end, the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to be
severable; provided, that if any section, paragraph, term or
clause of this Agreement is found to conflict with applicable

City Council Meeting Summary
On August 1, 1991, the City Council conducted the regular Council
meeting. Deputy Mayor Marge Williams called the regular Council
meeting to order at 7:00 PM with Councilmembers Averill, Chapel,
Crofut, and Dysart present as well as Land Use Administrator
Stephanie Warren, and City Attorney Kaseguma. Deputy Clerk
Kasper monitored the tape of the meeting. Mayor Granato and
Councilmembers Bowen and Maron were absent.
The Harbourside Conditional Use Permit, Planned Unit Development
and Shoreline Substantial Development Permit were discussed.
Director of Planning and Community Development Warren stated
applicant John Hunt has applied for a Planned Unit Development,
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit, and Conditional Use
Permit for the proposed project which will contain 30 multi-
family units with 4 structures and replacement of the existing
marina, owners residence, and add space for yacht brokerage. She
stated that the project will be located on Parfitt Way. She
stated the original proposal was submitted as a single project in
1989, and was separated in 1990, but heard as one project in the
Planning Agency process. She stated staff and the Planning
Agency recommend approval of the project, however, the Hearing
Examiner recommended denial of the project based on WMC
18.40.070, which states the gross floor space devoted to
residential uses may be up to 66% in commercial PUD's. She
stated the project does not fulfill this requirement if the
marina is not included. She stated the Hearing Examiner also
denied the project based on its height of 35 feet which is
greater than the height designated for that zone. She stated the
Council must first act on the application for PUD and SSDP then
act on the CUP regarding the height issue following those
decisions. She stated Mr. Hunt has appealed the Hearing
Examiner's decision. She stated the primary issue between she
and the Hearing Examiner is whether or not to look at common
uses. She stated if the marina is not considered in the gross
floor space there is too much residential area. She stated the
Planning Agency agreed the marina should be included. Several
people spoke in favor of the project. The Council referred the
project to the Land Use Committee for development of
modifications to revise the Hearing Examiner's report to adopt
the Land Use Administrator's interpretation of the gross floor
space, allowance for the Conditional Use Permit for building
height and other details to be included by the committee for
report to the Council by August 15, 1991.
On August 15, 1991 the City Council granted unanimous approval to
disaffirm the Hearing Examiner's denial of the Conditional Use
Permit; reject and modify the Hearing Examaminer's recommendation
of denial of the Planned Unit Development applications with the
addition of conditions; and reject and modify the Hearing
Examiner's recommendation to deny the Shoreline Substantial
Development Permit.
Hearing Examiner Public Hearing Summary
On May 22, 1991, at 7:00 P.M., Winslow Hearing Examiner Robin
Thomas Baker conducted a public hearing to consider the
applications for Shoreline Substantial Development Permit,
Planned Unit Development permit and Conditional Use Permits filed
by applicants: Roger James Evans, Judith Ann Evans, John Hunt and
Denice Hunt, for a Planned Unit Development (hereinafter referred
to as PUD) in a commercial zone on approximately three acres of
land bordered by Wood Avenue and Parfitt Way in the City of
Winslow. The applicants wish to combine properties owned by each
of them into a joint development, which would include the Harbour
Marina, the Jolly Roger Pub, a marina service building, a yacht
sales office, a marina owner's residence and thirty condominium
units for private residents. The hearing was attended by
applicant, John Hunt, and by applicants, James Roger Evans
(hereafter referred to as Jim Evans) and his wife, Judith Evans
(hereafter referred to as Judy Evans). In addition to the
applicants there were thirteen members of the public attending as
interested parties. Renee Hauge monitored recording of the
hearing.
At the time of the first hearing, the Hearing Examiner announced
that the Assistant Planner from the City of Winslow, Leigh
Kennel, was unable to attend and testify at the May 22nd hearing,
due to a sudden onset of illness. The Hearing Examiner announced
to all parties present that the public hearing on this matter
would be continued until May 29, 1991, however, the testimony of
the applicants and any interested members of public present would
be taken on May 22, 1991. Each person would have an additional
E
opportunity to speak at the May 29th hearing, if they had further
comments.
Mr. John Hunt was the primary spokesperson for the application.
Applicants Evans also spoke in support of their applications.
