Thank you Mayor Downie and city council members for allowing me to
give this short presentation. After the town hall last May on the opioid
addition problem in Port Angeles our group the Clallam Progressive
Coalition realized we could help with one of the problems associated
with this addiction: needles in parks and public places. In response we
decided to work with The Department of Parks and Recreation and hold
a trash and needle pick-up one Saturday a month.
We want to help make Port Angeles the best community that we can.
However we found out that the City of Port Angeles's lawyer thinks we
should have a million dollars of liability insurance before we do
volunteer work for the city. I understand his concern but there is
another side how do you expect small groups of citizens to help out, to
volunteer, to be involved in the pride of Port Angeles, and yet pay at
least $650 per year for this privilege. Once I attended a conference on
care of parks in cities. One of the represented cities had a park that the
neighborhood surrounding it wanted to clean up and beautify. The city
encouraged this, not because the free labor saved them money but
because it encouraged citizen involvement.
We are a small group of citizens, some of us are on social security, some
are unemployed and looking for work (but frequently find themselves
overqualified for the available jobs) and others are busy working,
raising families, paying mortgages and certainly none of us have
excessive amounts of money.
However, we all love this beautiful city of Port Angeles so please
reconsider the insurance requirement and let us be involved and
volunteer to help our city. DAN n M `2'e,'c'5

SUBJECT: Second Reading of Ordinance for the 2017 Comprehensive Plan Annual
Amendment
Summary: The City of Port Angeles performs an annual amendment cycle for the
Comprehensive Plan. All proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan are considered
concurrently on an annual basis from July 1St through June 30th and shall be adopted no more
than once during said period, except that amendments conforming to the GMA may also be

Recommendation: Following the public hearing, adopt the ordinance amending the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
Background
City Budget Requests for Updates to the Comprehensive Plan
The Department of Community& Economic Development (CED) originally requested in July
2014 the budget to lead an extensive update to the City's Comprehensive Plan. It was the intent
of the Department to place an early budget request to allow for adequate time to perform an
extensive update that included public outreach efforts and document drafting. Accepted practice
throughout the State recognizes that Comprehensive Plan updates require a minimum two year
time frame for implementation. Staff's 2014 budget request was not approved. The next budget
request occurred in 2015 and was significantly reduced from the original request and only
allowed for an update to begin January 1, 2016. In addition CED staffing at this time was down
33%. Despite this constraint, staff executed State mandated update requirements in less than 5
06/20/2017 F - 10
months with over 25 different public outreach efforts occurring between April 11th and June 30th.
Public participation and engagement opportunities resulted in broad participation an input from
members of the community and Council members were informed and invited to participate.
2016 State Mandated Update of the Comprehensive Plan
The City of Port Angeles completed a State mandated update of the City's Comprehensive Plan
between January and June of 2016. This update was a requirement of the Washington State
Growth Management Act (RCW 36.70A), which states how a City is required to periodically
update its Comprehensive Plan, and included the date of June 30, 2016 as the deadline for which
the update must be completed.
The Department of Community& Economic Development led the extensive community
outreach efforts affiliated with the 2016 update to the Comprehensive Plan. The efforts included
a variety of meetings, open studios, workshops, presentations and on-line surveys. Comments
and ideas were gathered and then synthesized into a new community vision statement and some
new and/or amended policy and objective language. City Council approved the Comprehensive
Plan on June 21, 2016 and requested that staff bring as part of an annual amendment process a
revised more user friendly version that incorporates an implementation matrix for a City Council
worksession in January of 2017.
City Annual Update of the Comprehensive Plan
The City of Port Angeles performs an annual amendment cycle for the Comprehensive Plan. All
proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan are considered concurrently on an annual basis
from July 1St through June 30th and shall be adopted no more than once during said period,
except that amendments conforming to the GMA may also be adopted whenever an emergency
exists. Comprehensive Plan amendment proposals shall be submitted no later than March 31 St
Staff kicked off the 2017 annual amendment process with a City Council worksession. Prior to
the work session, Council members were asked to review the comprehensive plan and prioritize
policies in the document. During the worksession, Council priorities were presented along with
planned changes to the document. No additional changes to the document were requested by
Council as part of the worksession. On June 6, 2017, City Council conducted the first reading
and public hearing on the annual amendments to the document. No specific changes were
requested by City Council at that time, however, one Council member did request that citywide
levels of service be introduced to the plan.
Proposal:
The City didn't receive any amendment proposals from the public. The Department of
Community& Economic Development entered into a contract with Studio Cascade Inc. to assist
with the proposed 2017 annual amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan. Studio Cascade
was the consultant team who assisted the City in the 2016 periodic update that was required by
the Washington State Department of Commerce, who administers the Growth Management Act.
The proposed amendments can be summarized as below (and are elaborated within Exhibit B of
the Ordinance):
06/20/2017 F - 11
Amendment 1. Transportation element response and revision
This amendment includes providing the technical research necessary to respond to WSDOT's
comments delivered to the City in 2016.
Amendment 2. Economic development element revision
This amendment includes revision to the economic development element to incorporate new
objectives supporting Mt. Angeles View Housing, Boys and Girls Club, Performing Arts Center,
Feiro Marine Life Center and William Shore Pool projects.
Amendment 3. Document rearrangement
This amendment includes work to reorder the chapters of the draft document, where the first
three chapters -Intro, Community Profile and Definitions-become reference chapters in the back,
allowing the Element chapters to be better highlighted, incorporating a brief description of the
purpose of each tying them to the Community vision. This work incorporates new language into
the plan that strengthens the plan's ties to the City's Strategic Plan, Capital Facilities Plan,
Budget, Water Facilities Plan and Transportation Faculties Plan.
Amendment 4. Implementation matrix
This amendment produces a formatted implementation matrix/table of policies as prioritized by
Council and provided to the consultant by the City. It also provides an updated implementation
matrix identifying specific task items prioritized to conform to City Council policy priorities,
listing responsible implementation entities and likely partners. This is specifically proposed in
Chapter 11 of the reformatted plan. As a part of this work, objectives included in each of the plan
elements were removed from each element chapter and incorporated into the new
implementation matrix table.

Introduction
Foundation of City Policy
The comprehensive plan is the policy foundation
for the City, it sets fundamental goals, policies,
and objectives that are the basis for all action. The
City budget, capital facilities plan, City work plan,
transportation plan, and departmental level of
service standards are all based on and are consistent
with comprehensive plan policy. The City's strategic
plan also ties back to the comprehensive plan,
specifically addressing how the City will implement
comprehensive plan objectives over the next two
years, establishing priorities for action.
GMA Compliance
In 1990 the Washington State Legislature enacted
the State Growth Management Act (GMA), which
requires all cities and counties subject to the
Act to develop and adopt comprehensive plans
and implementing ordinances that will regulate
and guide future growth and development. In
accordance with the Act, each county must also
establish independent urban growth areas capable
of containing future growth projected for cities, and
other urban areas, for the next 20 years. To ensure
compatibility between various comprehensive
06/20/2017
EXHIBIT B
plans, the cities, county, and other affected agencies cooperatively
developed a set of county-wide planning policies to guide this
process.
To ensure orderly development, the City of Port Angeles agreed to
work with the County in the development of comprehensive plan
goals and policies for the Port Angeles Urban Growth Area (UGA).
The Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan has been developed and
periodically updated to meet the requirements of the GMA and is
consistent with the Clallam County-Wide Planning Policy.
This 2016 update was undertaken to meet the State's GMA
requirements and included a process intended to capture comments
and suggestions from the broadest range of the public. The public
participation process was led by Studio Cascade Inc., Community
Planning and Design.
Purpose of the Comprehensive Plan
A City's Comprehensive Plan serves as the core of the land use
controls which all other city plans, ordinances, and regulations must
be in compliance with and support.
Prior to the passage of the State GMA, such compliance was
considered desirable but actual consistency was not required. The
GMA now makes such compliance a requirement.
If subordinate planning or regulations, such as the City's Zoning
Ordinance or Capital Facility Plan, are not consistent with the goals
and policies of the Comprehensive Plan, then those documents may
be determined to be illegal and rendered invalid.
The Comprehensive Plan is the basis upon which local governmental
decisions are to be made. It sets forth the City's goals and policies
and visualizes directions the City will take over the next two
decades. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map illustrates the
desired development pattern for the city.
It is, therefore, important that the Comprehensive Plan truly reflect

Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan is the foundation upon which the City's
development regulations (zoning, Environmentally Sensitive Areas
protection, parking and sign codes, and subdivision ordinances) and
Urban Services Standards and Guidelines Manual, Capital Facilities
Plan and Urban Services and Utilities Plan are based, and from which
the City's future land use pattern will come.
A community is a diverse and heterogeneous grouping of people.
Individually, each of us has a set of treasured values. Together, we
give the community a set of shared values.
In a community, individual values often clash and indeed must
confront each other if the shared values of the community are
to develop. Good planning uncovers the values we share as a
community and uses the shared values to guide development of the
Comprehensive Plan.
No plan can be expected to last for all time. Times change,
conditions change, and what we value in our community changes.
Even though this Comprehensive Plan is intended to cover a 20-
year period, it must be reviewed at least every seven years and
can be amended every year. This allows the City to adjust the
Comprehensive Plan as conditions, needs, and desires of the
community change.
Chapter 1 - Introduction 1.3

EXHIBIT B
Through the ongoing development of this Comprehensive Plan,
the City of Port Angeles reaffirms that it is the rightful goal of the
people of our community to take an active role, sharing the work
and responsibility involved in determining the character, quality, and
destiny of this community.
Plan Development & Public Participation
The Comprehensive Plan was initially updated from its 1976 version
under the GMA in June of 1994. The City's last major update to
the Comprehensive Plan was in 2004. Several minor amendments
have been approved since that time. The 2016 updates reflected a
citywide approach with an ambitious public participation program.
The current version (2016) of the Comprehensive Plan was updated
to meet the requirements of the GMA. Areas of the plan that have
been expanded include handling of archaeological discoveries and
sites, the inclusion of low-impact stormwater management methods
that more closely mimic natural processes, increased emphasis
on urban forestry and landscaping and consideration of issues
surrounding climatic change.
The City of Port Angeles allows amendments to the Comprehensive
Plan to occur on an annual basis, within limited time periods.
Individual citizens or groups may propose Comprehensive Plan
amendments during the three month period between January
1 and March 31 of each year. Proposed amendments require
environmental review and a public hearing prior adoption by the City
Council.
Organization & Requirements of the
Comprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan is organized with an introduction, a
community profile, a definition section, a series of elements, and
various appendixes including the Capital Facilities Plan, Housing
Needs Assessment, and Environmental Impact Statement. Each
element addresses a particular topic and contains a general
comment section and multiple goals with various related policies and
objectives. Some of the elements have an associated map or plan.
The Comprehensive Plan goals are expressed as broad statements of
intent that will fulfill the vision of what the city intends to become
or how the city should look or feel in the future. The goals in the

Comprehensive Plan are supported by policy statements that usually
include the word should. The policy statements are directive, and
provide a basis for decision-making and establish a principal of
wise management leading to achievement of a goal. Objectives are
statements of specific actions that when taken will result in the
realization of a goal.
The GMA requires that a comprehensive plan consist of a map
or maps and descriptive text covering objectives, principles, and
standards used to develop the comprehensive plan. The plan must
also be an internally consistent document, with all elements made
consistent with the Land Use Map.
The Land Use Map is provided to show general uses to be located
in generalized areas of the City. The plan shows six general land
use categories: Low, Medium and High-Density Residential; and
Commercial, Industrial, and Open Space. These general land use
areas are not specifically bounded by streets, parcel lines, or other
political boundaries. For purposes of this plan, they are separated by
what is referred to as "imprecise margins." These, together with the
land use categories, provide a framework and direction for desired
development patterns, while at the same time, allow for flexibility in
applying zoning designations.
The GMA requires that comprehensive plans include a plan, scheme,
or design for each of the following:
1) Land Use Element
2) Housing Element
3) Capital Facilities Plan Element
4) Utilities Element
5) Transportation Element.
Additionally, comprehensive plans must contain a process for
identifying and siting Essential Public Facilities.
This plan contains each of the required elements as well as four
additional optional elements: A Conservation Element, an Economic
Development Element, a Growth Management Element and a Parks
& Recreation Element. Each of the elements have been developed
to be consistent with the GMA and to reflect the needs and desires
of the City of Port Angeles and its citizens. Detailed minimum
requrements for GMA-required elements are provided in Appendix
C.

