Chapter Contents
CL
Nonproject actions are governmental actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use
or modification of the environment, or that will govern a series of connected actions. This includes, but is not limited to, the adoption
or amendment of comprehensive plans, transportation plans, ordinances, rules, and regulations [WAC 197-11-704(2)(b)). Any
proposal that meets the definition of a nonproject action must be reviewed under SEPA, unless specifically exempted.
Nonproject review allows agencies to consider the "big picture" by conducting comprehensive analysis, addressing cumulative
impacts, possible alternatives, and mitigation measures. This has become increasingly important in recent years for several reasons:
Provides the basis for future project decisions: Environmental analysis at the nonproject stage forms the basis for later project review,
providing greater predictability.
Expedites project analysis and decisions: The more detailed and complete the environmental analysis during the nonproject stage, the
less review needed during project review, Project review is able to focus on only those environmental issues not adequately addressed
during the nonproject stage.
4.1. Geiner-M Guidance for Nonproject Action,;
The procedural requirements for SEPA review of a nonproject proposal are basically the same as a projmt proposal. Environmental
review starts as early in the process as possible when there is sufficient information to analyze the Probable environmental impacts of
the proposal. The first step is usually to complete an environmental checklist (including Part D, Supplemental Sheet for Nonproject
Activities), unless the lead agency has already determined that an environmental impact statement is needed or SEPA has already
been completed.
Review of a nonproject proposal should include a consideration of other existing regulations and Plans, and any under development
For example, during development of a critical area ordinance, the agency should consider the retaitJorrshillp to the Clean Water Act,
Shoreline Management Act, and similar regulations.
If the nonproject action is a comprehensive plan or similar proposal that will govern future project development, the probable impacts
need to be considered of the future development that would be allowed. For example, environmental anatyms of a zone designation
should analyze the likely impacts of the development allowed within that zone. The more specific the analysis at this point, the less
erwWonmental review needed when a project permit application is submitted.
Whenever possible, the proposal should be described in terms of alternative means of accomplishing an objective [WAC 197-11-060
(3)(a)j. For exampfe, a statewide plan for rise of chemicals to treat aquatic vegetation could be. described as a plan to control aquatic
vegetation. This would encourage the review of various alternatives for treating vegetation in addition to the use of chemicals. This
might include a review of biological or mechanical methods, or a combination of the various methods,
Environmental review of nonproject actions by GMA cities and counties have addMonal specific guidance, and requiremerills, discussed
In section 7.
4.2Cofirliteints of: a Nonproject EUS
In most instances, the development of a nonproject action (i.e. plan or policy) involves an analysis of alternatives and the potential
consequences of future project actions. Since an EIS also evaluates alternatives and probable impacts, it should be possible to
combine the EIS with the analysis of the nonproject action and issue an integrated document.
Agencies have great flexibility in formatting a nonproject EIS and are encouraged to combine the EIS with the planning document.
The EIS should discuss impacts and alternatives with the level of detail appropriate to the scope of the nonproject proposal. Although
the format is flexible, the EIS must include a cover letter or memo, a fact sheet, a table of contents, and a summary.
In preparing a nonproject EIS the following areas should be considered for inclusion-,
Background and Objectives
Background of the issue, including the purpose and need for action.
Legislative authority or mandate.
• Statement of the primary objective.
Relationship to ongoing and future regulatory and planning efforts.

INDUSTRIAL
Industrial areas include large and small scale manufacturing plants, warehousing and
distribution facilities. The agricultural industry remains the largest economic sector in
Yakima County—including food processing, packaging supplies and fruit packing and
storage—remain core industries within the Yakima Urban Area. (Page III -10)
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
Industrial
The Industrial designation is a range of activities, including construction businesses,
manufacturing, transportation, communication, utilities, and wholesale and warehouse
activities, which may include some accessory office and retail use. (Page III -16)
COMP PLAN GOALS AND POLICIES
Goals and Policies will serve two principal purposes: to guide development decisions in
the UGA, such as rezone requests, development reviews, etc. or to outline specific
actions or programs that implement the Plan. The latter are presented in Chapter II
Action Plan, both as a means of implementation and to meet the mitigation requirements
of this integrated SEPA/GMA document.
M-1—Light Industrial Zoning District
GOAL 3.13 PROVIDE SUFFICIENT AND SUITABLE LAND FOR INDUSTRIAL
USES TO HELP CREATE JOB OPPORTUNITIES AND TO PROMOTE
ECONOMIC GROWTH.
Policies:
3.13.1 Locate industries in areas where public utilities are available and have adequate
transportation access.
3.13.2 New industrial development should be located in areas that take advantage of
access to I-82, Highway 12, SR -24, and existing rail and airport facilities.
3.13.3 Encourage infill and promote efficient utilization of vacant land within areas that
are designated for industrial uses.
3.13.4 Encourage development of compact, small-scale high quality industrial parks
through Industrial Planned Development (Industrial PD).
3.13.5 Allow high quality industrial park or Industrial PD for light industrial uses to be
located adjacent to residential neighborhoods, with adequate buffers.
3.13.6 New storage, warehousing, and light industrial development shall be located in
clusters with existing development.
3.13.7 Industrial uses which locate adjacent to residential areas should use effective
landscaping of living plant vegetation such as evergreen trees and brushes, open
space or other design controls to mitigate noise, glare, and other impacts
associated with the uses to ensure that their location will not adversely affect the
residential areas.
Zo,nina I ermit on
Light Industrial District (M-1)
The intent of the light industrial district is to:
1. Establish and preserve areas near designated truck routes, freeways, and the
railroad for light industrial uses;
2. Direct truck traffic onto designated truck routes and away fiom residential streets;
and,
3. Minimize conflicts between uses in the light industrial district and surrounding
land uses.
The light industrial district provides areas for light manufacturing, processing, research,
and wholesale trade, storage, and distribution facilities. Uses permitted in this district
should not generate noise levels, light, odor, or fumes that would constitute a nuisance or
hazard.
Planning Division Staff" Preliminary Review
The subject property is currently vacant, and surrounded by industrial uses, including
large industrial facilities for the processing and packing of fruit and other agricultural
products,
Potential range of uses allowed in the M-1 zoning district (shown in YMC Title 15 Table
4-1) include, but are not limited to:
Revised 2014 Summary of CPA Amendment Requests- v.s. 71312014 2
-agricultural uses (i.e. buildings, storage, sales, processing, packaging, product
support, etc.), public facilities (facilities for city utilities, transit, police, fire,
ambulance, street maintenance, etc.), parks and other recreational facilities, indoor
sport facilities, manufacturing of a variety of goods (i.e. aircraft parts, retail,
cement and concrete plants, chemical, electrical and medical products, fabricated
metal products, machinery, food, meat, poultry and dairy products processing,
etc.), heavy equipment storage, Laundromats, lumber yards, nurseries, recycling
centers, rental vehicles and equipment, service stations, shooting ranges,
warehouses, and wholesale trade facilities.
The surrounding industrial areas are growing, including an industrial waste line that was
installed recently. This location is prime for being in close proximity to truck routes,
fi•eeways, and the railroad.

