The Applicant requested a special use permit to allow expansion of an existing 44,000 square foot industrial building in the Rural Residential Resource Zoning District (RRR 1/5) to 63,000 square feet. Proposed improvements include on-site parking, landscaping, and stormwater infrastructure. The site is at 6631 Rixie Road SE, Olympia, Washington. 2 Exhibit 1. 2. The subject property has a Rural Residential Resource Zoning District (RRR 1/5) zoning designation. The purpose of the RRR 1/5 zone is to encourage residential development that maintains the county's rural character; provides opportunities for compatible agricultural, forestry and other rural land uses; is sensitive to the site's physical characteristics; provides greater opportunities for protecting sensitive environmental areas and creating open space corridors; enables efficient road and utility systems; and does not create demands for urban level services. Thurston County Code (TCC) 20.09A.010. The primary permitted uses in the zone are agriculture, single-family and duplex residential development, home occupation, and farm housing. TCC 20.09A.020. 3. A legally established, isolated commercial or industrial business that provides job opportunities for rural residents that was in operation on or before July 1, 1990 may expand in the RRR 1/5 zone with special use permit approval subject to use-specific standards. TCC 20.54.070(23.5). 2 The legal description of the subject property is a portion of Section 6, Township 11 North, Range 1 West, WM; known as Tax Parcel No. 11706240500. Exhibit 1. Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 3 of 14

4. The 6.32-acre subject property has been used for industrial manufacturing since the1960s, despite the adoption of residential zoning in 1980. Active industrial use of the site stopped in 2008. Since that time, its owners have taken actions that have maintained its legal nonconforming use status, including: marketing the site as industrial; payment in full of industrial property use taxes; extensive clean up of industrial contamination found on-site in 2008; and lack of non-industrial use. The Applicant, Setina Manufacturing Company, initiated purchase negotiation in 2008, but the sale was impeded by discovery of the contamination. Setina has been in the business of manufacturing law enforcement vehicle equipment in Thurston County for over 50 years. Exhibit 1; Attachment S. 5. Presently, the site is developed with the 42,224 square foot industrial building in the southwest corner, a caretaker residence near Rixie Road SE, and a septic system. It borders Rixie Road to the east, and there is a Burlington Northern railroad to the east and northeast. A 250-foot wide BPA easement crosses the site east to west on the northerly portion of the site. Topographically, the site is relatively flat with a 16- to 20-foot depression in the northern portion of the property. It is located within a Category I Aquifer Recharge Area. There is a High Groundwater Hazard Area in the northern portion of the site, extending to the west and north off-site. Exhibit 1; Attachments G and N. 6. Surrounding parcels include the Alpine Sand Gravel mine to the south and west and a vacant 13.75-acre property to the north. Chambers Creek is approximately 25 to 45 feet north of the subject property; it is approximately 350 feet from proposed improvements. The Olympia urban growth area abuts the north property line of the subject property. Exhibit 1. 7. The RRR 1/5 zone requires a minimum lot size of five acres, maximum building height of 35 feet, and a maximum impervious surface area of 60%. The RRR 1/5 zone restricts maximum building site coverage. In the context of special uses, it defers to the maximum size established in the Special Uses chapter of the zoning code. TCC 20.09A.050. Pursuant to the use-specific development standards applicable to special uses, nonresidential nonconforming uses in the rural zones may be expanded in area by 50%. Thus, the existing 44,000 square foot building may expand to a maximum size of 66,000 square feet. TCC 20.54.070(23.5); Exhibit 1. 8. Proposed site improvements include removal of the existing industrial building and detached structure (labeled "house" on Attachment G, Sheet 2 of 7) to be replaced with its replacement with a new industrial building with a total foot print of 62,980 square feet. 3 Also proposed are paved parking and drive areas, stormwater infrastructure, an upgraded on-site septic system, connection to the City of Olympia Group A water 3 The figure 62,980 square feet is from the narrative at Attachment D. The site plat at Attachment G Sheet 1 of 7 says that new building would have a 57,500 square foot footprint and a 2,500 square foot second floor, for a total floor area of 60,000 square feet. The Examiner notes that both figures are within the maximum expansion allowed at TCC 20.54.070(23.5). Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 4 of 14

