were as follows:
a. Codes:
2
Columbia Ridge Homes, LLC
PLP #001 -15, and SEPA #028 -15
Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
Per section 503 of the IFC, an approved fire department turnaround is
required where access roads exceed 150 feet and serve more than 2 single
family dwellings, unless dwellings are equipped with a fire sprinkler system.
Fire hydrants shall be installed minimally every 500 feet along fire department
access roads, which shall provide adequate water supplies in accordance with
the required fire flow of proposed structures. Required fire hydrants shall be
functional prior to the issuance of building permits.
b. Engineering:
i. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.67 and 12.05 new curb, gutter and sidewalk required
within new development. Street section shall conform to standard detail R3.
New sidewalks shall be constructed per standard detail R5.
ii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.64 driveways to be constructed per this chapter and
standard detail R4. Any existing driveway that is abandoned or not used shall be
replaced with standard curb and sidewalk.
iii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.72 an excavation and street break permit shall be
obtained for all work within the public right of way. Refer to chapter 8 for
requirements. Roads less than five years old can be cut, but will cost one
hundred fifty percent of restoration fee with no PCI discount.
iv. Easements will need to be established per YMC Ch. 12.02.
V. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.020 street and right of way widths shall conform to this
section unless otherwise approved. 50' of right of way is required for the new
streets. Summitview Ave. is classified as a Minor Arterial, requiring a total of 80'
of right of way. It appears that there is 40' of right of way along the subject
parcel, which would be adequate.
vi. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.060 temporary dead -end streets shall be provided with
a temporary cul -de -sac at the closed end and the design shall provide for
continuation of the full right -of -way width to the property boundary.
vii. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.080 a street light shall be installed at each street
intersection and at mid -block if the block exceeds five hundred feet in length.
Street lights shall meet the design and placement standards of the city engineer.
Lighting improvements shall become the property of the city of Yakima upon
installation and will thereafter be maintained by the city.
c. Stormwater:
i. For the long plat of the property there are no drainage requirements. However, if
the applicant proceeds with any utility work prior to getting approved civil plans,
an erosion and sediment control plan must be in place before turning any dirt and
approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction.
d. Nob Hill Water:
Columbia Ridge Homes, LLC
PLP #001 -15, and SEPA #028 -15
Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
%., Nob Hill Water currently is able to serve domestic water to this development."
e. Transit
i. Yakima Transit currently provides fixed -route bus service along Summitview
Avenue (Route 1) south of this site within the FTA defined walk -to -route distance
of 3/4 of a mile. There are sidewalks along the site's frontage, Summitview.
ii. Yakima Transit provides limited services for school -aged children, including
those that do not qualify for the school district's bussing program, because they
are within a mile of the school. The following schools are located within a mile of
the proposed subdivision:
1. Apple Valley Elementary School (0.25 miles)
2. Cottonwood Elementary School (0.79 miles)
iii. Because the proposed subdivision is within Transit's service area and near
facilities for school -aged children, sidewalks should be installed along all the
roads throughout the proposed subdivision to accommodate special population
group's accessibility to the bus system.
iv. For Yakima Transit, the proposed development has a relatively low impact on
transit services even if Class 1 permitted duplexes were built on the proposed
lots. No additional transit - related improvements are needed for the proposed
development.
f, Wastewater:
i. Per YMC § 12.03.010, all new lots and development shall be served by a
sanitary sewer line located adjacent to the lot or development site.
ii. Per YMC § 12.030.070, each building containing sanitary facilities shall be
served by a separate and independent private side sewer to the public main.
Branched side sewers serving multiple buildings and properties shall not be
permitted. Single side sewers serving multiple buildings are permitted. Please
identify on the site plan the locations of individual side sewers.
IX. Jurisdiction. Sections 1.42.030, 14.05.050 and 14.20.100 of the Yakima Municipal Code
(YMC) provide that the YPC shall hold a public hearing and submit a recommendation to the
City Council relative to the subdivision criteria listed in Section 14.20.100 of the YMC and in
Chapter 58.17 of the Revised Code of Washington.
X. Preliminary Plat Review Criteria. Section 14.20.100 of the YMC provides that the YPC
shall review a proposed preliminary plat during an open record public hearing to determine
whether the following standards are satisfied:
(1) Subsection 14.20.100(1) -- Consistency with the provisions of the City's Urban Area
Zoning Ordinance: The proposed preliminary plat would be consistent with the intent and
character of the Two - Family Residential (R -2) zoning district set forth in Subsection
15.03.020(C) of the Urban Area Zoning Ordinance (UAZO). The stated intent is to establish and
4

Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
preserve residential neighborhoods for detached single - family dwellings, duplexes and other
uses compatible with the intent of this district; and locate residential development with densities
up to twelve dwelling units per net residential acre in areas receiving a full range of public
services including public water and sewer service, and police and fire protection.
The proposed preliminary plat would be consistent with the use and density requirements of the
R -2 zoning district. It would also be consistent with the following minimum development
requirements set forth in Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO which must be met in order to assure land
use compatibility and promote the public health, safety and welfare:
(a) Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage permitted in the R -2 zoning district is 60%
and all lots will comply with that limitation.
(b) Lot Size: The preliminary plat indicates lot sizes that range from 7,007 square feet
to 15,291 square feet. Table 5 -2 of Ch. 15.05 of the UAZO provides that the minimum lot
size for a single - family dwelling 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 and all proposed lots meet that requirement.
(d) Structure Setbacks: The minimum structure setbacks permitted in residential zoning
districts are intended to provide privacy, light, air and emergency access. Setbacks
along easements and rights -of -way are intended to minimize the impacts from traffic on
adjoining property owners. The applicable minimum setbacks in the R -2 zoning district
will be provided as set forth in Subsection 15.05.020(D) and Table 5 -1 of the UAZO.
(e) Access Re uire& All new development shall have a minimum of 20 feet of lot
frontage upon a public road or be served by an access easement at least 20 feet in
width. All lots within this preliminary plat have the required frontage or will be served by
an easement that is 20 feet wide in accordance with Subsection 15.05.020(H) of the
UAZO.
(2) Subsection 14.20.100(2) -- Consistency with the provisions of the Comprehensive
Plan: The Urban Area Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map III -3 designates the subject
property as suitable for Low Density Residential development. The Medium Density Residential
designation is characterized by a mixture of single - family detached residences and
duplexes, with a variety of other housing types at a residential density ranging between
7.0 and 11.0 dwelling units per acre. The following goals and policies apply to this
preliminary plat application:
Goal 3.1: Provide for a broad distribution of housing in Yakima that meets the
affordability and neighborhood design needs of the public.
Goal 3.2: Build sustainable new neighborhoods
Goal 3.3: Preserve existing neighborhoods
Columbia Ridge Homes, LLC

Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
Policy 3.3..2: Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density
and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood.
(3) Subsection 14.20.100(3) -- Consistency with the provisions of this title, Title 14
entitled "Subdivision Ordinance ": All lots in this preliminary plat will have access upon a
public street; will be provided with all necessary public utilities; will exceed the minimum lot size
for the R -2 zoning district of 6,000 square feet for single - family residences; and will meet or
exceed the minimum lot width of 50 feet as measured at the rear of the required front yard
setback. This review and the recommended conditions are intended to ensure consistency with
the provisions of the City's subdivision ordinance which are more specifically addressed in the
following sections.
(4) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(a) -- Appropriate provisions for public health, safety and
general welfare: The construction of new residential units which will complement adjacent
uses will make appropriate provisions for the public health, safety and general welfare insofar as
there is a need in this community for residences and insofar as this proposed preliminary plat
would be required to comply with all applicable City development standards and all conditions of
approval specified by the City Council.
(5) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(b) -- Appropriate provisions for open spaces: Gailleon Park is
located approximately 1.60 miles from this development and is the closest city park. That
facility, together with lot coverage of 60 percent or less on the lots proposed for this preliminary
plat, will satisfy this plat standard.
(6) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(c) -- Appropriate provisions for drainage ways: Complete
stormwater management and drainage design plans, specifications and calculations must be
submitted pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stormwater Manual and the City of Yakima
Stormwater Management Guide. Any underground injection wells shall be registered with the
Department of Ecology. On -site drainage will be permitted by methods to be reviewed and
approved by the City. The proposed preliminary plat in these ways makes appropriate
provisions for drainage ways.
(7) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(d) -- Appropriate provisions for streets or roads, alleys and
other public ways: The preliminary site plan shows adequate dimensions for street
improvements that comply with City of Yakima Title 12 Development Standards. Sewer and
storm drainage will need to be provided in accordance with City of Yakima standards. These
conditions will make appropriate provisions for streets and other public ways.
(8) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(e) -- Appropriate provisions for transit stops: Yakima Transit
provides service to the general area via stops on Summitview Ave.