Use of the Comprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan is designed to be used by the public as a
way for citizens to learn the long-range goals and policies of the
City as a base upon which City officials make land use and other
decisions, and as a tool which City staff uses to insure desirable
development of the City. This document provides a sense of
predictability to citizens of the city or potential residents considering
relocating to Port Angeles.
The plan's Environmental Impact Statement (EIS, Appendix A) is
designed as a programmatic EIS and may be used as a phased
reviewed environmental document for any plans, ordinances,
programs, or development projects that are consistent with the
goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The EIS has been
updated through addenda and regular State Environmental Policy
Act (SEPA) review as amendments to the Comprehensive Plan have
been periodically approved. Any project proposed in the City will
have to show that it is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. If
it is not, it cannot be approved unless the Comprehensive Plan is
amended and additional environmental review is completed.

areas of interest to citizens, Vision statements are based on the anticipated conditions of
Port Angeles in 2036.
"The City of Port Angeles is vibrant and prospering, nurturing a balance of
innovation and tradition to create an environmentally, economically, and
fiscally sustainable community, accepting and cherishing its social diversity,
small-town character and natural setting."
In achieving this vision, Port Angeles recognizes the important roles each of the following

City Actions Since the 2004 Update
Since the last major update of the Comprehensive Plan,
several objectives have been accomplished. Those -
accomplishments include the replacement of both century-
old trestle bridges spanning Valley Creek and Tumwater
Creek on 8th Street. The bridge spanning Peabody Creek at
Lauridsen Boulevard was replaced with a structure that will
allow truck traffic to make the turn and follow Lauridsen as intended
for the cross-town alternative to Highway 101.
The City's landfill has been closed and converted into a regional
transfer station, and work to remove waste materials that remain
in the marine bluff and stabilize the bluff to prevent further adverse
impacts to the shoreline is underway, and will be completed in
2016. A major project to resolve long-standing issues with combined
sewer/stormwater systems overflowing into the Strait of Juan de
Fuca has been completed and the second project phase is underway
and nearing completion.
The City has followed through with the creation of new zone
designations in anticipation of future annexations, especially the
Chapter 1 - Introduction 1.11

EXHIBIT B
eastern UGA. The Commercial Regional zone was created to be
applied to areas along Highway 101 where existing large commercial
uses such as car dealerships and large-volume stores currently exist
or where land is available for such uses. A major infrastructure goal
was achieved with the extension of a sewer main line to the eastern
UGA.
A second new zone was created for large suburban-scale residential
lots. The Residential Single Family zone (RS-11), restricting residential
lots to a minimum of 11,000 square feet or larger has been applied
to areas within existing city limits.
An Industrial Marine (IM) zone was also created to be applied to
shoreline areas focusing primarily on marine trades that may need
the support of commercial uses to provide a framework for mixed
uses in a campus-like environment.
In 2009 the City received a grant from the American Institute of
Architects (AIA). The grant resulted community planning effort
known as the Sustainable Design Assessment. The AIA Sustainable
Design Assessment Team Report has been adopted and incorporated
as an extension of the Comprehensive Plan. Implementation of the
document can be found throughout the implementation chapter of
this document as well as in the City's Strategic Plan.
Industrial zoning was modified to include the potential for work/live
situations, where working artists requiring large work studios with
industrial types of activities, are permitted to live at their studios by
conditional use permit.
A major planning effort was completed in 2014. The Shoreline
Master Program (SMP) was approved and accepted by the
Department of Ecology, completing a five-year effort that included
the writing of a new Harbor Resource Management Plan, Shoreline
Inventory/Characterization/Analysis Document, a Cumulative
Impacts Analysis and a Shoreline Restoration Plan. The shoreline
planning effort took place concurrently with several restoration
projects occurring on the south shoreline of Ediz Hook. The last
phase of shoreline restoration was completed during the summer
months of 2016, and will result in a continuous restored shoreline
from Harbor View Park on the east to Sail and Paddle Park on the
west. As a result of the new environmental designations applied
to Ediz Hook by the SMP and restoration work that has been
accomplished, the objective to develop an Ediz Hook Master Plan has
been made unnecessary.

A 358-acre area was annexed into the City in 2005. The area is
located along the south side of Highway 101, west of the city limits
at that time. The area is primarily an industrial site, accommodating
several large operations, and much of the area is zoned Industrial
Heavy. Portions of the annexed area along Highway 101 include
residential uses.
Another major accomplishment is the construction of a Waterfront
Promenade located between Oak Street and Laurel Street in the
city's downtown. The promenade was the first phase of a multi-
phase project planned for the downtown waterfront. The second
phase, also completed, included creation of two small beach areas
where hard-armored shoreline once existed west of Oak Street to
the Valley Creek Estuary Park. Enhancements to the Waterfront Trail
are also an integral portion of the project. Subsequent phases will
improve the portion of Railroad Avenue east of Laurel Street to City
Pier Park.
An associated downtown project that had been anticipated for
several years was also completed. This "Gateway Project" resulted
in a downtown transit center and covered pavilion area for public
activities. The pavilion is now used regularly for the local Farmers
Market, and as a venue for various festivals.

A portion of downtown's sidewalks and water lines were replaced
beginning in 2006. As part of that project, the west side of Laurel
Street between First and Front was developed to preserve the last
remaining portion of the "Port Angeles Underground."
Regionally, a major effort involved the removal of the two dams
placed on the Elwha River a century ago. This project included
reconstruction of the City's water collection system and the intake
for the industrial water supply. In addition, a new bridge was built
spanning the river. The new bridge includes a suspended pedestrian/
bicycle segment of the Olympic Discovery Trail.
The Olympic Discovery Trail between the western city limits and
18th Street was improved as the trail right-of-way and was also
used for a sewer line extension to the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe's
reservation lands. The sewer extension outside of the city was
made necessary by the removal of the dams upstream from the
reservation. The removal of the dams resulted in a higher ground
water table, making on-site sewer drainfields unusable. The
reservation is now served by City sewer facilities.
In 2007, the City added a Parks & Recreation Element to the
Comprehensive Plan. In 2009, the City implemented a Fagade and
Sign Improvement Grant program to help small businesses enhance
the appearance of buildings in the city.
Another effort at citywide beautification was accomplished in 2014
with the passage of a Street Tree Ordinance. The passage of the
ordinance resulted in the City being awarded the "Tree City USA"
designation from the National Arbor Day Foundation.
All of the above-mentioned projects were included in the earlier
version of the Comprehensive Plan as goals, policies, or objectives.

General Comments
This Comprehensive Plan has been developed in
accordance with the requirements of the State
Growth Management Act (GMA). The City met all
of the Act's required deadlines for compliance and
participated with Clallam County (The County), the
City of Forks, the City of Sequim, area Tribes and
other agencies in the development of a County-
Wide Planning Policy.
Early in the planning process, the City agreed with
the County to address only areas within the current
City Limits in the Comprehensive Plan and to work
with the County on a joint Comprehensive Plan for
the Urban Growth Area (UGA). On April 13, 1993,
the Board of Clallam County Commissioners adopted
an Interim Port Angeles UGA. In 2005, the City
and County entered into an interlocal agreement
on a phased annexation plan for the Eastern UGA.
A similar agreement was reached regarding the
western UGA. At that time, the City established
the intended zones that would be applied to areas
annexed to the City from the Eastern UGA.

Goal •.
G-2A To manage growth in a responsible manner that is beneficial to
the community as a whole, is sensitive to the rights and needs •
of individuals and is consistent with the State of Washington's
Growth Management Act.
Policies
P-2A.01 In all its actions and to the extent consistent with the provisions of this
comprehensive plan, the City should strive to implement the following
goals of the State Growth Management Act:
a) Urban growth. Encourage development in urban areas where adequate
public facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient
manner.
b) Reduce sprawl. Reduce the inappropriate conversion of undeveloped
land into sprawling, low-density development.
c) Transportation. Encourage efficient multi-modal transportation systems
that are based on regional priorities and coordinated with county and
city comprehensive plans.
d) Housing. Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all
economic segments of the population. Promote a variety of residential
densities and housing types and sizes, and encourage preservation and
expansion of existing housing stock.
e) Economic development. Encourage economic development throughout
the region that is consistent with adopted comprehensive plans,
promote economic opportunity, especially for unemployed and for
disadvantaged persons, and encourage growth in areas experiencing
insufficient economic growth, all within the capacities of the region's
natural resources, public services and public facilities.
f) Property rights. Private property should not be taken for public use
without just compensation having been made. The property rights of
landowners should be protected from arbitrary and discriminatory
actions.
g) Permits. Applications for both state and local government permits
should be processed in a timely and fair manner to ensure predictability.
h) Natural resource industries. Maintain and enhance regional natural
resource-based industries, including productive timber management,
agricultural, and fisheries industries.
i) Open space and recreation. Encourage the retention of open space and
development of recreational opportunities, conserve fish and wildlife

habitat areas, increase access to natural resource lands and water, and
develop parks.
j) Environment. Protect the environment and enhance the state's high
quality of life, including air and water quality, and the availability of
water.
k) Citizen participation and coordination. Encourage the involvement
of citizens in the planning process and ensure coordination between
communities and jurisdictions to reconcile conflicts.
I) Public facilities and services. Ensure that those public facilities and
services necessary to support development should be adequate to serve
the development at the time the development is available for occupancy
and use without decreasing current service levels below locally
established minimum standards.
m) Historic preservation. Identify and encourage the preservation of lands,
sites and structures that have historical or archaeological significance.
P-2A.02 The Port Angeles Urban Growth Area (PAUGA) should be established
based at a minimum upon land use demand as determined by the Clallam
County 20-year population forecast for Clallam County and specified
sub-areas, so long as the county-wide forecast is not less than the most
recent forecasts available from the State Office of Financial Management.
P-2A.03 The City should work with the County to develop an annexation plan
which allows the annexation of land characterized by urban development
and which is consistent with the extension of services and the land
development policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Capital
Facilities Plan.
P-2A.04 The City should work with the County to ensure appropriate techniques
for managing future growth consistent with the urban density, such as
a minimum density within the PAUGA and a maximum density outside
the PAUGA. A range of densities should be provided by the City for lands
within the PAUGA, including some lands for relatively low density single-
family development and some lands at a range of densities both allowing
and encouraging multi-family development.
P-2A.05 Urban services/facilities should be provided consistent with the Capital
Facilities Element.
P-2A.06 The City should work with the County and other service providers to
determine the appropriate levels of service for such facilities and services
and to ensure consistency between service provision within the City, the
PAUGA, and the County.
.. P-2A.07 The City's preferred policy is to recognize a density of one unit per acre
as urban/suburban and to use this density as the demarcation between
urban and rural for purposes of establishing or amending the PAUGA;
• however, the City will continue to discuss this issue with the County with
the goal of arriving at a consistent City/County policy prior to finalization
of the UGA.

physical features.
P-2A.09 Land designated for commercial or industrial uses, which encourage
adjacent urban development, should be located within the PAUGA.
P-2A.10 The amount of acreage designated for commercial, industrial, or other
non-residential uses within the PAUGA should be based upon the
Land Use Element and Economic Development Element in the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
P-2A.11 The PAUGA should be established to avoid critical areas, unless addressed
as part of the City's Comprehensive Plan, and to exclude resource lands.
P-2A.12 Urban services to be provided within the PAUGA should include, at

systems, water systems, urban roads and pedestrian facilities, street
cleaning services, transit systems, stormwater systems, police, fire and
emergency services systems, electrical and communication systems,
school and health care facilities, and neighborhood and/or community
parks.
P-2A.13 The City should be the ultimate provider of urban services within the City
limits and the PAUGA for those services the City provides except to the
extent otherwise provided in a UGA Urban Services and Development
Agreement that is reached pursuant to the County-Wide Planning Policy.
P-2A.14 Urban services/facilities for which the City is the ultimate provider
should be provided and constructed to meet the design and construction
standards of the City.
P-2A.15 The City or service provider should demonstrate the financial capability
for continued operation of the facility following construction.
P-2A.16 Regulations to protect critical areas, which occur within the PAUGA,
should be developed to ensure protection of such areas.
P-2A.17 All development regulations should be promulgated with due regard for
private property rights in order to avoid regulatory takings or violation of
due process and to protect property rights of landowners from arbitrary
and discriminatory actions.
P-2A.18 The City and County should together designate and set aside additional
lands on the west side of the City for industrial and commercial purposes,
both inside the City limits and in the UGA.

Land Use
General Comments
The Land Use Element establishes City policy ,
regarding how land may be developed. This
element and its Future Land Use Map (Figure 3.01)
establishes the following six comprehensive plan
land use categories:
• Low Density Residential,
• Medium Density Residential,
• High Density Residential,
• Commercial,
• Industrial, and
• Open Space.
These categories and their associated areas are
configured in coordination with a wide range
of planning considerations including population
projections and a developable lands inventory, per
GMA requirements. Details on these factors may be
found in Appendices A and C.
Together, the goal and policy framework presented
in this element provides direction in realizing
Port Angeles' long-range vision regarding land
use - including optimizing the city's relationship

with its setting; supporting safe, attractive and character-rich
neighborhoods; creating a more dynamic, successful downtown;
and supporting a wide range of recreational opportunities available
to the entire community. Objectives related to Land Use goals and
policies are included in Chapter 11, Implementation.
Land Use Categories
These land use categories are described below and located on the
Future Land Use Map.
Low Density Residential (Up to seven units per
acre)
The Land Use Map identifies three separate categories of residential
development. The first is Low Density Residential, which allows an
overall residential density of a project or property to range up to 7
units per acre. The high majority of residentially designated property in
the City will be of this designation. It is intended for the development
of single family homes. It also allows for the development of accessory
residential units and duplexes in accordance with the underlying
zoning.
Medium Density Residential (Up to 13 units per
acre)
The primary intent of this designation is for the development of
multiple residential unit projects including but not limited to duplexes,
townhouses, condominiums, and apartments at a density up to 13 units
per acre.
High Density Residential (Up to 39 Units per Acre, except that existing
motel or hotel units may be converted to residential units at a density
greater than 39 Units per Acre).
The primary intent of this designation is for development at a density
up to 39 units per acre and is intended for areas where a higher
concentration of residents is compatible with the surrounding area and
uses. Condominiums and apartments, are the types of building designs
appropriate for this category.
Commercial
The Land Use Map contains one commercial category, thus providing
maximum flexibility to the City's Zoning Ordinance in regulating the
types of commercial uses and their permitted locations.

The Land Use Map also designates only one industrial category, thus
again providing maximum flexibility to the City's Zoning Ordinance in
regulating the types of industrial uses and their permitted locations.
Open Space
The Open Space category includes areas of the City that contain
unique or major physical features, such as marine shorelines, bluffs,
ravines, major streams, wetlands, critical wildlife habitat, and other
natural areas deemed of significant importance to the community.
This category also includes developed parks and recreational uses. The
development of natural open space areas should be limited to only that
which is necessary and does not degrade the significance of the area.

■ Land Use Map: Goals & Policies •
Goal •.
G-3A To guide current and future development within the City in a
manner that provides certainty to its citizens about future land •
use and the flexibility necessary to meet the challenges and
opportunities of the future.
Policies
P-3A.01 The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map should be used as a conceptual
guide for determining current and long-range zoning and other land
use decisions. The map's land use designations are intended to show
areas where general land use types are allowed. The area between land
use designations should be considered an imprecise margin in order
to provide flexibility in determining the boundary of such areas. When
determining appropriate zoning designations for an area near a margin,
the goals, policies and objectives of the Land Use Element should take
precedence.
P-3A.02 All land use decisions and approvals made by the City Council and/
or any of its appointed Commissions, Boards or Committees should be
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its land use map.
P-3A.03 The City should investigate the value and utility of form-based codes,
either as applied to the entire City or to specific areas within the City.
P-3A.04 All development within the City should be encouraged to utilize low
impact development techniques and BMPs, where feasible.
P-3A.05 The City should consider the projected climatic change impacts and
adaptation strategies contained in the Climatic Change Preparedness Plan
for the North Olympic Peninsula, September 2015.
■ Residential: Goals & Policies
Goal
G-3113 To have a community where residential development and use
of the land are done in a manner that is compatible with the
environment, the characteristics of the use and the users, and the
desired urban design of the City.
Policies
P-36.01 Urban services should be available for all residential areas as required by
the Capital Facilities Element concurrency policy.

