Since the adoption of the 2018 Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan, the Washington State Office of Financial Management has made population projections for Jefferson County. Jefferson County, in consultation with the City of Port Townsend, adopted growth allocations in Resolution # 68- 1118-24R as recommended by the Growth Management Steering Committee, reformed for the 2025 Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update. Growth for Jefferson County occurred at a slower rate than anticipated in the 2018 projections. The slower growth rate is addressed in the 2025 Comprehensive Plan. The Land Use Element of the 2025 Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update plans to the County’s 20-year population allocations for the year 2045 consistent with Resolution #68-1118-24R. The prior population projection assumed a population of 39,221 by 2038. New projections assume 40,486 people will live in the county by 2045, including an additional 2,360 residents in the City of Port Townsend and Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA, each allocated 40% of proposed growth (80% allocated to urban areas), and 1,180 residents in rural areas (allocating 20% of proposed growth); and (ii) Are the assumptions upon which the [2018] Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan is based no longer valid; or is new information available, which was not considered during the adoption process or any annual amendments to the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan? The BoCC finds that new information relating to housing, employment, wages, traffic, capital facilities, and other factors are available since the 2018 Comprehensive Plan. Inventories and DRAFT STAFF WORK PRODUCT—SUBJECT TO FREQUENT CHANGES v. 10-13-2025 4 analysis for each element are updated to reflect and address the new information as part of the periodic update requirements of the GMA; and (iii) Does the proposed amendment reflect current, widely held values of the residents of Jefferson County? The BoCC finds that the 2025 Comprehensive Plan reflects currently and widely held values of the residents of Jefferson County. The 2025 Comprehensive Plan had an extensive public outreach program; and (iv) Is growth and development as envisioned in the [2018] Comprehensive Plan occurring faster or slower than anticipated, or is it failing to materialize? The BoCC finds that in a large part growth has occurred slower than anticipated; and (v) Has the capacity of the county to provide adequate services diminished or increased? The BoCC finds that the demand for public services and facilities likely will increase as population and employment increases. The Facilities and Utilities Element adopts level of service for facilities and services to support anticipated growth. The 2025 Comprehensive Plan identifies needed facilities, their timing, and needed revenue. In some cases, level of service is adjusted to ensure that Jefferson County continues to meet resident and business needs given its available funding, staffing, and resources. Jefferson County is constructing a sewer system to serve the Irondale and Port Hadlock Urban Growth Area. The 2025 Comprehensive Plan includes policies regarding development of urban growth areas. Title 13, Utilities, was updated in 2024 to codify development standards specifying when development and re-development requires connection to sanitary sewer service in the Irondale and Port Hadlock Urban Growth Area; and (vi) Is there sufficient urban land, as designated and zoned to meet projected demand and need? The BoCC finds that there is sufficient urban land designated and zoned to meet projected demand and need. A summary of the updated land capacity analysis is included in the Land Use Element with more detail in Section 6.2 of Appendix E-1: Land Capacity & Housing Technical Appendix. The capacity analysis prepared for the 2025 Periodic Update illustrates there is sufficient capacity for planned growth, including sufficient capacity for new housing affordable to households across all income levels, with the proposed zoning revisions. No change is proposed to UGA boundaries. Based on the vision, land characteristics, and provisions of the GMA, the County is proposing limited redesignations from medium to high density residential in the UGA on the Land Use Map in this periodic update. Updates related to allowed densities and uses, dimensional standards, and process in the development regulations are proposed concurrent with the periodic updated to support anticipated growth; and (vii) Are any of these assumptions under which the plan is based no longer found to be valid? The BoCC finds all assumptions in the 2025 Comprehensive Plan valid; and DRAFT STAFF WORK PRODUCT—SUBJECT TO FREQUENT CHANGES v. 10-13-2025 5 (viii) Are there changes in the county-wide attitudes? Do they necessitate amendments to the goals of the Comprehensive Plan and the basic values embodied within the Comprehensive Plan Vision Statement? The BoCC finds that the Vision Statement reflects current county-wide attitudes as it was developed with extensive public participation. The County prepared a slightly revised Vision Statement and amended goals and policies in each element as part of the periodic update requirements of the GMA. The Visions Statement and all goals and policies were reviewed for needed revisions, additions, and deletions to align with key findings from the community outreach, updated context, and new state requirements; and (ix) Are there changes in circumstances which dictate a need for amendment to the Comprehensive Plan? The BoCC finds that new trends and conditions in Jefferson County, together with extensive public participation and new GMA requirements, resulted in changes to circumstances and a need to adopt the 2025 Comprehensive Plan; and (x) Do inconsistencies exist between the Comprehensive Plan and the GMA or the Comprehensive Plan and countywide planning policies for Jefferson County? The BoCC finds that there are no inconsistencies between the 2025 Comprehensive Plan, countywide planning policies, and the GMA. The periodic updates maintain consistency. The BoCC finds that sufficient analysis has been completed for adopting a new SEPA categorical exemption for middle housing projects in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA and the county- administered portion of the Port Townsend UGA, through the comprehensive plan periodic review, particularly the Land Capacity Analysis and Housing Technical Appendix E-1 and the SEPA Environmental Checklist. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY ORDAINED, by the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners as follows: Section 1. Findings. The BoCC hereby adopts the recitals (the WHEREAS statements) as its findings of fact in support of this Ordinance. Section 2. 2018 Comprehensive Plan Repeal.

[Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.010 Urban growth areas (UGA). There is currently one wholly unincorporated UGA in Jefferson County: the Irondale and Port Hadlock urban growth area. In 2024, the Port Townsend Urban Growth Area (PTUGA) boundary was expanded beyond the Port Townsend City limits, which adds unincorporated area to the PTUGA that is administered by the county and is designated UGA-Public (Ord. #09-1209-24). The Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA comprises three four broad categories of urban land uses: urban residential; urban commercial; and urban industrial; and public. These Comprehensive Plan land use categories are further defined into “zoning districts” that identify specific land use activities, densities and intensities of use allowed in the Irondale and Port Hadlockcounty UGAs. The specific land use and zoning provisions of the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA are contained in Cchapter 18.18 JCC. The urban provisions of Cchapter 18.18 JCC shall be applied when urban services are available, namely sewer facilities. [Ord. 9- 09 § 2 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-38 18.15.015 Rural lands. This land use class includes three four categories: rural residential; rural commercial; and rural industrial; and public. These categories are further defined into specific “districts”: (1) Rural Residential. (a) Rural Residential 1 Unit/5 Acres (RR 1:5). The purpose of this district is to allow for continued residential development in areas of Jefferson County consisting of relatively high densityhigh-density, pre-existing patterns of development, along the county’s coastal areas, and within areas within or adjacent to rural centers and rural crossroads. In addition, this district seeks to support and foster Jefferson County’s existing rural residential landscape and character by restricting new land divisions to a base density of one unit per five acres. (b) Rural Residential 1 Unit/10 Acres (RR 1:10). This district provides a transitional area between the rural residential one per five-acre district and the rural residential one unit per 20-acre district. Its intent is to preserve open space, protect critical areas, provide for the continuation of small-scale agricultural and forestry, and preserve and retain the rural landscape and character indigenous to Jefferson County. (c) Rural Residential 1 Unit/20 Acres (RR 1:20). The purpose of this district is to provide a buffer in areas adjacent to UGAs and designated forest and agricultural lands of long-term commercial significance, as well as protecting areas identified as possessing area-wide environmental features which constrain development such as shoreline areas or areas of steep and unstable slopes. The district also protects land from premature conversion to higher residential densities prior to an established need. (2) Rural Commercial. (a) Rural Centers (Rural Village Center) (RVC). Rural village centers provide for most of the essential needs of the surrounding rural population and the traveling public. These areas supply a variety of basic goods and day-to-day services, while also providing a limited range of professional, public and social services. They are typically small, unincorporated commercial and residential community centers that provide rural levels of service and serve as a focal point for the local population. The boundaries of the rural village centers are predominantly defined by the contained, built environment as it existed in 1990 or before, as required by RCW 36.70A.070(5)(d). Designated rural village centers include: Quilcene and Brinnon. (b) General Crossroads (GC). General crossroads are existing historic commercial areas that provide a broad range of commercial goods and services for a larger population base in the northeastern part of Jefferson County. There is one general crossroads designation identified in Jefferson County: SR 19/20 Intersection. (c) Neighborhood/Visitor Crossroads (NC). Neighborhood/visitor crossroad districts serve the nearby rural neighborhood and the commuting or traveling public. These historic areas typically provide an extended range of goods and services by establishment of restaurants, taverns/bars, auto part stores, hotel/motels and a limited range of specialty and professional services. There are five neighborhood crossroads identified in Jefferson County: Mats Mats, Discovery Bay, Four Corners, Chimacum and Gardiner. (d) Convenience Crossroads (CC). Convenience crossroads consist of a single commercial property at a historical crossroads. Typically, the existing commercial use is a convenience or general store with associated uses that provide a limited selection of basic retail goods and services for the local population and the commuting or traveling public. Land uses are not oriented to markets beyond the local rural population. There are three convenience crossroad designations in Jefferson County: Nordland, Beaver Valley and Wawa Point. (3) Rural Industrial. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-39 (a) Light Industrial/Manufacturing (LI/M). The purpose of this district is to provide for rural economic development by regulating light industrial and manufacturing uses in the Quilcene area. The light industrial uses and activities associated with this district are intended to be compatible with the rural character. There are two light industrial/manufacturing districts in Jefferson County: Quilcene and Eastview. (b) Glen Cove Light Industrial/Commercial (LI/C). The intent of this district is to facilitate economic development and provide for a broader range of light industrial and associated commercial activities in the Glen Cove area. Associated commercial activities are intended to directly serve the needs of the land use activities existing within this district. (c) Glen Cove Light Industrial (LI). The purpose of this district is to facilitate economic development and provide for a broad range of light industrial uses. The light industrial uses and activities associated with this district are intended to be compatible with the Glen Cove area. (d) Heavy Industrial (HI). The intent of this district is to facilitate economic development and regulate development of more intensive heavy industrial and manufacturing activities, including and associated with the Port Townsend Paper Mill. (e) Resource-Based Industrial (RBI). This district recognizes existing forest resource-based industries in Jefferson County, in particular active sawmills and related activities. The district is intended to facilitate the continued operation of existing functional sawmills and related resource- based industrial activities in the county. There are three two resource-based industrial site designations in Jefferson County: Gardiner, Center Valley, and the West End. (4) Public. Lands designated public that serve general public needs other than parks, preserves and recreation. This designation may be provided for certain public facilities or other lands for other public use. See JCC 18.15.030 Public. Forest Transition Overlay 1 Unit/5 Acres (FTO 1:5). This category provides a transitional area between forest resource lands and abutting rural residential lands characterized by pre-platted lots of density greater or equal to one acre in size. The FTO category does not automatically attach to any lands, but parcel(s) may be approved for such designation in accordance with the provisions of JCC 18.15.571. Its intent is to promote the continued viability of resource-based activities in rural areas by minimizing the potential for conflict and incompatibility between these uses and surrounding residential uses. [Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.030 Public. This land use class consists of nonfederal public lands used for special purposes. It currently includes three four districts (Note: Essential Public Facilities are established through zoning overlay per Article VI Overlay Districts, and sited per 18.15.110): (1) Parks, Preserves and Recreation (PPR). This land use district consists of state and county parks, preserves and recreational sites. It is intended to provide for public recreational opportunities consistent with the rural character of the county and preserve significant natural amenities of special or unique character. (2) County Waste Management Essential Public Facility (CWMEPF). Commented [JP1]: This text was missed from deletion when the FTO was rescinded. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-40 (3) Airport Essential Public Facility (AEPF). This land use district consists of land owned by the Port of Port Townsend that directly and indirectly supports operations of the Jefferson County International Airport as an essential public facility. It is intended to promote compatible land uses and the long-term economic viability of the JCIA consistent with county goals regarding essential public facilities, the preservation of rural character, and economic development. (4) Public. Lands designated public that serve general public needs other than parks, preserves and recreation. This designation may be provided for certain public facilities or other lands for other public use. Public purpose facilities and services may be located in other zoning districts. The purpose of the Public designation is to provide for the siting of important public facilities, compatible services, and affordable housing. [Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.040 Categories of land use. Land uses regulated under this code are divided into four categories, as identified in Table 3-1. (1) Uses Allowed. Uses allowed subject to meeting the applicable performance standards (Cchapter 18.20 JCC) and development standards (Cchapter 18.30 JCC) and other applicable provisions of this code (including project permit approval, see Cchapter 18.40 JCC, if a building or other development permit is required) are designated by a “Yes.” (2) Discretionary Uses. Discretionary uses are certain named and all unnamed uses which may be allowed subject to the applicable development and performance standards (Cchapters 18.20 and 18.30 JCC) and an administrative review of potential impacts are designated by a “D” (for “discretionary”). On the basis of the administrative review, the administrator may classify the proposed “D” use as either an allowed use, a prohibited use, or a conditional use in the particular land use district affected. Discretionary, “D,” uses are subject to a Type II administrative review as specified in Cchapter 18.40 JCC. Decisions classifying “D” uses made under this section may be appealed to the hearing examiner (see Cchapter 18.40 JCC). The administrator may classify the discretionary use as an allowed “Yes” use in the particular district affected, only if the proposed development: (a) Complies with the applicable development standards of Cchapter 18.30 JCC; (b) Complies with the performance and use-specific standards unique to the proposed use specified in Cchapter 18.20 JCC; (c) Is appropriate in design, character, and appearance with the goals and policies for the land use designation and district in which the proposed use is located; (d) Is consistent with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the applicable regulations of the Shoreline Master Program if the application involves property located within the jurisdiction of the state Shoreline Management Act, but does not require a shoreline permit; (e) Will be served by adequate facilities including access, fire protection, water and sewer facilities (municipal, community, or on-site systems); (f) Does not include any use or activity that would result in the siting of an incompatible use adjacent to an airport or airfield (Cchapter 36.70 RCW); (g) Shall not adversely impact the public health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the county; Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-41 (h) Shares characteristics common with but not of significantly greater intensity, density or that generates more environmental impact than those uses allowed in the district in which it is to be located; and (i) Will not result in impacts on the human or natural environments determined by the administrator to require review as a conditional use. If the preceding conditions are not met to the satisfaction of the administrator, the administrator may either prohibit the use or require a conditional use permit. (3) Conditional Uses. All conditional uses are designated by a “C” and may be allowed subject to meeting the applicable development standards (Cchapter 18.30 JCC), performance standards unique to the proposed use (Cchapter 18.20 JCC), and the criteria for a conditional use permit (Article VIII of Cchapter 18.40 JCC), as provided for in this code. All conditional uses shall be reviewed in accordance with a Type III quasi-judicial permit review process (requiring public notice, written comment and a public hearing) outlined in Cchapter 18.40 JCC; except that conditional administrative uses (designated by a “C(a)”) may be allowed subject to a Type II administrative permit review process (requiring public notice and written comment, but not a public hearing); and conditional discretionary uses (designated by a “C(d)”) may be allowed subject to a Type II permit review process, unless the administrator determines that a Type III permit review process (requiring a public hearing) is warranted based on the project’s potential impacts, size or complexity, according to criteria in JCC 18.40.520. (4) Prohibited Uses. Uses designated with a “No” are not allowed in the applicable land use district. Table 3-1. Allowable and Prohibited Uses How To Use This Table Table 3-1 displays the classifications of uses for land use districts, except for land use and zoning districts in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA which are specified in Cchapter 18.18 JCC. The allowability and classification of uses as represented in the table are further modified by the following: The location may have a multiple designation. This would be true of the Shoreline Master Program, a subarea plan, or an overlay district applied to the location. The Shoreline Master Program (SMP) should be consulted if the location of interest is subject to the SMP jurisdiction. See also Notes 1 to 3 to this table. All regulations in this code apply to the uses in these tables. To determine whether a particular use or activity can occur in a particular land use district and location, all relevant regulations must also be consulted in addition to this table. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-42 Categories of Uses Yes = Uses allowed subject to the provisions of this code, including meeting applicable performance standards (Cchapter 18.20 JCC) and development standards (Cchapter 18.30 JCC); if a building or other development permit is required, this use is also subject to project permit approval; see Cchapter 18.40 JCC. D = Discretionary uses are certain named and all unnamed uses which may be allowed subject to administrative approval and consistency with the UDC, unless the administrator prohibits the use or requires a conditional use permit based on project impacts; see JCC 18.15.040(2) and Cchapter 18.40 JCC. C = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment and public hearing procedure; see Article VIII of Cchapter 18.40 JCC. C(a) = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment, and an administrative approval procedure, but not a public hearing; see Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-43 Article VIII of Cchapter 18.40 JCC. C(d) = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment and, at the discretion of the administrator, a public hearing procedure, if warranted, based on the project’s potential impacts, size or complexity, according to criteria in JCC 18.40.520; see Article VIII of Cchapter 18.40 JCC. No = Prohibited use. NOTES: 1. All uses must be consistent with the purpose of the land use district in which they are proposed to occur; see the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. All land uses in all districts must meet the general regulations in Article III of this chapter unless otherwise stated herein. 2. A land use or development proposed to be located entirely or partly within 200 feet of the ordinary high water mark of a regulated shoreline is within the jurisdiction of the Shoreline Master Program, and is subject to the applicable provisions of this chapter and of the SMP, as well as the applicable provisions and permit requirements indicated in this table. Please refer to the Shoreline Master Program for specific use regulations and regulations by shoreline environment. 3. Overlay districts provide policies and regulations in addition to those of the underlying land use districts for certain land areas and for uses that warrant specific recognition and management. For any land use or development proposed to be located entirely or partly within an overlay district, or within the jurisdiction of a subarea plan, the applicable provisions of the overlay district or subarea plan as provided in Articles VI and VII of this chapter shall prevail over any conflicting provisions of the UDC. 4. The assignment of allowed or prohibited uses may not directly or indirectly preclude the siting of “essential public facilities” (as designated in the Comprehensive Plan) within the county. See JCC 18.15.110. 5. Outright uses are land uses or activities which are exempt from the provisions of this Unified Development Code. 6.

