetland, hillside, stream and shoreline areas, and fish and wildlife habitat areas, as an essential contributor to the overall welfare of the City's residents. k) Implement the City's plan for redevelopment of certain neighborhoods, as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. j) 9. The Zoning Code amendments change the number and types of zones in the City of Tukwila. As a result, it is necessary to adopt a new Zoning Map to implement these changes in zone designations. In addition, as part of its deliberations on the Comprehensive Plan, the City Council determined that the zoning designations of some properties needed to be changed in order to achieve consistency with the Growth Management Act, the Countywide Planning Policies and the Comprehensive Plan. These changes have been incorporated into the new Zoning Map. 10. The City of Tukwila anticipates that additional changes to the Zoning Code and other adopted City Codes will be made in 1996 to implement the provisions of Chapter 347, Laws of 1995. These changes will be primarily procedural and will further implement the requirements of the Growth Management Act and Comprehensive Plan.
