A photometric lighting plan may be required if the parking lot is located adjacent to or abutting residential properties. (3) Water/Irrigation. As part of renovation, a complete plumbing fixture count will be required to determine adequate size of water service and meter required to serve the site. Installation Charge, Domestic Charge and Distribution Connection Charge fees are dependent on the size of the water service/meter required to serve the site/buildings. VIII. Rezone Review Criteria. The Hearing Examiner's recommendations regarding rezone applications within the Yakima Urban Area must be based upon the following criteria specified in Subsection 15.23.030(D) of the Yakima Municipal Code (YMC): (1) The testimony at the public hearing. Associate Planner Trevor Martin and the applicant's representative Thomas Durant were the only persons who testified at the hearing. They both testified in favor of the requested project rezone and the Class (3) medical clinic use. Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. 004-17; CL3#010-17 . . 5 RECEiVED JAN 2 5 2018 CITY OF YAKIMA CIV - 13 (2) The suitability of the property in question for uses permitted under the proposed zoning. The property will be well suited for the proposed medical clinic use within two existing buildings on the lot that would be allowed if the lot is rezoned to the Multifamily Residential (R-3) zoning district. Many of the land uses that are allowed in the R-3 zone are also permitted in the R-2 zone, except with a lower level of required review in some cases. The site is no less suitable for R-3 zoning than it is for R-2 zoning. The full range of urban services that is specifically required for R-3 zones is available. The existing buildings are to be converted to the proposed new use with no changes other than internal remodeling and site improvements, mainly parking, that will be necessary to maintain compliance with City requirements. The site is large enough to accommodate these additional improvements while maintaining required standards including landscaping, sitescreening and lot coverage. Since this is a project rezone for the specific medical clinic use in two existing buildings as described in the Class (3) use application, there is no need to consider the suitability of the property for other uses that could be allowed in the R-3 zoning district. (3) The recommendation from interested agencies and departments. The Planning Division recommends approval of the proposed project rezone. No agencies or departments opposed this rezone request. (4) The extent to which the requested zoning amendment is in compliance with and/or deviates from the goals and policies as adopted in the Yakima urban area comprehensive plan and the intent of the zoning ordinance. The requested rezone from the R-2 to the R-3 zoning district is in compliance with the goals and policies of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and the intent of the zoning ordinance for the following reasons: (a) The requested project rezone that would allow for possible approval of a Class (3) medical clinic use would comply with the goals and policies of the City's 2040 Comprehensive Plan for several reasons. The Future Land Use Map 111-3 and Table III -1 1 provide that both the R-2 and R-3 zoning districts are compatible and consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan's Mixed Residential designation of the lot. A Comprehensive Plan amendment is not required to make the requested R-3 zoning district consistent with the Comprehensive Plan designation.

INDEX proposed zone change to the R-3 zoning district would not be illegal spot zoning because it would not be totally different from, and inconsistent with, the classification of the surrounding land and it would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Mixed Residential designation. There are no known Comprehensive Plan Goals or Policies which discourage the requested R-3 zoning or Class (3) medical clinic use in the Mixed Residential designation. To the contrary, the following Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies support the approval of a rezone to the R-3 zoning district in order to allow the proposed Class (3) medical clinic use to be established on the subject property: (i) Goal 2.1: Establish a development pattern consistent with the community's vision. (ii) Policy 2.1.7: Allow new development only where adequate public services can be provided. (iii) Policy 2.1.10: Require properties to assume zoning consistent with the City's Future Land Use Plan, as adopted or as amended where appropriate. (iv) Goal 2.3: Residential Uses. Preserve and enhance the quality, character and function of Yakima's residential neighborhoods. (v) Policy 2.3.1: Provide for a wide variety of housing types within the City to meet the full range of housing needs for Yakima's evolving population. (vi) Policy 2.3.1(G): Senior and assisted housing. Encourage these housing types in the R-2 and R-3 zones and commercial/mixed-use zones. Design standards should emphasize pedestrian -oriented design, facade articulation, and usable open space. (vii) Policy 2.3.2: Preserve and enhance established residen- tial neighborhoods. Specifically: Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RZ#004-17; CL3#010-17 7 RECEIVED JAN! 2 5 2Di8 CITY OF YAKIMA Jt&CIV 14 15 (A) Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood. (B) Protect the character of single-family neighborhoods by focusing higher intensity land uses close to commercial and community services and transit. **. (E) Carefully review proposed land use designation changes to more intensive residential designations, mixed use or industrial. Specifically: (I) Proposals should conform to locational criteria set forth for the desired designation in the applicable policies under Goal 2.2. (II) Is the site physically suited for the proposed designation? (III) Is the desired zone one of the imple- menting zones of the land use designation (per applicable policies under Goal 2.2)? (IV) Avoid spot zones or similar changes that may create instability with the surrounding neigh- borhood. (viii) Goal 2.5: Arterial corridors and other mixed-use centers. Enhance the character, function and economic vitality of Yakima's arterial corridors and mixed-use centers. (ix) Policy 2.5.1: Allow for a mixture of compatible land uses along corridors and within mixed-use designated areas. This includes the integration of multi -family residential and office uses with retail and service commercial zones. Provide zoning and design standards to maintain compatibility between different uses and zones. • • • Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RZ#004-17; CL3#010-17 8 RECEIVED JAN 2 5 '20i8 CITY OF YAKIMA (C) Update zoning and design provisions to promote compatibility between different uses and zones. Examples include building setbacks, building massing, landscaping buffers, fencing, service element location and design provisions, and vehicular parking and access provisions. Landscape buffers are particularly important elements that can effectively mitigate impacts of commercial uses on adjacent residential uses. Commercial development adjacent to Low Density Residential designated areas warrant the greatest compatibility design protections. (b) The proposed rezone from the R-2 to the R-3 zoning district would be in compliance with the intent of the zoning ordinance because YMC §15.03.020(D) provides in part that the intent of the R-3 zoning district is to exclude activities which are not compatible with residential uses. As is discussed below relative to the sixth rezone criterion, the medical clinics will be compatible with all surrounding uses, including the single-family residence that is located east of the subject lot. (5) The adequacy of public facilities, such as roads, sewer, water and other required public services. The subject lot is currently accessed by West Washington Avenue which is a four -lane street with sufficient traffic capacity for the proposed use and which requires 60 to 80 feet of right-of-way with curb, gutter and sidewalk in accordance with YMC Title 12. Curb, gutter and sidewalk, as well as 60 feet of right-of-way, are currently in place. City of Yakima water, sewer, garbage, police and fire services are available to serve the lot. Cascade Natural Gas service, Pacific Power electrical service, Centurylink telephone service and Charter cable TV service are also available to serve the subject lot. Stormwater drainage is being provided on the site utilizing an existing system of catch basins and drainage trenches. The medical clinics should not increase the demand for