Feb 4, 2018 City of Redmond - Development Services Center 15670 NE 85th St, Redmond, WA 98052 Ref: LAND-2016-01036- Neighborhood Feedback We have been homeowners on NE 22nd Ct, Redmond for the past 1 0+ years, and we have been in the Redmond/Bellevue area for the past 19 years. Our twin sons are 7 years old. We are active in community events and in our Church. We love being here in Redmond and always look for ways to continually improve our community and support our neighbors. This letter contains our feedback on the Proposed "LAND-2016-01036". This proposed shelter has been in discussion for the past couple of years but has failed to address the concerns of the neighborhood and homeowners in the immediate vicinity. The information provided by the applicants about developments for the center has been spotty and communication with the neighborhood has been limited at best and misleading (see large white sign section). This part of the letter will focus on the most recent events: Technical Committee Review and the City of Redmond Comprehensive Plan. I am including my previous letter for continuity and copies the relevant city documents. The Technical Committee should be an independent review of a proposal and then it is measured against the laws and rules for the City. In reading over the Technical Committee Report (see attached), there are several issues that seem to be overlooked by the Technical Committee. 1. Technical Committee Report on Page 7 states that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. This is incorrect, and the plan is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. They provide several pages of support for this, but oddly seem to ignore the parts of the Comprehensive Plan that makes this proposal inconsistent with the City of Redmond Comprehensive Plan. First, Designation Policies LU-33 and LU-34 purpose and allowed use on page 5-12. LU-33 Single-Family Constrained Designation Purpose. Provide for low-density residential neighborhoods for lands inappropriate for more intense urban development due to significant environmentally critical areas, extreme cost or difficulty in extending public facilities, or the presence of natural features Redmond is seeking to retain. Allowed Uses. Implement this designation through zones that allow densities of one to three dwelling units per acre. Permit detached single-familv homes, equestrian facilities, the keeping of animals compatible with the size of the property, and other uses consistent with this designation. Page 1 of 15 2 ---PAGE BREAK--- LU-34 Single-Family Urban Designation Purpose. Provide for low- to moderate-density residential neighborhoods on lands suitable for urban development. Provide opportunities for a variety of primarily detached single-family housing types, sizes, densities and prices in a manner that is compatible with neighborhood character. Allowed Uses. Implement this designation through zones that allow densities of four to eight dwelling units per gross acre. Apply zones by taking into account the direction in Policies LU-1 0 and LU-26. Require a minimum site size of one acre for rezones to eight dwelling units per acre. Permit detached single-familv homes; in zones that allow eight dwelling units per acre, attached single- family (multiplex) homes. Also permit the keeping of animals compatible with the size ofthe property. Unless otherwise permitted on a citywide, neighborhood or pilot program basis, consider allowing cottages, attached single familv homes, and other types of innovative housing through a conditional review process in zones that allow six dwelling units per acre or less. The underline was added for emphasis. In reviewing the definition of Family provided by RZC: Zoning code RZC 21.78 Definition ofFamily (http://online.encodeplus.com/regs/redmond-wa/doc-viewer.aspx?secid=549) Family. An individual or two or more persons related by blood or marriage; eight or fewer nonrelated persons living together in a single dwelling unit, unless a grant of reasonable accommodation as identified in RZC 21. 76, Review Procedures, allows an additional number of persons. As the Technical Committee Report states in section II and III, the proposed site itself is Single- Family Constrained Residential with the surrounding locations are Single-Family Constrained Residential and one Single-Family Urban Residential. They further say that the proposal complies with all the site requirements for the R-3 (Single-Family Constrained Residential) Zone. This is not correct. Having a 40-person homeless shelter does not meet this definition of single-family described in the Comprehensive Plan and the RZC which limits to 8 or fewer non-related persons living together in a single dwelling unit and is not allowed. Just considering that 40 people of which some may be related but most would not be related by blood or marriage in a single-family residential home and residential neighborhood is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Page 11 of the Technical Committee Report states: "The proposal conforms to the site requirements set forth in RZC 21.08.050 R-3 Zone. BelRed Family Resource Center will continue to maintain the appearance of a single-family residence. [emphasis added] There will be no exterior work done to the existing structure itself; therefore, the intended character, appearance, quality of development and physical characteristics of the property will not be affected The existing single-family house will continue to appear as a single- family home as to blend into the neighborhood". Page 2 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- So long as something appears to be something it is not, appearance matters more than fact? Surprising that the Technical Committee would put forth such a statement? Amazing! Appearance is not an acceptable workaround for a non-permitted activity per RZC on what is permitted in a single-family residence zone! Clearly this is incorrect as the zoning codes allow and dis-allow specific types of activities in a single-family residential area. The technical committee is incorrect in making the statement that appearance only is acceptable; it is missing that intended use is also a zone requirement. First, because the category of "social assistance, welfare and charitable services" is not listed anywhere under Comprehensive Plan LU-33 and LU-34 and the RZC for R-3 Zone, so the Redmond Zoning Code prohibits the use of the subject property as a homeless shelter. Second, it fails to meet the requirements of a family for a single- family residence. Lastly, they do plan to alter the grounds as with page 18 (section 4.d) "Smoking Area. The designated smoking area shall be located the furthest point from the western property line that meets the minimum required distance from the facility's doors and windows". There will now be a separate section near some neighbors that could have smoking (I would assume including marijuana) that the 40-person residents can utilize. The Technical Committee Review and RZC 21.76.070 LAND USE ACTIONS AND DECISION CRITERIA (http://online.encodeplus.com/reQs/redmond-wa/doc-viewer.aspx?secid=3050)- see attached Section K.5.H states: "The proposed facility must be consistent with the Redmond Comprehensive Plan, unless the Comprehensive Plan would preclude the location of such facilities anywhere within the City;" The Comprehensive Plan states: (uliti;Ji, il~t; L: Jciti)1 • :P 11 )/c1t1) 1. On Page 1-6 "How Is the Plan Implemented? A number of tools are used to implement the Comprehensive Plan. The Zoning Code contains a set of regulations to direct land use and design as new development or redevelopment occurs. Growth is also directed in keeping with the City's land use and community character goals through careful planning for the location and sizing of capital facilities." Furthermore, on page 3-1 "Redmond has maintained its distinctive character. The quality design of new development is a reflection of the value Redmond's community members place on the community's appearance." Bold is added for emphasis. Having a 40-person shelter in a single-family residential neighborhood and rotating the residents of the shelter continuously does not maintain the same character of the neighborhood. 2. The proposal is inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan on page 5-10 "LU-27 Apply zones consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map designations as follows: Single-Family Constrained R-1, R-2, R-3 Single-Family Urban R-4, R-5, R-6, R-8 and Residential Innovative (RIN)" Page 3 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- The 40-person shelter is not consistent with an R-3 designation and fails to meet the RZC definition of single-family as described above. Furthermore, the Zoning Code expressly prohibits land uses not listed in the category of authorized uses under its individual zone use charts: "Permitted Uses in Zone Use Charts. Each zone use chart in RZC 21.08.020 through RZC 21.08.140 lists categories of land uses that may be permitted and any kind of conditional review process which may be required. Land uses not listed are prohibited unless otherwise provided bv this chapter or some other provision of the Zoning Code." RZC 21.08.160.A (underlining added). Because the subject property is zoned R-3, the individual zone summary set forth in RZC 21.08.050 applies. Under the heading of "R-3 Single-Family Constrained Residential," that Code section provides this "zone provides for low-density residential at a base density of three dwellings per acre on lands inappropriate for more intense urban development due to significant environmentally critical areas, extreme cost, or difficulty in extending public facilities or the presence of natural features Redmond is seeking to retain." RZC 21.08.050.A. The uses allowed in R-3 zoned property are set forth in RZC 21.08.050.D. Because the category of"social assistance, welfare and charitable services" is not listed anywhere under section D, the Redmond Zoning Code prohibits the use of the subject property as a homeless shelter. So, the proposal is inconsistent with the City of Redmond Comprehensive Plan. 3. The proposal is inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan page 5-11 "Residential Redmond residents treasure their neighborhoods. Each neighborhood has characteristics that are unique and make it special. There are also qualities that many residents throughout Redmond frequently cite as ones they value about their neighborhoods. These qualities include safety, quiet, friendliness, attractiveness and a feeling of connection to their neighborhoods and to the community as a whole. And coupled with Page 13-1 "The result is a place where people are friendly, often meet others they know, and feel comfortable and connected". And Page 13-51 "Residents have also expressed an interest in public safety." With the transient nature of the planned residents of the shelter, these two sections are inconsistent with the proposal as to the short-term nature with no connection to the neighborhood. The applicant stated that they can transport residents from Seattle or other distant locations into the neighborhood so these connections are not possible and safety (as raised multiple times in the City Hall Neighborhood meetings where the Applicant stated that they cannot take responsibility for any people outside their property even if they are associated with the current residents and the Applicant stated that Homeless people have greater issues with substance abuse and violence) concerns will be on-going. 