Kendrick & Madeline and Hunter Hill DESCRIPTION: A request for a Conditional Use Permit to convert two existing residential units to two motel units for the properties located at 153 and .157 Will Dodge Way. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Commercial Downtown; ZONING: C-1-D; ASSESSOR'S MAP 39 1E 09 BA; TAX LOTS 70003 and 70004 SUBMITTAL DATE: November 1, 2012 DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: November 29, 2012 STAFF APPROVAL DATE: December 26, 2012 DEADLINE TO APPEAL (4:30 p.m.): January 8, 2013 FINAL DECISION DATE: January 9, 2013 APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: January 9, 2014 DECISION In reviewing the history of applications for the subject property, staff noted that the property was created through a two-lot land partition in November of 2005 when Planning Action #2005-01704 was administratively approved. Prior to that partition, the parent parcel's configuration was relatively unique in that the parcel fronted both on East Main Street and on Lithia Way, and was bisected by Will Dodge Way, a public alley. The approved partition separated the property into two parcels. The first, located on the south side of the alley and addressed as 145 East Main, contained the George E. Webber building, a primary contributing resource in the Ashland Downtown Historic District which had been occupied by Harrison's Auto Parts since the 1930's. The second parcel, the subject property here, is loeated'on the north side of the alley with frontage on Lithia Way and an address of 150 Lithia Way. The subject property was approved for the development of a three-story mixed-use building by the Planning Commission in January of 2006 as Planning Action ##2005-02105. This building was completed in May of 2008, and contains 2,351 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor and two 1,794 square foot residential condominium units (addressed as 153 and 157 Will Dodge Way) on the second and third floors. There are no other planning actions of record for the site. i The subject property, located at 150 Lithia Way, is on the south side of Lithia Way, between Pioneer and First Streets. The rear property line abuts Will Dodge Way, a public alley, The lot itself is generally rectangular and relatively flat, with an area of 2,484 square feet, and is fully developed with a three-story, approximately 5,215 square foot mixed-use building constructed in 2008. An existing parking lot located on the adjacent property immediately to the east at 160 Lithia Way was recently approved for development as a three-story, mixed-use building consisting of ground floor restaurant space, five-hotel units on the second floor, and five residential units on the third floor. That construction will likely begin in the coining year. The subject parcel and surrounding properties on the south side of Lithia Way are located in the Retail Commercial district's "Downtown Overlay" and are zoned C-1-D. PA #2012-01540 153-157 Will Dodge Way/olds Page 1 The current application involves a request for a Conditional Use Permit to convert the two existing residential condominium units accessed from Will Dodge Way into two motel units. Each of the existing residences is a two-bedroom; 2%2-bath unit with kitchen facilities, rooftop gardens and patios. The application notes that in keeping with the Municipal Code's definition of a motel, each unit has a separate entrance directly exterior. Within the C-1-1) zoning district, motel use is subject to Conditional Use Permit approval, and unlike other uses within the downtown district, motels must provide one off- street parking space per proposed unit and one additional space for a manager. The application proposes to provide the three parking spaces required to accommodate a two-unit motel using three parking spaces in the George E. Webber Building at 115 East Main Street, just across the Will Dodge Way alley. A parking plan illustrating the proposed parking configuration within the Webber building has been provided, identifying a single full-sized space for the motel manager, and one compact and one standard parking space to accommodate motel guest demand. The submitted materials note that guests will meet the manager at check-in and be personally directed to the parking and provided a code allowing secure keypad access, and the spaces will be assigned based on the guests need (i. e. a gayest with a larger- vehicle could use the standard-sized rrranager•'s space if needed). AMC 18.92.080 provides that required parking facilities may be located on another parcel of land, provided said parcel is within 200 feet of the use it is intended to serve. To be considered in meeting required parking demand, such right to use off site parking must be evidenced by a "deed, lease, casement, or similar written instrument" establishing the right to utilize the parking for the duration of the proposed use. The application notes that the proposed parking spaces are located on another parcel within 35 feet of the entrance to the motel units, and a copy of a 100-year lease, with the option to extend, has been provided assigning spaces to each of the units. The application further notes that an easement to use these parking spaces was granted to each condominium unit under the Condominium Declarations and is thus already associated with each of the residences. In considering the proposed parking on the lower level of the old Harrison's Auto Parts building, which the application suggests has historically been used as parking, Building Division staff has noted that during Harrison's operations the space was primarily utilized for inventory storage and that the garage door was in place to accommodate loading rather than automobile