Gary Volchok, CB Richard Ellis, on behalf of Fiorito Brothers Ina, has applied for a contract rezone fora 10 acre property located at 151h Street NW and M Street NW, approximately 1500 M Street NW. 2. A Comprehensive Plan Text amendment was applied for concurrently with the rezone on June 17, 2009. However, after further review of the reguested land use action and the Aubum City Code, staff determined that a text amendment was not necessary. 3. The Business Park (BP) Zone is allowed pursuant to Aubum City Code (ACC) Chapter 18.36 and is intended to provide a suitable area for industrial, professional office, service, and commercial uses within a planned, well managed site with high quality development standards. It is also the intent of this district to allow flexibility with regard to development standards and uses if the flexibility results in an atmosphere of superior architectural, site and landscape design. This district may be applied to any site within the city designated as "region serving" in the comprehensive plan, which is zoned commercial or industrial. In addition, the comprehensive plan identifies specific locations appropriate for business park development. The subject site is within the City's "region serving area" (Exhibit 15) and has a commerciai zoning designation. 4. The C3 (Heavy Commercial) zone allows for a variety of uses ranging from automobile sales to professional offices (see ACC 18.30.020). The intent of the C-3 zone is, "The intent and objective of the C-3 district classification and its application is to provide for the location of and grouping of enterprises which may involve some on-premises retail service but with outside activities and display or fabrication, assembling, and service features. This zone is intended to accommodate uses which are oriented to automobiles either as the mode or target or producing the commercial service. The uses enumerated in this classification are considered as having common or similar pertormance standards in that they are heavier in type than those uses permitted in the more restrictive commercial classifications." 5. The intent of the M-1 (Light Industrial) zone is, "The purpose of the M-1 light industrial zone is to accommodate a variety of industrial, commerciai, and limited residential uses in an industrial park environment, to preserve land primarily for light industrial and commercial uses, to implement the economic goals of the comprehensive plan and to provide a greater flexibility within the zoning regulations for those uses which are non-nuisance in terms of air and water pollution, noise, vibration, glare or odor. The light industrial/commercial character of this zone is intended to address the way in which industrial and commercial uses are carried out rather than the actual types of products made. The character of this zone will limit the type of primary activities which may be conducted outside of enclosed buildings to outdoor displays and sales. Uses which are not customarily conducted indoors or involve hazardous materials are considered heavy industrial uses under this title and are not appropriate for the M-1 zone. An essential aspect of this zone is the need to maintain a quality of development that attracts rather than discourages further investment in light industrial and commercial development. Consequently, site activities which could distract from the visual quality of Page 3 of 10 1 Agenda Subject: Fiorito Business Park Rezone; Application No. Date: February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 development of those areas, such as outdoor storage, should be strictly regulated within this zone." 6. Pursuant to ACC Section 18.36.030, uses listed as permitted, administrative, and conditional in the M-1 zone and uses listed as permitted in the G3zonemay be considered fora Business Park zone. Theapplicant requests a variety of uses be permitted as part of the Business Park including warehousing and manufacturing. Please see Exhibit 12 for the complete list of recommended permitted uses by staff and Exhibit 3 for the complete list of uses proposed by the applicant. 7. There are specific development and supplemental development standards that are applicalile to a Business Park zoned property outlined in ACC Sections 18.36.050 and 18.36.060. 8. As part of a Business Park rezone, a conceptual site pian is required. If the rezone is approved by the City Council then a final site plan is submitted to the Planning Director for review and approval. The conceptual site plan shows an approximate 95,250 square foot building with associated parking, landscaping, andstorm drainage facilities. As a tenant has not been identified for this site, detailed analysis of parking, traffic, and storm drainage facilities will be done when there is a tenant. 9. A goal of the Business Park zone, as stated above, is to provide a location for a mix of uses that could include retail, office, or warehouse. 10. Pursuant to ACC 18.68.030 and 18.68.040, all applications for a rezone shall be reviewed by the Planning Director prior to the scheduling of a public hearing. After review of the application, the Director shall determine which of the following two processes should occur to properly hear the rezone: a. If the rezone is consistent with the comprehensive plan, then the Hearing Examiner shall conduct a public hearing on the rezone and make a recommendation to the City Council pursuant to ACC 18.66.170. b. If the rezone is in conflict with the comprehensive plan, or there are no policies that relate to the rezone, or the policies are not complete, then a comprehensive plan amendment must be approved by the City Council prior to the rezone being scheduled for a public hearing in front of the Hearing Examiner. The Planning'Commission shall conduct a public hearing on the comprehensive plan amendment and make a recommendation to the City Gouncil, This application is consistent with the comprehensive plan, as outlined below in the conclusions portion of the staff report and is therefore being processed pursuant to Process A specified above. 11. The applicant filed an environmental checklist that addressed the comprehensive plan amendment and rezone. The checklist was revised on June 23, 2009 to identify adjacent critical areas (Exhibit 5). 