Land Use and Planning Board Land Use Regular August 12, 2024
Meeting Kent, Washington
Minutes
There was a lively question and answer period with the members and staff.
The first question posed to the Board Members was whether they support a
500' or 880' buffer spacing between behavioral health facilities and schools.
The majority all said they support 880'. There were also questions as to
whether a daycare or pre-school could open within the 880' buffer. Kristen
and Lindsay stated that that is not the intention of the code and when writing
the code, special attention will be paid to this.
Appropriate zoning districts was also discussed. Some members felt that
siting the facilities in Mid to High density might pose a risk to residents who 0
live in those areas and they could disproportionally affect lower income 0
households. Kristen Holdsworth offered a scenario where the Enhanced U)
w
Service Facilities and the Intensive Behavioral Health Treatment facilities be N
split and fall under different zoning guidelines. There was agreement among w
the board members that this was a good solution to siting the less intense o
facilities within the Mid to High density zones. 2
