Details of the proposed demolition are as follows: Sunset Terrace,WA011000001-Phase II DOFA:02/28/1960 Bedroom Size 1-BR 2-BR 3-BR 4+BR Total Existing Units 20 36 36 8 100 Proposed Units 20 28 32 4 84 Number of Dwelling Buildings Existing 26 Number of Dwelling Buildings Proposed 22 Number of Non-Dwelling without PIC Number Existing 3 Number of Non-Dwelling without PIC Number Proposed 1 Number of(Dwelling and Non-Dwelling)ACC Units in 238 PHA's Total Housins Inventory for All Developments Address of Non-Dwelling Building 970 Harrington NE,Renton,WA 98056 History of the Development The RHA has received the following Inventory Removal approval at the development: PIC Removal Type Number of Number of Application Units Acres Date of Approval Approved Approved DDA0004431 Disposition—Phase I I6 0.91 February 1,2012 Reason for Action (Justification) -Disposition The RHA proposed the disposition based on 24 CFR § 970.17, which requires the PHA to certify that the retention of the property is not in the best interests of the residents or the PHA because the PHA has otherwise determined the disposition to be appropriate for reasons that are consistent with the goals of the PHA and the PHA Plan and that are otherwise consistent with the Act. The RHA proposes disposition of 1 non-dwelling building, 22 dwelling buildings containing 84 units and 6.4 acres of underlying land at Sunset Terrace,WA011000001 to: (1) Colpitts Development Co., LLC via a negotiated sale at fair market value(FMV)for$2,270,000, a total of 2.5 acres; (2) the City of Renton via negotiated sale (transfer/exchange property) at FMV for$2,640,000, a total of 3.5 acres; and(3) the 0.4 acres of land retained by the RHA, valued at$600,000, will be for the 40 new subsidized low-income replacement housing units. The building name,in which the 40 units will be housed, is referred by the RHA as`Building 5". The disposition will enable a multi-phased mixed finance, mixed-income development being planned for the surrounding area. The current phase will result in the construction of 296 3 market-rate units by Colpitts Development Co., LLC,the City of Renton will construction of a new park and a regional storm-water facility which will enhance the neighborhood and provide a community amenity to the residents of the Sunset Terrace. The RHA will build some of the replacement units across from the new public park and on the land currently occupied by the City of Renton's park. The City owned park sits one block north of Sunset Terrace and is now zoned to accommodate up to 15 town-homes (Sunset Court Park), of which the RHA will build some other replacement housing units. Also, the RHA will construct 40 new affordable low-income housing units and some additional affordable units. The development will be financed with low- income housing tax credits (LIHTC) and transferred to a new ownership partnership, of which the RHA will be the general partner. We concur with the RHA's determination that the disposition is in the best interests of the residents or the PHA because enables the construction of new affordable low-income housing and replacement units. Appraisal The RHA submitted an appraisal with the application. The Valbridge Property Advisors, an independent appraiser, determined the Fair Market Value (FMV) for the overall site to be $5,244,000, as of March 5, 2014. The appraised value of the 0.4 acres of land, to be acquired by the RHA is $600,000. Method of Sale Of the 6.4 acres of underlying land, the RHA proposed 2.5 acres to Colpitts Development Co. via public bid at FMV or higher, 3.5 acres to the City of Renton via negotiated sale at FMV (transfer with property exchange); and 0.4 acres retained by the RHA. Use of Proceeds According to the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, there is no outstanding debt on Sunset Terrace, WA011000001. The RHA will realize net proceeds from this disposition. In the application, the RHA proposes to allocate a portion of the 55,244,000 proceeds to support the development and construction of no fewer than 84 units that will used exclusively as project- based or tenant-based Section 8 units and marketed to, reserved for, and occupied solely by eligible residents under the Section 8 program for a period not less than 30years. Any net proceeds not used of this purpose shall be eligible for recapture by RHA. If any proceeds are repaid to or recaptured by RHA, these proceeds will be federalized assets subject to all federal requirements. In addition, the RHA will use the proceeds for the development and/or acquisition of new ACC units; and/or leveraging for the purpose of developing mixed-finance housing that will include ACC units under 24 CFR 905 Subpart F. We have determined that use of proceeds meets the requirements of the statute. Also,the approval requires that a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants &Lien (or other acceptable documentation) be executed and recorded against the property on which the Section 8 units are developed that ensures that the proceeds will be used for 30 years according to the use approved in this letter, or the proceeds must be repaid to the RHA (or its successors and/or assigns). 4 Relocation When the application was developed and transmitted to the Department,75 of the 84 units proposed for disposition were occupied. The RHA has submitted a certification regarding relocation as required by 24 CFR § 970.21(e) (f). The RHA estimated the relocation cost for the remaining residents to be $236,250, which includes moving expenses and counseling/advisory services. The funds for relocation are allocated under FY 2012 CFFP. The housing resources offered will be other public housing and housing choice vouchers. Resident Consultation 1. Project Specific Resident Organization: None 2. PHA-wide Resident Organization: None 3. Resident Advisory Board (RAB) in accordance with 24 CFR § 903.13: None 24 CFR § 970.9 requires that an application for disposition be developed in consultation with the tenants of the project involved, any tenant organization at the project involved and any PHA-wide organizations that will be affected by the activity. The RHA met with the residents on January 4, 2011,May 31,2011, February 26, 2013 and June 23, 2013. The RHA has included sign-in sheets from the meetings in its application package. The RHA has tried to form a RAB, a letter dated August 26, 2011, was sent to residents to help the RHA create a RAB,but no residents were interested. In addition, at the meeting held June 23,2013, the RHA emphasized the right and the prerogative of the residents to form a resident group and an opportunity to purchase the remaining Sunset Terrace development and to a form a resident group. There was no interest by the residents in the purchase of Sunset Terrace or forming a resident group. The RHA included the agendas and sign-in sheets for the meetings in it application package. 24 CFR § 970.9(a) requires submission of any written comments, and the HA's evaluation of the written comments with the application package. The RHA did receive written comments from the residents concerning relocation. The RHA assured the residents their concerns will be addressed to the best of the RHA's ability. Offer for Sale to the Resident Organization 24 CFR § 970.9(b) (1) of the regulation requires that a public housing agency offer the opportunity to purchase the property proposed for disposition to any eligible resident organization,eligible resident management corporation as defined in 24 CFR Part 964, or to a nonprofit organization acting on behalf of the residents, if the resident entity has expressed an interest in purchasing the property for continued use as low-income housing. Since the RHA is not aware of any resident entity that has expressed an interest in purchasing the property, we determined that the RHA has complied with the requirements of 24 CFR § 970.9(b) (1). 5 Mayor/Local Government Consultation As required by 24 CFR § 970.7(a) (14),the application package includes a letter of support from the Honorable Denis Law,Mayor of the City of Renton, dated July 8, 2011. Board Resolution As required by the 24 CFR § 970.7(a) (13), the RHA's Board of Commissioners approved the submission of the application for disposition of the proposed property on January 13, 2014, via Resolution Number 2449-2014. The last resident consultation was on February 26, 2013. The consultation with the local government took place on June 14,2011. Replacement Housing 24 CFR § 970.31 eliminated the requirement for one-for-one replacement of public housing units. Therefore,the RHA is not required to provide for replacement housing, and the Department is under no obligation to fund replacement housing. Other Requirements Please remind the RHA that pursuant to 24 CFR § 970.21(c)(2), if any of the following types of federal financial assistance is used in connection with the disposition of public housing, the project is subject to section 104(d) of the Housing and'Community Development Act of 1974,42 U.S.C. 5304(d) (as amended), including the relocation payment provisions and the anti- displacement provisions, which require that comparable replacement dwellings be provided within the community for the same number of occupants as could have been housed in the occupied and vacant, occupiable low- and moderate-income units converted to another use: • Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) program,42 U.S.C. 5301 et seq. (including loan guarantees under section 108 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974,42 U.S.C. 5308 et seq.); • Urban Development Action Grant(UDAG)program,42 U.S.C. 5318 et seq.; or • HOME program, 42 U.S.C. 12701 et seq. Please contact the HUD Seattle HUB for additional guidance, if applicable. Approval We have reviewed the application and find it to be consistent with Section 18 of the Act, and the implementing regulations,24 CFR Part 970, including requirements related to resident consultation,relocation and opportunity to purchase the property by the resident organization. Based upon our review, and finding that the requirements of 24 CFR Part 970 and Section 18 of the Act have been met, the disposition of 1 non-dwelling building, 22 residential buildings containing 84 units and 6.4 acres of underlying land at Sunset Terrace,WA011000001, as previously identified and described in the application, at the FMV of$5,244,000, or higher, via a negotiated sale, is hereby approved. If the RHA fails to receive the FMV,please inform this 6 office as to the RHA plans. The use of proceeds for development and construction of 84 units, exclusively used as project-based or tenant based Section 8 units,is also approved.

NOTE:On the land continuous to Sunset Terrace and near the existing units,the RHA will develop the balance of its Sunset Terrace replacement housing—plus an approximate 200 additional affordable low-income housing units.RHA will replace each of the 100 Sunset Terrace units(by BR count),and has begun doing so with the construction of einht 4 BR Glennwood Townhomes units on RHA land adjacent to Sunset Terrace,and the 18 family housing units in the Kirkland Avenue Townhomes,0.46 miles to the northeast of Sunset. Notwithstanding this approval,the PHA shall not proceed to enter into any long-term around lease or disposition agreement until all residents have been relocated and until all demolition actions at the development(that were previously approved by HUD) are complete. 7 Operating Subsidy Please be aware that in accordance with 24 CFR § 990.114, the disposition of these units will affect the RHA's operating subsidy eligibility significantly. Please contact your financial analyst at the HUD Seattle for additional guidance about this. The Seattle HUB must insure that the RHA's annual formula characteristics report is updated properly to reflect these changes. Housing Choice Vouchers If you are interested in applying for housing choice vouchers in connection with the units approved for disposition, it will need to submit an application to the Seattle HUB. The RHA should submit its application in response to HUD Notice 2013-12, or HUD's current Notice outlining the application procedures. PIC and Monitoring In accordance with 24 CFR § 970.35 of the regulation, your agency is required to inform the HUD Seattle HUB of the status of the project(i.e., delays, actual disposition or other problems). When the disposition has been achieved,please submit a report to the HUD Seattle HUB confirming the action and certifying compliance with all applicable requirements. Files must be maintained which are sufficient for audit purposes and must be made available upon request. The RHA must enter the"actual"dates of disposition directly into the Inventory Removals sub-module in PIC,for the Seattle HUB approval so that the status of the units in PIC is changed to "removed from inventory." For land, the disposition dates and number of acres should also be recorded by the RHA in the Inventory Removals sub-module. It is the Seattle HUB's responsibility to monitor this activity based on its latest risk assessment. The RHA is responsible for reporting accurate occupancy and building/unit information via communication with the Seattle HUB and through reporting in HUD systems. The Seattle HUB must verify that the actual data is being entered in PIC by the RHA as the actions occur to ensure the Department is not over paying in operating subsidy, and the Capital Fund formula data is correct. Since this action expects to generate net proceeds of$5,244,000, it is the Seattle HUB's responsibility to verify the funds were used as approved, and the RHA's records are adequately documented to support this assertion. The RHA should work with the Seattle HUB to close this program out seamlessly. The HUD Seattle HUB has been informed of this approval. Its staff is available to provide any technical assistance necessary for your agency to proceed with the disposition. 8 As the RHA start the process of implementation, I urge you to continue to maintain an open dialogue with your residents and local officials. If you have to modify your plans,the HUD Seattle HUB stands ready to assist you. Sincerely, Tamara S.

