To: ALL PARTIES OF RECORD
Re: Renton City Council action of August 26, 1985 concerning
Honey Creek Associates Appeal of Hearing Examiner's Decision
to dismiss Rezone and Preliminary Planned Unit Development
R-014-84 and PPUD 015-84
The Renton City Council at its regular meeting of August 26, 1985
concurred in the Planning and Development Committee report reversing
the decision of the Hearing Examiner dated June 7, 1985 (which had
dismissed proceedings) and remanded the matter to the Hearing Examiner
for consideration by him on the merits.
The Planning and Development Commitee report recommended that the
City Council find the dismissal of the applications was improper as a
matter of law because of lack of notice required by City Code
Section 4-3013(E) which amounts to a denial of the applicant's right
of due process. The report also stated that the Hearing Examiner's
finding of lack of diligent prosecution by the applicant is moot
because the applicant has now received approval of the lot line
adjustment from King County. Finally, the report stated that duplication
of proceedings which will exist by reason of the previous remand of
the application by the City Council will create some confusion in
the record, however, such confusion is not sufficient justification
for dismissal of the application.
At the time of scheduling of R-014-84 and R-015-84 before the Hearing
Examiner, all parties of record will be notified of the time and date
of the proceedings by the Building and Zoning Department.
Yours truly,
CITY OF RENTON

Councilman Stredicke had excused himself when challenged
by the applicant' s attorney for possible violation of
appearance of fairness doctrine.)

Planning and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Stredicke
Development presented a report regarding the appeal by Honey Creek
Committee Associates of the decision of the Hearing Examiner on
Honey Creek Appeal 6/7/85 to dismiss the applications. The Committee found
R-014-84, PPUD-015-84 that dismissal of the applicants is improper since lack of
notice required by City Code Section 4-3013(E) amounts to
a denial of the applicant ' s right of due process. Further,
the Hearing Examiner' s finding of lack of diligent prosecution
by the applicant is now moot because the applicant has now
received approval of the lot line adjustment from King County.
Finally, the duplication of proceedings which will exist by
reason of the previous remand of the application by the
City Council will create some confusion in the record.
Such confusion does not justify dismissing the application.
Continued Therefore, the Committee recommended that the City Council
reverse the decision of the Hearing Examiner of 6/7/85 which
dismissed the proceedings, and remand the proceedings back
to the Hearing Examiner for consideration of the merits of
the application. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY KEOLKER,
COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.
Lincoln Property Ruth Larson, 714 High Avenue S. , representing Renton Hill
Landscaping - Community Association, requested a status report on the matter
Renton Hill of landscaping installation by Lincoln Property Company at
its development on Grant Avenue S. , constructed three years
ago. Mayor Shinpoch explained that the developer was required
to install the landscaping, and the condition was assured by
the requirement of a bond, which the city will call if the
developer does not comply. She will research the timing of
the matter and notify Mrs. Larson. Mayor Shinpoch also
advised contacting the Pacific Institute in response to an
earlier suggestion by Mrs. Larson to find a positive solution
to the cruising problem. A response is forthcoming.
Fire Department Sanford Webb, 430 Mill Avenue S. , expressed concern regarding
Response and fire hazards as a result of dry summer to apartment buildings
Training Center located close together. He noted emergency vehicles have
difficulty in maneuvering at the top of Mill Avenue South on
Renton Hill due to limited turnaround space. Mr. Webb
questioned City expenditure of $15,000 to study possible
construction of a local fire/police training center when a
training facility is already in operation in North Bend.
He also felt the City of Renton is too small to warrant
FBI training for its police chief. Mayor Shinpoch advised
that the Renton Fire Department is a fully-manned professional
unit whose members are in constant training to handle all
types of emergencies. She noted that response drills to
intentionally set fires are common in the program, turnaround
radius is required on City streets to provide space for
emergency vehicles, and fire hydrants are visibly marked
for access. The proposed training site, a consortium of
the four valley cities (Kent, Auburn, Tukwila and Renton) ,
will expand upon training offered by the state-run North
Bend facility, which deals mainly with hazardous waste
and chemical fire emergencies. The distance to North Bend
has been computed, and it has been determined that a local
facility, structured to meet training needs for day-to-day
emergencies, is more cost effective for the City.

Administrative Report
ADMINISTRATIVE The Green River Management Agreement was signed on Thursday,
REPORT July 18th, by representatives of the four Valley cities and
Green River King County. Mayor Shinpoch was pleased to see Councilmembers
Management Stredicke, Mathews and Hughes in attendance for the ceremony,
Agreement held at Riverfront Park in Kent. The five jurisdictions will
share the $196,000 cost of monitoring the flow of the river,
and constructing, repairing and maintaining dikes.
Railroad Track Public Works Director Houghton and Street Superintendent Jack
Inspection Crumley joined the roadmaster of Burlington Northern for a
field inspection of the railroad tracks in the Central
Business District recently. A cooperative agreement was
reached for some improvement of the tracks.
1-405 "S" Mayor Shinpoch proposed a scenario wherein once the draft
Curve Project environmental impact statement for the 1-405 "S" curve
project has been received from the State DOT, staff and
Councilmembers would meet to critique the document and
discuss alternatives. Council could then hold a public
meeting to provide constituents the opportunity to learn
the Council ' s rationale and to provide input for the public
record on the preferred alternative. The next step would
be the open house sponsored by the State DOT at the Sheraton
Inn in September at which they plan to present the route
selection. Mayor Shinpoch indicated her intent to provide
copies of the draft EIS to each Councilmember when available
to enable them to respond to constituents regarding the
project.
Boulevard Councilman Stredicke requested the Administration investigate
Restaurant the legality of automobile storage in the parking lot of the
Car Storage Boulevard Restaurant on Airport Way. He suggested that
a landscape buffer may be necessary to protect single family
residences which abut the commercial lot. Mayor Shinpoch
will report back.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton, questioned the cost
Honey Creek of publishing the Renton Report. Administrative Assistant
Associates Parness estimated cost at 30 cents per copy. He also asked

CORRESPONDENCE Letter from Building & Zoning Director Ronald G. Nelson,
Development representing the Environmental Review Committee, was read.
at N. 44th Mr. Nelson apprised Council of two proposed developments
Street located on King County property immediately adjacent to the
Interchange City of Renton limits. The first, 4.5 acre parcel east of
Denny' s Restaurant at 44th Street interchange, is being
considered for development of commercial or multifamily
residential use in a four-lot subdivision. Upon completion,
the development would depend upon the City of Renton to
supply water, sewer, storm drainage facility and allow access
from two of the lots across private easements in the City.
Since annexation cannot be required until connection
to the water system occurs, the developer would build to
King County standards through its development process rather
than meeting Code requirements of the City. The ERC recommends
that the City pursue annexation of the site and not allow
access to nor certification for City water until that process
is complete.

PARTIES OF RECORD
RE: Honey Creek Association
I have reviewed materials submitted to this office regarding the original application, as
well as the decision of the City Council remanding the matter back to this office, and
have decided that the matter should be dismissed at this time.
The matter was remanded to hear information relating to the status of legal lots and to
assure that all parties who should have been notified of the various requests were so
notified. Since the applicant is in the process of modifying existing lot lines, the Building
and Zoning Department indicates that the various density provisions will be affected
accordingly. The original application and the matters to be considered have been altered,
or will be altered considerably, and are not within the bounds of the remand. A delay of
up to 3 months might occur, and it will not serve the public interest to continue the
matter any longer. Further, it is also apparent that the information in the application will
no longer be accurate and a confusing record might well result. Since the matter is not
being diligently pursued, and the premise of the original application is being altered, this
office has determined that the matter should be dismissed (Section 4-3013(E)). A new
application containing current information for review should be submitted and processed
in the regular manner.
The applications, R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84, are hereby dismissed.
If this office can be of any further assistance, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,

Re:Honey Creek Associates/R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84
Dear Mr. Kaufman:
In behalf of the applicant with regard to the above-referenced applications, Honey
Creek Associates, it is respectfully requested that the Examiner reconsider the
dismissal of the referenced applications pursuant to the letter dated June 7, 1985.
The applicant requests that the Examiner reconsider this determination for the basic
reasons that the applicant does not intend to make considerable alterations to the
applications, the applications remain within the bounds of the remand and the
applicant is diligently pursuing the subject applications. Additionally, the applicant
has expended substantial sums of time and resources in the subject applications,
and a dismissal of the same would impose a substantial hardship on the applicant
without any resulting benefit to the public.
The City Council remanded the dismander to the Examiner primarily as a result
of 1.he discovery of the existence of two lots within the subject parcel. After
discussion of this fact with the Building and Zoning Department staff, it was
determined that the existing lot line should most appropriately be adjusted in location
to correspond with the line separating the two phases, as originally proposed. The
applicant initiated the lot line adjustment process after agreeing with the staff
as to the location of the adjusted lot line. It was further agreed with the staff that
the remanded hearing would be most appropriately convened subsequent to the
conclusion of this process. This was not, however, a requirement of the applicant.
If, in the discretion of the Examiner, time is of the essence, the applicant would
have no objection to convening the hearing at an earlier date. Clearly, the applicant
has no interest in delaying this matter or causing the City of Renton review process
to extend any longer than necessary.
Upon convening the remand hearing, the Examiner will be reviewing an application
that is essentially the same as that previously reviewed. The proposed zoning, buildinglocationsandbuildingdesignremainthesame. The application originally proposed
99 dwelling units in Phase I, and it is estimated that at the remand hearing this density
will be substantially reduced. Consequently, the impacts of the proposed development
are anticipated to be less than originally proposed for Phase I. The focus of the
Mr. Fred J. Kaufman
June 19, 1985
Page two
Examiner's initial review was on the first phase, as this was the only subject of the
environmental review. This remains the case.
It would appear that dismissing the current application and immediately reapplying
would potentially be more confusing to the public in reviewing the records of this
matter than if the current application was continued. The filing of second applications
certainly will cause a substantial amount of duplication, both on the part of the
applicant and the staff, as well as any interested members of the public. This would
not appear to serve any party's interest. Additionally, the City will presumably
require further application fees when, in fact, the applications would be essentially
the same as the current ones, requiring little or no administrative review.
In summary, the applicant is willing to proceed at an earlier date than previously
requested, although it would seem to be more prudent for all parties to have the
hearing convened subsequent to the conclusion of the lot line adjustment process.
This matter is of particular importance to the applicant, and the applicant respectfully
requests that the Examiner establish a hearing date to consider the current
applications on remand as directed by the City Council members. Dismissal of current
applications will only result in unnecessary duplication of effort and additional fees
since the substance of the applications remains the same.
Inasmuch as the Examiner made the dismissal determination on an ex parte basis
and without advance notice to the parties, the Examiner may wish further information
regarding the points raised herein. If such is the case, we will look forward to
addressing any questions or concerns the Examiner may have.

Dear Mr. Hendrickson:
I have r viewed your letter of June 19, 1985 as well as other information in the file
pertaining to this matter.
I believe it would be a disservice not only to the applicant, but the general public who
remain interested in this matter, to modify the order dismissing the subject application.
As was pointed out in the letter, "it would seem more prudent for all parties to havethehearingconvenedsubsequenttotheconclusionofthelotlineadjustmentprocess." Atthattimetheentirerequestcouldbereviewedasacohesiveproject. If review were to
occur at this time, and a lot line adjustment was achieved, modifications might be
requested only requiring new staff analysis, new postings and publications, andnewhearings. Rather than draw the process out over subsequent review hearings it would
seem les; confusing to have the entire project laid out for a thorough review in one clear
proceeding.
The public and the applicant will not be served by looking at a file which containstheoriginalapplication,
which according to the original decision erroneously appliedaninappropriatestandardforreview.
On top of that confusion would be grafted the
confusion of shifting lot lines and the subsequent analysis by staff of a variety of
configurations.
A new application would present a clear picture of what propertyisinvolved, what are its configurations, what is requested, what densities are permitted,
from where and to where are densities to be transferred, and what housing types maybepermittedonthepropertiesorproperty. In other words, a whole series of issues which
are certainly unfocused as the request now stands.
Therefore, this office still believes that it would be in the best interest of the public and
the applicant to dismiss the matter and permit a new application which clearly indicates
what ha been requested and clearly permits an analysis of the proposal without the
baggage associated with the prior request.
If furthe • assistance is necessary, please feel free to contact this office.

Re:Honey Creek Associates/Notice of Appeal (R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84)
Dear Council Members:
On behalf of the applicant with regard to the above-referenced applications, we
hereby respectfully request that the City Council conduct an appeal hearingandreversetheJune7, 1985 decision of the Hearing Examiner to dismiss the referenced
applications, as supplemented by the reconsideration decision dated June 24, 1985.
The City Council recently considered appeals of the Examiner's decision on theHoneyCreekplannedunitdevelopmentandrezoneapplications. Based on theintroductionofnewandpertinentevidence, the City Council remanded these applications to
the Hearing Examiner on May 6, 1985 for a further public hearing. Uponlearningoftheremand, the Hearing Examiner determined in a letter dated June 7, 1985,
that the applications should be dismissed. The applicant, Honey Creek Associates,
then requested the Examiner to reconsider his decision, but the Examiner has declined
to do so. As a consequence of this sequence of events, the applicant has spent
approximately one and a half years in processing these applications through the
City of Renton and expended considerable sums and effort to obtain City approval,
with the ultimate result being the dismissal of the applications without a decision
on their merits.
Subsequent to the remand by the Council to the Examiner, representatives of the
applicant met with representatives of the Building and Zoning Department and it
was mutually agreed that the existing lot line on the subject property should be
relocated to conform to the two phases of development that are contemplated.
The applicant, in reliance thereon, applied to King County to revise the location
of the lot line and was informed that this process would take approximately 60to90days.
The applicant then requested that the remand hearing be scheduledafterthelotlineadjustmenthadbeencompleted. This resulted in the dismissal of the
applications by the Examiner.
The applicant respectfully requests that the Council reverse the Examiner's dismissal
of this matter for the following reasons:
1.
The applicant has continuously pursued these applications in a diligent
manner.

The dismissal of the applications was not in accordance with the procedures
set forth in Section 4-3013(E) in that there was no advance notice to the

4. The lot line revision will not result in any significant change to the current
applications, and the record prepared thus far by the City remains pertinent
to and a necessary part of the consideration by the City Council inultimatelydecidingtheseapplications.
5. Dismissal of these applications, followed by the immediate filing of new,
nearly identical, applications, will result in a duplication of effort by the
City staff, the City Council, the general public and the applicant.
6.
Dismissal of the applications will require the applicant to prepare and refile
essentially the same applications and submit new filing fees, thereby imposing
a significant burden upon the applicant without any resulting benefit to
the public.
The appeal fee of $75.00 is enclosed herewith and we will look forward to receiving
notice of the appeal hearing to be scheduled by the City Council.

we will be pleased to cooperate to the fullest extent possible.

File No. R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84)
To Parties of Record:
Following is an update on the status of the referenced applications.
On May 6, 1985, the Renton City Council adopted a report remanding
the rezone and PPUD applications back to the Hearing Examiner for
public hearing to review new information relating to the status of
legal lots and to assure that all parties who should have been notified
of the various requests were so notified. Due to substantial
modification necessary to the plans and lengthy delays predicted for
review, the Hearing Examiner dismissed the rezone and PPUD
applications on June 7, 1985, and required submission of a new
application for processing by the City.
The 10% petition for annexation is still pending and will await action
by the proponents.
If further clarification is required, please do not hesitate to contact
the office of the City Clerk at 235-2501.

not. Mr. Kaufman does not have that authority.

The matter was remanded to hear information relating to the status of legal lots and to

Council reconvened at 8:50 p.m. ; roll was called; all members
present with the exception of Trimm, excused.
AUDIENCE COMMENT William Jens, 1136 S. 23rd Street, Renton, referenced
The Luckey Company preliminary planned unit development applicant for the Luckey
PPUD-008-85 Company, File No. PPUD-008-85, multifamily complex containing
Victoria Hills) 196 units on 16 acres located south of S. Puget Drive, west
of Benson Road S. and north of S. 26th Street. The matter
was remanded by the City Council to the Hearing Examiner on
5/6/85 for consideration of additional information. Mr. Jens
noted that the original plans for the PPUD, approved in 1977,
expired on 5/24/85; however, the applicant had submitted
revised plans to the City for review prior to that date. He
requested direction regarding proper procedure to correspond
with the City Council on this matter to which he objects.
Mayor Shinpoch stated that correspondence should be directed
to the attention of the City Clerk. Letters will be
paraphrased for the record at a regular Council meeting as
required by policy to allow both the proponents and opponents
of the land use matter the opportunity to review the material .
She further explained that since an appeal of the matter is
pending, Council members are warned against ex-parte
communication with parties of record since they are serving
in a quasi-judicial capacity for the City as final decision
makers in land use applications reviewed by the Hearing
Examiner.
Continued Councilwoman Mathews added that the matter of PUD plan
submission has been referred to the City Attorney for
clarification. Councilman Stredicke reminded Councilmembers
that due to a potential violation of the Appearance of
Fairness Doctrine, he has removed himself as chairman or
member of the Planning and Development Committee, and
will be replaced by Council President Reed. The Committee
will be chaired by Vice-Chairman Keolker for this subject
matter.

was remanded to the Hearing Examiner by the City Council on
5/6/85 to allow input by King County residents to the east
of the proposal and consideration of whether legal size of
tax lots in the PUD would affect allowable density. He
noted that the developers have requested a postponement in
the hearing process to allow time to adjust tax lots within
the area of the PPUD. Mr. Murray requested that the Hearing
Examiner address only the specific issues assigned upon remand
of the applications, or that the developer abandon the old
application and submit a new request reflecting substantial
changes.

PPUD-015-84 Warren confirmed that submission of a new application
would be required to the Building & Zoning Department for

Murray referenced a memorandum from Zoning Administrator
Roger Blaylock to Hearing Examiner Fred Kaufman recommending
delay of the remand hearing until developers are able to
complete a lot line adjustment. He requested the opportunity
to communicate his objections to that request to the Hearing
Examiner. City Attorney Warren felt that Mr. Murray should

MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 17, 1985
TO: Fred J. Kaufman, Hearing Examiner
FROM: Roger J. Blaylock, Zoning Administrate 6
SUBJECT: Honeycreek Rezone and PUD/Files R-11E-04 & PPUD-1--1-5-84-
I received the attached letter in todays mail requesting that the public hearing for the
above items not be scheduled until the applicant can complete an adjustment to a lot line
to specifically respond to the condition of the Environmental Review Committee to
preclude development on the east side of the natural ravine. It appears that both the
Building and Zoning Department in making a recommendation and the conclusions the
Hearing Examiner reached, may be overshadowed by a technical error. Specifically that
in the discussion of the PUD ordinance, we are dealing with a lot which is defined as a
legal lot, and the legal lot did not conform to that area that the Environmental Review
Committee had allowed the preliminary PUD to continue on. It would, therefore, appear
reasonable to allow the applicant sufficient time to process the lot line adjustment
through King County so that the lot corresponds to the area under discussion for the PUD.
The staff has conducted preliminary evaluations of density for the revised lot and it would
appear that there is an approximately a 20-25% reduction beyond what the Environmental
Review Committee had limited the initial Phase I project to. The applicant would have to
redesign the project to comply with the provisions of the slope formula.
We should note that the applicant is now requesting the delay in the public hearing process
and is not a result of either staff or Hearing Examiner scheduling.
I will reschedule with formal postings, publications, and notifications to interested parties
in the arnexation and rezone process after we have obtained a formal lot line adjustment
from King County.

Re: Honey Creek Rezone and P.U.D. Our Project #83-47
File: R-114-84, PPUD-115-84
Mr. Blaylock:
Pursuant to our telephone conversation of last week, application has been made to
King County for a lot line adjustment on the above referenced project. This action
is in response to the Environmental Review Committee's request to limit
development at the present time to the southwest portion of the site. Due to the
lengthy (60 - 90 days) and rather unpredictable nature of the lot line adjustment
procedure, we request that a new hearing date not be scheduled until the King
County process is complete.
Every effort will be made to keep the City informed of the progress. If you have
any questions or you need additional information, please feel free to contact our
office.

Public Hearing continued
Dochnahl 75% He reported a request of the Fire Prevention Bureau for
Annexation Petition/ dedication of a 30-foot strip on the west side of 136th
Bales-Denton Rezone Avenue SE to provide emergency vehicle access; and suggested
continued inclusion of the requirement in the language of the ordinance
approving the annexation. As an alternative, dedication
could be required for any future development. Mr. Munson
reiterated the departmental recommendation for approval of
both the annexation and rezone; and establishment of a second
public hearing on 6/3/85.
Continued Upon inquiry, City Attorney Warren advised the Council right
to deny the rezone at any point in the process up to adoption
of the rezone ordinance. Policy Development Director Springer
indicated that through the simultaneous review process, several
options exist for approval of both the annexation and rezone,
denial of both, or approval of the annexation and denial of
the rezone. Regarding questions concerning access, he also
reported that the Examiner had given thorough consideration
to proposed access to the south of the McCann property and the
proposal for additional right-of-way.
Continued David Sitzman, 13024 SE 72nd Place, Renton, representing the
petitioners, spoke in favor of both the annexation and rezone.
He felt the proposed developments are consistent with development
in the area and a natural extension of City boundaries. He
indicated that through an oversight, owners of Lots 2 and 3
had not appealed Condition No. 2 imposed by the Examiner--
joint access agreement between the two lots required by
restrictive covenant. City Attorney Warren confirmed that the
appeal period for the Examiner' s report has expired. Mr.
Sitzman noted that King County zoning for Parcels 3 and 4
allows business use; however, office park development as
proposed would have less impact on traffic and surrounding
areas.
Continued Dennis Dochnahl , 10406 129th SE, owner of Lot 2, objected to
the referenced joint access agreement since it would violate
an existing lease held with adjacent Old National Bank, and
would be unacceptable to both parties. Upon inquiry, Mr.
Springer reported that if the annexation was approved and the
rezone denied, G-1 (General ) zoning would be applied, and
existing businesses would be classified as legal non-conforming
uses since they conform to existing King County zoning categories.
He also noted that rezone conditions for Lots 1 and 4 are
acceptable to the proponents, and suggested that access
questions on Lots 2 and 3 could be reconsidered by the
Examiner. City Attorney Warren advised that the Council is
empowered to accept, reject, or modify the Hearing Examiner ' s
recommendation, or remand all or part of the recommendation
back to the Examiner. Mr. Springer suggested that staff review
the access question and offer solutions at the second public
hearing. MOVED BY HUGHES, SECONDED BY STREDICKE, COUNCIL

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted,
Dochnahl 75% published and mailed in accordance with State and City laws,
Annexation Petition/ Mayor Shinpoch opened the public hearing to consider the
Bales-Denton Rezone Dochnahl 75% Annexation Petition and the Bales/Denton Rezone.
R-105-84) Steve Munson, Policy Development Department , explained that
Concurrent Review pursuant to Council policy, the annexation and rezone have
Process been submitted for joint review by the City Council . This
hearing constitutes the first of two public hearings required
by State law, to be set at least 30 days apart. Council
accepted the 10% annexation petition and authorized circulation
of the 75% petition on 1/28/85 for annexation of approximately
13 acres located on the south side of NE 4th Street, east of
Union Avenue NE and west of 138th Avenue SE. The rezone was
considered by the Hearing Examiner on 3/19/85, and approval
was recommended for rezone of Parcels 1 , 2 and 3 (3.37 acres)
to Office Park (0-P) zone and Parcel 4 (.53 acres) to Business
B-1 ) zone. The Examiner required several conditions: 1 ) site
plan review for subsequent development; 2) prohibition of all
but emergency access from Parcels 1 , 2 and 3 to NE 4th Street
and requirement of a joint access agreement between Parcels 2
and 3; and 3) dedication of the easterly 30 feet of Parcel 4
for the widening of Duvall Avenue NE.
Continued The scope of the annexation area and the four parcels proposed
for rezone were pointed out by Mr. Munson on a vicinity map.
Renton City Council
5/6/85 Page three
Planning and Development Committee Report continued
Planning and rezone and denied the PPUD on 3/4/85. The Committee has
Development considered the appeals and along with other members of the
Committee Council has received correspondence regarding this matter
Honey Creek from citizens. This correspondence has been filed in the
Associates Appeals record of the proceeding and all parties have been given an
continued opportunity to rebut the substance.
Continued Questions have been raised regarding the adequacy of the notice
given of the hearing before the Hearing Examiner, particularly
to residents living in King County who were parties of record
to the 10% annexation proceeding under concurrent review by the
City. In addition, the developer has presented new evidence
of the existence of two separate tax parcels which would
consist of legal "lots" as that term is defined in City Code
Section 4-702(L) (4) . This new evidence may have bearing upon
the matters at issue in the entire application, but particularly
with regard to the allowable density pursuant to the steep slope
formula set forth in Section 4-2709(4) (B) (2) .
Continued Therefore, the Committee recommended that the City Council
remand both applications encompassed within this appeal to the
Hearing Examiner for reconsideration in light of the new
evidence regarding the methodology for computation for the
steep slope formula, as thus calculated. The Committee further
recommended that the City Council request that the Hearing
Examiner hold another public hearing, and in addition to
City Code requirements for legal notice, notice of the hearing
be mailed to all parties of record in this and the annexation
proceeding. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL
CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. Councilwoman Mathews requested
that public notice be posted in several places on the east side
of the property to alert King County residents of the hearing.
CARRIED. John Hendrickson, Suite 505, Honeywell Center, Bellevue,
attorney for the applicant , requested that the rezone not be
remanded to the Examiner since there was no showing that an
error in fact or law had been made and the rezone area complies
with the Comprehensive Plan designation for the site. Mayor
Shinpoch explained rationale for remand of both applications,
rezone and PPUD, to allow appropriate notice to all parties
of record and King County residents adjacent to the site.
Chairman Stredicke expressed opinion of the Committee that the
rezone should not be separated from the PPUD in the review
process.
Continued Bob Tomberg, 5611 119th SE #2, Bellevue, Honey Creek Associates,
explained diligent efforts to cooperate with City staff and
meet City Code requirements in preparing plans, studies, and
other data as requested by staff. He claimed that concerns
expressed by the Committee have already been raised and addressed
through the review process. The first, access, was thoroughly
addressed, a traffic study was prepared outlininc multi-access
alternatives, and the ERC had declared the access as non-
significant. The second, R-2 zoning surrounded by R-1 , was
determined to be the most environmentally sound. Third,
proposed density of 182 units, or four units per acre, is
less than allowed by any other zone. Fourth, the concerns
over the steep slope can be addressed through PUD review and
need not be addressed during rezone review. Mr. Tomberg
requested approval of the rezone in lieu of remanding it to
the Hearing Examiner , enabling density to be defined for the PUD.
Continued Councilwoman Mathews noted that the applicant had chosen the
concurrent review process for annexation, rezone, and PUD.
Normally, each application is reviewed and approved separately
during a much lengthier process. She felt the applicant was

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT
TO: Renton City Council Members May 6, 1985
FROM: Planning and Development Committee
RE: Honey Creek Appeal R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84
The Planning and Development Committee has considered the appeal
of Honey Creek Associates from the Hearing Examiner ' s recommendation
dated March 4 , 1985, recommending denial of the preliminary PUD
PPUD 015-84) , and the appeal by Mitch Murray from the Hearing
Examiner ' s recommendation dated March 4 , 1985 recommending approval
of the rezone (R-014-84) from G-1 to R-1 and R-2 .
The members of the City Council have received correspondence regarding
this matter from citizens which have been filed in the record of this
proceeding and all parties have been given an opportunity to rebut
the substance thereof .
Questions have been raised regarding the adequacy of the notice
given of hearing before the Hearing Examiner, particularly to
residents living in King County. In addition, the developer has
presented new evidence of the existence of two separate tax parcels
which would consist of legal "lots" as that term is defined in City
Code Section 4-702 (L) (4 ) . This new evidence may have bearing upon
the matters at issue in the entire application, but particularly
with regard to the allowable density pursuant to the steep slope
formula set forth in Section 4-2709 (4 ) (B) (2) .
Therefore, the Committee recommends that the City Council remand
both applications encompassed within this appeal to the Hearing
Examiner for reconsideration in the light of the new evidence
regarding the methodology for computation for the steep slope formula,
and the adequacy of the access to the area in light of the density
as thus calculated. The Committee further recommends that the City
Council request that the Hearing Examiner hold another public hearing
upon notice, and that in addition to the legal notice as required
by the City Code, that notice of the hearing be mailed to all of
the parties of record to the proceeding, including this appeal, as
well as to the parties to the proposed annexation of the subject
i";-211a2
property to the City of Renton.

RE : Concurrent Review Process for Annexation/Rezone -
Notification of Public Hearings
Mt . Thomas Malmoe, party of record during the Honey Creek 10%
Annexation hearing held by the City Council in 1984 has indicated
concern that he and others were not notified when the City held
the rezone hearing on the same subject. He asks that the City
Council address the notification procedures. (Letter referred to
PI,3nninq and Development Committee on 4/22/85.)
Currently, the City Clerk's office prepares legal notices for publication
ard posting for annexation hearings. Likewise, the Building & Zoning
Dopartment has responsibility for posting and publishing notices for
rezones and other land use applications before the Hearing Examiner.
Unfortunately, the Clerk's office is not aware that the rezone has
been heard until after expiration of the appeal period and the file
is transmitted to the Clerk or an appeal is filed.
If the City Council decides to continue the concurrent review process
fcr annexations and rezones, this office would be happy to develop
a procedure for coordinated notification of public hearings held by
both the City Council and Hearing Examiner.
W ?. hope this clarifies the current practices followed by our
dopa rtments.

Planning and Development Committee 20 April 1985
City Council
City of Renton
Dear Committee Members,
I am a party of record in the proposed annexation, PUD and
rezone of the Honey Creek area, but because of a oversight
in the city clerk' s office, I was not contacted until 18 April
about the actions which have been occuring. Had I known that
the hearing examiner was considering the rezone and PUD, I would
have provided the following comments to him. If possible, I
would like these comments read and entered in the record of
the hearing, 25 April 1985. Because of the extremely short
notification I had, I was unable to change my business travel
schedule and may not be in town for the hearing.
On review of the final declaration of insignificance and, as
a result, the hearing examiner ' s report I found some incorrect
information about the land use and actual location of the north-
ern border of the area. Item 8 of the Environmental Checklist
says that the land use category is UNDEVELOPED PARK. This is
substantially incorrect on two counts. First, nearly two-thirds
of the property adjacent to the area is single family housing
while the remainder is undeveloped, privately held land.
Secondly, the large map with the planned area outlined shows
the planned area bordering 96th St. This is incorrect because
the main thoroughfare is in fact 95th Wy and the planned area
actually borders Paradise Estates subdivision. These same errors
were unfortunately carried over into the examiner ' s report.
Please note that as a result access to the northern R-1 area
would have to be gained by transitting a residential area and
not by turning onto property immediately adjacent to a thoroughfare.
Also, a much smaller than perported area :. abuts undeveloped land.
A comment was made in the 4 March examiner ' s report (top of page
2) about moving 15 units from the northeast portion into Phase 1 .
Does this mean that the applicant proposes to build 15 units
on the east side during Phase 1 or that 15 units which were
scheduled to be built during Phase 2 will now be built on the
west side during Phase 1? This is important because the applicant
would not be able to secure the two accesses,primary and emergency,
unless there was action in King County to condemn adjacent
property or at least right of way through adjacent property.
This point needs to be clarified in the minutes of your meeting.
Lastly, I wholeheartedly endorse the examiner' s position in
determining the density of development. The area to be developed
is extremely hilly and unstable. Over populating can easily
result in serious runoff and erosion problems. One only need
look at the Devil' s Elbow to see the effects of erosion. This is
of special concern because you intend to annex the area but not
120th Ave SE. Should the county be required to pay for road
damage caused by changes in the runoff patterns in a city area?
o; J red/ S >k-t..'

I am sorry that there was a problem with letting interested
parties know what was liappenning. I hope that you have been
able to resolve the problems of notification and public
posting.
Thank you,.

D. Notice of Appeal by Mitch Murray, (R-014-84,PPUD-105-84) , April
3,1985
Dear Council Members:
I hereby respectfully request a two week extension to the deadline for parties
of record and interested parties to submit letters in support of their
positions regarding the Honey Creek appeals (Ref . C. and D) . The deadline was
April 14, 1985, which was 10 days after the date of filing of the appeals. I
would like the deadline to be extended to April 28, 1985.
There are two reasons for this request:
1 . I only recently discovered what appears to be a significant arithmetic
error in the report to the Hearing Examiner from the Building and Zoning
department dated February 19, 1985 (Ref. A) . I need two weeks to: a. obtain
scale drawings from the Building and Zoning Department; b. to do detailed
calculations involving the slopes of the subject site; c . to consult with the
Building and Zoning Department and d. to draft a letter. The nature of the
apparent error is such that it would reduce the proposed density, using the
Building and Zoning department and the Developers slope method, from 179 units
to less than 120 units. The resulting density of less than 120 would then be
much nearer to the approximately 90 units recommended by the Hearing
Examiner. This situation could effect the outcome of the Appeal process.
2. I have discovered only recently that the east side of the subject site was
no-. posted to notify residences of the proposed Rezone and PPUD. Furthermore,
parties of record involved in the Honey Creek Anexation hearings in early 1984
were not notified of the current rezone and PPUD hearings . I have talked,
just today, with a number of residences in the eastern area and they have said
they would like to have time to review the situation and to express their
positions on the above appeals and on the Rezone and PPUD.
Sincerely,
Mitch Murray
Renton City Council

Audience Comment continued
Audience Comment Julie Winters, 5051 Morris Avenue S. , referenced a letter received
Constructive from City Attorney Warren. She claimed the letter stated that she
Notice Filed and Oma Bergeron informed him they were agents for a plaintiff in
a lawsuit against the City. She disputed that fact, and filed
constructive notice with the City Clerk on Mayor Shinpoch, City
Attorney Warren, and Police Chief Wallis declaring her rights.
She said further action will be taken if that statement is not
withdrawn.

1 . I hereby file a Notice of Appeal , to the Renton City Council , with regard
to thi? conclusions and recommendations contained within the Report and
Recommendation of the Land Use Hearing Examiner dated March 4, 1985 regarding
the Honey Creek area rezone and PPUD.
Summa 'y of Appeal
2. In general I agree with the Hearing Examiner' s report except in the
following regard. Specifically, I do not agree with the Examiner's
recommendation number 1 . on page 10: "Approve the requested zoning for the
subject site subject to the submission of a PUD for eventual development of
the subject site, and subject to annexation of the site into the City." I
recommend that the requested zoning be denied based on a gross violation of
the Comprehensive Plan Document guidelines with regard to the size of the R-1
zones and the size of the G-1 zone.
ice
1 - 3- Fs
Errors of Conclusion
3. Conclusion No. 8.
Error: "This R-1 zoning appears generally compatible with the
designation in the Comprehensive Plan and again, it continues the
existing single family zoning pattern west of the site to the site. "
Correction: This R-1 zoning is incompatible with the Comprehensive Plan
due to the fact that over half of the land area within the proposed R-1
zones is steep sloped. The Comprehensive Plan recommends development
density of no more than 1 unit per acre in these steep sloped areas.
R-1 zoning allows 6 units per acre and is therefore incompatible.
4. Conclusion No. 9.
Error: "The G-1 zoning proposed for the Honey Creek stream course and
ravine system appears appropriate. Under current zoning practice in the
city, G-1 provides the least intense residential density criterium of
any zoning district. It would be compatible with the other proposed
districts for the subject site, namely R-1 and R-2. As proposed, it
would serve to protect those areas designated greenbelt on the
Comprehensive Plan, and in that regard, it is quite compatible with the
Comprehensive Plan."

Discussion
R-1 zone size:
5. Attachment A shows the requested zoning and elevation contour lines for
the property. I have labeled the various zones A, B, C, D and E for
discussion purposes. I believe that the R-1 zones A, D and E are much to
large.
6. The Comprehensive plan document states on page 30:
As a general rule, areas with slopes that average 25% or more should be
designated as greenbelts. Development should be prohibited on slopes
greater than 40%. In greenbelt areas with less than 40% slope,
scattered single family development (at densities of one unit per acre
or less) may be allowed - although clustering should be encouraged. In
some cases higher residential densities may be allowed - if utilities
and access are available - provided that at least 75% of the site
remains in open space, that slopes are undisturbed and that development
is clustered. "
7. Attachment B shows the areas within the proposed R-1 zones where the land
slope is between 25% and 40% (light shading) and where the land slope is
grea-,er than 40% (dark shading). Attachment B illustrates that the proposed
R-1 zones (areas A, D and E on attachment B) have been made much larger than
the Comprehensive Plan Document recommends - since they include within their
boundaries large areas of land with more than 40% slope and also significant
areas of land with slope between 25% and 40%. As indicated on attachment B,
the total area of the proposed R-1 zones is 29 acres. 13 acres, (45%) of the
29 acres, is sloped more than 40%. 3 acres, (10%) of the 29 acres, is sloped
between 25% and 40%. This leaves only 13 acres, (45%) of the 29 acres, with a
slope less than 25% within the proposed R-1 zones. Thus only 13 acres, (45%)
of the 29 acres within the proposed R-1 zones, is legitimate land for R-1
development.
3—
8. As quoted above i.. ,,aragraph 6. , the Comprehensive . .an Document
specifically recommends that development be prohibited on areas with more than
40% slope. Therefore areas with more than 40% slope should not be included in
R-1 zones. Also as quoted above in paragraph 6. , the Comprehensive Plan
Document specifically recommends that unit densities should be limited to 1
unit per acre where slopes are between 25% and 40%. Therefore areas with
slopes between 25% and 40% should not be included in R-1 zones. These areas
should not be included in the R-1 zones since R-1 zoning allows 6 units per
acre (Renton Code section 4-706 (C) 1 . ).
9. I realize that the Comprehensive Plan Document is merely a guide to
development standards. Minor changes in land use compared to the
Comprehensive Plan are acceptable and exact conformance to the Comprehensive
Plan is not required. However, the above proposed zoning is a gross violation
of the Comprehensive Plan guidelines. Specifically 45% of the land area being
proposed for R-1 zoning is on very steep land (slope greater than 40%) where
the Comprehensive Plan recommends a prohibition on development. Futhermore an
additional 10% of the land within the proposed R-1 zones is sloped between 25%
and 40% where unit densities should be limited to 1 unit per acre, and thus
these areas do not qualify for R-1 zoning.
10. It appears that the requested R-1 zone sizes have been purposely made
much larger than the Comprehensive Plan recommends solely to provide a unit
density bonus for the planed PUD. Both the PUD ordinance Title 4 chapter 27
and the Zoning ordinance Title 4 chapter 7 do not say that it is alright to
violate the Comprehensive Plan guidelines on land use zoning in order to
provide a unit density bonus to a PUD.
4- --
11 . I have been presvflued with the argument that: It alright to zone
large areas of steep sloped land R-1 in violation of the Comprehensive Plan
Document because the PUD ordinance contains a Steep Sloped Land Density
Penalty (SSLDP) which will reduce the actual allowable density in these
areas. This argument is fallacious for the following reason: The SSLDP is
applied over the net area of the lot based on the average slope of the lot
section 4-2709,4,B,2). The SSLDP may or may not result in the allowable
density being no greater than that recommended in the Comprehensive Plan
Document depending on the exact nature of the land.
12. The following example shows how the argument presented in paragraph 11 .
is fallacious:
Consider a parcel of land that lies partially within a single family
land use area and partially within a greenbelt land use area on the
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element map. Assume that the land has a
total area of 30 acres. Assume that 10 acres is level , 10 acres is
sloped 26% and 10 acres is sloped 41%. The Comprehensive Plan
recommends a maximum unit density of 6x10=60 for the level part (using 6
units per acre for single family residential ) , plus lx10=10 for the 26%
sloped part plus Ox10=0 for the 41% sloped part. Thus the recommended
maximum allowable density is 60+10+0=70 units according to the
Comprehensive Plan Document. On the other hand, if we assume that the
entire 30 acres is zoned R-1 in disregard for the Comprehensive Plan and
we then apply the SSLDP we obtain the following: The gross area reduced
20% for internal circulation (section 4-2709,3) would be 30-( .20)x30=24
acres. The average slope of the lot is (10x0+10x26+10x41 )/30=22%. The
SSLDP is (22-15)x2=14%. And thus the allowable density would be
24x6=144 minus 14% due to the SSLDP or 144-( .14)x144=124 units. Thus
the allowable unit density gotten by improperly zoning large areas of
steep sloped land R-1 and then applying the SSLDP is 124 units which is
much larger than the 70 units that are recommended as maximum in the
Comprehensive Plan Document.
13. The above example is not an extreme case - there are many other examples
where the allowable unit density gotten by incorrectly zoning large areas of
steep sloped land R-1 and then applying the SSLDP is much larger than the
Comprehensive Plan Document recommends.
5 -
14. -he above paragrdpris 11 , 12 and 13 point out the raL;t that the only
effec-Ave way of maintaining compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Document,
with regard to maximum allowable unit densities, is to properly apply the
zoning rules. The proper way to apply the zoning is to do what the
Comprehensive Plan Document says - by not including large areas of steep
sloped land within R-1 zones.
G-1 zone size:
15. attachment C shows the recommended land use guidelines from the Land Use
Element map from the Comprehensive Plan Document. The Comprehensive plan
document states on page 29:
Greenbelt
An area intended for open space, recreation, very low density
residential uses (generally at a density of less than one unit per gross
acre), agriculture or other compatible low density use. Greenbelt areas
are characterized by severe topographic, ground water, slope
instability, soil or other physical limitations that make the areas
unsuitable for intensive development. Provisions for public enjoyment
of greenbelt areas are encouraged; however, greenbelt designations do
not imply the right of public access. "
16. The Hearing Examiner' s Report under Conclusions paragraph 9. states:
The G-1 zoning proposed for the Honey Creek stream course and ravine
system appears appropriate. Under current zoning practice in the city,
G-1 provides the least intense residential density criterium of any
zoning district. It would be compatible with the other proposed
districts for the subject site, namely R-1 and R-2. As proposed, it
would serve to protect those areas designated greenbelt on the
Comprehensive Plan, and in that regard, it is quite compatible with the
Comprehensive Plan. "
17. I agree that G-1 the proper zoning for the "st«am course and ravine
system". However the proposed G-1 zone protects only 12.7 acres of the ravine
system. The total area within the ravine system where the slope is greater
than 25% is approximately 29 acres. Also the Land Use Element map shows a
greenbelt area of 29 acres.
18. Again, I realize that the Comprehensive Plan Document is merely a guide
to development standards. However the above proposed G-1 zoning of only 12.7
acres out of a greenbelt area of 29 acres is a gross violation of the
Comprehensive Plan guidelines.
SUMMARY OF ACTION REQUESTED
19. I request that the requested zoning be denied based on a gross violation
of the Comprehensive Plan Document guidelines with regard to the size of the
R-1 zones and the size of the G-1 zone.
Sincerely,
7Z(.

Re:Honey Creek Associates
PPUD-015-84)/Notice of Appeal
Dear Council Members:
In behalf of the applicant with regard to the above-referenced matter, we hereby
respectfully request that the City Council conduct an appeal hearing and reverse
the decision of the Hearing Examiner dated March 4, 1985, as supplemented by the
Reconsideration decision dated March 20, 1985.
The Council is respectfully requested to consider the following substantial errors
in fact and in law made with regard to the PPUD application:
1. The City has modified the manner in which it interprets and applies the slope
formula in Section 4-2709(4)(B)(2) during the processing and review of the
PPUD application. While certain City officials have imposed the constraints
of the slope formula to exclusively the steep slope areas, others have applied
the formula to the entire property, irrespective of the actual slope. This
has the result of reducing the permitted density of this 47.7 acre site from
185 dwelling units to approximately 90 dwelling units. The applicant contends
that the change in interpretation and the inconsistent application of the formula
are procedurally and substantively incorrect and contrary to the due process
and equal protection rights of the applicant.
2. The City Council in reviewing the record prepared with regard to this
application, does so in a quasi-judicial manner. The Council, therefore, should
give great weight to the construction of the slope formula applied by the
Policy Development Department (PDD) during the approximately one and
one-half year review of this project. The PDD interpretation, which applied
the slope formula exclusively to the steep slope areas of the subject property,
was consistently and uniformly followed by the City until the Hearing Examiner
hearing. As a quasi-judicial body, the Council should follow the interpretations
of the administrative officials of the City.
3. It is evident that the Code section in question is inherently ambiguous in
that it has resulted in contrary interpretations by different City officials,
as well as other professionals involved in this matter. In order to eliminate
cl- 3 -
City Council
The City of Renton

Page two
the ambiguity, and to avoid future similar disputes, the Council may wish
to amend the formula to clarify its intent and simplify its application. This,
however, should be in a prospective manner and not on an "ad hoc" basis during
the processing of an individual application. The applicant has justifiably
relied on the interpretation conveyed to it by City officials from the outset
of this application. As a result, the applicant has expended substantial time,
energy and resources in bringing this application to this stage. Therefore,
the Council is urged to stand by the original interpretation of the slope formula
rendered by City officials, and to approve the PPUD as submitted.
The applicant respectfully requests that the Council establish a hearing date with
regard to this matter, at which time the foregoing points, and others, may be more
fully addressed in order that the Council may render a final decision on this matter.
This appeal pertains solely to the application referenced as PPUD-015-84.
Very truly yours,

hearing. As a quasi-judicial body, the Council should follow the interpretations
of the administrative officials of the City.
3. It is evident that the Code section in question is inherently ambiguous in
that it has resulted in contrary interpretations by different City officials,
as well as other professionals involved in this matter. In order to eliminate

the ambiguity, and to avoid future similar disputes, the Council may wish
to amend the formula to clarify its intent and simplify its application. This,
however, should be in a prospective manner and not on an "ad hoc" basis during
the processing of an individual application. The applicant has justifiably
relied on the interpretation conveyed to it by City officials from the outset
of this application. As a result, the applicant has expended substantial time,
energy and resources in bringing this application to this stage. Therefore,
the Council is urged to stand by the original interpretation of the slope formula
rendered by City officials, and to approve the PPUD as submitted.
The applicant respectfully requests that the Council establish a hearing date with
regard to this matter, at which time the foregoing points, and others, may be more
fully addressed in order that the Council may render a final decision on this matter.
This appeal pertains solely to the application referenced as PPUD-015-84.

OFFICE OF THE HEARING EXAMINER
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION.
APPLICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES
FILE NO. R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84
LOCATION: Vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Approval of joint land use actions to allow rezoning
of 47.7 acres of property from G-1 to R-1 and R-2;
and a Preliminary P.U.D. for a two-phase
multi-family development consisting of 185 dwelling
units. The first phase of the P.U.D., located on the
south side of Honey Creek, will consist of 99 dwelling
units.
SUMMARY OF ACTION: Building and Zoning Department Recommendation:
Approval of Rezone and PPUD, with conditions.
Hearing Examiner Recommendation: Rezone is
approved. PPUD is denied.
BUILDING & ZONING The Building & Zoning Department Report was
DEPARTMENT REPORT: received by the Examiner on February 12, 1985.
PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Building and Zoning 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 February 19, 1985, at 9:05 A.M. in the Council Chambers of
the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were entered into the record:
Exhibit #1 - Yellow file containing proof of posting,
application, and other documents pertinent to this
application.
Exhibit #2 - Topographic Map
Exhibit #3 - Preliminary P.U.D. map showing 99 units.
Exhibit #4 - Vicinity Map
Exhibit #5 - Preliminary drawing showing S.W. corner
of site reference emergency access between
Harrington and proposed Jefferson St. extension.
The hearing was opened with the above exhibits being placed into the record by Roger
Blaylock, Zoning Administrator. Mr. Blaylock continued with a presentation of the staff
report for the applicant. It was noted that the applicant applied for 185 units, with the
ERC approving only 99 units based on services and access available to the northeast
portion of the site. It was estimated that development for the northeast portion will take
place within 5 to 10 years. The rezone would consist of G-1 zoning on 12.7 acres; R-1 on
29 acres; and 6 acres of R-2 zoning. The first phase of the project will consist of 99 units
in the southwest portion of the site. Mr. Blaylock stated the R-2 area in the proposal
does not specifically comply with the Comprehensive Plan due to the topography of the
site. The R-2 portion is approximately 75 ft. lower than the adjacent single-family area,
thereby placing these units on a plateau. The ERC expressed concern about the properties
to the east of the site because even though the areas are platted, they are undeveloped,
have no sewer or water, and city services to access that area would be difficult due to the
need to bypass a large ravine. Because of the ravine, travel time from one side of the
development to the other is more than 20 minutes.

Timeliness was discussed, and Mr. Blaylock stated the south and west portions are timely,
but the north and east portions are not. It is believed the rezone request does meet with
the intent of the rezone criteria, and is therefore recommended for approval. The
preliminary P.U.D. is requested to allow 185 units on 47.7 acres, utilizing 99 units as the
first phase on the southwest corner of the site. Another Preliminary P.U.D. hearing will
have to be held on the second phase, when and if development takes place on the
northeast portion of the site. It was clarified that approximately 15 units are being
moved into Phase I from the northeast portion of the site. This Preliminary P.U.U. is
covering the whole site of 47.7 acres, not just the portion being considered as Phase I.
There will be 5 townhouse units in Building J, 4 in Building H, and 4 units in Building I.
Open space requirements are met as well as the minimum area requirement of four (4)
acres. There is a portion of property that will be dedicated to the City for street
right-of-way for the extension of Jefferson Street. This portion will begin at the present
northern boundary of Jefferson Street and extend to its connection with 23rd Street. Mr.
Blaylock reviewed the density calculations, slope reduction and use reduction information
per a chart contained in the staff report. It was noted that the total development
capacity for the entire 47 acres is 179 units.
Mr. Blaylock continued with the review stating there was an issue with the development
as to whether or not there is enough access to allow 99 units in the southwest corner of
the site. The proposal, as now presented, would make the primary access Jefferson
Street, with another access at N.E. 21st Street (going north to N.E. 23rd Pl. or 23rd
Street, through single family residential areas). From the 99 units it is anticipated there
will be approximately 600 vehicle trips per day. The ERC did not feel the impact was
significant enough to prohibit the project. Mr. Blaylock stated, most arterials carry
around 25,000 trips per day, usually going in two different directions. He discussed the
steep slopes and slope instability resulting from initial construction. Hydroseeding will be
necessary, with additional planting at certain times during construction. The City is to
construct the main sewer line with access on Jefferson Avenue N.E. and the tie-in at N.E.
21st. A 20 ft. wide, gated emergency tie-in would be located at N.E. 23rd Street. Mr.
Blaylock stated the City Council wants to hear the Preliminary PUD and the rezone
together because this is a unique site, and they wish to determine if the design will affect
the rezone, which in turn would affect the proposed annexation. Staff recommends
approval of both requests.
Calling for testimony in support of the application from the applicant or their
representative, responding was:
Greg Diener
Johnson Braund Design Group
304 Main Avenue South
Renton, Wa. 98055
Mr. Diener advised the Examiner that they are aware of the concerns regarding traffic in
the area. He feels they have worked diligently to find solutions to the concerns expressed
regarding topography of the land. They feel they have an access that will minimize the
negative impacts to the surrounding, existing single family neighborhood with regard to
the suggested traffic impacts to the area. He also feels the concerns of steep slopes and
drainage can be addressed at the time the building permits and FPUD are submitted. He
acknowledged there have not been any slope stability studies, boring or soil studies made
on the site as yet, but there will be in the future. Soils now are sand and gravel which is
good because they do not retain moisture. He had no further comments at this time.
Further responding for the applicant was:
Bob Tomberg
5611 - 119th S.E., #2
Bellevue, Wa., 98006
Mr. Tomberg addressed what he felt was a conflict in density calculations. He stated
their calculations and feasibility studies were based on the initial calculations of the
previous Policy Development Director, and made a plea that the calculations be accepted
as those presented. The Hearing Examiner stated he is bound by the City Ordinance and
not by the preliminary or initial interpretation of the density calculations. Mr. Tomberg
stated much time has been spent with the City to deliniate just what was going to be
accepted in this proposal. He stated the original presentation to the City was for 330
units. The City came up with calculations for 185 units and the applicant has reduced
that figure to 178. Mr. Tomberg had no further testimony. The Hearing Examiner called
for further testimony in support of this proposal. There was no one else wishing to speak.

Calling for testimony in opposition to, or questions regarding this proposal, responding was:
Lorraine Damman
2809 N.E. 23rd Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Ms. Damman expressed concern over the fact the N.E. 23rd St. extension is right behind
her home. She questioned if the property behind her was sold because it was her
understanding an extension could not be completed until the sale was accomplished. Mr.
Blaylock replied stating this is not an extension - it is only an emergency access to the
site, not to be used as a through street. The emergency access roadway is only 20 ft.
wide. She questioned a R-2 zone plateau Mr. Blaylock had made reference to earlier and
discovered it was about 75 ft. below her residence. She asked Mr. Blaylock to explain the
proposed traffic pattern to her as she was concerned about the suggested 600 vehicle trips
per day. Mr. Blaylock stated the pattern would probably have traffic going down
Jefferson Street to Harrington Street and out on to 16th; or could be routed down 21st
Street and come out on either 23rd Street or 23rd Place. She had no further comments.
Calling for further testimony, a response was received from:
Mrs. Wayne Oyler
2123 Harrington Place N.E.
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mrs. Oyler stated she lives between 21st Street and 23rd Street and questioned the opening
of 21st Street for access, and the traffic that will come out Harrington Place to 23rd
Place N.E.. She feels this is a terrible impact on her surroundings. There are seven
residences on Harrington Place that would be impacted by this traffic. She questioned the
fact that 21st Street was only going to be improved up to Harrington Place. What would
happen to Harrington Place N.E. - would they have to participate in the improvements for
others to use when the residents there now don't want the traffic anyway. The Hearing
Examiner questioned why 23rd Street has been restricted to only an emergency access,
and Mr. Blaylock stated it was because the City can not obtain the additional width for
23rd to make it a full street, and does not have the powers of condemnation for a
dead-end street. It was noted that property that is needed for this project is owned by
Mr. and Mrs. Oyler, but Mrs. Oyler, to date, has not filed a lot line adjustment that would
give the City an additional 25 ft. right-of-way. She stated they had not done so as they
wanted to see what the City was going to do with the property. The City does not have a
full right-of-way on either 21st Street or 23rd Street. Mrs. Oyler had no further
comments at this time.
Calling for testimony in opposition to this proposal, wishing to speak from the audience
was:
Mitch Murray
2813 N.E. 23rd Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Murray, passed out prepared information to the Examiner, Mr. Blaylock, the
applicants' representatives and others in the audience. Referring to this information, he
addressed such subjects as the zoning for this area as compared with the Comprehensive
Plan for the area. He feels the zoning is excess and not consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan. He also discussed the concerns of access stating he feels access by
21st or 23rd Street is not acceptable as those streets would require extensive paving and
widening. He feels a portion referred to as Devil's Elbow would be a better access as it
had been previously used for a the gravel pit and there is a gravel road already in place.
The second access he proposed was Jefferson Avenue N.E. Mr. Murray relayed that the
PUD ordinance states a project should be beneficial to the community. He does not feel
this proposal qualifies. Questioning the greenbelt shown on the drawings, he discussed
with the Zoning Administrator the greenbelt area, slopes, and how they apply to this
proposal.
Calling for further testimony, wishing to speak in opposition was:
Kathleen Gormley
2820 N.E. 23rd Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Ms. Gormley stated when they attended the first public hearing on this project they were
told by the Mayor that the second access to this area would be through Devil's Elbow. She
said she understood since that time it had been determined it would be too costly to
HONEY CREEK ASSOCIA-.
R-014-84 - PPUD-015-84
March 4, 1985
Page 4
develop that area and they have heard no more on the matter. She felt the Devil's Elbow
access should definitely be considered because traffic through the residential areas
involved would create more of an impact on their communities. She also stated she felt
more people were interested and had input on this matter but could not attend a daytime
meeting. She questioned why the meeting could not have been held at night. She was
concerned that this would be the only public hearing held on the matter.
The Hearing Examiner explained to Ms. Gormley that under normal rezone procedure this
would be the only public hearing before the City Council. But under the State law when
property is annexed into the City and the applicant simultaneously applies for a specific
zoning request that is out of the ordinary, the City Council must hold two separate public
hearings on the matter, along with the hearing on the annexation. He also advised that
the City Council will hear the annexation request, as it is not a foregone conclusion that
the property will be annexed into the city. He welcomed Ms. Gormley and her neighbors
to attend the City Council hearings where they can express their concerns before the
Council makes a final decision. Calling for further testimony, responding again was Greg
Diener.
Mr. Diener wanted to again address the Devil's Elbow access. He entered Exhibit #5 into
the record which depicts the emergency access along 23rd Street and the Jefferson Street
extension. He continued with reference to grade changes that would occur behind Ms.
Damman's home stating they would be no more than 2 to 3 ft. The 21st Street access is
intended to be the secondary access, the primary access for this site is intended to be
through the Jefferson corridor. He said there is an existing 30 ft. right-of-way on 21st
Street. It is the applicant's intention to improve 21st Street to a 24 ft. wide overlay
section and not acquire additional right-of-way to bring to city standards. He stated it
was not felt by the developer that the grades and slopes connecting Devil's Elbow with
Jefferson Avenue are not practical, they are borderline possibilities due to existing
topography. The grade on Devil's Elbow is approximately 20%. At this point, Mr.
Blaylock stated the Devil's Elbow does not even meet emergency street standards.
Wishing to speak further was Mr. Wayne Oyler, 2132 Harrington Place N.E., Renton,
Washington, 98055. Mr. Oyler suggested the traffic should be routed down Jefferson,
close off Devil's Elbow, eliminate the emergency access and have a U-turn at the end of
Jefferson. From the audience, Mr. Mitch Murray approached the topography map and
clarified the slopes and grades on Devil's Elbow. He questioned the applicant's statement
of a 20% grade, and feels it is only a 10% grade. Mrs. Gormley questioned the need for 2
accesses, and when Mr. Blaylock stated the Fire Code requires 1 primary access and 1
secondary access, she said at the previous meeting they had been told there had to be 2
major accesses and an emergency access.
Responding further on behalf of the applicant was:
Mel Easter, Architect
Johnson Braund Design Group
304 Main Avenue South
Renton, Wa. 98055
Mr. Easter discussed the guidelines used to calculate densities, as had been discussed with
the previous Policy Development Director. With those numbers in mind, they have
proceeded accordingly. He reviewed the rationale used in the placement of the R-2 zone
and what they felt the advantages were for the filing of the rezone, PUD and annexation
requests together. Mr. Easter added that they had been asked to provide a pedestrian
connection from the north to the south portion of the project, and they intend to have a
pedestrian connection from one side to the other so there will be pedestrian facilities in
connection with surrounding neighborhoods within the project itself. Mr. Easter wanted to
reiterate that Jefferson Avenue is the major access proposed and they will definitely be
making it a more attractive corridor.
The Hearing Examiner called for further testimony in support of, in opposition to, or
comments regarding this proposal. There being no one else in the audience wishing to
testify, the Examiner requested an additonal week to make his recommendation and
decision due to the size and scope of the proposal. The applicant's representatives had no
objection to the request for additional time. The hearing was closed at 11:15 A.M.

FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION:
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the
following:
FINDINGS:
1.The applicant, Honey Creek Associates, has requested approval of a classification
of approximately 47.7 acres of property, upon annexation, to R-1 (Single Family
Residential; Minimum lot size - 7,200 sq ft), R-2 (Duplex Residential), and G-1
General; Single Family Residential; Minimum lot size 35,000 sq ft). The applicant
has also requested simultaneous approval of Preliminary Planned Unit Development
PPUD) of 185 dwelling units.
2.The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act
SEPA) documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, and other
pertinent documents was entered in the record as Exhibit #1.
3.Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and SEPA (RCW 43.21 C,
1971, as amended), a Declaration of Non-Significance has been issued for the
subject proposal by the Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the responsible
official. The determination was predicated upon only the development of Phase I
of the proposal, which would include only that portion of the site south and west of
Honey Creek, and is limited to 99 units.
4.Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all City departments affected by the
impact of this proposal.
5.The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E.
immediately south and generally east of 120th Place S.E. which is more commonly
known as Devils Elbow.
6.The subject site in unincorporated King County is just north of the north central
portion of the City. The applicant has applied for a concurrent annexation into the
City, together with a rezone of the property for residential purposes. Generally,
property annexed into the City is automatically classified G-1, a category which
permits large lot single family uses. Specifically one dwelling per every 35,000
square feet. State enabling law permits a jurisdiction to conditionally zone
property prior to its annexation. The zoning would then automatically become
effective upon annexation.
7.In a similar fashion, State law permits the underlying land use approval to occur
prior to annexation, again conditioned upon ultimate annexation. The applicant has
requested conditional approval of a PPUD for up to 185 dwelling units on the
subject site which would then become effective upon sucessful annexation. The
ERC determination limiting the number of dwelling units and the location of
development scales back only the PPUD. The requested rezone, for the purposes of
this hearing, continues to cover the entire parcel.
8.The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the
subject site is located as suitable for the development of greenbelt, single family
and low density multifamily uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the plan. While not specific, a large portion in
the central area of the site is designated for greenbelt. This is the steep slope area
containing Honey Creek and its ravine and tributary ravines. An area along the
southern property line would appear to be designated for the low density
multifamily residential uses, as that is the area closest to an existing R-2 zone.
The remaining outlying portions of the site would then be designated for single
family uses.
9.The subject site contains complex topographical features. Two relatively level
plateaus occur in the northeast and southwest quadrants of the subject site.
Running more or less diagonally through the site from the northwest to the
southeast is Honey Creek. The creek is situated in a steep, walled ravine with
slopes ranging in excess of 56%. The subject site was an old quarry, and some of
the slopes had been altered in the past. An old road grade was cut into the site
from Devils Elbow to approximately the area of the proposed R-2 district.
HONEY CREEK ASSOCIA-.
R-014-84 -•PPUD-015-84

Page 6
10. The areas east and north of the subject site would remain in King County.
Generally the areas north of the subject site are undeveloped while single family
uses are located east of the site in a number of single family subdivisions. South of
the subject site is a senior citizens housing development and duplex housing
developed during World War II. Single family housing is located west of the subject
site.
11. The zoning districts within Renton adjacent to the subject site are R-1 west of the
subject site and R-2 south of the subject site. For the most part, the R-1 district
includes most of the City west of the subject site, although other districts are
embedded within this very large R-1 district. The R-2 district south of the subject
site is a multi-block district with a P-1 (Public/Quasi-Public) district containing
the Hillcrest elementary school grounds. A smaller R-1 district is located adjacent
to the southeast corner of the subject site.
12. There is no sewer service to the subject site currently. A new sewer line will be
constructed along the creek bed of Honey Creek. Construction should begin in this
calendar year and completion is expected prior to occupancy of the subject site.
13. Storm drainage from the subject site will be into Honey Creek. Water lines will
have to be extended to serve the subject site.
14. Due to the complex topography of the subject site, and given the existing
development pattern in the general area, access routes to developable portions of
the subject site are limited. The ERC required that access to the site be generally
from the southwest. Under that requirement primary access would be via
Jefferson Avenue N.E. and N.E. 21st Street, with secondary emergency access via
N.E. 23rd Street. Most of the public opposition revolved around the proposed
access and it s attendant impacts on the existing single family neighborhood and
the inadequate road network.
15. The record indicates that both N.E. 21st and N.E. 23rd are substandard streets.
While the record is unclear, the widths appear to be between 20 and 45 feet, with a
lesser paved width along most sections. Access via N.E. 21st necessitates usage of
Harrington Pl. N.E. and N.E. 23rd, both substandard streets, to gain access to
northern arterial streets. Harrington is also less than 45 feet and narrowing to 25
feet at its northerly end - paved width less than 25 feet. Southerly travel from
21st could involve a circuitous route to Harrington P1. then to Harrington Circle
and then to Harrington Avenue and either Index Ave or Harrington again. Then
across N.E. 16th to Edmonds. City analysis of the access on 21st included
right-of-way which is not public. The Oylers, adjacent property owners, have not
completed an approved lot line adjustment which would have provided a dedication
of this additional width. They oppose primary access to the subject site along 21st
and would be expected to withhold access rights.
16. These substandard streets and circuitous routes are currently heavily utilized by
residents northwest of the subject site to gain access to the Sunset Boulevard
shopping areas. Likewise residents south and east of the subject site utilize this
circuitous route in the reverse manner, to gain access to I-405. These routes as
currently constructed and maintained, and as defined in the City's Comprehensive
Transportation Plan are solely intended for local access. Neighborhood collectors
per the Subdivision Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet -
paved for 36 feet. The proposed opening of Jefferson Ave and its connection with
21st concerns residents along Harrington, 21st and 23rd Streets. This would open
an even more direct route through a residential neighborhood.
17. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicts 60% of the subject
site's traffic from the western side of the ravine, Phase I of the PPUD, will travel
south from the project site toward Kirkland Ave N.E. The remainder of the traffic
from this area of the site would travel over other roads north and west of the site.
No projected destinations were assigned to substantiate this analysis.
18. The proposed access roads have grades between 10 and 15%. A proposed access via
Devils Elbow appears to have similar grades. A former road for quarrying purposes
was in this alignment.
19. Preliminary discussions by the applicant with the Policy Development Department
concluded that a density of approximately 185 units over the entire parcel was
appropriate. These calculations were described by the applicant as initial density
calculations.
HONEY CREEK ASSOCIA.,
R-014-84 - PPUD-015-84
March 4, 1985
Page 7
Section 4-2709(4)(B)(2) requires that: "Natural land slope shall be defined as the
average slope of the lot in percent, determined by observation on simple slopes, or
more precisely by the formula:
S = 100 I L / A
Where S is the percentage slope; I is the contour interval in feet; L is the combined
length of the contour lines in scale feet; and A is the net area of the lot in square
feet. (Emphasis supplied).
20. The Building and Zoning Department initially calculated that the dwelling unit
count "is approximately one-half of what the developer and the Policy
Development Director calculated in early 1984." (Memorandum from Roger
Blaylock; January 9, 1985). Based upon this conclusion, the Building and Zoning
Department requested, and was granted, a continuance of the original Public
Hearing.
21. The different results apparently were based upon the interpretation of the above
Section. Policy Development used averages of steep slope areas whereas Building
and Zoning made its determination on the average slopes across the entire lot. The
Building and Zoning Department indicated that they still favored the 'entire lot'
versus 'individual slope' calculations but felt bound by the earlier analysis. A final
analysis using Policy's formula still reduced the proposed 185 units to 179 units.
Building and Zoning's projection would be approximately 90 units for the entire site.
22. The applicant proposes reclassifying approximately 6.0 acres to R-2; approximately
29 acres to R-1 and approximately 12.7 acres to G-1. (See attached map entered
as Exhibit #2). The R-2 property would be located on the southwestern plateau
approximately 75 feet below the surrounding grade, and approximately 190 feet
north of the south property line and approximately 190 feet east of the west
property line. Three separate areas are proposed for R-1 treatment. One of the
R-1 districts proposed by the applicant would be approximately 'L' shaped and
located in the intervening area between the R-2 zoning and adjacent properties.
That district would be approximately 8.06 acres. The other proposed R-1 districts
would be located on the east side of Honey Creek along the northern boundary of
the site (approximately 16.14 acres) and along the eastern perimeter of the subject
site (approximately 4.81 acres). The G-1 zone proposed by the applicant would
include the stream bed of Honey Creek together with most of the steep side hills
and ravines above Honey Creek, and tributary ravines.
23. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the
subject proposal by staff. The project, Phase I's 99 units, would generate an
estimated 782 vehicle trips per day. While Phase II is not being reviewed in this
proceeding, its ultimate zoning is being considered. Phase II would be expected to
generate a comparable daily trip level for the proposed 86 remaining units.
CONCLUSIONS
REZONE
1.The proponent of a rezone must demonstrate that the request is in the public
interest, it will not impair the public health, safety and welfare and in addition,
complies with at least one of the three criteria found in Section 4-3010, which
provides in part that:
a. The subject site has not been considered in a previous area-wide rezone or
land use analysis; or
b. The subject site is potentially designated for the new classification per the
Comprehensive Plan; or
c. There has been a material and substantial change in the circumstances in
the area in which the subject site is located since the last rezoning of the
property or area.
While the map and some policy elements of the Comprehensive Plan do not entirely
justify the requested zoning, the topographic isolation of the subject site would
appear to support the request.

Proposed R-2 District
2.The area that has been requested for R-2 zoning does not appear to be located in
the area strictly designated for low density multifamily dwelling units per the
Comprehensive Plan. While the Comprehensive Plan designates the southern area
of the subject site for duplex type housing stock the area proposed is approximately
200 feet north of the southern property line. The major rationale in the
Comprehensive Plan would appear to be that the area so designated is a
continuation of existing zoning patterns, that is, an R-2 zoning district is located
immediately south of the subject site. As proposed, the rezone is some 200 feet
north of the existing R-2 zone, and in fact, separated from it by proposed R-1
zoning. The request would carve out a new and independent R-2 zone in the midst
of single family and extremely low density single family zoning.
3.While some non-compliance with the Comprehensive Plan may be evident on the
south boundary, the proposal provides reasonable separation on the west from
adjacent, separately owned, single family zoned and developed uses. The proposed
R-1 zoning is a continuation of the existing zoning patterns and reasonably
complements it. So while the proposed location of the R-2 zoning does not follow
strictly orthodox land use practices when compared to the Comprehensive Plan
map, the location is sufficiently isolated from adjoining properties by it's unique
topography to cause little concern about adverse or undue effects of such a district
on neighboring property. The plateau lies approximately 75 to 100 feet lower than
the southerly properties, thereby creating a discrete environment and neighborhood.
4. While the proposed location would provide certain density bonuses to the applicant,
the zoning does not appear to adversely affect neighboring properties and is
compatible with those policies of the Comprehensive Plan which look for
topographical barriers to provide buffers between distinct zoning categories. The
bonus it may provide the applicant is obviously a trade-off to protect the stream
environment while allowing the applicant reasonable development of private
property.
Proposed R-1 District
5.The three areas proposed for R-1 zoning appear generally compatible with similar
single family designations made in the Comprehensive Plan. The largest area is in
the northeast quadrant of the parcel and abuts either single family uses in King
County or other undeveloped parcels to the north. It encompasses the larger of the
two plateaus on the subject site. This district would be a logical extension of the
single family uses located east of the site, although not an extension at this time of
a Renton single family district. There are substantial steep slopes along the
eastern edge of Honey Creek within the perimeter of this proposed R-1 area
6.The other two discrete R-1 areas are located along the eastern property line and
the western and southern property line. The eastern area is similar to the above
area. It is located adjacent to single family uses in neighboring King County, and
would logically extend that type of land use. There is a relatively small, relatively
gentle area within its proposed boundaries, but a substantial portion is steep sloped.
7.The last area proposed for R-1 zoning is the portion which wraps around the
proposed R-2 district on the west and south. This area is more or less "L" shaped.
It: follows the western and southern property lines of the site. As discussed above
in the R-2 analysis, it continues the adjacent western R-1 district onto the subject
site and acts to buffer the less intense single family uses to the west from the
proposed R-2 zone. This area also marks that portion of the site which makes the
transition from the Highlands relatively level topography to the steep topography
adjacent to Honey Creek. These are the slopes above the proposed R-2 zone.
8. This R-1 zoning appears generally compatible with the designation in the
Comprehensive Plan and again, it continues the existing single family zoning
pattern west of the site to the site.
Proposed G-1 District
9.The G-1 zoning proposed for the Honey Creek stream course and ravine system
appears appropriate. Under current zoning practice in the city, G-1 provides the
least intense residential density criterium of any zoning district. It would be
compatible with the other proposed districts for the subject site, namely R-1 and
R-2. As proposed, it would serve to protect those areas designated greenbelt on
the Comprehensive Plan, and in that regard, it is quite compatible with the
Comprehensive Plan.

PRELIMINARY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
10. The emphasis supplied in Finding 18 (see above) regarding the Special Areas Steep
Slope Formula clearly indicates that this office has difficulty with the
interpretation of Section 4-2709(4)(B)(2) utilized in calculating the density for the
proposed PPUD. The apparent decision of the Building and Zoning Department,
which required the continuation of the Public Hearing, would lend weight to a
reading of the Section as applicable to the entire lot and not individual portions of
steep slope areas. In fact, the interim and preliminary determination to apply the
steep slope formula to individual slopes would introduce uncertainly into the
Ordinance. Some of the uncertainty would produce questions not unlike the
following: "At what point is the slope steep enough, if not on "observation", to
apply the formula? Has the slope leveled off enough to resort back to the general
provisions?" The language clearly indicates that it is "the average slope of the
lot." The formula includes as a variable the "net area of the lot." The Building and
Zoning Department originally read it that way and this office must also read it that
way.
11. Going further, unless the entire lot were the basis of the determination it would be
impossible to reproduce the results now urged by the applicant. Any one using the
map or visiting the site could begin the analysis and the calculations with any
contour line. If the contour map, Exhibit #2, were presented to 5 different people,
and they utilized the formula in the manner urged by the applicant, that is, they
applied the formula to individual segments of steep slope, 5 different density
figures would be the result. As an example, Using the area proposed for R-2
zoning: Would one use the 275 foot contour line, the 280 foot line, the 325 foot line
or at the other extreme the 250 foot line? Basing the determination on the entire
lot, all contour lines are used and all five persons, barring erroneous computation,
should arrive at the same result. Unless the various parts of the slope formula are
applied to the entire lot, depending upon each individual reviewer's perspective,
the results could range from that initially calculated by Policy Development
approximately 185 units) to those calculated by the Building and Zoning
Department (approximately 90 units). And with the right (or wrong) choice of
contour line, some density figure in the middle could result from a third analysis.
Such a reading of the applicable provision cannot be justified when only uncertainly
would result, and when the provision can easily, without any problems, be applied
to an entire lot.
12. As the above analysis indicates, this office would be ignoring the obvious
complications and total uncertainty engendered in the 'separate slope' preliminary
calculations urged by the applicant. Whereas, applying the formula to the 'entire
lot' should always result in the same certain result. This office would have
difficulty ignoring the clear language of the Special Areas provision and cannot
rely on what appears to be an incorrect interpretation.
13. This Hearing and its associated independent analysis is part of the continuous
process of review. As such, this office is charged with assuring that applications
meet the intent and letter of the City's regulations. The public has a right to
expect that even if an error is detected at this stage in the proceedings that it will
be corrected through the public hearing process. While it may be unfortunate,
when an application is fairly complex and involves many components such as
annexation, rezone and PPUD, its review gets stretched out over time. Over that
long haul the interpretation attached to a 'preliminary' analysis becomes more
settled between the applicant and some members of staff, although such settled
opinion cannot be binding if incorrect. While momentum once developed in a
certain direction is hard to modify, if the direction does appear incorrect it must
be altered. Until the public hearing, anything done by staff and the applicant is
just tentative. Any agreement must be judged after public input and according to
applicable regulations. Therefore, initial, preliminary or tentative density
calculation obviously must be subject to review even at this stage of the process.
If those calculations are incorrect, they of necessity must be corrected.
Therefore, the proposed 185 units, 99 of which were included in Phase I, the part of
the PPUD subject to this review, must be recalculated.
14. Under this analysis the project must be modified considerably. But, after density
criteria is corrected, if Council concurs, the development of the subject site as a
PUD appears to serve the public use and interest. The unique topography and
environment of the subject site can only be enhanced by clustering and designing
around the steep slopes and Honey Creek.

ACCESS
15. Access to the subject site remains a major concern. Even if the proposal is scaled
back by approximately half, the streets surrounding the subject site are not
collector roads, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. The major
problem will be the connection of Jefferson to Kirkland as a through street. It will
provide less circuitous access from the Sunset area to the west and I-405. While
the small residential neighborhood now serves as such a link, its narrow, partially
paved streets should not be made more attractive by a clear cross town route.
Without substantial upgrading of roads which require width improvements, property
acquisition and surface upgrading, the proposed access is inappropriate. It might
still be inappropriate even with upgrading due to its effects on the residents along
21st, Harrington P1, and 23rd, since these streets were never intended to carry
through traffic.
16. With the information presented this office is not convinced that the through
connection of Jefferson/21st would serve the public use and interest. While it is
obvious that the inclusion of the roadway appropriately named Devils Elbow into
the City was purposely avoided to avoid maintenance responsibilities, access, at
least secondary access to the subject site via this route might be appropriate. It
was the access method proposed at the annexation hearings before the City Council
and remained the applicant's original choice until the ERC review, and the ERC
review did not have the benefit of public input. Conflicting figures submitted
regarding potential road grade do not weigh more heavily for one method over the
other. The grades appear comparable. The only obvious reasoning for the
connecting link is possibly for the convenience of emergency vehicles, but that
should not be the sole criteria. Convenience in the absence of necessity in the
instance case is not persuasive. The proposed link will generate additional use of
substandard roads, exacerbate the wear on already inadequate pavement and
adversely affect a neighborhood. If Devils Elbow could serve for emergency
purposes it should be considered. It still need not be annexed into the city to serve
such a purpose.
17. If the connection between Jefferson and 21st is approved, the applicant should bear
the cost of upgrading the roads and acquiring additional right-of-way to provide
the additional width necessary, especially in light of the additional usage
anticipated. Local residents should not bear the costs. As an analogy, similar
development of a more intense complex in the midst of existing single family
homes on substandard roads can be found in the CHG Sunpointe Complex.
Anticipating the possible consequences, all road agreements should clearly define
the full obligations involved.
18. This decision is not intended to affect the proposed annexation. This review and
analysis was handled as though the property were already included within the City.
No judgment is intended on the merits of annexation which will be considered by
the City Council after separate review and deliberation.
19. In conclusion, if the City Council should approve the annexation of the subject site,
the Council should consider zoning the subject site as proposed and represented on
Exhibit #2.
20. The PPUD proposed by the applicant should be denied if the Council finds the
calculations used to determine density were incorrect. A denial is predicated upon
the substantial modification which will be required to reduce density to the
standards required by the steep slope Special Areas formula.
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council should:
1. Approve the requested zoning for the subject site subject to the submission
of a PUD for eventual development of the subject site, and subject to
annexation of the site into the City.
2. Deny the PPUD based on an incorrect density analysis of the steep and
complex slopes of the subject site.

