Date March ?5, 1975
TO: Planning Department
FROM: Utilities Engineering
SUBJECT:Proposed Rezone: A. Robert J. Kinsen
B. Gerald E. Schneider
A. No sewer on water service available to this site to date. Nearest
sewer and water along Rainier Ave. at N. W. 7th St. Water and sewer
service may be made available from Water District 14 and the Bryn
Mawr Sewer District on a temporary basis until City facilities are
available. Water District 14 fire capacities should be invccti;;ated
as entire water district is served off of an 8" Seattle meter.
B. Water and sewer available on Monroe .Ave. N.E. and N.E. 6th Street.
Water system is weak and chould'be some type of future tie between
N.E. 6th and Olympic and Monroe Ave. N.E.
Sewer facilities should be sufficient. Sewage load will have to be
calculated to determine load on system.

SUBJECT: Proposed Apartment Complex I :
East Side of Monroe Avenue NE,, r -_
r',
Vicinity NE 5th Street (Schnieder Application) • . .,1. ss `A, %
j
The- following comments are pertinent to the proposed development:
1. Monroe Ave. is 'classified as a collector arterial on "our
arterial plan. A collector arterial is defined as •a roadway •which will have, at ultimate•development, an approximate road-way width of thirty-six. (36) feet. with provision for two lanes .of moving traffic. Monroe Ave. "NE is presently the City's fourth
priority for improvement on the Six-Year Street Program forthecollectorsystem, .but we have no knowledge "of when funds •
may be available to improve it. - .
2. We would recommend that access to the development' be confined .
to Monroe Ave. .NE rather than to permit secondary access to •NE,_6th -Street. The residential streets in that vicinity are
intended for local neighborhood access only and should not be
used. to connect a multiple-residential area to the arterial,
system. A properly designed access roadway onto Monroe should
be adequate to handle traffic moving to and from"the development.
3. The development will, to some extent, increase traffic volumes _
on Monroe Ave. NE. We do not believe that it will overload
that facility, but it will aggravate problems at the intersection .
of NE 4th Street. and Monroe Ave. NE. This intersection already
shows .signs of warranting a traffic signal, . and' we Will need
to further investigate the intersection to determine if a signal
should be installed in the near future: If a signal is required
at this-. time, then we will request Council approval to install
one as soon as funds are available.
4., We do-'not foresee -that the .proposed development will have any
secondary adverse impact upon the City's transportation system
other than those .identified above.
Please advise us• if you -require any further information on this
project.

PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER
PUBLIC MEETING OF MARCH 29 , 1977

RE : GERALD E . SCHNEIDER REZONE APPLICATION NO . R-028-77
O. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1 . The proposed rezone does not agree with the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan within the northerly 200- 300 feet of the
subject site . The Comprehensive Land Use Plan indicates
single family residential land use extending approximately
300-350 feet south of the centerline of N . E . 6th St . The
southerly 330 feet of the subject site is indicated as
medium density multiple family residential on the Com-
prehensive Land Use Plan .
2 . Existing single family residences are located directly adja-
cent to the northerly boundary of the subject property and
immediately north of N . E . 6th St . Compatibility with the
existing single family uses will be of primary importance ,
when considering the subject rezone request . Compatibility
can be provided through various methods , including : less
intensive residential zoning and land uses near the existing
single family area , height controls , additional setbacks ,
access controls , greenbelt/buffer areas , screening , develop-
ment as a P . U . D. , and progressive reduction in densities
i . e . , the creation of transition zones ) . A combination
of all of these methods may be necessary for the subject
proposal .
3 . The same general site was considered for R-2 zoning in
March , 1975 , and created much citizen opposition from the
surrounding community . The rezone request was withdrawn
in May , 1975 .
4 . There is an existing half-street (Olympia Ave . N . E . ) ,
which extends into the northern portion of the subject
site from N . E . 6th St. Access from a multiple family
complex onto the existing single family residential street
will impact the existing residential area . Access controls
will be necessary . Also , the southerly 30 feet of N . E .
6th St . , adjacent to the subject site , has been dedi -
cated and improved .
5 . The Comprehensive Land Use Plan indicates multiple family
residential area adjacent to the existing business zoning
to the south . However , there is also a need to determine
how much multiple family is desirable , the relative density ,
the proper transition to single family uses to the north ,
and the character and quality of the eventual site develop-
ment .
P. PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend approval of R-3 zoning for the southerly 330 feet of
the subject site and R- 1 zoning on the remainder of the site
subject to the following conditions to be established as
restrictive covenants running with the land :
1 . DEVELOPMENT
Any and all development of the subject property shall be
subject to City of Renton approval and shall comply with
all the requirements of the Planned Unit Development Ordi -
nance , Chapter 27 , Title IV , ( Building Regulations ) of

RE : GERALD E . SCHNEIDER REZONE APPLICATION NO. R-028-77
F. PHYSICAL BACKGROUND:
1 . Topography : The subject site has a generally irregu-
lar topography with several knolls and
valleys throughout .
2 . Soils : Alderwood Gravelly Sandy Loam (AgC ) .
Permeability is moderately rapid in
surface layer and very slow in the sub-
strata . Runoff is slow to medium , and
hazard of erosion is moderate . This
soil is used for timber, pasture , and
for urban development .
3 . Vegetation : The site consists of brush and scrub
grass ground cover , together with
various sizes of Douglas Fir trees
scattered throughout the site .
4 . Wildlife : Existing vegetation on the site provides
suitable habitat for birds and small
mammals .
5 . Water : Surface water and streams are not
apparent on the site .
6 . Land Use : The subject site is presently undevel -
oped . However, it surrounds two exist-
ing single family residences located
adjacent to Monroe Ave . N . E . Existing
single family residential uses are
located directly north and east of the
subject site . The area south of the
subject site consists of undeveloped
property and various commercial uses .

west of the subject site across from
Monroe Ave . N . E .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS :
The area consists of a mixture of platted and sparsely developed
single family residences , together with certain amounts of unde-
veloped land and commercial uses . The subject site is within a
transitional area from the business uses and zoning along N . E .
4th St . to the single family residential community along and
north of N . E . 6th St . Careful consideration must be given in
creating a reasonable and compatible transition in development
intensity .
G. PUBLIC SERVICES :
1 . Water and Sewer: Existing in the area are a 10" water main
along Monroe Ave . N . E . , a 8" sewer main along Monroe Ave .
N . E . , and a 12" storm sewer along N . E . 4th St .

PAGE FIVE
RE : GERALD E . SCHNEIDER REZONE APPLICATION NO. R-028- 77
2 . BUILDING HEIGHT
No building or structure shall exceed a height of thirty-
five ( 35 ) feet .
3 . DENSITY
The maximum density within said southerly 330 feet shall not
exceed 20 units per acre .
4 . GREENBELT/BUFFER
A minimum 50 foot landscaped buffer area suitable for screen-
ing purposes shall be established between the multiple family
residential area and the single family residential area and
between the subject site and existing developed single family
residential property . Said buffer areas shall be included
in a detailed landscape plan for the total site development
subject to Planning Department approval at the time of
development plan review .
5 . ACCESS
Access from any multiple family development shall not be per-
mitted onto N . E . 6th Street .
6 . DEDICATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY
The northerly 30 feet of the westerly 630 feet of the subject
site shall be dedicated to the City and improved to City
requirements at the time of development of the subject
property .
7 . SETBACKS
No building or structure shall be located closer than 50 feet
to any existing developed single family residential lot .
8 . DURATION
These covenants shall run with the land and expire on Decem-
ber 31 , 2050 . It is further agreed and covenanted by the
undersigned that if a master plan for total development of
the property is not submitted to the City of Renton pursuant
to the Renton Planned Unit Development Ordinance within two
2 ) years and substantial construction begun within
three ( 3 ) years of the filing of these covenants , and said
construction and development diligently prosecuted toward
completion thereafter , the zoning of said property shall
without further City action revert back to the zoning which
existed prior to the filing of this document , and these
restrictive covenants shall become null and void . The term
substantial construction" shall mean the physical altera-
tion of the land for construction pursuant to City approved
development plans as per the abovementioned Planned Unit
Development Ordinance and a valid building permit , or con-
struction of required utilities for such development . The
abovementioned time periods may be extended for reasonable
cause upon written request to and approval by the Renton
Planning Department . Such reasonable cause shall include ,
but may not be limited to , the requirement of an environmental
impact statement pursuant to the State Environmental Policy
Act of 1971 .
The above recommendation is consistent with the existing
Comprehensive Plan for the area . It is also considered rea-
sonable in that it attempts to establish a progressive transi -
tion area from the business uses and zoning along N . E . 4th St .
to the single family residential community north along N . E .
6th St . The recommended zoning pattern and conditions will
ensure compatibility with the single family residential area ,
while the requirement for P . U . D . type development will allow
flexibility and created a smooth transition in density and
character of development .