Paul Cope and F.E. Gutt spoke in favor of the application. Lois
Andrus, representing the Bainbridge Island School District, made
comments concerning the impact of this development on the school
district. Paul Von Rosenstiel, a neighbor on Stetson Place,
commented generally in favor of the project, however, expressed
concerns about traffic and turn -around access at the end of
Stetson Place. Carol Issacson, a neighbor on Wood Avenue,
expressed concerns about driveway access from the Wood Avenue
Townhouses onto Wood Avenue and a probable view blockage of her
partial view of the Seattle skyline from her residence on Wood
Avenue.
On May 29, 1991, the public hearing was again held. Mr. Hunt
was present as was Mrs. Evans, representing the applications.
Also present were ten interested members of the public. Evelyn
Vokolek of 451 Wood Avenue S.W., a neighbor of the proposed
development, spoke in opposition to the project. She objected to
the traffic it would create and the visual obstruction it would
cause. Mrs. Vokolek expressed concern that the project did not
blend in with the neighborhood of single family residences
presently found along Wood Avenue. Carol Issacson once again
spoke in opposition to the project. Paul Von Rosenstiel once
again voiced his concerns about traffic access to the project.
Lois Andrus, representing Bainbridge Island School District,
offered exhibits to substantiate her previous statement. Leigh
Kennel, Assistant Planner from the City of Winslow Department of
Community Development, gave testimony about the project and the
recommendations of the Planning staff. Paul Cope spoke in favor
of the project. At approximately 9:30 P.M., the public hearing
was closed. All present and all attending were informed that
written documentation on this matter would be accepted until June
15, 1991.
The City Council rejected the Hearing Examiner's findings and
conclusions. The City Council now makes and enters the
following:
Findings of Fact
I
The real property which is subject to the application for
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit and Planned Unit
Development filed on October 27, 1989 is owned by Roger James
Evans and Judith Ann Evans and is identified under tax assessors'
number 8057-000-000-0005. A copy of the legal description of
said property is attached hereto as Exhibit "A". The property is
.78 of a acre of land surrounded on two sides by property owned
by John Hunt and Denice Hunt. The property faces the Eagle
Harbor shoreline on its south edge and is bordered on the east by
private property presently occupied by a single family residence.
The property is in a commercial zone with a master shoreline
designation of "Urban". Please see the enlarged site plan which
is Exhibit 1163" included in the file of the Hearing Examiner.
II
The remainder of the real property which is subject to the
application for Shoreline Substantial Development Permit and
Planned Unit Development permit filed by John Hunt is owned by
John and Denice Hunt and is located south of Parfitt Way and east
of Wood Avenue, along the Eagle Harbor waterfront. That property
is identified by tax assessor's numbers 272502-4-134-2005,
272502-4-135-2004 and 272502-4-137-2002. The property consists
of 2.3 acres, 2.15 acres of which are located above water. The
property is adjacent to the Evans property. This real property
has been purchased by John and Denice Hunt/Hunt Associates during
the course of this land use application process. The legal
description for the property now owned by John and Denice
Hunt/Hunt Associates is attached as Exhibit "B". The property is
in a commercial zone with a master shoreline designation of
"Urban".
III
To the west of the Hunt/Evans property is the Williamson Landing
six -unit condominium complex. This property includes a marina
with twenty-four moorage slips. An agreement has been reached
with the Williamson Landing Homeowners Association and John Hunt
for certain covenants, set backs and screening between the two
properties. That agreement is dated February 20, 1990 and has
been recorded by the Kitsap County Auditor's Office and is
included in this file as part of Exhibit 1112". Further to the
west across Wood Avenue and Stetson Place are single family
residences and a single family residential zone (10,000 square
feet). To the north across Parfitt Way is a medium density
multi -family residential zone containing single family
residences, the Captain's House Bed and Breakfast establishment,
and a sixty -unit senior citizen apartment complex. To the east,
of the subject property, the zone is commercial, being a part of
the Lower Madison Waterfront District. The adjacent lot,
however, has a single family residence. Further to the east is
the Winslow Wharf Marina, Saltwater Cafe, Pegasus Coffee Shop,
4
The Chandlery, office space and shops including the Waterfront
Professional Building.
IV
The Evans property presently contains the Jolly Roger Pub,
Harbour Marina, a Harbour Marina services building, the Marina
Yacht Services, a personal residence known as the "Grow House", a
stone shed and bicycle storage shed. It is proposed by the Evans
that the Jolly Roger Pub remain as previously permitted and that
the Harbour Marina remain as previously permitted. The marina
has 45 moorage slips which are rental slips. The "Grow House",
the building now housing Marina Yacht Services, and the bicycle
storage shed would be torn down and replaced by a Marina services
building, a new bicycle and tool shed, and an owner's residence
with a yacht sales office.
