TO: City Manager for Council Consideration
FROM: Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Polo Ridge #2 Preliminary Major Plat
Schneider Homes has submitted a preliminary plat for 16 single family lots on 4.12 acres
located north of Crestview Drive and east of Paxson Drive. The area is zoned R-1, Single
Family Residential, which corresponds with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Designation of Low Density Residential. A waiver was requested for side lot line angle for
one lot and a deferral was requested to allow a temporary gravel cul-de-sac on Polo Ridge
Drive.
The Planning Commission recommended that the preliminary plat be approved with the
following conditions:
1. The comments of the Development Engineer shall be addressed before final plat
submittal.
2. The deviation for the side lot line of Lot 1, Block 1 to be more than 20 degrees from
perpendicular with the front lot line is granted.
3. A deferral of cul-de-sac improvements to allow a temporary gravel cul-de-sac on
Polo Ridge Drive shall be granted, with the condition that a covenant be required
for the construction of the cul-de-sac to current standards within 5 years if the street
is not extended.
As no appeal was taken from this decision of the Planning Commission, the Council's
approval of this decision incorporates and adopts the Findings, Conclusion and Decision
of the Planning Commission.

BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION/CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF MOSES LAKE, WASHINGTON
IN THE MATTER OF THE POLO RIDGE #2
MAJOR PRELIMINARY PLAT
FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS, AND
DECISION
1. HEARING BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
1.1 Date. A public hearing was held upon proper notice before the Commission on August 15,
2013.
1.2 Proponent. Schneider Homes, Inc. of Tukwila, WA is the proponent of this plat.
1.3 Purpose. The proponent has requested a preliminary major plat to divide 4.12 acres of land
into 16 single family lots upon property located in the southwest quarter of section 15 and
northwest quarter of Section 22, Township 19N, Range 28E, and more fully described on the
face of the plat. The proponent has requested a deviation for the side lot line angle of Lot 1,
Block 1, and a deferral of cul-de-sac improvements on Polo Ridge Drive. The previously-
approved preliminary plat for a larger area was withdrawn.
1.4 Evidence. The Commission considered the following materials in reaching its decision:
A. The plat submitted June 14, 2013
B. Staff report and attachments.
C. Testimony from Anne Henning, staff; and Larry Angell of Columbia Northwest
Engineering, representing the proponent.
2. FINDINGS OF FACT BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
Based upon the evidence presented to it, the Commission makes the following findings of fact:
2.1 The proponent is the developer of the property legally described above located within the City
limits.
2.2 The property is currently vacant. Any new development must meet current standards and
regulations.
2.3 Surrounding land uses are existing residential to the south and east, a church to the north,
and vacant land zoned R-l and owned by the proponent to the west.
2.4 . Per the Development Engineer's com ments, the requested deviation for curb tangent lengths
is not needed, since there is no minimum standard for residential streets.
2.5 Per the Municipal Services Director, the requested deviation for constructed width of streets
is a Community Standards deviation, so will be addressed with the street construction plans,
not the plat, so no action by the Planning Commission is needed.
2.6 The requested deferral of landscape installation is not needed, since the code specifically
allows landscaping to be installed lot-by-Iot.
2.7 The requested deviation for the angle between the front and side lot lines for Lot 1, Block 1
is due to existing property lines created by previous platting .
2.8 The requested deferral of cul-de-sac improvements is for the west end of Polo Ridge Drive.
The developer intends to continue this street in future phases of Polo Ridge.
2.9 To offset the impacts on the park system created by this new development, MLMC 17.27
requires dedication of land for open space and parks or a fee in lieu of dedication. This was
addressed in the MDNS.
FINDINGS OF FACT
POLO RIDGE #2 MAJOR PRELIMINARY PLAT
Page 2
August 29, 2013
2.10 The Development Engineer provided a list of corrections that must be addressed prior to the
submission of the major plat for final review. He had no objections to the requested
deviations for lot line angle and requested deferral of cul-de-sac improvements, provided a
temporary gravel cul-de-sac is constructed and a covenant is required for permanent
improvements to Community Standards if the street is not continued within five years .
2.11 The Bureau of Reclamation and East Columbia Basin Irrigation District had no required
corrections.
2.12 The Washington State Department of Ecology commented about water rights.
2.13 The Washington State Department of Transportation commented that they have no
objections or issues with the subdivision.
2.14 A Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance with 11 conditions was issued on July 12,
2013 under the State Environmental Policy Act Rules (WAC 197-11). The conditions were
related to cleanup of accidental spills, stormwater, sediment control, controlling weeds and
dust, fill, street and utility improvements, traffic signal mitigation, parks, and water rights. The
conditions of the MDNS automatically become conditions of the project approval.
