December 1, 1997
Hearing Examiner's
following Findings
FINDINGS OF FACT
The applicants, Ralph and Tina Waddle, have requested
their property be rezoned from the existing zoning
designation of RR, Rural Residential, to an R-2, Single
Family, zone. The property is 3.94 acres in size and
is located at 36229 148th Avenue SE. The property
contains a single family home with the remainder being
vacant.
The applicants have only submitted an application to
have their property zoned in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and have not submitted any
applications for any future development. The existing
Comprehensive Plan map designation is Single Family
Residential which the R-2 zone is appropriate for.
The subject rezone is immediately adjacent to Janssen's
Addition. This is a 140 lot single family subdivision
that lies on the north boundary of the subject

o
property. Janssen's Addition is zoned R-2 and is
served by all necessary public infrastructure including
streets and utilities.
The subject property is served by a private water and
sewer system. The property also abuts 148th Avenue
which is a two lane rural street with open ditches on
both sides. The property also contains wetlands as
identified by the City's wetland inventory.
While the properly abuts a developed parcel (Janssen's
Addition) that is served by adequate public
infrastructure, excepting the storm drainage system,
the future development of the subject parcel will be
problematic. The subject parcel will need to either
update a booster pump station for water, provide an
additional pump or replace the existing pumps, in order
to get sufficient water flow to serve the property.
While sanitary sewer is available in the vicinity, the
topography of the site may cause concerns with flow.
The property also abuts a substandard street which will
need to be improved for any subsequent development as
well as address the wetland issues on the site.
The appropriate environmental review was done on the
rezone only. This is considered to be a non-project
action and the environmental review was done on the
rezone aspect only. When a specific development is
proposed, there will need to be additional
environmental review performed that completely analyzes
all issues of the site. This will include at a
minimum, a traffic analysis, an utility analysis, a
wetland delineation and mitigation plan, together with
other issues that may involve the parcel.

At the time of the public hearing, adjoining neighbors
in Janssen's Addition subdivision expressed concern
about wetlands and drainage issues. Their concerns
will be addressed when an ultimate development plan is
submitted for the property.
The contents of the case file, REZ0003-97, and the
environmental file, SEP0041-97, of this project are
hereby incorporated by reference and made part of the
record of the hearing.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
The rezone may be approved· It is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan map designation.
The rezone, in and of itself, does not allow a
subsequent use of the property without additional
environmental review.
For each of the above referenced reasons, the
recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to the Auburn City
Council on this rezone from RR (Rural Residential) to R-2
(Single Family) is approved.