Renton Record-Chronicle
Pursuant to Title IV, Section 3015 of the City's Code, request for reconsideration must be
filed in writing on or before March 18, 1985. Any aggrieved person feeling that the
decision of the Examiner is based on erroneous procedure, errors of law or fact, error in
judgment, or the discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the
prior hearing may make a written request for review by the Examiner within fourteen (14)
days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This request shall set forth the specific
errors relied upon by such appellant, and the Examiner may, after review of the record,
take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Section 3016, which requires that
such appeal be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of $75.00 and meeting
other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or
purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City Hall.
The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one)
communications may occur concerning land use decisions. This means that parties to a
land use decision may not communicate in private with any decision-maker concerning the
proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both the Hearing Examiner and
members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to
openly rebut the evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation
of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for
Reconsideration as well as Appeals to the City Council.

R-014-84 AND PPUD-015-84
The Building and Zoning Department can not comply with Section 4-3012
of Land Use Hearing Examiner Ordinance and provide a staff report to
the Hearing Examiner the required seven (7) days before the scheduled
public hearing.
At the time of preparation of the final report, it was discovered that
three major errors existed. First, the applications include property
that was not included in the annexation. Both the rezone and P.U.D.
applications were not reduced in area after the annexation was revised.
Secondly, the plans do not reflect the ERC' s decision to require
dedication of Jefferson Ave. N.E. along the western property line.
Lastly and probably the most serious problem is that the dwelling
unit count that the Building and Zoning Department has just calculated
under the P.U.D. process is approximately one-half of what the developer
and the Policy Development Director calculated in early 1984. We can
not find the documentation that supported the final decision to have
the applicant apply for a P.U.D. with 185 dwelling units.
Since the application should be substantially revised, we request that
the public hearing be continued until February 19th or 26th. This
would allow review time and legal notice time by reposting the property
and new advertisements in the Record Chronicle.

Mr. Kaufman,
This letter is regarding the the Honey Creek area rezone and PUD which was the
subject of the public hearing on February 19, 1985 at 9:00 am.
I would like to make comments and recommendations on some issues:
RE C E I V E D This information was received 2/28/85,
after hearing of 2/19/85 , and will not
r E B 2 3 198S receive consideration in the Findings and
Decision to be presented by the Hearing
CITY OF R E N TON Examiner within 21 days of the hearing date.
HEARING EXAMINER
64, /
Issue 1 . Regarding the best route for emergency access to the property:
A) Attachment B is a photocopy of part of the NE 23rd Street emergency
access plans (these plans were submitted to the Hearing Examiner by Honey
Creek Associates , just before the end of the February 19, 1985 hearing) .
Section A-A correctly shows that the right-of-way is 20ft, this agrees with
the King County Assessor map, which is attached (attachment A) . Section A-A
of .attachment B shows that the actual pavement width is only 15ft due to the
4ft wide, loft high, rockery on the south side and the lft wide planting strip
on the north side. The corresponding planting strip on the currently finished
north side of NE 23rd Street between Harrington Place NE and Edmonds Ave NE is
6ft wide. Also, City code section 9-1108 7. H. table 1 , and 9-1108 23. A.
11 ) D. , both indicate that the minimum width of planting strips is 4ft.
Therefore I feel that the lft planting strip is too small and should actually
be at least 4ft. Also, attached (attachment E) is a photocopy of another part
of the NE 23rd Street emergency access plans, which shows section B-B
indicating that the access road would require a 6ft high rockery on each side
of the NE 23rd Street access over portions of the road. These two rockeries
would each require at least 4ft of width. Using 4ft for the width of the
planting strip and/or rockery on each side results in the proposed NE 23rd
Street access road having a paved width of only 12 ft.
B) I measured the pavement width of SE 97th Street and 120th Place SE
Devil ' s Elbow road) on February 20, 1985 and found it to be in general 18ft
wide. Some regions are 20ft wide and there are three locations where it is
only 16-17ft wide over short distances. In my opinion the entire road could
be brought up to 18ft easily. There is room on the shoulders in the narrow
regions to allow widening to 18ft. I also believe that the entire roadway
could be widened to 20ft by simply grading and paving an additional 2ft on the
uphill edge of the road. This would require the installation of approximately
a 4ft high bulkhead along some of the sections. There is no problem with
right-of-way as shown on the attached (attachment A) King County assessor map
for this road which shows that there is a 60ft right-of-way.
page 2
C) Attachment C is a photo copy of page 40 of the Uniform Fire Code. It
states that the "driving surface" shall be a minimum of 20ft wide for access
roadways.
D) In conclusion, the Devil ' s Elbow road and the proposed NE 23rd Street
access are both below fire code standards. However the Devil 's Elbow road is
nearer to the standard than the proposed NE 23rd Street access . Also, Devil 's
Elbow road has sufficient right-of-way to be brought up to standards and the
proposed NE 23rd Street access does not have sufficient right-of-way.
Issue 2. Regarding slopes of, and suitability of, the proposed roads
interior to the property:
A) Attached (attachment D) is a photo copy of the property plans which I
have marked with the calculated slopes of the interior roads based on the
conLour lines and appropriate lengths. The road (road A on attachment D)
along the west edge of the property has a slope of 13.1% from the point of the
NE 23rd Street access intersection on down to the main plateau (I used section
B-B of attachment E for obtaining the value of the elevation at the NE 23rd
Street access point) . The road bed (road B on attachment D) from Devil 's
Elbow to the main plateau has a slope of 13.7%. The roadway (road C on
attachment D) from the upper area to the plateau via the south east route has
a slope of 14.2%. In conclusion all these possible interior roads have slopes
over 10% and less that 15%. Therefore they all meet minimum standards for
street grades for non-major streets according to city code section 9-1108 7.
F. The proposed roadway marked A and D on attachment D should not be
allowed. Roadway A and D on attachment D would be damaging to the residential
environment bordering the western property line. Roadway A and D on
attachment D would not be required if access to the lower plateau were
provided byroad C and emergency access wereprovided byroad B.9 Y
pdge 3
IssJe 3. Regarding zoning and the question of how many units should be
allowed under PUD rules:
A) The Comprehensive plan document states on page 30 that, "As a general
rule, areas with slopes that average 25% or more should be designated as
greenbelts . Development should be prohibited on slopes greater than 40%. In
greenbelt areas with less than 40% slope, scattered single family development
at densities of one unit per acre or less) may be allowed - although
clustering should be encouraged. In some cases higher residential densities
may be allowed - if utilities and access are available - provided that at
least 75% of the site remains in open space, that slopes are undisturbed and
that development is clustered. "
B) Attachment F shows what the greenbelt areas look like for the property
using the above Comprehensive Plan slope guide. The areas shown in dark green
are areas with more that 40% slope, the areas in light green have slopes
between 25% and 40%. The areas left in white have slopes less that 25%. The
total area of all the dark and light green areas where the slope is greater
than 25% is 29.6 acres.
C) Attachment G shows the recommended land use guidelines from the the Land
Use Element map from the Comprehensive Plan document. Attachment G has a
greenbelt area of 29.4 acres.
D) Renton Building Regulations section 4-706 (A) states, "Purpose: The
Residential Zone (R-1 ) is established for low density single family
residential dwellings. It is further intended to prohibit the development of
inccmpatible uses that are detrimental to the residential environment. This
zoning classification may be permitted in an area designated as single family
residential in the comprehensive plan. "
E) It does not say, nor imply, that R-1 zoning may be applied to an area
designated as greenbelt in the Comprehensive Plan.
page 4
F) Section 4-708 (A) states, "Purpose: The Residential Zone (R-2) is
established to provide and protect suitable environments for low to medium
density multi-family residential dwellings. It is further intended to
prohibit the development of incompatible uses that are detrimental to the
residential environment. This zoning classification may be permitted in an
area designated as low density multi-family residential in the Comprehensive
Plan. "
G) It does not say, nor imply, that R-2 zoning may be applied to an area
designated as greenbelt in the Comprehensive Plan.
H) Section 4-704 (C) 1 . states that, "Dwelling Unit Density and Lot Area:
The dwelling unit density in the G-1 Zone shall not exceed one dwelling unit
per acre (including area dedicated for public purposes) . The lot area shall
not be less than thirty five thousand (35,000) square feet. " The allowable
unit densities of all the zones other than G-1 are greater than one unit per
acre. Thus it appears that G-1 is the appropriate zoning for the light green
areas of the green belt regions shown on attachment F. These are the areas
where slopes are between 25% and 40%. The Comprehensive Plan recommends
densities of not more than one unit per acre for areas with slopes between 25%
and 40%, as quoted above in paragraph 3. (A) .
I) !here is no zoning classification which exactly fits the dark green
regions where the Comprehensive Plan recommends that development be prohibited
but the closest is the G-1 zone.
J) therefore, in order to be consistent with the recommendations of the
Comprehensive Plan and the Land Use Element map, there is a total of
approximately 29 acres that should be zoned G-1 , leaving approximately 19
acres that are potential candidates for zoning of R--1 or R-2.
I
II
iI
pays 5
K) The only area that should be considered for zoning R-2 lies in the
soulhuest corner of the property according to the Land Use Element map in the
Comprehensive plan (as shown on attachment G) . It is reasonable that this
area is a potential area for zoning of R-2 since it borders an R-2 zone in the
city to the south and there is a greenbelt buffer between it and the other
areas. Therefore I have assigned this area, labeled "A" on attachment H, a
zone of R-2. Overlaying attachment H and attachment G over attachment F shows
that. I have made area "A" as large as possible without grossly violating the
Comprehensive Plan guidelines. I have assigned a zoning of R-1 to all the
other areas where there is sufficient non-greenbelt area for development as
indicated on attachment H. Overlaying attachment H over attachment F shows
that I have made areas B, C and D as large as possible without grossly
violating the greenbelt areas.
L) Attachment H shows the resulting land areas in acres for each of the
zon(3s. Also shown on attachment H are the street right-of-way areas which are
needed for PUD calculations.
M) Shown on attachment I is the total allowed number of units assuming the
area is to be developed as a PUD (I used the PUD ordinance rules from Renton
code sections 4-2709 3. and 4-2709 4. B. ) . Note that the resulting number of
units of 93 is significantly smaller than the 179 mentioned in the PPUD-015-84.
N) Another way of looking at the problem of deciding how many units should
be allowed in the PUD is to use common sense as follows: Since the intent of
the PUD ordinance is not to increase unit densities above what would occur
based on underlying zoning (Renton Building Regulations section 4-2702 L. ) - A II
common sense way to find the maximum number of units that should be allowed is
to dra.: up a dummy plat map of the area based on underlying zoning and count
the resulting number of units. I have done just this on attachment J. I come
up with a maximum allowable number of units of 74. Again this number is
significantly lower than the 179 units from PPUD-015-84.
p yp F)
0) In conclusion, the maximum number of units that should be allowed with
the PUD is at most 93, not 179. The 179 unit figure is artificially inflated
because substantial areas with slopes in excess of 40% have been included in
the R-1 zones and an R-2 zone has been improperly placed in a single family
residential region. These practices are in contradiction with the
Comprehensive Plan document and are also not justified by any Renton Ordinance
and also go against common sense.
Issue I . Regarding the condition and suitability of residential roads NE 21st
Street, NE 23rd Street, NE 23rd Place and Harrington Place NE.
A) Attachment A shows only a 30ft right-of-way for parts of NE 21st Street.
Renton code section 9-1108 7. H. table 1 shows a minimum right-of-way width of
60ft for "neighborhood collectors". A neighborhood collector is what NE 21st
Street would become if it were connected to Jefferson. Thus using NE 21st
Street would be contrary to Renton code unless additional right-of-way were
obtained and the street were paved to city standards.
B; Attachment A shows that Harrington Place NE between NE 21st Street and NE
23rd Street has a right-of-way of 45ft over most of it's length and a
right-of-way of only 25ft at the end of Harrington Place NE where it meets NE
23rd Street. Therefore using Harrington Place NE would be contrary to Renton
Ordinance unless additional right-of--way were obtained and the street were
paged to city standards for a neighborhood collector.
C: Attachment A shows a right-of-way of only 40ft for most of NE 23rd Street
between Harrington Place NE and Edmonds Ave NE. Again, additional
right-of-way would need to be obtained and paving would be required in order
to bring the street up to city standards.
page 7 .
D) A potential route for traffic to go, from Harrington Place NE, other than
NE 23rd Street would be for it to use NE 23rd Place. However, NE 23rd Place
is too narrow. It was finished to city minimum standards for residential
access streets less than 800ft long (50ft right-of-way, 32ft pavement width,
see Renton ordinance section 9-1108 7. H. table 1 ) . It was not intended as a
neighborhood collector which requires a minimum right-of-way of 60ft and a
minimum pavement width of 36ft. Therefore using NE 23rd Place would be
contrary to City ordinance unless additional right-of-way were obtained and
additional paving were done.
Issue 5. Regarding the idea of building the extension of Jefferson Ave NE
from NE 21st Street to NE 23rd Street, to city standards for a public street,
and eventually widening the proposed NE 23rd Street emergency access road to
city standards for a residential street.
A) This would have a significant effect on the traffic pattern in the area.
The new traffic pattern is illustrated on attachment K. Many of the
apartments and homes in the Renton Highlands No. 2 area (between NE 12th
Street and NE 21st Street, and between Jefferson Ave NE and the Honey Creek
valley just east of Kirkland Ave NE) would now use Jefferson Ave NE and NE
23rd Street to get to and from I-405 when heading toward or coming from the
north. This would significantly detract from the residential environment
alcng NE 23rd Street and NE 23rd Place. Also it would require that Jefferson
AVE NE between NE 21st Street and NE 23rd Street be finished to "neighborhood
collector" standards (60ft right-of-way and 36ft pavement width, Renton code
Section 9-1108 7 . H. table 1 ) . Also additional right-of-way would need to be
obtained along NE 23rd Street between Jefferson Ave NE and Edmonds Ave NE and
a 5,;ignificant amount of repaving would be needed along this street.
page 8
411
Summary of conclusions and recommendations:
Issue 1 . The plan to use NE 23rd Street for emergency access should be
rejected. Devil ' s Elbow road should be widened to 20ft pavement width and it
should be used for emergency access instead.
Issue 2. The plan to extend Jefferson Ave NE north to NE 23rd Street and
continue it as a private road on down to the lower plateau area should be
rejected. Using only the road in southeast area (road C on attachment D) for
connecting the upper and lower levels is the more direct route. Using only
the southeast route would be less damaging to the residential environment
along the west property line.
Issue 3. The maximum allowable number of units should be reduced from 179 to
at most 93. The maximum number of units west of Honey Creek should be at
mos-,: 45. The 179 number is inflated due to improperly attempting to zone
large areas of land, with more than 40% slope, R--1 ; and improperly placing an
R-2 zone where the Comprehensive Plan recommends a Single Family residential
area.
Issue 4. The plan to use NE 21st Street and or NE 23rd Street for access to
the area should be rejected. The neighborhood roads in the area are not
currently finished to city standards and there is currently not sufficient
right-of-way to finish them. Also using these roads would be damaging to the
residential environment in these areas.
Issue 5. Plans to connect NE 21st Street to NE 23rd Street with Jefferson Ave
NE, and to eventually widen the NE 23rd Street emergency access to full street
width, should be rejected. Connecting these would result in a tremendous
increase in traffic on NE 23rd Street. NE 23rd Street is not currently
firished to city standards and there is currently insufficient right-of-way to
do so. Also this traffic increase would be damaging to the residential
environment in these areas.

Re: Declaration of Non Significance Our Project #83-47
Santa Tomberg Property
Application No. R-014-84, PPUD 0015-84
Mr. Blaylock:
In accordance with our previous discussion, we have requested a meeting with the
planning staff and the fire marshalls office to discuss emergency access
requirements as provided for in the above listed declaration of non significance.
This meeting was held on Monday, June 9, 1984.
In this meeting we requested that the condition of emergency access be voided. As
it now reads the emergency access is to be provided south from the site connecting
to either Kirkland place or N.E. 18th Street. Due to the extreme slopes in this
area, this solution is not practical or possible. We reviewed the possible options for
providing an acceptably emergency access. There are four. A discussion of each
follows. An accompanying drawing is also provided.
Option 1: This option provides for an expanded intersection with a center island.
This option would help slow traffic at the intersection and minimize the
possibility that a single accident would block the entire intersection.
Access is still available through Jefferson and 21st Street.
Option 2: This option deletes the westerly portion of the loop road replacing it
with an emergency vehicle access road. A cul-de-sac is then placed
near the end of the main drive in the vicinity of building A.
Option 3: This option eliminates the intersection of the access roads to the site,
replacing it with an emergency vehicle only connection.
Option 4: This option provides for an emergency vehicle access connection to
N.E. 23rd Street. There exists a 20 foot wide right of way there now.
In order to construct a 20 foot clear roadway, an additional 5 or 10 feet
or easement would be required. In that an easement is required from
another party, it may not be possible to obtain such with absolute
certainty.

Dear Mel:
The Environmental Review Committee considered the revised alternative that you
submitted dated June 7, 1984, to provide a secondary means of emergency access to the
Honey Creek PUD site. Their determination was that, as presented, it was unacceptable
and that access must be provided to the south per your original proposed design. It does
appear that there is City right-of-way approximately 15 to 20 feet south of your property
line. Therefore, they have issued a declaration of non-significance conditioned upon
providir g emergency access to the south.
Under ;appeal procedures of the City of Renton, you have 14 days from the date of
publication, which will be on June 18, 1984, to appeal this condition if you so desire.
Appeals must be submitted to the Land Use Hearing Examiner prior to 5:00 p.m. on
Monday, July 2nd. Specific criteria for evaluating appeals is established in Section 4-3014
of the L and Use Hearing Examiner code.
If I can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me at 235-2550.
Sincere y,
For the Environmental Review Committee:

Re: Santa/Tomberg P.U.D. Our Project #83-47
Roger:
After evaluating the emergency access connection shown on the latest site design
proposal issued April 16, 1984, we would submit the enclosed alternative for your
consideration. The area shaded yellow indicates an asphalt paved section which
forms a loop road system around the entire project. The area shaded red is a
minimum width gravel road with knockdown posts at each end to be used only when
the intersection (blue asterik) or N.E. 21st Street entry road is blocked.
We hope you find this alternative access design resolves the concerns for
emergency service. Please discuss this with the appropriate City Department(s) and
contact me for re-submission of the revised plan.
If you have questions or need additional information, feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
JOHNSON BRAUND DESIGN GROUP P.S., INC.

Emergency Access
Dear Mel:
First, let me apologize for not providing you written confirmation of the requested
information from the Environmental Review Committee concerning secondary access to
the Honey Creek Associates' Planned Unit Development site.
The Environmental Review Committee considered a second proposed development plan for
the southwestern portion of the Honey Creek site. Prior to their making a final
deterrrination on the project, it was necessary to determine how the secondary access
point shown in the southeast corner of the site would actually function. As shown on your
plans, it deadends and does not provide any emergency access as intended. It would
appear that this extension would have to go through to either Kirkland Place or possibly
N.E. l E Ith Place.
Until a specific design is shown connecting your site with existing City streets to the
south, the Environmental Review Committee will not make a formal decision. However,
we wcluld hope that the problem is resolved in a timely fashion, which should be
approximately 30 to 45 days from now. If you believe it will take longer than that to
resolve the problem and create the necessary design work, we would appreciate a
projected timeline from your office.
For the Environmental Review Committee:

Our department received the attached revised Santa/Tomberg P.U.D.
site plan as required by the Environmental Review Committee.
All development within the first plase of the project is to be sited
on the south side of the creek. This plan calls for 99 units to be
located on the south side and 86 units to be located on the north side
in a future development phase.
Please review and comment on this plan at your earliest convenience. This
project will be rescheduled for ERC review on Wednesday, April 25th.

40 The Police Department earlier noted that full development (as originally
proposed) by the applicant would require an additional police car, approximately
4.5 more employees, and costs in excess of $100,000. By limiting development
to the west side, these increased burdens apparently will not be necessary.
An easement for a public trail along Honey Creek needs to be obtained as
advised by the Parks and Recreation Department. A sanitary sewer easement is
suggested as a possibility. Foot paths and basketball courts for on-site are also
advised to mitigate impacts upon the North Highlands Recreational Center.
10 As for utilities, the Honey Creek interceptor is to be installed and operational
prior to issuance of any building permits. An adequate storm drainage and
retention system must also be provided. The Utilities Engineering Division will
review such plans and monitor construction for compliance.
4' The subject site is located in an area designated "Greenbelt" on the City's
Comprehensive Plan. Much of the site is well over the 25% slope standard.
Although not in effect, the City's recommended policies suggest that in areas
of 25-40% slope, development should be limited to 25% site coverage. It would
appear that the schematic site plan is well within these limits. Toward this
end, future detailed plans are to include boundary lines designating the limits of
clearing and these should be surveyed on the site prior to initial clearing.

The revised proposal for the Santa/Tomberg PUD, though easier for us to
serve, still presents some problems that need be addressed.
1. The narrow roadways in the existing residential area are inadequate
to handle the estimated increase in vehicular traffic.
2. When the second phase of the development is constructed it will
necessitate the additional personnel and district (including a
vehicle) .
3. Building will be numbered - West A-B-C, etc. and East A-B-C
4. Proper security devices on all doors requiring same.
5. Adequate site lighting.
6. What is the grade % for emergency access?

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
The Renton Environmental Review Committee is in receipt of your letter dated March 8,
1984, stating your confirmation to modify the above referenced PUD application as
recommended by our committee.
As we stated in our letter of March 1, 1984, that because the project is functionally
divided by the ravine, greater environmental impacts are of great concern for the
northeast portion of the site in respect to distance and response time for police and fire
services. By limiting development at this time to the southwest corner of the site, we
feel that you are approaching this situation in the right direction.
In orcer for the committee to make its final environmental determination, we are
requesting that you notify your architect to prepare a revised site plan detailing your
intent ons. The plan should also incorporate a concern we had addressed for secondary
access to the southwest portion of the site. This was detailed in our letter of March 1.
PleasE submit four prints of this revised site plan, along with any other pertinent
information, to the Building & Zoning Department at your earliest convenience so that an
envircnmental declaration can be made. Until this is accomplished, the application will
remai i on our agenda under Pending Business.

MINUTES OF MARCH 12, 1984 AS WRITTEN. CARRIED.
PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted
Sinnett 75% and published according to law, Mayor Shinpoch opened the
Annexation public hearing to consider simultanteously the Sinnett 75
Petition and annexation petition and rezone request (File No. R-007-84) ;
Request for 3. 7 acres of property located on the west side of Powell
Rezone Avenue SW between SW Langston Road (extended) and SW Third
R-007-84) Place (extended) . Policy Development Director Clemens
apprised the Council of Hearing Examiner approval of the
rezone from G-1 to R-1 on 3/5/84 subject to approval of the
annexation by the City Council and the King County Boundary
Review Board. The subject hearing represents the first of
two separate public hearings to be held at least a month
apart required by the new procedure; if Council determines
the annexation and rezone are appropriate, the public hearing
should be closed and an additional public hearing be set for
April 23, 1984 to again consider the annexation and rezone.
Continued Utilizing a King County Assessor' s map and the Comprehensive
Plan map displayed in the Chambers, Mr. Clemens designated the
location of the subject site, noting city boundaries exist on
three sides of the proposal . The area is predominantly developed
with single family residential homes; and approval of the
subject requests would allow development of a 16-lot plat.
The proponent has agreed to accept the city' s Comprehensive
Plan, zoning and bonded indebtedness as stipulated on the 75%
petition.
Continued Discussion indicated that recent revision of R-1 zone combined
SR and R-1 classifications into a single zone requiring 7500
square foot lot size and 75-foot frontage width. Responding
to concerns regarding access, Mr. Clemens indicated that
specific access alternatives would be reviewed upon submission
of site development plans. MOVED BY MATHEWS, SECONDED BY
REED, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. MOVED BY

Notice of Intent public meeting continued from March 5, 1984 to consider the
Petition to Honey Creek 10% Notice of Intent Petition to annex 116 acres
Annex
located north and east of NE 27th Street in the area commonly
known as "Devil ' s Elbow." Policy Development Director Clemens
reviewed correspondence from his department which responded to
several questions raised at previous public meeting. The first
question, related to development potential as stipulated on the
Comprehensive Plan, is answered as follows: Area A - approximately
185 dwelling units; Area B - approximately 100-150 dwelling units;
Area C - 60 platted lots which could be developed with
availability of sanitary sewers; and Area D - King County
A
Renton City Council

Public Meeting (Honey Creek Annexation) continued
Continued property located in proposed May Creek Park reveals potential
for only a few single family lots.
Continued Question No. 2, access routes: Area A - from Jefferson Ave. NE
and NE 21st Street from the southwest , and from 122nd Ave. SE
from the north; Area B - NE 16th and NE 18th Streets on the
west and NE 17th Street on the east; Area C - via Union Ave. NE
by SE 100th and 102nd Streets and SE 104th Streets (narrow,
circuitous streets) .
Continued Question No. 3, fiscal impacts to Fire and Police Departments:
Fire - development of areas east of Honey Creek would require
relocation of existing Highlands Fire Station easterly towards
Union Avenue NE and construction of the Kennydale station at
an annual cost estimate of $500,000 (15-man contingent) .
Police - additional patrol area to serve east side of Honey
Creek Valley would require approximately four and one-half
additional officers (approximately $150,000) . Capital cost
estimates for contruction and relocation of Fire Stations are
premature with possibility of approximate half-million dollar
expenditure necessary for Kennydale station construction.
Continued Question No. 4, cost of Devil ' s Elbow improvements: separation
of ownership between the annexation proponents and King County
Parks Department may allow the City to exclude from the
annexation, portions of Devil ' s Elbow Road. However, there
may be objection from both King County and the King County
Boundary Review Board if these portions are excluded. Public
Works Director Houghton indicated that provision of appropriate
street drainage and repair of slide area on Devil ' s Elbow Road
would cost approximately $300,000. However, even with those
improvements, the street would not meet minimum standards.
Continued Discussion indicated the proposed sewer trunk line will be sized
from 12 to 15 inches to handle the entire plateau area; since
the total Planned Unit Development is separated by Devil ' s
Elbow Road, the developer has agreed to phase the timing of the
project, depending upon the economy; Devil ' s Elbow Road to the
south is not crucial to access on either side of the annexing
area, but residents to the north will most likely use it to
reach employment destinations to the west; the City is in the
process of obtaining appraisals for the necessary easements
and right-of-way through the canyon to proceed with the Honey
Creek Interceptor.
Continued Policy Development Department recommendation was reviewed as
follows: The City should proceed with the proposed annexation
of Areas A and B and refer the subject of further development
north and east of Honey Creek to the Committee of the Whole
for policy direction on future development and annexation
proposals. MOVED BY HUGHES, SECONDED BY TRIMM, COUNCIL ACCEPT
THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE POLICY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
REGARDING AREAS A AND B. Deletion of Devil ' s Elbow Road from
the annexation was discussed. Mr. Clemens stated Boundary
Review Board policy to approve or deny annexation proposals,
with no latitude for modification. MOVED BY MATHEWS, SECONDED
BY CLYMER, COUNCIL AMEND THE MOTION TO READ THAT THE BOUNDARY
Devil ' s Elbow LINE ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF PARCEL A SHOULD FOLLOW THE
Eliminated from CURVATURE OF DEVIL' S ELBOW WHICH WOULD ELIMINATE THE PANHANDLE
Annexation TO THE NORTH. CARRIED. ORIGINAL MOTION AS AMENDED CARRIED.
It was noted that proponents of the rezone had agreed to accept
the City' s zoning, Comprehensive Plan, and bonded indebtedness
by signing the 10% petition.

Dear Roger:
Please accept this letter as confirmation of our intention
tc modify our PUD application subsequent to your initial
threshold determination. The changes are as follows:
1 . Redistribute 100 units to the west side of the
creek leaving 85 units on the east.
2. Development to begin immediatly following approval
by the City of Renton on the west side of Honey Creek.
3. Development on the east side of Honey Creek shall
begin within 5 years of approval of this PUD or
when the City of Renton notifies us it can service
that side (whichever is first) . Approval of the
east side shall be in general terms which may
require revision at the time of development.
We will provide more detailed drawings of our intentions
following revision of your threshold determination in light
of our modifications. We do not believe an Environmental
Impact Statement should be required because 1 . ) we are only
asking for 100 residential units at this time 2. )there will
be little or no alteration to plant life as we will be
constructing on the site of the old gravel pit where only
a few alders and fir trees have volunteered following cessation
of excavation 3. )we will not be in or near Honey Creek except
to provide nature trails for public recreation 4. )we have
yeilded to your desire to not develop the east side therefore
not adversly impacting any city services or community
traffic patterns.

Your ongoing co-operation is deeply appreciated.

RE: E wironmental Review - Preliminary PUD/Honey Creek Associates
Dear Mr Johnson:
The Environmental Review Committee has considered the preliminary comments from
various city departments relating to the annexation and development of + 48.5 acres by
the Honey Creek Associates. Each of the responses contained requests for the applicant
to provide more information. These areas of concern included the following: 1) water and
water ccurses; 2) plant life; 3) traffic; 4) public services; 5) utilities; and 6) recreation.
This specific site is located within the designated greenbelt on the City of Renton's
Compreh ensive Plan. As such, the area is considered to be a sensitive area under the
environrr ental ordinances of the City of Renton and extraordinary caution is taken in
reviewin j any project within such guidelines. In addition, when a piece of property is
located .vithin an environmentally sensitive area, the threshhold for the Environmental
Review Committee to require a full impact statement is much less than in other
non-sens.tively designated properties. The Environmental Review Committee will require
an environmental impact statement unless design modifications are made to the subject
proposal.
The project is functionally divided into two areas because of the ravine, and the adverse
environmental impacts are substantially greater when considering the northeast portion of
the site versus the southwest. This difference was based upon the responses from the
Police ar d Fire Departments. In fact, the Police Department suggested that the project
warranted placing another police car on duty which would require approximately 4-1/2
employees to support that position. This would mean an annual cost to the City well in
excess of $100,000. The problems are distance and response time.
Thomas A. Johnson, A.I.A.
March 1, 1984
Page 2
The Fir» Department also had a problem with response time because of the long distance
through the County to the northeast portion of the site. The Fire Department also had
concern; about singular access to the southwest portion of the site. It does appear that a
roadway may be extended to the south from the end of the cul-de-sac into the adjacent
property and easements acquired for emergency access. These properties to the south of
you will also require access for development at some point which will probably tie into the
existing public streets of either Kirkland Place N.E. or N.E. 18th Street. In fact, you may
wish to evaluate this possible access and to acquire and construct a street on this
alignment instead of using the long access road that you presently show.
The Environmental Review Committee must make an environmental determination based
upon a project presented by the applicant. It may be of benefit to the applicant to
evaluate dividing the project into two projects. It appears that the development of the
southwe it property is much more acceptable environmentally even though there may be
some technical design limitations because of slopes and topography.
If I can tie of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
erre.'

REZONE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE SANTA/TOMBERG PROPERTY
JANUARY, 1984
The 48.5 acre Santa/Tomberg site is located adjacent to 120th Place Southeast
Devils Elbow), approximately one mile east of the I-405 Kenneydale Interchange
N.E. 30th Street). The hilly site is covered with dense stands of native vegetation
and is bisected by Honey Creek. The property as it exists is presently undeveloped.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The City of Renton Comprehensive Plan dated June, 1983 has assigned three land
use classifications to the Santa/Tomberg Property: G-1, R-1 and R-2. The G-1
designation (greenbelt) covers the largest land area on the site encompassing the
vegetated ravines and the Honey Creek corridor.
Two natural features which exist on the Santa/Tomberg site, (slopes that average
more than 25% (56%) and the Honey Creek stream corridor) are both identified in
the "Greenbelt Policies" section of the Comprehensive Plan as areas for
greenbelt" designation.
A small portion (5 acres) in the southwest corner of the site has been designated R-
2 or Low Density Multi-Family. The existing development adjacent to the southern
property line is also an R-2 zone. The proposed zoning for the Santa/Tomberg site
is consistent with this land use classification.
The remainder of the Santa/Tomberg property has been designated R-1 or Single
Family Residential on the Comprehensive Plan. This includes the southwestern and
northeastern portions of the site. Adjacent offsite developments are also R-1
residential neighborhoods. The proposed zoning designations on this site are
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan land use classifications for these locations.
UTILITIES
Sanitary Sewer
Sanitary Sewer service for the site will be provided by a sanitary sewer main that
is not currently installed but is expected to be in place by Fall 1984. This sewer
main will be placed along the Honey Creek bed and is known as the "Honey Creek
Interceptor." This location will provide convenient access for sewer to both sides
of the creek.
Water Mains
The existing City of Renton water main system provides for potential connections
on 3 sides of this site. Existing mains that adjoin the site and their locations are as

Water pressure for domestic service will not be a problem for this site. Adequate
water for fire flow also appears to be available. Water main extensions into the
site may be required. A looping system may be required if full development of the
site occurs.
Storm Sewer
All existing storm runoff currently drains into Honey Creek. Development
occuring on this site may require a storm drainage and detention system prior to
discharge into Honey Creek. Control of pollutants will be an important
consideration for development as will control of erosion. The nature of this site
dictates that precautions be taken to prevent the possibility of erosion.
LAND USE ANALYSIS AND AREA ZONING
Although this site has been studied for purposes of the Comprehensive Plan, it has
not been specifically considered for area zoning. This is due to the fact that this
site is part of an annexation petition and currently is subject to King County
Building and Land Development restrictions. This P.U.D./Rezone Application will
be the first opportunity for the City of Renton to consider zoning on this site.

Re: Honey Creek Associates
Request for Reconsideration
Dear Mr. Hendrickson:
I have re viewed your request for reconsideration in the above entitled matter and the
reasons for not modifying the recommendation follow. The paragraphs which follow are
numbered to coincide with those of your request for reconsideration.
1. The statement in the finding was based upon the applicant's representative's
statement at the hearing that the density figure requested was based upon the initial
calculations of the Policy Development Department. It is exerpted from the recorded
testimoni at the current public hearing. It was not intended to, nor does it reflect the
applicant's initial desires nor representations made at the hearings on annexation. It was
primarily aimed at the telling message which was extrapolated as follows: That any
determination in the matter between the Policy Department and the applicant was initial
and preliminary until the public hearing on the request to rezone the property and
construct a particular PUD.
2. Acquiescence on the part of the Building Department in their report cannot be
separated from the rest of the "Preliminary Report To The Hearing Examiner." The
underlined phrase in the previous sentence is the title of the report this office receives
and emphasizes the nature of the recommendations it contains - preliminary. It is obvious
from the record that the hearing was continued to allow that Department time to try to
reconstruct the methodology used to arrive at the density figure now urged by the
applicant. The report indicates that the department believed the calculations were
erroneous, but that the department felt obligated to follow them. Reasoning similar to
that indicated in Paragraph 1, above, must prevail. The analysis was a preliminary
recommendation: the department indicated that they thought the Policy analysis was
erroneous and left the final determination to this office.
3. The decision of this office eliminates any possible uncertainty. Further, this office
maintains that there is no reason to allude to an 'interpretation' as the language is quite
clear that the entire lot is the basis for the determination. The applicant's reasoning
again opens the issue previously stated: Where would one begin determining that the slope
was in excess of 15%? On a site as steep as the subject site, measurements between
almost an/ two non-adjacent contour lines could result in a 15% slope.
ObvLously, the "entire lot" application results in both the steep slope areas and the
non-steep slope areas being treated in a like manner. The intended effect of the PUD
Ordinance is to treat the entire lot as one for purposes of determining density. If it were
not for this like treatment, clustered 'apartment-like' development would not be
permissatle on parcels with single family zoning.
4. Whi, e the City may have mandated development of less than 260 units before even
considering the applicant's request, as has been previously stated, those agreements were
preliminary and subject to review at a public hearing at which both the Hearing Examiner,
and ultimately the City Council, would sit in judgment.
c)
While the consistency in interpretation urged by the applicant is all well and good, if
that interpretation is not sound, it should not be followed after the mistake is identified.
5. Wh le the formula may not be the simplest. the language lends itself to easy usage
by the sI illed professional. If the applicant can persuade this office that the language of
the Uniform Building Code which contains structural and stress analysis formulas or those
formulas related to flow through pipes and sewers utilized by Engineering are easier to
apply, this office might be convinced. A simple tracing by an accurate hand with a
planimeter of all the contour lines of the entire lot (while arduous or tedious appears
easier than calculating roof truss angles), would provide consistent results each time the
method 'vas applied to the same lot. The applicant's methodology. and that erroneously
applied t y the Policy Development Department requires the same methodology but only to
a lesser extent (fewer contour lines must be measured) and applied to only those slopes
over 15%. But then those 15% slopes still have to be determined by someone arbitrarily
fixing scme point on the lot to start measuring for a 15% slope. That method could not be
reproduced exactly, while the formula applied to the entire lot can be.
6. Since there does not appear to be any ambiguity, only a mistaken reading, issues
concerning the derogation of the common law would appear to be inapplicable. This
office is the agency particularly charged with determining the final construction of the
specific ordinance in question and would be ignoring the plain reading of the Ordinance if
any other interpretation were permitted.
It would be difficult to view the decrease in density as a deprivation of development
rights o~ other property rights since the property lies outside of this jurisdication, and the
applicant is free to develop the property under the provisions applicable in King County,
whatever they may be.
The code is clear, while it was incorrectly read or interpreted by staff at one time, that
does not mean it cannot be given a clear reading now or in the future. The phrase "entire
lot" means just that. Severe slopes are at issue and development compromises have to be
made. In this case the Ordinance allows shifting density from steep slopes to more gentle
slopes, therefore, the average across the entire lot.
t
I
While this office has determined that the formula should be applied to the entire slope,
this office sees no reason to recommend to the City Council that the Ordinance be
modifies':. While the applicant may find fault with its result, that does not mean that the
Ordinance is incorrect. The Ordinance appears to reasonably implement policy guiding
development on steep slopes, and while the applicant may prefer other methods, that does
not make the current formula invalid. The applicant is free to urge modification based
upon some policy grounds but the allegation that the existing Policy is incorrect is itself
incorrect.
To conclude that the reading of the Ordinance by this office deprives the applicant of due
process or constitutional rights flies in the face of the facts surrounding this matter. The
applicant is in a more favorable position than most. If the application of the codes in
Renton are unfavorable, the applicant has only to develop under the guidelines of King
County. Further, the applicant should surely realize that since the City Council has to
review the separate annexation petition, that any development plans they may have ha
are entirely tentative, preliminary and conditional. Would ,he applicant claim that th " '
Council cannot deny annexation at this stage because the applicant relied on a year and
one half of negotiation? As the City Council is charged with reviewing the annexation,
this office is charged with reviewing applications for PUDs. The applicant has not shown
that the provision averaging slope across the lot is unreasonable and there is, therefore,
no reason to modify the recommendation.
The appeal period is accordingly extended to April 3, 1985. If this office can be of any
further assistance please feel free to call.
Sincerely,"

Renton, Washington 98055
Re: Honey Creek Associates/R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84
Dear Mr. Kaufman:
This office represents the Honey Creek Associates, the applicant with regard to the
above-referenced proposed rezoning and Preliminary Plan Unit Development (PPUD). The
applicant respectfully requests that the Examiner reconsider the Report and
Recommendation regarding this matter issued on March 4, 1985.
It is the position of the applicant that the aforementioned report and recommendation
includes errors of fact and law in the findings and conclusions contained therein. In this
regard, the Examiner is requested to take into consideration the following points:
1. Initial Density Calculations. It is incorrectly stated at Finding 19 that
preliminary discussions and initial density calculations concluded in the proposed 185
dwelling units. Actually the initial discussions and calculations with City officials regarding
this proposal included 260 dwelling units. This fact is referenced in the comments of Mr.
David R. Clemens, Policy Development Director, in the March 5, 1984 minutes of the
Renton City Council meeting, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A". Subsequent
to that Council meeting, and as a result of discussions with City officials, the applicant
reduced the total number of dwelling units to 185. This is reflected in the applicant's March
8, 1984 letter to Mr. Roger J. Blaylock, (Exhibit "B").
2. Building and Zoning Density Acquienscence. Mr. Blaylock, in behalf of the
Building and Zoning Department, in his letter dated March 21, 1984 (Exhibit "C")
acknowledged the revised density and commented that this change was a step in the "right
direction". No reference is made therein to any allegation regarding improper density. The
proposed density of 185 units was again acknowledged and acquiesed to by both the Policy
Development Department and the Building and Zoning Department in the final Declaration
of Non-significance issued on June 18, 1984 (Exhibit "D").
3. Predictability of Interpretation. It is asserted in Conclusion 10 that the
interpretation of City officials regarding the slope formula in Section 4-2709(4)(B)(2) would
introduce uncertainty. However, a specific threshold of slope percentage has been used in
this instance in applying the slope formula. The formula was applied to all slopes in excess
of fifteen percent. Consequently the formula was applied in a consistent and predictable
Mr. Fred J. Kaufman
March 18, 1985
Page Two
fashion to all steep slope areas. This is consistent with the intent of the Code. On the other
hand, the application of the formula on an "entire lot" basis would not be consistent with the
intent of the code. This would result in a reduction of the allowed density on non-steep
slope areas. The non-steep slope areas are to be developed in a manner consistent only with
the zoning density restictions. "Entire lot" application of the formula results in the
treatment of the non-steep slope and steep slope areas in the same manner without
recognizing the significant difference in slopes and the differing potentials for development.
4. Consistent City Interpretation. The application of the formula to the steep slope
areas in this case was not urged by the applicant, as is referenced in Conclusion 10, but was
rather mandated by City officials. As is referenced above, the applicant has previously
reduced the density from 260 units, at the urging of the City. Throughout the nearly one
and one-half years that this proposal has been considered by the City of Renton, City
officials have consistently applied the slope formula to steep slopes. Only in the last sixty
days have certain officials changed their interpretation and proposed the "entire lot" method
of interpretation.
5. Ambiguity of Ordinance. It is apparent that all parties might agree that the
slope formula is difficult to interpret and to apply. The formula appears to include inherent
ambiguity which fosters different interpretations by extremely competent and professional
persons, both within the City and by private professional parties. It is evident therefore
that the Code section in question not only warrants revision but such revision may be
require i by law.
This Code section has a very significant and direct impact on the ability of land
owners to use their land. In this instance it has been applied to reduce the density of
development from the originally proposed 260 dwelling units to approximately 90 dwelling
units on 47.7 acres. Obviously this results in an extremely low density of development and
to the point of effectively removing the economic feasibility of developing this property.
Where a Code section is applied with such a devestating effect on private property rights,
the City must be certain that it is applying the Code section in a fair and non-arbitrary
manner. It must also be able to conclude that it is applying the Code in a manner consistent
with its intent. As stated by the court in Stastny v. Board of Trustees, 32 Wn. App. 239, 647
P.2d 496 (1982),
Any statute, including a rule or regulation of an administrative agency, which
forbids an act in terms so vague persons of common intelligence must necessarily
guess at its meaning and differ as to its application, violates the first essential
of due process of law. This principal requires the statute provide explicit
standards to prevent arbitrary and discriminatory enforcement." (Citations
omitted.)
In this instance, it is evident that the significant difference in the minds of City officials as
to the application of the Code section in question raises a question as to the consitutionality
of the provision.
Mr. Fred J. Kaufman
March :.8, 1985
Page Three
6. Administrative Construction. It is a well-established principle in law in this
state aid country "that zoning ordinances are in derogation of the common law right of an
owner 10 use private property so as to realize its highest utility. Such ordinances must be
strictly construed in favor of property owners and should not be extended by implication to
cases not clearly within their scope and purpose." Morin v. Johnson, 49 Wn.2d 275 (1956).
Consequently, the Code section in question should be interpreted in a manner that is
consistent with the rights of the applicant to use the property to the fullest extent possible.
The applicant has complied with requests to reduce the density to 185 dwelling units in
recognition of the City's application of the slope formula.
H here there is difficulty in interpreting or applying a specific ordinance, judicial
officials give great weight to the construction of such ordinances by the officials charged
with their enforcement. Morin, supra. In this instance the City officials have applied the
slope formula to the steep slope areas from its outset. The Examiner should similarly give
great weight to the interpretation made by the City officials who are involved in its
enforcement. No recognition should be given to the fact that some officials have at the last
minute changed their interpretation. To recognize such "flip-flopping" would lead to the
type cf arbitrary and discriminatory application of the laws which the courts find
objectionable.
In summary, the applicant requests that the Examiner reconsider the March 4, 1985
report and recommendation, with a specific focus on the application of the slope formula to
this praposal. The interpretation of the formula as applied throughout this case provides
predictability and certainty and is consistent with the intent of steep slope restrictions. To
conclude otherwise, is inconsistent with the construction applied by the City officials in the
nearly one and one-half years that this matter has been under review. In the event the
Examiner determines that the slope formula should be applied on an entire lot basis,
remedial legislation should be proposed to the City Council in order that the provision can
be changed through proper legislative channels. However, to alter its meaning in "mid-
stream" with regard to this application runs contrary to the applicant's rights to due process
and equal protection under the laws.
I': is requested that a supplemental hearing be established in order that the foregoing
and other points may be more thoroughly discussed.
Thank you for your consideration of the foregoing points.
Very truly yours,
IU ;

Policy Development Director David R. Clemens explained concurrent
review of rezone, planned unit development & annexation has been
requested for Council approval in accordance with new procedures.
Utilizing a display map, Mr. Clemens outlined boundaries of the
proposal : Area A, approximately 54 acres, former gravel excavation
area located north of NE 20th and east of Jefferson Avenue NE;
Area B, approximately 14 acres, located between NE 16th and
NE 20th Street immediately east of Kirkland Avenue NE; Area C,
approximately 22 acres, located between SE 100th and SE 104th
Streets (Sierra Height No. 5 plat) ; and Area D,
approximately26acresofprimarilyKingCountyproperty, located in the middle
portion of proposed May Creek Park (between SE 93rd Street and
SE 95th Way east of 116th Avenue SE) . Of the entire annexation
area,
rezone and PUD approval are being sought on only 48 acresofAreaA,
and Council clarification is requested of whether a PUD
can be included in the simultaneous review process.
Continued
Mr. Clemens reiterated staff comments as follows: Building &
Zoning Department supported inclusion of property between the
annexing area and Union Avenue NE for access purposes; Parks
Department suggested additional park land and open space areas
be required; Finance Department indicated that the annexation
will Improve feasibility of Honey Creek Sewer Interceptor
construction with additional contributions from new residents;
Public Works Department Indicated that annexation represents
a logical extension of utilities; Police and Fire Departments
expressed -considerable concern regarding public safety service
to the annexing area due to steep topography and poor access
roads.
Additional staffing would be required to serve the area
for which 60 new single family homes and 200 multiple family
units are proposed if all approvals are granted.

Therefore, the 75% petition application for the annexation

Continued Audience comment: Curtis J. Martin, 3728 Park Avenue N. ;
Roger Green, 9818 124th Avenue SE; Bob Tomberg, 5611 119th
SE #2, Bellevue; Pat Sado, 9902 126th Avenue SE; Mr. Visick,

4444 Issaquah-Pine Lake Road, Issaquah; Russel Bergeron, 2807
NE 21st Street. Concerns included use of the proposed area
for dumping purposes (wrecked autos, appliances) and responsibility
for clean-up; narrow access roads in the area, specifically,
Devil ' s Elbow Road, SE 100th and SE 104th Streets, which are
substandard; maintenance of greenbelt areas; protection of
Honey Creek; need for trunk line extension in area because lots
will not percolate for septic systems; and assurance of adequate
fire and police protection. Dr. Tomberg, representing Honey
Creek Associates, owners of Area A, indicated extension of the
trunk line will occur with or without the development, and
annexation will increase the tax base and defer costs of trunk
line installation; the area is now used by motorcyclists and
for dumping purposes; the proposed development will be clustered
on approximately 12 acres of the 48-acre site, and located well
away from environmentally-sensitive Honey Creek; greenbelts will
be maintained and debris removed; access is proposed to the east
and south of the west side of Honey Creek to avoid adverse impact
to the existing road systems; U.S. Geology maps show no coal mines
in the area but that will be investigated prior to development;
police and fire protection and response time will be greatly
improved when responsibility is transferred from King County
to City of Renton. Dr. Tomberg requested approval of the request
for simultaneous review of the annexation. rezone and PUD
applications; however, he noted that no firm -development plans
have been submitted at this stage.
Continued Mr. Clemens explained the City' s rationale for including all
four parcels in the original annexation proposal as a logical
extension of City boundaries; however, evidence of potential
development problems and hazards have changed the departmental
recommendation to include only two parcels. Responding to
inquiry regarding whether review by Committee of the Whole of
certain public safety issues related to Areas C and D of the
annexation area would obviate the Council ' s objectivity in
considering the entire matter, City Attorney Warren advised
that the Council would be making a policy determination, which
is permissible. Mr. Clemens indicated that the applicant has
agreed to accept the three stipulations in accordance with
State law to proceed with annexation (City zoning, Comprehensive
Plan, and bonded indebtedness) . Since all property owners in
Areas A and B support the annexation, the 75% petition
requirements can be satisfied if the Council reduces the scope
of the proposal . Annexation of other areas may be pursued on
a case-by-case basis.
Continued Fire Chief Lee Wheeler clarified that with current staffing,
the Fire Department can adequately serve Area B and the westerly
portion of Area B; however, concern exists in serving Areas C.
D and the easterly portion of Area A. MOVED BY STREDICKE,

Dear
Please accept this letter as confirmation of our intention
to modify our PUD ai olicati:.n subsequent to your initial
thresnco].d determination. The changes are as follows:
1 . Redistribute 1CY) units to the west side of the
creek leaving 85 units on the est.
2. • Development to begin imrr,ed_atl y following approval
by the City of Renton an the west side of Honey Creek.
3. Development on the east side of Honey Creek shall
begin within 5 years of approval of this PUD or
when the City of Renton notifies us it can service
that side (whichever is first) . Approval of the
east side shall be in general terms which may
require revision at the time of development.
We will provide more detailed drawings of our intentions
following revision of your threshold determination in light
of our modifications. We do not believe an Environmental
Impact ,Statement should be required because 1 . ) we are only
asking for 100 residential units at this time 2. ) there will
be little or no alteration to plant life as we will be
constructing on the site of the old gravel pit where only
a few alders and fir trees have volunteered following cessation
of excavation 3. )we will not be in or near Honey Creek except
to provide nature trails for public recreation 4. )we have
yeilded to your desire to not devel y. the east side therefore
not adversly impacting any city services or community

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
The Renton Environmental Review Committee is in receipt of your letter dated March 8,
1984, stating your confirmation to modify the above referenced PUD application as
recommended by our committee.
As we seated in our letter of March 1, 1984, that because the project is functionally
divided by the ravine, greater environmental impacts are of great concern for the
northeast portion of the site in respect to distance and response time for police and fire
services. By limiting development at this time to the southwest corner of the site, we
feel that you are approaching this situation in the right direction.
In order for the committee to make its final environmental determination, we are
requesting that you notify your architect to prepare a revised site plan detailing your
intentions. The plan should also incorporate a concern we had addressed for secondary
access to the southwest portion of the site. This was detailed in our letter of March 1.
Please submit four prints of this revised site plan, along with any other pertinent
information, to the Building & Zoning Department at your earliest convenience so that an
environmental declaration can be made. Until this is accomplished, the application will
remain on our agenda under Pending Business.

Project Description
The Santa/Tomberg property is located in unincorporated King
County adjacent to 120th P1. S. E. , approximately one mile east of
the I-405 Kennydale Interchange (N. E. 30th Street ) . The hiLly
property is bisected by Honey Creek, and is presently unimproved.
The property is bounded on the west and south by the Renton City
Limits. The proposed action includes annexation of the property
to the City of Renton.
A Planned Unit Development (P. U. D. ) consisting of 185
multifamily residential units is proposed for the Santa/Tomberg
Property. Because the site is bisected by the steep Honey Creek
ravine, the P. U. D. would be constructed as two geographically
separate areas, on either side of the ravine. Pedestrian
recreational paths may link the two areas, but no direct
vehicular links are proposed. Each area would have its own
parking, tennis court, tot lot, and swimming pool for use by
residents and their guests only. The northeast area of the site
would have 112 multifamily residential units (80 two story
stacked flat units and 32 townhouse units ) and approximately 175
parking stalls. Vehicular access would be via an extension of
122nd Avenue S. E. , which presently intersects S. E. 95th Way. The
southwest area of the site would have 73 multifami' y residential
units (60 two story stacked flat units and 13 townhouse units )
and approximately 118 parking stalls. Vehicular access would be
via extensions of Jefferson Avenue N. E. to the north, and N. E.
21st Street to the east, which would intersect within the site.

Existing Conditions
The attached figures show the street network in northeast
Renton and the vicinity of the Santa/Tomberg site. Freeway
access is via the I-405 Kennydale Interchange (N. E. 30th Street )
and the I-405 North Renton Interchange (N. E. Park Dr. ) . The City
of Renton Arterial Street Map shows the N. E. Park Drive - N. E.
Sunset Blvd. route as a major arterial. The N. E. 30th Street -
Kennewick P1. N.E. - N. E. 27th Street - Edmonds Avenue N.E. route
is a secondary arterial, as is Union Avenue Northeast. N.E. 12th
Street is a collector arterial . The King County Interim
Transportation Plan: Focus 1990 shows Coal Creek Parkway S. E.
136th Avenue S. E. ) as a major arterial. The S. E. 95th Way -.
120th P1. S. E. route and 132nd Avenue S. E. are shown as collector
arterials. There are no designated arterials within the area
bounded by Edmonds Avenue N.E. , the S. E. 27th Street - 120th P1.
S. E. - S. E. 95th Way route, Union Avenue N.E. (132nd Avenue
S. E. ) , N. E. Sunset Blvd. , and N. E. 12th Street.The
Santa/Tomberg property is close to the middle of this area, which
measures one mile from Edmonds Avenue N. E. to Union Avenue N. E. ,
and nearly one mile from N. E. Sunset Blvd. to S. E. 95th Way.
The streets in the area generally have two lanes, with the
exception of the four-lane N.E. Park Drive - N. E. Sunset Blvd.
Route. Traffic control signals are located on this route at the
I-405 freeway ramps, Sunset Blvd. N. E. , Edmonds Avenue N. E. ,
Harrington Avenue N. E. , N. E. 10th Street, N. E. 12th Street, Union
Avenue N. E. , and Duvall Avenue N.E.

Figure 1 shows 1983 average weekday traffic volumes adjusted
from counts taken by the City of Renton, King County, and 'I'P&E.
Traffic delays and some congestion occurs at the signalized
intersections on the high-volume N. I . Park Dr. - N. E. Sunset
Blvd. route particularly during °the peak hours. Traffic
generally flows freely on the other arterials in the area, with
occasional generally brief delays experienced by motorists
turning onto or crossing these arterials from side streets.
Future Conditions
Figure 2 shows projected 1989 average daily traffic volumes
in the vicinity without the Santa/Tomberg P. U. D. These volumes
are based on the 1983 AWLYP ' s and projected to 1989 assuming a 3%
annual traffic volume growth rate. This is a moderate background
traffic volume growth rate which is based on the assumption that
traffic volume growth will be roughly in proportion to population
growth in the area. This 3% rate is the annualized growth rate
calculated from the 1978 and 1990 populations for the northeast
Renton planning area, contained in the City of Renton Northeast
Renton Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed Santa/Tomberg P. U. D. is expected to generate
approximately 1480 vehicular trips on an average weekday at full
occupancy. A vehicular trip is defined as "a single or
one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or.
destination (exiting or entering ) inside the study site" (Trip
Generation - An Informational Report,Institute of
Transportation Engineers, Third Edition, 1983 ) . This estimate is
based on 185 multifamily units and a trip generation rate of 8
trips per unit. The studies conducted for the ITE report show an
average rate of 7. 9 trips per unit, with a maximum of 10. 0 trips
per unit and a minimum of 6. 2 trips per unit for planned unit
developments. The ITE average rates indicate that approximately
150 trips (10% ) would occur during the AM peak hour, with about
half leaving and half entering the Santa/Tomberg site. About 150
trips ( 10% ) would also occur during the PM peak hour , with about
85 entering and about 65 leaving the site. Approximately 900 of
the average weekday trips would be generated in the northeast
area of the site, with the remaining 580 daily trips generated in
the southwest area of the site.
4
Figure 3 shows the estimated distribution of the P. U. D.
site-generated average weekday traffic onto the street network.
About 60% of the traffic generated by the southwest area of the
P. U. D. is expected to use Kirkland Avenue N. E. south to N. E. 12th
Street and beyond. Some traffic will use N. E. 21st Street,
Harrington P1. N. E. , and N. E. 23rd Pl . (or N. E. 23rd Street ) as a
short route between the site and the Kennydale Interchange, to
use I-405 to the north. A smaller percentage is expected to use
Harrington Avenue N. E. and N. E. 16th Street as a route to Edmonds
Avenue Northeast.
The primary access to the northeast area of the site will be
on 122nd Avenue S. E. to S. E. 95th Way. A secondary access has ,
been suggested on S. E. 100th Street, connecting through to 132nd
Avenue N. E. (Union Avenue N.E. ) via several residential streets.
Though this access is not shown on the current Santa/Tomberg
P. U. D. -site plan, it would enhance the accessibility of the
northeast area of the site, and therefore has been included in
this traffic analysis. It is expected that about. 40% of the
northeast site area traffic would use this S. E. 100th Street
route to Union Avenue N. E. , continuing on to the Renton Highlands
business areas, or to Renton proper. The 60% of the northeast
site area traffic using 122nd Avenue S. E. is expected to split
nearly evenly to the east and to the west on S. E. 95th Way.
Northbound traffic would continue on to either I-405 or Coal
Creek Parkway.
If access to S. E. 100th Street is not provided for the
northeast site area, then all 900 trips would use 122nd Avenue
Southeast. Of these it is estimated that about 350 would use
S.E. 95th Way to the west, and about 550 would use S. E. 95th Way
to the east.
5
Figure 4 shows projected 1989 AWDT ' s with the Santa/Tomberg
P. U. D. fully occupied. The traffic volumes shown generally are
the sum of the traffic volumes shown on Figures 2 and 3 . It is
assumed that the northeast P. U. D. site area would have access to
S. E. 100th Street. The on-site roadways would connect 122nd
Avenue S.E. to S. E. 100th Street. A small amount of the existing
traffic generated by the existing residential areas east of the
site may use this route as a shortcut to Kennydale. The AWDT on
S. E. 100th Street would probably be in the range of 400 - 500.
If access is not provided to S. E. 100th Street, then the
1989 AWDT on 122nd Avenue S. E. would be approximately 1300.
These projected traffic volumes on 122nd Avenue S. E. are higher
than traffic volumes on most typical residential local access
streets. Rather than serving as simply a residential street,
122nd Avenue S. E. would function as a neighborhood collector by
helping to provide mobility from the intersecting streets to the
S. E. 95th Way arterial. The 122nd Avenue S. E. roadway appears to
be in good physical condition and will provide this function
safely and efficiently. Since S. E. 95th Way is such a low volume
arterial, its intersection with 122nd Avenue S. E. would continue
to function well, with only occasional brief delays to side
street traffic. The installation of stop or yield signs on S. E.
96th P1. east and west of 122nd Avenue S. E. should be considered.
Traffic generated by the P. U. D. would have several impacts
on the N. E. 21st Street - Harrington P1. N. E. - N. E. 23rd P1.
and N. E. 23rd Street ) route. N. E. 21st Street east of
Harrington P1. N. E. is presently constructed as a half-street,
with a 20 ' wide pavement and curb and gutter only on the south
side. This relatively short street segment will need to be
widened in order to safely accomodate the increased traffic
volumes due to the P. U. D. The increased traffic volumes on N. E.
23rd P1. and N.E. 23rd Street will probably not be very
6
noticeable to residents because the total volumes will still be
relatively low, and well within the typical volume range on
residential streets. Both of these streets have recently been
improved, including new pavement and curb and gutter, so they
will easily accomodate the increased volumes. Tncreased traffic
volumes on Harrington P1. N. E. between N. E. 21st Street and N. E.
23rd Street may be more noticeable to residents. This street
segment appears to be in fair to poor physical condition, with
patchy pavement and no curb or gutter. However, the expected
traffic volumes and traffic operations on Harrington P1. N.E.
will still be acceptable for a residential local access street.
The very sl ort seymenl. cat Jefferson Av_nue N. E. north ol:
Kirkland Avenue N. E. may need some repairs to the existing
pavement. Kirkland Avenue N. E. and N. E. 16th Street appear to be
in reasonably good condition, and will easily accomodate the
increased traffic volumes. These streets function as
neighborhood collectors and will continue to do so effectively.
Virtually no P. U. D. - generated traffic is expected to use
Hillcrest Lane Northeast. '['his relatively narrow route which
neanders through the rest home and its parking area is not really
a shortcut, and its use would require an extra stop. Kirkland
Avenue N. E. would be a much faster and more easily negotiated
route.
The P. U. D. - generated traffic is not expected to have a
significant impact on the intersection of Kirkland Avenue N. E.
and N. E. 12th Street. Left turning and through traffic on
Kirkland Avenue N. E. experienced level of service C during the
1983 PM peak hour. Calculations for the 1989 PM peak hour
indicates that this left turning or through traffic would
experience level of service D with or without the P. U. D. -
generated traffic.

1.Section 4- 3014(C), Change of Zone Classification.
2.Title 4, Chapter 27, Planned Unit Development Ordinance.
G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1.The applicant, Honey Creek Associates, is requesting a joint annexation,
rezone, and preliminary planned unit development approval on a site of 47.7
acres. The Hearing Examiner conducts the public hearing for the rezone
request and the preliminary planned unit development. The following analysis
divides the two requests and applies the appropriate criteria.
REZONE
2.The applicant is requesting a rezone of 47.7 acres into the following three
zoning classifications:
R- 2 Multiple Family Residential 6 acres
R 1 Single Family Residential 29 acres
G- 1 General Use 12.7 acres
The requested rezone appears to be appropriate based upon the review
criteria.
3.The Hearing Examiner must consider the specific review criteria under
Section 4. 3014(C)(1):
a. That substantial evidence was presented demonstrating the subject
reclassification appears not to have been specifically considered at the
time of the last area land use analysis and area zoning.
The property is in the joint procedure of concurrent annexation and
rezone review and has not been specifically considered by the City in
either of its last land use analysis or area zoning.
b. That the property is potentially classified for the proposed zone being
requested pursuant to the policies set forth in the Comprehensive Plan
and conditions have been met which would indicate the change is
appropriate.

FEBRUARY 19, 1985
PAGE 3
The Comprehensive Plan Map for the Northeast Quadrant shows an area
in the southwest corner of the subject site as potentially Low Density
Multiple Family. The central portion of the site, where Honey Creek is
located, was designated as part of the Greenbelt while there were two
areas in the northeast and eastern portion of the site that were
generally designated as Single Family Residential.
The Comprehensive Plan is a general guide and a general policy
document. Specific review of the site shows that there are slopes
exceeding reasonable limits where development should be prohibited. It
appears that the specific site was not considered in detail during the
Comprehensive Plan process. Basically, the topography of the site
directs where certain development activities should be located and, in
fact, was one of the primary reasons for only developing the southwest
corner of the subject site since public services are not available east of
Honey Creek. Therefore it does appear that the Comprehensive Plan
Map and policies do support the requested rezone.
c. 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.
The subject site has never been zoned within the City of Renton, but it
does appear that development surrounding the site has generally
increased to the south and west of the subject site. Weatherwood II
borders the site on the west and the housing developments from WW II
borders the site on the south. Access can now be provided by extending
public streets into the subject site.
d. The final test to determine whether a rezone is appropriate is to
address the question of timeliness.
The final criterial for evaluation of a rezone request is timeliness.
The subject property appears to be the next incremental piece of
property as the City expands eastward in this general area. In fact, the
site has been surrounded by other development because of the
limitations of slope and accessibility until this time. In addition, public
improvements including sewer and water have not been available to the
site in the past. This would suggest that it is timely to rezone the
property for development.
PRELIMINARY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
4.The applicant is seeking a PPUD to allow the construction of 185 units on a
total of 47.7 acres in two phases. The first phase consists of 99 units located
in the southwest corner of the subject site. The remainder of the
development will be located in the northeast portion of the site when services
are eventually available.
The development will include 78 apartment style units stacked in three-story
buildings along with 8 apartment units in a two-story building with the
remaining 13 units as townhouse units in the extreme southwest corner of the
site. The development will also include a cabana, spa, pool, tot-lot, and
tennis courts for the on- site recreational amenities of Phase I.
5. Minimum site area required in a PUD by Section 4- 2708(1) is four (4) acres.
The subject complies with this criteria.
PREL11 NARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINE},
HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES: R-014-84, PPUD-015-84
FEBRUARY 19, 1985
PAGE 4
6.The proposal must comply with a series of standards and development
criteria. The applicant, at this time, is not proposing to subdivide the
property for subsequent sale.
7.Approximately 70% of the site is retained in open space because of
topography. Steep ravines surrounding Honey Creek makes that area almost
unbuildable for residential development. This complies with the minimum
20% requirement for outdoor open space.
8.Specific residential open space per dwelling unit will be shown with the final
design plans in the final PUD. Most of the outdoor open space has been
concentrated around the recreational activities in the southwest corner of
the proposal. Approximately 25% of the level plateau of 9.5 acres has been
retained for outdoor recreational space. It appears that, in the conceptual
stage, the proposal complies with this intent, but specific detailed
calculations will have to accompany the final PUD for approval.
9.The applicant has set back all of the structures so that a minimum 25 foot
landscaped buffer can be provided along the western property line which
abuts the single family residential area. In fact, that area will be left in
perpetual open space because of the roadway extension for Jefferson Avenue
N.E. will bend slightly to the east and come down to service the planned unit
development. The only thing crossing the greenbelt would be the extensions
of already established streets at N.E. 21st and N.E. 23rd streets.
10.Building "J" is approximately 85 feet from the western property line of the
proposed project. Single family residences are located to the west of the
project and Building "J" would have be located at least 100 feet from that
property line or comply with the specific height and size criteria. Building
J" appears to be over that criteria, but it could be either moved or reduced
in size by breaking the five proposed units into two buildings. This should be
specifically addressed as a special requirement in the final PUD.
11.Where a PUD is located adjacent to special areas where flood water, steep
slopes, or geological hazards, additional criteria are added. In this special
case, the site is specifically limited by its steep slopes. Approximately 20.8
acres of the 47.7 acre site has slopes in excess of 15%. The PUD ordinance
specifically calls out for a reduction in density for those areas. The average
slope for those areas is approximately 55.9% by utilizing the slope formula
5=100 x I x L/A).
This slope was determined based upon using the 25 foot contour interval over
the 20.8 acres of sloped area. Based upon that calculation, the following
density calculations are appropriate.

The Building and Zoning Department initially calculated the density based
upon the slope formula across the entire lot. The Policy Development
Department, in its initial review of the annexation, calculated it only on the
steep sloped areas. The City Code does not appear to be specific and
therefore the Building and Zoning Department concurs with the earlier
calculations of Dave Clemens, the Policy Development Director.
ISSUE
12. The primary issue is whether access is adequate to allow the development of
99 units in the southwest corner of the subject site?
The Environmental Review Committee specifically reviewed this problem and
issued their declaration to allow only the 99 units (Phase I) "provided that
access to the subject property shall be provided from Jefferson Avenue N.E.,
N.E. 21st Street, and N.E. 23rd Street. N.E. 23rd Street shall be built to city
standards and dedicated to the City from the project's west property line to
Harrington Place N.E. Jefferson Avenue N.E. shall be extended northward to
connect with N.E. 23rd Street and shall be build to city standards and
dedicated to the City". The primary problem is that the estimated traffic of
approximately 600 vehicle trips will pass through single family residential
areas. Six hundred (600) vehicle trips were not considered significant by the
Environmental Review Committee to require a full Environmental Impact
Statement or to prohibit the project.
Emergency access will be provided at N.E. 23rd Street will a possibility of
future expansion to a full public street while full streets will be brought into
the subject site at N.E. 21st Street and Jefferson Avenue N.E. Since there
are two access points, it would appear that traffic could either go to the
south through an existing low density multiple family area or to the west
through a single family area. The site is approximately two blocks east of
Edmonds Avenue N.E. which is a major arterial and provides the major
collector arterial function for this neighborhood.
13.The subject site still has a problem with the steep slopes and the possibility
of slope instability resulting from the initial construction. Special measures
may have to be taken during construction to control the temporary erosion
and revegetate some of the steeper slopes. Extensive hydroseeding may be
necessary along with additional plantings and it would be appropriate for the
applicant, during the final PUD approval, to submit specific revegetation
plans for review by the Landscape Architect and the Hearing Examiner.
14.Comments from the various City departments focused upon the problems of
storm drainage, sewage disposal, and access. Since the original application
was submitted early in 1984, the City has acquired the necessary easements
to locate the new Honey Creek sewer trunkline along the central ravine
shown running through the subject site. The City will construct the main
sewer line and maintenance roadway along the bottom of the ravine. The
issue of available sewer has been resolved. Access can be resolved by
construction of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and the tie- in at N.E. 21st Street and
emergency tie- in at N.E. 23rd Street. The Environmental Review Committee
has specifically considered plans and approved those for the emergency
access at N.E. 23rd Street.
15.In conclusion, the PUD proposal appears appropriate in that it provides
adequate buffers, access, public services, and follows the intent and function
of the Comprehensive Plan. The Hearing Examiner should recognize that
even though the application states 185 units totally, that only 179 units can
be constructed under the present calculations. In addition, the northeast
portion of the site is included in the land area but not approved for review by
the Environmental Review Committee until adequate utilities and services
are available to the east of Honey Creek.

REVISION 5/1982
Form 182
In the initial review of this proposed Rezone/Planned Unit Development, the
Environmental Review Committee was advised by several City departments that
addition..il information would be necessary in the following areas:
1. Water, Water Courses
2. Traffic Impacts
3. Public Services (especially Fire)
4. Utilities
5. Recreation
A revise3 plan addressing some of these concerns was submitted to the Building and
Zoning Department on April 16, 1984. Based upon review of this plan, the following
observations can be made:
o No development should be permitted on the east side of Honey Creek for five
5) years or until the City can provide water, sewer, and public safety services,
whichever occurs first.
Regarding traffic, approximately 782 Average Daily Trips can be expected to
result from this first phase development. Traffic as such should not be a major
problem. However, the specific access points and range of improvements must
be stipulated.
Related to traffic, the Fire Department has expressed concern about apparent
singular access to the southwest portion of the site from N.E. 21st Street and
Jefferson Avenue N.E. The revised site plan submitted indicates an emergency
access extending south from the end of the proposed cul-de-sac to Kirkland
Place N.E. An easement for this access must be secured and properly improved.

MEMORANDUM
TO Environmental Review Commit e - Jerry Lind DATE 2-2-84
FROM Jim Matthew, Fire Marshal
SUBJECT Response to Annexation posal ECF - 014-84/Rezone R-014-84/PPUD-015-8.
Water Utilities
Current fire flow to this area is minimal for single family residence. A water distribution
main system would be required to provide larger flows for fire suppression. The average
fire flow required for a typical wood-frame building just under 12,000 square feet is 3000
gpm at 20 psi. All buildings 12,000 square feet or more would be required to be sprinklered.
Fire Response
Renton Fire Department response to the proposed area is anticipated to be from either
side of the ravine, depending on the location of the-incident. Fire and aid incidents in
the southwesterly portion of the development would require response via Harrington or
Kirkland Avenue N.E. to Jefferson Avenue N.E. The estimated time of response from
the first-in fire company located at N.E. 9th and Harrington Avenue N.E. would be
two-three minutes. The response to the northeasterly portion of the development would
more than likely be via Edmonds Avenue N.E. to N.E. 27th, east on N.E. 27th to 122 Avenue
S.E., south on 122 Avenue S.E. to the development. Response time statistics are not
available to that area at present, however it is anticipated that they would be in excess
of four minutes, given the present condition of N.E. 27th, S.E. 97th, 120th Place S.E. or
Devils Elbow", as it is more commonly referred.
Alternative response routes would greatly increase the travel distance, thereby increasing
the response time. Response time to areas along Union Avenue N.E. inside-the city are
in excess of five minutes at present.
If this annexation is approved, an upgrading of the roadway to City of Renton street
standards should be required along S.E. 97th and 120th Place S.E. to provide safe vehicle
travel.
Scope of Annexation
Due to the irregular boundaries that would be created by this proposal, the scope of this
annexation should be increased to include the area bounded by the present city limits
on the west, S.E. 95th Way on the north, and the present quarter section line depicted
on the east.
Emergency Vehicle Access Roadways
Two means of emergency vehicle access are required for both sites. One of which may
be gated or secured in a manner approved by the Fire Chief.
The Fire Code requires all access roads in excess of 150 feet in length, be equipped with
an approved turnaround for fire vehicles. An outside turning radius of 45 feet is required
for parking or access roads. Access roads are required to be a minimum of 20 feet in
width.
In summary, the attached annexation and PUD is not approved, subject to changes with
suggested and revised nlnns to hp c,,hmitted.
Access depicted on the revised site plan does not provide sufficient details to indicate how it
will connect to the present Kirkland Place N.E. Additional information is needed on proposed
grade of the access road. (Eight percent allowed without application to the Board of Public Works
for variance.) Access proposed should be an extension of the private drive and be open to the
public without barricades.
Cul-de-sac with planting islands will be required to be marked "Fire Lane No Parking" unless
islands are removed.
Detailed water utility and other fire protection required will be made at the time of the building
permit application.

SIGNAT RE OF 'IRECTOR OR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
REVISION 5/1982
Form 182
The proposed development of this area gives great concern to the Police
Departmeit for the following reasons.
1) Roadways now existing cannot handle the large influx of traffic
that this project will generate.
2) Accessibility to the area will greatly hamper the law enforcement
task due to the deep ravine and no motor vehicle crossings from
one group of buildings to the other.
SCENERIO°
Officer A is charged with the responsibility of providing police services to the
R-7 and is in the easterly-most group of condos when he receives a call to
the westerly group. He must exit the area via SE 100th to Union and then to
Sunset tc, NE 12th to Kirkland Avenue NE to Jefferson and the entrance to the
westerly portion of the project. I feel that this is entirely unrealistic
and places both the officers and citizens in an undue hazardous situation.
If this project becomes a reality, I will recommend that an additional patrol
vehicle be manned and placed in. service in the Highlands area. This will
necessiti°.te 42 additional officers (to cover 24 hours) a vehicle and all
equipment..

RE: Santa Tomberg P.U.D./Revised Submission R-014-64, pPLAD -OiS'Y1q-
Dear Mr. Easter:
Pursuant to our conversation of last week, I have re-evaluated the situation and believe
that it would be easier to consider an adjustment in the rezone request rather than in the
Preliminary Planned Unit Development.
The rezone request must be accompanied by specific legal descriptions showing those
areas tc be rezoned. .In this case, I would advise you to modify the Assessor's map that
you sub•nitted to relocate five acres of proposed R--2 zoning to the mid level plateau
lying in the southwest corner of the subject site. The 2.1 acres that have slopes over 15%
in the southwest corner should be rezoned into an R- 1 classification. The ravine itself,
which lies to the north and east of the R. 2 area, should be designated G- 1 for General
Use. Basically, this area is a greenbelt. The other R. 1 areas would lie to the northeast
and east of the Phase I development area.
I also believe that the figures can be modified slightly to assure that you come into the
same final development density of 185 units as initially proposed. In calculating the final
density )f the P.U.D., you must eliminate that property that will be dedicated for the
extension of Jefferson Avenue N.E. along with connections from N.E. 21st Street and N.E.
23rd Street.
Mel Easter

Also, it is my understanding that we will prepare the exhibits for presentation during the
public hearing except for the revised Assessor's maps including the appropriate legal
descr.ptions and one colored drawing of the preliminary P.U.D. map, which your office
will provide.
If I can be of any further assistance, please call me immediately.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 24, 1985
TO: Planning and Development Committee
FROMVI:/?"-5 Roger J. Blaylock, Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT: Honey Creek Annexation/Concurrent Rezone and P.U.D. Applications
The City Council in 1983, adopted a policy that allowed an applicant to submit a joint
annexat..on and rezone application. Subsequently, the City received an application to
annex, rezone, and review a preliminary planned unit development from Honey Creek
Associates. There was confusion on whether the City Council had agreed to such a policy
and to what extent development plans could be reviewed.
The City Council minutes of March 5th and 19th of last year appear to state that
concurrent applications could be considered by the Hearing Examiner at one public
hearing. However, what the minutes actually state is that the Council approved the
recommendation of the Policy Development Department. There is no clear policy
statement by the City Council on this issue.
The Hez ring Examiner has questioned what authority to consider a development project
outside -)f the city limits. I have referred him to the minutes, but it would be better if a
definite policy was made by the Council.
ISSUE:
In addition, the general policy concerning development review prior to annexation should
be made. In effect, what land use issues can the Hearing Examiner or Board of Public
Works, cr Board of Adjustment consider before annexation?
R EC OM!AENDATION:
The Building and Zoning Department believes that all land use reviews could be considered
and conditioned upon annexation. These would specifically include decisions by: 1) the
Hearing Examiner, 2) the City Council, and 3) the Board of Public Works. Actions such as
rezones, site plan approvals, special permits for fill and grade, preliminary plats, short
plats, variances, and preliminary planned unit developments could be considered before
annexation.

MEMORANDUM
January 22, 1985
TO: Fred J. Kaufman, Hearing Examiner
FROM:
Roger73N/9j J. Blaylock, Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT: Santa/Tomberq Rezone and PUD/Concurrent Hearings
After Uncovering our potential problem with hearing both the Preliminary PUD and the
Rezone proposal for the Honey Creek Annexation area at one hearing, our department
investicated the original authority which allowed Building and Zoning Department to
receive both applications. On March 5, 1984, after a request by the applicants, the City
Council considered review of the Planned Unit Development and the Rezone together.
Oral presentations were submitted to the Council by Dave Clemens, Policy Development
Director; and the Council on March 19th established a policy for concurrent applications.
Therefore, in this specific case, joint applications are appropriate.
In the meantime, the applicant has submitted a second letter to the City Council
requesting confirmation of their ability to submit both applications and be considered by
the City Council in one process. The City Council has now scheduled that item before the
Planning and Development Committee on Thursday, January 24th.
The Building and Zoning Department will be able to present a total discussion concerning
the merits of the Rezone and Planned Unit Development for the Hearing Examiner at the
public hearing scheduled for February 19, 1985. Both legal notices and general vicinity
postings will be redone for the public hearing plus notifying the three individuals that
appeared at the first public hearing.

