Amendment RZC 21.08.070 RIN (Residential Innovative) Single-Family Urban Residential A. Purpose. The RIN Single-Family Urban Residential zone is intended to promote single-family housing consisting of smaller dwelling units to respond to changing household sizes and ages. It will provide opportunities for households of various sizes, ages, and incomes to live in a neighborhood by promoting diversity in the size, type, and price of new single-family homes. Also, this zone will blend new development with existing residential development to help maintain neighborhood character, particularly in neighborhoods with a predominance of small to moderately sized homes. The zone will help to provide appealing and active streetscapes that promote a more walkable and enjoyable neighborhood experience. The density allowed within the zone shall be four to five dwelling units per gross acre depending on the size of the site and the size of dwellings proposed. B. Regulations Common to All Uses.

Rationale The definition of Elevation as currently defined by the Redmond Zoning Code state, “The architectural view of the front, side, or back surface of a structure to include doors, windows, and rooftop screening that is an extension of the façade, but excluding any roof area and rooftop equipment or structures.” The design standards citation and definition acknowledges that the intent of the code is to ensure there is visual interest and variation along the street frontage of newly planned developments. Due to natural topography, there are conditions where a 10% height difference measured at average finish grade results in a lack of visual variation or interest. Measuring from the lowest street facing elevation of a home’s living space (or street facing garage) will ensure that whether a site is level or has shifts in the topography, the homes have a visual variation from the street frontage and therefore meet the intent of the code. Amendment 21.08.180 Residential Development and Architectural, Site, and Landscape Design Regulations C. Variety and Visual Interest in Building and Site Design. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to: a. Promote building and site design that is consistent with the neighborhood character of each of the City’s residential neighborhoods; and b. Provide variety and visual interest by using various combinations of building elements, features and treatments and variation in site design elements while remaining consistent with neighborhood character. 2. Design Criteria. a. Variety in Building Design. i. The same combination of building elements, features and treatments shall not be repeated for more than 20 percent of the total dwelling units in any new residential development. Dwelling units with the same combination of features and treatments shall not be located side by side with each other or directly across a street from each other. ii. Dwelling units in developments of five or more lots may have the same combination of features as long as the details are varied to achieve visual interest. Dwelling units in developments of less than five lots shall not repeat the same combination of primary and ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 9 of 124 secondary features. The development of a new dwelling unit on a single lot shall not repeat the same design of an existing home that is located side by side with it or directly across a street from it. iii. In making the determinations required in subsections C.2.i and C.2.ii, of this section, architecture within new residential developments will be evaluated by the Administrator as a combination of at least three primary features and at least three secondary features per dwelling unit. The primary features may include: A. Variation in structure height by a minimum of at least 10 percent; 1. For the purposes of this section, building height shall be measured from the main ground floor living space elevation that is street facing or a street facing garage elevation, whichever is lower to the height roof elevation point visible from the street, as depicted in Figure B. Varying roof pitch, shape, and orientation between adjacent structures; C. Variation in structure width of greater than five feet; D. Variation in dwelling unit type or size by a minimum of at least 10 percent; E. Variation in garage orientation front, side, alley, detached); Figure # Measuring Building Height (Insert new figure) ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 10 of 124 2. Secondary features may include: A. Variation in setbacks from the street of greater than four feet; B. Entry enhancement and differentiation; C. Variation in building materials, colors, and detailing; D. Façade articulation and modulation; E. Visible window trim and mullions iv. Other secondary building elements, treatments, features, or site designs which meet or exceed the intent of this section may be approved by the Administrator. Figure 21.08.180A Variety in Building and Site Design C. 2. b. Variety in Site Design. Variation in site design shall be achieved through the use of various site planning methods and techniques. Examples of techniques to provide variety in site design include, but are not limited to: i. Variation in lot sizes or orientation; ii. Variation in type of driveway (shared or not shared); iii. Alleys (See Figure 21.08.180B below.); ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 11 of 124 iv. Variation in landscape design; and Other similar site design features which achieve variety and visual interest and meet or exceed the intent of this section may be approved by the Administrator.

Rationale RZC 21.08.180 states: The purpose of this section is to establish residential design standards for all areas of the City that: a) Provide variety and visual interest in new residential development in a manner that is compatible with the neighborhood character; b) Create engaging and active streetscapes through design and vegetation that brings living space toward the street; c) Ensure that dwelling units are of a scale that is proportional to their lot size and location; d) Design home that feature living space as the dominant feature of the street elevation; Subsection D.2.B.ii further states, “The front street elevation of a side-loaded garage shall have a minimum of one opening window or door)” clarifying that the front elevation of the home begins at the surface wall facing the street that is comprised of elements such as windows and doors and not architectural design elements such as eaves, porches, or front stoops. The definition of Elevation as currently defined by the Redmond Zoning Code state, “The architectural view of the front, side, or back surface of a structure to include doors, windows, and rooftop screening that is an extension of the façade, but excluding any roof area and rooftop equipment or structures.” This portion of the Code and definition acknowledges both that the intent of the code is to ensure the living space front elevation is the dominant feature of the street frontage of the home and that the front elevation shall only be measured from the wall façade of the home and not projecting architectural elements. Amendment 21.08.180.D.2.b Building Orientation D. Building Orientation. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to: a. Provide active streetscapes that promote a more walkable and enjoyable neighborhood experience for residents; b. Incorporate features into dwelling, site, and streetscape design that bring the primary living area of the dwelling toward the street; and c. Except for properties located on arterials, ensure that garages are not the dominant feature as viewed from the street. (See Figure 21.08.180C below.) 2. Design Criteria. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 13 of 124 a. Setbacks on Arterials. With the exception of the North Redmond Neighborhood, for structures located on properties facing an arterial, main living areas may be located toward the rear of the property for noise attenuation, as approved by the Administrator. Minimum setbacks shall be as provided in the zone use chart for the residential zone in which the property is located. In the North Redmond Neighborhood only, the following arterial setback requirements apply in lieu of the setbacks provided in the zone use chart for the residential zone in which the property is located: i. Landscape buffers shall be required along Redmond-Woodinville Road, NE 124th/128th Streets, and NE 116th Street to reduce both the visual and noise impacts of traffic on residential development and to enhance the parkway and green, vegetated qualities of the Redmond-Woodinville Road. Buffers shall blend with the natural surroundings by use of berms, terraces, trees, and plant material, and shall be designed with minimal maintenance requirements. ii. All buildings on the east side of Redmond-Woodinville Road (SR 202) shall be set back a minimum of 75 feet. This setback shall be measured from the edge of the proposed right-of- way. Accessory structures, including fences, are prohibited in this setback. iii. All residential buildings and accessory structures greater than 30 inches above the grade, on the west side of Redmond-Woodinville Road (SR 202), within the Wedge subarea, shall be set back a minimum of 35 feet. The following conditions also apply: A. This setback shall be measured from the edge of the proposed right-of-way. B. Multistory vegetation that is canopy-forming at maturity shall be provided and maintained within the setback, at a depth no less than 15 feet measured east to west adjacent to the western edge of the Redmond-Woodinville Road right-of-way. C. The multistory vegetation shall be preserved within a tract. The location, purpose and limitation of this tract shall be designated on the face of the plat, binding site plan or similar recording drawing in a format provided by the City Attorney. D. The multistory vegetation shall meet the requirements of RZC 21.32.080, Types of Planting, Type II – Visual Screen, and RZC 21.08.180.F.2.vii, Vegetation for the North Redmond Wedge Subarea Common Areas. E. The Administrator may approve alternative methods that meet the intent of this section and provide for privacy and screening when site conditions such as critical areas indicate a need for flexibility. iv. Other Road Setbacks. Buildings shall be set back a minimum of 15 percent of the depth of a parcel before subdivision along the north side of NE 116th Street and the south side of NE 124th/128th Street. Setbacks may be reduced if the setback area is landscaped and established as a permanent open space corridor, but buildings are not located closer than 50 feet from the edge of the proposed right-of-way. Setbacks may be further reduced (but no less than required in the zone summary for the residential zoning district in which the property is located) for development on parcels two acres or less in size. Accessory structures are prohibited in this ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 14 of 124 setback with the exception of non-sight-obscuring fences (such as post and rail) and improvements less than 30 inches in height (such as patios). These improvements shall be allowed up to 25 feet into the setback. Trail systems that provide for pedestrian access shall also be allowed in the setback. The minimum setback for all structures that are 30 inches above the grade and adjacent to 172nd Avenue NE shall be 20 feet. b. Garage Placement. Except for properties located on arterials, new dwelling units with attached garages facing the front street shall be designed so that the garage is not the dominant feature as viewed from the street. Design techniques which meet the intent of this section may include, but are not limited to: i. Setting the garage back a minimum of five feet from the front street elevation of the dwelling; A. The front elevation of the first floor living space is equal or lesser distance to the front property line from the garage door and has a covered front exterior entry way that is a minimum of five feet proud of the garage door; or B. The front elevation of the first floor living space is five feet or greater distance forward (closer to the front property line) from the front elevation of the garage door; or C. The front elevation of the second story of a proposed home is projected over the front elevation of the garage door by no less than five feet and is at minimum the width of the garage door and the front elevation of the first floor living space is equal or lesser distance to the front property line from the garage door. 1. For the purposes of this section, the front street elevation may be measured from the forward most column of a covered porch when the surface wall of the ground floor living space is recessed no more than four feet from the garage, and a second story projection of a least five feet is provided above the garage. ii. Recessing a garage under a second story, projecting roofline, or balcony a minimum of five feet. The front street elevation of a side-loaded garage shall have a minimum of one opening window or door). c. Garage Doors. On new dwelling units, garage doors facing the front street shall include windows, multiple garage doors (for example, one door per parking stall) or other architectural treatments that reduce the mass of the garage door surfaces and meet the intent of this section. d. Transition Areas. In the Education Hill, Grass Lawn, Idylwood, North Redmond, and Willows/Rose Hill neighborhoods, a minimum 80-square-foot area must be provided in the front yard that is oriented toward the front street and includes a porch (minimum dimension eight feet on all sides), patio, deck, garden with entry, walkway with arbor, or other feature(s) that meets ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 15 of 124 the intent of this section. The transition area may consist of a combination of landscape and structural elements. e. Alleys. There shall be a minimum four-foot yard setback for garages that are accessible from an alley. For the purpose of providing visual appeal and interest, when an alley is adjacent to a rear yard, yard landscaping shall extend to the edge of the alley or a landscape strip between the alley and the fence shall be provided. f. Other Methods. The Administrator may approve other methods of building orientation that meet the purposes of this section.

