Special Use Permit

INTRODUCTION
8
The applicant seeks a special use permit(SUP)to convert an existing detached garage
9 into 624sf of living space in an accessory dwelling unit(ADU). The SUP is approved
10 with conditions.
I I ORAL TESTIMONY
12 Kell McAboy, Mason County planner, summarized the proposal. She stated the
applicant wishes to convert 624sf of an existing detached garage into an accessory
1 dwelling unit. There is an approved 2-party well and a 3-bedroom septic system.
14 There is adequate parking on site. In response to the examiner, Ms. McAboy stated
the existing garage is located within a wellhead protection zone. No exterior
15 expansion of the structure is proposed.
16 Christal Farster, applicant, stated the house is 2-bedroom. No new septic tank is
needed for the existing 3-bedroom design to allow for the addition of the ADU. The
17 Mason County Health Department has already approved the septic.
18 Leslie Nuttman, neighbor, spoke in opposition to the application stating Ms.Farster is
19 a bad neighbor. Though she won't try to block the application, she requested a solid
fence be built along the property line at the applicant's expense. She stated she is
20 concerned the septic is inadequate. She also asked whether MCC 17.04.223, the
21 limitation on the size of lots, is applicable to this lot.
22 Des Arnsby, neighbor, stated he had requested information regarding the applicant's
septic design. In 2010 the applicant installed a curtain drain within 15 feet of the drain
23 field.He wasn't sure this was a permitted action.
24 John Mark Nuttman, neighbor, also asked about the applicability of MCC 17.04.223.
He stated he didn't want to see the ADU become a rental. He said the new septic
25 system was in response to a prior well leak which flooded the drain field. He believes
the applicant's septic system and drain field have failed and appear to be
contaminating a nearby ditch.
SUP/ADU P. I Findings,Conclusions and Decision
II
Lola Ayers, applicant's mother, sated the ADU was being built for her. Her husband
1 had recently passed after a long illness. She herself is disabled. The ADU will be
2 accessible for her wheelchair. The ADU will allow her to live near her kids. She has
financed repairs to the exterior of the garage structure already including new fascia
and a roof. She stated the drainage was an eyesore prior to the new septic system. It
used to be stagnant water.After the curtain drain installation,the area dried up.
4
Kell McAboy stated the County allows up to 7-foot solid fences but does not want to
see this as a condition of approval since the impacts to neighbors is minimal. With
6 respect to MCC 17.04.223, the County allows one ADU per substandard lot when all
other code requirements are met.The proposal meets this threshold. She stated though
7 the Shoreline Master Plan limits the occupancy types of ADU in the shoreline
jurisdiction, there are no such codes outside the shorelines. Ms. McAboy noted
8 subsequent to the SUP, the applicant will need building permit approval and
environmental review. The proposed utilities must be approved by the Department of
9 Health prior to occupancy of the ADU.