2.15 The closest corridor for which the Comprehensive Plan sets a minimum acceptable
transportation level of service is Valley Road, where the standard is D for the Grape Drive
intersection, C for the Central Drive intersection, and F for the Stratford Road intersection.
The existing level of service for these intersections is B (Grape), B (Central), and D
(Stratford). Where no level of service is specifically adopted, the minimum level of service
standard is D (Service Standards and Concurrency Policy 5.3). The project will be required
to contribute to a future traffic signal at Paxson and Valley.
2.16 Com prehensive Plan Land Use Policy 4 encourages infill developments that are scaled and
designed to fit their surroundings on properties suited to urban development.
2.17 Residential Land Use Policy 24 states that the City shall assure that each neighborhood has
safe and reasonable access to schools, shopping facilities , and recreational areas without
mandatory dependency on the use of the automobile by providing pedestrian and bike paths.
2.18 Community Image and Design Policy 101 asks for new developments to be designed to
incorporate features to encourage alternative travel modes, such as transit, biking and
walking.
2.19 Housing Goal 1 and Policies 1.1 and 1.4 speak to providing diversity in housing options and
adequate supply of all types of housing to allow price and location choices.
2.20 Transportation Framework Goal 1 is that the City's transportation system should promote
mobility for Moses Lake's Citizens and workers by providing a range of transportation
alternatives. The transportation system should emphasize facilities and services which
support and encourage transit, ride sharing, bicycling, and walking as alternatives to the use
of the automobile.
2.21 Transportation and Land Use Policy 4.1 provides that new development and redevelopment
shall encourage transit and be required to incorporate pedestrian supportive measures such
as providing pedestrian spaces, providing adequate sidewalks, bikeways, pathways, and
crosswalks; preserving the connectivity of the pedestrian, bicycle, and street system; and
traffic calming, reducing walkway crossing distances and improving visual character of
neighborhood streets.
2.22 Bicycle and Pedestrian Transportation Goal9A requires the City to promote the use of bicycle
and pedestrian transportation as viable alternatives to motorized transportation.
2.23 Bicycle and Pedestrian Transportation Goal 9B is to allow people to bicycle safely,
conveniently, and pleasurably to easily complete trips within five miles of their homes, and
FINDINGS OF FACT
POLO RIDGE #2 MAJOR PRELIMINARY PLAT
Page 3
August29,2013
to make streets and roads "bicycle friendly" and well-designed to accommodate both
motorized and non-motorized modes of transportation.
2.24 Bicycle and Pedestrian Transportation Policy9.3 provides for adequate roadway, pedestrian,
and bicycling connections in newly developing and redeveloping areas of the city, promoting
both internal access and linkages with the rest of the city.
2.25 Circulation System Management Goal 10 speaks to a functional circulation system that
serves the existing and future population, and considers vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian
safety, traveling efficiency, and impacts to neighborhoods and adjacent properties.
2.26 Circulation System Management Policy 1 0.1 is to develop and maintain a cost effective street
system that serves the existing and future population, minimizes transportation delays and
impacts to neighborhoods, and minimizes the disruption of the natural environment. All
streets should include facilities for pedestrians and bicycles that are appropriate for the street
classification and local conditions.
2.27 Circulation System Management Policy 1 0.4 assures safe and convenient access by all travel
modes to residential neighborhoods, employment and retail centers, and major community
and government facilities from arterial streets. Development approval should:
A. Require that all property in the City be accessible from streets.
B. Maintain continuity of the street pattern by avoiding half streets and dead-end streets
not having turnaround provisions.
C. Avoid the creation of excessively large blocks and long local access residential
streets.
D. Encourage grid street patterns to provide better connections for all travel modes and
reduce traffic congestion by spreading traffic among many available routes.
E. Provide for bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
2.28 Capital Facilities-Parks and Recreation Goal 2 states that the City will provide an integrated
system of parks, recreation facilities , trails, greenbelts, and open space as community
assets, both in form and function.
3. CONCLUSIONS BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
From the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission makes the following conclusions:
3.1 The decision of the Planning Commission must be supported by the evidence presented and
must be consistent with the standards and criteria for review specified in state statutes and
city ordinances. The standards and criteria for review of preliminary plat applications are
found in Chapter 58.17 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), Title 17 of the Moses
Lake Municipal Code (MLMC), and Title 20 MLMC.
3.2 The requirements of MLMC 20.09.020 are met:
1. Comprehensive Plan/Municipal Code: The development is consistent with
Comprehensive Plan goals and policies on infill and housing by developing vacant
land abutting existing development and by providing more housing. The
development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan goals and policies on
transportation since it provides good vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian circulation.