(9) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(f) -- Appropriate provisions for potable water supplies,
irrigation and other water suppliers: All lots will be served with public domestic water and
water for fire protection purposes by the Nob Hill Water Association.
(10) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(g) -- Appropriate provisions for sanitary waste disposal:
There will be appropriate provisions for sanitary waste disposal for the proposed preliminary plat
in the form of public sewer service provided in accordance with the City of Yakima's Title 12
standards. Wastewater connection charges shall apply. Each lot shall be served by sanitary
sewer through an individual side sewer connection to the main which shall be installed or shall
have an approved bond in place to secure its installation prior to the recording of the final plat,
and civil engineer design plans shall be submitted and approved by the City of Yakima Engineer
in accordance with YMC Chapter 12.03. The utility easement in which the public pipe is to be
located must be a minimum 16- foot -wide easement, or greater depending on the depth of the
pipe. No septic systems or other method of sewage disposal will be allowed in the proposed
preliminary plat.
(11) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(h) -- Appropriate provisions for parks and recreation:
Appropriate provisions for parks and recreation areas for residents of this proposed preliminary
plat include Gailleon Park which is located approximately 1.60 miles from this development and
is the closest city park.
(12) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(i) -- Appropriate provisions for playgrounds: Appropriate
provisions for playgrounds exist for this proposed preliminary plat due to the size of the
proposed lots and the presence of Gailleon Park is located approximately 1.60 miles from this
development and is the closest city park.
(13) Subsection 14.20.100(4)0) -- Appropriate provisions for schools and schoolgrounds.
The nature of this development and the absence of comments from the School District suggest
that this preliminary plat will not lack appropriate provisions for schools and school grounds.
(14) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(k) -- Appropriate provisions for sidewalks: Since the
proposed plat would have sidewalks along its frontage on public streets in accordance with the
City's Title 12 requirements, the proposed preliminary plat will make appropriate provisions for
sidewalks.
(15) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(1) --Appropriate provisions for other planning features that
assure safe walking conditions for students who walk to and from school: There was no
evidence presented at the hearing of a need for other planning features to be provided within
this preliminary plat in order to make appropriate provisions for safe walking conditions for
students who walk to and from school as the site provides for sidewalk to allow children safe
passage to school or to a school bus stop.

(16) Subsection 14.20.100(5) -- Public use and interest: The evidence indicated that this
proposed preliminary plat, as conditioned, would be consistent with neighboring land uses and
would help serve the residential needs of this area. With the recommended conditions, it will
comply with the City's zoning ordinance, subdivision ordinance and comprehensive plan. It will
also make appropriate and adequate provisions for the public health, safety and general
welfare, open spaces, drainage ways, streets, transit stops, potable water, sanitary waste
disposal, parks and recreation, playgrounds and sidewalks, and is in a location where additional
provisions for schools or for additional planning features for students who walk to and from
school have not been recommended or deemed necessary.
XI. Consistency Analysis under Subsection 16.06.020(B) of the Yakima Municipal Code.
The following analysis involves the consistency of the preliminary plat 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 following items identified in these
conclusions except for issues of code interpretation:
(1) The type of land use contemplated by the proposal (a residential development in an R -2
zoning district) is permitted on this site so long as it complies with 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 Two - Family Residential (R -2) zoning district since the proposed lot
sizes satisfy the zoning ordinance requirements.
(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
ensure that adequate infrastructure and public facilities are available for the proposed
preliminary plat.
(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 which have been
discussed in detail above. With the recommended conditions, the proposed preliminary plat
would be consistent with the development standards of applicable City ordinances.

Area Comprehensive Plan, subdivision ordinance and zoning 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 walk to and from school; and
serves the public use and interest.

PLP #001 -15, and SEPA #028 -15
Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
DOC. INJEx #
Per section 503 of the IFC, an approved fire department turnaround is
required where access roads exceed 150 feet and serve more than 2 single
family dwellings, unless dwellings are equipped with a fire sprinkler system.
Fire hydrants shall be installed minimally every 500 feet along fire department
access roads, which shall provide adequate water supplies in accordance with
the required fire flow of proposed structures. Required fire hydrants shall be
functional prior to the issuance of building permits.
b. Engineering:
i. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.67 and 12.05 new curb, gutter and sidewalk required
within new development. Street section shall conform to standard detail R3.
New sidewalks shall be constructed per standard detail R5.
ii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.64 driveways to be constructed per this chapter and
standard detail R4. Any existing driveway that is abandoned or not used shall be
replaced with standard curb and sidewalk.
iii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.72 an excavation and street break permit shall be
obtained for all work within the public right of way. Refer to chapter 8 for
requirements. Roads less than five years old can be cut, but will cost one
hundred fifty percent of restoration fee with no PCI discount.
iv. Easements will need to be established per YMC Ch. 12.02.
V. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.020 street and right of way widths shall conform to this
section unless otherwise approved. 50' of right of way is required for the new
streets. Summitview Ave. is classified as a Minor Arterial, requiring a total of 80'
of right of way. It appears that there is 40' of right of way along the subject
parcel, which would be adequate.
vi. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.060 temporary dead -end streets shall be provided with
a temporary cul -de -sac at the closed end and the design shall provide for
continuation of the full right -of -way width to the property boundary.
vii. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.080 a street light shall be installed at each street
intersection and at mid -block if the block exceeds five hundred feet in length.
Street lights shall meet the design and placement standards of the city engineer.
Lighting improvements shall become the property of the city of Yakima upon
installation and will thereafter be maintained by the city.
c. Stormwater:
i. For the long plat of the property there are no drainage requirements. However, if
the applicant proceeds with any utility work prior to getting approved civil plans,
an erosion and sediment control plan must be in place before turning any dirt and
approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction.
d. Nob Hill Water:

