PUBLIC HEARINGS SUBSTANTIAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT - SMA 96(06)158 - PORT OF PORT ANGELES. 439 Marine Drive: Request for a permit to fill an existing log pond allowing for dry land storage of raw material and an estuary (Valley Creek) project in the IH, Industrial Heavy zone. Senior Planner Dave Sawyer reviewed the Planning Department's staff report and further identified the area by use of an overhead projector and aerial views of the site and the proposed improvements. Chair King opened the public hearing. Ken Sweeney, Environmental and Planning Manager for the Port of Port Angeles, P.O. Box 1350, Port Angeles, concurred with Planning staff's report. Even though the City's Comprehensive Plan and Shoreline Program have changed since approval of the original permit for this project in 1992, the Port is not surprised at the conditions proposed for approval by staff. The proposed area lies between Valley and Cherry Street on the Port Angeles shoreline waterfront. The purpose for the project is to fill an existing log pond to Planning Commf:ulon Minutes - July 24, 1996 Page 2 . gain additional land storage for the K-Ply mill. The changes in operation will not only increase the mill's capacity for log storage but will promote more efficient log storage procedures at the mill. The accompanying proposed estuary project is at the mouth of Valley Creek and is a mitigation measure to compensate for the loss of the log pond. The proposal has developed into a very popular project as it achieves many objectives set by the City and Port in carrying out future development in the Downtown, creates a natural barrier to the industrial property west of the mill, and may become an extension of the Central Business District in the future. Most of the proposed conditions of approval are acceptable to the Port, but it was requested that consideration be given to removing Condition No. 1 which requires that an archaeologist be on site during excavation activities. A 1923 United States War Department survey indicates that the subject area was under water in 1923, and therefore it is extremely doubtful that Native American artifacts will be found during proposed construction activities. The proposed area is 4.3 acres in size. Project approvals from the Corps of Engineer and the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife remain valid for the project from the earlier approval. The Port was unable to undertake the development prior to this time due to funding constraints. However, Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account (ALEA) monies are available for projects of this type at present. . There being no one else to speak to the issue, Chair King closed the public hearing. Planner Sawyer responded at the direction of the Chair that the City has made a commitment to the Tribes to require wording in shoreline permit approvals to ensure that Tribal interests are brought into the review process. Condition No.1 is worded such that if the Tribes are satisfied that there could be no artifacts in the construction area the condition can be removed. Following brief discussion, Commissioner German moved to approve the shoreline substantial development penn it as proposed with the following conditions, findings and conclusions: Conditions of Approval: 1. If the subject site has not been previously inventoried, evaluated, and reviewed to the satisfaction of the Lower Elwha S'Klallam Tribe, the subject site shall be evaluated by a cultural review team which shall include a professional archaeologist, a representative of the Lower Elwha S 'Kla1lam Tribe, the site owner, and the City Planning Department. This team shan determine the extent of excavation monitoring for the project during the pennit review process. As an alternative, the applicant may volunteer to have an approved archaeologist on site during any excavation in lieu of a review by the aforementioned cultural team. If during an excavation that, by decision of the cultural review team occurs without an approved archaeologist on-site, phenomena of possible archaeological interest are uncovered, the developer shall stop such work and provide for a site inspection and evaluation by a professional . . . . Planning Commission Minutes - July 24. J 996 Page 3 archaeologist to ensure that all possible valuable archaeological data is properly salvaged. 2. The project shall comply with the regulations of the City's Shoreline Master Program specifically those of Chapters 4, 5, and 6. 3. The proposed project shall meet all requirements of the Port Angeles Municipal Code including environmentally sensitive areas, fire, and building code requirements. 4. The Shoreline Master Program Shoreline Environment Designation Map shall be amended to designate the area of the existing log pond as Urban-Harbor and the area of the proposed estuary as Aquatic-Harbor. 5. The project shall be subject to the same conditions of approval as those required of SMA 96-119 which are as follows: A. Comply with the requirements of the Army Corps of Engineers, Departments of Ecology, and any agencies with jurisdiction. B.

The design of the estuary shal] be substantially consistent with the plan approved in the 1993 revision to SMA 91-119 attached to the staff report as part of Attachment A. Findings: Based on the information provided in the staff report (including all of its attachments), comments and information presented during the public hearing, and the Planning Commissionts discussion and deliberation, the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission hereby finds that: 1. In 1977, approval was granted and 30,700 square feet or 14% of the log pond existing at that time was filled. In 1985, a permit to fill one half of the remaining pond was approved but not acted upon. 2. In 1991, SMA 91-119 was approved by the City for the complete filling of the pond subject to the following conditions of approval: A. Comply with the requirements of the Army Corps of Engineers, Departments of Ecology, and any agencies with jurisdiction. B. Submit to the Department of Public Works for review and approval routes for any truck delivery offill material. 3. In 1993, SMA 91-119 was revised to include a required mitigation project known as the Valley Creek Estuary Project. . . . Planning Commission Minules. July 24, 1996 Page 4 4.

