Jen 'm,Associate Planner fer Macfiuga Proposal: Application for a conditional use permit for a home occupation located at 23005 —94 th Avenue West. 0010F.111ttyall 1 t, , 1 , ' ..., ,, The applicant, Aimee Huyck, has applied for a conditional use permit for a home occupation located at 23005 — 94th Avenue West. The applicant is a licensed naturopathic doctor and physical therapist, and the proposed home occupation is for a home-based medical office in order for Ms. Huyck to move her practice to her home. The site is located within the Single -Family Residential (RS -8) zone. Since the proposed home occupation will include visits to the site by customers, an administrative (Type II) conditional use permit is required in order to establish the home occupation. The applicant submitted various materials in support of the subject application, including a land use application form, criteria statement, and site plan, which are included as attachments and are referenced throughout this report. The following is staff's analysis of the project and decision. 1. Owner: Virginia Gibbs (Attachment 1) 2. Applicant: Aimee Huyck (Attachment 1) 3. Tax Parcel Number: 27033600106700 4. Location: 23005 — 94th Ave. W, Edmonds (Attachment 2) Page I of 10 File No. PLN20120015 Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Hotpe Occupation 5. ZoninLy: Single -Family Residential (RS -8) (Attachment 2) 6. Existing Use: The site contains an existing single-family residence. 7. Proposed Use: The applicant has proposed to have a home occupation as a secondary use in conjunction with the existing single-family residential use. The proposed home occupation is for a home-based medical office. 8. Review Process: Pursuant to ECDC 20.20.010(B) a home occupation that does not meet one or more of the requirements of subsection 20.20.010(A) may be approved as a staff conditional use permit (Type II decision) as long as it is found to comply with the criteria of ECDC 20.20.010(B). As such, staff will review the proposal and will make the final decision on whether the proposal is consistent with the criteria found in ECDC 20.20.010(B). III. APPLICATION MATERIALS: The land use application, which was submitted on May 3, 2012, is included as Attachment 1. Staff has prepared a zoning and vicinity map, which is included as Attachment 2. With the application submittal, the applicant provided a criteria statement (Attachment 3) indicating how she feels that the proposal is consistent with the applicable review criteria of ECDC 20.20. The original application materials were found to be incomplete, and an email (Attachment 4) was sent to the applicant on May 23, 2012 requesting that the applicant submit a site plan and revised criteria statement. In response, the applicant submitted a revised criteria statement on June 7, 2012 (Attachment 5) and a site plan and aerial photo on June 15, 2012 (Attachment 6). The application became complete pursuant to ECDC 20.02.003 on June 29, 2012; however, staff sent a request for additional information on August 13, 2012 (Attachment 7). In response to this request, the applicant submitted a written response on September 10, 2012 (Attachment 8) and a revised site plan on September 13, 2012 (Attachment 9). IV. SEPA THRESHOLD DETERMINATION: Review by the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) is not required with this application because the proposal is for a home occupation within an existing single- family residence and is exempt under WAC 197-11-800 (Categorical Exemptions). V. NATURAL ENVIRONMENT: 1. Topography: The subject site is relatively level; however, a steep slope is located near the northern side of the property. 2. Soils: According to the Soil Survey of Snohomish County Area, Washington, this site consists of "Alderwood Urban land complex, 2 to 8 percent slopes" soils (map unit symbol 5). 3. Critical Areas: A critical areas determination has not been issued for the subject site. However, since the home occupation will be located within the existing building and the subject proposal does not include any modifications to the exterior of the site, a critical areas checklist and further study is not required at this time. Page 2 of 10' File No. PLN2012001 S Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Home Occupation VI. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS: The subject site and surrounding properties to the west and south are located within the Single -Family Residential, RS -8, zone. The surrounding properties to the north and east of the subject site are located within the Multiple -Family Residential, RM -1.5, zone. Refer to the zoning and vicinity map for zoning designations within the vicinity of the site (Attachment 2). Surrounding uses include single-family and multi -family residential uses. VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designation for this site is "Single Family — Urban 1. " The Comprehensive Plan has the following stated goals and policies for Residential Development that are applicable to this project (excerpt from Comprehensive Plan