This phase examines basic land uses from a social and economic perspective . The purpose of this Major Commercial Report is to provide information relating to Major Commercial areas which will, hopefully, achieve a better perspective of this land use and its relation to other land uses within the county. This report deals with three aspects of Major Commercial use: shopping centers, strip commercial and freeway commercial. The report is organized into three distinct parts: I. Discussion of current Major Commercial Land Use issues in Spokane County. II. Location and operation factors important to Major Commercial uses. III. Major Commercial objective information. In chapter I, local Major Commercial Land Use issues are discussed. Spokane County, like many other parts of the country, has experienced growth in Major Commercial activities. This chapter of the Major Commercial Suitability Report focuses on local issues and some view- points of the different interests involved. There was not sufficient space to present all views; however, those that are of major concern are presented. Chapter II is the beginning of a process to identify those factors which are important to the land being suitable for Major Commercial use. This provides a general identification of Major Commercial location preferences and requirements. Also discussed.4how these uses may influence or be influenced by other kinds of land uses: The Major Commercial requirements thus developed will be used to illustrate, through maps, graphs and statistics, the general differences in the land's suitability for Major Commercial uses. Chapter III presents some data which relates directly or indirectly . to Major Commercial use. It should prove useful to commercialists and non - commercialists for developing a county wide perspective of this activity. This information has been obtained from Major Commercial and shopping center reports, the U.S. Census and local officials. With a definition for Major Commercial, one must keep in mind that the definition is presented from a general, not site - specific, basis. However, when identifying a particular type of commercial use more specific detail is provided. Major Commercial areas are defined as areas of land use for the purpose of retail and wholesale trade of goods and services. The concentration of commercial activities varies in size from small, single units to large regional shopping centers; however, within the scope of this report Major Commercial Uses are of three types: 1. Shopping Centers - Regional, Community, Neighborhood. 2. Regional Serving Commercial Strip Developments, 3. Freeway Commercial Developments. I COMMERCIAL ISSUES & CONCERNS Major Commercial uses, existing and proposed, usually face a considerable degree of neighborhood group concern. The level of concern is generally highest when a new shopping center is proposed in a neighborhood; however, other commercial problems or issues are discussed in this Paper. Community concerns are generally focused around.a few basic issues: 1. Residential compatibility. 2. Effect of Commercial Uses on property values. 3. Safety. 4. Environment. 5. Commercial blight. Residential Compatibility Shopping centers can drastically change the areas in which they locate. With them come greatly increased amounts of auto and pedistrian traffic. During the time of construction there is generally a disruption of traffic flows and periods when considerable noise and air contaminants are generated. Previously quiet and only partially developed areas face transformation by the addition of a shopping center. Depending on the type and size of commercial activities, a center can be a hub of activity virtually twenty -four hours a day. The center will, in almost all instances, be a visual focal point for the area. During the evening hours, parking lot, store and sign lighting cause commercial sites to be particularly prominant. For residents who enjoy quiet, peaceful settings the prospect of being located adjacent to major commercial uses is very discomforting. Effect on Property Values Most community residents correctly or incorrectly see the coming of Major Commercial uses to their area as a threat to their property values. In actual fact, property values generally appreciate with commercial development. The appreciation is often attributed to an anticipated increased demand and intensity of development. The values for single family homes may decrease because of the incompatibilities between the - uses discussed earlier. A related concern for hearby residents is that if property values do, in fact, increase; so will property taxes. This may lead to a premature sale of a home to avoid the higher taxes. 2 Safety z The increased activity and traffic around commercial areas heightens the chances for accidents and injury. Once quiet roads where children played often become congested even if the roads are expanded. Residential streets too, can be used by shopping center customers; this creates neighborhood traffic hazards and becomes a general annoyance to residents. Environment An area's physical environment can be altered considerably by shopping center development. Because of these developments can consume sizable chunks of land, local drainage patterns may be altered and considerable vegetative cover replaced with pavement and buildings. The increased auto traffic and flow of people may contribute to air and water quality problems. The desire of most residents will be towards avoiding congestion and air pollution and insuring the adequacy of storm water runoff facilities. The over -all aesthetics of Commercial Centers often leads to community resentment and opposition to their potential development. Improvements along these lines have been noted in the increasing use of landscaping, sign control and architectural unity to establish greater compatibility between the centers and adjacent residential uses. Commercial Blight Declining Commercial areas create numerous problems which may or may not be assisted by improved planning techniques. The more common features of declining commercial areas include abandoned and dilapidated buildings which create safety, sanitary and /or fire hazards; unkept, garbage strewn lots; and in some locations the development of skid row activities (ie pawn shops, adult book stores, movie houses, etc.). By and large, all of the above features detract from residential and other use amenities. 