13.17.080 Permit applications.
A. Applications for shoreline substantial development permits, shoreline conditional use permits and shoreline variance requests shall be on an application form provided by the shoreline administrator. All applications shall be accompanied with the information as identified within WAC 173-27-180, or as may be subsequently amended, which are duplicated in subsection B of this section. In the case of a discrepancy the submittal requirements of WAC 173-27-180 shall govern.
B. In addition to the minimum application requirements as set forth in BMC 11.06.002, a complete application for a substantial development, conditional use, or variance permit shall contain the minimum application submittal items:
1. The name, address and phone number of the applicant. The applicant should be the owner of the property or the primary proponent of the project and not the representative of the owner or primary proponent;
2. The name, address and phone number of the applicant’s representative if other than the applicant;
3. The name, address and phone number of the property owner, if other than the applicant;
4. Location of the property. This shall, at a minimum, include the property address and identification of the section, township and range to the nearest quarter, quarter section or latitude and longitude to the nearest minute. All applications for projects located in open water areas away from land shall provide a longitude and latitude location;
5. Identification of the name of the shoreline (water body) that the site of the proposal is associated with. This should be the water body from which jurisdiction of the Act over the project is derived;
6. A general description of the proposed project that includes the proposed use or uses and the activities necessary to accomplish the project;
7. A general description of the property as it now exists including its physical characteristics and improvements and structures;
8. A general description of the vicinity of the proposed project including identification of the adjacent uses, structures and improvements, intensity of development and physical characteristics;
9. A site development plan consisting of maps and elevation drawings, drawn to an appropriate scale to depict clearly all required information, photographs and text, which shall include:
a. The boundary of the parcel(s) of land upon which the development is proposed.
b. The ordinary high water mark of all water bodies located adjacent to or within the boundary of the project. This may be an approximate location; provided, that for any development where a determination of consistency with the applicable regulations requires a precise location of the ordinary high water mark, the mark shall be located precisely and the biological and hydrological basis for the location as indicated on the plans shall be included in the development plan. Where the ordinary high water mark is neither adjacent to nor within the boundary of the project, the plan shall indicate the distance and direction to the nearest ordinary high water mark of a shoreline.
c. Existing and proposed land contours. The contours shall be at intervals sufficient to accurately determine the existing character of the property and the extent of proposed change to the land that is necessary for the development. Areas within the boundary that will not be altered by the development may be indicated as such and contours approximated for that area.
d. A delineation of all wetland areas that will be altered or used as a part of the development.
e. A general indication of the character of vegetation found on the site.
f. The dimensions and locations of all existing and proposed structures and improvements including but not limited to: buildings, paved or graveled areas, roads, utilities, septic tanks and drainfields, material stockpiles or surcharge, and storm water management facilities.
g. Where applicable, a landscaping plan for the project.
h. Where applicable, plans for development of areas on or off the site as mitigation for impacts associated with the proposed project shall be included and contain information consistent with the requirements of this section.
i. Quantity, source and composition of any fill material that is placed on the site, whether temporary or permanent.
j. Quantity, composition and destination of any excavated or dredged material.
k. A vicinity map showing the relationship of the property and proposed development or use to roads, utilities, existing developments and uses on adjacent properties.
l. Where applicable, a depiction of the impacts to views from existing residential uses and public areas.
m. On all variance applications the plans shall clearly indicate where development could occur without approval of a variance, the physical features and circumstances on the property that provide a basis for the request, and the location of adjacent structures and uses;
10. Supporting affidavits, on forms provided by the community development department;
11. Any information or material that is specified in other provisions of this title;
12. Any additional information or material that the shoreline administrator specifies at the presubmittal conference; and
13. All applicable fees as established by the city fee resolution. (Ord. 2112 § 3 (Exh. C), 2013).
