To: Spokane County Planning Commission
From s Mr. and Mrs . Donald Swanson
Owners of property at S. 520 Pines Road
In regard to the zone change being applied for by Cox
& Bates Realty, we are in favor of this zone change
from "agricultural suburban" to "local business."
We feel that South Pines in this area is not good resi-
dential property any longer, and that the present useage
is tending more and more toward business ventures. We
would lf.ke to see small stores and shops located in this
area for the convenience of the people living south of
Sprague Avenue.
53.ncerely yours,
JV_r~

Dear Sirs,
As I. live and own the house just three
d oors North of the property on Pines Road
that is to be made into a business complex
I would like to put in writing that I
wculd have no objections to t'nis.
T'Inank you for the courtesy of asking me
for thie informatlon•
Very triuly yours 9

October 5, 1977
To: Spokane County Planning Commission:
From: Herbert W. Aller owner of property located at
421 3onth Pines Road, Opportunitp, Wash.
It is my understanding that your office is considering
the matter of re-zoning from resldential to TMsma11 Busi-
ness" or "local business" the propertp located in the 500
block on Sonth Pines Road being developed by realtors,
Cox & Bates.
My wife and I realize that the propertZes in this immed-
iate area are coming under pressure for commercial use
and are less desirable for residential use. We accept
this trend as inevitable.
We do not object to the re-zoning of the property in
question as long as there is a definite restriction on
the sale of beer and hard liquor in the "small business"
set-up.
Our principal eoneern is that traffic controls are pro-
vided or taken into account as high deasitp traffic in-
creases an proportion to population and business growth
on South Pines Road.
Sincerelp,
H

lhis request was reviewed by the Planning Commission on September 16, 1977.
rhe Commission continued the proposal for two (2) months to allow the Spokane
County Prosecutor's Office and the Planning Department Staff an opportunity to
investigate and determine if this zone change request would constxtute a spot
zone, an illegal change.

consistent with the Spokane Regional Comprehensive Plan, has poor circulation
and can provide adequate provf sions for sewage disposal, water and #ire pro-

B. Sewage Disposa.l
1'his project is located in an area with soils classified by the Sofl
Consexvation Service as suitable far installatfon of individual on-site
sewage disposal systems. ~,`he area is, however, located over the
Spokane Valley Aquifer. A study is currently under way to determine the
degree to which subsurface disposal of sewage treatment zffluent may
pollute the Aquifer. There is very little probability that thf s projecbin
itself will have more than a slaght impact on the Aquffer. However,
taken in conjunction with the overall urbanization of the area, some
othe r sewafje di sposal method will most likely be required in the future.

Staff Report on Progress of Comprehensive Plan Update and Coordinating
Co mmittee' s Work.
Mr Fergen explained that at the November 16th Planning Commission public
heanng, there was a request for observations regarding the Coordinating Committee
1Vdr. Fergen then made a report regard.ing the latest Cbordinating Committee
workshop held November 3rd to briefly review the Preliminary Draft Agncul-
tural Suitability Report. His report explained what the Coordinating Committee
did at this meeting and the consensus feeiing of its members was to:
1. Deemphasize the use of the report at this tirne.
2. To get the staff working on a model for Agricultural Suitability Maps by
using an existing use map, a so-ti quality map, and a compatabili~y
of adjacent land uses map.
3. Not mail the aforementioned report out at thi s time.
4. And to have the staff gather new information for the report.
It was also explained that the minutes of the Coordinating Committee would be
sent to the Planning Commfssion as soon as the staff received and reviewed them.
The Planning Commission responded affirmatively when they were asked if they
wanted a further report on the proqress of the Suitability phase of the Comprehensive
Plan Update.
The points covered reqardinq Suitability progress were•
1. Our time frame has been pushed back about three to six months
2 Suitability maJor section reports have been written with the Preliminary
Draft Agriculture Report published and the other four reports soon to be
puhlishecl
It was requssted by the Planning Commission members that the following items be
given to them as a result of the discussion that followed the progress report.
1. Prelfminary Draft Agricultural Suitability
2 Copy of Lhe minutes of an early Coordinating Committee that was attended
by Cornmissioner Christensen and dealt with the function and role of the
Coordinatinq Committee.
33 . A written report done by a staff inember, approved by the staff and Planning
Commission regardir.g structure and responsibility of the Coordfnating
Committee.
4. Niinutes of a meeting in june 1976, when Advisory Council Chafranen were
elected and that they were asked to do some collating o f goals and
objectives.
-1-
• Two people from the audience gave testimony regarding the Coordinating
Committee and the progress of the Comprehensive Plan Update Some points
or questions asked by these two indxviduals were
1. Does the Coordinating Committee have a veto power?
2. How does a citizen get informed of these meetings and are they open ?
3. That the staff do work regarding Suitability and bring it back to the
Coordinatinq Committee
4 Good planning is a logical thing and the citizens should be partici-
pating in it because they know the most about past planning mistakes.
The Planning Commissfon after review of the proposed short plat ordinance and
after two public heanngs (September 23, 1977 and November 9, 1977) instructed
the Planning Department staff to investigate some possible modificatfons to
the proposal, including.
1P A 10 acre acreage exemptfon
2). Combining preiiminary and final shori plat procedure
3) Niodification of Short Plat Revfew Committee procedure
4) Modification of appeal procedure and notice of action
5) Further study of the fee schedule.
The Plannfng Gommission instructed the staff to matie the appropriate changes to
the ordinance and set a date for further revfew by the Commission.
Commissioners' Concern - Five Iviile Prairie Comprehensive Plan Study
Commissioners members receivEd a letter from City Plan regarding their request
for an extension of time to December 1, 1977 to comment on the Draft En-
vironmental Impact Statement lVir. Fergen reported that the staff would send a
letter to City Plan regarding the staff's concerns over the Draft Environmental
Impact Statement He bnefly explained the two concerns of the staff xvhich
were: 1) Concerning present policy regarding existing Comprehensive Plans,
and. 2) the possibility of Five Mile Prairie containinq historivarcheaological
sites Mr. Cleqq, Director of the Spokane City Plan Commission then said that
they would be glad to extend the time period ff it would facilitate comments
Mr Clegg gave a brief explanation of where the Draft E.I. S. carne from and
answered questions of the Planning Commission regarding iL.
Commissioners Kennedy and Main initiated discussion on the probability of
limiting the items appearing on the Commission's Agenda Their concerns are
that the meeting s are becoming too lengthy which may result in unsounded
decisions.