SUBJECT: PPUD, HONEY CREEK
As I reviewed your memorandum of January 9, 1985 I realized the range of matters which
had been scheduled for the January 15, 1985 hearing.
I believe, if reference is made to Section 4-2707, you will find that this office lacks
extraterritorial jurisdiction to entertain a PPUD for property not now currently lying
within tie boundaries of the City of Renton. That section provides that "Planned unit
devoloprients shall be permitted in any zone within the City..." The subject site is not
within the City.
I realize the City, through state enabling law, can reclassify property which is subject to a
proposed annexation, but unless documentation can be provided which indicates the City
can also affect a Planned Unit Development extraterritorially, I will not entertain the
PPUD ur til annexation is completed.

RE. ONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES REZONE/PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
R-014-84 AND PPUD-015-84
The Building and Zoning Department can not comply with Section 4-3012
of Land Use Hearing Examiner Ordinance and provide a staff report to
the Hearing Examiner the required seven (7) days before the scheduled
public hearing.
At the time of preparation of the final report, it was discovered that
three major errors existed. First, the applications include property
that was not included in the annexation. Both the rezone and P.U.D.
applications were not reduced in area after the annexation was revised.
Secondly, the plans do not reflect the ERC' s decision to require
dedication of Jefferson Ave. N.E. along the western property line.
Lastly and probably the most serious problem is that the dwelling
unit count that the Building and Zoning Department has just calculated
under the P.U.D. process is approximately one-half of what the developer
and the Policy Development Director calculated in early 1984. We can
not find the documentation that supported the final decision to have
the applicant apply for a P.U.D. with 185 dwelling units.
since the application should be substantially revised, we request that
the public hearing be continued until February 19th or 26th. This
could allow review time and legal notice time by reposting the property
and new advertisements in the Record Chronicle.

As part of the traffic analysis we would like the following information:
1 . NE 23rd Street between Harrington Place NE and the proposed
development site shows a right-of-way width of 20 feet. Our
question is, is this not a more direct route in and out of the
development site? If so, can the 20-foot right-of-way be
expanded to 50 feet to match the existing roadway on NE 23rd
St .?
2. NE 21st Street between the development site and the west end of .
tax lot 134 shows only a 30-foot right-of-way.` Fifty feet is
needed for a complete roadway entrance from Harrington Place.
Please address this problem.
3. All access roads to the development site are to be fully improved
curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting, etc. ) .
Confirm provisions for accesses at 122nd Ave. SE, SE 100th St. , Jefferson Ave.
NE, 21st Ave. NE or NE 23rd St. and show the limits of the access improvements .

TO: Environmental Review Committee
BUILDING/ZONING DEPT,
FROM: Policy Development Department
SUBJECT: Revised Santa/Tomberg P.U.D. Site Plan
In the initial review of this proposed Rezone/Planned Unit Development, the
Environmental Review Committee was advised by several City departments that
additional information would be necessary in the following areas:
1. Water, Water Courses
2. Traffic Impacts
3. Public Services (especially Fire)
4. Utilities
5. Recreation
A revised plan addressing some of these concerns was submitted to the Building and
Zoning Department on April 16, 1984. Based upon review of this plan, the following
observations can be made:
No development should be permitted on the east side of Honey Creek for five
5) years or until the City can provide water, sewer, and public safety services,
whichever occurs first.
12.egarding traffic, approximately 782 Average Daily Trips can be expected to
result from this first phase development. Traffic as such should not be a major
problem. However, the specific access points and range of improvements must
be stipulated.
elated to traffic, the Fire Department has expressed concern about apparent
ingular access to the southwest portion of the site from N.E. 21st Street and
efferson Avenue N.E. The revised site plan submitted indicates an emergency
access extending south from the end of the proposed cul-de-sac to Kirkland
Place N.E. An easement for this access must be secured and properly improved.

SIGNAT RE OF/OrIRECTOR OR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
REVISION 5/1982
The proposed development of this area gives great concern to the Police
Departmert for the following reasons.
1) Roadways now existing cannot handle the large influx of traffic
that this project will generate.
2) Accessibility to the area will greatly hamper the law enforcement
task due to the deep ravine and no motor vehicle crossings from
one group of buildings to the other.
SCENERIO:
Officer A is charged with the responsibility of providing police services to the
R-7 and is in the easterly-most group of condos when he receives a call to
the westerly group. He must exit the area via SE 100th to Union and then to
Sunset to NE 12th to Kirkland Avenue NE to Jefferson and the entrance to the
westerly portion of the project. I feel that this is entirely unrealistic
and places both the officers and citizens in an undue hazardous situation.
If this project becomes a reality, I will recommend that an additional patrol
vehicle be manned and placed in service in the Highlands area. This will
necessitate 42 additional officers (to cover 24 hours) a vehicle and all
equipment.

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
This letter is to try and clarify the situation that presently exists
ref. N.E. 23rd Street access to your PUD project.
If you will recall our original decision made it difficult for you to
neogtiate with the owner of the south one-half of the proposed
N.E. 23rd Street. We now have revised that decision and you will be
able to proceed with your project because it does not hinge on that
acquisition. However, if your negotiations now are unsatisfactory, we
would be willing to pursue condemnation so that the south one-half can be
constructed as originally agreed upon.
Please keep us informed of the status of these negotiations.
Very truly yours,

Re: Santa/Tomberg PUD (Honey Creek Associates), Files R-014-84, PPUD-015-84,

Dear Mr. Easter:
The Environmental Review Committee has considered the access proposal specifically
submitted on November 20, 1984, as to it compliance with the specific conditions imposed
by the Environmental Review Committee in their Declaration of Nonsignificance dated
July 16, 1984. They did find that your proposed emergency access on the present
aligr,ment on N.E. 23 Street did meet the intent of their original decision which
specifically stated that N.E. 23rd Street shall be built to City standards and dedicated to
the :Jity from the projects west property line to Harrington Place N.E. However, they do
wan'.. to point out that Jefferson Avenue N.E. shall be extended northward to connect with
N.E. 23rd Street and shall be built to City standards and dedicated to the City for a
standards street. Your specific plans dated November 20, 1984, show it as a driveway.
That is specifically not acceptable to the Environmental Review Committee. This letter
is to clarify the fact that that roadway shall meet minimum City standards including
curbs, gutters, and a walkway on one side, with appropriate street lighting. In addition,
the pavement should be a maximum of 32 feet. The intent of the ERC was to allow the
Public Works Department final design approval prior to the submission of the final PUD.
Please be aware that this is only a clarification of the original letter and the appeal date
of December 8, 1984, is still valid. Appeals must be submitted to the Land Use Hearing
Examiner under the old policies for any environmental decision issued before October 1,
198,4. The appeals must be in writing and submitted under the specific procedures of
Section 4--3014.
If I can provide any further assistance, I would be happy to meet with either yourself or
the proponents during the next two days.
Sincerely,
UA-

Dea Dick:
I am writing to request a re-evaluation of the Honey Creek
Associates proposed P.U.D. based on a review of the progress
we have made thus far and in light of our current impass.
Your environmental review committee initially requested in
its 'original declaration of non-significance dated 6-18-84
tha we modify our original proposal to provide additional
eme gency access to our parcel as well as the major access
poi t at Jefferson Street. Vie submitted a drawing indicating
emergency access at Kirkland Place which your committee
accepted as adequate. As we evaluated that access point we '
found it to be beyond the scope of our construction abilities
due to a grading problem. Vie then presented four alternative
emergency access points for the committee' s review. Your
res onse to those alternatives has a new declaration of non-
si ificance dated 7-16-84 requiring an additional major
access point at Twenty-third street and to suggest we explore
the' feasability of acquiring the additional right of way
needed to complete the south one half of Twenty-third street
which the city does not own.
e complied by contacting Mr. James Chandler who is the owner
of the parcel to the south of Twenty-third street. At this
time he has no interest in dedicating his portion of Twenty-
third street to the city or selling said portion to us. His
only interest is to sell the entire parcel for an unreasonable
cash only figure with no contingencies. We are financially
unable to meet his demands. At this point I no longer feel
we can consider Twenty-third street as a major access point
to our parcel although emergency access there is still a
possibility. It is possible other alternatives to acquire
the! street may become available at some time but I feel none
are likely in the near future. I believe we are wasting
much precious time by exploring options not available to us
at present.
Your second declaration of non-significance dated 7-16-84
requiring a second major access point is not consistant with
y:ur original declaration requiring one major and one emer-
gency access route. It is in fact substantially different
from both of our original planning efforts and now seriously
impacts the project.
We believe we all agree this P.U. D./Rezone process should
proceed in a timely fashion, and that acquisition of additional
right of way may take 6 months to 6 years or longer.
Consequently I have instructed the Johnson/Braund Design Group
to provide you again with additional emergency access
alternatives as you requested in your original declaration
of nbn significance.
VJe stand ready to meet with your singlely or as a group to
further delineate our position and hopefully arrive at a
workable solution which is good for both the City of Renton
as well as Honey Creek Associates. Please contact me at
your earliest convenience. Your continued effort is deeply
appreciated.

Dear Dick:
I am writing to request a re-evaluation of the Honey Creek
Associates proposed P.U. D. based on a review of the progress
vie have made thus far and in light of our current impass.
Your environmental review committee initially requested in
its original declaration of non-significance dated 6- 18-84
that we modify our original proposal to provide additional
emergency access to our parcel as well as the major access
point at Jefferson Street. submitted a drawing indicating
emergency access at Kirkland Place which your committee
accepted as adequate. As we evaluated that access point we `
found it to be beyond the scope of our construction abilities
due to a grading problem. We then presented four alternative
emergency access points for the committee' s review. Your
response to those alternatives has a new declaration of non-
significance dated 7-16-84 requiring an additional major
access point at Twenty-third street and to suggest we explore
the feasability of acquiring the additional right of way
needed to complete the south one half of Twenty-third street
which the city does not own.
Vie complied by contacting Mr. James Chandler who is the owner
of the parcel to the south of Twenty-third street. At this
time he has no interest in dedicating his portion of Twenty-
third street to the city or selling said portion to us. His
only interest is to sell the entire parcel for an unreasonable
cash only figure with no contingencies. We are financially
unable to meet his demands. At this point I no longer feel
we can consider Twenty-third street as a major access point
to our parcel although emergency access there is still a
possibility. It is possible other alternatives to acquire
the street may become available at some time but I feel none
are likely in the near future. I believe we are wasting
much precious time by exploring options not available to us
at present.
Your second declaration of non-significance dated 7-16-84
requiring a second major access point is not consistant with
your original declaration requiring one major and one emer-
gency access route. It is in fact substantially different
from both of our original planning efforts and now seriously
impacts the project.
Vie believe we all agree this P.U. D./Rezone process should
proceed in a timely fashion, and that acquisition of additional
right of way may take 6 months to 6 years or longer.
Consequently I have instructed the Johnson/Braund Design Group
to provide you again with additional emergency access
alternatives. as you requested in your original declaration
of non significance.
Vie stand ready to meet with your singlely or as a group to
further delineate our position and hopefully arrive at a
workable solution which is good for both the City of Renton
as well as Honey Creek Associates. Please contact me at
your earliest convenience. Your continued effort is deeply
appreciated.
Sincerely //

As part of the traffic analysis we would like the following information:
I . NE 23rd Street between Harrington Place NE and the proposed
development site shows a right-of-way width of 20 feet. Our
question is, is this not a more direct route in and out of the
development site? If so, can the 20-foot right-of-way be
expanded to 50 feet to match the existing roadway on NE 23rd
St.?
2. NE 21st Street between the development site and the west end of
tax lot 134 shows only a 30-foot right-of-way. Fifty feet is
needed for a complete roadway entrance from Harrington Place.
Please address this problem.
3. All access roads to the development site are to be fully improved
curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting, etc. ) .
Confirm provisions for accesses at 122nd Ave. SE, SE 100th St. , Jefferson Ave.
NE, 21st Ave. NE or NE 23rd St. and show the limits of the access improvements .

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
flis letter is to try and clarify the situation that presently exists
ref. N.E. 23rd Street access to your PUD project.
If you will recall our original decision made it difficult for you to
ncogtiate with the owner of the south one-half of the proposed
N. E. 23rd Street. We now have revised that decision and you will be
able to proceed with your project because it does not hinge on that
acquisition. However, if your negotiations now are unsatisfactory, we
would be willing to pursue condemnation so that the south one-half can be
constructed as originally agreed upon.
Please keep us informed of the status of these negotiations.
Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. Easter:
The Environmental Review Committee has considered the access proposal specifically
submitted on November 20, 1984, as to it compliance with the specific conditions imposed
by the Environmental Review Committee in their Declaration of Nonsignificance dated
July 16, 1984. They did find that your proposed emergency access on the present
alignment on N.E. 23 Street did meet the intent of their original decision which
specifically stated that N.E. 23rd Street shall be built to City standards and dedicated to
the City from the projects west property line to Harrington Place N.E. However, they do
want to point out that Jefferson Avenue N.E. shall be extended northward to connect with
N.E. 23rd Street and shall be built to City standards and dedicated to the City for a
standards street. Your specific plans dated November 20, 1984, show it as a driveway.
That is specifically not acceptable to the Environmental Review Committee. This letter
is to clarify the fact that that roadway shall meet minimum City standards including
curbs, gutters, and a walkway on one side, with appropriate street lighting. In addition,
the pavement should be a maximum of 32 feet. The intent of the ERC was to allow the
Pubic Works Department final design approval prior to the submission of the final PUD.
Please be aware that this is only a clarification of the original letter and the appeal date
of December 8, 1984, is still valid. Appeals must be submitted to the Land Use Hearing
Examiner under the old policies for any environmental decision issued before October 1,
1984. The appeals must be in writing and submitted under the specific procedures of
Section 4-3014.
If I can provide any further assistance, I would be happy to meet with either yourself or
the proponents during the next two days.

The type of access control proposed will not meet approval. In order for the revised proposed

It is my recommendation that the Public Works Department review this plan closely with special
attention to future needs of a dedicated city street along Northeast 23rd. Perhaps, environmentally
this is the best solution.

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
The Renton Environmental Review Committee is in receipt of your letter dated
September 25, 1984, for which you are asking us to extend the appeal date of the final
declaration of non-significance published July 16, 1984 for the above referenced
application. In your request you have asked that the extention be granted until December
8, 1984., in order to allow more time for your negotiations for the dedication of N.E. 23rd
Street.
Please be advised that the Committee considered your request at its September 27th
meeting and concurred with the request to extend the appeal date as indicated. We will
therefore hold off scheduling the public hearing until the aforementioned item is resolved.

Dear Roger:
Thank you for your letter of September 21 , 1984.
Since our meeting I have been diligently locating Mr.
Chandler (the owner of the property adjacent to 23rd
street) . I have traced him from Ohio to Fresno, California
where I found him.
We are now in the process of negotiating for dedication of
his half of 23rd street. I believe we will have a final
agreement in not more then 60 days. If you could extend
our final date of appeal to December 8, 1984 it would be
greatly appreciated. I am sure you will understand that
without that street your propasal is not accomplishable.
I appreciate your patience.

RE: Santa/Tomberq PUD/R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84 (ECF-014-84)
Dear Mr. Easter:
The abcve referenced PUD application was brought back on the Environmental Review
Committee's agenda on September 19, 1984. In the course of our review, it was noted
that on both July 20, 1984 and July 27, 1984, requests by letter were made to allow an
e..:tension of the appeal period for the final environmental declaration in order to give the
property owners, Mr. Santa and Mr. Tomberg, a chance to negotiate for better access to
the subject property.
It is our understanding that a verbal agreement was given to extend the appeal period for
the negc;tiations. It has now been over two months since the environmental declaration
was published and posted. In that time, we have not received any corrsepondence on how
better a cess can be provided in lieu of what the Committee conditioned. By way of this
letter then, please be advised that the final appeal date has now been set as Monday,
October 9, 1984.
Mr. Mel Easter

As an additional note, the final declaration of non-significance was issued for the rezone
and PUD applications only. An environmental declaration must also be made for the
annexation proposal. This department is currently routing the environmental checklist
submitted to the Policy Development Department for review and comments. Upon
completion of this review, we will schedule this item on the Committee's agenda and
proceed with ati environmental determination.

Introduction The State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , Chapter 43.21C, RCW, requires
all state and local governmental agencies to consider environmental values both for their
own actions and when licensing private proposals. The Act also requires that an EIS be
prepared for all major actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment.
The purpose of this checklist is to help the agencies involved determine whether or not a
proposal is such a major action.
Please answer the following questions as completely as you can with the information
presently available to you. Where explanations of your answers are required, or where
you believe an explanation would be helpful to government decision makers , include your
explanation in the space provided, or use additional pages if necessary. You should
include references to any reports or studies of which you are aware and which are rele-
vant to the answers you provide. Complete answers to these questions now will help all
agencies involved with your proposal to undertake the required environmental review with-
out unnecessary delay.
The following questions apply to your total proposal , not just to the license for which
you are currently applying or the proposal for which approval is sought. Your answers
should include the impacts which will be caused by your proposal when it is completed ,
even though completion may not occur until sometime in the future. This will allow all
of the agencies which will be involved to complete their environmental review now, with-
out duplicating paperwork in the future.
NOTE: This is a standard form being used by all state and local agencies in the State
of Washington for various types of proposals . Many of the questions may not apply to
your proposal . If a question does not apply, just answer it "no" and continue on to the

Attachment "A"
Background
7. The proposed project is located in the "Highlands" area of Renton one
mile east of Interstate 405. Access to the property is from four (4)
existing residential streets: 122nd Avenue Southeast and Southeast
100th Street on the north side; Jefferson Street and Northeast 21st
Street on the south side.
Over 80% of the 48.5 acre site is covered with heavy stands of virgin
native vegetation including Douglas Fir, Alder, Madrona, Maple, Salal,
Ferns, etc. "Honey Creek" bisects the site and becomes the collector
for two major ravines on the property with grades ranging from 15 to
80%. Because of the complex slopes, development on the site is limited
to approximately 8 acres in the Northeast corner and 6.6 acres in the
southwest corner.
II. Environmental Impacts
1. Earth
b,c,e) This proposal will require paved parking and private drive
surfaces. Construction of these features will result in disruption and
overcovering of the soils as well as slight variations in the existing
topography. Erosion potential will increase temporarily as the
vegetative covering is removed during construction. However, the
resulting disturbance to the topography will be minimal.
2. Air
a,c) The increase in local traffic volume will introduce additional
automotive emissions, and construction will temporarily increase the
volume of suspended particulates. In both cases the increase will be
small. Because of the introduction of buildings, automobiles, and
people, the micro climate within each developed area will be slightly
altered.
3. Water
b) The impervious parking areas and roadway surfaces will reduce
absorption rate and in turn will increase surface water runoff.
4. Flora
a,c) Construction of the proposed condominium development will
eliminate a portion of the existing vegetation. Once built, however,
new species of flora will be introduced on the site. Impacts on existing
vegetation will be minimal with approximately 70% of the site left
undisturbed.
5. Fauna
a,c,d) This proposal will reduce a small amount of the existing wildlife
habitat and may slightly alter migration patterns of certain fauna.
However, a large majority of the native vegetation and "green space"
will be preserved for wildlife habitat.
11. Population
This condominium proposal will add 185 residential units and will alter
the present density and population growth rate in the area. The
project, however, does not represent an -inconsistency in the
comprehensive zoning and development plan for this area.
14. Public Services
a,b,c,d,f) The project will increase tax revenues for all public service
agencies and in turn require attention by those departments. Police,
fire protection, and governmental services will be required for the
health, safety, and welfare of the residents. The proposed project could
attract up to 100 school aged children. It is also likely that the
residents of this development will make use of local recreational
opportunities, although the impact on these facilities should be
negligible since full recreational amenities will be provided on site
including: two pools, two spas, two tennis courts, and two tot lots.

Project Description
The Santa/Tomberg property is located in unincorporated King
County adjacent to 120th P1. S. E. , approximately one mile east of
the I-405 Kennydale Interchange (N. E. 30h Street ) . The hilly
property is bisected by Honey Creek, and is presently unimproved.
The property is bounded on the west and south by the Renton City
Limits. The proposed action includes annexation of the property
to the City of Renton.
A Planned Unit Development (P. U. D. ) consisting of 185
multifamily residential units is proposed for the Santa/Tomberg
Property. Because the site is bisected by the steep Honey Creek
ravine, the P. U. D. would be constructed as two geographically
separate areas, on either side of the ravine. Pedestrian
recreational paths may link the two areas, but no direct
vehicular links are proposed. Each area would have its own
parking, tennis court, tot lot, and swimming pool for use by
residents and their guests only. The northeast area of the site
would have 112 multifamily residential units (80 two story
stacked flat units and 32 townhouse units ) and approximately 175
parking stalls. Vehicular access would be via an extension of
122nd Avenue S. E. , which presently intersects S. E. 95th Way. The
southwest area of the site would have 73 multifamily residential
units (60 two story stacked flat units and 13 townhouse units )
and approximately 118 parking stalls. Vehicular access would be
via extensions of Jefferson Avenue N. E. to the north, and N. E.
21st Street to the east, which would intersect within the site.

Existing Conditions
The attached figures show the str network in northeast
Renton and the vicinity of the Santa/Tomberg site. Freeway
access is via the I-405 Kennydale Interchange (N. E. 30th Street )
and the I-405 North Renton Interchange (N. E. Park Dr. ) . The City
of Renton Arterial Street Map shows the N. E. Park Drive - N.E.
Sunset Blvd. route as a major arterial . The N. E. 30th Street -
Kennewick P1 . N. E. - N. E. 27th Street - Edmonds Avenue N. E. route
is a secondary arterial, as is Union Avenue Northeast. N. E. 12th
Street is a collector arterial. The King County Interim
Transportation Plan: Focus 1990 shows Coal Creek Parkway S. E.
136th Avenue S. E. ) as a major arterial. The S. E. 95th Way -
120th P1. S. E. route and 132nd Avenue S. E. are shown as collector
arterials. There are no designated arterials within the area
bounded by Edmonds Avenue N. E. , the S. E. 27th Street - 120th P1.
S. E. - S. E. 95th Way route, Union Avenue N. E. ( 132nd Avenue
S. E. ) , N. E. Sunset Blvd. , and N. E. 12th Street.The
Santa/Tomberg property is close to the middle of this area, which
measures one mile from Edmonds Avenue N. E. to Union Avenue N. E. ,
and nearly one mile from N.E. Sunset Blvd. to S. E. 95th Way.
The streets in the area generally have two lanes, with the
exception of the four-lane N.E. Park Drive - N. E. Sunset Blvd.
Route. Traffic control signals are located on this route at the
I-405 freeway ramps, Sunset Blvd. N. E. , Edmonds Avenue N.E. ,
Harrington Avenue N. E. , N.E. 10th Street, N. E. 12th Street, Union
Avenue N. E. , and Duvall Avenue N. E.

intersections on the high-volume N. E. Park Dr. - N. E. Sunset
Blvd. route particularly during the peak hours. Traffic
generally flows freely on the other arterials in the area, with
occasional generally brief delays experienced by motorists
turning onto or crossing these arterials from side streets.

Future Conditions
Figure 2 shows projected 1989 average daily traffic volumes
in the vicinity without the Santa/Tomberg P. U. D. These volumes
are based on the 1983 AWDT ' s and projected to 1989 assuming a 3%
annual traffic volume growth rate. This is a moderate background
traffic volume growth rate which is based on the assumption that
traffic volume growth will be roughly in proportion to population
growth in the area. This 3% rate is the annualized growth rate
calculated from the 1978. and 1990 populations for the northeast
Renton planning area, contained in the City of Renton Northeast
Renton Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed Santa/Tomberg P. U. D. is expected to generate
approximately 1480 vehicular trips on an average weekday at full
occupancy. A vehicular trip is defined as "a single or
one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or
destination (exiting or entering ) inside the study site" (Trip
Generation - An Informational Report,Institute of
Transportation Engineers, 'Third Edition, 1983 ) . This (estimate is
based on 185 multifamily units and a trip generation rate of 8
trips per unit. The studies conducted for the ITE report show an
average rate of 7. 9 trips per unit, with a maximum of 10. 0 trips
per unit and a minimum of 6. 2 trips per unit for planned unit
developments. The ITE average rates indicate that approximately
150 trips ( 10% ) would occur during the AM peak hour, with about
half leaving and half entering the Santa/Tomberg site. About 150
trips ( 10% ) would also occur during the PM peak hour, with about
85 entering and about 65 leaving the site. Approximately 900 of
the average weekday trips would be generated in the northeast
area of the site, with the remaining 580 daily trips generated in
the southwest area of the site.
4
Figure 3 shows the estimated distribution of the P. U. D.
site-generated average weekday traffic onto the street network.
About 60% of the traffic generated by the southwest area of the
P. U. D. is expected to use Kirkland Avenue N. E. south to N. E. 12th
Street and beyond. Some traffic will use N. E. 21st Street,
Harrington P1. N. E. , and N. E. 23rd P1. (or N. E. 23rd Street ) as a
short route between the site and the Kennydale Interchange, to
use I-405 to the north. A smaller percentage is expected to use
Harrington Avenue N. E. and N. E. 16th Street as a route to Edmonds
Avenue Northeast.
The primary access to the northeast area of the site will be
on 122nd Avenue S. E. to S. E. 95th Way. A secondary access has
been suggested on S. E. 100th Street, connecting through to 132nd
Avenue N. E. (Union Avenue N. E. ) via several residential streets.
Though this access is not shown on the current Santa/Tomberg
P. U. D. -site plan, it would enhance the accessibility of the
northeast area of the site, and therefore has been included in
this traffic analysis. It is expected that about 40% of the
northeast site area traffic would use this S. E. 100th Street
route to Union Avenue N. E. , continuing on to the Renton Highlands
business areas, or to Renton proper. The 60% of the northeast
site area traffic using 122nd Avenue S. E. is expected to split
nearly evenly to the east and to the west on S. E. 95th Way.
Northbound traffic would continue on to either I-405 or Coal
Creek Parkway.
If access to S. E. 100th Street is not provided for the
northeast site area, then all 900 trips would use 122nd Avenue
Southeast. Of these it is estimated that about 350 would use
S. E. 95th Way to the west, and about 550 would use S. E. 95th Way
to the east.
5
Figure 4 shows projected 1989 AWDT ' s with the Santa/Tomberg
P. U. D. fully occupied. The traffic volumes shown generally are
the sum of the traffic volumes shown on Figures 2 and 3. It is
assumed that the northeast P. U. D. site area would have access to
S. E. 100th Street. The on-site roadways would connect 122nd
Avenue S. E. to S. E. 100th Street. A small amount of the existing
traffic generated by the existing residential areas east of the
site may use this route as a shortcut to Kennydale. The AWDT on
S. E. 100th Street would probably be in the range of 400 - 500 .
If access is not provided to S. E. 100th Street, then the
1989 AWDT on 122nd Avenue S. E. would be approximately 1300.
These projected traffic volumes on 122nd Avenue S. E. are higher
than traffic volumes on most typical residential local access
streets. Rather than serving as simply a residential street,
122nd Avenue S. E. would function as a neighborhood collector by
helping to provide mobility from the intersecting streets to the
S. E. 95th Way arterial . The 122nd Avenue S. E. roadway appears to
be in good physical condition and will provide this function
safely and efficiently. Since S. E. 95th Way is such a low volume
arterial, its intersection with 122nd Avenue S.E. would continue
to function well, with only occasional brief delays to side
street traffic. The installation of stop or yield signs on S. E.
96th P1. east and west of 122nd Avenue S. E. should be considered.
Traffic generated by the P. U. D. would have several impacts
on the N. E. 21st Street - Harrington P1. N. E. - N. E. 23rd P1.
and N. E. 23rd Street ) route. N.E. 21st Street east of
Harrington Pl. N.E. is presently constructed as a half-street,
with a 20 ' wide pavement and curb and gutter only on the south
side. This relatively short street segment will need to be
widened in order to safely accomodate the increased traffic
volumes due to the P. U. D. The increased traffic volumes on N. E.
23rd P1. and N.E. 23rd Street will probably not be very
6
noticeable to residents because the total volumes will still be
relatively low, and well within the typical volume range on
residential streets. Both of these streets have recently been
improved, including new pavement and curb and gutter, so they
will easily accomodate the increased volumes. Increased traffic
volumes on Harrington Pl. N. E. between N. E. 21st Street and N. E.
23rd Street may be more noticeable to residents. This street
segment appears to be in fair to poor physical condition, with
patchy pavement and no curb or gutter. However, the expected
traffic volumes and traffic operations on Harrington Pl. N. E.
will still be acceptable for a residential local access street.
The very short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. north of
Kirkland Avenue N.E. may need some repairs to the existing
pavement. Kirkland Avenue N. E. and N. E. 16th Street appear to be
in reasonably good condition, and will easily accomodate the
increased traffic volumes. These streets function as
neighborhood collectors and will continue to do so effectively.
Virtually no P. U. D. - generated traffic is expected to use
Hillcrest Lane Northeast. This relatively narrow rou e which
meanders through the rest home and its parking area is not really
a shortcut, and its use would require an extra stop. Kirkland
Avenue N. E. would be a much faster and more easily negotiated
route.
The P. U. D. - generated traffic is not expected to have a
significant impact on the intersection of Kirkland Avenue N.E.
and N. E. 12th Street. Left turning and through traffic on
Kirkland Avenue N. E. experienced level of service C during the
1983 PM peak hour. Calculatirns for the 1989 PM peak hour
indicates that this - -ft turning or through traffic would
experience level of service D with or without the P. U. D. -
generated traffic.

Outline format from 1983 City of Renton Building Regulations Title IV, 2710-5)
A. Vicinity Map (located on site plan sheet).
B. (1) Bounding Streets (see site plan and vicinity map).
2) Pedestrian circulation (see site plan, site section, planting concepts,
and private street section).
Five (5) foot wide walkways are located in front of all parking areas to
provide safe and direct access from car to unit. A 3100 foot pedestrian
path through the greenbelt provides a link between developments as
well as a recreational element for all residents.
3) Building Types and Unit Count (see site plan and development
statistics).
4) Off-street Parking (see site plan, private street section, and planting
concepts).
Vehicular circulation provides convenient and direct access to each
unit. Parking stalls are 18 feet long to the curb or wheelstop with
provisions for a 2 foot overhang (20 feet total). Each stall is 9 feet
wide. All drives are 24 feet wide. Parking areas will be paved with
asphalt and planter strips are located every 6 to 9 stalls to break up the
paved surfaces.
5) Open Space (see site plan)
Common open space required: 592,416 S.F. (13.6 Acres)
Common open space provided: 1,572,516 S.F. (36.1 Acres)
Private open space required: 64,500 S.F. (1.5 Acres)
Private open space provided: 198,111 S.F. (4.6 Acres)
Common Open Space" areas are accessible to all project residents and
include: swimming pools, tennis courts, tot lots, and surrounding area;
pedestrian paths, and all undisturbed "green space."
Private Open Space" areas are in addition to parking and storage space
and include private decks and patios along with the space immediately
adjacent to, and contiguous with, the buildings.
C. Landscaping (see site plan and planting concepts).
1) Existing, undisturbed vegetation will be the key landscape element.
Additional planting will be used to soften the paved areas, highlight or
buffer views, screen private areas, enhance building elevations, and to
create a pleasant overall living environment.
D. Building Standards:
1) Height - Both building types are two story elements and will be 25 to 30
feet tall as measured from ground level. However, over 80% of the
units are situated on downhill slopes and will visually appear as one
story elements. (12 to 15 feet high).
2) Bulk - The two story stacked flat units are located in 12 and 18-plex
buildings ranging from 10,980 sq. ft. to 16,470 sq. ft.
The two story townhouse units are located in 4, 5, and 6-plex buildings
ranging from 4300 sq. ft. to 6450 sq. ft.
3) Setbacks - All buildings adjacent to R-1 zoned property are located a
minimum of 100 feet from the property line. The only exception is
building 'Y' which is 80 feet from an R-2 Zone.
E. (1) Program for Development - The project will be developed in a minimum
of two (2) separate phases (northeast phase and southwest phase).
Construction will take place over a period of five (5) years after the
planning and design process is complete.
2) Ownership Pattern - The entire Santa/Tomberg property is under the
legal ownership of the Honey Creek Associates, 5611 - 119th S.E. Suite
2, Bellevue, WA 98006.
3) Dwelling Unit Densities - The unit density across the entire site is 3.8
units per acre. This number is less than the density in an R-1 single
family residential zone. The specific density breakdowns are as
follows:
5 acres of R-2 low density multi-family
12 units/acre) = 60 units
24.8 acres of R-1 single family residential
7200 sq. ft./lot) = 120 units
18.7 acres of G-1 low density general development
35,000 sq. ft./lot) = 5 units
Total No. of units allowed = 185 Units
4) Relationship to Comprehensive Plan (see vicinity map)
The Comprehensive Plan shows the site divided into three land use
categories: R-1 single family, R-2 multi-family, and (G-1) green belt.
The proposed development is consistent with these three land uses.
5) Relationship of Site Elements (see site section, site plan, and vicinity
map).
The steep grades and complex terrain limit development to the
northeast corner and the southwest corner of the site. These high
plateau areas provide opportunity for dramatic siting, spectacular
views, and overall interest and variation within the living environments.
The two developed areas are completely separate with individual access
points and recreation facilities. They are tied together only by a
pedestrian path.
Essentially, all the proposed development will be screened from existing
properties by dense stands of native trees and understory. An 80 to 100
foot buffer is planned between proposed buildings and the property line.

HONEY CREEK PPUD ACCESS
Chronology
Planning and Development Committee
June 30, 1988
March 4, 1985 Original PPUD submittal proposed primary access on Jefferson
Avenue NE, secondary access on NE 21st Street, and a 20-foot
wide, gated emergency access at NE 23rd Street.
Hearing Examiner denied the PPUD based on inaccurate
density calculations.
January 1, 1986 PPUD resubmitted proposing primary access on Jefferson
Avenue NE, secondary access on NE 21st Street, and a 20-foot
wide, gated emergency access at NE 23rd Street.
Hearing Examiner recommended the elimination of the entry
at 21st Street, and required the applicant to bear the cost of
upgrading the access roads.
April 14, 1986 Planning and Development Committee indicated concerns
regarding access to the proposed PPUD. The Committee stated
that, "...full street improvements on a 40-foot public right-of-
way alignment with NE 23rd Street are necessary to provide
necessary access to the development."
The Council required the "...dedication of a full 40-foot wide
right-of-way aligned with NE 23rd Street between Harrington
Avenue NE and the site, with an engineering report and
specifications for full street improvement as required by City
Code."
May 12, 1986 At the public hearing on the 75% annexation petition, Council
confirmed the elimination of the entry at NE 21st Street and
the requirement of a 40-foot wide right-of-way aligned with
NE 23rd Street. If the additional 20 feet of right-of-way on
the south side of NE 23rd Street cannot be acquired, the
Council reaffirmed that the development will not be allowed
to proceed.
September 8, 1986 Honey Creek Associates requested Council assistance in
meeting the NE 23rd Street right-of-way condition. City
Attorney Larry Warren reported that, although the matter had
been discussed in Council Committee, the requirement for
full-width right-of-way had been approved by Council
without clarification of whether the City would aid in the
condemnation procedures, if necessary. Council referred the
matter to the City Attorney for preliminary assistance in the
condemnation proceedings.
October 19, 1987 Honey Creek Associates representative Bob Tomberg
voluntarily agreed to follow the revised PUD timelines,
predicated on the condemnation of NE 23rd Street. City
Attorney Larry Warren advised Council that the condemnation
proceedings would be at the developer's expense.
March 7, 1988 Transportation Committee concurred in the Public Works
Department's recommendation to require a 28-foot street
section face-of-curb to face-of-curb with a 5-foot sidewalk
on the south side on NE 23rd Street. A minimum 20-foot
right-of-way will be required on the south plus additional
footage for slope easements, if deemed necessary. Council
concurred in the Committee's recommendation.
April 4, 1988 City Attorney Larry Warren requested authorization to prepare
an ordinance authorizing the condemnation of NE 23rd Street
right-of-way. The matter was referred to the Ways and
Means Committee.
April 18, 1988 The condemnation ordinance was read before the City Council
and referred back to Ways and Means until the City Attorney
can negotiate a contract with Honey Creek Associates
addressing the developer's responsibility for the condemnation
costs.
June 20, 1988 Honey Creek Associates representative Bob Tomberg requested
a change in the Honey Creek PPUD to provide emergency
access along NE 23rd Street instead of full access due to a
pending lawsuit by a resident opposing the acquisition of the
roadway property. Council referred the matter to the Planning
and Development Committee.

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT
TO: Renton City Council
FROM: Planning and Development Committee
RE: Honey Creek PUD
The committee met twice on the Honey Creek PUD, with the last
meeting being held on December 7 , 1989 . The committee was to meet
on the access problems concerning the project, particularly the
inability to expand N.E . 23rd to a full city street. The committee
was to assess alternative street plans . The committee was presented
with the following street plan which the developer has agreed to:
Emergency Access .
The city owns twenty feet of right-of-way on the extension of N.E .
23rd. The fire department has indicated that that is sufficient
right-of-way to build emergency access . There are two reasons why
twenty feet of paved surface are not necessary. First, the twenty
feet of paved surface normally anticipates two-way traffic . There
will be one-way traffic only. Second, there will be no structures
adjacent to the twenty foot emergency access so there will be no
need for the fire department to stop its vehicle and set it up to
fight fires , an additional reason why twenty foot access is normally
desirable . For these reasons, there is more than adequate right-of-
way available with twenty feet, even if the developer is required to
build retaining walls .
Street Improvements :
1 . The developer will improve the road on its project to city
standards from the main entrance northward and just beyond the
hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into parking
lots . It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated to the
city.
2 . The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson
Avenue N.E . from subject site to Harrington Avenue N.E . , as
follows :
a. Provide new street construction to city standards which
will include but not be limited to curbs , gutters ,
sidewalks and street lighting.
b. Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and
telephone pole on this short segment of Jefferson Avenue
N.E . and provide underground service to the duplex and
four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E .
which would be impacted by the removal of the overhead
power and telephone conductors .

Planning and Develor_.._nt Committee Report
Honey Creek PUD
3 . The developer will install the following school safety
improvements :
a . A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing
Harrington Avenue N.E . on the west side of Jefferson
Avenue N.E . with appropriate signing should be required.
b . Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk
and street lighting on Harrington Avenue N.E . , south side,
from Jefferson Avenue N.E . to the Hillcrest Elementary
School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would
also require appropriate storm drainage.
The developer has indicated that it wishes to replace several of the
buildings on the project and the staff has indicated that it
believes that this is a major modification to the PUD. The Planning
and Development Committee believes that the project has gone through
so many changes and the council has received so much information
that a full compilation of what has occurred needs to be undertaken.
Therefore, the Planning and Development Committee of the City
Council recommends as follows :
1 . A staff report shall be prepared setting forth the factual
background of this PPUD and establishing findings of fact,
conclusions, and a proposed decision. The format used shall be
essentially that used by the hearing examiner .
2 . The staff ' s proposal will be tendered to the city council and
the council will establish a public hearing date on the
modifications to the PUD and the proposed changes to the
traffic plan .
3 . The staff report will be presented to the hearing examiner at
the same time it is presented to the city council . The hearing
examiner shall have two weeks to review the report for
completeness and accuracy and make recommendations to the city
council, if any, for additions, corrections , or deletions to
the proposed staff report .

Re: Mitch Murray Request for Reopening of Appeal Time
Dear Mike:
The city council has asked me to respond to your letter asking that the appeal time be
reopened on the council's decision to allow forty feet of right-of-way to serve for N.E. 23rd
Street. The city believes that the appeal time need not be reopened as there has been no
final council action to this date.
The appeal would be from a condition of approval of a preliminary planned unit
development.
Our i ity code requires that the preliminary planned unit development be
approved by ordinance, similar to a rezone. There is an appeal time from that type of a
decision. The appeal is to superior court. There is no appeal right to any city body from a
city council condition on a preliminary planned unit development. The only recourse is to
King County Superior Court. The city code details the applicable time limit for appeal.
The time for appeal would begin to run upon final adoption of the ordinance by the Renton
City Council.
I hope this adequately answers your inquiry.
Ver ruly yours,
Lawrence . Warren

RE: PPUI? 015-84 Honey Creek Associates
Dear Mr. Mayor and Council Members:
I have before me a letter written by Michael Ilanis on behalf of Mitch Murray. In that
letter there is a request that the appeal time be reopened. Apparently Mr. Murray or Mr.
Ilanis believes that the council decision concerning the road width can be appealed to the
council once again. The City Council's decision is not appealable to the council itself, but
rather must be appealed to King County Superior Court. The same time limits for appeal to
King County Superior Court exist for the Preliminary Planned Unit Development
Ordinance, and I do not see that any additional appeal time would be necessary.
I also have had an opportunity to review the rather extensive city files, while preparing the
Ordinance on the Honey Creek Associates PPUD. The language in the file concerning prior
City Council action establishing the 40 foot right-of-way was consistent with the decision
made by the City Council just recently in handling Mr. Murray's request. It would not
appear to me that anything has changed. I also wonder why it has taken so long to request
the council to take this further step to reopen the appeal time. Mr. Murray originally made
that request to the council members and no action was taken on that request. If the
council feels that the decision deviates markedly from the prior council decision to Mr.
Murray's surprise and detriment, then it would be fair to reopen the appeal time. If this
decision is consistent with the council's previous actions, then it would not be appropriate to
open the appeal time. However, as previously explained, the appeal is not to the council but
to the superior court, and it can be made as part of a _challenge to the council's Ordinance
on the Preliminary Planned Unit Development.

RE: PPUD - 015 - 84 Honey Creek Associates
Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of the Council :
On behalf of Mitch Murray , this office previously requested
clarification regarding access on N.E. 23rd Street to the Honey
Creek Associates ' planned unit development. We have been advised
that the Council ' s decision is that a 40 foot right-of-way is
sufficient. We did not get an answer to our specific question
whether a 40 foot right-of-way is consistent with the Council ' s
decisional language requiring "full street improvement as
required by City Code. " As you are aware, it is our position
that it is not possible to meet the Council ' s requirement in 40
feet, the City' s ordinances only allowing 40 foot rights-of-way
for one-way hillside roads .
Mr . Murray had a legitimate expectation that the road to be
constructed behind his home to serve this PPUD would be to City
standards - one that would be of sufficient capacity and design
to serve the needs of this new development without adverse
impacts to his neighborhood. Had he known that something other
than a city street meeting Renton' s ordinances was contemplated,
he would have appealed that issue . The Council ' s belated
decision that something less than the specific language of its
decision would be allowed has deprived Mr . Murray of that appeal
opportunity.
This letter is to request that the appeal period be re-opened for
the limited purpose of determining the right-of-way and road
improvement conditions for N . E . 23rd Street . Mr . Murray has
important information to present to the Council on the impacts to
The Honorable Mayor Earl Clymer
City Council Members April 5 , 1988

his neighborhood of a substandard street. We note that at its
meeting of March 21 , 1988 , (we did not receive the Minutes until
March 28) the Council refused to pass an ordinance approving the
Honey Creek PPUD pending receipt of additional information
regarding calculation of densities . This same type of review
within the context of a public hearing would be particularly
important to the issues Mr. Murray has raised with regard to N.E.
23rd.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
Very truly yours ,

Hanninen, Leibman, Court, Renton; Kathy Leibman, 1022 S. 22nd Court, Renton; and Jeff
Lukins - Victoria Hills Lukins, 1113 S. 23rd Street, Renton, President of Victoria Hills Homeowners'
Phase II FPUD-042-85 Association, addressed the Council regarding the Victoria Hills Phase II Final
Planned Unit Development. Mr. Post referenced letter and videotape
submitted as documentation of mudslides in December, January and March
indicating that property damage had been caused from storm water erosion
from the hillside behind residences. Residents questioned why the project
has not been completed within two year time period established by code;
questioned when final plans would be submitted for the project; and asked
how the City plans to respond to apparent violations of City ordinances and
the Environmental Impact Statement by the developer. Also reported were
failure of the developer to contact residents to discuss damage from
mudslides; failure of the developer to monitor the site on an on-going basis
for erosion and potential mudslides; necessity for residents to sandbag slope
during heavy storm; and necessity for residents to acquire additional
insurance. Mayor and Council members were asked to force the developer to
complete the project in a timely manner, and questioned when storm drainage
system on Puget Drive and Benson would be repaired.
Public Works Director Richard Houghton explained his understanding that
one year remains before the FPUD expires; advised that the developer has
submitted third set of plans for approval, noting need for resubmission of
grading plans; and reported that staff is ready to approve sanitary sewer
plans, which are required before additional buildings can be started. He
assured that City inspectors have been monitoring the site and have
recommended remedial repairs on the sloped areas to protect property owners
from damage.
Councilwoman Mathews requested a staff report which addresses construction
timetables, permit expiration dates, and timing for clean-up of properties.

FOR TEN MINUTES. CARRIED. Time: 9:50 p.m. Council reconvened at
10:02 p.m.; roll was called; all members were present.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Helen Shook, 1405 N. 24th Street, Renton, requested response to her request
continued at Council meeting of 2/22/88, that North 24th Street be widened to its
Citizen Comment: Shook dedicated width by requiring removal of fences and rockeries which encroach
N. 24th Street into right-of-way. She felt that a telephone call from staff member on
Encroachments 3/17/88 denying request was unacceptable response, and referenced City
pamphlet mailed with water bill in 1987 which stated that fences and hedges
cannot be constructed on City right-of-way. MOVED BY STREDICKE,
SECONDED BY TRIMM, COUNCIL REFER THIS MATTER TO
TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE FOR REPORT. CARRIED. Recalling
that Mrs. Shook was out of town when meeting was held with residents on
North 24th Street, Public Works Director Houghton advised that concerns of
the neighbors are still under review by staff. He noted that Mrs. Shook was
required by the City to widen the right-of-way when she developed her
parcel. Mrs. Shook clarified that she had widened the street on her own, not
in response to City requirement.

April 4. 1988 Renton City Council Minutes Page 107
Planning and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Mathews presented a report
Development Committee regarding the Ray Brown request for deferral of improvements for short plat,
Policy: Bonds and File No. Sh. P1. 002-86. The Planning and Development Committee met
Deferrals (Ray Brown, twice on this topic. City ordinance permits deferral of certain on and off-
Sh. P1. 002-86) site improvements for single family short plats. The subject short plat is
multifamily (R-2), located on Monroe Avenue NE. However, because of
topography and distance to certain utilities, circumstances are unique and the
Committee found that it would constitute a hardship for the owner to install
the improvements 400 feet beyond the subject property to connect to the
storm sewer or to bond for those improvements at this time. There are no
current development plans for this property.
The Committee recommended that because of the unique circumstances, the
subject short plat be permitted a deferral of improvements as outlined in City
Code Section 9-1108.21.H for R-1 property. In all other aspects, the
property shall comply to the underlying R-2 zoning. Because of the unique
circumstances, this decision should not be considered precedential for any
other multifamily parcels. MOVED BY MATHEWS, SECONDED BY REED,

MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 22, 1988
TO: Nancy Mathews, Councilwoman
FROM: Carrie Trimnell, Assistant Planner
SUBJECT: Honey Creek Annexation and Rezone
King County Park Holdings
At the direction of Larry Springer, I have identified the area encompassed by King
County's proposed May Creek Park, the properties which are currently owned by the
King County Parks Department, and the existing Renton and King County zoning
designations applicable to these properties (please refer to the attached map).
King County has numerous land holdings in the vicinity of the Honey Creek Annexation
and Rezone. In King County, these properties are zoned SE - Suburban Estate, which
requires a minimum lot size of 35,000 square feet. The purpose of this zone is to
provide areas for single-family dwellings and related uses at rural densities. The County
owns properties in the City of Renton which are zoned primarily G-1 General Use.
This zone is equivalent to the County's SE zone in both the minimum lot size and the
permitted uses. The County also owns properties in Renton zoned R-1 Single-Family
Residential. In addition, they intend to acquire a parcel currently zoned R-4 High
Density Multi-Family. This property is involved in a City-initiated rezone from R-4 to
staff's recommended G-1.
King County does not have a Public Use zone similar to Renton's P-1 Public Use zone.
In summary, the imposition of G-1 zoning on the Phase II parcel of the Honey Creek
Annexation and Rezone is in keeping with both the City and the County's zoning of the
properties held by the County for the proposed May Creek Park.
I hope this information will be of assistance to you. If you have any questions, or if I
can be of additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at x2552.

COUNCIL RECESS FOR FIVE MINUTES. CARRIED. Time: 9:10 p.m.
Council reconvened at 9:20 p.m.; roll was called; all members were present.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Hal Brandt, 12727 SE 63rd Street, Bellevue, requested that the public hearing
continued) on LID 334 be postponed to later date to provide additional time for him to
LID: 334, NE 44th Street review the matter and prepare a response. Mayor Clymer advised that
and Lake Washington because LID participants had already left the meeting, he recommended
Boulevard against changing the continued hearing date of 3/21/88.
Citizen Comment: Randy Korman, 2216 Harrington Place NE, Renton, owner of the 280-foot
Korman - Honey Creek by 20-foot strip of land required to develop the NE 23rd Street access to
PPUD 015-84 Honey creek PPUD, asked Council to re-evaluate the matter of Devil's Elbow
Road and and refer the subject back to Transportation Committee. Referring
to a vicinity map, Mr. Korman pointed out difficulties in developing access
via NE 23rd Street due to hilly terrain and steep grade, noting that costly
excavation, construction of bulkheads, and property acquisition may increase
cost of road to $200,000, the same amount required to stabilize Devil's Elbow
Road. He urged that instead of improving NE 23rd Street as access to the
Honey Creek PPUD, the developer instead be required to contribute required
funds to upgrade the western half of Devil's Elbow Road.
Citizen Comment: Velte - a Chuck Velte, 12117 SE 96th Place, Renton, advised that 32 families in
Honey Creek j Paradise Estates as well as 50 other families located northeast of Devil's
PPUD-015-84 Elbow Road have suffered negative economic, environmental and safety
impacts as a result of closure of Devil's Elbow Road by the City. He
reported that the road has been in existence since 1894; follows the same
centerline as originally established; and is designated as Federal Collector
Arterial #1334 which makes the roadway eligible for Urban Arterial Funds.
Mr. Velte blamed closure of the road for increasing response time for
emergency vehicles as well as causing inconvenience and increased travel time
for residents in reaching schools, shopping areas, bus stops and freeways. In
addition, he stated that the road closure has had damaging effects on property
values and has not curbed illegal dumping along the route.

SURVEY OF CITIZENS WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS. MOVED BY
KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL AMEND THE
MOTION TO ADD AND/OR A SERIES OF PUBLIC HEARINGS OR
PUBLIC MEETINGS FOR INFORMATION OF CITY OF RENTON
RESIDENTS. AMENDMENT CARRIED. MOTION AS AMENDED
CARRIED. It was clarified that public meetings will not necessarily be
confined to City Hall, and the City will do whatever is necessary to provide
information to residents to enable them to make an informed decision about
the annexation proposal.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Joan Walker, 1433 Monterey Avenue NE, Renton, favored the annexation
Citizen Comment: Walker process recently used by Kirkland when it doubled its land area and
Fairwood Annexation population in approving Washington's largest annexation in 20 years. She
North Soos Creek) suggested dividing up large potential annexation areas, selecting
representatives from within adjacent City areas to serve on advisory
committees, developing an annexation policy, executing interlocal agreement
with King County, and considering U.S. Census Enumeration Districts as a
guide for setting City boundaries. Councilwoman Mathews clarified that the
survey is to assess attitudes of people in proposed annexing areas to establish
a maximum boundary to study; and after study and receipt of input from
department heads and the community, actual boundaries would be established.
Citizen Comment: Violet Anderson (address above) questioned whether large residential areas
Anderson - Fairwood and rural areas will be surveyed separately. Mr. Parness emphasized that the
Annexation (North Soos survey will be designed to determine results from each separate geographical
Creek)area, and results from a very general and brief survey will not be used by
City staff to form annexation boundaries, but rather to determine level of
interest. Upon inquiry, he advised that survey questions will be neutral and
phrased in a manner to identify areas of resistance or support.
Citizen Comment: Hellene Tom Hellene, 18233 141st Avenue SE, Renton, explained that the potential
Fairwood Annexation annexation area is being expanded to determine appropriate service areas and
North Soos Creek) impose an element of control. He agreed that public hearings or meetings
should be held to educate residents, and noted that meetings will be held with
Lake Desire residents this week.
Citizen Comment: Vaupel Versie Vaupel, P.O. Box 755, Renton, indicated disappointment that only
Fairwood Annexation public meetings would be held with residents, and questioned why citizens of
North Soos Creek) Renton are paying for the survey. It was clarified that all options are
available--public meetings, public hearings and surveys--and by state law, a
public hearing must be held by the City Council prior to accepting an
exation.
Advancement Requested Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton, requested advancement to Old
Business, Transportation Committee Report, regarding Honey Creek PUD.
MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY TRIMM, COUNCIL SUSPEND THE
REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS AND ADVANCE TO OLD BUSINESS.

PUD: Preliminary_ Honey street section face-of-curb to face-of-curb with a five-foot sidewalk placed
Creek. PPUD 015-84 on the south side of NE 23rd Street for the Honey Creek Preliminary PUD.
A minimum 20 feet of right-of-way will be required on the south plus
additional footage for slope easements, if determined necessary.
Displaying a map of the Honey Creek PUD, Mr. Murray described proposed
access to the site via Jefferson to Harrington, both 60 feet wide roadways,
and via 23rd Street, which is proposed to be widened from 20 to 40 or 60
feet. He requested that the matter of site access via Devil's Elbow Road
instead of 23rd Street be referred back to the Transportation Committee for
further review, and cited the City's 1987 geotechnical study which estimated
that the roadway could be stabilized for a cost of $92,000, and reopened for
traffic access to the east and access to the sewer pump station serving the
Highlands. Referencing recent Cedar River dredging project, Mr. Murray
suggested that gravel removed from that site could be transferred to Devil's
Elbow, thereby saving the City approximately $30,000 in cost of gravel to

stabilize the road. He also suggested that instead of improving NE 23rd
Street, which he estimated to cost $200,000, the developer contribute funds
towards restoring Devil's Elbow Road.

Mike Wensman, 10900 NE 8th Street, Bellevue, owner and developer of Lot
3, questioned increase of proposed LID assessment from $250,000 in
August, 1987, to current assessment of $355,000. Mr. Houghton attributed
the increase to addition of $400,000 to the total LID estimate to cover
engineering, administrative, interim financing and bonding costs.
Norman McCue, P.O. Box 622, Kirkland, indicated concern with increased
assessment for Parcel #4 from $81,266 to $181,996 since October, 1986.
Noting that a sewer trunk line terminates at the property line, he questioned
inclusion of $48,441 for sewer connector as well as assessment for traffic
signal at N. 44th Street on-ramp.
Roger Urbaniak, 4112 78th SE, Mercer Island, representing owners of Parcels
11, #12, and #13, indicated that properties were purchased by three
families 15 years ago for retirement purposes, and rezone of the sites is
currently being sought. He questioned whether the LID includes development
of Lincoln Avenue for the purpose of diverting storm drainage, and reported
that he was not contacted to sign the LID petition. It was clarified that
notices were sent to all LID participants 30 days prior to the date of public
hearing.
Michael Dietch, 4126 187th SE, Issaquah, representing Parcel #2, questioned
increased assessment from $8,750 to $39,516. Mr. Houghton reported that
because the parcel was developed and all off-site improvements were
installed, including street light, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks, no front
footage charges were assessed. However, the property owner is being
required to participate in cost of storm drainage facilities and traffic signal at
the on-ramp for the interchange. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED
BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL CONTINUE PUBLIC HEARING FOR TWO
WEEKS TO MARCH 21, 1988. CARRIED. It was noted that the two week
continuation would give participants the opportunity to meet with Public
Works Department staff to discuss concerns.

RE: N. E. 23RD AND HONEY CREEK PUD
FEB. 8, 1988
DEAR TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE MEMBERS:
I AM WRITING IN RESPONSE TO MR. WARRENS LETTER TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATED JANUARY 27, 1988 WHICH HAS BEEN REFERED TO YOUR COMMITTEE FROM THE
COUNCIL. I WILL USE THE SAME NUMERICAL ORDER USED IN MR. WARREN' S LETTER
TO AVOID ANY CONFUSION.
1 . THERE HAS BEEN A 20 FOOT RIGHT OF WAY ESTABLISHED FOR THE NORTH ONE-
HALF OF THE ROAD. THIS RIGHT OF WAY HAS BEEN IN EXISTANCE FOR MANY YEARS.
IT IS CLEAR THAT THE ORIGINAL INTENT WAS TO TAKE TWENTY FEET FROM THE
NORTH PROPERTY OWNERS AND THE SOUTH PROPERTY OWNERS TO PROVIDE FOR THE
STREET. IF A LARGER ROAD IS DEEMED NECESSARY THEN DON' T YOU HAVE TO GO
BACK AND ACQUIRE TEN MORE FEET FROM THE NORTH PROPERY OWNERS AS WELL AS
THIRTY FEET FROM THE SOUTH?
2. THE CONTINUATION OF NE 23rd WEST OF 'THE PROPOSED SITE IS A FOURTY FOOT
RIGHT OF WAY. IT CERTAINLY MAKES LITTLE SENSE TO HAVE A SIXTY FOOT ROAD
FOR ONE BLOCK ONLY TO HAVE IT FUNNEL BACK DOWN TO FOURTY FEET AFTER
SUCH A SHORT DISTANCE. MR HOUGHTON IS ON RECORD INDICATING A FOURTY FOOT
RIGHT OF WAY WOULD BE ADEQUATE TO BUILD THE NECESSARY TRAVEL LANES AND
ASSOCIATED STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

Audience comment was invited. Phillip Sheridan, 416 Shattuck Avenue
South, Renton, questioned the date of rezone of his property to P-1, public
use. Mr. Springer estimated that the P-1 classification had existed on the site
for at least 20 years. Mr. Sheridan noted that although homes have been
converted to office use, structures have retained residential appearance, and
he requested that his property be rezoned to R-1.
Carl Nordstrom, 409 Morris Avenue South, Renton, questioned whether his
property is included in the rezone area, noting receipt of notification from
the City regarding the public hearing. Mr. Springer confirmed that Mr.
Nordstrom's property is not included in the rezone area.
Discussion was held by Council members and staff regarding creation of non-
conforming uses by rezoning the area to either B-1 or R-i due to mix of
business and residential uses and transitional nature of the neighborhood.
Concerns were also expressed regarding potential increase in property tax
assessment for single family homes if zoning were changed to B-1, business.
It was noted that if more than half of an existing residence in a B-1 zone
were to be accidentally destroyed, it could not be rebuilt as a non-
conforming single family home. Council members suggested that properties
be zoned in accordance with existing uses. Upon inquiry regarding future
rezones in this transitional area, Mr. Springer felt that the Hearing Examiner
would be influenced by Council's action on the subject rezones; and he was
of the opinion that rezoning the properties in compliance with existing use,
either residential (R-1) or business (B-1), would not set a detrimental
precedent. Moved by Stredicke, seconded by Hughes, Council close the
public hearing. Motion failed. MOVED BY KEOLKER, SECONDED BY

TO: City Council Members
FROM : Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney
RE: N.E . 23rd and Honey Creek PUD
Dear Members of the Council :
Several weeks ago the Council received a letter from Mike Hanis ,
representing Mitch Murray, concerning the City' s plans to widen
N. E . 23rd , at the expense of Honey Creek Associates to satisfy the
access requirements imposed by the Council on the development of
the Honey Creek PUD. The Council referred that letter to the
Administration.
Mr . Houghton wrote the Council and indicated that the plan to
obtain a forty foot right-of-way would be adequate to build the
necessary travel lanes and associated street improvements. On the
other hand , Mr . Murray argues that Table I of Ordinance Section 9-
1108 requires a wider right-of-way. He also states that the
Council probably was told that forty feet of right-of-way was what
was required . But, he notes, the Council as part of its PUD
approval required that the full City street improvement be
installed.
Mr . Murray also argues that the City' s study of the Devil ' s Elbow
road shows that the expense of bringing that road up to adequate
condition would be no more than, and perhaps less than, the cost
of improving N.E. 23rd to the required full street standards .
There are clearly some ambiguities concerning the Council ' s
decision and the City requirements. These can be stated as the
following :
1 . Did the City Council wish more than a forty foot right-of-way
to be put in?
2. Since the improved street width of N. E. 23rd west of the
proposed widening is on forty feet of right-of-way, did the
City Council wish the developer to do more in its section of
the roadway than what exists in the continuation of that
roadway?
3 . Is the City Council interested in having the estimated cost
of the right-of-way and construction costs spent on Devil ' s
City Council Membe
January 27 , 1988
Page 2
Elbow road rather than N.E. 23rd . If so , is the Council
prepared to change its statement in the Honey Creek
Annexation that the Devil ' s Elbow road would not be reopened?
4. If the Council is interested in expending monies on Devil ' s
Elbow road , does it wish updated costs for stabilizing the
roadway and expanding the roadway to City standards? If the
proposed roadway on N.E. 23rd is not up to City standards ,
then Devil ' s Elbow road surely is not up to City standards
and would have to be substantially expanded .
If the Council determines that a forty foot roadway was
acceptable; then Mr . Murray has asked that the Council reopen the
appeal time.
As a passing comment, I would like to note that there is a
difference between the right-of-way necessary to install street
improvements and the right-of-way necessary to meet right-of-way
requirements under Table I of Code Section 9-1108 .
If the Council cannot quickly decide this issue , or if further
input is necessary, then perhaps the issue could be re-examined by
the Planning and Development Committee. If so , it would be
appropriate for the City Council to tell the staff exactly what
information would assist it in arriving at its decision. I have
tried to set forth above some of the information that might be of
assistance.

TO: Renton City Council Members
FROM : Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney
RE: Honey Creek Associates and N. E. 23rd
Dear Council Members:
By recent City Council action, the Honey Creek annexation was
expanded, at the demand of the King County Boundary Review Board
and then the necessary legislation adopted. That action led to
the adoption of the necessary rezone ordinances for the Honey
Creek Associates property , thereby giving life to the Honey Creek
PUD.
You may recall that the Council authorized me to begin
preliminary negotiations to acquire the necessary half street to
fully develop N. E. 23rd. Development of N.E. 23rd was one of the
conditions of the approval of the Honey Creek PUD.
Does the Council now wish me to again pursue the acquisition of
that property? It appears likely that a condemnation action will
have to be filed. It has been the City' s position to this point
that Honey Creek Associates will pay my fees, cost of any staff
time, and any award that results from the condemnation action.
Before beginning to aggressively pursue this condemnation, I wish
Council authorization for my actions. I believe it should be
clear , from the record, that the City intends to use its power of
eminent domain to condemn this property before I take any
affirmative steps to start a condemnation lawsuit. Of course, it
will be necessary for the City to adopt an ordinance authorizing
the condemnation, before I have the legal authority to proceed.
I would be happy to prepare that ordinance if the Council so
desires .
I await your further direction.

Re: Honey Creek PPUD
Dear Madam Mayor and Members of the Council :
This office represents Mitch Murray and others regarding impacts
to their neighborhood of the proposed Honey Creek PPUD. One of
the specific concerns he has, as you are aware, is with regard to
the access road that is to be installed along NE 23rd Street.
The records indicate that a portion of Randy Corman' s property
is to be condemned to provide a total right-of-way of forty feet
for the improvements to NE 23rd Street. This would result in a
forty foot right-of-way for NE 23rd Street from Edmonds Avenue NE
to the PPUD development site. Mr. Murray' s concern is that forty
feet is a substandard right-of-way per Renton Code, and that this
will result in a substandard road carrying traffic from the Honey
Creek development through his neighborhood to Edmonds Avenue NE.
Mr. Murray would prefer that NE 23rd Street not be used at all as
access to this development. He feels that the public would be
better served if the money to be spent on condemning Mr .
Corman ' s property and on improving NE 23rd Street was used to
improve the Devil ' s Elbow roadway. The Devil ' s Elbow roadway
could then be used for access to the development instead of NE
23rd Street, and it could also be used to provide the much needed
east/west access across Honey Creek Valley. However, if NE 23rd
Street will be used, it certainly should be improved to meet or
exceed minimum City Code requirements from the PPUD site to
Edmonds Avenue NE.
In reviewing the records on this matter, there is some ambiguity
with regard to the City Council ' s conditions for approval of the
Honey Creek PPUD. In the minutes of April 14, 1986 , the PPUD was
approved subject to the following:
December 2 , 1987
Mayor Shinpoch & Renton City Council
Page Two
Dedication of a full 40-foot wide
right-of-way aligned with NE 23rd
Street between Harrington Avenue
N . E . and the site , with an
engineering report and
specifications for full-street
improvement as required by City
Code;" (hilighting added)
To get a total of forty feet of right-of-way , it is only
necessary to dedicate twenty feet (not forty feet) , since there
already exists a twenty foot dedication. However, it is clear
that the administration interprets this to require a total right-
of-way of forty feet, which would require a dedication of only
twenty feet, the amount the City apparently intends to condemn on
behalf of the developer.
A bigger problem is with regard to the condition that the
improvement be for a "full-street improvement as required by City
rCode" . It is not possible to fit the full-street required by
the City Code within forty feet . Section 9-1108 7 . H .
establishes minimum widths for road improvements in subdivisions.
It requires a sixty foot minimum right-of-way for neighborhood
collectors . Neighborhood collectors are residential access
streets that are longer than 800 feet. If a street is shorter
than 800 feet , a fifty foot minimum right-of-way width is
allowed. A forty foot minimum width of right-of-way is allowed
only for one-way traffic in hillside areas, which is not the case
here. NE 23rd Street will be over 1260 feet long. Section 4-
2709 1 . C . states that design requirements for planned unit
developments shall be the same as requirements of the
Subdivision Ordinance.
The Minimum Standards for road improvements also require five
foot sidewalks and four foot planting strips on each side of the
street. The minimum improved street width allowed for any use is
thirty-two feet (residential access street less than 800 feet
long with a fifty foot right-of-way) .The improved street
width, plus the sidewalks, plus the planting strips , plus any
bulkheads and/or guard rails, all must fit within the right-of-
way.
It is obvious that forty feet (not twenty feet) of additional
right-of-way will need to be condemned and dedicated between
Harrington Avenue NE and the site, or the Council ' s direction
that NE 23rd Street be improved to specifications for full-street
improvements as required by the City Code will not be
December 2, 1987

accomplished. Also, twenty feet of additional right-of-way will
need to be obtained along NE 23rd Street between Edmonds Avenue
NE and Harrington Avenue N.E. in order to provide sixty feet of
right-of-way. By this letter we are requesting clarification
of the city street improvement requirements for NE 23rd Street.
For the record, my clients wish to make it clear that they
oppose having a substandard roadway through their neighborhood
which would be handling the volume of traffic to which this one
will be subject. It will be through an area of young families
with many children. At a minimum, that street has to have
sidewalks on both sides for the children to walk on, and planting
strips to provide some clearance between the sidewalks and
roadway surface.
Renton is now contemplating condemnation of an additional twenty
feet of right-of-way, as opposed to the direction that forty feet
would be dedicated. As mentioned above , there is already a
twenty foot right-of-way there which, of course, does not require
dedication. Prior to commencing that condemnation, this specific
question should be resolved, and its answer will have a great
impact on the neighborhood' s response to this PPUD.
Due to the increasing public concern about this project , it is
requested that this letter be placed upon the agenda of the next
City Council meeting. Thank you for your assistance.
Very truly yours,
HANIS & OLSO

the roadway.
Bellevue The City of Bellevue just completed a very lengthy citizen-council review of
the structure of their government. They have concluded that the city
manager system works very well for the city; however, they are considering
electing a mayor to serve a four-year term instead of appointing a member of
council to serve as mayor for a two-year period.
Appreciation to Council Mayor Shinpoch indicated that it has been a profound honor to serve with
City Council members, including Randall Rockhill, over the past eight years.
She thanked Council for their dedication and individuality, and discussed
numerous accomplishments which have been achieved.

FROM: Richard C. Houghton, Public Workd Director
SUBJECT: N.E. 23rd St. from Harrington Ave N.E.
to Honey Creek Perk i P.U.D.
The proposed roadway to serve Honey Creek Peig4e-ir P.U.D. has a right-of-way need
of 40 feet. The improved cross section will be 28 feet face of curb to face
curb vith a sidewalk placed next to the curb on the south side. This will
provice two 14 foot lanes, curb and gutter, street lights, utilities, as needed
and sidewalks. The proposed development generates about 1220 trips per day
which, even assuming everyone uses the N.E. 23rd street would never get near
the capacity of the roadway.
In adcition to the 20 feet of ri -of-way a slope easement may be necessary.
We do not have survey in ormation available to us to make this determation at
this time.

And To: Renton City Council
Re: Honey Creek PPUD
Dear Madam Mayor and Members of the Council:
This office represents Mitch Murray and others regarding impacts
to their neighborhood of the proposed Honey Creek PPUD. One of
the specific concerns he has , as you are aware, is with regard to
the access road that is to be installed along NE 23rd Street.
The records indicate that a portion of Randy Corman' s property
is to be condemned to provide a total right-of-way of forty feet
for the improvements to NE 23rd Street. This would result in a
forty foot right-of-way for NE 23rd Street from Edmonds Avenue NE
to the PPUD development site. Mr. Murray' s concern is that forty
feet is a substandard right-of-way per Renton Code, and that this
will result in a substandard road carrying traffic from the Honey
Creek development through his neighborhood to Edmonds Avenue NE.
Mr. Murray would prefer that NE 23rd Street not be used at all as
access to this development. He feels that the public would be
better served if the money to be spent on condemning Mr .
Corman ' s property and on improving NE 23rd Street was used to
improve the Devil ' s Elbow roadway. The Devil ' s Elbow roadway
could then be used for access to the development instead of NE
23rd Street, and it could also be used to provide the much needed
east/west access across Honey Creek Valley. However, if NE 23rd
Street will be used, it certainly should be improved to meet or
exceed minimum City Code requirements from the PPUD site to
Edmonds Avenue NE.
In reviewing the records on this matter, there is some ambiguity
with regard to the City Council ' s conditions for approval of the
Honey Creek PPUD. In the minutes of April 14, 1986, the PPUD was
approved subject to the following:
f
December 2 , 1987
Mayor Shinpoch & Renton City Council
Page Two
Dedication of a full 40-foot wide
right-of-way aligned with NE 23rd
Street between Harrington Avenue
N . E . and the site , with an
engineering report and
specifications for full-street
improvement as required by City
Code;" (hilighting added)
To get a total of forty feet of right-of-way , it is only
necessary to dedicate twenty feet (not forty feet) , since there
already exists a twenty foot dedication. However, it is clear
that the administration interprets this to require a total right-
of-way of forty feet, which would require a dedication of only
twenty feet, the amount the City apparently intends to condemn on
behalf of the developer.
A bigger problem is with regard to the condition that the
improvement be for a "full-street improvement as required by City
Code" . It is not possible to fit the full-street required by
the City Code within forty feet . Section 9-1108 7 . H .
establishes minimum widths for road improvements in subdivisions.
It requires a sixty foot minimum right-of-way for neighborhood
collectors . Neighborhood collectors are residential access
streets that are longer than 800 feet. If a street is shorter
than 800 feet , a fifty foot minimum right-of-way width is
allowed. A forty foot minimum width of right-of-way is allowed
only for one-way traffic in hillside areas, which is not the case
here. NE 23rd Street will be over 1260 feet long. Section 4-
2709 1 . C . states that design requirements for planned unit
developments shall be the same as requirements of the
Subdivision Ordinance.
The Minimum Standards for road improvements also require five
foot sidewalks and four foot planting strips on each side of the
street. The minimum improved street width allowed for any use is
thirty-two feet (residential access street less than 800 feet
long with a fifty foot right-of-way) .The improved street
width, plus the sidewalks, plus the planting strips , plus any
bulkheads and/or guard rails, all must fit within the right-of-
way.
It is obvious that forty feet (not twenty feet) of additional
right-of-way will need to be condemned and dedicated between
Harrington Avenue NE and the site, or the Council ' s direction
that NE 23rd Street be improved to specifications for full-street
improvements as required by the City Code will not be
December 2, 1987

accomplished. Also, twenty feet of additional right-of-way will
need to be obtained along NE 23rd Street between Edmonds Avenue
NE and Harrington Avenue N.E. in order to provide sixty feet of
right-of-way. By this letter we are requesting clarification
of the city street improvement requirements for NE 23rd Street.
For the record, my clients wish to make it clear that they
oppose having a substandard roadway through their neighborhood
which would be handling the volume of traffic to which this one
will be subject. It will be through an area of young families
with many children. At a minimum, that street has to have
sidewalks on both sides for the children to walk on, and planting
strips to provide some clearance between the sidewalks and
roadway surface.
Renton is now contemplating condemnation of an additional twenty
feet of right-of-way, as opposed to the direction that forty feet
would be dedicated. As mentioned above , there is already a
twenty foot right-of-way there which, of course, does not require
dedication. Prior to commencing that condemnation, this specific
question should be resolved, and its answer will have a great
impact on the neighborhood' s response to this PPUD.
Due to the increasing public concern about this project , it is
requested that this letter be placed upon the agenda of the next
City Council meeting. Thank you for your assistance.
Very truly yours,
HANIS & OLSO

October 19. 1987 Renton City Council Minutes Pane 331
Planning and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Stredicke presented a report
Development Committee recommending acceptance of the Honey Creek Annexation as modified by the
Minority Report King County Boundary Review Board. The report stated that any annexation
Annexation: Honey Creek that the City accepts should allow logical extension of services and be cost-
effective. In this case, the annexation as revised would include Devil's Elbow
Road which will require repairs estimated at hundreds of thousands of
it- 6 -8 7 dollars. Chairman Stredicke stated his opinion that because of excessive
burden on City tax dollars, this annexation is not reasonable, and should be
corrected by County tax funds prior to being approved.
MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY KEOLKER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN
THE MAJORITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
REPORT, AND DIRECT STAFF TO NEGOTIATE WITH KING COUNTY
FOR AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR PARTICIPATION IN AN
EAST-WEST ROADWAY BASED ON TRAFFIC USE.*
PUD: Preliminary, Honey Letter from Honey Creek PUD applicant Bob Tomberg was read confirming
Creek, PPUD-OT5-84 voluntary agreement that the time limits currently in effect for submittal of a
final plan for a PUD (Section 4-2711(6)(A) of City Code) shall be applicable
to the Honey Creek PUD. The section requires that the applicant submit the
final development plan within two years of the effective date of the Council
action to approve the preliminary plan, subject to one-year extension by the
Hearing Examiner.
The letter stated that said agreement is predicated on the fact that the time
taken by the city to condemn a portion of NE 23rd Street (Corman parcel)
will not apply to the time limit. Upon acquisition by the City of that parcel,
the two year "clock" will resume, and the two year time limit will be
cumulative, not consecutive. Mr. Tomberg's letter concluded by requesting
that the City confirm the agreement in writing.
Council discussion clarified the intent of the majority report that the
annexation would be accepted without opening Devil's Elbow Road within
the City limits due to high cost of repair; that access for the PUD
development is not required via Devil's Elbow Road; at sometime in the
future an east-west corridor must be provided for that area; that the portion
of Devil's Elbow Road located in King County is open for access; and the
Boundary Review Board conditioned approval of the annexation upon
inclusion of Devil's Elbow Road, and imposed a condition that if the
annexation is modified to delete the road, reapplication for annexation must
be delayed for one year. Councilman Reed concurred in Councilwoman
Mathews' request that the motion include a directive for staff to initiate
negotiations with King County for an interlocal agreement with the City of
Renton for participation in an east-west roadway which would reflect equal
funding contributions based on traffic use. Upon inquiry, City Attorney
Warren advised that the condemnation proceedings would be at the
developer's expense. *ROLL CALL: 5 AYES: TRIMM, MATHEWS,

Citizen Comment: Larson On a personal matter, Mrs. Larson objected to change in utility billing system
Utility Bills to monthly basis. She noted difficulty in budgeting for monthly bills when
meters are read bimonthly, and suggested that meters either be read each
month for actual water consumption or water useage estimated on the
alternate months to equalize monthly payments. Discussion was held by
Council regarding other billing options, including implementing budget
program similar to those offered by gas and power companies. MOVED BY

HONEY CREEK ANNEXATION ISSUE PAPER (Referred 8/17/87)
The Planning and Development Committee recommends that the Renton City Council
accEpt the Honey Creek Annexation as modified at public hearing by the King
Courty Boundary Review Board.
GivEn the Council ' s long-standing concerns in regards to the timing of planned
unit development, it is the Committee' s understanding that the proponent of
the Honey Creek Annexation and Planned Unit Development has voluntarily agreed
to impose upon his development the time limitations set forth in the City' s
new Planned Unit Development Ordinance (Chapter 27 of Title IV of the Renton
City Code) .

RE: Honey Creek PUD (PPUD-015-84)
By
This letter will confirm that the applicant with regard to the above referenced
matter, Honey Creek Associates,
agrees voluntarily that the time limitscurrentlyineffectforsubmittalofafinalplanforaPUD (Section 4-2711(6)(A), Renton City
Code) shall be applicable to the Honey Creek PUD.
The aforementioned section requires that the applicant submit the final
development plan to the City within two (2) years of the effective date of theCityCouncilactiontoapprovethepreliminaryplan, subject to the potential for a one
year extension at the discretion of the Hearing Examiner.
This understanding is predicated on the fact that the time taken by theCitytocondemnaportionofN.E. 23rd St., regarding the Corman parcel, will not apply
to the two year time limit on the submission of the final PUD plan. In other words,
the "clock" will not run on the final plan requirement while the City is condemning
that portion of the Corman property necessary to complete the City desiredfortyfootright-of-way. Upon the City acquiring the use and possession of the needed
N.E. 23rd St. right-of-way from the Cormans, the two year "clock" will again begin
to run. Therefore, the two year time limit will be a cumulative time limit and will
not necessarily run on a consecutive basis.
If this understanding is consistent with that of the Council and the City
administration, please confirm this fact in writing in order that there will not be
a misunderstanding in the future.
Thank you again for your patience and cooperation in considering this PUD.
Very truly yours,

HONI:Y CREEK ANNEXATION ISSUE PAPER (Referred 8/17/87)
The Planning and Development Committee is recommending acceptance of the Honey
Creek Annexation as modified by the King County Boundary Review Board.
Any annexation that the City accepts should be a logical extension of City
services and a cost-effective annexation. In this case, the annexation, as
revised, would include the Devil ' s Elbow Road which City staff has estimated
in the hundreds of thousands of dollars to fix. I do not feel it is a
reasonable annexation because of this excessive burden on City tax dollars
which should be corrected by County tax dollars before annexation.

