O FFICE OF COUNTY ENGINEER Spokane County, Washington 956,�7QO October 1, 1980 TO: I James L. Manson, Directo FROM: ' Jack Finney, County Engineers Office SUBJECT: Warehouse Market Environmental Check list. A traffic engineering investigation has been completed by this office. The existing school patrols are doing a good job escorting the students to and from the University Elementary Schools. The existing cross walk on Diversity north of 17th should be relocated. The existing roadway facilities can handle the estimated new vehicular traffic generated by the proposed Warehouse Market. There are pedestrians needs for additional sidewalks and /or pathways in the area. Warehouse markets will be required at the time of building permit approval to place cement concrete curbs and sidewalks adjacent to their property both on University and on Oberlin. Designated areas on the existing store and service station properties, to the north, should be marked for pedestrians. Our 1982 construction program proposes to place additional sidewalks on University from 4th to 17th and on 16th from Oberlin to Glenn. Traffic Signals are also scheduled for the intersection of 16th and University and can be programed for exclusive pedestrian movements. cc: Michel U.

We have just learned of the impending construction of a warehouse supermarket and mini - shopping center directly across from our local elementary school. We are greatly concerned about the environmental impact this will have on our school area and the streets the children travel to and from school. Currently University i Road south of 16th is narrow with dirt shoulders and no sidewalks. We have no traffic lights. With the normal traffic of residents is inadequate and must be approached carefully from side streets during busy traffic times. What will it be like when we have a parking lot for 50 to 100 cars directly opposite the elementaryt school crosswalks and large trucks coming in and out to service•.,< the warehouse market?. Ours is a community service school used for many other activities and recreational leagues after school. Parking is inadequate now. What will it be like with cars from outlying areas congesting the block to come to the warehouse market ?. As taxpayers, and parents we originally chose this area 'because of the proximity to the 3 schools -- University Elementary, Bowdish Junior High and University High School. We wanted a neighborhood safe for our children to walk or bicycle to school. Most routes traveled by students coming and going from these sc oojls will be affected by the construction of this center, its parking and traffic plan. Noise pollution, congested and unsafe roads and air pollution are all problems we will have to contend with in our formerly pleasant residential area. We would ask that further study be made into this environmental impact to our neighborhood. PEOPLE LIVE hERE! We would like an opportunity for discussion b efor e it's too late. Since the company building the store is located in Montana, they may not be aware of or care about the impact on the area. In writing this letter we feel that you as our representative government must have concern for the welfare of citizens in your jurisdiction and that you would want to know of our concern and want to takd steps to protect your constituents. Sincerely yours, Concerned residents as signed 1\ T, „i v BUILDING CODES DEPARTMENT BUILDING —SIGN BOA RD— GAB— I1EA'rING— PLUM BIN G 811 North Jefferann Street — Spokane, Waehml{ ton 99260 Telephone. 456 -3675 Jame L.

Manson, Director FROM: Ja ck Finney, County Enqineers Offi SUBJECT: Warehouse Market Environmental CheckAst. A traffic engineering investigation has been completed by this office. The existing school patrols are doing a good job escorting the students to and from the University Elementary Schools. The existing cross walk on L(niversity north of 17th should be relocated. The existing roadway facilities can handle the estimated new vehicular traffic generated by the proposed Warehouse Market. There are pedestrians needs for additional sidewalks and /or pathways in the area. Warehouse markets will be required at the time of building permit approval to place cement concrete curbs and sidewalks adjacent to their property both on University and on Oberlin. Designated areas on the existing store and service station properties, to the north, should be marked for pedestrians. Our 1982 construction program proposes to place additional sidewalks on University from 4th to 17th and on 16th from Oberlin to Glenn. Traffic Signals are also scheduled for the intersection of 16th and University and can be programed for exclusive pedestrian movements. cc: Michel H. Saad FILE N0.

