BOARD OF MASON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' PROCEEDINGS
June 4, 2019 - PAGE 2
Kell said this is a rezone of two parcels- 32035-12-00000 and 32035-12-00010 on Fireweed
Lane. The land was donated to a non-profit group, Impact Northwest and will not be used for
residential purposes minus the building of a shelter within the campground.
Cmmr. Shutty questioned how the Planning Advisory Commission (PAC) came to their decision
to move forward. Kell explained that there were concerned neighbors at first, but the PAC was
able to answer all concerns and voted unanimously to move forward.
An unknown gentleman questioned what would happen if a new owner took over the
property. He specifically asked if the zoning would revert to RR5. Kell said it would stay RTC
unless it was once again rezoned to become residential. He then asked if they could turn the
property into an RV park since it was zoned RTC. Kell said that would require a special use
permit and could not easily change into said RV park.
No public comment received.
Cmmr. Neatherlin/Trask moved and seconded to approve the rezone request for
30 acres in Rural Residential 5 (RR5) to Rural Tourist Campground (RTC). Motion
carried unanimously. N-aye; S-aye; T-aye. (Ex.A—Res.50-19)
10.2 Public Hearing to consider amendments to Title 8, Chapter 8.52, Resource Ordinance,
relating to the Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP). Staff: Kell Rowen
Kell Rowen gave a brief history of how Mason County entered the VSP and how they have
worked together on the proposed amendments.
Ken VanBuskirk questioned if the language encouraging owners of farmland to enter into an
Open Space Agreement was left in after the amendments. Cmmr. Neatherlin read from the
Work Plan noting that it was.
Ken VanBuskirk then gave public comment in favor of adoption.
Cmmr. Trask/Neatherlin moved and seconded to approve amendments to Title 8,
Chapter 8.52, Resource Ordinance, relating to the Voluntary Stewardship Program
(VSP). Motion carried unanimously. N-aye; S-aye; T-aye. (Ex. B—Res.51-19)
10.3 Public hearing to consider code amendments to Title 17-Zoning, relating to raising
height limits in certain zones within the Urban Growth Areas of Allyn, Belfair, and
Shelton and Rural Commercial Zones 3,4 and 5. Staff: Kell Rowen
Kell Rowen once again took the stand and noted that currently, height limits are limited to 35
feet in most areas, but some areas allow 45 feet or more depending on circumstances. She
said that the PAC voted to approve increasing height limits up to 55 feet with a special use
permit.
Cmmr. Neatherlin questioned the review of proper water systems for fire flow. Kell said that
was not reviewed, but under the Special Use Permit this along with view impacts, traffic
impacts, etc. would all be reviewed.
Cmmr. Shutty asked Jeromy Hicks, Fire Marshal to speak to any firefighting concerns with the
adoption of these height changes. Jeromy said there is an ordinance on record regarding fire
flow, meaning these issues have been addressed. He noted that this is all looked at during the
permitting process and said Belfair has a great water system so there shouldn't be an issue in
that area. In regards to the height versus firetrucks, Jeromy stated that there are 100 story
buildings in Seattle and trucks cannot go that high.
BOARD OF MASON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' PROCEEDINGS
June 4, 2019 - PAGE 3
Ken VanBuskirk questioned what the tallest residential structure is in Belfair. Kell was unsure
of the answer. He then referred to PAC minutes which referred to comments made by Mark
Ziegler regarding this issue and asked if they were included in today's packet. Kell said they
were not. He and Kell had an in-depth discussion about PAC minutes in which this topic was
addressed.
Constance Ibsen asked the Fire Marshal about pressure in hydrants along Hwy. 106 which are
run by PUD #1. leromy explained that many hydrants are used to fill water trucks and pumps
as they don't have the pressure for a direct connection, but they do have the capacity.
Ken VanBuskirk read an email aloud from Herb Gearhardt and asked the Board to table this
item. He submitted into the record, a letter that was given to the PAC on April 15, 2019 and a
copy of materials from the sub-area plan. Ken then spoke about both items.
Constance Ibsen voiced concern noting that these changes in height restrictions do not equal
good planning. She then asked to have Union removed from the code changes.
Cmmr. Shutty said he would be comfortable removing Union and Hoodsport and allowing
some other commercial areas the chance to grow to see what the effects are in Rural Activity
Centers (RAC's). Kell said she would be comfortable limiting this to the Taylor Town RAC and
proposed the following language for Rural Commercial 3,4 and 5:
Building Regulations height-two floors not to exceed 35 feet maximum except for Ag
buildings, cell towers, antennas, water tanks, or necessary structural elements for an
otherwise compliant permitted land use or as reviewed by special use permit not to exceed 55
feet only within the Rural Activity Center of Taylor Town.
Cmmr. Neatherlin/Trask moved and seconded to approve amendments to Title 17-
Zoning, relating to raising height limits in certain zones within the Urban Growth
Areas of Allyn, Belfair, and Shelton and Rural Commercial Zones 3,4 and 5 in the
Taylor Town RAC, excluding the Union and Hoodsport RAC's. Motion carried
unanimously. N-aye; S-aye; T-aye. (Ex.C—Res.52-19)
11. Board's Reports and Calendar -The Commissioners reported on meetings attended the past week
and announced their upcoming weekly meetings.

ATTACHMENT"A"
Resource Ordinance
Title 8.52 MCC
8.52.020 — Purpose.
The purpose of the Resource Ordinance is to protect Mason County's natural resource lands and critical
areas while the County develops its comprehensive plan and associated regulations. The regulations
established in this Chapter,adopted by Ordinance No.77-93,seek to:
Establish uniform processes to be used by Mason County for the review of land use and development
proposals within critical areas and resource lands.
