REPORT AND DECISION
Project: PVT Estates Subdivision
File number: SUB 18273
Applicant: PVT Estates, LLC
10209 Bridgeport Way SW, Suite C-1
Lakewood, WA. 98499
Request: Preliminary long lot subdivision approval to create 17 single-family lots and
open space tracts on approximately 7.11 acres in accordance with the City's open
space flexible lot design subdivision provisions.
Location: The project site is located north of Wing Point Way NE, between Ferncliff
Avenue and Azalea Avenue, at 1120 Wing Point Way.
Environmental
Review: The project is subject to State Enviromiiental Policy Act (SEPA) review as
provided in Washington Administrative Code (WAC 197-11-800). A Mitigated
Determination of Non -Significance was issued on May 2, 2014. The 14 -day appeal
period ended on May 16, 2014.
FINDINGS OF FACT
A. Site Characteristics
I.. Tax Assessor Information:
A. Tax Lot Numbers: 262502-1-023-2006
B. Owners of Record: PVT Estates
C. Lot Size: *7.11 acres or 309,906 square feet
D. Land Use: Residential
*Lot size according to the Assessor is 6.78 acres. The applicant submitted a survey that showed
the current lot size at 7.2 acres or 313,983 square feet. The applicant intends to apply for and
record a boundary line adjustment as a separate application before applying for final subdivision
REPORT AND DECISION - I
approval. The difference between the existing lot size and the proposed lot size is approximately
4,000 square feet. The calculations in this report are based on the adjusted lot size. The
difference in square footage between pre- and post -boundary line adjustment does not alter the
analysis (Exhibit 25).
2, Terrain: The site is located along a north -south trending ridge line with a slight slope down to
the west. A steeper slope lies to the east down to a stream that runs through the eastern portion
of the site. The stream has steep slopes on either side with 10% to 40% grades and elevation
changes from 20 to 30 feet.
3. Soils: Soil mapping indicates that the site has several different soils, including Dystric
Xeronthents, Harstine gravelly sandy loam, Kapowsin gravelly loam (Soil Survey of Kitsap
County Area, Washington; U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, 1977).
4. Existing Site Development: The far western portion of the site has an access driveway that
connects to Wing Point Way and a single family home (built 1939) that has received a permit
for demolition, after review from the City's Historic Preservation Commission (HPC).
5. Proposed Access: The site will continue to be accessed from Wing Point Way NE. A new street
will be created through the site to serve the newly created lots.
6. Public Services and Utilities: The property is serviced by City of Bainbridge Island Water and
Sewer.
7. Zoning/Comprehensive Plan Designation: The subject property is zoned as R-2.9, 15,000 square
feet per unit. The Comprehensive Plan Designation is Semi -Urban Residential, 2.9-3.5 units per
acre.
8. Surrounding Zoning/Comprehensive Plan Designation:
A. North: R-2.9, SUR 2.9-3.5 units per acre
B. South: R-4.3, SFR 4.3-6 units per acre
C. East: R-2.9, SUR 2.9 — 3.5 units per acre
D. West: R-2.9, SUR 2.9 — 3.5 units per acre
9, Surrounding Uses:
A. North: Wing Point Golf Course.
B. South: Single-family residences.
C. East: Cleared land, commonly known as Wing Point Patio Homes, approved for an
eleven, detached -unit, multi -family project on 3.92 acres.
D. West: Single-family residences in subdivisions known as Tiffany Meadows and Wing
Point Estates.
B. Procedural History
10. A pre -application conference was held October 25, 2012. The preliminary subdivision application
was deemed complete May 8, 2013, and a Notice of Application was issued May 17, 2013. A public
participation meeting was held on July 11, 2013. Revisions to the site plan and associated documents
were submitted on August 20, 2013, December 11, 2013, and April 15, 2014. The public hearing on the
plat application was held on May 22, 2014, with the record left open to receive an agreement as to revised
plat conditions between the applicant and an adjacent property owner, Malcolm Mead, plus additional staff
comments. Final comments were received on May 27, 2014.
11. In addition to Mr. Mead, public comments were received from other neighbors regarding the
proposed development. Commenters expressed concerns about preservation of existing trees on the
REPORT AND DECISION - 2
property, stormwater management, plat density, protection of critical areas, utility infrastructure, buffer
requirements, traffic, access location and visibility, and construction impacts.
