One of the FWG recommendations was the acquisition of a countywide electronic patient care reporting system (EPCR) and Record Management System (RMS). A new county -wide ePCR software program will provide a common data collection and analysis platform. To achieve this goal, the Fire Chiefs Association in collaboration with the three largest fire agencies, nominated for the task, vetted several vendors to determine which could best accommodate the needs of a new county wide system. Image Trend, a leader in the industry, was determined to be the vendor most suited to Whatcom County needs. The Fire Chief's Association also recognizes that ImageTrend will be able to provide for fire record management systems to further improve all aspects of response, patient care and outcomes. On July 13, 2017 the Whatcom County EMS Oversight Board unanimously approved for council recommendation the acquisition and subsequent implementation of a county -wide ePCR software program in the amount of $150,000. Subsequently, the County Council approved the acquisition through Budget Supplemental Ordinance 2017-059. The contract has not yet been completed and is now anticipated for January 2018. This budget supplemental moves the previously approved budget expenditure to 2018. A new EMS Manager is anticipated to begin work in 2018. This position requires a vehicle to travel to different agencies throughout the County. ACTION: The County Executive requests council review and approval of this budget supplemental in the amount of $150,000 for the acquisition of a new county wide ePCR and RMS system and the purchase of a vehicle for the new EMS Manager. 10 Office (360) 778-5200 FAX (360) 778-5201 TRS: 711 Supplemental Budget Request Status: Pending Non -Departmental Supp'11 ,'l 2516 Fund 130 Cost Center 130100 Originator: T.

Requested Action Facilities Management respectfully requests that the County Executive and Whatcom County Council approve the attached Supplemental Budget Request #2512, allowing sufficient budget authority to fund the existing Design2Last contract. Background and Purpose On November 8, 2017 the County Council approved the amended contract for Design2Last for Scoping, Design, and Project Management for improvements to the existing Jail. The existing Jail Improvement Project Based Budget does not have sufficient funds for the expanded scope of work approved in the contract. Currently, there is approximately $340,000 for design services in the Jail Improvement Project Based Budget. The Design2Last Contract was approved for an additional $543,000 (total contract amount to date $913,287.20). Based on the Design Charrette held on November 28, 2017 and in consideration that the Jail bond did not pass and the useful life of the existing Jail facility will 21 need to be extended, Design2l.ast and Facilities Management will be presenting to the County Council options for further expansion of scope of work. If approved, this budget will need to be expanded again to include the additional scope items. ■ Funding Amount and Source Adequate funds exist within the Capital Project Fund, expanded by $7,000,000 in the 2018 Budget.

Description of request: Whatcom County entered into an agreement with design2LAST to assess the current jail facilities and design the necessary renovations to the existing jail facility. 1b. Primary customers: Sheriffs Office Personnel, Jail inmates and service providers. 2. Problem to be solved: design2LAST was retained by Whatcom County to perform building assessments on the existing Jail, (Public Safety Bulding) and the existing Work Center. The assessments, completed as Phase 1A in December of 2016 were to address two issues; the physical condition of each building; and the operational condition of each facility. The objective of the assessment was to identify building systems, materials, and procedures that can be improved to increase building safety and reform proesses which would allow the facilities to remain in operation until such time as a new Public Safety Building can be procured, constructed, and occupied. The result of that study included a long list of deficiencies and potential repairs and tasks at both facilities, and included a rough order of magnitude costs. Whatcom County then selected the ten most urgent tasks for further study for the Main Jail building only. Phase 1 B which anticipates the renovations needed to keep the jail as safe and secure as possible until a new jail can be built, is currently under development. The objective of this phase is to complete a more detailed, yet non-invasive, study of each of the tasks for the Main Jail only, and propose corrective actions (scope options) as well as total estimated costs. Extensive maintenance and renewal work is projected to cost more than $32M as outlined in the design2LAST report. According to that report due to the existing jail configuration and footprint this work will not provide any meaningful or permanent answers to space related issues such as medical, booking, classification and programs. 3a. Options / Advantagies: Repair and renovation are necessary to address the physical conditions and operations of the existing jail and work center While extensive maintenance and renewal work is projected to cost more than $32M as outlined in the Design2Last report, according to that report the existing jail configuration and footprint work will not provide meaningful or permanent answers to space related issues such as medical, booking, classification and programs. The other option is to construct a new facility where many of the deficiencies of the current jail can be adequately addressed such as medical, booking, classification, and programs. A new sales tax to support the construction of a new jail was not approved by the Whatcom County tax payers.

Cost savings: There are no cost savings to this approach. The current Main Jail facility can not be made to fit the need for space or code issues. This work will extend the current use of the facility. However, it will not meet the space needs for programs, medical, booking, classifications or code issues. 4a. Outcomes: Whatcom County has contracted with design2LAST for building assement studies known as Phase 1. The contract for services has been amended to include the scope for Phase 2 and Phase 3. The expanded scope includes cost estimates for captial improvement and construction administration services at the jail. This budget supplemental provides budget authority for the expanded scope. 4b.

Last year, the FCZD entered into a subaward agreement with TNC to provide funding for construction of the Deming Levee Improvement project and completion of a detailed geomorphic assessment of the Lower Nooksack River to support the integrated planning process to update the comprehensive flood hazard management plan. This amendment provides the second year of grant funding for these two projects. ■ Funding Amount and Source The original subaward for the first year of the grant funding was for $250,000. NOAA wanted to review their grantee's progress in implementing the grant before they would allocate the second year of funding. Because we have demonstrated good progress, they are now allocating the second year of funding. This amendment provides an additional $150,000 for total amount of $400,000; $300,000 of the funding will support the Deming Levee Improvement Project and $100,000 is for the geomorphic assessment.

NOTARY PUBLIC in and for the State of Washington, residing at My commission expires 32 Schedulel Scope of Work Task 1- Deming Levee Setback Construction Background: The Nooksack River is the fourth largest watershed in the Puget Sound. From its headwaters, the watershed drains an area of approximately 835 square miles before entering the marine waters of Bellingham Bay. The Nooksack River, its tributaries and adjacent independent coastal streams represent 1,437 miles of habitat which either bear, or could bear, salmonids. The Nooksack support ten salmonid species including ESA -listed populations of Chinook salmon, steelhead, and bull trout. All species use the mainstem Nooksack River to fulfill their life history needs. Whatcom County Flood Control Zone District is seeking construction funding for the Deming floodplain restoration project implementation in 2017. The proposed project reconnects a tributary channel and historic channel area that were disconnected when the existing substandard berm was constructed, and enables reconnection of river floodplain and established riparian forest and improved side channel development over time, directly addressing Chinook and steelhead habitat needs. An alternatives analysis has been completed, construction -ready plans are in -hand, and permits are nearing final approval. The project will construct a short setback levee so that the current substandard berm can degrade over time allowing reconnection of five acres of historic Nooksack River floodplain and re-establishment of a riparian forest. An opening in the berm and a new channel will be created to connect a small tributary and associated wetland to the existing Nooksack River side channel, and large woody debris will be installed in the tributary. This will provide 625 linear feet of stream channel and 0.4 acres of wetland that will provide off - channel rearing and flood refugia for juvenile salmonids. Riparian areas disturbed during construction will be replanted with native conifers, improving riparian function and edge habitat. The setback levee will be an improved structure that allows more floodwater conveyance in the mainstem of the Nooksack River and is less likely to overtop or breach into the town of Deming. Installation of a gate will also limit the current 4x4 and ORV activity on the site which is damaging riparian and wetland areas and impacting water quality. Goal: Restore floodplain function on five acres of historic Nooksack River floodplain and restore tributary connectivity and fish habitat while reducing flood risk to the community of Deming. Objectives: • Remove a portion of existing levee to restore fish passage and connectivity to 625 feet of Marshall Hill Creek and five acres of Nooksack River floodplain. • Construct a setback levee to maintain or improve flood protection to key public and tribal infrastructure in Deming. • Install multiple log structures to improve habitat diversity and complexity in creek and side -channel rearing habitats. • Install gate to prevent ORV and 4x4 access that degrade water quality and riparian and wetland habitats. Outcomes: Reconnect 5 acres of historic floodplain through levee removal and setback that restores critical floodplain habitat while reducing flood risks to the town of Deming Restore 625' of tributary habitat and 0.4 acres of wetland to provide off channel salmon rearing and refugia Scope of Work: Whatcom County Public Works will develop a bid package including the final plans and specifications, advertise the request for bids and award the bid to the lowest responsible bidder. The Construction Contractor that is hired to construct this project will complete the work tasks listed by WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) Standard Specification or Special Provisions number as shown below. In addition to expenses incurred by the construction contractor, additional costs Page 3 of 11 �W billed to this task may include costs by the BNSF Railroad to construct a new railroad crossing at the new levee alignment, materials testing, and construction support by the design engineer to ensure the project meets specifications.

As such, there are multiple community interests and priorities along the Nooksack floodplain including salmon recovery, flood risk reduction, water quality, and agricultural operability and viability. In an effort to coordinate these community interests, a planning effort is underway to integrate multiple priorities and create a roadmap for achieving wins for all stakeholders. One of the data gaps is a comprehensive detailed geomorphic assessment. Geomorphic analysis has been completed on portions of the Lower Nooksack River. Additional work is needed to complete assessments on reaches lacking this analysis and to compile all the analyses into a single set of products. Geomorphic analysis is a critical component in comprehensive river planning, providing a context within which the effects of existing hydro -modifications can be better understood and constraints to habitat can be identified. It also provides a context for evaluating potential flood hazard reduction strategies to ensure they can be effective in reducing flood risk and do not continue to degrade the system. The next phase of planning for the lower Nooksack River will be to update the comprehensive flood hazard management plan in a manner that integrates salmon habitat protection and restoration goals while also addressing the needs of the agricultural community, as most of the Nooksack River floodplain is currently used for agriculture. Goal: Fill a critical knowledge gap identified as a barrier to advancing salmon recovery and flood hazard management in the lower Nooksack watershed. Objectives: • Complete a geomorphic assessment of the lower Nooksack River to create an understanding of river processes, anthropogenic impacts, and geomorphic thresholds that may affect the ability to restore properly functioning habitat and reduce flood risk. • Provide a final report, GIS files, and other products suitable to incorporate the geomorphic assessment into updated salmon recovery planning, flood hazard planning, and an integrated floodplain vision and 10-year plan Outcomes: • Advance multiple benefit project planning by filling a key knowledge gap that is currently a barrier to advancing floodplain project identification and design — a geomorphic assessment of the Nooksack River. Scope of Work: Whatcom County Public Works will oversee and manage the geomorphic assessment project, including hiring a consultant to complete the technical work described below. Tasks 2.1 through 2.4 will be completed in year one (by December 31, 2017). Completion of other tasks will be contingent on additional funds and time. Page 5 of 11 M Task 2.1— Project Kick -Off Hold a project kick-off meeting and initial field review to clarify scoping elements, discuss supporting data sources, coordinate with other projects gathering similar data, refine the project schedule and gain overall site familiarity. This task includes a meeting with agencies and others holding data. Completion date: February 1, 2017 Task 2.2 - Data Compilation Compile and summarize existing data; identify gaps in historical imagery and other key data sets and fill the gaps as possible. Identify sources of potential supporting data and request data as appropriate. Completion date: March 3, 2017 Task 2.3 — Geomorphic Analysis Perform a baseline geomorphic evaluation of the project reach with a focus on remote analysis using aerial photos, lidar, and other mapping layers to document rates and patterns of geomorphic change. This task includes stakeholder meeting #1. Completion date: July 1, 2017 Task 2.4 — Evaluate Additional Geomorphic Parameters to Support Habitat Assessment Evaluate key geomorphic parameters (e.g. role of large wood in shaping channel, history of wood management, persistence of wood) that link the geomorphology to current habitat forming processes. Information will inform habitat assessment to be done separately and habitat protection and restoration priorities. This task will be included in stakeholder meeting #1 Completion date: July 1, 2017 Task 2.5 — Technical Assistance The County may call upon the Contractor to perform specific professional services to support the geomorphic assessment process as needed. Anticipated services will likely include: • Additional analysis to respond to stakeholder input • Attendance and participation in additional stakeholder meetings beyond those identified in this scope of work to present additional analysis. Completion date: December 31, 2018 Task 2.6 — Integration of Results with Flood Control Strategies Evaluate flood control strategies and how they influence geomorphic processes and salmon habitat parameters. Consider anticipated geomorphic trajectories at specific sites and for broader floodplain management. Provide recommendations to modify existing flood infrastructure to achieve ecological gain and to reduce maintenance requirements while retaining flood hazard management functions and achieving system resilience. This task includes stakeholder meeting #2. Completion date: December 1, 2018 Task 2.7 — Reporting Prepare and present a draft report at stakeholder meeting #3.

Local Force or Local Ad and Award t/ Method C -Agency cost incurred with partial reimbursement The Local Agency further stipulates that pursuant to said Title 23, regulations and policies and procedures, and as a condition to payment of the federal funds obligated, it accepts and will comply with the applicable provisions set forth below. Adopted by official action on , Resolution/Ordinance No. Provisions 1. Scope of Work The Agency shall provide all the work, labor, materials, and services necessary to perform the project which is described and set forth in detail in the "Project Description" and "Type of Work." When the State acts for and on behalf of the Agency, the State shall be deemed an agent of the Agency and shall perform the services described and indicated in "Type of Work" on the face of this agreement, in accordance with plans and specifications as proposed by the Agency and approved by the State and the Federal Highway Administration. When the State acts for the Agency but is not subject to the right of control by the Agency, the State shall have the right to perform the work subject to the ordinary procedures of the State and Federal Highway Administration. II. Delegation of Authority The State is willing to fulfill the responsibilities to the Federal Government by the administration of this project. The Agency agrees that the State shall have the full authority to carry out this administration. The State shall review, process, and approve documents required for federal aid reimbursement in accordance with federal requirements. If the State advertises and awards the contract, the State will further act for the Agency in all matters concerning the project as requested by the Agency. If the Local Agency advertises and awards the project, the State shall review the work to ensure conformity with the approved plans and specifications. Ill. Project Administration Certain types of work and services shall be provided by the State on this project as requested by the Agency and described in the Type of Work above. In addition, the State will furnish qualified personnel for the supervision and inspection of the work in progress. On Local Agency advertised and awarded projects, the supervision and inspection shall be limited to ensuring all work is in conformance with approved plans, specifications, and federal aid requirements. The salary of such engineer or other supervisor and all other salaries and costs incurred by State forces upon the project will be considered a cost thereof. All costs related to this project incurred by employees of the State in the customary manner on highway payrolls and vouchers shall be charged as costs of the project. IV. Availability of Records All project records in support of all costs incurred and actual expenditures kept by the Agency are to be maintained in accordance with local government accounting procedures prescribed by the Washington State Auditor's Office, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the Washington State Department of Transportation. The records shall be open to inspection by the State and Federal Government at all reasonable times and shall be retained and made available for such inspection for a period of not less than three years from the final payment of any federal aid funds to the Agency. Copies of said records shall be furnished to the State and/or Federal Government upon request. V. Compliance with Provisions The Agency shall not incur any federal aid participation costs on any classification of work on this project until authorized in writing by the State for each classification. The classifications of work for projects are: 1. Preliminary engineering. 2. Right of way acquisition. 3. Project construction. Once written authorization is given, the Agency agrees to show continuous progress through monthly billings. Failure to show continuous progress may result the Agency's project becoming inactive, as described in 23 CFR 630, and subject to de -obligation of federal aid funds and/or agreement closure. If right of way acquisition, or actual construction of the road for which preliminary engineering is undertaken is not started by the close of the tenth fiscal year following the fiscal year in which preliminary engineering phase was authorized, the Agency will repay to the State the sum or sums of federal funds paid to the Agency under the terms of this agreement (see Section IX). If actual construction of the road for which right of way has been purchased is not started by the close of the tenth fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the right of way phase was authorized, the Agency will repay to the State the sum or sums of federal funds paid to the Agency under the terms of this agreement (see Section IX). DOT Form 140-039 Page 2 Revise/2015 The Agency agrees that all stages of construction necessary to provide the initially planned complete facility within the limits of this project will conform to at least the minimum values set by approved statewide design standards applicable to this class of highways, even though such additional work is financed without federal aid participation. The Agency agrees that on federal aid highway construction projects, the current federal aid regulations which apply to liquidated damages relative to the basis of federal participation in the project cost shall be applicable in the event the contractor fails to complete the contract within the contract time. VI. Payment and Partial Reimbursement The total cost of the project, including all review and engineering costs and other expenses of the State, is to be paid by the Agency and by the Federal Government. Federal funding shall be in accordance with the Federal Transportation Act, as amended, 2 CFR Part 200. The State shall not be ultimately responsible for any of the costs of the project. The Agency shall be ultimately responsible for all costs associated with the project which are not reimbursed by the Federal Government. Nothing in this agreement shall be construed as a promise by the State as to the amount or nature of federal participation in this project. The Agency shall bill the state for federal aid project costs incurred in conformity with applicable federal and state laws. The agency shall minimize the time elapsed between receipt of federal aid funds and subsequent payment of incurred costs. Expenditures by the Local Agency for maintenance, general administration, supervision, and other overhead shall not be eligible for federal participation unless a current indirect cost plan has been prepared in accordance with the regulations outlined in 2 CFR Part 200 - Uniform Admin Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and retained for audit. The State will pay for State incurred costs on the project. Following payment, the State shall bill the Federal Government for reimbursement of those costs eligible for federal participation to the extent that such costs are attributable and properly allocable to this project. The State shall bill the Agency for that portion of State costs which were not reimbursed by the Federal Government (see Section IX). 1. Project Construction Costs Project construction financing will be accomplished by one of the three methods as indicated in this agreement. Method A — The Agency will place with the State, within (20) days after the execution of the construction contract, an advance in the amount of the Agency's share of the total construction cost based on the contract award. The State will notify the Agency of the exact amount to be deposited with the State. The State will pay all costs incurred under the contract upon presentation of progress billings from the contractor. Following such payments, the State will submit a billing to the Federal Government for the federal aid participation share of the cost. When the project is substantially completed and final actual costs of the project can be determined, the State will present the Agency with a final billing showing the amount due the State or the amount due the Agency. This billing will be cleared by either a payment from the Agency to the State or by a refund from the State to the Agency. Method B — The Agency's share of the total construction cost as shown on the face of this agreement shall be withheld from its monthly fuel tax allotments. The face of this agreement establishes the months in which the withholding shall take place and the exact amount to be withheld each month. The extent of withholding will be confirmed by letter from the State at the time of contract award. Upon receipt of progress billings from the contractor, the State will submit such billings to the Federal Government for payment of its participating portion of such billings. Method C — The Agency may submit vouchers to the State in the format prescribed by the State, in duplicate, not more than once per month for those costs eligible for Federal participation to the extent that such costs are directly attributable and properly allocable to this project. Expenditures by the Local Agency for maintenance, general administration, supervision, and other overhead shall not be eligible for Federal participation unless claimed under a previously approved indirect cost plan. The State shall reimburse the Agency for the Federal share of eligible project costs up to the amount shown on the face of this agreement. At the time of audit, the Agency will provide documentation of all costs incurred on the project. The State shall bill the Agency for all costs,incurred by the State relative to the project. The State shall also bill the Agency for the federal funds paid by the State to the Agency for project costs which are subsequently determined to be ineligible for federal participation (see Section IX). VII. Audit of Federal Consultant Contracts The Agency, if services of a consultant are required, shall be responsible for audit of the consultant's records to determine eligible federal aid costs on the project. The report of said audit shall be in the Agency's files and made available to the State and the Federal Government. An audit shall be conducted by the WSDOT Internal Audit Office in accordance with generally accepted governmental auditing standards as issued by the United States General Accounting Office by the Comptroller General of the United States; WSDOT Manual M 27-50, Consultant Authorization, Selection, and Agreement Administration; memoranda of understanding between WSDOT and FHWA; and 2 CFR Part 200.501 -Audit Requirements. If upon audit it is found that overpayment or participation of federal money in ineligible items of cost has occurred, the Agency shall reimburse the State for the amount of such overpayment or excess participation (see Section IX). VIII. Single Audit Act The Agency, as a subrecipient of federal funds, shall adhere to the federal regulations outlined in 2 CFR Part 200.501 as well as all applicable federal and state statutes and regulations. A subrecipient who expends $750,000 or more in federal awards from all sources during a given fiscal year shall have a single or program -specific audit performed for that year in accordance with the provisions of 2 CFR Part 200.501. Upon conclusion of the audit, the Agency shall be responsible for ensuring that a copy of the report is transmitted promptly to the State. DOT Form 140-039 Page 3 Revised 05/2015 75 IX. Payment of Billing The Agency agrees that if payment or arrangement for payment of any of the State's billing relative to the project (e.g., State force work, project cancellation, overpayment, cost ineligible for federal participation, etc.) is not made to the State within 45 days after the Agency has been billed, the State shall effect reimbursement of the total sum due from the regular monthly fuel tax allotments to the Agency from the Motor Vehicle Fund. No additional Federal project funding will be approved until full payment is received unless otherwise directed by the Director, Local Programs. Project Agreement End Date - This date is based on your projects Period of Performance (2 CFR Part 200.309). Any costs incurred after the Project Agreement End Date are NOT eligible for federal reimbursement. All eligible costs incurred prior to the Project Agreement End Date must be submitted for reimbursement within 90 days after the Project Agreement End Date or they become ineligible for federal reimbursement. X. Traffic Control, Signing, Marking, and Roadway Maintenance The Agency will not permit any changes to be made in the provisions for parking regulations and traffic control on this project without prior approval of the State and Federal Highway Administration. The Agency will not install or permit to be installed any signs, signals, or markings not in conformance with the standards approved by the Federal Highway Administration and MUTCD. The Agency will, at its own expense, maintain the improvement covered by this agreement. Xl. indemnity The Agency shall hold the Federal Government and the State harmless from and shall process and defend at its own expense all claims, demands, or suits, whether at law or equity brought against the Agency, State, or Federal Government, arising from the Agency's execution, performance, or failure to perform any of the provisions of this agreement, or of any other agreement or contract connected with this agreement, or arising by reason of the participation of the State or Federal Government in the project, PROVIDED, nothing herein shall require the Agency to reimburse the State or the Federal Government for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons or damage to property caused by or resulting from the sole negligence of the Federal Government or the State. XI1. Nondiscrimination Provision No liability shall attach to the State or Federal Government except as expressly provided herein. The Agency shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the award and performance of any USDOT- assisted contract and/or agreement or in the administration of its DBE program or the requirements of 49 CFR Part 26. The Agency shall take all necessary and reasonable steps under 49 CFR Part 26 to ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of USDOT-assisted contracts and agreements. The WSDOT's DBE program, as required by 49 CFR Part 26 and as approved by USDOT, is incorporated by reference in this agreement. Implementation of this program is a legal obligation and failure to carry out its terms shall be treated as a violation of this agreement. Upon notification to the Agency of its failure to carry out its approved program, the Department may impose sanctions as provided for under Part 26 and may, in appropriate cases, refer the matter for enforcement under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986 (31 U.S. C. 3801 et seq.). The Agency hereby agrees that it will incorporate or cause to be incorporated into any contract for construction work, or modification thereof, as defined in the rules and regulations of the Secretary of Labor in 41 CFR Chapter 60, which is paid for in whole or in part with funds obtained from the Federal Government or borrowed on the credit of the Federal Government pursuant to a grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee or understanding pursuant to any federal program involving such grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, the required contract provisions for Federal -Aid Contracts (FHWA 1273), located in Chapter 44 of the Local Agency Guidelines. The Agency further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work: Provided, that if the applicant so participating is a State or Local Government, the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality, or subdivision of such government which does not participate in work on or under the contract. The Agency also agrees: (1) To assist and cooperate actively with the State in obtaining the compliance of contractors and subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor. (2) To furnish the State such information as it may require for the supervision of such compliance and that it will otherwise assist the State in the discharge of its primary responsibility for securing compliance. (3) To refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant to the Executive Order. (4) To carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the State, Federal Highway Administration, or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the Agency agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the State may take any or all of the following actions: (a) Cancel, terminate, or suspend this agreement in whole or in part; (b) Refrain from extending any further assistance to the Agency under the program with respect to which the failure or refusal occurred until satisfactory assurance of future compliance has been received from the Agency; and (c) Refer the case to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal proceedings. DOT Form 140-039 Page 4 Revise7f5/2015 XIII. Liquidated Damages The Agency hereby agrees that the liquidated damages provisions of 23 CFR Part 635, Subpart 127, as supplemented, relative to the amount of Federal participation in the project cost, shall be applicable in the event the contractor fails to complete the contract within the contract time. Failure to include liquidated damages provision will not relieve the Agency from reduction of federal participation in accordance with this paragraph. XIV. Termination for Public Convenience The Secretary of the Washington State Department of Transportation may terminate the contract in whole, or from time to time in part, whenever: (1) The requisite federal funding becomes unavailable through failure of appropriation or otherwise. (2) The contractor is prevented from proceeding with the,work as a direct result of an Executive Order of the President with respect to the prosecution of war or in the interest of national defense, or an Executive Order of the President or Governor of the State with respect to the preservation of energy resources. (3) The contractor is prevented from proceeding with the work by reason of a preliminary, special, or permanent restraining order of a court of competent jurisdiction where the issuance of such order is primarily caused by the acts or omissions of persons or agencies other than the contractor. (4) The Secretary is notified by the Federal Highway Administration that the project is inactive. (5) The Secretary determines that such termination is in the best interests of the State. XV. Venue for Claims and/or Causes of Action For the convenience of the parties to this contract, it is agreed that any claims and/or causes of action which the Local Agency has against the State of Washington, growing out of this contract or the project with which it is concerned, shall be brought only in the Superior Court for Thurston County.

The first iteration of HIP was developed under a Washington State Department of Ecology grant from 2011 to 2015. At the end of that pilot period, the City conducted an extensive program evaluation. Findings from this evaluation informed program improvements. A new and improved version of HIP was rolled out in spring of 2017. The new HIP area includes residential parcels draining to Lake Whatcom basins 1 and 2 in both the City of Bellingham and Whatcom County.

These are shoreline parcels, parcels draining to streams, and parcels with large lawns (high priority parcels). Other homeowners in the program area are offered lesser incentives through the HIP Do -It -Yourself (DIY) Native Landscaping Program (low priority parcels). On behalf of the City and County, the County requested assistance from the Whatcom Conservation District (District) to implement the HIP for both priority parcels and DIY native landscaping parcels by providing staff support.

Together, the County and the Agencies are the only parties to this Agreement and may be referred to collectively RECITALS This Agreement is based on the following relevant facts and circumstances: A. The parties are signatories to an Emergency Medical Services Agreement signed in 1984 (the "Original Agreement"). B. It is deemed to be in the best interests of the citizens of Whatcom County to have available fast and efficient emergency medical services; and C. Within areas serviced by Whatcom County fire agencies, it is often most efficient for the first response of such services to be provided by the local fire agency; and D. The Original Agreement has become outdated, and the parties wish to replace Interlocal Agreement for First Response Emergency Medical Services Page 1 of 26 • • the Original Agreement with a new agreement that more accurately reflects their respective roles and responsibilities. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Services. The Agencies agree to provide First Response Emergency Medical Services (the "Services") within the boundaries of the Agency on behalf of Whatcom County, as dispatched through the Prospect Fire Dispatch Center (the "Dispatch Center"). The term "First Response Emergency Medical Services" means such medical treatment and care which may be rendered to persons injured, sick or incapacitated in order to reduce the risk of loss of life or aggravation of illness or injury, prior to the arrival of Advanced Life Support ("ALS"). The term Services expressly include Basic Life Support ("BLS") transports, as needed for patient care. The Agencies agree to use the designated County -wide records management system ("RMS") for the collection of County -wide EMS data and the transmittal of patient care reports to the hospital. 2. Consideration. During the term of this Agreement, and as consideration for the Services provided by the Agencies, the County shall provide the Agencies with the following: 2.1 The County will assume and make payment, using EMS levy revenue, for the cost of all of the EMS calls transmitted from the Dispatch Center during their normal quarterly billing process. The Dispatch Center will bill the County directly for this payment. For the cities of Lynden and Bellingham, which were not covered by the Original Agreement, the County shall make a retroactive payment to cover such costs incurred by such cities starting January 1, 2017. 2.2 As agreed to in the Original Agreement, the County will continue to make payment, using County revenue other than the EMS levy revenue, for the cost of the Fire dispatch calls transmitted from the dispatch Center during their normal quarterly billing process, except for the cities of Lynden and Bellingham, which were not covered by the Original Agreement. 2.3 If at such time during the term of this agreement, the Whatcom County EMS Executive Oversight Board and the Whatcom County Council, agree to pay for all of the Fire dispatch calls transmitted from the Dispatch Center, using EMS levy revenue, such payment will include the cost of all of the Fire dispatch calls, including the parties of the Original Agreement and the cities of Lynden and Bellingham. 2.4 The County will provide, at its sole expense by use of EMS levy funds, a County- wide RMS for the collection of County -wide Fire/EMS data and the transmittal of patient care reports to the hospital. The RMS software shall be from a vendor that is jointly agreed upon by the Whatcom County Fire Chiefs Association, the EMS Technical Advisory Board, and the County. The designated RMS shall be made available for use by the Agencies as determined in the RMS vendor agreement. 3. Term of Agreement. Notwithstanding the date of signatures, the term of this Agreement shall commence on January 1, 2018 and shall continue through December 31, 2022. The Parties covenant to meet no later than June 1, 2022 to discuss and negotiate in good faith toward a renewal of this Agreement or a successor agreement that provides for the services and funding for services contemplated by this Agreement. Interlocal Agreement for First Response Emergency Medical Services Page 2 of 26 100 3.1 The Parties may mutually agree to re -open the contract for renegotiation of any of its terms based on changed circumstances. 3.2 Concurrently with the commencement of the term of this Agreement, the Original Agreement shall be terminated; provided, however, that the County's obligation to pay for dispatch calls prior to such termination shall survive the termination of the Original Agreement. 4. Assignment/Subcontracting. The Agencies shall not assign or subcontract any portion of the Services without obtaining the prior written approval of the County. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the County recognizes that fire districts throughout the state are actively engaging in regionalization efforts in order to improve efficiencies while reducing duplication and associated expenses in order to better serve their citizens. In recognition of this fact, the following regionalization efforts shall not be deemed an "assignment" or "subcontract" requiring prior approval by the County: (i) the Agency enters into an interlocal agreement with another Whatcom County fire district to provide EMS services to it or (ii) an Agency merges or creates a Regional Fire Protection Service Authority with another Whatcom County fire protection district. 5. Relationship of the Parties. The Agencies are not now, nor have ever been, an agent of the County. The parties do not intend to have an agency relationship arise from this Agreement. Rather, the parties intend that an independent contractor/county relationship will be created by this Agreement. The County is interested only in the results to be achieved. The implementation of, and control of, the Services shall lie solely with the Agencies. No agent, employee or representative of the district shall be deemed to be an agent, employee, or representative of the County. No agent, employee or representative of the Agencies shall be paid by the County or receive any of the employment benefits normally given to County employees by the County. 6. Indemnification. To the extent permitted by law, each party agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from any and all claims, costs, including reasonable attorneys' and expert witness fees, losses and judgments arising out of the negligent and intentional acts or omissions of such party's officers, officials, employees and volunteers in connection with the performance of the Agreement. The provisions of this section shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement and the Restated ILA. 7. Insurance. The Agencies shall carry professional liability insurance for the duration of this Agreement in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00. Each Agency shall also carry a Commercial General Liability Insurance Policy in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00. Each Agency shall name the County as an additional insured on its CGL Policy, and each Agency's CGL policy shall be deemed primary and non-contributory. The County's insurance shall not serve. as a source of contribution, except as excess to the coverage provided by the Agencies. An agency may maintain a program of self-insurance and excess coverage with and to the same effect as the commercial coverage described hereinabove as a means of meeting the requirements of this paragraph. None of the foregoing policies or programs shall be cancelled or amended on less than thirty (30) days' notice to the County. 8. Compliance with RCW 39.34.030. This Agreement does not create a separate legal or administrative entity and does not require a joint board. No real or personal property will be jointly acquired pursuant to this Agreement.

These requirements apply to grants and cooperative agreements EXCEEDING $100,000 in total costs (45 CFR Part 93). The undersigned (authorized official signing for the contracting organization) certifies, to the best of his or her knowledge and belief, that: A. No Federal appropriated funds have been paid or will be paid, by or on behalf of the undersigned, to any person for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a Member of Congress, an officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress in connection with the awarding of any Federal contract, the making of any Federal grant, the making of any Federal loan, the entering into of any cooperative agreement, and the extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of any Federal contract, grant, loan, or cooperative agreement. B. If any funds other than Federally appropriated funds have been paid or will be paid to any person for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a Member of Congress, an officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress in connection with this Federal contract, grant, loan, or cooperative agreement, the undersigned shall complete and submit Standard Form-LLL, "Disclosure of Lobbying Activities," in accordance with its instructions.

C. The undersigned shall require that the language of this certification be included in the award documents for all subcontracts at all tiers (including subcontracts, subcontracts, and contracts under grants, loans and cooperative agreements) and that all subrecipients shall certify and disclose accordingly. This certification is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when this transaction was made or entered into. Submission of this certification is a prerequisite for making or entering into this transaction imposed by Section 1352, U.S. Code. Any person who fails to file the required certification shall be subject to a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and not more than $100,000 for each such failure. 4. CERTIFICATION REGARDING PROGRAM FRAUD CIVIL REMEDIES ACT (PFCRA) The undersigned (authorized official signing for the contracting organization) certifies that the statements herein are true, complete, and accurate to the best of his or her knowledge, and that he or she is aware that any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements or claims may subject him or her to criminal, civil, or administrative penalties. The undersigned agrees that the contracting organization will comply with the Public Health Service terms and conditions of award if a contract is awarded. 5. CERTIFICATION REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL TOBACCO SMOKE Public Law 103-227, also known as the Pro -Children Act of 1994 (Act), requires that smoking not be permitted in any portion of any indoor facility owned or leased or contracted for by an entity and used routinely or regularly for the provision of health, day care, early childhood development services, education or library services to children under the age of 18, if the services are funded by Federal programs either directly or through State or local governments, by Federal grant, contract, loan, or loan guarantee. The law also applies to children's services that are provided in indoor facilities that are constructed, operated, or maintained with such Federal funds. The law does not apply to children's services provided in private residence, portions of facilities used for inpatient drug or alcohol treatment, service providers whose sole source of applicable Federal funds is Medicare or Medicaid, or facilities where WIC coupons are redeemed. Failure to comply with the provisions of the law may result in the imposition of a civil monetary penalty of up to $1,000 for each violation and/or the imposition of an administrative compliance order on the responsible entity. By signing the certification, the undersigned certifies that the contracting organization will comply with the requirements of the Act and will not allow smoking within any portion of any indoor facility used for the provision of services for children as defined by the Act. The contracting organization agrees that it will require that the language of this certification be included in any subcontracts which contain provisions for children's services and that all subrecipients shall certify accordingly. The Public Health Services strongly encourages all recipients to provide a smoke -free workplace and promote the non-use of tobacco products. This is consistent with the PHS mission to protect and advance the physical and mental health of the American people. 6.

