CITY COUNCIL MEMO
August 21,2007
CITY COUNCIL
Dan McKeen, Fire Chief
Ou---.
Updates to Port Angeles Municipal Code
Summary: The City of Port Angeles regularly adopts new editions of the model codes. In July of
2007, the City adopted the 2006 edition of the International Codes. Several sections of the Port
Angeles Municipal Code now require up dating as a part ofthis code adoption. The updates eliminate
rebates for specific sprinkler system installations and also eliminate requir~ments for certain fire
alarm systems.
Recommendation: Conduct second reading of proposed modifications to the Port Angeles
Municipal Code that are a result of adoption of the 2006 editions of the International Fire and
Building Codes. Adopt ordinance as presented.
Backe-round: The State of Washington and the City of Port Angeles utilize the International
Codes as a model code for the building and fire codes. The International Codes are updated
regularly on a three-year cycle. As each new edition of the codes is promulgated, the codes are
reviewed by the Washington State Building Code Council (SBCC). The SBCC adds amendments
that are specific to the State, and then the codes are adopted. Jurisdictions in the State are bound
to adopt the code. However, localities can amend the codes as long as the amendnients are more
restrictive than the International Code.
The City of Port Angeles amends the International Building and Fire Codes through the Port
Angeles Municipal Code (P AMC). As each new edition of the International Codes is
promulgated, the City routinely makes updates to the PAMC to reflect the new edition. Other
changes to the P AMC are also proposed at the same time.
F -1
.
City Council
Page 2
August 21, 2007
With the adoption of the 2006 edition of the International Building and Fire Codes, there are two
proposed P AMC changes:
Delete PAMC 18.08.110 D, which provides a rebate of $200 per unit for the installation
of sprinkler systems in multi-family buildings. This rebate was prQvided because the
sprinkler requirement was more restrictive than the International Code. The latest edition
of the International Code now requires these systems, so the rebate has become moot.
Additionally, 14.23.050 F should be deleted, which required fire alarm systems in group
"LC" occupancies. The State of Washington no longer classifies occupancies as group
"LC."
In addition to the above updates driven by changes in the International Codes, two additional
P AMC changes are proposed:
Modify PAMC 14.23.050 B, that required fire alarm systems in Group "B" and "E" .
occupancies used for educational purposes be monitored by PENCOM. Since the dorms
have been removed from Peninsula College, the requirement in "B" occupancies is no
longer needed. The remaining group "E" occupancies will be monitored through
approved fire alarm receiving centers.
Delete the provision in PAMC 18.08.110 A1, that provides a $500 rebate for the
installation of residential sprinkler systems in new homes (not including new
subdivisions) built outside the Fire Department 4 minute response time. This program has
never been funded and has only been us~d once in the past six years.

Lincoln Park Ponds Fishing Restrictions
Summary: The Pond at Lincoln Park contains sport fish and is stocked by the Washington State
Department ofFish & Wildlife (WDFW). PAMC 12.04.1351imits the age to fish to under 16:
however, the WDFW limits the age to less than 15. To be consistent, the PAMC needs to be
amended to include only persons who are less than 15 years of age.
Recommendation: Conduct a second reading and consider adoption of the attached
ordinance revising P AMC 12.04.135 Fishinl! in Lincoln Park Pond to: '.'Onlypersons who

the ponds at Lincoln Park and the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations.
P AMC 12.04.135 Fishing in Lincoln Park Pond. "No person above the age of sixteen years shall
fish in the ponds located in Lincoln Park." Washington Fish & Wildlife Sport Fish Pamphlet (page
66) designates Lincoln Park Ponds as ajuveni1e area and states, "juvenile anglers only (under 15
years old)."
No comments have been received from the public.
It is recommended that Council conduct a second reading and consider adoption of the attached
ordinance revising PAMC 12.04.135 Fishing in Lincoln Park Pond to: "Only persons who are less
than 15 years of age are permitted to fish in the ponds at Lincoln Park."

Lincoln Street Storm Sewer Connection Charge
Summary: The Lincoln Street Storm Water Project was completed in late 2006. It is proposed
to establish a connection fee in the amount of $7,293.00 per lot for new development that is
served by the project.
Recommendation: Conduct a first reading of the ordinance.
Background/Analysis: "A major storm sewer project to reduce combined sewer overflow events
and facilitate improved drainage was constructed on Lincoln Street. The work was completed in
late 2006 for a total cost of $748,832.44. This cost reflects permitting, design, and construction.
. It is customary to recover costs for a project that will specifically improve service in a defmed
area that facilitates development by constructing infrastructure than can be shared by others. The
City as well as developers may request reimbursement. Examples of this are the agreements in
place for the work performed by the Port Angeles Safeway and the Milwaukee Drive Trunk
Sanitary Sewer Ordinance:
Attached is an ordinance proposing'to establish a fee of $7,293 for each benefited lot for
connecting to the Lincoln Street storm sewer. The funds collected will be deposited into the
Storm Water Utility Fund. The beneficial service area is higWighted in Exhibit A.
It is recommended that a first reading of the attached ordinance be conducted this evening with a
second reading and adoption scheduled for September 4, 2007.

'To:
CITY COUNCIL
FROM:
SUE ROBERDS, PLANNING MANAGER
SUBJECT:
RACE STREET REZONE - REZ 07-01
BETWEEN 4TH STREET AND 7TH STREETS
. '.
Summary: Consideration of a request to rezone property from RS-7Residential Single Family and
RMD Residential Medium Density to CO Commercial Office.
Recommendation: Following the public hearing, Council should conduct a first reading of the
attached ordinance rezoning the subjectproperties to CO Commercial Office citing the findings
and conditions attached as Exhibit A to the ordinance.
Background: Following a public hearing conducted on August 8, 2007, the Planning Commission
moved to deny a proposed rezone of property that is zoned RS-7 andRMD to CO. The Commission's
recommendation is based on Comprehensive Plan references to the establishment of a crosstown route
and policies that are containe(i within the Plan for the development of such a traffic route. During
discussion, staff noted that while such a route is desired and anticipated, discussion for more than
twenty years has not resulted in official adoption of a route. While early thought was to continuing
Lauridsen Boulevard across White's Creek to Golf Course Road, discussion over the past ten years
focused the City's attempts in defining a crosstown route south of Lauridsen Boulevard to the
Bonneville Power Line area where more than adequate opportunities exist for a route that would
connect with a regional highway.' After well attended public hearings, it was determined that the
designation of a crosstown route north of Lauridsen Boulevard would not be feasible due to topography.
and existing development including Civic Field and the Dream Playground, and that the development
of such a route would put traffic right back in the First/Front Streets corridor. Such a plan would not
offer an alternative to travel.
Staff s recommendation to approve the rezone is based on the City Council's designationofthe .
subject area for commercial development and is identified as such on the City's Comprehensive Plan
and Land Use Map. The City Council amended the map to define the area as Commercial in 2006,
following a favorable recommendation from the Planning Commission. ill its action, the City
specifically amended the Land Use Map Commercial designation to be only two lots deep along Race
Street so it would not be possible to zone further into the adjacent residential neighborhoods.
The rezone application was submitted by Mr. and Mrs. George Cronin and Ms. Hong, who
together own seven of the fourteen parcels proposed for rezone. To avoid leaving pockets of property
zoned differently than others, staff recommended including the remaining properties not owned by the
applicants in the proposal. Two of the four remaining property owners asked to join in the rezone, two

did not respond, and one 0 bj ected to the proposal during the public hearing. In summary, four property
owners representing eleven of the fourteen properties are requ~sting the rezone. as .authorized by the
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map.
.. . . Staff s analysIs IS contained ill the Department's report that is included with this mernorandUm.
As noted inthe report, the CO zone is the City's most restrictive commercial zone and should result
in a corridor of mixed light office uses. Conditional uses that are permitted in the CO zone are similar
to those permitted in the RS-7 and RMD zones as well, with the one difference being hotel/motel uses.
It is unlikely that a hotel/motel use would locate in the corridor as the depth of the proposed zone is
only two lots deep which would not lend itself well to such development.

