Sign tune of App cant, Owner or Repr_isentative Roger 011enburg Construction Manager DECLARATIONS OF APPLICANT Please answer all questions 1. What are the physical characteristics, (i.e. topography, shape of lot, etc.) which create a hardship for you in regard to development of your property? This is a retail gasoline sales facility containing a canopy covered gasoline dis- pensing area with a small building for'the sales attendant. Using building wall to determine allowable sign area results in exceedingly small area, an area much I smaller than existing sign being replaced. 2. How does your property differ from other property in the same vicinity? ,although the property is similar to other commercial property, the small building related to large covered area is different than other enclosed buildings. 3. Will this variance be detrimental to the public or damaging to other property or improvements in the vicinity? No, as the requested sign is not larger than other adjacent business signs. Also, the resulting area is the same as sign being replaced. 4. What hardships will result to you if the variance is not granted? Will these hardships have been caused by your own action? The existing business cannot remain economically viable without displaying name, and applicable laws require sales prices to be displayed. 5. Can you make reasonable use of your property without the variance? Only if we completely rebuild the existing damaged sign. a M H m �G W Al •ieai�v rat eo Z5 trri ir1.1 - 3 6 ry Ne. /c4. k0 ` H /O o " o CS o_ • LEGAL DESCRIPTION y .y r !

FOR APPROVAL OF A VARIANCE DECISION: The variance request is denied. INTRODUCTION Gull Industries, Inc., P.O. Box 24687, Seattle, Washington, 98134, and hereinafter referred to as Applicant, has requested a variance from the maximum area for signs a llceed in a BN zone. The Appli- cant seeks a 36 square foot freestanding sign which is in excess of the allowed area for signs by 1.2 square feet. A hearing on the request was held before the Hearing Examiner of -the City of Edmonds on March 6, 1986. At the hearing the following presented testimony and evidence: Duane Bowman Mr. 011enburg Planning Dept. City of Edmonds Edmonds, WA 98020 The following exhibits were submitted at the public hearing as part of the official record of these proceedings: Exhibit 1 - Staff Report " 2 - Application/Declarations 3 - Legal Description " 4 - Site Plan 5 - Photographs of Existing Sign " 6 - Cross -Section of Site with Sign it 7 - Proposed Sign Elevation " 8 - Vicinity Map If 9 - Brochure of Applicant submitted to the ADB if 10 - Sign Blueprints of the 24 sq. ft. Sign After due consideration of the evidence presented by the Applicant; evidence elicited during the public hearing; and, as a result of the personal inspection of the subject property and surrounding areas by the Hearing Examiner, the following Findings of Fact and Conclusions constitute the basis of the decision of the Hearing Examiner. FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The application is for the approval of a variance to allow a freestanding sign at 10119 Edmonds Way, Edmonds, Washington, to exceed the maximum allowed 24 square foot freestanding sign by an additional 12 square feet.

Findings and Decisi of the Hearing Examiner of the City of Edmonds Re: V-5-86 Page 2 a 36 square foot freestanding sign to be located on the subject property. (Staff report.) 2. The subject property is zoned Neighborhood Business (BN). Section 20.60.040(B) of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) sets the maximum area for freestanding signs in a BN zone at 24 square feet. it is from this section of the ECDC that the Applicant seeks a variance. (Bowman testimony.) 3. The Applicant is an oil company that operates a gas station on the subject property. It is the intent of the Applicant to construct a 36 square foot freestanding sign that will con- sist of two separate panels. The top panel will identify the Gull Gas Station and the lower panel will set forth the prices of the various gasoline•on site. (011enburg testimony.) 4. The subject property is a triangular -shaped lot that is located on the east side of State Route 104 in the City of Edmonds. It consists of a small gas station facility and a covered pump island. Until recently there was a non -conforming 32- square foot freestanding sign on site. This sign was damaged beyond repair by vandals. It is the intent of the Applicant to replace the damaged sign with a 36 square foot sign. (Staff report and 011enburg testimony.) 5. In order for a variance to be granted within the City of Edmonds the criteria as set forth in Section 20.85.010 of the ECDC must be satisfied. These criteria include: A. Special circumstances relating to the property must exist necessitating the variance; B. The required variance must not result in a special privilege being granted to the Applicant; C. The variance must be consistent with the Comprehensive Policy Plan Map of the City of Edmonds; D. The variance must be consistent with the purposes of the zone district in which the property is located; E. The variance must not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, nor injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity of the same zone; and, F. The variance must be the minimum necessary to allow the same rights enjoyed by other properties in the same zone. (ECDC.) 6. The Planning Department submitted that the allowable sign area for the business on the subject property should be cal- culated off the small attendant building which is located on 1 0 Findings and Decisi . of the Hearing Examiner of the City of Edmonds Re: V-5-86 Page 3 site. To calculate as such puts the Applicant at a disadvantage because of the size of the other businesses and buildings in the area. (Bowman and O1lenburg testimony.) 