CITY OF RENTON
REFORT AND RECOMMENDATION ,
APPLICANT: Superior Fast Freight FILE NO. SA-202-78
LOCPTION: South side of S.W. 34th Street approximately 550 feet west of
East Valley Road.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant seeks site approval of a facility for receiving
freight by rail and distribution locally by truck.
SUMMARY OF ACTION: Planning Department Recommendation: Approval with conditions.
Hearing Examiner Decision: Approval with conditions.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received by the
REPORT: Examiner on July 19, 1978.
PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining
available information on file with the application, and
field checking the property and surrounding area, the
Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as
follows:
The hearing was opened on July 25, 1978 at 10: 55 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the
Renton Municipal Building.
Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed
the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
Michael Smith, Planning Department, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following
additional exhibits into the record:
Exhibit #2: Boundary Map and Topographical Survey
Exhibit #3: Site Plan with Generalized Landscaping, 1 :60 scale
Exhibit #4: Building Elevations
Exhibit #5: Landscape Plan (2 sheets)
Exhibit #6: Site Drainage Plan with staff comments
Mr. Smith reviewed Engineering Division comments denoted on Exhibit #6 as follows: 1) Off-
site improvements (except sidewalks) on S.W. 34th Street are to be installed under L.I.D.
302; 2) S.W. 29th Street to be improved by Glacier Park Company; and 3) Developer to
install sidewalks on S.W. 34th Street as part of this project. He advised that sidewalks
would be required as part of site development and provision of landscaping within the
planter strips would be subject to Planning Department approval. Mr. Smith also indicated
that revisions to the elevations for the catch basin outlets had been noted by staff
on Exhibit #6, and advised a possible requirement by the Fire Department for installation
of fire hydrants extending north and south within the site due to the proposed length of
the facility.
The Examiner asked the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1. Responding was:
Bernard A. Carlin, Architect
Room 801, 1411 4th Avenue Building
Seattle, WA 98101
Mr. Carlin indicated his concurrence in the report. He reported the intent of the
company to provide a suitable development which is compatible with the environment and
surrounding businesses in the area.
The Examiner requested testimony in support or opposition to the request. There was no
respon,;e. The Examiner referenced Section P.1 of Exhibit #1 regarding development of
S.W. 33th Street and S.W. 29th Street to full city standards per approval of the Public
Works Department and requested a completion date of the proposed project. Mr. Smith
advised that three developmental elements would determine the timing of the project which
1
frwI V I
SA-20: Page Two
included coordination of the L.I.D. , the proposed plat and improvements within the
proposed plat, jand the proposed site plan development. The Examiner noted the
possibility ofsuch completion occurring in a relatively short period of time, either
during or after the preload operation. Mr. Smith indicated that possibility and noted
the project's contingency upon the progress of the Lind Avenue S.W. project under a
separate L.I.D.
The Examiner i dicated that the final plat for Orillia Industrial Park Division No. 1
contained a st'pulation that S.W. 34th Street extend to the East Valley Road, and
therefore the ind Avenue S.W. L.I.D. project should not delay the subject development.
Mr. Smith advi ed that S.W. 29th Street would extend to Lind Avenue S.W. , although access
was not propos d to that street in the subject request.
The Examiner i quired if all conditions of the final plat including certification have
been completed. Mr. Smith indicated that with the exception of one remaining detail,
statement of utility easements within the plat, all conditions have been met. He noted
receipt of landscape plans in accordance with the requirement for submittal and subsequent
review by the Planning Department, and felt that review could be allowed to continue
following filing of the plat.
The Examiner .equested further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on File No.
SA-202-78 was closed by the Examiner at 11:40 a.m.
FINDINGS, CON' LUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the
Examiner now akes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The request is for approval of the site plan for a freight distribution facility in
the plat •f Orillia Industrial Park Division No. 1.
2. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, applicable policies
and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter,
is uncon ested, and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report
by refer.nce as set forth in full therein.
3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental
Policy A.t of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.21.C. , a Declaration of Non-Significance
has been issued for the subject proposal by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official.
4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the
impact of this development and no adverse comment was expressed.
5. There was no opposition to the proposal expressed.
6. All existing utilities are available and in close proximity.
7. The proposal is compatible with the setback, floor area, lot coverage and height
requirements of Section 4-730 (M-P) and the parking requirements of Chapter 22
Parking and Loading) of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General Ordinances.
8. The proposed landscaping and fencing conform to Section 4-730.030.5. A screening
fence will be placed on the periphery of the site. Landscaping will supplement
this fence as well as being located in the interior of the site.
9. Railroad tracks, and railcar, truck loading and unloading facilities do not
interfere with off-site parking areas (Section 4-730.040.8.) .
10. Outside storage of materials or refuse dumpsters were not proposed.
11. Improvement of S.W. 34th Street will occur via L.I.D. 302. Glacier Park Company
will improve S.W. 29th Street. Access to the facility is by S .W. 34th Street.
A landscaped berm and planting area is located at the north end of the property
to serve as physical separation of the facility from S.W. 29th Street. This area
is proposed to be constructed in Phase II of the development. The improvements
in S.W. 34th Street do not include sidewalks which staff recommends that the
applicant install.
12. The development is divided into two phases. Phase I consists of all of the proposal
except the north approximate 100 feet. On the site plan (Exhibit #5.b. ) this 100-
foot ar a is to be landscaped and includes an earth berm and approximately a
60-foot by 110-foot unspecified paved area. The intent. of this paved area and the
timing f completion of Phase II were not submitted.
i
SA-202-Page Three
13. The final plat of Orillia Industrial Park Division No. 1 has not been completely
signed by all city departments and has not been filed with King County.