V
On the Hunt property, which totals 2.3 acres of uplands,
applicants propose to build thirty (30) townhouse and condominium
units. Each unit would be built with a below grade two car
garage. These thirty units would be located in four separate
buildings each having a height of thirty-five feet. (See
proposed site plan included as Exhibit 116311). The Hunt property
is presently covered by tall grasses, a garden, some evergreen
and deciduous trees. The property slopes toward the southeastern
corner with the highest grade at the northwest corner of the
site. A footpath is worn across the property from Parfitt Way to
the marina buildings. As a part of the Hunt condominium and
townhouse development, known as the Harbourside Project, Hunt and
Associates has proposed an extensive landscape plan which
includes a common garden area for use by condominium owners and
by marina residents. In addition Hunt has proposed planting
street trees along Wood Avenue and providing extensive parking
lot landscaping throughout the project. The landscaping plan has
been reviewed by the Land Use Administrator and has received her
approval. Exhibit 1168" describes the existing vegetation on the
property and the proposed changes to that landscape. Exhibit
1163" shows proposed landscaping.
VI
The applicant Evans is continuing to develop his Jolly Roger Pub
on the subject property under a separate Shoreline Substantial
Development Permit which was granted by Winslow City Council on
September 17, 1987. A portion of the property which was covered
by that 1987 permit has been sold to applicant Hunt. Applicant
Evans has retained easement rights for access and for parking on
the Hunt property consistent with his former permit. As a part
of the 1987 Shoreline Substantial Development Permit granted to
E
Evans for development of the Jolly Roger Pub, the Evans are
required to provide an improved pedestrian walkway from Parfitt
Way to the pub. This walkway is to be constructed separate from
the pub parking lot and the driveway access. In addition,
applicant Evans is required to provide and install at his cost,
or contribute the cost, for installation of a sidewalk along the
Parfitt Way edge of lot number 27. A further condition imposed
by that 1987 Shoreline Substantial Development Permit, is that
Evans deed to the City an easement for a trail for public use
along the waterfront edge of the Evans property for eventual tie
to the City Waterfront Trail system. The trail is to be not less
than five feet wide and traverse the entire width of the
property. The trail is to be developed and maintained by the
property owner. Also included in that permit was a requirement
that the applicant provide clear delineation of fire access
through the adjacent Harbour Marina Parking lot and enforce a
fire access zone so that emergency vehicles would not be impeded
in reaching the pub location. A covenant binding such use on the
Harbour Marina property and successors in interest is to run with
the land, and to be filed with the County Auditor.
VII
The adjacent Harbour Marina, also owned by applicants Evans and
Bar Harbour Association, was granted a Shoreline Substantial
Development Permit by the Winslow City Council on October 2,
1980. In addition to the commercial moorage, the permit required
parking and access for thirty cars, toilet, shower and laundry
facilities for boaters and improvement of an existing footpath on
the Evans' property. Connection to City sewer services by the
Marina was also required. The marina remains in operation. The
Marina owners have reached a tentative agreement with Hunt to
provide fifteen moorage slips for sale to Harbourside Condominium
purchasers and to give Harbourside Condominium and Townhouse
purchasers priority for rental of slips at the marina as they
become available in the future. The marina, in their agreement
with Hunt, will keep ten reserved parking spaces at the present
parking area on the Hunt property and will have joint use of the
Parfitt Way parking lot being developed jointly by Evans and Hunt
for use of the marina, the pub, and the condominium and townhouse
owners.
VIII
At the time the Harbour Marina Shoreline Substantial Development
Permit was issued October 1980, no PUD had been formulated for
the uplands portion of this property. Again in September 1987,
when the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit was issued for
the Jolly Roger Pub, Evans stated that he did not at that time
have any plans for future additions, expansions or further
activity connected to, or with the Jolly Roger Pub proposal and
0
he asked that the pub proposal stand in its own right. See
Exhibit 1166" answer to Question 7.
IX
The Evans propose to build on the property retained by them a
marina services building, an owners' residence containing a yacht
sales office and a small bicycle, storage, and tool shed. The
existing stone shed on the property will remain. The interior
space for the marina office and services building totals 906
square feet. The interior space for the marina owners' residence
and yacht sales office total 2,742 square feet with an adjoining
garage which contains 441 square feet. The existing storage shed
contains 234 square feet of interior space. The pub which
presently exists on the property contains 1,546 square feet of
interior space. All the buildings to be built as a part of the
Evans project are within 200 feet of the shoreline and are
located south of the north boundary of Parfitt Way. These
buildings are each to be built at 25 feet in height.
