AN ®R®INANCE of the city council of
the city of Kent, Washington, finding that the
Riverbend Gateway project area is an
appropriate area for designation as a
"Residential Targeted Area" as defined by
Chapter 84.14 Revised Code of Washington,
designating the proposed Riverbend Gateway
project area as a Residential Targeted Area
within the Urban Center established by the
city council's Resolution 1938 for multi-
family limited property tax exemptions;
amending the Kent City Code to include the
Riverbend Gateway project as a defined
Residential Targeted Area; and amending
the parking requirements for Residential
Targeted areas outside the city's downtown
core.
RECITALS
A. Due to the mandates in Chapter 84.14 Revised Code of
Washington (RCW), the city council elects under Kent City Code
2.57.040(B) to consider this matter directly, rather than have efforts
duplicated by the Land Use and Planning Board.
B. Chapter 84.14 RCW provides for exemption from ad valorem
property taxation for qualifying multifamily housing located in Residential
Targeted Areas within Urban Centers as defined in that chapter and
authorizes cities to adopt necessary procedures to implement the state
legislation.
1 Multifamily Tax Exemption -
For the 14iverbenei Gateway site
C. Chapter 84. 141 RCW requires that Residential Targeted Areas
be located within Urban Centers as established by the city Council. By its
Resolution 1938, the city council established an Urban Center near the
city's Riverbend Golf Complex, as shown on the map attached as Exhibit
A. The Urban Center designation required under this section is separate
and distinct from the urban center designation associated with the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
D. The City of Kent is a designated "Urban Growth Area" under
the state's Growth Management Act.
E. The city has identified the Riverbend Gateway/Colony Park
site within this urban center as appropriate for selection as a "Residential
Targeted Area" under that chapter. The boundaries of the Riverbend
Gateway/Colony Park site can be generally described as a portion of
parcel 2322049011 within the City's Riverbend Golf complex together with
the adjoining Colony Park apartment building, bordered approximately by
Meeker Street to the north, the Green River to the west and south, and
the Riverbend Golf Complex driving range to the east, as more specifically
shown in exhibit B.
F. The council selected this area as a potential Residential
Targeted Area because it appears to lack sufficient available, desirable,
and convenient residential housing to meet the needs of the public who
would likely live in this urban center, if affordable, desirable, attractive,
and livable places to live were available.
G. On December 13, 2016, the city council, at a regular council
meeting, and after having first provided all required notice, held a public
2 Multifamily Tax Exemption -
For the Riverbend Gateway site
hearing to receive comment regarding whether the Riverbend Gateway
Project area should be designated a Residential Targeted Area.
H. After hearing all public comment at the December 13
hearing, y council has determined that designation of this site is
appropriate for designation as a Residential Targeted Area, potentially
qualifying for multi -family property tax exemptions.
I. The City has adopted a project eligibility criterion requiring
parking to be located in garages under the buildings or underground. This
criterion is appropriate to ensure projects in Kent's downtown Urban
Center are consistent with City's goals and vision for this area. As the
program will now be extended beyond the downtown core, relaxing the
structured parking requirement is appropriate.
J. The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) responsible
official has determined that the proposed Kent City Code amendments are
procedural in nature, and further SEPA analysis is not required for these
local code amendments
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT,
WASHINGTON, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. -Findings • Residential Targeted Area Designation.
A. The area shown on Exhibit A is, for the purposes of Chapter 84.14
RCW, a designated Urban Center.
3 Multifamily Tax Exemption -
For the Riverbend Gateway site
B. The area has insufficient available, desirable, affordable, and
convenient residential housing, and if housing were available, the public
would be likely to live in this area.
C. The designation of this Residential Targeted Area would encourage
increased residential opportunities and stimulate construction of new
multifamily housing that will increase and improve residential housing
opportunities in the Urban Center.
D. The Recitals listed in this ordinance are also incorporated as
additional findings forming the basis for this designation.
SECTION 2. -Residential Targeted Area Criteria Met. Based on
the Findings stated above, the area proposed as a Residential Targeted
Area, as described in this ordinance and as shown on Exhibit B, meets the
criteria in subsections (1) through (3) of RCW 84.14.040.
SECTION 3. -Residential Targeted Area Desi nc�ated. The area
shown on Exhibit B and as described in this ordinance is now designated a
Residential Targeted Area under Chapter 84.14 RCW. New multi -family
residential development proposed for construction within this area will be
able to apply for a limited multi -family property tax exemption pursuant
to Chapter 84.14 RCW and under Chapter 3.25 of the Kent City Code.
SECTION 4. -Amendment. Because of the addition of the
Riverbend Gateway project Residential Targeted Area, Section 3.25 of the
Kent City Code, entitled "MUltifamily dwelling tax exemptions," is
amended as follows.

Mr. B:
I have posted the public hearing notice onto the City's website, distributed it through the City Council distribution list,
and posted it on the bulletin board in our lobby. Pam Mottram indicated that I should also send notice to the owners of
the Colony Park Apartments, The King County Parcel viewer does not have a taxpayer listed. Should I just send the
notice to the apartments to the address provided by Matt?
