body
DEPARTMENT: Council
ORIGINATOR: Ryan Hembree for Chair Nehring
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: N/A
PURPOSE: Townhomes are currently allowed reduced setbacks for covered parking. This ordinance extends those provisions to multiple family dwellings.
BACKGROUND: On June 14, 2023, the Snohomish County Council (“County Council”) adopted Ordinance 23-051 establishing a Rural Village Housing Demonstration Program (“RVHDP”). SCC Table 30.23.043 requires a minimum setback to the entrance of a covered parking structure to be at least 20 feet from a private road in the zones that allow the RVHDP. The proposed code section will allow for reduced setbacks for covered parking structures for RVDHP projects, modeled after the provisions in SCC 30.23.049(14), but which also allow reduced setbacks for covered parking structures for multiple family dwellings in the RVHDP. The proposed code section also includes a retroactive provision to ensure that applicants with approved or existing RVDHP applications will be allowed reduced setbacks for covered parking structures for their RVDHP projects.
