15.04.010 Interpretation of land use tables.

A. Land use tables. The land use tables in KCC 15.04.020 through 15.04.140 determine whether a specific use is allowed in a zoning district. The zoning districts are located in the vertical columns and the land uses are located on the horizontal rows of these tables. A purpose statement for each zoning district is included in Ch. 15.03 KCC.

B. Principally permitted uses. If the letter “P” appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is permitted in that zoning district subject to the review procedures specified in Ch. 15.09 KCC, the development conditions following the land use table, and any requirements of an overlay zone and the general requirements of the code.

C. Special uses. If the letter “S” appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is permitted in that zoning district subject to the review procedures specified in Ch. 15.09 KCC, the development conditions following the land use table, the development standards stated in KCC 15.08.020, any requirements of an overlay zone and the general requirements of the code.

D. Conditional uses. If the letter “C” appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is permitted in that zoning district subject to the review procedures specified in Ch. 15.09 KCC, the development conditions following the land use table, the review criteria stated in KCC 15.09.030, any requirements of an overlay zone and the general requirements of the code.

E. Accessory uses. If the letter “A” appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is permitted in that zoning district subject to the review procedures specified in Ch. 15.09 KCC, the development conditions following the land use table and any requirements of an overlay zone and the general requirements of the code.

F. Development conditions. If a number appears next to the land use or in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use may be allowed subject to the appropriate review process indicated above, the general requirements of the code, and the specific conditions indicated in the development condition with the corresponding number in subsection immediately following each land use table.

G. Multiple development conditions. If more than one (1) letter-number combination appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is allowed in that zone subject to different sets of limitations or conditions depending on the review process indicated by the letter, the general requirements of the code, and the specific conditions indicated in the development condition with the corresponding number immediately following the table.

H. Overlay zones. Overlay districts provide policies and regulations in addition to those in the underlying zoning district. Overlay zones include the mixed use overlay and the Green River Corridor district.

I. Applicable requirements. All applicable requirements shall govern a use whether or not they are cross-referenced in a section.

J. Interpretation of other uses. Any other unnamed use shall be permitted if it is determined by the planning manager to be of the same general character as the principally permitted uses and in accordance with the stated purpose of the district, per KCC 15.09.065.

(Ord. No. 3439, § 2, 2-2-99; Ord. No. 3600, § 3, 5-7-02; Ord. No. 3612, § 3, 8-6-02; Ord. No. 3750, § 2, 5-17-05)

15.04.030 Residential land use development conditions.

1. Dwelling units, limited to not more than one (1) per establishment, for security or maintenance personnel and their families, when located on the premises where they are employed in such capacity. No other residential use shall be permitted.

2. Multifamily residential use shall be permitted only in the mixed use overlay when included within a mixed use development.

3. [Reserved].

4. Multifamily residential uses, when established in buildings with commercial or office uses, and not located on the ground floor.

5. Multifamily residential uses, when not combined with commercial or office uses.

6. Existing dwellings may be rebuilt, repaired, and otherwise changed for human occupancy. Accessory uses for existing dwellings may be constructed. Such uses are garages, carports, storage sheds, and fences.

7. Transitional housing facilities, limited to a maximum of twenty (20) residents at any one (1) time and four (4) resident staff.

8. Guesthouses not rented or otherwise conducted as a business.

9. Farm dwellings appurtenant to a principal agricultural use for the housing of farm owners, operators, or employees, but not accommodations for transient labor.

10. Accessory dwelling units shall not be included in calculating the maximum density. Accessory dwelling units are allowed subject to the provisions of KCC 15.08.350.

11. Customary incidental home occupations subject to the provisions of KCC 15.08.040.

12. Except for transitional housing, with a maximum of twenty (20) residents and four (4) staff, which are principally permitted uses.

13. Subject to the combining district requirements of the mobile home park code, Chapter 12.05 KCC.

14. Accessory living quarters are allowed per the provisions of KCC 15.08.359.

15. Multifamily residential use shall be permitted as a conditional use only when included in a mixed use development.

16. Recreational vehicle storage is permitted as an accessory use in accordance with KCC 15.08.080.

17. Accommodations for farm operators and employees, but not accommodations for transient labor.

18. Other accessory uses and buildings customarily appurtenant to a permitted use, except for onsite hazardous waste treatment and storage facilities, which are not permitted in residential zones.

19. The following zoning is required to be in existence on the entire property to be rezoned at the time of application for a rezone to an MR-T zone: SR-8, MR-D, MR-G, MR-M, MR-H, O, O-MU, NCC, CC, GC, DC, or DCE.

20. All multifamily townhouse developments in the MR-T zone shall be recorded as townhouses with ownership interest, as defined in KCC 15.02.525.1, prior to approval of a certificate of occupancy by the city.