Audience comment was invited. Clyde Cherberg, Boeing Commercial
Airplane Company, reported that in response to concern over protection of
ground water sources, Boeing has removed 48 separate tank systems from the
Renton plant alone and replaced them with above-ground systems. In
addition, a program has been established to upgrade the remaining 17 tanks.
While he supported the goal of the proposed ordinance, he felt refinements
are needed to clarify specific sections and consideration given to the
administrative burden the ordinance will place on both the City and tank
owners. Mr. Cherberg requested specific definition of uses excluded from
regulations; clarification of requirement to upgrade existing facility if a loss
of product occurs; establishment of criteria to determine whether a release
has occurred when underground storage tanks are closed; and he questioned
whether consideration has been given to the substantial administrative burden
placed on many tank owners and the City to implement and enforce new
regulations. Upon Council inquiry, Mr. Cherberg reported that of the 17
remaining tanks at the Renton plant, most will be removed eventually, and
those remaining will contain petroleum products. He agreed to supply a map
designating location of the tanks to the City upon request.
Darrell Robinson, 160 Water View Way, Folsom, California, engineer for
Shell Oil Company and member of Western Oil and Gas Association's
Northwest Fuel Storage Committee, requested reorganization of ordinance
sections to separate requirements for membrane liners and double wall tanks;
clarification of sections pertaining to frequency of inspections by a registered
corrosion engineer; consideration of other methods of testing annular space on
double wall tanks besides via pressure or vacuum; consideration of other
options for overflow protection system; clarification of definition of "special
accessories"; questioned upgrading entire existing system to new installation
requirements in the event of a loss of product; suggested use of automatic
tank gaugers and electronic line monitor/alarms to detect leaks and eliminate
need for soil sampling/analysis and ground water sampling; questioned
whether fee schedule has been established; and pointed out potential conflict
between time periods for permit renewal process and inspections by Fire
Marshal. Upon Council inquiry, Mr. Robinson stated that Shell has only one
station in Renton in the Kennydale area, and the storage facility in the
Valley is not state of the art.
Dennis Lensegrav, Manager of Puget Power, 620 South Grady Way, Renton,
indicated that Puget Power serves portions of nine counties in Washington
and the company is concerned with meeting Federal, State and local
requirements. He requested that Puget Power be involved in the review
process for ordinance formation.
Upon Council inquiry, Fire Marshal Gordon explained options for
containment including membrane liner; relayed information from the
Department of Ecology (DOE) regarding recent leak at Mobil tank farm; and
advised that DOE does not anticipate State legislation to monitor underground
storage tanks for approximately three to five years. MOVED BY REED,

discussed earlier by Fire Chief Wheeler.
Honey Creek Councilman Stredicke questioned participation by the City Attorney in Honey
Associates Creek Associates condemnation procedures. City Attorney Warren responded

PPUD-Q15-84 and the City Attorney's office for assistance in initial negotiations; report
back to Council would occur after pending response from property owners.
Parkland Addition Councilman Stredicke inquired regarding status of Parkland property addition
to the Maplewood Golf Course. Administrative Assistant Parness responded
the County Council has taken action on this matter, and it will be presented
to Council after completion of County process. It was indicated this property
had been purchased with Forward Thrust funds, restricting charging of lower
fees to city residents. Councilman Stredicke requested copies of materials
supporting this restriction.
ADMINISTRATIVE In response to Councilman Stredicke's inquiry, Mayor Shinpoch reported that,
REPORT in October, 1985, Council directed all airport leases be charged at 14e per

directives apply to all tenants (Boeing Company excepted due to fire
protection provided).

budgeted as part of the 1986 Budget.
Stilwill Sewer Mayor Shinpoch explained variation between estimate of $3,400 and $13,000

to original estimate being predicated on two factors: 1) More shallow depth
of connecting pipe, and 2) Ability to connect during construction of the

Bryn Mawr Water Mawr area water customers recently transferred to City water has been served
Service by only two water districts - Bryn Mawr Water District, formed in 1907, and
Water District #14, which replaced it in 1924, although water may have been
wholesaled to them from other districts. Unaware of a designated franchise
area, Mr. Miller questioned whether all homes transferred were within that
area and if franchising would involve water or only street usage. Mr. Miller
stated pressure charts indicating 25 pounds of pressure had been taken at the
fireplug on the City main, and did not guarantee consistent pressure at that
level. Utilities Committee Chairman Clymer stated this matter was still in
committee and would be on the agenda again at next week's meeting.

CORRESPONDENCE Letter from John L. Hendrickson, attorney for Honey Creek Associates,
Honey Creek requested assistance by the City Council in meeting right-of-way
Associates Rezone condition imposed on Honey Creek Associates Rezone, R-014-84, and
PPUD Preliminary Planned Unit Development, PPUD-015-84, approved
Conditions 4/14/86. (Rezone ordinance held awaiting approval of concurrent
annexation by King County Boundary Review Board.) The letter noted
difficulties incurred by applicant in acquiring right-of-way from owner
at 2216 Harrington Place NE to enable construction of full 40-foot road
aligned with NE 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue NE and the
applicant's property. The administrative staff, including the City
Attorney, was requested to initiate condemnation proceedings, if
necessary, with the understanding that the City would be reimbursed for
all costs.
City Attorney Warren reported that although the matter had been
discussed in Committee, the requirement for full-width right-of-way had
been approved by the Council without clarification of whether the City
would aid in condemnation procedures, if determined necessary. He
noted that if the Council wishes to concur in the applicant's request, the
City would have to determine whether or not the amount requested is
unreasonable before it would assist in the matter, and an agreement
reached for reimbursement of attorney's fees to ensure that the City is
not expending public funds to aid a developer. MOVED BY MATHEWS,
SECONDED BY KEOLKER, COUNCIL REFER THIS MATTER TO
THE CITY ATTORNEY TO PROVIDE PRELIMINARY ASSISTANCE
AND REPORT BACK TO COUNCIL IF FURTHER COUNCIL
ACTION IS REQUIRED. City Attorney Warren clarified that he would
obtain square footage calculations to determine appropriate value, discuss
attorney's fees with Mr. Hendrickson, and then report back to Council
before any further action is taken. MOTION CARRIED. Councilman
Stredicke requested his "no" vote be recorded, noting that if applicant
cannot meet required conditions, he should resubmit plans.

Re: Honey Creek Associates
Files Nos. R-014-84 and PPUD-015-84
Dear Council Members:
On April 14, 1986, the Council approved the above-referenced rezone and preliminary
planned unit development applications of the Honey Creek Associates. Condition
No. 3 of the approval requires the applicant to dedicate a full 40 foot-wide
right-of-way aligned with N.E. 23rd Street, between Harrington Avenue N.E. and
the subject property.
The aforementioned condition requires the applicant to acquire property which
is not now under its ownership in order to implement this condition. The Council
members were aware of this fact at the time of the approval and imposition of
the condition. We believe it was understood at the time of the approval by the
Council members that, in the event the acquisition of the necessary property for
the right-of-way became impractical or reasonably impossible, the City would
assist in this endeavor by the utilization of its eminent domain powers. The applicant
has negotiated for several months with the owner of the property which is needed
for additional right-of-way. The owner of the property and its location are: Randy
Corman, 2216 Harrington Place, N.E., Renton, Washington 98125.
It is my understanding that Mr. Corman purchased his 1.2 acre parcel within the
past year for a total of $78,000. The applicant has offered to purchase a 20' x
250' (5,000 sq. ft.) portion of Mr. Corman's property in order to provide the necessary
additional right-of-way. The applicant has offered the amount of $3,335 which
is the value Mr. Corman paid on a per-square-foot basis. This offer includes the
value of the existing structure on this property, even though the structure is not
located on the portion that is required to implement the subject condition. Mr.
City Council-Renton
Re: Honey Creek Associates
August 27, 1986
p - 2
Corman has countered that he would sell the required portion of his parcel for
60,000 or would sell his whole parcel for $150,000. It has become apparent that
Mr. Corman, either on his own or at the urging of others in his area, is attempting
to make an unreasonable profit as a result of the City's requirement of the applicant,
or is endeavoring to frustrate the implementation of the City Council's approval
of the subject applications.
In behalf of the applicant, we hereby respectfully request that the City Council
members direct the administrative staff of the City, including the City Attorney,
to review this matter with Mr. Corman and initiate condemnation proceedings
if necessary. The applicant is willing to enter into an agreement with the City
by which it would reimburse the City for its costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorney fees, which it might incur in this matter.
The applicant is willing to comply with each of the conditions which have been
imposed by the City Council with regard to the subject application. The assistance
of the City with regard to the implementation of the right-of-way condition will
be very much appreciated and the Council Members are urged to request an
expeditious resolution of this matter between the City and Mr. Corman.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Very truly yours,

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted,
Honey Cred, published and mailed in accordance with State and local laws,
75% Annexation, Mayor Shinpoch opened the public hearing to consider the Honey
Rezone and Creek 75% annexation petition for six parcels of property
r eTT naE4 containing 59.30 acres, located southeast of NE 27th Street
PUD and east of Kirkland Avenue NE in the area known as "Devil ' s
R-014-84 Elbow." A concurrent rezone request (R-014-84) and Preliminary
PPUD-015-84 Planned Unit Development application (PPUD-015-84) were approved
by the City Council on 4/14/86 following review of two appeals
of the Hearing Examiner' s recommendation. As part of that
approval , R-1 and R-2 zoning were designated on the area west
of the Honey Creek ravine, G-1 zoning for the ravine area,
and R-1 zoning was designated east of the ravine. The 75%%
petition contains signatures representing 82.9% of the assessed
valuation within the annexation area, and participants have
agreed to accept the City's zoning, Comprehensive Plan, and
bonded indebtedness as a condition of annexation.
Policy Development Director Larry Springer presented a general
information report which explained the concurrent review
process for the three applications; recommended support of
the City Council ' s position on the rezone and preliminary
PUD; and recommended approval of the annexation request.

PUD maneuvering emergency vehicles.
R-014-84
PPUD-015-84 Prior City Council action on this matter was summarized, and it
continued was noted that the rezone and preliminary PUD were approved with
an amendment to rezone the two parcels located east of Honey
Creek to an R-1 zone rather than a G-1 zone to eliminate
necessity for the proponent to submit a rezone application at
a later date. Submission of a detailed geotechnical report
and site plan for the G-1 and R-1 zoned properties was required
due to concern with stability of steep slopes. Mr. Springer
also advised that a major change from the original PUD
proposal is requirement of dedication of a 40-foot easement
at the extension of NE 23rd Street as a condition of final
PUD approval to ensure improvement of that roadway to City
standards. Original approval for access at NE 21st Street
has been eliminated; therefore, two primary access roads will be
provided into the development, one at Jefferson Avenue NE
and the other at NE 23rd Street. If the additional 20 feet
of right-of-way on the south side of NE 23rd Street cannot be
acquired, the development will not be allowed to proceed.
Audience comment was invited. Bob Tomberg, 5611 119th SE,
Suite 2, Bellevue, owner of Honey Creek Associates, indicated
that original concerns identified by residents relating to
dumping, noise, motorcycles, and fire and police protection
have been addressed in the proposal through the review process.
Therefore, he requested approval of the project by the Council .
Roger Greene, 9818 124th Avenue SE, residing north and east of
the subject site, questioned proposed density and indicated
concern with access into the site from the north and east if
Devil 's Elbow Road is barricaded in the future. He felt that
King County residents should not be required to subsidize
costs of improving access roads to the development site.
Tom Malmoe, 12105 SE 196th Place, residing east of the proposal ,
questioned whether the required percentage of participants has
signed the 75% annexation petition; inquired whether a nature
trail will be provided along Honey Creek; and asked if the
possible closure of McKnight Middle School has been considered
in the review process. Mr. Springer confirmed that the
petition represents 75% of the assessed valuation of the
annexing area; an existing sewer easement is a possible area
for a nature trail , but that phase of the project has not yet
been considered.
Norm Peterson, 3402 Park Avenue North, Renton, urged retention
of natural vegetation areas; questioned whether the developer
is being favored over residents; and wondered if there is a
market for new residential units. Mayor Shinpoch noted that
market studies are usually accomplished prior to undertaking
the expensive development process.
Mrs. Wayne Oyler, 2132 Harrington Place NE, requested
clarification of proposed access into the site. Mr. Springer
explained location of recommended access points from Jefferson
Avenue NE and NE 23rd Street, if right-of-way can be acquired.
Kathleen Gormley, 2820 NE 23rd Place, indicated her understanding
that NE 23rd Street would be used for emergency access only.
Mr. Springer reiterated previous comments, noting that full
improvement of NE 23rd Street as a primary access point into
the site has been required to comply with building and fire
codes.
Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, requested that the matter of
roadway widths be investigated since a total 60-foot width
meets requirement for collector road. Mr. Springer referenced

Request in the area to compare annexation fees, and has found that
Renton' s fees are the highest. Mrs. Cochran submitted a map

annexation proposal , and cited serious sewage and storm
drainage problems in the area. Upon inquiry, Policy Development
Director Springer confirmed the City' s annexation fee of $500
plus additional fees for SEPA review. Following discussion

Whole agenda, it was moved by Stredicke, seconded by Mathews,
Council find the request before it involves single property
owners in an area that is a logical extension of the City
boundaries and can be properly served by City utilities;
therefore, the annexation fees be waived. Due to legal
concerns raised by Assistant City Attorney Fontas relating
to reference of a specific class of people, motion not accepted
by Mayor Shinpoch. Ms. Fontas indicated she will research the
matter and report back to Council . An updated vicinity map

HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES ANNEXATION
Annexation Review Summary -
Public Hearing - May 12, 1986)
A. `)UMMARY AND LOCATION
he applicant proposes the annextion of six (6) parcels of property containing ±
9.30 acres and with signatures constituting 82.9% of the assessed valuation within
the proposed annexing area. The subject properties are located southeast of N.E.
7th Street and east of Kirkland Avenue N.E. in the area known locally as "Devil's
Elbow." A concurrent rezone request (R-014-84) and planned unit development
application (PPUD-015-84) have also been filed for the subject site. On April 14,
986, the City Council approved R-1 and R-2 zoning west of the Honey Creek
ravine and R-1 zoning east of the ravine. The ravine itself was designated G-1.
B. GENERAL INFORMATION
he City limits in the vicinity of the subject annexation were created by Ordinance
No. 1622 (June 24, 1957), Ordinance No. 1796 (October 7, 1959), and Ordinance No.
401 (February 11, 1980). King County zoning of the subject properties includes the
following:
1) RS-7200 Residential Single Family
SE Suburban Estate
SR Suburban Residential
1 he City of Renton Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as Single Family
i- the northwest and northeast portions while the west central and southwest
l ortions are classified Low Density Multiple Family and the north and south central
sections are considered Greenbelt.
C. PUBLIC SERVICES
City of Renton water service is currently provided to the developed properties both
to the south and west and north and east of the proposed annexing area. Water
service to the proposed annexation would require looping of the water system
through the annexation to provide appropriate connections. Sanitary sewers in the
immediate vicinity are provided by the City of Renton, and the recently constructed
12" Honey Creek Interceptor has significantly increased the capacity. Fire service
is currently provided by Fire District No. 25 and would be provided by the Renton
Highlands Station at N.E. 9th Street and Harrington Avenue N.E. Equipment and
personnel include one fire pumper, four firefighters, and one aid car. Back-up
s ipport for large scale fires would come from the Headquarters Station located at
200 Mill Avenue South with a pumper, ladder truck, and aid car staffed by eight
firefighters. City of Renton police patrols occur in the neighborhoods immediately
south and west of the proposed annexation.
D. I NALYSIS
1. Departments evaluating the subject annexation have not identified any severe
problems related to their areas of responsibility as a result of this proposal.
However, the Public Works and Police Departments and Fire Prevention
Bureau have all expressed concerns about access and provision of emergency
services to the site. (See later discussion.)
2. Reviewing departments have indicated that the proposed annexation
represents a logical extension of services provided by their departments.
3. All departments have indicated that service to this area could be
accommodated within existing facilities, staff, and budget resources, except
that the Police Department advises that an additional patrol vehicle and 4-1/2
officers could be required to maintain 24-hour service.
2 -
4. The Fire Prevention Bureau has noted that allowable response times to the
subject site will be reached when the North Kennydale Fire Station is
operational and the present Highlands Station is moved to the east (based upon
full development of the site).
5. It is essential that existing area school land is available for park use advises
the Parks and Recreation Department. If not, an additional park may be
required. Also, when the site is developed the proponent should submit a plan
for retaining greenbelts (open space). On-site recreation is essential to the
area. Also a recreational easement is recommended on the site for future
City trails.
6. City Council Resolution No. 2429 establishes policies for the evaluation of
annexation applications. The proposed annexation is generally consistent with
those policies favoring extension of public services, falls within the City's
identified sphere of influence, and is within its general service areas.
E. MAJOR ISSUES
1. Devil's Elbow Road (120th Place S.E.) - The Public Works Department
recommended that this section of roadway (near the northwesterly extreme of
the site) be excluded from the proposed annexation because the City of Renton
would be faced with exclusive responsibility for maintenance of the street and
this would be prohibitively expansive at this time given the traffic volumes on
it. Citing service delays on site and elsewhere due to inadequate road design
and access, the Police Department also expressed serious concern about
Devil's Elbow. The Fire Prevention Bureau also advised that development of
the site north and east of the long ravine (extending northwest-southwest)
would result in unacceptable time limitations on fire response unless the
capital improvements noted in D-4 (above) are constructed. For these
reasons, the Devil's Elbow section of roadway has been removed from the
annexation proposal.
2. Zoning East of the Ravine - On January 17, 1986 the Hearing Examiner
recommended approval of the rezone and the preliminary P.U.D. subject to
several conditions. The zoning recommended included R-1 and R-2 categories
west of the Honey Creek ravine with the remainder of the site designated
G-1. The Hearing Examiner's decision was appealed and after reviewing the
appeal, the Council's Planning and Development Committee recommended the
Hearing Examiner's decision be upheld subject to the following:
1) Submission of a final PUD for eventual development of the subject site.
2) Annexation of the site into the City of Renton.
3) Dedication of a full 40 foot wide right-of-way aligned with N.E. 23rd
Street between Harrington Avenue N.E. and the site with an
engineering report and specifications for a full street improvement as
required by City Code.
4) Submission with the final PUD application of a detailed geotechnical
analysis prepared by independent engineers selected with the approval
of both the Building and Zoning and Public Works Departments. The
report shall include but not be limited to information regarding: site
stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine and stream close to
the current state: long term implications of the development on erosion
potential; geologic hazards including earthquake analysis; site
preparation and restoration: and building techniques.
5) Plans for the final PUD shall be more detailed and provide a description
of the usable open space, recreation and building details.
3 -
6) The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of
the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if
the property is sold.
Such an easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single
entity or a homeowner/condominium association, to do maintenance
work on the steep slopes below the proposed PUD. In addition, the
applicant shall record covenants running with the land requiring that
the slope on the west side of Honey Creek be maintained as closely as is
possible in its natural state.
7) The submission of detailed engineering report regarding sewer, water,
drainage, roadway engineering, etc.
8) The elimination of the connection and entry of N.E. 21st Street.
9) The property zoned G-1 shall have no development upon the property
without the City being provided with detailed geotechnical information
regarding the site and site plan or PUD approval. The applicant shall
sign and file a restrictive covenant, running with the land, so stating.
10) This is a conceptual approval of a preliminary planned unit development
and does not vest in the applicant or its successor or assigns any
development rights on this parcel of property without recommendation
by City staff and approval by the Council of the geotechnical studies
required above.
On April 14, 1986 the full City Council reviewed Planning and Development's
recommendation and approved it with the following revision:
Condition #9 was amended to reflect that two large parcels east of the Honey Creek
ravine would be zoned R-1 rather than G-1. This was approved 4-3 after the
proponent argued that it would make greater sense to rezone the area at this stage
rather than later and reduce an already lengthy process. Some Council members
concurred in these remarks and reminded those present that there would still be
ample opportunity for more intensive review when the final P.U.D. application was
submitted. City Attorney Larry Warren clarified that the intent of this amended
language was to reflect that both of these parcels zoned R-1 shall have no
development without submission of required studies and that the G-1 zoned area
would retain identical restrictions as well as zoning constraints which permit just
one dwelling per 35,000 square feet.
F. RECOMMENDATION
Based upon the foregoing analysis, the Policy Development Department supports the
City Council's position on the rezone and preliminary P.U.D. and the various City
departments' recommendations for approval of the requested annexation. It is,
therefore, advised that the petition application be approved by Council and that the
Policy Development Department be instructed to submit a notice of intent package
to the King County Boundary Review Board pursuant to existing policy.

Old Business Honey Creek Associates appeals. MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY
KEOLKER, COUNCIL SUSPEND THE REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS AND
ADVANCE TO OLD BUSINESS, PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
REPORT. CARRIED.
Plannin and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Keolker presented
eve opment a report regarding two appeals filed on the Honey Creek Associates
Committee rezone and preliminary planned unit development, located in the
oney Creek vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue (Devil ' s Elbow) .
Associates
R-014-84 The Committee report stated that detailed geotechnical and
PPUD-015-84 engineering information must be provided before the final
PUD is approved. Also, full street improvements on a 40-
foot public right-of-way alignment with NE 23rd Street must
be installed to provide access to the development.
The Committee recommended that both appeals, from Honey
Creek Associates, developer, and Mitch Murray, area resident ,
be denied. The Committee further recommended that the City
Council approve the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner
and approve the requested zoning for the site subject to
the following conditions:
1) Submission of a final PUD for eventual development of the
subject site;
2) Annexation of the site into the (Tity of Renton;
3) Dedication of a full 40-foot wide right-of-way aligned with
NE 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue NE and the site, with
an engineering report and specifications for full-street
improvement as required by City Code;
4) Submission with the final PUD application of a detailed
geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers
selected with approval of both Building & Zoning and Public
Works Departments. The report shall include but not be limited
to information regarding site stability/slope integrity;
preservation of ravine and stream close to their current state;
long term erosion potential by the development; geologic
hazards including earthquake analysis; site preparation and
restoration; and building techniques;
5) Plans for the final PUD shall be more detailed, and
provide a description of the usable open space, recreation
and building details;
6) The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the
ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of
ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such
an easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single
entity or a homeowner/condominium association, to do
maintenance work on the steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
In addition, the applicant shall record covenants running
with the land requiring that the slope on the west side of
Honey Creek be maintained as closely as is possible in its
natural state;
7) The submission of detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc. ;
8) The elimination of the connection and entry of NE 21st
Street;
Later modified c9) The property zoned G-1 shall have no development upon the
property without the City being provided with detailed
geotechnical information regarding the site and site plan or
PUD approval . The applicant shall sign and file a restrictive
covenant, running with the land, so stating;
Renton City Council

Planning & Development Committee Report continued
Honey Creek 10) This is a conceptual approval of a preliminary planned
Associates unit development and does not vest in the applicant or its
R-014-84 successor or assigns any development rights on this parcel
PPUD-015-84 or property without recommendation by city staff and approval
by the Council of the geotechnical studies required above.
Chairman Keolker indicated that the Committee had met several
times to resolve concerns related to emergency access. She
also advised that the 75% Annexation Petition and concurrent
rezone hearing for Honey Creek Associates will be held by the
Council on May 12, 1986.
Referencing Condition No. 9 of the Committee report, Mr.
Tomberg agreed that development of the property on the easterly
side of the ravine cannot proceed until detailed geotechnical
studies and fire and police services are provided. However,
to eliminate the need to reapply for a rezone in the future,
he requested that those parcels be rezoned to R-1 at this
time. He also noted that development cannot proceed until
a PUD is reviewed and approved by the Council . MOVED BY
KEOLKER, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE
REPORT. Councilman Stredicke supported the applicant' s
request for R-1 zoning of the property east of the ravine
since there will be further opportunity for the City to
review plans prior to development. MOVED BY STREDICKE,
SECONDED BY CLYMER, COUNCIL AMEND THE MOTION TO CHANGE
CONDITION NO. 9 OF THE COMMITTEE REPORT TO INDICATE THAT
THE AREA EAST OF HONEY CREEK RAVINE BE REZONED TO R-1 ,
WITH THE REST OF THE SENTENCE REMAINING OPERATIVE.* Speaking
against the amendment, Chairman Keolker reminded Council members
that the subject proposal was submitted prior to adoption of
new PUD ordinance; therefore, is being reviewed under old
provisions. If the two parcels east of the ravine are rezoned
to R-1 instead of G-1 , a potential higher density on the entire
site could be calculated due to density shifts allowed under
the PUD process. The stability of the site is in question,
access is unresolved, and provision of fire and police
protection is yet to be determined. Councilman Stredicke
felt these concerns can be resolved during future review.
ROLL CALL: 4 AYES: TRIMM, CLYMER, HUGHES, STREDICKE. 3 NAYS:
MATHEWS, KEOLKER, REED. CARRIED. MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED.
CARRIED. City Attorney Warren clarified that the intent of
the motion is to change the wording of Condition No. 9 to
reflect that both of the flat parcels east of the ravine
zoned R-1 shall have no development without provision of
required studies, but G-1 zoned property would retain the
same restrictions as well as zoning constraints which allow
only one dwelling unit per 35,000 square feet.

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT
RE: Appeal of Honey Creek Associates and Appeal of Mitch Murray
The Planning and Development Committee met on the appeals of
Honey Creek Associates and Mitch Murray, the first meeting being held
March 28 , 1986 and the second meeting on April 2 , 1986 .
The Planning and Development Committee was primarily concerned
about access to the proposed development and the lack of detailed
geotechnical information. It was understood that the preliminary
planned unit development (PPUD) is conceptual and that the developer
must provide detailed geotechnical and engineering information before
the final PUD will be approved. In addition, full street improve-
ments on a 40 foot public right-of-way alignment with N.E. 23rd
are necessary to provide necessary traffic access to the development.
It is therefore the Planning and Development Committee ' s recommendation
that both appeals be denied and that the City Council approve the
recommendation of the Hearing Examiner and approve the requested
zoning for the site subject to the following:
1 . Submission of a final PUD for eventual development of the
subject site .
2 . Annexation of the site into the City of Renton;
3 . Dedication of a full 40 foot wide right-of-way aligned
with N.E. 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue N.E.
and the site with an engineering report and specifications
for a full street improvement as required by City Code .
4 . Submission with the final PUD application of a detailed
geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers
selected with the approval of both the Building & Zoning
and Public Works Departments. The report shall include
but not be limited to information regarding: site
stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine
and stream close to their current state; long term
implications of the development on erosion potential;
geologic hazards including earthquake analysis; site
preparation and restoration; and building techniques .
5 . Plans for the final PUD shall be more detailed and
provide a description of the usable open space, recreation
and building details .
6 . The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the
ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems
of ownership and responsibility if the property is sold.
Such an easement would permit the PUD ownership,
whether a single entity or a homeowner/condominium
association, to do maintenance work on the steep
slopes below the proposed PUD. In addition, the
applicant shall record covenants running with the land
requiring that the slope on the West side of Honey
Creek be maintained as closely as is possible in its
natural state.
7 . The submission of detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc .
8 . The elimination of the connection and entry of N.E.
21st Street. t/
9 . The property zoned G-1 shall have no development upon
d
the property without the City being provided with w
detailed geotechnical information regarding the site
and site plan or PUD approval . The applicant shall sign

indicated that a distinction must be made between outright
trespassing and First Amendment guarantees; parking lots,
even on private property, have a quasi-public status; and
police are instructed to observe, ascertain that demonstrators
are not impeding traffic, creating a safety problem, physically
denying ingress/access or otherwise breaking the law.
Demonstrators will be cited if they engage in unlawful
behavior.

OLD BUSINESS Council President Mathews presented a Committee of the Whole
Committee of report recommending that the Policy Development Department
the Whole proceed with negotiations with the City of Tukwila to
Renton/Tukwila adjust the Renton/Tukwila boundary line and adopt the eastern
Boundary edge of the Burlington Northern Railroad right-of-way as the
Adjustment new boundary line between the two cities. Reasons for the
Referred change are: 1 ) Irregular line creates identity confusion for
3/10/86)businesses; 2) Lack of control of development approval process
may impact adjacent land use compatibility; 3) Difficulty in
providing utilities and public services to area bisected by
the railroad.
Under the proposal , Tukwila would gain 45 parcels (101 acres)
with an assessed value of approximately $14 million. Renton
would gain 11 parcels (114 acres) with an assessed value of
approximately $3 million.
While Renton would initially lose $36,000 per year in 1986 tax
dollars, projected development of the Burlington Northern site
south of 27th Street West should accrue a tax benefit to Renton
in the near future.
The cost of two railroad crossing projects, one with the
extension of 27th Street West (Strander Boulevard) , and the
other on SW 43rd, would be shared equally by the two
jurisdictions.

TO: Planning and Development Committee
FROM:
i
toger J. Blaylock, Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT:```//HEARING EXAMINER CONDITIONS/HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES/
R-014-84 AND PPUD-015-84
In response to the Planning and Development Committee's request, the specific conditions
referred to by the Hearing Examiner in his decision portion of the statement have been
taken directly out of the conclusion portion for the Committee's review.
Each of those conditions have been referenced to the appropriate conclusion statement
below:
1. Per Conclusion #9, Page 10
Final plans would have to be more detailed and provide the realistic
open space, recreation, and building details.
2. Per Conclusion #10, Page 10
With the submission of the final PUD, the applicant will have to
present a detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by independent
engineers selected with the approval of both the Building/Zoning and
Public Works Departments. The report shall include but not be limited
to information regarding: site stability/slope integrity; preservation
of the ravine and stream close to their current state; long-term
implications of the development on erosion potential; geologic hazards
including earthquake analysis; site preparation and restoration; and
building techniques.
3. Per Conclusion #11, Page 10
The applicant should be required to provide a slope easement to the
ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership
and responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such an easement would
permit the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a
homeowner/condominium association, to do maintenance work on the
steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
lanning and Development Committee
March 31, 1986
Page 2
4. Per Conclusion 018, Page 11
The PUD proposed by the applicant should be approved subject to the
submission of the detailed engineering report, the elimination of the
connection and entry at N.E. 21st Street, with covenants requiring the
slope on the west side of Honey Creek be maintained as close as
possible in their natural state and providing a slope easement to the
ultimate owners of the property for maintenance purposes. (This .
statement is reiterated in recommendation #2.)
The Examiner also raises another issue which he does not make a recommendation on.
The issue is whether secondary emergency access should be off of N.E. 23rd Street or off
of Devil's Elbow.
5. Per Conclusions 013 and 014
Conflicting figures submitted regarding potential road grades do
not weigh more heavily for one method over the other. The
grades appear comparable.
If Devil's Elbow could serve for emergency purposes it should be
considered.
The Fire Marshal's office has taken a position that the appropriate access is off of N.E.
23rd Street.

Renton, Washington 98055
Regarding: Hearing Examiner's Report dated 17 January 1986, Honey Creek
Associates File No. R-014-84 & PPUD-015-84
I hereby file Notice of Appeal , to the Renton City Council , with regard to the
facts , conclusions and recommendations contained within the Report and
Recorrmendation of the Land Use Hearing Examiner dated January 17, 1986
regarding the Honey Creek area rezone and PPUD.
Summary of Appeal
1 . I request that the Hearing Examiner's recommendation No. 1 be modified to
recommend that the zoning for the proposed R-1 , L-shaped, 8.1 acre region in
the southwest corner of the site be changed to G-1 zoning. This is
appropriate in view of the fact that of this 8.1 acres, more than half is
sloped more than 40% as shown in the 'Honey Creek Appeal ' letter to the Renton
City Clerk from M. Murray dated April 3,1985. In addition it is premature to
zone this class III , 8.1 acre area for R-1 development without first having a
detailed, geotechnical report showing that it is practical to build on. The
allowable PPUD unit count should be lowered due to this zone change.
2. I re uest that the Hearing Examiner's recommendation No. 2. be changed to
a rec )mm ndation of a denial of the PPUD. A denial is appropriate in view
of: the lack of documentation regarding plans for dealing with the poor soil
stabilit of the area; the class III nature of the soils in the area which
may make it impractical to provide access to the area and also may make it
impracti al to locate the proposed apartment units in there proposed
location;
and the lack of an emergency access for fire vehicles that
satisfie minimum width standards.

Errors of Fact, Conclusion, Code Conformance or Recommendation
1 . Err r of Fact: Page 2, paragraph three, sentence four states: ". . .4
acre o the 14.06 has slopes in excess of 15%. " Actually 8.8 acres of the
14.06 acres has slopes in excess of 15% as shown in the 'Honey Creek
Arithmetic Error' letter to the City Council from M. Murray dated April
22,185.
2. Error of Conclusion: Regarding conclusion number 9, sentence number 3,
which sates:
The 72 units would not produce substantially more traffic than a single
family neighborhood. "
The above sentence is incorrect. The public record contains a letter from M.
Murray to the City of Renton Hearing Examiner, dated February 26, 1985.
Attachment J of this letter shows a typical plat map for this area as would be
used if it were developed as a single family neighborhood. Also shown on the
attachment is the location of land areas where the slope is more than 40%. As
shown or} the attachment only about 22 single family R-1 lots can be fitted
into the south western area. The number of lots that can be fitted is
severely restricted by: minimum lot area and lot width requirements, the loss
of land area needed for local streets, and the fact that a substantial portion
of the land area is sloped over 40% and is therefore unbuildable.
Thus conclusion number 9, sentence number 3 should be modified to read
something like :
lhe ,proposed 72 units would produce more traffic than a single family
rei0hborhood. (Approximately 22 homes is the maximum that could be
dev loped based on underlying R-1 zoning due to the severe topography).
page 2
February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, ipuD-015-84, R-014-84
3. Error of Conclusion: Conclusion number 10 should be changed. The
conclusion recommends that a detailed geotechnical analysis be obtained for
the site as part of the final PUD. I believe that it is in public interest
and 1:he 'developers interest to require that this report be provided before the
PPUD concept is approved.
The area is classified as class III (which is the most severe class) in all
three land stability categories (land slide, erosion, and earthquake) in the
King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio. The proposed western access roadway,
which is an extension of Jefferson Ave NE, and the southern access roadway
both traverse Class III hillsides that are sloped more than 40%.
The pro osal indicates that the western access roadway is to be build to city
standar s which requires a pavement width of a minimum of 32ft. and a total
width with sidewalks of 50ft. It seems likely that, from an engineering
standpoint, it may be impractical to build such a road. This roadway, in
comb- nation with NE 23rd street, is the proposed emergency access to the
development. If it is impractical to build the roadway, then the proposed
PPUD would lack emergency access and would have to be altered to use Devil 's
Elboe fir access or be denied.
The southern access roadway is shown as being build to driveway standards at
24ft. i width. It will probably be easier to build than the western roadway
due i;o it's lesser width, however it also traverses a class III hillside
sloped more than 40% which may be impractical to build. If it is impractical
to buil this roadway, then the proposed PPUD would have to be altered to use
Devil 's Elboe or be denied.
In view of the importance of these two roadways to the viability of the
propose PPUD, and in view of the class III conditions of the area, it is only
prudent and in the interest of all concerned, to establish if is safe and
practical to build them as early in the approval process as practical . Thus a
page 3
February 18, 1986, H. Murray to Renton City Clerk, rruU-015-84, R-014-84
detailed geotechnical engineering report, including stability of the proposed
western and southern roadbeds, along with design details of the road
construction, should be required before this PPUD is granted. This current
proposed PPUD concept does not make sense without documented safe and
practical access.
Furt[ermore, as proposed the location of the apartment units A, B, C, E, F, H
and ] are all within approximately loft of the edge of class III hillsides
sloped more than 40%. It may be impractical to locate these units in their
proposed locations.
In sLmmary, it is clear that the practicality and viability of the PPUD is
critically tied to the condition of the underlying soils. Thus it is prudent
to rEquire detailed geotechnical studies before a PPUD concept, or any
development concept for this area, is considered or approved.
4. Error of Conclusion: Conclusion number 14, sentence number 7 and 8, state:
Jefferson could provide the primary access point and N.E. 23rd could
remain a gated emergency approach to the site. (Although this Office
would like to be informed of the authority to waive the minimum width
Standards for an emergency access and what criteria were utilized)."
I believe that one of the most important functions of city government is to
provide and enforce safety rules. The Uniform Fire Code is clear with regard
to minimum standards for access roadways for fire apparatus. A driving
surface of not less than 20 feet of unobstructed width is the minimum
stancard.
Allowing a development concept to proceed, without it meeting minimum fire
protEction standards, is a very bad precedent and is certainly not in the
public interest.
page 4
February 18, 198t,, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, rrUD-015-84, R-014-84
20 feet of pavement width cannot be provided on NE 23rd street due to the
limited overall right of way of only 20ft and the bulkhead/rockery
requirements that must fit within this 20ft. In addition an emergency access
at NE 23rd street, whether gated or not, would be a safety hazard and an eye
sore to the adjacent single family neighborhood, due to the high bulkheads
required on this proposed roadway and the corresponding disruption of the
local topography. Therefore NE 23rd street should not be considered for
emergency access.
5. Lack of Conformance to Renton Code. Renton Code section 4-2709,4,C states:
C. Geologic Hazard or Flooding. Development of areas on or near
sites where landslides or flooding have been known to occur or may
reasonably be expected to occur shall be subject to Section 9-1108 18
of the City Code entitled 'Plat Improvements and Development
Standards ' . "
Section 9-1108,18 states:
18. Flooding and Geological Hazard. If any portion of the land
within the boundary of a preliminary plat or approved record or
survey is subject to flooding or inundation, that portion of the
subdivision shall have the approval of the State of Washington
according to RWC 86.16 before the Building Department and the Hearing
Examiner shall consider such subdivision. If any portion of a
preliminary plat is subject to flooding, inundation or geological
hazard and the probable use of the property will require structures,
the Hearing Examiner shall disapprove the preliminary plat or that
portion of the subdivision so affected. Protective improvements may
be constructed as a conditional precedent to approval of the
preliminary/final plat. The Building Department may require the
subdivider to submit a geologist's report if there is concern about
geological hazards. "
page 5
Fobruary 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
The i;urtent proposed PPUD should be disapproved because there is no
documen ation showing approval by the State of Washington under RCW 86.16, and
protect ve improvements have not been presented, and a geologist's report has
not begin submitted. This area is class III (the severest class) in
land;,lile, erosion and earthquake damage potential , therefore it is prudent to
require this documentation before PPUD approval .
6. Lack of Conformance to Renton Code. Section 4-2709,1 ,A states:
A. Subdivision Requirements. If land or structures within a
proposed planned unit development are to be sold to more than one
person, partnership, firm or corporation or are to include the
dedication of land, then the proposed planned unit development shall
be subject to the short cr major subdivision proceedings in addition
to the requirements of this Section. "
The r::ur'ent proposed PPUD includes a dedication of 0.85 acres. Therefore it
must be subject to the subdivision proceedings in addition to the PPUD
proceedings. There is no documentation to indicate that this was
accomplished. The subdivision proceedings would involve a public hearing.
The current proposed PPUD should be denied since the subdivision proceedings
have not been completed.
7. Lrror in Recommendation. Recommendation number 2. states:
1pp.ove the PPUD subject to the submission of the detailed engineering
epgrt, the elimination of the connection and entry at N.E. 21st, provide
ovenants requiring the slopes on the west side of Honey Creek be
maintained as close as possible in their natural state, and providing a
slo a easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property for maintenance
pur oses. "
page 6
February 18, 1986, Murray to Renton City Clerk, , . JD-015-84, R-014-84
The above recommendation should be changed to recommend a denial of the PPUD
as proposed. A denial is appropriate in view of the lack of documentation
regarding soil stability, the class III nature of the soils in the area which
may make it impractical to provide access to the area, and the lack of an
emergency access for fire vehicles that satisfies minimum safety standards.
Sincerely,
Mitch Murray

Regarding: Hearing Examiner 's Report dated 17 January 1986, Honey Creek
Associates File No. R-014-84 & PPUD-015-84
I hereby file Notice of Appeal , to the Renton City Council , with regard to the
facts, conclusions and recommendations contained within the Report and
Recommendation of the Land Use Hearing Examiner dated January 17, 1986
regarding the Honey Creek area rezone and PPUD.
Sunrrary of Appeal
1 . I request that the Hearing Examiner's recommendation No. 1 be modified to
reccmmend that the zoning for the proposed R-1 , L-shaped, 8.1 acre region in
the southwest corner of the site be changed to G-1 zoning. This is
appropriate in view of the fact that of this 8.1 acres, more than half is
sloped more than 40% as shown in the 'Honey Creek Appeal ' letter to the Renton
City Clerk from M. Murray dated April 3,1985. In addition it is premature to
zone this class III , 8.1 acre area for R-1 development without first having a
detailed geotechnical report showing that it is practical to build on. The
allowable PPUD unit count should be lowered due to this zone change.
2. I request that the Hearing Examiner's recommendation No. 2. be changed to
a recommendation of a denial of the PPUD. A denial is appropriate in view
of: the lack of documentation regarding plans for dealing with the poor soil
stability of the area; the class III nature of the soils in the area which
may make it impractical to provide access to the area and also may make it
impractical to locate the proposed apartment units in there proposed
locations; and the lack of an emergency access for fire vehicles that
satisfies minimum width standards.
page 1
February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
Errors of Fact, Conclusion, Code Conformance or Recommendation
1 . Error of Fact: Page 2, paragraph three, sentence four states: ". . .4
acres of the 14.06 has slopes in excess of 15%. " Actually 8.8 acres of the
14.C6 acres has slopes in excess of 15% as shown in the 'Honey Creek
Arithmetic Error' letter to the City Council from M. Murray dated April
22,1985.
2. Error of Conclusion: Regarding conclusion number 9, sentence number 3,
which states:
The 72 units would not produce substantially more traffic than a single
family neighborhood. "
The above sentence is incorrect. The public record contains a letter from M.
Murray to the City of Renton Hearing Examiner, dated February 26, 1985.
Attachment J of this letter shows a typical plat map for this area as would be
usecl if it were developed as a single family neighborhood. Also shown on the
attachment is the location of land areas where the slope is more than 40%. As
shovrn on the attachment only about 22 single family R-1 lots can be fitted
into the south western area. The number of lots that can be fitted is
sevErely restricted by: minimum lot area and lot width requirements, the loss
of land area needed for local streets, and the fact that a substantial portion
of the land area is sloped over 40% and is therefore unbuildable.
Thus conclusion number 9, sentence number 3 should be modified to read
something like:
The proposed 72 units would produce more traffic than a single family
neighborhood. (Approximately 22 homes is the maximum that could be
developed based on underlying R-1 zoning due to the severe topography).
page 2
Fobruary 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
3. Error of Conclusion: Conclusion number 10 should be changed. The
conclusion recommends that a detailed geotechnical analysis be obtained for
the site as part of the final PUD. I believe that it is in public interest
and the developers interest to require that this report be provided before the
PPUD concept is approved.
The area is classified as class III (which is the most severe class) in all
three land stability categories (land slide, erosion, and earthquake) in the
King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio. The proposed western access roadway,
whicn is an extension of Jefferson Ave NE, and the southern access roadway
both traverse Class III hillsides that are sloped more than 40%.
The proposal indicates that the western access roadway is to be build to city
stardards which requires a pavement width of a minimum of 32ft. and a total
width with sidewalks of 50ft. It seems likely that, from an engineering
stardpoint, it may be impractical to build such a road. This roadway, in
combination with NE 23rd street, is the proposed emergency access to the
development. If it is impractical to build the roadway, then the proposed
PPUD would lack emergency access and would have to be altered to use Devil 's
Elboe for access or be denied.
The southern access roadway is shown as being build to driveway standards at
24ft . in width. It will probably be easier to build than the western roadway
due to it's lesser width, however it also traverses a class III hillside
sloped more than 40% which may be impractical to build. If it is impractical
to build this roadway, then the proposed PPUD would have to be altered to use
Devil 's Elboe or be denied.
In View of the importance of these two roadways to the viability of the
proposed PPUD, and in view of the class III conditions of the area, it is only
prudent and in the interest of all concerned, to establish if is safe and
practical to build them as early in the approval process as practical . Thus a
page 3
February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
detailed geotechnical engineering report, including stability of the proposed
western and southern roadbeds, along with design details of the road
construction, should be required before this PPUD is granted. This current
proposed PPUD concept does not make sense without documented safe and
practical access.
Furthermore, as proposed the location of the apartment units A, B, C, E, F, H
and I are all within approximately loft of the edge of class III hillsides
sloped more than 40%. It may be impractical to locate these units in their
proposed locations.
In summary, it is clear that the practicality and viability of the PPUD is
critically tied to the condition of the underlying soils. Thus it is prudent
to require detailed geotechnical studies before a PPUD concept, or any
development concept for this area, is considered or approved.
4. Error of Conclusion: Conclusion number 14, sentence number 7 and 8, state:
Jefferson could provide the primary access point and N.E. 23rd could
remain a gated emergency approach to the site. (Although this Office
would like to be informed of the authority to waive the minimum width
standards for an emergency access and what criteria were utilized). "
I believe that one of the most important functions of city government is to
provide and enforce safety rules. The Uniform Fire Code is clear with regard
to minimum standards for access roadways for fire apparatus. A driving
surface of not less than 20 feet of unobstructed width is the minimum
standard.
Allowing a development concept to proceed, without it meeting minimum fire
protection standards, is a very bad precedent and is certainly not in the
pub" ic interest.
page 4
February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
20 feet of pavement width cannot be provided on NE 23rd street due to the
limited overall right of way of only 20ft and the bulkhead/rockery
requirements that must fit within this 20ft. In addition an emergency access
at NE 23rd street, whether gated or not, would be a safety hazard and an eye
sore to the adjacent single family neighborhood, due to the high bulkheads
required on this proposed roadway and the corresponding disruption of the
local topography. Therefore NE 23rd street should not be considered for
emergency access.
5. Lack of Conformance to Renton Code. Renton Code section 4-2709,4,C states:
C. Geologic Hazard or Flooding. Development of areas on or near
sites where landslides or flooding have been known to occur or may
reasonably be expected to occur shall be subject to Section 9-1108 18
of the City Code entitled 'Plat Improvements and Development
Standards ' . "
Section 9-1108,18 states:
18. Flooding and Geological Hazard. If any portion of the land
within the boundary of a preliminary plat or approved record or
survey is subject to flooding or inundation, that portion of the
subdivision shall have the approval of the State of Washington
according to RWC 86.16 before the Building Department and the Hearing
Examiner shall consider such subdivision. If any portion of a
preliminary plat is subject to flooding, inundation or geological
hazard and the probable use of the property will require structures,
the Hearing Examiner shall disapprove the preliminary plat or that
portion of the subdivision so affected. Protective improvements may
be constructed as a conditional precedent to approval of the
preliminary/final plat. The Building Department may require the
subdivider to submit a geologist' s report if there is concern about
geological hazards. "
page 5
February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
The current proposed PPUD should be disapproved because there is no
documentation showing approval by the State of Washington under RCW 86.16, and
protective improvements have not been presented, and a geologist's report has
not been submitted. This area is class III (the severest class) in
landslide, erosion and earthquake damage potential , therefore it is prudent to
require this documentation before PPUD approval .
6. Lack of Conformance to Renton Code. Section 4-2709,1 ,A states:
A. Subdivision Requirements. If land or structures within a
proposed planned unit development are to be sold to more than one
person, partnership, firm or corporation or are to include the
dedication of land, then the proposed planned unit development shall
be subject to the short cr major subdivision proceedings in addition
to the requirements of this Section. "
The current proposed PPUD includes a dedication of 0.85 acres. Therefore it
must be subject to the subdivision proceedings in addition to the PPUD
proceedings. There is no documentation to indicate that this was
accomplished. The subdivision proceedings would involve a public hearing.
The current proposed PPUD should be denied since the subdivision proceedings
have not been completed.
7. Error in Recommendation. Recommendation number 2. states:
Approve the PPUD subject to the submission of the detailed engineering

February 18, 1986, M. Murray to Renton City Clerk, PPUD-015-84, R-014-84
The above recommendation should be changed to recommend a denial of the PPUD
as proposed. A denial is appropriate in view of the lack of documentation
regarding soil stability, the class III nature of the soils in the area which
may make it impractical to provide access to the area, and the lack of an
emergency access for fire vehicles that satisfies minimum safety standards.
Sincerely,
Mitch Murray

RE: Honey Creek Associates (R-014-84)/Notice of Appeal
Dear Council Members:
On behalf of the applicant with regard to the above referenced matter, we hereby
respectfully request that the City Council set a date for an appeal hearing with
regard to the decision of the hearing examiner dated January 17, 1986. This appeal
pertains only to that portion of the examiner's decision which pertains to the rezone
application. The appeal fee of $75.00 is enclosed.
The applicant's rezone request proposed that the Phase II portion of the property,
approximately the eastern half of the site, be rezoned to a combination of R-1
and G-1 zoning. The examiner has recommended that this portion of the subject
property be rezoned exclusively to the G-1 zone and his recommendation does
not include any R-1 zoning in this area.
The Council members are respectfully requested to consider the following errors
with regard to the recommendation on the rezone application:
1. The change in the recommendation is inconsistent with the original
recommendation of the examiner, without there being any significant change
in the evidence that is in the record. In the March 4, 1985 recommendation,
the hearing examiner concluded that the areas of proposed R-1 zoning "appear
generally compatible with similar single family designations made in the
Comprehensive Plan. The largest area is in the northeast quadrant of the
parcel and abuts either single family uses in King County or other undeveloped
parcels to the north. It encompasses the larger of the two plateaus on the
subject site. This district would be a logical extension of the single family
uses located east of the site, although not an extension at this time of a
Renton single family area."
2. The recommended change in the zoning by the examiner is inconsistent with
the purpose and intent of the remand as established by the City Council.
The original remand by the Council was for the purpose of having the examiner
review the new information and evidence relating to the PPUD. The rezone
was remanded solely due to the fact that there was a question regarding
the notice for the prior hearing and also the desire of the Council to keep
cc fir vlaiTON
rIAN 3 0 1986
IiY CLFRK_S OFFICE_)
Renton City Council
January 29, 1986
Page Two
the PPUD and rezone together in the process (please see attached City Council
minutes).
3. There is no substantial evidence in the record which establishes that the
eastern portion of the subject property contains any hazardous soils conditions
which warrant that the site be zoned G-1. The R-1 zones are proposed for
the areas generally around the plateaus in the eastern portion of the property,
as was recognized by the examiner in the above quoted portion of the March 4,
1985 recommendation. It is anticipated that the residential development
in Phase II will be clustered in the plateau area, thus avoiding the steeper
slopes where soils conditions may be more sensitive.
4. Soils analysis is a development related issue and should not be a zoning related
issue. At such time as a development proposal is considered by the City,
it would be prudent for both the City and the applicant to analyze further
the soils conditions in the eastern portion of the property. However, this
issue is unrelated to zoning and it is evident that the proposed R-1 zoning
for the eastern portion meets the zoning criteria as set forth in the initial
recommendation of the hearing examiner.
5. Denial of R-1 zoning for the eastern portion of the site is inconsistent with
the policy directives of the comprehensive plan for this area. The Plan
map clearly designates R-1 zoning for the general areas in the eastern portion
of the property that the applicant has proposed to rezone to R-1.
For the foregoing reasons, the applicant respectfully requests that the Council
reverse the hearing examiner's determination with regard to the zoning application
and that the rezone application be approved as submitted.
Very Truly Yours,
SHIDLER McBROOM GATES

to residents living in King County who were parties of record

Shinpoch explained rationale for remand of both applications ,
rezone and PPUD,

rezone should not be separated from the PPUD in the review

through the review process. The first, access, wasthoroughlyaddressed,
a traffic study was prepared outlining multi-access
alternatives, and the ERC had declared the access as non-
significant. The second, R-2 zoning surrounded by R-1 , was
determined to be the most environmentally sound. Third,
proposed density of 182 units, or four units per acre, is
less than allowed by any other zone. Fourth, the concerns
over the steep slope can be addressed through PUD review and
need not be addressed during rezone review. Mr. Tomberg
requested approval of the rezone in lieu of remanding it to
the Hearing Examiner , enabling density to be defined for the PUD.

Councilwoman Mathews noted that the applicant had chosen the
concurrent review process for annexation, rezone, and PUD.

of the review and holding the rezone in abeyance. Following
discussion, it was determined that the Committee report would

OFFICE OF THE HEARING EXAMINE,
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION.
APPL ICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES
FILE NO. R-014-84 & PPUD-015-84
LOCATION: Vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Approval of a revised joint land use application for
approval of rezone of 47.7 acres of property to G-1,
R-1 and R-2, and approval of preliminary PUD
multi-family development consisting of 72 units on
14.06 acres of land located on the south side of
Honey Creek.
SUMMARY OF ACTION: Building and Zoning Department Recommendation:
Approval with conditions.
Hearing Examiner Recommendation: Recommend
approval of Rezone and PPUD, with conditions and
covenants.
BUILDING & Z_ONING The Building & Zoning Department Report was
DEPARTMENT REPORT: received by the Examiner on December 2.3, 1985.
PUBL.0 HEARING: After reviewing the Building and Zoning 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 31, 1985, at 9:30 A.M. in the Council Chambers of
the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The fc[lowing exhibits were entered into the record:
Exhibit #1 - Original yellow file containing original
application, remand to the Hearing Examiner, and
various other documents pertaining to this proposal.
Exhibit #2 - Yellow file containing only information
on re-submittal showing reduced area.
Exhibit #3 - Proposed rezone map showing 47.7
acres, excluding the area known as Devils Elbow.
Exhibit #4 - PPUD site plan for Lot A, consisting of
14.06 acres.
Exhibit #5 Illustrative drawing showing conceptual
design.
Exhibit #6 - Letter from Mitch Murray to ERC dated
September 25, 1985.
Opening the hearing, the Zoning Administrator presented background information on the
project, and reviewed the latest revised information submitted by the applicant. Mr.
Blaylock presented such information as the rezoning of 47.7 acres into R-1 (29 acres), R-2
6 acres) and G-I (12.07 acres) classifications, and to allow a 72 unit Planned Unit
Development on the S.W. portion of the site on 14.06 acres. Due to emergency access
concerns the ERC reduced the size of the site, and when remanded from the City Council
it was felt both portions of the request should remain together. It was clarified the G-1
zone covering most of the steep slope in the ravine is not part of the PUD request and
therefore is not part of the open space considerations.

Page 2
Reviewing the rezone request, Mr. Blaylock referred to the various Exhibits stating the
property is not yet annexed into the City, the property complies with the guidelines of the
Comprehensive Plan, the elevation differential is approximately 60 ft., and access to the
site will be off Jefferson Avenue N.E., N.E. 21st and emergency access off N.E. 23rd
Street. The ERC reviewed the reduced proposal and Mr. Blaylock read their letter of
October 18, 1985 directed to the Hearing Examiner wherein they set out their
recommendations for approval.
Continuing with the review, it was noted when the original proposal was presented in
1984, the City did not have a Greenbelt Ordinance, only a policy. Staff does not have any
objection to allowing credit to the developer for the steep sloped areas because in the
PUD process for the eastern portion of the site the steep sloped criteria would probably
penalize the applicant greater than if the area remained in the greenbelt classification. It
is felt this rezone is appropriate for the site and water and sewers are available to the
area. Further discussing access, it was stated that using Sunset to Edmonds to N.E. 16th
Street or N.E. 23rd South to N.E. 21st Street, a large ravine cuts off the eastern portion
of the site thereby causing the City emergency response time to increase by almost 20
minutes, which the ERC stated is not acceptable.
In reviewing the PUD, it was pointed out originally there were 99 units proposed for the
western portion of the site, this having now been reduced to 72 units. The plan is to have
60 apartment-style units and 12 townhouse units to be located adjacent to the single
family area. There is approximately 1-1/2 acres of open space for recreation. A review
was given of the PUD criteria noting the site complies with the 4 acre minimum, 40% of
the site is to be maintained as open space, all structures are set back 25 ft. from the
single family residences, 25 ft. landscape buffer will have to be provided along the
western property line, and 4 acres of the 14.06 has slopes in excess of 15%. A brief
review was given of the Density Calculation, Slope Reduction and Use Reduction chart on
page 5 of the Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner. It is believed by staff the 72
units proposed are acceptable within the above-mentioned calculations. The only real
issue in the PUD is whether access is adequate to allow development in the southwest
corner of the site. The ERC feels it is adequate, provided access is from Jefferson
Avenue, N.E., N.E. 21st and emergency access from N.E. 23rd Street. Because the site
was reduced in units, this also reduced the proposed traffic by approximately 30%, to
about 430 vehicle trips per day. The ERC felt this figure would not be significant. Mr.
Blaylock advised that additional steps may have to be taken during construction to control
temporary erosion of the natural vegetation on steeper slopes, and hydroseeding may be
necessary. Mr Blaylock stated all of the G-1 area should be covered with a greenbelt
preservation covenant that limits cutting of vegetation and requires replacement of
vegetation from the erosion process. It was noted the Honey Creek trunk line has been
constructed and will soon be in an active state. Due to sandy soil and its possible effect
on the site, a geotechnical study had been recommended. A review of comments from the
various City departments was given. A recommendation for approval of the rezone was
requested, as well as approval of the PUD with conditions requesting the final PUD
include a detailed treatment plan be presented for greenbelt areas and detailed
improvement plans be submitted showing the location and construction standards for
Jefferson Ave. N.E., the extensions of N.E. 21st Street and emergency access on N.E. 23rd
Street. Mr. Blaylock had no further comments at this time.
The Hearing Examiner called for testimony in support of this application from the
applicant or their respresentative. Responding was:
Mel Easter
Johnson Braund Design Group
304 Main Avenue So., Suite 200
Renton, Wa. 98055
Mr. Easter stated the applicant agrees with the staff report as presented and feels they
can comply with all of the conditions set out therein. He advised the ERC determined
development should be limited to the S.W. corner of the site and in response the applicant
has relocated the lot line in direct conjunction with the zoning lines for clarification. The
total unit count was reduced and the building configuration is exactly as originally
presented with the exception of the elimination of the top story of the stack units at the
lower end of the site, thereby making them two-story buildings. Lot A now has a density
of less than 5 units per acre. Parking has been reduced which increased the total amount
of useable open space and recreational areas. Mr. Easter stated they will be providing
some type of recreation on the site but the type has not as yet been determined. He feels
the zoning is appropriate, complies with the Comprehensive Plan goals and policies, and
timing is right for this type of development.

Calling for further testimony in support of the application, there was no one wishing to
speak. Calling for testimony in opposition, wishing to speak was:
John Sargent
2016 Edmonds Avenue N.E.
Renton, Wa. 98056
Due to the impact of traffic on their present streets, combined with the condition of the
streets and erodible soil, Mr. Sargent is opposing this project. He questioned the route for
emergency access and stated the streets have 29 degree slopes. He feels run-off of water
will make the area even more of a hazard and slide area. He feels the other residents in
the area are also in opposition to this project.
Further wishing to speak in opposition to this proposal was:
Russell Bergeron
2807 N.E. 21st
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Bergeron lives at the end of Harrington Street. At that point the corner is a 90
degree turn onto 21st Street. He does not feel 21st Street can handle the full access
planned as it can not handle the current traffic. The street is very narrow. He suggested
placing a gate at the end of the street as it ends in front of a newly constructed residence.
Ben Berry, 2725 N. E. 23rd Street, Renton, Wa. 98056 also wished to testify in opposition
to this application. Mr. Berry said the roads in the area are already in poor condition and
with the projected 430 vehicle trips per day from this project would worsen the situation.
On 23rd, a one-way street, there are already people who park on the side of the street
thereby narrowing the roadway even more. He feels City staff should take a closer good
look at all of the streets that will be effected in that area before they allow a
development of this magnitude to continue.
Further testimony in opposition was given by:
Alton Benson
2125 Harrington N.E.
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Benson was concerned with the improvement of Harrington N.E.. He feels Jefferson
Street could easily handle the ingress and egress from the south. On N.E. 23rd there is
heavy vehicle as well as pedestrian traffic. Mr. Benson said the angles on the streets in
that area are hazardeous. People going north out of the new area would take the
Harrington Street route and head up to 21st or 23rd, thereby putting more pressure on
those streets. He suggested using the Devils Elbow area and eliminate traffic through the
residential area. Mr. Benson stated he would like to see a cost comparison on
improvements to 21st, Harrington, and 23rd as compared to the work that would have to
be done on widening the streets up to the Devils Elbow connection. He feels the Devils
Elbow suggestion would provide better access to northbound traffic and keep traffic off
the other residential streets.
Further testimony was received from:
Mitch Murray
2813 N.E. 23rd Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Murray made reference to previous letters he had presented on this matter, and
referring to Exhibit #6 stated the alternative access plan suggested would use the Devils
Elbow area. Referring to the assessors map and the possible widening of roads in the
area, Mr. Murray stated if the widening does take place to accommodate the PUD, there
will have to be some property acquisition along the proposed routes. He stated on 21st
Street there is 30 ft. right-of-way, Harrington Place is mostly 45 ft. and N.E. 23rd Street
the right-of-way is only 40 ft. and not 50 ft. as required by the code. Regarding
emergency access on N.E. 23rd, it was pointed out there is only a 20 ft. right-of-way and
a 15 ft. pavement. The fire code requires a 20 ft. pavement and the report to the
Examiner states the Fire Department, in this instance, has authorized a 15 ft. pavement.
Mr. Murray does not feel the Fire Marshall has the authorization to allow below minimum
standards. Referring to a cross-section of the west property line it was noted there
should be a 5 ft. bulkhead requried on both sides of the road as the roadway cuts into a
hill. Referring to the property in the R-1 zone, Mr. Murray stated more than half of the
land shown is land the ERC classified as unbuildable.
Honey Creek Associates
R-01L-84 & PPUD 015-84
January 17, 1986
Page ,a
He stated in the R-1 zone slopes range from 25% - 40%, making the statement in the
report that the G-i property contained the most sloped land, erroneous; feels the G-1
portion should be enlarged and the R-1 portion reduced to more accurately reflecL the
slopes of the site. He pointed out the northern and eastern boundaries are developed, not
undeveloped as stated by staff. A map folio put out by the State and referred to in the
City Code shows the ravine area as a class #3 which is the most severe class with regard
to erosion, potential earthquake damage and landslides, and recommended a professional
geotechnical study be made of the entire site to determine if there should be any
development at all. In conclusion, Mr. Murray stated he feels it would be a benefit to
develop the area to alleviate some of the nuisances currently in the area, but the current
proposal with its proposed access would degrade the neighboring areas. He is opposed to
the project, as it is currently presented.
Wishing to speak in opposition also was:
Tom Malmoe
12.105 S.E. 96th Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Malmoe clarified some of the information presented by staff such as the property
representated is in fact bordered by single family residences and not undeveloped as
reported by staff. Also, the impression is that the northern portion of the site may be
accessible at 95th Way but this is incorrect as there is no access currently available to
any of the northern borders of the subject property. Hillcrest School was mentioned as
being available, but this is incorrect as it has been closed for several years. Kennydale
School is available but such a distance away from the site that it will require bussing. Mr.
Malmoe supported Mr. Murray's statement that the site is classified as Class #3, and
possesses unstable soils that are prone to erosion. He pointed out the hazards that will be
created by the traffic added to their now burdened streets. He feels development in that
area would help with the undesirable conditions they now have such as motorcycles and
firing Jf firearms, etc., but does not feel this is the proper development, as proposed.
Pete Caple, 9628 - 123rd S.F_., Renton, Wa. 98056 testified in opposition to the proposal
for reasons stated by previous persons testifying, and in particular, due to the impact it
will have on the creek and the fish and game in the area. He feels by having further
access up the creek without any fencing or some other controls, the problem will worsen.
If access was provided via Devils Elbow, in the winter the conditions are so hazardous it is
going L:o cause monumental problems due to continuous icey conditions that remain due to
the shaded roadway. He also feels any access through Devils Elbow to 95th is going to add
to their problem of mud run-off, potholes, and already overburdened road.
George Pratt, 12116 S.E. 96th Place, Renton, Wa. 98056 spoke in opposition. He said the
Devils Elbow road is a sub-standard road, and should access to this proposal be provided
on that road it should be brought up to City standards. The topography in the area does
not permit the road to be brought up to standard. It has been asphalted on both sides by
the County and the City of Renton, and has no shoulders or marking lines. A geologist
has viewed the area and it has been classified as the Vashon Outwash, which is a sand with
norms,ly a layer of clay below. The sand in this instant area is about 60 ft. This is a class
3 area and he requested a geotechnical study to be made on both the Renton and King
County sides of the site.
Calling for further testimony, speaking in opposition to this proposal was:
Roger Fletcher
2509 N.E. 23rd Place
Renton, Wa. 98056
Mr. Fletcher lives in Weatherwood II which is a main traffic thoroughfare for traffic going
downhill to Edmonds. He feels the additional traffic is going to increase the speed with
which the traffic would come down the hill making it extremely hazardous. He
recommended traffic bumps on the road and a maximum speed limit of 20 mph.
Mrs. Wayne Oyler, 2132 Harrington N.E., Renton, Wa. 98056 referred to the staff report
and mention of access on Jefferson and questioned who was going to be responsible for
paying for the improvements. She referred to the opening of Jefferson, the curves in the
area roads, and expressed concern over the motorcycles that will be speeding causing
more of a hazard to pedestrians as well as vehicles.

Page 5
The Zoning Administrator, Roger Blaylock said the ERC did not feel additional traffic
improvements would be necessary beyond the actual development on-site. He said last
year the Public Works Department placed a 2 inch overlay on Harrington Avenue N.E.
coming from the south so there is a section of Jefferson south of the subject site,
approximately 150-200 ft. that should be resurfaced to induce people to go out that
direction rather than going north. He stated the ERC did not feel the additional traffic
would warrant off-site improvements, but the Hearing Examiner could make this a
condition of approval if he chose to do so.
Calling for additional comments, speaking again was Mel Easter. Mr. Easter said his staff
spent many months working with City staff to determine the appropriate access to this
development. The access from Devils Elbow was explored but staff felt this was not an
appropriate access. The access from Jefferson Street will be the major access, and it is
not their intent to introduce any more automobiles onto N.E. 21st beyond those that would
normally use that area. The improvements on Jefferson should welcome cars from that
access as opposed to the 21st Street access. He stated the applicant is aware of some
potential instabilities on the site but more geotechnical studies will be completed before
construction is begun.
The attorney for the applicant, John Hendrickson, Suite 505, Honeywell Center, Bellevue,
Wa. commented the zoning proposal is exactly the same as was considered by the
Examiner earlier this year. He reiterated the City Council did not object to the zoning
and an earlier appeal was not upheld. The matter was remanded back to the Examiner due
to a question of proper notification and it was felt both matters should proceed together
as opposed to becoming separate issues. Mr. Hendrickson reviewed the greenbelt area as
reflected on the Comprehensive Plan for this application stating it will be protected by
the PUD process. There will be no developement in the steep sloped areas - they will be
preserved as greenbelts. He stated the greenbelt will be preserved, and it is felt the
zoning is appropriate and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Mitch Murray commented the current proposal does not involve a PUD on the east side.
He feels it is important that the Hearing Examiner consider just what land can be
developed and its appropriate zoning. He noted the presentation today is different from
that of the first hearing.
Mike Gould, 12129 S.E. 96th Place, Renton, Wa. 98056 asked Mr. Blaylock to review for
him the method used to compute the vehicle trips per day for the proposal. He had no
further comments.
There was no one else wishing to testify and no further comments offered by staff. The
hearing closed at 11:30 A.M.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION:
The following report utilizes many of the Findings and Conclusions of the original report
of the Hearing Examiner issued on March 4, 1985. Changes in some of the Findings
reflect the modified proposal now subject to review.
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the
following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Honey Creek Associates, has requested approval of a classification
of approximately 47.7 acres of property, upon annexation, to R-1 (Single Family
Residential; Minimum lot size - 7,200 sq ft), R-2 (Duplex Residential), and G-1
General; Single Family Residential; Minimum lot size 35,000 sq ft). The applicant
has also requested simultaneous approval of a Preliminary Planned Unit
Development (PPUD) of 72 dwelling units on approximately 14.06 acres of the site.
2. The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act
SEPA) documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, the previous
Decision and remand in this matter and other pertinent documents was entered in
the record.
3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and SEPA (RCW 43.21C,
1971, as amended), a Declaration of Non-Significance has been issued for the
subject proposal by the Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the responsible
official. The determination was predicated upon the development of only the
acreage located south and west of Honey Creek.
Honey Creek Associates
R-014-84 & PPUD 015-84
January 17, 1986
Page 6
4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all City departments affected by the
impact of this proposal.
5. The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E.,
immediately south and generally east of 120th Place S.E. which is more commonly
known as Devils Elbow.
6. The subject site in unincorporated King County is just north of the north central
portion of the City. The applicant has applied for a concurrent annexation into the
City, together with a rezone of the property for residential purposes. Generally,
property annexed into the City is automatically classified G-1, a category which
permits large lot single family uses. Specifically one dwelling per every 35,000
square feet. State enabling law permits a jurisdiction to conditionally zone
property prior to its annexation. The zoning would then automatically become
effective upon annexation.
7. In a similar fashion, State law permits the underlying land use approval to occur
prior to annexation, again conditioned upon ultimate annexation. The applicant has
requested conditional approval of a PPUD for up to 72 dwelling units on the subject
site. The PPUD would be effective and binding if the site were eventually annexed
into the City. The applicant has reduced the number of units significantly since
the proposal was originally reviewed. The requested rezone, for the purposes of
this hearing, continues to cover the entire parcel.
The subject site was originally two separate lots and the applicant processed a lot
line adjustment through King County to redivide the property along a line
corresponding generally with the alignment of Honey Creek.
8. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the
subject site is located as suitable for the development of greenbelt, single family
and low density multi-family uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the plan. While not specific, a large portion in
the central area of the site is designated for greenbelt. This would appear to
generally coincide with the steep slope areas containing Honey Creek and its ravine
and tributary ravines. An area along the southern property line would appear to be
designated for the low density multi-family residential uses, reflecting that area's
close proximity to an existing R-2 zone. The remaining outlying portions of the
site would then be designated for single family uses in the Comprehensive Plan.
9.The subject site contains complex topographical features. Two relatively level
plateaus occur in the northeast and southwest quadrants of the subject site.
Running more or less diagonally through the site from the northwest to the
southeast is Honey Creek. The creek is situated in a steep walled ravine with
slopes ranging in excess of 56%. The subject site was an old quarry, and some of
the slopes had been altered in the past. An old road grade was cut into the site
from Devils Elbow to approximately the area of the proposed R-2 district.
10. The areas east and north of the subject site would remain in King County.
Development surrounding the site is mixed. Single family uses are located east of
the site, generally clustered in a number of single family subdivisions. South of the
subject site is a senior citizens housing development and duplex housing developed
during World War II. Single family housing is located west of the subject site.
11. The zoning districts within Renton, adjacent to the subject site, are R-1 west of
the subject site and R-2 south of the subject site. The break in zoning occurs at
the site's southern property line. For the most part, the R-1 district includes most
of the City west of the subject site, although other districts are embedded within
this very large R-1 district. The R-2 district south of the subject site is a
multi-block district within which is a P-i (Public/Quasi-Public) district containing
the Hillcrest elementary school grounds. A smaller R-1 district is located adjacent
to the southeast corner of the subject site.
12. There is no sewer service to the subject site currently. The new Honey Creek line
runs through the ravine in the center of the site and service would be off this line.
The line will probably be operational by the time the subject site is ready for
development.
13. Storm drainage from the subject site will be into Honey Creek. Water lines will
have to be extended to serve the subject site.

14. Due to the complex topography of the subject site, and given the existing
development pattern in the general area, access routes to developable portions of
the subject site are limited. The ERC required that access to the site be generally
from the southwest. Under that requirement primary access would be via
Jefferson Avenue N.E. and N.E. 21st Street, with secondary emergency access via
N.E. 23rd Street. Most of the public opposition revolved around the proposed
access and it's attendant impacts on the existing single family neighborhood and
the inadequate road network. A new concern raised in the course of the new
proceedings was the slide potential of the site. (See below).
15. The record indicates that both N.E. 21st and N.E. 23rd are substandard streets.
While this issue was raised previously, definitive information concerning street
width was still not forthcoming. The record remains unclear, the widths appear to
be between 20 and 45 feet, with a lesser paved width along most sections. Access
via N.E. 21st necessitates usage of Harrington P1. N.E. and N.E. 23rd, both
substandard streets, to gain access to northern arterial streets. Harrington is also
less than 45 feet and narrows to 25 feet at its northerly end - paved width less than
25 feet. Southerly travel from 21st could involve a circuitous route along
Harrington P1. - Harrington Circle - Harrington Avenue and then either Index Ave
or Harrington again. Then, across N.E. 16th to Edmonds. The Oylers, adjacent
property owners, have not completed an approved lot line adjustment which would
have provided a dedication of additional width along 21st. They oppose primary
access to the subject site along 21st and would be expected to withhold access
rights.
16. These substandard streets and circuitous routes are heavily utilized by residents
northwest of the subject site to gain access to the Sunset Boulevard shopping
areas. Likewise, residents south and east of the subject site utilize this circuitous
route in the opposite direction to gain access to I-405. As defined in the City's
Comprehensive Transportation Plan, these streets are solely intended for local
access. Their size, construction and maintenance also indicates local access
status. Neighborhood collectors per the Subdivision Ordinance and the
Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet - paved for 36 feet. The proposed opening of
Jefferson Ave does not raise as many concerns as does its linkup with 21st in the
southwest corner of the subject site. Residents along Harrington, 21st and 23rd
Streets are concerned that this would open an even more direct route through a
residential neighborhood, with narrow streets requiring left and right turns since no
through street is available.
17. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicts 60% of the PPUD
development's traffic will travel south from the project site toward Kirkland Ave
N.E. The remainder of the traffic from this area of the site would travel over
other roads north and west of the site.
18. The proposed access roads have grades between 10 and 15%. A proposed access via
Devils Elbow along the former quarry road in this alignment appears to have
similar grades.
19. Density calculations based upon the PUD formula were originally a subject of
dispute. The only potential area for dispute in the instant case might be over the
choice of contour interval. The agency with primary jurisdication, the Building
Department, appears to have made a reasonable determination in this selection. In
addition, it was not disputed.
20. The total number of units, barring slope, street and dedication deductions which
could be accommodated on those portions of the site for which the applicant has
requested R-1 zoning would be 48.36, while 72 units could be accommodated under
the applicant's R-2 request, for a total of 120.36 units. Dedications would reduce
the acreage by approximately .85 acres or 5.1 units, and street set asides would
reduce the acreage by 1.6 acres or 9.6 units. The slope formula used by the
Building Department, deducting the most acreage due to severe slope, would
reduce the development potential by 31.9% or 33.71 units. The total would permit
71.95 units which was just .05 units below the applicant's request of 72 units.
21. The potential 72 units are only those for the south or west side of the the main
creek area. No proposal has been submitted for the area east or north of Honey
Creek.

22. The proposal for the rezoning has not changed and includes property on both sides
of Honey Creek. The applicant proposes reclassifying approximately 6.0 acres to
R-2; approximately 29 acres to R-1 and approximately 12.7 acres to G-1. (See
attached map). The R-2 property would be located on the southwestern plateau
approximately 75 feet below the surrounding grade, approximately 190 feet north
of the south property line, and approximately 190 feet east of the west property
line. Three separate areas are proposed for R-1 zoning. One of the R-1 districts
proposed by the applicant would be approximately 'L' shaped. It is the property at
the extreme southwest corner of the subject site and would be bounded by R-1
zoning on the west and R-2 zoning on the south. That district would be
approximately 8.06 acres. The other proposed R-1 districts would be located on
the east side of Honey Creek. One area would be along the north end of the
subject site and would be approximately 16.14 acres. The other R-1 zone would be
along the eastern perimeter of the subject site and would be approximately 4.81
acres. The G-1 zone proposed by the applicant would include the stream bed of
Honey Creek together with a large percentage of the steep side hills and ravines
above Honey Creek, and tributary ravines.
23. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the
subject proposal by staff. The project with its 72 units would generate an
estimated 430 vehicle trips per day. Comparisons were drawn indicating that the
development of approximately 43 single family homes, the potential under single
family zoning on this site, would generate a similar amount of traffic.
24. The site is apparently subject to slides. Slides have occurred while the sewer line
was being installed in the creek bed, and other slides and sloughs have occurred in
the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek, both on and off the subject site.
The soils are sandy soils of Class III, making the site quite susceptible to erosion,
earthquake and landslide damage.
25. The proposed emergency access at N.E. 23rd Street has a proposed width of 12
feet, whereas the required minimum standard is 20 feet. Authority to waive the
requirement was not shown.
CONCLUSIONS
REZONE
1. The proponent of a rezone must demonstrate that the request is in the public
interest, it will not impair the public health, safety and welfare and in addition,
complies with at least one of the three criteria found in Section 4-3010, which
provides in part that:
a. The subject site has not been considered in a previous area-wide rezone or
land use analysis; or
b. The subject site is potentially designated for the new classification per the
Comprehensive Plan; or
c. There has been a material and substantial change in the circumstances in
the area in which the subject site is located since the last rezoning of the
property or area.
While the map and some policy elements of the Comprehensive Plan do not entirely
justify the requested zoning, the topographic isolation of the subject site would
appear to support portions of the request. The potential soils' problems would
appear to require additional information for those portions of the site not part of
the proposed PPUD.
Proposed R-2 District
2. The area that has been proposed for R-2 zoning does not appear to be located in
the area strictly designated for low density multi-family dwelling units per the
Comprehensive Plan. While the Comprehensive Plan designates the southern area
of the subject site for duplex-type housing stock, the area proposed is
approximately 200 feet north of the southern property line. The major rationale in
the Comprehensive Plan would appear to be that the area so designated is a
continuation of existing zoning patterns, that is, an R-2 zoning district is located
immediately south of the subject site. As proposed, the rezone is some 200 feet
north of the existing R-2 zone, and in fact, separated from it by proposed R-1
zoning. The request would carve out a new and independent R-2 zone in the midst
of single family and extremely low density single family zoning. But on the whole,
this does not seem unreasonable given the topographical separation of the various
areas.

