ADDENDUM TO ENVIRONMENTAL (SEPA) DETERMINATION OF
NON -SIGNIFICANCE (DNS -M) - MITIGATED
Pursuant to WAC 197-11-600(4)(c) and WAC 197-11-625
Addendum to the Downtown Renton
as Addended by the City of Renton LUA12-022
Determination of Non -Significance - Mitigated (DNS -M)
Date of Addendum: July 23, 2012
Date of Original Issuance of SEPA Threshold Determination: May 14, 2012
Proponent: King County Library System
Project Number: LUA12-022, ECF, SA -H, CU -H, MOD
Project Name: Renton Downtown Library
Proposal / Purpose of Addendum: The applicant, King County Library System (KCLS), received
Hearing Examiner Site Plan Review, Conditional Use Permit, Environmental (SEPA) Review and a
Parking Modification approval for the construction of a new 15,083 square foot public library.
The project site consists of three parcels containing a total of 24,070 square feet of Center
Downtown (CD) zoned property. The site is also located within Design District 'A'. There is an
existing retail structure on the west end of the site, formerly used by Big 5, and an associated
parking lot in the center of the site which is proposed for demolition/removal as part of the
proposal. Additionally, Gateway Park is located on the eastern portion of the site which would
be redesigned as part of the proposal in order to create an entry plaza for the new library. The
proposed restriping of the existing parking area, to the north within a City of Seattle Cedar River
Pipeline easement, would create two additional parking spaces along with the addition of six
new stalls, resulting in a total of 50 onsite parking stalls. Access to the site would be gained via
two curb cuts; one along Morris Ave S through to Logan Ave S.
The applicant is requesting an addendum to amend Mitigation Measure #3 of the SEPA
threshold Determination of Non -Significance -- Mitigated (DNS -M):
3. A survey shall be submitted to the Current Planning Project Manager that conforms to the
requirements and standards of the Washington State Office of Archaeology and Historic
Preservation and must be conducted under the on-site supervision of a state -approved
archaeologist prior to construction permit approval.
Addendum to Environmental (S,,A) Review
Page 2 of 3
July 23, 2012
The project site currently contains an existing commercial building and a small parking lot.
Because demolition and excavation work needs to occur, in order for the archeologist to
perform the required survey, the applicant would like to amend the measure so that the
archeological survey would be required during construction, nor prior to construction permit
approval.
It has been determined that the environmental impacts of the proposal were adequately
addressed under the analysis of significant impacts contained within the previous DNS -M.
However, the mitigation prescribed by City's Environmental Review Committee (ERC) would not
allow for the ground disturbance needed in order to determine if archeologiocal resources are
present. Based on WAC 197-11-600(4) c, the addendum process may be used if analysis or
information is added that does not substantially change the analysis of significant impacts and
alternatives in the existing environmental document.
The determination by the ERC will not change the analysis or impacts in the 1995 State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Review. However, this addendum will modify the Mitigation
Measure of the DNS -M issued on May 14, 2012 to read:
3. A survey shall be submitted to the Current Planning Project Manager that conforms to the
requirements and standards of the Washington State Office of Archaeology and Historic
Preservation and must be conducted under the on-site supervision of a state -approved
archaeologist prior to building permit approval.
The City of Renton is hereby issuing a SEPA Addendum pursuant to WAC 197-11-600.
This Addendum is appropriate because it contains only minor information not included in the
original Determination and there no environmental impacts related to inclusion of the new
information.
Location: 510 S 3rd St
Lead Agency: City of Renton, Department of Community & Economic Development
Review Process: Addendum to previously issued Determination of Non -Significance -
Mitigated (DNS -M)
Additional Information: if you would like additional information, please contact Rocale
Timmons, Associate Planner, City of Renton Planning Division, Department of Community &
Economic Development at (425) 430-7219.

BEFORE THE HEARING EXAMINER FOR THE CITY OF RENTON
RE: King County Library System
Conditional Use, Site Plan, SEPA
Review and Parking Modification
LUA12-022, ECF, SA -H, CU -H, MOD }
Summary
FINAL DECISION
The King County Library System (KCLS) has applied for a conditional use permit, site plan approval
and parking modification for the construction of a new 15,083 square foot library at 510 South 3rd St.
The conditional use permit, site plan and parking modification are approved with conditions.
Testimony
Rocale Timmons, Associate Planner, testified that the subject site is bordered by a Seattle
Public Utilities easement to the north, Logan Avenue to the east, South 3rd Street to the south and
a commercial property on the western boundary. The site is 0.55 acres and located in the urban
Center Downtown (CD) zoning classification. It is located within design district "A". An
existing retail space and parking lot would be demolished in order to build the proposed
structure. The existing Gateway Park would be redesigned to provide an entry plaza for the new
library. A 15,000 sq. ft. structure, along with associated parking, landscaping, and infrastructure
improvements, is proposed. Access to the site would be provided via Morris Avenue South to
Logan Avenue South. The existing parking lot would be re -striped for a total of 50 parking
stalls.

The proposal requires a Hearing Examiner site plan and design review and a conditional use
permit. Additionally, the Applicant is requesting a parking modification to reduce the minimum
number of parking stalls required by RMC 4-4-080 from 60 to 50 spaces. Staff held a 14 -day
comment period beginning on April 29' 2012. During this period, the Department of
Archaeology noted the potential of an archaeological site in the area. The Environmental Review
Committee issued a Determination of Non -Significance - Mitigated on May 14, 2012, which
included five mitigation measures related to impact fees and archaeological consideration. No
appeals were filed during the appeal period from May 18, 2012 to June 1, 2012. Staff is
recommending that the application be required to comply with the 5 mitigation measures outlined
in the report.
Ms. Timmons stated that Staff reviewed the site plan in order to ensure consistency with design
district regulations outlined in RMC 4-3-100. The proposed structure is concentrated in the
western portion of the site with a 1.5 foot setback from the south property line. The front entry
would face the redesigned plaza along Logan Avenue. Six canopies are proposed along South 3rd
Street. Staff recommends the Applicant be required to obtain a right of way use permit for the
canopies prior to receiving a building permit approval. The dark brown -colored area on the site
plan is part of the proposal (it is where the offices will be located). Canopies and concrete forms
will be used to break the fagade along South 3rd Street. Additionally, various roof forms reduce
the apparent bulk of the facility. The proposal includes a variety of building materials such as
concrete, aluminum, and terra cotta panels.
The site currently contains 28 trees which would all be removed during construction. The
Applicant is proposing 2,500 sq. ft. of landscaping to enhance the appearance of the project. The
proposed facility would require a 100 sq, ft. refuse and recycle area. The Applicant is proposing
the area along the northern fagade as this area. Staff recommends that the Applicant submit a
revised plan with elevations that provide for a roof covering of the recycle area. Staff is in
support of reducing the number of required parking spaces as there are over 600 spaces within a
1 -block radius of the site. Appropriate public services have been provided to accommodate the
proposal.
In regard to the conditional use permit, Staff reviewed the proposal to ensure that the library is
appropriate for the site and not detrimental to the public welfare. The current location is
approximately 0.5 mile from the new site. The new location is more urban in character and is an
extremely accessible area. Staff believes the proposed structure is compatible in scale and
character with the existing neighborhood. Staff recommends approval of the new library, subject
to three conditions of approval.
Upon questioning from the Hearing Examiner, Ms. Timmons noted that there are 137 parking
stalls along the street and a parking garage north of the site. To her knowledge, the parking
facilities in the area are not being used to their current capacities. The Applicant is not proposing
to do anything with the current library site.

The mitigations recommended by the Environmental Review Committee include the requirement
for an archaeological review prior to any construction.
The parking modification is being consolidated into the Hearing Examiner review process.
Parking is off-site (located within an casement of the property), and the existing pavement will
be used. The north facade is not along the street, thus the only site only fronts onto South 3rd
Street and a small portion of Logan Avenue.

