SA-053-80 LOCATION: Vicinity of 1012 S.W. 41st Street. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant requests site approval for conversion of Building No. 4 of the Benaroya Business Park from warehouse to office use (approximately 68,400 square feet) . SUMMARY OF ACTION: Planning Department Recommendation: Approval with restrictive covenants. Hearing Examiner Decision: Approval with conditions: PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department preliminary report was received by the REPORT: Examiner on June 25, 1980. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and, surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on July 1 , 1980 at 9:30 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner. and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department report. Steve Munson, Planning Department, reviewed the report, and entered the following exhibits into the record: Exhibit #1 : Application File containing Planning Department report and other pertinent documents Exhibit #2: Site Plan as submitted Exhibit #3: Site Plan with staff comments Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding the parking requirement for Building No. 4 prior to the requested conversion, Mr. Munson advised that 40 to 45 spaces had been required, and conversion to office use would require 342 spaces or an approximate 300 stall increase. Mr. Munson advised receipt of two memoranda from the Public Works Department regarding a recommendation for removal of driveways not currently utilized, and replacement with curbs, gutters and sidewalks with remaining driveways to be marked and signed for fire access. The letters were labeled as follows by the Examiner: Exhibit #4: Letter to Planning. Department from Don Monaghan, Engineering Department, dated June 12, 1980 Exhibit #5: Letter to Planning Department from Paul Lumbert , Traffic Engineering Division, dated June 30, 1980 Roger Blaylock, 'Associate Planner, clarified requirements of the Traffic Engineering Division for installation of traffic signals as denoted in Section L.6 of the Planning Department report. He advised that the intersection of Lind Avenue S.W. and S.W. 41st Street will be impacted by increased traffic due to additional employment in the area, and the Traffic Engineering Division has requested that the applicant participate in funding for signalization of that intersection at an appropriate future date. Mr. Blaylock requested that the record remain open to allow submission or written confirmation of the request from the Public Works Director. He stated that preliminary estimates indicate that the applicant 's participation would be 25% of the total cost , and a representative of the Traffic Engineering Division would testify regarding the matter later in the hearing. 11111111SA _3-80 Page Two The Examiner requested clarification of the requirement contained in Section M. 1 of the report, which pertains to accumulated numbering of individual parking spaces on the sit ..' plan. Mr. Munson indicated that although proposed stalls had been counted several time: _ on the submitted site plans to arrive at the estimated 1641 traffic spaces, an exact number could be established by consecutively numbering the stalls on the plan. The Examiner inquired if the possibility exists to provide the required number of parking spaces if the building is converted to office use. Mr. Munson advised that based upon the estimated count, a shortage of 15 spaces exists. The Examiner inquired, regarding the square footage the stall shortage represents in office space. Mr. Munson indicated that 3,000 square feet is represented. The Examiner noted that during previous site review, 300 surplus parking spaces were provided which may mitigate the current shortage, and inquired regarding current maximum utilization of existing parking spaces . Mr. Blaylock indicated that Buildings No. 1 and 2, leased by the Boeing Company, serve as large storage facilities utilizing few employees, and the entire parking lot adjacent to those buildings is vacant a majority of the time. However, he noted that reduction of the required number of spaces isla matter for review by the Board of Adjustment following request for a variance of the ordinance requirements. The Examiner requested clarification of the number of excess parking spaces over the requirement which existed prior to review of the subject application. Mr. Blaylock advised that 117 surplus parking spaces exist. He also indicated that reversion of the buildings to their original warehouse use would require evaluation off parking requirements of the entire site. The Examiner requested testimony by the applicant. Responding was: Joel Benoliel Jack Benaroya Company 5950 6th Avenue S. ' Seattle, WA 98108 Mr. Benoliell'Ibriefly reviewed development of the site since 1978,, and noted the original intent of th'e business park for a speculative warehouse, multi -tenant project, utilizing approximately 5% of the buildings for office use. However, he advised that due to a critical need for additional office space by the Boeing Company, leasing of the entire business park facility by that company has occurred. An overall review and redesign of the parking area has occurred including provision of striping to meet strict ordinance requirements', he indicated, and according to analysis by the Boeing Company, parking areas will not be fully utilized due to employee carpools and ownership of compact cars . Mr. Benoliel requested the opportunity to review and comment regarding the letters from the Public Works Department, as well as additional correspondence from the Public Works Director upon receipt. The Examiner' requested testimony from a representative of the Traffic Engineering Division regarding requirement of installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of S.W. 41st Street and Lind Avenue S.W. Responding was: Paul Lumbert Traffic Engineering Division Mr. Lumbert stated that a result of the conversions which have occurred in the business complex, traffic flow at the intersection of 41st and Lind