public services beyond the current demand for public services. (6) The compatibility of proposed zone change and associated uses with neighboring land uses. As conditioned, the proposed R-3 zoning district with its associated medical clinic use that would be allowed by the requested rezone would be compatible with neighboring land uses for the following reasons: Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RZ#004-17; CL3#010-17 9 RECEIVED JAN 2 5 2018 CITY OF YAKIMA 16 DOC. INDEX (a) YMC §15.02.020 defines "compatibility" as "the characteristics of different uses or developments that permit them to be located near each other in harmony, with or without special mitigation measures." Here the surrounding land uses consist of Ridgeview Elementary School, vacant land across Washington Avenue to the south, and one single-family residence to the east. (b) The proposed medical clinics are similar in character in many ways to the existing use of the site, in part because they will occupy the same buildings. They are compatible in scale and type with the school which is also a non-residential land use. The lot's frontage on Washington Avenue, a four lane street, is better suited for non-residential uses that generate more traffic to and from the uses than are generated by residential uses. (c) Sitescreening and landscaping will meet or exceed City develop- ment code standards that include the following: (A) A minimum of Sitescreening Standard A (10 -foot -wide landscaped strip) along the east property line contiguous to the single-family residential property to the east. A continuous screen of full-grown arborvitae (Standard B) and a view obscuring fence (Standard C) are also on this property line. (B) An evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full-grown arborvitae in most locations) along the parking areas where they are contiguous to adjacent property in a residential zone (on parts of the north, west and east property lines). (C) An existing two -foot -high wall in the required front yard (20 feet from the right-of-way) along Washington Avenue required by YMC §15.06.030(D). New parking spaces on the west end of the site are set back 20 feet from the street and would not be subject to this requirement. This area will remain in lawn or landscaping. (D) A 6 -foot -high view -obscuring fence in combination with an evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full-grown arborvitae) Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RZ#004-17; CL3#010-17 10 R EC EiVE D JAN 2 5 2018 CITY OF YAKIMA DIV 17 18 along the property line where it is contiguous to the industrial use to the east. (d) The proposed use represents little change to what currently exists on the ‘property. The primary difference will be the additional parking required for medical clinic uses. (e) As noted, the site is surrounded on two sides by a school which has not presented any known compatibility concerns with the existing uses on the lot. The lot which fronts on a 4 -lane street is better suited from a compatibility standpoint for a medical clinic use than for a residential use. Across Washington Avenue is vacant property, enclosed by a solid fence at least 6 feet high, which appears to be intended for future expansion of a residential condominium complex located further to the west. Orientation and layout of the buildings and private drives within that development, along with the fence, suggest that the development is to be oriented away from the street. Development of that property should therefore not result in any compatibility issues. (f) Required sitescreening, including a minimum of Sitescreening Standard C along the east, west and north property lines as recommended by the Planning Division and as is required by this Decision would resolve any potential compatibility issues. In addition, the needed expansion of the parking lot will occur on the west side of the lot, opposite from the neighboring residence, and will be outside of the required front yard setback. Sitescreening in the form of an arborvitae screen exists along most of the property line common with the school, although it is not currently required by the zoning ordinance. (7) The public need for the proposed change. The rezone which would allow for two medical clinics to be approved for the lot would result in the establishment of medical facilities which would provide needed medical services for many people and which would be especially convenient for those who live in that area of the City.

Class (3) Review Criteria that is Applicable to a Medical Clinic Use. The Hearing Examiner's findings and conclusions are required to set forth specific reasons and ordinance provisions demonstrating that the decision satisfies the following requirements set forth in YMC §15.04.020(C) and §15.15.040(E): (1) Compliance and Compatibility with the Objectives and Develop- ment Standards of the Comprehensive Plan. As previously noted relative to the rezone criteria in this regard, this proposed project rezone and Class (3) medical clinic use are fully supported by the City's 2040 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map 111-3 due to the subject lot's Mixed Residential designation. As previously noted, YMC Table III -11 entitled Future Land Use and Current Zoning Comparison supports the proposed project rezone from the R-2 to the R-3 zoning district. The proposed Class (3) medical clinic use that is listed as a Class (3) use in the R-3 zoning district would likewise be compliant and compatible with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Goals 2.3 and 2.5, and also with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Policies 2.3.2, 2.3.2.A, 2.3.2.B, 2.3.2.E, and 2.5.1 previously detailed relative to the rezone criteria in this regard. (2) Compliance and Compatibility with the Intent and Character of the Multifamily Residential (R-3) Zoning District. The proposed Class (3) medical clinic use would be compliant and compatible with the intent and character of the R-3 zoning district, if the requested rezone is approved, for the following reasons: (a) As previously noted relative to the rezone criteria in Subsection VIII(4)(b) of this Decision, the proposed Class (3) medical clinics will be compliant and compatible with the intent of the R-3 zoning district set forth in YMC §15.03.020(D) which is in part to exclude activities which are not compatible with residential uses. (b) Also as previously noted relative to the rezone criteria in Sub- section VIII(6) of this Decision, the proposed Class (3) medical clinics will be compliant and compatible with the character of the lot where they will be located and with the character of the districts that surround it. (3) Compliance with the Provisions and Standards Established in the Zoning Ordinance. The applicable provisions and standards in the zoning Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RV/004-17; CL3#010-17 12 1ECEIVED JAN 2 5 206 MTV OF YAKIMA CLANIOI2 iv 19 DOC. INDEX AIA -1 20 ordinance include the requirements detailed above in the comments of the City's Development Services Team and include the following development standards which apply within the R-3 zoning district: (a) Parking: YMC Table 6-1 in YMC §15.06.040 requires medical clinics to have one parking space for every 200 square feet of gross floor area. The applicant is proposing to provide 33 parking spaces for the uses on the lot. (b) Landscaping: 10% of the parking area must be landscaped and at least two trees are required as part of that landscaping. (c) Sightscreening: Based upon existing land uses and an appli- cation of the sitescreening standards of Chapter 15.07 set forth in YMC §15.07.040, Sitescreening Standard C is required along the west, north and east property lines of the subject lot. That standard requires a 6 -foot -high view -obscuring fence made of wood, masonry block, concrete or slatted chain link material. (d) Structure Setbacks: YMC Table 5-1 of YMC Chapter 15.05 requires a front building setback of 50 feet from the centerline of a right-of- way and a minimum of 20 feet from the front property line; a side building setback of 10 feet or one half the building height from the property line; and a rear building setback of 15 feet or one half the building height from the rear property line. The applicant's site plan meets or exceeds all required structure setbacks from property lines, rights-of-way and residential districts. (e) Lot coverage: The maximum permitted lot coverage in the R-3 zoning district is 80%. The applicant proposes lot coverage of 77%. X. Consistency of the Proposed Rezone and Class 13) Medical Clinic Use with Development