DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST: On February 7, 2019, the City of Yakima Department of Community Development received an application to subdivide 8.7 acres of Single -Family (R-1) zoned property into 32 -single-family lots. II. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATION: The Administrative Official recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat, subject to conditions. Ill. FACTS: A. Statement of Cause: Pursuant to YMC Ch. 14.20, the applicant's statement in the Preliminary Long Plat application dated February 7, 2019 — This proposed plat will subdivide approximately 8.7 acres into 32 Single -Family lots. Lot sizes will range from approximately 8,300 s.f. to 10,200 s.f. The lots will have a frontage on a public roadway which will be improved as part of this project. B. Comprehensive Plan. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map designate the subject property as suitable for Low Density Residential development. Single-family detached dwellings are the predominant dwelling type. Other dwelling types may be allowed under certain circumstances, such as accessory dwellings and cottage housing. The permitted density is up to seven net dwelling units per acre for infill development. On larger sites (over two Yakima D000 INDEX 11111F 2015 1994 acres), more flexibility in lot sizes and layout are envisioned, provided overall density standards are met. Permitted maximum densities on large sites is up to seven gross dwelling units per acre. Density bonuses allowing up to six gross dwelling units may be allowed subject to conformance with traditional neighborhood design concepts. Generally, the proposed preliminary plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's other provisions which encourage infill, recognize the need for public water and sewer, encourage disposal of surface drainage on-site, and encourage development consistent with the general land use pattern in the area. The Goals and Policies that apply to this designation and proposed land use are as follows: Goal 2.3. Residential uses. Preserve and enhance the quality, character and Function of Yakima's residential neighborhoods. Policy 2.3.1.B. Standard single family. Continue to allow for detached single family dwellings in residential districts. Policy 2.3.3 Create walkable residential neighborhoods with safe streets and good connections to schools, parks, transit, and commercial services. Policy 2.3.3.A Construct sidewalks along all new residential streets Policy 2.3.3.13 Promote small block sizes to ensure good connectivity and reduced walking distances between residences and schools, parks, and services. Specifically: • Low density residential: Blocks between 400- 800 feet long are appropriate. • Mixed residential: Blocks between 300-660 feet long are appropriate. Provide for through public through block connections for large residential blocks. Commercial and mixed-use designations: Configure development to provide pedestrian connections at 300 to 660 feet intervals. Configure development to provide vehicular connections at 600 to 1,320 feet intervals. Allow flexibility for private internal streets to meet connectivity objectives. Goal 5.2. Preserve and improve existing residential neighborhoods. Policy 5.2.1. Invest in and improve quality of life in existing neighborhoods. Goal 5.4. Encourage design, construction, and maintenance of high quality housing. Policy 5.4.3. Encourage development of well-designed new housing in coordination with population growth employment growth, and transportation goals. C. Urban Area Zoning Ordinance. The main purpose of the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance Yakima Municipal Code (YMC) Title 15 (UAZO) is to implement the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and promote the general health, safety and welfare of the present and future inhabitants of the Yakima Urban Area. YMC § 15.01.030 describes the purpose and intent to promote the purpose of the UAZO. Subsection 15.03.020(6) of the UAZO indicates that the intent of the Single -Family Residential (R-1) zoning district is to: 1. Establish new residential neighborhoods for detached single-family dwellings free from other uses except those which are compatible with, and serve the residents of this district, which may include duplexes and zero lot lines if established during the subdivision process; 2. Preserve existing residential neighborhoods for detached single-family dwellings free from other uses to ensure the preservation of the existing residential character, and serve the residents of this district; and 3. Locate moderate -density residential development, up to seven dwelling units per net residential acre, in areas served by public water and sewer system. Detached single-family dwellings are the primary use in this district. The district is characterized by up to sixty percent lot coverage; access to individual lots by local access