1. Project Description/Background
The proposal is to subdivide, by means of the administrative short subdivision process, 1 vacant lot
into 3 lots. The project site is located in the Highlands of Renton. (Exhibit 2) This property, and
those surrounding it in an area of about 140 acres, were initially developed as [World] War [Two]
Defense Worker Housing, funded by the federal government, and administered by the Renton
Housing Authority (RHA). The 1941-43 housing was intended to be constructed on a temporary
basis. Following WWII, the RHA sold the properties to individuals. A 1943-era duplex was on the
site until recently removed.

The property is located in an area zoned Residential 10, which allows higher density and smaller
lots than more traditional single-family zones. (Exhibit 3) The density would be increased from 6.52
dwelling units per net acre (du/a) to the proposed 9.78 du/a. The R-10 zoning implements the
objectives and policies of the Residential Medium Density Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element.
There are no known critical areas on the property. As previously mentioned, the property has been
developed since 1943.
The topography of the site slopes slightly downward from east to west.
The subdivision of the existing lot would result in 3 lots of (from west to east) with the following
sizes:
Lot Size (sf}
Lot 1 4,437
Lot 2 4,527
Lot 3 4,666
Total 13,360
There are no private streets or easements proposed. Each lot would be accessed directly from NE
a'" Street by private driveways. (Exhibit 4)
A landscape plan has been submitted indicating that required landscaping would be provided at the
front of each lot. (Exhibit 5)
The east side of the property has an abutting, unpaved public walkway. (Exhibit 6)
2. Environmental Review
Except when located on lands covered by water or with critical areas, short plats are exempt from
SEPA Environmental Review pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6)(a).

4. Staff Review Comments
Representatives from various City departments have reviewed the application materials to identify
and address issues raised by the proposed development. These comments are contained in the
official file (Exhibit 1 ), and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate
sections of this report and the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report.

