MUNICIPAL C.ODE AMENDMENTS MeA 96-11
H..ol1SEKE~G~URES: Proposed amendments to Titles 14,16,
and 17 (Parking, Short Plat/Subdivision, Zoning, respectively) of the Port
Angeles Municipal Code. The measures are intended to be for clarification
purposes. (Continued from December 11,1996.)
Chair King opened the continued public hearing. Planning Director Brad Collins noted that it had
been requested that the title of the file be changed to read "CLARIFICATION OF THE PORT
ANGELES MUNICIPAL CODE AMENDMENT" rather than "HOUSEKEEPING MEASURES".
The file notation (MCA 96-11) would remain the same.
Senior Planner David Sawyer reviewed the Planning Department's December 5, 1996, memorandwn
which outlined the amendments proposed to the City's Subdivision, Zoning, and Parking
Ordinances. The items are considered to be housekeeping in nature as they are meant to correct or
clarify areas of confusion that have become apparent. No new regulations are included.
There being no further testimony from the public present, Chair King closed the public hearing and
the Commission began an item by item review of the proposed amendments.

Discussion on the proposed amendment to Section l4.40.060 of the PAMC (noted above) began.
Commissioner Philpott indicated that he preferred wording be included to allow for an automatic
parking reduction in instances where the development proposed would be restricted to low income
or senior households.
Commissioner Craver felt that an automatic provision of less parking should be given to those types
of development that provide van service for residents thereby encouraging fewer vehicles, or where
fewer vehicles are associated with the normal residential population of a certain development.
.
Commissioner Nutter was concerned that changing the parking requirement in the suggested manner
may cause problems in the future as it would not result in a City wide consistency. She preferred
that parking variances be requested when a development proposal includes a parking reduction to
allow for the merits of a p.articular development to be reviewed on a case by case basis rather than
an outright reduction,
Following further discussion, Commissioner Nutter moved to leave Section 14.40.060(D) as is.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Reed and passed 3 - 2, with Commissioners
Craver and Philpott voting in the negative. Commissioner Philpott's and Craver's negative
votes were due to their previously expressed concerns.
Planning Specialist Sue Roberds noted that, in addition to the amended wording proposed to require
final approvals for short plats and 'subdivisions for consistency, it is also recommended that
boundary line adjustment final approvals (Section 16.12.070 PAMC) be amended accordingly so
that all these development issues will be consistent where the discrepancy can now result in
confusion. The change in the required signatures affects only the Public Works Departmental
approval and results in the Director signing final submittals in all cases.
Planner Sawyer continued discussion and review of the amendment proposals by providing specific
reasoning behind the recommendation to eliminate Section 17.16 "Homes for the Elderly, Nursing
Homes, Elderly Group Care Homes Conditional Use Permit" from the Zoning Code. The provisions
of Section 17.16 conflict with other sections of the Zoning Ordinance and are redundant in some
areas that deal with senior care housing and with State Department of Social and Health Services
terminology. The amendment will eliminate confusion and bring uniformity to the regulations
. dealing with senior care developments.
Director Collins added that the proposal also needs to eliminate reference to "supported living
.
.
.
Planning Commission Minutes. January 8. 1997
Page 3
arrangements" that now exists in the Zoning Ordinance. The proposal will allow staff to deal with
a variety of senior care living situations that are now difficult to deal with in a consistent manner due
to ever changing terminology and ever changing State regulations and care requirements.
Planner Sawyer explained that density information is proposed to be included in the description of
each zone's development regulation information as it is required by the City's Comprehensive Plan
and will aid in eliminating density allowance confusion.
In response to Commissioner Craver, Mr. Sawyer explained that assisted living facilities would be
listed as conditional uses in all zones where such uses are permitted. Commissioner Craver preferred
that assisted living facilities be a permitted use in at least one zone to ensure ease of development
and to avoid the conflict that could result from being a conditional use. It was agreed to leave
"assisted living facilities" as a permitted use in the CN, Commercial Neighborhood, zone.
Director Collins reminded the Commission about the proposal presented at the December 11, 1996,
hearing from Mr. Richard Black, who was in the audience, in regard to a restriction to six feet for
vegetation that results in a hedge anywhere on a property. Staffs recommendation is to only restrict
hedges within setback areas but not within building envelopes.
In response to Chair King's inquiry as to whether Mr. Black had anything to add, Mr. Richard
Black, 2104 West Fourth Street, encouraged the Commission to restrict vegetative clusters that
result in hedges to a maximum growth of six feet.
Following brief discussion, the Commission concurred that vegetative hedges "shall not exceed six
(6) feet in height within setback areas" and that wording be included to require that all traffic safety
requirements (vision triangles) shall be maintained.
Following summary review of the remaining amendment proposals, Commissioner Nutter moved
to forward a recommendation to the City Council to adopt the amendments as included in the
attached Exhibit "A" as revised by tbe Planning Commission, citing the following findings and
conclusions:
Findings:
1. The City Planning Department's policy is to note areas of concern or error contained in those
regulations that deal with land development within the City of Port Angeles and bring these
issues to the attention ofthe City Council through the Planning Commission for review and
possible amendment.
2. Situations have occurred during the past several years where parking regulations have been
questioned as they relate to parking for elderly residential facilities, including nursing and
convalescent homes, assisted living facilities, residential care facilities, adult family homes,
group homes, and sanitariums.
3.
State law Chapter 58.17 RCW requires that subdivisions provide for safe walking routes to
schools for children.

