Chapter 17.55 BINDING SITE PLAN

The purpose of this chapter is to establish procedures regulating binding site plans to provide an optional alternative procedure for the orderly and efficient division of land into lots, tracts, or parcels as provided in RCW 58.17.040(4), (5), or (7); to promote the general health, safety, and welfare; and to substantially comply with the provisions of RCW 58.17.035 and 58.17.040. The procedures specified herein are an alternative to other methods of subdividing land. Because it is optional, an applicant may, but need not elect to, use the binding site plan concept and the procedures stated herein for commercial and industrial development. The binding site plan procedures of this chapter shall have principal application to commercial and industrial parks. (Ord. 737 § 2, 2018)

17.55.020 Procedures.

The procedures and requirements set forth in this chapter and TMC Title 14 shall be followed in submission and approval of binding site plans. It is intended that, to the extent possible, binding plan reviews will be processed simultaneously with any applications for rezones, planned developments, conditional use permits, and similar quasi-judicial or administrative actions that may be required for the same development. If requested by the applicant, the town may process an annexation concurrently with a binding site plan application using the procedures in TMC Title 14. (Ord. 737 § 2, 2018)

17.55.030 General conditions and requirements.

(1) Approved binding site plans shall be filed for the record in the Okanogan County auditor’s office.

(2) When a commercial or industrial binding site plan authorizes a sale or transfer of a lot, parcel, or tract, the binding site plan and all of its requirements shall be legally enforceable on the purchaser or other person acquiring ownership of the lot, parcel, or tract. The sale or transfer of such lot, parcel, or tract in violation of the binding site plan, or without obtaining binding site plan approval, shall be a violation of this title, subject to the penalties and enforcement provided in TMC 17.50.010. The sale or other transfer of ownership of a lot, parcel, or tract of a commercial or industrial binding site plan shall be filed for record in the county auditor’s office.

(3) Alteration of an approved binding site plan shall be processed subject to all the procedures and requirements of this chapter.

(4) The binding site plan shall make provisions for roads, streets, alleys, the extension of municipal utilities (sewer and water), drainage ways, other public ways, or other municipal improvements as specified in Chapters 17.35 and 17.40 TMC and as deemed necessary by the town at the time of the binding site plan approval. All such provisions shall be designed in conformance with the town of Twisp development standards manual.

(5) The binding site plan shall have access to an existing dedicated street as specified in TMC 17.40.030. There shall be access to all parcels, lots, or tracts.

(6) The binding site plan shall comply with all zoning, fire, and health regulations.

(7) The binding site plan shall be consistent with the town’s comprehensive plan.

(8) Every decision or recommendation made under this chapter by the town council or planning commission, including final approval, shall be in compliance with the requirements of Chapter 14.05 TMC.

(9) The binding site plan shall provide for irrigation water rights-of-way as now enacted or hereafter amended and shall be approved by the irrigation district.

(10) The applicant shall be responsible to reimburse the town for administrative costs incurred by the town to review, process and approve, modify or disapprove the binding site plan submitted. The applicant shall be responsible for all engineering, legal and other consulting fees and costs incurred by the town to the extent said fees and costs exceed the application fees, and the applicant shall be advised of those costs by the town clerk. The applicant shall pay such fees as billed by the town clerk. A failure to pay within 30 days any such fee billed by the town clerk shall result in a suspension of the processing of the binding site plan on the basis that such failure to pay evidences an abandonment of the binding site plan application. The applicant shall pay such costs in full before the final plat is recorded. (Ord. 737 § 2, 2018)

17.55.040 Preapplication conference.

(1) When a person contemplates an application for a binding site plan for a parcel(s) of land, said person shall schedule a preapplication conference in accordance with TMC 14.05.025(2). (Ord. 737 § 2, 2018)

Pursuant to RCW 58.17.110, as it now exists or is hereafter amended, the town council shall inquire into the public use and interest proposed to be served by the establishment of the binding site plan and dedication.

If the town council finds that the proposed binding site plan makes appropriate provisions for public health, safety and general welfare and for such open spaces, drainage ways, streets, alleys, other public ways, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks, playgrounds, sites for schools and school grounds, and that the public use and interest will be served by the development of such binding site plan, then it shall be approved.
