David W. Millard, Land Planning and Management., 22127 .- 152nd S . E. ,
Kent, indicated his apology regarding the inadequacy of the pre-
sentation documents this evening. He displayed a drawing of the
lay-out of existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park and noted the
relationship to it of the two parcels requested for a change in thee
Comprehensive Plan land use designation . Mr. Millard noted plans
for development-- 12 lots , 64 feet wide , for triple-wide units on
the approximate two acre site and single family residential lots
on approximately one acre of the front portion (along Union Avenue
S. E . ) of the approximate ten acre site and mobile home expansion _
on the approximate nine acres to the rear or the parcel . Proposed
buffering from neighboring properties was discussed, and landscaping
plans were noted.
Questions from the Commission followed. Commissioner Webb inquired
about the proposed development as it relates to the low density
multi -family development and was advised by Mr. Millard that the
intent is to allow for construction of a mobile home park similar
to the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park. Discussion
ensued regarding provisions of the low density multi -family designa-
tion and the need for study of the request by the Commission .
Dean Bitney, 1082 Anacortes N. E . , Renton , indicated his intention
to request a "T" (trailer park ) zone .
It was noted by the Planning Director that the request for zoning
follows a change in the Comprehensive Plan designation and require !:
Hearing Examiner review. He discussed the relationship between the
density of mobile home park construction and the low density multi -
family category and noted that mobile home park use is a special
permit process in the multiple zone .
Mr. Bitney then discussed the details of his proposed mobile home
park development, noting average size and values of the units , pro-
posed buffering from adjacent properties , and planned density. He
noted conversion from a gravel pit and control of current recreational
vehicle use in the area .

to the park and increased traffic and congestion on Union . He also
expressed concern regarding a potential emergency while the road-
way is blocked when moving in mobile home units .
Glen Koppelman , 4400 S . E . 3rd Place , indicated his concern regarding
the low density multi -family designation and requested some kind of
guarantee that development would be as proposed. Mr . Koppelman also
expressed his concern regarding additional traffic on Union Avenue ,
noting the proposed additional development of single family homes
on approximately 20 acres to the north of Heather Downs and about
40 additional homes anticipated in Heather Downs upon installation
of sewers ; The condition of the roadway was discussed , and the
need for turn lanes and sidewalks in the interest of safety was
noted . Mr. Koppelman also cited the dangerous intersection at

Mr. Bitney noted the transitory nature of the congestion problem
created by the movement of mobile home units into the park ; plansfortrafficcontrolwithintheparkandattheaccesspoint, when
the development is complete; the use of the second access for
emergency only; greater security provided residents by limited
access ; and the number and type of residents and their life-styles .
Mr. Bitney acknowledged the concern of the neighborhood regarding
possible apartment development and offered to provide restrictive
covenants to run with the land limiting the development to a mobile
home park.
Mrs . Don Greenwalt, 4203 S.E. 3rd Place, Renton , expressed concern
regarding extra traffic on Union Avenue and inquired regarding
possible use of the second access for regular traffic. She also
asked about any plans for improvement of Union Avenue.
The Planning Director indicated that the matter of access is a
Comprehensive Plan concern and suggested the review of the Arterial
Street Plan in the Commission ' s study.
Mrs . Greenwalt also inquired regarding sewer plans for the proposedmobilehomepark .
The Chairman advised that the sewer question would be reviewed bythestudycommittee, including the matter of utility services in
terms of density.
Newton Ellifrits , 4218 S. E. 3rd P1ace, .indicated that he objects to
multi -family development but would not oppose a mobile home park.

B. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT: Dean W. Bitney, Application CP-903-77;
implication for comprehensive land use plan designation amendment from
single family residential to low density multi-family residential ; .
property located as listed below:
Parcel 1 : Approximately 2.4 acres between the existing Leisure
Estates Mobile Home Park and Union Avenue Southeast
approximately 121 feet north of Southeast Second
Place.
Parcel 2: Approximately. 10 acres located between the Bonneville
Power Administration transmission line easement and
Union Avenue Southeast directly south of the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park.
Gordon Ericksen, Planning Director, stated that there was additional input
in the form of a letter from Jean F. Truman, 4101 Southeast Second Place,
Renton, concerning the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment. Chairman
Walker read the letter to the Commission and a copy is on file in applica-
tion CP-903-77 file.
Mr. Ericksen pointed out that the letter indicated that the area to the
north of Heather Downs is a 10 acre site for development, but it is in
reality. a 20 acre site and is awaiting the installation of sanitary sewers
in order to develop. In addition to the letter from Jean F. Truman, , the
Comprehensive Planning Committee has received some additional input from
Dean W. Bitney and David Millard, Land Management Associates, with compara-
tive analysis in regard to single family use and mobile home park, vehicle
traffic, the rules for residents of Leisure Estates and a copy of proposed
restrictive covenants.
Discussion followed concerning the study that the Comprehensive Planning
Committee had done. Clark Teegarden read the committee's report which is
on_ file (copy attached).
Commissioner Hanis brought up the point that the Commission should not be
determining whether a trailer park should be built, but that they should
consider the appropriate use of the entire area.
Clark Teegarden pointed out that the Planning Commission is the first step
involved in the. process of getting to the Hearing Examiner for a final
decision. He also pointed out that the Committee looked at the whole picture
including the impact of multi family useage of the land. The main problem
seems to be access. Any development will compound the problem.
Commissioner Schellert asked Clark Teegarden about the Committee's review
of the Comprehensive Plan in the Highlands area with regard to the time
span involved. Mr. Teegarden replied that at the present time they were
working on the southeast quadrant. It is anticipated that the northeast
quadrant would be the next area that would be considered, which is the area
that we are now discussing. He advised that there are several months
of work left on the southeast quandrant review.
Chairman Walker then asked for comment from Mr. Bitney.
David L. Millard, Land Management, 22627 - 152nd Southeast, Kent, Washington
was representing Mr. Bitney. He stated that they had met with the Committee
the previous Wednesday. He agreed that the 21/2 acre site is a problem for
the Hearing Examiner and would move on to the subject of the 10 acre site.
Mr. Millard stated that they have to, unwillingly, go through a Comprehensive
Plan change to the designation of low density mutli-family. He expressed
concern in using this method to achieve their goal of a "T" zone.

Mr. Millard continued describing the developemnt of Leisure Estates. The
proposed use of the 10 acres in question will be of benefit by using portions
of a gravel pit. He pointed out that there is a need in the Renton area for
this type of quality mobile home park. Mr. Millard presented several printed
items for reference comparing the impacts of a single family subdivision
versus an adult mobile home park. A copy of these figures in on file in
the application CP-903-77 file.
Another point brought up by Mr. Millard was how would the city be guaranteed
that the land would not be used in ways other than a mobile home. park if it.
were zoned low density multi-family. Mr. Millard referred to a proposed
declaration of restrictive covenants to run with the property, noting that
the permitted uses of the property shall be "T" and that the park would be
restricted to adults thereby reducing the population impact.
A recess was declared at 9: 10 PM by the Chairman. The meeting was resumed
at 9:25 PM with all members noted above in attendance.
Chairman Walker then invited the Commission to ask Mr. Millard any questions
that they might have concerning the Leisure Estates proposal .
Commissioner Gist asked for clarification concerning the number of spaces
in Leisure Estates at the present time, and how many were occupied. She
inquired whether the expansion of Leisure Estates would permit for larger
home sites and more walkway and greenbelt areas. Mr. Millard advised that
that type of development would be economically unsound, and that the residents
of Leisure Estates wanted smaller lot sizes with a greater lot coverage to
eliminate yard and landscape work.
Discussion followed concerning the population figures, traffic patterns,
and taxes paid, and schools in the area with comparisons between single
family residences and adult mobile home parks.
Dean W. Bitney, 1082 Anacortes Northeast, Renton, Washington made a closing
statement concerning his proposed development emphasizing that residents in
Leisure Estates do not want to have to take care of yards, thus his intent
to place six units per acre as permitted by a "T" zone.
Jean F. Truman, 4101 Southeast Second Place, Renton restated her specific
objection against the multi-family designation proposed which would allow
multi-family development of a larger portion of land and possibly allow
development other than Leisure Estate type development.
Discussion followed concerning the zoning change, traffic problems, boundaries,
restrictive covenants and related problems.
Commissioner Hanis noted that the proposed covenants are not enforceable
as written. Discussion followed covering all the aspects of the proposal .
ACTION:
MR. IIANIS MOVED, WEBB SECONDED, THAT THE COMMISSION NOT CONCUR WITH THE
RECOMMENDATION OF THE COMMITTEE, BUT TO ALLOW THE CHANGE IN THE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN TO LOW DENSITY MULTI-FAMILY CLASSIFICATION.
Jean F. Truman asked if the 10 acre parcel of land is the only area being
considered by the Comprehensive Plan change.
Chairman Walker advised that the only matters being considered were the
10 acre site 'and the 21/2 acre site, however, in comprehensive planning, the
boundaries are not precise.

COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT
May 9 , 1978
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Clark Teegarden , Chairman
Comprehensive Planning Committee
RE: Comprehensive Plan Amendment Request
Dean W. Bitney, File No. CP-903-77
INTRODUCTION:
The above noted request was referred to the Comprehensive Planning Committee
for study and recommendation. The property in question is located in the
southeast Highlands area adjacent to the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home
park and adjacent to Heather Downs . The Committee, while considering the
expansion request , undertook a review of the area on a more comprehensive
basis in order to realistically address the amendment request. The Committee
reviewed the area and held four committee meetings and a field trip of the
area . The matters of land use , traffic circulation , including pedestrian
and vehicular, utility service to the area including sanitary sewers and
water, storm run-off, street conditions and the growth potential were reviewed
in some detail .
For the purposes of the committee 's deliberations , the Comprehensive Plan isdefinedastheofficialstatementoftheCityofRentonestablishingmajorpoliciesconcerningdesirablefuturedevelopment.

To promote the public interest, the interest of the city atlargeaswellastheinterestsofindividualsorspecialgroups;
To facilitate the democratic determination and implementationofcitypoliciesondevelopment;
To effect political and technical coordination in develop-ment;
O To inject long-range considerations into the determination ofshort-range actions; and
To bring professional and technical knowledge to bear on the
making of political decisions on the development of the city.
The Comprehensive Plan is intended to serve as a guide to help resolvesomeofthedevelopmentproblemsconfrontingmunicipalofficialsandthepeopletheyrepresent. The Plan takes into account existing con-ditions and future needs, and attempts to express the best reasonableconsensusthatcanbeachievedatagiventimeastothecharacteranddirectionoffuturegrowth.
ti
The Plan is of necessity general in its proposals. It must be flexible,since it is impossible to predict all future events which may affectthecommunity. The Plan is not a zoning ordinance, although it makessignificantrecommendationsforfuturelanduse. The Plan is not pre-cise. It does not represent engineering accuracy, nor does it claimtopredictexactlythefutureuseofeveryparcelofproperty, orinsurethatgrowthisconsistentwiththeComprehensivePlan.
In order for the Plan to maintain effectiveness, it should be reviewedperiodically. Conditions might change and unforeseen events may occurwhichmightnecessitateare-evaluation.
ANALYSIS:
1. Initially, the committee, in reviewing the request, determined
that the small two acre parcel located at the entrance of the
existing mobile home park was not a comprehensive plan question,
but basically one of zoning and should therefore be reviewed bytheHearingExaminer.
2. The larger parcel of land located south of the mobile home parkisacomprehensiveplanquestionandwasreviewedonacompre-hensive basis. With reference to said parcel, the committeedeterminedthat:
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT
MAY 9, 1978
PAGE THREE
A. Land Use Element: The low density multi-family designation
on the land use plan was predicated on the power line
easement serving as a buffer between a more intensive
use to the west and the less intensive use to the east
providing a transitional area from high density multiple
to single family residential. The original development
of the low density multi family area was predicated on the
provision of additional access to service the area. Such
access, however, has been limited through the zoning action
to emergency use only.
B. Circulation: Access to the area southerly. of Northeast
4th Street is via Union Avenue Northeast. Said access
presently constitutes a cul-de-sac situation serving all
of the development and population tributary to Union Avenue .
Residents in the area expressed concern with regard to the
matter of increased traffic and also pedestrian access in
the area. These matters were investigated by the committee
and it was noted that, while Union Avenue N.E. has adequate
capacity congestion occurs during peak hours of traffic
at the intersection of Northeast 4th Street and Union Avenue.
The street is basically a two-lane blacktop road with
limited shoulders that are presently used as pedestrian walkways .
The road itself is located in both the city and county,
and improvements are limited to basic maintenance and
operation.. The up-grade of Union Avenue is not proposed
in the present six year street program.
The committee reviewed the alternative possibilities for
improvement of the circulation system by setting aside
potential rights-of-way for street development. The com-
mittee concluded that the existing arterial street plan,
while logical at its time of formulation, cannot be developed
in the manner as published due to new development that has
occurred. It appears, therefore, that a future connection
from Union Avenue N.E. to 138th and beyond may be the only
practical answer to the present cul-`de-sac situation. The
alternative would be the provision of additional access
from N.E. 4th Street along the power line right-of-way.
C. Utilities : The committee investigated both the matter of
sanitary sewers and storm water run-off. In either case
the requested expansion of the mobile home park would not
impact existing development since facilities serving said
development could be expanded to meet the needs. The
committee, while recognizing the need for an expansion
of sanitary sewers to the area, did not feel this was a
major deterent to development.
COMPIEHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORTMAY9, 1978

D. Community Facilities: it should be recognized that
there are no public park facilities in the vicinity oftheproposeddevelopmentorintheHeatherDownsarea.The nearest playground available is at the KiwanisPark, the Honeydew Elementary School, or the MaplewoodHeightsElementarySchool.
The comprehensive park and recreation plan., recently ,adopted by the City Council, does include the proposedacquisitionoftenacrestobeusedasaplayfieldintheHeatherDownsarea. Potential development of theareanorthofHeatherDownsincreasestheneedfor
additional neighborhood facilities in order that the
residents can avoid traveling considerable distancestousefacilities.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the above information, the committee recommends as follows:
Land Use:
1. Review of the two acre parcel is not a Comprehensive Plan question.The request should therefore be submitted to the Hearing Examinerforconsideration.
2. The requested southerly expansion of the low density multiplefamilyareaisnotrecommendedatthistimeduetothelimitedaccessandthegrowthproblemswhichareimpactingtheHeatherDownsarea.
3. The committee, at the conclusion of the southeast area studies,will reinitiate studies of the Highlands area in view of updatingtheComprehensivePlanforthenortheastsegmentofthecity.
Facilities:
1. Acquistion of a park/playground site (minimum ten acres) in -theHeatherDownsvicinityasrecommendedinthevComprehensiveParkPlan. Said park should be so located as to provide a continu-ation of the greenbelt-ravine area.
Circulation:
1. It should be noted that development even at a single familyresidentialdensitywillcompoundtheexistingcirculationproblemonUnionAvenueandintheHeatherDownsarea. Stepsshouldbetakentoimprovetheexistingcirculationsystemtoprovidetheareawithanalternatemeansofaccess.
2. The committee recommends that additional study of this area be
undertaken at such time as the Comprehensive Plan review of theHighlandsareaisreinitiated.