Engineer approve short plats/subdivisionslboundary line adjustments.
6. The City's Light Department and Public Works Departments have been combined into one
department.
7. Definitions have been reviewed and amendments proposed that will ensure consistency with
State and local terminology and will ensure correlation between local ordinances.
8. "Assisted living facilities" are not defined or addressed in the current Zoning Code.
9. The current Zoning Code does not clearly establish residential density limitations.
10. The Comprehensive Plan establishes density limitations for residential uses,
11.

the elderly, nursing and convalescent homes, and elderly group care homes by conditional

STAFF REPORTS
Clarification by the Planning Commission regarding the recommendation
forwarded to the City Council regarding the City~s Transportation Plan.
Planning Director Collins reported that the City Council requested clarification of the Planning
Commission's recommendation in relation to that ofthe Transportation Plan's proposed Alternative
3, a second crossing of White's Creek, in the City's Transportation Plan, which recommendation
was forwarded to the Council on December 3, 1996. He suggested that following Mr. Kenworthy's
staff report, the Commission may wish to schedule a further public hearing in order to amend its
previous recommendation. A principal factor of Alternative 3 of the Transportation Plan is the
White's Creek crossing. There are alternatives to Lauridsen Boulevard as part of a crossing that are
not considered in the Transportation Plan that may need to be reviewed further.
Gary Kenworthy, City Engineer, referred to a handout that showed three alternative routes for a
second crossing of White's Creek. The Planning Commission's recommendation following a public
hearing on November 20, 1996, did not include a second crossing of White's Creek. The
recommendation was an alternative crosstown route that extended east only as far as Race Street and
then north on Race Street to First Street. The recommendation did not recognize a need for a future
crossing of White's Creek. The Commission's recommendation was based on the concern of
monetary expenditure that would not increase the level of service, He explained various crossing
scenarious to Golf Course Road that would put the City in line with any future extension to the east
without developing an entire Heart of the Hills Parkway plan.
David Sawyer added that dialogue with the Planning Commission at the November 20, 1996, hearing
did not include alternatives such as a second crossing further south, possibly along the existing
Bonneville powerline easement, which would keep the possibility for a second creek crossing open
with the added possibility of extension further east than the present City limits. Without a second
crossing, traffic would not be affected on First and Front Streets in a significant manner, there would
also be modeling deviations from those used by the transportation consultants which will affect
future bridge and roadway improvements. Land use issues would also be impacted. The revised
alternative that is being proposed was not discussed previously. Ifthe Commission is amenable to
such discussion, a public hearing could be scheduled for February. There is no time frame involved
in this issue.
Director Collins summarized that it wasn't dear to the City Council how the recommendation of the
Transportation Plan by the consultant and the alternate recommendation of the Planning Commission
was intended. Was it meant that there would not be a second crossing of White's Creek, or was it
meant that there might be an alternative alignment. The Comprehensive Plan's policies are that a
second exit from town should be provided for. Was the Commission's recommendation an intention
Planning CommissiQn Minutes - January 8. 1997
Page 6
.
to move in a different direction than the Comprehensive Plan? He noted that the intent of staff's
proposal would not result in truck traffic on Golf Course Road. Golf Course Road was not designed
for truck traffic. A second crossing would occur in three phases and would relieve congestion on
the First/Front Street corridor. Given the recent snowfall emergency conditions in the City, it would
appear prudent to plan for an alternative travel/exit route to and from the City.
Engineer Kenworthy stated that if a further public hearing is desired, information could also be
included in one revised recommendation to the City Council that would include information
proposed by the City's Nonmotorized Committee. The new alternative that is being proposed as a
second crossing opportunity would result in less environmental impact as it could be planned along
the already cleared Bonneville powerline instead of clearing property that has never been cleared.
Planner Sawyer noted that any future crossing of White's Creek would depend on future funding
opportunities. A phased project would make such an undertaking much easier to accomplish.
Without a crossing proposal in the City's policy documents, future funding could be jeopardized.
Kathe Smith, indicated that the City's Nonmotorized Committee should be ready for public input
on its recommendations to the City Council by the first of March. She responded to Chair King that
ifthe Committee's proposal is adopted by the City Council, future facilities would be required to
include standards that would accommodate nonmotorized travel through the City.
.
There was consensus by the Commissioners that staff perform some limited modeling with regard
to the alternative being proposed for consideration and to further discuss an alternative second
crossing issue at public hearing on February 26, 1997.
REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Director Collins answered Commissioner Nutter that the American Planning Association has
scheduled a winter planning conference for January 25, 1997, in Port Orchard. Limited funding is
available for Commissioners to attend that meeting.
He indicated that the short course on planning issues has been rescheduled in Poulsbo for January
30, 1997. An additional course may be held in Port Angeles later, possibly March or April, due to
the number of new Planning Commissioners expected for the County, and a local short course may
. .
be more convement to attend.
Planner Sawyer added that the Washington State American Planning Association annual three day
conference will be held in Vancouver, B.c., in April. Director Collins noted that out-of-state travel
is not allowed except to Vancouver, B.C., however, it is possible that there may not be enough
funding for attendance at the Vancouver conference. He encouraged Commissioners to attend the
one day local conference.
