§ 17.96.045. Zoning lot covenants—Applicability.  


Latest version.
  • Zoning lot covenants, as defined in PAMC 17.08.130.C, may only be used to allow a property owner to designate two or more adjacent lots as a single lot of record, when the existing two or more lots:

    A.

    Have a legal residential structure encroaching onto said lots; or

    B.

    Results in a lot that meets the zoning and subdivision requirements.

    A zoning lot covenant is not intended to allow the circumvention of applicable platting regulations and is intended to allow the consolidation of properties by a property owner for development and use by the owner.

    The covenant shall be recorded with the County Auditor's Office and a copy of the recorded covenant shall be provided to the Department of Community and Economic Development. Once filed, the covenant may only be removed through compliance with RCW 58.17 and Chapter 16.04 or 16.08.
