The phasing plan must be on a site ?lan (one or more sheets) and must show the improvements that will be constructed with each phase. The Ciry will review the phasing plan to ensure that adequate access, parking, landscaping, utilitiet, stormwater facilities, etc. are provided with each phase. 8 copies of the phasing plan will be required to expedite review by the Public VVorks, Building, Fire and Planning Departments. I i Phasing associared with new activities on the site should be addressed in the new SEPA application. 3. After our last meeting, we reviewed the proQosed portable structures and the Sprung structure. The proposed buildings do not meet the standards for the area as set forth in the Seaway Center Master Plan, or in the M-1 section of the Zoning Code. The Seaway Center Master plan states, • Buildings shall be sited and designed to assure architectural compatibility with the surrounding buildings and the environment. • Building design is encouraged to be architecturally pleasing with a visual variety of materials, fa�ade modulation, and detail • Buildings with facades greater than 60 feet in length shall provide architectural modulation. Special landscaping treatment which creates a visual break in the building fa�ade shall be rcyuired on all blank building facades whicli arc in excess of 40 feet. • HVAC equipment placed on roofs, facades or external to the building shall be architecturally screened and not seen from the exterior of the building. • The maximum building hcight for buildings located between 130 feet and 175 feet from any designated residential area shall be 35 feet. Both the Seaway Center Master Plan and the M-1 section of the Zoning Code require that the Planning Director approve the building rype and exterior building finish for buildings located within 300 feet of residentially zoned properties. As :liscussed with Gary Parkinson, the portabfes and the Sprung structure proposed do not meet the requirements listed above. The buildings do not meet the modulation requirements of the Code and are not architecturally compatible with other buildings in the area. There may be other manufactured buildings available on the market that can meet your needs and the requirements listed above. We recommend that you propose structures that meet the modulation requirements in the Seaway Center Master Plan and that are architecturally compatible with other buildings in the area. A Buildina
