Klickitat County Final Determination of Non-Significance Notice is hereby given that Klickitat County issued a Final Determination of Non-significance (Final DNS) on March 30, 2018 under SEPA Rules (Chapter 197-11 WAC) and the Klickitat County Environmental Ordinance Number 121084, as amended, for the following proposal: SEP2017-29. Proponent: Klickitat County Planning Department. The proposal is to amend the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) section of the County regulation (Section 3.10 of the Klickitat County Zoning Ordinance No. 62678, as amended and Klickitat County Code Title 19.54.110). This is a non- project action that does not propose or authorize any specific projects or activities. The proposed amendments are intended to provide clarity and reflect lessons learned during the implementation of the ordinance since 2012. Additionally, the amendment would expand the ADU provision to all lands in the unincorporated Klickitat County where single family residence is listed as a permitted use. Klickitat County has determined that the above described proposal, conducted in conformance with the applicable Klickitat County Codes and Ordinances, would not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment, and an environmental impact statement is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the Klickitat County Planning Department. This final determination is issued pursuant WAC 197-11-340(2)(f). Klickitat County has considered comments on its preliminary Determination of Non-significance. There is no additional comment period. Any appeals of this decision must be filed under the County SEPA ordinance’s provision for appeals of a final DNS. Any appeal is therefore due no later than fifteen days from the date of final DNS issuance. Any appeal of this determination on the basis of noncompliance with the provisions of RCW 43.21C must be submitted in writing by 5:00 PM, Friday, April 20, 2018. Appeals shall be in writing and filed with the County Auditor. Appeals shall state with specificity the basis for the appeal and the errors to be asserted to the Board. Appeals shall not be deemed complete without payment of the applicable appeal fee (this is a Class C project), payable to the Klickitat County Planning Department.