12. On January 18, 2010, the SEPA Responsible Official issued a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) for the proposed Business Park rezone. The comment period ended February 2, 2010 with no comments received and the appeal period ends February 16, 2010 (Exhibit 6). 13. Pursuant to ACC 18.68.040, notice of a public hearing shall be given at least 10.days prior to the public hearing and in accordance with ACC 14.07.040. The public hearing notice was published in the Seattle Times on February 3, 2010, provided to the property owners within 300 feet of the subject site, and posted on the subject property meeting this requirement (Exhibit 9). Page 4 of 10 Agenda Subject: Fiorito Business Park Rezone; Application No. Date: February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 14. The City Council changed their roie in quasi-judicial approvals giving that authority to Hearing Examiner to make decisions with the.adoption of Ordinance No. 6184 on October 6, 2008. Since rezones areapproved by Ordinance the City Council is still the decision maker on rezones with the Hearing Examiner making a recommendation on the proposal. 15. As part of the 2006 Annual Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, the City initiated several land use map changes from sn industrial designation to a commercial designation. The subject property was part of those amendments with the City Council approving a land use change from Light Industrial to Heavy Commercial along with a subsequent rezone from M-1 to C-3. Afterfour years of not being able to secure a tenant for the site under the C-3 zoning, the applicant requested a Business Park rezone in order to allow additional uses, primarily industrial. 16. M Street NW abutting the subject property to the west is a non-residential collector and this road classification supports the rezone requesL However the current roadway is not constructed to current nomresidential collector street standards. Any future development of the subject site will require frontage improvements at a minimum includes curb, gutter, sidewalk, street trees, street lights, and a bike lane. 17. The subject sites access is from M Street NW which ties into 15ih Street NW. This intersection is located within approximately 350 feet to the 15'" Street NW/SR-167 on/off ramps, which are controlled by the Washington State Department of Transportation. Once a tenant has been identified and the final site plan submitted for review, the City will further analyze the traffic impacts of the project and identify appropriate traffic mitigation that may be warranted as a result of the tenant. CONCLUSIONS: ACC Chapter 18.68 provides certain criteria for approval of a rezone and ACC Chapter 18.36 has specific requirements that shall be met for approving a Business Park zone: 1. The rezone must be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Comment Poiicy LU-3 states that areas on the valley floor which are suitable to supporf large scale economic development project should be reserved, for the most part, for uses which support Auburn's role as a regional employment and commercial center (to be known as the Region Serving Area). The subject site is within the designated Region Serving Area and proposed to be developed with a 95,000 square foot building that will support a range of commercial and industrial type uses. Policy LU-109 states that highly visible areas (lands visible from SR-167 or SR-18) which tend to establish the image of the city should not be used by heavy industrial uses. The subject site is visible from SR-167, particularly from the southbound direction. Staff recommends several design standards ~ be applied to the development of this site as part of the contract rezone to insure that the project has a high quality visual appearance. Policy ED-8 states that Auburn should continue to provide an economic base not only for the Auburn area but also for the south King County and north Pierce County region. The subject site is located centrally in Auburn and will provide a range of commercial and industrial uses that will provide jobs and economic growth within the region. Page 5 of 10 Agenda Su6ject: Fiorito Business Park Rezone; Application No. Date`. February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 The Economic Deveiopment chapter of the Comprehensive Plan discussesthe impacts of Streamlined Sales Tax on the City of Au6urn. Aubum and similar cities have fiistorically invested in infrastructure to support businesses engaged in warehouse and distribution activities. With the passage of streamlined sales tax, new warehouse and distribution facilities do not provide the sales tax revenue to support the infrastructure needs of these types of uses. The applicant proposes that warehouse and distribution is a permitted use as part of the business park. The Business Park zone states that uses in the C-3 and M-1 zones may be permitted in the Business Park zone. Under Finding 9, a goal of the Business Park zone is to provide a location for a mix of uses that could include retail, office, or warehouse. Staff iecognizes that requiring only retail atthis bcation has not proven successful; however, the recommendation is to permit only warehouse and distribution in the rear portion of the proposed building and require retail in the front portion of the building that is visible to SR-167. Under the recommended conditions of approval, staff requests dhat a minimum of 25% of the building be retail. " Policy UD-9 states that the visual impact of large new developments should be a priority consideration in their review and approval. Staffs recommendation includes design standards for the project to develop under. 2. The rezone must be initiated by someone other than the City in order for the Hearing Examiner to consider the request. Comment The rezone has been initiated by the property owner, Fiorito Brothers Inc. and applicant, Gary Volchok. 