DATE: November 5, 2018
SUBJECT: CURRENT USE ASSESSMENT - OPEN SPACE/OPEN SPACE. The request is for
classification of 137 acres between four (4) separate parcels to be classified as open space/open
space under the current use tax assessment program RCW 84.34. The subject parcels were
acquired to help preserve a riparian corridor from the headwaters of the Duckabush River in the
Olympic Mountains to the marine waters of Hood Canal. All parcels are within a restrictive
conservation easement held by the Jefferson County Land Trust for the purpose of permanently
conserving the property for its significant habitat and resource value. This process requires public
notice with a public hearing and recommendation by the Jefferson County Hearing Examiner,
with an open space tax agreement signed by the Jefferson County Board of County
Commissioners. Applicant/Property Owner: Jefferson Land Trust - Case # MLA17-
0096/CUA 17-00001
ATTACHED:
1) Hearing Examiner Report and Recommendation
2) Treasurer's documents certifying Taxes Paid on Real Property
3) Open Space Tax Agreement (in triplicate)
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
The applicant owns parcels 502073003, 502074007, 502074028 and 502171013, sized at approximately 137
acres total non-contiguous but all part of an important wildlife habitat corridor located along the Duckabush
River, Brinnon, WA. The applicant wishes to place all 137 acres in current use taxation assessment as Open
Space/Open Space under the provisions of RCW 84.34 and Jefferson County Resolution # 82-91. The
Jefferson County Hearing Examiner rendered a positive recommendation to the Jefferson County
Commissioners to reclassify subject parcels to Open Space/Open Space Current Use Tax Assessment under
the Jefferson County Open Space Tax Program.
ANALYSIS/STRATEGIC GOALS/PROS and CONS:
The Jefferson County Hearing Examiner conducted an Open Record Public Hearing on August 28, 2018
considering the request of the Applicant to transfer 137 acres from vacant and forest designated land to Open
Space/Open Space under provisions of RCW 84.34 and Resolution # 82-91. The heart of the analysis for an
application under the Open Space Tax Program is the Public Benefit Rating System. The Hearing Examiner
reviewed the staff report, testimony and the Public Benefit Rating System worksheet and concurred with the
staff evaluation and assignment of 12 points for the public benefit rating, the maximum number achievable.
Consent Agenda
ALTERNATIVES:
The requested action is a Board of Commissioners legislative action to approve the applicant's request to
transfer and designate 137 acres for current use tax assessment as Open Space/Open Space, remand back to
the Hearing Examiner, or deny the application.
FISCAL IMPACT/COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
In exchange for transferring and designating the 137 acres for current use assessment, the property owner
will receive a benefit of reduced property taxes; the public will benefit in the long-term open space of the
subject property, by protecting wildlife habitat and preventing the conversion of land to non -open space
uses. The Public Benefit Rating of 12 points provides an assessed property value of approximately 10% less
the assessed value after enrollment in the Open Space/Open Space program.
RECOMMENDATION:
Per the recommendation of the Department of Community Development and the Jefferson County Hearing
Examiner, approval is recommended subject to the applicant's compliance with conditions and entering into
an Open Space Taxation Agreement with the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners and recorded at the
expense of the applicant.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Jefferson Land Trust
1033 Lawrence Street
Port Townsend, WA 98368
David Wayne Johnson, Associate Planner
Reclassification of 137 acres in four separate parcels presently classified as Forestland
and Vacant Land to Open Space/Open Space under the current use tax assessment
program RCW 84.34. The parcels are located adjacent to the Duckabush River, Brinnon.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATION: Request granted, subject to conditions.
PUBLIC HEARING:
After reviewing the Jefferson County Department of Community Development Staff Report
and examining available information on file with the application, the Examiner conducted a
public hearing on the request as follows:
The hearing was opened on August 28, 2018, at 3:30 p.m.
1".
Parties wishing to testify were sworn in by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were submitted and made a part of the record as follows:
SEE ATTACHED INDEX LIST
The Minutes of the Public Hearing set forth below are not the official record and are
provided for the convenience of the parties. The official record is the recording of
the hearing that can be transcribed for purposes of appeal.
DAVID JOHNSON appeared, presented the Department of Community Development Staff
Report, and testified that the parcels also are covered by a restrictive easement owned by
the United States Navy. The Jefferson Land Trust owns all of the property. The parcels
are zoned RR and CF -80 and are vacant. The zoning will not change, only the tax
classification will change. The Critical Areas Ordinance does not apply as the applicant
proposes no development. The Jefferson County Open Space Tax Program is based on
RCW 84.34. A tax classification change is exempt from SEPA review. The Jefferson
County Assessor agrees with the request and all its concerns are satisfied. The County
provided proper notice of the application and the hearing. Staff evaluated the public
benefit rating based upon the applicant's worksheet. He stopped his calculation at the
maximum of 12, but the benefit is much higher. The property's market value will receive
the maximum reduction to ten percent. The big criteria is the transfer of development
rights that ensures no development. No taxes are due on the property. The Examiner
should issue a recommendation of approval to the Board of Commissioners.
