passed unanimously by voice vote.
Anacortes Railway Presentation
Brooks Middleton, 4419 H Avenue, and his colleague Per Kefgen reported on the project to reactivate the
Tommy Thompson train and narrow gauge railway. Mr. Middleton displayed a map of the proposed
Phase I route which followed the historic route of standard gauge trains from 4th to 11th Streets largely
along Market Street. He said that part of the route was on Port of Anacortes property and part was on City
of Anacortes property. He reported that Port Commissioners unanimously approved the train's use of
their property the prior Thursday. Mr. Middleton shared a presentation summarizing his group's proposal
and discussed the potential tourism draw of the train and the feasibility investigation already completed.
He said the Anacortes Railway is a registered non-profit with a certified steam train operator and
community support to maintain the train. He anticipated that the railway would be self-supporting
including maintaining insurance. Mr. Middleton addressed concerns about the permanence of the
infrastructure, saying that both the train and the tracks could relatively easily be moved if required. He
cited widespread community support for the railway and the wealth of experience available locally. He
requested permission to run the train on city property and also to construct a secure shelter for the train
adjacent to the tracks, possibly east of the W.T. Preston.
Mayor Gere asked Planning Director Don Measamer what the next steps might be. Mr. Measamer
discussed insurance requirements, a letter of understanding with the city addressing use of right of way
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 2
and maintenance of the train, and wetland mitigation along the proposed route. Mr. Measamer asked if
Council wished for staff to begin drafting a letter of understanding.
Mr. Middleton responded to councilmember questions about potential locations for a train shed. Ms.
Lovelett reported from the discussion of the topic at prior Depot master planning meetings. She agreed
there was widespread interest in finding solutions to reactivate the train as a tourist attraction and
educational opportunity at virtually no cost to the city. Mr. Johnson, Ms. Pickett, Mr.Adams and Mr.
Archibald supported the concept. Mr. Walters did not. Mayor Gere concluded that the majority of the
councilmembers present would like Mr. Measamer to begin investigating a memorandum of agreement
with the Anacortes Railway.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
Open Record Public Hearing, SPL-2015-0006,38th Street Short Plat, Appeal of Administrative
Decision
Mayor Gere opened the open record public hearing on the appeal of the administrative decision
approving SPL-2015-0006, 38th Street Short Plat. The Mayor advised this was a quasi-judicial hearing
before the Council which was acting as the appellant body reviewing the administrative decision of the
Planning Director.She asked City Attorney Darcy Swetnam to address the hearing procedures and the
standard to be used in evaluating the appeal.
Ms. Swetnam advised that during this quasi-judicial hearing Council should restrict its review to the issues
raised by the appellant in her appeal. Ms. Swetnam explained that the standard of review in this matter
was substantial evidence so if the administrator's findings were supported by substantial evidence
(sufficient evidence to persuade a fair minded person of the truth or correctness of the decision) his
decision should be affirmed and the appeal denied; if the administrator's approval was not supported by
substantial evidence the appeal should be granted. She explained that the substantial evidence standard
gives some deference to the administrator for his expertise in local rules and procedures.
Mayor Gere summarized the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine. She then asked councilmembers to
indicate if they had any interest in the property or the application or if they owned property within 300 feet
of the subject property; if they stood to gain or financially benefit as a result of the outcome of the hearing;
if they could hear and consider the application in a fair and objective manner; and if they had engaged in
any ex parte communication with the proponents or the opponents and if so, to disclose the substance of
such communication so that interested parties could rebut them.
Ms. Lovelett stated that the subject property is adjacent to land owned by her parents so she would
recuse herself from participating in the hearing. Ms. Lovelett left the Council Chambers.
No other councilmembers made disclosures.
Mayor Gere asked if anyone in the audience wished to challenge any councilmember's participation on
the basis of the Appearance of Fairness Doctrine. No one present raised a challenge.
Associate Planner Kevin Cricchio summarized the project, referring to his slide presentation included in
the packet materials for the evening. He said the 9-lot short plat was reviewed and approved by the
administrator. He addressed the site and surrounding zoning and land uses, acreage of the project,
density calculations, lot size, the application chronology, noticing, critical areas, tree preservation, SEPA
environmental review, transportation, notice of decision, appeals received and appeals withdrawn. Mr.