access. Any use for parking or repairs was incidental to the approved storage use, and was seen to have ceased entirely with Harrison's closure some years ago. As such, these spaces are not considered to be "grandfathered," and formalizing their use as parking for a motel use would constitute an intensification of use triggering requirements to comply with current codes to safely ventilate exhaust fumes and provide adequate fire separation (either a one-hour separation with sprinklers or a two-hour separation) between the parking and other uses. The applicant is working with Building Division staff to ensure that these requirements are satisfactorily addressed prior to the proposed change in occupancy. No bicycle parking is identified in the parking plan provided, and the application materials indicate that none is necessary pursuant to AMC 1892.060.13, which provides that bicycle parking need not be installed for residential uses with garages. Motel uses, however, are considered to be a commercial rather than a residential use and require parking to be provided even in the downtown area. In reviewing the proposed parking plan, it appears that there is adequate space within the garage area to accommodate the required two covered bicycle parking spaces. The application notes that the residential units are within an existing building which was approved in 2008, and that no exterior changes will be necessary to accommodate the shift to motel use. The application further notes that the building itself was recently constructed, and that a new electrical transformer was installed by the applicant to accommodate additional demand from anticipated PA 92012-01510 153-157 Will Dodge Way/dds Page 2 development in the vicinity along with the undergrounding of utilities and a new storm drain system to alleviate prior complications with the alley's drainage during heavy rain events. The application suggests that the building is provided with adequate capacity of municipal services in its existing condition to serve both the existing and proposed uses. The application gods on to explain that with the transient nature of motel guests, the demand for services may actually be reduced over what would be expected from full-tune, year-round residential use. The application materials provided suggest that a tourist-oriented use would have a positive impact on the district and surrounding uses. The application further asserts that by locating motel units adjacent to the attractions and services provided within the downtown, the need for reliance on automobiles and the associated impacts of their use will be substantially reduced versus a hotel guest staying outside of the downtown and driving in and parking on-street to take advantage of the downtown's amenities. The application emphasizes that virtually any attraction of interest is within a two-block walk, and the site is well situated to encourage guests to walk, bicycle or use transit. Further, motel use will retain a 24-hour a day residential presence within the downtown which contributes not only to the vitality of the district, but also to a greater sense of safely and security which further enhances the downtown as a pedestrian environment. In considering the request, staff finds that the proposed motel use is well suited to this downtown location, that adequate parking can and will be provided, and that the applicant has met the approval criteria for a Conditional Use Permit. With the proposals of the applicant and the conditions attached to the approval detailed below, staff finds that the proposal complies with all applicable City ordinances. The criteria for Conditional Use Permit approval are described in AMC Chapter 18.104.050, as follows: A. That the use would be in conformance with all standards within the zoning district in which the use is proposed to be located, and in conformance with relevant Comprehensive plan policies that are not implemented by any City, State, or Federal law or program. B. That adequate capacity of City facilities for water, sewer, paved access to and through the development, electricity, urban storm drainage, and adequate transportation can and will be provided to and through the subject property. C. That the conditional use will have no greater adverse material effect on the livability of the impact area when compared to the development of the subject lot with the target use I of the zone. When evaluating the effect of the proposed use on the impact area, the following factors of livability of the impact area shall be considered in relation to the target use of the zone: 1. Similarity in scale, bulk, and coverage. j 2. Generation of traffic and effects on surrounding streets. Increases in pedestrian, bicycle, and mass transit use are considered beneficial regardless of capacity of facilities. 3. Architectural compatibility with the impact area. 4. Air quality, including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental pollutants. 5. Generation of noise, light, and glare. 6. The development of adjacent properties as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. 7. Other factors found to be relevant by the Nearing Authority for review of the proposed use. PA #2012-01540 153-157 will Dodge way/dds Page 3 The application with the attached conditions complies with all applicable City ordinances. Planning Action #2012-01540 is approved with the following conditions. Further, if any one or more of the following conditions are found to be invalid for any reason whatsoever, then Planning Action 2012- 01540 is denied. The following are the conditions and they are attached to the approval: 1. That all proposals of the applicant shall be conditions of approval unless otherwise modified herein, including that three parking spaces shall be provided for guest and manager use in the building across the alley at 145 East Main Street. 