Regulations and the Comprehensive Plan under the Criteria Required by YMC 416.06.02013 is determined by consideration of the following factors: Diep Miller Rezone from R-2 to R-3 Two Medical Clinics 513 W. Washington Ave. RZ#004-17; CL3#010-17 13 RECEIVED JAN 2 5 2018 CITY OF YAKIM 21 (1) The types of land uses permitted at the site would include the proposed medical clinic use which is allowed as a Class (3) use in the R-3 zoning district if, as here, it satisfies the criteria for approval of a rezone from the R-2 zoning district to the R-3 zoning district and also the criteria for approval of a Class (3) use. (2) The density of residential development and the level of development such as units per acre would allow for approval of the requested rezone and Class (3) use. The proposed use of the property would be slightly less dense than the maximum density allowed in the R-3 zoning district since the lot coverage would be 77% in a zoning district that allows 80% lot coverage. (3) The availability and adequacy of infrastructure and public facilities is not an issue here since there are adequate public utility services available for the proposed medical clinic use and there is adequate access to the subject lot by way of West Washington Avenue. (4) The characteristics of the development are consistent with the development regulations and with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan considerations which were discussed in detail above.

The subject property is approximately 1.15 acres in size and is zoned Two -Family Residential (R-2). The property is currently vacant. 2. Adjacent Properties and Land use Characteristics Direction Zoning Land Use North R-2 School East M -1/R-2 Storage/Single family home South R-2 Washington Ave./Union Gap West R-2 88th Ave / Single Family Home 3. Other Characteristics 1. Critical Areas: i. There are no known critical areas located on any of the subject parcels. 2. Existing Infrastructure: i. Streets: The property is currently accessed by W. Washington Ave., classified as a Minor Collector which requires a 60-80 feet of Right -of -Way with curb, gutter, and sidewalk development in accordance with YMC Title 12. Curb, gutter, and sidewalk as well as 60 feet of Right -of -Way are currently in place. ii. Water: The site is served by City of Yakima Water. iii. Sewer: Sewer is located in W Washington Ave. C. Statement of Cause - Rezone: Pursuant to YMC Ch. 15.23, the applicant provided the following paraphrased statements explaining their reasons for the proposed Rezone: Narrative: This is an application to change the zoning of a 1.15 acre parcel at 513 W. Washington Avenue from Two -Family Residential (R-2) to Multiple Family Residential (R-3). The purpose of the rezone is to allow two of three buildings that are now part of a group home to be converted to medical clinics. A Type 3 application is also included 2 27 for that proposed use. The third building is to remain in its existing use as a group home but will be increased from 11 to 12 beds. Other site improvements are proposed to accommodate the proposed new use and comply with City development codes. 1. How is the subject property suitable for uses permitted under the proposed zoning? Most of the land uses that are allowed in the R-3 zone, particularly residential uses, are also permitted in the R-2 zone, except with a lower level of required review in some cases. The site is no less suitable for R-3 zoning than it is for R-2 zoning. The full range of urban services that is specifically required for R-3 zones is available. The existing buildings are to be converted to the proposed new use with no changes other than internal remodeling and site improvements, mainly parking, that will be necessary to maintain compliance with City requirements. The site is large enough to accommodate these additional improvements while maintaining required standards including landscaping, sitescreening and lot coverage. What is the status of the existing land use? The site is currently developed for a 23 -bed group home utilizing all three of the existing buildings. In order to avoid displacement impacts, the number of residents has been allowed to decrease through attrition to 12 currently living in the facility. All are in the two buildings proposed for conversion to medical clinics. When the rezone and land use application are approved, the residents will be relocated to the third building at the north end of the site which will continue to be operated as a group home, but with the number of beds increased by one from 11 currently to 12. 2. How is the rezone request in compliance with and/or how does the request deviate from the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan? Both R-2 and R-3 zoning is allowed in areas designated Mixed Residential by the plan, and land uses allowed in the R-3 zone are similar and generally compatible with those allowed in the R-2 zone. Therefore, a plan amendment is not required. The following goals and policies support the proposed zoning. No goals or policies were identified from which the proposed zoning and land use would deviate. Goal 2.1 Establish a development pattern consistent with the community's vision. • Policy 2.1.7. Allow new development only where adequate public services can be provided. • Policy 2.1.10 Require properties to assume zoning consistent with the City's Future Land Use Plan, as adopted or as amended where appropriate. Goal 2.3 Residential Uses. Preserve and enhance the quality, character and function of Yakima's residential neighborhoods. • Policy 2.3.1. Provide for a wide variety of housing types within the City to meet the full range of housing needs for Yakima's evolving population. • Policy 2.3.1(G). Senior and assisted housing. Encourage these housing types in the R-2 and R-3 zones and commercial/mixed-use zones. Design standards should emphasize pedestrian -oriented design, fagade articulation, and usable open space. DOC. INDEX # A-- 3 28 • Policy 2.3.2. Preserve and enhance established residential neighborhoods. Specifically: • (A) Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood. • (B) Protect the character of single family neighborhoods by focusing higher intensity land uses close to commercial and community services and transit. (E) Carefully review proposed land use designation changes to more intensive residential designations, mixed use or industrial. Specifically: o Proposals should conform to locational criteria set forth for the desired designation in the applicable policies under Goal 2.2. o Is the site physically suited for the proposed designation? o Is the desired zone one of the implementing zones of the land use designation (per applicable policies under Goal 2.2)? o Avoid spot zones or similar changes that may create instability with the surrounding neighborhood. • Policy 2.3.6. Allow some compatible nonresidential uses in residential zones, such as appropriately scaled schools, churches, parks and other public / community facilities, home occupations, day care centers, and other uses that provide places for people to gather. Maintain standards in the zoning code for locating and designing these uses in a manner that respects the character and scale of the neighborhood. Goal 2.5. Arterial corridors and other mixed-use centers. Enhance the character, function and economic vitality of Yakima's arterial corridors and mixed-use centers. • Policy 2.5.1. Allow for a mixture of compatible land uses along corridors and within mixed-use designated areas. This includes the integration of multi -family residential and office uses with retail and service commercial zones. Provide zoning and design standards to maintain compatibility between different uses and zones. • (C) Update zoning and design provisions to promote compatibility between different uses and zones. Examples include building setbacks, building massing, landscaping buffers, fencing, service element location and design provisions, and vehicular parking and access provisions. Landscape buffers are particularly important elements that can effectively mitigate impacts of commercial uses on adjacent residential uses. Commercial development adjacent to Low Density Residential designated areas warrant the greatest compatibility design protections. The proposed zone change would not be illegal spot zoning as specified in Policy 2.3.2.E because it is not totally different and inconsistent with the classification of the surrounding land and it is in accordance with the comprehensive plan. 3. Are there adequate public facilities, such as traffic capacity, sewer services, potable water, stormwater drainage, schools, fire and police services, and other public services and infrastructure existing on the and around the subject property? 