3 II BASIC LOCATION & DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA A. SHOPPING CENTERS Shopping centers have reached a highly developed state by a process of growth and change. As travel patterns and buying habits shifted, centers came into being because old strip commercial lots could not accommodate a new concept for one -stop shopping with parking on the site, and because retailing follows purchasing power. Private enterprise answered the need for a complete market place with built -in customer parking. Unlike the contemporary office skyscraper, which is a building type evolved by zoning regulations, the shopping center is a distinct land use and building type brought about through practices initiated by the development industry. As early experiments turned into successful practices, standard forms and features for building and site design emerged. In any of its three standard forms, the shopping center provides the type of stores and facilities that are in keeping with the territory from which it draws customers. Even though shopping centers are in evidence all over the country., the term shopping center is often used loosely. The definition for shopping center and its related terms is standard. The shopping center is a commercial development which is designed, developed, operated and controlled by a single ownership with off - street parking placed on the site to serve jointlyy all establish- ments in the center. Shopping centers are also related directly to the trade area through site location and store types. This definition distinguishes the shopping center from miscellaneous collections of individual stores that stand on separate lot parcels strung along street and highway frontages or clustered in a concentrated business district, with or without incidental off - street parking. The number of people needed to support a shopping center of any type is a variable rather than a fixed measure. Factors of income level, disposable income, dilution by competition, plus changing methods of merchandising and store sizes all enter the calculations. Because of such factors, no deliberate "standard for size" is realistic. Local conditions within a trade area (number of households, income levels, existing retail outlets) are more important than any general median population figure in estimating purchasing power needed to support a center. As the shopping center evolved, three distinct types emerged, each definite in its own function: neighborhood, community and regional. In all cases, a shopping center's type is determined by its major tenant classification and size of the market it serves. Neither the site area nor the building size determines the type of center. , d I �' 4 4 THE NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER provides for the sale of convenience goods (foods, drugs and sundries) and such personal services as laundry and dry cleaning, hair styling and shoe repairing, for day -by -day living needs of an immediate neighborhood. A supermarket is the principal tenant. In size, the neighborhood center has an average ross leasabl a close to 50,000 square feet. It may range from up to as much as 100,000 square teet. For its site area, the neighborhood center needs- tr- om_four Gres. It normally serves a trade ,4&-- within six minutes wing time._ ?, THE COMMUNITY CENTER In size, the community center has an average gross leasable area of about 150,000 square feet but the range is between 100,000 and 300,000 square feet. For its site area, the community center needs Prom 10 to 30 acres or more. It normally serves a trade area popula,Lion of 4U,01JU to 150,000 people. The community center may take on the aspect of a regional center because of its local dominance and pulling power, even though the center's collection of tenants does not include a full -line department store. A popular priced store (discount) may substitute locally in customer acceptance and in function as a leading tenant. is built around a junior department store or a variety store as the major tenant, in addition to the supermarket. It does not have a full -line department store, though it may have a strong specialty or discount store. THE REGIONAL CENTER. provides for general merchandise, apparel, furniture and home furnishings in full depth and variety. The regional is the largest type of shopping center. It comes closest to reproducing the shopping facilities and customer attractions once available only in central business districts. It is built around a full -line department store as the major drawing power. For even greater depth and variety in comparative shopping, two department stores - -even three or more - -are being included among the tenants. The regional center has an average gross leasable area of 400,000 square feet. Regional centers range in area from 300,000 up to 9•,000,000 square feet or more. The regional center needs at least a popuiation_of 1.50.,OAa to draw upon. It is generally designed to serve a trade area of 150,000 people. Traditionally, site area for a typical regional center averages acres c acres a uu and . Greater site areas readily accommodate growth withou impinging upon site and building area relationships. The regional center provides complete comparison shopping goods in depth and variety; its customer drawing power stems from this capacity to offer complete shopping facilities. This attraction extends its trade area by 10 to 15 miles or more, modified by such factors as competitive facilities and travel time over access highways. Appendix "A" of this report provides a quite complete listing of Spokane Metropolitan Area Shopping Centers, their size, tenants and location. The general type of center, ie Regional, Community and Neighborhood is also noted. TRADE AREAS Distances between shopping centers cannot be stated in terms of precise measurements. It is not distance between centers that counts in drawing power but time of travel, convenience for the customer and array of merchandising. For example, a neighborhood shopping center can exist successfully immediately next to or across the street from a regional center. The reason for this phenomenon is the two types of center offer entirely different ranges in merchandise. Shoppers who are shopping in the neighborhood center are seeking convenience goods and services rather than seeking the array of "shopping goods" offered by the regional center. But if one needs theoretical trade distances, the following indicators are rules of thumb only (not standards): • Neighborhood centers - -draw from hmile distances, depending on density and character of residential use. Community centers- -draw from 3 -5 mile distances. Regional centers - -draw from distances of 8 miles or more. Driving time ordinarily would be 20 minutes, but this may be actually a 2 -mile or 20 -mile distance, depending on traffic conditions and type of highway travel to a site. Spacing for drawing power between regional centers suggests five to ten miles between competing sites. In major metropolitan areas, the pattern for regional center locations appears as a ring outward from the central city close to interchanges between circumferential and radial freeways.

