The regulations codified under Chapters 17. 10 to 17.17 shall be known as the Allyn Zoning Code, which code adopts a zoning districting plan for the Allyn urban growth area.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The Allyn Zoning Code is enacted under the authority and police powers of Mason County and the Revised Code of Washington including, but not limited to, the requirements and authority of Chapter 36.70, Planning Enabling Act and Chapter 36.70A RCW, the Washington State Growth Management Act.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

Purpose. The purpose of this code is to:

(1)

Establish zoning districts (map) and development regulations (text) to guide the development and use of property within the Allyn Urban Growth Area (AUGA) consistent with and implementing the vision, goals and policies of the Mason County Comprehensive Plan and of the Allyn Urban Growth Area Plan.

(2)

Provide safe, attractive and livable residential neighborhoods with a variety of affordable housing units for at members of the community.

(3)

Provide for a combination of neighborhood, community wide and tourist based commercial opportunities within distinct functional zoning districts that encourage compatible and complementary uses with a related scale and design.

(4)

Provide adequate parking, attractive signage, pedestrian access and open spaces.

(5)

Promote an urban and neighborhood design that enhances public safety through adequate but non-intrusive street and structure lighting, creation of defensible spaces, reduced response times, identification and separation of hazardous uses, readable and consistent building addressing and adequate fire hydrant location, flows and pressure.

(6)

Provide for development of a sustainable urban infrastructure, with minimum negative impacts on the environment and limiting fiscal impacts on existing residents and businesses, concurrent with the demand for services.

(7)

Provide for efficient and safe traffic flow for vehicles, non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians.

Provide for thorough, timely and complete review of development proposals to ensure compatibility with the Allyn urban growth area comprehensive plan as well as county and state design, construction and environmental regulations.

Applicability. Except as specifically provided below, the regulations in Chapters 17.10 through 17.16 of the Allyn Zoning Code apply to the use and development of all the properties located within the boundary of the Allyn urban growth area. Use and development of properties includes, but is not limited to, new uses and development as well as changes of use or alteration to existing structures or developed sites.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

(Ord. No. 2022-093, Att. B, 12-20-2022)

(a)

Comprehensive Plan. The Growth Management Act requires consistency between the comprehensive plan and development regulations such as zoning. These zoning regulations are intended to implement the Growth Management Act Goals, the county wide planning policies, and the goals, policies and objectives adopted in the comprehensive plan for urban areas. This includes, but is not limited to: land use, building density and intensity, roadway functionality, utilities and infrastructure, open space, housing, protection of sensitive environmental areas and concurrency of infrastructure.

(b)

Mason County Code. All other sections of the Mason County Code apply within the Allyn Urban Growth Area as provided in those sections, except where the Allyn Zoning Code provides text or maps specific to the Allyn UGA.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The county has no authority to enforce private covenants, conditions and restrictions either recorded by deed or other agreements except as their compliance may have been made a part of a project approval. However, permit approval by the county does not establish a right in conflict with private Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The Allyn Zoning Code specifically defines the following definitions and abbreviations. For other definitions, refer to the Mason County Code, Title 17, Chapter 17.06 Definitions:

"Accessory dwelling unit" or "ADU" means a second dwelling unit added onto or created within an existing single-family dwelling for use as a completely independent or semi-independent unit with provisions for cooking, eating, sanitation and sleeping. See Section 17.03.029 for requirements for ADUs as applicable.

"Group dwellings" means and includes boarding houses, nursing homes, rest homes, boarding schools, or private residence clubs, excluding adult family homes of six or fewer persons as exempted by state regulation.

"Gross acreage" or "gross area" means all land, excluding tidelands, within the exterior boundaries of the development, including, but not limited to, land allocated for open space and land to be dedicated for streets or roads.

"Height, building" or "building height" means the vertical distance from average finish grade level to the highest point of a building or structure excluding any chimney, antenna, or other uninhabitable vertical appurtenances.

"Lot coverage" means the portion of a lot that is occupied by impervious surfaces, including, but not limited to, buildings, parking areas, and sidewalks.