GENERAL COMMERCIAL
Commercial areas include retail establishments and commercial services.
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
General Commercial
General Commercial provides a wide variety of commercial retail and services that are
heavily dependent on convenient vehicle access along major travel routes. General
Commercial land uses may include those uses identified in Neighborhood Commercial or
Community Commercial, but do not serve only adjacent neighborhoods. General
Commercial includes uses such as fast food restaurants, auto -oriented services and other
commercial services. The City has designated these areas with the intent that each will
be intensively developed within designated boundaries and that undesirable strip
commercial development is avoided. ("Strip Commercial" development is usually
Revised 2014 Summary of CPA Amendment Requests- v.s. 7/3/2014
described as commercial properties developed along a street in linear fashion (as opposed
to the downtown or malls), where individual driveways, separated parking lots, different
building designs and access points, can lead to problems including traffic safety, shopper
confusion, higher failure rates among businesses, poor aesthetics, etc). (Page III -15; 16)

Policies:
3.10.1 General commercial uses and services that are heavily dependent on convenient
vehicle access shall be located along major travel routes.
3.10.2 Discourage new strip commercial development. Strip commercial land uses shall
only be allowed as infill of existing strip commercial areas, and will not extend
the existing strip commercial areas.
3.10.3 Encourage the "infill"/new development within existing commercial districts to
share access and parking with adjacent commercial development to minimize
multiple curb cuts.
3.10.4 Improve the appearance of existing commercial strips by encouraging better
landscaping in pedestrian sidewalks and parking lots, and fewer signs and
billboards.
3.10.5 Improve the appearance of commercial corridors by encouraging new
development to place parking lots behind buildings, or along the side of the
buildings.
3.10.6 Require a development plan if the proposed development exceeds five acres in
size.
Zonine Definition
General Commercial District (GC)
The purpose of the general commercial district is to accommodate wholesale and retail
activities with some high-density residential development. This district is primarily
located near and along major arterials as designated in the Yakima Urban Area
Comprehensive Plan. Like the CBD district, a variety of land uses are permitted.
However, the intensity of development is intended to be less than the CBD district.
Planning Division Staff Preliniinar review
Revised 2014 Summary of CPA Amendment Requests- v.s. 71312014 4
The subject property is currently built out by a combination of houses, and an auto
wrecking facility. In general the application is conflicting because non -project Comp
Plan Amendments (CPAs) and rezones are typically not associated with proposals
that discuss the expansion of existing businesses, however, this application includes
the intended expansion of an existing nearby agricultural facility, and support
facilities. As such, our initial review includes areas of concern with the compatibility
between the agricultural support services and the surrounding residential uses.
Mitigation measures to reduce incompatibilities, such as noise, light glare, may be
required in the form of buffering, and site screening. Planning Division Staff is
looking into these concerns.
In general, this trending change from residential to a commercial use could be
considered to be chipping away at the residential uses, and could be considered strip
commercial as it spreads in a linear fashion along E Viola Ave.
As specified above, the General Commercial district includes most commercial, and
retail uses and therefore all of the uses listed in Table 4-1 as a Class (1), (2), or (3)
under the GC district have the potential to locate here.

Plannin Division Staff Preliminary review
Revised 2014 Summary of CPA Amendment Requests- v.s. 7/3/2014 6
The subject property is a single parcel that is part of a neighborhood in the vicinity of
N 5th Avenue and W "D" Street. It is a corner lot, but mostly surrounded by abutting
residential uses.
This parcel is only .34 acres in size, and since there is no abutting commercial it
would be considered a "spot zone", which is not supported by the Yakima Urban
Area Comprehensive Plan or the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance.
The Planning Division has noted that there is a limited supply of R-3—Multi- family
zoning and available high density residential properties in the City of Yakima. As
this proposal continues to be processed, staff will provide an analysis of existing
residential land uses and future demands, which may determine the need to preserve
the existing high density residential lands.
As specified above, the General Commercial district includes most commercial, and
retail uses and therefore all of the uses listed in Table 4-1 as a Class (1), (2), or (3)
under the GC district have the potential to locate here.

