The Plat of Wellington Estates received preliminary plat approval from Yakima County on November 28, 2006, and consequently is vested under Yakima County's development regulations. Most notable of the changes from current City standards are that sidewalks are provided only on one side of the street. Wellington Drive, the main access road to the plat, has been constructed with sidewalks on both sides of the street. Phase 1, consisting of 45 lots, was recorded prior to the annexation of this area, which occurred on April 8, 2007 (Occidental Annexation). Phase 1 is fully developed. Phases 2 and 3 are currently undeveloped. The City Engineer's office has reviewed and approved all necessary designs and engineering, and indicates that the required improvements are installed and inspected, or that the required financial agreement is in place to secure their installation. The City Chief Engineer has signed the plat in affirmation of this fact. The Planning Division has similarly reviewed the final plat and finds it to •be in substantial conformance with the terms and conditions of the preliminary plat approval as required by Yakima County. Staff therefore recommends acceptance of the final plat and the adoption of the Resolution that authorizes the Mayor to sign the final plat.

The subdivision would create 168 new Tots developed in four phases. Access would be provided from West Washington Avenue east of South 64th Avenue. The Hearing Examiner visited the site on March 29, 2006. County Planning staff provided a staff report and exhibit package prior to the March 30, 2006 open record hearing date. The applicant was represented at the hearing by Bill Hordan of Hordan Planning Services. City of Yakima planning official Bruce Benson noted that action on an annexation petition for the property was being forestalled while the subject application was being processed. The City urged that approval of the preliminary plat be conditioned on meeting development regulations in Title 12 of the Yakima Municipal Code because of the likelihood that the bulk of the property would be annexed. The Ahtanum Irrigation District asserts jurisdiction over the surface water feature on the property, which is also referred to as a drainage improvement ditch. Public comment raised issues regarding the impacts of urban density residential development, increased traffic, declines in property values from adjacent development of small lots, and increased crime rates. Concerns were also expressed about the impacts to surface waters frons the rerouting or piping of the drainage improvement ditch. Neighbors requested the construction of privacy fencing around the proposed subdivision. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATION. This long subdivision should be approved with conditions. The conditions include the mitigation requirements in the Mitigated Determination of EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION -1 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES sun 05-077 DOC. INDEX # C— • Nonsignificance (MDNS) issued by Yakima County for the preliminary plat. The conditions relate to stormwater management system design and planning, drainage improvement ditch relocation requirements, traffic delay analysis, additional access road requirements, and integration of the proposed interior roads with the present and future transportation grid in the area. From the view of the site, the matters contained in the official record including the Staff Report, a review of both the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and the Yakima County Subdivision and Urban Area Zoning Ordinances, and from evidence received at the hearing, the Examiner makes the following: FINDINGS 1. Applicant. Cottonwood Partners, LLC. 2. Owners and parcel numbers. According to on-line Yakima County Assessor information, the following are the owners of property: Ron Eichler, Parcel Nos. 181333-31001,- 31008,-42010; Andrew Hess, Parcel Nos. 181333-31010; Andrew and Marion Hess, Parcel Nos. 181333-31009, -34002. Other personssigning the applications as consenting owners include: Martha Ruth Hess, Parcel Nos. 181333731009, -31010,-34002; Susan Reis, Parcel Nos. 181333- 31001,-31008,-42010; Lexie Hess, Parcel Nos. 181333-31009,-34002; Christine Frank, Parcel Nos. 181333-31001,-31008,-42010; and Mary Dawson, Parcel Nos. 181333-31001,-31008,- 42010. 3. Location. The project site is located on the south side of West Washington Avenue, approximately 1,300 feet east of the intersection of South 64`h Avenue and West Washington Avenue. The northern boundaries of the project site abut the Yakima city limits. 4. Application. Preliminary plat review for a long subdivision. 5. Legal Description. The legal description of the subject parcel is set forth in Hearing Exhibit 2, Page 32, Preliminary Plat of Wellington Estates, dated September 30, 2005. 6. Land Use and Zoning. The project site contains one single-family dwelling and a few accessory buildings, all of which are proposed to be demolished. The remaining project property is vacant. The existing uses of properties immediately north of the site are agricultural and residential on lots ranging from EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 2 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES SUB 05-077 DOC, INDEX # C,i approximately 1.8 to 38 acres in size. Neighboring properties to the east are primarily residential on lots averaging 2 to 4 acres in size. To the west are agricultural uses on Tots from 4 to 22 acres in size and the properties to the south are dominated by residential uses on 1.5 to 4 acre lots. The project site is within the Yakima Urban Area and is therefore subject to the provisions of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan (UACP), YCC Title 15A, and the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance (UAZO). The property and surrounding area is designated as Low Density Residential under the UACP. Low Density Residential is primarily single-family, detached residences. Net residential density before considering roads and right-of-ways is less than 7 dwelling units per acre, which is considered the lowest residential density to efficiently support public services. The Low Density Residential comprehensive plan designation is implemented by the UAZO, which puts the subject property in the Suburban Residential (SR) zone. The intent of the SR zone is to provide a variety of residential lifestyles with densities generally ranging from 2 units per net residential acre to 7 units per net residential acre. The higher densities are permitted when public water and public sewer systems are used. 7. Property Characteristics. The proposal consists of five lots. The property has been in agricultural use but is currently not in active use. The site is relatively flat with a slope of approximately 0 to 2%. There are no designated critical areas on or immediately adjacent to the property but the property is located within a flood -prone area that may be subject to high seasonal groundwater levels. A drainage improvement ditch and irrigation water conveyance traverses the western portion of the property from the northwest to the southeast. A weir box is located on the south central portion of the property, the outflow of which fills ponds on the neighboring property to the south. The water is reported to flow in the ditch on a year around basis. A Nob Hill Water Association main water supply line is located along Washington Avenue. Regional Waste Water Treatment collection lines are also present in the area. Other utilities are also generally available in the vicinity. No irrigation water is available from the Ahtanum Irrigation District. 8. Proposed Subdivision. The proposal is to develop a four phase subdivision of seven existing parcels of land having a total of approximately 42 acres into 168 residential lots ranging in size from 7,198 to 9,473 square feet. Phase 1 consists of 45 new lots, Phase II consists of 45 new lots, EXAMINERS RECOMMENDATION - 3 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES SUB 05-077 DOC. INDEX • • • Phase III consists of 34 new lots, and Phase IV will consist of 44 new lots. Construction of Phase I is scheduled to continence upon, or shortly after, preliminary plat approval. Construction of Phases 11 through IV will commence upon completion of each successive phase. All 168 new lots are intended for future single-family residences to be served by proposed new access streets and extended existing utilities, including public water and sewer. 9. Environmental Review. Environmental review for the project was conducted in accordance with Chapter 43.21C RCW (State Environmental Policy Act), and Title 16 YCC. Atter a review of the preliminary plat, the Environmental Checklist, and other application information, the SEPA Responsible Official identified impacts to ground water, surface water, and transportation and issued a preliminary MDNS on January 26, 2006. Following a continent period, a final MDNS was issued on February 15, 2006 and published on February 18, 2006. No appeals of the MDNS were filed. 10. Notice. A Notice of Open Record Public Hearing was mailed to all parties of record and published on February 15, 2006 by the Yakima County Planning Division. The public hearing notification was posted on the subject property on March 14, 2006. An invitation to comment on the proposal was included in the notice. 11. Analysis 11.1 Subdivision Requirements. YCC Chapter 14 enumerates numerous design criteria and standards applicable to the division of land. The Hearing Examiner's recommendation is to be based on consideration of whether a) the proposed subdivision makes appropriate provisions for public health, safety and general welfare and for drainage ways, streets, other public ways, water supplies, and sanitary waste; and b} the public use and interest will be served by the platting of the subdivision. YCC 14.20.050. The Hearing Examiner must also detemnine if a proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable development regulations. YCC 16B.06.010. The subdivision must conform to zoning and subdivision ordinances. County Planning staff have developed a set of customary conditions designed to assure compliance of plats with generally applicable development regulations. Those conditions EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 4 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF W ELLINCTON ESTATES sua 05-077 DOC. INDEX # CSI should be included in any approval of the proposed preliminary plat. 11.2 Subdivision Analysis. The Planning Division staffhas analyzed the compliance of the proposed subdivision with the zoning district regulations and the design standards in the subdivision ordinance. The analysis addresses (1) zoning district design standards, (2) service system requirements for water supply, irrigation, sewer and stormwater management, (3) road design, (4) fire protection, (5) parks and recreation, and (6) utilities. The applicant has generally raised no objections to the Planning staff analysis or proposed conditions. Except as may be set out in detail below, the Hearing Examiner adopts the analysis of compliance with the standards contained in the staff report. a. Zoning district design standards. Section 15A.05.030(b) of the UAZO provides that the "Maximum Number of Dwelling Units Permitted per Net Residential Acre" within a single subdivision and other types of residential developments allow no more than 7.0 units per net residential acre. The specific minimum residential lot sizes are dependant on the applicable zoning designation and various situations. Within the SR zone, the minimum lot size for a