VI I I The proposed redevelopment of Building D to include a drive-in business is a compatible use given the site's Comprehensive Plan designation. The project fits well within the context of the existing developed site as well as with the larger 1' s!Tedicalighway 99 Activity Center due its proximity to Stevens Hospital. PUBLIC COMMENTS To date, no public comments have been received on the subject proposal. APPLICABLE CODES A. ECDC 16.45 BN— Neighborhood B sloes: Pursuant to ECDC 16.45.010.0.2, drive-in businesses are primary permitted uses that require a conditional use permit. The applicant has filed the subject application for a conditional use pennit in compliance with ECDC 20.05. B. ECDC 17.50 Wff Street harking Reyulafions) ECDC I7.50.020.B.I requires retail stores to provide parking at a rate of one space per 300 square feet. As noted before, the Snohomish County Assessor indicates Building D is 909 square feet. Because Building D was previously used as a medical office which required one parking space per 200 square, it is assumed that parking will be sufficient for the drive-in business. There are approximately 74 parking spaces currently available on site. Compliance will be verified at building permit.. C. ECDC 20.05 (Co naditiynaI U.se Permits) ECDC 20.05,010 contains the following review and approval criteria for Conditional Use Permits: A. That the proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Flan. B. That the proposed use, and its location, is consistent with, the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the purposes of the zone district in which the use is to be located, and that the proposed use will meet all applicable requirements of the zoning ordinance. Page 4ofb Oasis, tne., Drive -Up Window File No. CU -2009-37 C. That the use, as approved or conditionally approved, will not be significantly detrimental to the publie health, safety and welfare, and to nearby private property or improvements unless the use is a public necessity. D, The hearing examiner shall determine whether the conditional use permit shall ram with the land or shall be personal If it reins with the land and the hearing examiner finds it in the public interest, the hearing examiner~ may require that it be recorded in the form o f a covenant with the Snohomish County auditor. The hearing examiner may also determine whether the conditional use permit may or may not be used by a subsequent user of the same property. The applicant has submitted a Criteria Statement (Attachment 15) outlining how the proposal. meets the above criteria. Staff generally agrees with the applicant's description. A. As indicated in Section V111 of this report, the proposed drive-in business is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. B. As discussed in Section X, the drive-in business is consistent with the City's zoning code as long as the proposed conditional use permit is approved. Existing access to the site is adequate and parking and drive aisle requirements will be confinned at building permit. Ca As proposed, the proposed drive-in business does not appear to be detrimental to the neighborhood since it will be located within an existing building on an existing developed site. D. This permit should not be personal to the applicant and may run with the land. Based on the analysis and Attachment with this report, staff recommends APPROVAL of the conditional use permit for a drive-in window in Building D at 7631 212`°' Street SW with the following conditions: A. This conditional use permit shall be valid only when the associated rezone request (li.-09-36) is approved by the Edmonds City Council in ordinance form. B. This application is subject to the applicable requirements contained in the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) and it is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure compliance with the various provisions contained in these ordinances. CA This conditional use permit to operate a drive-through window in Building D at 7631 212'x' Street SW should run with the land.

Mukilteo, x.98275 June 3, 2009 The proposal is to rezone the entirety of tax parcel 00614300001701, located at 7631 — 212 1h St. SW, to BN - Neighborhood Business. This rezone will enable the existing! medical / professional office buildings to no longer be nonconforming uses in a residential zone. The rezone to BN - Neighborhood Business will also enable one vacant building, the most southerly building, to be utilized as a retail pharmacy. The proposal is to obtain a conditional use permit to construct and operate one drive up window in said proposed pharmacy.