You will still need to register the facility as UIC. Can you confirm that the two gasoline stations across the street do not have the potential to contribute flows to this facility? If they have potential, I'll need to take a closer look at pretreatment for hydrocarbons. Thanks, Bobb From: Hebe Bernardo [mailto:HBernardo(&Rentonwa.aov] Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2014 6:45 AM To: Khan, Heather (ECY) Cc: Nolan, Robert (ECY) Subject: FW: [Sunset Terrace Regional SW Facility] UIC facility Good morning Heather, I think we need clarification on the statement that no untreated runoff can get to the facility, I believe the distinction is no untreated runoff below the design storm event can enter the facility. 1. Runoff equal to or less than the runoff treatment design storm will be treated through bioretention soil prior to discharge through the infiltration gallery (see except below) 2. The treatment capacity of the native soils (vadose zone above groundwater) should provide additional protection. Infiltration rate for our native soils are equal to 1 in/hr(which meets the 2.4 in/hr threshold for providing treatment) and is greater than 5 feet above the groundwater level. I'd need to have our geotech look a little closer but I interpret the treatment capacity to be Medium for a Silty Sand (just over 1:1 ratio of sand to fines) and the pollutant loading Medium (or possibly high, would need to check the ADT for Sunset Blvd.). In either case the requirements either need provide some pre-settling (2-stage drywell) and/or oil trapping (which can be accomplished in a number of structures upstream). Even if solids is required,that is met by the bioretention cells. 3. This concept has not been changed since the pre-design report. Can you please confirm that our assumptions are correct? Thanks and please let me know if you have any questions. 1 Chapter 2 - How UIC Stormwater Wells are Regulatf 2.1 Using a UIC well for stormwater This guickinct docunient applies to LTIC wells that receive storniwater front roads. parking af .and also roof 1-tuloE A TAC' Nvell niay be used to niana.ge stortiivf-ater when polhitzint concentrations that reach gro water are not expected to e%ceed Washingtou State gtround water quality standards(Chapter 200 NVAC), This ou'dance docuni-lit describes conditions and reqnifenients that are ez,'.pecte result in niectin2 these standards.

Attached is a pre-design outline for your reference. 2) "Incorporating the five 12-inch diameter slotted underdrain pipes to encourage uniform infiltration within the gallery will require this facility be registered as an Underground Injection Control well. No untreated flows may enter the UIC facility." Please let us know if you have any questions.

This is important for a couple of reasons. First,there is a real possibility that the developer will be able to re-use the existing sewer(conditioned on lining the existing sewer mains and manholes)as long as the location does not interfere with the ultimate roadway/building alignments. Second, I have a sewer main that runs in the existing Harrington Av NE alignment that is to become the new park that I do not see simply being re-routed. Our original intent was to keep that line in the park and look to eliminate manholes where needed and/or where feasible. Third, I also have a main in the section of Glenwood that is to be re-aligned at where it reconnects at Harrington. This will have to be looked at as to how it will be re-routed. * Figure 2 shows the library connection coming from the a new sewer main in Sunset Ln. The approved plans have the Library connecting to the existing sewer in NE 10th Street. There also does not show where the park will get its sewer service for its buildings requiring service. The existing line in this portion of Sunset Ln. actually run under the proposed Library building at the west end, near Building 9/10 for Colpits. The existing can work if the park connection either happens into NE 10th, or at the west end, where Colpits can shorten the existing sewer to keep it within the roadway. * Once I can see how my existing system fits with this ultimate alignment, I can then better evaluate how to provide the service to the proposed development. I would tend to agree that the information provided represents a potential "worst case" scenario with the inclusion of the information that my existing sewer lines that run through the new park will need to remain and be slightly amended to accommodate the needs of the park. Hope this helps.

The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) supporting both milestones was issued April 1, 2011. The ROD and Planned Action established a range of growth and associated facility and infrastructure investments (e.g. park, library, "green streets," etc.) for the Sunset Area Community Planned Action Study Area, for the neighborhood as a whole and for the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment, a site then fully owned by the Renton Housing Authority (RHA). Since May 2011, efforts have continued including the Demolition and Disposition permit for a Mixed Use Library redevelopment on a portion of the property and a purchase and sale agreement with a private developer. This has been followed by a Demolition and Disposition permit for the balance of the Sunset Terrace property allowing for both market rate and affordable dwellings. RHA has developed plans or has constructed units in the Sunset Area that could serve as replacement units for Sunset Terrace when redeveloped. There would be no net loss of affordable units. The number of total dwellings currently under consideration exceeds the number of dwellings studied in the FEIS and considered in the ROD and Planned Action Ordinance. Further, building heights would be increased beyond City maximums for the applicable zone, which would require a discretionary conditional use permit. Setbacks of buildings from the future SR 900 improvement boundaries are less than for the Preferred Alternative. Last, the City is considering reclassifying some local streets serving the Sunset Area to allow a more efficient roadway cross-section while still facilitating circulation. As a result of these potential changes, the City is preparing a revised Master Plan including a new Conceptual Plan to be developed and approved under the Renton Municipal Code Title IV. This Master Plan would facilitate the preparation of phased detailed Site Plans over time and allow the City to determine consistency with applicable regulations. This will also provide more certainty for members of the public and private developers. The changes to the development proposal to add more units and height and to address street standards also require a NEPA Reevaluation demonstrating that the original conclusions of the FEIS remain valid, pursuant to Section 58.47 of US Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) NEPA regulations. SEPA also provides a process using an Addendum to the prior FEIS where information or analysis does not substantially change prior conclusions about impacts (WAC 197-11-706). The purpose of this document is to provide analysis that meets the requirements of a NEPA Reevaluation and a SEPA Addendum and that demonstrates the FEIS original conclusions are valid. This analysis would also provide the basis for ROD or Planned Action Ordinance amendments, if any. This Reevaluation and Addendum document is structured as follows: 1. Introduction 2. Sunset Area Alternatives 3. Environmental Analysis 4. Conclusions DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 2 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM 2.0 SUNSET AREA ALTERNATIVES 2.1 Study Area The primary study area consists of the original Sunset Terrace Public Housing Boundary (approximately 7.3 parcel acres) plus several sites that are planned (or were constructed) for housing redevelopment either on Master Plan sites or on housing replacement sites or "swap sites" (approximately 6.8 parcel acres). Exhibit 1 shows active Sunset Area Revitalization Projects. Sites A through O and X are a primary focus of this Reevaluation and Addendum; of these, sites D, E, and G through O are included in a Master Plan Application. All sites on Exhibit 1 were evaluated in the Sunset Area Community Planned Action Area shown in Exhibit 2. Additionally all of the Master Plan Sites were either considered in the Potential Sunset Redevelopment Study Area (shaded in purple) or"swap sites" (outlined in red) shown in Exhibit 3.

Source:HIS 2011,BERK 2014 The purpose of identifying two "Selected Sunset Area Alternatives" was to define a range of acceptable growth and designs considering the conceptual nature of the Sunset Terrace redevelopment plans as well as the 20-year time horizon of the broader neighborhood planned action. The Preferred Alternative was similar to Alternative 3 with slightly lower growth and a reconfiguration of park space and road network. The two alternatives were similar in terms of potential beneficial and adverse impacts and required mitigation measures. Since the original FEIS analysis, additional site planning has occurred and some changes in units are proposed (— 90 more units than Alternative 3). See Exhibit 7 for the Master Plan Proposals. The City is also proposing a larger park than was considered under either of the selected alternatives, and accordingly some buildings have increased in height or numbers of units. Some streets are proposed for reclassification to achieve the circulation proposals and "green streets" in the EIS. Setbacks of buildings from the future SR 900 improvement boundaries are less than for the Preferred Alternative. As the analysis in this document shows, no substantive changes in conclusions or required mitigation are needed as a result of the revised alternative, termed "Reevaluation Alternative".

Other code interpretations are needed for clarity, such as parking for civic uses (Site M, Park) or to allow the potential for joint parking arrangements (Sites H and 1). Some of these variations require additional permits while others require modification through site plan review. Each topic is addressed below. See also Section 2.5 regarding building coverage. Building Height The FEIS Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3 assumed that the heights in the zoning districts would be the maximum height of future development. In three locations, the Reevaluation Alternative would exceed the maximum height of the zone (see Exhibit 8): • Site H Sunset Terrace Dev. Building A, Property 9: A mixed use building is proposed at 68 feet instead of 60 feet allowed for buildings with ground floor commercial. • Site I Sunset Terrace Dev. Building B, Property 7/8: A multifamily residential building is proposed at 62 feet instead of 50 feet allowed for single use development. • Site J Sunset Terrace Dev. Building C, Property 6/7: A multifamily residential building is proposed at 58 feet instead of 50 feet allowed for single use development. The increases in height are proposed to accommodate the larger park site, which has increased beyond the range of alternatives in the FEIS; therefore in exchange for the larger open space the buildings have increased in height to accommodate additional dwelling units. The increased height would require approval of a conditional use permit (RMC 4-9-030 Conditional Use Permits), addressed in the Master Plan Application, under separate cover. The potential aesthetic effects are addressed in the reevaluation Section 3.0. Exhibit 8.