situation where a public or community water system and the regional or an approved community sewer system is available is specifically set at a minimum 7,000 square feet per lot under Table 5-2 of the UAZO. The proposed minimum lot size of 7,198 square feet complies with the 7,000 square foot minimum requirement for individual lots. Calculations based on information and dimensions shown on the preliminary plat indicate an overall density of 5.5 units per acre which is compliant with the maximum density of 7 units per acre. The proposed lots are of adequate area and dimensionally configured in such a manner that would not prohibit commonly sized residential dwellings from meeting setback requirements or exceed the maximum lot coverage allowance. The preliminary plat indicates all lots have more than 60 feet of width and have, or are capable of having, at least 20 feet of lot frontage on a public road or being served by a 20 foot access easement. As proposed, the development is compliant with required lot dimensions. Pursuant to Chapter 15A.07, Table 7-1 of the UAZO, sitescreening is not required for this proposal. Public Comment on the SR design standards: Some commenters indicated concern that the sizes of the proposed lots would result in residential density that is inconsistent with the density of the surrounding residential uses. Sone public comment sought the establishment of some sort of buffer or EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 5 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES sun 05-077 DOC. INDEX # C-/ • • mandatory fencing between the Wellington Estates lots and other adjacent properties. Some residents noted that the development would change the private character of the neighborhood. The preliminary plat review requirements are intended to assure that the subdivision complies with the regulatory standards applicable to the zoning district. In this case, the district is SR, and there is no evidence that the proposed subdivision violates the SR design standards. Additional conditions could he imposed with respect to density or sitescreening ifthere was evidence that the proposal imperiled the public interest. For example, if there was insufficient water supply to support the proposed number of lots, the number of lots could then be restricted. Similarly, if the development impaired some neighborhood resource in a way not contemplated by the planning or zoning designation of the property, some barrier wall requirement !night be imposed. However, no evidence of such circumstances has been presented by public comment. The neighbors may be unsatisfied with the planning or zoning designation, but that dissatisfaction does not, in itself, instill authority to impose the conditions the neighbors have requested in contravention of the legislatively established zoning standards. b. Water. As proposed; the development will be served by the Nob Hill Water System. Final plat approval may be appropriately conditioned on a demonstration of water availability in an amount sufficient to support the proposed density. The applicant asserts that domestic and irrigation water is available for the Nob Hill water; system. Public comment on Water: The, primary public concerns regarding water were related to the impacts of changes to water conveyances and management devices that were necessary to neighboring uses and amenities. MDNS conditions already require that changes to the Hugh Bowman Ditch or DID #41 ditch must not interfere with the functionality of the ditch or turnouts. The preservation of functions and non-iinpairment of lawful uses of water is necessary in the public interest as well. The applicant has suggested that the weir box should be moved off the subject property and on to neighboring property to allow the neighbors using the conveyed water to control deliveries without interference from any new owners of the subject property. The applicant and neighbors are free to_come to whatever accommodation they may reach on this matter, but the conditioning of plat approval on some specific approach to water management is EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 6 PKELIMINAKY PLAT OF W E1 LING rON ESTATES Suri 05-077 Doc. INDEX # C 4 not supported by any evidence in the record. c. Sewer. As with water supply, the proposed density depends on urban -level sewer services. The proposed source of sewage disposal is through the Yakima Regional Wastewater System (YRWWS) in accordance with City of Yakima standards. The developer also intends to tie into lines extended under West Washington Avenue during the construction of the West Washington Avenue Improvement Project. As proposed, connection to the YRWWS will comply with sewage disposal requirements of the YCC and the Yakima Urban Area development standards. Verification of service availability, however, has not yet been submitted by the developer nor confirmed by the City of Yakima. d. Stormwater Management. A catch basin and drainage trench systems are proposed to be installed per Yakima County standards. The County has determined that the property is located within a flood -prone basin and in an area that may be subject to high seasonal groundwater levels. It was also found that potentially significant adverse impacts would likely occur to groundwater, surface water and drainage facilities unless existing and proposed drainage facilities, ground and surface water levels, and soil conditions are properly identified and managed. Mitigation Measures Al, A2, and A3 of the MDNS are required to ensure the proposed project adequately provides for suitable drainage without causing undue adverse impacts. As mitigated, the proposal will meet the requirements for stormwater management provisions. e. Transportation System (Street and Road) Requirements. Title 10 and Title 14 of the YCC provide minimum