Rationale The RIN zone is basically an R-4 “plus” zone when the lot size exceeds 30,500 square feet. Therefore, it should be regulated similarly to the R-4 through R-6 zones. Amendment 21.08.260 Attached Dwelling Units A. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to: 1. Enhance opportunities for ownership housing; 2. Reduce development costs related to construction and the provision of utilities, which in turn may help to reduce housing prices in support of affordability goals; 3. More effectively set aside critical areas and natural resources as open space than would otherwise be allowed through the subdivision process; and 4. Achieve the planned density for a site that may not otherwise be met due to environmental and other physical constraints. B. Applicability. 1. Generally. Unless otherwise specified in subsections B.2 and B.3 of this section, attached dwelling units are allowed through a conditional use permit process in zones R-4 through R-6. Attached dwelling units are allowed outright in zones R-8 through R-30, unless otherwise provided in subsections B.2 and B.3. 2. Willows/Rose Hill Neighborhood. a. Two-unit attached dwelling units are an allowed use on individual lots in Single-Family Urban zones in the Willows/Rose Hill Neighborhood, provided that a minimum of 70 percent of the total dwelling units within the single-family portion of each residential subarea of the Willows/Rose Hill Neighborhood shall remain detached single-family dwellings. b. Three-unit attached dwelling units and four-unit attached dwelling units may be allowed as part of a preliminary plat application in Single-Family Urban zones only as part of the demonstration project provided for in Policy N-WR-E-4 of the Redmond Comprehensive Plan to evaluate compatibility with the Willows/Rose Hill Neighborhood. 3.

Two-unit attached dwelling units are an allowed use on individual lots in Single-Family Urban zones. b. Three-unit attached dwelling units and four-unit attached dwelling units are allowed on individual lots in Single-Family Urban zones, with public notification and at least one neighborhood meeting required. The public notification and neighborhood meeting are not required in R-8 zones. c. Attached dwelling units are not an allowed use in the North Redmond Wedge Subarea. C. Requirements. Attached dwelling units are subject to all of the land use, density, site requirements, and development standards of the underlying zone with the following exceptions: 1. Minimum Lot Size. The minimum lot size for attached dwelling units in R-4, R-5, and R-6, and RIN zones shall be based on a percentage of the average lot size of the underlying zone as presented in the zone use chart for the residential zone. (See RZC 21.08.020 through 21.08.140.) a. The minimum lot size for a two-unit attached dwelling unit is equal to 150 percent of the average lot size for the underlying zone. b. The minimum lot size for a three-unit attached dwelling unit is equal to 200 percent of the average lot size for the underlying zone. c. The minimum lot size for a four-unit attached dwelling unit is equal to 250 percent of the average lot size for the underlying zone. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 22 of 124 RZC Article I 21.10 Downtown Regulations Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed A correction to a cross-reference is necessary. Rationale In table RZC 21.10.060B – Regulations Common to All Uses, Maximum Building Height without TDRs or GBP, the cross-reference to RZC 21.62.020.C is incorrect and should be updated to reference RZC 21.62.020.G.2.c instead. Amendment 21.10.060 Bear Creek (BC), Valley View (VV), and Trestle (TR) Zones A. Purpose. The convenience commercial areas of Downtown include the Valley View, Trestle, and Bear Creek zones. These three zones are located at the major entrances to the Downtown to serve shoppers conveniently from both within and outside the neighborhood. These zones are intended to provide for everyday, basic shopping needs and services, such as groceries, pharmacies, and other convenience retail goods and services that are easily accessed by pedestrians, bicyclists, and motor vehicles. Land uses and redevelopment in the area should be compatible with shopping and service needs of the community and surroundings, as well as with the long-term Downtown vision of encouraging a more pedestrian-supportive, mixed-use environment in these zones.

The maximum height may be increased to four stories when the site’s development plan can demonstrate the goals and objectives outlined in Comprehensive Plan Policy DT-37, and the design guidelines outlined in RZC 21.62.020.G.2.cC are met through the site plan entitlement process. Maximum Building Height with TDRs or GBP 3 Stories A. One floor of additional height may be achieved with the use of Transfer Development Rights. See RZC 21.10.160, Using Transfer Development Rights (TDRs), or through compliance with RZC 21.67, Green Building and Green Infrastructure Incentive Program (GBP). Maximum Height Within Shorelines (SMP) 35 feet A. This height limit is restricted to that portion of the building physically located within the Shoreline Jurisdiction. (SMP) B. The maximum height of structures, including bridges, that support a regional light rail transit system may be higher than 35 feet but shall be no higher than is reasonably necessary to address the engineering, operational, environmental, and regulatory issues at the location of the structure. (SMP) Maximum Lot Coverage 80 percent A. For residential development without ground floor commercial/office, lot coverage shall be governed by the Downtown Residential Densities Chart. B. Lot coverage percentage equals: The total site area measured to the property line, less pedestrian systems measured to the curb line, on-site sidewalks, landscaping, and plazas, divided by the site area measured to the curb line. Base FAR Without TDRs 1.25 A. Maximum FAR without TDRs or GBP for nonresidential space is 1.25. Residential space within a mixed-use building is exempt from TDR or GBP requirements. See RZC 21.10.160, Using Transfer of Development Rights (TDRs), and RZC 21.67, Green Building and Green Infrastructure Incentive Program (GBP). B. All legal lots are entitled to 10,000 square feet GFA without the use of TDRs or GBP, provided that other site requirements can be met. Allowed Residential Density Depends on Lot Size A.

