BODY
SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE:
Ordinance amending Whatcom County Code Title 20.34 Rural Residential Island (RRI) to allow food preparation for off-site consumption when accessory to and located within an approved community center.
The Rural Residential Island (RRI) District is specific to Lummi Island. It applies only to the north half of Lummi, which is generally rural. Some commercial uses are permitted through a conditional use permit under Whatcom County Code WCC 20.34.150. Lummi Island is a unique district with geographic barriers to food affordability and accessibility. This code change will allow food preparation for off-site consumption when accessory to and located within an approved community center as a conditional use.