Should you require any further information to make your declaration on the environmental checklist please inform me. Sincere � \131_ Pat Harper consultant 455 -5141 NOISE a. Existing CondiCions 9 The noise environment in any ,given area is of two types: +. ambient noise and identifiable noise produced by specific sources. Ambient noise is associated with the overall effect of long -term noise producing activities. It fa11s within the range of pressures created by the rustle of pine trees and the chirping of birds (the minimum ambient), to the unidentifiable sounds of vehicular traffic in an area (usually the maximum ambient). Identifiable noise levels are associated with the short term effect of a singular not -se producing activity and fall within a similar minimum -to- maximum range. Noise levels are expressed in A- weighted deci.bles of db(A), a single - number direct measurement of sound pressure which is weighted to approximate the response of the human ear. For purposes of this report, three sites were chosen with individual test points within each site. The sites include: A. Subject property and University El.ementry School parking lot; B. Adams Road Warehouse Market; C. Roundup Grocery parking Lot on Montgomery. Receiving properties impacted by this proposal are, University Elementary School to the east, 7 -11 Store, offices and an Exxon Service Station to the north, single family residences to the south and across Oberlin to the west single family residences. The major concern from people of the area is the classroom environment of University Elementary School. In regards to the classroom environment, in a building not specially designed for a noisy environment can be expected to alternate 15 -20 dbA. The closest classroom wing is located approximately 50 feet from University Road. Distance to the uuLoading area from the school is approximately 332 feet from the classroom wing. It is recommended that in classrooms levels of 50 dbA has been established as the desirable Level to reach 100 percent sentence intelligibility.

The test area was on the sidewalk directl.y in front of the closest classroom wing: Ambient Identifiable 42 -47 56 -66 At 1:30 p.m. a loaded Round -up truck entered the site from Oberlin and exited, noise levels were undistinguishable when cars were passing on University Road. When noise tapered from traffic, the noise from the truck was 65 dbA. ( noise was from University Road.) "V Receiving Property: Subject property, east property line adjacent to University Road: 12 -12 -80 Ambient Identi.fi.able 42 -47 62 -72" (1 noise was from university Read.) Receiving Property: Subject property, Northwest property corner south of the 7 -11 Store. Ambient Identifiable 42 -46 60 -70 " ( noise was from University Road, Oberlin and 16th Avenue.)

There are no noise intrusions on the project site at the present time. From monitoring sites on or near the site, the major noise producing, source are cars and various sized trucks on the surrounding roadways. b. Probable Lmpact of the Proposed Action The noise impacts of the proposed grocery store will be generated by three sources, additional vehicular traffic, truck deliveries and compressor noise for fixtures within the store. The most significant noise producers will be during construction when earthmovers and trucks may produce noise levels as high as 96 dbA. The equipment used in building structures includes foundation preparation and laying equipment and machinery related to erecting the structures. Noise peaks related to erecO ng buildings are normally associated with daylight hour activity., These peaks are associated with hammering and sawing and from the traffic which is hauling supplies and materials. Noises generated by these activities should range from 70 to 90 dbA. It should be emphasized that all these noise levels are for a receptor distance of 50 feet. Noise levels generated by construction activities on -site will be short -term and confined to normal working on -site during the construction phase. Noise impacts generated from additional vehicular traffic, truck traffic and compressor noise will increase in duration but noise levels should not be significantly greater than those now being generated by existing traffic. The increase in the above stated intrusions will ._ombine to create a noise level exceeding that now existing, but this impact can be mitigated significantly by the fottowing measures to mitigate. C. Measures to Mitigate Advyrse Impacts . Possible noise problems created from construction operations will be mitigated by several factors, including the following: The distance of construction activities from both residences and the elementary school, (there is a four to five dbA reduction for each doubling of distance beginning with 100 feet); construction will be temporary in nature; and construction activities will be limited to normal working hours (7 a.m. to 6 p.m.). Houses existing in the area will provide a degree of noise buffering on their own. The noise level inside a typical house, (with windows and doors closed) is 20 to 27 dbA less than the noise level outside the same house. The elementary school will benefit from both the distance factor, in regards to heavy truck traffic, and noise buffering from the school structure itself. Additional measures can be applied off the actual site, one being routing truck,traffic down Dishman -Mica, 16th, to Oberlin. This will provide less noise from heavy truck traffic which might distract elementary children. Truck deliveries to the store should be restricted to working hours and not intrude upon school children arriving and leaving the school. These hours would be 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. Estimated arrival times for truck deliveries should be from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and L p.