PART IV - COMPREHENSIVE PLAN NARRATIVIA iy..
A Does your proposal address circumstances that have changsd since the last
time the relevant corn rehensive lan or teat was considered if so, how:
Yes, this proposal addresses circumstances which have changed since the original
comprehensive plan was adopted and the most relevant comprehensive plan update.
Since the time of the original and updated comprehensive plan adoption, Washington
Fruit & Produce Company has developed approximately 25 acres of property which abuts
this proposal to the east and is continuing to expand into areas which were rezoned
approximately 2 years ago. The existing structural development consists of a fruit
packing facility and associated storage facilities on approximately 69 acres. To further
expand its operation and retain property for future growth, Plymouth Ranch, LL, a
subsidiary of Washington Fruit & Produce Company has acquired the approximate 30
acres which lie west of it, and are the subject of this request. Due to growth in the fruit
industry, the property owner has had to look at expansion plans. Properties that would
meet the needs of the company are only available to the west, however, they are
designated Regional Commercial, which does not permit the expansion of the facility due
to improper zoning. The existing processing facility and many of it storage facilities
currently lay just north of River Road and expansion is currently limited to a northerly
and westerly direction. Therefore, the property owner had the foresight to purchase the
property to the west for future expansion.
The subject property was once of portion of property that was slated for construction of a
Regional Mall referred to as River Pointe Landing. However, due to the poor economy
and other factors the mall was never constructed and the property has been sold off in
pieces over the last couple of years. A change in the zoning of the Mill Site Property
(aka Boise Cascade Property) from industrial use to commercial use has further eroded
the potential for industrial users to locate on large industrial properties.
Other changes in circumstances include the introduction of the dedicated industrial
wastewater sewer line in this area and the widening of River Road as it serves this
property between North 6'h Avenue and North 16"' Avenue. These changes in
circumstances have made this property desirable for industrial development.
Based on the above findings, there have been substantial changes in circumstances which
warrant a change in the comprehensive land use and zoning of the property to
accommodate future industrial growth.
B. hoes vour ro osal bett r implement a plicabIg coag rehensive plan voliLles
than the current relevant cora rehensive plan, map or text" if so howl"
Yes, this proposal better implements applicable comprehensive plan policies than the
current relevant comprehensive plan map because the change will permit an existing
business to expand its existing facility, instead of having to have several disjointed
portions of the facility spread out at different locations or relocate the entire operation to
another area. This proposal better implements the comprehensive plan policies because it
helps consolidate a single facility at a single location.
The proposal better implements the applicable plan policies because it meets the
following goals and policies:
Goal 3.13 — Provide sufficient and suitable land for industrial uses to help create job
opportunities and to promote economic growth.
Policy 3.13.1— Locate industries in areas where public facilities are available and have
adequate transportation access.
Policy 3.13.6 -- New storage, warehousing, and light industrial; development shall be
located in clusters with existing development.
C. Does you,r rol2osal correct an o vious ma in eNrror? If sohow7004W, YOcv
IIy OIn
No, it does not appear that an obvious mapping error occurred. This is a voluntary
request on behalf of the property owner, which complies with the comprehensive plan
and promotes economic development.
11. Does ,ur proposal address an identified deficienly in the Com rehensive
Plan? if, so what is the deficignS19
This proposal does involve an identified deficiency in the comprehensive plan. The
deficiency deals with the fact that there is a need for areas of expansion for established
uses. Specifically, many industrial areas are located in existing clusters that do not
permit expansion beyond their current borders because the cluster is fully developed. It
is therefore, necessary to expand into other zones provided it is in conjunction with
expansion of existing uses. Currently, the City of Yakima has no industrial zoned
property in this area which permits the expansion of existing uses at this specific location.
The existing facility only has one logical way to expand, and, that is to the north and
west. The subject property is vacant and no uses are being displaced. This request
fulfills that deficiency by providing additional lands for future industrial growth that can
be accommodated with infrastructure and supports a project permitted in the Light
Industrial Zoning District.

Yes, this proposal is consistent with RCW 36.70A.100. This application is part of the
annual comprehensive plan update for the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The
City of Yakima coordinates this update with Yakima County for consistency between the
jurisdictions.
Is the groposed Conigrehensive Plan Amendment eonsistent with the Growth
Mana gment Act LGMAJ, B.C°► ' Ch -36.70A, and the Yakima Couant -wide
Planning PolicCSP If so howl'
Yes, this proposal is consistent with the Growth Management Act and the Yakima
County -wide Planning Policy because the proposal directs urban growth to an existing
urban area (within City Limits first) and encourages infill in an area where all urban level
services and facilities are currently provided or can easily be extended. The proposal
reduces sprawl and is served with an adequate transportation system. This proposal also
encourages economic development in the urban area and provides goods and services for? f',
the surrounding neighborhood and general Yakima Area.

C. Have the cumulative impacts of all comprehensive lan amendments beeni 1"y
considered in the evaluation of the proposed amendment? if so how?
The cumulative impacts of all comprehensive plan amendments are determined by the
jurisdiction processing the proposed amendment. In this situation, the impact will result
in a shift away from commercial uses to industrial uses. However, the impact should be
minimal because the property under consideration is well suited for the intended use, as it
provides property large enough for industrial uses and is served with all necessary
infrastructures to support the requested change. Additionally, the development potential
of the Mill Site Property (aka Boise Cascade property) will more than compensate for the
loss of this property's change from commercial zoning to industrial zoning.

regarding the property, including, the status of existing land use access to
sever and water as well as the availabili of ublic facilities suclti as schools

The subject property is currently vacant. All urban services and facilities are available to
the property, or can easily be extended to the property, as needed.