FINDINGS OF FACT
Procedural:
Applicant. King County Library System (CLS).
2. Heate. The Examiner held a hearing on the subject application on June 19, 2012 at 1:00
pm in the City of Renton Council Chambers.
Substantive:
3. Project Description. The King County Library System (KCLS) has applied for a conditional
use permit, site plan approval and parking modification toward the construction of a new 15,083 sq.
ft. public library with associated parking, landscaping and infrastructure improvements. The project
site consists of three parcels containing a total of 24,070 sq. ft. of Center Downtown (CD) zoned
property in the Urban Center Downtown (UC -D) Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation. The
site is also located within Design District `A'. The site is bordered on the north by a City of Seattle
Public Utilities (SPU) easement, on the east by Logan Avenue South, on the south by South 3rd
Street and on the west by a zero lot -line commercial property. Across Logan Avenue South is the
Renton Piazza. There is an existing retail structure on the west end of the site, formerly used by Big
5 sporting goods store, and an associated parking lot in the center of the site. The retail structure is
approximately 13,444 sq. ft. in size with 42 existing parking stalls located on-site. Additionally,
Gateway Park is located on the eastern portion of the site. The Applicant is proposing to demolish
the existing retail building and restripe the existing parking lot with the addition of eight new parking
stalls for a total of 50 total parking stalls. The park would be redesigned as part of the proposal in
order to create an entry plaza for the new library. The proposed restriping of the existing parking
area to the north within a City of Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) easement would create two additional

parking spaces along with the addition of 6 new stalls, resulting in a total of 50 onsite parking stalls.
The Applicant is requesting a parking modification from RMC 4-4-080 in order to decrease the
minimum number of parking spaces required onsite from 60 to 50 stalls. Access to the site is
proposed via two curb cuts; along Morris Avenue South through to Logan Avenue South. There are
no critical areas located on site.
The building is oriented to the street and easement with minimal setbacks from the property lines.
The front entry would face the redesigned east plaza, along Logan Avenue South, and allows for
entry from all three sides. A prominent entrance is visible from the north parking area as well as the
South 3rd Street sidewalk. Additionally a large canopy, 30 feet in width, would provide cover for
pedestrians approaching from all directions.
The proposed building is designed appropriately to allow adequate light and air circulation to the
building and the site. The design of the structures would not result in excessive shading of the
property. In addition, there is ample area surrounding the building to provide normal air -flow.
The full civic scale of the proposed library is more prominently visible from the proposed plaza cast
of the building and also from the Renton piazza to the east of the proposed plaza. The proposal
includes a variety of building materials: concrete, aluminum, windows, and terra cotta panels. The
terra cotta wall areas would be comprised of two shades of color and would reflect vertical banding.
The concrete elements would display form tic patterns and panel jointing (Exhibit 5).
The scale and bulk of the building is reduced through the use of differing materials on the building
facades, building articulation and modulation and differing roof profiles. The Applicant has
proposed the use of canopies and concrete forms to break down the facade along South 3rd Street
into smaller increments. The building incorporates two roof forms to reduce the apparent bulk of the
facility. Additionally the building steps back from South 3rd Street to provide clerestory light and to
reduce the apparent mass of the building along the facade.
The refuse and recycle facilities are proposed to be screened with an enclosure that matches the
materials of the proposed structure; terra cotta masonry panels. The refuse and recyclables area
would be accessible from the SPU parking easement.
4. Adequacy of Infrastructure/Public Services_. The project will be served by adequate
infrastructure and public services as follows:
A. Water and Sewer Service. The site is served by the City of Renton for all utilities. There
is a 1 -inch domestic water meter serving the existing building. There is an existing 12 -
inch water main in South 3rd Street. The preliminary fire flow requirement per the Fire
Marshal's office is 2,250 gallons per minute (gpm). All new construction must have fire
hydrants capable of delivering a minimum of 1,000 gpm each. One primary hydrant is
required within 150 feet from the building and two additional hydrants are required within

300 feet of the building. One new hydrant is required and is shown on the plan. The final
hydrant location will require approval by the Fire Department to meet the City standards.
Any existing hydrants counted as fire protection will be required to be retrofitted with a
quick disconnect Storz fitting, if not already in place and subject to verification by the Fire
Department.
There is a side sewer serving the existing building. The City will proceed with the
optional plan of replacing the sewer main through the new library property and installing a
manhole where the existing bend in the existing main is located. SPU is working on
permitting for this_ This part of the work will be required to be installed by the developer.
The City will follow behind this work and re -line the portion of the main under the
remaining buildings.
B. Fire and Police. Police and Fire Prevention Staff indicate that sufficient resources exist to
furnish services to the proposed development; subject to the condition that the Applicant
provides Code required improvements and fees. A SEPA mitigation condition was
adopted requiring the Applicant to pay a Fire Impact Fee, based on the new square footage
of non-residential area.
C. Drainage. The project is required to comply with the new City of Renton Amendments to
the 2009 King County Surface Water Design Manual. A conceptual drainage plan and
report stamped by a PE was submitted with the formal application, and per the report the
project is complying with the 2009 King County Surface Water Design Manual. Since the
project is exempt from flow control and water quality, the engineer is proposing to
tightline the roof and footing drains to a new 8 -inch PVC storm pipe that will cross the
Seattle pipeline to the north and tie into an existing catch basin and storm conveyance
system.
D. Parks/Open Space. City development standards do not require any set -asides or mitigation
for parks and open space for libraries. The Applicant has consulted with the City of
Renton Park's Department in order to redesign Gateway Park, along with input from the
public, into a plaza that would function as an entry plaza for the proposed library. The
plaza is approximately 1,$00 sq. ft. measuring 90' X 90'. In light of security concerns the
Applicant opted for an open and urban design. The plaza would contain seating, trees,
landscaping in planters, and sculptural furnishings. The design of the public plaza allows
for ample sun exposure and is visibly linked to the existing public plaza located to the
east.

E. Transportation. Access to the site is proposed via two existing curb cuts on Morris
Avenue South and on Logan Avenue South. The vehicular traffic patterns would not be
significantly affected by the proposed project. The drive aisle width and direction of two-
way traffic flow would not be affected by the proposal. Staff have concluded that the
proposed development is expected to maintain the safety and efficiency of pedestrian and
vehicle circulation on and off the site and there is no evidence to the contrary.
Based on the traffic generation analysis, the proposed final project is anticipated to
generate approximately 146 additional daily trips. In order to mitigate transportation
impacts, a SEPA mitigation measure requiring the Applicant to pay an appropriate
Transportation Impact Fee was adopted. Street improvements along South 3rd Street are
required to match the existing sidewalk and lighting design improvements to the east.
Additionally, all wire utilities shall be installed underground per the City of Renton
ordinances and standards. All new services shall be installed underground.
F. Parkin . The parking regulations, RMC 4-4-080, require a specific number of off-street
parking stalls be provided based on the number of employees that work at the facility, in
this instance the proposed 15,000 sq. ft. library would be required to provide 60 parking
spaces. The Applicant proposed to provide a total of 50 spaces. Therefore, the Applicant
is requesting a parking modification to reduce the minimum number of stalls from 60 to
50 parking stalls. The Renton Transit Center is within one block of the site. Additionally,
plentiful parking is provided in the vicinity of the site; 137 street parking stalls within a
one block radius and 562 parking stalls within the City Center Parking Garage located one
block from the project site. The proposed parking conforms to the minimum requirements
for drive aisle and parking stall dimensions and the provision of ADA accessible parking
stalls.
G. Sidewalks. Sidewalks are provided from the street to the entries and around the building
in order to provide pedestrian linkages. Public sidewalks adjacent to the project site
would be widened and repaved. The planting strips along the right-of-way to the north are
proposed to be removed resulting in a 10 -foot wide walkway. Along South 3rd Street the
proposed building would be set back from the property line approximately 1 -foot 6 -inches,
resulting in a walkway of approximately 12 feet in width. In addition, proposed pedestrian
sidewalks and hardscape associated with the plaza would be concrete and differentiated by
materials and texture.
H. Bicycles. Per RMC 4-4-080(F)(11), the number of bicycle parking spaces shall be 10%
of the number of required off-street parking spaces. Based on the proposal which requires

