SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE: (If this item is an ordinance or requires a public
hearing, you must provide the language for use in the required public notice. Be specific and cite RCW or WCC as appropriate. Be
clear in explaining the intent of the action.)
Under the Growth Management Act, Whatcom County and the seven cities within the County must complete the periodic update of their comprehensive plans and review
urban growth areas in 2016 (RCW 36.70A.130). The Planning and Development Services Department would like to discuss with Council amendments to the County's
development regulations, official zoning map, and related changes to the Comprehensive Plan and its subsets, proposed as part of that review and described as follows:
Amendments to Whatcom County Code (WCC) Title 20 (Zoning), Title 21 (Land Division Regulations), Title 22 (Guide Meridian Improvement Plan), and the official zoning
map. Title 20 amendments include amending WCC Chapter 20.36 to require reclamation plans for surface mining uses in the Rural zone, amending Chapter 20.43 revising the
maximum percentage of lot area that can be removed from production of forest products in the Commercial Forestry zone, amendments to WCC Chapters 20.72, 20.80.20.97
and the Point Roberts Character Plan involving sign regulations and permit review in the Point Roberts Special District, amending WCC Chapter 20.82 concerning new sewer
lines and amendments to WCC Chapters 20.24, 20.65, 20.66, 20.68, and 20.80.2 10 to update references to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. WCC 20.80.2 10 is adopted by
reference in the WCCP and amendments to that section are also a WCCP amendment. The Point Roberts Character Plan is a part of the Point Roberts Subarea Plan, which
is a subset of the WCCP, therefore the amendment is an amendment to the WCCP. Title 21 amendments consist of amending WCC Chapters 21.03, 21.04, 21.06, and
21.08 to change standards for required disclosures for plats near significant pipelines. Title 22 amendments consist of repealing Title 22, the Guide Meridian
Improvement Plan. The plan is a component of the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, which is a subset of the WCCP, therefore the amendment is also an amendment to the
WCCP. The changes to the zoning maps consist of amending the zoning maps for all urban growth areas to reflect changes to urban growth area and urban growth area
reserve boundaries, and rescinding the short term planning area zoning.

ADOPTING DEVELOPMENT REGULATION AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AMENDMENTS RELATING TO THE
2016 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PERIODIC UPDATE
WHEREAS, The Growth Management Act requires Whatcom County to
periodically review and update the Comprehensive Plan; and
WHEREAS, The Growth Management Act requires Whatcom County to
periodically review and update UGAs; and
WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Council reviewed and considered
Planning Commission recommendations, staff recommendations, city
recommendations, advisory committee recommendations, Tribal government
comments, and public comments on the Comprehensive Plan update; and
WHEREAS, The County Council hereby adopts the following findings of
fact:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The Planning Commission held a public hearing regarding these amendments
on May 26, 2016. Notification of the public hearing was published on May 13,
2016. The advertisement stated that amendments to WCC 20.80.210 and WCC
Title 22 are also amendments to the WCCP.
2. A determination of non - significance (DNS) was issued under the State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) on May 27, 2016
3. Notice of the proposed amendments was submitted to the Washington State
Department of Commerce on April 28, 2016.
Page 1 of 5
4. Pursuant to WCC 2.160.080, in order to approve the proposed comprehensive
plan amendments the Planning Commission and County Council must find all of
the following:
A. The amendment conforms to the requirements of the Growth Management
Act, is internally consistent with the county -wide planning policies and is
consistent with any interlocal planning agreements.
B. Further studies made or accepted by the Department of Planning and
Development Services indicate changed conditions that show need for the
amendment.
C. The public interest will be served by approving the amendment. In
determining whether the public interest will be served, factors including but
not limited to the following Snail oe considered:
1) The anticipated effect upon the rate or distribution of population
growth, employment growth, development, and conversion of land as
envisioned in the comprehensive plan.
2) The antiripaterl effect on the ability of the county anti /or other service
providers, such as cities, schools, water and /or sewer purveyors, fire
districts, and others as applicable, to provide adequate services and
public facilities including transportation facilities.
3) Anticipated impact upon designated agricultural, forest and mineral
resource lands.
D. The amendment does not include or facilitate spot zoning.
E. Urban growth area amendments that propose the expansion of an urban
growth area boundary are required to acquire development rights from a
designated TDR sending area, with certain exceptions.
5. Consistency. The Growth Management Act (GMA), at RCW 36.70A.070,
requires, "The comprehensive plan of a county or city...shall consist of a map
or maps, and descriptive text covering objectives, principles, and standards
used to develop the comprehensive plan. The plan shall be an internally
consistent document and all elements shall be consistent with the future land
use map." RCW 36.70A.040 requires that a "county and each city that is
located within the county shall adopt a comprehensive plan and development
regulations that are consistent with and implement the comprehensive plan..."
The purpose of the proposed development regulation amendments is to
maintain internal consistency within the WCCP, and to maintain consistency
between the WCCP and the County development regulations (WCC)
6. WCC Chaoter 20.36 Rural District - Surface Minina Reclamation Plans. WCCP
Policy 8K -4, as amended in the current periodic update, requires reclamation
of mineral resource lands to other compatible uses on an ongoing basis, using
best management practices. Consistent with this policy, the proposed
amendments add requirements for surface mining reclamation plans in WCC
20.36.159.
