The house is in need of extensive repair. Mr.. old house and build a new house in its place with access t rE, the same as now. The concern we have is that of the requirement of -.u8OF,7,b which requires vehicular alley access. We do not believe alley acres; is appropriate given the unique situation as explained in the justification. The lot is located in an older part of the city which has rather small houses built around 60 years ago. All of the houses on this block of Edmonds Ave NE have vehicular access from Edmonds Ave NE. None of the existing houses in this block fionting Edmonds Ave NE have access from the alley. All of the houses have a solid fence about 6 feet tall along the alley. The alley is about 3 to 4 feet above the grade of the subject lot Alley access to the garage will result in a 15% to 17 % grade from the alley to the garage floor using the required 20 foot sedadL Backing out into the alley going up such a grade will be dangerous since the existing fences will block view into the alley. Mr. Jacques wishes to use Edmonds Ave NE for vehicular access just like his neighbors. We are hereby requesting a modification of RMC4-4-080F,7,b to allow access to the garage of the proposed house to be from the street in front which is Edmonds Ave NE. The following address the decision criteria required by Section 4-9-250132 for granting a modification of city standards: a. The proposal. will implement the policies in the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan. 1. The house meets the goals of the Community Design Element by raising the aesthetic Quality of the City. The house will be higher quality residential housing then any house in the area. 2.0bjective CD -C will be met by an upgrade in an existing residential neighborhood 3.Policy C13-15 will be met, the residence will access the garage from the street like most of the houses along Edmonds Ave NE in this block. 4.Policy CD -18b will be met by having the garage access the same using the same pattern established in the vicinity. 17446 Mallard Cove Lane, Mt Vernon WA 98274. 360-422-5056_ jeliansonii!wavecable.com b. The proposal will meet the objectives and safety intended by the code. Allowing access from the street will provide a much safer access to the garage than requiring backing out up a 3 to 4 foot slope with solid fences blocking the view. c. The granting of the modification will not be injurious to other properties in the vicinity. All of the neighbors in this block of Edmonds Ave NE use Edmonds for access, not the alley. d. The proposal conforms to intent of the code by provided safe amass to the house while keeping in character with the neighborhood. e. Allowing the access from the street rather than the alley is justified and required for the situation intended since it results in more appropriate access for a higher end residence rather than accessing from an alley that the neighbors do not use for access. f. The modification will not create adverse impacts to other properties in the vicinity. All other properties m this block access the houses from the street. The shed is capable of safely provided access for one more property. Please review the proposal for granting a modification to allow access from the street to the new residence and garage at 676 Edmonds Ave NE.

HANSON CONSULTING LLC November 29, 2012 Jennifer Henning Planning Division 1055 South Grady Way Renton WA 98057 Subject: Modification of RMC44-080F,7,b, alley access required Dear Mrs. Henning: a-� Of g Diff ision DEC 1011 James Jacques owns an old single family residence at 676 Edmonds Ave NE. The house is in need of extensive repair. W. Jacques wishes to remove the old house and build a new house in its place with access from Edmonds Ave NE, the same as now. The concern we have is that of the requirement of RMC44-080F,7,b which requires vehicular alley access. We do not believe alley access is appropriate given the unique situation as explained in the justification. The lot is located in an older part of the city which has rather small houses built around 60 years ago. All of the houses on this block of Edmonds Ave NE have vehicular access from Edmonds Ave NE. None of the existing houses in this block fronting Edmonds Ave NE have access from the alley. All of the houses have a solid fence about 6 feet tall along the alley. The alley is about 3 to 4 feet above the grade of the subject lot Alley access to the garage will result in a 15% to 17 % grade from the alley to the garage floor using the required 20 foot setback. Backing out into the alley going up such a grade will be dangerous since the existing fences will block view into the alley. Mr. Jacques wishes to use Edmonds Ave NE for vehicular access just like his neighbors. We are hereby requesting a modification of RMC4-4-080F,7,b to allow access to the garage of the proposed house to be from the street in front which is Edmonds Ave NE. The following address the decision criteria required by Section 4-9-250D2 for granting a modification of city standards: a. The proposal will implement the policies in the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan. 1. The house meets the goals of the Community Design Element by raising the aesthetic quality of the City. The house will be higher quality residential housing then any house in the area. 2 -Objective CD -C will be met by an upgrade in an existing residential neighborhood 3.Policy CD -15 will be met, the residence will access the garage from the street like most of the houses along Edmonds Ave NE in this block. 