Sources:Veer,Schemata,Colpitts,City of Renton,Renton Housing Authority,BERK 2014 Site E, Sunset Park West Townhomes proposes a density of 18.2 units. The R-14 zone allows a maximum of 18 units per net acre subject to criteria such as providing affordable housing plus site amenities or well-designed parking. The density of 18.2 units per acre is slightly above 18 units per acre; however the definition of net density in RMC Chapter 4-11 allows the City to round down when fractional density numbers are less than 0.5. Parkin, In total across all Master Plan sites, 750 parking stalls are proposed. See Attachment A. On Site H if the number of units is slightly increased per Exhibit 6 above, about 7 more stalls would be needed on that block; however there is more than needed parking on Site I. A Joint Parking Agreement could be developed prior to future site plan approval addressing any shared parking arrangements, provided parking is within 750 feet of the intended site (4-4-080(E)(3)). Next, RMC4-4-080(F)(10) does not specify a parking standard for parks, and a Director determination would be needed; as a neighborhood park primarily serving adjacent development, non-motorized travel would be the primary mode of arriving at the park. Both the park and the regional storm water facility require maintenance access and load/unload areas which have been identified and located through the master planning process. [Haven't seen the load/unload areas.] Regarding the library, there appears to be a mis-print in the code requiring 40 stalls per 1,000 square feet of cultural space, but the likely required rate was intended to be 4 per 1,000 square feet; this topic was addressed in the Site Plan Review approval previously issued for the library site. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 11 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM Onsite Open Spacf In the CV zone, common open space is required to be provided at a rate of fifty(50) square feet per unit. The City may allow substitutions in light of the public park provided adjacent to the properties. See RMC 4-1-240 for Common Open Space Substitutions. This would likely require a Fee in Lieu of Common Open Space. This would be addressed in future Site Plan Review applications. Private open space is required to be provided for each dwelling unit. (Confirm if size is 60 square feet.) A preponderance of the future dwelling units will have private open space such as in the form of decks. However, at the time of Site Plan Review, the Director may approve modifications such as a percentage of units that may have alternative private open space standards if meeting the overall intent of design standards and other criteria at 4-3-100(F) and RMC 4-9-250(D). Setbacks The CV zone setback requires a minimum 10 foot setback which may be reduced to 0 feet as part of the site plan development review process, provided blank walls are not located within the reduced setback. The conceptual Master Plan reflects the future boundary of SR 900 once improvements are made per the plans in the 2011 FEIS. With the difficult property configuration along SR 900 (a "U"dip) and the Sunset Lane to the north, the depth of the lots is constrained particularly at Site H. Therefore, as part of this Master Plan approval, the City will allow setbacks of 0 feet matched to the future right of way line needed to accommodate SR 900 improvements. (Address if 0 feet will also be the setback to Sunset Lane NE.j 2.4 Facility and Infrastructure Proposals Sunset Park and Regional Stormwater Facility With the need to address the future boundary of SR 900 and the desire to meet recreational needs of the future residents, the Sunset Park space was increased from the Preferred Alternative range of 2.1- 2.65 acres (FEIS Chapter 2 and Appendix C) to 2.99 acres. The future 3.0 acre (approximate) Sunset Neighborhood Park in the current Master Plan Application is in a public master planning phase and is the subject of ongoing public meetings. A regional stormwater facility will be co-located within the future park site, (the location of which has been determined through soils analysis), and is also included as part of the master planning process (Preferred Concept-Storm Water Facility). Potential recreation amenities to be included will be consistent with the Design Guidelines for Neighborhood Parks as adopted in the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan (2012). A perimeter park sidewalk (on park property) will not be included; curbs will be provided. Specific design details for either the Sunset Neighborhood Park or the Regional Stormwater Facility will be determined during the design phase. The anticipated final park conceptual master plan adoption date is December 2014. See parking section above regarding load and unload spaces. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 12 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM Street Reclassifications The City is considering street reclassifications and two new street sections for roads that have 60-foot rights of way presently: Green Collector and Neighborhood Collector. See the preliminary Exhibit 10. Based on a review by CH2MHill, the 60 foot right of way is consistent with the "Green Connections" cross section in the Sunset Area Surface Water Master Plan. However, the Green Connections can only be implemented in some locations and therefore a 60 foot cross-section for a Neighborhood Collector is also proposed.

Additionally, consistent with the requirements of Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), the proposal has been evaluated with respect to its potential effects on species listed or proposed for listing under the ESA. A biological assessment was prepared and submitted to the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in December 2010 for its concurrence with a finding that the proposal may affect, and is not likely to adversely affect, anadromous fish protected under the ESA, and would have no effect on any ESA-protected species under U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service jurisdiction. The City and NMFS corresponded in January, February, and April 2011 on NMFS questions. The City received a letter of concurrence in May 2011.

An assumption for the Park/Regional Stormwater area (Site L and M) is that 30% of the 2.99 acre area would be impervious; however the property is in the design phase and this is speculative. In comparison to Alternative 3, the preliminary analysis indicates that total acres within the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea is slightly lower like due to adjustments in rights of way needs, DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 15 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM and the total impervious area is a little higher due to the intensity of building footprints on sites H, I, J and K. However, there is less pollutant generating impervious surfaces (PGIS) as there appears to be less surface parking in the Master Plan than in Alternative 3. Exhibit 13.

Assumes that 30%of the 2.99 acre park site would be impervious.We are investigating if we have accurately included NE 10`h Right of Way,which may bump up PGIS,but not likely above Alternative 3. It is recommended that the City affirm the range of impervious area in the FEIS selected alternatives (Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3) for the Master Plan and related sites such as through a Master Plan condition. The FEIS Alternatives and the above analysis assume that 40% of the impervious area in the study area would be mitigated with flow control BMPs. Therefore more aggressive measures similar to those identified in the FEIS and Drainage Plan would be needed to maintain the range of impervious area in the FEIS selected alternatives. Since the preliminary results for the Master Plan and Edmonds-Glennwood sites are closer to Alternative 3, there are several options that could be incorporated into the detailed site plans for the subject Master Plan properties and/or into related public sites (e.g. RHA's Edmonds Apartments Site C, and RHA replacement site Sunset Court Site F, or future surplused library Site X): • Master Plan Sites (D, E, G, H, I,J, K, L, M, N, and O): Additional best management practices (BMPS) include more permeable sidewalks and other practices such as bioretention for the roadway areas and some raingardens or other practices for the buildings. • Other Public Sites (RHA's Edmonds Apartments Site C, and RHA replacement site Sunset Court Site F, or future surplused library Site X): Increase the assumed flow control and water quality treatment requirements for the replacement sites to offset changed proposals in the Master Plan area. The regional stormwater facility in Sunset Park will address flow control for SR 900 roadway water quality treatment. Onsite developments would provide for their own water quality treatment. The regional facility in the Park is designed for SR 900 and is not designed to receive any stormwater from the Master Plan area, and per the grant funding, this site cannot be used for mitigation. Lot Coverage analysis The Renton Zoning Code includes standards for building cover in the CV and R-14 zones and maximum impervious surface levels in the R-14 zone. All sites meet lot coverage standards, except for Sites H/K, I, and J individually. See Exhibit 14. However, collectively, with the Park site the CV zone sites do meet the CV zone requirements, and is consistent with the overall Master Plan approach to the sites.

Master Plan and Other Discretionary Applications Most immediately, the City is intending to consider a Master Plan per RMC 4-9-200. For each Master Plan site, a number of current and future permits are also anticipated. See Exhibit 15. Additionally, in association with the Master Plan approval, a conditional use permit to exceed height standards consistent with RMC 4-9-030 is proposed. Administrative allowances for 0 foot front yard setbacks are under consideration. Interpretations of cumulative density and lot coverage in light of the park area, and the Director's determination regarding parking for the Sunset Park site are also being addressed in association with the Master Plan. The Reevaluation and Addendum may lead to revisions of the ROD and Planned Action Ordinance. [Confirm following staff review of reevaluation and utilities analysis.] Other permits and approvals would follow such as lot line adjustments, right of way dedications and easements, phased / detailed site plans and associated design modifications where appropriate. Last, building and construction permits would be sought. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 17 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM Exhibit 15.

It concludes that revised Master Plan would not change impacts significantly from those identified in the FEIS. Land Use The Land Use analysis conclusions in the HIS indicated the Sunset Area subarea would advance the City's Center Village (CV) concept in the Comprehensive Plan and zoning code. It would serve as an incentive for other redevelopment opportunities near the study area. Anticipated growth would help the City meet its 2031 housing and employment targets. These conclusions are still valid for the Reevaluation Alternative which promotes a mixed use redevelopment with open space and civic amenities. Selected Sunset Area Alternatives anticipated a range of 266-479 more dwelling units than existing conditions in a mixed-use development that integrates commercial and civic spaces. The Reevaluation Alternative would provide a maximum of 554 net units in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment subarea; a, greater number of units would be located in the immediate study area, but net growth in the overall Sunset Area neighborhood would not change from that evaluated in the FEIS. The Reevaluation Alternative would continue to implement the overall vision for the Sunset Area neighborhood in City DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 19 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM plans and codes. Where there are differences between the Revaluation Alternative and specifics of the Renton Municipal Code, application for modifications or conditional uses would be made and evaluation based on the City's adopted criteria, which promote compliance with the intent of standards, would occur. Therefore, no changes in overall HIS conclusions are anticipated. HIS mitigation measures would still be applicable and appear well implemented by the Reevaluation alternative since it provides a "protected" large open space, the most intensive development along SR 900, and less intense development on the north side of the loop road: The City shall require construction plans to: • Locate the majority of the most intensive non-residential development along or near NE Sunset Boulevard, where possible. • Implement proposed open space and landscape features to offset the proposed intensification of land uses on the site. • Provide new opportunities for public open space area. • As part of site design, emphasize transitions in density, with less intense densities where abutting lower-intensity zones. (ROD Attachment C, Table 16) The City's site plan review and construction review processes are in place to coordinate dedications and easements: The City and RHA should coordinate on future Sunset Terrace redevelopment and Planned Action Study Area streetscape improvements to ensure that property acquisition that affects buildings is minimized. (ROD Attachment C, Table 16) Aesthetics As described in Sections 2.2 and 2.3, the Reevaluation Alternative will incorporate approximately 90 more housing units than the number proposed under Alternative 3. Reconfiguration of the central park has reduced the footprints of adjacent buildings, thus increasing height and density at these locations. The following sections provide an overview of existing conditions and evaluate the aesthetic impacts associated with these changes. Environmental Context Existing aesthetic conditions are documented in detail in Chapter 3.12.1 of the Draft NEPA/SEPA EIS. As described in that document, the built environment in the study area generally consists of one- and two- story single-family, multifamily, and commercial buildings at relatively low development intensity, though some three-story apartment buildings are present, as well. Much of the housing stock in the area is older, and many of the structures, both residential and commercial, are in need of repair. Overall, visual bulk, as well as light and glare, are quite low. Most of the light and glare present in the study area is generated by vehicular traffic on NE Sunset Boulevard. Sidewalks in the area are often narrow or not present, and the streetscape is generally lacking in pedestrian amenities, though mature street trees are present in many areas. Impacts As described in Section 2.0, the construction of additional housing units in the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area, combined with reconfiguration of the park, would result in additional building height beyond the level studied under Alternative 3 or the Preferred Alternative studied in the NEPA/SEPA EIS, specifically at Sites H, I, and J proposed for development along NE Sunset Boulevard. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 20 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM See Exhibit 17 which shows heights allowed under CV zoning and Exhibit 18 which shows proposed maximum heights under consideration (depending on location 52-68 feet in building heights are proposed; the diagram shows elevations at 50, 60, and 70 feet). The focus is on the subject site; while current buildings on adjacent sites to the south are lower scale presently, they have similar CV zoning and ability to achieve 50-60 feet in height. Visual Character Relative to Alternative 3 and the Preferred Alternative, the Reevaluation Alternative would represent very minor additional changes to the visual character of the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area. The overall character of the neighborhood would continue its transition from a low-rise, low-intensity land use pattern to a higher-density, mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented village. Though the Reevaluation Alternative would further intensify this pattern, improvements to the streetscape and pedestrian environment that will accompany future development, such as bicycle lanes, planted medians, and enlarged sidewalks, will provide aesthetic improvements over the current visual character of the area. With application of required design standards and implementation of the mitigation measures established in the NEPA/SEPA EIS, no additional significant adverse impacts to visual character are anticipated. Height and Bulk The Reevaluation Alternative would introduce additional building height in the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment, beyond the level evaluated in the NEPA/SEPA EIS. Alternative 3 evaluated building heights of 2-4 stories, which was within the range of current zoning regulations. The Reevaluation Alternative would introduce building heights of 5-6 stories along NE Sunset Boulevard, which would exceed the current maximum height allowed by zoning. This would increase the visual prominence of development in the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area, particularly given the location of future buildings on Sites H, I, and J along NE Sunset Boulevard, which is a high-traffic street. Exceeding the maximum allowed building height would require a conditional use permit from the City, to which conditions may be applied to mitigate potential impacts of views from public spaces such as SR 900 and the future Sunset Park. The Reevaluation Alternative would also, however, include a larger amount of park space in the Redevelopment Area, which would provide a substantial amenity to area residents and reduce the overall visual impression of height and bulk from viewers located further northward of the loop road. For park users, who would be closer to the proposed buildings, increased height could create a perception for park uses of being surrounded by buildings looming over them, depending on design treatments. There would be increased height and bulk from the perspective of pedestrians on NE Sunset Boulevard. Thus small adjustments to reduce height and bulk related to the increased height and intensity of the structures would reduce impacts. Current city design standards address some aspects of this through standards addressing building modulation and roofline variation; additional consideration of City design standards regarding upper story setbacks is recommended.