EXHIBIT A
Recommended Findings and Conclusions in Support of REZ 07-01
Findings:
1. An application for a rezone was submitted on June 12, 2007,pbyDave Neupert on behalf
of property owners Doug and Linda Cronin and Michele Hong for the rezone of
properties adjacent to Race Street between 4th Street and 7th Street to Commercial Office.
2. A letter from property owner Mark Kruse, who owns one of the properties, dated July 16,
2007, stating support for the action was received by the Department of Community and
Economic Development. A similar request was received by telephone from John Rigg,
522 Race Street, on July 17, 2007, and Ann Leinear on July 19,2007.
3. Notification of the proposed action was placed in the Peninsula Daily News on July 9,
. 2007, mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject property on July~, 2007,
and posted on the site on July 5, 2007. The written comment period for this application
closed on July 24,2007.
4. The City's Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map is intended as the guiding document in
establishing a conceptual framework for land use decisions. The Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map designates properties in the area as Commercial.
Uses in the area along Race Street corridor south of Erickson Park and Civic Field are
single family residential, duplex, multifamily residential, a nursing'home; business office,
and a church.
6. The proposed commercial zoning does not include the nursing home site or large
apartment complex.
7. The Comprehensive Plan was reviewed in its entirety with respect to the proposal. The
following elements, goals, and policies were found to be most relevant to the proposal:
Land Use Map Goal A and Policy 1, 2, and Objective 1; Goal D, Policy 1; Goal E, Policy
1 2, 3, 5, 7; Transportation Element Goal B, Policy 3, 7, 14, and Objective 1 and 4; and
Economic Development Element Goal A, Policy 4.
5.
8. The site is adjacent to Race Street, which is a principal arterial, bicycle route, and school
. wallcing route.
9. A rezone proposal cannot be considered a spot zone if it meets the following tests: 1) the
parcel ofland has not been singled ou(for special and privileged treatment; 2) the
singling out is in the public interest and not only for the benefit of the land owner; and 3)
the action is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
10. The SEP A Responsible Official issued a Determination of Non-Significance on July 24,
2007. -
I - 5
REZ 07-01 Council Memo
Page 2
.
11. Future development of the subject properties will require specific project review and may
include conditions to address issues such as access, parking, noise, lighting, and
landscaping.
.12. . The CO zone allows for avariety oflow impact commercial uses including business and
professional offices, medical and dental offices and laboratories, small animal veterinarY
offices? personal service facilities, and child day-care centers. Commercial Office uses
require laildscaping to buffer impacts to surrounding uses.
13. Low impact commercial uses are often used to buffer more intensive traffic corridors
from. single family residential uses.
Conclusions:
The proposal is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map.
. The rezone is compatible with the surrounding zoning and land uses and will allow
development of the area outside of the commercial corridor to be buffered by the
restricted commercial zone that allows for the continuation of developed single family
uses. The rezone will enable a low intensity commercial use that has been identified as
desired for the area by the City through its Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map
designation.
The City's action on rezone application REZ 07-01 is consistent with the established
procedures for amending the Zoning Code set forth in Section 17.96.100, Port Angeles
Municipal Code.
Municipal utilities in the area are adequate to supply power, water, communications, and
sewer for the low intensity commercial development anticipated in the CO zone in the
area.
S. Future development plans may require further improvement by the developer. As no
adverse impacts to neighboring streets are anticipated and street, walkway, parking, and
drainage may also be required with subsequent development, the proposed rezoneis in
the public interest.
6. The proposal will provide additional property for the development of commercial uses,
which is in the public interest.

REZONE APPLICATION - REZ 07-01 - HONG CRONIN. Portions of Race
Street between 4th and 7th Streets: Proposal to rezone property from Residential
Single Family (RS-7) and Residential Medium Density (RMD) to Commerial Office
(CO). i
Chair Beier noted that his mother lives in a residence that he owns in the area ofthe rezone
but believed he could act fairly on the application. Commissioner Johnson noted that he lives in an
adjacent area to the rezone and but felt he could act fairly on the matter. No one in the room
I
objected to either of the Commission members remaining for the proceeding.'
Associate Planner Scott Johm reviewed the DepartmeIj.t'sreport recommending-approval
of the rezone to Commercial Office. He responded to various questions from the Commission
regarding th~ City's Comprehensive Plan and commercial zone standards.
In response to Commissioner Kidd, Mr. Johns responded that the City does not have a
defined crosstown route.
In response to Commissioner Johnson, Planner Johns explained that the proposed rezoning
would not constitute a "commercial strip." The action would result in the combination oflots into
a low intensive commercial node that could act as a buffer between single family residential uses east
and west of the corridor and Race Street. He used the overhead projectOl; to identify that Eighth
Street to Seventh Street and mid block between 6th and 7th Stre~ts is zoned Commercial Office, 7th
Street to 6th Street (west side) is zoned Residential Single Family, 6th Street to the 5/6 Alley (west
side) is Residential Medium Density, and lots between the 5/6 Alley and 4th Street are zoned
Residential Single Family but are developed as single family residential or a nursing home. The
rezone would combine ZOI).es in the well traveled corridor intq a low intensive commercial node
rather than the spot design of zoning that currently exists. The rezone application was submitted
by property owners in the Race Street area following the City's change of designation of the corridor
on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map in 2006 that designated the corridor as commercial. All
but one property owner in the subject area has been contacted and are in favor of the rezone.
Chair Beier opened the public hearing. I
Dave Neupert, 403 South Peabody Street represented the applicants. The applicants have
no specific plans for their properties but are aware that the Con:i.rhercial Office zone ~llows only low
intensive office type and multiple family uses. They applied for the rezone following aredesignation
ofthe area commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map in 2006.
Janet Gouin, 823 East Sixth Street lives in the neighboring area and asked if accessory uses
had been considered in staffs analysis? Mr. Johns responded by specifically outlining, one for one,
what conditional uses are possible in the CO zone, and noted that the existing zones mainly allow
the same conditional uses with the one exception of motel apdhotel uses. He noted that any
proposed conditionally permitted use would only be approved :through the conditional use permit
process that requires a public hearing.
Sue Blair, 604 South Race Street lives in the propos'ed rezone area. Although she did
receive notification ofthe proposal, her family has been on vacation and this is the first she has heard
ofthe proposal. She stated that enough residential property has been gobbled up for commercial use.
Dan Gouin, 823 East Sixth Street noted two previous attempts that had been made to rezone
. ,
1-7
Planning Commission Minutes