I.How is the su "ect propesuitsble for uses permitted under the R012osed
zoning?
The property is well suited for all Light Industrial uses permitted under the proposed
zoning. The property is flat and is currently served with all necessary infrastructure and
public facilities. Adjoining property to the east is currently owned and being developed
with Washington Fruit and Produce Company's fruit processing facility and associated
storage buildings. The intent behind this rezone is for the purpose of further expanding
that facility. The proposed rezone is to benefit that company and permits it to expand at a
single contiguous site. The project also benefits the City of Yakima by providing a
consolidated fruit processing facility, which prides jobs to the residents of the
community.
What is the status of the existing land use?
The subject property consists of approximately 30 acres, in 3 parcels. The property is
currently vacant and has no structures located on it. All urban services and facilities are
available to the property, or can easily be extended to the property, as needed.
J. How is the rezone re west in com lian a with and or how does the re uest
deviate from the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan?
The rezone request is in compliance with the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan
because it meets the intent behind the text of the plan as it deals with the Industrial
definition. Specifically, as defined by the comprehensive plan, this proposal and general
area meets the intent of the industrial designation because the Industrial designation is a
"range of activities, including construction businesses, manufacturing, transportation,
communication, utilities, and wholesale and warehouse activities, which may include
some accessory office and retail use. "
This proposal meets that definition and is further supported by the following goals and
policies:
Goal 3.1.3 — Provide sufficient and suitable land for industrial uses to help create job
opportunities and to promote economic growth.
Policy 3.13.1— Locate industries in areas where public facilities are available and have
adequate transportation access.
Policy 3.13.6 — New storage, warehousing, and light industrial; development shall be
located in clusters with existing development.
K. Are there adequate public facilities such as traffic capacity, sever services
potable water-, draina a schools fire and olice services and other
public services and infrastructure existing,ort the and around the su `ect pMertyl
Yes, there are adequate public facilities to serve this proposal. The property lies north of
River Road, a 3 -lane hard surfaced collector/arterial. The roadway has adequate capacity
for future industrial growth and has been designed with this growth in mind. Access to
the site is exceptional and can gain access to major urban arterials and the highway
system with ease. The property is served with all other infrastructure including domestic
water, sanitary sewer, electricity, telephone and any other needed utilities. Utilities not
adjacent to the site can easily be extended to serve these properties. Additionally, the site
is protected by the Yakima Police and Fire Departments.
Are the existing public facilities capable of supporting the most intensive use of the
new (requested) zone? If not, what mitigating measures are going to be
implemented to address any short falls in public services that may exist?
Yes, this property can be served with the existing facilities capable of supporting the
most intensive uses, as the site is surrounded by a 27 -inch sewer main and 12 -inch water
main. If any service or facility deficiency exists in the delivery of services, necessary
mitigation will take place by the developer to ensure adequate public services and
facilities are in place at his/her/their expense through land use concurrency requirements �k
W�
L. How is the groposed, zone change compatible with the existing nei hbo CITY
uses? UNJ Y SMA
The proposed zone change is compatible with existing neighboring land uses because
surrounding properties that lie directly to the east are currently zoned Light Industrial and
consist of fruit processing facilities and beyond that manufacturing and service
businesses. The north property line of this project abuts State Route 12 and beyond that
the Naches River, so neighboring uses exist in that area. Properties which lie west of this
proposal are currently developed with one small commercial land use and two residences
on large parcels and beyond them to the west is North 160i Avenue. Property to the south
consists of Yakima Movie Theatres a large structure with extensive parking. The movie
theatres are positioned in such a fashion that all activities associated with them take place
south of the movie theatre and are thus, mitigated from any potential adverse impacts
from industrial development.
Based on these factors, the property owner believes that the proposed zone change is
compatible with existing neighboring uses because the proposed industrial use, expansion
of an existing fruit processing facility, is consistent with surrounding uses and future uses
expected on the surrounding properties within the adjacent zoning districts.
What mitigating measures are planned to address incompatibility, such as
sitescreening, buffering building design, opera space, traffic flow alteration, etc.?
No mitigation is proposed as part of the rezone request. However, appropriate mitigation
is built into the zoning code through regular site plan approval, which would be required
as part of any expansion to this business.
Me
441
M. What is the public need for the Proposed, change?CRT
COA14UNtly1
The public need arises from the fact that expansion within some clusters of existing Mr
zoning districts does not exist, meaning that existing businesses and industries have
nowhere to expand, once they have completely built -out a zoning district cluster. The
clusters cannot expand without a necessary change to the comprehensive plan and rezone
of the property. The lack of clusters large enough for expansion has resulted in some
businesses having to relocate or construct outside the City Limits of Yakima. In this
instance, the proposed comprehensive plan change and rezone will provide an area for
this business to expand without having to leave its current facility. It also permits this
business to continue to expand its facility at a single location. The public expects
successful businesses to expand and remain in Yakima. This rezone meets that public
need and perspective.
ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (SEPA)
` (AS TAKEN FROM WAC 197-11-960)
"N YAKIMA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 6.88
PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), RCW Ch. 43.21 C, requires all governmental agencies to con sider 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 RroMsal, if it can be done) and to help thea enc decide whether an EIS is re uired.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS
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 reasonabl related to determining if there may be si ificant adverse irn a+ t.
USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NONPROJECI` PROPOSALS

Yes, this proposal addresses circumstances which have changed since the original
comprehensive plan was adopted and the most relevant comprehensive plan update.
Since the time of the original and updated comprehensive plan adoption, local
agricultural businesses have done extremely well financially. Specifically over the last
two years. This financial success has permitted local agricultural businesses to expand
their facilities, purchase new equipment and have specialized mechanical machinery
constructed and repaired. This surge in business by the agricultural community has led to
a need for smaller businesses which specialize in this type of work. The proponent of
this application is classified as "Fabricated Structural Metals Products" by the zoning
code and does business as Evergreen Machine and Fabrication, Inc.,. The business
produces steel products and provides services to all aspects of the agricultural industry.
Due to the increase in demand from the agricultural community, it is necessary for this
business to expand to accommodate the needs of agricultural producers and processors.
This business has currently outgrown its current facility but desires to stay at its current
location because it is close to many of the local agricultural processors that are currently
expanding their facilities. The site also has fairly favorable access to the State Highway
System and Interstate System to serve those not located within the immediate area.
Unfortunately, this property is isolated from other properties zoned General Commercial
because it only abuts the General Commercial zoning district along its west property line.
Thus, properly zoned properties that would meet the needs of this company's expansion
are only available to the west of the site and those properties are already developed with
similar businesses. So the only direction to expand is north and east because the property
fronts along East Viola Avenue on the south. With this in mind, to further expand its
operation, the proponent has acquired two adjoining properties, which lie to the east.
This provides the business with enough property to expand and construct a new structure
to expand their facility which is needed to meet the demands of the local agricultural
industry.
B. Does vour proposal better implement aRplicable comprehenLivejpIan elieies
than the current relevant corn rehensive 121an map or text" If so how?
Yes, this proposal better implements applicable comprehensive plan policies than the
current relevant comprehensive plan map because the change will permit an existing
business to expand an existing facility, instead of having to relocate operations to another
area.
The proposal better implements the applicable plan policies because it meets the
following goals and policies:
Goal 3.10 — Provide wide variety of commercial retail and services that are heavily
dependent on convenient vehicle access and serve sections of the urban area along
major travel routes.
Policy3.10.1— General commercial uses and services that are heavily dependent on
convenient vehicle access shall be located along major travel routes.
Comment — This property lies between South i" Street and Fair Avenue, both are urban
arterials and provide this site with convenient access that serves the urban area and
provides routes to the state highway and interstate systems for access to areas beyond the
urban area.
Policy 3.10.2 — Discourage new strip commercial development. Strip commercial land
uses shall only be allowed as infill of existing strip commercial areas, and will not extend
the existing strip commercial areas.
Comment — This proposal promotes infill of the existing strip commercial by expanding
an existing business currently located within the strip. The proposed expansion is not an
expansion of the existing strip to establish a new use but to accommodate the expansion
of an existing use.
Goal 4.1: — Ensure that the local economy continues to revitalize and that new 21s'
Century jobs in all wage levels are available for residents.
Policy 4. 1.1 — The City and County will demonstrate their commitment to long-term
economic growth by promoting a diverse economic base, providing opportunity for all
residents. Growth that helps raise the average annual wage rate of community residents
and preserves the environmental duality and livability of the community is viable growth
and will improve the lifestyle of residents.
Policy 4.1.3 — Stimulate economic development that will diversify and strengthen
economic activity and provide primary and secondary job opportunities for local
residents.
Comment -- Approving this request will ensure that the local economy continues to be
revitalized while providing above average wage jobs for the residents of Yakima. Since
this is a manufacturing business, it provides material which provides primary and
secondary job opportunities for local residents.