4.Policy CD -18b will be met by having the garage access the same using the same pattern established in the vicinity. 17446 Mallard Cove Laine, Mt Vernon WA 98274.360-422-5056- Lchmmorntr'wm ecablexom b. The prop* will meet the objectives and safety inked by the code. Allowing access from the street will provide a much safer access to the garage than requiring backing out up a 3 to 4 foot slope with solid fences blocking the view. c. The granting of the modification will not be injurious to other properties in the vicinity. All of the neighbors in this block of Edmonds Ave NE use Edmonds for access, not the alley. d. The proposal conforms to intent of the code by provided safe access to the house while keeping in character with the neighborhood- e. eighborhoode. Allowing the access from the street rather than the alley is justified and required for the situation untended since it results in more appropriate access for a higher end residence rather than accessing from an alley that the neighbors do not use for access. f. The modification will not create adverse impacts to other properties in the vicinity. All other properties in this block access the houses from the street. The street is capable of safely provided access for one more property. Please review the proposal for granting a modification to allow access from the street to the new residence and garage at 676 Edmonds Ave NE. If you have any questions concerning this application please give me a call or e-mail.

Vernon, WA 98274 40 CONCUR, I CE DATE NAME IN Ti DA ,—I M SUBJECT: JACQUES EDMONDS AVE PARKING LOT DESIGN STANDARDS MODIFICATION 676 EDMONDS AVENUE NE (FILE NO: LUA12-000195, MOD) Dear Mr. Hanson: The City of Renton has received your request to modify the parking design standards for the proposed single-family residence on the property located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE in the Residential — 8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) zone (Exhibits 1 and 2). The following summarizes your request, project background, analysis, and decision. Summary of Request Jim Hanson has requested a modification from the Parking Lot Design Standards for a proposed new single-family house located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE. The rear property line of the site abuts an alley. The modification would be from RMC 4-4-080F.7 which specifies that for lots abutting an alley, all parking areas and/or attached or detached garages shall not occur in front of the building and/or in the area between the front lot line and the front building line; parking areas and garages must occur at the rear or side of the building, and vehicular access shall be taken from the alley. A modification from RMC 4-4-080F.7.b is requested in order to allow vehicular access from the front via Edmonds Avenue NE. Background The property is located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE and is in the Residential — 8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) zone_ The subject proposal would result in a parking lot design standard modification for a new single-family residence on a site where the existing single-family residence will be demolished and a new single-family residence would be built to replace it. The proposed new single-family residence would have vehicular access to a front -loaded garage via Edmonds Avenue NE which fronts the subject property on the west (Exhibit 3). The 15 -foot paved alley abuts the rear property line and is approximately three to four feet above of the grade of the subject property. Most other single-family houses which have the alley abutting their property (and front on Edmonds Avenue NE, Ferndale Court NE, Ferndale Avenue NE, or Ferndale Place NE) do not use the alley for vehicular access; and, most of these properties have six-foot high rear yard fences_ Denis Law City O Mayor December 12, 2012 Department of Communityand Economic Development C.E."Chip"Vincent, Administrator Jim Hanson J. Hanson Consulting LLC 17446 Mallard Cove Lane Mt, Vernon, WA 98274 SUBJECT: JACQUES EDMONDS AVE PARKING LOT DESIGN STANDARDS MODIFICATION 676 EDMONDS AVENUE NE (FILE NO: LUA12-000195, MOD) Dear Mr. Hanson: The City of Renton has received your request to modify the parking design standards for the proposed single-family residence on the property located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE in the Residential — 8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) zone (Exhibits land 2). The following summarizes your request, project background, analysis, and decision. Summary of Request Jim Hanson has requested a modification from the Parking Lot Design Standards, specifically, RMC 4-4-080F.7; which specifies that for lots abutting an alley, all parking areas and/or attached or detached garages shall not occur in front of the building and/or in the