With conditions for parks mitigation, it is consistent with Comprehensive Plan goals
and policies on parks by providing land or funds for parks. If a deviation for lot line
angle of one lot and a deferral of the timing of permanent cul-de-sac improvements
are granted, the development meets the requirements and intent of the Municipal
Code.
2. Adequate provisions for necessary improvements: With conditions for street and
utility construction, the development makes adequate provisions for streets and other
public ways, water supply, and sanitary wastes through the dedication and
improvement of rights-of-way. With conditions for park development, it makes
FINDINGS OF FACT
POLO RIDGE #2 MAJOR PRELIMINARY PLAT
Page 4
August29,2013
adequate provision for parks and recreation facilities. With conditions for a future
signal, it makes adequate provisions for future traffic impacts.
3. Impacts: No impacts have been identified under Chapters 14 through 19 that will not
be mitigated through existing regulations and conditions.
4. Public health, safety, welfare, and interest: The development is beneficial to the
public health, safety and welfare and is in the public interest because it promotes
orderly and efficient division of undeveloped land in compliance with state law and
makes it suitable for residential development consistent with the intent of the R-1
Zone.
5. Transportation Level of Service: The development does not lower the level of
service of transportation facilities below the minimum standards established in the
Comprehensive Plan because the existing street infrastructure is adequate for the
additional traffic and the development will contribute its fair share to the cost of a
traffic signal which will maintain traffic level of service above the minimum standards.
6. Parks Level of Service: The development does not lower the level of service of
neighborhood park facilities below the minimum standards established in the
Comprehensive Plan because it will contribute its fair share to the cost of developing
a park to serve the area.
7. Dedications: The street rights-of-way proposed for dedication are a direct result of
the development proposal, are needed to serve the development, and are the
standard width required for all residential streets.
3.3 The requested deviation to minimum curb tangent length for curves within the plat is not
needed, since there is no minimum standard for residential streets.
3.4 The requested deviation for the side lot line of Lot 1, Block 1 to be more than 20 degrees
from perpendicular with the front lot line is needed due to existing property lines on adjacent
property. The lot configuration does not impact the buildability of the lot, since the minimum
lot standards would be met even if the lot were rectangular and excluded the extra area
created by the non-perpendicular lot line.
3.5 The requested deferral of the permanent cul-de-sac is reasonable, since the street is
expected to be continued within five years . Requiring a permanent cul-de-sac that would
have to be removed within a few years would be an unusual and unnecessary expense to the
developer. Turn-around facilities will be provided by the gravel cul-de-sac, and the covenant
will guarantee that facilities to Community Standards will be installed if the street is not
extended.
3.6 The requested deferral of landscape installation is not needed since the Municipal Code
allows what is being requested.
3.7 The required street frontage landscaping softens the impact of the paved surfaces, provides
shade for pedestrians and structures, and enhances the right-of-way for pedestrian use. As
the trees mature, the canopies will narrow the driver's perception of the road width, slowing
traffic and improving safety.
3.8 The development meets the requirements of RCW 58.17 and MLMC 17.12 by making
appropriate provisions for the public health, safety, and general welfare by providing
adequate streets, including curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and street lighting; serving the
development with City water and sewer, and providing funds toward the development of a
neighborhood park and future traffic signal.

A. The owner or occupier of property that abuts sidewalks or abuts dedicated city right-of-way or
deeded city property adjacent to sidewalks shall bear the duty and expense of maintaining
sidewalks in a good state of repair, free from obstructions, and in a clean condition. However,
the city shall bear the duty and expense to repair sidewalks in the Paver District that are
constructed with concrete brick pavers, and all sidewalks that were constructed of concrete
brick pavers through city participation. For sidewalks to be in a good state of repair, the
sidewalks shall not have any vertical differences of one inch (1 ") or greater; and they shall not
have any contiguous areas of spalling greater than four (4) square feet. Exposed aggregate
in existing sidewalks shall be considered spalling when the surface wear measures one-
quarter inch (1/4") or greater in differential elevation.
B. The city may participate in sidewalk repairs for sidewalks that are wider than six feet (6'). Such
participation may be made for sidewalk repairs that are within the right-of-way and that are
beyond the first six feet (6') of sidewalk nearest to the curb. Such participation is valid only if
the city has provided written pre-approval for the sidewalk repairs. When the city agrees to
participate with sidewalk repairs for over-width sidewalks, the owner will pay the contractor for
the full repairs; and the city will make payment directly to the owner for pre-approved sidewalk
repairs after the owner has provided a paid invoice from their contractor.
C. Chapter12.20 of the Moses Lake Municipal Code provides requirements for sidewalk service
requirements.