streets; required front, rear and side yard setbacks; and one and two-story structures. The density in the district is generally seven dwelling units per net residential acre or less. This zone is intended to afford single-family neighborhoods the highest level of protection from encroachment by potentially incompatible nonresidential land uses or impacts. Nonresidential uses within these zones are not allowed; except for public or quasi -public uses, which will be required to undergo extensive public review and will have all necessary performance or design standards assigned to them as necessary to mitigate potential impacts to adjacent residences. Development exceeding seven dwelling units per net residential acre may be allowed in accordance with Table 4-1. D. Environmental Review. This project (SEPA#004-19) underwent a State Environmental Policy Act review and a Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) was issued on April 25, 2019. No appeals have been files with the City of Yakima. E. Processing. 1. The application for a Preliminary Long Plat was received on February 7, 2019.. 2. A SEPA DNS was issued for this plat on April 25, 2019, no appeals have been filed. 3. The proposed plat is larger than nine lots, and is therefore being processed under the provisions of YMC Ch. 14.20 & 6.88. 4. The applications were deemed complete for processing on March 11, 2019. INDEX 1 3 1 5. Pursuant to RCW Ch. 58.17, YMC § 1.42.030 and YMC § 14.20.100, the City of Yakima Planning Commission (Planning Commission) is authorized to make a recommendation for approval or disapproval, with written findings of fact and conclusions to support the recommendation to the City Council on preliminary plats. Within ten working days of the conclusion of a hearing, unless a longer period is agreed to in writing by the applicant, the Planning Commission shall render a written recommendation which shall include findings and conclusions based on the record. 6. Public Notice: Public notice for this application and hearing was provided in accordance with: YMC Title 14, Subdivision Ordinance; YMC Title 15, Urban Area Zoning Ordinance and YMC Title 16, Development Permit Regulations and include the following actions and dates: a. Date of Application: February 7, 2019 b. Date of Developer's Notice of Complete Application: March 8, 2019 c. Date of Notice of Application: April 1, 2019 d. Date of Posting of Land Use Action Sign on the Property: March 27, 2019 e. Date of Mailing of Notice of DNS: April 25, 2019 f. Notice of Public Hearing April 1, 2019 7. Public Comment: Three written public comments were received during the 20 -day public comment period. The first comment was received from Deborah Johnson at the Washington State Department of Health. The comment states "The application materials do not identify any critical areas (Q. 5.C, prelim. plat supplemental application; Q. B.8.h, SEPA checklist). The entire property lies within a wellhead protection area associated with a Group A public water supply (see below). As such, it is classified as a critical aquifer recharge area, specifically Wellhead Protection Zone 3 (YMC 15.27.820.1.c) & is subject to review under Ch. 15.27 YCC (generally)." Staff Response — The City of Yakima's GIS mapping system does not illustrate this area as a protected zone. However, the applicant has not proposed any of the prohibited uses outline in YMC 15.2 7.820. B, and the proposed single family subdivision will not exceed the performance standards of 15.27.820. C. The City issued a DNS on April 25, 2019 for the subject site, the notification that this area is within a wellhead protection area would not change the outcome of the City issuing a DNS. The applicant will still have to comply will of the development and permitting criteria set forth by the City, and as mentioned above, the application does not exceed the thresholds of YMC § 15.27.820. The second comment was from the Yakima-Tieton Irrigation District and states "Parcel 181332-34002 is within the Yakima-Tieton Irrigation District Boundary and has 12.10 shares of Yakima-Tieton water, so the developer will need to show "Irrigation Approval" on the face of the Plat. The developer will need to follow the Districts Resolution 97-5 regarding property segregation. Staff Response — The City of Yakima requires Irrigation District approval prior to the approval of the final plat. The final comment was receive from Andrew Zuber — concerns in the letter received by the City primarily addressed the high amount traffic at the intersection of 72nd and Washington Avenues. Staff Response — A TCO for the proposed subdivision was submitted to City staff for review. Staff has determined the new subdivision will not generate enough traffic to require the developer to install traffic intersection improvements at 72nd and Washington. The intersection of 72nd and Washington is currently on the six year Transportation Improvement Program. 7.