Whether the proposal is consistent with the comprehensive plan. - The requested BN -Neighborhood Business zoning is an implementing zone of the Comprehensive Plan's designation of this area a "Medical / Highway 99, Activity Center. B. Zoning Ordinance. Whether the proposal is consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance, and whether the proposal is consistent with the purposes of the proposed zone district. The proposal is consistent with the requested zoning by providing permitted primary uses such as: neighborhood retail stores (the proposed pharmacy) offices and outpatient clinics. The proposal is consistent with the requested zoning by providing uses requiring a conditional use permit such as a drive-in business (the proposed pharmacy's drive -,up window). C. Surrounding Area. The relationship of the proposed zoning change to the existing land uses and zoning of surrounding or nearby property. Phone: (425) 265-1558 & (425) 347-4627 Attachment 15 Cell: (425) 359-4416 e-mail: gwc.consulting@verizon.net CU -09-37 Properties to the east and southeast currently enjoy BN zoning with uses ranging from fast food to medical centers. Properties to the west and north are occupied by multi -family dwelling units that have abutted the site and its existing uses for many years — as has Edmonds Woodway High School to the south. D. Changes. Whether there has been sufficient change, in the character of the immediate or surrounding area or in the city policy to justify the rezone. The changes, in the character of the immediate area took place several years ago when the existing on-site buildings were constructed, the fast food restaurant was constructed, and various medical buildings were constructed. The proposed rezone will bring the site into compliance with the existing uses. E. Suitability. Whether the property is economically and physically suitable, for the uses allowed under the existing zoning, and under the proposed zoning. One factor could be the length of time the property has remained undeveloped compared to the surrounding area, and parcels elsewhere with the same zoning. The site has not conformed to the current RM -2.4 zoning use since the zoning was implemented. By observation, the site is economically and physically suitable for the proposed zoning. The second criteria does, not apply. F. Value, The relative gain to the public health, safety and welfare compared to the potential increase or decrease in value to the property owners. The, public will benefit by the rezoning the site to comply with the existing uses and by providing, a much, needed locally owned retail pharmacy within the City of Edmonds - within walking distance to several medical providers. As the existing buildings and current uses already exist, with the, exception of the pharmacy, there will be minimal increase or decrease in value to the property owner, Oasis, Inc. or neighboring properties due to the rezone, I EMEMME 91®.99199:9® 0 M ®®19®9'.99 mown MISMUMAMMERMSERM 0 ®919 '.991919 own M IMMURNMEMN MoMMM MMENSERMEM M 0 ME Chapter 20.05 Conditional Use Permit decision criteria to be used bg- Examiner. A. That the proposed use is consistent with, the comprehensive plan. The Medical / Highway 99 Activity Center designation lists several: benefits that the proposal provides, including- The inclusion of a pharmacy with drive -up window located within a mixed' use complex-, located within a pedestrian friendly site served by public transit; while providing a more active and vital setting for new retail, office, and service businesses, supported by nearby residents and visitors from other parts of the reglion; and supporting a mix of uses without encroaching into single family neighborhoods. 19 B, Zoning Ordinance. That the proposed use, and its location, is consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the purposes of the zone district in which the use is to be located, and that the proposed use will meet all applicable requirements of the zoning ordinance. The proposed use, a drive up pharmacy window, is consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the proposed BN — Neighborhood Business zoning. C. Not Detrimental. That the use, as approved or conditionally approved, will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, and to the nearby private property or improvements unless the use is a public necessity. The proposed use will promote public health, safety and welfare by providing a drive up window at a locally owned pharmacy. This will be a convenience for sick or disabled persons who need to fill a prescription without leaving their vehicle. D. Transferability. The hearing examiner shall determine whether the conditional use permit shall run with the land or shall be personal. If it runs with the land and the hearing examiner finds it in the public interest, the hearing examiner may require that it be recorded in the form of a covenant with the Snohomish County auditor. The hearing examiner may also determine whether the conditional use permit may or may not be sued by a subsequent user of the same property. It is requested that the drive up windlow be conditioned such that subsequent owners and/or pharmacists, if any, be allowed to continue using the drive up window as long as they desire. "I I