The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when the department or agency determined to enter into this transaction.

Emergency 60-Day Ordinance — Water Resources In response to the state legislature approving ESSB 6091, providing a long-term solution to the Hirst decision, staff has prepared an emergency ordinance relating to the use of permit exempt water withdrawals for development purposes. This has been prepared as an emergency ordinance so that the County can immediately comply with state law and process development permit applications dependent upon permit exempt wells consistent with the new law. Staff recommends that you adopt it on January 30, 2018 and schedule it for a public hearing on February 13, 2018. Staff would then prepare a final, permanent ordinance similar to this one to take through our standard public review and approval process within the next 60 days, prior to final GMA compliance proceedings before the Growth Management Hearings Board (GMHB Case No. 12-2-0013). This ordinance differs from the previous interim water resources ordinances in that, pursuant to ESSB 6091, hydrogeologic instream flow impairment analyses and mitigation are no longer required for new groundwater withdrawal applications. An applicant in WRIA 1 may now obtain approval for a groundwater withdrawal (a well) exempt from permitting under RCW 90.44.050 for domestic use only, with a maximum annual average withdrawal of three thousand gallons per day per connection. They must also pay a fee of $500 dollars ($350 of which the County must forward to the Department of Ecology), and must record any relevant restrictions or limitations associated with water supply with the property title. ESSB 6091 also contains provisions that immediately add to the County's watershed management work plan. The most noteworthy is that it directs the Department of Ecology to work with the initiating governments and the planning units described in chapter 90.82 RCW to update the WRIA 1 Watershed Management Plan by February 1, 2019 to identify the potential impacts of exempt well use, identify evidence -based conservation measures, and identify projects to improve watershed health. The Watershed Management Plan Update must include recommendations for projects and actions that will measure, protect, and enhance instream resources and improve watershed functions that support the recovery of threatened and endangered salmonids.

The Board found that these provisions result in water withdrawals from closed basins and senior instream flows —flows that the record indicated drop below the minimum levels 100 days out of the year. The Board properly held that this conflicts with the requirement placed on counties to protect water availability under the GMA..."; and, WHEREAS, Chapter 173-501 WAC Instream Resources Protection Program — Nooksack Water Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) 1 identifies waterbodies in Whatcom County that are closed or partially closed to further appropriation, by listing their status as "closure," "partial year closure," "low flow," or "minimum flow,"; and, WHEREAS, on October 25, 2016 Whatcom County adopted Ordinance 2016-048, an emergency moratorium on the filing, acceptance, and processing of new applications for project permits for uses that rely on permit -exempt groundwater withdrawals within a closed or partially closed basin, to allow the County time to review its Comprehensive Plan and development regulations in light of the Supreme Court ruling, and to draft and enact the necessary amendments as soon as feasible; and, WHEREAS, RCW 36.70.790 and RCW 36.70.795 allow for adoption of interim official controls as long as a public hearing is held within 60 days of adoption; and, WHEREAS, on December 6, 2016 the County Council adopted Ordinance 2016-066, an interim ordinance adopting amendments to the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and WCC Title 15, Title 20, Title 21, and Title 24 relating to water resources, which is effective until March 18, 2017, and the County has applied the provisions of the ordinance to project permit applications relying on new permit -exempt groundwater withdrawals; and, WHEREAS, on March 7, 2017 the County Council adopted Ordinance 2017-008, a second interim ordinance; and, Page 2 of 4 222 WHEREAS, on April 18, 2017 the County Council adopted Ordinance 2017-008, a third interim ordinance; and, WHEREAS, on October 10, 2017, the County Council adopted Ordinance 2017-057, a fourth interim ordinance, which is effective until March 30, 2018; and, WHEREAS, on January 18, 2018, the Washington State Legislature adopted ESSB 6091, which requires the Department of Ecology to work with the initiating governments and the planning unit in WRIA I to review existing watershed plans to identify the potential impacts of exempt well use, identify evidence -based conservation measures, and identify projects to improve watershed health. Until rules are adopted that specify otherwise, Section 202(5), which effectively reverses the Court's decision in Hirst, allows new domestic water uses in WRIA 1 that rely on groundwater withdrawals exempt from permitting under RCW 90.44.050, provided that applicants pay a fee of five hundred dollars to the permitting authority and limit their maximum annual average withdrawal of three thousand gallons per day, per connection, and record this limitation on the property title; and, WHEREAS, the amendments proposed by this ordinance are consistent with the aforementioned requirements of ESSB 6091 and are therefore consistent with the GMA, as specifically addressed in Section 102 of ESSB 6091; and, WHEREAS, ESSB 6091 was signed by Governor Inslee on January 19, 2018, and, pursuant to the emergency clause in Section 307, it became effective immediately as the Legislature declared that it was "necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing institutions ..."; and, WHEREAS, with the enactment of ESSB 6091, Ordinance No. 2017-057 is no longer necessary to ensure that Whatcom County is in compliance with state law; and, WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.40 of the Whatcom County Charter, an emergency ordinance "necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety or support of the County government and its existing institutions" may be passed by a two-thirds vote of the County Council and then take effect immediately upon the approval of the County Executive; and, WHEREAS, an ordinance adopted pursuant to Section 2.40 of the County Charter shall expire as of the sixty-first day following the date on which the ordinance became law; and, WHEREAS, it is necessary for this ordinance to take effect immediately in order for property owners to be allowed to proceed with their development plans forthwith and thus obtain relief from the impacts of Hirst; and, WHEREAS, in accordance with RCW 36.70A.106, Whatcom County Planning and Development Services notified the Department of Commerce of the proposed emergency interim amendments contained herein; and, WHEREAS, the County Council is scheduled to hold a public hearing on this ordinance on February 13, 2018; Page 3 of 4 223 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED that the Whatcom County Council adopts the above "WHEREAS" recitals as findings of fact in support of its action as required by RCW 36.70A.390. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that Ordinance No. 2017-057 is hereby repealed in its entirety upon the effective date of this ordinance.

BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that if a section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance is declared unconstitutional or invalid for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction; such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance, and if the provisions of this ordinance are found to be inconsistent with other provisions of the Whatcom County Code, this ordinance shall control. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED by the Whatcom County Council that the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and the Whatcom County Code are hereby amended, on an interim basis, as shown in Exhibit A.

Sec. 201. The definitions in this section apply 6 throughout this chapter unless the context clearly requires 7 otherwise. 8 (1) "Department" means the department of ecology. 9 (2) "Lead agency" has the same meaning as defined in RCW 10 90.82.060. 11 (3) "Water resource inventory area" or "WRIA" means a water 12 resource inventory area established in chapter 173-500 WAC as it 13 existed on the effective date of this section. 14 NEW SECTION. Sec. 202. (1) Unless requirements are otherwise 15 specified in the applicable rules adopted under this chapter or under 16 chapter 90.22 or 90.54 RCW, potential impacts on a closed water body 17 and potential impairment to an instream flow are authorized for new 18 domestic groundwater withdrawals exempt from permitting under RCW 19 90.44.050 through compliance with the requirements established in 20 this section. 21 (2) In the following water resource inventory areas with instream 22 flow rules adopted by the department under chapters 90.22 and 90.54 23 RCW that do not explicitly regulate permit -exempt groundwater 24 withdrawals and that have completed a watershed plan adopted under 25 chapter 90.82 RCW, the department shall work with the initiating 26 governments and the planning units described in chapter 90.82 RCW to 27 review existing watershed plans to identify the potential impacts of 28 exempt well use, identify evidence -based conservation measures, and 29 identify projects to improve watershed health: 1 (Nooksack); 11 30 (Nisqually); 22 (Lower Chehalis); 23 (Upper Chehalis); 49 (Okanogan); 31 55 (Little Spokane); and 59 (Colville). 32 (3) In the water resource inventory areas listed in subsection 33 (2) of this section, the lead agency shall invite a representative 34 from each federally recognized Indian tribe that has a usual and 35 accustomed harvest area within the water resource inventory area to 36 participate as part of the planning unit. Code Rev/ML:akl 5 5-4056.3/18 3rd draft 244 1 (4)(a) In collaboration with the planning unit, the initiating 2 governments must update the watershed plan to include recommendations 3 for projects and actions that will measure, protect, and enhance 4 instream resources and improve watershed functions that support the 5 recovery of threatened and endangered salmonids. Watershed plan 6 recommendations may include, but are not limited to, acquiring senior 7 water rights, water conservation, water reuse, stream gaging, 8 groundwater monitoring, and developing natural and constructed 9 infrastructure, which includes, but is not limited to, such projects 10 as floodplain restoration, off -channel storage, and aquifer recharge. 11 Qualifying projects must be specifically designed to enhance 12 streamflows and not result in negative impacts to ecological 13 functions or critical habitat. 14 (b) At a minimum, the watershed plan must include those actions 15 that the planning units determine to be necessary to offset potential 16 impacts to instream flows associated with permit -exempt domestic 17 water use. The highest priority recommendations must include 18 replacing the quantity of consumptive water use during the same time 19 as the impact and in the same basin or tributary. Lower priority 20 projects include projects not in the same basin or tributary and 21 projects that replace consumptive water supply impacts only during 22 critical flow periods. The watershed plan may include projects that 23 protect or improve instream resources without replacing the 24 consumptive quantity of water where such projects are in addition to 25 those actions that the planning unit determines to be necessary to 26 offset potential consumptive impacts to instream flows associated 27 with permit -exempt domestic water use. 28 (c) Prior to adoption of the updated watershed plan, the 29 department must determine that actions identified in the watershed 30 plan, after accounting for new projected uses of water over the 31 subsequent twenty years, will result in a net ecological benefit to 32 instream resources within the water resource inventory area. 33 (d) The watershed plan may include: 34 (i) Recommendations for modification to fees established under 35 this subsection; 36 (ii) Standards for water use quantities that are less than 37 authorized under RCW 90.44.050 or more or less than authorized under 38 subsection (5) of this section for withdrawals exempt from 39 permitting; Code Rev/ML:akl 6 S-4056.3/18 3rd draft 245 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 (iii) Specific conservation requirements for new water users to be adopted by local or state permitting authorities; or (iv) Other approaches to manage water resources for a water resource inventory area or a portion thereof.

RCW 90.03.247 and 2003 c 39 s 48 are each amended to read as follows: (1) Whenever an application for a permit to make beneficial use of public waters is approved relating to a stream or other water body for which minimum flows or levels have been adopted and are in effect at the time of approval, the permit shall be conditioned to: (a) Protect the levels or flows; or b require water resource mitigation of impacts to instream flows and closed surface water bodies for water resource mitigation pilot projects authorized under section 301 of this act. (2Z No agency may establish minimum flows and levels or similar water flow or level restrictions for any stream or lake of the state other than the department of ecology whose authority to establish is exclusive, as provided in chapter 90.03 RCW and RCW 90.22.010 and 90.54.040. The provisions of other statutes, including but not limited to ((RGW :-4.55.1-00 and)) chapter 43.21C RCW, may not be interpreted in a manner that is inconsistent with this section. In establishing such minimum flows, levels, or similar restrictions, the department shall, during all stages of development by the department of ecology of minimum flow proposals, consult with, and carefully consider the recommendations of, the department of fish and wildlife, the department of ( ( eeffimuiiit-, ;*adey and eeonemle de . ele m=-it) ) commerce, the department of agriculture, and representatives of the affected Indian tribes. Nothing herein shall preclude the department of fish and wildlife, the department of ((eemman' y, trade and esenemie ''eve'^_.....ent) ) commerce, or the department of agriculture from presenting its views on minimum flow needs at any public hearing or to any person or agency, and the department of fish and wildlife, the department of ( (eeffffaanityy tEade, and eeenemie Eevelapfaent) ) commerce, and the department of agriculture are each empowered to participate in proceedings of the federal energy regulatory commission and other agencies to present its views on minimum flow needs. Sec. 303. RCW 90.03.290 and 2001 c 239 s 1 are each amended to read as follows: (1) When an application complying with the provisions of this chapter and with the rules of the department has been filed, the same Code Rev/ML:akl 20 S-4056.3/18 3rd draft 259 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 shall be placed on record with the department, and it shall be its duty to investigate the application, and determine what water, if any, is available for appropriation, and find and determine to what beneficial use or uses it can be applied. If it is proposed to appropriate water for irrigation purposes, the department shall investigate, determine and find what lands are capable of irrigation by means of water found available for appropriation. If it is proposed to appropriate water for the purpose of power development, the department shall investigate, determine and find whether the proposed development is likely to prove detrimental to the public interest, having in mind the highest feasible use of the waters belonging to the public. (2)(a) If the application does not contain, and the applicant does not promptly furnish sufficient information on which to base such findings, the department may issue a preliminary permit, for a period of not to exceed three years, requiring the applicant to make such surveys, investigations, studies, and progress reports, as in the opinion of the department may be necessary. If the applicant fails to comply with the conditions of the preliminary permit, it and the application or applications on which it is based shall be automatically canceled and the applicant so notified. If the holder of a preliminary permit shall, before its expiration, file with the department a verified report of expenditures made and work done under the preliminary permit, which, in the opinion of the department, establishes the good faith, intent, and ability of the applicant to carry on the proposed development, the preliminary permit may, with the approval of the governor, be extended, but not to exceed a maximum period of five years from the date of the issuance of the preliminary permit. (b) For any application for which a preliminary permit was issued and for which the availability of water was directly affected by a moratorium on further diversions from the Columbia river during the years from 1990 to 1998, the preliminary permit is extended through June 30, 2002. If such an application and preliminary permit were canceled during the moratorium, the application and preliminary permit shall be reinstated until June 30, 2002, if the application and permit: (i) Are for providing regional water supplies in more than one urban growth area designated under chapter 36.70A RCW and in one or more areas near such urban growth areas, or the application and permit are modified for providing such supplies, and (ii) provide Code Rev/ML:akl 21 S-4056.3/18 3rd draft 260 1 or are modified to provide such regional supplies through the use of 2 existing intake or diversion structures. The authority to modify such 3 a canceled application and permit to accomplish the objectives of 4 (b)(i) and (ii) of this subsection is hereby granted. 5 (3) The department shall make and file as part of the record in 6 the matter, written findings of fact concerning all things 7 investigated, and if it shall find that there is water available for 8 appropriation for a beneficial use, and the appropriation thereof as 9 proposed in the application will not impair existing rights or be 10 detrimental to the public welfare, it shall issue a permit stating 11 the amount of water to which the applicant shall be entitled and the 12 beneficial use or uses to which it may be applied: PROVIDED, That 13 where the water applied for is to be used for irrigation purposes, it 14 shall become appurtenant only to such land as may be reclaimed 15 thereby to the full extent of the soil for agricultural purposes. But 16 where there is no unappropriated water in the proposed source of 17 supply, or where the proposed use conflicts with existing rights, or 18 threatens to prove detrimental to the public interest, having due 19 regard to the highest feasible development of the use of the waters 20 belonging to the public, it shall be duty of the department to reject 21 such application and to refuse to issue the permit asked for. 22 (4) If the permit is refused because of conflict with existing 23 rights and such applicant shall acquire same by purchase or 24 condemnation under RCW 90.03.040, the department may thereupon grant 25 such permit. Any application may be approved for a less amount of 26 water than that applied for, if there exists substantial reason 27 therefor, and in any event shall not be approved for more water than 28 can be applied to beneficial use for the purposes named in the 29 application. In determining whether or not a permit shall issue upon 30 any application, it shall be the duty of the department to 31 investigate all facts relevant and material to the application. After 32 the department approves said application in whole or in part and 33 before any permit shall be issued thereon to the applicant, such 34 applicant shall pay the fee provided in RCW 90.03.470: PROVIDED 35 FURTHER, That in the event a permit is issued by the department upon 36 any application, it shall be its duty to notify the director of fish 37 and wildlife of such issuance. 38 (5) The requirements of subsections (1) and (3) of this section 39 do not apply to water resource mitigation pilot Rrojects for which 40 permits are issued in reliance u. on water resource mitigation of Code Rev/ML:akl 22 5-4056.3/18 3rd draft 261 1 impacts to instream flows and closed surface water bodies under 2 section 301 of this act. 3 NEW SECTION.

These stakeholders included Facility Management staff, Sherriff Office staff, the Executive and Deputy Executive as well as the design team assembled by Design2Last. This project was originally created to identify and implement short term improvements to the jail facility, in anticipation for a new jail being built in the near future. There was substantial discussion of how the failed jail levy should/could affect the mid -range plan for the existing jail facility. It was determined that an expanded scope of work should be presented to the County Council for consideration. If approved, this work would be included in our initial construction phase for improvements to the jail. The consultant's work is broken into two types of work: 1) Items that would be immediately added to the scope of work for the current design project (currently under contract), and 2) Evaluation and Analysis Study items that would give clear information for future projects and possible improvements. 266 Please review the attached proposal, and outline of expanded scope items, for the Design2Last contract. Advise staff to move forward with all, or part, of the scope of work items defined in Design2Last's January 17t" proposal. Staff respectfully requests direction on the proposal for Tasks 1-20 as soon as possible. Direction on this portion of the proposal would allow the current project, already under contract, to continue to progress. Should the Council want additional time to considerer the "Evaluation and Analysis" items, these items could be discussed further at committee, if necessary. On November 8, 2017 the County Council approved the amended contract for Design2Last for Scoping, Design, and Project Management for improvements to the existing Jail. Based on the Design Charrette held on November 28, 2017, and in consideration that the Jail bond did not pass and the useful life of the existing Jail facility will need to be extended, Design2Last and Facilities Management are presenting this proposal to expand the current scope of work. ® Funding Amount and Source Adequate funds exist within the Capital Project Fund, expanded by $7,000,000 in the 2018 Budget.

Whatcom County then selected ten tasks to further refine in Phase 1 B with more detailed scope and costing. Whatcom County, following the recommendation of the team, then decided to proceed with design (Phase 2) and construction (Phase 3) of the scope options recommended in Phase 1 B (see Schedule'B'). A contract for Phase 2 and 3 design and CA services was executed on November 15, 2017. On November 28, 2017, the design2 LAST team conducted a design charrette in accordance with our contract. During that day -long meeting, we presented and discussed each of the scope options (see Schedule'B') being developed per our contract for design and construction. During that meeting we also had a conversation about the fact that the voters on November 8, 2017, for the second time rejected a bond to build a new Whatcom County Jail. The stakeholders (see meeting notes from the design charrette dated November 30, 2017 for attendees) wanted to discuss if, and how, that would affect the design2 LAST renovation work on the existing Jail. The existing Jail would now need to function over a longer period of time than the 5-7 year life -cycle identified at the start of design2 LAST's contract. Many existing system deficiencies, that were understood to be short term challenges, are now potentially bigger problems that will need to be addressed with equipment repair or replacement. The county's previous decisions to put off making major repairs to ongoing equipment breakdowns were revisited. Each of the issues identified during that meeting was documented in a list (see attached Schedule'A'). They were further refined in a meeting with Whatcom Facilities staff on December 7, 2017, and organized into categories at that time. Since then, those items have been further refined and detailed by our team and are presented in the attached Excel Workbook. This workbook defines each task, the anticipated deliverable, any exclusions, and is the basis for the enclosed fee proposal. In summary, our fees are presented thus: Items 1-20 were identified by Whatcom County as tasks that should be considered by County Council to add to our existing contract. (Items 2 and 20 were eliminated.) Thus, our fees are divided into the same tasks we presented for our current contract and can be added by addendum, with one exception: the schedule to add these new tasks will change to remove the electronic 50% over -the -shoulder review by the County, and replace it with a standard 35% design review. We believe the added scope warrants an earlier and full review of the entire scope with the County.

The State legislature has not moved forward on a fix for the Hirst Decision. Buchanan opened the public hearing, and the following people spoke: John Westerfield stated he is opposed to the moratorium. The average Nooksack River flow was drawn according to the median flow, not the average flow, which is inappropriate. Wells use little water, and most of it goes back into the ground. Brett Espy stated the County must support the rural landowners caught in the mess. The State legislature won't fix the problem. Explore the idea of fighting the Hirst Decision. Anton Karuza described the impact of the Hirst Decision on his property. Look at real science, not political science. Kathy Sabel stated she is opposed to the moratorium and they must all listen and compromise. Roger Almskaar stated he represents landowners who are impacted by the Hirst Decision. He supports net -zero mitigation. Include language that allows them flexibility as science advances. Karen Brown stated the water resources inventory area (WRIA) 1 Nooksack Basin has not been adjudicated, so senior water rights can't be determined. She does not support the ordinance. Review the rule of instream flow, which is wrong. Do not use Economic Development Investment (EDI) funding for anything related to water. Linda Twitchell, Building Industry Association, stated option 2 as described in the staff memo is the best option. Revisit the calculation for determining instream flow, which uses the median. Look at the minimum instream flow figure. Do not choose option 3. Have a public meeting in a rural area. Wendy Harris stated property rights aren't connected to water rights. There should be better disclosure about that when people buy property. The county is out of water and 276 Regular County Council Meeting, 10/10/2017, Page 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 DISCLAIMER: This document is a draft and is provided as a courtesy.

They must understand the strain on the water system and catalog what they have. Keep the ecosystem healthy. Robin Dexter stated he supports the staff option to pursue a local settlement. Hire a lobbyist or work with Department of Ecology to rationalize the water rights database and achieve water rights banking. Find out what water they have and figure out how to measure water use. Get started on a comprehensive solution. Max Perry stated the Council can begin adjudication activity. They have water, but they don't know how much. Begin mitigating for the water. Todd Bell described the impact of the Hirst Decision on his property and stated the cities shouldn't be able to expand and grow if they're out of water. The intent of the decision is to stop development, which is a government taking. Jay Markarian stated he is in the process of calculating how much rain there is and how it's used. Limiting growth this way will prevent other social services. Protect the citizens. Stan Levinson described the impact of the critical areas ordinance on his property. Mary Beth Teigrob stated she is opposed to government regulations on private property. Hearing no one else, Buchanan closed the public hearing. Weimer moved to adopt the ordinance. The motion was seconded. Councilmembers discussed the beneficial uses of wells; the City of Bellingham putting unused water into the bay; protecting the people in Whatcom County, especially if they have a vested permit; the County's efforts to fight the lawsuit; the decision from the Supreme Court; solutions from mitigation and lobbying state legislators; the impact of adjudication making things worse; the need for compromise; abiding by the rule of law and honoring the councilmembers' oaths of office; and setting aside politics during an election cycle to focus on people who are suffering due to the Hirst Decision.

Too much bacteria is going into the marine waterbodies. The PIC program addresses all the sources of bacteria. Partnerships are required to solve the source problems. An online resource shows historic data collected. The PIC program allows them to reach out to people and give them tools needed to make changes. The Health Department is working on source problems from septic systems. The solutions are working. Whatcom County has 37 percent of all the livestock in Puget Sound. The Conservation District implements a voluntary stewardship program. Trusting relationships with the community are necessary. There are several programs to assist landowners. The Health Department notifies property owner to complete the operations and maintenance for their onsite septic systems. They hope to inspire voluntary compliance through a cultural shift. In the last two and a half years, over 12,000 inspections were done. Compliance is defined as completing the system status evaluation. Kim described the results of the OSS inspection programs. They continually review and streamline the process. With recent changes, they receive higher quality evaluations.

The County Assessor was required by law to reduce the 2017 property tax levy described in the county's 2017 tax levy ordinances by recovered amounts related to the BP Refinery Tax appeal. The adjustments reduced individual funds' tax levies as follows. General Fund ($505,148.07) Road Fund ($688,884.09) Conservation Futures Fund ($18,703.98) Flood Control Zone District ($60,218.92) Total ($1,272,955.06) This was a one-time adjustment intended to repay all taxpayers for the impact of the BP Refinery tax appeal on taxpayers' 2014-2016 property taxes.

As the Executive Director of the Whatcom Dispute Resolution Center (WDRC), I believe there is much I can continue to add as a Community Action Agency Representative. With a mission of providing and promoting constructive and collaborative approaches to conflict through mediation, training, facilitation, and community education, the WDRC has a rich 23 year history of serving Whatcom County. Our programs and services touch the lives of many — from youth participating in diversion programming, to parents experiencing divorce, to individuals wanting to build their communication skill set. Our services are assisting schools to reduce out of school suspensions, helping parents stay connected to their children, and complimenting those provided by the Courts - successfully serving to divert cases off the dockets, saving the courts time and resources, and empowering community members to resolve their own disputes effectively. There is a natural alignment with our services and the intent of this task force. The WDRC understands the value of restorative justice, and currently offers a host of restorative practices to the community and our local schools. We have experimented with adult restorative practices and are interested in exploring how we could further support the expansion of these and similar practices throughout the community. As a member of Resolution Washington, the National Association for Community Mediation, and the Association for Conflict Resolution, we are well situated and connected to programs across the state and country that are tackling the same issues and concepts we are grappling with in Whatcom County. For the past 2 years I have served on the Task Force, providing input and offering assistance. I would be pleased to continue to support the work of the task force, and continue to help move this important work forward. Thank you in advance for your consideration of my application. I can best be reached at director@whatcomdre.org or 360/676-0122 x 110. 1 look forward to hearing from you.

Co -Authored the "Stop Punishing Taxpayers, Start Rebuilding Community" 2015 Taxpayers Report that provided a roadmap to county non -profits and leaders to illustrate that solutions are available to downsize the jail demand, that could build our workforce, and rebuild our community relationships and neighborhoods. Attached is a new document that illustrates how the economy is affecting people who get arrested and punishing them in extreme ways that most of the public and even our officials do not understand, since you don't know the impact unless you have been through the system. I would like to work with the various organizations, officials and citizens of Whatcom County to implement justice reform locally, to reduce the stress and trauma that comes from arrests,to help implement restorative justice, mental health alternatives and do what it takes to stop the poverty and arrest cycles, so that we can help people get back to work successfully. I thought that there was a position available on the IPRTF to serve as a community action agency representative, and I would prefer being appointed as that position if possible, so that I can represent the citizens who have no voice.

I also bring a good deal of knowledge about Ferry Ridership, not considered costs to Riders, Community and County, Lost Revenues, Future Projections, and Protection of Working Age Families. My aim is to increase knowledge to all concerned so we can get better decisions on this all important topic. The Task of LIFAC, especially at this time, is a huge undertaking for the 7 members to properly accomplish. I would strive to involve more people, especially volunteer Marine Professional Mariners and other ideas by use of Citizen Subcommittee's to evaluate individual topics, so more can get done. I am very familiar with current LIFAC actions as I attend almost all of their meetings, when I was on the Ferry Task Force, I never missed a meeting. I also know how to get a lot done by complementary use of people's time, knowledge and resources, as was done in the Ferry Task Force and the Ferry Replacement Sub -Committee. Other Ferry Systems have made bad decisions on this Ferry issues with disastrous consequences that continue on for decades. It is of utmost importance that we need to get the improvements to our Ferry System done properly, especially the replacement of the Vessel. We cannot afford to make a mistake on this, it is too important to the well being of both the Islanders and Mainland County Citizens and Taxpayers. I can help with this issue, please consider my application.

That work has led to the Ferry System Improvement Project, which is now fully under way. The need for this effort has been apparent for some time, and I am so enthusiastic about how it has developed with positive contributions from everyone. I have contributed continuity, engagement, benefits of my transportation operations background, and some objectivity to efforts that paved the way for the next chapter of Whatcom County's ferry system. I'd simply like to continue that effort to advance the Project for another term.

Please describe why My family Pas been in the real estate business in Vancouver, you're interested in BC for many years, and has always been involved in local serving on this board or government. My uncle was on the planning committee in commission Vancouver, and my grandfather was the mayor of his city in England. I have developed a strong interest in community planning and growth from these two people, and i hope to continue the tradition of local government involvement. In my spare time i enjoy reading the different city's comprehensive plans, and zoning maps. I like to compare past maps with current ones to see how things have changed, and come up with my own scenarios for how i think things should be to benefit the community. Having some insight on the issues with Vancouver's housing market and land availability gives me a different perspective and helps me learn from their mistakes. As a young 23 year old, i hope this can be the start of my journey with our local government, and community involvement. I know there is still a lot to learn, but i believe that at my age i can provide insight and ideas from a demographic that often times goes unheard or isn't interested in local issues. I have close relationships with people that hold opposite political views than me, and ones with very similar views as well. This helps me try and approach everything with a mutually beneficial mindset. I am a strong believer that our nation is only as strong as the communities that form it, and I want to do my part to try and help our community come together and grow in ...._.................. ............. a sustainable manner.

As a non-profit, skater run league, we each had specific jobs within the league. I organized the bouts, a virtually day long event 6 or more times a season. This included coordinating with people in the community and other committees within our league. We were able to put on such events with help from volunteers and the general public, which was also a place in which I was in charge of reaching out to gain and commend volunteers for their work. I have an education from our own Western Washington University with a Bachelor's in Geology. I gained more than just facts about rocks and minerals from my education, but a general understanding of the landscape around Whatcom County and the PNW.

I feel I would be a very useful, productive and enlightening point of view on this commission that would work hard to continue to better our community. I care about the decisions made in our county and how the affect the people here. I want to be a voice in the conversation so that no person or community is left out in the resolutions made for all of us.

Butenschoen 1542 Westview PI Lynden, Wa 98264 chadbutenschoen@me.com 360-224-4710 INTEREST Whatcom County Planning Commission EXPERIENCE BP General Shop Technician — Bellingham, Wa Tech 5 2008 - Present In Shop While working in the General Shop I have performed various tasks and roles throughout the Cherry Point Refinery. My main role as a technician was to perform routine maintenance work in the process units while following all safety and work guidelines. I also became a crane operator and have spent many hours operating equipment, which plays a significant role into the policy's and procedures aspect of BP for the fact that you need to always be aware of changes. Out Of Shop I have performed many roles outside of the Maintenance Dept. which include: 0 2011 - 2013 (Hydrogen Unit Maintenance Planner) During this period I was responsible for many different crafts and companies, all working on getting the unit back to operating conditions. My role as a planner was to budget, order materials, set schedules and provide contract companies there work for the T/A. During the Turn Around I was the lead for over 6 different companies averaging 1-200 people per night while troubleshooting any issues that arise. 0 2014 - 2015 (Maintenance Planning) I would take work that individual units had and create work packages for the General Shop technicians to use to complete that work. Working with coordinators, engineers and inspectors I would use the information to create a work plan for each individual job that technicians could use to do day to day maintenance activities in the refinery. • 2015 (Safety Committee Chair) I was elected by a group of my peers in the safety committee to be the president of the group for the year of 2015. This group consists of around 100 people who are from a broad range of crafts around the refinery. This group was responsible for new ideas in safety compliance and ensuring that the whole site had resources available to them regarding safety. • 2015 (Co -Founder and Chair of Veterans Business Resource Groin) This role was created by our Business Unit Leader/Plant manager when he realized that Cherry Point did not have a Business Resource Group for Vets at this site. I volunteered to help out and soon found myself as the lead and establishing the group not only at an onsite level but nationally as well. We worked to provide resources to employees and the local community through volunteer work and setting up booths at job fairs for veterans leaving the military for the private sector. Once the group was established and the vision for the future =10 was clear, I turned the lead over to a governing board and eliminated the chair position entirely. • 2015 - 2016 (Contract Compliance Officer) It is of utmost importance to BP that people working within our industrial facilities are competent when conducting work activities and do all they can to reduce risk to themselves, other people, assets, and the environment. As such BP created a pilot role in which my responsibility was to audit contract companies on the contracts they already had with BP at their Cherry Point refinery. Just like the Veterans BRG this was a new role they brought to this site. I was responsible for not only building the mission statement, job description and implementation plan, but establishing communication with the Contract Companies and beginning the Audit process. During my time in this role I audited 5 different contract companies on many different topics including, ensuring each employee has a clear job description that reflects what that employee is doing onsite, vehicle and equipment maintenance and record documentation, employee training and proficiency of both team and staff positions, code of conduct, how they on -board employees and ensuring on -boarded employees review and understand BP entity HSSE requirements. Once the audit process was completed my focus turned to making a clear After Action Report that was turned into the Contracts Governance Board and training the staff level BP employee that would be taking over the role for the future. • 2016 to Present (NCE Planning) Plan and Oversee all Non Cycle Ending maintenance work needed to be completed during a given units shutdown. I control the work process from discovery, engineering and inspection details, parts and labor and seeing the work through from a personnel control aspect as well. Matrix - Bellingham, WA Multi -Craft October 2005 - 2008 I performed many jobs including constructing concrete forms, helping to build metal structures and platforms by fabricating panels and beams and assisting with assembly. I performed maintenance work as well as doing many T/A's at different locations on bundle crews. Cajun Construction — Baton Rouge, LA Concrete Worker April 2005 - May 2005 This company drilled large holes in the ground to be filled with concrete for building foundations. My job was to monitor and measure the depth of the holes during the drilling process. United States Army — Fort Bragg, NC Airborne Infantry/RTO October 2001 - October 2004 In the U.S. Army I served in B. Co 1/504 Parachute Infantry Regiment. I MGM was stationed out of Fort Bragg, NC but also did two tours overseas in both Afghanistan in early 2002 and Iraq in 2003. My duties changed according to location, in Afghanistan I was a machine gunner in an infantry squad as we performed combat missions along the Pakistan border to stop the insurgency from jumping borders. I was then promoted to Company RTO and served in Iraq communicating between company and battalion ranks as well as calling in artillery and Close Air Support while at the same time performing my duties as an infantryman in a combat zone..I developed a unique ability to perform under pressure and lead people even in overwhelming circumstances. .

The final report documented differences in amphibian use of the wetland types, discussed the efficacy of effort -constrained dip -netting, and made recommendations for wetland projects. Selected Technical Papers and Presentations Habitat use and performance of Oregon Spotted Frog (Rana pretiosa) larvae at ponds and emergent wetlands of the Samish River Preserve, Whatcom County, Washington, and response to a habitat enhancement project.

I bring the professional skills to occupation (or former research, read, update and properly interpret local, state and occupation if retired), federal statutes, case law and administrative regulations that qualifications, are relevant to wildlife issues to ensure the county is in professional and/or compliance with appropriate laws and policies. I continue to community activities, and educate myself through webinars, seminars, agency website education review and case law research. I am also skilled at researching scientific studies that comply with the definition of Best Available Science. While I am not a scientist, I research and understand the science regarding wildlife conservation and am fully conversant and able to participate in discussion on wildlife matters with consultants, professors, field biologists, etc. I have worked with professionals in the context of conservation science at the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office as a member of the urban wildlife committee, where we reviewed and rated grant applications from around the state. I stopped doing that only because the meetings changed from telephone conferences to meetings in Olympia. Most of my fellow committee members were wildlife professionals. I was a member of the Market Place of Natural Resources pilot project for parts one and two and fully participated in the process. I was a member of the Planning Commission Ad Hoc Committee on LID stormwater practices and wildlife mitigation. It was here that I really learned the nuts and bolts of watershed based analysis and review through a detailed study of the Birch Bay Characterization Pilot Project. I served on the citizen advisory committee for almost two years, where I focused on Critical Area Ordinance issues. I collaborated with some members of the technical advisory committee. I participated in the Planning Commission review and the County Council review, often providing citation to Best Available Science and relevant law. I have provided informed comment on many issues in this community regarding the GMA, the SMA, Lake Whatcom, Comprehensive Plan updates, SEPA review, the marine ecosystem and all manner of land use regulation. I have also written articles on these topics and used to have a monthly column in the our local nonprofit environmental newspaper, The Whatcom Watch, which was entitled, "No Net Loss." I was the first person to be awarded the annual Paul deArmond Citizen Journalism Award. Because of my interest and drive, my background exceeds that of a layperson and therefore, I request appointment to the technical committee. This is supported by my references, who are conservation professionals that have worked with me. 10.

