TO: City of Yakima Planning Commission
FROM: Mark Kunkler, Senior Assistant City Attorney
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendment — Zoning Code — "Mission" Use
A. Issue Presented — Elackg rouund.
In 1992 and 1995, the Hearing Examiner issued two "interpretations" regarding the appropriate
land use definition and designation associated with Union Gospel Mission activities and its
desired move to its new location on North Street. The types of services provided by the Union
Gospel Mission in one location included homeless shelter, food service and health care. This
"mix" of services was not specifically defined in the Yakima Municipal Code. Under the City's
Zoning Code, an unclassified use may be referred to the Hearing Examiner for an Interpretation
(Chapter 15.22 YMC). The Union Gospel Mission's proposed new site was in the "CBDS
Central Business District Support" zoning district' — and a portion of property zoned M-1 Light
Industrial.
The City of Yakima proposed that Union Gospel Mission's proposed mix of uses was a
"community center" -type use. The Hearing Examiner looked at the definition of "community
center" as well as "halfway house" — and determined that neither existing definition accurately
described the mix of uses proposed by the Union Gospel Mission. Instead, the Hearing
Examiner developed a new defined land use known as a "mission" use, which read:
Mission means a facility typically owned or operated by a public agency or non-profit corporation,
providing a variety of services for the disadvantaged, typically including but not limited to
temporary housing for the homeless, dining facilities, health and counseling activities, whether or
not of a spiritual nature, with such services being generally provided to the public at large.
The Hearing Examiner's Interpretation also ruled that a "Mission" use would be a Class (2) use
within the GC General Business and CBD Central Business District zoning districts. In re:
' The "CBDS" zoning district was subsequently amended to be the "GC General Commercial" zoning
district.

Union Gospel Mission, City No. UAZO-Interp. No. 1-92, Examiner No. 192-5-2 (Lamb, Feb. 27,
1992). In 1995, the Hearing Examiner further ruled that a "Mission" use would be allowed as a
Class (2) use within the M-1 Light Industrial zoning district. In re: Modification of Interpretation,
Union Gospel Mission, Interpretation No. 2-95, Examiner No. 195-5-27 (Lamb, June 9, 1995).
No appeal of either Interpretation was made to the City Council. Under City of Yakima
procedures, the Hearing Examiner's Interpretations were retained on file and became a
precedent applicable to any future requests for similar uses.
The attached proposed Ordinance simply amends YMC 15.04.020 in incorporate the Hearing
Examiner's definition of "Mission," and amends Table 4-1 of YMC 15.04.030 (Health and Social
Service Facilities component) to add "Mission" use as a Class (2) use in the GC, CBD and M-1
zoning districts. In short, the Ordinance simply incorporates the Hearing Examiner's 1992 and
1995 interpretations as part of the City's Zoning Code.
The moratorium implemented when the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2014-027 on
October 2, 2014 prohibits submission of applications for, processing of, and issuance of land
use approvals and permits for "mission" uses and analogous uses within the SCC Small
Convenience Center district. The next section analyses the provisions of the SCC zoning
district as it currently reads, and provides more detail regarding the previous Hearing Examiner
Interpretations regarding "mission" uses.
B. Discussion.
1. City of Yakimai. Zoning - Permifted Uses - SCC Zone.
Zoning and land uses in the City of Yakima are governed by the provisions and procedures of
Title 15 YMC and Chapter 35.63 RCW. Under the Zoning Code, the types of zoning districts
(Chapter 15.03 YMC) and "permitted uses" within each zoning district (Chapter 15.04 YMC and
Table 4-1) are set forth. "Permitted uses" are specifically listed for each zoning district in Table
4-1 (YMC 15.04.030) and are categorized as Class (1), Class (2) or Class (3) uses.2 If a
particular use is not listed as a "permitted land use" in Table 4-1, it is not permitted in that
zoning district. As stated in YMC 15.04.020(D):
2 "Class (1)" uses are outright permitted uses, such as a single-family house in the R-1, Single Family
Residential District. "Class (2)" uses are uses that are "generally permitted" in the district, but may involve
environmental effects that are incompatible with the surrounding neighborhood. Thus the Type 2 review
process may include a public hearing on compatibility of the proposed use with the neighborhood. "Class
(3)" uses generally are not permitted in a neighborhood, but may be allowed by a hearing examiner, after
public hearing, if the hearing examiner finds that mitigations or conditions can be imposed to alleviate
incompatible effects.