2. That all requirements of the previous land use approvals (PA #2005-01704 and PA #2005- 02105) shall remain in effect unless otherwise modified herein. 3. That prior to the change of occupancy for the proposed motel units and their associated parking spaces: a. The requirements of the Building Department, including but not limited to adequate exhaust ventilation and fire separation anal/or fire sprinklers being provided, shall be satisfactorily addressed. b. The requirements of the Fire Department, including that working smoke detectors and/or fire extinguishers be provided, shall be satisfactorily addressed. 4. That prior to commencement of the motel use: a. The applicant/business owner shall obtain a City of Ashland Business License and Transient Occupancy Registration Certificate. b. The applicant/business owner shall obtain any required licensing, permits or inspections from.the state or county health departments for the operation of transient occupancy units. 5 That prior to any modification of the approved signage, the applicant/business owner shall demonstrate that proposed signage complies with applicable sign regulations in AMC 18.96 and obtain a sign permit.

After having owned the property for more than forty years, Mary Meikle (Jasper's widow) sold the building to Wells D. and Anna I. Jackson and Carl and Laura Sears, partners in the Mountain States Music Company which had been located in the building (149 East Main) at least since 1942. (JCD 287:495) By 1948, in addition to the music company and the cleaners, the Meikle Building was occupied by a Western Union office, the Palace Caf6, and the Southern Oregon News, a weekly newspaper that had moved to Ashland from Jacksonville. During the 1950s the Meikle Block continued as the home of a series of small uses. The Palace Cafe, managed by Virgil Jackson, was located in the easternmost storefront according to City Directories. By 1964 the building was occupied by the Ashland Beauty Shop (149), the Elhart Music Shop (159), Mack's News Stand (161), Standard Cleaners (163) and the Palace Cafe. In 1968 the building was sold to Edd Roundtree, editor of the Ashland Daily Tidings and it was apparently in connection with that sale the facades were remodeled to their present design, with the application of a pebble-dash masonry panels over the original bearing masonry. Gary Afseth served as the architect and Merle Howard as the contractor to "remodel face of old Jackson Building" according to the permit. (City of Ashland Permit 1925, July 1968) While the upper facade of the Meikle Block is presently clad with the non-historic panels from the 1968 project, the storefronts despite some remodeling and door replacement, remain essentially intact with recessed entryways, bulkheads and fixed glazing. Were the facade panels removed, this building could easily again convey its development during the period of significance which at the moment is evident only along the rear, alley-facing, elevation.

BUILDING 1904 145 MAIN ST E 391E09BA 11000 Early Modern: Art Moderne/Streamlined Primary Contributing The George Webber Building was built in 1904, last of a group of three new business blocks built adjoining the Opera House between 1904 and 1905. Geo. E. Webber, of this city, has bought the east 40 feet of the S. M. Byers property on Main street ...Mr. Webber will erect a two-story brick as soon as he can get the material, it is announced. (Tidings, 16-Jun-1904, 2:4)12 12 See JCD 50:132. NPS Form 10-900-A OMB Approval No. 9024-0018 (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section Number: 7 Page: 17 Ashland Downtown Historic District, Ashland, OR A month later, reporting on the localized building boom that included both ID #'s 11.0 and 12.0, the paper reported; Contracts will soon be let for the construction of there new brick business blocks adjoining the Opera House ...the third [is] by George Webber. The second story on Mr. Webber's block will very likely be owned and constructed by one of the fraternal orders of this city (Tidings, 14-Jul-1904, 3:1) The second floor was never built and Webber's building was apparently completed by late 1904. In 1907, Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps document the structure as being occupied by a confectionery and cigar stand, Rose Brothers, long a popular Ashland business. Established six years ago in its present location at 145 E Main, [Rose Bros.] has grown to -be the leading one in its line in this city... (Ashland Record, Progress Edition, 5-June-1912) In 1928 the building was occupied by a stationary store. The present use, Harrison's Auto Parts, opened in this building in the mid-1930s and has occupied the building since. In .1953 the rear of the building was expanded with a concrete addition. (Tidings, 27-Aug 1953, 1:8) At some point, probably in the 1930s with the arrival of Harrison's, the original brick facade of the Webber Building was modernized to its present modest Art Moderne stuccoed appearance. Historic photographs show the building as originally designed with a modest brick facade topped by a dentil band. The present exterior is of minimally Moderne style, retaining a stepped parapet and two engaged pilasters flanking the recessed entryway. The storefront glazing, redesigned with brick bulkheads and fixed metal-sash display windows effectively relates the building's remodeled appearance during the latter half of the period of significance. ]iD# 11.0 Survey #264 i FIRST SO.OREGON SPIRITUALIST SOCIETY [MINKLERI BLDG 1905 (1931) 131 MAIN ST F 391E09BA 11100 Builder, Bamber A.