14. Storm water drainage plans are being reviewed by the Public Works Department.
15. Staff has reviewed and found acceptable the plan for the preload of the site for
the proposed development.
16. A Flood Zone Control Permit is required from the King County Hydraulics Division
and the State Department of Ecology.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposal appears to conform to the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive
Plan for the Green River Valley. The development will enhance the image of the
City of Renton. " (Goals, page 4, Comprehensive Plan, Green River Valley, June,
1976) . Landscaping of the proposal will enhance wildlife habitat (page 4, Ibid) .
Adjacent development and view from adjacent areas will not be adversely impacted
page 4, Ibid) . A viable economic climate will be provided for industry in the
area (page 4, Ibid) . Detrimental impacts will be diminished (page 4, Ibid) . The
land use will be appropriate (page 5, Objectives, Comprehensive Plan, Green River
Valley, June, 1976) . Suitable wildlife habitat will be provided (page 5, Ibid,
and Resolution No. 1923) . Appropriate peripheral buffering will be provided
page 5, Ibid) . Building design will be appropriate (page 5, Ibid) . Adequate
parking with landscaping will be provided (page 6, Ibid) . "Large interior
landscaping islands. . . " are provided (page 7, Ibid) . Landscaping will be spread
throughout the site to produce a pleasing environment for the use (page 7, Ibid) .
Phase II will include appropriate landscaping (page 8, Ibid) . The ". . .site layout. . ."
and architecture will be compatible with the ". . .design standards for the Valley. "
page 8, Ibid) . The roofs will minimize impact upon adjacent hillside areas
page 8, Ibid) .
2. Ihase II of the development includes the required perimeter landscaping and
Ecreening on the site. While no timetable was provided for this phase, it appears
appropriate that at least the perimeter landscaping and screening fence be
implemented with Phase I. Not all of this proposed landscaping seems necessary
for inclusion in Phase I; however, the Planning Department should review and approve
the landscaping and screening to conform to that on the other portions of the site.
3. The applicant did not express disagreement with installing a sidewalk along his
property line abutting the right-of-way of S.W. 34th Street. This sidewalk is an
appropriate link in the pedestrian walkway system featured in the Orillia
Industrial Park Division No. 1 development.
4. Until the final plat of Orillia Industrial Park Division No. 1 is completed (all
city signatures on the final plat linen) and recorded with King County, the approval
of the site permit for the proposed development should be conditional to this
completion and recording. To the best of the Examiner's knowledge the final plat
is very close to being completed and recorded, thereby causing very little, if any,
d,alay to this application.
5. Building elevations (Exhibit #4) lacked specific detail of color and surface
treatment of the tilt-up concrete slab construction. Staff recommended that
these features conform to the aforementioned goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan, Green River Valley (Conclusion No. 1) . These considerations
l:Le without the jurisdiction of the Examiner in the site plan review per
Section 4-730.040.9, but may fall within the normal staff review of the building
permit.
6. A deferral has not been requested from the landscaping installation and maintenance
requirements of Section 4-2204.8.D (Parking and Loading) . Staff recommended a
performance bond to ensure maintenance; however, sufficient authority exists in
this section for the Planning Department to exercise control of the landscaping
installation and maintenance program. Nothing was entered into the record to
indicate that a problem existed in this area to warrant special attention by the
Examiner or that staff could not administer through the Parking and Loading
Ordinance. Therefore, the Examiner presumes that the landscaping plan will be
implemented and maintained per Exhibit #5 per the detailed review and approval of
the Planning Department.
DECISION:
Based upon the testimony, record, findings and conclusions, it is the Examiner's decision
to approve the submitted site plan (Exhibits #3 and #5) subject to the following being
SA-20: Page Four
implemented prior to the issuance of a building permit:
1. Detailed landscape plan and maintenance program which shall include the northern
portion of the site (designated in Phase II, Exhibit #3) per Conclusion No. 2 as
approved by the Planning Department.
2. Installation of a sidewalk along the subject site in the public right-of-way abutting
S.W. 3491 Street per the requirements and approval of the Public Works Department.
3. Storm waster drainage plan approval by the Public Works Department.
4. Approval of the State Flood Zone Control Permit by the King County Division of
Hydraulics and the State Department of Ecology.
5. Compliance with all other applicable city regulations per approval of the Planning
Department.
6. Completion of signing of the final plat of Orillia Industrial Park Division No. 1
and recording with King County per direction of the Planning Department.

COMMENTS :
Introduction the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , Chapter 43.21C, RCW, requires
all state and local governmental agencies to consider environmental values both for their
own actions and when licensing private proposals . The Act also requires that an EIS be
prepared for all major actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment.
The purpose of this checklist is to help the agencies involved determine whether or not a
proposal is such a major action.
Please answer the following questions as completely as you can with the information
presently available to you. Where explanations of your answers are required, or where
you believe an explanation would be helpful to government decision makers , include your
explanation in the space provided, or use additional pages if necessary. You should
include references to any reports or studies of which you are aware and which are rele-
vant to the answers you provide . Complete answers to these questions now will help all
agencies involved with your proposal to undertake the required environmental review with-
out unnecessary delay.
The following questions apply to your total proposal , not just to the license for which
you are currently applying or the proposal for which approval is sought. Your answers
should include the impacts which will be caused by your proposal when it is completed,
even though completion may not occur until sometime in the future. This will allow all
of the agencies which will be involved to complete their environmental review now, with-
out duplicating paperwork in the future.
NOTE : This is a standard form being used by all state and local agencies in the State
of Washington for various types of proposals . Many of the questions may not apply to
your proposal . If a question doe: r,ot apply, just answer it no and continue on to the
next question.
