Dear Island Landowne: :
The purpose ef this letter is to provide you with information regarding
the recent zoning changes on Bio Island , and how these changes may
affect your property .
The new RS Seasonal Recreational zoning regulations were established
by City Council adoption of Ordinance ��246 on December 30 , 1982 . This
action also ended the development moratorium that had been in effect
since November 9 , 1981 .
A summary of the ordinance is attached . If you are interested , a
complete text of the ordinance is also available for a nominal charge
of $3 . 00 to defer printing and mailing costs .
Your property is identified in the ordinance by the Record Lot �tumber
shown above and on the attached blue page . This identification is part
of a special section that inventories lot by lot the ownership patterns
aad existing uses of island propert_y . Based on this record , the ordinance
then "grar.dfathers" building rights for these Record Lots by making them
eligible for lot area variances . This means that for the first time
even if your lot is less than five acres (or two acres under the previous
ordinance) that you raay now build a new seasonal cabin , or if you already
have a cabin, that it may continue to be used , improved , added-onto or
replaced with a new cabin, subject to building permits and setback
regulations , etc . , but without questioning its use for building purposes ,
and without requiring any special City Council review.
In order for you to automatically receive the benefits of the lot area
variance , you should review and complete the following before July 1 ,
1983 :
1 . Please verify the Record Lot informat:on on the attached blue page
and notify the City if there is a problem or a change .

2 . If the Record Lot information is complete , please sign , have
notarized and return the white Variance Resolution . State law
requires that all zoning variances be recorded with the County
Recorder in resolution form. Returning this resolution is optional ,
but if you choose not to do so , you may be required to pay a fee
and file a formal variance application in the future if you ever
plan to do any building on the property . There is no fee for having
this automatic variance recorded at this time .
3 . If your Record Lot consists of two or more separate tax parcels , a
green form for requesting a combined assessment is enclosed . Please
sign and return this to the City to allow your tax recorc�s to be
changed into one parcel consistent with the zonin� and to assure
the most favorable tax rate possible .
4 . A conditional use permit issued by the City Council is required
for certain land uses in the RS District , including the following
residential uses :
a) If you use or have used your cabin FOR MORE THAN 180 DAYS/YEAR.
b) If you have MORE THAN ONE CABIN on your property .
Refer to the enclosed yellow sheet for a definition of these uses
including a description of when a special permit is or is not required .
If you wish to apply for a permit , mark the yellow page and return it
to the City. We will send you the appropriate application form by
return mail .
A postage-paid envelope is enclosed for your use in returning the above
forms to the City . If you have any questions about this , please call
Alan Olson or Jeanne Mabusth at 473-7357 .
Cn behalf of the City Council and Planning Commission , I want to take
this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you whose interest and
participation this past year has helped so much in the completion of
this planning process . I have certainly enjoyed meeting all of you and
learning so much about your island . I hope this last step can be kept
as simple as possible so that your property rights can be correctly
recorded for your future benefit .
Sincerely ,
�
