FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The applicant is requesting a rezone from R-2 (Single
Family) to C-1 (Light Commercial). A Comprehensive Map
amendment is also required in that the parcel is
designated for single family uses as well as it lies
within a designated single family neighborhood.
2. The parcel is 7800 square feet and contains one single
family home.
The applicant is proposing to remove the home and
construct a 5200± square foot medical building which would
complement an existing 12,775 square foot medical
building.
3. To the west of the rezone are single family homes that
front on 12th Street. To the south, across 12th Street,
are single family homes as well. The single family homes
are within a designated single family neighborhood as
illustrated in the Comprehensive Plan.
4. To the north of the proposed rezone is a small commercial
shopping center that has frontage on Auburn Way South. A
secondary access is provided to the shopping center from a
private easement that connects to 12th Street. The
private easement lies on the east side of the lot proposed
to be rezoned.
5. As part of the project, the applicant is proposing to
locate the new building on the west side of the private
easement that connects the shopping center to 12th Street.
There would be a 40 foot separation between the existing
building and the new building.
6. Parking to serve the new building would be provided by a
90 space parking lot that lies on the east side of the
existing medical clinic.
7. The architect, representing the applicant, testified at
the August 6, 1991 public hearing that the existing single
family home was not livable and it was not economically
feasible to remodel the home to make it livable.
8. Constructing a new single family home may not be practical
given its location adjacent to commercial uses.
9. Related Comprehensive Plan Findings:

Objective 3.3: To provide flexibility in areas where a transition from existing
uses to planned uses is appropriate.
Policy 3.3.1.: Contract zoning can be used to manage the transition between
existing uses and future uses. Contract zoning allows new uses to be
conditioned in a manner which controls potential conflicts during such
transition. Contract zoning may be particularly useful as a timing devise to
ensure that the necessary public facilities are available to support new
development.
Goal 18: To provide for an orderly transition from older residential areas that
are no longer viable, to other uses.
Policy 18.0.1.: The management of areas in transition from existing residential
to a planned non-residential use, should balance the needs of existing
residents with the need to accommodate new uses.
10. Based upon the testimony presented by the applicant at the
public hearing before the Council on September 16, 1991,
the Council makes the additional Finding of Fact that the
hours of operation of the medical clinic on the rezoned
property should be limited.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
It is concluded that the Comprehensive Plan Map amendment
and rezone may be approved based upon the following:
1. A C-1 zone would be consistent with the
existing C-1 zone on the north and east.
The rezone would add to and complement an
existing medical facility.
2.
3.
4.
only a building would be constructed. No
additional parking or access is needed.
The existing home is unlivable and too
expensive to remodel.
The lot shall be constructed such that it
is part of the existing medical facility.

6. Traffic safety measures should be
implemented to protect pedestrians using
the new medical building.