3. Pursuant to ACC Section 18.36.020, a conceptual approval is the first step in a Business Park rezone. The rezone shall be a contract rezone and shall include an agreement that establishes the type, square footage, and general location of the uses; the location and size of the park; restrictive covenants; public improvements; and the responsibilities of the owner/developer. Comment The proposed business park is approximately 10 acres in size which meets the required minimum area as required under Section 18.36.050. At the conceptual site plan stage, the application proposes a single structure that is approximately 95,250 square feet. When a final site plan is submitted, staff is not opposed to multiple structures as long as the total square footage does not exceed 95,252 square feet. As stated in the application materials (Exhibit 3), the applicant proposes several uses from both the C3 and M-1 zoning districts. Staff concurs with the majority of the proposed permitted uses with the exception of bingo halis and cold storage plan[s (Exhibit 13). As discussed under response number 1, the Business Park zone states that uses in the C-3 and M-1 zones may be permitted in the Business Park zone. Under Finding 9, a goal of the Business Park zone is to provide a location for a mix of uses that could include retail, office, or warehouse. Staff recognizes that requiring only retail at this location has not proven successful; however, the recommendation is to permit only warehouse and distribution in the rear portion of the proposed building and require retail in the front portion of the building that is visible to SR-167. Under the recommended conditions of approval, staff requests that a minimum of 25% of the building be retail. Frontage improvements will be required when the property tlevelops and any necessary utility improvements depending on the tenant of the building (e.g. fire flow). As mentioned above under Finding 16, staff will review the traffic impacts once there is a tenant and a project is submitted for permits. Page 6 of 10 Agenda Subject: Fiorito Business Park Rezone; Application No. Dafe: February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 4. Pursuant to ACC Section 18.36.020, a Business Park zone sball only be approved when the owneddeveloper has demonstrated that a public benefit will result and the project contains architectural, site, and landscape design standards that are significantly superiorto those typically required in the other industrial and commercial zones. Comment The applicant proposes to construct a development similar to the Opus Park site, which was a Business Park, originally approved by the City Council in 1997 (Ordinance No. 4962) and subsequently revised in 2001 (Ordinance No. 5607), and located south of the SuperMall (See Section D of Exhibit 3). The applicant proposes the project site will have landscaping, a master sign plan, lighting, and architectural features similarto those constructed at the Opus Park site. Staff reviewed the proposed elements to the Fiorito Business Park Rezone and provided a comparison outlined below: Re uired b Code Ap licant Pro osal to Exceed Standard a. Fronta e landsca in - 5 foot width T e III a. Pro osal 10 foot width landsca in b. Architectural elements - Comprehensive Plan b. Applicant proposes similar architectural features policies to address visual impact of large as the Opus Park site. developments however, City does not have design standards for the C-3 zone c. Parking lot landscaping - 100 square foot c. What shown on the conceptual site plan is code lanter island eve 10 stalls. minimum. d. Signs permitted individually by tenant d. Applicant proposes to have a master sign plan for the business park. e. Recreation facilities are not required as part of e. Provide a trail along the wetland buffer that commercial develo ment. could otentiall connect to the Interurban Trail. Staff concurs that the applicanPs proposal exceeds the standards required by code in regards to landscaping, a master signage plan, and providing a trail. While the architectural elements are not a code requirement and the applicant is proposing similar project look to the Opus Park site, staff is concerned with some of the features at the Opus Park site such as blank walls, no awnings over business entrances, and the building scale appearance. Staff recommends design standards be applied to the project as outlined in Exhibit 14. 5. No significant impacts on the public infrastructure shall occur that cannot be effectively mitigated by the development of the business park. Comment The proposed Business Park is not anticipated to have significant impacts on the public infrastructure that cannot be effectively mitigated. There are existing utilities available to the project site; an 8 inch sewer main and 8 inch water main. Depending on the eventual tenant of the subject site, there could be a need to upgrade the water main to meet fire flow requirements. Frontage improvements will be required along M Streel NW to meet the City's non-residential collector standards. As previously stated, a detailed traffic analysis will be provided and reviewed by staff at the final site plan stage and atenant is identified. 6. If the approval of the business park requires a subdivision of the property, the preliminary plat may be processed concurrently. Page 7 of 10 Agenda Subject: Fiorito Business Park Rezone; Application No. Date: February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 Comment The business park does not require a subdivision of the property; however, a lot line elimination will need to be processed concurrently with the final site plan approval process to remove the parcel line going through the property building. Staff recommends a condition of approval to address this. In addition, the Washington State Supreme Court has identified othergeneral rules for rezone applications (see Parkridge v. Seattle, 89 Wn.2d.454; 573 P.2d 359 (1978)): a. Conditions in the area must have changed since the original zoning was establfshed if not consistent with the comprehensive plan. Comment The proposed business park rezone is consistent with the comprehensive plan as analyzed above under response number 1. b. The proposed rezone must bear a substantial relationship to the general welfare of the community. Comment Also a requirement of the Business Park zone, the applicant must demonstrate a public benefit. The proposed rezone implements the City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan by providing economic development within the Region Serving Area of the City. By meeting the conditions of approval, the development will be constructed under design standards that would not otherwise be required if developed under the C-3 zone as well as providing additional landscaping, and potentially recreational facilities along the access road that could potentially connect to the Interurban Trail. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Based upon the application and Findings of Fact and Conclusions of the staff report, staff recommends that the Hearing Examiner recommend to the City Council approval of the rezone with the following conditions of approval: 1. A lot line elimination shall be processed concurrently with the final site plan approval. 2. The applicant shall submit a traffic impact analysis, storm drainage report, and wetland report as part of the final site plan approval process. 3. The permitted uses shall be those uses identified in Exhibit 13 with the exceptions previously noted. 4. The project shall comply with the design standards as outlined in Exhibit 14. As part of the final site plan submittal and review process, the applicant shall submit building elevations demonstrating how the proposed building complies with the Fiorito Business Park Design Standards. 5. The general location of the proposed building to be developed on the subject site shall be consistent with the conceptual site plan dated February 5, 2010. The proposed storm drainage facility may increase depending on the outcome of the final site plan review which could impact location of parking spaces and will be reviewed as part of the final site plan review process. Page 8 of 10 Agenda SubjecL Fiorito Business Rark Rezone; Application No. Date: February 3, 2010 REZ09-0003 6. A master landscape plan shall be prepared for the entire project site. A minimum ten (10) foot wide landscape area sha1F be constructed along the M StreetNW property frontage. The expanded landscape area along the top of slope area of M Street NW as it rises to intersect 15" Street NW shall be designed in an innovative way and create a gateway into the project. The master landscape plan shall be prepared and submitted as part of the fnal site plan process. 7. A mastersign plan shall be prepared and approved by the City that coordinates the exteriorsigns of the individual tenants. The sign regulations outlined in ACC Chapter 18.56 for the G3 zone shall apply for size, height; and number of signs permitted. Signage shall be part of the architecture of the building and not an afterthought; however, the architectural design of the tenants' logos is not intended to be altered by this condition. The master sign plan shall be prepared and submitted as part of the final site plan process. 8. All exterior lighting shall be designed and constructed such that the direct illumination does not unreasonably spill over on adjoining properties. The exterior lighting shall be coordinated for the site; including both parking lot lighting and building lighting: The exterior lighting plan shall be prepared and submitted as part of the final site plan process. 9. Pedestrian walkways shall be provided that connect the parking areas to building entrances. Pedestrian connections shall be clearly defined by textured paving, including vehicular lanes, such as unit pavers, stamped wncrete, or scored concrete. These walkways shall be shown on the final site plan. 10. The concept of a recreational trail adjacent to the wetland area on Parcel 1221049041 shall be part of the final site plan review process and potential connection to the Interurban Trail explored. 11. Amendments to this Business Park rezone may occur as follows: a. The Planning Director may interpret the words and meaning of certain conditions in order to resolve conflicts in implementation. b. If changes to the language of the rezone are required, such proposed changes shall be reviewed by the Planning and Community Development Committee of the City Council, or its successor. If the change is minor, less than 10% change, then the Committee shall make a recommendation to the City Council. If the change is major, greater than 10% modification, then the Committee shall refer the change to the Hearing Examiner. The Hearing Examiner shall conduct a public hearing and make a recommendation to the Ciry Council. c. Amendments to the rezone shali only be initiated by the property owner of the City.

The South Seventh Corporation, owners of a 15.2 acre 10 Parcel of property located at the southwest corner of 15th and "O" Street SW, filed an application on May 5, 11 1995, requesting that a business park be established on a' the subject property. ~ 12 Q 2. Surrounding zoning and Zand uses in the vicinity include ~ 13 C-3, SuperMall, to the north; the City of Algona to the (a 14 south; M-1, Boeing offices, to the east; and M-l, flood Q storage ponds, to the west. The Comprehensive Plan ~ 15 designates the site for light industrial uses while land ~ 16 to the east and west have a eimilar Comprehensive Plan designation. The SuperMall to the north is designated 17 for commercial uses in the Comprehensive Plan. 18 3. The property is currently vacant and is zoned M-1, Light 19 Industrial. The Auburn Zoning Code provides for Business Park pursuant to Chapter 18.36. The SP district is 20 intended to provide a suitable area for industrial, professional office, service and commercial uses within a 21 planned, well managed site with high quality development 22 standards. 23 4. The Zoning Code allows for the establishment of any site within a"xegion serving" area as illustrated on the 24 Comprehensive Plan which is zoned either commercial or 25 industrial. Map 3.2 of the Comprehensive Plan entitled 26 Ordinance No. 4962 April 29, 1997 Page 2 i "Urban Form'° illustrates Ehe subject property to be 2 within the region serving area of the City. The proposed rezone is consistent with the Business Park district 3 Comprehensive Plan designation. 4 5. The approval process for business park includes two 5 steps. The first step is the conceptual approval of a business park by the Hearing Examiner and City Council. 6 This process is a rezone process as established by the 7 Zoning Ordinanceat Section 18.68.030. The second step is final approval of the site plan by the Planning 8 Director following the approval• of the BP diserict for ' 9 the site by the City Council. 10 61 The BP district is implemented by a contract rezone including an agreement which establishes the type, square 11 footage, and general locations of the uses, the location ~ and oize of the park, appropriate,restricti.ve covenants, ~ 12 public improvements, and the responsibilities of the O 13 owner/developer. ~ ~ 14 7. The Zoning Ordinance authorizes only those uses approved ~ 15 by the contract rezorie in the HP district. The uses ~ which are established in the contract are drawn from uses 16 listed in the M-1 zone which are permitted outright ae well as those allowed by an administrative or conditional 17 use permit, and those uses listed in the C-3 zone which 1$ are permitted outright. The Ordinance allows any procedural or substantive conditions to implement the BP ly district. 