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.

must be submitted electronically to the City Clerk at cityclerk@rentonwa.gov or delivered to City Hall 1st floor Lobby Hub

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.