P-36.02 Single family lots should be of reasonable shape and should have access
provided by a collector arterial, local access street or an alley.
P-36.03 Large lots should allow for future subdivisions at the densities permitted
for the zone in which they are located.
P-36.04 All residential developments should be designed with the provisions of
fire protection and service vehicle access as key factors in street design
and circulation pattern.
P-36.05 For efficient circulation, rights-of-way should be obtained and
improvements made to further the grid street pattern in the central
Townsite area of the City. Cul-de-sacs and curvilinear streets may be
permitted when designed as an integral part of the major grid street
pattern in the outlying areas of the City, where low impact development
standards apply.
P-36.06 All residential developments should be encouraged to preserve and
capitalize on existing unusual, unique, and interesting natural, historic,
archaeological, and/or cultural features, should preserve and utilize
native and drought tolerant vegetation, should utilize and preserve
scenic views, should maximize southern exposures and solar efficiency,
should offer protection from prevailing winds, and should be designed to
minimize energy use.
P-36.07 Planned Residential Development techniques should emphasize the
overall density of the development rather than minimum lot sizes.
Goal
G-3C To have a community of viable districts and neighborhoods with
a variety of residential opportunities for personal interaction,
fulfillment, and enjoyment, that are attractive to people of all
ages, characteristics and interests.
Policies
P-3C.01 Residential land should be developed on the district and neighborhood
concept. Although such districts may be composed primarily of
residential uses of a uniform density, a healthy, viable district should
be composed of residential uses of varying densities, which may be
augmented, by subordinate and compatible uses. Single family and multi-
family homes, parks and open-spaces, schools, churches, day care and
residential services, home occupations, and district shopping areas are
all legitimate components of district development and enhancement. A
neighborhood should be primarily composed of low, medium, or high
density housing.
P-3C.02 Medium and high density housing should be located in areas of the
community most suitable for such uses, based on existing services, public
facilities, and transportation.

different land uses, provided such other uses would not adversely impact
the residential nature of the housing.
P-3C.05 Medium and high density housing policies should apply to mobile home
parks.
P-3C.06 Manufactured homes that meet current state regulations should be
treated as site constructed housing for zoning purposes.
P-3C.07 The City should expand housing opportunities in the Central Business
District for all income levels, with an emphasis on providing additional
moderately priced owner-occupied units.
■ Commercial: Goals & Policies
Goal
G-311) To create and maintain a healthy and diverse commercial sector
for a balanced and stable local economy.
Policies
P-3D.01 The City should encourage the recruitment of new and the retention of
existing commercial developments and businesses, which are consistent
with the goals and policies of this Comprehensive Plan.
P-3D.02 Public uses such as government offices, public service buildings, and
other public and quasi-public facilities and services should be allowed in
commercially designated areas.
P-3D.03 The City should vacate rights-of-way to facilitate retention of existing
businesses and location of new businesses where land assembly is
necessary to achieve the desired urban design of the City.
P-3D.04 The City should consider potential environmental consequences, such as
greenhouse-gas emissions and carbon footprints, when encouraging new
commercial developments and businesses.
Goal

P-3E.06 New Comprehensive Plan commercial area designations should not be
located along the alternate local cross-town route or the cross-town truck
route.
P-3E.07 District shopping areas should be located at the intersections of arterial
streets of sufficient size to satisfy traffic demand and at the boundaries of
neighborhoods so that more than one neighborhood may be served.
P-3E.08 The City should allow neighborhood shopping nodes in residentially
designated areas as long as they are in accordance with the planning
area/district/neighborhood land use concept and as long as they do
not encourage traffic from outside the neighborhood or increase traffic
congestion within residential neighborhoods.
P-3E.09 The City should identify neighborhoods lacking nearby accessible
services.
P-3E.10 The City should identify locations to develop small commercial
opportunities in neighborhoods.

Transportation
General Comments �6�
The intent of the Transportation Element is to define
in a comprehensive manner how vehicular traffic
and non-motorized modes of travel are to be routed
from one portion of the community to another in
the most efficient, economical, and compatible
manner. The City's Circulation Plan in accordance
with the Statewide National Functional Classification
System identifies the City's principal arterial streets,
minor arterial streets, and collectors with the
remaining streets classified as local streets (See
Figure 6). The City's Circulation Plan acknowledges
that such a regional system serves many functions.
It is a means of intercity commuting, a way to
promote economic development, a means to
promote a healthy lifestyle, and a way to provide
future utility right-of-way.
Together, the goal and policy framework presented
in this element (and the analysis in Appendix D)
provides direction in realizing the City's long-range
vision regarding transportation - including support
for a strong economy; creating walkable, people-
friendly environments; and improving the health
and quality of life for all residents of Port Angeles.
Objectives related to Transportation are included in

Housing
General Comments
The City recognizes the extreme importance of
available clean, safe, and affordable housing in the
community. A housing needs assessment, titled
Measuring Housing Needs: A Data Toolkit for Clallam
County, was prepared in 2006 for the Housing
Authority of Clallam County. This report is included
with the Comprehensive Plan as Appendix D.
The results of the 2006 study and public input
provided during the 2016 update process influenced
the development of the following goals, policies
and objectives, which strive to achieve Port
Angeles' long-range vision for housing. Beyond
improving the quality, affordability, and availability
of housing for residents, this element is seen to
support community objectives related to economic
development, downtown growth, neighborhood

P-6A.01 The City should expand the residential land use options in the Zoning
Code by classifying residential zones by allowed density rather than by
housing types.
P-6A.02 Residential uses should be allowed in all non-industrial zones. In
situations where a limited work/live environment is found to be
compatible with an underlying industrial zoning, limited work/
live environments may be deemed suitable when the living space is
subordinate in nature to the industrial use component and the integrity
and intent of the industrial zone is maintained.
P-6A.03 The retention and development of safe and attractive mobile home parks
should be encouraged.
P-6A.04 The City should develop a program to improve substandard housing in
the City of Port Angeles.
P-6A.05 The City should plan for sufficient urban services to support future
housing in a variety of allowable densities.
P-6A.06 Accessory residential units should be allowed in single family residential
zones, upon approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
P-6A.07 The City should promote acceptance of low and moderate income
housing through public information programs.
P-6A.08 The City should consider the effect of impact fees on the affordability of
housing prior to establishing such impact fees.
P-6A.09 In State and Federal publicly assisted housing under current contracts,
the City should require property owners who demolish, substantially
rehabilitate, change the use of residential property, or remove use
restrictions developments to provide relocation assistance to those
tenants displaced as provided for in sections 49 and 50 of the Growth
Management Act (See RCW 59.18.440 and .450).

Policies •
P-8C.01 The Port Angeles School District should develop a capital facilities plan,
which the City will consider for inclusion in the Comprehensive Plan. The
capital facilities plan should contain at least a six-year plan for public
financing of such facilities as may be necessary to provide adequate
public schools at or greater than the following level of service standards •
in order to meet anticipated increases in student enrollment, which may
be anticipated based on the School District's projected enrollment figures
and residential growth as provided for in the Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan:
High School 125 square feet of permanent,appropriate educational
space per student
Middle School 104 square feet of permanent,appropriate educational
space per student
Elementary 100 square feet of permanent,appropriate educational
School space per student
If capacity is inadequate to house students at the established level of
service standards (LOS) and adequate school funding is not available, then
the demand for new facilities will be reduced (e.g. through year round
use of schools or by matching grade and enrollment to facility capacities)
or the level of service standards will be reduced to keep both schools and
housing development affordable to the majority of Port Angeles School
District residents. Imposition of Growth Management Act impact fees on
or denial of new development will not be used as a measure to prevent
further degradation of school services, unless the reduced level of service
standards are deemed unacceptable to Port Angeles School District No.

City History
it%l((t y
The City of Port Angeles has long been the primary I ��
urban center of the North Olympic Peninsula. J,
The earliest residents of the area were Native
Americans such as the Klallam ("Strong People") and
Makah tribes, who were sustained by the region's
abundant natural resources. These same natural
resources - the naturally protected deep-water
harbor, abundant coniferous forests, prolific wildlife
and marine resources, and an overall natural beauty
also attracted the first non-natives to the area
and continue today to encourage visitors and new
residents alike from all walks of life.
Known variously as "Old Dungeness," "False
Dungeness," "Cherbourg," and "Port Angeles,"
settlement was intermittent and sporadic
throughout the early history of the city.
In 1862 (due largely to the efforts of one man: Victor
Smith, the "Father of Port Angeles"), President
Abraham Lincoln signed an executive order setting
aside 3,520 acres of land on the site as a U.S.
Government Lighthouse and Military Reservation.
Soon after, the original townsite layout was platted

by the US Army Corps of Engineers, and the
townsite of Port Angeles has endured to this
day.

- _ gFea°M HARBOR same: Front, First, Second, etc.; at right angles
to these are Tumwater, Cedar, Pine, Valley,
a PORT ANGELES Cherry, Oak, Laurel, Vine, and Race Street.
While the City has benefited greatly from
r> z that original planning with its grid-pattern
h` street layout, various challenges were also
created such as utility service provision and
r
circulatory problems, due to the topography
`.� • ���� � ': ' of the land. Seven different streams, with
associated ravines travel through the
community flowing north from the foothills
of the Olympic Mountains as they wend their
way to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. They are:
Dry Creek, Tumwater Creek, Valley Creek,
Peabody Creek, Ennis/White's Creek, with
Lee's Creek, and Morse Creek located within
Figure A.01 —Port Angeles, as depicted in a 1917 the eastern Urban Growth Area (UGA).
Army Corps/USGS survey map (Image: University
of Texas, Perry-Costanedo Library Map Collection) Despite such early planning, major settlement
did not take place within the city until
1887, with the founding of the Puget Sound
Cooperative Colony. A social experiment in
communal living, the Colony contributed
greatly to the early expansion of Port Angeles.
Although short-lived, this settlement near
the mouth of Ennis Creek built a sawmill,
lath-mill and shipyard; constructed a 58-foot
propeller-driven schooner ("The Angeles");
started the first newspaper in town ("The
Model Commonwealth"); and built the first
schoolhouse, office building and a city opera
house - in addition to founding four different
churches in Port Angeles. The colony was
largely disbanded by 1889 due to internal
disputes, but many of the colonists stayed
and blended with the rest of the thriving
community.

By 1890, the city population had soared to over 3,000 people, and
the Government Reserve established 28 years earlier had become a
bottleneck to progress, completely restricting further development
of the city since it could not legally be homesteaded. The result was
a "land rush" onto the federal property, as citizens took matters into
their own hands as "Reserve Jumpers" that 4th of July - moving en-
masse onto the reserve, platting lots, and establishing homesteads.
Eventually, forced to recognize this matter officially, Congress
conceded ownership to the squatters and opened the Reserve for
sale to the public.
The year 1890 was also notable as the year Port Angeles was
officially incorporated as a city in the newly established State of
Washington, and that same year it also became the County Seat of
Clallam County.
Thereafter, the City grew more slowly and developed much as
other small towns in the Pacific Northwest. Gone were the early
pretensions of becoming a great seaport or second national city
patterned after Washington, D.C.
Logging and timber have long been important industries, and in
1914 Port Angeles was home to the world's largest sawmill. In 1920,
a large pulp and paper mill was built by Washington Pulp and Paper
Company. Purchased a few years later and operated by Crown
Zellerbach for over 60 years, the paper mill, located at the base of

Boat Haven Marina and The William Fairchild
International Airport, in addition to managing
much of the shoreline properties west of
downtown Port Angeles.
The first Coast Guard air station on the Pacific
Coast was established at Ediz Hook on June
1, 1935. It is the oldest United States Coast

on Lincoln Street in 1915. A new fire station was built in 1931. A new
police station and jail was built in 1954, and a new City Hall in 1987.
In 1953, Port Angeles received the "All American City" award.
Over the past forty years, except for a few periods of more rapid
growth in the 1920s and 30s, the city has grown at a fairly stable
rate of approximately one percent per year, to its present population
of 19,090.
The City has used zoning to coordinate development and growth
since the 1930s, and in the early 1960s, made a determined effort
to improve planning efforts through development of a "701" master
plan along with a new zoning ordinance and subdivision ordinance.
In 1976, the City again reviewed its planning goals and processes,
and adopted the 1976 Comprehensive Plan, which is the immediate
predecessor of this Comprehensive Plan.
Even before the State passed the Growth Management Act (GMA) of
1990 requiring cities and counties to revise or adopt comprehensive
plans, the City of Port Angeles had decided it was time to revise the
existing Comprehensive Plan, and had already begun that process
when the GMA established new requirements for comprehensive
plans. In response, the City has continued to move forward,
consistent with the GMA, meeting all of its requirements, including
the mandated completion dates.

Current Characteristics
An essential part of developing goals and setting directions for the
future lies in reviewing the past and evaluating the present. An
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), prepared by the consulting
firm of Nancy A. Ryan and Company for the 1994 Comprehensive
Plan takes an in-depth look at the physical, social, and economic
aspects of Port Angeles. A second addendum to the original EIS was
prepared and adopted for the updates that have occurred over a
three-year period ending in 2004. The following descriptions are
intended to provide the users of this document with a general view
of the community. For a more detailed analysis, refer to the EIS and
the 2004 update addendum.

