Staff requests that the BoCC hold this public hearing on Monday, July 20, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. during the regular BoCC meeting to hear the staff report, take public testimony, and take action to either approve or deny pending application CUA2025‑00001. Program requirements specify that notice of the public hearing must be published in a local newspaper at least once, no fewer than ten days prior to the hearing date. The attached notice, to be scheduled for publication on July 1, 2026, satisfies this requirement. ANALYSIS: Staff has prepared the attached public notice and staff report reviewing and analyzing the pending application under the Open Space Tax Program, and making recommendations to the BoCC on either approval or denial, as well as the Public Benefit Rating for the application, which shall determine the amount of tax benefit each property owner should receive per the Jefferson County Assessor. FISCAL IMPACT: This request has no fiscal impact. If approved, the pending open space applications would affect the assessed property taxes of the parcel; however, such impacts are allowable under the program in exchange for the public benefits of preserving and protecting open space lands. These benefits include conserving high-value lands such as critical and environmentally sensitive areas, providing public access, supporting transfer of development rights, and advancing the goals of the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan. The parcel is currently assessed as Designated Forest Land (DFL). RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Commissioners approve the attached notice for publication, and review the staff report prior to the public hearing.

JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Greg Brotherton, Chair Open Space Tax Program Application – CUA2025-00001 Page | 1 STAFF REPORT TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Re: Current Use Tax Assessment (CUA) ) FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS Open Space/Open Space Application ) AND PROPOSED ) RECOMMENDATIONS ) Case No.: CUA2025-00001 Jefferson Land Trust ) Parcel Number 602352002 ) BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Open Space Taxation Act, enacted in 1970, allows property owners to have their open space, agricultural, and timber lands valued at their current use rather than at their highest and best use. The Act provides a property tax reduction as an incentive to preserve certain types of lands in their current use, when such preservation will provide a public and/or environmental benefit. Chapter 84.34 RCW authorizes the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners (BoCC) to adopt an open space program and public benefit rating system for evaluating lands proposed for open space current use assessment. Resolution No. 82-91, adopted on August 12, 1991, and has guided citizens and the county in processing applications for the Open Space Tax Program. In 1995, Resolution No. 75-95 was incorporated into the program to address tidelands, shorelands and buffers. Resolution 50‑0916‑24R further requires that a public hearing be held before the BoCC to approve or deny any application for classification of open space land under the Open Space Tax Program. Applications for Current Use Assessment are submitted through the Department of Community Development (DCD), but they are not considered Land Use applications under the Jefferson County Code. DCD evaluates each property using the Public Benefit Rating System (PBRS), while the Assessor determines the potential property tax reduction based on the resulting point total. Together, DCD and the Assessor develop a recommendation regarding whether the property should be approved for inclusion in the program and the amount of tax benefit the property owner may receive. The BoCC then reviews the recommendation and, upon approval, signs an Open Space Tax Agreement with the property owner APPLICATION SUMMARY Property Owner and Address Parcel Number and size Abbreviated Legal Description and Site Location Zoning Jefferson Land Trust Attn: Sarah Spaeth, Director of Conservation 1033 Lawrence St Port Townsend, WA 98368 602352002 Approximately 27.54 acres S35 T26 R2W Lot 3(Less HWY & Tax 14) subj/restrictive ease AF#657607 Located at 305743 Highway 101, Brinnon 98320 AL-20 PUBLIC BENEFIT RATING SYSTEM To evaluate the benefits of the proposed property, Part IV (Open Space Lands) of Resolution 82-91 uses a set of evaluation elements such as resources, site assess, transfer of development rights, county policy goals, and shoreland buffers. If these elements are present on the property, they may be claimed through a point Open Space Tax Program Application – CUA2025-00001 Page | 2 system to determine the total score. The total number of points is then used to determine the rating and property’s current use value as a percentage of the market value. A minimum of 5 and a maximum of 12 points are required to qualify for enrollment in the program. Based on the submitted PBRS worksheet, the application has been evaluated under the PBRS as described below (see also attached PBRS worksheet). Staff evaluates the worksheet using the detailed criteria outlined in Part IV, Sections V and VI of Resolution 82-91. PBRS Summary Table Evaluation Elements CUA2025-00001 Points High and Low Priority Resources 4 Access 1 Transfer of Development Rights 6 County Policy Goals 1 Shorelands and Buffers N/A 1 Total Points (not less than 5 and not to exceed 12) 12 Current Use Assessment Valuation Schedule (percent of market value) 10% PBRS ANALYSIS 1 Pursuant to Resolution 75-95, eligibility for this category requires a minimum undisturbed width and depth of 200 feet of native vegetation adjacent to marine waters, backed by Designated Forest Land (DFL). The subject shoreline meets only the minimum width requirement. In addition, only the upper portion of the property, located west of Highway 101, is currently enrolled in the DFL program. A minimum 100-foot road right-of-way separates this upper portion from the waterfront portion, so the area east of Highway 101 does not qualify for the Shorelands and Buffers element. Open Space Tax Program Application – CUA2025-00001 Page | 3 Applicant’s Statement: Jefferson Land Trust seeks to keep this undeveloped 27.54-acre forested parcel just north of Brinnon on the tax rolls. Because protection of forest and shoreline habitat and water quality values requires management that excludes commercial timber harvest, the current DFL tax classification is no longer appropriate. The Land Trust is therefore requesting that the property be reclassified as Open Space/Open Space under the County's Open Space Tax Program, based on the property's attributes, whose long-term protection under Land Trust ownership will provide significant public benefit in perpetuity. The conservation easement was acquired by the US Navy in 2022 and recorded under Auditor’s File Number 657607. The recorded Grant Deed of Conservation Easement permanently protects the property’s conservation values, including scenic, natural, open space, water quality, mature and old growth forest, riparian habitat, wildlife corridor habitat and marine shoreline resources. The easement restricts a range of activities, including any residential, agricultural, commercial, or industrial development or use. Most of the development rights have been transfer to the US Navy, the grantee of the Easement. PBRS Detail: This parcel has more than 800 feet of rocky, low-bluff shoreline adjacent to state-owned tidelands leased for shellfish production. The forested area contains mature second-growth stands with a diverse range of species, including several large mother trees that may be old growth. Wildlife use documented in the broader area includes elk, bear and spotted owls. The undeveloped low-bluff shoreline is considered critical habitat for wildlife as well as for eelgrass and other macroalgae. A seasonal stream and riparian corridor on the property connect the waters of Hood Canal with the forested uplands. Retaining the forest and preventing development will limit runoff and associated siltation of Hood Canal, helping protect the priority aquatic shoreline habitat for shellfish and other species. Maintaining the forested condition also allows precipitation a greater opportunity to infiltrate and recharge groundwater as precipitation patterns shift with climate change. Soils will be protected, the shoreline and beach will remain undeveloped, and the tidelands will benefit. The parcel lies approximately one-quarter mile from the expanse of the Olympic National Forest, and a 20- acre Washington State Parks property shares a corner with this parcel, contributing to regional habitat connectivity and wildlife movement corridors. Highway 101 (classified as a Washington State, and a Pacific Coast, Scenic Byway), passes through the property, which is also within the Hood Canal and Coyle Peninsula viewsheds. Under the PBRS, a total of 12 points are possible for this application, corresponding to a tax benefit equal to 10 percent of the property’s market value under the current use assessment valuation schedule. STAFF FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS 1. Processing of the subject application is in accordance with the established procedures and criteria of the Jefferson County Open Space Tax Program and RCW 84.34.037. 2.

In Jefferson County, public defense services have been provided by a non-profit organization called Jefferson Associated Counsel (JAC). The County's current contract with them was approved on February 23, 2025 and is in effect until December 31, 2028. ANALYSIS: JAC Director Richard Davies contacted the County to state there was a typographical error in the contract on page 16, in TABLE 3. In the 2028 column, the contract states 5.0 FTEs for legal services, when it should have read 4.5 FTEs. When the contract was adjusted from 5 years to 3 years, the FTEs were not adjusted. The proposed amendment corrects this. FISCAL IMPACT: The County will continue to pay per the contracted amount. RECOMMENDATION: Staff requests that the Commissioners approve the attached amendment.

General Description. Contractor shall provide legal representation in compliance with Standards for Indigent Defense, RCW Chapter 10.101, and the Rules of Professional Conduct to all indigent defendants charged under ordinances of the County and City of Port Townsend, and the laws of Washington State who qualify for appointed counsel as appointed by the Court. The Contractor shall provide legal representation in Superior Court, Juvenile Court and District Court for certain indigent defenders including: Adult Superior Court/Felony, including Drug Court; Juvenile and Family Court Offender and Civil matters, including but not limited to Juvenile offenders, Juvenile civil matters including youth at risk,juvenile truancy, juvenile dependency, guardianship, and family support contempt.

Behavioral Health Court, and other therapeutic courts that may be established by the County.

Such cases include domestic violence cases. The Contractor, or subcontractor of the Contractor, shall provide criminal defense services at in-custody bail hearings, and shall be available to talk and meet with indigent defendants in the Jefferson County Jail. Said representation may be in person, or may include telephonic or video proceedings.

Washington Appellate cases, except that as part of an existing case, the Contractor shall assist clients in filing Notice of Appeal and initiate the process by which an appropriate agency can arrange for appellate counsel. B. Caseload and Points Per Case. The Contractor shall provide indigent defense for cases based on a total annual maximum caseload for 4.5 attorney FTEs.

For purposes of tracking caseload and cases above or below the caseload, the weighted scale shown in Appendix B to the WSBA Standards for Indigent Defense shall be used to assign a point value to each case A "case" is defined as the filing of a document with the court naming a person as defendant or respondent, to which a public defense attorney is appointed in order to provide representation. Case count is defined by incident date. A single individual charged with several charges arising from one event shall be counted as one case for caseload tracking purposes although the charges are written on two or more citations, unless the charges are severed for trial. Any series of events that are charged under a single cause number shall be considered as one case for caseload tracking purposes although the events may have occurred on different dates, unless the charges are severed for trial. A case is counted when the Court screens the defendant for eligibility and appoints the Contractor, or the Judge directly appoints the Contractor from the bench. When two attorneys are assigned to a case, it shall be counted as part of each attorney's caseload. Representation at therapeutic courts, arraignment calendars, and court dockets without expectation of further or continuing representation shall be assessed and calculated as a percentage of the assumed 1,650 caseload hours per FTE, per the WSBA Standard for Indigent Defense. When an attorney's representation ends prior to the entry of a final order or judgment,the Contractor's administrator shall determine the case credit value to be awarded based on the amount of time each attorney contributes. For example, counsel has been appointed, but defendant hires their own attorney or counsel withdraws due to conflict of interest. See CrR 3.1.6(B)(i), CrRLJ 3.1.6(B)(i), or JuCR 9.2.6(B)(i). Reappointment of a previously appointed attorney to a case in which a bench warrant was issued does not count as a new case if the warrant was issued within the twelve months prior to the reappointment.New cases credits can be awarded as approved by the Contractor's administrator on a case-by-case basis. C. Screening. Determination of indigency for eligibility for appointed counsel for the Contract shall be determined by the court.

PUBLIC DEFENSE AGREEMENT FOR 2026-2028 Page 18 of 18 JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS CONSENT AGENDA REQUEST TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Josh D. Peters,County Administrator DATE: February 23,2025 SUBJECT: CONTRACT APPROVAL: Public Defense Services 2026-2028 STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Washington State Constitution affords the right to criminal defense, irrespective of the ability to pay for legal representation. In Jefferson County, public defense services have been provided by a non-profit organization called Jefferson Associated Counsel (JAC). The current agreement expired at the end of 2025, with an automatic two-month extension.The Board meeting on February 23, 2026, is the last Board meeting available in February for approval of a new contract for public defense services. The proposed contract is for three years: 2026-2028. There is a provision for a potential two-year extension for 2029-2030, which would likely be contemplated in 2028. ANALYSIS: For background on public defense in Washington State, see the following Municipal Research and Services Center of Washington (MRSC)webpage article: MRSC - 8/28/2025 - Public Defense Standards Are Changing: Part 2 https: 'mrsc.org/stay-informed/mrsc-insightt'august-2025/public-defense-standards-part-2 The proposed contract is consistent with 2025 Washington State Supreme Court orders regarding caseload standards for public defenders. FISCAL IMPACT: Jefferson County's costs for public defense have growth substantially over the last decade and are expected to grow at an even higher rate over the next decade, pursuant to the 10-year implementation timeframe for new court-ordered caseload standards. According to information provided by JAC,Jefferson County paid JAC $602,271 in 2016 for public defense services. The proposed contract is valued at$1,240,023 in 2026, which will require a budget appropriation in 2026 of approximately $180,000. The value of this contract in the third year(2028)will be$1,313,065, plus any annual rise in the Seattle CPI Index in the preceding year. Note that there are public defense costs for conflict attorneys,additional case-related expenses,and program administration that go beyond financial commitments within the JAC contract. Following is a table of Jefferson County public defense costs from 2016 through 2024, as reported to the Washington State Office of Public Defense(OPD): 1 Mora Casey 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2011 2022 2023 2024 General Indigent Defense 662,038.00 $562,231.32 $742,928.67 $691,818.19 $ 742,582.00 $ 797,280.76 $799.275.00 $948,186.60 $1,011,93L70 Adult Felony Adult Misdemeanor 2,405.25 $ 4,506.00 $ 9,437.:: $ 9,437.88 Juvenile Offender S Juvenile Dependency/Termination $ - $ - $ - $ - $ BECCA Cases Civil Commitments 71.09 Civil Commitments Extraordinary Criminal CaseExc.eases $ • $ - S - S - S Total 662,038.00 $562,231.32 $742,928.67 $694,223.44 $ 747,1...00 $ 806,718.64 $;4:712.:. 5948,186.60 51,011,931.70 Currently in Washington State, approximately 95%of public defense costs are borne by counties. Depending on how public defense costs are redistributed in our state over the next few years, if at all, Jefferson County may need to reassess how public defense services are provided in our county. It may be more cost-effective to have a public defense agency housed within the county structure(i.e., have public defenders as county employees). For now, continued engagement with JAC is the best option that county has for providing the constitutional right to public defense.

If awarded, this funding would be used to advance community engagement and planning work in the Brinnon community of Jefferson County. The designated floodplain and floodways within Brinnon restrict growth in the community, which limits options for residents to attain jobs, housing, and future economic development. The Hood Canal and Dosewallips River are also important salmon habitat, with multiple ESA- listed salmonids spawning in the river. This co-location of people and salmonids means that nature-based solutions (NbS) are a critical part of any flood mitigation and adaptation work. This grant will allow a full exploration of NbS options. Jefferson County's Departments of Community Development and Environmental Public Health have worked with the Brinnon community on flooding issues for a number of years. Most recently, Flood Control Assistance Account Program (FCAAP) funding was applied to develop flood mitigation and adaptation options for the core business and residential center of Brinnon. NODC is a key partner in this project, providing community engagement planning and support. FISCAL IMPACT: No impact from signing the letter. However, a successful grant application could bring additional revenue to support ongoing Brinnon floodway planning work currently being supported by our Departments of Community Development and Environmental Public Health. RECOMMENDATION: Sign the letter of support and send an electronic copy to Karen Affeld and Angela Glore (NODC) to be submitted with the NCRF grant application.

This funding will be used to advance community engagement and planning work in the Brinnon community, in the rural south end of Jefferson County. Brinnon straddles the Dosewallips River before it empties into the Hood Canal. Its location means Brinnon faces flooding threats not only from the river, but also from rising sea levels and king tides. The designated floodplain and floodways restrict growth in the community, which limits options for residents in terms of jobs,housing,and future economic development. The Hood Canal and Dosewallips River are also important salmon habitat, with multiple ESA-listed salmonids spawning in the river. This co-location of people and salmonids means that nature-based solutions(NbS)are a critical part of any flood mitigation and adaptation work. This grant will allow a full exploration of NbS options. Jefferson County's Department of Community Development and Department of Environmental Health have worked with the Brinnon community on flooding issues for a number of years. Most recently,we secured Flood Control Assistance Account Program(FCAAP)funding focused on flood mitigation and adaptation options for the core business and residential center of Brinnon.NODC is a key partner in this project, providing community engagement planning And support. We are excited to be part of this NCRF project to continue development of community plans and extend the work upriver to the Lazy C housing development, through the specific lens of nature-based solutions. In addition to the time supported by the grant funds,we are committing additional time of up to two other county employees on the Advisory Committee. We strongly encourage you to approve NODC's application for NCRF funding for our shared work in Brinnon. Brinnon's challenges require a collaborative approach across multiple agencies and jurisdictions. NODC's regional experience is a key element of this work. They are well-respected as conveners and facilitators of community conversations and planning and we look forward to continuing to work with them on this project.

The LWM design will provide hydraulic design of two LWM structures in the vicinity of the new bridge to increase channel stability and habitat. Plans and details will be developed, along with updated cost estimates,and specifications for the LWM. The stormwater design revision will provide final design, plans, and specifications for an updated stormwater system that follows the requirements of the 2024 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington, including preparation of the revised drainage report. Additionally, the project special provisions and bid items will be updated to the 2026 WSDOT Standard Specifications. DURATION The development of the LWM design, revised stormwater design, and completion of the associated changes to the PS&E (90%) are anticipated to require approximately six weeks following selection of the preferred stormwater system concept (redesigned concept being completed under original budget). Completion of the Final PS&E (100%) is anticipated to take approximately one week following County review of the 90% PS&E. SERVICES The Consultant will perform all services and furnish all materials necessary to accomplish the following work items: TASK 1—PROJECT MANAGEMENT(Sargent) This task includes the additional project management required for the stormwater system revision and LWM design. TASK 3-HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS(Watershed Science & Engineering) This task includes the additional hydraulic engineering services to support the design of LWM associated with the bridge replacement. Little Quilcene River Bridge Replacement Exhibit B Scope of Work Page 1 of 3 The hydraulic design tasks include: 1. Provide design details for LWM components that will be placed on site. Complete design calculations and determine the location and orientation of each piece and corresponding ballast/anchoring requirements. 2. Create sketches showing the design and installation requirements for LWM components to be placed at the site, to be used for preparation of CAD drawings for inclusion in the project plan set. 3. Prepare specifications for the LWM components. 4. Update the project HEC-RAS 2D hydraulic model to reflect the final crossing design grading, riprap countermeasures, and LWM, and run the model to evaluate hydraulic conditions, including 100-year water surface elevation and channel velocities. 5. Update the hydraulic design report to include the final design analysis. The Consultant will submit a draft of the final report for review. Upon receipt of comments, the Consultant will prepare a final report. Deliverable:Updated Draft and Final Hydraulic Report, with WSBIS scour code(PDF electronic file). TASK 8- PLANS, SPECIFICATION AND ESTIMATE(PS&E) This task includes the additional engineering services to prepare a revised stormwater design in accordance with the 2024 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington SWMMWW), prepare revised stormwater plans and details, prepare LWM plans and details, and make corresponding updates to the plan set. The project quantities, cost estimate, and technical specifications will also be updated to include the new design elements, and to correspond to the 2026 WSDOT Standard Specifications. 8.3 Stormwater Design (Skillings) Stormwater design for the project previously used the 2019 SWMMWW. Under the 2019 SWMMWW,the project did not trigger evaluation of all minimum requirements, only MR1-5. This meant that runoff treatment and flow control were not required to be evaluated, and only implementation of LID BMPs were required to be considered. County code and NEPA approval requires the use of the latest drainage design manual,which was released by the Department of Ecology in July 2024. With the current 2024 SWMMWW manual,the project will trigger evaluation of all minimum requirements (MR1-9), which will require the evaluation of runoff treatment BMPs and flow control BMPs. Stormwater design tasks include: Little Quilcene River Bridge Replacement Exhibit B Scope of Work Page 2 of 3 1. Update final stormwater drainage report documenting the preferred options for runoff treatment BMP and flow control BMP. Update SWPPP and prepare Final Maintenance Plan. 2. Prepare 90% plans with preferred option for runoff treatment BMP and flow control BMP (up to 5 plan sheets and up to 7 detail sheets). 3. Prepare 90%Special Provisions for stormwater design. 4. Prepare 90%Quantities Notebook and Engineer's Estimate of Probable Costs to Construct for stormwater design. 5. Incorporate 90%storm PS&E comments, prepare 100%storm PS&E package. 6.

