DATE: April 3, 2023
TO: Alex Morganroth, Senior Planner
FROM: Yong Qi, Development Engineering
SUBJECT: Aero-Plastics Inc Tenant Improvements
833 Houser Way N
LUA23-000059
I have completed the review for the above-referenced proposal located at parcel 0823059193. The following comments
are based on the land use application submittal made to the City of Renton by the applicant.
EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS
The proposed Aero-Plastics Inc Tenant Improvement project will occupy the existing one-story warehouse for the
fabrication and assembly of parts to as well as staging/storage associated with the product. The existing building is
currently used as a storage warehouse and associated office along the Houser Way N to the east.
Water The project is within the City of Renton’s water service area in the Kennydale 308 hydraulic zone. There is an
existing 12” water main within Houser Way N to the east of the existing building (Record Dwg: W-020302). The
approximate static water pressure is 116 psi at a ground elevation of 40’. There is an existing 1-1/2” domestic water
service and meter serving the existing building (MTR-017214).
Sewer There is an existing 8’’ concrete gravity wastewater main located within Houser Way N (Record Dwg: W-020302).
The existing building is connected to the 8’’ sewer main with a 6’’ sewer stub and 6’’ side sewer lines to the east of the
building.
Storm There is a 15’’ public stormwater main and associated catch basins within the Houser Way N to the northeast of
the project site (Record Dwg: R-292902). There is an onsite 6’’ private stormwater system connecting to the public
conveyance system on Houser Way N to the north.
Streets The proposed development fronts Houser Way N along the east property line. The Houser Way N is classified as
a Commercial-Mixed Use & Industrial Access Street with an existing right-of-way (ROW) width of approximately 60 feet.
Houser Way N existing street section consists of a pavement width of approximately 38’, 6’ wide sidewalk, and 5’ wide
planter.
CODE REQUIREMENTS
WATER COMMENTS
1. There is an existing 1-1/2” domestic water service and meter serving the existing building (MTR-017214). Per
Washington State Drinking Water Regulations (WAC 246-290-490) the City of Renton requires premise isolation
on their water service line. This is to prevent any potential cross connection hazards. The applicant shall install a
Reduced Pressure Backflow Assembly (RPBA) downstream of the existing water meter. The RPBA shall be
located inside an above ground and heated enclosure (i.e., “hot box”) per City of Renton standard plan number

350.2 or it can be installed inside the building at a location pre-approved by the water utility. A plumbing permit
is required for this work, and it must be obtained before the city issuance of the building permit.
a. A 2’’ RPBA was installed on 1/4/2023 by O’Neill Plumbing Co. under Plumbing permit P22006469, which
is acceptable.
2. There is an existing 8” fire water service serving the existing building. The existing backflow prevention device
(i.e., single check valve) for the fire sprinkler system does not meet current standards as required by the
Washington State Drinking Water Regulations. It must be replaced with a new Double Check Detector Assembly
(DCDA) per City of Renton standard plan number 360.2 in the existing outside in-ground vault located on the
East side of the building. It may also be installed inside the building at a location that is pre-approved by the
water utility.
a. A new DCDA for the existing interior fire sprinkler system assembly was installed on 1/9/2023 by
Reliance Fire Protection under Plumbing permit P23000254, which is acceptable.
3. The development might be subject to applicable water system development charges (SDC) and meter installation
fees based on the size of the water meters. Current fees can be found in the 2023 Development Fees Document
on the City’s website. Fees will be charged based on the rate at the time of Civil Construction Permit issuance.
a. No SDC fee is needed since no new water meter or upsized water meter will be installed.
SEWER COMMENTS
1. King County imposes limits on certain pollutants and prohibits discharge of wastes that adversely affect the
operations of wastewater treatment works and collection system. Therefore, the applicant shall contact King
County to obtain an industrial discharge permit if applicable.
a. The applicant needs to contact King County for a possible industrial discharge permit by filling and
submitting an Industrial Waste Program Survey from King County Website below:
https://kingcounty.gov/services/environment/wastewater/industrial-
waste/library/forms/ApprovalForms.aspx.
b. King County Industrial Waste Program will make a permitting decision based on the survey form filled.
2. Since the existing sewer service will be reused, no sewer system development charges are applicable. If the
domestic water meter size is required to be upsized or additional meters are required as a result of the project,
applicable SDC fees would be required. Credit would be provided for the existing meter size.
a. No SDC fee will be collected since no new water meter is installed and the existing sewer service will be
reused.
SURFACE WATER COMMENTS
1. A drainage report complying with the 2022 Renton Surface Water Design Manual (2022 RSWDM) will be required
if construction is proposed exterior to the existing building. Based on the City’s flow control map, the site falls
within the City’s Peak Rate Flow Control Standard (Matching Existing Conditions). The site falls within the East
Lake Washington-Renton Drainage Basin and Johns Creek sub basin. Refer to Figure 1.1.2.A – Flow chart to
determine the type of drainage review required in the RSWM.
a. No drainage review will be required since there is no construction proposed exterior to the existing
building.
TRANSPORTATION COMMENTS
1. An accessible route of travel meeting American’s With Disabilities Act’s requirements (ADA) from the public right
of way to the working facilities is required and will be reviewed in conjunction with the building permit submittal.
a. The existing onsite ADA parking and landings will be further reviewed during building permit review.
2. Since this project is proposing an interior remodel and no new construction or additions valued at over $175,000,
no street frontage improvements or right of way dedication are required.
GENERAL COMMENTS
1. Fees quoted in this document reflect the fees applicable in the year 2023 only and will be assessed based on the
