PUBLIC HEARINGS
Conditional Use Permit Application No 8907-02 -Reynolds. Mr Hildt
reviewed the findings, conclusions and conditions of the Planning
Commission. Mayor Pro-Tem Kenna opened the hearing to the public.
Gary Kaiser was recognized and spoke in favor of the permit. There
being no further testimony, Mayor Pro-Tem Kenna closed the hearing
to the public and turned to the Council for disposition.
Councilmember Clise made a motion that the Council adopt the
following findings, conclusions and conditions and approve
Conditional Use Permit Application No 8907-02 which was seconded
by Councilmember Camfield and passed unanimously by voice vote.
Findings:
1.
The applicant proposes to establish a bed and breakfast inn
in an existing single-family dwelling at 1310 Clay Street.
The property is located in the R-III zoning district. On June
20, 1989, the city Council passed an ordinance amending the
Port Townsend Municipal Code to provide a use designation and
provisions for bed and breakfast inns. Under the ordinance,
a bed and breakfast inn is allowed as a conditional use in the
R-III zoning district.
I
2.
The subject property is located on the northwest corner of
Clay and Harrison Streets. The property is surrounded by a
mixture of commercial and residential development. The
Pacific Northwest Bell office building is located adjacent to
the site to the northwest; the Uptown Dental Clinic and a
duplex are located across Harrison Street to the northeast;
the property is surrounded to the southeast and southwest by
single-family residential development. The zoning to the
I

MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF SEPTEMBER 19,1989, Cont.
northwest of the site is C-III; the zoning to the northeast
and southeast is R-III; and the zoning to the northeast is
R-I.
3.
The existing residence on the subject property was constructed
in 1890. The building is classified as a secondary historical
structure in the designation of the Port TownSEmd Historic
District. An accessory outbuilding is also located on the
northeast corner of the subject property. The ouitbuilding is
nonconforming with regard to the front setback requirements
in the zoning code. The residence, built prior to the
enactment of the Port Townsend zoning code in 1971, is legal
and nonconforming with respect to setbacks. The applicant has
no plans to expand the buildings.
4.
The proposed bed and breakfast inn would have four sleeping
units. section 17.28.075 of the Port Townsend Municipal Code,
as passed by the City council on June 20, 1090, states:
"A bed and breakfast inn or a tourist home shall
provide two off-street parking spaces for the owner's use
plus one parking space for each guest room, provided that
for a bed and breakfast inn in a building 'W'hich is:
a. Individually listed on the National
Register of Historic Places, or
b. Identified as either a pivotal, primary or
secondary building on the map which accompanied the
certification of the Port Townsend Historic District
on May 17, 1976;
the required number of off-street parking spaces shall
be reduced by the number of on-street parking spaces
which are located on that portion of the public street
right-of-way which is abutting the front and side lot
lines of the property."
The proposed bed and breakfast inn requires six off-street
parking spaces. Because the building is desiqnated as a
secondary historic structure, this requirement may be reduced
by the number of available on-street spaces abutting the
property. A parking plan submitted by the applicants, dated
July 13, 1989, shows four on-street parking spaces abutting
the subject property. Therefore, two off-str,eet parking
spaces are required for the proposed use. The applicant's
parking plan shows three off-street parking spaces on the
property.
5.
Washington state Law (RCW 70.62) provides regulations for
transient accommodations having three or more units.
Transient accommodations must meet regulations es1:ablished 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 bed and breakfast inn use of the subjE~ct property
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 R-.III zone ih
which the property is located, except for those legal>
nonconforming conditions which were in existence prior to the
enactment of the Port rrð~send Zoning code in 1971.
3.
The proposed use will not be injurious or detrimental to
adjoining or abutting property.
280
MINUTES OF THE REGULAR SESSION OF SEPTEMBER 19,1989, Cont.
4.
The locations 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 Port Townsend City Council grants the application as
conditioned:
I
1.
The proposed bed and breakfast inn shall exhibit no outward
appearance of a business or of a non-residential use, except
for signs permitted in Chapter 17.34 of the Port Townsend
Municipal Code.
2.
Use of the property as a bed and breakfast inn is restricted
to four guest rooms.
3.
Two off-street parking spaces shall be provided.
4.
The applicants shall comply with all applicable requirements
of the State of washington relating to transient
accommodations.
5.
If an occupancy permit is not obtained for the proposed use
of the subject property within one year from the date of the
board's decision, the conditional use permit shall be
cancelled and automatically become null and void.
This Conditional Use Permit is not transferable to another
entity (personal or corporate) other than the applicant unless
first authorized by the City Council.
Conditional Use Permit Application No 8907-03 -Kaiser. Mr Hildt
reviewed the findings, conclusions and conditions of the Planning
Commission. Mayor Pro-Tem Kenna opened the hearing to the public.
Gary Kaiser was recognized and spoke in favor of the application.
There being no further testimony, Mayor Pro-Tem Kenna closed the
hearing to the public and turned to the Council for disposition.
Councilmember Camfield made a motion that the Council adopt the
following findings, conclusions and conditions and approve
Conditional Use Permit Application No 8907-03 which was seconded
by Councilmember Chang and passed unanimously by voice vote.