The intent of the County Engineer's Report is to evaluate and provide preliminary design parameters/criteria to facilitate the appropriate design of the project. After agency approval of all documents required by this report the applicant shall be issued a permit by the Public Works Department. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Plat name: Seventh Avenue Acre Tracts Road /Street Name: Platted W. Foster St. Adjacent to: Assessor Parcels#994200023, Lot 126 Distance: Approximately 100 feet Sections 3,Township 29 North, Range 1 W The road is not proposed to be a County Road (Exhibit B = Site Plan). EXISTING CONDITIONS This permit would authorize the opening of a portion of the platted W. Foster St. right-of-way subject ROW), extending from milepost 0.07 to milepost 0.08,to provide access to the applicant's parcel (No. 994200023). The applicant originally applied in 2024 to open a longer segment of W. Foster St., extending from the end of the county-maintained roadway at milepost 0.04 west to their parcel. An engineer's report for that proposal was approved on August 19, 2024, under Resolution No. 46- 0819-24R. However, the applicant has not proceeded with submitting engineering plans or advancing construction for that segment. In the interim, a separate property owner has applied for and is actively pursuing an Open Right-of-Way Permit (RAP2026-00005) to open a portion of W. Foster St. that overlaps with the segment previously approved for the applicant. This newer permit (RAP2026-00005) would extend the roadway from milepost 0.04 west approximately 150 feet to milepost 0.07, providing access to parcel No. 994200040. As a result, the current proposal has been revised to focus only on the segment necessary to access the applicant's parcel. The proposed work under this permit would begin at approximately milepost 0.07—at the end of the privately maintained portion of W. Foster St.— and extend west approximately 100 feet to milepost 0.08. Page 1 of 7 Beyond the applicant's parcel, the platted right-of-way continues west for approximately 450 feet and has the potential to provide access to a total of seven parcels, including the applicant's. DESIGN STANDARDS Roads shall be constructed to the County's adopted County Road design standards: American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (most current version), Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Design Manual and Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction, Jefferson County Unified Development Code JCC 18.30.060 Grading,JCC 18.30.070 Stormwater, and JCC 18.30.080 Roads. Based on proposed use, potentially serving less than 10 parcels, the typical section required will be for a "Local Service Road" with a minimum 14 foot wide traveled way with 3 foot shoulders and 20 foot unobstructed width. The request to open this proposed segment of road is not for a county-maintained roadway, therefore, it is not required to be paved and the applicant will be responsible for the maintenance of this section of roadway. RIGHT-OF-WAY Platted right-of-way width: Sixty feet is the AASHTO recommended ROW width in rural county areas. The current ROW width as platted is 50 feet. This width appears adequate in this case. Right-of-way centerline location Roadways shall be constructed on the right-of-way centerline unless this is not feasible due to topography, environmental conditions (e.g., wetlands, water bodies, unstable slopes), or transitions to existing roads. Prior to construction, the right-of-way centerline shall be staked by a licensed professional land surveyor or located in the field based on existing monuments or property corners set by a licensed professional land surveyor. DESIGN SPEED Speed limit may be less than 25 This is a privately maintained dead-end road on public right-of-way, and no posted speed limit is required. DESIGN TRAFFIC VOLUME The projected Average Daily Traffic (ADT) per residence is between 6-10 trips per day. This segment of right-of-way, when opened, will provide access to two parcels, with the potential to serve up to 7 more in the future. Page 2 of 7 SIGHT DISTANCE Adequate sight distance for the road approach to the newly opened segment of W. Foster St. must be met based on the criteria within the WSDOT design manual, Chapter 1340 and/or the AASHTO design manual. ROADWAY CONSTRUCTION PLANS The proponent shall construct the roadway to the minimum standards depicted on the Typical Section shown in Exhibit C. The proponent shall submit road construction plans prepared and stamped by a licensed civil engineer to the Public Works Department for review prior to commencing construction. Road Construction Plan general requirements Road plans shall meet the following general requirements: Be prepared by a licensed Washington state civil engineer; Include a plan view and a profile view; A scale of 1 inch = 50 feet or less; Depict the typical section; Depict project limits; Depict right-of-way centerline; The design shall accommodate both existing and future lot access and utility service. Plan View As applicable, the plan view shall at a minimum depict: Horizontal alignment of the proposed centerline at 50 feet stations; Horizontal curve data; Cut and/or fill slopes; Intersection design; Drainage facilities: Existing and proposed, including culvert size, length, and material; centerline station and elevation; slope, and skew angle; Stormwater management facilities; Utilities: Existing and proposed, both above and below ground; and Any existing or proposed features that would be affected by the proposed road construction, whether in or outside of the right-of-way. Profile View As applicable, the profile view shall at a minimum depict: Existing elevations and proposed finished grades at 50 feet stations; Vertical curve data; and Drainage facilities. Page 3 of 7 MINIMUM STRUCTURAL SECTION Privately-maintained roads: The typical minimum cross-section consists of 4 inches compacted gravel base, 4 inches crushed surfacing base, and 2 inches compacted crushed surfacing. A thicker structural section may be required by Public Works based on roadway function or site soils. An alternative structural section may be proposed based on analysis by a licensed civil engineer. All materials used in the construction of the structural section shall meet the requirements of the WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction. SURFACING Privately-maintained roads: An improved roadway surface (asphalt or bituminous surface treatment) is not required. MATERIALS TESTING Privately-maintained roads: The applicant shall be responsible for ensuring that materials and construction methods conform to WSDOT Standard Specifications. At its discretion,the Public Works Department may direct replacement of materials that do not meet specifications or require testing of materials that appear not to meet specifications. CROSS SLOPES Local Service Roads and Rural Access Roads shall either be crowned at the centerline with -2% cross slopes or have a continuous -2% cross slope from shoulder to shoulder. Stormwater design must be taken into consideration when determining appropriate cross slope. ROAD GRADE Privately-maintained roads: Road grades shall not exceed 12% or require review without prior approval by the appropriate Fire District. Roads grades exceeding 12% may require an improved roadway surface, either hot mix asphalt HMA) or bituminous surface treatment (BST). Road grades shall not exceed 15%. EMERGENCY TURNAROUNDS A turnaround area is required and shall conform to the Public Works Department's adopted design standards. See Exhibit D. HORIZONTAL CLEARANCE TO OBSTRUCTIONS For roads with a posted speed limit of 25 MPH or less, a 10 feet wide clear zone shall be maintained between the edge of traveled way and any obstructions. UTILITIES Utility installations shall meet the requirements of the Jefferson County Code, Chapter 13.56 Utilities. Any utilities installed within the right-of-way require review and approval for Page 4 of 7 installation and location within the right-of-way as determined through the Department of Public Works utility permit process. STREET LIGHTING No street lighting is required. If the Applicant desires to install a street light, all costs associated with the installation and maintenance are the responsibility of the Applicant and shall be coordinated with the Jefferson County PUD#1. ROAD APPROACHES Road plans shall depict proposed road approaches (Exhibit E) to the private residences to be served. Approaches shall be an integral part of the roadway and constructed at locations acceptable to the parcel owner(s). GATES This road will not be maintained at public expense. The Applicant will be required to maintain the roadway. Installation of gates, barriers, or signs that block the public's use of this right-of- way after the road is constructed are NOT allowed. DRAINAGE, EROSION CONTROL, AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The Jefferson County Unified Development Code, Section 18.30.070 Stormwater Management Standards adopts the standards of the Washington Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (most current version). A Stormwater Management Permit is required for projects that exceed 2,000 square feet of impervious surface or 7,000 square feet of land-disturbing activity. See Exhibit F for comments from the Department of Community Development. The proponent shall contact the Jefferson County Department of Community Development to discuss permit requirements and application procedures: Jefferson County Department of Community Development 612 Sheridan Street Port Townsend, WA 98368 360) 379-4450 ROAD AND STORMWATER MAINTENANCE AND NO PROTEST AGREEMENT A Road and Stormwater Maintenance and No Protest Agreement is required for this facility to be located on public right-of-way. Any privately maintained road and stormwater facility on public right-of-way shall be maintained at the owners' expense and as outlined in the Road &Stormwater Facility Maintenance and No Protest Agreement. A No Protest Agreement is required for any privately maintained road on public right-of-way. The applicant has applied for a permit to construct a privately-maintained gravel roadway on public right-of-way. The County Engineer has recommended that this request be approved. It is recognized that this private road does not meet current County road standards for a public roadway which would require a wider roadway Page 5 of 7 with an asphalt paved or bituminous surface. In consideration of the County agreeing to waive the requirements to construct to full public road standards, the Grantor must also enter into an agreement with the County not to protest the formation of a Road Improvement District (RID) or other pro rata cost sharing mechanism to improve the roadway in the future should improvements become necessary whether proposed by petition or by resolution of the Board of County Commissioners or by both petition and resolution. The Grantor(s) further agree to join in any proposed petition for such road improvements. See Exhibit G for this Agreement. ROADWAY CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTATION, CERTIFICATION,AND MONUMENTATION Construction Documentation The applicant shall provide the Public Works Department with complete road plans in electronic format to scale on 11x17 inch paper. Following completion of roadway construction, the proponent shall submit to Public Works complete "As-Built" or "As Constructed" record drawings. The drawings shall reflect any changes made to the original design. The proponent or designee shall keep detailed records of the as constructed locations of all surface and subsurface facilities to be included on the record As-Built or As-Constructed drawings. Construction Certification Certain items will need to be inspected during construction of these roadways. These requirements will be identified once complete plans have been submitted to Public Works for review. Following completion of roadway construction the proponent shall submit to Public Works a letter, affixed with the professional stamp of the Engineer of Record, certifying that the roadway and stormwater management facilities have been constructed in accordance with the design plans and specifications and all applicable federal, state and local agency requirements. PERMIT This report is not a Permit. After the review and approval of all documents, plans, and/or reports required by this report, and within three (3) years from the date of Board of County Commissioners approval of this report, and prior to initiating construction, the applicant shall be issued a permit by the Public Works Department. This Permit specifically outlines the arrangement between the applicant and the County for work on public right-of-way by the applicant. The Permit will specify insurance and bonding requirements, general provisions, and other requirements that are applicable for work to be performed in County right-of-way. The Permit, once issued, will be valid for three years from the date it is issued. The road right-of-way will not be considered to be opened until all conditions of the permit are met and the permit is finalized. A sample copy of a Permit is attached as Exhibit H OTHER PERMITS Other permits and/or environmental review may be required for this project per Jefferson County Unified Development Code (UDC). Any questions concerning the necessity of other Page 6 of 7 permits and/or environmental review and the processes should be directed to the Jefferson County Department of Community Development, 612 Sheridan Street, Port Townsend, WA 98368, Phone (360) 379-4450. RECOMMENDATION: Public Works recommends that this request to open County right-of-way to the standards and requirements listed above be approved. This recommendation will be forwarded to the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners for approval by way of Resolution (Draft Exhibit I). Once completed, inspected and all permit conditions met, the permit will be put in a Final' status and this road will be considered to be opened but will be privately maintained and not become part of the County road system. The right-of-way, however, is public and shall remain open to the public. Z6 Monte Reinders, P.E.

Because Protection Island holds such extraordinary ecological significance, it is a source of significant regional pride for both the Tribe and the broader Jefferson County community. The Tribe maintains profound historical and cultural ties to the island and the surrounding waters. The land transfer legislation recognizes the Tribe's longstanding connections and represents an important step toward restoring ancestral connections and honoring the Tribe's sovereign relationship with Protection Island. Some residents of Jefferson County and relatives of folks who were involved with the grassroots campaign to create these Wildlife Refuges have raised questions and concerns about transferring these areas out of Federal management. The Commissioners have discussed this issue and request over the past month. During this time we've heard from the community regarding this request. On June 22nd we will be joined by Chairman Ron Allen and other tribal representatives to discuss the proposed Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe Land Transfer Act of 2026. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact. RECOMMENDATION: Discuss this request with Jamestown S'Klallam tribe leadership and determine whether to sign letters of support to Representative Emily Randall, Senator Maria Cantwell, and Senator Patty Murray regarding the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe Land Transfer Act of 2026.

The Tribe is a highly collaborative and well-respected partner to Jefferson County,and we recognize the deep historical and cultural connections that the Tribe maintains with the lands and waters impacted by this legislation. These sites are not only central to the Tribe's heritage but are also integral to the ecological health and quality of life for our entire region. Protection Island, located within Jefferson County, is of particular importance to our constituents. We ask that you ensure the protection of the natural resources on Protection Island in the change of management proposed in this Act for the areas. Protection Island is one of the rare and crucial places where seabirds can breed without any human interference. The island's ecological significance stems from several key factors: Seabird Breeding Haven: It supports the third-largest rhinoceros auklet colony in North America and is one of the last two breeding sites for tufted puffins in the Salish Sea. Marine Mammal Sanctuary: The island is a major hauling-out area for harbor seals and was the first location in Washington where northern elephant seals were observed giving birth. Crucial Nesting Grounds: It acts as a nesting site for bald eagles and features the largest glaucous- winged gull colony in Washington state. The waters surrounding the island also provide essential grounds for a variety of marine mammals,and the island's shorelines support a WA Department of Natural Resources designated marine aquatic reserve. Because Protection Island holds such extraordinary ecological significance, it is a source of significant regional pride for both the Tribe and the broader Jefferson County community. The Tribe maintains profound historical and cultural ties to the island and the surrounding waters. The land transfer legislation recognizes the Tribe's Wage longstanding connections and represents an important step toward restoring ancestral connections and honoring the Tribe's sovereign relationship with Protection Island. Through the Tribe's 2024 self-governance agreement with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and its expenditure of its own supplemental funds,the Tribe has demonstrated a strong financial commitment to improving Protection Island for the benefit of researchers and the greater Jefferson County area alike. Since assuming management of the island,the Tribe has already revitalized habitat research studies,rebuilt the access road,and initiated vegetative management to support island prairie habitat. We are confident that upon transfer into trust status,the Tribe will continue to manage both former Refuges to a standard that will meet or exceed federal requirements. Jefferson County has familiarity with the Tribe's ability to manage lands through the Tamanowas Rock Sanctuary and trail network, which are open to the public and well monitored by the Tribe. Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe and Jefferson County Land Trust partnered on the acquisition of Tamanowas Rock sanctuary lands from 2009—2012 and the area showcases the Tribe's ability to steward lands for cultural purposes, conservation and public access. The County further notes that Protection Island is not currently subject to local property taxation as federal public land and if the island is transferred into trust status on behalf of the Tribe, it will not result in any loss of property tax revenue to the County. However,the Tribe has agreed to assume through the legislation the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's existing obligations to Jefferson County for payment in lieu of taxes and refuge revenue sharing,at a prorated rate tied to the federal statutory payment rate,to ensure that the County will continue to receive these valuable payments following transfer. This is a key consideration in the Board of County Commissioner's decision to support the legislation,and the County is pleased that the land transfer is structured to protect Jefferson County from any potential negative fiscal impact. For these reasons,Jefferson County respectfully urges the delegation to support and advance"The Jamestown Land Transfer Act of 2026."We appreciate your consideration of this legislation and your ongoing commitment to constructive and locally-driven solutions that will benefit Tribal Nations and all residents within the State of Washington.

Acquisitions from willing sellers along the potential avulsion pathway may provide expanded restoration options leading toimprovedfloodplainfunctions. Potentially,the meander bend could be linked via a side channel complex to the 100' bridge(s). With separate funding,the County and Brinnon community are collaborating with partners to develop an action plan to meetfloodriskreductionandhabitatimprovementsneedstoincludefutureacquisitionpriorities.

Page 2 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 2: How does this project fit within your regional recovery plan and/or local lead entity's strategy to restore or protect salmonid habitat?Cite section and page number. In the lower 1.25 miles of the Dosewallips River,habitat for salmon in the single mainstem especially along the along northern shoreline and natural floodplain processes-are impaired by development-related changes,bank armoring,sediment aggradation,the Hwy 101 Bridge and causeway,as well as a lack of stable large wood jams.Area demand for housing has been increasing,and this may intensify if and when the Pleasant Harbor Master Planned Resort breaks ground.Of the195-acre Brinnon Village area,only about thirty acres lie outside of FEMA AE or A zones.Over fifty acres(25%),including the location of several important businesses,fall within the floodway.The Dosewallips subpopulation of ESA-threatened Summer Chum Salmon is vulnerable due to both low summer and high winter flows.The future of Mid Hood Canal Chinook salmon is also very tenuous. Washington State Parks(WSP) is the primary landowner along the south-side shoreline and has been collaborating with Wild Fish Conservancy to relocate improvements and restore habitat along the south shore and in portions of the estuary,but a comprehensive approach to restoring the lower river is needed. The 2026 Hood Canal Salmon Recovery Program Priorities and Immediate Needs for the Dosewallips lists"Protection of highly functioning habitat,LWD structures,Berm/dike removal to re-establish estuarine and freshwater habitat connectivity, Protect and restore riparian and floodplains"on page 5 as well as"Transportation infrastructure,Channel pattern and CMZ,Invasives and forest maturity"as other potential related actions.This proposed project plans for and initiates these intended outcomes. It will expand upon an existing County program to improve resiliency(with respect to habitat and flood/erosion risk) in the Brinnon Reach by initiating an acquisition program in coordination with Brinnon's South County Task Force(all floodplain topics)and Dosewallips Collaborative habitat-focused)groups. 3: Is this project part of a larger overall project? Yes 3a: How does this project fit into the sequencing of the larger project? This project follows the bulk of work associated with RCO 23-1062P,the Brinnon Reach Assessment&Conceptual Design project. It presents the results of assessments,describes the hydraulic model for the reach,and tested hypothetical scenarios to improve habitat,especially upstream of US- 101.The resulting Existing Conditions&Basis of Design report is currently under review but will be uploaded to Attachments asap. In addition,the proposed project will inform updates from other past work in the lower mile and utilize information provided in past studies and plans,including the 2002 Brinnon Subarea Plan;2004 Lower Dosewallips Reach Analysis(WDFW),2005 Hydrolgeologic Study(WRIA 16),2005 Dosewallips River Habitat Assessment PGSKT);2009 Dosewallips Comprehensive Flood Hazard Management Plan JC),2021 Lazy C/Powerlines Resiliency Plan (JC).The larger project is to work with the community to address impairments to salmon habitat on a near- watershed basis(below ONP).

PROPOSAL QUESTIONS 1: Problem statement.What are the problems your project seeks to address?Include the source and scale of each problem.Describe the site,reach,and watershed conditions. Describe how those conditions impact salmon populations.Include current and historic factors important to understand the problems. The designated floodway of the Dosewallips River in the lower Brinnon Reach upstream of US-101 has been developed for residential housing,small businesses,public facilities and infrastructure and roadways.The river is constrained by an existing rock berm through this area,cutting off channel migration on river left. Dosewallips State Park,including the primary campground are located on river right.The proposed,phase 1 acquisitions will begin the process of returning the floodway to open space,vacating roads,and reconnecting portions of the floodway with the river in support of natural floodplain processes.The intention is to,working with willing sellers,eventually create high functioning in-channel habitat in the designated floodway where a neighborhood currently exists between the river and Corey Lane.Currently,the lower Dosewallips River is simplified from the removal of large wood through the years as well as bank armoring and a lack of riparian forest. Page 6 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 2: Describe the limiting factors,and/or ecological concerns,and limiting life stages(by fish species)that your project expects to address. Critical life stages for chum and Chinook in the Dosewallips River have been identified as spawning, incubation and adult holding(Shared Strategy 2007). Incubation and rearing success are driven by large wood and moderate peak flows,absence of excessive fines in spawning gravels,moderate or low levels of scour,and access to off-channel and slow-water floodplain habitats(Brewer et al.2005). Loss of riparian forest has also been noted for the Dosewallips watershed.The floodplain in the lower reaches of the river has been converted to agriculture,forestry,urban commercial and rural residential uses(Correa 2003).These changes in land use have reduced the side channel and floodplain wetland habitat in the project reach and reduced the recruitment of large wood that provides channel stability,sorts and retains spawning gravels,creates pools,and forces side channel creation. Chinook,as a larger species,require larger substrate for spawning and deep holding pools with cover for adult migration. Egg incubation is affected by bed scour during high flows and excessive fine sediment deposition which can smother redds.Juvenile Chinook remain in the river for approximately 4 months and depend on low velocity habitat and cover for rearing.The majority ofjuvenile Chinook in the Dosewallips and other coastal rivers exhibit the ocean- type life history and out-migrate after about 4 months of rearing in freshwater.The factors most limiting Chinook production in the Dosewallips River are estuarine degradation, habitat complexity and channel conditions,high water scour and fine sediment and floodplain disconnection.These mostly occur in the lower reaches of the river and the estuary habitat since the upper watershed is less developed (Shared Strategy 2007).Chum salmon have similar requirements for deep pools with cover for adult holding,but they use slightly smaller gravels for spawning than Chinook.While most Chinook spawn in mainstem river channels,chum salmon are more likely to spawn in lower velocity areas with smaller substrate,which may include mainstem habitat or smaller creeks and side channels. Incubation for chum is also limited by bed scour from high flows,perhaps to a greater extent than Chinook based on the chum behavior of mass spawning and redd superimposition.Spawning success for chum is linked to suitable spawning gravel, adequate stream flows and water temperatures,along with habitat quality in the form of large wood for cover and holding pools for returning adults to rest.Excessive fine sediment is also a concern for chum eggs in terms of suffocation.Since chum fry out-migrate upon emergence,their dependance on adequate riverine rearing habitat is less than that of Chinook,but they still need safe pathways to out-migrate through the mainstem channel and have a higher need for sufficient estuarine and nearshore habitat.Chum spawning is in the greatest concentrations in the lowest 2.5 miles of the Dosewallips River. Page 7 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 3: Project Goals.What are the project goals?The goal of the project should be to solve identified problems by addressing the root causes.Then clearly state the desired future condition. Include which species and life stages will benefit from the outcome,and the time of year the benefits will be realized. Example Goals and Objectives The primary project goal is to initiate a Phase 1 willing seller landowner acquisition program for the Dosewallips River's designated Floodway to,over time,expand habitat restoration options in the Brinnon Reach.These may ultimately include improved floodplain connectivity by way of a levee set back from the shoreline or more comprehensive restoration of the floodway with the activation or reactivation of disconnected distributary and/or side channels. Near-term goals are to work with willing sellers to purchase three or more properties within the designated floodway between Corey Lane and the shoreline and to restore and hold them as protected space to support future restoration.Overall,the goal is to improve floodplain functions,restore the large wood cycle where feasible,improve water quality and reduce impacts to water quantity,and improve climate resilience in the Brinnon Reach. 4: Project Objectives.What are the project objectives?Objectives support and refine biological goals,breaking them down into smaller steps.Objectives are specific,quantifiable actions the project will complete to achieve the stated goal.Each objective should be SMART(Specific, Measurable,Achievable,Relevant, and Time-bound). Example Goals and Objectives Acquire fee simple at least 3 acres along the left bank shoreline of the Dosewallips River by 2028 from willing sellers Remove all improvements from the properties in order to make them available to future restoration projects by 2028 With landowners identify additional willing sellers and their preferred acquisition approaches and timing by 2028 Project manager will communicate with Jefferson County's FCAA project participants and consultants,property owners and HCLE to determine appropriate extent of acquisitions to support meaningful habitat restoration and transportation corridor improvements ongoing) Page 8 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 5: Scope of work and deliverables.Provide a detailed description of each project task/element.With each task/element,identify who will be responsible for each,what the deliverables will be, and the schedule for completion. Process RCO agreement:within 2 months With landowners and in collaboration with the South County Task Force and Dosewallips River Collaborative groups,identify additional willing sellers of parcels in the floodway within the Brinnon Reach:ongoing Establish and/or maintain communications with landowners: ongoing Hold a meeting of the Dosewallips River Collaborative:Spring 2027 Contract with appraisers,Phase I ESA consultants,surveyors,cultural resources specialists and others as needed to complete due diligence for previously identified property acquisitions(Spring 2027) Obtain commissioners' authorization to present offers to willing sellers(Spring 2027) Produce signed purchase and sale agreements(Spring 2027) Conduct cultural resources surveys(Summer 2027) Contact demolition or home relocation (Summer 2027) Bid demolition/relocation (Fall 2027) Remove impervious surfaces and restore to stabile,vegetated open space to hold for future restoration (Winter/Spring 2028) Control for noxious weeds and vegetation overgrowth (ongoing after purchase) 6: Assumptions and Constraints.What are the assumptions and physical constraints that could impact whether you achieve your objectives?Assumptions and constrains are external conditions that are not under the direct control of the project,but directly impact the outcome of the project.These may include ecological and geomorphic factors,land use constraints,public acceptance of the project,delays,or other factors. How will you address these issues if they arise? The primary assumptions are that the willing sellers will find the County's offers acceptable and that the acquisitions and other deliverables can be completed within the grant timeframe.Otherwise,we are assuming that enough land can be acquired and returned to open space to eventually facilitate a restoration project that results in large wood installations and enhanced connectivity with the floodplain within the designated floodway. 7: Previous Lessons Learned.How have lessons learned from completed projects or monitoring studies informed this project? Jefferson County has a long history of acquisitions on the Dosewallips and Big Quilcene floodplain,and lessons learned will be applied to this project to improve communications with landowners,to align expectations with the process,and to complete milestones in a timely and coordinated way. Page 9 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 8: Project Alternatives. Describe the alternatives considered and why the preferred was chosen. The priority properties to acquire are located on the floodway closest to the shoreline and upstream of the main span of US-101 over the Dosewallips. Depending on individual landowner preferences and the direction that the overall community takes in addressing flood risk and habitat deficiencies,alternatives to this approach could involve properties in the estuary or along any of the creek or subsurface waterways across the Brinnon delta. 9: How were stakeholders consulted in the development of this project?Identify the stakeholders,their concerns or feedback, and how those concerns were addressed. The process by which this project became feasible is a result of numerous meetings in the past 2-3 years of the Dosewallips River Collaborative and South County Task force,and between the county and individuals,landowners,State Parks and,especially,a well- attended site visit to the Brinnon berm in July of 2025 that increased awareness and acceptance of the flood risks along the Brinnon shoreline. 10: Climate Change. Does your project address or accommodate the anticipated effects of climate change? Yes 10a: How will your project be climate resilient given future conditions? The project will remove insurable structures from the floodway which will make the remaining insurable structures less vulnerable during floods.The project will allow greater flexibility in combining habitat gains with flood risk reduction. 10b: How will your project increase habitat and species adaptability? This project is a necessary first step to making flood-prone properties available to restoration actions that will increase habitat and species adaptability by improving habitat abundance and complexity. 11: Project Team Experience. Describe the project management team's experience managing this type of project. Describe other projects where they have successfully used a similar approach. JCPH has managed salmon habitat acquisition projects on the Dosewallips and Big Quilcene rivers,beginning in 2004. Page 10 of 17 04/23/2026 Project Factsheet 12: Veteran Involvement.Will veterans(including the veterans conservation corps) be involved in the project?If yes,please describe. No ACQUISITION SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONS 1: Is this a reach-scale or geographic envelope project? Yes 1a: Identify the target parcels. Parcels between the Dosewallips River and Corey Lane and shoreline parcels elsewhere within the designated floodway.Specifically,this phase I project targets two properties currently on the market and one additional residential property. 1b: How will you prioritize acquisitions? How are the region,lead entity,or other technical stakeholders involved in prioritization? We would like to build upstream and across the floodway in a logical manner from the nucleus of these three initial acquisitions so that habitat gains,cost effectiveness,and community support will be maximized. Restoration/flood risk reduction scenarios using a 2-D model developed as part of RCO#23- 1062P will assist in determining prioritization of additional parcels. 2: Will this project use grant funds(or match)to acquire upland acreage? No 3: Describe the long-term stewardship and maintenance obligations for the acquisition project. After demolition and cleanup,stewardship will be limited to controlling invasive plants and maintaining grassy vegetation until more comprehensive restoration can occur.