Verification of Tax Lot and Owner Information 153 Will Dodge Way Map 391E09BA Tax Lot 70003 Owner: Robert J Kendrick 157 Will Dodge Way Map 391E0913A Tax Lot 70004 Owner: Madeline and Hunter Hill (Madeline and Hunter Hill have provided a letter authorization me to act on their behalf in this application and it is attached to this response:) B. Parking Plan: Attached is a full size plan that is scalable for your review. There are three parking spaces indicated on the plan, which meet the requirement of the Code for Motel parking. Clearance from Trash, Vault and Stairs: The parking space near the stairs, alley, trash receptacle and transformer is not submitted for use under this application, but the plan is scalable for your use with the inclusion of the stairs and transformer. Three space parking demand: The parking plan submitted and the car spaces within that plan are the parking spaces for the Motel users, and manager. Compact Spaces: Only 33% of the parking spaces are compact therefore meeting the code requirement. Bicycle parking; Under Code Section 18.92.060 (B) placement and coverage of the bicycles is not required. We of course have plenty of room in the garage for 1 bicycles and in the building if the tourist wishes to have a bicycle. All these spaces are not within view of the public and secure for the guest. C. Parking Lease: Copies of the lease are attached D. Parking Functionality: A copy of the parking plan is attached for your review. Noted on the previous application and the previous parking plan, and also this plan is a directional arrow indicating the location of the entrance of the units and the parking spaces. The arrow indicates the distance is 35 feet. The parking garage is within unobstructed eyesight's of the entrance of the unit. Parking Able and Likely to be Used by the Guest: The guest will meet the manager at the building entrance at a (pre rearranged) arrival time. The manager will show the guest the parking space on arrival. Because the space is so convenient there is very little reason for the guest to be parking at any other space. This would be very inconvenient for the guest. Parking Signs: Since the manager will meet all guests and show them the parking space no signs will be provided. We believe the placement of signs detract from our business's and clutter the site and are not needed since we personally direct the tenant to the parking space. Access Garage Door: The garage door has a keypad with a security number that is given the tenant upon arrival by the Manager. The door also has an automatic garage door opener that is offered to the tenant. Note on Parking Plan and Assignment of Spaces: The Plan indicates a Full Size Parking space for the Manager but the manager drives a compact car. It is our intent that parking is assigned on the basis of what is needed by the tenant. When the manager meets the guest they will access the parking need and assign the space best suited for the guest. The manager will use any remaining and unassigned parking space when needed.