Findings:
1.
2.
3.
The applicants propose to establish a tourist home use in
their existing single-family residence located at 333 Lawrence
Street. The subject property is located in the R-I zoning
district. On June 20, 1989, the City Council passed an
ordinance (Ordinance 2155) amending the Port Townsend
Municipal Code to provide a use designation and provisions for
bed and breakfast inns and tourist homes. Under the
provisions of the ordinance, a tourist home is permitted as
a conditional use in the R-I zoning district.
The subject property is described as Lots 6 and 8, Block 142,
Original Townsite, and Tax Lot 33, all of which encompasses
approximately 16,000 square feet. The property is located at
the southeast corner of Lawrence and Jackson Streets. The
portion of Jackson street abutting the subject property has
been vacated. The surrounding property is zoned R-I, and is
developed as single-family residential.
The applicants proposed to establish one guest unit in a 220
square foot porch area attached to the residence. The
residence was constructed in 1900, and is legal and noncon-
forming with regard to front setback requirements. No
expansion of the residence is planned for the proposed use:

section 6 of Ordinance 2155 states that "A bed and breakfast
inn or a tourist home shall provide two off-street parking
spaces for the owner's use plus one parking space for each
guest room". Therefore, the proposed use require::; three off-
street parking spaces. The plot plan submi t.ted by the
applicant shows three off-street parking spaces from La1;'I1"re:nce
street, including one parking space in an existing garage.
Conclusions:
1.
The proposed tourist home use of the subject property will not
endanger the public health or safety, nor will a nuisance be
created.
2.
The proposed use will be required to meet .all
conditions and specifications set forth in the R-I

at 517 Polk Street. The property is located in the R-III
zoning district. The building, the Captain Brown Apartments,
has been used as a multi-family dwelling since the 1930's.
The applicant resides in the building. On June 20,1989, the
City Council passed an ordinance (Ordinance 2155) amending the
Port Townsend Municipal Code to provide a use designation and
provisions for bed and breakfast inns. Under the ordinance,
a bed and breakfast inn is allowed as a conditional use in the
R-III zoning district. An art gallery is also permitted in
the R-III zoning district as a conditional use.
The subject building was constructed in 1964 as a single-
family residence. The building currently has five apartment
units. The applicant proposes to offer two units as bed and
breakfast guest rooms and two units as rental apartments. The
applicant resides in the fifth unit. The applicant also
proposes to convert a 420 square foot space into an antique
and art gallery. Therefore, the total square footage of the
proposed art gallery use would be approximately 420 square
feet. The operating hours of the proposed art gallery would
be 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Wednesday through Saturday, with
additional hours from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Fridays and during
gallery walks the first Saturday of each month.
I
3.
The subject property is located on the northwest corner of
Polk and Franklin Streets. The property is described as Lots
1 and 3, Block 107, Original Townsite, and consists of
approximately 12,000 square feet. The building is legal and
nonconforming with regard to front setback requirements. The
First Presbyterian Church is located across Franklin Street
to the southeast; the remaining property surrounding the
subject property is developed as single-family residential.
The property to the northwest of the subject property is zoned
R-III; the remaining surrounding property is zoned R-II.
I
4.
Because the apartment use of the building was established
prior to the enactment of the zoning code, off-street parking
requirements do not apply to the apartment unit. section 6
of Ordinance 2155 states that "A bed and breakfast inn or a
tourist home shall provide two off-street parking spaces for
the owner's use plus one parking space for each guest room.
" . Therefore, four off-street parking spaces would be
required for the proposed bed and breakfast use.
There is no off-street parking requirement in section
17.28.080 of the Port Townsend Municipal Code for an art
gallery. The code further states that in the case of a use
not specifically mentioned in Chapter 17.28, the requirements
for off-street parking be determined by the board of
adjustment (City Council), based upon the requirements of the
most comparable use listed (Section 17.28.050, Port Townsend
Municipal Code). The closest listed use in the Table of
Minimum Requirements for parking is a library/museum, which
requires one parking space per 200 square feet of gross floor
area. Using this figure, the off-street parking requirement
for the proposed art gallery would be 2 spaces, resulting in
a total off-street parking requirement of 6 spaces.
I
Conclusions:
1.
The proposed bed and breakfast inn and art gallery uses of the
subject property will not endanger the public health or
safety, nor will a nuisance be created.
2.
The proposed uses will be required to meet all of the
conditions and specifications set forth in the R-III zone in
which the property is located, except for those legal, noncon-

enactment of the Port Townsend zoning code in 1'971.
The proposed uses will not be injurious or dE~trimental to
adjoining or abutting property.
4.
The locations and character of the uses 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 Port Townsend city Council grants the application as

Six off-street parking spaces shall be provided in accordance
wi th the provisions of Chapter 17.28 of the Port Townsend
Municipal Code.
The proposed bed and breakfast inn shall exhibit no outward

Use of the property as a bed and breakfast inn is restricted