The Deverin property contains 4 parcels on the Dosewallips River floodway immediately landward of a County-owned shoreline parcel(APN#941700324)upstream of SR 101 and the main bridge span.A channel migration barrier(berm) has been constructed by WSDOT on the County-owned parcel)that is slowly degrading over time.Water and fine sediment pass through and possibly over the berm. Floodplain soils are present. The property was developed as pasture by the Corey family decades ago and contains no significant active fish habitat. Buildings were constructed beginning in 1994.The attached CMZ report from the Bureau of Reclamation (2004) describes the reach,avulsion hazard areas,human-caused changes and relict channels beginning on page 20.The area T-sheet is also attached and shows extensive marshy areas in the vicinity of this parcel. Note that the location shown on the T Sheet for the US-101 Bridge is well upstream of its current location. 2: Describe adjacent land uses.

Following a duly noticed public hearing on May 13, 2026,the Planning Commission voted 6 in favor, 0 opposed, and 3 absent to recommend adoption of the CP and UDC amendments and has transmitted those recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners. The Board is requested to receive a progress update from staff and to consider whether to schedule a public hearing on the proposed CP and UDC amendments. If the Board wishes to proceed to a public hearing, a Notice of Public Hearing has been prepared for Board approval and publication. ANALYSIS: Jefferson County is required under the Growth Management Act (RCW 36.70A)to periodically update its Comprehensive Plan. The current update has been underway for nearly three years and addresses community needs related to housing, economic development, parks and recreation, utilities, transportation, natural resource stewardship, and expected population growth through 2045. Public Hearing versions of the CP and UDC were completed on April 15, 2026. A SEPA threshold determination was issued the same date, and the documents were distributed to agencies and interested parties. Public testimony was received during a May 13, 2026 hearing, with written comments accepted through May 15, 2026. The Planning Commission reviewed 15 comments received during the comment period. Proposed resolutions are documented in the accompanying comments matrix included in the transmittal packet. Key issues highlighted by the Planning Commission for Board consideration include: Concurrency and State Highways: The PC agrees with the Transportation Element's findings on concurrency and the County's limited authority over state highways. Based on a WSDOT letter dated May 14, 2026, the PC recommends the County address concurrency for housing projects in the Urban Growth Area(UGA). Development of a concurrency ordinance will be the next action the PC undertakes following adoption of the CP. In the interim, DCD will continue to use the SEPA process for project review. UGA Height Limits: The PC requests that the Board review height requirements in Table 3A-2 Section 18.18.050). Most Urban zones currently allow a 70-foot height limit. The PC asks whether a 70-foot height is appropriate in the UGA given fire protection capabilities for structures of that height. Middle Housing UDC Amendments: The PC reviewed and recommended a package of targeted UDC amendments focused on middle housing, responding to state legislative mandates and expanding regulatory options to encourage more diverse and affordable housing typologies. A draft Notice of Public Hearing has been prepared for Board review and approval. If the Board elects to hold a public hearing on the 2025-2045 CP and UDC amendments, the notice would be published in the official newspaper of Jefferson County. The Board should review the draft notice and, if approved, authorize staff to submit the notice for publication. FISCAL IMPACT/COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS: There are no direct fiscal impacts associated with this workshop. Publication costs for the Notice of Public Hearing, if approved, will be borne by the Department of Community Development within existing budget appropriations. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Receive a staff presentation on the status of the 2025-2045 Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update and UDC amendments. 2. Review the Planning Commission's transmittal letter, recommendations, and comments matrix. 3. Determine whether to schedule a public hearing on the proposed CP and UDC amendments and, if so, approve the draft Notice of Public Hearing for publication. REVIEWED BY: 4[16 Josh .

Based on a WSDOT letter (May 14, 2026), the PC recommends the County address concurrency for housing projects in the UGA. A concurrency ordinance will be the PC's next undertaking after CP adoption. 02 UGA Height Limits The PC requests Board review of height requirements in Table 3A-2 (§18.18.050). Most Urban zones currently allow 70-foot height limits. The PC asks whether 70 feet is appropriate given Jefferson County's fire protection capabilities for structures of that height. 03 Middle Housing UDC Amendments The PC reviewed and recommended a targeted package of UDC amendments focused on middle housing —responding to state legislative mandates and expanding regulatory options to encourage more diverse and affordable housing typologies in the UGA.

Following a comprehensive public outreach process and a duly noticed public hearing on May 13, 2026, the Planning Commission voted 6 in favor, 0 opposed, and 3 absent to approve its final recommendations for transmittal to the Board of County Commissioners after deliberation at its meeting on June 10, 2026. After a nearly three-year process, the public versions of the CP and UDC were completed on April 15, 2026. A SEPA threshold determination for the CP and UDC was issued on April 15, 2026. These documents were also routed to agencies and interested parties. Public testimony was taken on May 13, 2026 hearing. Written comments were received until May 15, 2026. In this transmittal, the PC addressed 15 comments received from April 15, 2026 to May 15, 2026. The outcome of this work is reflected in the accompanying comments matrix. All comments received during the comment period are also included in the transmittal packet. In that document, items highlighted in green indicate changes made by the Department of Community Development (DCD) prior to the June 10, 2026 meeting and agreed to by the PC; blue highlights indicate changes made by the PC at the June 10, 2026 meeting; and pink highlights indicate comments considered by the PC during June 10, 2026 that they ultimately decided did not require, or were not appropriate for, adjustment. Finally, there are a few comments highlighted in orange in the comment packet that PC did not act upon but wanted to highlight for BOCC determination. The BOCC should review these comments and may make any modification they deem appropriate. Further, the PC reviewed and agreed with the Transportation Element recommendations on concurrency and that the county had no authority on state highways as outline on page 6-10 & 6-11 of the Transportation Element. Based on the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) letter dated May 14, 2026, the PC agrees that the county should address concurrency issues for housing projects in the UGA. Developing a concurrency ordinance is the next action that the PC will undertake following adoption of the CP. Additionally, the PC requests that BOCC review height requirements for UGA development standards found in Table 3A-2 in Section 18.18.050. Except for the Urban Low Density Residential and Urban Moderate Density Residential, the other Urban zones allow a 70-foot height limit. The PC would like the BOCC to consider whether a 70-foot height is appropriate in the UGA, and whether adequate fire protection could be provided to structures of this height. The policies within the Comprehensive Plan update are intended to operate at a high level, allowing for flexibility and innovation in implementation approaches rather than prescribing specific regulatory language. At the same time, these policies are designed to be actionable and not merely aspirational. They should inform and guide County budget and planning decisions.

Si C, 2 of 2 Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 1 April 2026 Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 Staff Report Prepared by Jefferson County and BERK Consulting April 2026 Purpose of Plan & Code Update Under the Growth Management Act (GMA), each county and city must review and revise its comprehensive land use plan and associated development regulations every ten years including its population allocation and critical areas ordinances (RCW 36.70A.130(1)(a)). Jefferson County’s deadline for completing this update is December 31, 2025 (RCW 36.70A.130(5)(b)). Our Comprehensive Plan is the foundation for ensuring our community values are preserved while we proactively plan for future growth through the year 2045. The updated Plan considers the voice, vision, and future of the whole Jefferson County community, and is a 20-year blueprint for: Planning for expected population and housing growth by the year 2045. Guiding how land can be used through zoning. Responding to the community’s housing, economic, parks and recreation, utilities, and transportation needs. Stewarding our natural and environmental resources and proactively planning for climate impacts. The Comprehensive Plan is a living document. It embodies a shared vision and actionable planning policies for Jefferson County, which then provides decision-makers with the foundation of policy to make decisions every day. Proposed updates include revisions to the: Comprehensive Plan’s vision, goals, and policies consistent with community feedback and new state requirements. The updated vision and amended goals and policies will guide development, capital investments, and other decisions over the coming years. Comprehensive Plan’s various chapters and appendices with background information, analysis, and maps, charts, and tables to reflect more current data and the updated requirements under the Growth Management Act. This includes an updated Housing Element consistent with new state planning requirements, as well as a revised Future Land Use map, Capital Facilities Plan to address a range of services and infrastructure, and a new Climate Element. Updates to JCC Title 18 Unified Development Code for consistency with the Periodic Update and new state requirements, including updates to ensure capacity for housing affordable to all income levels. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 2 April 2026 Responding to New GMA Requirements The State Legislature adopted significant changes to the GMA goals and requirements in recent years. Exhibit 1 summarizes the major legislative changes, whether they apply to Jefferson County, and how revisions to the Comprehensive Plan and code proposed as part of this Periodic Update respond to the new requirements. Exhibit 1. New GMA Requirements and the Relationship to Jefferson County’s Periodic Update Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? Housing Specific Legislation HB 1220 2021) Affordable Housing, Displacement, and Racially Disparate Impacts. Requires local jurisdictions to plan for and accommodate housing affordable to all economic segments of the population, including moderate, low, very low, and extremely low income, as well as emergency shelters and permanent supportive housing, when they update their local housing element. Mandates that comprehensive plans identify land use capacity, barriers, and programs to address housing shortage. Introduces an equity lens to require jurisdictions to assess and address racially disparate impacts, displacement, and exclusion in housing, identify areas at high risk of displacement, and establish anti- displacement policies. Yes. Changes required concurrent with the Periodic Update. Amend language throughout related to equity, racially disparate impacts, displacement, vulnerable populations, and historically marginalized communities and add supporting goals and policies e.g., Policy LU-P-1.2, Policy LU-P-26.4, Goal HS-G-1, Policy HS-P-1.4, Goal HS-G-4, Policy ED-P-2.3, and Goal CE-G-18). New Appendix E-1: Land Capacity & Housing Technical Appendix reviews displacement, displacement risk, exclusions, racially disparate impacts, and barriers as well as existing and future housing needs and ways to address identified impacts, needs, and barriers (see also summaries in the Land Use and Housing elements) Increase allowed density in the ULDR, UMDR, UHDR and RVC zones, and therefore capacity, for key housing types and decreased residential setbacks in most urban zones. Allow higher density residential in the UC zone as a discretionary use to encourage horizonal mixed use Ordinance 09-1209-24 added multifamily residential development (3+ units) as a discretionary use in the UC zone). Targeted rezones from UMDR to UHDR in the UGA needed to accommodate growth targets. Add performance standards for manufactured home parks in the UGA and add Park Model language to the code in support of a wider variety of affordable housing typologies. Allow Recreational Vehicle Parks including Park Models) as a discretionary use in the UC and VOC zones. Add emergency and permanent supportive housing as specific use types in JCC 18.15.040 Table 3-1 and allow outright in all zones that allow hotels/motels UC, VOC, and RVC) and conditionally in the rural residential zones. Allow affordable housing in the UGA-P zone as a discretionary use. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 3 April 2026 Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? HB 1337 2023) ADUs. Expands housing options by easing barriers for ADUs. Requires fully planning cities and counties under the GMA to allow two ADUs per lot in UGAs (both attached, both detached, or one attached and one detached). Prohibits restrictive local requirements (e.g., jurisdiction may not require owner occupancy, must allow separate sale of ADUs, may not charge more than 50% of impact fees charged for the principal unit, limits the use of design standards). Revises requirements for height, setbacks, maximum size limits, parking, and others. Yes. Jefferson County must implement the changes within 6 months after the 2025 Periodic Update. Proposed revisions include: Revise code with updated definitions of attached and detached ADUs and to align with HB 1337 requirements in the UGA (e.g., allow two ADUs per lot in the UGA, reduce setback requirements, impact fees cannot exceed 50% of the principal unit, off- street parking requirements, etc.). Note one ADU per lot is already allowed in all rural zones which allow single-family residences, including in the RVC zone in Rural Commercial LAMIRDs (LAMIRDs may be filled in with new development, including ADUs, even though the outer boundary may not change). Add goals and policies to support ADUs (e.g., Policy LU-P-30.5, Policy HS-P-1.8, Policy HS-P-2.9, and Policy HS-P-2.13). HB 1110 2023) Middle Housing. Requires cities of certain sizes and locations to allow a broader range of housing types in areas that previously allowed predominantly detached homes. These broader housing types generally focus on “middle housing” e.g., duplex, triplex, fourplex, cottage housing, townhouse). Note: See also SB 5471 below. No. The County opted to implement these changes within the unincorporated Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA to support increased housing variety, choice, and affordability consistent with community outreach priorities. The County used Commerce’s model ordinance for Tier 3 communities (e.g., cities with a population of less than 25,000) to guide proposed revisions, including: Add goals and policies to support middle housing in the UGA and in limited LAMIRDs (e.g., Policy LU-P- 17.2, Policy LU-P-20.5, Policy LU-P-21.4, Policy LU-P- 23.4, Policy LU-P-32.2, Policy HS-P-1.1, Policy HS-P-1.8, and Policy HS-P-2.3). Add definitions related to middle housing types and include in use table for the UGA (JCC 18.18.040 Table 3A-1). The UMDR and UHDR zones allow most middle housing types, the ULDR zone allows lower density middle housing (duplexes, townhomes, and cottage housing), and only existing middle housing is allowed in the UC and VOC zones. Allow 2 units per lot in the ULDR, UMDR, and UHDR zones and reduce setback requirements in urban zones (JCC 18.15.050 Table 3A-2) to accommodate middle housing. Allow duplexes in the NC and GC zones in Rural Commercial LAMIRDs (note LAMIRDs may be filled in with new development, including middle housing, even though the outer boundary may not change). See also Policy-LU-P-22.2. Update off-street parking considerations and clarify administrative design review requirements for middle housing. SB 5471 2025) Middle Housing in UGAs and LAMIRDs. Provides a fully planning county with the option to allow middle housing on a single-family lot within both UGAs and LAMIRDs, with a maximum of four residential units allowed per lot. If this option is exercised, the County must No. As noted under the HB 1110 discussion above, the County is proposing revisions to allow middle housing in the unincorporated UGA (generally the ULDR, UMDR, and UHDR zones). Water service is available throughout the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA and construction of the Phase I wastewater treatment plant and collection system for residents and businesses in Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 4 April 2026 Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? require that middle housing in UGAs be served by water and sewer services and that middle housing in LAMIRDs must be served by existing sewer service. the Port Hadlock area is currently underway and anticipated to be ready in 2025, at which point urban zoning will apply within the sewer service area. Rural zoning that does not allow new middle housing typologies will continue to apply outside the Phase 1 sewer service area until sewer service is available. Proposed revisions would also allow duplexes in the NC and GC zone (in addition to the RVC zone in which they are already allowed) in Rural Commercial LAMIRDs. New residential development in these zones requires… HB 1998 2024) Co-housing. Requires communities to allow co-living on any lot located within a UGA that allows at least six multifamily residential units, including mixed use zoning. This includes any lots required to allow six middle housing units. Yes. All fully planning cities and counties must adopt development regulations allowing co-living housing on any lot located within a UGA by December 31, 2025. Proposed revisions include: Add definitions for sleeping units and co-living housing specific to the UGA. Allow co-living housing in the ULRD, UMDR, and UHDR zones in the UGA (JCC 18.15.040 Table 3A-1). Clarify co-living housing sleeping unit for purposes of calculating dwelling unit density consistent with HB 1998 (JCC 18.15.050 Table 3A-2). Update off-street parking considerations for co- living. SB 5258 2023) SB 5559 2025) Unit Lot Subdivision. SB 5258 requires local governments incorporate provisions related to “unit lot subdivisions” into their short plat regulations. SB 5559 clarified that only cities and town in counties planning under the GMA must adopt the new unit lot subdivision regulations. No. All counties (and any cities and towns not within GMA-planning jurisdictions) are now excluded from the unit lot subdivision requirements with passage of SB 5559. The County adopted unit lot subdivision regulations in December 2024 and is opting to make minor associated revisions with the Periodic Update to support increased housing variety, choice, and affordability consistent with community outreach priorities. These changes include new and updated definitions related to unit lot subdivision and allowing a maximum of nine lots in a short plat in the UGA. HB 1754 2020) Limitations on Regulating Temporary Housing Provided by Religious Organizations. Places new limitations on the ability of jurisdictions to regulate temporary housing for unhoused individuals on religious organization property. Allows jurisdictions to require a religious organization hosting the homeless and the agency managing the hosting to enter into a memorandum of understanding to protect the public health and safety of residents. Yes. Jefferson County currently regulates temporary housing under JCC 18.20.385, with managing agencies limited to religious organizations and nonprofit agencies per JCC 18.10.130. This section of the code is generally compliant with the requirements of HB 1754, except that JCC 18.20.385(2)(b) is revised to ensure permits for the same site may be granted in the same calendar year and are separated by a minimum of 3 months (not 180 days) when the property is owned or operated by a religious organization. Additional language is also added to JCC 18.20.385(1) to clarify that temporary housing facilities are allowed in all zones when the property is owned or controlled by a religious organization. HB 1377 2019) Density Bonus for Affordable Housing for Religious Organizations. Require fully planning cities and counties provide a density bonus for low-income affordable housing on properties owned by religious organizations. A density bonus is a zoning tool that allows a developer to build Yes, partially. Per RCW 36.70A.545 and guidance from Commerce, communities must provide a density bonus for affordable housing located on real property owned by a religious organization if they receive a request. More specifically, RCW 36.70A.545(2) states “A city or county may develop policies to implement this section if it receives a request from a religious organization for an increased density bonus for an affordable housing development.” The County does not Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 5 April 2026 Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? higher, more units, or with more floor space than normally permitted in that area currently have any code for density bonuses in the UGA—for affordable housing developed by religious organizations or otherwise—but could opt to develop code in the future should a request arise. SB 5148 2025) Housing Accountability. Provides cities, towns, and counties the option to request that the Washington Department of Commerce (Commerce) review and certify their comprehensive plan housing elements and development regulations for compliance with Growth Management Act No. Allows but does not require the County to submit the Housing Element and supporting regulations to Commerce for review. SB 5412 2023) SEPA Infill Exemptions. Expands SEPA categorical exemptions for residential projects to reduce local governments’ land use permitting workloads, thereby facilitating more housing development. All project actions with one or more residential housing units that meet certain criteria within incorporated UGAs or middle housing within unincorporated UGAs are categorically exempt from SEPA. No. SB 5412 is optional and one of several way a jurisdiction may raise SEPA categorical exemption thresholds. In Jefferson County, SB 5412 would apply only to middle housing in the unincorporated UGA. The County is instead considering raising SEPA exemption thresholds for minor new housing construction in the unincorporated UGA consistent with WAC 197-11-800(1). This requires similar documentation and noticing as SB 5412 regarding environmental analysis, protection, and mitigation. Per WAC 197-11-800(1)(d), the County may raise exemption levels up to 30 units for single family residential and 60 units for multifamily residential in the unincorporated UGA. Climate, TOD, & Parking Legislation HB 1181 2023) Climate. Makes significant changes to the GMA to incorporate climate change into comprehensive plans. Key changes include: Yes, partially (see below). Land Use Element must designate the proposed general distribution, location, and extent of green spaces and forests within the UGA; prioritize environmental justice (including efforts to avoid creating or worsening environmental health disparities); incorporate urban planning approaches that reduce VMT without increasing GHGs elsewhere in the state; and reducing and mitigating the risk to lives and property posed by wildfires by using land use planning tools. Yes. New environmental justice discussion added to the Land Use Element in Section 1.1—including the relationship between land use and air quality, health disparities, noise, urban heat, and public health— and environmental justice incorporated into the new Climate Element. Associated policies incorporated throughout the plan. General distribution, location, and extent of green spaces and forests (tree canopy) is mapped in Exhibit 9-3 (Climate Element) and recreational trail connections in the UGA are mapped in Exhibit 1-10 Land Use Element). Wildfire risk considered in the Climate Element and in several goals and policies of other elements (e.g., Policy LU-P-7.8, Policy NR-P-3.5, and Policy CE-P-1.2). Transportation Element must incorporate multimodal level of service into land use assumptions used in estimating travel; incorporate active transportation facilities and multimodal level of service, consistent with environmental justice goals, into facilities and services needs; and prioritize future facilities and services that will provide the greatest multimodal safety benefit within Yes. Transportation Element includes updated discussion of active transportation facilities in Section 6.2 and proposes new multimodal LOS standards (e.g., Policy TR-P-1.9, Policy TR-P-1.10, and Policy TR-P-4.3). Revised policies further support land use types, mixes, and densities that promote efficient and safe multimodal transportation systems (e.g., Goal TR-G-4 and associated policies). Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 6 April 2026 Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? forecasts of multimodal transportation demand and needs that inform the transportation element. Comprehensive plans must include a climate and resiliency element, which includes sub-elements for resiliency greenhouse gas emissions reduction and for resiliency. Yes, partially. Resiliency sub-element is mandatory for all counties and cities fully planning under the GMA including Jefferson County). Communities can include these as a standalone element or integrated into other chapters / elements. The County’s new Climate Element includes goals, policies, and programs that identify, protect, and enhance natural areas and communities to foster resiliency to climate impacts and address natural hazards created or exacerbated by climate change. The greenhouse gas emissions reduction sub-element is mandatory for the state’s 11 most populous counties and their cities (6,000 population and above as of April 1, 2021, per OFM estimates), which does not include Jefferson County. HB 1491 2025) Promoting TOD. Requires cities to designate “station areas” around certain public transit stops for higher-density development. It defines rail and bus station areas and amends the definition of a “major transit stop.” Commerce will develop a model code for station areas and can approve exceptions to the program. No. There are no major transit stops (light rail or bus rapid transit) in Jefferson County. SB 6015 2024) Residential Parking. Establishes new rules for residential parking standards, including limitations on what can be required to meet minimum parking requirements. Yes. Clarify residential parking standards in JCC 18.30.100 Table 6-2, including: Define the rate at which tandem parking spaces count towards meeting minimum residential parking requirements (one space for every 20 linear feet with any necessary provisions for turning radius). Clarify parking spaces can be enclosed or unenclosed parking for residential uses. Clarify that parking spaces with grass block pavers count towards minimum parking requirements. Off-street parking may not be required as a condition of permitting a residential project if compliance with tree retention would otherwise make the proposed residential development or redevelopment infeasible. Revise JCC 18.30.100 Table 6-3 so that parking spaces are not required to exceed 8 feet by 20 feet. SB 5184 2025) Parking Reform. Reduces or eliminates parking requirements for certain residential uses and commercial spaces in cities with a population of 30,000 or more. No. Bill as passed does not apply to counties (note the original bill applied to cities and counties but was amended on the Senate floor to apply only to cities). Other Legislation HB 1799 2022) Siting of Organic Materials Management Facilities. Development regulations developed, updated, or amended after January 1, 2025 to implement comprehensive plans must allow for the siting of organic materials (OM) Yes. HB 1799 requires Jefferson County to identify priority areas within the county for the establishment of organic materials management facilities. These priority areas must be in industrial zones, agricultural zones, or rural zones and may not be located in overburdened communities (RCW 70A.205.040). Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 7 April 2026 Legislation Year) Summary of New Requirements Required for Jefferson County? management facilities as identified in local solid waste management plans (SWMP) to meet OM reduction and diversion goals. Organic materials are a specific type of solid waste (per definitions in WAC 173-350-100 adopted by references in JCC 8.10.100). The County currently allows solid waste handling and disposal facilities conditionally in most rural residential, rural commercial, and rural industrial zones (JCC 18.15.040). While not required, the County could add “composting facilities” or “organic material management facilities” as a separate type of essential public facility use in JCC 18.15.040 Table 3-1 or more explicitly list these in JCC 18.20.360. In addition, Policy CF-P-7.2 was also revised in the Comprehensive Plan to include recycling and organics in the list of prioritized recommendations to implement from the SWMP. SB 5042 2022) Effective Date of Action for Boundary Changes. Requires adoption of a policy and regulation establishing the effective date of an action that expands a UGA; removes designated resources lands; creates or expands a LAMIRD; establishes a new fully contained community; or creates or expands an MPR. Yes. New code is added as JCC 18.45.100 consistent with SB 5042 (codified in RCW 36.70A.067) and addressed in new Policy LU-P-1.20. Sources: Jefferson County, 2025; BERK, 2025. Highlights of Public Outreach Outreach efforts over the last two years have included charettes/workshops, online surveys and informational materials, conversations with formal stakeholder groups and local Community Based Organizations (CBOs), and open houses as well as public comment via the legislative review process with the Planning Commission. The focus of these events ranged from broad, general plan discussions to element or topic specific conversations as discussed below. Public participation for the periodic update also incorporated two interrelated grant-driven engagement efforts: outreach conducted as part of the Climate Resiliency Grant and the Middle Housing Grant to meet specific climate outreach goals while developing the new Climate Element and specific housing-related outreach goals in the Irondale and Port Hadlock Urban Growth Area (UGA), respectively. See Attachment B for the community engagement summary to date. Key themes heard across engagement activities included: One of the most common values in the county is the natural beauty and rural landscape. Conservation and celebration of the county’s recreational opportunities and natural resources is a priority for county residents, particularly around conservation and protection of forest resource land and agricultural land. People encourage the County to continue actively preparing for the existing and projected impacts of climate change to ensure a regenerative and equitable future, where environmental health, social justice, and economic resilience are inseparable. Residents value the strong sense of community, including the strength of its diverse, multicultural community. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 8 April 2026 Affording a home to rent or to own is one of the most challenging issues people are facing. The community would like to see more diverse housing types (including more rental options and supportive housing) available across all affordability levels, ages, and abilities and additional support for those experiencing homelessness. Residents would like to see increased access to services and more infrastructure to meet needs across the whole community, particularly for vulnerable or marginalized groups and in geographically isolated areas. Residents would like to see an increase in multimodal transportation options, including expanding universally accessible public transportation, bike and pedestrian paths, and trail connections. People would like to see a diversified economy with more employment and workforce development opportunities, particularly living wage jobs and job training. This includes strengthening key industries and expanding job options in natural resources, industrial and manufacturing businesses, agricultural and food businesses, and tourism. Planning for the future should center historically underrepresented or marginalized voices— including Black, Indigenous, immigrant, disabled, and working-class communities—and ensure meaningful, ongoing participation and benefit. Tribes in West Jefferson County voiced a need for more housing, a closer school, improved transportation (especially for elders), better health care services, and additional economic development opportunities. For example, Hoh Tribal members especially value living in a close- knit Tribal community but find accessing services and limited infrastructure difficult. Comprehensive Plan Update A comprehensive plan is required to contain at least the following elements: land use, rural, housing, transportation, capital facilities, utilities, climate resilience, and—when the state provides funding— parks, and economic development. The Climate Element is a new addition to the comprehensive Plan as part of the 2025 periodic update. The County is updating its future land use plan and zoning in the UGA, making minor updates to the vision statement based on community feedback, and updating the element inventories, goals, and policies.