system 4, abandonment of an existing domestic well, landscaping, and related improvements. Proposed production processes include manufacture from raw steel, CNC machine laser cutting, router and metal forming, welding, an automated powder coating system, assembly, and shipping to customers. The finished facility would continue to use the one, existing paved site access from Rixie Road and would be enclosed by a fence with a sliding gate at the driveway entrance. Exhibit 1: Attachments B, C, D, G, N, T, and V; See Attachment G, Sheet 1 of 7; Setina Testimony. Having reviewed the preliminary plan set, Planning Staff submitted that as proposed and conditioned, the improvements would satisfy all zoning development standards, including setbacks and bulk requirements. Exhibit 1. 9. The new on-site septic system has been designed to serve approximately 65 employees, with a design capacity of 975 gallons per day. It would include two 1,500 gallon septic tanks and a 1,500 gallon septic pump chamber. The drainfield would contain four laterals. A reserve area is proposed to the west of the drainfield. Exhibit 1, Attachment D. 10. According to Planning Staff, the City of Olympia had agreed to provide domestic water to the expanded facility. Exhibit 1. 11. A total of 163 parking spaces are shown in the materials. Exhibit 1; Attachment G, Sheet 1 of 7. The off-street parking standards of the County Code require one parking space for every 500 square feet of building area. TCC 20.44.030(f)(ii). At approximately 63,000 square feet, the new facility would require 126 parking spaces. Exhibit 1. An Applicant representative testified that the Applicant does not intend to build all 163 spaces; the site presently contains 62% impervious surface area and must be reduced to a maximum of 60% impervious surface area to comply with RRR 1/5 zoning standards. Some parking spaces would be sacrificed to achieve this. Hatton Testimony. 12. The Thurston County zoning ordinance establishes minimum requirements for landscaping and screening between incompatible land uses in order to safeguard privacy and to protect the aesthetic assets of the community. Industrial and commercial uses are considered incompatible with residential uses and therefore they are required to provide a minimum five-foot landscaped buffer along public rights-of-way and adjacent to residential uses. When adjacent to residential uses, the buffer is required to be planted with site-obscuring trees and shrubs. TCC 20.45.040. The record contains a landscape plan depicting a densely planted landscaped buffer along the Rixie Road frontage, the southern property line, the western property line, and along the northern boundary of the paved parking area. The northern portion of the site containing the BPA power transmission easement and remaining areas that would not be developed with paved surfaces are not proposed to be screened. The majority of the landscaped buffer is depicted as being planted either with closely placed Arborvitae or with Fraser's Photinia. Exhibit 1, Attachment H. Planning Staff submitted that the proposal would comply with the landscape requirements of TCC 20.45. Exhibit 1. 4 An Applicant representative testified that the existing facilities are already served by City of Olympia water and approval would not result in any new urban utilities being extended to the site. Hatton Testimony. Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 5 of 14

13. The Applicant submitted a professionally prepared traffic impact analysis (TIA) looking at trips generated by the expanded facility. Using trip generation data from the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, the TIA concluded that the existing industrial facility, at 44,244 square feet, generated an average of 161 weekday trips, including 31 PM peak hour trips. The new 62,980 square foot facility, with credit for the traffic from the existing use, is project to generate an additional 80 average daily vehicle trips, including 15 new PM peak hour trips on average. The TIA projected the distribution of the net new PM peak hour trips and considered their impact on the intersection most likely to be affected. Existing delays at the study intersections are mild, according to the TIA, and would continue to be mild with the project's new trips, with no study intersection falling below a level of service (LOS) B. The TIA also reviewed whether the site driveway provides adequate sight distance for safe entrances and exits; no safety concerns were identified with either the existing condition or with projected future traffic. The proposal is not anticipated to have a significant impact on the local roadway system, and no mitigation was proposed. Exhibit 1, Attachment T. 14. The Applicant commissioned a geotechnical report assessing subsurface conditions of the site to consider the feasibility and best management of stormwater on-site. Subsurface exploration revealed groundwater at depths of 16 to 17 feet. The report considered the likelihood of ground rupture, soil liquefaction, seismic compression, and lateral spreading, and also evaluated stormwater infiltration rates consistent with the County's Drainage Design and Erosion Control Manual (DDECM, 2009). The report found that the proposed use of the site was feasible from a geotechnical standpoint and opined that stormwater infiltration in the northern portion of the site would be feasible. It concluded with recommendations for earthwork, clearing, subgrade preparation, groundwater management, erosion control, wet weather work, and other considerations. Exhibit 1, Attachment U. 15. The Applicant submitted a professionally prepared preliminary drainage report. As proposed, approximately 4.89 acres of the finished site would be paved (or covered by structure), and the remaining 1.43 acres would remain in the natural condition. Stormwater runoff from paved areas of the site, excluding buildings, and landscaped areas would be collected by filter media catch basins, where water quality treatment would be provided, and discharged to infiltration facilities. Roof runoff would also be piped to infiltration trenches. The infiltration facilities would be in the northern portion of the site, at least partially within the existing 10 to 20 foot deep kettle depression. The proposed internal piped conveyance system would be sized for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event. Exhibit 1, Attachments U and V. 16. The Development Review Services section of the County's Public Works, Roads and Transportation Services Department reviewed the project for access, traffic, and stormwater requirements. County Staff accepted the Applicant's TIA and preliminary drainage report. The building and all impervious surfaces were reviewed for compliance with the Thurston County Drainage Design & Erosion Control Manual. The existing access point was found to comply with applicable Thurston County Road Standards. Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 6 of 14