60 vehicle parking stalls, 6 bicycle parking stalls are required to be provided. The
Applicant has proposed 10 bicycle parking stalls on site, within the plaza area, complying
with the standards outline in RMC 4-4-080F.
5. Adverse IMpacts. There are no significant adverse impacts associated with the project. Few
adverse impacts are anticipated since there are no critical areas on site, the proposal is a
redevelopment of a fully developed parcel and adequate infrastructure serves the site as determined in
Finding of Fact No. 4. The SEPA MDNS mitigation measures in the Environmental Report (Exhibit
6) are adopted as Conditions of Approval. Adoption of Ex. 6 encompasses both the Findings of Fact
and the Conclusions of Law of Staff. All other adverse impacts discernible from the record are also
fully mitigated. Impacts are more specifically addressed as follows:
A. Archaeological Resources. According to the Staff report, Staff received comments from
the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation; regarding the potential for an
archaeological site in the area (Exhibit 9). A mitigation measure of the May 14, 2012
SEPA Determination of Non -Significance — Mitigated, will require the Applicant to
submit a survey to the Current Planning Project Manager that conforms to the
requirements and standards of the Washington State Office of Archaeology and Historic
Preservation and work must be conducted under the on-site supervision of a state -
approved archaeologist.
B. Noise. It is anticipated that most of the noise impacts would occur during the construction
phase of the project. The Applicant has submitted a Construction Mitigation Pian that
provides measures to reduce construction impacts such as noise, control of dust, traffic
controls, etc. In addition, the project would be required to comply with the City's noise
ordinance regarding construction hours.
C. Views. There are no large attractive natural features on or near the site for which visual
accessibility needs to be maintained. The Applicant has proposed to limit the height of the
proposed structure to 32 feet and 6 inches which mitigate view impacts from surrounding
properties. The Applicant is also proposing the removal of the existing dense tree canopy
within Gateway Park in order to improve site lines into the park.
D. Li htin . The proposal includes the addition of three new streetlights and four existing
pedestrian -height streetlights would be replaced with the City standard. The existing
streetlight at the southwest corner of the project site would be removed. Additionally,
downlights with shielding and cutoffs would be incorporated into the proposed canopies to
minimize light impacts to adjoining properties.
E. Natural Features and Landscaping. The site contains 28 trees of which all 28 trees are
proposed for removal. RMC 4-4-130 requires that 5 percent of the trees on site be
retained. Of the 28 trees, 1 tree is required to be retained at the 5 percent retention rate.

When the required number of protected trees cannot be retained, new trees, with a two-
inch caliper or greater, shall be planted. The replacement rate shall be twelve caliper
inches of new trees to replace each protected tree removed. The Applicant is proposing
26 -caliper inches of new trees (13 trees) to replace the protected tree. There is a total of
2,516 square feet of landscaping proposed on site. The landscaping softens the appearance
of parking areas, defines and enhances open spaces, and generally enhances the
appearance of the project. Landscaping is also proposed to conceal the service area from
view along the parking easement. Landscaping has been thoughtfully incorporated into
the site plan in order to screen loading and parking areas (Exhibit 3).
As shown in Ex. 3, landscaping is provided in all areas not occupied by buildings, paving,
or critical areas. There is no need to provide any additional landscaping to screen adjacent
uses.
F. Soils and Groundwater. The Applicant provided a geotechnical report, prepared by
GeoEngineers, November 2, 2011 (Exhibit 10). The topography of the site is relatively
flat, sloping downward from the eastern portion of the site. Following development,
impervious surface coverage would be a 100% on the building site and approximately 50%
on the park parcel to the east. The Applicant is proposing to excavate approximately 1,320
cubic yards on site in order to accommodate a depressed slab for the proposed access floor.
In addition, geothermal bore holes would be drilled underneath the proposed structure
producing drilling spoils that would be required to be hauled off site. Fill, in the amount of
1,030 cubic yards, would be imported to the site in order to fill void areas of removed
footings from the existing building demolition.
Groundwater was encountered at approximate depths ranging from 12-15 feet below
existing grades in borings in the site vicinity. The report recommended that shallow
foundations bearing on improved soil is the preferred foundation alternative. Lean
concrete auger cast columns installed to an approximate depth of 20 to 30 feet below site
grades on a variable grid pattern have been selected as the preferred ground improvement
technique. Dewatering during construction is not anticipated except for deep utility
trenches.
The provided geotechnical report recommended measures to be implemented by the
Applicant to mitigate the proposal's potential impact to soils and related conditions. A
condition of approval will require all work performed to be consistent with the
recommendations of the geotechnical report, prepared by GeoEngineers, dated November
2, 2011.
G. Suns. The Applicant did not submit a signage package for the proposed library. A
condition of approval will require the Applicant to comply with the signage requirements
outlined in RMC 4-4100 at the time of sign application.

Conclusions of Law
1. Authority. Government offices and facilities are allowed in the Center Downtown (CD)
district as a conditional use subject to Hearing Examiner review. RMC 4-8-080(G) classifies
conditional use applications as Type III permits when Hearing Examiner review is required. RMC 4-
9-200(B)(2)(a) requires site plan review for all development in the CD zones. In the absence of the
conditional use permit application, no Hearing Examiner review would be required for the site plan
and it would be classified as a Type II permit by RMC 4-8-080(G). RMC 4-8-080(G) classifies
modifications, deviations and alternatives of various code standards, such as the parking modification
request in this proposal, as Type I permits, which are administratively approved by Staff with no
required hearing. All three of the aforementioned permits have been consolidated. RMC 4-8-
080(C)(2) requires consolidated permits to each be processed under "the highest -number procedure".
The conditional use has the highest numbered review procedures, so all three permits must be
processed as Type III applications. As Type III applications, RMC 4-8-080(G) grants the Examiner
with the authority to hold a hearing and issue a final decision on them, subject to closed record appeal
to the City Council.
2, Zoning/Comprehensive Plan Designations. The subject property is zoned Center Downtown
(CD), a commercial district. The comprehensive plan land use designation is Urban Center
Downtown (UC- D). The subject property is also located in Design District `A'.
3. Review Criteria. Conditional use criteria are governed by RMC 4-9-030(D). Site plan review
standards are governed by RMC 4-9-200(E)(3). Parking modifications are governed by RMC 4-4-
080(F)(10)(d). All applicable criteria are quoted below in italics and applied through corresponding
conclusions of law.
Conditional Use
The Administrator or designee or the Hearing Examiner shall consider, as applicable, the following
factors for all applications:
RMC 4-9-030(0)(1): Consistency with Plans and Regulations. The proposed use shall he
compatible with the general goals, objectives, policies and standards of the Comprehensive Plan, the
zoning regulations and any other plans, programs, maps or ordinances of the City of Renton.

4. The proposal is consistent with Objective LU-QQ and Policy LU -201, LU -202, LU -204 and
LU -205 as quoted at page 5 of the Staff Report because as designed and mitigated the project is
designed to be part of a vibrant city core, provides for the redevelopment of vacant commercial space,
will be appropriate in the scale of the buildings compared to the subject's vicinity and will encourage
the evolution of downtown Renton into a regional commercial district by serving as a civic
destination. The proposal is consistent with all applicable zoning and other development standards as
outlined in Finding 14(a) -(c) of the Staff report, adopted and incorporated by this reference as if set
forth in full.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(2): Appropriate Location: The proposed location shall not result in the
detrimental overconcentration of a particular use within the City or within the immediate area of the
proposed use. The proposed location shall be suited for the proposed use.
5. There are no other libraries within the immediate vicinity of the library. Even if there were, it
is hard to imagine how a community could suffer a "detrimental overconcentration" from an
abundance of libraries. As discussed in Conclusion of Law No. 4 , the proposed location is suitable
for the proposed use. Given these factors the criterion is met.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(3): Effect on Adjacent Properties: The proposed use at the proposed location
shall not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent property_
6. As determined in Finding of Fact No. 5 there are no adverse impacts associated with the
proposal, so it will not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent property.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(4): Compatibility: The proposed use shall be compatible with the scale and
character of the neighborhood.
7. The proposed use is surrounded by public and commercial uses and has been well designed to
break up mass and scale to be compatible with surrounding development, as discussed in Finding of
Fact No. 3. Improvements to Gateway Park and screening that are integrated into the project also
reduce aesthetic impacts and increase compatibility.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(5): Parking: Adequate parking is, or will be made, available.
8. As concluded below, the parking proposed by the Applicant qualifies for a parking
modification and is thus considered compliant with applicable City standards, which defines adequate
parking for the site.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(6): Traffic: The use shall ensure safe movement for vehicles and pedestrians and
shall mitigate potential effects on the surrounding area.

the general traffic in the vicinity and provides for adequate and safe vehicle and pedestrian
circulation.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(7): Noise, Light and Glare: Potential noise, light and glare impacts from the
proposed use shall be evaluated and mitigated.
10. As determined in Finding of Fact No. 5, noise and light impacts are adequately addressed and
mitigated. Lighting will comply with City regulations which require lights to be directed inwards and
prohibited light trespass. As to noise, the Applicant has submitted a Construction Mitigation Plan to
minimize noise impacts during construction and the City's noise regulations, Chapter 8-7 RMC, sets
the legislative standard for noise impacts and will adequately regulation noise when construction is
completed.
RMC 4-9-030(C)(8): Landscaping: Landscaping shall be provided in all areas not occupied by
buildings, paving, or critical areas. Additional landscaping may be required to buffer adjacent
properties from potentially adverse effects of the proposed use.
11. As determined in Finding of Fact 5(E), the criterion is met.
Site Plan
RMC 4-9-200(E)(3): Criteria: The Administrator or designee roust find a proposed project to be in
compliance with the following:
a. Compliance and Consistency: Conformance with plans, policies, regulations and approvals,
including;