2. The applicant ' s proposal would allow approximately 280
dwelling units in the medium density multiple area and 50
units in the low density multiple for a total of 330 units .
Reviewing the density allowed by the Comprehensive Plan ,
180 units of medium density and 40 units of single family
for a tctal of 220 dwelling units would be allowed .
3. Although the applicant ' s proposal provides a buffering of
uses between the business activities to the south of the
single family uses to the north, the proposal appears to
exceed the area and intensity of transitional uses envi -
sioned by the land use element .
4. Although the applicant ' s proposed rezoning would allow
about 130 units , the application , schematic site develop-
ment plan , and environmental checklist indicate that the
proposed use of the property is 156 dwelling units . The
proposed intensity of the zoning appears to exceed that
desired by the applicant to achieve the desired develop-
ment intensity of the property.
5. In addition to considering the specifics of the proposed
use , certain goals and policies adopted as a part of the
Comprehensive Plan must be considered. "A well balanced
community will reflect in its general layout the proper
application of planning principals . . . to guide growth pat-
terns , (and ) prevent land use incompatibilities and con-
flicts . " (Land Use Report 1965 , General Land Use Require-
ments , page 11 )
Residential districts should be free of. . . uses which
would be detrimental to the community and its residents . "
Land Use Report 1965, Residential , page 11 ) . "Prevent
blight by protecting residential and other exclusive
districts from the unwarranted infiltration of incom-
patible uses which would contribute to premature decay
and obsolescence, and prevent the development of orderly
growth patterns . Protect property values within the com-
munity for the benefit of its residents and property
owners , through the effective control of land use. "
Land Use Report, 1965 , Objectives 1 and 4, page 17 )
These policies clearly suggest that a graduation of
intensity of uses should occur in this area , commencing
at the existing B-1 , commercial , uses to the south and
extending to the single family, to the north. The land
use element of the Comprehensive Plan suggests that the
entire transitional area include approximately 200 dwelling
units .
6. One transitional alternative would be as illustrated in
K'
the Comprehensive Plan consisting of a 300± foot wide
strip of medium density with the remainder in single
family. This alternate appears to potentially conflict
with the policies identified in five above (Figure 2 ) .
A potentially more acceptable solution would consist of
a graduation from medium density to low density multiple
and finally to single family. Using this concept , begin-
ning at the north (existing south right-of-way line of
N . E. 6th Street ) , zoning for single family should be
provided to face the south side of N. E. 6th and back
onto single family homes on the south side of N. E. 6th
total depth 260 feet) . Due to existing single family
homes on Monroe Avenue , R-3 should not immediately abut

J . IMPACT ON THE NATURAL SYSTEMS:
Rezoning of the subject property will not have a direct
impact on the natural systems . However , eventual development may
require disturbance of soil and vegetation. through grading and
cutting and filling , increasing storm water runoff, and have an
effect on traffic and noise levels in the area .
K. SOCIAL IMPACTS:
Certain additional social interaction will be created through
eventual development of the site.
L. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION:-
The applicant ' s submitted rezoning application would allow
approximately 330 dwelling units . The applicant has proposed
a schematic plan proposing approximately 160 units .
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 prepared for the
rezoning only which is based upon` a reduction in density to
a maximum of 180 dwelling units , buffering existing single
family uses with medium and low density and retention of significant
foliage, and site details in the final development plan.
M. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS.CONTACTED:
1 . City of Renton Building Division .
2 . City of Renton Engineering Division .
3 . City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division .
4. City of Renton Utilities Division.
5. City of Renton Fire Department.
N. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION :
A vicinity map and a site map are attached.
O. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1 . The applicant proposes to rezone to R-2, low density multi -
family , the first 200 feet . south of N. E. 6th: Street and the
remaining 450 'feet south of N. E. 6th Street to R-3, medium
density multi -family. Comparing the proposal to the Land
Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan indicates that single
family uses will extend south of N. E . 6th Place approximately
300 - 350 feet with the remainder in medium density multiple
family. ( Figure 2 )

this area . By splitting the distance to the south property
line ( 120 feet) , three acres of R-3 is available. The re-
mainder of the site is appropriately designated R-2.
SUMMARY (FIGURE 2)
Single Family (north 260' ) 5 acres 25 units
Low Density Multiple 6 acres 65 units
Medium Density Multiple (south 120' ) = 3 acres 90 units
180 units
This alternative appears to meet the transitional and site
intensity objectives of the Comprehensive Plan , while meet-
ing the applicant ' s desired dwelling unit density .
Other alternatives consisting of similar acreage distribu-
tion exist; however, they may conflict with existing homes
surrounding the site (Figure 4) .
7 . The site has considerable topographic change from Monroe ,
over a knoll and then down into a. low area to the east.
In addition to the interesting topographic features , the
major vegetation on the site is also located on the higher
knoll area. The following Comprehensive Plan policies
relate to future site development :
Residential development may be successfully planned
to take good advantage of (site) amenities. Natural
features such as rock outcroppings , streams , stands
of native trees, and views . . . should be used to (the)
greatest advantage. " (Land Use Report , 1965 , General
Land Use Requirements : Residential , page 11 )
Therefore , the existing site amenities should be incorpora-
ted in any final development plan .
8. Traffic Engineering indicates that traffic circulation in
the area will be adversely affected until the traffic sig-
nal at N. E. 4th and Monroe is completed .
9. The Engineering Division indicates that storm water deten-
tion will be required. Off-site improvements will be
required on N. E. 6th and Monroe Ave. N. E. along with dedi -
cation. of 30 feet of right-of-way along N. E. 6th.
10. The Fire Department suggests that Olympia Avenue N . E. be
extended into the site.
11 . Downstream analysis of sanitary sewer capacity is needed ,
and extensions of public utilities will be necessary to
accommodate development .
12 . Other departmental comments are attached for consideration .
P . DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS :
BIsed upon the foregoing analysis , approval of the rezoning
application as follows :
a . The north 260 feet from S-1 to R-1 .
b. The south 120 feet from GS-1 to R-3
c . The intervening 280 feet from S-1 and GS-1 to R-2
See Figure 2 ) .

2 . Applicant : GERALD E . SCHNEIDER
3. Location :Approximately 600 ' north of
N . E. 4th Street on Monroe
Avenue N . E .
4. Legal Description : Detailed legal description
is available on file in the
Renton Planning 'Department.
5 . Size of Property:Approximately 14 acres .
6 . Access : Monroe Avenue N . E . and N . E .
6th St .
7 . Existing Zoning : GS-1 and S-1 ..
8 . Existing Zoning in the Area : GS-1 , S-1 , R-1 , and B-1 .
9 . Comprehensive Land Use Plan : Medium Density Multiple Family
on the southerly 350 ' of the
subject site and single family
residential on the northern
portion of the subject site .
10. Notification :The applicant was notified in
writing of the hearing date.
Notice was properly published
in the Record Chronicle on
January 5 , 1979 and posted in
three places on or near the
site as required by City
ordinance.
C . PURPOSE OF REQUEST :
Subject rezone to R-2 and R-3 classifications is to permit
future multiple family residential development on the site .
D . HISTORY/BACKGROUND:
An application for rezone to R-3 of a portion of the site was
submitted on February 5 , 1975 . A revised application to R-2
zoning was approved by the Planning Commission on March 26 , 1975 .
However , a group of area residents opposed the subject rezone and
appealed the decision to the City Council. The applicant withdrew
his application for R-2 zoning on May 12 , 1975 . A second application
was submitted on March 7 , 1977 for a request similar to that of