pages 71 through 72): Residential Development B. Goal. High quality residential development which is appropriate to the diverse lifestyle of Edmonds residents should be maintained and promoted. The options available to the City to influence the quality of housing for all citizens should be approached realistically in balancing economic and aesthetic considerations, in accordance with the following policies: B.5 Protect residential areas from incompatible land uses through the careful control of other types of development and expansion based on the following principles: B.5.a Residential privacy is a fundamental protection to be upheld by local government. B.5.b. Traffic not directly accessing residences in a neighborhood must be discouraged. B.5.c. Stable property values must not be threatened by view, traffic or land use encroachments. B.5.d. Private property must be protected from adverse environmental impacts of development including noise, drainage, traffic, slides, etc. The goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan were taken into account when crafting the home occupation regulations of ECDC 20.20. As such, the regulations of ECDC 20.20. 010 for home occupations such as the limitations on the numbers of employees and the numbers of vehicles visiting the site reflect the above Comprehensive Plan goals and policies related to limiting neighborhood traffic and retaining residential privacy. In reviewing the subject proposal against the applicable objectives of the Comprehensive Plan, the proposal appears to be consistent with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. VIII. APPLICABLE CODES: 1. ECDC 16.20 (Single -Family Residential Zone) Section 16.20 of the Edmonds Community Development Code provides the purposes by which development in single-family zones is to be reviewed. The purposes of the RS — Single -Family Residential zone are to reserve and regulate areas primarily for family living in single-family dwellings and to provide for additional non-residential Page 3 of 10 File No. PLN20120015 Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Home Occupation uses which complement and are compatible with single-family dwelling use. Pursuant to ECDC 16.20.010, a home occupation, subject to the requirements of Chapter 20.20 ECDC, is an allowed secondary use within the Single -Family Residential (RS) zone. The proposal is required to comply with the purposes of the single-family residential zone and the criteria outlined in Chapter 20.20. Based on staffs review of the specific home occupation criteria (as described in Section X.3 of this report), staff feels that theproposal is in compliance with the purposes and requirements of the single-family zone contained within ECDC 16.20. 2. ECDC 17.50 (Parking) ECDC 17.50.020.A.1 requires all single-family dwellings to provide a minimum of two off-street parking spaces. Additional parking requirements associated with home occupations are contained within ECDC 20.20.010 rather than within ECDC 17.50. As such, ECDC 20.20.010.13.7 specifies that on-site parking shall be provided for at least three vehicles if visits to the site are to be made by either an off-site employee or customer. Since the subject proposal is to allow for visits to the site by off-site customers (no more than one vehicle per hour), a total of three on-site parking stalls are required. The minimum dimensional requirement for a parking stall is a width of 8.5 feet by a length of 16.5 feet. Pursuant to ECDC .18.95.030.13, one tandem space may be provided in order to meet the minimum required parking on RS -zoned lots. As such, one of the three required parking stalls may be tandem with another one of the required stalls. The Engineering Division conducted a site visit on August 24, 2012 and confirmed the measurements provided on the applicant's revised site plan (Attachment 9), which indicates that the existing asphalt driveway is large enough to accommodate two side-by-side parking stalls with sufficient space for one tandem stall behind these two side-by-side stalls. The Engineering Division also confirmed that adequate turnaround is provided on the site. Thus, parking for at least three cars can be provided for on site, and the applicant has shown compliance with the applicable on-site parking requirements of ECDC 17.5 0.020.A. 1 and ECDC 20.20.010.B.7. It shall be noted that parking is not permitted within the shared vehicular access easement. In order to confirm compliance with the minimum on-site parking requirements, the area within the access easement was not counted as area available for parking. Only the paved driveway located entirely on the applicant's property was included for finding compliance with the on-site parking requirements. A condition has been added to this approval prohibiting parking for the home occupation from being located within the access easement. 