Rationale Street names in the Overlake Village and references thereto should be consistent with adopted street naming conversion. Ordinance Amendment RZC 21.12 Overlake Regulations 21.12.010 Overlake Village Purpose The purposes of the Overlake Village regulations are to: A. Implement the vision and policies for Overlake Village zones set forth in the Redmond Comprehensive Plan; B. Encourage a broad mix of multifamily residential and commercial uses and amenities in order to achieve a vibrant, engaging environment and a true urban center; C. Provide for pedestrian-friendly and activating commercial uses on the ground floor of development located along arterials, while allowing residential uses on the ground floor of development along local streets; D. Include housing in all future development; E. Promote compact, walkable development forms that are conducive to transit use; F. Provide improved connections for nonmotorized and local vehicular travel; G. Encourage use of environmentally sustainable site design and building features; H. Encourage inclusion of retail, restaurants, professional offices, services, and entertainment uses to meet needs of residents and employees, enliven the area after working hours, and contribute to a sense of place; and I. Allow additional building height and density where appropriate through an incentive program to facilitate provision of public and private infrastructure, green buildings, affordable housing, tree retention, and open space, while still achieving sustainable, transit-supportive densities. Effective on: 4/28/2012 21.12.020 OV Master Planning A. Master Plans are required in Overlake Village for all developments encompassing at least three acres and optional for sites under three acres. When a Master Plan has been approved by the City, site requirements and other development standards and regulations shall be administered on the basis of the ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 25 of 124 area controlled by the approved Master Plan ("Plan Area"), rather than on a site-by-site basis, provided the approved Master Plan demonstrates the ability to comply with the requirement in question. For example, in the case of a development application for a site that is part of an area controlled by an approved master plan, if the plan designates the maximum lot coverage of structures and such areas are sufficient to meet maximum lot coverage requirements applied to the entire Plan Area, then an individual site plan need not demonstrate compliance with maximum lot coverage requirements. B. Developments completing a Master Plan may increase the height of 50 percent of the buildings in the development by one floor. Effective on: 4/16/2011 21.12.030 OV Subarea Map A.

Purpose. Zone 4 provides for redevelopment of a unique 28-acre, sloped site located at the core of the Overlake Village. This site is intended to provide a compact, mixed-use development with substantial residential development, as well as employment, retail and services, which are integrated with a major urban neighborhood public park that provides a central gathering place through plazas and green spaces. The substantial residential component is intended to achieve a site that is active during the day and during the evening, supports retail and other commercial space that is developed on the site, and supports the site as a transit-oriented place. For that reason, a 50 percent minimum residential floor area requirement is established. With its central location and proximity to major employers, the site is well- suited for pedestrian- and transit-supportive development.

Height Tradeoff. The maximum building height on a site may be exceeded when building height reductions are required at building edges, along a street or park, to achieve better design and stepped building height through the land use permit process. The amount of floor area that is allowed to exceed the prescribed maximum building height (without use of bonuses or transfer of development rights) shall not exceed the floor area that was removed or omitted to create the stepped building facade and shall not exceed one additional floor above the prescribed maximum building height. B. In areas where an adjacent public or private street will be more than one story above the ground floor elevation of a building because of topography (such as the southwest corner of NE 90th Street and Redmond-Woodinville Road), building height may be measured from the grade of the higher public or private street, instead of from average finished grade of the building. Building height as measured from the grade of the public or private street shall not exceed maximum building height (including bonuses, if any), and the entire site shall comply with applicable FAR limits. See Figure 21.12.100, OV Building Height, below. Figure 21.12.100 OV Building Height C. To achieve an appropriate transition between major public streets and development interior to Zone 4, maximum building height within 50 feet of the rights-of-way of 152nd Avenue NE and 156th Avenue NE shall be six stories measured from the closest edge of the property to the right-of-way.

B. Alternative parking standards may be specified in a City-approved Master Plan or site plan when a change is supported by the Overlake Parking Management Plan, a City review of parking in one or more Overlake zones, or a property owner-initiated parking analysis. C. Curbside parking on public streets within a development site may count toward up to 25 percent of the required off-street parking. When all or part of the street right-of-way is dedicated by the development site property owner or a predecessor in title, curbside parking shall be fully counted toward satisfaction of the off-street parking requirement. Curbside parking on 152nd Avenue NE or 156th Avenue NE shall not be counted toward off-street parking. Curbside parking on private streets that are part of the development site shall be fully counted toward satisfaction of the required off-street parking requirement. (Ord. 2642) Effective on: 4/16/2011 21.12.120 OV Residential Usable Open Space A. General Requirement. The minimum residential usable open space requirement establishes the minimum percentage of a development that must be set aside to provide usable open space for residents. Every development that includes residences shall provide usable open space in an amount equal to or greater than 6.25 percent of the gross residential floor area. B. Alternatives for configuration of the total amount of usable open space. 1. Common open space is open space that is open to all residents. It includes landscaped courtyards or decks, gardens with pathways, children’s play areas, and other multipurpose recreational or green spaces. Except for rooftop open space, it may be used to meet 100 percent of the usable open space requirement. 2. Common open space shall be large enough to provide functional leisure or recreational activity as determined by the Technical Committee. The average minimum dimension shall be 20 feet, with no dimension less than 12 feet. 3. Private open space is open space that is not open to all residents. It includes balconies, patios, and other multi-purpose recreational or green spaces. It may be used to meet up to 50 percent of the usable open space requirement. Private open spaces shall be at least 50 square feet, with no dimension less than five feet. 4. Rooftop open space may be used to meet up to 50 percent of the usable open space requirement, except for rooftop open space described in subsection below. 5. In some circumstances, a rooftop may be accessible from street grade because of significant slopes on a site. In such instances, rooftop open space built at street grade and open to the general public may be used to meet 100 percent of the usable open space requirement. C. Combining Usable Open Space and Pedestrian Access. Parking areas, driveways, and pedestrian access other than pedestrian access required by Washington State Rules and Regulations for Barrier-Free Design shall not be counted as usable open space, except any pedestrian path or walkway traversing through the open space if the total width of the common usable open space is 18 feet or wider.

General Requirement. All setbacks, buffers, open spaces, pervious surfaces, plazas, parks, site and building entrances, pedestrian walkways, service areas, and parking lots shall be landscaped with plant materials. Existing vegetation may be maintained and applied toward this standard if the existing vegetation meets the landscaping requirements of this section, is healthy, and is likely to survive development. The requirements specified in RZC 21.32, Landscaping, shall apply except to the extent that they conflict with landscaping practices appropriate to an urban center. In addition, supplemental landscaping requirements for Overlake Village are defined below. B. Plantings Along Streets. At a minimum, planting strips along streets shall include street trees per the City’s standards for type and species. Where space allows, planting areas should include other vegetation suitable for an urban setting. Tree planting pits on streets that include Furniture Zones per RZC 21.12.150, OV Street Cross Sections, shall be covered with cast-iron tree grates of a type that meets ADA requirements. C. Open Space and Plazas. 1. Plazas and common usable open spaces shall be landscaped to create visual interest by providing a variety of colors, heights, and forms of foliage; soften building edges; and reduce the impact of elements such as noise or wind. 2. The quantity of trees, shrubs, and other plant materials shall be designed to meet the size and function of the plaza or open space. D. Zone 5 Buffers. 1. Properties in Zone 5 shall provide a landscape buffer at least 20 feet in width along street frontages where any portion of the street bordering the development site borders a residential zone within a neighboring jurisdiction. 2. The buffers shall be planted with the following materials: a. Minimum of one tree per 200 square feet of buffer area. No more than 40 percent of trees may be deciduous. b. Evergreen shrubs, a minimum of five gallon in size. The area covered by the shrubs shall equal at least one-third of the buffer frontage. c. Groundcover plantings to cover the ground within three years. d. Plant materials shall be drought tolerant and at least 50 percent native species by area. e. Trees and other plant materials required by this section shall be located so that they effectively buffer the development from bordering residential properties. The buffer need not completely obscure the development; rather it should screen it. 3. Up to 20 percent of the buffer area may be used for streets, driveways, utility crossings, trails, or ground level features such as patios. Other structures may not be placed in required buffers. 4. Buffers may be counted towards required open space, required pervious surfaces, setbacks, and other requirements in the Use and Bulk Regulations that they meet. 5. Buffers may include landscaped on-site stormwater management BMPs such as bioretention or rain gardens.

