AN ORDINANCE relating to winery, brewery and distillery uses; and amending Ordinance XXXXX (Proposed Ordinance 2022-0147), Section 4, and K.C.C. 21A.xx.xxx, Ordinance XXXXX (Proposed Ordinance 2022-0147), Section 5, and K.C.C. 21A.xx.xxx, Ordinance 19030, Section 7, and K.C.C. 6.74.040 and Ordinance 10870, Section 335, as amended, and K.C.C. 21A.08.080.

Body

                     BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:

                     SECTION 1.  Findings:

                     A.  The Washington state Growth Management Act ("GMA"), including RCW 36.70A.130, requires that King County take action to review, and if needed, revise its Comprehensive Plan and development regulations implementing the Comprehensive Plan.

                     B.  Ordinance 19030 established updated regulations for winery, brewery, distillery ("WBD") facilities and remote tasting rooms in unincorporated King County.

                     C.  Ordinance 19030 was challenged to the Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board ("the board").

                     D.  The board held a hearing on the merits of the petitioner's appeal to Ordinance 19030 on November 17, 2021.

                     E. On January 3, 2022, the board issued its Final Decision and Order for Case No. 20-3-0004c ("the board's January 2022 order"), which granted the appeal based on SEPA and GMA grounds and invalidated Ordinance 19030, Sections 12 through 30, and map amendments 1 and 2, which were Attachments A and B to Ordinance 19030.  Those sections included definitions, zoning conditions, parking requirements, temporary use permit clarifications, home occupation and home industry limitations and a demonstration project.  The board's January 2022 order also remanded Ordinance 19030 to the county to take actions to bring it into compliance.

                     F.  Ordinance XXXXX (Proposed Ordinance 2022-0147) responds to the board's January 2022 order with several substantive changes, including changes to improve the protection of agricultural lands and agricultural production districts, protection and enhancement of rural character, and strengthening the licensing program, among other changes.

                     G.  The Comprehensive Plan addresses the GMA's requirement to plan for industrial uses; Policy ED-211 encourages the county to "support programs and strategies to preserve and plan for an adequate supply of industrial and commercial land," including through "[p]reventing the encroachment of non-industrial uses on industrially-zoned land and the rezoning of industrial land to other uses."  This ordinance recognizes that although King County has a finite amount of industrial land available, at their highest levels of intensity, some WBD businesses can grow to a level of mechanization, volume and intensity suited for the Industrial zone, but avoids funneling smaller, less mechanized, community-serving businesses into the county's limited Industrial zoned areas.  Those smaller scale WBD uses are appropriately placed in more aesthetically pleasing areas, where rural community consumers and visitors to the county's many regional recreation and tourism opportunities can support economic success.  This ordinance aims to avoid bringing low-impact, low-intensity WBD uses into limited Industrial zone spaces that are reserved for more intensive industrial uses.

                     H.  This ordinance builds on Ordinance XXXXX (Proposed Ordinance 2022-0147) in several ways:

                       1.  Allows WBD I, II and IIIs within the UR zone, consistent with the development regulations in the RA zone;

                       2.  Adds a separation requirement for WBD IIs and IIIs in the RA and UR zones, to avoid impacts of clustering these uses;

                       3.  Allows wineries in the Industrial zone; and

                       4.  Limits the tasting and retail hours of operation for WBD IIs and IIIs in the RA and UR zones

                     SECTION 2.  Ordinance XXXXX (Proposed Ordinance 2022-0147), Section 4, and K.C.C. 21A.xx.xxx are hereby amended to read as follows:

                     For any winery, brewery, distillery facility I, II or III, excluding those on Vashon-Maury Island, the following standards shall apply:

                     A.  In the RA zones:

                       1.  For winery, brewery, distillery facility I:

                         a.  The aggregated floor area of structures and areas for winery, brewery, distillery facility uses shall not exceed one thousand five hundred square feet;

                           (1)  proximity of the winery, brewery, distillery facility use to neighboring residential uses and other winery, brewery, distillery facility uses;

                           (2)  sufficient existing or proposed landscape screening between the winery, brewery, distillery facility use and adjacent uses;

                           (3)  anticipated impacts to neighboring residential uses such as noise or odor; and

                           (4)  parcel size, topography and proximity to critical areas;

                         c.  Off-street parking is limited to a maximum of one hundred fifty percent of the minimum required for winery, brewery, distillery facilities in K.C.C. 21A.18.030;

                         d.  In addition to an approved Washington state Liquor and Cannabis Board production license, at  least two stages of production of wine, beer or distilled spirits, such as crushing or milling, pressing, fermenting, distilling, filtration, barrel or tank aging, finishing, or bottling or packaging shall occur on-site.  At least one of the stages of production occurring on-site shall include crushing or milling, pressing, fermenting or distilling;

                         e.  Product tasting or retail sales shall not be allowed on-site;