5. Consistency with Short Plat Criteria
Approval of a short plat is based on an evaluation using the following short plat criteria:
a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Designation
Purpose Statement: The Residential Medium Density designation is intended to create the
opportunity for neighborhoods that offer a variety of lot sizes, housing, and ownership options.
Residential Medium Density neighborhoods should include a variety of unit types designed to
incorporate features from both single-family and multi-family developments, support cost-
efficient housing, facilitate infill development, encourage use of transit service, and promote the
efficient use of urban services and infrastructure.
Objective LU-II: Residential Medium Density development should be urban in form and fit into
existing residential neighborhoods if developed as infill projects.
The proposed single-family, residential infill project would fit into the existing residential
neighborhood, but the "form" of the project is more suburban than urban.
Policy LU-171. Buildings should front the street rather than be organized around interior
courtyards or parking areas.
The new single-family structures would front on the existing street.
Policy LU-174. Single-family, detached building types in the Residential Medium Density
designation should have maximum lot coverage by the primary structure of fifty (50) percent.
The Renton Municipal Code limits lot coverage by buildings in the R-10 to 70 percent. Coverage
of the lot by proposed structures would be reviewed prior to issuance of building permits.
The following objectives and policies from the Community Design Element apply for the
development of new lots in "established neighborhoods"
Objective CD-C: Promote re-investment in and upgrade of existing neighborhoods through
redevelopment of small, underutilized parcels, modification and alteration of older housing stock,
and improvements to streets and sidewalks to increase property values.
The proposed project would develop property that, with a density of 6. 52 du/a, is currently
underutilized. The property would be redeveloped with 3 new single-family houses to a density
of 9. 78 du/a.
Policy CD-10. Sidewalks or walking paths should be provided along streets in established
neighborhoods, where sidewalks have not been previously constructed. Sidewalk width
should be ample to safely and comfortably accommodate pedestrian traffic and, where
practical, match existing sidewalks.
The development of the proposed new lots would require frontage improvements that meet
City of Renton standards if they are not currently in place, unless waived by the "fee in lieu of
improvements" process.
Policy CD-12. Infill development, defined as new short plats of nine or fewer lots, should be
encouraged in order to add variety, updated housing stock, and new vitality to neighborhoods.
Admin SHPL Report 07-087.doc
City of Renton P/B/PW Department
JASON SHORT PLAT
REPORT AND DECISION DATED OCTOBER 23, 2007
The proposed development would accomplish this policy goal.
Administrative Land Use Action
LUA07-087, SHPL-A
Page 6 of 12
Policy CD-13. Infill development should be reflective of the existing character of established
neighborhoods even when designed using different architectural styles, and /or responding to
more urban setbacks, height or lot requirements. Infill development should draw on elements
of existing development such as placement of structures, vegetation, and location of entries
and walkways, to reflect the site planning and scale of existing areas.
The applicant will be asked to consider this policy when designing the structures.
Policy CD-14. Architecture of new structures in established areas should be visually
compatible with other structures on the site and with adjacent development.
Visual compatibility should be evaluated using the following criteria:
a. Where there are differences in height (e.g., new two-story development adjacent to
single-story structures), the architecture of the new structure should include details
and elements of design such as window treatment, roof type, entries, or porches that
reduce the visual mass of the structure.
b. Garages, whether attached or detached, should be constructed using the same
pattern of development established in the vicinity.
c. Structures should have entries, windows, and doors located to maintain privacy in
neighboring yards and buildings.
The applicant will be asked to consider this policy when designing the structures.
The following objectives and policies from the Community Design Element relate to landscaping:
Objective CD-K: Site plans for new development projects for all uses, including residential
subdivisions, should include landscape plans.
A landscape plan has been submitted. Installation of landscaping is a code requirement.
Policy CD-45. Existing mature vegetation and distinctive trees should be retained and protected
in developments.
Trees and vegetation would be removed from the lots. However, all pervious areas, except rear
yards, are required to be landscaped and additional trees, both replacement trees and other
required trees, would be planted, as per City of Renton code. This would compensate for the
loss of vegetation to a certain extent.
b) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation
The subject site is designated Residential -10 Dwelling Units per Net Acre (R-10) on the City
of Renton Zoning Map. The R-10 zone was established for medium-density residential
development that would provide a mix of residential styles including detached dwellings or
semi-attached dwellings on small lots, attached townhouses, and small-scale attached flats. It
is intended to implement the Medium Density Land Use Comprehensive Plan designation.
Development in the zone is intended to increase opportunities for detached and semi-attached
single family dwellings as a percent of the housing stock, as well as allow some small-scale

attached housing choices and to create high-quality infill development that increases density
while maintaining the single family character of the existing neighborhood. Allowable base
densities range from 4 to 1 O dwelling units per net acre. The zone serves as a transition to
higher density multi-family zones.
Density: The maximum allowed density in the R-10 zone is 10.0 dwelling units per net acre
(minimum density requirements do not apply for properties less than 0.5 acre in size). Net
density is calculated after the deduction of sensitive areas, areas intended for public rights-of-
way, and private access easements.
There would be no deductions required for this short plat. The proposed plat would have a net
density of 9.78 dwelling units per net acre (3 lots/ 0.31 acre= 9.78 du/a), which is within the
density range permitted for the R-1 Ozone. This is at the high end of the allowable range in
the R-10 zone, which is preferred by the City in order to achieve the highest efficiency of land
use.
An additional living unit, however, would result in a project that exceeded the maximum density
allowed. Staff recommends that a restrictive covenant be recorded that limits the project to
one (1) dwelling unit per lot, for the 3 lot project, unless the development standards for the
zone are changed in the future.
Lot Dimensions: The minimum lot size permitted in the R-10 zone for single-family lots is
3,000 sf. A minimum width of 30 feet is required for interior lots and lot depth is required to be
a minimum of 55 feet. The proposed lots would range in size from 4,437 sf to 4,666 sf. The
average lot size would be 4,543 sf.
All proposed lots would meet or exceed the minimum lot size and dimension requirements.
Setbacks: The required setbacks for the R-10 zone are 20 feet in front, 5 feet along interior
side yards, and 15 feet for rear yards.
Setbacks shown on the preliminary plat plan meet these requirements.
Building Standards: The R-1 Ozone allows one residential structure per lot, which may consist
of detached, semi-attached, townhouse, or flats.
Each of the proposed lots would support the construction of one detached unit. Accessory
structures are permitted at a maximum number of two per lot at 720 sf each, or one per lot at
1,000 sf in size.
The existing structure has been removed from the property.
Building height in the R-10 zone is limited to 2 stories and 30 feet for primary structures and
15 feet for detached accessory structures.
Compliance with this building standard would be verified prior to the issuance of building
permits for each individual structure.
Maximum building coverage is limited to 35 percent of the lot area or 2,500 sf, whichever is
greater, for lots 5,000 sf and greater in size.

