agreed that careful review would be made of future applications for proper access.
Mr. Wells reported that a valid 180-day building permit had been issued for the current
grading of the site in June, 1977 for the preload operation. Mr. Smith indicated that
the current building permit would have been attached to the previous permit of
September, 1976.

SA-061-77
5. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the King County Hydraulics Division of

ORDERED THIS 12th day of September, 1977.
L. Rick Beeler
Land Use Hearing Examiner
TRANSMITTED THIS 12th day of September, 1977 by Affidavit of Mailing to the
parties of record:
Duane A. Wells
TRANSMITTED THIS 12th day of September, 1977 to the following:
Mayor Charles J. Delaurenti
Council President George J. Perry
Councilman Richard M. Stredicke
Warren C. Gonnason, Public Works Director
Gordon Y. Ericksen, Planning Director
Ron Nelson, Building Division
Gerard M. Shellan, City Attorney
Pursuant to Title IV, Section 3015 of the City's Code, request for reconsideration
must be filed in writing on or before September 26, 1977. Any aggrieved person
feeling'that the .,decision of the Examiner is based on erroneous procedure, errors of
law or fact, error in judgment, or the discovery of new evidence which could not be
reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written request for review by
the Examiner within fourteen (14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This
request shall set forth the specific errors relied upon by such appellant, and the
Examiner may, after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Section 3016, which requires
that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk accompanying a filing fee of $25.00

12. The proposed site plan, Exhibit #3, indicates that the northwest and southeast
corner of the building protrude into the parking lot without protection ,via curbs
and/or landscaping.
13. The site lies at the southern border of the Earlington Manufacturing Park. Along
the southern border of the site is S.W. Grady Way. No access is provided to
S.W. Grady Way.
14. This application represents the initial occurrence of development in this general
area abutting the north side of S.W. Grady Way and utilizing the Puget Sound Power
and Light Company right-of-way for parking. That portion of the utility right-of-
way is included in the rezone; the applicant has purchased the right-of-way and
granted the utility an easement. A precedent may be established in this
application for similar future development in this area along the north side of
S.W. Grady Way.
15. The majority of. the site is currently zoned M-P.
16. Final grading of the site must meet the requirements of Chapter 23, Mining,
Excavation and Grading Ordinance.
17. Outside waste receptacles are not featured in the site plan, Exhibit #3.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed rezone and site plan generally comply with, the goals and objectives
of the Comprehensive Plan, and conditions are required for complete compliance
Section 4-3014(B) ) .
2. This site clearly is physically oriented to the Earlington Industrial Park (M-P)
to the north and across S.W. 10th Street. Access will be to S.W. 10th Street and
not S.W. Grady Way. The building grade elevation will be several feet below
S.W. Grady Way. These physical factors make this site somewhat unique from other
similarly located properties along the north side of S.W. Grady Way.
3. Per Resolution No. 1923, 2% of the site must be devoted to wildlife habitat
landscaping. Such landscaping must be located on site and should incorporate
landscaping in the adjacent public right-of-way. The Planning Department files
contain guidelines for implementing the landscaping requirements of the Soil
Conservation Service which the applicant and Planning Department can satisfactorily
use to develop a final landscape plan for that department's approval.
4. A Flood Zone Control Permit is essential from the King County Hydraulics Division
which will utilize the Examiner's decision in its review of the permit.
5. Those portions of the building which protrude into paved parking and access areas
should be protected by landscaping and/or curbing. A final site plan incorporating
this revision can be satisfactorily reviewed and approved by the Planning Department.
6. This site lies within the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan area, and
consequently, the final drainage plan should adhere to the applicable goals and
objectives.
RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the record, testimony and evidence submitted in the public
hearing, it is recommended by the Examiner to the City Council that the requested
application be approved subject to:
1. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department of a final
landscape plan in compliance with Resolution No. 1923 and incorporating the adjacent
public right-of-ways.
2. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Public Works Department of a final
storm water drainage plan and final. utilities and off-site improvements plan.
3. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department and Public Works
Department of the slope stabilization to be compatible with and complement the
aforementioned final landscape plan.
4. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department of the final
site plan incorporating protection from vehicles of the corners of the buildings
protruding into parking and access areas.

