SEWER COMMENTS:
1. Sewer service is provided by Coal Creek Water and Sewer District.
2. Applicant shall coordinate with Coal Creek for permitting requirements.
STORM DRAINAGE COMMENTS:
1. Drainage plans and a drainage report complying with the adopted 2022 Renton Surface Water
Design Manual is required. Refer to Figure 1.1.2.A – Flow Chart of the 2022 Renton Surface
Water Design Manual (RSWDM) to determine what type of drainage review is required for this
site. Based on the City’s flow control map, this site falls within Flow Control Duration Standard
area (matching Forested site conditions). The project site is located in the May Creek Basin and
sub basin.
a. A drainage report shall be submitted per the 2022 RSWDM – Targeted Drainage
Review. At the minimum, the report will need to show how Core Requirement #5
Construction Stormwater Pollution and #7 Financial Guarantees and Liabilities are
met for performing work in the vicinity of Critical Area.
2. A geotechnical report for the site is required and shall be submitted with the land use
application. Information concerning the soils, geology, drainage patterns, vegetation present,
water table and soil permeability, with recommendations of appropriate on-site BMP options
with typical designs for the site from the geotechnical engineer, shall be submitted with the
application. The geotechnical report should include an on-site infiltration test to clearly show if
the site is suitable or unsuitable for infiltration.
a. A geotechnical report prepared by The Concept Group dated January 18th, 2023, was
submitted by the Applicant with the Land Use Application.
b. The geotechnical report indicates the stairway, trail and patio can remain in place to
prevent disturbance to slope and north shoreline of May Creek. This is not acceptable.
Applicant shall remove all unpermitted improvements and follow mitigation plan
prepared by Confluence Environmental Company to prevent further disturbance to
critical area. A clear and grade permit shall be required.
TRANSPORTATION/STREET COMMENTS:
1. The proposed project fronts SE May Valley Rd to the North with existing right of way (ROW)
width of approximately 63.5 feet. To meet the City’s complete street standards for collector
arterial streets, a minimum ROW width of 83 feet is required. Per RMC 4-6-060 half of street
improvements as taken from the ROW centerline shall be required and include a 30-foot paved
road (15 feet each side), a 8-foot parking lane, a 0.5 foot curb, an 8 foot planting strip, 8 foot
sidewalk, and 2’ clear space behind sidewalk. Dedication of approximately 8 feet will be
required.
a. Per RMC 4-6-060 section C – applicability, this requirement shall be enforced when a
building permit, short plat or subdivision is proposed. This is a remediation project to
restore the site to its original condition and remove all unpermitted addition; only a
clear and grade permit is required. therefore, frontage improvements and dedication
are not required.