There are also "mini- marts" featuring a store of 3,000 to 5 000 square feet with parking5 to 20 cars. In addition o groceries, a ypes of sundries are carried. Such convenience marts serve until population growth in the area justifies a complete neighborhood center. High fashion and specialty centers will soon join the neighborhood, community and regional shopping centers as a fourth distinct entity. As a rule of thumb, merely for checking out adequacy of site area for a shopping center proposal, one can roughly figure 10,000 square feet of building area (GLA) and 30,000 square feet in parking area for each 40,000 square feet of site area (about an acre). For example, a site area of 10 acres for conventional shopping center development will readily accommodate 100,000 square feet of GLA in the center. Such rough calculations are useful only for gauging site adequacy for a shopping center proposal in an outlying suburban location. The precise characteristics under these indicators are not rigid. Often elements change because of the treatment required to make necessary adaptations or adjustments for the characteristics of the trade area, nature of competition, population density and variations in site location. These figures represent indicators only for definition purposes. Again, it is emphasized that tenant composition and characteristics of the leading tenant define a shopping center type. Building area or size does not do so. As learned from operations of existing shopping centers reported in a study of income and expenses in shopping center operation, typical shopping centers range in gross leasable area as follows: GROSS LEASABLE AREA Type of Center Median Mid -Range Neighborhood 49,000 sq. ft. 36,000- 70,000 sq. ft. Community 160,000 122,000- 204,000 Regional 519,000 361,000- 776,000 The median figure is typical in the standard type of center. Use of mid -range eliminates extremes at the top and bottom in a full range of statistics. The range is topped at well over one million square feet. The trend is toward creating larger regional centers at the top of the ' range by introducing full -time department stores seeking representation at a strong location within a metropolitan city market area. With four and five full -line department stores and other commercial uses within one center, these centers become the "maxi ", "macro ", or "super" centers mentioned previously. Site Evaluation Suitable sites for shopping centers are hard to find, and when a site is discovered, the area probably is not classified for comercial use. Nevertheless, pondering over the physical factors of site location and suitability is another major part of the early analysis and preplanning stages. The following factors enter into the developer's analysis of site suitability: LOCATION Site accessibility is a prime condition. Access into and out of a site must be accommodated from traffic - carrying roads which have enough unused traffic carrying capacity to avoid future overloading. REGIONAL CENTERS locate where access is available from major traffic routes having access points to expressways or freeways. Location fronting on a restricted access highway is good for visual exposure, but the entrances to the center must be away from ramps serving as interchanges between the freeway and the cross - access highway for good traffic flow and control. Ideally, a regional center's site should be ringed by major traffic routes having carefully designed access points and traffic control devices to handle peak loads generated by such centers. COMMUNITY CENTERS locate at intersection of major streets. Access to a nearby freeway is preferred but not a necessity because the trade area does not require high -speed travel on a shopper's trip to this type of center with its smaller array of stores. NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS locate at collector street intersections. A neighborhood center location should avoid having its principal traffic access by means of local neighborhood streets. Site Selection Factors In site selection, the developer has to make sure that his site has the best possible combinations of such factors as: * Easy access. * All in one piece - -not bisected by public streets. * Ample area; a regional center needs room for expansion of retail use as well as for possible introduction of compatible uses such as offices, motels, commercial recreation, buffer strips and parking. * Minimal sub -soil complications. * Adequate utilities available. * For neighborhood centers, an advantage is proximity to a residential area for walk -in trade. Feasibility Studies * Favorable zoning atmosphere. If the site selected is not zoned for commercial use, rezoning application must be applied for. The developer is well aware that zoning approval is the hinge on which his further procedures toward development will turn. Before launching a search for a site, a developer must evaluate a community and measure its potential for new retail and commercial outlets. His market evaluation is a point of departure. His next move is a feasibility analysis, which is a calculation of pro forma development costs against which income and expenses can be estimated for a look at the end result remaining after debt service. The developer makes his market analysis to find out whether the area can support a new center; secondarily to convince prospective tenants that the trading area affords and needs the center. When he goes further with the market analysis, with its estimate of project possibilities and potentials, the developer finds out just who and what his key tennants can be. Obtaining a commitment from the major tenant is basic for estimating the project cost and framing leasing arrangements with other tenants. Both the market analysis and the financial feasibility are the developer's major preplanning procedures to firm up a project before physical planning goes beyond a preliminary sketch or concept plan and prospectus. B. HIGHWAY & ARTERIAL ORIENTED COMMERCIAL STRIPS It is well known that the location of businesses on major tho contributes to traffir rnn. ion azar.ous in ersec ions and unsightly appearance. A strong case can be ma .e or ocat ing certain ypes o us�inesses on major highways as a convenience to the traveler. Gasoline stations and restaurants are among the more obvious examples. There are, furthermore, firms that tend to locate on major highways because of space requirements for parking and loading operations, and the need for convenient access to all parts of the community. Building materials establishments are examples of this type. Such businesses are not essential to the traveler or to the operation of the highway system; rather they require location on major thoroughfares for efficient operation. If it is conceded that highway- oriented commercial development is essential to the business welfare of the community, it should be possible to plan for it and to provide adequate controls. On the surface, the oblem might appear uncomplicated and easily solved. For example, .is a strip of businesses were to be set back along a frontage roa ith adequate off - street parking and common controlled access from the highway to reduce traffic conflicts, objections to the strip commercial development would undoubtedly be diminished. And if adequate screening along the entire strip insured against loss of neighborhood character and maintained land values of nearby residences, many of the objections to the visual aspects of this type of business center would be eliminated. But more refinement is needed than most areas now use in strip -type developments if they are to reduce problems of over - expansion of the areas. Many retail uses do not mix well with highway- oriented uses. At the same time, provisions must be made for those businesses that do require location on a highway and that cannot operate in typical shopping centers. Strip or ribbon commercial centers, however, do not fit neatly into the general hierarchy of business centers. 10 First, it must be recognized that strip street -type centers serve different demands than do.-nf7ci R centers, demands not for immediate consumer annds purchasedjfrom 1jhe home but presumably demands associated with .eo.le M .. . • a4lon• ma or urban arterials.

