The existing north property line is required to have a minimum 5 foot wode planting strip outside the existing screem fence , planted with Lombardy Poplars 6-8 ' tall and 10 ' -12 ' on center . 2 . Where the north fence terminates on the west end, the 5 ' landscape strip could be set within the property line and continue to the west property line . 3. The restrictive covenants , dated January 28 , 1967 , require that "a planting strip of not less than five (5) feet in width shall be provided and maintained in conjunction with the view-obscuring fence .

Alternative #2 appears to be the most feasible - could possibly require relocation of spur track switch northwesterly of Sternoff ' s property .

GYE : wr Renton Planning Commission Meeting October 3 , 1973 Minutes - Page 3 No other comments were offered from the audience . Further discussion ensued among the Commissioners regarding the merit of studying this entire area . The Planning Director agreed that a study of all G zones throughout the City was desirable , including this one . After study the Planning Commission could recommend zoning . ACTION : IT WAS MOVED BY SCHOLES , SECONDED BY SEYMOUR , THAT THE BROWN APPLICATION BE CONTINUED UNTIL THE NEXT PUBLIC HEARING AND REFERRED TO THE ZONING COMMITTEE FOR STUDY AND REPORT BACK AT THAT TIME , INCLUDING ADJACENT PROPERTIES . The Planning Director noted that a study of this application , as well as adjacent properties , would involve a recommendation to the City Council and time allowance for their study and would result in an ap- proximate three to four month time lapse . He con- curred that the Committee should study the area ; but inasmuch as a substantial amount of time is indicated , the staff report indicating the proposal as compati - ble with a neighborhood- type shopping center should be considered .

The Chairman introduced the subject matter and asked for comments from the Planning Director. Renton Planning Commission Meeting October 3, 1973 Minutes - Page 4 Mr. Ericksen pointed out the property and the existing operation on the maps . He referred the Planning Commis- sion to the Planning Department' s letter of September 24th to Mr. Carl Sternoff defining the points that needed to be resolved regarding their application , copies of the staff report and the supplemental report regarding landscape re- quirements . The Planning Director noted that regarding the northern boundary it was originally intended that there should be a five foot planting strip outside the screening fence , to be planted with poplars , similar to the southern bound- ary line. Representatives of the Railroad agree that such screening is necessary. They are investigating the pos- sibility of making five feet of their property available to Sternoff. There may be a problem with- reference to a proposed future spur track ; therefore , Burlington engi - neers are presently studying this , and the staff is await- ing their reply . The staff is specifying replacement of trees along the southerly and easterly property lines , requesting that spacing be maintained and that provision be made for water- ing for survival . It is also recommended that a perform- ance bond be submitted for the installation and mainte- nance of landscaping for a three year period . The various points have been discussed with Mr. Carl Sternoff, and it is believed that he is in general agreement. The grounds have been largely cleared of stockpiling outside of fenced areas . Chairman Teegarden requested further information regard- ing the westerly boundary . The Planning Director stated that the original intent was that there be landscaping along this boundary . However , it is felt that it could be waived at this time due to the existing natural screen- ing . Chairman Teegarden confirmed with Mr. Ericksen that when development to the west occurs , the applicant will have to return to the Planning Commission for site plan approval . Discussion ensued regarding landscaping , specifically as to location on the exterior or interior of the fencing . The Planning Director noted that it is the staff' s opin- ion that the screening should be located on the exterior of the fence rather than the interior. The applicant has also agreed to complete the work along the east side and intends to hire a firm to complete all of the required landscaping . Commissioner Scholes raised the question of noise , vibra- tion , dust , etc. The Planning Director stated that the matter of air pollution comes under the jurisdiction of the Puget Sound Air Pollution Agency. Regarding the mat- ter of noise , performance standards are included in the MP ordinance . ROSS , SECONDED BY SEYMOUR, MOVED THAT THE PUBLIC HEARING BE CLOSED. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY .

