MASON COUNTY Shelton (360) 427-9670 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Belfair (360) 275-4467 Planning Elma (360) 482-5269 Mason County Bldg. 1411 N.5th P.O.Box 279 Shelton,WA 98584 October 14, 2004 TO BE KEPT IN THEE PARCEL FILE Robert Byerly P.O. Box 384 Belfair WA. 98528 0001� RE: Initial Review Questionnaire (IRQ) for land use on parcel 12316-22-00010. Dear Mr. Byerly: This letter is in response to your Initial Review Questionnaire (IRQ) dated August 26, 2004. You are asking to construct a building for retail use on the subject property located on parcel 12316-22-00010. The entire property is zoned as Rural Residential 5 along Old Belfair Highway. The enclosed map shows the location of the subject parcel. On this property there is an existing residence, garage, and septic system that you state that you will continue to use. It is noted that the property is three lots in a short plat that is still under one ownership. The retail land use is allowed as a cottage industry land use on a property with an existing residence. However, the development standards for a cottage industry state that if parking is necessary for customers of the cottage industry land use (such as customers coming to your retail building), then a special use permit must be reviewed and approved to conduct the land use. That permit must be obtained prior to the cottage industry going into operation. Note in the enclosed information, other cottage industry standards include outside storage of materials, number of employees, multiple businesses, exterior of building or premises consistent with residential land uses, existence of noise-fumes-glare-electrical interference detected off the property, and increases in traffic. Please note that certain development standards apply in the Rural Residential 5 zone. The Floor Area Ratio,the fraction of total building areas divided by the area of the subject parcel, must be 1 to 20 (5 percent) or smaller. For every 20,000 sq. ft. of parcel area, you are allowed 1,000 sq. ft. of building area. In addition, individual buildings cannot exceed 3,000 sq. ft. in size and must be located at least 25 feet from front lot lines and 50 feet from other property lines. Landscaping is encouraged in the first 10 feet of this setback. The standards for the Rural Residential 5 zone are also enclosed. Since you will be constructing a new commercial building, you should submit a request for a pre-submission conference. At this meeting, you will meet with representatives of the building, planning, health, and public works departments to discuss how county development standards (setbacks,buffers, construction codes)will affect your project, as ., well as this meeting will provide you with other department requirements for the commercial development of additional buildings. You should contact Charrell or Trish in the Permit Assistance Center(Bldg. 3 at Fifth and Cedar St. or 427-9670 ext. 281)to make the request for the pre-submission conference for the new building and to get information about applying for the special use permit for the retail cottage industry land use. This pre-submission conference will provide you with other department requirements for commercial development. If you have any further questions about these development standards in the residential zone or cottage industry land use,please contact me at (360)427-9670 extension 365. Sincerely, /?4&'4_vv� Allan Borden Long Range Planner JAFRONT COUNTER(KMR)\word documents\IRQ RESPONSES\2004 IRQs\Belfair Rural Area retail cottage industry(R Byerly).doc 1.03 Development Requirements 1.03.010 Permitted Uses, Generally It is the intent of this Chapter to provide for the maximum amount of flexibility in the siting of differing types of land uses. For this reason, the performance standards and buffer yard requirements found at Section 1.03.036 have been developed. However, both the Comprehensive Plan and this Chapter recognize that some uses and densities will create inherent conflicts with surrounding land uses, and with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan. Thus, some uses are prohibited in some areas, and the intensity of some uses(such as residential,expressed in dwelling units per acre,and industrial,expressed in floor area ratio)are restricted in others.Many of the requirements that apply to Rural Lands have been placed in Chapter 1.04. 1.03.020 Matrix of Permitted Uses The intent of this section is to assist proponents and staff in determining whether a proposed land use is consistent with the applicable policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Those policies were formed with the intention to allow property owners and project proponents as much flexibility as possible in the use of their property,within the constraints of the Growth Management Act. Therefore,the following matrix identifies the permitted uses in the urban or resource land areas in Mason County. Permitted uses, as they apply to Rural Lands, have been placed in Chapter 1.04. All uses not listed as permitted uses, accessory uses,or special permit uses in the matrix or Chapter 1.04 are prohibited uses. 1.03.021 Cottage Industries Unless noted by an asterisk(*)any use shown in FIGURE 1.03.020,or any use permitted pursuant to Sections 1.03.022 or 1.03.024, is permitted in any development area as a home-based occupation, or as a cottage industry. The activity shall comply with the criteria in RU-524A,and shall be required to obtain a special use permit unless they comply with the following standards: A. Parking areas shall accommodate residents and employees only; any provision for additional parking shall require a Special Use Permit. B. The outdoor storage of merchandise or materials is allowed if they are not visible to the public from off the site. C. A cottage industry shall involve the owner or lessee of the property who shall reside within the dwelling unit, and shall not employ on the premises more than five (5) non- residents. A temporary increase in the number of employees is permitted to accommodate a business that is seasonal in nature. However, not more than five additional persons shall be employed on a temporary basis (up to six weeks)without a Special Use Permit. D. More than one business may be allowed, in or on the same premises provided that all of the criteria are met for all business combined. E. There shall be no alterations to the outside appearance of the buildings or premises that are not consistent with the residential use of the property, or other visible evidence of the conduct of such cottage industry, other than one sign no larger than 32 square feet. F. No equipment or process shall be used in such home occupations which creates noise, vibration, glare,fumes, odors,or electrical interference detectable to the normal senses off the property. G. The cottage industry shall not create an increase of 5% or more in local traffic. MASON COUNTY DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS June 15,2004 page 8 D.