Page 4
Nursing Homes are not permitted in the SCC District. The only type of permitted use would be
"Treatment Centers for Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation" - and that only with a Type 3 Review
(as a Class 3 use).'
3 The YMC 15.02.020 definitions for the uses listed in Table 4-1 above for the SCC district are as follows;
"Adult Family Home" means a regular family abode, licensed by the state, in which a person or
persons provide personal care, special care, room, and board to more than one but not more than
six adults who are not related by blood or marriage to the person or persons providing the
services (RCW 70.128.175).
"Boardinghouse" means an establishment providing both lodging and meals for not more than ten
persons residing in the facility on a permanent or semi-permanent basis.
"Convalescent or nursing home" means an establishment providing nursing, dietary and other
personal services to convalescents, invalids, or aged persons, but not mental cases or cases for
contagious or communicable diseases which are customarily treated in sanitariums and hospitals.
"Group home" means a place for handicapped, physically or developmentally disabled adults, or
dependent or predelinquent children, providing special care in a homelike environment. This
definition includes homes of this nature for six or fewer persons, excluding house parents, which
are protected by state or federal law as residential uses.
Halfway House. A "halfway house" shall include residentially oriented facilities that provide;
1. State -licensed group care homes for juvenile delinquents;
2. Houses providing residence in lieu of instructional sentencing;
3. Houses providing residence to individuals needing correctional institutionalization; or
4. Detoxification centers licensed by the state where alcohol and drug abusers can be placed
in lieu of incarceration for detoxification and treatment from effects of alcohol and drugs. (See
"Clean and sober facility.")
"Clean and sober facility' is currently defined at YMC 15.02.020 as follows:
"Clean and sober facility" means a commercial business providing a dwelling or building for occupation
by rehabilitated alcohol and/or drug users, during their re-entry into the community. The clean and
sober facility provides residentially oriented facilities for the rehabilitation or social adjustment of
persons who may need supervision or assistance in becoming socially reoriented, but who do not
need institutional care. (Also see "Halfway house.")
"Treatment Centers for Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation" is not defined in YMC 15.02.020,
Memorandum - Zoning Regulation - Homeless Facilities
January 9, 2015
Page 5
"Homeless shelter," "homeless service facility" and/or "homeless residential facility" are not
listed as permitted uses anywhere in Table 4-1. However, previous Interpretations by the City
of Yakima Hearing Examiner have identified a "Mission" use which would be a Class 2 use in
the Central Business District (CBD), the General Commercial District (GC) and the Light
Industrial District (M-1). The definition of "Mission" use as developed by the hearing examiner
states as follows:
Mission means a facility typically owned or operated by a public agency or non-profit corporation,
providing a variety of services for the disadvantaged, typically including but not limited to
temporary housing for the homeless, dining facilities, health and counseling activities, whether or
not of a spiritual nature, with such services being generally provided to the public at large.
In re: Union Gospel Mission, City No. UAZO-Interp. No. 1-92, Examiner No. 192-5-2 (Lamb,
Feb. 27, 1992), at page 1; In re: Modification of Interpretation, Union Gospel Mission,
Interpretation No. 2-95, Examiner No. 195-5-27 (Lamb, June 9, 1995)(copies attached).
The hearing examiner had been asked to render an Interpretation pursuant to Chapter 15.22
YMC because the services to be provided by the Union Gospel Mission, including services to
the homeless, were not specifically listed in Table 4-1 and were thus "unclassified uses." If a
proposed use is an "unclassified use," YMC 15.04.040 provides:
15.04.040 Unclassified uses.
Any use not listed in Table 4-1 is an unclassified use and shall be permitted only in those districts
so designated by the hearing examiner. Any unclassified use permitted in a particular zoning
district shall be allowed only as a Class (2) or (3) use. The hearing examiner shall follow the
provisions of YMC Chapter 15.22 when determining which zoning districts are appropriate for a
particular unclassified use.
The hearing examiner is given authority to determine the appropriate zoning district for a
particular "unclassified use" pursuant to Chapter 15.22 YMC, which provides in pertinent part:
15.22.010 Purpose.
The purpose of this chapter is to define the responsibilities, rules and procedures for clarifying the
text of this title, the zoning map that it incorporates, and the rules and regulations adopted
pursuant to it.
15.22.040 Notice of examiner's decision.
A. The hearing examiner shall mail a written copy of his interpretation to the applicant, the
Yakima County planning department, the city of Yakima department of community and economic