Cricchio quoted the six assignments of error raised in the appeal. He advised that the staff response to
each assignment was included in the staff report in the packet. Mr. Cricchio displayed aerial photos of the
area and the short plat map and said the civil plans indicated the street access for each lot.
Mr. Johnson noted the Kelly appeal had been withdrawn and asked for clarification of the location of the
unimproved K Avenue right of way. Mr. Measamer pointed out the unopened right of way west of Lots 2,
1 and 9. He said a building permit application had been filed for Lot 2 showing a driveway access onto the
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 3
K Avenue right of way and a neighbor had appealed the short plat because of that but that the applicant
had worked out a paved access on that road to reduce dust concerns so the appeal had been withdrawn.
Mr. Measamer said the building permit had not been issued and was not subject to the present appeal.
Mayor Gere then opened the hearing for public comment. She asked that everyone who wished to speak
stand and be sworn in. Sara Holahan, Pam Allen, John Ravnik and Steve Nicol stood, raised their right
hands, and swore to affirm and tell the truth in the testimony they were about to give. Mayor Gere
reminded the speakers to provide a full name and address for the record, keep remarks to 10 minutes,
restrict comments to appeals of the 38th Street short plat, and provide any physical evidence to staff to be
marked with an exhibit label.
Mayor Gere invited the appellant to the microphone to present her appeal and provided 15 minutes for
her to do so.
Sara Holahan, 1511 38th Street, presented her appeal, referring to her slide presentation which was
added to the packet materials for the evening. She said the scope of the short plat was radically out of
scale with the neighborhood and argued that the preliminary plot map showed too many lots for the
acreage and the conditions. She focused her presentation on minimum setback requirements in the rules
for short cul-de-sacs, stormwater drainage plan, and landscaping and tree protection. She cited AMC
16.32.020, Short cul-de-sac, said the proposed cul-de-sac is longer than 150 feet, and asked for
clarification on how the length of short cul-de-sacs are measured. She also expressed concern that Lot 9
would be later subdivided, creating more than the allowed six lots on the short cul-de-sac, and objected
that the addresses for the lots were not included in the short plat application. Ms. Holahan then cited
setback requirements from AMC 17.36.060 and indicated on a sketch in her presentation that Lots 2 and
3 would not have setbacks consistent with that code. She also objected that Lot 2 would not have 30 feet
of street frontage. Ms. Holahan next addressed stormwater which she said runs down 38th Street from
Ace of Hearts Park. She reviewed DOE mitigation criteria and argued that the short plat's proposed
bioswale is not large enough, and is also located where the sidewalk should be. Ms. Holahan then turned
to the tree preservation plan. She said some of the trees that would be saved according to the plan would
in fact be damaged if K Avenue was improved to provide driveway access. Ms. Holahan objected that the
landscaping shown on the plan overlaps the bioswale. She also objected that the proposed location of
sidewalks did not include a 6-foot planted median separating the sidewalk from curb and gutter as
specified in AMC 16.32.020, Pedestrian Facilities. Ms. Holahan concluded that the short plat needed
further review including specifications for the drainage plan, increase in the biofiltration area, confirmation
that lots meet minimum setbacks, sidewalk and landscaping plans to include a planting strip along 38th
Street, and additional tree planting to account for trees that would be lost due to an inadequate tree
preservation plan.
Mayor Gere then invited the applicant to respond.
Pam Allen, 14435 Jura Place, responded to a few points in the appeal, referring to her slide presentation
which was added to the packet materials for the evening.She explained the prior configuration of homes
on the property, then demonstrated on a site plan that the proposed short plat was surrounded by many
7500 SF lots which meet the minimum lot size of the R2 zone. Regarding parking, Ms. Allen displayed
drawings showing that the proposed lots would provide more than the required two off street parking
spaces per lot. Ms. Allen said key points of the short plat included lack of critical areas, a strong tree
preservation plan, and conformance with minimum lots size and maximum density per AMC 17.36.050
and AMC 17.36.070. Ms. Allen concluded by noting the shortage of housing for working families, first time
home buyers and seniors. She asked that the appeal be denied and the project be allowed to move
forward.
