Short Plat 084-77 W-085-77 LOCATION: Property located on the south side of N.E. 12th Street between Pierce Avenue N.E. and Queen Avenue N.E. extending southward to approximately N.E. llth Street. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of a four-lot short plat for sale of three resulting lots approximately 7,980 square feet each to Mr. Joe Boehme for construction of three single family residences. Applicant also requests waiver of the off-site improvement requirements on Queen Avenue N.E. and deferment of the sidewalk requirements along Pierce Avenue N.E. 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 October 11, 1977. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding areas, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on October 18, 1977, at 9:40 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were sworn. 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: King County Assessor's Map (by reference: Exhibit #2 in File No. R-083-77) Exhibit #3: Plat Map In response to the Examiner's inquiry regarding requirements for improvements, Mr. Smith reported that while an indefinite deferral had been recommended on Queen Avenue N.E., improvements including curbs, gutters and sidewalks were recommended along Pierce Avenue N.E. The Examiner asked Mr. Smith to explain a recommendation from the Traffic Engineering Division for a 60-foot width on Pierce Avenue N.E. as opposed to the 50-foot width recommended by the Planning Department. Mr. Smith advised that the 50-foot width complies with requirements in the Subdivision Ordinance, although both 50-foot and 60-foot wide streets exist in adjacent areas. In response to the Examiner's inquiry regarding supportive data for requirements to retain existing vegetation, Mr. Smith referred to Section 9-1108.19.B. of the Subdivision Ordinance. The Examiner asked the applicants if they concurred in Exhibit #1. Responding was: Joe Boehme 2607 Meadow Avenue N. Renton, WA 98055 Mr. Boehme questioned Planning Department recommendations regarding deferral of improvements on the east side of Lots B, C, and D on Queen Avenue N.E. and asked if the applicant would be required to participate in an LID for installation of utilities as well as curbs, gutters and sidewalks even though the subject property would not benefit from such utilities. The Examiner called a 15-minute recess at 10:00 a.m. to enable a representative from the Utilities Division to respond to Mr. Boehme's inquiry. Short Plat 084-77 Page Two W-085-77 The meeting was reconvened at 10:15 a.m. The Examiner asked the representative from the Utilities Division to testify. Responding was: Ron Olsen Utilities Division The Examiner reivewed the matter with Mr. Olsen and asked if the applicant would be required to contribute to an LID for utilities. Mr. Olsen advised that since the subject property would not benefit from such an LID, the applicant would not be required to participate. The Examiner asked the other applicant for comments. Responding was: Ray Ball, Sr. 3607 N.E. 12th Street Renton, WA 98055 Mr. Ball stated benefits of granting approval of the short plat request including increased revenue and improved appearance of the subject property. He also indicated that heavy trucks had been utilizing Pierce Avenue N.E. for many years without hazard and future widening of the roadway would provide area for on-street parking. The Examiner asked for testimony in favor of the application. There was no response. The Examiner asked for testimony in opposition to the application. Responding was: Norman Abrahamson 3408 N.E. 17th Street Renton, WA 98055 Mr. Abrahamson indicated his agreement with the Planning Department recommendation for installation of sidewalks, but advised the Examiner that Section E.5 of Exhibit #1 regarding surface water on the site was inaccurate because of the existence of standing water on the roadway on the east side of Lots B, C, and D due to the topography of the land. He stressed that a requirement for storm drainage facilities should be imposed. Mr. Smith advised that the Engineering Division in accordance with Section 9-1108.15 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires storm water retention facilities in all new developments and would be included as part of the plat improvements to the site. He stated that the provision would be added to Exhibit #1 for purposes of clarification. In response to Mr. Abrahamson's inquiry regarding location of the facilities, the Examiner reviewed alternatives for storm water retention on the site. Mr. Boehme and Mr. Ball questioned time limits, costs, and location of facilities and the Examiner advised that the Utilities Division should be contacted to review the matter and answer any questions the applicants may have. Responding was: Mrs. Charles Shoaf 1104 Queen Avenue N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Shoaf reported previous problems with standing water and indicated concern regarding availability of utility lines to Queen Avenue N.E. for future connections. The Examiner asked Mrs. Shoaf if she was agreeable to participation in an LID if the applicant was willing to