development, and their respective administrative officials. Such notice shall be provided within
thirty days from the date of his receipt of an application for interpretation or such longer period of
time as may be agreed to by the applicant.
B. The hearing examiner shall clearly state the analysis and reasons upon which any
interpretation is based and, if the interpretation is a use interpretation, how the interpretation is
consistent with the specific conditions established in YMC 15.22.050.
C. The department shall keep a copy of each interpretation on file and shall make a copy
available for public inspection during regular business hours.
15.22.050 Use interpretations.
The following conditions shall govern the hearing examiner in issuing use interpretations (see
YMC 15.04.040):
A. No use interpretation shall vary the location or review requirements of any use listed in
Table 4-1 or home occupation listed in Table 4-2.
B. No use interpretation shall permit any use in any zoning district unless evidence is
presented which demonstrates that it will comply with the intent and development standards
established for the particular district.
15.22.070 Appeals.
The hearing examiner's decision on an interpretation may be appealed under YMC Chapter 15.16
[Appeal to the City Council].
The 1992 Interpretation ruled that a "mission" was an allowable Class 2 use in the Central
Business District (CBD) and the Central Business District Support (CBDS) zoning districts. The
definition of the CBD and the CBDS at the time was as follows:
Central Business District CBD . The purpose of the central business district is to preserve the
central business district of the City of Yakima as the region's center of commerce, industry,
recreation, and culture. This district is characterized by very intensive development and a variety
of land uses including retail sales and service establishments, high-density residential
development, financial institutions, professional buildings, and government offices.
CBD Sul2port District (CBDS). The purpose of the CBD support district is to accommodate
wholesale and retail activities with some high-density residential development. This district is
primarily located near the central business district and along the major arterials leading to the
central business district. Like the CBD district, a variety of land uses are permitted. However, the
intensity of development is intended to be less than in the CBD district.
Sections 15.03.030(10), (11) YMC, as amended through October 1, 1993.4 Because it was
later revealed that the Union Gospel Mission site on North Street also included property zoned
4 The definition of the CBD as set forth above was quoted by the hearing examiner in his 1992
Interpretation, and the provisions of the CBDS definitions summarized. Current provisions of the Yakima
Municipal Code contain amended provisions — and the CBDS has been amended to become the General
Commercial District (GC). The current definitions are set forth in YMC 15.03.020(L) and (K) as follows:
Memorandum - Zoning Regulation - Homeless Facilities
January 9, 2015
Page 7
M-1 Light Industrial, the "Mission" use was also extended as a Class 2 use in the M-1 zone,
subject to specific conditions dealing with the Union Gospel Mission property and operations. In
re: Modification of Interpretation, Union Gospel Mission, Interpretation No. 2-95, Examiner No.
195-5-27 (Lamb, June 9, 1995).
3. Applying the "Mission" Definition to the SCC Zone.
Neither of Hearing Examiner Lamb's Interpretations extended the "Mission" use to the SCC
zoning district. The Small Convenience Center District (SCC) was included in the version of the
Yakima Municipal Code existing when the hearing examiner rendered his 1992 and 1995
Interpretations regarding the Union Gospel Mission. YMC 15.03.030(8) provided:
8. Small Convenience Center District SCC . The purpose and intent of the small
convenience center district is to:
Provide areas for commercial activities outside the central business district that
meet the retail shopping and service needs of the community; and
b. Accommodate small commercial centers, generally three to ten acres in size,
where most of the commercial uses have located in a coordinated manner
around a common parking lot.
Small convenience centers serve the day-to-day convenience shopping and service needs of the
surrounding neighborhood and should be designed to minimize the undesirable impacts of the
center on the neighborhood it serves. Uses in this district should be retail or personal service
establishments dealing directly with the consumer, the primary occupants usually being a
supermarket and drug store.
L. Central Business District (CBD). The purpose of the central business district is to preserve the
sines district of the city of Yakima as the region's center of commerce, finance, government,
industry, recreation, and culture. This district is characterized by very intensive development and a
variety of land uses including retail sales and service establishments, high-density residential
development, financial institutions, professional buildings, and government offices.
K. General Commercial District (GC). The purpose of the general commercial district is to
accommodate wholesale and retail activities with some high-density residential development. This
district is primarily located near and along the major arterials as designated in the Yakima urban area
c m r hen ive plan. Like the CBD district, a variety of land uses are permitted. However, the intensity
of development is intended to be less than in the CBD district.
(Differences from prior language underlined.)

