Agenda 1. Introductions 2. Proponent’s Project Overview 3. Environmental Public Health 4. Development Review, Community Development Department 5. Public Works Department Description of Proposal: OlyCAP is seeking to develop two separate sites on the 21.8-acre lot off Mill Road and Highway 20. The lower leveled section will be an open-air shelter with spaces for 40 RVs or wooden tents. This will initially include temporary communal bathroom facilities, along with electric hookups and WIFI for all residents. Stormwater will include a combination of bioswale and a drainage pipe to a naturally occurring ravine. The open-air shelter will ultimately include a shared bathroom, kitchen, and laundry facility with communal service and meeting spaces. The permanent structure is further out in development and plans have not been developed at this time. Separate septic systems have been planned for both sites and drainfields have been included in the attached site plans. On the upper leveled section near the northwest corner of the lot, OlyCAP is designing a 10,000 square foot shelter to replace the American Legion facility and improve the scale and quality of service provided. The shelter site will use the existing gravel driveway and site to include 8 parking spaces for staff. The facility will be wood-frame, site-built, and slab-on-grade construction. To provide natural light in central areas, the roof will be a dual-shed style with a clerestory in the split. It will include 13 single room occupancy units for permanent supportive residents with a shared kitchen, bathroom, and central living area. The shelter will also feature dormitory style beds for emergency use divided by gender, which will feature a combined 22 beds, along with private rooms and three family units. The development will be designed to serve 40 residents in total, and will have flexible space to accommodate weather emergencies. A kitchen will be shared between all residents, and split lavatory and shower units will be available for both permanent and emergency residents. Laundry will be for staff use only. Office and reception space will be available for staff along with a break room/rest area. Visitor parking will be included in the gravel by the site entrance and trail to ensure easy accessibility for services. / / Property Under Jefferson County Ownership / Jefferson County and Port Townsend City Zoning.

(1) Uses Allowed. Uses allowed subject to meeting the applicable performance standards (Chapter 18.20 JCC) and development standards (Chapter 18.30 JCC) and other applicable provisions of this code (including project permit approval, see Chapter 18.40 JCC, if a building or other development permit is required) are designated by a “Yes.” (2) Discretionary Uses. Discretionary uses are certain named and all unnamed uses which may be allowed subject to the applicable development and performance standards (Chapters 18.20 and 18.30 JCC) and an administrative review of potential impacts are designated by a “D” (for “discretionary”). On the basis of the administrative review, the administrator may classify the proposed “D” use as either an allowed use, a prohibited use, or a conditional use in the particular land use district affected. Discretionary, “D,” uses are subject to a Type II administrative review as specified in Chapter 18.40 JCC. Decisions classifying “D” uses made under this section may be appealed to the hearing examiner (see Chapter 18.40 JCC). The administrator may classify the discretionary use as an allowed “Yes” use in the particular district affected, only if the proposed development: (a) Complies with the applicable development standards of Chapter 18.30 JCC; (b) Complies with the performance and use-specific standards unique to the proposed use specified in Chapter 18.20 JCC; (c) Is appropriate in design, character, and appearance with the goals and policies for the land use designation and district in which the proposed use is located; (d) Is consistent with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the applicable regulations of the Shoreline Master Program if the application involves property located within the jurisdiction of the state Shoreline Management Act, but does not require a shoreline permit; (e) Will be served by adequate facilities including access, fire protection, water and sewer facilities (municipal, community, or on-site systems); (f) Does not include any use or activity that would result in the siting of an incompatible use adjacent to an airport or airfield (Chapter 36.70 RCW); (g) Shall not adversely impact the public health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the county; (h) Shares characteristics common with but not of significantly greater intensity, density or that generates more environmental impact than those uses allowed in the district in which it is to be located; and (i) Will not result in impacts on the human or natural environments determined by the administrator to require review as a conditional use. If the preceding conditions are not met to the satisfaction of the administrator, the administrator may either prohibit the use or require a conditional use permit. (3) Conditional Uses. All conditional uses are designated by a “C” and may be allowed subject to meeting the applicable development standards (Chapter 18.30 JCC), performance standards unique to the proposed use (Chapter 18.20 JCC), and the criteria for a conditional use permit (Article VIII of Chapter 18.40 JCC), as provided for in this code. All conditional uses shall be reviewed in accordance with a Type III quasi-judicial permit review process (requiring public notice, written comment and a public hearing) outlined in Chapter 18.40 JCC; except that conditional administrative uses (designated by a “C(a)”) may be allowed subject to a Type II administrative permit review process (requiring public notice and written comment, but not a public hearing); and conditional discretionary uses (designated by a “C(d)”) may be allowed subject to a Type II permit review process, unless the administrator determines that a Type III permit review process (requiring a public hearing) is warranted based on the project’s potential impacts, size or complexity, according to criteria in JCC 18.40.520. / Conditional Use Permit Steps—Beginning with “D” Discretionary Use Preapplication Conference A Discretionary Use Classification is conducted (begins as Type II process) Application submitted by applicant Review of application by planner to make sure all studies and components of project are included Information request sent by planner to applicant for any needed information Applicant provides any additional information Planner reviews new information to determine if all information has been provided.  Notice of Application – Notice in Leader, posted on site and mailed to adjacent property owners within 300 feet. 14-day public and agency comment period Staff reviews the comments, application materials and requests any additional information needed to meet the county codes.