K4
The Evans have retained by easement under a development
agreement, the right to maintain and control 50 percent of the
common garden delineated in the proposal. This garden area will
be made available to live-aboards at the marina, as well as to
the marina owner. The present gravel parking lot which accesses
from Parfitt Way will be paved as part of a joint project between
Evans and Hunt. This project is proposed to contain 29 parking
spaces for the joint use of the Marina and pub parking. A
sidewalk will be built along the west edge of Parfitt Way parking
giving sidewalk access to the public from Parfitt Way to the pub
and marina with connection to the Waterfront trail. The project
applicants have agreed to deed this sidewalk easement as a public
trail access to the City of Winslow for permanent public access
to the Waterfront trail which has previously been dedicated and
was required to be deeded to the City as a condition of the pub
Shoreline Substantial Development Permit. This sidewalk from
Parfitt Way to the waterfront will be built and solely financed
by the applicants.
XI
There is a recorded development agreement between the Applicants
Roger James Evans and Judith Ann Evans, husband and wife for
themselves and in behalf of Bar Harbour Associates, a Washington
Limited Partnership, and John Hunt and Denice Hunt, husband and
wife, dated December 1, 1989. This agreement is included as
Exhibit 1128"; it is an agreement for ownership and maintenance of
the common areas, the garden areas and easement access included
IN
in the Evans/Hunt project. The agreement does not include a
provision for payment of taxes on the common area property.
The following schedule indicates tax lot number and owners of
record:
TAX LOT NUMBERS: 272502-4-134-2005 (1.04 ac) John & Denice
Hunt
& OWNER OF RECORD: 272502-4-135-2004 ( .63 ac) John & Denice

272502-4-137-2002 ( .51 ac) John & Denice
Hunt
272502-4-073-2008 ( .26 ac) RJ & JA Evans
Taxes and maintenance of common areas in the residential portion
of the project will be included in the condominium association
regulations.
XII
The interior floor space of the condominiums and townhouse units
included in the Harbourside Condominium Development total 52,882
square feet of interior space for the residential part of the
units and add 19,348 square feet in the garage area. The retail
and commercial services of this joint PUD project are located
entirely on the Evans portion of the project. The Marina
Condominiums building is within 200 feet of the shoreline and is
south of the north boundary of Parfitt Way.
XIII
A drainage plan has been proposed by the applicants and is
included here marked Exhibit "57". The drainage plan shows the
applicants propose to place collection basins in the parking
areas and to tie in the downspouts for the condominiums to the
storm drain thereby channeling all run off through an oil
separator located near the proposed owners' residence and
existing pub. This runoff will be discharged into Eagle Harbor
through an existing eight inch outlet pipe in the bulkhead
located to the east of the existing pub. This drainage plan has
been reviewed by Kato and Warren, Inc., engineers retained by the
City of Winslow. Kato and Warren, Inc. have recommended the
following additions to the drainage proposal which the applicant
has agreed to provide:
0
7. Drainage: Vehicular access to drainage control structures and
oil/water separator is required. The existing eight inch diameter
outlet pipe in the bulkhead will be used to collect and distribute
most of the site's drainage. The pipe must be brought up to
standards that will be specified by the City Engineer before the
issuance of any building permits. Erosion control measures and a
complete drainage plan, including temporary erosion control
measures are required prior to the issuance of permits. It is
recommended that a grass swale be incorporated to provide bio-
filtration for the site's runoff.
XIV
The proposed project would be connected to the City of Winslow
sewer system and would connect through an existing eight inch
line to the City of Winslow lift station. Kato and Warren, Inc.
as engineer for the City of Winslow, has reviewed the sewer
system plan and have determined that:
6. Sewer: Sewer facilities such as plant capacity and lift station
capacity have been determined to be adequate to serve this project. If
the Public Works Department finds that there is a requirement to upgrade
or clean existing pipes and in -ground facilities, the proponent will
provide cleanouts to the sanitary sewer connections. If required, the
proponent will provide manhole for sewer service. These issues will be
resolved prior to the issuance of building permits.