Page 3
the area to commercial.
Planning Manager Sue Roberds was asked to provide a history of those attempts. She
stated that, since 1993, there have been attempts to redesignate and rezone the remaining residential
area between 7th Street and 4th Street to commercial as a result of the assortment of uses in the
corridor. In 1996, property between 6/7 Streets along the east side of Race Street was rezoned to
CO. In 2001, a rezone proposal to CO for the property directly west across Race Street from that
property was denied but the property was rezoned to RMD. In 2004, a proposal to redesignate the .
subject area to commercial was denied by the Council, while it had been recommended to be
approved by the Planning Commission, only because of the iridefinite boundary proposed by the
applicant. The applicant was directed to be more certain as to the boundaries of the proposal, and
Council left the door open for that reconsideration. In 2006, the area was redesignated as
commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map which then left the' door open to future
rezone proposals. The current proposal is made by the property owners of nine of the remaining
properties along the corridor. Until the public hearing, the City had not heard from 3 of the 7
affected property owners: 2 did not respond to letters, and the Blairs who expressed their objection.
Four (4) property owners of 11 properties expressed support for the proposal.
Dave Neupert reiterated that his clients are aware that the zone change being requested is the
most restrictive commercial zone in the City and that retail uses are not permitted.
Howard Blair, 604 South Race Street opposed a hotel/motel use along Race Street near his
residence. He believes that residential activity should be encouraged along the arterial corridor
leading to Hurricane Ridge. , .
Plannilig Manager Sue Roberds said that, given the limitation of two properties deep for
the proposed rezone area, it would not be possible to develop a large hotel/motel use in the CO zone.
The dens~typermitted in the CO zone is that ofthe RHD zone, and would therefore not be dissimilar
to neighboring properties ifhigh density residential use is desired for the properties. The only real
change would be the potential for low intensive commercial uses such as office use.
Chair Beier indicated that he needed more direction in the matter.
. Planner Johns noted that the Comprehensive Plan is the document that outlines the goals
and objectives of the City in its planning efforts and the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map is
a descriptive direction as to where particular zones will occur. Planners are to plan for those areas
to be developed as is described in the Map once it is adopted. He noted that the current Planning
Commission sent a recommendation to the City Council in 2006 to designate the subject corridor
as commercial on the Map, and the Council did agreed and changed the Map. Tlris rezone then
follows that direction. He noted that, in fact, the RMD zone, which is also found in the subject
corridor, allows for a higher density even than the CO zone. The only difference is found in the list
of conditionally permitted uses, which may only be developed following a public hearing process.
There being no further testimony, Chair Beier closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Kidd moved to deny the rezone as proposed. The motion was seconded
by Commissioner Harris. Planning Manager Roberds asked what [mdings would be cited in
support of the motion. Commissioners Kidd and Harris withdrew their motions.
Following deliberation, Commissioner Harris moved to deny the rezone as proposed
citing Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element Goal B, Policies 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 in
support of the action, and making one conclusions as follows:

3. The City should facilitate the development of a cross-town truck route with
improvements, which provide full access to SR 117 to and from US 101, and
improvements to the Lauridsen Boulevard Bridge over Peabody Creek and the
intersections of Lauridsen Boulevard at Race Str,eet and US 101.
The City should facilitate an additional route for local cross-town traffic along
Lauridsen Boulevard across White's Creek ultimately connecting with US 101.
In association with these two proposed cross-town routes the City should require
adequate mitigation measures to reduce any negative impacts on existing land uses,
including buffer areas, pedestrian sidewalks an~ crossings, bikeways, and reduced
speeds.
The City should facilitate the development of an alternate local cross-town route with
improvements, which provide full access at US 101 and SR 117 (the Tumwater
Truck Route). Iinprovements should be made: to the intersections of Lauridsen
Boulevard at Lincoln and Peabody Streets. Iinprovements should be made to the
Lauridsen Boulevard Bridge over Peabody Creek. Iinprovement should be made for

to and from the ferry landings, and along Front Street and Marine Drive and First
Street between US 101 and SR 117, as transportation facilities of state-wide
significance which are declared essential public facilities under the Growth

STAFF ANALYSIS
The application is for a rezone only, which addresses all potential land uses allowed
within that zone, and not approval for any specific, subsequent development that may be an
allowed land use according to the Zoning Code.
· The proposed area is between 5th and ih Streets, extending 100 feet west of the Race
Street right-of-way and between 4th and 6th Streets, also extending 100 feet to the east of the
Race Street right-of-way. The subject properties contain primarily single family dwellings, with
one parcel containing a church. A duplex and a small office complex are also located in the
corridor.
Race Street is classified as a principal arterial and is designated as part of the future,
crosstown truck route and alternate Highway 101 route. If approved, the proposal would extend
the commercial zoning along Race Street from 4th to 8th Streets, with the exception of the west
side of Race between 4th and 5th Streets, which would remain Single Family Residential RS-7.
Currently the area is zoned Residential, Single Family (RS-7), with two parcels located
north of 6th Street, south ofthe 5/6 alley on the west side of Race Street being zoned Residential,
MediumDensity (RMD). Adjacent zoning designations include primarily RS-7; with the area'
directly north of 4th Street (Civic Field and Erickson Playfield) zoned Public Buildings and Parks
(PBP), both sides of Race Street between 6th and ih Streets is zoned CO, and the area '
surrounding the 8th and Race Street intersection is zoned Commercial Neighborhood CN.
Twelve single family residences, on duplex, and one church exist on the affected parcels.
Adjacent uses include a nursing home located on the northwest comer of 5th and Race Streets,
and a commercial office building located on the southeast comer of 6th and Race Streets.
The Comprehensive Plan land use designation of the subjectproperty is Commercial.
The area proposed for the rezone was designated as commercial during the 2006 Comprehensive
Plan update, indicating the preferred land use pattern in the area as being commercial.
According to the Compreh,ensive Plan, this area is targeted to be commercial zoning within the
20-year planning period.
It is recognized that three Comprehensive Plan Policies conflict with the proposed rezone
as identified. However, the primary policy in detemlining appropriate zoning is the underlying
land use designation. As a point of disclosure those three conflicting policies are noted below.
Goal E, Policy No.2 - "New commerctal development should occur only where urban
services are adequate to accommodate them, These developments shouldfollow a cluster
configuration rather than' a strip pattern." By rezoning the area along Race Street to
Commercial Office the four block area between 4th Street and 8th Street will be a continuous
commercially zoned "strip". However, the commercial area will be constrained to those four
blocks and willnotbe extended due to the existence of the public parkareas at the north end.
The area south of 8th Street is not designated as commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land
Use Map and therefore limits potential conimercial expansion south of the 8th sj:reet intersection.
Both the intersections at 8th Street and at 5th Street are likely to develop as nodes 'due to the street
classification and existence of traffic signals. The commercial area can therefore be considered a
confmed cluster area. Urban services in this areas are adequate to accommodate the low
intensity commercial uses that are permitted in the CO zone.
Land Use Element Goal E, Policy No.5 states "Commercial development outside the
Highway 101 corridor should not be in a strip pattern". This policy may on the face appear to
be in conflict with the proposed rezone, however, if the Race Street corridor is to become an
alternate route for Highway 101 traffic, it would be within the Highway 101 corridor and this
policy would not then be in conflict with the rezone.

Land Use Element Goal E, Policy No.6 states "New commercial areas should not be
located along the alternate cross-town route or the cross-town truck route." The intent of the
word "areas" was used to imply comprehensive plan land use designations and not zones or uses.
As previously stated, the comprehensive plan Umd Use Map was amended in 2006 designating
this specific area as Commercial.
A majority of Comprehensive Plan Gmils, Policies, and Objectives do support the'
proposed rezone and are listed in Attachment B. In addition to the underlying land use
designation, 17 Comprehensive Plan Goals, Policies, and Objectives support the proposal.
The proposed zoning for the area is Commercial Office (CO). The CO zone "is a
commercial zone intended for those business, office, administrative or professional uses which
do not involve the retail sale of goods, but rather provide a service to clients, the provision of
which does not create high traffic volumes, involve extended hours of operation, or contain
impacts that would be detrimental to adjacent residential areas. Commercial uses that Q.re
largely devoid of any impacts detrimental to single family residential uses are allowed. This
zone provides the basic urban land use pattern for small lot, transitional uses between
residential neighborhoods and co;nmercial zones with direct access on an arterial street and
design standards coinpatible with residential development". It is anticipated that the CO zone
will allow for the development afloW mtensity commercial uses while maintai.nii1g elements of
the single family character of the area. Other areas in the city that are zoned CO remain a mix of
single family and office uses. ' The uses allowed in the CO zone are not anticipated to create
significant increases in traffic. Commercial uses allowed in the CO zone typically operate
during weekdays and do not operate into the evenings or on weekends. Rezoning the area to CO
would create only one nonconforming use in the area. , One duplex in the area, currently located
in the RMD zone, would require a conditional use permit to be expanded or reconstructed in the
CO zone.
The original application for a rezone included six (6) individual parcels. Seven (7)
additional parcels were included at the request of individual property owners after the
submission of the application and during the public comment period. Community and Economic
Development staff r,ecommended that the additional parcels be added to the original proposal for
a total of 10 parcels of the, 13 parcel subj ect area to provide a' consistent ~l11d continuous zone
rather than a checkerboard mix offollI different zones along a three block section of the arterial
street.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
There are no environnientally sensitive areas located on or adjacent to the subject
property. The City's State Envirom:i1ental Policy Act Responsible Official issued a
Determination of Non Significance for the proposal per WAC 197-11-355 on July 24,2007.