Nadine, This is to confirm that my late application was inadvertent based on processing problems with the application and or website. I tried to work on the application last night (1.8.18) and it kept kicking me off before I was finished. This application process is new to me. I also tried again today and continued to have problems until I called your office and after speaking with you realized that I had to create an account to prevent that from happening. So my deadline problems were based on technical issues in processing the application. I think it is also worth noting that due to health issues that affect my hands, I have problems typing and it takes me longer than an average person to type something. That could one reason I had more difficulty than others as I was likely being kicked off more often. Apparently, if you hit the wrong button, which I frequently do, you get bumped out immediately. Thanks for your time and assistance this afternoon. If there is any way to include this with the other applications under these circumstances, that would be appreciated. If not, I understand.

The communications plan includes five key focuses, including developing a social media presence, increased distribution of electronic newsletters, and integration of all web - based communications. Joan is executing the plan in close collaboration with the executive director and board of directors. Puget Sound Lost Crab Pot Preven.ti.on. Plan. Development, NW Straits Foundation, WA Joan (prior to joining NRC) led the development of a comprehensive Puget Sound Derelict Crab Pot Prevention Plan for the Northwest Straits Foundation. The process involved bringing together an Advisory Committee of key stakeholders including marine industry, commercial state and tribal crab fishermen, recreational crabber associations, vessel transit authorities (US Coast Guard, etc.), MRC representatives, and agency personnel. The Advisory Committee was convened twice: first to agree upon the impacts of lost crab pots in Puget Sound and the reasons for loss and second to agree upon recommended actions to be achieved in three years to greatly reduce impacts from lost crab pots. The process included heavy emphasis on preparing the Advisory Committee with pre -meeting homework. A focused online survey was developed and executed between meetings to elicit expert recommendations. The plan was completed in June 2016 and the Northwest Straits Foundation is currently coordinating plan implementation. Marine Conservation Program Development, NW Straits Foundation, WA. As former Programs Director with the Northwest Straits Foundation, Joan developed and directed three successful marine conservation programs: the Northwest Straits Initiative's internationally recognized Derelict Fishing Gear Program; a comprehensive Nearshore program focused on on- the- ground restoration, monitoring (including citizen science), and social -science directed outreach to shoreline landowners; and a Marine Resources Committee (MRC) support program providing technical, project, and fiscal management assistance to the seven citizen -based county MRCs in the Northwest Straits region. Programs development always included initial gap analysis and an assessment of where the Northwest Straits Foundation could achieve its greatest impacts. Program development included gradual restructuring of staff, including adding a derelict fishing gear program intern, a Nearshore Program Manager, and focused assignments of staff as liaison to each MRC. With these developments, funding strategies and strategic work plans were developed consistent with the organizations Strategic Plan. Upon Joan's departure from the Foundation, all three programs were fully operational and funded for up to three years in future. Shoreline Armoring Reduction Program, NW Straits Foundation, WA Joan directed the development and implementation of an incentive -based program to reduce shore armor along the nearshore of Puget Sound. The program resulted from a state -funded social science -based analysis of barriers to private landowners' removal of unnecessary shore armor. The program built on current projects of the Northwest Straits Foundation and partners to educate landowners about shoreline processes necessary to sustain nearshore habitat functions in PugetSound. The program includes four key incentives: free educational workshops, free technical site visits to provide landowner site -specific management recommendations, free engineered armor removal designs, and cost -shared permitting for shore armor removal. Additionally, the program commits the Northwest Straits Foundation to assist in finding funding for shore armor removal on participating landowners' parcels for up to two years. Piloted in in the Port Susan Bay area in 2012 with funding from WDFW/DNR Marine and Nearshore Grant Program, the project is now a regional model and was expanded throughout the Northwest Straits N.L �I �� ` Joan Drinkwin Page 3 MIVRY..A4 FNOVRC S CA)INA'ITAN'I:S, INC 454 counties. It has succeeded in reaching more than 1,000 shoreline landowners, providing site visits on over 60 sites, and succeeded in achieving landowner willingness to remove unnecessary shore armor along significant stretches of shoreline. Cornet Bay Nearshore Restoration Project, Areas 4, 6, and. 7, NW Straits Foundation, WA Joan managed the on -the -ground design and restoration of 750 feet of beach at Cornet Bay day use area of Deception Pass State Park. This project was initiated in 2007 by the Island Marine Resources Committee and State Parks to improve nearshore habitat for salmon and forage fish spawning along an altered section of the shoreline in Cornet Bay. Joan took over managing the project for the Marine Resources Committee once the construction design was funded. She managed the finalized design, hired contractors, managed the permitting, public outreach, and construction. Additionally, she promoted the project to funders and succeeded in obtaining full construction funding from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board, Department of Natural Resources, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. In all a creosote bulkhead stretching along 750 feet of the beach was removed, 1200 tons of beach spawning gravel was brought in, and native vegetation planted to create a more natural shoreline. Over 800 linear feet of shoreline and 1.24 acres of beach and upland were restored.

I have personally witnessed the increase in wildlife numbers in my lifetime in this area including protected species but see how practices are not always equally applied between rural and agricultural spaces.

Formative experiences across the Pacific Northwest sparked my conservation career, which formally began during an internship with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. By 20111 earned a role with the Downeast Salmon Federation in rural Maine, where I helped to coordinate, prioritize, and communicate major projects to restore the endangered Atlantic salmon. Translating complex science and policy with clear, actionable storytelling was central to our aims for community -based stewardship, and 1 served as a key ambassador allying diverse stakeholders for watershed health. Due to my strengths as a mentor and naturalist, I also helped recruit, train, and supervise volunteers and interns for a citizen - science project monitoring rainbow smelt habitat. When I returned West in 2014, I became a Board Member of the Natural History Network, for whom I convened a regional event that connected emerging and experienced naturalists in North Cascades National Park. I complemented my freelance writing with Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association's Stream Restoration internship, part-time work as a Land Steward, and seasonal employment with Fourth Corner Nurseries. With our local chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society, I became active in a citizen -science project monitoring flower and bumblebee emergence in eastern Whatcom County. This role helped me succeed as a contractor assisting Whatcom Land Trust, and in 2016 I co -developed educational wildlife phenology programming around field walks, a lecture series, a BioBlitz, and content for a blog that I developed through a master's degree in creative writing. As part of that degree, I also initiated a Communications Internship with the North Cascades Institute, and I earned the Ethel Grady Church Scholarship for establishing key relationships between higher education and our nonprofit conservation community. I've recently worked seasonally as a Botanist on the Olympic Peninsula, supporting the 10,000 Years Institute's multi -stakeholder, cross jurisdictional project that manages invasive plants and restore native biodiversity. Since returning to Bellingham in October 2017,1 have provided coordination and leadership as a co-founder of Whatcom Beaver Partners, an independent citizens' working group advancing beaver conservation and coexistence. I am currently searching for stable conservation work, and the right job may require my relocation from Whatcom County. But if the WAC can accept that possibility, I will be thrilled to further the WAC's goals as long as I am here. I am incredibly passionate about Whatcom County wildlife, knowledgeable in the concerns of Whatcom County's Comprehensive Plan, and eager to pursue solutions for our common future. With nearly a decade of developing relevant experience from nonprofit, higher education, government, and small business settings, I see WAC service as a chance for me to grow as an strategic, informed conservationist while collaborating on our complex, intriguing, and critical wildlife issues. My wide connections relevant to local wildlife species, conservation trends, and management stakeholders will make me a compassionate WAC contributor, and my technical expertise in beavers will deepen the WAC's commitment to our biodiverse, abundant water supply. I can be available for an interview soon, and can be ready to begin WAC service immediately. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to hearing from you.

Please describe your COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES RELEVANT TO THIS occupation (or former COMMITTEE: Co -Chair of League of Women Voters of occupation if retired), Washington Climate Action Toolkit Committee. The interactive qualifications, toolkit can be found at: www.lwvwa.orq/ Former League of 2 561 professional and/or Women Voters of Bellingham/Whatcom County Advocacy community activities, and Chair: Guided 30+ volunteers in lobbying for League positions education on eleven topics, from the Environment, to Healthcare, to Voter publicity. Wrote League statements and testified at Whatcom County, and Skagit County and Ecology EIS hearings, and wrote several EIS statements for the Washington State League of Women Voters. Worked on League Election Forums for the last four years. This year I worked with a group of three other League members to develop the unbiased questions used at all Forums and was one of two people screening and rewriting audience questions at the Mt. Baker High School Forum to assure that they were unbiased/civil. EDUCATION: BA in English with teaching certification (Bronze Tablet for top 2% scholastic achievement) and Honors MA in English/American Studies, University of Illinois at Champaign -Urbana (Elected to Phi Beta Kappa) EMPLOYMENT: Retired Whatcom Community College Faculty. Among my activities: Developed Writing Across the Curriculum and Interdisciplinary Studies programs (Team Taught Interdisciplinary Humanities and a team taught sequence integrating science, social science and humanities), leading to presentations at colleges within Washington State, at University of Texas, Austin and at the International Teachers of English conference in Heidelberg, Germany as well as a Humanities Association Award. Led faculty in development of Learning Outcomes in all disciplines in the College. Served as President and/or Chief Negotiator for the Whatcom Community College Federation of Teachers several times. 10. Please describe why Why I Would Like to Serve on the Environmental Impacts you're interested in Advisory Committee Although not a scientist by background, serving on this board or my work as Co -Chair the League of Women Voters of commission Washington's Climate Action Toolkit committee has familiarized me with recent research, including that completed (and ongoing) by the Washington Department of Ecology and the University of Washington's Climate Impacts Group. This interactive Toolkit, designed to educate League members and their communities may be accessed at www.lwvwa.org/ Then click on "Climate Action Toolkit" in the right hand column. I was excited to learn that the county is seeking to review its ten year old Climate Action Plan including "climate change mitigation and impact prevention, adaptation, and preparation goals." This is precisely what one section of our interactive Toolkit was devoted to, although it obviously was broader than Whatcom County. When setting targets to reduce greenhouse gases and other climate change effects, the committee should review all related materials by the Department of Ecology and our outstanding research institutions on the predicted effects of 562 Climate Change on Western Washington and Bellingham in particular and on how local government can best deal with them. Getting a grasp of federal priorities will also be important, but will be a bit more difficult: several of the federal documents we included in the League Toolkit, have been replaced by pages saying that the original postings are being revised. While Whatcom County will be affected by all aspects of climate change, rising/surging seas, ocean acidification, and changing heat and precipitation patterns, with attendant water distribution/equity problems (exacerbated by predicted continuing drier summers, less mountain snowpack and diminished glaciers) will be among the thorniest problems facing the county. A December, 2017 article in Nature reports that an unstable Antartica could double current estimates of sea surge, increasing the urgency of taking action. We should examine all advice, especially of Washington scientific and governmental institutions, to determine the most effective preventative/mitigative actions: What actions should we be taking to protect vulnerable people, property, businesses and infrastructure? As to the county's water problems, perhaps Washington State University's two recent Water Symposiums, which I attended, may provide material and contacts to build on. I would like to see the county develop information exchange opportunities among our diverse citizenry and to hold sharing sessions to educate community members in all parts of the county on the impacts of climate change and of possible ways to mitigate/ adapt to them. All ideas should be listened to. My background as an educator and chief negotiator of several negotiated agreements between faculty and the Board of Trustees at Whatcom Community College (while maintaining cordial relations with then President Harold Heiner and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Pat Hite) should help me work on the educational charge to the committee involving people with a variety of agendas, and, perhaps, sometimes hostile groups or individuals . My work on local League of Women Voters Candidate Forums for the past three years will also be helpful. Although I was out of the country for the first forums this year, I worked with three other League members on formulating the neutrally worded questions used at all of the forums and was one of two people at the Mt. Baker High School Forum rewording audience questions to make them meet the standards of civility. There is much research available on advances and practicality of renewable resources, which is being revised on an almost daily basis. Given current knowledge and scientific predictions, a key question is " Beyond what is already being done, what should the County be doing to encourage renewables, and how can we do more than qive lip service to a iust transition for displaced workers and businesses?" The West Coast, and Whatcom County Washington, are particularly well poised to become leaders in green industries. We already have small solar and water turbine industries. Why not more of these, along with wind, and even geothermal? Dead ends? Maybe not with the right support! Listening sessions with workers who fear loss of their jobs and coordination with local unions could be beginning points for a just transition. I would bring intelligence; a healthy skepticism of authoritarian pronouncements; a good lay knowledge of Climate Change and ways to mitigate it; an ability to access important current studies, and to analyze and evaluate the validity of resources; experience in leading discussions and drawing people out; and an ability to use data/facts to open minds and to persuade.

This interactive Toolkit, designed to educate League members and their communities may be accessed at wwwIwwa,oW/ Then click on "Climate Action Toolkit" in the right hand column. I was excited to learn that the county is seeking to review its ten year old Climate Action Plan including "climate change mitigation and impact prevention, adaptation, and preparation goals." This is precisely what one section of our interactive Toolkit was devoted to, although it obviously was broader than Whatcom County. When setting targets to reduce greenhouse gases and other climate change effects, the committee should review all related materials by the Department of Ecology and our outstanding research institutions on the predicted effects of Climate Change on Western Washington and Bellingham in particular and on how local government can best deal with them. Getting a grasp of federal priorities will also be important, but will be a bit more difficult: several of the federal documents we included in the League Toolkit, have been replaced by pages saying that the original postings are being revised. While Whatcom County will be affected by all aspects of climate change, rising/surging seas, ocean acidification, and changing heat and precipitation patterns, with attendant water distribution/equity problems (exacerbated by predicted continuing drier summers, less mountain snowpack and diminished glaciers) will be among the thorniest problems facing the county. A December, 2017 article in Nature reports that an unstable Antartica could double current estimates of sea surge, increasing the urgency of taking action. We should examine all advice, especially of Washington scientific and governmental institutions, to determine the most effective preventative/mitigative actions: What actions should we be taking to protect vulnerable people, property, businesses and infrastructure? As to the county's water problems, perhaps Washington State University's two recent Water Symposiums, which I attended, may provide material and contacts to build on. I would like to see the county develop information exchange opportunities among our diverse citizenry and to hold sharing sessions to educate community members in all parts of the county on the impacts of climate change and of possible ways to mitigate/ adapt to them. All ideas should be listened to. My background as an educator and chief negotiator of several negotiated agreements between faculty and the Board of Trustees at Whatcom Community College (while maintaining cordial relations with then President Harold Heiner and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Pat Hite) should help me work on the educational charge to the committee involving people with a variety of agendas, and, perhaps, sometimes hostile groups or individuals . 565 My work on local League of Women Voters Candidate Forums for the past three years will also be helpful. Although I was out of the country for the first forums this year, I worked with three other League members on formulating the neutrally worded questions used at all of the forums and was one of two people at the Mt. Baker High School Forum rewording audience questions to make them meet the standards of civility. There is much research available on advances and practicality of renewable resources, which is being revised on an almost daily basis. Given current knowledge and scientific predictions, a key question is " Beyond what is already being done, what should the County be doing to encourage renewables, and how can we do more than give lip service to a just transition for displaced workers and businesses?" The West Coast, and Whatcom County Washington, are particularly well poised to become leaders in green industries. We already have small solar and water turbine industries. Why not more of these, along with wind, and even geothermal? Dead ends? Maybe not with the right support! Listening sessions with workers who fear loss of their jobs and coordination with local unions could be beginning points for a just transition. I would bring intelligence; a healthy skepticism of authoritarian pronouncements; a good lay knowledge of Climate Change and ways to mitigate it; an ability to access important current studies, and to analyze and evaluate the validity of resources; experience in leading discussions and drawing people out; and an ability to use data/facts to open minds and to persuade. Thank you for your consideration. 566 COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES RELEVANT TO THIS COMMITTEE: Co -Chair of League of Women Voters of Washington Climate Action Toolkit Committee.

The majority of the work I do is as a technical writer for BP Cherry Point, where I help write and edit documents related to site safety and environmental policy. I meet with experts from different technical fields and consolidate their input to help produce documents that are easy to understand and which comply with industry and governmental standards. Previously I've worked as a writing center tutor, taught university classes in rhetoric, and as a Campaign Assistant for United Way. Qualifications As part of the Watershed Masters program through Washington State University, I learned from and worked with people in various sectors in Whatcom County (including loggers, biologists, farmers, and local business owners) to help improve watershed health. I've also taken classes in environmental science and policy, and published numerous articles on environmental issues, including interviews with environmental activists and journalists like Elizabeth Kolbert and Bill McKibben, and a feature article in Cascadia Weekly on stewardship of Bellingham Bay. Through my varied work and education, I've gained an understanding of the need for coordination and cooperation between environmental and social advocacy groups, the public and private sectors, private citizens, labor advocates, and more to create and implement sustainable environmental policy. Community activities • Helped design, coordinate, and hold a public workshop on watershed health. • Gave a talk at Whatcom Museum on ways individuals can engage in water conservation. • Participated in a pilot project with Whatcom County government to seed native clams in Birch Bay. • Worked with local high school students to survey an area of the Bellingham Bay shore for creosote. • Worked with the Interfaith Coalition to serve food on a weekly basis to those in need. Education I received my BA in the Comparative History of Ideas from the University of Washington, where I learned a lot about the value of interdisciplinary work. I also have a Master's Degree in Creative Writing and know the importance and efficacy of a well -crafted narrative in advocacy work. NEXT PAGE 581 Please describe why you're interested in serving on this board or commission A few years ago I took a post -baccalaureate class in US Environmental Policy at Western. My final assignment was working with a group of my peers to assess the efficacy of the Washington State Growth Management Act. I found it fascinating to study the law itself, as well as how it had been implemented in counties across the state. During other parts of the class I also encountered the idea that public policy is unsustainable without the public's backing. This further catalyzed my pursuit of writing as a profession — the idea that in order to successfully advocate for something, it must be made relevant to the lives of others. My genuine interest in others allows for meaningful dialogue and action, and I'd like to serve my community by putting these skills to use. 582 NaDean Hanson From: noreply@civicplus.com Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2017 11:30 AM To: Ben Glassett; Jill Nixon; Suzanne Mildner; Kristi Felbinger; Dana Brown -Davis; Executive; NaDean Hanson Subject: Online Form Submittal: Board and Commission Application Board and Commission Application Step 1 Application for Appointment to Whatcom County Boards and Commissions Public Statement THIS IS A PUBLIC DOCUMENT: As a candidate for a public board or commission, the information provided will be available to the County Council, County Executive, and the public.

Experience Western Washington University BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Academic Support Coordinator, Student Outreach Services July '17 —present The Academic Support Coordinator is a member of the Student Outreach Services Team who partici- pates in a full range of retention efforts. The primary purpose of the Academic Support Coordinator is to facilitate academic advising/coaching, academic intervention, cultural/social integration, and outreach to traditionally underrepresented and non-traditional students. This position is responsible for providing academic support for American Indian and Alaska Native students to help students transition to Western, meet their goals, overcome personal challenges and achieve academic success. Northwest Indian College BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Director, TRiO Student Support Services September '15 —July '17 The Director has oversight of the TRiO Student Support Services program and is responsible for budget authority and grant management as well as program design and execution. The Director provides supervision, recruitment, and training, of the program staff, and determines student eligibility and intervention strategies. Further responsibilities include service as a liaison between NWIC and partner institutions (such as the Campus Community Coalition) to identify opportunities for graduating students to enter graduate and professional programs and other community service opportunities. Northwest Indian College BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Academic & Career Advisor for Sciences September '14 — September '15 As an advisor, I worked with predominately American Indian and Alaska Native students within the Native Environmental Science discipline and provide necessary direction and mentorship to ensure adequate educational planning for the student's intended program of study as well as providing assistance to students in understanding degree requirements, planning schedules, and monitoring satisfactory academic progress. Further duties included serving as Native Environmental Science faculty, with specific instruction in Climate Change, Political Ecology, and Indigenous Philosophies. io The Plural Knowledge System PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Philosophy Jan q4 —May '14 Criticisms of Western institutional knowledge often stem from similar criticisms of positivism and falsifiablility. A focus on the emergent properties of traditional ecological knowledge, more specifi- cally indigenous knowledge systems, can utilize multiple ways of knowing, allowing for intercultural incorporation of both empiricism and rationalism through intercultural social construction. Plural reconstruction as an analytical method incorporates several epistemologies, and limits cognitive dissi- dence and bias through practical conflict resolution. Navigating the Tribal IRB Process PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Outreach/Extension Dec 13 —Apr q4 The Belmont Report includes special considerations when dealing with research in American In- dian/Alaska Native populations. While each tribe is supposed to review research and assess the beneficence and risk, in practice several tribes have neither a standing research ethics committee nor institutional review board (IRB). By utilizing multiple tools and audio/visual media, tribal members and non -tribal members alike can access knowledge which contains pertinent information and may also serve as a training platform for future native researchers interested in quickly understanding the design, purpose, and function of an IRB. Currently serve on the NWIC IRB for AIHEC and Lummi Nation & Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. ESE Keystone Series PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Facilitator/Marketing Director Jan q2 —Apr q3 Discussion -based series to address relevant interdisciplinary topics of High -Volume Shale Gas Extrac- tion and the KeystoneXL Pipeline, drawing from interdisciplinary knowledge -bases within Purdue University. Combined scholarly literature review, within physical and social science disciplines, to inform discourse regarding public policy grounded in evidence and multiple perspectives that are otherwise mediated by popular press and political outlets. Facilitation includes open -space discus- sions, external media resources, and invited panelists representing diverse perspectives, to inform and encourage discussion amongst multiple interest groups and stakeholders. Determing the Socially Optimum Price of Water PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Environmental Policy Analysis Oct q2 — Dec'12 This study identifies and quantifies the externality of greenhouse gas emissions in the residential water supply and waste water treatment in West Lafayette and assigns an adjustment of the marginal price for water to reflect the costs of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The summer and winter municipal supply and demand analysis was conducted as an econometric study based on consumption and price data supplied by Indiana American Water Company for residential use. The socially optimum price for water and waste water, based on EPA estimates of GHG production, was calculated to be $10.01 per 1000 gallons of water used, both for summer and winter. AI/AN Perceptions of Climate Change in Newsprint PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Media Content Analysis Jan'12 —Sep q2 Very little literature exists which details how climate change impacts Indian Country. This study investigates how US newspaper stories published from 1991 to 2011 present American Indian/Alaska Native (Al/AN) perceptions, and observations, of environmental changes resulting from climate change. Several specific risks, impacts, and vulnerabilities were documented, and observations of climate change from AI/AN perceptions were analyzed for content to identify three frames of perspective: pan -Indian, tribally -specific, and individual perceptions. Water Balance & Adaptive Management in Water Crisis Cities PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Transdisciplinary Analysis Feb'12 —May q2 Through a case study of Phoenix and Mexico City metropolitan areas, this project seeks to identify resiliency factors correlative to the available water supply. An ecohistorical context is utilized to identify how past climate changes and social pressures led to collapse. A water balance for each city was calculated to determine its hydrological footprint. This project also highlights how a water balance is also useful in city planning and water management systems. 650ppm: Climate Vulnerability Assessment of Costa Rica PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W. LAFAYETTE, IN Risk Analysis Sep 'I 1— Dec q 1 This study seeks to identify and evaluate climate change impacts, risks, and vulnerabilities of Costa Rica using complex climate change model simulations and simpler modeling tools. Based on multiple projected emissions schemes, this study explores the policy, ethics, and methods to reduce carbon emis- sions (and consequence of business -as -usual action) utilizing several strategies including a corporate carbon tax, compounding restrictions based on corruption and social -iniquity indexes to protect poor and marginalized populations, and market -based emissions reduction instruments. -M Deer & Sugar Creek Water Management Program PURDUE UNIVERSITY, W.

CosTA RICA Editorial/Cultural Exchange May '11—Jun '11 As climate changes lead to rising temperature and fluctuations in precipitation, the indigenous peoples of Costa Rica must find ways to adapt to novel events in both recorded and oral histories. I spent two weeks with the Bri Bri and Maleku peoples, living and learning with them in their respective environments. Part of the time I was learning about the local ecosystems, while the rest of the time was spent helping the community to build gardens, construct schools and sanitary facilities, all the while sharing my own native culture and experience. Operation: Get Better HIND, LAWRENCE, KS Project Director/Facilitator Aug '10 —July 11 As a long-term Clinton Global Initiative commitment to action, Operation: Get Better was a crowd - sourced program to develop student -led wellness initiatives at Haskell Indian Nations University including: "The Big Idea' wall, fruit tree planting, campus clean-up, adopt -a -freshman program, music videos, and IT initiatives, as well as planting organic gardens and building sanitation facilities in indigenous communities in Costa Rica Student Senate HINU, LAWRENCE, KS President Aug '10 — May 11 Served as Student Body President and was effective as the chair of the organization where students may serve their interest and govern those affairs that directly and primarily affects them: promoting leadership, academic growth, and excellence in affirming the rights of every student.

Please describe your My current occupation is a process engineer at the BP Cherry 2 595 occupation (or former Point Refinery. This job means that I sit on the `front lines' so to occupation if retired), speak of climate control. In my day to day job I am responsible qualifications, for ensuring safe and environmentally compliant operations by professional and/or monitoring & adjusting operations at the refinery. When done community activities, and well people in my position can and do have a significant impact education on climate change, for example: • During an upset I was able to quickly study process and environmental data and used unit knowledge to request changes which were able to cut emissions for this event in half. • Recommended process changes which can be made to minimize emissions from day to day operation through intimate unit knowledge and experience. • Study causes of recurring unit upsets and have been able to figure out how to prevent problems which are the largest source of emissions. Educationally I have a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from Michigan State University. While at Michigan State I studied alternative energy and climate change and had one professor in particular who had a profound impact on my life and career. He taught me that every form of alternative energy has both its' pros and cons and the careful study of both is the only way that our society as a whole will move forward and solve the greatest problem of our lifetime. For example he showed me that although capturing energy from waves seems free if it is not carefully implemented it can change the way the ocean's function enough where it can be devastating to ecosystems. I am highly involved in our community and have a passion for doing everything I can to make this community as great as it can be. To help our community I am currently the lead chair of the Bellingham Kiwanis young professionals group which is a satellite of the main Kiwanis club. As lead chair I organize numerous service events per year supporting a wide range of community service organizations such as Lydia Place, Cloud Mountain farms, Salvation Army, ARC of Whatcom county, DVSAS, Opportunity council, RRAD amongst many others. Last year our organization donated several hundred hours of our time to help make the community a better place and I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to serve as the leader of this wonderful organization. I have recently started becoming more involved in local politics mostly by attending several county council meetings and speaking out on topics that are important to me. I am extremely excited about becoming more and more involved in what is going on and being a part of the process of improving quality of life in our community. 10. Please describe why I have a strong personal conviction that my great purpose in life you're interested in is to have a significant impact on what I believe to be the serving on this board or largest single challenge currently facing our society, that being commission global climate change. I have carefully picked my education, 3 596 work -place and interests to put me in a position where I can and do have a personal impact on climate change on a regular basis. I think the next step in my journey is to become more involved in alternative energy and climate change policy and regulation. I think my background sets me up perfectly to be successful as a part of this board because I understand how climate policy is implemented in the real world and so I think I can do a great job of helping to recommend change that will have a truly beneficial impact. I have a passion for smart climate control techniques that involve all parties from multiple perspectives and think that is the only way we will actually solve the great problems we face. I am ready to serve the community as a part of this board. I think my life events have built up to this, and can't wait to be considered.

WHY I'M INTERESTED IN THE CLIMATE IMPACT ADVISORY COMMITTEE Dear County Council Members, I believe I have a unique and valuable perspective to offer this committee and I'm extremely motivated to do this work. I grew up in rural Montana, but have spent the last 13 years building a family and life here in Bellingham. In the last few years my wife and I have made a serious commitment to reducing our own climate impact and it's been incredibly satisfying. Some of the things we've done include commuting by bicycle, giving up vacation air travel, producing all of our power via solar, changing our diet, and generally consuming less. In our circle of friends, we are known and respected as mavens in the climate change space and, frankly, if feels damn good, I am also the founder of www.permanentptanet.com, an online carbon footprint calculator that allows families and individuals to easily determine their own footprint and, most importantly, evaluate what changes in their lifestyle would make the biggest impact. It's been shared by Bill Mckibben at 35o.org! I built the online toot specifically for my family as we transitioned to a lower impact lifestyle. The research, data analysis, and healthy skepticism necessary for this work was right in my wheelhouse. In short, I'm the guy to help juggle the data, science, and disparate incentives of all the interested parties and tease out where we can realistically spend our energy and resources to have the biggest impact. I am a pragmatic, get it done kind of leader who knows how to stay out of the weeds and focus on achievable results. Every committee needs a few of those and I'd love the opportunity to serve.

Please describe your For the past year and a half I have been working in various occupation (or former capacities for The Mountain Pact, an environmental advocacy occupation if retired), non-profit. The Mountain Pact works with local elected officials qualifications, and chambers of commerce in rural mountain communities 2 643 professional and/or throughout the Intermountain West. We work to inform and community activities, and enhance the voices of these communities in the federal education climate, conservation, and public lands policy arena. My work with The Mountain Pact has included communications and outreach, as well as town recruitment and hiring. Working with The Mountain Pact has given me a developed understanding of the federal climate change conversation, and I would like to be able to apply what I have learned by working within my community to address this growing problem. Additionally, I am currently a candidate to receive my M.A. in Environmental Studies with a focus on Environmental and Water Policy from Western Washington University. Through this program I have been able to focus on the human factors related to climate change, conservation, and energy policies. Prior to beginning my masters candidacy at WWU I received training and education in ecological and biological field work. This background along with my background in environmental and climate change policies combined with my current focus at WWU provides me with a unique perspective with which to approach the duties of this advisory committee. 10. Please describe why I am interested in serving on the Climate Impact Advisory you're interested in Committee for a variety of reasons. It is important to address serving on this board or the need for preparation and mitigation of the prevention and commission adaptation to climate change impacts. Doing so at the local level is one of the best ways to address climate change impacts and I would like to be involved with Whatcom County's efforts to do this. Having recently moved to Whatcom County I have the desire to become more involved with this community, and to help the county achieve the goals laid out by the Climate Action Plan. As discussed in my answer to the previous question, I have a unique background that would allow me to provide useful insight into how Whatcom County can best address the impacts of climate change. By working together at the local level we can accomplish a lot, and build solid momentum in a positive direction. I would like to be a part of this momentum.

Please describe why you're interested in serving on this board or commission References (please include daytime telephone number): Signature of applicant: Place Signed / Submitted University. There I studied in depth policies including the economic mechanisms behind cap and trade and carbon taxes. I was also given a chance to look at city design, climate action plans, and the history of U.S environmental policy. I collaborated with UC Davis, PSE, and several other institutions to design an energy investment plan for Western. I have extensive research, economics, and policy experience. Outside of school I volunteer for trail restoration and spent the last 6 months working on Bellingham's storm water management facilities which gave me a good look at the hands on mitigation of climate change we are already participating in. In my free time I read up on the latest environmental/sustainability news. I keep updated with the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and have looked over the climate action plans of several cities including Bellingham. I have also reached out to local businesses to assist in reducing their footprint as part of my overall belief that we are all responsible for maintaining sustainable lifestyles. 2-3 times a month I write articles about our community for Whatcom Talk. I am interested in serving on the Climate Impact Advisory Committee because I love my community and can think of no better way to service it than offer up my expertise on climate science and policy to help improve the goals and progress of the county. If anything, I am looking for an excuse to keep researching new methods of mitigation and management, so that I can pass this information onto those that can use it to influence positive change. I want to see the best for my planet, and the best for my community, and I think lending my mind to this committee is a great way to bring about that change.

No No No RMueller CV 2018 climatecouncil.pdf I am a Physical Oceanographer who investigates the dynamics of how ocean heat is melting the Antarctic Ice Sheet. This research is important because the poleward transport of ocean heat has become both the primary driver of Antarctic mass loss 656 2 professional and/or and the primary source of uncertainty in predictions of the rate community activities, and of future sea level rise. The ocean and ice interaction that I education investigate occurs along the Antarctic coastline, beneath floating shelves of the ice sheets that extend hundreds of kilometers out to sea and link the atmosphere, ocean, and ice in a dynamic and integrated system that has been impacted by humanity and will impact our societies in the centuries to come. 10. Please describe why I like helping communities grow stronger, together, by engaging you're interested in in meaningful work and creating pathways that connect people serving on this board or to accurate information that can help foster right action. My commission experience working in four different scientific fields has helped me establish worldwide connections across multiple disciplines that I have utilized toward better understanding the nuances of climate change when they extend beyond my expertise. I'm keen to utilize this experience and these connections toward helping empower Bellingham toward growing its available resources, prosperity, community, innovation and leadership. We have all the pieces within our community to create positive impact, and I want to do my part in helping us utilize our strengths toward overcoming the adversities of climate change.