Summitview Ave. and S. 89th Ave.,
Yakima, WA
DOC. INDEX #
A.A -
" _ Nob Hill Water currently is able to serve domestic water to this development."
e. Transit
i. Yakima Transit currently provides fixed -route bus service along Summitview
Avenue (Route 1) south of this site within the FTA defined walk -to -route distance
of 3/4 of a mile. There are sidewalks along the site's frontage, Summitview.
ii. Yakima Transit provides limited services for school -aged children, including
those that do not qualify for the school district's bussing program, because they
are within a mile of the school. The following schools are located within a mile of
the proposed subdivision:
1. Apple Valley Elementary School (0.25 miles)
2. Cottonwood Elementary School (0.79 miles)
iii. Because the proposed subdivision is within Transit's service area and near
facilities for school -aged children, sidewalks should be installed along all the
roads throughout the proposed subdivision to accommodate special population
group's accessibility to the bus system.
iv. For Yakima Transit, the proposed development has a relatively low impact on
transit services even if Class 1 permitted duplexes were built on the proposed
lots. No additional transit - related improvements are needed for the proposed
development.
f. Wastewater:
i. Per YMC § 12.03.010, all new lots and development shall be served by a
sanitary sewer line located adjacent to the lot or development site.
ii. Per YMC § 12.030.070, each building containing sanitary facilities shall be
served by a separate and independent private side sewer to the public main.
Branched side sewers serving multiple buildings and properties shall not be
permitted. Single side sewers serving multiple buildings are permitted. Please
identify on the site plan the locations of individual side sewers.
IX. Jurisdiction. Sections 1.42.030, 14.05.050 and 14.20.100 of the Yakima Municipal Code
(YMC) provide that the YPC shall hold a public hearing and submit a recommendation to the
City Council relative to the subdivision criteria listed in Section 14.20.100 of the YMC and in
Chapter 58.17 of the Revised Code of Washington.
X. Preliminary Plat Review Criteria. Section 14.20.100 of the YMC provides that the YPC
shall review a proposed preliminary plat during an open record public hearing to determine
whether the following standards are satisfied:
(1) Subsection 14.20.100(1) -- Consistency with the provisions of the City's Urban Area
Zoning Ordinance: The proposed preliminary plat would be consistent with the intent and
character of the Two - Family Residential (R -2) zoning district set forth in Subsection
15.03.020(C) of the Urban Area Zoning Ordinance (UAZO). The stated intent is to establish and

preserve residential neighborhoods for detached single - family dwellings, duplexes and other
uses compatible with the intent of this district; and locate residential development with densities
up to twelve dwelling units per net residential acre in areas receiving a full range of public
services including public water and sewer service, and police and fire protection.
The proposed preliminary plat would be consistent with the use and density requirements of the
R -2 zoning district. It would also be consistent with the following minimum development
requirements set forth in Chapter 15.05 of the UAZO which must be met in order to assure land
use compatibility and promote the public health, safety and welfare:
(a) Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage permitted in the R -2 zoning district is 60%
and all lots will comply with that limitation.
(b) 'Lot Size: The preliminary plat indicates lot sizes that range from 7,007 square feet
to 15,291 square feet. Table 5 -2 of Ch. 15.05 of the UAZO provides that the minimum lot
size for a single - family dwelling 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 and all proposed lots meet that requirement.
(d) Structure Setbacks: The minimum structure setbacks permitted in residential zoning
districts are intended to provide privacy, light, air and emergency access. Setbacks
along easements and rights -of -way are intended to minimize the impacts from traffic on
adjoining property owners. The applicable minimum setbacks in the R -2 zoning district
will be provided as set forth in Subsection 15.05.020(D) and Table 5 -1 of the UAZO.
(e) Access Re uired:. All new development shall have a minimum of 20 feet of lot
frontage upon a public road or be served by an access easement at least 20 feet in
width. All lots within this preliminary plat have the required frontage or will be served by
an easement that is 20 feet wide in accordance with Subsection 15.05.020(H) of the
UAZO.
(2) Subsection 14.20.100(2) -- Consistency with the provisions of the Comprehensive
Plan: The Urban Area Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map III -3 designates the subject
property as suitable for Low Density Residential development. The Medium Density Residential
designation is characterized by a mixture of single - family detached residences and
duplexes, with a variety of other housing types at a residential density ranging between
7.0 and 11.0 dwelling units per acre. The following goals and policies apply to this
preliminary plat application:
Goal 3.1: Provide for a broad distribution of housing in Yakima that meets the
affordability and neighborhood design needs of the public.
Goal 3.2: Build sustainable new neighborhoods
Goal 3.3: Preserve existing neighborhoods

