Body
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
SECTION 1. Findings.
A. Ordinance 19030 established updated regulations for winery, brewery, distillery facilities and remote tasting rooms in unincorporated King County.
B. After a lengthy litigation process, on September 19, 2024, the Washington state Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, published an opinion reinstating a January 2022 order from the Growth Management Hearings Board that invalidated Ordinance 19030, Sections 12 through 29, Section 31, and Map Amendments 1 and 2.
C. Ordinance 19030 created a licensing system to assist with enforcement, which the Growth Management Hearings Board left in place. While the Board’s litigation was pending at the Court of Appeals, the King County Hearing Examiner considered several preemption-based challenges to the licensing provisions. Although the Hearing Examiner determined that he was unable to resolve the core constitutional issues because it was beyond his jurisdiction, he engaged in a lengthy analysis of applicable authorities. The Hearing Examiner concluded that a local license for alcohol-related sales, distribution and premises '...sounds like the local power the State explicitly withdrew in RCW 66.08.120.'
D. This ordinance amends the provisions adopted by Ordinance 19030. Where provisions adopted by Ordinance 19030 are unchanged, they are not included in this ordinance, and the council's intent is that they remain in effect.
E. The council finds that this ordinance complies with the decision of the Washington state Supreme Court, as well as potential preemption issues with the licensing system.
SECTION 2. Ordinance 1888, Article III, Section 5, as amended, and K.C.C. 6.01.150 are hereby amended to read as follows:
A. The office of the hearing examiner is designated to hear appeals by parties aggrieved by actions of the director pursuant to any business license ordinance. For appeals under K.C.C. chapter 6.65 the office of the hearing examiner is designated to hear such appeals unless a different party is designated by the director. The examiner may adopt reasonable rules or regulations for conducting its business. Copies of all rules and regulations adopted by the examiner shall be delivered to the director, who shall make them freely accessible to the public. All decisions and findings of the examiner shall be rendered to the appellant in writing, with a copy to the director.
B. For-hire transportation appeals under K.C.C. chapter 6.64 ((and adult beverage businesses appeals under K.C.C. chapter 6.74)) shall be filed in accordance with K.C.C. 20.22.080 and the hearing process conducted in accordance with K.C.C. chapter 20.22. Appeals under K.C.C. chapter 6.65 shall be filed in accordance with K.C.C. 6.65.450 and the hearing process conducted in accordance with that same section. Subsections C. through H. of this section do not apply to this subsection B.
C. Any person entitled to service under K.C.C. 6.01.130 may appeal any notice and order or any action of the director by filing at the office of the director within seven days from the date of service of such order, a written appeal containing;
1. A heading in the words: "Before the Office of the Hearing Examiner";
2. A caption reading: "Appeal of ........" giving the names of all appellants participating in the appeal;
3. A brief statement setting forth the legal interest of each of the appellants in the business or entertainment involved in the notice and order;
4. A brief statement in concise language of the specific order or action protested, together with any material facts claimed to support the contentions of the appellant;
5. A brief statement in concise language of the relief sought, and the reasons why it is claimed the protested order or action should be reversed, modified, or otherwise set aside;
6. The signatures of all parties named as appellants, and their official mailing addresses; and
7. The verification (by declaration under penalty of perjury) of at least one appellant as to the truth of the matters stated in the appeal.
D. As soon as practicable after receiving the written appeal, the examiner shall fix a date, time, and place for the hearing of the appeal. The date shall be neither less than ten days nor more than sixty days from the date the appeal was filed with the director. Written notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be given at least ten days before the date of the hearing to each appellant by the examiner either by causing a copy of the notice to be delivered to the appellant personally or by mailing a copy thereof, postage prepaid, addressed to the appellant at the appellant’s address shown on the appeal.
E. At the hearing the appellant shall be entitled to appear in person, ((and)) be represented by counsel, and offer such evidence as is pertinent and material to the action of the director.
F. Only those matters or issues specifically raised by the appellant in the written notice of appeal shall be considered in the hearing of the appeal.
G. Failure of any person to file an appeal in accordance with this section shall constitute a waiver of the person's right to an administrative hearing and adjudication of the notice and order, or any portion thereof.
H. Enforcement of any notice and order of the director shall be stayed during the pendency of an appeal therefrom that is properly and timely filed.
NEW SECTION. SECTION 3. There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 21A.06 a new section to read as follows:

2. For the purposes of this section, previous similar code violations that can serve as a basis for a higher level of civil penalties include violations of the same chapter of the King County Code. Any citation, stop work order, or notice and order previously issued by the department shall not constitute a previous code violation for the purposes of this section if that stop work order or notice and order was appealed and subsequently reversed.
B. The penalties assessed pursuant to this section for any failure to comply with a notice and order or voluntary compliance agreement shall be assessed daily, according to the schedule in subsection A of this section, for the first thirty days following the date the notice and order or voluntary compliance agreement required the code violations to have been cured. If after thirty days the person responsible for code compliance has failed to satisfy the notice and order or voluntary compliance agreement, penalties shall be assessed daily at a rate of double the rate for the first thirty days. Penalties may be assessed daily until the person responsible for code compliance has fully complied with the notice and order.
C. Penalties based on violation of a stop work order shall be assessed, according to the schedule in subsection A. of this section, for each day the department determines that work or activity was done in violation of the stop work order.
D. Citations and cleanup restitution payments shall only be subject to a one-time civil penalty.
E. The director may suspend the imposition of additional civil penalties if the person responsible for code compliance has entered into a voluntary compliance agreement. If the person responsible for code compliance enters into a voluntary compliance agreement and cures the code violations, the director may also waive all or part of the accrued civil penalties in accordance with K.C.C. 23.32.050. Penalties shall begin to accrue again pursuant to the terms of the voluntary compliance agreement if any necessary permits applied for are denied, canceled, or not pursued, or if corrective action identified in the voluntary compliance agreement is not completed as specified.
F. The civil penalties in this section are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any penalties, sanctions, restitution, or fines provided for in any other provisions of law.