Berry, "Ribbon Developments in the Urban Business Pattern," Annals of the American Association of Geographers, Volume 49, June 1959, p. 147. Major Location Criteria The major locational criteria for highway and arterial commercial uses are basically: 1. On the periphery of regional shopping centers and of some community shopping centers. 2. On the periphery of the central business district. 3. In clusters on the arterial streets. 4. On the periphery of industrial areas. Not all highway businesses require such locations. Some can function in shopping centers as well as in independent areas. Access control techniques are recommended to minimize traffic conflict and signing and landscaping can improve the overall aesthetics of strip commercial areas. C. FREEWAY COMMERCIAL The Freeway Commercial uses are more specialized than the previously discussed commercial types. In this instance, the existance of freeway egress or access points is the single essential location factor. The businesses which locate in these areas depend heavily upon freeway traffic for their survival. As a consequence, service . stations, truck stops, motels, tourist camps and restaurants are common tenants of freeway interchange areas. As with strip business patterns the users of freeway commercial establishments make a single stop - -for gas, food, rest, etc., and return to the freeway. The general location and operation needs of these commercial activities can be summarized as follows: 1. Proximity to freeway egress and access points. 2. High visibility. 3. Adequate off - street parking. v, , ..;. �: caaa��c�an.cr±i.n.w�.e�i��.tiii.