grant an easement between Lots B, C, or D for utilities purposes to allow connection of lines to Pierce Avenue N.E. Mrs. Shoaf indicated her willingness to participate. The Examiner reviewed other alternatives for connection and suggested that the matter be discussed with the Utilities Division for solution. Mr. Boehme objected to the alternative connection to Pierce Avenue N.E. and felt that lines should be connected to N.E. 12th Street along Queen Avenue N.E. The Examiner indicated that the alternative was a possibility but may not be economically feasible and required additional research. Mr. Abrahamson objected to possible difficulties in meeting city requirements for utility lines, installation of fire hydrants, curbs and gutters when negotiating agreements for utility easements on the subject site. The Examiner restated his suggestion to review the matter with the Utilities Division to resolve problems and answer questions relating to the future project. Mr. Smith submitted a clarification to the Planning Department report and comments from the Utilities Division regarding differences between utility improvements and street improvements. He reported that utilities had been installed by the applicant with the exception of Lot A which has not yet been platted and developed; however, street improvements should not be required by the applicant for both Queen Avenue N.E. and Short Plat 084-77 Page Three W-085-77 Pierce Avenue N.E., that Pierce Avenue would provide the main access roadway and would be required to be improved through the LID process. The Examiner asked Mr. Smith for additions, modifications or revisions to Exhibit #1. Mr. Smith indicated that the requirement for storm water retention facilities was the only addition to the report. He also encouraged residents to coordinate efforts to resolve problems regarding utilities and street improvements in the area. The Examiner asked for further comments. There was no response. He subsequently reviewed existing situations in the area regarding utilities and street improvements and apprised residents of alternatives for solution and suggested contacting the Utilities Division of the Public Works Department for additional information regarding procedures and costs. The hearing on Item #Short Plat 084-77 and W-085-77 was closed by the Examiner at 10:50 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION: FINDINGS: Lie LO The request is for approval of a four-lot short plat and waiver of off-site improvements. 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 report by reference as set forth in full therein. 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.C., a Declaration of Non-Significance has been issued for the subject proposal by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development and no adverse comment was expressed. All existing utilities are available and will be gained from Pierce Avenue N.E. The proposal is compatible with the lot coverage requirements of Section 4-706 of Title IV, Code of General Ordinances. Some substantial trees exist on the site which if retained represent an opportunity for enhancement of the site, neighborhood and community. Tax lot 205 ig not a part of this subdivision but is a separate entity having been subdivided previously and in existence so as to constitute a separate lot. Off-site improvements do not exist on Queen Avenue N.E. and are deficient on Pierce Avenue N.E. The applicant applied for a waiver of all off-site improvements on Queen Avenue N.E. since that right-of-way is not intended for the primary access. A deferment of only sidewalk improvements on Pierce Avenue N.E. was requested. Per Section 9-1105.6.A. the deferment request must be reviewed by the Board of Public Works. The Examiner according to Section 9-1105.6.B. must review the requested waiver. The Pierce Avenue N.E. right-of-way is currently 30 feet in width which is 20 feet deficient from the 50-foot right-of-way required in Section 9-1108.7, Table 1. An existing house on tax lot 205 prevents a full dedication of 50 feet of right-of-way adjacent to that lot. However, it seems a reasonable probability that at some future date this structure may be removed in order to accommodate subdivision of the lot in conjunction with Lot A of the proposal. The Queen Avenue N.E. right-of-way is currently 50 feet in width except at the northern portion (30 feet in width) intersecting N.E. 12th Street. However, the narrow lot on the east portion of the right-of-way is owned by the City of Renton and could possibly be used to comprise the required right-of-way of 50 feet. The Utilities Division testified that any benefit to the applicant would be assessed in an LID for improvements in this street. Vehicular circulation appears optimum in the connection of Pierce Avenue N.E. to N.E. llth Place, N.E. llth Street and N.E. 12th Street. On the other hand, Queen Avenue N.E. is a cul-de-sac with very limited potential for connection to another ils Short Plat 084-77 Page Four W-085-77 street, save a possible westerly connection to N.E. llth Street across the property to the south of the proposal. Storm water run-off