A summary of each element’s purpose and key changes since the 2018 Comprehensive plan are included below. Vision & Foundation Element Purpose: State community’s vision statement and define the planning area, describe purpose of the plan (e.g., planning context), planning process, and how to use the plan, and summarize public engagement. Notable Changes Since the 2018 Comprehensive Plan: Updates related to expansion of the Port Townsend UGA and new wastewater treatment plant. Explains new State requirements. Accommodating county’s fair share of housing affordable to all income levels. Adequate provisions to address racially disparate impacts in housing. New Climate Element. Limited revisions to the vision statement and framework goals based on community feedback and equity related language updates. Updated the public outreach summary and key themes heard across engagement activities. Land Use Element Purpose: Land use planning is crucial for future growth, community health, and environmental sustainability by managing resources responsibly and supporting transportation, industry, and social cohesion. The element addresses rural lands and rural character, rural villages, and communities, and incorporated and unincorporated UGAs. The element is organized into four main sections: Framework: Presents countywide land use plan concepts, population trends, current land use categories and use. Rural: Addresses rural character, rural residential densities, and areas like LAMIRDs and MPRs. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 10 April 2026 Resource: Summarizes conservation of natural resource lands and conservation of forested lands in rural areas. Urban: Addresses UGAs (primarily Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA), current and planned commercial uses, and necessary urban services. Notable Changes Since the 2018 Comprehensive Plan: Incorporates 2045 growth projections and new capacity analysis, with additional detail in the new Land Capacity & Housing Technical Appendix (Appendix B). Expands discussion of environmental justice (air quality and health disparities, land use and noise, land use and urban heat) and incorporates more recent CHA work. Small revisions to Future Land Use/Zoning Map in the UGA (limited rezones from UMDR to UHDR near the commercial core and near existing and planned services consistent with the CPPs). See the map below.

All goals and most policies in this element are new (some policies were moved from other elements). Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 16 April 2026 Municipal Code Amendments The County conducted a thorough audit of the existing development regulations as part of the Periodic Update to ensure alignment between revised goals and policies, state requirements, and the Jefferson County Municipal Code. Proposed code revisions ensure the development regulations are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, meet state requirements, and can guide Jefferson County’s future growth in a sustainable and balanced manner. See Exhibit 1 above for discussion of how the code was updated consistent with new state laws. Other code revisions proposed for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and community priorities include adding Park Model code and to encourage affordable housing in the UGA-P zone when the land will be owned and/or operated by the Peninsula Housing Authority or other public or governmental agency providing affordable housing. Evaluation Indicators This section evaluates the proposed Comprehensive Plan 2025 Periodic Update and associated development code revisions in relation to indicators included in Chapter 18.45 of the Jefferson County Code. Chapter 18.45 Comprehensive Plan and GMA Development Regulations Amendment Process: 18.45.050(4)(b) i) Whether growth and development as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan is occurring faster or slower than anticipated, or is failing to materialize. 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 (40% of proposed growth each) and 1,180 residents in rural areas 20% of proposed growth); and ii) Whether the capacity of the county to provide adequate services has diminished or increased. The demand for public services and facilities will increase as the population and employment grows. The Capital Facilities & Utilities Element adopts levels of service for facilities and services that support growth. Appendix D: Capital Facilities Plan Technical Document also identifies needed facilities and associated timing and revenues to support the facilities. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 17 April 2026 In some cases, some levels of service (LOS) are adjusted in the Capital Facilities & Utilities Element to ensure the County can meet the needs of current and future residents and businesses within available revenue and staffing resources. This includes new multimodal level of service (MMLOS) standards in the Transportation Element for roadways, active transportation, and transit. Active transportation LOS were developed in alignment with the rural character of much of the county’s road network. iii) Whether sufficient urban land is 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. iv) Whether any of the assumptions upon which the plan is based are no longer found to be valid. New information relating to housing, employment, wages, traffic, capital facilities, and other factors are available since the 2018 Comprehensive Plan. The County updated element inventories and analysis as part of the periodic update requirements of the GMA. v) Whether changes in county-wide attitudes necessitate amendments to the goals of the plan and the basic values embodied within the Comprehensive Plan Vision Statement. The County prepared a slightly revised Vision Statement and amended goals and policies 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. Please see Comprehensive Plan Update section for a description of each element. vi) Whether changes in circumstances dictate a need for amendments. See (iv) and (v) above. Trends and conditions were updated in each element as a basis for reviewing goals and policies. vii) Whether inconsistencies exist between the Comprehensive Plan and the GMA or the Comprehensive Plan and the Countywide Planning Policy for Jefferson County. The Periodic Update is being conducted to maintain consistency with the GMA and associated changes to GMA since the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan was last fully updated. The updated Countywide Planning Policies adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in joint Resolution 67- 1118-24R on November 18, 2024 were considered in the policy evaluation for each element. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update 2045 | Staff Report 18 April 2026 Findings Per JCC 18.45.080, findings are required: b) Required Findings – Generally. For all proposed amendments, the planning commission shall develop findings and conclusions and a recommendation which consider the growth management indicators set forth in JCC 18.45.050(4)(b)(i) through (4)(b)(vii), as well as the following: i) Whether circumstances related to the proposed amendment and/or the area in which it is located have substantially changed since the adoption of the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan; ii) Whether the assumptions upon which the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan is based are no longer valid, or whether new information is available which was not considered during the adoption process or any annual amendments of the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan; and iii) Whether the proposed amendment reflects current widely held values of the residents of Jefferson County. Based on the indicators, and the Comprehensive Plan Update 2045 and associated Municipal Code amendments, the following draft findings are proposed: Since the adoption of the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan, the State of Washington Office of Financial Management (OFM) has made new projections for Jefferson County. The County in consultation with the City of Port Townsend adopted growth allocations in Resolution #68-1118-24R. The growth was nearly the same as projected in 2018 for the 2038 horizon but would occur at a slower rate. The slower rate is a difference appropriate to address in the Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update. New information is available regarding housing affordability, employment and wages, traffic, type and location of capital facilities and utilities, and other factors. New system plans such as for parks have been completed. Each element’s inventories and analysis have been updated to address the new information. The proposed amendments are based on outreach efforts conducted in 2024 and 2025 and new state requirements for housing, climate, and transportation. See Attachment B for the community engagement summary to date, which will be updated prior to December 31, 2025 to capture additional public input during legislative review.

Environmental Elements 1. Earth Find help answering earth questions3 a. General description of the site: Circle or highlight one: Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other: tidelands, harbor areas, freshwater shorelands. Jefferson County is situated in the northwest region of the state of Washington between the Pacific Ocean, Admiralty Inlet, and Hood Canal. Its topography is varied, with elevations that range from sea level to as high as 7,980 feet with the peak of Mount Olympus in the Olympic Mountains. The Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest bisect the county and comprise approximately 60% of the county’s 1.16 million acres of land. The remaining area of Jefferson County is comprised primarily of rugged foothills and coastal terraces. Jefferson County also has approximately 373 square miles of offshore water areas. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? This is a non-project action, not applicable. Some slopes in the county may be up to 100 percent. Steep slopes are regulated under the Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO), ch. 18.22 JCC. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them, and note any agricultural land of long-term commercial significance and whether the proposal results in removing any of these soils. No soils will be altered as a result of updating the Comprehensive Plan. The Olympic Peninsula, where Jefferson County is located, has a complex geologic history including sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks as source material for many soil types. Within the county, sand, silt, and clay soils are present. Some locations, such as the south end of Brinnon and along the Pacific coast have a thin layer of soil over basalt. Hydric soils (both organic and mineral) are present in wetlands, and agricultural soils are present in the county. Repeated glaciation in the area modified rock formations to create deposits of clay, silt, sand, and gravel on the lowlands and foothills of the Peninsula. Its soil and mineral resources include sand, gravel, and hard rock basalt. The United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service has classified nearly 150,000 acres of the County as being a “fair” to “good” source for mineral resources. The county is largely a rural county, comprised primarily of forest lands along with a smaller portion of agricultural lands. Nearly 272,000 acres of land in Jefferson County have a farmland soil classification, ranging from prime farmland to farmland of statewide importance. Over 215,000 acres are considered Farmland of Statewide Importance. There is prime farmland located in the river valleys of western 3 https://ecology.wa.gov/regulations-permits/sepa/environmental-review/sepa-guidance/sepa-checklist- guidance/sepa-checklist-section-b-environmental-elements/environmental-elements-earth SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 27 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Jefferson County and in the coastal areas south of La Push, and in the eastern section of the county near Brinnon, Quilcene, and the area along Snow Creek. d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. Geologic hazards include areas susceptible to erosion, sliding, earthquake, or other geological events. There are steep slopes and unstable slopes subject to erosion in eastern Jefferson County along the coast. Exhibit 4, below, provides a map of geologically hazardous areas in Jefferson County.

List any threatened and endangered species known to be on or near the site. A variety of federal and state listed birds, mammals, insects, and aquatic species are known to be or have habitat in Jefferson County (Exhibit 7). The list is based on the unofficial species list obtained from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) online database and National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration – Fisheries (NOAA) website. USFWS identifies seven listed species that are potentially present in the county: Hawaiian petrel, marbled murrelet, northern spotted owl, short-tailed albatross, yellow-billed cuckoo, bull trout, and Dolly Varden. Eight ESA-listed species under the jurisdiction of the National Marine Fisheries Service NMFS) are also listed as potentially present in the county: Chinook salmon, Chum salmon, steelhead trout, yelloweye rockfish, green sturgeon, bocaccio, leatherback sea turtle, and killer whale.

Critical habitat for the other four federally listed species is not designated by USFWS within the county. USFWS also identifies three proposed threatened or endangered species that are potentially present in the county: northwestern pond turtle, monarch butterfly, and Suckley’s cuckoo bumble bee—critical habitat for these species is either not present in the county or not designated. Exhibit 7 also identifies priority species in the county as reported in the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) Priority Habitat and Species (PHS) data. WDFW maintains the PHS database to inventory potentially significant and endangered species. Numerous parts of the county—including aquatic habitat, vegetation patches, and documented and undocumented wetlands—have the potential to provide habitat for state priority species and may be associated with federally listed species. Given that this is a non-project action, and no development is proposed, there would be no measurable effects to listed species. Exhibit 7.

What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your project (for example: traffic, equipment, operation, other)? No development is proposed with this proposal; therefore, no additional noise would be created. The proposal involves a non-project legislative action, any future development projects will be evaluated subject to federal, state, and local regulations and standards. 2. What types and levels of noise would be created by or associated with the project on a short- term or a long-term basis (for example: traffic, construction, operation, other)? Indicate what hours noise would come from the site)? Although this proposal is for a non-project action, it is anticipated that the county's growth and development in surrounding areas will inevitably result in heightened traffic, consequently elevating noise levels along main transportation routes, affecting nearby properties. Potential future developments within the county may further exacerbate background traffic noise, introduce operational noise, or overall increase ambient noise levels. While short-term noise stemming from the construction of individual projects is expected, these effects will be temporary and transient. The county will assess noise impacts arising from individual development and construction as part of the environmental review process for each specific project. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 42 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 3. Proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any: Future site-specific development would be subject to State noise regulations. The County’s development regulations also reduce the potential for conflicts such as noise between various incompatible use types. Since the proposal involves a non- project legislative action and no development is proposed, no additional measures to reduce or control noise impacts are required. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures for impacts to noise. 8. Land and Shoreline Use Find help answering land and shoreline use questions 13 a. What is the current use of the site and adjacent properties? Will the proposal affect current land uses on nearby or adjacent properties? If so, describe. Current land uses in the county are characterized by rural lands, natural resource lands, and urban growth areas with a mix of open space, agricultural and forestry, residential, commercial, public, and industrial uses. Approximately 65% of the current land use consists of parks and open space, due to the Olympic National Park, and about 31% consists of forestry. Relatively small areas are residential, agriculture, public/civic and industrial, and are primarily located in eastern Jefferson County.

How much agricultural or forest land of long-term commercial significance will be converted to other uses because of the proposal, if any? If resource lands have not been designated, how many acres in farmland or forest land tax status will be converted to nonfarm or nonforest use? According to the Jefferson County Assessor, approximately 158,545 acres are taxed based on a use classification as Designated Forest Land, and an additional 186,686 acres are classified as Washington Department of Natural Resources managed timberlands, mostly in western Jefferson County. In total, these two classifications equal about 345,230 acres. These acreages exclude federal lands, which are not counted because they are outside of any state or local jurisdiction’s control. Of the total acreage zoned forest lands by Jefferson County (CF-80, RF-40, IF), approximately 40% is privately held forest land and approximately 60% is in public ownership. Of the public ownership category, approximately 93% is owned by Washington Department of Natural Resources. A majority of the forest lands in East Jefferson County are privately owned (about 69%), and a majority of the forest lands in western Jefferson County are publicly owned (about 71%). Agricultural lands in Jefferson County are zoned either Prime Agricultural Lands (AP-20) or Agricultural Lands of Local Importance (AL-20). Agricultural zoning accounts for 7,490 acres or approximately 1.7% of all county zoning, including 4,287 acres of AP-20 and 3,203 acres of AL-20 zoning. As a non-project proposal, no farmlands or forest lands will be converted to other uses and no development is proposed. Most population growth is also directed towards existing urban growth areas, MPRs, or LAMIRDs. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 45 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 1. Will the proposal affect or be affected by surrounding working farm or forest land normal business operations, such as oversize equipment access, the application of pesticides, tilling, and harvesting? If so, how? See response to question B.8(a) and B.8(b). No development is proposed as part of this non-project action. Future development will continue to be regulated by the Jefferson County Code, including three rural residential land use designations with densities ranging from five (5) acres to twenty (20) acres in size. The development code also includes regulations to encourage residential “clustering” in the rural areas of Jefferson County. Subdivision of large parcels for residential purposes in designated commercial forest lands is not permitted. c. Describe any structures on the site. See response to question B.8(a) for a description of land use patterns in the county. Structures in the county are consistent with its land use pattern. d. Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? Not applicable. This non-project action does not include demolition of any structures. Current uses could convert to other uses allowed under the zoning code as development occurs consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and implementing regulations. Any future development projects will be evaluated subject to federal, state, and local regulations and standards. e. What is the current zoning classification of the site? The County’s current zoning map is available on the county website. Countywide, the predominant future land use designation / zoning district is Commercial Forest (CF-80). Other extensive designations include Rural Residential – 20 and Rural Residential – 5. Based on the community’s vision, land characteristics, and provisions of the GMA, Jefferson County is proposing limited redesignations from medium to high density residential in the UGA on the Land Use / Zoning Map in this periodic update, and increasing the dwelling unit density within each urban residential zone. The proposed updated countywide map is shown in Exhibit 11 with detail for the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA in Exhibit 12 and Exhibit 13—note that transitional rural zones will continue to apply rural development standards in the UGA until urban wastewater services are available, at which time Urban zones and development standards will then apply. Construction of the Port Hadlock Sewer Facility and collection system in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA is currently underway with commercial and residential hook-ups being made. Urban zoning will apply within the sewer service area (generally the commercial core along SR-116 and Rhody Drive, see boundary on Exhibit 12).

