D.

An applicant may apply for preliminary subdivision approval at any time, regardless of prior short subdivision activity.

(Ord. 614 § 4 Exh. D (part), 2001: Dev. regs. § 10.40.050, 1996)

A.

Decision Criteria and Required Findings. Decision making authority for approving, approving with conditions or denying preliminary subdivisions is vested in the town council following review and recommendation by the planning commission. Decision making authority for approving, approving with conditions or denying preliminary short subdivisions is vested in the town planner. The town planner's decision on a short subdivision shall be transmitted to the council at the meeting following the decision, for council information only and visibility to the general public.

1.

The following decision criteria shall be used to determine whether or not the preliminary subdivision or preliminary short subdivision should be approved:

a.

The proposal is consistent with the subdivision design standards listed in Section 16.16.070 of this chapter;

b.

The public use and interest will be served by the subdivision;

c.

Adequate potable water supplies and sewage collection and treatment facilities exist to serve the proposed subdivision;

d.

The proposal is in conformity with any applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances, and adopted plans;

e.

Appropriate provisions are made for, but not limited to, the public health, safety and general welfare for open spaces, drainage ways, streets or roads, alleys, other public ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation, playgrounds, schools and school grounds, sidewalks and safe walking conditions for school children who walk to and from school.

2.

An application for preliminary subdivision or short subdivision approval is not approved until the designated reviewing authority makes written findings that the proposal meets the criteria listed Section 16.16.060 (A) (1).

B.

Effect of Preliminary Approval, Extensions.

1.

Preliminary subdivision approval shall automatically expire five years from the date of preliminary approval unless the applicant has recorded a final plat or made a timely application for extension of approval.

2.

Preliminary short subdivision approval shall automatically expire eighteen (18) months from the date of approval unless the applicant has recorded a final short plat or made a timely application for extension of approval.

3.

The council may grant one extension of up to one year for preliminary subdivision approval and the town planner may grant one extension of up to six months for preliminary short subdivision approvals.

4.

Applications for extension must be made in writing at least thirty (30) days before the date of expiration of preliminary approval.

a.

For preliminary subdivisions, the council shall consider applications for extension at a public meeting and may grant an extension by making written findings that there has been no significant change in the application, that the findings and conditions of the approval are still appropriate and adequately protect the public interest, and that there has been a good faith effort to complete the project.

b.

For preliminary short subdivisions, the town planner shall consider applications for extensions administratively and may grant an extension by making written findings that there has been no significant change in the application, that the findings and conditions of the approval are still appropriate and adequately protect the public interest, and that there has been a good faith effort to complete the project.

(Ord. 614 § 4 Exh. D (part), 2001: Dev. regs. § 10.40.060, 1996)

All subdivision and short subdivisions shall comply with the provisions of RCW 58.17.110 and the following standards for design, except as noted elsewhere in this chapter. These standards shall be incorporated into all applications for preliminary subdivision and short subdivision approval and shall be used to judge applications.

A.

Town Plans and Development Regulations. Proposed subdivisions and short subdivisions shall be in accordance with the Coupeville development regulations and adopted plans of the Town, including but not limited to the comprehensive plan, shoreline master program, comprehensive plan of Ebey's Landing NHR, and the South Main Street study.

B.

Community Assets. The design of proposed subdivisions and short subdivisions shall incorporate, where possible, existing site features including, but not limited to, drainage ways, shorelines and vegetation, existing structures and historical sites and their surroundings, as defined in Section 16.12.080 of this title.

C.

Lot Shape, Size and Building Site.

1.

It is preferred that each lot of a proposed subdivision or short subdivision be generally rectangular in shape. Flag lots (lots connecting to the public right-of-way by means of an access easement or narrow strip of land) and other nonrectangular shaped lots are discouraged, but may be allowed when warranted by unique site conditions. A private driveway or access easement shall not provide access to more than one flag lot.

2.

Lot sizes shall not be less than the minimum size required in the zoning district unless dedicated or restricted by covenant or dedication for open space, park, recreational, utility or other public use.

3.

Each lot, unless dedicated or restricted by covenant or condition for open space, park, recreational, utility or other similar use, shall meet the minimum usable area requirements of the Coupeville development regulations and be served by utilities and vehicular access with a minimum reasonable amount of grading or site disturbance.

4.

Lot Size Averaging. An applicant for a subdivision or short subdivision may elect to use lot size averaging to reduce the square footage of individual lots in exchange for the dedication or set aside of open space within the plat. This option should be considered in cases where the clustering of individual lots will protect valuable open space or natural features. If this option is chosen, the following guidelines shall apply:

a.

To calculate the number of lots possible on a given parcel or parcels of land, use the following formula: total square footage of useable area multiplied by 0.80 divided by minimum lot size in the applicable zoning district.

b.

No single building lot shall be less than seven thousand two hundred (7,200) square feet in the RM-9600 zoning district, nor less than nine thousand six hundred (9,600) square feet in the LDR zoning district, nor less than fourteen thousand five hundred (14,500) square feet in the RR zoning district. Lot size averaging is not permitted in other zoning districts.

c.

All lands set aside or dedicated as open space as part of lot size averaging shall be considered non-developable and shall be proportionately owned by the lot owners in the subdivision. Some passive use of these lands for recreational purposes may be permitted as part of preliminary plat approval.

D.

