PUBLIC HEARING AND DECISION: After consideranon of all available informauon
on file, exhibits submitted and testimony received dunng the course of the pubhc heanrig held
on September 9, 1992, the Zoning Adjustor rendered a wntten decision on September Q, -t ,
1992 to APPROVE the apphcation as set forih in the file documents and as conditioned below
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS
1 Testimony was taken under oath
2 The proposal is descnbed above and detailed in documents contained in the file
3 In comphance vinth RCW 36 70 450, the Planning Department deternuned that this
proposal is not addressed by the Comprehensive Plan
4 The site is zoned Light Industnal (I-2), which allows the proposed use upon
approval of thus apphcation
5 The existing land uses m the area of the proposal include (a) industnal to the north,
and (b) dilaprdated residennal to the east wrth illegal, unscreened storage and alleged person(s)
hving m a camper on tlus property to the east The condition and appearance of the applicant's
t- ~
CASE NO VE-29-92 (a-b) SFOK;ANE COLfNTY ZONING ADNSTOR PAGE 2
property is supenar to that of the property to the east aad equivalent to the property to the
north
6 The proposal is exempt from the provisions of the Waslungton State Environmental
Pohcy Act, Chapter 43 21C RCW pursuant to WAC 197-11-800
7 The following storage provisions prevail vnth respect to the fenculg and screenuig
portion of tlus request
14 632 355 Storage Standards
Storage of all raw matenals, fimshed products, machinery and equipment,
including company-owned or operated trucks and motor vehucles withln the I-2
zone shall be wnthin an entirely closed building or sight-obscunng non-pierced
fence not less than six (6) feet 1n height and to a height to screen said matenals,
products, equipment and vehicles from view at the ground level T'his requirement
may be waived if adjacent propemes are zoned industnal or have existing industnal
uses, and owners of said adjacent property do not object
COMIIMNT This apphcation dzd not address the fencing and screemng requirements to
the west or the north Screening and fencing is therefore requued on the west and the north,
unless waived under the provisions crted ui 14 632 355
Since the land to the immediate east is zoned Urban Residenaal3 5, the option of waiver
is not legally available However, a unique situation exusts to the east The owner of the land
maintams a residence, most likely for rental, wluch is in such dilapidated shape that its roof
consists of a blue tarp The rest of the site is fraught with illegal storage of equipment,
matesials, vehicles, including an apparendy occupied camper For all practical appearances, the
property resembles an unkept, disorderly contractor's yard or velucle wrecking and parting
yard Except for ttus residentially zoned lot and one to the east of it, the surround.uig area is
entuely I-3, I-2 and B-3 zorung It is highly unhkely that the property will ever be developed
as residential property The owners of the adjacent residentially zoned property (to the east)
expressed no objection to the lack of screemng and fencuig requirements and they are indicated
in the records as having received notice of the heanng The UR 3 5 zomng is an infrequent,
hmited example of an entirely inappropnate zoning cross-over from the Ordunance to the Code,
as of January 1, 1990 The appearance of the property, being very much suYUlar to an
industnal use, and the property owner having been noufied and not objecting to a lack of
screerung and fencing, creates a situaaon very surnlar to the provision xn 14 632 355
8 The other vanance requested by the apphcant has to do vcnth an elunination of the
landscaping requued by 14 806 040 1 f of the Zoning Code In this section a use proposed
in the industnal zone is required to have 20 feet of Type I landscaping abutmg any residential
zone As stated earher, a residential3 S zone exists to the north and the east of the subject
property Also, as discussed previously, the land immed.iately to the north is a present
nonconfonning use uidustnal use and the land to the east is a rmscellaneous assortment of
unauthonzed., illegal outdoor storage on a residential lot vvith a senously dilapidated residential
structure Only two lots exist to the east vnth residentzal zonuig, othervvise, the entire area is I-
2, I-3, B-2 and B-3 zorung The landscaping requu ement is designed to protect reasonable
residential uses from what nught be occumng on an adjacent uidustnal property There is no
RP-VE-29-92 (a-b)
t A
CASE NO VE-29-92 (a-b) SPOK;ANE COUNTY ZONIlNG ADNSTOR PAGE 3
reasonable residential use in this instance and there was no stated objecaon from the property
owners from the north or the east with respect to waiving the requuement for 20 feet of Type 1
landscapuig As long as the residential property is never developed into new or different
resldential uses, there is no need to reqiure the residential bufferuig As mentioned before, the
situauon of this reqwrement resulted from a qwrk of the cross-over zoiung scheme that went
into effect January 1, 1990
9 When the onginal rezorung was done on ttus property in 1985, the Heanng
Examiner Committee made a special note that the screerung and bufferuig reqvu-ed by the (then)
new Code should be unplemented at the pmperty at such time as new construction took place
At that time, a great deal of surrounding property was agnculture aad it was not kaown that it
would transiaon to Urban Residential3 5 However, when the actual unplementanon scheme
was unplemented l.n the late 1989s, B-3 and B-2 zonuig was programed northward from Trent
Avenue to the subject property, thus succeedmg in surrounchng the property nearly entlrely
with industnal, business and muung zomng, with only a very limited two lot pordon of
residential zonmg left immedi.ately east of the subject property The Heanng Examiner
Committee could not have anacipated the degree to which the area was going to be comnutted
to non-residennal uses Over a penod of tune the residential uses in the area, particularly