What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site? The existing Land Use Map is available on the county’s website. The proposed updated countywide map is shown in Exhibit 11 with detail for the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA in Exhibit 12 and Exhibit 13. There are two urban growth areas (UGAs) in the county: the Port Townsend UGA (includes City of Port Townsend and some unincorporated county-managed land) and the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA unincorporated). The City of Port Townsend is subject to its own Comprehensive Plan and development regulations affecting urban growth and the provision of public facilities and services within the City of Port Townsend. The unincorporated portion of the Port Townsend UGA is subject to the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan and implementing regulations. The Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA is planned for urban residential, urban commercial, and urban industrial uses. Outside of the UGA, Limited Areas of More Intensive Rural Development (LAMIRDs) are designated— including Rural Village Centers, Neighborhood and General Crossroads, Visitor Oriented Commercial, Light Industrial, Light Industrial & Commercial, and Master Planned Resorts (MPRs). Specific LAMIRDs receiving population allocations from the 20-year projected growth include the Port Ludlow MPR, Pleasant Harbor MPR, Brinnon Rural Village Center, and Quilcene Rural Village Center. Categories of land use include rural commercial, industrial, residential, resort, resource, public, and urban land use designations and zoning districts. The County uses three rural residential land use densities: one dwelling unit per five (5), ten (10), and twenty (20) acres. Agricultural Resource lands have a designated twenty (20) acre maximum density, and forest resource lands have three designations based on minimum parcel size: forty (40)-acre Rural Forest; twenty (20)-acre Inholding Forest; and eighty (80)-acre Commercial Forest. Three public land use designations (Parks, Preserves, and Recreation—PPR; Public—P; and Essential Public Facilities--EPF) also apply regarding general public lands and essential public facilities needed to provide the full range of services to the public. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? The County’s Shoreline Master Program is in Chapter 18.25 of the Jefferson County Code. The program is currently undergoing periodic review, and is anticipated to be adopted in 2026. h. Has any part of the site been classified as a critical area by the city or county? If so, specify. Critical areas occur in Jefferson County and the CAO has recently been updated as part of this periodic update, to incorporate updated Best Available Science. A separate SEPA Environmental Checklist was prepared. Jefferson County’s CAO regulates critical aquifer recharge areas, frequently flooded areas, geologically hazardous areas, fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas, and wetlands. Updated maps are included in the Environment Element of the Comprehensive Plan that depict the approximate location and extent of known or potential critical areas. i. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? Per GMA, the County Comprehensive Plan and land use designations must accommodate growth within a designated planning period. In 2024, Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend developed a population projection and urban population allocation for the City of Port Townsend and Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA based on OFM’s 2022 Medium projections. The County passed SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 50 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Resolution #68-1118-24R on November 18, 2024, adopting the updated population forecast. The Comprehensive Plan forecasts and plans for a countywide population increase from 33,700 in 2024 to 40,486 in 2045, with 40% of growth directed to the City of Port Townsend, 40% directed to the unincorporated UGA, and 20% to the remaining unincorporated areas. The County and City are planning for an additional 4,119 housing units and 560 emergency housing beds countywide by 2045 to support this growth. Total employment countywide is estimated to rise to about 14,000 jobs by 2045 based on expected housing growth, existing jobs to housing ratios, and estimated 2023 total employment by planning area. The Comprehensive Plan update provides framework to accommodate the adopted population and housing targets and forecasted employment growth by 2045. j. Approximately how many people would the completed project displace? The intent of the Comprehensive Plan update is to address how to accommodate Jefferson County’s projected growth by 2045. The plan includes future land use designations to accommodate both existing and future residential and commercial uses. No displacement is expected as a result of this legislative proposal. k. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce displacement impacts, if any. Not applicable. The intent of the comprehensive plan update is to address how to accommodate Jefferson County’s projected growth by 2045.

SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 57 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Exhibit 16. Functional Classification Map—Eastern Jefferson County Source: Transpo Group, 2025. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 58 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 State Routes (SR) owned and operated by Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) provide for regional and interregional travel in the county. State routes within the county are US 101 and SR 19, 20, 104, and 116. They are classified according to how they function, for example, as principal or minor arterials or collectors—US 101 and SR 20 are classified as principal arterials, SR 104 is a rural expressway, SR 19 is a rural minor arterial, and SR 116 is a major collector. SR 19 is designated as a Highway of Statewide Significance (HSS) while its functional classification remains a minor arterial. This change reflects the highway’s increasing importance within the region as an HSS route that links SR 104 to Port Townsend. The Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization (PRTPO) has designated US 101, SR 19, SR 20, and SR 104 in Jefferson County as highways of statewide significance and SR 116 as a highway of regional significance, using criteria developed by the PRTPO. b. Is the site or affected geographic area currently served by public transit? If so, generally describe. If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? Jefferson County is served by the Jefferson Transit Authority, which provides bus services between Port Townsend and communities within the area. Jefferson County also provides connecting bus service to Island Transit, Kitsap Transit, Clallam Transit, Mason Transit, and Grays Harbor Transit. Transit service in Jefferson County also connects to Washington State ferry terminals in Bainbridge Island and Kingston. c. Will the proposal require any new or improvements to existing roads, streets, pedestrian, bicycle, or state transportation facilities, not including driveways? If so, generally describe (indicate whether public or private). The proposed Transportation Element and adopted Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) include proposed improvements to roads and non-motorized infrastructure. The TIP, which is updated annually, is available from the Jefferson County Public Works Department. d. Will the project or proposal use (or occur in the immediate vicinity of) water, rail, or air transportation? If so, generally describe. Public ferry service is provided by the Washington State Ferry System to Whidbey Island and via the Port Townsend/Coupeville ferry route, and to the greater Puget Sound through Kitsap County via the Kingston/Edmonds, Bainbridge Island/Seattle, Bremerton/Seattle, and Southworth/Vashon/Fauntleroy routes. The ferry service can accommodate automobiles, pedestrians, bicyclists, kayaks, and canoes. Air transportation is available at Jefferson County International Airport which is owned and operated by the Port of Port Townsend. The airport is situated about four miles southwest of the City of Port Townsend on about 316 acres. The runway is about 3,000 feet in length, and about 158 aircraft are based there. The airport is designated as a General Aviation airport by the FAA’s National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. e. How many vehicular trips per day would be generated by the completed project or proposal? If known, indicate when peak volumes would occur and what percentage of the volume would be trucks (such as commercial and nonpassenger vehicles). What data or transportation models were used to make these estimates? See the Transportation Element and supporting appendix for a traffic forecast evaluation of vehicular traffic generated on county roads and state routes by the updated Comprehensive Plan land use designations and projected growth. The capacity analysis and traffic forecasts indicate that at the SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 59 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 planning horizon year of 2045, all County roads are expected to operate at or above the proposed level of service (LOS) standard. The proposed service standard is LOS D for rural and urban roads (roads outside and inside the UGA, respectively), roads within master planned resorts, and for highways of regional significance (rural corridors carrying an urban level of traffic). A number of State Route segments are projected to exceed their estimated capacity based on the LOS standards established by WSDOT and the PRTPO and the roadway LOS methodology proposed by the county. These LOS standards are based on roadway classification. For the Periodic Update analysis, the roadways within the UGAs were assumed to be classified as urban. However, it should be noted that they are currently classified as rural under WSDOT standards. State highways that are forecast to not meet LOS standards within the planning period include SR 19 (Four Corners to SR 116). f. Will the proposal interfere with, affect, or be affected by the movement of agricultural and forest products on roads or streets in the area? If so, generally describe. Not applicable. This is a non-project action g. Proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any: The Transportation Element of the draft Comprehensive Plan provides guidance for maintaining and improving the County’s transportation system to accommodate projected growth and mitigate any transportation impacts over the next 20 years. It includes LOS standards and goals and policies intended to limit negative environmental impacts and encourage multimodal transportation choices. Jefferson County's strategy for managing its transportation network is to encourage efficient multi- modal transportation through implementation of the policies of the Transportation Element which address: The County's highways and arterials. Public transportation needs and services. Non-motorized transportation facilities. Land development standards associated with the County's transportation network. State, regional, and local intergovernmental coordination. Promotion of transportation demand management programs. Protection of the environment and conservation of energy in transportation activities. Development of a transportation improvement program that will identify and rank projects for funding. The technical information and policies in the Transportation Element provide the basis for recommendations for transportation improvements that are contained in the County’s six-year TIP. Concurrency also applies to County roads as well as intersections in the Tri-Area (but does not apply to Highways of Statewide Significance). If any proposed development were to cause the LOS to significantly fall below adopted levels, proponents of the development would be required to mitigate the deficiency prior to development approval. New active transportation LOS standards are also proposed as part of the Periodic Update to the Comprehensive Plan. Active Transportation LOS standards were developed in alignment with the rural character of much of the county’s road network. Ten of the thirty-eight projects listed in the county’s 2025-2030 6-year TIP are non-motorized projects which monetarily constitute 43% of the overall TIP. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 60 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 The new Climate Element also includes goals and policies that seek to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase resiliency to climate change impacts, including extreme precipitation and flooding, and sea level rise. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures for transportation impacts, including impacts to state facilities. 15. Public Services Find help answering public service questions19 a. Would the project result in an increased need for public services (for example: fire protection, police protection, public transit, health care, schools, other)? If so, generally describe. Future growth under the proposed 2025 Comprehensive Plan would increase demand for public services as described in the Capital Facilities Plan Technical Appendix (Appendix D). This growth is allowed under existing zoning. b. Proposed measures to reduce or control direct impacts on public services, if any. The Parks & Recreation, Transportation, and Capital Facilities & Utilities elements provide a framework for planning for and meeting public service needs. This framework includes adopted level of service standards and capital improvement plans of County and non-County service providers. Implementation of this framework would mitigate impacts to public services associated with future growth. The proposal involves a non-project legislative action, any future development project will be evaluated subject to federal, state, and local regulations and standards. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures for impacts to public services. 16. Utilities Find help answering utilities questions20 a.

Olympic Water and Sewer Inc., which provides water and sewer service to the Port Ludlow Master Planned Resort. There are also a number of private wells that are used as a water source in Jefferson County. Internet, telephone, and cable services: CenturyLink; T-Mobile, Verizon, Cingular, and Monarch. JPUD provides broadband, with expanding broadband projects throughout eastern Jefferson County. Hood Canal Communications provides broadband to the Brinnon area. Starlink, Viasat, HughestNet, and CenturyLink provide broadband to western Jefferson County residents. Sewer services: Jefferson County provides sewer services to the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA, beginning in September, 2025. The for the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA is served by the county’s Port Hadlock Sewer Facility to provide wastewater treatment for residents and businesses as the area urbanizes. The service area generally includes the commercial core along SR 116 and Rhody Drive (see boundary on Exhibit 12). The sewer is anticipated to reach the entire Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA within the 20-year planning period, with developer extensions and late-comer agreements as one mechanism for system expansion. Non-county sewer service providers include the City of Port Townsend, which provides sewer services to its residents and the Port Townsend UGA, and the Olympic Water and Sewer District, which provides services to the designated Port Ludlow Master Planned Resort. Many county residents are also on individual septic systems. JPUD provides community drain fields and large onsite septic services throughout eastern Jefferson County. Solid waste, recycling, and yard waste: The County contracts for solid waste services, which includes collection of recyclables and disposal of solid waste, programs for waste reduction, recycling, organics, and special waste disposal. Stormwater services: Jefferson County applies regulations that require development to manage runoff and pollution. The County’s stormwater infrastructure is largely associated with its road system. The County will be planning for urban stormwater infrastructure concurrently with the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA development. b. Describe the utilities that are proposed for the project, the utility providing the service, and the general construction activities on the site or in the immediate vicinity which might be needed. Utility service needs and plans for Jefferson County are described in the proposed Comprehensive Plan Capital Facilities, Essential Public Facilities, & Utilities Element, in the Capital Facilities Plan Technical Appendix (Appendix D), and in the detailed system plans referenced in the appendix.

Supplemental sheet for nonproject actions Find help for the nonproject actions worksheet22 Do not use this section for project actions. Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? See also parts B.2, B.3, and B.7. As a non-project action, the proposal would not directly impact water, air, hazardous substances, or noise. Future development consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and implementing zoning code could result in the following impacts: Fill and grade proposals, new impervious surfaces, or vegetation removal could result in altered surface water flows, increased stormwater flow, localized flooding impacts, and generation of non- point source pollution to local surface waters. Increased vehicle trips could increase air emissions or result in additional noise. As projects identified in the Transportation Element are implemented, an increase in stormwater may be generated due to the increases in impervious surfaces from future roadway widening. Short-term, minor increases in noise and exhaust emissions may occur. The impacts may occur with each individually proposed project at the time of project construction. Project construction activities may temporarily produce toxic or hazardous substances, generate noise from the use of standard construction equipment, or result in additional exhaust and fugitive dust (on site or along hauling routes or nearby local streets). Some commercial or industrial uses may handle hazardous materials, though the International Fire Code and state and federal laws would continue to apply. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: The Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update provides a policy framework intended to protect water and air quality, minimize excessive noise, and prevent pollution such as the release of toxic substances. Jefferson County is a rural county and remains largely undeveloped; protecting and conserving the natural environment is a core part of the community’s identity. See specific goals and policies in the Land Use Element (Chapter 1), Natural Resources Element (Chapter 2), and Environment Element Chapter 5). In addition, the adopted SMP and updated CAO will continue to regulate shorelines and critical areas in the county (including critical aquifer recharge areas, frequently flooded areas, geologically hazardous areas, fish and wildlife conservation areas, and wetlands). The new Climate 22 https://ecology.wa.gov/regulations-permits/sepa/environmental-review/sepa-guidance/sepa-checklist- guidance/sepa-checklist-section-d-non-project-actions SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 64 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Element also includes goals and policies that seek to improve air quality, protect natural resources and ecosystems vulnerable to climate change, preserve water quality and quantity while addressing the challenges posed by climate change, and prepare Jefferson County and its residents for hazards exacerbated by climate change. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? See also parts B.4 and B.5. Future development allowed by the Comprehensive Plan and development regulations could affect plants and animals in Jefferson County through land clearing for construction of housing and infrastructure, stormwater runoff, and human disturbance associated with future growth. Environmental resources subject to risk of direct and indirect impacts include numerous species of plants and animals (including federal and state designated threatened or endangered species and their habitat). As projects identified in the Transportation Element are implemented, there may be impacts to roadside vegetation due to widening of existing roadways. Impacts will be analyzed for each individually proposed project at the time of project construction. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: The Environment Element and new Climate Element include goals and policies that support key environmental features in Jefferson County (including wildlife habitats) and seek to protect ecosystems, including those vulnerable to climate change. Other measures in place to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Local, state, and federal environmental regulations such as chapter 18.22 JCC (Critical Areas), stormwater and Shoreline Master Program to apply during individual projects. The updated CAO provides protection standards with the current update incorporating the most recent Best Available Science into the Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas chapter. Roadway widening will be limited to the amount necessary to accommodate the improvements consistent with guidelines and requirements. Some vegetation may need to be removed or altered during project construction in undeveloped locations or where additional ROW or impervious surface is needed. Areas disturbed but not covered with surfacing materials will be re-vegetated. The proposed measures would vary depending on the individual project under construction. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? See also Part B.6. As a non-project action, the proposal would not directly deplete energy or natural resources. Individual projects will typically require oil and electricity during the construction phase to operate equipment and periodically thereafter for routine maintenance and repair activities. Demands for energy and natural resources (such as heating, light, and electricity for residential units or commercial uses) will increase along with population growth and associated development irrespective of the proposed updates. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 65 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: The proposed update to the Comprehensive Plan supports the natural resource protection principles articulated in the GMA. Policies in the Capital Facilities & Utilities, Environment, Natural Resources, and Transportation Elements in particular emphasize conservation of resources, and the new Climate Element includes goals and policies that seek to protect natural resources, increase energy reliability and resilience, and improve building energy efficiency. Other measures in place or proposed as part of the Periodic Update to avoid or reduce such increases are: Concentration of development under these Comprehensive Plan policies will enable existing infrastructure to be more intensely and efficiently utilized. Public transportation and non-motorized modes of movement are promoted by plan policies, which may result in a reduction in the use of oil energy used by automobiles. Application of existing building and energy codes. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection, such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? See also Part D.2 regarding plants and animals and parts B.1, B.2, B.3, B.4, B.5, B.6, B.7, B.8, B.12, and B.13. No direct impacts to environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for government protection are expected as a result of this non-project action. Population and employment growth would likely increase demand for parks and place additional pressure on environmentally sensitive areas irrespective of the proposed updates. Future development projects may dredge or fill surface waters or wetlands or affect other environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated for government protection. Any impacts will be determined with each individually proposed project at the time of project design. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: The Environment Element and new Climate Element include goals and policies to conserve the county’s natural resources, including Olympic National Park, Hood Canal, and more. These goals and policies work together with local, state, and federal environmental regulations, such as the county’s SMP and CAO. The existing and proposed CAO update includes regulations intended to protect county resources, with provisions for no net loss of area and functions, which provides a balance between protecting county resources and allowing development and uses to be approved. The Open Space, Parks & Recreation, Historical & Cultural Preservation Element and new Climate Element also includes goals and policies to help ensure a diversified recreational and open space system in Jefferson County. The elements also aim to avoid and minimize losses and changes to historic and cultural resources, and include goals and policies to support and protect historic resources. Historic and cultural sites would remain protected by federal, state, and local regulations and policies. Historic or cultural sites will be evaluated during the environmental review of individual projects and, if necessary, mitigation measures to avoid or minimize potential impacts will be developed. Any S EPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 66 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 alterations to existing historic or cultural sites would also require evaluation and mitigation during individual development process. The County maintains an MOU with the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation mapping sites of significance and establishing discovery protocols, and significant archaeological and historical sites are considered high priority resources in the Open Space Tax Program. The new Climate Element also includes goals and policies that seek to protect valued cultural and historic resources vulnerable to climate change impacts. Any roadway projects identified in the Transportation Element will be designed to avoid and reduce impacts wherever possible. Additional measures will be evaluated and proposed during the design phase of each individual project. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? See also parts B.8, B.9, B.10, and B.12. Jefferson County currently contains a number of zoning and future land use designations, ranging from urban designations in the UGA to rural and resource designations elsewhere. The Comprehensive Plan Update establishes a revised land use policy for the county that refines the current Comprehensive Plan policy direction to reflect changed conditions and requirements since prior plan adoption. Based on the community’s vision, land characteristics, and provisions of the GMA, Jefferson County is proposing limited redesignations from medium to high density residential in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA on the Land Use / Zoning Map as part of this periodic update. Other updates related to allowed densities and uses, dimensional standards, and process in the development regulations are proposed concurrent with the periodic update to support anticipated growth. No changes are proposed to the SMP as part of this proposal. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: The Comprehensive Plan Update is designed to be consistent with the GMA, the Jefferson County Countywide Planning Policies, and new state planning requirements. The Land Use Element includes goals and policies intended to ensure new development is compatible with existing land uses and an analysis of future land use needs and projected growth demands to guide future land development. It also includes guidance to use the Land Use Map to ensure that the county’s functional plans support land use patterns outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. Existing regulations also ensure future development is compatible with existing and projected land uses and plans via zoning standards (e.g., appropriate locations for various land uses as well as height, bulk, setback, and landscaping requirements). Individual development projects will be subject to local, state, and federal regulations and must be consistent with the County’s Comprehensive Plan (including the Land Use Element goals and policies), the adopted SMP, and the GMA. In addition, the adopted SMP and updated CAO will continue to regulate shorelines and critical areas in the county (including critical aquifer recharge areas, frequently flooded areas, geologically hazardous areas, fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas, and wetlands). The updated CAO will be incorporated into the county SMP by reference and will support no net loss requirements for development within shoreline jurisdiction. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 67 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? See also parts B.14, B.15, and B.16. As a non-project action, the proposal will not directly increase demand on transportation, public services, or utilities. However, the Comprehensive Plan Update would guide the type, location, and intensity of development within the county and demand for transportation, public services, and utilities is likely to increase as new development and growth occur. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: The proposed Open Space, Parks, & Recreation Element (Chapter 4), Transportation Element (Chapter 6), Transportation Technical Document (Appendix C), Capital Facilities & Utilities Element (Chapter 8), and Capital Facilities Plan Technical Appendix (Appendix D) provide a framework for planning for and meeting demands on transportation, public services, and utilities over the planning period. The Capital Facilities Element and Technical Appendix inventory existing facilities, detail adopted level of service standards, detail specific projects identified to mitigate impacts of growth, and call for providing adequate capital facilities and public services necessary to support existing development and new growth. Policies under the element recognize the need for collaboration with non-County providers to plan for and ensure continued provision of quality services (such as fire and water). Applicable plans, as amended and listed in the element, are adopted by reference. The Transportation Element and Technical Appendix provides a framework for planning for and meeting transportation demand for the next twenty years. Technical information and policies in the element provide the basis for recommendations for transportation improvements that are in the County’s six-year TIP. Key policy concepts include supporting multimodal transportation options, meeting LOS standards, and ensuring that adequate funding for the transportation systems is in place. Implementation of individual projects included within the Transportation Element will reduce and respond to such demands. New active transportation LOS standards are proposed as part of the Periodic Update. The Transportation Element also provides guidance for reducing impacts to the environment related to transportation activities, ensuring a safe transportation system, providing options for active transportation such as walking and biking, and maintaining a dynamic relationship between land use and transportation systems in order to support desired land use patterns. The Open Space, Parks & Recreation, Historical & Cultural Preservation Element draws from the adopted 2022 PROS Plan and connects land use and park planning. Proposed revisions to the element goals and policies help ensure a healthy and equitable recreational and open space environment for all users in the county. Minor updates are also proposed to the parks LOS standards for consistency with standards in the adopted 2022 PROS Plan. The PROS Plan will continue to guide acquisition, development, and improvement of park areas and facilities and the provision of recreational service throughout Jefferson County. In addition, the County is currently not meeting the PROS Plan’s adopted LOS standard for special use facilities based on the current population and updated facility inventory provided by staff since the 2022 PROS Plan—the County plans to address this deficit and potentially revise the LOS standard in the next PROS Plan update. See also Attachment 1 for a list of regulations, plans, and policies that serve as mitigation measures. SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 68 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. In general, the Comprehensive Plan Update and associated code revisions seek to protect the environment and so would not conflict with any local, state, or federal laws for the protection of the environment. The Comprehensive Plan Update and development regulations have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the GMA and Jefferson County Planning Policies to ensure coordinated planning.

