As a condition of environmental review, this development has been required to contribute $15,212 for its pro rata share of the planned construction of a roundabout at 72nd Avenue and Washington Avenue. VII. Development Services Team. The Development Services Team met on March 20, 2008 and the following comments were submitted regarding this proposal: (1) Engineering Division: This development can be served by sewer from Washington Avenue, 72nd Avenue or Easy Street. A 30 -foot right-of-way is required along the southerly and easterly sides of the plat for Coolidge Road right-of-way and 68th Avenue right-of-way. The American Association of State. Highway Transportation Officials requires a 96 -foot -diameter fire access turn around. Private roads will be built to City standards at 33 feet with 5 -foot sidewalks on both sides. Two accesses are required for this development. Frontage improvements are required on Washington Avenue and 72nd Avenue. Additional right-of-way may be asked for on 72nd Avenue. A county Drainage Improvement District line may have to be realigned in this plat. After reviewing the proposed PD/Plat of Hidden Lakes, and all of its related covenants, maintenance and common open space plans, it is the determination of the City Engineer in accordance with Sections 12.02.060, 12.03.100, 12.04.050, 12.05.040 and 12.06.030 of the Yakima Municipal Code that the proposed standards shown upon the applicant's proposed plat and application are hereby adjusted and accepted, provided a note is placed on the final plat stating "The streets within this plat are private and shall never be accepted into the City of Yakima as public streets."

INDEX # G- RECEIVED AUG 0 7 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PANNING DIV. (2) Stormwater: Complete stormwater design plans, specifications and runoff/ storage calculations supporting the stormwater designs are required pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stormwater Manual and City of Yakima standards. These plans and control measures must be reviewed and approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction. Additionally, the City now requires that all Underground Injection. Control (UIC) wells be registered with the Department of Ecology (DOE) and that the engineer provide the City a hard copy of the UIC well registration form and the DOE -issued UIC well registration number before drainage approval will be granted. (3) Life Safety Division: The following comments are based on the information supplied for the Development Services Team meeting: (a) The front gate does not appear to meet the fire code width requirement of 20 feet. (b) Hydrant locations will be determined through collaboration with Nob Hill Water. (c) The electronic gates should incorporate a Knox key switch system. After reviewing this development and the effects it will have with the established neighborhood it will border, it is evident that it will be difficult for the fire department to ever reach acceptable response time for that neighborhood. Whereas Hidden Lakes will not increase response times to the subdivision to the south, the problem encountered will be the inability to make rapid and direct connectivity to those citizens. Negotiating the turns and two -gate system through the center of this complex creates such a delay to South 69th Avenue that it is no better than the existing windy route which requires the use of Occidental Avenue. Fire is estimated to double in size every 30 to 60 seconds. When attempting to reach a house fire, the fire department tries to save every possible. second. A more direct route could reduce the time by approximately two minutes. The police and ambulance services would have these same time issues to deal with. One way to alleviate this issue would be to extend Coolidge Avenue at South 72nd Avenue eastward until it connects with South 69`h Avenue. Response times to that area would then align with the standards that have been set forth by this City. The detailed work that has been put into the creation of Hidden Lakes is appreciated, but this development must also take into consideration the welfare of adjacent property owners. (4) Nob Hill Water: Nob Hill Water Association is available to serve the proposed development of Teammates. The available fire flow at the intersection of 72nd and Washington Avenues is 5000 gpm. The fire flow throughout the development will be between 4000 and 5000 gpm depending on location. Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

(5) Traffic Engineering: The proposed Teammates preliminary plat indicates 161 lots with internal private streets and gated entrances from public roads, using the Planned Development provisions of the Municipal Code. The SEPA checklist states the housing units will be "middle income," that some children will be added to local schools and does not declare the housing will be limited to senior citizens. Traffic Engineering has the following comments: (a) The project proposes a gated community with private streets. Emergency access, refuse and postal service needs as well as visitor access will need to be provided. (b) Street maintenance including snow removal, street signage and traffic control within the Planned Development are the responsibility of the Homeowners Association. (c) This development requires review under the Transportation Concurrency Ordinance (YMC 12.08). The 161 -lot development is expected to generate 1,540 vehicle trips (daily) or 163 during the PM Peak Hour. The Concurrency application has been submitted for review. (d) A second public access directly to the city street system is strongly recommended and the applicant should consider the second access to 72nd Avenue rather than 69th Avenue. (e) The current proposed access to 69th Avenue would add traffic to enter a low-density neighborhood on a local access street. Besides impacting an existing neighborhood, fire and emergency access via 69th Avenue is circuitous, adding to response time. If the applicant chooses to pursue the second street access to 69th Avenue, then Coolidge Road should be extended to 69th Avenue to improve emergency response times and reduce negative impacts to the existing neighborhood. (f) The Yakima County West Valley Neighborhood Plan (draft) identifies the need to extend 72nd Avenue from Coolidge Road to Occidental and Ahtanum Road. A total of 60 feet of right of way for 72nd Avenue has been suggested for a (future) 3 -lane street. Frontage improvements with the Teammate Hidden Lakes development on 72"d Avenue should extend to the southern limits of the plat. (g) An existing irrigation structure, including open water areas and a concrete ditch is located adjacent to the property at the intersection of 72nd Avenue and Teammates, LLC 8 SE Corner of W.