immediately to the east, will likely be phased out In the event they are not phased out and
some residential development does occur, it would be appropnate for the apphcant to mstall
fencing and landscapuig consistent with Zonuig Code requuements from which this decision
grants rehef
10 The reasons for granting the vanance, as setforth by the apphcant, are as follows
a The property to the east and the north is equally or more cluttered and "junky"
than my own will be, therefore, I should not have to screen or fence to protect
their view
b In the case of the property to the north, only the technlcalrty of the 60 foot
vcnde residential zone is a problem
11 Secuon 14 404 082 of the Zonuig Code addresses the reqiurements for granting a
vanance Subsection 1 of the above section is as follows
1 Any vanance from the teims of the Zorung Code shall be subject to such conchtions
as will (a) ensure that the adjustment shall not consntute a grant of spectal previlege
inconsistent Nnth the lirrutanons upon other properttes tn the vicinity and strnilar
zone classificatton in wluch the property is situated, (b) ensure that the intent and
purpose of the Zorung Code is maintained vcnth regard to locaaon, site design,
appearance, landscapmg and other features of the proposal, and (c) protect the
erivtronment, public interest and general welfare, and that the followulg
cucumstances are found to apply
a Because of special clrcumstances applicable to the property, includhng size,
shape, topography, locatton or surroundings, the stnct appltcatton of the
Zorang Code creates pracncal dlfficulties and is found to depnve the property
of nghts and pnvileges enjoyed by other propernes in the vicuuty and sinular
zone classificanon, and
RP-VE 29 92 (a b)
~ s
GASE N0. VE-29-92 (a b) SPOK:ANE COLfNTY ZONIIVG ADNSTOR PAGE 4
b That the grantwg of the vanance will neither be rnaterially detrunental to the
public welfare nor injunous to the property or improvements in the vicintty
and zone in wluch the property is locatied (emphasis added)
CONIlVENT Grranting these vanances dces not consntute a graut of special pnvileges, msofaz
as, the circumstances are unpossible to duphcate m ttus ar+ea or vicuuty or likely ln any other
situation The intent and purposes of the Zonuig Code, that is to provide screerung and
bufferuig for residential uses, is not sacnficed ui this uzstance The property to the north is
industnal and the property to the east is residenaal only m a smetch of the unagination, beuig
pnmanly a cluttiered, unauthonzed storage area on residential property The pubhc
uiterest/general welfare is not adversely affected insofar as the appearance of the pmperty on
empire way will be handled according to the zorung cntena and standards of the code
Certmnly, the locations and surnounduigs, combine wnth the Zomng Code requnement for
landscaping creates a practical diff'iculty of malntaining landscaping and fencuig where it serves
no purpose The granting of these vanances wnll not be matenally demmental to the pubhc
welfare nor injunous to the property or improvements in the vicuuty m the area.
12 No adverse testimony or wntten comments were received regarding the proposal
13 The apphcant has been made aware of the recommendations of vanous County
agencies reviewing this project
14 Vanous peaformance standards and cntena are additionally needed to make the use
compatible wnth other pernuttei acavities in the same vicuuty a.nd zone and to ensure against
unposuig excessive demands upon pubhc utxlities, and these shall be addressed as conditions
of approval
15 The proper legal requimments for advemsmg of the hearing before the Zonulg
Adjustor of Spokane County have been met
DECISION
From the foregoing Fmdings and Conclusions, the Zoning Adjustor APPROVES
the proposal as generally set forth in the file documents, subject to comphance vvith the
followuig
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
I. GENERAL
1 The followuig condzuons shall apply to the apphcant, owner and successors ui
interest and shall run vcnth the land.
2 Failure to comply with any of the conchtions of approval contained in this decision,
except as may be reheved by the Zoning Ad~ustar, shall consatute a violation of the Zorung
Code for Spokane County and be subject to such enforcement as is appropnate

3 The Zomng Adjustor may admunstraavely make minor ad,1ustments to site plans or
the conditions of approval as may be judged by the Zomng Adjustor to be witlun the context of
the onginal decision
H. PLANNING DEPARTMENT
1 T'his parcel shall not be further subd.ivided unless consistent with RCW 58 17,
the various county subdivision regulanons and the Spokane County Comprehensive Plan for
the area
2 The apphcant shall develop subject property generally m accordance wnthva the
concept presented to the Hearmg Body Vanations, when approved by the Planiung
Duector/designee, may be permitted, mcluchng, but not lmted to btulduig locanon, landscape
plans and general allowable uses of the pernutted zone All vananons must conform to
regulations set forth in the Zoning Code for Spokane County, and the onginal intent of the
development plans shall be maintauied.
3 As long as the property to the east and the north remain at theu present use or are
sub3ect to zone reclassif'icanons to industnal, B-3 or B-2 zoning, there would be no need for
the screening and buffenng landscaping However, at any pomt in ame that the north and east
propemes may actually be developed to newer, present residential standards, the reason for
granang the vana.nce would greatly dmunish if not be ehrrunated. Therefore, m the event that
either of the adjacent properd.es to the north or the east are developed uito newer residential
uses and a deternunation is made by the Planiung Department that they need the protection of
screenuig and buffering from the subject property, the owner of the property shall install sight
obscunng fencing and the landscaping required at the nme that such installation would occur