XV
This project would be connecting to the City of Winslow water
system. The water capacity service to this property is currently
inadequate, therefore, the applicants have an oral agreement with
adjoining owners to replace the existing four inch service with
an eight inch main which would extend back to the Winslow Arms
Apartments and would continue down the center line of Parfitt
Avenue connecting to an eight inch line to Winslow Way along Wood
Avenue. The project would be built with an eight inch water line
throughout to provide adequate water flow and fire flow
protection. This eight inch line would be installed by the
parties to that agreement. A written agreement is being drafted
to provide for latecomer hook-ups. The installation of this
eight inch line has been required by the City Engineer to
maintain adequate water pressure and available fire flow to the
property owners in this area. See Exhibit "C" attached. The
applicant has agreed to installation of the eight inch line prior
to the issuance of building permits.
XVI
Exhibit 1157" shows applicants proposed location of fire hydrants
for this project and fire truck access to the buildings.
9
Applicant Hunt stated at the hearing that all condominium and
townhouse units will be constructed with sprinkler systems for
fire protection. These residential buildings will include 5000
square feet of floor area. The fire district has reviewed the
applicants site plans and has indicated the fire hydrant
placement on the copy of the site plan attached to the letter
from the fire district dated June 11, 1991 and included with
these findings as Exhibit "D". The fire district has outlined in
the June 11, 1991 letter, requirements for fire protection and
fire flow which must be complied with by the applicants. The
applicant agrees to the requirements as noted in Exhibit "D".
XVII
The Hunt property is bordered on the north by Parfitt Way and by
Wood Avenue on the west. Both Parfitt Way and Wood Avenue have a
40 foot wide dedicated right -of -away designated on the
Comprehensive Street Plan.
XVIII
An initial concern of neighbors from the adjoining properties was
traffic congestion and on -street parking which might impede the
flow of traffic on Parfitt Way and Wood Avenue. An examination
of the proposal by Evans and Hunt shows that they have provided
on site parking in sufficient number to comply with parking
requirements of WMC 18.88 and 18.89. There should be no on -
street parking along Wood or Parfitt as a result the project.
Concern was expressed at the hearing about turn -around access on
Wood Avenue. It appears that adequate turn -around access would
be available off Wood Avenue in either parking lot on the site.
Question 14(f) of the environmental checklist filed by the
applicants addressed the question of vehicular volume expected to
be generated by this development. The applicant stated that the
residential component of the site development would generate
approximately 232 vehicle trips per day, with the peak hour
occurring between 4:30 and 5:30 P.M. The applicant states there
is no information available on the pub traffic or on the small
commercial traffic expected from the marina services. The
existing site traffic is generated by the occupants and renters
of the 45 boat slips located at the Harbour Marina. The City of
Winslow did not conduct an independent traffic study on Wood
Avenue and Parfitt Way. The City stated in their SEPA review
worksheet that the impact would be to increase congestion at the
corner of Madison and Parfitt, an already congested area. A
increase of traffic would be expected on Wood Avenue. The
applicant has agreed to mitigation that would include a loading
area to facilitate carpool/vanpool or paratransit buses at the
site, and to coordinate paratransit programs with Kitsap County
Transit.
10
XIX
Included as a part of proposed development are thirty (30)
condominium units. The majority of those condominiums are three
bedroom units with some two bedroom units being included in the
Parfitt East and West condominiums. Copies of the proposed floor
plans of those units are included in exhibit 1173". Applicant
Hunt stated at the public hearing that he is targeting buyers in
the upper income bracket and expects his least expensive unit to
be marketed at a price in excess of $225,000.00. He anticipates
the units will be sold to couples without children or couples
with a maximum of one child. His facilities, he states, have
been designed with an adult population in mind. The recreation
proposed for the residents includes access to the waterfront,
potential rental or use of the marina, gardening in the open
space common area. There are city parks within a half mile
radius of this property. The Department of Community Development
stated the usage impact of this project on parks will be minimal.
Only the commercial portion requires public open space and
shoreline access. The access is provided at the site with the
trail to the waterfront and the trail along the waterfront. The
residential part requires that the residents have access to
common open space. The gardens satisfy this requirement. There
is no requirement for public access in the residential part of
the project. The Land Use office has determined the amount of
open space to be adequate. In addition, the proposal provides
for deeding to the City as public access a walkway from Parfitt
Way to the waterfront which was required to be constructed as a
condition of the pub permit.
XX
The proposed project will build thirty residential units in four
separate buildings each building having a proposed height of
thirty-five feet. One building will be located next to the
Williamson Landing Condominiums, facing east. The townhouse
building will extend from the Wood Avenue parking lot to the
northwest corner of the property. Two other buildings will
extend along the northern property line, facing south, to the
Parfitt parking lot. The site slopes to the water. The existing
views of Eagle Harbor from both Wood Avenue and Parfitt Way are
restricted due to the change in grade and to existing structures,
fences, and trees. It is likely that one single family residence
on Wood Avenue will have their view obstructed by the project.
