Conditions 1. Improvement to the satisfaction of the Spokane County Engineer of the access to and through the advertised property (Improvements may include additional dedications and construction of certain rights of way from Euclid Avenue to the advertised property, and dedications and construction of certain rights of way through the advertised property in accordance with the requirements of the Spokane County Engineer). 2. Installation of fire hydrants in accordance with the requirements of the Valley Fire Marshal. B. Reasons 1. The Comprehensive Plan indicates that the advertised area is appropriate for industrial uses. 2. The advertised property lies north of a 60 acre area zoned Manufacturing. 3. The Planning Commission is of the opinion that the Restricted Industrial Zone is more appropriate for the advertised property than the Manufacturing Zone because: a) The advertised property adjoins a proposed residential mobile home development (made by the same applicant) to the east. b) The Restricted Industrial Zone allows light industrial uses, whereas the Manufacturing Zone allows sand and gravel pits, and all heavy manufacturing uses either outright or by special permit. The Commission notes that a specific development proposal was not submitted for review. Additional Comment Present access to the advertised tracts is marginal for industrial develop- ment. The sites have access to 30' R/W's which have not been improved or established for maintenance by Spokane County. The existing rights of way are not of sufficient width for proper construction or maintenance by Spokane County. - 4 - (contd. ) ZE- 108 -71 - AGRICULTURAL TO MANUFACTURING (contd.) The Commission has, therefore, recommended that the applicant shall be obligated to improve the access to and through the advertised properties to the satisfaction of the Spokane County Engineer. (Presumably, access would be provided in accordance with the proposed level of utilization of the interior industrial properties.) C. General Data: 1. Location: 2. Applicant: 3. Site Size: 4.
