The renovations include lateral and 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 landward expansion that is parallel to the shoreline of Oak Bay. The previous owner’s unpermitted expansion of a restroom in cabin 5 is proposed to remain and be permitted through this shoreline permit as a landward expansion to the shoreline of Kilisut Harbor and is envisioned as restroom facilities for the guests utilizing this cabin. Additionally, the applicant proposes to move the staircase on the lodge from the south side of the lodge to the west side of the lodge. The new stair location falls outside of the 150 ft shoreline buffer, but is within the 225 ft reduced wetland A buffer. The relocation of this staircase is important for the required ADA accessible bathroom location and accessible entrance. 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).