I
7. The Comprehensive Plan was reviewed in its entirety ~th respect to the proposal. The
following elements, goals, and policies were found to bf most relevant to the proposal:
Land Use Map Goal A and Policy 1,2, and Objective 1; Goal D, Policy 1; Goal E, Policy
12,3,5,. 7; Transportation Element Goal E, ~olicy 3, i, 14, and Objective 1 and 4; and

landscaping. I'
12. The CO zone allows for a variety oflow impact comm~rcialuses including business and
professional offices, medical and dental offices and labbratories, small animal veterinary
offices, personal service facilities, and child day-care centers. c;Olmnercial Office uses
require landscaping to buffer impacts to surrounding uses.
13. Low impact commercial uses are often used to buffer nioreintensive traffic corridors
from single family residential uses. I

Conclusions:
1. The proposal is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map.
2. The rezone is compatible with the surrounding zoning and land uses and will allow
developmentofthe' area outside of the commercial corridor to bebufferedpy the
restricted commercial zone that allows for the continuation of developed single family
llses. The rezone will enable a low intensity commercial use that has been identified as
desired for the area by the City through its Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map
. designation.
3. The City's action on rezone application REZ 07-01 is consistent with the established
procedures for amending the Zoning Code set forth in Section 17.96.100, Port Angeles
Municipal Code. .
4. Municipal utilities in the area are adequate to supply power, water, communications, and
sewer for the low intensity commercial development anticipated in the CO zone-ill the
area.
S. FutuTedevelopment plans may require further improvement by the developer. As no
adverse impacts to neighboring streets are anticipated and street, walkway, parking, and
drainage may also be required with subsequent development, the proposed rezone is in
the public interest.
6. The proposal will provide additional property for the development of commercial uses,
which is in the public interest.

providing maximum flexibility ta the City's Zoning Ordinance in regulating the types 'of
cammercial uses and their permitted lacations.
Goal A, Policy No.1 - liThe Camprehensive Plan Land Use Map should be used as a canceptual
guide far determining current and lang range zoning and ather land use decisions. The map's
land use designations are intended to show areas where general land use types are allawed. The
area between land use designations should be considered an imprecise margin in arder_ta
pravide flexibility in determining the baundary of such areas. When determining apprapriate
zoning designatiansfor an area near a margin, the gaals, palicies and objectives 'of the Land
Use Element should take precedence. II
Goal A, Policy No.2. - ''All land use decisions and approvals made by the City Cauncil and/ar
any of its appainted Cammissians, Baards or Cammittees shauld be cansistent with the
Camprehensive Plan and its land use map. II

are adequate to accommadate them. These developments shauld follow a cluster configuratian
rather than a strip pattern. "
Goal E, Policy No.3 - Commercial development should buffer its impacts on adjacent
residential uses. Where commercial develapment is adjacent ta residential uses, the cammercial
develapment shauld incarporate elements in the site design ta soften the impacts an the
residential uses.
Goal E, Policy No.5 - "Cammercial development outside the Highway 101 carridar should nat
be in a strip pattern ".
Goal E, Policy No.6 - "New commercial areas should nat be located along the alternate crass-
tawn raute or the cross-tawn truck raute." [Note: The intent of the word "areas" Was to imply
comprehensive plan land use designations and not zones or uses."]
Goal E, Policy No. 7 - district shapping areas should be lacated at the intersectians of arterial
streets of sufficient size ta satisfy traffic demand and at the baundaries of neighbarhaads sa that
mare than one neighborhoad may be served.

To: Members ofthe Port Angeles City Council I
Re: The proposed rezone of Race Street between 4th and 7th dtreets to Commercial Office
I
I
We, residents ofthe neighborhood that will be impacted by ~he proposed rezone of Race
Street between 4th Street and ih Street to Commercial Office i strongly oppose the change
for the following reasons: !
I
1. The representative for the applicants states that his clients have no current plans for
commercial development, making rezoning of the entire striB unnecessary and
undesirable at this time. In addition, there currently exists adequate empty local office
I
space for lease in Port Angeles. :
i
2. The proposed rezone would create a commercial strip th~t would extend the length of
Race Street from Caroline to 8th Street, (with the exception o'fCivic Field and Erickson
I
Playfield), with future plans, as stated by City Planner Scott ~ohns, to continue the rezone
south on Race Street. City Planner Johns also stated that thel City Comprehensive Plan
recommends against strip commercial development in favor .of cluster commercial
development. I
3. City Planner Johns says that the current zoning in the areJ under consideration is
"patchwork" and therefore should be unified. The great majprity of the properties under
consideration are currently zoned for single family dwelling~. In addition to the Port
Angeles Care Center, which is not zoned Commercial Offic~ and is not under
consideration for a rezone, there is one office building at 6th 'and Race, one small church,
one duplex, and a vacant lot. There are thirteen homes bet~een 4th and ih, including
two historic homes, one built in the 1890s and one built in 1912.
I
I
4. Race Street is the "gateway" to the Olympic National ParI,<. Visitors Center and
Hurricane Ridge and for this reason deserves special attenti6n if Port Angeles is indeed
committed to making our town attractive to tourists. Extending the commercial
development the entire length of Race Street will do nothing to enhance the route and, if
anything, will ultimately lead to deeper development than tHe currently proposed 100
feet. (Comprehensive plans do undergo revisions.) !
!
5. Planner Johns says none of the owners ofthe properties t9 be rezoned oppose the
rezone except one. However, they may be the only family to actually reside on their
property. The other properties under consideration are rentJI and/or investment
properties whose owners live elsewhere. We encourage the! members ofthe City Council
I
to take into consideration the residents ofthe area, many of 'us long time residents, and
our desire to preserve our neighborhood. !
6. The Commercial Office designation allows for a variety of permitted uses as well as a
number of conditional uses, many of which are unsuitable for the locale and which we
1

i
I
I
I
I
I
;
I. ak .
would hope never to see here. However, property owners so~etunes t e matters mto
their own hands, and their neighbors are left to deal with the results. Two properties in
the rezone area illustrate the problem. The duplex at 520 and 518 Race was initially
constructed to be a commercial business. The builder began fonstructing the two-story
building before his request for a commercial rezone was app~oved. When his request was
denied, he applied for and received a rezone to multiple fami~y occupancy, in spite of .
strong opposition and a petition signed by numerous resident:s ofthe neighborhood that
this request also be denied. Judging from the rapid turnover ,in renters and protracted
periods of vacancy, this property has not been a success, not ;only for its neighbors, but
for its various owners as well.
The second illustration is the property 616 Race, the extent df the development of which
does not show on the current map we received from the CitylPlanning Department. This
property, zoned for single family occupancy, contained a small house. The previous-
owner received permission from the City to build a large garage with a full second story
accessory "mother-in-law apartment". He then rented out vkious parts of his buildings
I
to as many as three separate rental entities, which negatively! impacted the neighbors to
the sides and rear of his properties. The current owner, one 6fthe applicants for the
rezone, is currently using the property as two separate rental~, in spite of its designation
for single family use. The City says there is nothing that cari be done about the
discrepancy between its single-family zoning and its multi-family use.
I
I
These are the sorts of problems we hope to avoid in the future and therefore strongly
oppose this sizeable rezone where neither of the applicants lias presented a specific
proposal for commercial development I