The Examiner inquired about proposed landscaping. The applicant indicated that a
landscape plan had been pending on the issuance of the Planning Department report on
the, application.
In response to the Examiner's inquiry about jutting building corners, Mr. Wells reported
that an architectural review would be made of the matter.
Regarding Item 6 of Exhibit #1, Mr. Smith directed Mr. Wells to coordinate the matter
with representatives of the Utilities Division, and reported that a:comment regarding
a 12-inch water main had been made on Exhibit #3 •by the Utilities Division at the time
of application review. The Examiner labeled the duplicate site plan with Utilities
Division comments as Exhibit #4.
The Examiner asked for further comments in support or opposition of the application.
There was no response.
The Examiner asked Mr. Smith for additions, corrections or modifications to Exhibit #1.
Mr. Smith added a comment relating to previous discussion regarding corners of
buildings to be reviewed by an architect.
The Examiner noted that a change of policy by public utilities had occurred with.
purchase of the property easement from Puget Sound Power and Light Company. Mr. Smith
indicated that policies of public utilities were currently more flexible, although
the subject application represented the first construction project within the
easement. Discussion ensued regarding future access problems on Grady Way and it was
agreed that careful review would be made of future applications for proper access.
Mr. Wells reported that a. valid 180-day building permit had been issued for the current
grading of the site in June, 1977 for the preload operation. Mr. Smith indicated that
the current building permit would have been attached to the previous permit of
September, 1976.
The Examiner asked for further testimony. Since there was none, the hearing on
Item #R-072-77 and SA-061-77 was closed by the Examiner at 4:15 p.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter,
the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
1. The request is for approval of a reclassification from G to M-P and site plan
approval of an office/laboratory facility at the southwest corner of Lind Avenue
S.W. and S.W. 10th Street.
2. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, applicable policies
and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter,
and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this refort by reference
as set forth in full therein.
3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental
Policy Act of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.21.Ca , 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 required setbacks, lot coverage and height
requirements of Section 4-730(M-P) and Chapter 22 (Parking and Loading) of
Title IV and a Board of Adjustment variance of August 18, 1977.
8. A setback variance was approved by the Board of Adjustment on August 18, 1977 to
allow the building to be constructed 52 feet from the right-of-way of S.W. Grady Way.
9. The King County Hydraulics Division has not approved the Flood Zone Control Permit
for the proposal.
10. Grading of the site has begun in connection with an existing building permit for
another building previously intended for the site.
11. 'A landscape plan was not submitted to satisfy zoning requirements, and Soil

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL.
APPLICANT: Duane A. Wells and Val Bain FILE NO. R-072-77
SA-061-77

