If you read the Time Business article below about pot growing warehouses that I recently posted, you can compare the proposed 40,000 sq. ft. warehouses and come up with 6000 gal. of water being filtered daily in the growing operation of pot plants. There is enough issues with water leaving the site with asphalt, sidewalks and roof areas that will create problems with Jenkins creek. I hope the engineering of the detention system is adequate for this. The ground water coming into this site from the surrounding area in the rainy season has never had any kind history recorded according to King Co. permit review.
Before the building is built, construction will create issues. They are noise, pollution, traffic and erosion control. Trucking will be a big issue. Alone there will be roughly 5000 trips in and out of a narrow road that will be very dangerous for the neighborhood. This includes trash trucks, truck and trailers, side dumps, belly dumps, concrete trucks, pump trucks, crane and excavation equipment. Also, delivery of all the products that go into building the building and exterior of the building. The last third of the project will have about 50 workers at times in the finish cycle. Also the owner will be setting up plant equipment. Traffic control and repairing the road are a given. I can't imagine any community would want this.