has been observed collecting at the southeast portions of the proposed Lots C and D. CONCLUSIONS : le The proposed short plat conforms to the Comprehensive Plan and Section 4-706 and Chapter 11 of Title IV, Code of General Ordinances. Due to the potential aesthetic and storm water control impact of removal of the existing substantial trees, every effort should be made to preserve these trees. The applicant should control grading and clearing of the site in order to retain these trees and thereby enhance the proposed development. The Planning Department staff can be of assistance in this matter. Off-site improvements should be installed on Pierce Avenue N.E. since this street will serve as the primary access for the proposed lots. It is up to the Board of Public Works to decide if the installation of sidewalks should be deferred for up to two years. Improvements should begin at the southernmost point of the site and extend to the southernmost point of tax lot 205. Within this portion of Pierce Avenue N.E. the necessary 20-foot right-of-way should be dedicated to the city from Lot A. These improvements will form an acceptable circulation system in conjunction with N.E. llth Place, but will lack sufficient width for an acceptable connection to N.E. 12th Street and N.E. llth Street. At some future time these inadequacies will probably be overcome during subsequent development. Queen Avenue N.E. will probably serve as secondary access, or alley, for the development. Therefore, it appears less imperative for the applicant to install off-site improvements in this right-of-way which currently lacks all improvements. The applicant requested waiver of these off-site improvements especially since utilities to serve the proposal have been provided on Pierce Avenue N.E. It was explained to all in attendance that any LID for improvements on Queen Avenue N.E. could include curbs, gutters, storm sewers, sidewalks and utilities, however, the applicant could only be required to pay his fair share of the improvements shown to be to his benefit. In effect this would mean his participation in the costs of curbs, gutters, sidewalks, paving and possibly storm sewer. Since none of the improvements exist in the right-of-way (Section 9-1105.6.A.) and requiring the applicant to install such improvements (in effect on both the west and east portions of his single-lot-width property) would produce unreasonable economic obstfacles to development of his property (Section 9-1109.1.A.), the waiver should be granted. However, it is also reasonable to require that the applicant agree to participate on an equitable and fair share basis in the formation of an LID for improvements that are of his benefit. Resolution of the storm water runoff accumulation along the western portion of Queen Avenue N.E. will require coordination by the Public Works Department of the drainage plans of the applicant and the property owners on the east sdie of Queen Avenue N.E. Testimony from residents along Queen Avenue N.E. concerned the lack of utilities on that street to serve them. They were made aware that an LID would probably be necessary to install these utilities and that they may have to bear most, if not all, of the costs since the applicant has already paid for these utilities on Pierce Avenue N.E. and could not reasonably be required to pay for duplicate utilities. However, the future, ultimate configuration of Lot A is uncertain which may affect the prospect of an LID if the future lots need utilities from Queen Avenue N.E. Otherwise, the Examiner's jurisdiction prevented resolution of this dilemma of these residents. The suggestion was made by the Examiner to these residents to pursue with the applicant and property owner south of the proposal the possibility of acquiring a utility easement for connecting to the utilities on Pierce Avenue N.E. This suggestion will require coordination with the Public Works Department. Short Plat 084-77 Page Five W-085-77 DECISION: Based upon the record, testimony, findings and conclusions it is the Examiner's decision tor 1. Approve the short plat (Exhibit #3) subject to: a. Provision of all utilities per City of Renton requirements per approval of the Public Works Department. b. Dedication of 20 feet to the City of Renton along the west portion of Lot A to create a 50-foot right-of-way on Pierce Avenue N.E. c. Installation of off-site improvements per Chapter 11 on Pierce Avenue N.E. d. Approval of the storm water retention system by the Public Works Department. e. Retention of as many trees as possible through coordination of clearing and grading with the Planning Department. 2. Approve the waiver of off-site improvements on Queen Avenue N.E. subject to the applicant's agreement to participate in a local improvement district on an equitable and fair share basis for improvements of benefit to the applicants. This decision is furthermore subject to approval by the City Council of the rezone application No. R-083-77 and revision of the short plat (Exhibit #3) according to the aforementioned to include aforesaid Item No. 2 on revised Exhibit #3, per approval of the Planning Department.

