Dear Mr. Case:
This letter is in response to your request for Minor Modification approval to place
an additional 22 parking spaces on the Pacific Utility Corp. site off of SW Hunziker
Street. The property is located at 12805 SW 77th Place (WCTM 2S101 BD, Tax
Lots 101 and 105).
This property is zoned Light Industrial (L -I) in which a manufacturing use is
permitted. The Tigard Community Development Code Chapter 18.360, Site
Development Review, provides that a modification to an approved site plan or
existing use may be a major or a minor modification. Major modifications are
processed as a new Site Development Review application.
Section 18.360.050.8 states that the Director shall determine that a major
modification will result if one (1) or more of the following changes are proposed:
1. An increase in dwelling unit density, or lot coverage for residential
development. The proposal does not include residential development;
therefore, this criterion does not apply.
2. A change in the ratio or number of different types of dwelling units.
The proposal does not include residential development; therefore, this
criterion does not apply.
3. A change that requires additional on - site parking in accordance with
Chapter 18.765. Table 18.765.2 identifies required parking for industrial
uses. Based on the applicant's information regarding the type of industrial
activity, the use is classified as an Industrial Service use. A use of this
type is required to provide 0.8 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of
gross floor area. The proposal is to add parking, not additional floor area
for the industrial use. Therefore, this criterion is not triggered_
It should be noted that Pacific Utility recently received Minor Modification
approval to add approximately 5,000 square feet of assembly shop space.
This request was processed under the previous version of the Community
Development Code. The request did not trigger the 'additional parking"
criterion at that time because the parking requirement was calculated on
the basis of the number of employees rather than square footage under
that version of the code (see Minor Modification letter dated November 3,
1998).

.4. A change in the type of commercial or industrial structures as
defined by the Uniform Building Code. The proposal is to add parking
to the site and will not add to or alter any structure. Therefore, this
criterion does not apply.
5. An increase in the height of the building by more than 20 percent. As
noted above, the proposal will not add a building or alter any existing
buildings in any way. Therefore, this criterion is not applicable.
6. A change in the type and location of accessways and parking areas
where off -site traffic would be affected. The applicant's site plan
indicates that no changes are proposed to the location and type of
existing parking areas or accessways that would affect off -site traffic.
Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
7. An increase in vehicular traffic to and from the site and the increase
can be expected to exceed 100 vehicles per day. The applicant's
statement indicates that the proposed 22 additional parking spaces are for
employees. Based on this information, Staff does not expect vehicle trips
to and from the site to increase more than 22 vehicles per day. Therefore,
this criterion is not triggered.
8. An increase in the floor area proposed for a non - residential use by
more than 10 percent excluding expansions under 5,000 square feet.
The proposal is for additional parking area only. No additional building
floor area is proposed. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
9. A reduction in the area reserved for common open space and/or
usable open space that reduces the open space area below the
minimum required by this code or reduces the open space by more
than 10 percent. There is no common open space provided on the site
and none is required in the underlying I -L zoning district. Therefore, this
criterion does not apply.
10. A reduction of project amenities (recreational facilities, screening,
and /or landscaping provisions) below the minimum established by
this code or by more than 10 percent where specified in the site plan.
Landscaping is the only existing on -site amenity. The I -L zoning district
requires 15% of a site to be landscaped. According to the applicant's site
plan, although some landscaping will be removed, this proposal will retain
approximately 26,045 square feet (17 %) of the site in landscaping. This is
in excess of the minimum landscaping standard and, therefore, this
criterion is not triggered_

11. A modification to the conditions imposed at the time of Site
Development Review approval that are not the subject of criteria (B)
1 through 10 above. Staff has found no record of any conditions
imposed at the time of Site Development Review approval that would
require modification as a result of this proposal.
This request is determined to be a minor modification to approved site plans.
Pursuant to Section 18.360.060.C, the Director's designee has determined,
based on the above findings, that the proposed modification is not a major
modification and does not violate any code provisions. The proposed minor
modification is, therefore, approved.
Please provide a copy of this letter when applying for permits. There is a fee for
the required permits. Please contact the Development Services Division for
information on the current fees.
If you need additional information or have any questions, feel free to call me at
(503) 639-4171 ext. 315.
