Seattle, said he was representing Harbor Construction Company which is
using angle .parking outside their building and they were concerned
about their future parking. Mr. Allen said the angle parking against
the building has been permitted because the street has been undeveloped
and that, unless there is a problem, the parking will remain. He said
curb and gutters will not be put in adjacent to the Harbor Building.

"VIEWMOOR" - Six -lot plat located at 928 9th Ave. N. (RS-12)
Commissioner LaBelle asked to be excused from this hearing because he
has good friends who are involved in this plat.. He left the Council
Chambers. Chairman McGibbon noted that there was a modification request
on the.application that the subdivision be approved using a half -standard
street section for access to Lots 3 - 6 in lieu of using a private road
as access to same. Ms. Charleson said this is located at the•corner where
Caspers St. turns into.9th, and most of the access will be from loth.
There is a general slope going down to 9th Ave. but it is not significant.
The property is relatively level on the site. On Lots 2 and 3 the set-
backs will have to be rearranged and Jerry Lovell, the engineer, had been
so notified. The lot areas were adequate. There is a garage straddling
Lots 1 and 2 which will be removed. Mr. and Mrs. John Osterhaug, owners
of the adjacent property to .the north, had met with City representatives
and the developer and were in agreement with the proposal. They could
have essentially the same development on their side of the street. There
.are no large stands of trees on the property. Ms. Charleson did not
believe there would be any significant adverse environmental impacts from
the -proposal. She said the subdivision met all Code requirements except
for the modification indicated for Lots 2 and 3 and it provides orderly
development of the site. Assistant City Engineer Dick Allen said the
applicant is requesting modification to develop a street in conjunction
with abutting property and will be developing a little more than half of
the street and will be putting in some of the facilities. He foresaw no
problems. He said the City would require more right-of-way but they are
down to the minimum on the lot sizes. Ms. Charleson recommended approval
and Mr. Allen concurred. The public portion of the hearing was opened.
Jerry -Lovell of Lovell-Sauerland & Associates, Inc. explained the various
alternatives for access that had been considered. He .said he felt the
plat as proposed had the best location for a road to serve this property
and that of the Osterhaugs. John Osterhaug said he was totally in agree-
ment with what had been presented by Ms. Charleson and Mr. Lovell. He
said he would like to commend Mr. Lovell for coming up with an optimum
proposal considering the adjacent property. Mrs. John McKean, with
property to the south of the proposal, said she was.in agreement also.
The public portion of the hearing was then closed. COMMISSIONER GOODHOPE
MOVED, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER WALKER, TO APPROVE P-8-77. MOTION CARRIED.

Chairman McGibbon read a letter which had been received in connection
with this proposal from Mr. and Mrs. Keneth R. Prias of 16415 68th Ave. W.,
Lynnwood, asking that consideration be given to installing a traffic
control at 164th St. S.W. and 68th Ave., should this proposal be approved.
Ms. Charleson showed the location of the site on the Zoning Map and noted
that across 68th Ave. to the east is the City of Lynnwood. The property
is heavily wooded. The Engineering Department is requiring a gravel
walkway on the wes.tside of 68th Ave. The trees mostly will be preserved.
Ms. Charleson explained the PRO concept for the audience. She said this