3. ECDC 20.20 (Home Occupations) a. Chapter 20.20 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) provides the criteria by which home occupations are to be reviewed. The subject proposal is for a home occupation that includes visits to the site by customers, which does not comply with the regulations of ECDC 20.20.010.A in order for a home occupation to be conducted as a permitted secondary use. Pursuant to ECDC 20.20.010.13, a home occupation which does not meet one or more of the Page 4 of 10 File No. PLN20120015 Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Horne Occupation requirements of subsection (A) may be approved as a staff approval (Conditional Use Permit, Type II decision) if the home occupation will not harm the character of the surrounding neighborhood as evidenced by meeting all of the criteria of this code section. The review criteria of ECDC 20.20.010.13 are provided in italics below with staff's analysis of the proposal's compliance with each criterion stated following each criterion: 1. The temporary and permanent keeping of animals associated with a home occupation must comply with all provisions of Chapter 5.05 ECC, Animal Control, and ECDC Title 16. Staff's Anal: The subject proposal is for a home-based medical office, and the keeping of animals was not included as part of the proposal. As with all single-family residences, the subject property must comply with the animal control regulations of ECC 5.05 and ECDC Title 16 regardless of the establishment of the home occupation. This criterion has been met by the subject proposal. 2. The home occupation will not include storage, display of goods, building materials and/or the operation of building machinery, commercial vehicles or other tools, unless it meets all of the following criteria: a. Is wholly enclosed within a structure or building; and b. Does not emit noise, odor or heat; and c. Does not create glare or emit light from the site in violation of the city's performance criteria. Staff's Analysis: Per the applicant's criteria statements (Attachments 3 and 5), an existing room within the home will be converted into an office and treatment room. As such, treatment will be carried out entirely within the main structure on the site, without any significant outdoor activity. The site plan (Attachment 9) indicates that the medical office will be within an approximately 194 square foot room within the residence. Edmonds City Code (ECC) Chapter 5.30 contains regulations on the maximum permissible sound levels within residential districts. Since all activities associated with the home occupation are to take place indoors, it is not anticipated that the home occupation will exceed the maximum permissible sound levels. As with all activities taking place within the city, the standards of the noise ordinance must be met at all times. A condition has been added to this approval stating that individual elements of this project are required to meet all applicable city codes, which includes compliance with the noise standards of ECC 5.30. This criterion has been met by the subject proposal. 3. Does not create a condition which injures or endangers the comfort, or pose health or safety threats to persons on abutting properties or streets. Staff's Analysis: The proposal is for a small-scale, home-based medical office. All treatment is to take place within the existing residence. As such, the proposal should not pose a health or safety threat to the neighborhood. This criterion has been met by the subject proposal. Page 5 of 10 File No. PLN20120015 Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Home Occupation 4. Does not include visits to the site from more than one nonresident employee per day. Staff's Analysis: The applicant's criteria statements (Attachments 3 and 5) specify that she has no employees who would be visiting the site. Therefore, this criterion has been met by the subject proposal. S. Does not include visits from customers in excess of one vehicle per hour. Staff's Analysis: The applicant's criteria statements (Attachments 3 and 5) specify that her patient visits run 90 minutes and that she sees a maximum of five patients per day. Staff's request for additional information (Attachment 7) asked the applicant if she was planning on holding group sessions at any time. The applicant's response (Attachment 8) clarified that she will not be having any group sessions and that she will see no more than one patient every 90 minutes. As such, this criterion has been met by the subject proposal. 6. Does not include visits from customers between the hours of 9: 00 p. m. and 8: 00 a.m.. Staff's Anal: The applicant's criteria statements (Attachments 3 and 5) confirmed that customers will only be visiting the site between the hours of 9:30 am and 6:30 pm. Thus, this criterion has been met. 7. If visits to the site are to be made by either an off-site employee or customer, on-site parking shall be provided for at least three vehicles. Staff's Analysis: Refer to Section VIII.2 of this report for analysis of the proposal's compliance with the parking requirements. On-site parking is available for three vehicles. Therefore, this criterion has been met by the subject proposal. 