• <br /> , <br /> Planning Commission Minutes <br /> July 7, 1987 <br /> Page 5 <br /> "Let me go through each of Mr. Bocek's points. #1 - why does he need a 12-month sunset <br /> clause on this action. That was staff's idea. It is actually a 24-month sunset clause <br /> because if he finds a buyer, there will be a 12-month extension. We feel this clause is <br /> reasonable." <br /> "Point #2, on page 8, Section 3, he asks you why does the 1,000 business park transition <br /> area have to spill down into his south 40 acres? The answer is that the 1,000 foot <br /> transition area follows the topography, it follows the road pattern, it follows the impact <br /> zone, and it only impacts an additional 10 acres in south 40 acres. His straight line is just <br /> following a section line, what logic is there to a Planning Commission in this?" <br /> "Point #3, on page 11, Section 5, on the height limitations, he says he wants to go back to <br /> the industrial park concept that Mr. Dearborn proposed to you. He calls the 4-foot <br /> difference between his proposal and our proposal to be nitpicking. Our position is that <br /> view goes both ways - it is the view from his side and from ours. The neighborhood in its <br /> analysis came up with how high the berm should to screen out a 26-foot high building <br /> which would be 200 feet away. <br /> "Point #4, on page 14, Section 19, he felt the 5-acre lot size was too large a minimum and <br /> proposed a minimum of two acres. A two-acre business park would be a choppy <br /> development; a five-acre size business park is a typical size." <br /> "Point #5, on page 15, Section 20, we do not feel that Powder Mill Gulch should be used as <br /> his open space since it is not a developable area." <br /> "Point #6, on page 15, Section 21, he was arguing the additional 50-foot building setback <br /> was an unfair request. The 50-foot building setback does not increase the buffer to a <br /> 200-foot buffer. I am suggesting that a 50-foot setback has some logic behind it. <br /> Ken Weber, 5312 Sound Avenue, Everett, WA then told the Commission that he had <br /> watched the group develop. They were at first emotional then becoming a very logical <br /> decisionmaking group. "I think the proposal satisfies both the needs of the neighborhood <br /> and the developer." <br /> Mr. Bocek made some further comments, then the Planning Commission started their <br /> deliberation. <br /> MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING <br /> At this point, Chuck Moser made a motion to close the public hearing, with a second by <br /> Rick Utt. On roll call, the vote was all affirmative. Motion carried 5 - 0. <br /> The Planning Commission then proceeded to discuss the whole situation, then making the <br /> following motions. <br />