2. The applicant ' s proposal would allow approximately 280
dwelling units in the medium density multiple area and 50
units in the low density multiple for a total of 330 units .
Reviewing the density allowed by the Comprehensive Plan ,
180 units of medium density and 40 units of single family
for a tctal of 220 dwelling units would be allowed .
3., Although the applicant ' s proposal provides a buffering of
uses between the business activities to the south of the
single family uses to the north, the proposal appears to
exceed the area and intensity of transitional uses envi -
sioned by the land use element .
4.1 Although the applicant ' s proposed rezoning would allow
about 330 units ; the application , schematic site develop-
ment plan , and environmental checklist indicate that the
proposed use of the property is 156 dwelling units . The
proposed intensity of the zoning appears to exceed that
desired by the applicant to achieve the desired develop-
ment intensity of the property.
5. In addition to considering the specifics of the proposed
use , certain goals and policies adopted as a part of the
Comprehensive Plan must be considered. "A . well balanced
community will reflect in its general layout the proper
application of planning principals . . . to guide growth pat-
terns , (and ) prevent land use incompatibilities and con-
flicts . " (Land Use Report 1965 , General Land Use Require-
ments , page 11 )
Residential districts should be free of. . . uses which
would be detrimental to the community and its residents . "
Land Use Report 1965, Residential , page 11) . "Prevent
blight by protecting residential and other exclusive
districts from the unwarranted infiltration of incom-
patible uses which would contribute to premature decay
and obsolescence , and prevent the development of orderly
growth patterns . Protect property values within the com-
munity for the benefit of its residents and property
owners , through the effective control of land use. "
Land Use Report, 1965, Objectives 1 and 4 , page 17 )
These policies clearly suggest that a graduation of
intensity of uses should occur in this area , commencing
at the existing B-1 , commercial , uses to the south and
extending to the single family to the north. The land
use element of the Comprehensive Plan suggests that the
entire transitional area include approximately 200 dwelling
units.
6. One transitional alternative would be as illustrated in
the Comprehensive Plan consisting of a 300± foot wide
strip of medium density with the remainder in single
family. This alternate appears to potentially conflict
with the policies identified in five above (Figure 2 ) .
A potentially more acceptable solution would consist of
a graduation from medium density to low density multiple
and finally to single family. Using this concept , begin-
ping at the north (existing south right-of-way line of
N. E. 6th Street) , zoning for single family should be
provided to face the south side of N . E. 6th and back
onto single family homes on the south side of N. E . 6th
total depth 260 feet) . Due to existing single family
homes on Monroe Avenue , R-3 should not immediately abut

J . IMPACT ON THE NATURAL SYSTEMS :
Rezoning of the subject property will not have a direct
impact on the natural systems . However , . eventual development may
require disturbance of soil and vegetation. through grading and
cutting and filling , increasing storm water runoff , and have an
effect on traffic and noise levels in the area .
K. SOCIAL IMPACTS:
Certain additional social interaction will be created through
eventual development of the site.
L. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION :
The applicant ' s submitted rezoning application would allow
approximately 330 dwelling units. The applicant has proposed
a schematic plan proposing approximately 160 units .
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 prepared' for the
rezoning only which is based upon a reduction in density to
a maximum of 180 dwelling units , buffering existing single
family uses with medium and low density and retention of significant
foliage and site details in the final development plan .
M. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED:
1 . City of Renton Building Division.
2 . City of Renton Engineering Division.
3 . City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division.
4. City of Renton Utilities Division.
5 . City of Renton Fire Department.
N. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION :
A vicinity map and a site map are attached.
0. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS :
1 . The applicant proposes to rezone to R-2, low density multi -
family , the first 200 feet south of N. E. 6th Street and the
remaining 450 feet south of N. E. 6th Street to R-3 , medium
density multi -family. Comparing the proposal to the Land
Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan indicates that single
family uses will extend south of N. E. 6th Place approximately
300 - 350 feet with the remainder in medium density multiple
family. (Figure 2 )

this area . By splitting the distance to the south property
line ( 120 feet ) , three acres of R-3 is available. The re-
mainder of the site is appropriately designated R-2 .
SUMMARY (FIGURE 2)
Single Family (north 260' ) 5 acres 25 units
Low Density Multiple 6 acres 65 units
Medium Density Multiple (south 120' ) = 3 acres 90 units
180 units
This alternative appears to meet the transitional and site
intensity objectives of the Comprehensive Plan , while meet-
ing the applicant ' s desired dwelling unit density.
Other alternatives consisting of similar acreage distribu-
tion exist; however, they may conflict with existing homes
surrounding the site (Figure 4) .
7 . The site has considerable topographic change from Monroe,
over a knoll and then down into a low area to the east.
In addition to the interesting topographic features , the
major vegetation on the site is also located on the higher
knoll area. The following Comprehensive Plan policies
relate to future site development :
Residential development may be successfully planned
to take good advantage of (site) amenities . Natural
features such as rock outcroppings , streams , stands
of native trees , and views . . . should be used to (the)
greatest advantage. " (Land Use Report , 1965 , General
Land Use Requirements : Residential , page 11 )
Therefore , the existing site amenities should be incorpora-
ted in any final development plan.
8. Traffic Engineering indicates that traffic circulation in
the area will be adversely affected until the traffic sig-
nal at N. E. 4th and Monroe is completed .
9. The Engineering Division indicates that storm water deten-
tion will be required. Off-site improvements will be
required on N. E. 6th and Monroe Ave. N. E . along with dedi -
cation of 30 feet of right-of-way along N . E. 6th .
10. The Fire Department suggests that Olympia Avenue N . E. be
extended into the site.
11 . Downstream analysis of sanitary sewer capacity is needed ,
and extensions of public utilities will be necessary to
accommodate development .
12 . Other departmental comments are attached for consideration .
P . DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS :
Based upon the foregoing analysis , approval of the rezoning .
application as follows :
a . The north 260 feet from S-1 to R-1 .
b. The south 120 feet from GS-1 to R-3
c . The intervening 280 feet from S-1 and GS-1 to R-2
See Figure .2 ) .

This proposal has been determined to ® have 0 not have a
significant adverse impact upon the environment . An EIS 0 is
0 is not required under RCW 43 . 21C . 030 (2 ) (c ) . This decision was
made after review by the lead agency of a completed environmental
checklist and other information on file with the lead agency .
Reasons for declaration of environmental significance :
This declaration of non-significance is for rezoning only, which is based
upon a reduction in density to a maximum of 180 dwelling units, buffering
existing single family uses with medium and low density and retention of
significant foliage and site details in the final development plan.
Measures , if any , that could be taken to prevent or mitigate the
environmental impacts to such an extent that the lead agency would
withdraw its declaration of significance and issue a (proposed/final )

RENTON, WASHINGTON
We, the undersigned residents of N.E. 6th Street, Renton, Wa. ,
are deeply concerned over the proposed property rezone now before you.
We do—not want to stop development, but we will be effected by
the development . We live here and will suffer from overcrowed streets ,
traffic congestion, loss of play area for our children, possible water
and runoff problems, noise pollution, increased need for police and
fire protection, to mention only a few.
Many of us moved from apartments and other crowded areas and
invested a great deal of money in our present homes . We do not wish
to move again to get away from conditions that could become intolerable .
We feel that development should be based on the quality of life
for all concerned. ,; Overcrowding ispot quality living and must be
avoided. Development plans should"Ve based on the maximum amount of
money that can be made by the developer and/or the city through taxes .
4
The comprehensive plan calls for an area of single family residential
directly south of N.E. 6th Street and a strip of R3 or multiple family
on the south side of the property. We have discussed and examined the
possible rezone alternatives and have decided that for the above reasons
we believe any rezone should be in strict accord with the Renton
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
We believe that for the most part the plan is acceptable and
should be followed. We can support a rezone that is in accordance with
it .
In addition we are convinced that the development of this property
could result in water runoff problems due to the particular way in which
storm water is drained from President Park. The 'fore, we also insist
that restrictive covenants state that the developer is solely responsible
for the storm water runoff that is presently drained onto the property
and no L. I. D. or other assessment can ever be made on surrounding.,
residents for costs incurred because of the storm runoff.
We also ask that a representative from our community be included
in, and have an active voice in the development of, and the final approval
of the site plans for this property . In addition, we ask that the
restrictions of the City of Renton as to the preservation of trees in
the proposed development be part of the restrictive covenant .