Kendrick 153 Wilt Dodge Way Ashland, OR 97520 RE: PA #2012-01540, for the property located at 153-157 Will Dodge Way Incompleteness Determination Dear Mr. Kendrick, I have reviewed your application materials received on November 1, 2012 for a Condition Use Permit to operate two motel units for the property located at 153-157 Will Dodge Way. After examining the materials presented, I have determined that the application is incomplete because the information listed below was not provided. Incomplete applications are subject to delay in accordance with ORS 227.178. The application cannot be further processed and deemed complete until the missing information is submitted or the applicant indicates that the missing information will not be provided. Verification of Correct Tax Lot and Owner Information: The application form provided identifies the subject properties' tax lots as 39 1E 09BA 7003 and 7004, and Robert Kendrick as the property owner for both. Neither of these tax lot numbers is valid according to Jackson County records. Based on the address information provided, it appears that the tax lots involved are 39 1E 09 BA 70003 and 70004. Please verify that these are the correct tax lot numbers, as correct tax lot numbers are required to be provided in the public notices sent and are used in generating the list of neighboring property owners to receive required notice. In addition, Jackson County records identify Madeline and Hunter Hill as the property owners of 157 Will Dodge Way (39 1E 09BA 70004). If this is the case, the Hills will need to sign the application form before the application can be deemed complete. Parking Plan: The parking plan provided is not legible or scalable, and staff is unable to determine if the spaces depicted meet parking space dimensional requirements or to verify that required clearances are provided from the nearby stairs, alley right-of-way, or the transformer and trash receptacle which also Community Development Dept.

It is unclear which of the four spaces shown are to address the three-space parking demand for the proposed motel units and manager, and 75 percent of the spaces identified are labeled as compact spaces when no more than 50 percent of required spaces may be compact under parking regulations. The parking plan will need to be revised to address these elements and provided in a scalable format to enable review, and should also identify required bicycle parking spaces which meet the design, placement and coverage standards of the ordinance. (IT need to verify with the Building, Fire and Electric Departments that they have no issues with the parking depicted once I have a scalable plan.) Parking Lease: The application indicates that a 100-year lease for the parking spaces is in place in addition to easements granted in the Condominium Declaration. Copies of the lease or easement will need to be provided to demonstrate compliance with standards for parking provided on another parcel. Parking Functionality: The application will need to address the functionality of parking spaces provided on another parcel, completely enclosed within another building to serve motel guests. In considering the potential impacts in terms of the Conditional Use Permit criteria, it will need to be clear that the spaces provided are both able and likely to be used by guests and that they will not simply choose to park on surrounding streets for the sake of convenience. (Will there be signage directing guests to these spaces? If so, details will need to be provided. Will the garage door remain open or some sort of access control (garage door opener) be provided to enable guest access at all hours? To continue the Planning Department's review of your application, you must select and complete one of the following three options: 1. Submit all of the missing information; 2. Submit some of the requested information and give the City of Ashland Planning Division written notice that no other information will be provided; or 3. Submit written notice to the City of Ashland Planning Division indicating that no other information will be provided. Please note that failure to complete one of the three options within 180 days of the application submittal date (November 1, 2012) will result in your application being deemed void. The application will be deemed void if the additional information is not submitted by April 30, 2013. I Community Development Dept.

I Project Information: Owner/ Applicant: Robert ] Kendrick 153 Will Dodge Way Ashland Oregon, 97520 Project Address: The Lithia Building 153 & 157 Will Dodge Way Ashland Oregon, 97520 Legal Description: 391E09 BA Tax Lots 7003 & 7004 Comprehensive Plan Designation-, Commercial Zoning Designation: C-1-D BACKGROUND: The Lithla Building is a mixed-use commercial/residential condominium, constructed in 2007 and completed in 2008. The commercial portion of the building is a Permitted use and the residential is a Special permitted use, The applicant wants to change the residential use to Motel use, and is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to that of Motel. BUILDING DESCRIPTION: The Lithia Building is approximately 5,215 square feet and consists of four legal separate units, two commercial units on the ground floor, and two residential units with kitchens and baths above. The residential units are side-by-side and configured in a row along Will Dodge Way. They each have two bedrooms and 2 1/z baths with a rooftop gardens and patios, and each unit has one off street parking space. The units are accessed from Will Dodge Way with immediate access to the exterior on Will Dodge Way. The commercial units have display windows and entrances at Lithia Way and on Will Dodge Way. The building is approximately 80% landscaped. The parking area has four large evergreen trees. FACTS AND FINDINGS: Approval Criteria SECTION 18.104.050 A conditional use permit shall be granted if the approval authority Ands that the proposed use conforms, or can be made to conform through the imposition of conditions, with the following approval criteria. A. That the use would be in conformance with all standards within the zoning district in which the use is proposed to be located, and in conformance with 1 relevant Comprehensive plan policies that are not Implemented by any City, State, or Federal law or program. Zoning District: C-1 "D" overlay District Purpose: Section 18.32. 