ments . Mr . Stern indicated concern regarding the reduction

he had been asked to represent his neighbors in speaking in
opposition. to the proposed rezone . He stated they are opposed
for two reasons : this rezone would have a long-term detri -
mental effect on the surrounding properties , and the sub-
dividing of the property into a pipestem lot is not good
planning and/or land use . He described the area as very
unique due to its country-like character and the only section
in that neighborhood which has been developed in accordance
with its zoning . Concern was expressed regarding a possible
domino effect should the proposal be approved , resulting
traffic on three sides , increased density in the area , and
depreciation of property values . The provision for access

denial. was presented .

RE : APPLICATION FOR REZONE - #R-882-76
Dear Mr. Peterson :
The Planning Commission at its September 9, 1976 public hearing
denied your application for, rezone of the property located at
762 Monroe Avenue. N. E . The Commission , after consideration of
the facts of the proposal , determined that the request was not
compatible with surrounding land uses , and that further subdivi -
sion . of the property would be detrimental to adjacent properties
and the unique character of the area .
You have the option of requesting to the City Council an appeal
of 'this ruling within ten ('10) days from the date of the ruling .
Such an appeal must be submitted in writing to the Planning Depart-
ment.
If you have further questions , please contact this Department .

Very truly yours ,

location of his driveway to the proposed rear parcel . He was
advised of the GS-1 definition by the Planning Director, who
noted that the proposal for the driveway does meet require-
ments . Mr . Stern indicated concern regarding the reduction
of the lot sizes and objected to the planned location of the
; driveway to the back lot.
, Michael Smith , 3402 N . E . Seventh Street , Renton , noted that
he had been asked to represent his neighbors in speaking in
opposition to the proposed rezone . He stated they are opposed
for two reasons : this rezone would have a long-term detri -
mental effect on the surrounding properties , and the sub-
dividing of the property into a pipestem lot is not good
planning and/or land use . , He described the area as very
unique due to its country-like character and the only section
in that neighborhood which has been developed in accordance
with its zoning . Concern was expressed regarding a possible
domino effect should the proposal be approved , resulting
traffic on three sides , increased density in the area , and
depreciation of property values . The provision for access
was also questioned . A petition containing 15 names urging
denial was presented .
Questions of Smith by the Commissioners followed relative to
lot sizes in the immediate vicinity , the quality of utilities
in the area , and the number of people present in opposition .

7 WAIVER OF OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS ;
C, HAROLD P . PETERSON ; Appl . No . W-883-76 ; Application for
1laiver of Off-site Improvements for a Two' Lot Short Plat ;

denial of the rezone request upon this application. IT WAS
THEN
ACTION:

REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS BE CONTINUED .