MUNICIPAL CODE AMENDM.ENT . MCA 96(08)07 ~ CITY OF PORT ANGELES. City - wide: A proposal to amend Chapter 17 (Zoning) ofthe Port Angeles Municipal Code to clarify the definition of a single-family residence in regard to manufactured homes. MUNICIPAL CODE AMENDMENT - MCA 96(08)08 - CITY OF PORT ANGELES. City - wide: A proposal to amend Chapter 17 (Zoning) ofthe Port Angeles Municipal Code to make residential uses a conditional use in the CO, Commercial zone . Planner Sawyer reviewed the Planning Department's report and explained the present manner in which manufactured homes are permitted in the City. Manufactured homes which meet HUD (Housing and Urban Development) standards have been City wide in residential single family zones since 1985, prior to which manufactured homes were only permitted in Residential Trailer Park (RTP) zones within the City limits. The current amendment proposal is in response to an applicant who is requesting to place a manufactured home in the Residential High Density zone which allows residential uses. To create consistency within the Zoning Code and to update the Code with currently accepted terminology, staffis also suggesting an updated definition of "manufactured home" in the definition section of the Code. Discussion took place regarding the differences between modular and manufactured homes and the specifications for a manufactured home set up in order to ensure that the home is placed such that it blends in with existing structures in a neighborhood. . In regard to the amendment proposal which would require high density residential uses to be by conditional use permit in the Commercial Office (CO) zone, staff noted that this issue was brought about by a recent Comprehensive Plan Amendment change in which the neighborhood did not object to the commercial designation request until it was understood that the zone intended by the applicant, the CO, Commercial Office zone, would also allow for high density residential development as a pennitted use. The proposed amendment would require that neighboring property owners would be notified when a high density residential use is proposed in the CO zone. A public hearing would then be held to ascertain any impacts that could result from the proposed multi family use in a CO zoned neighborhood. Chair King opened the public hearing. Plonning Commission Minutes. July 24. 1996 Page 9 . Richard Moon, 1411 Ninth Street, addressing the first issue, stated that he is the person who wants to put a manufactured home in the Residential High Density zone and asked that the amendment be approved as staff has proposed to enable his mother to reside in the zone in a manufactured home. Jim Reed, 485 Blue Mountain Road, addressing the first issue, asked that the proposed amendment requiring that residential high density uses be permitted in the CO, Commercial Office zone be approved as proposed by staff. He is the applicant referred to earlier who proposed a rezone to CO for property he owns, but because he could not ensure the neighborhood that a future owner would not be able to develop at high density standards, he has not pursued a rezone further. The amendment as proposed would insert a layer of protection for the neighboring property owners who are zoned residential single family in his case as are in most cases of properties that buffer CO zones City wide. There being no further testimony, Chair King closed the public hearing. The Commissioners generally agreed that the proposals make sense and should not affect the manner in which development is occurring City wide. . Commissioner Nutter expressed concern with the second amendment proposal regarding the CO zone change. It is very difficult to successfully designate and retain high density residential zoning areas in the City as although everyone is aware that it is necessary to designate areas where high density uses can locate, no one wants it in their neighborhood. The proposal would further restrict high density residential development by requiring areas where the use is permitted outright at the present time, to be by conditional use permit with the proposed amendment, which again brings in the popularity issue. She favored retaining the outright pennissibility of high density residential opportunities wherever possible to ensure the use is encouraged in appropriate areas. Following further discussion regarding Commissioner Nutter's point, Commissioner German moved to approve the Municipal Code amendments as shown in the attached Exhibit "A", citing the following findings and conclusions: Findings: 1. The Comprehensive Plan has been reviewed with respect to the proposals. The following goals and policies have been identified as being most relevant to the amendments: Land Use Element Goal B, Goal C, Policy C.l, Goal D, Policy D.l, and Policy E.3 and Housing Element Goal A and Policy A.2. 2. The. 1995 Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) for the Comprehensive Plan was adopted for the proposed Zoning Code amendments on July 9, 1996. . 3. The City has received testimony from neighboring and developing property owners that a zoning option limiting commercial and multi-family residential uses is desirable. 4. A detached single family dwelling and a manufactured home each on an individual lot . . . Planning Commission Minutes . July 24, 1996 Pagel 0 are permitted single family residential uses in the RS-7 and RS-9 Zones, while single family residences are pennitted uses in the RMD and RHD Zones. 5. The definition of single family residence specifically states one detached dwelling without reference to detached single family dwelling or manufactured home. Conclusions: A. The Zoning Code Amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies, specifically those found in Finding NO.1. B. The Zoning Code Amendment is consistent with the intent of Chapter 17 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. C. The Zoning Code Amendments are in the public use and interest, since they provide a zoning option limiting commercial and multi-family residential uses consistent with neighboring and developing property owners' testimony and the other eliminates confusion concerning whether manufactured homes on individual lots are considered single family residences. D. Limitation of commercial and medium and high density residential uses will discourage the compromise of zones where transitional uses take place. E. There is no reason to differentiate between detached family dwellings and manufactured homes in the medium and high density residential zones and not in the single family residential zones. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Craver and passed 6 - O. COMMUNICA TIONS FROM THE PUBLIC None STAFF REPORTS None REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS Commissioner Nutter would like the Farmer's Market issue revisited. She asked if the proposal to increase the new library's size at this point poses any problem with the approved conditional use permit and parking variance recently approved for the use. Mr. Sawyer answered that flexibility had been worked into the Planning Commission's approval of the conditional use permit by anticipating that a change may be required. The plans may be increased by up to a fifteen percent margin. The proposed changes are at thirteen percent. . . . Pwnning Commission Minutes. July 24. J 996 Page J J Commissioner German suggested that staff revise the Shoreline Master Program to allow shoreline management pennits to be done administratively since the regulations are such that a project either meets or does not meet the requirements. There doesn't seem to be much need for review by the Planning Commission on the issues and the public is rarely in attendance at meetings. Commissioner Craver agreed. Staff responded that processing time periods would be lengthened if such a change is made because the City's Planning Director also acts as the City's SEPA Responsible Official. If the proposal required a hearing officer decision, the Planning Director could not act on both applications concurrently. Applications could be slowed by up to an additional month. At present, the SEP A procedure is worked into the beginning of the process and runs with other required notification periods for shoreline applications.