4. The Proposal is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan on page 13-52 N-ID-1 Support residents in ongoing and enhanced communication with the City, as well as community-building Page 4 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- efforts." And on page 13-56 for "Residential Policies: Idylwood is proud to be a diverse residential neighborhood within Redmond. The neighborhood contains an eclectic mix of old and new single-family homes ranging from custom lakefront homes to tract homes to vintage dwellings dating back over 70 years. . Neighborhood residents place significant value on this character throughout the majority of the neighborhood. Residents advocate maintaining the existing zoning, house sizes, proportionate dwelling size to lot size, and monitoring in-fill development and allowed density while preserving the current proportions of multifamily and single-family dwellings. Residents recognize the unique character among the geographic subareas and neighborhood subdivisions, , The proposal is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan with the very poor communications that have taken place with the Applicant working with the neighborhood (there was only a single neighborhood meeting done over 1 year ago on the project). Specifically, for our neighborhood, Idyl wood, this does not maintain the existing zoning and current proportions of multifamily and single-family dwellings as the target residence does not meet the RZC definition of single- family. One other significant communication failure was with the Large White Signs required to be placed on properties where some type of zoning action is under consideration. The signs and mailings were sent on the right before the deadlines for the upcoming Public Hearing. As can be seen in the picture below, the title simple states "BelRed Family Resource Center". Page 5 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- ~of Planning al1d Community~ I 5670 NE 85th Slreet m PO Box97010 Redmond. WA 98073·9710 There is no mention on the large white sign that this is a proposed homeless shelter or Women and Children Shelter/Home. The intent of the large white notice sign is to inform the public so that people will be informed of actions around their neighborhood. By using only the name "BelRed Family Resource Center", this is very misleading and does not convey the true intent of the proposed request for permit. Resource Center could be sometime as simple as an office for referrals and the tenn alone completely hides the true nature of a 24/7 homeless shelter. The flyer does have additional details on the project, but the project name on the flyer does not match the project name on the large white sign. The flyer contains "ECC Shelter" in the project name. This is another project name which confuses people trying to understand what is going on. The fact that this is a proposed shelter should be clearly displayed on the large white sign - without that information, the large white sign is misleading what the true intent of the public hearing for the permit. Additionally, the flyer clearly states an "Application and Completeness Date: June 7, 2017" -the project at that time (June) was called in emails and documents from the city as "Application LAND-2016-01036 ECC Women and Children Shelter" (or sometimes House) If the application refers to June 2017 as the application date, this again is confusing with project name changes. The sign should use the name that was used in June 2017 (and maybe list both names to make this very clear). £.le.ctRoMi:. ~t>.ttuAmD~_r_,, \1:'Jt 0.~X4Nt f{f2_ tJ1;,t . , (I r of t-e .rhe( feR , Page 6 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- On Sunday, I noticed a person walking their dog past the sign. He stopped to read the sign and then kept going. From this large white sign, the person would have no clue as to true intent of the permit request which is to establish a homeless shelter for up to 40 persons (in our single- family residence neighborhood). If the intent of Public Hearings is to inform residents, the large white sign should properly state the name from the June application and city emails/documents as a shelter and not mislead the true intent of the application. This was just a failed opp01tunity for greater communication with the proposal process and greater transparency with the neighborhood community. I and others pointed this out to the city and within days an 8x 11 inch paper was secured to the sign that had a job description indicating a 40-person shelter This was better than before, but the printing was certainly not a visible as the lettering on the large white sign. Again, this effort once again failed consistency with Comprehensive Plan on page 13-52 N-ID-1. , I , ~t Proposed Land Use Action Applicant: EVANGELICAL CHINESE CHURCH, CREEKSIDE COVENANT CHURCH Proposal Name: BELRED FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER Site Address: 2321 173rd Ave NE, REDMOND, WA 98052 • Proposed Action: TYPE Ill CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Hearing Date: FEBRUARY 5, 2018 6PM Comments Due: BEFORE 5PM FEBRUARY 5, 2018 TO SUBMIT COMMENTS OR OBTAIN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT CITY OF REDMOND AT : Department of Planning and Community Development 15670 NE 85th Street or PO Box 97010 Redmond, WA 98073-9710 - PTOPOUI 0PSCr11)1 IOA ·..vomm·,& !llt'tt~ • M Cupll'l('ll of forty t401 pPOpif' 5. The proposal is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan on page 13-57 "N-ID-20 Design single-family dwellings and significant expansions to single-family dwellings to have living space as the dominant feature of the street elevation." as the proposal looks to make the Page 7 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- single-family residence act as a continuously changing multifamily residence. This homeless shelter in a single-family neighborhood is inconsistent with this character of space. 6. Finally, the proposal is inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan page 13-57 offers a safe, quiet and peaceful place for residents to live and spend time in their neighborhood." as the Applicant stated that they cannot be responsible for activities outside their property even if individuals are associated with residents of the shelter (such as spouses or significant others) and homeless people have a greater likelihood of substance abuse, alcoholism, and violence. The Applicant has also stated that they will not do background checks on the children who can be up to 17 years of age (and even into 18 years of age under specific circumstances). This has caused great concern by many current neighborhood residents who see this proposal as a security risk to their families. The next section is the previous material my wife and I submitted and is included for continuity. Aug 16,2017 City of Redmond - Development Services Center 15670 NE 85th St, Redmond, W A 98052 Ref: LAND-2016-01036- Neighborhood Feedback We have been homeowners on NE 22"d Ct, Redmond for the past I 0+ years, and we have been in the Redmond/Bellevue area for the past 19 years. Our twin sons are 7 years old. We are active in community events and in our Church. We love being here in Redmond and always look for ways to continually improve our community and support our neighbors. This letter contains our feedback on the Proposed "LAND-2016-01036". This proposed center has been in discussion for the past couple of years but has failed to address the concerns of the neighborhood and homeowners in the immediate vicinity. The information provided by the applicants about developments for the center has been spotty and communication with the neighborhood has been limited at best. After submitting our initial feedback in July, the applicant re-submitted the application which had several changes including: modifying the number of individuals in the single-family home from 25 to 40 and a request change to "Conditional Use- Change of Use." This feedback letter is amended to address the new request. The shelter at this location is not appropriate and should be denied for the following reasons: Page 8 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- 1. The Applicable Individual Zone Summarv in the Redmond Zoning Code Prohibits the Proposed Use. The Zoning Code expressly prohibits land uses not listed in the category of authorized uses under its individual zone use charts: "Permitted Uses in Zone Use Charts. Each zone use chart in RZC 21.08.020 through RZC 21.08.140 lists categories of land uses that may be permitted and any kind of conditional review process which may be required. Land uses not listed are prohibited unless otherwise provided bv this chapter or some other orovision of the Zoning: Code." RZC 21.08.160.A (underlining added). Because the subject property is zoned R-3, the individual zone summary set forth in RZC 21.08.050 applies. Under the heading of "R-3 Single-Family Constrained Residential," that Code section provides this "zone provides for low-density residential at a base density of three dwellings per acre on lands inappropriate for more intense urban development due to significant environmentally critical areas, extreme cost, or difficulty in extending public facilities or the presence of natural features Redmond is seeking to retain." RZC 21.08.050.A. The uses allowed in R-3 zoned property are set forth in RZC 21.08.050.D. Because the category of"social assistance, welfare and charitable services" is not listed anywhere under section D, the Redmond Zoning Code prohibits the use of the subject property as a homeless shelter. 