Steven Van Cleve is a lifelong resident of Eatonville, former
chairman of the Eatonville Planning Commission and former town council
member. The mailing address
for Mr. Van Cleve is PO Box 376 Eatonville, WA 98328. II. ACTIONS FOR WHICH REVIEW IS SOUGHT On
February 27, 2006 the Town of Eatonville, at its regular town council
meeting, adopted Ordinance 2006-6, the development regulations for the
Eatonville airport, Swanson Field (2W3).
RCW 36.70A.130 (1) requires that the development regulations to be
consistent with the comprehensive plan. Ordinance 2006-6 is not consistent
with the comprehensive plan. Ordinance 2006-6 also fails to meet the
requirements to discourage incompatible land use adjacent to the
Eatonville airport, Swanson Field as per RCW 36.70A.510 and RCW 36.70.547.
The ordinance fails to discourage incompatible land use, especially in the
areas nearest the runway. The
north end of Swanson Field is located at the border of the Town of
Eatonville and Pierce County. The
land north of the runway is not within the town limits. The town is not in
compliance with RCW 36.70A.100 because it has failed to coordinate the
adopted development regulations with Pierce County regarding this border
and the related airport lands. These
development regulations were never transmitted to the state by the Town of
Eatonville and were not subjected to the review by state agencies as
required under RCW 36.70A.106. III. ISSUES
Do
the adopted regulations fail to comply with the requirements of RCW
36.70A.130 (1) to develop regulations that are consistent with the
comprehensive plan? Do the adopted development regulations
fail to comply with the requirements of RCW 36.70.547 Did the Town of Eatonville fail to
comply with the requirements of RCW 36.70A.100 to coordinate their
development regulations with Pierce County on this regional issue? Did the town fail to comply with the
review requirements as defined in RCW 36.70A.106? Do these failures substantially
interfere with the goals of the GMA warranting a determination of
invalidity under RCW 36.70A.302? V. GMA STANDING