We do not want to stop development, but we will be effected by
the development . We live here and will suffer from overcrowed streets ,
traffic congestion, loss of play area for our children, possible water
and runoff problems, noise, pollution, increased need for police and
fire protection, to mention only a few.
Many of us moved from apartments and 'other crowded areas and
invested a great deal of money in our present homes . We do not wish.
to move again to get away, from conditions that could become intolerable .
We feel that development should be based on the quality of life
for all 'concerned. • Overcrowding is, ot quality living and must be
avoided. Development plans` shouldnoe based on the maximum amount of
money that can be made by the developer and/or the city through taxes .
The comprehensive plan calls for an area of single family residential
directly south of:N.E. 6th Street and a strip of R3 or multiple family
on the south side of the property. We have discussed and examined the
possible rezone alternatives and have decided that for the above reasons
we believe any rezone should be in strict accord with the Renton
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
We believe that for the most part the plan is acceptable and
should be followed. We can support a rezone that is in accordance with
it .
In addition we are convinced that the development of this property
could result in water runoff problems due to the particular way in which
storm water is drained from President Park. Therfore, we also insist
that restrictive covenants state that the developer is solely responsible
for the storm water runoff that is presently drained onto the property
and no L. I.D. or other assessment can ever be made on surrounding
residents for costs incurred because of the storm runoff.
We also ask that a representative from our community be included
in, and have an active voice in the development of, and the final approval
of the site plans for this property . In addition, we ask that the
restrictions of the •City of Renton as to the preservation of trees in
the proposed development be part of the restrictive covenant .

Hearing Examiner

Renton, WA 98055
Subject: Gerald E. Schneider hearing, January 16, 1979
Dear Mr. Beeler:
I would like you to consider our objection to the final zoning scheme (Fig. #4)
endorsed by Mr. Clemens of the City Planning Department.
Endorsement of this scheme at the very last minute of the meeting caught us
by surprise, without sufficient time to weigh the possible impact. It now
appears to us that it could prejudice future P.U.D. hearing participants,
forcing us to use building arrangements and development access to conform to
the adopted zoning scheme.
We strongly support the zoning scheme originally recommended by the Planning
Department (Fig. #3) , one which meets all the requirements of the January
16th hearing participants and a scheme which allows us to spread the units and
provide access as shown on our site plan.
I respectfully request that you consider this information in rendering your
decision.
Sincerely,,
4- R'Z
Gerald E. Schneider

Referencing Section E.5 of Exhibit #1, which states that surface water and streams are
not apparent on the site, Mr. Clemens indicated that according to residents in the
surrounding neighborhood, standing water is evident in small valleys on the property.
Referencing Section 0.8 regarding future installation of a traffic signal at the
intersection of N.E. 4th Street and Monroe Avenue N.E. , Mr. Clemens reported that
completion of signalization will occur within the next two to three months.
Prior to accepting testimony, the Examiner disclosed that he is an acquaintance of the
architect retained by the applicant, although• no discussion regarding the application ,
had occurred, with that individual prior to the hearing and the relationship. would not •
interfere with the Examiner's ability to provide an objective decision on the request.
He inquired if parties in attendance objected to proceeding with the hearing upon receipt
of the disclosure. There was no objection.
The Examiner asked the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1. Responding was:
Gerald E. Schneider
6510 Southcenter Boulevard
Tukwila, WA 98188
Mr. Schneider indicated concurrence in the report. He inquired if the submitted site
plan, Exhibit #2, would be acceptable in view of zoning proposed by the Planning Department
on the site. Mr. Clemens indicated that because Exhibit #2 is. a schematic Planned Unit
Development Plan, .proposed density and land use had.been reviewed conceptually, but more
specific detail including location of proposed structures would be required. The Examiner
advised that a specific site plan is not usually provided in a rezone application because
development would then be required to conform to the submitted plan at a later date. Mr.
Schneider requested clarification of the Planned Unit Development process in an..R-1
zoning category. The Examiner explained the provisions of the P.U.D. Ordinance which
would be required in the R-1 zoning category as well as the' R-2 zone if more than two
units are attached.. He also indicated that the special permit process may be utilized
as an alternative process in the R-2 zone. Mr. Schneider.inquired if the process would
be conducted administratively or would require further public hearings. The Examiner
indicated that a P.U.D. request would require both a. preliminary and final public hearing,.
although only one hearing would be required for a special permit.
Mr. Schneider objected to provision of a 'street on the southern boundary of the proposed
R-1 zoning due to inadequate, roadway width to provide a cul-de-sac for proper vehicle
turnaround area. He referenced a requirement for retention of significant natural
topographic and vegetative areas in the final site plan arrangement per the Planning
Department recommendation, and indicated that due to the necessity of a substantial
amount of grading and filling in the lower areas of the subject site, ' it would be
difficult to meet the requirement. He also stated that substantial trees exist in the
northeast corner of the site but other vegetation was immature and would probably not
survive as a result of grading activity. Mr. Schneider inquired if extension of Olympia
Avenue N.E. would be required during the rezone process in response to Fire Department
comments attached to Exhibit #1. Mr. Clemens indicated that comments from the Fire'
Department would apply during site plan development to provide access along N.E. 6th .
Street near Olympia Avenue N.E. He noted that if the proposal were developed through
the P.U.D. process which combines allowable density, the proposed access may be utilized
for emergency vehicles only.
The Examiner requested a King County Assessor's Map to be entered as part of the record
following closure of the public hearing. The map was entered as follows by the Examiner:
Exhibit #8: King County Assessor's Map
The Examiner requested further testimony in support of the application. Responding was:
Roger H. Newell
1102 19th Avenue East
Seattle, WA 98112
Mr. Newell was affirmed by the Examiner. As architect for the proposal, he indicated
concurrence in Exhibit #1 but inquired if the Planning Department recommendation would
require -utilization of the P.U.D. process for development. Mr. Clemens advised that
only the zoning pattern was being recommended by the department, not a development
process. Mr. Newell commented that due to widths of zoned land, separate development
is difficult to design. He noted that although existing contours of the land would be
considered in site development, substantial grading must occur. He also reported the
applicant's concern regarding restriction of traffic to the north of the site and
questioned the staff comment from the Fire Department requesting such access onto N.E.
6th Street.

OFFICE OF THE LA11D USE HEARING EXAMINER
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL.
APPLICANT: Gerald E. Schneider FILE NO.. R-271-78
LOCATION: Approximately 600 feet north:of N.E. 4th Street on Monroe..:!:.-.":'. -
Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests rezone from GS-1 and S-1 to R-2 and R-3
to allow development of low to medium density multi-family
housing.
SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Approval with conditions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Hearing Examiner: Approval with restrictive covenants.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received by the
REPORTi Examiner on January 10, 1979.
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 January 16, 1979 at '9:05 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the
Renton Municipal Building.
Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
For the benefit of those in attendance, the Examiner read into the record three specific
circumstances contained in Section 4-3014 of the Hearing Examiner ordinance of which'one
must exist in order to grant a rezone; including 1) that substantial evidence was presented
demonstrating the subject reclassification appears not to have been specifically
considered at the time of the first area land use analysis and area zoning; 2) that the
property is potentially zoned for the reclassification being requested pursuant to the
policies set forth in the Comprehensive Plan and conditions have been met which would
indicate the change is appropriate; or 3) that since the last previous land.use analysis
of the area zoning of the subject property, authorized public improvements, permitted
private development or other circumstances affecting the subject property have undergone
significant and material change.
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.
Prior to review of Exhibit #1, David Clemens, Associate Planner, disclosed that he had
recently purchased from the applicant's company a single family residence located outside
of the. Renton city limits. He indicated that since he had not met the applicant personally;
discussion regarding the application with him had not occurred, and inquired if parties in
attendance objected to proceeding with the hearing upon receipt of the disclosure. There
was no objection. The Examiner requested confirmation that the staff report is a product
of joint review by several Planning Department staff members. Mr. Clemens responded
affirmatively. .
Mr. Clemens reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered. the following additional exhibits into the
record:
Exhibit #2: Schematic Site Plan
Exhibit #3: Topography Map
Exhibit #4: Illustration of Applicant's Proposed Rezone
Exhibit #5: Illustration of the Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan for the Immediate Property
Exhibit #6: Illustration of Staff's Recommended Zoning
Exhibit #7: Illustration of Alternate Staff Recommendation