OFFICE OF THE LAND USE HEARING EXAMINER
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL,
APPLICANT: Dean W. Bitney FILE NO. R-100-77
LOCATION: Approximately 950 feet south of N.E. 4th Street and
approximately 650 feet west of Union Avenue N.E. directly
adjacent and north of the existing Leisure Estates Mobile
Home Park.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of rezone from 'G' to 'T' which
is the city's designated Mobile Home Park zone. Approval of
the requested zoning will allow for expansion of the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park. The preliminary plan
approval process established in Chapter 20, Mobile Home Parks
will apply to specific site development.
SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Approval with conditions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Hearing Examiner: Approval with conditions.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received by the
REPORT: Examiner on December 13, 1977.
PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining
available information on file with the application, and
field checking the property and surrounding area, the
Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject ,as
follows:
The hearing was opened on December 20, 1977 at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of
the Renton Municipal Building.
Parties wishing to testify were sworn.
It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed
the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
Michael Smith, Planning Department, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following
additional exhibits into the record:
Exhibit #2: King County Assessor's Map
Exhibit #3: Conceptual Site Plan
Exhibit #4: Examiner's Report and Recommendation,
File No. MH-011-77, dated 2-22-77 (by
reference)
The Examiner asked the representative for the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1.
Responding was:
David Millard
22627 152nd S.E.
Kent, WA 98031
Mr. Millard indicated his concurrence in the report. He clarified' the purpose of an
attached letter to Exhibit #1 from Public Works Director, Warren C. Gonnason, and
stated that stipulations contained in the letter had been accomplished by the developer.
He noted that because of recent storm water runoff from the Leisure Estates site onto
the Greenwood Cemetery property to the west, review of the situation was currently being
made with the property owner and the city's Planning and Public Works Departments to
reduce storm runoff and mitigate the problem. Regarding the Planning Department
recommendation for retention of a significant number of trees on the site, Mr. Millard
indicated his cooperation to adhere to the recommendation, but felt that placement of
units on the site may necessitate removal of some vegetation and requested certain
flexibility in this.determination. He noted that recommendations from the Fire
Department had prohibited burning to clear the parcel and expressed the desire to
coordinate the matter with the department to allow utilization of similar procedures
as were allowed in the previous development of Leisure Estates, and indicated that the
applicant possessed a valid air quality permit.
R-100-77 Page Two
The Examiner asked for further testimony in support or opposition to the request.
There was no response. Mr. Smith suggested that the Examiner with the concurrence of
the applicant recommend that the Traffic Engineering Division review the situation on
the 30-foot right-of-way along the westerly portion of the subject site connecting to
Monroe Avenue N.E. to evaluate the necessity for an additional 20-foot easement to the
already existing 30-foot easement. He noted that an additional 20 feet had been
dedicated along the existing 30 feet in the area along N.E. 4th Street.
Mr. Millard objected to the proposal because of physical problems in the area caused
by the existing terrain, location of an existing detention pond, and the possibility
of the easement interfering with location of the Greenwood Cemetery maintenance
equipment yard, and creating the necessity of removal of existing trees on the site.
Mr. Smith agreed that physical constraints currently exist but felt that the possibility
for reserve of the property should be reviewed by the city for future development which
would not necessitate removal of trees at the present time.
In response to the Examiner's inquiry regarding utilization of the proposed easement
by motorcyclists and recreational vehicles, the applicant indicated his desire to
testify. Responding was:
Dean W. Bitney
1082 Anacortes N.W.
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Bitney reported that previous problems had occurred with recreational vehicles
utilizing the site, but construction of a fence and installation of. a cable along
N.E. 4th Street had restricted parking on the property and eliminated recreational use
aided by enforcement by the Renton Police Department. He indicated that dedication of
an additional 20 feet on the easement would recreate the previous problem. . Mr. Millard
requested that a dedication of the area not be a condition of the rezone, but that the
applicant would coordinate the possibility of reserving the property for future access
with the Planning and Public Works Departments.
The Examiner asked Mr. Smith for additions, corrections or modifications to Exhibit #1.
Mr. Smith reiterated his recommendation for the Traffic Engineering Division to study
the possibility of reserving a 20-foot right-of-way along the westerly portion of the
site as part of the preliminary plat review.
The Examiner asked for further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on
Item #R-100-77 was closed by the Examiner at 9:45 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the
Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The request is for approval of a rezone from G to T to allow an addition to the
existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park.
2. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, applicable policies
and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter
and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report by reference
as set forth in full therein.
3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental
Policy Act of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.21.C. , a Declaration of Non-Significance
has been issued for the subject proposal by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official.
4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the
impact of this development.
5. There was no opposition to the proposal expressed.
6. All existing utilities are available and in close proximity.
7. The proposal is compatible with the required lot size requirements of Section 4-2006
of Title IV, Ordinance No, 1628, Code of General Ordinances.
8. Access to the site is predominantly through the existing mobile home park and to
Union Avenue N.E. Secondary access is for emergency purposes over the Bonneville
Power Administration right-of-way which intersects the property. Other possible
but physically difficult points of access are 128th Avenue S.E. (half-street right-
ti
R-100-77 Page Three
of-way connection to N.E. 4th Street) and a half-street right-of-way connection
to the west to Monroe Avenue N.E. It appears, therefore, that two points of access
exist (Section 4-2006.B) .
9. An approximately five foot high concrete fence exists around the perimeter of the
site, including the existing mobile home park.
10. Generally, the surrounding properties are underdeveloped in terms of residential
uses. Few residences directly abut the site.
11. Dense timber growth exists over the easterly half of the site except for the area
cleared for construction of the perimeter fence.
12. Preliminary and final development plans require public review and approval by the
Hearing Examiner per Sections 4-2004, 4-2005, and 4-714.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives and
the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (Section 4-3014. (B) ) . Conditions are required .
for complete conformance.
2. The last land Use analysis did not apparently consider the request in this area of
the .G (General) zoning classification (Section 4-3014. (A) ) .
3. Since the last land use analysis the Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park was .developed
which substantially affected the property (Section 4-3014. (C) ) . Recent annexations
of adjacent property have also occurred.
4. The conceptual site plan (Exhibit #3) indicated that 19 mobile home site's are
proposed in the approximate easterly 3 acres of the site. This means a density of
slightly more than 6 units/acre abutting the existing G zone (allowable density of
about 1 unit/acre) . Therefore, the existing concrete fence will inadvertently' act
as a buffer and landscaping is necessary.
Indicated on Exhibit #3 is 10 feet of landscaping on the west and north portions
of the 'fence. This appears deficient and should be expanded to include an adequate
amount of existing trees. Since testimony was not entered regarding the extent .
of this vegetation buffer, it is appropriate that its consideration occur during
review of the preliminary development plan.
5. Access• to the north and west of the site requires investigation by the Public
Works Department to determine physical feasibility and adequacy. The agreement
with the Bonneville Power Administration should be reviewed. In view of the
existing mobile home park, this issue is not very significant. However, the
Public Works bepartment should be satisfied with access provisions per Section
4-2006.B.
6. The dense timber on the site presents an opportunity to retain as many trees as
possible in the landscape plan of the preliminary development plan. Until review
of this plan is completed, it is appropriate that this timber not be cut.
7. Resolution of the storm water drainage from the site appears available through use
and expansion of existing facilities. This plan will be reviewed with the
preliminary development plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based upon the record, testimony, findings and conclusions, it is the recommendation
of the Examiner that the City Council approve the requested rezone subject to:
1. No. clearing or grading of the site until a development plan is approved per
Sections 4-2004 and 4-2005.
2. Public Works Department approval of secondary access per Section 4-2006.B.
3. Completion of restrictive covenants incorporating the aforementioned conditions.

Re : "Leisure Estates" Detention System
Dear Dave :
This letter is to confirm the agreements reached at .the meetingheldinthisofficeJune9, 1977 , regarding storm water detention
from the referenced development.
It was agreed that the developer would install three (3) rock
detention dams in the existing •drainage channel to the detenfioti.
pond , with, an overflow pipe 6. inches in diameter, to the easterlydrainageswale , placed at an appropriate location. The developer also
agreed to steepen the south and 'east sides of. the existing detention
pond and reduce the orifice opening from 10 inches to 6 inches .
These modifications are to increase the storage volume by 10000cubicfeet.
The City' s decision to agree to the conditions mentioned above was
based on- the fact that this is to be a privately owned. and maintained
storm drainage system, and is in no way meant to sizallz_shCity's. .acceptance .of the stem. The City maintains the position that due
ru-rhy-Tra-ZT a. positive drainage outlet at the cemetery. propOrtyandtoprotect • the owner and the City, the ala0able outflow from
the site should be based on . 5-year . frequency storm, as stated
in a letter to you dated April 13 , 1977.