However, this is not due to the additional height. It is likely
that view blockage from that house would occur if only a single
family house was constructed at the proposed site.
11
XXI
The portion of the project financed by each applicant is expected
to exceed $10,000.00.
XXII
Notice was published in the Bainbridge Review on May 8, 1991 and
May 15, 1991 giving public notice of the hearings to be held May
22, 1991. A copy of that legal notice as published is included
as exhibit 1176C" Notice of public hearing was visibly posted on
the subject property and was continually posted there until after
the hearing. An affidavit of that posting can be found in this
file, marked Exhibit 1180" At the public hearing May 22, 1991, the
Hearing Examiner announced continuation of the hearing until May
29, 1991 to take additional testimony.
XXIII
These applications were reviewed by the Winslow Planning Agency
at its April 11, 1991 meeting. The Planning Agency voted
unanimously to recommend approval to Hearing Examiner of the
Harbourside project with the recommendations presented to the
Planning Agency by the Land Use Office, dated April 5, 1991, and
with the drawings presented at the public hearing March 28, 1991.
The Planning Agency included some revisions to those
recommendations which are set forth in the minutes of the
Planning Agency meeting included here and marked as Exhibit 1152".
XXIV
A SEPA Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance was issued with
conditions by the City of Winslow Department of Community
Development for the Harbourside Condominiums and a Determination
of Nonsignificance was issued for the harbourside Marina portion
of the project. Both determinations were issued March 11, 1991.
Subsequent to the posting of SEPA Determination, a SEPA appeal
letter was received from the Bainbridge Island School District
appealing the school impact portion of the DNS issued for
Harbourside Condominiums. That appeal process was on-going at
the time of public hearing. Subsequent to the hearing the City
Council denied the school district SEPA appeal.
The proposed bicycle and tool shed, yacht sales office and marina
services buildings which are to be built on the Evans' property
are consistent with the commercial zone designation of the
underlying property and with the commercial nature of the
existing use on the property. The pub should open in late summer
1991. The proposed residential use of the Hunt upland's property
is consistent with the residential use located across Wood Avenue
12
and with the multi -family residential use located to the north of
Parfitt Way. The residential use is proposed to be built in a
commercial zone as part of a Planned Unit Development. There are
several multi -family senior housing complexes across Parfitt to
the north and east of this project with which this multi -family
residential project would be consistent. To the south of this
project is located Williamson Landing, a six unit condominium,
approximately 35 feet in height, built along Eagle Harbor
shoreline. The Williamson Landing Property Owners Association
has filed a letter in support of this project. In addition, a
neighbor, Paul Von Rosenstiel attended both hearings. Von
Rosenstiel stated support for the residential nature of the Hunt
project; he thought the commercial zone designation of this
property was an incorrect zoning choice. The hearings were
attended by several proposed purchasers of the Harbourside
Condominium units. These potential buyers also spoke in favor of
the residential nature of this planned unit development at this
location.
XXVI
This project will generate a minimum of four new students to the
Bainbridge Island School District. The school district is
already at capacity at the elementary level and will probably be
at capacity at the middle school level by the time this project
is constructed. The applicants have agreed to pay an impact fee
to the Bainbridge Island School District as a condition for
approval of this project. That fee will be determined by a
formula set forth in a Winslow City Ordinance on school impact
fees. When said ordinance becomes law, applicant has agreed to
comply with the ordinance.
XXVII
The Winslow Hearing Examiner, J. Robin Hunt filed an Order of
Disqualification which is on file as Exhibit 1158". The Hearing
Examiner ProTem, therefore, held the public hearings necessary in
these permit applications.
Conclusions of Law
Legal notice of the public hearing was given.
13
II
Winslow Municipal Code 16.12.400 requires a Shoreline Substantial
Development Permit for this project because the project is
located on the waterfront and will cost more than $1,000.00.
Applicant Hunt proposes to build four multi -family residential
buildings on the property, each of which is proposed to be built
to a height of 35 feet. one of these buildings is within 200 feet
of the shoreline. It is this departure alone that necessitates a
Conditional Use permit. See WMC 18.72.030. Commercial services
parts of the project, the yacht sales office, marina owners
residence, and the marina office are considered to be water
related, which means no conditional use permit is required. The
residential part, the Hunt townhouses and condominiums are
allowed in the urban shoreline area. The Evans' residence even
if not considered as water related is exempt. Therefore this
project is consistent with the policies and regulations of the
shoreline urban designation. Both applicants have also applied
for a planned unit development permit as required by WMC
18.72.020 (J). This project is located in the Lower Madison
Waterfront District/Commercial zone.