Land Use Hearing Examiner
TRANSMITTED THIS 12th day of September, 1977 by Affidavit of Mailing to the
parties of record:
Duane A. Wells
TRANSMITTED THIS 12th day of September, 1977 to the following:
Mayor Charles J. Delaurenti
Council President George J. Perry
Councilman Richard M. Stredicke
Warren C. Gonnason, Public Works Director
Gordon Y. Ericksen, Planning Director
Ron Nelson, Building Division
Gerard M. Shellan, City Attorney
Pursuant to Title IV, Section 3015 of the City's Code, request for reconsideration
must be filed in writing on or before September 26, 1977. Any aggrieved person
feeling that the decision of the Examiner is based on erroneous procedure, errors of
law or fact, error in judgment, or the discovery of new evidence which could not be
reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written request for review by
the Examiner within fourteen (14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This
request shall set forth the specific errors relied upon by such appellant, and the
Examiner may, after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Section 3016, which requires
that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk accompanying a filing fee of $25.00
and meeting other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available
for inspection in the City Clerk's office, first floor of City Hall, or same may be
purchased at cost in said office.
R-072-77 page Three
SA-061-77
12. The proposed site plan, Exhibit #3, indicates that the northwest and southeast
corner of the building protrude into the parking lot without protection via curbs
and/or landscaping.
13. The site lies at the southern border of the Earlington Manufacturing Park. Along
the southern border of the site is S.W. Grady Way. No access is provided to
S.W. Grady Way.
14. This application represents the initial occurrence of development in this general
area abutting the north side of S.W. Grady Way and utilizing the Puget Sound Power
and Light Company right-of-way for parking. That portion of the utility right-of-
way is included in the rezone; the applicant has purchased the right-of-way and
granted the utility an easement. A precedent may be established in this
application for similar future development in this area along the north side of
S.W. Grady Way.
15. The majority of the site is currently zoned M-P.
16. Final grading of the site must meet the requirements of Chapter 23, Mining,
Excavation and Grading Ordinance.
17. Outside waste receptacles are not featured in the site plan, Exhibit #3.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed rezone and site plan generally comply with the goals and objectives
of the Comprehensive Plan, and conditions are required for complete compliance
Section 4-3014(B) ) .
2. This site clearly is physically oriented to the Earlington Industrial Park (M-P)
to the north and across S.W. 10th Street. Access will be to S.W. 10th Street and
not S.W. Grady Way. The building grade elevation will be several feet below
S.W. Grady Way. These physical factors make this site somewhat unique from other
similarly located properties along the north side of S.W. Grady Way.
3. Per Resolution No. 1923, 2% of the site must •be devoted to wildlife habitat
landscaping. Such landscaping must be located on site and should incorporate
landscaping in the adjacent public right-of-way. The Planning Department files
contain guidelines for implementing the landscaping requirements of the Soil
Conservation Service which the applicant and Planning Department can satisfactorily
use to develop a final landscape plan for that department's approval.
4. A Flood Zone Control Permit is essential from the King County Hydraulics Division
which will utilize the Examiner's decision in its review of the permit.
5. Those portions of the building which protrude into paved parking and access areas
should be protected by landscaping and/or curbing. A final site plan incorporating
this revision, can be satisfactorily reviewed and approved by the Planning Department.
6. This site lies within the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan area, and
consequently, the final drainage plan should adhere to the applicable goals and
objectives.
RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the record, testimony and evidence submitted in the public
hearing, it is recommended by the Examiner to the City Council that the requested
application be approved subject to:
1. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department of a final
landscape plan in compliance with Resolution No. 1923 and incorporating the adjacent
public right-of-ways.
2. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Public Works Department of a final
storm water drainage plan and final utilities and off-site improvements plan.
3. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department and Public Works
Department of the slope stabilization to be compatible with and complement the
aforementioned final landscape plan.
4. Submittal by the applicant and approval by the Planning Department of the final
site plan incorporating protection from vehicles of the corners of the buildings
protruding, into parking and access areas.

right-of-way and the power line right-of-way and rezoned, a portion
of the subject site on December 17 , 1976. by Ordinance No . 3083 to
Manufacturing Park District and received site plan approval at that
time for a proposed office/warehouse complex . Mr. Wells has revised
his proposed use for the subject site which resulted in the proposed
rezone and site plan approval request .
E. PHYSICAL BACKGORUND:
1 . Topography : The site has an elevation of approximately equal
to that of S. W. 10th Street , however , both Lind Avenue S . W. and
Grady Way S. W. are at a higher elevation than the subject site ,
a certain amount of cutting and grading in conjunction with the
proposal will be required .
2 . Soils : Urban Land (Ur ) .
3 . Vegetation : A large portion of the subject site has been
previously cleared as part of the previous proposed development
project for the site . Typical vegetation in the old railroad
right-of-way area extending west of the subject site is primarily
scrub grasses w.it,h mixed , deciduous trees and 'bushes . It is
difficult to tell at this time whether -or not the deciduous trees
are located on the subject site ,., if so they should be retained
as much as possible in the site development plan .
4. Wildlife : The existing vegetation that remains on the site
provides suitable habitat for birds and small mammals .
5. Water : Surface water and streams are not apparent on the subject
site , however , the elevation of the subject site is such that
proper drainage will have to be provided as part of the site
development.
6. Land Use : Subject site is presently undeveloped . There is an
existing power line corridor located on the southerly portion
of the subject site for approximately the southerly fifty feet
thereof, however , the property is owned by the applicant and part
of the subject development the power company retains easement for
th& power line corridor . Just south of the power lines there
exists an area of public , right-'of-way to the improved portion of
Grady Way. The area within the old railroad right-of-way extending
west of the subject site is presently undeveloped . The area south
of the subject site is within the original Earlington Manufacturing
Park District and is presently developed to manufacturing park
standards . East of the subject site across Lind Avenue S . W. the
old railroad right-of-way is also presently undeveloped .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS :
The general area is in a transitional nature from undeveloped and
single family residence property to commercial and industrial uses .
G. PUBLIC SERVICES:
1 . Water and Sewer : A 12 inch water main exists along S . W. 10th
Street and an 8 inch sewer main exists along Lind Avenue S . W.
A large Metro sewer interceptor line is located along S . W. 10th
Street. An 18 inch storm sewer exists along S . W. Grady Way .