Public Works Staff recommended approval with conditions. Exhibit 1; Attachment M; Saint Testimony. 17. Staff from the Environmental Health Division (EHD) of the Thurston County Public Health and Social Services Department reviewed the proposal for compliance with applicable public health standards. Noting the proposed industrial facility would not use, store, or dispose of hazardous materials on-site, EHD Staff determined that the waste water flow rate for the proposed new septic system on the 6.39-acre site would be equivalent to 152.6 gallons per acre per day, which is well below the maximum allowable wastewater flow of 900 gallons per day per acre in a Category I Aquifer Recharge Area. EHD's review indicated that the proposed septic drainfields are more than 100 feet from the High Groundwater Hazard Area in the northern portion of the property and off-cite. Four wells identified on neighboring parcels are set back more than 200 feet from the shared property lines. Staff also noted that the proposed stormwater facility would satisfy applicable setbacks from the on-site septic components. EHD Staff recommended approval subject to conditions. Exhibit 1, Attachment N; Peebles Testimony. 18. The Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE) submitted comments containing general information about toxics clean up, the requirement to use clean fill, promoting recycling of reusable materials from the structures proposed for demolition, and noting the proposal may be subject to the DOE Construction Stormwater General Permit. Exhibit 1, Attachments O and P. 19. Representatives of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) conducted a site visit to review the property for the presence of Mazama pocket gopher, which was recently listed as endangered pursuant to the federal Endangered Species Act. USFWS representatives found no gophers on-site. Planning Staff and an Applicant representative both indicated that the Applicant is aware of the requirement to comply with federal law relating to endangered species. Staff recommended a condition of approval to promote Applicant/Operator awareness of and compliance with federal law. Exhibit 1; Kantas Testimony; Hatton Testimony. 20. The Nisqually Indian Tribe reviewed the proposal and indicated that the Tribe had no concerns or information regarding the property. The Tribe requested to be informed of any inadvertent discoveries of archeological resources or human remains. Exhibit 1, Attachment Q. 21. Thurston County acted as lead agency for reviewing the environmental impacts of the project pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). The County's SEPA Responsible Official issued a determination of non-significance (MDNS) on December 15, 2015 which was not challenged and became final. Exhibit 1; Exhibit 1, Attachment K; Kantas Testimony. 22. Notice of application was mailed to owners of all parcels within 500 feet of the site on September 1, 2015. One public comment was submitted on the application with concerns regarding the speed limit on Rich Road and a request for a sidewalk extension to the site. Exhibit 1, Attachment J; Exhibit 1. In review of that comment, the Public Works Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 7 of 14

Department determined as proposed and conditioned the proposal complies with the Thurston County Road standards. Exhibit 1; Saint Testimony. 23. Notice of the public hearing was mailed to owners of all parcels within 500 feet of the site on December 18, 2015, posted on-site on December 23, 2015, and published in The Olympian on December 25, 2015. Exhibit 1, Attachment A; Exhibit 2. The neighboring property owner to the north testified in support of the proposal, stating that the proposal would be a benefit to the area and an improvement over the existing condition. Hutson Testimony. 24. Planning Staff submitted that the proposal would create jobs for residents of rural Thurston County. Considering testimony at hearing and all submitted information, Staff submitted that, as proposed and conditioned, the proposal would be consistent with the Thurston County Comprehensive Plan, critical areas ordinance, health codes, the stormwater requirements, and the County zoning ordinance. Planning Staff recommended approval subject to conditions. Exhibit 1; Kantas Testimony. The Applicant waived objection to the recommended conditions of approval. Hatton Testimony. CONCLUSIONS Jurisdiction The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to hear and decide this special use permit application pursuant to Thurston County Code 2.06.010 and 20.54.015 and to Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 36.70.970. Special Use Permit Criteria for Review The Hearing Examiner may approve an application for a special use permit only if the following general standards set forth in TCC 20.54.040 are satisfied: A. Plans, Regulations, Laws. The proposed use at the specified location shall comply with the Thurston County Comprehensive Plan, and all applicable federal, state, regional, and Thurston County laws or plans. B. Underlying Zoning District. The proposed use shall comply with the general purposes and intent of the applicable zoning district regulations and subarea plans. Open space, lot, setback and bulk requirements shall be no less than that specified for the zoning district in which the proposed use is located unless specifically provided otherwise in this chapter. C. Location. No application for a special use shall be approved unless a specific finding is made that the proposed special use is appropriate in the location for which it is proposed. This finding shall be based on the following criteria: 1. Impact. The proposed use shall not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent property, neighborhood character, natural environment, traffic Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 8 of 14

