8. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR REZONE
OF PROPERTY AT 2108, 2110 AND 2202 WEST LINCOLN AVENUE
(REQUESTED BY FREDERICK BARTRAM, RODNEY TRAVIS AND MILDRED SONSALLA)
(CONTINUED FROM 7/7/98)
This being the time set for the continuation of the public
hearing on the development agreement for the rezone of
property at 2108, 2110 and 2202 West Lincoln Avenue, Bruce
Benson, Associate Planner, reviewed the rezone request and
the issue of the requested building .height restriction by
Mr. Bartram's neighbors. He stated that a meeting was held
to try to reach a compromise between the permitted 50 -foot
building height and the requested 20 -foot building height.
2
208
AUGUST 4, 1998
No compromise was achieved during this meeting. He stated
staff recommends approval of the rezone and direct the Legal
Department to prepare the appropriate legislation for the
rezone including a development agreement. The development
agreement would require that all parcels in this rezone be
subject to an exit agreement so vehicles don't back out onto
Lincoln Avenue, and to allow the clock business. Staff is
not recommending a limitation of the building height. There
was discussion about the letter from Mr. and Mrs. Gorman
indicating that a compromise of a 35 -foot building height is
acceptable. Mayor Puccinelli opened the meeting for public
testimony. Tom Edwards, neighbor adjacent to the south,
stated his property has a direct view of the three
properties proposed for rezone, while Mr. Gorman's property
abuts to a small portion of one of the applicant's property.
He spoke about the loss of view and privacy if anything
above 20 feet were built on Mr. Bartram's lot. He informed
Council that most of the buildings along Lincoln Avenue are
under 15 feet in height, excluding the apartment complex
which is 21 feet high including the pitched roof. He
reported that the Bartram property is three feet above the
ditch, whereas the other two properties are either level
with the ditch or three feet below the ditch. Following
discussion regarding the requested building height
limitation, it was MOVED BY BARNETT, SECONDED BY KLINGELE,
TO ACCEPT THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION. The staff
recommendation is to not alter the 50 -foot building height
allowed in the R -3 and B -1 zones. The question was called
for a vote on the motion. The motion failed by 1 -6 voice
vote; Beauchamp, Buchanan, Klingele, Place, Puccinelli and
Sims voting nay. It was MOVED BY BARNETT, SECONDED BY SIMS,
TO ACCEPT THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION, WITH A BUILDING HEIGHT
OF 20 FEET. Mayor Puccinelli hesitated to take this action
without Mr. Bartram being present. The staff recommendation
in the motion was clarified. The passage of the motion will
approve the rezone and direct the legal department to return
with legislation to approve a development agreement to
permit a clock business at that location, require the
traffic maneuvering for all properties involved to be on-
site, and place a 20 -foot building height restriction
measuring from the present property grade. The question was
called for a vote on the motion. The motion carried by 6 -1
voice vote; Klingele voting nay. It was MOVED BY BARNETT,
SECONDED BY SIMS, TO APPROVE THE REZONE REQUEST SUBJECT TO
THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. The motion carried by unanimous
voice vote.