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. This would schedule the noisiest operations from truck traffic during, hours which would cause the least amount of hazards and noise intrusions to surrounding uses. Compressors for the store will be designed to exhaust upward so as to negate noise intrusions to neighboring properties. This along with the use of properly operating mufflers and quieting devices should mitigate undue adverse impacts. 4 d. UnavoLdable Adverse Impacts Noise generated by the proposed project will. unavoidably intrude upon the existing ambient noise levels on the site now. The intrusion will be most noticeable during construction activities, which wLll be temporary in nature. When the new store is on -site, noise wiL1 be generated by increased traffic, compressor noise and truck deliveries. , . . _.,,.. _.,,,,,._ - I TRANSPORTATION Vehicular Transportation CeneraCed a. Existing Conditions Circulation for the proposed site is from three roads, University on the East, 16th Avenue to the North and Oberlin to the West. The following circulation map shows 16th Avenue as the major east -west access to Dishman -Mica Road, a north - south major access road. University is a north -south access road linking to Sprague Avenue, a major east -west road.

Traffic generators affecting the site Lnclude resLdentLal neighborhoods, elementary school, two small local businesses to thenorth, a 7 -IL Store and a Standard gas station, and to tlic south at the intersection of University and Dishman -Mica also exists Local business uses. Traffic flow patterns from residential. neighborhoods are mornLng work and school traffic along 16th and University linking with Sprague and 1 -90 to the North. ThLS flow is reversed for evening traffic with incidental trips being gener- ated for extra - curricular school activities and local business shopping. The average daily traffic flows are adjusted 24 hour flows inputing seasonal variations. Following is a table representing average daily traffic. AVERAGE DAILY TRAFFIC Road University 16th 1. 16th 2 Oberlin 7_rips 5800 485 - 5 200 47-&0- 570 100 -200 ' � -- Presently a four -way stop sign exists at the intersection of 16th and University. The intersection of University and Dishman -Mica as well as 16th a n d Dishman -Mica is also maintained by just a stop si gn.` Oberlin requires sto ping prior to proceeding on 16th. b. Probable Impact of the Proposed Action The proposed use will generate additional vehicular traffic on existing roadways. In order to determine approximate usage of the facility a survey was taken at a store of comparable size and customer usage as is anticipated at this proposed store. *16th -I is east of University and 16th-2 is west of University. Average use of the survey sLure was 720 customers per day, seven days per week. Trip generation would be 1,440 trips shoulj all customers make a separate trip to the store. These 1,440 trips would be distributed over a 12 hour day with peak traffic between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., traffic generated between these hours would be roughly 25 percent of the total customers of the day. Also to be taken into con- sideration is the number of customers on their way to or from specific points other than the proposed building. This "drop -in" customer will probably make up 30 percent of the total customers using the facility. There will be an increase of traffic at the intersection of 16th and University as well as 16th and Dishman -Mica and University and Dishman -Mica. These increases should still be within the capacities at which these roads are built. Increased truck traffic will necessitate improvements to Oberlin as well as 16th. Increased traffic at the intersection of 16th and University could necessitate a traffic light. c. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Public attitude could serve as a mitigating measure if, when going to a specific destination, the individual would do several different tasks. For,example - -a mother taking her child to school could stop and shop completing two tasks with one trip, hopefully this would happen once this store is constructed. Oberlin should be expanded to negate circulation problems with car versus truck traffic, additionally the radius on the turn from 16th to Oberlin should be widened as well. 1'r could be maintaLned at a better pace if lig h l t___was functioning at 16th and University, this site in and of itself does not warrant this but future traffic projections might bring about its inception. d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts The proposed project will generate additional vehicular traffic in the area. Oberlin will experience truck traffic to serve this site which it does not presently experience. MOVEMENT /CIRCULATION OF PEOPLE OR GOODS a. Existing Conditions Traffic circulation has already been discussed for this site. Currently movement of goods involves the transport of items appurtenant to 7 -11 Stores and a Standard Service Station. Movement of people to and from neighborhoods and children to and from University Elementary School. b. Probable Impact of the Proposed Action As discussed earlier, the movement of people and goods �.. will increase significantly as a - result of this project. Vehicular Traffic, pedestrian traffic, bicycle traffic, and motorized freight traffic will establish significant move- ment patterns in the site vicinity. c. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Previously identified measures will reduce impacts caused by the proposed site, these included improvement of existing roadways and public attitude changes. d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. TRAFFIC HAZARDS a. Existing Conditions There is one existing area that might be considered a traffic hazard, that is the intersection of 16th and University 1.978: Year 1978 1979 1980 Following is a chart. showing accidents since ACCIDENT CHART Injury 1 1 Property Damage 3 L *Information from Spokane County Engineering Department. No fatal accidents have occurred at this intersection. b. Probable impact of the Proposed Action Existing conditions will be affected by the proposed project. More truck traffic as well as vehicular traffic will increase the potential accident rate. C. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Several measures have been discussed which would mitigate traffic hazards. Their appropriateness will be determined by the rate vehicular volumes increase and the impact of that increase at individual traffic points. Measures include street widening, installing signal. controls, possible turning lanes, for vehicular traffic. Continuation of school patrols and additional curbing and sidewalks can mitigate pedestrian - vehicle conflict. d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts There will be an increase in potential vehicular /pedestrian accidents, but should not be a significant increase if mitigating measures are implemented. p) ©kane W February 9, 1981 'eional 'tannin TRANSPORTATION STUDY DIVISION M E M O R A N D U M C000�c��c�ooc�c�� z , Phone 509 - 456 -4325 f : SpBCAdE Ci�uWTl aPo61gfE�4:- FEB1 0 )K81 .: . To: Gary Kennaly From: Jim Borgan / Subject: Air Quality Analysis of Proposed Supermarket at Sixteenth Avenue and University Road As discussed this morning, representatives of a citizens' group concerned about the impacts of the proposed supermarket had been referred to us by the Washington State Department of Ecology. The attached letter with its attachment, has been sent to Mrs. Diane Schneider. The second attachment is documentation of the analysis performed for Mrs. Schneider. As discussed, the procedures are con- sistent with those used during the 1979/1980 revisions to Spokane's Air Quality Implementation Plan since they were developed for use in analyzing central business district characteristics, they are likely to somewhat exaggerate effects in outlying areas. The analysis of vehicular characteristics indicate the intersection would go from the upper limits of level of service "A" during peak periods to the lower limits of level of service "B ".

For comparison purposes, data on monitored carbon monoxide concentrations and vehicular characteristics were obtained for the vicinity around the East Valley fire station (the air quality monitoring station closest to the proposal). The results of the analyses are summarized in the attachment. Based upon the analyses and the results, it was concluded that the proposal would probably not create violations of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. As was discussed on January 30, 1981, definitive evaluations at the site are not possible without on -site air quality monitoring; nonetheless, the magnitude of difference in vehicular traffic between the proposal and the East Valley fire station, and the relatively low concentrations recorded at the fire station, would provide strong evidence that violations are not likely to occur at the elementary school as a result 'of the proposed supermarket. If you have additional questions or require clarification of any of the information provided, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. Very truly yours, Robert A. Vaughan, P.E.

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.

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 another 8000 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 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. V&-L— 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 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. 2 James L. Manson (2) September 26, 1980 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 II Environmental Impacts: #1, (b); #2, (a), (b); #3,(b), (c), (i); #6, (a); #7, (a); #8,(a); #11; 0 12; N 13, (a), (b), (c), (d), (f); #14, (a), (b), (c), (d), (e); X15, (b); k 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.

