Dear Sir: The Renton Planning Commission at its July 24 , 1974 Public Hearing reviewed the abovementioned petition for rezone and denied it for the following reasons : 1. Proposal is incompatible with the exist- ing Comprehensive Plan and an extension of the commercial category would not seem reasonable in this area. 2. Proposal is incompatible with anticipated land uses in the area including the pro- posed King County Park. 3 . Rezoning of the property as proposed would create a small island of land remaining in the G-9600 zoning classification. 4.

MOTION CAR- RIED UNANIMOUSLY. REZONE: (13, G . V . R. , Inc . ; Appl . R-778-74; rezone from G9600 to B-1 ; property located on Jones Ave . N . E . south of the Production Co. and Weichmann Enterprises . Chairman Teegarden requested a description of the application from the Planning Director . Mr . Ericksen pointed out the 1 . 2 acre site located in the May' Creek Valley area on the vicinity map . He indicated the B-1 zoned area contiguous to the property to the north and west and noted that a G-zoned island of land would be created , should the request be granted . The applicant has been advised of the apparent conflict his request presents , since the Comprehensive Land Use Plan indicates the area as medium density multiple fam- ily. The Planning Director advised that present usage is a contrac- tor ' s office , shop and storage facility and observed that it is not an acceptable use in the present G-9600 zone . Noting that the request falls under Shoreline Management jurisdiction , he indicated that the site is in an area where the matter of con- flict between the Shoreline Master Program and existing zoning is being reviewed by the Comprehensive Plan Committee . Aerial photographs and slides were viewed , and the relation- ship of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan to the property was noted . The Chairman called for comment from the applicant , but there was no response . Ross requested that the report from the Comprehensive Plan Committee regarding its study of the area be made available prior to any action by the Commission . Humble advised that he was unable to provide a date for report in view of current involvement of the committee in extensive meetings and study of possible amendments to the Comprehensive Plan in the Green River Valley and Hospital area . The Chairman recognized Mrs . Helen Schei , 4108 Jones Ave . N . E . , owner of property north of the site , who stated that she had brought the matter to the attention of the Building Division and Planning Department. She questioned the type of use in a B- 1 zone. It was indicated by Assistant Planner Smith that the matter was being reviewed by the Building Division and the City Attorney , as well as the Planning Department . Discussion ensued regarding appropriateness of present use in a B-1 zone. It was then MOVED BY MOLA , SECONDED BY WIK, THAT THE PUBLIC HEARING BE CLOSED . MOTION CARRIED . ACTION: MOVED BY GIBSON, SECONDED BY SEYMOUR THAT THE APPLICATION BY G.V.R. , INC. FOR REZONE FROM G9600 TO B-I BE DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: Renton Planning Commission Meeting July 24 , 1974 Page Eight 1 . PROPOSAL IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE EXISTING COM- PREHENSIVE PLAN AND AN EXTENSION OF THE COMMER- CIAL CATEGORY WOULD NOT SEEM REASONABLE IN THIS AREA . 2. PROPOSAL IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH ANTICIPATED LAND USES IN THE AREA INCLUDING THE PROPOSED KING COUNTY PARK. 3. REZONING OF THE PROPERTY AS PROPOSED WOULD CREATE A SMALL ISLAND OF LAND REMAINING IN THE G-9600 ZONING CATEGORY. 4 . THE PROPOSAL WOULD TEND TO FURTHER THE ESTABLISH- MENT OF A STRIP-TYPE COMMERCIAL ZONE ALONG JONES AVE. N.E. 5. GRANTING OF THE PROPOSAL WOULD ELIMINATE THE AREA ON THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN DESIGNA- TED AS MEDIUM DENSITY MULTIPLE-FAMILY WHICH WAS MEANT TO POSSIBLY ACT AS A BUFFER BETWEEN THE HIGHER AND LOWER DENSITY LAND USES. It was noted that the .request was not in agreement with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan . On the question , MOTION CARRIED . Responding to Gibson , the Planning Director indicated that the applicant will be advised of Commission action , the reasons , and his right of appeal . SPECIAL PERMIT - SITE APPROVAL C, PUGET SOUND POWER & LIGHT CO . ; Appl . No . SP-780-74 , special permit to allow filling and grading in G zone; Appl . No . SA-781-74 site approval for overhead to underground electric transmission terminal station ; property located 150 ' north of Strander Blvd . bridge and 450 ' east of West Valley Highway and southwest of Longacres Race Track . Noting that Puget Sound Power and Light Company is apply- ing for both a special permit to fill and site approval , the Chairman requested background information from the Planning Director . SPECIAL PERMIT Mr. Ericksen pointed out the 9600 square foot site on the map and indicated significant development in the vicinity. Approximately two to three feet of fill , or 2300 cubic yards , are planned . It is the opinion of the staff that in terms of environmental impact , the proposed filling and grading constitutes a negative declaration of impact . SITE APPROVAL The site plan was displayed and described by the Plan- ning Director . The proposal is for construction of a substation enclosed by a cyclone fence . Landscape screening will be provided . The existing access road v, . /// , Renton Planning Commission Meeting July 10 , 1974 Page Four by other municipalities to the west and' south . It was noted that development of the Scarsella site can commence while the impact statement is in process and being prepared . The Chairman invited comment from the applicant. Mr. Alan Austin , lawyer representing Scarsella Brothers , stated that Mr: Scarsella wished to fill the property so he can use the entire site and have the availability of the railroad trackage . The smaller site development plan had not been considered , but the matter will be review- - ed with Mr. Scarsella ; and an amended plan will be submitted if it is deemed appropriate . The applicant hopes to fill the site during the summer while he has the material and the weather is favorable . He stated that they would cooperate in the preparation of an EIS . Noting the damage occurs when filling a site , Mr. Teegarden said he felt the Commission should seriously consider the implications and investigate alternatives . He then requested comment from the audience but received none . ACTION MOVED BY WIK, SECONDED BY HUMBLE, THAT ACTION ON THE REQUEST TO FILL BE CONTINUED UNTIL THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT IS AVAILABLE. Discussion followed regarding the availability of the EIS in order to give the applicant an indication of Planning Commission action . Noting state requirements , the Planning Director stated that a minimum of three of four months would be necessary before a final EIS could be provided . Commissioner Ross stated he intended to vote against the motion , as he did not consider the request for continuance valid. On the question , MOTION CARRIED, ROSS DESSENTING. 4- PUBLIC HEARING ITEMS FOR MEETING OF JULY 24, 1974: The Planning Director reviewed the following new items of business , displayed site and vicinity maps and described filling and landscaping plans where pertinent . It was noted that the Shell Oil Company application for special permit to construct a petroleum marketing plant in H- 1 zone , a continued item, will also be considered. FINAL PLAT APPLICATION A. CRESENT VIEW ADDITION; Appl . FP-770-74 ; applica- tion for final plat approval ; property Ioc d on N. E . 16th St. and Kennewick Ave . N . E . The Planning Director noted that this final plat conforms to the preliminary plat plan previously approved and has been constructed in accordance with the Subdivision Ordi - nance . REZONE: - B. G.V.R. INC.;Appl . R-778-74; rezone from G9600 to B- 1 ; property located on Jones Ave . N . E . south of the Pro- duction Co . and Weichmann Enterprises . 4 Renton Planning Commission Meeting July 10 , 1974 Page Three 2 . The filling and development of properties in this area as presently being undertaken on a piecemeal basis could result in significant impact on adjacent properties and possibly place the City in liability if filling and development were not properly conducted due to water displacement and runoff to adjacent properties . 3 . The significance of filling the ponding area and its loss as a wildlife habitat is unknown in terms of the immediate and longrange effects . If the ponding area is filled , alternatives should be reviewed and recommendations made to Soil Conservation Service . 4. There is a significant need for a coordinated approach in the development of said property and adjacent areas in terms of a total concept which would meet the requirements of the Soil Conserva- tion Service Green River Drainage Plan . Mr. Ericksen advised that the City Council is considering the adoption of a resolution to concur in the Soil Conser- vation Service proposed Green River Drainage Plan . He stated that in view of the pending adoption of a resolution by City of Renton , the staff felt it was necessary that an EIS be prepared and that all of the questions be addressed . Staff recommendation for partial development of the prop- erty was noted by the Planning Director , who stated that the site included 2 . 3± acres , or 100 , 000± square feet of filled area in the westerly end ( total area 5 . 8 acres less 3 acres of pond and . 5 acre in NE corner) . He described the proposed site development plan , which includes 1500 sq . ft. for the office , 14 , 000 sq . ft. for the warehouse , and 7500 sq . ft . for parking .

