KITTITAS COUNTY <br /> DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS <br /> PUBLIC WORKS—BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br /> STUDY SESSION STAFF REPORT <br /> STUDY SESSION DATE: February 14,2022 <br /> TOPIC: Revisions to Kittitas County Code: 12.01.130, 15A.0 1.040 and 15A.07.015 <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: Direct Staff to Docket Updates with Planning <br /> Commission and CDS <br /> LEAD STAFF: <br /> Mark R. Cook <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> Direct staff prepare materials for Planning Commission presentation. <br /> BRIEFING SUMMARY: <br /> • Recent failure in developing a quorum of Road Variance Committee members <br /> underscores the need to revise the variance process (two recent failures). <br /> • On September 3, 2021, Public Works (PW) received direction from the Board of <br /> County Commissioners (BoCC) to draft revisions to County Code. <br /> • Revisions to code are now the Prosecuting Attorney's Office for final review. <br /> • PW will coordinate with Community Development Services once we have PA <br /> approval on proposed revisions. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> For the past several years, PW has struggled to consistently manage requests for variance <br /> to our road standards. The BoCC was briefed early fall 2021 on the issue and direction <br /> was given to revise the process. Revisions are complete and awaiting submission to the <br /> Planning Commission—as Chapter 12 contains development regulations. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> The proposed process (redlines attached) has all variance requests going to the County <br /> Engineer for consideration. The applicant can then appeal the County Engineer's <br /> determination to the Public Works Director. The Director's decision can then be <br /> appealed to the Hearings Examiner. The process requires changes to: KCC 12.01.130 <br /> with additions to KCC 15A.01.040 and 15A.07.015. <br /> FISCAL IMPACTS: <br /> None are identified at this time. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Exhibit 1: PROPOSED REVISIONS TO KITTITAS COUNTY CODE (12.01.130, <br /> 15A.01.040 AND KCC 15A.07.015) <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> Public Works"Work Session Staff Report",2021 <br />