8. No parking or storage is provided for more than one commercial vehicle or any commercial vehicle over 10, 000 pounds licensed gross vehicle weight per dwelling unit pursuant to ECDC 17.50.100. Staffs Anal.: A commercial vehicle over 10,000 pounds gross weight is not necessary for the proposed home occupation. The applicant's criteria statements (Attachments 3 and 5) confirm that no commercial vehicle will be used as part of the home occupation. This criterion has been met by the subject proposal. b. The sale or display of goods is restricted by ECDC 20.20.020(A). This section states that no goods shall be sold or rendered on the premises except instructional materials pertinent to the home occupation (e.g., music books). The applicant's original criteria statement (Attachment 3) stated that she would have a small dispensary, and her revised criteria statement (Attachment 5) clarified that she would have a small number of medical supplements available to her patients. Staff s request for additional information (Attachment 7) explained to the applicant that since medical supplements are not instructional materials, ECDC 20.20.020(A) prohibits the sale of medical supplements at the site. The Page 6 of 10 File No. PLN2012001 S Administrative Conditional Use Permit Huyck Home Occupation applicant's response (Attachment 8) confirmed that she no longer plans to sell medical supplements to her patients. c. ECDC 20.20.020(B) requires a building permit and a Type II Conditional Use Permit for any proposed commercial signage in a residential zone. A sign is allowed in conjunction with a home occupation approval and shall not exceed four square feet in size. This sign area shall be calculated as part of, not in addition to, the total sign area permitted on the site. The applicant's response submitted on September 10, 2012 states that she is not proposing to have a sign associated with the home occupation (Attachment 8). IX. TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE: This application was reviewed and evaluated by Snohomish County Fire District No. 1 as well as the City's Building and Engineering Divisions. Snohomish County Fire District No. 1 commented that the vegetation located along the access easement shall be cleared vertically to 13'6" pursuant to ECDC 19.25.005.B in order to provide clearance for fire access (Attachment 10). This has been added as a condition of approval. The Building Division had no comments, except that a building permit may be required depending on the work that the applicant plans to do to convert the existing room into an office (Attachment 11). The applicant is advised to contact the Building Division to discuss her plans for converting the room into an office and to determine if a building permit would be required. A condition has been added to this approval stating that it is the applicant's responsibility to obtain all necessary permits. The Engineering Division originally requested additional information and clarification from the applicant regarding the on-site parking and traffic impacts fees, which was included with staff's request for additional information sent on August 13, 2012 (Attachment 7). The applicant's written response (Attachment 8) and revised site plan (Attachment 9) addressed the Engineering Division's comments regarding the provision of on-site parking. The applicant's response requested an exception to the traffic impact fees set forth by the ITE land use category of medical office. The Engineering Division provided direction to the applicant in a memorandum dated September 24, 2012 (Attachment 12) for how the applicant could request an alternate traffic impact fee, which would need to be submitted to the City traffic engineer for a review fee of $200. Refer to Attachment 12 for additional direction on this item. A condition has been added to this approval requiring compliance with the traffic impact fee requirements. As always, a thorough review by all affected divisions/departments will be conducted at the time of business license application review. X. PUBLIC COMMENTS: ECDC 20.03 provides the City's regulations for public notice of land use applications. A "Notice of Application and Comment Period" dated July 12, 2012 (Attachment 13) was posted at the subject site, Public Safety Complex, Development Services Department, and Library on July 12, 2012. The notice was published in the Herald Newspaper on July 12, 2012. This notice was also mailed to residents within 300 feet of the site on July 12, Page 7 of 10 File No. PLN20120015 Administrative Conditional Use Permit Hueck Home Occupation 2012 using a mailing list provided by the applicant (Attachment 14). Declarations of posting and mailing are provided as Attachments 15 and 16 respectively, and an affidavit of publication is included as Attachment 17. One public comment letter was received during review of the proposal, which was received from Chad and Christine Rothschiller via email on July 23, 2012. Mr. and Mrs. Rothschiller raised concerns over increased traffic along 94th Avenue West, which is a one -lane private road. Their specific concerns