Location
The City of Port Angeles is located in Clallam County on the northern
coast of Washington's Olympic Peninsula (See Figure A.03). It is
less than three hours driving time (including the ferry ride) from
Seattle or Olympia, and is located at the base of the Olympic
Mountains' north slope. Immediately to the north is the coastal
marine environment of the Port Angeles Harbor, one of the deepest
naturally-protected harbors on the West Coast, and Strait of Juan
de Fuca. To the south are the pristine alpine wilderness areas of the
Olympic National Park, to the east is the semi-arid climate of the
Sequim-Dungeness Valley, and within two hours time to the west
is the Hoh Rain Forest and the beaches and rugged beauty of the
Pacific Coast.
Air
The circulation of air around the Olympic Mountains and through the
Strait of Juan de Fuca results in mostly easterly or westerly winds in
the vicinity of Port Angeles. Highest winds are generally associated
with intense winter storms, and may be from either an easterly or
westerly direction. On most summer afternoons, a moderate to
strong westerly breeze can be expected. Wind velocity and direction
vary with the season. Winds from the west predominate and are
strongest during the summer, averaging about 14 miles per hour.
Winds from the south and east occur more frequently during the
winter, with an average velocity of about nine miles per hour.
Water
Port Angeles is located in the Port Angeles watershed, which drains
65,000 acres (101.5 square miles). A gradually-descending slope
from the Olympic Mountains north to the Strait of Juan de Fuca
characterizes the topography of the immediate Port Angeles area.
Steep hillsides and bluffs of 50 to 150 feet in elevation mark the
northern edge of the slope. This region is segmented by streams,
which flow from the mountains toward the strait and have formed
V-shaped ravines that are much lower in elevation than surrounding
areas. These ravines contain the following major creeks passing
through the community to Port Angeles Harbor and the Strait of
Juan de Fuca: Dry Creek, Tumwater Creek, Valley Creek, Peabody
Creek, Ennis/White's Creek; Lee's Creek and Morse Creek are
located east of the City limits in the UGA. The Elwha River is located
approximately 1.25 miles west of the City, and is the primary water

EXHIBIT B
source for the city. Very few sites in the City obtain potable water
from wells.
Wildlife
Port Angeles is located in an area replete with wildlife. The City is
located adjacent to Olympic National Park and the Strait of Juan
de Fuca. The drainages that pass through Port Angeles provide
wooded corridors and habitat for a wide variety of wildlife. Various
freshwater wetlands are scattered throughout the city. Port Angeles
Harbor is approximately 2,435 acres in size and is one of the deepest
natural harbors on the west coast. It provides habitat for many
aquatic species.
Identification and classification of all fish and wildlife habitats within
the City has not been developed. A Shoreline Habitat Assessment
authored by Pentec Environmental was completed in 2001 and
provides a basis for understanding the Port Angeles Harbor near-
shore environment. In addition, several studies have evaluated
eelgrass beds and kelp forests, habitat conditions, water quality, and
substrate contamination in the harbor.'
A Wetlands Inventory developed in 1995 by Sheldon and Associates
of Seattle, Washington, provides a foundation for protection of local
surface and groundwaters from degradation, identifies habitat areas
to protect and restore, and for developing a city-wide stormwater
management plan. Additional wetland delineations have been
completed and added to the inventory since the original inventory.
The wooded riparian areas provide food, cover, spawning,
breeding, and rearing areas for a wide variety of wildlife species.
Trees and other plants shade streams and help keep water cool
while stabilizing banks and providing food and habitat for insects,
amphibians, reptiles, mammals, birds and fish. Trees also provide
cover for wildlife. When trees die and fall into the streams, the logs
create small dams and pools that offer fish rearing habitat and cover
from predators. Logs that remain on land provide cover for wildlife.
Wildlife from the ravines also make use of surrounding developed
properties and undeveloped lands for foraging.
Within Clallam County, the Washington State Department of Wildlife
(Priority Habitats and Species program) has indicated that there are
15 "priority habitats" and 104 "priority species" listed in Clallam
County.z Due to an agreement with the Department of Wildlife, the

location of these habitats is not made available. The locations have
been reviewed and considered as part of this analysis.
The location of other less sensitive species has been identified in the
Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). In particular, there
are three areas that harbor seals use for haul-out. Those sites are
the beach at the former Rayonier Mill site, Hollywood Beach near
downtown, and the south shore of Ediz Hook in Port Angeles Harbor.
Department of Wildlife maps identify an area along the Harbor side
of Ediz Hook that has "regular large concentrations" of shorebirds.
The bluff along the shoreline also provides a special and valuable
habitat for shorebirds and other wildlife.
Within the Olympic National Park, Roosevelt Elk roam the slopes
of the mountains. Other wildlife include black bears, cougars,
coyotes, beavers, minks, raccoons, otters, wolves, eagles, hawks,
ravens, and grouse. Fisher have recently been reintroduced into the
Olympic National Park as well. Mountain goats were introduced to
the Olympic National Park during the last century and have become
well-established.
All of the creeks that make up the Port Angeles watershed are used
for fish habitat, but most have barriers to fish migration. Coho,
cutthroat and possibly steelhead use Dry Creek. Tumwater Creek
provides anadromous use by coho, cutthroat, and steelhead well-
upstream of the City limits. Valley Creek and Peabody Creek may
be used by sea-run cutthroat, however, these runs are not felt to
be self-sustaining. The stream ravines provide sections of relatively
high quality habitat, and are recognized by the State as sustaining
significant populations of resident fish and potentially having salmon
runs restored - once downstream impediments are removed. The
resident fish currently present in Ennis Creek are coho, sea-run
cutthroat, and steelhead. The fish migrate up to 4.9 miles from the
Port Angeles Harbor. White's Creek, which joins Ennis Creek, contains
coho, steelhead, and sea-run cutthroat only up to Front Street. The
estuary at Valley Creek was restored to its original condition as
a mitigation action in 1996. Extensive restoration of Valley Creek
has been accomplished upstream from the southern end of Valley
Street to the Highway 101 crossing. Restoration efforts have been
supported by City land acquisitions along the lower portions of
Valley Creek, with the intent of future restoration projects.
Natural Resources
There are very limited forest areas, and no mineral lands located
within the City. Much of the forested areas are located within

stream ravines or along the marine bluffs. Approximately 35 acres
of developable lands remain forested. Lincoln Park and Shane park
also contain forested areas that are protected from development,
however the trees in Lincoln Park are beginning to penetrate the
air space needed for approach to Fairchild Airport, and will likely be
removed in the future. The City of Port Angeles contains 26 miles of
marine shoreline including Ediz Hook, a four-mile-long sand spit, and
17 miles of streams.
Diverse scenic resources are abundant in Port Angeles. Notable
visual elements include the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Ediz Hook,
Vancouver Island, San Juan Islands, Mt. Baker, Hurricane Ridge,
and the Olympic National Park. Of special note are the views along
the bluffs above Port Angeles Harbor. The Ocean View Cemetery
at the west edge of town provides views northward and along the
coastline. The beaches and beachfront trail along the shoreline also
offer views of Ediz Hook, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and Vancouver
Island. Ediz Hook has superlative views of the Strait, mountains,
waterfront, and the city.
The vegetated creek ravines offer wooded open space, providing
wildlife habitat and corridors connecting the waterfront with the
foothills. Other open space amenities include wetlands, steep slopes,
marshes, hilltops, and even open fields.
Noise
The primary sources of noise in Port Angeles is air traffic from the
airport and the Coast Guard base, industrial activities along the
Port Angeles Harbor shoreline, vehicular traffic, and construction
activities. The ambient noise levels within the City of Port Angeles
would be expected to vary depending on location within the city.
In 1986, a Noise Compatibility Planning Study was conducted for the
Fairchild International Airport under the guidelines of the Federal
Aviation Regulations. The Planning Study included analyses of both
existing and projected noise levels associated with the aviation
traffic.
The one remaining mill along the waterfront is a source of noise
and is in a difficult place to provide noise attenuation. Since the mill
is visible from many residential areas on the bluff top to the south,
these residences can be expected to receive the greatest noise
impacts.
The Rayonier Mill closed in late 1990s, leaving no noise-producing
industries east of the downtown area. The K-Ply mill near downtown
( AppendixA- CommunityProfile A•11

closed in 2011, with site remediation completed in 2016. The Port
of Port Angeles intends redevelopment of the site for marine trades
industries.
Higher noise levels are allowed for motor vehicles operations on
public roads. Warning sirens and temporary construction equipment
are generally exempt from the noise regulations. Traffic levels would
be expected to be highest along major transportation routes of US
101, First Street, Front Street, Lincoln, Lauridsen Boulevard, Race
Street, Tumwater Truck Route, and Marine Drive.
Population
The population for the City of Port Angeles in 1993 was 18,270; this
represented an increase of three percent over the 1990 population
of 17,710. The population for Clallam County in 1993 was 61,400. The
percentage of the County population residing in the City dropped
to 28.5% in 2004. The 2000 population of 18,397 marked a 3.7%

increase over the 1990 population. The population had risen to
18,740 by 2007, and was 19,090 in 2015.
The State Office of Financial Management (OFM) has projected a
five percent growth rate over the next 20 years for Clallam County;
this, along with a linear projection for Port Angeles, is illustrated in
Table A.01. The City population so far not grown at the projected
rate.

Clallam County 71,404 75,717 85,142 95,739 107,655
The population figures in Table A.01 are projections based on an
estimated 1.5% growth rate. These numbers are considered high
due to the historic growth rate for the City of 0.36% per year. Using
information from the 2010 census, the percentage of Clallam County
population attributed to the City of Port Angeles was 28.5%. The
portion of the County population occurring in the City has been
declining in recent years from a high of 47% in 1970 to a 2014 low
of 26.3%. City population has grown by 52 people since the 2010
census data was collected, while the population of Clallam County
increased by 1,096 people.
Land Use
The City of Port Angeles contains 10.7 square miles or 6,856 acres
of land area. There are residential areas, industrial areas and
commercial areas with a fairly well defined Central Business District
(CBD). Figure A.06 shows the number of parcels within each zone.
Port Angeles currently has land available in each zone designation to
meet the anticipated future needs for developable lands. Figure A.07
and Figure A.08 indicate the amount of available land for industrial
and residential lands, respectively.
Currently, there are 567 parcels developed with infrastructure
available for residential development.

Peninsula College is a comprehensive community college located in
Port Angeles. The campus is located at the east edge of the city.
By partnering with community organizations and other institutions
of higher education, Peninsula College is helping to enhance and
strengthen educational and training opportunities for everyone
on the peninsula. Recent initiatives include developing the Applied
Environmental Technologies Center of Excellence by working in
collaboration with several local entities, including the Clallam County
Economic Development Council and private businesses; collaborating
with the North Olympic Peninsula Skills Center and Business
Incubator Network to provide training programs for young people,
the work force, and growing local businesses; and partnering with
the Workforce Development Council to provide services to expand
the use of technology in the Medical Assistant Program and to
provide training as part of the Work Source Affiliate Site.
Peninsula College also collaborates with several-four-year colleges
and universities to provide opportunities for local residents to earn
bachelor degrees on the peninsula. These collaborations include
a new partnership with Western Washington University's award-
winning Huxley College of the Environment that allows peninsula
residents to earn their Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Science
(BS) degrees on the Peninsula College campus without having to
leave the area or face long commutes to Bellingham. It is also
possible to earn a bachelor's degree in education. Collaboration
with City University allows Olympic Peninsula residents to earn
a bachelor's degree in education; University of Washington-
Bothell allows individuals to earn a bachelor's degree in Nursing;
Washington State University allows residents to earn eleven
different degrees via distance learning; and the East Jefferson
Education Consortium allows individuals to pursue a variety of
degree opportunities through the 12 universities and educational
organizations that have partnered with Peninsula College in this
consortium. The partnering entities - in addition to Peninsula
College - include Centrum Center for the Arts; Chapman University
Bangor Campus; City University; Port Townsend Marine Science
Center; Southern Illinois University Program in Workforce Education
and Development (offered at Bangor); University of Washington;
Washington State University, and Western Washington University.

Growth Area planning areas. These areas are located on Figure A.09
and are described as follows:
Harbor
The Harbor planning area includes all shoreline areas adjacent to
Port Angeles Harbor and contains the Coast Guard Station, the City-
operated boat ramps, Harborview Park, and the McKinley Paper
Company Mill, all on Ediz Hook. The historic downtown and waterfront
are also essential parts of this sub-area. The boat haven marina, log
export terminal, the Coho Ferry terminal, and City Pier Park line the
waterfront. Entertainment activities (movie theater, bookstores,
antique shops, galleries, historic underground tour and restaurants)
abound within the pedestrian-oriented central business district.
Also in the Harbor planning area is the former Rayonier Mill site. The
mill has been closed since 1997, and has been demolished. The site
is undergoing remediation for clean-up of materials left from the
previous mill operation. The site is intended to become available for
redevelopment in the future. In 2013, the City purchased a five million-
gallon storage tank that remained on the site and has incorporated the
tank into its stormwater management facilities for the remediation of
combined sewer overflows into Port Angeles Harbor.
Northwest
The Northwest planning area covers the western edge of the city lying
west of Tumwater Creek and north of Fairchild International Airport.
This area is comprised largely of older homes, however recent growth
pressure has led to new subdivisions and home construction in the
area. There is a commercial area located at 8th and "C" Street, serving
the residents of the west end of the City. A pocket of industrial/
commercial activities is located along the Tumwater Truck Route near
the US 101 junction. This area of town has limited access because of the
Tumwater Creek ravine and the bluffs. The Northwest Planning Area has
the largest segment of undeveloped residential land within the current
City limits.
Southwest
The Southwest planning area includes Fairchild International Airport,
the Clallam County Fairgrounds, Ocean View Cemetery, the Port
Angeles Regional Transfer Station, The Extreme Sports Park, Fairchild
International Airport and Lincoln Park. In 2005, the city annexed 358
acres of land into the southwest planning area. Much of the area is
included in the Eclipse Industrial Park. Industrial development is located
at the airport industrial park, and the area was annexed in 2005. A few
homes lie within the City limits along Lower Elwha Road, but otherwise