Applicant also requests waiver of the off-site improvement requirements on Queen Avenue N.E. and deferment of the sidewalk requirements along Pierce Avenue N.E. B. GENERAL INFORMATION: 1. Owner of Record: RAY H. BALL, SR. 2. Applicant: RAY H. BALL, SR./JOE BOEHME 3. Location: Property located on the south side of N.E 12th Street between Pierce Avenue N.E. and Queen Avenue N.E. extending southward to approxi- mately N.E. llth Street. 4. Legal Description: A detailed legal description is available on file in the Renton Planning Department. 5. Size of Property: Approximately 1.29 acres. 6. Access: Via Pierce Avenue N.E. , N.E. 12th Street or Queen Avenue N.E. 7. Existing Zoning: | R-1, Residence Single family and GS-1, General Classification District. 8. Existing Zoning in R-1, Residence Single family; the Area: GS-1, General Classification District; G-7200, Single Family Residence District; R-3, Multiple Family Residence District. 9. Comprehensive Land Single Family Residential Use Plan: 10. Notification: The applicant was notified in writing of the hearing date. Notice was properly published in the Record- Chronicle and posted in four places on or near the site as required by City Ordinance. Notice was distri- buted to the surrounding property owners. GC. PURPOSE OF REQUEST: The purpose of the request is to obtain short plat approval for a sale of the southerly 210 feet of the subject site and develop- ment of that portion of the site into three single family PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING OF OCTOBER 18, 1977 PAGE TWO RE: SHORT PLAT, FILE NO. 084-77, AND WAIVER OF OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, FILE NO. W-085-77 residence lots. Mr. Joe Boehme proposes to construct single family residences on these three lots with primary access from Pierce Avenue N.E. The applicant feels that given the existing physical condition of Queen Avenue N.E. and the fact that it is not a full right-of-way and is a dead-ended street that a require- ment for full improvements along this street should be waived. The applicant has also requested a deferment of the sidewalk improvements along Pierce Avenue N.E. because there are no side- walks along this street in the general area. D. HISTORY/BACKGROUND: The subject site was annexed into the City on May 27, 1959 by Ordinance No. 1965. The southerly 240 feet of the subject site was rezoned to R-1 on August 11, 1971 by Ordinance No. 2650. Tne remaining northerly portion of the property has retained the GS-1 classification to date. However, the proposed short plat would leave Lot 'A' the northerly portion of the site with less square footage than the minimum lot size in the GS-1 zone. The applicant has proposed a rezone to R-1 to rectify this situation and such rezone application is presently being processed. E. PHYSICAL BACKGROUND: 1. Topography: The site is relatively level. 2. Soils: Arents, Alderwood material, (AmC). Runoff is medium, erosion hazard moderate to severe. This soil is used for urban development. 3. Vegetation: The subject site consists of lawn and some scrub grass and scattered with various deciduous and ever- green trees. 4. Wildlife: The existing vegetation on the site may provide some habitat for birds and small mammals. 5. Water: No existing streams or surface water are apparent on the subject site. 6. Land Use: There is an existing single family residence located on the northerly portion of the subject site designated as Lot 'A' on the plat map. The remaining southerly portion of the subject site is presently undeveloped. There are single family residences located along Pierce Avenue NwE. west of the subject site and approximately seven single family residences located along the east side of Queen Avenue N.E. The property immediately south of the subject site is owned by the Presbyterian Church and is partially developed for church use with the northerly portion of that site in an undeveloped state. F. NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS: The general area is characterized primarily by single family residential uses. G. PUBLIC SERVICES: 1. Water and Sewer: An existing six inch water main is located along Pierce Avenue N.E. An eight inch sewer main is located along Pierce Avenue N.E. An existing eight inch storm drain is located in Pierce Avenue at N.E. 11th Street. % PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING OF OCTOBER 18, 1977 PAGE THREE RE: SHORT PLAT, FILE NO. 084-77, AND WAIVER OF OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, FILE NO.