Layout of the sewer is required. The Wastewater Division is concerned about the "narrow private roads" of this development. Much like the Fire Department, Wastewater will be required to maneuver large vehicles (Vactor trucks) within this development to maintain the public sewer. (7) Building Codes: Each lot will require plan review, permits and inspection prior to occupancy per Section 105 of the 2006 International Residential Code. Ron Melcher will address Fire Department access. Addressing is assigned to the respective lots (set forth in the Planning Division staff report). (8) Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority (YRCAA): The YRCAA has the following comments: (a) The proponent/developer must address the air emission impacts, in particular PM2.5, prior to any SEPA approval. Air emissions from such a large development (161 lots), if and when using solid fuel devices (i.e., fireplaces, woodstoves) during the winter season at one time, may violate the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for the 24-hour average. (b) Contractors doing demolition, excavation, clearing, construction or landscaping work must file a Dust Control Plan with the YRCAA. (c) Prior to demolishing structures, if any, an asbestos survey must be done by a certified asbestos building inspector. Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

INDEX RECEIVED AUG (i V 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA HAMS M (d) Any asbestos found must be removed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor prior to demolition. (e) A notification for the demolition must be filed with YRCAA and the appropriate fee paid. (f) Since this project is located within the Yakima Urban Growth Area, burning is prohibited at all times. (9) Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology): Ecology has the following comments: (a) Regarding toxics clean up, based upon the historical agriculture use of this land, there is a possibility the soil contains residual concentrations of pesticides. Ecology recommends that the soils be sampled and analyzed for lead and arsenic and for organochlorine pesticides. If these contaminants are found at concentrations above the MTCA clean up levels, Ecology recommends that the potential buyers be notified of their occurrence. (b) Regarding water quality, an NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit from the Washington State Department of Ecology is required if there is a potential for Stormwater discharge from a construction site with more than one acre of disturbed ground. This permit requires that the SEPA checklist fully disclose anticipated activities including building, road construction and utility placements. Obtaining a permit is a minimum of a 38 -day process and may take up to 60 days if the original SEPA checklist does not disclose all proposed activities. The permit requires that a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Erosion Sediment Control Plan) is prepared and implementedfor all permitted construction sites. These control measures must be 'able to prevent soil from being carried into surface water (this includes storm drains) by stormwater runoff. Permit coverage and erosion control measures must be in place prior to any clearing, grading or construction. (c) Regarding water resources, the water purveyor is responsible for insuring that the proposed use(s) are within the limitations of its water rights. If the proposal's actions are different than the existing water right (source, purpose, the place of use or period of use), then it is subject to approval from the Department of Ecology pursuant to Section 90.03.380 RCW and Section 30.44.100 RCW.

