they will be monitoring and assi-sting much as in a hospital. He said
they would only be involved in a birth without a doctor in the event
the doctor is summoned and birth occurs before he arrives. He was
asked if they had equipment for infant distress and he responded that
their equipment can indicate the distress before it actually occurs.
He said they had discussed the use of the aid car with the Fire Depart-
ment, asking about not using the sirens and they had indicated it would
not be necessary for that distance. Mrs. Derleth asked if an informed
consent form would be used to inform the patient of a possibility of
increased risk. Dr. Grauke responded that they would, that the patients
would be informed of the issues spoken to this evening, such as a
prolapsed cord. He said they will know that in some events there is no
way they can be, advised that they are at an equal risk or increased risk.
Chairman Bailey said he was sure he was not biased in this matter,
although he and his wife had lost a child years ago two days before
anticipated*birth in a hospital. He said he knejq statistics go both
ways. lie felt that this birthing facili ' ty being located in an exisfing
clinic and obviously operated by qualified medical personnel would be
a plus. He took a limited vi'ew on the public health and general welfare
issue because he said, as Mrs. Luster had pointed out, that this would
not apply to the general public, but only to a few. He felt the proximity
to the hospital was excellent, and he noted that most emergency vehicles
do not.use a siren in an emergency because it confuses others. He said
*this type of facili.ty-is available in.Seattle, but -not in.Edmonds, so
it.should be a plus for� those who want to take advantage of it. .

Chairman Al Bailey welcomed the audience and explained the functions of the Board,
the procedure for handling of the hearings, and the method of appealing decisions
of the Board.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Minutes of the October 20, 1978 regular meeting and the October 9, 1978 special
meeting had been distributed. Mrs. Luster asked that the Minutes of October 20, 1978
be amended in Item V-78-78, Mahlon and Clarice Dofsen. She asked that the sentence
beginning on the sixth line be removed because it had been determined that it was
an incorrect statement. That sentence read- "If parking could not be provided on
the site there was the option of paying into the in -lieu parking fund, which would
require a payment of $2,000, but the Staff felt adequate parking could be provided
on the site." She said parking would have to be provided on site or a variance would
have to be obtained, that the -option of paying into the in -lieu parking fund did not
apply. She also asked that the statement at the end of the next.to the. last sentence
in that Paragraph which said "payment into the in -lieu parking fund would be required"
be deleted and replaced with "a variance would be required." Mr. Leraas asked that
the same minutes be corrected to indicate -he was absent from that meeting. MR. LERAAS
THEN MOVED, SECONDED BY MR. HATZENBUHLEk, TO APPROVE THE MINUTES OF OCTOBER 20, 1978,
AS AMENDED. MOTION CARRIED. MR. HATZENBUHLER MOVED, SECONDED BY MRS. DERLETH, THAT.
THE MINUTES OF OCTOBER 9, 1978 BE APPROVED. MOTION CARRIED.
Mrs. Luster advised that V-69-78 and V-90-78 had been withdrawn. She said the
applicant for V-71-78 was not present, and she suggested that item be moved to the
end of the agenda in case the applicant.appeared. MR. ROY MOVED, SECONDED BY MR.
HATZENBUHLER, TO PLACE V-71-78 AT THE END OF THIS EVENING'S AGENDA. T40TION CARRIED.
Mrs. Luster said V-78-78 had been continued to this evening, but the applicant was
not prepared and asked that it be continued again. Also, the applicant in V-93-78
and CU-54-78, a related item, had asked to be continued. MR. LERAAS MOVED, SECONDED
BY MRS. DERLETH, TO CONTINUE V-78-78, V-93-78, and CU-54-78 TO DECEMBER 20, 1978.
MOTION CARRIED.
CONT114UED AGENDA
V-76-78 BEN HOLT INDUSTRIES - Variance from lot width and depth ratio requirement
at 22224 Highway 99 (CG and RML)
This application was in conjunction with a subdivision of property.
The applicant was dividing the property basically along the zoning
change line. He was asking for a variance in the lot width/depth
ratio from .4 to .376. Condominium units had been almost fully com-
pleted on the RML property and now that he wished to divide the property
a buffer strip was required between the CG and the RML to buffer the
residential use from the commercial use. If the variance were not granted
the lot line would be within two feet of one of the buildings. There
V-77-78
is an access easement running from the condominium units s through the
CG property to provide access to Highway 99, and this ea ement will not
be affected. This would not be a rezone. The proposed division line
appeared to be the most logical because of a Jog in the property line
which Mrs. Luster illustrated. The Staff recommended approval of the
variance request because it would be a minimum variance to allow for
the most reasonable division of the property; it would not create a
problem for the public health, safety, or welfare; and all other code
requirements would be met. The public portion of the hearing was
opened, no one wished to speak, and the public portion was closed.

CObEIE00IREMENTS WHICH MUST BE MET-�
PAUL ROY - Variance from required front yard setback at north side of
Edmonds t., east of 8th Ave. (RS-6)
Mr. Roy left the rostrum. Mrs. Luster said the Code required a 20, front
yard setback and the applicant was asking for a variance to reduce that set-
back to 10'. Simil.ar variances had been requested and granted in 1968 and
1971 but the property had not been developed. it would not be a rezone.
The site is located at the end of a deadend street and near the edge of
a ravine. The applicant wished to construct the house closer to the road
to make connection to the sanitary system easier and construction of the
house easier. The site slopes a good deal and there is a 10' vacated
street at the front of this property. The Staff felt this was a reason-
able request since it is a deadend street and location of the house 10'
from the street would not create a' traffic problem. Mrs. Luster recom-
mended approval because it was a minimum variance to al -low for use of -
the property; the proposed house being located 10' from the right-of-way
would not create a traffic hazard because this is a deadend street; and
two other variances previously had been approved at this site, each
asking that the house be located directly on the property line. The
hearing was; opened. fir. noy said the lot is 90' X
public portion of the I . He said a house
lio, plus the 10' vacated area which makes it 90' x 120 unattractive and
could be built there without a variance but it would be ould have to be
would require removal of a number,oftrees, and a pump v,
used to get back to the seviers. He said his proposed location of the
house would be in line with the neighbor's house to the west. Dick Thorpe
of 820 Edmonds St. asked if there was any provision for off-street parking
because the street at that point is very narrow and he can barely turn
around to get out of his driveway. He said he got the impression that
the only reason this variance was being requested was because it would
be cheaper to build a house on the edge of what used to be the right-of-
way. He said the neighboring house built on the same line is not a house
but a filled in garage in which someone is living, and the house on that
lot is actually set back with the proper setback. Because of the narrowness
of the street he was concerned about the safety and difficulty of getting
in and out, and he added that there is another lot to the north that will
have to access off the same street. Mr. Roy responded that the house will
have a two -car garage and a 10' driveway. Regarding cost, he said it
would be less expensive to just bulldoze the area and double back from
the east. He said that by not going too far off the street they can
place a house on pilings so as not to tear up the neighborhood. He said
it was not a cost factor because they will have to dig from the top, and
in doing it this way only one tree will have to be removed, whereas if
the house were moved back tho lot would have to be cleared. Mr. Thorpe
then said that if it viere a question of one tree being removed as opposed
to several being removed, he would prefer that only one be removed, so
he did not object further. The public portion of the hearing was closed.