V. FINDINGS: 1. The subject property is currently vacant. 2. This proposed preliminary plat is approximately 4.96 acres in size and designed for primarily single family residences 3. The Preliminary Long Plat is occurring as a single action and thus the density calculation is based upon a single action of dividing 4.96 acres in to 18 residential lots. 4. The density calculations are listed below: Density for the proposed development as a whole: X = 32 dwelling units / 8.75 acres 4X = 3.65 dwelling units per net residential acre Density with streets factored out calculation Square footage for total lots = -381,150 square feet --> -290,661 square feet / 43,560 square feet per acre 4= 6.67 acres 4= 32 dwelling units / 6.67 acres ->= 4.8 Dwelling Units Per Net Residential Acre DOC. X -fDE • mss' • 5. The preliminarily platted right-of-way of Crestfields Rd., S. 74th Ave, and Vista Ridge Ave. are classified as residential access streets, requiring a total of 50 feet of right-of- way. 6. Full street improvements will be required for the proposed extensions of Crestfields Rd., S. 7411 Ave, and Vista Ridge Ave. A complete 30 -foot half street improvement will be required for South 72nd Ave. 7. Environmental Review was completed for this development, and a DNS was issued on April 25, 2019. 8. URBAN AREA ZONING ORDINANCE UAZO Zoning: The subject property is zoned R-1. A) Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage permitted in the R-1 zoning district is 60% and all lots will comply with that limitation. B) Lot Size: The preliminary plat indicates lot sizes that range from 8,300 to 10,200 square feet. Table 5-2 of Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO provides that the minimum lot size for single family construction is 6,000 square feet. C) Lot Width: Table 5-2 of Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO prescribes a minimum lot width of 50 feet for detached single family dwelling units. All proposed lots meet or exceed the minimum requirement. D) Density: With a density of about 3.65 dwelling units per net residential acre (4.8 dw/nra with streets calculated out), the proposed preliminary plat complies with YMC § 15.05.030(B) and Table 4-1 of Chapter 15.04 of the UAZO which prescribe a maximum of seven (7) dwelling units per net residential acre in the R-1 zone. 9. SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: As proposed, and with the recommended conditions, this preliminary plat meets all the design requirements of YMC Ch. 14.30 of the City's subdivision ordinance and the development standards of YMC Title 12. The recommended conditions are intended to ensure consistency with the provisions of the City's subdivision ordinance and that appropriate provisions are provided for the following: 1. The proposed subdivision must be consistent with the provisions of the urban area zoning ordinance; 2. The proposed subdivision must be consistent with the city of Yakima's comprehensive plan; 3. The proposed subdivision must be consistent with the provisions of this title; 4. As required by RCW Chapter 58.17, the proposed subdivision must make appropriate provisions for: A) Public health, safety, welfare: The construction of new single-family dwellings will complement adjacent uses will promote the public health, safety and general welfare insofar as there is a need in this community for additional housing and insofar as this proposed preliminary plat would be required to comply with all applicable City SOC. INDEX 9 development standards, and all conditions of approval specified by the City of Yakima Planning Commission. B) Open spaces: The proposed lots are larger than minimum sizes required in the R-1 zoning district. Lot coverage of 60% or less in the R-1 zoning district will provide adequate light and air for future residents in accordance with the standards in the zoning ordinance without additional open spaces. C) Drainage systems: Drainage system facilities will be provided in accordance with state and local regulations including the City of Yakima Municipal Code and the eastern Washington Storm Water Manual. D) Streets, alleys, and other public ways: The subject property has frontage upon South 72nd Ave., designated as a Minor Arterial street which requires 60 -feet of right-of- way. In accordance with YMC Title 12 development standards, the developer is to dedicate and construct the 30 -foot right-of-way portion of South 72nd Ave. abutting the subject property in accordance with the City's development standards. The subject property also has frontage upon Crestfields Rd., S. 74th Ave, and Vista Ridge Ave., which are designated as a Residential Access streets, requiring a total of 50 feet of right- of-way. E) Transit Stops: Transit Routes Number 3 and 5 have stops along Washington Ave., Approximately 1,500 feet to the north of the site. F) Water supplies: Public water is required to be used for domestic and fire flow purposes. An adequate water supply for this development is available from Nob Hill Water Company. G) Sanitary waste disposal: Public sewer is required to service all lots. A City of Yakima sewer main lies within Vista Ridge Ave.., east of the proposed development, and is capable of being extended to handle the demands of this development. H, 1) Parks and playgrounds: The nearest park is located 1.45 miles to the northwest of the proposed preliminary plat. The proposed preliminary plat is not located in a planned parks and recreation area. Provisions for parks and recreation areas are not necessary within the proposed preliminary plat due to the size, number and location of the proposed lots and provisions for playgrounds exist at the schools which children within the proposed preliminary plat would be attending, and could also be individually provided on the lots themselves which are of a size which would allow for playground areas as needed or desired. J) Sites for schools: West Valley Middle and Jr. High Schools are located approximately within one mile to the north of the proposed preliminary plat. No comments were received from the School District suggesting the need for an additional school at this location. K) Sidewalks: Sidewalks are required and will be provided along this developments frontage. L) Other planning Features that Assure Safe Walking Conditions for Students Who INDEX , 10 1 Walk to and From School: Sidewalks will be installed along the frontages of Coolidge Rd., tying into existing neighboring subdivisions. As part of the subject project, S 72nd Ave. will be partially built out. This street will eventually serve as a north to south street for residential traffic in the area, alleviating traffic from Coolidge Rd. 5. Based upon standards in subsections (A)(1) through (A)(4) of this section, a finding that the public use and interest will be served by the approval of this subdivision: This proposed 32 -lot residential subdivision is consistent with neighboring land uses and better serves the needs of the City of Yakima than the undeveloped status of the property. 10. TRANSPORTATION CONCURRENCY: This application was reviewed and approved for consistency with YMC 12.08 Transportation Capacity Management Ordinance on March 27, 2019. The proposed development will not exceed the PM peak hour capacity of the City Arterial street system and reserve capacity exists on all impacted streets. This review does not include any site development or safety issues which may be discussed at the project level or SEPA review. The review does not address intersection level of service. 11.