Responding was:
Sandra Keyashian.
3404 N.E. 6th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mrs. Keyashian indicated that the proposed rezone would result in a sacrifice of quality
of life for many residents for the economic gain of a few, and emphasized that the
existing N.E. 6th Street is inadequate at the present time. . She stated her opinion that
the alternative proposal contained in Exhibit #7 appears to be the only acceptable plan.
Responding was:
Doug. Sweeney
3617 N.E. 6th Street
Renton, WA 98055 '
Mr. Sweeney expressed concern that existing residents would be assessed for sewer, water
or replacement of streets as a result of the proposed development. .He indicated his
support for alternative zoning plan, Exhibit #7.
Responding was:
Sandra Robinson
3605 N.E. .6th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mrs. Robinson requested consideration of the requests of existing residents by the
applicant since it would not be possible for most of them to establish new residency
out of the.area.
Responding was:
Jeanette Mayer
3712 N.E. 7th Street
Renton, WA . 98055
Although Mrs. Mayer supported retention of the area as it is, she indicated willingness
to accept Exhibit #7 as proposed. She objected to overdevelopment of the area and future
deprivation of play areas for children who currently utilize the site. Mrs. Mayer advised
that the subject property provides 'a natural habitat for many animals and birds. She
expressed concern that due to lack of sidewalks in the area, children would utilize the
streets for play which creates a dangerous situation. She also noted that existing
apartment complexes in the area have experienced a fast rate of deterioration and a
high volume of police calls.
Mr. Jacobs inquired if residents should take for granted that one of the proposed plans
would be accepted or if the alternative exists for disapproval of the rezone. The
Examiner explained that the burden to substantiate the request for rezone rests with
the applicant, and following closure of the public hearing .the Examiner will weigh all
of the evidence and provide a recommendation to the City Council to make a final .
determination on the matter. He then called a recess at 10:30 .a.m. The meeting was
reconvened. at 1G:55 a.m.
The Examiner requested testimony from a representative of the Traffic Engineering Division.
Responding was:
Clint Morgan
Traffic Engineering Division
Mr. 'Morgan was affirmed by the Examiner. The Examiner explained residential concerns
regarding traffic problems at the intersection of N.E. 4th Street and Monroe Avenue N.E. , •
and inquired regarding the impact of installation,of a traffic signal within the next
two to three months. Mr. Morgan reported that left-turn accidents will be alleviated,
and safer, easier access will be provided to and from Monroe Avenue N.E. during peak
traffic hours.
The Examiner requested comments from Mr. Clemens. Mr. Clemens emphasized that although
the Planning Department was not requiring utilization of the P.U.D. process 'of the
applicant, the method of development was suggested as an approach which could be
reviewed with 'the department. He advised that an alternative method of development for
the single family and R-2 zones could be accomplished by the platting process, and
acquisition of a building permit could be obtained for development of the R-3 zone.
Mr. Clemens also indicated concern that grading proposals provide for control to maintain • '
the general physical character of the site and retain the existing natural vegetation of
significance. Regarding traffic impact 'in the area as a result of the future development,
Mr. Clemens stated that the existing 4800 vehicle' trips per day would be increased by
1100 trips with construction of additional residences consisting of approximately one-
fourth ,of the total' trips to the north and three-fourths to the south with a proposed
increase of 12 to. 15% at the intersection of N.E. 4th Street and Monroe Avenue N.E.
R-271-78 Page, Three
The Examiner requested testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was:
John Tilton
3511 N.E. 6th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Tilton indicated that residents in the community had met and studied the proposal
and agreed that recommended zoning should not allow higher intensity than the proposed
number of units on the site since the immediate area is already overdeveloped. with small
lots, narrow streets, and inadequate driveways_. He indicated that the majority of
business owners and residents located south of the subject site support the Planning '
Department alternate zoning recommendation, Exhibit #7, which would be in conformance
with the Comprehensive Plan for the area and would provide compatibility with the single
family residential area .to the east of the site as well as create a better designed
development. Mr. Tilton summarized the residential preference for alternate zoning
contained in Exhibit #7 by stating that the plan would allow a proper transition of
zoning in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, maintain a fairly wide strip of single
family residential zoning, allow a large section of R-2 zoning in the low area on the
eastern portion of the site, and restrict heavy traffic from N.E. 6th Street onto Monroe
Avenue N.E. He submitted proposed restrictive covenants supported •by residents regarding
the proposed development. The covenants were entered as follows by the Examiner:
Exhibit #9: Restrictive Covenants Proposed by Mr. Tilton
The covenants recommend that access be restricted from the R-3 or R-2 zoning areas on
the site onto N.E. 6th Street and all access be limited to Monroe Avenue N.E. ; all R-3
and R-2 zones be fenced with seven-foot chain link, slatted fencing to separate single
family residential areas, and construction cleanup will be the responsibility of the
developer; provision for .storm water drainage from President,Park.community to the
and agreement that existing residents would; hot be assessed for such•provision; ordinances
pertaining to the preservation of trees on the site be strictly enforced; only access
from single family residential areas be allowed onto N.E. 6th Street because of the '
narrow configuration; and request that a community representative be a member of a
committee to review and approve the final site plan. Mr. Tilton also submitted a letter
and petition from existing residents in the area. The letters were entered as follows
by the Examiner:
Exhibit #10: Letters from Residents
The Examiner requested, further testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: '
Philip Nangle
614 Queen Avenue N.E.
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Nangle expressed concern that existing topography would be altered which may result
in an extension of Olympia Avenue N.E. to the site, and inquired if N.E. 6th Street would„
be widened. He reported that a real estate agent had recently purchased property east- ,..
of the proposal and would provide access to the subject development. Mr. Clemens
indicated that the half-street that exists between Monroe and Olympia Avenue N.E. would
be developed to a full street, and the applicant would be responsible for the lower,
western portion. Mr. Nangle. expressed concern regarding existence of dry timber adjacent
to the site during the summer months and the necessity for adequate fire protection..
Responding was:
Norman Jacobs
550 Monroe Avenue N.E.
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Jacobs reported existing problems of backing vehicles from his driveway due to heavy
traffic volumes on Monroe Avenue N.E. , and noted that problems would be increased with
the proposed development. He inquired regarding requirements for rezoning his property..
The Examiner advised that Mr. Jacobs would be required to submit a separate application
in order to request rezone of. his own property.
Responding was:
Nola Tilton
3511 N.E. 6th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mrs. Tilton indicated support of Exhibit #7 as a viable plan for future development. She
expressed concern regarding protection of the quality of life, for residents .in the area
and cited problems created by inadequate parks, heavy traffic, speeding vehicles, inadequate
crosswalk protection, and narrow streets which would increase -with proposed development. .
R-271-78 Page Six
be reviewed by the Planning Department prior to commencement of activity on the site.
He indicated that such review be accomplished by the Hearing Examiner if subsequent
public hearings for the P.U.D. or special permit process are held. The Examiner
summarized the revised Planning Department recommendation for proposal of Exhibit #7
as well as all conditions outlined in the Planning Department recommendation contained
in Exhibit #1. He also advised for the benefit of Mr. Jacobs that any development of
the site would require installation of off-site improvements along Monroe Avenue N.E.
which may improve sight-distance on that roadway.
The Examiner requested further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on File No.
R-271-78 was closed by the Examiner at 11:30 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 reclassification of approximately 14 acres from
GS-1 and S-1 to R-2 and R-3 to permit multifamily development of about 160
residential 'units.
2. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, applicable policies
and provisions', findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter,
is uncontested, 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,
based upon a reduction in density to a.maximum of 180 dwelling units, buffering
existing single family uses with medium and low density and retention of significant
foliage and site details in the final development plan.
4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the
impact of this development.
5. All existing utilities are available and in close proximity.
6. The proposal is compatible with the required lot area and dimensions of Sections
4-708 (R-2) and 4-709A (R-3) of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General
Ordinances.
7. Previous area wide Comprehensive Plan analysis occurred in 1965. Some general area
Comprehensive Plan analysis also occurred during the period of 1966 to 1968
Section. 4-3014. (A) ) . The Planning Commission is currently reviewing the Comprehensive
Plan for this area.
8. The Comprehensive Plan Land .Use Map indicates the southerly one-half of the property
to potentially be medium density multiple family and the northerly one-half to be
single family (Section 4-3014. (B) ) .
9. Within two to three months, installation of a' traffic signal will be completed at
the intersection of N.E. 4th Street and Monroe Avenue N.E. (Section 4-3014. (C) ) ,
which is expected to lessen back-up on Monroe Avenue N.E. and traffic accidents.
10. Concerned citizens expressed their opposition to the applicant's proposed rezone
and their agreement with the alternative reclassification (Exhibit #7) offered by
staff. This alternative was acceptable to the applicant, who subsequent to the
public hearing submitted the attached letter of January 18, 1979, objecting to
Exhibit #7 and favoring Exhibit #6.
11. Storm drainage and grading plans were of concern to adjacent residents. These
specific plans are a part of the normal review of the development proposal whether
through the building permit process or public review of the site plan or planned
unit development.
12. The applicant's proposed access to N.E. 6th Street was not acceptable to the area
residents. An emergency access to N.E. 6th Street was recommended by the Fire
Department but opposed by the applicant. This issue is most appropriately handled
in review of specific development plans.
13. The northerly abutting development of President Park and the northerly one-half of
the site is zoned S-1 which permits a single family lot. of 44,000 square feet or 7200
square feet depending on interpretation of the zoning regulations that conflict in
this matter. Existing GS-1 on the approximate southerly one-half of and east of the

