Article V. General Requirements for Shoreline Use and Modifications: Part II. Primary and Accessory Uses

Section 17E.060.370 Accessory Uses

  1. Accessory uses shall be permitted based on the primary use permitting process. For example, if the primary use requires a shoreline conditional use permit, then the accessory use shall also require a shoreline conditional use permit.
     
  2. Accessory uses shall be allowed only if clearly incidental and necessary for the operation of a permitted primary use unless expressly permitted or prohibited as accessory uses. Examples of accessory uses include parking (subject to parking standards in SMC 17E.060.600, Parking Facilities), caretaker's quarters, residential garages, sheds, and gazebos.
     
  3. Unless specifically stated otherwise in the regulations for the applicable environment, accessory uses which are not water-dependent and not water-related, even if accessory to water-dependent or water-related uses, shall be permitted over water only if the over-water location is necessary for the operation of the water-dependent or water-related use.