Purpose. The purpose of this section is to provide for the transition of properties consistent with the adopted vision and plan for Overlake Village as a multistory mixed-use/residential urban neighborhood. This section is intended to ensure fairness to existing uses and property owners while also recognizing that the eventual redevelopment of these properties is consistent with and carries out the City’s adopted goals, policies, and plans. B. Transitional uses indicated in the Use and Bulk Regulation Tables in RZC 21.12.040 (OV Zone 21.12.050 (OV Zone 21.12.060 (OV Zone and 21.12.080 (OV Zone 5) shall: 1. Only be located within the building footprint existing on any property as of December 11, 2007; 2. Not exceed 25,000 square feet gross floor area; and 3. Together with other transitional uses on the property, not comprise more than 70 percent of the total floor area for the buildings existing on the property under the ownership of record as of December 11, 2007. C. The desirability of allowing transitional uses to continue shall be reviewed prior to December 12, 2012, and every five years after that, at a minimum, in order to determine whether allowing such uses to continue is compatible with the vision for Overlake. Unless City Council amends these regulations to prohibit transitional uses as the result of the review, the uses shall continue for an additional five years. If City Council amends these regulations to prohibit the transitional uses, all such uses with a Redmond business license located in Overlake Village zone at the time of the amendment shall become legal nonconforming uses. A transitional use located within Overlake Village zone that becomes a legal nonconforming use shall be allowed to expand consistent with the conditions outlined in above. If a legal nonconforming use vacates the premises in which it is located, the use may be replaced by any other transitional use that was allowed by the code as adopted on December 11, 2007.

Five items were removed from the table. Incentives in that table were also referenced in 21.13.020.H. However, 21.13.020.H was not updated with ord. 2858, resulting in an inconsistency in the code between what’s offered in 21.32.060 and what is offered in 21.13.020.H. Rationale LID-related code amendments adopted on 12/6/16 (Ordinance 2858) removed five items from Table 21.32.060 Ecological Score Requirements. The City’s NPDES permit required adoption of new code provisions intended to make LID the “preferred and commonly used approach to site development.” Section 21.13.020 Northeast Design District of the Southeast Redmond Regulations was adopted on 10/21/2014 (Ordinance 2753(AM)) establishing a supplementary incentive program. The supplementary program should also reflect ecological score incentives that are consistent with 21.32.060 Ecological Score Requirements. Amendment 21.13.020 Northeast Design District A. Purpose. The purpose of the Northeast Design District is to create a transition from single-family residential areas in the south to industrial areas in the north and to provide opportunities for businesses that require larger footprints. The purpose is also to establish and maintain a transition from the urban development within the district to the rural areas east of the city limits. This will be accomplished by careful siting of buildings, vegetated buffers and park spaces, campus-like settings, and master planning. The performance zoning regulations in this chapter grant significant flexibility in terms of allowed uses while establishing district-specific design standards. Standards in this chapter emphasize transition from lower- to higher-intensity uses, creating neighborhood character and a sense of place through site and building design, and connecting this area to parks and regional trails located to the east. The Northeast Design District comprises three performance areas called NDD1, NDD2, and NDD3. B. Maximum Development Yield.

The purpose of this section is to establish design criteria for properties in the Northeast Design District that will guide development to be attractive in appearance and functionally integrated, and to promote a transition from less intense to more intense uses moving from south to north. 2. Development Along East Edge of Design District. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 69 of 124 3. a. Intent. The east edge of the Design District is also the east edge of the city and/or the urban growth area. It is where urban gives way to rural. Development in this area should emphasize that transition through site and building design. b. Design criteria. i. Common open spaces shall be oriented toward the city limit in order to provide views and opportunities to enjoy the rural area. ii. No more than 50% of the city limit line, within a distance of 50 feet from the city limit line, shall be fronted with a building so as not to create a wall of buildings along the city limit line. iii. No building shall be taller than two stories within 30 feet of the city limit. 3. Development Along North Edge of Woodbridge. a. Intent. The north section of Woodbridge is a single-family area and development immediately to the north of Woodbridge should create a gradual transition to more intense uses. b. Design criteria. i. No building shall be taller than two stories within 100 feet of the north edge of Woodbridge. 4. Transition from Less Intensive to More Intensive Uses. 5. a. Intent. The Northeast Design District is intended to facilitate a transition from less intensive to more intensive uses moving from south to north. Development in both NDD1 and NDD2 should avoid direct lines of sight between NDD1 and NDD2. b. Design criteria. i. Structures shall be designed to minimize views from NDD1 into NDD2 and instead orient views from NDD1 to the rural area, parks, areas internal to NDD1, or to other residential areas to the south. ii. Landscaping shall be designed and located to minimize views between NDD1 and NDD2, with Type l plantings used to screen industrial or commercial uses within 1,000 feet of NDD1. Landscaping shall be tiered and multistoried and shall have the effect of creating a visual buffer between NDD1 and NDD2. iii. Internal circulation shall be designed to minimize views between NDD1 and NDD2. For example, avoid long, straight sections of roadway. iv. In areas of NDD2 that are within 1,000 feet of NDD1, internal vehicle circulation systems shall be screened with Type I plantings that are at least five feet wide. 5. Create a Sense of Place and Neighborhood Character. 6. a. Intent. Development in the Northeast Design District should create a sense of place and neighborhood character so that it is attractive to people who live or work there. b. Design Criteria. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 70 of 124 i. Developments shall primarily rely on pedestrian-scale lighting in areas of pedestrian circulation. ii. Developments shall incorporate benches along internal circulation paths. iii. Residential and nonresidential developments that provide common open space or pocket parks shall design such spaces to be attractive for recreation for people of all ages. H. Incentive Program.

Rationale Ordinance 2679 (Adopted 2/5/2013) updated Map 10.3 Downtown Pedestrian System of RZC 21.10.150, but the corresponding table of 21.10.150.C was not updated to reflect the changes made in Map 10.3.; and Ordinance 2803 (Adopted 10/6/2015) updated RZC 21.1.0.150 to change “Front Yard” to “Setback Zone” and “Street” to “Roadway” to be consistent with the Transportation Master Plan, Pedestrian Chapter, p 83; however, 21.10.150.B and Figure 21.10.150A were not updated. Therefore, revise RZC 21.10.150.C figures and table to properly reflect Ordinances 2679 and 2803. Amendment RZC 21.10.150 Pedestrian System A. Purpose. The purpose of the Downtown pedestrian system is to: 1. Provide safe pedestrian routes removed from traffic; 2. Enhance the appearance of buildings and their settings; 3. Provide a unified design element to complement varying architectural styles; 4. Soften the appearance of parking lots and service storage areas; and 5. Provide for the planting of street trees and other vegetation appropriate for an urban setting. B. Installation of Pedestrian System. The various components of the pedestrian system are shown on Map 10.3, Downtown Pedestrian System; the tables and graphics included in RZC 21.10.150.C, Pedestrian System Description; Map 10.4, Town Center Pedestrian System; and the table in RZC 21.10.150.O, Downtown Streets Cross Sections, all of which are incorporated as a part of this section. As property is developed or redeveloped, corresponding portions of the systems shall be installed or otherwise provided for by the property owner/developer. The setback zone front yard distance specifies the minimum distance front yard setback measured from the back of sidewalk. Where the setback zone front yard distance is specified as zero feet, the building shall be built to the back of the sidewalk. The mid-block segments shown on the map represent desired connections between blocks. In order to provide flexibility, the actual alignment shall be determined through the site plan land use permit process. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 90 of 124 Map 10.3 Downtown Pedestrian System Note: Online users may click the map for a full-size version in PDF format.