4 29 The site is accessed from W. Washington Avenue, a four -lane minor arterial street with sufficient traffic capacity according to the comprehensive plan. Sewer and water service is already being provided to the buildings and with the reduction in full time residents, there should not be a significant increase in demand. Stormwater drainage is being provided on the site using an existing system of catch basins and drainage trenches. The proposed use does not increase the demand for schools. Police and emergency service need should be no greater than it is for the existing use. Are the existing public facilities capable of supporting the most intensive use of the new (requested) zone? If not, what mitigating measures are going to be implemented to address any short falls in public services that may exist? The most intensive allowable land use in the R-3 zone that would be possible on this small of a site would probably be multiple family residential. The same use could also be permitted under existing R-2 zoning through Type 2 review. In either zone, density and the overall size of such development would be limited by the area of the site, building height, lot coverage, parking requirements and area needed for required sitescreening. Because of the size of the site, these limitations should keep such a development, if it were to be proposed, small in scale and likely within existing public facility capacities of this site. The requirement for traffic concurrency would also limit it to that which would be within existing traffic capacity. The applicant does not plan to develop multiple family residential at this site. 4. How is the proposed zone change compatible with the existing neighboring uses? Surrounding land uses consist of Ridgeview Elementary School, vacant land across Washington Avenue to the south, and one single family residence to the east. The proposed clinics are similar in character in many ways to the existing group home on the site, in part because they will occupy the same buildings. They are compatible in scale and type with the school, a non-residential land use. Frontage on Washington Avenue, a four lane street, is better suited for non- residential or higher -density residential development. Potential conflicts would be the additional parking being provided with the single-family residence to the east and potential land use conflicts with industrial use of property to the east. What mitigating measures are planned to address incompatibility, such as sitescreening, buffering building design, open space, traffic flow alteration, etc.? Sitescreening and landscaping meeting and/or exceeding City development code standards that include the following: a. Minimum of sitescreening Standard A (10' wide landscape strip) on the east property line contiguous to the single family residential property to the east. A continuous screen of full grown arborvitae (Standard B) and a view obscuring fence (Standard C) are also on this property line. 5 30 b. Evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full grown arborvitae in most locations) along parking areas where contiguous to adjacent property in a residential zone (on parts of the north, west and east property lines). c. Existing two foot high wall in the required front yard (20 feet from the right-of- way) along Washington Avenue (YMC 15.06.030(D)). New parking spaces on the west end of the site are set back 20 feet from the street and would not be subject to this requirement. This area will remain in lawn or landscaping. d. Six foot high view obscuring fence in combination with evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full grown arborvitae) along the property line where it is contiguous to the industrial use to the east. 5. What is the public need for the proposed change? The proposed zoning change is not a substantial change from existing zoning because most of the permitted land uses are the same. As such, it continues to provide for the public need of the existing zoning. The proposed R-3 zoning implements the Mixed Residential future land use designation of the comprehensive plan. That designation was established with the adoption of the current comprehensive plan in 2017 and should be considered a change of circumstances from when the R-2 zoning was first established in this location. While R-3 zoning was considered to implement the previous plan designation of Medium Density Residential, it was not fully consistent with it because the prescribed densities were less. That is not the case of the new Mixed Residential designation. D. Statement of Cause — Type 3 Review: Pursuant to YMC Ch. 15.215, the applicant provided the following paraphrased statements explaining their reasons for the proposed Type 3 Review: 1. Fully describe the proposed development, including number of dwelling units and parking spaces. If the proposal is for a business, describe hours of operation, days per week and all other relevant information related the business. Convert two of the three existing buildings being used as a group home to two separate medical clinics. The third building will continue to be used as a 12 -bed group home. The two buildings total 5,400 square feet requiring, along with the 12 - bed group home, a total of 33 parking spaces. Additional parking is to be provided to meet this standard. Expected hours of operation of the medical clinics is to be normal daytime business hours, five days a week. The group home, of course, will continue to operate on a 24 hour, seven day per week basis. 2. How is the proposal compatible to neighboring properties? The proposed use represents little change to what is currently existing on the property. The primary difference being the additional parking that is being required. The site is surrounded on two sides by a school, with which the proposed and existing use are substantially compatible. The site fronts on Washington Avenue, a 4 -lane arterial and is better suited from a compatibility standpoint to that location 6 31 than residential use. Across Washington Avenue, is vacant property enclosed by a six or more foot high solid fence that appears to be intended for future expansion of a residential condominium complex located further to the west. Orientation and layout of the buildings and private drives within that development, along with the fence, suggest that the development is to be oriented away from the arterial street. For these reasons, along with the arterial that separates them, there should be no compatibility issues from the proposed development on that property. The primary compatibility concerns would be with the single-family residence and industrial building and storage yard to the east. 3. What mitigation measures are proposed to promote compatibility? Existing sitescreening, including sitescreening standard A and higher on the east property line next to the single-family residence and industrial property and parking lot sitescreening as required in R-3 zoning. New parking lot expansion is taking place on the west side of the site, opposite from the neighboring residence and will be outside of the required front yard setback. Sitescreening, in the form of an arborvitae screen is existing along most of the property line common with the school, although it is not currently required by code. 4. How is your proposal consistent with current zoning of your property? The purpose of the R-3 zoning district is to establish and preserve high-density residential neighborhoods by excluding activities not compatible with residential uses; locate high-density residential development in areas receiving the full range of urban services and near neighboring shopping facilities; and locate high-density residential development so that traffic it generates does not pass through lower - density residential areas. The district contains a variety of attached or clustered multiple -family dwellings (YMC 15.03.020(D)). Although the intent statement does not specifically reference the proposed medical clinics, they are permitted uses under YMC 15.04 subject to Type 3 Review. They are compatible with surrounding residential uses with the measures being described and given the type and character of this site and surrounding land uses. The site is receiving a full range of urban services. There is shopping nearby and traffic generated by the proposed use will exit directly on to an arterial street without passing through lower -density residential areas. 