2. The Proposed Use is Not as a Religious Institution. While the principal of the applicant may be a religious institution, he does not propose to use the subject property as a religious institution. Pursuant to the Code, such uses consist of "[c]hurches, temples, synagogues, monasteries, and similar institutions operated by religious organizations." RZC 21. 78.R Definitions. Rather, the applicant seeks to use the property as a 40-person homeless shelter. Such use falls in the category of social assistance, welfare and charitable services. The Code definition of this category is the following: "Social Assistance, Welfare and Charitable Services. The provision of social assistance services, including shelters, directly to individuals in need." RZC 21.78.S Definitions. The proposed homeless shelter, therefore, does not qualify as use as a religious institution. That use is not what applicant has proposed. 3. The Comprehensive Allowed Uses Chart in the Redmond Zoning Code Prohibits the Proposed Use. The Zoning Code, in its Comprehensive Allowed Uses Chart, does not authorize the use of the subject property as a shelter. "This chart is meant to serve as a compilation of permitted uses within each ofthe individual zone summaries " RZC 21.04.030.A. Page 9 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- The Comprehensive Allowed Uses Chart for residential zones is specifically set forth in RZC 21.04.030.B. Permitted uses for R-3 zoned properties are designated in the column under R3 with a whereas conditional uses are designated there with a A category for uses involving social assistance, welfare and charitable services exists in the Comprehensive Allowed Uses Chart under the subheading of "Education, Public Administration, Health Care and other Institutions." But the corresponding R3 column is blank, i.e., it contains neither a nor a Because shelters fall within this category but the column is blank, this Chart obviously prohibits the use proposed. Note that, attesting to the extreme nature of the permit sought via the application, shelters are not authorized in any properties in Redmond that are zoned residential. Looking across horizontally on the Comprehensive Allowed Uses Chart after the subcategory for social assistance, welfare and charitable services, all of the columns are blank. Shelters for humans, therefore, are not authorized in any residential zones in Redmond. This applies to uses that are both less intense and more intense than R-3 permits. Allowing a shelter in the R-3 zone here would clearly be a direct violation of the City's Zoning Code. 4. The Proposed Use Contravenes the Verv Purpose of Establishing Zones. The proposal seeks authorization of a use that circumvents the very purposes of the Zoning Code. RZC 21.04.010 provides as follows: The purpose of establishing zones is to: a. Provide a pattern of land use that is consistent with and fulfills the vision of Redmond's Comprehensive Plan; b. Maintain stability of land uses and protect the character of the community by encouraging groupings of uses that have compatible characteristics; c. Provide for appropriate, economic, and efficient use of land within the city limits; and d. Provide for coordinates growth and ensure that adequate public facilities and services exist or can be provided in order to accommodate growth. The use of the subject property for a homeless shelter is inconsistent with and contravenes the vision of Redmond's Comprehensive Plan. The Comp Plan designates the subject property as Single-Family Constrained, not the dense population that the proposal describes. The proposal contravenes the LU-33 Designation Policies thereof. A homeless shelter, moreover, will destabilize the land uses and endanger the character of the community because its characteristics are incompatible with the general area consisting of residential Single-Family homes. At the Neighborhood Meeting in May 2017 at City Hall, I asked the applicant directly if they had considered *any* alternative sites or options instead of using this site for a 40 person, Multi-Family shelter forcing a request for zoning changes. Indeed, several options had been suggested to the applicant at the local neighborhood meeting held the previous year. Unfortunately, he said "No. No alternatives were considered." This undermines Redmond's Comprehensive Plan vision and Zoning Code in that the applicant has neither investigated nor considered any other options other than forcing a zoning exception for the project. For the number Page 10 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- of years this shelter has been under consideration, the applicant has failed due diligence and good faith attempts to be in line with Redmond's Zoning Codes. 5. The Proposed Use is Not for a Single-Familv. The property is appropriately zoned Single-Family, not Multi-Family. The Code defines "family" as "[a]n individual or two or more persons related by blood or marriage; eight or fewer nonrelated persons living together in a single dwelling unit, unless a grant of reasonable accommodation as identified in RZC 21.76, Review Procedures, allows an additional number of persons." RZC 21.78 .F Definitions. An occupancy of 40 individuals far exceeds the eight-person limit that applies to Single- Family residences. And the Review Procedures do not allow such a high occupancy in the Single- Family Constrained Residential zone. 6. The Proposed Use Does Not Meet the Requirements for a Conditional Use Permit. Specifically, it fails to meet the requirements detailed in Redmond's zoning code, RZC 21. 76.070K4: K4.B The conditional use is designed in a manner which is compatible with and responds to the existing or intended character, appearance, quality of development, and physical characteristics of the subject property and immediate vicinity; K4.D The type of use, hours of operation, and appropriateness of the use in relation to adjacent uses minimize unusual hazards or characteristics of the use that would have adverse impacts; There are two main reasons for the failure to meet these requirements: First, as detailed above, this area in Redmond is zoned as Single-Family residences and the subject property is zoned R-3. There are a number of important quality of life and community environments fostered by setting aside such an area. The applicant intends this center to be a 40- person, Multi-Family residence. The length-of-stay is intended to be short-term, so a continual turnover of resident is expected. This is contrary to the goals of Single-Family residential neighborhoods and fails to meet and be compatible with the existing and intended character and quality of development of the immediate vicinity. The center will have clients with no long-term ties to the community. Indeed, the applicant states that its clients may come from areas outside this immediate vicinity. There will be multiple families in a single residence. Clearly, this proposal does not meet the K4.B compatibility restriction of Redmond's Zoning Code. Secondly, security around the immediate vicinity is questionable, and neighborhood security is not promoted by this application. The center's intended population is stated to have various unfortunate, negative associated issues including domestic violence, substance abuse and/or mental illness (by the applicants own admission). There are large green belt areas, grade schools, and parks around the proposed center location that can have both center's clients as well Page 11 oflS ---PAGE BREAK--- as associates of the clients deciding to have unsupervised (from the center's intentions to screen and monitor clients) activities. The applicant states that they will screen and monitor clients, but this does not address off-center property and associates from off-center associates who may seek shelter and/or interaction with their children, wives, or friends within the center. The center fails to meet the K4.D zone regulation. It brings risks and adverse impacts to the neighborhood. With the recent refiling ofthe application, we submit these additional comments to respond to the applicant's application recently modified to "Conditional Use- Change of Use." 7. The Hearing Examiner Does Not Have Jurisdiction to Modify the 1968 CUP. Sherwood Forest Baptist Church filed Conditional Use Petition No. 10 on October 22, 1968. See Redmond Resolution No. 207. In it, that church requested permission to use a single 3.41-acre parcel "for a church complex." The City of Redmond subsequently issued the Conditional Use Permit ("the CUP"). In Section 3 of Resolution 207, the Council provided that it "may revoke or modify the conditional use herein granted " The City did not subsequently delegate its authority to modify the CUP to the Hearing Examiner. The Hearing Examiner, therefore, does not have jurisdiction to consider the applicant's modified request to modify the 1968 CUP. 8. The Applicant Cannot Relv On and Use the 1968 CUP Because It Terminated bv Abandonment. The CUP expired long ago. Section 41.3.1 of City Ordinance 310, passed in 1963, provided as follows: Abandonment of Use. When a conditional use of property is abandoned for a continuous period of one year, all permits or rights granted on the basis of such conditional use permission shall be void. The owners ofthe 0.50-acre subject property located at 2321 173rd Avenue NE (Tax Parcel [PHONE REDACTED]) abandoned the conditional use permit long ago. This property has never been used as a church complex. Section 2.2 of Resolution 207 referred to the house on the subject property already in 1968. That house has been used solely as a residence since that time. The evidence that the subject property was never used for a church complex is overwhelming. Since its construction in 1941, the structure thereon has always been used as a single-family residence. A letter from then applicant Redmond Christian School dated June 26, 1985 described the usage at that time as follows: "2321 173rd N.E. is used as a single family dwelling." Page 12 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- The City issued a Building Permit on April 29, 1976 for the construction of a garage at 2321 173rd Avenue NE. A City Technical Committee Report dated July 17, 1985 identified the structure on the 2321 property as a "single-family residence" and made absolutely no mention of an existing CUP. With respect to an application from Redmond Christian School for a Special Development Permit ("the First SDP"), the City Hearing Examiner in a Memorandum dated August 7, 1985 indicated (on page 3, point 4) that the applicant also sought "to use a single-family residence, located on the property, as an additional classroom or office space." He indicated (on page 10) that the request was to locate a school on both 2315 and 2321 173rd A venue NE. More recently, the City's Building Permit issued April2, 2007 for 2321 173rd Avenue NE described the work and use authorized as follows: ADDITION OF A 1,507 SF HEATED SPACE FOR RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES ONLY. NO EVANGELICAL CHINESE CHURCH ACTIVITIES WILL BE CONDUCTED IN RESIDENCE. RESIDENCE TO PROVIDE HOUSING FOR PASTOR AND OCCASIONAL GUEST. (Emphasis added.) This mirrored the limiting language contained in the applicant's Residential Permit Application dated January 11, 2007. Because the subject property was never used for a church complex, the owners thereof abandoned the CUP when they segregated it from the 2.91-acre property located at 2315 173rd Avenue NE (Tax Parcel252505-9040). At the very latest, this segregation occurred by 1985 when the City Technical Committee Report dated July 17, 1985 indicated that the parcel size was "2.91 and .50= 3.41 acres" and had the addresses of"2315 and 2321 173rd Avenue NE." Attached to that Report, moreover, were separate legal descriptions for 2315 173rd A venue NE and 2321 173rd AvenueNE. The applicant's reliance upon the CUP, therefore, is misplaced. He is not entitled to bootstrap in a CUP that expired long ago as to the subject property. 