Carl C . Sternoff Slernco Land Company 7201 East Marginal Way South Seattle , Washington 98108 RE : Site Approval Application No . SA-749-73 Dear Mr . Sternoff : As per our discussion on Friday , September 21 , 1973 , we are list- ing the points that this department feels should be resolved to assure the least amount of delay with respect to your present site approval application . All of these items should be familiar to you either as a result of our last discussion or from previous meetings pursuant to the subject application . These items are as follows : 1 . Applicant agrees to conduct a thorough and exhaustive cleanup of all stockpiling and debris outside the exist- ing site screening fence . 2 . Future stockpiling and outdoor storage must take place within a site screening fence as per the original re- strictive covenants . 3 . Applicant agrees to provide 8 ' site screening fence with poplar trees planted along the outside at 12 ' on center and 6 ' -8 ' high as planted around entire new site . 4 . Applicant agrees to provide poplar trees 12 ' on cen- ter , 6 ' -8 ' as planted along the entire eastern bound- ary of the existing facility . 5 . Applicant agrees to provide poplar trees at the same specifications along the remaining unlandscaped por- tion outside southern boundary of the existing facil - ity . 6 . Applicant agrees to provide the required fence and landscaping adjacent to the western boundary line of the existing facility. A performance bond in lieu of this requirement will be acceptable . 2 - 7. Interpretation of the covenants requires that the entire northern boundary line of the existing facil - ity be landscaped similar to the rest of the site . Due to the circumstances presented by (a ) the exist- ence of high voltage power lines just inside the fence , b ) the fence ' s location directly on the property line , and ( c ) the location of future railroad spur lines just north of this property line , the strict compliance with. those covenants becomes doubtful . You have mentioned that you might be able to landscape inside the fence along approximately the eastern one-fourth of this north line . This may be acceptable , but the final de- cision on this problem will be up to the Planning Com- mission . Another solution which we have discussed and would recommend is the lease or purchase of a 5 ' - 10 ' strip along this northern property line from the rail - road for the sole purpose of fulfilling this landscape requirement . 8. A maintenance bond or suitable maintenance contract must be provided for all landscaping . 9 . All landscaping work to be delayed would require a per- formance bond to assure its installation . 10 . The drainage plan for the new facility must be approved by the City Engineering Department . 11 . The maximum driveway width is 30 feet. 12 . Parking requirement = 12 spaces . These are our primary concerns . However , the Planning Commission may have additional questions at the time they review the appli - cation . I hope this has been of some assistance to you in fully understanding all of our concerns with respect to the subject ap- plication . If there are any further questions , please do not hesitate to contact this department. Very t my- 771( yo rs Michael L .