O Ms. Diane Schneider �- Concerned Citizens for Proper Zoning East 10722 20th Avenue Spokane, Washington 99206 spc' Dear Ms. Schneider: This letter is in response to your phone call expressing concern over the adverse noise effects which could be created by the operation of a ware- house market to the west of the existing University Elementary School. The noise impact generally considered most severe for schools is speech interference. As is indicated in the enclosed article, noise can interfere with the children's ability to hear lectures and classroom discussions. The factors which determine the extend to which noise affects speech commu- nication are: -- location - -the attenuation characteristics of the building - -the vocal effort and characteristics of the talkers - -the background noise level and spectrum Due to the fact that I have not visitd the site in question, it is impossible to accurately predict the noise levels which would reach the classroom level. However, the utilization of commonly accepted standards can be helpful for a general analysis. For example, a heavy truck is typically measured at 90 dBA (decibels on a A- weighted scale) at a fifty foot distance. A building which is riot specially designed for a noisy environment can be expected to attenuate 15 -20 dBA. It is our under- standing that a wing of classrooms is located at fifty feet from, and directly facing the area where trucks may be unloading. This would result in classroom levels in excess of the indoor level (50 dBA) which has been identified as permitting 100 percent sentence intelligebility. -2- Clearly, heavy trucks have the potential to interrupt normal classroom activities. Factors determining the degree of disruption include hours of delivery, location of trucks and the attenuation characteristics of the school building. The enclosed article should be very helpful. Although it was published in a nationwide journal, it deals specifically with the noise problems in Washington schools. If you have any questions please contact me at (206) 442 -1253.

Mosher AICP. BUILDING CODES DEPT. Page 1, Paragraph four: reference in regard to "15 -20 dbA" is a letter from the Environmental Protection Agency to Ms. Diane Schneider. Copies of the letter are on file as public record at the Building codes Department. For convience a copy is attached. In regards to the referenced 332 feet from the loading dock to the school, this area is uninterrupted. While the loading dock is recessed with a retaining wall, compressors on trucks as well as engine noise will be above the retaining wall. (See site plan on file at Building Codes' Department, a smaller, partial site plan is attached.) Page ?: a general "valley" map is attached showing all noise test sites. Page 3: Estimates of noise levels at receivers locations can be made from subtracting the noise attenuation factors from the noise level readings in the text. Therefore, noise levels inside the closest existing school wing (with no interior noise) can be estimated to be Ambient: 27 -32 (using 15 dbA factor for building structure attenuation) another 12 dbA can be subtracted for the distance factor of 332 feet, thus ambient noise within the school would be 15 to 20 dbA. Using the same attenuation factors, identifiable noise within the school would be: 41 -51 dbA without the distance factor, with the distance factors subtracted 29 -39 dbA. Adjacent residential properties will receive variable noise levels depending on distance to the loading, dock and compressors. Therefore, to anticipate the worse case basis, we will use the low noise attentuation factor and closest resident to the site which will be only approximately 1.40 feet from the store. Ambient 27 -31, Identifiable 45 -55 dbA. Subtra:ting 4 dbA for distance (4 dbA /100' distance) Ambient 23 -27, Identifiable 41 -51 dbA. Page 4, Paragraph one: While the temporary nature of the construction activity is not a mitigating measure, if the project is not E unduly delayed, normal working hours would be observed, however, the impact is not long term and it is unlikely that in any construction' activity on this site (whether it is this proposed development or some other) would limit construction working hours. It is noted that the temporary nature of the construction is not a mitigating measure: Paragraph two: The closing of windows should be considered a mitigating measure because it does attenuate sound to some degree. During nonworking hours windows may be opened, which is during, the cooler parts of the day. Paragraph three: The distance factor was taken into consideration in estimating recieving properties noise levels. Paragraph five: As has been stated in the anticipated noise levels, the early morning deliveries should have little effect on adjacent properties. *Compressors at the proposed store are a new line versus the compressors at the Adams store which are open and louvered for cooli.ng., purposes. The new compressors will be-located on top of the .? building and nni_sa screened to direct noise up, away from adjacent nronerties. The new compressors produce less noise than those tested. TRANSPORTATION