Brown -Existing buildings (please do not color buildings which will be demolished or removed) Yellow -Proposed buildings Light Green -Landscaped areas Dark Green -Areas of undisturbed vegetation All Plans and Attachments are subject to Electronic File Standards REVIEW PROCESS: Once a complete land use application package has been accepted for initial review, the Planning Division will post one notice of the pending application at or near the subject site and mail notices to property owners within 300 feet of the project site. The proposal will be routed to other City departments and other jurisdictions or agencies that may have an interest in the application. The reviewers have two (2) weeks to return their comments to the Planning Division. Within approximately two weeks, the Planning Division will prepare a report regarding the proposal's compliance with applicable codes and the City's review criteria. The application will then be presented to the City's Environmental Review Committee. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC) is comprised of the Administrator of Public Works, the Administrator of Community and Economic Development, the Administrator of Community Services, and the Fire Chief. The Committee is responsible for determining whether the proposal will result in significant adverse environmental impacts. To do this, the committee will consider such issues as environmental health hazards, wetlands, groundwater, energy and natural resources and will then issue its decision (Environmental Threshold Determination). The Environmental Review Committee will either issue a: • Determination of Non -Significance (DNS) -Make a determination the proposal will have no significant negative environmental impacts; or Mitigated Determination of Non -Significance (DNS-M)-Make a determination the proposal, if modified, would have no significant negative environmental impacts; or Determination of Significance (DS)-Make a determination the proposal will have significant adverse environmental impacts and require the applicant to submit an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared by a qualified consultant. Once the Environmental Review Committee has issued its Environmental Threshold Determination (provided an EIS is not required), a public notice of the Determination is printed in the Renton Reporter and notice(s) are posted at or near the site. A 14-day appeal period commences following the 15 H:\CED\Data\Forms-Templates\Self-Help Handouts\Planning\ppud.doc Rev: 02/2017 publication date. At the discretion of the City, a separate and additional 15-day comment period may be added prior to the 14-day appeal period. After the fourteen (14) day appeal period has ended, the project can be scheduled for public hearing before the City Hearing Examiner, provided no appeals have been filed. A notice of the hearing will be published at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing, the project site will again be posted, and parties of record will receive notices via mail. Planning Division staff will issue a report to the Hearing Examiner seven (7) days prior to the hearing. This report will be mailed to the applicant or designated representative. Applicants are strongly encouraged to attend the public hearing for their proposal. City staff will first make a presentation to the Hearing Examiner about the proposal. Then the applicant and any citizens in support of the proposal will give testimony. When giving testimony, names and addresses must be stated for the record. Following this, individuals with neutral or opposing comments will give their testimony to the Hearing Examiner. City staff or the applicant will address additional questions raised throughout the hearing. The Hearing Examiner will review the Preliminary Planned Urban Development application and make a decision no later than fourteen (14) days following the public hearing. The Examiner will determine whether or not appropriate provisions are made for public health, safety and general welfare, open spaces, drainage, streets, alleys, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks, playgrounds, and sites for schools and school grounds. The Examiner will also consider all other relevant facts in order to determine whether the public interest will be served by the PUD and/or dedication. The Examiner's action to approve a preliminary PUD shall include an accurate description of the boundaries, land uses, number of units, description of phases (if any), and effective date of approval and expiration. APPEAL AND RECONSIDERATION PROCESS FOR DECISIONS: Any person, with standing, including the applicant, aggrieved by the Hearing Examiner's action, may make a written application for reconsideration to the Hearing Examiner within 14 days of the date of the decision. After review of the reconsideration request, the Hearing Examiner may take whatever action is deemed proper. The Hearing Examiner's written decision on the reconsideration request will be mailed to all parties of record within 10 days from the date the request was filed. If any party with standing is still not satisfied after a reconsideration decision has been issued, an appeal may be submitted within 14 days to the City Council. An appeal may be filed to the City Council without first requesting reconsideration by the Hearing Examiner; however, it must be filed within 14 days of the date the original decision was issued. After the Council's decision is issued there will be a 21-day appeal period, during which time an appeal may be filed with Superior Court. See RMC 4-5-1.10 for further information on the appeal process and time frames. BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION PERMIT ISSUANCE AND INSTALLATION OF IMPROVEMENTS: In the City of Renton, a Building Permit must be obtained to build buildings and structures. A Construction 16 H:\CED\Data\Forms-Templates\Self-Help Handouts\Planning\ppud.doc Rev: 02/2017 Permit must be