A Detailed Plat Plan Is Required: On August 8, 1996, the City Council passed a resolution (No. R-96-91) adopting a requirement that all site plans submitted in conjunction with any building permit application, land use application, and environmental application shall contain certain information and be approved by the appropriate Division Manager. All information that is applicable to your proposal shall be checked off and clearly displayed on the plat plan. It is in the applicant's best interest to provide a carefully drawn and scaled plat plan with all required information. The decision on whether or not to grant approval of your development proposal is largely based on the information you provide. An application cannot be processed until an adequate plat plan is submitted. Please complete this checklist and include it with your plat plan. The plat plan must contain all pertinent information. Items not applicable to the proposed project shall be noted. 1) Use Ink: Use blue or black permanent ink. It may be helpful to draft the plat plan in pencil then trace over in ink. Ink is necessary for adequate duplication. 2) Use A Straight Edge: All lines must be straight and done with the aid of a ruler or other straight edge. Use a compass when delineating circular drawings such as cul-de-sacs. Computer drafted plat plans are acceptable and preferred. 3) Draw To Scale: Plat plans shall be drawn to scale. The plat plan template has a suggested map scale of one inch equaling twenty feet (1"=20'). Distances on the map must be as representative of reality as possible. For example, if the distance from a structure to a property line is 20 feet, the distance on the plat plan will be 1 inch. 4) Use Plat Plan Checklist: Use the plat plan checklist and provide all applicable information on the plat plan. 5) Fill In The Following Information On A Plat Plan: Note: You may benefit from the aid of a professional in the preparation of a plat plan.

Page 116 KH PROPERTIES LLC — "VISTA RIDGE PHASE 2" PLP#001-19 & SEPA#004-19 EXHIBIT LIST CHAPTER G Public Comments Joan Davenport, AICP, Director of Community Development City of Yakima, Dept. of Community Development 129 N 2nd St Yakima, WA 98901 April 7th, 2019 RE: PLP#001-19 & SEPA #004-19, KH Properties, Vista Ridge Development I am writing to express concern regarding the above development. My concern is not with the development itself necessarily, but with the increased traffic as a result of the development at the intersection of S 72nd Ave and W Washington Ave. This new development, along with the continued developments further out Coolidge are increasing the traffic flow through this already poorly managed intersection. Concerns have previously been raised with the city engineers, the traffic division, public works, and city council. Everyone has a different excuse as to why nothing has been or is being done. The intersection of 72nd/Washington is already a busy dangerous intersection with poor traffic control. I realize this is not a large development that is proposed, but at this point any increase in traffic will make an already bad intersection even worse. Safety should be a priority of everyone involved. There are school bus stops within a couple hundred feet of this intersection on multiple sides. School kids and others are walking the sidewalks of this intersection trying to cross busy streets with confused drivers. There is heavy traffic flow through this intersection before and after school, and during the typical commute hours, creating long queues and impatient drivers — especially in the turn lanes and for eastbound traffic. With no stoplight, only stop signs for east/west traffic, there is a lot of risk for motoring and pedestrian traffic. Visibility is very poor for westbound traffic, causing most drivers to pull out past the crosswalk to see oncoming traffic. Countless near misses and multiple collisions have occurred here over the last several years. There has not been a traffic count or study conducted since the addition of multiple developments in the area and the extension of Coolidge Rd off of 80th Avenue several years ago. The increase in traffic is quite significant since the last study was completed. With the addition of this development, and what I am sure will be several more along Coolidge, the time is now for the developers and city to install a stop light at this intersection. For these reasons I am strongly opposed to this development unless the city and developer agree to the installation of a stop light at the intersection of 72nd and Washington.

Background On March 12, 2019, the City Council held a study session where it was moved and seconded to send the following items to the Planning Commission for further review and discussion: a. Review options for zoning of additional land for multi -family construction b. Analyze the Zoning Ordinance (YMC 15) & Subdivision Ordinance (YMC 14) for regulatory strategies c. Analyze the R-1 Zoning District to determine if more density should be allowed in the R-1 zone d. Review techniques used in other cities, especially in the state of Washington, to encourage new housing of all types e. Review the concept of Inclusionary Housing Ordinances that require set -asides for affordable housing or payment into a fund for affordable housing. Seattle and Portland have similar ordinances with mixed results f. Review short term rental zoning and licensing regulations (AirBNB or VRBO) 2. Short Term Rentals Short Term Rental (STR) uses are typically secured through an online platform such as AirBNB and VRBO for a room or rooms in a residential setting, similar to a Bed and Breakfast. However, some short term rentals are for an entire home which effectively removes that residence from the local market. Currently, when customers inquire about doing this type of business, there are directed to go through a review for Home Occupation — Bed and Breakfast: 15.02.020 Definitions. "Bed and breakfast" means a residential structure providing individuals with lodging and meals for not more than thirty days. For home occupations, such uses are limited to having not more than five lodging units or guest rooms. Table 4-1. Permitted Land Uses Table 4-2.