Compliance with this building standard would be verified prior to the issuance of building
permits for each individual structure.
Parking: Each detached dwelling unit is required to provide two off-street parking spaces per
unit.
The proposed site layout appears to be adequately sized for the provision of the required
parking. However, verification of two off-street parking spaces would be necessary at the time
of building permit review.
c) Compliance with Subdivision Regulations
Streets: Street improvements, including curb, gutter, and sidewalk would be required along
NE 8th Street. The existing frontage does not meet City of Renton standards. Streetlights
would not be required for this 3 lot short plat.
All new electrical, phone and cable services to the plat must be undergrounded. Construction
of these franchise utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton public works
inspector prior to recording of the short plat.
The proposed short plat is anticipated to generate additional traffic on the City's street system.
In order to mitigate transportation impacts, a Transportation Mitigation Fee based on $75.00
per new average daily trip attributed to the project. The new lots are expected to generate
approximately 9.57 new average weekday trips each. The fee for the proposed short plat is
estimated at $1,435.50 ($75.00 x 9.57 trips x 2 lots = $1,435.50) and is payable prior to the
recording of the Final Short Plat.
Blocks: The proposed Short Plat does not create new blocks.
Lot Standards: The size, shape, orientation, and arrangement of the proposed lots must
comply with the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations and the development standards
of the R-1 O zone. All lots exceed the minimum size and dimension requirements.
The lots appear to contain adequate buildable areas for the construction of suitable single-
familyresidences when taking setbacks and lot coverage requirements into consideration.
These requirements will be reviewed at the time of building permit application for the new
houses.
The lots are rectangular in shape and aligned in an urban pattern that is consistent with other
lots in the immediate vicinity, as well as generally with the city as a whole. The lot orientation
would be with the front of the structure facing NE s'h Street.
d) Reasonableness of Proposed Boundaries
Access: All lots in a short plat must have access to a public street. All lots would front on NE
81h Street and have access from that street. With lots at 40 feet wide, there would be adequate
area for driveways.
Topography: The site slopes very gradually from east to west at a slope of less than 0.5
percent.
Relationship to Existing Uses: The properties to the north and east are zoned Residential
8, those to the west and south are R-10. One of the original 1943 duplexes is located to the
west (and on the subject property). Newer multi-family (duplex) units are on the north. A