conditions, parking, public property or facilities, or other matters affecting the public health, safety and welfare. However, if the proposed use is a public facility or utility deemed to be of overriding public benefit, and if measures are taken and conditions imposed to mitigate adverse effects to the extent reasonably possible, the permit may be granted even though said adverse effects may occur. 2. Services. The use will be adequately served by and will not impose an undue burden on any of the improvements, facilities, utilities, or services existing or planned to serve the area. Use Specific Criteria Specific standards for Nonresidential, Nonconforming use in the Rural Area (TCC 20.54.070(23.5)): 1. Purpose. To provide limited expansion of isolated commercial or industrial businesses, legally established on or before July 1, 1990, that may not be principally designed to serve the existing or projected rural population and nonresidential uses, but do provide job opportunities for rural residents. Such expansion shall meet all of the standards listed below. Conversion of such uses may be considered pursuant to Section 20.56.060. This special use category applies exclusively to nonconforming uses for which a special use category does not already exist under this chapter. 2. Standards. a. Expansion is limited to a maximum of fifty percent of the existing building square footage, or use area if no structure is involved, as of July 1, 1990, provided that all of the standards below are met. b. The expansion will occur on the same lot upon which the existing use is located. c. The expansion is visually compatible with the surrounding rural area. d. Detrimental impacts to adjacent properties will not be increased or intensified. e. The expansion does not result in a formerly small operation dominating the vicinity. f. The expansion will not constitute new urban development in the rural area. g. Public services and facilities are limited to those necessary to serve the isolated nonresidential use and are provided in a manner that does not permit low-density sprawl. h. The design standards of the underlying zoning district and all other applicable regulations are met. Conclusions Based on Findings 1. With conditions mandating compliance with requirements identified by the Environmental Health, Public Works, and the Resource Stewardship Departments, the proposed use at the proposed location complies with all applicable laws and plans. Findings 8, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, and 24. Setina Manufacturing SUPT, No. 2015104369 page 9 of 14

2. The proposal would comply with the minimum parcel size, building height, setbacks, and parking, landscaping/screening, and other zoning bulk development standards. Relating to the nonconforming use, the proposal conforms to the restrictions on expansion of legal nonconforming uses adopted in the County's special use provisions and is therefore allowed. In maintaining an existing legal nonconforming use and providing jobs to rural County residents, the proposal would comply with the purpose of the RRR 1/5 zoning district and special use provisions use-specific criteria. Findings 2, 3, 12, 13, and 24. 3. The proposed use is appropriate on the site, which has held a nonconforming legal industrial use since zoning was adopted. The proposed fencing and landscaping would screen views of the site from the public right-of-way, as well as from all surrounding parcels. The northern 1.43 acres of the site would remain in a natural condition. The record demonstrates no significant traffic impacts would result from expanding the facility. The geotechnical report and preliminary drainage plan show that infiltration of stormwater runoff from all roof and impervious surface areas is feasible and would not conflict with surrounding uses, water supplies, or critical areas. As proposed and conditioned, the on-site septic would be designed and built to comply with standards applicable to industrial uses in a critical aquifer recharge area. No hazardous materials would be used, stored, or manufactured on-site. Conditions recommended by Public Works, Environmental Health, and Resource Stewardship Staff would ensure compliance with applicable County standards, therefore avoiding adverse impacts to surrounding parcels and uses. Findings 4, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, and 24. 4. The expanded industrial use would be served by appropriate on-site septic and connection (potentially existing) to City of Olympia Group A community water. Only mild increases in traffic are projected. There is no evidence in the record of excess demand for or adverse effect on public services. Findings 8, 10, 14, and 24. DECISION Based on the preceding findings and conclusions, the requested special use permit to enlarge an existing 44,000 square foot industrial building to 63,000 square feet with on-site parking, landscaping, and stormwater improvements at 6631 Rixie Road SE, Olympia, Washington is GRANTED subject to the following conditions: The following Environmental Health Code related conditions shall be met prior to final occupancy approval: 1.
