CONDITIONS, FINDINGS, AND CONCLUSIONS IN SUPPORT OF FINAL APPROVAL
OF PHASE I — CAMPBELL AVENUE PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT:
Conditions:
1. All conditions of preliminary approval shall remain in effect throughout development
of the entire PRD.
2. An Assignment of Savings in the amount of $5,000 to ensure completion or mitigation
required by Wetland Permit WP 04 -01 as amended, and monitoring of on site
wetlands, shall remain in place for a two year period after completion of
improvements or mitigation required by Wetland Permit WP 04 -01 are complete.
3. Erosion and sedimentation controls shall be in place and properly maintained
throughout build out of Phase I.
4. The developer shall post "No Outlet" signs or other signage acceptable to the City at
the terminus of Eckard Avenue and Wabash Street indicating no ingress /egress at that
location. The barricade shall be developed to accommodate emergency vehicle use
and shall be approved by the City Fire Department for emergency access. The barrier
shall remain in place until Campbell Avenue improvements have been made in
accordance with Condition 6 of the preliminary conditions of approval.
Findings:
1. The Revised Code of Washington RCW 58.17 contains the State's guidelines for the
uniform division of land within the State of Washington. Section 58.17.110 requires a city
to inquire into the public use and interest proposed to be served by the establishment of a
subdivision. It shall determine if appropriate provisions are made for, but not limited to,
the public health, safety, and general welfare, for open spaces, drainage ways, streets or
roads, alleys, other public ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes,
parks and recreation, playgrounds, schools and school grounds, and shall consider all other
relevant facts including sidewalks and other planning features that assure safe walking
conditions for students who only walk to and from school and whether the public interest
will be served by the subdivision. A proposed subdivision shall not be approved unless
the city can make written findings that these provisions are made. All issues relevant to
the test of whether a PRD proposal should be approved were reviewed during preliminary
review of the Campbell Avenue PRD and subdivision. Conditions were applied to
preliminary approval to ensure compliance with all relevant development standards.
2. Preliminary approval was given to the Campbell Avenue PRD and Subdivision on
March 21, 2006, subject to 20 conditions. PRD development was further defined
through a Developer's Agreement entered into between the City of Port Angeles and
property owner Green Crow Properties, Inc. on August 3, 2004. An application
requesting approval of the final plat was presented to the City Department of
Community & Economic Development on December 8, 2008.
3. Chapters 16.08 and 17.19 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code (PAMC) set forth local
requirements for the development and approval of planned residential developments
and subdivisions within the City of Port Angeles.
4. The City's Fire, Public Works and Utilities, Parks and Recreation, and Community and
Economic Development Departments reviewed the final submittal for compliance with
preliminary conditions of approval. Staff met with the applicant to discuss how the
conditions of approval had been met and identified two outstanding issues that can be
addressed through conditions to the final plat. Items that need to be further enforced
include a requirement to provide signage and a barricade such that access to Wabash
Street is not permitted until such time as Campbell Avenue improvements have been
completed per preliminary approval Condition 6, and that an assignment of savings
remain in force for a period of two years following development of on site wetlands,
per amended Wetland Permit WP 04 -01.
5. Legal notice of public hearing was provided on December 10, 2008, per Section
17.95.140 PAMC indicating that a public hearing would be conducted in consideration
of the final plat on January 6, 2009. No written comment was received as a result of
that notification.
6. The City Council opened the scheduled public hearing for consideration of Phase I of
the PRD on January 6, 2009. At the applicant's request, the matter was continued to
January 20, 2009.
Conclusions:
A. Appropriate provisions have been made for the public health, safety and general
welfare and for such open spaces, drainage ways, streets or roads, alleys, other public
ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation,
playgrounds, schools and school grounds, sidewalks and other planning features that
assure safe walking conditions for students who only walk to and from school. As
conditioned, traffic and safety issues have been addressed such that no impact to
Campbell Avenue as a result of the final of Phase I shall occur. As conditioned,
infrastructure development is in accordance with preliminary conditions of approval.
B. All necessary utility and emergency services are provided consistent with the Urban
Services Standards and Guidelines and the Capital Facilities Element of the
Comprehensive Plan level of service standards.
C. As conditioned, on site wetland development is in compliance with Section
15.24.070(H)(2)(b) PAMC and with Wetland Permit WP 04 -01.
D. Process of the final plat is in compliance with Chapters 16.08 and 17.19 PAMC, and
with Chapter 58.17 RCW, the Washington State Subdivision Act.
Adopted by the Port Angeles City Council at its meeting of January 20, 2009.