"Net acres," "net acreage," or "net square feet" means the net acreage or square-footage is calculated from the gross area of the site less any lands allocated for open space or right-of-way.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007; Ord. No. 2022-006, Att. B, 1-18-2022; Ord. No. 2022-093, Att. B, 12-20-2022)

Zoning Districts within the Allyn UGA are established as follows:

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

(a)

A parcel specific Allyn UGA Official Zoning Map (Allyn Map), designating the boundaries of zoning districts and approved overlay districts and planned developments, shall be adopted and signed by the county board of commissioners, which map shall be on file with the planning department. The zoning districts established by this title are also available as a series of GIS layers ("layers") on the Mason County GIS (gis.masoncountywa.gov/mason). The public web-based GIS is adopted as a part of this title insofar as it indicates such designations, locations and boundaries of zoning districts, and shall be deemed to be part of this title.

(b)

The map ("layers") shall be amended as provided for in Title 17, Section 17.05.079 Amendments of the Mason County Code.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

(Ord. No. 2022-093, Att. B, 12-20-2022)

To provide for regulations that are applicable to the various zoning districts in the Allyn UGA in general. Development within the districts established by the Allyn Zoning Code, Chapters 17.10 to 17.17 shall be subject to the general regulations and provisions of this chapter.

Group dwellings, such as boarding houses, nursing homes, rest homes, boarding schools, or private residence clubs, excluding adult family homes of six or fewer persons as exempted by state regulation, shall be permitted only in multifamily residential districts and shall require a special use permit for the establishment, operation and maintenance of such use. State licensed adult family homes are permitted uses in all residential and commercial zones.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

Accessory uses and buildings may only be established concurrent with or subsequent to the primary structure. They shall be consistent in design with the primary building, and they shall not alter the nature of the use on site in respect to uses permitted in the district.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

Chimneys, silos, cupolas, monuments, radio and other towers, water tanks, church steeples and similar structures and mechanical appurtenances may be permitted in excess of height limits provided a special use permit is first obtained in each case; provided, however, that telecommunication towers and antenna and amateur radio are regulated under Ordinance Number 5-98 as amended (Ordinance Number 53-04). (Note: Ordinance Number 5-98 allows addition of an antenna to existing structures under certain height limits and camouflaged "alternative tower structures" up to seventy feet in urban growth areas without a special use permit. Amateur radio is not restricted.)

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

It is recognized that certain uses have special operational characteristics that have the potential to adversely affect adjacent properties and/or businesses. Accordingly, uses that are conditionally allowed within the established zoning districts, subject to obtaining a special use permit, shall require review and approval on an individual basis.

Special use permits shall be reviewed by the standards adopted in Chapter 17.05, Article V of the Mason County Code. As a condition of approval, the special use permit review shall include consideration of operating hours, adjacent and nearby incompatible uses, parking demand and availability, noise, access, impact on services, security and suitability of the site and/or structure to the proposed use and may provide conditions on the proposal appropriate to the findings on these issues in addition to the other criteria for a special use permit.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The clustering of residential density as provided in a master development plan or on adjoining lots in common ownership is allowed in residential districts only to provide a diversity of housing types densities, and affordability, preserve unique, fragile, and environmentally critical areas; provide efficient use of the land and infrastructure; implement low impact development techniques; promote innovative, quality design; and provide for the inclusion of on-site amenities such as open spaces, community facilities, enhanced landscaping, and recreational opportunities. Cluster development allows grouping of residential structures on a portion of the available land while reserving a significant amount of the site as undeveloped open space. Housing density of the underlying district remains the same while residences are clustered on a smaller portion of the total available land. The remaining land shall be converted into undeveloped open space and shared by the residents of the community. Maximum lot coverage, lot area, building height, dimensions, setbacks, and parking requirements for the underlying zoning district shall apply to the cluster development.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

(Ord. No. 2022-093, Att. B, 12-20-2022)

The intent of the planned development (PD) overlay zoning district is to encourage creative, imaginative new development that would not otherwise be allowed under the strict application of this title. Specifically, it is the purpose of this chapter to:

(1)

Encourage flexibility in design and development that will result in a more efficient and desirable use of land and greater preservation of open space;

(2)

Permit flexibility of design, placement of buildings, use of required open spaces, circulation facilities, off-street parking areas, and otherwise better utilize the potential of sites characterized by special features, such as geography, topography, size or shape;

(3)

Provide for maximum efficiency in layout of streets, utility networks, and other public improvements;

(4)

Produce an integrated or balanced development of supportive uses that might otherwise be inharmonious or incongruous;

(5)

Provide a guide for developers and county officials who review and approve developments meeting the standards and purposes of this chapter; and

(6)

Encourage the use of low impact development (LID) practices to reduce stormwater runoff, and promote the use of credits or incentives to achieve this purpose.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

