The proposal is intended to allow the Paradisz'fheatzr School in Chimacum to provide classes, workshops and pcrfomr:+nczs incompliance with County land use rcyuircments and to allow future growth and development of their educational and artistic non-profit organization. The proposal was to arnencf the text of the t!nified Dcvclopment Code {UUC) to change the Allowed l!se Table found at Section .040 of C'haptcr 18.15 of the JeRerson County Code (JCC)- JCC 18.15.040. "fhc applicant revised their original proposal on July 24, 2012 to instead rcyuest a change to the performance standards for small-scale recreation and tourist uses found at JCC 18.20.3 50. ANALYSIS: Attached is the proposed text amendment narrative submitted by the applicant. Upon preliminary review, staff had concern that the proposed change to the Allowed Use 7 able would be overly permissive, allowing every Rural Kesidential 1:5 zoned parcel to develop an `indoor entertaimnent and recreation facility' as a yes' use, where such lacilitics are currently prohibited as a 'no' use. Indoor entertainment and recreation facilities arc a type ofconnnzrcial uac dclined in JCC 18.10.090 as Ibllows: "Indoor entertainment or recreational facilities" means places designed and equipped for the conduct of sports and leisure-time activities, including, but not limited to, physical fitness clubs, bowling alleys. theaters. playhouses. and billiard rooms. Regular Agenda An early staff'consideration was to instead allow such facilities in RR I :> districts as a discretionary conditional use ("C(d)") to allow a greater Icvel of review on a case-by-case basis. Staff con[inued a preliminary review and considered other alternatives to achieve the inter[ of the applicant's proposal. Among the options considered, staff focls mast supportive of an alternative proposal change the mininwm acreage requirement for small-scale recreation and tourist uses when an historic resource is present. Small-scale recreation and tourist uses arc a type of land use defined in JCC 18.10.190 as follows: "Small-scale recreation or tourist uses" means those isolated uses which are leisure or recreational ir. nature; are reliant upon a rural setting or location; do not inclutle any new residential development beyond that allowed in the underlying land use district; and otherwise meet the performance standards in JCC 18.20.350. See RCW 36.70A 070(5)(d)(ii). StafTsupports this alternative amendment as one that will foster economic development by highlighting the mam historic and cultural resources located in Jefferson County. After further discussion with the applicant, Ihcy revised their proposal to this alicrnative.:1s staff completed a preliminary review oi'the proposal. an additional text amendment to the existing definition for 'historic site. structure or landmark' is proposed to ensure a broad range of local historic and cultural rcsourccs will be afforded similar opportunity for economic development not limited by the degree rn• category of historic or cultural signiticance. See attached document of Proposed l ext Revisions for this proposal. ALTF.RNATiVF.S: l'he I3oCC may accept the request to amend the IJDC and direct staff to place it un the 2012 Planning Conunission work plan, or decide to postpone or decline the rcqucst. FISCA[, IMPACT/COST I3F.NEFiT AN:~LI'SIS: Preliminary staff work has been covered by the initial Zoning Consistency Review fee paid by the applicant and by the General fund portion of DCD~s Annual f3udget. Additional fiscal impacts are recoverable since am further stall time expended to process the request shall be billed to the applicant. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the BoCC direct DCD to add the proposed UDC text arendment (~4L:11 I-250) to the 3012 work plan, proceed with the Planning Commission revie+v process. and hill the applicant frn all staff time related to processing the proposal. f2E~'IE~VEll BY: ~~ - ~.

Over the past eiglu years this building has been known as "The Paradise Theatre School." The Paradise Theatre School is a not-fbr-protii, 501(c)(3) organisation. This parcel is located very near the Chimacum General Crossroads at the SR 19/20 Intersection. Chimacum has been the home of the Olympic Music Festival for many years and more currently the home of Chimacum Corner Fannstand, Farm's Reach Restaurant and fancily farms with public facilities such as P'innriver Parm. \Qt. Townsend Creamery is making plans tier a possible store, restaurant, attd bed and breakfast directly across the street from The Paradise Theatre School. "There is a "Chinwcutn Renaissance" happening at the present time, and The Paradise Theatre School, anon-profit arts organization. is an ideal addition for cultural and economic development in this growing sustainable community. Historically, the building has been used as a public space for various commercial and non-profit ventures.l3ctbre the 'theatre was used as a t}tcatre school, the building was used as act antique store, a ballet school and an art school; it was origutally built in 1906 to be used as a Methodist Church for sermons, weddings, funerals, and other commuttit}=- oriented gatherings. The anticipated hour of operations for the public aze: Classes: six days a week,l4 hours a day or evening w;' no more than I S students per class rehearsal; and Performances: 8:OU -10:30 pm on select'1'hursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings and Sunday afrcrnoon totaling no more than 80 periomtanccs per year.

On-site parking is proposed for an estimated average of 25 cars with additieriat and- = •_,'r overflow pazking on site for a total of approximately 20 cars. We understand that in the past there w•as a concern expressed regarding parking aUneaz our si[c: It is important to note that this occurred during an outdoor perfimnance when an unexpected and unprecedented ntunbcr ofpeople attended a play. The outdoor plays are now conducted at H. J. Carroll Park, free of charge to the public. There will be two theatre instructors living on site in a separate dwelling unit. Who we are: The Paradise Theatre School is a leading educational and culhral force nn the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, encouraging discipline and theatrical risk- taking in our students, producing uncompromising new plays and adaptations of the highest quality, and addressing the problems and possibilities of our times. What we do: Offer classes and performances to the residents, including low-income youth and adults, of Jefferson County and its visitors. Why we do it: The Paradise creates community by advocating for the audiences and students we serve in all the work we do. We arc committed to making The Paradise Theatre School's unflinching creative aesthetic accessible to the widest possible audience. At The Paradise, our ambition is to create an educational experience so astonishing, thought provoking, and of such high quality that uninitiated students are moved to attend local arts events, and then moved again to be expressive artists in their own right. Comtnunity members who are supported in attending theatrical classes and perfonnanccs benefit from experiences that can result in wider scholastic attd employntcnt options, as well as increased potential for civic engagement. Our friends at the Jefferson County Bard College Clemente Course in the Nttmcrnities have demonstrated that low•cr income citizens who receive access to studies in the Humanities for the lust time in their lives experience growing levels of civic engagement attd self-sustainability. VVe note similar results from students and attendees of our progranmting. W'e wish to note that Jefferson County is not overrun by Utcatrc instructional programs or live theatre. We believe The Pazadise Theatre School is an essential ingredient in the cultural and much-needed economic revival of the Chimacum area. The Paradise ~1'hcatre School practices anon-discrimination policy of dignity and independence for its students which prohibits discrimination and harassment and protects the right to be free of hate activity based on race; color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, n_ ational c~riain, political alTiliation, or veteran status. _ ~ = ~I `;;~ -- Vv'e hope you will understand our lack of familiarity with this type of application and hope that, if we made any errors. you will inlimn us so that w•e may correct theta inunediately. ,:r We do request prior notification for purposes of re~~iew or inspection Otu contact information can be found below.