20 8. The application submitted liated 17 different uses which 21 the applicant would like to have considered within the HP district. While theee uses were listed, the 22 environmental review of the project considered a 10 screen, 3,200 square foot cinema, an automobile service 23 station with convenience store, a 70,000 square foot 150 24 room motel, and two restaurant uses approximately 7,200 to 7,400 square feet in size. 25 26 Ordinance NO. 4962 April 29, 1997 Page 3 i 9. Commercial zoning of the property lying across 15th 2 Street to the north was approved by the City in 1993 for the construction of a two million plus square foot 3 shopping complex known as the SuperMall. The initial 4 phase of this development has been constructed and opened for business in the Fall of 1995. 5 10. When the City wae going through the rezone process for 6 the SuperMall, concern was raised by the City that the 7 SuperMall would create uncontrolled spin-off or strip commercial development on adjacent and nearby properties. 8 Such development would not be in the best inteYest of the City and while concern was raised, there was no 9 development moratorium placed on any of the adjacent 10 properties. 11 11. At the time of the public hearing on this rezone, the opponent of the rezone, to wit, the SuperMall, presented ~ 12 subetantial evidence about the availability of other ~ 13 properties in the vicinity for rezone which evidence was ~ O directly contrary to evidence presented by the same party ~ 14 during the hearings on the development for the SuperMall. t0 ~ 15 12. Commercial development around the SuperMall should be ~ 16 carefully regulated. The City's desire to carefully regulate such development has been evidenced by the 17 adOption of Policy LU-74 adopted in April, 1995 prior to submittal of the subject application. New development is 18 required to meet certain criteria as set forth in Policy 19 LU-74. 20 13. Prior to the approval of the HP district, in accordance 21 with Zoning Ordinance Section 18.36.020, the owner/developer must demonstrate a public benefit will 22 reault and that proper architectural, site, and landscape deszgn standards have been implemented which must be 23 significantly superior to those required in an industrial 24 zone. The project contains eight lots which will be subdivided into six lots and a design scheme will be 25 coordinated such that each lot will share parking, 26 Ordinance No. 4962 April 29, 1997 eage a 1 access, be connected with pedeatrian walkways, have 2 similar landscaping, and signing, lighting, and common architectural featurea. The project will look like one 3 planned development as oppoaed to 8 individual, unrelated 4 uses that are allowed to happen with the existing zoning. 5 14., The Ordinance also requires that no significant impacts on the public infraetructure shall occur which cannot be 6 efEectively mitigated. 7 15. Assurances need to be made that preclude the appearance 8 • of a strip or unplanned, •piecemeal development and promote uses that are consistent with the Comprehensive 9 Plan Policy LU-74. While the application listed 17 10 potential uses, the list of potential uses to be incZuded within the contract rezone for this parcel should be as 11 follows: ~Y 12 Automobile service station 0 lg Banks and financial institutions ~ Convenience grpcery store ~p 14 Daycare O 15 Delicatessens and restaurants ~ health and physical fitness clubs 16 Meeting rooms and/or reception facilities Motels 17 Personal service shops 18 Professional offices Secretarial services ly Theater (cinema) or comparable indoor commercial entertainment 20 21 16. The environmental review £or the project considered the impacts of the development and operation of various uses 22 listed above. Additional environmental review may be required for any of the other uses which may be developed 23 in a BP dietrict. In order to give predictability to the 24 development and provide assurances for neighboring property owners, if there are other uses proposed, other 25 than the service station, motel, restaurant and theater, 26 Ordinance No. 9962 April 29,.1997 Page 5 1 those uaes should not generate more traffic or provide 2 further impacte or increase the building area above that which was originally proposed and considered as part of 3 the environmental review process. I£ any project were to 4 exceed thoae limitations, then an amendment to the contract rezone would be required in addition to further 5 environmental review. 6 17. The Final Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance was 7 issued on February 15, 1996, containing 26 mitigating conditions. The Final NIDNS was appealed, and a small • g portion of the •traffic analysia was remanded 'to the Responsible Official for further review. The appeal was 9 ultimately denied. 10 18. The development of the SuperMall and the adoption of the 11 BP zoning district constitute a change in circumstance ~ which justify the consideration of a new zoning ~ 12 designation for the site. ~ 13 ~ 14 CONCLUSIONS OF LAW C) ~ 15 ~ 1. The BP zonin desi nation ma be a 16 9 g Y pproved on the site. The development proposed on the site meets the intent of 17 the BP district. It wi11 provide superior architecture, site and landscape design, than what otherwise is 18 required by existing M-1 zoning. It is within the 19 "region serving" area of the Comprehensive Plan and the property is properly zoned to allow for a BP designation. 20 2. With the development of the SuperMall, there has been a 21 change in circumstance which warrants consideration of a 22 different use on the property other than the existing M-1 zoning. The aite will be developed in a manner which is 23 not conducive to strip type commercial development. 24 3. There is no le al authorit for restrictin or 3 Y g precluding 25 the proposed development. 26 - Ozdinance No. 4962 - April 29, 1997 Page 6 1 2 4, The proposal is consistent with Comprehensive Policy LU- 74 which was written specifically to address development 3 near the SuperMall. 4 5. A planned busineas park is more superior to having small 5 uncoordinated development. A planned bueineso parlc can be more thoroughly and carefully regulated than can small 6 uncoordittated development under different ownerships. 