Remnant properties in the UGA that are located south of the city
limits and east of Valley Creek are considered to be in this UGA until
annexation occurs, whereby they will be considered to be part of the
adjacent planning area. Policies for this planning area are adopted by
Clallam County as a part of the Port Angeles Regional Comprehensive
Plan.
Western UGA
The Western UGA is generally the area west and south of the City
limits. Remnant properties in the UGA that are located south of the
pre-2005 city limits, north of Highway 101 and west of Tumwater Creek
as far as Reddick Road are considered to be in this UGA until annexation
occurs, whereby they will be considered to be part of the adjacent
planning area. Policies for this planning area are adopted by Clallam
County as a part of the Port Angeles Regional Comprehensive Plan.
Neighborhoods
The City's planning areas are made up of 18 separate neighborhoods.
The distinct neighborhoods are described in the following sections.
Downtown
The downtown neighborhood is the smallest neighborhood,
extending north from the marine bluff to the waterfront and east
from Valley Street to Chase Street on the east, and extending east
along the Waterfront Trail to Vine Street (extended). The Downtown
neighborhood is the traditional community center of the City. Many of
the structures are two stories tall, with a few having residential uses on
the second floor, or are used for offices. Many others are in disrepair,
or are vacant. Buildings in the downtown area span several decades
and architectural styles, some dating to the early 20th century. Few
structures are more than two stories tall. The Lee Plaza is the major
residential structure in the downtown area, and is managed by the
Clallam County Housing Authority for low-income individuals. The
City's Comprehensive Plan and zoning ordinance support increased
residential uses in the downtown.
The downtown is a walkable neighborhood, with ample sidewalk
areas, mid-block crosswalks and a large variety of eateries and
gathering places. A locally-owned natural foods market, specializing
in organic products and locally-grown produce anchors the west end
of the downtown area. Washington State Department of Health and
Human Services operates out of a downtown location. Ample parking
is scattered throughout the downtown area. There are no longer any
large anchor chain stores in the Downtown, however there are many
individual shops providing unique items, such as beads, books, candy,

brewing supplies, boutique clothing, athletic

Several City projects have been undertaken in
the downtown in recent years. Water mains,
sewer lines, sidewalks and street trees have
been replaced. The sidewalks are constructed
of pavers to enhance the aesthetics of the
C area.

Pine Hill
The Pine hill neighborhood extends from the
center of Valley Creek ravine on the east to the
center of Tumwater Creek ravine on the west.
The northern boundary of the neighborhood is
the marine bluff and the southern boundary is
Highway 101.
Pine Hill neighborhood is one of the older
central city neighborhoods. The urban
character of this neighborhood is similar to
several other older neighborhoods, typically
featuring 7,000 square-foot lots and standard
grid pattern streets. The homes in this area
typically are older structures built in the early
20th century, with a variety of more recent
infill homes scattered throughout the area.
The predominant style of house is typically
American Craftsman.

EXHIBIT B
The area is generally level, with a slight rise from north to south. This
aspect limits views towards the water (north) but many homes have
views of the Olympic Mountains to the south.
Very few commercial uses exist in this neighborhood. Those
commercial uses that do exist are located along the 8th Street corridor.
The Pine Hill neighborhood is only served by transit along 8th Street.
Sidewalks do exist throughout the neighborhood.
West End
The West End neighborhood extends west from 'M' Street to the
marine bluff, and south from 10th Street to 18th Street, and is one of
the least-developed areas of the city. Larger-lot zoning (up to 11,000
square feet) and the allowance for curvilinear streets and cul-de-sacs
result in a more suburban character. The neighborhood contains five
different zone designations, allowing a range of densities from less
than four dwelling units per acre to 12.44 dwelling units per acre.
Two residential manufactured home parks exist in the neighborhood.
Serenity House of Clallam County, Clallam County Housing Authority,
and Habitat for Humanity all have developed housing for low-income
families in the area.
Much of this area remains undeveloped with large tracts of forested
land. Two areas in the neighborhood have been set aside and used by
industrial interests to store low-hazard waste materials, making those
sites unlikely to be redeveloped in the near future.
Several newer (1970s to current) subdivisions have been developed in
this neighborhood, however not all of the developed lots are occupied
yet. Many excellent building sites are developed with urban services
but remain vacant. Homes in the area are newer, many of them single-
story, ranch style structures.
Although the development in this area is newer than other
neighborhoods, streets are developed with few sidewalks for
pedestrian use. No commercial services are available in the area. Due to
this limitation, the neighborhood is not considered highly walkable. The
Olympic Discovery Trail spans the neighborhood following Milwaukee
Drive from 10th Street to 18th Street. The City-owned Ocean View
Cemetery is located at the northwest limit of the neighborhood.
Views from this neighborhood are primarily to the Olympic Mountains;
the few developments west of Milwaukee Drive have outstanding views
of the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
Airport
The airport neighborhood extends west from 'M' Street to the western
City limit and south from 18th Street to the City's southern limits,

and is the City's largest neighborhood with 1,217 acres. The primary
land use is the William Fairchild Airport. The airport also contains an
industrial park situated on the north side of the runways and south of
18th Street. The neighborhood also contains the City's refuse transfer
station, recycling center, and compost facility. The Extreme Sports Park
is located in the neighborhood's southwest corner. Several large tracts
of forested land and farm sites exist in this neighborhood. This is the
least populated neighborhood in the City.
Cherry Hill
The Cherry Hill neighborhood extends from Lincoln Street on the east
to Valley Creek on the west, and from Lauridsen Boulevard on the
south to marine bluff on the north. This is an older neighborhood, and
contains a large portion of the City's High Density Residential zoning
located at the north end of the neighborhood. The southern portion
of the neighborhood is primarily single-family residential zoning. The
8th Street commercial corridor separates the two zoning districts, and

a second commercial corridor extends north and south along the west
side of Lincoln Street.
The neighborhood contains three small parks and the east slope of the
Valley Creek ravine. Homes in the area are mostly older structures.
Peabody Creek
The Peabody Creek neighborhood extends east of Lincoln Street to
Race Street, and from 8th Street on the south to the Georgiana/Front
alley on the north. The boundaries of the Peabody Creek neighborhood
are all comprised of commercial corridors, with high-density residential
uses west of Peabody Creek and single family residential uses east of
the creek. Peabody Creek Ravine divides the neighborhood diagonally
from the southeast to the northwest. The neighborhood contains Jesse
Webster Park, Erikson Park, and the Dream Playground; it also contains
City Hall, Clallam County Courthouse, and the Senior Center.
Crown
The Crown neighborhood extends from 'I' Street on the east to the
marine bluff on the west and from 10th Street on the south to the top
of the marine bluff on the north. The Crown neighborhood contains
Crown Park which provides panoramic views from the bluff top.
Hamilton Elementary School is located within this neighborhood. The
neighborhood is primarily a single-family residential neighborhood
and contains no commercial zones. Much of the housing in the area is
newer and there are still areas that are undeveloped.
Ediz Hook
The Ediz Hook neighborhood is made up of Ediz Hook itself along with
the waterfront area extending west of Valley Street. The neighborhood
is unique in that there are no residential uses in the neighborhood,
with the exception of full-time residential use of boats in the marina.

The primary uses are industrial, with a few commercial activities that
support the industries. Several large industries make up the major
uses, including the McKinley Paper Company mill, Westport Marine
and Platypus Marine. Tesoro Petroleum provides fueling operations
for large ocean-going vessels. Icicle Seafoods and the Puget Sound
Pilots office and facility are located at the east end of Ediz Hook. The
Port of Port Angeles owns and operates several industrial/commercial
operations along the waterfront, including log storage and bark
removal, topside repair of large ocean-going vessels, and berthing of
navy support boats. They also own and operate the Boat Haven Marina.
The Native American village Tse-wit-wen is also located within the
Ediz Hook neighborhood. Ediz Hook itself provides outdoor recreation
opportunities through the Sail and Paddle Park at the west end of the
spit, and Harbor View Park at the east end. The parks are connected by
an extension of the Olympic Discovery Trail. A boat launch is provided
at the east end of the spit and at the Boat Haven Marina. Ediz Hook
has recently undergone extensive habitat restoration efforts led by the
Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe.
Georgiana
The Georgiana neighborhood extends north from the Georgiana/Front
Street alley to the waterfront, and extends from Vine Street on the
west to the Whites Creek Ravine on the west. Although this is primarily
a single-family residential neighborhood, the Olympic Medical Center's
hospital and associated medical support offices make up the bulk of
uses in the central portion of the neighborhood. Two parks are located

This neighborhood contains a large private golf course, the only golf
course in the City. Also contained within this neighborhood is the
City's wastewater treatment plant, which now includes a five-million
gallon storage tank recently acquired from Rayonier corporation. The
area includes the eastern portion of the Rayonier mill site, which is
currently unused and awaiting further cleanup efforts. Recently, the
City constructed a new bridge spanning Ennis Creek to provide an
appropriate crossing for sewer and stormwater pipes. The bridge is
also capable of carrying vehicular traffic and the Olympic Discovery/
Waterfront Trail.
Housing
In 1990, 7,553 dwelling units were located in Port Angeles. By 1992,
units had increased by 422 (or 5.6%) to a total of 7,975 dwelling
units. By 2004, units had increased by another 797 (or 10%) to a
total of 9,479 units.

EXHIBIT B
In the decade of the 1990s, the City of Port Angeles grew at a slow
rate of 3.9%. The growth in the UGA during the same time was 6.3%.
During the period of 1996 to 2003, building permit activity showed
that only 10.7% of the county-wide residential building units were
constructed in the City of Port Angeles, while 14.2% of the county's
residential construction was in rural areas of the Port Angeles
planning region. Recent amendments to the Comprehensive Plan are
intended to reverse the City's no-growth trend.
Currently, the City has 6,845 parcels that are zoned for residential
use. Of those residentially-zoned parcels, 567 are developed with
complete infrastructure and remain available for building. The City
currently has a number of large undeveloped areas, and based on
anticipated densities, currently undeveloped parcels would provide
area for 2,280 additional dwelling units.
Transportation
The Regional Transportation Planning Organization (RTPO)
has designated Port Angeles as a primary center of mixed-use
development, and the City's UGA has been identified as a secondary
center of mixed use development in the Regional Transportation
Plan. Goals and policies in the Growth Management Element of this
plan support focusing new growth and mixed-use opportunities in
the City and UGA.
The road network in the City of Port Angeles is characterized by a
gridded street pattern that is oriented east to west (parallel to the
waterfront) and north to south. This pattern shifts slightly south
of Lauridsen Boulevard, where the street orientation shifts to
match the platting pattern established by the County before City
boundaries were expanded. The regular geometry of this pattern
is generally retained, except where topography of the foothills,
deep ravines or bluffs along the Strait of Juan de Fuca force road
realignment. Some areas located in the western portion of the
City also diverge from the grid pattern, forming a more curvilinear,
suburban-style pattern.
Street grades are moderate in most areas, adapting to area
topography - which rises from the waterfront and gently undulates
as the foothills flatten to meet the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The most
unique characteristic of the City's street network is the way it is
interrupted by several deep ravines, which bisect east-west street
connectivity and results in a limited number of streets that run
continuously from one end of the City to the other.

There is one designated truck route in the City that runs from east to

(State Route 117) and along Tumwater Truck Route south to US
101. All roads in Port Angeles including highways of statewide and
regional significance operate at LOS "D" or better.
The City of Port Angeles is served by Clallam Transit, the Public
Transit Benefit Area (PTBA) Agency that serves the Clallam County
with a combination of scheduled and para-transit services. Clallam
Transit currently identifies four routes that circulate within the City
limits. These routes all originate from the downtown area. The
four routes provide service to east City limits at the Plaza shopping
center, the west side to the Elwha Tribal Center and Fairchild
International Airport, the near west side to the fairgrounds, and
south through the central portion of the City to Ahlvers Road. In
addition to local in-city transit Clallam Transit provides commuter
service between Port Angeles and Sequim and Forks.
Clallam Transit System ridership has shown an overall increase
in numbers on all routes in the past decade. This may in part be
contributed to the status of the economy during that period.
A private carrier, Dungeness Lines, provides daily service between
Port Angeles and the Seattle area, including regular stops at the
major hospitals, the Seattle Greyhound Bus Station, and SeaTac
International Airport.
The Port of Port Angeles is responsible for most operations along
the waterfront, including ownership of the Black Ball Ferry Terminal,
the Boat Haven Marina, and other waterfront properties supporting
water related industry. The Port is also responsible for operations at
Fairchild International Airport and the Airport Industrial Park.
The William R. Fairchild International Airport is located
approximately three miles southwest of the central city and serves
a combination of commercial and private aviation demands in
the region. The airport is owned and operated by the Port of
Port Angeles and is classified as a commercial service airport by
both Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Washington
State Department of Transportation, Aviation Division (WSDOT
Aviation). The airport serves the commercial service needs of the
entire Peninsula including Clallam, Jefferson and portions of Mason
Counties and the general aviation needs of Clallam and portions of
Jefferson Counties. The airport has more than 800 acres of property,
with 690 in aeronautical use, and 110 in industrial park use.