Impact Development Zone r
i
:
Summary: In support of the City's policies and Council directipn, staff has worked with the
Planning Commission to promulgate two overlay zones that promote developer interest and
provide new options to encourage development to a higher tharl normal standard. The overlay
zones are strictly optional and will not place any new requirem6nts on local development. The
zones incentivize development patterns and methods that furth6r the City's obligations relative
to the Department of Ecology's stormwater requirements and ~e State's Growth Management

Recommendation: After close of the public hearing, Council should commence with the
second reading and adopt the attached ordinances amendirig Title 17 of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code. ' :

At a public hearing held on August 7, 2007, the City Cou'ncil conducted the first reading of
the two attached ordinances. The Community and Economic De~elopment Depart:ri1ent has
developed the ordinances in order to continue to facilitate resporisible growth within the Cityof
Port Angeles. The Planning Commission unanimously resolved ito forward a recommendation of
approval for the proposed Planned Low Impact Development (PPD) zone and Infill Overlay Zone
(IOZ) on July 11,2007. Prior to Planning Commission consideration, the proposals were endorsed
at the June 21 st meeting of the City Council's Community and Etonomic Development
subcommittee. I
Following the public hearing on August 7, Council members raised concerns regarding
I
provisions and -incentives for attainable or workforce housing. With the assistance of the City
Attorney, staff has revised the proposed IOZ ordinance to incorPorate a definition of attainable
housing which replaces the original affordable housing definitiotr. The new definition allows
developers to provide their 30% attainable housing requirement up to 120% of the median income
J-5
and still receive the incentives offered in exchange for infill development. The change does not
preclude developers from providing housing at the previously defined affordable level.
The zones support innovative development scenarios and accommodate'recent demand for .
development options such as infill, low impact development, and deviation from standard lot
configurations. Additionally, both overlay zones are supported by housing goals and polices of the
City's Comprehensive Plan. Each overlay zone incorporates a trade-off providing community
benefits in exchange for flexibility in development. .
The IOZ provides a mechanism for flexible development through lot configuration and
density in exchange for attainable housing and fulfillment of the City's desired urban density. It
integrates smart growth principles induding pedestrian friendly and transit oriented development
as well as efficient use of infrastructure.
The PLID oveday zone encourages environmentally responsible developm~nt that reduces
stormwater runoff by minimizing impervious surfaces and by preserving natural site features. The
developer benefits through flexibility in lot size and configuration as well as the ability to utilize
alternatives to standard infrastructure requirements.
Staff is available to answer any questions.

17.44.010 - Purpose.
This Overlay Zone provides alternative zoning regulations that permit and encourage
design flexibility. It is intended that a Planned Low Impact Development (PLID) will result in.
a high quality residential deyelopment by use of a design process that includes site design.
components of a residential neighborhood consonant with the public health, safety. and welfare.
and results ina binding approyed site design. . .
A PLID is intended to manage stormwater through a land development strategy that .
emphasizes conservation and use of on-site natural features integrated with engineered. srriall-
scale hydrologic controls to more closely mimic predevelopment hydrologic conditions. It is
intended that techniques used will include minimizing impervious surfaces and effective
impervious surfaces and enc~uraging the creation or preservation of permanent forested open
space.
It is also intended that a PLID may combine a number of land use decisions such as .
critical areas protection. conditional use permits. rezones, and subdivisions into a single proiect
review process to encourage timely public hearings and decisions. The consolidaiiOri ofpeTInit
reviews does not exempt the applicant( s) from meeting the regulations and submitting the fees
and applications normally required for the underlying permit processes. . This overlay zone
provides an opportunity to create residential neighborhoods with a variety of housing chOIces
without following a standard system of public streets and lot design, and to develop residential
neighborhoods that are harmonious with on~site and off-site natural and built environments while
conserving natural conditions and features. and the use of appropriate new technologies. and
1echniques. APLID is intended to further the goals of the Comprehensive Land Use Planby the .
use of accepted new technologies and techniques, the conservation of natural conditions and.
features. and the efficient layout of streets, utility networks and other public improvements.

Low impact development site design is intended to mImIC the predevelopment
hydrologic conditions on the site. The development context shall be established bv an initial site
assessment consistent with the requirements of Section 17.44.160 P AMC. The initial inventory
and assessment process will provide the baseline information necessary to design strategies that
preserve natural resources, preserve area s most appropriate to evaporate, transpire, and infiltrate
stormwater, and achieve the goal of maintaining pre-development natural hvdrologic conditions
on the site. The assessment will result in a series of maps identifying streams, lakes, wetlands,
buffers, steep slopes, and other hazard areas, significant wildlife habitat areas, and permeable
soils offering the best available infiltration potentiaL Maps can be combined as hard copies or
as GIS lavers to delineate the best areas to locate development. Those areas designated most
appropriate Jor development. which will contain all impervious surfaces and landscaped areas
on the site, should be configured to minimize soil and vegetation disturbance, buffer critical
areas~ and take advantage of a site's natural stormwater processing capabilities. Designated
development area boundaries shall be delineated on site plans and identified on the site during
site preparation and construction. Areas outside of the designated development area envelope
shall be designated Protected Native Growth Areas or reserve areas.

17.45.010 - purpose. .
This Overlay Zone is designed to provide alternative zoning regulations that permit and
encourage design flexibility through the implementation of smart growth practices to promote
infilL maximum density. attainable housing. and functional innovation in deyelopments that are
both transit and pedestrian oriented and which blend into the character of the existing
neighborhoods. It is intended that an 1nfill Overlay Zone (1OZ) will result in a residential
environment ofhigher quality than traditionallot-by-lot development by use of a design process
that includes within the site design all the components of an urban residential environment. such
as walkability. access to transit. and a variety of building types. in a manner consonant with the
public health. safety. and welfare and results in a specifically approyed site Cdesign.
10Z's are aimed to implement smart growth practices on infill or redevelopment sites that
are surrounded by existing deyelopment and infrastructure. It is also intended thatan 10Z may
combine a number of land use decisions such as conditional use' permits. rezones. and
subdivisions into a single proiect review process to encourage timely public nearings and
decisions and to provide for attainable higher densities than is required or may be permitted
between single family and multi-family zones. The consolidation ofpermitreyiews does not
exempt applicant(s) from meeting the regulations and submitting the fees and applications
normally required for the underlying permit processes.
Few nonresidential uses are allowed in this overlay zone and then only conditionally.
because ofland use impacts associated with nonresidential uses. Incorporation of conditionally
permitted commercial neighborhood uses and mixed use developments can be achieved through
the 10Z review. This overlay zone provides for the creation of infill developments and smaller
self contained residential neighborhoods that complement the existing neighborhood without .
following a standard system of public streets and lot design and with opportunities for residential
and commercial neighborhood developments not usually permitted in residential zones.
17.45.011 Definitions.
A. Attainable Housing: Residential housing available for sale or rent that requires
a monthly housing cost. including utilities other than telephone. of no more than thirty percent
of the net income of an eligible household. For purposes of the preceding sentence. an eligible
household is one with a total net household income no greater than 120% of the Clallam County
median income as reported by the Washington State Office of Financial MaJ1agernent.
B. Infill Overlav Zone (1OZ): A site specific development that has been' approved
by the City Council under the provisions of Chapter 17.45 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code.
C. Neighborhood Density: The number of dwelling units per gross acre allowed by
zone or zones.
17.45.020 - Applicability.
10Zs may be established. subiect to final approval of a proposal for a specific parcel or
parcels of land in the RHD. RMD and RS-7 residential districts. An 10Z shall contain a
minimum of21.000 square feet but shall be limited to less than 3.44 acres in size with densities
permitted per the underlying zone or zones per 17.45.060. The site shall be composed of
contiguous lots or parcels. Minimum lot area may not be achieved by including areas included
in property that has been part of a subdivision finaled in the preceding 5 years. Conditionally
approved commercial neighborhood uses shall be limited to 10Z developments greater than 1
acre in size. All 10Zs shall consist of a development that is primarily residential in nature. .