Polio,,: Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density
and aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood.
(3) Subsection 14.20.100(3) -- Consistency with the provisions of this title, Title 14
entitled "Subdivision Ordinance ": All lots in this preliminary plat will have access upon a
public street; will be provided with all necessary public utilities; will exceed the minimum lot size
for the R -2 zoning district of 6,000 square feet for single - family residences; and will meet or
exceed the minimum lot width of 50 feet as measured at the rear of the required front yard
setback. This review and the recommended conditions are intended to ensure consistency with
the provisions of the City's subdivision ordinance which are more specifically addressed in the
following sections.
(4) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(a) -- Appropriate provisions for public health, safety and
general welfare: The construction of new residential units which will complement adjacent
uses will make appropriate provisions for the public health, safety and general welfare insofar as
there is a need in this community for residences and insofar as this proposed preliminary plat
would be required to comply with all applicable City development standards and all conditions of
approval specified by the City Council.
(5) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(b) -- Appropriate provisions for open spaces: Gailleon Park is
located approximately 1.60 miles from this development and is the closest city park. That
facility, together with lot coverage of 60 percent or less on the lots proposed for this preliminary
plat, will satisfy this plat standard.
(6) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(c) -- Appropriate provisions for drainage ways: Complete
stormwater management and drainage design plans, specifications and calculations must be
submitted pursuant to the Eastern Washington Stormwater Manual and the City of Yakima
Stormwater Management Guide. Any underground injection wells shall be registered with the
Department of Ecology. On -site drainage will be permitted by methods to be reviewed and
approved by the City. The proposed preliminary plat in these ways makes appropriate
provisions for drainage ways.
(7) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(d) -- Appropriate provisions for streets or roads, alleys and
other public ways: The preliminary site plan shows adequate dimensions for street
improvements that comply with City of Yakima Title 12 Development Standards. Sewer and
storm drainage will need to be provided in accordance with City of Yakima standards. These
conditions will make appropriate provisions for streets and other public ways.
(8) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(e) -- Appropriate provisions for transit stops: Yakima Transit
provides service to the general area via stops on Summitview Ave.

Yakima, WA n
(9) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(f) -- Appropriate provisions for potable water supplies,
irrigation and other water suppliers: All lots will be served with public domestic water and
water for fire protection purposes by the Nob Hill Water Association.
(10) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(g) -- Appropriate provisions for sanitary waste disposal:
There will be appropriate provisions for sanitary waste disposal for the proposed preliminary plat
in the form of public sewer service provided in accordance with the City of Yakima's Title 12
standards. Wastewater connection charges shall apply. Each lot shall be served by sanitary
sewer through an individual side sewer connection to the main which shall be installed or shall
have an approved bond in place to secure its installation prior to the recording of the final plat,
and civil engineer design plans shall be submitted and approved by the City of Yakima Engineer
in accordance with YMC Chapter 12.03. The utility easement in which the public pipe is to be
located must be a minimum 16- foot -wide easement, or greater depending on the depth of the
pipe. No septic systems or other method of sewage disposal will be allowed in the proposed
preliminary plat.
(11) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(h) -- Appropriate provisions for parks and recreation:
Appropriate provisions for parks and recreation areas for residents of this proposed preliminary
plat include Gailleon Park which is located approximately 1.60 miles from this development and
is the closest city park.
(12) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(1) -- Appropriate provisions for playgrounds: Appropriate
provisions for playgrounds exist for this proposed preliminary plat due to the size of the
proposed lots and the presence of Gailleon Park is located approximately 1.60 miles from this
development and is the closest city park.
(13) Subsection 14.20.100(4)0) -- Appropriate provisions for schools and schoolgrounds.
The nature of this development and the absence of comments from the School District suggest
that this preliminary plat will not lack appropriate provisions for schools and school grounds.
(14) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(k) -- Appropriate provisions for sidewalks: Since the
proposed plat would have sidewalks along its frontage on public streets in accordance with the
City's Title 12 requirements, the proposed preliminary plat will make appropriate provisions for
sidewalks.
(15) Subsection 14.20.100(4)(1) --Appropriate provisions for other planning features that
assure safe walking conditions for students who walk to and from school: There was no
evidence presented at the hearing of a need for other planning features to be provided within
this preliminary plat in order to make appropriate provisions for safe walking conditions for
students who walk to and from school as the site provides for sidewalk to allow children safe
passage to school or to a school bus stop.