RMC 4-9-200(E)(3)(b): Off --Site Impacts: Mitigation of impacts to surrounding properties and
uses, including:
L Structures: Restricting overscale structures and overconcentration of development on a
particular portion of the site;
ii. Circulation: Providing desirable transitions and linkages between uses, streets,
walkways and adjacent properties;
iii. Loading and Storage Areas: Locating, designing and screening storage areas,
utilities, rooftop equipment, loading areas, and refuse and recyclables to minimize views
from surrounding properties;
iv. Views: Recognizing the public benefit and desirability of maintaining visual
accessibility to attractive natural features;
v. Landscaping: Using landscaping to provide transitions between development and
surrounding properties to reduce noise and glare, maintain privacy, and generally
enhance the appearance of the project; and
vr. Lighting: Designing andlor placing exterior lighting and glazing in order to avoid
excessive brightness or glare to adjacent properties and streets.
13. The library facility is necessarily concentrated on one portion of the site, however the scale
and bulk of the building is compatible with the low rise urban structures that surround the site. As
determined in Finding of Fact No. 5, lighting and view impacts are adequately mitigated and
landscaping is effectively used to protect adjoining properties from noise and glare and to maintain
privacy and enhance the appearance of the project. As determined in Finding of Fact No. 3, the
project provides screening of refuse areas to minimize views from surrounding properties. As
determined in Finding of Fact No. 5, the proposal does not create any adverse light impacts. The
criterion is met.
RMC 4-9-200(E)(3)(c): On Site Impacts: Mitigation of impacts to the .site, including.
L Structure Placement. Provisions for privacy and noise reduction by building placement,

iii. Natural Features: Protection of the natural landscape by retaining existing vegetation
and soils, using topography to reduce undue cutting and filling, and limiting impervious
surfaces; and
iv. Landscaping: Use of landscaping to soften the appearance of parking areas, to provide
shade and privacy where needed, to define and enhance open spaces, and generally to
enhance the appearance of the project. Landscaping also includes the design and
protection of planting areas so that they are less susceptible to damage from vehicles or
pedestrian movements.
14. The proposal is largely surrounded by public and commercial uses and its placement, structure
and orientation would have not discernible impact on privacy or noise. As determined in Finding of
Fact No. 3 and 5, the proposal is designed to be compatible in scale and mass to surrounding uses
and will not significantly adversely affect surrounding uses in any way. There is nothing in the
record to reasonably suggest that the scale of the project is incompatible with sunlight, prevailing
winds or natural characteristics. As to natural features, there are no critical areas on-site. As
determined in Finding of Fact No. 5, the proposal protects trees as required by City standards and is
mitigated to prevent adverse impacts to soil and groundwater quality. The site is fully landscaped as
determined in Finding of Fact No. 5. The criterion is met.
RMC 4-9-200(E)(3)(d): Access and Circulation: Safe and efficient access and circulation for all

RMC 4-9-250(D)(2): Decision Criteria: Whenever there are practical difficulties involved in
carrying out the provisions of this Title, the Department Administrator may grant modifications for
individual cases provided he/she shall first find that a specific reason makes the strict letter of this
Code impractical, that the intent and purpose of the governing land use designation of the
Comprehensive Plan is met and that the modification is in conformity with the intent and purpose of
this Code, and that such modification:
a. Substantially implements the policy direction of the policies and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and the Community Design Element and the
proposed modification is the minimum adjustment necessary to implement these policies and
objectives;
b. Will meet the objectives and safety, function, appearance, environmental protection and
maintainability intended by the Code requirements, based upon sound engineering judgment;
c. Will not be injurious to other property(ies) in the vicinity;
d. Conforms to the intent and purpose of the Code;
e. Can be shown to be justified and required.for the use and situation intended; and
f. Will not create adverse impacts to other property(ies) in the vicinity.
22. As discussed in Finding of Fact 4(F), the Applicant is requesting a parking modification to
reduce the minimum number of stalls from 60 to 54 parking stalls. The record indicates there is
ample parking in the general vicinity of the proposed project and that the needs of the library can be
adequately served with the reduced parking provided. The requested modification conforms to the
intent and purpose of the parking regulations by providing sufficient on-site parking for the amount
necessary for the new Renton Downtown Library while providing the minimum adjustment
necessary to meet the policy direction of the policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Element and the Community Design Element, providing for safety and function, and
providing no injury or adverse impacts to other properties in the vicinity. Furthermore, the proposed
parking conforms to the minimum requirements for drive aisle and parking stall dimensions and the
provision of ADA accessible parking stalls. This criterion is satisfied and the requested parking
waiver granted.

Re: Archaeology - Survey Requested, Possible Professional archaeological monitoring requested
Dear Ms. Timmons:
We have reviewed the materials forwarded to our office for the proposed project referenced above. The project
area has a high probability for containing archaeological resources_ It is near the historic confluence of the
Duwamish River and Black River and is approximately 600 feet from a previously recorded archaeological site.
Please be aware that archaeological sites are protected from knowing disturbance on both public and private lands
in Washington States. Both RCW 27.44 and RCW 27.53.060 require that a person obtain a permit from our
Department before excavating, removing, or altering Native American human remains or archaeological resources
in Washington_ Failure to obtain a permit is punishable by civil fines and other penalties under RCW 27.53.095,
and by criminal prosecution under RCW 27.53.090.
Chapter 27.53.095 RCW allows the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation to issue civil penalties
for the violation of this statute in an amount up to five thousand dollars, in addition to site restoration costs and
investigative costs. Also, these remedies do not prevent concerned tribes from undertaking civil action in state or
federal court, or law enforcement agencies from undertaking criminal investigation or prosecution. Chapter
27.44.OS0 RCW allows the affected Indian Tribe to undertake civil action apart from any criminal prosecution if
burials are disturbed.
The scale of the proposed ground disturbing actions would destroy any archaeological resources present_
Identifications during construction is not a recommended detection method because inadvertent discoveries often
result in costly construction delays and damage to, the resource. Therefore, we request a professional
archaeological survey of the project area be conducted prior to ground disturbing activities. The report should be
submitted to DABP and the interested Tribes for review prior to ground disturbance. Based on the results of the
survey professional archaeological monitoring, additional archaeological work and/or a permit from DAHP may be
required.
EXHIBIT 9
If any federal funds or permits are involved Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended, and
its implementing regulations, 36CFR800, must be followed. This is a separate process from SEPA and requires
formal government -to -goverment consultation Adth the affected Tribes and this agency. Vire would appreciate
receiving any correspondence or comments from concerned tribes or other parties concerning cultural resource
issues that you receive.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project and we look forward to receiving the survey report.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (360) 586-3088 or

Re: Archaeology - Survey Requested, Possible Professional archaeological monitoring requested
Dear Ms. Timmons:
We have reviewed the materials forwarded to our office for the proposed project referenced above. The project
area has a high probability for containing archaeological resources. It is near the historic confluence of the
Duwamish River and Black River and is approximately 600 feet from a previously recorded archaeological site.
Please be aware that archaeological sites are protected from knowing disturbance on both public and private lands
in Washington States. Both RCW 27.44 and RCW 27.53.060 require that a person obtain a permit from our
Department before excavating, removing, or altering Native American human remains or archaeological resources
in Washington. Failure to obtain a permit is punishable by civil fines and other penalties under RCW 27.53.095,
and by criminal prosecution under RCW 27.53.090_
Chapter 27.53.095 RCW allows the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation to issue civil penalties
for the violation of this statute in an amount up to five thousand dollars, in addition to site restoration costs and
investigative costs. Also, these remedies do not prevent concerned tribes from undertaking civil action in state or
federal court, or law enforcement agencies from undertaking criminal investigation or prosecution_ Chapter
27.44.050 RCW allows the affected Indian Tribe to undertake civil action apart from any criminal prosecution if
burials are disturbed.
The scale of the proposed ground disturbing actions would destroy any archaeological resources present.
Identification during construction is not a recommended detection method because inadvertent discoveries often
result in costly construction delays and damage to the resource. Therefore, we request a professional
archaeological survey of the project area be conducted prior to ground disturbing activities. The report should be
submitted to DAHP and the interested Tribes for review prior to ground disturbance. Based on the results of the
survey professional archaeological monitoring, additional archaeological work and/or a permit from DAHP may be
required.
EXHIBIT 6
If any federal funds or permits are involved Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended, and
its implementing regulations, 36CFR800, must be followed. This is a separate process from SEPA and requires
formal government -to -government consultation with the affected Tribes and this agency_ We would appreciate
receiving any correspondence or comments from concerned tribes or other parties concerning cultural resource
issues that you receive.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project and we look forward to receiving the survey report.