7 6. The existing zoning on the aite can allow for much more 8intense uses which could generate even more•traffic. 9 7. There is limited vacant land that available and/or ready 10 for. development. In any event, the City is not in any way persuaded that it is permissible to consider the 11 speculative cumulative impacts of future development and each separate land use decision. The City, the ~ 12 ro onent and the o ~ P P , pponent, are all represented by p 13 counsel. The Hearing Examiner has done independent legal ~ reaearch. No authority £or considering the speculative ~ 14 cumulative impacts of future development has been Q 15 discovered. ~ ~ 16 17 For each of the above referenced reasons, the 18 19 recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to the Auburn City Zp Council on this rezone from M-1 (Light Industrial) to BP 21 (Business Park) is hereby approved. 22 NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CTTY OF AUBURN, 23 WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: 24 'l5 26 Ordinance No. 9962 April 29, 1997 Page 7 1 section 1.

The Auto Nation USA Corporation, the owners of a 15.2-acre parcel of property located at the southwest corner of 15th and "O" Street SW, have filed an application requesting that the Business Park District, that is currently established on the subject property, be revised. The Business Park Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 2 t-~----r----_ , (BP) District zoning is allowed pursuant to Chapter 18.36 of the Auburn Zoning Code. The 8P District is intended to provide a suitable area for industrial, professional office, service and commerclal uses within a pianned, weli managed site with high quality development standards. 2. in 1995 the City of Auburn approved the zoning for a Business Park at the subject property. That approval allowed for the foliowing: , Automobile service station Banks and financiai institutions v. Convenience grocery store ~ Daycare ~ Delicatessens and restaurants o Health and physical fitness clubs ~ Meeting rooms and/or reception facilities Motels o Personal service shops N Professional offices ~ Secretarial services ~ Theater (cinema) or comparable indoor commercial entertainment. 3. The property has, however, not developed and is currently vacant. The current proposai would also allow for some of the previously approved uses except for the molel and theater. There is also requested to have warehousing, manufacturing and other light industrial uses. Please see Attachment #1 for the complete list of proposed uses. - Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 3 , The site plan is also proposed to be revised to reflect a new layout forthe buiidings. Two alternative site plans have beert submitted for review. The site ~ plan identified as "SD1" illustrates two large buildings. Building "A",is ihe southern most building and fronts on Boundary Boulevard. It is approximately 208,989 square feet in size. Building "B" is the northern most building and fronts on 15'" Street SW. Building "B" is approximately 106,718 square feet in size. The buildings would share a common loading and unloading area that would ba located beiween the two buiidings. ~ ~ ~ U O ° It is envisioned that Building "A" wouid have most of the warehousing and industrial uses. Since Builciing "B" has frontage on 15'h Street SW and is 0 ~ across from the SuperMall, the non-industrial uses would likely be within this c 0 building. The applicant has also requested that building "A" could be up to three separate buildings and buiiding "B" could be up to rivo separate buildings. The total square footage wouid, however, not be greater if there were multiple buildings. An alternative site plan identified as "SDl-retail" has also been submitted that illustrates a"retail pad" at the intersecting corner of 15'" and "O" Street SW. This could be a freestanding commercial use such as a gas station. Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 , Page 4 4. Pursuant to Section 18.36A20, the BP district shall be implemented by a contract rezone and shall include an agreement thaY establishes the type, square footage and general locations of the uses, the location and size of the park, restrictive covenants, public improvements, and the responsibilities of the owner/developer. 5. Pursuant to Section 98.36.030, only those uses authorized by the ~ contract rezone may be ailowed in the BP District. The uses that are ~ ~ estabiished in the contract are drawn from those I(sted in the M-1 zone 0 ~ which are permitted outright as well.as those which are allowed by an ° administrative or conditional use permit; and those uses listed in the C-3 ~ ~ zone that are permitted outright. Section 18.36.030 also aliows the Hearing Examiner and City Council to establish any procedural or substant(ve conditions to Implement the BP District. 6. All of the uses listed in Attachment #1 are allowed within the existing M-1 zone with the exception of the art, music and Photography studios; bakery and pastry shops; dry cleaning and laundry services; hobby shops; small animal hospitals; pharmacies; meeting rooms and/or reception facilities; retail sales of . automobils parts, flowers and house ptants, furniture and home furnishings, Ortlinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 5 _ ~_.._.-i--r--- - - - . ~ household appliances, nursery and horticuitural products, office supplies and equipment, photographic equipment including finishing; schools, including art, . ~ business, barber, beauty, dancing, driving, martial atts and music. All of these uses are permitted in the C-3 zone and therefore can be permitted as part of the Business Park. 7. Pursuant to Section 18.36.020, the approvai process for business parks includes two steps. The first step is the conceptual approval of the business park by the Hearing Examiner and City Council. This process cn ~ is the rezone process as established by Section 18.68.030 of the Zoning 0 o Ordinance. The second step is the final approval of the site plan by fhe ~ Planning Director once the BP District has been approved by the City ~ a Council. N O O N 8. In 1993, the City approved additional commerciai zoning on the property that lies across 15th Street to the north of the subject property. The zoning allowad for the construction of a two million (plus) square foot shopping complex, also known as the SuperMall. The initial phase of the SuperMali has been constructed and opened for business in the Fall of 1995. Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 . Page 6 ~ . 9. When the City was going through the rezone process for the SuperMall, there was concern raised that the SuperMall wouid create uncontrolled "spin off or strip commercial" development on adjacent or nearby parcels, that would not be in the besY interests of the City. While there was concern raised, the City did not put any type of moratoria on developing the adjacent properties. 10. While there are limited opportunities for additional commercial rn ~ development near the SuperMall any such development should be 0 o carefully considered. This is evidenced by the following Comprehensive ~ Plan policy the City has recently adopted regarding deveiopment near 0 the SuperMall. c" ~ m w LU-74 Additional commercial development of land near the SuperMail shall be limited to those properties whose comprehensive plan designation and existing zoning (or a possible rezone to business park designation) allow for commercial uses. This development must meet the following conditions: a. If the new development is on industrially zoned property, the development shail be limited to office, entertainment, or other uses, e.g. motels, which complement the uses at the SuperMall. General retail uses would only be allowed in limited instances and only if incidental and subordinate to another use on the site. b. Small, individual commercial developments are discouraged. Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2007 Page 7 _ - c. 7he traffic impacts of the commercial development shail receive significant consideration and will be mitigated as referred (n this Plan. 11. The subject request to modify the existing business designation is generally consistent with this policy in that the general retail that fs being proposed is limited and incidental. 12. The Business Park that was previously approved was approved in part . because it would have provided for a more coordinated development ~ than the prior M-1, Light Indusirial zoning and lot layout would have ~ ~ Q provided. The subject property is currently divided into 8 separate lots. 0 b ~ The proposal is to "adjusY" the 8 lots into 3 or 4. While there will be c separate lots, the design scheme will be coordinated such that each lot N ~ will share parking, access, be connected with pedestrian walkways, have 0 ~ similar landscaping, signing, lighting, and common architectural features. In summary, the project will look like one planned development as envisioned with the previous business park zoning. 13. Section 18.36.020, of the Zoning Code, requires that before a BP District is approved that the owneNdeveloper shall demonstrate that a public benefit will result and the project contains architectural, site, and landscape design standards that are significantly superior to those Ordinance No. 5607 . November 16, 2001 Page 8 - , required of the industrial zone. As previously mentioned, the project wili continue to provide features that will provide for a public benefit that were previously envisioned by the prior approval. 14. Section 18.36.020 also requires that no significant impacts on the pubiic infrastructure shall occur that cannot be effectively mitigated. The environmental review process for this project took several months, and the pubiic infrastructure was carefully reviewed and appropriate mi#igation Q, measures imposed. Implementation of the mitigation measures will ensure that ~ b no significant impacts to the pubiic infrastructure wip occur. ~ 0 -Q 15. Whlle all of the uses that are listed could be allowed within the BP ~ District, it is appropriate to calculate each use and limit the range of uses in N G order to ensure that any use developed within the sub)ect property is consistent, complements and is compatible with any other use that is developed. Assurances aiso need to be made that preciude the appearance of a"strip" or unplanned, piecemeal development and promote uses that are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan policy LU-74. 16. The environmental review for the project considered the impacts of the development and the City on September 7, 2001 issued a Finai Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 9 f _i_------ Mitigated Determination of Non Significance (MDNS) for the proposed project. The MDNS contained 15 mitigating conditions that addressed soils, storm drainage, erosion control, flood water storage, wetlands, and traffic. 17. Related Comprehensive Plan policies: GP-18Flexible land development techniques including, but not limited to, clustering and planned unit developments (PUDs) for the development of residential, commerciel, and industrial properties shall be considered to implement this comprehensive pian. a. ~ LU-66 The City shall encourage the grouping of individual ~ a commercial enterprises along commercial arterials to promote the ~ sharing of parking areas, access drives and signs.

CONCLUSIONS It is has concluded thak the revision to the existing Business Park designation may be approved on the subject property, if properly conditioned, in that: Ordinance No. 5607 Novem6er 16,2001 Page ll - '1-l_-_T------ - 1. (t is consistent with the previous Business Park approvaf and It meets the infent of the BP District in that it will provide superior architecture, site and landscape design than what othervvise is required by the previous M-1 zoning on the subject property. It is within the "region serving" area of the Comprehensive Plan and the property is properly zoned to allow for a BP . designation. 