C)q-c;4i Page 3of6 [)!f/h.1.../ '2009. ~~ CITY CLERK, DANA BARNARD EXHIBIT A FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The subject property is located in a Residential Medium Density (R-M) Zoning District at 401 19th Street NE #4 in Section 35, Township 23 N., Range 20 EWM, in the City of East Wenatchee, Washington. 2. The fee owner of record for Assessor's Parcel #55800300510 is Sand Canyon Legends LLC. 3. The subject property is within the study area of the Greater East Wenatchee Area Comprehensive Plan (2006) and is designated as suitable for Residential Medium (R-M) density development. Recommended density in this designation is up to 15 dwelling units per acre. Gross density for the proposed project is 4 dwelling units per acre. 4. The subject property is located in Residential Medium Density (R-M) zoning district. EWMC 17.28 contains provisions relative to development in the R-M District. Single- family residential use is a permitted use in that district. 5. The proposed project is being processed as a Planned Unit Development under Chapter 17.68 EWMC. EWMC 17.68.030 states that land uses in a PUD may include any uses permitted outright or as a conditional use in the zone where the PUD is located. 6. Chapter 17.68 EWMC authorizes flexibility in the design of a PUD by modifying the building spacing, side yard setbacks, front yard setbacks, lot width and street standards. 7. The Douglas County Road Standards were adopted by the City of East Wenatchee on an interim basis on June 27, 2006. Those standards provide for deviation of the street standards based upon certain criteria. 8. Copies of the application materials and environmental documents were sent to agencies with jurisdiction and commenting agencies requesting their review and comment on the proposed project including: Douglas County Fire District #2; East Wenatchee Contract Engineer (City Engineer), East Wenatchee Street Department; East Wenatchee Water District; Douglas County Sewer District; Douglas Co. PUD; Chelan-Douglas Health District; Wenatchee Reclamation District. 9. A threshold determination and environmental review pursuant to RCW 4 3 .21 C the State Environmental Policy Act was completed and Mitigated Determination ofNon- significance (MDNS) was issued on August 16, 2007. The environmental review was conducted as part of the processing of the binding site plan. Since there is no change to the project other than the property ownership pattern, the MDNS is still valid. 10. The Applicant provided justification for the deviation from the adopted road standards and in support of the modifications to lot dimension requirements. 11. The public use and interest will be served by the platting of the proposed subdivision. 12. As conditioned, adequate provisions have been made for the required elements of RCW 58.17.110, specifically the public health, safety and general welfare and for the following: a. open space f. sanitary waste disposal b. drainage ways g. parks and recreation facilities ORDINANCE NO. ((;8.-olo Page 4of6 c. public and/or private rights-of-way h. playgrounds d. transit I. schools and school grounds e. potable water J. sidewalks 13. Public testimony was taken at the hearing. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 1. As conditioned, the proposal will not be detrimental to the general public health, safety or welfare. 2. The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, goals, policies, land use designation, and density. 3. The requested modifications to the requirements of the R-M District will enable the subject property to be developed in a manner consistent with other lots in the vicinity and in the R-M Zoning District. 4. EWMC 17.68.330, 340, 350, and 380 provide guidance to the planning commission for modifications of the requirements of the underlying zoning for PUDs. The proposal provides adequate usable yard areas, low volume traffic flow, irregular lot configuration affording adequate privacy, perimeter setbacks consistent with the rear yard setback required in the R-M District to provide privacy for residents and neighboring properties which justify the modifications. 5. The Applicant has satisfied the requirements of Douglas County Road Standards 12.50.1 OO(D) for alternatives for deviation of the easement width and provision of sidewalks on one side of the street. 6. With the exception of the modification and deviations noted above, the proposed project complies with the requirements in EWMC Chapter 16.16 for Major Subdivisions and the Douglas County Road Standards.