R-271-78 Page Five
The Examiner requested the applicant to respond to previous testimony from residents:
Mr. Schneider objected to imposition of restrictive covenants on a rezone request, but
indicated his willingness to provide fencing of his choice, storm water detention systems
which would be ,enforced administratively by. thePublic Works Department, and existing
vegetation required to be removed would be replaced with supplemental landscaping. He
indicated he did not object to allowing a representative of the community to review the
final site plan, but felt that the final determination remained a matter between the .city
and the developer. He reviewed access alternatives from the R-2 zoning district, and '
did not feel that it would be possible to obtain access as recommended by the Fire
Department .to N.E: '6th, Street. He also indicated: that an alternative access at the. ,:';
northern end of_ the: si.te ,onto Monroe Avenue ,N.E.`'would not be in conformance with city '
standards due to the proximity to N.E. 6th Street. Mr. Schneider advised that he was
not aware of future plans for dedication of access at the eastern end of the :site. The
Examiner asked Mr. Clemens to.review future plans ,for improvement of Monroe Avenue N.E.
Mr. Clemens indicated that improvement of the roadway toa full 60-foot, two-lane
collector street containing curbs, gutters and sidewalks is included in the city's Six-
Year Streets and Arterials Plan, although he was uncertain of the exact timing of the
project.
The• Examiner requested further comments. Mr. Roger Newell noted that the testimony of
residents did not indicate opposition to the rezone since almost .100% supported the
alternative zoning contained in Exhibit #7, but that concerns related to potential
problems which could be created by development of a proposal on the property,. such as
traffic, access, screening, retention .of vegetation and architecture. Mr. Newell
indicated that he would bewilling to accept input from residents regarding the site
proposal and noted that if the P.U.D. process were utilized, further opportunity for
input would be available to residents during subsequent public hearings. He advised that
the proposal would be oriented towards family living .to perpetuate the existing,
neighborhood character, and.preferred. es.tablishing conditions of .development, rather: than
restrictive:covenants on the rezone.
Mr. John Tilton reiterated previous comments regarding placement of restrictions upon the
land to assure mitigation of. residential concerns. He also indicated his opinion that.
the applicant had not satisfied the requirement' of proof that a rezone should occur. Mr.
Schneider stated that due to the location of the property between a single. family
residential area and commercial property, a rezone is required to provide development
compatibility and justify cost of the land. The Examiner referred to the applicant's
concurrence with Exhibit #1 at commencement of the hearing and inquired if concurrence
applied to the staff analysis or the recommendation contained in the report. Mr.
Schneider indicated that his concurrence pertained to the recommendation. Mr. Newell
stated that, due to a strong demand for housing. in' the Puget Sound area and the high .
purchase price of homes, the rezone and subsequent development provided a residential
alternative for the community and would establish a buffer between single family
residential areas and business zoning to the south of the site. He noted that development
of single family lots on the site would have occurred in the past 'if existing zoning were
considered appropriate for development. .
Mrs. Nola Tilton objected to consideration ,of multiple family development as a reasonable
housing alternative for families with children, and felt that sufficient multiple family
development exists in the Renton Highlands area:
The Examiner referenced Section L. of Exhibit #1 pertaining to environmental assessment/
threshold determination of the proposed development and inquired if an Environmental
Impact Statement would be required if more than 180 units were proposed on the site.
Mr. Clemens responded affirmatively. The Examiner inquired if the previous request for
rezone, File No. R-028-77, had been abandoned by the applicant. Mr. Clemens indicated
staff's opinion that submission of a new application in effect withdrew the previous
application,. The Examiner requested confirmation, from the applicant. Mr. Schneider
concurred with Mr. Clemens' interpretation.
The Examiner inquired regarding the date of the last area wide zoning or land use analysis : , •
in the immediate area. Mr. Clemens reported that the last area wide analysis was
accomplished in 1965 at the time of adoption' of the Comprehensive Plan for the City of
Renton. He also advised that rezoning analysis of properties located to the south and
east of the subject site had occurred in the past and the area is currently being studied •
by the Planning Commission in review of the Comprehensive Plan for, the. northeast_quadrant„
of the community. He noted that geheralized. Comprehensive Plan analysis had occurred
between 1966 and 19'68,
The Examiner requested a final ,recommendation from the Planning Department. Mr. Clemens
indicated that in consideration of the desires of the community and the analysis performed
by the. Planning _Department, the alternative zoning proposal contained in Exhibit #7 was
recommended by the department, and would concentrate medium density, R-3, zoning in the
southwest corner of the site. He also 'recommended that topography and .vegetated areas '
be preserved as conditions of the rezone,' and actual grading and vegetation removal plans
R-271-78 Page Eight
GS-1 property. R-2 (Exhibit #7) is more appropriate at that location and abutting
the westerly adjacent GS-1 and S-1 property.
Both recommendations utilize R-1 (minimum 7200 square foot lots) to buffer and form
transition from the northerly abutting S-i zoned and developed property. The
allowable density of S-1 is uncertain depending upon one's interpretation of the
zoning regulations ranging from 7200 to 40,000' square foot lot sizes. But
President Park has been platted and developed into approximately 5,000 square, foot
lots. This intense of single family development is not permitted in the city's
zoning regulations but was probably permitted while the property.was within King
County and prior to annexation. Therefore, the R-1 appears to be an appropriate
response to the approximately 5,000 square foot lot size development: • S-1 'might
also be appropriate if it weren't for the ambiguous and conflicting density
limitations.
It appears that either alternative does not form the optimum transition and graduation
of land use intensity. Only slight modifications to each alternative would produce
the optimum reclassification configuration desired by the Comprehensive Plan per
Conclusion No. 2.
For the aforementioned reasons it appears most appropriate that Exhibit #6 be the
configuration of the. reclassification subject to some mitigating conditions. The
R-3 zone should be enlarged to 150 feet to provide sufficient land area for
additional site planning flexibility. To sufficiently buffer the easterly GS-1
zoned properties, the easterly 100 feet should be preserved in open space for
landscape 'screening and to a lesser extent. recreational uses. The easterly 50
feet of the R-2 zone should be utilized in the same way as a buffer of the GS-1
zones on the eastern and western portion of the R-2 area (Objectives No. 1, 4 and
6, pages 17 and 18, Comprehensive Plan, Land Us,e Report, July, 1965) .
4. The applicant's proposal is for approximately 160 individual dwelling units on the
property. Staff's recommended density .(Exhibits #6 and 7) is approximately 180
dwelling units. The aforementioned Examiner's conclusion would permit slightly
greater density. Due to the unique topography of the site (Exhibit #3) and required
excavation .and grading operations, it appears appropriate that the maximum density
be established at 180 units (Objectives No. 1, and 4, page 17, Comprehensive Plan,
Land Use Report, July, 1965) .
5. The existing area of substantial vegetation at the northeastern portion of the
site and any other suitable vegetation should be retained as much as possible to
maintain a buffer between the development and existing residences and single family
property. This would protect the property values of these residences through
effective land use control ( page 17, Objective No. '4, Comprehensive Plan, Land
Use Report, July, 1965) .
6. Access to and from the site may or may not significantly affect the surrounding
properties. Since the applicant will be required to dedicate and improve an
additional southerly 30 feet of right-of-way for N.E. 6th Street, it is reasonable
for the applicant- to utilize 'this street for access from at least the northern
single family portion of the proposed development. Public review of access to
N.E. 6th Street will occur since at least preliminary and final plat applications
will be required of any single family subdivision per the Subdivision Ordinance.
The R-2 portion of the proposal will require public review if a density approaching,
but less than, 11 units per acre is proposed. The R-3 zone, may necessitate only a
building permit without a public hearing. A Planned Unit Development for any portion
or all of the property will require preliminary and final plan public hearings.
The most logical resolution of ,the access question lies in coordination of a
circulation system among.all portions of the proposed development. However,
insufficient justification has been given to warrant so conditioning the
reclassification. Sufficient flexibility exists to address the question in the
Subdivision Ordinance, building permit process, or Planned Unit Development Ordinance.
7. The Planned Unit Development approach is very logical for the property. Needed
flexibility of building arrangements, setbacks, open spaces, landscaping, etc. are
available in the Planned Unit Development Ordinance that are not available in other
development approaches. However, perhaps an equally acceptable development could
be accomplished through the Subdivision Ordinance (R-1 zone) , building permit
process (R-2 and/or R-3 zone) and special permit process (R-2 zone) . The record
does not clearly establish that the approval of the rezone should be conditioned
upon utilization of the Planned Unit Development process.
R-271-78 Page Seven
the subject site allows individual single family lots of 35,000 square feet. South
of and abutting the property is B-1 zoning with small parcels of L-1 and T zoning.
Development of slight intense commercial enterprises has occurred south of the .
subject site. President Park is fully developed in approximately 5,000 square foot
lots adjacent to the property, and the easterly single family area is underdeveloped
with only scattered residences. The Renton Vocational Technical School is located
west of the proposal and across Monroe Avenue N.E.
14. The previous rezone application, heard and,continued.indefinitely by the Examiner.
File No. R-028-77) , has been withdrawn by the applicant and is no longer active.
15. Traffic expected from the proposal will increase the volume at the intersection of
N.E. 4th Street and Monroe Avenue N.E. approximately 12 to 15%.
16. Although not made a part of the recommendation, staff suggested that the applicant
utilize the Planned Unit Development Ordinance for the proposal.
17. The proposed reclassification would yield an ultimate density of approximately 330
units; however, the proposed site plan (Exhibit #2) indicates only 156 units. Staff's
recommendation (Exhibit #6) and alternate (Exhibit #7) would yield approximately
180 units. All parties appeared comfortable with a total of 160 units on the subject
property.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. Sufficient justification has not been .presented to substantiate that the original
proposal conforms to the Comprehensive, Plan (Section 4-3014. (B) ) . Evidence was not
submitted demonstrating' that this proposal was. not considered during previous area
land use and zoning analysis (Section 4-3014. (A) ) . Testimony has not addressed '
the impact of public and/or private improvements upon the property since previous
area land use and zoning analysis (Section 4-3014. (C) ) .
2. Sufficient demonstration has been made to conclude that the Planning Department
recommendation (Exhibit #6) and alternate recommendation (Exhibit #7) conform to
the Comprehensive Plan (Section 4-3014. (B) ) . These rezone configurations represent
an orderly and well planned use of the land—"1 which are more reasonable,
logical and within appropriate land use principles2 than the Comprehensive Plan Land
Use Map. This map is only a ". . .general design for future growth."3
The, rezone configurations and attendant density of 180 units appears to form a
graduated intensity of land uses, an appropriate land use principle.4 They also
do not unduly, unexpectedly or unreasonably contribute to ". . .overcrowding influences,
and) arterial traffic. . . ".5 The density is within the guideline of the Comprehensive
Plan of 220 units.6