7. The Planning Department submitted that the requested variance would not be the grant of a special privilege to the Applicant. (Bowman testimony.) 8. The Planning Department submitted that the requested variance does not conflict with the purposes of the Comprehensive Plan which designates the subject property as High Density Resi- dential. Further, the Planning Department submitted that the requested variance is consistent with the zoning ordinances of the City of Edmonds and the BN zone. (Staff report.) 9. The Planning Department submitted that the proposed variance does not create a significant impact to the public, nor to nearby private properties or improvements. (Staff report.) 10. The Planning Department submitted that the only criterion that is not satisfied by the variance request is that the requested variance does not appear to represent the minimum necessary to allow the Applicants the same rights enjoyed by other pro- perty owners in the same zone. Because of the exposure to the traffic on Edmonds Way and the allowed 24 square foot sign requirements for BN zones, the Planning Department submitted that a 24 square foot sign is adequate to identify the subject property. (Bowman testimony.) 11. The Applicant submitted that if the original sign had not been destroyed by vandals it was their intent to remove it and re- place the sign with a new base. The reasoning for the replace- ment was to provide more exposure for the gas station. (011en- burg testimony.) 12. The Applicant submitted that a 24 square foot sign would result in the reduction of the Gull logo on the sign and also smaller numbers for the advertising of the prices of gasoline. Accord- ing to the Applicant, this reduction will not be beneficial to the business on site. (011enburg testimony.) 13. The sign as proposed by the Applicant would have a six-foot wide face on the two panels of the sign and would be six foot, one inch, in length. In addition, the face of the sign would be 7' 1.1" above grade. The sign would be illuminated from the interior and would have a plastic face. (Exhibit 9.) 14. The Applicant submitted that the design of the sign can be altered somewhat, but it is dependent upon the size of the illuminating lamp for the exact size. According to the Ap- plicant, a 24 square foot sign would have smaller lamps for illumination. (011enburg testimony.) Findings and Decid .t of the Hearing Examiner of the City of Edmonds Re: V-5-86 Page 4 15. The Planning Department of the City of Edmonds recommended denial of the variance. In the recommendation the Planning Department stated: It is the staff's recommendation that the Applicant be allowed to either replace the existing sign with a new 24 square foot freestanding sign or that the present sign be repaired, as it was originally approved by the City under ADB-36-77. (Staff report.) 16. No other testimony was submitted at the public hearing. CONCLUSIONS 1. The application is for the approval of a variance to allow a freestanding sign on property located at 10119 Edmonds Way, Edmonds, Washington, to exceed the 24 square foot area standard for BN zoned properties. The specific request is for the al- lowance of a 36 square foot sign on the subject property. 2. In order for a variance to be granted within the City of Edmonds the criteria as set forth in Section 20.85.010 of the ECDC must be satisfied. All of the criteria of that section must be satisfied. The request of the Applicant does not satisfy all the criteria of Section 20.85.010 of the ECDC. 3. Special circumstances do exist for the granting of a variance. The Applicant's original nonconforming sign of 32 square feet was destroyed by vandals and was not the act of the Applicant. As a result, the Applicant must replace the sign. In addition, the size of the Applicant's structure in comparison with other structures in the vicinity warrant the granting of a larger sign than the allowable 24 square feet. However, the circum- stances do not warrant the granting of a variance for a 36 square foot sign. 4. The granting of a 36 square foot sign will be the grant of a special privilege to the Applicant. The Applicant could utilize the base and the 32 square foot existing sign. 5. The requested variance does not conform to the standards of the zoning ordinances of. the City of Edmonds or the BN zoning standards for the City of Edmonds. 6. The granting of a variance will not be detrimental to the sub- ject property or to other properties in the vicinity. 7. The variance requested is not the minimum necessary for the Applicant to properly erect the sign that identifies the pro- perty. The Applicant should be allowed to replace the exist- ing sign with a 24 square foot freestanding sign, or repair the existing 32 square foot sign and use that sign for adver- tising purposes. 