(See map next page) The Inland Empire Market covers approximately 80,000 square miles and reaches 1.2 million people in parts of four states. These people in turn represent consumers who spend $3 billion annually on goods and services. Within a radius of 75 miles only one city, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, has a population which tops 10,000. Within 150 miles, no community captures more than 30,000 people. The latest census information places the Inland Empire's population at 1,221,000. Retail sales data indicate that Spokane is the "shopping center" for the Inland Empire. Residents have an effective buying income of $4.5 billion reflecting per capita buying power of about $3,700. The average household spends about $11,000 annually on retail goods and services. In addition, more than 21 percent of the retail sales dollars spent in Spokane come from the surrounding 35 counties of the Inland Empire. Inland Empire residents spend $689 million on food; almost $393 million on general merchandise; $117 million on furniture and household appliances; $571 million on automobiles and accessories; $108 million on drugs and related items; and, $1 billion on all other expenditures. Retail sales in Spokane County totaled $915,036 million in 1975 versus $890,053 million in 1974, an increase of 2.8 percent. Retail sales in the City of Spokane totaled $661.3 million in 1975 versus $635.1 million, a gain of 4.1 percent over 1974. Retail sales in the Inland Empire's 36 counties totalled $3.471 billion in 1975 versus $3.265 billion in 1974, an increase of 6.3 percent. In 1975, retail sales in Spokane County accounted for 26.4 percent of all retail sales in the Inland Empire. In 1975, the City retail sales accounted for 77.3 percent of total sales in Spokane County. Average retail sales per household for the City of Spokane were $9,841 in 1975. For the State of Washington, the average was $8,162 and for the Inland Empire it was $7,935. Economic indicators for the Inland Empire, Spokane County, and the City of Spokane are shown on the charts on following pages.