In the current code, Small Convenience Center District ("SCC" or "SCC District") is defined at
YMC 15.03.020(H) as follows:
H. Small Convenience Center District (SCC). The purpose and intent of the small convenience
center district is to:
1. Provide areas for commercial activities outside the downtown commercial district that
meet community retail shopping and service needs; and
2. Accommodate small commercial centers, generally two to five acres in size, where
most of the commercial uses have located in a coordinated manner around a common
parking lot and one maior commercial approach drivewa
Small convenience centers serve the day-to-day convenience shopping and service needs of the
surrounding neighborhood and should be designed to minimize undesirable impacts of the center
on the neighborhood it serves. Uses in this district should be retail or personal service
establishments dealing directly with the consumer, the primary occupants usually being such uses
as a supermarket, fast food restaurants and drug store.
(Differences underlined.)
It should be noted that the hearing examiner in 1992 and 1995 did not consider whether a
"Mission" use should be extended to the SCC zoning district - primarily because the Union
Gospel Mission was seeking an Interpretation dealing with its chosen site on North Street,
which was zoned CBDS and M-1. However, the hearing examiner ruled that a "Mission" use
was an appropriate Class 2 use in the CBD zoning district, and conceivably his determination
could be construed as an indication that the Mission use should be limited to the CBD, GC and
M-1 zones.5
Nevertheless, the 1992 Interpretation establishes a working definition of the "Mission" use
which is applicable to analysis of whether such use is appropriate in other zoning districts,
including the SCC zoning district. As the hearing examiner noted when describing the history of
Union Gospel Mission activities, the City of Yakima (and Yakima County) had previously
characterized the mission's activities as a "community center." "Community center" is defined
at YMC 15.02.020 as follows:
"Community center" means a facility owned and operated by a public agency or nonprofit
corporation, provided the principal use of the facility is for public assistance, community
improvement, or public assembly.6
5 The General Commercial (GC) zoning district is the successor to the CBDS zoning district.
6 The version of the definition used in 1992 was virtually identical:
Memorandum - Zoning Regulation - Homeless Facilities
January 9, 2015
Page 9
The parties also contended that the proposed Mission could be a "halfway house." "Halfway
house" was defined in 1992 at YMC 15.02.020 as follows:
Halfway House means a home for juvenile delinquents and adult offenders leaving correctional
and/or mental institutions; or a rehabilitation center for alcohol and/or drug users; which provides
residentially oriented facilities for the rehabilitation or social adjustment of persons who need
supervision or assistance in becoming socially reoriented, but who do not need institutional care.'
Community Center means a facility owned and operated by a public agency or nonprofit
corporation, provided, that the principal use of the facility is for public assistance, community
improvement, or public assembly.
(Difference underlined.)
The current code has been substantially changed:
Halfway House. A "halfway house" shall include residentially oriented facilities that provide:
1. State -licensed group care homes for juvenile delinquents;
2. Houses providing residence in lieu of instructional sentencing;
3. Houses providing residence to individuals needing correctional institutionalization; or
4. Detoxification centers licensed by the state where alcohol and drug abusers can be
placed in lieu of incarceration for detoxification and treatment from effects of alcohol and
drugs. (See "Clean and sober facility.")
"Clean and sober facility' is currently defined at YMC 15.02.020 as follows:
"Clean and sober facility" means a commercial business providing a dwelling or building for occupation
by rehabilitated alcohol and/or drug users, during their re-entry into the community. The clean and
sober facility provides residentially oriented facilities for the rehabilitation or social adjustment of
persons who may need supervision or assistance in becoming socially reoriented, but who do not
need institutional care. (Also see "Halfway house.")
As noted above, "halfway houses" are not permitted in the SCC zone. "Community centers" are listed as Class
2 uses in the SCC zone according to Table 4-1, YMC 15.03.030. "Clean and sober facilities" are not
specifically listed in Table 4-1, but "treatment centers for drug and alcohol rehabilitation" are listed as Class 3
uses in the SCC zone.
"Boardinghouses" are also not permitted in the SCC zone. A "boardinghouse" is defined at YMC 15.02.020 as:
"Boardinghouse" means an establishment providing both lodging and meals for not more than ten
persons residing in the facility on a permanent or semi-permanent basis.
Memorandum - Zoning Regulation - Homeless Facilities
January 9, 2015
Page 10
The hearing examiner noted that the definition of "community center" was overly broad, and
would include "all government facilities, including juvenile detention centers, jails, office
buildings, schools, and hospitals, all of which nevertheless have their own listing in Table 4-1."
After reviewing the definition of "halfway house," the hearing examiner observed:
The [Union Gospel] Mission does some of that. It does some of the community center activity
also. But it is not just a community center, it is not just a halfway house. It is a combination of
uses, for which this [zoning] ordinance does not provide much guidance in evaluating.
In re: Union Gospel Mission, supra at 7. Consequently, the hearing examiner drafted a new
definition for "Mission" uses.
The definition of "Mission" use would still supply a valid working definition covering "homeless
residential and services centers." Applying current code, the Mission use is limited to the CBD,
GC and M-1 zoning districts.
In reviewing the issue of whether a Mission use is compatible with the SCC zoning district
purposes, it will be noted that the SCC zone currently does not permit halfway houses,
boardinghouses, group homes, or convalescent and nursing homes. "Halfway house" includes
a reference to "clean and sober facility," which by implication would not be permitted in the SCC
zoning district. The only treatment facility uses allowed (as a Class 3 use) are "treatment
centers for drug and alcohol rehabilitation." But again, Class 3 uses are presumed incompatible
with the neighborhood.
The Small Convenience Center District ("SCC' or "SCC District") is defined at YMC
15.03.020(H) as follows:
H. Small Convenience Center District (SCC). The purpose and intent of the small convenience
center district is to:
1. Provide areas for commercial activities outside the downtown commercial district
that meet community retail shopping and service needs; and
2. Accommodate small commercial centers, generally two to five acres in size, where
most of the commercial uses have located in a coordinated manner around a common
parking lot and one major commercial approach driveway.
Small convenience centers serve the day-to-day convenience shopping and service needs of
the surrounding neighborhood and should be designed to minimize undesirable impacts of the
center on the neighborhood it serves. Uses in this district should be retail or personal service
establishments dealing directly with the consumer, the primary occupants usually being
such uses as a supermarket, fast food restaurants and drug store.
Memorandum - Zoning Regulation - Homeless Facilities
January 9, 2015
Page 11
(Emphasis added.) The primary purpose of the SCC district is retail commercial sales and retail
consumer services for the convenience of the neighborhood. The City Council, by adopting the
code and Table 4-1 specifically ruled that residential service and care facilities were not
permitted. A "Mission" use would be closer in character to the unpermitted uses of halfway
house and boardinghouse, and should be deemed incompatible with the purposes of the SCC
district.
s s s, .,94TV
As noted above, the attached "proposed Ordinance" simply incorporates the 1992 and 1995
Hearing Examiner Interpretations into the Yakima Municipal Code. It amends YMC 15.02.020
to include the definition of "mission." It also would amend Table 4-1 to allow a mission use as a
Class (2) use within the GC, CBD and M-1 zoning districts. It would retain the current
prohibition of "mission" uses within the SCC zoning district.