Unified Development Code Amendments B-93 Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-94 Article VI-M. Planned Rural Residential Developments (PRRDs) 18.15.475 Purpose. The purpose of this Article VI-M is to implement the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan by promoting creativity in site layout and design, allowing flexibility in the application of the standards for residential development in rural residential and agricultural districts. This article provides performance criteria to encourage flexibility in the type and design of rural residential housing available to the public through the planned rural residential development (PRRD) process. More specifically, it is the purpose of this article to: (1) Provide for residential development in rural areas in a way that maintains or enhances the county’s rural character; (2) Allow development of land with physical constraints, while at the same time preserving the natural characteristics of the site, including topography, native vegetation, wildlife habitat, critical areas, forestry, agriculture and other natural amenities of value to the community; (3) Retain large, undivided parcels of land areas large enough for forestry and agriculture activities that provide opportunities for compatible agricultural and other rural land uses; (4) Facilitate the creation of open space corridors for recreation and aesthetic enjoyment; (5) Permit developers to use innovative methods and approaches not available under conventional zoning methods to facilitate the construction of a variety of housing types and densities serving the diverse housing needs of Jefferson County residents; and (6) Provide for the economical provision of infrastructure to new development by allowing choices in the layout of roads, provision of community water and wastewater disposal systems and other improvements through superior site design and the use of clustering. [Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.480 Applicability. (1) This Article VI-M shall apply to all permitted uses within all rural residential and agricultural districts (i.e., RR 1:5, RR 1:10, RR 1:20, AP-20, and AL-20) and constitutes an overlay district (i.e., floating zone) over these districts. This article may be applied to existing subdivisions and lots of record on which no development has yet occurredlegal lots of record, or where adequate vacant land exists within an existing development to meet the criteria contained within this article. (2) The PRRD process provides an alternative to traditional development under the prescriptive standards of this code. This article shall not be applied to rural residential or agricultural lots incapable of further subdivision due to minimum lot size, or as a means to avoid other procedures more appropriately reviewed as variance applications under Article IX of Chapter 18.40 JCC. (32) A PRRD application must be processed with either an application for short subdivision, long subdivision, or binding site plan approval under Cchapter 18.35 JCC, see JCC 18.15.535 for the review and approval process. The function of this article is to provide an alternative to traditional development under the prescriptive standards of title 18 JCC, allow more innovative ways of designing land divisions, enabling applicants to take advantage of incentives, including flexible densitylot size and dimensional standards, modification of other requirements of the county’s development standards contained in this Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-95 code, and density bonuses in appropriate situations in exchange for demonstrated benefits to the public interest. [Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.485 Minimum and maximum land area – Dwelling unit cap and cluster cap. The permissible number of dwelling units within a PRRD shall be calculated based upon the dwelling unit density of the underlying land use district. For the purposes of this chapter, dwelling units and accessory dwelling units are considered equivalent and may be combined when calculating dwelling unit density of the underlying land use district, so that the yield of permissible units is the sum of primary units plus accessory units.

(2) The maximum land area that may be included in a PRRD proposal shall be as follows: (a) RR 1:5 district – 225 gross acres; (b) RR 1:10 district – 450 gross acres; and (c) RR 1:20 and agricultural (AP-20 and AL-20) districts – 900 gross acres. (3) The maximum number of dwelling units that may be permitted in a PRRD proposal shall be limited to 45, contained within dwelling unit clusters of not more than 210 dwelling units each, each cluster shall be adjacent to the large reserved tract; except, that where a density bonus is requested under JCC 18.15.520, the proposal may include up to a total of 54 the number of dwelling units as approved by the hearing examiner or administrator., contained within dwelling unit clusters of not more than 22 dwelling units each. (4) Dwelling unit clusters within PRRD proposals shall be sufficiently separated to provide visual relief and maintain rural character. Where feasible, clusters shall be separated by the natural topographical features of the site, including, but not limited to, critical areas, watercourses, and ridge lines. However, in no case shall dwelling unit clusters be located closer than 600 lineal feet from one another. These requirements regarding separation of dwelling unit clusters shall also be applied to circumstances where the adjoining property or properties have previously been developed through the PRRD process as set forth in this Article VI-M.

[Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.515 Incentives – Innovative development proposals. (1) Purpose. (a) More efficient use can be made of land, energy and resources and more livable development can be achieved when the designer has flexibility in residential dwelling unit types, placement and density. Such flexibility can be achieved while safeguarding the public interest by review of the proposed PRRD plan that shows the type and placement of residential structures. (b) It is intended that innovative residential development encourage imaginative design to achieve these purposes. Therefore, incentive and flexibility may be allowed such as clustered housing and bonus densities, lot size averaging, zero lot lines, condominium development, and mixed residential types. The hearing examiner may approve the use of these tools as provided in this section as deemed reasonable and warranted by the excellence of the resulting design and its benefits to the community. (2) Techniques. (a) Clustered Housing. When residences are clustered in design groups in a PRRD with common open space, the clustered housing may, in lieu of the zone restrictions, be designed with building locations, lot sizes, and/or yards standards as prescribed on the plat or on plans for the PRRD approved by the county. Dwelling unit clusters within PRRD proposals shall be sufficiently separated to provide visual relief and maintain rural character. Where feasible, clusters shall be separated by the natural topographical features of the site, including, but not limited to, critical areas, watercourses, and ridge lines. However, in no case shall dwelling unit clusters be located closer than 600 lineal feet from one another. These requirements regarding separation of dwelling unit clusters shall also be applied to circumstances where the adjoining property or properties have previously been developed through the PRRD process as set forth in this Article VI-M. (b) Density Bonuses. When a plat, PRRD or other instrumentproposal is submitted under this Article VI-M, and is of sufficient excellence in design and planning, a higher density may be allowed therein in accordance with JCC 18.15.520. (c) Lot Size Averaging. Lot area may be varied. Except as allowed under JCC 18.15.520, the combined area of all lots and reserve tracts in the PRRD shall be equal to the density of lot size allowed in the zone where located. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-99 (d) Flexible Yards. Except as required under JCC 18.15.500 yYards may be reduced to zero, provided the structures are shown on the plat or PRRD and a 10-foot access for maintenance is given by yard and/or easement along each outside wall. (e) Residential Types. To achieve the most efficient use and conservation of land, energy, resources, view and terrain, mixed residential types may be designated and allowed in innovative PRRDs as prescribed in this section. (3) Buyer Notification. The PRRD plan shall note that the residences thereon constitute an innovative residential development and must be constructed as shown on the PRRD plan. Building permits may be issued only for structure types and placements as shown on the PRRD plan. Sales agreements and titles for land and residences sold in innovative residential developments shall note this restriction. [Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.520 Modification of permitted densities – Density bonuses. (1) Purpose for Bonus Densities. Bonus densities are intended to provide the incentive to encourage the development of more affordable housing, provide additional public amenities, or preserve valuable natural or cultural resources and features. The satisfaction of any of the bonus density criteria specified in subsection (4) of this section is considered to be in the public interest and worthy of a bonus density. (2) Eligibility for Bonus Densities. Eligibility to obtain a bonus density is based upon site plan review and approval by the hearing examiner after a public hearing. Such bonus densities may be granted to a deserving application if the PRRD plan submitted is judged by the hearing examiner to have achieved one or more of the bonus density criteria in subsection (4) of this section. (3) Maximum Bonus Density. In addition to criteria provided in this Article VI-M, the density shall be compatible with the site’s natural constraints and the character and density of the surrounding area. The average permitted density in the underlying district may be increased by up to 40% of the allowed limit, provided that land within access easements, access panhandles, or pipestem configurations is excluded from area calculations. (4) Criteria for Approval of Bonus Densities. Upon submittal of the PRRD application, the hearing examiner shall review the proposed project and with respect to the allocation of bonus densities for the project. The allocation of