Sections:
20.93.020 Planned Area 3 official zoning map designation.
20.93.030 Permitted uses, standards and special regulations.
20.93.040 Additional site development standards.
20.93.050 Environmental review and mitigation of impacts.
20.93.010 Purpose and scope.
A. The purpose of this chapter is to:
1. Implement the City’s Comprehensive Plan policies for Planned Area 3 in the Ballinger neighborhood.
2. Define zoning that replaces the regulations of Chapter 20.50 SMC, Subchapters 1, 2, and 4 with new standards for the scale, character, configuration and location of development in the zone and new provisions to ensure compatibility and transition to adjacent single-family neighborhoods.
3. If provisions of this chapter conflict with provisions elsewhere in the Shoreline Municipal Code, the provisions of this chapter shall apply. When it is unclear which regulations apply, then the presumption shall be that the regulations of this chapter take precedence with the ultimate determination to be made by the Director. (Ord. 598 § 6 (Exh. 5), 2011).
20.93.020 Planned Area 3 official zoning map designation.
In order to implement the Comprehensive Plan policies, the Aldercrest Planned Area 3 (“PA 3”) zone is adopted as shown on the City’s official zoning map. (Ord. 598 § 6 (Exh. 5), 2011).

SR 1 – Vehicular access shall be from both 25th Avenue NE and NE 200th Street. An easement across a portion of the 25th Avenue NE driveway shall be recorded to allow shared access to potential future parking on the City park parcel. The easement shall have 50 feet of frontage on 25th Avenue NE, abut the City park parcel and be at least 120 feet in an east-west dimension.
SR 2 – At least six contiguous acres of land, contained within the southern half of the parcel including at least 375 linear feet of frontage on 25th Avenue NE, and including the entire southern boundary of the parcel, shall be dedicated to the City of Shoreline for public park purposes. Dedication of the park parcel to the City may occur at any time after it is platted but shall occur prior to issuance of certificates of occupancy for development on the non-park parcel. Dedication of park land shall be in lieu of payment of any current or future park impact fees. The cost of any future development of land dedicated for park shall be borne by the City.
SR 3 – At least seven contiguous acres of land, contained within the southern half of the parcel including at least 375 linear feet of frontage on 25th Avenue NE, and including the entire southern boundary of the parcel, shall be dedicated to the City of Shoreline for public park purposes. Dedication of the park parcel to the City may occur at any time after it is platted but shall occur prior to issuance of certificates of occupancy for development on the non-park parcel. Dedication of park land shall be in lieu of payment of any current or future park impact fees. The cost of any future development of land dedicated for park shall be borne by the City.
SR 4 – A minimum 10-foot-wide public pedestrian access easement with a minimum eight-foot-wide pathway shall be improved and dedicated to the City, connecting NE 200th Street to the public park. The easement must be in a location, conveyed in a form and the pathway improved to standards acceptable to the City of Shoreline.
SR 5 – Maximum building height within 100 feet of R6 zones to the east and south is 45 feet above average existing grade consistent with SMC 20.50.050.
SR 6 – In order to provide a buffer to the single-family neighborhoods to the east and south, 80 percent of all healthy significant trees which have any portion of their trunk within 25 feet of R6 zoned lands shall be flagged with surveyor tape and protected with a temporary chain link fence to be placed at the dripline prior to issuance of any development permits. All such healthy significant trees are to be retained. The 80 percent tree retention standard shall be measured within each 160-foot-long north-south segment of the buffer area. A tree survey and arborist report shall be submitted with application for any development permits. The portion of this buffer which lies within 160 feet of NE 200th Street shall be supplemented with Type II landscape materials per SMC 20.50.460(B).
SR 7 – No grading or heavy equipment shall be permitted on the site until after dedication of the parcel to the City. Applicant may propose, and the City may authorize, limited site grading of the park site concurrently with the grading and development of the remaining portion of the PA 3 zone if such grading is necessary to achieve proper drainage and access controls for both parcels.
SR 8 – A special use permit is required for any park improvements.
SR 9 – A special use permit is required for institutional uses. The standards and special regulations for other residential uses in this zone shall control unless specifically modified as a design departure under the administrative design review process.
SR 10 – For purposes of the PA 3 zone, “institutional uses” are all educational facilities, places of worship, and conference centers. Retail or restaurant uses are not considered institutional uses but may be included as accessory uses to the primary institutional use. (Ord. 598 § 6 (Exh. 5), 2011).

20.93.050 Environmental review and mitigation of impacts.
The environmental review for development permits pursuant to Chapter 43.21C RCW shall address both on-site and off-site impacts, including but not limited to impacts on the City’s road network, parks, and other municipal services. (Ord. 598 § 6 (Exh. 5), 2011).
