AGENDA STATEMENT

Item No. 3.
For Meeting of: April 26, 2018
ITEM TITLE: Consideration of Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone for
approximately 2 acres of city -owned land south of S R24 near the
Wastewater Treatment Plant
SUBMITTED BY: Cliff Moore, City Manager
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
As mentioned at the last Council Briefing meeting, the City of Yakima requests authorization from
Council to file a Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone for approximately 2 acres of land
south of SR 24 near the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) complex. Should this action be
approved, it would go to the Planning Commission for study and a recommendation to Council. A
possible future use could be as a site for a homeless shelter. This would be a non -project
specific action and no provider would be guaranteed access to the parcel without first going
through a City managed RFP process. Although not the same location as the previous Camp
Hope, this region has been identified as the most feasible City -owned site for a Homeless facility.
This site is not planned for WWTP expansion and is served by an arterial Street.