bonus densities should be based upon a comprehensive review of the entire project. It is the intention of this section to allow bonus densities where a PRRD applicant proposes design attributes providing public benefits in addition to those required by local, state or federal land use, health, or environmental regulations. Bonus densities shall not be allowed for site design proposal that merely reflect mandatory requirements of local, state and federal codes or regulations. Consideration shall be given to, but not necessarily limited to, the following criteria: (a) Preservation of Natural, Historical and Cultural Features. Items for consideration under this criterion include the preservation and minimum disturbance of natural features and wildlife habitat; preservation of unique historical or cultural features; preservation of open space; and preservation of scenic resources. (b) Public Service and Facility Availability. Items for consideration under this criterion include the provision of public park or other public facilities and/or sites; bicycle and pedestrian pathway systems; public transit access to the site; and special site design for special needs residents. (c) Energy Efficiency. Items for consideration under this criterion include preservation of solar access; south orientation with added glazing for inhabited structures; the use of landscaping and topography for windbreaks and shading; common wall construction; the use of solar energy systems Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-100 either passive or active for heating and/or cooling; energy conserving design of roadways and other structures; and higher insulation levels. (d) Public Recreation Facilities. Items for consideration under this criterion include provision for public recreational features such as active play areas, passive open space areas, golf courses, and bicycle and pedestrian pathway systems. (e) Environmental Design. Items for consideration under this criterion include on-site designs providing regional benefits, including drainage control using natural drainage and landscaped drainage retention facilities; flood control measures, particularly those measures serving regional needs; significant public access provided to designated potential open space or park areas, shoreline areas, trails, scenic sites and viewpoints; provision for substantial and exceptional landscape treatment; preservation of habitat identified for threatened and endangered species; and the use of recycled materials and resource conserving designs. (f) Affordable Housing. Items for consideration under this criterion include the provision of a mix of housing types, use of townhouses or other common wall construction techniques directed toward providing a reasonable mix or diversity of bona fide affordable housing opportunities for the community. For the purposes of this section, and consistent with Policy No. 6.1 of the County-Wide Planning Policy for Jefferson County (as amended by County Resolution No. 112-94), “affordable housing” means housing units available for purchase or rent to individuals or families with a gross income between the federally recognized poverty level and the median income for working families in Jefferson County; with costs, including utilities, that do not exceed 30 percent of gross income (RCW 43.185B.010). Bonus densities will also be allowed for projects providing low-income housing, as defined in RCW 43.185A.010, in market rate developments. In such developments and other developments seeking bonus densities for the provision of low-income housing opportunities, the amount of bonus will be linked to the level of affordability (i.e., the lower the cost or rental rate per unit, the greater the bonus afforded to the development). Density bonuses for low-income housing projects will be granted only where all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) The developer must agree to sell or rent the units to qualifying residents (i.e., only low- income and very low-income households); (ii) The developer must ensure the continued affordability of the units by qualified residents for a minimum of 20 years through the use of restrictive covenants or other deed restrictions approved by the county; and (iii) The units must be of an innovative design and compatible with the existing character of the surrounding area, with adequate assurances that such design and compatibility will be maintained throughout the 20-year period. (g) Provision of Innovative Design. Items for consideration under this criterion include the provision of innovative design elements similar to, but not limited to, those described in JCC 18.15.515(2). (h) Other suitable items believed by the county to be worthy of consideration may also be included as bonus density criteria. [Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.525 Modification of development standards. (1) The following development standards may be modified in approving a PRRD application: (a) Building setbacks; Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-101 (b) Height of buildings or structures, not to exceed 40 feet; (c) Lot size; (d) Lot width; and any other standards contained in Chapter chapter 18.30 JCC. (2) Standards that may not be modified or altered are: (a) Shoreline regulations when the property is located in an area under the jurisdiction of the Jefferson County Shoreline Master Program; (b) Standards pertaining to development within critical areas as set forth in Cchapter 18.22 JCC, Critical Areas; (c) Regulations pertaining to nonconforming legal structures and uses as set forth in JCC 18.20.260; and (d) Regulatory standards and requirements of the Jefferson County health department, Washington State Department of Health, and Washington State Department of Ecology pertaining to the provision of potable water and wastewater disposal. (3) Criteria for Approval of Alternative Development Standards. Approval of alternative development standards for PRRDs differs from the variance procedure described in Article IX of Cchapter 18.40 JCC in that rather than being based upon hardship or unusual circumstance related to a specific property, the approval of alternative development standards proposed by a PRRD shall be based upon the criteria listed in this Article VI-M. In evaluating a planned development that proposes to modify the development standards of the underlying zoning district, the hearing examiner shall consider and base its findings upon the ability of the proposal to satisfy the following criteria: (a) The proposed PRRD shall be compatible with surrounding properties, especially as relates to the following: (i) Landscaping and buffering; (ii) Public safety; (iii) Site access and circulation; (iv) Architectural design of building and harmonious use of materials; (b) The unique characteristics of the subject property; (c) The arrangement of buildings and open spaces as they relate to various uses within or adjacent to the PRRD; (d) Visual impact of the PRRD upon the surrounding area; (e) Improvements proposed in connection with the PRRD; (f) Preservation of unique natural features of the property; and (g) The public benefit derived by allowing the proposed alteration of development standards. [Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-102 18.15.530 Preliminary PRRD approval criteria. The following criteria are the minimum measures by which each proposed PRRD will be considered: (1) PRRDs shall be given preliminary approval, including preliminary approval subject to conditions, upon finding by the hearing examiner that all of the following have been satisfied: (a) The proposed PRRD conforms to: (i) The Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan; (ii) All provisions of this code that are not proposed for modification; and (iii) Any other provisions of local, state or federal regulations, policies or plans, except those standards proposed for modification; (b) Utilities and other public and private services necessary to serve the needs of the PRRD shall be made available, including: (i) Open spaces; (ii) Drainage ways; (iii) Roads and other public ways; (iv) Potable water; (v) Transit facilities; (vi) Wastewater disposal; (vii) Parks and playgrounds; (viii) Schools; and (ix) Sidewalks and other improvements that assure safe walking conditions for students who walk to and from school; (c) The probable significant adverse environmental impacts of the proposed PRRD, together with any practical means of mitigating such adverse impacts, have been considered and a determination issued that such adverse impacts can be mitigated in accordance with Article X of Cchapter 18.40 JCC and the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Cchapter 43.21C RCW; (d) Approving the proposed PRRD will serve the public use and interest and adequate provision has been made for the public health, safety and general welfare; (e) The proposed PRRD satisfies the criteria set forth in this Article VI-M, as applicable; and (f) The proposed PRRD will be superior to or more innovative than conventional development and will provide greater public benefit than that which would be available through the use of conventional zoning and/or development standards. (2) Notwithstanding the approval criteria set forth in subsection (1) of this section, in accordance with RCW 58.17.120, as now adopted and hereafter amended, a proposed PRRD may be denied because of flood, inundation or swamp conditions. Where any portion of the proposed PRRD lies within both a flood Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-103 control zone, as specified by cChapter 86.16 RCW, and either the one percent flood hazard area or the regulatory floodway, the county shall not approve the PRRD unless: (a) The applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the administrator or hearing examiner that no feasible alternative exists to locating lots and building envelopes within the one percent flood hazard area; and (b) It imposes a condition requiring the applicant to comply with critical area provisions of Cchapter 18.22 JCC and any written recommendations of the Washington State Department of Ecology. In such cases, the administrator shall issue no development permit associated with the proposed PRRD until flood control problems have been resolved. (3) Preliminary approval of a PRRD does not constitute approval to obtain any building permits or begin construction of the project. [Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.15.535 PRRD review and approval process.