over increased traffic were particularly related to visibility, the presence of children in the neighborhood, and the ability to back out of their driveway. Staff Response to Public Comments: The City's home occupation regulations were updated approximately one year ago under Ordinance No. 3840. The purpose of the update was to allow and encourage certain limited business activities in residential zones, while minimizing potential impacts on the surrounding residential neighborhood. Prior to adopting the new home occupation regulations, the Planning Board and City Council considered potential impacts to residential neighborhoods. Additionally, public hearings were held before the Planning Board and the City Council in order to obtain public input on concerns that neighbors may have over the establishment of a home occupation within their neighborhood. In order to minimize potential impacts of excessive noise, traffic, nuisance, and other potential negative impacts, the home occupation regulations contain limitations on the numbers of vehicles that may visit a site per hour, numbers of employees, hours of operation, etc. The purpose of these regulations (as discussed in detail in Section VIII.3 above) is to retain the residential character of a neighborhood and to minimize negative impacts on neighbors. This approval includes several conditions, including a limitation on visits from no more than one vehicle per hour, no parking within the shared vehicular access easement, and the requirement that a business license through the City Clerk's Office must first be obtained. During review of the business license application, each applicable division/department will review the business proposal to make sure that it is consistent with the conditions of this approval. XI. CONCLUSION: Based on the above analysis of the project proposal, it has been determined that the proposal is consistent with the applicable requirements of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC), particularly the requirements of the Single -Family Residential (RS -8) zone, the on-site parking requirements, and the home occupation requirements.

I currently have a practice in Mountlake Terrace but am looking to consolidate my resources and open a home office. Ey practicing out of my home I can continue to keep my overhead low which translates to more affordable fees and greater accessibility for people seeking care. I believe this is congruent with the Edmonds comprehensive plan and zoning laws regarding home occupations. Type U decision criteria for home occupation 1) My practice does not include either temporary or permanent keeping of animals. 2) I will have a small dispensary that meets the criteria of being enclosed, emitting no odors, light, noise, or glare. 3) I do not pose any health or safety threat to the neighborhood and actually can support the health and well being of others. 4) I will be converting an already existing room into an office and treatment room and will have no employees. 5) My patient visits run 90 minutes and I see a maximum of five patients a day between the hours of 9:30am and 6:30pm. 6) The home has four parking spaces available and there will be no commercial vehicle used. I believe my business meets all criteria for approval of a home occupation. If you need more information please contact me and I would be happy to comply with any request. Aimee Huyck ND, PT docaimgcomcast.net 206-777-5971 ATTACHMENT Coccia, Gina From: Coccia, Gina Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2012 4:54 PM To: 'DocAim' Cc: Machuga, Jen; Cunningham, Diane Subject: PLN20120015 - Aimee Huyck Home Occupation CUP Hi Aimee, Jen Machuga is the planner assigned to your conditional use permit for a home occupation, but I'm writing on her behalf to ask for a few items. One thing that we need to route the application to the other departments (for their feedback) is a site plan. The site plan is a map that shows us that the property can accommodate 3 parking stalls. The City of Edmonds Engineering Division will tell you that parking stalls are required to be at least 8.5' x 16.5'. 1 took the time to create a map template for you, in case you don't have a site plan to submit. I figured this would be a good starting point. Please take a look at the link below and mark them up with a nice bold dark pen to indicate where the building footprint is located and where the parking spaces are located within the property lines. Please also call out the paved "driveway" surface area so our Engineering Department can see how the site is accessed. Aerial Map, 1"=30': https://Permits.edmonds.wa.us/Data/Live//PERMIT/PMT 70933/93b6fb4522d4425dac89b6f6cOc52a2b.pdf Also, I realized we needed a little more information on your criteria statement. The criteria statement you submitted is for conditional use permits, which is great, but please also address the following applicable requirements of the home occupation chapter, ECDC 20.20.010.6 below. Please go through item by item and discuss how your proposal meets these criteria. ECDC 20.20.010.6.