3. The alternate recommendation (Exhibit #7) places less intense R-2 zoning adjacent
to the easterly GS-1 zoned property but more intense R-3 zoning against the westerly
abutting GS-1 zoned property which the proposal surrounds on three sides. However,.
the GS-1 density of apprxoimately one unit per acre. is almost the lowest single family:
density zoning .category. The contrast between R-2 (maximum of less than 11 units
per acre) and GS-1 could be substantial without other considerations. In addition,
R-2 is located adjacent to the southerly B-1 zoned property where normally a more
intense zoning category would be situated.
The recommendation of staff (Exhibit #6) places R-3 adjacent to the southerly
abutting B-1 zone, which is appropriate transition to occur on the subject site.
However, at the eastern portion of the. site it is inappropriate for R-3 to abut
R-271-78 Page Nine
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of configuration of Exhibit #6, subject to:
1. The southerly 150 feet of the property being rezoned to R-3.
2. The easterly 100 feet of the R-3 zone being a landscaped buffer area with some
recreation facilities per approval of the Planning Department or the Examiner if
a subsequent public hearing is held.
3: The easterly 'and westerly 50 feet of the R-2 zone abutting single family zoned
property being preserved in a landscaped buffer area with some recreation facilities'
per approval of the Planning Department or the Examiner if a subsequent public
hearing is held.
4. A maximum total overall density of 180 individual dwelling units on the subject site.
5. Preservation of as much of the existing vegetation as possible. Clearing of existing
vegetation and grading shall conform to approved development and occur after approval
of site plans.
6. Incorporation of these conditions in and completion of restrictive covenants.
7. Compliance with all other applicable ordinances and regulations of the City of Renton.

Mr. L. Rick Beeler
Hearing Examiner
200 Mill Ave. So.
Renton, WA 98055
Subject: Gerald E. Schneider hearing, January 16, 1979
Dear Mr. Beeler:
I would like you to consider our objection to the final zoning scheme (Fig. #i4)
endorsed by Mr. Clemens_of the City Planning Department.
Endorsement of this scheme at the very last minute of the meeting caught us
by surprise, without sufficient time to weigh the possible impact. It now
appears to us that it could prejudice future P.U.D. hearing participants,
forcing us to use building arrangements and development access to conform to
the adopted zoning scheme.
We strongly support. the zoning scheme originally recommended by the Planning
Department (Fig. #E3) , one which meets all the requirements of the January
16th hearing participants .and a scheme which allows us to spread the units and
provide access as shown on our site plan.
I respectfully request that you consider this information in rendering your
decision.
Sincerely,
Gerald E. Schneider
President