Hazard Areas. Where subdivision and subsequent development of land may pose a hazard to the subdivision or other property or nearby resources because of steep slopes, unstable soils or changes in quantity or quality of stormwater runoff, the applicant shall have the burden of presenting evidence satisfactory to the Town that such hazards will be mitigated. In the absence of such evidence, subdivision of such land shall be denied.

E.

Natural Vegetation, Vegetation and Features. Clearing of vegetation shall not commence without prior written approval of the Town and shall be limited to the minimum reasonably required to construct the infrastructure associated with the subdivision. Valuable natural and cultural landscape features such as trees, orchards, wetlands, hedgerows and wildlife habitat shall be preserved to the greatest extent feasible. These features shall be shown in preliminary clearing and grading plans at the time of application.

F.

Pedestrian Facilities. Pedestrian and bicycle access to schools, parks, shorelines, recreation areas, open space, public facilities and commercial areas shall be provided by walkway where street access is inadequate or where such a separate pedestrian facility would provide more efficient, direct or safe access or be in accordance with any current pedestrian trail plan.

G.

Scenic Corridors, Historic Sites. Setbacks, density modifications, buffers, landscaping or other design features shall be used to maintain the rural, scenic quality of any designated corridors within the Town. Setbacks, density modifications, buffers, landscaping or other design features shall be used to protect the integrity of public views of historic structures and their surroundings.

H.

Streams and Natural Drainage Ways. Natural drainage ways shall be kept open, unobstructed and shall not be relied upon for stormwater quality treatment.

I.

Future Subdivision. Subdivisions and short subdivisions shall be designed to accommodate the future subdivision of adjoining lands by providing for future access and utility service where appropriate.

J.

Street Names. Street names shall be designated by the Town at the time of preliminary subdivision or short subdivision approval.

K.

Streets and Utilities.

1.

The width of constructed streets shall be kept to the minimum necessary to safely serve the subdivision and adjoining area, including anticipated increased traffic volume. Subdivisions and short subdivisions shall be designed to minimize the number of intersections and access points on arterial streets. Design and construction of streets and utilities shall be in accordance with the standards in Chapter 16.24 of this title, in effect on the date of approval of the preliminary subdivision or short subdivision.

2.

Streets should be designed to conform with the topography of the site. Grading shall be minimized by the careful location of streets, utilities and building sites. Shared access driveways should be used where feasible.

3.

Adjacent lots that border the same street may share a common access from the public street, so long as a thirty (30) foot joint access easement is designated on the face of the plat.

L.

Culs-de-sac.

1.

Generally, through streets, rather than cul-de-sacs, are encouraged. Temporary cul-de-sacs may be designated in a proposed subdivision when it is determined that a through street may be needed in the future.

2.

Temporary and permanent cul-de-sacs shall meet requirements for turnarounds and maximum length specified in Chapter 16.24 of this title.

M.

Open Space Set Aside.

1.

To insure that new plats contribute to the historic rural character of Coupeville, every subdivision shall set aside a portion of the land within the subdivision boundary as permanent open space. Desirable areas for set aside as open include woodlands, wetlands, drainage draws, remnant orchards, hedgerows or other features of the natural landscape. Areas not considered useable area cannot be counted as open space.

2.

The amount of land set aside as permanent open space shall be no less than five percent of the total area being developed.

3.

Land set aside as open space for compliance with this section shall generally be held in private ownership distributed in equal shares among the lot owners in the subdivision. With the agreement of the developer and the town council, the open space land may be dedicated to the Town and designated as public open space.

4.

Subdivisions developed under Section 16.16.070(C)(4), Lot Size Averaging, are exempt from the open space set aside requirements of this section, so long as the open space reserved through lot averaging equals or exceeds the square footage that would be required through open space set aside.

5.

Short subdivisions are exempt from this requirement.

(Ord. 614 § 4 Exh. D (part), 2001: Dev. regs. § 10.40.070, 1996)

A.

Prior to clearing, grading and other ground disturbance associated with the subdivision or short subdivision, construction plans, clearing, grading and drainage plans, utility plans, erosion and sedimentation control plans and street plans shall receive the approval of the town engineer.

B.

Construction plans, clearing, grading and drainage plans, utility plans and street plans shall comply with Town standard construction specifications for water mains, sewers and storm drains and standards specified in Chapter 16.24, Development Regulations.

C.

Work performed shall conform with approved plans.

(Ord. 614 § 4 Exh. D (part), 2001: Dev. regs. § 10.40.080, 1996)

A.

An applicant may request a variance from the requirements of Section 16.16.070 of this chapter (Subdivision design standards) and Chapter 16.24 of this title (Development Regulations) at the time of application for preliminary subdivision or short subdivision approval. Such an application for variance shall include all details necessary to describe and support the variance.

B.

Public notice for the application for preliminary subdivision or preliminary short subdivision approval shall include notice of any associated application for variance.

C.

A variance shall not be approved unless the council makes written findings that:

1.

Granting the variance is not in conflict with the provisions of Chapter 58.17 RCW; and

2.

Granting the variance is in the public interest, and is consistent with the intent and purpose of this title and adopted plans of the Town including, but not limited to, the comprehensive plan.

D.

In granting a variance, the council may require conditions that will, in its judgment, substantially meet the objectives of the standards being modified.

(Ord. 614 § 4 Exh. D (part), 2001: Dev. regs. § 10.40.090, 1996)