1 1 EXHIBITS
12 The seven exhibits identified in the Case Index of the May 11, 2017 staff report were
1> admitted into the record during the hearing.
14 FINDINGS OF FACT
15 Procedural:
16
1. Applicant. The applicant is Christal Farster.
17
2. Hearing. A hearing was held on the application on May 24, 2017, at 1:00
18 p.m., in the Mason County Board of Commissioners Meeting Chambers.
19 Substantive:
20
3. Site/Proposal Description. The applicant is converting 624sf of an existing
21 detached garage into an ADU. The applicant lives in the primary dwelling. The
applicants' mother will live in the ADU. The lot is 0.72 acres located on Chronquist
22 Road off the Grapeview Loop Road near Case Inlet.
23
The site is developed with an existing 2-bedroom home and detached garage. The
24 existing driveway is long and there is adequate parking for both the ADU and the
primary dwelling unit, even with conversion of the existing garage into an ADU. The
25 ADU will be located approximately 25 feet from the principal dwelling (Ex. 3). The
site is outside of shoreline jurisdiction.
SUP/ADU p. 2 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
Both the house and garage are within the 100-foot wellhead protection area. No
1 exterior expansion of the garage structure is proposed.
2 The property has a two-party well and a 3-bedroom septic system. There are two
bedrooms in the existing residence and one proposed bedroom in the ADU. The
existing septic system is adequate to serve both units. Drainage on the site flows
4 toward the road. The septic system and drain field are located between the road and
the house.No clearing or grading is proposed.
6 The proposed ADU has one bedroom, one bathrooms, a living room, a utility/storage
room and a kitchen. The proposed ADU is not a recreational. Once approved, the
7 proposed ADU will be the only ADU structure on the property. A parking area for the
proposed ADU will be provided.
8
4. Characteristics of the Area. The area is a low-density platted residential
9 subdivision. Properties to the east of the subject and across Chronquist Road are
10 vacant. The property to the west is a large, undeveloped tract. Properties to the north
and south are developed with large lot single family homes.
11
5. Adverse Impacts of Proposed Use. According to the information provided
12 by staff in its report and testimony, there does not appear to be an impact on
surrounding properties for traffic, parking, or drainage. This is apparent from the site
13 plan and aerial photograph, which diagram the surrounding area adjacent to the
14 subject parcel (Ex. 3). The ADU will be within an existing structure and no
significant visual impact beyond the existing conditions is anticipated. Given the
15 spacing of homes in the neighborhood, the increase in density proposed by the
applicant should not be noticeable to surrounding residences. An existing and
16 adequate septic system and 2-party well are in place. Staff reports that the proposal
17 will not lower level of service standards below adopted minimums for parks or
transportation facilities. Given these factors, the proposal creates no discernable
18 adverse impacts.
19 CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
20 Procedural:
21
1. Authority of Hearing Examiner. MCC 15.03.050(10) and 17.05.42
22 provide the Examiner with the authority to review and act upon Special Use Permits.
23 Substantive:
24
2. Zoning. The area is zoned Rural Residential-5.
25
3. Review Criteria and Application. MCC 17.03.029 governs ADUs in rural
lands. Under MCC 17.03.029, ADUs in rural lands shall be subject to a Special Use
Permit, unless they are located in the shoreline jurisdiction, in which case they are
SUP/ADU p. 3 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
subject to a shoreline permit. The proposed ADU is not within 200 feet of the
I shoreline and, therefore, shall not be reviewed per the Shoreline Master Program
2 policies and use regulations. The review criteria for the Special Use Permit
application are governed by MCC 17.05.044. These criteria, in addition to
3 miscellaneous criteria for all Hearing Examiner decisions, are quoted and addressed
below.
4
MCC 17.05.044 SPECIAL USE REVIEW CRITERIA:
5
6 (1) That the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and
welfare.
7
4. There are no significant adverse impacts associated with the proposal as
8 determined in Finding of Fact No. 5. Given these factors, there will be no detrimental
9 impact to the public health, safety, and welfare as a result of the proposed ADU.
10 (2) That the proposed use is consistent and compatible with the intent of the
Comprehensive Plan.
11-
5. The ADU is consistent and compatible with the intent of the
12 Comprehensive Plan. Chapter 9 of the Mason County Comprehensive plan provides
that ADUs should be permitted "when minimal impact would occur to surrounding
3 areas. The cumulative impact of like structures on neighboring properties must be
14 considered." As noted in the Findings of Fact, the size of the proposed ADU is
relatively small, but it will be in an area characterized by relatively large lots
15 compared to the size of the ADU being proposed. Due to the large lot sizes, no
adverse cumulative impacts are anticipated. As further found,the ADU will not create
16 any adverse impacts and hence will have minimal impacts on surrounding areas.
17 Given these factors, the approval of other ADUs in the area also will not create any
cumulative adverse impacts.
8 (3) That the proposed use will not introduce hazardous conditions at the site that
19 cannot be mitigated through appropriate measures to protect adjacent properties and
the community at large.
20
21 6. No hazardous conditions are expected, nor have any been identified as a
result of the proposed ADU.No adjacent properties, nor the community at large, will
22 be impacted by the introduction of hazardous conditions from the ADU.
23 (4) That the proposed use is served by adequate public facilities which are in place,
or planned as a condition of approval or as an identified item in the County's Capital
24 Facilities Plan.
25 7. As determined in Finding of Fact No. 5, individual water and septic
systems are in place to serve the proposed ADU. According to the staff report, the
addition of an ADU should not lower the level of service of transportation or
SUP/ADU p. 4 Findings, Conclusions and Decision
neighborhood park facilities below applicable minimum standards and there is no
1 evidence to the contrary. The criterion is met.
2
(5) That the proposed use will not have a significant impact upon existing uses on
3 adjacent lands.
4 8. As determined in Findings of Fact No. 5, no significant impacts are
5 expected to result from this proposal, including impacts on adjoining properties.
6 (6) If located outside an Urban Growth Area, that the proposed use will not result in
the need to extend urban services.
7
9. The addition of an ADU and its use by a single family should not result in
8 a need to extend urban services. The site is accessed from existing roads. The ADU
will be served by individual septic system and well. Therefore, the project will not
9 result in the need to extend urban services.

Re: Building Permit application for Farster residence (441 E. Cronquist Road)
Date: May 5, 2017
The residents of Cronquist Road,Allyn,in Mason County who have signed this
petition have a number of specific concerns related to a proposed accessory
dwelling unit on one property on our road.Application for a building permit for this
construction was submitted to the county on March 28, 2017.The owner has
commented on her immediate and extended plans for the property to several of the
undersigned,and those comments are not in alignment with information given to
the county for the requested permit.
We have been told by Community Development department employees that a public
hearing will be scheduled where interested parties can express their concerns when
a permit for an accessory dwelling unit is applied for on an RR5 zoned property. In
spite of several phone calls to various county offices,to date we have not been
notified of when that will happen, including those of us within 300 feet of the
property of concern. However,we know that several steps of the permitting process
have been completed.This petition is to emphasize that we absolutely expect to
have a chance to voice our concerns at a public hearing if this permit is still moving
forward in the permitting process.We expect notification of that hearing will be
done with adequate lead-time for us to make plans to attend.

They had a new septic system installed 111212010.It was installed as a two bedroom but the tanks and drainfield
were sized for a three bedroom.I was on site last week, saw no problems with the drainfield.The system that was
installed in 2010 was a repair but conforming.When they apply for a building permit, they will need a current
maintenance report.I do not see any problems with an ADU on this parcel.

Cindy,
I am processing a Special Use Permit DDR-2017-00028, for a proposed detached garage conversion to an ADU
on parcel # 122324001130. The next door neighbor to the south called yesterday voicing concerns that the
p 9 Y Y 9
septic drain field is not sufficiently sized for both a house and an ADU and thinks that the drain field might even
be failing for the existing residence. Would you be able to let me know if this parcel is in conformance with
septic before I proceed with my zoning review or if you want to be added in TM for review. Thanks in
advance. The concerned neighbor may be calling you as well - FYI