The following language was included in RZC 21.30 in the event the amendment was not passed: 21.20.030.J: Multifamily properties providing affordable housing may be eligible for property tax exemption as established in RMC Chapter 3.38. to the extent the same is adopted by the City Council Rationale Because the Marymoor Subarea Plan was adopted by the City Council on 6/6/2017 (Ordinance 2883), this code section should be amended to reflect the City’s Council’s action. Amendment 21.20.030 General Requirements and Incentives A. Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.540, the City finds that the higher income levels specified in the definition of “affordable housing” set forth in the definitions section of this Zoning Code are necessary to address local housing market conditions in the City. The income levels specified in the definitions section of this Zoning Code shall therefore be used in lieu of the “low-income household” income levels set forth in RCW 36.70A.540. B. Certain provisions in this section such as affordability levels and bonuses may not apply or may be superseded as otherwise specified in RZC 21.20, Affordable Housing or RMC Chapter 3.38 Multifamily Housing Property Tax Exemption to the extent the same is adopted by the City Council. C. At least 10 percent of the units in new housing developments in those areas specified in RZC 21.20.020, Applicability, of 10 units or greater must be affordable housing units. D. At least one bonus market-rate unit is permitted for each affordable housing unit provided, up to 15 percent above the maximum allowed density. For example, if the maximum allowed density for the site is 20 units per acre, the density bonus shall not exceed three units per acre, yielding a total allowed density, with bonus, of 23 units per acre, or 20 units + 15 percent bonus = 23 units. In areas where density limitation is expressed as a Floor Area Ratio (FAR), density bonuses will be calculated as an equivalent FAR bonus. E. Each low-cost affordable housing unit provided counts as two affordable housing units for the purpose of satisfying the affordable unit requirement under subsection RZC 21.20.030.B of this section. For purposes of computing bonus market-rate units under subsection RZC 21.20.030.D of this section, two bonus market-rate units are permitted for each low-cost affordable housing unit provided, up to 20 percent above the maximum density permitted on the site. F. The number of required affordable housing units is determined by rounding fractional numbers up to the nearest whole number from 0.5. In single-family zones, the required number of affordable housing units shall be calculated as a minimum of 10 percent of the greater of: proposed dwelling units on ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 94 of 124 the site, excluding cottage housing density bonus or other bonuses, or net buildable area multiplied by the site’s allowed density. G. The affordable housing units and, if applicable, any bonus market-rate units shall not be included in the total number of the housing units when determining the number of required affordable housing units. H. If additional density is achieved as a result of a rezone per Comprehensive Plan policy HO-38, the determination of whether market-rate bonus units shall be permitted and the number of bonus units permitted will be determined on a site-specific basis. The number of bonus units, if any, shall be established in the ordinance adopting the rezone. Considerations for whether bonus units will be permitted include but are not limited to the following: the number of total units as a result of the rezone and the capacity of the site for development, taking into account the potential for adverse impacts such as to traffic, parking, or environmental issues. I. Depending on the level of affordability provided, the affordable housing units may be eligible for the impact fee waivers described in RMC 3.10.070. J. Multifamily properties providing affordable housing may be eligible for property tax exemption as established in RMC Chapter 3.38 to the extent the same is adopted by the City Council. K. Measurement in square feet of floor area of all affordable units shall be defined by the gross leasable area within the unit. L. Cottages, duplexes, and size-limited dwellings may be used to meet the requirements of this section. M. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) shall not be used to meet the requirements of this section. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 95 of 124 RZC Article II 21.52 Transportation Standards Staff Contact Andrew Bauer Correction Needed Clarification is necessary to describe that a Transportation Management Program (TMP) may apply in instances of a development seeking a parking reduction. Rationale A cross-reference to the parking reduction standards from the TMP applicability standards in RZC 21.52.020.A provides the necessary clarification. Otherwise, the code is unclear in this regard. Amendment 21.52.020 Transportation Management Program A. Applicability. 1. All development applications that warrant transportation mitigation are required to comply with this division. A Transportation Management Program (TMP) is required: a. When a nonresidential development generates demand for more than 25 mobility units during PM trips, provided that under this requirement in mixed use developments a TMP is required only for the nonresidential portion of the development; b. In order for a development to achieve concurrency as required in RZC 21.52.10, Transportation Concurrency; or c. Based on the amount of parking provided by the development, as required in RZC 21.40, Parking Standards. 2. Where a TMP is required separate from subsection A.1.a above, the TMP may be required to exceed the minimum requirements of this section when a more stringent standard is specified. 3. A TMP may be utilized as a method for reducing the required off-street parking stalls, pursuant to the standards in RZC 21.40.010.D, Vehicle Parking. 34. The fee charged for the review and monitoring of a TMP shall be set by ordinance. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 96 of 124 RZC Article IV 21.64 Environmental Regulations Staff Contact Kimberly Dietz Correction Needed The use of the term “hydrologic” is incorrect in describing the model used for hydraulic analysis. Rationale A hydraulic model is used for the type of analysis described in RZC 21.64.040 Frequently Flooded Areas. This name should be consistent with industry terminology for clarity and for reference to state regulations such as 220-660 WAC Hydraulic Code Rules. Amendment 21.64.040 Frequently Flooded Areas A. Classification and Rating of Frequently Flooded Areas. To promote consistent application of the standards and requirements of this chapter, frequently flooded areas within the city of Redmond shall be rated or classified according to their characteristics, function and value, and/or their sensitivity to disturbance. 1. Frequently Flooded Areas Classifications. Frequently flooded areas shall be classified according to the criteria in this section. a. Floodplain. The total area subject to inundation by the base flood (the flood that has a one percent chance of occurring in any given year). b. Flood Fringe. The portion of the floodplain outside of the floodway which is generally covered by flood waters during the base flood and is generally associated with standing water rather than rapidly flowing water. c. FEMA Floodway. The channel of the stream and that portion of the adjoining floodplain which is necessary to contain and discharge the FEMA base flood flow without increasing the FEMA base flood elevation more than one foot. d. Zero-Rise Floodway. The channel of the stream and that portion of the adjoining floodplain which is necessary to contain and discharge the base flood flow without increasing the base flood elevation. The zero-rise floodway will always include the FEMA floodway. 2. Classification of frequently flooded areas shall be determined by the Committee based on consideration of the following factors: a. Maps adopted pursuant to this chapter including the frequently flooded areas map, which identifies the approximate location and extent of the 100-year floodplain. This map shall be used as a general guide only for the assistance of property owners and other interested parties; boundaries are generalized. The actual type, extent, and boundaries of frequently flooded areas shall be determined in the field by a qualified consultant according to the procedures, definitions, and criteria established by this chapter. In the event of any conflict between the critical area ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 97 of 124 location and designation shown on the City’s map and the criteria or standards of this section, the criteria and standards shall prevail. The City will employ hydrologic hydraulic models to define the extent of the zero-rise floodway. If the zero-rise floodway has not yet been defined for the property in question, the applicant will be responsible for modeling the base flood elevation and delineating the extent of the zero-rise floodway, consistent with the assumptions in the Bear Creek Basin Plan as adopted by the City. In the absence of a City hydrologic hydraulic model, FEMA data will be acceptable; b. Flood Insurance Rate Maps published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency; c. Application of the criteria contained in these regulations; and d. Consideration of the technical reports submitted by qualified consultants in connection with applications subject to these regulations. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 98 of 124 RZC Article IV 21.70 State Environmental Policy Act Procedures Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed The reference in 21.70.070 to the Responsible Official is incorrect and should reference 4.50 instead of 4.35. Rationale This incorrect reference should be amended for accuracy. Amendment 21.70.070 Responsible Official For those proposals for which the City is a lead agency, the Responsible Official shall be the City of Redmond Technical Committee as defined in RMC Title 4.3550, Technical Committee. For all proposals for which the City is a lead agency, the Technical Committee shall make the threshold determination, supervise scoping and preparation of any required EIS and perform any other functions assigned to the lead agency or Responsible Official by those sections of the SEPA rules that have been adopted by reference. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 99 of 124 RZC Article IV 21.72 Tree Protection Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed RZC 21.72.060.A.1 requires a 35 percent tree retention in all new “Developments” and includes language that further clarifies “Development”. However, the RZC provides a definition of “Development”. Rationale The additional language that attempts to clarify “Development” is not necessary and may cause conflict with the adopted definition provided in RZC 21.78 Definitions as follows: Development. The division of a parcel of land into two or more parcels; the construction, reconstruction, conversion, structural alteration, relocation, or enlargement of any structure; any mining, excavation, grading, landfill, drainage, removal of vegetation, or disturbance of land or water; and use of land or water or the intensification or extension of the use of land or water. For the purposes of administering RMC Chapter 3.10, Impact Fees, and RZC 21.52, Transportation Standards, “development” shall mean, in addition to the activities in the previous paragraph, any change in the use of a building or structure, or any changes in the use of land, where the construction, expansion, or change, when occupied or used for its intended purpose, has adverse impacts on, and may create additional demand and need for public facilities, programs, projects, or services, including fire, park, school or transportation facilities, programs, projects, or services. For the purposes of administering RZC 21.64.040, Frequently Flooded Areas, development shall mean any man-made change to improved or unimproved real estate, including but not limited to buildings or other structures, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation or drilling operations, storage of equipment or materials, subdivision of land, removal of substantial amounts of vegetation, or alteration of natural site characteristics. Amendment 21.72.060 Tree Protection Standards A. Tree Protection, In General. 1. In all new developments, including additions to existing non-single-family buildings and parking areas, a minimum of 35 percent of all significant trees shall be retained. Trees that are located within Native Growth Protection Areas, critical areas, and their associated buffers as provided in RZC 21.64, Critical Areas, or that have otherwise been designated for protection shall not be removed. Exceptions to this standard shall be requested and reviewed in accordance with RZC 21.72.090, Exceptions. 2. Landmark Trees. Landmark trees shall not be removed unless an exception has been applied for and granted. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 100 of 124 3. Hazardous Trees. Hazardous trees or dead trees posing a hazard, outside of NGPAs, critical areas and buffers, should be removed and are not considered significant trees. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 101 of 124 RZC Article VI 21.76 Review Procedures Staff Contact Administrative Interpretation Correction Needed It is unclear the requirement to obtain a site plan entitlement (SPE) applies to a light rail transit system. Rationale SPE approval is required for light rail station facilities, including associated parking, access, landscaping and other station elements as would be typical of other commercial site plans. SPE approval is not required for light rail transit system elements between stations such as track and guideway, which are linear transportation facilities similar to streets. Amendment RZC 21.76.070.Y. Site Plan Entitlement. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to ensure that site plans reviewed individually or collectively by the Technical Committee, Design Review Board, Landmarks and Heritage Commission, and Code Administrator achieve the following purposes: a. Compliance with the provisions of the RZC and all other applicable law; b. Coordination, as is reasonable and appropriate, with other known or anticipated development on private properties in the area and with known or anticipated right-of-way and other public projects within the area; c. The encouragement of proposals that embody good design principles that will result in high- quality development on the subject property; d. The adequacy of streets and utilities in the area of the subject property to serve the anticipated demand from the proposal. e. Determination that the proposed access to the subject property is the optimal location and configuration for access. 2. Scope. Review and approval of a Site Plan Entitlement is required for any public, semi-public, or private proposal for new construction or exterior modification to a building or site, including multifamily, attached dwelling units in non-single-family zones, commercial, industrial, utility construction, expansion, or exterior remodeling of structures, parking, or landscaping, where the proposed use is shown as permitted in the applicable permitted use chart. All of the above projects require the review and approval of a Site Plan Entitlement except for: a. Detached single-family residential buildings. b. Tenant improvements not encompassing or requiring modification to the exterior of an existing building; and c. Light rail transit system elements between stations such as track and guideway; and ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 102 of 124 d.