RE : DUANE A. WELLS AND VAL BAIN , REZONE , #R-072-77 AND SITE PLAN
APPROVAL , #SA-061-77
O. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1 . T•he subject rezone request is consistent with the Comprehensive.
Land Use Plan , existing zoning , and existing uses , within the
general area . The proposed use is , a permitted use within the
M-P , (Manufacturing Park) zone .
2. Proper utilities are available to the site. Any development of
the site must conform to City of Renton utilities and off-site
improvement requirements .
3 . The subject site , parcels 1 and 2 surround an existing M-P ,
Manufacturing Park zone (rezoned December 17 , 1976 , Ordinance
No. 3083 ) and are intended to be incorporated , into the overall
development plan for the area . The proposed use is an office/
laboratory facility together with related parking ( 120 spaces
required ; 120 spaces provided ) and landscaping . The use is
permitted within the M-P District.
4. Parcel 2 ( the southerly parcel ) was purchased from Puget Power
and contains an easement for existing overhead electrical trans-
mission lines . According to the agreement with Puget Power this
area cannot be utilized for permanent structures . Parking and
landscaping are proposed for this area . Parcel 1 is also pro-
posed for parking and landscaping as part of the total development.
5. A variance from the 60 foot setback requirement was granted. by
the Board of Adjustment on August 18 , 1977 , subject to certain
conditions including landscaping the City right-of-way between
the subject' s southerly property line and the edge of the existing
street improvements . A similar variance request for a 58 foot
setback along the northerly portion of the site was denied by the
Board of Adjustment. A copy of that decision is attached .
6. The applicant has indicated that he will provide additional land-
scaping adjacent to the northerly facade of the proposed
structure. The Planning Department encourages this proposal to
assist in reducing the visual expanse of the proposed building .
7 . A detailed landscape plan must be provided at the time of building
permit application submittal . Such plan should consist of a
suitable combination of trees , shrubs , and groundcover to provide
screening , buffering , aesthetic quality , and wildlife habitat as
per the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan , Objectives , pages
5 through 7 , and Resolution No . 1923 It appears that with the
planting areas shown on the plans and the Board of Adjustment ' s
conditions that the 2% site landscaping requirement of Resolution
No . 1923 will be met.
8 . The proposed building meets the height and site coverage limits
of the M-P zone.
9. The applicant has stated that he owns the additional property
west of the subject site to Powell Avenue S . W. along the abandoned
Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of-Way. Future similar
development by the applicant is anticipated . Rezoning o.f this
area will be necessary as well as subdivision if the property is
separately sold .
10. Dumpster locations have created some visual and locational
problems within the Earlington Manufacturing Park. Proper site
screening and location should be required pursuant to the Green
River Comprehensive Plan , Objectives , acid Section 4-3010(B ) 1 .

w• Introduction The State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, Chapter 43.21C, RCW, requires
S;, 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
s proposal is such a major action.
Please answer the following questions as completely as .you can with the information
C• 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 does not apply, just answer it "no" and continue on to the
next question.

