§ 14.08.020. Correlation with zoning ordinance.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    Prior to the issuance of any permit under this title, the building official shall review the proposed work and use for compliance with Union Gap's zoning ordinances, Union Gap Municipal Code Title 17, as it now exists or are hereafter amended. Compliance with applicable zoning requirements shall be a condition precedent to the issuance of any permit under this title. General building permits issued under the provisions of the Uniform Building Code adopted by reference in this title shall incorporate appropriate references to zoning requirements and shall, once issued, serve as compliance with the applicable provisions of Union Gap Municipal Code Title 17.

    (b)

    Pursuant to RCW 19.27.090, certain zoning requirements, building setbacks, side and rear yard requirements, site development standards, property line requirements, subdivision requirements and general land requirements are contained and reserved in other enacted ordinances and policy documents of the city of Union Gap. Enactment of this title does not abrogate those requirements. In case of direct conflict between the provisions of this title and such other ordinances, the most restrictive shall apply. Provided, in cases where the development coordinator of the city of Union Gap believes that application of any provision of the uniform codes adopted by reference in this title interferes, directly or indirectly, with a land use policy as set forth by the adopted ordinance or policy document, he may refer such conflict to the city council for formal determination of specific priority, which shall thereafter govern. Such determinations shall be adopted by resolution and kept on file with the building official for public reference. Such determinations shall be made at an open public meeting. The Union Gap city council may also initiate a determination under this section by its own motion.