RE: PRE -DEMOLITION HAZARDOUS MATERIALS SURVEY A �,� T���
11'I
BIG 5 SPORTING GOODS
508/510 SOUTH 3RD STREET ��
RENTON, WASHINGTON yl
On May 11, 2011, RGA Environmental (RGA), as a subconsultant to Landau Associates,
completed a pre -demolition Hazardous Materials Survey at the Big 5 Sporting Goods retail store at 508
and 510 South 3`d Street, Renton, Washington 98055 (subject property). The survey included a good -faith
inspection for suspected asbestos -containing materials (ACMs), possible polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)
light ballasts and mercury -containing fluorescent light tubes, potential radioactive materials in exit signs,
and chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) -containing equipment, and lead waste stream analysis. The survey was
completed by Ms. Emily Kahler (Certification #11-2382; Expiration Date: May S, 2012) and Mr. Luke
Swart (Certification #11-2387; Expiration Date: May 8, 2012) of RGA. A copy of the RGA survey report
is attached. Table 1 provides a summary of the survey results. The results of the survey areas follows:
+ Eight (8) confirmed ACMs and four (4) assumed ACMs were identified in the onsite
building.
+ One (1) toxicity characteristic leachate procedure (TCLP) sample was collected from the
building to determine if the demolition waste stream would be considered hazardous relative
to lead. The reported lead concentration was less than the 5 milligrams per liter threshold for
determination that the waste stream is hazardous based on lead content; therefore, the
demolition waste stream for the building would be considered non -hazardous relative to lead.
• Five hundred and seven (507) 4 -inch fluorescent light tubes (regulated due to possible
mercury content) were observed in the building.
• One hundred and thirty (I 30) suspect PCB -containing light ballasts were observed in the
building.
+ Two (2) exit signs that could contain radioactive material were observed in the building.
• Two (2) free-standing refrigerators and one (1) drinking fountain with coolant fluids that
could contain CFCs were observed in the building.
In summary, ACMs were identified in the building. ACMs are required to be removed and
disposed of by a Certified Asbestos Worker prior to any demolition, renovation, or remodeling that would
disturb the materials. Materials containing less than I percent asbestos are not regulated for disposal
purposes; however, they are regulated by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the

SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL: The applicant, King County Library System (KCLS), is requesting Hearing Examiner Site PReview, a
Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit, Environmental (SEPA) Review and a Parking Modification for the construction of a new
15,083 square foot public library. The project site consists of three parcels containing a total of 24,070 square feet of Center
Downtown (CD) zoned property. There is an existing retail structure on the west end of the site, formerly used by Big5, and an
associated parking lot in the center of the site which is proposed for demolition/removal as part of the proposal. Additionally,
Gateway Park is located on the eastern portion of the site which would be redesigned as part of the proposal in order to create an
entry plaza for the new library_ The proposed restriping of the existing parking area, to the north within a City of Seattle Cedar
River Pipeline easement, would create two additional parking spaces along with the addition of 6 new stalls, resulting in a total of
50 onsite parking stalls. The applicant is requesting a parking modification in order to decrease the minimum of parking spaces
required onsite from 60 to 50 stalls. Access to the site is proposed via two curb cuts; one along Morris Ave 5 through to Logan Ave
S. There are no critical areas located on site.

SUBJECT: Renton Downtown Library
510 — S. P Street
LUA 12-022, ECF
I have reviewed the application for the Renton Downtown Library located at 510 — S. 3rd Street and have
the following comments:
EXISTING CONDITIONS
WATER: There is a 1 -inch domestic water meter serving the existing building. There is an existing 12 -
inch water main in S. 3 d Street. The available de -rated fire flow from the 12 -inch main
fronting the site in S. 3`d Street exceeds 3,000 gpm. Pressure available is approximately 65
psi. The proposed project is not located in an Aquifer Protection Zone.
SEWER: There is a side sewer serving the existing building.
STORM: There is a storm conveyance system in Logan Ave S.
STREETS: There are existing street improvements.
CODE REQUIREMENTS
WATER
1. The utility system development fee for water is owed if the size of the existing water meter is
increased. The proposed site plan shows a new 1-% inch domestic water meter. The system
development fee for water, based on the site plan with a credit for the existing meter, will be $5,590.00.

Renton Downtown Library — LUA 12-022
Page 2 of 3
May 7, 2012
5. The preliminary fire flow requirement per the Fire Marshal's office is 2,250 gpm. All new construction
must have fire hydrants capable of delivering a minimum of 1,000 gpm each. One primary hydrant is
required within 150 feet from the buildings and two additional hydrants are required within 300 feet of
the building. One new hydrant is required and is shown on the plan. Final location will require approval
by the Fire Department to meet the city standards. Any existing hydrants counted as fire protection will
be required to be retrofitted with a quick disconnect Storz fitting, if not already in place and subject to
verification by the Fire Department.
SEWER
1. A utility system development fee for sewer is owed if the size of the existing water meter is
increased. The proposed site plan shows a new 1-% inch domestic water meter. The system
development sewer fee based on the site plan with credit for the existing meter will be $3,977.00. The
system development fee is payable prior to issuance of the construction permit.
2. The City will proceed with the optional plan of replacing the main through the new library property
and installing a manhole where the existing bend in the existing main is located. SPU is working on
permitting for this. This part of the work will be required to be installed by the developer. The City will
follow behind this work and re -line the portion of the main under the remaining buildings.
SURFACE WATER
1. A drainage plan and drainage report is included with the site plan application. The report has
complied with the 2009 King County Surface Water Manual and the 2009 City of Renton Amendments to
the KCSWM, Chapter 1 and 2. All core and any special requirements were discussed in the report. Based
on the City's flow control map, this site falls within the Flow Control Duration Standard, Existing
Conditions. The project is exempt from flow control and water quality requirements.
2. A geotechnical report prepared by Geotechnical Engineering Services, dated November 2, 2011,
was submitted with the application. Information on the water table and soil permeability was included
in the report. Since the project is exempt from flow control and water quality, the engineer is proposing
to tightline the roof and footing drains to a new 8 -inch PVC storm pipe that will cross the Seattle
pipeline to the north and tie into an existing catch basin and storm conveyance system.
3. Surface Water System Development fees of $.405 per square foot of new impervious surface will
apply but not less than $1,012. The Surface Water SDC fee is payable prior to issue of the construction
permit.
TRANSPORTATION

FROM: Corey Thomas, Plans Review Inspector
SUBJECT: Renton Library
Environmental Impact Comments:
The fire mitigation impact fees are currently applicable at the rate
of $0.52 per square foot of building area. Credit would be granted
for the existing building to be removed.
Code Related Comments:
The preliminary fire flow requirement is 2,250 gpm based on a fully
fire sprinklered building. Three fire hydrants are required. One fire
hydrant is required within 150 -feet of the proposed building and two
hydrants are required within 300 -feet. Existing hydrants can be
counted toward the requirement as long as they meet current code
including 5 -inch storz fittings. It appears adequate fire flow exists in
this area.
2. Both an approved fire alarm and fire sprinkler system is required
throughout the building. Separate plans and permits are required
to be submitted to the Renton Fire Department for review and
permitting. Fire alarm system shall be fully addressable and full
detection is required. A direct outside door is required to the fire
sprinkler riser control room.
3. An annual place of assembly permit is required for occupancies
exceeding 50 persons. An automated external defibrillator (AED)
is required if the occupancy load exceeds 300 persons.
4. Fire department apparatus access is adequate.
5. An electronic site plan is required to be submitted to the
Renton Fire Department for pre -fire planning purposes prior to
occupancy of the building.