Page 2 of 5
7. WCC Chapter 20 43 Commercial Forestcy District - Lot Coverage. WCCP Policy
8F -9, as amended in the current periodic update, discourages inappropriate
conversion of designated forest land to incompatible uses. The policy states
that incompatible uses include those that permanently alter or remove a
significant portion of a parcel from forest product production, and defines a
significant portion as greater than 20% of the lot. The proposed amendment to
WCC 20.43.450 changes the maximum percentage of a lot area that can be
removed from forest product production from 25% to 20 %, consistent with
WCCP Policy 8F -9.
8. WCC Chapter 20,82 Public Utilities - Sewer Lines. To aid capital facility
planning near current and proposed urban growth area boundaries, the
proposed amendments clarify language to WCC 20.82.030(4) stating that
sewer lines may pass through areas outside urban growth areas provided they
do not provide sewer service to any lot in the non -urban areas. This provision
is consistent with WAC 365 - 196- 425(4)(b).
9. Point Roberts Character Plan - Signs and Review of Building Permits. In
accordance with the Point Roberts Character Plan Advisory Committee's desire
to have PDS administer sign permit review instead of the Committee, the
proposed amendments delete Section 11, the "sign ordinance" portion of the
Character Plan. Also at the suggestion of the Committee, the amendments
would revise Section 3 to change the time limit for the Point Roberts Character
Plan Advisory Committee to review building permit applications from 21 to 30
days, and add a link to the online version of the Character Plan.
10. WCC Chapter 20.72 Point Roberts Special District, WCC Char 20.80
Supplementary Requirements WCC Chapter 20.97 Definitions - Signs.
Concurrent with the proposal to remove the sign regulations from the Point
Roberts Character Plan, the proposed amendments add new sign regulations to
WCC 20.72.670. These regulations are generally consistent with those being
deleted from the Character Plan, and have been reviewed and recommended
by the Point Roberts Character Plan Advisory Committee. In addition, the
amendments would delete a reference to the Point Roberts Character Plan's
sign regulations, and add a definition of internally illuminated sign, a term
used in the proposed addition to 20.72.670.
11. WCC Chapters 20.24 URMX District 20.65 Gateway Industrial District 20.6E
Light Impact Industrial District 2.0.68 Heavy Impact Industrial District, and
20.80_Suo plementary Requirements - Urban Fringe Subarea Plan References.
The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan has several numbered reference maps, and the
content and numerical order of many of those maps have changed as the plan
has been amended over the years. WCC Title 20 currently contains outdated
references to Urban Fringe Subarea Plan maps in sections 20.24.052,
20.24.132(3) and (4), 20.24.700, 20.65.055(1), 20.65.400, 20.65.450,
20.65.550, 20.66.131(3), 20.68.064, and 20.80.210(5)(b) Gateway Industrial
Page 3 of 5
Setback Table. The proposed amendments update those references to
maintain consistency between the zoning code and the Subarea Plan. Because
Section 20.80.210 is adopted by reference in the WCCP (Policy 2DD- 2.B.3),
the amendment to that section is also a WCCP amendment.
12. wCC. Chapters 21.03 Exempt Land Divisions and Boundary Line Adjustments,
Chapter 21.04 'Short Subdivisions: Chapter 21.06 Final Long S bdivisions, and
Chapter 21.08 General and Specific Binding Site Plans - Disclosures Near
nificant Pip °line. Currently .NCC!' Chapter 5 establishes a 660 foot
notification area on each side of a natural gas and hazardous liquid
transmission pipeline. The draft amendments to Chapter 5 revise that
notification area to 500 feet (descriptive text under Natural Gas and Hazardous
Liquid Transmission Pipelines, 3rd paragraph). � v— TI- 21 currently requires
disclosures when a significant pipeline is within 660 feet of a subdivision,
binding site plan, exempt land division, or boundary line adjustment. The
proposed amendments change that disclosure distance to 500 feet, consistent
with the WCCP Chapter 5 and updating the map references to indicate WCCP
Map 5 -2.
13. WCC Title 22 - Guide Meridian Improvement Plan. The detailed provisions of
the Guide Meridian Plan, WCC Title 22, have been replaced by more current
code provisions, and all but about ten acres of that plan's study area has been
annexed by the City of Bellingham. Because there are no applicable
requirements remaining in WCC Title 22, the proposed amendments would
repeal it. According to its original cover page, the Guide Meridian Improvement
Plan is both a component of the Urban Fringe Comprehensive Plan and an
official control pursuant to Chapter 36.70.560 RCW. Therefore repeal of Title
22 is also an amendment to the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and its
subset, the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan.
14. Official County Zoning Map - Short Term Planning Areas. The current periodic
update deletes "Short Term Planning Area" zoning in urban growth areas.
Short and long term planning areas were used in previous editions of the
WCCP to differentiate between portions of urban growth areas that were more
ready for urban development than others (based largely on availability of
utilities). Long term planning areas were deleted from the WCCP in 2009. The
proposed amendments update the zoning maps for all urban growth areas,
noting that short term planning area zoning is rescinded.
CONCLUSIONS
The subject amendments are consistent with and implement the GMA
planning goals. The amendments conform to applicable requirements of
the Growth Management Act.
2. The subject amendments satisfy the approval criteria of WCC 2.160.080.

3. The proposed amendments to the development regulations are consistent