12. Regarding agency review, The Fire Marshal (Exhibits 12 & 18) provided a comment and
requested that an approved fire hydrant be located on Wing Point Way near the entrance to the
subdivision and that it be spaced in accordance with BIMC 13.10.060. An approved fire apparatus
turnaround shall be provided (Condition 42). The Kitsap County Health District (Exhibits 8 & 19)
provided a short plat approval sheet for the water and sewer. The Health District also commented that
the existing well needs to be decommissioned prior to final plat approval, The City's Public Works
Operations and Maintenance (0 & M) issued a Binding Commitment Limited Reservation for Sewer
and Water on March 29, 2013, and a comment letter on February 12, 2014. The February 12, 2014
comment letter imposed three requirements: 1) Because this property is in the water system low zone
with the pressure -reducing valve at the intersection of Ferncliff and Wing Point Way set at 35 psi, the
applicant will be required to confirm that it can meet 32 psi at the water meter and fire flow at 20 psi
and 1,000 gpm. 2) The sewer from the project shall be connected on Wing Point Way using a saddle
manhole. Each side sewer line shall include a cleanout at the edge of the right of way and additional
cleanouts within five feet of each house. 3) The storm drainage pipe on Wing Point Way will need to be
inspected and reviewed to determine that it has adequate capacity to receive stormwater discharged
from this project.
C. Regulatory Compliance
Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies
13. On pages 12 through 15 the Department of Planning and Community Development staff report
provides a thorough and complete discussion of the City Comprehensive Plan policies bearing upon
review of the PVT Estates application. These include policies for open space, trails and residential
development. The staffreport Comprehensive Plan discussion is adopted herein by reference.
Land Use Corte Requirements
14. C'r'itical tyas
a. BIMC 16.20.130.C. 2: Development Standards:
The site contains a non -fish bearing perennial (Np) stream in a ravine. Streams within a
ravine are required maintain either the buffer width assigned to the stream type (50 feet) or
a buffer width which extends 25 feet beyond the top of the ravine, whichever is greater.
The City received a topographic survey on December 18, 2012, that identified both the top
of the ravine slope and stream channel width. The habitat buffer edge is depicted as lying
25 feet from the top of the ravine. An additional 25 feet of buffer will: be provided for
protection of the steep slopes, resulting in a total buffer width of 50 feet from the top of the
ravine.
b. BIMC 16.20.130.C, 8: Land Divisions and Land Use Permits;
L The open area of lakes, streams and tidal lands shall not be permitted for use in
REPORT AND DECISION - 3
calculating minimum lot area. The stream and its buffer are excluded from lot area
calculations and will be placed in a separate open space tract.
2. Land division approvals shall be conditioned so that all required buffers are designated
as an easement or covenant encumbering the buffer Such easement or covenant shall be
recorded together with the land division and represented on the final plat, short plat or
binding site Arlan. The final plat will include a recorded easement or covenant for the
stream and its buffer (Condition 23).
3. In order to avoid the creation of a nonconforming lots, each new lot shall contain at
least one building site that meets the requirements of this chapter, including buffer
requirements for habitat conservation areas. Each lot must have access and a sewage
disposal system location that are suitable for development which do not adversely
impact fish and wildlife conservation area. Each lot will be serviced by City sewer and
water and contain a building site outside the stream and its buffer,
4. After preliminary approval and prior to final land division approval, the director may
require that the common boundary between a required buffer and the adjacent lands be
identified using permanent signs. In lieu of signs, alternative methods of buffer
identification may be approved when such methods are determined by the director to
provide adequate protection to the aquatic buffer, As part of the plat utility permit, the
applicant will provide and maintain approved signage along the stream and its buffer
(Condition 23).
c.,. BIMC 16.20.130.C.10, Trails and Trail Related Facilities, allows construction of public and
private trails and trail -related facilities, such as benches, interpretive centers and viewing
platforms, in fish and wildlife conservation areas or their buffers. The Open Space
Management Plan includes trails and trail -related facilities as permitted uses and applicable
development standards will be incorporated into the final plan (Condition 21).
d. BIMC 16.20.150.E, Development Standards, requires a buffer equal to the height of the
slope or 50 feet, whichever is greater, to be established from the edge of any landslide
hazard area. The site contains a landslide hazard area with some slopes greater than 40% in
inclination but not greater than 50 feet in height. The 50 -foot slope buffer requirement
therefore applies. No development is proposed within steep slope buffers except trails, as
permitted by the Open Space Management Plan and BIMC 16.20.150.F.
15. Zrrrity'ts�r.��,trti�,r�l
a. Consistent with BIMC 18.09.020, R-2.9 Permitted Use Table, the 'proposed lots will
accommodate single-family dwelling units, a permitted use in the R-2.9 zone,
b. Although the flex lot design requirement is imposed by the subdivision regulations, the
flex lot dimensional standards themselves appear within the zoning code at 18.12.020-1. For a
property served by a public sewer system, 5,000 square feet is the applicable minimum lot area.
