MEMO: November 26, 1968
. TO: Port Angeles Planning Commission .
RE: Meeting scheduled for December 3, 1968
Old Business _
The request of Robert Lyons of 511 East Whidby for a
variance to operate an ambulance service out of the above
address is still pending from the last meeting. Area maps
showing ownership of persons registering protests are being
prepared.
.
New Business: Two variance requests have been received and
property posted for hearing at this time.
The City Council set December 19th, 1968 as the hearing
date for Mr. Floyd McRevey's request for rezoning the north 100
f~et of Loti20, Block 32 Townsite from RMF to CBD, and referred
the request to the Planning Commission for a recommendation. An
area map showing ownership of persons expressing approval or
disapproval with the request is being prepared.
Mr. Gary Tuttle of Rt. 3 Box 678 Port Angeles has
requested a variance for property he owns at 602 W. 14th St.
Mr. Tuttle owns two full lots with a single family residence
and garage situated on the north 70 feet. He has a buyer for ~
the north 70' x 100' and wishes to retain the south 70' x 100' '~
for his own use. Splitting the property in this manner will
locate the property line closer to the garage than the required
7 foot sideyard.
Mr. Morris Rice of 519 South Oak Street has reque&ted a
variance for property he owns on the southeast corner of 6th and
Oak Streets. The lot is 50' x 140' and Mr. Rice desires to
construct a four-unit apartment on it. The area is properly
zoned, but the lot is too small for a building of this many
units. Further, Mr. Rice has requested a seven foot setback
from the Oak Street right-of-way instead of the 25' required.
Off-street parking provisions appear to be adequate.
~
Other Business
City Council will be ioining with the Planning Commission
again, following this meeting, for another study session on the
Zoning Ordinance. Copies of items for discussion are included
with this memo.
Council Action
At its last regular meeting on November 21. 1968 the City
Council acknowledged the minutes of the Planning Commission
meeting of November 19, 1968 and filed them since none of
the items required an individual action.
. As of this date I have nothing further to be considered ~
_ at this meeting. (Items are already coming in for the 12/17/68 -
meeting however.)

Minutes of Port Angeles Planning Commission meeting of Dec. 3, 1968.
Present: Hunt, McHone, Anderson, Treat and Building Insp. Willson.
Absent: Dilling, Driscoll, Hankins.
Minutes of previous meeting were approved as received.
Old Business: The request of Robert Lyons,511 East Whidby St., for
a variance to operate an ambulance service out of his home in an
RS-7 zone was the first item on the agenda. The Planning Commission
members were advised that the area map, requested at the last meeting,
had not been completed because of the current strike by the city
employees. The members voted to table this item until the next meet-
ing, in anticipation the map could be prepared by then.
New Business: Two variance requests had been received and properly
posted for hearing at this time.
The first item of business was a request by Mr. Floyd McRever
for a rezoning of the north 100f of Lot 20 Block 32 Townsite. ThlS
item had been referred to the Planning Commission, from the City
Council, for recommendation. The members were advised that sufficient
information had not been compiled to present them at this time, also
due to the city employees strike. The members voted to table this
item until the Dec. 17, 1968 meeting.
Mr. Gary Tuttle had requested a variance for Lots 1 and 2 Block
417 Townsite. The buildings located on this property are situated
in such a manner that if Mr. Tuttle sells off the north 70', as he
proposes,the new property line will not be the required 7' from the
side of the garage. Mr. Tuttle had requested a variance to permit
him to make this property split. Following a brief discussiont it
was voted to recommend approval of the request.
Mr. Morris Rice - 519 South Oak St., had requested a variance
which would permit him to construct a four-unit apartment on a
7000 square foot lot with a side yard setback from Oak Street of
seven feet instead of the required 25 feet. The property involved
is lot 10 Block 165 Townsite located on the southeast corner of
6th and Oak Streets. After considerable discussion it was voted
to recommend approval of the request for a waiver of the ratio of
lot area to number of units, but the side yard on Oak Street will
have to be as large as possible, and not less than eight feet in
any case.
No further business was presented and the meeting adiourned at 8:30
P.M. This was followed by a joint study session by the Planning
Commission and City Council relative to the zoning and related
ordinances.