010 This district Is designed to stabilize improve and protect the characteristics of those areas providing commercial commodities and services. Both residential units are in the Lithia Building located in this district and the use by vacationers here would be positive. The impact area is the C-1 District and the addition of tourist related uses is a significant and positive impact on the area and the target uses. The purpose of the district is to protect the characteristics of the area providing commercial commodities and services and this is why the tourist is coming to town. Located adjacent to these services are beneficial because it draws on the services nearby and reduces the impact of automobile use. Since parking is provided there Is no greater demand upon the area by the tourist if they were otherwise located outside the area. Standards: In the C-1 Retail Commercial District the following uses are, a.) Permitted, b.) Special permitted, and c.) Conditionally permitted. Permitted Uses: 18.32.020 Permitted Uses included A. Personal Service establishments The Llthla Building ground floor consists of a "personal Service Establishment", Chloe Salon, approved by the City of Ashland. Special Permitted Uses 18.32.025 Special Permitted Uses D. Residential uses, The top floors of the building currently have two residential condo units 153 & 157 Will Dodge Way approved by the City Of Ashland and fully completed in 2008, and a change in use to Motel under a Conditional Use Permit is requested. Conditional Uses 18.32.030 The following uses and their accessory uses are permitted when authorized In accordance with the chapter on Conditional Use Permits: D. Hotel and Motels Section 18.08.510 Motel: A building or group of buildings on the same lot containing guest units for rental to transients, with separate entrances directly exterior and consisting of individual sleeping quarters, detached or in connected rows, with or without cooking facilities. (Ord. 2052, 1979) 2 153 & 1157 Will Dodge Way are two units In one building on one lot that have separate entrances directly exterior. They each have individual sleeping quarters and the units are connected in a row, both having cooking facilities. Other Standards: Parking 18.32. 050 "D" Downtown Overlay District A. In all areas within the "D" Downtown Overlay District, all uses are not required to provide off-street parking or loading areas, except for hotel, motel, or hostel uses. 153 & 157 Will Dodge Way currently have off street parking spaces 35 feet from their entrances. With a change in use to Motel they will comply by providing one parking space for each room. There is a loading zone located directly behind the Lithia Building in Will Dodge Way, 18. 92.030 Automobile Parking Spaces Required 4. Hotels and motels, one space for each guest room, plus one space for the owner or manager. 153 & 157 Will Dodge Way are each a guest room and have a parking space for each room, plus one space for the manager, 18.92.080 Parking Access and Circulation Design 1. Except for single and two-family dwellings, required automobile parking facilities may be located on another parcel of land, provided said parcel is within 200 feet of the use it is intended to serve. The distance from the parking lot to the use shall be measured In walking distance from the nearest parking space to an access to the building housing the use, along a sidewalk or other pedestrian path separated from street traffic. Such right to use the off-site parking must be evidenced by a deed, lease, easement, or similar written instrument establishing such use, for the duration of the use. 2. Except as allowed in the subsection below, automobile parking shall not be located in a required front and side yard setback area abutting a public street, except alleys. 153 & 157 Will Dodge Way parking is located on another parcel of land that is within 35 feet of the entrance of the rooms. There is a 100=year lease, with options to extend, for each parking space to each room. An easement was granted to the units under the Condominium Declaration. Additionally there is a parking space abutting the parking structure at 145 Main Street, in the alley of Will Dodge Way. B. That adequate capacity of City facilities for water, sewer, paved access to and through the development, electricity, urban storm drainage, and adequate transportation can and will be provided to and through the subject property. The Lithia Building was developed in 2008 and there will be no change in the building structure. There is adequate capacity for 3 all services in It's existing condition and any change in use will not increase the demand for additional capacity but may in fact decrease due the occupancy levels of tourist vs, that of residential. In addition during construction of the Lithia Building the owners installed additional capacity for electrical services to the entire area through the grant of an easement for the location of a new transformer, the funds for the purchase of a new transformer and the installation of underground utility lines, plus a storm drain system to alleviate the flooding in Will Dodge Way. The line is installed under the Lithia Building from the catch basin in Will Dodge Way. Transportation capacity will not increase and more than likely be less since tourist will have access to all the attractions within walking distance. There is adequate paved access for cars and pedestrians along Will Dodge Way. I C. That the conditional use will have no greater adverse material effect on the livability of the impact area when compared to the development of the subject lot with the target use of the zone. When evaluating the effect of the proposed use on the impact area, the following factors of livability of the impact area shall be considered in relation to the target use of the zone. 1. Similarity in scale, bulk, and coverage. 