RENTON SUNSET AREA MSP:FINAL DRAFT FOR INTERNAL REVIEW m u io.:inn N I T H U N DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 23 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM Shade and Shadow While the Reevaluation Alternative would introduce greater building heights in the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area, the incremental effect on shading conditions would be minor. The nearby pedestrian areas are already likely to experience some moderate shading from buildings and street trees under Alternative 3 and the Preferred Alternative, as described in the NEPA/SEPA EIS. Increased height on Sites H, I, and J at the southern end of the Redevelopment Area would have the potential to slightly increase the length of shadows cast on the interior park to the north. However, reconfiguration of the park to increase its size as part of the updated Master Site Plan process would ameliorate this to some degree, and the application of design standards such as upper story setbacks would further reduce shading impact from increased building height. Mitigation Measures Incorporated Plan Features • The Reevaluation Alternative provides for a larger park space than originally proposed with the Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3 in the FEIS. Adopted Regulations All development under the Reevaluation Alternative will be required to comply with adopted City of Renton development regulations, as described in the FEIS, including standards regarding site design, open space, residential design, pedestrian amenities, architectural features, and exterior lighting. Of particular relevance to the proposed height increase is RMC 4-3-100E.1. RMC 4-3-100E.1, Transition to Surrounding Development, requires: At least one of the following design elements shall be used to promote a transition to surrounding uses: 1. Building proportions, including step-backs on upper levels in accordance with the surrounding planned and existing land use forms;or 2. Building articulation to divide a larger architectural element into smaller increments;or 3. Roof lines, roof pitches, and roof shapes designed to reduce apparent bulk and transition with existing development. Additionally, the Administrator may require increased setbacks at the side or rear of a building in order to reduce the bulk and scale of larger buildings and/or so that sunlight reaches adjacent and/or abutting yards." Based on this reevaluation, this analysis recommends application of items 1 and 3. For item 1 it is recommended that the City consider upper story setbacks of 2-4 feet along SR 900 and 4-6 feet along Sunset Lane fronting the future Park. Application of these recommendations would be considered during the height-based conditional use permit and during future detailed Site Plan Review. 3.3 Transportation Based on the results of the traffic analysis, the Reevaluation Alternative is expected to operate similarly to the Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3. The intersection LOS at each study location is expected to be the same between each of the alternatives, in both 2015 and 2030. The average vehicle delay difference at most of the study intersections in the Reevaluation Alternative is expected to be negligible compared to the delay with Alternative 3 or the Preferred Alternative. Similar mitigation measures as identified in the FEIS would still be required. See Attachment B. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 24 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM There is no change in the overall neighborhood growth and therefore no change in projected traffic volumes and associated noise from the prior 2011 FEIS.As the Reevaluation Alternative makes some site plan changes (e.g. different arrangement of market rate and affordable units, setbacks of buildings from the future SR 900 improvement boundaries are less than for the Preferred Alternative; the Master Plan continues to encircle the park with buildings), a review of the noise mitigation measures is made in Attachment C. Based on the Reevaluation Alternative and the mitigation measures from the FEIS, where applicable, no changes to conclusions about impacts are anticipated. Parks and Recreation Since the time of the FEIS,the City has adopted a Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan and modified its level of service (LOS) standards. Based on an ESRI demographic summary of the Renton Sunset area of nearly 0.44 square miles, the average household size in 2010 was shown at 2.40. Applying this to the proposed net increase in dwellings of 554 dwellings in the Sunset Terrace the population would equal nearly 1,330 persons. The City's developed park standard is 1 acre of parkland per 200 people which would mean the area considered in isolation from the rest of the neighborhood (not necessarily the intent of the citywide parks plan) would produce a demand for 6.7 acres of developed parks. There are additional standards for natural areas that are not necessarily intended to be applied in an urban setting absent critical areas. While the proposed Sunset Park is less than 6.6 acres, it is at 2.99 acres in the Reevaluation Alternative, the largest public space considered compared to FEIS alternatives. Further, if the full City standard were applied the park space would essentially take up nearly all of the original 7.3 acres of the Sunset Terrace public housing site, also not intended by City plans. In sum, the results of the FEIS Selected Alternatives apply to the Reevaluation alternative, as follows, except that the Reevaluation Alternative reduces the potential under-serving of the area with City parks: • Similar to Alternative 3, without additional park and recreation facilities added to the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, the forecast population in this subarea would remain underserved with respect to parks and recreation facilities. However, under the Preferred Alternative and the Reevaluation Alternative, Sunset Court Park would be relocated to the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea. Additionally, this park would be expanded from 0.5 acre to 2.65 acres under the Preferred Alternative and would be even larger under the Reevaluation Alternative at 2.99 acres. This would increase the acreage in neighborhood parkland for this subarea and the Planned Action Study Area. • Similar to Alternative 3, NE Sunset Boulevard would be improved to include bike lanes, intersection improvements, and sidewalks, providing a more walkable corridor and more direct access route between residential areas and parkland. • Under the Preferred Alternative and the Reevaluation Alternative,the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea would be underserved, according to the results when applying the City's parks and recreation LOS standards. • Stormwater elements would be incorporated into park and recreation facilities within the Planned Action Study Area under the Preferred Alternative. See the water resources analysis (Final EIS Section 3.3)for a discussion of combining facilities. However, Stormwater management facilities cannot be counted toward park/recreation acreage for purposes of meeting park LOS. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 25 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM Some original mitigation measures addressed in the FEIS and resulting ROD have been implemented previously to reduce impacts, including: • A new Parks, Recreation, Open Space and Natural Resources Plan addressing parks and recreation services citywide. • The City adopted amendments to its development codes that would provide for payment of a fee- in-lieu for required common open space. Other mitigation measures identified in the FEIS would still be applicable broadly in the neighborhood benefiting the study area: • The City and Renton School District could develop a joint-use agreement for public use of school grounds for parks and recreation purposes during non-school hours. Joint-use agreements between the City and Renton School District could also be used to, at least partially, address the LOS deficiencies in existing recreation facilities. • The City could add parks and recreation facilities such as: o The City could convert current public properties no longer needed for their current uses to parks and recreation uses, such as the Highlands Library that is intending to move and expand off site. Draft EIS Figure 4.15-2 shows properties in public use. o The City could purchase private property for parks and recreation use. An efficient means would be to consider properties in the vicinity of existing parks and recreation facilities or where additional population growth would be greatest. Draft EIS Figure 4.15-2 shows locations where future demand could be greater and where the City could focus acquisition efforts. Public Serviceti The overall conclusions of the FEIS for Selected Alternatives is expected to be similar for the Reevaluation Alternative, except that patterns of growth and demand may slight shift to have slightly greater need in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area and slightly less in the overall neighborhood: • The Renton Police Department could experience an increase in calls for service related to construction site theft,vandalism, or trespassing relating to construction. • Construction impacts on fire protection and emergency medical services could include increased calls for service related to inspection of construction sites and potential construction-related injuries. • There may be temporary changes to nonmotorized and motorized access to health care services during infrastructure construction (e.g., NE Sunset Boulevard), but alternative routes would be established. • There may be temporary changes to nonmotorized and motorized access to social services during infrastructure construction (e.g., NE Sunset Boulevard), but alternative routes would be established. • Redevelopment of the Sunset Terrace housing development would displace the existing on-site community meeting space that is currently used for on-site social service programs. However,the space would be replaced onsite or nearby with a larger and more modern facility, and with appropriate phasing of development, disruption to on-site social service programs can be minimized or avoided. • Selected Sunset Area Alternatives would result in construction-related waste generation. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 26 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM • When the library is relocated, library services may be temporarily unavailable in the study area, but services would be available at other branches. The FEIS identified specific demand ratios for all of the above services and calculated the number of personnel, space, etc. that would result from the growth in the neighborhood as a whole and in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea. There would be an increase in dwellings and population in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, but no change to the growth in overall neighborhood dwellings and population, under the Reevaluation Alternative. Therefore, it is anticipated that the share of demand for services and space would slightly increase in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, but not in the neighborhood as a whole, and overall FEIS results are applicable as are the mitigation measures. Utilitie [To be provided by City following Master Plan review meeting; also see correspondence regarding sewer in Attachment D.] Other FEIS Topics Generally, regarding natural environment topics (earth, air quality, water resources, plants and animals), there are no anticipated changes to overall conclusions or mitigation measures in the ROD and Planned Action since the proposed mixed use development activities are essentially occurring the same footprint and the impervious estimates in the FEIS and ROD are maintained [confirm]. Conditions, mitigation measures, and conclusions regarding Environmental Health and Historic/Cultural Features are likewise unchanged. No environmental health conditions or cultural resources features are known in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, but in case such features are uncovered mitigation measures would apply. Built environment topics that are more suited to analysis under cumulative growth conditions include air quality and energy. The level of potential greenhouse gas emissions and energy use may be slightly higher in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, but not in the neighborhood as a whole, and overall FEIS results are applicable as are the mitigation measures. Last, regarding socio-economics, housing, and environmental justice, it is anticipated that the overall conditions and impacts regarding the potential for change in the neighborhood, need for relocation assistance, etc. are still valid as the study area would still redevelop from present conditions to a mixed use, amenity-rich environment. "- CONCLUSIONS The City of Renton (City) is the Responsible Entity and lead agency for NEPA purposes. In accordance with specific statutory authority and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) regulations at 24 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 58, the City is authorized to assume responsibility for environmental review, decision-making, and action that would otherwise apply to HUD under NEPA. Additionally, the City is the proponent of the broader Planned Action for the Sunset area which has had environmental review under Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Revised Code of Washington [RCW] 43.21C). The City has performed joint NEPA/SEPA environmental review in cooperation with the Recipient, the Renton Housing Authority (RHA). Accordingly, the City prepared a Draft and Final EIS to analyze DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 27 RENTON SUNSET COMMUNITY AREA REEVALUATION AND ADDENDUM potential impacts of redevelopment of the Sunset Terrace public housing community. The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) supporting both milestones was issued April 1, 2011. The City initiated consultation with agencies and tribes regarding permit requirements and to identify any areas of concerns regarding the Sunset Terrace public housing redevelopment as well as the overall Planned Action. Federal and state agencies were notified of comment opportunities through the scoping process and were offered comment opportunity on the Draft EIS. Two agencies were particularly consulted consistent with NEPA, the National Historic Preservation Act (Section 106), and the Endangered Species Act (Section 7). As documented in the ROD and Environmental Review Record, the City received a letter of concurrence from NMFS in May 2011. The Biological Assessment and NMFS memoranda are included in the Environmental Review Record. The City also completed Section 106 consultation for Sunset Terrace redevelopment and all properties fronting NE Sunset Boulevard as documented in the ROD and Environmental Review Record. In addition, consistent with the federal Coastal Zone Management Act, the City received a letter of consistency from the State of Washington Department of Ecology (16 U.S.C. 1451-1464). In May 2011, the City of Renton completed a ROD in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act, and a Planned Action Ordinance in accordance with the State Environmental Policy Act. The ROD and Planned Action Ordinance identified mitigation measures from the FEIS. The ROD concluded that "With the application of City-adopted development regulations and recommended mitigation measures, and application of other federal and state requirements, no significant unavoidable adverse impacts are anticipated. Pursuant to 40 CFR 1505.3, this decision to proceed with Sunset Terrace and actions in the broader area will be implemented and mitigation measures imposed through appropriate conditions in any land use or related permits or approvals issued by the City of Renton and through conditions of federal funding." This Reevaluation and Addendum maintains the mitigation measures from the ROD and Planned Action and identifies where the application of such mitigation measures (e.g. design guidelines, stormwater best management practices) is particularly relevant and could be included in permit conditions. [Pending: Address when the utilities analysis is complete, and following staff review of the Reevaluation. In general, we would like to be able to say something similar to the following example statement from Bay Vista in Bremerton: The City finds by this re-evaluation, after considering the effects of the revised Master Plan and existing and supplemental environmental documentation, that no substantive change to the findings in the Record of Decision would occur. The Westpark EIS adequately examines the impacts of the overall project, and the proposed changes in the Master Plan would not result in modification to those conclusions. No new or significantly different impacts to the environment would occur. Mitigation measures incorporated in the proposal and identified in the EIS, and additional consultation and mitigation documented in the Record of Decision, represent reasonable steps to reduce adverse environmental effects of the proposed project. Together, these measures and would reduce effects to acceptable levels. No additional mitigation is warranted as a result of changes proposed in the Master Plan.] DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 28 ATTACHMENT A: RENTON SUNSET TERRACE REDEVELOPMENT: PARKING ANALYSIS Proposed Parking Total Spacesfor Total Proposed Additional Use Type Proposed Parking City Parking Needed Neighborhood (Orig Units with Spaces for Renton Municipal Code: Use/ City Min Max for beyond Site Building Name Use Proposal) Reevaluation Project Zoning Min-Max of Required Spaces for Use Use Proposal D Sunset Terrace Site 5 Residential(low income) 41 43 41 CV low income .25-1.75 per DU 10.75 75.25 Allowed Range: 10.75 75.25 None Attached dwellings within all J Sunset Terrace Site 6/7 Residential 190 112 190 CV other zones/ 1-1.75 per DU ill 194.25 Allowed Range: ill 194.25 None Attached dwellings within all I Sunset Terrace Site 7/8 Residential 271 201 271 CV other zones/ 1-1.75 per DU 201 351.75 Allowed Range: 201 351.75 None K Sunset Terrace Site 9/10 Library(15,000 sq ft) 51 182 CV cultural:4 per 1000 sf 60 60 Retail(2.5 stall/1,000 sq ft), Services(3/1000 sq ft),Office 11 11 H Commercial(4,489 sq ft) 11 (2/1000 s ft) Attached dwellings within all 118 207 H Residential ill 118 other zones/ 1-1.75 per DU Allowed Range: 189 278 G Sunset Terrace Site 11 Residential(low-income) 61 56 CV low income .25-1.75 per DU 15.25 98 Allowed Range: 15.25 98 None Residential: 3-bedroom E Sunset Terrace Site 16/17 townhomes 10 30 10 R-14 low income .25-1.75 per DU 2.5 17.5 10 Albwed Range: 2.5 17.5 None Reevaluation:June 10,2014 1 CH2MHILL Attachment B SUNSET AREA COMMUNITY PLANNED ACTION UPDATE: Sunset Area Community Planned Action Update: Traffic Analysis Results - May 2014 Redevelopment Master Site Plan Alternative INTRODUCTION This memorandum provides traffic analysis results for the May 2014 Redevelopment Master Site Plan Alternative,or Reevaluation Alternative,of the Sunset Area Community Planned Action,and compares these results with operations for Alternative 3 and the Preferred Alternative as documented in the Final NEPA/SEPA EIS. Compared to Alternative 3,the Reevaluation Alternative includes a maximum of 90 additional units in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea.These 90 additional units are shifted out of the North, South,and Sunset Mixed Use areas of the Planned Action study area. This analysis focuses on the intersection operations expected as a result of this shift. TRIP GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION Trips generated by Alternative 3 and the Preferred Alternative in the Planned Action study area were estimated using the City's version of the PSRC regional travel forecasting model with applied future-year proposed land uses.The Alternative 3 traffic volumes,as analyzed in the Final NEPA/SEPA EIS,were used as a base to develop the Reevaluation Alternative volumes. Trips generated by the 90 additional units were removed from the North,South,and Sunset Mixed Use areas,and re-routed to the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment.Assuming the 90 shifted housing units consist of medium to high density low-rise apartment dwellings, approximately 61 trips would be generated during the weekday PM peak hour. (Source: Institute of Transportation Engineers,Trip Generation Manual,9th Edition, Institute of Transportation Engineers.) Approximately half of the units (47 units)would be shifted from the North subarea, 37 percent (33 units) would be shifted from the South subarea,and the remaining 11 percent(10 units) would come from the northeast end of the Sunset Mixed Use subarea. TRAFFIC ANALYSIS RESULTS Traffic analysis results were calculated for the PM peak hour for the years 2015 and 2030. In general,future traffic patterns in the Reevaluation Alternative would differ slightly from both the Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3. On eastbound NE Sunset Boulevard fewer trips would turn left at Kirkland Avenue NE (since they would no longer be accessing housing units in the North subarea).These trips would likely 1 turn left onto Harrington Avenue NE or NE 10th Street instead to reach the 90 units that have shifted into the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea. Fewer trips on southbound Edmonds Avenue NE would turn left to eastbound NE 12th Street, and would instead be likely to continue south to NE Sunset Boulevard.At NE Sunset Boulevard, these vehicles would turn left and continue to Harrington Avenue NE or NE loth Street to reach the housing units. As a result of the shift in units from the South subarea, fewer trips would turn right from eastbound NE Sunset Boulevard to Edmonds Avenue NE, Harrington Avenue NE,or NE 10th Street.Instead,these trips would likely turn left at Harrington Avenue NE or NE loth Street from NE Sunset Boulevard. Traffic operations for the Reevaluation Alternative are analyzed assuming the same signal timing as currently employed by the City.This existing signal timing and phasing provides a conservative analysis of future operations.The expected operational levels of service(LOS) and delay results in 2015 with Reevaluation Alternative are compared to the operations results of the Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3 in Table 1.Table 2 shows the operational results comparison for the year 2030.