John Ravnik, 1633 Lindamood Lane, Burlington, civil engineer for the applicant, addressed some of the
concerns raised in the appeal including drainage, new road and the widening of 38th Street. He related the
investigation of infiltration and detention requirements per the original DOE standards and said the city
engineering staff did not want a detention facility included in the short plat but rather treatment of water
quality so stormwater could eventually drain into the bay. He said the wording "bioinfiltration and rain
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 4
garden" came from city staff, not the applicant. The applicant is instead proposing biofiltration, using DOE
criteria. He said the proposed bioswale exceeds the DOE criteria except the 100-foot minimum length,
which the engineering department had accepted. Mr. Ravnik displayed civil drawings showing the
proposed storm drainage improvements along 381h Street and a runoff interceptor trench to protect
adjoining properties. Mr. Ravnik then addressed measurement of the cul-de-sac length, saying that City
engineering staff had told him to measure from the south edge of 38th Street. He said the "extra 8 feet"
alleged by the appellant had no material effect but that the cul-de-sac would be moved 8 feet if the city so
directed. Finally, Mr. Ravnik explained why the sidewalk was proposed to be installed adjacent to the
street.
Steven Nicol, 904 South Third Street, Mount Vernon, attorney representing the applicant, enumerated
how all six issues raised by the appeal were adequately addressed by the conditions imposed by the
Planning Department as part of the preliminary approval. Mr. Nicol noted that on May 23, 2016 the
appellant had responded to staff comments on the appeal. He said he objected to that response, that it
was effectively an additional appeal filed after the appeal deadline, and that it was material. Mr. Nicol said
the short plat was consistent with all the requirements of the R2 zone and so the appeal should be
denied. Mr. Nicol also argued that the setbacks on flag Lot 2 were correct per code, quoting from the
code and describing the applicant and staff interpretation of what would be the front yard and side yard on
that lot. In response to a question from Mr. Archibald, Mr. Measamer said the proposed Lot 2 was typical
for flag yard setbacks in town. He noted that the code is silent on the application of setbacks on flag lots.
Mr. Nicol added that AMC 16.32.020 says sidewalks "normally" rather than "shall" have a planted median.
Mr. Nicol concluded that his client was willing to mitigate any legitimate problem and meet any legal
requirement.
Mayor Gere then opened the floor to public comment, asking speakers to limit comments to three
minutes. She asked everyone who wished to speak to stand and be sworn in. Wil Houppermans and
Sean Bell stood, raised their right hands, and swore to affirm and tell the truth in the testimony they were
about to give.
Wil Houppermans, 3412 K Avenue, said everyone should have the definition of the relevant terms
available to them on line. He said front yard setbacks are measured over the full width of the lot,the width
of the lot is parallel to the frontage, and on Lot 2 that goes from the left to the right.
Sean Bell, 1511 38th Street, addressed drainage which he said he had been studying for 20 years. He
said Fidalgo soils have very poor infiltration and that DOE grants to the City to act on DOE's behalf to
understand and plan for drainage. In relation to pollutants moving from one property to another, DOE has
final stay. Mr. Bell asked what DOE stormwater plan the City of Anacortes was using and that the
Planning Department address how it would implement the new regulations that go into effect January
2017.
No other members of the public wished to address the Council.
Mayor Gere allowed the appellant and the applicant each five minutes for rebuttal.
Ms. Holahan expressed concern with the engineer's presentation. She also clarified that she had not
requested a sidewalk planting median in the cul-de-sac, only along 38th Street.
Mr. Nicol said that per the AMC, front yard is the open space between buildings and the front property line
and the code was what everyone had to go by. In relation to the length of the cul-de-sac, he said the
measurement specification varies between jurisdictions and the Planning Director should do it the way it's
been done in the past to be consistent. Mr. Nicol clarified that the combined side yard setbacks on Lot 5
meet the code requirement of 15 feet.
Mr. Walters asked about reconfiguring lots so Lot 4 could access 38th Street and Lot 2 could cease to be
a flag lot. Mr. Ravnik explained that was not possible because Lot 4 access to 38th would be within 50 feet
of M Avenue.
