The applicant, Recycling Northwest, Inc., conditional use permit to allow for separation, and transfer of construction, land clearing (CDL) materials. applies for a the sorting, demolition and 2. The subject property is located at 655 and 657 2nd Street NW and is zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial. Surrounding zoning and land uses in the vicinity include M-2 in all directions and industrial uses. The Comprehensive Plan designates the surrounding land for heaV)' industrial uses. 3 . The property is the site of an existing recycling facility. The City approved a conditional use permit in 1990 for the facility. The City, in 1993, issued another conditional use permit that allowed for a wood chipper/shredder operation. This approval allowed for the construction of a 13,400 square foot building for the wood chipper/shredder operation. This building is proposed to be used for the CDL processing that is subject to this application. The wood chipper/shredder operation has not started and will be essentially be replaced in a large part by the current proposal. 4. Since the construction, demolition and land clearing (CDL) process was not made part of either of the previous conditional use permits another conditional use permit needs to be issued. '::t-... "'- ~ ~ iY) ~ ~ ~ 5. The CDL materials to be processed will be sheetrock, concrete, and asphalt from residential, commercial, and industrial sources. All processing of the materials occurs within the building. The equipment used for the operation include a front end loader and fork lift. Following the segregation of the materials, it will then be loaded into trailers, on site, and then transported to an off-site processing facility for reuse. The application indicates the materials will be processed and ------------------------ Ordinance No. 4975 May 21, 1997 Page 3 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 removed from the site within a 24 hour period. Any materials not able to be recycled will be trucked to a landfill. The applicant has indicated that there will be no outdoor storage of materials other than \~hat is in a trailer. 6 . The applicant has indicated that his own trucks will be bringing the CDL material to the site. It is anticipated that other private haulers may be allowed to bring CDL material to the site as well. The applicant has indicated that using other private haulers is not a high priority and is not projected to be a large part of his business. This part of the recycling center is limited to commercial users. The general public will not be able to access this part of the facility. 7. Since the conditional use permit is an expansion of previous approvals, the requirements of those previous approvals, including the environmental review, will continue to apply. In particular, truck traffic is only allowed to access the site from the north by way of "H" Street NW via sixth Street NW and "C" Street NW. The trailers that are stored with material, that can't be recycled, are limited to 6 loaded trailers. Each loaded trailer is also required to be removed within 18 hours filling said trailer. 8 . The initial environmental review, file #SEP0044-90, that was done in 1990 projected that a total of 344 vehicle trips would occur during an average weekday. The review of the 1993 request concluded that about 202 trips were likely. Since the proposal is essentially n~placing the wood chipper approval, the number of vehicle trips is still concluded to be less than what was projected in 1990. ':f.. "'- ~ ~ ~ <;J ~ 9. At the time of the public hearing, a resident, Tom O'Neil, expressed concern about the dirt, dus1t, and noise in the neighborhood. Mr. O'Neil reported that he was not aware of any specific problems relating to trucks failing ------------------------ Ordinance No. 4975 May 21, 1997 Page 4 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 . . 1 to use the previously approved haul routes as a result of the fact that he resides some distance from the facility. Mr. O'Neil also suggested that it was appropriate for the City to require hours of operation for the use. 2 3 4 10. The staff report, with its recommendation of conditional approval, is incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in full. The contents of the case file, CUPOOOl-97, and the environmental files, SEPOOOl-97 and SEP0044-90, have been incorporated by reference and are part of the hearing record. 5 6 7 8 9 CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 10 11 1. There are a number of criteria which must be established before the undersigned is authorized to recommend the approval of a conditional use permit to the City Council. 12 13 2 . The first of these criteria is that the use will have no more of an adverse effect on the health, safety, or comfort of persons living or working in the area, and will be no more injurious, economically or otherwise, to property or improvements in the surrounding area. The property is located within the heavy industrial zone and surrounded by similar zoning. The M-2 zone is the City's least restrictive zoning classification and is intended to allow for uses such as the proposed use. 14 15 16 3. The proposal is in accord with the goals, policies, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan in that it is consistent with a number of policies and objectives in the Comprehensive Plan designed to promote waste reduction and recycling. ~ ~ '>.; ~ f{) ~ ~ 4. The proposal complies with or is capable of meeting all requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. ------------------------ Ordinance No. 4975 May 21, 1997 Page 5 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 1 2 3 5 . The proposal can be constructed and maintained so as to be harmonious and appropriate in design, character, and appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity. Truck traffic will not be increased and the processing of material on the site will occur within an existing building. 4 5 6 . Provided that it is properly conditioned, the proposal will not adversely affect the public infrastructure. 6 7 7. There are appropriate conditions imposed to control dust and noise. In addition, the undersigned concludes that in this situation there is not legal authority for the City to restrict hours of operation. 8 9 10 11 12 13 each of the For above referenced reasons, the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to the Auburn City 14 15 Council on this Conditional Use Permit to allow the sorting, separation, and transfer of construction, demolition, and land clearing (CDL) materials on property zoned M-2 (Heavy Industrial) located at 655 and 657 2nd Street NW, within the City of Auburn, County of King, State of Washington.