Urban Services
Police
The Port Angeles Police Department currently provides police
protection within the city limits of Port Angeles and operates PENCOM,
the 9-1-1 emergency dispatch center for almost all police and fire
agencies in Clallam County. The police headquarters are located at
City Hall. The Department has 62 personnel; 31 commissioned police
officer positions (authorized 33), one (1) half-time commissioned officer,
two (2) reserve officers, 20 communications officers, seven (7) clerical
positions, and, one (1) part-time parking enforcement position. There
are also 15 civilian volunteers associated with the department.
Fire
The Port Angeles Fire Department provides fire response and advanced
life support emergency medical services within the city limits of Port
Angeles. The Fire Department headquarters station is located at 5th
and Laurel Streets. The Department has 23 career personnel, including
21 firefighters who are cross-trained as emergency medical technicians,
with 11 certified as paramedics. In addition to career personnel, the
Department has an active volunteer component that is consolidated
with the adjoining fire district.
City Parks & Recreation Facilities
The City Parks and Recreation Department maintains over 114 acres of
developed park land, another 81.5 acres of undeveloped land reserved
for future park development, and 91.8 acres of undeveloped lands set
aside for protection as open space. The Parks Department maintains
14 playground equipment sites, 13 baseball and/or softball fields, 9
football and/or soccer fields, and 12 tennis courts. Approximately 10
acres are taken up by community facilities. The William Shore Memorial
Swimming Pool, Senior and Community Services Center and the
Vern Burton Community Center provide a wide range of year-around
recreational services.
Civic Field provides a full athletic complex for soccer, football and
baseball, with lighting for nighttime activities, concessions, covered
stadium seating, and locker rooms. The Carnegie Library has been
converted to a museum leased by the Clallam County Historical Society
and neighbors the City's former fire hall. The City owns and operates
the 41 acre Ocean View Cemetery.
Other city facilities include the Feiro Marine Life Center, located in
City Pier Park, and a traditional native long house, the Loomis Building
and several other log structures at Lincoln Park. The Port Angeles Fine
Arts Center is located in Webster Woods Park. Two public walkways

connecting the downtown area with the residential area at the top of
the bluff are owned and maintained by the City. One of those walkways
terminates at the Conard Dyar Memorial Fountain in downtown. The
City operates a boat launch ramp and floats for boat moorage on the
eastern end of Ediz Hook. The City pier also provides moorage for
transient boaters.
The City maintains the Olympic Discovery/Waterfront Trail from Morse
Creek to the Coast Guard Base entry on Ediz Hook and through the city
to the western city limits at Lower Elwha Road.
Water Utility
The City of Port Angeles water service area includes the land within
the city boundaries, along with services within Clallam County PUD
No. 1, 52 Dry Creek customers, 5 Black Diamond customers, and one
government account outside the city limits. The City also provides
wholesale water to Clallam County PUD No. 1, subject to certain
conditions consistent with GMA. In the City's 2002 Comprehensive
Water Plan, the future service area limit was from Morse Creek to the
Elwha River and bordered on the south by the Olympic National Park.
The current water supply for the City is from the Elwha River. The
Elwha River Ranney Well System with a minimum yield of 11 million
gallons was originally constructed in 1977 with major renovations made
during the Elwha Dam removal project started in 2010. This source
provides for domestic and commercial and some industrial needs of the
City. There is also a separate industrial water supply line serving the
McKinley Paper Co. Mill.
Stormwater Management
The City maintains all public storm sewers, culverts, and stormwater
facilities, including the WSDOT conduits, culverts, and stormwater
facilities along the US 101 corridor within the city limits. The City
is currently making a major shift in its approach to stormwater
management, moving away from the more traditional system of hard
surfaces draining to catch basins and being piped to the nearest water
body to a more natural acting system of allowing stormwater to be
absorbed into the earth through the installation of rain gardens and
enhancing vegetative cover, including vegetated roof systems.
Wastewater Utility
The City's wastewater system includes a wastewater treatment plant
(WWTP) built in 1968-69 as a primary treatment facility, and upgraded
to a secondary wastewater treatment plant built in 1994. The plant
is the trickling filter/solids contact treatment system. Biosolids are
hauled to the City's composting facility where it is composted and sold
for beneficial reuse. The sewer conveyance system includes 119 miles

EXHIBIT B
of sanitary and combined sewer pipe ranging from 4 to 36 inches in
diameter, 17 pump stations, and two marine out-falls. The treatment
plant was modified most recently in 2014, when the first phase of the
CSO Reduction program was completed. Modifications included a 4.9
million gallon storage tank for temporary storage of peak flows of
sewage diluted by stormwater (combined sewage) during rain events,
a refurbished deep water marine outfall providing improved dispersion
of WWTP effluent, improvements to the trickling filters and headworks,
and associated elements. The wastewater treatment plant (WWTP)
located at the west end of Ennis Creek road, has a treatment capacity
expected to be adequate beyond 2021. The wastewater treatment
plant (WWTP) is rated at 10.8 million gallons per day (MGD) maximum
month design flow, and can handle peak combined sewer flows of up
to 20 MGD. The WWTP treated an average of 2.5 MGD of domestic
sewage in 2014. Peak system flow capacities average 3.3 MGD (dry
weather) with a maximum peak flow of 13.4 MGD. The peak system
flow for 2014 was 9.86 MGD.
The second and final phase of the CSO Reduction program is under
construction, and scheduled for completion in 2016. When complete,
combined sewer overflows to Port Angeles harbor will be reduced
to less than once per year per outfall location. By design, overflows
will occur at the 8000 foot long refurbished marine outfall before
they occur at the two near-shore outfalls. One outfall location will
be eliminated entirely. This represents a significant reduction, from
an average of over 70 overflow events per year, and is a big pollution
control achievement for the City.
The Utility serves unincorporated areas of Clallam County (the Eastern
and Western Urban Growth areas, and the Lower Elwha reservation
land) and treats 2 million gallons annually of septage generated in
Clallam and Jefferson County that is trucked to the WWTP. The WWTP
treats about 0.5 million gallons of leachate generated by the COPA
landfill and the Rayonier Mount Pleasant landfill annually.
The sewer system serves approximately 3,700 acres in Port Angeles.
The city has mostly 8-inch local sanitary sewers and even some small
6-inch. However, the city's original collection system was designed
as a combined sewer system with storm water. There were no storm
sewers in the city until the 1950s. The existing storm sewer system
grew in bits and pieces as individual renovation projects and Local
Improvement Districts (LID) responded to local problems. The storm
sewers are 6" and 8" diameter due to the steep terrain of the city.
The existing storm sewers run primarily in the north/south "short
block" orientation picking up catch basins, which happen to be at the
east/west "long block" intersections. In summary, the old downtown
has combined sewers and the rest of the city has varying degrees of
partially separated sewers.

The Wastewater Utility employs a Source Control Specialist as part of
the Pretreatment program, to better control what comes to the WWTP
and to provide education and technical assistance to business owners.
Several sources of grease and oils have been identified and remedied to

The Wastewater Utility staff operates, inspects, maintains and repairs
the sewer conveyance system, the pump stations, and the WWTP. The
Utility funds an organized program of Capital Improvement projects
that is approved by City Council each year and includes a six-year plan
for future projects.
Solid Waste Utility
The Solid Waste Utility operated by the Port Angeles Public Works
and Utilities Department provides solid waste services. Residential
customer's waste is picked up weekly or biweekly and collection is
mandatory. Commercial customers are picked up 6 days a week.
Curbside yard waste and recycling is offered and provided by a private
contractor. Current participation in the curbside recycling program
is 80% per cent of the residential customers. Curbside participation
in the yard waste program is around 50% per cent of the residential
customers.
The City of Port Angeles owns and operates the Port Angeles transfer
station. The Port Angeles Regional Transfer Station began operation
in 2007 after conversion from a landfill. The landfill conversion was
mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration because of the
potential for scavenger birds at the landfill interfering with air traffic
from the adjacent airport. This site accepts municipal solid waste from
residential, commercial, and industrial customers throughout Clallam
County. The Port Angeles Regional Transfer Station does not accept
out-of-county waste. Recycling drop boxes are provided and accept
glass, aluminum, and paper. Used oil, antifreeze, and batteries are also
accepted at the site. Municipal solid waste is transported to regional
landfills in Eastern Washington or Oregon.
A second issue related to the landfill has been the release of buried
refuse onto the beach as normal bluff erosion continued. Two major
projects have been undertaken by the City to relocate waste materials
and stabilize the bluff erosion to resolve the problem.
A composting facility for managing green yard waste received from the
public, curbside yard waste pick-up and biosolids from the wastewater
treatment plant at the facility. Yard waste and biosolids are processed
then tested and becomes finished compost available for sale to the
public.

Schools
The Port Angeles School District Number 121 serves the City of
Port Angeles and its surrounding community. The District operates
five elementary schools, one middle school (grades 7-8), one high
school, one alternative high school, and is host to the North Olympic
Peninsula Skills Center. Within the City of Port Angeles there are three
elementary schools; Franklin Elementary, Hamilton Elementary, and
Jefferson Elementary. Dry Creek Elementary School is located west
of the city limits and Roosevelt Elementary is located east of the City
limits. Stevens Middle School, Port Angeles High School and Lincoln
High School provide for secondary education. The Skills Center, working
closely with Peninsula College and five neighboring school districts
- Cape Flattery, Crescent, Quileute, Port Angeles and Sequim School
Districts - provides the latest vocational/technical education in a
competency-based learning environment.
Peninsula College, with its main campus located in the foothills of the
Olympic Mountains and overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca, provides
a vital center for higher education and diverse cultural opportunities,
enhancing and strengthening community bonds for the residents of
the North Olympic Peninsula. College programs include traditional
academic transfer offerings, professional-technical training, Basic
Education for Adults and adult continuing education, on-line learning
courses and a center for baccalaureate degrees, allowing students
many educational options.
In addition to the many associate degree and certificate programs,
Peninsula College offers a baccalaureate degree in Applied
Management. The college also works with key university partners,
providing numerous opportunities for residents to earn bachelor
degrees locally. These partners include City University, Western
Washington University, Goddard College and Evergreen State College.

tribes, private businesses and others. The college offers classes, training
and resources in support of workforce development and community
enrichment.
The college currently serves over 5,000 students and employs 145
full-time faculty and staff and approximately 390 part-time faculty and
staff.
Economic Development
Clallam County and the City of Port Angeles are rich in natural
resources. The Olympic Peninsula has proved to be one of the
country's most productive timber growing areas, while the Strait
of Juan de Fuca has provided the area with a vast fishery. However,
recent declines in these resource industries have had a major impact
on the economy of both Clallam County and the City of Port Angeles.
The Rayonier pulp mill closed in 1997 putting up to 200 people out
of work, the K-Ply plywood mill was closed and demolished in 2011,
and Green Creek lumber mill closed in 2014. Currently, McKinley
Paper Company paper mill and Port Angeles Hardwoods lumber mill
remain in operation within the City limits and Interfor Pacific lumber
mill operates just west of the city.
The decline of salmon and the subsequent listing of Chinook salmon,
summer chum, steelhead and bull trout as endangered species have
reduced the commercial and sport fishing industries dramatically.
These economic declines are being replaced to some extent by
service industries that are driven by tourism and the popularity
of the Olympic Peninsula as a retirement destination. The City has
worked with local tribes, state and federal agencies and local citizen
and non-governmental organizations to restore salmon habitats and
runs throughout Clallam County.
Port Angeles is also striving to strengthen its marine trades
and industries. Westport Shipyard continues to operate a yacht
manufacturing facility in Port Angeles, producing high-end yachts
for the world market. Armstrong Marine has moved into the city
and produces a variety of aluminum boats and Platypus Marine
continues to maintain and repair boats at its harbor location.
Major shipments of forest products to Asian markets have
historically provided a strong market. The log export segment of the
local economy has grown in recent years while value added wood
products segment has declined. Old growth timber harvesting is
expected to be reduced significantly in coming years due to various
government restrictions.
A•38 City of Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan
06/20/2017 F - 148
EXHIBIT B
In light of the recent developments in the timber and fishery
industries, it is important for Port Angeles to develop and improve
its other economic resources, such as technology, tourism and
manufacturing.
Port Angeles is part of a major international tourist route. The
presence of the Olympic National Park with over three million
visitors a year, an international ferry providing service to Victoria
Canada carrying approximately 400,000 passengers per year,
combined with the local freshwater and ocean sport fishing brings a
steady flow of tourists to the City, creating an important economic
resource. Eco-tourism has grown with the removal of the two hydro-
electric dams from the Elwha River. Port Angeles in recent years has
established itself as a vibrant arts and performance center.
In general, the local economy appears to be relatively stable despite
much uncertainty in the timber harvesting and log exports segment.
Growth in the retirement community has been continuing, and
tourism is expanding rapidly. The forest products industry will most
likely stabilize at a lower level of activity from past years.

Retail or other commercial uses, usually one-story high and one-store deep,
that front on an arterial street with individual access points. Strip commercial
development differs from central business districts, shopping centers, or
other cluster commercial developments in at least two of the following
characteristics:
1) There are no provisions for pedestrian access between individual uses
2) The uses are only one-store deep
3) The buildings are arranged linearly with individual street access points
rather than clustered, and
4) There is no design integration among the buildings.

This memorandum summarizes an intersection and roadway segment level of service (LOS)
assessment, supplemental to Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element, for state
highways within the City of Port Angeles. This assessment includes a discussion data sources,
traffic growth forecasts, existing and future year (2035) LOS, and how LOS deficiencies will be
addressed by the Transportation Element.
DATA COLLECTION
Existing traffic data including weekday PM peak hour intersection counts and average daily traffic
(ADT) along roadway segments was compiled from the following sources:
• Port Angeles Waterfront and Transportation Improvement Plan (2012)
• Lauridsen Boulevard Bridge Replacement Project (2014)
• Nippon Paper Industries USA Company Biomass Cogeneration Project EIS (2010)
• WSDOT Traffic Data GeoPortal (ADT counts current to 2015)
Additionally, a weekday PM peak hour intersection count at E 1st Street (US 101) / E Front Street/
S Golf Course Road count was conducted in April 2017.
TRAFFIC GROWTH FORECAST
The Growth Management Act requires a city's Transportation Element to include traffic forecasts
that are consistent with Land Use Element growth assumptions and describe conditions at least

10 years into the future. Previously, Fehr & Peers developed a citywide travel model for the Port
Angeles Waterfront and Transportation Plan that includes existing and 2035 forecasting scenarios.
For the 2035 scenario, it was assumed that existing land uses and regional trip-making would
grow at a rate of 1.5% per year. These growth assumptions are in line with the Comprehensive
Plan local population growth projections, which also estimate annual growth between 2010 and
2035 to occur at 1.5% per year (Pg. 30, Table 7). However, it should be noted that between 2010
and 2015, the City population grew from 19,038 to an estimated 19,448, a rate of 0.4% per year.
Because growth has been somewhat lower than projected, the traffic growth forecasts developed
from the citywide travel model may be considered conservative.
INTERSECTION LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS
The following intersections were analyzed for PM peak hour under existing and forecasted 2035
conditions:
1. US 101/ SR 117
2. US 101 (E Lauridsen Boulevard)/ S Lincoln Street
3. US 101 (S Lincoln Street)/ E 8th Street
4. US 101 (N Lincoln Street)/ E 1st Street
5. US 101 (N Lincoln Street)/ E Front
6. US 101 (E 1st Street)/ S Race Street
7. US 101 (E Front Street)/ S Race Street
8. US 101 (E 1st Street & E Front Street)/Golf Course Road
9. SR 117/ Marine Drive
Level of service (LOS) and average intersection delay was calculated for each intersection by the
methods described in the following sections.
Signalized Intersection Methodology. Traffic operations at signalized intersections are evaluated
using the LOS method described in Chapter 16 of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). A
signalized intersection's LOS is based on the weighted average control delay measured in seconds
per vehicle and includes initial deceleration delay, queue move-up time, stopped delay, and final
of Poa,qN

EXHIBIT B
acceleration. Table 1 summarizes the relationship between the control delay and LOS for
signalized intersections.
Unsignalized Intersection Methodology. Traffic conditions at unsignalized intersections are
evaluated using the method from Chapter 17 of the HCM. With this method, operations are
defined by the average control delay per vehicle (measured in seconds) for each movement that
must yield the right-of-way. For all-way stop-controlled intersections, the average control delay is
calculated for the intersection as a whole. At two-way or side street-controlled intersections, the
control delay (and LOS) is calculated for each controlled movement, the left turn movement from
the major street, and the entire intersection. Table 1 summarizes the relationship between delay
and LOS for unsignalized intersections.

