The change would eliminate the one lot/single use crossroads and some uses would become non -conforming within a crossroads. The Planning Commission also revisited other commercial areas and took the following action: • Brinnon: reconfirmed the boundary and proposed a strategy to be incl a in the Plan to investigate establishing an additional area for commercial developmen tside of the tloodplain. • Four Corners: delete the intersection as a Rural Crossroads b n fa t that the businesses, other than the convenience grocery, were industrial in a did serve the immediate, local neighborhood population and could be permi a ondt io ally utside of a commercial zone. • Discovery Bay: reconfirmed the boundary based on ncern ou traffic accidents, construction in a floodplain, and protection of critical area . • Nordland: delete the crossroads location, based on ' ng n o t d business on one lot. 28.

Critical areas which require regulation by Jefferson County are: 7 wetlands; areas with a critical recharging effect on aquifers 8 used for potable water; fish and wildlife habi t conservation 9 areas; frequently flooded areas; and geolog c lly hazardous 10 areas. 11 12 25. Implementation of appropriate design and g eer techniques 13 and practices are needed to avoid inco 1 elopment in 14 critical areas and prevent harm to the u ic. 15 16 26. Jefferson County is currently mitig is occurring in 17 these areas based upon the substant a t or y granted by the 18 State Environmental Policy Act, 4 2 19 20 27.

Th e e on County Board of Commissioners has reviewed and 45 c d ed the relevant provisions of Chapter 365-195 WAC in 46 el g the classification and designation criteria for 47 c cal areas within this ordinance. 48 49 h se regulations are designed to satisfy the requirements of 50 C pter 36.70A RCW with regard to all critical areas. Frequently 51 oded areas are protected through the Jefferson County 52 oodplain Management Ordinance (Ordinance No. 1-89), which is 4 1 incorporated by reference within this ordinance. The County 2 elected to protect frequently flooded areas through this 3 regulation due to the Floodplain Management Ordinance requiring 4 detailed description of proposed development in a flood hazard 5 area using all available data and it considering base flood flow, 6 coastal flood hazards, and increased flood flow due to 7 development. 8 9 34. Through studying the materials provided by legal view and fully 10 considering formal public testimony, tog t ith Chapter 11 36.70A.020 RCW, the Jefferson County Board i sioners has 12 determined that these regulations prop r al n e the GMA 13 composite goals by allowing tradeoffs am a om , social and 14 environmental values that are appropriat J fferson County. 15 16 35.

The purpose of this ordinance is to protect critical areas against development proposals that pose adverse environmental impacts which threaten public health, safety and welfare. In accomplishing this, the ordinance factors the composite goals of the Growth xanagement Act, Chapter 36.70A.020 RCR, and allows for tradeoffs among economic, social and envi ental values. None of the protections provided by the ordinan eek to confer an uncompensated benefit to the public. 2. The intent of this ordinance is to facili to a ceasing of relevant land use applications in a time �fh o ith minimum intrusion on individual freedom, and w th m mum consistency and predictability. 3. In the pursuit of fairness and equi fo bal cing individual and collective interests, th o e is dedicated to enhancing the quality of lit r itizens of Jefferson County.

PREFACE In November 1972, the people of the State of Washington enacted the Shoreline Management Act (RCW 90.58). The primary purpose of the act is to provide for the management and protection of the state's shoreline resources by planning for reasonable and appropriate uses. The law provides a two-tier planning effort by the state and local gove�ent. By law, the city and county are each responsible for the following: 1. Development of an inventory of the natural characteristics 4an atterns along shorelines covered by the act. 2. Preparation of a "Master Program" to determine the futur of�"o elines. 3. Development of a permit system to further the goals a ies both the act and the local Master Program. HOW THE P W KS The Jefferson -Port Townsend Shoreline nagement aster Program is a planning document that outlines goals and policies for the sh e i es of the county and city. It is also a regulatory ordinance with performance standards f e ment intended to implement the goals and policies. /� When planning a project near t� ore ink; onsult with the Jefferson County Planning and Building Department or the Cit o ort Townsend. The county or city shoreline administrator will determine�h� oreline permit is required and provide assistance in the permit application proces . All shorelines subj ct t e o erne Management Act are given a shoreline environmental designation. T si atao stem is designed to encourage uses most appropriate for particular areas a h ce the character of that shoreline environment. The shoreline designations are n n t map supplied with this program and defined in Appendix "A". Shoreline preference well ash AdvisQ'ry T lassified as "primary", "secondary", or "conditional", in order of pr p iateness on a particular shoreline. Secondary and conditional uses, as s, quire review by the Jefferson -Port Townsend Shoreline Management fission prior to action by the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners or end City Council. In addition, permits issued by local governments for and variances require final approval from the State of Washington. ii 435974 Pose: 492 of 641 Jefferson County, WA POPE MMOLOMS N8041 �1:40A TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION1 RECITALS.................................................................................. 1 1.10 FINDINGS................................................................................. 1 1.20 PURPOSES............................................................ .............1 1.30 TITLE...................................................................... .......... 4 SECTION 2 DEFINITIONS ........................................... .... ..... 5 SECTION3 SCOPE......................................................... �...................20 3.10 GEOGRAPHICAL JURISDICTIO ............ ....................20 3.20 LIBERAL CONSTRUCTION ......... .............................21 3.30 APPLICABILITY ............ .... ... ............................22 3.40 EXEMPTIONS .............. .............................................23 3.401 Administration ... ...........................................23 3.402 Permit Exemptions . ..................................................23 SECTION 4 SHORELINE DE G TIONS AND PROJECTS ...............28 CLASSIFICATIONS 4.10 SHORELI,E ENTAL DESIGNATIONS ......... 28 4.101 A .......................................... .28 4.102 Natu a.....................................................................30 4.103 ns rva................................................................... 30 4.104 u ur n.......................................................................31 1, r ..........................................................................31 wnsend Urban Waterfront Special District ........ 33 4.20 J LASSIFICATIONS..............................................35 01 rimary .........................................................I..................36 .20 econdary ........................................................................36 Conditional..................................................................... 37 4 Prohibited.......................................................................37 .205 Unclassified.....................................................................38 0 , 4.