Bold type indicates results worse than City LOS D threshold. Based on the results of the traffic analysis,the Reevaluation Alternative is expected to operate similarly to the Preferred Alternative and Alternative 3. The intersection LOS at each study location is expected to be the same between each of the alternatives,in both 2015 and 2030.The average vehicle delay difference at most of the study intersections in the Reevaluation Alternative is expected to be negligible compared to the delay with Alternative 3 or the Preferred Alternative. At the stop-controlled intersection of NE 12th Street and Edmonds Avenue NE,the average vehicle delay with Reevaluation Alternative is slightly better than the delay in Alternative 3 but slightly worse than with the Preferred Alternative.This nominal improvement over Alternative 3 would not affect the LOS F condition,but would reduce the average delay per vehicle by approximately 2 seconds.This slight reduction is likely due to fewer vehicles making left turns at this location.Trips generated by the 90 shifted units would likely access the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea directly from NE Sunset Boulevard,and would no longer have to travel through the intersection at NE 12th Street and Edmonds Avenue NE to reach their destination. The stop-controlled intersection of NE 121h Street and Harrington Avenue NE would operate at LOS F in each alternative in 2030 but would experience minor delay improvements with Reevaluation Alternative compared to Alternative 3 (approximately 4 seconds per vehicle) and the Preferred Alternative (approximately 2 seconds per vehicle on average). Due to the shift in 3 housing units from the north,fewer trips would travel through the NE 12th Street at Harrington Avenue NE intersection,which reduces the overall delay,because they would likely remain on NE Sunset Boulevard to access their destination. Vehicles accessing the 90 additional housing units in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea would likely come from both directions of NE Sunset Boulevard. Harrington Avenue NE and NE 10th Street would provide direct access to these units;therefore both these intersections on NE Sunset Boulevard would experience slightly higher turning traffic volumes in Reevaluation Alternative compared to Alternative 3 and the Preferred Alternative. The increase in vehicle demand is not expected to affect the LOS in Reevaluation Alternative compared to Alternative 3; both intersections are expected to operate at LOS B or better in both horizon years.The additional vehicles are not expected to significantly worsen the average delay per vehicle since both locations are signalized and are expected to have ample capacity to accommodate increases in vehicle demand resulting from 90 additional housing units. The mitigation measures identified in the ROD would still be appropriate,as follows: 4 Table 28.