Gonnason , Public Works Director, that an environmental impact statement be required for Olympic Pipe Line ' s proposal , the Chairman noted that Mr. Gon- nason was present to make his response . Mr. Gonnason advised that the permit that the City would be issuing in connection with. the franchise itself for the pipeline merely covers public rights-of-way within the City. The permit gives the Company the right , subject to City regulation , to install their petroleum pipeline facilities within the public rights-of-way of the City . Responding to the concern of the Planning Commission re- garding the potential impact of a terminus being located within the City of Renton , Mr. Gonnason indicated that while he recognized that there could be substantial impact effects from such development , Olympic Pipe Line does not actually have a terminus in the City of Renton . . Transfer. of products through pipelines continues to other areas . In addition , he stated that the matter of poten- tial impact does not pertain directly to this application and that any spinoff impacts , such as petroleum trucking , terminal stations , tanks , etc . , should be treated on their own merits and governed by whatever land use considerations are involved . He indicated that the City Council , through its Community Services Committee , had worked with Olympic and had mitigated a lot of what they considered impacts within the City itself. Discussion followed with Commissioner Humble stating that Olympic had informed Commissioner Scholes , Planning Com- mission Community Services Committee Chairman , that, the pipeline would not continue on to Portland . Mr. Gonnason replied that the Company proposes an operation for, two "lines to Renton and that the existing line goes to Portland now.

Further discussion ensued regarding• the location of the Olympic facility in Renton and safety provisions for the • pipeline. The Planning Director noted that all areas of potential points of danger have specified valve locations . Responding to Commissioner Wik ' s comment that the Planning Commission Community Services Committee had looked upon the matter from the impact that might evolve from the whole network , Mr . Gonnason said that from some points of view the impact of using a pipeline is less than other • • G . V . R. INC . I'ANTING CON-II:A(''iOI:', PHONE: (ZUti) Z2b-i7U3 A0I(, JONES AVE.
