ATTACHMENT "A"
Design Guidelines
The following design guidelines are recommended for the Kittitas County Airport
Industrial/Business Park, Zones I & II. These guidelines may apply to other zones as well, if and
when development proceeds in those areas. We are recommending two internal "design districts"
for Zones I & II. Within Zone I, between Bowers Road and Elmview Road, and approximately
400 feet east of Airport Road, we are recommending higher design standards than for the rest of
Zone I. These higher standards would also apply to Zone II that will ultimately need to be
rezoned to accommodate proposed uses.
The purpose of design standard is to ensure that site development within the Airport
Industrial/Business Park meets standards acceptable to both the County and tenants.
Setback & Landscape Easements: The following setbacks are recommended from back of
right-of-way line:
Table 2.1
SETBACK & LANDSCAPE EASEMENTS
Building Parking Landscape
Setback Setback Easement
Airport Road 30' 20' 20'
Bowers Road 30' 20' 20'
Internal Roads 25" 15' 15'
Side & Rear Property Lines 15' s· 5'
Landscape easements should include a combination of groundcover or turf and street trees.
In addition, along the south property line of current airport property, including the north edge of
the irrigation channel as it runs through Zone II, a 30' -50' landscaped buffer should be
incorporated that includes a trail element consistent with the John Wayne Memorial Trail.
Parking: No on street parking is permitted along Airport Road, Bowers Road or any street
internal to the Airport Industrial Park. Along Bowers Road and Airport Road, on-site parking
areas should be screened through the use of berms and/or landscaping. Within parking areas, a
minimum of one tree and planting area per eight parking stalls should be required.
Loading & Service Areas: Along Airport Road and Bowers Road, loading and service areas
should be located to the rear of the site. No where in the Airport Industrial Park should loading be
conducted from public streets.
Outside Storage & Equipment: For sites adjacent to Airport Road and Bowers Road,
outside storage should be permanently screened from view and located at the rear of the site. For
other areas within the Park, outside storage should be screened through the use of the landscape
setback along the public street.
Waste & Refuse: Trash, recycling and garbage bins should be stored in separate enclosures or
within a service yard.
' .... ATTACHMENT "A"
Screening: Screening should be a minimum of 6 feet and maximum of 12 feet high and should be
of a height at least 6 inches above the materials or equipment being screened. A combination of
screening elements are recommended, including solid masonry walls, berms, and landscaping.
Chain link fencing with appropriate slatting is an acceptable screening material for areas of any
lot visible from interior roads.
Utilities: All permanent utilities shall be underground.
Streets: Streets should be 28 feet to 32 feet wide from back of curb to back of curb. Curbs are
recommended. A 50-foot curb radius is recommended at street comers, with a 25-foot curb radius
at driveways.
Pavement can be either concrete or asphaltic concrete and should be designed for heavy
truckloads. Due to the nature of this park, sidewalks are not recommended.
Buildings: All buildings must comply with applicable State, County and City codes. It is
recommended that building facades along Airport Road and Bowers Road avoid prefabricated
metal or plain aluminum siding.
Sign Standards: All signs must comply with article 17.72 of the Kittitas County Zoning code.
The design standards for the Kittitas County Airport Industrial/Business Park have been kept
simple and permissive, but with an overall intent of encouraging good site design and a "good
neighbor" policy as it relates to the visual impact of one project upon another. This is generally
consistent with typical industrial park standards in Eastern Washington, but if it errs, it errs on
fewer rather than more stringent standards.
