At the September 8 Regular Meeting, there was Council consensus to add a discussion about impacts to residential neighborhoods to the September 14 Committee of the Whole agenda. BACKGROUND The City of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan, first adopted in 1995, establishes goals and policies that guide the community as it grows and changes over time. Its policies and land use map lay out the community's long range vision. As required by Washington State law, the City is currently conducting a thorough review of the Comprehensive Plan to bring it up to date with any relevant changes in the Growth Management Act and to respond to changes in land use and population growth. City Council involvement in the 2015 Comprehensive Plan update included work sessions in July and August, a public hearing on August 10, 2015, and deliberations on August 24, 2015. At the August 24, Committee of the Whole meeting, Council consensus existed to forward the revised draft Comprehensive Plan to a future regular meeting for adoption. DISCUSSION Since the August 24, 2015 deliberations, residents from single - family neighborhoods have expressed concern about proposed language regarding development in single - family neighborhoods. Specifically, residents have expressed concern regarding smaller lot sizes and allowing development other than single - family homes in residential neighborhoods. Attachment A reflects a comparison of current and proposed Comprehensive Plan policies and implementation strategies that relate to single family lot size and housing types. FINANCIAL IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION City Council discussion on the draft updated Comprehensive Plan language. ATTACHMENTS Current and Proposed Comprehensive Plan Policies — Single Family Lot Size & Housing Types 5 ATTACHMENT A Current & Proposed Comprehensive Plan Policies — Single- Family Lot Size & Housing Types A main goal of the draft updated Comprehensive Plan policies is to preserve and enhance the existing development patterns and character of single - family neighborhoods while allowing more flexibility in future development, if so desired by residents and property owners, and Council. Overall, the current Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 1995, and the updated policy language share key features: • Prevailing lot size in single - family neighborhoods — Low Density Residential (LDR) — is a 6,500 square ft minimum. • A maximum of two units per lot, if development criteria are met. • Zoning code updates are a legislative process with robust public input and outreach and ultimate action decided by Council. • A clear directive to preserve and enhance stable neighborhoods: Policy 7.1.1— Maintain a comprehensive land use map that supports the preservation and enhancement of single-family and stable multi family neighborhoods; eliminates incompatible land uses, and clearly establishes applicable development requirements through recognizable boundaries. Current Comp Plan & Zoning Code LOT SIZE Policy 3.1.2 — Establish 6.7 dwelling units per acre (6,500 square foot lots) as a maximum for single - family neighborhoods HOUSING DIVERSITY Policy 3.2.7 — Encourage a full range of housing opportunities for all population segments by actions including but not limited to revising the Tukwila development codes as appropriate to provide a range of housing types Implementation Strategies: • Allow an attached accessory dwelling unit if meets development criteria • Allow limited demonstration projects such as clustered cottage housing Zoning Code Attached accessory dwelling units allowed in all residential zones (LDR, MDR, HDR). Criteria are in place to ensure form (look and feel) of ADUs are compatible with the neighborhood. Updated Comp Plan LOT SIZE Policy 3.1.2 — Explore adopting smaller lot sizes in neighborhoods where the historical lot pattern is smaller than the established 6.7 dwelling units per acre (6,500 square foot lots) Implementation Strategies: • Meet with residents and property owners to receive input to help establish desired lot area minimums • Prevailing lot size (6,500 sf minimum) to remain with option for smaller lots if desired by Council HOUSING DIVERSITY Policy 3.2.1— Provide zoning that allows a variety of housing throughout the City to allow for diverse, equitable neighborhoods Implementation Strategies: • Explore allowing attached and detached accessory dwelling units, a duplex, or a two -unit condominium /townhome in single family zones NOTE: This would allow no more than two units per lot. Current zoning code allows two units per lot (main home and attached ADU) • Using lessons learned, reinstate the demonstration projects for cottage housing 8/26/2015 C:\ Users \christy \AppData \Local \Microsoft \Windows \Temporary Internet Files \Content.Outlook \H94XRZJM \Current v Proposed SF Policies (5).docx 0 Upcoming Meetings & Events September 2015 14th (Monday) 15th uesda 16th (Wednesday) 17th (Thursday) 18th (Friday) 19th (Saturday) ➢ Community ➢ Arts ➢ Park Commission, ➢ Tukwila Day of Caring City of Tukwila Affairs & Commission, 5:30 PM Historical Volunteer Event on Clean -Up Event Parks Cmte, 5:00 PM (Community Society, the Duwamish 8:30 AM — 3:00 PM 5:30 PM (Community Center) 7:00 PM 10:00 AM — 2:00 PM At Saar$ Super (Hazelnut Center) (Tukwila At both the Duwamish Saver Foods, 3725 Conference (Rescheduled Heritage & Hill Preserve and the S. 144x' and Tukwila Room) from 911) Cultural Duwamish Shoreline.
