Jeff Slothower, agent for Ronald and Bonnie Scott are proposing a rezone and map amendment to two parcels (061634 and 029034) from a Residential (061634) and split zoned parcel (029034), rezoned to a General Commercial zoning designation. The parcels are part of a small grouping of residentially zoned parcels in the Easton LAMIRD that border 1-90 and are surrounded by General Commercial on the remaining sides. The rezone will allow for a zoning designation more consistent with the existing use conducted on the property. An excavation business has operated on the properties since 1975. A comprehensive plan amendment (CP-19-00001), rezone application (RZ-19- 00001), and SEPA checklist were submitted as part of the application packet. A SEPA DNS was issued on October 3, 2019 and the comment period regarding this determination ended on October 18, 2019 at 5:00 pm. No SEPA appeals were filed. The processing of this non-project specific rezone is consistent with l(jttitas County Code 15B.03 Amendments to Comprehensive Plan. The Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on November 12, 2019 and approved the request as presented by a 3-0 vote, finding that: I. The Planning Commission recommended approval to the Board of County Commissioners with a vote of 4-0. II. No public testimony for this proposal was received. III.

This non-project rezone is consistent with KCC 17 .98 and KCC 15B.03. V. The change meets the Growth Management Act and the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. 19-11 Citizen-Initiated Proposal: Amendments to Title 17 regarding Mini warehouse, Recreational vehicle/equipment service and repair, and recreational vehicle storage, Exhibit K. This amendment was proposed by a private citizen and has been assigned file number CP-19-00002. The request is a text amendment from Thomas Durant, authorized agent for Jeff Bainter to allow mini- warehouses, RV storage, and RV maintenance and repair as separate land uses in the Forest and Range zoning district through a conditional use permit. These proposed amendments, modify existing definitions, propose a new definition for "Recreational vehicle/equipment service and repair", add the uses as a CU (conditional use) in KCC 17.5.060.1 Rural Non-LAMIRD Use Table, and also modify and/or add associated footnotes. The proponent argues that this is consistent with the Kittitas County Comprehensive Plan by allowing for diverse business industries, commercial endeavors, and tourism based business to operate in the county with an emphasis on uses that have a low demand for water 2019 Docket Enabling Ordinance Page 10 December 3, 2019 and public services (GPO 2.42, 2.43A, 8.8, 8.16, 8.17, 8.18, 8.21, 8.44C, 8.54, 8 .57, 8.61, 10.4, and 10 .5). These GPOs have been replaced as either a policy or goal in the most recent Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update by Ordinance No. 2019-010 dated June 2019. The new citations are as follows respectively: LU-P56, LU-P57, RR-P4, RR-P15, RR-P16, RR-Pl 7, RR-Pl9, RR-P45, RR-P54, RR- P56, RR-P61, E-G4, and E-P5. County staff recommended approval of the code amendments as proposed by the applicant except for the definition of mini-warehouse. Staff finds it unnecessary to include RV Storage in the definition of "mini-warehouses" because "rv storage" is its own use in the use table and is proposed to be permitted with a conditional use permit therefore expanding the definition of "mini-warehouses" is redundant. The Planning Commission recommended modifying staff's recommendation to to re-write the siting criteria to only allow contiguous or adjacent to state highways and within ¼ mile of highway interchanges and freeway interchanges. The Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on November 12, 2019 and approved the request as presented by staff with one additional change, striking the building height requirement proposed by the applicant, by a 3-0 vote, finding that: I. The Planning Commission recommended approval to the Board of County Commissioners with a vote of 4-0. II. Public testimony in favor of this proposal was received. III. The Forest and Range zone provides adequate building height standards. IV. The change meets the Growth Management Act and the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. 19-12 Citizen-Initiated Proposal: Map amendment for a Non-Project Rezone and Land Use change within unincorporated Kittitas County, Exhibit L. This amendment was proposed by a private citizen and has been assigned file numbers CP-19-00003 and RZ-19-00002.

The proposed use at the proposed location will not be unreasonably detrimental to the economic welfare of the county and that it will not create excessive public cost for facilities and services by finding that A. The proposed use will be adequately serviced by existing facilities such as highways, roads, police and fire protection, irrigation and drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewers, and schools; or B. The applicant shall provide such facilities; or C. The proposed use will be of sufficient economic benefit to offset additional public costs or economic detriment. 3.

Communication facilities may be authorized by the Community Development Services director as an administrative conditional use in all zoning districts, pursuant to the criteria and procedures of this chapter and KCC Title 15A and KCC 17 .60. An administrative conditional use permit is not required for the operation of amateur or noncommercial communication equipment as defined by FCC regulations under Part 95D and Part 97 CFR (i.e., citizen band, ham radio). 2. Construction of all improvements shall be completed within one year of the date of building permit issuance except as provided for in subsections ~J.; and ,2..F of this section. 3. The property line setback shall be 1.2 times the height of the structure. The lot line setback requirements of this title may be reduced by the Community Development Services director, in order to improve the facilities' reception and/or transmission capabilities or to achieve greater levels of audible or visual screening provided the applicant can provide evidence that it would not be possible for the tower to fall on neighboring properties. Communication facilities shall be designed to blend with existing surroundings; provided, no conflicts exist with existing Federal Communications Commission and the Federal Aviation Administration regulations relating to aircraft safety. This should be achieved through the use of compatible colors and materials, and alternative site placement to allow the use of topography, existing vegetation or other structures to screen the proposed transmission support structure from adjacent lands. 4. The co-location of antennas on both existing and proposed transmission structures is encouraged. Communication antennas shall be permitted outright in all zoning districts provided the following: a. An antenna shall not extend more than six feet horizontally from any structure to which it is attached. b. An antenna shall not extend vertically more than 15 feet above the uppermost portion of the structure to which it is mounted or attached. 5. Modifications to, including the expansion of, existing approved communication facilities shall be outright permitted; provided, there is no increase in the height of the transmission tower.