Edmonds Avenue NE and NE 12th Street:an additional southbound left-turn pocket and westbound right-turn pocket would improve operations to LOS E,while added pedestrian-and bicycle-oriented paths or multi-use trails to encourage mode shifts would likely improve operations to LOS D. . At the Harrington Avenue NE and NE 12th Street intersection:the eastbound and westbound approaches could be restriped to increase the number of lanes and,therefore,the capacity of the intersection.With implementation,this intersection would improve to LOS D. Construction Mitigation Temporary mitigation during construction may be necessary to ensure safe travel and manage traffic delays.The following mitigation measures shall be implemented prior to or during construction within the Planned Action Study Area. Prior to construction: o Assess pavement and subsurface condition of roadways being proposed for transport of construction materials and equipment. Ensure pavement can support loads. Adequate pavement quality would likely reduce the occurrence of potholes and would help maintain travel speeds. o Alert landowners and residents of potential construction.Motorists may be able to adjust schedules and routes to avoid 5 Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Planned Action Study Area Subarea construction areas and minimize disruptions. o Develop traffic control plans for all affected roadways.Outline procedures for maintenance of traffic,develop detour plans, and identify potential reroutes. o Place advance warning signage on roadways surrounding construction locations to minimize traffic disturbances. During construction: o Place advance warning signage on NE Sunset Boulevard and adjacent arterials to warn motorists of potential vehicles entering and exiting the roadway.Signage could include"Equipment on Road,""Truck Access,"or"Slow Vehicles Crossing." o Use pilot cars as dictated by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT). o Encourage carpooling among construction workers to reduce traffic volume to and from the construction site. o Employ flaggers,as necessary,to direct traffic when vehicles or large equipment are entering or exiting the public road system to minimize risk of conflicts between trucks and passenger vehicles. o Maintain at least one travel lane at all times, if possible.Use flaggers to manage alternating directions of traffic.If lane closures must occur,adequate signage for potential detours or possible delays should be posted. o Revisit traffic control plans as construction occurs.Revise traffic control plans to improve mobility or address safety issues if necessary. s Attachment C Summary of Reevaluation Approach — Noise EIS Impact Analysis: Development would result in a noise increase from vehicles traveling on NE Sunset Boulevard and local streets. As disclosed in the EIS, the estimated day-night noise levels from NE Sunset Boulevard at the adjacent buildings indicates they would be exposed to "normally unacceptable" noise levels exceeding U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) outdoor day-night noise criterion of 65 dBA. The noise levels at these first row residential dwellings currently exceed the HUD noise criterion and would continue to exceed the criterion under Selected Sunset Area Alternatives. Noise levels would be below the "unacceptable" criteria. Conclusions: Portions of the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea, even under existing conditions and the No Action Alternative, would be deemed "normally unacceptable" under the HUD noise criteria without implementation of noise attenuation mitigation, due to traffic noise from the adjacent street (NE Sunset Boulevard). No significant unavoidable adverse noise impacts are anticipated in this subarea, if the noise control measures noted below are implemented to reduce anticipated future traffic noise to levels suitable for residential uses under the HUD criteria.

BERK Consulting June 9, 2014 1 SUMMARY OF REEVALUATION APPROACH-NOISE Original Mitigation Measure Approach in Master Plan According to HUD noise guidebook, noise • The City will apply construction standards via the attenuation from various building materials are International Building Code and the State Energy calculated using sound transmission class (STC) Code.These codes would likely lead to building rating.Although the standard construction materials and practices that could meet the approaches can normally achieve the STC rating of standard STC rating and likely beyond. For more than 24 dBA as demonstrated in Final EIS example,compared to assumptions included in Appendix E,the City shall require a STC rating of 30 FEIS Appendix F, page 4, February 23, 2011 dBA reduction for these first row residential memo,the City's adopted Energy Code insulation dwellings because the HUD noise guidebook shows standards are much higher than the assumptions that the sound reduction achieved by different considered: 1.A standard exterior wall is actually techniques may be a little optimisticl. 2x6 studs with R-21 insulation. 2.

(pers com,Jan Conkling, Energy Plans Reviewer, City of Renton) Other Mitigation Previously Considered and Rejected, Appendix F of FEIS: The noise analysis in Draft EIS Section 3.6/4.6 and Final EIS Section 3.6 shows that sound walls are not feasible due to the height and location and lack of benefit to upper storey uses; the mixed use character of the development close to sidewalks and roads is intended to invite community use. The shallow nature of the property, topography, lot pattern, and the road system as well as zoning requirements mean that the [Preferred Alternative] building setbacks from NE Sunset Boulevard are the most that can be reasonably achieved and are greater than the current development. 1 HUD noise guidebook, Chapter 4, page 33"... use the STC ratings with a bit of caution and remain aware of the possible 2-3 dB overstating that you may get with the STC rating system."

The Sunset Terrace community is bounded by Sunset Blvd NE on the south that forms a U-shaped border, Glenwood Avenue NE and NE 10`h Street on the north; Harrington Avenue NE bisects the area. Redevelopment of this area envisions Sunset Terrace as a mixed-use, mixed-income community anchored by a new public library and a new park. Mixed-use sites will have both market rate and affordable rental housing in multi-story, multi-family townhomes and apartments, along with commercial and retail space. Defining features of the site plan include: • An expanded Sunset Neighborhood Park centrally located within the site. • A circular local road system that facilitates circulation around the park, connecting Sunset Lane, NE 10`h, and the southern end of Glenwood Ave NE. • Compatibility with future multimodal SR 900 improvements. • Mixed-use development with residential and commercial uses including retail space and a library. • A Library situated at the corner of NE 10`h and Sunset Blvd. NE across from the proposed expanded park. The following narrative is intended to accompany the conceptual Master Plan developed for the City of Renton. While it is anticipated that the conceptual Master Plan will be refined as additional information becomes available, it is the intent of this conceptual plan and narrative to articulate the goals and design elements that are essential to the overall vision of the redevelopment plan. This Master Site Plan will facilitate the preparation of phased specific site plans over time and allow the City to determine consistency.

Parcel acres for properties along SR 900 assume dedication of ROW per the 2011 SR 900 Conceptual Plan and 0 feet front yard setback. Lot depths are 120 feet east of Harrington Avenue NE consistent with the VEER site plan for Lots 9/10, and 130 west of Harrington Avenue NE to allow for sufficient depths of buildings that have underbuilding parking, odd geometries and a small setback from Sunset Lane NE. However, it may be possible to reduce the lot depth in some areas west of Harrington Avenue NE and increase the park site. This would have an effect on individual site calculations for density and building/lot coverage but cumulatively the results should be similar. Proposed and Existing Land Use The existing property (as of 2012) contained 110 dwelling units, with 100 units on Sunset Terrace public housing site itself. Since that time a Demolition and Disposition Permit was granted by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, and site plan, construction, and building permits were issued by the City of Renton to allow demolition of some of the public housing units for the 15,000 square foot library currently under construction and a future mixed use building. On the whole, the proposed Master Plan would create additional multifamily housing, park space, public library space, and retail space on the property. Proposed residential land includes apartments and attached townhomes that are generally between two and four stories in height, extending to five and six stories along SR 900. Proposed commercial space would equal between 19,500-59,000 square feet, with 15,000 square feet consisting of a newly relocated Renton Highlands Library (this use has already been permitted and is under construction), and the rest consisting of retail or office space depending on market needs. See Exhibit 3 for a summary of total development proposed with the Master Plan. Exhibit 3.

Proposed for the site is a four- story multi-family building containing 43 apartment units. Future buildings would orient towards Sunset Lane N.E., with a direct sidewalk connection. Parking is anticipated to be under building. Construction is anticipated in 2017. Existing Conditions There are currently two single story wood-framed apartment buildings containing XX units. The property also contains ornamental landscaping. Neighborhood Sites I and J/ Master Plan Properties 6/7 and 7/8/ Buildings B and C Proposed Development Site 6/7 is approximately 0.81 acres in the CV Zone. A five-story multi-family project with associated structured parking is proposed for the site. The building will contain a total of 111 residential units. The proposed building height is 58 feet with a request for a modification from the allowable building height of 50 feet for multi-family residential buildings to the proposed height of 58 feet. The additional height is necessary in order to develop enough residential units to make the project viable. (Note: There is capacity to add commercial uses in the Master Plan should future applicants so choose; to promote mixed uses, the maximum height allowed by zone is 60 feet, and in that case, no height modification would be needed.) DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 8 Both pedestrian access and vehicular access to structured parking on the site would be provided off Sunset Lane NE. Common open space would be provided and may include a plaza space over the structured parking area, and at the first residential story level. Such a common use space could have views to the west towards Lake Washington and the Olympic Mountains for all residents in the building. Private open space would most likely be provided through private decks. However, at the time of Site Plan Review, the Director may approve modifications such as a percentage of units that may have alternative private open space standards if meeting the overall intent of design standards and other criteria at 4-3-100(F) and RMC 4-9-250(D). It is estimated that building construction for this phase will start in October of 2016 and completion of construction is targeted for March of 2018. Approvals necessary for this project will consist of Site Plan Review and the required building permits. Site 7/8 is approximately 1.13 acres and lies in the CV Zone. A six-story multi-family project with associated structured parking is proposed for the site. The building will contain a total of 201 residential units. In order to develop enough residential units to make the project viable, there is also a request for a modification to the allowable building height to extend from the standard 50 feet to 62 feet. (Note: There is capacity to add commercial uses in the Master Plan should future applicants so choose; to promote mixed uses, the maximum height allowed by zone is 60 feet, and a smaller height modification would be needed.) Vehicular access to structured parking on the site would be provided at multiple points along Sunset Lane N.E. Pedestrian access to a residential lobby would also occur from Sunset Lane NE. Common open space would be provided indoor and outdoor. Located in the Renton Highlands like most sites in this area there are good territorial views at floors higher than immediate adjacent development. Common use plazas would be provided for use by all residents that live in the building. The plazas will be orientated south and will take advantage of extensive territorial views in that direction because of the way the surrounding topography drops off to the south.The City may allow substitutions of common open space in light of the public park provided adjacent to the properties. See RMC 4-1-240 for Common Open Space Substitutions. This would likely require a Fee in Lieu of Common Open Space. This would be addressed in future Site Plan Review applications. Private open space is required. A preponderance of the future dwelling units will have private open space such as in the form of decks. However, at the time of Site Plan Review, the Director may approve modifications such as a percentage of units that may have alternative private open space standards if meeting the overall intent of design standards and other criteria at 4-3-100(F) and RMC 4-9-250(D). The proposed building will be constructed in a single phase. The year of construction is anticipated to be 2016. Existing Conditions Currently there are eight two-story multi-family residential buildings on the sites containing XX units. Besides the residential structures, the sites contain mainly lawn, with few trees and sidewalks connecting entranceways to the sidewalk along Sunset Lane NE. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 9 Neighborhood Sites H & K/ Master Plan Property 9/10/ Building A Proposed Development The site is approximately 0.95 acres and zoned CV. A six-story mixed-use building with associated structured parking is proposed for the site. The building will contain a total of 118 residential units and about 19,500 square feet of commercial space including a 15,000 square foot King County Library facility. The proposed building height is 68 feet with a request for modification to building height above the 60 feet that is allowed for buildings that contain commercial space. This request is made necessary because roughly 40%of the site will be comprised of the one story library structure. In order to develop enough residential units on the remaining 60% of the site to make the project viable the additional height is necessary. Common open space is required. The City may allow substitutions of common open space in light of the public park provided adjacent to the properties. See RMC 4-1-240 for Common Open Space Substitutions.This would likely require a Fee in Lieu of Common Open Space.This would be addressed in future Site Plan Review applications. Private open space is required. Most future dwelling units will have private open space such as in the form of decks. However, at the time of Site Plan Review, the Director may approve modifications such as a percentage of units that may have alternative private open space standards if meeting the overall intent of design standards and other criteria at 4-3-100(F) and RMC 4-9-250(D). It is estimated that building construction for this phase will start in October of 2014 and completion of construction is targeted for March of 2016. Existing Conditions Currently there are three two-story multi-family residential buildings on the sites. Besides the residential structures, the sites contain mainly lawn, with few trees and sidewalks connecting entranceways to the sidewalks along Sunset Lane NE and Harrington Ave NE. Neighborhood Site G / Sunset Park East (Piha) Townhomes and Apartments / Master Plan Property 11 Proposed Development The Sunset Park Townhomes East (Piha Site) site is approximately 1.09 acres in size and zoned CV. The proposed development consists of three multi-story, multi-family residential buildings with a below grade parking structure. Future plans include 3 buildings containing a total of 61 multi-family units with a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom units. The buildings range in height from 2 to 4 stories, and the overall proposed building height is 48 feet. Proposed off-site improvements include a new sidewalk along Sunset Lane NE. Existing Conditions The site is currently undeveloped lawn, with a small paved portion at the northern corner. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 10 Neighborhood Site E/ Sunset Park West Townhomes / Master Plan Properties 14, 16 and 17 Proposed Development This site is approximately 0.55 acres. The proposed development consists of two, two-story, multi- family residential buildings with associated surface parking. These buildings contain ten townhome dwelling units. The proposed building height is 30 feet. Existing Conditions The site currently contains three, one-story, wood-framed houses and three sheds. With the exception of the structures, existing on-site surface coverage is largely lawn. 1.3 Transportation/Circulation The Master Plan assumes future NE Sunset Boulevard (SR 900) improvements to a "complete streets" standard where feasible. Master Plan lots fronting SR 900 have a frontage line consistent with future improvements. A loop road would occur along Sunset Lane NE and would encircle the Park. Along the library and mixed- use building space, the lane could be specially paved and serve as a plaza for special events. The width of this roadway is 53 feet. The Sunset Area "green connections" would be implemented per the Sunset Area Surface Water Master Plan such as on Harrington Avenue NE that traverses the Master Plan site. The City is considering street reclassifications and two new street sections for roads that have 60-foot rights of way presently: Green Collector and Neighborhood Collector. See the preliminary Exhibit 7. Based on a review by CH2MHill, the 60 foot right of way is consistent with the "Green Connections" cross section in the Sunset Area Surface Water Master Plan. However, the Green Connections can only be implemented in some locations and therefore a 60 foot cross-section for a Neighborhood Collector is also proposed.