153 and 957 Will Dodge Way are existing structures and there will be no change to the scale, bulk, and coverage of the site. 2: Generation of traffic and effects on surrounding streets. Increases In pedestrian, bicycle, and mass transit use are considered beneficial regardless of capacity of facilities. 153 and 157 Will Dodge Way are located where no motor vehicle use is required because all attractions and activities for the visitors are located within one to two blocks walking distance from the units. The visitors at this location walk, bike and have access to mass transit. Additionally all the current existing uses around the area will benefit from the travelers, who will visit, shop and contribute to the local businesses. The use by vacationers and the pedestrian traffic contributes to a safe and comfortable community because there is a presence of people in the downtown area 24 hours a day. They walk the streets and contribute to a sense of security and safety for others to come and stay. This enhances the local environment for more pedestrian use. Any impact on the area is only beneficial and positive and in a sense a greater impact when it comes to increasing tourist and visitors to the community to come shop, eat and go to the theatres. To the community at large they 4 contribute to the tax revenue through logging and dinning fees. Tourist are the target users for the downtown area and this use fulfills the purpose of the downtown C-1 area. 3. Architectural compatibility with the impact area. The Lithia Building was built in 2008 and meets all design criteria for the area. 4. Air quality, including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental pollutants. There is no increase of dust, odors, or other pollutants. 5. Generation of noise, light, and glare. There is no greater generation of noise, light and glare. 6. The development of adjacent properties as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. The change in use will not impact the adjacent properties from their intended use. There are currently approvals at these properties for new buildings Including additional commercial, residential and motel uses. Motel use has demonstrated that it will have only positive impacts to properties envisioned in the Comp Plan. 7. Other factors found to be relevant by the Hearing Authority for review of the proposed use. Development of adjacent properties has been changing continually since the development of the Lithia Building. The Lithia Building was developed under the downtown design guidelines for Will Dodge Way. The guidelines encouraged storefronts along the Will Dodge Way. The owners developed the building in such a way that provided parking for the condo's in the garage across the alley, rather than design the parking garages into the ground floor of the Lithia Building. The parking used was pre-existing, and in operation since the 1950's in the old Harrison Auto Parts building at 145 B. Main Street, where trucks were once parked along with the machinery. Other developments along Will Dodge Way didn't fallow the guidelines and put garages on the ground floor. The owner Bob Kendrick also rehabbed his building at the entry end of Will Dodge Way on Pioneer, by removing and relocating all the utilities into a compact location, removed the broken 5 sidewalk and revealing the windows in the building by removing the boarded up windows along the alley. Landscaping was put back in place of the concrete. Landscaping was also installed at the back of Lithia building and the Main Street building. Since then more retail tenants have been added in the area and new developments approved. Many existing buildings have leased to tenants compatible to the Comp plans target users. The Lithia Building with the existing residential condos and commercial components on the ground floor are fully developed in the C-1-"D" District. There is parking for the residential/motel units each located across the alley with long- term leases to park. The Lithia Building has a full time manager and a parking space at the same location. There Is no doubt the mixed-use development of the Lithia Building stabilized the area. It added continuity to commercial retail district area for the pedestrian. Motels provide transient quarters close to businesses and attractions tourist frequently visit. Because everything is within walking distance to attractions, (dinning, theatre entertainment and shops), it reduces the reliance on the automobile. Motel use is also a peaceful use and causes no noise or affects the activities of other commercial activities other than the normal activity of talking while coming and going about the city. The comprehensive plan states that city vacationers effect the character of the City and the local economic health of the community and that a major portion of retail sales where derived from tourist. The Comprehensive Plan also states that Tourist accommodations are appropriate to the area. Thank you, Robert Kendrick 6 j ADDENDUM PARKING A parking plan is attached to the application.