would be substantially impacted which would require signalization in the near future, and the developer should participate in the amount of 25% of the total cost of the project. The Examiner inquired if the 25% participation would be in addition to the existing Lind Avenue S.W. LID. Mr. Lumbert responsed affirmatively. Mr. Lumbert also advised that the traffic signalization project at S.W. 43rd Street and Lind will occur in the. fall of 1980, and an additional project at 43rd and Valley Parkway is scheduled for 1981 which will be funded partially by LID, and supplemented by federal and state funding. The Examiner inquired regarding proposed impact on the East alley Freeway on the west side of the project . Mr. Lumbert stated that the signal at S.W. 43rd Street will mitigate traffic problems in the area in the immediate future, although at a later date upon full development of Valley Parkway, traffic impacts could occur to justify additional signalization. The Examiner requested clarification of the recommendations contained in Exhibits #4 and 5 regarding closure of unutilized driveways and subsequent installation of curbs , gutters and sidewalks. Mr. Lumbert reviewed the intent of the recommendation. Responding to the recommendation of the Traffic Engineering Division for installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Lind Avenue S.W. and S .W. 41st Street, Mr. Benoliel advised that the subject intersection is the nearest intersection in the entire 500 acre Burlington Northern Industrial Park in proximity to the freeway exit, and may warrant signalization due to heavy traffic. However, he felt it was inconceivable that conversion of a 68,400 square foot building to office use would justify requiring 25% SA 3-80 Page Three I participation of the applicant in provision of that traffic signal . Had participation been determined upon front footage as was the Lind project, the applicant 's share would be approximately 5%, he advised, and the proposed signal may have, in fact, been excluded ii from the Lind project as a cost factor and added at this time as the responsibility of the applicant. Mr. Benoliel requested that comment be reserved until receipt of the memorandum from Mr. Gonnason, Public Works Director. The Examiner advised that the hearing would not be held open for receipt of the letter since clarifying testimony had been entered• by Mr. Lumbert. Mr. Benoliel reviewed the final recommendations contained in the Planning Department report as follows: . concurrence in Conditions No. 1 and 2 regarding provision of numbering .on, the site plan and inclusion of nine additional parking stalls; objection to Condition No. 3 which requires developer participation in any future traffic signal requirements; and concurrence 'in Condition No. 4 regarding execution of restrictive covenants to ensure conversion of the 12,000 square feet of office use to storage if the railroad tracks are activated. 'He concurred in the analysis that all available parking space has been utilized in the development. Although Mr. Benoliel concurred in the recommendation for provision of signing of driveways for emergency access, he objected to closing unused driveways by provision of curbs, gutters and sidewalks which he felt was a needless expense since reversion to driveways may occur in the future. The Examiner requested testimony in support or opposition to the application. There was no response.' He then requested final comments from the Traffic Engineering Division representative. Mr. Lumbert clarified that unutilized driveways create problems resulting from vehicles turning around and parking in those locations which interferes with pedestrian and bicycle access. The Examiner, requested final comments from the Planning Department representative. Mr. Blaylock reiterated previous comments regarding review of the entire site plan and accessory parking upon release of any of the buildings by the Boeing Company or any requests for building permits. He also modified Condition No. M.3 of the Planning Department report to suggest that restrictive covenants be executed to require future participation of the applicant in an LID for traffic signalization, but eliminate the specific percentage of participation. Mr. Benoliel objected to enforcement of the condition in the form of restrictive covenants, and advised that participation in an LID is automatically required of all property owners without need for the legal document. Mr. Blaylock stated his intent to preclude the applicant from being assessed a specific percentage of participation, but the Environmental Impact Statement had been issued subject to conditions to mitigate traffic impacts resulting from the development, and assurance of participation is necessary. He noted that the LID process allows the opportunity for objection during formulation of cost distribution even if restrictive covenants have been filed. The Examiner: requested further. comments. Since there were none, the hearing regarding File No. SA-053-80 was closed by the Examiner at 10:22 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION: Having reviewed the record in this matter., the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1 . The request is for approval of site plans for the conversion of a 68,400 square foot warehouse to office space. 2. The application file containing the application, SEPA documentation, the Planning Department report, and other pertinent documents was entered into the record as Exhibit 1 . 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , R.C.W. 43.21 .C. , as amended, a Declaration of Non-Significance has been issued for the subject proposal by the Environmental Review Committee, responsible official . 4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development. 5. All existing utilities are available and in close proximity. 6. The proposal is compatible with the required setbacks, lot coverage and height requirements of Section 4-730 (M-P; Manufacturing Park) of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General Ordinances. 