AGENDA ITEM TITLE: 2008 Comprehensive Plan Amendments— Review Session
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: None
BACKGROUND:
The Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan includes an annual amendment cycle that runs from
November 2nd to November 1st of the following year. Applications received prior to November 1St are
considered by the Planning Commission in late winter/early spring of the following year, with a
decision by City Council in late spring/early summer.
We anticipate that the Planning Commission will review the following Comprehensive Plan Map
amendments and make a recommendation to City Council by the end of May. City Council may
choose to adopt the individual amendments as recommended by the Planning Commission,
disapprove the amendments, or modify and adopt the proposal. If the Council chooses to modify a
proposal, they must either conduct a public hearing or refer the proposal back to the Planning
Commission for further consideration.
All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community
Development Department received eight (8) requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan
Amendments for 2008. Sites that are approved for a Comprehensive Plan amendment will
automatically receive a zoning designation that is consistent with the new land use designation.
Amend Chapter 1 — Introduction, Chapter 2 - Land Use, Chapter 3 —Transportation, Chapter 5 —
Housing, Chapter 7 — Economic Development, Chapter 9 — Parks, Recreation and the Arts, and
Appendix 19-A, Schedule of Permitted and Accessory Uses. A majority of these amendments are
housekeeping in nature, merely updating information or correcting information. Substantive changes
are being recommended in Chapter 2 — Land Use related to identifying "potential annexation areas"
(PAAs) for the City and establishing policies related to the PAAs.
An amendment is also being recommended to Appendix 19-A, which lists the permitted and
accessory uses allowed in the various zoning districts within the City. The issue being addressed is
that Chapter 2 — Land Use, Policy LUP-9.2 (page 37) states in part that the mix of uses allowed in
either the Corridor Mixed-Use or Mixed Use Center designation should include a variety of housing
types including single family dwelling and duplexes. Single family and duplexes were not included as
permitted uses in the Mixed Use Center zoning district, therefore the Comprehensive Plan and the
1 of 2
zoning regulations are not consistent. This amendment will correct this oversight and bring the plan
and regulations into alignment on this issue.
NOTICE:
Notice for the proposed amendments was placed in the Spokane Valley News Herald on April 23,
2008 and each site was posted with a "Notice of Public Hearing" sign, with a description of the
proposal. Individual notice of the proposals was mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each
amendment.
SEPA REVIEW:
Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA— RCW 43.21C) environmental checklists were
required for each proposed comprehensive plan amendment. Under SEPA, amendments to the
comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions" which are defined as actions involving
decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the
environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the physical development of the
subject properties.
Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each
comprehensive plan amendment request. Determinations of Non-significance (DNS) were issued for
the requested comprehensive plan amendments on February 15, 2008 consistent with the City of
Spokane Valley Environmental Ordinance.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSALS:
To assist the Commission's review, staff has provided a table outlining the 2008 Comprehensive Plan
amendments, and an overview map identifying the Comprehensive Plan map amendment(s).
