1055 S Grady Way, Renton, WA 98057
PROJECT LOCATION: 130 and 140 Park Ave N (Parcel Nos. 7224000190 and 7224000200)
DATE OF EXPIRATION: December 31, 2025
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant is requesting a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) for the installation of a chain
link security fence with razor wire at the top. The maximum height of the fence to the top of the razor wire
would be eight feet (8') and the fence would be installed around the perimeter of 140 Park Ave N (Exhibit 2).
The fence would be located within the front yard setback along the property line and would be in place for
approximately two (2) years, until December 31, 2025. The proposed temporary fencing would be in place to
facilitate the removal of the existing single-family residence and allow for the future expansion of the Parks
Department maintenance shop and yard onto the project site. The project site is located within the Commercial
Arterial (CA) zone. Fences located within the front yard setback are limited to a maximum height of forty-eight
inches (48"). The project site is mapped within a seismic hazard area and a zone 1 wellhead protection area.
Pursuant to RMC 4-9-240J, the Administrator may approve, deny, modify, or condition an application for a
temporary use permit, based on consideration of the following factors:
1. The temporary use will not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, nor
injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the temporary use; and
2. Adequate parking facilities and vehicle ingress and egress are provided to serve the temporary use
and any existing uses on the site; and
3. Hours of operation of the temporary use are specified, and would not adversely impact surrounding
uses; and
4. The temporary use will not cause nuisance factors such as noise, light, or glare which adversely
impact surrounding uses; and

5. If applicable, the applicant has obtained the required right-of-way use permit.
Staff Comment: Based on the temporary nature of the fencing, staff determined that the temporary use will not
be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, nor injurious to property or improvements in
the vicinity. No reduction to parking or change to ingress/egress would occur as a result of the temporary fencing
installation and the fencing is not anticipated to cause nuisance factors such as noise, light, or glare. No right-
of-way use permit is required as the temporary fencing would be located on private property.
The Temporary Use Permit is hereby Approved with Conditions* and subject to the following conditions::
*CONDITION OF APPROVAL:
1. The security fencing shall be removed on or before December 31, 2025.