standard of legal review and the level of public comment required
by the Urban Area Zoning ordinance. The purpose of this
interpretation is to review the nature of the activities conducted
by the Mission, and determine whether those activities fit within
any- existing use classifications of -the zoning ordinance. If not,
then a new use will be established and defined, with a specified
level of review.
The Mission is a non-profit corporation providing a range of
services. It has served the Yakima area for 56 years and has
always been located in downtown Yakima.
The Mission's primary purpose is the provision of spiritual
and material support for those in need. In the past year it has
served over 140,000 meals in-house; provided nearly 2,000 boxes of
food to the community; provided clothing and other staples; as well
as operating two dental clinics, a foot clinic, and providing
showers and similar facilities. These services are all provided on
a non-residential basis and constitute a substantial portion of the
services provided by the Mission. The Mission also provides
residential facilities. Within the existing facility typically 20
to 30 men and women are provided shelter in times of need. The
Mission also provides spiritually oriented assistance to those
having difficulty in coping with difficult situations, such as
divorce, alcohol, drugs, etc.
The Mission also operates a youth center consisting of a
17,000 square foot building located at 4th and Spruce. The center
provides programs for 50 to 70 children each day, including Girl
Scouts, Boy Scouts, boxing, crafts, and basketball.
Information in other applications for relocation submitted by
the Mission describe the proposed use as providing food and lodging
facilities for homeless men and families; drug and alcohol
rehabilitation; ministry, and related services. Proposed
faCilities have included a dormitory and family shelter, dining and