9. The Applicant Cannot Relv On and Use the 1968 CUP Because It Onlv Authorized the Operation of a Church. When Sherwood Forest Baptist Church filed its Conditional Use Petition No. 10 on October 22, 1968, it never requested that the 3 .41-acre parcel be used as a homeless shelter. The use requested was "CHURCH BUILDING." It requested therein permission to maintain a "[c]hurch facility to house the Sherwood Forest Baptist Church of Redmond, Washington." The City issued a Notice of Public Hearing dated November 6, 1968 on Conditional Use Petition No. 10. It notified the public that that applicant's request was "[p]ermission to construct a church building." The CUP only authorized the use ofthe property "for a church complex.". A letter dated November 25, 1968 to Sherwood Forest Baptist Church enclosing a copy of Resolution 207 stated that the CUP was "for a church building complex." Page 13 of 15 ---PAGE BREAK--- 10. The Applicant Cannot Relv On and Use the 1968 CUP Because the 1985 SPD Superseded It. The City issued the First SDP for the subject property via a Final Approval Order that Mayor Doreen Marchione signed on September 3, 1985. The City issued a second SDP for the subject property via a Final Approval Order that Mayor Doreen Marchione signed on April 15, 1986. Because a property cannot simultaneously have a CUP and an SDP, the SDPs superseded the CUP even if it had remained in existence at that time. The applicant's reliance on the superseded CUP, therefore, is misplaced. 11. The Applicant Cannot Relv On and Use the 1968 CUP Because the Subject Property Has Never Before Been Used as a Homeless Shelter. The July 17, 1985 Technical Committee Report indicates that the 2321 property was never before intended to be used as a homeless shelter. Under "BACKGROUND" on page 1 thereof, it stated the following (emphasis added): "[T]he applicant is requesting approval to use a single-familv residence which it owns next door to the school for additional classroom or office space, if needed in the future. When it was discovered that part of the driveway for the abutting single-family house to the north was actually on the school's property, the school decided to buy the property for its own use. There are no plans to change the structure, only to change its use. It will continue to be used as a residence but they would like to have the option to use it for offices or classrooms." The description under "INTRODUCTION" on page 2 thereof was consistent therewith. 12. The Applicant Cannot Relv On and Use the 1968 CUP Because the 3.41-Acre Tract Was Subseguentlv Divided Into Two Parcels and the CUP Remained, If At All. with the 2.91- Acre Church Parcel. Not the Se2re2ated 0.50-Acre House Parcel. The 2321 property has always been used as a single-family residence. It has never legally been used for any other purpose, whether as a homeless shelter, church or otherwise. The 1968 CUP only authorized a church to be maintained on the then 3.41-acre parcel. Because the church building was and remains located and operated on what was subsequently segregated into the southern 2.91-acre parcel and the house was and remains located and used for residential purposes on what was subsequently segregated into the northern 0.50-acre parcel, any CUP which remains after all these years went with the southern parcel, not the subject 2321 property. We acknowledge the intentions of the applicants but the location currently under review is not appropriate by being a direct violation of the Redmond Zoning Code and fails to meet the requirements specified in the Redmond Zoning Code. We urge the City of Redmond Technical Committee and Examiner to reject the proposal and encourage the applicant to site an area that will meet the goals of their effort while aligning with local zoning codes.

The proposal complies with all of the site requirements for the R-3 (Single-Family Constrained Residential) Zone. IV. Public Notice and Comments Requirements for public notice are contained in RZC 21.76.080. Notice of Application: The Notice of Application for this proposal was published on June 23, 2017 and Re-Issued with an updated project description on July 28, 2017. The notice was posted at City Hall, the Redmond Regional Library, and two notice signs were posted on the property. Notice was also mailed to property owners within 500 feet of the site (Attachment 1, Notice of Application Certificate of Public Notice and Public Notice). Public Input: The Notice of Application was posted and mailed out on July 28, 2017. To date, 31 comment letters have been received. All comments received will be submitted during the Hearing on November 6, 2017. (Attachment 2, Notice of Application Public Comment Letters). Below is a summary of topics expressed by submitted from the public: • Safety for residents and property • Traftic impacts • Shelter not believed to be a permitted use within R-3 • The Conditional Use and Special Development Permits approvals for the site are no longer valid or relevant to the proposed project site • Concerns of loitering • Impacts to property values • Inappropriate location due to lack of adjacent services • Project will encourage homeless to come to Redmond • There is not a justified need for a shelter • Statements of support for the project Written responses were provided via e-mail and posted on the City of Redmond website for all questions submitted (Attachment 3, Responses to Public Comment Letters and E-mails and Attachment 4, Follow-up Questions and Responses to Public Comments). Neighborhood Meeting: Two Neighborhood Meetings were held at City Hall for the proposed project. The first meeting was hosted by the Applicant team on May 1. 2017. The second meeting was hosted by the City on August 24, 2017. 4 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III- Technical Committee Report Page 5 of20 At the August 24, 2017 meeting staff passed out comment cards for those in attendance to write their questions or comments on. All cards were collected and responded to during the meeting. Additionally, staff provided written responses to the questions via e-mail and posted them on the City of Redmond website (Attachment 5, Neighborhood Meeting Comment Cards and Attachment 6, Responses to Neighborhood Meeting Comment Cards). Notice of Public Hearing: The Notice of Public Hearing for this project, scheduled for February 5, 2018 was posted on the site, at City Hall, and at the Redmond Regional Library on February 5, 2018. The notice was also mailed to property owners within 500 feet of the site and to individuals who provided written correspondence to the City on the same date. The notice was also included in a one-time newspaper publication (Attachment 7, Notice of Public Hearing and Certificates ofPosting). V. State Environmental Policy Act The State Environmental Policy Act (SEP A) requires applicants to disclose if any potential impacts to the environment may occur as a result of their project. RZC 21.70.010. C Adopts WAC Chapter 197-11, SEPA Rules. Per WAC 197-11-800(6) the project is categorically exempt from SEP A and therefore, an issuance of a SEPA determination is not required for the project. VI. Compliance with Development Regulations A. Landscaping The Redmond Zoning Code (RZC 21.08.180) requires that for new subdivisions, short subdivisions, and other residential developments, landscaping shall be provided along the perimeter of the site that incorporates native vegetation and softens the transition between new and existing dwelling units when the new dwellings are directly adjacent to lots with existing dwellings or the dwellings can be viewed from public streets or park areas. Finding: The proposal does not trigger perimeter landscaping; however, the project does propose a new six foot residential perimeter fence. Therefore, the project provides adequate landscaping as required by RZC 21.08.180. B. Tree Protection The Redmond Zoning Code (RZC 21. 72) requires that all healthy landmark trees and 35 percent of all healthy significant trees be saved. Landmark trees are those trees that are greater than 30-inches in diameter at breast height. Significant trees are those trees that are between six-inches and 30-inches in diameter at breast height. 