SP-734-73 ; special permit to con- struct a petroleum marketing plant in H- 1 zone ; property located approximately 1 /2 mile west of East Valley Highway , midway between Olympic Pipeline-Mobil Oil site and Longacres Race Track . Chairman Teegarden reminded the Commission that this request had been referred to the Community Services Committee and suggested that the study be continued and a report made at the September 26th hearing . Mr . Ericksen advised the Commission that the draft of Shell ' s Environmental Impact Statement was being revised in accordance with recommendations of the Planning Staff. However , communica- tion with Shell by the staff indicated that the revised EIS is not ready as of this date . The staff has advised Shell that they should be prepared to make their presentation at the Sep- tember 26th public hearing , as scheduled , and that any final action will have to be held pending the EIS . Humble commented that because Shell does not have the EIS to consider , the Commission as a whole will be unable to act until 30 days after submittal , if then . Seymour suggested that the public hearing should therefore be postponed from September 26th . Scholes was in agreement . It was the opinion of Chairman Tee- garden that the Commission could continue the hearing if desired on September 26th . Mr. Ericksen concurred that the hearing should be held on September 26th , as scheduled , in spite of the delay in receiving the revised EIS . 5, NEW PUBLIC HEARING ITEMS : ( For September 26th meeting ) REZONE : B . JAY E . HOLMES : Appl . R-743 ; request for rezone from G6000 to L- 1 , property located on Grady Way South between Lind and Seneca S . W . Mr . Ericksen described the application and pointed out the property location . He noted that the adjacent area was zoned L- 1 , and the property was developed in accordance with the old standards . However , the existing development is not in conformance with present standards ( fencing on property line , no screening or landscaping and signs that may be in excess of the sign ordinance ) . He advised that the area is indicated light industrial or M-P on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan . C, ADOLPH C . BROWN : Appl . R-747-73 ; request for rezone from G to B-1 , property located approximately 150 feet east of Park Ave . , North on N . 30th St . Mr. Ericksen described the application and pointed out the location of the property . He advised that the area had been previously zoned commercial while in King County but reverted to G zoning when annexed to the City . The Comprehensive Land Use Plan indicates the area as commercial . The proposed use is in accordance with former King County zoning and compati - ble with other uses in the area . Renton Planning Commission Meeting September 12 , 1973 Minutes - Page 4 At this point Mrs . Adolph C. Brown was recognized by V Chairman Teegarden . Mrs Brown presented some phamph- lets showing photographs of the type of building they plan to erect . The phamphlets were accepted by the Commission for study and to become a part of the ap- plication . SITE APPROVALS : D STERNOFF METALS CORP . ; Appi SA-744-73 ; site approval for multi -phase wire granulating system for recycling of industrial use copper and aluminum wire , property located on So . 180 St . The Sternoff application was presented by Chairman Tee- gardens with the request that approval be considered at this meeting . Two letters from the Sternoff 'Corpora- tion regarding their application and requesting early consideration were read by Mr. Ericksen . (Commissioner Seymour requested that copies of the two letters from the Sternoff Corporati on be distributed to the ` Planning Commission . ) Mr. Ericksen advised that while site ap- provals' do not require' public hearings , it has' been the practi ce that they be reviewed at public hearing meet- sings . The Planning Director stated that the site ( approximately 22 acres ) is adjacent to the present development , in an H- 1 zone . Proposed use is for a recycling processing j , plant for copper and aluminum wire . The property loca- tion was noted by Mr Ericksen , and slides of the pre-. sent development and proposed site were shown . He ad- vised that the restrictive covenants filed at the time of zoning require Planning Commission site plan review . The Commission was advised by the Planning Director that the applicant has agreed to screen off the area with poplar trees at 12 feet on center . Wik questioned the need for internal ,screening of the property, inas- much as this two acre site is only part of a master plan of 36 acres . It was pointed out by Chairman Tee- garden that the master plan may never be consummated , and therefore screening must be considered The Planning Director stated that the normal process is to require an environmental assessment to determine if an EIS is' ;requir..ed . The Planning staff feels that at this rime the EIS i•s ,not.`essential but that the Com- mission may ;have, some concerns on th'e subject . The applicant was informed :by.. staff that..:an..