Yakima, WA
(16) Subsection 14.20.100(5) -- Public use and interest: The evidence indicated that this
proposed preliminary plat, as conditioned, would be consistent with neighboring land uses and
would help serve the residential needs of this area. With the recommended conditions, it will
comply with the City's zoning ordinance, subdivision ordinance and comprehensive plan. It will
also make appropriate and adequate provisions for the public health, safety and general
welfare, open spaces, drainage ways, streets, transit stops, potable water, sanitary waste
disposal, parks and recreation, playgrounds and sidewalks, and is in a location where additional
provisions for schools or for additional planning features for students who walk to and from
school have not been recommended or deemed necessary.
XI. Consistency Analysis under Subsection 16.06.020(B) of the Yakima Municipal Code.
The following analysis involves the consistency of the preliminary plat 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 following items identified in these
conclusions except for issues of code interpretation:
(1) The type of land use contemplated by the proposal (a residential development in an R -2
zoning district) is permitted on this site so long as it complies with 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 Two - Family Residential (R -2) zoning district since the proposed lot
sizes satisfy the zoning ordinance requirements.
(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
ensure that adequate infrastructure and public facilities are available for the proposed
preliminary plat.
(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 which have been
discussed in detail above. With the recommended conditions, the proposed preliminary plat
would be consistent with the development standards of applicable City ordinances.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the foregoing Findings, the YPC reaches the following Conclusions:

Area Comprehensive Plan, subdivision ordinance and zoning 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

B. Comprehensive Plan.
The 2025 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map-1,11-3 designate the subject
property as suitable for Medium Density Residential development. The Medium Density
Residential designation is characterized as "Characterized by a mixture of single - family
detached residences and duplexes, with a variety of other housing types at a residential
density ranging between 7.0 and 11.0 dwelling units per acre ". This proposed
preliminary plat for single - family residences has a density of approximately 3.30 dwelling
units per net residential acre, which is lower than that designation.
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 3.1: Provide for a broad distribution of housing in Yakima that meets the
affordability and neighborhood design needs of the public.
Goal 3.2: Build sustainable new neighborhoods
Goal 3.3: Preserve existing neighborhoods
Policy 3.3.2: Ensure that new development is compatible in scale, style, density and
aesthetic quality to an established neighborhood.
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 goals and policies intended
to promote the purpose of the UAZO. Subsection 15.03.020(C) of the UAZO indicates
that the intent of the Two - Family Residential (R -2) zoning district is to establish and
preserve residential neighborhoods for primarily detached single - family dwellings,
duplexes and other compatible uses and to locate residential development with densities
up to twelve dwelling units per net residential acre in areas served by public water and
public sewer.
D. Environmental Review.
This project underwent a State Environmental Policy Act review because it did not fall
below the City of Yakima's flexible threshold for SEPA, as established in YMC 6.88.070.
Furthermore, on September 28, 2015, the City of Yakima completed its environmental
review of the Preliminary Plat by issuing a Determination of Non - Significance on the
proposal which was not appealed during the 14 -day appeal period that ended on
October 12, 2015.