RE : R-100-77 ;• REZONE FROM 'G ' TO 'T ' , TRAILER PARK
D. HISTORY/BACKGROUND :
The subject site was annexed into the city on June 22 , 1966 byOrdinanceNo . 2249 . The site directly south of the subject site
which contains the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park
was rezoned from ' G ' to ' T ' on December 19 , 1969 by Ordinance
No . 2527 . .. The Final Plan approval for the mobile home park was
granted by the. Hearing Examiner on February 22 , 1977 .
E. PHYSICAL BACKGROUND :
1 . Topography : The approximate . . easterly one-half of the subject
site is relatively level . The easterly one-half of the site
rises toward the east at an approximate 9% slope .
2 . Soils : ., Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (AgC ) . Permeability is
moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil , and very
slow in the substratum. Available water capacity is low, run-
off is slow to medium and hazard of erosion is moderate . This
soil is used for timber , pasture , row crops , and urban
development .
3 . Vegetation : The majority of the site , exclusive of the power
line right-of-way , is heavily wooded and consisting of various
evergreen and deciduous trees and typical northwest woodland
understory. The existent significant trees should be retained
as much as possible in the design scheme of any proposed develop-
ment for the subject site .
4 . Wildlife : The existing vegetation on the site may provide
some habitat for various birds and mammals typical of the
northwest woodland environment.
5. Water: . Surface water or streams are not apparent on the subject.
site.
6. Land Use : The subject site is presently undeveloped consisting
primarily of evergreen and deciduous trees together with
typical woodland underbrush . The Bonneville Power Administration
transmission line easement cuts a 200 foot path north and south
across the easterly portion of the property . The existing
Leisure Mobile Home Park is located directly adjacent to the
south of the subject site. An existing single family residence
is located north of the subject site . City of Renton property
is located adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject site .
Existing single family residences .are located east and south of
the site along Union Avenue N . E .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS : .
The subject site is within a relatively.sparsley. developed area of
the city consisting of a mixture of uses , including mobile home
parks , single family residences , businesses , cemetery use , and an
abandoned gravel pit use .
G . PUBLIC SERVICES :
1 . Water and Sewer: The subject site is adjacent to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park which is adequately served by
existing water and sewer mains . Storm drainage is provided
internally within the park and utilizes the retention pond located
at the southwest corner of the subject site . The Engineering
Division indicates that this pond is not operating adequatelyandshouldbeenlarged .

Copies of certain memoranda and comments are attached .
0. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS :
1 . The proposed rezone is consistent . with the Comprehensive Land
Use Plan , map element designation of low and medium density
multiple residential
2 . Section 4-714 requires that 'T ' zones only be permitted in
areas designated for low, medium , or high density multiple
family residential in the Comprehensive Plan .
3 . , The subject site is proposed as an addition to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park to the south . Therefore ,
any development plans will require further submittal and
review of a- Preliminary: Mobile Home Park Plan application per
Chapter. 20 , Mobile Home Parks .
4. Suitable utilities are available to the subject site.
5. The applicant must submit detailed drainage plans with pro-
posed development plans per the Storm and Surface Water Drainage
Ordinance. The existing retention pond has not been functioning
properly and will require certain design changes .
6. Section 4-3014 relates to circumstances by which the Examiner
can recommend a change in zone classification . It appears
that Section 4-3014(A) and (B ) applies given the configuration
of the consistency of the request with the existing compre
hensive plan for the site and area north and south .
7. The land use and availability of proper utilities in the area
have undergone significant and material changes , primarily as
a result of the development of Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .
Also , the area west and east of the subject site 'have been
recently annexed into the City of Renton from King County.
This may have an affect of stimulating additional changes in
land use and development patterns . (Section 4-3014( C) ) '
8. Although the subject site is adjacent to sparsely developed
single family residential property east and north of the subject
site , suitable development controls and screening will provide
compatibility with these adjacent land uses . (Comprehensive Plan
Objectives , pages 17 and 18. ) The nearest residence to the
east is located approximately 400 feet from the subject site ,
and the nearest residence to the north is approximately 30 feet
from the subject site . Access shall be onto the existing internal
system within Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .

RE : R-100-77 ; REZONE FROM ' G ' TO 'T ' , TRAILER PARK
9. The existing natural character of the site should be retained
as part of the site development per the Comprehensive Plan ,
Objectives , pages 17 and 18 and the proposed road as indicated
on the conceptual plan submitted by the applicant must
connect to the existing road within Leisure Estates Mobile
Home Park to provide a loop circulation as opposed to a
dead-end . This will be reviewed in detail together with other
specific development requirements at the time of the Mobile
Home Park preliminary plan application .
P . PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION :
Recommend approval of the proposed rezone based on the above
analysis . Further review of detailed site development plans
including detailed landscape/screening plans and detailed
drainage/retention plans shall be reviewed via a Preliminary
Mobile Home Park application pursuant to Chapter 20 , Mobile
Home Parks . It should also be noted that a significant number
of trees shall be retained and incorporated into the site
development plan as a mitigating measure of the environmental
impact'. No cutting , clearing , grading , or removal of vegetation
shall be commenced until completion of the Mobile Home Park Plan
review per Chapter 20.

Re :' . "Leisure Estates"' Detention System
Dear Dave :
This letter is to confirm :the agreements reached at .the meetingheldinthisofficeJune9, .''1977 , regarding storm water detention
from . the referenced development..
It was agreed that the developer• would install three (3) rock
detention dams . in• the existing drainage channel to the detention.
pond, with an overflow pipe 6, inches in diameter, tp the easterlydrainageSwale , placed at . an appropriate locatidn._' .The developer also
agreed : to steepen the s`outh ,and east sides of. the existing detentionpondandreduceL• the .orifice'opening from 10 inches to 6 inches ..
These modifications are to increase the storage volume: by• 10;000cubicfeet .
The City' s decision to 'agree to the conditions mentioned above was
based on-the 'fact that this is to. be a privately owned and maintained
storm drainage system, and is in no way meant to Sig ifz.ity' s
acceptance .of the s stem. :. The—City maintains. •the position that due
to the --lac o ' a positive, drainage outlet at the cemetery, propertyand .to protect,. the owner and the City, the abloatable outflow from
the site should be based ons••a 5-year • frequency storm, as stated
in ' a letter to you dated April . 13 , 1977.

PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER
PUBLIC HEARING OF DECEMBER 20 , 1977

