shorter time period if the review authority determines that it is in the public interest to <br /> authorize a shorter period of time in which to establish the use. The planning department <br /> may authorize one extension of time for a period of not more than one year if it can be <br /> found that circumstances beyond the control of the applicant prevented the establishment of <br /> the use. <br /> 3. Appeals. <br /> a. Review Process II. The planning director's Review Process II determination may be <br /> appealed as provided by Title 15, Local Project Review Procedures. <br /> b.

Adaptive Reuse of Non-Residential Buildings in Residential Zones. <br /> 1. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to allow for adaptive reuse of non-residential <br /> buildings in residential zones that are functionally obsolete in order to improve the economic <br /> feasibility of a property by considering uses that are not otherwise permitted, but which, if <br /> properly designed and managed, would not create unacceptable impacts on surrounding <br /> properties or the immediate vicinity in general. This process differs from the unlisted use <br /> process listed in EMC Section 19.02.080 in that uses that are not specifically authorized in the <br /> underlying residential zone may be considered using the process described herein. <br /> 2. Procedures. Any request to allow a use that is not otherwise permitted in the underlying <br /> residential zone shall be processed as a special property use. If the property is in or within 500 <br /> feet of a single family residential zone,the application shall be reviewed using Review Process <br /> III. If the property is more than 500 feet from a single family residential zone but is in or within <br /> 150 feet of a multiple family residential zone, the application shall be reviewed using Review <br /> Process II. If the property is outside a historic overlay zone but listed on a historic register or as <br /> a contributing structure in a historic register district, the historical commission shall review the <br /> proposal and make a recommendation to the hearing examiner using Review Process III. <br /> 3. Circumstances. The city may allow a use in a residential zone that is not specifically allowed <br /> in that zone if it is necessary to encourage adaptive reuse of a building under the following <br /> circumstances: <br /> a. It is unlikely that the primary building on the subject property could be preserved if only <br /> uses permitted in the underlying zone were allowed. <br /> b. Allowing a different use would enhance the character of the building and immediate <br /> vicinity. <br /> c. The use would not have a detrimental effect upon surrounding properties or the <br /> immediate vicinity. <br /> 4. Uses. The following uses may be considered for adaptive reuse of an existing building in a <br /> residential zone: <br /> a. Dwelling units. Density based on underlying zoning plus one additional dwelling unit; <br /> b. Assisted living facilities; <br /> c. Libraries; <br /> 3 <br />