YVCOG expressed one concern with the proposed development regarding the "lack of right-of-way on lots 99-104 for the future eastward expansion of Coolidge Road, but later agreed that such future expansion would not be practical due to development to the east. VIII. Zoning and Land Use. The zoning of the property within the proposal and surrounding the proposal is Single -Family Residential (R-1). Adjacent property to the north is developed with single-family residences. Adjacent property to the east, west and south is either undeveloped or developed with single-family residences. IX. Jurisdiction. Sections 1.43.080, 14.05.050, 14.20.100 and 15.28.030 of the Yakima Municipal Code (YMC) provide that the Hearing Examiner shall hold a public hearing and submit a recommendation to the City Council relative to the subdivision criteria listed in YMC 14.20.100 and in RCW 58.17 and the planned development criteria in YMC 15.28. X. Preliminary Plat and Planned Development Review Criteria. Sections 14.20.100 and 15.28.040 of the YMC provide that the Hearing Examiner shall review a proposed preliminary plat and planned development during an open record public hearing to inquire into and determine whether or not the following standards are satisfied: (1) Subsection 14.20.100(1) -- Consistency with the provisions of the City's Urban Area Zoning Ordinance: A determination of consistency with the provisions of the City's Urban Area Zoning Ordinance involves a consideration of the following provisions of the UAZO: Teammates, LLC 11 SE Corner of W. Washington and South 72nd Avenues 161 -Lot Plat of "Hidden Lakes" PRE LONG PLAT #3-07; PD #1-07; EC #24-07 DOC. INDEX # c -r RECEIVED AUG 0 7 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PIANNIMG o (a) Consistency with Intent of R-1 Zoning District: Subsection 15.03.030(2) of the Urban Area Zoning Ordinance (UAZO) indicates that the intent of the Single -Family Residential (R-1) zoning district is to establish and preserve residential neighborhoods for detached single-family dwellings and to locate moderate -density residential development up to 7 dwelling units per net residential acre in areas served by public water and public sewer. The residential density within this proposed preliminary plat is only 4.2 dwelling units per net residential acre. The R-1 district is intended to have not more than 45% lot coverage; access to individual lots by a local access street; large front, rear and side setbacks; and one or two story structures. All proposed development in the plat will meet the 45% lot coverage requirement; all lots will have access to a private street; all lots will have at least the standard 45 -foot front yard setback, 5 -foot side yard setback and, if allowed under adjustment criteria, a 15 -foot rear yard setback in lieu of the standard 20 -foot rear yard setback. These features indicate that the proposed preliminary plat and residential planned development would be consistent with the intent of the R-1 zoning district. (b) Consistency with Intent of Planned Development Provisions: The UAZO indicates that Planned Development (PD) projects that include elements normally subject to legislative review, such as rezones or long subdivisions, shall be processed in accordance with the Class (3) review procedures of Chapter 15.15 of the UAZO. Class (3) uses are characterized as being normally incompatible with their surroundings, but following an open record public hearing the Hearing Examiner may permit these uses if questions of compatibility can be satisfactorily addressed. The fmal decision in a Class (3) review must state specific reasons upon which the decision to approve, approve with conditions, or deny is based. The findings must demonstrate that the decision complies with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan, the intent of the zoning district(s), and the provisions and standards established in Title 15 of the UAZO. Section 15.28.010 of the UAZO states that Planned Development (PD) regulations are intended to provide a degree of flexibility in design and density m planned developments so long as overall development standards and quality of life considerations are maximized. PD regulations are intended to create regulatory incentives to encourage construction of affordable housing and a mix of housing types, encourage small-scale mixed- use retail/residential/professional development within neighborhoods, and encourage compatible infill developments. This development meets the intent of Section 15.28.010 of the UAZO because it incorporates a unique private gated Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