RE: PRE -DEMOLITION HAZARDOUS MATERIALS SURVEY Q �p,� Ta\
BIG 5 SPORTING GOODS �(}��
508/510 SOUTH 3RD STREET��
RENTON, WASHINGTON
On May 11, 2011, RGA Environmental (RGA), as a subconsultant to Landau Associates,
completed a pre -demolition Hazardous Materials Survey at the Big 5 Sporting Goods retail store at 508
and 510 South P Street, Renton, Washington 98055 (subject property). The survey included a good -faith
inspection for suspected asbestos -containing materials (ACMs), possible polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)
light ballasts and mercury -containing fluorescent light tubes, potential radioactive materials in exit signs,
and chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) -containing equipment, and lead waste stream analysis. The survey was
completed by Ms. Emily Kahler (Certification #11-2382; Expiration Date: May 8, 2012) and Mr. Luke
Swart (Certification #11-2387; Expiration Date: May 8, 2012) of RGA. A copy of the RGA survey report
is attached. Table 1 provides a summary of the survey results. The results of the survey are as follows:
• Eight (8) confirmed ACMs and four (4) assumed ACMs were identified in the onsite
building.
• One (1) toxicity characteristic leacbate procedure (TCLP) sample was collected from the
building to determine if the demolition waste stream would be considered hazardous relative
to lead. The reported lead concentration was less than the 5 milligrams per liter threshold for
determination that the waste stream is hazardous based on lead content; therefore, the
demolition waste stream for the building would be considered non -hazardous relative to lead.
• Five hundred and seven (507) 4 -inch fluorescent light tubes (regulated due to possible
mercury content) were observed in the building.
+ One hundred and thirty (130) suspect PCB -containing light ballasts were observed in the
building.
• Two (2) exit signs that could contain radioactive material were observed in the building.
• Two (2) free-standing refrigerators and one (1) drinking fountain with coolant fluids that
could contain CFCs were observed in the building.
In summary, ACMs were identified in the building. ACMs are required to be removed and
disposed of by a Certified Asbestos Worker prior to any demolition, renovation, or remodeling that would
disturb the materials. Materials containing less than 1 percent asbestos are not regulated for disposal
purposes; however, they are regulated by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the
130 2nd Avenue South . Edmonds, WA 98020 • (425) 778-0907 . fax (425) 778-6409 • www.landauine.com
Washington industrial Safety and Health Act for worker safety considerations. More specific
recommendations regarding the handling of ACMs are provided in the attached RGA report.
Based on TCLP analysis, the demolition debris will be considered non -hazardous relative to lead.
More specific recommendations regarding the handling of lead -containing materials are provided in the
attached RGA report.
Potential PCB -containing light ballasts, fluorescent lights, and equipment with possible
radioactive material or CFCs were also Identified in the building. These materials should be disposed of
or recycled in accordance with all applicable federal and state regulations.

The full scope of sampling is presented in Section 5.
Caution should be used during the demolition to ensure that additional materials are not
uncovered. This report should be presented to any contractor or subcontractor
performing work at 510 South V Street in Renton, WA. In the event that additional
materials are discovered, the material should be sampled and analyzed to determine if it
contains asbestos prior to disturbance.
1.2 Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Process (TCLP)
The result of the TCLP sample for the commercial/residential building located at 510
South 3`d Street in Renton, Washington was below the 5 mg/L threshold for
determination of the waste stream as hazardous with respect to lead. Therefore, the
material from the demolition of this building may be disposed of as general demolition
debris.
1.3 Mercury Light Tubes
Five hundred and seven (507) 4' fluorescent light tubes were observed in the structure.
1.4 PCB Ballasts
One hundred and thirty (130) ballasts which could potentially contain PCB's were
observed in the structure.
1.5 Exit Signs
Two (2) exit signs that could potentially contain radioactive material were observed in the
structure.
1.6 Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's)
Two (2) free standing refrigerators and one (1) drinking fountain with coolant fluids which
could potentially contain CFC's were observed in the structure.
This survey was conducted to document the presence and locations of hazardous
materials (asbestos, lead, mercury light tubes, PCB ballasts, exit signs and CFCs) in
and on the structure located at 510 South 3"d Street in Renton, Washington for the
purposes of demolition. Accessible building areas were visited and samples were
collected of building materials suspected to contain asbestos (wallboard, flooring
materials and miscellaneous materials). All accessible building components were also
sampled for the purpose of collecting a TCLP for waste stream analysis with respect to
lead. See Table 2 for a list of materials sampled for asbestos.
Efforts were made during the inspection to find all asbestos containing materials in the
structure. Limited penetrations were made through walls, .floors, and ceilings to identify
concealed materials. If suspect materials are identified in wall cavities or under the
building, any demolition work should halt and an accredited AHERA inspector should
LAND27664 haz mat Survey Final Report.doc 7
sample the material for the presence of asbestos. Any materials not sampled and
properly identified must be sampled by an AHERA inspector prior to disturbance.
All contractors working on the building site must review this inspection report prior to
participating in the renovation, per WAC 296-62-07721 "Communication of Hazards to
Employees."
3.1 Asbestos
The intent of the asbestos survey is to comply with governing asbestos regulations
required by the State of Washington and Puget Sound Clean Air Agency (PSCAA). The
State of Washington requires a written "good faith inspection" for identification of
asbestos -containing materials prior to any remodeling, maintenance, or demolition work.
During demolition and construction work it is the responsibility of the owner and the
contractors to make this survey document available to all concerned parties who may be
handling the building materials.
Additionally, PSCAA requires that a copy of the written asbestos survey be made
available on-site for inspection by a PSCAA Control Officer during construction and
demolition work. The survey is required to be performed in accordance with 40 CFR
763.86. These federal standards require inspections to be conducted by an EPA/AHERA
accredited building inspector with analysis to be provided by an asbestos laboratory
accredited by the National Bureau of Standards. The requirements are described in
Article 1 and Article 4 of PSCAA's Asbestos Control Standards. All survey work was
conducted in compliance with the above mentioned standards.
3.2 Lead
The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries defines a lead-based paint to
be a coating with any detectable lead. The United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) have
defined a lead-based paint as any coating containing greater than 0.5% lead or 1.0
Mg/CM2 of lead.
In Washington, workers disturbing lead -containing coatings are covered under the lead
standard (WAC 296-155-176) until shown they are not being exposed above the action
limit of 30 pg/m3 and the permissible exposure limit of 50 pg/m3. The requirements of this
standard include, but are not limited to, air monitoring, respiratory protection, medical
surveillance, lead work plan, warning signs, and wash stations.
When lead is discovered in a paint coating, worker protection and environmental
protection requirements apply to all construction activities that may disturb these
coatings. The issues surrounding the demolition of materials that have lead -containing
coatings include worker exposure, public health, and waste characterization.
3.2.1 Worker Exposure to Lead
LAND27664 haz mat Survey Final Report.doc 8
WAC 296-155-176, Lead, applies to all construction work where an employee may be
occupationally exposed to lead. Construction work includes activities such as demolition
or salvage, removal or encapsulation, and renovation of materials that contain lead.
When a worker may be exposed to lead, the employer must take the following actions
according to WAC 296-155-176:
Perform an exposure assessment for each operation where the employee may
be exposed to lead at or above 34 micrograms per cubic meter (pg/m). The
exposure assessment consists of personal air monitoring to determine
representative lead exposure levels for the work being performed;
2. During the exposure assessment for demolition operations, the employer must
provide and require to be worn half -mask air -purifying respirators equipped with
high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters and disposable clothing;
3. A designated change area which allows for separate storage areas for work and
street clothing to prevent cross contamination;
4. Hand washing facilities to allow employees to wash their hands and faces
5. Biological monitoring in the form of blood sampling and analysis for lead and zinc
protoporphyrin levels.
6. Training to include hazard communication, safety, and the limitations, proper use,
and maintenance of respirators.
In addition to the protective equipment and hygiene requirements, the employer must
attempt to reduce the levels of airborne lead through the use of engineering controls
such as ventilation and wet methods.
3.2.2 Public Health
The owner should ensure that the general public will not have access to the site during
demolition activities. In addition, controlling visible emissions (dust) will decrease the
airborne concentration of lead, thus decreasing the airborne exposure levels of the
general public and potential contamination of surrounding areas from dust migration.
3.2.3 Waste Characterization
RGA Environmental (RGA) collected samples of the proposed waste stream from the
above captioned site for the purposes of waste characterization. Waste characterization
is determined using the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Process (TCLP) which
determines the leaching potential of lead in the construction debris. A hazardous waste
is defined as a waste stream which contains leachable lead above the allowable limit of
5 parts per million (ppm).
LAND27664 haz mat Survey Final Report_doc 9
4.1 Asbestos
4.1.1 Objectives
The objective of the survey was to determine the quantity and location of building
materials (wallboard, flooring materials, etc.) that contain asbestos.
4.1.2 Asbestos Sampling Protocol
This survey was conducted using a protocol adapted from the Asbestos Hazard
Emergency Response Act (AHERA). The protocol is as follows:
Group materials into homogeneous sampling areas based on visual observations
and information provided about building renovations.
2. Quantify each homogeneous sampling area and collect samples from each area
using the "3-5-7" criteria for surfacing material to determine the number of
samples needed. Quantify and collect a minimum of three samples of each
thermal system insulation. The number of samples collected of miscellaneous
materials was determined by the inspector.
3. Samples were collected from areas of easy access and minimum disturbance to
building occupants.
4. Samples of each material were taken to the substrate, ensuring that all
components of the material were included.
5. Sampling was performed by an AHERA accredited building inspector.
4.1.3 Asbestos Sampling Procedure
1. Label sample container with unique identification number. Record sample
number, sample location, type of material, and approximate material quantity on
data form.
2. Extract sample using a clean knife or other tool to collect approximately one
tablespoon of the material. Penetrate all layers of material.
3. Place sample in a container and tightly seal it.
4. Clean tools with wet wipes. Clean any material debris from sampling area.
4.1.4 Asbestos Laboratory Analysis
The bulk samples were analyzed by the RGA laboratory using polarized light microscopy
(PLM) with dispersion staining in accordance with US EPA method 6001R-931116 as
specified in 40 CFR Chapter 1 (7-1-93 edition) Part 763, Subpart F, Appendix A, pages
LAN D27664 haz mat Survey Final Report.doc 10
499-504. Polarizing light microscopy quantifies asbestos concentrations at between
100% and 1 % detection levels. Levels below 1 % can only be stated as "trace." The RGA
laboratory is a member of the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP), NVLAP Code #200613-0. Samples were not analyzed by point count to
determine asbestos concentrations.
For samples containing more than one separable layer of materials, the laboratory report
will include findings for each layer (labeled L-1 for layer one and L-2 for layer two, etc.)
and a total percentage for the entire sample, if applicable. The asbestos concentration in
the sample is determined by visual estimation.
4.2 TCLP
4.2.1 Objectives
The objective of the TCLP sampling was to collect samples of the proposed waste
stream from the above captioned site for the purposes of waste characterization. Waste
characterization is determined using the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Process
(TCLP) which determines the leaching potential of lead in the construction debris. A
hazardous waste is defined as a waste stream which contains leachable lead above the
allowable limit of 5 parts per million (ppm).