III
The applicants, Evans and Hunt, were required to demonstrate at
the hearing for the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit that
their project met the following criteria under WMC 16.12.860 (K):
1. The development is consistent with the
goals and policies of the Shoreline
Management Master Program;
2. The development is permitted by the
general regulations set forth by the use or
activity;
3. The use or activity is permitted by the
general regulations set forth by the specific
environment in which it is to be located;
4. The development project will not cause a
use or activity accessory to the major use or
activity which is not consistent with the
goals, policies and regulations in the
Shoreline Management Master Program.
IV
A Shoreline Master Program goal set forth in WMC 16.12.530 states
in part:
It is the goal of this program to allow...
commercial and other developments which are
dependent on the related shoreline locations.
Uses which are not shoreline but related but
which provide an opportunity for people to
14
use and enjoy the shoreline should be
encouraged.
Another goal is set forth in WMC 16.12.540:
It is the goal of this program to insure safe
and convenient access for the public to
publicly owned shorelines and insure that
intrusions created by access will not
endanger life, property or environment.
Another Shoreline Master Program goal is stated in WMC 16.12.560:
It is the goal of this program to provide
convenient and diverse public recreation
opportunities along the shorelines and to
encourage complimentary privately owned
recreational opportunities.
►i7
This project is located in the Lower Madison Waterfront District/
Commercial zone and has been designated an "Urban environment".
WMC 16.12.570 defines urban environment as:
...an area of intense modification of the
natural systems caused by human activity with
residential, commercial and industrial uses.
The purpose of placing an area in an urban
environment is to ensure the utilization of
the area to be a multiplicity of human uses.
B. The use policies are: 1. Any shoreline
use....; 2. Public access should be
encouraged. Where practical, various access
points ought to be linked to nonmotorized
transportation routes, such as bicycle and
hiking paths. 3. PUDs should be encouraged
within the shoreline area...."
This proposal is viewed as partially commercial and partially
residential. The commercial services parts, the marina, and the
yacht sales office, marina owners residences are considered to be
water related. The residential part, the Hunt townhouses and
condominiums are allowed in the urban shoreline area. This
project is a PUD which is encouraged within shoreline zones.
Commercial uses are either shoreline dependent (the marina), or
shoreline related (commercial uses). Residential uses are
allowed in the urban environment but are not required to be water
related, and the project provides for a connecting link in the
existing City of Winslow waterfront trail. Therefore the
proposal is consistent with WMC 16.12.570.
15
VI
WMC 16.12.670 (D) states:
"Commercial development is allowed in the
urban environment only".
"It should be compatible in size and scale to the area
in which located".
"Parking facilities should be placed away from the
waters edge".
and
"Developments should be designed in such a way as to
minimize disruptions of scenic views".
The proposal conforms to WMC 16.12.670 in the following ways:
It provides water related commercial development and
therefore public uses along the shoreline.
The buildings provide a gradual transition in scale
between the single family houses on Wood Avenue, and
the larger multi -family developments at Williamson's
Landing and other nearby multi -family structures.
Under the Evans and Hunt proposal the parking
facilities for this commercial project will be placed
inland and away from the immediate water's edge and
beaches, in compliance with WMC 16.12.670 (B)2.
The height proposed for the commercial buildings on the
Evans property and with buildings in the immediate vicinity.
Those buildings will not substantially change the scenic
view obstruction from the present condition caused by
buildings on the site. Only one of the Hunt buildings needs
a height departure. Public input at the council meeting on
August 1, 1991 agrees with the Land Use office that the
views in the area are not significant now.
"*o
WMC 16.12.740(D)4 states:
"... residential development shall be
permitted in the urban environment subject to
the general regulations and Title 18 of this
code."
The Zoning Referenced in WMC 18.
a. Planned Unit Development Title 18.40
16
1. The purpose of a PUD is to encourage development
that would be better than that resulting from the
traditional lot -by -lot development, by applying
principles of excellent design, to permit the
flexibility of design that will allow creative
approaches to development; to encourage the
preservation of open space, natural vegetation and
natural ecological systems.