The Examiner asked Mr. Knotts, representing the applicant, if he wished
to speak on the application. Responding was :
Roger Knotts
3508 S. 180th
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Knotts asked Mr. Smith if clustered multiple family units may be
constructed in an R-1 zone under the PUD Ordinance, and inquired about
the density requirement. Mr. Smith indicated multiple family units
may be constructed and reported that the density for the R-3 zone,
which is contained in the southerly 330 feet of the site, would be
limited to 20 units per acre with units limited to 7 units per acre
in the R-1 zone. He stated that in both zoning designations , clustering,
would be allowed for placement on the site. Mr. Knotts indicated that
his primary concern was , the setback requirement on the north portion
of the site and stated that while 25 foot setbacks were required on
other boundaries , a 50 foot setback had been required on the northern
portion. Mr. Smith reported that requirement had been imposed because
of the existence of two residences to the west of the site and also
from a design consideration because of a requirement for open space
which will create an attractive addition to the development.
Mr. Knotts felt that a 50 foot setback from an existing single family
residential zone to another single family zone was restrictive. He
indicated that under the proposed staff recommendation the site would
be required to be developed under the PUD Ordinance and objected to
the restricted density from 30 to 20 units. Mr. Smith noted that the
department felt that 30 units would be overly dense in relation to
existing single family residences to the north. Mr. Knotts indicated
that the proposal in the R-3 zone would be acceptable , but objected
to setbacks for 20 units in an R-1 zone as being restrictive, and
reported the desire to consider another 110 feet on the north property.
The Examiner asked for further testimony in favor of the application.
Responding was :
George Pasco
1900 N.E. 16th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Pasco asked if it was the past practice of the Planning Department
to require 50 foot setbacks for multiple family residential zoning
abutting a single family residential area. Mr. Smith indicated that
the requirement is part of rezone requests in areas where a suitable
transition is required to protect the existing single family residential
area and reported that a 50 foot setback would be an acceptable
minimum. Mr. Pasco asked if the proposed request is the first PUD
established in the city. Mr. Smith indicated that it was the second
such request. Mr. Pasco felt that the PUD Ordinance was adopted with
the understanding that the concept would prevent complications for
builders and felt that the restrictions imposed did not conform to the
original purpose of the PUD Ordinance in regard to the density
requirement. Mr. Smith noted that the Planning Department felt in
reviewing the history of the site with regard to previous attempts for
rezoning, the restrictions were applicable. He reported the intent
of creating a smooth transition from the commercial area to the
residential area and felt that it was a reasonable recommendation. Mr.
Pasco reported that the single family residences in the adjacent area
were 30 years old and objected to placing a new single family residence
adjacent to older homes. He felt that the overall factor of
transition was not the key problem, but was a problem of number of
units and their placement.
The Examiner asked for testimony in opposition to the application.

OFFICE OF THE LAND USE HEARING EXAMINER
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL.
APPLICANT: Gerald E. Schneider , . FILE NO. R-028-77
LOCATION: ` Approximately 600 ' north of N.E. 4th Street
on Monroe Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests rezone from GS-1 and S-1
to R-2 and R-3 to allow development of low
to medium density multi-family housing.
SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Recommend approval with
RECOMMENDATION: restrictive covenants.
Hearing Examiner:
PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received
REPORT: by the Examiner on March 22 , 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 March 29 , 1977, at 1: 30 p.m. in the Council
Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building.
Parties wishing to testify were sworn.
It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and Mr. Roger Knotts,
representing 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 : Plot Plan.
Exhibit #3 : Vicinity Map.
Mr. Smith indicated that a previous application for the subject property
was submitted on February 5 , 1975 , which excluded the northerly property
and recommended R-2 zoning to the City Council. The request was
subsequently withdrawn.
The Examiner inquired about Item 0. 4. of Exhibit #1 regarding the
southerly 30 feet of N.E. 6th Street. Mr. Smith indicated that
regardless of the proposed development, the city would require the
street to be widened and dedicated.
The Examiner asked Mr. Smith to designate the setback and buffer areas
in the requested zoning areas. Mr. Smith reported that a 50 foot
setback in the form of a landscaped buffer is proposed to be established
between the multiple family residential area and the single family
residential area and also between the subject site and existing
developed single family residential property..
R-028-77 Page Four
In response to an inquiry from Mr. Tilton regarding the reason Mr.
Knotts was representing the applicant at the hearing, Mrs. Ylova
McKenney indicated a desire to speak on the application. Responding
was :
Ylova McKenney
4140 S. 130th
Seattle , WA 98168
Mrs. McKenney stated that she is the owner of the subject property
and had coordinated possible development of the site with Mr. Knotts
for the past two years. She reported that the property would be
developed eventually, was a financial burden in its present state,
and hoped that residents would cooperate in arriving at a compromise
in the matter.
The Examiner asked Mr. Knotts for an estimate of time required to
produce a site plan for the proposed development. Mr. Knotts felt
two weeks would be sufficient. The Examiner stated that he would
continue the hearing until such time as the neighborhood committee
and Mr. Knotts had reviewed the proposal. He indicated his
anticipation that all parties -would keep an open mind regarding the
proposal and arrive at an acceptable compromise. He asked Mr. Tilton
to contact Mr. Smith when a decision had been made to enable the
application to be scheduled on the subsequent Land Use Hearing agenda.
The Examiner asked Mr. Knotts to review the total parcel of property,
indicate minimum setbacks that could be maintained to enable
development, but stated that minimum density need not be reported at
this time.
Mrs. Gist asked if a PUD would consist of units which are purchased
or rented. The Examiner indicated it could consist of condominiums
in clustered units which could be purchased, and would provide
landscaped open space for the area and stipulated in a PUD when it
is granted.
The Examiner asked for further comments. Since there were none, the
hearing on Item #R-028-77 was closed and continued to such time as
a compromise is reached. Time: . 3 :30 p.m.
R-028-77 Page Three
Mr. Tilton presented a petition signed by 39 residents of the
President Park area which was entered into the record as Exhibit #4.
Mr. Tilton read the petition into the record. The objections included
lack of neighborhood concept as .developed in the policy statement of
the Comprehensive Plan and incompatibility with the Comprehensive Plan;
rights of neighborhoods to remain .in 'present configuration; and 90%
of proposed site presently bordered by single family residential zone.
Mr. Tilton also read a statement into the record which was labeled
Exhibit #5. The statement enlarged- upon objections listed in the
petition and quoted page 4 of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan policy
statement regarding the definition of the neighborhood in the
community. He stressed the opinion of residents in his area to
retain the site for single family residences.
The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition to the
application. Responding was:
Marion Frampton
3622 N.E. 6th Street
Renton, WA 98055
Mr. Frampton reported that he resides on the opposite side of the row
of houses abutting the new construction. He expressed objections to
multiple family dwellings and possible undesirable tenants. He
reported that the property contains tunnels under the land which would
create a drainage problem.
Responding was:
Sandra Gist
1025 Monroe _Avenue N.E.
Renton, WA 98055
Mrs. Gist reported .residing three blocks to the north of the proposed
site on Monroe Avenue. She questioned Mr. Smith regarding review of
the application by the 'utility .department concerning storm sewers ,
reporting previous problems relating .to drainage already in existence
in the area. Mr. Smith read a letter from the Engineering . Division
and indicated that the city requires. that no additional runoff be
created by the development and imposes requirements for storm drainage.
Mrs. Gist objected to further multiple family residential development
in the area• and felt that property should be maintained as single
family residential zoning due to demand for such property in the area.
The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition. Mr. John
Tilton concurred in Mrs. Gist' s comments regarding drainage and
stated that a problem already exists in the area following a heavy
storm:
The Examiner asked for comments in rebuttal from the applicant. Mr.
Knotts had no comment.
The Examiner asked Mr. Tilton if he had comments on behalf of the
petitioners and stated that he hoped a compromise could be reached by
both parties in creating a smooth. transition between the existing
single family residential area and the subject property. Mr. Tilton
indicated' .that the neighborhood was committed to disallow apartment
development on the property and to maintain the area as single family
residential zoning:
Discussion ensued between the Examiner and Mr. Tilton regarding
alternatives. for: development including requirements for density,
setbacks, buffers and landscaping in various zone classifications.
The Examiner suggested an alternative .to form a neighborhood committee
to review the matter with the developer and arrive: at a reasonable
compromise to benefit all parties involved. Mr. Knotts reported that
previous attempts to compromise with the neighboring residents had
proven unsuccessful, but indicated a willingness to cooperate.