6. Public Comment:
Three public comments from various environmental state agencies and irrigation districts
were received during the open comment period for this proposal (summarized below in
the DST Review section of this report).
7. Development Services Team (DST) Review: The proposal was reviewed by the DST
team on September 8, 2015. Final comments of the DST members are summarized
below.
a. Codes:
i. Per section 503 of the IFC, an approved fire department turnaround is
required where access roads exceed 150 feet and serve more than 2 single
family dwellings, unless dwellings are equipped with a fire sprinkler system.
ii. Fire hydrants shall be installed minimally every 500 feet along fire department
access roads, which shall provide adequate water supplies in accordance with
the required fire flow of proposed structures. Required fire hydrants shall be
functional prior to the issuance of building permits.
b. Engineering:
i. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.67 and 12.05 new curb, gutter and sidewalk required
within new development. Street section shall conform to standard detail R3.
New sidewalks shall be constructed per standard detail R5.
ii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.64 driveways to be constructed per this chapter and
standard detail R4. Any existing driveway that is abandoned or not used shall be
replaced with standard curb and sidewalk.
iii. Pursuant to YMC Ch. 8.72 an excavation and street break permit shall be
obtained for all work within the public right of way. Refer to chapter 8 for
3
INDEX
requirements. Roads less than five years old can be cut, but will cost one
hundred fifty percent of restoration fee with no PCI discount.
iv. Easements will need to be established per YMC Ch. 12.02.
V. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.020 street and right of way widths shall conform to this
section unless otherwise approved. 50' of right of way is required for the new
streets. Summitview Ave. is classified as a Minor Arterial, requiring a total of 80'
of right of way. It appears that there is 40' of right of way along the subject
parcel, which would be adequate.
vi. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.060 temporary dead -end streets shall be provided with
a temporary cul -de -sac at the closed end and the design shall provide for
continuation of the full right -of -way width to the property boundary.
vii. Pursuant to YMC § 12.06.080 a street light shall be installed at each street
intersection and at mid -block if the block exceeds five hundred feet in length.
Street lights shall meet the design and placement standards of the city engineer.
Lighting improvements shall become the property of the city of Yakima upon
installation and will thereafter be maintained by the city.
c. Stormwater:
i. For the long plat of the property there are no drainage requirements. However, if
the applicant proceeds with any utility work prior to getting approved civil plans,
an erosion and sediment control plan must be in place before turning any dirt and
approved by the City of Yakima Surface Water Engineer prior to construction.
d. Nob Hill Water:
"... Nob Hill Water currently is able to serve domestic water to this development."
e. Transit
i. Yakima Transit currently provides fixed -route bus service along Summitview
Avenue (Route 1) south of this site within the FTA defined walk -to -route distance
of 3/4 of a mile. There are sidewalks along the site's frontage, Summitview.
ii. Yakima Transit provides limited services for school -aged children, including
those that do not qualify for the school district's bussing program, because they
are within a mile of the school. The following schools are located within a mile of
the proposed subdivision:
1. Apple Valley Elementary School (0.25 miles)
2. Cottonwood Elementary School (0.79 miles)
iii. Because the proposed subdivision is within Transit's service area and near
facilities for school -aged children, sidewalks should be installed along all the
roads throughout the proposed subdivision to accommodate special population
group's accessibility to the bus system.
iv. For Yakima Transit, the proposed development has a relatively low impact on
transit services even if Class 1 permitted duplexes were built on the proposed
lots. No additional transit - related improvements are needed for the proposed
development.
f. Wastewater:
i. Per YMC § 12.03.010, all new lots and development shall be served by a
sanitary sewer line located adjacent to the lot or development site.
ii. Per YMC § 12.030.070, each building containing sanitary facilities shall be
served by a separate and independent private side sewer to the public main.
Branched side sewers serving multiple buildings and properties shall not be

PLAT PLAN AN C ECKLIST & INSTRUCTIONS
In Order For Application To Be Determined Complete, A Plat Plan Must Be Completed And Returned.
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.
Chec
Note: Planning Division or reviewing official may require additional information to clarify the proposal, assess its
impacts, or determine compliance with the YMC and other laws and regulations.

PARCEL NOs:181319 -24402
COMMENTS:
Yakima Transit currently provides fixed -route bus service along Summitview Avenue (Route 1) south of
this site within the FTA defined walk -to -route distance of 3/4 of a mile. There are sidewalks along the site's
frontage, Summitview.
Yakima Transit provides limited services for school -aged children, including those that do not qualify for
the school district's bussing program, because they are within a mile of the school. The following schools
are located within a mile of the proposed subdivision:
• Apple Valley Elementary School (0.25 miles)
• Cottonwood Elementary School (0.79 miles)
Because the proposed subdivision is within Transit's service area and near facilities for school -aged
children, sidewalks should be installed along all the roads throughout the proposed subdivision to
accommodate special population group's accessibility to the bus system.
For Yakima Transit, the proposed development has a relatively low impact on transit services even if Class
1 permitted duplexes were built on the proposed lots. No additional transit - related improvements are
needed for the proposed development.
Transportation Goals and Policies:
Goal T -8.2 - Policy 1: Determine the need for accommodating special population groups at the Transit Stop
Improvement Project level such as accessibility and ADA requirements, concentration of school age or elderly
residents or other unique land use issues. (Yakima Urban Area Transportation Plan 2025, Ch. 8, p.3)
Goal T -8.2 - Policy 2: Coordinate Transit Stops and other facilities at the Project level, including the need for
additional or relocated Transit Stops, Bus Pull -outs, Shelters or other special improvements. (Yakima Urban Area
Transportation Plan 2025, Ch. 8, p.3)