RE : . R-100-77 ; REZONE FROM ' G ' TO ' T ' , TRAILER PARK
D . HISTORY/BACKGROUND :
The subject site was annexed into the city on June 22 , 1966 by
Ordinance No . 2249 . The site directly south of the subject site
which contains the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park
was rezoned from ' G ' to 'T ' on December 19 , 1969 by Ordinance
No. 2527 . The Final Plan approval for the mobile home park was
granted by the Hearing Examiner on February 22 , 1977 .
E. PHYSICAL BACKGROUND :
1 . Topography : The approximate easterly one-half of the subject
site is relatively level . The easterly one-half of the site
rises toward the east at an approximate 9% slope .
2. ' Soils : Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (AgC ) . Permeability is
moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil , and very
slow in the substratum. Available water capacity is low , run-
off is slow to medium and hazard of erosion is moderate . This
soil is used for timber , pasture , row crops , and urban
development .
3 . Vegetation : The majority of the site , exclusive of the power
line right-of-way , is heavily wooded and consisting of various
evergreen and deciduous trees and typical northwest woodland
understory. The existent significant trees should be retained
as much as possible in the design scheme of any proposed develop-
ment for the subject site .
4 . Wildlife : The existing vegetation on the site may provide
some habitat for various birds and mammals typical of the
northwest woodland environment .
5. Water : Surface water or streams are not apparent on the subject
site.
6. Land Use : The subject site is presently undeveloped consisting
primarily of evergreen and deciduous trees together with
typical woodland underbrush . The Bonneville Power Administration
transmission line easement cuts a 200 foot path north and south
across the easterly portion of the property . The existing
Leisure Mobile Home Park is located directly adjacent to the
south of the subject site . An existing single family residence
is located north of the subject site . City of Renton property
is located adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject site .
Existing single family residences are located east and south of
the site along Union Avenue N . E .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
The subject site is within a relatively spars-ley, developed area of
the city consisting of a mixture of uses , including mobile home
parks , single family residences , businesses , cemetery use , and an
abandoned gravel pit use .
G . PUBLIC SERVICES :
1 . 'Water and Sewer : The subject site is adjacent to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park which is adequately served by
existing water and sewer mains . Storm drainage is provided
internally within the park and utilizes the retention pond located
at the southwest corner of the subject site . The Engineering
Division indicates that this pond is not operating adequately
and should be enlarged .

N . E . approximately one mile north of the subject site .
4 . Schools : Honeydew Elementary School is located approximately
one mile north of the subject site . McKnight Middle School
is located approximately three miles north and west of the
subject site and Hazen High School is located approximately
two miles north and east of the subject site .

2 . Policy Statement , Comprehensive Plan , Renton Urban Area , 1965 .
J . IMPACTS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS :
The proposed rezone will not have a direct effect on the natural
systems, however , subsequent development of the subject site wil.l
disturb soils , increase run-off , and remove certain existing
vegetation on the subject site . However , these impacts can be
mitigated through proper development controls , including proper
storm water retention facilities and retention of existing vege-
tation in the design and development of the subject site .
K. SOCIAL IMPACTS :
Certain social impacts may occur due to the resulted increase
density in the area .
L. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD :
Pursuant to the City of Renton ' s Environmental Ordinance and the
State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , as amended , RCW 43 . 21C , a
Declaration of Non-significance has been issued for the subject
proposal ( see attached ) . This negative declaration is for the
rezone only , further development of the subject site will require
additional environmental review pursuant to the State Environmental
Policy Act .

4. City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division

6. City of Renton Fire Department
Copies of certain memoranda and comments are attached .
0. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS :
1 . The proposed rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Land
Use Plan , map element designation of low and medium density
multiple residential
2 . , Section 4-714 requires that 'T ' zones only be permitted in
areas designated for low , medium , or high density multiple
family residential in the Comprehensive Plan .
3 . The subject site is proposed as an addition to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park to the south . Therefore ,
any development plans will require further submittal and
review of a Preliminary Mobile Home Park Plan application per
Chapter 20 , Mobile Home Parks .
4. Suitable utilities are available to the subject site.
5 . The applicant must submit detailed drainage plans with pro-
posed development plans per the Storm and Surface Water Drainage
Ordinance . The existing retention pond has not been functioning
properly and will require certain design changes .
6 . Section 4-3014 relates to circumstances by which the Examiner
can recommend a change in zone classification . It appears.
that Section 4-3014(A) and (B ) applies given the configuration
of the consistency of the request with the existing compre-
hensive plan for the site and area north and south.
7 . The land use and availability of proper utilities in the area
have undergone significant and material changes , primarily as
a result of the development of Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .
Also , the area west and east of the subject site have been
recently annexed into the City of Renton from King County.
This may have an affect of stimulating additional changes in
land use and development patterns . ( Section 4-3014( C) )
8. Although the subject site is adjacent to sparsely developed
single family residential property east and north of the subject
site , suitable development controls and screening will provide
compatibility with these adjacent land uses . (Comprehensive Plan
Objectives , pages 17 and 18. ) The nearest residence to the
east is located approximately 400 feet from the subject site ,
and the nearest residence to the north is approximately 30 feet
from the subject site . Access shall be onto the existing internal
system within Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .

RE : R-100-77 ; REZONE FROM ' G ' TO ' T ' , TRAILER PARK
9 . The existing natural character of the site should be retained
as part of the site development per the Comprehensive Plan ,
Objectives , pages 17 and 18 and the proposed road as indicated
on the conceptual plan submitted by the applicant must
connect to the existing road within Leisure Estates Mobile
Home Park to provide a loop circulation as opposed to a
dead-end . This will be reviewed in detail together with other
specific development requirements at the time of the Mobile
Home Park preliminary plan application .
P . PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION :
Recommend approval of the proposed rezone based on the above
analysis . Further review of detailed site development plans
including detailed landscape/screening plans and detailed
drainage/retention plans shall be reviewed via a Preliminary
Mobile Home Park application pursuant to Chapter 20 , Mobile
Home Parks . It should also be noted that a significant number
of trees shall be retained and incorporated into the site
development plan as .a mitigating measure of the environmental
impact . No cutting , clearing , grading , or removal of vegetation
shall be commenced until completion of the Mobile Home Park Plan
review per Chapter 20 .

It was agreed that the developer would install three (3) rock.

pond , with an .overflow pi.p.e 6,`i•nches in 'diameter, tp the easterlydrainageswale , placed at anappropriate locatidn.;•:1; The developer also
agreed :to steepen . the south ,and east sides of. the, •existing detention
pond and reduce the .orifice'' opening •from 10 inches to 6 inches
These Modifications are to increase ,the storage .volume. by• 10;000cubicfeet.
The .City' s decision to *agree to the conditions mentioned: above was
based on- the 'fact that this' is to, be a privately.. owned :and maintained

COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT
May 9 , 1978
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Clark Teegarden, Chairman
Comprehensive Planning Committee
RE: Comprehensive Plan Amendment Request
Dean W. Bitney, File No. CP-903-77
INTRODUCTION:
The above noted request was referred to the Comprehensive Planning Committee
for study and recommendation . The property in question is located in the
southeast Highlands area adjacent to the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home
park and adjacent to Heather Downs . The Committee , while considering the
expansion request, undertook a review of the area on a more comprehensive
basis in order to realistically address the amendment request. The Committee
reviewed the area and held four committee meetings and a field trip of the
area . The matters of land use , traffic circulation , including pedestrian
and vehicular, utility service to the area including sanitary sewers and
water, storm run-off, street conditions and the growth potential were reviewed
in some detail .
For the purposes of the committee ' s deliberations , the Comprehensive Plan isdefinedastheofficialstatementoftheCityofRentonestablishingmajorpolicies - concerning desirable future development.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN — DEFINITION AND PURPOSE :
The Comprehensive Plan consists of the Goals , Objectives , and Policies ; LandUseElement ; Circulation Element ; Community Facilities Element; and Definitions .Proposed developments should be reviewed against the Comprehensive Plan toinsurethatgrowthisconsistentwiththePlan.

