MOTION CARRIED PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. ROBERT LLOYD - REZONE FROM UNCLASSIFIED TO C-3, R-2 & R-2 WITH CUP - APPL. 24-80 00 Mayor Kersey declared the public hearing open on the request of Robert Lloyd to rezone from Unclassified with a Special Property Use Permit to C-3 (Heavy Commercial) and R-2 (Single Family) with a Conditional Use Permit for cluster type housing 0 on a parcel of land approximately 80 acres in size located 1300 feet west of the Q West Valley Highway and south of 15th St. N.W. (Application 24-80) The Planning Q Commission recommends approval of this request with the following conditions pro- vided that No. 3 be changed to read as follows: (1) That the approximately 5.4 acres located in the southwest corner of the site be zoned R-1 for single family detached dwellings. (2) That a 5.5 acre site at the northeast corner of the site be 7oned.C-3 (Commercial), (3) That the balance of the site be zoned R-2 with a Conditional Use Permit for cluster type single family dwellings as shown on the attached overall site plan and that the density not exceed dwelling units per acre or a total of 440 units, (4) That consideration be given to any requirements of the Public Works and Fire Departments. ' Tom Barghausen, Cavness Engineers, representing Mr. Lloyd, gave the history of the 15 years of development of the property. He noted in September, 1980 the Council approved a Master Grading Plan and issued a Grading Permit for five years. He said what was before the Council tonight was the final step in the preliminary development process. This request was originally submitted in August, 1980, and was continued until completion of an Environmental Impact Statement. Barghausen stated the statement had been completed in accordance with City requirements and regulations and under the guidance of the City Planning Department. He pointed out major aspects of the plan using an illustrated site plan. They included a major street connecting the City of Auburn and Federal Way, a comprehensive storm water management system, building pads will be separated both horizontally and vertically from each other and from neighboring property owners, on -site recrea- tional facilities, office/restaurant building also separated from the residential area and other industrial developments in the Valley, total of 67% of site area wouldremain as vegetation and greenbelt area, significant buffer areas against all neighboring residential areas particularly Aaby Addition, the road was in a cut which would prevent any visibility from Ashy Addition and a noise buffer, affordable housing with a particularly good view, good location of development to work centers, shopping area and public services, lower servicing cost due to cluster type housing giving lower cost to public and reduced impact on Auburn public service personnel, and, finally the gravel pit scars would be removed and useable land will be made available to help ease inflationary pressures on land values. He added they concurred with the recommendations of the Planning Department with the exception that they feel the restriction of 6 dwelling units per gross acre should he applied uniformilyto the subject site. He stated that the public hearing on the Environmental Impact Statement brought no adverse comments. He urged the Council to approve the request and to modify the recommendations of the Planning Commission to allow Mr. Lloyd to develop at a density of 6 units per gross acre for the entire site based on 78 acres total area less the 5 acres of commercial or 73 acres net area at R-2 zoning. It was moved by Flechsig, seconded by Hitchcock, to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED -1- 30 LURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY JUNE 1, 1981 Hitchcock asked Barghausen if he was asking for a total of 440 units. Barghausen said what he was having trouble with was recommendation No. 3 which said, "That the balance of the site...". He stated a total of 440 units couldn't be achieved without taking the entire site area less the commercial. Hitchcock asked Mr. Schuler for his comments on this request. Schuler replied their recommendations to the Planning Commission precluded the area in the south- west corner. He said the reason for this was because they felt they wanted more control over the corner which would act as a buffer to the single family residential area next to the development. He stated he felt this could he accomplished by making this an R-1 zoning. Hitchcock asked Barghausen if what he wanted was R-2 in the southwest corner. Barghausen explained the difference in the R-1 and R-2 is in the density of the remaining portion of the site. Larson asked if both Schuler and Barghausen were looking at 440 units. Schuler responded that was what the Planning Commission recommended buthis recommendation was a little less than that because of the R-1 classification recommended for the southwest corner. He said he would have no problems in making it all R-2 and spec- ifying in the Conditional Use Permit that the approximate 5.5 acres in the southwest corner of the site be plotted with lots not less than 8,000 sq. ft. per lot area. Craig asked if the cluster housing would be more like condominiums rather than single family detached housing. Barghausen agreed. Craig said his concern was that while he agreed with the 6 dwellings per acre someone had taken the roadway out in the calculations. He stated he agreed with this because if you didn't exclude some of the area you would be forcing the remaining area to be squeezed together. He thought it should be decided how many units per acre should be nut in the development then exclude some of those areas in figuring, the acreage, such as the commercial area and the area in the southwest corner and even the roadway. He asked Schuler if that was what his recommendation had been. Schuler said yes that was his reasoning. Craig added the reason he felt this way was because of the pecularities of this particular site. Barghausen added to comments saying the reason for this development being proposed in this manner was because of the tremendous off -site costs because of the steep elevation, storm drainage system, roadway, etc. and unless they can have the number of