Jefferson County plans to adopt the periodic update to the Comprehensive Plan by December 2025 which will be completed across four phases. The phases and general purpose and activities for each phase are summarized in Exhibit 2 with the full Public Participation Plan in Attachment A. Exhibit 17. Outreach Plan General Phases Phase 1: Spread the word Phase 2: Identify priorities Phase 3: Refine based on feedback Purpose Build early awareness of plan process Build or strengthen key partner relationships Understand current community context Gather and integrate community value and vision Community-driven prioritization of potential strategies Solicit feedback on draft materials Gather input for implementation Activities Webpage (main county page and DCD page) County Facebook Coordinate meetings with local Climate Action Committee (CAC) Coordinate meetings with other stakeholders Webpage (main county page and DCD page) Social media Community Conversations Meetings with the CAC and other stakeholders Webpage (main county page and DCD page) Social media Community Conversations Meetings with the CAC and other stakeholders Source: Jefferson County, 2024. Outreach efforts across the periodic update included charettes/workshops, online surveys and informational materials, conversations with formal stakeholder groups and local Community Based Organizations (CBOs), and open houses as well as public comment via the legislative review process with the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners. The focus of these events ranged from broad, general plan discussions to element or topic specific conversations as discussed below. Public participation for the periodic update also incorporated two interrelated grant-driven engagement efforts: outreach conducted as part of the Climate Resiliency Grant and the Middle Housing Grant to meet specific climate outreach goals while developing the new Climate Element and specific housing-related outreach goals in the Irondale and Port Hadlock Urban Growth Area (UGA), respectively. Key themes heard across engagement activities include [to be confirmed/updated pending all phases of engagement]: One of the most common values in the county is the natural beauty and rural landscape. Conservation and celebration of the county’s recreational opportunities and natural resources is a priority for county residents, particularly around conservation and protection of forest resource land and agricultural land. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 88 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 People encourage the County to continue actively preparing for the existing and projected impacts of climate change to ensure a regenerative and equitable future, where environmental health, social justice, and economic resilience are inseparable. Residents value the strong sense of community, including the strength of its diverse, multicultural community. Affording a home to rent or to own is one of the most challenging issues people are facing. The community would like to see more diverse housing types (including more rental options and supportive housing) available across all affordability levels, ages, and abilities and additional support for those experiencing homelessness. Residents would like to see increased access to services and more infrastructure to meet needs across the whole community, particularly for vulnerable or marginalized groups and in geographically isolated areas. Residents would like to see an increase in multimodal transportation options, including expanding universally accessible public transportation, bike and pedestrian paths, and trail connections. People would like to see a diversified economy with more employment and workforce development opportunities, particularly living wage jobs and job training. This includes strengthening key industries and expanding job options in natural resources, industrial and manufacturing businesses, agricultural and food businesses, and tourism. Planning for the future should center historically underrepresented or marginalized voices— including Black, Indigenous, immigrant, disabled, and working-class communities—and ensure meaningful, ongoing participation and benefit. Tribes in West Jefferson County voiced a need for more housing, a closer school, improved transportation (especially for elders), better health care services, and additional economic development opportunities. For example, Hoh Tribal members especially value living in a close- knit Tribal community but find accessing services and limited infrastructure difficult. Plan Development 2024 – Early 2025 Community Charrette, Workshops, & Planning Commissions Meetings Spring 2024 – Summer 2024 County Staff worked with community partners to conduct extensive outreach to stakeholders over the spring and summer of 2024 to collect and synthesize ideas to help shape proposed urban development policy and code changes in the Comprehensive Plan and development code. Much of these discussions were focused on housing barriers in the county, particularly within the unincorporated UGA, and possible provisions to address those barriers. Many community members participated across the events and several Planning Commissioners attended one or more of the public workshops. The County’s goals for engaging the community were multifold, including: Better understand the types of housing most suitable for the urban growth area and why. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 89 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Engage partners to identify the best locations for these sites. Raise awareness of historic and cultural resources in the urban growth area, some of which appear threatened and near a state of disinvestment that suggest these historic assets may soon be lost. Engage the community to understand where informal trails have developed and why. Identify decision-makers. Staff identified residents of the community as the primary decision- makers, as they are those who will be housed. Landowners and affordable housing developers are additional primary decision-makers as they own and often are developers of land in the urban growth area that could accommodate additional development. Jefferson County needs housing for all income groups, and staff gathered community support to ensure that it is completed, designed, and constructed consistent with community expectations. Staff utilized multiple methods to achieve their public engagement goals. The Planning Commission also formed an outreach subcommittee, which identified a range of ideas including the need to piggyback existing events and conduct outreach to existing groups. County staff used this guidance supplemented with the following: A virtual survey was conducted with the support of the Housing Resources Group to identify housing designs that meet community expectations. A Stock Plan Committee consisting of city and county residents, planning commissions reviewed ideas, and submissions, selecting some plans for funding Lunch and Learn events were conducted to offer those interested an opportunity to share feedback on designs received from community members. An extensive media campaign including postings on social media, press releases, and other venues was used throughout the engagement efforts. A series of three workshops were the focus of the preliminary outreach (see Attachment B for sample presentation materials). A final workshop included a bicycle tour of historic assets, and priority sites. Planning Commission hosted a public hearing on middle housing ideas and used this as a critical vetting of the ideas submitted. Interested parties were and will continue to be contacted by direct e-mail throughout the process This outreach culminated with a July 15, 2024 bicycle tour of priority development sites to which County Staff invited numerous stakeholders including the tribes, the military, and local property owners. A total of 10 individuals participated in the bicycle tour. Based on these events and discussions, staff concluded that implementing the new middle housing requirements from HB 1110 (even though not required by law) would likely improve housing choice and variety in the unincorporated UGA and that without these changes, housing development would continue to be impeded. This April 14, 2026 staff report prepared for Planning Commission summarizes these engagement efforts and proposed potential amendments to the 2018 Comprehensive Plan, zoning map, and Jefferson County Municipal Code to address identified barriers and incentivize housing within the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA, including middle housing code revisions. See Error! R eference source not found.. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 90 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Community Connectivity Summit March 2025 The County attended the Community Connectivity Summit on March 7, 8, and 9, 2025 at Chimacum High School (hosted by The Production Alliance, a non-profit event production and community building organization centered on the Olympic Peninsula). This summit was attended by 1,500 community members across the three days, including participation from 144 different local and regional organizations and 600 youth attendees. The goal of the summit was to connect people in the broader community with resources and engagement groups working throughout the county and regionally. This summit consisted of various events, including a tabling event where different organizations displayed informational materials regarding current projects. The Department of Community Development (DCD) staffed a table with informational materials regarding current work being undertaken to update the Comprehensive Plan and presented on climate change in Jefferson County. As part of this, staff spent 4 hours participating in conversations with community members to discuss what middle housing is and how incorporating it can impact local housing pressures. Posters with examples of middle housing (Error! Reference source n ot found.) were also displayed for community members, and an interactive planning exercise was utilized to allow community members to vote on their preferred type(s) of middle housing. Staff also participated in a 30-minute conversation on the Climate Element and what climate change and climate resiliency means in Jefferson County. The Community Connectivity Summit was primarily geared to community youth so staff’s primary outreach focus was on education. Staff were motivated by the results of two different event presentations focused on middle housing, multiple break-out sessions, and a fruitful tabling exercise. Event attendee participation was high, and staff gathered the perspectives of local young people and transferred valuable civic knowledge on policy making, middle housing realities, and the hopes for our future. See Attachment 2 for middle housing event materials. Planning Commission “Road Show” Community Open House Events February 2025 – March 2025 Josh Peters (Former Community Development Director) and Kate Dean (Deputy Director of Policy for the Department of Natural Resources) discussing climate change in Jefferson County at the 2025 Community Connectivity Summit Connectivity Tabling Fair COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan | Appendix A 91 Public Hearing Draft April 2026 Staff and Planning Commission hosted four outreach events across the county in February and March of 2025 to review draft goals and policies for the Comprehensive Plan and likely code revisions to support the plan. These meetings included: February 26, 2025 in the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA (attended by 12 community members). March 5, 2025 at the Brinnon Community Center (attended by 15 community members). March 19, 2025 at the Gardiner Community Center (attended by 15 community members). March 25, 2025 at the Quilcene Community Center (attended by 12 community members). A full draft of proposed revisions to the visions, framework goals, and element specific goals and policies in the Comprehensive Plan was posted online and staff provided large, interactive poster boards with draft goals for review at each event (see Error! Reference source not found. for the flyer, boards, and r epresentative presentation materials). Staff asked community members to make their voices heard to ensure the updated Comprehensive Plan reflects the community’s vision and is a useful resource in guiding County decision-making. At these community outreach events attendees could: Participate in the planning process. Comment on the draft goals and policies. Meet Planning Commissioners and County staff. Robust question and answer sessions between event participants and our Planning Commissioners were a highlight of these events. Both staff and Planning Commission gleaned valuable insight and documented these exchanges with meeting recordings to further facilitate compilation, review, and analysis. Participant feedback on the effectiveness of these Open House Events was positive. Key findings of what staff heard from the community across events as well as a summary of comments by event and Comprehensive Plan element are included below.

Reference s ource not found.). Below is a summary of the actions and results of that meeting: Meeting Synopsis: Jefferson County is conducting a legislatively required periodic update of the 2018 Comprehensive Plan. The frequency of periodic reviews is every 10 years, using a 20-year planning timeframe (2025-2045). Unified Development Code (UDC) amendments are also considered which implement the Plan, particularly those UDC amendments needed to meet new legislative requirements. Community Development posted a public review draft 2025 Comprehensive Plan for public and Planning Commission consideration. Meeting Assignment: The Planning Commission is established to provide recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners (BoCC) on land use issues. The Planning Commission reviewed the 2025 Comprehensive Plan documents and listened to a presentation from Community Development staff and BERK, providing the Commissioners with information about legislatively required and community-driven revisions and data updates. Meeting Action: Planning Commission will be responsible for developing a docket of work they would like to review and discuss regarding the 2025 Comprehensive Plan. After receiving information about the Plan rollout, Community Development will facilitate future Planning Commission discussions about options for working through the materials. The schedule and possible target dates were discussed on May 7, 2025. The Draft Comprehensive Plan contains a lot of material within the nine topical Elements and associated Technical Appendices. The May 21, 2025 Planning Commission discussion was centered around the review methods, work product, and schedule for completing a review of the Public Review Draft. Planning Commissioners came prepared to participate in the review of draft materials and outlined a work plan with staff in future meetings, consider the level of policy evaluation they will want to accomplish, and evaluate the level of word-smithing Commissioners envision. Further, the Planning Commission was able to decide upon the review process and organizational tools they will utilize. The May 21st Planning Commission meeting also allowed for a robust public comment period though public comments on the agenda were limited. The theme of the two middle housing focu sed public comments were centered on the commenter’s belief that the data from the Office of Financial Management used to arrive at population and housing projections during County Wide Planning Policy CPP) work in 2024 is significantly flawed.

The code revisions proposed below ensure the development regulations are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, meet state requirements, and can guide Jefferson County’s future growth in a sustainable and balanced manner. This review provides a clear framework for County staff, Planning Commission, the Board of County Commissioners, stakeholders, and the broader community to understand the recommended changes as part of this process. The revisions include those necessary to reflect updated goals and policies in the Draft Plan and meet housing unit targets by income band as well as other required edits due to adjustments in the Growth Management Act and other enabling state statutes. This document builds on and is consistent with the following two documents already submitted to the County to meet GMA requirements: Middle Housing Gap Report: The June 2024 Middle Housing Gap Report highlighted updates required for the Irondale and Port Hadlock UGA, which is being considered for Tier 3 requirements for Middle Housing. Code amendments carried through below are based off the Jefferson County Middle Housing Gap Report (2024) to fulfill requirements for HB 1337, 1998, and SB 5258. Jefferson County Land Capacity & Housing Technical Appendix (Appendix E), including Commerce’s barrier checklists and identified adequate provisions: The Commerce checklists help ensure that development regulations support moderate, and high residential densities, address barriers for permanent supportive and emergency housing, and accessory dwelling units. Section 6 in Appendix E further details adequate provisions to provide sufficient land capacity to meet growth targets and address identified barriers, including those that should be completed by the Comprehensive Plan deadline. Code revisions to be completed by the Comprehensive Plan deadline include zoning code updates that allow for additional density in the ULDR, UMDR, and UHDR zones, and therefore capacity, for key housing types and allowing higher density residential in the UC zone as a discretionary use. In addition, the County’s development standards should be updated to regulate emergency and permanent supportive housing more like other housing Attachment C Memo of Proposed Development Regulations Updates for Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update | Proposed Development Regulation Revisions 107 April 2026 uses—this includes adding emergency and permanent supportive housing as a specific use type as well as allowing emergency housing by right in all zones that allow hotels (currently the UC, VOC, and RVC zones) In addition, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance No. 09-1209-24 on December 9, 2024 which approved policy and code amendments from the 2024 Annual Amendment Cycle.

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 communicat ion 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 requirem ents. 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 requirement s of this section, the following road designations shall apply: Principal arterials.

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.

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. 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).

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 [JP11]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). ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-186 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 Chapter 18.20 JCC) and development standards (Chapter 18.30 JCC) and other applicable provisions of this code (including project permit approval, see Chapter 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 (Chapters 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 Chapter 18.40 JCC. Decisions classifying “D” uses made under this section may be appealed to the hearing examiner (see Chapter 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 Chapter 18.30 JCC; b) Complies with the performance and use-specific standards unique to the proposed use specified in Chapter 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; ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-187 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 (Chapter 36.70 RCW); g) Shall not adversely impact the public health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the county; 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 (Chapter 18.30 JCC), performance standards unique to the proposed use (Chapter 18.20 JCC), and the criteria for a conditional use permit Article VIII of Chapter 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 Chapter 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.

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 Chapter 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.

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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-192 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.

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.

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 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. 1) The minimum land area required for PRRD short or long subdivision proposals shall be as follows: a) RR 1:5 district – 10 gross acres; b) RR 1:10 district – 20 gross acres; and c) RR 1:20 and agricultural (AP-20 and AL-20) districts – 40 gross acres. 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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-301 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. 14- 18 § 4 (Exh. B); Ord. 8-06 § 1](4) Substandard lots that have been formally recognized as legal lots of record are eligible to apply for a PRRD proposal, provided that: a) The proposal demonstrates the land area is sufficient to meet the public health and environmental protection standards contained in Jefferson County regulations, and b) The application is accompanied by a binding site plan. 18.15.490 Rural residential districts – Reserve tract requirements. 1) Each PRRD within the RR 1:5, RR 1:10 and RR 1:20 districts shall contain a reserve tract(s) comprising at a minimum the following percentage of the proposed PRRD: a) RR 1:5 – 65 percentParcels equal to or less than sixty (60) acres in area – seventy (70) percent of the gross parcel size before development; b) RR 1:10 – 75 percentParcels greater than sixty (60) acres and less than 100 acres in area sixty (60) percent of the gross parcel size before development; and c) RR 1:20 – 85 percentParcels equal to or greater than 100 acres – fifty-five (55) percent of the gross parcel size before development. 2) The reserve tract(s) may be owned by a landowner, homeowners association, corporation, partnership, land trust, individual or other legal entity.

[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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-305 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. 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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-306 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 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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-307 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 or as subsequently amended, 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: ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-308 a) Building setbacks; 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; ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-309 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] 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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-310 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 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.

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 ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-319 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.

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. The maximum bonus density for affordable housing developments meeting the criteria in subsection (4) of this section may receive a maximum bonus of 50 percent above the maximum density allowed in the underlying zone. The amount of the 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). a) To achieve the density bonus, the following development standards may be modified in approving an eligible application: i) Building setbacks; ii) Height of buildings or structures, not to exceed 70 feet; c) Lot size; d) Lot width; and any other standards contained in chapter 18.18 JCC. b) Standards that may not be modified or altered are: i) Shoreline regulations when the property is located in an area under the jurisdiction of the Jefferson County Shoreline Master Program; ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-341 ii) Standards pertaining to development within critical areas as set forth in chapter 18.22 JCC, Critical Areas; iii) Regulations pertaining to nonconforming legal structures and uses as set forth in JCC 18.20.260; and iv) 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. 4) Criteria for Approval of Bonus Densities. Upon submittal of the development 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 will be based upon a comprehensive review of the entire project. It is the intention of this section to allow an increased density bonus of up to 50 percent consistent with local needs for any affordable housing development on real property in the UGA owned or controlled by a religious organization only where all of the following conditions are satisfied: a) All units in the affordable housing development are set aside for or occupied exclusively by low-income households. b) The affordable housing development is part of a lease or other binding obligation that requires the development to be used exclusively for affordable housing purposes for at least 50 years, even if the religious organization no longer owns the property. c) The affordable housing development does not discriminate against any person who qualifies as a member of a low-income household based on race, creed, color, national origin, sex, veteran or military status, sexual orientation, or mental or physical disability; or otherwise act in violation of the federal fair housing amendments act of 1988. d) The affordable housing development is located entirely within the UGA. e) The religious organization developing the affordable housing development must pay all fees, mitigation costs, and other charges required through the development of the affordable housing development. f) If applicable, the religious organization developing the affordable housing development must work with the local transit agency to ensure appropriate transit services are provided to the affordable housing development 6) For the purposes of this section: a) “Affordable housing development” means a proposed or existing structure in which 100 percent of all single-family or multifamily residential dwelling units within the development are set aside for or are occupied by low-income households at a sales price or rent amount that may not exceed 30 percent of the income limit for the low-income housing unit. b) “Low-income household” means a single person, family, or unrelated persons living together whose adjusted income is less than 80 percent of the median family income in Jefferson County, adjusted for household size.

The code of conduct shall include, but is not limited to, provisions committing occupants to the following: I) Respecting the rights of the property owner to restrict access to areas of their property that are not open to the public or to facility occupants; II) Using operator-suggested routes of travel to access the temporary housing facility use; III) Maintaining the site aesthetics; IV) Respecting state law restrictions on smoking and agreeing to use designated smoking areas where provided; V) Respecting any rules required by the operating entity as a condition of entry to the site; and VI) Complying with terms of any “good neighbor” policy provisions that apply to occupants of the temporary housing facility. e) Operational Requirements. i) No children under the age of 18 are allowed to stay overnight in the temporary facility, unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. If a child under the age of 18 without a parent or legal guardian present attempts to stay at the facility, the operating ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-352 entity shall immediately contact the Department of Social and Health Services, Child Protective Services, for placement in an alternative shelter; ii) The operating entity shall ensure compliance with all state and local public health regulations during operation of the facility. As a condition of approval of the temporary housing facility, the operating entity shall allow public health officials reasonable access for inspection purposes. The operating entity shall permit inspections by any state or local agency to ensure such compliance with such regulation and shall implement all directives resulting therefrom within the specified time period. The operating entity must document ongoing compliance with public health requirements, including but not limited to the following: A) Potable water, which is available at all times at the site; B) Sanitary portable toilets, which shall be set back from all property lines as determined by the administrator and serviced as often as necessary to ensure sanitary conditions; C) Handwashing stations by the toilets and food preparation areas; D) Food handling and storage facilities meeting all public health requirements including those in Cchapter 246-215 WAC and JCC Title 8), including but not limited to proper temperature control for food storage and an educational program for temporary housing facility residents; and E) Refuse receptacles capable of providing capacity to keep the facility clean, without excess garbage accumulating outside of receptacles; iii) The operating entity shall designate points of contact and provide contact information (24-hour accessible phone contact) to the chief criminal deputy of the Jefferson County sheriff or their designee. At least one designated point of contact shall be on duty at all times. The names of the on-duty points of contact shall be posted on site daily; iv) The operating entity shall take all reasonable and legally permissible steps to obtain verifiable identification information from current and prospective facility residents, including full name and date of birth, and complete background checks with the appropriate agencies. The operating entity shall keep a current log of names and dates of all people who stay overnight in the facility. This log shall be available upon request to law enforcement agencies and prospective facility residents shall be so advised by the operating entity; ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-353 v) The operating entity shall immediately contact the Jefferson County sheriff’s office if any individual is rejected or ejected from the facility under any of the following circumstances: A) There is an active warrant on the individual; B) There is a match on a sex offender check; or C) In the judgment of the on-duty point of contact or on-duty security staff, the person rejected or ejected presents a potential threat to the community; vi) The operating entity and temporary facility residents shall cooperate and collaborate with other providers of shelters and services for unhoused persons within the county, particularly with respect to provision of services and availability of resources; and vii) Upon vacation of a temporary facility, all temporary structures and debris shall be removed from the host site within one calendar week, unless otherwise permitted by the administrator. The site shall be restored, as near as possible, to the original condition, as identified in the site photos submitted with the application. Where deemed necessary by the administrator, the operating entity shall replant areas in which vegetation has been removed or destroyed. 3) Emergency Locator Address. Subsequent to approval, the operating entity shall apply to the department for an emergency locator address for purposes of emergency response. 4) Cchapter 15.05 JCC Compliance. The operating entity shall ensure that a temporary housing facility is at all times in compliance with the requirements of Cchapter 15.05 JCC with respect to building and fire code requirements. As a condition of approval of the temporary housing facility, the operating entity shall allow building and fire code officials reasonable access for inspection purposes. 5) Conditions. Because each temporary facility has unique characteristics, including, but not limited to, size, duration, uses, number of occupants and composition, the administrator may require conditions of approval to ensure that the proposal meets the criteria for approval listed above. Conditions, if imposed, must be intended to protect public health, life and safety and minimize nuisance-generating features such as noise, waste, air quality, unsightliness, traffic, physical hazards and other similar impacts that the temporary facility may have on the area in which it is located. The administrator may deny any application that does not meet the requirements of the code, except as allowed under subsection (6) of this section. 6) Modification of Requirements. The administrator may issue an approval that relaxes one or more of the standards in this code only when, in addition to satisfying the conditional use ATTACHMENT D HOUSING -RELATED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENTS REDLINE 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UDC PERIODIC REVIEW UDC-354 decision criteria, the applicant describes with specificity how the standard would be modified and demonstrates how the modification would result in a safe facility with minimal negative impacts to the residents, the host community, and the surrounding neighborhood. In considering whether the modification should be granted, the administrator shall first consider the effects on the health and safety of facility residents and the neighboring communities. The modifications may include mitigation requirements to minimize any negative impacts to the residents, the host community, and the surrounding neighborhood. Modifications shall not be granted if their adverse impacts on facility residents or neighboring communities will be greater than those without modification. The burden of proof shall be on the applicant. 7) Standard Operating Procedures. The administrator is authorized to establish standard operating procedures to implement the requirements of this section. [Ord. 5-22 § 3 (Appx.