Meals shall only be served to guests, even if required to be licensed as a restaurant under state regulations, except as otherwise permitted in this title. C. The number of guest rooms shall not be increased through any exterior modifications or additions to the home occupation bed and breakfast. D. The front yard area shall not be used for off-street parking for bed and breakfast guests unless the parking area is screened and found to be compatible with the neighborhood or unless waived by the reviewing official. E. One nonilluminated or externally illuminated sign not exceeding the maximum size allowed within the applicable zoning district, and bearing only the name of the inn and/or operator, shall be permitted. F. The administrative official may authorize use of the bed and breakfast inn for receptions, group meetings and special gatherings based upon the size of the inn, availability of adequate off-street parking spaces, public health considerations, and compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood.

I,S�., s The City Council adopted regulations for short-term rentals (STRs), a booked stay of 29 consecutive nights or fewer, on November 5, 2018 (Ord 2018-11-024). These program goals guided the development of the STR regulations: 1) balance the economic opportunity created by STRs with the need to maintain the City's housing supply and 2) protect the rights and safety of owners, guests and neighbors. I�1..��h.i.t:i � ei�i . al i o `(C�tii�i.i As of February 9, 2019, the number of unique STR units in the City of Bellingham was 308, most of which were operating illegally. The new STR regulations allow for many of these units to become legal with the proper permit. Please talk with City Staff in the Permit Center (City Hall - 210 Lottie St., 360-778-8300) to obtain guidance on your proposal prior to submitting an application for an STR permit. If the application is a Type i STIR, a courtesynotice must be mailed or delivered to residents and property owners adjacent to the STIR prior to submittal of the application. See the application for a sample courtesy notice and additional information. • STR Application (also available on the City's Land Use Application webpage). An application fee and business license number for your STR are required to be submitted with the application. Fee structure is as follows: • Type 1: $370.00 • Type II: $550.00 • Type III -A: $847.00 • Renewal before January 1 of every even -numbered year): $250.00 o STR Renewal Affidavit �I,ti'm9Iat;tId YI;Idet YLL: The regulations help to further the goal of retaining the City's housing supply for owners and long-term renters by limiting the number of STRs an operator may have in residential zones to one. Also, in residential zones, the dwelling unit, including accessory dwelling units, hosting the STR must serve as the primary residence of the owner or long-term renter (with at least a 270 -day lease) for at least 270 days/year and the whole unit may be rented no more than 95 days/year. In single-family zones, STRs are not permitted in detached accessory dwelling units. In commercial and urban village zones, the primary residency requirement does not apply, and there is no limit on the number of STRs a host may operate.

Uses where tenancy may be arranged for a shorter period are not considered residential. They are considered to be a form of transient lodging (see the Retail Sales and Service and Community Service categories). Apartment complexes that have accessory services such as food service, dining rooms, and housekeeping are included as Residential Household Living. Single room occupancy housing (SROs) that does not have totally self-contained dwelling units is also included if at least two thirds of the units are rented on a monthly basis. SROs may have a common food preparation area, but meals are prepared individually by the residents. Residential structures occupied by persons with disabilities requiring reasonable accommodations pursuant to the federal or state law are included in the Residential Household Living category. B. Accessory Uses. Accessory uses commonly found are recreational activities, raising of pets, hobbies, and parking of the occupants' vehicles. Home occupations, accessory dwelling units, short-term rentals, and bed and breakfast facilities are accessory uses that are subject to additional development standards of the zoning code. C. Examples. Uses include single-family residences, duplexes, apartments, condominiums, retirement center apartments, manufactured housing and other structures with self-contained dwelling units. Examples also include living in SROs if the provisions are met regarding length of stay and separate meal preparation. D. Exceptions. 1. Lodging in a dwelling unit or SRO where less than two-thirds of the units are rented on a monthly basis is considered a hotel or motel use and is classified in the Retail Sales and Service category. 2. SROs that contain programs that include common dining are classified as Group Living. 3. Guest houses that contain kitchen facilities are prohibited as accessory to Residential Household Living uses. 4. In certain situations, lodging where tenancy may be arranged for periods less than one month may be classified as a Community Service use, such as short-term housing or mass shelter. Section 4.