Gentlemen:
Once again we must ask for your assistance in
turning doWn the current (and all future) request
for a change in zoning of the south Pines area.
What is now a well-kept, beautiful residential
area is being threatened by the invasion og sore and
more business concerns. Although Ke can fully appreciate
the desire of these concerns to locate in the area,
during a time of emphasis on air polution, it seeas
imperative that we curtail, rathsr than encourage
more exhaust fumAs, smoke, ete., Which retail establish-
rnents surely cause.
rJhen the freeway was built it Tms to eliminate
some of the congestion on East Sprague, but due to the
shopping centsrs it has increased substantially. True,
expanding residential areas has also contributed, but
shopping areas centralize the congestion. We cannot
handle, nor do we want more traffic in the area.
We hoae oxnera are currentl,y prohibited from
any outside burning beeause of the difficulty in
ridding the area of the smoke. Can we therefore justify
.
. ~
~
.
bringing in more polution?
When may We expect the Comprehensive Plan to be
coapletedT Hopefully, when it is done, this area will
be peraanently established as a residential-offics
zone as it is noK. The sounds xe hear should be
children laughing and playing - not horns honking and
Motors running. Th• sxells should bo that of flowers
blooming - not exhaust fuuas.
Thank you, Gentlemen, for your time.

shopping center. We are writing to place a protest against such a shoppinr°
center and wish to keep our area a residential one. Shopping Centers
along Sprague Ave. are more than adequate to serve the needs of most aIl
the Valley people and we see no need to upset t,h+:. exiU tin F, re-si c1 en ti c'_
area to expand more shopping on South Pines Rd.
Many problems will be created for the residents Lhi:~ arc~a i i I,:
nter were to be built. Two are paramount. 1- More traffic for hone-~
~Srners to contend with. Already a light is needed at 4th & Pines and
rriany accidents occur at that intersection. 2- A shopping center is L;r~:_;t~~~
potential for robberies in our area. The 7-11 store at 4th & Pines will
attest to that.
''le plead with you to plEase keep our neighborhood free of more retail
businesses and keep it zoned residential. The need for more shoppinG
is only in the m$nds of the retail business men who wish to build. It "
is unnecessary for the residents.

De ar Sirs,
I would like to voice rW opinion against the proposed zoning change to retail
business. 'Je moved to the valley in 1973 in hoDes of findine a quiet, safe
environment in which to raise our children. For this reason we chose Houk Road as
the b uildina site for our new home. It is a dead er.d street wrich poses almost no
traffic hazards. There are numerous children at play near and in the street through-
out the neighborhood. We have a 6 year old child and I have no fear as she rides
her bike up and down the street. The majority of traffic on Houk Road is confined
to local residents, and they are aware of the children present at nearly all times
throughout the day and drive accordinvly.
If this zoning change occurs our environment that we have grown accustomed to
will become a thing of the past. Retail establishments will bring delivery trucks,
garrage trucks, and customers, all of which will inevitably result in noise Dollution,
air pollution, and increased traffic- traffic which may jeopardize every childs
safety.
Also to be corsidered is the fact that North pines Shoppin~ Center is 5 rlocks
from this area. There is absolutely no need for further retail estabiishments at
this close proximety of one another.
Please take these views into consideration and advise against the zoning chane
to retail business.
Resoectfully Yours,
~

in this le -ter, we want to report to ycu an alarm :n ; sta ~e of_ a=' airs i-;►iich is

I~y husband and I are concerned tthat speci_Cicall,y, should tilis proposed re-'L•ail busi.ness
c,:-~tcr be allowed at Pines and 0' th, an already ala-rming situation concerning nollution
t-raffic and noise, will become ior us residential homeot,mE:rs, intolerable.
i,raffic on Pines is now so b.,d thaT., I cannot allow 7,- 8 yr. old da,u--hter to crosss
Pznes to attend her da.ncing lessons. I must »ow drive her the 3 blocks to assurc her saf-
eU~r. For bic;-clists, pedstrians, aii d drivers j•Jlto arr~ also tryinr; to cross Pines,
„,!it is long and your safctT,- is in jeonardy.
e need a comwrehensive nlan drwn now for the southern part of Pines Rd.
I ~~,3 n---eaed now befoee we are zoned for more retail business. 'jut let us talk of
t,~e need for more retail business in this a~,Ea. Within one mile of our area we
~lave hundreds of reta.il stores, serving eveny concievable need. Locate more
~oiisiness elsewhere. Adopt a comnrehensive plan for south Pines now.
~ Please no.e enclosed list of retail stores. )
In closing, tie hopw yo, will listen to the taxpayers in t-riis area by denying a
zone chage at Pines and bth. Be more responsive to us than the ciLv iDlanner, wiio,
when approached by us about changes in our neighborhood, stated that, Yes, the
