FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
File L11 -002 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT /REZONE
REZONE CRITERIA:
1. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is consistent with the goals, objectives
and policies of the Comprehensive Plan
Per the discussion of Comprehensive Plan Criteria (above), redeveloping and reinvigorating the
industrial uses along E. Marginal Way is one of Tukwila's key priorities, as is the continued
enhancement of the community's economic well- being. The proposed rezone request from
MIC /H to LI allows a broad range of uses, including light industrial and commercial, to support a
varied and healthy economy for Tukwila. It is consistent with this priority and accompanying
goals and policies.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of this title and the description and purpose of the zone classification
applied for.
Per TMC 18.32.0 10 Purpose, the Light Industrial District is "...intended to provide areas
characterized by distributive and light manufacturing uses, with supportive commercial and
office uses.
The proposed rezone from Manufacturing Industrial Center -Light (MIC /L) to Light Industrial
(LI) would fulfill this purpose by retaining the potential for distributive and light manufacturing
uses, while allowing a range of commercial and office uses to be built. The LI zone designation
is also most consistent with Seattle's Industrial Commercial (IC) zoning on adjacent property.
Consistency between Tukwila and Seattle zoning will facilitate future development.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to warrant
the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map
Since 2007, approximately 62 acres immediately adjacent to the subject property, including
32 acres in Tukwila, was rezoned from Manufacturing Industrial Center /Heavy (MIC /H) to Light
Industrial (LI) to accommodate planned future mixed -use commercial redevelopment.
As discussed, the applicant had wanted to include the subject property in the original 2007
rezone, but did not own the parcel at that time. Having purchased the property, the applicant is
proceeding with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning map changes so that the entire project has
the same zoning. This will enable the owner to prepare for eventual large scale development that
includes the subject property.
By approving the 2007 rezone, the City Council indicated that the LI designation was
appropriate for the general location.

4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest of furtherance
of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare, and will not
adversely affect the surrounding neighborhoods, nor be injurious to other
properties in the vicinity in which the subject property is located
The rezone should balance between industrial and commercial land use and zoning without
jeopardizing current and future development in the Manufacturing /Industrial Center or the
Tukwila Urban Center. The rezone to LI allows a somewhat broader range of uses than the
existing MIC /H. Future redevelopment can contribute to the vitality of the community through
increased opportunities for employment, recreation, and shopping, and increased revenue to the
City of Tukwila.
The rezone makes it easier for the property to be included in a future large scale redevelopment
project. As part of a larger project, it would be likely to have additional review and public input.
Future site development applications for SEPA and Design Review will address specific impacts
such as traffic, airport (KCIA and FAA) requirements, and impacts on abutting property.
CONCLUSIONS
1) Consistencv with Comprehensive Plan:
The rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan policies to support industrial
redevelopment and ensure economic vitality.
2) Consistencv with Zone:
The Light Industrial retains potential for light industrial use, allows a range of
commercial and office activity. It is compatible with zoning for the remainder of the
proposed redevelopment area, and is compatible with adjacent Seattle zoning.
3) Changed conditions:
Changed conditions including the 2007 rezone of 32 acres in Tukwila to Light
Industrial (LI) and the 2009 rezone of 30 acres in Seattle to IG, and the purchase of
the property by the Sabey Company for inclusion with the large -scale future
redevelopment with the warrant a rezone from Manufacturing /Industrial Center
Heavy (MIC -H) to Light Industrial (LI).
4) Benefit to communitv:
The LI zoning has many features of the MIC/H zone, but allows a broader range of
uses, and increases the likelihood that the property will be part of a larger
redevelopment project anticipated for the adjoining Unified Grocers properties.
rezone shall take into account the requirements of developing property adjacent to
King County International Airport, including building height, noise impacts and
landscaping.