The Commission further finds that the proposed an'rendments seek to achieve the fallowing STR program goals: 1. Balance the economic opporkillity created by short -terra rentals with the need to maintain the City's housing SUJ)ply dr)d 2, Protect the rights and safety of owners, guests and neighhors, I. FINMNGS OF FACT 1. Proposal Description: The subject proposal includes the City's first regUlations pertaining to short -terra rentals (SI -Rs) offered thrOLIgh websites sud-i as Airbnb and VRBO. An S'f"R is a lodging Use, other than a hotel or motel, in which a dwelling unit or portion thereof is provide(] to guests by a short-term rental operator for a fee for fewer than 30 consecutive nights, On February 9, Host Compliance, a company that monitors short -terra rental listings for communities, identified 214 unique rental listings in Rellinghan), The modian nightly rata for all listings, the majority of which were whole houses, was $95. To date, the City hasn't estaMshed "vacation rental" or "short-term rental" as a defined term in the BMC. W&IOLlt regulation, this practice could continue to rapidly expand, impacting the City's long-term housing stock and qUality of life. On the other hand, STR hans have beer) found to be ineffective and car) deprive the community of possible benefits, including expansion of the tourism economy. The Planning Commission's recommeridation includes a tiered approa0i of three permit types for STRs, in Residential General Use Type areas and requires a conditional use permit for STRs that are rented for more than 90 days per year. An operator may be a principal, spouse or° registered domestic partner of a principal in no more than two total STIR permits - one in a primary residence and one in a non -primary residence; howover, only one of those can be a Type 111-A STR, Standards, including those related to noise and safety, apply to all STRs. The permit structure for STRs in residential areas is SlUrnmarized as follows: Type i permit: * Primary residence * Maximurn of 2 bedrooms c, Maximum of 90 rental days/yew Type 11 permit: * Dwelling unit (primary residence or non -primary residence) * Maximum of 5 bedrooms * Maximum of 90 rental days/year Type Ill -A permit: • Dwelling unit (primary residence or non -primary residence), • Maximum of 5 bedrooms o No limit on rental days/year • No more than 125 Type 111-A STR permits will be issued in Single-family Residential Single General Use Type, areas Regarding Commercial and Urban Village General Use Type areas, a Type I permit would be required for each of the three STR types. Several standards, including those related to operator permit maximums, Type 111-A permit maximums, multi -family building maximums, and parking would not apply to STRs in these zones, As hotels, motels, and bed and breakfast facilities are currently permitted with limited standards in most commercial and urban village areas, requiring a Type I STR permit with a basic set of standards is in line with current requirements, 2.

ADOPTED this 22nd day of March,208. Secretary City Attorney Z I ORDINANCE NO. 1542 CITY OF LEAVENWORTH, WASHINGTON AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF LEAVENWORTH, WASHINGTON ADOPTING AMENDMENTS TO THE LEAVENWORTH MUNICIPAL CODE TO SECTION 18.52.120 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT — BED AND BREAKFAST. WHEREAS, the Leavenworth City Council desires to amend the Leavenworth Municipal Code to clarify and update the Bed and Breakfast (short-term / vacation / overnight rentals in residential neighborhoods) regulations, criteria, and standards within LMC Chapter 18.52 (specifically Section 18.52.120) as a part of the Planning Commission 2016 Amendment Docket; and WHEREAS, in accordance with the Leavenworth Municipal Code (LMC), early in January of each year, the City Council and Planning Commission sponsor a joint public workshop during which a list of city -initiated proposals are formalized, based primarily on the items docketed throughout the previous year. In January 2016, the Leavenworth City Council accepted the 2015 Planning Commission Docket and tasked the Planning Commission to proceed with the amendment process. The Docket included identified potential comprehensive plan amendments, substantive zoning / development code updates, and other LMC amendments; and WHEREAS, within the Planning Commission 2016 Amendment Docket, the Planning Commission has been asked to review and study "1. LMC - Residential uses review and update. A. Review and study Overnight / Vacation Rentals in the residential neighborhoods. Vacation / overnight rentals are not allowed in residential districts except by CUP. The "black market / underground" conversions exist, and the Council desires to address this topic."; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the amendment on February 3, 2016, March 2, 2016, April 6, 2016, May 4, 2016, July 6, 2016, August 3, 2016, September 7, 2016, October 5, 2016, and October 19, 2016; and WHEREAS, on October 28, 2016, the City of Leavenworth submitted the draft amendment to State agencies for review pursuant the requirements of RCW 36.70A.106; and WHEREAS, the agency review began on October 28, 2016 and ended on December 28, 2016; and WHEREAS, on November 2, 2016, a "Notice of Public Hearing" for the hearing on the amendment was published in the Leavenworth Echo and posted in three locations in City Hall; and WHEREAS, pursuant to RCW 43.21C and WAC 197-11, the City issued a "Determination of Non -significance" (DNS) on October 21, 2016; and WHEREAS, a staff report was prepared and given to the Planning Commission on October 20, 2016; and 1 WHEREAS, on November 2, 2016, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to receive public testimony on the amendment and voted unanimously to recommend adoption of the amendment to the City Council; and WHEREAS, on January 10, 2017 the City Council conducted a Study Session to consider the