PLANNING COMMISSION ADMINISTRATIVE MEETING
JUNE 12 , 1974
APPLICANT : Harold W. Hill ; Louis B . Rowley
West Valley Road
STAFF
RECOMMENDATIONS : Approve subject to the following
notations :
1. Staff approval of final landscaping
plans .
2 . Revised Landscape Plan, as submitted
by Lippold ' s Landscaping represents
the plant material compatible with
the Soil Conservation Service ' s
requirements . Note that the large
planter bed fronting the road and
the side areas indicate an under-
planting of Oregon Grape (to grow as
a massed shrub . )
3. A watering system is required for
all planter areas . A manual installed
head system is preferred, however, a
hose-bib system could be accepted due
to the character of plant material
that will adopt to native conditions .
4 . The side planter areas adjacent to
the north and south ends of building
to be landscaped as shown on revised
landscape plan to serve as mitigation
displaced by buildings and paving . Also
important to maintain quality of Manu-
facturing Park image anticipated for
future Valley development .
5 . Existing trees and vegetation should be
incorporated into plan, if at all
feasible . Some readjustment of southwest
parking area may be required to
incorporate large existing trees with-
in the parking layout (survey of site
would determine feasibility . )

ious action, noting that approval was recommended with re-
strictive covenants . The covenants were prepared and
checked for legality by the City Attorney, but the appli-
a4e indicated changes on the covenants that they feel
appropriate and request a return to the Commission to
present additional information for consideration. It was
noted that a new hearing, properly posted and advertised,
71 Id have to be taker into consideration in making the

life habitation to meet the Soil Conservation Service require-
ments.
The Planning Commission continued your application until
the June 12th Administrative Meeting. We need to meet with
you as soon as possible so to resolve this matter in order to

RE: Landscape Plan for Harold W. Hill and
Louis B. Rowley - West Valley Highway
I talked with Bob Olschewsky from Richard Bouillon and
Associates/Architects, per telephone, regarding the Planting
Design and materials.
He was informed ,that the planting areas were adequate,
however, a new planting design would be required because the
plan, as submitted, was inadequate to meet the Soil Conservation
Service's requirements.
The purpose of the S.C.S. landscape requirements are to
provide a wildlife refuge that includes a mixture of large and
small trees, shrubs and groundcover in sufficient quantities
to provide screening and nesting areas.
It was requested that a new landscape plan be submitted
for approval by .the Planning Department.
In addition, it was suggested that the existing vegetation
be inventoried and save as much as possible.

SUBJECT : Harold Hill & Louis Rowley Site Approval
I talked today with Bob Olchewsky of Boullion and
Associates , architects for the applicant. I informed
him that his landscape plan although having suitable
areas designated for landscaping , was deficient in
both quantity of material and type of material pro-
vided . I also informed him of the presence of many
suitable plant materials on site and that he should
make every effort to retain these in his final land-
scape plan . He indicated that he would do so . I
told him that our landscape architect would be con-
tacting him to discuss this matter further.
I also told him that certain ingress/egress problems
from West Valley Highway would have to be solved
through cooperation with the highway department .

Re: Shoreline Management Ju ction
Dear Art:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your Memo' received this date
regarding your two inquiries as to the resent effect of the proposed
Shoreline Master Program and the applica i ity of the Shoreline
Management Act to a proposed project by the Milwaukee Railroad.
As to the first question, it would be our opinion that the proposed
Master Program presently has no legal effect since it has to be
approved by the City Council. It is , of course , helpful as a •
guideline in the interim as to what the City would like to accomplish
but since the Planning Commission is merely an advisory body, this
program, without Council approval , does not have the force of law.
In addition, of course , any such Master Program, once adopted by
the. City, has to be submitted to the Department of Ecology for review
and approval) pursuant to RCW 90. 58. 090 , et seq.
Your second inquiry is an interesting one but the facts submitted
by you are somewhat sparse to permit us giving you a legal opinion.
You did not submit the total area under the owner's control , the
portion within jurisdiction of the Shoreline Management Act , the
distance from the 200 ' jurisdictional line to the proposed project, etc.
You also cite the case of Merkel v. Port of Brownsville , 8 Wn. App.
844(509 P. 2d 390(1973), which, of course , has to be limited to the
factual situation therein presented. Obviously , if the Railroad
plans to develop the totality of its property which would include
the area within the 2UU ' strip , then the City would have a right to
insist on compliance with the Shoreline Management Act , since the
owner should not escape such jurisdiction by making improvements
piecemeal. Likewise , if the owner' s plans indicate that there is
no present or future intent whatever to utilize any area within the
jurisdiction of the Act , including a substantial buffer zone ,
betweerf the proposed improvements , and the 200 ' line , then it would
be our conclusion that the Act is inapplicable to such a situation.
t
Page Two
Mr. Arthur D. Scholes
May 10 , 1974
As an example , if an owner controls a ten-acre tract and assuming
that a strip of 10 to 50 feet of said property is located within
the 200 feet area, and there is a definite commitment that no
improvements whatever would be made within the area subject to
jurisdiction, then it would be difficult to claim that the total
ten acre should be subject to such jurisdiction.
The term "wet lands" or "wetland areas'. as defined in the Act,
means those lands extending landward for 200 feet in all directions
as measured in a horizontal plane from the ordinary high water
mark. This appears to be the limit of jurisdiction in the given
case. If a different interpretation had been intended by the
Legislature, then undoubtedly it could have stated that any parcel
of land, regardless of size , would be subject to the jurisdiction
of the Act if any portion of said total area were located within
the 200 foot radius . The Act does not so express itself. The
purpose of the law is to control the shorelands of the State , as
well as certain rivers , streams , etc. as defined inthe Act , for
a distance of 200 feet from the ordinary high water mark as above
stated.
If you wish to submit to us any additional information regarding
this particular issue , please feel free to do so.
We remain,
V- truly yours ,