single-family house dating from 1963 is to the east and a 2-story, 6-unit apartment building is
abutting on the south.
A public walkway has existed abutting the east property line since the original 1940s platting of
the area. Staff recommends, for public safety, that a condition be required that fencing along
the east property line, coincident with the public walkway, be either no taller than 3.5 feet in
height if a solid fence or must be transparent if taller than 3.5 feet, to prevent a "tunnel" effect
and provide sight lines to and from the public walkway.
e) Availability and Impact on Public Services (Timeliness)
Police and Fire: Police and Fire Prevention Bureau staffs indicate that sufficient resources
exist to furnish services to the proposed development.
A Fire Mitigation Fee, based on $488.00 per new single-family lot is recommended in order to
mitigate the proposal's potential impacts to City emergency services. The fee is payable prior
to the recording of the Final Short Plat. For this plat the estimated fee would be $976.00.
Schools: According to the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the City of Renton Land
Use Element (January 16, 1992), the City of Renton has a student generation factor of 0.44
students per single-family residential dwelling. Based on the student generation factor, the
proposed short plat could result in a single new student (0.44 X 2 new lots = 0.88) to the local
schools. Renton School District has indicated it can accommodate additional students
generated by this proposal at Highlands Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School, or Renton
High School.
Surface Water: There are existing storm water drainage systems currently serving the site.
The Surface Water System Development Charge is $759 per new dwelling unit. This fee is
due with the construction permit.
Water: The proposed project is within the service area for the City of Renton water system.
There is an 8-inch water main within NE 81
" Street. The building is located in the 565 water
pressure zone. The site is within Aquifer Protection Area -Zone 2. Fire flow available to the
site is over 1,000 gpm. Static water pressure is approximately 95 psi.
Sanitary Sewer: There is an 8-inch sewer main available to serve the new lots. Each lot
would require a new side sewer connection prior to recording the Final Plat.
The Sewer System Development Charge is $1,017 per new single-family residence. This fee
is due with the construction permit.
I. Findings:
Having reviewed the written record in the matter, the City now enters the following:
1. Request: The applicant has requested Administrative Short Plat Approval for the Jason
Short Plat, File No. LUA-07-087, SHPL-A.
2. Application: The applicant's submittal complies with the requirements for information for a
short plat. The applicant's short plat plan and other project drawings are contained within the
official land use file.
3. Comprehensive Plan: The subject proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
designations of the Residential Medium Density (RMD) land use designation.

ADVISORY NOTES TO APPLICANT
The following notes are supplemental information provided in conjunction with the administrative land use action.
Because these notes are provided as information only, they are not subject to the appeal process for the land use actions.
Planning
1. Commercial, multi-family, new single family and other nonresidential construction activities shall be restricted to the
hours between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Work on Saturdays shall be restricted to the hours
between 9:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. No work shall be permitted on Sundays.
Fire
1. All plats are required by City code to provide a fire hydrant with a minimum fire flow requirement of 1.000 GPM
within 300 feet of any proposed single-family structure. This distance is measured along a travel route. If the
proposed single-family structures exceed 3,600 sq. ft., the minimum fire flow increases to 1,500 GPM and requires
two hydrants within 300 feet of the structures. Additional fire hydrants may be required as a part of this project to
meet this criterion. The fire hydrants must meet all current City of Renton standards.
2. Street addresses shall be visible from a public street.
Plan Review -Storm/Surface Water
1. A Surface Water System Development Charge of $759.00 per single-family lot is payable prior to final plat
recording.
Plan Review -Streets
1. Frontage improvements that meet requirements of the City of Renton are required along NE 8th Street, unless a
"fee in lieu of improvements" is paid prior to recording of the Final Plat.
2. All new electrical, phone and cable services and lines must be undergrounded. The construction of these franchise
utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton public works inspector prior to recording the plat.
Plan Review -Sewer
1. Sewer System Development Charges (SDC) are $1,017.00 per new unit. These fees are collected at the time a
construction permit is issued and prior to recording the final plat.
2. Minimum slope for side sewers shall be 2%. Dual side sewers are not allowed. The existing side sewer may need
to be relocated to better serve the short plat and new building foundations.
Plan Review -General
1. All required utility, drainage and street improvements will require separate plan submittals prepared according to
City of Renton drafting standards by a licensed Civil Engineer.
2. Permit application must include an itemized cost estimate for these improvements. The fee for review and
inspection of these improvements is 5% of the first $100,000 of the estimated construction costs; 4% of anything
over $100,000, but less than $200,000, and 3% of anything over $200,000. Half of the fee must be paid upon
application for building and construction permits, and the remainder when the construction permit is issued. There
may be additional fees for water service related expenses. See drafting standards.
3. All plans shall be tied to a minimum of two of the City of Renton horizontal and vertical control network.