The land use regulations in this chapter implement the Comprehensive Plan and ensure urban development is accompanied by urban infrastructure and services, in compliance with the State Growth Management Act. The availability of sewer facilities is a precondition to developing inside the a UGA at urban densities or standards. Jefferson County will apply urban standards to parcels where sewer is available. When sewer service is available, refer to this chapterThis chapter applies to the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA and the unincorporated county- administered portion of the Port Townsend UGA outside of the City of Port Townsend municipal boundary. [Ord. 9- 24 § 3 (App. A (Exh. 4)); Ord. 9-09 § 2 (Exh. B)] 18.18.010 Purpose. The purpose of this chapter is to establish land use controls and regulations for the unincorporated Irondale and Port Hadlock urban growth area (“PHUGA”) and the unincorporated county-administered portion of the Port Townsend UGA outside of the City of Port Townsend municipal boundary, consistent with the adopted Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan. UGA Zzoning designations are depicted on the comprehensive plan map of Irondale and Port Hadlock Urban Zoning, and the unincorporated county-administered portion of the Port Townsend UGA, found in the UGA Element, Exhibit 1-22, Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan (20182025). This chapter’s development regulations shall be used for urban development that has urban services available. Urban development will not be allowed before the availability of urban services, namely, sewer availability. Development in those areas in the UGAs that do not yet have sewer available shall be consistent with Chapter chapter 18.19 JCC. See JCC 18.18.060, Development requirements and performance standards, for specific information about sewer availability and when urban development standards will apply. If there is conflict between development regulations in this chapter and elsewhere in this title, then this chapter prevails. [Ord. 9-24 § 3 (App. A (Exh. 4)); Ord. 9-09 § 2 (Exh. B); Ord. 3-09 § 5 (Exh. G)] 18.18.030 Purpose of UGA land use and zoning districts. The purposes of the land use and zoning districts are as follows: (1) Urban Commercial (UC). The purpose of the urban commercial designation is to provide for a wide range of commercial activities and uses compatible with the expressed needs of the community that will provide goods and services for the UGA, nearby residents and serve the traveling public; Commented [JP2]: Redundant text. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-108 (2) Visitor-Oriented Commercial (VOC). The purpose of this designation is to recognize the unique area of the Old Alcohol Plant and allow commercial uses and for visitor-oriented lodging, goods and services that supplement the historical and tourism-related character of this area; (3) Urban Low Density Residential (ULDR). The purpose of the ULDR district is to provide for areas of single- family urban residential development that are separate from commercial and industrial uses and activities; (4) Urban Moderate Density Residential (UMDR). The purpose of the UMDR district is to provide for areas of mixed single-family and moderate density multifamily urban residential development; (5) Urban High Density Residential (UHDR). The purpose of the UHDR district is to provide for areas of high density multifamily residential development; (6) Urban Light Industrial (ULI). The purpose of the ULI designation is to allow for low intensity and low nuisance potential industrial uses; (7) Public (P). The purpose of the P designation is to provide for the siting of important public facilities, and compatible services compatible, and affordable housing.

This section establishes whether a specific use is allowed, prohibited, conditional or otherwise designated. Table 3A-1. Allowable and Prohibited Uses How To Use This Table Table 3A-1 displays the classifications of uses for UGA zoning districts. The allowability and classification of uses as represented in the table are further modified by the following: • The location may have a multiple designation. This would be true of the Shoreline Master Program, a subarea plan, or an overlay district applied to the location. The Shoreline Master Program (SMP) should be consulted if the location of interest is subject to the SMP jurisdiction. See also Notes 1 to 3 to this table. • All regulations in this code apply to the uses in these tables. To determine whether a particular use or activity can occur in a particular land use district and location, all relevant regulations must also be consulted in addition to this table. • A development proposal within 200 feet of the ordinary high water mark of a regulated shoreline is within the jurisdiction of the Shoreline Master Program, and is subject to the applicable provisions of the SMP in this title. • Overlay districts provide policies and regulations in addition to those of the underlying land use districts for certain land areas and for uses that warrant specific recognition and management. For any land use or development proposed to be located entirely or partly within an overlay district, or within the jurisdiction of a subarea plan, the applicable provisions of the overlay district or subarea plan as provided in Articles VI and VII of Cchapter 18.15 JCC shall prevail over any conflicting provisions of the UDC. Categories of Uses Yes = Uses allowed subject to the provisions of this code, including meeting applicable performance standards (Cchapter 18.20 JCC) and development standards (Cchapter 18.30 JCC); if a building or other development permit is required, this use is also subject to project permit approval; see cChapter 18.40 JCC. D = Discretionary uses are certain named and all unnamed uses which may be allowed subject to administrative approval and consistency with the UDC, unless the administrator prohibits the use or requires a conditional use Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-109 permit based on project impacts; see JCC 18.15.045 and cChapter 18.40 JCC. C = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment and public hearing procedure; see JCC 18.40.080. C(a) = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment, and an administrative approval procedure, but not a public hearing; see JCC 18.40.080. C(d) = Conditional uses, subject to criteria, public notice, written public comment and, at the discretion of the administrator, a public hearing procedure, if warranted, based on the project’s potential impacts, size or complexity, according to criteria in JCC 18.40.550; see JCC 18.40.080.