21. Subject to KCC 15.08.160(A) and (B), Accessory buildings.

22. One (1) duplex per lot is permitted.

23. Secure community transition facilities are permitted only in the GWC zoning district.

24. Class II and class III group homes, other than secure community transition facilities, are not allowed in this zoning district. A secure community transition facility shall also comply with applicable state siting and permitting requirements pursuant to Chapter 71.09 RCW. Secure community transition facilities are not subject to the siting criteria of KCC 15.08.280 for class III group homes, but they are subject to a six hundred (600) foot separation from any other class II or III group home. In no case shall a secure community transition facility be sited adjacent to, immediately across the street or parking lot from, or within the line of sight of risk potential activities or facilities in existence at the time a site is listed for consideration. Within line of sight means that it is possible to reasonably visually distinguish and recognize individuals. For the purposes of granting a conditional use permit for siting a secure community transition facility, the hearing examiner shall consider an unobstructed visual distance of six hundred (600) feet to be “within line of sight.” During the conditional use permit process for a secure community transition facility, “line of sight” may be considered to be less than six hundred (600) feet if the applicant can demonstrate that visual barriers exist or can be created that would reduce the line of sight to less than six hundred (600) feet. This distance shall be measured by following a straight line, without regard to intervening buildings, from the nearest point of the property or parcel upon which the proposed use is to be located, to the nearest point of the parcel or property or the land use district boundary line from which the proposed use is to be separated. For the purpose of granting a conditional use permit for a secure community transition facility, the hearing examiner shall give great weight to equitable distribution so that the city shall not be subject to a disproportionate share of similar facilities of a state-wide, regional, or county-wide nature.

25. A designated manufactured home is a permitted use with the following conditions:

a. A designated manufactured home must be a new manufactured home;

b. The designated manufactured home shall be set upon a permanent foundation, as specified by the manufacturer, and the space from the bottom of the home to the ground shall be enclosed by concrete or an approved concrete product that can be either load bearing or decorative;

c. The designated manufactured home shall comply with all city design standards applicable to all other single-family homes;

d. The designated manufactured home shall be thermally equivalent to the State Energy Code; and

e. The designated manufactured home shall meet all other requirements for a designated manufactured home as defined in RCW 35.63.160.

26. Multifamily dwellings shall be allowed only within the Kent downtown districts outlined in the Downtown Strategic Action Plan and shall be condominiums recorded pursuant to Chapter 64.32 or 64.34 RCW or similar dwelling units with ownership interest and recorded as such prior to approval of a certificate of occupancy by the city.

27. Within subdivisions, as defined by KCC 12.04.025, vested after March 22, 2007, or altered to comply with zoning and subdivision code amendments effective after March 22, 2007, twenty-five (25) percent of the total number of permitted dwelling units may be duplex or triplex townhouse structures.

28. Live-work units; provided, that the following development standards shall apply for live-work units, in addition to those set forth in KCC 15.04.190:

a. The unit shall contain a cooking space and sanitary facility in conformance with applicable building standards;

b. Adequate and clearly defined working space must constitute no less than fifty (50) percent of the gross floor area of the live-work unit. Said working space shall be reserved for and regularly used by one (1) or more persons residing there;

c. At least one (1) resident in each live-work unit shall maintain at all times a valid city business license for a business on the premises;

d. Persons who do not reside in the live-work unit may be employed in the live-work unit when the required parking is provided;

e. Customer and client visits are allowed when the required parking is provided;

f. No portion of a live-work unit may be separately rented or sold as a commercial space for a person or persons not living on the premises, or as a residential space for a person or persons not working on the premises;

g. The multiple-family design guidelines and development standards do not apply to live-work units;

h. Construct all nonresidential space, to the maximum allowed, to commercial building standards; and

i. Provide an internal connection between the residential and nonresidential space within each unit.

15.04.150 Special use combining district, SU.

It is the purpose of the SU district to provide for special controls for certain uses which do not clearly fit into other districts, which may be due to technological and social changes, or which are of such unique character as to warrant special attention in the interest of the city’s optimum development and the preservation and enhancement of its environmental quality. A special use combining district is imposed on an existing zoning district, permitting the special use as well as uses permitted by the underlying zone. The combining district becomes void if substantial construction has not begun within a one-year period, and the district reverts to its original zoning designation. It is the intent of the special use combining regulations to provide the city with adequate procedures for controlling and reviewing such uses and to discourage application for speculative rezoning.

A. Uses subject to special use combining district regulations. The following list is illustrative of the types of uses subject to special use combining district regulations and is not intended to be exclusive:

1. Uses which occupy or would occupy large areas of land.

2. Uses which would involve the construction of buildings or other structures of unusual height or mass.

3. Uses which house, employ, or serve large numbers of people.

4. Uses which generate heavy traffic.

5. Uses which have unusual impact on environmental quality of the area.

6. Any use which does not lend itself to an interpretation of substantial similarity to other uses identified or described in this title.
