Ordinance 1436-88 - Laserfiche WebLink

• In addition, the City Council's decision imposed the following conditions: Condition 8. a. The approval of Kenilworth 1 and 5 shall include the designation on the final plat map of a green belt/open space area located immediately adjacent to the single family lots. The width of said green belt/open space shall be as follows: To be determined when the City is presented with the development of Tract A of Kenilworth 1 and Tract B of Kenilworth 5. Intensity of development will determine the width of the buffer. A guideline for the buffer (consisting of evergreen trees and plantings) width shall be 150 feet for development at 5 to 8 units per acre, and a minimum of 80 feet for development less than 5 units per acre. Conclusion: A buffer of adequate width is required by the Plat of Kenilworth Hills No. 1 and 5. 4. Access: Findings: Currently the site does not have an improved public access. There is a forty (40) foot wide public right-of-way from the end of Seaway Boulevard to the site and a sixty (60) foot wide right-of-way along the west side of the property. Additional right-of-way south of the proposal down to Seaway Boulevard will ultimately be necessary. Improvements to this undeveloped right-of-way will be necessary at the time of the property is proposed for development. Regional access to the site is provided by Seaway Boulevard which extends from 20th Avenue W. , Highway 526, and Interstate 5. Future regional access will be provided by the extension of Seaway Boulevard southward intersecting with Hwy. 526 and further south connecting with Hwy. 525. Development of this road (currently called Paine Field Boulevard) is anticipated in the next 5-10 years. No access to the site from the north is anticipated, although the potential exists for access to the north if property owners both north and south of 56th St. S.W. approve. Conclusions: Existing and planned regional access to this site is excellent for office and industrial development. Direct access can be provided to a limited degree within the existing right-of-way with partial standard street improvement. Ultimately, a fully improved industrial grade access will be required. 5. Drainage: Findings: Most of the site drains into the Powder Mill Gulch drainage basin, with a small portion on the west side draining into Edgewater Creek. Both of these drainage basins were studied in the South Everett Drainage Basins Plan and general requirements for storm water control have been identified. Each basin operates independently and ctnrm warar from nnp hasi.n cannot be transferred to another basin. On-site detention will be required for any development on this site. For development within the Powder Mill Gulch Drainage Basin, the detention volume will be based on an existing two-year storm (allowable release rate) and a 25 year developed storm. For development in Edgewater Creek Drainage Basin, detention must be sized for a 25 year developed storm and a maximum release rate to prevent the existing detention pond on Kenilworth Hill's #1 from overflowing during a 25 year storm (the maximum release rate from the existing pond is 0.5 cfs) . Surface drainage from this site must be tightlined to Powder Mill Gulch with energy dissipation provisions at the outfall. A stream buffer along Powder Mill Gulch Creek will be required in compliance with the figure on page 33 of the final EIS for the South Everett Drainage Basins Plan. -4-