In addition, it finds that over increasing pressures of additional uses are being placed on the shorelines, necessitating increased coordination in the management and development of the shoreline of the state. The legislature further finds that much of the shorelines of the state and the up adjacent thereto are in private ownership and that unrestricted construction on the i wned or publicly owned shorelines of the state is not in the best public interest; th o 0o Mated planning is necessary in order to protect the public interest associated t sho el nes of the state which, at the same time, shall be consistent with public inte Th r is, t erefore, a clear and urgent demand for a planned, rational, and concerted effort, 'oint performed by federal, state, and local governments, to prevent the inherent h c rdinated and piecemeal development of the state's shorelines.

In n i e q t re developments produce wastes in the form of feces, urine, and unconsuz4e e th t affect the bottom environment and water quality. Extensive aquacultur ntis the rearing within structures of aquatic organisms that feed on a naturally- c ing d supply. Passive aquacultur i e on-Aructural cultivation and/or harvest of naturally occurring or artificially seeded a u tic o g nisms that feed on a naturally occurring food supply. Passive aqua a ay include the cultivation and/or harvest of clams, oysters, geoducks, ghost sAiri dot r organisms in intertidal -or subtidal areas. P �s'v"'earisti a ltu� may also include measures to maintain or enhance the natural habitat ecessary for successful propagation and growth of cultivated or wild aquatic orga 's marine shorelines these measures could include adding gravel to shellfish beds in orde 'mprove shellfish habitat or creating artificial reefs. In streams or rivers these measures could include excavating pools, placing stream bed control structures, or adding 44 I�IIII�II�B�IIIPOPE KNWCES 435974 M spawning gravel in order to improve fish spawning or rearing habitat. These enhancement measures would be reviewed as passive aquaculture and in addition be subject to the other applicable policies and performance standards of this Master Program. Aquaculture can be carried out in subtidal, intertidal, upland, and fresh water areas. The subtidal area is seaward of the line of extreme low tide. The intertidal area is seaward of the ordinary high water mark and landward of the line of extreme low tide.ie upland area is landward of the ordinary high water mark. Aquaculture is further divided into floating aquaculture, where organi are s spended in water by pens, nets, or lines; seabed aquaculture where org i s re It ated and harvested along the bed of a body of water; and upland aquac re h re anisms are grown landward of the ordinary high water mark.

MASTER PLANNED RESORTS Master planned resorts (MPRs) are large-scale, self-contained developments that are based on an integrated,'conceptual master plan, yet are typically developed in stages depending o market demand or other factors. Recent amendments to the Growth Management Act (GMA) ai jurisdictions to recognize existing master planned resorts which may constitute urban growth o id o Urban Growth Areas as limited by RCW 36.70A.362. Jefferson County currently contains one master planned resort, Port Ludlo , an hibe siting of e any additional MPRs. T master planned resort of Port Ludlow is ch ter" both single-family and multi -family residential units with attendant recreational facilitie c in marina, resort and convention center, and is one of Jefferson County's fastest grown m u We Located on Port Ludlow Bay and surrounded by an area of significant natural am n ties, o Lu low is suited to be designated as a master planned resort. Port Ludlow is managed by Olympic Resources Manage e t (O corporation which is responsible for the phased development of the community and s . Al o gh Port Ludlow is a planned development, its overall phased development pattern m cha a according to changing market conditions. Any change in the development pl ill need to be reviewed for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and for compliance with Pon-1,umRw's FEIS and all applicable federal, state and local regulations. Currently, a development agree en 's 'ng prepared between ORM and the County that, if adopted, will allow for flexibility in the vr2 de'veopment of the Port Ludlow master planned resort within the limits of a residential dap f �res ential units and a total of 65,000 sq. & of retail/commercial development. 7 The Comprehensive Plan contains pol' 'es in 25.0 that help guide development at Port Ludlow.

DESIGNATION OF RtMAL-RESIDENTIAL DENSITIES Jefferson County be a th the best means available to retain open space, environmental qualities, traditional land us s, and o her elements of rural character is through low density residential development, small- a I village centers and crossroads, and where appropriate, resource -based industrial uses hat c no accommodated within the UGA of Port Townsend. Dens est at' ns and development regulations ultimately guide the pattern and intensity of develo en a he Growth Management Act does not specifically identify appropriate densities, it d state t t variety of rural land use densities should be provided for residential uses. The densities e ' ed ar uided by the County's analysis of Growth Management Hearings Board rulings, and are base on is ng development patterns, available land, projected growth rate and level of service standards.
