The hearing will be held by the Jefferson County Hearings Examiner to review and receive comments on a Type III Land Use Application. APPLICANT: EXTEND YOURSELF, LLC ANDREW NORDSTROM C/O LANE POWELL PC 1420 5TH AVE STE 4200 SEATTLE, WA 98101-2375 Application Received Date: August 12, 2021 Application Complete Date: August 23, 2021 Application Notice Date: September 8, 2021 Notice of RESCHEDULED hearing: April 13, 2022 Notice of RESCHEDULED hearing x2: May 11, 2022 Date of Hearing: May 26, 2022 SITE ADDRESS AND PROJECT LOCATION: Parcel #'s: 921084010 and 921084011; S8 T29 R1E TAX NO. 10 (N300') and (LESS N300'); 10 Beach Drive, Nordland, WA 98358. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND REQUIRED PERMITS/STUDIES: ZON2021-00049: Extend Yourself Limited Liability Company (LLC) proposes renovations and improvements to an existing SMALL-SCALE TOURIST AND RECREATION USE on Oak Bay and Kilisut Harbor. A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP) with a MAJOR VARIANCE is required to renovate this use formerly known as Marrowstone Inn. Situated on 8.3 acres, the site includes a main lodge, eleven cabins, a mobile home, sheds, barn, detached garage and a boat launch on shorelines and adjacent upland areas. Extend Yourself LLC proposes to renovate and improve the existing structures. The proposal includes: (1) the addition of a commercial kitchen to the main lodge and (2) the addition of a sauna to the property, (3) an upgrade to the septic system to meet current Environmental Public Health (EPH) standards for commercial kitchen operations, (4) reducing the impervious areas of informal paths, (5) upgrades to eleven cabins, (6) new gravel parking, (7) the replacement of a mobile home with a stick built structure, (8) reestablishment of a dense native landscape along the shoreline buffer, (9) protection and offsetting of wetland and shoreline impacts to improve their functions and values and (10) the addition of two yurts for "glamping" - a form of camping involving accommodation and facilities more luxurious than those associated with traditional camping. Operated as fishing cabins as of 1937 and later a beach resort, this small-scale use is considered legal nonconforming (“grandfathered”) pursuant to JCC 18.20.260 because it predates regulations requiring a minimum of 10 acres, as set forth in JCC 18.20.350 (9)(a), and the requirement for buildings not to exceed 6,000 SF, as outlined in JCC 18.20.350 (1)(q). SDP2021-00012: SHORELINE VARIANCE WITH SHORELINE SUBSTANTIAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT to remodel and renovate existing non-conforming cabins. The renovations include lateral, landward development within the shoreline jurisdiction. A small portion of waterward development includes supplying existing non-conforming cabins 1-4 with the required septic transport lines. Once installed, the applicant will plant a native grass seed mix to bring the area back to pre-disturbance conditions. There are two wetlands on-site, a category I marine wetland and a category IV wetland, with a 300-foot and 40-foot buffer, respectively. The applicants are requesting an administrative buffer reduction of 25% per JCC 18.22.730 (9), making the wetland buffer 225 feet, rather than 300 feet. The entryway to cabin 3 will be relocated to the eastern side of the cabin, a lateral expansion that is parallel to the shoreline of Oak Bay. The previous unpermitted expansion of a restroom in cabin 5, installed by previous owners without any permits, is proposed to remain and be permitted through this shoreline permit and with a built-without-permits (BWOP) building as a lateral expansion to the shoreline of Kilisut Harbor and is envisioned as restroom facilities for the guests utilizing this cabin. Associated road access improvements and portions of the septic lines are proposed waterward of cabins 1-4. The septic system has been designed to minimize land disturbance in association with the onsite contours and conditions. The proposal will bring the property into compliance with all local and state regulations. The proposal is supported by a Shoreline, Wetland, Fish and Wildlife Habitat, and FEMA Floodplain assessment prepared by Soundview Consultants (Assessment).

The hearing is rescheduled for May 26 from 1‐3 pm. Myself, Brent, and DCD apologize for the delay but we believe it will allow a seamless process to approval. The staff report, while substantially complete, has been determined by our director, Brent, to need legal/director review due to the complexity of the project. Additionally, we would like to take the opportunity with this extra timeline to introduce and discuss the proposed conditions with both our team and yours. This will benefit the project in many ways and allow responses to any community concerns to be thoroughly addressed. I will reach out by the end of next week to schedule a meeting. I anticipate the staff report will be available to you within the next two weeks for review.