To promote the public interest, the interest of the city atlargeaswellastheinterestsofindividualsorspecialgroups;
To facilitate the democratic determination and implementationofcitypoliciesondevelopment;
To effect political and technical coordination in develop-ment;
To inject long-range considerations into the determination ofshort-range actions; and
To bring professional and technical knowledge to bear on the
makingof political decisions on the development of the city.
The Comprehensive Plan is intended to serve as a guide to help resolvesomeofthedevelopmentproblemsconfrontingmunicipalofficialsandthepeopletheyrepresent. The Plan takes into account existing con-ditions and future needs, and attempts to express the best reasonableconsensusthatcanbeachievedatagiventimeastothecharacteranddirectionoffuturegrowth.
The Plan is of necessity general in its proposals. It must be flexible,since it is impossible to predict all future events which may affectthecommunity. The Plan is not a zoning ordinance, although it makessignificantrecommendationsforfuturelanduse. The Plan is not pre-cise. It does not represent engineering accuracy, nor does it claimtopredictexactlythefutureuseofeveryparcelofproperty, orinsurethatgrowthisconsistentwiththeComprehensivePlan.
In order for the Plan to maintain effectiveness, it should be reviewedperiodically. Conditions might change and unforeseen events may occurwhichmightnecessitateare-evaluation.
ANALYSIS:
1. Initially, the committee, in reviewing the request, determined
that the small two acre parcel located at the entrance of the
existing mobile home park was not a comprehensive plan question,but basically one of zoning and should therefore be reviewed by
w the Hearing Examiner.
2. The larger parcel of land located south of the mobile home parkisacomprehensiveplanquestionandwasreviewedonacompre-hensive basis. With reference to said parcel, the committeedeterminedthat:
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT
MAY 9, 1978
PAGE THREE
A. Land Use Element: The low density multi-family designation
on the land use plan was predicated on the power line
easement serving as a buffer between a more intensive
use to the west and the less intensive use to the east
providing a transitional area from high density multiple
to single family residential. The original development
of the low density multi family area was predicated on the
Provision of additional access to service the area. Such
access, however, has been limited through the zoning action
to emergency use only.
B. Circulation: Access to the area southerly. of Northeast
4th Street is via Union Avenue Northeast. Said access
presently constitutes a cul-de-sac situation serving all
of the development and population tributary to Union Avenue.
Residents in the area expressed concern with regard to the
matter of increased traffic and also pedestrian access in
the area. These matters were investigated by the committee
and it was noted that, while Union Avenue N.E. has adequate
capacity congestion occurs during peak hours of traffic
at the intersection of Northeast 4th Street and Union Avenue.
The street is basically a two-lane blacktop road with
limited shoulders that are presently used as pedestrian walkways.
The road itself is located in both the city and county,
and improvements are limited to basic maintenance and
operation. The up-grade of Union Avenue is not proposed
in the present six year street program.
The committee reviewed the alternative possibilities for
improvement of the circulation system by setting aside
potential rights-of-way for street development. The com-
mittee concluded that the existing arterial street plan,
while logical at its time of formulation, cannot be developed
in the manner as published due to new development that has
occurred. It appears, therefore, that a future connection
from Union Avenue N.E. to 138th and beyond may be the only
practical answer to the present cul-ode-sac situation. The
alternative would be the provision of additional access
from N.E. 4th Street along the power line right-of-way.
w
C. Utilities: The committee investigated both the matter of
sanitary sewers and storm water run-off. In either case
the requested expansion of the mobile home park would not
impact existing development since facilities serving said
development could be expanded to meet the. needs. The
committee, while recognizing the need for an expansion
of sanitary sewers to the area, did not feel this was a
major deterent to development.

D. Community Facilities: It should be recognized that
there are no public park facilities in the vicinity oftheproposeddevelopmentorintheHeatherDownsarea.The nearest playground available is at the KiwanisPark, the Honeydew Elementary School, or the MaplewoodHeightsElementarySchool.
The comprehensive park and recreation plan, recently ,adopted by the City Council, does include the proposedacquisitionoftenacrestobeusedasaplayfieldintheHeatherDownsarea. Potential development of the
area north of Heather Downs increases the need for
additional neighborhood facilities in order that the
residents can avoid traveling considerable distancestousefacilities.
RECO1MENDATIONS:
Based on the above information, the committee recommends as follows:
Land Use:
1.
Review of the two acre parcel is not a Comprehensive Plan question.The request should therefore be submitted to the Hearing Examinerforconsideration.
2. The requested southerly expansion of the low density multiplefamilyareaisnotrecommendedatthistimeduetothelimitedaccessandthegrowthproblemswhichareimpactingtheHeatherDownsarea.
3. The committee, at the conclusion of the southeast area studies,will reinitiate studies of the Highlands area in view of updatingtheComprehensivePlanforthenortheastsegmentofthecity.
Facilities:
1. Acquistion of a park/playground site (minimum ten acres) in -theHeatherDownsvicinityasrecommendedinthe'Comprehensive ParkPlan. Said park should be so located as to provide a continu-ation of the greenbelt-ravine area.

OFFICE OF THE LAND USE HEARING EXAMINER
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL,
APPLICANT: Dean W. Bitney FILE NO. R-100-77
LOCATION: Approximately 950 feet south of N.E. 4th Street and
approximately 650 feet west of Union Avenue N.E. directly
adjacent and north of the existing Leisure Estates Mobile
Home Park.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of rezone from 'G' to 'T' which
is the city's designated Mobile Home Park zone. Approval of
the requested zoning will allow for expansion of the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park. The preliminary plan
approval process established in Chapter 20, Mobile Home Parks
will apply to specific site development.
SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Approval with conditions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Hearing Examiner: Approval with conditions.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received by the
REPORT: Examiner on December 13, 1977.
PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining
available information on file with the application, and
field checking the property and surrounding area, the
Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as
follows:
The hearing was opened on December 20, 1977 at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of
the Renton Municipal Building.
Parties wishing to testify were sworn.
It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed
the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
Michael. Smith, Planning Department, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following
additional exhibits into the record:
Exhibit #2: King County Assessor's Map
Exhibit #3: Conceptual Site Plan
Exhibit #4: Examiner's Report and Recommendation,
File No. MH-011-77, dated 2-22-77 (by
reference)
The Examiner asked the representative for the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1.
Responding was:
David Millard
22627 152nd S.E.
Kent, WA 98031
Mr. Millard indicated his concurrence in the report. He clarified the purpose of an
attached letter to Exhibit #1 from Public Works Director, Warren C. Gonnason, and
stated that stipulations contained in the letter had been accomplished by the developer.
He noted that because of recent storm water runoff from the Leisure Estates site onto
the Greenwood Cemetery property to the west, review of the situation was currently being
made with the property owner and the city's Planning and Public Works Departments to
reduce storm, runoff and mitigate the problem. Regarding the Planning Department
recommendation for retention of a significant number of trees on the site, Mr. Millard
indicated his cooperation to adhere to the recommendation, but felt that placement of
units on the site may necessitate removal of some vegetation and requested certain
flexibility in this.determination. He noted that recommendations from the Fire
Department had prohibited burning to clear the parcel and expressed the desire to
coordinate the matter with the department to allow utilization of similar procedures
as were allowed in the previous development of Leisure Estates, and indicated that the
applicant possessed a valid air quality permit.