Planned development, approved in accordance with the procedures of this chapter, shall be an overlay zone and the uses are limited to those which are allowed in the underlying zoning district. Planned developments shall be required where this overlay zone appears on the Allyn urban growth area (UGA) zoning map. Planned developments shall be permitted in all zoning districts, with exception of Public Open Space. The approval of a planned development shall modify and supersede the regulations of the underlying zoning district, except in the case of allowable residential density and uses, and the specific design standards within Mason County Code Title 16, Plats and Subdivisions.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The following standards shall govern the interpretation and administration of this section:

(1)

Relationship of PD Site to Adjacent Areas. The design of a planned development shall take into account the relationship of the site to the surrounding areas. The perimeter of the PD shall be so designed as to minimize undesirable impact of the PD on adjacent properties and, conversely, to minimize undesirable impact of adjacent land use and development characteristics on the PD.

(2)

Site Acreage Minimum. The minimum site shall be one acre.

(3)

Minimum Lot Size. The minimum lot size provisions of other sections of the zoning ordinance are waived in a planned development.

(4)

Density. In a PD, the density allowed within the underlying zoning district shall determine the dwelling unit density of the PD.

(5)

Maximum Coverage. Building coverage and development of the site shall not exceed the percentage permitted by the underlying zone.

(6)

Landscaping Required. All common open space shall be landscaped in accordance with the landscaping plan submitted by the applicant and approved by the hearing examiner. Natural landscape features which are to be preserved, such as existing trees, drainage ways, rock out-croppings, etc., may be included as part of the required setback buffer and landscaping.

(7)

Setback and Side Yard Requirements.

(A)

Building and parking setbacks along the exterior boundary line of the PD area shall meet the required setbacks within the underlying zoning district, or, if the abutting properties are undeveloped, a reduction of up to twenty percent of the minimum required setback is allowed. In no event shall such setbacks be less than five feet.

(B)

Setbacks or Side Yards Between Buildings. The standard setbacks and yard requirements between buildings may be waived in a PD. Buildings may have common walls and, therefore, built to the property line as in townhouse construction. Wherever buildings are separated, a minimum distance of ten feet shall be maintained between such buildings.

(8)

Off-Street Parking. Off-street parking shall be provided in a PD in the same ratios for types of buildings and uses as required for the underlying zoning district, and as described in Chapters 17.10 through 17.17.

(9)

Commercial developments are subject to binding site plan review procedures as described in the Mason County Code, Section 17.03.031.

(Ord. 63-07 Exh. A (part), 2007).

The following standards shall govern the interpretation of this section:

Where practical, the proposed dedicated open space shall be located adjacent to other established or planned park and recreational areas in adjacent developments, schools, or county parks; provided, that such dedication would increase the overall benefit to the residents of the subject PD and conform to other criteria in the section.

(3)

Access.

(A)

All dwelling units within the PD must be provided legal access to the proposed area for dedication. Private or common access roads, trees or other landscaping may separate the area proposed for dedication. However, access should not be blocked by major obstacles such as state routes, arterial roads, or canyons and/or ravines where pedestrian traits cannot be established.

(B)

Areas dedicated for active recreational open space shall have reasonable access from street frontages. Design measures should accomplish the purposes of access and security.

(4)

Types of Open Space.

(A)

Land dedicated for open space should be usable for (i) greenbelts that serve as a buffer, using native vegetation, or an aesthetic amenity such as boulevard trees; (ii) active or passive recreational activities; or (iii) for protecting environmentally sensitive areas such as wetlands.

(B)

Except as provided in subsection (4)(c) or (d) below, thirty percent of the dedicated open space area shall be suitable for active recreation. The topography, soils, hydrology, and other physical characteristics of the area proposed for active recreation shall be of such quality as to provide a dry, obstacle-free space in a configuration which is suitable for active recreation.

(C)

The percentage of active recreational areas may be increased to as high as fifty percent to meet anticipated recreational needs.

(D)

The percentage of active recreational area may be decreased to as low as zero if it is determined that: (i) inclusion of buffers or environmentally sensitive lands such as wetlands would better meet the open space needs of the residents of the subdivision; or (ii) meeting the standard would require detrimental grading or other disturbance of the natural setting.

(5)

Structures. Common open space may contain complimentary structures, such as a gazebo or maintenance equipment shed, and improvements as are necessary and appropriate for the benefit and enjoyment of residents of the PD, provided that the building coverage of such building or structure combined with the building coverage of the residential structures shall not exceed the maximum permitted by the underlying zoning district.