Rationale The correction ensures clarity for references between sections of the code. Amendment 21.76.020 Overview of the Development Process E. Design Review. 1. Purpose. The purpose of design review is to: a. Encourage and promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of Redmond, including the development and coordination of municipal growth and services; b. Supplement the City’s land use regulations in order to promote a coordinated development of the undeveloped areas of the City, and conserve and restore natural beauty and other natural resources; c. Encourage originality, flexibility, and innovation in site planning and development, including the architecture, landscaping, and graphic design of proposed developments in relation to the City or design area as a whole; d. Discourage monotonous, drab, and developments and to promote the orderliness of community growth, and the protection and enhancement of property values for the community as a whole and as they relate to each other; e. Aid in ensuring that structures, signs, and other improvements are properly related to their sites and the surrounding sites and structures, with due regard to the aesthetic qualities of the natural terrain and landscaping and ensuring that proper attention is given to exterior appearances of structures, signs and other improvements; f. Protect the heritage of the City by ensuring that historic resources retain integrity, ensuring that developments adjacent to historic landmarks are compatible, and by encouraging design that is appropriate to historic design districts; g. Protect and enhance the City’s pleasant environments for living and working, and thus support and stimulate business and industry, and promote the desirability of investment and occupancy in business and other properties; h. Stabilize and improve property values and prevent blight areas to help provide an adequate tax base to the City to enable it to provide required services to its citizens; and ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 104 of 124 i. Foster civic pride and community spirit by reason of the City’s favorable environment and thus promote and protect the peace, health, and welfare of the City and its citizens. 2. Applicability. Compliance with RZC Article IVII, Design Standards, shall be required for all applications requiring a building permit for exterior modifications, new construction and signs, projects requiring a Level II or III Certificate of Appropriateness, and any private or public development within the Shoreline Jurisdiction. The following are exempt from this requirement: a. One- and two-unit residential structures unless the structure is a historic landmark; and b. Tenant improvements not associated with a historic landmark or not encompassing modifications to the exterior of an existing building. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 105 of 124 RZC Article VI 21.76 Review Procedures Staff Contact Judy Fani Correction Needed RZC 21.76.050-060(K) includes a conflict between process chart in .050 (Type IV Process Chart) and code language in .060.K. The chart refers to calendar days, code language refers to business days regarding Hearing Examiner recommendations and reconsiderations. The chart and/or code should be revised for consistency in how days (calendar VS business) are counted. Rationale This revision makes the chart consistent with the text in 21.76.050-060(K) and is also consistent with other provisions where business days are used when referring to Hearing Examiner reconsideration periods, e.g. Type I chart, and corresponding text in 21.76.060.I.5; Type II chart and corresponding text in 21.76.060.I.5; and for Type III chart and corresponding text in 21.76.060.J which covers both Hearing Examiner and Landmark Commission. Amendment 21.76.050 Permit Types and Procedures I. Type IV Review. Overview of Type IV Review. A Type IV review is a quasi-judicial review and recommendation made by the Hearing Examiner and a decision made by the City Council. Environmental review is conducted when required. At an open record public hearing, the Hearing Examiner considers the recommendation of the Technical Committee and, when required, the Design Review Board, as well as public testimony. Depending on the application, the Technical Committee may require a neighborhood meeting to obtain public input. The Hearing Examiner makes a recommendation to the City Council, which considers the recommendation in a closed record proceeding and makes a final decision. Public notification is provided at the application, public hearing, and decision stages of application review. There is no administrative appeal. The City Council’s decision may be appealed to the King County Superior Court. Process Flow Chart. The flow chart below in Figure 21.76.050D generally depicts the process that will be used to review a typical Type IV land use permit. The process may vary for individual permits based on the nature and complexity of the issues involved. This flow chart is therefore provided for general reference only.