5 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III- Technical Committee Report Page 6 of20 Finding: The applicant is proposing retention of I 00 percent of the existing significant trees which exceeds the minimum required 35 percent tree retention. The proposal includes the retention of all on-site trees. C. Critical Areas Section 21.64 of the Redmond Zoning Code contains standards, guidelines, criteria, and requirements intended to identify, analyze, preserve and mitigate potential impacts to the City's critical areas and to enhance and restore degraded resources such as wetlands, riparian stream corridors or habitat, where possible. Finding: The site is outside of wetlands, aquatic systems and high quality wildlife habitat. Therefore, the shelter will not negatively impact any critical areas. Additionally, the proposed shelter is located in Wellhead zone four Overall, the project poses very little risk related to wellhead protection. D. Open Space The Redmond Zoning Code (RZC 21.08.050) requires a minimum of 20 percent of the total Jot area to be open space. Finding: The applicant is not altering any portion of the building footprint or upgrades that would modify or reduce current available open space on the property. The proposal leaves 84.5 percent of the 11,500 square foot lot area as open space. Therefore, the applicant complies with minimum Code requirements by providing more than four times the minimum required 20 percent open space. E. Transportation This project does not trigger frontage improvements requirement per RZC 21.17.0 I O.F.d. Based on the trip generation report, this project vvill generate a total of 4 trips during the peak PM hours. The result is insignificant to the transp011ation system and no further traffic impact analysis is required. This project will provide three feet of right-of-way dedication and nine feet of public utility easement to satisfy the roadway standards for any future improvements on NE 24111 ST. No right-of-way dedication and additional easement are required on 173rd Ave NE. F. Conditional Use Permit, Type III Each proposed Conditional Use Pennit shall be reviewed to insure that (RZC 21 . 76.070(K)(Y): 6 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type 1II -Technical Committee Report Page 7 of20 a. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to establish the criteria that the City will use in making a decision upon an application for a Conditional Use Permit. A conditional use is a use which may be appropriate on a specific parcel of land within a given zoning district under certain conditions, but which is not appropriate on all parcels within the same zoning district. A Conditional Use Permit allows the City to consider the appropriateness of the use on a specific parcel in terms of compatibility with other uses in the same zone and vicinity and to impose conditions to ensure such compatibility. b. Decision Criteria. The City may approve or approve with modifications the conditional use only if the applicant demonstrates that: 1. The conditional use is consistent with the RZC and Comprehensive Plan. Response: LU-29 Designate allowed residential densities and housing types to provide for a housing stock that includes a range of choices to meet all economic segments and household types, including those with special needs related to age, health or disability. 7 The BelRed Family Resource Center will provide day services and short-term shelter for women with children experiencing homelessness and economic insecurity. Due to the increase cost of housing, especially in Redmond and the surrounding communities, families experiencing economic hardship resulting in homelessness need supportive shelter services as a first step toward regaining stable housing and employment. This project provides additional shelter beds in Redmond, wrap around services, and support needed for families to find pennanent housing in the community or the surrounding communities. Unlike some family shelters, that operate during the winter months or move locations throughout the year, Be!Red Family Resource Center will remain in a permanent location throughout year. BelRed Family Resource Center will be operated by Seattle· s Union Gospel Mission with trained staff to address the needs of each family served, including those with special needs related to age, health and disability. ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Usc Permit, Type III -Technical Committee Rcp01t Page 8 of20 H0-5 Cooperate with private and nonprofit developers, including the King County Housing Authority and social and health service agencies, to address local housing needs. H0-11 Encourage the development of a variety of housing types, sizes and densities throughout the city to accommodate the diverse needs of Redmond residents through changes in age, family size and various life changes, including: •Development that provides smaller units with a mix of attached and detached housing units •Homes with ground floor master suites, and 8 The BelRed Family Resource Center project is in cooperation w·ith three religious facilities/ churches; the Evangelical Chinese Church, Westminster Chapel and Creekside Covenant Church. These three churches have designated Seattle's Union Gospel Mission as the organization to run the day-to-day operations of the BelRed Family Resource Center. This project is privately funded by Seattle's Union Gospel Mission, in partnership with the three churches. Be!Red Family Resource Center will work closely with the local schools, service providers, and the social service departments for the City of Redmond, other Eastside Service providers and cities and King County. The BelRed Family Resource Center will also receive referrals from Crisis Clinic (211 which is King County's phone-based (risis intencntion and iufonnation and referral services. Shelter guests will also complete the Coordinated Entry for All assessments offered through King County as a step toward permanent housing. Priority for shelter will be given to Redmond residents, followed by residents from other Eastside communities. In 2016, the 211 Crisis Clinic hot line received calls from 130 Redmond families seeking shelter and a total of 4 74 calls from Eastside residents including Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond seeking emergency shelter. This project would provide the City ofRedmond with a year-round, 24-hour shelter that would serve women with children who are currently unable to obtain permanent housing. It would allow existing Redmond families currently dwelling in cars or the homes of acquaintances to remain in the community in which they are already living, working and attending school. It vmuld provide a safe temporary shelter for these women and children and case management to help families navigate the housing process. ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III -Technical Committee Report Page 9 of20 •Homes with all living areas on one floor HS-1 Support the provision of a continuum of human services, from preventive to remedial, focused on ensuring that residents are able to be self-sufficient, contributing members of the community. 9 Family shelters operate differently from the traditional idea or image of emergency shelters. BelRed Family Resource Center, aligned with best practices for family shelter operations, will allow families to maintain their bed space from each night for up to 90 days, providing stability and safety for women and their children. Families will be screened over the phone before coming on-site, so there \Vill be no waiting line outside of the shelter. Women and children coming to the BelRed Family Resource Center will have a safe place to stay overnight and access a variety of day time services including meals, showers. laundry, case management; housing assistance, employmem searches, children's activities; and life skill classes. The staff will work alongside the guests to identify barriers, set goals and contact clients into a more stable housing situation. The school age children will continue to attend school and have access to tutoring. assistance with homework and other services to promote school engagement to aid the long-term success of the student. Domestic violence is often a factor when serving women and children experiencing homelessness. Because the proposed site would not be a confidential location, BelRed Family Resource Center will not be a "safe house'' and will not operate in a capacity to serve women who are being actively pursued by an abuser, as that situation is unsafe for the women, their children and the community. Women actively fleeing domestic violence situations \:vill be referred to domestic violence shelters and programs elsewhere. Women who have experienced domestic violence in the past will be considered for admittance at the BclRed Family Resource Center. Seattle's ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III- Technical Committee Report Page 10 of20 Union Gospel Mission ("SUGM") staff will evaluate each situation on a case-by-case basis and will only admit women and children that do not appear to create a risk to the shelter or community. The SUGM staff are professionally trained in this area and will be constantly monitoring each and every situation. This includes, but is not limited to the Community Agreement the women must sign, extensive screening procedures and surveillance cameras. SUGM was selected to run this shelter as they are trained professionals when it comes to caring for the people experiencing homelessness and also have experience at other facilities in King County at creating a safe environment for the women, their children and the community at large. The location most similar to the BelRed Family Resource Center is the Emergency Family Shelter, a short term overnight family shelter in Seattle, which serves women with children. See Attachment 8, Additional Operation Information and Details. FW-46 Improve the welfare and This project will directly improve the welfare and independence of Redmond residents independence of Redmond residents, in that it by supporting the availability of will provide shelter to women and children who human senrices to all in the are experiencing homelessness in Redmond. It community. would allow existing Redmond families cunently dwelling in cars or the homes of acquaintances to remain in the community in which they are already living, working and attending school. 