5. How is your proposal consistent with uses and zoning of neighboring properties? It is consistent with surrounding land use that consists primarily of a school, which is a non-residential use with no compatibility issues. Sitescreening being provided next to the one single-family dwelling and industrial development to the east. 6. How is your proposal in the best interest of the community? Existing, proposed and potential uses of the site: group home, medical clinics and other residential land uses permitted in the R-3 zone are community services that benefit the community, are in demand and needed. 7 32 E. Yakima Area Comprehensive Plan: The 2040 Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map designates this area as Mixed Residential. The purpose for Mixed Residential is designated to provide for areas with a mixture of housing types and densities. A mixture of single-family, duplex, and multifamily dwelling units. The permitted maximum density is up to or above 13 net dwelling units per acre, depending on the underlying zoning district and neighborhood context. For developments electing to conform to site and building design standards promoting pedestrian -oriented development, density is primarily limited by allowable building height, integration of required parking, market conditions, and conformance with applicable site and building design provisions. Specifying the maximum number of dwelling units in one building may be appropriate in some areas to ensure compatibility and to limit building massing and density. F. Applicable Law. Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance: 1. Rezone Defined: Pursuant to YMC § 15.23.010, "From time to time, a change in circumstance or condition may warrant a change in the zoning text or map create by this title. The purpose of this chapter is to establish the procedures to amend the zoning text and/or map when the proposed change would be consistent with the goals, policies, and intent of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan." 2. Class (3) Land Use Defined: Pursuant to YMC § 15.02.020, "Class (3) uses are those uses set forth and defined in the text and tables of YMC Chapter 15.04, and are generally incompatible with adjacent and abutting property because of their size, emissions, traffic generation, neighborhood character or for other reasons. However, they may be compatible with other uses in the district if they are properly sited and designed. Class (3) uses may be permitted by the Hearing Examiner when he determines, after holding a public hearing that the use complies with provisions and standards; and that difficulties related to the compatibility, the provisions of public services, and the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Pian policies have been adequately resolved." 3. Type (3) Review: Pursuant to YMC § 15.04.020(C), "Class (3) uses are generally not permitted but may be allowed by the Hearing Examiner after Type (3) Review and public hearing. The Hearing Examiner may approve, deny, or impose conditions on the proposed land use and site improvements to promote compatibility with the intent and character of the district and the policies and development criteria of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The procedures in YMC Ch. 15.15 shall be used to review and evaluate Class (3) uses or Class (2) uses that have been forwarded to the Hearing Examiner for review." 4. R-2 Zoning District Defined: Per YMC § 15.03.020(C) the R-2 zoning district is intended to: 1. Establish and preserve residential neighborhoods for detached single-family dwellings, duplexes and other uses compatible with the intent of this district; and DCC. INDEX 8 33 2. Locate residential development with densities up to twelve dwelling units per net residential acre in areas receiving a full range of public services including public water and sewer service, and police and fire protection. The district is characterized by up to sixty percent lot coverage, access via local access streets and collectors, one and two story buildings, some clustering of units, and required front, rear and side yard setbacks. Typical uses in this district are single-family dwellings and duplexes. The density in this district generally ranges from seven to twelve dwelling units per net residential acre. However, development up to eighteen dwelling units per net residential acre may be allowed in accordance with YMC Chapter 15.04, Table 4-1. 3. R-3 Zoning District Defined. Per YMC § 15.03.020(D) the R-3 zoning district is intended to: 1. Establish and preserve high-density residential districts by excluding activities not compatible with residential uses; 2. Locate high-density residential development more than twelve dwelling units per net residential acre in areas receiving the full range of urban services; 3. Locate high-density residential development near neighborhood shopping facilities; and 4. Locate high-density residential development so that traffic generated by the development does not pass through lower -density residential areas. The district contains a variety of attached or clustered multifamily dwellings. 4. Compatibility Oefined: Pursuant to YMC § 15.02.020, "Compatibility means the characteristics of different uses or developments that permit them to be located near each other in harmony, with or without special mitigation measures." 5 Sitescreeninq Defined Pursuant to YMC § 15.07.010, "The purpose of this chapter is to establish sitescreening standards to provide a visual buffer between uses of different intensity, streets and structures; reduce erosion and stormwater runoff, protect property values; and eliminate potential land use conflicts by mitigating adverse impacts from dust, odor, litter, noise, glare, lights, signs, water runoff, buildings or parking areas." The proposed use of medical clinics requires Sitescreening Standard C on the West Property line, which includes "a six-foot high, view obscuring fence, made of wood, masonry block, concrete, or slatted chain link material." 6. Parking: Pursuant to YMC § 15.06.040, Table 6-1, Medical and dental laboratories, offices, and clinics require 1 parking space per 200 square -feet gross floor area. 33 parking spaces have been proposed. 7. Lot Coverage: Pursuant to YMC Ch. 15.05, Table 5-1, the maximum lot coverage in the R-3 zoning district is 80% 8. Structure Setbacks: Pursuant to YMC Ch. 15.05, Table 5-1, the required structure setbacks include: a. Front — 50 -feet from centerline of right-of-way (Or a minimum of 20 feet from the front property line.) 9 OCC. INDEX 34 b. Rear — 15 -feet from property line / or 1/2 building height c. Side — 10 -feet from property line / or %/2 building height G. Development Services Team (DST) Review: The DST meeting for this proposal was held on November 11, 2017. Comments were received from the following city divisions: 1 Code Administration. 1. If the land use application for this project is reviewed/approved, application must be made for a City of Yakima General Business License for the proposed medical offices, YMC 5.52. Prior to the issuance of the Business License, a fire inspection must be performed by a Code Inspector (if applicable). The building to the east, will use the address of 513 W Washington Ave. The building to the west, will use the address of 517 W Washington Ave. The ability to obtain the City of Yakima license may be contingent on other land use requirements outlined in the Decision. 2. Planning. Lighting shall be provided to illuminate any off-street parking or loading space used at night. When provided, lighting shall be directed to reflect away from adjacent and abutting properties. Parking lots adjacent to residential districts or uses shall be designed with down -shielding and luminaries creating no lighting pollution upon those properties. A photometric lighting plan may be required if the parking lot is located adjacent to or abutting residential properties. 3. Water/Irrigation: As part of renovation, a complete plumbing fixture count will be required to determine adequate size of water service and meter required to serve the site. Installation Charge, Domestic Charge and Distribution Connection Charge fees dependent on the size of water service/meter required to serve the site/building. IV FINDINGS A. Rezone Approval Criteria: In accordance with the provisions of the Yakima Municipal Code (YMC) § 15.23.030(D)(1-7), recommendations to approve or deny proposed rezones shall include the following consideration: 1. The testimony at the public hearing: A Notice of Application was mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the subject properties on November 8, 2017, wherein the public was invited to submit written and/or oral comments at the public hearing on this proposed rezone. No comments were received during the public comment period. 