Rationale The correction establishes accuracy regarding references to sections of the code. Amendment 21.76.070 Land Use Actions And Decision Criteria A. Purpose. The purpose of this chapter is to establish the procedures (if different than the standard review type) and the decision criteria for each development application or special procedure. With the exception of Criteria Applicable to all Land Use Permits in RZC 21.76.070.B below, the actions are listed in alphabetical order. B. Criteria Applicable to All Land Use Permits. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to provide general criteria that ensure overall consistency between proposed land use permits, and applicable regulations, and the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Scope. The decision criteria below shall apply to all land use permits. 3. Criteria. a. Consistency. Land use permits are reviewed by the City to determine consistency between the proposed project and the applicable regulations and Comprehensive Plan provisions. i. A proposed project’s consistency with the City’s development regulations shall be determined by consideration of: A. The type of land use; B. The level of development, such as units per acre or other measures of density; C. Availability of infrastructure, including public facilities and services needed to serve the development; and D. The character of the development, such as development standards. ii. Upon review of a land use permit and accompanying site plan, the decision maker shall determine whether building design and/or site design complies with the following provisions: A. The Comprehensive Plan, RZC 21.02, Preface, RZC Article I, Zone-Based Regulations, RZC Article II, Citywide Regulations, and the Appendices that carry out these titles; B. The provisions of RMC Title 15, Buildings and Construction, that affect building location and general site design; C. The Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) if not otherwise satisfied; ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 112 of 124 D. RZC Article VI, Review Procedures, to the extent it provides the procedures to ensure compliance with the requirements in subsections B.3.a.ii.B and B.3.a.ii.C of this section. E. Both within and outside Transition Overlays, decision makers authorized by the RZC to decide upon discretionary approvals may condition such approvals and development permits, including but not limited to site plan approvals, to minimize adverse impacts on other properties and uses, and to carry out the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. b. Limitations on Review. During project review, the City shall not reexamine alternatives to or hear appeals on the items identified in subsection B.3.a.i of this section, except for issues of code interpretation. c. Burden and Nature of Proof. The burden of proof for demonstrating that the application is consistent with the applicable regulations is on the proponent. The project application must be supported by proof that it conforms to the applicable elements of the City’s development regulations and the Comprehensive Plan, and that any significant adverse environmental impacts have been adequately addressed. C. Administrative Design Flexibility. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to promote creativity in site design, allow flexibility in the application of standards in certain zones, and to achieve the creation of sites and uses that may benefit the public by the application of flexible standards not otherwise possible under conventional development regulations. 2. Scope. Administrative design flexibility shall only be considered for adjusting standards in the categories listed below for each type of land use. Requests for adjustment to standards not listed shall be processed as a variance as set forth in RZC 21.76.070.BAB, Variances. AB. Variances. 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to provide a mechanism by which the City may grant relief from certain regulations, where practical difficulty renders compliance with the provisions of that code an unnecessary hardship, where the hardship is a result of the physical characteristics of the subject property, and where the purpose of that code and of the Comprehensive Plan can be fulfilled. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 113 of 124 RZC Article VI 21.76 Review Procedures Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed RZC 21.76.090.C should be harmonized with RZC 21.74.030.E.4.C and vice versa. A preliminary plat is a Type III approval, and is therefore subject to expiry and extension in both 21.76.090.C and 21.74.030.E.4.c. Rationale The proposed amendments identified below ensure clarity between sections of code and procedures. Amendment 21.76.090.C. Termination of Approval of Type I, II, and III Permits. 1. Approval of a Type I, II, or III application shall expire two years from the date approval was final unless significant action proposed in the application has been physically commenced and remains in progress. This expiration excludes preliminary plats subject to expiration under 21.74.030.E. 2. The period may be extended on a yearly basis by the approval authority upon showing proper justification. Proper justification consists of one or more of the following conditions: a. Economic hardship; b. Change of ownership; c. Unanticipated construction and/or site design problems; d. Other circumstances beyond the control of the applicant determined acceptable by the Technical Committee. 3. Once the time period and any extensions have expired, approval shall terminate; and the application is void and deemed withdrawn. 4. Shoreline Substantial Development Permits, Shoreline Conditional Use Permits, and Shoreline Variances. See RZC 21.68.200.C.9. 21.74.030.E. Limitation on Preliminary Approval. a. Final approval of a subdivision must be acquired within seven years of preliminary plat approval if the date of preliminary plat approval is on or before December 31, 2014, and within five years of the date of preliminary plat approval if the date of preliminary plat approval is on or after January 1, 2015, after which time the preliminary plat approval is void. b. Final approval of a subdivision must be acquired within ten years of preliminary plat approval if the date of preliminary plat approval is on or before December 31, 2007, and not subject to the requirements of RCW Chapter 90.58, the Shoreline Management Act, after which time the preliminary plat approval is void.4 ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 114 of 124 c. The Hearing Examiner may grant an extension of the time periods set forth in 4.a and 4.b above for one year if the applicant has attempted in good faith to submit the final plat within the required time period; provided, however, the applicant must file a written request with the Planning Department requesting the extension at least 30 days before expiration of the required time period. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 115 of 124 RZC Article VII RZC 21.78 Definitions Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed RZC 21.78 Manufacturing and Wholesale Trade definition excludes retail sales, however the Manufacturing Park zoning (21.14.040) allows for “Retail sales of goods manufactured on the premises, or accessory or secondary to the primary manufacturing and wholesale trade use, are permitted. Area devoted to retail sales shall not exceed the lesser of 10 percent of combined gross floor area or 1,000 square feet.” This 10% restriction also appears in the Business Park zone (Table 21.14.030C, Line 14, Reg B) and the Industrial Zone (Table 21.14.050C, Line 7, Reg the restriction does not appear in the Regional Retail (21.13.030), NDD2 & NDD3 (21.13.020), or MDD4 (21.13.100) zones. Removal of the retail prohibition from the definition would, in effect, allow retail by-right with no restriction in these other zones. Also, “on the premises” is not defined: do immediately adjacent or proximal sites count as coincident sites? How do we define “on the premises” or do we find another term? Rationale Amending the definition of “Manufacturing and Wholesale Trade” to strike the retail prohibition establishes the retail limitations to be wholly within 21.14.040 (or other applicable zone) instead of the definition. Amendment Manufacturing and Wholesale Trade An establishment that engages in the transformation of raw materials into finished products, in the sale or distribution of those products to persons, firms, or corporations for resale, in the storage of materials or products in a warehouse or similar structure, or in the assembly or fabrication of goods. A manufacturing or wholesale trade establishment does not engage in the retail sale of products to the end consumer. Manufacturing and wholesale trade does not include any activity relating to marijuana. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 116 of 124 RZC Article VII 21.78 Definitions Staff Contact Administrative Interpretation Correction Needed It is unclear whether the phase “neat and approximate” as contained in the definition of Preliminary Plat implies that minor changes in the configuration of an approval short plat or preliminary plat, such as the adjustment in the location of lot lines, are subject to the Administrative Modification review process. Rationale RZC 21.76.090.D states that the Administrative Modification process is for the “modification to an approved project.” This implies that once a preliminary plat has been approved that any proposed change in the configuration of the plat would require that the project go through the Administrative Modification process. The intent of the code is clear that preliminary plat is a general layout of the subdivision and only a neat and approximate plan. It is clear that minor changes to the plan are anticipated as the project develops into the final plat phase. As these changes are anticipated, there is no need for an Administrative Modification. Amendment Preliminary Plat A neat and approximate drawing of a proposed subdivision showing the general layout of streets and alleys, lots, blocks, and other elements of a subdivision consistent with the requirements of the Zoning Code. The preliminary plat shall be the basis for the approval or disapproval of the general layout of a subdivision. The minor alterations of a preliminary approved short plat or subdivision may be brought forward to final plat without obtaining an Administrative Modification. The Administrator may determine that alterations are not minor in nature and therefore, will be required to obtain an Administrative Modification prior to final plat approval. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 117 of 124 RZC Article VII 21.78 Definitions Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed Provide a graphic or illustration to clarify the definition of Story.