We worked to design customized monitoring programs to measure ambient water conditions and harvest plume conditions at numerous sites. The work also included characterizing the hydrodynamics of the sites using field data collection and hydrodynamic modelling. My role was to coordinate directly with Taylor Shellfish staff for times and sites to conduct monitoring, and create monitoring systems, such as barge mounted oblique aerial photography systems to capture plume generation and progression during geoduck harvests. Annacis Island Waste Water Treatment Outfall Diffuser; Delta, British Columbia I was the project manager for a salinity and water density monitoring program in the Fraser River near Annacis Island. The work was conducted for Metro Vancouver to support designs for a new waste water treatment outfall. This site posed a unique challenge for meeting initial dilution zone requirements. The challenge is during low river flows in the winter, the salt wedge would progress up to the site. The presence of the salt wedge created a density gradient that would reduce vertical mixing of the outfall with the ambient water. I designed a data collection program to track and monitor the salt wedge presence at the site (or so we loving termed it, salt wedge hunting). My role included coordinating with Port of Vancouver staff to obtain permits to conduct sampling and install a temporary seabed frame at the project site. Additionally I designed the data collection program to help meet regulatory requirements to capture the worst case salt wedge conditions. The data collection included frequent conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) profiling at select locations, and installation of continuously monitoring salinity, temperature, turbidity, and current meters. I led the onsite data collection efforts, data analysis, reporting, and budget management. Environment Canada Waste Water Outfall Dispersion Modelling; Multiple Sites, British Columbia I assisted with data collection, review and support for outfall dispersion modelling for first nation's communities done on behalf Environment Canada. The project involved building an understanding of characteristics of wastewater management systems and to characterize most likely failure scenarios using a dispersion modeling approach. My role was to provide background metocean and environmental conditions as input to dispersion modeling calibration, verification, and production simulations. D-Island Water Quality Monitoring System, Agip KCO; North Caspian Sea, Kazakhstan Early in my career at Golder I took on a lead role in developing and maintaining an experimental near -real time air and water quality monitoring system installed on D-Island in the North Caspian Sea, Kazakhstan. The system was designed to meet regulation requirements for the offshore drilling and production site. I was responsible for system design, instrument selection, monitoring, maintenance, and operation of a near -real time water quality monitoring station. Monitoring included preparation of monthly reports of verified data, and ongoing data quality control. I provided on -site technical support for recovery, maintenance and field calibration of the station. I assisted with the certification and inspection of instrumentation and water quality station with the Kazakhstan governing agency. As I became more experienced I took on a role of providing onsite training and troubleshooting to local Kazakhstan office employees. Water quality parameters measured included: salinity, temperature, depth, turbidity, chlorophyll fluorescence, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, dissolved oxygen, hydrocarbons, and particulate size and concentration. Fish Habitat Remediation and Design; Multiple Projects in British Columbia I was involved in multiple projects in British Columbia to design wetland and fish habitat as part of remediation work for projects required to build habitat compensation. The scope of work included assessment of existing data, summary of design criteria, sea level rise assessment, 2D modelling of overwash and coastal erosion, and design and construction planning for complex habitat sites for salt marsh establishment and forage fish habitat. My work was collaborative with ecologists and biologists to create a habitat design of appropriate location and elevation to allow for establishment of local species, while maintaining elevations and grain sizes appropriate for the hydrodynamic conditions at site to ensure a design life of 25 years. Rich Passage Wake Impact Study, Fast Ferries Program, Kitsap Transit; Puget Sound, Washington The Rich Passage Wake Impact Study is a multiyear program that Golder has been involved in to support the study and monitoring of high speed ferry wake effects along shoreline properties and to communicate with communities and stakeholders. My role included beach photograph documentation to monitor beach sediment elevation relative to shore protections and bulkheads, gravel tracer monitoring, wake wave measurements, noise monitoring, and attending community information sessions. The data collection contributed to monitoring shoreline erosion during fast ferry trial runs. University of British Columbia -Point Grey Cliff Erosion Study; Vancouver, British Columbia The Point Grey cliff erosion study was undertaken on behalf of the University of British Columbia to provide a review of existing conditions of the cliff slope, and beach, potential implications of sea level rise, and to make recommendations toward mitigating the erosion using sustainable practices. I assisted with the study objectives which included desk based data review of geotechnical conditions, wave and wind climate, a water level and sea level rise analysis, and the design recommendations. Small Craft Harbour- Effects Assessment of Breakwater on Wave Climate; British Columbia Coast I was involved in a desktop evaluation of a timber breakwater for a small craft harbour. The work involved an assessment of functionality and effectiveness of the structure. The end result was to advise the local government on how to proceed with the breakwater and to create a flyer to inform the community of the recommendation. My role involved gathering and reviewing available literature, site specific data, and historical aerial photographs. The assessment included evaluation of nearshore wave conditions using fetch analysis, wave diffraction, attenuation estimates, summarizing recommendations, and flyer design. Shoreline Assessment and Classification for Proposed Marine Offloading Facility; Prince Rupert, British Columbia I conducted a shoreline assessment of a proposed marine offload facility site. The shoreline assessment consisted of grain size assessment and characterization of the intertidal foreshore. Some of the shoreline consisted of bedrock cliffs and inaccessible sites, so boat based monitoring methods and photogrammetric survey was used to capture the shoreline. The results of the photogrammetric survey was to characterize the slope stability and grain size of the project site, as well as classifying the shoreline. ••• aa1,� �:[�I7aTi7 :[SZ VA" ARihINT97�Zel'1 Strait of Georgia Current Circulation Study at a Deep Water Waste Water Outfall; Vancouver, British Columbia I was the project manager for a data collection program for Metro Vancouver to measure current circulation in the Strait of Georgia near a deep water waste water outfall in approximately 80 to 100 m water depth. My role included coordination with Canadian Coast Guard to issue notices of the temporary tautline mooring installation and data collection program. I led the field data collection, analysis, and reporting. Multiple Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Terminal Investigations; Multiple Sites, Canada I worked along the British Columbia coast (Howe Sound, Prince Rupert, Kitimat), and in Nova Scotia collecting meteorologic and oceanographic data for port and terminal design for proposed LNG facilities. Much of the work consisted of coordinating with provincial and federal government agencies to obtain permits to deploy monitoring stations, such as seabed mounted frames, tautline moorings, surface buoys, and meteorologic stations to measure wind, waves, currents, general water properties (temperature, salinity, turbidity, pH, dissolved oxygen, and chlorophyll - a), and surface sediment sampling. My role was through all phases of the program. I was involved in permit application, field logistics and coordination, first nations technical training, instrument calibration and procurement, safety planning, field collection, data processing, analysis and reporting, and project management and budgeting. Examples of some of the instrumentation I used are: RTK GPS, Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP), Acoustic Wave and Current Profiler (AWAC), real time TRIAXYS wave and current buoy systems with satellite telemetry, water quality sensors (e.g. YSIs, RBRs, Seabird Electronics, JFE Advantech turbidity monitors), and ponar sediment samplers. Lake Tanganyika South Block Physical and Biological Baseline Studies, Beach Petroleum; Tanzania I worked as a field engineer for the physical baseline study data collection program to provide measurements of surface waves, currents throughout the water column, wind speed and direction, and water properties including conductivity, temperature, depth, turbidity, chlorophyll fluorescence, and photo synthetically active radiation within the Lake Tanganyika south block oil and gas exploration lease for Beach Petroleum. The program required the procurement, deployment, servicing, and recovery of two surface riding wave buoys and two multi -parameter tautline moorings in water depths of approximately 300 and 500 meters. I took on an extra role to repair damaged junction boxes for the solar panels that had been tampered with. 670 Wec v)�G= NaDean Hanson A, OV41� From: noreply@civicplus.com Sent: Friday, December 22, 2017 9:07 AM To: Ben Glassett; Jill Nixon; Suzanne Mildner; Kristi Felbinger; Dana Brown -Davis; Executive; NaDean Hanson Subject: Online Form Submittal: Board and Commission Application Board and Commission Application Step 1 Application for Appointment to Whatcom County Boards and Commissions Public Statement THIS IS A PUBLIC DOCUMENT: As a candidate for a public board or commission, the information provided will be available to the County Council, County Executive, and the public.

I serve on the Steering professional and/or Committee for the statewide Alliance for Jobs & Clean Energy community activities, and and help organize the local Blue -Green Waterfront Coalition. education I've attended numerous conferences and summits focused on climate change and energy, including the COP23 in Paris. Two years ago, I read Whatcom County's 2007 Climate Protection and Energy Conservation Action Plan and observed that it was no longer up to date with the technologic and economic conditions of the present day. At that time, in the midst of also reviewing the County's Comprehensive Plan updates with an eye towards climate adaptation and sustainable energy, I suggested that the council establish a citizen advisory committee to review the 2007 plan, assess if our goals are being met, create an updated plan, and make policy recommendations to achieve the goals. Thankfully this idea is now being realized. 10.

Forward - thinking planning in the county's jurisdiction is vital for adapting to the consequences of greenhouse gas pollution and predictable climactic changes. Going further, Whatcom County has potential to become an exemplary leader among worldwide efforts to make the clean energy transition swift, just, and equitable. The complexity of responding to climate change responsibly, for a municipal government, demands an accountable, collaborative public process. Though not an expert by any means, I have a broad foundational knowledge of issues around climate and energy, with a well-rounded network of change -makers in policy and alternative energy industries. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I'm adept at research and critical analysis. Through serving on the committee, I would aim to facilitate input from local stakeholders and outside experts, procure reports and guest presentations, seeking to find solutions where they exist. My priorities are to ensure that the committee's process is inclusive, productive, and ambitious.

Please describe your I currently work for the Tulalip Tribes Natural Resource occupation (or former Department as an Environmental Scientist. My position is occupation if retired), primarily focused on reviewing, developing, and implementing qualifications, the technical aspects of regional salmon recovery policy. Much 2 WYE professional and/or of our work on salmon recovery is focused on climate change, community activities, and from sea level rise, to ocean acidification, flooding, and marine education survival. I serve on the Snohomish Basin Salmon Recovery Technical Committee as Co -Chair. We recently published an issue paper on how climate change impacts salmon and salmon recovery strategies, and developed a number of adaptation strategies to address the anticipated impacts of climate change (see resume/CV). I also a serve in a leadership position developing Tulalip Tribes Climate Change Adaptation Plan. We are currently in the early stages of drafting the plan. I am deeply familiar with regional climate change assessments, including the work of the Climate Impacts Group at the University of Washington, and many other regionally specific scientific reports related to climate impacts such as sea level rise, ocean currents, hydrology/flooding/drought, snow pack, wildfire, sediment transport, ocean acidification, marine food web dynamics, erosion, beach armoring, and water rights issues. I am familiar with other non -ecological impacts such as flood and stormwater management, infrastructure development, critical area ordinances, human health effects, and anticipated challenges and opportunities for agriculture. I would like to contribute more to my community. Thus far, my contributions have been limited to professional activities, as well as educational public presentations. This opportunity will be an ideal way for me to contribute locally in an impactful way. I have a bachelors and masters degree in Biology from Western Washington University, where I studied biological impacts of land use on streams in Whatcom County. I think my scientific expertise and conservation values will add an important element to this committee. 10. Please describe why Since completing graduate school at WWU I've enjoyed you're interested in building a career with a number of tribal communities just south serving on this board or of Bellingham. Initially I started working for a tribe because commission tribes are a major employer in the natural resource field in the area, so the opportunity was simply available. I also did not want to leave my home in Bellingham. I greatly appreciate the opportunities the tribes have given me, as well as the wisdom they continue to teach, and values of community and conservation they continue to inspire. When we plan for managing natural resources, we plan 7 generations into the future. If our modern society in the greater USA would do this, we would be in a much better position to combat climate change and preserve the resources we all depend on. While these values may occasionally conflict with the drive for economic development at times, the economy, and the economic well being of the people of Whatcom County is compatible with native conservation values.. l believe we can 3 705 develop our society with intelligence and foresight, so that our great grandchildren can thrive like our great grandparents. We are making steps in the right direction, and I would like to volunteer my education, knowledge, and experience to help guide us into the future. After working my way through two degrees and beginning to cultivate a successful career, I am ready and enthusiastic to serve my community in the capacity of a volunteer member of the climate impact advisory committee.

I recently completed my Masters at Western Washington University and created a Climate Justice Field Manual which can be downloaded for free at climatejusticenow.earth. What I have learned is that it is imperative that our governmental bodies (local, state and national) take bolder action on climate change. I have had extensive training on climate education and advocacy with The Climate Reality Project and have a thorough depth of understanding on the topics related to climate change, including impacts and solutions. I am currently working with a team on a Fossil Free Bellingham Resolution which calls for 100% renewable by 2030, and this process which research into what over 60 cities are doing across the country is furthering my understanding of the scope of the solutions. I feel that I could make sound recommendations to the Council on policy and budget priorities as well and guidelines for addressing climate impacts. I can also recommend targets that put us on a path to a livable future, which it is essential to have a target to work towards that is based on the current science. Also, I can help with strategies on public engagement and effective climate communication for citizens. My references are listed below as they didn't fit on my application clearly.

Please describe your occupation I work as a cartographer, making maps on a range of subjects for a variety of (or former occupation if retired), clients. Through this work, I have a good sense of the complex relationships qualifications, professional and/or between demographics, landuse, transportation networks, and other civic community activities, and education infrastructure. Knowing how to design and interpret maps and work with geographic data seems very relevant when it comes to advising on decisions about how invest in our pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. I have a masters degree in Geography from the University of British Columbia, and an undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon. I am a graduate of Sehome High School in Bellingham. I was born and raised in Bellingham, so I appreciate and understand the unique character of our region. But I've also lived and cycled in larger cities such as San Francisco and Vancouver that have more variety of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure than we do here in Whatcom County. I look forward to taking what I've learned in other cities and finding ways that we can adapt it to the different needs of our county. I have been a member of the bicycle advocacy groups in San Francisco (SF Bike Coalition) and Vancouver (The HUB), and I recently joined the Walk Bike Bus Bellingham group. In other civic volunteering activities, I am the co-founder of FairVote Washington, a non -partisan electoral reform group. This gives me experience in knowing how local government works, and how it can discover innovative ways to serve its citizens more effectively and efficiently. 10. Please describe why you're Improving Whatcom's bike and pedestrian infrastructure is directly relevant to my interested in serving on this board or life. As someone who lives in unincorporated Whatcom County (in the Squalicum commission Valley neighborhood, part of the 3rd council district) but who works in downtown Bellingham, I aspire to commute to work by bike as often as I can. But in practice, my ride can feel challenging and unsafe at times, and often I end up taking the car instead. I know first-hand the frustrations that prevent most people from even trying to ride bicycles on our roads. I consider myself only a moderately skilled cyclist (I'm not the type who's out every weekend racing 50 miles wearing spandex). I think I can be a voice for the large majority of the public who wants to bicycle more frequently (maybe for health reasons, or to help the environment, or just to save money) but doesn't feel confident or safe enough on our roads. By serving on the Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Committee, I'd hope to help make our county roads more inviting and easier to ride, thereby making it easier for more people to make biking and walking part of their daily lives.

Jan 2016 I have been employed with the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) for 26 years (17 years in Whatcom County). I work in a Project Engineer Office, which administers highway construction contracts. 1 am a supervisor of an inspection staff. My duties include the following: • Ensure that the contractor performs work that is in compliance with WSDOT Standard Specifications and Plans. • Develop solutions to design errors and/or changes that result from discrepancies between the contract and existing field conditions. • Review proposed changes from the contractor to ensure that they are consistent with applicable WSDOT Standards and policies. The experience described above would enable me to perform very similar reviews on proposed changes as they are applicable to Land Use Regulations and Comprehensive Plans for Whatcom County. Describe why you are interested in serving on this commission: I would like the County Council and County Executive to have as much information as they, need to prepare them for decisions on issues. My skills and abilities as a Civil Engineer, along with the experience described above, will enable me to review the technical aspects of how Land Use Regulations and Comprehensive Plans may or may not be affected by variances/changes as a result of proposed improvements. I believe that my experience and skills will enable me to provide open perspective on issues from an engineering standpoint, which will enable the County Council and County Executive to have access to complete information on these types of issues.. As a result, they will be able to continue to make informed and accurate decisions related to Land Use Regulations and Comprehensive Plans. I am an employee of WSDOT and therefore do some business with Whatcom County: One of my tasks in my current position with WSDOT requires that I perform field reviews with County inspectors of the condition of County roads before and after traffic detours have been utilized for the construction work on State highways. We agree on whether or not any damage has been done to the County roads as a result of a given detour. If there is damage, I work with the County inspector to determine the best course of action to make repairs to the damaged areas. Final decisions from WSDOT for the agreements that are administered with our office are made by my supervisor. These reviews occur approximately once per year.

Stoyka, Natural Resources Manager COUNTY EXECUTIVE, Austin Rose, Planner I RE: Marine Resources Committee appointment recommendations DATE: January 4, 2018 There are currently three vacancies on the Marine Resources Committee (MRC). Applicant positions include: a Conservation/Environmental interest, a Recreational interest, and an Economic interest. The Executive's Office forwarded three applications for the MRC to review which included: one application from Mr. Jim Hansen to fulfill a second term in a Recreational interest position, one application from Mr. Robert Seaman to begin his first full term on the MRC in a Conservation -Environmental interest position, and one application from Ms. Caitlin Martin for a new first term in a Conservation -Environmental interest position. A recommendation was requested from the Executive's Office for the most appropriate applicant on file for the open positions. The MRC recommends the appointments of Mr. Jim Hansen to continue to represent a Recreational interest and Mr. Robert Seaman to continue to represent a Conservation/Environmental interest to the MRC. Their commitment to education and outreach, monitoring projects, and policy recommendations are important assets to the committee. Ms. Caitlin Martin is not recommended to join the committee at this time due to lack of experience that would be complementary to MRC work. Ms. Martin will be contacted to discuss her interest in the MRC, and it is hoped she will consider serving on a subcommittee to gain experience with projects the MRC pursues. The MRC does not have a recommendation for a candidate to fill the open Economic interest position at this time. The position will continue to be advertised on the MRC website and it is hoped that a suitable candidate will be identified as more applications are submitted and reviewed. If you have any questions regarding this recommendation, please contact Austin Rose at extension 6286 767 Application for Appointment to Whatcom County Boards and Commissions Public Statement THIS IS A PUBLIC DOCUMENT.

"Sam" Ryan Director SUBJECT: Update on designated positions on PDR Oversight Committee and Staff Recommendation of Purchase of Development Rights Oversight Committee applicants Heather MacKay Brown, Ronald 'Burr' Neely, and Paul Schissler At the November 11, 2017 PDR Oversight Committee meeting, a motion was approved to re -designate current committee member Jen Glyzinski from the Non -farmer, Unincorporated position to the Real Estate/Banker position. Jen is a practicing real estate professional therefore the designated Real Estate/Banker position seemed more appropriate given her qualifications. This would provide a vacancy in the non -farmer unincorporated committee position. Staff would like to recommend Heather MacKay Brown to fill the Non -farmer, Incorporated position on the Purchase of Development Rights Oversight Committee. This position is being vacated by long-time committee member John Gillies. Heather has a keen understanding of agricultural, ecosystem, and related land use challenges and opportunities in Whatcom County and has expressed a strong interest in contributing her knowledge, skills, and enthusiasm to work of the PDR Oversight Committee. Her application and resume demonstrate the significant knowledge and experience she has related to the work of the PDR Oversight Committee. She has been attending committee meetings fairly regularly as a member of the public and we would be pleased to have her join the committee as an official member. Staff would like to recommend Ronald 'Burr' Neely to fill the Non -farmer, Unincorporated position on the Purchase of Development Rights Oversight Committee. Burr has moved to Whatcom County within the past year and has expressed an interest in participating in the local land use conversation especially as it relates to preservation of the working agricultural landscape. His experience in historic land uses will provide valuable insight on the committee as we discuss current and future land uses. His application demonstrates a relevant knowledge base and a commitment to participating in community service. He has attended a PDR Oversight Committee meeting as a member of the public and we would be pleased to have Burr join the committee as an official member. 783 Staff would like to recommend Paul Schissler to fill the Farm -supporting Business role on the Purchase of Development Rights Oversight Committee. Paul has previously served 2 terms on the PDR Oversight Committee and took his required one year off from committee before reapplying. Paul has a wealth of experience in developing and implementing creative farm support programs and initiatives that aim to support farmers and achieve food system goals.

Please describe your occupation (or Retired. Senior Principal Software Architect, CA Technologies, a divisional vice former occupation if retired), president level position in a Fortune 500 corporation. I have been involved with qualifications, professional and/or libraries my entire life. I got my first Whatcom County Library card in 1955. 1 have community activities, and education worked in libraries as a part-time student, a full-time technician, and as a volunteer. I worked in the software industry as a developer, designer, architect, and manager for three decades. I have two published books or enterprise computer architecture and one on personal cybersecurity and hold three patents on aspects of enterprise computing. Education: Ferndale High School, 1967 University of Chicago, Bachelor of Arts, 1971 University of Chicago, Master of Arts, 1973 University of Chicago, admitted to PhD Candidacy, 1974 Washington State Apprenticeship and Training Council, Journeyman Carpenter Certificate, 1982 Western Washington University, Bachelor of Science, Computer Science, 1987. 10. Please describe why you're I have an abiding interest in public libraries and the welfare and growth of interested in serving on this board or Whatcom County. I am a 4th generation Whatcom County (North Bellingham) resident. Although I have worked and studied all over the United States and the commission globe, I have continuously maintained residence and voting registration in Whatcom County and I now live on the family homestead dairy farm. I want to contribute to the future of the county as best I can. Like many industries, libraries face disruption and turmoil as the digital revolution transforms the way information is exchanged and disseminated locally, nationally, and globally. Libraries play an important role in maintaining the cohesion, educational standards, and quality of life of the communities they serve. I believe my experience as a dairy farmer, in the construction trades, and as a software engineer uniquely qualify me to continue to help the Whatcom County Library System through this transformation and ensure that the benefits to the taxpayers of the library district are optimized. I've served on the WCLS board for 3 years and I wish to continue to contribute. During that time, have seen WCLS garner several national awards. Most importantly, in a time when library circulation has been flat or declining nationally, WCLS has increased both its digital and paper circulation. These are the achievements of an extraordinarily dedicated and talented staff which I would be very proud to continue to support as a trustee.

"Sam" Ryan Director RECEIVED JAN 17 Z018 January 17, 2018 JACK L OUWS POWNTY EXECUTIVE TO: The Honorable Jack Louws, Whatcom County Executive The Honorable Whatcom County Council FROM: Matt Aamot, Senior Planner. THROUGH: Mark Personius, Assistant Director +-F RE: Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments (PLN2017-00001) Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2L-2 is to "Retain and periodically review the adopted Subarea Plans" including the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1997 and amended in 1999, 2004, and 2009. The Whatcom County Council approved Resolution No. 2017-016 on March 21, 2017 initiating review and update of the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, related provisions of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, and the Whatcom County Zoning Code. County staff worked with City of Bellingham staff over a four month period on developing the proposed changes to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, County Comprehensive Plan, and County Zoning Code. Some of the proposed changes to the Subarea Plan include: • Modifying the boundaries of the Subarea to match the Bellingham Urban Growth Area (UGA), so that the subarea no longer includes rural and agricultural lands in the vicinity of the UGA (pp. 6, 31, and 32). • Modifying Policy 1.12 to reflect current City of Bellingham policy regarding extension of public water and sewer outside city limits (p. 8). • Deleting Policy 1.15, which requires transfer of development rights for rezones that increase residential densities (p. 9). • Identifying comparable city zoning for different areas (pp. 10, 12, 14, 16, 17, 19, 22, 24, 25, and 27). • Deleting Policy 2.17, which requires City impact fees for development located in the UGA, outside city limits (p. 13). • Deleting the General Manufacturing (GM) text and policies because there is no longer any GM zoning in the Urban Fringe Subarea (pp. 21-22). 812 Modifying Policy 4.32 by inserting a reference to WCC 8.34 relating to disclosure of airport noise (p. 26). Inserting new Policy 4.33 encouraging the City of Bellingham to adopt airport/land use compatibility rules applicable to properties around the airport (p. 27). This concept was suggested by the Port of Bellingham and will become even more important if the City annexes property adjacent to the Bellingham International Airport. ■ Inserting text acknowledging the existence of Recreation and Open Space zoning within the Urban Fringe Subarea (p. 27). • Updating criteria for evaluating UGAs (pp. 29-30). • Deleting "Comprehensive Plan Land Use & Official Zoning" maps from the Subarea Plan (pp. 33-48). Land use designations already exist in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and zoning maps. • Deleting the "Analysis and Rationale for Adjusting Bellingham's 1985 Urban Service Area" that was originally from the 1997 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan (pp. 49-66). Some of these areas have been annexed, some are in the current UGA, and some were not included in the UGA. Deleting the "Five Year Periodic Review" section (pp. 66 and 67). The Growth Management Act now requires periodic review of all UGAs every eight years (RCW 36.70A.130). • Updating the "Comprehensive Plan Amendments" section that relates to both the state mandated 8-year review and amendments proposed by individual property owners (pp. 67-69). • Updating the implementation section (pp. 69-70). ■ Deleting several other sections, including sections relating to the interlocal agreement, design standards, Guide Meridian Improvement Plan, creative development techniques, and plan revisions (pp. 70-72). The proposed amendments update the Subarea Plan for consistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, Whatcom County Zoning Code, and City of Bellingham policy. The amendments also propose deleting policies that may be in conflict with state law. Finally, the amendments propose deleting information that is outdated or no longer necessary. The Whatcom County Planning Commission held a public hearing and issued recommendations on this matter on January 11, 2018. Thank you for your review and consideration of the proposal. We look forward to discussing it with you. 813 1-17-2018 SPONSORED BY: PROPOSED BY: _ INTRODUCTION DATE: ORDINANCE NO. ADOPTING AMENDMENTS TO THE URBAN FRINGE SUBAREA PLAN, WHATCOM COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND WHATCOM COUNTY ZONING CODE WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Council initiated (docketed) the proposed amendments for further review in March 2017; and WHEREAS, The Whatcom County Planning Commission held public meetings and issued recommendations on the proposed amendments; and WHEREAS, The County Council considered Planning Commission recommendations; and WHEREAS, The County Council hereby adopts the following findings of fact: FINDINGS OF FACT Background Information 1. The subject proposal consists of amendments to the: a. Urban Fringe Subarea Plan; b. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy; and c. Whatcom County Zoning Code (Title 20). 2. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan was updated in August 2016 (Ordinance 2016-034). This update included the county -wide urban growth area (UGA) review. The existing Bellingham UGA was retained in this process. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update involves review of the text, goals, policies, and maps of the Subarea Plan. However, the Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process completed in 2016. 3. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA ..." (p. 2-24). Therefore, the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan boundary is being modified to match the Bellingham UGA boundary. The Urban Fringe Subarea will no longer include Rural and other lands outside the UGA. Page 1 of 13 4. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2L-2 is to "Retain and periodically review the adopted Subarea Plans" including the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1997 (with amendments in 1999, 2004, and 2009). 5. The County Council passed Resolution #2017-016 in March 2017 initiating review and update of the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related provisions of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. State Environmental Policy Act 6. A Determination of Non -significance was issued by the SEPA Responsible Official on September 29, 2017. Comprehensive Plan/Subarea Plan Approval Criteria 7. The criteria of WCC 2.160.080, summarized below, must be satisfied in order to approve a comprehensive plan amendment. • The amendment conforms to the requirements of Growth Management Act (GMA), is internally consistent with the county -wide planning policies and is consistent with any interlocal planning agreements. • Further studies made or accepted by the department of planning and development services indicate changed conditions that show a need for the amendment. 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 shall be considered: o The anticipated effect upon the rate or distribution of population growth, employment growth, development, and conversion of land as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. o The anticipated effect upon the ability of the County and/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. o Anticipated impact upon designated agricultural, forest and mineral resource lands. • The amendment does not include or facilitate spot zoning. • Transfer of development rights may be required if an urban growth area is expanded. Page 2 of 13 815 Subarea Plans 8. The GMA, in a section entitled "Optional Elements," states that a "comprehensive plan may include, where appropriate, subarea plans, each of which is consistent with the comprehensive plan" (RCW 36.70A.080(2)). 9. The Western Washington Growth Management Hearings Board has stated that: ... Subarea plans are optional elements of a comprehensive plan. While a jurisdiction has discretion to utilize subarea plans, RCW 36.70A.080(2) requires that subarea plans be consistent with the comprehensive plan and are subject to the goals and requirements of the GMA. Subarea plans are, as the prefix "sub" implies, a subset of the comprehensive plan of a jurisdiction and they typically augment or amplify policies contained in the comprehensive plan. There is no GMA requirement that a subarea plan contain a// the mandatory elements required by RCW 36.70A.070... (Campbell v. San Juan County, Case No. 09-2-0014, Final Decision and Order, January 27, 2010). 10. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan is an optional element that Whatcom County has chosen to include, at the County's discretion, in the County's Comprehensive Plan. Intergovernmental Coordination / Public Participation 11. GMA planning goals are set forth in RCW 36.70A.020. The GMA citizen participation and coordination planning goal is to "Encourage the involvement of citizens in the planning process and ensure coordination between communities and jurisdictions to reconcile conflicts" (RCW 36.70A.020(11)). 12. County and City of Bellingham staff met over a four month period (April - August 2017) to discuss proposed changes to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, related changes to the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, and related changes to the Whatcom County Zoning Code. 13. The Whatcom County Planning Commission held a work session on the Draft Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related amendments on December 14, 2017. 14. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Draft Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related amendments on January 11, 2018. Urban Growth 15. GMA planning goal # 1 is to "Encourage development in urban areas where adequate public facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner" (RCW 36.70A.020(1)). Under the GMA, urban growth areas have been designated pursuant to RCW 36.70A.110. Page 3 of 13 16. County -wide Planning Policy F-11 states 'The county and the City of Bellingham shall establish, through the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update, the policies, zoning and criteria to comply with current state Growth Management law." 17. County -wide Planning Policy F-12 states The revised Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and a new Interlocal Agreement between the City of Bellingham and the county will address sequence and timing for annexations, subdivisions, and urban levels of development." 18. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan contains goals and policies supporting the Bellingham Urban Growth Area designation including Goal 2U and Policies 2U-1 through 2U-10. 19. The Bellingham UGA was adopted by the Whatcom County Council in 1997, when the Comprehensive Plan was originally adopted pursuant to the GMA (Ordinance 97-023). 20. The Bellingham UGA was reduced in size in the 2009 UGA review (Ordinance 2009-071). 21. The Bellingham UGA was retained in the 2016 UGA review (Ordinance 2016- 034). 22. The amended Urban Fringe Subarea Plan includes a map of the existing Bellingham UGA, which is consistent with the UGA boundaries in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Low Density Sprawl 23. GMA planning goal # 2 is to "Reduce the inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling, low -density development" (RCW 36.70A.020(2)). 24. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, and Whatcom County Zoning Code protect land from sprawling low -density development because: a. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan encourages net densities of 6 to 24 dwellings/acre in Bellingham (Goal 2P). b. In the Lake Whatcom Watershed, urban residential zoning in the Bellingham UGA allows one dwelling/five acres if public water and sewer are available. When public water and sewer are not provided, the maximum density is one dwelling/ten acres. c. Outside the Lake Whatcom Watershed, urban residential zoning in the Page 4of13 817 Bellingham UGA may be developed at urban densities if public water and sewer are provided. When public water and sewer are not provided, the maximum density is one dwelling/ten acres. Transportation 25. GMA planning goal # 3 is to "Encourage efficient multimodal transportation systems that are based on regional priorities and coordinated with county and city comprehensive plans" (RCW 36.70A.020(3)). 26, County -wide Planning Policy J-2 states that "Whatcom County jurisdictions shall encourage alternative modes of transportation to the single occupancy vehicle..." 27. Transportation planning is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.6 is to "Promote development that supports and enhances efficient public transportation and an intermodal transportation system." Additionally, other policies in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan address transportation issues in a variety of land use designations in the Subarea. Housing 28. GMA planning goal # 4 is to "Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population of this state, promote a variety of residential densities and housing types, and encourage preservation of existing housing stock" (RCW 36.70A.020(4)). 29. County -wide Planning Policy G-2 states that "The county and the cities shall plan for a range of housing types and costs commensurate with their affordable housing needs." 30. Housing is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Urban residential zones in the UGA allow a variety of densities and housing types upon provision of public water and sewer. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.3 is to "Provide opportunities for a diversity of housing types in the Urban Growth Area." The City of Bellingham generally does not extend public water and sewer outside city limits. Therefore, higher density housing in the Bellingham UGA typically occurs after annexation. Economic Development 31. GMA planning goal # 5 is to "Encourage economic development throughout the state that is consistent with adopted comprehensive plans, promote economic opportunity for all citizens of this state, especially for unemployed and for disadvantaged persons, promote the retention and expansion of existing businesses and recruitment of new businesses, recognize regional differences impacting economic development opportunities, and encourage Page 5of13 growth in areas experiencing insufficient economic growth, all within the capacities of the state's natural resources, public services, and public facilities" (RCW 36.70A.020(5)). 32. County -wide Planning Policy I-7 states: Economic vitality and job development shall be encouraged in all the cities and in designated areas of the county consistent with community growth policies, particularly addressing adequacy of transportation corridors, public transportation, impacts on the environment, and the ability of the area to provide urban services. 33. Economic development issues are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, the Urban Fringe Subarea contains policies relating to commercial, industrial, and airport zones to facilitate economic opportunities in the Bellingham UGA. Property Rights 34. GMA planning goal # 6 states that "Private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation having been made. The property rights of landowners shall be protected from arbitrary and discriminatory actions" (RCW 36.70A.020(6)). 35. The Attorney General's Advisory Memorandum and Recommended Process for Evaluating Proposed Regulatory or Administrative Actions to Avoid Unconstitutional Takings of Private Property (December 2015) has been reviewed by legal counsel and no warning signals that are associated with the takings analysis have been identified for the subject amendments. Permitting 36. GMA planning goal # 7 states "Applications for both state and local government permits should be processed in a timely and fair manner to ensure predictability" (RCW 36.70A.020(7)). 37. Permitting issues are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan on a county -wide basis. Resource Lands and Industries 38. GMA planning goal # 8 is to "Maintain and enhance natural resource -based industries, including productive timber, agricultural, and fisheries industries. Encourage the conservation of productive forest lands and productive agricultural lands, and discourage incompatible uses" (RCW 36.70A.020(8)). Page 6of13 • 39. County -wide Planning Policy I-9 states: The County and the cities recognize the need for the protection and utilization of natural resources and resource lands including agricultural, mineral, forestry and fishing. As part of a broad based economy, productive timber, agriculture and fisheries industries should be supported in a sustainable manner. 40. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan boundary is being revised to match the Bellingham UGA boundary. There are no designated agriculture, forestry, or mineral resource lands within the revised Urban Fringe Subarea boundary. Open Space/Recreation/Fish & Wildlife 41. GMA planning goal # 9 is to "Retain open space, enhance recreational opportunities, conserve fish and wildlife habitat, increase access to natural resource lands and water, and develop parks and recreation facilities" (RCW 36.70A.020(9)). 42. County -wide Planning Policy H-1 states: Adequate open space is vital to the quality of life and sense of place in Whatcom County. The county, cities, Port of Bellingham, and other appropriate jurisdictions should coordinate protection of linked greenbelts, within and between Urban Growth Areas, parks, and open space to protect wildlife corridors and to enhance recreational opportunities, public access and trail development. 43. Open space, recreation, and fish & wildlife habitat are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.16 is to 'Promote a coordinated effort to identify and prioritize interconnected natural areas and features for preservation to protect water quality and provide habitat, recreation, open space and wildlife corridors." Environment 44. GMA planning goal # 10 is to "Protect the environment and enhance the state's high quality of life, including air and water quality, and the availability of water" (RCW 36.70A.020(10)). 45. County -wide Planning Policy N-1 states: The cities, and the county, in cooperation with other municipal corporations, tribal governments, federal and state agencies, and public and private utilities shall cooperate in the protection of water resources and in drawing upon said water to support growth. Page 7of13 1 46. The environment is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.16 is to "Promote a coordinated effort to identify and prioritize interconnected natural areas and features for preservation to protect water quality and provide habitat, recreation, open space and wildlife corridors." Public Facilities 47. GMA planning goal # 12 is to "Ensure that those public facilities and services necessary to support development shall be adequate to serve the development at the time the development is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current service levels below locally established minimum standards" (RCW 36.70A.020(12)). 48. County -wide Planning Policy D-3 states "Cities shall develop a plan to provide urban level water and sewer services within their Urban Growth Areas... " 49. The City of Bellingham, Water District 2, Water District 7, the Lake Whatcom Water and Sewer District and several other purveyors currently plan and provide water service to various parts of the UGA. The City of Bellingham plans water service for unserved parts of the UGA, but physical service is typically provided after annexation. 50. The City of Bellingham and the Lake Whatcom Water and Sewer District currently plan and provide sewer service to various parts of the UGA. The City of Bellingham plans sewer service for unserved parts of the UGA, but physical service is typically provided after annexation. 51. The City of Bellingham Fire Department provides service inside the city limits. Fire Districts 4, 8, South Whatcom Fire Authority, and North Whatcom Fire & Rescue currently serve the Bellingham UGA. 52. The Bellingham, Meridian, and Ferndale School Districts serve the UGA. 53. Capital facility planning for water, sewer, fire protection, and schools is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan (Chapter 4 and Appendix E - Whatcom County 20-Year Capital Facilities Plan). However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.5 is to "Direct urban growth and development into areas where City public water and sewer services are available or can be readily provided." Historical and Archaeological 54. GMA planning goal # 13 is to "Identify and encourage the preservation of lands, sites, and structures, that have historical or archaeological significance" (RCW 36.70A.020(13)). Page 8of13 821 55. The historical and archaeological resources are addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Accommodation of Growth 56. RCW 36.70A.110(2) indicates that the county and each city within the county shall include areas and densities sufficient to permit the urban growth that is projected to occur in the county or city for the succeeding twenty-year period in the UGA. 57. RCW 36.70A.115 indicates that Counties and cities shall ensure that, taken collectively, adoption of and amendments to their comprehensive plans and/or development regulations provide sufficient capacity of land suitable for development within their jurisdictions to accommodate their allocated housing and employment growth, including commercial, industrial, medical, governmental, educational and institutional uses. 58. State rules relating to the GMA indicate that the land capacity analyses required under RCW 36.70A.115 are primarily to take place at the periodic UGA reviews that counties and cities undertake every eight years. However, land capacity estimates are recommended during review of other comprehensive plan and development regulation amendments, if they increase or decrease allowed densities (WAC 365-196-325(1)(b) and (d)). 59. A land capacity analysis for the Bellingham UGA was conducted at the time of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan update/UGA review demonstrating that it can accommodate allocated population and employment growth. 60. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update will not increase or decrease allowed densities. Therefore, a new land capacity analysis is not required. 61. The Comprehensive Plan update/UGA review was completed in 2016. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is intended to provide consistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process. Interlocal Agreement 62. The Interlocal Agreement Between the City of Bellingham and Whatcom County Concerning Planning, Annexation and Development within the Bellingham UGA was approved by both jurisdictions in April 2012. 63. The Interlocal Agreement states: Whatcom County will review the UGA in accordance with the schedule in RCW 36.70A.130 to ensure that the UGA can accommodate the urban growth projected to occur in the 20-year planning period established by the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. The County Page 9of13 822 and City will collaborate throughout the UGA review process. The City will submit recommendations to the County in accordance with the schedule for joint County and City review of the UGA and the County will consider the recommendations prior to making any changes to the City's UGA... (Section 2.C, pp. 4 and 5). 64, Whatcom County, in consultation with the City of Bellingham, concluded the UGA review process in August 2016 with the adoption of Ordinance 2016- 034. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.130, the next UGA review must occur by 2024. This Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process. 65. The Interlocal Agreement states "For residential zoning districts in annexation areas, the City agrees to adopt appropriate urban densities consistent with the State GMA, City Comprehensive Plan, the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and the overall density goals of the County Comprehensive Plan (Section 3.E, p. 8). 66. Comparable city zoning is identified for residential areas in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. Further Studies/Changed Conditions 67. The original Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1984 and repealed in 1997. A revised Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1997, with amendments in 1999, 2004 and 2009. 68. The periodic update of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan was completed in August of 2016 (Ordinance 2016-034) in accordance with RCW 36.70A.130. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan provides direction for land use policy in Whatcom County. Subarea plans are to be consistent with the comprehensive plan (RCW 36.70A.080). The subject amendments to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan provide consistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. 69. Some of the information in the Subarea Plan has become outdated or unnecessary. For example, some of the Bellingham UGA has been annexed and there is no longer General Manufacturing zoning within the UGA. Additionally, it is no longer necessary to include City of recommendations from the 1997 Subarea Plan two decades later in an updated Subarea Plan. 70. A new Interlocal Agreement was approved by Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham in 2012. Additionally, Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2U-5 addresses reviewing and updating the Interlocal Agreement. Therefore, it is not necessary to address the Interlocal Agreement in detail in the Subarea Plan. Page 10 of 13 823 Public Interest 71. It is in the public interest to amend the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan in order to: a. Eliminate inconsistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan; b. Eliminate inconsistency with the Whatcom County Zoning Code and maps; c. Eliminate inconsistency with City of Bellingham policy; and d. Delete outdated and unnecessary information. Spot Zoning 72. The Whatcom County Zoning Code defines illegal spot zoning as follows: "Illegal spot zoning" means a zoning action by which a smaller area is singled out of a larger area or district and specially zoned for a use classification totally different from, and inconsistent with, the classification of surrounding land and not in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Spot zoning is zoning for private gain designed to favor or benefit a particular individual or group and not the welfare of the community as a whole (WCC 20.97.186). 73. There are no proposed rezones associated with the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update. Transfer of Development Rights for Expanding UGAs 74. There are no UGA expansions associated with the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update. Zoning Text Amendments 75. WCC 20.90.050 indicates that proposed zoning amendments must be evaluated in relationship to the goals and policies of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. 76. The subject proposal includes text amendments for the following zoning districts: a. Urban Residential Medium Density (URM); b. Urban Residential Mixed (UR-MX); c. Gateway Industrial (GI); Page 11 of 13 d. Light Impact Industrial (LII); and e. Heavy Impact Industrial (HII). 77. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Goal 2D is to "Refine the regulatory system to ensure accomplishment of desired land use goals in a fair and equitable manner." 78. The text amendments in the URM and UR-MX zones include eliminating requirements imposing City of Bellingham impact fees on development in the UGA. This amendment recognizes that the County would have to conduct the analysis, and adopt an ordinance, as required by RCW 82.02.050-.110 prior to imposing City of Bellingham impact fees in unincorporated areas. In order for any impact fees to be fair and equitable, they must meet the requirements of state law. 79. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Goal 1A is to 'Ensure that government activities, regulations and policies are transparent, accountable and easy to understand." 80. The text amendments to the GI, LII, and HII zones are primarily housekeeping amendments. These amendments recognize that maps will be deleted from the Subarea Plan. They also replace the term "Urban Fringe Subarea" with "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" as it is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better sense of where the regulations apply. These amendments should make the zoning code a little easier to understand. CONCLUSIONS The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan amendments are consistent with the approval criteria of WCC 2.160.080. 2. The Whatcom County Zoning Code amendments are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Page 12 of 13 825 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Whatcom County Council that: Section 1.