5.2 TCLP
The result of the TCLP sample for the commercial building located at 510 South 3`6
Street in Renton, Washington was below the 5 mglL threshold for determination of the
waste stream as hazardous with respect to lead. Therefore, the material from the
demolition of this building may be disposed of as general demolition debris.
5.3 Mercury Light Tubes
Five hundred and seven (507) 4' fluorescent light tubes were observed in the structure.
5.4 PCB Ballasts
One hundred and thirty (130) ballasts which could potentially contain PCB's were
observed in the structure_
5.5 Exit Signs
Two (2) exit signs that could potentially contain radioactive material were observed in the
structure.
5.6 Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's)
Two (2) free standing refrigerators and one (1) drinking fountain with coolant fluids which
could potentially contain CFC's were observed in the structure.
Extreme caution should be used during any demolition activities to ensure that additional
materials are not uncovered. This report should be presented to any contractor or
subcontractor participating in renovation or demolition work at the commerciallresidential
building located at 510 South 3rd Street in Renton, WA. In the event that additional
materials are discovered, the material should be sampled and analyzed to determine if it
contains asbestos prior to disturbance.
6.1 Asbestos
Asbestos -containing materials are required to be removed and disposed of in
accordance with Washington State Regulations prior to any demolition, renovation, or
remodeling that would disturb these materials. Washington State Department of Labor
and Industries and PSCAA require that the abatement be performed using Certified
Asbestos Workers under the direct on-site supervision of a Certified Asbestos
Supervisor.
RGA recommends that a Certified Asbestos Project Designer design any asbestos
abatement job to ensure that the job is completed according to regulation standards.

RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Re Washington
INTRODUCTION
General
This report presents the results of GeoEngineers' geotechnical engineering services for the
Renton Downtown Library in Renton, Washington. The location of the site and general
configuration of the proposed building are shown on the Vicinity Map and Site Plan, Figures 1
and 2, respectively.
Project Description
The Renton Downtown Library site comprises about 0.25 acres and is currently occupied by an
existing masonry building. The existing retail structure (approximately 12,185 square feet)
occupies the entire lot, with associated street parking along South 3rd Street and in the alley just
north of the structure. The property is bordered by Gateway Park and its associated parking lot to
the east, South 31d Street to the south, an existing structure (St. Paul Ministries) to the west, and an
alley to the north.
The development is currently planned to be a new library building with no below grade levels.
This work will require demolition of the existing masonry building.
Purpose and Scope
The purpose of our services is to evaluate soil and groundwater conditions as a basis for
developing design criteria for the geotechnical aspects of the Renton Downtown Library. Field
explorations were performed to identify and evaluate subsurface conditions at the site in order to
develop engineering recommendations for use in design of the project.
GeoEngineers' geotechnical engineering services were completed in general accordance with our
services agreement executed on September 14, 2011.
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
Subsurface conditions were evaluated through a field exploration program that consisted of
advancing two cone penetration test (CPT) probes (CPT -1 and CPT -2) to depths of 39 feet and
26 feet below existing grades, respectively. The explorations were completed on the parking lot
adjacent to the site, east of the existing masonry building, using truck -mounted equipment.
The locations of the CPT probes are shown on the Site Plan, Figure 2.
A detailed description of the field exploration program is presented in Appendix A, Field
Explorations.
PREVIOUS STUDIES
The logs of borings from the geotechnical engineering report by Geotech Consultants, Inc.
titled "Proposed Mixed -Use Building, 2XX Logan Avenue South in Renton, Washington," dated
August 26, 1997, were reviewed as part of this study. During that study, four borings (B-1, B-2, B-3