The approval of an 10Z may include modifications to the requirements and standards of
the underlying land use regulations of the zone in which the proi ect is located subi ect to the .
limitations of this Chapter. No approval shall include a modification, variance, or waiver of the
exterior setback areas required by the underlying zone along the exterior prope1iVlines of the.
10Z, or ofthe requirements of the Shoreline Master Program except as provided in Chapter 173~

CITY COUNCIL MEMO
August 21, 2007
Electric Rate Adjustments - Presentation and Public Hearing
Summary: HDR Engineering, Inc. and City staff completed a comprehensive rate study in 2005
for the Electric Utility. This year's update to the study was presented to the Utility Advisory
Committee including a 5.9% overall retail rate adjustment, which is necessary at this time to
maintain the fund in a fmancially prudent position.
As a result oflast year's update to the rate study, there were no retail rate adjustments
recommended in 2006.
Based on this year's rate study a 5.9% overall retail rate adjustment is necessary beginning
October 1, 2007. The rate adjustment is needed for the following main reasons: budgeted
residential rate revenues are not being realized mainly due to a warm winter; rebuilding financial
reserves is necessary; additional capital costs are being incurred for extending services to new
customers; new operating lease expenses will be incurred for light operations; increases are
anticipated in personnel expenses (cost of living adjustments, retirement system contributions,
medical/dental); and to cover inflation of other expenses since 2005. It will be necessary to adjust
retail electric rates at this time to maintain the fund in a financially prudent position.
The BP A will announce in September whether a wholesale power rate increase will be made
during their next fiscal year (October 2007 through September 2008). Preliminary indications are
that a wholesale power rate increase may not be needed, which was assumed in this year's update
to the rate study. There are no BPA wholesale transmission rate increases anticipated. lfthe

Re: Electric Rate Adjustments
Page 2
actual BP A wholesale rate adjustment is different than the assumptions included in the study it will
be necessary to update proposed retail rates before adoption of the ordinance. In addition, no
reductions in wholesale power costs were assumed in anticipation of a favorable settlement of the
ongoing residential exchange program litigation.
Following a presentation of the study and proposed rate adjustments City Council should open the
public hearing to allow public input. The public hearing will be continued to September 4, 2007 at
which time the public hearing will be closed. City Council will be requested to consider adoption
of a new rate ordinance at the September 4, 2007 City Council meeting, once final BP A wholesale
power rates are known. C
On August 14, 2007, the Utility Advisory Committee forwarded a favorable recommendation to
City Council to proceed with a public hearing on the rate study and the proposed rate adjustments.

Stormwater Rate Adjustments
Director Cutler introduced Deputy Director of Engineering Services Sperr and
Stormwater Engineer Roberts, who will be giving the presentation. He reminded the
Council that this will be the first reading of the Ordinance and stated there will be a
Utility Advisory Committee meeting before the next Council meeting, should issues need
to be referred back.
City Engineer Sperr used PowerPoint slides to demonstrate the need for the rate increase
in stormwater rates. He reviewed the history of the stormwater utility, explaining that
the utility was formed in order to fund capital projects. Successful projects to day include
Crown Park stormwater improvements and Lincoln Street storm sewer construction. Mr.
Sperr then deferred to Ms. Roberts.
Ms. Roberts described the NPDES Phase, II, and displayed a map which designated
impaired and sensitive waters. She explained the goal of the Stormwater Management

Program is to reduce the discharge of pollutants and protect water quality. Ms. Roberts
enumerated the six minimum control measures and the major permit requirements which
include a public education program, enhanced permitting, and planning for expanded
water quality monitoring among others. She explained that capital facilities planning is
a balancing act, with construction costs outpacing inflation. Ms. Roberts described steps
taken to date to achieve proper stormwater maintenance and operations and discussed the
grant received from the Department of Ecology to help the City achieve its water quality
goals.
Deputy Director Sperr concluded by providing information regarding steps that wiIl need
to be taken in the future, budget development, which includes a rebate program
beginning in 2009, and the current revenue and rate structure as we!l as the recommended
rate adjustment.
Mr. Sperr responded to questions posed by the Council, providing additional information
and clarification. Lengthy discussion followed on the issue of fairness, with residents
bearing the burden of the rate increase and whether commercial rates shou@ be revisited,
especially as they relate to the cap on ERUs.
Mayor Rogers noted that many of the larger commercial businesses have onsite
aC,commodations for stormwater treatment as required by Building Code and permit.
Therefore, it is difficult to have straight across rates for commerci~l enterprises, as some
commercial entities would be unduly burdened with a double expense.
. .
At Council's request, discussion was held regarding the County and Federal government's
part in monitoring stormwater, as the City has no control over what comes down from the
creeks and into the City's stormwater system. Discussions have been held with the
County and National Park staff inviting them to be part' of the stormwater shed. Both
entities declined the invitation to participate even though 62% ofthe watershed is in the
County and 12% is the National Park. However, discussion is ongoing and positive at
this time.
Questions arose regarding monitoring stations to determine the quality of water as it
'enters the City limits. Manager Madsen announced that Ed Chadd from Streamkeepers
was prese~t in the audience, who may be able to address this issue.
Engineer Roberts stated discussions have been held with Strearnkeepers regarding
refining the monitoring plan.
Following further discussion, in keeping with the requirement for a first reading of the
Ordinance, Mayor Rogers read the Ordinance by title, entitled

.
Ed Chadd, 307 W. 6th St., was glad to see the program moving along and projects being
accomplished. He supported increasing the stormwater rates to $6.00 per month per
equivalent residential unit (ERU), but did ask several questions, regarding ERUs,
incentives, how many commercial businesses are larger than the cap of 10 ERUs and
others. Director Cutler asked for time to research some of the questions in order to
provide defmitive answers. Mr. Chadd was invited to meet with staff at his convenience' .
to further discuss the issue.

Cherie Kidd, 101 E. lOth St., spoke in support of the incentives program and asked the
Council to remember that many citizens are elderly and on low incomes and this rate
increase will be difficult for them.
Peter Ripley, 114 E. 6th St., # 102, asked if this was part of the water utility, which it is
not, and asked if the citizens had been promised these rates would never be raised, which
they weren't.
Paul Lamoureux; 602 Whidby, echoed Ms. Kidd's concerns for those on fixed low
incomes and asked for reconsideration of the method of calculating new rates and to
eliminate the cap on commercial properties.
Ed Chadd, returned to the podium to state that he felt that the average impact of total
impervious surface of most residential lots was less than 4,000 square feet, which is the
number used in rate calculations. He felt an ERU of 3,000 square feet would be more
equitable.