SHERRIE SHOLD, Jefferson County Assessor's Office, appeared and testified that the
signing of the TDR allows the Assessor's Office to change the classification without
payment of any taxes due. The proposal keeps the property on the tax roles.
SARAH SPAETH, Jefferson Land Trust, appeared and thanked the County for working
with the Trust on the matter. They are working to preserve critical areas along both the
Duckabush and Dosewalops River that includes a salmon recovery project. The project is
supported by both County and State funding, both of which require the deed restrictions.
She is very excited about the property as they will now have a corridor almost all the way to
the National Forest. Moving the property outside of the Forestland designation is good, but
they will need to do selective thinning. They are happy to pay the tax on the thinning that is
allowed under the restrictive easement with the Navy.
DAN THREATT appeared and testified that he represents family members that previously
maintained a trail that served four lots. He has concerns about the ingress and egress into
his neighborhood from Mountain Trail Road. The end of their development abuts the Trust
Land property and they need a trail 250 feet long by eight foot wide to provide an
emergency access for their area. They need the safety component of an alternate access
into and out of their area. They are requesting that the Trust grant them an easement for
2X
the emergency access. He fishes the river and has noted better runs over the past couple
of years. It is important to have an EVA, especially for elderly residents in the
neighborhood. The Duckabush River floods every year and they cannot get out at the
lower end, but they could get out with an emergency access over the Trust property.
MS. SPAETH reappeared and testified that she will talk about it with the Navy, but that
funding for the salmon recovery program may prevent the easement. She indicated that a
trail might be possible without an easement.
CHERYL THREATT appeared and testified that the trail from Mountain Trail Road to
another road is in place. It is not a matter of if, but when the river will again flood. The trail
then becomes their only way out. She was not notified about the hearing. They need
another access that would measure only 215 feet long and 15 feet wide. Such would
provide access for the fire department.
MR. JOHNSON reappeared and testified that the County has no ability to require an
easement as part of the present process. He recommended that Mr. and Mrs. THREATT
involve the fire department in their pursuit of an emergency vehicle access.
No one spoke further in this matter and the Examiner took the matter under advisement.
The hearing was concluded.
NOTE: A complete record of this hearing is available in the office of Jefferson
County Department of Community Development.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATION:
FINDINGS:
The Hearing Examiner has heard testimony, admitted documentary evidence into
the record, and taken this matter under advisement.
2. The subject proposal is categorically exempt from State Environmental Policy Act
(SEPA) review pursuant to Section 197-11-800(14)(k) of the Washington
Administrative Code (WAC).
3. Notice of Public Hearing (see log item 10).
RCW 84.34.037 requires noticing ten days prior to the public hearing.
Notice mailed to adjacent property owners and agencies: August 14, 2018.
Applicant posted notice on property: August 16, 2018.
Publication of Legal Notices: August 15, 2018 (Port Townsend -Jefferson County
Leader).
3X
4. The applicant, Jefferson Land Trust, has a possessory ownership interest in four,
separate parcels of property that together contain 137 acres. The four parcels are
presently classified for tax purposes as Forestland and Vacant Land. The applicant
requests to change the current use tax assessment for all four parcels to Open
Space/Open Space.
5. The applicant acquired all four parcels for the purpose of preserving a riparian
corridor for the Duckabush River between the Olympic National Forest and Hood
Canal. The four parcels are subject to a restrictive conservation easement owned
by the U.S. Navy, which also desires to conserve the property.
6. All four parcels are located on the south side of the river and vary in size between
4.41 acres and 109.23 acres. All four parcels consist of pristine open space
covered by mature native vegetation with some small clearings.
7. Two of the parcels are located within the Rural Residential 1:20 (RR 1:20) zone
classification, and two parcels are within the Commercial Forest (CF -80) zone
classification. The applicant obtained title to the property pursuant to a statutory
warranty deed issued by the Trust For Public Land on December 23, 2015. Critical
areas on the site include a Natural Shoreline designation, Sight landslide hazard
areas, High Risk Channel Migration Zone, FEMA Flood Zone, and Susceptible
Aquifer Recharge Area. The applicant proposes to maintain the parcels as
undisturbed open space with the exception of necessary tree thinning. The
reclassification will have no effect on the critical areas.
8. The Jefferson County Board of Commissioners adopted the Jefferson County Open
Space Tax Program by Resolution 82-71 dated August 12, 1991. Pursuant to said
Resolution, the applicant submitted a completed application to convert the 137
acres currently classified as Forestland and Vacant Land to Open Space/Open
Space. The entire ownership provides important habitat for wildlife and fish. Except
for the thinning, the applicant proposes no commercial timber harvest on any of the
parcels.
