NOTICE OF DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE (DNS) AND A PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING

Whitman County Planning issued a Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) under the State Environmental Policy Act Rules (Chapter 197-11 WAC) for the following project:

Whitman County proposes amendments to its Zoning Ordinances, Chapter 19.10, Agricultural District, Chapter 19.15 North-Pullman-Moscow Corridor District (N-PMC) and Chapter 19.16 South-Pullman-Moscow Corridor District (S-PMC). The proposed changes will clarify that the size restriction to signs in the N-PMC and S-PMC Districts also apply to freestanding signs and new language will grant the Planning Director latitude in approving sign requirements for potential shopping centers and industrial parks. The change to the Agricultural District will lift a 50-foot height restriction to non-residential buildings such as agricultural grain bins and elevators.

After review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with us, the Planning Office has determined that this proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment.

A public hearing will be held by the Whitman County Planning Commission on July 6, 2011, in the Auditorium, first floor of the Whitman County Public Service Building, at 7:00 PM.

Copies of the DNS are available at no charge from the Planning Office, Whitman County Public Service Building (2nd Floor), N. 310 Main St., Colfax, WA 99111. Interested persons may submit written comments regarding the proposed zoning action to the County Planning Office, P.O. Box 430, Colfax, WA 99111-0430, (fax) 509-397-6210, before 5:00 PM on Thursday, June 23, 2011.