street standards and requirements for subdivision development including those for project site and fire access, interior and frontage • improvements, right-of-way standards and other transportation elements as may be necessary. As depicted on the preliminary plat, interior roads are also proposed and to be constructed to County standards with the exception of South 60th Avenue from Whatcom Avenue north to West Washington Avenue..The MDNS requires two full service access roads for development of all project phases subsequent to Phase 1. Subject to other MDNS conditions, the phased progression to the two full service access roads will provide adequate access to the subdivision. EXAMINERS RECOMMENDATION - 7 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF W ELIINGTON ESTATES SUIS 05-077 JJCX,. INDEX • • County standards require sidewalks on one side of the road for interior access streets. YCC 14.52.110.A. The main access street off of Washington Avenue, Wellington Drive, is to have sidewalks on either side of the street without objection from the applicant. Wellington Drive is required by the MDNS to be constructed to he extended to the south to foster the transportation grid for future development, so it is defensible in the public interest to require dual sidewalks since Wellington Drive will prospectively serve a Collector function. The other interior streets present a different picture. The applicant has suggested that the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan (YUACP) requires sidewalks on only one side of the street. See Policy T3.10, YUACP p. 11-24. Although the plan does not by its plain reading require no more than one sidewalk on the interior streets, some additional consideration must come to bear if sidewalks on both sides are to. be required on the other interior streets. The YUACP provides for encouraging full urban services to be provided in urban growth area subdivisions. See Policy G10.7 at YUACP p. 11-15. The Policy indicates that the highest standards should be controlling. The City of Yakima notes that fill] urban standards within the city require sidewalks on both sides of the street. On the other hand, while other provisions in the YUACP do not mandate only one sidewalk on residential urban streets, it is clear that the plan contemplates that a single sidewalk would be acceptable, and the County development standards are consistent with that concept. The City also notes that the bulk of the subject property is under consideration for annexation and that the annexation has been approved by the Boundary Review Board. The annexation has not yet been addressed by the Yakima City Council, and the City has held the annexation proceeding in abeyance pending decision-making on the subdivision application. If the property had been annexed prior to the application for the preliminary plat and the subdivision application had been made under city ordinances, the requirements for sidewalks on both sides of the access streets would have clearly been applicable. The final approval of the annexation cannot be presumed, however. If there was a clear public interest to be served by dual sidewalks on residential streets, then a condition requiring them would he appropriate. However, the County standard and the provisions of the YUACP counter arguments that the public interest demands dual sidewalks. EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION -.8 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES suu 05-077 DOL: INDEX The only information in the record indicating such a condition would be in the public interest is the existence of the city's ordinance. While the City Council is presumed to have its reasons for dual sidewalks on residential access streets, the rationale is not in the record here, so there is no basis for imposing a condition icer dual sidewalks.on the interior streets. Fire Protection: Section 13.09.070 of YCC and the International Fire Code specify fire flow requirements, including hydrants, which are required for new development. As previously described, the proponent is proposing to connect to the Nob Hill Water Association system. It is standard practice for the Association to coordinate the fire hydrant locations with the County Fire Marshal. As proposed and conditioned, the subdivision will comply with fire flow.provisions. g. with AID. h. Irrigation: Relocation of any of the irrigation conveyances requires coordination Critical Areas. There are no critical areas on the subject properties. i. Parks and Recreation. Pursuant to RCW 58.17.110 and related statutes, YCC 14.28.070 provides that the board of county commissioners may require plats to designate up to five percent of their land area, exclusive of streets, as either private or public parks and recreational areas, the nature of which shall be clearly indicated on the plat; provided, not less than a contiguous minimum often thousand square feet shall be so allocated. As an alternative to dedication of public parks and recreational areas, the developer may be required to contribute to the county for park purposes to benefit the area up to five percent of the developed value of the lots to be sold in the plat. However, no evidence in the record provides a basis for requiring contribution of park resources or funds; to the contrary, the staff report indicates that no contributions are necessary. Electrical, telephone, and garbage service: Electrical service, telephone service, and garbage service are located in the area. Installation of the power and phone facilities rnust be completed, or contracted with the provider to be completed, prior to final plat approval. 