I (we), the undersigned, OWNER(S) of property numbered opposite my (our)
names(s) hereby petition for a change of zoning classification of property
described herein from:
R-2 Single Family Residential
TO _C-3 Heavy Commercial
At
How is the property involved in this application more suitable for the uses permitted
in the proposed zone than those permitted in the present classification?
This property is prOposed for annexation, which is currently under review by the
Boundary Review Board for King County. Default zoning upon annexation is R~. However, the
property is located along Auburn Way North, in the midst of other heavy-commercial uses, and
the underlying comprehensive plan is for Heavy Commercial.
The property owner has requested that upon annexation his property be zoned C3 (see
attached letter initiating annexation). Annexation was initiated by the City; therefore the zoning
amendment request and SEPA for the rezone are also being initiated by the City.
B. Explain why there is a need in the area for more zoning of the type requested, and
wherever possible, substantiate this statement with factual data.
A rezone of this property would provide consistency of development and uses along
Auburn Way North.
C. Why is this zoning compatible with the other existing uses in the neighborhood?
Rezone for Hearing Examiner - Page 2
Parcels adjacent to this property along Auburn Way North are zoned C-3 Heavy
Commercial, developed for a variety of purposes. The property is across Auburn Way North from
the soon-to-be redeveloped "drive-in site" which is expected to have a substantial number of
commercial uses.
The neighborhood to the south and west of this property is still primarily residential, and
is part of an unincorporated island of King County territory. While it is not known when or if
these properties will annex to the City of Auburn, the underlying Comprehensive Plan
designation for the are~. is M-l, Light Industrial.
Why is this rezOne compatible with the existing zoning in the area?
Lots adjacent to this property to the north and south, as well as the property across
Auburn Way North, are all designated C-3 Heavy Commercial. In fact, were this property to
remain R-2, an incompatibility would be created.
Why is this rezone consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the area?
The underlying Comprehensive Plan designation is "Heavy Commercial." This
designation supports the C-3 zoning classification..