Existing Goals and Policy Framework A. Growth Management Act (GMA) The State Legislature adopted the Growth Management Act (GMA) in 1990 and 1991, requiring jurisdictions in the fastest growing areas of the state to update their comprehensive plans in accordance with G MAJ-3-stated goals. This legislation was intended to recognize that uncoordinated and unplanned growth poses a threat to the environment, to sustainable economic development and to the health, safety and high quality of life enjoyed by residents of this state. Planning under GMA needs to occur in a coordinated and comprehensive manner drawing on the cooperation of related jurisdictions. E&nsmstent wits-this-di ree6ve; .the-Gk-y-o€-Beiitngha-m---nd-Wfratc-m-Gounty-hav-e mated e# deems' rrs en--ai),pfepNate-fiA-ue- l a n- u 5e p teem aiid--ufba n g r y fs appr auftty-land the � orb �Fr-i-nge-S-ubar�ea, Rationale: The future land use patterns and urban growth area boundary are adopted in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. The existing Urban Fringe Subarea Plan covers the Bellingham UGA and adjacent lands. However, the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA ... " (p. 2- 24). Therefore, the Rural and Agricultural areas will no longer be addressed in the Subarea Plan and the plan no longer covers 6,000 acres. B. County -wide Planning Policies As a-required„ment e b the Growth Management Act, county -wide planning policies have beenare-to--be adopted by Whatcom County with concurrence by all cities .4pr-eemp I+an-ce t 4:tateor n-C- e +r-ity Bel-HPcgtl-aM and—the-other-inee The County -wide Planning Policies which --establish a county -wide framework for developing and adopting city and county comprehensive plans and assure that city and county plans are consistent. Rationale: The GMA requires the legislative authority of a county to adopt county -wide planning policies in cooperation with cities (RCW 35.70A.210(2)). The GMA does not require adoption by cities. 5 832 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 C. Whatcom County Camgrehensive PlanVisions for Bellhngham Goal The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan sets the boundaries of the 10 urban growth areas UGAs in Whatcom County, including the Bellingham UGA. The County, in coordination with the cities conducts the UGA review as part of the Comprehensive Plan update required by the GMA every eight years. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan also contains textgoals, and policies relating to the Bellingham UGA. ' Bellingham Gity Gounell adopting a set ef geals to guide growth and development. The goals are by referemee, as ohP{am-in4lie included,interest ef pr-emeting consistency as dietated by the Growth fir these geal statengents pfev4ded the basis e Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan provides direction for land use in the County, including in the Urban Fringe Subarea. The Visions for Bellingham document is more than 20-years old and, therefore, need not be referenced in the Subarea Plan. D. Urban Fringe Subarea Plan --Geographic Area The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan al2plies to the Bellingham UGA. This Subarea Plan does not aDply to land outside the UGA boundaries. Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA . . . " (p. 2-24). Therefore, the Rural and Agricultural areas around the UGA will no longer be addressed in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. III. Population Forecasts/Land Supply Projections of future population size are an essential component of land use planning. As required by GMA, the Washington State Office of Financial Management developed a 20-year population projection for Whatcom County. These population projections and an analysis of the capacity of land presently zoned for urbanj-esi ent+al development help determine additienalland supply needs for the next 20 years of growth. By incorporating population forecasts into the planning process, Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham will ensure, as much as possible, that future needs for employment, transportation, affordable housing, utility, parks and other amenities will be met within the planning period. Population and employment projections are adopted in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. 833 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 IV.

Encourage and provide opportunities for a maximum degree of citizen participation in the governmental planning and decision making process. 1.3 Provide opportunities for a diversity of housing types in the Urban Growth Area. 1.4 Direct new high density residential, commercial and industrial development to al2propriate zoning districts. tewafd. exislbng urbaR n,--ryes--te sttppeft land use and transpeitatien plans. 1.5 Direct urban growth and development into areas where e*istiflg-City public water and sewer services utilities and se;�c;es are available orate can be readily provided.expanded. 1.6 Promote development that supports and enhances efficient public transportation and an intermodal transportation system. 1.7 Maintain and update, as appropriate, the adopted interlocal agreement between Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham. AdePt an inter -local agree hat. selEs agree,-' apen develeqt Bel' -- aef pplieatien .a - standards and quidelines and impact fee ordii-a-e-es te all development +R Rationale: The interlocal agreement between Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham was updated in 2012. It is effective through the year 2022. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2U-5 addresses reviewing and updating the interlocal. 7 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 1.8 Cooperate and coordinate with the City of Bellingham, special districts and other governmental agencies to ensure efficient provision of a full range of urban services in the Urban Growth Area. 1.9 Continue joint City and County site plan review for all new residential, commercial, industrial, and Airport Operations development in the Urban Growth Area. 1.10 Recognize that the City of Bellingham will be the primary provider of urban services and facilities within its designated urban growth area. 1.11 Permit development concurrent with public facilities and services needed to support that development. 1.12 Consistent with t#e-adopted City policy, areas in Bellingham's UGA will be eligible to receive city water and sewer service upon annexation or as otherwise allowed by the Bellingham Munici al Code. e4y-in the folio �titri.�r�i� I.LRI li t�l-s�i�- i ffi "19 Rationale: Bellingham Municipal Code (BMC) 15.36.010 indicates that the City only provides new water and sewer service after annexation, with a few exceptions. The BMC formerly allowed water and sewer extensions in the UGA, outside city limits, if TDRs were utilized. However, the TDR exception was repealed by Ordinance 2011-05-025, which was adopted by the Bellingham City Council in 2011. 1.13 Minimize land use conflicts in the Urban Growth Area through the use of appropriate buffering mechanisms, design standards, and locational criteria. -; and- Promoteing compatibility between land uses, especially among residential, commercial, industrial and Airport Operations designations. 1.14 Designate appropriate zones within the Urban Growth Area as receiving areas for transfer of development rights from the Lake Whatcom watershed in order to promote increased densities within the Urban Growth Area and decrease densities within the watershed to help protect water quality. 835 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 1.15 R-eWifeA-fir sfe r of de prMent rights freng the Lake �EDm +r�atersT urrle�te rpr-epeAy F�tima4 d eta-i-i= ies. Rationale: RCW 82.02.020 states in part: ... no county, city, town, or other municipal corporation shall impose any tax, fee, or charge, either direct or indirect, on the construction or reconstruction of residential buildings, commercial buildings, industrial buildings, or on any other building or building space or appurtenance thereto, or on the development, subdivision, classification, or reclassification of land... This section does not prohibit voluntary agreements with counties, cities, towns, or other municipal corporations that allow a payment in lieu of a dedication of land or to mitigate a direct impact that has been identified as a consequence of a proposed development, subdivision, or plat... Staff consulted with the Whatcom County Prosecuting Attorney's Office, who provided the opinion that requiring the purchase of TDRs in exchange for a rezone would constitute a fee or charge on a "reclassification of land" (rezone) and, therefore, is not allowed under this state law. Additionally, the exception for "voluntary agreements" does not apply to reclassifications of land. 1.16 Promote a coordinated effort to identify and prioritize interconnected natural areas and features for preservation to protect water quality and provide habitat, recreation, open space and wildlife corridors. 1.17 Unincor ocated areas added to the Cit 's UGA in the future should be re- zoned by the City. Rationale: The City of Bellingham recommended this policy in an e- mail of August 30, 2017. B. Land USe--ZoninU _Designations, Locational Criteria and Policies Urban Residential Designations Urban Residential Deqs_ity 2.1 The Urban Residential plaR designation (UR) is located in Bellingham's Urban Growth Area and can be urbanized at such time that a full range of urban services can be efficiently provided. The primary purpose of the Urban Residential designation is to promote an orderly 9 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 transition from rural land uses and densities to urban land uses and densities. Comparable City zoning for th-e_Llrban Residential_ designation_ is Residential -,-Single Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan does not include an "Urban Residential" land use designation, although there is an "Urban Residential" zoning designation. 2.2 The Fatmenale undeFlying Urban Residential zoninqLaw Density designation is te-reserves certain land in the UGAuFban gFe tee€ eities for future urban purposes and encourages interim uses that are complementary and compatible with future urban densities and services. The designation intends to encourage the responsible growth of urban areas by assuring that a full range of urban services is available to support urban level densities. 2.3 Locational Criteria Areas Appropriate for Urban Residential zoning designation include the following: 2.3.1 Land areas inadjacent te the Bellingham UGA er the Urb SeFviee Ar that are of sufficient size to adequately accommodate the projected demands for residential and associated uses, transportation and public uses, for the-tw-enty-year pla-nn-ing period. Rationale: Multiple zoning districts provide land for the 20-year planning period, not just the UR zone. 2.3.2 Land areas where a full range of urban services presently exists or can be economically and efficiently provided in the planning period, near--fut-ufe� 2.3.3 Areas that contain an adequate supply of vacant land suitable for urban development. 2.3.4 The boundaries of the Urban Residential designation should be well defined, logical, provide a physical "sense of community" and be capable of being expanded to accommodate additional urban growth as the need arises. 2.3.5 The Urban Residential zoning district allows urban density development (outside the Lake Whatcom WatershedLis when a full range of urban services areas provided. In areas where such services do not exist, the maximum density is one dwelling unit per ten acres. Rationale: The UR zone does not allow new urban development in the Lake Whatcom Watershed even if public water and sewer are available in the UGA. One dwelling/five acres is allowed in the UR zone in the Watershed if public water and sewer are available (WCC 20.20.252). 837 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 2.4 The Urban Residential designation is intended to be urban with urban uses and services and is to promote an orderly transition from rural land uses and densities to urban land uses and densities. 2.5 The predominant land use pattern within the Urban Residential zoningia�- use designation should be residential, allowing single family residential, neighborhood scale commercial in specific designated areas, parks and other public uses. 2.6 The-Lfr- 6a�n--R-esident4al--des�g-na6e n-a4 €e ws th"F acre--w+b- in -the Lake-VA-at-Eetfig-wat-e'- rya,", v--nzrjaisent-te-Bel Hfi g h a-m Bay-.Th�-Ele*natien-aiHo-ws six-(&)-dwellingper ere4n4he-S­e-a;;4ew-afea advent -to Be!i+n-g#a m-Bay--and-4n-t-hValley-east-r7f++an negate Read-. Rationale: The Zoning Ordinance establishes the densities in various areas. The Urban Residential zone normally allows urban densities when public water and sewer are available. However, the maximum density is one dwelling/five acres in the Lake Whatcom Watershed if public water & sewer are available. If public water & sewer are not available, the density is one dwelling/ten acres (WCC 20.20.252). 2.7 in the U.-s- an ❑....:.gent4a-d-esigne�ofi-.--W-etlafld--systems and e-afea-s s� ou l d -be-p r�5er-wed--and-ttte�par-at-ed--i-n to-� e-e#ev�l ep� efl �s+te-�lesi�-f� p�y� , 1_l_ .�.. i daa--sty--eet-s- 1'• ^L.G��11 Vt� I,)1 VYfL7CL.TZ7 Rationale: Design standards for residential subdivisions in the UR zone are contained in WCC 20.20.310.

Comparable City zoning for the Urban Residential Medium designation is Residential Multi Planned. Rationale: The URM-24 zone has a minimum net density of 10 dwellings/acre and a maximum gross density of 24 dwellings/acre. However, there is no URM-24 zoning in the Bellingham UGA. The only URM zone in the Bellingham UGA is URM-18. i ne designation promotes an orderly transition from low density uses to higher density urban uses where predominantly residential uses complemented by compatible neighborhood scale recreation and commercial services are appropriate. 2.11 Locational Criteria 2.11.1 The URM zoningd-e" classifications -of sox to twenty four units pe aeFe should be applied to areas in the Urban Growth Area that are either adjacent to existing or planned residential developments containing similar density levels or adjacent to existing or planned commercial or light industrial developments. 2.11.2 Higher density developments should be located to take advantage of geed -access to public transit that is sustainable over the long term, arterial routes of travel, and commercial services and employment centers. 2.12 The predominant land use pattern includes single family detached dwelling units, apartments, condominiums, rooming houses, mobile home parks and retirement and convalescent centers, parks and other public uses. 2.13 For those URM areas currently served by sewer and water, a mix of housing types and densities is encouraged consistent with the adopted zo nz i n g . P: ahe4k-ban-Gf -awth Area 2.14 A mix of housing types and range of densities within the URM designation is encouraged particularly in areas close to industrial, commercial and other urban employment centers, adjacent to arterials and major connector streets, and where there is access to transit, parks and other recreational areas. - - - z- - - - - V Rationale: Design standards for residential subdivisions in the URM zone are contained in WCC 20.22.310 and facility design standards are in WCC 20.22.651. Wetlands are now regulated by the Critical Areas Ordinance. • Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 2.16 This desigrtat+efHalse-pr-evidea-receiv-ig--a-rea-far-transfer�f development-- ghtsr-Fredi Rationale: The Urban Residential Medium Density (URM) zoning district states "In the Urban Fringe Subarea, this district serves as a zoning overlay for the purpose of designating a receiving area for transfer of development rights credits ... " (WCC 20.22.012). However, later on in the URM text, it states: "Areas designated in the Comprehensive Plan and assigned a URM-24 zone district in the Urban Fringe Subarea, are considered receiving areas ... " (WCC 20.22.669). Only the URM- 24 zone allows for increased density based upon TDRs. However, there are no longer any URM-24 zones in the Urban Fringe (Bellingham UGA). Therefore, URM zone does not function as a TDR receiving area in the Bellingham UGA at the current time. 2.17 The City of Bellingham's design and development standards and guidelines and irnpac-t-fee or -di sees shallshould apply to all development in the Bellingham Urban Growth Area. Rationale: The County would have to conduct the analysis, and adopt an ordinance, as required by RCW 82.02.050-.110 prior to imposing impact fees in the URM zone. Additionally, the City of Bellingham generally does not extend public water and sewer outside city limits. Therefore, urban density residential development typically does not occur until after annexation. The Subarea Plan is a policy document, rather than a regulatory document. Therefore, "should" has been substituted for "shall.

Urban Residential - Mixed Use 2-492.18 It is the purpose of this zone designation to provide an orderly transition from rural to urban development by limiting densities and uses until services are available and then to provide for mixed uses in a manner that encourages a range of dwelling unit types and pedestrian access to convenience shopping and jobs while maintaining an overall single family character and property values for the neighborhoods created within this designation. Comparable City zoning for the Urban Residential - Mixed designation is Residential. Single. 2.202.19 Locational Criteria Areas appropriate for Urban Residential - Mixed (UR-MX) zoning. designation include the following: 2.20.1 Land areas within the City of Bellinghamis UGANerthern Urban Gewth-Afea that are of sufficient size to adequately accommodate the projected demands for residential, commercial, transportation and public uses_ for the twenty yea ptaFr 9vng-per+vd- Rationale: Multiple zoning districts provide land for the 20-year planning period, not just the UR-MX zone. 2.20.2 Land areas where a full range of urban services presently exists or can be economically and efficiently provided in the planning eriod. F. �W 2.20.3 Areas that contain an adequate supply of vacant land suitable for urban development. 2.21 Commercial uses will be clustered in a single center which is no larger than (2) two acres, excluding areas used for multi -family. The commercial uses shouldshall not exceed 2,500 square feet per building. 2.22 This designation a•fsc, provides a receiving area for transfer of development rights credits. 14 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 2.23 The Urban Residential - Mixed (UR-MX) zoning $designation is located in Bellingham's UGANorthern ' °rban-Gr-ewt",rea and can be developed at allowed densities upon provision ofa-n ..•,..►.ien v•� am nexati=an-agfee rnents in p l a c e desig n atier+4s-i-ntende d4a be develeped with a full range of urban services.

IBM; _6i -- - �- i- Rationale: Design standards for the UR-MX zone are referenced in WCC 20.24.653. Wetlands are now regulated by the Critical Areas Ordinance. They are also addressed in WCC 20.24.161(3)(e)). 2.26 Residential development should be located within walking distance of transit stations, designated commercial centers, parks and recreational areas, and other empla.yment centers where appropriate. Rationale: This change will provide greater consistency with WCC 20.24.010. 2.27 Neicihborhood centers allow a mix of commercialprofessional office, day care, and residential uses. Establishment of neighborhood eengmereia centers shall requires conditional use permit approval. Once a site has been approved, the full range ef pern9it-ted uses " be allowed; Rationale: A neighborhood center requires a conditional use permit in the UR-MX zone pursuant to WCC 2.24.161. Other uses, such as single family residences, may also be located on the site of a neighborhood center. However, depending on the circumstances, this may require further review by the hearing examiner (i.e. for change of the site plan or subdividing the land). 2.28 Establishment of mobile home parks require conditional use permit approval. 15 M Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 2.29 Commercial development should occur in nodes. Linear strips will be discouraged. 2.30 Businesses in thenei-ghborhaod centers will have their fronts located on arterial or collector streets; or located adjacent to a public square or neighborhood park; and beafe no less than one-half mile from an existing or approved commercial center or other commercial use or zone. PFOpesed rsk"i6F ee . Rationale: This language provides greater consistency with the existing language in WCC 2.24.161(2). 2.31 Neighborhood Cr enters should be visible and accessible to pedestrians from the streets and clearly defined through lighting, landscape, landmarks, and/or open space. 2.32 Parking for neighborhood centers will be located at the rear of the buildings with access from alleys or side streets. Rationale: The UR-MX zone applies this language to neighborhood centers (WCC 2.24.161(3)). Commercial Designations 3.1 The Urban Fringe Subarea GeffipFehensive Plan provides two I-),p efcommercial zoning designations in the Urban Growth Area, and addresses the needs and opportunities for the City of Bellingham, the Urban Growth Area, and larger regional area. T4Te-pelicies-and leeat�ieiiM �s re reie destg�lies en"0 Rationale: The proposal is to amend the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan boundary so that it coincides with the Bellingham UGA boundary. Therefore, the above statement is no longer necessary. General Commercial 3.2 The General Commercial- zoning designation is intended to provide a broad range of retail goods and services that will benefit a large trade area commensurate with demand. The designation also intends to facilitate safe and efficient circulation systems, provide methods to attain compatibility with surrounding noncommercial areas, and promote site design that will efficiently use available commercial land. Building design should take into account aesthetic and compatibility concerns. The General G. rner-cial designatiefr4s4rnpli-emented by the Genef­a4 Germmer-e+al -zene. Comparable City zoning for the General Commercial designation is Commercial, Planned. Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan does not include a "General Commercial" land use designation, although there is a "General Commercial" zoning designation. 16 O Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 3.3 Locational Criteria Areas appropriate for the General Commercial designation should conform to the following criteria: 3.3.1 Parcels that are served by arterials and/or collectors. 3.3.2 Parcels that have the potential of being served by urban level of service. 3.3.3 The designation should be located where there is a public need. 3.4 Whatcom County acknowledges existing patterns of commercial uses within the Urban Fringe Subarea. To provide for additional future commercial development, certain areas are designated General Commercial allowing a range of commercial uses including sales and servicing of vehicles, mobile homes and boats; eating and drinking establishments; professional offices service and retail establishments; commercial indoor and outdoor recreation; commercial wholesaling; multi -family dwellings; and public uses that are necessary for the function of the designation. 3.5 Ensure compatibility between General Commercial developments and the surrounding residential areas by identifying c+t-ft erformance; and development standards. 3.6 Encourage the location of new commercial development in proximity to other existing commercial uses, or oriented to serve part of a planned development. Neighborhood Commercial 3.7 The primary purpose of the Neighborhood Commercial is to provide convenience goods and services to the surrounding neighborhoods. Neighborhood Commercial areas are generals located nearin residential areas. Th, e 111 e i g h ba Fheedi-eR- szn toeeF ented by the r�� N g eed �-,..,.,.,,..,..EIal ' . Comparable City zoning would be 1 Gf NeighbeFhe e,d-Commercial Neighborhood. Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan does not include a "Neighborhood Commercial" land use designation, although there is a "Neighborhood Commercial" zoning designation. 3.8 Locational Criteria Areas suitable for the Neighborhood Commercial designation should conform to the following criteria: 17 ;.. Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 3.8.1 Parcels are served by arterials or collector streets. The designation is centrally located to the neighborhood it would serve. 3.8.2 The designation daesshaii not exceed five (5) acres. 3.8.3 The designation is to be located on property where ownership patterns and land parcelization is conducive for development. 3.9 The Neighborhood Commercial designation provides convenience goods and services to surrounding neighborhoods of urban residential densities. Rationale: The proposal is to amend the boundaries of the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan to match the Bellingham UGA. The Rural Comprehensive Plan designation will no longer be within the boundaries of the Urban Fringe Subarea. 3.10 Ensure compatibility between neighborhood commercial developments and the surrounding residential areas by identifying and applying eit�fl-qperformance-ie"Rg and development standards. Industrial and Airl2ort Designations 4.1 The Urban Fringe Subarea Eo•mtrehens+ve Plan provides e€ industrial and airport zoning designations: Heavy Impact Industrial, General Manufaeturing, Light Impact Industrial, Gateway Industrial, and Airport Operations in the Urban Growth Area. These designationsr and addresses the needs and opportunities for the City of Bellingham, the Urban Growth Area, and the larger regional area. Each designation intends to meet a range of industrial needs. The pelieies-aad �� ad •4t;n �g �1 •+at�arl-er•+t�o�--�,L«na --,�-��,�e�►-�-r e-a es Rationale: There is no longer any General Manufacturing zoning in the Bellingham UGA. Additionally, there is a pending proposal to annex the remaining Gateway Industrial zoning district into the City of Bellingham, If this annexation is approved by the City Council, the Gateway Industrial text, goals, and policies will be deleted. Heavy Impact Industrial Intent Statement: 4.2 The rationale of the Heavy Impact Industrial zoning designation in the Urban Fringe Subarea is to acknowledge existing heavy industrial uses situated in proximity to Bennett Drive, Marine Drive, and Roeder Avenue; to endorse a diverse economic base; and e Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 to attain compatibility between industrial activities and adjoining residential land uses. 4.3 Locational Criteria Areas appropriate for the Heavy Impact Industrial designation should conform to the following criteria: 4.3.1 Parcels that are generally flat, well drained, with sufficient soil bearing capacities. 4.3.2 Parcels within the existing Heavy Impact Industrial designation with sufficient land to provide buffers to non -industrial uses. 4.3.3 Proximity to transportation corridors (including direct access to identified truck routes not requiring the use of residential streets) and opportunities for interconnecting transportation modes (rail, truck routes, water and air) and urban services including sewer, water, storm drainage, fire and police protection and labor supply pools. 4.4 The Heavy Impact Industrial zoning designation takes advantage of truck, rail, freeway, air and water transportation access as well as proximity to potential labor pools. A full range of urban services should be available to the heavy industrial areas including sewer, water, storm drainage, and police and fire protection. �H ust4a4 are s ifnp#emented-b the Hea �a industrial zone. Comparable U Lf1G 1 fGCIV City zoning is Industrial, Planned. T n'-� allewed by--Whate-Geunty zoning (Urban Ffinge Subarea Heavy ridust+'industrial) i Commercial uses, that are not accessory to the primary industrial use, will be prohibited. Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan does not include a Heavy Impact Industrial (HII) land use designation, although there is a HII zoning designation. Some land uses in the HII zone require a conditional use permit and are not outright permitted uses. The HII zone allows certain commercial uses that are incidental to the primary industrial uses. 4.5 It is the policy of Whatcom County to evaluate the short and long range impacts to existing public facility, utility and transportation systems resulting from industrial development. If it is determined that industrial development will cause financial and physical impacts which exceed the scheduled capital improvement programs of various systems, Whatcom County w i I Is#a­Fl request industrial users to financially participate in the costs of upgrading theses&W systems. 19 M Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 4.6 Whatcom County should work with the City of Bellingham to manage and improve direct truck access to and from the HII area which minimizes truck traffic flows in adjacent and surrounding residential areas situated in the county and city. 4.7 Whatcom County wills#a+l encourage the appropriate governmental authorities, including; the Northwest Clean Air Agency "Air Pollution �� Department of Ecology and Environmental Protection Agency, to monitor pollution control and nuisance abatement. Whatcom County should assure that the design and location of industrial development will include consideration of pollutant sources and abatement methods, ns and critical areas which may be situated in or in proximity to the industrial area. The location, development, expansion and operation of industries should move toward minimizing pollution of all forms and its impact on other areas. 4.8 When practical, Whatcom County encourages industrial operations to take place within enclosed structures with the intent of minimizing potential light, glare, odors and noise impacts to adjoining residential uses. 4.9 Because the HII areas adjoin existing and planned residential areas situated in Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham, it is necessary to move toward obtaining mutual compatibility with theseseid residential areas. To obtain mutual compatibility, it is the policy of Whatcom County to permit those existing uses and future uses which will minimize hazards, pollution, nuisances and odors to surrounding residential areas. The following uses will not be permitted in the Heavy Impact Industrial zonedzonina district =.i in the Urban Fringe Subarea: manufacturing and processing of asbestos and products derived therefrom; petroleum refining and the primary manufacture of products derived directly therefrom; primary manufacturing of rubber, plastics, chemicals, paper, and primary metal industries. Light 1mpeEt-1ndust+iek uses -shalla--i-r Areas !A, 113, and industrial Ai=ea. Rationale: The Whatcom County Zoning Code establishes where light impact industrial uses may be located in the HII zone. 4.10 With the intent of fostering and promoting compatibility with surrounding residential land uses both in the county and the City of Bellingham, it is the policy of Whatcom County to require industrial users to provide a buffer which is situated on industrial land and adjoins the afeFengent en„d residential areas. Said -The buffer may alternately be provided off -site by written agreement in the form of a deed restriction on the off -site parcel that runs with the land and that isshall-lie filed with 20 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 the County Auditor. The off -site buffer agreement will shall be written so that it may be revised or rescinded in the event that land uses or zoning designations are changed in such a way that the buffer beeomes- no longer necessary. 4.11 Because certain existing industrial users are located adjacent to Bellingham Bay and use the shoreline or water transport for a portion of their operation, it is the policy of Whatcom County to require consistency with the Whatcom County Shoreline Management Program for proposed industrial uses or the expansion of industrially related uses which are proposed within the jurisdictional area of the Program. 4.12 The GG,rerz�Li�i� Matra r-eas- far-4ndustfta l aet vitier are 1 e� i r-r�Fve4heft4#e G&LtaWs- l +eav -I e s, box e-k--rtees�ve thari �i h r pac 1n ors riai ses-Ge-Ref-aHMar-rufaetttr-ifrg-uses-iflia6de rfanA_9,4abr-iea Fri -and distr-b-ut4efl--ef#in+-she-d Rid�act�vvItieifi iil-Dave a ieinral i on surr-euttdift-neig i a; k-€ffd-use areas.

Whatcom County will not permit expansion of the UGA in this areathis to ensure protection of Silver Creek, maintain the rural character of the surrounding area, and preserve a natural buffer area between the Cities of Ferndale and Bellingham. Gateway Industrial Whatcom County's economy is significantly influenced by its proximity to Canada and the large population in Vancouver, B.C., and this role is anticipated to continue in the future. The I-5 corridor and the Bellingham International Airport function as gateways into Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham. It is through these gateways that travelers form their first impressions of the community. To augment the positive impact of international markets, it is desirable to provide a reasonable supply of land for a variety of light industrial uses that would be attractive to travelers using the internationalmajor • .. ..i �tl is -zone to these appFepFiate feF a light OndUStFia' PaFl( setting.