January 17, 1986
Page 9
3. While there may be some non-compliance with the Comprehensive Plan evident on
the south boundary, the proposal provides reasonable separation on the west where
separately owned, single family zoned and developed uses are located. The
proposed R-1 zoning is a continuation of the existing zoning patterns and
reasonably complements it. So while the proposed location of the R-2 zoning does
not follow strict orthodox land use practices, the consequences of divergence are
not really a problem. The location is sufficiently isolated from adjoining properties
by it's unique topography to cause little concern about adverse or undue effects of
such a district on neighboring property. The plateau lies approximately 75 to 100
feet lower than the southerly properties, thereby creating a discrete environment
and neighborhood.
4. While the proposed location for the R-2 district would provide certain density
bonuses to the applicant, the zoning does not appear to adversely affect
neighboring properties and is compatible with those policies of the Comprehensive
Plan which look for topographical barriers to provide buffers between distinct
zoning categories. The bonus it may provide the applicant is obviously a trade-off
to protect the stream environment, while allowing the applicant reasonable
development of private property.
Proposed R-1 District
5. The three areas proposed for R-1 zoning appear generally compatible with similar
single family designations made in the Comprehensive Plan. But, given the distinct
geologic hazard idenitified on the State maps, Class III soils type, which identify
the site as very unstable, it may be premature to discuss the easterly side of the
stream where the applicant has not proposed any particular development. The
proposed PPUD for the westerly acreage permits hazards to be avoided by shifting
development. At present, that cannot be said for the easterly R-1 zones proposed.
Until the applicant can provide geotechnical studies demonstrating the suitablity
for development on the steeper areas and even the more gentle plateaus, the
zoning should be limited to G-1, the category automatically applied if the site
were annexed.
There are substantial steep slopes along the eastern edge of Honey Creek within
the perimeter of the two proposed R-1 areas, and R-1 zoning under the
circumstances is premature. If the site were G-1 instead of classified R-1 as
requested, then the zoning would be the same as those areas confined within the
steeper Honey Creek ravine, which appears appropriate. When the site's isolation
from emergency services is considered it does not seem at all unreasonable to
leave the site with G-1 zoning. The possibility for rezoning in the future is not
foreclosed and can be considered in light of changed conditions and additional
information pertaining to the geology of the site.
6. The last area proposed for R-1 zoning is the portion which wraps around the
proposed R-2 district on the west and south. This area is more-or-less "L" shaped.
It follows the western and southern property lines of the site. As discussed above
in the R-2 analysis, it continues the adjacent western R-1 district onto the subject
site and acts to buffer the less intense single family uses to the west from the
proposed R-2 zone. This area also marks that portion of the site which makes the
transition from the Highlands relatively level topography to the steep topography
adjacent to Honey Creek. These are the slopes above the proposed R-2 zone.
7. This R-1 zoning appears generally compatible with the designation in the
Comprehensive Plan and again, it continues the existing single family zoning
pattern west of the site to the site.
Proposed G-1 District
8. The G-1 zoning proposed for the Honey Creek stream course and ravine system
appears appropriate. Under current zoning practice in the City, G-1 provides the
least intense residential density criterium of any zoning district. It would be
compatible with the other proposed districts for the subject site, namely R-1 and
R-2. As proposed, it would serve to protect those areas designated greenbelt on
the Comprehensive Plan, and in that regard, it is quite compatible with the
Comprehensive Plan. The request actually would coincide with the zoning the site
would attain, if the Council took no prior action, since the property would
automatically enter the City with G-1 zoning. As indicated above, this G-1 zoning
would be contiguous with the G-1 zoning which the recommendation to deny the
easterly R-1 districts would create.

PRELIMINARY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
9. The development of the subject site as a PUD appears to serve the public use and
interest. The unique topography and environment of the subject site can only be
enhanced by clustering and designing around the steep slopes and Honey Creek.
The 72 units would not produce substantially more traffic than a single family
neighborhood. The topographical isolation would appear sufficient to avoid any
adverse impacts from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining
properties. At this stage the applicant has not provided a definitive plan for
housing types, only a schematic proposal as is required for Preliminary PUDs. The
housing would be clustered and encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be
left for open space purposes. Two story stacked flats would be located along the
eastern portion of the site while townhouse units would be located near the
southwest corner of the site closer to the developed areas of the City. The plans
appear a reasonable approach and should be approved. Final plans would have to be
more detailed and provide the requisite open space, recreation and building details.
10. The issue of slope stability cannot be ignored. While the site seems suitable from a
land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geological underpinnings of the site
could conceivably modify this belief. With the submission of the Final PUD the
applicant will have to present a detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by
independent engineers selected with the approval of both the Building and Zoning
and the Public Works Departments. The report shall include but not be limited to
information regarding: site stability/slope integrity: preservation of the ravine and
stream close Lo their current state: long term implications of development on
erosion potential: geologic hazard including earthquake analysis: site preparation
and restoration: and building techniques.
11. The PUD appears to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally
sensitive site, permits the applicant reasonable use of the site, which is private
property, and appears to protect the fragile environment. The applicant should be
required to provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property
to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such
an easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a
homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on the steep slopes
below the proposed PUD.
ACCESS
12. The access concerns of residents remain even with the scaling down of the
proposal. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but the
creation of a new defacto through street - the connection of Jefferson and 21st
which raises many concerns. The streets surrounding the subject site are not
collector roads, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. The
connection of Jefferson to Kirkland as •a through street will provide a less
circuitous access from the Sunset area to the west and I-405. While the small
residential neighborhood now serves as such a link, its narrow, partially paved
streets should not be made more attractive by a clear cross town route. Without
substantial upgrading of roads which require width improvements, property
acquisition and surface upgrading, the proposed access is inappropriate. It might
still be inappropriate even with upgrading due to its effects on the residents along
21st, Harrington PI, and 23rd, since these streets were never intended to carry
through traffic, and homes are located closer to the street than would normally be
the case along collector streets.
13. With the information presented, this Office is not convinced that the through
connection of Jefferson/21st would serve the public use and interest. As a matter
of fact the opposite appears true, it is not in the public interest. While it is
obvious that the inclusion of the roadway appropriately named Devils Elbow into
the City was purposely avoided to avoid maintenance responsibilities, access, at
least secondary access to the subject site if it is really needed at all, could be via
this route. It was the access method proposed at the annexation hearings before
the City Council and remained the applicant's original choice until the ERC
review, and the ERC review did not have the benefit of public input. Conflicting
figures submitted regarding potential road grade do not weigh more heavily for one
method over the other. The grades appear comparable.

Page t 1
14. The only potential reason for the connecting link is for the convenience of
emergency vehicles, but that should not be the sole criteria. Convenience in the
absence of necessity in the instance case is not persuasive. The proposed link will
generate additional use of substandard roads, exacerbate the wear on already
inadequate pavement and adversely affect a neighborhood. If Devils Elbow could
serve for emergency purposes, it should be considered. It still need not be annexed
into the City to serve such a purpose. A question remains - Why does the site need
two main approaches? Jefferson could provide the primary access point and N.E.
23rd could remain a gated emergency approach to the site. (Although this Office
would like to be informed of the authority to waive the minimum width standards
for an emergency access and what criteria were utilized). Many other complexes
such as Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe have one primary entry with an emergency
access which is gated, and some such as Forest Brook only have one entry point.
There does not seem to be any need to create the proposed link between Jefferson
and N.E. 21st, and certainly the impacts appear to outweigh the benefits.
15. If the connection between Jefferson and 21st is approved, the applicant should bear
the cost of upgrading the roads and acquiring additional right-of-way to provide
the additional width necessary, especially in light of the additional usage
anticipated. Local residents should not be required to bear the costs. As an
analogy, similar development of a more intense complex in the midst of existing
single family homes on substandard roads can be found in the CHG Sunpointe
Complex. Anticipating the possible consequences, all road agreements should
clearly define the full obligations involved.
16. This decision is not intended to affect the proposed annexation. This review and
analysis was handled as though the property were already included within the City.
No judgment is intended on the merits of annexation which will be considered by
the City Council after separate review and deliberation.
17. In conclusion, if the City Council should approve the annexation of the subject site,
the Council should consider zoning the subject site as outlined above and
represented on Exhibit #2, with the exception that the two easterly R-1 zones
should be permitted the G-1 zoning which would automatically attach upon
annexation.
18. The PPUD proposed by the applicant should be approved subject to the submission
of the detailed engineering report, the elimination of the connection and entry at
N.E. 21st, with covenants requiring the slopes on the west side of Honey Creek be
maintained as close as possible in their natural state, and providing a slope
easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property for maintenance purposes.
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council should:
1. Approve the requested zoning for the subject site subject to the submission
of a PUD for eventual development of the subject site, subject to
annexation of the site into the City, and as limited by the above language.
2. Approve the PPUD subject to the submission of the detailed engineering
report, the elimination of the connection and entry at N.E. 21st, provide
covenants requiring the slopes on the west side of Honey Creek be
maintained as close as possible in their natural state, and providing a slope
easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property for maintenance
purposes.

2. Hearing Examiner's Report, dated March 4,1985 (R-014-84,
PPUD-015-84) .
This letter is regarding the the Honey Creek area rezone and PPUD (R-014-84,
PPUD- 015-84).
I li' e near the subject area and I have been following the progress of the
appl ' cations over the last few years. I am very familiar with the area and
the Froposals submitted so far.
I strongly disagree with the proposed location of access to the area presented
in reference 1 . , which is still being considered as shown on Figure A, which I
obta ned from the Building and Zoning department on September 25, 1985.
I m et 'wi'th the Develop (Mick Santa, Mel Easter, etc. n September 24, 1985
to discuss my objections with the plans for access. I piesented the access
ideas shown on Figure B, which I believe are vastly improved over the plans
showr on Figure A. The Developers stated tome that they may be willing to
consider the new arrangement proposed by me (Figure B). However they are
concerned that the City of Renton Building and Zoning Department and/or the
ERC nay not approve my plan (Figure B).
Thus I would like to present my access plans to the ERC for consideration.
My plans (Figure B) differ from the old plans (Figure A) in the following ways:
1 . I have eliminated access by NE 21 Street. This was done to reduce the
amount of traffic from the PPUD that would go thru the single family
neighborhoods on NE 21st Street, Harrington Place NE, NE 23rd Street and
NE 23rd Place. Furthermore eliminating the NE 21st Street connection to
Jefferson Avenue NE reduces potential cross town traffic from the
highlands from using Jefferson Ave NE and NE 21st Street to get to I-405
via Harrington Place NE, NE 23rd Street and NE 23rd Place. In addition,
the Hearing Examiner's report (Reference 2 ) mentions concern with access
via NE 21st Street (page 10, paragraphs 15 and 17) .
2. I have eliminated emergency access by NE 23rd Street. This was done to
reduce the PPUD impact on the neighboring single family neighborhood.
In addition the proposed NE 23rd access was not up to fire code
standards because the paving width is only 15ft. There is not currently
sufficient right of way to widen it to more than 15ft pavement width.
This is because of bulkhead and planting strip requirements that must
fit within the existing overall right of way of only 20ft. )
3. I have eliminated the access roadway along the western property line.
This roadway would be very damaging to the residential environment of
the residential properties along the western property line due to the
noise generated by the traffic generated by the PPUD. In addition,
there is no requirement for this roadway since primary access to the
lower level can be adequately handled by the roadway along the southern
property line.
page 2
4.' 'I 'have provided 1 •gency access via SE 97th Stre (Devil 's Elbow).
The Devil ' s Elbow roadway is currently 18ft wide uvcr most of its
length. Sufficient right of way (60ft) exists such that it could be
widened 'to 20ft if it is deemed necessary. The Hearing Examiner's
Report (Reference 2) suggests that the Devil 's Elbow road should be
considered for emergency access (Page 10, paragraph 16) .
5. I have repositioned the northern most apartment unit (four apartments)
labeled A on Figure A. This was done to provide room for a culdesac.
Two of the four units have been attached to the southern side of unit B
on figure A. , the other two units from unit A were repositioned to the
western edge of unit D on figure A. These repositionings are all shown
on figure B.
6. I have repositioned apartment unit C on Figure A to a location next to
apartment unit G in order to make room for the emergency access roadway
to SE 97th Street.
If ycu have any questions please feel free to contact me.

F. APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OR OTHER
OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT:
1. Section 4-3014(C), Change of Zone Classification.
2. Title 4, Chapter 27, Planned Unit Development Ordinance.
G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1.The applicant, Honey Creek Associates, has requested a joint annexation and
rezone approval of 47.07 acres along with a preliminary planned unit
development approval of 72 units on 14.06 acres. The Hearing Examiner
conducted the initial public hearing for the two land use requests and upon
appeal the City Council has remanded the items back to the Hearing
Examiner to consider the reduced scope of the planned unit development and
the appropriateness of the rezone request. The City Council will conduct the
75 percent petition hearing for the annexation request. The following
analysis divides the two land use requests and applies the appropriate
criteria.
REZONE
2. The applicant is requesting the rezoning of 47.07 acres into the following
three classifications:
R-2 Multiple Family Residential - 6.0 acres
R-1 Single Family Residential - 29.0 acres
G-1 General Use - 12.07 acres
The requested rezone appears to be appropriate with certain modifications
based upon the review criteria.
3.The Hearing Examiner must consider the specific review criteria under
Section 4-3014(C)(1):
a. That substantial evidence was presented demonstrating the subject
reclassification appears not to have been specifically considered at the
time of the last area land use analysis and area zoning.
The property is being reviewed by the City of Renton under its
concurrent annexation and rezoning procedure. The property has not
been specifically considered by the City in either of its land use
analyses or area zoning. Thus, it appears to comply with this criteria.
PRELIMINARY REPORT T_ . HE HEARING EXAMINER
HJNEY CREEK ASSOCIATES, FILE NO. R-014-84 AND PPUD-015-84
DECEMBER 31, 1985
PAGE 3
b. That the property is potentially classified for the proposed zone being
requested pursuant to the policies set forth in the Comprehensive Plan
and conditions have been met which would indicate the change is
appropriate.
The Comprehensive Plan Map for the northeast quadrant identifies an
area in the southwest corner of the subject site as potentially low
density multiple-family. The central portion of the site, where Honey
Creek crosses from the southeast to the northwest, the Greenbelt
designation is applied. The eastern portion of the site is again divided
by a ravine that is part of the Honey Creek erosion pattern, and the two
plateau areas in the northeast and southeast portions of the subject site
are generally designated as single family residential.
The Comprehensive Plan provides the general guideline for the
development of any property. In this specific case, the primary issue is
the natural slopes that exceed reasonable limits where development
should be prohibited. It appears that these specific topographic
features were not considered in detail during the comprehensive
planning process. Instead the Comprehensive Plan generalized as its
basic intent that Honey Creek bisected the property. The applicant's
request generally follows the direction that the topographic details
would suggest. The southwestern plateau which is approximately 70
feet lower than the adjacent established residential areas to the south
and west is a reasonable area for development. The Honey Creek
ravine has not only created areas of localized development on the
subject site but created a problem with the availability of public
services. The Environmental Review Committee in their analysis
specifically limited development of this site to the southwestern
portion of the subject site. Emergency services were the critical
problem in that access to the eastern portion of the property was over
substandard roads and the response time was outside of acceptable
limits for both the Fire and Police Departments.
ISSL E: IS THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN THE EASTERN PLATEAUS AND THE
GREENBELT AREA APPROPRIATELY DESIGNATED IN THE REZONE
REQUEST?
The proposed R-1 area extends down the eastern slope of the Honey
Creek ravine approximately 200 feet from the crest. In that 200 foot
distance, the topography drops off approximately 100 feet. This would
suggest a slope in excess of 50 percent which should not be built upon.
The question is should development densities be granted to the steep
sloped areas at an R-1 density level of six units per acre? The
greenbelt policies as delineated under Section 4-745(D)(1)(b) prohibits
development on slopes greater than 40 percent. Looking at the
topographic map, we can see that the plateaus basically break at an
elevation of 375. Land areas that are above that elevation generally
have slopes less than 15 percent. Below that elevation, the slopes
exceed 40 percent except in the most northern portion of the subject
site where a wider bench occurs. In total it would appear that
approximately 16-1/2 to 17 acres should be designated in the G-1,
General Use, classification as a result of the natural slope limitations.
c. 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.
The subject site has never been zoned within the City of Renton.
Development has generally increased within the City adjacent to the
south and west of the subject site. Weatherwood II borders the site on
the west and housing developments from WWII border the site on the
south. Access can be provided by extending public streets into the
southwest portion of the site.

d. The final test to determine whether a rezone is appropriate is to
address the question of timeliness. The subject site appears to be the
next incremental piece of property as the City expands eastward in this
general direction. In fact, the site has been surrounded by other
developments because of limitations of slope and accessibility until this
time. This also extends into the realm of public improvements
specifically sanitary sewer and water. An appropriately constructed
sanitary sewer system has not been available until this last year.
Construction of the Honey Creek trunkline now makes the rezone and
development request timely on the subject site.
PRELIMINARY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
4. The applicant is seeking preliminary planned unit development approval
PPUD) to allow the construction of 72 units on a 14.06 acre site. The
development would include 60 apartment style units stacked in two story
buildings with the remaining 12 units constructed as townhouses in the
extreme southwestern corner of the subject site. The development will also
include approximately 1-1/2 acres of level open space for active and passive
recreation. Ultimate decision of recreational facilities has not been included
because the prospective market has not reached a final determination.
5. Minimum site area required in a PUD by Section 4-2701(1) is four (4) acres.
The subject site complies with this criteria.
6.The proposal must comply with a series of standards and development
criteria. The applicant, at this time, is not proposing to subdivide the
property for subsequent sale.
7.Approximately 40 percent of the site is retained in open space because of
topography. Steep ravines surrounding Honey Creek make that area almost
unbuildable for residential development. This complies with the minimum 20
percent requirement for outdoor open space.
8. Specific residential open space per dwelling unit will be shown with the final
design plans in the final PUD. Most of the outdoor open space has been
concentrated around the recreational activities in the southwest corner of
the proposal. Approximately 25 percent of the level plateau of 9.5 acres has
been retained for outdoor recreational space. It appears that, in the
conceptual stage, the proposal complies with this intent, but specific detailed
calculations will have to accompany the final PUD for approval.
9.The applicant has set back all of the structures so that a minimum 25 foot
landscaped buffer can be provided along the western property line which
abuts the single family residential area. In fact, that area will be left in
perpetual open space because the roadway extension for Jefferson Avenue
N.E. will bend slightly to the east and come down to service the planned unit
development. The only streets crossing the greenbelt would be the extensions
of N.E. 21st and N.E. 23rd Streets.
10. Building "J" is approximtely 95 feet from the western property line of the
proposed project. Single family residences are located to the west of the
project and Building "J" would have be located at least 100 feet from that
property line or comply with the specific height and size criteria. Building
J" appears to comply with that criteria.
11. Where a PUD is located adjacent to special areas such as flood plains, steep
slopes, or geological hazards, additional criteria are added. In this special
case, the site is specifically limited by its steep slopes. Approximately 4.0
acres of the 14.06 acre site has slopes in excess of 15 percent. The PUD
ordinance specifically calls out for a reduction in density if the average slope
is over 15 percent. The average slope is approximatly 29.99 percent by
utilizing the slope formula (S=100 x I x L/A).

HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES, FILE NO. R-014-84 AND PPUD-015-84
DECEMBER 31, 1985
P AGE 5
This slope was determined based upon using the 25 foot contour interval over
the 20.8 acres of sloped area. Based upon that calculation, the following
density calculations are appropriate.
Density Calculation, Slope Reduction, and Use Reduction
Zoning Class Area No. Units/Acre Total Units
R-1 8.06 6.0 48.36
R-2 6 12.0 72.00
SUBTOTAL 120.36
REDUCT IONS
1. Dedication 85 6 5.10
SUBTOTAL 115.26
2. R-1 for
Streets/20% 1.6 6 9.60
SUBTOTAL 105.66
3. Reduction for
Natural Slope 31.9%33.71
SUBTOTAL 71.95
The formula used to calculate natural slope across the site in the PUD
ordinance is problematic in that dependent upon which contour is utilized the
percentage of slope can vary. Staff calculations show that if we include the
dedicated area for the extension of Jefferson Avenue a reduction of 29.96
percent would be appropriate if evaluated under 5 foot contours. If evaluated
under 25 foot contours, only 27.3 percent would be appropriate. If the
dedication area was excluded from calculations, utilization of a 5 foot
contour would generate a natural slope of 31.9 percent. On the other hand if
we used a 25 foot contour, a slope of 29.87 percent could be calculated.
Thus, the project density on a subject site ranges from 71.95 units to 77.03
units. The applicant has proposed 72 units. This seems totally acceptable
based upon the accuracy of the calculations involved.
ISSUE:
12. THE PRIMARY ISSUE IS WHETHER ACCESS IS ADEQUATE TO ALLOW THE
DEVELOPMENT OF 72 UNITS IN THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE
SUBJECT SITE?
The Environmental Review Committee specifically reviewed this problem and
issued their declaration to allow only the 72 units (Phase I) "provided that
access to the subject property shall be provided from Jefferson Avenue N.E.,
N.E. 21st Street, and emergency access from N.E. 23rd Street."
Primary access to the subject property shall be provided from Jefferson
Avenue N.E. The secondary access will be provided from N.E. 21st Street
and emergency access will be provided from N.E. 23rd Street. Both Jefferson
Avenue N.E. and N.E. 21st Street shall be built to City standards. Jefferson
Avenue N.E. shall be dedicated from the southern property line northward to
connect with the right-of-way for N.E. 23rd Street. The property owner
shall provide a slope easement over all of the property line in between the
right-of-way for Jefferson Avenue N.E. and the western property line of the
subject site. The emergency access constructed with a right-of-way for N.E.
23rd Street shall be a minimum of 15 feet in width and constructed to Fire
Department specifications (ERC condition).

Traffic has been reduced by approximately 30 percent as a result of the
reduction in project size. The primary neighborhood concern is traffic
generation and circulation. The estimated 430 average vehicle trips will
access the site by going through established single family residential areas.
The ERC did not consider the traffic impact as significant and require an
environmental impact statement. The most interesting comparison of traffic
impacts occurs if we were to propose that instead of a multiple family
project of 72 units a 43 lot single family PUD was constructed. Both projects
would generate approximately 425 to 450 vehicle trips per day. This is based
upon standards from the Institute of Traffic Engineers.
13.The subject site still has a problem with the steep slopes and the possibility
of slope instability from the initial construction. Special measures may have
to be taken during construction to control the temporary erosion and
revegetate some of the steeper slopes. Extensive hydroseeding may be
necessary along with additional plantings and it would be appropriate for the
application, during the final PUD approval, to submit specific revegetation
and geotechnical plans for review by the staff and the Hearing Examiner.
14. Comments from the various City departments focused upon the problems of
storm drainage, sewage disposal, and access. Since the original application
was submitted early in 1984, the City has acquired the necessary easements
to locate the new Honey Creek sewer trunkline along the central ravine
shown running through the subject site. The City has constructed the main
sewer line and maintenance roadway along the bottom of the ravine. The
issue of available sewer has been resolved. Access can be resolved by
construction of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and the tie-in at N.E. 21st Street and
emergency tie-in at N.E. 23rd Street. The Environmental Review Committee
has specifically considered plans and approved those for the emergency
access at N.E. 23rd Street.
15.The ERC also required under their substitive authority, the additional
following conditions:
The specific type of dwelling unit whether it is a flat or townhouse style shall
be specifically delineated at the time of final PUD.
The applicant will provide on-site recreation in a proportion amount as
originally presented for the initial 185 unit complex at the time of final PUD
submission. The final PUD shall include a specific recreation plan showing
the type and location of recreational amenity based upon the market focus of
the ultimate development.
ISSUE: WHAT RECREATIONAL AMENITIES ARE APPROPRIATE?
The revised project does not detail any recreational features except for the
availability of open space. The ERC held that both active and passive
recreational amenities should be provided in the final development but
because a specific user had not been delineated by the market that a specific
recreation plan did not need to be submitted until the final PUD submission.
16. In conclusion the project appears to meet all of the PUD criteria and be in
the public interest.
H. DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
Based upon the above analysis, it is recommended that the Hearing Examiner
recommend to the City Council the following:
1.Approval of the rezone request, file R-014-84.
2.Approval of the preliminary PUD, PPUD-015-84, subject to the following
conditions:
a. Submission of detailed plans in the final PUD to include:
PRELIMINARY REPORT T HE HEARING EXAMINER

1) all residential open spaces;
2) compliance with Building "J" with setback and volume
requirements under Section 4-2709(2)(D);
3) a geotechnical study to specifically evaluate placement of
buildings along bluff line.
b. Detailed treatment plan for the greenbelt areas included restoration
and increasing on-site vegetation to stabilize the steep slopes.
c. Detailed improvement plans showing the location and construction
standards for Jefferson Avenue N.E., the extensions of N.E. 21st Street,
and the emergency access intertie on N.E. 23rd Street.

Form 182
In the initial review of this proposed Rezone/Planned Unit Development, the
Environmental Review Committee was advised by several City departments that
additional information would be necessary in the following areas:
1. Water, Water Courses
2. Traffic Impacts
3. Public Services (especially Fire)
4. Utilities
5. Recreation
A revised plan addressing some of these concerns was submitted to the Building and
Zoning Department on April 16, 1984. Based upon review of this plan, the following
observations can be made:
No development should be permitted on the east side of Honey Creek for five
5) years or until the City can provide water, sewer, and public safety services,
whichever occurs first.
Regarding traffic, approximately 782 Average Daily Trips can be expected to
result from this first phase development. Traffic as such should not be a major
problem. However, the specific access points and range of improvements must
be stipulated.
Related to traffic, the Fire Department has expressed concern about apparent
singular access to the southwest portion of the site from N.E. 21st Street and
Jefferson Avenue N.E. The revised site plan submitted indicates an emergency
access extending south from the end of the proposed cul-de-sac to Kirkland
Place N.E. An easement for this access must be secured and vroverly improved.

The Police Department earlier noted that full development (as originally
proposed) by the applicant would require an additional police car, approximately
4.5 more employees, and costs in excess of $100,000. By limiting development
to the west side, these increased burdens apparently will not be necessary.
An easement for a public trail along Honey Creek needs to be obtained as
advised by the Parks and Recreation Department. A sanitary sewer easement is
suggested as a possibility. Foot paths and basketball courts for on-site are also
advised to mitigate impacts upon the North Highlands Recreational Center.
As for utilities, the Honey Creek interceptor is to be installed and operational
prior to issuance of any building permits. An adequate storm drainage and
retention system must also be provided. The Utilities Engineering Division will
review such plans and monitor construction for compliance.
The subject site is located in an area designated "Greenbelt" on the City's
Comprehensive Plan. Much of the site is well over the 25% slope standard.
Although not in effect, the City's recommended policies suggest that in areas
of 25-40% slope, development should be limited to 25% site coverage. It would
appear that the schematic site plan is well within these limits. Toward this
end, future detailed plans are to include boundary lines designating the limits of
clearing and these should be surveyed on the site prior to initial clearing.

As part f the traffic analysis we would like the following Information:
1 . -
NE 23rd Street between Harrington Place NE and theproposeddevelopmentsiteshowsaright-of-way width of 20 feet. Our
question is,
is this not a more direct route in and out ofthedevelopmentsite? If so, can the 20-foot right-of-way be
expanded to 50 feet to match the existing roadway on NE23rdSt.?
2.
NE 21st Street between the development site and the west endoftaxlot134showsonlya30-foot right-of-way. Fifty feetisneededforacompleteroadwayentrancefromHarringtonPlace.
Please address this problem.
3.
All access roads to the development site are to be fullyimprovedcurbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting, etc.).
Confirm provisions for accesses at 122nd Ave. SE, SE 100th St. , Jefferson Ave.NE, 2lst Ave. NE or NE 23rd St. and show the limits of the access improvements.
The revised proposal for the Santa/Tomberg PUD, though easier for us to
serve, still presents some problems that need be addressed.
1.
The narrow roadways in the existing residential area are inadequate
to handle the estimated increase in vehicular traffic.
2. When the second phase of the development is constructed it will
necessitate the additional personnel and district (including a
vehicle).
i
3. Building will be numbered - West A-B-C, etc. and East A-B-C
4. Proper security devices on all doors requiring same.
5. Adequate site lighting.
6. What is the grade % for emergency access?

MEMORANDUM

FROM Jim Matthew, Fire Marshal
SUBJECT Response to Annexation, posal ECF - 014 -84/Rezone R-014-84/PPUD-015-84
Water Utilities
Current fire flow to this area is minimal for single family residence. A water distribution
main system would be required to provide larger flows for fire suppression. The average
fire flow required for a typical wood-frame building just under 12,000 square feet is 3000
gpm at 20 psi. All buildings 12,000 square feet or more would be required to be sprinklered.
Fire Response
Renton Fire Department response to the proposed area is anticipated to be from either
side of the ravine, depending on the location of the incident. Fire and aid incidents in
the southwesterly portion of the development would require response via Harrington or
Kirkland Avenue N.E. to Jefferson Avenue N.E. The estimated time of response from
the first-in fire company located at N.E. 9th and Harrington Avenue N.E. would be
two-three minutes. The response to the northeasterly portion of the development would
more than likely be via Edmonds Avenue N.E. to N.E. 27th, east on N.E. 27th to 122 Avenue
S.E., south on 122 Avenue S.E. to the development. Response time statistics are not
available to that area at present, however it is anticipated that they would be in excess
of four minutes, given the present condition of N.E. 27th, S.E. 97th, 120th Place S.E. or
Devils Elbow", as it is more commonly referred.
Alternative response routes would greatly increase the travel distance, thereby increasing
the response time. Response time to areas along Union Avenue N.E. inside the city are
in excess of five minutes at present.
If this annexation Is approved, an upgrading of the roadway to City of Renton street
standards should be required along S.E. 97th and 120th Place S.E. to provide safe vehicle
travel.
Scope of Annexation
Due to the irregular boundaries that would be created by this proposal, the scope of this
annexation should be increased to include the area bounded by the present city limits
on the west, S.E. 95th Way on the north, and the present quarter section line depicted
on the east.
Emergency Vehicle Access Roadways
Two means of emergency vehicle access are required for both sites. One of which may
be gated or secured in a manner approved by the Fire Chief.
The Fire Code requires all access roads in excess of 150 feet in length, be equipped with
an approved turnaround for fire vehicles. An outside turning radius of 45 feet is required
for parking or access roads. Access roads are required to be a minimum of 20 feet in
width.
In summary, the attached annexation and PUD is not approved, subject to changes with
sulrge,,ted and revised nlnns to he ctihmitted.
Access depicted on the revised site plan does not provide sufficient details to indicate how it
will connect to the present Kirkland Place N.E. Additional information is needed on proposed
grade of the access road. (Eight percent allowed without application to the Board of Public Works
for variance.) Access proposed should be an extension of the private drive and be open to the
public without barricades.
Cul-de-sac with planting islands will be required to be marked "Fire Lane No Parking" unless
islands are removed.
Detailed water utility and other fire protection required will be made at the time of the building
permit application.

expanded to 50 feet to match the existing roadway on NE 23rd

Re: Honey Creek Associates
P.P.U.D. and Rezone Application
Mr. Blaylock:
Pursuant to your telephone conversation with Mel Easter of Johnson Braund Design
Group regarding the issues discussed by the Environmental Review Committee on
October 9, 1985, please note the following:
1. Housing Type(s):
In order to determine the type or types of living units appropriate for this
site, a thorough market analysis will have to be performed. This study will
consider, among other things: geographic location, area demographics,
neighborhood real estate values, income levels, etc. The results of this
analysis are vital to the economic feasibility of the development and to the
overall success of the project.
2. On-Site Recreational Amenities:
Due to the significant reduction in the total units allowed, careful
reconsideration has been given to the financial feasibility of providing major
recreational facilities to serve the 72 units now proposed in the southwest
portion of the site. Until a thorough market analysis is done to determine the
appropriate unit types, a final decision on the amount and type of recreation
amenities is pre-mature. At such time that a market-type has been targeted,
suitable recreation facilities will be determined accordingly. Please note,
however, that at the present time a significant amount (approximately 34
acres) of forested land area will be preserved providing the opportunity for a
wide variety of outdoor recreational uses.

issues in these early stages of the design and review process for the reasons
described above. It continues to be our goal to develop a quality project for the

DATE: April 25, 1984
APR 2 5 1984
TO: Environmental Review Committee
BUILDING/ZONING DEPT,
FROM: Policy Development Department
SUBJECT: Revised Santa/Tomberg P.U.D. Site Plan
In the initial review of this proposed Rezone/Planned Unit Development, the
Enviror.mental Review Committee was advised by several City departments that
additio:ial information would be necessary in the following areas:
1. Water, Water Courses
2. Traffic Impacts
3. Public Services (especially Fire)
4. Utilities
5. Recreation
A revised plan addressing some of these concerns was submitted to the Building and
Zoning Department on April 16, 1984. Based upon review of this plan, the following
observE tions can be made:
No development should be permitted on the east side of Honey Creek for five
5) years or until the City can provide water, sewer, and public safety services,
whichever occurs first.
Regarding traffic, approximately 782 Average Daily Trips can be expected to
result from this first phase development. Traffic as such should not be a major
problem. However, the specific access points and range of improvements must
be stipulated.
0 Related to traffic, the Fire Department has expressed concern about apparent
singular access to the southwest portion of the site from N.E. 21st Street and
Jefferson Avenue N.E. The revised site plan submitted indicates an emergency
access extending south from the end of the proposed cul-de-sac to Kirkland
Place N.E. An easement for this access must be secured and properly improved.
Environmental Reviei nittee
April 25, 1984
Page: 2
The Police Department earlier noted that full development (as originally
proposed) by the applicant would require an additional police car, approximately
4.5 more employees, and costs in excess of $100,000. By limiting development
to the west side, these increased burdens apparently will not be necessary.
o An easement for a public trail along Honey Creek needs to be obtained as
advised by the Parks and Recreation Department. A sanitary sewer easement is
suggested as a possibility. Foot paths and basketball courts for on-site are also
advised to mitigate impacts upon the North Highlands Recreational Center.
As for utilities, the Honey Creek interceptor is to be installed and operational
prior to issuance of any building permits. An adequate storm drainage and
retention system must also be provided. The Utilities Engineering Division will
review such plans and monitor construction for compliance.
The subject site is located in an area designated "Greenbelt" on the City's
Comprehensive Plan. Much of the site is well over the 25% slope standard.
Although not in effect, the City's recommended policies suggest that in areas
of 25-40% slope, development should be limited to 25% site coverage. It would
appear that the schematic site plan is well within these limits. Toward this
end, future detailed plans are to include boundary lines designating the limits of
clearing and these should be surveyed on the site prior to initial clearing.

Q6L.0 REVISION 5/1982
i y410
Adilh
The proposed development of this area gives great concern to the Police
Department for the following reasons.
1) Roadways now existing cannot handle the large influx of traffic
that this project will generate.
2) Accessibility to the area will greatly hamper the law enforcement
task due to the deep ravine and no motor vehicle crossings from
one group of buildings to the other.
SCENERIO:
Officer A is charged with the responsibility of providing police services to the
R-7 and is in the easterly-most group of condos when he receives a call to
the westerly group. He must exit the area via SE 100th to Union and then to
Sunset to NE 12th to Kirkland Avenue NE to Jefferson and the entrance to the
westerly portion of the project. I feel that this is entirely unrealistic
and places both the officers and citizens in an undue hazardous situation.
If this project becomes a reality, I will recommend that an additional patrol
vehicle be manned and placed in service in the Highlands area. This will
necessitate 42 additional officers (to cover 24 hours) a vehicle and all
equipment.

Our comments on the above named project are essentially the same as they
were as of February 2, 1984 memorandum to the Environmental Review
Committee, with the following exceptions:
1. The Fire Department has agreed with the developer to accept a 15 foot wide
road access along Northeast 23rd Street as proposed. This road is to be gated
and to be used for emergency vehicles only.
2. The proposed interior roadways that require more than eight percent grade
are subject to approval by Board of Public Works.
3. Gate shall be used for an emergency access road rather than bollards.

P.U.D./Rezone Re-submission
Roger:
Attached please find (4) sets of the revised P.U.D. (development) plan, updated
density calculations, zoning plan and site cross section with landscape concepts.
Additionally, please find a super K reduction of the revised P.U.D. plan.
Following is a list of the revisions to the above referenced plans:

buildings A through F and one townhouse unit on Building J.
2. Reduced the parking stall count from 146 to 114.
3. Replaced the swimming pool, tennis court, and tot lot with an open space
area for active and passive recreation.
4. Added the new lot line with corresponding areas for each new lot.
5. Added the N.E. 23rd Street emergency only access.
Following are changes to the environmental checklist. The numbering system
corresponds to the checklist form:
I. Background
6. Reduced the total unit count from 185 to 72 units and eliminated the
formal recreation amenities.
II. Environmental Im pacts
2.(a) The now reduced traffic volumes will decrease automobile emissions
from the previous proposed development.

3.(b) The reduced number of parking stalls will in turn reduce the
amount of surface water runoff by providing more pervious
surface area.
4.(a, c) The elimination of 32 parking stalls along with the pool, tennis
court, and tot lot will increase the potential to preserve
existing vegetation and/or provide opportunity to introduce a
greater amount of new flora onto the site.
5.(a, c, d)The overall impact on fauna species and quantities should be
decreased due to the increase in vegetative cover, both
existing and introduced.
11. The impact on the population growth rate will be significantly
reduced as the development will add only 72 units, down from
185.
12. The project will affect housing availability by the addition of
72 residential units.
13. The traffic impact on both the surrounding community and the
site itself will be greatly reduced. The numbers in the
Traffic Impact Analysis" indicate the vehicle trips generated
by this development will be reduced from 1,480 to 576.
14.(a, b, c, d) Due to the elimination of the active recreational amenities
pool, tennis court, tot lot), a more significant impact may be
felt on local parks and recreational facilities. The impact on
schools as well as police and fire protection will be reduced.
It is our understanding that we can expect a public hearing date approximately 3
weeks after the 7 to 10 day City Staff review period. If you have any questions or
need additional information, please feel free to contact our office.

Re: Renton City Council action of August 26, 1985 concerning
Honey Creek Associates Appeal of Hearing Examiner's Decision
to dismiss Rezone and Preliminary Planned Unit Development
R-014-84 and PPUD 015-84
The Renton City Council at its regular meeting of August 26, 1985
concurred in the Planning and Development Committee report reversing
the decision of the Hearing Examiner dated June 7, 1985 (which had
dismissed proceedings) and remanded the matter to the Hearing Examiner
for consideration by him on the merits.
The Planning and Development Commitee report recommended that the
City Council find the dismissal of the applications was improper as a
matter of law because of lack of notice required by City Code
Section 4-3013(E) which amounts to a denial of the applicant's right
of due process. The report also stated that the Hearing Examiner's
finding of lack of diligent prosecution by the applicant is moot
because the applicant has now received approval of the lot line
adjustment from King County. Finally, the report stated that duplication
of proceedings which will exist by reason of the previous remand of
the application by the City Council will create some confusion in
the record, however, such confusion is not sufficient justification
for dismissal of the application.
At the time of scheduling of R-014-84 and R-015-84 before the Hearing
Examiner, all parties of record will be notified of the time and date
of the proceedings by the Building and Zoning Department.
Yours truly,
CITY OF RENTON

R-014-84, PPUD-015- 4 that dismissal of the applicants is improper since lack of

a denial of the applicant 's right of due process. Further,

Lincoln Property Ruth Larson, 714 High Avenue S. , representing Renton Hill
Landscaping - Community Association, requested a status report on the matter
Renton Hill of landscaping installation by Lincoln Property Company at
its development on Grant Avenue S. , constructed three years
ago. Mayor Shinpoch explained that the developer was required
to install the landscaping, and the condition was assured by
the requirement of a bond, which the city will call if the
developer does not comply. She will research the timing of
the matter and notify Mrs. Larson. Mayor Shinpoch also
advised contacting the Pacific Institute in response to an
earlier suggestion by Mrs. Larson to find a positive solution
to the cruising problem. A response is forthcoming.
Fire Department Sanford Webb, 430 Mill Avenue S. , expressed concern regarding
Response and fire hazards as a result of dry summer to apartment buildings
Training Center located close together. He noted emergency vehicles have
difficulty in maneuvering at the top of Mill Avenue South on
Renton Hill due to limited turnaround space. Mr. Webb
questioned City expenditure of $15,000 to study possible
construction of a local fire/police training center when a
training facility is already in operation in North Bend.
He also felt the City of Renton is too small to warrant
FBI training for its police chief. Mayor Shinpoch advised
that the Renton Fire Department is a fully-manned professional
unit whose members are in constant training to handle all
types of emergencies. She noted that response drills to
intentionally set fires are common in the program, turnaround
radius is required on City streets to provide space for
emergency vehicles, and fire hydrants are visibly marked
for access. The proposed training site, a consortium of
the four valley cities (Kent , Auburn, Tukwila and Renton) ,
will expand upon training offered by the state-run North
Bend facility, which deals mainly with hazardous waste
and chemical fire emergencies. The distance to North Bend
has been computed, and it has been determined that a local
facility, structured to meet training needs for day-to-day
emergencies, is more cost effective for the City.

June 7, 1985 dismissing the above referenced applications. The
Committee finds, and recommends that the City Council find that the
dismissal of the applications is improper as a matter of law because
of lack of notice required by City Code Section 4-3013 (E) which
amounts to a denial of the applicant ' s right of due process. Further-
more, the Hearing Examiner' s finding of lack of diligent prosecution
by the applicant is now moot because the applicant has now received
approval of the lot line adjustment from King County. Finally, the
duplication of proceedings which will exist by reason of the previous
remand of the application by the City Council will create some con-
fusion in the record. However, such confusion is not sufficient
justification for dismissal of the application.
Therefore, the Committee recommends that the City Council reverse the
decision of the Hearing Examiner dated June 7, 1985 by which these pro-
ceedings were dismissed, and remand the proceedings to the Hearing Ex-
aminer for _consideration by him on the m- s.

Qr Mr. Tim Hill 15 May 1991
King County Executive
King County Courthouse
M . Hill ,
T ank you for your letter of May 13 affirming receipt of my
1 tter and assignment of inquiry to Mr. Tanaka.
I think that you should know that the portion of the road shown
i photo 2 of my letter has caved in more and a new break in the
s wer line has occured. The city of Renton and the state
D partment of Ecology have been informed. I am sure that the
flow of raw sewage into May Creek will be stopped, however, the
problem of poor engineering and construction remains . It is
o ly a matter of time before another break will occur and
fulirther jeopardize the ability of May and Honey Creeks to
support native salmon populations.
I look forward to receiving Mr. Tanaka' s report.

SUBJECT: HONEY CREEK PUD PROJECT EMERGENCY ACCESS ISSUES
NORTHEAST 23RD STREET
Dear Mr. Hanis:
This letter responds to your letter (attached) regarding Honey Creek PUD project
emergency access issues (N.E. 23rd Street).
Please be advised that although a conceptual sketch was submitted by the project
proponent, and use of the 23 foot wide city right-of-way was approved on a conceptual
level at both the City staff and City Council level, there exists no "City approved
plans" for this project. There has also been no construction permit issued which would
allow construction in the City right-of-way.
In order to obtain a construction permit to build the emergency access road, the
proponent must formally submit to the City a complete set of design drawings, usually
as a part of his building permit application. The City Planning/Building/Public Works
staff will then review the design drawings in detail to make sure the proposal is
consistent with City Code and good engineering practices At this stage, buildability of
the proposal will be examined. The Planning/Building/Public Works Department
commonly requires an applicant to obtain temporary construction easements in cases
where it is apparent that construction will not be possible without encroaching upon
neighboring properties.
Only upon Planning/Building/Public Works approval of the design drawings (and
mylars must be signed and stamped by the appropriate City Division Managers before
they may be considered "approved"), can the applicant obtain a construction permit.
No work is allowed in City right-of-way without a construction permit.
As we have stated, the proponent of the Honey Creek PUD project has not yet formally
submitted design drawings for City review and approval. Although the proposed use of
the N.E. 23rd Street right-of-way as an emergency access had been approved in
principle, the applicant must go through the plan review and approval process before
constructing in the right-of-way. The City intends to uphold the property rights of all
adjacent residents during plan review for this project. The project proponent will be
required to obtain any needed temporary construction easements. If the proponent is
unable to procure such easements, it will be his responsibility to change his proposal or
alter his design in such a way that the property rights of the adjacent property owners
will not be violated.

CITY OF RENTON
CITY COUNCIL RECORD OF DECISION
APPLICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES/
SKIP JACOBSON
FILE NO.: PPUD-15-84
Vicinity of the 2200 Block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:Approval of a revised preliminary PUD application for a multiple-family
development with 72 dwelling units on 14.06 acres of land located on the
south side of Honey Creek.
The following report incorporates the Findings and Conclusions of the original report of the Hearing
Examiner issued on March 4, 1985,which was later revised in the Hearing Examiner's report of January 17,
1986. Changes in some of the findings reflect the modified site plan for the P.U.D.
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Skip Jacobson, requests approval of a revision to the Preliminary Planned Unit
Development (P.P.U.D) application for the Honey Creek P.U.D. The Honey Creek P.U.D. proposal
consists of 72 dwelling units on approximately 14.06 acres of property.
2. The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)
documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, the previous decisions by the
Hearing Examiner, and a revised site plan together with a remand and other pertinent
documentation are a part of the record for the application. In addition, documentation includes
decisions regarding on-site access.
3. The City Council, on April 14, 1986, adopted the recommendations of the Planning and
Development Committee, approving the recommendations of the Hearing Examiner, as amended,
to rezone the PUD site subject to: 1) submission of a final PUD; 2) annexation of the site into the
City; 3) dedication of a full 40-foot right-of-way on N.E. 23rd; 4) submission with a final PUD
application of a detailed geotechnical analysis; 5) submission of detailed plans for the final PUD
showing usable open space, recreation and building details; 6) provision of a slope easement to
the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the
subject site or portions of it were sold; 7) submission of a detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc.; 8) elimination of the connection and entry at
N.E. 21st Street; 9) the property zoned R-1 shall have no development pending the City being
provided detailed geotechnical information regarding site and site plan or PUD approval; and, 10)
acknowledgement that current plans are for conceptual approval of a PPUD and do not vest in the
applicant or assign any development rights on the subject parcel or property without
recommendations of City staff and approval by Council of the geotechnical studies called for
above.
4. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's Responsible Official, issued a Declaration
of Non-Significance on October 21, 1985. The Committee reviewed the revised request on
October 16, 1985 and determined that the original determination is valid for the proposed revisions
to the P.U.D. site plan.
5. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter on or between
April 24, 1984 and October 10, 1985 and in succeeding years as needed to resolve issues.
6. The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E., immediately south and
generally east of 120th Place S.E., more commonly known as Devil's Elbow.
7. The subject site was annexed to the City by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4095, enacted on
November 25, 1987.
8. The subject site is a portion of a 47.7 acre site rezoned by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4141,
enacted on March 24, 1988. The subject parcel received an R-2, Residential zoning classification
which is a low density multiple-family zone allowing 12.1 dwelling units per acre.
9. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as being suitable for the
development of greenbelt and low density multiple-family uses, but does not allow such
development without consideration of other policies of the plan.
10. The configuration of the existing site was created through a lot line adjustment in King County
approved in 1986.
11. A steep ravine is located adjacent to the property line running diagonally from the northernmost
point of the property to the southeast corner of the site. Honey Creek is located at the bottom of
this steep ravine.
12. Access to the subject site is limited due to the complex topography of the subject parcel and
adjacent parcel to the northeast and east, and given the existing development pattern in the
general area. Development surrounding the subject site is mixed. To the north and immediately
north/northeast and east are undeveloped parcels of property which includes the majority of the
ravine area and Honey Creek. To the east are single-family uses, generally clustered in single-
family subdivisions. The property south of the site is developed with senior housing and duplex
housing complexes developed during World War II. Finally, to the west, development consists of
single-family residences.
13. The site, at one time, was part of an old quarry. The relatively level plateau, on which the
development is proposed, is the result of the quarry activity. An old road grade was cut into the
site from Devil's Elbow to approximately the area of the subject site.
14. Sewer service will be available to the site via hookup to the Honey Creek interceptor sewer which
runs through the bottom of the adjacent ravine.
15. Storm drainage from the site will flow into Honey Creek, a fish spawning stream. Because of this,
biofiltration of surface water runoff should occur before storm drainage discharges into this stream.
16. Water lines will need to be extended from Harrington Avenue N.E. to serve the site.
17. Considerable discussion has taken place over the years on the issue of access to the site. The
public opposition to the development has focussed mostly upon site access, the inadequacy of the
adjacent roads, and the impacts of traffic at these access points upon the adjacent single-family
neighborhood. Both N.E. 21st Street and N.E. 23rd Street were found to be substandard streets,
for example. The now proposed access road off of Jefferson Avenue N.E. will have grades of 10%
to 15%. Devil's Elbow was dropped from consideration because of its grades as well as the fact
that it had experienced continued instability. The Public Works Department has determined that
Devil's Elbow is"not safe for either primary access or emergency access."
1E. In March 1985, the original PPUD application for this site was denied by the Hearing Examiner
based upon inaccurate density calculations. At that time, primary access was from Jefferson
Avenue N.E., with a second access on N.E. 21st Street. A 20-foot wide, gated emergency access
road was provided along N.E. 23rd Street. Following resubmittal in January 1986, the Hearing
Examiner recommended the elimination of the second access on N.E. 21st Street and also
required that the applicant bear the cost of upgrading these access roads.
1 1 With the elimination of the N.E. 21st Street access and the shifting of access to the south, the
Council required, at its meeting on April 14, 1986, the "...dedication of a full 40-foot wide right-of-
way alignment with N.E. 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue N.E. and the site, with an
engineering report and specifications for full street improvement as required by City Code."
Because of subsequent difficulties in acquiring the necessary right-of-way, the applicants, Honey
Creek Associates, asked the City in September, 1986 to assist them by starting condemnation
proceedings (at the owners expense) against the owners of the adjacent properties.
0. On April 4, 1988, Council approved Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84) which became effective
May 9, 1988 (Ordinance No. 4143).
21. In June of 1988, neighbors near the site supported the proposed Honey Creek PUD development
as an improvement that would "discourage crime, dumping, and motorcycle access in the area."
22. After the City began condemnation proceedings, this matter was later appealed to the courts by
one of the property owners whose property was being condemned. A Superior Court decision
issued on April 25, 1988 barred the City from using eminent domain to acquire a full right-of-way on
N.E. 23rd Street (it was felt that the City was using its powers to primarily benefit a private
applicant).
23. At another public hearing on the PPUD on June 19, 1989, the Council was asked to decide whether
to retain the approved PPUD requirement of two full access roads to the site or to reduce the
requirement to one access road along N.E. Jefferson with a twenty foot, gated emergency access
road on N.E. 23rd Street. The Council decided not to take action on this date.
24. At a subsequent meeting on July 24, 1989, the Council, in response to a request from the
applicant, passed a motion to amend the PPUD to eliminate its earlier requirement that the
applicant provide full street improvements including a 40-foot wide public right-of-way alignment
along N.E. 23rd Street. Instead, Council called for the road to be improved only for emergency
vehicle access using the twenty (20) feet of right-of-way that the City owns on N.E. 23rd Street.
That motion also asked the Public Works Department to review the adequacy of streets serving the
2-
southern exit from the site as well as look at safety issues on these streets and report back to
Council. Staff determined that these streets were designed for local access as defined in the City's
Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The size, construction and maintenance plans for these
streets also indicates local access status. Neighborhood collectors per the Subdivision Ordinance
and the Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet- paved for 36 feet.
25. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicted 60% of the PPUD development's
traffic will travel south from the project site toward Kirkland Avenue N.E. The remainder of the
traffic from this area of the site would travel north and west of the site.
26. Under the previous (1985) site plan, which had its primary access from N.E. 21st Street as well as
Jefferson, residents along these streets were concerned that ingress and egress and subsequent
improvements along these streets would open up an even more direct route through a residential
neighborhood. This concern has been reduced under the latest site plan (drawing dated 1-24-90,
see Exhibit "A") which limits primary access to Jefferson Avenue N.E. Traffic leaving the
development heading north under the revised proposal would now have to exit via Jefferson
Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. Traffic traveling southward would likely travel the same
route, but continue south on Edmonds Avenue N.E.
27. In June of 1989, Public Works evaluated whether N.E. 21st should be evaluated as an alternative to
N.E. 23rd Street. They concluded there was: 1) insufficient right-of-way; and 2) traffic will pass
through a single-family residential area.
28. On September 13, 1989, the Public Works Department reported back to the Council on
improvements it felt were necessary to ensure pedestrian safety due to increased traffic generated
by the subject proposal on September 25, 1989. This report was subsequently referred back to the
Planning and Development Committee for their consideration.
29 The Planning and Development Committee held several meetings to study this matter. On
December 11, 1989, the Planning and Development Committee recommended, and the Council
approved, the following street improvement conditions:
a.The developer will improve the road on its project to city standards from the main entrance
northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into
parking lots. It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated to the city. Sidewalks will be
provided on one side of the street.
b.The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject site to
Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but not be
limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole on this
short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground service to the
duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E. which would
be impacted by the removal of the overhead power and telephone conductors.
c.The developer will install the following school safety improvements:
1.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on the
west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E. with appropriate signing should be required.
2.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on
Harrington Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest
Elementary School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require
appropriate storm drainage.
30. Pursuant to this action, the applicant has proposed to use N.E. 23rd street as a gated emergency
access. Although the City owns 20 feet of right-of-way on the extension of N.E. 23rd Street, not all
of this can be used for improved roadway since a retaining wall has to be built along a portion of it.
The Fire Department, on March 21, 1990, indicated that there is sufficient right-of-way to build the
emergency access provided that the width of the paved portion of the right-of-way is not less than
18 feet wide. The applicants submitted revised plans on March 7, 1990 showing that this
requirement could be met. Further, the applicant retained Terra Associates, Inc. to evaluate the
adequacy of the proposed concrete retaining walls on either side of the roadway. The engineers
determined that the design shown for the roadway improvements could be accomplished.
31. Density calculations which were based upon the PUD formula were originally a subject of dispute.
With the revised PPUD plans, this issue is essentially resolved. The only potential area for dispute
in the current case might be over the choice of contour intervals used in calculating steep slopes
and the subsequent densities allowed. The Building and Zoning Department (now part of the
3-
Community Development Department) had primary jurisdiction for determining the density. It
appears the Department made a reasonable determination of the density in 1985. In addition, its
decision was not disputed at the time.
32. The total number of units, barring slope, street and dedication deductions which could be
accommodated on those portions of the site for which the applicant has requested R1 zoning
would be 48.36, while 72 units could be accommodated on that portion of the site zoned R2, for a
total of 120.36 units on the original 14.06 acre portion of the site currently under consideration.
Dedications would reduce the acreage by approximately 0.85 acres or 5.1 units, and street set
asides would reduce the acreage by 1.6 acres or 9.6 units. The slope formula used by the City
staff, deducting the most acreage due to severe slope, would reduce the development potential by
31.9% or 33.71 units. The total would permit 71.95 units which was just .05 units below the
applicant's request of 72 units.
33. The potential 72 units are planned only for that portion of the site lying to the south and west of
Honey Creek.
34. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the subject proposal
by staff in 1985. Using current standards, we would estimate that the 72 units of multi-family
townhouses and flats would generate approximately 29 school age children. This compares to an
estimated 26 school age children if the site were developed with an estimated 43 single-family
homes.
35 The project, with its 72 units, would generate an estimated 430 vehicle trips per day. Comparisons
were drawn indicating that the development of approximately 43 single-family homes (under
single-family zoning on this site) would generate, at 10.0 AWDTE per dwelling unit a similar amount
of traffic as 72 units at 6.5 AWDTE per dwelling unit (468 vehicle trips per day).
3E. The majority of soils found on the site are sandy soils of Class III. Such soils typically imply that
such a site would be susceptible to erosion, earthquake and landslide damage. Slides occurred
while the sewer line was being installed in the creek bed, and other slides and sloughs have
occurred in the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek, both on and off the subject site.
The applicant has addressed this by restricting their development to those portions of the site
having a mean average slope of less than 10 percent. In addition, the use of native vegetation
buffers on steep slopes should be provided to further reduce the likelihood of slides.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The development of the subject site using the PUD provisions of the Building Regulations would
appear to be in the public interest. The unique topography and environment of the subject site can
best be protected by clustering new development on those portions of the site that are less prone
to erosion or landslide damage and staying away from areas having steeper slopes such as along
Honey Creek. The 1982 PUD provisions allow such density clustering when it is in the public
interest. The proposed 72 multi-family units would not produce substantially more traffic than a 43
unit single-family residential development (permitted under the current zoning). The PUD appears
to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally sensitive site, permits the
applicant reasonable use of the site (which is private property) and appears to protect the site's
fragile environment better than most other uses except possibly a park or open space use. The
latter, however, would do little to police the site and reduce unauthorized use of the site by those
dumping litter, shooting off firecrackers, and driving motorcycles across it.
2. The topographical isolation of the site would also appear sufficient to avoid any adverse impacts
from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining properties. Whereas under the 1985
site plan, buildings in the southwest corner of the site were within 90 feet of the western and
southern property lines. Under the latest 1990 site plan, there is at least a 190 foot separation from
the nearest residential building to the southern or western property lines. The housing under this
latest site plan would be clustered and encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be left for
open space purposes.
3. Multi-family dwelling units at this location would allow for more variety and diversity in the existing
neighborhood and allow more housing choices for those who wish to reside in this part of the City,
be they existing or new residents. At this stage, the applicant has not provided a definitive plan for
the different multi-family housing types being proposed. Only a schematic proposal, as is required
for Preliminary PUDs, has been submitted at this time. A breakdown as to unit size, type and
number of bedrooms should be provided for all units and buildings in the PUD.
4. The issue of slope stability has not yet been adequately addressed. While the site seems suitable
from a land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geological underpinnings of the site need to
be more fully explored. With the submission of the Final PUD, the applicant will have to present a
detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers selected with the approval of
both the Department of Community Development and the Public Works Departments. The report
4-
shall include, but not be limited to, information regarding: site stability/slope integrity; preservation
of the ravine and stream close to their current state; long term implications of development on
slope stability; geologic hazard including earthquake analysis; plans for site preparation and
restoration, as well as building construction techniques that will minimize ground instability and/or
subsidence due to settling or erosion. The applicant should be required to provide a slope
easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and
responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such an easement would permit the PUD ownership,
whether a single entity or a homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on
the steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
5. The access concerns of residents remain even with the scaling down of the proposal from 120
units to 72 units. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but the creation of
a new defacto "through" street - connection along Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue
N.E. to N.E. 16th Street which raises concerns about safety to nearby residents and school age
children. The streets surrounding the subject site to the south were not designed as collector
streets, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. Even with the upgrading of
Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. with street improvements, and surface
upgrading, the proposed access to the site may pose some problems to nearby residents since
homes along these streets are located closer to the street than would normally be the case along
collector streets.
6 The applicant's latest proposal, using Jefferson Avenue N.E. for primary access and N.E. 23rd
Street as a gated emergency approach to the site, makes sense now that the City's Fire Marshal
has agreed to accept a roadway width of less than 20 feet on N.E. 23rd Street. Many other
complexes, such as Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe, have one primary entry with an emergency
access which is gated, and some, such as Forest Brook, only have one entry point. With the
elimination of secondary access and the changing of N.E. 23rd Street into emergency access only,
there no longer is a need to keep the previously proposed secondary access along N.E. 21st
Street.
7. The site plan for the Preliminary PUD now appears reasonable and should be approved. (NOTE:
Plans for the Final PUD would have to follow the layout shown in the Preliminary PUD but also be
more detailed and show the requisite open space, recreation areas, and building design details.)
DECISION:
B;_ised upon the above analysis, the Council hereby approves the preliminary P.U.D., File PPUD-015-84,
subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide a detailed geotechnical report with the submission of the final PUD
application. The report shall address site stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine and
stream close to their existing state; analyze the long term erosion potential by the development;
identify geologic hazards including earthquake analysis; provide specifics on site preparation and
restoration; and identify appropriate building techniques for the site.
2. The applicant shall construct and maintain gated secondary emergency access along the right-of-
way of N.E. 23rd Street which shall be designed to the satisfaction of the Fire Marshall and Public
Works Director, with a minimum width of 18 feet of paving.
3. The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid
problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such an easement would permit

SPECIAL Mayor Clymer presented Volunteer Service Awards to Gloria Tozer and Jerry
PRESENTATION Hess for completion of 500 hours of service to the Renton Police Department,
Police: Volunteer Service noting great pride in the service that the volunteers provide to the City.
Awards Chief Alan Wallis commended both recipients for their service to the
department, and called attention to the importance volunteers play in each
department. Chief Wallis reported that Gloria Tozer began her service with
the department in May of 1987; and Jerry Hess in August of 1988.
Police: Introduction to K- Chief Wallis introduced Griz, the newest K-9 member of the Renton Police
9 Member Department. Griz is a 14-week-old German Shepherd who will be trained to
assume the duties of Toby, the current police dog, upon his retirement.
Councilwoman Nelson expressed deep-felt gratitude to both Toby and police
officers responsible for the apprehension of the suspects involved in
burglaries of the Renton Flower Shop and Cugini's Florist.
PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published
PUD: Preliminary, Honey in accordance with local and State law, Mayor Clymer opened the public
Creek, PPUD-015-84 hearing to consider the Honey Creek Preliminary Planned Unit Development
site plan approval. The subject site consists of 14.06 acres of land located on
the south side of Honey Creek in the vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson
Avenue Northeast.
Don Erickson, Chief of Current Planning for the Community Development
Department, reported that this hearing is a continuation of discussion held at
the June 4, 1990, public hearing regarding site access, and to discuss
consideration of the amendments to the preliminary PUD site plan, which
were initially approved by Council on April 4, 1988. The subject site is
14.06 acres which, under R-2 zoning, would allow an average density of 12.1
dwelling units per acre. The applicant is proposing 72 units on the site or an
average density of 5.89 dwelling units per acre, which is less than the current
6 units per acre allowed under the R-1 zone.
Mr. Erickson described the proposal to shift some of the townhouses to the
south; and advised that of the 13 total buildings, eight contain two-story
townhouses and five contain apartments. He indicated that traffic circulation
pattern has changed, and the road on the south is now restricted in the
revised PUD and will only be used for emergency access. This pattern
creates a cul-de-sac with islands for recreational space up to the upper area.
Utilities are available to the site; and because of isolation of the site, it would
not impact the adjacent single family neighborhoods to the west. Mr.
Erickson reported that during initial review, residents in the area had
expressed the desire for development to curb trash dumping and motorcycle
riding in the vicinity of the subject site.
June 18, 1990 enton City Council Minutes Page 184
f In response to Council inquiry pertaining to time constraints for completion
of the development, Mr. Erickson noted that the newly adopted PUD
ordinance requires a two-year period to submit the final PUD and a showing
of progressive development; and further noted that Council may wish to
consider a development agreement similar to that of Victoria Hills to assure
timely completion of the project.
Responding to further inquiry, Larry Springer, Planning Manager, reported
that traffic exiting the site would utilize Harrington Avenue NE, and the
developer is required to bring the streets to City standards by installing street
lights and sidewalks to improve safety for area residents.
Audience comment was invited. Reatha Andersen, 1908 Harrington Circle
N.E., Renton; Don Brewer, 10218 - 65th Avenue South, Seattle, owner of
rentals located at 2011 Jefferson Avenue NE at the entrance to the site;
Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton; Virginia Hiramatsu, 2805 NE
23rd Place, Renton; Howard Coupman, 2809 NE 23rd Place, Renton; Diane
Coupman, 2809 NE 23rd Place, Renton; Brett Scott, P. O. Box 2752, Renton,
property owner near subject site; addressed various concerns which are: 1.)
Volume of traffic onto Harrington Avenue and Jefferson Avenue; 2.)
Construction of emergency access road, NE 23rd Street, in close proximity to
existing homes; 3.) Grade and width of emergency access roadway; 4.)
Possible increased traffic flow onto Kirkland Avenue in order to access the
Highlands Business District. It was also requested that the emergency access
roadway be widened to City standards to allow for additional traffic flow
into proposed development, and if the roadway is to remain an emergency
access road and gated, that a chain link gate be installed to restrict pedestrian
traffic.
Henry Jacobson, 13701 S.E. Allen Road, Bellevue, representing Honey Creek
Associates, discussed the 18-foot emergency access which has been revised to
a full 20-foot width. NE 23rd Street will be an extension of Harrington
Avenue NE, which will have street lights and sidewalks, thereby meeting
safety requirements. Mr. Jacobson further noted that the grade and
vegetation located along the proposed roadway will minimize any noise
impact, but still allow for full visibility.
Larry Springer, Planning Manager, recommended approval of the revised
Honey Creek PPUD-015-84 as proposed by staff. (Staff report available in
City Clerk's office.)
In response to Council inquiry regarding relocation of NE 23rd Street at least
20 feet away from existing residential property lines, Mr. Jacobson reported
that due to instability of the ground, relocation of the road would create an
unsafe condition. He advised that the roadway was designed on an existing,
stable road bed. Responding to concerns from abutting property owners as to
potential damage to their property during construction of the roadway, Mr.
Jacobson expressed willingness to discuss the matter of construction easements
with the abutting property owners.
MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY MATHEWS,
COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler expressed concern about relocating the
roadway toward the slope area, thereby endangering the stability of the
slopes, and further requested that as much vegetation be preserved as
possible. MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY MATHEWS,
COUNCIL APPROVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS CONTAINED
IN THE CITY COUNCIL RECORD OF DECISION, WITH THE
ADDITIONAL CONDITION THAT THE AREA BETWEEN THE
PROPERTY LINE AND THE NEW ROADWAY BE DENSELY
LANDSCAPED WITH AS MUCH NATURAL VEGETATION AS POSSIBLE
KEPT IN THAT AREA SO YOU CANNOT SEE THROUGH THE
LANDSCAPING TO THE ROAD, THAT TIME LINES BE IDENTIFIED IN
THE ORDINANCE, AND THE MATTER BE REFERRED TO WAYS AND
MEANS COMMITTEE.*
For the record, Councilwoman Zimmerman reported that she and her
husband own property in the 1700 block of Harrington Avenue NE. She
indicated concern regarding the traffic impact generated from the
development to the duplex neighborhood along Harrington Avenue NE in the
adjacent area, and asked that the matter be reviewed by the Planning
Commission.
June 18. 1990 enton City Council Minutes Page 185
Responding to Councilman Stredicke's inquiry as to usage of one-way metal
teeth embedded in private roadways, Public Works staff agreed to review the
matter.
In response to further Council inquiry regarding the benefits of private
versus public access to the site, Mr. Springer recommended that the roadway
be City owned, signed, enforced, and maintained. •ROLL CALL: 3 AYES;

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published
PUD: Preliminary, Honey in accordance with local and State law, Mayor Clymer opened the public
Creek, PPUD-015-84 hearing to consider the Honey Creek Preliminary Planned Unit Development.
The subject site is 14.06 acres of land located on the south side of Honey
Creek in the vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson Avenue Northeast.
Larry Springer, Planning Manager for the Community Development
Department, presented a chronology of the project which began in late 1984.
Mr. Springer reported that the Planning and Development Committee had
directed staff to prepare a report and recommendation for final action on the
project. Staff presented three options: (1) reject the redesigned emergency
access only proposal for NE 23rd and thereby deny the proposed Honey
Creek PPUD; (2) approve the redesigned emergency access only proposal for
NE 23rd and thereby approve the proposed Honey Creek PPUD, and refer
the matter to Ways and Means for action; (3) accept the staff recommendation
for revised access to the project, and thereby approve the proposed Honey
Creek PPUD including: emergency access only for NE 23rd Street;,
emergency access only for the road along the south side of the project;
relocate three buildings northward onto the lower part of the site adjacent to
the other units. The matter would then be referred to Ways and Means for
preparation of an ordinance and set June 18th as a public hearing date where
Council can hear testimony on topics other than the access.
Upon Council inquiry regarding the revisions and removal of landscape
materials, Don Erickson, responded that a considerable amount will be
preserved in its natural state. Mr. Erickson noted that there was a
cooperative effort with staff, the developer, and other departments in making
the revisions to the original plan.
Council President Mathews asked if current code and PPUD requirements
were being applied to this project since it was originally started in 1983-84
and has not received approval. Mr. Springer referred to City Code Title 4,
Chapter 15, Sections 11, 12, 13 regarding timelines on planned unit
developments and noted that the new code should be added as an amendment
to the recommendations offered by staff in the report submitted to Council
prior to final of the project. He noted that the letters from the Fire Marshall
and Public Works Department had been received concurring that the
redesigned emergency access meets the requirements presented to the
Planning and Development Committee in December 1989.
Council asked for clarification regarding the subject for discussion pertaining
to the PPUD. Staff verified that the public notice specifically stated that the
public hearing was on the access of the Honey Creek project. Council
President Mathews reiterated that the access issue is the only type of
testimony to be heard before Council at this time.
Comment from the audience was invited. Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd
Place, Renton, stated his opposition to the redesigned access. Mr. Murray
noted concerns regarding the allowance of less than 20 foot width for the
proposed emergency access; no allowance for gravel or drainage material; no
guardrails along the road; the right of way below minimum standards. He
recommended Devil's Elbow as the alternative for access which could be
stabilized and also serve as a bike corridor and access to the sewer pump
station at the base of the area. He requested that the revised access be denied
because it is inappropriate to take action without a review by the hearing
examiner as an independent analysis to clarify whether it meets code and
allow public to have input.
Virginia Hiramatsu, 2805 NE 23rd Place, Renton, stated that she is not
opposed to the development itself but believes that the public would be better
served with the plans as presented by Mr. Murray.
Howard Coupman, 2809 NE 23rd Place, Renton, reiterated points made by
Mr. Murray regarding Devil's Elbow as an possible alternative and stated his
opposition to the current redesign.
John Sargent, 2016 Edmonds Avenue NE, Renton, property owner next to the
subject site stated that he felt there should be more negotiations. He
expressed concerns regarding the need for retaining walls due to the unstable
ground along the creek bed and the necessity for a wider emergency access
road.
Henry Jacobson, 13701 SE Allen Road, Bellevue, representing Honey Creek
Associates, addressed the 18 foot access. He noted that the emergency access
through the main entrance is a full 20 feet wide, and is an extension of a
June 4, 1990 nton City Council Minutes Page 164
City street that would be on Harrington. It is a full City-wide street that has
lights and sidewalks. It is designed to be safety conscious and has good
visibility. He also noted that there are three different accesses to the
development, and he has spent many hours working with the City to achieve
beneficial results. He stated that he disagrees with the Devil's Elbow
alternative presented by Mr. Murray.
Bob Tomberg, 5611 - 119th SE, Bellevue, owner of the subject property,
stated that he has worked on this project for six years; it has not been a rapid
decision. There has been a lot of negotiation on both sides and he believes
this is a good compromise for all concerned. He reiterated that Devil's Elbow
is not a viable alternative for this project which is the opinion of experts
from the City and County and other professionals. In his opinion, the
emergency access on 23rd is not necessary but provided as an extra benefit to
the development. He stated that the project as recommended by staff meets
all the requirements.
I John Best, 3337 - 259th Place, Issaquah, representative of Burnside
Construction Company, who is purchasing the property to develop, noted that
his company has a long history in development of quality neighborhoods. He
stressed that the access as shown, especially the primary access, is adequate in
and of itself in providing alternative emergency access. He stated that he is a
developer who has had a long track record with successful projects on the
east side.
Randy Corman, 2216 Harrington Place NE, Renton, stated that after
reviewing the staff recommendations to City Council, he disagreed with the
report regarding the traffic route. He referred to Item 25 and 26 regarding
the traffic flow through the neighborhood stating that this route through a
single family neighborhood would be heavily impacted and recommended that
further study be done on street improvements in the neighborhood or scaling
down on the proposed number of units.
Further Council discussion followed regarding the number of chained fences
for emergency access within the City and the number of times these accesses
have been used in emergency situations. Glen Gordon, Fire Battalion Chief,
responded that the City has approximately 15 chained emergency accesses and
in 20 years, these have been seldom used.
Councilman Edwards asked why the NE 23rd emergency access is necessary
when there is a southerly access. Mr. Gordon explained that the road splits
inside the development and if the south road is blocked, emergency vehicles
cannot access the development. Therefore, there should be two separate
accesses to the development.
Councilwoman Zimmerman asked whether approval of the access as presented
would give approval of the site plan. Mr. Springer explained that if the
emergency access on 23rd is approved, that means the PPUD is approved as
shown and then the final PUD could be started. Another public hearing
could be held to discuss other items including relocation of buildings and
modification of the site plan.
Upon Council inquiry as to the redesign of the site plan, Mr. Springer
answered that it was the result of combined efforts of the Planning and
Development Committee and Mr. Jacobson, the potential purchaser of the
PUD. Mr. Jacobsen redesigned the project and resubmitted it with the
changes of the relocation of the three buildings.

