An additional opportunity for public comment will occur after the applicant formally applies for a preliminary plat and letters inviting comment are mailed to households within 300 feet of the proposed development. After the preliminary plat is reviewed by city staff, city staff will submit a report to the Hearing Examiner, who will ultimately review the proposed land action. Finally, public comment can also be submitted at the Hearing Examiner review. Aron Golden, developer with Conner Homes, introduced Conner Homes as one of the oldest, privately held home builders in the Puget Sound region. The founder of Conner Homes, Charlie Conner, lives in Renton and Conner Homes is excited to be building homes in housing-constrained Puget Sound. It was discussed that a plat project by a different developer was recently completed east of this proposed development and attendees felt that the previous plat process was not transparent and involved late changes driven by the City. Attendees also voiced concerns about coordination between the City of Renton and King County during review. Alex Morganroth advised attendees to submit comments at this meeting and during other review periods inviting public comment. Kyle Carrick presented the proposed conceptual plan and plat layout. Attendees responded to the proposal with multiple comments. Overall, comments focused on three main areas: traffic, offsite drainage, and neighborhood connectivity. Several attendees expressed concern for increased traffic volumes and vehicle speeds on stretches of 156th Ave SE located two blocks east of the proposed development. Street racing and high speeds were mentioned multiple times, and attendees requested greater speed enforcement and mitigation measures from the City. Alex Morganroth mentioned that traffic concerns on 156th are separate from this development, but speed bumps, curb bulbs, and speed radar are typical calming measures considered by city traffic engineers in addition to intersection controls such as stop signs and traffic signals. Regarding offsite drainage infrastructure, attendees living to the southeast of the proposed development along 154th Ave SE discussed how the recently completed plat modified downstream drainage patterns. Attendees expressed that the primary conveyance ditch on the east side of the street is undersized for the recent plat to the east and that the recent plat’s pond has lowered the existing ditch. Attendees noted that the ditch occasionally overtops the road, which is not actively maintained by King County. Alex Morganroth responded by noting that he will work with city reviewers to have the development to comply with City of Renton drainage standards and will seek to coordinate with King County to bring existing drainage concerns to their attention. Lastly, neighborhood connectivity was brought up with attendees concerned about additional vehicles using the proposed east-west road to travel between 152nd Ave SE and 156th Ave SE. Attendees favored maintaining limited access to the southeast and noted that the recent plat to the east worked with the City to gate access south to 154th Ave SE. However, despite gates, some vehicles have still managed to cut through. Attendees also discussed maintaining sidewalk connectivity along the proposed east-west road. City preapplication notes and the conceptual site plan both show the southern sidewalk along the proposed east-west road ending at City limits. Alex Morganroth noted the City is aware of coordination needs between the City and King County but noted that the City can only enforce improvements within City limits. Additional comments raised by attendees included matching existing lighting and frontage standards of the recent plat to the east, limiting glare from new (and existing) street lights, relocating the City of Renton sewer main running through the proposed development, and the proximity of the proposed storm tract to the existing storm tract to the recent plat to the east. Attendees also invited both the developer and City to tour the area with them in the near future.