Manson, Director Spokane County Building Codes Department North 811 Jefferson Spokane, Wa. 99260 Dear Mr. Manson: September 24, 1980 The Board of Directors of Central Valley School District has discussed at length the proposed construction of a Warehouse Market on the southwest corner of University Road and 16th Avenue in Spokane Valley. They wish me, as Superintendent, to notify you of their concern for the safety of hundreds of school children who either ride bicycles or walk to and from University Elementary School at that location. As you know, both Univer- sity Road and 16th Avenue are currently hazardous for pedestrian use due to a lack of sidewalks and adequate road shoulders. It is the school board's belief that a bad pedestrian situation would be made even worse by the installation of a large commercial facility close to University Elementary School.

The zone in question is classified as Local Business. Webster's defines LOCAL as, "primarily serving the needs of a particular limited district ". a) Already existing is this zone is a retail grocery store with a facility to serve triple the present population within the locale. b) The Warehouse Industries recognize the above fact.' They plan to and will draw new traffic from a 10 or more square mile area. They are not and cannot be classified as a local business. 2. The danger to children attending or using the play grounds of the University Elementary School will develop to an unacceptable degree a) The planned entrance and exit of the Warehouse is directly opposite that of the school entrance. This exact area will experience increased automobile traffic by the rate of 6.65 per minute. b) The intersection of University road and 16th avenue is already rated as a "high risk" intersection. c) To retain the present level of safety protection for children, should the building permit be allowed, the following safety measures ore minimum requirements. 1. Sidewalks around the perimeter of the school grounds 2. Overpasses from the school grounds across University road and 16th avenue. 3. Stop and Go lights. 4. No left turns by automobiles to the Warehouse entrance. 5. Channeling traffic away from the neighboring school ground road areas. James L. Manson (2) September 26, 1980 3. The planned Warehouse location is a residential area. Homes exist on three sides and the school on the fourth. We await you reply. Sincerely yours, 6. Entrance and exit to and from the Warehouse be required at Oberlin road or 16th avenue only. a) The U.S. Department of Ecology believe the proposed Warehouse will have detrimental effects and they will assist in a environmental study upon request. 4. In addition to the reasons described above, plus the attached acculumated evidence and letter copies, we believe the Spokane County Environmental Checklist will prove negative to the proposed Warehouse in the following categories: Paragraph 11 Environmental Impacts: #1 r (b); a2, (a),(b); #3, (b), (c), (1); # 6, (a); #7 , (a); #8,(a); 0 11; #12; #1 3, (a), (b), (c), (d), (f); #14, (0),(1:1),(0,0),(0, #15, (b); #16 (d), (e), (f); As none of the above can be proved or disproved without a Environmental Impact Study, and as it is within the jurisdiction of the Spokane County Building Codes Department to order such a study, we petition same to be performed. Should a Building Permit be issued without such a study, we, via a copy of this letter, petition the Spokane County Commissioners for a public hearing on this matter. Spa* V• ley onin• ommyttee H.

V. ZONING OF AREAS SURROUNDING SCHOOLS L. W. Ditlevson moved that the superintendent be requested to write a letter to the Spokane County Planning Commission requesting that they prevent the establishment of commercial sites in areas surrounding the Progress and Broadway elementary schools, the Central Valley Junior High School, and the following proposed school constructions: University Elementary school at 16th. and University, Central Valley High School at 8th. and Sullivan, elementary school at 12th. and McDonald, and the elemen- tary school at Broadway and McDonald. John D. Miller seconded the motion which carried with a unanimous vote being cast. VI. SALE OF SPORTS SHOW TICKETS Mr. Mills reported that the promotors of the Sports Show had asked that school children be given tickets to the show and be released from school to attend. The County Board of Education disapproved of this plan and recommended that children go to the sports show on their own time.

H. Saad, Chairman Spokane Valley Citizen Zoning Committee 10805 East Nineteenth Street Spokane, WA 99206 Re: 7- Eleven Food Store - Sixteenth and University Dear Mr. Saad: In response to your inquiry concerning market data and future capability for servicing our market area at the referenced location, the following information should be of some interest to you. Our store at Sixteenth and University serves a total neighborhood market area of approximately two square miles. Originally, when this area was being considered for a new store, house counts and average daily traffic through the intersection were studied and both met minimum site requirements for a new store. Each of our new store locations are judged on this basis. From our extensive experience in site study and selection, we know that we don't create any new traffic patterns; and our shoppers consist of neigh- borhood people within a one and a half mile square radius. Since we have developed our site into a successful location, the average daily traffic past our site has increased. This has happened because of new development and new houses in the market area. The fact that we are at the location has not affected traffic in any significant manner. The store unit consists of approximately 2400 square feet and has the capacity to do three times as much local business as it is presently doing without any physical changes. It is basically set up to serve the present needs of the neighborhood shopper within the market area here before described. The propo:ed market which you have described to me would probably have no detrimental effect on our gross sales and, in fact, would probably create new business for us. In order for a warehouse market to survive in such a limited neighborhood environment, they would need to draw customers from an eight to ten square mile area, thus creating an entirely new traffic pattern past our present location. Our experience has shown us that the more traffic we have past our site, the greater the merchandise volume in sales. IVISION OF Cu! THE SOIITHIIINfl Mr M H Saad September 24, 1980 .Page Two My concern at the subject location is that present traffic on Sixteenth and University has reached the point that the intersection in its present condition, in my opinion, cannot support the volume of traffic needed to feed a new grocery -type operation the size you have described to me. Our store has a franchisee who has concern about the children in the area and many times advises them about the traffic. I doubt that you would have that type of personal commitment from the operation of a warehouse market. I personally am committed to the development of new business. I feel that for society to develop, free enterprise must be considered the best method to attain successful development of our society; but I sincerely feel that each new proposed commercial development must be investigated, and final approval of said development should be judged on the development's ultimate value to that society. If I can be of further assistance to you, please feel free to call me.