MOTION CARRIED.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Versie Vaupel, P.O. Box 755, Renton, requested Council advance to Old
Advancement Requested Business to discuss the North Soos Creek Annexation. MOVED BY
MATHEWS, SECONDED BY EDWARDS, COUNCIL SUSPEND THE
REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS AND ADVANCE TO OLD BUSINESS,
NORTH SOOS CREEK ANNEXATION. CARRIED.
Annexation: North Soos Ken Nyberg, Director of Community Development Department, introduced
Creek (Fairwood) Nancy Laswell Morris, Chief, Long-Range Planning, and Fred Fortine,
Senior Planner, who presented a report on the relation of the Growth
Management program to the North Soos Creek project and the pros and cons
of the North Soos Creek Annexation for taxpayers in Renton.
Referring to a map which showed sphere of influence, potential annexation
boundaries and areas where city services are provided, Ms. Laswell Morris
explained the current way planning is done in the city through an inter-
jurisdictional planning puzzle between the city and county which includes
transportation, land use, housing, utilities, and capital facilities. She reported
that the Growth Management Bill mandates five major elements in growth
management planning which are land use, housing, capital facilities plan
municipal land uses such as parks, etc), utilities and transportation. She
stated that growth management mandates a balanced approach as compared to
an isolated plan for the City. Ms. Laswell Morris explained a balanced
system under the growth management which incorporates the five elements in
relation to needs and the infrastructure capacity. Under this plan, the City
becomes the focus with a series of four sectors radiating from the City, thus
the North Soos Creek area becomes much more related to the City of Renton
relative to planning. She further explained that under growth management,
primary goals are an urban/rural boundary; concurrency, which is finance as
you go with a focus on transportation; consistency between jurisdictions; a
mandatory allocation of population growth in which the State will assign
populations to the jurisdictions; and allocation of municipal land uses.
Ms. Laswell Morris noted that according to the growth management act, the
City would be required to analyze the North Soos Creek area because it
would be within the City's eastern urban growth boundary, with the
possibility of a southern boundary between Renton and Kent. Also, there
would be an infrastructure analysis of expansion of City services such as
transportation, water, sewer, storm water; and an analysis of municipal land
uses such as library, fire, police, parks, and public works. Because of the
annexation study by the City, certain elements of growth management have
already been studied which include land use, housing, capital facilities,
utilities and transportation.
Ms. Laswell Morris presented the pros and cons in the areas of political
influence, financial impact, land use, and municipal services. She then
explained the general overview of the work program from June 1990 to
November 1991 which included an immediate work program from June to
October 1990 of public information, fact cards, public workshops and
statistically valid surveys of both Renton residents and NSC residents. She
presented the administration's recommendation to go forward with the work
program and bring back to Council in October 1990 a go/no go decision
based on facts, surveys of both groups, workshops and other community
input. She explained that if the Council decides to go forward, then
boundaries would have to be set for all, a portion, or larger than the initial
study. In this particular time frame, an election in November 1991 would
determine the annexation issue with an effective date of annexation on
January 1, 1992. The reason for the November election is due to the timing
of the work program, fiscal considerations and the cost of the election.
CHRONOLOGY
Honey Creek PPUD
March, 1985 Hearing Examiner denied the original PPUD based on an
inaccurate density calculation.
January, 1986 Hearing Examiner recommends approval of a 72 unit
PPUD having primary access off of Jefferson Avenue NE,
and emergency access only off of 20 foot wide ROW at
NE 23rd Street.
April and May, 1986 Council generally concurs with Hearing Examiner's
recommendation, but requires that the secondary access at
NE 23rd Street be on a full 40 wide public ROW with full
City standard improvements.
September, 1986 Honey Creek Associates requests City assistance in
acquiring additional ROW to comply with the condition to
widen NE 23rd Street.
October, 1987 City agrees to proceed with condemnation for 20 feet of
NE 23rd Street ROW, but notifies the developers that it
will be at their expense.
April, 1988 A King County Superior Court decision prohibits the City
from using eminent domain to acquire ROW to primarily
benefit a private applicant.
July, 1989 Applicant requests that Council reconsider its requirement
that NE 23rd Street be upgraded to a full 40 foot wide
street. Council concurs, but requests information from
Public Works regarding impacts on Jefferson Ave NE,
and from Fire Department regarding the adequacy of a 20
foot wide ROW for emergency access only along NE 23rd
Street.
December, 1989 Planning and Development Committee accepted staff
reports regarding access, and some potential modifications
to the site plan. The Committee directed staff to prepare
a report and recommendation for final action at Council
public hearing.
COUNCIL OPTIONS
Honey Creek PPUD
o Reject the redesigned emergency access only proposal for NE 23rd and thereby
DENY the proposed Honey Creek PPUD.
o Approve the redesigned emergency access only proposal for NE 23rd and
thereby APPROVE the proposed Honey Creek PPUD. Refer the matter to

CITY OF RENTON
CITY COUNCIL RECORD OF DECISION
APPLICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES/
SKIP JACOBSON
FILE NO.: PPUD-15-84
Vicinity of the 2200 Block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:Approval of a revised preliminary PUD application for a multiple-family
development with 72 dwelling units on 14.06 acres of land located on the
south side of Honey Creek.
The following report incorporates the Findings and Conclusions of the original report of the Hearing
Examiner issued on March 4, 1985, which was later revised in the Hearing Examiner's report of January 17,
1986. Changes in some of the findings reflect the modified site plan for the P.U.D.
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Skip Jacobson, requests approval of a revision to the Preliminary Planned Unit
Development (P.P.U.D) application for the Honey Creek P.U.D. The Honey Creek P.U.D. proposal
consists of 72 dwelling units on approximately 14.06 acres of property.
2. The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)
documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, the previous decisions by the
Hearing Examiner, and a revised site plan together with a remand and other pertinent
documentation are a part of the record for the application. In addition, documentation includes
decisions regarding on-site access.
3. The City Council, on April 14, 1986, adopted the recommendations of the Planning and
Development Committee, approving the recommendations of the Hearing Examiner, as amended,
to rezone the PUD site subject to: 1) submission of a final PUD; 2) annexation of the site into the
City; 3) dedication of a full 40-foot right-of-way on N.E. 23rd; 4) submission with a final PUD
application of a detailed geotechnical analysis; 5) submission of detailed plans for the final PUD
showing usable open space, recreation and building details; 6) provision of a slope easement to
the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the
subject site or portions of it were sold; 7) submission of a detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc.; 8) elimination of the connection and entry at
N.E. 21st Street; 9) the property zoned R-1 shall have no development pending the City being
provided detailed geotechnical information regarding site and site plan or PUD approval; and, 10)
acknowledgement that current plans are for conceptual approval of a PPUD and do not vest in the
applicant or assign any development rights on the subject parcel or property without
recommendations of City staff and approval by Council of the geotechnical studies called for
above.
4. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's Responsible Official, issued a Declaration
of Non-Significance on October 21, 1985. The Committee reviewed the revised request on
October 16, 1985 and determined that the original determination is valid for the proposed revisions
to the P.U.D. site plan.
5. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter on or between
April 24, 1984 and October 10, 1985 and in succeeding years as needed to resolve issues.
6. The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E., immediately south and
generally east of 120th Place S.E., more commonly known as Devil's Elbow.
7. The subject site was annexed to the City by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4095, enacted on
November 25, 1987.
8. The subject site is a portion of a 47.7 acre site rezoned by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4141,
enacted on March 24, 1988. The subject parcel received an R-2, Residential zoning classification
which is a low density multiple-family zone allowing 12.1 dwelling units per acre.
9. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as being suitable for the
development of greenbelt and low density multiple-family uses, but does not allow such
development without consideration of other policies of the plan.
10. The configuration of the existing site was created through a lot line adjustment in King County
approved in 1986.
11. A steep ravine is located adjacent to the property line running diagonally from the northernmost
point of the property to the southeast corner of the site. Honey Creek is located at the bottom of
this steep ravine.
12. Access to the subject site is limited due to the complex topography of the subject parcel and
adjacent parcel to the northeast and east, and given the existing development pattern in the
general area. Development surrounding the subject site is mixed. To the north and immediately
north/northeast and east are undeveloped parcels of property which includes the majority of the
ravine area and Honey Creek. To the east are single-family uses, generally clustered in single-
family subdivisions. The property south of the site is developed with senior housing and duplex
housing complexes developed during World War II. Finally, to the west, development consists of
single-family residences.
13. The site, at one time, was part of an old quarry. The relatively level plateau, on which the
development is proposed, is the result of the quarry activity. An old road grade was cut into the
site from Devil's Elbow to approximately the area of the subject site.
14. Sewer service will be available to the site via hookup to the Honey Creek interceptor sewer which
runs through the bottom of the adjacent ravine.
15. Storm drainage from the site will flow into Honey Creek, a fish spawning stream. Because of this,
biofiltration of surface water runoff should occur before storm drainage discharges into this stream.
16. Water lines will need to be extended from Harrington Avenue N.E. to serve the site.
17. Considerable discussion has taken place over the years on the issue of access to the site. The
public opposition to the development has focussed mostly upon site access, the inadequacy of the
adjacent roads, and the impacts of traffic at these access points upon the adjacent single-family
neighborhood. Both N.E. 21st Street and N.E. 23rd Street were found to be substandard streets,
for example. The now proposed access road off of Jefferson Avenue N.E. will have grades of 10%
to 15°A°. Devil's Elbow was dropped from consideration because of its grades as well as the fact
that it had experienced continued instability. The Public Works Department has determined that
Devil's Elbow is"not safe for either primary access or emergency access."
18. In March 1985, the original PPUD application for this site was denied by the Hearing Examiner
based upon inaccurate density calculations. At that time, primary access was from Jefferson
Avenue N.E., with a second access on N.E. 21st Street. A 20-foot wide, gated emergency access
road was provided along N.E. 23rd Street. Following resubmittal in January 1986, the Hearing
Examiner recommended the elimination of the second access on N.E. 21st Street and also
required that the applicant bear the cost of upgrading these access roads.
19. With the elimination of the N.E. 21st Street access and the shifting of access to the south, the
Council required, at its meeting on April 14, 1986, the "...dedication of a full 40-foot wide right-of-
way alignment with N.E. 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue N.E. and the site, with an
engineering report and specifications for full street improvement as required by City Code."
Because of subsequent difficulties in acquiring the necessary right-of-way, the applicants, Honey
Creek Associates, asked the City in September, 1986 to assist them by starting condemnation
proceedings (at the owners expense) against the owners of the adjacent properties.
20. On April 4, 1988, Council approved Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84) which became effective
May 9, 1988 (Ordinance No. 4143).
21. In June of 1988, neighbors near the site supported the proposed Honey Creek PUD development
as an improvement that would "discourage crime, dumping, and motorcycle access in the area."
22. After the City began condemnation proceedings, this matter was later appealed to the courts by
one of the property owners whose property was being condemned. A Superior Court decision
issued on April 25, 1988 barred the City from using eminent domain to acquire a full right-of-way on
N.E. 23rd Street (it was felt that the City was using its powers to primarily benefit a private
applicant).
23. At another public hearing on the PPUD on June 19, 1989, the Council was asked to decide whether
to retain the approved PPUD requirement of two full access roads to the site or to reduce the
requirement to one access road along N.E. Jefferson with a twenty foot, gated emergency access
road on N.E. 23rd Street. The Council decided not to take action on this date.
24. At a subsequent meeting on July 24, 1989, the Council, in response to a request from the
applicant, passed a motion to amend the PPUD to eliminate its earlier requirement that the
applicant provide full street improvements including a 40-foot wide public right-of-way alignment
along N.E. 23rd Street. Instead, Council called for the road to be improved only for emergency
vehicle access using the twenty (20) feet of right-of-way that the City owns on N.E. 23rd Street.
That motion also asked the Public Works Department to review the adequacy of streets serving the
2-
southern exit from the site as well as look at safety issues on these streets and report back to
Council. Staff determined that these streets were designed for local access as defined in the City's
Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The size, construction and maintenance plans for these
streets also indicates local access status. Neighborhood collectors per the Subdivision Ordinance
and the Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet-paved for 36 feet.
25. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicted 60% of the PPUD development's
traffic will travel south from the project site toward Kirkland Avenue N.E. The remainder of the
traffic from this area of the site would travel north and west of the site.
26. Under the previous (1985) site plan, which had its primary access from N.E. 21st Street as well as
Jefferson, residents along these streets were concerned that ingress and egress and subsequent
improvements along these streets would open up an even more direct route through a residential
neighborhood. This concern has been reduced under the latest site plan (drawing dated 1-24-90,
see Exhibit "A") which limits primary access to Jefferson Avenue N.E. Traffic leaving the
development heading north under the revised proposal would now have to exit via Jefferson
Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. Traffic traveling southward would likely travel the same
route, but continue south on Edmonds Avenue N.E.
27. In June of 1989, Public Works evaluated whether N.E. 21st should be evaluated as an alternative to
N.E. 23rd Street. They concluded there was: 1) insufficient right-of-way; and 2) traffic will pass
through a single-family residential area.
28. On September 13, 1989, the Public Works Department reported back to the Council on
improvements it felt were necessary to ensure pedestrian safety due to increased traffic generated
by the subject proposal on September 25, 1989. This report was subsequently referred back to the
Planning and Development Committee for their consideration.
29. The Planning and Development Committee held several meetings to study this matter. On
December 11, 1989, the Planning and Development Committee recommended, and the Council
approved, the following street improvement conditions:
a.The developer will improve the road on its project to city standards from the main entrance
northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into
parking lots. It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated to the city. Sidewalks will be
provided on one side of the street.
b.The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject site to
Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but not be
limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole on this
short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground service to the
duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E. which would
be impacted by the removal of the overhead power and telephone conductors.
c.The developer will install the following school safety improvements:
1.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on the
west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E. with appropriate signing should be required.
2.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on
Harrington Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest
Elementary School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require
appropriate storm drainage.
30. Pursuant to this action, the applicant has proposed to use N.E. 23rd street as a gated emergency
access. Although the City owns 20 feet of right-of-way on the extension of N.E. 23rd Street, not all
of this can be used for improved roadway since a retaining wall has to be built along a portion of it.
The Fire Department, on March 21, 1990, indicated that there is sufficient right-of-way to build the
emergency access provided that the width of the paved portion of the right-of-way is not less than
18 feet wide. The applicants submitted revised plans on March 7, 1990 showing that this
requirement could be met. Further, the applicant retained Terra Associates, Inc. to evaluate the
adequacy of the proposed concrete retaining walls on either side of the roadway. The engineers
determined that the design shown for the roadway improvements could be accomplished.
31. Density calculations which were based upon the PUD formula were originally a subject of dispute.
With the revised PPUD plans, this issue is essentially resolved. The only potential area for dispute
in the current case might be over the choice of contour intervals used in calculating steep slopes
and the subsequent densities allowed. The Building and Zoning Department (now part of the
3-
Community Development Department) had primary jurisdiction for determining the density. It
appears the Department made a reasonable determination of the density in 1985. In addition, its
decision was not disputed at the time.
32. The total number of units, barring slope, street and dedication deductions which could be
accommodated on those portions of the site for which the applicant has requested R1 zoning
would be 48.36, while 72 units could be accommodated on that portion of the site zoned R2, for a
total of 120.36 units on the original 14.06 acre portion of the site currently under consideration.
Dedications would reduce the acreage by approximately 0.85 acres or 5.1 units, and street set
asides would reduce the acreage by 1.6 acres or 9.6 units. The slope formula used by the City
staff, deducting the most acreage due to severe slope, would reduce the development potential by
31.9% or 33.71 units. The total would permit 71.95 units which was just .05 units below the
applicant's request of 72 units.
33. The potential 72 units are planned only for that portion of the site lying to the south and west of
Honey Creek.
34. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the subject proposal
by staff in 1985. Using current standards, we would estimate that the 72 units of multi-family
townhouses and flats would generate approximately 29 school age children. This compares to an
estimated 26 school age children if the site were developed with an estimated 43 single-family
homes.
35. The project, with its 72 units, would generate an estimated 430 vehicle trips per day. Comparisons
were drawn indicating that the development of approximately 43 single-family homes (under
single-family zoning on this site) would generate, at 10.0 AWDTE per dwelling unit a similar amount
of traffic as 72 units at 6.5 AWDTE per dwelling unit (468 vehicle trips per day).
36. The majority of soils found on the site are sandy soils of Class III. Such soils typically imply that
such a site would be susceptible to erosion, earthquake and landslide damage. Slides occurred
while the sewer line was being installed in the creek bed, and other slides and sloughs have
occurred in the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek, both on and off the subject site.
The applicant has addressed this by restricting their development to those portions of the site
having a mean average slope of less than 10 percent. In addition, the use of native vegetation
buffers on steep slopes should be provided to further reduce the likelihood of slides.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The development of the subject site using the PUD provisions of the Building Regulations would
appear to be in the public interest. The unique topography and environment of the subject site can
best be protected by clustering new development on those portions of the site that are less prone
to erosion or landslide damage and staying away from areas having steeper slopes such as along
Honey Creek. The 1982 PUD provisions allow such density clustering when it is in the public
interest. The proposed 72 multi-family units would not produce substantially more traffic than a 43
unit single-family residential development (permitted under the current zoning). The PUD appears
to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally sensitive site, permits the
applicant reasonable use of the site (which is private property) and appears to protect the site's
fragile environment better than most other uses except possibly a park or open space use. The
latter, however, would do little to police the site and reduce unauthorized use of the site by those
dumping litter, shooting off firecrackers, and driving motorcycles across it.
2. The topographical isolation of the site would also appear sufficient to avoid any adverse impacts
from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining properties. Whereas under the 1985
site plan, buildings in the southwest corner of the site were within 90 feet of the western and
southern property lines. Under the latest 1990 site plan, there is at least a 190 foot separation from
the nearest residential building to the southern or western property lines. The housing under this
latest site plan would be clustered and encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be left for
open space purposes.
3. Multi-family dwelling units at this location would allow for more variety and diversity in the existing
neighborhood and allow more housing choices for those who wish to reside in this part of the City,
be they existing or new residents. At this stage, the applicant has not provided a definitive plan for
the different multi-family housing types being proposed. Only a schematic proposal, as is required
for Preliminary PUDs, has been submitted at this time. A breakdown as to unit size, type and
number of bedrooms should be provided for all units and buildings in the PUD.
4. The issue of slope stability has not yet been adequately addressed. While the site seems suitable
from a land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geological underpinnings of the site need to
be more fully explored. With the submission of the Final PUD, the applicant will have to present a
detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers selected with the approval of
both the Department of Community Development and the Public Works Departments. The report
4-
shall include, but not be limited to, information regarding: site stability/slope integrity; preservation
of the ravine and stream close to their current state; long term implications of development on
slope stability; geologic hazard including earthquake analysis; plans for site preparation and
restoration, as well as building construction techniques that will minimize ground instability and/or
subsidence due to settling or erosion. The applicant should be required to provide a slope
easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and
responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such an easement would permit the PUD ownership,
whether a single entity or a homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on
the steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
5. The access concerns of residents remain even with the scaling down of the proposal from 120
units to 72 units. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but the creation of
a new defacto "through" street - connection along Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue
N.E. to N.E. 16th Street which raises concerns about safety to nearby residents and school age
children. The streets surrounding the subject site to the south were not designed as collector
streets, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. Even with the upgrading of
Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. with street improvements, and surface
upgrading, the proposed access to the site may pose some problems to nearby residents since
homes along these streets are located closer to the street than would normally be the case along
collector streets.
6. The applicant's latest proposal, using Jefferson Avenue N.E. for primary access and N.E. 23rd
Street as a gated emergency approach to the site, makes sense now that the City's Fire Marshal
has agreed to accept a roadway width of less than 20 feet on N.E. 23rd Street. Many other
complexes, such as Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe, have one primary entry with an emergency
access which is gated, and some, such as Forest Brook, only have one entry point. With the
elimination of secondary access and the changing of N.E. 23rd Street into emergency access only,
there no longer is a need to keep the previously proposed secondary access along N.E. 21st
Street.
7. The site plan for the Preliminary PUD now appears reasonable and should be approved. (NOTE:
Plans for the Final PUD would have to follow the layout shown in the Preliminary PUD but also be
more detailed and show the requisite open space, recreation areas, and building design details.)
DECISION:
Based upon the above analysis, the Council hereby approves the preliminary P.U.D., File PPUD-015-84,
subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide a detailed geotechnical report with the submission of the final PUD
application. The report shall address site stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine and
stream close to their existing state; analyze the long term erosion potential by the development;
identify geologic hazards including earthquake analysis; provide specifics on site preparation and
restoration; and identify appropriate building techniques for the site.
2. The applicant shall construct and maintain gated secondary emergency access along the right-of-
way of N.E. 23rd Street which shall be designed to the satisfaction of the Fire Marshall and Public
Works Director, with a minimum width of 18 feet of paving.
3. The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid
problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such an easement would permit
the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a homeowner/condominium association, to do
maintenance work on the steep slopes below the proposed PUD. In addition, the applicant shall
record covenants running with the land requiring that the slope on the west side of Honey Creek
be maintained as closely as is possible in its natural state.
4. The applicant shall improve the road on its project to City standards from the main entrance
northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into parking lots.
The roadway shall be dedicated to the City. Sidewalks will be provided on one side of the street.
5. The applicant shall improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject site to
Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but not be
limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole on this
short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground service to the
duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E. which would
be impacted by the removal of the overhead power and telephone conductors.
5-
6. The applicant shall install the following school safety improvements:
a.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on the west
side of Jefferson Avenue N.E., with appropriate signing, should be required.
b.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on Harrington
Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest Elementary School
parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require appropriate storm drainage.
7. The submittal of detailed plans for the final PUD, providing a description of the usable open space,
recreation and building details.
8. The final PUD shall comply with relevant City PUD review criteria (contained in Section 4-15-5 and
4-15-10 of the City Code) as they pertain to: separation of pedestrian and vehicular circulation;
privacy within and between units; preservation of views and natural features; siting of carports
and/or garages; treatment of exterior building surfaces for aesthetic and durability reasons;
lighting; signage; and landscaping.
9. The applicant shall comply with all existing and any subsequent mitigation conditions imposed by
the City's responsible SEPA official, the Environmental Review Committee.
10. The applicant shall submit a detailed tree inventory and landscaping and on-site improvements
plan acceptable to the Community Development Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD.
11. The applicant shall submit plans and bonds for all on and off site improvements stipulated by the
Public Works Department, including those improvements identified in their memo of September 13,
1990 to the Council.
12. The applicant shall submit a detailed construction impact mitigation plan acceptable to the
Community Development Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD.
13. The applicant shall work with Community Development and Parks and Recreation Department staff
to develop appropriate on-site recreation facilities for future residents prior to submittal of the Final
PUD.
14. The final PUD shall comply with the time limits for PUDs as set forth in Section 4-15-11.F. of the
City Code.

DESCRIPTION.OF PROPOSAL: Approval of a revised preliminary PUD application for a
multi-family development with 72 dwelling units on 14.06
acres of land located on the south side of Honey Creek.
LOCATION OF PROPOSAL: Vicinity of the 2200 Block of Jefferson Avenue
Northeast.
1RECoMMENDATIoN
Staff are recommending that City Council accept these latest revisions to the applicant's proposed
Preliminary PUD since most of them appear to be the result of changes suggested by the City over the last
few months, and approve the Preliminary PUD with conditions.
Staff now believe that most major issues of concern relating to the general configuration and layout of the
PUD including density, open space, and circulation, have now been worked out to the satisfaction of City
reviewing departments and neighboring property owners.

Rage 2
3ACKGROUND
The 14.06 acre triangular site currently is heavily treed and vegetated and has two plateau areas
between steeper sloped areas that traverse it. Honey Creek runs in a northwesterly direction
along what would be the hypotenuse of the triangle). The west and southern edges of the site are
bordered by single-family dwellings. Hillcrest Elementary School and North Highlands Park lie to
the south across Harrington and Kirkland Avenues.
Although theoretically, the site could accommodate as many as 120.36 dwelling units, required
roadway dedications, and steep slope considerations reduced this to 71.95 dwelling units. The
applicant has proposed 72 dwelling units in their latest revision to this Preliminary PUD application.
The City Council, on April 14, 1986, adopted the recommendations of the Planning and
Development Committee, approving the recommendations of the Hearing Examiner, as amended,
to rezone the PUD site subject to: 1) submission of a final PUD; 2) annexation of the site into the
City; 3) dedication of a full 40-foot right-of-way on N.E. 23rd; 4) submission with a final PUD
application of a detailed geotechnical analysis; 5) submission of detailed plans for the final PUD
showing usable open space, recreation and building details; 6) provision of a slope easement to
the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the
subject site or portions of it were sold; 7) submission of a detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc.; 8) elimination of the connection and entry at
N.E. 21st Street; 9) the property zoned R-1 shall have no development pending the City being
provided detailed geotechnical information regarding site and site plan or PUD approval; and 10)
acknowledgement that current plans are for conceptual approval of a PPUD and do not vest in the
applicant or assign any development rights on the subject parcel or property without
recommendations of City staff and approval by Council of the geotechnical studies called for
above.
In addition, the Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's Responsible Official, issued a
Declaration of Non-Significance on October 21, 1985. The Committee determined, at that time,
that their original determination was valid for the proposed revisions to the PUD site plan.
The site was annexed into the City by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4095, enacted on November
25, 1987. On April 4, 1988, Council approved Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84) which became
effective on May 9, 1988 (Ordinance No. 4143). That approval rezoned the site to R-1 and R-2 and
allowed a maximum of 72 units on this site. It also required that there be two full access roads to
the site, including a 40-foot wide right-of-way alignment between Harrington Avenue N.E. and the
site. Because of a subsequent Superior Court decision issued on April 25, 1986 that barred the
City from using eminent domain to acquire a full right-of-way on N.E. 23rd Street, the Council, on
July 24, 1989, in response from a request from the applicant, passed a motion to amend its earlier
requirement that the PUD provide full street improvements including a 40-foot wide public right-of-
way alignment along N.E. 23rd Street. This amendment also asked the Public Works Department
to review the adequacy of streets serving the southern exit from the site as well as safety issues on
these streets. Public Works did carry out this review and came up with a list of street
improvements for Jefferson Avenue N.E. and portions of Harrington Avenue N.E., including curbs,
gutters, sidewalks, street lighting, and undergrounding of utilities.
The applicant, with this latest revision to their Preliminary PUD application, is now proposing to use
N.E. 23rd Street only as a gated emergency access only. Although the City owns a 20 foot right-
of-way along N.E. 23rd, it has agreed to require that only 18 feet of paved improvements be
provided by the applicant since a neighboring property owner has apparently refused to give the
applicant a temporary easement for constructing a retaining wall along a portion of the right-of-
way.
CIE SUES
ThE' following issues have been raised about the revised Preliminary PUD application during the interim
sin:e it was last heard by City Council. These issues are addressed below:
1.Whether the revised PPUD is sufficiently consistent with the previously considered
PPUD so as not to require additional review by the Hearing Examiner?
This is really not an issue since the Council is not being asked to consider the Final PUD at
this time, but rather, revisions to a Preliminary PUD application pursuant to changes it
requested of the applicant. Were Council approving a Final PUD, it would have to be in
substantial compliance with the approved Preliminary PUD.

2.Whether the revised PPUD adequately addresses City concerns for adequate
emergency vehicle access?
Both the Fire Department and Public Works Department have reviewed the applicant's
proposed emergency vehicle access on N.E. 23rd Street and agreed to a minimum of 18
feet of paving in the City owned 20 foot wide right-of-way.
3.Whether the revised PPUD now meets road access requirements in terms of slope
and roadway configuration to satisfy the concerns of the Public Works Department?
The Public Works Department has reviewed the latest Preliminary PUD site plan with its
revised roadway configuration including loop turnaround and revised exit road (formerly
paralleling the southern boundary) now designated for emergency access only, because
of its turns on steeper grades, and approved it in concept.
4.Whether the revised PPUD has been sited and engineered to ensure slope stability
and erosion control?
By siting more buildings away from the sloped areas and restricting their placement to
those portions of the site with slopes of 10 percent or less, there is less likelihood (than
under the former site plan) for slope instability to occur. The applicant will still be required
to submit a detailed geotechnical report and analysis before construction will be allowed.
5.Whether the revised PPUD has been sited to preserve natural features such as trees
on the site?
Nearly 50 percent of the site is preserved in greenbelt. In addition, staff are recommending
that additional landscaping be provided along steep slopes to further buffer them from
erosion. Because of this, site is expected to maintain a park-like feeling.
B. ISSUES: The following issues relate to possible environmental and/or site plan design related
considerations arising as a consequence of this development. Since there has not been`'.
subsequent environmental or site plan review on the project, the following discussion is an
attempt to address some of these where appropriate.
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT 1.Whether the subject proposal adequately protects the natural
environment and in particular, mature landscaping found on
the site?
A considerable amount of the site will be preserved in its natural
state. However, a tree inventory needs to be prepared that will
delineate which trees will be reserved and which will be removed.
Whenever possible, efforts should be taken in the siting of
residential buildings and parking areas to preserve larger
specimen trees found on the site.
NA-"URAL ENVIRONMENT 2.Whether adequate provisions have been made to stabilize
slopes and minimize future erosion on the site?
The applicant needs to develop a slope stability and conservation
plan that is acceptable to the Public Works Department before
they submit for Final PUD approval. This plan needs to be based
upon a detailed geotechnical report prepared by a licensed
geotechnical engineer.
LIGI-IT AND GLARE 3.Whether light and glare impacts have been mitigated for both
on-site and off-site residents?
A detailed landscaping plan, including fencing, paving and
lighting, needs to be developed prior to the applicant submitting
for Final PUD approval. This plan should ensure that there are
low fence or shrubbery barriers that will block auto headlight
glare for both residents and neighboring property owners. On
site lighting should be shielded so as not to create visible glare
from abutting properties.

TRAFFIC 4.Whether ingress and egress have been adequately worked
out to ensure reasonable protection of nearby residents as
well as users of the site?
After considerable review, it now appears that vehicular ingress
and egress have been worked out to the satisfaction of the City
and the applicant. Whereas in 1986, the applicant was required to
provide two separate means of access with full street
improvements, this condition has now been changed to a
requirement for only one "full" street access and an 18-foot wide
emergency access road on N.E. 23rd Street. On July 24, 1989,
Council asked the Public Works Department to review the
adequacy of streets serving the southern exit from the site. Public
Works reported back to Council with a list of improvements on
Jefferson Avenue N.E. from the site to Harrington Avenue N.E.
including curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and lighting to City standards,
underground utilities to an abutting duplex and fourplex, as well
as a marked school crosswalk across Harrington Avenue N.E. on
the west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E., and approximately 500
feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on
Harrington Avenue N.E. to the parking lot entrance at Hillcrest
School. The applicant will have to make these improvements to
mitigate traffic impacts on the project.
ST1)RM WATER 5.Whether surface water drainage has been adequately
addressed so as to minimize impacts on soils stability and
erosion?
The applicant must develop a detailed storm water drainage and
soils stabilization plan before submitting for Final PUD approval.
Native vegetation buffers, for example, should be provided on
steep slopes to help reduce the likelihood of slides.
STORM WATER 6.Whether storm and surface waters are being treated so as to
minimize impacts on water quality in Honey Creek, a
waterway of statewide significance and designated fisheries
enhancement stream?
This plan must address how storm water is to be handled and
treated before its release into Honey Creek. Presumably, on site
retention and biofiltration as well as oil/water separation will
occur before these waters are released into the creek.
SLC)PE STABILITY 7.Whether the site has been laid out in such a way as to
minimize impacts on steeper slopes and potential slides and
erosion?
The applicants have addressed this by restricting their
development to those portions of the site having a mean average
slope of 10 percent or less.
RECREATION 8.Whether sufficient recreational facilities have been provided
on-site or exist in the immediate area to adequately address
the recreational needs of the future occupants of the
proposed 72 dwelling units that would be developed on this
site?
North Highlands Park lies approximately 800 feet to the south of
the site, immediately south of Highland Crest School. But more
importantly, a relatively large portion of the site is being retained
as open space. Approximately one acre of the 14.06 acre site
could be considered usable open space. This, and the large
amounts of steeper sloped greenbelt provide a relatively high
ratio of passive open space for future residents. In addition, the
City's Master Trails Plan calls for a pedestrian trail along Honey
Creek at some future, undetermined date. An easement at the
south end of the site connecting to this trail might also be highly
desirable, benefiting the development as well as surrounding

neighborhoods. Staff also note that the latest revisions delete a
tot lot, cabana, swimming pool, and tennis court that were shown
in the previous scheme.
CONSTRUCTION 9.Whether plans have been developed to adequately address
construction related impacts such as noise, traffic, erosion,
and potential vandalism that could occur prior to the project
being occupied?
The applicant has not yet developed such a plan, but based upon
our experience with Victoria Hills FPUD, staff highly recommend
that the applicant develop such a plan or preferably negotiate a
development agreement with the City covering construction
related activities such as hours of the day and week that
construction activities will be allowed, penalties for violations, a
phasing schedule for completing different buildings, definitions of
completion, etc.
C RECOMMENDATIONS:
After carefully reviewing the record and the revisions to the latest proposal Staff are recommending that the
Cc uncil accept the latest revisions to the Preliminary PUD and approve this Preliminary PUD for 72 dwelling
un is as delineated in the applicant's revised Preliminary PUD site plan dated 1-24-90 and received by the
Cit j on March 7, 1990 subject to the following conditions:
1.The applicant shall submit a detailed tree inventory and landscaping and on-site
improvements plan acceptable to the Community Development Department prior to
submittal of the Final PUD;
2.The applicant shall submit a detailed geotechnical study and slope stabilization plan
acceptable to the Public Works Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD;
3.The applicant shall submit plans and bonds for all on and off site improvements stipulated
by the Public Works Department, including those improvements identified in their memo of
September 13, 1990 to the Council;
4.The applicant shall submit a detailed construction impact mitigation plan acceptable to the
Community Development Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD; and,
5.The applicant shall work with Community Development and Parks and Recreation
Department staff to develop appropriate on-site recreation facilities for future residents
prior to submittal of the Final PUD.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
CITY OF RENTON
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL
APPLICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES/
SKIP JACOBSON
FILE NO.: PPUD-15-84
Vicinity of the 2200 Block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Approval of a revised preliminary PUD application for a
multiple-family development with 72 dwelling units on 14.06 acres
of land located on the south side of Honey Creek.
The following report incorporates the Findings and Conclusions of the original report of the
Hearing Examiner issued on March 4, 1985, which was later revised in the Hearing Examiner's
report of January 17, 1986. Changes in some of the findings reflect the modified site plan for
the P.U.D.
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Skip Jacobson, requests approval of a revision to the Preliminary Planned
Unit Development (P.P.U.D) application for the Honey Creek P.U.D. The Honey Creek
P.U.D. proposal consists of 72 dwelling units on approximately 14.06 acres of property.
2. The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act
SEPA) documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, the previous
decisions by the Hearing Examiner, and a revised site plan together with a remand and
other pertinent documentation are a part of the record for the application. In addition,
documentation includes decisions regarding on-site access.
3. The City Council, on April 14, 1986, adopted the recommendations of the Planning and
Development Committee, approving the recommendations of the Hearing Examiner, as
amended, to rezone the PUD site subject to: 1) submission of a final PUD; 2)
annexation of the site into the City; 3) dedication of a full 40-foot right-of-way on N.E.
23rd; 4) submission with a final PUD application of a detailed geotechnical analysis; 5)
submission of detailed plans for the final PUD showing usable open space, recreation
and building details; 6) provision of a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD
property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the subject site or portions
of it were sold; 7) submission of a detailed engineering report regarding sewer, water,
drainage, roadway engineering, etc.; 8) elimination of the connection and entry at N.E.
21st Street; 9) the property zoned R-1 shall have no development pending the City being
provided detailed geotechnical information regarding site and site plan or PUD approval;
and, 10) acknowledgement that current plans are for conceptual approval of a PPUD and
do not vest in the applicant or assign any development rights on the subject parcel or
property without recommendations of City staff and approval by Council of the
geotechnical studies called for above.
4. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's Responsible Official, issued a
Declaration of Non-Significance on October 21, 1985. The Committee reviewed the
revised request on October 16, 1985 and determined that the original determination is
valid for the proposed revisions to the P.U.D. site plan.
5. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter on
or between April 24, 1984 and October 10, 1985 and in succeeding years as needed to
resolve issues.
6. The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E., immediately
south and generally east of 120th Place S.E., more commonly known as Devil's Elbow.
7. The subject site was annexed to the City by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4095,
enacted on November 25, 1987.
8. The subject site is a portion of a 47.7 acre site rezoned by the adoption of Ordinance
No. 4141, enacted on March 24, 1988. The subject parcel received an R-2, Residential
zoning classification which is a low density multiple-family zone allowing 12.1 dwelling
units per acre.
S
9. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as being suitable
for the development of greenbelt and low density multiple-family uses, but does not
allow such development without consideration of other policies of the plan.
10. The configuration of the existing site was created through a lot line adjustment in King
County approved in 1986.
11. A steep ravine is located adjacent to the property line running diagonally from the
northernmost point of the property to the southeast corner of the site. Honey Creek is
located at the bottom of this steep ravine.
12. Access to the subject site is limited due to the complex topography of the subject parcel
and adjacent parcel to the northeast and east, and given the existing development pattern
in the general area. Development surrounding the subject site is mixed. To the north
and immediately north/northeast and east are undeveloped parcels of property which
includes the majority of the ravine area and Honey Creek. To the east are single-family
uses, generally clustered in single-family subdivisions. The property south of the site is
developed with senior housing and duplex housing complexes developed during World
War II. Finally, to the west, development consists of single-family residences.
13. The site, at one time, was part of an old quarry. The relatively level plateau, on which
the development is proposed, is the result of the quarry activity. An old road grade was
cut into the site from Devil's Elbow to approximately the area of the subject site.
14. Sewer service will be available to the site via hookup to the Honey Creek interceptor
sewer which runs through the bottom of the adjacent ravine.
15 Storm drainage from the site will flow into Honey Creek, a fish spawning stream.
Because of this, biofiltration of surface water runoff should occur before storm drainage
discharges into this stream.
16. Water lines will need to be extended from Harrington Avenue N.E. to serve the site.
17. Considerable discussion has taken place over the years on the issue of access to the site.
The public opposition to the development has focussed mostly upon site access, the
inadequacy of the adjacent roads, and the impacts of traffic at these access points upon
the adjacent single-family neighborhood. Both N.E. 21st Street and N.E. 23rd Street
were found to be substandard streets, for example. The now proposed access road off of
Jefferson Avenue N.E. will have grades of 10% to 15%. Devil's Elbow was dropped
from consideration because of its grades as well as the fact that it had experienced
continued instability. The Public Works Department has determined that Devil's Elbow
is "not safe for either primary access or emergency access."
18. In March 1985, the original PPUD application for this site was denied by the Hearing
Examiner based upon inaccurate density calculations. At that time, primary access was
from Jefferson Avenue N.E., with a second access on N.E. 21st Street. A 20-foot wide,
gated emergency access road was provided along N.E. 23rd Street. Following resubmittal
in January 1986, the Hearing Examiner recommended the elimination of the second
access on N.E. 21st Street and also required that the applicant bear the cost of upgrading
these access roads.
19. With the elimination of the N.E. 21st Street access and the shifting of access to the
south, the Council required, at its meeting on April 14, 1986, the "...dedication of a full
40-foot wide right-of-way alignment with N.E. 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue
N.E. and the site, with an engineering report and specifications for full street
improvement as required by City Code." Because of subsequent difficulties in acquiring
the necessary right-of-way, the applicants, Honey Creek Associates, asked the City in
September, 1986 to assist them by starting condemnation proceedings (at the owners
expense) against the owners of the adjacent properties.
20. On April 4, 1988, Council approved Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84) which became
effective May 9, 1988 (Ordinance No. 4143).
21. In June of 1988, neighbors near the site supported the proposed Honey Creek PUD
development as an improvement that would "discourage crime, dumping, and motorcycle
access in the area."
22. After the City began condemnation proceedings, this matter was later appealed to the
courts by one of the property owners whose property was being condemned. A Superior
Court decision issued on April 25, 1986 barred the City from using eminent domain to
acquire a full right-of-way on N.E. 23rd Street (it was felt that the City was using its
powers to primarily benefit a private applicant).
2-
23. At another public hearing on the PPUD on June 19, 1989, the Council was asked to
decide whether to retain the approved PPUD requirement of two full access roads to the
site or to reduce the requirement to one access road along N.E. Jefferson with a twenty
foot, gated emergency access road on N.E. 23rd Street. The Council decided not to take
action on this date.
24. At a subsequent meeting on July 24, 1989, the Council, in response to a request from
the applicant, passed a motion to amend the PPUD to eliminate its earlier requirement
that the applicant provide full street improvements including a 40-foot wide public
right-of-way alignment along N.E. 23rd Street. Instead, Council called for the road to
be improved only for emergency vehicle access using the twenty (20) feet of right-of-
way that the City owns on N.E. 23rd Street. That motion also asked the Public Works
Department to review the adequacy of streets serving the southern exit from the site as
well as look at safety issues on these streets and report back to Council. Staff
determined that these streets were designed for local access as defined in the City's
Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The size, construction and maintenance plans for
these streets also indicates local access status. Neighborhood collectors per the
Subdivision Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet - paved for 36
feet.
25. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicted 60% of the PPUD
development's traffic will travel south from the project site toward Kirkland Avenue
N.E. The remainder of the traffic from this area of the site would travel north and west
of the site.
26. Under the previous (1985) site plan, which had its primary access from N.E. 21st Street
as well as Jefferson, residents along these streets were concerned that ingress and egress
and subsequent improvements along these streets would open up an even more direct
route through a residential neighborhood. This concern has been reduced under the
latest site plan (drawing dated 1-24-90, see Exhibit "A") which limits primary access to
Jefferson Avenue N.E. Traffic leaving the development heading north under the revised
proposal would now have to exit via Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue
N.E. south to N.E. 16th Street, and then go north on Edmonds Avenue N.E. to
destinations to the north. Traffic traveling southward would likely travel the same
route, but continue south on Edmonds Avenue N.E.
27. In June of 1989, Public Works evaluated whether N.E. 21st should be evaluated as an
alternative to N.E. 23rd Street. They concluded there was: 1) insufficient right-of-way;
and 2) traffic will pass through a single-family residential area.
28. On September 13, 1989, the Public Works Department reported back to the Council on
improvements it felt were necessary to ensure pedestrian safety due to increased traffic
generated by the subject proposal on September 25, 1989. This report was subsequently
referred back to the Planning and Development Committee for their consideration.
29. The Planning and Development Committee held several meetings to study this matter.
On December 11, 1989, the Planning and Development Committee recommended, and
the Council approved, the following street improvement conditions:
a.The developer will improve the road on its project to city standards from the
main entrance northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which
the road turns into parking lots. It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated
to the city. Sidewalks will be provided on one side of the street.
b.The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from
subject site to Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but
not be limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole
on this short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground
service to the duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson
Avenue N.E. which would be impacted by the removal of the overhead
power and telephone conductors.
c.The developer will install the following school safety improvements:
1.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue
N.E. on the west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E. with appropriate signing
should be required.
3-
2.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street
lighting on Harrington Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue
N.E. to the Hillcrest Elementary School parking lot entrance. The raised
curbing would also require appropriate storm drainage.
30. Pursuant to this action, the applicant has proposed to use N.E. 23rd street as a gated
emergency access. Although the City owns 20 feet of right-of-way on the extension of
N.E. 23rd Street, not all of this can be used for improved roadway since a retaining wall
has to be built along a portion of it. The Fire Department, on March 21, 1990,
indicated that there is sufficient right-of-way to build the emergency access provided
that the width of the paved portion of the right-of-way is not less than 18 feet wide.
The applicants submitted revised plans on March 7, 1990 showing that this requirement
could be met. Further, the applicant retained Terra Associates, Inc. to evaluate the
adequacy of the proposed concrete retaining walls on either side of the roadway. The
engineers determined that the design shown for the roadway improvements could be
accomplished.
31. Density calculations which were based upon the PUD formula were originally a subject
of dispute. With the revised PPUD plans, this issue is essentially resolved. The only
potential area for dispute in the current case might be over the choice of contour
intervals used in calculating steep slopes and the subsequent densities allowed. The
Building and Zoning Department (now part of the Community Development Department)
had primary jurisdiction for determining the density. It appears the Department made a
reasonable determination of the density in 1985. In addition, its decision was not
disputed at the time.
32. The total number of units, barring slope, street and dedication deductions which could
be accommodated on those portions of the site for which the applicant has requested R1
zoning would be 48.36, while 72 units could be accommodated on that portion of the site
zoned R2, for a total of 120.36 units on the original 14.06 acre portion of the site
currently under consideration. Dedications would reduce the acreage by approximately
0.85 acres or 5.1 units, and street set asides would reduce the acreage by 1.6 acres or 9.6
units. The slope formula used by the City staff, deducting the most acreage due to
severe slope, would reduce the development potential by 31.9% or 33.71 units. The total
would permit 71.95 units which was just .05 units below the applicant's request of 72
units.
33. The potential 72 units are planned only for that portion of the site lying to the south
and west of Honey Creek. No proposal has been submitted for the area to the east or
north of Honey Creek.
34. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the subject
proposal by staff in 1985. Using current standards, we would estimate that the 72 units
of multi-family townhouses and flats would generate approximately 29 school age
children. This compares to an estimated 26 school age children if the site were
developed with an estimated 43 single-family homes.
35. The project, with its 72 units, would generate an estimated 430 vehicle trips per day.
Comparisons were drawn indicating that the development of approximately 43 single-
family homes (under single-family zoning on this site) would generate, at 10.0 AWDTE
per dwelling unit a similar amount of traffic as 72 units at 6.5 AWDTE per dwelling
unit (468 vehicle trips per day).
36. The majority of soils found on the site are sandy soils of Class III. Such soils typically
imply that such a site would be susceptible to erosion, earthquake and landslide damage.
Slides occurred while the sewer line was being installed in the creek bed, and other
slides and sloughs have occurred in the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek,
both on and off the subject site. The applicant has addressed this by restricting their
development to those portions of the site having a mean average slope of less than 10
percent. In addition, the use of native vegetation buffers on steep slopes should be
provided to further reduce the likelihood of slides.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The development of the subject site using the PUD provisions of the Building
Regulations would appear to be in the public interest. The unique topography and
environment of the subject site can best be protected by clustering new development on
those portions of the site that are less prone to erosion or landslide damage and staying
away from areas having steeper slopes such as along Honey Creek. The 1982 PUD
provisions allow such density clustering when it is in the public interest. The proposed
4-
72 multi-family units would not produce substantially more traffic than a 43 unit single-
family residential development (permitted under the current zoning). The PUD appears
to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally sensitive site, permits
the applicant reasonable use of the site (which is private property) and appears to protect
the site's fragile environment better than most other uses except possibly a park or open
space use. The latter, however, would do little to police the site and reduce
unauthorized use of the site by those dumping litter, shooting off firecrackers, and
driving motorcycles across it.
2. The topographical isolation of the site would also appear sufficient to avoid any adverse
impacts from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining properties. Whereas
under the 1985 site plan, buildings in the southwest corner of the site were within 90
feet of the western and southern property lines. Under the latest 1990 site plan, there is
at least a 190 foot separation from the nearest residential building to the southern or
western property lines. The housing under this latest site plan would be clustered and
encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be left for open space purposes.
3. Multi-family dwelling units at this location would allow for more variety and diversity
in the existing neighborhood and allow more housing choices for those who wish to
reside in this part of the City, be they existing or new residents. At this stage, the
applicant has not provided a definitive plan for the different multi-family housing types
being proposed. Only a schematic proposal, as is required for Preliminary PUDs, has
been submitted at this time. A breakdown as to unit size, type and number of bedrooms
should be provided for all units and buildings in the PUD.
4. The issue of slope stability has not yet been adequately addressed. While the site seems
suitable from a land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geological underpinnings
of the site need to be more fully explored. With the submission of the Final PUD, the
applicant will have to present a detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by independent
engineers selected with the approval of both the Department of Community Development
and the Public Works Departments. The report shall include, but not be limited to,
information regarding: site stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine and
stream close to their current state; long term implications of development on slope
stability; geologic hazard including earthquake analysis; plans for site preparation and
restoration, as well as building construction techniques that will minimize ground
instability and/or subsidence due to settling or erosion. The applicant should be
required to provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to
avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such an
easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a
homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on the steep slopes
below the proposed PUD.
5. The access concerns of residents remain even with the scaling down of the proposal from
120 units to 72 units. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but
the creation of a new defacto "through" street - connection along Jefferson Avenue N.E.
and Harrington Avenue N.E. to N.E. 16th Street which raises concerns about safety to
nearby residents and school age children. The streets surrounding the subject site to the
south were not designed as collector streets, and in their current state should not be
utilized as such. Even with the upgrading of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington
Avenue N.E. with width improvements, property acquisition and surface upgrading, the
proposed access to the site may still pose problems to nearby residents. For example,
these streets were not originally designed to carry through traffic, and homes along these
streets are located closer to the street than would normally be the case along collector
streets.
6. The applicant's latest proposal, using Jefferson Avenue N.E. for primary access and N.E.
23rd Street as a gated emergency approach to the site, makes sense now that the City's
Fire Marshal has agreed to accept a roadway width of less than 20 feet. Many other
complexes, such as Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe, have one primary entry with an
emergency access which is gated, and some, such as Forest Brook, only have one entry
point. With the elimination of secondary access and the changing of N.E. 23rd Street
into emergency access only, there no longer is a need to keep the previously proposed
secondary access along N.E. 21st Street.
7. The site plan for the Preliminary PUD now appears reasonable and should be approved.
NOTE: Plans for the Final PUD would have to follow the layout shown in the
Preliminary PUD but also be more detailed and show the requisite open space, recreation
areas, and building design details.)

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based upon the above analysis it is recommended that the proposed preliminary P.U.D., File
PPUD-015-84, be approved subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide a detailed geotechnical report with the submission of the
final PUD application. The report shall address site stability/slope integrity;
preservation of the ravine and stream close to their existing state; analyze the long term
erosion potential by the development; identify geologic hazards including earthquake
analysis; provide specifics on site preparation and restoration; and identify appropriate
building techniques for the site.
2. Construct and maintain gated secondary emergency access along the right-of-way of
N.E. 23rd Street which shall be designed to the satisfaction of the Fire Marshall and
Public Works Director, with a minimum width of 18 feet of paving.
3. The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property
to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such an
easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a
homeowner/condominium association, to do maintenance work on the steep slopes below
the proposed PUD. In addition, the applicant shall record covenants running with the
land requiring that the slope on the west side of Honey Creek be maintained as closely
as is possible in its natural state.
4. The applicant shall improve the road on its project to City standards from the main
entrance northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road
turns into parking lots. The roadway shall be dedicated to the City. Sidewalks will be
provided on one side of the street.
5. The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject
site to Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but
not be limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole
on this short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground
service to the duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson
Avenue N.E. which would be impacted by the removal of the overhead
power and telephone conductors.
6. The developer will install the following school safety improvements:
a.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on
the west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E., with appropriate signing, should be
required.
b.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on
Harrington Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest
Elementary School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require
appropriate storm drainage.
7. The submittal of detailed plans for the final PUD, providing a description of the usable
open space, recreation and building details.
8. The final PUD shall comply with relevant City site plan review criteria (contained in
Section 4-31-33 of the City Code) as they pertain to: separation of pedestrian and
vehicular circulation; privacy within and between units; preservation of views and
natural features; siting of carports and/or garages; treatment of exterior building surfaces
for aesthetic and durability reasons; lighting; signage; and landscaping.
9. And, compliance with all existing and any subsequent mitigation conditions imposed by
the City's responsible SEPA official, the Environmental Review Committee.

t,
DATE : June 16, 1989
TO: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney
FROM : Lynn A. G trr ar4, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: NE 23rd Street and Honey Creek PUD
This memo is in response to your correspondence dated May 1 , 1989, in regard
to street access to the proposed Honey Creek PUD.
Question 1 : Should the City acquire the NE 23rd Street right-of-way, even if
the Honey Creek Associates PUD is not developed?
RespDnse: The answer is yes. This roadway section will be needed for whoever
and whenever the subject property is developed. NE 23rd Street
provides the most direct route and least disruptive route through
the single family residence. This street access would also
disperse the traffic impact at Jefferson Ave. NE access which
routes passed Hillcrest Elementary School . A lesser traffic impact
around a school location should be encouraged.
Question 2: If NE 23rd Street cannot be used, what other alternative means of
access to the property should be used?
Resp )nse: If NE 23rd Street is not an option, then the less desirable alter-
natives would be as follows:
Alternate #1 : NE 21st Street between Jefferson Ave. NE &
Harrington Place
This roadway segment has an insufficient right-a-way problem.
The easterly 130 feet has a 30-foot right-a-way and the westerly
125 feet of this roadway segment has a 60-foot right-of-way.
The easterly half needs another 30 feet of right-a-way to match
the westerly half. It is also needed to build to a roadway
width that meets current standards. Another problem with NE
21st Street is that it passes through a single family residence
creating increased traffic in a residential area neighborhood.
Alternate #2: NE 27th Street & 120th Place SE
also known as the Devil 's Elbow)
This roadway, as you are aware, has been closed due to its
instability. In its present condition, it is unacceptable for
Lawrence J. Warren

primary and/or secondary emergency access. Based upon prelimi -
nary investigation, it was estimated in 1988 by staff that it
would cost $1,432,000 to construct a 28-foot wide roadway
meeting current standards. The cost makes this option non-
viable.
The minimum right-of-way width required per ordinance is 50 feet for any of
the alternatives above. An exception is 40 feet for one-way traffic on a
hillside area. See City Code 9-1108 Section 7H.
Question 3: What long-term planning and traffic problems does this PUD create
for the City?
Respcnse: Phase I of the proposed PUD is 77 units which impact the accesses
proposed above. This will generate an average weekday traffic of
508 vehicle trips per day with 40 trips in the AM peak and 49 trips
in the PM peak hour. Phase II will not use this proposed access,
but access to the east. The PUD will not cause a major impact on
the existing roadways if we can disperse the access at two
locations.
If we can provide further information, please let us know.

Honorable Earl Clymer
City Council Members
Renton, Washington 98055
Reference: Honeycreek P.U.D.
Dear Mayor Clymer and Renton City Council Members:
I have been contacted by City Attorney Larry Warren regarding the pending hearing and possible
approval of the Honeycreek P.U.D. The following information will answer the questions posed in
Larry Warren's memorandum pertaining to fire department emergency access from Northeast 23rd
Street:
1.Question: Is the existing city right-of-way sufficient to build an emergency access?
Answer: I made an inspection of the proposed site on June 7, 1989. It appears the existing
right-of-way is sufficient to construct a fire department emergency access into the site.
2.Question: If not, because of retaining walls or other reasons, how much right-of-way will
be necessary?
Answer: During my inspection I did not see any retaining walls, however, one may be
required to be constructed in the future, to properly develop the access.
3.Question: What type of surface will be required to handle the emergency vehicles?
Answer: The Uniform Fire Code requires a 20 foot minimum width of road surface. City
of Renton Fire Lane Ordinance #4130, specifies a paved concrete or asphalt surface to
support a 41,000 lb. fire apparatus. The Renton Fire Department will enforce these codes
and ordinances.
4.Question: What other problems can you anticipate with this particular emergency access?
Answer: At this time I don't anticipate any problems, with the possible exception of grade;
maximum approved fire department grade is 12%.
I hope I have answered your concerns.

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published
PUD: Preliminary, Honey in accordance with local and State law, Mayor Clymer opened the public
Creek. PPUD-015-84 hearing to consider the Honey Creek Preliminary Planned Unit Development.
The subject site is 14.06 acres of land located on the south side of Honey
Creek in the vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson Avenue Northeast.
Larry Springer, Planning Manager for the Community Development
Department, presented a chronology of the project which began in late 1984.
Mr. Springer reported that the Planning and Development Committee had
directed staff to prepare a report and recommendation for final action on the
project. Staff presented three options: (1) reject the redesigned emergency
access only proposal for NE 23rd and thereby deny the proposed Honey
Creek PPUD; (2) approve the redesigned emergency access only proposal for
NE 23rd and thereby approve the proposed Honey Creek PPUD, and refer
the matter to Ways and Means for action; (3) accept the staff recommendation
for revised access to the project, and thereby approve the proposed Honey
Creek PPUD including: emergency access only for NE 23rd Street;,
emergency access only for the road along the south side of the project;
relocate three buildings northward onto the lower part of the site adjacent to
the other units. The matter would then be referred to Ways and Means for
preparation of an ordinance and set June 18th as a public hearing date where
Council can hear testimony on topics other than the access.
Upon Council inquiry regarding the revisions and removal of landscape
materials, Don Erickson, responded that a considerable amount will be
preserved in its natural state. Mr. Erickson noted that there was a
cooperative effort with staff, the developer, and other departments in making
the revisions to the original plan.
Council President Mathews asked if current code and PPUD requirements
were being applied to this project since it was originally started in 1983-84
and has not received approval. Mr. Springer referred to City Code Title 4,
Chapter 15, Sections 11, 12, 13 regarding timelines on planned unit
developments and noted that the new code should be added as an amendment
to the recommendations offered by staff in the report submitted to Council
prior to final of the project. He noted that the letters from the Fire Marshall
and Public Works Department had been received concurring that the
redesigned emergency access meets the requirements presented to the
Planning and Development Committee in December 1989.
Council asked for clarification regarding the subject for discussion pertaining
to the PPUD. Staff verified that the public notice specifically stated that the
public hearing was on the access of the Honey Creek project. Council
President Mathews reiterated that the access issue is the only type of
testimony to be heard before Council at this time.
Comment from the audience was invited. Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd
Place, Renton, stated his opposition to the redesigned access. Mr. Murray
noted concerns regarding the allowance of less than 20 foot width for the
proposed emergency access; no allowance for gravel or drainage material; no
guardrails along the road; the right of way below minimum standards. He
recommended Devil's Elbow as the alternative for access which could be
stabilized and also serve as a bike corridor and access to the sewer pump
station at the base of the area. He requested that the revised access be denied
because it is inappropriate to take action without a review by the hearing
examiner as an independent analysis to clarify whether it meets code and
allow public to have input.
Virginia Hiramatsu, 2805 NE 23rd Place, Renton, stated that she is not
opposed to the development itself but believes that the public would be better
served with the plans as presented by Mr. Murray.
Howard Coupman, 2809 NE 23rd Place, Renton, reiterated points made by
Mr. Murray regarding Devil's Elbow as an possible alternative and stated his
opposition to the current redesign.
John Sargent, 2016 Edmonds Avenue NE, Renton, property owner next to the
subject site stated that he felt there should be more negotiations. He
expressed concerns regarding the need for retaining walls due to the unstable
ground along the creek bed and the necessity for a wider emergency access
road.
Henry Jacobson, 13701 SE Allen Road, Bellevue, representing Honey Creek
Associates, addressed the 18 foot access. He noted that the emergency access
through the main entrance is a full 20 feet wide, and is an extension of a
June 4, 1990 Renton City Council Minutes Page 164
City street that would be on Harrington. It is a full City-wide street that has
lights and sidewalks. It is designed to be safety conscious and has good
visibility. He also noted that there are three different accesses to the
development, and he has spent many hours working with the City to achieve
beneficial results. He stated that he disagrees with the Devil's Elbow
alternative presented by Mr. Murray.
Bob Tomberg, 5611 - 119th SE, Bellevue, owner of the subject property,
stated that he has worked on this project for six years; it has not been a rapid
decision. There has been a lot of negotiation on both sides and he believes
this is a good compromise for all concerned. He reiterated that Devil's Elbow
is not a viable alternative for this project which is the opinion of experts
from the City and County and other professionals. In his opinion, the
emergency access on 23rd is not necessary but provided as an extra benefit to
the development. He stated that the project as recommended by staff meets
all the requirements.
John Best, 3337 - 259th Place, Issaquah, representative of Burnside
Construction Company, who is purchasing the property to develop, noted that
his company has a long history in development of quality neighborhoods. He
stressed that the access as shown, especially the primary access, is adequate in
and of itself in providing alternative emergency access. He stated that he is a
6 developer who has had a long track record with successful projects on the
east side.
Randy Corman, 2216 Harrington Place NE, Renton, stated that after
reviewing the staff recommendations to City Council, he disagreed with the
report regarding the traffic route. He referred to Item 25 and 26 regarding
the traffic flow through the neighborhood stating that this route through a
single family neighborhood would be heavily impacted and recommended that
further study be done on street improvements in the neighborhood or scaling
down on the proposed number of units.
Further Council discussion followed regarding the number of chained fences
for emergency access within the City and the number of times these accesses
have been used in emergency situations. Glen Gordon, Fire Battalion Chief,
responded that the City has approximately 15 chained emergency accesses and
in 20 years, these have been seldom used.
Councilman Edwards asked why the NE 23rd emergency access is necessary
when there is a southerly access. Mr. Gordon explained that the road splits
inside the development and if the south road is blocked, emergency vehicles
cannot access the development. Therefore, there should be two separate
accesses to the development.
Councilwoman Zimmerman asked whether approval of the access as presented
would give approval of the site plan. Mr. Springer explained that if the
emergency access on 23rd is approved, that means the PPUD is approved as
shown and then the final PUD could be started. Another public hearing
could be held to discuss other items including relocation of buildings and
modification of the site plan.
Upon Council inquiry as to the redesign of the site plan, Mr. Springer
answered that it was the result of combined efforts of the Planning and
Development Committee and Mr. Jacobson, the potential purchaser of the
PUD. Mr. Jacobsen redesigned the project and resubmitted it with the
changes of the relocation of the three buildings.

MOTION CARRIED.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Versie Vaupel, P.O. Box 755, Renton, requested Council advance to Old
Advancement Requested Business to discuss the North Soos Creek Annexation. MOVED BY
MATHEWS, SECONDED BY EDWARDS, COUNCIL SUSPEND THE
REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS AND ADVANCE TO OLD BUSINESS,
NORTH SOOS CREEK ANNEXATION. CARRIED.
Annexation: North Soos Ken Nyberg, Director of Community Development Department, introduced
Creek (Fairwood) Nancy Laswell Morris, Chief, Long-Range Planning, and Fred Fortine,
Senior Planner, who presented a report on the relation of the Growth
Management program to the North Soos Creek project and the pros and cons
of the North Soos Creek Annexation for taxpayers in Renton.
Referring to a map which showed sphere of influence, potential annexation
boundaries and areas where city services are provided, Ms. Laswell Morris
explained the current way planning is done in the city through an inter-
jurisdictional planning puzzle between the city and county which includes
transportation, land use, housing, utilities, and capital facilities. She reported
that the Growth Management Bill mandates five major elements in growth
management planning which are land use, housing, capital facilities plan
municipal land uses such as parks, etc), utilities and transportation. She
stated that growth management mandates a balanced approach as compared to
an isolated plan for the City. Ms. Laswell Morris explained a balanced
system under the growth management which incorporates the five elements in
relation to needs and the infrastructure capacity. Under this plan, the City
becomes the focus with a series of four sectors radiating from the City, thus
the North Soos Creek area becomes much more related to the City of Renton
relative to planning. She further explained that under growth management,
primary goals are an urban/rural boundary; concurrency, which is finance as
you go with a focus on transportation; consistency between jurisdictions; a
mandatory allocation of population growth in which the State will assign
populations to the jurisdictions; and allocation of municipal land uses.
Ms. Laswell Morris noted that according to the growth management act, the
City would be required to analyze the North Soos Creek area because it
would be within the City's eastern urban growth boundary, with the
possibility of a southern boundary between Renton and Kent. Also, there
would be an infrastructure analysis of expansion of City services such as
transportation, water, sewer, storm water; and an analysis of municipal land
uses such as library, fire, police, parks, and public works. Because of the
annexation study by the City, certain elements of growth management have
already been studied which include land use, housing, capital facilities,
utilities and transportation.
Ms. Laswell Morris presented the pros and cons in the areas of political
influence, financial impact, land use, and municipal services. She then
explained the general overview of the work program from June 1990 to
November 1991 which included an immediate work program from June to
October 1990 of public information, fact cards, public workshops and
statistically valid surveys of both Renton residents and NSC residents. She
presented the administration's recommendation to go forward with the work
program and bring back to Council in October 1990 a go/no go decision
based on facts, surveys of both groups, workshops and other community
input. She explained that if the Council decides to go forward, then
boundaries would have to be set for all, a portion, or larger than the initial
study. In this particular time frame, an election in November 1991 would
determine the annexation issue with an effective date of annexation on
January 1, 1992. The reason for the November election is due to the timing
of the work program, fiscal considerations and the cost of the election.
CHRONOLOGY
Honey Creek PPUD
March, 1985 Hearing Examiner denied the original PPUD based on an
inaccurate density calculation.
January, 1986 Hearing Examiner recommends approval of a 72 unit
PPUD having primary access off of Jefferson Avenue NE,
and emergency access only off of 20 foot wide ROW at
NE 23rd Street.
April and May, 1986 Council generally concurs with Hearing Examiner's
recommendation, but requires that the secondary access at
NE 23rd Street be on a full 40 wide public ROW with full
City standard improvements.
September, 1986 Honey Creek Associates requests City assistance in
acquiring additional ROW to comply with the condition to
widen NE 23rd Street.
October, 1987 City agrees to proceed with condemnation for 20 feet of
NE 23rd Street ROW, but notifies the developers that it
will be at their expense.
April, 1988 A King County Superior Court decision prohibits the City
from using eminent domain to acquire ROW to primarily
benefit a private applicant.
July, 1989 Applicant requests that Council reconsider its requirement
that NE 23rd Street be upgraded to a full 40 foot wide
street. Council concurs, but requests information from
Public Works regarding impacts on Jefferson Ave NE,
and from Fire Department regarding the adequacy of a 20
foot wide ROW for emergency access only along NE 23rd
Street.
December, 1989 Planning and Development Committee accepted staff
reports regarding access, and some potential modifications
to the site plan. The Committee directed staff to prepare
a report and recommendation for final action at Council
public hearing.
COUNCIL OPTIONS
Honey Creek PPUD
o Reject the redesigned emergency access only proposal for NE 23rd and thereby
DENY the proposed Honey Creek PPUD.
o Approve the redesigned emergency access only proposal for NE 23rd and
thereby APPROVE the proposed Honey Creek PPUD. Refer the matter to
Ways and Means for preparation of an ordinance.

CITY OF RENTON
CITY COUNCIL RECORD OF DECISION
APPLICANT: HONEY CREEK ASSOCIATES/
SKIP JACOBSON
FILE NO.: PPUD-15-84
Vicinity of the 2200 Block of Jefferson Avenue N.E.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:Approval of a revised preliminary PUD application for a multiple-family
development with 72 dwelling units on 14.06 acres of land located on the
south side of Honey Creek.
The following report incorporates the Findings and Conclusions of the original report of the Hearing
Examiner issued on March 4, 1985, which was later revised in the Hearing Examiner's report of January 17,
1986. Changes in some of the findings reflect the modified site plan for the P.U.D.
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Skip Jacobson, requests approval of a revision to the Preliminary Planned Unit
Development (P.P.U.D) application for the Honey Creek P.U.D. The Honey Creek P.U.D. proposal
consists of 72 dwelling units on approximately 14.06 acres of property.
2. The application file containing the application, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)
documentation, the Building and Zoning Department Report, the previous decisions by the
Hearing Examiner, and a revised site plan together with a remand and other pertinent
documentation are a part of the record for the application. In addition, documentation includes
decisions regarding on-site access.
3. The City Council, on April 14, 1986, adopted the recommendations of the Planning and
Development Committee, approving the recommendations of the Hearing Examiner, as amended,
to rezone the PUD site subject to: 1) submission of a final PUD; 2) annexation of the site into the
City; 3) dedication of a full 40-foot right-of-way on N.E. 23rd; 4) submission with a final PUD
application of a detailed geotechnical analysis; 5) submission of detailed plans for the final PUD
showing usable open space, recreation and building details; 6) provision of a slope easement to
the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the
subject site or portions of it were sold; 7) submission of a detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc.; 8) elimination of the connection and entry at
N.E. 21st Street; 9) the property zoned R-1 shall have no development pending the City being
provided detailed geotechnical information regarding site and site plan or PUD approval; and, 10)
acknowledgement that current plans are for conceptual approval of a PPUD and do not vest in the
applicant or assign any development rights on the subject parcel or property without
recommendations of City staff and approval by Council of the geotechnical studies called for
above.
4. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's Responsible Official, issued a Declaration
of Non-Significance on October 21, 1985. The Committee reviewed the revised request on
October 16, 1985 and determined that the original determination is valid for the proposed revisions
to the P.U.D. site plan.
5. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter on or between
April 24, 1984 and October 10, 1985 and in succeeding years as needed to resolve issues.
6. The subject site is located in the vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue N.E., immediately south and
generally east of 120th Place S.E., more commonly known as Devil's Elbow.
7. The subject site was annexed to the City by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4095, enacted on
November 25, 1987.
8. The subject site is a portion of a 47.7 acre site rezoned by the adoption of Ordinance No. 4141,
enacted on March 24, 1988. The subject parcel received an R-2, Residential zoning classification
which is a low density multiple-family zone allowing 12.1 dwelling units per acre.
9. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as being suitable for the
development of greenbelt and low density multiple-family uses, but does not allow such
development without consideration of other policies of the plan.
10. The configuration of the existing site was created through a lot line adjustment in King County
approved in 1986.
11. A steep ravine is located adjacent to the property line running diagonally from the northernmost
point of the property to the southeast corner of the site. Honey Creek is located at the bottom of
this steep ravine.
12. Access to the subject site is limited due to the complex topography of the subject parcel and
adjacent parcel to the northeast and east, and given the existing development pattern in the
general area. Development surrounding the subject site is mixed. To the north and immediately
north/northeast and east are undeveloped parcels of property which includes the majority of the
ravine area and Honey Creek. To the east are single-family uses, generally clustered in single-
family subdivisions. The property south of the site is developed with senior housing and duplex
housing complexes developed during World War II. Finally, to the west, development consists of
single-family residences.
13. The site, at one time, was part of an old quarry. The relatively level plateau, on which the
development is proposed, is the result of the quarry activity. An old road grade was cut into the
site from Devil's Elbow to approximately the area of the subject site.
14. Sewer service will be available to the site via hookup to the Honey Creek interceptor sewer which
runs through the bottom of the adjacent ravine.
15. Storm drainage from the site will flow into Honey Creek, a fish spawning stream. Because of this,
biofiltration of surface water runoff should occur before storm drainage discharges into this stream.
16. Water lines will need to be extended from Harrington Avenue N.E. to serve the site.
17. Considerable discussion has taken place over the years on the issue of access to the site. The
public opposition to the development has focussed mostly upon site access, the inadequacy of the
adjacent roads, and the impacts of traffic at these access points upon the adjacent single-family
neighborhood. Both N.E. 21st Street and N.E. 23rd Street were found to be substandard streets,
for example. The now proposed access road off of Jefferson Avenue N.E. will have grades of 10%
to 15%. Devil's Elbow was dropped from consideration because of its grades as well as the fact
that it had experienced continued instability. The Public Works Department has determined that
Devil's Elbow is"not safe for either primary access or emergency access."
18. In March 1985, the original PPUD application for this site was denied by the Hearing Examiner
based upon inaccurate density calculations. At that time, primary access was from Jefferson
Avenue N.E., with a second access on N.E. 21st Street. A 20-foot wide, gated emergency access
road was provided along N.E. 23rd Street. Following resubmittal in January 1986, the Hearing
Examiner recommended the elimination of the second access on N.E. 21st Street and also
required that the applicant bear the cost of upgrading these access roads.
19. With the elimination of the N.E. 21st Street access and the shifting of access to the south, the
Council required, at its meeting on April 14, 1986, the "...dedication of a full 40-foot wide right-of-
way alignment with N.E. 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue N.E. and the site, with an
engineering report and specifications for full street improvement as required by City Code."
Because of subsequent difficulties in acquiring the necessary right-of-way, the applicants, Honey
Creek Associates, asked the City in September, 1986 to assist them by starting condemnation
proceedings (at the owners expense) against the owners of the adjacent properties.
20. On April 4, 1988, Council approved Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84) which became effective
May 9, 1988 (Ordinance No. 4143).
21. In June of 1988, neighbors near the site supported the proposed Honey Creek PUD development
as an improvement that would "discourage crime, dumping, and motorcycle access in the area."
22. After the City began condemnation proceedings, this matter was later appealed to the courts by
one of the property owners whose property was being condemned. A Superior Court decision
issued on April 25, 1988 barred the City from using eminent domain to acquire a full right-of-way on
N.E. 23rd Street (it was felt that the City was using its powers to primarily benefit a private
applicant).
23. At another public hearing on the PPUD on June 19, 1989, the Council was asked to decide whether
to retain the approved PPUD requirement of two full access roads to the site or to reduce the
requirement to one access road along N.E. Jefferson with a twenty foot, gated emergency access
road on N.E. 23rd Street. The Council decided not to take action on this date.
24. At a subsequent meeting on July 24, 1989, the Council, in response to a request from the
applicant, passed a motion to amend the PPUD to eliminate its earlier requirement that the
applicant provide full street improvements including a 40-foot wide public right-of-way alignment
along N.E. 23rd Street. Instead, Council called for the road to be improved only for emergency
vehicle access using the twenty (20) feet of right-of-way that the City owns on N.E. 23rd Street.
That motion also asked the Public Works Department to review the adequacy of streets serving the
2-
southern exit from the site as well as look at safety issues on these streets and report back to
Council. Staff determined that these streets were designed for local access as defined in the City's
Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The size, construction and maintenance plans for these
streets also indicates local access status. Neighborhood collectors per the Subdivision Ordinance
and the Comprehensive Plan are to be 60 feet- paved for 36 feet.
25. The traffic analysis prepared for the subject proposal predicted 60% of the PPUD development's
traffic will travel south from the project site toward Kirkland Avenue N.E. The remainder of the
traffic from this area of the site would travel north and west of the site.
26. Under the previous (1985) site plan, which had its primary access from N.E. 21st Street as well as
Jefferson, residents along these streets were concerned that ingress and egress and subsequent
improvements along these streets would open up an even more direct route through a residential
neighborhood. This concern has been reduced under the latest site plan (drawing dated 1-24-90,
see Exhibit "A") which limits primary access to Jefferson Avenue N.E. Traffic leaving the
development heading north under the revised proposal would now have to exit via Jefferson
Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. Traffic traveling southward would likely travel the same
route, but continue south on Edmonds Avenue N.E.
27. In June of 1989, Public Works evaluated whether N.E. 21st should be evaluated as an alternative to
N.E. 23rd Street. They concluded there was: 1) insufficient right-of-way; and 2) traffic will pass
through a single-family residential area.
28. On September 13, 1989, the Public Works Department reported back to the Council on
improvements it felt were necessary to ensure pedestrian safety due to increased traffic generated
by the subject proposal on September 25, 1989. This report was subsequently referred back to the
Planning and Development Committee for their consideration.
29. The Planning and Development Committee held several meetings to study this matter. On
December 11, 1989, the Planning and Development Committee recommended, and the Council
approved, the following street improvement conditions:
a.The developer will improve the road on its project to city standards from the main entrance
northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into
parking lots. It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated to the city. Sidewalks will be
provided on one side of the street.
b.The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject site to
Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but not be
limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole on this
short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground service to the
duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E. which would
be impacted by the removal of the overhead power and telephone conductors.
c.The developer will install the following school safety improvements:
1.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on the
west side of Jefferson Avenue N.E. with appropriate signing should be required.
2.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on
Harrington Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest
Elementary School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require
appropriate storm drainage.
30. Pursuant to this action, the applicant has proposed to use N.E. 23rd street as a gated emergency
access. Although the City owns 20 feet of right-of-way on the extension of N.E. 23rd Street, not all
of this can be used for improved roadway since a retaining wall has to be built along a portion of it.
The Fire Department, on March 21, 1990, indicated that there is sufficient right-of-way to build the
emergency access provided that the width of the paved portion of the right-of-way is not less than
18 feet wide. The applicants submitted revised plans on March 7, 1990 showing that this
requirement could be met. Further, the applicant retained Terra Associates, Inc. to evaluate the
adequacy of the proposed concrete retaining walls on either side of the roadway. The engineers
determined that the design shown for the roadway improvements could be accomplished.
31. Density calculations which were based upon the PUD formula were originally a subject of dispute.
With the revised PPUD plans, this issue is essentially resolved. The only potential area for dispute
in the current case might be over the choice of contour intervals used in calculating steep slopes
and the subsequent densities allowed. The Building and Zoning Department (now part of the
3-
Community Development Department) had primary jurisdiction for determining the density. It
appears the Department made a reasonable determination of the density in 1985. In addition, its
decision was not disputed at the time.
32. The total number of units, barring slope, street and dedication deductions which could be
accommodated on those portions of the site for which the applicant has requested R1 zoning
would be 48.36, while 72 units could be accommodated on that portion of the site zoned R2, for a
total of 120.36 units on the original 14.06 acre portion of the site currently under consideration.
Dedications would reduce the acreage by approximately 0.85 acres or 5.1 units, and street set
asides would reduce the acreage by 1.6 acres or 9.6 units. The slope formula used by the City
staff, deducting the most acreage due to severe slope, would reduce the development potential by
31.9% or 33.71 units. The total would permit 71.95 units which was just .05 units below the
applicant's request of 72 units.
33. The potential 72 units are planned only for that portion of the site lying to the south and west of
Honey Creek.
34. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the subject proposal
by staff in 1985. Using current standards, we would estimate that the 72 units of multi-family
townhouses and flats would generate approximately 29 school age children. This compares to an
estimated 26 school age children if the site were developed with an estimated 43 single-family
homes.
35. The project, with its 72 units, would generate an estimated 430 vehicle trips per day. Comparisons
were drawn indicating that the development of approximately 43 single-family homes (under
single-family zoning on this site) would generate, at 10.0 AWDTE per dwelling unit a similar amount
of traffic as 72 units at 6.5 AWDTE per dwelling unit (468 vehicle trips per day).
36. The majority of soils found on the site are sandy soils of Class III. Such soils typically imply that
such a site would be susceptible to erosion, earthquake and landslide damage. Slides occurred
while the sewer line was being installed in the creek bed, and other slides and sloughs have
occurred in the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek, both on and off the subject site.
The applicant has addressed this by restricting their development to those portions of the site
having a mean average slope of less than 10 percent. In addition, the use of native vegetation
buffers on steep slopes should be provided to further reduce the likelihood of slides.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The development of the subject site using the PUD provisions of the Building Regulations would
appear to be in the public interest. The unique topography and environment of the subject site can
best be protected by clustering new development on those portions of the site that are less prone
to erosion or landslide damage and staying away from areas having steeper slopes such as along
Honey Creek. The 1982 PUD provisions allow such density clustering when it is in the public
interest. The proposed 72 multi-family units would not produce substantially more traffic than a 43
unit single-family residential development (permitted under the current zoning). The PUD appears
to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally sensitive site, permits the
applicant reasonable use of the site (which is private property) and appears to protect the site's
fragile environment better than most other uses except possibly a park or open space use. The
latter, however, would do little to police the site and reduce unauthorized use of the site by those
dumping litter, shooting off firecrackers, and driving motorcycles across it.
2. The topographical isolation of the site would also appear sufficient to avoid any adverse impacts
from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining properties. Whereas under the 1985
site plan, buildings in the southwest corner of the site were within 90 feet of the western and
southern property lines. Under the latest 1990 site plan, there is at least a 190 foot separation from
the nearest residential building to the southern or western property lines. The housing under this
latest site plan would be clustered and encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be left for
open space purposes.
3. Multi-family dwelling units at this location would allow for more variety and diversity in the existing
neighborhood and allow more housing choices for those who wish to reside in this part of the City,
be they existing or new residents. At this stage, the applicant has not provided a definitive plan for
the different multi-family housing types being proposed. Only a schematic proposal, as is required
for Preliminary PUDs, has been submitted at this time. A breakdown as to unit size, type and
number of bedrooms should be provided for all units and buildings in the PUD.
4. The issue of slope stability has not yet been adequately addressed. While the site seems suitable
from a land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geological underpinnings of the site need to
be more fully explored. With the submission of the Final PUD, the applicant will have to present a
detailed geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers selected with the approval of
both the Department of Community Development and the Public Works Departments. The report
4-
shall include, but not be limited to, information regarding: site stability/slope integrity; preservation
of the ravine and stream close to their current state; long term implications of development on
slope stability; geologic hazard including earthquake analysis; plans for site preparation and
restoration, as well as building construction techniques that will minimize ground instability and/or
subsidence due to settling or erosion. The applicant should be required to provide a slope
easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of ownership and
responsibility if the property is ever sold. Such an easement would permit the PUD ownership,
whether a single entity or a homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on
the steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
5. The access concerns of residents remain even with the scaling down of the proposal from 120
units to 72 units. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but the creation of
a new defacto "through" street - connection along Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue
N.E. to N.E. 16th Street which raises concerns about safety to nearby residents and school age
children. The streets surrounding the subject site to the south were not designed as collector
streets, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. Even with the upgrading of
Jefferson Avenue N.E. and Harrington Avenue N.E. with street improvements, and surface
upgrading, the proposed access to the site may pose some problems to nearby residents since
homes along these streets are located closer to the street than would normally be the case along
collector streets.
6. The applicant's latest proposal, using Jefferson Avenue N.E. for primary access and N.E. 23rd
Street as a gated emergency approach to the site, makes sense now that the City's Fire Marshal
has agreed to accept a roadway width of less than 20 feet on N.E. 23rd Street. Many other
complexes, such as Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe, have one primary entry with an emergency
access which is gated, and some, such as Forest Brook, only have one entry point. With the
elimination of secondary access and the changing of N.E. 23rd Street into emergency access only,
there no longer is a need to keep the previously proposed secondary access along N.E. 21st
Street.
7. The site plan for the Preliminary PUD now appears reasonable and should be approved. (NOTE:
Plans for the Final PUD would have to follow the layout shown in the Preliminary PUD but also be
more detailed and show the requisite open space, recreation areas, and building design details.)
DECISION:
Based upon the above analysis, the Council hereby approves the preliminary P.U.D., File PPUD-015-84,
subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide a detailed geotechnical report with the submission of the final PUD
application. The report shall address site stability/slope integrity; preservation of the ravine and
stream close to their existing state; analyze the long term erosion potential by the development;
identify geologic hazards including earthquake analysis; provide specifics on site preparation and
restoration; and identify appropriate building techniques for the site.
2. The applicant shall construct and maintain gated secondary emergency access along the right-of-
way of N.E. 23rd Street which shall be designed to the satisfaction of the Fire Marshall and Public
Works Director, with a minimum width of 18 feet of paving.
3. The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid
problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such an easement would permit
the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a homeowner/condominium association, to do
maintenance work on the steep slopes below the proposed PUD. In addition, the applicant shall
record covenants running with the land requiring that the slope on the west side of Honey Creek
be maintained as closely as is possible in its natural state.
4. The applicant shall improve the road on its project to City standards from the main entrance
northward and just beyond the hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into parking lots.
The roadway shall be dedicated to the City. Sidewalks will be provided on one side of the street.
5. The applicant shall improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson Avenue N.E. from subject site to
Harrington Avenue N.E., as follows:
1.Provide new street construction to city standards which will include but not be
limited to curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting.
2.Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and telephone pole on this
short segment of Jefferson Avenue N.E. and provide underground service to the
duplex and four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E. which would
be impacted by the removal of the overhead power and telephone conductors.
5-
6. The applicant shall install the following school safety improvements:
a.A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing Harrington Avenue N.E. on the west
side of Jefferson Avenue N.E.,with appropriate signing, should be required.
b.Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting on Harrington
Avenue N.E., south side, from Jefferson Avenue N.E. to the Hillcrest Elementary School
parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would also require appropriate storm drainage.
7. The submittal of detailed plans for the final PUD, providing a description of the usable open space,
recreation and building details.
8. The final PUD shall comply with relevant City PUD review criteria (contained in Section 4-15-5 and
4-15-10 of the City Code) as they pertain to: separation of pedestrian and vehicular circulation;
privacy within and between units; preservation of views and natural features; siting of carports
and/or garages; treatment of exterior building surfaces for aesthetic and durability reasons;
lighting; signage; and landscaping.
9. The applicant shall comply with all existing and any subsequent mitigation conditions imposed by
the City's responsible SEPA official, the Environmental Review Committee.
10. The applicant shall submit a detailed tree inventory and landscaping and on-site improvements
plan acceptable to the Community Development Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD.
11. The applicant shall submit plans and bonds for all on and off site improvements stipulated by the
Public Works Department, including those improvements identified in their memo of September 13,
1990 to the Council.
12. The applicant shall submit a detailed construction impact mitigation plan acceptable to the
Community Development Department prior to submittal of the Final PUD.
13. The applicant shall work with Community Development and Parks and Recreation Department staff
to develop appropriate on-site recreation facilities for future residents prior to submittal of the Final
PUD.
14. The final PUD shall comply with the time limits for PUDs as set forth in Section 4-15-11.F. of the
City Code.