Does your proposal correct an ohvi pus ma in error? It so how?
It is possible that a mapping error occurred on a portion of the property. One of the
parcels in this proposal (191330-41453) has an inconsistent comprehensive plan
designation when compared to its current zoning designation. The current
comprehensive plan land use designation is Medium -density Residential and the current
zoning designation is General Commercial. As the business has been located at this site
since about 1995, it is possible that an error occurred on this parcel. However, this error
has opened the door for this business to locate at this site because the zoning allows the
existing land use to occur at this site. The balance of the proposal is a voluntary request
on behalf of the property owner, which complies with the comprehensive plan and
promotes economic development.
D. :Does our progGsal address an identified deficiency in the Corn rehensive
Plan? If so what is the deficiency?
This proposal does involve an identified deficiency in the comprehensive plan. The
deficiency deals with the fact that there is a need for areas of expansion for established
uses. Specifically, many commercial businesses are located in existing commercial
zoning clusters that do not permit expansion beyond their current borders because the
cluster is fully developed, or there is no adjoining land available to acquire that is
properly zoned for expansion purposes. It is therefore, necessary to expand into other
zones provided the expansion is in conjunction with expansion of existing uses and not
the creation of a new use. Currently, the City of Yakima has no commercially zoned
property in this area which permits the expansion of the existing business at this specific
location. The existing facility only has one logical way to expand, and, that is to the east.
This request fulfills that deficiency by providing additional commercially zoned lands for
future expansion of an existing business in the General Commercial Zoning District.
E. the Rroposed Comprehensive pian Amendment coordinated with and take
into consideration the comprehensive platis adopted by Yakima Coun!y or
cities with which the Cift of Yakima has in art common borders or related
regional issues as mav be re wired by RCW 36.70A..100? _Ifso h w?
Yes, this proposal is consistent with RCW 36.70A.100. This application is part of the
annual comprehensive plan update for the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The
City of Yakima coordinates this update with Yakima County for consistency between the
jurisdictions.

P'. _Js the proRoscd CoM rehensive Plan Amendment consistent with the Growth
Mana ernent Act GRCW Ch.36.70A and the Yakima County -wide
Planning Pot f 'PP 7 [l'so how?
Yes, this proposal is consistent with the Growth Management Act and the Yakima
County -wide Planning Policy because the proposal directs urban growth to an existing
urban area (within City Limits first) and encourages infill in an area where many urban
level services and facilities are currently provided. The proposal reduces sprawl and is
served with an adequate transportation system. This proposal also encourages economic
development in the urban area and provides goods and services for the surrounding
neighborhood and general Yakima Area.
G. Have the cumulative irn acts of all comprehensive plan amendments been
considered in the evaluation of the proposed amendment? if so howl"
The cumulative impacts of all comprehensive plan amendments are determined by the
jurisdiction processing the proposed amendment. In this situation, the impact will result
in a shift away from residential uses to commercial uses. However, the impact should be
minimal because the property under consideration is well suited for the intended use, as it
provides property large enough for a commercial use and is served with most necessary
infrastructure to support the requested change.

The subject property consists of three shops, outdoor storage areas, parking areas and two
single-family residences. Except for connection to the City sanitary sewer system, all
urban services and facilities are available to the property, or can easily be extended to the
property, as needed.

