The utility crossing includes the connection of future stormwater and sewer infrastructure in the proposed subdivision with the existing utilities in the Puget Dr SE right-of-way (ROW). In addition, staff also requests the applicant submit a conceptual utilities plan identifying at least one alternative connection for the stormwater and sewer utilizes in the event no connection to Puget Dr SE can be established across the adjacent site.” Response: The applicant is in active and on-going negotiations with the property owner (city of Renton) and others to come to an agreement about reasonable compensation for the proposed utility crossing. The applicant (Ichijo USA Co., Ltd.) and property owner (Church) have held meetings with city staff and others. We hoped to have resolution quickly, but do not have a specific known date; therefore, we request a 90-day extension until June 21, 2024 to provide the documentation requested above.
