Project Name: Burnett Ave S and Williams Ave S Storm System Improvement
Applicant: Troy Solly, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton WA 98057
Project Location: Burnett Ave S to Williams Ave S, and S 2nd Street to the Cedar River. S Tobin St from Burnett

Project Description: The City of Renton is requesting Environmental (SEPA) Review and a Shoreline Exemption

water quality facilities within the existing public right-of-way on Burnett Ave S and Williams Ave S between 2nd St S and
the Cedar River and S Tobin St between Burnett Ave S and Williams Ave S. The proposed, larger storm water pipes would
help to minimize flooding within the project area. The proposed project would include removal and in-kind restoration of
asphalt surfacing, concrete sidewalks, grass and other surface features as necessary for the installation of the storm water
improvements. A portion of the project site would be located within 200 feet of the Cedar River, a Shoreline of the State.

is mapped within a seismic hazard area and wellhead protection area, zone 1.

Department of Community & Economic Development
Date of Decision: April 24, 2023
Mitigation Measures:
1. If any petroleum or solvent impacted soils and/or groundwater are encountered during project construction,
the impacted materials shall be disposed of appropriately and any employees shall be protected from
exposure.
The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee has determined that probable significant environmental impacts
from the proposed project can be mitigated. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW
43.21C.030(2)(c). Conditions were imposed as mitigation measures by the Environmental Review Committee under their
authority of Section 4-9-070D Renton Municipal Code. These conditions are necessary to mitigate environmental impacts
identified during the environmental review process. Because other agencies of jurisdiction may be involved, the lead
agency will not act on this proposal for fourteen (14) days.
Appeals of the environmental determination must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m. on May 8, 2023. Appeals
must be submitted electronically to the City Clerk at cityclerk@rentonwa.gov or delivered to City Hall 1st floor Lobby Hub
Monday through Friday. The appeal fee, normally due at the time an appeal is submitted, will be collected at a future date
if your appeal is submitted electronically. The appeal submitted in person may be paid on the first floor in our Finance
Department. Appeals to the Hearing Examiner are governed by RMC 4-8-110 and additional information regarding the
appeal process may be obtained from the City Clerk’s Office, cityclerk@rentonwa.gov.
