to provide security for the residents of the apartments. The requirement to locate lights a minimum of 15 feet from the property lines and to require that lights be directed away from adjacent single family properties should minimize excessive light and glare as directed in the adopted SEPA policies. 8. The emissions from the additional vehicle trips generated by this proposal should not significantly impact air quality in the area. 9. The major impact of the increased traffic from this project will be delays to residents of the area, both entering and exiting from 19th Avenue S.E. When the signal is warranted and permitted by the State Department of Transportation, traffic conditions will improve. The conditions placed on the Mitigated DNS are based upon an area-wide traffic study and are sufficient to mitigate the significant adverse impacts of this development. 10. The potential L.I.D. for street improvements to 19th Ave. S.E. will be subject to a future SEPA review and public hearing process prior to its approval. Street improvements will be provided, either by the developer or through an L.I.D. These conditions are adequate to mitigate the impacts of the proposed development. There will be an increased demand for all public services, however, those impacts will be significantly mitigated by the increase in taxes paid by the developer. Adequate fire, police and school district capacity is currently available to serve this development. 11. The site plan presented to the City Council shows 25 foot setbacks on the north and south boundary lines and a 15 foot setback on the east boundary line. The 25 foot setbacks shown on the site plan will reduce impacts of the proposal to a greater extent than the 15 foot minimum setbacks required by the Zcning Code. The setbacks as shown on the site plan should become conditions of issuance of the mitigated DNS. 12. The City recognizes that the proposal will generate negative impacts on the adjacent single family areas. However, the impacts generated will be typical of impacts associated with Multiple Family Residential development, and will be substantially mitigated by the requirements contained in the mitigated DNS. The proposal will not have a significant adverse impact on the surrounding area. The Applicant has voluntarily agreed to mitigate impacts over what was required in the Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance. These additional mitigation measures will further reduce impacts of the Metco Construction development and should be included as conditions of issuance of the mitigated DNS.