PP::////
R-100-77 Page Two
The Examiner asked for further testimony in support or opposition to the request.
There was no response. Mr. Smith suggested that the Examiner with the concurrence of
the applicant recommend that the Traffic Engineering Division review the situation on
the 30-foot right-of-way along the westerly portion of the subject site connecting to
Monroe Avenue N.E. to evaluate the necessity for an additional 20-foot easement to the
already existing 30-foot easement. He noted that an additional 20 feet had been
dedicated along the existing 30 feet in the area along N.E. 4th Street.
Mr. Millard objected to the proposal because of physical problems in the area caused
by the existing terrain, location of an existing detention pond, and the possibility
of the easement interfering with location of the Greenwood Cemetery maintenance
equipment yard, and creating the necessity of removal of existing trees on the site.
Mr. Smith agreed that physical constraints currently exist but felt that the possibility
for reserve of the property should be reviewed by the city for future development which
would not necessitate removal of trees at the present time.
In response to the Examiner's inquiry regarding utilization of the proposed easement
by motorcyclists and recreational vehicles, the applicant indicated his desire to
testify. Responding was:
Dean W. Bitney
1082 Anacortes N.W.
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Bitney reported that previous problems had occurred with recreational vehicles
utilizing the site, but construction of a fence and installation of. a cable along
N.E. 4th Street had restricted parking on the property and eliminated recreational use
aided by enforcement by the Renton Police Department. He indicated that dedication of
an additional 20 feet on the easement would recreate the previous problem. Mr. Millard
requested that a dedication of the area not be a condition of the rezone, but that the
applicant would coordinate the possibility of reserving the property for future access
with the Planning and Public Works Departments.
The Examiner asked Mr. Smith for additions, corrections or modifications to Exhibit #1.
Mr. Smith reiterated his recommendation for the Traffic Engineering Division to study
the possibility of reserving a 20-foot right-of-way along the westerly portion of the
site as part of the preliminary plat review.
The Examiner asked for further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on
Item #R-100-77 was closed by the Examiner at 9:45 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the
Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The request is for approval of a rezone from G to T to allow an addition to the
existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park.
2. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, applicable policies
and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter
and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report by reference
as set forth in full therein.
3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental
Policy Act of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.21.C. , a Declaration of Non-Significance
has been issued for the subject proposal by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official.
4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the
impact of this development.
5. There was no opposition to the proposal expressed.
6. All existing utilities are available and in close proximity.
7. The proposal is compatible with the required lot size requirements of Section 4-2006
of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General Ordinances.
8. Access to the site is predominantly through the existing mobile home park and to
Union Avenue N.E. Secondary access is for emergency purposes over the Bonneville
Power Administration right-of-way which intersects the property. Other possible
but physically difficult points of access are 128th Avenue S.E. (half-street right-
R-100-77 Page Three
of-way connection to N.E. 4th Street) and a half-street right-of-way connection
to the west to Monroe Avenue N.E. It appears, therefore, that two points of access
exist (Section 4-2006.B) .
9. An approximately five foot high concrete fence exists around the perimeter of the
site, including the existing mobile home park.
10. Generally, the surrounding properties are underdeveloped in terms of residential
uses. Few residences directly abut the site.
11. Dense timber growth exists over the easterly half of the site except for the area
cleared for construction of the perimeter fence.
12. Preliminary and final development plans require public review and approval by the
Hearing Examiner per Sections 4-2004, 4-2005, and 4-714.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive.Plan goals and objectives and
the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (Section 4-3014. (B) ) . Conditions are required
for complete conformance.
2. The last land use analysis did not apparently consider the request in this area of
the G (General) zoning classification (Section 4-3014. (A) ) .
3. Since the last land use analysis the Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park was developed
which substantially affected the property (Section 4-3014. (C) ) . Recent annexations
of adjacent property have also occurred.
4. The conceptual site plan (Exhibit #3) indicated that 19 mobile home sites are
proposed in the approximate easterly 3 acres of the site. This means a density of
slightly more than 6 units/acre abutting the existing G zone (allowable density of
about 1 unit/acre) . Therefore, the existing concrete fence will inadvertently act
as a buffer and landscaping is necessary.
Indicated on Exhibit #3 is 10 feet of landscaping on the west and north portions
of the fence. This appears deficient and should be expanded to include an adequate
amount of existing trees. Since testimony was not entered regarding the extent
of this vegetation buffer, it is appropriate that its consideration occur during
review of the preliminary development plan.
5. Access to the north and west of the site requires investigation by the Public
Works Department to determine physical feasibility and adequacy. The agreement
with the Bonneville Power Administration should be reviewed. In view of the
existing mobile home park, this issue is not very significant. However, the
Public Works Department should be satisfied with access provisions per Section
4-2006.B.
6. The dense timber on the site presents an opportunity to retain as many trees as
possible in the landscape plan of the preliminary development plan. Until review
of this plan is completed, it is appropriate that this timber not be cut.
7. Resolution of the storm water drainage from the site appears available through use
and expansion of existing facilities. This plan will be reviewed with the
preliminary development plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based upon the record, testimony, findings and conclusions, it is the recommendation
of the Examiner that the City Council approve the requested rezone subject to:
1. No clearing or grading of the site until a development plan is approved per
Sections 4-2004 and 4-2005.
2. Public Works Department approval of secondary access per Section 4-2006.B.
3. Completion of restrictive covenants incorporating the aforementioned conditions.

Re : "Leisure Estates" Detention System
Dear Dave :
This letter is to confirm the agreements reached at .the meetingheldin• this office June 9 , .''1977 , regarding storm water detention
from the referenced .development.
I,t was agreed that the developer. would install three (3) rock
detention dams. in the. existing ,drainage channel to the detention.
pond, with an overflow pipe 6 . inches in diameter, tQ. the easterlyd;rainage :swale , placed at an appropriate location. •`: The developer also
agreed to. steepen the south .and east sides of. the .existing detention
p;ond •and"reduce :.the orifice'opening from 10 inches to. 6 inches . .
These modifications are to increase .the storage vol.ume. by' 10;000Cubicfeet.
The City' s. decision to 'agree to the conditions, mentioned above was
based on- the 'fact that this is to be a privately owned 'and 'maintained
storm drainage system.,; and is in no way meant to sini t _ity's_..
acceptance .of the system. The City maintains -the position that due
ro"f-ie-Iack'og a. positive drainage outlet at the cemetery, propertyandtoprotect . the owner and the City , the allowable outflow from
the site should be based on ..a 5-year • frequency storm, as stated
in a letter to you dated April 13 , 1977.

RE : R-100-77 ;. REZONE FROM 'G ' TO 'T ' , TRAILER PARK
D . HISTORY/BACKGROUND :
The subject site was annexed into the city on June 22 , 1966 by
Ordinance No. 2249. The site directly south of the subject site
which contains the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park
was rezoned from ' G ' to '•T ' on December 19 , 1969 by Ordinance
No. 2527 . .. The Final Plan approval for the mobile home park was
granted by the. Hearing Examiner on February 22 , 1977 .
E. PHYSICAL BACKGROUND :
1 . Topography: The approximate'. easterly one-half of the subject
site is relatively level . The easterly one-half of the site
rises toward the east at an approximate 9% slope .
2 . Soils : ., Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (AgC) . Permeability is
moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil , and very
slow in the substratum. Available water capacity is low , run-
off is slow to medium and hazard of erosion is moderate . This
soil is used for timber , pasture , row crops , and urban
development.
3 . Vegetation : The majority of the site , exclusive of the power
line right-of-way ,is heavily wooded and consisting of various
evergreen and deciduous trees and typical northwest woodland
understory. The existent significant trees should be retained
as much as possible in the design scheme of any proposed develop-
ment for the subject site .
4 . Wildlife : The existing vegetation on the site may provide
some habitat for various birds and mammals typical of the
northwest woodland environment.
5. Water : Surface water or streams are not apparent on the subject
site.
6. Land Use : The subject site is presently undeveloped consisting
primarily of evergreen and deciduous trees together with
typical woodland underbrush . The Bonneville Power Administration
transmission line easement cuts a 200 foot path north and south
across the easterly portion of the property . The existing
Leisure Mobile Home Park is located directly adjacent to the
south of the subject site. An existing single family residence
is located north of the subject site . City of Renton property
is located adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject site .
Existing single family residences ..are located east and south of
the site along Union Avenue N . E .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS : .
The subject site is within a relatively.sparsley. developed area of
the city consisting of a mixture of uses , including mobile home
parks , single family residences , businesses , cemetery use , and an
abandoned gravel pit use .
G. PUBLIC SERVICES :
1 . Water and Sewer : The subject site is adjacent to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park which is adequately served by
existing water and sewer mains . Storm drainage is provided
internally within the park and utilizes the retention pond located
at the southwest corner of the subject site . The Engineering
Division indicates that this pond is not operating adequatelyandshouldbeenlarged .

