Section 1. Findings of Fact. The City Council makes and enters the following
findings in support of the interim zoning controls
a) In March 1994, the Washington State Legislature amended state law to
prevent cities from enacting or enforcing regulations or policies which prohibit use
of a residential dwelling as a family home daycare facility in a residential or
commercial zone.
b) City staff surveyed neighboring cities' requirements for family home daycare
band determined that they are less restrictive than in Tukwila, and that those cities
receive few complaints about family childcare homes.
c) Information from the National League of Cities and the American Planning
Association shows that the presence of family home daycare in residential areas
has minimal impact on traffic, and does not pose a serious noise problem.
d) RCW 35A.63.220 permits the renewal of interim zoning regulations for one or
more six -month periods.
e) Permanent provisions for family childcare homes will be part of the workplan
for the draft Zoning Code, due to be prepared in 1995
Section 2. Interim Controls Extended. The interim regulations established by
Ordinance 1704 on May 25, 1994 are hereby extended for a period of six months from
the effective date of this ordinance.
Section 3. Severability. If any section, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance
should be held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction,
such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of
any other section, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance.
Section 4. Effective Date. This ordinance or a summary thereof shall be published
in the official newspaper of the City, and shall take effect and be in full force five (5)
days after passage and publication as provided by law