9. Part IV of Resolution 82-91 addresses "Open Space Land" and refers to RCW
84.34.037 that provides factors for the County to consider before placing a parcel
into the Open Space/Open Space tax assessment. Such factors include an
assessment of whether the parcels would conserve natural resources, protect
streams and stream corridors, protect unique or critical wildlife and native plant
habitat, and/or promote conservation principles by offering educational
opportunities. Preserving the applicant's parcels as proposed would recognize all of
the above goals. The area supports numerous wildlife habitats, and the applicant
presently operates a salmon recovery program on the Duckabush River funded by
the County and the State. Classifying the parcels as Open Space/Open Space also
implements the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan goal of retention of fish and
wildlife habitat.
4X
10. Section IV of Part IV of Resolution 82-91 sets forth a list of eligible resources for
consideration in determining whether a parcel is appropriate for inclusion in the
Open Space/Open Space current use assessment. Subsection A sets forth "High
Priority Resources". The parcels contain numerous such resources and therefore
satisfy the goals and policies set forth in Section III(A)(B) of Part IV of Resolution
82-91. Said parcels preserve open space, protect high priority shorelines, fish and
wildlife habitat areas, constitute a resource with biological sensitivity, and are held in
perpetuity against conversion to non open space uses.
11. Section IV, Part V of Resolution 82-91 sets forth detailed descriptions of eligible
resources to be considered in determining whether a parcel is appropriate for
inclusion in the Open Space/Open Space current use assessment. Subsection A
sets forth "High Priority Resources", and the site contains numerous such resources
as follows:
A. High priority wetlands
B. Significant fish and wildlife habitat areas
C. Special animal and plant sites
D. Surface water quality buffer areas
E. Flood plains
12. According to Part IV Section VI the current use value of open space lands is
determined by using the Pubic Benefit Rating System (PBR). Said system requires
the County to rate each parcel proposed for open space lands for resources,
access, transfer of development rights, and County policy goals. The Department of
Community Development has evaluated the PBR in accordance with the standards
set forth in Part IV Sections V and VI of the Resolution and has assigned a PBR of
at least 13 points to all parcels. However, the maximum points allowed, under the
PBR system is 12. Therefore, all four parcels warrant the maximum rate allowed.
The Examiner agrees with staffs assessment of said standards as set forth on
pages 5 and 6 of the Staff Report.
13. Residents of the area appeared to express concerns regarding the lack of
emergency vehicle access (EVA) to their community during times of flooding of the
Duckabush River, which they assert frequently occurs. Residents request that the
applicant grant an approximately 215 foot long, 15 foot wide easement that would
allow EVA to their area during times of flooding. The applicant's representative did
not oppose the easement, but expressed concerns regarding whether such would
violate the terms of the salmon recovery program and the Navy's easement.
Residents had not spoken with the fire department regarding its position on the
issue.
5X
14. Granting of an EVA easement is a separate issue from the reclassification of the
parcels to the current use tax assessment of Open Space/Open Space. No criteria
set forth in either the RCW or JCC either authorize or require granting of an
easement to provide EVA as a condition of approval. However, residents testified
that as many as 50 to 60 people reside in their area, some of which are elderly.
Therefore, the Examiner would request that the Board of Jefferson County
Commissioners facilitate a solution, if possible.
CONCLUSIONS:
The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to consider and make recommendations on
the issues presented by this request.
2. Based upon the above findings it is hereby recommended that the Board of
Jefferson County Commissioners enroll/reclassify the applicant's Parcel Nos.
502073003, 502074007, 502074028, 502171013 located along the Duckabush
River into the Jefferson County Open Space Tax Program as Open Space/Open
Space Lands Current Use Assessment with a Public Benefit Rating of 12 points,
subject to the following conditions:
As required in Part I, Section 1, B of Resolution 82-91, prior to approval, the
applicant shall provide certification of "no delinquent property tax" issued by
the Jefferson County Treasurer. Approval will be denied if the landowner has
failed to satisfy any judgments Jefferson County has obtained against the
landowner, or if the landowner owes any fee to Jefferson County, or has
failed to pay traffic fines or penalties of the Jefferson County District Court.
2. Any compensating tax due at the time of the transfer shall be paid in full, as
required under Section I (B). A certification from the Jefferson County
Treasurer for non -delinquent property taxes shall be required.
3. The applicant shall enter into an Open Space Taxation Agreement with
the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners. The executed
agreement shall be recorded at the expense of the applicant.
RECOMMENDED this 10th day of September, 2018.

RE: CUA Decision
David,
FYI- I was actually the holding the Tax Certificate up, I needed to process a correction with the Treasurer; this correction
has been completed.
The Treasurer's Office does not have a Tax Certification form so they will provide a Tax Summary printout for each
parcel showing all taxes are current/paid in full for the tax year 2018.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
