1. INTRODUCTION
The applicant would like to operate a convenience store and to also operate a gas station with extended
hours of operation at the site of an existing gas station and auto repair shop. This building was constructed
in 1994 while it was in Snohomish County, and then it was annexed into the City of Edmonds in 1995. The
auto repair (commercial garage) use has ceased, and in its place, the applicant would like to operate a
convenience store on the first floor of the building to sell typical convenience store items such as coffee, ice
cream, cigarettes, snacks, chips, and pop. The second floor of the building would be used as office space,
and no customers will visit the second floor. The applicant has stated that in the past, customers may have
been able to use the gas pumps after hours, but that they currently have the business set up so that they a�e
only operational between the hours of 6:00 am and 11:00 pin to comply with Neighborhood Business (BN)
zoning reguiations. However, in the future, the applicant may like to have the gas pumps available for "pay -
at -the -pump?' fuel purchases between the hours of 11:00 pin and 6:00 pm. The convenience store, however,
would only be open to the public during normal business hours (6:00 am through 11:00 pm). The applicant
has applied for a Conditional Use Permit for a convenience store and also for a gas station with extended
hours of operation, and the following is the Edmonds Plarming Division's analysis and recommendation of
the applicant's submittal.

B. Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Compliance
. 1. ECDC Chapter 16.45 (NEIGHBORHOOD BUSINESS)
a) Facts:
(1) Convenience Stores are a primary use requiring a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to
ECDC 16.45.010.C.4.
(2) Businesses open to the public between the hours of 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM is a
primary use requiring a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to ECDC 16.45.010.C.3
(3) Drive-in businesses (such as gas stations) are a primary use requiring a Conditional
use Permit pursuant to ECDC 16.45.0 1 O.C.2 -
(4) The applicant has an existing drive-in gas station business.
(5) As noted above, the gas station use started in the County and is assumed to have
complied with County regulations. ECDC 17.40.01 O.H states, "A legal use does not
become nonconforming because the zone in which it is located is changed to a zone
district which requires a conditional use permit for the use, However, the use may not
be altered, as stated in subsection B of this section, without obtaining a conditional
use permit." The applicant has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to after the
hours of operation.

site.
StaffRepon_CU-06-25.doc - June 8, 2006
Byung KinVWoodway Gas & Mail (Convenience Store)
File No. CU-06-25 - Page 5 of I I
(12) Parking of vehicles unrelated to the site business is considered a commercial parking
lot, which requires a conditional use permit in the BN zone pursuant to ECDC
16A5.020D.2.
(13)Vebieles incidental to a permitted or conditional use permit could be allowed as
outdoor storage which is a secondary use thus requiring a conditional use permit,
subject to ECDC 16.45.020.D. 1.
(14) Outdoor storage is not a permitted use in the BN zone. The applicant has stated that
there will not be any vehicle storage space rented at this site.
b) Conclusions:
(1) The applicant has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a convenience store
as the primary use on the first floor of the existing building (while the second floor
would be used as office space for the applicant's business bookkeeping, which will
not be open to customers). If approved, the conditional use perm it would meet the
requirements of ECDC 16.45.
(2) The applicant has requested that the hours of operation for the convenience store will
be from 6:00 am to 11:00 pm, which meet the BN zoning code requirements for
business hours of operation. However, the fuel pumps are capable of being set so
that they are accessible to the public outside through "pay -at -the -pump" fuel
purchases on a 24-hour basis. The applicant has not requested extended hours of
operation for the convenience store use — however, the applicant has stated that in the
fiiturc he may wish to have the fuel pumps available to the neighborhood customers
between the hours of 11:00 pm and 6:00 am through "pay-at-the-puml)7' fuel
purchases. If approved, the conditional use permit would meet the requirements of
ECDC 16.45.
(3) No commercial vehicles, trailers, or equipment unrelated to the operation of the Gas
& Mart shall be permitted to be parked or stored on the site.
(4) Compliance with Chapter 20.05 is required to allow the establishment of the above -
mentioned primary uses in this zone. If a Conditional Use Permit is granted, then the
uses will be consistent with the Edmonds Community Development Code Section
16.45.010.
2. ECDC Chapter 17.50 (OFF-STREET PARKING REGULATIONS)
a) Facts:
(1) ECDC 17.50.020.13 outlines the required off-street parking based on the area of die
use and the type of use. The table below outlines the parking required based on the
uses proposed:

(2) ECDC 17.50.020.13.9 would have required one space per 200 square feet for
commercial garages, the previous use.
(3) ECDC 17.50.020.13.1 requires one space per 300 square feet for convenience stores.
(4) ECDC 17.50.020.13.6 requires one space per- 800 square feet for offices not providing
on -site customer service.
(5) It appears that there is plenty of room to accommodate the four required parking
spaces, however this will be confirmed through building permit review.
(6) The applicant, though the Change of Use building permit application submitted to the
City for review, will be required to prove that there is sufficient on -site parking for
the uses proposed.
b) Conclusion:
(1) If the applicant can prove that there is sufficient parking on -site for the uses
proposed, then the proposal would meet the parking requirements in ECDC Chapter
17.50.
3. ECDC § 20.05 (CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS)
a) Facts:
(1) ECDC Section 20.05 contains the review and approval criteria for Conditional Use
Permits. According to the aforementioned code section, "No Conditional Use Permit
may be approved unless all the findings in this section can be made." The findings
are as follows:
• Comprehensive Plan - The proposed use is compatible with the Comprehensive Plan.
• Zoning Ordinance - That the proposed use, and its location, is consistent with the
purposes of the Zoning Ordinance and the purpose of the zone district in which the
use is to be located, and that the proposed use will meet all the applicable
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
• Not Detrimental - That the use, as approved or conditionally approved, will not be
significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, and to nearby
private property or improvements unless the use is a public necessity.
• Transferability - The Hearing Examiner shall determine whether the conditional use
permit shall run with the land or shall be personal.
(2) The applicant has submitted declarations addressing how this proposal meets the
above criteria (Attachment 6).
(3) The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as "Neighborhood Commercial!'
(4) The proposed convenience store and gas station would provide goods and services to
the surrounding neighborhood.
(5) The Edmonds Community Development Code allows convenience stores and
extended hours of operation as a permitted primary use requiring an approved
conditional use permit.
(6) ECDC § 21.15.092 defines a convenience store: "A convenience store shall mean a
small retail commercial establishment which sells and/or rents a limited selection
and variety qfperishable and nonperishablefood items and grocery related items,
video cassettes and sundries which by their nature are geared toward rapid
customer turnover. [Ord. 2660 § 6, 19881. "
(7) The proposal meets the definition of a convenience store.