recommendations from the Planning Commission; and WHEREAS, on January 24, 2017, the City Council held an open public meeting to consider the recommendations from the Planning Commission and this Ordinance. WHEREAS, this amendment is necessary to clarify and strengthen the current code language for ease of understanding and for ease of enforcement; and WHEREAS, according to the Leavenworth Municipal Code purpose statement for residential districts Section 18.20.010, this is a restricted residential district of low density in which the principal use of land is for single-family dwellings, together with recreational, religious, and educational facilities required to serve the community. The regulations for this district are designed and intended to establish, maintain and protect the essential characteristics of the district, to develop and sustain a suitable environment for family life where children are members of most families, and to prohibit all activities of a commercial nature and those which would tend to be inharmonious with or injurious to the preservation of a residential environment. The "commercial nature" in this instance is residences functioning similar to hotels or other lodging establishments; and WHEREAS, the amendment is consistent with the City of Leavenworth Comprehensive Plan. Specifically: Housing Element Goal 1: Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population, promote a variety of residential densities, and housing types, and encourage preservation of existing housing stock. Encourage a more efficient use of existing housing inventories in order to assist in providing affordable housing is necessary. The low and moderate -income segments of the population need additional help in acquiring affordable housing. Reducing such stock is contrary to the housing goals. The intent of the GMA is to encourage population growth in urban areas, reduce urban sprawl and thereby lessen the burden on counties to provide urban type infrastructure and services to large population centers. Policy 9: Evaluate existing land use designations and regulations which may be presenting barriers to the development of an adequate supply of affordable housing for all economic segments of the population. Policy 10: Reassess and amend as necessary the locations, densities and ratio of distribution of the residential land use designations to more proactively promote the 2 development of affordable housing within the City and the UGA. Land Use Element — General - Goal 8: Maintain development regulations to promote compatibility between uses; retain desired neighborhood character; ensure adequate light, air and open space; protect and improve environmental quality; and manage potential impacts on public facilities and services. Through these regulations address features including, but not limited to: impervious surface area and lot coverage; building height, bulk, placement and separation; development intensity; access and connections; and landscaping/ open space. Zoning ordinances are a valid exercise of the police power of the City, and provide for the public health, safety, morals, or general welfare of a community. Residential - Goal 2: Provide for a variety of residential opportunities that meet the needs of a full range of lifestyles and income levels. Designate allowed residential densities and housing types to provide for a housing stock that includes a range of choices to meet all economic segments and household types, including those with special needs related to age, health or disability. Goal3:Allow some compatible nonresidential uses in Residential zones, such as appropriately scaled schools, religious facilities, home occupations, parks, open spaces, senior centers and day care centers. Maintain standards in the Leavenworth Municipal Code for locating and designing these uses in a manner that respects the character and scale of the neighborhood. Many residents treasure their neighborhoods. Each neighborhood has characteristics that are unique and make it special. There are also qualities that are valued, including safety, quiet enjoyment, friendliness, and attractiveness. Goal 6: Promote attractive, friendly, safe, quiet and diverse residential neighborhoods throughout the city, including low- and moderate -density single-family to high-density residential neighborhoods. The supply of long-term community based residential housing would be reduced without the amendment and/or allowance of short-term rentals in residential zones. Such is contrary and inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan; and WHEREAS, the amendment is consistent in addressing state mandates to review and update the Comprehensive Plan (RCW 36.70A.130) and development regulations. The update of the criteria and standards are a part of the development regulation review process per the RCW. This update has been developed in accordance and compliance with RCW 36.70A.130 (WAC 365-196-610 and RCW 36.70A.130) which states "On or before June 30, 2017, and every eight years thereafter, for Benton, Chelan, Cowlitz, Douglas, Kittitas, Lewis, Skamania, Spokane, and Yakima counties and the cities within those counties" shall update their respective Comprehensive Plans and development regulations; and WHEREAS, the amendment does not alter population, employment, land use, housing, 3 transportation, capital facilities, economic conditions, etc., contained in the comprehensive plan; and WHEREAS, the amendment strikes a necessary balance between the benefits and burdens associated with short-term rentals in residential zones; and WHEREAS, the record shows that short-term rentals in residential zones can increase the cost of housing. Other communities have experienced a contraction in the availability of homes for long-term rental due to the greater profit available from short-term rental. With fewer available long-term rentals, the cost of long-term rentals increases. In addition, the profitability