Conserve resource lands for productive economic use by identifying and designating resource lands
where the principal and preferred land use is commercial resource management,and by protecting the
same from incompatible land uses.
Protect the identified critical areas in their natural functions, along with air and water quality,to sustain
the County's quality of life.
Encourage creative development techniques and land use practices which will help to accomplish these
goals.
Encourage the voluntary enrollment of agricultural lands and uses into the Open Space Tax Program
and agricultural activities into the Voluntary Stewardship Program.
This ordinance fulfills the goals of the State Growth Management Act(RCW 36.70A et al)and the State
Environment Policy Act(RCW 43.21).
8.52.030— Definitions.
For the purposes of this chapter:
Voluntary Stewardship Program:Enabled under the state's Growth Management Act(RCW 36.70A.700)
on July 22 2011,this is a non-regulatory, incentive-based approach to protecting critical areas on
agricultural lands,while maintaining agricultural viability.(Refer to MCC 852.050(E))
8.52.050 — Relationship to Other Regulations.
(E) Voluntary Stewardship Program.
Washington's Growth Management Act(Chapter 36.70A RCW)requires all counties to identify and
protect critical areas including critical areas on agricultural lands.The Voluntary Stewardship
Program(VSP) adopted on July 22,2011,offers a voluntary,incentive based approach for
counties to meet that requirement.The Program begins by establishing a baseline of critical area
conditions and then monitors responsive changes to that baseline over a 10-Year period. The VSP
applies to land where agricultural activities occur,and provides a unique strategy to protect
critical areas while also promoting agriculture. Rather than creating new regulations,the VSP
allows Mason County to rely on education,outreach,and voluntary incentive programs to achieve
protection. Under VSP critical areas on lands where agricultural activities are conducted are
protected under this voluntary program instead of the resource regulations through best
management or conservation practices.Lands used for non-agricultural purposes continue to be
regulated under the regulations of this Chapter. The guiding document for the VSP is the Work
Plan; however the VSP is not a regulatory program and the completed Work Plan is not formally
Page 11 Amending Title 8,Chapter 8.52 to Incorporate the Voluntary Stewardship Program
ATTACHMENT"A"
adopted by the Mason County Commissioners. The VSP does not grant the state or the county
any additional regulatory authority.
(1) Work Plan
The Work Plan was developed by the VSP Work Group which is a Commissioner
appointment citizen group comprised of agricultural producers interested citizens and
agency representatives.The Work Plan includes detailed information such as protection
and enhancement goals measurable benchmarks and an implementation, reporting,and
tracking framework. One of the main goals of the Work Plan is to identify conservation
practices that are implemented under existing programs or voluntarily implemented
practices,and identify future goals and benchmarks for continued protection and
enhancement of the County's critical area functions and values.
(2) Participation in VSP
The VSP applies to all agricultural activities where they intersect with critical areas
including new and ongoing activities. Many agricultural operators in Mason County are
already conducting conservation practices that promote agricultural viability while also
providing protections to critical areas. Under VSP,operators have flexibility in how they
participate ranging from continuing current agricultural operations outside of any tracking
framework to implementing an Individual Stewardship Plan with new or additional
conservation practices and annually sharing practices implemented as part of the reporting
process. No agricultural operator will be required to participate in voluntary stewardship
practices as part of this program,and the program cannot require anyone to discontinue
any agricultural activities legally existing before July 22, 2011.
(3) Individual Stewardship Plans
Individual Stewardship Plans(ISPs)areeg nay prepared by the Mason Conservation
District, as the designated technical assistance entity,together with the agricultural
operator,to capture the protection and/or enhancement activities performed by the
operator as part of the VSP ISPs are not defined in the VSP statute and could even take
the form of a simple checklist of conservation practices and programs that further the goals
of the VSP.Every ISP developed as part of the VSP will count toward the success of the
overall program,even if it captures conservation practices already being implemented as
long as they were started after the baseline date of July 22,2011.
(4) Baseline Conditions
The effective date of the VSP legislation is July 22, 2011.This date identifies the baseline for
protecting critical areas functions and maintaining agricultural viability that will be the
comparison for determining the success of the Work Plan during implementation.
(5) Benefits to Participation
The VSP serves as an alternative to the regulatory approach of the GMA by allowing
Counties to show protection of critical areas through voluntary stewardship measures.
Participating in VSP contributes to its overall success,which means less regulatory burden
on Mason County's agriculture operators.At the County level,the VSP provides an
opportunity to avoid application of critical area regulations to agricultural activities,while
developing a locally-tailored approach to protection of critical areas on agricultural lands.
At the individual level, participants receive technical assistance including leveraging existing
Page l 2 Amending Title 8,Chapter 8.52 to Incorporate the Voluntary Stewardship Program
ATTACHMENT"A"
voluntary incentive programs such as financial assistance and cost share programs, and the
planning and implementation of conservation activities. VSP encourages the
implementation of conservation activities_that benefit agricultural viability.
(6) Regulatory Backstop
The VSP allows for counties to incorporate existing regulations that help achieve the Work
Plan's goals and benchmarks These regulatory backstops are portions of this Chapter that
will remain in full force and effect and existing and future agricultural activities occurring
in these critical areas will continue to be regulated under the County's resource
regulations. Under the approved Work Plan,Section 8.52.140(Geologically Hazardous
Areas),Section 8.52.150(Seismic Hazard,Areas),and Section 8.52.130(Frequently Flooded
Areas)will remain in effect for agricultural activities occurring in these critical areas.
8.52.170 — Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas.
(D) Establishment of Buffers on Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas.
FWHCA's shall have buffers established and maintained along their perimeters. Buffers shall be
retained in their natural condition, except as provided elsewhere in the ordinance codified in this
chapter.
(4) Activities in FWHCA's or Buffers that Do Not Require a Habitat Management Plan.