1. blow is the sub`ect Dropela,suitable for uses Rermitted under the ro osed"
zonin ?
The property is well suited for most General Commercial uses permitted under the
proposed zoning. The property is flat and is currently served with all necessary
infrastructure and public facilities, except public sewer. Adjoining property to the west
and northwest is currently developed with commercial and light manufacturing
businesses. Properties to the north, south and east are generally constructed with older
single-family residences that are in poor repair and are cluttered with outdated/random
items. The intent behind this rezone is for the purpose of further expanding an existing
business facility. The proposed rezone is to benefit that company and permits it to
expand in an orderly way within the Yakima Urban Area. Since this is an expansion
project for an existing business, the prospect of some other commercial venture occurring
at this location is extremely minimal. The project also benefits the City of Yakima by
permitting an existing business to continue in Yakima at its present location, which
provides jobs to the residents of the community.
What is the status of the existing land use?
The subject properties involved in the rezone consist of .93 acres, in two parcels.
Existing uses consist of a single-family residence on each lot. The residences are owned
by the proponent.
J. How is the rezone re nest in com fiance with and/or how does the reguest
deviate from the Yakima urban Area Comprehensive Plan?
The rezone request is in compliance with the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan
because it meets the intent behind the text of the plan as it deals with the General
Commercial definition. Specifically, as defined by the comprehensive plan, this proposal
and general area meets the intent of the commercial designation because the General
Commercial designation "provides a wide variety of commercial retail and services that
are heavily dependent on convenient vehicle access along major travel routes."
This proposal meets that definition and is further supported by the following goals and
policies:
Goal 3.10 — Provide wide variety of commercial retail and services that are heavily
dependent on convenient vehicle access and serve sections of the urban area along
major travel routes.
Policy3.10.1— General commercial uses and services that are heavily dependent on
convenient vehicle access shall be located along major travel routes.
Comment — This property lies between South I" Street and Fair Avenue, both are urban
arterials and provide this site with convenient access that serves the urban area and
provides routes to the state highway and interstate systems for access to areas beyond the
urban area.
Policy 3.10.2 — Discourage new strip commercial development. Strip commercial land
uses shall only be allowed as infill of existing strip commercial areas, and will not extend
the existing strip commercial areas.
Comment — This proposal promotes infill of the existing strip commercial by expanding
an existing business currently located within the strip. The proposed expansion is not an
expansion of the existing strip to establish a new use but to accommodate the expansion
of an existing use.
Goal 4.1: — Ensure that the local economy continues to revitalize and that new 21"
Century jobs in all wage levels are available for residents.
Policy 4.1.1— The City and County will demonstrate their commitment to long-term
economic growth by promoting a diverse economic base, providing opportunity for all
residents. Growth that helps raise the average annual wage rate of community residents
and preserves the environmental quality and livability of the community is viable growth
and will improve the lifestyle of residents.
Policy 4.1.3 — Stimulate economic development that will diversify and strengthen
economic activity and provide primary and secondary job opportunities for local
residents.
Comment — Approving this request will ensure that the local economy continues to be
revitalized while providing above average wage jobs for the residents of Yakima. Since
this is a manufacturing business, it provides material which provides primary and ftEC&VLVD
secondary job opportunities for local residents.

K. Are there adequate. -public facilities.,such as traffic ca aci sewer servi�,es f
potable water, storm3yaterdrainaM, schools fire and poliELLenices, and other
public services and infrastructure existing on the and around the subiect ro er
Yes, there are adequate public facilities to serve this proposal. The property fronts on
East Viola Avenue, a hard surfaced roadway. The street is adequate to accommodate the
traffic generated by this proposal and the other uses along its frontage, as access can be
gained to the west to South 151 Street and to the east to Fair Avenue. This easy access is
exceptional and permits access to major urban arterials and the highway system. The
property is served with all other infrastructure including domestic water, electricity,
telephone and any other needed utilities. However, the property is currently not served
with sanitary sewer service by the City. Additionally, the site is protected by the Yakima
Police and Fire Departments.
Are the existing public facilities capable of supporting the most intensive use of the
new (requested) zone? If not, what mitigating measures are going to be
implemented to address any short falls in public services that may exist?
Yes, this property can be served with the existing facilities capable of supporting the
most intensive uses. If any service or facility deficiency exists in the delivery of services,
necessary mitigation will take place by the developer to ensure adequate public services
and facilities are in place at his/her/their expense through land use concurrency
requirements.
L. How is the prollosed zone than a compatible with the existing nei bborin
uses?
The proposed zone change is compatible with existing neighboring land uses because
surrounding properties that lie directly to the west and northwest are currently zoned
General Commercial and consist of manufacturing and similar service businesses.
Properties to the north, south and east are generally constructed with older single-family
residences that are in poor repair and are cluttered with outdated/random items. This
neighborhood appears to be in transition and even though it is designated for residential
use is trending towards commercial uses. The lose of substandard housing in favor of
newer commercial ventures seems to be more compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood than the current residential uses.
What mitigating measures are planned to address incompatibility, such as
sitescreening, buffering building design, open space, traffic flow alteration, etc.?
No particular mitigation is proposed as part of the rezone request because it does not
propose a project. However, appropriate mitigation is built into the zoning code through
regular site plan approval, which is required as part of any expansion to this business.
Additionally, the use is a Type 3 Use in this zoning district, which would require a public
hearing before the Hearing Examiner, which would ensure adequate mitigation measures
are imposed prior to expansion.

X 'khat is the public need forthe proposed change?
The public need arises from the fact that expansion within some clusters of existing
zoning districts does not exist. The clusters cannot expand without a necessary change to
the comprehensive plan and rezone of the property. The lack of clusters large enough for
expansion of existing businesses has resulted in some businesses having to relocate or
construct outside the City Limits of Yakima. In this instance, the proposed rezone will
provide an area for this business to expand without having to leave its existing facility
and current location. The public expects successful businesses to expand and remain in
Yakima. This rezone meets that public need and perspective.

