1'
Meeting last night and there seemed to be a consensus that the City will
Council i g g

participate in some form of regional planning. He reminded the
Commission that King, Snohomish and Pierce counties have withdrawn from the
Puget Sound Council of Governments. He said that a letter has. been received
r;
from the Count Commissioners concerning formation of a new organization that
J
will be regional planning in scope, but it is undecided as to what the ultimate
!
l
organization will be.
The City Planner announced at this, time that P-1-76 (Seaview Pines No. 2) has

City Planner, Joe Wallis, reported that the type of application is
°
- a rezone and that the basis for the application is an extension of
the existing zone. He reviewed the Comprehensive Plan and the
Zoning Ordinance. With the help of a map projected on the screen,

Mr. Wallis. There are approximately 73,840 square feet contained in
the three lots which would accommodate nine units as RS-8. Under the
proposed zoning it would permit 36 units at maximum density, assuming
it would be one project. In summarizing, Mr. Wallis said that the
proposed rezone extends a zone that does not conform to the Comprehensive
Plan as the Plan extends only up to 82nd Place as far as indicatingj'

Mr. Wallis said thatpRS-8 provides for some 5.45 dwelling units per

the street. The recommendation of the staff was that the Planning
Commission consider residential duplex as opposed to RML. This, would
provide for 24 units. Mr. Wallis said that he felt this would provide