CITY COUNCIL
TERRY K. GALLAGHER, ACTING CHIEF OF POLIC:t@
2007 - 2008 SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER - RENEWAL OF EXISTING AGREEMENT
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Summary: In 1998 the Police Department, in partnership with the School District, established the
School Resource Officer (SRO) program. Since that time, a uniformed police officer has been
assigned full-time to Port Angeles High School with ancillary duties at other area s~hools. The
School District has fmancially supported the program since its inception. Dr. Gary Cohn, School
Superintendent, has signed the agreement between the City and the School District for the2007-
2008 school year. The School District's contribution to the SRO program's overall costs is
$23,000.00, the same as last year. The SRO agreement, as presented, is identical to the agreements
of previous years with the exception of date amendments to reflect the 2007~2008 school year.
Recommendation: Authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement renewal between the City of Port
Angeles and Port Angeles School District # 121 to allow for the continuance of the School
Resource Officer program.
Background/Analysis:
The Police Department and the School District are in agreement that the School Resource Officer
program (SRO) has been highly successful. Much ofthe success :ofthe program can be attributed
to the dedication and commitment of the staffs of both organizations to the maintenance of a safe
learning environment in our area schools.
Port Angeles High School is located in a residential neighborhood and, at anyone time during the
school year, has approximately 1,600 students and faculty on campus. While somewhat novel in
1998, the year the SRO program was inaugurated, the presence of a uniformed officer on campus
and at other school events, has come to be expected and is appreciated by teachers, students,
parents, school support staff, and those living in close proximity to the school. Officer Tom Kuch,
the current SRO, works with parents, staff, and students on a daily basis. He attends many evening
and weekend school functions such as dances and sporting events. Officer Kuch is also a
contributing member at school staff meetings and actively involved with the Safe Schools
Committee. The SRO program's primary goal is to assist in maintaining a safe and secure school
campus where learning can be emphasized and fear of crime is not an issue. Since 1998 the SRO
program has, by all reports, been successful in meeting that goal.

CFL Markdown Promotion Agreement Revision
Summary: The City was offered a revision to the "Change a Light, Change the W orId" specialty
compact fluorescent lamp markdown promotion agreement by Portland Energy Conservation, Inc.
All City expenses under the agreement are eligible for reimbursement under the Bonneville Power
Administration's Conservation Rate Credit pro gram.
Recommendation: Authorize the Public Works and Utilities Director to sign the revision to
the CFL Markdown Promotion Agreement.
Background/Analysis: The City participated in the 2007 "Change a Light, Change the World"
Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) Markdown Promotion. City utility customers purchased an
estimated 3,400 CFLs during the 2007 "Change a Light, Change the World" promotion that ended
June 30, 2007. Portland En~rgy Conservation, Inc. recently offe~ed the City a revision to the
"Change a Light, Change the W orId" Markdown Promotion Agreement. The proposed revision
offers the City participation in a 200f-2008 "Change a Light, Change the World" specialty CFL
markdown promotion at local retail outlets.
The term of the proposed agreement revision is eight months and is anticipated to result in City
payment of up to $10,000 to Portland Energy Conservation, Inc. City payments to Portland
Energy Conservation, Inc. will be used to markdown prices at local retailers, which will ultimately
reduce the cost of specialty compact fluorescent lamps purchased by Port Angeles e'lectric utility
customers. All City expenses under the proposed agreement revision are eligible for
reimbursement under the Bonneville Power Administration's Conservation Rate Credit program.
On August 14, 2007 the Utility Advisory Committee forwarded a favorable recommendation to

Surplus Timber at Lincoln Park - Set Public Hearing
Summary: Approximately 200 trees at the west end of Lincoln Park have been identified as
obstructions that impede the safe use of Fairchild Airport runways and must be removed. The
anticipated timber value requires a public hearing before the trees can be considered surplus.
Recommendation: Set a public hearing for September 4, 2007 to receive comment on
declaring the timber as surplus.
Background/Analysis: Under Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Regulations, obstructions
including, but not limited to, trees that impede the safe use of an airport's runways must be
removed. A significant number of trees have been identified that should be removed to ensure that
additional air operations restrictions are not imposed upon Fairchild Airport. These obstructions
penetrate the FAA departure and approach glide slopes.
Some of the trees identified for removal are located in the west end of Lincoln Park. There are
approximately 200 trees that penetrate the east end glide slope. The trees are dispersed within a
larger stand of trees.
At tonight's meeting, it is requested that the City Council set the public hearing date to be
September 4, 2007 to obtain public input on declaring the identified trees at Lincoln Park surplus.

TREE REMOVAL SAFETY PROJECT AT LINCOLN PARK
To improve air safety at William Fairchild International Airport, approximately 200 trees will be
removed from Lincoln Park in a joint safety project between the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA), the Port of Port Angeles and the City of Port Angeles.
Trees predominately located in the western section ofthe park have grown so tall that they pose safety
concerns for aircraft landing at the airport as they approach from the east. The removal process will
start with the Port of Port Angeles and City of Port Angeles identifying the specific trees to be removed.
The Port will arrange and pay for the removal of the specified trees and grinding the stumps to 12 inches
below grade level. The areas will be filled with soil and seeded in the area where the trees were
removed. The Port will fund the removal of the trees, grinding of the stumps and arrange for the
transport of the timber to a mill. The City will be financially compensated for the removed trees.
City Council approved this project in November of2006. The Port of Port Angeles is in the process of
securing the necessary permits for the project. The project is expected to take place in mid-September
and last for approximately 2 weeks. It may be necessary to close limited portions of Lincoln Park for
public safety concerns during the duration of the project. Advance public notice will be given to
ensure there is minimal disruption.

PUBLIC HEARINGS:
REZONE APPLICATION - REZ 07-01 - HONG CRONIN. Portions of Race
Street between 4th and 7th Streets: Proposal to .rezone property from Residential
Single Family (RS-7) andResidential Medium Density (RMD) to Commerial Office
(CO).
Chair Beier noted that his mother lives in a residence that he owns in the area ofthe rezone
but believed he could act fairly on the application. Commissioner Johnson noted thf:lt he lives in an
adjacent area to the rezone and but felt he could act fairly on the matter. No one in the.room
objected to either of the Commission members remaining fotthe proceeding.
Associate Planner Scott Johns reviewed the Department's report recommending approval
of the rezone to Commercial Office. He responded to various questions from the Commission
regarding the City's Comprehensive Plan and commercial zone standards.
ill response to Commissioner Kidd, Mr. Johns responded that the City .does not have a
defined crosstown route.
ill response to Commissioner Johnson, Planner Johns explained that the proposed rezoning
would not constitute a "commercial strip." The action would result in the combination oflotsinto
a low intensive commercial node that could act as a buffer between single family residential uses east
and west of the corridor and Race Street. He used the overhead projector to identify that Eighth