10 During the 2016-2017 school year, Lake Washington School District served 385 students who met the criteria for homelessness. In 2016, the 211 Crisis Clinic hotline received 474 calls from Eastside (Redmond, Bellevue, and Kirkland) families seeking shelter. Additionally, 130 calls were from Redmond families in need of emergency shelter. First priority would be to provide shelter to residents of Redmond. BelRed Family Resource Center, Seattle's Union ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type fTI- Technical Committee Report Page 11 of20 Gospel Mission, and the partner churches will work alongside other Redmond service providers to meet the needs of families in Redmond. The facility staff will work closely with Lake Washington School District McKinney Vento Liaisons, teachers and administrators to support students and families. Women experiencing homelessness with children in their care frequently chose to sleep in cars, pay for nights in motels when their funds allow or shelter night to night in the homes of friends or acquaintances to avoid being on the streets with their children. As a family shelter, BeiRed Family Resource Center proposal for the facility is to offer such families stability as they search for transitional or permanent housing. Episodes of homelessness can be traumatic events for the entire family, but especially for children. The trained staff at the proposed BelRed Family Resource Center would provide case management to guests, including guidance through Coordinated Entry for All, a King County program to assess housing needs and prioritize vulnerable populations for housing; applying for other housing resources; and looking for employment. Families would have a stable place to sleep each night allowing them the opportunity to focus on housing applications, job searching and addressing other barriers to housing that they may be facin r. 2. The conditional use is designed in a manner which is compatible with and responds to the existing or intended character, appearance, quality of development, and physical characteristics of the subject property and immediate vicinity. Response: The proposal conforms to the site requirements set forth in RZC 21.08.050 R-3 Zone. BelRed Family Resource Center will continue to maintain the appearance of a single-family residence. There will be no exterior work done to the existing structure itself; therefore, the intended character, appearance, quality of development and physical characteristics of the property will not be affected (1\ttachment 9, Pictures of CutTent Structure). 1 1 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III- Technical Committee Repon Page 12 of20 3. The location, size, and height ofbuildings, structures, walls and fences, and screening vegetation for the conditional use shall not hinder neighborhood circulation or discourage the permitted development or use of neighboring properties. Response: BelRed Family Resource Center confonns to the applicable R-3 (Single-Family Constrained Residential) Zone including regulations and procedures [RZC 21.08.050]. BelRed Family Resource Center complies since there will be no exterior work done to the existing structure itself. The existing single-family house will continue to appear as a single-family home as to blend into the neighborhood. A six foot residential perimeter is proposed to be installed to provide screening and privacy. 4. The type of use, hours of operation, and appropriateness of the use in relation to adjacent uses minimize unusual hazards or characteristics of the use that would have adverse impacts; Response: BelRed Family Resource Center will provide shelter for women with children experiencing homclessness. Women and children coming to BelRed Family Resource Center will have a safe place to stay overnight and access to a variety of day time services including meals, showers, laundry, case management, assistance to obtain housing, employment searches. children's activities, homework support and life skills classes. The staff will work alongside guests to identify and overcome harriers, set goals, and move forward into more stable housing. BelRed Family Resource Center will serve children, male or female, hom infants to 17 years old. If a child turns 18 and is still enrolled in high school, male or female, they will be allowed to stay \vith their mothers in shelter until they graduate. All school age children will be required to attend school. Women and children seeking shelter will be accommodated regardless of family size. provided we have space available and do not exceed the maximum occupancy of 40 individuals. The \Yill be operated with two staff on site twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven days a week. Overnight staff will remain awake and alert at all times. To meet the needs of the guests, staff will cover three shifts with at least two staff per shift. seven days a week. The first shift will be from 7 am to 3:30 pm. The second shift is from 3 pm to 11:30 pm and the third shift will be from llpm to 7:30am. There will be a 9 pm curfew for all guests who stay at the Family shelters operate differently from the traditional idea or image of emergency shelters. BelRed Family Resource Center, aligned with best practices for family shelter operations, will allow families to maintain their bed space from night to night for up to 30-60 days, with the option to extend to 90 days for families who are diligently working toward housing and employment goals. This proYides the needed stability and safety for ·women and their children. Families 12 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women 's Shelter ILAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type III -Technical Committee Report Page 13 of20 will be screened over the phone before coming on-site, so there will be no waiting line outside of the shelter. Volunteers will be utilized during daytime hours (6:30am-8:00pm) to assist in meal preparation, help with homework, provide children's activities, and other tasks that aid the day-to-day operations. All volunteers must pass a background check and sign up through Seattle's Union Gospel Mission online platform prior to coming to BelRed Family Resource Center. Volunteers will need to exit the property by 8:00pm each evening. Visiting professional services such as tutoring, visits from case workers, social \Vorkers, health care professionals and other service providers will take place during two time frames. Daytime visits will take place when school children are gone. Evening visits would be scheduled after di1mer when entire families are available, including older children. Professionals such as family counselors, public health professionals will not generate any trips during the peak commute periods. Between shelter residents. stafT, volunteers, and professional services, the maximum occupancy (40 persons) will be strictly adhered to at all times. 5. The Conditional Use is such that pedestrian and vehicular traffic associated with the use vv·ill not be hazardous or conf1ict with existing and anticipated traffic in the neighborhood. Response: BelRed Family Resource Center will operate with a minimum of two staff on at all times. The existing single-family home included six bedrooms, and was assumed to house a total of three vehicles. The shelter will maintain a maximum capacity of up to 40 people at all times. School age students will be required to attend school, being picked up by school bus or other school provided transportation on weekdays between 7am-8am and retuming in the afternoon between 3pm-4pm. Guests at BelRed Family Resource Center will be able to stay at the house during the daytime and access day services. Some guests may have work or other outside appointments or errands the same as any other neighborhood resident. Some guests \Vill have their own vehicle, but many will also rely on public transportation. BelRed Family Resource Center has a parking agreement with Creekside Covenant Church to use up to 20 parking spaces in their parking lot for the use of the BelRcd Family Resource Center's shelter guests, stan: volunteers and visiting professionals. The parking lot \\'ill be monitored by the BelRed Family Resource Center staff and video surveillance. Seattle's Union Gospel Mission operates other sites in King County and on average at KentHOPE Resource Center \Vill have 7-8 guests with personal \'ehicles out of 35 guests/day and the Emergency Family Shelter in Seanle, there were 3-5 guests with personal vehicles out of 48 guests (approximately 15-18 13 ---PAGE BREAK--- ECC Women's Shelter /LAND-2016-01036 Conditional Use Permit, Type lii -Technical Committee Report Page 14of20 adult women plus their children). Based on this data, we expect to have approximately 5 guests with personal vehicles and no more than 10 at any one time. Public transportation is located on the corner of 173rd Ave NE and NE 24111 on the 249, 888, 895 bus lines. 226 bus line is accessible with a half mile of the BelRed Family Resource Center. The existing single-family home is assumed to have three trips during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, and Be!Red Family Resource Center is assumed to have six trips during the AM peak hours (7:00-9:00 AM) and 4 trips estimated during the PM peak hours (4:00-6:00 PM). In conclusion, the impact of Be!Red Family Resource Center will be insignificant during the day and particularly during the peak traffic periods. It will not affect the service levels for either NE 24111 Street or 173n1 Ave N'E (Attachment 1 0, Traffic Study). 6. The Conditional Use will be supported by adequate public facilities or services, and will not adversely affect public services to the surrounding area or conditions are established to mitigate adverse impacts on such facilities. Response: Be!Red Family Resource Center is located in a developed neighborhood where there are adequate public facilities and services in a 5-mile radius of the site. The adequate facilities include, but are not limited to schools, parks, churches, shopping centers, grocery store, and bus stops. BelRed Family Resource Center will comply with the City of Redmond's requirements to upgrade the water/sewer line from the house to the street. The requirements from the City of Redmond are based on the assumption that the burden created by the BelRed Family Resource Center will be greater than a single-family home. The required changes that City of Redmond has required mitigate any adverse impacts to the neighborhood. VII. Code Deviations Granted a. Additional parking required may be met off -site on parcel [PHONE REDACTED] through a cooperative parking agreement. Approved by Technical Committee AprilS, 2017(RZC21.40.010.D). VIII.

Issaquah, WA 98027 Owner of Property: Same as applicant Application Date: April 12, 1985 Hearing Date: July 17, 1985 Request: Phase 1 - Construction of a classroom annex with a covered play area, upgrading of the parking lo~ additional landscaping _ and screening a 1 ong the street front, --and expanded playground area west of the bu~J ding - ' Phase II - Expansion of the classroom annex and playfields. After Phase I, the schoo 1 wi 11 be ab 1 e to accorrrnodate up to 150 students and 225 students after Phase li. In addition, the applicant is requesting approval to use a single-family residence which it owns next door to the school for additional classroom or office space, if needed in the future. When it was discovererd that part of the driveway for the abutting single-family house to the north was actually on the school•s property, the school decided to buy the property for its own use. There are no plans tt:? change the structure, only to change its use. It will continue to be used as a residence but they would like to have the option to use it for offices or classrooms.