area between the front lot line and the front building line; parking areas and garages must occur at the rear or side of the building, and vehicular access shall be taken from the alley. The site's rear property line abuts an alley; therefore, a modification is requested in order to allow vehicular access from the front via Edmonds Avenue NE. Background The property is located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE and is in the Residential — 8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) zone. The subject proposal would result in a parking lot design standard modification for a new single-family residence on a site where the existing single-family residence will be demolished and a new single-family residence would be built to replace it. The proposed new single-family residence.would have.vehicular access to a front -loaded garage via Edmonds Avenue NE which fronts the subject property on the west (Exhibit 3). The 15 -foot paved alley abuts the rear property line and is approximately three to four feet above of the grade of the subject property. Most other single-family houses which have the alley abutting their property (and front on Edmonds Avenue NE, Ferndale Court NE, Ferndale Avenue NE, or Ferndale Place NE) do not use the alley for vehicular access; and, most of these properties have six-foot high rear yard fences. RMC 4-9-250D2 requires that the following criteria must be met for modifications: 1. Substantially implements the policy direction of the policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and the Community Design Element and the Renton City Hall • 1055 South Grady Way • Renton, Washington 98057 . rentonwa.gov ]im Hanson December 13, 2012 Page 2 proposed modification is the minimum adjustment necessary to implement these policies and objectives; and 2. Will meet the objectives and safety, function, appearance, environmental protection and maintainability intended by the Code requirements, based upon sound engineering judgment; and 3. Will not be injurious to other property(ies) in the vicinity; and 4. Conforms to the intent and purpose of the Code; and S. Can be shown to be justified and required for the use and situation intended; and, 6. Will not create adverse impacts to other property(ies) in the vicinity. Analysis and Decision The purpose of the Parking, Loading, and Driveway Regulations (RMC 4-4-080) is to provide a means of regulating parking to promote the health, safety, morals, general welfare and aesthetics of the City of Reriton by specifying the off-street parking and loading requirements for all uses permitted and to describe design standards and other required improvements. The Residential Parking Location Requirement for R-8 Zones (RMC 4-4-080F.7.b) requires that for lots abutting an alley, all parking must take access from the alley. RMC 4-4-080F.7.b also refers to the Residential Design and Open Space Standards (RMC 4-2-115). The Residential Resign and Open Standards provide six options forgarages in the R-8 zone: 1. Recessed from the front of the house and/or porch at least 8 feet; or 2. Located so that the roof extends at least 5 feet beyond the front of the garage for at least the width of the garage plus the porch/stoop area, or 3. Alley accessed; or 4. Located so that the entry does not face a public and/or private street or an access easement; or 5. Sized so that it represents no greater. than. 50% of the width of the front fagade at ground level; or 6. Detached. The proposed attached, front -loaded garage would be sized so that it represents no greater than 50% of the width of the front fagade at ground level (Exhibit 3). While the proposal does not meet the Residential Parking Location Requirement for R-8 zones, it does satisfy Option 1 of the Residential Design and Open Standards for garages. Jim Hanson December 13, 2012 Page 3 A driveway from the alley to the subject property would result in a driveway grade of 15% to 17%. Driveway grades of greater than 15% are not permitted pursuant RMC 4-4-0801.6.a. Drivers backing out into the alley with such a driveway grade may have difficulty seeing moving vehicles in the alley. Based on the analysis, above, the proposed modification satisfies Option 5 of the Residential Design and Open Space Standards regarding garages. The proposal satisfies the criteria listed in RMC 4-9-250D2 for approval of modifications in that it substantially implements the policy direction of the policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and Community Design Element and is the minimum adjustment necessary to implement these policies and objectives; meets the intent and purpose of the Code; does not result in injury or adverse impacts, and is justified in this instance. Therefore, the modification of the parking lot design standards for parking location requirements in the R-8 zone for the proposed single-family residential structure to be located at 676 Edmonds Avenue NE is approved. The decision to approve the proposed modification will become final if not appealed in writing together with the required fee to: Hearing Examiner, City of Renton, 1055 South Grady Way; Renton, WA 98057, on or before S:00 pm, December 27, 2011.
