Mullet, Mayor Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director NOTICE OF DECISION This letter serves as a Notice of Decision and is issued pursuant to Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) 18.401.170. Request for an increase, from 150 sq. ft. to 500 -sq. ft. for King County Museum of Flight located at 9404 East Marginal Way S. This decision is based on the Findings and Conclusions listed below. BACKGROUND File Number: L04-073, SO4-085 Applicant: Craig Parsons on behalf of the Museum of Flight Request: Approval for a Special Permission Sign, increasing the allowable sign area. The maximum allowed sign is proposed to be increased from 150 to 500- sq. ft. Location: 9404 East Marginal Way S Comprehensive Plan Designation: MIC/H Zoning District: MIC/H SEPA: No determination required Staff: Brandon J. Miles, Assistant Planner FINDINGS Vicinity/Site Information The sign being proposed will be located on the southwest wall of 9404 East Marginal Way South directly towards East Marginal Way and Museum of Flight Place. The zoning on the property is MIC/H and surrounding land uses are industrial. The exposed building face (EBF) is 15,200 square feet. With the approval of the Special Permission Application, the wall sign would be 500 square feet (3.2% of EBF) versus the normal maximum of 150 square feet (0.009% of EBF). 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206-431-3670 • Fax: 206-431-3665 Existing Signage The Museum of Flight currently has two small freestanding signs located along East Marginal Way. These signs were permitted under the premise that these would qualify as the Museum's quota for signs, thus they would not be permitted to have additional a signs, either freestanding or wall. The Museum has now proposed to classify these small freestanding signs as internal informational signs. These signs do not meet the area and content restrictions that can be permitted outright for internal informational signs. However, the Planning Commission has the authority to waive certain requirements when a demonstrated need for such signs exists. The Museum will be pursuing obtaining Special Permission from the Planning Commission for the retention of these freestanding signs. Decisional Criteria TMC 19.32.140(A) allows permitted sign area to be increased by 50% for each doubling of the required minimum setback...but in no case shall the sign area exceed that permitted in TMC 19.32.150. Pursuant to TMC 19.32.150, the maximum allowed sign area could be 6% of the exposed building face (EBF) up to maximum of 500 sq. ft. There is no required side setback in the MIC/H. Thus, Museum of Flight would be permitted to have a wall sign equal to 500 square feet of six percent of the wall area, which ever is less. CONCLUSIONS 1. The building is setback a sufficient distance to allow an increase in the wall sign area. 2. The proposed sign area is 500 -sq. ft which is equal to the maximum permitted size for a wall sign. CONDTIONS 1. The Museum of Flight shall seek to have the two freestanding signs located on East Marginal Way classified as internal informational signs by the City's Planning Commission. Application for Special Permission from the Planning Commission shall be submitted within 90 -days from the date of this Notice of Decision. If these freestanding signs cannot be classified as internal informational signs they must be removed. APPEAL PROCESS This decision may be appealed to the Planning Commission within 14 days from the issuance of this Notice of Decision. All appeal material must be submitted to the Department of Community Development. If you wish to appeal this decision, please call the Department of Community Development at 206-431-3670 to obtain a copy of appeal procedures.