(c) Consistency of Requested Setback and Lot Size Modifications with Planned Development Principles in the Zoning Ordinance: Section 15.28.040 of the UAZO states that the Hearing Examiner may modify development standards of the zone in which a planned development is located in accordance with the Administrative Adjustment criteria in Chapter 15.10 of the UAZO and after consideration of the following planned development principles. The following planned development principles relate to the requested 5 -foot rear setback adjustment from 20 feet to 15 feet for all of the lots and the requested 20% (1,400 - square -foot) lot size adjustment from 7,000 square feet to not less than 5,600 square feet for 110 of the lots in the following ways: (i) Privacy. Each development shall provide reasonable visual and acoustical privacy for dwelling units and spaces for private use. Mitigating measures may include fences, insulation, walks, barriers and landscaping. As part of this planned development, the developer has proposed a 6 -foot -high vinyl fence around' the perimeter of the development, and individual property owners will not be prohibited from installing interior fencing on the property line. In addition, there will be no clustering of units and all zero lot line lots will abut a large common area. Thus, visual and acoustical privacy should not be issues for this development. (ii) Light and Air. Building space, coverage and height shall be designated to provide adequate provisions for natural light and air. The proposed development meets the standards of the R-1 zoning district with the exception of the requested adjustments. Due to the design of the development with its trails and open spaces, the proposed rear yard and lot size adjustments will not preclude residents from having adequate access to natural light and air. (iii) Code Compliance. In no case may spacing, setbacks or heights of buildings violate fire, safety or other building code requirements. The requested rear yard setback and lot size adjustments would meet all applicable fire, safety and building code requirements. Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W. Washington and South 72nd Avenues 161 -Lot Plat of "Hidden Lakes" PRE LONG PLAT #3-07; PD #1-07; EC #24-07 13 DOC. INDEX # C RECEIVED AUG 0 7 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. (iv) Compatibility. The PD shall be integrated with surrounding land uses and minimize any negative impacts thereto. The property and the entire surrounding area is zoned R-1. Neighboring developments include Valley Estates to the north, Easy Acres to the south and Crown Crest to the west. The adjacent property to the east is currently used as orchard. A portion of that property has been platted as Lemona Estates, but is not developed. By zoning the property R-1, the City has recognized its suitability for single-family development. The proposed density is approximately 4.2 development units per acre in a zone that allows 7 units per acre with public water and sewer. Open spaces, perimeter fencing, extensive landscaping and architectural control of the homes and clubhouse will ensure that the Hidden Lakes development will be compatible with both the existing residential neighborhoods and the new residential areas which are under construction. In addition, as a SEPA mitigating condition, the developer will be required to extend Coolidge Road to connect with South 69th Avenue in order to provide the plat of Easy Acres with an efficient fire access route around the PD of Hidden Lakes. (v) Quality of Life. The modifications would not result in a significantly reduced quality of life for residents or the larger neighborhood. The proposed modifications of this PD from the existing R-1 zoning district standards should not significantly reduce the quality of life for residents or the larger neighborhood. The proposed reduction of the minimum rear yard setback and lot size standards will only increase the quality of life for the residents of this PD, as the target residents for this development are active adults. In many cases, potential buyers may want the option of purchasing a smaller property/home to maintain, while still feeling that they are part of a larger subdivision or community. The quality of life of the larger neighborhood will be enhanced, as already mentioned, by the extension of Coolidge Road easterly from South 72nd Avenue to South 69th Avenue in order to provide increased fire protection for the residents of the Easy Acres development to the south of this proposal. (d) Consistency of Requested Rear Setback and Lot Size Modifications with Zoning Ordinance . Administrative Adjustment Criteria: Chapter 15.10 of the UAZO authorizes the adjustment of certain standards of the ordinance, including building setback requirements. Section 15.28.040 of the UAZO allows the zoning ordinance minimum lot size requirements to be reduced by a maximum of 20% in planned unit developments if all other requirements of the UAZO are met or Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

INDEX # G -- RECEIVED AUG 0 7 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. adjustments are granted by the Hearing Examiner. Such adjustments are intended to allow for site design flexibility balanced against the general welfare of the neighborhood and community. At least one of the following criteria listed in Section 15.10.020 of the UAZO must be satisfied in order to allow the requested 5 -foot rear building setback reduction from 20 feet to 15 feet on all the lots of the proposed preliminary plat and planned residential development and the requested 20% (1,400 -square -foot) lot size reduction for 110 of the lots from 7,000 square feet to various sizes of not less than 5,600 square feet as shown on the preliminary plat and residential planned development site plan. (i) Siting for solar access: Solar access considerations are not relevant to this adjustment request. (ii) Zero Lot Line construction: While zero lot line construction is proposed for this PD, no adjustment has been requested to reduce the lot coverage or side yard setback standards which would normally be expected with zero lot line construction. (iii) Coordinate site features with surrounding land uses: As previously noted, the proposed use of single-family development within the plat and planned development is compatible with the R-1 zoning of the area and the existing land uses in the surrounding developments. In view of the open spaces, amenities and design features of the proposal, location of single-family homes within 15 feet of the rear lot line of the proposed lots and on 110 lots that are between 5,600 square feet and 7,000 square feet in size does not create any development constraints. All lots either abut a proposed lot with a 15 -foot rear yard setback or a proposed open space corridor/pathway. Consequently, the only properties affected by this development are those of the development itself. (iv) Flexibility of design: As already noted, the purposes of a planned development are to provide for a degree of flexibility in design and density so long as overall development standards and quality of life considerations are maximized; to create regulatory incentives to encourage construction of affordable housing and a mix of housing types; to encourage small-scale mixed-use retail/residential/ professional development within neighborhoods; and to encourage compatible infill developments. This proposed development provides for all of these elements except for small-scale mixed use retail/residential/professional development. Teammates, LLC 15 SE Corner of W.

