PUBLIC HEARING AND DECISIQN: After cvnsideratian of all available infarmation
vn fi1e, t;xhibits submitted and testimony received during the course of the public hearing held
on July 9, 1991, the Zoning Adjustor rendered a written decisivn vn Tuly 1 9 , 1991 to
APPROVE the application as set forth 'Ya1 the fiIe dncurnents and as candi.tioared below.
FINDINGS QF FA,CT AND C(31'rICLUSi[)NS
1. The praposal is described above and deta.ited in documents contained in the file.
2. In ca►mpliance wit.h RCW 36.70,450, [he Planning Department determined that this
proposal is generally consxstent, as canditioned, with the Major Commercial category of the
Cvmprehensive Plan.
3. The site is zoned Reg%onal Business, (B-3), which allows the proposed use upon
approval of this applicativn.
.

CASE N+C7. VE-15-91 SFC]KAANE CQUNTY ZONING ADJUSTOR PAGE 2
4. The existing land uses in the anea of the prvgosal include general commercial uses,
a warehause, a felephQne company office building and single family residenees, all of which
are cvmgatible with the proposal.
5. The proposal is exempt from the provisians of the Washington State Envi.ranmental
Falicy Act, Chapter 43.21C RCW pursuant tv WAC 197-11-8()0 (6) (b).
6. The applicant has been made aware of the recvmmendations of variaus Cvunty
agencies revi,ewing this pmject and has indicated thase recommendativns are acceptable.
7. The proper legai requirements for advertising of the hearing befare the Za►ning
Adjustvr of Spokane Counry have been met.
8. Na Qne appeareci to vppose the proposal, but a petition was received signed by
twenty-vne residents frram the area in appasition to the prapasal. Concems raised included that
setbacks should remain consistent w%th the balance of the area, bvth residentiai an cvmmercial;
Rvbie Road serving as a main access for the neighborhood and Gommercial area; current
parking vn Robie Rvad at the frvnt of the propvsal; and safety fvr children in the area.
9. The Zoring Adjustor may require such conditivns of approva.l as necessary and
appropriate to make the p:roject most campatibXe with the public interest and generat welfare.
10. Various perforniance standards and criteria are additivnally needed tv make the use
compatible with other pennitted activities in the same vicinity and zane and to ensure against
impvsing excessive demands upvn gulalic utilities, and these shall be addressed as cvnditions
of approval.
11. Immmediately east of this prvgasal, on Robie Road, there are two buildings that were
granted f'ront yard variances tv establish the buildings only ten feet fiom the right-of-way line.
T'his praposed addition is generally vn the same north-south building line as the existing tavern
building on-site as well as the commercial building ta the nvrth across the alley. The variance
would allvw a 28' frant yard setbacFc fvr the proposal. Many residences in the area at the time
of construction were only required to be setback 25'. All of the above create special
circumstances which if the variance wasn't appraveci, wauld be putting a limit vn this propert}r
which would be incansistent with the limitation upon other properties in the vicinity,
12. Parldng is currently a problem on Robie Road in front of the existing tavern. This
has been pointed vut by resxdents in their petition as well as the County Engineers +CJffice in the
Fre-application Canference of July 30, 1990. The prahibitivn of parkin.g an the frant yard
would be in the best interest of public safety frvm a aafflc circulation standpaint.
13. With the conditivns of approvai set fonth below, the variance will: a} nat constitute
a grant of special privileges inconsistent with lirnitations fln ather prvperties in the vicinity and
similar zvne; b) ensure that the intent and purpvse of the Zan%ng Cvde is achieved with regard
tv Iacativn, site design, appearance, landscaping, etc.; and c} protect the envisonment, public
interest and general welfare.