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

PART IV -- COMPREHENSIVE PLAN NARRATIVE
A. Does ourro osal address circumstances that have chan ed since the last
time the relevant corn rehen i e plan or text was considered; If so how?
Yes, this proposal addresses circumstances which have changed since the original
comprehensive plan was adopted and the most relevant comprehensive plan update. APR
Since the time of the original and updated comprehensive plan adoption, things have 3 02014
changed in this neighborhood. Many of the residential units which lie within, or abut OTTY or., y i
VOMIKUNAl
this commercial area have fallen into severe disrepair. A view of the immediate area �i pr°t'Opalpw
d
indicates that portions of this neighborhood are in transition or are declining. This
situation provides an opportunity to turn this decline around by offering property owners
that are adjacent to the existing commercial districts the opportunity to change their
zoning. This will ensure that substantial improvements are made to properties within this
neighborhood. This is the case with this property. The subject property has two
abandoned and burned -out residences located on it. They are unsightly and are
negatively affecting the neighborhood. The likelihood of this property returning to a
residential use is unlikely because it is located on a busy corner and the traffic impact is
substantial. The impact is so great that the intersection of North 5s' Avenue and West D
Street has been re -designed twice in the last few years. Additionally, a round -about has
been constructed at North 51' Avenue and Fruitvale Boulevard to accommodate increased
traffic flows in this area. Based on these factors, a change in circumstances has occurred
since the last comprehensive plan update.
B. Does your Proposal osal better implement applicable corrr rehensive plaq,oficies
than the current relevant comprehensive plan Mapor text? If s2, how"
Yes, this proposal better implements applicable comprehensive plan policies than the
current relevant comprehensive plan map because the change will permit a property that
has commercial zoning to its south, southeast and west become commercial. This rezone
will also speed-up the removal of a dilapidated property from the City.
The proposal better implements the applicable plan policies because it meets the
following goals and policies:
Goal 3.4 — Restore old neighborhoods and revitalize declining neighborhoods.
Policy 3.4.3 — In the residential areas where commercial and residential uses are heavily
mixed, encourage the establishment of neighborhood commercial services and foster
mixed uses including retail, office and apartments.......,
Comment — This proposal will revitalize an existing neighborhood by permitting a small
commercial business in a mixed neighborhood and remove a dilapidated property.
Goal 3.10 — Provide a wide variety of commercial retail and services that are heavily
dependent on convenient vehicle access and serve sections of the urban area along
major travel routes.
Policy 3. 10.1 — General commercial uses and services that are heavily dependent on
convenient vehicle access shall be located along major travel routes.
Comment — This property lies at the northwest comer of West D Street and North 5`h
Avenue, both are collectors/arterials and provide this site with convenient access that OkOVIVED
serves the urban area and provides routes throughout the City and eventually onto the
state highway and interstate systems fora access to areas beyond the urban area, APR

Goal Century. — Ensure that the jobsilocal economy continues

W
Policy 4.1.1— The City and County will demonstrate their commitment to long-term
economic growth by promoting a diverse economic base, providing opportunity for all
residents. Growth that helps raise the average annual wage rate of community residents
and preserves the environmental quality and livability of the community is viable growth
and will improve the lifestyle of residents.
Policy 4.1.3 — Stimulate economic development that will diversify and strengthen
economic activity and provide primary and secondary job opportunities for local
residents.
Comment — Approving this request will ensure that the local economy and neighborhood
continues to be revitalized while providing an opportunity for above average wage jobs
for the residents of Yakima by permitting a dilapidated property to be replaced with a
new commercial venture.
C. does our groposal correct an obvious mapping error?,,,,,If so how,/
No, this proposal does not correct an obvious mapping error. This is a voluntary action
by the property owner in an attempt to up -zone the property so that a newer use can be
established on the property to improve the neighborhood and its aesthetics.
D. Does vQur proposal address an identified deficienc in the Corr rehensi e
Plan: Ifso what is, the deficiency?
This proposal does involve an identified deficiency in the comprehensive plan. The
deficiency deals with the fact that there is a need for areas of expansion to existing
commercial nodes, when properties adjacent to them are longer able to be restored. This
is the case with this application. Goal 3.4/Policy 3.4.3 states such a policy but there is no
process to complete the desired outcome without having to go through this
comprehensive amendment process.
Is the iproposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment coordinated with and take
into consideration the comprehensive glans adopted by Yakima Counft. or
cities with which the Cily of Yakima has in part, common borders or related.
regional issues as may be re uired by I CW 36.70A.I00?" If how?
Yes, this proposal is consistent with RCW 36.70A.100. This application is part of the
annual comprehensive plan update for the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The
City of Yakima coordinates this update with Yakima County for consistency between the
jurisdictions.
P. Is the proposed Corn rehensive Plan Amendment consistent with the Growth
Management Act ffiMAJ, 1gC'i Ch.36.70A and the Yakima oun -wide
Planning Poli: C"'4" "PP ? If so how?
Yes, this proposal is consistent with the Growth Management Act and the Yakima
County -wide Planning Policy because the proposal directs urban growth to an existing
urban area (within City Limits first) and encourages infill in an area where all urban level
services and facilities are currently provided. The proposal reduces sprawl and is served
with an adequate transportation system. This proposal also encourages economic
development and neighborhood revitalization in the urban area, which in return can
provide goods and services for the surrounding neighborhood and general Yakima Area.
G. Have the cumulative intacts of all c m rehensive lan amendments been
considered in the evaluation qf the groposed amendment? If so how'd
The cumulative impacts of all comprehensive plan amendments are determined by the
jurisdiction processing the proposed amendment. In this situation, the impact will result
in a shift away from residential uses to commercial uses. However, the impact should be
minimal because the property under consideration is well suited for the intended use, as it
provides property large enough for a commercial use and is served with all necessary
infrastructure to support the requested change.

