Recommendation Regarding Amendments to the City's Zoning Ordinance
TO: City of Yakima Planning Commission
FROM: Joseph Calhoun, Planning Manager
SUBJECT: Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments — File TXT#001-18
FOR MEETING OF: March 28, 2018
PURPOSE AND DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT:
This amendment originated as a request for Hearing Examiner Interpretation (INT#001-17) to
allow the property at 305 W Lincoln to be used for Temporary Worker Housing, a use that does
not currently fit within any of our existing land use categories. After holding the necessary public
hearing, the Hearing Examiner issued his decision on January 17, 2018 which directed staff to
bring the concept of Temporary Worker Housing to the Planning Commission for additional
review.
The Planning Commission held study sessions on January 24, 2018, February 14, 2018, and
February 28, 2018 wherein staff, members of the public, and the commission developed draft
language to modify the current definition of "boardinghouse," add a definition for "motel/hotel,"
modify the land use Table 4-1, and modify the parking Table 6-1.

production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise?

storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances, or the production of noise.

RE: TXT#001-18, SEPA#003-18 — Temporary Worker Housing
Dear Ms. Davenport:
This letter is in response to your request for comment for Temporary Worker Housing. I will be
unable to attend the next Planning Commission meeting where a recommendation will be
formulated regarding this issue. So please consider these comments applicable to both the
request for comments and testimony for the Planning Commission to consider.
I have offered comments to the Yakima Planning Commission during preliminary discussions
regarding this matter on several occasions. After reviewing the text amendments in the above
referenced file, I would encourage the Planning Commission and City Council to approve the
proposed changes. These changes will give clear guidance on Temporary Worker Housing
within the City of Yakima.
I would like also like to point out one clarification regarding some of my testimony before the
Planning Commission that I believe was misunderstood. I offered testimony about
"boardinghouses" in the SR Zone. My intent was to state that it was an unlikely zone for
boardinghouses to be constructed because water and sewer service generally did not normally
exist in that particular zoning district. I believe the Planning Commission understood in y
testimony meant that I was not in favor of boardinghouses in the SR Zoning District. After the
closing of public testimony, the Planning Commission referenced my testimony in their
deliberation and recommended that boardinghouses be removed from the SR Zoning District. I
would like to clarify that I believe boardinghouses are an appropriate use in the SR Zoning
District and should remain as a Type 3/Class 3 land use in that zoning district.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
Sincerely,
Bill Hordan

Re: Proposed farmer worker housing
Commission members
Housing in in Yakima County is in short supply, especially farm worker housing.
Many workers have to travel great distances from home to work.
CITY OF YAKIMA
Au j'J �u;; u'!
I support the efforts of the city of exploring the possibilities of promoting and creating housing aimed at
relieving the shortage of farm worker housing.
My concern and reason for writing this letter is to ask the planning commission to focus on locating
housing in current residentially zoned areas of town and to not consider commercial properties such as
hotels, warehouses, or any other commercially zoned properties.
This includes properties located on North First Street, and other gateways into the city. Main entrances
need to remain for commercial use and redevelopment into commercial use.
Allowing commercial properties to become residential in use, would, in my opinion, keep those residing
in these locations, separated from residential neighborhoods and thus limiting their ability to become
familiar with enjoy local citizens and amenities of neighborhood life styles.
I am asking the planning commission to reject proposals to convert commercial properties into
temporary or long term farm worker housing, but rather focus on creating better housing opportunities
in present residentially zoned locations .