Vehicular Transportation Generated a. Existing Conditions Circulation for the proposed site is from three roads, University on the East, 16th Avenue to the North and Oberlin to the West. The following circulation map shows 16th Avenue as the major east -west access to Dishman -Mica Road, a north - south major access road. University is a north -south access road linking to Sprague Avenue, a major east -west road. Following is a chart summarizing existing right -of -way widths, pavement widths and capacity of the existing road network. EXISTING ROAD NETWORK ROAD Right of Way Width Pavement Width Capacity University 1 60 ft 34 ft 820 /per /hr . University 2 50 ft 30 ft 1160 /per /hr 16th Ave. 3 60 ft 38 ft 700 /per /hr 16th Ave. 4 60 ft 36 ft 760 /per /hr Oberlin 50 ft 20 ft 150 - 200 /per /day Following are existing average daily traffic counts at University and 16th Ave. North Leg 5964 vehicles South Leg 5824 vehicles West Leg 5661 vehicles East Leg 51.63 vehicles *Source: Spokane County Engineers Department Nov. 14,1980. Oberlin does not have existing traffic count figures. An estimation for this road is approximately 150 -200 trips per day. *University L is south of 16th; University 2 is north of 16th; 16th 3 is west of University and 16th 4 is east of University. u• Traffic generators affecting the site include residential. neighborhoods, elementary school, two small local businesses to the north, a 7 -1.1 Store and a Standard gas station, and to south at the intersection of University and Dishman -Mica also exists local business uses. Traffic_ flow patterns from residential neighborhoods are morning work and school traffic along 16th and University linking with Sprague and I -90 to the North. This flow is reversed for evening traffic with incidental trips being generated for extra - curricular school activities and local business shopping. The average daily traffic flows are adjusted 24 hour flows inputing seasonal variations. Following is a table representing average daily traffic. AVERAGE DAILY TRAFFIC Road Trip University 5800 16th 1 5200 16th 2 1 5700 Oberlin 100 -200 Presently a four -way stop sign exists at the intersection of 16th and University. The intersection of University and Dishman -Mica as well as 16th and Dishman -Mica is also maintained by just a stop sign. Oberlin requires stoping, prior to proceeding on 16th. b. Probable Impact of the Proposed Action The proposed use will generate additional vehicular traffic on existing roadways. In order to determine approximate usage of the facility a survey was taken at a store of comparable size and customer usage as is anticipated at this proposed store. The comparable store is located at McKinnon and Sprague. *16th 1 is east of University and 16th 2 is west of University. Average use of the store was 720 customers per day. This number was taken from a survey ran Monday through Friday the entire month of September and the first 10 days of October 1980. Trip generation would be roughly 1,440 trios per day should all customers make a separate trip to the store. These 1,440 trips would be distributed over a 12 hour period with peak traffic between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., approximately 57 percent of the customers shop during school hours, (all above figures taken from previously mentioned survey). Also to be taken into consideration is the number of "drop -in" customers on their way to or from specific points other thanthe proposed building. There will. be an increase of traffic at the intersection of 16th and University as well as 16th and Dishman -Mica and University and Dishman -Mica intersections. These increases will be within the capacities at which these roads were buil.t. Increased traffic will necessitate improvements to Oberlin as well as 16th Ave. Increased traffic at the intersection of 16th and University could in the near future require the use of a traffic signal light. c. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Public attitude could serve as a mitigating measure if, when going to a specific destination, the individual would do several different tasks. For example - -a mother taking her child to school could stop and shop completing two tasks with one trip, hopefully this would happen once this store is constructed. Oberlin should be widened to 30 feet paved, to negate circulation problems with car versus truck traffic. Additionally, the radius should be improved to allow truck traffic on 1.6th and Oberlin. Traffic flow could be maintained at a better pace if a traffic signal light was functioning at 16th and University, this site in and of itself does not warrant this but future traffic generation might bring its inception. 0 d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts The proposed project will generate additional vehicular traffic in the.area. Oberlin will experience truck traffic to serve this site which it does not presently experience. 