IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
City staff are preparing a substantial update to the Pasco Municipal Code (PMC)
to accommodate a variety of residential housing options and typologies, increase
development flexibility and clarity, and accommodate local market needs. Work
on Phase 1 began in December 2021 and was initiated with the help of the Home
Builders Association of the Tri-Cities (HBA-TC) and to supplement the upcoming
Housing Action and Implementation Plan.
The proposed recommendations are being conducted with the assistance of
planning consultant, Oneza and Associates. This effort is intended to be the first
phase of several that follow recent changes associated with Washington State
House Bill 1923, adopted by the Council in January 2022.
The purpose of this staff report is to highlight key revisions to the Zoning Code.
Staff is prepared to follow this report with several workshops throughout the
summer/fall.
Proposed Recommendations
Page 3 of 24
The changes will impact various elements of PMC Title 25: Zoning. Staff focused
revisions on the following key features:
This update will focus on the following components:
• Lot Sizes and Dimensions
• Lot Frontages
• Setbacks
• Building Orientation
• Parking and Driveways
• Site Access and Circulation
These elements were selected after receiving a proposal from the Home Builders
Association of the Tri-Cities. These elements were also indicated as barriers in
the results of a 2021 Housing Survey conducted by staff which solicited feedback
from housing developers, stakeholders, and builders.
Planning Commission Summary
The Pasco Planning Commission recommended the draft ordinance at the
November 2022 meeting. The Planning Commission conducted three public
hearings and four workshops to discuss the proposal. The table below
summarizes meetings and public hearings held with the Planning Commission.
In addition to the meetings above, this effort has been shared and communicated
with various stakeholders in the housing development community. Staff held
three (3) meetings to ensure that the proposed changes are practical in
addressing much-needed housing flexibility. Staff notes that additional input has
been provided by local builders and developers, which may require minor
changes to the proposal.
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff welcomes City Council input and feedback on the proposal, which will help
guide follow up discussions and workshops. A presentation has been prepared
for Council.

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council August 11, 2023

Meeting: 8/14/23
FROM: Jacob Gonzalez, Director
Community & Economic Development
SUBJECT: Discussion - Single Room Occupancy (SRO) Housing - Moratorium
I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution No 4317: SRO Moratorium Continuation

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Discussion
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
In February 2019, the Pasco City Council adopted Ordinance No. 4425
amending the Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) Title 25: Zoning, to allow Single
Room Occupancy (SRO) Housing Developments (PMC Chapter 25.162).
Provisions of PMC 25.162 restrict SROs to the C-1, C-2, and C-3 zoning districts
with regulates also City The permit. approval conditional a of the use
onstandards, development including -minimum and management, site
requirements for bathrooms, kitchens, and other facilities/amenities based on
the number of dwelling units.
On March 7, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No 4158, declaring a
moratorium prohibiting the permitting and converting of SRO units. This was
followed by the adoption of Resolution No. 4241 on Se ptember 6, 2022, adopting
findings, which are paraphrased below:
• Impacts on residential and commercial neighborhoods
• Impacts on city infrastructure (roads and traffic), and parking
Page 14 of 24
• Evaluation of SROs as part of the Housing Action and Implementation
Plan
An extension of the moratorium was adopted on March 6, 2023, via Resolution
No. 4317, to continue the evaluation of the findings adopted by the Council and
identify potential new standards in line with best practices with respect to the
overall housing efforts undertaken by the City.
The moratorium is set to expire on September 7, 2023, unless otherwise
terminated or extended.
V. DISCUSSION:
The staff has collected information on current applications/permits of SROs,
along with best practices and policies. The intent is to provide Council with a
summary of how current SROs are performing in the Tri-Cities region and identify
potential revisions to the current SRO regulations to be applied following the
expiration of the moratorium.
SRO Projects
To date, Pasco has two approved permits for SROs. One project is located at
1520 N Oregon (The Alegra), which includes the conversion of 104 units. This
project is currently 48% occupied, with rental prices between $995 - $1,145
based on the floor plan. A second project, located at 1800 W Lewis Street (The
Loyalty Inn), has been on pause due to developer financing. It is anticipated this
project will restart in late August, which includes the conversion of 161 units.
The City of Kennewick anticipates issuing a certificate of occupancy on its first
SRO projects by the end of August, which will result in the conversion of 132
units. The City of Richland currently has one SRO project operating, of which
25% of the 204 units are occupied.
With regards to the operation and conditions of the SROs (region -wide), there
have not been any reported or documented violations associated with the
housing developments. With the developments being recently completed, and
tenants still moving in, there is simply not enough data or information to report
on.
Development of New Standards/Regulations
SROs play an important role in the overall housing option cycle, pa rticularly
because they are intended to provide more affordable options for residents
seeking housing. While affordability is intended, it is important to acknowledge
that without an affordability requirement, prices are subject to local market rates.
Page 15 of 24
The City currently allows SROs in the C-1, C-2, and C-3 zoning districts. While
the C-2 district is centered in Downtown, the C-1 and C-3 districts are dispersed
spatially across the city. A special focus on access and location should be
considered. Site projects in and near commercial nodes near stores and
resources utilized by the target renters or tenants, including but not limited to
locations that have access to public transit, with the development type/size fitted
to the neighborhood (scale, form, density).
The City may also want to draft separate requirements that accommodate the
conversion of motel units versus new construction or development of SROs.
Housing Action and Implementation Plan
The Housing Action and Implementation Plan is expected to receive a
recommendation from the Pasco Planning Commission at the August meeting.
The plan identified that Pasco has an undersupply of 1,700 housing units. With
an expected need of over 23,000 new units by the year 2045, 29% are
anticipated to be needed at income levels below 50% of the Area Median Income
(less than $50,850).
City staff has confirmed with impacted organizations and agencies, including the
Home Builders Association of the Tri-Cities, Visit Tri-Cities, and the Housing
Authority of Franklin County/City of Pasco regarding SROs. Generally, input has
supported the allowance of SROs to serve the housing needs of the region, and
that SROs are not impacting the availability of hotel units for tourism.
As Pasco continues to experience significant growth, the demand for housing
will continue to increase. SRO housing can help alleviate the pressure on the
housing market by offering an alternative to traditional apartments or homes.
Staff is supportive of SROs as an option and tool available by developers to
supply much-needed housing, and would recommend identifying the appropriate
measures to address the location and management of the SRO code as part of
the expiration of the moratorium.