2. The suitability of the property in question for uses permitted under the proposed zoning: The subject property is suitable for uses permitted in the R-3 zoning district. As a project specific rezone, additional analysis on the proposed Class (3) land use to 10 INDEX 35 convert two of the three adult family homes on site to medical clinics and is provided in the report below. 3. The recommendation from interested agencies and departments: No agencies or department have registered any opposition to this rezone. 4. The extent to which the proposed amendments are in compliance with and/or deviate from the goals and policies as adopted in the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and the intent of this title: Rezoning the property from R-2 to R-3 maintains conformance with the Mixed Residential Future Land Use designation. Goals or Policies in the 2040 City of Yakima Comprehensive plan that support or encourage to proposed project are as follows: • Goal 2.3. Residential uses. Preserve and enhance the quality, character and function of Yakima's residential neighborhoods. • 2.3.2. Preserve and enhance established residential neighborhoods. Specifically: Policy 2.3.2.A. Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density, and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood. Policy 2.3.2.B. Protect the character of single family neighborhoods by focusing higher intensity land uses close to commercial and community services and transit. Policy 2.3.2.E. Carefully review proposed land use designation changes to more intensive residential designations, mixed-use, or industrial. Specifically: Proposals should conform to locational criteria set forth for the desired designation in the applicable policies under Goal 2.2. Avoid spot zones or similar changes that may create instability with the surrounding neighborhood. Goal 2.5. Arterial corridors and other mixed-use centers. Enhance the character, function, and economic vitality of Yakima's arterial corridors and mixed use centers. • Policy 2.5.1. Allow for a mixture of compatible land uses along corridors and within mixed-use designated areas. This includes the integration of multi -family residential and office uses with retail and service commercial uses. Provide zoning and design standards to maintain compatibility between different uses and zones. 5. The adequacy of public facilities, such as roads, sewer, water and other required public services: Along W Washington Ave. are various utilities which are available to serve the property, including City of Yakima Water, Cascade natural gas; Pacific Power; Centurylink telephone; Charter cable TV; and City of Yakima garbage collection services. City of Yakima Fire and Police departments also serve this area. Sewer is available to the site from Washington Ave. 11 INDEX 36 This property is served, or capable of being served, by all public utilities necessary to support development of the proposed conversion of two existing adult family homes into medical clinics. All abutting streets have sufficient carrying capacity to accommodate any future development. 6. The compatibility of the proposed zone change and associated uses with neighboring land uses: The rezone proposal from R-2 to R-3 has been proposed in an effort to create a clinic focused use on the site. One of the three buildings will remain as an adult family home. Besides adding parking to the site, there have been no significant changes proposed to the site. Changing the zoning to R-3 will create a 1.15 acre parcel where higher density housing units may be constructed in the future. 7. The public need for the proposed change: Rezoning the property to R-3 will be more in alignment with the use of an adult family home, which currently exists on the site. The applicant has also proposed converting two of the existing buildings in to clinics which will create more opportunity/space to serve persons will medical needs in the Yakima area. B. Proposed Class (3) Use: The proposed conversion of two adult family homes into two clinics will not add any new buildings onto the site, however, additional parking spaces are required as part of the proposed project. Sitescreening: A Sitescreening fence meeting the requirements of Standard C shall be required along the north, west and east property lines. Parking: for medical clinic 1 space per 200 square feet of gross floor area is required. Each clinic facility is 2,700 square feet in size, for a total of 5,400 square feet of clinic space. 5,400 sqft / 200 sqft = 33 parking spaces. The applicant has shown 33 parking spaces on the submitted site plan. Landscaping: The applicant has illustrated 33 parking spaces on the submitted site plan. 10% of the total parking area shall be landscaped — two trees are required as part of the 10% landscaping. Lot Coverage: The applicant proposes 77% lot coverage, which meets the R-3 zoning district standard of 80%. Setbacks: The applicant's proposed site plan meets or exceeds all required structure setbacks from property line(s) and from a residential district. Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies Goal 2.3. Residential uses. Preserve and enhance the quality, character and function of Yakima's residential neighborhoods. Policy 2.3.2. Preserve and enhance established residential neighborhoods. Specifically: 12 37 Policy 2.3.2.A. Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density, and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood. Policy 2.3.2.B. Protect the character of single family neighborhoods by focusing higher intensity land uses close to commercial and community services and transit. Policy 2.3.2.E. Carefully review proposed land use designation changes to more intensive residential designations, mixed-use, or industrial. Specifically: Proposals should conform to locational criteria set forth for the desired designation in the applicable policies under Goal 2.2. Avoid spot zones or similar changes that may create instability with the surrounding neighborhood. Goal 2.5. Arterial corridors and other mixed-use centers. Enhance the character, function, and economic vitality of Yakima's arterial corridors and mixed use centers. Policy 2.5.1. Allow for a mixture of compatible land uses along corridors and within mixed-use designated areas. This includes the integration of multi -family residential and office uses with retail and service commercial uses. Provide zoning and design standards to maintain compatibility between different uses and zones. CONCLUSIONS 1 The hearing examiner has jurisdiction to issue a recommendation on this application to the City Council. 2. The proposed Rezone and Class (3) use do not conflict with the goals and objectives of The Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, however, there are not goals and policies which support the conversion of two existing adult family homes into medical clinics in the R-3 zoning district. 3. SEPA review resulted in the issuance of a DNS on November 29, 2017. The appeal period for this determination ended December 13, 2017 — no appeal was filed. 4. No adverse impacts have been identified from granting this approval. 5. A Notice of Application was mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the subject properties on November 8, 2017, wherein the public was invited to submit written and/or oral comments at the public hearing on this proposed rezone. No comments were received during the public comment period. 6. This Rezone is compatible with the Future Land Use Map III -3 and Table III -11: Future Land Use and Current Zoning Comparison of the City of Yakima's 2040 Comprehensive Plan. 7. This proposed Type (3) review is compatible with the R-3 zoning district and adjacent properties and meets all applicable development standards. 8. Approval of these Rezone and Type (3) applications will have the following public benefits: potential for more diverse and affordable housing types in the future. 13 DOC. INDEX 38 VI.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Purpose of checklist: Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable" or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unkno You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision- making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: fhelpj For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONFROJECT ACTIONS (part E). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non -projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements —that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal. A. Background Them 1.