RIDGE HOMES LLC — Rainier Court
Project Description — Proposed long plat that will subdivide 3.64 acres into 12 Single - Family
residential lots in the R -2 zoning district.
This project requires Title 12 improvements, including but not limited to the following:
8.67 and 12.05 — New curb, gutter and sidewalk required within new development. Street section
shall conform to standard detail R3. New sidewalks shall be constructed per standard detail R5.
8.64 — Driveways to be constructed per this chapter and standard detail R4. Any existing driveway
that is abandoned or not used shall be replaced with standard curb and sidewalk.
8.72 — An excavation and street break permit shall be obtained for all work within the public right
of way. Refer to chapter 8 for requirements. Roads less than five years old can be cut, but will cost
one hundred fifty percent of restoration fee with no PCI discount.
12.02 — Easements will need to be established per this chapter.
12.06.020 — Street and right of way widths shall conform to this section unless otherwise approved.
50' of right of way is required for the new streets. Summitview Ave. is classified as a Minor
Arterial, requiring a total of 80' of right of way. It appears that there is 40' of right of way along
the subject parcel, which would be adequate.
12.06.060 - Temporary dead -end streets shall be provided with a temporary cul -de -sac at the closed
end and the design shall provide for continuation of the full right -of -way width to the property
boundary.
12.06.080 Street lighting.
A street light shall be installed at each street intersection and at mid -block if the block exceeds five
hundred feet in length. Street lights shall meet the design and placement standards of the city
engineer. Lighting improvements shall become the property of the city of Yakima upon installation
and will thereafter be maintained by the city
N. 88`h Ave., between Summitview Ave. and Juanita D., shall be constructed to a minimum
standard residential street section per standard detail R3, with a minimum 20' wide pavement
width (excluding curb /gutter and sidewalk). The connection of N. 88`h Ave. to Summitview Ave.
shall be modified from the existing residential driveway to a typical street intersection connection
with curb radiuses as approved.
All frontage improvements shall be completed prior to Certificate of Occupancy. Civil engineering
plans for public improvements shall be approved prior to issuance of building permits.

d r
may,, YAKIMA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 6.88
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), RCW Ch. 43.21C, requires all governmental agencies to consider the
environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared
for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist
is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts
from the ro osal„ if it can be done and to h0 L) the aaciwx decide whether an EIS is rc.( uircd.
ffil Ell 211, M111 11 ME I
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Governmental agencies use
this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an
EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must
answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer
the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the
answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply ". Complete answers to the
questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning,
shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies
can assist you. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time
or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental
effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional
information rea^sonabl r related to delewrminin -g if there ni be si ariif "icaml adverse im pact,
Complete this checklist for non - project proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." IN
ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D).
For non - project actions, the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be

Subject: Notice of Decision for Transportation Concurrency
12 Single Family Homes
Dear Applicant,
Enclosed is the Decision for the Transportation Concurrency Analysis of the proposed
development of 12 Single Family Homes located at 8911 Summitview Avenue, within
the City of Yakima, Washington. This development has been APPROVED for
Concurrency Analysis. Concurrency review determined that reserve capacity is
available on all impacted arterial streets. Concurrency review does not evaluate impact
to local access streets or street intersections. This review does not include safety or site
design issues which will be addressed at the project review level of zoning and SEPA.
This review concluded that the proposed development will not exceed the capacity of
the arterial street system and reserve capacity exists on all impacted arterial streets.
Please review the enclosed report. You may appeal the Findings of this report or request
Administrative Reconsideration within fifteen (15) days from the date of mailing of this
Notice. Appeal forms and procedures are available at the Department of Community
and Economic Development. If you have any questions, please call me at (509) 576-
6797.
Sincerely,

Summary of Impact:
The applicant, Columbia Ridge Homes, proposes to construct 12 single family homes at 8911
Summitview Avenue, within the city of Yakima, Washington. Traffic from this new development
will enter the Arterial Street system on Summitview Avenue. City of Yakima Administrative
procedures for Concurrency Analysis use the PM Peak hour trip of the adjacent street for the

Hour is assessed as 8.7% of total Average Daily Traffic (ADT). Peak hour reserve capacity includes
any vehicle trips previously assigned under the Concurrency Ordinance. City of Yakima
Transportation Concurrency assesses arterial street segment capacity only and does not address
intersection capacity.

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.