Sweitzer Zoning Administrator Spokane County Planning Commission Public Works Building N. 811 Jefferson Street Spokane, Washington 99201 Dear Mr. Sweitzer: Mr. Charles G. Stocker, Assistant Superintendent for Administration has asked me to correspond with your office regarding the proposed zoning change for the property on the corner of Pines and Broadway. The property is currently Agriculture - Suburban zone classification and the owners have requested a change to Local Business zone thus permitting a proposed pizza parlor. The administration and staff of North Pines Jr. High strongly support the Policy and position of the Central Valley School Board on zoning areas adjacent to schools. I believe Mr. Stocker forwarded that policy to you. Our assistant principal, Mr. Hary Hagen, was in attendance at the school board meeting on October 12, 1976 and recommended that the C. V. School District Board of Directors reaffirm this policy. After considerable thought we thought it necessary to make this recommendation on behalf of our students. Our school has a closed campus policy and with a commercial eating establishment next door the temptations would be far too great for junior high, aged students. The supervision of our students as well as the supervision of the neighboring property would be monumental. We regret taking this action against the owners who are requesting this change but definitely feel that it is in the best interests of our students and the Central Valley School District.

Manson, Director Dear Mr. Manson: Spokane Valley Citizen Zoning Committee 10805 E. 19th Spokane, Washington 99206 ',' We, the Spokane Valley Citizen Zoning. Committee, in addition to our about 730 citizen petition, plus another8000 signatures being obtained, object to the Warehouse Industries proposed establishing a Warehouse Market at University road and 16th avenue, due to the following: 1. The zone in question is classified as Local Business. Webster's defines LOCAL as, "primarily serving the needs of o particular limited district". . a) Already existing is this zone is a retail grocery store with a facility to serve triple the present population within the locale. b) The Warehouse Industries recognize the above; fact. They plan to and will draw new traffic from a 10 or more square mile area They are not and cannot be classified as a local' business. 2. The danger to children attending or using the play grounds of the University Elementary School will develop to an unacceptable degree. . a) The planned entrance and exit of the Warehouse is directly opposite that of the school entrance.. This exact area will experience increased automobile traffic by the :rate of 6.65 per minute. b) The intersection . of University road and 16th avenue is\already rated as a "high risk" intersection. c) To retain the present level of safety protection for, children, should the building permit be allowed, the following safety measures are minimum requirements. 1.. Sidewalks around the perimeter of the school grounds 'Overpasses . from the school grounds across University road and 16th avenue. Stop and Go lights. No left turns.by automobiles to the Warehouse entrance. 5.' Channeling traffic away from the neighboring school ground road areas. , .• •••••• , , , . • • James L. Manson "" t2) „ September 26, 1960 6. Entrance and exit to and from the Warehouse be required at Oberlin road or 16th avenue only. 3. The planned Warehouse location is a residential area. Homes exist on three. sides and the school on the fourth. a) The U.S. Department of Ecology believe the proposed Warehouse will have detrimental effects and they will assist In a environmental study upon request. 4. In addition to the reasons described above, plus the attached acculumated evidence and letter copies, we believe the Spokane County Environmental Checklist will prove negative to the proposed Warehouse in the following catagories: Paragraph 1f Environmental Impacts: #1, (b); 42 , ( #3 ,(b), (c), ( #6 , (a); # (a)•• #8,(a); # #12; #13, (a),(b),(c),(d),(f); #14, (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), #15, (b), #16, (d), (e), (f), As none of the above can be proved or disproved without a Environmental Impact Study, and as it is within the jurisdiction of the Spokane County Building Codes Department to order such a study, we petition same to be performed. Should a Building Permit be issued without such a study, we via a copy of this letter, • petition the Spokane County Commissioners for a public hearing on this matter. We await you reply. .

The safety of the children is our numbeir one concern. Enrollment at present is 503 children. Most of them walk and or ride their bike to school. The traffic at present is noisy and interfers with the learning process. Our school is used as,,, community recreation center. The school sponsored' functions, sports including adult volleyball, basketball, meetings, etc. The school sponsors a Boy Scout troop, Campfire girls and Girl Scouts also meet at the school. These activities occur during school, after school and in the evenings. Parking at these functions, especially when its a school function is very inadequate now. The school grounds are considered the neighborhood park provided, in part, by County funds. We need a safe neighborhood for our children and adults'alike for the growth of our community. We, the PTSA, are in agreement with the Central Valley School District policy that no large local_ business, commercial or industrial zones be established near our schools, existing school sites and projected school sites.