(v) Consistency with sub -area plans: No adopted sub -area plans exist that address this area. (e) Consistency with Zero Lot Line Development Requirements of Zoning Ordinance. Section 15.09.040 of the UAZO authorizes the use of Zero Lot Line development if the following requirements set forth in Subsection 15.09.040(C) of the UAZO are met. This proposal complies with those requirements in the following ways: (i) Development Standards: All zero lot line developments shall comply with the standards of Tables 5-1 and 5-2. This proposed preliminary plat and planned development meets the zero lot line minimum lot size standard and the other standards of both Table 5-1 and 5-2 of the UAZO with the exception of the rear yard setback standard which may properly be adjusted under the circumstances here presented by applying the Planned Development Modification Criteria of Section 15.28.040 of the UAZO and the Administrative Adjustment criteria of Section 15.10.020 of the UAZO. (ii) Interior Side -Yard Setback Standard. The dwelling unit may be placed on one side property line (a zero setback). The setback standard from the other side property line shall be ten feet. No structures except for patios, pools, fences, walls, and other similar elements are permitted within the required setback area. The zero lot line homes within this plat/PD will all be located on a side property line abutting a common open space parking area and, as a condition of the approval and development agreement, no structures except for patios, pools, fences and other similar elements will be permitted in the opposite ten foot side setback area. (iii) Rear -Yard Setback Standard. The rear yard setback standard is ten feet. The plat/PD exceeds this standard by 5 feet because it provides a total of 15 feet of rear yard setback area. (iv) Front and Streetside Setback Standards. Front and streetside setbacks shall meet the standards of Table 5-1. All development within the plat/PD meets or exceeds the applicable front and streetside setback requirements. (v) Accessory Building Setback. Accessory buildings and structures shall observe the setback requirement for the main dwelling unit. No accessory building setbacks have been applied for at this time. .

The plat shall show the zero lot lines and the related easements. Each individual zero lot line home will be required to be located on its own lot, and the applicant will be required to submit a revised plat layout 'showing all zero lot lines, and their related easements prior to preliminary plat approval. (vii) Openings Prohibited on Zero Lot Line Side. In order to maintain privacy there shall be no windows, doors, air conditioning units or any other type of openings in the wall along the zero lot line, except when such a wall abuts permanent open spaces, or a public or private right-of-way. The proposed lot layouts, as submitted, will meet this requirement because all zero lot line homes will abut a common open space parking area so as to allow openings on all sides of the future homes. (viii) Maintenance and Drainage Easements. A perpetual maintenance, eave overhang, and drainage easement at least five feet wide shall be provided on the lot adjacent to the zero lot line, which, with the exception of walls and/or fences, shall be kept clear of structures. This easement shall be shown on the plat and incorporated into each deed transferring title on the property. The wall shall be maintained in its original color and treatment unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the two affected lot owners. Eaves, but not any other part of any structure, may protrude across a side lot line, and such protrusion shall not exceed 18." Water runoff from the dwelling placed on the lot is limited to the easement area. A maintenance and drainage easement will not be required for any of the proposed zero lot line construction in this proposed plat/PD because all drainage/runoff will be directed to run to common open space areas. (ix) Common Open Space and Maintenance Facilities. Any common open space provided shall comply with the provisions of Section 15.09.030. As required, the developer has provided a common open space and maintenance plan. This plan will be required to be incorporated into the development agreement and recorded as a covenant of the plat. (2) Subsection 14.20.100(2) -- Consistency with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan: The City's Future Land Use Map and Comprehensive Plan designate the property within the proposed preliminary plat as suitable for low density Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

This proposed preliminary plat is consistent with that designation and is also consistent with other provisions of the Comprehensive Plan that encourage infilling, 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 density of development will be less than 7 dwelling units per acre. Specifically, the proposal is consistent with the following Objectives, Goals and Policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan: (a) Goal H3 which is to preserve and improve existing residential neighborhoods; (b) Objective G9 which is to encourage quality design while achieving economic growth patterns; (c) Objective L2 which is to establish a pattern of development that supports a sense of community; (d) Objective H3.1 which is to stabilize existing,viable neighborhoods; (e) Policy H1.6.2 which is to encourage compatible infill of existing neighborhoods to promote lower land development and cost of facilities; (f) Goal H1 which is to encourage diverse and affordable housing choices; and (g) Policy H1.6.1 which is to review existing zoning regulations and consider innovative standards through development incentives. (3) Subsection 14.20.100(3) -- Consistency with the provisions of this title, Title 14 entitled "Subdivision Ordinance": As proposed and with the adjustments and recommended conditions, this proposed preliminary plat/residential planned development would meet. all the design requirements in Chapter 14.30 of the City's subdivision ordinance and in the City's Title 12 development standards.

