The agent requested an extension from the September 16 to the October 21 , 1986 public hearing based on the need for additional time for the applicant to consider certain land use actions that are occurring in the vicinity of the subject property, namely the construction of the South 212th Street interchange and the City's plans for the regional storm water detention pond adjacent to the subject property. A copy of Lawrence Campbell letter, dated September 4, 1986, is attached for your information and consideration. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the extension request.

Campbell & Associates — Architects & Planners September 4, 1986 Mr. James Harris--Planning Director City of Kent P.O. Box 310 Kent, WA 98032 Re: File # CPA 86-1; Harold James request for Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Original public hearing was held on Tuesday, August 19, 1986, at 7:30 P.M. in the Kent City Hall, City Council Chambers. Dear Sir: On August 19, 1986, 1 submitted a letter to Mr. Ray Ward (Chairman, Kent Planning Commission) requesting a continuance of the above referenced action. Said continuance was granted, and we are requesting that this issue be placed on the agenda for the October 21, 1986 public hearing, or as soon thereafter as possible. Our reasoning for this request is that the proposal to be submitted will consider all of the changing and current land-use patterns in the vicinity of Mr. James property; and we cannot complete the necessary research and document preparation by the scheduled September 16 hearing date. If this request is acceptable, please notify me as soon as possible so that we may proceed accordingly. Respectfully, Lawrence M.
