AGENDA STAFF REPORT
AGENDA DATE: April 18, 2017
ACTION REQUESTED: Approval for Proposed Development Agreement for Funding for Processing
the Planned Unit Development of Marion Meadows- DA-17-00001.
BACKGROUND: Marion Meadows is a proposed planned unit development in the Easton area
originally applied for in 2007. Applicants provided funds to the County to complete
an EIS for the project, and were in the process of completing the preliminary
proposal. The County indicated to the applicant on February 4, 2016 that a number
of items would have to be completed to obtain final approval by September 2016 or
the project application would expire. Instead of providing the requested materials to
the County to process the original application, the applicant chose to allow the
original project to expire, and applied for a new planned unit development under
current regulations.
The applicant for the past and current application deposited to Kittitas County a total
of $104,250 in 2007 to process the original Marion Meadows Planned Unit
Development application. In processing the application and in discussions with the
applicant between January 2014 and November 30, 2016 as the new application was
being discussed, the County expended $19,450.50, leaving a balance of $84,799.50.
The County has expended funds from this account since that November date in
accepting and processing the new application.
The applicant has chosen to use these remaining funds to process the new proposal.
A draft development agreement for the use of these funds has been created and is
available for hearing before the Commissioners. Staff requests that this funding
development agreement be signed so that all remaining funds be used in the
processing of the new application.