of short-term rentals increases the demand for potential rental properties, increasing the cost of buying a home; and WHEREAS, the supply of long-term community based residential housing would be reduced without the amendment and/or allowance of short-term rentals in residential zones. Unrestricted short-term rentals in residential zones is contrary and inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan; and WHEREAS, the record shows that short-term rentals in residential zones can have a negative effect on residents and neighborhoods. Many residents testified about noise and parking problems from short-term rentals. Residents also testified about loss of community when neighbors are a stream of transient guests rather than a member of the community. Among specific concerns raised was the safety of children when the neighbors are transient guests who no one knows; and WHEREAS, the high cost of housing in the City is well documented. The record shows that short-term rentals have the potential to exacerbate that problem, but they can also provide a means for some property owners to afford to buy or rent a home in the City. Renting out a room as a short-term rental can provide additional, needed income to pay a mortgage or rent; and WHEREAS, the amendment is consistent with Planning goals of RCW 36.70A.020: (4) Housing. Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population of this state, promote a variety of residential densities and housing types, and encourage preservation of existing housing stock; and WHEREAS, the amendment has been developed in accordance with the Growth Management Act (see above) and do not conflict with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The amendment process followed for this adoption process is compliant with specific Leavenworth Municipal Code and State regulatory requirements for notification and circulation; and WHEREAS, there has been tremendous growth in the number and usage of online platforms (such as Airbnb, HomeAway, VRBO, etc.) that make it easy to offer and easy to find homes or rooms for short-term rental; and WHEREAS, the City has allowed short-term rentals in residential zones with a conditional use permit. These conditionally permitted uses were classified as "bed and breakfast" uses and required the property owner to live on the property and to be present when short-term M rental guests were present; and WHEREAS, the City received comments to relax the restrictions on short-term rentals in residential zones. The City Council and Planning Commission considered testimony of numerous individuals and groups and reviewed and considered a large amount of written material, including individual opinions, economic studies and reports, news articles, professional journal articles, and other documents; and WHEREAS, the record shows that short-term rentals can provide greater income to property owners than long-term rentals. Because short-term rentals are subject to lodging taxes, and long-term rentals are not, short-term rentals can also provide revenue for the City; and WHEREAS, although one study determined that HomeAway properties had no impact on the sales price of homes in Seattle. It is not clear if the same factors that apply to Seattle apply in the City of Leavenworth. There are significant differences in overall size of the residential areas and in the distribution of housing stock within the different areas; and WHEREAS, the record shows that the transient lodging and short-term rentals are typically defined as stays of 30 days or less. The International Building Code mandates additional safety features in buildings used for stays of 30 days or less. For health and safety reasons, it is appropriate that the City follow the 30 -day timeframe adopted in the International Building Code; and WHEREAS, the existing code language related to bed and breakfast uses may be subject to confusion and may be inconsistent. Amendments are necessary to clarify and strengthen the current code language for ease of understanding and for ease of enforcement; and WHEREAS, short-term rentals can provide significant private benefits in the form of rental profits and, in some cases, financial assistance with buying or renting a home. However, these private benefits come with public costs borne by the entire community in the form of increased housing costs, noise and parking conflicts, and the loss of community that results when residences are occupied by a series of transients rather than by long-term neighbors. Requiring the property owner, or their representative, to be present on the property when short-term rental guests are visiting will mitigate some of the public costs; and WHEREAS, the Council recognizes that this national trend and growth in short-term rentals will likely continue. There may be industry innovation and the development of new regulatory strategies to minimize community impacts. Therefore, it is imperative that the City monitors the evolution of short-term rental issues, including successes and failures in other jurisdictions; and WHEREAS, the amendment will not modify the supply of land. The proposed amendment does not modify the urban growth boundary in any way. As such, no adverse effect to land supply is expected; and WHEREAS, the amendment does not negatively impact public facilities, utilities and infrastructure, including transportation systems, and any adopted levels of service; and E WHEREAS, the amendment does not adversely affect lands designated resource lands of long term commercial significance or critical areas. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LEAVENWORTH, WASHINGTON, DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The amendment to clarify and update the Bed and Breakfast (short-term / vacation / overnight rentals in residential neighborhoods) regulations, criteria, and standards within LMC Chapter 18.52 is hereby amended to read as set out in Attachment A.