1. flow is the suMect properIl suitable for uses ermitted and r the pro osed
tonin ?
The property is well suited for most General Commercial uses permitted under the
proposed zoning. The property is flat and is currently served with all necessary
infrastructure and public facilities. Adjoining property to the south and southeast is
currently developed with a mixture of residential and commercial uses. Properties to the
north and east are generally constructed with older single-family and multi -family
residential uses that are in poor repair and are cluttered with outdated/random items.
Property directly to the west is vacant and zoned commercial. Access to the property is
via West D Street through a curb -cut and alley access. This provides the property with
enough setback distance from the intersection of West D Street and North `h Avenue to
permit commercial traffic to function without causing congestion at the intersection.
The intent behind this rezone is for the purpose of cleaning up an unsightly and
dilapidated property and allow a new commercial venture to locate along an arterial, as
anticipated through the General Commercial zoning district. The proposed rezone will be
a benefit to this neighborhood because it would allow a new commercial venture to locate
adjacent to existing commercially zoned properties on the west, south and southeast,
along a designated arterial. The proposal consists of two parcels totaling .34 acres, which
is an adequate size to accommodate a small neighborhood use.
What is the status of the existing land use?
The subject property is contains two abandoned boarded -up residences and a small shop
located on .34 acres of property.
J. How is the rezone re uest in cam fiance with and/or, how does the re nest
deviate from the Yakima urban Area Comprehensive Plan?
The rezone request is in compliance with the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Pian
because it meets the intent behind the text of the plan as it deals with the General
Commercial definition. Specifically, as defined by the comprehensive plan, this proposal
and general area meets the intent of the commercial designation because the General
Commercial designation `provides a wide variety of commercial retail and services that
are heavily dependent on convenient vehicle access along major travel routes."
This proposal meets that definition and is further supported by the following goals and
policies:
Goal 3.10 — Provide wide variety of commercial retail and services that are heavily
dependent on convenient vehicle access and serve sections of the urban area along
major travel routes. �
Policy 3.10.1— General commercial uses and services that are heavily dependent on APP 0
convenient vehicle access shall be located along major travel routes.
lies at the comer of West 1 YAKIMA
which are classified as
either ther arterials or collectors. Wiese roadways provide this sitenyJt�'
with convenient access that serves the urban area and provides routes to the state highway
and interstate systems for access to areas beyond the urban area. A commercial venture
at this location will provide convenient vehicle access along these two travel routes.
Policy 3.10.2 — Discourage new strip commercial development. Strip commercial land
uses shall only be allowed as infill of existing strip commercial areas, and will not extend
the existing strip commercial areas.
Comment — This proposal promotes infill of the existing strip commercial by expanding
the strip to a corner lot which has commercial zoning adjacent to it along the south,
southeast and west. The expansion of this strip will convert an "eye -sore" of a property
from a residential nightmare into a new commercial venture that will serve the needs of
the traveling public in this area.
Policy 3.10.5 — Improve the appearance of commercial corridors by encouraging new
development to place parking lots behind buildings, or along the side of the buildings.
Comment — This proposal has the opportunity to improve the appearance of the existing
commercial corridor by encouraging new commercial development that will be
constructed to current standards and provide the residential area to the north with a buffer
of new development, instead of a derelict property that is a magnet for transients and
trash. It is obvious that a new residential use at this site is not likely to occur because the
property is currently zoned Multi -family Residential and it has not been redeveloped with
a new residential use. The opportunity to correct this ugly situation is now, which will
ultimately improve the commercial corridor.
Goal 4.1: — Ensure that the local economy continues to revitalize and that new 21"
Century jobs in all wage levels are available for residents.
Policy 4.1.1-- The City and County will demonstrate their commitment to long-term
economic growth by promoting a diverse economic base, providing opportunity for all
residents. Growth that helps raise the average annual wage rate of community residents
and preserves the environmental quality and livability of the community is viable growth
and will improve the lifestyle of residents.
Policy 4.1.3 — Stimulate economic development that will diversify and, strengthen ��
economic activity and provide primary and secondary job opportunities for local lop
residents.
Comment — Approving this request will ensure that the local economy and community
continues to be revitalized while providing above average wage jobs for the residents of
Yakima by having another piece of commercial property to develop. Since this request is
for a small -sized property, it is likely that any use established will be a retail or service
business that will provide local jobs within the community.
K. Are there ade uate Rublie facilities such as traffic cal2acily, sewer ervices
otable water, stormwater drainages schools fire and police services and other
Public.services and infrastructure existing.on the and around the subiect ro er ?
Yes, there are adequate public facilities to serve this proposal. The property fronts on
both West D Street and North 51h Avenue, which are hard -surfaced. City maintained
roadways. The streets are adequate to accommodate the traffic generated by any new
proposal that would be constructed on this site. Easy access can be provided by West D
Street, which has enough frontage to prevent traffic congestion at the intersection. The
property is served with all other infrastructure including domestic water, sanitary sewer,
electricity, telephone and any other needed utilities. Additionally, the site is protected by
the Yakima Police and Fire Departments.
Are the existing public facilities capable of supporting the most intensive use of the
new (requested) zone? If not, what mitigating measures are going to be
implemented to address any short falls in public services that may exist?
Yes, this property can be served with the existing facilities capable of supporting the
most intensive uses. If any service or facility deficiency exists in the delivery of services,
necessary mitigation will take place by the developer to ensure adequate public services
and facilities are in place at his/her/their expense through land use concurrency
requirements.
D. How is the Rroposed zone chap a com atible with the existing nei hborira
uses?
The proposed zone change is compatible with existing neighboring land uses because the
surrounding area is a mixed use neighborhood. The general area consists of single- and
multi -family residential uses, service providers, small and large retail outlets and
professional offices. These uses are all intertwined with one another as the conversion to
commercial uses in this area takes over portions of the neighborhood adjacent to the
existing commercial zoning districts. This rezone request will be compatible with the
neighboring uses because it will be small, similar to other commercial businesses in the
immediate vicinity.
What mitigating measures are planned to address incompatibility, such as
sitescreening, buffering building design, open space, traffic flow alteration, etc.?
No particular mitigation is proposed as part of the rezone request because it does not
propose a project. However, appropriate mitigation is built into the zoning code through
regular site plan approval, which is required as part of any expansion to this business.
M. What is the public need for the proRosed chane +s?
The public need arises from the fact that the expansion is on the northern cusp of an
existing commercial node. The existing node consists of many mixed uses on small lots
and there is no room for new uses to occur. This proposal occurs on a double -lot and can
accommodate a slightly larger business that has a better opportunity to meet the
development standards of the zoning district. The need also arises from a code
compliance issue, which has occurred on this property numerous times. Since the
likelihood of this property remaining residential is extremely small, the public will
benefit by having the property rezoned to commercial and clean-up a dilapidated
property. This presents the need for the change, as the City of Yakima continues to
clean-up older neighborhoods with new uses. This rezone meets that public need from
that perspective.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
M ; STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (SEPA)
(AS TAKEN FROM WAC 197-11-960)
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 proposal, if it can be done) and to help the ageticy decide whether an EIS is required.
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 Erovide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact.
