SUBJECT: Residential Property
Proposed Easement located parcel#; 212305-9040
Renton, Washington
SITE DESCRIPTION
General Description
The subject property is a 6.76-Acre residential site, which is currently zoned RC. It is
located in a portion of the SE Quarter of Section 21, Township 23 North, Range 5 East,
Willamette Meridian in King County, Washington. This site is generally located north
of Tiffany Park Division 4, north of SE Royal Hills Drive in Renton, Washington.
Location and Access
The main access to the property is by foot from the north end of SE Royal Hills Drive.
The site does not have public water or public sewer available to the site. Electricity and
telephone service is available in the area, but not on site.
C-2286 APPRAISAL GROUP OF THE NORTHWEST LLP
Paize 2
Shape and Size
The subject site according to the County records is 6.76 acres in size. The site is a long
narrows ite, which is sixty feet wide. It is an irregularly shaped site. The proposed
easement is 20 feet wide and 1,400 feet long, along the existing road easement.
Surrounding Properties
There are residential properties surrounding the subject property. Specifically, there is
an apartment building to the southwest and single-family residences to the south of the
proposed easement. To the north, across the Cedar River are single-family residences.
To the east and west is the Bonneville Power Administration Transmission Line Right -
of -Way Easement.
Topography
The site is level on the southerly portion and extends in the northwesterly direction and
fairly level to Pierce Avenue SE. Then the site slopes downward as the direction
changes to the northeast. The site is level through the Bonneville power line easement
and then the site slopes steeply (10%-40%) downward towards the Cedar River.
Soils and Drainage
A soil survey was not provided, but according to the U.S. Soils Conservation Service
(SCS), the onsite soils consist primarily of Alderwood and Kitsap soils, very steep
(AkF). This mapping unit is about 50 percent Alderwood gravelly sandy loam and 25
percent Kitsap silt loam. Slopes are 25 to 70 percent.
Drainage and permeability vary. Runoff is rapid to very rapid, and the erosion hazard is
severe to very severe. The slippage potential is severe. These soils are used for timber.
(AkF-Soils Survey of King County Area Washington, November 1973).
Wetlands and Buffer
There are no wetlands on the site, and according to the December 1990 King County
Sensitive Areas Folio, no wetlands are inventoried on the site or the proposed easement
area.
Identification of Possible Flood Hazards
The subject property is located in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Flood Map Panel 53033CO983 F and shown as in Zone X, outside the 500-year flood
area. However, as the site approaches The Cedar River it is within the flood plain and
Shoreline Management Act.
Easements and Restrictions
The appraisers did not have access to the title report. However, there are apparent
easements for major power lines across portions of the property. There are two
additional easements within the pipeline. One easement is for City of Seattle Metro
C-2286 APPRAISAL GROUP OF THE NORTHWEST LLP
3
department and the City of Renton. The proposed easement is along a portion of the
City of Seattle water pipeline right of way easement.
Utilities
Public utilities to the site include overhead electricity and telephone service. Sewer and
water are available from the neighboring developments.
Assessments and Taxes
For the year 2002, the King County Assessor's records show the subject property's
assessed values as follows:
Land Assessed Value $50,000
Since the site is owned by a municipality, the taxes for 2002 for this parcel are $5.00.
Zoning
The subject property is located in RC zoning. The Resource Conservation Zone (RC)
has been established to provide a low -density residential zone, which endeavors to
conserve critical areas and maintain agricultural activities. This zone promotes uses
that are compatible with the functions and values of designated critical areas and allows
for c ontinued p roduction o f f ood and a gricultural p roducts. N o in inimum d ensity is
required.
The Resource Conservation Zone is also intended to provide separation between areas
of more intense urban uses; encourage or preserve low -density residential uses; reduce
the intensity of uses in accordance with the extent of environmentally sensitive areas
such as floodplains, wetlands and streams, aquifers, wildlife habitat, steep slopes, and
other geologically hazardous areas; and allow for hobby farming to commence or
continue.
The proposed easement is located within the RC zone.
PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL
The purpose of this appraisal is to provide the appraisers' estimate of the just compensation
for a road easement across the subject property as of the effective date.
INTENDED USE OF REPORT
It is our understanding that the appraisal will be used for estimating the value of the
proposed easement for the purposes of purchasing a road easement right for the Cedar River
Spawning Channel.

