ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS
Analysis and resulting recommendations based on the entirety of the application materials, municipal codes, standards,
plans, public comment, and all other materials available during the review period. Collectively this information is the record
of the review. The analysis in this report is a summary of the completed review.
Plan Review, Section 38.230.100, BMC
In considering applications for plan approval under this title, the Director of Community Development shall consider the
following:
1. Conformance with Article 1 -Consistency with the City's adopted Growth Meets Code?
Policy 38.100.040.1)
Growth Policy Community Commercial Mixed Use Yes
Land Use
Zoning B-2M Yes
Comments:2020 Plan: Community Commercial Mixed Use.The Community Commercial Mixed Use Designation
promotes commercial areas necessary for economic health and vibrancy.This includes professional and personal services,
retail,education,health services,offices,public administration,and tourism establishments.Developments in this land use
area should be located on one or two quadrants of intersections of the arterial and/or collector streets and integrated with
transit and non-automotive routes.Due to past development patterns,there are also areas along major streets where this
category is organized as a corridor rather than a center.Although a broad range of uses may be appropriate in both types of
locations,the size and scale is to be smaller within the local service areas.Building and site designs made to support easy
reuse of the building and site over time is important.Mixed-use areas should be developed in an integrated,pedestrian friendly
manner and should not be overly dominated by any single use.Higher intensity uses are encouraged in the core of the area
or adjacent to significant streets and intersections.Building height or other methods of transition may be required for
compatibility with adjacent development.Smaller neighborhood scale areas are intended to provide local service to an area of
approximately one half-mile to one-mile radius as well as passersby.These smaller centers support and help give identity to
neighborhoods by providing a visible and distinct focal point as well as employment and services.Densities of nearby homes
needed to support this scale are an average of 14 to 22 dwellings per net acre.The proposed site plan is meeting the 2020
Plan with a commercial infill building in an urban renewal district that will serve the adjacent neighborhoods and broader trade
area with access to the interstate from North 70 Avenue.The design of the building with a 13-foot floor to ceiling height
provides for flexibility for reuse of the building over time.
2. Conformance with Article 1 -All other applicable laws,ordinances, and
regulations (38.100.080)
Condominium ownership Yes
Comments:Additional steps will be required including but not limited to review of building permits and
infrastructure plans. The Building Division of the Department of Community Development will review the
requirements of the International Building Code for compliance at the time of building permit application.
3. Conformance with Article, including the cessation of any current violations Meets Code?
(38.200.160)
Current Violations None Yes
Comments: There are no current violations on the property.
4. Conformance with Article 2-Submittal material (38.220) requirements and Meets Code?
plan review for applicable permit types (38.230)
Site Plan Yes
Submittal requirements 38.220.100 Yes