Consistency Analysis under Subsection 16.06.020(B) of the Yakima Municipal Code. The following analysis involves the consistency of the preliminary plat/residential planned development with applicable development regulations, or in the absence of applicable regulations, the adopted Comprehensive Plan as mandated by the State Growth Management Act and the Yakima Municipal Code. During project review, neither the City nor any subsequent reviewing body may re-examine alternatives to, or hear appeals on, the items identified in these conclusions except for issues of code interpretation. (1) The type of land use contemplated by the proposal (a residential development) is permitted on this site so long as it complies with the conditions of the SEPA Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance and the conditions imposed by the Yakima City Council, as well as the regulations of the zoning ordinance, subdivision ordinance, building codes and other applicable regulations. (2) The level of development (lot size, contemplated density) would not exceed the allowable level of development in the Single -Family Residential (R-1) zoning district since the recommended lot size adjustment satisfies the zoning ordinance criteria. (3) The availability and adequacy of infrastructure and public facilities is not an issue because the additional infrastructure that would be provided at the applicant's expense would insure that adequate infrastructure and public facilities are available for the proposed preliminary plat/planned development. (4) The character of the proposal, such as the proposal's consistency with applicable development standards of the City's Urban Area Zoning Ordinance, primarily involves consideration of specific development standards relating to lot size, access, potable water, sewage disposal and other features of the proposed preliminary plat/planned development which have been discussed in detail above. With the MDNS conditions and the additional recommended conditions, the proposed preliminary Teammates, LLC SE Corner of W.

CONCLUSIONS Based on the foregoing Findings, the Examiner reaches the following Conclusions: (1) The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to recommend to the Yakima City Council the approval of a proposed preliminary plat and planned development pursuant to Section 14.20.100 of the subdivision ordinance and Section 15.28.030 of the zoning ordinance. (2) A SEPA Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) was issued for this proposed preliminary plat/planned development on July 2, 2008 which contains required mitigation measures that became final without any appeal. (3) The proposed preliminary plat and planned development of Hidden Lakes, with the adjustment of the rear setback conditions detailed below, is in compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan, zoning ordinance and subdivision ordinance; makes appropriate and adequate provisions for the public health, safety and general welfare and for open spaces, drainage ways, streets, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation, playgrounds and sidewalks; and, according to the weight of the evidence presented at the hearing, does not require that specific provisions be made for the other requisite plat considerations such as additional schools, additional schoolgrounds or additional planning features that assure safe walking conditions for students who only walk to and from school. (4) This proposed preliminary plat and planned development is in compliance with the consistency requirements of Subsection 16.06.020(B) of the Yakima Municipal Code.

WASHINGTON STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT PRELIMINARY MITIGATED DETERMINATION OF • NONSIGNIFICANCE CITY OF YAKIMA, WASHINGTON July 2, 2008 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Notice of Application and Environmental Review for the subdivision of 38 acres into 161 lots utilizing the City of Yakima's Urban Area Zoning planned development provisions. PROPONENT: Teammates, LLC LOCATION: Southeast corner of the intersection of West Washington and S. 72°d Avenues. PARCEL NUMBER: 18133242001. LEAD AGENCY: City of Yakima, Washington. FILE NUMBER: UAZO PD #1-07, Preliminary Long Plat #3-07 & EC #24-07 DETERMINATION: The City of Yakima, as lead agency for this proposal, after reviewing a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency, has determined that the project will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment, and an environmental impact statement (EIS) will not be required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c), provided the measures listed below are used to mitigate potential adverse impacts. The information relied upon in reaching this 'determination is available to the public upon request at the City of Yakima Planning Division. IDENTIFIED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES: This Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) is hereby conditioned upon the following mitigating measures, as authorized under WAC 197-11-660 and Yakima Municipal Code YMC 6.88.160, and the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan, which contains goals, policies, and regulations which provide substantive authority to require mitigation under the State Environment Policy Act. FINDINGS: A. Air Quality/Dust Control: Because this site is located within the Yakima Urban Growth Area, the trees and other unwanted vegetation identified in the Environmental Checklist for disposal must be removed by some means other than burning on the site or any other site. Contractors doing grading, site preparation, construction, and / or landscaping work on this project must file a dust control plan with the Yakima Regional Clean Air Authority (YRCAA). DOC Hf`4LItX 1 # G- / In addition, due to an existing home and outbuildings being demolished, prior to demolition an asbestos survey done by a currently certified asbestos building surveyor is required and should asbestos be found it must be removed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor prior to demolition. If no asbestos is found, the owner/demolition contractor must file a notification with YRCAA. B. Water Quality/Construction Storm Water Pollution Control: The water purveyor is responsible for ensuring that the proposed use(s) are within the limitations of its water rights. If the proposal's actions are different than the existing water right (source, purpose, the place of use, or period of use), then it is subject to approval from the Department of Ecology pursuant to Sections 90.03.380 RCW and 90.44.100 RCW. An NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit for the Washington State Department of Ecology is required as there is a potential for Stormwater discharge from a construction site with more than one acre of disturbed ground. Erosion control measures must be in place prior to any clearing, grading or construction. These control measures must be able to prevent soil from being carried into surface water (including storm drains) by stormwater runoff. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Erosion Sediment Control Plan) is required for all permitted construction sites. C. Storm Water Management: Complete stormwater design plans, specifications and runoff / storage calculations supporting the stormwater design are required pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stormwater Manual and the City of Yakima Stormwater Management Guide. These plans and control measures must be reviewed and approved by the Yakima City Engineer prior to construction. In addition, all Underground Injection Control (UIC) wells are required to be registered with the Department of Ecology and the engineer shall provide to the City a hard copy of the UIC well registration form and DOE issued UIC well registration number before drainage approval will be granted. D. Toxics Clean Up: Based upon the historical agricultural use of this land, there is a possibility the soil contains residual concentrations of pesticides. Therefore, the Department of Ecology recommends that the soils be sampled and analyzed for lead and arsenic and for organochloride pesticides.