IMPACTS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS: Subdivision of the site and development on a portion of the site will disturb soil and vegetation and increase storm water run- off and have an effect on traffic and noise levels in the area. However, these can be mitigated by proper controls and procedures. KR. SOCIAL IMPACTS: The addition of several single family residences to the subject site will create additional social and interaction within the general neighborhood. L.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: Le The subject short plat proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning in the area. The northerly portion of the subject site Lot 'A' (32,364 square feet) would not be sufficient to meet the minimum lot size of the GS-1 zone (minimum 35,000 square feet). Therefore, the applicant has proposed a rezone of Lot 'A' to R-1. Any short plat approval must be subject to approval of the R-1l rezone. The proposed lot sizes are; Lot 'A' = 32,364 square feet, Lots B, C, and D = 7,980 square feet respectively, which exceed the minimum 7,200 square foot lot size of the R-1 zone. Lot 'A' is proposed to be retained by Mr. Ball. Pursuant to state law no further subdividing and develop- ment can occur on Lot 'A; within five years of the date of the subject short plat approval without the filing of a final plat. Depending on whether or not the existing single family residences are retained on Lot ‘A' and Tax Lot 205 an additional four or five lots could be created with Mr. Ball's remaining property north of proposed Lot "Bo ss Lots B, C, and D are proposed to be purchased by Mr. Joe Boehme, a building contractor, for the purpose of constructing single family residences. Adequate utilities are available to the subject site. Adequate access is available to the site from Pierce Avenue N.E., except in the area of the corner of N.E. lith Place and Pierce Avenue N.E. An additional twenty feet of right- of-way should be dedicated as part of the short plat which would extend the full 50 foot right-of-way from N.E. 11th Place to the southerly portion of Tax Lot 205 (not part of the short plat, but owned and described separately for many years by Mr. Ball). This right-of-way should be improved to the northerly line of N.E. 11th Place to facilitate better access, turning movements, traffic safety, and fire and emergency vehicle access at this corner. An existing house located on Tax Lot 205 restricts extension of the additional twenty feet of right-of-way along Pierce Avenue N.E. to N.E. 12th Street at this time. However, at such time as that portion of Mr. Ball's property is further subdivided and developed, additional right-of-way will be necessary. Queen Avenue N.E. is presently a dead-end gravel street, a portion of which is only 30 feet wide. It would not logically be considered a primary access for the proposed development. There is little chance of Queen Avenue N.E. ever extending further southward given the pattern of owner- ship and development in the area. However, because of its present condition, the number of residences that use it (approximately seven dwelling units), and the possibility as a secondary access to the subject site a full waiver should not be granted. The City Council has established a policy of permitting, upon reasonable justification, what can best be termed as an indefinite deferral of the off-site improvement requirements. This requires filing of restrictive covenants stipulating property owner agreement to participate in an LID or other City initiated action for such improve- ments, at any time in the future. PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING OF OCTOBER 18, 1977 PAGE FIVE RE: SHORT PLAT, FILE NO. 084-77, AND WAIVER OF OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, FILE NO. W-085-77 6. The improvements along the portions of Pierce Avenue N.E. and N.E. 12th Street abutting Lot 'A' which is not proposed for development at the present time (there is an existing Single family residence on Lot 'A'), should also be indefinitely deferred until an LID is formed or City action requires them, or when the property is further subdivided and developed (see Item #2 above). 7. The portion of Pierce Avenue N.E. adjacent to Lots B, C, and D, which are proposed to be developed for new single family residences, should be improved to full City standards. No reasonable justification exists to grant a waiver along this portion of the property. 8. The existing significant evergreen and deciduous trees located on the property should be preserved as much as possible and incorporated into the proposed development as per Section 9-1108, 19.B. P. PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval of the short plat subject to: 1. Provision of proper utilities per Public Works and Fire Department approval. 2. Provision of full City improvements along the portion of of Pierce Avenue N.E. abutting lots B, C, and D. This includes adequate street lighting per Traffic Engineering Division comments and approval. 3. Retention of as many significant evergreen and deciduous trees as possible and incorporation into development plans. No trees shall be removed or cut without prior Planning Department approval. 4. Dedication as part of plat an additional twenty feet of right-of-way along the east side of Pierce Avenue N.E. (approximately 111 feet) adjacent to Lot 'A‘ and south of Tax Lot 205. Location of the existing house on Tax Lot 205 makes it difficult to require additional right-of-way the entire length of Pierce Avenue N.E. to N.E. 12th Street. However, additional right-of-way and improvements will be required along this property at such time as it is further subdivided and developed. The Planning Department recommends denial of the waiver request and approval per City Council policy of an indefinite deferral of the off-site improvements along Queen Avenue N.E.; N.E. 12th Street, and the portion of Pierce Avenue N.E. abutting Lot 'A' north of N.E. llth Place. Full improvements should be installed along the east side of Pierce Avenue N.E. adjacent to Lots B,C, and D and the portion of Lot 'A' abutting Pierce Avenue N.E. from Lot 'B' northward to a point even with the northerly right- of-way line of N.E. llth Place.