7. The subject property is located in the Orillia Industrial area of the city in the vicinity of S.W. 41st Street. i SA-Gw-80 Page Four 8. The subject site is level and is currently occupied by the subject warehouse and other warehouIses and offices as well as the associated parking lots. 9. The conversion of the warehouse to office space will occur within the existing structure and the external appearance will generally remain unchanged. The conversion will necessitate a larger parking area. The existing uses require approximately 1 ,650 parking spaces. While a precise count is unavailable, approximately 1 ,641 spaces are provided. 10. The conversion of the existing warehouse will require one parking space per 200 square feet of floor space or 342 spaces. The warehouse required 46 parking spaces. Therefore, the' applicant must provide an additional 296 parking spaces. 11 . The conversion will require most of the remaining unused space in the complex to be used fIr parking, precluding further such conversions. 12. The traffic analysis of the proposal indicates that approximately 800 additionalYPPPPY vehicle trips will be generated by the complex after conversion. This will increase the traffic load on adjacent roadways by about 25% at this time. This figure represents the current conditions and does not reflect the potential traffic which may beIlgenerated when the entire 500 acres are occupied. The applicant 's contribution may be less than 5% of the total . 13. As indicated above, existing development of the site and the proposed conversion will constrain any further development or conversions. The activation of the existing railroad spur would eliminate additional parking stalls which would necessitate a shrinkage of the floor space of the complex. Such activation or further conversion will again have to be subject to further site plan review. 14. The Traffic Engineering Division recommended the closure of the excess and unnecessary driveways because of hazards to pedestrians, bicycles and vehicles. 15. Certain existing parking spaces indicated on Exhibit #3 do not meet city standards. CONCLUSION : 1 . The plans submitted by the applicant meet the requirements of the M-P zone in which the subject building is located., The plans indicate the use is compatible with the objectives and goals of the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan for an integrated manufacturing park. 2. The conversion will not affect the exterior treatment of the structure in any sizable manner. The site appears to have the capacity to provide the number of parking spaces required by the conversions. 3. An accurate account of the total number of parking spaces is lacking, and sequential numbering of stalls would provide this information. 4. The applicant should eliminate any unnecessary driveways, as false turning movements can jeopardize the public health and safety as vehicles back out of closed off driveways across sidewalks, bike paths and into traffic lanes . 5. The anticipated additional traffic generated by this proposal may, in fact, create 25% greater demand than this site previously generated, but in relation to the total traffic demand generated by the eventual occupation of the entire industrial park, the increase is slight. The intersection of S.W. 41st Street is, in fact, the S.W. 43rd Street exit from the East Valley freeway, and the applicant will not substantially add to the load which normal growth of the area is anticipated to generate. When an LID is formed to provide additional signalization of the intersection, the applicant can be included as is routine in such matters. DECISION: ' Exhibit #3 , is approved subject to: 1 . Installation of curbs , gutters and sidewalks to replace closed driveways subject to approval of the Public Works Department. 1 2. Sequential numbering of all parking stalls on the site. 3. Elimination of the nine non-standard parking spaces. 4. Provision of the correct number of parking stalls as determined by the Planning Department. I I 1 s SA-053-80 Page Five 5.

Traffic: Conversion of the structure to office use will result in 800 additional vehicle trips per day to the subject site. This increase in traffic was deemed to be a significant increase which can be mitigated by improvements to S.W. 43rd. J. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION: Pursuant to the City of Renton Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, as amended , RCW 43-21C, the Environmental Review Committee issued a declaration of non-significance on June 16, 1980 subject to developer participation in improvements to S .W. 43rd Street to mitigate the adverse traffic impacts identified in I-5 above. K . AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED : 1 . City of Renton Building Division . . 2 . City of Renton Engineering Division. 3. City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division . 4. City of Renton Utilities Division. 5 . City of Renton Fire Department . L . PLANNING. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS : 1 . The proposal is consistent with the M-P zoning and Comprehensive Plan designation of Manufacturing Park for the subject site . 2 . The proposal is to convert the 68, 500 square foot warehousing use of Building #4 of. the Benaroya Business Park to total office use . The existing building is a permanent structure and the proposed conversion is a major modification of the approved site plan. Therefore, a new site approval is required. The proposed coversion will double the amount of office use on the property as compared to the original approval . 3. Parking requirements for Buildings 1-7 of the complex can be summarized as follows : BUILDING PARKING REQUIRED I . (a ) Storage 359,938 sq. ft. 240 spaces b) Office 11 ,132 sq . ft. 56 spaces 296 spaces II . (a) Storage 220,158 sq. ft. 14.7 .spaces b) Shops 209, 661 sq. ft. 142 spaces c) Office 12, 264 sq. ft. 61 spaces d) Dispatch 320 sq. ft . 2 spaces 352 spaces , III . (a) Storage 179,124 sq. ft. 119 spaces b) Shops 188, 476 sq. ft. 188 spaces c) Office 2,024 sq . ft. 32 spaces 339 spaces IV.