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Hello Joel, In keeping with the interagency correspondence principles, I am providing you with comments on Jefferson County's comprehensive plan amendments (2025-S-10974A). For this proposal submitted via Planview, I looked at the proposal and focused on areas related to WGS work. Of note, but not limited to, I look for language around the geologically hazardous areas, mineral resource lands, mining, climate change, and natural hazards mitigation plan. Specifically in this proposal, for critical areas I reviewed the Foundation, Land Use, Natural Resources, Environment, and Climate Element. Kudos to you for making changes to the comprehensive plan. Overall the comp plan is thoughtful and well-written. It's nice to see the action plan parts of these elements! Foundation Nicely written. Critical areas is mentioned twice. Consider mentioning critical areas and noting the specific ones that Jefferson County has, the hazard mitigation plan, and other plans. It could be a mention that simply refers the reader to other parts of the comprehensive plan for more details. Some comp plans list the related plans like the hazard mitigation plan etc. Land Use Nice to have the description that the Land Use Element is arranged in four components. Good to see the three land use typologies, including natural resource lands. Thank you for noting that additional information on natural resource lands is found in the Natural Resources Element. Great to see Goal LU-G-7 "Preserve the functions, values, and resiliency of ecologically sensitive areas and protect development from the risks of environmental hazards." Goal LU-G-9 mentions hazard mitigation planning, that's the only mention of it in this chapter. Suggest mentioning the hazard mitigation plan that Jefferson County has. Suggest relating the hazard mitigation planning to all hazards, not just flooding. A word search shows that critical areas are mentioned 21 times. Great! Consider adding a sentence that states clearly what the critical areas are in Jefferson County. A word search shows that geologically is mentioned once, in LU-P-6.3 for geologically sensitive areas. Suggest describing which of the geologically hazardous area hazards are found in Jefferson County. If these are described in other parts of the code, please let the reader know that by mentioning and referring to those parts. Excellent to see a lot 1 of m aps in the Land Use Elem ent. Suggest having m aps of critical areas too or noting that those m aps w ill be in another e le m e n t.

We are indeed full steam ahead on completing that process. I am looping in Joel Peterson here, and our Comp Plan comment email, to ensure your comments below are entered into the record - I highlighed those Comp Plan comments in yellow below. As for the map. Despite a thorough search of DCD's files, the only map we've been able to locate is the attached Figure BR-9 from the Brinnon Subarea Plan (which I believe is what you already have on the brinnoninfo page). That map is marked 'proposed' but is reference in County Code explicitly. I've attached it here for regerence just in case. County GIS mapping shows the underlying zoning of the convienance cro ssroads around Yelviks and Rural Residential in the remainder of the WaW a point overlay. We do not currently have a layer for this in GIS, but that is something to explore. JC C 18.15.572 designates the Wawa Point area in Brinnon as the Small-Scale Recreation and Tourist (SRT) Overlay. Its purpose is to support small-scale recreation and tourist development that fits the needs, scale, and rural character of the BPA. Section (2) references Figure BR-9 of the Brinn on Subarea Plan: 2) Applicability. This section shall apply to all small-scale recreation and tourist uses identified in Table 3-1 in JCC 18.15.040 and subject to the performance standards identified in JCC 18.20.350. The WaW a Point SRT overlay district shall encompass those areas within the Brin non Planning Area identified on Figure BR-9 of the Brin non Subarea Plan. The provisions of this section constitute an overlay district i.e., floating zone) over the underlying rural residential districts at WaWa Point. All other provisions of this unified development code shall apply to such uses in the SRT overlay district unless otherwise exempted by this section.

Thank you for all your help. We really appreciate it. Mark This is how Al defines the "Brinnon Planning Area.'' The Brinnon Planning Area is a designated region in southern Jefferson County, WA, covering the unincorporated community of Brin non, located at the mouth of the Dosewallips River along Hood Canal. Defined by the Brinnon Subarea Plan (adopted 2002), this area spans from Rainbow Campground to the 2 Jefferson County line, guiding development and conservation between the Olym pic National Park and Hood Canal. It is heavily fo cused on managing rural development, specifically the proposed Pleasant Harbor M aster Planned Resort (M PR} at Black Point. Jefferson County, W A +4 Key details about the Brin non planning area include: Location & Geography: It extends north to south from Mount Walker to the Jefferson County line near Triton Cove, including the communities of Seal Rock, Brin non, and Duckabush. Jefferson County, WA +1 Purpose: The Subarea Plan directs development, preserves rural character, and manages land use, with a significant emphasis on tourism and forestry. Jefferson County, WA +3 Usage Examples/Developments: o Master Planned Resort (MPR): The area is famous for the proposed Pleasant Harbor Marina and Golf Resort, which plans to include 890+ residential units, a marina, a golf course, and commercial space. o Conservation/Recreation: The region is heavily forested, featuring Dosewallips State Park and serving as a recreational base for hiking, biking, and water sports.

If so, please forgive me for already having a different full plate. After my, admittedly, light perusal of the Comp Plan, I came away thinking the grand vision for a dense and walkable future will not be realized without a couple of significant policy recommendation additions. If residential density and walkability is a goal, then parking policy MUST be addressed so to greatly minimize the asphalt, sprawl, and lack of walkability that parking policy currently mandates. If a dense and walkable commercial core is a goal, then it is essential there be traditional mixed-use zoning. I only see antiquated zoning that got us into the car-oriented mess. Without these two changes, our county will continue its climate-killing, GHG heavy, car-oriented development pattern: sprawled, unwalkable. I strongly encourage you undertake these necessary changes. Yours, Scott G. Walker 1 May 13, 2026 Jefferson County Planning Commission Jefferson County Department of Community Development - CP 2025 Comments 621 Sheridan Street Port Townsend, WA 98368 RE: Written Comment in Support of Proposed UDC Amendments - 2025 Comprehensive Plan and UDC Periodic Review (PRRD Provisions) Dear Planning Commissioners and Planning Staff, We are writing in strong support of the proposed amendments to the Jefferson County Unified Development Code (UDC) as presented in the April 2026 Staff Report for the 2025 Comprehensive Plan and UDC Periodic Review. As applicants and future residents of a planned cohousing community in Jefferson County, we are particularly encouraged by the updates to the Planned Rural Residential Development (PRRD) provisions, which we believe represent meaningful and forward-looking progress for affordable, environmentally sensitive, rural housing in this county. We wish to highlight two specific amendments that are especially significant for our project and, we believe, for the county's broader housing goals: 1. Recognition of Substandard Lots as Eligible for PRRD (JCC 18.15.485) The addition of subsection (4) to JCC 18.15.485 - Minimum and Maximum Land Area Dwelling Unit Cap and Cluster Cap - is a significant and welcome change. Under the prior code, substandard lots were effectively barred from participating in the PRRD process, regardless of whether they were legally recognized lots of record. This created an inequitable barrier for rural landowners who hold smaller but legally valid parcels. The amended language now explicitly recognizes that substandard lots formally recognized as legal lots of record are eligible to apply for a PRRD, provided the proposal demonstrates that land area is sufficient to meet public health and environmental protection standards, and that the application is accompanied by a binding site plan. This is a thoughtful and appropriately conditioned expansion of PRRD eligibility that balances development opportunity with continued protection of rural character and public health standards. For our project - a cohousing community proposed on three contiguous, legally recognized substandard lots totaling 17 acres in the RR 1: 10 district - this amendment is the foundational change that makes our development concept viable. Without it, the PRRD framework would have remained inaccessible to us despite our lots being legally established and our project goals being fully consistent with the intent of the PRRD program: clustered, innovative housing design that preserves rural open space and fosters community. In ad ditio n , th e insertion of th e word s "short or long subdivisio n " to subsectio n (1) pe rm its us to m ove fo rw ard , since w e do no t ne ed a subdivisio n w ith our bindin g site plan . 2. Increase of Maximum Bonus Density to 40% of the Allowed Limit (JCC 18.15.520) The revision to JCC 18.15.520 - Modification of Permitted Densities - Density Bonuses - increasing the maximum bonus density to 40% of the allowed limit is equally important for projects like ours. In rural residential zoning districts such as RR 1: 10, base density yields are inherently limited by acreage. For smaller sites, the density bonus is not merely an incentive - it is often the only mechanism by which a meaningful cluster of housing can be achieved. The increase to 40% reflects a realistic understanding of what is required to make innovative rural housing viable. Our cohousing project, which includes a mix of existing dwellings and proposed new duplexes, is designed specifically around the kinds of public benefits the density bonus criteria are intended to reward: energy-efficient design, clustered building footprints that minimize land disturbance, shared infrastructure, preservation of open space, and a community governance model that promotes long- term stewardship of the land. We believe the updated 40% bonus threshold appropriately aligns incentive with outcome. Projects that genuinely meet the bonus criteria - as evaluated by the hearing examiner through a public process - should be able to achieve a density that makes the project financially viable while remaining fully compatible with rural character. The prior threshold did not reliably achieve this balance; the updated threshold does. Conclusion We commend the County for these amendments and encourage their adoption as proposed. Taken together, the recognition of substandard lots under JCC 18.15.485 and the enhanced density bonus under JCC 18.15.520 create a more equitable, flexible, and effective PRRD framework - one that is better aligned with Jefferson County's housing goals and the realities of rural land ownership. We look forward to participating in the public hearing process and to continuing our work with county staff to bring this cohousing project forward in a manner that reflects the values of both our community and Jefferson County.

World War I was on the heels of this time, starting in 1914.Jefferson County's geographical setting contributed to strategic military installations on our shorelines and corresponding economic development from World Wars I and II. The post-war decommissioning of coastal defense systems at Forts Warden, Townsend, and Flagler began a turn away from the military's contribution to the economy; and the industrial facilities that constructed them were largely gone.and the steel mill in Irondale ceased operation in 1911. Western Mill and Lumber Co. had closed in 1907 when the bottom fell out of the lumber market. 1913 marked the closure of the short-lived Alcohol Plant. This seems like too long of a sentence - could be a good idea to give these ideas a little more breathing room While residents may be developing a new entrepreneurial idea, just trying to get by and survive, or working to build a new future together on the edge of this rural wilderness, they form a diverse community with a distinctive and collective Jefferson County identity forging a future together. 1 See below in blue O Lf o Joel Peterson From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Cynthia Koan <cynthia.koan@gmail.com> Wednesday, May 13, 2026 8:10 PM Matt Sircely 2025 Comp Plan; Joel Peterson Re: Vision Statement snafus ALERT: BE CAUTIOUS This email originated outside the organization.

In recognition of our responsibilities, we submit the following co mments for Jefferson County's 2026 Draft Comprehensive Plan version, acknowledging that other comments may be offered in the future. We strive to maintain contact throughout this update process and look forw ard to future engagement opportunities. Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan Draft Policy Number and Language WDFW comment with WDFW suggestions in red) Land Use Element - Goals and Policies Policy LU-P-1.2: Establish future land use and WDFW suggests that the County consider including zoning designations, densities, and intensities that a reference to the County's latest Hazard Mitigation minimize and mitigate potential land use co nflicts, Plan in this policy. and displacement, and exposure to hazards. Policy LU-PS.2: Site essential public facilities in an W DFW is supportive of this policy. equitable manner with consideration for future climate-related hazards and with appropriate mitigation that balances local and regional objectives. Policy LU-P-6.3: Site transportation facilities in Land and habitat in Jefferson County provide critical locations which minimize the disruption of natural habitat connectivity links for the state. The habitat, floodplains, wetlands, geologically sensitive Washington Habitat Connectivitv Action Plan areas, resource lands, and other priority systems. identifies a priority eco logical connectivity zone in Western Jefferson County on Highway 10 1 just Page 2 north of the Hoh River, and two priority ecological connectivity zones in eastern Jefferson County on Highway 101. These connections should be considered to align with WAC 365-190-130{3l{al(i). Long-term Commercial Forestry, farmlands, preserves, and other parklands contribute to habitat connectivity and open space. Maintaining hese land uses provides multiple benefits including habitat connectivity and preserving the rural character of the county. It is recommended to consider how to include habitat connectivity into design plans where possible. For examples of projects that can support he ecosystem by providing habitat connectivity and movement corridors for both aquatic and errestrial wildlife, please reach out to WDFW and review the resources provided below. For resources for developing wildlife and open space corridors, please see: Landscape Planning for Washington's Wildlife: Managing for Biodiversitv in Develooing Areas Land Use Planning for salmon, steelhead and trout: A land use olanner's guide to salmonid habitat orotection and recoverv Washington Wildlife Habitat Connectivitv Working Grouo. WDFW's Habitat at Home, and WDFW's Habitat connectivity website. Policy LU-P-7.6: Develop land use ordinances that WDFW is supportive of this policy. To support this promote climate resiliency based on twork, WDFW recommends that the County take comprehensive watershed and salmon recovery into consideration the resources provided by the plans for the conservation, protection, and Agency's Priority Habitats and Species {PHS) management of surface and ground waters, program. The PHS program is the Agency's primary floodplains and estuaries, in order to maintain means of transferring fish and wildlife information water quality and quantity, provide potable water, from our resource experts to local governments. and to restore and protect fish habitat. The PHS program includes a list of management recommendations for habitat and species. Additionally, the County should consider reviewing the resources provided in the Department of Ecoloav's orotectina coastal communities resources, and WDFW's climate change resources. WDFW also recommends that jurisdictions review the WDFW's climate-change-resilient culvert webpage and Incorporating Climate Change into the Design of Water Crossing Structures: Final Page 3 Proiect Reoort for resources on how to incorporate climate-resiliency into water crossing designs. These resources should be used during the development of future water crossing designs. Policy LU-P-7.7: Proactively steward natural WDFW is supportive of this policy. We encourage systems and discourage development and land use local jurisdictions to use best available science decisions that significantly adversely impact the (BAS), as defined in WAC 365-195-900, to pursue natural environment and natural resources. efforts to create, maintain, and connect habitat corridors where possible for wildlife to use to prevent populations of species from isolation. Wildlife corridors, which can be found on forest lands, are important in promoting wildlife movement and preventing habitat fragmentation. When zoning amendments are proposed, WDFW recommends adding that this review should be conducted on a countywide basis to align with WAC 365-196-480 (2He). Ensuring that compatible zoning classes are adjacent to each other prevents land use conflicts. Please see the resources provided in Policy LU-P- 6.3. Policy LU-P-7.8: Manage built and natural WDFW supports this policy. environments in the county for resiliency to reduce Wildfire risk and impacts of climate change, such as increased flooding, extreme heat, and droughts. to infrastructure, the economy, natural resources. and human health.

Utility infrastructure planning should incorporate the benefits of these ecosystem Page 4 services to enhance natural environmental processes and long-term sustainability reducing risk. Natural water infiltration and attenuation processes help retain, cool, and filter water which benefit salmonids and other species. Protecting and restoring natural assets can be more cost-effective than engineered solutions. See WDFW's Landscage Planning for Washington's Wildlife which outlines that all landscapes, from the urban to forested areas, can contribute to maintaining ecological health that benefits people and wildlife. As a resource, WDFW recommends that the City consider evaluating the Department of Commerce's Menu of Measures specifically item #83, when implementing this policy. Policy LU-P-9.5: Strengthen development ~s a resource, WDFW recommends that the City regulations that promote compatible uses and consider evaluating the Department of Commerce's protection of health and safety in critical areas Menu of Measures specifically items #99 and #196, more prone to risks of extreme precipitation and when implementing this policy. looding.

Recognizing and integrating WRIA-based goals is an important step toward protecting and restoring habitat for salmon ids. However, WDFW recommends that WRIA 21 be added to this list since the County's Southwest section is included in his WRIA. Policy LU-P-13.2: Allow existing legal commercial WDFW recommends the County clearly state that and industrial uses that became nonconforming these legally non-conforming infrastructures must prior to the county's adoption of zoning regulations comply with GMA requirements of no net loss of P age 5 in 1989 or prior to subsequent zoning changes or critical areas functions and values as outlined in development regulations to expand or be replaced WAC 365-190-080 and WAC 365-196-830 when in Rural Residential areas provided that they do not expansions or replacements would occur. require additional urban levels of government service and they do not impose uncompensated additional costs to the taxpayers of Jefferson County for the provision of infrastructure, its replacement or improvement. Allow expansion or replacement, provided they do not conflict with natural resource industries or surrounding rural uses and results in no further adverse environmental impacts, including no net loss of critical areas functions and values, or neighborhood impacts, unless mitigated. Policy LU-P-13 .5: Allow and encourage a legal W DFW suggests adding "encourage" to this policy existing nonconforming use to change to a for added support for non-conforming buildings to conforming use allowed within the zo ne beco me conforming to current zoning classification in which the use is located. requirements. Rural - Goals and Policies Policy LU-P-15.3: Locate designated open space WDFW supports this policy and recommends that areas so as to provide connections with adjoining the County designate open spaces as a map overlay open space areas, offer visual relief for both on and for the comprehensive zo ning for the County. This off-site residents, enhance habitat values, and, mapping overlay would show how the County is Mthere appropriate, allow for recreational meeting the open space requirements outlined in opportunities. WAC 365-196 -335. The public benefits of integrating open space and corridor planning include increased opportunity for positive human- wildlife interactions, better management of stormwater, and more certainty for developers and landowners about where habitats will be designated as protected over the long term. We recommend jurisdictions work with local communities alongside intergovernmental and local partners to ensure that local corridors connect to regional corridors to support habitat connectivity across jurisdictional boundaries.

Policy LU-P-21.6: Explore opportunities for new When these opportunities occur, WDFW appropriately sized Rural Village Centers. recommends the County visit the Agency's PHS for the most recent maps to see how these centers may interact with priority habitat and species locations. Additionally, we recommend that the County visit the Washington Habitat Connectivity Action Plan website to see if any identified connectivity would be affected by a new rural village center. WDFW's Land-use planning priorities and resources is another location to find a wide array of information, ranging from best available science guidance to enhancing habitat and wildlife connectivity.

We encourage local jurisdictions to Page 8 use BAS to pursue efforts to create, maintain, and connect habitat corridors where possible for wildlife to use to prevent populations of species from isolation. For resources for developing wildlife and open space corridors, please see WDFW comments for Policy LU-P-6.3 and Policy LU-P-15.3. Goal NR-G-2: Encourage resource-based economic WDFW supports this goal because it highlights that activities, including markets for ecosystem services, ecosystem services play a vital role in the local hat are compatible with environmental quality. economy while being key in the local environment. Goal NR-G-3: Conserve and protect Forest Resource WDFW is supportive of the County's goal. To Lands for long-term economic use and support this goal, we suggest that the County environmental and health benefits. consider reviewing and incorporating example recommendations and policies from the Department of Commerce's Menu of Measures to support the long-term forest land ecosystems, while identifying opportunities and expanding incentives for forest landowners. One specific example is number 90 from the Menu of Measures that states, "Adopt a forest master plan and implementing ordinances to maintain and expand tree canopy cover, improve tree and watershed health, prioritize carbon sequestration, and build climate resilience.". We recommend reviewing this example because it places an emphasis on prioritizing retention of healthy trees and tree canopy, working at a landscape-level management level, and balancing the ecological and economic impact tradeoffs these areas may have.

The BAS emphasizes the county's streams and rivers, including efforts to ~he importance of protecting all streams and their mitigate climate change impacts such as flooding adjacent riparian areas to support full riparian and drought. ecosystem functions and values. These critical areas support the full ecosystem while providing movement corridors for both aquatic and terrestrial wildlife. WDFW recommends that jurisdictions consider following the updates from Ecology's WASHD program regarding the effort to create and Page 10 sustain a complete statewide hydrography dataset. This WASHD effort aims to update watercourse mapping to help ensure all state streams and associated riparian management zone (RMZ) natural resources are accurately identified. WDFW currently recommends using SPTH200 GIS mannlnz tool to delineate where riparian management zones (RMZ) are located. Policy CE-P-7.2: Protect and restore streams, WDFW supports this policy.

WSDOT has an interest in the Plan based on its transportation subject matter expert status and statutory authority to plan, locate, design, construct, improve, repair, operate, and maintain the state highway system (RCW 47.01.260(1)). The Plan contains extensive discussion and policy language supporting responsible growth, multi modal access, and active transportation. The plan also contains detailed analysis of the impacts from planned growth on the local, regional, and state transportation system. The analysis planned growth contributing to failing levels of service at four state highway intersections: SR-19 and Chimacum Rd SR-19 and SR 116 (Ness Corner Rd) SR-19 and Irondale Rd SR-19 and Prospect Ave RCW 36.70A.070(6)(a) states that the Plan should provide "specific actions and requirements for bringing into compliance transportation facilities or services that are below an established multi modal level of service standard." These actions might include alternative land use decisions, transportation demand strategies, targeted local road improvements, and if necessary, state highway capital improvements. We did not identify any such proposed actions in the Plan. As such, WSDOT does not view the Plan as sufficiently satisfying the environmental analysis requirements for SEPA Categorical Exemptions on housing streamlining (RCW 43.2 l C.229(3)(b)) or any other situation in which WSDOT has statutory review or approval authority. In such future situations, WSDOT will request detailed review of jurisdiction-wide cumulative impacts from all long-term planned growth during each individual project's development review phase. Please contact us (orplanview@wsdot.wa.gov) if you need assistance or have questions. WSDOT looks forward to continuing our coordination and partnership, Sincerely, George M azur, P.E.