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: Ls. The subject short plat proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning in the area. The northerly portion of the subject site Lot 'A' (32,364 square feet) would not be sufficient to meet the minimum lot size of the GS-1 zone (minimum 35,000 square feet). Therefore, the applicant has proposed a rezone of Lot 'A' to R-1. Any short plat approval must be subject to approval of the R-1 rezone. The proposed lot sizes are; Lot 'A' = 32,364 square feet, Lots B, C, and D = 7,980 square feet respectively, which exceed the minimum 7,200 square foot lot size of the R-1 zone. Lot 'A' is proposed to be retained by Mr. Ball. Pursuant to state law no further subdividing and develop- ment can occur on Lot 'A; within five years of the date of the subject short plat approval without the filing of a final plat. Depending on whether or not the existing single family residences are retained on Lot '‘A' and Tax Lot 205 an additional four or five lots could be created with Mr. Ball's remaining property north of proposed Lot 'B'. Lots B, C, and D are proposed to be purchased by Mr. Joe Boehme, a building contractor, for the purpose of constructing single family residences. Adequate utilities are available to the subject site. Adequate access is available to the site from Pierce Avenue N.E., except in the area of the corner of N.E. 11th Place and Pierce Avenue N.E. An additional twenty feet of right- of-way should be dedicated as part of the short plat which would extend the full 50 foot right-of-way from N.E. 11th Place to the southerly portion of Tax Lot 205 (not part of the short plat, but owned and described separately for many years by Mr. Ball). This right-of-way should be improved to the northerly line of N.E. llth Place to facilitate better access, turning movements, traffic safety, and fire and emergency vehicle access at this corner. An existing house located on Tax Lot 205 restricts extension of the additional twenty feet of right-of-way along Pierce Avenue N.E. to N.E. 12th Street at this time. However, at such time as that portion of Mr. Ball's property is further subdivided and developed, additional right-of-way will be necessary. Queen Avenue N.E. is presently a dead-end gravel street, a portion of which is only 30 feet wide. It would not logically be considered a primary access for the proposed development. There is little chance of Queen Avenue N.E. ever extending further southward given the pattern of owner- ship and development in the area. However, because of its present condition, the number of residences that use it (approximately seven dwelling units), and the possibility as a secondary access to the subject site a full waiver should not be granted. The City Council has established a policy of permitting, upon reasonable justification, what can best be termed as an indefinite deferral of the off-site improvement requirements. This requires filing of restrictive covenants stipulating property owner agreement to participate in an LID or other City initiated action for such improve- ments, at any time in the future.

The improvements along the portions of Pierce Avenue N.E. and N.E. 12th Street abutting Lot 'A' which is not proposed for development at the present time (there is an existing single family residence on Lot 'A'), should also be indefinitely deferred until an LID is formed or City action requires them, or when the property is further subdivided and developed (see Item #2 above). 7. The portion of Pierce Avenue N.E. adjacent to Lots B, C, and D, which are proposed to be developed for new single family residences, should be improved to full City standards. No reasonable justification exists to grant a waiver along this portion of the property. 8. The existing significant evergreen and deciduous trees located on the property should be preserved as much as possible and incorporated into the proposed development as per Section 9-1108, 19.B. P. PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval of the short plat subject to: 1. Provision of proper utilities per Public Works and Fire Department approval. 2. Provision of full City improvements along the portion of of Pierce Avenue N.E. abutting lots B, C, and D. This includes adequate street lighting per Traffic Engineering Division comments and approval. 3. Retention of as many significant evergreen and deciduous trees as possible and incorporation into development plans. No trees shall be removed or cut without prior Planning Department approval. 4. Dedication as part of plat an additional twenty feet of right-of-way along the east side of Pierce Avenue N.E. (approximately 111 feet) adjacent to Lot ‘A‘' and south of Tax Lot 205. Location of the existing house on Tax Lot 205 makes it difficult to require additional right-of-way the entire length of Pierce Avenue N.E. to N.E. 12th Street. However, additional right-of-way and improvements will be required along this property at such time as it is further subdivided and developed. The Planning Department recommends denial of the waiver request and approval per City Council policy of an indefinite deferral of the off-site improvements along Queen Avenue N.E., N.E. 12th Street, and the portion of Pierce Avenue N.E. abutting Lot 'A' north of N.E. llth Place. Full improvements should be installed along the east side of Pierce Avenue N.E. adjacent to Lots B, C, and D and the portion of Lot 'A' abutting Pierce Avenue N.E. from Lot 'B' northward to a point even with the northerly right- of-way line of N.E. 11th Place. MEMORANDUM DATE: October 4, 1977 TO: Mike Smith, Planning Department FROM: Clint Morgan, Traffic Engineering SUBJECT: Short Plat File 084-77 (Ray Ball Property) In addition to curb, gutters, sidewalks and pavement recommended by the Design Engineering Division, we also recommend street lighting provisions as required by the plat ordinance. od CEM: ad The.
