Montgomery Avenue, Spokane, Washington. The site is currently developed with a commercial car wash facility, self-storage and outdoor storage for trucks and recreational vehicles. Greg McCormick., Long Range Planning Manager, explained that the property owner requested a change in land use designation from Low Density Residential to regional Commercial and a change in zoning 2 designation from Urban Residential 7 (UR-7) to Regional Business (13-3). The subject property was zoned commercial in 1970, but was rezoned under the recent Spokane County Comprehensive flan and subsequent Phase I Zoning process. Staff Recommendation: Change land use designation to Community Center, consistent with adjacent properties. Apply the Community Business (B-2) zone consistent with the Phase 1 Development Regulations. All current uses on the property are allowed in the B-2 zone. Applicant Testimony: Gib Brumback, 8915 E. Montgomery, Spokane `'alley, WA The property was zoned B-3 twenty years ago. Two years ago the zone was changed to residential. Now the zoning and land use are out of whack. Mr. Brumback's original request was to restore the land to B-3 zoning status, but he will be satisfied with B-2 zoning. Public Testimony: Al Bevacqua, 8820 E. Montgomery, Spokane Valley, WA Mr. Bevacqua is an opponent of CPA-03-01. He complained of trucks which regularly park on the street across from his residence and outside Mr. Brumback's commercial car wash. He provided the Commission copies of a letter dated December 7, 2000, written to Mr. Brumback by James Richardson, Associate Planner of Spokane County, addressing code violation complaints. He also provided a letter dated August 28, 2003, outlining his personal reasons for opposing CPA.-03-01. Both documents were placed into permanent record. Mr. Bevacqua shared Polaroid photos of some of the more common problems experienced with trucks that are regularly parked outside of fix. Brumback's property. He strongly recommended that the Planning Commission vote against CPA-03-O1. Chairman Gothmann closed the hearing for CPA-03-O1 to further public testimony. Applicant Response: Gib Brumback assured the Planning Commission that he and his staff do everything they can to keep the street clear of unauthorized vehicles, although success can be difficult on weekends.

The motion passed unanimously. 3 i i CPA-03-02: The subject property is located on the south side of Appleway Boulevard, east of its intersection of Park Road and is approximately 3 acres in sire. Subject property is currently vacant. Mr. McCormick explained that the applicant is requesting a change of land use designation fi-om'Neighborhood Commercial to Regional Commercial and zoning from Neighborhood Business (13-1) to Regional Business (B- 3). The main issue concerning this property is the potential impact conmiercial development will have on the Dishman Hills Natural Area, located south of the site. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends designating the property Conununity Commercial and applying the Community Business (13-2) zone, which will allow more flexibility and marketability to the site, but will limit the adverse impacts that could result under a Regional Commercial designation and B-3 zone. Applicant Testimony: Edwin Repp, Associated Restaurants, 4512 S. NMadelia Street, Spokane, WA Mr. Repp noted that there had been a history of zoning actions concerning the property. He noted that the triangle of land is located on a highly traveled arterial, and the present -tuning won't allow for development by a business. Mr. Repp urged the Commission to adopt the staff reconunendation. Public Testimony: A9 chael Hamilton, 3415 S. Lincoln Drive, Spokane, WA Mr. Hamilton testified on behalf of the Dishman Hills Natural Association in opposition to CFA-03-02. He expressed concern that conu-nercial development of the tract would have an adverse impact on the Natural Area's fragile envirocunent. Tom Rosseau, 7918 E. Sprague, Spokane Valley, WA Mr. Rosseau is opposed to C.PA-03-02. His email letter was entered into public record. Mr. Rosseau is in favor of preserving what little undeveloped space is left: for Spokane Valley to preserve the native environment. Claudia Hamilton, 3415 S. Lincoln Drive, Spokane WA Opposed CPA-03-01, but did not wish to speak.

Raymond Circle, Spokane, WA Mr. Repp affirmed that the subject property is buffered from the Dishman Hills Natural Area by rock formations and 7 acres of UR-3.5 land to the south and cast. The land is owned by the Repp family. Mr. McCon-nick reminded the Planning Commission that there are layers of protection built into the planning system for sensitive areas such as this. Before any development can occur on the subject property, detailed development plans must be submitted and would likely require a State Environmental Protection Act (SEPA) review. It ►vas moved by Commissioner Crosby and seconded by Commissioner Blum that the Planning; Commission approve the staff recommendation for CPA-03-02 to designate the property Community Commercial and apphp the .B-2 zone. Commissioners Beaulac, Blunt, Carroll, Crosby, Kogle and Robertson voted in favor of the motion. Chairman Gothmann opposed. Motion passed 6-1.

Konen, Storhaug Engineering, N. 1322 Monroe, Spokane, WA Mr. Konen spoke as a representative of Thomas S. Smith, property owner. He explained that the planning staff at the City of Spokane once thought the land would be suitable for apartments, but time has proven that this is not appropriate.

St. Charles, Spokane, WA Mr. Warner is one of the property owners in favor of CPA-03-03. He submitted a card, but did not wish to speak. Public Testimony: There was no Public Testimony on CPA-03-03.

It is comprised of approximately 2.57 acres and is currently developed with an enclosed golf practice facility. N lr. McCormick explained that the subject property was overlooked during the County's 2002 Comprehensive Plan update, and was therefore changed from Regional Commercial with a zoning designation of Regional Business (I3-3) to Low Density Residential with a zoning of Urban Residential 7 (UR-7). This resulted in the existing use becoming "nonconf.'orming".