Sincerely, Gina Coccia o a Associate Planner City of Edmonds Development Services Department 121 5`1' Avenue North, Edmonds WA 98020 425.771.0220 x 1778 1 www.EdmonclsWA.gov City of EdmondsTj June 7, 2012 x Jt i PLAMVI D&p o_ Criteria Statement I am a licensed naturopathic doctor and physical therapist living in Edmonds for the last 18 months. I currently have a practice in Mountlake Terrace but am looking to consolidate my resources and open a home office. By practicing out of my home I can continue to keep my overhead low which translates to more affordable fees and greater accessibility for people seeking care. I will be using space within the home as my office space with no additional construction or building required. As a naturopathic physician I serve the health and well being of my community and patients with no adverse impact on my neighborhood or city. I believe this is congruent with the Edmonds comprehensive plan and zoning laws regarding home occupations. I am not proposing for this permit to be transferrable. Type II decision criteria for home occupation 1) My practice does not include either temporary or permanent keeping of animals. 2) I will keep a small number of natural supplements in my office to support my patient's medical treatment. This does not include medical marijuana. I will not have a retail space or be selling goods to the general public. 3) I will meet the criteria of emitting no additional odors, light, noise, or glare. 4) I do not pose any health or safety threat to the neighborhood and actually can support the health and well being of others. 5) I will be converting an already existing room into an office and treatment room and will have no employees. 6) My patient visits run 90 minutes. 7) I see a maximum of five patients a day between the hours of 9:30am and 6:30pm. 8) The home has four parking spaces available and there will be no commercial vehicle used. I believe my business meets all criteria for approval of a home occupation. If you need more information please contact me and I would be happy to comply with.any request. .

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT August 13, 2012 Ms. Aimee Huyck 23005 — 94th Ave. W Edmonds, WA 98020 �,; •.PAII Dear Ms. Huyck: DAVE EARLING MAYOR Your land use application for a home-based medical office located at 23005 94th Avenue West under File No. PLN20120015 became complete on June 29, 2012; however, it was determined that additional information/clarification is necessary. Please provide responses to the following items at your earliest convenience so that staff's review of the proposal can continue: Refer to the enclosed memorandum from Jeanie McConnell, Engineering Program Manager, dated August 10, 2012. The items in Ms. McConnell's memo will need to be addressed before review by the Engineering Division can continue. 2. The code limits visits to the site to no more than one vehicle per hour. I believe that your intention is to only see one patient at a time (for a 90 minute session as stated in your cover letter), but I wanted to make sure that you are not planning on having any group sessions where more than one customer vehicle would visit the site at any given time. Can you please confirm if visits to the site are proposed to exceed the limit of one vehicle per hour? 3: Please confirm if your proposed business would include any outside storage of equipment or materials. 4. Are you proposing to have a sign as part of your business? If so, please note that a conditional use permit is required for signage associated with a home occupation, so it would be best to include it with the subject application at this time. Refer to ECDC 20.20.020.11 for the regulations related to signage for home occupations. 5. I understand that you would like to be able to sell natural supplements to your patients; however, the code (ECDC 20.20.020.A) specifically prohibits the sale of goods on site except for instructional materials pertinent to the home occupation,, such as music books. Since the supplements are not instructional materials, please note that you will not be able.to sell them directly to your patients when they come in for their visits: Incorporated August 11, 1890 Sister City - Hekinan, Japan ATTACHMENT Please submit responses to the above items as soon as possible, so that staff may continue .processing your application. Please keep in mind that a complete response to this information request must be received within 90 days or the application will lapse for lack of information (ECDC 20.02.003.D). Thus, your application will expire if the requested information is not received by November 12, 2012. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me at (425) 771-0220, extension 1224.