obtained to install utility lines, transportation improvements and undertake work in City right-of-ways. Building and Construction Permits are separate permits. The approval of the preliminary plan constitutes the City's acceptance of the general project, including density, intensity, arrangement and design. Approval authorizes the applicant or subsequent owner to apply for final plan approval of the PUD or phase(s) thereof. Preliminary plan approval does not authorize any building permits or any site work except that is required for surveying and engineering of the final plan or that required by the City for improvements that are necessary for a particular phase of the PUD for which final plan approval has been granted. An approved preliminary plan binds the future PUD site and all subsequent owners to the uses, densities, and standards of the preliminary plan until such time as a final plan is approved for the entire site or the preliminary plan is abandoned or expires subject to the provisions of RMC 4-9-150. DEFERRAL OF IMPROVEMENTS: If a developer wishes to defer certain on -site or off -site improvements (i.e. landscaping, curbs and sidewalks), written application with full and complete engineering drawings must be submitted to the Development Engineering Section. The application should explain the reasons why such delay is necessary. If approval is granted, security in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit, set -aside fund, assignment of funds, or certified check shall be furnished to the City in an amount equal to a minimum of 150% of the estimated cost of the required improvements. EXPIRATION AND EXTENSIONS: Preliminary Approval of Planned Urban Development not associated with a Subdivision: The developer shall, within two (2) years of the effective date of action by the Hearing Examiner to approve the preliminary plan, submit to the Department of Community and Economic Development a final development plan showing the ultimate design and specific details of the proposed planned urban development or the final phase or phases thereof. Upon application, the Hearing Examiner may grant an extension of the approved preliminary plan for a maximum of twelve (12) months. Application for such extension shall be made at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of preliminary plan approval. Only one such extension may be granted for a planned urban development. Expiration of Preliminary Plan Approval with Concurrent Preliminary Subdivision: If a final development plan is not filed within five (5) years of the effective date of action by the Hearing Examiner or within the extended time period, if any, the planned urban development preliminary plan shall be deemed to have expired or been abandoned. Once a planned urban development preliminary plat has been deemed to have expired or been abandoned, a new application is required to proceed, and the development standards existing at the time of the new application shall apply. Expiration of Final Plan Approval: The developer shall prepare and submit building permit applications which are accepted as substantially complete to Community and Economic Development within six (6) months of the effective date of approval. The developer shall complete the approved planned urban development or any phase thereof included in the approved final plan within two (2) years from the date of the decision to approve the final plan by the Hearing Examiner, unless the Hearing Examiner designates a shorter time. Failure to complete the planned urban development, or any phase thereof, 17 H:\CED\Data\Forms-Templates\Self-Help Handouts\Planning\ppud.doc Rev: 02/2017 within this time limit will require the submittal of a new preliminary and final plan application in order to continue construction of the planned urban development. Failure to submit a new application or to complete the planned urban development once construction has begun shall constitute abandonment of the planned urban development subject to subsection K of RMC 4-9-150. Expiration of any building permit issued for a planned urban development shall be governed by the provisions of the applicable Building Code. Construction of any portion of the planned urban development requires a current approved planned urban development and a current building permit. Approval of a final plan for any phase of the approved preliminary plan shall constitute an extension for two (2) years of the remainder of the preliminary plan from the effective date of Hearing Examiner action on the preliminary plan. MERGER OF APPLICATIONS OR REVIEW STAGES: The applicant may request that review and decision on the preliminary plan and final plan be merged in one decision. The merged decision shall follow the procedural steps required of a preliminary plan. However, the applicant shall submit all plans and information in the detail required for a final plan and shall comply with all other requirements and standards for a final plan. A preliminary planned urban development may be considered simultaneously with any other land use permit required for a proposal, including but not limited to: preliminary plats, short plats, binding site plans, critical area modifications or variances, shoreline substantial developments permits, shoreline variances, shoreline conditional use permits, grading regulation modifications or variances, or other applications. Where merged, the review criteria for all of the applications shall be considered simultaneously with the planned urban development criteria in subsection C of RMC 4-9-150. Where there are conflicts with review criteria, the criteria of subsection C shall govern. Where merged, all permits shall be considered simultaneously as part of the planned urban development. The review authority shall be determined consistent with RMC 4-8-08OC2, Review Authority for Multiple Permit Applications. 18 H:\CED\Data\Forms-Templates\Self-Help Handouts\Planning\ppud.doc Rev: 02/2017