(a) Storage 75,576 sq. ft . 50 spaces b) Office 624 sq . ft . 3 spaces 53 spaces 1656 spaces required ] 4. Staff computations of parking spaces shwon on the submitted site plan indicate that 1641 legal spaces have been provied (9 have been removed as unaccountable under the standards of the Parking & Loading Ordinance) . This leaves a discrepancy of 15 spaces . 5 . In the original site plan approvals , the maximum office space indicated was 5% of the building area. The planned conversion of this application to office use results in a total of 136, 260 square feet being utlized for this purpose . This represents 9 . 7% of the 1 , 406, 710 square feet contained in the overall complex . This increase would result in a 94% increase in traffic volume for office use based upon 11 .7 vehicle trips per day per 1 ,000 sq . ft . of gross floor area (823 trips per day at 5%) (1594 trips per day at 9 .7%) . 6. The Traffic Engineering Division advises that S .W. 43rd Street will. be improved as an Urban Arterial Board project commencing in the fall of1980 with completion anticipated in 1982. As part of this , traffic signals will be installed at S.W. 43rd and Lind Avenue S.W. and at S .W. 43rd and the Valley Parkway about fall of 1981 . The cost of any future traffic signal requirements in this area will be proportionally shared by individual property developers . The declaration of non-significance issued by the ERC required participation by the applicant as mitigation of the traffic impacts of #5 above. 7. If the railroad spur extending north from Building 1 to Building #4 is activated, 49 parking spaces will be eliminated . In order to meet the standards of the Parking & Loading Ordinance , therefore , approximately 12,000 sq . ft . of office use will have to be converted to storage. 8 . The proper number of exits for change in use will be required as well as fire lanes as per Fire Dept . comment . A pre-use conference with the Fire Marshall is also necessary . 9. In the review of the area remaining on the site it would appear that there is little opportunity for providing any additional parking within the development . Based upon this analysis , it would appear that no additional conversions of the floor space can occur to office or similar intensityofuse. PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING : BENAROYA CO . , SA-053-80 JULY 1, 1980 PAGE FIVE M. DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the foregoing analysis, recommend approval of the site plan subject to: 1 . Accumulated numbering of individual parking spaces on the site plan to determine compliance with parking standards . 2 . Revision of site plan to include 9 additional parking stalls per #4. 3. Developer participation in any future traffic signal requirements. as per #6 and the declaration of non- significance. 4. A restrictive covenant providing for conversionofthe12,000 sq. ft . of office use to storage if the railroad tracks are activated. 1li BENAROYA SITE APPROVAL SA-053-80 4 yea Ii.: 15 LWIIl _ NIT, , 1 C . .

The Act also requires that an EIS be prepared for all major actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to help the agencies involved determine whether or not a proposal is such a major action. Please answer the following questions as completely as you can with the information presently available to you. Where explanations of your answers are required, or where you believe an explanation would be helpful to government decision makers , include your explanation in the space provided, or use additional pages if necessary. You should include references to any reports or studies of which you are aware and which are rele- vant to the answers you provide. Complete answers to these questions now will help all agencies involved with your proposal to undertake the required environmental review with- out unnecessary delay. The following questions apply to your total proposal , not just to the license for which you are currently applying or the proposal for which approval is sought. Your answers should include the impacts which will be caused by your proposal when it is completed, even though completion may not occur until sometime in the future. This will allow all of the agencies which will be involved to complete their environmental review now, with- out duplicating paperwork in the future. NOTE: This is a standard form being used by all state and local agencies in the- State of Washington for various types of proposals . Many of the questions may no.t apply to your proposal . If a question does not apply, just answer it "no" and continue on to the next question. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST FORM I. BACKGROUND 1. Name of Proponent Jack A.
