Modification Report
Staff Comment: Per RMC 4-4-080F.9.d the width of the drive aisle width is
required to be 20-feet for 45° head-in parking using a two way circulation
pattern. The proposal for the removal of the 90° head in parking stalls along
the eastern façade of the restaurant would provide sufficient area for 7 of the
8 proposed diagonal parking stalls along Rainier Ave S if striped with “no
parking” signage. However, the most southerly stall proposed along the
eastern boundary of the site would not have adequate area to back out
irrespective of “no parking” signage. Therefore, staff recommends as a
condition of approval the applicant be required to submit a revised site plan
depicting: “no parking” striping and signage in place of the removed 90° head
in parking stalls depicted on Exhibit A and the removal of the southerly most
diagonal stall along Rainier Ave S. The revised site plan shall be submitted to,
and approved by, the Current Planning Project Manager, prior to building
permit approval.
Per RMC 4-4-070 landscaping shall be dispersed throughout the parking area
and shall include a mixture of trees, shrubs, and groundcover. The submittal
includes a depiction of new landscaping, along the eastern façade of the Super
Supplement retail building, consistent with existing landscaping. However, a
landscape plan was not provided with the submittal. Additionally there
appears to be an opportunity to provide landscaping in the area formerly used
for 90° head in parking stalls (approximately 12-feet in width). Therefore, staff
recommends the applicant submit a detailed landscaping plan depicting the
following: approximate type and location of existing vegetation, proposed
planting schedule, and an increase in the landscape island abutting the
restaurant according to Exhibit A. Landscaping may include hardscape such as
rock outcroppings, fountains, or plant containers. The landscape plan shall be
submitted to, and approved by, the Current Planning Project Manager prior to
building permit approval.
The adjustment does not change the boundaries of the originally approved
plan. X
