17.10.010 -Purpose.
This is a low density residential zone intended to create and preserve urban single-family residential
neighborhoods consisting of predominantly single-family homes on standard townsite-size lots. Uses
which are compatible with and functionally related to a single-family residential environment may also
be located in this zone. Because of land use impacts associated with nonresidential uses, few
23
nonresidential uses are allowed in this zone and then only conditionally. This zone provides the basic
urban land use pattern for the City's single-family residential neighborhoods, following a standard
rectangular street grid system of 60-foot rights-of-way for local access streets and 300-foot by 450 or
500-foot blocks with 0_foot by 140-foot lots and usually located in areas that are largely developed and
closer to the center of the City.

CHAPTER 17,45 - IOZ - INFILL OVERLAY ZONE
17.45.010 _ Purpose.
The Infill Overlay Zana1�_OZ) 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 developments that are both transit and pedestrian oriented and which blend into
the character of the existing neighborhoods. It is intended that an Infill Overlay-Zoae-(IOZ)will
result in a residential environment of higher quality than traditional lot-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
approved, site design.
IOZ's arc aimed to implement smart growth practices on infill or redevelopment sites that are
surrounded by existing development and infrastructure. It is also intended that an IOZ may
combine a number of land use decisions such as conditional use permits, rezones, and
subdivisions into a single project review process to encourage timely public hearings 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 of permit reviews 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 of
Land use impacts associated with nonresidential uses. Incorporation of conditionally permitted
commercial neighborhood uses and mixed use developments can be achieved through the IOZ
74
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.

The approval of an IOZ may include modifications to the requirements and standards of the
underlying land use regulations of the zone in which the project is located subject to the
limitations of this chapter. No approval shall include a modification, variance, or waiver of the
exterior- ack areas required by the underlying zone along the exterior property lines of the

IT45.050 - Design and Development Standards.
The following standards shall apply to all IOZs:
A. All street and utility improvements shall be constructed to standards specified by the City
...;A+U� -1
of Port Angeles. Stfeet widths mayvafy fm— ..-ired, in the subdiYision fegulatiofts,
and linterior streets may be either public or private. Streets intended to be dedicated to the City
must meet minimum street desigp standards set forth in the City of Port Angeles Urban Standards
And Guidelines Manual, with exception to minimum street widths. Street widths may vary from
widths required if they achieve the goals of the IOZ. All reauests for variations to street widths
must obtain approval by the Cit v Enginee[.. In suitable locations, common parking areas may
suffice without the provision of interior streets. On—site Off-street parking requirements should
be consistent with Title 14 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code.
B. All IOZs shall devote at least-30 20 percent of residential units to attainable housing.
C. All IOZs shall provide for a mechanism to ensure that attainable housing remains
attainable in perpetuity. Such mechanism shall be approved by the Director of Community and
Economic Development and be stipulated on the final plat.
D. Common parking and landscaped areas shall be maintained as an integral part of the site
and may not be segregated as a separate parcel or parcels unless such parcels are to be owned by
a homeowner's association.
E. All IOZs shall provide for continuous and perpetual maintenance of common open space,
common recreation facilities, private roads, utilities, parking areas, and other similar
development within the boundaries of the IOZ in form and manner acceptable to the City.
F. All IOZs shall ensure that proposed structures blend into the residential character of the
surrounding neighborhood. Multi-family uses in a predominately single-family neighborhood
should simulate a single-family residence in appearance.
G. Platting shall be required for all projects that involve or contemplate the subdivision of
land. Lots in a platted IOZ may be sold to separate owners. No further subdivision of land within
the IOZ will be permitted unless a formal amendment to the IOZ is approved.
H. Conditional use permits shall be required for all projects that involve or contemplate
conditional uses that may be allowed in the underlying zone(s). In addition to the conditional
uses allowed in the underlying zone(s), commercial neighborhood uses(as permitted per section
17.21.040 PANIC) may be considered for conditional use permit(s) during the IOZ approval
76
process. No further conditional use permits except home occupations will be permitted within
the IOZ unless a formal amendment to the IOZ is approved.
1. For any underlying land use regulatory process that is consolidated through the IOZ
overlay process,the criteria and development standards of that underlying land use process shall
be met. Any subsequent land use decision made pursuant to an underlying land use regulatory
process shall also require a formal amendment to the IOZ.
J. To encourage design flexibility,maximum density,and innovations that result in a higher
quality residential environment than traditional subdivisions, site planning and architectural
review that address specific criteria are required of all development in the IOZ. Where
applicable, the design of IOZs shall accomplish the following to the greatest extent possible:
I. Maximize the urban density of the underlying zone,;
2. Provide affordable housing and attainable housing that complements the surrounding
residential environment;
3. Provide a walkable, active, and transit oriented environment including, but not limited
to, bicycle or pedestrian paths, proximity to public transit, children's play areas, and common
open space areas;
4. Preserve scenic view corridors,both internal and external to the site; and
5. Ensure Tthe design of all open space areas and building structures shall be compatible
with and complementary to the environment in which they are placed.
K. All IOZs shall comply with the goals and policies of the Port Angeles Comprehensive '
Plan.
17.45.060 - Density.
Every IOZ shall be allowed the density of the underlying zone or zones in which the site is
located and a bonus of two additional units per acre on the portions of the site exclusive of
environmentally sensitive areas. Where possible maximum density of the underlying zone shall
be attained. All IOZs shall exceed the minimum density per Table 17.45.060A. Density credits
for environmentally sensitive areas protected by Title 15 PANIC shall be allowed in addition to
the base density calculated for the buildable area of the site per subsection 15.20.070.17 and
subsection 15.24.070.F.