NOTES TO TABLE 3A-2: Fences are exempt from setback requirements, except in the jurisdiction of the Shoreline Master Program (SMP) or when impairing safe sight lines, as determined by the county engineer. Setbacks do not apply to mailboxes; wells; pump houses; bus shelters; septic systems and drainfields (except in the SMP); landscaping (including berms); utility apparatus such as poles, wires, pedestals, manholes, and vaults. No other structures or communication devices (such as antennas, satellite dishes) shall be located in the front setback area unless approved by the administrator. The administrator may reduce the minimum front road setbacks provided the proposed structures or required plantings do not interfere with sight distances and the reduced sight lines for vehicular traffic do not create a public safety concern. Chimneys, smokestacks, fire or parapet walls, ADA-required elevator shafts, flagpoles, utility lines and poles, skylights, communication sending and receiving devices, HVAC and similar equipment, and spires associated with places of worship are exempt from height requirements. Structures used for the storage of materials for agricultural activities are exempt from the maximum building height requirements. Approved subarea plans may establish different bulk and dimensional requirements for those areas. “N/A” = Not applicable. Road Classifications. To clarify the setbacks for urban development activities within the UGA consistent with the requirements of this section, the following road designations shall apply: — Principal arterials. None classified in the UGA. — Minor arterials. SR 19 (Rhody Drive). — Major collectors. SR 116 (Ness’ Corner Road, Oak Bay Road to Flagler Road and Flagler Road), Chimacum Road, Irondale Road. — Minor collectors. — Local access roads. — Alleys. — Private roads. The special side and rear setbacks provided in Table 3A-2 shall also apply to outbuildings for residential or agricultural uses such as detached garages, storage sheds or tool sheds, except for existing lots of record less than five acres wherein the minimum rear and side yard setbacks for outbuildings shall be five feet. Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-120 (9) Accessory Dwelling Units cannot have setback requirements more restrictive than single-family units.

(1) Purpose for Bonus Densities. Bonus densities are intended to incentivize the development of affordable housing in the UGA on real property owned or controlled by a religious organization. (2) Eligibility for Bonus Densities. This section applies to any religious organization developing new or rehabilitating an existing affordable housing development on real property owned or controlled by the religious organization in the UGA. Eligibility to obtain a bonus density is based upon site plan review and approval by the hearing examiner after a public hearing. Such bonus densities may be granted to a deserving application if the plan submitted is judged by the hearing examiner to meet all criteria in subsection (4) of this section. (3) Maximum Bonus Density.

[Ord. 8- 06 § 1] New Section JCC 18.20.285 Park Model Placement 18.20.285 Park Model Placement The purpose of this chapter is to provide an avenue for park models to be legally placed on property in unincorporated Jefferson County. Through the issuance of a placement permit the County can ensure proper installation, maintenance of setbacks, appropriate connection to potable water and waste disposal, and location outside of any critical areas or shorelines and their buffers. (1) Placement of a Park Model (including Recreational Park Trailers, or Tiny Home on Wheels with appropriate L&I insignia or equivalent) within Jefferson County requires approval of a placement permit issued by the Jefferson County Department of Community Development (DCD). (2) An application for placement shall be submitted to DCD Building Division on the appropriate forms and shall include the following: (a) Site Plan showing the location of the park model, other structures, distances from property lines, distances from critical areas and/or shorelines. (b) Means of managing stormwater runoff if the area of the park model and other new impervious surfaces (e.g. decks, patios, driveways) of the site exceed 400 square feet. (c) Source of approved water connection. (d) Approved sewage disposal (e) Accessory improvements, such as decks, skirting, parking, access, etc. (f) Means of securing the unit to prevent overturning or roof uplift (3) A Park Model may not be occupied until a Placement Permit has been issued and a final inspection performed and approved by DCD or if a previously issued permit related to the placement of a Park Model is on file with DCD. Existing Park Models placed prior to adoption of this ordinance may continue to be occupied, but if found to be noncompliant with underlying regulations in place at the time of adoption of this title (drainage, septic, potable water, zoning, Critical Areas, Shorelines) may be subject to Code Enforcement action. Existing Park Models used for housing purposes may choose to submit a site plan, approved potable water source, approved sewage disposal, compliance with Critical Area/Shoreline buffers and Zoning setbacks in lieu of a placement permit within 24 months of adoption of this title. (4) Only one Park Model may be placed on a legal lot zoned for residential purposes with or without an existing single-family residence. Multiple Park Trailers may be located within an approved binding site plan established for the purpose of placing multiple park models. (5) A Park Model placed on property with a single-family residence will disqualifies the property for an accessory dwelling unit while the park model is present. Likewise, a property containing an accessory dwelling unit is not eligible for the placement of a park model, unless allowed per Zoning. Commented [JP3]: c.f. 2024 park model placement code amendments Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-129 (6) Placement of a Park Model shall comply with all use and dimensional requirements of the County Code, including setbacks established in the Zoning Code, requirements of the Shoreline Master Program, Critical Areas Code, drainage requirements, and environmental health regulations.