3 MOVEMENT /CIRCULATION OF PEOPLE OR GOODS a. Existing Conditions Traffic circulation has already been discussed for this site. Currently movement of goods involves the transport of items appurtenant to 7 -11 Stores and a Standard Service Station. Movement of people to and from neighborhoods and children to and from University Elementary School. b. Probable Impact of the Proposed Action As discussed earlier, the movement of people and goods will increase significantly as a result of this project. Vehicular Traffic, pedestrian traffic, bicycle traffic, and motorized freight traffic will establish significant movement patterns in the site vicinity. c. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Previously identified measure will reduce impacts caused by the proposed site, these included improvement of existing roadways and implementation of sidewalks being constructed on and about the site. d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased traffic will bring, about a degree of circulation problems in the area. TRAFFIC HAZARDS a. Existing Conditions There is one existing area that might be considered a traffic hazard, that is the intersection of 16th and University. Following is a chart showing accidents since 1978: ACCIDENT CHART Year Injury 1978 1 1979 1 1980 1 Property Damage 3 1 *Information from Spokane County Engineering Department No fatal accidents have occurred at this intersection. b. Probable Impact of the Proposed Action Existing conditions will be affected by the proposed project. More truck traffic as well as vehicular traffic will increase the potential accident rate including potential pedestrian - vehicle accidents. c. Measures to Mitigate Adverse Impacts Several measures have been discussed which would mitigate traffic hazards. Their appropriateness will be determined-by the rate vehicular volumes increase and the impact of that increase at individual. traffic points. Measures include street widening and installing signal controls, possible turning lanes, for vehicular traffic. Continuation of school. patrols and additional curbing and sidewalks can mitigate pedestrian - vehicle conflict. Sidewalks should be constructed adjacent to the elementary school providing a recognized pedestrian flow area. Sidewalks will be constructed on the proposed project but unless continuity of sidewalks in the area are not realized this effort will provide only a small mitigating measure. d. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts There will be an increase in potential vehicular /pedestrian accidents, but should not be a significant increase if mitigating measures are implemented.

SIGNED: DATED: z- Z �.7, j - osdH ZLC Tie lei cuvo EV i ?'T,J:' y — GT S2vtidcII�iL I \UloG 9 Government by definition has been' felt by most Americans to be a "pro- tector" of individual's rights, but there are a lot of people ( up to 4,000) in the residential area served by University elementary school who are'beginning to entertain serious , ,—, ,doubts that they are getting very good service from county agencies in respect to being concerned about the safety of their children. An application by Warehouse In- dustries of Billings for a building per- mit.to build a 21,600 sq. ft. building directly across the street from the elementary school has stirred up the community to a fever pitch. Objections have been made to county authorities that traffic gen- erated by such a market will severe - ly increase hazards to children going to and from school seem to go un- heeded, Mrs. Terry Lundin, S1808 University, secretary of the home- owners' group, and Mrs. Diane Schneider, E10722 20th, complained to the Valley Herald Tuesday. Thev charge that officials have even mislt(f them as to the am time they )h the issuance of permits to build the market. Like the heroine in the old movie serials, it was only by chance that a time limitfor appeals hadnpt run out on them. Believing they had been told they had 30 days from Jan. 23 to get their defense together, they found rather accidentally on the day their time expired that they had between 4 and 5 p.m. on that day to file their papers. NOW. THEY say, they are being kept on tenterhooks by Jim Emacio. deputy prosecutor, as to when a hear- ing on their appeal will be held. There is some concern expressed that such a date will be set only after dirt starts moving on the construction project. A further source of frustration ex- pressed by the spokeswomen is that county officials charged with super- vising the appropriateness of en- vironmental impacts seem to take a light view of the seriousness that result from building a busy food market directly across the street from an elementary school. The area in question is primarily residential. There is a service station on the corner of 16th and University, - and a 7 -11 market adjacent, but these are provided for in- zoning restric- tions which apply to the area, the ladies said. To compound the irritations, an impact statement filed by the Ware- house Industries was accepted at face value, charges Mrs. Lundin. Even the findings given are now perilously close to state environ- mental protection agency limits in matters of noise. "Imagine what the noise level will be when 2,700 cars a day drive in and out of that parking lot, and when huge truck - trailers park for long periods with their diesels running while they unload groceries," Mrs. Lundin said. The property owners contend that James L. Manson, director of the permit section of the county, who on Jan. 23 issued a "final declaration of �S i j non- significance," did not correctly evaluate the impact statement's fi- gures, and even adopted the miti- gating suggestions which the market operators said residents could take upon themselves to minimize prob- lems which may result from the oper- ation of a market at the location. THESE SUGGESTIONS, contained in'Manson's declaration, included: 1. That construction hours be Ii- mited from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. 