The potentially least compatible use would be industrial use to the east. Existing site screening has been established along the common property line with the industrial property and single family residence to the east and will not be removed or altered by this proposal. The proposed use is not substantially different from a compatibility standpoint to the existing land use. The facility fits in from a scale and visual standpoint with the school campus that partially surrounds it. The vacant property across Washington Avenue from the site to the south is screened by a 6 foot or higher fence which is more than sufficient sitescreening. m.

[NO( RECEWED OCT 2 0 2017 Narrative CITY OF YAKIMA PLAMG DIV. This is an application to change the zoning of a 1.15 acre parcel at 513 W. Washington Avenue from Two -Family Residential (R-2) to Multiple Family Residential (R-3). The purpose of the rezone is to allow two of three buildings that are now part of a group home to be converted to medical clinics. A Type 3 application is also included for that proposed use. The third building is to remain in its existing use as a group home but will be increased from 11 to 12 beds. Other site improvements are proposed to accommodate the proposed new use and comply with City development codes. A. How is the subject property suitable for uses permitted under the proposed zoning? Most of the land uses that are allowed in the R-3 zone, particularly residential uses, are also permitted in the R-2 zone, except with a lower level of required review in some cases. The site is no less suitable for R-3 zoning than it is for R-2 zoning. The full range of urban services that is specifically required for R-3 zones is available. The existing buildings are to be converted to the proposed new use with no changes other than internal remodeling and site improvements, mainly parking, that will be necessary to maintain compliance with City requirements. The site is large enough to accommodate these additional improvements while maintaining required standards including landscaping, sitescreening and lot coverage. What is the status of existing land use? The site is currently developed for a 23 -bed group home utilizing all three of the existing buildings. In order to avoid displacement impacts, the number of residents has been allowed to decrease through attrition to 12 currently living in the facility. All are in the two buildings proposed for conversion to medical clinics. When the rezone and land use application are approved, the residents will be relocated to the third building at the north end of the site which will continue to be operated as a group home, but with the number of beds increased by one from 11 currently to 12. B. How is the rezone request in compliance with and/or how does the request deviate from the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan? Both R-2 and R-3 zoning is allowed in areas designated Mixed Residential by the plan, and land uses allowed in the R-3 zone are similar and generally compatible with those allowed in the R-2 zone. Therefore, a plan amendment is not required. The following goals and policies support the proposed zoning. No goals or policies were identified from which the proposed zoning and land use would deviate. Goal 2.1 Establish a development pattern consistent with the community's vision. Policy 2.1.7. Allow new development only where adequate public services can be provided. Policy 2.1.10 Require properties to assume zoning consistent with the City's Future Land Use Plari, as adopted or as amended where appropriate. RECENED OCT 2 0 2017 CITY OF YAKIMA PLaNitel DIV. Goal 2.3 Residential Uses. Preserve and erihance the quality, character and function ofYakima's residential neighborhoods. Policy 2.3.1. Provide for a wide variety of housing types within the City to meet the ful range of housing needs for Yakima's evolving population. G. Senior and assis ed housing., Encourage these housing types in the R-2 and R-3 zones and commercial/mixed-use zones. Design standards should emphasize pedestrian -oriented design, facade articulation, and usable open space. Policy 2.3.2. Preserve and enhance established residential neighborhoods. Specifically: A. Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood. B. Protect the character of single family neighborhoods by focusing higher intensity land uses close to commercial and community services and transft. E. Carefully review proposed land use designation changes to more intensive residential designations, mixed use or industrial. Proposals should conform to locational criteria set forth for the desired designation in the applicable policies under Goal 2.2. 'm Is the site physically suited for the proposed designation? � Is the desired zone one of the implementing zones of the land use designation (per applicable policies under Goal 2.2)? � Avoid spot zones or similar changes that may create instability with the surrounding neighborhood. Policy 2.3'6` Allow some compatible nonresidential uses in residential zones, such as appropriately scaled schools, churches, parks and other public / community facilities, home occupations, day care centers, and other uses that provide places for people to gather. Maintain standards in the zoning code for Iocating and designing these uses in a manner that respects the character and scale of the neighborhood. Goal 2.5. Arterial corridors and other mixed-use centers. Enhance the character, function and economic vitality of Yakima's arterial corridors and mixed-use centers. Policy 2.5.1. Allow for a mixture of compatible land uses along corridors and within mixed-use designated areas. This includes the integration of multi- family residential and office uses with retail and service commercial zones. Provide zoning and design standards to maintain compatibility between different uses and zones. FIECEIVED OCT 2 0 20W 71 C. Update zoning and design provisions to promote compatibility CITY OF YAKIMA between different uses and zones. Examples include building PLANNING DIV, setbacks, building massing, landscaping buffers, fencing, service element location and design provisions, and vehicular parking and access provisions. Landscape buffers are particularly important elements that can effectively mitigate impacts of commercial uses on adjacent residential uses. Commercial development adjacent to Low Density Residential designated areas warrant the greatest compatibility design protections. The proposed zone change would not be illegal spot zoning as specified in Policy 2.3.2.E because it is not totally different and inconsistent with the classification of the surrounding land and it is in accordance with the comprehensive plan. C. Are there adequate public facilities, such as traffic capacity, sewer services, potable water, stormwater drainage, schools, fire and police services, and other public services and infrastructure existing on and around the subject property? The site is accessed from W. Washington Avenue, a four -lane minor arterial street with sufficient traffic capacity according to the comprehensive plan. Sewer and water service is already being provided to the buildings and with the reduction in full time residents, there should not be a significant increase in demand. Stormwater drainage is being provided on the site using an existing system of catch basins and drainage trenches. The proposed use does not increase the demand for schools. Police and emergency service need should be no greater than it is for the existing use. Are the existing public facilities capable of supporting the most intensive use of the new (requested) zone? If not, what mitigating measures are going to be implemented to address any short falls in public services that may exist? The most intensive allowable land use in the R-3 zone that would be possible on this small of a site would probably be multiple family residential. The same use could also be permitted under existing R-2 zoning through Type 2 review. In either