BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL YAKIMA, WASHINGTON AGENDA STATEMENT Item No. 6.M. For Meeting of:August 20, 2019 ITEM TITLE: Ordinance amending a development agreement with Enterprise for Progress in the Community(EPIC)to increase the maximum building height allowed for the Triumph Treatment Services campus at 600 Superior Lane from 24 feet to 35 feet SUBMITTED BY: Joan Davenport,AI CP, Community Development Director Joseph Calhoun, Planning Manager Eric Crowell,Associate Planner(509) 576-6736 SUMMARY EXPLANATION: The Yakima City Council held an open record public hearing on August 5, 2019 to consider the Hearing Examiner's recommendation on a proposed rezone at 2708 Jerome Avenue and concurrent Type 3 Review for construction of a 13,000 sq ft building to be used as part of the existing Triumph Treatment Services campus in the vicinity of 600 Superior Lane. Following the public hearing, the City Council directed planning staff to prepare appropriate legislation to approve this request consistent with the Hearing Examiner's Recommendation. As specified in the Hearing Examiner's recommendation, an amendment to the development agreement approved in 1998 (Ordinance 98-53)to reflect a 35-foot maximum building height rather than the current 24-foot building height restriction is required in order for the new 35-foot-tall building to be constructed on the campus. The 35-foot height restriction does not apply to the parcel to be rezoned (parcel no. 181314-34426)which will be limited to 50 feet in height in accordance with the maximum height standards of the Multi-Family Residential (R-3)zoning district.

The staff report presented by Bruce Benson recommended approval. Steve Liddicoat, of Gridline, Inc., and EPIC entourage appeared on behalf of the proposal. There was no opposition. The Examiner inspected the property prior to the hearing. Y OF DEC/S1CW. The Examiner recommends approval. Although this is a multi -faceted, large, and fairly complex proposal, it is entirely non -controversial. The only issue deals with potential limitations an co ercial business, and what types of entities can locate professional offices on site. From the view of the site, the matters contained in the official record including the staff report, a review of both the Yakima.

Comprehensive Plan as appropriate for high density development. Both the old and the new plane encourage this type of protect, which locates public facilities of this type within the urban area, in areas well served by arterials, in a manner which is compatible with surrounding development, With respect to the zoning ordinance, R-3 zoning is considered compatible with R-1 zoning if appropriate site considerations are taken. In this instance, in order to promote a compatible development, the applicant will separate access, using a collector arterial, so that access does not run through R-1 neighborhoods. Sitescreening will be employed to the east and west, there will be building height limitations, and buildings will be designed to architecturally blend with the neighboring areas. 8.5 e<,a of ° �:.1 8a til a. The developer aokres�aledges that all public utilities need to be extended to this site, and will be done so as part of this proiect. 8.6 C significant factor is that there is absolutely no opposition to this proposal.

Class 2 Class 3 Review. Even if granted the rezone, this proposal remains dependent upon receiving concurrent approval for both the Class (2) group h s and the Clean (3) professional offices. The property is not proposed for subdivision so control of this development will remain in the hands of the developer. This proposal has a separate access from a collector arterial; once traffic has left the arterial it will not be mixed with other residential traffic in the area. The site plan indicates a campue-like environ nt with compatible officers and group homes. The entire project will be integrated with the surrounding neighborhood by appearance and segregated by use. Landscaping, site screening, d to,..raphy will be used to provide a buffer to other loss intensive land usea. 10 . YMC Section 15.10.020 authorizes' the Adm.ini5trativ Officialto adjust certain standards of the ordinance, including parking standards. Such adjustments are intended to allow for site flexibility and provide the opportunity for some tradeoffs in amenities in exchange for the adjust-na. in standarde. Of the five criteria listed in DA20 15.10.020, the subject proposal conforms, or does not conform, in the following ways; 1. Does not apply, solar acces ie not aconsideration in this request. 2.

The applicant has indicated that their group home client residenta are not permitted to have a car while in residence. -On this basis they 'have requested reduction of the parking standards by ten space. The request is logical; the standard presumevehicle usage when there will be none. The reduction is realietic. In the future, if any of the building space set aside for group hone use 413 altered to office use, the issue of parking spaces should he reexamined because offices require significantly more parking than group homes. S. No plans exist to address this area. 11. !hexed Devel •nt. The. applic t hes presented a site plan and narrative proposing four phases of development. Phase I, closest to Englewood, is believed to be financially feasible upon receipt of zoning and land ume approval. Development of additional phases will require continuing financial support and agency partnering which is dependent upon many factors. The applicant asks that approval be granted now for future phamee. The maximum time period requested between phases is three years. The applicant would also like to reserve the right to begin phase development earlier, if poseible. This is contingent upon the requirement that all phasing or partial JAalaing will require complete infrastructure improvements before certificates of occupancy are issued. The applicant has been advised that the approval of a phaeed . development will require continued adherence to the final site plans and designs approved through this review and bearings process. Alterations of the ae site plane and propoeale could be achieved through the modification process eet forth in YMC Chapter 15.17.