He described the proposed operation and its economic impact on the area. The storage of materials outside of designated areas at the present development was attributed to strikes by steel mills for nine months . He stated that Sternoff would live up to the covenants "one hundred percent" and again requested early consideration . Ren :on Planning Commission Meeting September 12 , 1972 Minites - Page 5 Mr. Joseph Resnik , General Manager, Sternoff Metals Corpora- tion , also described the proposed operation . He informed the Commission that the shredding machine required would be located inside the building . The storage area will hold un- processed wire in coils or bales , with limited height ( ap- proximately four feet) . The building will be tilt wall and/or Butler type . Commissioner Seymour queried as to whether or not we can le- gally act on the Sternoff application at this time . Mr. Ericksen reiterated that site approvals do not require a public hearing . However , he noted that in the past the site has been posted and advertised for public information and handled in the same manner as a public hearing item. Chairman Teegarden requested further assurance that screen- ing plans would be accomplished . In response , Mr. Carl Sternoff stated that they are going to hire professional landscapers to take care of screening and will install a proper water system. Commissioner Seymour questioned the urgency of the situation and stated that she felt unprepared to make a decision at this time . With reference to screening , it was noted by Mr . Ericksen that the poplars are approximately 10-12 feet on center and that spacing of 10 feet was desirable . He noted that the oricinal intent was that the storage area be entirely screened by the poplar trees , and for this reason no height restriction was imposed . The Planning Director reviewed the H- 1 requirements as they relate to Sternoff for the Commission : Pulverizing of junk is allowed , when the operation can be fenced and screened ; no storage is allowed outside the fencing ; and all activity is to be carried on within the screened area . Landscaping was an additional requirement specified by the Commission . Discussion ensued as to how the Commission could encourage the applicant to follow through on its original commit- ments to upgrade the facility . Commissioner Humble sug- gested that a bond be required to insure that the trees are planted and also that they make sure that they grow. Commissioner Scholes asked when the original covenants were drawn up on the existing operation . Mr . Erickson requested a recess to allow him to obtain the file . A recess was called at 10 : 30 p . m . The meeting resumed at 10 : 35 p . m. As all members were noted to be present , roll was not called . Mr. Ericksen reviewed from the file on the existing opera- tion . It was noted as follows : application dated July 1966 ; approved by Planning Commission August 1966 ; cove- nants dated January 28 , 1967 . A site plan was submitted dated June 1 , 1966 , including a five foot planting strip around the periphery of the property and a planting strip to include planting of poplar trees 10 feet on center . Scholes inquired if the Planning Department had issued any written communication to Sternoff regarding their non- compliance with the covenants . Mr. Ericksen replied that the matter had been reviewed with the Building Department . Scholes requested a copy of restrictive covenants . Renton Planning Commission Meeting September 12 , 1972 Minutes - Page 6 Chairman Teegarden recognized Carlyle B . Jensen , archi - tect for the Sternoff Corporation , 1266 Mercer , Seattle , Washington . Mr. Jensen stated that in the past ten years he has designed many buildings for this type of property . He stated he feels that with trees around it , the proposed use would not be offensive . Following further discussion by the Commission , it was MOVED BY SCHOLES , SECONDED BY SEYMOUR , THAT THE STERN- OFF MATTER BE CONSIDERED ON SEPTEMBER 26 . MOTION CAR- RIED WITH LEMON DISSENTING . Chairman Teegarden noted to the Sternoff representa- tives that it is obvious that there are questions in the minds of the Commission . In view of the number of difficult items on that agenda , he suggested that they check with the Planning staff regarding their position on the agenda .

To initiate this action, we have placed full responsibility for enforcement of these covenants with our general manager. He is now aware of these requirements and will see that there will be no stockpiling of wrecked autos outside the site screening fences in the future. It should also be noted that since we were informed of this violation, all material outside of the fencing is being brought in. We will see to it that there will be sufficient maintenance of all landscaped areas. We will ask for bids on plantings and maintenance for the designated areas. The lack of landscaping on our northern and western boundaries are the result of several problems. We have underground utilities within five feet of the northern boundary, and Burlington Northern Railroad has indicated no interest in allowing us to plant trees on their property line. We will gladly take any recommendations that you people feel would be appropriate in resolving this problem. Continued) . . . .

As you know, this area will have to be filled and regraded for proper drainage to the west. Once this is accomplished, we would be willing to erect a fence and put in the necessary landscaping.

Contact: Mr. Allen Fternoff. The location of the proposed building is at this same address, and would be a new building in the existing complex of buildings to be used by the Sternoff Metals Company. The Fternoff Metals Co. is a scrap metal reclamation company at the present time employing approximately 50 employees on this site. By the enclusion of this project, they will increase this number by 10. Their work will consist of cut- ting scrap wire into small peices for shipment to smelters for reprocessing. The cost level of this business is approximately 1/2 million per year. The proposed building site is now a vacant lot that has had only weeds and grass as land cover. The property is essentially flat and needs land fill approximately 3' - 0" to bring it up to the level of surrounding property. There are no cultural, historical or scenic aspects related to this property. This property has a direct relationship to the commercial properties as zoned in this area as it will be centered inside now existing zoned property. The environmental impact on the area would be as follows: Land use - same as others in this area. Design Appearance - a commercial building that will be landscaped and screened by trees around all sides with trees as now existing in the area. Ground Contours - Land fill will bring the property up to the level of surrounding property. Air Quality - no effects are contemplated by the process of cutting wire with chopping machines. Water Quality - This process is not contingent upon the use of water and the run off water is handled through proper drainage. Therefore no effect is contemplated. Plant Life - This project will remove weeds and replace them with landscaping. Animal Life - no animal life exists on property at the present time. Natural Resorces - There are none upon the existing site, therefore, none will be effected. Population Density - This will have very little or no effect since only 10 employees will be added to the work forse and the proximity to freeways will not necessitate relocation to this area. Trans3oration - The increase on highways will not be significant since only the material that will be processed is not being proce f- ferent method. fr4 P ubli Use None; this is a private business.

