22. On August 24, 1994, Mr. Ron Hansen submitted a site plan and permit application to the <br /> Public Works Department for the development of the property directly to the north of the <br /> proposed Second Chance site as an overnight parking area for four (4) refrigeration trucks. <br /> This property was shown as undeveloped on Second Chance's site plan which was reviewed <br /> and approved by the Planning Department for the proposed Second Chance Juvenile Facility; <br /> 23. On October 4, 1994, a Public Works permit was issued to the property owner for grading <br /> activity to the north of the Second Chance site; <br /> 24. On October 5, 1994, grading activity was begun to the north of the Second Chance site by <br /> Mr. Hansen. This resulted in the alteration of a slope on the northern portion of the site. <br /> Grading activities did effect an embankment on the portion of the site proposed to be <br /> developed by Second Chance. Appellants allege these activities impact an environmentally <br /> sensitive slope and is an issue of appeal; <br /> 25. The appellants requested that the Responsible Official withdraw the MDNS because of this <br /> grading activity. The Responsible Official did not withdraw the MDNS as requested. A <br /> geotechnical report addressing slope stability is required by Condition#5 of the MDNS; <br /> 26. The City Council did hold a third public hearing on the SEPA appeal on November 23, 1994; <br /> and <br /> 27. The City Council reviewed the additional information regarding the potential impacts of the <br /> proposed facility (including responses to the questionnaires) and heard testimony from the <br /> appellants, applicants (including property owner) and the City Staff regarding the appeal. <br /> Responses to the questionnaires indicate a potential for unauthorized absences at similar <br /> facilities in other jurisdictions (facility questionnaires) and some drug use by residents of <br /> similar facilities (school district questionnaires). This information documents potential <br /> impacts on public safety that should be mitigated. <br /> WHEREAS THE CITY COUNCIL CONCLUDES THAT: <br /> 1. There was adequate information provided to the City Council concerning the impact of the <br /> proposed facility on public safety, public services, public schools, social services, <br /> neighborhoods, site contamination and other issues of appeal; <br /> 2. It has not been demonstrated that the Second Chance proposal will result in a probable <br /> significant adverse environmental impact; <br /> 3. The additional information provided to the City Council during the SEPA appeal identified the <br /> existence of a potential impact from unauthorized absences from a transitional care facility and <br /> 3 <br />