Policy Act {SEPA ) On April 24. 1985, a proposed declaration of non-significance was issued by the Technical Committee. A final declaration of non-significance was issued on May 9, 1985. Policies/Goals: 208.7u.060 Community Goal -Ensure opportunities for a quality education · for the community's cit1zens through cooperation with the school districts. 70.060{10) Policy -Work toward placement of educational facilities in urban and suburban locations that require minimal extensions of municipal services. 70.060{15) Policy - Encourage the continued use of the neighborhood school concept as a focal pooint for educational and community facilities. Public Input: At the time this report was written, the Planning Department had received verbal and written comments from one neighbor to the west. He is opposed to the expansion because of noise from the playground, especially when the school is expanded. If appr·oved he would 1 ike a concrete wall as a buffer to reduce playground noise. See Exhibit E. list of Exhibits: A letter from Redmond Christian School B Site Plan c legal description D Existing zoning E Letter from neighbor ANALYSIS The application is for expansion of the existing church and classroom building by adding a new building with classrooms and a covered play area in Phase I and additional classrooms and playground areas in Phase II. The expansion 1s for the school facilities only, not the church. The following is an analysis of this application based, upon the General Review Criteria and Building : Design Crit_eria for Special Developments outlined in the Cormmnity Developmen/ _ Guide Section 20C.20.235. 20.235(10) General Reivew Criteria A. Compatibility with Surroundng Land Use The site has room for expansion while maintaining most of the existing natural buffer. The surrounding area is fully developed with single family residences and is not likely to change. Schools are considered most people to be very compatible with and desirable in single-family . neighborhoods. While there is some noise and traffic associated with them, the benefits of having a school in the neighborhood generally ---PAGE BREAK--- I outweigh the' tpacts. In this case the traft ' increase will be minimal and l73rd Ave. N.E. has more than enough capacity to ·accommodate it. The playground noise occurs for only a few hours out of each day and at a time when most people are not ~t home. Some people find playground noise objectionable. Most people do not, however» and feel that the sound of children at play adds life and interest to a neighborhood. Although the present school use could continue without approval of this application, it . can not expand without a Sepcial Development permit. The site is well buffered to the west and south by existing natural vegetation and to the north by the existing single-family residence. Site development should maintain as much of this natural buffer as possible. Additional landscaping will be .installed along the east side of the existing building and parking lot, and along the north and east sides of the new building in order to soften and screen these facilities from 173rd Avenue N.E. and the residences across the street. B. Conformance with .Purposes and Standards of Section 20C.20.235 Upon fulfillment of the recommended conditions of appoval, the application will conform with the purposes and standards of the Special Development regulations. C. Conformance with Goals, Policies and Plans The application conforms with the Goals, Policies and Plans of the Community Development Guide. Please see the discussion under FINDINGS - Goals and Policies. D. Development seeking exceptions No exceptions to site development requirements ar~ requested. E. Conformance with Special Standards of Section 20C.l0.245 These standards do not apply to schools. 20.235(70) Building Design Criteria A. The new building will be very similar and compatible with the existing building. The existing building is larger than any buildings in the neighborhood, but the mass and scale are compatible with residential structures. These buildings are surrounded by open space so that any differences in mass and scale are not particularly noticeable. B. The brown stained vertical siding of the new and existing buildings is compatible with the color and materials of other houses in the neighborhood. C. The architectural design of the new building is fairly monotonous, but it does match the design of the existing buildings. 0. The building line along the street of the new and existing buildings is broken up and does not create a "walled corridor effect. The building meets all applicable site development requirements. _ ---PAGE BREAK--- l ' RECO!-!-\ENDATI ON Prior to hearing public testimony~ the Technical Committee and Design Review Board recorrmed SDP-85-2 Redmond Christian School expansion be approved subject to the following conditions: I.

CITY Of REDMOND S~bject: Redmond Christian School SDP-85-2 lh response to the subject request for a permit to construct a classroom addition this year and future construction of classrooms and playfields in the future, I have the follov1ing comr::Jents; 1. \ie (I.1rs • . Neher and I) Toved into this area six years ago because it was a quiet residential area l'li th several retired or near retirement families on a street that resembles a cul-de-sac. ~t the time the church behind our property was just that- a church. We chose the location because it was not next to a school. This past year's operation of-rhe school has resulted in a great deal of noise during prolonged recesses. An increase in school Bize as proposed would only serve to increase this noise factor. 2. We note that the pronerty iszoned R-3 or 3 bomea ner ~~re. This does not allow for the develon- ment w:l t-bout • .c1. r.han~a t.o the zoning; code. We question the existance of the school in its present form. Also are there property tax revenue considerations? We recommend that this change be denied. 3. It is noted on the plot plan_ that a playfield is located directly adjacent to the properties facing 172nd Ave NE. There is also a note (in small letters) on those plans indicating future classrooms on a part of this playfield area. There is nothing on the plans that indicate a buffer zone or means to shield this area from the adjacent residences. Trees or plantings won't do it! A chain link fence won't do it! Again tbe noise factor must be addressed· 4. The value of adjacent property will be decreased considerably by this addition. I mentioned to Miss Lincoln of your ofi'ice on Monday that a concrete wall such as constructed along l48th Ave in Bellevue would I ---PAGE BREAK--- . / help alleviate some of the noise problem. She said that this would be very expensive. · But it wouldn't be nearly as expensive as the loss in property value of the homes abutting or in close proximity to the church property. I will not be able to attend the meeting because of major surgery on Tues. July 16s- but I hope this lette-r has raised enough questions to result in a denial of the special permit.

I live at.17309 NE 23'd Court, Redmond 98052, across the street from Creekside Covenant Church and the proposed shelter site. Thank you for chairing this meeting. We all know Bellevue and Redmond have a homeless population that needs help, and no one wants to help fix the homeless situation in King County more than I do. Location: That need does not appear to be in this neighborhood, 500 feet inside Redmond. This proposed location is not suitable and does not provide the services these families could need without driving a car or taking the bus. School: Children will most likely not attend the neighborhood schools and will be transported to schools they attend now. That's an extra expense for the school district when they need money. Traffic: The City of Redmond knows that 173'd Ave NE is a heavily travelled road (called the Microsoft Highway). Traffic is 24 hours a day and cars do not obey the 25 MPH speed limit after turning off NE 241h. More cars and activity are not compatible to the neighborhood. Parking is allowed on 173'd Ave NE and can be dangerous. Creekside Church members use the proposed shelter house lot and 173'd Ave NE for parking even when their parking lot is not full. The proposed shelter will have limited parking and use the church parking lot for over flow. Security: The church property has a chain across the driveway to the parking lot when not occupied by church members and staff to prevent unauthorized "visitors". Now the driveway will be open more because of the proposed shelter residents and staff using the parking lot. City of Redmond: Today, the house does not have the neighborhood appearance per the City of Redmond Decision Criteria b. The little house was built in 1941 and since 2002 has incorporated a hodgepodge of revisions and additions. From experience, I have no faith in the system to follow up after permits have been granted to make sure recipients are in compliance. Property Values: Windemere, John l Scott and Keller Williams have told me "degradation of property is real" and the value of my property could go down because people do not want to live by a homeless shelter. 17309 NE 23'd Court, Redmond 98052 [PHONE REDACTED], email [EMAIL REDACTED] / ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment 1-A 1-A Please find below, a little history about me to show that I am not a new comer on dealing with helping others with all kincjs of special needs. rm a Boeing retiree, Community Volunteer and Senior Citizen Intern. No one wants to help fix the homeless situation in King County more than I do. I was born in Seattle and grew up with people who were engaged in helping others. I was an only child and at one time we had a foster child in our home. My Dad donated blood and delivered bread from his bakery job to the Seattle Union Gospel Mission and Millionaires Club. My grandfather helped people at the Pike Place Public Market where he owned a small shop. My mother was always caring for and helping others. In 1962, after a car accident on Rainier AveS. near Rainier Beach, my car was towed to the back lot of the local gas station. The neighborhood homeless person,"Sam Spade', slept in the car and local business people helped him with food, etc. In 1976-1978, I was a Trustee on the Boeing Employees Good Neighbor Fund {BEGNF), renamed Boeing Employees Community Fund. In 1985-1987, I was chair or co-chair of the Boeing Employees Food and Essentials Drive as well as participating in many other Boeing community volunteer activities. The next time I saw someone in need was 1992, on my way to the Museum of Flight, when I saw a man and woman standing on a corner at the Albro Avenue Exist Off Rramp from Interstate 5 with a sign asking for help because they are homeless. This couple would alternate holding the sign, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. People would say it was a scam and the couple used thi,s way to earn money for their livelihood. In 1995, after retirement, I was asked to join the Boeing Management Association Retiree's Board, and served in many positions. My last position, for many years, was Community Affairs Chair and lasted until! resigned in 2012. We sorted food at Food Lifeline, made wooden toys for the kids, assisted visitors with disabilities at the Boeing Tour, among other activities. In 1996, I was asked to join