units they're request it becomes an economic consideration. He said the lesser amount of units put in the more the unit cost would become and it would be of major concern to them so they could build affordable housing. Jim Richardson, Cavness Engineers, stated he had prepared the Environmental Impact Statement and said it had been done based on 440 units. He noted if thev made all the exclusions the staff was recommending they still would come out with more than the 6,000 sq. ft. per dwelling that the R-2 zoning requires. lie said it would actually come out to about 7,400. Craig clarified there was no controversy about exclusion of the commercial area. The R-1 area, however, could be R-2 with a restriction to density in this area by a CUP. Barghausen said they were requesting an R-2 with a CUP which would incor- porate the layout in the illustration before the Council. Craig wondered if there would be a formal plat. Barghausen said very likely their would be a need for one to dedicate the public roads and plat lots off and possibly to segregate the rest of the parcel so that portions could be developed individually. He added if their were condominiums the lots were platted many times after the fact. Barghausen said the construction plans, improvement plans and building plans which would have to conform with minor variances to the site plan before the Council. The single family area in the southwest corner would have to be platted and come again before the Council. Craig asked Schuler for further comments on his thoughts. Schuler said in doing some rough calculations he came up with around 400 units if the southwest corner was R-2. It was moved by Hitchcock, seconded by Flechsig, to approve the request of Robert Lloyd to rezone from Unclassified with a SPU to C-3 and R-2 with a CUP for cluster housing, Application 24-80, and to instruct the City Attorney to draw up the necessary ordinance to include the recommendations of the Planning Commission with the modification of Item No. 1 to R-2 zoning with a restriction of one dwelling unit per 8,000 sq. feet, and, further, the Conditional Use Permit to expire at the same time as the Gravel Removal Permit. -2- 307 AUBURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY JUNE 1, 1981 It was moved by Craig, seconded by Roegner, to amend the motion to modify the Planning Commission recommendation No. 3 to read, (3) That the density on R-2 zoning not exceed six dwelling units per acre.

Richard Reich, 39015 172nd Ave. S.E.,attdrneyfor the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, stated they opposed the approval of the plat. He submitted a copy of the Planning Commission meeting minutes of May 5, 1981, of the hearing with a few minor changes in the transcript to reflect more correctly his comments at that time. IIe said his comments remain the same and asked the Council to consider those remarks. Reich said in the Council making its decision tonight it should consider four questions: (1) Does the preliminary plat comply with the requirements of the City's zoning ordinance and Subdivision ordinance, (2) Does the plat and accompanying materials comply with RCW 58.17 the State Subdivision I.aw, (3) Does the plat make appropriate provisions for public health, safety, general welfare including, provisions for open space, drainage ways, streets, alleys and other public ways, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks, playgrounds and school sites, (4) Is public use and interest served by the proposed subdivision. His comments on these questions were: (1) The proposed plat does not comply with the requirements of the City zoning or subdivision ordinance, for example numerous lots do not contain the required minimum 6,000 sq. foot area. He disagreed with Mr. Schuler's com- ments that this and other discrepancies can be worked out at some future date before approval of the final plat. He referred the Council to Loveless va Yantis cited by the Washington Supreme Court in 1973 and quotedmaterial. therein. He added the discrepancies in the preliminary plat should be cleared up now and not left to the City Planning Department as the Council would not have a chance to review what the preliminary plat was. He felt at the time it gets to the final plat stag determining if public use and interest was met was extremely limited, (2) The plat and the accompanying materials do not comply with RC117 58.17.120 or 58.17.150. RCW 58.17.120 provides no plat shall be approved covering any land situated in a flood control zone without the prior written approval from the Department of Ecology, State'of Washington. He noted the permit had been applied for but it had not been issued and there wasno prior written approval of record from the Department of Ecology. He added 58.17.150 provides each preliminary plat submitted for final approval shall be accompanied by the following agencies recommendations for approval or disapproval; local health department, local planning agency or commission and city engineer. He said there was a written recommendation from the Planning Commission but there wasnone•for the local health agency or the ctiy engineer. He noted the City Engineer had given some comments on whether utilities were available or not but there wasno written recommendation on approval or dis- approval, (3) & (4) The Council wascharged under RCW 58.17.110 in determining whether the plat makes adequate provision for roads, utilities and other elements necessary for responsible, well -planned development. Reich submitted to the Council that the preliminary plat before the Council did not have adequate infor- mation for a determination whether or not there was adequate provisionsfor public utilities, public ways, public schools and other requirements. He felt the Council should not leave these determinations up to staff;that it was a legislative deter- mination. It was moved by Craig, seconded by Larson, to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED It was moved by Craig, seconded, by Roegner, that the request of Trans -Canada Enterprises, Ltd. for the preliminary plat of Cedar Downs South be approved with the recommendations of the Planning Commission and Public Works Department and further that the time limit on this plat be limited to two years.