Land Use - Rural Economy Per WAC 36$-196 425(4)/b), the GMA allows sanitary sewer infrastructure in rural areas if it is necessary to protect basic public health and safety and the environment, does not induce sprawling development, and is affordable by the community that it serves. The application of this allowance is being investigated in the Brinnon Rural Village Center, adjacent to Dosewallips State park's wastewater treatment facility. The county is working to address requirements of the GMA. while allowing limited service by the Dosewallips State park's system. Currently, Brinnon is served entirely by on-site sewer systems. These on-site sewer systems have current and potential problems, and some systems are located within flood zones. Other infrastructure improvements consistent with rural levels of service, such as improvements to fire flow, could support additional development, but improvements to existing commercial development and housing stock are unlikely to occur if the necessary infrastructure upgrades cannot take place.

Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan January 2021 8-31 LAND USE Since GMA's inception, the State of Washington Growth Management Hearings Board Hearings Board) has interpreted the GMA and its rules to local jurisdictions' comprehensive plans. Over the years, a body of law has developed, which appears to force counties to curtail innovation in rural area development, such as prescriptively establishing rural and urban densities and requiring tightlined LOBs in LAMIRDs. This imposes a difficult challenge when trying to meet affordable housing needs outside of designated urban growth areas. Some LAMIRDs, such as Chimacum, do not fit neatly within this urban rural dichotomy. This provides only two boxes, urban or rural for solutions to complex land use issues. Solutions may require more in-between areas to meet requirements, such as a greater focus on performance standards for some housing developments over a prescriptive residential density. Innovations to meet current housing crises is limited by GMA. If a county allows bonus densities in a rural cluster the resulting density after applying the bonus must be a rural density, which doesn't yield enough bonus density to enable the types of housing developments that can meet the challenges of providing density for affordable housing, even within a rural context. Jefferson County proposes to investigate provisions for planned residential developments and investigate the feasibility of alternative performance standards that could potentially increase rural residential density above the current maximum rural density. Jefferson County is aware that these options require a legislative amendment to the GMA. Rural Economy Jefferson County's rural economy has responded to economic conditions and market forces pivoting towards tourism, agricultural businesses, and small businesses. Our economy is similar to other rural economies, transitioning away from natural resource industries. Our rural economy needs infrastructure to support its economic activities and changes in modern infrastructure, such as the ability to scale wastewater management solutions to meet small community needs is evolving. Even though developments in infrastructure, such as small and innovative sanitary sewer systems may be able to support the overarching planning goals of GMA, while containing and controlling growth in rural areas, GMA generally precludes small and innovative sanitary sewer systems in rural areas as they are defined as urban levels of service. This ignores potential opportunities to provide modern, scaled treatment facilities to support a variety of community needs such as housing and economic development. Jefferson County is aware these rural infrastructure systems would require a legislative amendment to the GMA. Jefferson County GMA allows sanitary sewer infrastructure in rural areas when: ( 1) it# abates al'¼ public health and environmental problem, does not induce SJlrawliAg urban development, and is affordable by the community that it serves; (2) it is necessary to support a LAMIRD and it is consistent with the County-wide Planning Policies; or (3) supports a school located in the rural area serving both rural and urban students. Jefferson County is investigating sewering the Brin non LAMIRD, using the existing Dosewallips State Park sewer system. The Dosewallips State Park sewer treatment plant Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan January 2021 1-79 LAND USE is located in the Brinnon LAMIRD and its lines run through the LAMIRD to the Dosewallips State Park. Sewering Brinnon would alleviate known and potential environmental problems associated with on-site sewage systems, considering that the Brin non LAMIRD is located within the 100-year floodzone and is adjacent to the Hood Canal.

In a 2002 amendment to the GMA, the Washington State Legislature found that GMA is intended to recognize the importance of rural lands and rural character to Washington's economy, and find that rural lands and rural-based economies enhance the economic desirability of the State of Washington. To retain and enhance the job base in rural areas, rural counties must have flexibility to create opportunities for business development and to retain existing businesses and allow them to expand. The legislature's findings close with: Tlhe legislature finds that in defining its rural element under RCW 36. l0A.070(5), a county should foster land use patterns and develop a local vision of rural character that will: [h]elp preserve rural-based economies and traditional rural lifestyles; encourage the economic prosperity of rural residents; foster opportunities for small-scale, rural-based employment and self-employment; permit the operation of rural-based agricultural, commercial, recreational, and tourist businesses that are consistent with existing and planned land use patterns; be compatible with the use of the land by wildlife and for fish and wildlife habitat; foster the private stewardship of the land and preservation of open space; and enhance the rural sense of community and quality of life." In summary, as Jefferson County reviews rural commercial areas, we explore ways to meet GMA's fundamental purposes in flexible and meaningful manners. For example, flexibility in designating LAMIRDs, while meeting the purpose and intent of GMA would assist the County with contained and controlled development, enhanced rural economies, additional housing, preservation of natural resources, enhanced open space and parks, and enhanced rural character. The legislative findings for GMA include the conservation and wise use of our lands, along with sharing economic development with communities experiencing insufficient economic growth. GMA should not be a barrier for rural counties, but a platform to encourage sustainable, coordinated, and controlled growth and economic development in accordance with the public's interest.

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Dear Planning Commission. Having skimmed through this, I support these plan changes overall. I realize that many of the figures for rural v urban population growth presented on Wednesday evening are estimates; still, clear targets for anticipated growth are vital to planning. As a new resident to Jefferson County (coming from King County), trust me, the time to prepare for population growth is well before it happens. I can appreciate the honest time and effort put in to plan for this, kudos! As a resident of a cohousing community (Quimper Village) I can attest to the value of cohousing in providing density while preserving as much open area as possible. Many move here, I imagine, for the quieter life. I have lived in a very rural area of WA state prior to King County and I know how important peace and quiet is for many. I would rather hear the coyotes singing at night, than sirens. I note that a new cohousing community is working hard to be permitted and built, in a more rural part of Jefferson County. I refer to Newt Crossing. I understand that they are working with Chuck Durrett, who also designed Quimper Village. He has a lot of experience designing cohousing communities, decades worth, and I'm sure he will advise them appropriately for a good, well-built community. There are some items in this draft comprehensive plan that are needed for Newt Crossing to move forward, and I urge you to keep them to facilitate their construction and prepare for Jefferson County population increases. They are: page 300, section 18.15.485: keep the added words "short or long subdivision" (paragraph 1) and keep the added language about substandard lots (paragraph 4). 1 page 306, section 18.15.520: keep the language about increasing density to 40% if certain conditions are met (paragraph 3). I I do appreciate the time you all spent on this proposed draft. I did not hear a lot of pushback on W ednesday night and I know how important your work to date has been; and I hope that there are not a lot of revisions overall. I look forw ard to being a solid citizen of Jefferson County. I think there is another meeting next week to discuss public com m entary? Perhaps you can respond with the time and zoom link, thanks.

Dear Com m issioners: Thank you fo r the opport unity to review and com m ent on Jefferson County's draft co m prehensive plan and developm ent regulations. W e appreciate the ongoing coordination w ith our agency as you work to achieve the com m unity's vision consistent with the goals and requirements of the Gro wth Management Act (GM A). Grow th M anagem ent Serv ices received the pro posed am endm ent on April 16, 2026, and pro cessed it w ith m aterial identification num ber 2025-S-10 974A. W e have review ed your subm ittal using Com m erce's Periodic Update Checklist, and Expanded Housing Checklist. W e encourage you and your com m unity to co nsider the fo llowing as you finalize your drafts prior to adoption: 1. Land Use Element As part of our review , we did not find any policies or development regulations associated with organic material managem ent fa cilities. For consistency with RCW 36.70A.142, we recom mend explicitly allow ing the siting organic material managem ent facilities in areas identified by the Jefferson County Solid W aste M anagem ent Plan. 2. Transportation Element In our review , we noted tw o polici es related to ADA Transition Plans but could not find direct reference in the Transportation Elem ent to the self-evaluation of current facilities. W e did find Jefferson County's existing ADA Transition Plan, outside of the Com prehensive Plan documents. Page 1 of 3 Washington State Department of Commerce: Submittal ID 2025-S-10974A For consistency with RCW 36.70A.070, we recommend referencing the existing Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan within the Transportation Element. 3. Housing Element Adequate Provisions o In addition to the adequate provision work outlined in Appendix E and based on recent GMHB cases, we also recommend identifying gaps in local funding needed to achieve affordable housing needs and documenting which available local funding tools or incentives are already being used. o Guidance on this can be found in chapter 4 of Guidance for Updating Your Housing Element (pg. 60-62) and Appendix B: Adequate provisions checklist. 4. Capital Facilities Element While we did find inventories of existing capital facilities in our review of the Capital Facilities element, we did not find any references or identification of green infrastructure owned by public entities. For consistency with RCW 36.70A.070(3)(a), we recommend incorporating any existing green infrastructure facilities into your inventory of capital facilities, or explicitly calling out that none exist. 5. Development Regulations a. ADUs - In our review of JCC18.20.020(2){e), we found that door locations are specifically limited to one exterior entrance. For consistency with RCW 36. 70A.681(l){h), we recommend removing or clarifying this provision so that AD Us are not more restrictive than those for principal units. b. In our review, we found that the parking standards in JCC 18.30.100 that may require off-street parking for several residential housing project types that should not have off-street parking requirements. For consistency with RCW 36.70A.817, we recommend updating JCC 18.30.100 to explicitly exempt the following housing projects from the County's parking standards: i. Affordable housing. ii. New construction or the retrofit of existing buildings meeting passive house requirements. iii. Modular construction. iv. Mass timber construction. Alternatively, RCW 36. 70A.817 includes an empirical study pathway for the County to pursue, if you believe these projects should not be exempt from the parking standards in JCC 18.30.100. Finally, this code change is not due until 6 months after your periodic update is complete. c. In our review, we found that the height and setback standards outlined in JCC 18.18.050 and JCC 18.30.050 did not include provisions that would allow for the following flexibility: Page 2 of 3 Washington State Department of Commerce: Submittal ID 2025-S-10974A i. Allow for new construction or retrofits of existing buildings for residential housing to project into required setbacks and exceed height limits by up to eight inches to accommodate the addition of necessary insulation. ii. Allow for buildings meeting passive house requirements to project into required setbacks and exceed height limits by up to eight inches to accommodate the addition of necessary insulation. iii. Measure gross floor area must be from the interior face of the exterior walls. iv. Allow a building to exceed maximum roof height limits by at least 48 inches to accommodate a roof-mounted solar energy panel For consistency with RCW 36. 70A.810, .812, and .813, we recommend incorporating the ability to exceed height and setback standards in the above cases. Please note: This code change is not due until 6 months after your periodic update is complete. Finally, as a friendly reminder, copies of adopted plans and development regulations must be submitted to Commerce within ten days after final adoption (RCW 36. 70A.106(2)). Again, we appreciate the work your proposed amendments represent, and we wish you success in meeting the goals of the Growth Management Act. We are available for technical assistance and, if requested, can attend upcoming meetings with your Planning Commission and/or Council.

The wealth and wellbeing of Jefferson County communities and the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe (JST) are intricately tied to our waters, lands and marine resources. The com prehensive plan is a foundational document to provide guidance for land-use decisions in the com ing decade(s). The following comments detail our specific recommendations for the current draft of the Comprehensive Plan update. We appreciate your genuine review of our com m ents and continued engagement with the Tribe throughout this process. Sincerely, Alex Scagliotti Environmental Planner Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe Allie Taylor Tribal Historic Preservation Officer Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe Natural Resources Comments 1. The plan refers to "Tribes" regularly but does not define which Tribes should be engaged. The word "Tribes" should be defined and include not just Tribes whose reservations fall w ithin Jefferson County, but Tribes that have Usual and A ccustom ed (U&A) are as w ithin Jefferson County including the Jamestown S'K lallam Tribe and the other signatory Tribes to the Point No Point Treaty and outer coast tre aties. 2. Section 2: Natura l Resources a. 2.2 Trends and O pportunities-A quaculture (p. 7) i. The sentence that reads "Aquaculture requires high water quality for gro w ing; how ever, this m ay im pact the overall w ater quality, such as increased nutrient loads." is incorrect and m isleading. Shellfish aquaculture reduces nutrient loads and generally im pro ves w ater quality due to filter feeding pro perties of shellfish. This sentence may be re ferring to finfish aquaculture w hich is pro hibited in all W ashington m arine enviro nm ents. We suggest either removing the final tw o sentences of that para graph or rew ording to "Aquaculture require s high w ater quality for gro w ing and genera lly im pro ves w ater quality w hen gro w ers follow standard practices." ii. In the follow ing paragraph, the sentence "In-w ater finfish farm ing is conditionally allow ed in som e shore line designations by the Jefferson C ounty S horeline M aster Pro gram (S M P ), though the S M P discourages non-native finfish farm ing except in lim ited areas, and the State is phasing out certain net pen uses." is also incorrect. Non-native finfish farm ing is alre ady illegal in W ashington State per RCW 77.125.050 and 79.105.050. In addition, com m ercial finfish net pen aquaculture is banned in all m arine w aters as per W AC 332-30-138. W e suggest either rem oving this sentence entirely or rew ording to re flect the current status of finfish net pens. b. Policy N R -P -2.3 (p.24): Add the underlined w ording to "E xplore and implement incentives that encourage com pliance w ith 'best m anagem ent practices' by resource-based econom ic activities." 3. Section 5: Enviro nm ent a. Exhibit 5-7 has a bulleted point that should include the underlined w ording Engage local Tribes w ith usual and accustomed areas in Jefferson C ounty enviro nm ental planning and sustainability efforts" i. This is to include not just coastal Tribes w ith reservations in Jefferson C ounty but Tribes that also have a significant stake in the health of ecosystem s in Jefferson County that support tribal treaty rights. The Jam estow n S'Klallam Tribe ow ns several sm all parcels in Jefferson County that C ounty staff m ay not be aw are of but the Tribe's usual and accustom ed area (U&A) encom passes all of eastern Jefferson County and therefore should be included in w atershed and salmon recovery planning. b. Section 5.2 Trends and O pportunities i. W hile som e of the other chapters reference treaty-pro tected resources, Section 5 currently lacks this acknow ledgm ent. G iven the C om prehensive Plan's ro le in guiding long-term gro wth, it is essential that the Section 5 guiding principles on the enviro nm ent include the County's obligation to engage w ith Tribal nations.

Section 9: Clim ate elem ent a. W e recom m end expanding the Plan's coastal resilience language to include ero sion-pro ne shorelines and bluffs alongside flooding. There are regular refere nces to im plem enting adaptive strategies for flood-pro ne areas but none for shoreline infra structure at risk of coastal ero sion. Current guidance for built infrastructure should be clim ate-inform ed for all coastal risks. Since bluffs and low -bank shore lines serve a vital ro le in nearshore ecosystem s w hile also presenting significant hazards during storms and sea-level rise, the Plan should apply the sam e restrictive and adaptive guidance to ero sion- pro ne coastal areas as it does to floodplains. W e recom m end locating references to pro active flood pro tection m easure s and adding coastal ero sion in all re levant areas thro ughout the chapter, or establishing a new section that specifically addre sses adapting current and future infrastructure to changing shorelines by increasing setbacks, restoring naturally protective coastal shore forms and other adaptive strategies. i. As an example, policy CE-P-21 should be changed to include the underlined addition: "Discourage new or expanded development, including subdivisions, that would require flood control structures due to their location at or near a stream, channel migration zone, flood-prone area, or an area at risk of flooding, coastal erosion or sea level rise due to climate change. Cultural Resources Comments 1. Section 4: Open Space, Parks & Recreation, Historical & Cultural Preservation a. 4.3 Historic & Cultural Resource Preservation i. Much of this text is in past tense. Tribal people are still here today and continue to access these resources and important areas. We recommend Jefferson County update this text to present tense and only use past tense where appropriate such as when discussing village site locations. ii. Jefferson County is home to many federally recognized tribes but visited by other groups and tribes. Regarding the first sentence of the first paragraph under this section on page 4-8, we recommend the strikethrough edits and underlined additions to the following sentence: Prior to the arrival of European settlers and explorers, t Ihe area that is now Jefferson Countywes is. home to and visited by many Native American groups (First Peoples) including the Chemakum, Hoh, S'Klallam/Klallam, Makah, Quileute, Quinault, Suquamish, and T'ifo'ana skokcmtsn-e-ees peoples. iii. There are many upland sites that were utilized by tribal peoples. Regarding the second sentence of the first paragraph under this section on page 4-8, we recommend the underlined additions to the following sentence: "Permanent village sites and activity areas were concentrated near ocean and riparian resources for food access and mobility however, few villages were located in the upland river systems for access to upland resources." iv. Tribes not only collected food and medicinal plants but also manage and cultivate these resources. Regarding the last sentence on page 4-8, we recommend the strikethrough edits and underlined addition to the following sentence: "They also hunted-land mammals and birds, collected and manage food and medicinal plants ... " v. Regarding the second sentence on the first full paragraph on page 4-9, we recommend the strikethrough edits and underlined additions to the following sentence: "Specialized activity sites, such as W6fk seasonal camps and cedar cutting gathering areas can be found inland." vi. The Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe have an agreement with Jefferson County Historical Society for the use of tribal images. The top two images on page 4-9 are associated with the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe in some way. We request Jefferson County ask permission prior to use of these types of photos in such a widely shared document. vii. The final sentence on page 4-9 paragraph two explaining the territory of each Tribe is too simplified and incorrect in areas. We recommend a full rewording of the sentence to reflect an accurate representation of each of these Tribe's Usual and Accustomed areas and traditional use areas. viii. The final two sentences of paragraph three on page 4-9 discuss the importance of preserving cultural resource. We recommend Jefferson County include language that clearly states cultural resources are non- renewable and avoidance of impacts to cultural resources should be added to the goals and policies of this Plan. b. 4.4 Goals and Policies i. The language of this section does not include any specific actions that would assist in the avoidance, protection, and preservation of cultural resources such as cultural resource surveys prior to development. The Clallam County Shoreline Master Plan 35.25.160 provides excellent protections to both known and unknown cultural resources. The THPO recommends the Jefferson County add Policies 1, 2, and 3 from the Clallam County Shoreline Master Plan 35.25.160 listed below with the following edits: 1. "(1) Sites and resources having known or suspected archaeological, historic, or cultural value should be protected. These sites/resources are important, nonrenewable resources and many are in danger of being damaged or lost because of ongoing development. Wherever possible, sites should be permanently preserved for scientific study ancflor public obserVBtion consistent with 36 CFR BOO and Chapter 27.53 RCW. If the presence of an archaeological site is unknown then a survey should be conducted by an archaeologist. 2. (2) Proposed development on or adjacent to an identified archaeological, historic, or cultural site should be designed and operated to be com patible with continued pro tection of the archaeological, historic, or cultural site. 3. (3) The location of historic, cultural, and/or archaeological sites/resources should not be disclosed to the general public unless adequate pro visions can be put in place to ensure long- term pro tection and preserv ation of such sites/resources." ii. We recommend this section also reference cultural resource regulations Jefferson County is required to follow including but not limited to: Executive Order 21-02, SEPA, RCW 27.53, RCW 68.60, WAC 25-48, WAC 25-46, RCW 42.56.300, RCW 27 .44, RCW 68.50, etc. iii. Policy OS-P-5.1 1. We recommend the third bullet point add "through consultation" at the end of the sentence. iv. Policy OS-P-5.4 1. We recommend the word coordination be changed to consultation in this policy. General Comment The term "BIPOC" is used throughout the planning document. Many Tribal communities prefer using more specific language, as BIPOC fails to recognize the unique cultural and political standing of Tribes in our region. W hile also problematic, we recommend using the US Census Bureau's defined categories when discussing demographic data related to race if it is not possible to use the name of the Tribe.

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. While the plan does a strong job addressing land use, zoning, and affordability incentives, it does not appear to sufficiently address a key constraint in Jefferson County: the availability of construction labor, higher transportation costs, and longer project timelines. In a rural setting like ours, limited contractor capacity and the high cost of bringing in builders or construction materials from outside the region can significantly delay production or prevent housing developers from viewing the region as a viable location for any projects. I encourage the County to explicitly analyze this constraint and incorporate strategies to increase local construction capacity. Without addressing these factors, I am concerned that there is a risk the planned efforts for housing development will not translate into actual built units. Separately, our housing issues will not be solved without collaboration with local landlords. Right now there is a lot of hesitancy in the community around renting to low income households or those struggling with housing insecurities. Other areas across the country have County funded or led efforts to create programs and outreach to build trust between landlords, service providers, and provide safety nets against things such as damages or missed payments. The plan incorporates exploring tenants advocacy which is sorely lacking and needed in our area. However with the level of challenge we face in Jefferson County we leave out similar work with local landlords at our own peril.

Peters, County Administrator DATE: June 22, 2026 SUBJECT: WORKSHOP re: Strategic Plan Draft Implementation Report (Part 2) STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The performance time period for the current, adopted Jefferson County Strategic Plan is 2024-2028. This workshop is for follow-up review and discussion of the working draft mid-term Strategic Plan Implementation Report. ANALYSIS: Implementation of the Strategic Plan has proven challenging for a variety of reasons. This report, which was developed with consultant assistance from BerryDunn and the contributions of multiple county departments, represents a simplified version from the dashboard envisioned previously. This iteration of progress tracking represents a snapshot in time. While in the process of collecting data associated with objectives in the Strategic Plan, ideas have emerged about adjustments to the Plan’s objectives and corresponding metrics. FISCAL IMPACT: There are limited funds and time remaining in the BerryDunn contract. Staff anticipates continuing with implementation and progress reporting within adopted budgets. RECOMMENDATION: Complete review of the draft and listen to input from Strategic Plan Implementation Steering Committee members, participating department heads, and other staff involved in the implementation tracking process. Ask questions and offer feedback on the draft so that staff may make needed adjustments to complete this Implementation Report. Guide staff towards continual implementation tracking, as well as thinking ahead ot the next iteration of the county’s Strategic Plan. REVIEWED BY: Josh D. Peters, County Administrator Date 6/17/2026