Byang Kim/Woodway Gas & Mail (Convenienee!jtore)
File No. CU-06-25 - Page 7 of I I
(8) No neighbors have raised concerns regarding the proposed new land use.
(9) Typical concerns with convenience stores may include increased littering, crime,
noise, lights, access, and overflow parking.
(10) No change to lighting or access has been proposed.
(11) Noise and crime is subject to Title 5 of the Edmonds City Code "Public Safety and
Morals."
(12) The submitted building permit will be reviewed by the City's Recycling Coordinator
to determine if the existing trash/recycling enclosure is sufficient for the proposed
new use. However, this is not intended to be used by patrons so it would not
discourage them from littering.
(13) A convenient trash receptacle located somewhere near the entry of the building may
deter customers ftom littering.
(14) The change of use to a convenience store may increase traffic and the need for
parking.
(15) A Traffic Impact Analysis has been submitted by the applicant and is being reviewed
by the City"s Engineering Division.
(16) Based on the size of the site and the uses proposed, it appears that there would be
sufficient available parking onsite to accommodate the customers. However, a
formal parking plan has not yet been submitted to the City, which will be required
during Building Permit review.
b) Conclusions:
(1) See Section II.C. of this report for a discussion on consistency with the
Comprehensive Plan for the City of Edmonds.
(2) See Section II.B. 1 -5 of this report for a discussion on consistency with the criteria
given in the Zoning Code of the City of Edmonds. If the proposed Conditional Use
Permit is approved, the Convenience Store and Gas Station will be consistent with
the Zoning Ordinance.
(3) The striped parking spaces and walkway, if required through building permit review,
will promote pedestrian activity.
(4) If the applicant provides a convenient trash receptacle somewhere near the entry of
the building for customers to dispose of their trash, this should reduce the potential
for littering and should help keep the site clean and reduce the potential for
detriment.
(5) Staff finds no reason why the permit should not be transferable.
4. ECDC § 20.15A (Environmental Review)
a) Fact:
(1) Modifications to buildings exempt from SEPA review does not require SEPA review.
b) Conclusion:
(1) The applicant and the City have complied with the requirements of ECDC 20.15A.

5. ECDC § 23.40 (Critical Areas)
a) Fact:
(1) A Critical Areas Determination has not been conducted for this site.
(2) The applicant is not proposing to change anything on the exterior of the existing
building or site and therefore this action is not subject to Critical Areas chapter
review.
b) Conclusions-
(1) The applicant and the City have complied with the requirements of ECDC § 23.40.
(2) If any change is proposed to the landscaping or parking, the applicant will need to
apply for a Critical Areas Determination.

walkways, which will be required to be shown on the site plan through building
permit review.
(10) Noise is regulated in the City of Edmonds under Edmonds City Code chapter 5.30
(Noise Abatement Control).
b) Conclusions-
(1) The proposed convenience store use will not adversely impact the surrounding
neighborhood and is generally consistent with the Land Use designation of the
Comprehensive Plan for its location.
(2) The noise that will be generated by the proposed convenience store and existing gas
station is minimal and is subject to the noise ordinance in Edmonds Community Code
Title 5.30 (Noise Abatement and Control).

111. RECONSIDERATION AND APPEALS
The following is a summary of the deadlines and procedures for filing reconsiderations and appeals. Any
person wishing to file or respond to a recommendation or appeal should contact the Planning Department
for further procedural information.
A. Request for Reconsideration
Section 20.100.010.G allows for the Hearing Examiner to reconsider his decision or
recommendation if a written request is filed within ten (10) working days of the date of the initial
decision by any person who attends the public hearing and signs the attendance register and/or
presents testimony or by any person holding an ownership interest in a tract of land which is the
subject of such decision or recommendation. The reconsideration request must cite specific
references to the findings and/or the criteria contained in the ordinances governing the type of
application being reviewed.
B. Appeals of Conditional Use Permits
Section 20.105.020.A & B describe how appeals of a Hearing Examiner decision or
recommendation shall be made. The appeal shall be made in writing, and shall include the
decision being appealed along with the name of the project and the date of the decision, the name
of the individual or group appealing the decision, their interest in the matter, and reasons why the
appellant believes the decision to be wrong. The appeal must be filed with the Community
Development Director within fourteen (14) calendar days after the date of the decision being
appealed.
C. Time Limits for Reconsideration and Appeals
The time limits for Reconsiderations and Appeals run concurrently. If a request for
reconsideration is filed before the time limit for filing an appeal has expired, the time "clock" for
filing an appeal is stopped until a decision on the reconsideration request is completed. Once the
Hearing Examiner has issued his decision on the reconsideration request, the time clock for filing
an appeal continued for the point it was stopped. For example, if a request is filed on day 5 of the
appeal period, an individual would have 9 more days in which to file an appeal after the Hearing
Examiner issues his decision on the reconsideration request.