Proposed park components include a performance space, a child-friendly water feature, play area, picnic area, restroom building, fitness equipment, walking loop, integration of art, passive open space, plazas, and rain gardens. Both the park and the regional storm water facility require maintenance access and load/unload areas. The maintenance access and load/unload zone will be located on the north side of the future park along (extended) NE 10th. An internal walkway system will be incorporated into the park however a perimeter park sidewalk will not be included. The future park and regional storm water facility will provide the public distinct opportunities for the public to engage in environmental and recreation opportunities in an urban setting. Specific amenities will be identified through the ongoing public park conceptual master planning process. The regional stormwater facility will be constructed in advance of the future park but is dependent upon securing land rights. The estimated time for the stormwater facility completion is June 30, 2015. Park construction is contingent upon fee simple property acquisition, building demolition, ROW vacations, and lot line adjustments. The earliest park construction is likely to occur is 2017 with a 2018 anticipated completion date. The regional stormwater facility in Sunset Park will address flow control for SR 900 roadway water quality treatment. Onsite developments would provide for their own water quality treatment. The regional facility in the Park is designed for SR 900 and is not designed to receive any stormwater from the Master Plan area, and per the grant funding, this site cannot be used for mitigation. Existing Conditions Currently,there are one to two-story apartment buildings on the planned park area. Drainage and Impervious Surface Best Management Practices See the Reevaluation and Addendum under separate cover. In general the Master Plan sites together with other proposed housing sites in the vicinity would exceed the impervious area estimates of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), April 2011. To maintain the prior impervious surface estimates of the FEIS, additional best management practices (BMPS) are recommended to apply to Master Plan sites including more permeable sidewalks and other practices such as bioretention for the roadway areas and some raingardens or other practices for the buildings.

See Exhibit 9. • Neighborhood Site D, Sunset Terrace Apartments, Master Plan Property 5:The proposed density is 79.4 dwelling units per acre. It does not exceed the maximum density range for the CV zone. • Neighborhood Site J, Building C, Master Plan Property 617:The proposed density of the project is 137.0 dwelling units per acre. The maximum outright density allowed in the CV zone is 80 dwelling units per acre. • Neighborhood Site 1, Building B, Master Plan Property 718: The proposed density of the project is 177.0 dwelling units per acre. The maximum outright density allowed in the CV zone is 80 dwelling units per acre. • Neighborhood Sites H and K, Building A, Master Plan Properties 9110:The proposed density of the project is 124.2 dwelling units per acre. The maximum outright density allowed in the CV zone is 80 dwelling units per acre. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 14 • Neighborhood Site G, Sunset Park East(Piha) Townhomes and Apartments, Master Plan Property 11: The proposed density is 55.8 dwelling units per acre. This is below the zone's maximum density. • Neighborhood Site E, Sunset Park West Townhomes, Master Plan Properties 14, 16 and 17:The proposed density is 18.2 dwelling units per acre.This is .2 units over the maximum allowed density of 18 dwelling units per acre in the R-14 zone. However the definition of net density in RMC Chapter 4-11 allows the City to round down when fractional density numbers are less than 0.5. Viewed in context of the overall Sunset Terrace Site which since 2011 has been planned comprehensively as a coordinated mixed use redevelopment project with park amenities, the density would equal about 65 units an acre, less than the 80 units per acre maximum, that are components of the original site, the density would be well within range.

Most of the proposed parking for individual sites are within the allowable range determined by Renton municipal code, except for Site 9/10, which needs an additional 7 parking spaces to meet the required minimum number of parking spaces. However, because the other sites propose parking spaces well over the required minimum number, there could be adequate parking for the master site plan as a whole. A Joint Parking Agreement could be developed prior to future site plan approval addressing any shared parking arrangements, provided parking is within 750 feet of the intended site (4-4-080(E)(3)). The following provides narrative description as well as a summary table of proposed parking at the individual sites. • Neighborhood Site D, Sunset Terrace Apartments, Master Plan Property 5:: Proposed parking includes one stall per unit, located below grade. 41 parking spaces are proposed for the site. • Neighborhood Site 1, Building C, Master Plan Property 617: Parking requirements for Site 6/7 will be accommodated on three levels of below grade structured parking. Residential parking in the CV DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 15 zone is to be provided at one stall per dwelling unit. It is anticipated that there will be 190 parking stalls in the project. • Neighborhood Site 1, Building B, Master Plan Property 718: Parking requirements for Site 7/8 will be accommodated on two levels of structured parking, one below grade and one partially below grade. Residential parking in the CV zone is to be provided at one stall per dwelling unit. It is anticipated that there will be 271 parking stalls in the project. • Neighborhood Sites H and K, Building A, Master Plan Properties 9110: Parking requirements for Site 9/10 will be accommodated on three levels of structured parking, one below grade, one partially below grade and one above grade. Residential parking in the CV zone is to be provided at one stall per dwelling unit. 51 parking spaces are proposed for the library and the remaining commercial space will be parked at a minimum of 2.5 stall/1000 square feet thus requiring 11 commercial parking stalls. It is anticipated that there will be a total of 182 parking stalls in the project. o Library: There appears to be a mis-print in the code requiring 40 stalls per 1,000 square feet of cultural space, but the likely required rate was intended to be 4 per 1,000 square feet. A Director's interpretation was completed for this in a separate site plan review. • Neighborhood Site G, Sunset Park East(Piha) Townhomes and Apartments, Master Plan Property 11: Proposed parking includes one stall per unit that will be accommodated primarily below grade with some surface parking. 51 parking spaces are proposed for the site. • Neighborhood Site E, Sunset Park West Townhomes, Master Plan Properties 14, 16 and 17: Proposed parking for the sites includes 10 stalls, 1 per unit. Surface parking will be located to the north of the buildings to shield the parking from view. • Park: RMC4-4-080(F)(10) does not specify a parking standard for parks, and a Director decision would be needed; at this time it is understood that as a neighborhood park primarily serving adjacent development, walking is the primary mode of arriving at the park. Both the park and the regional storm water facility require maintenance access and load/unload areas which have been identified and located through the master planning process. Exhibit 10.

Based on preliminary analysis of individual conceptual site plans prepared by property owners (not formally under consideration at this stage), it appears to achieve the development goals including structured parking, All sites meet lot coverage standards, except for Sites H/K, I and J individually. However, collectively, with the Park site the CV zone sites do meet the CV zone requirements, and is consistent with the overall Master Plan approach to the sites. Site E meets the maximum 85% impervious coverage with only 53% in coverage. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 17 Exhibit 11.