The purpose of density bonuses is to encourage developers to promote housing affordability by encouraging planned developments to include affordable housing strategies within a project. B. Eligibility to obtain a density bonus is based upon site plan review and hearing approval by the Hearing Examiner. Such density bonus may be granted if the PD plan submitted is judged by the Hearing Examiner to have achieved one or more of the density bonus criteria. C. The maximum density bonus allowed is limited to an additional ten percent over the density allowed in the underlying zone. D. Density Bonus Criteria. Upon submittal of the PD application, Planning reviews the proposed project and submits a report to the Hearing Examiner, containing recommendations and findings of fact with respect to the allocation of density bonus for the project. The amount of density bonus shall be decided by the examiner based on the type and amount of additional amenity provided by the project. No density bonus will be allowed if •it is determined by the examiner that the additional density 'may create incompatibilities with adjoining properties, significant environmental degradation, or substantial reduction of the capacity of available community infrastructure. Consideration of the following criteria should be given but need not be limited to these: 1. Affordability of Housing. Items for consideration here would include the provision of a mix of housing types, utilization of townhouses, condominiums and apartments directed toward providing a reasonable variety of housing types, especially including low- and moderate -income dwelling units, and provisions of housing for senior citizens (age 55 and over) and special needs populations. Up to 5% additional density bonus may be allowed for this category. 2. Facilitation of Small Lot Sizes and Clustering. Small lot sizes, clustering and other options, which increase the supply of affordable housing and home ownership options, will be considered under this category. Up to 5% additional density bonus may be allowed for this category. 3. Infill Development. Development that utilizes without overburdening existing infrastructure may be considered eligible for density bonuses. Up to 5% additional density bonus may be allowed for this category. 4. Quality of Life. Use density bonuses to reward projects which: a) Treat environmental features sensitively; b) Include parks, other public or private open space, and interconnected pathways; c) Are designed to promote security and safety within a neighborhood and community context; and d) Utilize other design features to enhance the quality of life for residents and the larger neighborhood. 5.

Teammates LLC initial management plan for the "Hidden Lakes" open space areas is intended to be the beginning point for a positive long term relationship between the Teammates LLC, Hidden Lakes Homeowners Association (HLHOA) and the City of Yakima (CY). The plan shall apply to all open spaces as designed and designated at the time of final plat approval. The intended uses for the common open space include landscaping, fencing, walking paths, water features and drainage control. The development and design of these uses will be consistent with the approved final site plan. 2. Creation and Enforcement The creation of the open space for Hidden Lakes will be in accordance with YMC 15.09.030 and incorporated into the site plan. There shall be restrictive covenants and dedication of open space accepted by the HLHOA which acknowledge the creation of the open spaces as originally designed and the responsibility to retain and maintain them permanently. The CY will also be vested with the right to enforce retention and/or maintenance. If open spaces are allowed to deteriorate or are not maintained consistent with the approved plan, enforcement may include CY maintaining/restoring the open spaces and assessing the cost of such maintenance/restoration to. the HLHOA and it's owners via lien and/or direct civil action.