standards for that zoning district are met. Class 2 uses are
erall..y permitted in a given zone, but compatibility between a
Class 2 use in the surrounding environnent cannot be determined in
advance and occasionally a Class 2 use may be incompatible at a
particular location. Class 2 uses are reviewed by an
Administrative official, with an opportunity for comment by
landowners within 300 feet. Class 2 uses can be forwarded for
Class 3 review at the discretion of the Administrative Official, or
his or her decision can be appealed to the Examiner for Class 3
review (YMC 15.04.020), which results in a public hearing.
Class 3 uses are generally not permitted in a particular zone,
but may be allowed by the Hearing Examiner after Class 3 review and
public hearing. The Examiner may approve, deny, or conditionally
approve the proposed use in order to promote compatibility with the
intent and character of the zoning district and the objectives and
development criteria of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan
(YMC 15.04.020).
Any use which is not listed in Table 4-1 is an unclassified
use and shall be permitted only in those zoning districts so
designated by the Hearing Examiner, in which case it shall be
allowed only as a Class 2 or Class 3 use (YMC 15.04.040). The
Interpretations chapter of the zoning ordinance governs this
determination by the Hearing Examiner. The following conditions
concerning use interpretations are imposed by YMC 15.22.050: No
use interpretation shall vary the location or review requirements
of any use listed in Table 4-1. Furthermore, no use interpretation
shall permit any use in any zoning district unless evidence is
presented which demonstrates that it will comply with the intent
and development standards established for that particular zone.
The Examiner's interpretation may be appealed, in this
instance to the City Council, pursuant to YMC 15.22.070 and YMC
Ch.15.16.

Public participation and review, so the issue of the applicable
standard of review was not squarely met. After approving the
Holtzinger Building as a Class 2 use in the CBD under the community
center classification, the Urban Area Zoning Ordinance was amended
by the City and the County to designate community centers as a
Class 1 use in the downtown zones (CBD and CBDS). - Documentary
evidence of the reason for the amendment is not part of this
record, nor is there any oral evidence in the record from any of
the elected officials involved. Any conclusions concerning
legislative intent based upon recollections of this Examiner or
Planning staff are too speculative to base an imputation of
legislative intent by others.
The Terrace Heights application in 1991 was also treated as a
community center; because a floodplain in an industrial zone was
involved, it was subject to Class 2 review. By stipulation the
Mission agreed to a public hearing in order to expedite processing
of the application, given the likelihood of appeal in any event.
As reflected in this Examiner's decision denying the application,
it was recognized at that time that there was room for argument as
to whether it was a "Community center" or a "halfway house," which
is a Class 3 use in the M-1 zone at issue there.
5-ts Examiner No.
091-1-40, pg. 10. After noting that it could be treated as a
community center, a class 2 use in that zone, or as a halfway
house, a Class 3 use in that zone, this Examiner at page 11 stated:
For purposes of analysis under the zoning ordinance this
will be treated as a Class 3 land use, meaning that it is
subject to the highest level of review under the
ordinance. . . . Whether categorized as a Class 2 or a
Class 3 use, the Examiner is obligated to determine that.