For the purpose of approval of condominium developments, the provisions of this chapter regarding short subdivision and long subdivision shall not apply if: (1) A land division is proposed as a condominium and does not result in the subdivision of land into separately owned lots in accordance with the definition for short, or long, or unit lot subdivisions, but subjects a portion of a lot, tract or parcel to Cchapter 64.34 RCW (the “Condominium Act”) subsequent to the recording of a binding site plan for all such land; (2) The improvements constructed or to be constructed thereon are required by the provisions of the binding site plan proposed for a condominium project; (3) Jefferson County has approved a binding site plan for all such land; and (4) The binding site plan contains the following statement: All development and use of the land described herein shall be in accordance with this binding site plan, as it may be amended with the approval of Jefferson County, and in accordance with such other government permits, approvals, regulations, requirements, and restrictions that may be imposed upon such land and the development and use thereof. Upon completion, the improvements on the land shall be included in one (1) or more condominiums or owned by an association or other legal entity in which the owners’ associations have a membership or other legal or beneficial interest. This binding site plan shall be binding upon all persons, businesses, corporations, partnerships or other entities now or hereafter having any interest in the land described herein. [Ord. 9-24 § 3 (App. A (Exh. 2)); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.40.260 Administrative approvals without notice (Type I). (1) The administrator may approve, approve with conditions, or deny (with or without prejudice) all Type I permit applications which are categorically exempt from SEPA without notice (see Tables 8-1 and 8-2 in JCC 18.40.040 and 18.40.080(2)). This includes administrative design review of middle housing permits in a UGA. Expedited review process is available for Type I permit applications if the projects are categorically exempt under SEPA and are consistent with adopted development regulations. Type I permit applications that are not subject to public notice and are submitted as complete applications may take priority over other projects. (2) Type I projects that are not categorically exempt under SEPA shall be subject to the notice of application and comment period provisions of JCC 18.40.150 through 18.40.220, and the SEPA notice requirements of Article X of this chapter. The administrator’s decision under this section shall be final on the date issued, and may not be appealed to the hearing examiner. [Ord. 11-24 (Att. A); Ord. 8-06 § 1] 18.40.750 Categorically exempt actions – Use of existing documents and analyses. (1) Categorically Exempt Levels. (a) Except with the adoption of flexible threshold limits as set forth in subsections (1)(b) through (e) of this section, Jefferson County adopts and incorporates by reference the categorical exemption levels set forth in WAC 197-11-800. (b) Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(1)(c)(v), the maximum exempt level for any landfill or excavation activity in Jefferson County shall be 500 cubic yards. (c) Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(1)(c)(ii), the maximum exempt level for the construction of a barn, loafing shed, farm equipment storage building, produce storage or packing structure, or similar agricultural structure, Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-138 covering 30,000 square feet, and to be used only by the property owner or his or her agent in the conduct of farming the property. This exemption shall not apply to feed lots. (d) Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(1)(c)(iii), the maximum exempt level for the construction of an office, school, commercial, recreational, service or storage building with 12,000 square feet of gross floor area, and with associated parking facilities designed for up to 40 automobiles. (e) Pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(1)(c)(iv), the construction of a parking lot designed for 40 automobiles shall be exempt. (f) Pursuant to RCW 43.21C.229 (3), middle housing residential development projects in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA, and the county-administered portion of the Port Townsend UGA shall be categorically exempt from this Article. (2) Categorically Exempt Actions. Actions categorically exempt under subsection (1) of this section do not require review under this article or the preparation of an environmental impact statement, and may not be conditioned or denied under SEPA, except as provided in WAC 197-11-305 and subsection (3) of this section. (3) Use of Exemptions. (a) The responsible official shall determine the applicability of a categorical exemption. The determination by the responsible official that a proposal is exempt from SEPA is final. None of the procedural requirements of this article (except as provided in WAC 197-11-305 and this subsection) apply to an exempt proposal. (b) If a proposal includes exempt and non-exempt actions, the responsible official shall determine the lead agency pursuant to WAC 197-11-050. (c) If a proposal includes exempt and non-exempt actions, the county may authorize exempt actions prior to compliance with procedural requirements of this article, except as provided in subsections (3)(d) through (3)(g) of this section. (d) Consistent with WAC 197-11-070, 197-11-305 and 197-11-800, the county may not authorize the use of exemptions for: (i) Actions that are not exempt; (ii) Any action that would have a probable significant adverse environmental impact; (iii) A series of exempt actions that are physically or functionally related which together would result in a probable significant adverse environmental impact for the overall project; or (iv) Any action that would limit choice of alternatives. (e) The county may withhold approval of an exempt action that would lead to modification of the physical environment when such modification would serve no purpose if nonexempt action(s) were not approved (see WAC 197-11-305(1)(b)(i)). (f) The county may withhold approval of exempt actions that would lead to substantial financial expenditures by a private applicant when the expenditures would serve no purpose if the non-exempt action(s) were not approved. (g) Actions identified as categorically exempt from SEPA under WAC 197-11-800 shall remain exempt under SEPA even when located in one or more of the environmentally sensitive areas (ESAs) classified, designated and mapped under Article VI-D of Chapter 18.15 JCC. However, the categorical exemptions listed in WAC 197-11-800 shall not apply when undertaken wholly or partly on lands covered by water, regardless of whether or not such lands are mapped as ESAs. Proposals in areas subject to this subsection (3)(g) shall require environmental review and a threshold determination, and may be conditioned or denied under this article (see WAC 197-11-756, 197-11-800, and 197-11-908). Commented [JP5]: To use it, must adopt the new exemption for Middle Housing units in unincorporated areas of a UGA. See SEPA Handbook, 2025, and “New SEPA Housing Exemptions – Guidance on Implementing SSB 5412” (Ecology, Nov. 2023) Exhibit B. Unified Development Code Amendments B-139 (4) Use of Existing Documents and Analyses. Procedures for the use, adoption, or incorporation of existing documents and analyses are provided in WAC 197-11-600, 197-11-610, 197-11-630, and 197-11-635. (5) Planned Actions. (a) The county may, as part of its planning processes, elect to perform or have performed for it in advance of any development proposal, the environmental review and analysis for certain actions and their probable impacts. These “planned actions” must be so designated by ordinance or resolution adopted by the county after the analysis of the actions and their impacts has been completed. (b) Planned actions must be located in an urban growth area, a master planned resort (MPR), or a fully contained community, and meet the additional requirements contained in RCW 43.21C.031(2). (c) The analysis must be sufficient to identify and analyze all probable significant impacts and most nonsignificant impacts of the actions, and to identify (and, optionally, provide) to a great extent the mitigation necessary (i.e., the significant impacts must be “adequately addressed” in an environmental impact statement). (d) As a result of the analysis in subsections (5)(a) and (5)(c) of this section, a development proposal being prepared under a planned action does not require a threshold determination or the preparation of an environmental impact statement, but is subject to a full environmental review of its impacts and full requirements for mitigation as identified and specified by the review for the planned action in subsection (5)(c) of this section. (e) If the environmental review identifies additional impacts not addressed by the planned action, a checklist and threshold determination shall be required. [Ord. 11-24 (Att. A); Ord. 14-18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1]