APPRAISAL DEVELOPMENT AND REPORTING PROCESS
In preparing this appraisal, the appraisers inspected the subject site and gathered information
about the subject's neighborhood and comparable land sales, and analyzed the information
gathered in applying the sales comparison approach.
Only the sales comparison approach was appropriate in valuing the subject property.
To develop the opinion of value, the appraisers performed a complete, summary appraisal, as
defined by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Specifically, "Across
The Fence" (ATF) methodology was used to determine the market value of the subject
property.
Across The Fence Method is a land valuation method typically used to estimate the value of
a real estate corridor, which includes pipeline rights of way. The price or value of land
adjacent to the corridor (i.e., "across the fence") is considered for the valuation. Other
considerations include corridor factors and usage factors.
This Summary Appraisal Report sets forth only the appraisers' conclusions. Supporting
documentation is retained in the appraisers' files.
REAL ESTATE APPRAISED
The site is 6.76 acres (294,465 square feet) and is located in Renton, Washington.
C-2286 APPRAISAL GROUP OF THE NORTHWEST LLP
PaL-e 5
HIGHEST AND BEST USE
As Vacant: Since the site is very steep, the highest and best use of the property is the
current use, as a water pipeline easement.
As Improved: The highest and best use is the current use.
ESTIMATED MARKETING AND EXPOSURE TIME
Approximately 12 to 18 months.
SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
The most common method for valuing land, and the preferred method when adequate sales
data are available, is the sales comparison approach. To estimate the value of the subject
property by the sales comparison approach, a search was conducted for sales, listings, or
offerings of properties, which are similar and comparable to the subject property. The unit of
comparison is price per acreage. Each sale has been discussed in greater detail, and a land
value conclusion is derived based on a price per acre. There were no appropriate sales in
Renton; therefore, an expanded search was made to competing areas. Three sales were
considered in valuing the subject property. They are listed in the following table and
discussed in detail later in this report.

SE 2761h Street, east of 238`h Street, Maple Valley
This sale is a rectangular parcel, with a single-family residence on the site at the time of sale. The
sale did not close until the engineering had been approved. Since the time of sale, the site has been
cleared and a street has been established, with utilities extended to all sites. It was purchased to
subdivide and develop 28 lots. The development is two blocks east of the Maple Valley -Black
Diamond Highway just south of Four Corners and several blocks west of the Elk's Run Golf Course.
The developer indicated that they were able to develop all 28 potential lots.
Downward adjustments were made for access, shape, topography and entitlements. Furthermore,
since this site can be developed for residential lots, another downward adjustment was made. After
the adjustments, the indicated sale price of the subject property is $45,000 per acre.

This sale is an irregularly shaped site containing 218,000 square feet of area. The northeast border
is SE 243`d Place, which is a sloping road down to the northwest, with an additional slope down
from the development to the northeast. The site is covered with trees and natural vegetation. Even
with the R-12 zoning, the site is expected to yield only 35 single-family residential sites. This parcel
will be developed with the adjoining parcel, which was purchased in June 1999. The buyer now has
preliminary approval, which will include putting in a public park, as well as a yield of only 35 lots
instead of a theoretical 60 lots.
Downward adjustments were made for access, shape, and topography. In addition, a downward
adjustment was made for development ability and an upward adjustment for appreciation. After the
adjustments, the indicated sale price of the subject property is $44,000 per acre.

LAND VALUE CONCLUSIONS
After adjustments, comparable land sales indicate a value for the subject property of $30,000
to $40,000 per acre. All the comparable sales are weighed equally and the following land
value has been concluded:
6.76 acres @ $35,000/acre = $240,000 (R)
DETERMINATION OF JUST COMPENSATION FOR PROPOSED EASEMENT
The proposed Cedar River Spawning Channel Replacement road easement will be 28,000
square feet or an area 20 feet wide and 1,400 feet in length. The easement will be along the
existing Seattle water line easement. The purpose of this easement is to create an easement
road to service a spawning channel for aquatic life such as salmon, trout, etc.
The easement will not adversely affect the use of this site or property immediately adjacent
to the proposed easement area and use the existing road easement, currently in place. Since
the site is not suitable for residential development, the proposed easement will not affect the
development potential of the site.
Just compensation is calculated at 20% of the market value area within the easement
corridor. Therefore;
0.64 Acres (28,000 square feet) @ $35,000/acre X 20% = $4,480
FINAL VALUE ESTIMATE
It is concluded that the evidence best supports a market value estimate for the subject
property as of January 2, 2003 of:
FOUR THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED EIGHTY DOLLARS
$4,480

any and all awards, settlements, or cost, regardless of outcome, Appraisal Group of the
Northwest and its associate appraisers and employees will be held completely harmless.
