II. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
1. Earth
b) The existing soil will have to be filled and recompacted
to support the restaurant and adjacent parking as required
by the soils engineer in the state of Washington.
c) The natural relief of the existing topography will be
modified to insure adequate drainage from the proposed
building. Additional, there will be a small cut into the
existing embankment along with the removal of limited species
of trees. The reason for the cut into the embankment is to
provide parking as required by the city.
2. Air
c) There will probably be no change or alteration of any
air movements at the proposed site due to any climatic
variances.
3. Water
b) Absorption rates may change due to the increase in hard -
scape (A.C. paving and building). Therefore, surface runoff
water will be directed to catch basins and storm drains.
4. Flora
a & c) Some trees will need to be removed due to the layout
of the site. However, site will be relandscaped in compliance
with local standards.
6. Noise
Possibly the only increase in the level of noise will occur
from traffic on the site, otherwise the proposed restaurant
will not produce any discernible levels of noise.
7. Light & Glare
There will be no glare from any new lights. Additionally,
lighting from the interior of the building will be at a
minimum, since 'the exterior glass is solar bronze.. As for
the parking lot, light standards will be kept to a minimum
for adequate security purposes.
8. Land Use
Only from the standpoint of rezoning from a residential to a
commercial zone only.
9. Natural Resources
a) There will be a minimal useage of natural resources -
water, gas, etc., as the building has been designed with a
"energy- efficient" monitoring system.to reduce consumption.
• •
13. Transportation /Circulation
a) Additional vehicular movement will occur due to clients
and or customers visiting the restaurant to be accommodated
for dining privileges.
b) New parking facilities will be provided on site to
accommodate customers.
c) The only alterations to present patterns of circulation
would possibly be a slight increase in vehicular movement.
However, since South Center Parkway is a major traffic route,
circulation will not be impaired. (Traffic study is currently
being prepared).
18. Aesthetics
Unfortunately, the explanation and answer to this question
is very subjective.From an architect's standpoint, the
restaurant will certainly be aesthetically appealing from
any visual standpoint. However, the reconstruction of the
existing contours for this proposed development may be con-
strued as objectionable and or offensive, depending upon
one's viewpoint and opinion. Secondly, the placement of the
proposed restaurant on the site may be interpreted (depending
on individual analysis) as obstructing the view to the hill
and fauna in the background.
It is one of the major concerns of architects to design a
building that will create a positive reaction from the public
standpoint. Respectfully, the Coco's &Baxter's Restaurant
will enhance this area dramatically.