Inspections Appropriate CY personnel will be welcome to inspect the existence and maintenance of all designed open spaces at anytime. 3 DOC. INDEX # 1 4. Landscape Design RECEIVED MAR 1 4 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA PLANNING DIV. Initial landscape design and plant material will serve to enhance and preserve scenic and aesthetic values. It will be consistent with a Yakima theme...as such, plant materials will be hearty and able to withstand normal high and low temperature ranges. Large trees for summertime shade and heat relief will be accompanied by size appropriate evergreen trees, shrubs and perennials designed to have year round "seasonal" interests including habitat for desirable wildlife. Plant material that is known to have problems attracting or being victimized by undesirable insects or rodents will not be used (if problems occur or are discovered after initial installation, said plant material will be replaced). Use of grass is important to the drainage control aspect of the design as well as for balance, scenic beauty and reduction of noxious weeds. Planters without grass as well as tree rings within grassed areas will be covered with natural screened bark to cover drip irrigation equipment, retain water and reduce weed growth. 5. Fencing Design Fencing shall delineate the property perimeter and discourage trespassing, thereby maintaining privacy and security of the open space and HLHOA member properties. Fencing shall also aesthetically match the character of the landscape. 6. Irrigation Design Irrigation water rights are available within the Hidden Lakes development and will be utilized to irrigate the grass and plant material in the open space areas. Standard irrigation design practices will be employed including use of water saving sprinklers for grass areas and micro drip irrigation in planting beds, which promote water savings, weed reduction and deep rooting. Winterizing "blow out" ports will be strategically installed. Electronic timers will control watering schedules 4 DOC. INDEX # L-% RECEIVED MAR 1 4 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA and will be capable of accommodating drought years, water rationinglillNNING DIV. zone watering needs in coordination with individual homeowners. 7. Path Design Paths will be designed to have comfortable and durable walking surfaces. The design should include strategic lighting and be able to withstand wintertime snow removal. 8. Landscape Maintenance All plant material will be inspected and pruned appropriately each year in the late winter/early spring. Grass mowing will be done in season (approximately April -October) no less than once per week. Plant fertilizing, when needed, will be accomplished in a manner consistent with individual plant needs and generally accepted practices and products. Weed control will be accomplished by a spray program on an as needed basis and will include weed control in planting beds and weed control in the lawn areas using generally accepted practices and products. Insect control will be accomplished via contract with a licensed and bonded spray professional for annual and as needed services. Lawn edging and re -barking of the planting beds and tree rings will be accomplished on an as needed basis. 9. Fence Maintenance Fence will be inspected periodically, but not less than once per month, and repaired/maintained as needed. 10. Irrigation Maintenance At the beginning of each irrigating season (usually April), all irrigation systems in the open areas will be turned on and tested... any needed repairs revealed during testing will be addressed immediately. During DOC. 5 INDEX # C_ j� RECEIVED MAROF )l 4 2008 CITY VAKIWIA the watering season, lawn mowing personnel will activate the irrigafItA G DIV. system after a mowing, at least once per month, to inspect system for breaks, leaks or malfunctioning equipment...anything discovered will be repaired immediately. At the end of the irrigating season (usually October), all irrigation lines in the open space areas will be blown out using a high volume air compressor to prevent winter freezing and damage. 11. Path Maintenance Walking path areas will be maintained on an as needed basis and inspected no less than once per month. Maintenance will include weed control, garbage and debris clean up, sweeping and snow removal. HLHOA may decide to only perform snow removal on certain walking paths during winter months. Maintenance will also include resurfacing and bridge replacement as necessary. 12.Water Feature Maintenance Any water features, bodies of water or creeks will be inspected periodically, but not less than once per months and repaired/maintained as needed. 13. Open Space Maintenance Budget It is anticipated that the budget for the open space maintenance described in this plan will be $45 per household per month or $86,940 annually (when development is fully built out). This budget figure will be reflected in the HLHOA budget as a required cost of retention and maintenance of the required open spaces. Budget considerations include equipment and tool maintenance with impound for periodic replacement. Fertilizers, weed control products, fuel, PVC parts, PVC glue & miscellaneous irrigation parts. Labor costs plus burden, outside contracts 6 DOC. INDEX ri=t.01G1!lCU MAR 1 4 2008 CITY OF YAKIMA for predetermined services, emergency or as needed outside contra!tbNNIND DIV. costs.