W Edmonds, WA 98026 Page 2 of 2 Date: To: From: Subject: August 10, 2012 Jen Machuga, Planner Jeanie McConnell, Engineering Program Manage PlLN20120015 — Conditional Use Permit for Hoare Occupation Aimee Huyck — 23005 94th Ave W The comments provided below are based upon a site visit and review of the application and docuinents submitted for the Conditional Use Permit for a Home Occupation for a Naturopathic Dr. and Physical Therapist at 23005-94t" Ave W. Additional. information is requested from the applicant at this time. Please ask the applicant to respond to the following. A minimum of 3 parking spaces shall be provided on the site along with an on-site turnaround. Please confum the measurements provided on the site plan submitted on June 15tn are reflective of the actual pavement area. Upon a site visit the actual pavement dimensions seem to be significantly less than what was indicated on the plans. Please revise the site plan and. indicate how the parking requirements can be met. Parking spaces shall measure 81/2 feet in width x 161/2 feet in length and no more than two of the spaces can be tandem (stacked). The proposed use of the property expands the traffic volumes beyond typical single family residential traffic. Trak impact fees will be required based on the square footage of the proposed business space. Please refer to City handout E82 found on the City website at: http://www.edmondswa.gov/images/COE/Services/Perrnits and Development/Forms and H andouts/E82-Traffic Analysis Worksheet.pdf The proposed use would fall under the ITE Land Use Category of Medical Office. Thank you. City of Edinonds Aimee Huyck 23005 94`h avenue west September 10, 2012 RESPONSE TO CITY OF EDMONDS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR PROPOSED HOME OCCUPATION: PLN20120015 1) Met with Jeanie McConnell at the proposed home business address on 8/ 24/2012. Revised site plan per Ms. McConnell's recommendations which now includes three parking spaces and an onsite turn around. See revised site plan 2) I will be seeing no more than one patient every 90 minutes and will not be having any group sessions. 3) My business will not include any outside storage or equipment or materials. 4) I will not be having a sign as part of my business. 5) I will forego selling products to my patients Regarding Traffic Impact Fees 1) Ms. McConnell has recommended that my proposed use fall under the ITE land use category of medical office. I do not agree with this categorization because the trip rate for a medical office category is 3.46 cars/hour while I am not allowed more than 1 car/hour. Since the traffic fees are then calculated based on this trip rate that would tax me excessively and unfairly. An impact fee based on a trip rate of 1 car/hour is a more equitable solution.

The applicant has since revised their site plan showing compliance with the parking requirements. In addition, the August 10th comments required traffic impact fees to be paid consistent with City Code and handout E82. With the current submittal the applicant is requesting to not use the ITE Land Use Category of Medical Office. In order for the .City to consider an alternate traffic impact fee an independent fee calculation prepared by a traffic consultant would need to be submitted to the City for review and approval. The fee for the City traffic engineer to review this document would be $200.

I'm wondering whether there will be any increase in vehicle traffic on that segment of 94th Ave W. Is the business going to service patients who will drive to that address/house? As you know, this segment of 94th Ave W is a narrow, one -lane private road. There are a number of kids who play in the area (4 at our house, 2 more directly across from our driveway in another house), and visibility isn't that great. I'm even concerned that backing out of my driveway could be hazardous, especially if there were an increase in the number of cars going along there. Do you have additional information or estimates from the owner about number of vehicles expected on a daily basis, or more specifically what kind of medical office it will be? Thank you for reading my concerns, and any comments you might have. Sincerely, Chad & Christine Rothschiller 23109 941h Ave W Edmonds, WA 98020 ATTACHMENT 18 I/7Z nnt7