The maximum number of lots permitted is calculated by dividing the total lot area of the
REPORT AND DECISION - 4
property by the minimum lot area for standard lots in the zone district. Here the base density is
one unit per 15,000 square feet; within a gross area of 309,906 square feet (taking into account a
future boundary line adjustment) this generates a base density of 20 units. All lots will need to
be a minimum of 50 feet wide and are subject to a plat maximum building limitation coverage
of 25%. On a property of 309,906 square feet, total lot coverage may not exceed 77,476 square
feet, with 63,775 square feet proposed here.
C. BIMC 18.15.010 governs landscaping, screening, and the tree protection and retention
requirements. Perimeter landscaping is generally required for multi -family development, non-
residential uses, and in the Winslow Town Center Mixed Use and the High School Road
Districts. But staff has concluded that perimeter landscaping requirements do not apply to an
open space flex lot single-family subdivision in the R-2.9 zoning district that does not also abut
a park or a conservation land buffer. In a subdivision where mature trees and shrubs of a
forested nature are located adjacent to a collector (Wing Point Way), however, Table 18.15.010-
5 mandates that a 50 -foot vegetated roadside buffer shall be retained. The applicant had
originally proposed to locate stormwater facilities in this buffer but has revised its plans to
provide the full 50 -foot buffer along Wing Point Way, the maintenance of which will be
included in the Open Space Management Plan. Finally, because this is a residential subdivision,
the tree unit retention requirements BIMC 18.15.010.G do not apply.
16. Residents of the Tiffany Meadows plat adjacent to the site argued strongly for the imposition of
a 10 to 15 foot natural vegetation buffer along the plat's western boundary to separate and screen their
somewhat larger lots. The wooded site features large evergreens in this area that they would like to see
retained. In addition, Dr. OlafRibiero, a tree specialist, testified as to the ecological benefits of tree
retention generally. While the City's ordinance provisions governing perimeter buffers are not exactly a
model of clarity and consistency, staffs interpretation appears to be the correct one. The subdivision
regulations authorize two modes of lot clustering, a mandatory "flex lot" version utilized for open
space preservation exclusively and a broader optional one that looks to designing for "the efficient use
of land by reducing disturbed areas, impervious surfaces, utility extensions and roadways, while
providing for the protection of valued open space features" (BIMC 17.28.020(5)). While there is
almost no intelligible real-world distinction between the two types of clustering, the regulatory
differences are fairly dramatic. Subdivisions that fall within the mandatory open space category are
exempt from meeting any perimeter buffer requirements, while the optional version is subject to the 25
foot filtered screen mandate of BIMC 18.15.010.1)(3)(a). Thus in the present instance where there has
been no SEPA appeal, no code authority remains available to impose a perimeter landscaping
requirement along this open space flex lot plat's western boundary.
17. Wing Point Way is a narrow road with no sidewalks and minimal shoulders that experiences
gradient variations. Concern was expressed by area residents about the effects of more traffic on Wing
Point Way resulting from the addition of the proposed 17 single-family residences. The applicant
submitted a Level One Traffic Impact Analysis (Exhibit 16) for the project that has been reviewed by
an outside third party. The project will increase traffic, but it will not drop Wing Point Way below an
acceptable level of service.
REPORT AND DECISION - 5
18. The issues of importance along Wing Point Way are related to safety more than to traffic
volumes. East of the proposed plat entry road the collector descends toward and then crosses the ravine
that is partially contained in the plat's open space tract, The TIA measured the entering sight distances
from the plat entry road both east and west along Wing Point Way and concluded that the 280 feet
required by the AASHTO guidelines for a 25 mph design speed would be met for both directions.
While the grade to the east is in the 15% range, the TIA diagram shows the ground as having no humps
that would block driver vision.
19. The need for pedestrian improvements along Wing Point Way has long been acknowledged by
the City's non -motorized transportation planning process, and Capital Project 161 designed to address
this need is working its way slowly but surely through the civic deliberation maze. It appears to be
currently in the design stage. PVT Estates is being conditioned to provide a ten -foot right-of-way
dedication along its Wing Point Way frontage and contribute to the capital project funds for sidewalk,
bicycle lane and sidewalk ramp construction,
20. At the public hearing neighborhood resident Christine Larsen raised a question about the
parking, storage and staging of contractors' vehicles and equipment during plat construction in the
context of there currently being inadequate shoulder space along Wing Point Way for safe parking.
This problem could be further complicated if plat construction overlapped with the Wing Point Way
capital project. The public health and safety mandate that construction parking and staging not be
allowed to occur along Wing Point Way or on nearby residential streets. A condition will be added to
the plat approval requiring implementation of a plan for onsite construction parking and staging.