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 5
No one else wishing to speak, at 8: 24 p.m. Mayor Gere closed the public hearing and advised that
Council would deliberate on the appeal with no more comment from interested parties unless Council had
questions. She said Council could make a decision or postpone to a later date.
Mr. Measamer clarified that the measurement of the cul-de-sac was from the south edge of 38th Street
pavement to the center of the cul-de-sac. Steve Lange, Engineering Technician, said he measured from
the right of way line of 38th Street to the center of the cul-de-sac, since the pavement did not always
match the right of way. He said he'd seen it done that way elsewhere.
Mayor Gere asked each councilmember to speak in turn with any questions or comments.
Mr. Johnson clarified the short cul-de-sac standard with Mr. Measamer and estimated that the cul-de-sac
was 160' long.
Ms. Pickett had no questions.
Mr. Adams asked if Lot 9 could have a duplex built on it. Mr. Measamer said that would require a
conditional use permit in the R2 use zone. Mr. Adams said he would not want to see that lot split in the
future.
Mr. Archibald asked for confirmation of the cul-de-sac length. Mr. Measamer pointed out that the
conditions of tentative approval required maximum 150 feet so the applicant would have to achieve a 150
foot maximum to be granted final plat approval. Ms. Swetnam concurred.
Ms. Pickett said the project would look very like the rest of the neighborhood when viewed from 38th
Street, that the short plat met lot size and density requirements in the code, and that there was no reason
to sustain the appeal.
Mr. Johnson asked about the sidewalk planting issue raised by the appellant. Ms. Swetnam said AMC
16.32.020 allows the city engineer to modify or eliminate the separation where warranted. Mr. Lange
explained that the sidewalk alignment along 38th Street would eventually change when the properties to
the east were built out.
Mr. Walters explained why he saw no reason to grant the appeal on the grounds of drainage, tree
preservation, consistency with the comprehensive plan, or sidewalks. He raised the question of required
developed street frontage for Lot 2. Mr. Measamer explained the current conflict in the code between
AMC 16.20.040 which requires 30 feet of road frontage and AMC 17.36.110 which requires 20 feet of
street frontage. Mr.Walters argued that Title 16 governing subdivisions was more applicable. He said he
found no reason to sustain the appeal for any of the identified issues except the flag lot and required
frontage on 38th Street.
Mr. Walters moved, seconded by Mr. Archibald, to have the City Attorney draft Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law that reject the appeal for each of the issues except the question of the required
frontage onto 38th Street and remand the application to the department for re-evaluation based on a
requirement for 30 feet of street frontage. Ms. Swetnam clarified that the motion included a requirement of
30 feet of street frontage for the entire depth of the flag "pole".
Ms. Pickett asked for a legal opinion on requiring 30 feet of frontage if 20 feet had been typically used on
past projects. Ms. Swetnam confirmed that a conflict existed in the code and said that Council was not
bound by past interpretations if those interpretations were incorrect. She said Council could direct that the
correct interpretation would be a 30-foot width for the entire depth of the flag "pole". Mr. Measamer
observed that many codes include a provision that in the case of conflict, the most restrictive
interpretation applies. In this case, 30 feet of frontage would be the most restrictive.
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 6
Vote on motion by Mr. Walters: Ayes- Walters and Archibald. Nays- Johnson, Pickett, and Adams.
Motion failed.
Ms. Pickett moved, seconded by Mr. Johnson, to deny the appeal. Vote: Ayes- Johnson, Pickett and
Adams. Nays - Walters and Archibald. Motion carried.
At approximately 9:07 p.m. Mayor Gere called a 5-minute break. She announced that the remaining
public works agenda items would be postponed to a future meeting and that Ordinance 2980 establishing
a moratorium on PUD applications would be considered after the break.
Ms. Lovelett returned to the Council chambers.
At approximately 9:12 p.m. the mayor called the meeting back to order.
Public Hearing: Proposed Water Use Efficiency Goal (WUE)
Due to the late hour this agenda item was postponed to a future meeting.

Due to the late hour this agenda item was postponed to a future meeting.