2. There have been no moratoria or other restrictions placed upon this property that would preclude this development. rn ~ 3. The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Policy LU-74 0 o which was written specifically to address development near the SuperMall. a 0 4. Development will be coordinated as to use, architecture, traffic, signage, N and utilities in much the same manner that was used in the approval of the ~ SuperMall. This will ensure compatibility with not only the SuperMall, but the ~ light industrial uses in the area. RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS For each of the above reasons, the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to the Auburn City Council on this rezone application is approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. The types of uses to be allowed within the subject business park shall be consistent with those as listed in Attachment #1. Ordinanca No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 12 1"T-r- 2. The general loca4ion of the buildings to be developed on the site shall be consistent with the site plan identif(ed as "SDi" and revised as of 3-6- 01 and/or the site plan identified as "SD1-retaii" and revised as of 7-13-01. A. Building "A" may be up to three separate buildings however any cumulative square footage of any combination of buildings shali be approximate to 208;989 square feet. B. Building "B" may be two separate buildings; however, any u. ~ cumulative square footage of any combination of buildings shall be U n ~ approximate to 106,718 square feet. 0 n, 1. At least 25% of the totai square footage of the north G O facade of building "B" shall be glassed area. If there is more than one building, then each bullding shall meet this requirement. The purpose is to provide pedestrian type features as well as be more visually compatible with the commercial uses across the street. (As opposed to a large blank concrete wail typicaliy associated with a warehouse). At a minimum, the first 20 feet of the buliding interior, that is visible (at eye level) through this glassed-in area, Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 13 I-i'T---- shall contain tenants/uses that are similar to typical retail and or service use(s) which are oriented to "peopie activity" that may include but not be limited to office, lobby, customer counter, product sales or display, dining area, or showroom. These uses could be separate uses or incidental to another use within the same building. There shall not be permitted in this first 20 feet any v~ storage/warehousing or manufacturing/assembly activities. ~ a ~ 0 ~ ~ C. If there is a separate freestanding commercial pad as ~ illustrated on site plan "SD1-retail", the parcel shall be no larger than N C ° 30,000 square feet and contain no more than one principal building on the pad. An accessory or subordinate building such as an espresso stand or similar use may be allowed. The architectural features of the building(s) on the pad shall be consistent with architectural features of Building "B" 3. Since there is a wide range of uses that can potentially be permitted in the business park and each may have a wide range of parking - - Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page 14 'T'T--~~--•- needs and traffic generation characteristics, it is important that a monitoring plan be esteblished: 7he plan would ensure that the ultimate development of the business park does not exceed the amount of traffic that was analyzed and expected as well as ensure that parking Is provided that meets Zoning Code criteria. A. The cumulative development of the Business Park shall not exceed 199 daily vehicle tcips in the PM peak hour as analyzed as part of SEP01-0010. At the time of each submittal for permits or other similar ~ ~ o approvals, the applicant shall provide evidence to the City that proves ~ that traffic generated by the project will not cause the 199 daily vehlcie trips In the PM peak hour to be exceeded. The 199 daily PM vehicle 0 C trips may only be exceeded if the applicant prepares a traffic study that .o N proves, and the City of Auburn accepts, that there will not be any mitigation measures required beyond the payment of traffic impact fees for the additionai traffic generated. If the City concludes, based upon traffic study, that additional traffic mitigation measures are required, then the amendment process outlined in condition #12 wiil be followed which may also inciude revisions to SEP01-0010. Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page IS _ . B. Each use proposed within the Business Park shall meet the off- street parking standards as required by the Zoning Code. The site plan iilustrates approximately 288 parking spaces for the site. The cumulative number of parking spaces for the mix of uses seiected may exceed this total by no more than 50%, but in no case shall the minimum number of parking spaces required by the Zoning Code be lessened. At the time of ' each submittai for permits or other similar app'rovals, the applicant shall ' provide evidence to the City that proves that the requirements of this ~ ~ condition and the parking standards of the Zoning Code are being met. c~ 0 ~ 4. A master landscaping plan shall be prepared for the entire development ~ that provides for similar type and size of landscaping materials for all the c.a •o parcels of the development. Each parcel that is to be developed shall be consistent with the master landscaping plan. A landscaped berm shail be provided along the 15th Street frontage. The size of the berm, and type of planting materials shall be consistent with the other landscaped berms that exist on either side of 15th Street. Deciduous trees shall be a minimum of 3 inches in caliper at the time of planting; all other plant sizes shall meet the Zoning Code Ordinance No. 5607 November 16, 2001 Page t6 1-T~-__ requirements. The landscaped berm shall be constructed-and planted prior So occupancy of any building within the buslness park. 5. The exterior facades of aIl buildings shall be designed in a manner such that each building has a common design/architectural feature(s) so that all buildings will be compatible with one another. The design shall be generally consistent with the illustration tiUed "SEP01-0010, Elevation Rendering. ExhibiY". c> 6. A master sign plan shall be prepared that coordinates the exterior ~ ~ Q signs of the individual tenants. The architectural design of the tenants' logos ~ 0 ° are not intended to be altered by this condition. To avoid the appearance of a o 'strip commercial' development and to be consistent with the sign requirements N ; o of the SuperMall, the freestanding signs identifying the tenants that have N frontage on 15th Street shall be limited to 12 feet in height. If the sign is placed on the building side of the landscaped berm, then the sign may be increased by the height of the berm. Sign height shall be measured from the grade adjacent to the berm to the top of the sign or sign structure. 7. All exterior lighting shall be designed and constructed such that the direct illumination does not unreasonably "spill over" on adjoining property.