DATE: May 31, 1990
TO: Rento City Council
FROM: nneth E. Nyberg, Director
SUB,Honey Creek PPUD
STAFF CONTACT: Larry Springer/Don Erickson
The attached material is provided for your background and information relevant to the
public hearing on the subject PPUD which is scheduled for public hearing on Monday,
June 4th. Included in the attached data is a staff report dated May 29th which provides
some background, and addresses several topics which have been at issue in this PPUD
and makes a recommendation that council approve the PPUD with five conditions. The
site plan for the proposed PPUD is also included in exhibit A. If Council chooses to
accept the staff recommendation and approve this PPUD , there is a record of decision
which Council can refer to the Ways and Means Committee that would complete this
action. The Record of Decision is labeled Exhibit B. Finally, there are exhibits from
the Fire Department (Exhibit C & E) and the Public Works Department (Exhibit D).
The PPUD has a history of over five years of processing, caused primarily by efforts to
mitigate and re-design the project to accommodate both location and topographical
problems. Given the long history of this project, it's complexity and some recent
modifications, Council felt it appropriate to hold another public hearing. This has been
scheduled for June 4th. To assist Council, a chronology of the project is shown as pages
1 thru 4 of Exhibit B of this report.
When Council last considered the PPUD, the remaining issues were reduced to access to
the site and the hearing of June 4th has been so advertised.
Both Staff and the City Attorney will be available on Monday night , June 4th, to
answer any specific questions about the current status of the project application.

SUBJECT: THE REMOVAL OF A PORTION OF N.E. 27TH STREET(DEVIL'S
ELBOW) FROM THE ROLLS OF CITY STREETS
N.E. 27th Street (Devil's Elbow), from a point 350 feet East of Edmonds Avenue N.E. to
122nd Avenue S.E. (on the east side of Honey Creek), has been closed for the past three
years. The problem causing the closure is earth slides at a number of points along that
roadway within the area of closure.
Geotechnical investigations have been done to determine the repairs necessary to bring the
street into compliance with Renton's current street construction standards, and to make it
safe for the general public. It has been determined that the nature of those repairs would
be heroic in nature and extremely costly, and that an alternative to repairing that section of
street, perhaps a bridge, would provide for greater public safety.
Since traffic and emergency response patterns have been established and confirmed over the
past three years, the described portion of N.E. 27th Street can remain closed until an
acceptable, safe, alternative can be found. Therefore, N.E. 27th Street from a point 350
east of Edmonds Avenue N.E. to 122nd Avenue S.E. will remain closed and will be
removed from the rolls of active City streets. The inactive right-of-way will remain, and
the east access will be kept open for emergency and utility use, as it is now.

O /S ry
Citizen Comment: Gross - Susan Gross, 15807 SE 171st Place, Renton, requested assistance from the
WSDOT, I-405 S-Curve City regarding the demolition of the houses on Renton Hill which are to be
Project destroyed for the I-405 S-curve project. She stated that some of the houses
have been vacant since last August and noted that these houses have suffered
from vandalism and/or transients living in the vacant houses. She added that
she had contacted the State office and received unsatisfactory answers as to
when the demolition would be completed. Ms. Gross expressed concern for
the remaining residents in the area who are subjected to the vandalism and
transients as a result of the unfinished project. Councilwoman Keolker-
Wheeler requested Administration look into this matter and contact the state
to get some satisfactory answers. Mayor Clymer advised that he is scheduled
to meet with Ron Johnson of the Washington State Department of
Transportation on Wednesday, May 23rd to discuss these concerns.
Councilman Stredicke questioned if the City has regulations pertaining to
vacated houses. City Attorney Warren answered that some regulations exist
which could be reviewed by the Building Department.
Further discussion from the audience concluded that the only solution to the
problem is to demolish the abandoned houses as soon as possible.
Councilman Edwards questioned what authority the Renton Police
Department had to cite people who are illegally present on the property.
Mayor Clymer agreed to review the matter.
Citizen Comment: Webb - Sandy Webb, 430 Mill Avenue South, Renton, added that there is no order to
1-405 S-Curve Project the way the houses are being taken down and suggested that the houses be
demolished in sequence. He reiterated that the state either gives no answers
or unsatisfactory answers regarding the current issues. He reported examples
of possible violations of City Code regarding improper land use and zoning.
Councilwoman Zimmerman recalled a meeting recently attended by the
Mayor and Council members regarding the homes to be demolished and
jurisdiction being removed from the City. She requested that the Mayor
discuss the concerns over the jurisdiction of these homes when he attends the
meeting on Wednesday with WSDOT.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler requested Council receive periodic update
information regarding the S-curve project.
Citizen Comment: Murray Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton, referred to a public hearing
Honey Creek PPUD scheduled for 6/4/90, regarding the Honey Creek Preliminary Planned Unit
015-84 Development (PPUD-015-84). He requested that the public hearing before
the City Council be postponed until a public hearing has been scheduled and
held before the hearing examiner to review major changes to the PPUD. He
cited the following changes: location and number of foundations; location of
interior roadways; size and location of interior recreation areas; emergency
access plans as currently proposed are unbuildable due to encroachment on
neighboring property for construction purposes; alteration of traffic flow on
rl the local neighborhood access has been changed from 23rd and Jefferson to
Jefferson. Mr. Murray called attention to City Code which requires that the
hearing examiner hold a public hearing for major changes in a revision to a
PPUD, and stated that he felt the project should be reviewed by the hearing
examiner to determine conformance to City Code and document the concerns
of the public in an open forum.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler asked City Attorney Warren about the
jurisdiction of this project. She noted that because the Honey Creek Project
was begun several years ago, it was for the benefit of the new Council
members to hear testimony in its entirety at Council rather than reading from
a written document from the hearing examiner. Attorney Warren explained
that the Council retained jurisdiction over the topic after an appeal had been
filed regarding the emergency access on NE 23rd. He noted that several
meetings had taken place regarding this issue and the Committee wished to
make sure that the neighborhood had an opportunity to be heard on what
type of improvements were necessary due to all the traffic being carried on a
I single access street. He reported that he was unaware of any new plans being
submitted that may or may not be a major modification to the PPUD. He
further stated that those changes must go before the hearing examiner as per
City Code, but this matter is presently retained in the Council's jurisdiction
and has been so for the past 18 months.
1
May 21, 1990 nton City Council Minutes Pane 152
Councilwoman Zimmerman questioned the public's right of appeal when
heard by the Council as compared to being heard by the hearing examiner.
Attorney Warren answered that if the hearing were held by the hearing
examiner, the public has the right of appeal to the City Council. He added
that if the Council heard the hearing, the appeal would then be to the courts.
He stated that through the hearing examiners system, the appeal process is
internalized as long as possible to give citizens, as well as developers, at least
two opportunities locally to appeal.
Citizen Comment: Hellene Tom Hellene, 18233 - 141st Avenue SE, Renton, referred to recent articles in
North Soos Creek the newspaper regarding the annexation of the Cascade Vista, Petrovisky and
Fairwood) Annexation Fairwood areas. He expressed concern about the statements of substantial
increase in opposition and no real support for the annexation. He stated that
until there are firm answers, there is very little for a proponent to determine
the appropriateness of the annexation. On the other hand, the opposition has
a few facts, which are inaccurate. He referred to the Fairwood Flyer of
April 15, 1990, which contained inaccurate information regarding the
annexation issue. Mr. Hellene has developed a response to misinformation
contained in the flyer which he felt contributes to the increased opposition.
He stressed that the silence from the proponents and opposition from
opponents need to be put in perspective.
Citizen Comment: Marla McNeese, 12243 SE 184th, Petrovisky area, stated that she had gone
McNeese - North Soos door-to-door in her neighborhood with a petition against annexation and
Creek (Fairwood) obtained 90 signatures. She stated that she likes living in the county and has
Annexation nothing against the City of Renton, but she is against the annexation.

Councilman Edwards suggested that staff study the problem and possibly
arrive at a solution for view protection. MOVED BY EDWARDS,
SECONDED BY STREDICKE, COUNCIL REFER THIS MATTER TO THE
PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE. CARRIED.
Following discussion, Council asked that Administration review the project
and report back to Council next week and include a review by the City
Attorney's office. Also, the report should include zoning requirements and
regulations for setbacks.
Councilman Tanner stated that the project would not be subject to future
action or ordinance. He did not want to establish any false hopes for the
concerned parties.
Upon Council inquiry as to whether there is a 14-day appeal period after a
permit is issued for single family residence or any recourse for a neighbor,
Assistant City Attorney Fontes responded that an appeal may be filed only if
the building is being built contrary to the original plans or violates fire or
building codes.
There was further Council inquiry regarding height of trees/vegetation on
City right-of-way or City property. Administration will report back to
Council.
Citizen Comment: Webb - Sandy Webb, 430 Mill Avenue South, Renton, cited the hearing examiner's
Boeing FEIS Appeal report regarding the Boeing FEIS and disagreed with the report. He stated
that the FEIS is flawed, the mitigation measures inadequate, and the citizens
did not receive the rights they were intended or the protection they deserve.
For the record, Assistant City Attorney Fontes stated that the report from the
office of the hearing examiner dated 5/11/90, did not match the report read
by Mr. Webb.
Citizen Comment: Earl Westlund, 1420 NW Gilman Boulevard, Suite 2351, Issaquah, President
Westlund - Property of Custom Showcase Builders, Incorporated, builder of home next door to Ms.
View Obstruction Bergeron's home, explained that the front part of the house is a single story
home, and the second story is set back 16 feet. The major interference will
be the roof that is on the front of the house, and he has attempted to
preserve as much of the view as possible in developing the custom plans. He
requested that any correspondence on this matter be forwarded to him.
CONSENT AGENDA Items on the consent agenda are adopted by one motion which follows the
listing. At Council request, items 6.c., Mayor's reappointment to Park Board
and item 6.d., Mayor's reappointment to Library Board, were removed for

VIA:Mayor E., mer
SUBJECT: Storm Da .ge to the Honey Creek Sewer Line
In a recent inspection we found considerable erosion in the Honey Creek basin resulting
from the January 9th storm. The erosion has undermined and exposed the Honey Creek
sewer interceptor line in several locations, creating a need for immediate repairs.
Some temporary repairs have been made to keep the sewer line in service, but additional
restoration work is necessary to assure the integrity of the line. The situation is serious,
another storm could cause the loss of this important sewer line.
We have contacted the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to include this
restoration work on its list for Federal/State aide. However, until that office is prepared to
provide assistance the burden falls on the City to undertake the necessary repairs.
I believe the extent of repair and restoration work necessary and the severity of damage
warrants immediate action and request that you introduce to Council a motion to declare
this situation an emergency. This will allow the Public Works Department to immediately
identify and secure funding and to proceed with a negotiated construction contract to
provide permanent repairs and relieve the threat to the sewer line.

RE: Honey Creek PUD - PUD Hearing
File FPUD-015-86
Dear Mr. Jacobson:
This letter places in writing items we have discussed with
respect to the upcoming public hearing for the Honey Creek
PUD. Our conversations during the past two weeks have
focused on the amount of time City staff will require in
preparing a complete report to the City Council as well as
the timing of the public hearing . With respect to the
public hearing, you had originally been trying to obtain a
hearing before the City Council on February 5, 1990.
However, since you have only recently been able to reach the
project architect and will not be ready to submit the plans
to the City until next Thursday, January 25th, we agreed the
February 5th hearing date is no longer feasible. As we
discussed, the specific hearing date depends upon several
factors.
First, City staff needs sufficient time to review the
revised project package to ensure that the information
submitted is complete and all concerns raised by the City
have been addressed. Following staff's review, there may be
revisions you wish to make to the submittal package or staff
may have questions requiring additional information. As we
discussed, it may be helpful for key staff reviewers to meet
with you at the time you propose submitting the revised
plan. I will be in touch with you regarding a meeting time
next Thursday or Friday (January 25 or 26th) .
Second, the interested parties of record need to review the
revised plans as arranged or agreed to on December 7 , 1989 ,
when the Planning and Development Committee last met on the
project and the owners made it known that they would like to
make revisions to the site plan. This would need to occur
as soon as possible once the plans are submitted.
200 Mill Avenue South - Renton, Washington 98055 - (206)235-2550
Facsimile (206) 235-2513
Finally, the City Council on December 11, 1989, adopted an
outline of steps to be followed prior to the Council setting
a public hearing on the P.U.D. application. I have attached
a copy of the minutes from the meeting for your review.
Once we are able to meet and review the revised submittal
package, we will be able to establish a timeline for the
review of the project by the City Council . I look forward
meeting with you next week.
If to you have any questions, please feel free to call me at
235-2550.

3. While there may be somb non-compliance with the Comprehensive Plan evident on
the south boundary, the proposal provides reasonable separation on the west where
separately owned, single family zoned and developed uses are located. The
proposed R-1 zoning is a continuation of the existing zoning patterns and
reasonably complements it. So while the proposed location of the R-2 zoning does
not follow strict orthodox land use practices, the consequences of divergence are
not really a problem. The location is sufficiently isolated from adjoining properties
by it's unique topography to cause little concern about adverse or undue effects of
such a district on neighboring property. The plateau lies approximately 75 to 100
feet lower than the southerly properties, thereby creating a discrete environment
and neighborhood.
4. While the proposed location for the R-2 district would provide certain density
bonuses to the applicant, the zoning does not appear to adversely affect
neighboring properties and is compatible with those policies of the Comprehensive
Plan which look for topographical barriers to provide buffers between distinct
zoning categories. The bonus it may provide the applicant is obviously a trade-off
to protect the stream environment, while allowing the applicant reasonable
development of private property.
Proposed R-1 District
5.The three areas proposed for R-1 zoning appear generally compatible with similar
single family designations made in the Comprehensive Plan. But, given the distinct
geologic hazard idenitified on the State maps, Class III soils type, which identify
the site as very unstable, it may be premature to discuss the easterly side of the
stream where the applicant has not proposed any particular development. The
proposed PPUD for the westerly acreage permits hazards to be avoided by shifting
development. At present, that cannot be said for the easterly R-I zones proposed.
Until the applicant can provide geotechnical studies demonstrating the suitablity
for development on the steeper areas and even the more gentle plateaus, the
zoning should be limited to G-1, the category automatically applied if the site
were annexed.
There are substantial steep slopes along the eastern edge of Honey Creek within
the perimeter of the two proposed R-1 areas, and R-1 zoning under the
circumstances is premature. If the site were G-1 instead of classified R-1 as
requested, then the zoning would be the same as those areas confined within the
steeper Honey Creek ravine, which appears appropriate. When the site's isolation
from emergency services is considered it does not seem at all unreasonable to
leave the site with G-1 zoning. The possibility for rezoning in the future is not
foreclosed and can be considered in light of changed conditions and additional
information pertaining to the geology of the site.
6. The last area proposed for R-1 zoning is the portion which wraps around the
proposed R-2 district on the west and south. This area is more-or-less "L" shaped.
It follows the western and southern property lines of the site. As discussed above
in the R-2 analysis, it continues the adjacent western R-1 district onto the subject
site and acts to buffer the less intense single family uses to the west from the
proposed R-2 zone. This area also marks that portion of the site which makes the
transition from the Highlands relatively level topography to the steep topography
adjacent to Honey Creek. These are the slopes above the proposed R-2 zone.
7.This R-1 zoning appears generally compatible with the designation in the
Comprehensive Plan and again, it continues the existing single family zoning
pattern west of the site to the site.
Proposed G-1 District
8. The G-1 zoning proposed for the Honey Creek stream course and ravine system
appears appropriate. Under current zoning practice in the City, G-1 provides the
least intense residential density criterium of any zoning district. It would be
compatible with the other proposed districts for the subject site, namely R-1 and
R-2. As proposed, it would serve to protect those areas designated greenbelt on
the Comprehensive Plan, and in that regard, it is quite compatible with the
Comprehensive Plan. The request actually would coincide with the zoning the site
would attain, if the Council took no prior action, since the property would
automatically enter the City with G-1 zoning. As indicated above, this G-1 zoning
would be contiguous with the G-1 zoning which the recommendation to deny the
easterly R-1 districts would create.

PRELIMINARY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
9. The development of the subject site as a PUD appears to servo the public use and
interest. The unique topography and environment of the subject site can only be
enhanced by clustering and designing around the steep slopes and Honey Creek.
The 72 units would not produce substantially more traffic than a single family
neighborhood. The topographical isolation would appear sufficient to avoid any
adverse impacts from incompatible housing types or densities on adjoining
properties. At this stage the applicant has not provided a definitive plan for
housing typos, only a schematic proposal as is required for Preliminary PUDs. The
housing would be clustered and encircle the level westerly plateau, which would be
left for open space purposes. Two story stacked flats would be located along the
eastern portion of the site while townhouse units would be located near the
southwest corner of the site closer to the developed o its Tho.4ala
appear a reasonable approach and should be ap rovid. Final plans would have to be
Zi5rirddrailiFd and provide the requisite open space, recreation and building details.
10. The issue of slope stability cannot be ignored. While the site seems suitable from a
land use perspective for a PUD of 72 units, the geol0 ll...nderDinnino&nf h e sitg...
could conceivably modify_ thlief. ,LWiTh the submission of the Final PUDtheapplicantwillhavetopresentadetailedgeotechnicalanalysispreparedby
independent engineers selected with the approval of both the Building and Zoning
and the Public Works Departments. The report shall Include but not be limited to`"
information regarding: site stability/slope integrity: preservation on the ravine and
stream close to their current state: long term implications of development on
rosion potential: geologic hazard including earthquake analysis: site preparation
nd restoration: and building techniques.
11. The PUD appears to present a reasonable method of developing an environmentally
sensitive site, permits the applicant reasonable use of the site, which is private
property, and appears_to protect the fragile environment rThe applicant shout —
required to provide a sTope easement to the ultimate owners of the PUD property
to avoid problems of ownership and responsibility if the property is over sold. Such
an easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single entity or a
homeowners/condominium association, to do maintenance work on the steep slopes
below the proposed PUD.
ACCESS
12. The access concerns of residents remain oven with the scaling down of the
proposal. It is not just the increased population of the subject proposal, but the
creation of a new defecto through street - the connection of Jefferson and 21st
which raises many concerns. The streets surrounding the subject site are not
collector roads, and in their current state should not be utilized as such. The
connection of Jefferson to Kirkland as .a through street will provide a loss
circuitous access from the Sunset area to the west and I-405. While the small
residential neighborhood now serves as such a link, its narrow, partially paved
streets should not be made more attractive by a clear cross town route. Without
substantial upgrading of roads which require width improvements, property
acquisition and surface upgrading, the proposed access is inappropriate. It might
still be inappropriate even with upgrading due to its effects on the residents along
21st, Harrington P1, and 23rd, since these streets were never intended to carry
through traffic, and homes are located closer to the street than would normally be
the case along collector streets.
13. with the information presented, this Office is not convinced that the through
connection of Jefferson/21st would serve the public use and interest. As a matter
of fact the opposite appears true, it is not in the public interest. While it is
obvious that the inclusion of the roadway appropriately named Devils Elbow into
the City was purposely avoided to avoid maintenance responsibilities, access, at
least secondary access to the subject site if it is really needed at all, could be via
this route. It was the access method proposed at the annexation hearings before
the City Council and remained the applicant's original choice until the ERC
review, and the ERC review did not have the benefit of public input. Conflicting
figures submitted regarding potential road grade do not weigh more heavily for one
method over the other. The grades appear comparable.

22. The proposal for the rezoning has not changed and includes property on both sides
of Honey Creek. The applicant proposes reclassifying approximately 6.0 acres to
R-2; approximately 29 acres to R-1 and approximately 12.7 acres to G-1. (See
attached map). The R-2 property would be located on the southwestern plateau
approximately 75 feet below the surrounding grade, approximately 190 feet north
of the south property line, and approximately 190 foot oast of the west property
line. Three separate areas are proposed for R-1 zoning. One of the R-1 districts
proposed by the applicant would be approximately 'L' shaped. It is the property at
the extreme southwest corner of the subject site and would be bounded by R-1
zoning on the west and R-2 zoning on the south. That district would be
approximately 8.06 acres. The other proposed R-1 districts would be located on
the east side of Honey Creek. One area would be along the north end of the
subject site and would be approximately 16.14 acres. The other R-1 zone would be
along the eastern perimeter of the subject site and would be approximately 4.81
acres. The G-1 zone proposed by the applicant would include the stream bed of
Honey Creek together with a largo percentage of the steep side hills and ravines
above Honey Creek, and tributary ravines.
23. No population projections or school age student projections were made for the
subject proposal by staff. The project with its 72 units would generate an
estimated 430 vehicle trips per day. Comparisons were drawn indicating that the
development of approximately 43 single family homes, the potential under single
family zoning on this site, would generate a similar amount of traffic.
24. The site is apparently subject to slides. Slides have occurred while the sewer line
was being installed in the creek bed, and other slides and sloughs have occurred in
the past along the steep walls above Honey Creek, both on and off the subject site.
The soils are sandy soils of Class III, making the site quite susceptible to erosion,
earthquake and landslide damage.
25. The proposed emergency access at N.E. 23rd Street has a proposed width of 12
feet, whereas the required minimum standard is 20 feet. Authority to waive the
requirement was not shown.
CONCLUSIONS
REZONE
1.The proponent of a rezone must demonstrate that the request is in the public
interest, it will not impair the public health, safety and welfare and in addition,
complies with at least one of the three criteria found in Section 4-3010, which
provides in part that:
a. The subject site has not been considered in a previous area-wide rezone or
land use analysis; or
b. The subject site is potentially designated for the new classification per the
Comprehensive Plan; or
c. There has been a material and substantial change in the circumstances in
the area in which the subject site is located since the last rezoning of the
property or area.
While the map and some policy elements of the Comprehensive Plan do not entirely
justify the requested zoning, the topographic isolation of the subject site would
appear to support portions of the request. The potential soils' problems would
appear to require additional information for those portions of the site not part of
the proposed PPUD.
Proposed R-2 District
2. The area that has been proposed for R-2 zoning does not appear to be located in
the area strictly designated for low density multi-family dwelling units per the
Comprehensive Plan. While the Comprehensive Plan designates the southern area
of the subject site for duplex-type housing stock, the area proposed is
approximately 200 feet north of the southern property lino. The major rationale in
the Comprehensive Plan would appear to be that the area so designated is a
continuation of existing zoning patterns, that is, an R-2 zoning district is located
immediately south of the subject site. As proposed,' the rezone is some 200 feet
north of the existing R-2 zone, and in fact, separated from it by proposed R-1
zoning. The request would carve out a new and independent R-2 zone in the midst
of single family and extremely low density single family zoning. But on the whole,
this does not seem unreasonable given the topographical separation of the various
areas.

Subject: Honey Creek PUD - Emergency Access
Dear Mr. Jacobson:
Please be advised we have reviewed the proposed emergency
access plan on N.E. 23rd Street submitted to the City in the
last week of December, 1989.
As you are aware, there are only twenty feet of right-of-way
available for the access and the roadway width is required
by ordinance to be twenty feet. The slope of the rockery as
proposed, only leaves fifteen feet of roadway width, which
is unacceptable.
We would suggest that you investigate a vertical concrete
retaining wall with the following general configuration.
Fence may be needed for safety
1 --
r__ Use curbing to direct drainage
It was our understanding in the last Council Sub-Committee
meeting (12-7-89) , that you could build a retaining facility
that would not use up more than eighteen inches of roadway.
Please reevaluate the emergency access and resubmit a
proposal that we can recommend and support to the City
Council.
Very truly yours,
4F.

RE: Honey Creek PUD
Dear Don: I,(,hl' ,liv f.
I was recently out with some employees of the Parks Department 4iviewingpropertylocatedalongHoneyCreek. They indicated to me
that the developer on the Honey Creek PUD had spoken with them.
Apparently the developer has agreed to dedicate the stream and
property on either side of the stream to the Parks Department for
use as a trail corridor. As I understand it, at least one bank is `y'"2%
already burdened with a sewer line easement. Since your .
department is responsible for drafting the proposed findings,

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT PLANNING DIVISION
CITY OF RENTON
TO: Renton City Council
DEC 1 21989
FROM: Planning and Development Committee
RECEIVED
RE: Honey Creek PUD
The committee met twice on the Honey .Creek PUD, with the last
meeting being held on December 7 , 1989 . The committee was to meet
on the access problems concerning the project, particularly the
inability to expand N.E . 23rd to a full city street. The committee
was to assess alternative street plans . The committee was presented
with the following street plan which the developer has agreed to:
Emergency Access .
The city owns twenty feet of right-of-way on the extension of N.E.
23rd. The fire department has indicated that that is sufficient
right-of-way to build emergency access . There are two reasons why
twenty feet of paved surface are not necessary. First, the twenty
feet of paved surface normally anticipates two-way traffic . There
will be one-way traffic only. Second, there will be no structures
adjacent to the twenty foot emergency access so there will be no
need for the fire department to stop its vehicle and set it up to
fight fires , an additional reason why twenty foot access is normally
desirable. For these reasons, there is more than adequate right-of-
way available with twenty feet, even if the developer is required to
build retaining walls .
Street Improvements :
1 . The developer will improve the road on its project to city
standards from the main entrance northward and just beyond the
hairpin turn to the point at which the road turns into parking
lots . It is anticipated that the road will be dedicated to the
city. g c- 9-eet 40,5 /t EGG
2 . The developer will improve the off-site roadway, Jefferson
Avenue N.E. from subject site to Harrington Avenue N.E . , as
follows :
a. Provide new street construction to city standards which
will include but not be limited to curbs, gutters,
sidewalks and street lighting.
b. Negotiate the removal of the single combination power and
telephone pole on this short segment of Jefferson Avenue
N.E. and provide underground service to the duplex and
four-plex located at 2011 and 2012 Jefferson Avenue N.E .
which would be impacted by the removal of the overhead
power and telephone conductors .

Planning and Development Committee Report
Honey Creek PUD
3 . The developer will install the following school safety
improvements :
a. A thermoplastic marked school crosswalk crossing
Harrington Avenue N.E. on the west side of Jefferson
Avenue N.E . with appropriate signing should be required.
b . Approximately 550 feet of raised curb, gutter, sidewalk
and street lighting on Harrington Avenue N.E. , south side,
from Jefferson Avenue N.E . to the Hillcrest Elementary
School parking lot entrance. The raised curbing would
also require appropriate storm drainage.
The developer has indicated that it wishes to replace several of the
buildings on the project and the staff has indicated that it
believes that this is a major modification to the PUD. The Planning
and Development Committee believes that the project has gone through
so many changes and the council has received so much information
that a full compilation of what has occurred needs to be undertaken .
Therefore, the Planning and Development Committee of the City
Council recommends as follows :
11 . A staff report shall be prepared setting forth the factual
background of this PPUD and establishing findings of fact,
conclusions, and a proposed decision. The format used shall be
essentially that used by the hearing examiner.
2 . The staff ' s proposal will be tendered to the city council and
the council will establish a public hearing date on the
modifications to the PUD and the proposed changes to the
traffic plan.
3 . The staff report will be presented to the hearing examiner at
the same time it is presented to the city council . The hearing
examiner shall have two weeks to review the report for
completeness and accuracy and make recommendations to the city
council, if any, for additions, corrections, or deletions to
the proposed staff report.

referred 3/13/89). The Utilities Committee met with staff to discuss options
for sanitary sewer service in the Sierra Heights community which annexed in
June, 1987.
Working with one sewer design configuration to serve the annexed area, staff
explored five LID funding options that featured different service areas
allowable connections), including service to properties located outside the
annexation area. The preliminary LID cost estimates for a typical 8,400
square foot lot ranged from $13,500 for the basic annexed area to $6,200 if
all properties in the service area (e.g. those adjacent to the sewer line) were
assessed. The service area includes properties in the county that could
connect to the sewer line and share in the assessment if approved by the
King County Boundary Review Board and the City Council. The alternative
for those residents outside the City would be a latecomer charge when
connecting to the sewer at a future date.
The Public Works Department recommended the following steps to further
determine the interest and support for an LID to provide sewer service:
1. To discuss with key community representatives the need and level of
support for a sewer LID;
2. To perform a postcard poll of the residents in the service area in
January, 1990; and
3. Report to Committee the results of the community response.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: November 28, 1989
TO: Gary Norris, Traffic Engineering
FROM: Glen G. Gordon - Fire Marshal
SUBJECT: Honeycreek PUD - Fire Department Emergency Access
Gary:
This is in follow-up to our meeting this date with Skip Jacobson, Project Coordinator
for Honeycreek PUD. The Fire Department will accept the proposed 20 foot access off
of Northeast 23rd Street, less that required for the bulkhead. For clarification, there
will be no cross traffic over this access road, nor no construction next to this access
road.

CITY OF RENTON
CURRENT ``PLANNING`,:DIVIf;ION'
MEMORANDUM
DATE: November 22, 1989
TO: Larry Springer
Planning Manager
FROM: Don Erickson
Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT: Honey Creek P.U.D. File Review
A thorough review of the P.U.D. file could take one person
working full time three or four days to complete with another day
to summarize their results. Since staff have other
responsibilities I would assume I could only direct someone to
spend half their time on this project. Therefore I estimate
conservatively 10 working days or two weeks. Assume work began
on December 4th we could expect to have this work completed by
December 18, 1989 .
Time Schedule for E.I .S. , Conditional Use Permit, and
Supplemental Environmental Reviews.
This item should only take a day tc draft and another day or so
to lay out in draft form. Since Jerry Lind is out the remainder
of this week I would feel better telling you we could have
something by the end of the day on Monday, December 4th.
I would expect to have something drawn out enough by the end of
this week.
If you have any questions on this or want me to reprioritize our
work to expedite this further please let me know.
Thanks.

Citizen Comment: Webb - Sanford Webb, 430 Mill Avenue South, Renton, indicated concern that
Gifts from Sister City generosity extended by residents of Nishiwaki is not being reciprocated by
the City. He felt that if the City does not intend to respond in kind, gifts
from Nishiwaki should be declined. Mayor Clymer pointed out that because
State law prohibits the use of City funds for this purpose, reciprocal gifts
have been provided by Renton officials at their own expense; the gifts from
Japan are given to the City, not to individuals, and are on display in public
facilities; and Nishiwaki officials have been apprised of the laws regarding
use of City funds to purchase gifts, and would be offended if the City
refused them.

OLD BUSINESS
Council President Stredicke asked whether the abandoned vehicle, reportedCitizenComment: Vaupel by Versie Vaupel at the Council meeting of 7/17/89, has been removedfromAbandonedVehiclesthestreetinherneighborhood. Mayor Clymer reported that the vehicle
owner has been notified of the violation by the Police Department and the
car will be towed if not removed immediately. Ile conveyed information
from the police department that although City law states that the car can be
towed within 24 hours, the notification procedure usually takes about10days.
Then the owner has the right to a hearing before the hearing examiner.
If the examiner finds that proper procedures were not followed by the City,the City can be liable for payment of all towing and storage fees. Upon

OLD BUSINESS Council President Stredicke asked whether the abandoned vehicle, reported
Citizen Comment: Vaupel by Versie Vaupel at the Council meeting of 7/17/89, has been removed from
Abandoned Vehicles the street in her neighborhood. Mayor Clymer reported that the vehicle
owner has been notified of the violation by the Police Department and the
car will be towed if not removed immediately. He conveyed information
from the police department that although City law states that the car can be
towed within 24 hours, the notification procedure usually takes about 10
days. Then the owner has the right to a hearing before the hearing examiner.
If the examiner finds that proper procedures were not followed by the City,
the City can be liable for payment of all towing and storage fees. Upon
further inquiry, Mayor Clymer was uncertain as to whether a citation had
been placed on the vehicle.
Streets: Valley Councilwoman Mathews indicated that the Valley Transportation Committee
Transportation Benefit has continued to meet regarding the formation of a transportation benefit
District (South King district (TBD) in the Valley with other jurisdictions. She indicated that a
County) favorable response was received recently from the Transportation
Improvement Board (TIB) in Olympia when the Valley Transportation
Committee presented the concept of a Valley TBD including proposed
boundaries and a list of projects. Ms. Mathews reported the intent of the
TBD Committee to submit applications to the TIB in September for projects
within its boundaries.
PUD: Preliminary, Honey Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler discussed the Honey Creek PUD, which was
Creek, PPUD-015-84 not allowed to proceed on 6/19/89 when Council decided to take no further
action to acquire right-of-way on NE 23rd Street to provide full access to the
site. She recalled concerns of neighbors who were originally in favor of the
development as an improvement to discourage crime, dumping, and
motorcycle access in the area; and cited the original recommendation by the
hearing examiner for improvement of NE 23rd to emergency access
i standards. Ms. Keolker-Wheeler indicated that it was Council that required
full improvement of NE 23rd Street, resulting in pursuit of condemnation of
property owned by the Cormans to provide the necessary right of way width.
Council President Stredicke opposed taking action on the matter this date
without sending proper notification to all parties of record, and preferred
that the matter be discussed at a public hearing or meeting. MOVED BY
KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY REED, THAT THE CITY

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 19, 1989
TO: Mayor Earl Clymer
Members of the City Council
RECEIVED
FROM: Kenneth E. Nyberg
Community Development Director ANN 19 1989
RE: Honey Creek PUD CITY OF RENiuN
N.E. 23rd Street CITY COUNCIL
File R-014-85, PPUD-015-85
PROBLEM
The City, as a result of a recent court decision on the condemnation of N.E. 23rd Street, must
determine whether the decision made by the City Council to require N.E. 23rd Street as a
second means of access for the Honey Creek PUD development should stand or be replaced
with a condition requiring that N.E. 23rd Street be used only as a gated secondary emergency
access for the development.
ISSUES
Code Requirements:
The Renton Municipal Code requires all developments to have direct access to a City street
from a development. The Fire Code requires the provision of a fire apparatus access road and
when a complex has three or more buildings located more than two hundred (200) feet from a
public road, the Fire Code requires two (2) means of access for a development. Generally, an
attempt is made to separate the access roadway from the primary access point to the
development to ensure emergency access to a development in case the primary access point is
closed during an emergency. The City has allowed developments to have one primary access
point and allowing the second access to be identified as gated secondary emergency access
provided that the access meets the minimum Fire Code standards (20 feet in width and paved).
In the City two examples of developments having one primary access with a gated emergency
access are Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe.
Access Alternatives:
Access has been a major issue for the development. Over time, as a community develops, it
may find that development patterns allowed in the past create problems as infill parcels are
developed. Such is the case with the subject development (Phase I). In this case, the property
is surrounded by low density multiple family developments to the south and single family

t

residential developments to the west and a ravine to the north and east. The roadway network
developed in the area over time has segments with sufficient right-of-way while other segments
have insufficient right-of-way. Further, several of the roadways are, by current standards are
substandard.
Alternative access points for the development, in addition to the Jefferson Avenue N.E. access,
have been analyzed. The following briefly discusses these earlier alternatives:
a.N.E. 21st Street
The development of N.E. 21st Street was considered. As with other alternatives,
development of the roadway would require additional right-of-way and
upgrading of roadways not only along the N.E. 21st corridor but also Harrington
Place N.E. The result will be carrying the development traffic through a larger
portion of the single family area west of the site than other suggested
alternatives.
b.N.E. 27th Street (Devils Elbow)
This alternative has been reviewed several times. The development of access
from this roadway is not a viable alternative due to the instability of the
roadway. At this time, it is not safe for either primary access or emergency
access.
c.N.E. 23rd Street
This alternative provides a route which impacts the single family neighborhood
less than the N.E. 21st alternative and provides a more direct route for
emergency vehicles attempting to service the development. Ideally, this roadway
should be developed, in addition to Jefferson, to allow two points of access for
the daily traffic generated by the development. Should a decision be made not to
develop the access to allow daily traffic, consideration should be given to
developing the existing right-of-way as a gated emergency access point.
The latter decision, as with the development of a full access point along this
right-of-way, may require additional property and/or slope easements in order to
provide sufficient bank stabilization on either side of the roadway. The need for
bank stabilization will depend upon the design of the roadway based upon
engineering studies. The additional right-of-way and/or slope easements are
necessary since the use of any structure to retain the banks must be outside the
twenty (20) foot paved roadway section required under the Fire Code. The
amount of right-of-way required for this option will depend upon the selected
method of bank stabilization (rockery, concrete retaining wall or other acceptable
means) along the roadway. This has been verified in a conversation with the
Acting City Engineer.
Necessity of Second Access(Direct or Emergency)
Questions have been raised periodically during the review of the development as to whether or
not other types of development, such as a single family residential project, would require
another access. The answer is yes. Any development of the site would warrant development of
Memo To Mayor Clymer
Council Members

a second means of access. At a minimum the second access should be identified as a gated
emergency access roadway. A second alternative is necessary to ensure that emergency vehicles
have an alternative access to the site, in times of emergency, should the access through N.E.
16th street to Jefferson Avenue N.E. be blocked. Access along N.E. 23rd Street allows
opportunities to access the site from the north or south along Edmonds Avenue N.E. and that
the developed access will be of sufficient width to handle the necessary emergency vehicles.
CONCLUSION
Of the access alternatives discussed above, it appears that N.E. 23rd Street provides the most
reasonable means of a second access to the development. Ideally, this roadway should be
developed as originally required as part of the Honey Creek PUD approval by the City as an
access alternative to Jefferson Avenue N.E. for daily traffic from the development. This would
provide two means of access to the site, spreading the traffic impact among the adjacent
developments to the west and south as well as providing an additional unimpeded access point
for emergency vehicles. To do this, however, would require the City to use its eminent domain
powers of "the public use necessity". The City has wished to be reimbursed for its costs in
buying the necessary right-of-way and so negotiated with the developer. The Court, however,
in a recent decision, has told the City that if it is to use its condemnation powers to acquire
N.E. 23rd Street it must do so on its own initiative independent of the Honey Creek PUD
development. Staff believe that because of the apparent difficulties with acquisition and
reimbursement to the City, as well as the relatively low numbers of trips generated per day by
Phase I of the PUD that an alternative to developing the roadway to accommodate daily traffic
would be a decision to restrict the access along N.E. 23rd Street to gated emergency access only.
The use of N.E. 23rd Street as a means of emergency vehicle only access, better serves the
public interest than the other alternatives available at this time. It reduces the amount of
intrusion into the single family neighborhood to the west and reduces impacts to single family
residences which may have been built too near the adjacent roadways.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council revise the decision of April 14, 1986 issued for the Honey Creek PUD,
deleting the requirement that N.E. 23rd Street be developed as a second access point to the
development and replacing the condition with a requirement that N.E. 23rd Street be developed
as a gated emergency access point only for the development. The development of the N.E. 23rd
Street may require the dedication of additional property, unless necessary slope easements are
granted to the City, in order to provide adequate slope protection on either side of the roadway
or the paved portion is reduced a sufficient amount to allow the construction of a vertical
concrete retaining wall along portions of the southern edge of the right-of-way. The amount of
dedication or easement will depend upon the method of stabilization used for the banks along
the roadway.

RRIED.
PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published
PUD: Preliminary, Honey in accordance with State and local laws, Mayor Clymer opened the public
Creek, PPUD-015-84 hearing to consider the matter of access to the proposed Honey Creek
Associates Preliminary Planned Unit Development, consisting of 72
multifamily units located in the vicinity of the 2200 block of Jefferson
Avenue NE. As a result of a recent court decision denying condemnation of
property owned by the Cormans along NE 23rd Street, which was needed to
provide full access to the development, the City Council must now determine
whether to retain the requirement for two full access roads to the site or
whether to reduce that requirement to one major access along Jefferson
Avenue NE and one gated, secondary, 20-foot emergency access along NE
23rd Street.
Correspondence was read from Stanley A. Huseland, Trustee of Amos
Huseland Educational Trust, 11107 Wood Court, Carmel, IN 46032. The
letter advised that sole access to the 20 acres owned by the Huseland Trust in
the Honey Creek-May Creek valley is via Devil's Elbow Road (NE 27th
Street) which the City has closed. Mr. Huseland expressed strong objection
to the closure, pointed out that the road failed after being widened during
City sewer and road improvement projects in the canyon several years ago,
and urged restoration of the original configuration of the road for use by
local residents.
Audience comment was invited. Representing Stanley Huseland, Amos
Huseland, 1916 Edmonds Avenue NE, Renton, withdrew his opposition to
emergency access along NE 23rd Street. He stated that he and his son were
under the impression that the roadway referred to in the public hearing
notice was Devil's Elbow Road, which, although now known as NE 27th
Street, was formerly designated as NE 23rd Street on old maps. However, he
urged that Devil's Elbow Road be restored by the City to its former
configuration to provide access not only to areas to the north and east but to
his undeveloped property as well.
Referring to a vicinity map, Planning Manager Larry Springer provided
background information regarding the proposal. He indicated that City Code
requires direct access to a City street from all developments, and the Fire
Code requires two means of access, one primary and one secondary, for any
development consisting of three or more buildings located more than 200 feet
from a public road. Fire Code requires that the secondary access be a
minimum of 20 feet wide and paved.
Secondary access alternatives were discussed by Mr. Springer. 1) NE 21st
Street--additional right-of-way would be required and would generate
additional traffic through a larger single family area; 2) NE 27th Street
Devil's Elbow Road)--not viable due to instability; and 3) NE 23rd Street--
direct route to site and the preferred alternative for either full development
or gated emergency access. Slope easements (2-5 feet) and a small retaining
June 19, 1989 Renton City Council Minutes Page 170
wall may be needed to stabilize the bank along the roadway. Mr. Springer
advised that in its recent decision on the NE 23rd Street condemnation, the
Court had indicated that the City must pursue condemnation on its own
initiative and independent of the Honey Creek development. Due to low
anticipated volume on NE 23rd Street, staff has recommended that further
condemnation of property not occur and the 20-foot road be restricted to
gated emergency access only.
Noting that the proposed Honey Creek development has 72 units generating
approximately 476 round trips per day, Mr. Springer compared it with other
City projects approved with one primary access and one gated emergency
access: 1) Victoria Hills--174 units with 856 round trips per day; 2) Cedar
Ridge--138 units with 1380 round trips per day; and 3) Woodcliffe--300
units with 1475 round trips per day. Council President Stredicke expressed
concern with approval of a sole access to the development due to potential
impact from traffic on homes located near the entrance. Upon inquiry by
Councilwoman Mathews, Mr. Springer confirmed that the City may have to
condemn the 2-5-foot slope easement needed to develop NE 23rd; however,
since impact on adjacent homes would be reduced by the narrower roadway,
there is a possibility of reaching an agreement with the property owner
without legal action.
Audience comment was invited. John Sullivan, 2633 NE 23rd Street,
represented property owners on the south side of NE 23rd Street. He
objected to additional traffic on NE 23rd Street due to narrow, 14-foot
width; and he cited prior drainage and safety problems associated with the
roadway.
Chuck Velte, 12117 SE 96th Place, Renton, discussed the merits of improving
Devil's Elbow Road for use as access to the subject site as well as to residents
to the east who were cut off from direct access to the freeway and deprived
of secondary access when the road was closed. Mr. Velte suggested that
Urban Arterial Board funds be sought to improve Devil's Elbow Road before
costs escalate further. Noting constant use of the roadway by ATVs and
motorcycles, as a gathering place for teenagers consuming alcohol, and as a
dumping area, Mr. Velte requested that if there are no plans to open the road
for vehicle access, the least the City can do is install an effective barricade to
keep people out.
Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton, indicated he has a Washington
professional engineering license. Indicating his opinion that problems
associated with Devil's Elbow Road have been exaggerated, Mr. Murray
reported that his engineering survey of the roadway shows a slope of less
than 10% for its entire length contrary to information provided by the
applicant, and is well within the City's allowable slope criteria. He advised
that the cost would be the same--$100,000--to improve either Devil's Elbow
Road or NE 23rd Street to emergency access standards; however,
improvement of Devil's Elbow Road would better serve the public interest
since it could be widened for future public access while NE 23rd Street
would remain a gated road.
Bob Tomberg, 6005 Hazelwood Lane, Bellevue, property owner, asked
Council to consider emergency access via NE 23rd rather than Devil's Elbow
Road. He reaffirmed advice by expert engineers that access via Devil's
Elbow Road is inadequate for the project, and maintenance costs would be
high. Noting that the project has been unduly delayed, he urged Council to
arrive at a timely decision on the matter.
Tom Malmo, 12105 SE 96th Place, Renton, spoke in favor of improvement of
Devil's Elbow Road as the best choice for access into the Honey Creek
property, and indicated that before the City laid water and sewer lines in the
area, Devil's Elbow Road was stable and served as access through the canyon.
Upon Council inquiry, it was noted that notice of the public hearing was
posted in the area of the site, published in the newspaper, and mailed to all
parties of record. It was also clarified that Council had reaffirmed at the
75% annexation hearing on May 12, 1986, that if the 40-foot right of way
for NE 23rd Street cannot be acquired, the development would not be
allowed to proceed. Council asked about the City's obligation to provide
access to developing properties. City Attorney Warren stated that the City
has no legal obligation to keep any road open. Regarding the condemnation
proceeding, he explained findings of the Court that the City had signed an
agreement with the developer and had contracted away some of the City's
power of eminent domain. If the City had wanted to acquire property for
reasons of safety, traffic circulation, or other reasons within municipal
June 19, 1989 Renton City Council Minutes Pane 171
powers, the condemnation suit could go ahead. Mr. Warren referenced
memorandum from Public Works Director Guttmann this date recommending
that the City proceed with the condemnation of NE 23rd Street even if the
Honey Creek Associates PUD is not developed to provide the most direct and
least disruptive route to the single family residential area.
Mr. Tomberg recalled that at the first public hearing on this matter, the
public was supportive of the development to put an end to illegal dumping
and other activities on the property.
MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL CLOSE THE
PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. Council indicated that since additional
right-of-way on NE 23rd Street cannot be acquired, it appears that
development will not be able to proceed. City Attorney confirmed that if
conditions of the PUD cannot be met, conditions of Ordinance No. 4143,
adopted on 4/4/88, will be self-executing and the PUD cannot proceed. He
indicated that no further action is required by Council. (The ordinance
approved the PPUD and established a two year time limit for submission of a
final plan excluding the time required for condemnation of property along
NE 23rd Street.) No further action was taken by Council.
RECESS OVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL RECESS
FOR FIVE MINUTES. CARRIED. Time: 9:36 p.m. Council reconvened at
9:40 p.m.; roll was called; all members present except Hughes.
SPECIAL Police Chief Alan Wallis and Mayor Clymer presented a service award plaque
PRESENTATION to John Seaman who has completed 500 hours as a volunteer with the Police
Police: Special Department. Congratulations were extended to Mr. Seaman who has served
Presentation the department since 1987, assisting with vacation house checks, speed
watches, fingerprinting, and alarm maintenance.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Sandy Webb, 430 Mill Avenue South, Renton, indicated that all progress
Citizen Comment: Webb - comes from people who are not willing to accept the City as it is and are
Council Microphones and striving for improvement, promoting efficiency in government, and hunting
Procedures for honest answers. Noting recent replacement of Council microphones with
lapel mikes, Mr. Webb reported that the audience still cannot hear Council
discussion, and he urged that Council change its policy and procedure for
Council meetings to allow audience comment during abbreviated Council
meetings as well as at work sessions. He also requested that executive
sessions be held following regular Council meetings so that the audience can
leave instead of after abbreviated meetings when audience members are
waiting for work sessions to begin.
Citizen Comment: Carson Frank Carson, 1737 Lake Avenue South, Renton, asked for a completion date
Mosquito Abatement for the wildlife census required by the hearing examiner prior to start of
and Compression Brakes mosquito abatement program in the Valley area. He expressed concern with
delays in the spraying program due to health hazards associated with
mosquitoes. Advising that the City's ordinance prohibiting the use of
compression brakes by trucks is not being enforced, Mr. Carson supported
use of revenue from recent license fee and utility increases for additional
police services.
Upon Council inquiry regarding status of mosquito spraying program, Mayor
Clymer agreed to ask Parks Director John Webley to provide a report.

RE: Access Road..,N.E. 27th/120th Pl. S.E. (Devils Elbow
Road) Federal Collector Arterial #1334 .
To the Renton City Council:
Since the subject of tonights hearing is primarily access, I
thought it appropriate to discuss the merits of the (N.E.
27th/120th P1. S.E.) here after referred to as, "The
Road",not only from it's use as an access road to this
proposed development, but as a means for all of us to the
East of this area who are cut off from direct access to the
Interstate Freeway as a result of the road closing. We are
forced to drive through the increasingly congested Highlands
area, adding unnecessarily to the traffic congestion and
risking increased risk of accidents. As a result of this
closing, emergency vehicles have only one access to our
area, none can get directly to us via the Freeway
I formally request that the Director of Public works
investigate the eligibility of the road for Urban Arterial
board funding. My information indicates the City of Renton
did request UAB assistance for the Sunset road improvements
but not for the road. At or about that same time period,
your former public works director claimed you (The City of
Renton) could not afford to repair the road (N.E. 27th) and
moved to have it closed.
According to contacts I made at King County and the
Washington Department of Transportation in Olympia the road
is eligible for Urban Arterial board Funding. I brought this
to the attention of this body at an earlier hearing, but it
appears it was never pursued.
I hear of escalating figures on the repair the road, but no
attempts to obtain Federal or State funding. There was even
an innovative suggestion by our current Public Works
director that a bridge might be in order on the road.
The flip side of this issuse is the current status of the
closed road. It is my understanding that according to the
City of Renton, the Road is closed. While that might be
true on your books nothing could be further from the truth.
A continuing stream of offroad ATV's and Motorcycles cruise
up and down the road. There have been numerous teenage
parties where alcohol and possibly drugs have been consumed.
The dumping of garbage is an on going problem. I personally
found a dead rat on the roadway. My neighbors tell of
suspected cultist holding Satanic rituals in the Devils
Elbow area of the road. Barriers have been vandalized and
compromised. After my repeated requests, the Renton
Engineering Dept. placed a small sign warning of no
motorized vehicles.. Fortunately, they placed it to one side
or it would have been run over by now. I recently took my
own hammer and nails and repaired the barriers after they
were trashed by funseekers, with no respect for laws or
others property. The bottom line, if you are going to close
the road, then close it. Put barricades up the stop people.
The existing barriers are ineffective and poorly designed.
Thank you,

Members of the City Council
RECEIVED
FROM: Kenneth E. Nyberg
Community Development Director ANN 1 9 1989
RE: Honey Creek PUD CITY OF FiEN1ui
N.E. 23rd Street CITY COl1NCIL
File R-014-85, PPUD-015-85
PROBLEM
16
The City, as a result of a recent court decision on the condemnation of N.E. 23rd Street, must
determine whether the decision made by the City Council to require N.E. 23rd Street as a
second means of access for the Honey Creek PUD development should stand or be replaced
with a condition requiring that N.E. 23rd Street be used only as a gated secondary emergency
access for the development.
ISSUES
Code Requirements:
The Renton Municipal Code requires all developments to have direct access to a City street
from a development. The Fire Code requires the provision of a fire apparatus access road and
when a complex has three or more buildings located more than two hundred (200) feet from a
public road, the Fire Code requires two (2) means of access for a development. Generally, an
attempt is made to separate the access roadway from the primary access point to the
development to ensure emergency access to a development in case the primary access point is
closed during an emergency. The City has allowed developments to have one primary access
point and allowing the second access to be identified as gated secondary emergency access
provided that the access meets the minimum Fire Code standards (20 feet in width and paved).
In the City two examples of developments having one primary access with a gated emergency
access are Cedar Ridge and Woodcliffe.
Access Alternatives:
Access has been a major issue for the development. Over time, as a community develops, it
may find that development patterns allowed in the past create problems as infill parcels are
developed. Such is the case with the subject development (Phase I). In this case, the property
is surrounded by low density multiple family developments to the south and single family

residential developments to the west and a ravine to the north and east. The roadway network
developed in the area over time has segments with sufficient right-of-way while other segments
have insufficient right-of-way. Further, several of the roadways are, by current standards are
substandard.
Alternative access points for the development, in addition to the Jefferson Avenue N.E. access,
have been analyzed. The following briefly discusses these earlier alternatives:
a.N.E. 2lst Street
The development of N.E. 21st Street was considered. As with other alternatives,
development of the roadway would require additional right-of-way and
upgrading of roadways not only along the N.E. 2lst corridor but also IIarrington
Place N.E. The result will be carrying the development traffic through a larger
portion of the single family area west of the site than other suggested
alternatives.
b.N.E. 27th Street (Devils Elbow)
This alternative has been reviewed several times. The development of access
from this roadway is not a viable alternative due to the instability of the
roadway. At this time, it is not safe for either primary access or emergency
access.
c.N.E. 23rd Street
This alternative provides a route which impacts the single family neighborhood
less than the N.E. 21st alternative and provides a more direct route for
emergency vehicles attempting to service the development. Ideally, this roadway
should be developed, in addition to Jefferson, to allow two points of access for
the daily traffic generated by the development. Should a decision be made not to
develop the access to allow daily traffic, consideration should be given to
developing the existing right-of-way as a gated emergency access point.
The latter decision, as with the development of a full access point along this
right-of-way, may require additional property and/or slope easements in order to
provide sufficient bank stabilization on either side of the roadway. The need for
bank stabilization will depend upon the design of the roadway based upon
engineering studies. The additional right-of-way and/or slope easements are
necessary since the use of any structure to retain the banks must be outside the
twenty (20) foot paved roadway section required under the Fire Code. The
amount of right-of-way required for this option will depend upon the selected
method of bank stabilization (rockery, concrete retaining wall or other acceptable
means) along the roadway. This has been verified in a conversation with the
Acting City Engineer.
Necessity of Second Access(Direcl or Emergency)
Questions have been raised periodically during the review of the development as to whether or
not other types of development, such as a single family residential project, would require
another access. The answer is yes. Any development of the site would warrant development of
Memo To Mayor Clymer al
Council Members

a second means of access. At a minimum the second access should be identified as a gated
emergency access roadway. A second alternative is necessary to ensure that emergency vehicles
have an alternative access to the site, in times of emergency, should the access through N.E.
16th street to Jefferson Avenue N.E. be blocked. Access along N.E. 23rd Street allows
opportunities to access the site from the north or south along Edmonds Avenue N.E. and that
the developed access will be of sufficient width to handle the necessary emergency vehicles.
CONCLUSION
Of the access alternatives discussed above, it appears that N.E. 23rd Street provides the most
reasonable means of a second access to the development. Ideally, this roadway should be
developed as originally required as part of the Honey Creek PUD approval by the City as an
access alternative to Jefferson Avenue N.E. for daily traffic from the development. This would
provide two means of access to the site, spreading the traffic impact among the adjacent
developments to the west and south as well as providing an additional unimpeded access point
for emergency vehicles. To do this, however, would require the City to use its eminent domain
powers of "the public use necessity". The City has wished to be reimbursed for its costs in
buying the necessary right-of-way and so negotiated with the developer. The Court, however,
in a recent decision, has told the City that if it is to use its condemnation powers to acquire
N.E. 23rd Street it must do so on its own initiative independent of the Honey Creek PUD
development. Staff believe that because of the apparent difficulties with acquisition and
reimburse nent to the City, as well as the relatively low numbers of trips generated per day by
Phase I of the PUD that an alternative to developing the roadway to accommodate daily traffic
would be a decision to restrict time access along N.E. 23rd Street to gated emergency access only.
The use of N.E. 23rd Street as a means of emergency vehicle only access, better serves the
public interest than the other alternatives available at this time. It reduces the amount of
intrusion into the single family neighborhood to the west and reduces impacts to single family
residences which may have been built too near the adjacent roadways.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council revise the decision of April 14, 1986 issued for the Honey Creek PUD,
deleting the requirement that N.E. 23rd Street be developed as a second access point to the
development and replacing the condition with a requirement that N.E. 23rd Street be developed
as a gated emergency access point only for the development. The development of the N.E. 23rd
Street may require the dedication of additional property, unless necessary slope easements are
granted to the City, in order to provide adequate slope protection on either side of the roadway
or the paved portion is reduced a sufficient amount to allow the construction of a vertical
concrete retaining wall along portions of the southern edge of the right-of-way. The amount of
dedication or easement will depend upon the method of stabilization used for the banks along
the roadway.
CITY OF RENTON
MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 16, 1989
TO: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney
FRON : Lynn A. G .1aLr , Public Works Director
SUBJECT: NE 23rd Street and Honey Creek PUD
Thi ; memo is in response to your correspondence dated May 1, 1989, in regard
to street access to the proposed Honey Creek PUD.
Question 1: Should the City acquire the NE 23rd Street right-of-way, even if
the Honey Creek Associates PUD is not developed?
Response: The answer is yes. This roadway section will be needed for whoever
and whenever the subject property is developed. NE 23rd Street
provides the most direct route and least disruptive route through
the single family residence. This street access would also
disperse the traffic impact at Jefferson Ave. NE access which
routes passed Hillcrest Elementary School . A lesser traffic impact
around a school location should be encouraged.
Question 2: If NE 23rd Street cannot be used, what other alternative means of
access to the property should be used?
Response: If NE 23rd Street is not an option, then the less desirable alter-
natives would be as follows:
Alternate #1 : NE 21st Street between Jefferson Ave. NE &
Harrington Place
This roadway segment has an insufficient right-a-way problem.
The easterly 130 feet has a 30-foot right-a-way and the westerly
125 feet of this roadway segment has a 60-foot right-of-way.
The easterly half needs another 30 feet of right-a-way to match
the westerly half. It is also needed to build to a roadway
width that meets current standards. Another problem with NE
21st Street is that it passes through a single family residence
creating increased traffic in a residential area neighborhood.
Alternate #2: NE 27th Street & 120th Place SE
also known as the Devil 's Elbow)
This roadway, as you are aware, has been closed due to its
instability. In its present condition, it is unacceptable for
Lawr?nce J. Warren

primary and/or secondary emergency access. Based upon prelimi -
nary investigation, it was estimated in 1988 by staff that it
would cost $1,432,000 to construct a 28-foot wide roadway
meeting current standards. The cost makes this option non-
viable.
The minimum right-of-way width required per ordinance is 50 feet for any of
the alternatives above. An exception is 40 feet for one-way traffic on a
hillside area. See City Code 9-1108 Section 7H.
Question 3: What long-term planning and traffic problems does this PUD create
for the City?
Response: Phase I of the proposed PUD is 77 units which impact the accesses
proposed above. This will generate an average weekday traffic of
508 vehicle trips per day with 40 trips in the AM peak and 49 trips
in the PM peak hour. Phase II will not use this proposed access,
but access to the east. The PUD will not cause a major impact on
the existing roadways if we can disperse the access at two
locations.
If ve can provide further information, please let us know.

RE: Honey Creek Associates PPUD-015-84
Hearing date: June 19, 1989
Dear Ms. Motor:
I am the trustee of th ee Amos Huseland Educational Trust, establis hed
byits namesake--mysake -my father--for the educational benefit—of his
children and grandchildren.
The trust is owner of about 26 acres in L1iu Nuatay Creek-May creel
valley. Its only road access is by N. E. 23rd Street, which thecityhasclosed.
By this closure the city has rendered the market value of the trust
essentially wort.hlAgapropertyy Ag a trust asset, its only purpooc
is to be sold to mee t the educational needs of Mr. Huseland's family.Y
As a property owner whose property is absolutely dependent upon this
road access, I strongly object to any closure of the road. It is the
city's obligation to maintain this access to the properties in the
canyon.
The road failed following sewer and road improvements made in the
canyon a few years ago. An attempt was made to widen the canyon
road to modern standards without providing the necessary anti-erosion
engineering and Construction. The forces of nature did to the new
wide road what was predictable--reduced it to the narrow road on
the narrow base that existed before.
Reversing these engineering errors will cost money. But the cost
would be manageable if the city would restore a minimum access road
rather than the wider road recently created. We would be happy with
the old canyon road that existed for years, protected with warning
signs,
slow speed limits and guard rails for the sake of safety.
We object to limiting access to N.E. 23rd Street to emergency
access, because the city's obligation goes beyond the interest
of the Honey Creek Associates property.
My father, Amos E. Huseland, who is 88 years of age, may appear
at the hearing personally to make these points. But by this

On June 5, 1989, the Renton City Council adopted the Planning and Development Committee

Jefferson Avenue. Please concur in public hearing June 19, 1989.

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT
TO: Renton City Council
FROM: Planning and Development Committee
RE: N.E. 23rd and Honey Creek PUD
The Planning and Development Committee met on June 1, 1989 , to
consider the city' s continued involvement in the condemnation of
N.E. 23rd and the effects that abandoning the condemnation would
have on the Honey Creek PUD.As one of the conditions of
development, the Honey Creek PUD was required to acquire and develop
one block of N.E. 23rd to the west of the Honey Creek PUD. The
court has refused to allow the condemnation to proceed unless the
city asserts more control over the condemnation project.
The committee considered the questions of ingress and egress to the
site. Beginning at the north of the project, the Devil ' s Elbow Road
is presently unsafe, and the cost to make that road safe is not
known, but it is known that it would be substantial . Additionally,
there may be grade problems in getting from the elevation of Devil ' s
Elbow Road to the building areas in the Honey Creek PUD. Proceeding
towards the south, any possible ingress and egress along existing
rights-of-way before N.E . 23rd is impossible because of the steep
slopes . N.E . 21st would have the traffic coming out on the same
street as would a direct exit to the south, thereby eliminating N.E.
21st as either a secondary means of access or a means of emergency
access .
The only potential means of access are N.E. 23rd and Jefferson
Avenue. Jefferson Avenue will serve as a means of access to this
property. The remaining question is to what extent N.E . 23rd should
be used as more than emergency access.
The original proposal was to have N.E . 23rd serve as only emergency
access .In order to minimize the effects of traffic on the
neighborhood around the southern exit, Jefferson Avenue, the
Planning and Development Committee previously recommended that N.E.
23rd be expanded to full two-lane width, and the necessary right-of-
way obtained.
The Planning and Development Committee believes that a return to
using N.E. 23rd as emergency access only, may be warranted. Before
that step is taken, however, a full public hearing should be held on
the question. Therefore, the Planning and Development Committee
recommends to the full council that a public hearing be held to ,
consider the question of limiting N.E. 23rd to emergency access

only, and having normal ingress and egress limited to Jefferson
Avenue.
The Planning and Development Committee further recommends that the
matter of payment of attorney's fees to the respondents in the N.E .
23rd condemnation be referred to the Ways and Means Committee for
review.

June 7, 1989
Honorable Earl Clymer
City Council Members
Renton, Washington 98055
Reference: Iloneycreek P.U.D.
Dear Mayor Clymer and Renton City Council Members:
I have been contacted by City Attorney Larry Warren regarding the pending hearing andpossibleapprovaloftheI-loneycreek P.U.D.
The following information will answer the questions posedinLarryWarren's memorandum pertaining to fire department emergency access from Northeast23rdStreet:
1.Question: Is the existing city right-of-way sufficient to build an emergency access?
Answer: I made an inspection of the proposed site on June 7, 1989. It appears the existing
right-of-way is sufficient to construct a fire department emergency access into the site.
2.Question: If not, because of retaining walls or other reasons, how much right-of-waywillbenecessary?
Answer: During my inspection I did not see any retaining walls, however, one may be
required to be constructed in the future, to properly develop the access.
3.Question: What type of surface will be required to handle the emergency vehicles?
Answer: The Uniform Fire Code requires a 20 foot minimum width of road surface. CityofRentonFireLaneOrdinance #4130, specifies a paved concrete or asphalt surface to
support a 41,000 lb. fire apparatus. The Renton Fire Department will enforce these codes
and ordinances.
4.Question: What other problems can you anticipate with this particular emergency access?
Answer:
At this time I don't anticipate any problems, with the possible exception of grade;
maximum approved fire department grade is 12%.
I hope I have answered your concerns.
Sincerely,
GLEN G. GORDON
Fire Marshal

opportunity to provide development guidelines. He cited examples of large
parcels which have been clear-cut and not developed for many years, i.e.
Victoria Hills and Sunpointe, and supported the Land Clearing and Tree

vegetation. However, he agreed that the ordinance should be monitored to
assure that it is workable.

that further public funds not be spent on a project with no significant public
value. Planning and Development Committee report regarding this matter
was presented:

June 5. 1989 Renton City Council Minutes Page 154
Plannine and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Reed presented a report
Development Committee indicating the Committee met on June 1, 1989, to consider the City's
Condemnation: Honey continued involvement in the condemnation of NE 23rd and the effects that
Creek, NE 23rd Street abandoning the condemnation would have on the Honey Creek PUD. As one
of the conditions of development, the Honey Creek PUD was required to
acquire and develop one block of NE 23rd to the west of the Honey Creek
PUD. The court has refused to allow the condemnation to proceed unless the
City asserts more control over the condemnation project.
The Committee considered the questions of ingress and egress to the site.
1 Beginning at the north of the project, the Devil's Elbow Road is presently
unsafe, and the cost to make that road safe is not known, but it is known
that it would be substantial. Additionally, there may be grade problems in
getting from the elevation of Devil's Elbow Road to the building areas in the
Honey Creek PUD. Proceeding towards the south, any possible ingress and
egress along existing rights-of-way before NE 23rd is impossible because of
the steep slopes. NE 21st would have the traffic coming out on the same
street as would a direct exit to the south, thereby eliminating NE 21st as
either a secondary means of access or a means of emergency access.
The only potential means of access are NE 23rd and Jefferson Avenue.
Jefferson Avenue will serve as a means of access to this property. The
remaining question is to what extent NE 23rd should be used as more than
emergency access.
The original proposal was to have NE 23rd serve as only emergency access.
In order to minimize the effects of traffic on the neighborhood around the
southern exit, Jefferson Avenue, the Planning and Development Committee
previously recommended that NE 23rd be expanded to full two-lane width,
and the necessary right-of-way obtained.
The Planning and Development Committee believed that a return to using NE
23rd as emergency access only may be warranted. Before that step is taken,
however, a full public hearing should be held on the question. Therefore,
the Planning and Development Committee recommended to the full Council
that a public hearing be held to consider the question of limiting NE 23rd to
emergency access only, and having normal ingress and egress limited to
Jefferson Avenue.
The Planning and Development Committee further recommended that the
matter of payment of attorney's fees to the respondents in the NE 23rd
condemnation be referred to the Ways and Means Committee for review.
MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL CONCUR IN
THE COMMITTEE REPORT. Upon Council inquiry, City Attorney Warren
clarified that the court has ordered the City to pay all legal fees for the
condemnation proceedings, which will be reimbursed by the developer in
accordance with prior agreement. Mr. Corman felt that Council's efforts may
be futile towards the success of a potentially unworkable planned unit
development, and he asked that the City not pursue further condemnation of
the access property using public funds. MOTION CARRIED.

200 Mill Avenue South
Renton, Washington 98055
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Council ,
We are requesting that you deny further assistance to
Messrs. Santa and Tomberg (Honey Creek Associates ) in condemning
our property.
As you are aware, Honey Creek Associates has for three
years repeatedly requested your assistance in procurring a
portion of our yard for access to its planned unit development.
You have responded to them generously by granting them the use
of the city attorney as advisor and as author and executor of a
condemnation ordinance against our property; the only
stipulation being that Honey Creek Associates reimburse the city
for its costs.
Because of these actions we were compelled to retain our
own attorney, and he subsequently convinced King County Court to
deny the condemnation petition because, as the court decision
reads, "
the City of Renton is serving as the alter ego of Honey
Creek Associates. " Denial of this petition was expensive for
Messrs. Santa and Tomberg, as they are now obligated to pay
their legal fees, the city attorney ' s fees, and our legal fees.
We believe that after taking this beating , the developers will
now ask you to attempt the same condemnation using taxpayers
funds and/or with the city responsible for the proceedings. We
feel you should flatly deny any such request for the following
two reasons :
1 ) As custodians of taxpayers ' money,
you should not spend public funds on a project with no
significant public value. Any new condemnation ordinance
can be defeated as easily as the last one, based on the
three-year record of agreements between the developers and
Honorable Mayor and Ci' "ouncil
Page 2
May 31, 1989
the city and the lack of a previous city plan to use the
subject properties. A new ordinance would only reinforce
the conclusion that "Renton is serving as the alter ego of
Honey Creek Associates. " Losing would cost the taxpayers
plenty. This time the city would foot the bill for our
legal fees, city attorney' s fees, and related costs. Since
we are prepared to fight any appeals , the costs would
likely be tens of thousands of dollars.
And winning could be equally expensive. The city
would still pay city attorney' s fees and witness fees
through many phases of trial . In addition, taxpayers would
be required to purchase the 8400 square feet of wooded view
property plus improvements at fair market value (not at the
approximatly 2/3 assesed value the city attorney has
mentioned in past correspondence) . The cost would be
higher still since the taking of this land would reduce our
home 's setback to less than the legal minimum.
And taxpayers would underwrite all of the above costs
so that an out-of-town developer can maximize his profits.
We doubt taxpayers would like to do this , and we feel
taxpayers ' input should be solicited before choosing this
course.
You may additionally be asked to take the reins for
the condemnation,
accepting responsibility to choose
between proceeding or abandoning during the process. For
example, it may be proposed that you complete condemnation,
perhaps even build the road, and then charge the developer
a usage fee. We urge that you be wary of this type of
arrangement, since you will not be able to predict the
developers ' plans or intentions. If you coordinate with
the developers, we will soundly defeat the ordinance in
court, asserting that the developer still has control of
the proceedings. But if you do not coordinate with the
developer the taxpayers could wind up purchasing aroadwaythatthedeveloperrefusestobuyorimprove. (The
developers could decide you paid too much, or they could
sell their land to someone who wants to use it a different
way) . Taxpayers would not be impressed by either outcome.
2) As advocates of Renton citizens,
you should not put the desires of out-of-town developers
over the needs of your own citizens. As we have explained
in previous correspondence, the proposed road is
inconsistent with our intended use of our property. As
your constituents, we feel you should assist us rather than
Honey Creek Associates who live elsewhere and whose
property was not even part of Renton until they pushed
their annexation through last year.
Honorable Mayor and City C
Page 3
May 31, 1989
In conclusion, we request that you deny further legal
assistance to the developers and allow their three-year-old PPUD
to die for lack of their meeting requirements. You have far
exceeded any obligation you may have toward them. Any
additional assistance you provide will further derail our good
faith negotiation attempts and dissipate funds that could be
applied towards a realistic purchase offer for our property or
improving other access roads into the Honey Creek parcel.
Sincerely,
Randal A. Corman

Vacation: VAC-88-002,indicating that the City had acquired the right-of-way by subdivision. The
Maple Avenue SW, Priebe street now known as Maple Avenue SW lies within the plat of Earlington and
was recorded in 1906. Maple Avenue SW (also known as Rainier Boulevard
and 90th Avenue S.) was dedicated to the City via the plat. The property
was annexed to the City in July, 1948, from King County. The 30 feet
proposed for vacation is a grassy bank which the City maintains at a minimal
annual cost of $452. City ordinance does not provide for installment
payment options, but the petitioner has agreed to the 90 day period allowed
by ordinance for payment of the appraised amount after acceptance by
Council.
Mr. Cayce reiterated previous testimony of 5/15/89, and urged Council to
reduce the assessment required of his client or require none at all for the
vacated property. Following discussion, it was moved by Keolker-Wheeler,

Condemnation: Honey NE, Renton, requesting that Council deny further assistance to Messrs. Santa
Creek, NE 23rd Street and Tomberg (Honey Creek Associates) in condemning the Corman property
along NE 23rd Street as access to the Honey Creek Planned Unit
Development. The letter reported recent denial of the City's condemnation
petition by King County Superior Court, noted that legal costs expended by
the City and the Cormans must be reimbursed by the developer, and urged
that further public funds not be spent on a project with no significant public
value. Planning and Development Committee report regarding this matter
was presented:

June 5. 1989 Renton City Council Minutes Page 154
Plannlnz and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Reed presented a report
Pevelopment Committee indicating the Committee met on June 1, 1989, to consider the City'sCondemnation: Honey continued involvement in the condemnation of NE 23rd and the effects that
Creek, NE 23rd Street abandoning the condemnation would have on the Honey Creek PUD. As one
of the conditions of development, the Honey Creek PUD was required to
acquire and develop one block of NE 23rd to the west of the Honey Creek
PUD. The court has refused to allow the condemnation to proceed unless the
City asserts more control over the condemnation project.
The Committee considered the questions of ingress and egress to the site.
Beginning at the north of the project, the Devil's Elbow Road is presently
unsafe, and the cost to make that road safe is not known, but it is known
that it would be substantial. Additionally, there may be grade problems in
getting from the elevation of Devil's Elbow Road to the building areas in the
Honey Creek PUD. Proceeding towards the south, any possible ingress and
egress along existing rights-of-way before NE 23rd is impossible because of
the steep slopes. NE 21st would have the traffic coming out on the same
street as would a direct exit to the south, thereby eliminating NE 21st as
either a secondary means of access or a means of emergency access.
The only potential means of access are NE 23rd and Jefferson Avenue.
Jefferson Avenue will serve as a means of access to this property. The
remaining question is to what extent NE 23rd should be used as more than
emergency access.
The original proposal was to have NE 23rd serve as only emergency access.
In order to minimize the effects of traffic on the neighborhood around the
southern exit, Jefferson Avenue, the Planning and Development Committee
previously recommended that NE 23rd be expanded to full two-lane width,
and the necessary right-of-way obtained.
The Planning and Development Committee believed that a return to usingNE23rdasemergencyaccessonlymaybewarranted. Before that step is taken,
however, a full public hearing should be held on the question. Therefore,
the Planning and Development Committee recommended to the full Council
that a public hearing be held to consider the question of limiting NE 23rd to
emergency access only, and having normal ingress and egress limited to
Jefferson Avenue.
The Planning and Development Committee further recommended that the
matter of payment of attorney's fees to the respondents in the NE 23rd
condemnation be referred to the Ways and Means Committee for review.
MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL CONCUR IN
THE COMMITTEE REPORT. Upon Council inquiry, City Attorney Warren
clarified that the court has ordered the City to pay all legal fees for the
condemnation proceedings, which will be reimbursed by the developer in
accordance with prior agreement. Mr. Corman felt that Council's efforts may
be futile towards the success of a potentially unworkable planned unit
development, and he asked that the City not pursue further condemnation of
the access property using public funds. MOTION CARRIED.

March 4, 1985 Original PPUD submittal proposed primary access on Jefferson
Avenue NE,secondary access on NE 21st Street, and a 20-foot ,, °'u
wide, gated emergency access at NE 23rd Street. tt,i
r
Hearing Examiner denied the PPUD based on inaccurate
density calculations.
January 1, 1986 PPUD resubmitted proposing primary access on Jefferson
4
venue NE,secondary access on NE 21st Street, and a 20-foot
r wide,gated emergency access at NE 23rd Street.
ikAt
Hearing Examiner recommended the elimination of the entry et_
Y'f
at 21st Street,and required the applicant to bear the cost oC
y', 1
upgrading the access roads. r
tx
April 14, 1986 Planning and Development Committee indicated concerns e s e
regarding
access to the proposed PPUD. The Committee stated 1' '
that,'...full street improvements on a 40-foot public right-of- t
x,mar,.
way alignment with NE 23rd Street are necessary to provide Y r•
necessary access to the development.'
1-,„,
The Council required the'...dedication of a full 40-foot wide X • •
right-of-way aligned with NE 23rd Street between Harrington , -r_Rhs_•r.
Avenue NE and the site,with an engineering report and
specifications for full street improvement as required by City Y:
Code.'
May 12, 1986 At the public hearing on the 75% annexation petition, Council
Y
confirmed the elimination of the entry at NE 21st Street and
i:
the requirement of a 40-foot wide right-of-way aligned with
NE 23rd Street. If the additional 20 feet of right-of-way on :`+,'•;
7 the south side of NE 23rd Street cannot be acquired, the
r
Council reaffirmed that the development will not be allowed s,
to proceed.

In In Re Seattle, 79 Wn. 2d 490 ; 487 P. 2d 777 (1971) , the
15
Court discussed its rationale for affirming an award of almost
16
444 ,000 fees and costs in a taking ultimately abandoned by
17
Seattle . After first noting that the fees were large, the
18
Court stated in response to an argument by the City that the
19
burden of such fee award would fall on the taxpayers.
20
It is true that the taxpayer must pay the fee. It is,
21 however, this same taxpayer who placed the respondent ' s
property in jeopardy and made it necessary for them to
22 defend its value.
23 In Re Seattle, 493 . In the instant case, of course, the burden
24 will not
necessarily be on the taxpayers , but upon the
25 developer by virtue of its contract with the City. Relative to

1 the entire cost of the project - and the profits to be realized
2 - the amount sought here is minor . The contract itself
3 evidences an acknowledgement and acceptance of the obligation
4 of paying fees to the Cormans even if the condemnation is not
5 completed. Therefore, there is no surprise or hardship. There
6 is no reason to award the Cormans other than a full and fair
7 recovery of the fees they were required to incur to defend
8 their property.
9 The amount involved here, while not particularly large to
10 developers and cities, is very significant to a young family
11 trying to make ends meet in their first home. Contrary to the
12 ordinary instance of litigation, the Cormans did nothing here
13 to become involved in this law suit. They just happened to be
14 in the developer ' s way.
15 The issues here were complex . Case law shows how
16 difficult the burden is on a condemnee to overcome the
17 presumption in favor of cities seeking private property. Even
18 so, this is the stage of the proceedings the Cormans chose to
19 make their stand, and having done so successfully, they should
20 be made whole . In the long run , all of the parties were
21 without doubt saved the amount sought herein several times
22 over . The fees are reasonable for the services provided, the
23 complexity of the issues, and in light of the constitutional
24 interests that were protected.

