To: Planning Commission
From: t�ldie Howard
Planning Director
Subject: Request From Fred Nleyer to Alter and Improve the Home ,
Improvement Center - Ref. SDR 11-79
Date; I�arch 20, 1979
Applicant wishes to improve and expand the home center in the Fred Meyer .
Complex on 99W. Staff has determined that this complex is "Non-Confoxming"
with regards to landscaping, signs, parking screening and entrance require- .
ments off 99W.
Normally this would have to come before th� Planning Commission, however, I
do not feel that the "Non-Conformance" is significant enough to warrant such
� review which would cause unnecessary delay and expense to the applicant�
Present signing regulati.ons will require that the large sign be removed by
January ].1, 1981 per Sign Ordinance 16.24.010 Tigard Municipal Code. We I
have required additional landscaping around the home center addition and ,
along 99W. We have suggested improvement of the access off 996�J with additional
traffic restrictions. The installation of a bus shelter at the corner ot 99F1 ��
�A, and 71st Avenue has been made a condition of this approval. Ili
From a logical and realisi:ic standpoint we have im�roved the site considerably II
� from what is existing now. I do not think that total conformance to City I
�� codes is possible. Tn reviewing �this application staff considered total '
�! con�ormance and realized that "inaking the best out of what exists" was the I
only realistic approach to take. Had this application been for construction '
of a totally new .building, then we could have required total conformance, I
but where it was only for a sma11 addition to an existing structure we were '
able to improve a portion of the entire site, i
Tf you wish to review the entire matter, we will report to the applicant
and bring them before you. However, as I have stated, I think that a sitE
design review at the staff level is sufficient under these circumstances.