9. PUBLIC MEETING TO CONSIDER THE HEARING EXAMINER
RECOMMENDATION ON REZONE OF PROPERTY AT 3905 SUMMITVIEW
AVENUE REQUESTED BY KENNETH KELLER (PLEASE BRING MATERIAL
PREVIOUSLY DISTRIBUTED
Dan Valoff, Assoc Planner, commented that this is an
application for a single parcel rezone from R -3 to B -1. The
I II property currently has a single- family home on it. The
a pplicant indicates he does not have development plans at
this time, but would like to rezone it for future
development such as professional offices. The Hearing
Examiner and staff recommend that legislation be prepared to
approve the rezone. Council Member Place commented that she
hopes that any future development would recognize the
problem of traffic turning left into the development. Mayor
Puccinelli opened the public meeting for citizen comments.
Ken Keller, 412 North 62 Avenue, stated his intentions for
his inherited property, which is to rehabilitate the home
for small business use and remove the garage to allow for a
parking area. The driveway will circle the building so
vehicles will not have to back onto Summitview Avenue.
There being no other citizen wishing to address this issue,
the public meeting was closed. It was MOVED BY SIMS,
SECONDED BY BEAUCHAMP, TO APPROVE THE HEARING EXAMINER
RECOMMENDATION TO REZONE THE PROPERTY, AND ASK STAFF TO
BRING BACK LEGISLATION. The motion carried by unanimous
voice vote.
' 10. PUBLIC MEETING TO CONSIDER THE HEARING EXAMINER
RECOMMENDATION ON REZONE OF PROPERTY AT 702 SOUTH 48 AVENUE
REQUESTED BY LONNY AND JOANNE CARR (PLEASE BRING MATERIAL
PREVIOUSLY DISTRIBUTED)
This being the time set for the meeting, Bruce
Benson, Associate Planner, explained' the circumstances which
led to the request to rezone this property from' R-1 to B -2.
In March 1997, the applicant applied for a building permit
for a garage for vehicle storage and for hobby purposes. In
February 1998, a consultant contacted the City about a
client's business that did not conform to the current
zoning. Although the staff recommendation is that a B -2 use
I/ is not compatible with the adjacent R -1 zone, the Hearing
Examiner's recommendation is to approve the rezone. Council
Member Klingele stated this rezone would be an extension of
the 8-2 zone that goes towards Tieton Drive. Mayor
Puccinelli opened the public meeting for citizen testimony.

AUGUST 4, 1998
Lonny Carr, applicant, stated once the business started, it
boomed, and he now employs ten people. Council Member Place
verified that the employees don't work in the garage; it is
used for storage of equipment. Mr. Carr stated that is
correct, except that the business office was moved from the
home into this garage. Mayor Puccinelli referenced staff's
concerns and asked Mr. Carr if he would accept a restriction
in the rezone that he could continue his business at this
location; however, he could not sell the property for other
business purposes. Mr. Carr stated it was his belief that
that type of restriction is included in the Hearing
Examiner's recommendation. Council Member Place stated that
any change in use would require a Class 3 review. Council
Member Sims stated that attaching different conditions to
rezones might lengthen the application process in the
future. Following discussion about the restriction
recommended by the Hearing Examiner, it was MOVED BY SIMS,
SECONDED BY BARNETT, TO ACCEPT THE HEARING EXAMINER
RECOMMENDATION FOR REZONE, WITH THE PROPOSED CONDITIONS.
The motion carried by 6 -1 voice vote; Klingele voting nay.
11. AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
There was no citizen wishing to address any item not on the
agenda; however, Mr. Bartram was now present and stated he
was not notified that his. rezone application would be on the
agenda today. He was advised that Council had voted to
rezone the property to allow the clock business, and to
restrict the building height to 20 feet. Mr. Bartram noted
his present building is 22 feet above street grade. He
wants to add a weather vane and cupola to his building which
this restriction won't allow. He stated he is not sure he
wants to proceed with the rezone with this condition
attached. Assistant City Attorney Peterson outlined Mr.
Bartram's options: 1) withdraw his rezone application, 2)
file an appeal against the Council's decision to Superior
Court or, 3) not sign the development agreement. If the
documents weren't signed, the status quo would continue.
Council requested staff to inform Mr. Bartram in writing
about the Council's decision, Mr. Bartram's options, and the
consequences of his options. The clock business cannot
continue in that location if the zoning is not changed.
12. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION REGARDING HAZARDOUS DEBRIS AND

in the ;evening. Council Member Place urged staff to utilize
all means to advertise the hearing, including announcements
on the' utility bills and on the transit buses. She was

there isn't sufficient time to notify customers about the

the hearing in the early evening. She stated the transit