Design The Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Master Site Plan is required to comply with Renton residential and urban design standards. The purpose of Residential Design and Open Space Standards (Renton Municipal Code 4-2-115) is to implement policies established in the Land Use and Community Design Elements of the Renton Comprehensive Plan, enhance quality of life by encouraging new residential development to produce beautiful neighborhoods of well-designed homes, and to mitigate the impacts of density for the neighborhood and the surrounding community. These standards would apply to Sites 14, 16 and 17, which is in R-14 Zoning. Urban Design Regulations (Renton Municipal Code 4-3-100) are established in accordance with and to implement policies established in the Land Use and Community Design Elements of the Renton Comprehensive Plan. These standards would apply to all other sites in the Master Plan, zoned Center Village (CV), with the exception of Site 14, 16 and 17. The following design standards will be used to evaluate the project at the time of Site Plan Review: 4-2-115 Residential Design and Open Space Standards 1. Site Design LOT CONFIGURATION: Variety in the configuration of lots enhances the image of variety of housing stock and helps minimize perceptions of monotony. GARAGES: The minimization of the visual impact of garages contributes to creating communities that are oriented to people and pedestrians, as opposed to automobiles. 2. Open Space OPEN SPACE: Open space is a significant element in the development of livable communities and creates opportunities for good health. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 18 3. Residential Design PRIMARY ENTRY. Homes with a visually prominent front entry foster the sense that the community is oriented to pedestrians. Features like porches and stoops at the front entry provide opportunity for social interaction and can contribute to a sense of place for residents. Additionally, porches work to minimize the appearance of bulk by breaking up the facade. FACADE MODULATION: The modulation of facades creates an appearance of variety, as well as visual breaks that help to create visual interest. WINDOWS AND DOORS: Windows and front doors are an integral part of the architectural character of a home and when they incorporate architectural elements of the home, they contribute to the overall balance and integration of the building form. Additionally, when they represent a significant amount of the facade of a home, they amplify the sense that the community is oriented to people. SCALE, BULK, AND CHARACTER: Residential communities are intended for people and homes that have appropriate scale and bulk contribute to the sense of orientation to people. Variety in the character of homes helps to minimize visual monotony while helping to foster a perception of uniqueness of place. ROOFS: Roof forms and profiles are an important component in the architectural character of homes and contribute to the massing, scale, and proportion of the home. Roofs also provide opportunity to create variety, especially for homes of the same model. EAVES: The design of eaves and overhangs act as unifying elements in the architectural character of a home. When sized adequately and used consistently, they work to create desirable shadows that help to create visual interest especially from blank, unbroken wall planes. ARCHITECTURAL DETAILING:Architectural detailing contributes to the visual appeal of a home and the community. It helps to create a desirable human scale and a perception of a quality well designed home. MATERIALS AND COLOR: The use of a variety of materials and color contributes to the sense of diversity of housing stock in the community. 4-3-100 Urban Design for CV Zone 1.Site Design and Building Location BUILDING LOCATION AND ORIENTATION: To ensure visibility of businesses and to establish active, lively uses along sidewalks and pedestrian pathways. To organize buildings for pedestrian use and so that natural light is available to other structures and open space. To ensure an appropriate transition between buildings, parking areas, and other land uses,and increase privacy for residential uses. BUILDING ENTRIES: To make building entrances convenient to locate and easy to access, and ensure that building entries further the pedestrian nature of the fronting sidewalk and the urban character of the district. TRANSITION TO SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT. To shape redevelopment projects so that the character and value of Renton's long-established, existing neighborhoods are preserved. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 19 SERVICE ELEMENT LOCATION AND DESIGN: To reduce the potential negative impacts of service elements (i.e., waste receptacles, loading docks) by locating service and loading areas away from pedestrian areas, and screening them from view in high visibility areas. GATEWAYS: To distinguish gateways as primary entrances to districts or to the City, special design features and architectural elements at gateways should be provided. While gateways should be distinctive within the context of the district, they should also be compatible with the district inform and scale. 2. Parking and Vehicular Access SURFACE PARKING: Intent: To maintain active pedestrian environments along streets by placing parking lots primarily in back of buildings. VEHICULAR ACCESS: Intent: To maintain a contiguous and uninterrupted sidewalk by minimizing, consolidating, and/or eliminating vehicular access off streets. 3. Pedestrian Environment PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION: To create a network of linkages for pedestrians, that is safe and convenient, enhances the pedestrian environment, and provides a way for pedestrians to walk from one location to another without having to drive their vehicle. PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES: To create attractive spaces that unify the building and street environments and are inviting and comfortable for pedestrians; and provide publicly accessible areas that function for a variety of year-round activities, under typical seasonal weather conditions. 4. Recreation Areas and Common Open Space RECREATION AREAS AND COMMON OPEN SPACE: To ensure that areas for both passive and active recreation are available to residents, workers, and visitors and that these areas are of sufficient size for the intended activity and in convenient locations. To create usable and inviting open space that is accessible to the public; and to promote pedestrian activity on streets particularly at street corners. S. Building Architectural Design BUILDING CHARACTER AND MASSING: To ensure that buildings are not bland and so that they appear to be at a human scale, as well as to ensure that all sides of a building which can be seen by the public are visually interesting. GROUND LEVEL DETAILS: To ensure that buildings are visually interesting and reinforce the intended human-scale character of the pedestrian environment; and ensure that all sides of a building within near or distant public view have visual interest. BUILDING ROOF LINES: To ensure that roof forms provide distinctive profiles and interest consistent with an urban project and contribute to the visual continuity of the district. BUILDING MATERIALS: To ensure high standards of quality and effective maintenance over time and encourage the use of materials that reduce the visual bulk of large buildings, as well as to encourage the use of materials that add visual interest to the neighborhood. 6.Signage In addition to the City's standard sign regulations, developments within Urban Design Districts C and D are also subject to the additional sign restrictions found in RMC 4-4- DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 20 100G, urban design sign area regulations. Modifications to the standard requirements found in RMC 4-4-100G are possible for those proposals that can comply with the Design District criteria found in RMC 4-3-100F, Modification of Minimum Standards. For proposals unable to meet the modification criteria, a variance is required. 7. Lighting To ensure safety and security; provide adequate lighting levels in pedestrian areas such as plazas, pedestrian walkways, parking areas, building entries, and other public places; and increase the visual attractiveness of the area at all times of the day and night. 1.0 FUTURE PERMITS Most immediately, the City is intending to consider a Master Plan per RMC 4-9-200. For each Master Plan site, a number of current and future permits are also anticipated. See Exhibit 12. Additionally, in association with the Master Plan approval, a conditional use permit to exceed height standards consistent with RMC 4-9-030 is proposed. Interpretations of cumulative density in light of the park area, and the Director's determination regarding parking for the Sunset Park site are also being addressed in association with the Master Plan. The Reevaluation and Addendum may lead to revisions of the ROD and Planned Action Ordinance. [Confirm following staff review of reevaluation and utilities analysis.] Other permits and approvals would follow such as lot line adjustments, right of way dedications and easements, phased / detailed site plans and associated design modifications where appropriate. Last, building and construction permits would be sought.

Master Plans: For master plan applications,the Comment noted. Administrator will evaluate compliance with the review criteria at a level of detail appropriate for master plans. Master plans will be evaluated for general compliance with the criteria and to ensure that nothing in the master plan will preclude development of a site plan in full compliance with the criteria. b.Site Plans: For site plan applications,the Administrator Comment noted. will analyze the plan in detail and evaluate compliance with the specific requirements discussed below. 3.Criteria:The Administrator must find a proposed project See below. to be in compliance with the following: a.Compliance and Consistency:Conformance with plans, See below. policies, regulations and approvals, including: i.Comprehensive Plan:The Comprehensive Plan, its The Master Plan promotes a mixed use redevelopment elements,goals,objectives,and policies,especially those with open space and civic amenities.The Master Plan of the applicable land use designation;the Community would advance the City's Center Village(CV)concept in the Design Element;and any applicable adopted Comprehensive Plan and zoning code. It would serve as an Neighborhood Plan; incentive for other redevelopment opportunities near the study area.Anticipated growth would help the City meet its 2031 housing and employment targets. It would fulfill the Sunset Area Community Investment Strategy. ii.Applicable land use regulations; The Master Plan proposed uses are allowed per the CV zone and R-14 zone.The Master Plan is inconsistent with maximum height limits of the CV zone in order to allow for a larger Sunset Park and a viable development;a conditional use permit is sought to ensure the overall intent of the CV zone and compatibility with surrounding development is upheld. On an individual site basis,some master plan blocks would exceed maximum density or lot coverage standards; however,looked at cumulatively as intended within the original site being conceptually planned(Sunset Terrace public housing site),the maximum density and lot coverage would not be exceeded. A parking interpretation is needed for the Park as a DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 23 Criteria Evaluation neighborhood facility where nonmotorized travel should predominate.A joint parking agreement is needed between sites H and I (Buildings A and B/Sites 7/8 and 9).

Conditional Use Permit Review Criteria Evaluation Criteria Evaluation 1.Consistency with Plans and Regulations The proposed use shall be compatible with the general Requests for exceeding the building height limits is goals,objectives,policies and standards of the consistent with the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Plan. Comprehensive Plan,the zoning regulations and any other When the proposed height is considered in context of the plans, programs, maps or ordinances of the City of Renton. entire redevelopment plan area the average height proposed for development is well below 60'. Sunset Terrace has been identified as an area where it is desirable to develop residential uses to a density greater than currently exists. 2.Appropriate Location The proposed location shall not result in the detrimental The Master Plan would introduce building heights of 5-6 overconcentration of a particular use within the City or stories along NE Sunset Boulevard, which would exceed within the immediate area of the proposed use.The the current maximum height allowed by zoning. This proposed location shall be suited for the proposed use. would increase the visual prominence of development in the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area, particularly given a.location Criteria: Proximity of arterial streets which the location of future buildings on Sites H, I,and J along NE have sufficient capacity to accommodate traffic generated Sunset Boulevard,which is ahigh-traffic street. by the development. Developments are encouraged to locate in areas served by transit. The Reevaluation Alternative would also, however, include a larger amount of park space in the Redevelopment Area, which would provide a substantial amenity to area DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 26 Criteria Evaluation residents and reduce the overall visual impression of height and bulk from viewers located further northward of the loop road. For park users, who would be closer to the proposed buildings, increased height could create a perception for park uses of being surrounded by buildings looming over them, depending on design treatments. There would be increased height and bulk from the perspective of pedestrians on NE Sunset Boulevard. Thus small adjustments to reduce height and bulk related to the increased height and intensity of the structures would reduce impacts. Current city design standards address some aspects of this through standards addressing building modulation and roofline variation; additional mitigation is recommended to incorporate shallow upper story setbacks. Increased height at the southern end of the Redevelopment Area would have the potential to slightly increase the length of shadows cast on the interior park to the north. However, reconfiguration of the park to increase its size as part of the updated Master Site Plan process would ameliorate this to some degree, and the application of design standards such as upper story setbacks would further reduce shading impact from increased building height. The "rim" of the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment area is particularly well suited to the greater density/height proposed as it is immediately adjacent to Sunset Boulevard, a major arterial and State highway capable of accommodating the traffic generated by the proposed project. See also the transportation analysis in the Reevaluation and Addendum which indicated relatively little difference among the Master Plan and previously reviewed alternatives in terms of traffic. 3. Effect on Adjacent Properties The proposed use at the proposed location shall not result See Table Section 2.The subject sites exceeding height are in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent along SR 900. The zones facing these lots are not single property. family or multifamily zoned, but rather commercially a.Effect on Adjacent or Abutting Properties:Building zoned. heights shall not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent and abutting property.When a building in excess of the maximum height is proposed adjacent to or abutting a lot designated R-1, R-4, R-8, R-10, R-14 or RM-F,then the setbacks shall be equivalent to the requirements of the adjacent residential zone if the setback standards exceed the requirements of the Commercial Zone. 4.Compatibility The proposed use shall be compatible with the scale and The proposed development would be among the taller character of the neighborhood. developments in the vicinity until such time as other properties will be redeveloped to meet the more intensive vision of the CV zone. DISCUSSION DRAFT June 10, 2014 27 Criteria Evaluation S.Parking Adequate parking is,or will be made,available. A parking interpretation is needed for the Park as a neighborhood facility where nonmotorized travel should predominate. A joint parking agreement is needed between sites H and I (Buildings A and B/Sites 7/8 and 9). 6.Traffic The use shall ensure safe movement for vehicles and See the transportation analysis in the Reevaluation and pedestrians and shall mitigate potential effects on the Addendum which indicated relatively little difference surrounding area. among the Master Plan and previously reviewed alternatives in terms of traffic. 7.Noise, Light and Glare Potential noise, light and glare impacts from the proposed The Master Plan includes an arrangement of buildings use shall be evaluated and mitigated. around the Sunset Park to reduce noise.