4 .... .i. ....".Y� .ter. .� :. ,:. ,, ,. .. ., �.... ....... .... .. .. ,._.. ..L.,_.�_.. ...c .. .+.n... ...�.,.. r.....n .. .._..�.-_ .. ..,..........w .._ .. _._..,....}.+.L...�...._,..w.. ...., _ _.... Findings and Decisi .,�i of the Hearing Examiner of the City of Edmonds Re. V-5-86 Page 5 DECISION Based upon the preceding Findings of Fact and Conclusions; the testimony and evidence submitted at the public hearing; and, upon the impressions of the Hearing Examiner, the requested variance for a 36 square foot freestanding sign to be located at 10119 Edmonds Way, Edmonds, Washington, is denied. However, the Appli- cant 'is allowed to erect a 24 square foot sign per the Edmonds Community Development Code standards for signs in BN zoned pro- perty, or to repair the existing sign and use the 32 square foot sign. COMMENTS The Hearing Examiner has adopted the position of the Planning Department of the City of Edmonds for the request of the Appli- cant for the variance to allow a 36 square foot sign. The Appli- cant's situation is not self-imposed and it is appreciated that circumstances beyond the control of the Applicant have created the situation for a new sign. Vandals destroyed the original sign and now the Applicant must replace the sign. It must be noted, however, that the original sign was a nonconforming sign of 32 square feet that exceeded the BN zone requirements fob freestanding signs by 8 square feet. To allow the Applicant to replace the nonconforming large sign with a sign that is four square feet larger does not appear to be justified or reasonable. To do so would disrupt the sign standards for the City of Edmonds. Accordingly, the Applicant should be required to meet the standards for signs in BN zones or to use the existing nonconforming sign structure for the new sign.

REQUESTED ACTION: Variance to allow a 36 sq. ft. freestanding sign instead of the maximum allowed 24 sq. ft. for the gas station located at 10119 Edmonds Way, Edmonds. II. APPLICANT/OWNER: Gull Industries, Inc. Attn: Steve Mortensen P.O. Box 24687 Seattle, WA 98134 III. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: See Exhibit 3 IV. STAFF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS: A. Descri tion of the Subject Property and Surrounding Area + The subject property is a triangular_ shaped lot located on the east side of SR 104, across from the McDonalds restaurant. The station consists of a small station attendant building and a covered pump island. }, The gas station was built under CU-26-77 and building permit #770351. A variance was granted to allow the gas canopy to project 101into the then required 30' setback The Applicant is seeking to replace the existing damaged freestanding sign with a new sign. The existing sign is a nonconforming 32 sq. ft. freestanding sign. The intended replacement sign is 36 sq. ft. in area. Surrounding development is primarily commercial, with the exception of the single family development to the north. B. Official Street Map Proposed R/W Existing R/W West - Edmonds Way 70' 70' C. Conformance to Chapter 20.85.010 M 4. Staff Report Page 2 V-5-86 1. Special Circumstances The subject property is developed as a self service station with a small station attendant building and gas canopy. Allowable sign area is calculated off the attendant building which puts the station at a disadvantage with other businesses in the area. Special circumstances do appear to exist in this particular case to allow for increased sign area. They do not however warrant increasing the sign area over that which presently exists. 2. S cial Privilege As conditioned, the proposed variance does not appear to represent a grant of special privilege. 3. Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Policy Plan map designates the subject property as High Density Residential, as are all the adjoining properties to the north and west. The properties to the south and east are designated as Commercial/Business. The proposed variance,as conditioned, does not appear to conflict with the purposes of the Comprehensive Plan. 4. Zoning Ordinance The subject property, as well as the surrounding area to the south, west and east are zoned BN. To the north is RS-20 and RS-6 zoning. The proposed variance, as conditioned, does not appear to conflict with the purposes of the zoning ordinance or the BN zone district. 5. Not Detrimental The proposed variance does not appear to pose any significant impact to the public or to any near by private property or improvement. 6. Minimum Variance The requested variance does not appear to represent a minimum variance request. While the building on which 0 Staff Report V-5-86 Page 3 sign area is calculated is very small, this does not warrant exceeding the code required 24 sq. ft. V . STAFF RECOMMENDATION: : Staff cannot support the proposed variance request. It is the staff's reconunendation that the Applicant be allowed to either replace the existing sign with a new 24 sq. ft. freestanding sign or that the present sign be repaired, as it was originally approved by the City under ADB-36-77. k Gull