Food Store - Sixteenth and University Dear Mr. Saad: In response to your inquiry concerning market data and future capability for servicing our market area at the referenced location, the following y;, , information should be of some interest to you. Our store at Sixteenth and University styes a fatal neighborhood market area of approximately two square miles. Originally, when :this area was_ being considered for a new store, house counts and average •daily traffic through the intersection were studied and . both met minimum site requirements for a new store: Each of our new store. locations are judged on this basis. From our extensive experience in site study and selection, we know that don't create any new traffic patterns; and our shoppers consist of neigh- borhood people within a one and a half mile square radius. Since we.have developed our Site into a successful location, the average daily traffic , past our site has increased. This has.happened because of ,new development* and new houses in the market area The fact that we are:at the location' "'' has not affected traffic in any significant manner. The store unit consists of approximately 2400 square feet.and'has the capacity to do three times as much local business as it is presently doing without any physical changes It is basically : Oar-um-to nerve rig present needs of the neighborhood shopper within the Market area hgj;g be ore escri end. The _proposed market which you have described to me would probably have no detrimental effect on our gross sales and, in fact, would probably create new business for us.

Our store has a franchisee who has concern about the children in the area and many times advises them about the traffic: I.doubt that you would have' that type of personal - commitment from the operation of a warehouse market. I personally am committed to the development of new business. -I feel that for society to develop, free enterprise must be considered the best method to attain successful development of our society; but I sincerely feel that each new proposed commercial development must be investigated, and final . approval of said development should be judged on the development's ultimate value to that society.

We are concerned with the safety and well being of children. The increased traffic and particularly truck traffic could endanger the children who attend the school as well as the many children who use the playground of that school during non school time.

At the hearing Wed. Mr. Litt of Diversified. Planners who represented Warehouse Markets, pointed out that this proposal wbutd not "cater to the same market as other warehouse markets even though the names are the same. It would be catering to a secondary market such as Albertson's (ex.) ". As he stated this store will have double the produce and meat so will need to turn these perishables over more quickly and will require trips 2 to 3 times per week instead of the once weekly For warehouse store. By this testimony we have been given the following traffic generation formula by Floyd Lowerson of Regional Planning Conf. for supermarkets of this 21,600 sq. ft. size: 125.5 trips per 1,000 sq. ft. or 2710.8 cars per day. We wish to point out this difference from discount to regular supermarket. We also wish to correct the following erroneous statements made at the hearing: 1. There are no CV schools in similar situations as regards businesses as close as this proposal. a) See diagrams regarding Adams Elem. and St. Mary's which were stated to be next to a Warehouse Market on Adams. b) Keystone and McDonald quoted as next to ExCell Foods. 2. Proposed siting of CV school at Liberty Lake is not next to 14401 industrial zone. (see attached map) — tesary,tte 3. Zoning change accomplished in adjacent to CV Junior High on acquiescence of CV district. ( see attached letters. This 1976 to establish Pizza Parlor Pines was not done with was not refutation of CV policy) 4. Cap's IGA mentioned as similar exami,le of store in local business zone has 10,000 sq. ft. (less than half this proposal) and 50 car parking lot which includes parking for dental office adjacent. No school is nearby.

REPORT ON RELOCATABLE CLASSROOMS The Board received a written report, as requested at its last meeting, ou the companies who were contacted to supply a relocatable classroom facility at Greenacres Elementary School. The report as submitted, is as follows: "The following companies were contacted in regard to the lease and /or purchase of a relocatable classroom: Designed Facilities Leasing Company - Seattle MICO Manufacturing - Boise, Idaho. Space Pentals - Commerce City, Co.l.orado Elder Equipment - Portland Boise Cascade - Post Falls Port -A -Built Systems, Inc. - Pasco In addition to the above gamed companies,' several school districts were contacted and checked for poseibie surplus relocatables. None of the districts contacted had any surplus buildings.