Ordinance 2980: Establishing a Moratorium on the Receipt and Processing of Planned Unit
Development Applications
Ms. Swetnam opened a discussion on possibly establishing a moratorium on accepting and processing
new applications for planned unit developments (PUDs). Referring to her slide presentation included in
the evening's packet materials, Ms. Swetnam quoted the relevant AMC sections. She listed the five PUD
applications submitted to the city since 2014 and summarized the current procedures for processing PUD
applications. Ms. Swetnam explained the primary reasons for considering a moratorium including unclear
procedural rules and the lack of standards for approval of PUDs. She provided some examples of PUD
criteria from other jurisdictions. Ms. Swetnam cited RCW 36.70A.390 and RCW 35A.63.220 which allow
the city to establish a moratorium for up to six months subject to specified public hearing and work plan
requirements. She outlined staff's plan for updating the PUD code as part of the new Title 19 of the
Anacortes Municipal Code and indicated a six-month time frame was anticipated. Ms. Swetnam outlined
the features of the proposed moratorium, which would go into effect immediately, would set a public
hearing August 1, 2016, and would not apply to PUD applications already accepted and deemed
complete by staff at the time of adoption of the moratorium.
Council engaged in considerable discussion regarding PUD applications currently pending and potentially
in preparation. Mr. Measamer advised that two complete PUD applications were currently in process and
would continue to be processed under the existing code. He said he was aware of two others that
developers were assembling for eventual submission, one of which had already been reviewed at two
DRG meetings. Councilmembers agreed on the need to proceed without delay to develop the new PUD
code and noted that if a moratorium were established it could be terminated as soon as the code was
ready, which could be sooner than six months. Mr. Walters emphasized that the proposed moratorium
was not in response to any particular project.
Mayor Gere invited members of the audience to comment on this agenda item.
Patrick O'Hearn, 11039 Post Drive, spoke in support of the moratorium. He said a six-month moratorium
and revised code would provide developers with more certainty and very little inconvenience.
Allen Schroeder, 4819 Portalis Way, said he was working on an 8-lot PUD and was preparing to submit it
following two DRG meetings already held. Mr. Schroeder estimated he would be able to complete and
Anacortes City Council Minutes June 6, 2016 7
submit the application in a couple of weeks. He noted that time is money and said a little bit of grace
period to get an application in would be appreciated.
Bert Clay, 4927 Portalis Way, expressed concern about short notice and said he just found out about the
proposed moratorium the prior Friday. He clarified with Mr. Measamer that amendments to existing PUDs
would not be subject to the moratorium. Mr. Clay questioned targeting PUDs specifically when many
aspects of the development code needed revision. He also described real estate market cycles and said
a moratorium of up to a year could push new PUD projects out beyond the growth market and stymie the
expansion of the housing supply in the community.
No one else present wished to address the Council.
Councilmembers discussed with Ms. Swetnam various options for slightly delaying the start of the
moratorium. Mr. Johnson and Mayor Gere noted the need to provide adequate notification to the
community of such changes.
Mr. O'Hearn returned to the microphone and noted that every PUD application that was accepted before
the moratorium went into effect was one more PUD that would be processed under the problematic old
code.
Mr. Schroeder returned to the microphone and said he needed just a little more time to submit his
complete application. He said he would prefer clear guidelines under new code but that his PUD would be
beneficial to the community and would be worth considering before the moratorium went into effect.
Mr. Adams moved, seconded by Mr. Johnson, to adopt Ordinance 2980 establishing a moratorium on the
receipt and processing of Planned Unit Development applications effective 30 days after approval. Vote:
Ayes -Adams and Johnson. Nays - Walters, Pickett, Lovelett and Archibald. Motion failed.
Mr.Walters moved, seconded by Ms. Pickett, to approve Ordinance 2980 establishing a moratorium on
the receipt and processing of Planned Unit Development applications as presented.
Mr. Adams moved, seconded by Ms. Lovelett, to amend the motion to establish the
moratorium effective two weeks from approval. Vote: Ayes- Adams, Lovelett, Archibald,
Johnson and Pickett. Nays - Walters. Motion carried.
Vote on amended motion: Ayes- Lovelett, Archibald, Johnson, Walters, Pickett and Adams. Motion
carried.
There being no further business, at approximately 10:00 p.m. the Anacortes City Council meeting of
June 6, 2016 was adjourned.
