Proposed Compliance Response (lands previously zoned R2/RW2 and currently zoned Interim R5/Interim RW5):

  • 1. Retain R2 zoning in newly designated LAMIRDs:
  • Solmar LAMIRD
  • Dungeness Meadows LAMIRD
  • Marine Drive LAMIRD
  • 2. Rezoning qualified parcels to Commercial Forest (CF) or

Public (P).

  • 3. Rezoning all other Interim R5/RW5 areas to new Rural

Transition (RTZ) Zoning Designation.

  • 4. RTZ zoned areas subject to new innovative zoning

techniques:

  • Rural Transition Overlay (RTO)
  • Rural Transition Clustering (RTC)
  • 5. Reconsider areas excluded from LAMIRDs and rezoned

to R5/RW5 for rezoning to RTZ at later date.

Marine Drive LAMIRD with R2 zoning Statistics:

  • 145 acres containing 84 parcels
  • Average parcel size = 1.73 acres
  • Range is 0.25 to 6.74 acres
  • 8% (7 parcels) remain > 4.8 acres

Logical Outer Boundaries: Bounded to north by Dungeness Bay and to the south by Dungeness Bay LAMIRD

Rezoning qualified parcels to Public (P) or Commercial Forest (CF)

  • 1. To Public (P):
  • Dungeness Spit area: 5 acres owned by USA;
  • Carrie Blake Park area: 22 acres owned by WDFW;
  • Robin Hill Park: 40 acres owned by Clallam County;
  • Salt Creek Rec Area: 9 acres owned by Clallam County;
  • Hoko River State Park: 74 acres owned by WP&R;
  • 2. To Commercial Forest (CF):
  • River Road: 77 acres owned by DNR;
  • Sekiu River Road: 46 acres owned by DNR
  • Western Central 2 Neighborhood

Recommendations:

  • 1. Rezone large holdings (Fruit Growers and Shoo-

Chuss) to Commercial Forest (CF). Meet all Comp Plan criteria.

  • 2. Rezone remaining ownerships (1 public, 4 private)

to Commercial Forest (CF):

  • Additional Comp Plan criteria for ownerships less

than 80 acres:

  • Surrounded on 3 sides by CF.
  • Other considerations:
  • No roads;
  • Significant critical areas;
  • Would retain right to construct one single family

residence per parcel.

Proposed Compliance Response:

  • 1. Retain R2 zoning in newly designated LAMIRDs:
  • Solmar LAMIRD
  • Dungeness Meadows LAMIRD
  • Marine Drive LAMIRD
  • 2. Rezoning qualified parcels to Commercial Forest (CF)
  • r Public (P).
  • 3. Rezoning all other Interim R5/RW5 areas to new Rural

Transition (RTZ) Zoning Designation.

  • 4. RTZ zoned areas subject to new innovative zoning

techniques:

  • Rural Transition Overlay (RTO)
  • Rural Transition Clustering (RTC)
  • 5. Reconsider areas excluded from LAMIRDs and

rezoned to R5/RW5 for rezoning to RTZ at later date.

The new Rural Transition (RTZ) Zoning Designation:

  • Density at 1 dwelling unit per 5 acres, with minimum lot

size at 1 acre;

  • RTZ zoned areas would be subject to new innovative

zoning techniques;

  • Only exception is Battelle site, to be rezoned to Rural

Low (R5).

SLIDE 15

Proposed Compliance Response:

  • 1. Retain R2 zoning in newly designated LAMIRDs:
  • Solmar LAMIRD
  • Dungeness Meadows LAMIRD
  • Marine Drive LAMIRD
  • 2. Rezoning qualified parcels to Commercial Forest (CF)
  • r Public (P).
  • 3. Rezoning all other Interim R5/RW5 areas to new Rural

Transition (RTZ) Zoning Designation.

  • 4. RTZ zoned areas subject to new innovative zoning

techniques:

  • Rural Transition Overlay (RTO)
  • Rural Transition Clustering (RTC)
  • 5. Reconsider areas excluded from LAMIRDs and

rezoned to R5/RW5 for rezoning to RTZ at later date.

The new Rural Transition Overlay (RTO) provision:

  • Allows higher density in areas already substantially

developed at higher density;

  • Maximum “parent” parcel size: 15 acres;
  • To qualify, at least 70% of parcels within 500 feet of

property boundary must be developed (including a structure) at the time of the RTO application;

  • Subject parcel density would depend on average density
  • f developed parcels within 500 feet of property

boundary (to a maximum density of 1 dwelling unit per 2.4 acres);

  • Land divisions occurring after ordinance adoption date

will not be considered (to avoid increasing densification);

  • Other relevant design standards will apply.

RTO Examples (PAPR West 2):

Target lots (2 by same

  • wner) = 10.3 acres total.

Options:

  • Rural Transition Zoning @

1 du/5 acres = 2 lots;

  • Rural Transition Overlay:

73% built lots within 500 feet at average of 2.3 acres = 4 lots @ 1 du/2.4 acres (maximum density);

  • Rural Transition Cluster:

Below min. of 11 acres.

Large vacant lot – 155 acres

slide-18
SLIDE 18

The new Rural Transition Clustering (RTC) provision:

  • Provides density bonuses for cluster development of

larger parcels;

  • Minimum “parent” parcel size: 11 acres (may be

comprised of several adjacent parcels, whether or not in common ownership);

  • Maximum overall density with clustering: 1 du/2.4 acres;
  • Minimum amount of open space or resource land to be

preserved: 70% of parent parcel area;

  • Other relevant cluster design standards will apply.
slide-19
SLIDE 19

RTO Examples (SDPR South):

Target lot = 20.2 acres. Options:

  • Rural Transition Zoning

@ 1 du/5 acres = 4 lots;

  • Rural Transition Overlay:

Exceeds max of 15 acres;

  • Rural Transition Cluster @

1 du/2.4 acres max = 8 clustered lots max, with 70% open space.