LOS Standards. The Capital Facilities Element of the Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan states that
"all arterial streets shall function at an average daily Level of Service (LOS) of D or better." In
addition, it notes that Highways of Statewide Significance (US 101) should function at LOS D or
better, per the WSDOT and the Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization.
LOS Results. Traffic operations were analyzed using the Synchro 9 software package. Synchro
calculations are based on procedures outlined in the HCM and described in the preceding
sections for signalized and unsignalized intersections. Table 2 shows the LOS results for the

existing and forecasted 2035 weekday PM peak hour. Under existing conditions, all intersections
operate at LOS C or better. Under the 2035 forecast conditions, several intersections along the US
101 corridor would degrade to LOS D operations, but none would exceed the LOS D threshold
established by WSDOT and the Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization.

ROADWAY SEGMENT LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS
The following roadway segments were analyzed for PM peak hour under existing and forecasted
2035 conditions:

6. US 101 (E 1st Street)from S Lincoln Street to S Golf Course Road
7. US 101 from S Golf Course Road to N Baker Street (East City Limits)
Level of service (LOS) was calculated for each intersection by the methods described in the
following sections.
Roadway Segment LOS Methodology. Roadway segment LOS can be measured by comparing bi-
directional traffic volume to Maximum Service Volume (MSV). For this analysis, each study
segment is assigned a maximum PM peak hour service volume, or capacity. If the actual two-way
PM peak hour volume on the segment exceeds the MSV, then the segment does not meet the
LOS standard. WSDOT does not maintain a protocol for selecting MSVs for state routes, so a set
of tables developed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) based on the Highway
Capacity Manual 5t" Edition (Transportation Research Board, 2010) was used to assign MSVs to
the roadway segments and determine grade A — F LOS thresholds. These FDOT tables can be
found in Appendix A. The MSV threshold is determined by factors such as area type (urban or
rural context), number of lanes, presence of median, speed, and presence of turn lanes.
LOS Standards. The Capital Facilities Element of the Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan states that
"all arterial streets shall function at an average daily Level of Service (LOS) of D or better." In
addition, it notes that Highways of Statewide Significance (US 101) should function at LOS D or
better, per the WSDOT and the Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization.
LOS Results. The calculation of roadway segment MSV thresholds and LOS grades is summarized
in Table 3. Under existing conditions, all roadway segments operate at LOS D or better. Under the
2035 forecast conditions, one roadway segment (US 101 from S Golf Course Road to N Baker
Street) would operate at LOS F, exceeding the LOS D threshold established by WSDOT and the
Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization. As discussed in the following section,
the Port Angeles Transportation Element and Capital Facilities Element contain several policies
and objectives that would address congestion and capacity on this corridor. All other roadway
segments would operate at LOS D or better under 2035 conditions.

Angeles Transportation Element and Capital Facilities Element contain several policies and
objectives that would address this deficiency through planning and inter-agency coordination:
• Transportation Element, Goal B, Policy 3 — The City should facilitate on additional route
for focal cross-town traffic across White's Creek ultimately connecting with US 101.
• Transportation Element, Goal B, Policy 19 — The City should work with other
jurisdictions to identify and protect a right-of-way for a second street accessing the City
from the East.
• Transportation Element, Goal B, Objective 5 — The City will prepare a study to evaluate
options for easterly access across Whites and Ennis Creeks in the vicinity of Golf Course
Road.
• Transportation Element, Goal B, Objective 19 — The City will coordinate with the
County, RTPO, and State and Federal agencies in the study of a possible future US 101
corridor including the Heart of the Hills Parkway and Coastal Corridor concepts. East of
Race Street, the alternate focal cross-town route (along Lauridsen Boulevard) will not be
considered as a future US 101 corridor.
• Capital Facilities Element, Goal A, Policy 7 — The comprehensive service and facilities
plan for streets, bikeways, and pedestrian walkways should include a future US 101 corridor
to meet long-term focal and regional transportation needs.

Amendment 3. Document rearrangement
This amendment includes a complete rearrangement and reformat of the Comprehensive Plan document
itself. In summary the rearrangement includes the following improvements and changes:
• The entire document was reformatted from Microsoft Word to Adobe InDesign, allowing the
incorporation of images, tables and graphics, and will better facilitate any future revisions and
additions. The document may also be readily output to suit the City's needs-whether for print,
web format, "interactive"viewing, etc. The document is configured for high-quality printing.
• Developed a front and back cover graphic, intended to be printed out on 9"x 12"card stock, and
spiral or three-ring bound as desired.
• Blank pages are included to facilitate the beginning of each chapter on the right-hand side of the
spread and to orient page numbers to the outside edges of the layout. The text"This page
intentionally left blank"will be included where these occur.
• Reordering of the existing plan document chapters where the"Community Profile" and
"Definitions" and"GMA Requirements"become appendices in the back(Appendices A, B and
C) of the amended document, allowing the element chapters to be better highlighted. Along with
this change, each element chapter incorporates a brief description of the purpose of each tying
them to the Community Vision.
• Incorporated new language into"Chapter 1 —Introduction" section of the plan that strengthens
the Comprehensive Plan's ties to the City's Strategic Plan, Capital Facilities Plan, Budget, Water
Facilities Plan and Transportation Faculties Plan. This new language is the first thing a reader will
read when reviewing the document.
• Enhanced the community vision section within"Chapter 1-Introduction",by providing the reader
a more accessible and pleasing experience, and including representative images for each topical
listing.
• Provided an organizational diagram(Figure 1.02)in"Chapter 1-Introduction",helping to better
illustrate the relationship between vision,goals,policies, objectives and other implementing
plans.
• Added three definitions to"Appendix B—Definitions", for the terms"Goal,""Policy," and
"Objective." Staff considers these terms to be important concepts in helping make plans more
user-friendly,useful and understandable, and helping to foster more consensus on commonly-
held values(goals, for instance), and moving more finite topics to policy or action-level
descriptors(or in PA's case, "Objectives").
• Numbered all of the plan's Goals, Policies and Objectives, aiding future review and citation of
these.
• A copy of the adopting ordinance will be incorporated in the final amended copy.
• A 11"x 17"or similar sized print of the plan's Land Use Map will be created as a fold-out
inclusion in the land use element, "Chapter3 —Land Use", since it's essentially a graphic policy.

Amendment 4.Implementation matrix
This amendment adds a new chapter, "Chapter 11-Implementation",which includes an implementation
matrix of the Comprehensive Plan's objectives,which were previously included under each plan element
section. The goal of the implementation matrix is to identify specific task items prioritized to conform to
City Council policy priorities, listing responsible implementation entities and likely partners. Several
objectives of the current Comprehensive Plan were removed with this incorporation of an implementation
matrix, and are included below:
Objectives That Have Been Removed or Recast as Policies
Note: This list includes objectives that have been completely removed, objectives that have been
reworded but still essentially exist in the new implementation table are not on this list. Objectives that
have not been removed but rather recast as policies have the policy in italics below it. There are cases
which objectives are reflected in policies, but only objectives that have clearly been recast as a policy are
included on this list.

Executive Summary
The comprehensive plan is the policy foundation for the City, it sets fundamental goals, policies, and
objectives that are the basis for all City actions. The City budget, capital facilities plan, City work
plan, transportation plan, and departmental level of service standards are all based on and are
consistent with comprehensive plan policy.The City's strategic plan is constructed from the
comprehensive plan, specifically addressing how the City will implement comprehensive plan
objectives over the next two years, establishing priorities for action.
The intent of the Comprehensive Plan Implementation Strategy is to ensure the community has
measurable expectations and outcomes with which it can measure the success of the
implementation of the vision and guiding documents.
This plan is intended to provide the communities vision for the next 20 years. The document
principles include providing a user friendly version of the Comprehensive Plan that illustrates and
tracks measurable outcomes. This version is focused on implementation and sets aside background
details and state mandated elements and requirements. A critical expectation is that this document
allows daily use by local community members interested on knowing and being informed about the
implementation timeframes of the Comprehensive Plan. Measurable actions and objectives in the
plan will be updated annually to document the success of the community vision.

Performance Standards
The adoption of performance standards can be useful for the objective evaluation of organizational
effectiveness, with the end result being the attainment of desirable outcomes. Performance standards
are observable, measurable, specific measures of expectations that are typically expressed in terms of
quantity,timeliness, cost-effectiveness, and outcomes.
• Quantity addresses how much work is produced.
• Timeliness addresses how quickly or when the work is accomplished.
• Cost-Effectiveness addresses working within a budget or saving money.
• Outcomes address the extent to which goals have been attained.
In order to be most useful, performance standards written to address these measures should be
reasonable, attainable and when possible, based upon a recognized standard. The standards should be
designed in order to provide a result that can directly lead to the determination of whether or not
desirable outcomes have been achieved.
Within the City organization, there is no "one size fits all" set of performance standards that can be
adopted. That said, it is assumed that there are a number of"universal" performance standards that
will apply to all City Departments. Clearly,the provision of excellent customer service, fiscal
responsibility, stewardship of resources and the recognition of achieving goals are all standards that
should be expected and they are reflections of the values of the organization.
Beyond the performance standards that reflect core organizational values, each individual department
within the City will have unique performance standards that are tailored to the specific outcomes that
are desired. As was mentioned above, these standards could take into consideration the results
(outcomes) that are desired, however specific budget constraints, regulatory requirements, measures of
success and measures of quality should also be considered.
Again, regardless of the performance standards that are used and measured, the end result should be
that they enable the department to gauge whether or not they are achieving the outcomes that they
have determined to be important. It makes sense that the desired outcomes should drive the selection
of performance standards, and not the opposite.

Fire Department Performance Standards
The importance of performance standards for the fire service was recognized by both the
Washington State Legislature and the National Fire Protection Association(NFPA)when, in
2005, Legislature passed SHB 1756, requiring fire departments to extract response data and
evaluate levels of service, deployment methods and performance measures applying to response
time objectives.
Response times are a significant factor when determining the effectiveness of a fire department,
since the goals associated with controlling fires and saving lives are both dependent upon timely
responses. For this reason, the performance standard that most applies to the fire service is a
measure of response times, however the factors of quantity and quality all directly affect
timeliness. Quantity, or the sheer number of calls responded to, will directly impact timeliness.
As the number of calls increases,the number of simultaneous calls increases as well. Response
to simultaneous calls is often delayed and they tax available resources. The cost associated with
calling in off-duty personnel or with adding additional personnel can be significant.
Firefighters respond to a wide variety of situations, including medical emergencies, fires,
traumatic injuries, rescues and hazardous materials incidents. The incidents are never scheduled,
and the response required is most often urgent. The common factor in all of these incidents is
the requirement for the rapid response of trained personnel with adequate resources and
equipment. Measuring this response time is a key to judging the performance of the Department.
Positive outcomes are maximized when response times are reduced.
The performance standards tracked by the fire department are:
• Turnout Time (time from receipt of alarm until crew is enroute
• First Arriving Apparatus at Fire (first arriving fire engine)
• Full First Alarm Fire Response (14 or 15 people, determined by NFPA 17 10)
• EMS Response (first arriving medic unit)
• Hazardous Materials (first arriving apparatus with Operations trained personnel)
• Technical Rescue (first arriving apparatus with Operations trained personnel)
• Marine Response (first arriving personnel on vessel)
• Wildland Fire (first arriving fire engine)
Established times have been set for the aboveAreonse standards. These established times have
been determined as a result of extensive setnt tic study as well as accumulated data from actual
experience.
For emergency medical responses,';�e ureal of the American Medical Association and the
American College of Emergency Ph sicians have identified four minutes or less as the
recommended response time goal for first arriving responders. This recommendation is based
upon the need to prevent brain death in those patients who are in cardiac or respiratory arrest.
These recommendations are reinforced by NFPA 1710, which recommends a four-minute
response for first arriving medical responders with automatic external defibrillator capability.
For fires, time is a critical factor with fire growth. The longer a fire has to grow, the more it will
spread and the more damage will result. NFPA 1710 recommends that the time from when
16
dispatch receives the call,to the time when the first engine arrives at the scene of a fire, should be
six minutes or less. The standard further recommends that by ten minutes, an adequate number of
firefighters should be on scene to safely combat the fire.
While response times and staffing are critical factors in determining the fire department's
effectiveness,we shouldn't forget to evaluate other factors in evaluating our service levels against
our mission's most important outcome goals—saving lives and limiting property damage. For fire
suppression, smoke alarms and fire sprinklers often play a more important role than a fire
department with considerable resources. For EMS, departments that routinely provide CPR and
first aid instruction are more likely to have better outcomes for patients with life-threatening
medical emergencies than departments that don't. Citizens can often provide immediate assistance
to clear a blocked airway, control severe bleeding or maintain oxygen to the brain in cardiac arrest.
In these cases, the citizen rendering immediate care likely has as much to do with patient
survivability as the fire department.