The issuance of this permit is critical to us for the following reasons: The construction of this building is dependent upon favorable weather conditions. With the fall and winter months coming, it is imperative that we receive a building permit so that we can commence construction. Construction contracts have been let and are contingent upon the issuance of this permit. The machine to be placed on this site is packaged and ready to be shipped, but we are delaying shipment until the site is ready. Due to the energy crisis, there presently is a critical shortage of copper and aluminum recyclabe material. The completion of this facility will enable us to produce this material without burning, thus eliminating any adverse ecological pollutions. 01:,, Continued) . . . . c> pr n, 1/( o 19,3 z v tic D, '`c,, plant liquidators - brokers and dealers Q, PAR % in non-ferrous metals and steel scrap. e 4 City of Renton Planning Department Page Two September 7, 1973 We hope that our facility will be able to produce the volume necessary to aid in alleviating this critical shortage in the Pacific Northwest. Finally, the installation of this facility will provide additional revenues for local utility companies. Presently, they would have to market their materials outside of this area at a much reduced price. It should also be noted that this new facility will create a need for approximately fifteen new employees, based on a one-shift production line.

MEMORANDUM September 4 , 1973 TO : Files FROM: Mike Smith SUBJECT : Meeting with Mr. Sternoff Gordon Ericksen and I met today with Carl Sternoff and Allen Sternoff regarding the proposed addition to their existing facility . They expressed a need for expedi - ency in approving this proposed facility . They also presented a revised plan showing landscaping , lot lines , fence , new building , etc . They expressed a desire for an early hearing due to certain circumstances that have risen . We told them that we would upon receipt of a letter explain the situation to the Planning Commission Chairman and ask his opinion on this matter. However , we stated that the decision to allow any construction prior to the hearing or to allow an early hearing on the site approval application would be entirely up to the Commission or its chairman . Furthermore , the con- dition of the existing site with respect to the param- eters of the restrictive covenants would also be a determining factor in any decision .

Carl Sternoff Sterne() Land Co . 1600 SW 43rd St . Renton , Washington 98055 Regarding : Meeting with Allen Sternoff concerning site approval application for proposed facility . Dear Mr . Sternoff , This is to acknowledge the meeting on August 24 , 1973 with Mr . Allen Sternoff of your company . As stated during this discussion there are certain elements of the present Sternoff development in Renton which do not agree with the covenants and conditions set forth at the time that the property was rezoned , January 28 , 1967 . These include ; 1) Storage of materials and wrecked autos outside the site screening fence . 2) Absence of landscaping in conjunction with the fence . 3) Insufficient maintenance of landscape strip . 4 ) Site screening fence and lanscaping not provided along west property line . As stated during this discussion work will begin immediately on alleviating these areas of concern . This will surely assist you in your present request to enlarge your facility . Upon receipt of your application for site approval the Plannning Commission will be scheduling a field trip to the facility . This is a standard procedure which gives the Commission an opportunity to become more familiar with the various as- pects of each particular request . Necessary procedures and forms were given to Allen Sternoff during the meeting , which included various maps , deadline dates , and any other information needed to make the application clear and complete . He in turn indicated he would notify the architect of the need for additional detailed landscape plans , plot plan , and vicinity map . He also felt that a fence and landscaping around the proposed facility would be an acceptable addition to the plans . In addition it was mentioned that Federal and State Law may require that an Environmental Impact Statement be submitted for the proposed project . This would be determined after the application is submitted in full . r It is our feeling that issuance of a partial permit for the construction of the foundation of the proposed building is an acceptable request . This permit , however would be allowable with the applicants clear understanding that it is not a final approval of the proposed facility , and thus the applicant undertakes this work with the risk that it may be changed or altered as a result of subsequent Planning Commission review. Plans of sufficient detail for thorough review would also be needed prior to the granting of such a request . If you should have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact this department . Very trul yo r , s zie70!(. Michael L .