right-of-way and the power line right-of-way and rezoned a portion
of the subject site on December 17 , 1976 by Ordinance No . 3083 to
Manufacturing Park District and received site plan approval at that
time for a proposed office/warehouse complex . Mr. ' Wells', 'has revised
his proposed use for the subject site. which resulted in the proposed
rezone and site plan approval request .
E. PHYSICAL BACKGORUND:
1 . Topography : The site has an elevation of approximately equal
to that of S. W. 10th Street , however , both Lind Avenue S . W. and
Grady Way S. W. are at a higher elevation than the subject site ,
a certain amount of cutting and grading in conjunction with the
proposal will be required .
2 . Soils : Urban Land (Ur) .
3. Vegetation : A large portion of the subject site has been
previously cleared as part of the previous proposed development
project for the site. Typical vegetation in the old railroad
right-of-way area extending west of the subject site is primarily
scrub grasses with mixed deciduous trees and bushes . It is
difficult to tell at this time whether or not the deciduous trees
are located on the subject site, if so they should be retained
as much as possible in the site development plan .
4. Wildlife : The existing vegetation that remains on the site
provides suitable habitat for birds and small mammals .
5. Water : Surface water and streams are not apparent on the subject
site , however , the elevation of the subject site is such that
proper drainage will have to be provided as part of the site
development.
6. Land Use : Subject site is presently undeveloped . There is an
existing power line corridor located on the southerly portion
of the subject site for approximately the southerly fifty feet
thereof, however , the property is owned by the applicant and part
of the subject development the power company retains easement for
the. power line corridor . Just south of the power lines there
exists an area of public right-of-way to the improved portion of
Grady Way. The area within the old railroad right-of-way extending
west of the subject site is presently undeveloped . The area south
of the subject site is within the original Earlington Manufacturing
Park District and is presently developed to manufacturing park
standards . East of the subject site across Lind Avenue S . W. the
old railroad right-of-way is also presently undeveloped .
F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
The general area is in a transitional nature from undeveloped and
single family residence property to commercial and industrial uses .
G. PUBLIC SERVICES:
1 . Water and Sewer : A 12 inch water main exists along S . W. 10th
Street an.d an 8 inch sewer main exists along Lind Avenue S . W.
A large Metro sewer interceptor line is located along S . W. 10th
Street. An 18 inch storm sewer exists along S . W. Grady Way .

APPROVAL , #SA-061-77
0® PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1 . The subject rezone request is consistent with the Comprehensive.
Land Use Plan , existing zoning , and existing uses , within the
general area . The proposed use is a permitted use within the
M-P , (Manufacturing Park) zone .
2 . Proper utilities are available to the site. Any development of
the site must conform to City of Renton utilities and off-site
improvement requirements .
3 . The subject site , parcels 1 and 2 surround an existing M-P ,
Manufacturing Park zone (rezoned December 17 , 1976 , Ordinance
No. 3083 ) and are intended to be incorporated into the overall
development plan for the area . The proposed use is an office/
laboratory facility together with related parking ( 120 spaces
required ; 120 spaces provided ) and landscaping . The use is
permitted within the M-P District.
4. Parcel 2 (the southerly parcel ) was purchased from Puget Power
and contains an easement for existing overhead electrical trans-
Mission lines . ' According to the agreement with Puget. Power this
area cannot be utilized for permanent. structures . Parking and
landscaping are proposed for this area . Parcel 1 is also pro-
posed for parking and landscaping as part of the total development .
5 . A variance from the 60 foot setback requirement was granted by
the Board of Adjustment on August ,18 , 1977 , subject to certain
conditions including landscaping the City right-of-way between
the subject' s southerly property line and the edge of the existing
street improvements . A similar variance request fora 58 foot
setback along the northerly portion of the site was denied by the
Board of Adjustment. •A copy 'of that decision is attached .
6. The applicant has indicated that he will provide additional land-
scaping adjacent to the northerly facade of the proposed
structure. The Planning Department encourages this proposal to
assist in reducing the visual expanse of the proposed building .
7.. A detailed landscape plan must be provided at the time of building
permit application submittal . Such plan should consist of a
suitable combination of trees , shrubs , and groundcover to provide
screening , buffering , aesthetic quality , and wildlife habitat as
per the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan , Objectives , pages
5 through 7 , and Resolution No . 1923 It appears that with the
planting areas shown on the plans and the Board of Adjustment ' s
conditions that the 2% site landscaping requirement of Resolution
No . 1923 will be met.
8 . The proposed building meets the height and site coverage limits
of the M-P zone .
9. The applicant has stated that he owns the additional property
west of the subject site to Powell Avenue S . W. along the abandoned
Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of-Way. Future similar
development by the applicant is anticipated . Rezoning of this
area will be necessary as well as subdivision if the property is
separately sold .
10. Dumpster locations have created some visual and locational
problems within the Earlington Manufacturing Park. Proper site
screening and location should be required pursuant to the Green
River Comprehensive Plan , Objectives , and Section 4-3010(6) 1 .

11 . Suitable storm water retention and oil /water separation, facilities
should be provided as per Public Works Department approval .
12 . The elevation andwtopograph,y of the subject site will require a
certain amount of cutting and grading as part of the on-site
construction . Proper slopes should be maintained (no greater
than 2 : 1 ) and properly landscaped . Certain areas may need a
rock retention wall .
