2019 Docket Enabling Ordinance December 3, 2019 <br />Page 7 <br /> <br />This amendment to KCC 15A.07 changes the filing location for appeals of administrative land use <br />decisions. This code change necessitates other portions of KCC 16 and KCC 17 to be amended as <br />well for consistency. The BOCC office is no longer the appropriate place to file these types of appeals <br />because the BOCC amended county code during the 2018 Annual Docket re-assigning the authority to <br />the Hearing Examiner. <br /> <br />The Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on November 12, 2019 and approved the <br />request as presented by a 3-0 vote, finding that: <br />I. The Planning Commission recommended approval as presented by staff to the Board of <br />County Commissioners with a vote of 4-0. <br />II. No public testimony for this proposal was received. <br />III. The change meets the Growth Management Act and the objectives of the Comprehensive <br />Plan. <br /> <br />19-03 Kittitas County Proposal: <br />Housekeeping amendments to KCC Title 17 to clarify that “riding arenas” are a standalone land <br />use already in code, update RCW references that have changed, to clarify that “permit” in <br />17.61.040.2 is specific to “building permits”, and to correct scrivener errors, Exhibit C. <br /> <br />This amendment will make the following changes: <br />•17.08.067 – amend definition of “Animal Boarding to remove “riding arenas”. Riding arenas <br />have their own use in the uses table and shouldn’t be part of this definition. <br /> <br />•17.60A.015(7)(b) – Code references RCW 36.70A.030(15) as GMA definition of “rural <br />character.” The correct reference is RCW 36.70A.030(20) <br /> <br />•KCC 17.61.040.2 – Clarify for building permit not CUP permit and update reference to <br />“subsections E and F of this section” to “subsections 4 and 5 of this section” as they were <br />renumbered (SEE ORD 2000-06). <br /> <br />•KCC 17.61B- Table 5.3 – Footnote # 3 strike “Zoning Administrator or Board of <br />Adjustment” and replace with “CDS Director”. <br /> <br />The Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on November 12, 2019 and approved the <br />request as presented by a 3-0 vote, finding that: <br /> <br />I. The Planning Commission recommended approval as presented by staff to the Board of <br />County Commissioners with a vote of 4-0. <br />II. No public testimony for this proposal was received. <br />III. The change meets the Growth Management Act and the objectives of the County’s <br />Comprehensive Plan. <br /> <br />19-04 Kittitas County Proposal: <br />Amend Title 17 regarding definitions of “lot line, front” and add a definition for “street <br />frontage.” Additionally, amend various sections of Title 17 to remove “corner lots” from yard <br />requirements in numerous zones, Exhibit D. <br /> <br />This amendment includes a new definition of “street frontage” and amends the definition of “lot line, front” to <br />better define setback requirements.