11.3 Public Interest The subject property is in the Yakima Urban Growth Area, is Zoned for suburban residential development, and has available to it all necessary urban utility services. As modified by EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 9 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES sua 05-077 DOC, INDEX # the conditions imposed in the MDNS and otherwise set forth in this recommendation, the proposed plat fulfills the policies of the YUACP and satisfies zoning and subdivision regulations without compromising other public interests, and is therefore in the public interest. From the foregoing Findings, the Examiner makes the following: CONCLUSIONS 1. The Examiner has jurisdiction to review and make recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners on preliminary long plat applications. 2. Subject to certain conditions set forth more fully in the recommendations below, including customary conditions imposed on plat approvals to assure compliance with development standards, and subject to requirements applicable to plat finalization, the proposed subdivision a) makes appropriate provisions for public health, safety and general welfare and for drainage ways, streets, other public ways, water supplies, and sanitary waste; b) serves the public use and interest; and c) is consistent with applicable development regulations. 3. In regard to consistency analysis (Y.C.C. 16B.06.020), a) the type of land use contemplated by the proposal (residential development) is permitted on this site, subject to conformance with the regulations of the zoning ordinance and building codes; b) the proposed level of development (lot size, contemplated density) will not exceed the allowable limit; c) with regard to the availability and adequacy of infrastructure and public facilities identified in the comprehensive plan, water and sewage disposal may be accomplished at the subject property by lawful means; and d) the character of the proposal, as conditioned, is consistent with the development standards of the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance. 4. While it is important in the public interest to provide for park and recreation resources demands by increasing residential development in the urban growth area, no fair basis presents itself for imposing requirements for commitment of subdivision properties to park uses in this case. EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION - 10 PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WELLINGTON ESTATES sua D5 -O77 OOC'. ;NDE. 5. The subdivision, as conditioned, is consistent with the public interest.

Cook, Director of Community & Economic Development CONTACT PERSON / TELEPHONE: Christine Wilson, Assistant Planner, 576-6736 SUMMARY EXPLANATION: Wellington Estates Phase 4 consists of 44 lots and is part of a 168 -lot, four-phase subdivision located in the vicinity of West Washington Avenue and Wellington Drive (S. 56th Ave.), within the R-1, Single -Family Residential zoning district. This subdivision received preliminary plat approval from Yakima County on November 28, 2006, and consequently is vested under Yakima County's rural development regulations. Phase 1, consisting of 45 Tots, was recorded prior to the annexation of this area, which occurred on April 8, 2007 (Occidental Annexation). Phases 2 and 3 are currently undeveloped. The applicant has completed, or signed a Subdivision Improvement Fund Escrow Agreement for all necessary public improvements as required by the conditions of approval for this final plat. The final plat has been reviewed by both County and City staff for compliance with the conditions of approval, as well as the subdivision regulations for both jurisdictions. The Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the Plat of Wellington Estates, (Phases 1 through 4) on April 12, 2006. Yakima County Board of Commissioners approved the preliminary plat of Wellington Estates on November 28, 2006, subject to conditions. (Cont.) Resolution X Ordinance Other (Specify) Final Plat Staff Report Contract Mail to (name and address): Phone: Funding Source APPROVED FOR SUBMITTAL: City Manager STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council approve the final plat of Wellington Estates. Phase 4, together with the adoption of the accompanying Resolution that will authorize the Mayor to sign the plat. BOARD RECOMMENDTION: Yakima County Board of Commissioners granted preliminary plat approval to this subdivision on November 28, 2006. COUNCIL ACTION: (Cont.) The City Engineer's office has reviewed and approved all necessary designs and engineering, and indicates that the required improvements are installed and inspected, or that the required financial agreement is in place to secure their installation. The City Chief Engineer has signed the plat in affirmation of this fact. The Planning Division has similarly reviewed the final plat and finds it to be in substantial conformance with the terms and conditions of the preliminary plat approval. Therefore, Staff recommends acceptance of the final plat and the adoption of the Resolution that authorizes the Mayor to sign the final plat. YMC 14.20.210 sets forth the following process for final plat approval: A. Upon receipt of a proposed final plat, the City Council shall at its next public meeting set a date for consideration of the final plat. Notice of the date, time, and location of the public meeting shall be given to the subdivision applicant, Surveyor, City Engineer, Office of Environmental Planning, and the Yakima County Health Officer at least four days prior to the date of the public meeting. B. The City Council shall review the final plat during the public meeting and shall approve the final plat if the Council determines that the final plat conforms to the conditions of preliminary plat approval and applicable state laws. C. Upon approving any final plat, the City Council shall authorize the Mayor to sign the final plat as evidence of City Council approval. (Ord. 98-65 § 2 (part), 1998).