zone, density and the overall size of such development would be limited by the area of the site, building height, lot coverage, parking requirements and area needed for required sitescreening. Because of the size of the site, these limitations should keep such a development, if it were to be proposed, small in scale and likely within existing public facility capacities of this site. The requirement for traffic concurrency would also limit it to that which would be within existing traffic capacity. The applicant does not plan to develop multiple family residential at this site. D. How is the proposed zone change compatible with the existing neighborhood uses? Surrounding land uses consist of Ridgeview Elementary School, vacant land across Washington Avenue to the south, and one single family residence to the east. The proposed clinics are similar in character in many ways to the existing group home on the site, in part because they will occupy the same buildings. They are compatible in scale and type with the school, a non- residential land use. Frontage on Washington Avenue, a four lane street, is better suited for non- residential or higher -density residential development. Potential conflicts would be the additional DOC. INDEX parking being provided with the single-family residence to the east and potential land use conflicts with industrial use of property to the east. What mitigating measures are planned to address incompatibility, such as sitescreening, buffering, building design, open space, traffic flow alteration, RECEIVED OCT 2 0 2017 Gill( OF YAKIMA etc? Sitescreening and landscaping meeting and/or exceeding City development code standards that include the following: a. Minimum of sitescreening Standard A (10' wide landscape strip) on the east property line contiguous to the single family residential property to the east. A continuous screen of full grown arborvitae (Standard B) and a view obscuring fence (Standard C) are also on this property line. b. Evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full grown arborvitae in most locations) along parking areas where contiguous to adjacent property in a residential zone (on parts of the north, west and east property lines). c. Existing two foot high wall in the required front yard (20 feet from the right-of-way) along Washington Avenue (YMC 15.06.030(D)). New parking spaces on the west end of the site are set back 20 feet from the street and would not be subject to this requirement. This area will remain in lawn or landscaping. d. Six foot high view obscuring fence in combination with evergreen hedge at least 6 feet in height (full grown arborvitae) along the property line where it is contiguous to the industrial use to the east. E. What is the public need for the proposed change? The proposed zoning change is not a substantial change from existing zoning because most of the permitted land uses are the same. As such, it continues to provide for the public need of the existing zoning. The proposed R-3 zoning implements the Mixed Residential future land use designation of the comprehensive plan. That designation was established with the adoption of the current comprehensive plan in 2017 and should be considered a change of circumstances from when the R-2 zoning was first established in this location. While R-3 zoning was considered to implement the previous plan designation of Medium Density Residential, it was not fully consistent with it because the prescribed densities were less. That is not the case of the new Mixed Residential designation. Type 3 Review Criteria A. Fully describe the proposed development, including number of dwelling units and parking spaces. If the proposal is for a business, describe hours of operation, days per week and all other relevant information related to the business. Convert two of the three existing buildings being used as a group home to two separate medical clinics. The third building will continue to be used as a 12 -bed group home. The two buildings DOC. INDEX 73 total 5,400 square feet requiring, along with the 12 -bed group home, a total of 33 parking spaces. Additional parking is to be provided to meet this standard. Expected hours of operation of the medical clinics is to be normal daytime business hours, five days a week. The group home, of course, will continue to operate on a 24 hour, seven day per week basis. B. How is the proposal compatible to neighboring properties? The proposed use represents little change to what is currently existing on the property. The primary difference being the additional parking that is being required. The site is surrounded on two sides by a school, with which the proposed and existing use are substantially compatible. The site fronts on Washington Avenue, a 4 -lane arterial and is better suited from a compatibility standpoint to that location than residential use. Across Washington Avenue, is vacant property enclosed by a six or more foot high solid fence that appears to be intended for future expansion of a residential condominium complex located further to the west. Orientation and layout of the buildings and private drives within that development, along with the fence, suggest that the development is to be oriented away from the arterial street. For these reasons, along with the arterial that separates them, there should be no compatibility issues from the proposed development on that property. The primary compatibility concerns would be with the single- family residence and industrial building and storage yard to the east. C. What mitigation measures are proposed to promote compatibility? Existing sitescreening, including sitescreening standard A and higher on the east property line next to the single-family residence and industrial property and parking lot sitescreening as required in R-3 zoning. New parking lot expansion is taking place on the west side of the site, opposite from the neighboring residence and will be outside of the required front yard setback. Sitescreening, in the form of an arborvitae screen is existing along most of the property line common with the school, although it is not currently required by code. D. How is your proposal consistent with the current zoning of your property? The purpose of the R-3 zoning district is to establish and preserve high-density residential neighborhoods by excluding activities not compatible with residential uses; locate high-density residential development in areas receiving the full range of urban services and near neighboring shopping facilities; and locate high-density residential development so that traffic it generates does not pass through lower -density residential areas. The district contains a variety of attached or clustered multiple -family dwellings (YMC 15.03.020(D)). Although the intent statement does not specifically reference the proposed medical clinics, they are permitted uses under YMC 15.04 subject to Type 3 Review. They are compatible with surrounding residential uses with the measures being described and given the type and character of this site and surrounding land uses. The site is receiving a full range of urban services. There is shopping nearby and traffic generated by the proposed use will exit directly on to an arterial street without passing through lower -density residential areas. RECEIVED OCT 2 0 2017 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANOC, DIV 74 E. How is your proposal consistent with uses and zoning of neighboring properties? It is consistent with surrounding land use that consists primarily of a school, which is a non- residential use with no compatibility issues. Sitescreening being provided next to the one single- family dwelling and industrial development to the east. F. How is your proposal in the best interest of the community? Existing, proposed and potential uses of the site: group home, medical clinics and other residential land uses permitted in the R-3 zone are community services that benefit the community, are in demand and needed.
