Shoreline Environmental Designation Map Revision

I. BACKGROUND

Sumner adopted the updated FEMA’s FIRM Maps through ordinance 2596 in February of 2016.

This included updating Sumner’s flood hazard area map to accurately portray the new flood data.

The intent of a periodic review is to ensure Sumner’s SMP stays current with State laws,

amendments to Sumner’s municipal code, updates to plans and changing circumstances. This

recent adoption of FEMA’s current flood mapping should be incorporated into Sumner’s

shoreline master programs shoreline environmental designations map to accurately reflect flood

data and maintain consistency with Sumner’s critical areas code. Flood data is used to determine

shoreline jurisdiction as defined in RCW 90.58.030(2) (b) and (d).

Sumner is not proposing amendments to buffer widths, or changes to environmental

designations, but rather including the updated FEMA flood data on the SED map. In addition to

the updated flood data, Sumner is also proposing two small amendments to the maps legend.

II. SUMMARY OF PROPOSED MAP AMENDMENTS

The specific amendments are summarized as follows:

Amendments initiated by changes in State legislature and Department of Ecology:

A. FEMA FIRM Sumner adopted updated FEMA FIRM’s in February of 2016; the updated FIRM’s adjust

floodway and floodplain locations based off newer mapping. This data is reflected in the

amendments to Sumner’s SED maps.

B. Legend – Sumner City Limits The current SED map uses pink to designate Sumner’s city limits; however the legend

indicates a light green color. This amendment revises the “Sumner City Limits” legend color

to reflect the pink used on the map to maintain consistency and clarity for the reader.

C. Legend- Natural Designation Sumner’s current map legend lists the shoreline environmental designations and includes one

that reads as “natural and buffers”. This amendment would revise that section of the legend

to read as “natural” in order to accurately portray the correct name of the environmental

designation.

III. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

The following pertinent sections and policies related to the amendment are presented below:

ENVIRONMENT ELEMENT

GOAL 1. Practice environmental stewardship by protecting, enhancing and

promoting the natural environment in and around the City of

Sumner.

GOAL 2. Protect life and property in areas of natural hazards.

2.2 Minimize the potential for loss of life and damage to public and private investments

resulting from flooding along the White (Stuck) and Puyallup Rivers.

2.2.1 Work with the appropriate agencies to secure easements and make the

necessary improvements along the riverbanks to ensure damage is

minimized and environmental impacts are mitigated.

2.2.3 Work with appropriate agencies to develop and implement regulations to

reduce flood damage, including reinforced building design, compensatory

flood storage, limitations on the location of building in floodplains, and

adoption of a “zero-rise” standard or floodplain development.

GOAL 3. Protect and enhance unique, valuable, and critical plant and wildlife

habitat and promote bio-diversity.

3.1 Implement regulations and programs to protect unique, valuable and critical plant

and wildlife areas, including flexible design standards.

3.2 Protect shorelines and wetlands through appropriate regulations, acquisition, and

non-regulatory policies related to education, stewardship, density credits, restoration,

etc.

3.8 Give special consideration to conservation and protection measures necessary to

preserve and enhance of anadromous fisheries and listed or threatened endangered

species.

SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM ELEMENT

Goal 1. Provide for economic activity that is water-dependent, water-related, or

that provides an opportunity for a substantial number of people to enjoy

the shoreline (water-enjoyment).

SMP SED Map Revisions 3

1.1. To plan for uses that benefit from a shoreline location.

Goal 5. Ensure that the overall design of land use patterns will locate activity

and development in areas of the shoreline that will be compatible with

adjacent uses and will be sensitive to existing shoreline environments,

habitat, and ecological systems.

5.1 To promote the best possible pattern of land and water uses consistent with the

Shoreline Management Act of 1971, the City of Sumner Comprehensive Plan, the

City of Sumner Parks and Recreation Plan, the Sumner Trail Master Plan, and the

Sumner Zoning Code.

Goal 6. Preserve, protect, and restore to the greatest extent feasible the physical,

biological, and visual attributes of the shoreline environment.

6.1 Through the use of best available science develop and implement siting criteria,

design standards, and best management practices that will ensure the long term

enhancement of unique shoreline features, natural resources, and fish and wildlife

habitat.

6.2 To designate and develop areas where there is an opportunity to restore, enhance,

and conserve the natural shoreline for the benefit of fish and wildlife habitat.

Goal 8. Protect the City of Sumner from losses and damage created by flooding.

8.1 To seek regional solutions to flooding problems through coordinated planning

with state and federal agencies, other appropriate interests, and the public. To

ensure that flood hazard protection projects having a positive environmental

benefit that emphasize long-term solutions over short term solutions.

IV. ANALYSIS

This amendment would update Sumner’s SMP to maintain consistency with changes to State

legislature, Sumner’s municipal code and Town Center Plan.

V. CONCLUSION

The amendments, overall, are consistent with the goals and policies related to land use, and

community character within the City’s comprehensive plan.