Street to Seventh Street and mid block between 6th and 7th Streets is zoned Commercial Office, 7th
Street to 6th Street (west side) is zoned Residential Single Family, 6th Street to the 5/6 Alley (west
side) is Residential Medium Density, and lots between the 5/6 Alley and 4th Street are zoned
Residential Single Family but are developed as single family residential or a nursing home. The
rezone would combine zones in the well traveled corridor into a low intensive commercial node
rather than the spot design of zoning that currently exists. The rezone application was submitted
by property owners in the Race Street area following the City's change of designation of the corridor .
on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map in 2006 that designated the corridor as commercial. All
but one property owner in the subject area has been contacted and are in favor of the rezone.
Chair Beier opened the public hearing.
Dave Neupert, 403 South Peabody Street represented the applicants. The applicants have
no specific plans for their properties but are aware that the Commercial Office zone allows only low
intensive office type and multiple family uses. They applied for the rezone following a redesignation
of the area commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map in 2006.
Janet Gouin, 823 East Sixth Street lives in the neighboring area and asked if accessory uses
had been considered in staff s analysis? Mr. J ohus responded by specifically outlining, one for one,
what conditional uses are possible in the CO zone, and noted that the existing zones mainly allow
the same conditional uses with the one exception of motel and hotel uses. He noted that any
proposed conditionally permitted use would only be approved through the conditional use permit
process that requires a public hearing.
Sue Blair, 604 South Race Street lives in the proposed rezone area. Although she did
receive notification of the proposal, her family has been on vacation and this is the first she has heard
ofthe proposal. She stated that enough residential property has been gobbled up for commercial use.
~ -
Dan Gouin, 823 East Sixth Street noted two previous attempts that had been made to rezone
the area to corru:nercial.
Planning Manager Sue Roberds was asked to provide a history of those attempts. She
stated that, since 1993, there have been attempts to redesignate and rezone the remaining residential
area between 7th Street and 4th Street to commercial as a result of the assortment of uses in the
corridor. In 1996, property between 6/7 Streets along the east side of Race Street was rezoned to
CO. In 2001, a rezone proposal to CO for the property directly west across Race Street from that
property was denied but the property was rezoned to RMD. In 2004, a proposal to redesignate the
subj ect area to commercial was denied by the Council, while it had been recOIpmended to be
approved by the Planning Commission, only because of the indefinite boundary proposed by the
applicant. Theapplicant was directed to be more certain as to the boundaries of the proposal, and
Council left the door open for that reconsideration. In 2006, the area was redesignated as
commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map which then left the door open to future
rezone proposals. The current proposal is made by the property owners of nine of the remaining
properties along the corridor. Until the public hearing, the City had not heard. from 3 of the 7
affected property owners: 2 did not respond to letters, and the Blairs who expressed their objection.
Four (4) property owners of 11 properties expressed support for the proposaL
Dave Neupert reiterated that his clients are aware that the zone change being requested is the
most restrictive commercial zone in the City and that retail uses are not permitted.
Howard Blair, 604 South Race Street opposed a hotel/motel use along Race Street near his
residence. He believes that residential activity should be encouraged along the arterial corridor

leading to Hurricane Ridge.
Planning Manager Sue Roberds said that, given the limitation of two properties deep for
the proposed rezone area, it would not be possible to develop a large hotel/motel use inJhe CO zone.
The density permitted in the CO zone is that of the RHD zone, and would therefore not be dissimilar
to neighboring properties ifhigh density residential use is desired for the properties. The only real
change would be the potential for low intensive commercial useS such as office use.
Chair Beier indicated that he needed more direction in the matter.
Planner Johns noted that the Comprehensive Plan is the document that outlines the goals
and objectives of the City in its planning efforts and the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map is
a descriptive direction as to where particular zones will occur. Planners are to plan for those areas
to be developed as is described in the Map once it is adopted. He noted that the cUrrent Planning
Commission sent a recommendation to the City Council in 2006 to designate the subject corridor
as commercial on the Map, and the Council did agreed and changed the Map. This rezone then
follows that direction. He noted that, in fact, the RMD zone, which is also found in the subj ect
corridor, allows for a higher density even than the CO zone. The only difference is found in the list
of conditionally permitted uses, which may only be developed following a public hearing process.
There being no further testimony, Chair Beier closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Kidd moved to deny the rezone as proposed. The motion was seconded
by Commissioner Harris. Planning Manager Roberds asked what findings would be cited in
support of the motion. Commissioners Kidd and Harris withdrew their motions.
Following deliberation, Commissioner Harris moved to deny t~e rezQne as proposed
citing Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element Goal B, Policies 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 in
support of the action, and making one conclusions as follows:
Findings:
Goal
B. To improve circulation patte~s across and within the community, and to achieve the desired
urban design of the City.
Policies
2 The City should divertcross-tovm truck traffic around the downtown area.
3. The City should facilitate the development. of a cross-town truck route with
improvements, which provide full access to SR 117 to and from US 101, and
improvements to the Lauridsen Boulevard Bridge over Peabody Creek and the
intersections of Lauridsen Boulevard at Race Street and US 101.
The City should facilitate an additional route for local cross-town traffic along
Lauridsen Boulevard across White's Creek ultimately connecting with US 101.
In association with these two proposed cross-town routes the City should require
adequate mitigation measures to reduce any negative impacts on existing land uses,
inclu~g buffer areas, pedestrian sidewalks and crossings, bikeways, and reduced
speeds.
The City should facilitate the development of an alternate local cross-town route with
improvements, which provide full access at US 101 and SR 117 (the Tumwater

Truck Route). Improvements should be made to the intersections of Lauridsen
Boulevard at Lincoln and Peabody Streets. Improvements should be made to the
Lauridsen Boulevard Bridge over Peabody Creek Improvement should be made for
the development of a crossing over White's Creek. The City should revise its
development regulations as necessary to preserve the right-of-way within an
identified US 101 corridor.
8. The City should coordinate with the State Department of Transportation, Clallam
County, and the Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization
transportation planning efforts. This includes recognition of US 101 and SR 117,
along with connecting roadways of Front, Lincoln, Railroad, Oak, and First Streets
to and from the ferry landings, and along Front Street and Marine Drive and First
Street between US 101 and SR 117, as transportation facilities of state-wide
significance which are declared essential public facilities under the Growth
management Act. Review of potential impacts to these facilities aIld LOS standards
will be incorporated with future updates to the City's Comprehensive Plan, as
required by the Act.
10. The City should complete the arterial circulation system for wests ide development.
Conclusions:
1. The proposal is not in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
2. The proposal is not generally in the public interest.
Commissioner Kidd seconded the motion, which passed 6-0.
Planner Roberds noted that this item would come before the City Council for a public hearing
on August 21, 2007, 7 p.m:
SHORELINE SUBSTANTIAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT - SMA 07-04 - THE
LANDING. 115 East Railroad Avenue: Proposal to construct exterior additions for
public access and viewing, reconstruction of a pier and building located on the pier
in the shoreline area.
Chair Beier noted for the record that he 'has a business relationship with the proponents but
that he believed he could act fairly on the application. No one in the room objected to his remaining
for the deliberation. At staffs request, Chair Beier called a five minute recess. Themeeting
reconvened at 7:30 p.m.
Associate Plattner Scott Johns reviewed the Department's report recommending approval
of the application with conditions. ill responding to a question from the Commission with regard
to the proposed replacement or repair of the pier piling, Mr. Johns stated that he was not certain of
the preferred method of repair as those activities would fall under the purview of the Army Corps
of Engineers and the Department ofFish and Wildlife.
Chair Beier opened the public hearing.
Mark Craig, 32933 SE 33rd Street, Fall City, Washington represented the applicant and
noted his experience in marina purchases and similar development arid redevelopment over the past
15 years. He believes that the current plans will enhance the public's enjoyment of the waterfront

area and will be beneficial to both tourists and locals alike. Th~ project will be developed in two
phases: Phase I will involve a rebuild of the entryway and the addition of a viewing tower similar
to the Municipal Pier and the construction of walkways for tenants and visitors around the perimeter
but will not expand the existing footprint; Phase II will improve:the dock and provide moorage for
large vessels, improve pedestrian access, provide a public fishing area, and provide a float plane
access for seasonal use April to September.
In response to a question from Commissioner Beier as t6 timing, Mr. Craig responded that
it is hoped to complete the project by mid summer 2008. In response to Commissioner Kidd, Mr.
Craig stated that it is hoped to be able to moor vessels from 120' ~o 125' in length at a floating dock.
Commissioner Kidd noted that it what is needed for Port Angel~s. Mr. Craig responded to Planner
Johns that the floating dock would be stored elsewhere for the winter season.
Doug Timmons, 814 Milwaukee is acquainted with Mr.~ Cronauer and believes the visions
expressed in the proposal are dynamite. He supported the application.
Cominissioner Kidd congratulated Mr. Craig on the vision provided in the application and
stated that the activity is exactly what is needed for the waterfront.
Chair Beier closed the public hearing.