2. The maintenance of commonly owned areas or areas
open for the use of all residences shall by identified
by the applicant. The applicant shall submit to the
planning agency and city attorney the covenants, deeds,
maintenance agreements, etc., and other instruments
guaranteeing the maintenance of common areas and the
payment of taxes thereon for the reasonable life of the
buildings.
b. Lower Madison Waterfront Title 18.72
Parking requirements of Chapter 18.89 shall apply.
c. The following table is a composite of the specific
requirements in WMC Title 18.40 and 18.72.
PUD REQUIREMENTS LOWER MADISON WATERFRONT
REQUIREMENTS
1. Any use permitted in the Lower 1. Permitted uses include PUDs,
Waterfront zone is permitted. residences, services, retail
sales, and others.
2. The density of the number of
dwelling units permitted in a
PUD shall be the underlying zone.
3. No minimum lot size is required.
4. Lot coverage in residential
development is 25 percent,
there is no maximum
coverage in commercial development.
the maximum covered in commercial
zones shall not exceed 1.15 percent
of density in the underlying zone.
5. There is no minimum yard required,
except for properties adjacent to
a residential zone.
17
2. Density is not addressed in
this zone.
3. Lot size is not addressed.
4. The maximum lot coverage
(area covered by buildings)
shall not exceed 35 percent.
5. Front, rear, and side yards
shall not total less than
twenty feet. Side yards
shall be at least five feet,
except for properties
adjacent to a residential
zone.
The proposal meets all the requirements of WMC 18.40 (PUD) in that it
provides a sensitively designed development which is sympathetic to
commercial uses on the water and to adjacent residential uses in the
Lower Madison District, and which preserves open space, natural
vegetation systems and natural ecological systems. The applicant has
agreed to measures to protect the shoreline. A design approved by the
City Engineer to allow for the protection of the existing bulkhead
during and after construction of the building that will replace the
current marina owner's residence is required.
The applicant has also agreed that if any trees are removed from the
bulkhead areas, replanting will be completed before issuance of final
certificate of occupancy permits. A certified arborist will be
consulted to determined the type and size of the trees to be planted.
VIII
The proposed planned unit development meets the requirements of WMC
18.100.060 (B), because the height of the townhouse and condominium
buildings and their location on the site do not cause substantial view
blockage from properties neighboring on the west and north. Further,
adequate provision has been made under this project proposal to
mitigate increased traffic congestion caused by the addition of thirty
residential units to this property. This project will impact the
Bainbridge Island School District by adding new students to schools
already at capacity. As a part of the SEPA process the applicants have
agreed to mitigate that impact by compliance with the school impact fee
ordinance when passed by the Winslow City Council. That fee building
or at a time set forth in the school impact ordinance whichever is
later.
This proposed planned unit development does conform to applicable
provisions of WMC 18.88, WMC 18.89 and WMC 18.90. Adequate on-site
parking is provided for both the commercial services proposed and the
private residences. The applicants landscaping plan has been approved
by the Director of Planning and Community Development.
WMC 18.100.050 (F) 1. requires the applicant to show that the proposed
planned unit development makes adequate provision for construction and
maintenance of public open space, recreational areas and public
facilities.
This planned unit development has private open space set aside for
gardening and a private patio area for entertaining, but has no
provision for public open space and none is require for the residential
uses. Public access for the commercial portion is provided on a
sidewalk proposed to be constructed, from Parfitt Way along the Parfitt
parking lot to the pub and marina. In addition, as part of the
previous pub permit, Mr. Evans will deed waterfront trail access along
the Eagle Harbor shoreline of his property to the City of Winslow.
18
IX
WMC 18.40.070 requires the percentage of multi -family residential use
in a commercial PUD is to be no greater than sixty-six percent of he
gross floor area. The Land Use office has interpreted this provision
as allowing total site related facilities in the calculation. In view
of the fact that there is a commercial marina facility which is an
existing feature of the overall site, the square footage of the
commercial marina facility offsets the proposed residential space.
Therefore, the project is in conformance with WMC 18.40.070.
KI
The project consists of Shoreline Substantial Development Permit
application, Planned Unit Development application, and Conditional Use
Permit application. The Hearing Examiner recommended denial of the
project. The Planning Agency and the Land Use Office recommended
approval of the project, provided the applicant agrees to certain
conditions.
DECISION:
The City Council grants unanimous approval to disaffirm the Hearing
Examiner's denial of the CUP; reject and modify the Hearing
Examaminer's recommendation of denial of the PUD applications with the
addition of conditions; and reject and modify the Hearing Examiner's
recommendation to deny the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit.