A wider range of commercial uses are allowed within %4 mile of a freeway interchange, but some commercial uses are also allowed more than %4 mile from a freeway interchange. 23 1 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Light industrial parks frequently are large land areas that are master planned for aesthetic and functional compatibility, but can be composed of small tracts of land in different ownerships, where industrial uses occur independently but under overall design standards. To take advantage of the opportunity to present a positive business image of Bellingham and Whatcom County to travelers and because of the relatively small parcel sizes in the area, standards for site, landscaping, building, and signage design have been made integral parts ef the e-pl-a-n-mare included in the Gateway Industrial zoning text. -Fat. -her 'E1ei„g adepte. as pa o ' ; ef-p[aR-&y-a-R individual developer. 4.22 The Gateway Industrial designation is intended to provide concentrated areas, located in proximity to major transportation corridors that will present a favorable image of Bellingham and Whatcom County to travelers. In addition, in areas immediately adjacent to full freeway interchanges, uses that serves the traveling public are provided. The designation intends to facilitate safe and efficient circulation systems, provide methods to attain compatibility among mixed uses, and promote site design that is visually compatible with surrounding areas, including the Bellingham International Airport. The der -lying rationale tl alL-d Urban services must be available and will be extended in an efficient and rational growth pattern. The Gateway Pidiistf designatien is implefflented-by-th-L—Gatewayl zone. Comparable Bellingham zoning is Industrial, Planned, Mhoffs e# County way FRd e strial Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan does not include a "Gateway Industrial" land use designation, although there is a "Gateway Industrial" zoning designation. Supplying adequate land for industrial development over the 20-year planning period is achieved by designating multiple city and County industrial zoning districts, not just through the Gateway Industrial District in the County. The City of Bellingham recommends deleting "with provisions of County Gateway Industrial" because City zoning will be applied, and the City will determine appropriate land uses, upon annexation. 4.23 Locational Criteria Areas suitable for the Gateway Industrial designation should conform to the following criteria: 4.23.1 Proximity to major transportation corridors, Bellingham International Airport, transportation routes with all-weather access capability, and proximity to urban services. 24 851 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 4.23.2 Public water, sewer, on -site storm water drainage, and sufficient fire and police protection should either be presently available or should be feasibly provided during the planning period. 4.23.3 Proximity to potential labor pool. 4.23.4 Sufficient land to provide buffers between industrial operations and adjoining residential areas. 4.24 The Gateway Industrial designation should use limited areas having industrial access and traveler visibility in a manner that promotes the long range economic vitality of Bellingham and Whatcom County. Uses should be directly related to the access opportunities, or in certain areas, serve the traveling public. 4.25 The Gateway Industrial designation should enhance and maintain the natural and economic resources of Bellingham and Whatcom County through land use patterns that avoid linear strip development, while providing for safe and efficient vehicular movement, by requiring that individual sites are designed in a clustered or concentrated form of development instead of lining the road frontage. In addition, site design standards are contained within the zoning text to aid in the compatibility of mixed uses and the visual harmony with the surrounding areas. Airport Operations The Bellingham International Airport originated in 1940 as a single runway and developed into a three -runway configuration in 1941 when the Army Corp of Engineers supervised its construction with national defense funds. In 1947, the airport transferred ownership from the federal government to Whatcom County and in 1957 from the County to the Port of Bellingham. The federal government recognizes Bellingham International Airport as an integral part of the national aviation system and has supported development at the airport over the years through a variety of programs and projects including land acquisition; runway and taxiway construction and maintenance; lighting systems; crash/fire/rescue building construction; airport planning and others which have allowed the airport to expand and meet the traveling needs of a growing population. The Gcomparable City designations are is Institutional_ cmd Planned AirpeFt peratiens, 4.26 The primary purpose of the Airport Operations zv_ninc�desigation is to provide sufficient area for existing and future regional airport �,�operation..ts to servethe interest of Whatcom County.

Other uses should be consistent with kid-designiatad-bye the Bellingham International Airport Master Plan.P-, t's-Pgaster--Plan. 4.27 Locational Criteria 4.27.1 The Airport Operations (AO) District is located and implemented consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the Subarea C Plan. 4.27.2 The AO District should accommodate regional airport facilities and be served by adequate public services. 4.28 Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham encourage the Port of Bellingham to work closely with the Federal Aviation Administration to comply with federal laws relating to airport noise and enforce P.,�.';� Laws 96 193 (the Aviation Safety and "'else Abatement Act) and aiFeFaft) as well as te continue to develop operational procedures to minimize noise generated by general aviation activity at the airport. Rationale: Public Law 96-193 (the "Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979") and Public Law 90-411 ("Control and Abatement of Aircraft Noise and Sonic Boom," approved in 1968) were adopted many years ago. Sometimes federal laws are amended over time, so a general reference has been inserted above. 4.29 Encourage buffer greenbelts around the Airport Operations (AO) District to minimize impacts of noise generated by general aviation activities at the airport. 4.30 Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham recognize the existing and planned orientation of runways at the Bellingham International Airport. To minimize hazard and nuisance adjacent to and in the vicinity of the airport, land uses and densities shoulds+i-all be compatible with airport uses. 4.31 Residential development is discouraged in the day -night average sound level (Ldn) of 65+ noise exposure contours_ as mapped in the Bellingham International AirDort Master Plan. Builders are encouraged to include adequate sound insulation for residential structures located close to the airport. 4.32 Whatcom County will promote disclosure of airport noise through implementation of WCC 8.34. i a n g u a " agFeernent the nor-r�ra I+y` e pected activities and ne-se asseciated with air. 26 853 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 proposed -s-uibdliviis�i- - are situated Mthin - - y property - Et the pm 65 - r r Rationale: The County Zoning Ordinance and the Land Division Regulations do not require such "hold harmless" agreements. However, WCC 8.34, entitled "Airport Disclosure," was adopted by the County Council in 2005 as part of a package of airport/land use compatibility planning measures under the GMA. WCC 8.34 requires building permits, short plats and discretionary development permits for within one mile of the runway to contain a disclosure statement about airport noise. 4.33 Encourage the City of Bellingham to adopt airport/land use com atibilit rules applicable to groperties in the vicinity of the airport. Rationale: The Port of Bellingham, in an e-mail of 61812017, requested policy language to address land us%ompatibility for land uses in the City of Bellingham. The above policy would encourage the City to address this issue, although it is not as specific as the language suggested by the Port. Recreation and Open Space The primarypurpose of the Recreation and Open Space zoning designation is to ensure the continued gublic provision of a variety of services optimizing ublic investments conserving recreation and open space resources and uses and promoting compatibility between public functions and surrounding land uses. Comparable City zoning for the Recreation and Open Space designation is Public. R -u rah fa nds. Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan addresses Rural and Agricultural goals and policies. Additionally, the Comprehensive Plan states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA ... " (p. 2-24). Therefore, the Rural and Agricultural areas around the UGA will no longer be addressed in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. 27 MI Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 V. Urban Growth Area A. Urban Growth Areas Defined Under the Growth Management Act (GMA), cities and counties are required to designate areas where urban growth isshall --be encouraged and areas where urban development, is­s4:�atl--be discouraged. Urban growth, as defined by the GMA, "refers to growth that makes intensive use of land for the location of buildings, structures and impermeable surfaces to such a degree as to be incompatible with the primary use of such land for the production of food, other agricultural products, or fiber, or the extraction of mineral resources . ..LRCW 36.70A.030(19))." The purpose of designating urban growth areas is to promote compact urban development; ensure efficient use of land resources; and facilitate the economic provision of urban services. Urban growth areas should include areas and densities sufficient to provide for the urban growth that is projected to occur in the next twenty years. Urban growth requires urban levels of service, including: storm and sanitary sewer systems, domestic water systems, transportation, fire and police protection, public transit, schools, parks and other public utilities associated with urban areas. Since the intent of the GMA legislation is to ensure concurrency of facilities and services with projected growth and development, urban growth should be located first in areas already characterized by urban growth. These areas should have existing public facilities and service capacities to serve the development of the area. Second, urban growth should be located in areas that will be served by a combination of existing and planned public facilities and services; and finally in areas adjacent to areas characterized by urban growth, where adequate public facilities and services are not presently available.

Whatcom County and the cities worked together in a coordinated and consistent manner to develop a land capacity analysis and review and, as needed, update their comprehensive plans and UGAs in 2016. The GMA requires the next UGA review by 2024. The subarea plan update is not intended to undertake a new UGA review process. W 855 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 B. Factors Affecting Urban Growth Areas Land use development in the City of Bellingham and adjacent urban areas is the result of a variety of economic, social and physical variables. The direction, type, and timing of growth are influenced by the topography environmental constraints, market conditions, the extension of services including sewer and water,;- and the development of transportation systems.

It is not necessary to include these historical assumptions in the updated Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. The criteria used for evaluating Bellingham's urban growth areas are based on an analysis and evaluation of the following: 1. GMA requirements; 2. Whatcorn County Comprehensive Plan provisions relating to UGAs and UGA Reserves; 3. Population and employment projections; 4. Land supply needs for residential, commercial, industrial, and 29 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 recreational developments; 5. Urban service capacity, including sewer, water, and other infrastructure; 6. Existing and proposed#uture plans -recognizing consistency and compatibility with existing local and regional policies: including County -wide Planning Policies; and the City of Bellingham Comprehensive Plan;Wsi-ans-faFBe}Ei am -Gear; 7. Protection of wetlands and associated systems, sensitive enViFenrnen other critical areas, and open space; 8. Impact on designated Resource Lands 9. Existing land use; and 10. Requests for specific zoning by property owners. VI. Bellingham Urban Fringe Subarea Planning Area Maps Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan establishes basic land use designations and the Whatcom County Zoning Code establishes specific zoning designations throughout the county. There is no need to have a third set of maps in the subarea plan for designations that already exist on the zoning map. Therefore, only a map showing the new subarea boundaries is included below. 30 857 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 - Bellingham Urban Fringe Subarea 4,,w�=�„{,� 0 "'Go Co.

Incorporated City Rationale: The Urban Fringe Subarea currently includes Rural and Agriculture lands adjacent to the Bellingham UGA. However, the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan states "...

Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Rationale: The GMA requires a county -wide review of all UGAs every eight years. The last review was completed in 2016 and the next review will be conducted by 2024. Additionally, UGA Reserves are now the areas slated for future consideration for UGA status. These areas are shown on the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan map on a county -wide basis. IX. Comprehensive Plan Amendments The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan is a policy document that is used to guide the land use decisions affecting both the private and public sectors of the subarea. For the plan to function as an effective decision -making document, it must be flexible enough to weather changes in public attitudes, developmental technologies, economic forces, and legislative policy. The plan envisions two general types of plan amendments, which will be conducted in accordance with the Count 's Public Participation Plan. The first type is a review conducted every ei_ghtfive years. The GMA requires a periodic review of comprehensive plans every eight years to ensure that among other things, UGAs have sufficient area and densities to accommodate the projected urban growth over the 20- ear planning period. In association with this periodic review, new population and employment growth projections are formulated, a land capacity analysis is conducted capital facility plans are updated, and UGA boundaries are reviewed. During the eight year review, the City of Bellingham issues recommendations on whether or not to expand the UGA. The County Council adopts updates to the Whatcom Count Comprehensive Plan including any changes to the UGA boundaries. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan text, goals, and policies may be updated concurrent with or after the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan update.

The Guide Meridian Improvement Plan was repealed in 2016 (Ordinance 2016-035). Rationale: Some of these techniques already exist in the Whatcom County Zoning Ordinance. Others may not be applicable because urban density residential development typically occurs after annexation, when public water and sewer are provided. 71 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 - _LM jZ� �J�Jl A1�.�4Yt��l-�a■■l.liRVl��t R. 1•.. lam Rationale: The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan update process was completed in 2016. The Comprehensive Plan now states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA . . . " (p. 2-24). Therefore, the Rural and Agricultural areas around the UGA will no longer be addressed in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. There were no changes to the UGA in the 2016 Update. 72 • • Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Exhibit B Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Amendments Amend the Bellingham Urban Growth Area section of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan as follows: Bellingham Bellingham's Urban Growth Area (UGA) was first established in 1997 as a result of a lengthy public involvement process. Three geographical areas comprise the City's UGA: Bellingham's Northern UGA, the Geneva/Watershed Resource Protection UGA, and the Yew Street UGA. rOGO r west and east, s eity limits. Reeagnieing that uneeer-diniated and unplanned growth poses a feat te^the ,, eal . iFenme t and .,s le ee$nernme e�eFepr�e� use sa September 1997, the ,C�YhatLe-TemiT County Geuncil adepted an updated plan. This Plan was subsequently amended iff S999-1 174r The next Idpban FFinge Plan--Ltpdate willVnly include The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, along with the Urban Fringe Subarea UFS Plan, provides the policy framework for addressing the impacts and opportunities of growth in Bellingham's UGA. Together, these plans -it address County zoning designations, comparable City zoning upon annexation, land uses, development standards and Transfer of Development Rights from the Lake Whatcom Watershed to receiving areas in the UGA. They-P4eFv addresses a number of important objectives related to plan development, public participation, land use, housing, density, the natural environment, open space, parks, recreational opportunities, transportation, utilities and other public services. Urban Fringe Subarea Plan updates will be made in the context of the Growth Management Act planning goals, the Countywide Planning Policies, the UGA goals and policies of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and Bellingham's Comprehensive Plan. Goal 2U: Evaluate every eight years or as necessary Bellingham's Urban Growth Area to determine if the UGA is sufficient in size to accommodate twenty year growth projections, provide an adequate supply of affordable housing, industrial, commercial and recreational development and recognize historical development patterns and commitments for service. •11 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Policy 2U-1 Consider new data, research and public participation when conducting the UGA review. Policy 2U-2: Periodically update procedures for joint city/county review of development proposals in the UGA prior to annexation. Policy 2U-3: Work with Bellingham to identify and establish a system of neighborhood parks, greenbelts and open space to serve the urban growth area as it develops. Policy 2U-4: Review land supply analysis and consider appropriate urban growth area boundaries consistent with the Growth Management Act and Countywide Planning Policies. Policy 2U-5: Review and update the interlocal agreement with Bellingham, prior to expiration of the current interlocal agreement, to provide for: • Coordinated growth management and capital facility planning; • timing and provision of utility services and other urban services; • timing and procedures to be used for review of adequate land supply; • timing of annexations; revenue sharing formulas prior to and after annexation; • development standards and regulations; • joint City/County review of development proposals in the UGA; • affordable housing; and • transfer of development rights within the City of Bellingham. Policy 2U-6: Whatcom County and Bellingham should continue to coordinate protection and development within the Lake Whatcom Watershed. Policy 2U-7: Whatcom County and Bellingham should designate receiving areas within the City of Bellingham and its UGA for Transfer of Development Rights from the Lake Whatcom Watershed. Policy 2U-8: The City and Whatcom County should designate appropriate zoning and residential densities in Bellingham's UGA consistent with Whatcom County's Comprehensive Plan and Bellingham's Comprehensive Plan as amended. Policy 2U-9: Annexation should be considered prior to or concurrently with the extension of City sewer and water and prior to urban development. Annexations should be a logical extension of the city boundaries and not create unincorporated islands. Policy 2U-10: The Geneva and Hillsdale areas, located within the Lake Whatcom Watershed, are designated urban growth areas in order to allow the City of Bellingham to annex these areas. The 2 901 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 City has a long-term interest in the water quality of Lake Whatcom because the City is responsible for providing Bellingham with safe drinking water from the Lake. Whatcom County and the community also have long-term interests in the watershed based upon the special environmental sensitivity of the Lake Whatcom Watershed as a drinking water source and the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) findings requiring a reduction of phosphorus inputs into the lake. Therefore, only non -urban densities should be allowed in that portion of the Urban Growth Area within the watershed. Amend the Urban Growth Area Reserve section of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan as follows: Bellingham Urban Area The south Yew St. and the south Caitac areas have been designated as Urban Growth Area Reserves. Prior to redesignating the south Yew St. area to UGA, need for additional land capacity must be demonstrated, planning for adequate public facilities and services must be completed, and potential impacts on Lake Padden water quality must be addressed. Prior to re - designating the south Caitac area to UGA, need for additional land capacity must be demonstrated and planning for adequate public facilities and services must be completed. UGA Reserve areas should retain rural zoning until such time the unincorporated area is placed in the UGA. 3 902 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Exhibit C Whatcom County Zoning Code Amendments Urban Residential Inedium Density WRIM Disi Amend the URM District (WCC 20.22) as follows: KeWpMffiTrJri�I',L•.1 I .

Rationale: The County would have to conduct the analysis, and adopt an ordinance, as required by RCW 82.02.050-.110 prior to imposing impact fees in the URM zone. Additionally, the City of Bellingham generally does not extend public water and sewer outside city limits. Therefore, urban density residential development typically does not occur until after annexation. i -P FGvisie-na l Fe Fe nn to Ito w 44-ek4 r 4y-as-� as-2 A`u n ts j�,eFaefe-nm-y-b"e{I-elepIIrl:.ehd of+F.afwing --WL (a) PFOP Fty r....4r r[rll pr-epa Fe a.

M Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 rban Residential Mixed (UR-MX) District Amend the UR-MX District (WCC 20.24) as follows: 20.24.050 Permitted uses .052 Single-family attached dwellings; provided, that public sewer, water and, where identified by the appropriate Comprehensive Plan policies, stormwater collection and detention facilities serve the site, not more than four units are attached, and the number of dwelling units conforms to the density riri +'...�I ,, mil �a.rnln hall not ha 2lln.a:nc- With:,, requirements o the district. ki{aw�ve�a�; � a ;��,�nm v-cv'r`rn-r-+-rrT Rationale: According to the County Zoning Code definitions, "Single-family attached dwelling" means a group of two or more single-family dwelling units, each on a separate lot of record, which are joined to one another by a common party wall, but having separate outside entrances, and for the purposes of this code include townhouses (WCC 20.97.421, underlining added). Additionally, "Multifamily development" means two or more dwelling units on one lot except as provided in WCC 20.40.103 for agricultural housing (WCC 20.97.263, underlining added). Single family attached dwellings are defined differently than multifamily development, and there is no overlap between the two. Therefore, it is unnecessary to state that multifamily developments are prohibited (in a certain area) in a section of the code that does not address multifamily dwellings in the first place. Additionally, there is already a prohibition on multifamily dwellings in this area in WCC 20.24.132(3)). 20.24.130 Administrative approval uses. .132 Duplex and multifamily dwellings subject to the following limitations and the developer has conducted at least one neighborhood meeting prior to application for the purpose of hearing neighborhood concerns and suggestions regarding the proposal. Where being developed in an existing neighborhood characterized by residential development at densities of one dwelling per acre or greater, the uses listed in this section shall be administered as conditional uses rather than administrative approval uses; and are subject to the same criteria, requirements, bonuses and restrictions as if they were administrative approval uses: (1) Duplex and multifamily dwelling units do not comprise more than 25 percent of the total dwelling units allowed for the entire site. (2) Duplex and multifamily dwelling units are constructed at the same time as, or after, at least 50 percent of the single-family units in an approved development.

Rationale: Map 2, which depicted the Bennett Dr. area southeast of the Airport, is proposed for deletion from the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. Therefore, a written description of this area has been inserted above. Additionally, the only UR-MX zoning districts in existence at the current time are located within the Bellingham UGA.

Public notice shall be published in the newspaper of record at least five calendar days prior to the decision date. This is in addition to the requirement of WCC 20.84.235(2). (Ord. 2016-035 § 1 (Exh. A), 2016; Ord. 2001-038 § 2, 2001). Rationale: There is only one Light Impact Industrial district in the Bellingham UGA that is both southeast of the airport and north of Alderwood Ave. Therefore, it is not necessary to refer to a map (which is proposed for deletion). 7 e Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Amend the "Prohibited uses" section of the Light Impact Industrial District (WCC 20.66.200) as follows: .203 In the Bellingham Urban Growth AreaWFbaM Fringe Subafema the following uses are prohibited: petroleum refinery and the primary manufacturing of products thereof, primary manufacturing and processing of rubber, plastics, chemicals, paper, asbestos and products derived thereof, and primary metal industries. (Ord. 2016-011 § 1 (Exh. L), 2016; Ord. 99-078, 1999; Ord. 99-070 § 2, 1999). Rationale: The term "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better sense of where this prohibition applies.

Rationale: The term "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better sense of where this regulation applies. 911 Whatcom County Planning Commission Recommendations January 11, 2018 Amend the "Buffer area" section of the Heavy Impact Industrial District (WCC 20.68.550) as follows: .552 To implement the buffer requirements of this district, minimum setbacks for heavy industrial buildings and accessory structures shall be established consistent with the following options: (1) If a planting screen is not provided by the industrial user and no natural vegetative screening exists, the minimum setback(s) shall be 660 feet, as measured from the edge of the district boundary. The setback area may be used for security roads, parking, or open space. (2) If natural sight -obscuring and dense vegetation exists, the minimum setback(s) shall be 250 feet, as measured from the district boundary; provided, that a minimum width of 50 feet of natural vegetation is retained. The remainder of the setback(s) may be used for security roads, parking, or open space.

(5) In no case shall the northern and western boundaries of the Cherry Point Heavy Industrial area not contiguous to another industrial zone be less than 660 feet, nor the natural vegetation removed except for parking and security or protective uses in accordance with Heavy Impact Industrial Policy 1.05 of the Cherry Point -Ferndale Subarea Comprehensive Plan. Rationale: The term "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better sense of where this regulation applies. Amend the "Performance standards" section of the Heavy Impact Industrial District (WCC 20.68.700) as follows: 20.68.708 Appearance. New facilities developed in the Bellingham Urban Growth AreaPFinge c,.► arela shall be designed, constructed, operated, and maintained so as to be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity, and such uses shall not change the essential character of the same area. (Ord. 99-078, 1999). Rationale: The term "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better sense of where this regulation applies. 10 912 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Frin a Subarea Plan and Related Amendments PlannirlS Commission Findings, Page 1 WHATCOM COUNTY PLANNING COMMISISON Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, and Zoning Amendments FINDINGS OF FACT AND REASONS FOR ACTION Background Information The subject proposal consists of amendments to the: a. Urban Fringe Subarea Plan; b. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy; and c. Whatcom County Zoning Code (Title 20). 2. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan was updated in August 2016 (Ordinance 2016-034). This update included the county -wide urban growth area (UGA) review. The existing Bellingham UGA was retained in this process. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update involves review of the text, goals, policies, and maps of the Subarea Plan. However, the Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process completed in 2016. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan states "... The next Urban Fringe Plan update will only include the Bellingham UGA..." (p. 2-24). Therefore, the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan boundary is being modified to match the Bellingham UGA boundary. The Urban Fringe Subarea will no longer include Rural and other lands outside the UGA. 4. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2L-2 is to "Retain and periodically review the adopted Subarea Plans" including the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1997 (with amendments in 1999, 2004, and 2009). The County Council passed Resolution #2017-016 in March 2017 initiating review and update of the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related provisions of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. State Environmental Policy Act 6. A Determination of Non -significance was issued by the SEPA Responsible Official on September 29, 2017. File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Page 2 Comprehensive Plan/Subarea Plan Approval Criteria 7. The criteria of WCC 2.160.080, summarized below, must be satisfied in order to approve a comprehensive plan amendment. • The amendment conforms to the requirements of Growth Management Act (GMA), is internally consistent with the county -wide planning policies and is consistent with any interlocal planning agreements. • Further studies made or accepted by the department of planning and development services indicate changed conditions that show a need for the amendment. • 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 shall be considered: o The anticipated effect upon the rate or distribution of population growth, employment growth, development, and conversion of land as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. o The anticipated effect upon the ability of the County and/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. o Anticipated impact upon designated agricultural, forest and mineral resource lands. • The amendment does not include or facilitate spot zoning. • Transfer of development rights may be required if an urban growth area is expanded. Subarea Plans 8. The GMA, in a section entitled "Optional Elements," states that a "comprehensive plan may include, where appropriate, subarea plans, each of which is consistent with the comprehensive plan" (RCW 36.70A.080(2)). 9. The Western Washington Growth Management Hearings Board has stated that: ... Subarea plans are optional elements of a comprehensive plan. While a jurisdiction has discretion to utilize subarea plans, RCW 36.70A.080(2) requires that subarea plans be consistent with the comprehensive plan and are subject to the goals and requirements of the GMA. Subarea plans are, as the prefix "sub" implies, a subset of the comprehensive plan of a jurisdiction and they typically 2 ME File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Page 3 augment or amplify policies contained in the comprehensive plan. There is no GMA requirement that a subarea plan contain all the mandatory elements required by RCW 36.70A.070... (Campbell v. San Juan County, Case No. 09-2- 0014, Final Decision and Order, January 27, 2010). 10. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan is an optional element that Whatcom County has chosen to include, at the County's discretion, in the County's Comprehensive Plan. Intergovernmental Coordination / Public Participation 11. GMA planning goals are set forth in RCW 36.70A.020. The GMA citizen participation and coordination planning goal is to "Encourage the involvement of citizens in the planning process and ensure coordination between communities and jurisdictions to reconcile conflicts" (RCW 36.70A.020(11)). 12. County and City of Bellingham staff met over a four month period (April — August 2017) to discuss proposed changes to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, related changes to the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, and related changes to the Whatcom County Zoning Code. 13. The Whatcom County Planning Commission held a work session on the Draft Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related amendments on December 14, 2017. 14. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Draft Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and related amendments on January 11, 2018. Urban Growth 15. GMA planning goal # 1 is to "Encourage development in urban areas where adequate public facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner" (RCW 36.70A.020(1)). Under the GMA, urban growth areas have been designated pursuant to RCW 36.70A.I10. 16. County -wide Planning Policy F-I I states "The county and the City of Bellingham shall establish, through the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update, the policies, zoning and criteria to comply with current state Growth Management law." 17, County -wide Planning Policy F-12 states "... The revised Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and a new Interlocal Agreement between the City of Bellingham and the county will address sequence and timing for annexations, subdivisions, and urban levels of development." 18. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan contains goals and policies supporting the Bellingham Urban Growth Area designation including Goal 2U and Policies 2U-1 through 2U-10. 915 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Page 4 19. The Bellingham UGA was adopted by the Whatcom County Council in 1997, when the Comprehensive Plan was originally adopted pursuant to the GMA (Ordinance 97-023). 20. The Bellingham UGA was reduced in size in the 2009 UGA review (Ordinance 2009- 071). 21. The Bellingham UGA was retained in the 2016 UGA review (Ordinance 2016-034). 22. The amended Urban Fringe Subarea Plan includes a map of the existing Bellingham UGA, which is consistent with the UGA boundaries in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Low Density Sprawl 23. GMA planning goal # 2 is to "Reduce the inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling, low -density development" (RCW 36.70A.020(2)). 24. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan, and Whatcom County Zoning Code protect land from sprawling low -density development because: a. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan encourages net densities of 6 to 24 dwellings/acre in Bellingham (Goal 2P). b. In the Lake Whatcom Watershed, urban residential zoning in the Bellingham UGA allows one dwelling/five acres if public water and sewer are available. When public water and sewer are not provided, the maximum density is one dwelling/ten acres. c. Outside the Lake Whatcom Watershed, urban residential zoning in the Bellingham UGA may be developed at urban densities if public water and sewer are provided. When public water and sewer are not provided, the maximum density is one dwelling/ten acres. Transportation 25. GMA planning goal # 3 is to "Encourage efficient multimodal transportation systems that are based on regional priorities and coordinated with county and city comprehensive plans" (RCW 36.70A.020(3)). 26. County -wide Planning Policy J-2 states that "Whatcom County jurisdictions shall encourage alternative modes of transportation to the single occupancy vehicle..." 27. Transportation planning is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.6 is to "Promote development that supports and enhances efficient public transportation and an intermodal transportation 4 916 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findin s,, Page 5 system." Additionally, other policies in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan address transportation issues in a variety of land use designations in the Subarea. Housing 28. GMA planning goal # 4 is to "Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic segments of the population of this state, promote a variety of residential densities and housing types, and encourage preservation of existing housing stock" (RCW 36.70A.020(4)). 29. County -wide Planning Policy G-2 states that "The county and the cities shall plan for a range of housing types and costs commensurate with their affordable housing needs." 30. Housing is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Urban residential zones in the UGA allow a variety of densities and housing types upon provision of public water and sewer. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.3 is to "Provide opportunities for a diversity of housing types in the Urban Growth Area." The City of Bellingham generally does not extend public water and sewer outside city limits. Therefore, higher density housing in the Bellingham UGA typically occurs after annexation. Economic Development 31. GMA planning goal # 5 is to "Encourage economic development throughout the state that is consistent with adopted comprehensive plans, promote economic opportunity for all citizens of this state, especially for unemployed and for disadvantaged persons, promote the retention and expansion of existing businesses and recruitment of new businesses, recognize regional differences impacting economic development opportunities, and encourage growth in areas experiencing insufficient economic growth, all within the capacities of the state's natural resources, public services, and public facilities" (RCW 36.70A.020(5)). 32. County -wide Planning Policy I-7 states: Economic vitality and job development shall be encouraged in all the cities and in designated areas of the county consistent with community growth policies, particularly addressing adequacy of transportation corridors, public transportation, impacts on the environment, and the ability of the area to provide urban services. 33. Economic development issues are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, the Urban Fringe Subarea contains policies relating to commercial, industrial, and airport zones to facilitate economic opportunities in the Bellingham UGA. 917 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Pa e 6 Property Rights 34. GMA planning goal # 6 states that "Private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation having been made. The property rights of landowners shall be protected from arbitrary and discriminatory actions" (RCW 36.70A.020(6)). 35. The Attorney General's Advisory Memorandum and Recommended Process for Evaluating Proposed Regulatory or Administrative Actions to Avoid Unconstitutional Takings of Private Property (December 2015) has been reviewed by legal counsel and no warning signals that are associated with the takings analysis have been identified for the subject amendments. Permitting 36. GMA planning goal # 7 states "Applications for both state and local government permits should be processed in a timely and fair manner to ensure predictability" (RCW 36.70A.020(7)). 37. Permitting issues are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan on a county -wide basis. Resource Lands and Industries 38. GMA planning goal # 8 is to "Maintain and enhance natural resource -based industries, including productive timber, agricultural, and fisheries industries. Encourage the conservation of productive forest lands and productive agricultural lands, and discourage incompatible uses" (RCW 36.70A.020(8)). 39. County -wide Planning Policy I-9 states: The County and the cities recognize the need for the protection and utilization of natural resources and resource lands including agricultural, mineral, forestry and fishing. As part of a broad based economy, productive timber, agriculture and fisheries industries should be supported in a sustainable manner. 40. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan boundary is being revised to match the Bellingham UGA boundary. There are no designated agriculture, forestry, or mineral resource lands within the revised Urban Fringe Subarea boundary. Open Space/Recreation/Fish & Wildlife 41. GMA planning goal # 9 is to "Retain open space, enhance recreational opportunities, conserve fish and wildlife habitat, increase access to natural resource lands and water, and develop parks and recreation facilities" (RCW 36.70A.020(9)). 0 W-01 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Page 7 42. County -wide Planning Policy H-1 states: Adequate open space is vital to the quality of life and sense of place in Whatcom County. The county, cities, Port of Bellingham, and other appropriate jurisdictions should coordinate protection of linked greenbelts, within and between Urban Growth Areas, parks, and open space to protect wildlife corridors and to enhance recreational opportunities, public access and trail development. 43. Open space, recreation, and fish & wildlife habitat are primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.16 is to "Promote a coordinated effort to identify and prioritize interconnected natural areas and features for preservation to protect water quality and provide habitat, recreation, open space and wildlife corridors." Environment 44. GMA planning goal # 10 is to "Protect the environment and enhance the state's high quality of life, including air and water quality, and the availability of water" (RCW 36.70A.020(10)). 45. County -wide Planning Policy N-1 states: The cities, and the county, in cooperation with other municipal corporations, tribal governments, federal and state agencies, and public and private utilities shall cooperate in the protection of water resources and in drawing upon said water to support growth. 46. The environment is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.16 is to "Promote a coordinated effort to identify and prioritize interconnected natural areas and features for preservation to protect water quality and provide habitat, recreation, open space and wildlife corridors." Public Facilities 47. GMA planning goal # 12 is to "Ensure that those public facilities and services necessary to support development shall be adequate to serve the development at the time the development is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current service levels below locally established minimum standards" (RCW 36.70A.020(12)). 48. County -wide Planning Policy D-3 states: Cities shall develop a plan to provide urban level water and sewer services within their Urban Growth Areas... 7 919 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning. Commission Findings, Page 8 49. The City of Bellingham, Water District 2, Water District 7, the Lake Whatcom Water and Sewer District and several other purveyors currently plan and provide water service to various parts of the UGA. The City of Bellingham plans water service for unserved parts of the UGA, but physical service is typically provided after annexation. 50. The City of Bellingham and the Lake Whatcom Water and Sewer District currently plan and provide sewer service to various parts of the UGA. The City of Bellingham plans sewer service for unserved parts of the UGA, but physical service is typically provided after annexation. 51. The City of Bellingham Fire Department provides service inside the city limits. Fire Districts 4, 8, South Whatcom Fire Authority, and North Whatcom Fire & Rescue currently serve the Bellingham UGA. 52. The Bellingham, Meridian, and Ferndale School Districts serve the UGA. 53. Capital facility planning for water, sewer, fire protection, and schools is primarily addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan (Chapter 4 and Appendix E — Whatcom County 20-Year Capital Facilities Plan). However, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Policy 1.5 is to "Direct urban growth and development into areas where City public water and sewer services are available or can be readily provided." Historical and Archaeological 54. GMA planning goal # 13 is to "Identify and encourage the preservation of lands, sites, and structures, that have historical or archaeological significance" (RCW 36.70A.020(13)). 55. The historical and archaeological resources are addressed in the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. Accommodation of Growth 56. RCW 36.70A.110(2) indicates that the county and each city within the county shall include areas and densities sufficient to permit the urban growth that is projected to occur in the county or city for the succeeding twenty-year period in the UGA. 57. RCW 36.70A.115 indicates that Counties and cities shall ensure that, taken collectively, adoption of and amendments to their comprehensive plans and/or development regulations provide sufficient capacity of land suitable for development within their jurisdictions to accommodate their allocated housing and employment growth, including commercial, industrial, medical, governmental, educational and institutional uses. 58. State rules relating to the GMA indicate that the land capacity analyses required under RCW 36.70A.115 are primarily to take place at the periodic UGA reviews that counties WE File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findin s, Page 9 and cities undertake every eight years. However, land capacity estimates are recommended during review of other comprehensive plan and development regulation amendments, if they increase or decrease allowed densities (WAC 365-196-325(1)(b) and (d))• 59. A land capacity analysis for the Bellingham UGA was conducted at the time of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan update/UGA review demonstrating that it can accommodate allocated population and employment growth. 60. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update will not increase or decrease allowed densities. Therefore, a new land capacity analysis is not required. 61. The Comprehensive Plan update/UGA review was completed in 2016. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is intended to provide consistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. The Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process. Interlocal Agreement 62. The Interlocal Agreement Between the City of Bellingham and Whatcom County Concerning Planning, Annexation and Development within the Bellingham UGA was approved by both jurisdictions in April 2012. 63. The Interlocal Agreement states: Whatcom County will review the UGA in accordance with the schedule in RCW 36.70A.130 to ensure that the UGA can accommodate the urban growth projected to occur in the 20-year planning period established by the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. The County and City will collaborate throughout the UGA review process. The City will submit recommendations to the County in accordance with the schedule for joint County and City review of the UGA and the County will consider the recommendations prior to making any changes to the City's UGA... (Section 2.C, pp. 4 and 5). 64. Whatcom County, in consultation with the City of Bellingham, concluded the UGA review process in August 2016 with the adoption of Ordinance 2016-034. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.130, the next UGA review must occur by 2024. This Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update is not intended to re -open the UGA review process. 65. The Interlocal Agreement states "For residential zoning districts in annexation areas, the City agrees to adopt appropriate urban densities consistent with the State GMA, City Comprehensive Plan, the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and the overall density goals of the County Comprehensive Plan (Section 3.E, p. 8). 921 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Plannin Commission Findings, Page 10 66. Comparable city zoning is identified for residential areas in the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan. Further Studies/Changed Conditions 67. The original Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1984 and repealed in 1997. A revised Urban Fringe Subarea Plan was adopted in 1997, with amendments in 1999, 2004 and 2009. 68. The periodic update of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan was completed in August of 2016 (Ordinance 2016-034) in accordance with RCW 36.70A.130. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan provides direction for land use policy in Whatcom County. Subarea plans are to be consistent with the comprehensive plan (RCW 36.70A.080). The subject amendments to the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan provide consistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. 69. Some of the information in the Subarea Plan has become outdated or unnecessary. For example, some of the Bellingham UGA has been annexed and there is no longer General Manufacturing zoning within the UGA. Additionally, it is no longer necessary to include City of recommendations from the 1997 Subarea Plan two decades later in an updated Subarea Plan. 70. A new Interlocal Agreement was approved by Whatcom County and the City of Bellingham in 2012. Additionally, Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2U-5 addresses reviewing and updating the Interlocal Agreement. Therefore, it is not necessary to address the Interlocal Agreement in detail in the Subarea Plan. Public Interest 71. It is in the public interest to amend the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan in order to: a. Eliminate inconsistency with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan; b. Eliminate inconsistency with the Whatcom County Zoning Code and maps; c. Eliminate inconsistency with City of Bellingham policy; and d. Delete outdated and unnecessary information. Spot Zoning 72. The Whatcom County Zoning Code defines illegal spot zoning as follows: "Illegal spot zoning" means a zoning action by which a smaller area is singled out of a larger area or district and specially zoned for a use classification totally 10 922 File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Related Amendments Planning Commission Findings, Page 11 different from, and inconsistent with, the classification of surrounding land and not in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Spot zoning is zoning for private gain designed to favor or benefit a particular individual or group and not the welfare of the community as a whole (WCC 20.97.186). 73. There are no proposed rezones associated with the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update. Transfer of Development Rights for Expanding UGAs 74. There are no UGA expansions associated with the Urban Fringe Subarea Plan update. Zoning Text Amendments 75. WCC 20.90.050 indicates that proposed zoning amendments must be evaluated in relationship to the goals and policies of the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. 76. The subject proposal includes text amendments for the following zoning districts: a. Urban Residential Medium Density (URM); b. Urban Residential Mixed (UR-MX); c. Gateway Industrial (GI); d. Light Impact Industrial (LII); and e. Heavy Impact Industrial (HII). 77. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Goal 2D is to "Refine the regulatory system to ensure accomplishment of desired land use goals in a fair and equitable manner." 78. The text amendments in the URM and UR-MX zones include eliminating requirements imposing City of Bellingham impact fees on development in the UGA. This amendment recognizes that the County would have to conduct the analysis, and adopt an ordinance, as required by RCW 82.02.050-.110 prior to imposing City of Bellingham impact fees in unincorporated areas. In order for any impact fees to be fair and equitable, they must meet the requirements of state law. 79. Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan Goal IA is to "Ensure that government activities, regulations and policies are transparent, accountable and easy to understand." 80. The text amendments to the GI, LII, and HII zones are primarily housekeeping amendments. These amendments recognize that maps will be deleted from the Subarea Plan. They also replace the term "Urban Fringe Subarea" with "Bellingham Urban Growth Area" as it is a more descriptive term that may provide the public with a better 11 Ml File # PLN2017-00001 January 11, 2018 Urban Frin a Subarea Plan and Related Amendments _ Planning Commission Findings, Page 12 sense of where the regulations apply. These amendments should make the zoning code a little easier to understand. CONCLUSIONS The subject Urban Fringe Subarea Plan and Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan amendments are consistent with the approval criteria of WCC 2.160.080. 2. The subject Whatcom County Zoning Code amendments are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. RECOMMENDATION Based upon the abrsvc findinUs and conclusions. the Whatcom County Planning Commission recommends approval of: 1. Exhibit A, Urban Fringe Subarea Plan Amendments; 2. Exhibit B.