Ld, at p.11. The application was denied because it did not comply
with the zoning ordinance and comprehensive plan, regardless of
whether it was a Class 2 or Class 3 use. It was unnecessary to

decide the class of use.
Presumably for a variety of reasons that decision was not
appealed to the Yakima Board of County Commissioners. It does not
have much precedential value, because it does not have even the
suture of a trial court decision, but it does reflect that there
has been some ongoing confusion as to the type of use involved and
the appropriate level of review. Because it was at least a Class
2 use in that zone the application did receive public review.
This zoning ordinance, and specifically its Table of Uses with
related definitions, is the best guide to resolution of this
problem. There are zoning cases on the books dealing with
categorization of missions, halfway houses, and community centers,
but they are all unique to the specific zoning ordinance involved.
As an example, a Pennsylvania case determined that a land use
defined as a "community center" also included a "halfway house,"'
which apparently was not otherwise dealt with in the zoning
ordinance. The court ruled that a halfway house, used to educate
young people and their parents to the dangers of drug use and
abuse, counseling and advising drug users and former addicts, and
for referring such people to outside sources of medical, legal, and
spiritual aid and to employment and recreational communities was a
"'community center or similar use" as set forth in -the local zoning
ordinance. ori t Re , 328
A.2d 901, 16 PA. CMWLTH. 356 (1974). That case is distinguishable
from our situation in that our zoning ordinance defines both
halfway house and community center.
In a New Jersey will contest case the definition of mission
came up. That court cited with approval an old Connecticut case in
which the court stated:
By universal acceptance the word "missionary," whether as
a noun or adjective, embraces, not only the conception of
a religious, charitable, or educational work or worker,
but also such a work done through philanthropic motives,
for the welfare of others too poor, too unappreciative,
or too indifferent to do it themselves, and by persons

supported or means furnished in part at -least by some
agency of which those for whom the work is done do not
form a sustaining part.
al., 14 A.2d 490, 127 N.J. EQ. 518 (1940).
That definition, however stilted, clearly describes this
Mission's activities. That definition, and a description of this
Mission's activities, also describe a use different from either a
community center or a halfway house.
This ordinance defines community center as meaning:
fac,ili,ty.. owned and operated by a public agency or non-
profit corporation, provided that the principal use of
the facility is for public assistance, Community
improvement, or public assembly.
YMC 15.02.020, p.9.
That definition, without reference to other provisions of the
ordinance, would include all government facilities, including
juvenile detention facilities, jails, office buildings, schools,
and hospitals, all of which nevertheless have their own listing in
Table 4-1.
Halfway house is defined as meaning:
A home for juvenile delinquents and adult offenders
leaving correctional and/"or mental institutions, or a
rehabilitation center for alcohol and/or drug users;
which provides residentially oriented facilities for the
rehabilitation or social adjustment of persons who need
supervision or assistance in becoming socially reoriented
but who do not need institutional care.
YMC 15.02.020, p.11.
This Mission does some of that. It does some of the community
center activity also. But it is not just a community center, it is
not just a halfway house. It is a combination of uses, for which
this ordinance does not provide much guidance in evaluating.
Reviewing the various uses listed in Table 4-1 is helpful.
Community centers are lumped with meeting halls and fraternal
organizations, and treated as a Class 1 use in this zone, as
compared to halfway houses which are treated as a Class 3 use.

HEARING EXAMINER

CITY AND COUNTY OF YAKIMA
POST OFFICE BOX s
YAKMA. WASHINGTON 96907
(509) 2AS-0706
Detention centers are a Class 3 use in CBD and CBDS, as are
hospitals. The Mission's activities do not rise to the level of a
detention center or hospital, but they are more intensive than a
group home, which is a Class 1 use. Group homes are defined as:
A place for handicapped, physically or developmentally
disabled adults, or dependent or predelinquent children,
providing special care in a homelike environment.
YMC 15.02.020, p.11.
High density multi -family dwelling units are typically a Class
1 use in the CBD, and a Class 3 use in the CBDS, whereas the same
density of dwelling units in a planned residential development are
treated as Class 2 uses in both zones. Boarding houses are a Class
1 use in CBD, and a Class 2 in CBDS, as are retirement homes.
Boarding houses are defined as:
An establishment providing both lodging and meals for not
more than 10 persons residing in the facility on a
permanent or semi-permanent basis.
YMC 15.02.020, p.6.
The Mission's level of activity is clearly more than a
boarding house with 10 or fewer people.
By comparison, nearly all retail uses are Class 1 in both
zones. Hotels, for instance, have almost identical activities to
the Mission, and are treated as a Class 1 use. This is consistent
with the definition of Central Business District, which:
is to preserve the Central Business District of the City
of Yakima as the regionts center of commerce, industry,
recreation and culture. This District is characterized
by very intensive development and a variety of land uses
including retail, sales and service establishments, high
density residential development, financial institutions,
professional buildings and government offices.
YMC 15.03.030.10.
The definition of the CBD Support District is expanded to
accommodate both wholesale and retail activities, with some high
density residential development (YMC 15.03.020.11). Given the
focus of the zones, it is appropriate that retail uses be Class 1.
Although similar, the Mission's activities are not typically