AGREEMENT RE EMINENT DOMAIN PROCEEDING
I . PARTIES: This agreement is entered into between the CITY
OF RENTON, a municipal corporation, and ROBERT TOMBERG and JANE DOE
TOMBERG, his wife, and /A k SANTA and JANE DOE SANTA, his
wife, dba Honey Creek Associates (hereinafter referred to as
Associates ) .
II . BACKGROUND: Associates seeks to develop a parcel of
property within the City of Renton that has been referred to as the
Honey Creek Associates PUD. That PUD has been conditioned upon
Associates providing a primary means of access to the PUD along N.E.
23rd Street. In order to obtain the necessary right-of-way for that
access, it may be necessary for the City of Renton to exercise its
powers of eminent domain. This agreement is to establish the terms
and conditions under which the City of Renton will use its powers of
eminent domain.
III . COMPENSATION:
III . 1 .Attorney' s Fees: Any eminent domain proceeding
will be prosecuted by the Renton City Attorney. His fees, which
will be billed at the rate of $125 . 00 per hour, will be paid by
Associates on a monthly basis within ten days of receipt of the
billings . The duty to pay will be inclusive of any fees incurred in
a hearing to establish public use and necessity, whether or not the
court enters an order of public use and necessity. It is estimated
that the attorney' s fees , up to the point of pretrial preparation,
will be approximately $1,500 . 00 from the date of signing of this •
agreement henceforth. It is estimated that the attorney' s fees
necessary for trial preparation will be an additional $5, 000 . 00, and
the attorney' s fees for trial will be an additional $5, 000 . 00 . If
these sums are to be exceeded, then the city attorney will contact
Associates and negotiate further sums for legal representation.
1II . 2 .Appraiser: It will be necessary, if this matter
cannot be negotiated, for the city to hire an appraiser to prepare
for trial. Costs of the appraiser will be borne by Associates, but
the sum shall not exceed $1, 000 . 00 for the appraisal, $1, 500 . 00 for
trial preparation, and $1 , 500 . 00 for attendance at trial unless the
sum has been renegotiated between the parties . Associates '
obligation to pay this sum will be to the appraiser, and any
contractual relationship will be between Associates and the
appraiser.
III . 3 . Costs and Attorney's Fees For Condemnee: If
this matter goes to trial and the condemnee obtains a verdict for
the value of the property at more than ten percent above the last
qualifying offer, then the city will be obligated to pay the costs
and attorney' s fees of the condemnee, such sum to be established by
a King County Superior Court judge . The sum to be offered as a last
qualifying offer will be approved by Associates . Should the judge
1
award attorney' s fees and experts ' fees, then Associates shall pay
those fees .
III . 4 . Cost of Land: Associates shall pay the cost of
the land as established through negotiation or trial .Should
Associates determine that the cost is excessive, then it may
instruct the city to abandon the condemnation, but Associates shall
still have an obligation to pay the attorney' s fees, appraiser' s
fees, the condemnee' s attorney's fees, and expert's fees as detailed
herein.Should Associates choose to abandon the condemnation
action, then the PUD will have to be reopened and be subject to
further scrutiny and review by the Renton City Council, up to and
including a rehearing for preliminary approval of the PUD.
III .5 Lien Rights: Any sums owing hereunder not paid
within sixty days of submission of a bill therefor, shall be a lien
against the real property known as the Honey Creek PUD.

OLD BUSINESS Planning and Development Committee Chairman Mathews presented a report
Planning and regarding the appeal of rezone for Good Shepherd of Washington Group
Development Committee Home on NE 19th Street, east of Shelton Avenue NE and west of Union
Appeal: Good Shepherd Avenue NE. The applicant had requested a rezone from R-1 to G-1, and a
Group Home Rezone (NE conditional use permit to develop the site with a group home for six
19th Street), R-010-88 developmentally disabled adults. The applicant appealed the Hearing
Examiner's decision #4 requiring an automated irrigation system.
As to the Hearing Examiner's recommendation on the rezone, the Committee
found there was no error, and recommended concurrence in the Hearing
Examiner's recommendation.
As to the Hearing Examiner's decision on the conditional use permit, the
committee found an error of law in applying the landscaping and irrigation
requirements on the group home without some provision being made for the
hybrid nature of the use. Therefore, the committee recommended that the
Hearing Examiner's decision, which requires a fully automatic irrigation
system, be reversed on the condition that: The applicant post a $1,000 bond
for the purpose of replacement of landscaping in the event of loss of trees,
shrubbery, and/or ground cover. Any diminution of the bond amount to
replace the landscaping shall be replaced by the applicant. This bond
requirement shall be in effect for three (3) years. If there is a pattern of
non-maintenance over a three (3) year period, the applicant herein shall be
required to install an automated irrigation system as approved by city staff.
If there is a pattern of proper maintenance over three (3) years, the bond
may be released. However, due to the conditional use nature of the group
home, the city will always be entitled to require automated irrigation if it
appears that the landscaping is being ignored. MOVED BY MATHEWS,

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
Your recent correspondence with the Planning & Development
Committee of the Renton City Council has been referred to me for
response . The committee has tabled your request to modify the
requirement of obtaining the necessary right-of-way and improving
N.E . 23rd. That requirement was established by the city council
following a series of public hearings and council and committee
meetings . If you believed the condition to be improper, then you
had an appeal right which you could ha""e exercised. By failing to
i
appeal, the council ' s decision stands .
Pursuant to city ordinance, you have the right to petition the
city for a modification to an approved PUD. If the modification
is deemed minor, the city staff can make that modification.
However, something such as major access to the development site
would hardly be considered minor. To obtain a major modification
to a planned unit development requires a full public hearing
before the Hearing Examiner.If you are unhappy with that
decision, then it could be appealed to the city council .
The city council has not maintained its jurisdiction over your
PUD. It has tried to clarify aspects of its decision that any
party felt was ambiguous . However, the requirement to obtain the
right-of-way and construct the road is not ambiguous .
The council committee did not feel that you had presented it with
any proposal to modify the condition .The fact that your
technical expert believed that the road was not necessary is not
an adequate basis for the city council to review its prior
decision .
Now that the city council has had an opportunity to review your
request, it believes that it is an application for a modification
to a PUD and should be handled by the administrative staff .
Undoubtedly, this will result in a declaration that it is a major
modification and referral to the Hearing Examiner for a future
hearing.

Dear Mr . Warren:
I am writing in response to your letter on July 12, 1988. 1 sinccerly
regret my lack o* attendance at the planning and development committee
meeting on June 7;0, 198S as it was I who originally requested that meeting.
I do appreciate tieing able to respond to the committee' s questions and
will tr.., to do s a _ thi., time.
First, we have never proposed to have N. E. 2=rd as anything other than
omer e l p! C:,J.s,E review the 1.eter from Mel Easter of
Li;'a.uni"! Design Croup inc. whi ch should arrive in your office shortly. )
I ca.!) certainly understand the city' s desire to have full city streets
developed at the expense of a third party, but to suggest that it was our
intention to have a secondary access along N. E. 23rd is wrong.
Second, we have not and are not planning a secondary access to our project
unless required to do so by the city.
Third, access by way of Devil ' s Elbow Road to our project has been examined as
completely as I believe is pos_sib1e by experts on all sides. There has been
no one from any source who has the credentials to make an educated opinion tha
be? i e"e the De 1 s El bow Road should be opened at all .
Finally. it was cur belief that the condemnation proceeding as well as the
purchase the . ch= o- way for N. E. _=rd would be approximatly s 5s 0r_ r_
The mprc':-ement cost for' the road would be $ 60. 000. 00. The density l
of this _ e_t Pa_ been: cut in halt since the begining of our annexation
at-tempi- wjth the 0 ty. There is nn cash set aside for extraneous purposes.
In _.._ ._ .e doubt ...h: s projectject will be profitable at all .

Dear Mr. Tomberg:
I am writing to you at the request of the Planning, and Development Committee of the
Renton City Council. Your request to that committee to relieve you of the duty of
obtaining the right-of-way and developing a portion of N.E. 23rd came up for hearing on
Thursday, June 30, 1988. You were not in attendance at that meeting and the committee
did not wish to proceed without you present to represent your interests. I was informed,
subsequently, that there was a lapse in communication and you believed that the meeting
was to be held the following evening, July 1, 1988.
The Planning and Development Committee would like to have you make a firm proposal to
them as to what you wish done. For example, Mitch Murray continues to suggest to the
council that the money you are going to invest on N.E. 23rd would be better spent on the
Devil's Elbow Road. The Planning and Development Committee recalls that N.E. 23rd was
supposed to serve as a secondary access to your property and not merely as an emergency
access. The committee would like to know if you are planning secondary access to your
property and, if so, where it should be located besides N.E. 23rd.
The committee would also like to know what you believed you were going to have to invest
in the improvement of N.E. 23rd, and how much you plan to invest in an alternative. Do
you plan to use N.E. 23rd as an emergency access only and not provide a means of
secondary access?
Once the committee has received a firm written proposal from you they will schedule
another committee meeting and you will be notified of that meeting.
Very truly yours,
Lawrence J. Warren

improvement district to finance the roadway, and asked if development in the
area justifies construction of that improvement.
Marjorie Richter, 300 Meadow Avenue North, Renton, noted that the
program does not reflect improvements to relieve N. 3rd and N. 4th Street
traffic other than widening the undercrossing under I-405 at Sunset and 3rd.
She questioned how traffic from the additional lanes would be accommodated
by existing streets; noted her understanding that funds contributed by E & H
Properties would be used for improvements in North Renton; and suggested
that of N. 4th Street be connected to Sunset Boulevard as a traffic mitigation
measure. Mr. Norris indicated that the North Renton benefit district includes
the I-405 undercrossing, and there was no attempt to address any of the
specific improvements in the North Renton neighborhood in the TIP since
that area is being reviewed separately.
Darrell Igelmund, 3602 Lake Washington Boulevard, Renton, referenced
priority #6 and #24, widening the NE 44th Street interchange and widening
Lake Washington Boulevard, and reiterated provisions of Resolution No.
2708, adopted by Council to protect the single family character of the
Kennydale neighborhood. He felt that the TIP violates that agreement by the
City, and he expressed hope that Council would delete #6 since it would add
more traffic on Lake Washington Boulevard, and modify #24 to delete
widening and instead reconstruct the existing roadway to include curb, gutter,
sidewalk and bike path. He requested that Council consider changing the
designation of Lake Washington Boulevard from a secondary arterial to a
designation more in line with residential development.
Theresa Zimmerman, 813 North 1st Street, Renton, referenced the traffic
study prepared by William Popp on the North Renton area which states that
no matter what is done, Renton has traffic problems. She proposed that
funds contributed by E & H Properties be used to encourage other means of
travel than the automobile for entering Renton, and felt that Renton citizens
have a changing attitude about accommodating more traffic through the city.
Versie Vaupel, P.O. Box 755, Renton, indicated concern that the TIP was not
available to residents in advance; expressed disappointment that the plan does
not reflect solutions besides accommodating higher volumes of pass-through
traffic; and concurred that extension of both N. 4th Street and Houser Way
would relieve pressure on North Renton streets. She also felt that use of
developer funds on the I-405 undercrossing at NE 3rd Street would violate
the original intent for use of funds in North Renton, and referred to
Resolution No. 2708 which stated that traffic volume on N. 3rd Street shall
remain at present level or below. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED

Subject: NE 23rd Street access to the Honey Creek PPUD (PPUD-015-84)
References:
1 . Letter to Don Erickson of the Renton Building and Zoning
Department, from Bob Tomberg of Honey Creek Associates, dated May 18,
1988,
I am writing this letter in order to provide comments about Mr.
Tomberg' s letter (reference 1) and in order to provide additional
information about the subject of street access to the Honey Creek
PPUD.
First I would like to complement Mr. Tomberg for writting his letter
and attempting to pursue alternate street access into his development.
I support his attempt to avoid a costly and time consuming court
battle over condemnation and minimum street code requirements.
As you know, the currently approved street access to this development
is via a 60 foot right-of-way on Jefferson Ave. NE and via a 40 foot
right-of-way on NE 23rd Street. These street accesses are shown on
Figure 1. The access on NE 23rd Street will require additional
right-of-way acquisition since there currently is only a 20 foot
right-of-way. This right-of-way acquisition is strongly opposed by
the established single family neighborhood in this area. Much time
and money will be spent, which could better be spent on the
development and other things, even if condemnation is successful in
the courts. The Honey Creek PPUD will die if condemnation is
attempted and fails in the courts. In either case much time and money
will be waNsted. In addition there are legal questions about whether
the currently approved 40 foot access on NE 23rd Street meets code
requirements or whether it needs to be enlarged to 60 feet.
June 20, 1988, from Mitch Murray to Renton City Council, page 2 of 2,
regarding PPUD-0] 34.
The above currently approved street access was approved over two years
ago by the city council on April 14, 1986. Things have changed in the
last two years. In addition to the development of the above mentioned
legal problems associated with the currently approved street access,
there are now increased reasons why Devils Elbow roadway should be
used for access to the Honey Creek development.
One of the original objections to the use of Devils Elbow as either a
primary access or gated emergency access was the fact that much of it
was outside of the City of Renton and spending Renton funds on
upgrading it thus seemed unpalatable. Devils Elbow is now part of
Renton as a result of a King County Boundary Review Board requirement
on the Honey Creek annexation. This roadway which was officially
established in 1894 is now Renton' s responsibility.
After the heavy rains of November 1986 parts of the roadway west of
the elbow part of Devils Elbow roadway settled a few inches. As a
result the roadway was closed in early 1987 and a geotechnical
analysis of this west part of the roadway was completed by Shannon &
Wilson, Inc. It was estimated to cost $94,000 to stabilize the
roadbed. It was decided to shut down the Honey Creek sewer system
since it's high pressure force main is under this part of Devils Elbow
roadway. The roadway was also closed to traffic.
The Devils Elbow roadway and Honey Creek sewer system have remained
out of service to this day. So far the old sewer system, under Sunset
Highway, has been able to handle the sewer flow without overflowing.
Eventually as more people hook up to the sewer system, and/or as the
rainy season gets underway, we will have a raw sewage overflow
problem.
Clearly we need to spend the $94,000 to stabilize the roadbed so that
we can safely and reliably put the 1.2 million dollar Honey Creek
sewer system back into service.
I propose that, at the same time that the roadbed is stabilized, it be
widened from its current pavement width of 18 feet to 20 feet so that
it can be used as an emergency access to the Honey Creek development
from Edmonds Avenue NE. The developer should supply funds for this
widening, from the funds that would have been spent on NE 23rd Street.
This seems only appropriate since the development will be using the
honey creek sewer system.
The use of Devils Elbow roadway as an emergency access to the Honey
Creek Development would mean that NE 23rd Street would no longer be
needed for access to the development. This would avoid the legal
problems associated with NE 23rd Street and would reduce the adverse
impacts that this development will have on the established single
family neighborhood to the west. Figure 2 shows what the revised
access plan utilizing Devils Elbow as an emergency access would look
like.
Sincerely,
Z4

BUDGET RETREAT. CARRIED.
OLD BUSINESS Council President Keolker-Wheeler presented a Committee of the Whole
Committee of the Whole report regarding 1988 work program update and budget modifications. The
Budget: 1988 Work Committee met with staff in a special work session to discuss a series of
Program Update and programs that require staff support and budget allocations in the form of
Budget Modifications mid-year program and budget adjustments. After consideration, the
Committee recommended the following:
Policy: Establishment of A. Proposed reorganization/establishment of Community Development
Community Development Department ($59,000): The Committee recommends that the
Department administration's proposal be approved as presented and referred to Ways
and Means Committee. Approval will include fund appropriations for a
new department head, a principal planner position, equipment and
furnishings for the new employees and minor renovations to
accommodate changes in 1988. This approval is subject to Ways and
Means Committee review and approval of the justification for new salary
proposals and reclassification adjustment. (*See below.)
Personnel: New Position, B. Request for new position (current planner)($30,000): After reviewing
Planner workload demands and comparable staffing levels in other cities, the
Committee recommended that the administration be authorized to hire a
new employee to serve in the current planning section of the Planning
Department.
Annexation: North Soos C. Funding and authorization for fact-finding study for proposed North
Creek Soos Creek Annexation ($45,000): The Committee reviewed the results
of the survey conducted in the proposed annexation area and accepted
input from staff and a representative from the Fire District 40 Board of
Commissioners. The following recommendations should be referred to
Council for action:
1. A fact-finding study should be funded by the City to determine the
impacts of the proposed annexation on the City and residents in the
annexation area.
2. Council should concur with the recommendation of the annexation
committee and include only the areas identified as Fairwood,
Cascade and Petrovitsky as shown in the survey document within
the fact-finding study.
3. The study should analyze the impacts of an annexation on Fire
District #40 and specifically address alternatives that would protect
residents outside of the proposed annexation area but within the
district boundaries from loss of service protection.
Streets: Lind Avenue D. Lind Avenue Street improvements ($180,000): The Committee
Street Improvements recommended that funds be transferred to allow the street improvements
described by staff for Lind Avenue bridge. Approval will result in
efficiencies and avoid future disruptions to traffic and business patterns.
Budget: 1988 Adjustments E. Other budget adjustments: The Committee recommended approval of the
following adjustments as submitted by the administration:
1. $210,000 to fund a consultant study related to valley storm drainage
issues (P-1/P-9 Channels).
2. $9,000 for replacement of a postage machine in the Finance
Department.
3. $22,000 for police arbitration costs.
4. $9,400 to fund distribution of the Renton Report to all postal
customers in zip code areas 98055, 98056, and 98058.

Mr. Tomberg has requested that staff review the issue of NE 23rd Street access to the
Honeycreek PUD. Originally, the street was to be used for emergency access and later
the applicant agreed to acquire additional right of way to allow for a full width city
street. Mr. Tomberg's letter indicates there are differences of opinion between
themselves and representation of the nearby neighborhood. Since the matter of the
roadway was a condition of approval by council for the PUD we feel the matter is
most appropriately handled at council level.

RE: 23rd STREET ACCESS
DEAR DON:
THIS LETTER IS TO REQUEST YOUR ASSISTANCE IN CLARIFYING AN ACCESS PROBLEM
TO OUR PROPERTY VIA 23rd STREET. AS YOU ARE AWARE, WE ORIGINALLY PLANNED
FOR TWENTY-THIRD STREET TO BE AN EMERGENCY ACCESS TO OUR PROJECT.
THIS CONCEPT WAS SUPPORTED BY THE CITY' S STAFF. IN A PLANNING AND
DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE MEETING A MR. MITCH MURRY WAS ADAMANT THAT EMERGENCY
ACCESS WAS INADEQUATE ALONG THE EXISTING RIGHT OF WAY. THE COMMITTEE ASKED IF
WE WOULD BE WILLING TO ACQUIRE THE OTHER TWENTY FEET OF RIGHT OF WAY TO
APPEASE THE NEIGHBORHOOD' S REPRESENTATIVE (MR. MURRY) . THE COST WAS
ESTIMATED TO BE AROUND THREE TO FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS. WE FELT THIS WAS
WITHIN THE BUDGET OF OUR PROJECT AND AGREED.
AT THIS TIME, MR MURRY IS NOW TRYING TO FIGHT OUR ACQUISITION OF THE
RIGHT OF WAY AND HAS SAID HE INTENDS TO OPPOSE OUR ACTIONS THROUGH
THE COURTS. BECAUSE OUR AGRREEMENT TO ACQUIRE THE ROAD WAS ONLY INTENDED
AS A CONCILIATORY GESTURE AIMED AT NEIGHBOORHOD HARMONY, WE DO NOT FEEL
OUR CURRENT COURSE IS APPROPRIATE. WE DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO DEFEND A
LAWSUIT WHICH IS CLEARLY NOT IN OUR BEST INTREST .
THEREFORE PT YOUR SUGGESTION, WE CONTACTED MR. GLEN GORDON OF THE
FIRE DEPPPTMENT AND RECEIVED RECONFIRMATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF 23rd

RE:PP up 015-84 Iloney Creek Associates
Dear Mr. Mayor and Council Members:
I have before me a letter written by Michael Ilanis on behalf of Mitch Murray. In that
letter there is a request that the appeal time be reopened. Apparently Mr. Murray or Mr.
Hanis believes that the council decision concerning the road width can be appealed to the
council once again. The City Council's decision is not appealable to the council itself, but
rather must be appealed to King County Superior Court. The same time limits for appeal to
King County Superior Court exist for the Preliminary Planned Unit Development
Ordinance, and I do not see that any additional appeal time would be necessary.
I also have had an opportunity to review the rather extensive city files, while preparing the
Ordinance on the Iloney Creek Associates PPUD. The language in the file concerning prior
City Council action establishing the 40 foot right-of-way was consistent with the decision
made by the City Council just recently in handling Mr. Murray's request. It would not
appear to me that anything has changed. I also wonder why it has taken so long to request
the council to take this further step to reopen the appeal time. Mr. Murray originally made
that request to the council members and no action was taken on that request. If the
council feels that the decision deviates markedly from the prior council decision to Mr.
Murray's surprise and detriment, then it would be fair to reopen the appeal time. If this
decision is consistent with the council's previous actions, then it would not be appropriate to
open the appeal time. However, as previously explained, the appeal is not to the council but
to the superior court, and it can be made as part of a challenge to the council's Ordinance
on the Preliminary Planned Unit Development.

CARRIED. It was clarified that public meetings will not necessarily be
confined to City Hall, and the City will do whatever is necessary to provide
information to residents to enable them to make an informed decision about
the annexation proposal.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Joan Walker, 1433 Monterey Avenue NE, Renton, favored the annexation
Citizen Comment: Walker process recently used by Kirkland when it doubled its land area and
Fairwood Annexation population in approving Washington's largest annexation in 20 years. She
North Soos Creek) suggested dividing up large potential annexation areas, selecting
representatives from within adjacent City areas to serve on advisory
committees, developing an annexation policy, executing interlocal agreement
with King County, and considering U.S. Census Enumeration Districts as a
guide for setting City boundaries. Councilwoman Mathews clarified that the
survey is to assess attitudes of people in proposed annexing areas to establish
a maximum boundary to study; and after study and receipt of input from
department heads and the community, actual boundaries would be established.
Citizen Comment: Violet Anderson (address above) questioned whether large residential areas
Anderson - Fairwood and rural areas will be surveyed separately. Mr. Parness emphasized that the
Annexation (North Soos survey will be designed to determine results from each separate geographical
Creek)
area, and results from a very general and brief survey will not be used by
City staff to form annexation boundaries, but rather to determine level of
interest. Upon inquiry, he advised that survey questions will be neutral and
phrased in a manner to identify areas of resistance or support.
Citizen Comment: IleIlene Tom Ilellene, 18233 14Ist Avenue SE, Renton, explained that the potential
Fairwood Annexation annexation area is being expanded to determine appropriate service areas and
North Soos Creek) impose an element of control. He agreed that public hearings or meetings
should be held to educate residents, and noted that meetings will be held with
Lake Desire residents this week.
Citizen Comment: Vaupel Versie Vaupel, P.O. Box 755, Renton, indicated disappointment that only
Fairwood Annexation public meetings would be held with residents, and questioned why citizens of
North Soos Creek) Renton are paying for the survey. It was clarified that all options are
available--public meetings, public hearings and surveys--and by state law, a
public hearing must be held by the City Council prior to accepting an
exation.

Transportation
Transportation Committee Chairman Nelson presented a report concurring in
Committee the recommendation of the Public Works Department to require a 28-foot
PUD: Preiiq jparv. honey street section face-of-curb to face-of-curb with a five-foot sidewalk placed
creek. PPUD-015-84, on the south side of NE 23rd Street for the Honey Creek Preliminary PUD.
A minimum 20 feet of right-of-way will be required on the south plus
additional footage for slope easements, if determined necessary.
Displaying a map of the Honey Creek PUD, Mr. Murray described proposed
access to the site via Jefferson to Harrington, both 60 feet wide roadways,
and via 23rd Street, which is proposed to be widened from 20 to 40 or 60
feet. Ile requested that the matter of site access via Devil's Elbow Road
instead of 23rd Street be referred back to the Transportation Committee for
further review, and cited the City's 1987 geotechnical study which estimated
that the roadway could be stabilized for a cost of $92,000, and reopened for
traffic access to the east and access to the sewer pump station serving the
Highlands. Referencing recent Cedar River dredging project, Mr. Murray
suggested that gravel removed from that site could be transferred to Devil's
Elbow, thereby saving the City approximately $30,000 in cost of gravel to

stabilize the road. He also suggested that instead of improving NE 23rd
Street, which he estimated to cost $200,000, the developer contribute funds
towards restoring Devil's Elbow Road.
Councilman Hughes recalled that approval of the Honey Creek PUD was
conditioned upon improvement of NE 23rd Street. MOVED BY NELSON,

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted, published, and
LID: 334, NE 44th Street mailed in accordance with State and local laws, Mayor Clymer opened the
and Lake Washington public hearing to consider the preliminary assessment roll in the total amount
Boulevard of $1,823,943.75 for Local Improvement District No. 334, NE 44th Street and
Lake Washington Boulevard utility and roadway improvements. Total
assessed valuation of property included in the LID is $9,191,000.
Correspondence was read from Public Works Director Richard Houghton
reporting that as of 5:00 p.m. on 3/7/88 no protests to the LID were received.
Correspondence protesting the LID was received after 5:00 p.m.on 3/7/88
from Roger Urbaniak, Managing Partner of Garden of Eden Joint Venture,
Bellmond Realty, Inc., 919 124th Avenue NE, Suite 104, Bellevue,
representing owners of Parcels #11, #12, and #13; Norman McCue, May
Creek Associates, owner of Parcel #4 (Renton Short Plat 052-86); and from
members of Kao Ming-Tsong family, owners of Parcel #9. Mr. Houghton
indicated that owners of Parcel #9 have signed restrictive covenants agreeing
to participate in the LID, and a deferral of off-site improvements, required
as a condition of approval of the short plat, has been granted by the Board of
Public Works for Parcel #4. He reported that including Parcel #9, the total
percentage of protest is 28.76%. Without Parcel #9, protests represent 16.15%
of the total ownership. Restrictive covenants have also been executed by
owners of Parcels #1, #6, and #10. Parcels #1, #7, and #8 are outside the
City limits.
Audience comment was invited. Ralph Evans, 3306 NE llth Place, Renton,
questioned current zoning classification and location of the southern boundary
of Parcel #10. Mr. Houghton advised that B-1, business, zoning exists on the
site, and he provided Mr. Evans with a legal description of the parcel.
Mike Wensman, 10900 NE 8th Street, Bellevue, owner and developer of Lot
3, questioned increase of proposed LID assessment from $250,000 in
August, 1987, to current assessment of $355,000. Mr. Houghton attributed
the increase to addition of $400,000 to the total LID estimate to cover
engineering, administrative, interim financing and bonding costs.
Norman McCue, P.O. Box 622, Kirkland, indicated concern with increased
assessment for Parcel #4 from $81,266 to $181,996 since October, 1986.
Noting that a sewer trunk line terminates at the property line, he questioned
inclusion of $48,441 for sewer connector as well as assessment for traffic
signal at N. 44th Street on-ramp.
Roger Urbaniak, 4112 78th SE, Mercer Island, representing owners of Parcels
11, #12, and #13, indicated that properties were purchased by three
families 15 years ago for retirement purposes, and rezone of the sites is
currently being sought. He questioned whether the LID includes development
of Lincoln Avenue for the purpose of diverting storm drainage, and reported
that he was not contacted to sign the LID petition. It was clarified that
notices were sent to all LID participants 30 days prior to the date of public
hearing.
Michael Dietch, 4126 187th SE, Issaquah, representing Parcel #2, questioned
increased assessment from $8,750 to $39,516. Mr. Houghton reported that
because the parcel was developed and all off-site improvements were
installed, including street light, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks, no front
footage charges were assessed. However, the property owner is being
required to participate in cost of storm drainage facilities and traffic signal at
the on-ramp for the interchange. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED

City Council members, including Randall Rockhill, over the past eight years.
She thanked Council for their dedication and individuality, and discussed

Planning and
Planning and Development Committee Chairman Keolker presented
eve opment a report regarding two appeals filed on the Honey Creek Associates
ommi ee "" rezone and preliminary planned unit development, located in the
oneeyy Creek vicinity of 2200 Jefferson Avenue (Devil ' s Elbow) .
Associates
R-014-84
The Committee report stated that detailed geotechnical and
PPUD-015-84 engineering information must be provided before the final
PUD is approved. Also, full street improvements on a 40-
foot public right-of-way alignment with NE 23rd Street must
be installed to provide access to the development.
iThe Committee recommended that both appeals, from Honey
Creek Associates, developer, and Mitch Murray, area resident ,
be denied. The Committee further recommended that the City
Council approve the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner
and approve the requested zoning for the site subject to
the following conditions:
1 ) Submission of a final PUD for eventual development of the
subject site;
2) Annexation of the site into the City of Renton;
3) Dedication of a full 40-foot wide right-of-way aligned with
NE 23rd Street between Harrington Avenue NE and the site, with
an engineering report and specifications for full-street
improvement as required by City Code;
4) Submission with the final PUD application of a detailed
geotechnical analysis prepared by independent engineers
selected with approval of both Building & Zoning and Public
Works Departments. The report shall include but not be limited
to information regarding site stability/slope integrity;
preservation of ravine and stream close to their current state;
long term erosion potential by the development; geologic
hazards including earthquake analysis; site preparation and
restoration; and building techniques;
5) Plans for the final PUD shall be more detailed, and
provide a description of the usable open space, recreation
and building details;
6) The applicant shall provide a slope easement to the
ultimate owners of the PUD property to avoid problems of
ownership and responsibility if the property is sold. Such
an easement would permit the PUD ownership, whether a single
entity or a homeowner/condominium association, to do
maintenance work on the steep slopes below the proposed PUD.
In addition, the applicant shall record covenants running
with the land requiring that the slope on the west side of
Honey Creek be maintained as closely as is possible in its
natural state;
7) The submission of detailed engineering report regarding
sewer, water, drainage, roadway engineering, etc. ;
8) The elimination of the connection and entry of NE 21st
Street;
Later modified c9) The property zoned G-1 shall have no development upon the
property without the City being provided with detailed
geotechnical information regarding the site and site plan or
PUD approval . The applicant shall sign and file a restrictive
covenant, running with the land, so stating;

Planning & Development Committee Report continued
Honey Creek 10) This is a conceptual approval of a preliminary planned
Associates unit development and does not vest in the applicant or its
R-014-84 successor or assigns any development rights on this parcel
PPUD-015-84 or property without recommendation by city staff and approval
by the Council of the geotechnical studies required above.
Chairman Keolker indicated that the Committee had met several
times to resolve concerns related to emergency access. She
also advised that the 75% Annexation Petition and concurrent
rezone hearing for Honey Creek Associates will be held by the
Council on May 12, 1986.
Referencing Condition No. 9 of the Committee report, Mr.
Tomberg agreed that development of the property on the easterly
side of the ravine cannot proceed until detailed geotechnical
studies and fire and police services are provided. However,
to eliminate the need to reapply for a rezone in the future,
he requested that those parcels be rezoned to R-1 at this
time. He also noted that development cannot proceed until
a PUD is reviewed and approved by the Council . MOVED BY
KEOLKER, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE
REPORT. Councilman Stredicke supported the applicant's
request for R-1 zoning of the property east of the ravine
since there will be further opportunity for the City to
review plans prior to development. MOVED BY STREDICKE,
SECONDED BY CLYMER, COUNCIL AMEND THE MOTION TO CHANGE
CONDITION NO. 9 OF THE COMMITTEE REPORT TO INDICATE THAT
THE AREA EAST OF HONEY CREEK RAVINE BE REZONED TO R-1 ,
WITH THE REST OF THE SENTENCE REMAINING OPERATIVE.* Speaking
against the amendment, Chairman Keolker reminded Council members
that the subject proposal was submitted prior to adoption of
new PUD ordinance; therefore, is being reviewed under old
provisions. If the two parcels east of the ravine are rezoned
to R-1 instead of G-1 , a potential higher density on the entire
site could be calculated due to density shifts allowed under
the PUD process. The stability of the site is in question,
access is unresolved, and provision of fire and police
protection is yet to be determined. Councilman Stredicke
felt these concerns can be resolved during future review.
ROLL CALL: 4 AYES: TRIMM, CLYMER, HUGHES, STREDICKE. 3 NAYS:
MATHEWS, KEOLKER, REED. CARRIED. MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED.
CARRIED. City Attorney Warren clarified that the intent of
the motion is to change the wording of Condition No. 9 to
reflect that both of the flat parcels east of the ravine
zoned R-1 shall have no development without provision of
required studies, but G-1 zoned property would retain the
same restrictions as well as zoning constraints which allow
only one dwelling unit per 35,000 square feet.

Citizen Comment: Evans Review Committee recently issued a Declaration of Environmental Non-
Good Shepherd Group Significance for rezone proposals on Shelton Avenue NE and Olympia
Home Rezone, R-015-88 Avenue NE, and established a 14-day period for submission of appeals. He
noted that the environmental declaration was published in the newspaper and
posted on or near the sites as required; however, errors in property
description and scope of proposals have caused confusion to residents. In
view of 6/10/88 deadline for submission of appeals, Mr. Evans asked that the
appeal period be extended or the review process repeated after errors are
corrected. Mayor Clymer agreed to review the matter with City Attorney
Warren and report back to Mr. Evans prior to expiration of the appeal period.

is being gained through a vandalized gate at Jefferson Street and through
damaged fencing adjacent to a locked gate across Devil's Elbow Road. Mr.
Murray advised that police have been responsive to residents' calls, but since
they do not have keys to the gate, access to Devil's Elbow Road is hampered.

Department and repair the two fences. Mayor Clymer agreed to review the
matter with staff.

Advancement Requested Randy Corman, 2216 Harrington Place NE, Renton, requested advancement
to the matter of condemnation of property for the Honey Creek PUD.
MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY MATHEWS, COUNCIL
SUSPEND THE REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS AND ADVANCE TO
CORRESPONDENCE. CARRIED.
CORRESPONDENCE Correspondence was read from Randal and Catherine L. Corman, address
PUD: Preliminary, Honey above, opposing condemnation of 20-foot by 280-foot parcel of their
Creek, PPUD-015-84 property for purposes of extending NE 23rd Street as access to the Honey
Creek PUD. The letter questioned whether the City's right of eminent
domain could be applied in this condemnation since proposed access is
designed to provide convenient access into the Honey Creek development and
does not benefit the Renton populace as a whole; 2) questioned
reimbursement of condemnation costs for both sides by the City or developer
if the condemnation fails, and suggested that the developer's funds would be
better spent on improving other access including Devil's Elbow Road. Mr.
Corman stated that he does not oppose the development, but is against being
forced to sell property to a neighbor solely for the neighbor's benefit; and the
subject portion of property is vital to maintain property value and preserve
30 50-foot high trees which contribute to privacy and tranquil quality of his
back yard. He urged the City Council to abandon the condemnation and
require the developer to provide alternative access into the site.
Ways and Means Ways and Means Committee Chairman Stredicke presented the following
Committee ordinance for second and final reading:
Annexation: Honey An ordinance was read authorizing the acquisition of certain property and
Creek, NE 23rd Street property rights by eminent domain providing for the payment thereof;
Condemnation authorizing the City Attorney to prepare a petition for condemnation in King
County Superior Court and for the prosecution thereof for the acquisition of
such property and property rights for roadway purposes; NE 23rd Street;
Honey Creek PPUD-015-84.
City Attorney Kellogg was asked by Council to clarify Section III of the
ordinance which states that compensation for the acquisition shall be from the
City's General Fund. Mr. Kellogg explained full responsibility of the
developer to compensate the City's General Fund for cost of condemnation
proceedings. He also indicated that if Council decides that this is a public
use, that the public interest requires the public use, and the property
appropriated is necessary for the purpose, the Court will consider that finding
and give it great weight. He reviewed recent findings in similar court case in
which the Court disagreed; however, he pointed out that the distinction
between that case and the City's case is lack of alternative access by the
developer of Honey Creek PUD. Upon further Council inquiry regarding
whether the developer will pay all City costs of condemnation regardless of
outcome, Mr. Kellogg indicated that a contract has not yet been developed
for that purpose with the owner of Honey Creek PUD; however, the City is
very concerned with this aspect due to significant risk involved. MOVED
BY MATHEWS, SECONDED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, COUNCIL
REFER THIS MATTER BACK TO WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE
UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE CITY ATTORNEY CAN NEGOTIATE A
CONTRACT WITH THE APPLICANT FOR RESPONSIBILITY OF COSTS
OF CONDEMNATION. CARRIED.
Citizen Comment: Murray Mitch Murray, 2813 NE 23rd Place, Renton, felt that condemnation funds
NE 23rd Street could be better spent in upgrading surrounding roads such as Devil's Elbow.
Condemnation He requested that consideration be given by Council to having the developer
also assume costs incurred by Mr. Corman during the proceedings.
Citizen Comment: Lawrence Damman, 2809 NE 23rd Place, Renton, pointed out that although
Damman - NE 23rd Devil's Elbow Road has proven to be expensive to repair and maintain, the
Street Condemnation same problems may exist on NE 23rd Street since terrain is similar. He
questioned condemnation of private property to help a developer construct a
project, and expressed concern that consideration to the developer is
threatening rights of existing City residents. Mr. Damman disputed the
contention that improvement of NE 23rd Street would improve traffic
circulation in the area, and claimed that the road would be a single feed from
a private development to public access, used only by residents of the
proposed development.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Council ,
As the owners of the 20 ' X 280 ' parcel of property
proposed for condemnation to extend Northeast 23rd Street ,
we wish to redirect the city' s actions such that Renton
taxpayers ' funds are not wasted and our rights are not
jeopardized. Condemnation of our property is not
justified. We request that you review the attached
correspondence we have shared with the city attorney on
this matter, and we wish to summarize some main points
below.
Public Use
We and the rest of the Renton populace would gain
nothing from this condemnation. The related development
would of course increase the tax base, but not enough to
significantly offset the increased costs of fire and police
protection. The condemnation would not be providing
improved traffic management, a park, a civic center, senior
housing, or anything else to improve the quality of life in
our neighborhood or Renton as a whole. Even the connection
of Jefferson to Northeast 23rd Street is not designed to
meet public need, but instead only to provide convenient
access to Messrs. Santa and Tomberg ' s investment property.
We doubt that eminent domain can be successfully
applied under these circumstances.
Legal Costs
The public records clearly show that Messrs. Santa and
Tomberg have agreed to reimburse the city for the costs of
condemning our property. But what about the potentially
much higher costs of attempting and failing to condemn it?
If condemnation fails , the city will get both parties '
legal bills, and the developer will get nothing . If you
elect to proceed with condemnation, you should protect
Renton taxpayers by getting an explicit agreement from the
developer to pay legal costs even if condemnation fails
our costs will be included) . Personally, we hope such an
agreement would cause the developers to recalculate the
risks of condemnation and pursue a new plan. The
developers ' funds could be more fruitfully expended on
improvements to the Honey Creek development and surrounding
properties including Devil 's Elbow Road.
Conclusion
As we have repeatedly stated, we are not against
development of the Honey Creek Associates property. We are
against being forced to sell property to a neighbor solely
for the neighbor 's benefit, and fighting for years to get
properly compensated for it.
The subject portion of our property is vital to
preserving the forested, tranquil quality of our backyard,
and fair market value will be difficult to ascertain in
court. Unfortunately, good faith attempts to negotiate a
price have been clouded by the developers ' presumption that
they could condemn the property. We feel the council
should abandon the pursuit of condemnation, and encourage
Honey Creek Associates to pursue negotiations or
alternatives.
Sincerely,
Randal A. Corman

O. Box 626
100 S. 2nd Street
2enton, WA 98057
Dear Mr. Warren:
Thank you for your promptness in responding to our
inquiries and for your diligence in forwarding relevant
correspondence to us .
Our attorney briefly responded to some items in your
January 16 letter, but we thought that you would appreciate a
more specific and personal list of concerns. Also, we are
accepting your invitation to ask additional questions. This
is necessary because we cannot negotiate a price for a portion
of our land until we know how our remaining property will be
affected.
Specific concern areas are as follows:
Traffic -- What is the latest estimate of number of car
trips per day expected on the proposed extension of N.E. 23
Street? What recourse do we have if the actual traffic
exceeds the estimate? We are greatly concerned about vehicles
passing so closly to the side of our house and yard. We are
especially concerned about our daughter ' s safety and the
potential loss of value to our home.
Noise -- What is the predicted noise intensity that our
home would be subjected to if the proposed road were in place?
While we value Mr. Houghton ' s opinion regarding noise, we
would feel most comfortable with a quantitative prediction of
noise levels (decibles ) at our home. This prediction should
consider the steep grade proposed for the road and all modes
of traffic expected ( including delivery and garbage trucks ) .
We would find it most informative if these calculations were
accompanied by measured values of the current noise intensity
at our home ( twenty-seven feet -from proposed road) . Again,
what recourse will we have if actual impact is more severe
L. Warren
Page 2
February 10, 1987
than predicted impact?
Air Pollution -- We are concerned with the impact on our
health as well as the smell of vehicle exhaust.
Separation of Neighborhood -- The proposed road would
divide our established neighborhood, physically separating our
home from a modern and attractive community on N.E. 23rd
Place. In addition, our personal relationships with our
neighbors may be compromised if our settlement with Honey
Creek Associates results in a reduction of their property
values .
Garbage -- Who would be responsible for keeping the new
roadside and sidewalks clean?
Change in Character -- Currently, our backyard is
tranquil and forest-like. We are concerned that the proposed
road will destroy our back yard ' s character.
Road Engineering -- We cannot assess the impact of the
road on our home ' s value without seeing construction plans.
We are concerned with the location of streetlights, sidewalks ,
and rockeries. Also will there be a fence and landscaping?
How will run-off water be controlled? How will the
intersection of Harrington P1 . N. E. and N.E. 23rd St. be
handled (stop signs, light , uncontrolled)?
These are some of our main concerns at this time. We are
a bit puzzled , though, by the city' s wanting to buy our
land. We do not see how the general public will get any
advantage from this road. Only the private developers benefit
from the proposed road. In addition, the developers
concerned, Messrs. Santa and Tomberg, have not seriously tried
to negotiate with us. We have received no written offers from
them, and the verbal offer from Mr. Santa was for only zero
dollars. We did not consider that a serious offer. We have
reviewed the letter that Mr. Hendrickson sent to the city
council requesting condemnation of our land (Aug 27, 1986) .
The offer refered to in that letter was never extended to us .
Furthermore, the dollar amount stated in that letter was
grossly undercalculated, even when determined on the
per-square-foot basis" that Mr. Hendrickson claimed he was
L. Warren
Page 3
February 10, 1987
using .
We feel that if you truly wish to promote a settlement
between Honey Creek Associates and ourselves, you should
encourage the developers to asses the true impact of their
road on our home ' s value, and make an appropriate offer if
they feel they can afford to adequatly compensate us.

Re: Honey Creek Annexation/Randal Corman and Mitch Murray
Dear Mr. Warren:
Randal Corman and Mitch Murray have asked me to assist them with
their opposition to the Honey Creek Associates Annexation to the
City of Renton. I have reviewed the documents that exist to date,
have researched the legal issues , and am requesting on their behalf
that the City' s contemplated actions be reconsidered.
The first issue which I will address is that of condemning Mr.
Corman ' s property. I have read your letter of October 6, 1986,
indicating that because of the failure of Honey Creek Associates to
acquire property of Mr. Corman's, the City will use its
condemnation powers to accomplish that for the developer. I have
read the Minutes, and they indicate that an agreement was reached
between the City and developer for the developer to pay the City' s
costs of condemnation. It seems to be the City' s approach that
since Mr. Corman was "unreasonable" regarding a price or
negotiation with Honey Creek Associates, that provides sufficient
basis for the City to use its condemnation powers. We strongly
disagree with that.
Mr. Corman has no obligation to give Honey Creek Associates the
time of day. His property is private, and he has a right to keep it
that way. He is under no obligation whatsoever to negotiate with
Honey Creek Associates , or to give up his private property to
assist them with a portion of a development which he strongly
opposes.
Having examined the Minutes of the City Council meetings, and the
correspondence, it also appears that the City would be
unsuccessful in a condemnation case under these circumstances.
The case of King County v. Theilman, 59 Wn. 2nd 586 (1982) , is
precisely on point to the fact pattern that has arisen between the
Mr. Lawrence Warren
January 26, 1987
Page Two
City and Mr. Corman. There, King County attempted to enter into
the same kind of an agreement with a developer for acquisition of a
right-of-way. The basis there was that the property owner had
been unreasonable in negotiating with the private developer. The
property sought was to be dedicated to public use, as it would be
here. In all important respects, that case is identical . The
court there stated:
Though we do not think the County' s
participation in taking relator's property by
eminent domain is a cloak to cover private
objectives , the effect of this action is to allow
a private party to do indirectly that which the
law prevents him from doing directly. The
ultimate effect is to allow a neighboring land
developer to take private property for a private
use. This action is the County' s in name only.
It had no funds budgeted either to acquire
relator ' s land or to build the road across it.
The record can not support a conclusion that
public use and necessity require condemnation of
relator' s property; hence, the action of the
Board of County Commissioners was sufficiently
arbitrary and capricious to "amount to
constructive fraud" .
Theilman, page 595-6.
In the Honey Creek Associates matter, Honey Creek Associates has
other access to its property that could be used in lieu of the
Corman parcel , and which already has sufficient width of right-of-
way. I am referring to the Devil ' s Elbow Road. Honey Creek' s and
the City of Renton' s objections to that route is apparently its
cost. The cost to a private developer would, however, not
constitute an appropriate basis for the City to condemn Mr.
Carman ' s land. There is an alternative access that can meet the
private developer' s needs . It should be utilized, as recommended
by the Hearing Examiner, at least as additional access to the
project (Examiner Finding #13) .
I would also take issue with the contention of the City that there
may be "special benefits" to Mr. Carman 's property. I
preliminarily investigated this with appraisers, and they
indicate that under the circumstances of this particular piece of
property, the road would in fact damage the fair market value of the
property, and would provide no special benefits. Without
Mr. Lawrence Warren
January 26 , 1987
Page Three
detailed plans , though, it is not completely possible to determine
the severance damage to the remainder of the property. Of course,
because the proposed taking is only partial , Mr. Corman is entitled
to specific plans and specifications of the use to which his
property is to be put. You letter of January 16, 1987, indicates
that the City does not have sufficient plans yet to allow proper
evaluation of the severance issue.
My investigation has also included a discussion of this matter with
the King County Boundary Review Board staff. Apparently, Renton
has been' required to re-submit its proposal , giving the
application a new effective date of filing with the BRB. I
understand that the staff of the BRB and the King County Building
Department people feel that this annexation is inappropriate
because of its failure to include the Devil ' s Elbow area. Without
including that area, the boundaries of the annexation are
irregular. Again, the City is apparently attempting to avoid the
cost of having to upgrade and maintain Devil 's Elbow road. We
would submit that the developer in this case should be required to
do that, not the City. In any event, my clients will oppose the
City ' s annexation as it is presently structured before the
CBoundary Review Board, and the courts if necessary. It may well be
that the developer would wish to reconsider its plans, and
recognize that in the long run it may be a less expensive, and
better project if the traffic pattern is completed through the
Devil ' s Elbow area, rather than through existing, established
residential uses.
My clients do not oppose the developer's plan itself. They will
cooperate in all respects. Their specific objection is to a major
access to that development being through their neighborhood.
They have carefully protected the character of their property, and
the nature of the neighborhood. I am advised that several other of
the residents in the area will participate in opposing the
annexation if it includes the use of their dead end street as an
access.
There are a number of other concerns that Mr. Corman and Mr. Murray
raised with me while they were here. They were concerned about the
City allowing this developer to -serve its developement with a
substandard width road. Apparently, the City has somehow in
advance indicated that it would accept a 40-foot right-of-way for
this road.' A 40-foot right-of-way is allowed by City ordinance
only for one way hillside roadways.
My clients are also concerned with the City' s compliance with SEPA.
I am aware that the same kinds of questions are being raised at the
County and BRB level regarding the City' s Declaration of Non-
significance. It would be hoped that however this project
Mr. Lawrence Warren
January 26, 1987
Page Four
proceeds, the City would consider an Environmental Impact
Statement. This project is in a unique area of steep slopes and
waterways. Much of it apparently will be maintained in its
natural state, a recognition that there are environmental concerns
which need protection. I have not investigated whether a
challenge to the City' s SEPA decisions would be timely. However,
we would certainly argue both before the County and the BRB that the
SEPA compliance is insufficient to authorize their approval of
this annexation.
Again, I would urge the City and the developer to reconsider its
proposed method of providing road access to this development. My
clients feel strongly, and are prepared to undertake whatever
effort is necessary to oppose the development and the annexation so
long as it has the potential for running an access road across their
property and through their neighborhood.

Re: Honey Creek Annexation/Randal Corman
and Mitch Murray
Dear Mr. Hanis:
Thank you for your letter of January 26, 1987. I am somewhat
puzzled why you chose to direct it to me rather than the City
Council. In your letter you ask the City to reconsider certain
steps that have been taken in the past. Those steps were taken
primarily by the City Council. As you know, I have no power
to reconsider an action taken by the City Council.
In your letter you make a suggestion that the Devil' s Elbow
road would be an adequate access to the Honey Creek property.
The Devil' s Elbow road is not adequate access to any place.
The road is on a shifting, sliding hillside and is not stable
for use. The City has blocked off the road at the point at
which it enters the City. The Public Works Department feels
that a major capital improvement would be necessary before that
road is usable.
You question the declaration of non-significance issued in this
case. As you know, the declaration now stands as it was not
appealed within the statutory period of time.
You indicate that your clients will contest this annexation
before the Boundary Review Board. That is their right and the
City certainly has no objection to them exercising that right.
I have found both Mr. Murray and Mr. Corman to be responsible
and courteous people. I am sure they will make an effective
presentation to the Boundary Review Board.

Your letter mentions the fact that plans are not final for the
roadway in front of the Corman residence nor is the Boundary
Review Board action complete or the annexation final. I believe
I have acknowledged all of those points with Mr. Corman and
that I am not suggesting that any final acquisition of this
property take place before the annexation is finalized.
Finally, I have reviewed the case of King County v. Theilman,
59 Wn. 2d. 586 (1962) . Your letter incorrectly states the date
as 1982 . The change in dates is significant because of SEPA.
I have also reviewed that case and found that the public road
was, in fact, nothing but an access road to serve private
development. In the case we are discussing, there is already an
existing public road that is being widened. I think that
distinction is important and therefore believe that the Theilman
case is distinguishable. However, if your position is correct
and the City may not use its condemnation powers, then I believe
that the property owner has a case for a private way of necessity.
I will forward copies of your letter and this response to the City
Council and Environmental Review Committee (the responsible public
official under SEPA) , the Public Works Department and the attorney
for Honey Creek Associates . I do not assume the responsibility of
insuring that this correspondence is placed on any party's or
body' s agenda.

Re: Honey Creek Annexation/Randal Corman and Mitch Murray
Dear Mr. and Mrs . Corman:
I assumed you had received a copy of this letter, but on second
thought became concerned that you had not. It is Larry Warren' s
response to my letter on your behalf.
Larry indicates in the letter that he thinks the Theilman case is
not applicable because it is before the adoption of the State
Envirnomental Policy Act. SEPA is irrelevant to the issue of
condemnation powers , so I 'm not sure what his point is.
Additionally, he refers to a "private way of necessity" . A
private way of necessity allows only for minimum access. There is
no basis in that doctrine for widening an existing access . As a
matter of fact, attempts to use that doctrine to gain an access big
enough upon which to put a legal road have failed. The courts have
uniformly ruled that only a minimum access, usually a driveway, is
allowable. Also, that doctrine only applies when land is totally
land-locked from any other way out. None of that applies here.
In any event, I don ' t see anything in his letter that would indicate
a change in the strength of your position.
I will not make response to this letter. I have seen your letter to
him, and believe you are approaching the matter correctly.
However, if you have any questions or wish me to take any further
action, please let me know.

would be incurred by vehicles entering or exiting from high-volume NE 4th
Street at the proposed access point; and suggested that instead of vacating the
street, a barricade be erected which could be removed for use by emergency
vehicles.
Discussion held by Council and staff indicated that if the proposal is
approved, the vacated property would revert to the abutting owners at a cost
to be determined by the City Council; access for the undeveloped
commercial/multifamily property to the north would be determined at the
time of development; and options other than vacation could be reviewed by
the Board of Public Works that would meet the intent of the residents but
would not foreclose the option of secondary emergency access. MOVED BY
STREDICKE, SECONDED BY TRIMM, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC
HEARING. CARRIED.
Upon Council inquiry regarding possible use of the vacated property as a
community tot lot to be maintained by the homeowners, City Attorney
Kellogg reported that, if vacated, the land would legally revert to the
abutting property owners. Noting concern that the proposed vacation would
cause one of the abutting lots to be landlocked, Mr. Kellogg expressed doubt
that title insurance could be obtained for property not abutting on a public
street. MOVED BY REED, SECONDED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER,
COUNCIL REFER THIS MATTER TO THE ADMINISTRATION TO
WORK WITH THE HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION TO ARRIVE AT AN

barricade may be a solution which would meet the needs of the neighborhood
and still retain the option for future secondary access. MOTION CARRIED.

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published
Annexation: Honey Creek in accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Clymer opened the public
Phase III Rezone hearing to consider rezone of the Phase III portion of the Honey Creek
Annexation to impose R-1, single family residential zoning, on approximately
13.35 acres located in the vicinity of NE 18th Street (if extended) and
Monroe Avenue NE (if extended). Phase III was added to the annexation
scope in response to a requirement by the King County Boundary Review
Board that the City include Devil's Elbow Road right-of-way and the two
additional parcels located to the northwest of the road. Annexation of this
property was approved by the City Council on 11/25/87.
Referring to a vicinity map, Policy Development Director Larry Springer
described the subject site which consists of three parcels each containing a
mobile home and one parcel which remains undeveloped. Although steep
slopes exist to the north, the subject site is relatively flat, and prior to
annexation, was zoned SR-7200, a single family designation in King County.
Mr. Springer recommended that the City Council reclassify the Phase III
property to R-1, single family residential, and refer the matter to Ways and
Means Committee for appropriate legislation.
Audience comment was invited. Margaret Webb, 14126 150th Place SE,
owner of rental properties in the area, asked whether Kirkland Place NE
would be used as access to the subject site. Carrie Trimnell, Policy
Development Department Assistant Planner, pointed out existing access points
on the vicinity map. Mr. Springer indicated the possibility that Kirkland
Place NE would be used as access, but he advised that a permanent roadway
system will be determined at the time properties are developed. MOVED BY

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Council ,
As the owners of the 20' X 280' parcel of property
proposed for condemnation to extend Northeast 23rd Street ,
we wish to redirect the city's actions such that Renton
taxpayers ' funds are not wasted and our rights are not
jeopardized. Condemnation of our property is not
justified. We request that you review the attached
correspondence we have shared with the city attorney on
this matter, and we wish to summarize some main points
below.
Public Use
We and the rest of the Renton populace would gain
nothing from this condemnation. The related development
would of course increase the tax base, but not enough to
significantly offset the increased costs of fire and police
protection. The condemnation would not be providing
improved traffic management, a park, a civic center, senior
housing, or anything else to improve the quality of life in
our neighborhood or Renton as a whole. Even the connection
of Jefferson to Northeast 23rd Street is not designed to
meet public need, but instead only to provide convenient
access to Messrs. Santa and Tomberg 's investment property.
We doubt that eminent domain can be successfully
applied under these circumstances.
Legal Costs
The public records clearly show that Messrs. Santa and
Tomberg have agreed to reimburse the city for the costs of
condemning our property. But what about the potentially
much higher costs of attempting and failing to condemn it?
If condemnation fails, the city will get both parties '
legal bills, and the developer will get nothing. If you
elect to proceed with condemnation, you should protect
Renton taxpayers by getting an explicit agreement from the
developer to pay legal costs even if condemnation fails
our costs will be included) . Personally, we hope such an
agreement would cause the developers to recalculate the
risks of condemnation and pursue a new plan. The
developers ' funds could be more fruitfully expended on
improvements to the Honey Creek development and surrounding
properties including Devil 's Elbow Road.
Conclusion
As we have repeatedly stated, we are not against
development of the Honey Creek Associates property. We are
against being forced to sell property to a neighbor solely
for the neighbor 's benefit, and fighting for years to get
properly compensated for it.
The subject portion of our property is vital to
preserving the forested, tranquil quality of our backyard,
and fair market value will be difficult to ascertain in
court. Unfortunately, good faith attempts to negotiate a
price have been clouded by the developers ' presumption that
they could condemn the property. We feel the council
should abandon the pursuit of condemnation, and encourage
Honey Creek Associates to pursue negotiations or
alternatives.
Sincerely,
Randal A. Corman

Renton, WA 98057
Dear Mr. Warren:
Thank you for your promptness in responding to our
inquiries and for your diligence in forwarding relevant
correspondence to us.
Our attorney briefly responded to some items in your
January 16 letter, but we thought that you would appreciate a
more specific and personal list of concerns. Also, we are
accepting your invitation to ask additional questions. This
is necessary because we cannot negotiate a price for a portion
of our land until we know how our remaining property will be
affected.
Specific concern areas are as follows:
Traffic -- What is the latest estimate of number of car
trips per day expected on the proposed extension of N.E. 23
Street? What recourse do we have if the actual traffic
exceeds the estimate? We are greatly concerned about vehicles
passing so closly to the side of our house and yard. We are
especially concerned about our daughter's safety and the
potential loss of value to our home.
Noise -- What is the predicted noise intensity that our
home would be subjected to if the proposed road were in place?
Wzile we value Mr. Houghton ' s opinion regarding noise, we
would feel most comfortable with a quantitative prediction of
noise levels (decibles ) at our home. This prediction should
consider the steep grade proposed for the road and all modes
of traffic expected ( including delivery and garbage trucks ) .
We would find it most informative if these calculations were
accompanied by measured values of the current noise intensity
at our home ( twenty-seven feet- from proposed road) . Again,
what recourse will we have if actual impact is more severe
L. Warren
Page 2
February 10, 1987
than predicted impact?
Air Pollution -- We are concerned with the impact on our
realth as well as the smell of vehicle exhaust.
Separation of Neighborhood -- The proposed road would
divide our established neighborhood, physically separating our
come from a modern and attractive community on N.E. 23rd
Place. In addition, our personal relationships with our
neighbors may be compromised if our settlement with Honey
Creek Associates results in a reduction of their property
values .
Garbage -- Who would be responsible for keeping the new
roadside and sidewalks clean?
Change in Character -- Currently, our backyard is
tranquil and forest-like. We are concerned that the proposed
road will destroy our back yard 's character.
Road Engineering -- We cannot assess the impact of the
road on our home 's value without seeing construction plans.
We are concerned with the location of streetlights, sidewalks ,
and rockeries. Also will there be a fence and landscaping?
How will run-off water be controlled? How will the
intersection of Harrington P1 . N.E. and N.E. 23rd St. be
handled (stop signs , light, uncontrolled)?
These are some of our main concerns at this time. We are
a bit puzzled , though, by the city's wanting to buy our
land. We do not see how the general public will get any
advantage from this road. Only the private developers benefit
from the proposed road. In addition, the developers
concerned, Messrs. Santa and Tomberg, have not seriously tried
to negotiate with us. We have received no written offers from
them, and the verbal offer from Mr. Santa was for only zero
dollars. We did not consider that a serious offer. We have
reviewed the letter that Mr. Hendrickson sent to the city
council requesting condemnation of our land (Aug 27, 1986) .
The offer refered to in that letter was never extended to us .
Furthermore, the dollar amount stated in that letter was
grossly undercalculated, even when determined on the
per-square-foot basis" that Mr. Hendrickson claimed he was
L. Warren
PE ge 3
FEbruary 10, 1987
using.
We feel that if you truly wish to promote a settlement
between Honey Creek Associates and ourselves, you should
encourage the developers to asses the true impact of their
rcad on our home ' s value, and make an appropriate offer if
they feel they can afford to adequatly compensate us.
Sincerely,
C6"—

Re: Honey Creek Annexation/Randal Corman and Mitch Murray
Dear: Mr. Warren:
Ran.ial Corman and Mitch Murray have asked me to assist them with
their opposition to the Honey Creek Associates Annexation to the
City of Renton. I have reviewed the documents that exist to date,
have researched the legal issues , and am requesting on their behalf
that the City' s contemplated actions be reconsidered.
The first issue which I will address is that of condemning Mr.
Corman ' s property. I have read your letter of October 6 , 1986,
ind _cating that because of the failure of Honey Creek Associates to
acquire property of Mr. Corman ' s , the City will use its
condemnation powers to accomplish that for the developer. I have
read the Minutes , and they indicate that an agreement was reached
between the City and developer for the developer to pay the City ' s
cos.:s of condemnation. It seems to be the City' s approach that
since Mr. Corman was "unreasonable" regarding a price or
negotiation with Honey Creek Associates, that provides sufficient
basis for the City to use its condemnation powers. We strongly
disagree with that.
Mr . Corman has no obligation to give Honey Creek Associates the
time of day. His property is private, and he has a right to keep it
tha:;: way. He is under no obligation whatsoever to negotiate with
Honey Creek Associates , or to give up his private property to
assist them with a portion of a development which he strongly
opposes.
Hav:i_ng examined the Minutes of the City Council meetings, and the
correspondence, it also appears that the City would be
unsuccessful in a condemnation case under these circumstances. _
The case of King County v. Theilman, 59 Wn. 2nd 586 (1982) , is
precisely on point to the fact pattern that has arisen between the
Mr. Lawrence Warren
January 26, 1987
Pagf: Two
City and Mr. Corman. There, King County attempted to enter into
the same kind of an agreement with a developer for acquisition of a
rigl:t-of-way. The basis there was that the property owner had
beer unreasonable in negotiating with the private developer. The
property sought was to be dedicated to public use, as it would be
here . In all important respects, that case is identical . The
court there stated:
Though we do not think the County' s
participation in taking relator's property by
eminent domain is a cloak to cover private
objectives, the effect of this action is to allow
a private party to do indirectly that which the
law prevents him from doing directly. The
ultimate effect is to allow a neighboring land
developer to take private property for a private
use. This action is the County' s in name only.
It had no funds budgeted either to acquire
relator ' s land or to build the road across it.
The record can not support a conclusion that
public use and necessity require condemnation of
relator ' s property; hence, the action of the
Board of County Commissioners was sufficiently
arbitrary and capricious to "amount to
constructive fraud" .
Theilman, page 595-6.
In the Honey Creek Associates matter, Honey Creek Associates has
other access to its property that could be used in lieu of the
Corman parcel , and which already has sufficient width of right-of-
way. I am referring to the Devil ' s Elbow Road. Honey Creek ' s and •
the of Renton' s objections to that route is apparently its
cost. The cost to a private developer would, however, not
constitute an appropriate basis for the City to condemn Mr.
Corman ' s land. There is an alternative access that can meet the
private developer' s needs . It should be utilized, as recommended
by the Hearing Examiner, at least as additional access to the
project (Examiner Finding #13) .

may be "special benefits" to Mr. Corman 's property. I

to specific plans and specifications of the use to which his
pr Dperty is to be put. You letter of January 16, 1987, indicates

presentation to the Boundary Review Board.

Mr. Michael Hanis

January 28, 1987
Your letter mentions the fact that plans are not final for the
roadway in front of the Corman residence nor is the Boundary
Review Board action complete or the annexation final. I believe
I have acknowledged all of those points with Mr. Corman and
that I am not suggesting that any final acquisition of this
property take place before the annexation is finalized.
inally, I have reviewed the case of King County v. Theilman,
59 Wn. 2d. 586 (1962) . Your letter incorrectly states the date
gas 1982 . The change in dates is significant because of SEPA.
have also reviewed that case and found that the public road
was, in fact, nothing but an access road to serve private
development. In the case we are discussing, there is already an
existing public road that is being widened. I think that
distinction is important and therefore believe that the Theilman
case is distinguishable. However, if your position is correct
and the City may not use its condemnation powers, then I believe
t.zat the property owner has a case for a private way of necessity.
I will forward copies of your letter and this response to the City
C uncil and Environmental Review Committee (the responsible public
ot-ficial under SEPA) , the Public Works Department and the attorney
for Honey Creek Associates . I do not assume the responsibility of
insuring that this correspondence is placed on any party's or
body' s agenda.
Very truly yours,

Re: Honey Creek Annexation/Randal Corman and Mitch Murray
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Corman:
I assumed you had received a copy of this letter, but on second
thought became concerned that you had not. It is Larry Warren' s
response to my letter on your behalf.
Larry indicates in the letter that he thinks the Theilman case is
not applicable because it is before the adoption of the State
Envirnomental Policy Act. SEPA is irrelevant to the issue of
condemnation powers, so I 'm not sure what his point is.
Additionally, he refers to a "private way of necessity" . A
private way of necessity allows only for minimum access. There is
no basis in that doctrine for widening an existing access . As a
matter of fact, attempts-to use that doctrine to gain an access big
enough upon which to put a legal road have failed. The courts have
uniformly ruled that only a minimum access, usually a driveway, is
allowable. Also, that doctrine only applies when land is totally
land-locked from any other way out. None of that applies here.
In any event, I don' t see anything in his letter that would indicate
a change in the strength of your position.
I will not make response to this letter. I have seen your letter to
him, and believe you are approaching the matter correctly.
However, if you have any questions or wish me to take any further
action, please let me know.
Very truly yours,
HANIS & OLSON

ZONING SUMMARY
HONEY CREEK ANNEXATION and REZONE - pha III
Public Hearing - April 18, 1988
LOCATION
The area encompassed by the Honey Creek Annexation and Rezone - phase III consists
of approximately 13.35 acres located in the vicinity of NE 18th Street (if extended) and
Monroe Avenue NE (if extended) (see Figure 1).
SUMMARY
The subject site consists of four parcels, all of which are privately owned. One of the
parcels is undeveloped, and a total of three mobiles homes are located on the remaining
three parcels. The site is relatively flat; Honey Creek and the steep slopes surrounding
the ravine are located to the north of the subject site. Prior to annexation, the subject
site was zoned SR-7200 in King County. This is a single-family residential zone which
requires a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet.
The Renton City Council accepted the original Honey Creek Annexation on May 12,
1986. Public hearings were held on the imposition of zoning on the properties
encompassed by the original annexation and rezone application on December 31, 1985
and May 12, 1986, and the City Council recently approved the required zoning
ordinance. The King County Boundary Review Board invoked jurisdiction on the
annexation and subsequently required the City to modify the annexation boundaries in
order to include the Devil's Elbow Road right-of-way and the two additional parcels of
land located to the northwest of the road. The Renton City Council approved the
addition of these properties on October 19, 1987 and imposition of G-1 zoning was
approved by the Council on March 21, 1988. The annexation became effective on
November 25, 1987.
Since the property encompassed by the phase III rezone is currently within the City
limits, only one public hearing is required to consider the imposition of zoning.
RECOMMENDATION
The Policy Development Department recommends that Council impose R-1 Single-
Family Residential zoning on the property encompassed by the Honey Creek Annexation
and Rezone - phase III. This zone will correspond to the previous King County SR-
7200 zone.
If Council concurs in this recommendation, the Policy Development Department further
recommends that Council authorize the preparation of an ordinance rezoning this
property.

April 4. 1988 Renton City Council Minutes Page 107
Planning and Planning and Development Committee Chairman Mathews presented a report
Development Committee regarding the Ray Brown request for deferral of improvements for short plat,
Policy: Bonds and File No. Sh. Pl. 002-86. The Planning and Development Committee met
Deferrals (Ray Brown, twice on this topic. City ordinance permits deferral of certain on and off-
Sh. Pl. 002-86) site improvements for single family short plats. The subject short plat is
multifamily (R-2), located on Monroe Avenue NE. However, because of
topography and distance to certain utilities, circumstances are unique and the
Committee found that it would constitute a hardship for the owner to install
the improvements 400 feet beyond the subject property to connect to the
storm sewer or to bond for those improvements at this time. There are no
current development plans for this property.
The Committee recommended that because of the unique circumstances, the
subject short plat be permitted a deferral of improvements as outlined in City
Code Section 9-1108.21.H for R-1 property. In all other aspects, the
property shall comply to the underlying R-2 zoning. Because of the unique
circumstances, this decision should not be considered precedential for any
other multifamily parcels. MOVED BY MATHEWS, SECONDED BY REED,

MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 22, 1988
TO: Nancy Mathews, Councilwoman
FROM: Carrie Trimnell, Assistant Planner
SUBJECT: Honey Creek Annexation and Rezone
King County Park Holdings
At the direction of Larry Springer, I have identified the area encompassed by King
County's proposed May Creek Park, the properties which are currently owned by the
King County Parks Department, and the existing Renton and King County zoning
designations applicable to these properties (please refer to the attached map).
King County has numerous land holdings in the vicinity of the Honey Creek Annexation
and Rezone. In King County, these properties are zoned SE - Suburban Estate, which
requires a minimum lot size of 35,000 square feet. The purpose of this zone is to
provide areas for single-family dwellings and related uses at rural densities. The County
owns properties in the City of Renton which are zoned primarily G-1 General Use.
This zone is equivalent to the County's SE zone in both the minimum lot size and the
permitted uses. The County also owns properties in Renton zoned R-1 Single-Family
Residential. In addition, they intend to acquire a parcel currently zoned R-4 High
Density Multi-Family. This property is involved in a City-initiated rezone from R-4 to
staff's recommended G-1.
King County does not have a Public Use zone similar to Renton's P-1 Public Use zone.
In summary, the imposition of G-1 zoning on the Phase II parcel of the Honey Creek
Annexation and Rezone is in keeping with both the City and the County's zoning of the
properties held by the County for the proposed May Creek Park.
I hope this information will be of assistance to you. If you have any questions, or if I
can be of additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at x2552.

March 21, 1988 Renton City Council Minutes Pane 85
Responding to complaints regarding increases in assessments, Mr. Houghton
advised that the increases are due to costs of engineering, sales tax, interest
on bonds, bond attorney, bond discount, and contingency factor which adds
roughly 50% to the overall assessment. He indicated that the estimate takes
into account escalation of costs over the next two years during construction
of the LID.
Referring to restrictive covenants running with the land on Parcels #1, #6,
9, and #10, City Attorney Warren advised that owners of those parcels may
not protest the formation of the LID; however, they may protest the amount
of their assessment at the finalization of the LID roll. He clarified that all
protests heard at this point are in fact protests made to the amount of the
assessment, not the formation of the LID. Finally, he cautioned that at the
final LID assessment roll, the City may not assess the property more than it is
benefited by the improvements, and the benefit is normally measured by the
increase in the fair market value of the property due to the improvements.
Responding to further Council inquiry, Public Works Director Houghton
noted that property owners benefit when the City is responsible for the
coordination of engineering, construction, and inspection of the LID, they
would not receive a bill for approximately 2-1/2 years, and they would have
the option of paying the assessment plus interest over a 10-year period. Mr.
Houghton felt that in view of protest percentage, he would recommend
against the LID. Upon inquiry, he confirmed that 86% of the property
owners had initiated the LID.
Upon inquiry regarding the proposed traffic signal at the I-405 ramp at NE
44th Street, Public Works Director Houghton explained that none of the
parcels would be required by itself to construct the $100,000 signal.
However, as parcels develop, owners would be required to share the cost of
the signal, and since no participants exist on the west side of Lake
Washington Boulevard north of NE 44th, costs would be shared by the entire
area. It was also noted that if this LID is terminated, the City would have to
enforce deferrals that are lapsing, improvements would be installed
piecemeal, and the signal would not be installed. Upon inquiry, Mr.
Houghton indicated that funds could be set aside through the NE 44th traffic
mitigation for installation of the signal and widening of the bridge in the
future.
Responding to Council inquiry, Attorney Warren explained that a deferral is
a grant of a privilege and is reviewed yearly by the City, but if necessary,
the Board of Public Works could call a deferral at any time and order the
improvements. He further noted that NE 44th is an area designated by the
City as an traffic mitigation area by the Environmental Review Committee,
and if the Hearing Examiner does not have jurisdiction to impose
participatory conditions upon development, the Environmental Review
Committee certainly does and has in the past.

PUBLIC HEARING
This being the date set and proper notices having been posted, publishedandAnnexation: Honey mailed in accordance with State and local laws, Mayor Clymer openedtheCreek, Phase II, and
public hearing to consider the concurrent Honey Creek annexationandRezonerezone, Phase II, for 8.73 acres located to the northwest of Devil's Elbow
Road (120th Place SE). Referring to a vicinity map, Policy Development
Director Larry Springer designated the location of the subject site and
provided background information. He explained that the Boundary Review
Board had invoked jurisdiction on the annexation, originally accepted by the
City Council on 5/12/86, and added the Devil's Elbow Road right-of-way
and the two additional parcels of land located to the northwest of the road.
The expanded annexation became effective on 11/25/87, and the subject
hearing is being held to impose G-1, general, zoning on this environmentally
sensitive area in keeping with surrounding G-1 zoning imposed on Phase Ioftheannexation.
March 21. 1988 Renton City Council Minutes Page 86
Upon Council inquiry, Mr. Springer confirmed that King County owns most
of the subject property, it is proposed for future park use, and either G-1 or
P-1, public, zoning would be appropriate on the site since development
potential is limited. Councilwoman Mathews asked for clarification of the
area on which calculation of density for the Honey Creek PUD was based,
and zoning of King County property. Mr. Springer advised that the Building
and Zoning Department would provide a report on the matter. MOVED BY

MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 22, 1988
TO: Nancy Mathews, Councilwoman
FROM: Carrie Trimnell, Assistant Planner
SUBJECT: Honey Creek Annexation and Rezone
King County Park Holdings
At the direction of Larry Springer, I have identified the area encompassed by King
County's proposed May Creek Park, the properties which are currently owned by the
King County Parks Department, and the existing Renton and King County zoning
designations applicable to these properties (please refer to the attached map).
King County has numerous land holdings in the vicinity of the Honey Creek Annexation
and Rezone. In King County, these properties are zoned SE - Suburban Estate, which
requires a minimum lot size of 35,000 square feet. The purpose of this zone is to
provide areas for single-family dwellings and related uses at rural densities. The County
owns properties in the City of Renton which are zoned primarily G-1 General Use.
This zone is equivalent to the County's SE zone in both the minimum lot size and the
permitted uses. The County also owns properties in Renton zoned R-1 Single-Family
Residential. In addition, they intend to acquire a parcel currently zoned R-4 High
Density Multi-Family. This property is involved in a City-initiated rezone from R-4 to
staff's recommended G-1.
King County does not have a Public Use zone similar to Renton's P-1 Public Use zone.
In summary, the imposition of G-1 zoning on the Phase II parcel of the Honey Creek
Annexation and Rezone is in keeping with both the City and the County's zoning of the
properties held by the County for the proposed May Creek Park.
I hope this information will be of assistance to you. If you have any questions, or if I
can be of additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at x2552.

March 21, 1988 Renton City Council Minutes Page 85
Responding to complaints regarding increases in assessments, Mr. Houghton
advised that the increases are due to costs of engineering, sales tax, interest
on bonds, bond attorney, bond discount, and contingency factor which adds
roughly 50% to the overall assessment. He indicated that the estimate takes
into account escalation of costs over the next two years during construction
of the LID.
Referring to restrictive covenants running with the land on Parcels #1, #6,
9, and #10, City Attorney Warren advised that owners of those parcels may
not protest the formation of the LID; however, they may protest the amount
of their assessment at the finalization of the LID roll. He clarified that all
protests heard at this point are in fact protests made to the amount of the
assessment, not the formation of the LID. Finally, he cautioned that at the
final LID assessment roll, the City may not assess the property more than it is
benefited by the improvements, and the benefit is normally measured by the
increase in the fair market value of the property due to the improvements.
Responding to further Council inquiry, Public Works Director Houghton
noted that property owners benefit when the City is responsible for the
coordination of engineering, construction, and inspection of the LID, they
would not receive a bill for approximately 2-1/2 years, and they would have
the option of paying the assessment plus interest over a 10-year period. Mr.
Houghton felt that in view of protest percentage, he would recommend
against the LID. Upon inquiry, he confirmed that 86% of the property
owners had initiated the LID.
Upon inquiry regarding the proposed traffic signal at the I-405 ramp at NE
44th Street, Public Works Director Houghton explained that none of the
parcels would be required by itself to construct the $100,000 signal.
However, as parcels develop, owners would be required to share the cost of
the signal, and since no participants exist on the west side of Lake
Washington Boulevard north of NE 44th, costs would be shared by the entire
area. It was also noted that if this LID is terminated, the City would have to
enforce deferrals that are lapsing, improvements would be installed
piecemeal, and the signal would not be installed. Upon inquiry, Mr.
Houghton indicated that funds could be set aside through the NE 44th traffic
mitigation for installation of the signal and widening of the bridge in the
future.
Responding to Council inquiry, Attorney Warren explained that a deferral is
a grant of a privilege and is reviewed yearly by the City, but if necessary,
the Board of Public Works could call a deferral at any time and order the
improvements. He further noted that NE 44th is an area designated by the
City as an traffic mitigation area by the Environmental Review Committee,
and if the Hearing Examiner does not have jurisdiction to impose
participatory conditions upon development, the Environmental Review
Committee certainly does and has in the past.

Upon Council inquiry, Mr. Springer confirmed that KingCountyownsons most
of the subject property, it is proposed for future park use, and either G-1 or
P-1, public, zoning would be appropriate on the site since development
potential is limited. Councilwoman Mathews asked for clarification of the
area on which calculation of density for the Honey Creek PUD was based,
and zoning of King County property. Mr. Springer advised that the Building