21. Malcolm Mead, the owner of property lying directly west of the site along Wing Point Way, has
an existing residential driveway that exits immediately adjacent to the proposed plat entry road's
intersection with Wing Point Way. The notion that the two contiguous access points would ever be able
to coexist harmoniously as shown on the preliminary plat drawings was probably never taken seriously
by either the applicant or Mr. Mead, but an actual settlement of their differences did not occur until
midway through the public hearing. One benefit of the delay was that during the period leading up to
settlement Mr. Mead's attorneys and consultants provided a detailed critique of the plat's preliminary
technical documents that also identified some other areas requiring correction. The modified conditions
arising out of -the settlement agreement authorize Mr. Mead to re-route his driveway through Tract C to
connect with the internal plat road, consolidating the two to provide a single access at Wing Point Way.
With some minor additions, staff has agreed to the settlement conditions.
22. After buying a house in May, 2013, on Wing Point Way east of and downslope from the PVT
Estates site, Jamie Beletz and his wife Melody Curtiss began to hear stories in the neighborhood
regarding possible chemical pollution on the PVT site allegedly resulting from a prior owner's
operation of a boiler treatment chemical resale business on the property. The concern focused on
potential leakage from barrels containing chemicals. Mr Beletz contacted the county Health District,
which in turn consulted with the state Department of Ecology. '-In June Kane Environmental Inc.
performed a limited site assessment for polluted soils in the vicinity of the old site residence. Test pits
produced trace amounts of arsenic, lead and chromium and an unregulated volatile organic compound.
After reviewing the assessment Ecology recommended no further action be taken as to site
investigation or clean-up,
23. At the hearing Mr. Beletz and Ms Curtiss continued to express concern about potential toxic
REPORT AND DECISION - 6
pollution issues, but other than repeating the truism that "water runs downhill" had no specific factual
information to offer. A review of the preliminary drainage plan suggests that no potentially
contaminated flows will be directed toward the Beletz property. The area around the existing old house
will become the site of the Tract B stormwater pond, and the roadway plus the two lots north of Tract B
will drain directly to the pond, then discharge to the Wing Point Way roadside ditch which flows east to
the ravine. The Beletz property appears to be uphill from both the roadside ditch and ravine discharge
point. As a further precaution, a condition will be added to require that any soils excavated from the
stormwater pond should be disposed offsite.
Subdivision Design Standards
24, BIMC 17.12.020 requires all single-family subdivisions within the City to be designed in
accordance with the flexible lot design requirements. In addition to the dimensional standards set out in
Title 18, these include an elaborate exercise for reviewing the proposed open space under BIMC17,12.030,
Of the eight possible open space objectives listed under subsection A(1), PVT Estates rings the bell on
four; conservation and enhancement of natural or scenic resources via the protection of the stream and
geologically hazardous buffers; protection of a stream; preservation of visual qualities along Wing
Point Way by providing a 50 foot roadside buffer; and enhancement of recreational activities by
providing a small pocket park within the development. Staff has also dutifully concIuded that the PVT
Estates open space design meets the configuration requirements of subsection A(2), comprises a high-
priority amenity (subsection A(3)), exceeds minimum areal requirements (subsection A(4)), and will
meet the applicable ownership (subsection A(6)), use (subsection A(7)), signage (subsection A(8)) and
management plan (subsection A(9)) standards.
25. BIMC 17.12.040 states the General Residential Subdivision Standards that the preliminary plat
must meet. These include the various design standards discussed above, plus meeting road, circulation
and infrastructure requirements. As documented above and within the staff report, the general
standards contained in BIMC 17.12.040 will be met by the PVT Estates preliminary plat application.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction over this proceeding and is authorized under City
ordinances to make a final decision on the PVT Estates preliminary subdivision application. Public
hearing notice requirements have been met.
2. As documented with the findings stated above, the plat application for PVT Estates meets the
decisional criteria stated at BIMC 2.16.125.H for preliminary approval of a long subdivision. It
complies with the applicable land use and subdivision development standards of BIMC Titles 17 and
18, and, as conditioned, makes appropriate provisions for the public health, safety and general welfare
and for the public use and interest, including all items listed in RCW 58.17.110. The proposed
development will be consistent with the City's comprehensive plan.
3. The preliminary long subdivision was prepared in conformity with the requirements of the
flexible lot design process. The open space set aside will ensure the long term protection of the stream,
slope and buffer critical areas while providing adequate space for residential development at the density
allowed by the zoning.
REPORT AND DECISION - 7
4. The City Engineer's recommendation for preliminary approval contains determinations that the
City's decisional criteria for drainage, streets and pedestrian ways, road standards and utilities can be
met, and such determinations are supported by substantial evidence within the record.

I have reviewed the above referenced final subdivision for compliance the requirements of
BIMC 2.16.160.F.2. and RCW 58.17.160 and I am recommending approval.
The applicant has appropriately bonded all remaining construction; the documentation is in the
project file. The applicant is still required to adhere to all Planning Department findings, City of
Bainbridge Island Municipal Code, State and Federal Law and good engineering and safety
practices.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
