Dear Rory,
This letter is in response to your June 30th request to add parking
spaces on the southeast property line, remove two parking spaces
adjacent to building #1 for the addition of an overhead door at
13950 and 13970 SW 72nd Avenue, commonly known as Finlandia
Business Park.
This property is zoned I-L (Light Industrial) . The present use of
the site is listed as a permitted use for this zoning district.
The Community Development Code Site Development Review Section
states that if the requested modification meets any of the major
modification criteria, that this request shall be reviewed as a new
Site Development Review application.
This request does not meet any of the 10 approval criteria for
qualification as a major modification as listed in Section
18 . 120 . 070 (B) . This is specified as follows :
1) Dwelling unit density will not be affected since this is a
commercial use;
2) Dwelling unit density will not be affected since this is a
industrial use;
3) This change will not increase the need for additional on-site
parking since no additional employees will be added. However,
there will be a net increase in the number of on-site parking
spaces;
4) The request will not result in a change in the type of
commercial or industrial structures;
5) There will not be an increase in any building height;
6) The request will not result in a change in the type and
location of accessways and parking areas where off-site
traffic would be affected;

7) The modification will not produce an increase in vehicular
traffic to or from the site;
8) The request will not result in a change in the floor area
proposed for nonresidential use by more than 10 percent;

of the area reserved for common open space and\or usable open
space;
10) This request will not cause the elimination of project
amenities by more than 10 percent;

the time of site development review approval.
Therefore, this request is determined to be a minor modification to
an existing site . The Director' s designee has determined that the
proposed minor modification of this existing site will promote the
general welfare of the City and will not be significantly
detrimental nor injurious to surrounding properties provided that
development which occurs after this decision complies with
applicable local state and federal laws.
This request has been approved subject to the following conditions :
1 . A building permit shall be obtained from the Building
Department .
If you need additional information, please feel free to call me.