thought of as a traditional retail use. It has been suggested that
it is the type of user of the Mission, rather than the type of
activities, which is at the root of the problem and that this has
been treated not as a question of the appropriate land use but as
to who uses the land. Stereotypes, prejudices, and public
perceptions as to the type of clientele utilizing the Mission's
services are in fact a central part of the controversy. This city
has a legitimate public interest in fostering a downtown
environment in which retail uses can co -exist, peacefully and
prosperously, with necessary public and social services. No retail
area can long survive, regardless of the opinions of store owners,
if the public has a perception that an area is unsafe or for some
reason undesirable. It is government's obligation to develop
rational regulations which recognize and balance the legitimate
constitutional and legal expectations of the whole community.
Determining that the Mission is a specific type of use subject
to public input prior to its approval simply creates a process by
which the public can help government recognize and balance various
viewpoints. Class 2 review means, in the terms of this ordinance,
that the use is generally permitted but on occasion may be
incompatible. That can be said for practically any use in any.
area. Table 4-1 indicates that many activities are subject to some
level of public review before being located in the downtown
business zones. This includes higher density planned residential
developments, which under the explicit definition of the downtown
zones is encouraged to be downtown. The point of public review is
not to discriminate or to provide a means to discriminate. In any
subsequent review of the Mission, the burden on both the public and
the government will be to review the application in a principled
manner, without succumbing to bias or prejudice, with the decision
based upon objective reasoning and logical conclusions. As
recognized by the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, public
preference is to be considered, but public preference alone can

rarely, if ever, be the sole determinant for locating unpopular or
locally undesirable land uses.
An argument has been raised that substantial deference should
be paid to the staff determination, by both the City and the
County, that the Mission should be treated as a community center.
This of course is the typical rule of administrative law. -Mall,
v• Seatt e, 108 Wn.2d 369, 739 P.2d 668 (1987), was cited at
the hearing as illustrative. In that case an administrative
determination had been appealed to the Hearing Examiner, who upheld
the administrative determination. On appeal to the trial court,
that court upheld the Hearing Examiner. The Washington Supreme
Court in upholding the lower decision ruled that considerable
judicial deference should be given to the construction of an
ordinance by those officials charged with its enforcement, meaning
in that instance the administrative official and the Hearing
Examiner.
While this Examiner will certainly appreciate any deference he
-may ever receive in the future from any judge, this Examiner is so
low on the totem pole that there is no one else to defer to. As
reflected above, the issue has been in controversy for some time,
has never been clearly resolved, and accordingly the city Planning
Department when they received a request for interpretation
forwarded it directly to the Examiner. Staff has never had to deal
with the issue head-on before, simply because the ordinance
provisions applicable at the time always accorded public review.
In the first instance, Holtzinger, the Mission got what they
requested, with no public outcry. In the second, Terrace Heights,
they failed after stipulating to a public hearing, and did not
appeal. For all practical purposes the issue is a matter of first
impressioninow, and the staff is following the method set forth in
the ordinance to obtain an interpretation.
The activities encompassed by the Mission are consistent with
the intent and development standards of both the Central Business

District and Central Business District Support zones. Class 2
review is appropriate in order to determine, based upon a specific
factual circumstance, if there are any issues which present
compatibility concerns. Defining the Mission as a Class 2 use has
the effect of creating a presumption that the use is permitted, but
permits some public review.