WAS H I N G T O N, U. S. A.CITY COUNCIL MEMO
DATE: June 20, 2017
To: City Council
FROM: WILLIAM BLOOR,CITY ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: Revised Ethics Ordinance— Second Read and Adoption
Summary: Attached is an ordinance that revises the City's current Ethics Ordinance by
adopting the State's Code of Ethics for Municipal Officers, requiring that City elected and
appointed officials receive ethics training annually, and repealing other provisions of the current
ordinance. This ordinance was first presented to Council on June 6, 2017. No changes were
directed then, and I have received no questions, comments or suggestions since then.
Funding: N/A
Recommendation: Conduct second reading of the Revised Ethics Ordinance and adopt.
Background/Analysis:
The current version of the City's ethics ordinance was developed in 2012 in reaction to specific
actions the Council was dealing with at the time. The Council felt, at the time, that it would be
best to adopt their own ordinance that outlines the City's behavioral expectations of elected and
appointed officials. Prior to 2012 the City relied on state statute. The 2012 City Council developed
an ethics ordinance that was more detailed than state law. After adoption of the ordinance, no
complaints were filed under it until the recent complaints precipitated by discussions on fluoride.
After those complaints were processed, the Council held a work session to consider whether the
current ethics ordinance was appropriate or should be changed. After that work session, the
Council received and considered additional thoughts and recommendations from some of the
people who had served as members of the recent ethics boards.
On May 16, 2017 Council again considered the current ethics ordinance. At that meeting the
Council determined that the current ethics ordinance should be revised. The Council decided to
06/20/2017 G - 1
adopt the state's code of Ethics for Municipal Officers, to require that city elected and appointed
officials receive ethics training annually, and to repeal other provisions of the current ordinance.
The attached ordinance was presented for first read on June 6,2017. There were no changes made
to the ordinance at the first reading, and no changes or suggestions have been offered since the
first reading. It is intended to carry out the directions given by Council.
Recommendation: Conduct the second reading of the Revised Ethics Ordinance and adopt.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO
DATE: June 20, 2017
To: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: COREY DELIKAT,PARKS&RECREATION DIRECTOR
CINDY JENSEN,INTERIM FINANCE DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: Park Improvement Fund
Summary: The City wants to change the "Lincoln Park Improvement Fund"to the "Park
Improvement Fund" so an additional fund does not need to be created. Within this fund, monies
dedicated to a particular park, such as Civic Field, would be separately accounted for and held as a
restricted fund for that individual park. Any other donation or monies received and placed in the
account could be applied to any park at the discretion of the Parks & Recreation Director.
Funding: No funding or expenditures are associated with approving the renaming of the Lincoln
Park Improvement Fund.
Recommendation: Conduct second reading and adopt the ordinance amending Chapter 3.15.020 of
the Port Angeles Municipal Code.
Background/Analysis: In 2016, a Facility Use Agreement with MACK Athletics, Inc. was
established to make Civic Field home for the West Coast League Port Angeles Lefties. As part of
the agreement, the team pays fees to use the facility. In order to continue with future facility
improvements, the Parks & Recreation Department wants to establish a maintenance account for
new revenues that are received for the use of Civic Field and use these funds for future capital
projects.
In 1995, the City established a fund called the "Lincoln Park Improvement Fund." This was
established to hold funds that were received from the Port of Port Angeles for the timber that was
removed for clear runway access. To make this fund easier to manage, and not have to create an
additional fund, the City wants to rename the "Lincoln Park Improvement Fund"to "Park
Improvement Fund."Within this fund, monies dedicated to a particular park, such as Civic Field,
would be accounted for in a separate line item and be held as a restricted fund for that individual
park. Any other donation or monies received and placed in the account could be applied to any
park at the discretion of the Parks & Recreation Director.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO
DATE: June 20, 2017
To: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: NATHAN WEST,
DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
SUBJECT: 2017-2018 REDEVELOPMENT AREA-FAC'ADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Summary: In April of 2013 City Council passed an ordinance authorizing the designation of
"redevelopment areas" as part of the City's Facade Improvement Program. Staff is
recommending the designation of the 1st Street from Laurel Street to Race Street for the years
2017 and 2018.
Funding: The facade improvement program is funded by Community Development Block Grant
income. Funds for the program are administered through a dedicated and restricted account in the
general fund. The account is restricted to ensure that funds are spent on eligible CDBG projects.
Unspent funds roll to the following year. Current fund balance is $79,000 with an anticipated
allocation of$120,000 for the year 2018.
Recommendation:Authorize the designation of P Street from Laurel Street to Race Street as
the specified 2017-2018 redevelopment area.
Background/Analysis:
Since 2009, the City has administered a facade improvement program designed to improve the
aesthetic appearance of the public realm and improve citywide property values. The program
was a recommendation of the 2009 American Institute of Architects Sustainable Design
Assessment Team Report. The program provides 50%matching funds for eligible
improvements recognizing that most private sector projects exceed.
In April of 2013 City Council passed an ordinance authorizing the designation of
"redevelopment areas" as part of the City's Facade Improvement Program. Within these Council
06/20/2017 1 - 1
designated areas facade improvements beyond the $10,000 funding are authorized when the
project proponent allows the City to be engaged in the design process. Applications received
will be reviewed by the City Planning Commission who is authorized to award grants with
contracts executed by the City Manager. Grants resulting in funding contributions greater than
$25,000 are presented to City Council for contract approval.
Over the last eight years 56 grant applications have been received. Unspent funds have resulted
in an account balance that exceeds expected expenditures for the next two years. As a result staff
is recommending the designation of a redevelopment area. Previously, Railroad Avenue was
designated as a re-development area and grants were awarded to four separate properties for
improvements. Redevelopment areas are to be designated that correspond to large local public
or private sector investments. Designating the commercial corridor between Laurel Street and
Race Street will correspond to the public investment in the Race Street Corridor and private
investment in the Lincoln Theatre project. Numerous buildings along this corridor are in need of
improvement.
Staff recommends that Council designate 1st Street from Laurel Street to Race Street for the
years 2017 and 2018 as a"redevelopment area" in accordance with ordinance 3476.
Funding Overview:
The facade improvement program is funded by Community Development Block Grant income.
Funds for the program are administered through a dedicated and restricted account in the general
fund. The account is restricted to ensure that funds are spent on eligible CDBG projects. Unspent
funds roll to the following year. Current fund balance is $79,000 with an anticipated allocation of
$120,000 for the year 2018.

To: City Council
FROM: CRAIG FULTON,P.E.,DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS&UTILITIES
SUBJECT: Landfill Post-Closure Professional Services Agreement, PSA-2017-05
Summary: The City manages the Port Angeles Landfill(PALF)under the conditions of the
Municipal Solid Waste Handling Facility Permit SLW08-001, which is issued by Clallam County
Environmental Health. The current permit expires December 31, 2022. Permit conditions include
groundwater monitoring and maintenance of all landfill systems including the cover systems,
landfill gas, leachate, and shoreline features. To comply with the Permit, the City requires
professional services specialized in solid waste engineering. Aspect Consulting has been selected
to continue providing landfill engineering services at PALF through December 31, 2022, until the
expiration of the current permit.
Funding: Funding is available in the approved budget for Solid Waste Utility Landfill Post-
Closure (account 404-7585-537-4150) in an amount not to exceed $115,000 for 2017. Funds will
be budgeted for subsequent years' contract costs in the annual budget process.
The Landfill Post-Closure Fund is set aside specifically to assure financial capacity to manage the
landfill until 2038. The current balance is $5,939,417, of which $2,200,000 was recently received
as a grant from Washington State Department of Ecology.
Recommendation: Forward a favorable recommendation to City Council to authorize the City
Manager to sign the Landfill Post-Closure Consulting Services -Professional Services Agreement
with Aspect Consulting in an amount not to exceed $115,000 in Year 1 and $670,500 over the five
year life of the contract, and to make minor modifications to the agreement as necessary.
Background/Analysis
The post-closure phase of the Port Angeles Landfill(Landfill)began after the closure of the
Landfill in 2008. The Landfill Cell Stabilization Project was necessitated by the 2011 discovery of
garbage exposed at the 304 Landfill east cell by bluff erosion. In order to permit remedial actions
to stabilize the landfill, the Permit was modified to an active status until the project was completed
in 2016. The updated Solid Waste Handling Facility Permit SLW08-001 (Permit)was issued by
06/20/2017 1 - 1
June 20,2017 City Council
Re: Landfill Post-Closure Consulting Services(PSA-2017-05) Page 2
Clallam County Environmental Health Services (CCEHS)working in close cooperation with
Washington State Department of Ecology(DOE) in February 2017 and expires December 31,
2022.
The Permit covers the entire landfill and addresses all of the WAC 173-351 and WAC 173-304
regulations that apply to each landfill area. Required Post-Closure activities include environmental
monitoring, inspection, maintenance, reporting and recordkeeping, technical support, and
emergency reporting for each of the functional systems on the site. The functional systems
addressed in the Permit include 1) groundwater monitoring, 2) landfill gas, 3) leachate, 4) surface
water, 5) seawall and other shoreline features, and 6) the new cover systems installed with the
Landfill Cell Stabilization Project. The scope of the Landfill Engineering Professional Services
Agreement is based on the Permit requirements. Because of this, it is legally permissible to enter
into a multi-year contract that extends for the duration of the Permit.
The City issued a Request for Qualifications for Landfill Post-Closure Engineering Services
Contract, and on April 25, 2017 only one Statement of Qualifications was received, from Aspect
Consulting. A contract price has been negotiated that will provide for the needed services. The
tasks and task budgets are listed in Table 1 below. The task budgets are estimates, and the City will
be invoiced only for work that is actually performed. Since the beginning of the post-closure
period in 2008, the average expenditures for Aspect's Landfill Engineering contract have been
approximately$90,000 per year. The contract budget is structured to be able to accommodate
timely response to operational issues that may arise at the landfill. Table 2 shows estimated
budgets for the subsequent contract years. These are estimated values based on a 5% escalation
factor and additional reports that are periodically required. Contract budgets for Years 2 through 5
will be confirmed each year between the two parties, and submitted for approval by City Council
through the annual City Budget process.

Re: Landfill Post-Closure Consulting Services(PSA-2017-05) Page 3
The City originally entered into an agreement with Aspect Consulting to provide engineering
services in support of the Port Angeles Landfill post-closure Permit in 2008. The contract was
most recently extended in April 2016 in order to ensure continuity through the remaining closeout
activities of the Landfill Cell Stabilization Project and the Permit application submittals. Aspect's
current contract expires June 30, 2017. Over the years, the City has been more than satisfied with
Aspect's performance and with the depth of solid waste engineering and landfill system expertise
that has been provided. Their staff has established relationships with existing City Operations and
Engineering staff. They've consistently assisted the City in submitting permit compliance
deliverables on-time, which have been well received by our regulatory agencies.
Due to the specific experience that Aspect Consulting has with the City's landfill infrastructure
and participation in the Landfill Cell Stabilization Project, they are uniquely qualified to provide
the continuity in service.

At their June 13, 2017 meeting, the Utility Advisory Committee forwarded a favorable
recommendation that City Council authorize the City Manager to sign the Landfill Post-Closure
Professional Services Agreement with Aspect Consulting in an amount not to exceed $670,500,
and to make minor modifications to the agreement, as necessary.

OUR WATER TREATMENT PLANT
The Port Angeles Water Treatment Plant (PAWTP) is one of the
facilities that was designed and constructed by the Federal
Government as part of the Elwha dams removal project. It was
placed into service in early 2010 and has a net-production
capacity of approximately 10.6 MGD. The Plant is comprised of
j ( high-rate clarification using the proprietary ACTIFLO process,
flocculation, dual media filtration, and chlorine disinfection
(sodium hypochlorite). The sodium hypochlorite system feeds
enough chlorine to maintain a chlorine residual of approximate-
ly 0.5 mg/L in the distribution system downstream of the
p graduallysystem,
PAWTP. The chlorine dissi ates raduall in the but is
rz
° rechlorinated at several locations within the system. Waste

Lead in Drinking Water
In Washington State, lead in drinking water comes primarily from materials a
and components used in household plumbing.The more time water has beenua,
sitting in pipes, the more dissolved metals it may contain, such as lead.
Elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems especially in
pregnant women and young children.._ "
To help reduce potential exposure to lead: For any drinking water tap that has not been used for 6 hours or
more, flush water through the tap until the water is noticeably colder before using for drinking or cooking.
You can use the flushed water for watering plants, washing dishes, or general cleaning. Only use water from
the cold tap for drinking, cooking, and especially for making baby formula. Hot water is likely to contain
higher levels of lead. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested.
Information on lead in drinking water is available from EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1.800.426.4791

WATER USE EFFICIENCY
Under the provisions of the Water Use Efficiency Program, we are required to report to you annually by July
1st our progress in reducing water losses, and to share information about our Water Use Efficiency Plan.
LEAKAGE INFORMATION
For the 12-month reporting period from January 2016 thru December 2016
Total Production from the Elwha Source in Million Gallons: 842 MG
Total Authorized Consumption in Million Gallons: 785 MG
Unaccounted for Distribution System Water in Million Gallons: 57 MG
Distribution System Losses as a Percentage: 7%
Summary for 2016
In 2016, we realized a distribution loss of 7%. Our 5-yr. loss average (Jan 2011- Dec 2016) is 12%. We are
replacing the Utility's aging and failing meters with new accurate analog meters thus continuing our efforts
to reduce our water losses due to inaccuracies.
We continued our leak education program at community fairs and in classrooms and offered conservation
devices and rebates to customers through our conservation programs. As of January 4th, 2014, we have
met the EPA requirements of the lead reduction law and are using lead free fittings and fixtures that come
in contact with your drinking water. For any questions regarding our water distribution system, contact Jason
Hart at 360.417.4855 or via e-mail ihart@cityofpa.us.