This proposed ordinance is developed in accordance with the Washington State Local Project Review Act (Chapter 36.70B RCW), recent Washington State Supreme Court decisions, as well as various Washington State jurisdictions including Snohomish County, Skagit County, Pierce County, City of Bainbridge Island and City of Bellingham. In 1995, the state adopted legislation regarding procedures for county land use and development applications. The intent of the legislation was to ensure applications throughout Washington State were processed in a timely, predictable manner, and that different applications involving the same project could be consolidated. Whatcom County adopted a new Chapter 2.33 in 1996 in response to the state legislation. Chapter 2.33 contained many of the project permit review procedures, but many procedural sections remained or were subsequently added in various sections of the County code. These procedural sections predominately involve requirements for application materials, review timelines, legal notifications, public hearings and appeals. Staff now proposes consolidating all land use and development procedures in a new land use and development procedures code, Title 22. Predominately, the proposed amendments move code from various sections to Title 22, include grammatical improvements and do not alter the substance of the procedures. There are several areas where substantive changes were made to improve clarity and predictability, to remove inconsistencies and to address recent court cases. Those changes are discussed in depth in the staff report but generally include: • Vesting and expiration; 926 • Designate Superior Court as the appeal body for hearing examiner decisions; ■ Allow a waiver for preapplication meetings and clarify which project types require a preapplication meeting; • Add sections to clarify the definition of "quasi-judicial actions;" • Alter time limits for major project permits and planned unit developments to meet the statutory timeframes in Chapter 36.7013 RCW; • Remove an optional review by Planning Commission for Major Project Permits; • Reword current WCC 2.33.090(G) to provide clarity and a process for dispute resolution with the director; ■ Add specific requirements for written appeal and; • Standardize review and comment timeframes to 14 or 28 days. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on October 26, 2017 and recommended approval of the attached draft with a vote of 7-0. Staff would like to present and discuss the draft with the Planning and Development Committee and schedule the draft ordinance for introduction. For your review a clean version and strikethrough version of Title 22 (Exhibit A) and all amended titles (Exhibits B-E) have been included in your packet. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Amy Keenan, Senior Planner, at 778-5943 or Nick Smith, Permit Center Specialist, at 778-5913. Thank you.

Notice of the subject amendment was submitted to the Washington State Department of Commerce on September 20, 2017. 4. Notice of the Planning Commission public hearing for the amendments was published in the Bellingham Herald on October 13, 2017. 1 5. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed amendments on October 26, 2017. 6. In 1995 the State Legislature adopted legislation regarding procedures for county land use and development applications (ESHB 1724; 36.70B RCW). The intent of the legislation was to ensure that applications were processed in a timely, predictable manner, and that different applications involving the same project could be consolidated. 7. Whatcom County Code adopted a new Chapter 2.33 in 1996 in response to the 1995 state legislation. This new chapter contained many of the project permit review procedures, but many procedural sections remained in various sections of the County code, including Title 16 Environment, Title 20, Zoning, Title 21 Land Division Regulations, and Title 23 Shoreline Management. 8. The proposed Title 22 Land Use and Development Procedures would contain administrative procedures that are now located throughout different titles and chapters in Whatcom County Code, eliminating redundancy and, in some cases, inconsistency between code chapters. 9. The proposed Chapter 22.05 Project Permit Procedures would consolidate procedures for project permits in one place. 10. RCW 36.70B.020(4) defines project permits as "...any land use or environmental permit or license required from a local government for a project action, including but not limited to building permits, subdivisions, binding site plans, planned unit developments, conditional uses, shoreline substantial development permits, site plan review, permits or approvals required by critical area ordinances, site -specific rezones authorized by a comprehensive plan or subarea plan, but excluding the adoption or amendment of a comprehensive plan, subarea plan, or development regulations..." 11. Because vesting principles apply to applications beyond those described in Title 20 Zoning, the vesting provisions are proposed to be moved from Title 20 to the new Title 22, which applies to all land use and development projects. The revised wording in the proposed 22.05.060 uses state law's phrase, "zoning or other land use control ordinances" so that County regulations will be consistent with state statute and case law. 12. RCW 19.27.095(1) states, "A valid and fully complete building permit application for a structure, that is permitted under the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date of the application shall be considered under the building permit ordinance in effect at the time of application, and the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect 2 929 on the date of application." 13. RCW 58.17.033(1) states, "A proposed division of land, as defined in RCW 58.17.020, shall be considered under the subdivision or short subdivision ordinance, and zoning or other land use control ordinances, in effect on the land at the time a fully completed application for preliminary plat approval of the subdivision, or short plat approval of the short subdivision, has been submitted to the appropriate county, city, or town official." 14. The proposed Chapter 22.10 Legislative Procedures combines procedures for comprehensive plan amendments and zoning amendments (including both zoning map changes and code text amendments), from current Chapters 2.160 and 20.90, respectively. 15. The proposed Chapter 22.20 Land Use and Development Code Interpretation Procedures would add procedures for citizens to request PDS interpretations of the County's land use and development codes to clarify conflicting or ambiguous wording. Interpretation procedures commonly appear in other jurisdictions' codes, but Whatcom County Code has no such provision. 16. The proposed Chapter 22.25 would contain the fee provisions now contained in WCC 20.04.090 - .092 so that it would apply to other development -related titles of the Whatcom County Code beyond Title 20 Zoning. 17. Some highly detailed requirements currently found in the code are proposed to be removed from code and consolidated into an Administrative Manual that can be updated without requiring a code amendment. 18. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan supports streamlining regulations. CONCLUSIONS 1. The amendments to the zoning code are in the public interest. 2. The amendments are consistent with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Whatcom County Council that: Section 1. Amendments to the Whatcom County Code are hereby adopted as shown on Exhibits A through E. 3 930 ADOPTED this _ day of WHATCOM COUNTY COUNCIL WHATCOM COUNTY, WASHINGTON ATTEST: Dana Brown -Davis, Council Clerk APPROVED as to form: Ci ' y Prosecutor Gf , 2018.

As indicated in the table in subsection (1), project permits are subject to the following additional requirements: (a) Preapplication conference subject to Title 23 Shoreline Master Program. (b) Single family residential uses in critical areas or critical area buffers, except all uses in geological hazardous areas and setbacks. (c) Shoreline Permit public hearing decision determined pursuant to Title 23 Shoreline Master Program. If a public hearing is required the Shoreline Permit shall be processed as a Type III application. (d) Final decision filed with the Washington State Department of Ecology. (e) All uses in geological hazardous areas and setbacks and all non -single family residential uses in critical areas or critical area buffers. (f) Building permit preapplication conference, subject to WCC 15.04.020(A)(3)(a). (g) The hearing examiner may choose to consult with the development standards technical advisory committee concerning technical matters relating to land division applications. [from WCC 21.01.170] (h) Whatcom County shall consider an appeal of a decision on a shoreline substantial development permit, shoreline variance, or shoreline conditional use only when the applicant waives his/her right to a single appeal to the shoreline hearings board. When an applicant has waived his/her right to a single appeal, such appeals shall be processed in accordance with the appeal procedures of section WCC 23.60.150.H. (i) Except that appeals of Title 15 fire and building code requirements shall be made to the board of appeals per current building code, as adopted in WCC 15.04.010. 22.05.030 Consolidated permit review.' The county shall integrate and consolidate the review and decision on two or more project permits subject to this chapter that relate to the proposed project action unless the applicant requests otherwise. Consolidated Type I, II, III and IV permits shall be reviewed under the process required for the permit with the highest process type number per WCC 22.05.020. Level IV is considered the highest and Level I is considered the lowest process type. 22.05.040 Preapplication conference. The purpose of a preapplication conference is to assist applicants in preparing development applications for submittal to the county by identifying applicable regulations and procedures. It is not intended to provide a staff recommendation on future permit decisions. Preapplication review does not constitute acceptance of an application by the county nor does it vest an application, unless otherwise indicated in Whatcom County Code. 1 RCW 36.70B.060(3) 4 935 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (1) A preapplication conference is required as indicated in WCC 22.05.020, unless the director or designee grants a written waiver. For other permits, the applicant may request a preapplication conference. (2) The county shall charge the applicant a fee for a preapplication conference per the Unified Fee Schedule. If the county makes a determination of completeness on a project permit submitted within one year of the notice of site -specific submittal requirements per subsection (6) of this section, the preapplication fee shall be applied to the application cost. (3) It is the responsibility of the applicant to initiate a preapplication conference through a written application. The application shall, at a minimum, include all items identified on the preapplication form and the department's administrative manual. The applicant may provide additional information to facilitate more detailed review. (4) A preapplication conference shall be scheduled as soon as possible and held no later than 30 calendar days from the date of the applicant's request, unless agreed upon by the applicant and the county. (5) The county shall invite the appropriate city to the preapplication meeting if the project is located within that city's urban growth area or which contemplates the use of any city utilities. Notice shall also be given to appropriate public agencies and public utilities, if within 500 feet of the area submitted in the application. [Subsection (5) wording is proposed to be moved from 21.01.090(2) so the requirement to involve cities in preapplication review would apply to all project permits, not just subdivisions. This is consistent with adopted interlocal agreements.] (6) The county should provide the applicant with notice of site -specific submittal requirements for application no later than 14 calendar days from the date of the conference. (7) A new preapplication conference shall be required if an associated project permit application is not filed with the county within one year of the notice of site - specific submittal requirements per subsection (6) or the application is substantially altered, unless waived per WCC 22.05.040(1). 22.05.050 Application and determination of completeness. (1) Project permit applications shall be submitted using current forms provided by the review authority. The submittal shall include: all applicable fees per Chapter 22.25 WCC, all materials required by the department's administrative manual, and all items identified in the preapplication notice of site -specific submittal requirements. (2) Upon submittal by the applicant, the county will accept the application and note the date of receipt. Receipt of an application does not constitute approval of the project proposal. 5 936 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (3) Within 14 calendar days' of receiving the application, the county shall provide to the applicant a written determination which states either that the application is complete or the application is incomplete. To the extent known by the county, other agencies of local, state, or federal government that may have jurisdiction shall be identified on the determination. (4) A project permit application is complete when it meets the submittal requirements of the department's administrative manual, includes items identified through the preapplication conference process and contains sufficient information to process the application even if additional information will be required. A determination of completeness shall not preclude the county from requiring additional information or studies at any time prior to permit approval. A project permit application shall be deemed complete under this section if the county does not issue a written determination to the applicant that the application is incomplete by the end of the 14t" calendar day from the date of receipt. (5) If the application is determined to be incomplete, the following shall take place: (a) The county will notify the applicant that the application is incomplete and indicate what is necessary to make the application complete. (b) The applicant shall have 90 calendar days from the date that the notification was issued to submit the necessary information to the county. If the applicant does not submit the necessary information to the county in writing within the 90-day period, the application shall be rejected. The director or designee may extend this period for an additional 90 calendar days upon written request by the applicant. (c) Upon receipt of the necessary information, the county shall have 14 calendar days to make a determination and notify the applicant whether the application is complete or what additional information is necessary.3 (6) A determination of an incomplete application is an appealable final administrative determination, subject to WCC 22.05.160(1). 22.05.060 Vesting. (The proposal would replace the County's vesting provisions of WCC 20.04.031 in this subsection so that they will clearly apply to all development permits (not just those listed in Title 20 Zoning) and to add clearer language that is more consistent with wording in state law and with recent court decisions. The current WCC 20.04.031(1)s definition of project permit is proposed to be deleted, with a new reference to the County Code's definition (consistent with state law) to be added to 22.05.010.] (1) Complete applications. For a project permit application the department has determined to be complete per WCC 22.05.050(4), the application shall be Z RCW 36.70B.070(1) allows 28 days; Title 21 currently has 28 days for subdivision plat applications, which would be changed to 14 days under this proposal. 3 RCW 36.70B.070(4)(b) 6 937 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft considered under the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date the application was submitted to the department. (2) Incomplete applications. For a project permit application the department has determined to be incomplete per WCC 22.05.050(5), the application shall be considered under the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date the department determines the application to be complete based on the necessary information required by the department. (3) Applications subject to preapplication conference. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section, for a project permit application that is (a) subject to a preapplication conference per WCC 22.05.020 and .040, (b) submitted no more than 28 calendar days from the date the department issued its notice of site -specific submittal requirements, and (c) determined complete by the department, the application shall be considered under the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date the preapplication conference request was submitted to the department. [Proposed subsection (3) would prevent the requirement of a preapplication meeting from delaying vesting, provided the preapplication materials are complete enough that a building permit can be issued within 30 days of the preapplication findings. (See West Main Assocs. vs. Bellevue decision)] (4) Continuation of vesting. Building or land disturbance permit applications that are required to complete a valid (i.e. not expired) project permit approval for project permits identified in the following list (a-m) shall vest to the zoning and land use control ordinances in effect at the time the project permit application identified below was determined complete. (a) Administrative Use; (b)Commercial Site Plan Review; (c) Conditional Use; (d)Critical Areas Variance; (e) Major Project Permit; (f) Natural Resource Review; (g) Planned Unit Development; (h) Reasonable Use (Type II and III); (i) Shoreline Conditional Use; (j) Shoreline Exemption; (k) Shoreline Substantial; (1) Shoreline Variance; (m) Zoning Variance. (5) Building permit applications within recorded long and short subdivisions and binding site plans. Building permit applications, including associated land disturbance permits, shall be governed by conditions of approval, statutes, and ordinances in effect at the time of final approval pursuant to RCW 58.17.170. 7 938 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft Vesting duration for those building permit applications shall be governed by the time limits established for long subdivisions in RCW 58.17.170, unless the county finds that a change in conditions creates a serious threat to the public health or safety. [Under this proposal, the 5- or 7-year vesting that applies specifically to long plats in RCW 58.17.170 is proposed to be extended to short plats and binding site plans. This is intended to provide greater clarity and predictability, and to be consistent with recent case law. Based on the County's current understanding of statute and case law, water rights are not currently considered "zoning or other land use controls."] (6) Building and fire code requirements. Building and fire code provisions adopted per WCC Title 15 vest at the time a building permit application is determined complete. [The proposed subsection clarifies that building and fire code vests at the time of complete bur_iding permit application, whereas land use controls (e.g. zoning and critical areas) vest with the original project permit, consistent with current 20.04.031(3)(d).] (7) Duration. Vesting status established through subsections (1) through (5) of this section runs with the application and expires upon denial of the application by the county, withdrawal of the application by the applicant, rejection of the application per WCC 22.05.050(5), expiration of the application per WCC 22.05.130(1)(a)(i), or expiration of the approved permit per WCC 22.05.140. [Current 20.04.031(1) through (5) on vesting to be deleted.] 22.05.070 Notice of application. (1) For Type II, III, and IV applications per WCC 22.05.020, the county shall issue a notice of application within 14 calendar days4 of a determination of completeness. The date of notice shall be the date of mailing. (2) If the county has made a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) threshold determination of significance concurrently with the notice of application, the county shall combine the determination of significance and scoping notice with the notice of application. (3) Notice shall include: (a) The date of application, the date of determination of completeness for the application, and the date of the notice of application; (b) A description of the proposed project action and a list of the project permits included in the application, and, if applicable, a list of any studies requested by the county; 4 RCW 36.70B.110(2) 8 939 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (c) The identification of other permits not included in the application to the extent known by the county; (d) The identification of environmental reviews conducted, including notice of existing environmental documents that evaluate the proposed project (including but not limited to reports, delineations, assessments and/or mitigation plans associated with critical area reviews) and, if not otherwise stated on the document providing notice of application, the location where the application and any studies can be reviewed; (e) Any other information determined appropriate by the county; (f) A statement indicating those development regulations that will be used for project mitigation or a determination of consistency if they have been identified at the time of notice; (g) A statement of the minimum public comment period which shall be 14 calendar days for all project permits except for shoreline substantial development, shoreline conditional use, shoreline variance and major project permits for mitigation banks which shall have a minimum comment period of no more than 30 calendar days. (h) A statement of the right of any person to comment on the application and receive notice of and participate in any hearings, request a copy of the decision once made and to appeal a decision when allowed by law. The department may accept public comments at any time prior to the close of the open record public hearing, or if there is no public hearing, prior to the decision on the project permit. In addition, the statement shall indicate that any person wishing to receive personal notice of any decisions or hearings must notify the department. (4) The department shall issue a notice of application in the following manner: (a) The notice shall be published once in the official county newspaper and on the Whatcom County website. The applicant shall bear the responsibility of paying for such notice. [As a courtesy the department also provides notice to other publications and individuals who have submitted a written request to receive such notice through the County's web site.] (b) Additional notice shall be given using the following method: (i) For sites within urban growth areas: Application notice shall be sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the external boundaries of the subject property as shown by the records of the county assessor; (ii) For sites outside urban growth areas: Application notice shall be sent to all property owners within 1,000 feet of the external boundaries of the subject property as shown by the records of the county assessor; (5) The county shall send notices of application to neighboring cities and other agencies or tribes that will potentially be affected, either directly or indirectly, by 9 940 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft the proposed development. Notice shall also be given to public utilities, if within 500 feet of the area submitted in the application. (6) All public comments received on the notice of application must be received by the department of planning and development services by 4:30 p.m. on or before the last day of the comment period. (7) Except for a determination of significance, the county shall not issue its SEPA threshold determination or issue a decision or recommendation on a permit application until the end of the public comment period on the notice of application. If an optional determination of nonsignificance (DNS) process is used, the notice of application and DNS comment period shall be combined. (8) Public notice given for project permit applications, SEPA documents, project hearings, and appeals hearings as required by this chapter and other provisions of the county code may be combined when practical, where such combined notice will expedite the permit review process, and where provisions applicable to each individual notice are met through the combined notice. 22.05.080 Posting of Application. [existing text from 20.84.235(2)] Where posting of public notice is required per WCC 22.05.020, the department shall post public notices of the proposal on all road frontages of the subject property and adjacent shorelines on or before the notice of application date and shall be visible to adjacent property owners and to passing motorists. Said notices shall remain in place until three days after the comment period closes. 22.05.090 Open record hearings. As shown in WCC 22.05.020, Type III and Type IV applications require an open record public hearing. These hearings are subject to the following: (1) Open record hearing notice. (a) The hearing examiner shall publish a notice of open record hearing once in the official county newspaper and on the Whatcom County website at least 14 calendar days prior to the hearing. The notice shall consist of the date, time, place, and type of the hearing. In addition, personal notice shall be provided to any person who has requested such notice in a timely manner, consistent with WCC 22.05.070(3)(h). (b) Within two days of the published notice the applicant shall be responsible for posting three copies of the notice in a conspicuous manner on the property upon which the use is proposed. Notices shall be provided by the hearing examiner. (c) An affidavit verifying distribution of the notice must be submitted to the hearing examiner two working days prior to the open record hearing. (d) The hearing examiner shall send notice of an open record hearing to neighboring cities and other agencies or tribes that will potentially be affected, either directly or indirectly by the proposed development. The hearing examiner shall be responsible for such notification. 10 941 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (e) The applicant shall pay all costs associated with providing notice. (2) One open record hearing. A project proposal subject to WCC 22.05 shall be provided with no more than one open record hearing and one closed record hearing pursuant to RCW 36.70B. This restriction does not apply to an appeal of a determination of significance as provided in RCW 43.21C.075. (3) Combined county and agency hearing. Unless otherwise requested by an applicant, the county shall allow an open record hearing to be combined with a hearing that may be necessary by another local, state, regional, federal or other agency for the same project if the joint hearing can be held within the time periods specified in WCC 22.05, or if the applicant agrees to waive such time periods in the event additional time is needed in order to combine the hearings. The combined hearing shall be conducted in Whatcom County pursuant to RCW 36.70B. (4) Quasi-judicial actions, including applications listed as Type III and IV applications in WCC 22.05.020, are subject to the appearance of fairness doctrine, RCW 42.36. The hearing examiner shall administer the open record hearing and issue decisions or recommendations in accordance with RCW 42.36. 22.05.100 Consistency review and recommendations. During project permit review, the review authority shall determine if the project proposal is consistent with the county's comprehensive plan, other adopted plans, existing regulations and development standards. (1) For Type I and II applications, the conclusions of a consistency determination made under this section shall be documented in the project permit decision. (2) For Type III and IV applications the department shall prepare a staff report on the proposed development or action. Staff shall file one consolidated report with the hearing examiner at least 10 calendar days prior to the scheduled open record hearing. The staff report shall: (a) Summarize the comments and recommendations of county departments, affected agencies, special districts and public comments received within the 14- day or 30-day comment period as established in WCC 22.05.070(6). (b) Provide an evaluation of the project proposal for consistency as indicated in this section. (c) Include recommended findings, conclusions, and actions regarding the proposal. [The proposal to change the staff report time frame to ten days is consistent with public notice publication requirements of 22.05.090(1)(a).] (3) For all project permit applications, if more information is required to determine consistency at any time in review of the application, the department may issue a notice of additional requirements. The notice of additional requirements shall allow 11 942 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft the applicant 180 calendar days from the date of issuance to submit all required information. The director or designee may extend this period for no more than cumulative 24 months upon written request by the applicant, provided the request is submitted before the end of the first 180-day period. A notice of additional requirements is not a final administrative determination. [Proposed subsection (3) codifies a I80-day response period for NOAR, consistent with current PDS practice.] 22.05.110 Final decisions. (1) The director or designee's final decision on all Type I or II applications shall be in the form of a written determination or permit. The determination or permit may be granted subject to conditions, modifications, or restrictions that are necessary to comply with all applicable codes. (2) The hearing examiner's final decision on all Type III applications per WCC 22.05.020 or appeals per 22.05.160(1) shall either grant or deny the application or appeal. (a) The hearing examiner may grant Type IIIapplications subject to conditions, modifications or restrictions that the hearing examiner finds are necessary to make the application compatible with its environment, carry out the objectives and goals of the Comprehensive Plan, statutes, ordinances and regulations as well as other official policies and objectives of Whatcom County. (b) Performance bonds or other security, acceptable to the prosecuting attorney, may be required to ensure compliance with the conditions, modifications and restrictions. (c) The hearing examiner shall render a final decision within 14 calendar days following the conclusion of all testimony and hearings. Each final decision of the hearing examiner shall be in writing and shall include findings and conclusions based on the record to support the decision. (d) No final decision of the hearing examiner shall be subject to administrative or quasi-judicial review, except as provided herein. (e) The applicant, any party of record or any county department may appeal any final decision of the hearing examiner to superior court, except as otherwise specified in WCC 22.05.020. [22.05.020 proposes changing the appeal body from County Council to Superior Court to separate legislative and quasi-judicial functions. Accordingly, the current 20.92.620 through .840, which describes the County Council appeal process, is proposed to be omitted. 22.05.120 Recommended decisions to county council. (1) For Type IV applications per WCC 22.05.020 the hearing examiner's recommendations to the county council may be to grant, grant with conditions or deny an application. The hearing examiner's recommendation may include conditions, modifications or restrictions as may be necessary to make the 12 943 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft application compatible with its environment, carry out the objectives and goals of the Comprehensive Plan, statutes, ordinances and regulations as well as other official policies and objectives of Whatcom County. (2) Each recommended decision of the hearing examiner for an application identified as a Type IV application per WCC 20.05.020 shall be in writing to the clerk of the county council and shall include findings and conclusions based upon the record to support the decision. Such findings and conclusions shall also set forth the manner in which the decision carries out and conforms to the county's Comprehensive Plan and complies with the applicable statutes, ordinances or regulations. (3) The deliberation of the county council on quasi-judicial actions shall be in accordance with WCC 22.05.090(4) and Chapter 42.36 RCW. (4) For planned unit developments and major project permits the following shall apply: (a) The recommendation of the hearing examiner regarding planned unit developments and major project permits shall be based upon the criteria set forth in WCC 20.85.335 and 20.88.130, respectively. (b) The hearing examiner shall file the recommendation with the clerk of the county council within 21 calendar days following the conclusion of the open record hearing. (c) Within 28 calendar days after the hearing examiner's recommendation has been filed, the county council shall hold a public meeting, not an open record public hearing, to deliberate on the project application and, within 21 calendar days of the meeting, issue a final written decision. The county council may exceed the time limits in this subsection if it makes written findings that a specified amount of additional time is needed to process a specific application or project type, per RCW 36.70B.080(1). [The optional review by Planning Commission is proposed for omission because that step makes it difficult to complete the project review within 120 days required in proposed 22.05.130(1)] (5) The county council's final written decision may include conditions when the project is approved and shall state the findings of fact upon which the decision is based. (6) Any deliberation or decision of the county council shall be based solely upon consideration of the record established by the hearing examiner, the recommendations of the hearing examiner and the criteria set forth in county code. 22.05.130 Permit review timeframes. (1) The county shall issue a notice of final decision for all permit types, including procedures for administrative appeal and notice that affected property owners may request a change in valuation for property tax purposes, to the applicant, the Whatcom County assessor, and any person who requested notice or submitted 13 944 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft substantive comments on the application within 120 calendar days of the date the department determined the application completes, except as provided below: (a) The following time periods shall be excluded from the calculation of the number of days elapsed: (i) Any period during which the applicant has been required by the county to correct plans, perform required studies, or provide additional, required information through a notice of additional requirements, per WCC 22.05.100(3). The period shall be calculated from the date the county issues a notice of additional requirements until the date the county receives all of the requested additional information. (ii) Any period during which an environmental impact statement is being prepared following a determination of significance pursuant to Chapter 43.21C RCW and WCC Title 16; (iii) The period specified for administrative appeals of project permits as provided in Chapter 2.11 WCC; (iv) The period specified for administrative appeals of development standards as provided in WCC 12.08.035(I); (v) Any period in which the applicant has not met public notification requirements; (vi) Any period of time mutually agreed upon in writing by the applicant and the county. (b) The time limits established by this section shall not apply to a project permit application that: (i) Requires an amendment to the Whatcom County comprehensive plan or a development regulation in order to obtain approval. (ii) Requires approval of a new fully contained community as provided in RCW 36.70A.350, a master planned resort as provided in RCW 36.70A.360, or the siting of an essential public facility as provided in RCW 36.70A.200. (iii) Is substantially revised by the applicant, including all redesigns of proposed land divisions, in which case a new time period shall start from the date at which the revised project application is determined to be complete. (c) The county may extend notice of final decision on the project if the county can document legitimate reasons for such a delay. In such a case the county shall provide written notice to the applicant at least 14 calendar days prior to the deadline for the original notice of final decision. The notice shall include a 5 RCW 36.70B.130 14 945 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft statement of reasons why the time limits have not been met and a date of issuance of a notice of final decision. (2) If an applicant believes a project permit application has not been acted upon by the county in a timely manner or otherwise consistent with this chapter, the applicant or authorized representative may request a meeting with the director to resolve the issue. Within 14 calendar days of the meeting, the director shall: (a) Approve the permit if it is within the director's authority to do so, provided the approval would not violate state or county regulations, or (b) Deny the permit if it is within the director's authority to do so, or (c) Respond in writing with the department's position, or a mutually acceptable resolution of the issue, which may include a partial refund of application fees at the director's discretion. [This proposed change is intended to maintain accountability on the part of the county and provide an avenue for resolving disputes, while removing a provision that could potentially approve an application that violates state or county regulations. (3) Any final order, permit decision or determination issued by Whatcom County shall include a notice to the applicant of his or her appeal rights per WCC 22.05.160. 22.05.140 Expiration of project permits. (1) Project permit approval status shall expire two years from the date of approval except where a different duration of approval is authorized by Whatcom County Code, or is established by a court decision or state law, or executed by a development agreement. The decision maker may extend this period up to one year from the date of original expiration upon written request by the applicant. (2) Any complete project permit application for which no information has been submitted in response to the department's notice of additional requirements per WCC 22.05.100(3) shall expire at the end of the time limit established in 22.05.100(3). [This provision for applications to expire after no response within the NOAR time frames allows for consistent predictable outcomes, and establishes clear expectations.] (3) For projects that have received a SEPA determination of significance per WCC 16.08, all underlying project permit applications shall expire when one of the following occurs: (a) The applicant has not in good faith maintained a contract with a person or firm to complete the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) as specified in the scoping document. The applicant is responsible for informing the county of the status of such contract. If there is no notice given to the County, all underlying project permit applications shall expire upon the end date of the contract; or 15 946 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (b) The mutually agreed timeframe to complete the Draft EIS or Final EIS has lapsed. (4) Project permits which received preliminary approval or a final decision prior to February 22, 2009 that did not include an expiration timeframe in the conditions of approval shall expire on [two years after the effective date of this ordinance]. [Proposed subsection (4) allows opportunity to obtain approval or implementation within two years for projects without an approval timeframe.] 22.05.150 Permit revocation procedure. (1) Upon notification by the director that a substantial violation of the terms and conditions of any previously granted zoning conditional use, shoreline substantial development or shoreline conditional use permit exists, the hearing examiner shall issue a summons as per WCC 2.11.220 to the permit holder requiring said permit holder to appear and show cause why revocation of the permit should not be ordered. Failure of the permit holder to respond may be deemed good cause for revocation. (2) Upon issuance of a summons as set forth in subsection (1) of this section, the hearing examiner shall schedule an open record hearing to review the alleged violations. The summons shall include notice of the hearing and shall be sent to the permit holder and the director of planning and development services no less than 12 calendar days prior to the date of the hearing. At the hearing the hearing examiner shall receive evidence of the alleged violations and the responses of the permit holder, as per the business rules of the hearing examiner's office. Testimony shall be limited to that of the division and the permit holder except where additional evidence would be of substantial value in determining if revocation should be ordered. The land use division's evidence may include the testimony of witnesses. (3) Upon a showing of violation by a preponderance of the evidence as alleged, the hearing examiner may revoke the permit or allow the permit holder a reasonable period of time to cure the violation. If the violation is not cured within the time set by the hearing examiner, the permit shall be revoked. Where a time to cure the violation has been set out, no further hearing shall be necessary prior to the revocation. The permit holder shall have the burden of proving that the violation has been cured within the time limit previously set. Such evidence as is necessary to demonstrate that the violation has been cured may be submitted to the hearing examiner by either the permit holder or the director of planning and development services. Any revocation shall be accompanied by written findings of fact and conclusions of law. The permit holder shall be notified of any revocation within 14 calendar days of the revocation. 22.05.160 Appeals. (1) Any party of record may appeal any order, final permit decision or final administrative determination made by the director or designee in the administration or enforcement of any chapter to the hearing examiner, who has the authority to hear and decide such appeals per WCC 2.11,210. 16 947 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (a)An appeal shall be filed with the department within 14 calendar days of the issuance of a final permit decision and shall be accompanied by a fee as specified in the Unified Fee Schedule. The written appeal shall include: (i) The action or decision being appealed and the date it was issued; (ii) Facts demonstrating that the person is adversely affected by the decision; (iii) A statement identifying each alleged error and the manner in which the decision fails to satisfy the applicable decision criteria; (iv) The specific relief requested; and (v) Any other information reasonably necessary to make a decision on the appeal. [Proposed items 1(a)(i)-(v) are copied from Bellingham Municipal Code 21.10.250] (b) The hearing examiner shall schedule a public hearing on the appeal to be held within 60 calendar days following the department's receipt of the application for appeal unless otherwise agreed upon by the county and the appellant. (2) The applicant, any party of record, or any county department may appeal any final decision of the hearing examiner to Superior Court or other body as specified by WCC 22.05.020. The appellant shall file a written notice of appeal within 14 calendar days of the final decision of the hearing examiner. 22.05.170 Annual report. Staff shall prepare an annual report on the implementation of this chapter and submit it to the council. 22.05.180 Interpretation, conflict and severability. (1) Interpret to Protect Public Welfare. In the event of any discrepancies between the requirements established herein and those contained in any other applicable regulation, code or program, the regulations which are more protective of the public health, safety, environment and welfare shall apply. (2) Severability. The provisions of this chapter are severable. If a section, sentence, clause, or phrase of this title is adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the decision shall not affect the remaining portions of this chapter. 17 948 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft Chapter 22.10 LEGISLATIVE ACTION PROCEDURES [This new chapter is adapted from the current Chapter 2.160 Comprehensive Plan Amendments, and Chapter 20.90 Amendments, along with new text that combines and streamlines existing process descriptions. Current text is shown in normal black font, with proposed changes shown in red. The current chapter/section numbers are shown as deleted with the proposed numbers replacing them.] Sections: 22.10.010 Purpose and applicability. 22.10.020 The docket. 22.10.030 Processing of docketed amendments. 22.10.040 Concurrent review of comprehensive plan amendments 22.10.050 Notice of public hearing. 22.10.060 Approval criteria. 22.10.010 Purpose and applicability. This chapter establishes the procedures for legislative actions amending the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and the development regulations that implement that plan. Amendments to the comprehensive plan includes changes to the plan's text and maps, and amendments to the development regulations include changes to the official zoning map and the text in WCC Titles 16, 20, 21, and 23. For purposes of this chapter, comprehensive plan amendments include amendments to subarea plans. 22.10.020 The docket. (1) The department of planning and development services ("department") shall maintain a proposed docket of comprehensive plan and development regulation amendment applications and shall present it to the county council for review once a year on or about March 1. The county council may, by resolution, approve a docket listing all applications that may be processed per the provisions of this chapter. (2)The department, the executive, the planning commission, or the county council by majority vote, may place a proposed amendment on the docket at any time. (3)A party other than the county council, executive, the planning commission or the department may suggest an amendment to the comprehensive plan or development regulations by making application on forms provided by the department and submitting any required docketing fee. (a)Applications for suggested amendments must be submitted by December 31 in order to be included on the proposed docket presented to the county council at its next annual docket review. The department shall review the application for completeness and may request additional information to ensure the application is complete before scheduling it for the annual docket review. 18 949 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft (b) If the county council dockets a suggested amendment, all required amendment application fees are due within 30 calendar days after it is docketed. If all fees are not paid within 30 calendar days after being docketed, the department shall close the application and remove it from the docket. When docketing an application, the county council may waive the application fees if it finds the proposed amendment would clearly benefit the community as a whole. [The intent of proposed section 22.10.020(1)-(3) is to clearly differentiate between the proposed docket presented by the department, and the final docket approved by resolution of the County Council. RCW 36.70.470's allowance for suggested amendments is accommodated, with the requirement that the suggestion be accompanied by a completed application and a docketing fee (not the full application fee, which is charged if it is docketed, unless waived by the County Council; the "clearly benefit the community" finding is currently required in WCC 2.160.110.)] (4) The county council, by majority vote, may remove a proposed amendment from the approved docket by motion, unless: (a) the amendment was proposed by a party other than the county council or the department per WCC 22.10.020(3), and (b) the applicant has provided all information required by the planning and development services department. The department shall notify the applicant not less than 30 calendar days prior to consideration of removal from the docket.