Copies of certain memoranda and comments are attached .
0. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS :
1 . The proposed rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Land
Use Plan , map element designation of low and medium density
multiple residential
2 . Section' 4-714 requires that 'T ' zones only be permitted in
areas designated for low, medium , or high density multiple
family residential in the Comprehensive Plan .
3 . The subject site is proposed as an addition to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park to the south . Therefore ,
any development plans will require further submittal and
review of a' Preliminary. Mobile Home Park Plan application per
Chapter •20 , Mobile Home Parks .
4. Suitable utilities are available to the subject site.
5. The applicant must submit detailed drainage plans with pro-
posed development plans per the Storm and Surface Water Drainage
Ordinance. The existing retention pond has not been functioning
properly and will require certain design changes .
6. Section 4-3014 relates to circumstances by which the Examiner
can recommend a change in zone classification . It appears
that Section 4-3014(A) and (B) applies given the configuration
of the consistency of the request with the existing compre-
hensive plan for the site and area north and south.
7 . The land use and availability of proper utilities in the area
have undergone significant and material changes , primarily as
a result of the development of Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .
Also , the area west and east of the subject site have been
recently annexed into the City of Renton from King County.
This may have an affect of stimulating additional changes in
land use and development patterns . ( Section 4-3014(C) ) '
B. Although the subject site is adjacent to sparsely developed
single family residential property east and north of the subject
site , suitable development controls and screening will provide
compatibility with these adjacent land uses . (Comprehensive Plan
Objectives , pages 17 and 18. ) The nearest residence to the
east is located approximately 400 feet from the subject site ,
and the nearest residence to the north is approximately 30 feet
from the subject site . Access shall be onto the existing internal
system within Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park.

RE : R-100-77 ; REZONE FROM ' G ' TO ' T ' , TRAILER PARK
9. The existing natural character of the site should be retained
as part of the site development per the Comprehensive Plan ,
Objectives , pages 17 and 18 and the proposed road as indicated
on the conceptual plan submitted by the applicant must
connect to the existing road within Leisure Estates Mobile
Home Park to provide a loop circulation as opposed to a
dead-end . This will be reviewed in detail together with other
specific development requirements at the time of the Mobile
Home Park preliminary plan application .
P . PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION :
Recommend approval of the proposed rezone based on the above
analysis . Further review of detailed site development plans
including detailed landscape/screening plans and detailed
drainage/retention plans shall be reviewed via a Preliminary
Mobile Home Park application pursuant to Chapter 20 , Mobile
Home Parks . It should also be noted that a significant number
of trees shall be retained and incorporated into the site
development plan as a mitigating measure of the environmental
impact. No cutting , clearing , grading , or removal of vegetation
shall be commenced until completion of the Mobile Home Park Plan
review per Chapter 20.

agreed : to• steepen the south .and east sides of. the existing detentionpondandreducethe .orifice00'opening from 10 inches to 6 inches .
These modifications are to increase •the storage volume: by' 10;000cubicfeet .

PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER
PUBLIC HEARING OF DECEMBER 20 , 1977

RE : R-100-77 ; REZONE FROM ' G ' TO ' T ' , TRAILER PARK
D . HISTORY/BACKGROUND :
The subject site was annexed into the city on June 22 , 1966 by
Ordinance No . 2249 . The site directly south of the subject site
which contains the existing Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park
was rezoned from ' G ' to ' T ' on December 19 , 1969 by Ordinance
No . 2527 . The Final Plan approval for the mobile home park was
granted by the Hearing Examiner on February 22 , 1977 .
E . PHYSICAL BACKGROUND :
1 . Topography : The approximate easterly one-half of the subject
site is relatively level . The easterly one-half of the site
rises toward the east at an approximate 9% slope .
2 . Soils : Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (AgC ) . Permeability is
moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil , and very
slow in the substratum. Available water capacity is low , run-
off is slow to medium and hazard of erosion is moderate . This
soil is used for timber , pasture , row crops , and urban
development .
3 . Vegetation : The majority of the site , exclusive of the power
line right-of-way , is heavily wooded and consisting of various
evergreen and deciduous trees and typical northwest woodland
understory. The existent significant trees should be retained
as much as possible in the design scheme of any proposed develop-
ment for the subject site .
4 . Wildlife : The existing vegetation on the site may provide
some habitat for various birds and mammals typical of the
northwest woodland environment .
5 . Water : Surface water or streams are not apparent on the subject
site .
6 . Land Use : The subject site is presently undeveloped consisting
primarily of evergreen and deciduous trees together with
typical woodland underbrush . The Bonneville Power Administration
transmission line easement cuts a 200 foot path north and south
across the easterly portion of the property . The existing
Leisure Mobile Home Park 'is located directly adjacent to the
south of the subject site. An existing single family residence
is located north of the subject site . City of Renton property
is located adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject site .
Existing single family residences are located east and south of
the site along Union Avenue N . E .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
The subject site is within a relatively sparsley, developed area of
the city consisting of a mixture of uses , including mobile home
parks , single family residences , businesses , cemetery use , and an
abandoned gravel pit use .
G . PUBLIC SERVICES :
1 . Water and Sewer : The subject site is adjacent to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park which is adequately served by
existing water and sewer mains . Storm drainage is provided
internally within the park and utilizes the retention pond located
at the southwest corner of the subject site . The Engineering
Division indicates that this pond is not operating adequately
and should be enlarged .

J . IMPACTS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS :
The proposed rezone will not have a direct effect on the natural
systems, however , subsequent development of the subject site will
disturb soils , increase run-off , and remove certain existing
vegetation on the subject site. However , these impacts can be
mitigated through proper development controls , including proper
storm water retention facilities and retention of existing vege-
tation in the design and development of ' the subject site .
K. SOCIAL IMPACTS :
Certain social impacts may occur due to the resulted increase
density in the area .
L. ENVIRONMENTAL: ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD :
Pursuant to the City of Renton ' s Environmental Ordinance and the

2 . Section 4-714 requires that ' T ' zones only be permitted in
areas designated for low , medium , or high density multiple
family residential in the Comprehensive Plan .
3 . The subject site is proposed as an addition to the existing
Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park to the south . Therefore ,
any development plans will require further submittal and
review of a Preliminary Mobile Home Park Plan application per
Chapter 20 , Mobile Home Parks .
4. Suitable utilities are available to the subject site .
5. The applicant must submit detailed drainage plans with pro-
posed development plans per the Storm and Surface Water Drainage
Ordinance . The existing retention pond has not been functioning
properly and will require certain design changes .
6 . Section 4-3014 relates to circumstances by which the Examiner
can recommend a change in zone classification . It appears
that Section 4-3014(A) and (B ) applies given the configuration
of the consistency of the request with the existing compre-
hensive plan for the site and area north and south.
7 . The land use and availability of proper utilities in the area
have undergone significant and material changes , primarily as
a result of the development of Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .
Also , the area west and east of the subject site have been
recently annexed into the City of Renton from King County.
This may have an affect of stimulating additional changes in
land use and development patterns . ( Section 4-3014( C) )
8. Although the subject site is adjacent to sparsely developed
single family residential property east and north of the subject
site , suitable development controls and screening will provide
compatibility with these adjacent land uses . (Comprehensive Plan
Objectives , pages 17 and 18 . ) The nearest residence to the
east is located approximately 400 feet from the subject site ,
and the nearest residence to the north is approximately 30 feet
from the subject site . Access shall be onto the existing internal
system within Leisure Estates Mobile Home Park .

Re : "Leisure . Estates" Detention System
Dear Dave :
This letter is to confirm :the agreements reached at .the meetingheldinthisofficeJune9 , 1.977 , regarding storm water detentionfrom . the referenced development..
It was agreed that the developer would install three (3) rock..
detention dams • in• the existing drainage channel to the detention.
pond, with an .overflow pipe 6,'i.nches in diameter, to the easterlydrainageswale , placed at • an appropriate location. : The developer also
agree.d :to, steepen . the south ,and east sides of. the. existing detention
pond and 'reduce , the .orifice''opening 'from 10 inches to 6 inches .
These modifications are to increase the storage .volume. by' 10 000cubicfeet . .
The City' s decision to .agree to the conditions mentioned: above was
based on- the 'fact that this is •to:::be a privately.. owned and maintained
storm drainage system, and is in no way meant to signify: t ,_cit 's
acceptance •of the s stem. :••The c ty maintains'• the, position that due
to the -Ta,c o a positive drainage outlet at the :cemetery, propertyand _to protect . the owner 'and the City`, the:. alaowable outflow. from
the site should be based on,:a 5-year - frequency storm, as statted
