The content of the plan is prescribed by Stat,e law. The most important single item that is going to affect the City is the requirement for mandatory filtration of surface wat~:!r sources. There is criteria for an exemption to the surface water treatment rule in the 1986 amendments to the State Drinking Water Act. Since they are still being formulated, they are tentative, but it would have to be demonstrated that the source water quality meets all the criteria, the water systems meets site specific crit:eria, meets disinfection criteria, and the most difficult, to demonstrate that the City has absolute control of activities within the watershed~ It is recommended that a detailed rate study be done between 1990 and 1991 in order to fund needed improvements. Councilmember McCulloch reported that the water/Sewer Committee had met and recommended that the Councilmembers study the plan and that it be brought up at the next meeting for comment. Mayor Shirley noted that if the exemption is not allowed, the filtration plant would exceed the cost of the secondary sewer treatment plant at five million dollars. Councilmember Kenna questioned the availability of water to the city if there should be an break in the main transmission line south of Four Corners.

PUBLIC HEARING Conditional Use Permit Application No 8901-02 -Lamy. Mr O'Neill reviewed the findings, conclusions and conditions of the Planning Commission for the Conditional Use Permit and the findings and conditions for the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit Application SDP89-0002. Mayor Shirley opened the hearing to the public. Doug Lamy was recognized and spoke in favor of the application. There being no further testimony, Mayor Shirley closed the hearing to the public and turned to the Council for disposition. Councilmember Kenna made a motion that 'the Council adopt the following findings, conclusions and conditions and grant the conditional use permit which was seconded by Councilmember Clise and passed unanimously by voice vote. Findings: 1. The applicants propose to construct a seven-unit motel building as an expansion of the James Swan Motel, a tourist motel operated by the applicants. The subject property is located at the northeast corner of Water and Monroe Streets in the C-III zoning district. A motel is permitted as a conditional use in the C-III zone. 2. The applicants have previously received two conditional use permits for the existing motel. On February 2,1988, the City Council granted a conditional use permit to the applicants to establish a motel use on the site with four cabins and a resident manager's office. A second conditional use permit was granted by the City Council to the applicant:s in July, 1988, for the conversion of a small office building located adjacent to the cabins into a motel suite. Therefore, the existing motel presently consists of four cabins, a three bedroom suite, and a resident manager's office. 3. The applicants propose to construct a three-story building at the northeast corner of the subject property. The applicants propose that the building would have four guest rooms on the first floor, two suites on the second floor, and one penthouse on the third floor, for a total of seven additional guest uni ts. The height of the building as currently proposed would 146 9. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF MARCH 21,1989, Cont. be 48 feet. The zoning code restricts building height in the C-III zoning district to 50 feet (Section 17.20.010, Port Townsend Municipal Code). 4. The subject property is surrounded on all sides by commercial development. A restaurant is located to the east, a small- scale commercial office building to the north, the American Legion Hall is located across Monroe Street to the west, and the Thomas oil Company is across Water street to the south. Ingress and egress to and from the site is presently provided by a driveway from Monroe street, which serves the manager's office and suite, and four driveways from Water Street which serve the four cabins. The applicants propose to provide ingress to the site from the driveway on Monroe Street and egress from the eastern-most driveway on Water Street. The remaining three driveways on Water street are shown as parking areas on the applicants' site plan. I 5. 6. The Planning Commission and City Council added a condition to the original conditional use permit granted to the applicants that one off-street parking space would be retained for each motel unit and for the resident motel office. This resulted in an off-street parking requirement of five spaces. A further condition was added to the applicants' second conditional use permit requiring two off-street parking spaces to be provided for the suite. Therefore, the applicants I current parking requirement is seven off-street parking spaces. Four on-street parking spaces are presently available on Water Street abutting the subject property, while four additional on-street spaces are available on Monroe Street. I 7. The applicants propose seven additional guest units in the new building. Section 17.28.080 of the Port Townsend Municipal Code requires 1 off-street parking space to be provided for each guest unit for a motel. section 17.28.100 states that for uses within the Downtown Parking District, the parking requirements in sections 17.28.080 are reduced to seventy-five percent of the requirements which would otherwise apply. This reduction, as applied to the proposed building, would result in an off-street parking requirement of 5 spaces for the proposed expansion. section 17.28.100 further states that uses within the Downtown Parking District which are established in a proposed building the design of which is found by the Historic Preservation commission to contribute to the Port Townsend Historic District, the parking requirements listed in section 17.28.080 are reduced to forty- five percent of the requirements which would otherwise apply. The applicants have stated that they intend to apply to the Historic Preservation commission for this finding. Such a reduction placed on the applicants' proposed building would result in an off-street parking requirement of 3 spaces for the proposed expansion. 8. The subject property is wi thin 200 feet of a shoreline of statewide significance, and thus requires a shoreline substantial development permit pursuant to the Jefferson County-Port Townsend Shoreline Management Master Program. The applicant has applied for a shoreline development permit, a public hearing on which will be held by the Jefferson county- Port Townsend Shoreline Management Advisory Commission on March 15, 1989. At its meeting of February 21,1989, the City Council issued a mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) for the project after review of the environmental checklist submitted by the applicant pursuant to the Washington State Environmental Policy Act. The mitigating conditions added to I I I 147 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF MARCH 21, 1989, Cont. the DNS by Council direct the applicant to submit storm drainage plans to the City Public Works Director and submit a parking plan which conforms to the requirements and specifications of the Port Townsend, Municipal Code.

Washington state law (RCW 70.62) provides regulations for transient accommodations having three or more uni ts. Transient accommodations must meet regulations established by the Washington State Board of Health, the Washington state Department of Social and Health Services, and the State Fire Marshall. Conclusions: 1. The proposed motel use of the subject building will not endanger the public health or safety, nor will a nuisance be created. 2. The proposed use will be required to meet all of the conditions and specifications set forth in the C-III zone in which the property is located. The proposed use will not be injurious or detrimental to adjoining or abutting property. 3. 4. The site is zoned C-III and is surrounded by commercial development. The commercial development policies in the Comprehensive Plan state that "commercial development should be located in areas where a reasonable demand can be expected for community oriented needs or to provide tourist-oriented services" and that "Development of Port Townsenc:i' s visitor services potential should be encouraged". Therefore, the location and character of the use will be in harmony with the area in which it is located and will be in general conformity with the Comprehensive Plan. In consideration of the aforementioned findings and conclusions, the City Council grants the above referenced application as conditioned. Conditions: 1. I 2 . 3. Should the Historic Preservation commission find that the design of the applicants' proposed building contributes to the Port Townsend Historic District, the parking requirements for the proposed used expansion shall be 3 off-str':!et parking spaces, resulting in a total parking requirement of 10 off- street parking spaces for the subject property. If the Historic Preservation Commission does not make this finding, the parking requirement for the proposed use expansion shall be 5 off-street parking spaces, resulting in a total requirement of 12 off-street parking spaces. The applicants shall submit a parking plan which conforms to the requirements and specifications of Chapter 1'7.28 of the Port Townsend Municipal Code. All required conditions and specifications of the C-III zoning district and the Shoreline Management Master Prog:r'am shall be met. 148 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF MARCH 21,1989, Cont. 4.