(1) The department shall review docketed comprehensive plan and development regulation amendment applications as provided below: (a) For suggested amendment applications filed per WCC 22.10.020(3), the department shall evaluate the applications for completeness and may request additional information of the applicant prior to requesting the appropriate hearing body to schedule a public hearing. Where a development regulation amendment requires a comprehensive plan amendment, the two amendments shall be processed at the same time. (b) The department shall conduct environmental review under SEPA and prepare a staff report including recommendations and/or options for each docketed amendment. Both the report and the result of the environmental review shall be forwarded to the planning commission, and to the applicable city staff if the proposed amendment applies to land within a city's urban growth area. (c) The staff report shall evaluate the proposed amendment(s) in relationship to the approval criteria of WCC 22.10.060, and consider any environmental impacts or mitigation measures identified by the Whatcom County SEPA official.If the proposed amendment includes land within a city's urban growth area, the staff report shall also address any comments from the city regarding consistency with 19 950 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft the applicable city comprehensive plan and the ability of the city to provide needed utility services. (2) Docketed comprehensive plan and development regulation amendment applications shall receive a public hearing by the planning commission subject to the notice requirements of 22.10.050. Following the public hearing, the planning commission shall vote to adopt findings of fact and recommended actions, which the department shall transmit to the county council. In addition to the public hearing, the planning commission may hold public work sessions to discuss a proposed amendment. (3) The county council may hold a public hearing on the docketed amendment in addition to the planning commission's public hearing. If the county council decides the public interest is better served by considering a final action that differs from the planning commission recommendation, the county council shall hold a public hearing. The county council, by majority vote, may adopt the amendment by ordinance, reject the amendment, or remand the proposed amendment to the planning commission for further review. (4) Actions that are quasi-judicial as defined in 42.36.010 RCW (including but not limited to a zoning map amendment for a single lot) are subject to the appearance of fairness doctrine, Chapter 42.36 RCW. For a proposed amendment that is a quasi-judicial action, the planning commission and county council shall process the application in accordance with Chapter 42.36 RCW in addition to the requirements of this section. 22.10.040 Concurrent review of comprehensive plan amendments (1)While public hearings and other public discussion of proposed comprehensive plan amendments may take place at any time of the year, the county council's final review and adoption of those amendments shall take place concurrently, no more frequently than once per calendar year, in accordance with RCW 36.70A.130(2)(a). Final adoption should occur on or about February 1. (2)The following comprehensive plan amendments are excluded from the requirement of annual concurrent review and may be adopted at any time: (a)The initial adoption of a subarea plan, (b)Adoption or amendment of the shoreline master program under procedures set forth in Chapter 90.58 RCW, (c) The amendment of the capital facilities element concurrent with adoption or amendment of the county budget, (d)Amendments needed to resolve an appeal of the comprehensive plan filed with the growth management hearings board or the court, or (e)Amendments necessary in cases where the county council finds an emergency exists. 20 951 Title 22 Amendments January 16, 2018 Draft 22.10.050 Notice of public hearing.

This chapter establishes the procedures for legislative actions_ amending the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan and the development regulations that implement that plan. Amendments to the comprehensive plan includes changes to theplan's text and maps, and amendments to the development regulations include_ changes to the official zoning map and the text in WCC Titles 16, 20, 21, and 23. For purposes of this chapter, comprehensive plan amendments include amendments to subarea plans. 22.10.020 The docket. (1) The department of planning and development_ services ("department") shall maintain a proposed docket of comprehensive plan and development regulation amendment applications and shall present it to the county council for review once a year on or about March 1. The county council may, by resolution, approve a docket listing all applications that may be processed per the provisions of this chapter. (2)The-department, the executive thelannin commission or the county council by majority vote, may place a proposed amendment on the docket at any time. (3)A party other than the county council, executive, the planning commission or the department may suggest an amendment to the comprehensive plan or development regulations by makinc j application on forms provided by the department and submit-tina any required docketing fee. (a)Applications for suggested amendments must be submitted by December 31 in order to be included on the proposed docket presented to the county council at its next annual docket review.

When docketing an application, the county council may waive the application fees if it finds the _pro used_amendment would clearly benefit the community as a whole. [The intent of proposed section 22,10.020(1)-(3) is to clearly differentiate between the ro osed docket presented by the department, and the final docket approved by resolution of the County Council. RCW 36.70.470's allowance for suggested amendments is accommodated, with the requirement that the suggestion be accompanied by a completed application and a docketing fee (not the full application fee, which is charged if it is docketed, unless waived by the County Council; the "clearly benefit the community" finding is currently required in WCC 2.160.110.)] The county council, by majority vote may remove a proposed amendment from the approved docket by motion, unless: Ca) -the pr$pesed-amendment was —(a-) iait-iated-proposed by a r party other than the county council or the department per WCC 22.10.020(31 1izLthe a....,.,a.,..,1t Is•Cf}fi5i5t1 Fail-5tate351-EClgra1 and fekbb1the applicant has provided all information required by the planning and development services department.

A description of the existing site conditions and expected changes in site conditions as a result of the banking activity, including changes on neighboring lands; e. A conceptual site design; f. A description of the proposed protective mechanism such as a conservation easement; and g. Demonstration of adequate financial resources to plan, implement, maintain, and administer the project. 11 1030 Titles 9, 15, 16, 23 and 24 January 16 2018.Draft The technical administrator shall review the bank prospectus either by participating in the state's Mitigation Bank Review Team (MBRT) process and/or by hiring independent, third -party expertise to assist in the review. 3. If the technical administrator determines that the bank prospectus is complete, technically accurate, and consistent with the purpose and intent of this chapter, s/he shall forward the prospectus to the County Council for initial review. If the proposed bank involves conversion of agricultural land to nonagricultural uses, the County Council shall seek a recommendation from the Agricultural Advisory Committee as to whether the conversion should be allowed. The Committee's recommendation shall be nonbinding. The County Council may require mitigation for the loss of agricultural lands. 4. If the County Council determines, based on the initial review, that the prospectus is valid, it shall issue a notice to proceed to the bank sponsor. Following receipt of the notice to proceed, the bank sponsor may submit application for a major project permit in accordance with Chapter 20.88 WCC. The notice to proceed shall not be construed as final approval of the bank proposal, but shall indicate approval to proceed with the development of the mitigation bank instrument, which details all of the legal requirements for the bank. Upon receipt of a draft mitigation banking instrument from the bank sponsor and major project permit application, the technical administrator shall review the banking instrument and major project permit in consultation with the MBRT and/or other third -party expert. Following review of the mitigation banking instrument and major project permit, the technical administrator shall make a recommendation to certify and approve, conditionally certify and approve, or deny the bank proposal and major project permit in accordance with the provisions of Chapters 20.88 and 22.05 WCC. 6. Following receipt of the recommendation, the County Council shall proceed with review in accordance with the preced-uw-e-�provisions outlined in Chapters 20.88 end?.05 WCC. 7. The bank sponsor shall be responsible for the cost of any third -party review. 16.16.270 Reasonable Use Exceptions. A. Permit applicants for a property so encumbered by critical areas and/or buffers that application of this chapter —including buffer averaging, buffer reduction, or other mechanism —would deny all reasonable use may seek approval pursuant to the reasonable use standards and procedures provided in this section. B. Reasonable Use Standards. 12 1031 Titles 9, 15, 16, 23 and 24 January 16, 2O18 Draft 1. Nothing in this chapter is intended to preclude all reasonable economic use of property. If the application of this chapter would deny all reasonable economic use of the subject property, including agricultural use, use or development shall be allowed if it is consistent with the zoning code and the purposes of this chapter. 2. To qualify as a reasonable use, the technical administrator or hearing examiner, as appropriate, must find that the proposal is consistent with all of the following criteria: a. There is no portion of the site where the provisions of this chapter allow reasonable economic use, including agricultural use or continuation of legal nonconforming uses; b. There is no feasible alternative to the proposed activities that will provide reasonable economic use with less adverse impact on critical areas and/or buffers. Feasible alternatives may include, but are not limited to, locating the activity on a contiguous parcel that has been under the ownership or control of the applicant since September 30, 2005, change in use, reduction in size , change in timing of activity, and/or revision of project design; c. Activities will be located as far as possible from critical areas and the project employs all reasonable methods to avoid adverse effects on critical area functions and values, including maintaining existing vegetation, topography, and hydrology. Where both critical areas and buffer areas are located on a parcel, buffer areas shall be disturbed in preference to the critical area; d. The proposed activities will not result in adverse effects on endangered or threatened species as listed by the federal government or the state of Washington, or be inconsistent with an adopted recovery plan; e. Measures shall be taken to ensure the proposed activities will not cause degradation of groundwater or surface water quality, or adversely affect drinking water supply; f. The proposed activities comply with all state, local and federal laws, including those related to erosion and sediment control, pollution control, floodplain restrictions, and on -site wastewater disposal; g. The proposed activities will not cause damage to other properties; h. The proposed activities will not increase risk to the health or safety of people on or off the site; i. The inability to derive reasonable economic use of the property is not the result of segregating or dividing the property and/or creating the condition of lack of use after September 30, 2005; 13 1032 Titles 9, 15, 16, 23 and 24 JanuarV 16 2018 Draft j. The project includes mitigation for unavoidable critical area and buffer impacts in accordance with the mitigation requirements of this chapter; k. For single-family residences, the maximum impact area may be no larger than 4,000 square feet. This impact area shall include the residential structure as well as appurtenant development that are necessarily connected to the use and enjoyment of a single-family residence. These appurtenant developments include garages, decks, driveways, parking, on -site septic systems, and all lawn and non-native landscaping, with the following exceptions: On lots outside of the shoreline jurisdiction, when an extended driveway is necessary to access a portion of a development site with the least impact on critical area and/or buffers, those portions of the driveway shall be excluded from the 4,000 square foot maximum impact area provided that the access road meets the standards of WCC 16.16.620(E) or 16.16.720(C), as applicable. On lots within the shoreline jurisdiction, when an extended driveway is necessary to access a portion of a development site with the least impact on critical area and/or buffers, approval of those driveway portions shall be sought through a Shoreline Variance (WCC 23.60.030) and demonstrate that the size and location of the driveway is the minimum relief necessary to access the development site. C. Reasonable Use Procedures. 1. Procedural requirements for reasonable use exception applications shall be as follows: a. Reasonable use exception applications shall be subject to an open record public hearing; except, that reasonable use exception applications for single-family residential building permits, or for other development proposals that would affect critical area buffers, but not the critical areas themselves, shall be processed administratively by the technical administrator. b. Reasonable use exception applications that require an open record hearing shall be processed in accordance with Chapter -2.33WGG af�d WCC20.84-23922.05. c. Reasonable use exception applications that are subject to administrative approval by the technical administrator shall be processed in accordance with WCC '^.�'22.05. d.

The development proposal must be completed before the approval expires. 14 1033 Titles 9, 15, 16, 23 and 24 January 16, 2018 Draft e. Any person aggrieved by the granting, denying, or rescinding of a reasonable use exception by the technical administrator or any party of record may appeal the Technical Administrator's decision pursuant to WCC 16.16.280 or the hearing examiner decision pursuant to Chapter -20-9-222.05 WCC. f. Any application for a reasonable use exception or approval which remains inactive for a period of 180 days shall expire and a new application and repayment of fees shall be required to reactivate the proposal; provided, that the technical administrator may grant a single 90-day extension for good cause. Delays such as those caused by public notice requirements, environmental (SEPA) review, litigation directly related to the proposal, or changes in government regulations shall not be considered as part of the inactive period. 2. All reasonable use exception applications or other approvals shall be subject to the provisions of this chapter, which are in effect at the time of application. 3. Each application for a reasonable use exception shall be accompanied by a fee as stated in the unified fee schedule. 4.

Additional or revised landscaping is consistent with any conditions attached to the original approval and with this program; 4. The use authorized pursuant to the original approval is not changed; and 5. The revision will not cause adverse environmental impacts beyond those originally authorized in the approval. D.

Revisions made after the expiration of the original approval shall be limited to changes that are consistent with this program and that would not require a permit under this program. If the proposed change is a substantial development as defined by this program, then a new permit is required. The provisions of this subsection shall not be used to extend the time requirements or to authorize substantial development beyond the time limits or scope of the original approval. E. A new permit shall be required if the proposed revision and any previously approved revisions in combination would constitute development beyond the scope and intent of the original approval as set forth in subsection C of this section. F. Upon approval of a revision, the decision maker shall file a copy of the revised site plan and a detailed description of the authorized changes to the original permit with the Department of Ecology together with a final ruling and findings supporting 29 MR, Titles 9, 15, 16, 23 and 24 January 16,2018 Draft the decision based on the requirements of this section.

Any shoreline permit granted pursuant to this program may be rescinded or modified upon a finding by the hearing examiner that the permittee or his/her successors in interest have not complied with conditions attached thereto. If the results of a monitoring plan show a development to be out of compliance with specific performance standards, such results may be the basis for findings of noncompliance. B. The administrator shall initiate rescission or modification proceedings by issuing written notice of noncompliance to the permittee or his/her successors and notifying parties of record at the original address provided in application review files. C.

In such cases, a variance may be granted which is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of this title so that the intent of this title shall be observed, and public health, safety and welfare secured. Title 21 January 16 2018 Draft A variance may be granted only when all of the following circumstances listed in either subsection (1) or (2) of this section are found to apply. Applicants shall specify which criteria set they are proposing to qualify for a variance under and shall provide information to the county demonstrating compliance with that criteria set before a variance may be granted. (1) Variance to Alleviate Unnecessary Hardship. (a) Any variance granted shall not constitute a grant of special privilege, be based upon reasons of hardship caused by previous actions of the property owner, nor be granted for financial reasons alone. (b) The strict application of these regulations would cause a hardship because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape, topography, environmental constraints or location. Aesthetic considerations or design preferences without reference to restrictions based upon the physical characteristics of the property do not constitute sufficient hardship under this section. (c) The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or injurious to other property. (2) Variance to Achieve Better Design. (a) Any variance granted shall not constitute a grant of special privilege or be based upon reasons of hardship caused by previous actions of the property owner, nor be granted for financial reasons alone. (b) The granting of the variance results in better lot design than would be permitted under the standard regulations. "Better lot design" is defined as meaning such items as more practical site design because of topography, wetland or other environmental constraints, or the lot design will result in lots nearer to conformance to required development standards or applicable Comprehensive Plan goals and policies, including those relating to urban growth areas. (c) The granting of any variance will not be unduly detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and subarea in which the subject property is located. (d) In granting variances and modifications, the hearing examiner or technical review committee, as appropriate, may require such conditions as will in its judgement secure substantially the objectives of the requirements so varied. (3) A decision on a variance application by the technical review committee or by the hearing examiner shall be accompanied by specific written findings addressing each of the applicable criteria. 21.02.020 Notification of cities.

The provisions of WCC 20.40.253 and 20.40.254 provide for the segregation of a farmstead parcel with an existing residence(s) from a remainder parcel used for farming in the Agriculture Zone. The remainder parcel is restricted to agricultural use only. Because no further residential development can occur on the remainder parcel and an existing residential structure is already on the farmstead parcel, many of the standard short plat requirements are unnecessary. Therefore, a shortened review process has been established. Agricultural short plats that qualify under WCC 20.40.253 and 20.40.254 shall be subject to the following: (1) Agricultural short plats that recognize an existing farmstead home site shall be processed pursuant to all the requirements of this chapter except that the short plat will not be reviewed for compliance with: (a) WCC 21.04.060 (Roads); (b) WCC 21.04.090 (Water supply), when the remainder parcel will not require potable water; (c) WCC 21.04.100 (Sewage disposal); (d) WCC 21.04.130 (Land survey); (e) Chapter 16.16 WCC (Critical Areas); and (f) Shoreline master program. (2) Any subsequent development must comply with all applicable codes. 28 1132 Title 21 January j6, 2018 Draft (3) Survey Requirements - Partial. A survey, prepared by a professional land surveyor in accordance with WCC-2-1,09:010 and 2 02Gthe department's administrative manual, which provides the location of at least two corners of the farmstead parcel shall be submitted. A survey is not required for the remainder parcel that cannot have further residential development.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION File # PLN2016-00008 File Name: Land Use and Development Procedures Applicants: Whatcom County Planning and Development Services (PDS) Summary of Request: Amend Whatcom County Code to add a new Title 22 Land Use and Development Procedures, and amend Titles 2, 9, 15, 16, 20, 21, 23, and 24 to move procedural content to the new Title 22. Location: County -wide. Staff Recommendation: Approval. The proposal adds clarity to the County's project permit procedures and is intended to make processing of various applications more efficient. Background In 1995 the state adopted legislation regarding procedures for county land use and development applications (ESHB 1724; 36.70B RCW). The intent of the legislation was to ensure that applications were processed in a timely, predictable manner, and that different applications involving the same project could be consolidated. Whatcom County Code adopted a new Chapter 2.33 in 1996 in response to the 1995 state legislation. This new chapter contained many of the project permit review procedures, but many procedural sections remained in various sections of the County code, including Title 15 Building and Codes, Title 16 Environment, Title 20 Zoning, Title 21 Land Division Regulations, Title 23 Shoreline Management and Title 24 Health. These procedural sections typically involve requirements for application materials, review timelines, legal notifications, public hearings, and appeals. With these requirements scattered throughout the code, there are some overlaps and inconsistencies. Staff now proposes consolidating all land use and development procedures in a new Title 22. (The County Council rescinded the Page 1 of 10 1168 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report previous Title 22, the Guide Meridian Improvement Plan, as part of a series of code amendments made in conjunction with the 2016 Comprehensive Plan update process, Ord. 2016-035). H. ZONING CODE AMENDMENT Overview by Chapter Staff proposes a new Title 22 Land Use and Development Procedures to contain administrative procedures that are now located throughout different titles and chapters in Whatcom County Code, eliminating redundancy and, in some cases, inconsistency between code chapters. In addition, staff proposes amendments to the code chapters showing the removal of procedural sections and revising references to code sections being changed. The overall purpose of the proposed amendments is to make the code clearer and easier for the public to use, and to improve efficiency and clarity in processing applications for project permits and legislative actions. The new Title 22 would be made up of five chapters. The first chapter, 22.05 Project Permit Procedures, would consolidate procedures for project permits in one place. Project permits are defined in RCW 36.70B.020(4) as: "...Any land use or environmental permit or license required from a local government for a project action, including but not limited to building permits, subdivisions, binding site plans, planned unit developments, conditional uses, shoreline substantial development permits, site plan review, permits or approvals required by critical area ordinances, site -specific rezones authorized by a comprehensive plan or subarea plan, but excluding the adoption or amendment of a comprehensive plan, subarea plan, or development regulations..." This chapter would generally follow the project permit process in chronological order and provide a new table listing the steps required for each type of project permit application. Some highly detailed requirements currently found in the code (for example, a list of items that need to be shown on a site plan and how many copies of the plan to submit) are proposed to be removed from code and consolidated into an Administrative Manual that can be updated without requiring a code amendment. The second chapter, 22.10 Legislative Procedures, combines procedures for comprehensive plan amendments and zoning amendments (including both zoning map changes and code text amendments), from current Chapters 2.160 and 20.90, respectively. The goal is to make the process easier to understand, especially when a zoning amendment requires a comprehensive plan amendment and both are processed at the same time. The third chapter would be 22.15 Code Compliance Procedures, consolidating Page 2of10 1169 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report code enforcement procedures from Chapter 20.94 with other enforcement procedures scattered throughout the code. For this process, this chapter title will be reserved as a placeholder for when the separate process of consolidating those procedures is completed at a later date. The fourth chapter, 22.20 Land Use and Development Code Interpretation Procedures, would add procedures for citizens to request PDS interpretations of the County's land use and development codes to clarify conflicting or ambiguous wording. Interpretation procedures commonly appear in other jurisdictions' codes, but Whatcom County Code has no such provision. The proposed language for this relatively short chapter borrows wording from the City of Bellingham's code. The fifth chapter, 22.25 Land Use and Development Fees, would place the fee provisions, now located in the general provisions of Title 20 Zoning, in Title 22, where it would apply to all development related titles of the County Code. These fee provisions include references to the Unified Fee Schedule, and procedures for refunds. Substantive Changes For the most part, these amendments move procedural provisions from one part of the County Code to another (often making grammatical improvements) but does not alter the substance of the procedures. However, in some instances, staff proposes substantive changes in the procedures to improve clarity and predictability in the permitting process or to remove inconsistencies with state law. These proposed substantive changes are detailed below. WCC Chapter 22.05 Project Permit Procedures WCC 22.05.060 and 20.05.140 - The proposed changes to vesting and expiration regulations are among the most significant changes in the draft amendments. Under state law, vesting refers to the "zoning or other land use control ordinances" a particular project permit must adhere to. In order to ensure fairness and predictability, those rules are established (vest) for a project as of the time a complete application, even if changes are made to those rules later. The County's vesting rules are currently located in WCC 20.04.31. Because vesting principles apply to applications beyond those described in Title 20 Zoning, and are in many places unclear in meaning, PDS proposes moving the vesting provisions to the new Title 22, which would apply to all land use and development projects, and making the wording clearer. The revised wording in the proposed 22.05.060 uses the state law's phrase, "zoning or other land use control ordinances" so that County regulations will be consistent with state statute and case law. Several recent court decisions have interpreted what types of regulations are Page 3of10 1170 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report included within that phrase (See the Municipal Research and Services Center's "Vested Rights Overview" at mrsc.ora) and interpreted when vesting applies. Proposed WCC 22.05.060 also clearly designates the date on which vesting occurs in various circumstances throughout the land use process. Proposed WCC 22.05.060(7) clarifies that vesting is in effect until withdrawal or expiration of the application. Proposed subsection (3) would prevent the requirement of a preapplication meeting from delaying vesting, provided the preapplication materials are complete enough that a project permit can be applied for within 30 days of the preapplication notice of site -specific requirements. This is consistent with the West Main Assocs. vs. Bellevue decision. Subsection (4) would extend vesting from an approved land use permit to a complete building permit application. Current code does not contain clear vesting procedures after approval of a land use permit. The proposed language is drafted from similar language found in Snohomish County and the City of Bellingham. Under subsection (5), the 5- or 7-year vesting that applies specifically to long plats in RCW 58.17.170 is proposed to be extended to short plats and binding site plans in Whatcom County. State law does not appear to extend building permit vesting to short subdivisions or binding site plans (see the Alliance vs. Ellensburg decision). Staff is proposing to match short subdivision timeframes to the state allowance for long subdivisions which is consistent with approvals related to critical areas reports and other development standards. Subsection (6) clarifies that building and fire code vest at the time of complete building permit application, whereas land use controls (e.g. zoning and critical areas) vest with the original project permit (e.g. subdivision or conditional use permit), which is consistent with the current 20.04.031(3)(d). Subsection (7) clarifies that, except for applications described in subsections (5) and (6), vesting runs with the application until the application is denied, expires or is withdrawn. Expiration of applications is covered in proposed 22.05.140. It provides time frames for applications to move to the next step of approval or implementation, or expire. This is intended to provide for consistent, predictable outcomes and establish clear expectations between the applicant and the County. This section would allow two years from date of approval to take action on the application before it expires with a possible one year extension. A project permit application can also be expired if there is no response to the notice of additional requirements. Page 4 of 10 1171 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report • WCC 22.05.020(1)/22.05.110(5) - Appeals of hearing examiner decisions would go directly to Superior Court rather than County Council on most project permits. This is more consistent with the quasi- judicial role of the hearing examiner and legislative role of the council. WCC 22.05.020(1)/22.05.040(6) - This would require preapplication meetings for more types of projects (specifically administrative use permits and conditional use permits) and allow the meetings to be scheduled within 30 (currently 20) days of applicant's request. The 30- day time frame is consistent with the current Shoreline Master Program and will allow additional time for staff site visits and review. In addition, the amendment would give the director or designee the option to waive the preapplication meeting, which is not in the current code other than in Title 15. • WCC 22.05.040(8) - This amendment would allow staff 14 calendar days (currently 10 days) to issue comments and site -specific submittal requirements to the applicant following pre -application meeting. This change will result in the comment response date to be within the work week rather than falling on a weekend. WCC 22.05.070(4)(b) Would remove language that requires the notice of application to be sent to neighbors at least 15 days prior to the public hearing. Current code (2.33.030) and RCW 36.70B.110 requires the notice of application within 14 days of the determination of completeness and solicits for comments early in the review process. The hearing date is generally unknown at the time the notice of application is issued. WCC 22.05.090(4) and 22.05.120(4) - Staff proposes adding these sections to clarify that applications meeting the definition of quasi- judicial actions in RCW 42.36 must be processed in accordance with the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine described in that chapter of state law. WCC 22.05.100(3) Staff report to the Hearing Examiner due 10 (currently 17) calendar days before the public hearing. This is consistent with the notice of hearing requirements. WCC 22.05.120(4)(b) and (c) For Major Project Permits and Planned Unit developments, time limits for the Hearing Examiner to file a recommendation with the County Council and for the County Council to hold a public meeting are both currently 45 calendar days. These limits make it highly unlikely the permit would be processed within the required 120 days, as required by state law (RCW 36.70B.080) and the new WCC 22.05.130(1). This section changes the limits to 21 and 28 calendar days, respectively, with the possibility for the County Council to Page 5of10 1172 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report increase the time limit for holding the public meeting if it makes findings that a specified amount of additional time is needed to process a specific application or project type, as authorized by RCW 36.70B.080(1). This would allow more time for the few large, complex projects while requiring a shorter time for the majority of applications. WCC 22.05.120(5)(c) - An optional additional review by the Planning Commission is proposed for omission because that review would make it highly unlikely the permit would be processed within the 120 days. State law and this section of WCC require that there can be only one public record hearing. That hearing is done by the Hearing Examiner and any subsequent meeting by the County Council (or currently the Planning Commission) is only for discussion and must be based entirely on the record established by the Hearing Examiner. WCC 22.05.130 - The proposal would revise the current 2.33.090(G), which is not clearly worded but apparently states an application is automatically approved if not processed within the prescribed timelines. This provision is not supported by state law, and could place an application in unclear legal status if it gains approval without meeting State or County regulations. Staff instead proposes a process which holds the County accountable for following permit review procedures by allowing for a meeting with the director for dispute resolution, potentially including refund of applications fees. WCC 22.05.160 - This section would add specific requirements for a written appeal, copied from the City of Bellingham's code. WCC Cha ter 22.10 Legislative Action Procedures WCC 22.10.020 - Docketing methods would include a majority vote by County Council, addition by Planning and Development Services (PDS), a suggestion by a citizen to PDS, which PDS could place on the docket if it is not quasi-judicial, and an application by a citizen. This is similar to the current list of docketing options, except the suggested amendment is proposed to be distinguished from a citizen application, and the Planning Commission would not be able to directly docket an application (though nothing would prevent individual members from submitting suggestions or applications as citizens). • WCC 22.10.030(4) - Similar to the proposed 22.05.090(4), staff proposes this section to clarify that the actions that meet the state law's definition of quasi-judicial actions in RCW 42.36.010 are subject to the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine. An example would be an application for a zoning map amendment that would affect a single lot. Page 6of10 1173 File # PLN 2016-00008 October 18, 2017 Development Procedures Amendment Staff Report • WCC 22.10.050 - Staff proposes removing the requirement that the applicant provide stamped envelopes because PDS now prepares the mailed notices. • WCC 22.10.060(1) - Staff proposes deleting from the list of Comprehensive Plan consistency review criteria the current requirement that UGA expansions require acquisition of development rights. Staff believes this criterion may be inconsistent with RCW 82.02. • WCC 22.10.060(2) - Staff proposes adding a requirement that the Planning Commission and County Council make a finding that a proposed amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in order to approve the application. WCC Chapter 22.20 Land Use and Development Code Interpretation Procedures Current Whatcom County Code does not prescribe a procedure for requesting or appealing an interpretation of the code. The proposed wording is largely borrowed from the Bellingham Municipal Code (BMC 21.10.270) with the addition of a provision to publish interpretations on the County's web site. WCC Chapter 22.25 Land Use and Development Fees • This chapter would contain the fee provisions now contained in WCC 20.04.090 - .092 so that it would apply to other development -related titles of the Whatcom County Code. Aside from clarifying that these fee provisions apply to the other development -related titles of the code, no changes to these fee provisions are proposed. III. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan supports streamlined regulations in Chapter 2: Regulations It is very important to Whatcom County citizens to maintain local control over land use decisions. Regulations should be clear, concise, and predictable with enough flexibility to allow for reasonable and efficient decision making. Regulations should be enforced. Promote and maintain incentive programs to encourage land to be used in ways that meet community goals. Goal 2113: Refine the regulatory system to ensure accomplishment of desired land use goals in a fair and equitable manner. Page 7of10 1174 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report Policy 2D-1: Eliminate unnecessary regulations. Policy 2D-2: Eliminate regulations that could be more effectively achieved through incentive or education programs. Policy 2D-3: Streamline development regulations to eliminate unnecessary time delays. Policy 21D-4: Coordinate permitting requirements among jurisdictions to minimize duplication and delays. IV. PROPOSED FINDINGS OF FACT AND REASONS FOR ACTION Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the following findings of fact and reasons for action: Whatcom County Planning and Development Services has submitted an application for amendments to add a new Title 22 Land Use and Development Procedures, and amend Titles 2, 9, 15, 16, 20, 21, 23 and 24 to move procedural content to the new Title 22. 2. A determination of non -significance (DNS) was issued under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) on October 16, 2017. 3. Notice of the subject amendment was submitted to the Washington State Department of Commerce on September 20, 2017. 4. Notice of the Planning Commission public hearing for the amendments was published in the Bellingham Herald on October 13, 2017. 5, The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed amendments on October 26, 2017. 6. In 1995 the State Legislature adopted legislation regarding procedures for county land use and development applications (ESHB 1724; 36.70E RCW). The intent of the legislation was to ensure that applications were processed in a timely, predictable manner, and that different applications involving the same project could be consolidated. 7. Whatcom County Code adopted a new Chapter 2.33 in 1996 in response to the 1995 state legislation. This new chapter contained many of the project permit review procedures, but many procedural sections remained in various sections of the County code, including Title 16 Environment, Title 20, Zoning, Title 21 Land Division Regulations, and Title 23 Shoreline Management. 8. The proposed Title 22 Land Use and Development Procedures would contain administrative procedures that are now located throughout Page 8 of 10 1175 File # PLN 2016-00008 October 18, 2017 Development Procedures Amendment Staff Report different titles and chapters in Whatcom County Code, eliminating redundancy and, in some cases, inconsistency between code chapters. 9. The proposed Chapter 22.05 Project Permit Procedures would consolidate procedures for project permits in one place. 10. RCW 36.70B.020(4) defines project permits as "...any land use or environmental permit or license required from a local government for a project action, including but not limited to building permits, subdivisions, binding site plans, planned unit developments, conditional uses, shoreline substantial development permits, site plan review, permits or approvals required by critical area ordinances, site -specific rezones authorized by a comprehensive plan or subarea plan, but excluding the adoption or amendment of a comprehensive plan, subarea plan, or development regulations..." 11. Because vesting principles apply to applications beyond those described in Title 20 Zoning, the vesting provisions are proposed to be moved from Title 20 to the new Title 22, which applies to all land use and development projects. The revised wording in the proposed 22.05.060 uses state law's phrase, "zoning or other land use control ordinances" so that County regulations will be consistent with state statute and case law. 12. RCW 19.27.095(1) states, "A valid and fully complete building permit application for a structure, that is permitted under the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date of the application shall be considered under the building permit ordinance in effect at the time of application, and the zoning or other land use control ordinances in effect on the date of application." 13. RCW 58.17.033(1) states, "A proposed division of land, as defined in RCW 58.17.020, shall be considered under the subdivision or short subdivision ordinance, and zoning or other land use control ordinances, in effect on the land at the time a fully completed application for preliminary plat approval of the subdivision, or short plat approval of the short subdivision, has been submitted to the appropriate county, city, or town official." 14. The proposed Chapter 22.10 Legislative Procedures combines procedures for comprehensive plan amendments and zoning amendments (including both zoning map changes and code text amendments), from current Chapters 2.160 and 20.90, respectively. 15. The proposed Chapter 22.20 Land Use and Development Code Interpretation Procedures would add procedures for citizens to request PDS interpretations of the County's land use and development codes to Page 9of10 1176 File # PLN 2016-00008 Development Procedures Amendment October 18, 2017 Staff Report clarify conflicting or ambiguous wording. Interpretation procedures commonly appear in other jurisdictions' codes, but Whatcom County Code has no such provision. 16. The proposed Chapter 22.25 would contain the fee provisions now contained in WCC 20.04.090 - .092 so that it would apply to other development -related titles of the Whatcom County Code beyond Title 20 Zoning. 17. Some highly detailed requirements currently found in the code are proposed to be removed from code and consolidated into an Administrative Manual that can be updated without requiring a code amendment. 18. The Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan supports streamlining regulations. V. PROPOSED CONCLUSIONS 1. The amendments to the zoning code are in the public interest. 2. The amendments are consistent with the Whatcom County Comprehensive Plan. VI.