Amendment Story That portion of a building included between the upper surface of any floor and the upper surface of the floor next above, except that the topmost story shall be that portion of a building included between the upper surface of the topmost floor and the ceiling or roof above. If the finished floor level directly above a usable or unused underfloor space is more than six feet above grade as defined herein for more than 50 percent of the total perimeter or is more than 12 feet above grade as defined herein at any point, such usable or unused underfloor space shall be considered a story. For non-buildings, or for other instances where measurement in stories is insufficient, a story shall equal 12 feet. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 118 of 124 RMC Title 3. Revenue and Finance 3.10 Impact Fees Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed RMC 3.10.080 references the SIC but should reference the 2007 NAICS. Rationale NAICS was developed under the auspices of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and adopted in 1997 to replace the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. Amendment 3.10.080 Calculation of park, fire, and school impact fees using adopted impact fee schedules. Method of Calculation. All park, fire, and school impact fees shall be calculated using the schedules set forth in this section, except where an independent fee calculation study has been prepared and approved as provided in RMC 3.10.120. When using the impact fee schedules set forth in this section, the park, fire, and school impact fees shall be calculated by using the following formula: Number of units of each use x Impact Fee Amount for a facility type = Amount of Impact Fee that shall be paid for that facility type The number of units of each use determined as follows: for residential uses it is the number of housing units for which a building permit application has been made and (ii) for office, retail, or manufacturing uses it is the gross floor area of building(s) to be used for each use expressed in square feet divided by 1,000 square feet. If uses other than parking vehicles which do not constitute a stock in trade and uses accessory to residences will take place outside of buildings, the calculations shall include the land area on which these uses will take place. Using the formula in subsection of this section, park, fire, and school impact fees shall be calculated separately for each use and each facility type. The total impact fees that shall be paid for any development are the sum of these calculations. If a development activity will include more than one use in a building or site, then the fee shall be determined using the above schedule by apportioning the space committed to the various uses specified on the schedule. If the type of use or development activity is not specified on the impact fee schedules in this section, the Administrator shall use the park, fire, or school impact fee applicable to the most ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 119 of 124 comparable type of land use on the fee schedules. The Administrator shall be guided in the selection of a comparable type by the most recent Standard Industrial Code Manual North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) edition and the Redmond Zoning Code. If the Administrator determines that there is no comparable type of land use on the above fee schedule, then the Administrator shall determine the proper fee by considering demographic or other documentation which is available from state, local, and regional authorities. In the case of a change in use, development activity, redevelopment, or expansion or modification of an existing use, the park, fire, or school impact fee shall be based upon the net positive increase in the impact fee for the new development activity as compared to the previous development activity. The Administrator shall be guided in this determination by the sources and agencies listed above. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 120 of 124 RMC Title 7. Animals RMC 7.04 Animal Control Staff Contact Jae Hill Correction Needed RMC 7.04.154 Beekeeping includes the language "where permitted" but beekeeping isn't listed as a permitted use in any zone. Standards exist for several zones. Rationale Removing "where permitted” allows beekeeping to be identified as a use, where necessary and under certain conditions, in the specified zones. Amendment RMC 7.04.154 Beekeeping. Beekeeping, where permitted, is subject to the following requirements: No more than four hives per lot shall be allowed in areas zoned R-l, R-2, or R-3, and no more than two hives per lot shall be allowed in areas zoned R-4, R-5 or R-6, provided, that a beekeeper who picks up a swarm of bees may hold them for a period of no more than two weeks, notwithstanding the provisions of this section. Colonies shall be maintained in small movable frame hives. Adequate space shall be maintained in the hives to prevent overcrowding and swarming. Colonies shall be requeened with a young hybrid queen annually, or as often as necessary to prevent any swarming or aggressive behavior. All colonies shall be registered with the Washington State Department of Agriculture in accordance with apiary law, RCW 15.60.030. Hives shall not be located within twenty-five feet of any property line, except under the following conditions: When situated eight feet or more above adjacent ground level; or When there is a solid fence at least six feet high separating the hive from the property line, extending at least twenty feet from the hive along the property line in both directions. Bees living in trees, buildings or any other space (except in movable frame hives), abandoned colonies or diseased bees shall constitute a public nuisance and shall be abated, as set forth in this chapter.

Animals RMC 7.04 Animal Control Staff Contact Administrative Interpretation Correction Needed RMC 7.04.157 Chickens describes the maximum number of chickens (female chickens, pullets, or hens) allowed to be kept on individually owned properties. However, the number of chickens allowed to be kept within the Residential Innovative (RIN) zoning designation was not previously included in the corresponding table and code section. This omission was an oversight as the RIN zoning designation is a single-family zoning designation by the Redmond Zoning Code, Chapter 21.08, Section 21.08.070. Rationale The RIN zone allows densities of four or five units to the acre, depending on the site size. The maximum allowed number of chickens is consistent with the maximum number of chickens allowed on individually owned properties in the R-4 and R-5 zones. All other provisions of Section 7.04 Animal Control as well as other related section of Redmond, King County, and Washington State code also apply. Amendment RMC 7.04.157 Chickens. Types. Female chickens, pullets, or hens. Water fowl including ducks, geese, and swans, and other fowl are excluded from this section. Limitations. Female chickens, pullets or hens, hereby referred to as chickens, are allowed in Single-Family zones, the Urban Recreation zone, and on publicly-owned park properties. In Single-Family and Urban Recreation zones, the following maximum number of chickens may be kept on an individually-owned property: Zoning Designation Allowed maximum number of chickens UR 10 RA-5 10 R-1 10 R-2 10 R-3 8 ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 122 of 124 R-4 7 R-5 6 R-6 4 R-8 0 RIN Based on the size of the lot and corresponding density: A. Lots below 30,000 square feet shall be allowed a maximum of six chickens. B. Lots greater than 30,000 square feet shall be allowed a maximum of seven chickens. On publicly-owned park properties, there shall be no limit on the number of chickens kept provided that RMC 7.04.151, Animal structures and runs requirements are met. Chicken Husbandry Registration. Approval of a Chicken Husbandry registration is required to house chickens on any property. The property owner(s) shall complete a Chicken Husbandry registration confirming that: The property owner has read and understands RMC 7.04 Animal Control. The property owner agrees to maintain the subject property and chicken husbandry activity in a manner that complies with RMC 7.04 Animal Control. Property owners who housed chickens prior to December 6, 2011 are permitted to maintain chicken husbandry activities consistent with the RMC 7.04 Animal Control in effect as of December 6, 2011. Shelter and Run. Chickens shall be sheltered in a clean structure which shall be located no less than fifteen feet from any property line. The shelter shall provide protection from the following: ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 123 of 124 i. Weather by providing a fully enclosed structure including walls, roof, floor, and securable door. ii. Predators by being made of sturdy material such as plywood. iii. Rodents by limiting small points of uncontrolled access, no larger than one-half inch. On publicly-owned park properties, there shall be no minimum setback for existing structures provided that RMC 7.04.151, Animal structures and runs requirements are met. Chicken shelter, run, and other structures such as feed storage shall not be located in the front yard and shall be screened at a minimum of Type II – Visual Screen (RZC 21.32 Landscaping) from adjoining streets and access corridors. RZC 21.08.230 Accessory Structures shall apply to chicken shelter, run, and other structures. In addition, the shelter shall be limited to no greater than 200 square feet in gross floor area and shall be no greater than eight feet in height. A chicken run is an enclosed outside yard, no greater than six feet in height, for keeping chickens. A run shall provide protection from the following: Weather by providing a covered portion of run space that allows chickens to escape rain and snow. Predators by being made of sturdy, small gauge animal fencing such as chain link or chicken wire along the entire perimeter of the run. Floor fencing should also be installed. The top of the run shall be covered with additional similar fencing or netting in a manner that helps prevent chickens from straying. The setback required for a chicken shelter and run may be reduced to five feet from any property line provided that the property adjacent to the proposed location of the chicken shelter and run is either: Occupied primarily by a non-residential use such as church, school, or park; A permanently dedicated easement or tract such as a native protection growth easement or open space tract that is at least 10 feet in width; or A street or permanent trail or access corridor that includes a right of way at least 10 feet in width. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2018 Recommended Minor Corrections to the Redmond Zoning Code and Redmond Municipal Code N:\Redmond Zoning Code\Zoning Code Amendments\2018 Zoning Code Amendments\Draft amendments\Combined Amendments final.docx Page 124 of 124 Confinement. Adequate measures shall be taken to provide safety for the chickens and to prevent them from straying onto adjacent property. Animal Waste. Adequate measures shall be taken to properly dispose of animal wastes. Accumulation of animal waste shall be prohibited from being stored within the required fifteen-foot animal shelter setback. Slaughter. Slaughter is intended only for personal consumption and no more than one chicken may be slaughtered on any property located in a residential zone within a twenty-four-hour period. Adequate measures such as arrangement with a mobile slaughter unit or veterinary service shall be taken to slaughter any more than one chicken within a twenty-four-hour period outside of any City of Redmond Residential zone.