a group of King County area people (who were working in many different fields of employment) to start a Chapter of Christmas in April-Seattle on the Eastside. We would call ourselves Christmas in April-Eastside. (The National organization changed the name to Rebuilding Together several years later). This organization helps low income, elderly and disabled homeowners spruce up their homes once a year on Rebuilding Day in April. The first reaction we had was"where would we ever find houses, no one on the Eastside needs help'. Our geographically area was East of 1-90 to North Bend, North to Bothell, and South to Renton. We found houses for seven years before the Eastside Chapter dissolved. In 1997, I was a Senior Citizen Intern in Congresswoman Jennifer Dunn's office. rve stayed very busy since retirement supporting many non-profit organizations besides the ones mentioned above, i.e. Return to Renton Car Show, Seattle Humane, Medic One, and Bridge Disability Ministries. rm looking at this homeless situation as a person who has had a lot of exposure and experience which enables me to help judge its benefits versus its risk and negative impact on the community. ---PAGE BREAK--- Attachment to Hearing Examiner's Meeting February 6, 2018 Re:Proposed Homeless Shelter & Additional backup and personal comments are as follows: (Revised February 2, 2018) At the first Neighborhood Meeting in June 2015, the attendees were told that this was a partnership with four organizations: Evangelical Chinese Church (EEC), Creekside Covenant Church (CCC), Seattle Union Gospel Mission (SUGM), and Westminster Chapel (WC) R-1 to advise the neighborhood that they were proposing to file an application to open a overnight shelter for women and children in the little house on the corner. The tasks for each organization/partner were explained as follows: Evangelical Chinese Church (EEC)- R-1 Owner of the property@ 2321-173'ct Avenue NE, Redmond 98052. Creekside Covenant Church (CCC)- R-1 Church located next to the proposed homeless shelter and have parking space available. R-1 The BeiRed Family Resource Day Center will not be located at Creekside Church. R-1 CCC will be asked to provide volunteers, meals, clothes, diapers, etc. Eventually financial support is expected whether outright donations or fund raisers. Seattle Union Gospel Mission (SUGM)- R-1 The Mission will be the Staff to operate the proposed homeless shelter (Be IRed Family Resource R-1 Center), as well as vetting all families who would be in need. They will provide all services at the house 24 hours a day including daytime services and counseling. Westminster Chapel (WC)- R-1 WC will be asked to provide volunteers, meals, clothes, diapers, etc. Eventually financial support is expected whether outright donations or fund raisers At this meeting, to my surprise, the atmosphere in the room was hot (and I don't mean temperature). This proposed location is 500 feet inside Redmond. I know there are people who need housing in Redmond because I see them near the Library. I have not seen people sleeping in their cars, holding signs, or living in tents near this proposed area. I do see people standing on corners in Bellevue 20 blocks or more away. The location, in my opinion, is not favorable because the services these families will need are not close to the proposed location. For example, stores, medical, gas, clothing, other needs are at least 17 blocks away. The only bus (#226), which stops across the street from the proposed shelter location on NE 24th, runs every hour. We have been told that the children who live at the proposed shelter will not necessarily be attending Sherwood Elementary or Interlake High schools if they do not attend there now. They will be bused to the school they are attending now. We were told the school district will provide transportation for these children (from the tax payers). Cars will be coming and going on a busy street that has lots of traffic 24 hours a day. The speed limit is 25 MPH but not many people obey the sign. In fact, lots cars come off of NE 24th and round the corner onto 173'ct NE too fast. It's an accident waiting to happen. ---PAGE BREAK--- We have been told that the Homeless Shelter has a limited amount of parking at the "house" (no more than 10 cars) and the over flow will park in the church parking lot. They will have an agreement with the church to use their parking lot. The parking could be available to more people and cause a lot of parking in the lot and on the street each day, not just on Suinday when Creekside holds it services There is a chain across the church driveway now to prevent unauthorized people access to the church property when staff or church activities are not taking place. The chain is unlocked when church members and/or staff are on site. This could mean that the chain across the driveway will be unlocked more (even daily) and could cause concerns in regard to "unauthorixed visitors". R-1 · On May 31, 2016 the BeiRed Family Resource Day Center opened in the classroom building of Creekside Church to provide women and children resources to help them during the day, it was open from (7:30am-3:30pm). R-1 The next day, June 1st, myself and a Redmond City Council member met at the BeiRed Family Resource Day Center with a Board Member of the Evangelical Chinese Church and three representatives of the Seattle Union Gospel Mission. This meeting did not start off so well because I asked why Westminster Chapel was not in attendance (a partner) and had their location been considered for the proposed homeless shelter. They have a very large church building and huge parking area. Well, the council member slammed his hand on the table and proceeded to give me a verbal scolding. He said my "questions and comments were irrelevant and we are not here to talk about Westminster Chapel". The Evangelical Chinese Church representative agreed with him and said "we want to be good Christians and we have the building and the City of Redmond has a need". The ladies from Seattle Gospel Mission were very nice and tried to taper the emotions down. Shortly after, the council member and church board member left. I stayed and received a great briefing from the Seattle Gospel Mission staff about their services. My neighbor and his wife missed the meeting and we went back so they could met and talk with the Union Gospel Mission staff. R-1 The BeiRed Family Resource Family Day Center closed a few months later after only seeing a few families. We were told the women and children also needed overnight housing. R-1 After attending a couple neighborhood meetings at a local home, and receiving many emails, it was obvious the neighbors felt the proposed overnight homeless shelter, in our neighborhood, was not a good location but felt it was a done deal. Since I live across the street (since 1983), and have had various concerns and problems with some of the church property owners it's been stressful at times. For example, Conditional Use Permits have been granted in the past to owners of these two properties but the City does not always check up to see if the agreed upon conditions are being met. Gnawing issues have been the parking lot adjacent to the church and the concrete slab in front of the church. Paving the parking lot was a requirement many years ago and the concrete slab was not to be used as a play area. People outside the neighborhood, and not church members, would arrive late at night, park in the lot and play basketball for several hours. After concerns were made to the City, the basketball hoop (which had been placed in cement) was removed. The parking lot was never paved. Based on past experience (I can provide data), what guarantee does the neighborhood have that all conditions of the CUP requirements will be followed and monitored by the City of Redmond. R-1 I visited Westminster Chapel May 1, 2017 and took them by surprise when I asked them what they were doing in this partnership. They seemed surprised I asked the question. I told the Pastor, Mark Pedrin, we should go door to door collecting money to build a building on a corner of their large parking Jot to house ---PAGE BREAK--- the women and children. That got his attention. After reviewing the BeiRed Family Resource Center Website and information I had been given, in the past, I realized they would be asked to provide volunteers, meals, clothes, diapers, etc. Eventually financial support is expected whether outright donations or fund raisers. About 30 minutes before going to Westminster, I saw a pretty young woman standing just two blocks away from the church with a sign, back pack and bed roll. Too bad she was not standing there when I went up the hill, I would have asked her to join me since I was going to the church. Why didn't the Together Center in Redmond take on this project for housing women and children overnight? It seems the perfect fit to organize this endeavor. Pam Mauk, CEO of Together Center wrote, "works in the tight knit community of human services", she "along with the 22 agencies on campus and other community partners, work td ensure that the well being of the community is supported through the easy availability of key services". This was written in the Redmond Reporter on July 7, 2017. "Together Center agencies, for example, provide medical and dental care, child care referral, autism advocacy and legislative work, life-long supports for developmentally disabled adults, overnight shelter for homeless youth and much more." Does the City of Bellevue have a together center? In my opinion, too many organizations are trying to help solve the homeless situation. They are all doing good work in their own way. But, today we have over 60+ organizations all trying to do something to solve the problem. There is a lot of duplication and they have staff and expenses to pay. If all current organizations were part of an integrated effort to solve the problem of homelessness, in the entire King County area, duplication could be eliminated and save resources. To start, we could categorize the people in need and select the organization best suited to handle that category. We should not continue to permit more and more little organizations to start up. If I was 20 years younger I would help pull all these organizations together. Even now, I could help as a Senior Citizen Intern. R-1 So here we are today, almost three years later and the neighbors are still upset. A revision to the original conditional use permit (CUP) request was filed in July 2017. This revision increases the number of people, to be accommodated, at the overnight homeless shelter from 25 people to 40 people. R-1 This request for a woman and children's overnight homeless shelter should be denied because it is not suitable at this location. Sorry for going on so long but it really upsets me that we have this problem and it keeps getting worse. The money being spent on homeless ness should solve the problem. I remember when I saw, for the first time, a person(s) holding a sign; it was in 1995 on the Albro Street off ramp from 1-5. A woman held the sign in the morning and a man held the same sign in the afternoon. People would comment that they were a team and probably made a lot of money. This category of people who make a business out of holding signs for their livelihood, should be taken care of very quickly, send them out of town.