2. That trucks delivering goods to the store be routed down ,Dish- man -Mica Rd. to 16th, east on 16th to Oberlin and then south to the store. '3. That arrival times for truck deliveries be from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. 4. That Oberlin Rd. be improved -to comply with'the requirements of the Spokane county engineer, including any improvements at the inter- section of 16th -and Oberlin. t5. That the store not be open for business prior to 9 a.m. I6. That adequate provisions be em- ployed to control dust during con- struction. 7. That the school crosswalk im- mediately to the east of the project site be relocated to the satisfaction of the county engineer. 8. That all fees relating to the build-, ing permit be paid prior to issuance. 9. That designated areas on the existing store and service station properties to the north be marked for pedestrians. 1. Opponents of the building, even pointed out that on April 12, 1955, the Central Valley school board adopted a resolution asking the county plan- ning commission prevent the establishment of commercial sites in areas surrounding a number of dis- trict schools, including the proposed University elementary. - Gilbert C. Mills, retired super- intendent of the district, appr-ared at a hearing before the zoning adjustor to claim that the county had, in fact, entered into an agreement with the school district to that effect. HOWEVER, CHARGE the spokes- women for the residents of the area, they have * been told by county of- ficials that that particular file has been "lost" and is not available for admission. - Seeking to get copies from school district files, officers of the home- owners' group found themselves sty- mied by individual privacy laws that prevent them from perusing school files because they might see some- thing of a derogatory nature of,some former or present 'student. A letter from Helen Blair, former board member, was submitted testifying that an agreement to not permit commercial development ex- isted. The ladies say they had submitted testimony from an Eastern Washing- ton University professor that placing a traffic light at 16th and University would tend to form queues of cars on University that wo occupy stu- dent crosswalks.

Opponents of the large food mar -, ket south of -16th and University feel they have won a battle, and now they are girding to win the war. Warehouse Markets this week stated they will not build their pro- posed market on the site. Jack Heus- ton, general manager, said he would not comment on the firm's reasons, but acknowledged they have dropped their proposal. Reacting to that, Mrs. Terry Lun- din, one of the leaders of the opposi- tion, commented, "I can't tell you how pleased we are with that deci- sion." Her group will drop its appeal to the county commissioners over the declaration of non - significance issued for the market. BUT THEY HAVE no intention of let- ting the matter drop completely, she stated. The citizens group plans to continue working with the ad hoc committee set up by- Central Valley school district in studying suitable uses for the property which is across the street from University ele- mentary school. "We definitely won't drop the mat- ter," said Mrs. Lundin. "That would be like winning the battle, then turn- ing around and losing the war." What they are interested in doing now, she said, is getting the school district to list suitable enterprises for land near its schools, "including this parcel. A complete listing is their goal, something which would indicate a range of suitability. The citizen group also will look into the possibility of sponsoring rezon- ing action for the property in ques- tion, she said. THEIR ACTION, however, will be taken keeping the legal rights of the land owner in mind, Mrs. Lundin emphasized. "After all, he has legal rights, too," she said, adding the citizen group would welcome the chance to work with the owner in its further study. Mrs. Lundin said, she felt that a combination of factors, including her group's continuing pressure, led Warehouse Markets to theirdecision to not build the market. Meanwhile, a,meeting called for next Monday by the University elementary school PTA to bring the community up to date on the issue will go on as scheduled. It will be at the school at 7 p.m. .Plans for the future will' be dis- cussed during the session along with a safety presentation, property value talk, discussion of land cov- enants and other topics.