and B-4) were drilled at the site to depths of 31 to 41.5 feet. See Figure 2 for the approximate
locations of the borings. The logs of selected previous borings are presented in Appendix B.
SITE DESCRIPTION
Surface Conditions
The Renton Downtown library site is bounded by South 3,d Street to the south, Gateway Park to the
east, St. Paul Ministry Church to the west and a city street with surface parking lot to the north.
The site is currently occupied by a one story masonry structure, and a surface parking lot located
on the eastern portion of the site.
The topography at the site is relatively flat, sloping gently downward from the eastern portion of the
site, which is situated at about Elevation 36 feet, to about Elevation 34 feet along the west portion
of the site.
Several underground utilities are located on and around the site. Two City of Seattle water mains
are located north of the site, with diameters of 56 -inches and 66 -inches. Buried gas utilities are
present on the east side of the site.
Vegetation adjacent to the site consists of deciduous trees and ornamental landscaping north of
the existing building. No surface water features were observed at the site.
Subsurface Soil Conditions
The CPT results for the site indicate that the site is underlain by two main soil units, near surface
silt and clay soils and underlying alluvial sand deposits. The two soil units consisted of the
following:
0 SILT AND CLAY: Interlayered deposits of very soft to soft clay, silty clay and clayey silt were
encountered in both CPT's (CPT -1 and CPT -2) from below the pavement surface to depths of
approximately 11.5 to 15 feet below existing grades.
■ ALLUVIAL SAND DEPosrrs: Medium dense to very dense alluvial sand deposits were encountered
beneath the silt and clay soils in both explorations. The alluvial sand deposits generally consist
of sand and gravel with occasional interbedded layers of silt. The alluvial sand deposits
extended to the depth explored (both CPT explorations met refusal in very dense layers of the
alluvial sand deposits).
Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater was encountered at approximate depths ranging from 12 to 15 feet below existing
grades in borings completed in the site vicinity. Groundwater levels will vary as a function of
season, precipitation and other factors.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Summary
A summary of the primary geotechnical considerations is provided below. The summary is
presented for introductory purposes only and should be used in conjunction with the complete
recommendations presented in this report.
■ Due to the presence of both compressible and liquefiable soils in the planned building area,
the use of either deep foundations or spread foundations with ground improvement is
recommended to meet static and seismic settlement tolerances. In our opinion, the most cost
effective foundation support option is the use of ground improvement and shallow foundations.
General recommendations are provided below for ground improvement (lean augercast
columns), which is the selected ground improvement methodology.
a Shallow foundations supported on ground improved with lean augercast columns may be
designed using an allowable bearing value of 3,000 pounds per square feet (psf). The
allowable bearing value may be increased by one-third for short duration loads such as wind or
seismic events.
■ If ground improvement is implemented as recommended, then conventional slabs -on -grade are
appropriate.
m Because the site is underlain by potentially liquefiable soils, the site is designated as seismic
Soil Profile Type F per the 2009 International Building Code (IBC). Given that the planned
structure is expected to have a fundamental period of vibration equal to or less than
0.5 seconds, a site response analysis is not required to determine the spectral accelerations
and the site class can be determined in accordance with Section of 20.3 of ASCE 7.
Per ASCE 7, the site is best characterized as Site Class D.
m The soils encountered on site can be characterized as compressible and potentially liquefiable.
The results of our liquefaction analyses indicate that portions of the alluvial sand deposits
present below the groundwater table are potentially liquefiable during a design earthquake.
Liquefaction -induced settlement is estimated to range up to 3 inches for the design
earthquake level of shaking.
Our specific geotechnical recommendations are presented in the following sections of this report.
Earthquake Engineering
General
GeoEngineers evaluated the site for seismic hazards including liquefaction. Our analyses indicate
that the site has a low to moderate risk of liquefaction induced settlement during a design level
earthquake. The liquefaction hazard and building code site coefficients are discussed in detail
below_
Llquelaction
Liquefaction refers to the condition by which vibration or shaking of the ground, usually from
earthquake forces, results in the development of excess pore pressures in saturated soils with
subsequent loss of strength in the deposit of soil so affected. In general, soils that are susceptible
GEoENGINEER November 2, 2011 Page
Fiervo 1784-015.00
RENTON OO"""OWN LIBRARY Renton. Washington
to liquefaction include very loose to medium dense clean to silty sands and some silts that are
below the water table.
The results of our analyses indicate that a portion of the medium dense to very dense alluvial
sands deposits encountered in the explorations have a low to moderate potential for liquefaction
during a design earthquake event.
The evaluation of liquefaction potential is a complex procedure and is dependent on numerous site
parameters, including soil grain size, soil density, site geometry, static stress, and the design
ground acceleration. Typically, the liquefaction potential of a site is evaluated by comparing the
cyclic stress ratio (CSR), which is the ratio of the cyclic shear stress induced by an earthquake
to the initial effective overburden stress, to the cyclic resistance ratio (CRR), which is
the soils resistance to liquefaction. Estimation of the CSR and the CRR were completed
using empirical methods (Youd, et al., 2001). Estimated ground settlement resulting from
earthquake -induced liquefaction was analyzed using empirical procedures based on correlations
from the CPT results (Tokimatsu and Seed, 1987; Ishihara and Yoshimine, 1992).
Our analyses indicate that during a design earthquake, settlements caused by liquefaction of
portion of the alluvial sand deposits encountered on the explorations could range up to 3 inches.
Latera! Spreading
Lateral spreading involves lateral displacement of large, surficial blocks of soil as the underlying
soil layer liquefies. Because there is a potential for liquefaction, there is also risk of lateral
spreading. Due to the fact that there is no free surface near the project vicinity, the liquefiable soil
layers are relatively thin, and the geographic distance to Cedar River, the potential for lateral
spreading is considered to be low for the Renton Downtown Library site.
Other Seismic Hazards
Due to the location of the site and the site's topography, the risk of adverse impacts resulting from
seismically induced slope instability, differential settlement, or surface displacement due to
faulting is considered to be low.
2009 IBC Seismic Design Information
We recommend the use of the following 2009 IBC parameters for soil profile type, short period
spectral response acceleration (Ss), 1 -second period spectral response acceleration (Si) and
seismic coefficients (FA and Fv) for the project site.

Foundation Support
General
The feasibility of deep foundations and several ground improvement methods was explored for the
Renton Downtown Library building. The proximity to nearby structures precluded the use of driven
piles, stone columns and rammed aggregate piers because of the associated noise and vibrations.
While augercast piles are considered feasible, requirements for full -depth reinforcement in
liquefiable soils combined with cost of piles, pile caps and grade beams for this relatively light
structure made this not the preferred foundation support option. We also explored the feasibility of
a mat foundation bearing on native soil, but the concern for excessive foundation settlements
under static and seismic loading made this not the preferred option. After exploring these options,
we concluded that shallow foundations bearing on improved soil is the preferred foundation
alternative. More detailed recommendations are presented below.
Ground Improvement
General
Due to the presence of both compressible and liquefiable soils in the planned building area, the
use of either deep foundations or spread foundations with ground improvement is recommended
to meet static and seismic settlement tolerances. After exploring several options, the preferred
foundation support option is the use of ground improvement and shallow foundations. General
recommendations are provided below for ground improvement (lean augercast columns) which is
the preferred ground improvement methodology. Should augercast piles be preferred by the
project team, GeoEngineers should be contacted to develop augercast pile design
recommendations.
For the Renton Downtown Library site, the purposes of ground improvement are twofold: the
ground improvement will: 1) mitigate potential liquefaction hazards in the building area and
2) mitigate potential static settlement resulting from consolidation of the near surface cohesive
soils. The benefits of ground improvement for this site include:
■ Ground improvement will allow for conventional shallow foundations and slabs -on -grade both
of which are anticipated to result in more efficient and more cost effective construction.
Without ground improvement, a structural slab with suspended utilities may be necessary to
reduce post earthquake settlement of the slab -on -grade.
■ Ground improvement will mitigate the liquefaction potential in the improved zone and as a
result, the near surface improved soil zone will act to minimize differential settlement within
the building area.
■ Ground improvement will mitigate the potential static settlement resulting from consolidation
of the near surface cohesive soils under the building loads.
Lean Augercast Columns
Lean concrete augercast columns installed to an approximate depth of 20 to 30 feet below site
grades on a variable grid pattern have been selected as the preferred ground improvement
technique for the Renton Downtown Library site. The design concept with the use of lean concrete
augercast columns is similar to that of compaction grouting, stone columns (vibro replacement) or
GMENGINEERNovember 2, 2011 Page 5
FUN,,) 1763-015-00
RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Renton, Washington
rammed aggregate piers (also known as Geopiers)—to densify and reinforce the
compressible/potentially liquefiable soils. The purpose of the lean concrete augercast columns
placed in a grid pattern is to provide a significantly higher strength material capable of dissipating
building loads in a less concentrated manor and to provide a `block' of a composite soil and lean
concrete material that will reduce the potential for differential settlement during seismic loading.
Advantages with the use of lean augercast columns include: 1) lean concrete augercast columns
are more economical than augercast piles (shorter length, no reinforcement, and allows for the use
of conventional spread footings/slabs-on-grade), 2) there is minimal disturbance of adjacent
structures during installation, 3) the equipment (augercast pile equipment) provides a cased hole
for installation of the column, and 4) because there is a lower level of construction noise (i.e. no
pile driving), there will be lesser impacts to nearby businesses/residences/buried utilities during
construction.
Alternative ground improvement technologies are not preferred for the Downtown Renton Library
site for the following reasons:
a Stone columns have a high potential for damage to adjacent improvements due to the
proximity of the adjacent improvements to the site.
a Rammed aggregate piers are not practical below the water table due to caving of the sands
below the water table.
a Compaction grouting is considered problematic due to the difficulty in achieving a column of
grout in the near surface soils consistently (due to the inability to build sufficient pressure to
displace the existing soils).
Lean augercast columns are constructed using a continuous flight hollow stem auger attached to a
set of leads supported by a crane. The first step in the column casting process consists of drilling
the auger into the ground to the specified tip elevation of the column. Grout is then pumped
through the hollow stem auger upon steady withdrawal of the auger and replaces the soils
removed on the flights of the auger. The benefit of using lean augercast columns in this site is that
the auger provides support for the soils during the column installation process, thus eliminating the
need for temporary casing or drilling fluid.
The layout/design of the lean augercast columns will be completed once the building design has
been finalized. For preliminary design and pricing purposes, we provide the following preliminary
design information for ground improvement:
a 18 to 24 -inch -diameter columns;
a Use a 5 to 7 foot triangular lean augercast column spacing for column, strip, and mat
foundations;
a Use a S to 10 foot triangular column spacing for slab -on -grade areas;
a Lean augercast columns will extend from the bottom of foundation elevation to approximately
20 to 30 feet below existing site grades; and
■ Access for the lean augercast column equipment (crane and grout truck) will be necessary.
Given the soft condition of the near surface soils, construction access improvements will likely

Fide No. 1784-015-00
RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Re Washington
be required. This can consist of leaving the existing slab -on -grade and pave ment/h a rdscape in
place as a working surface or removal of the pave ment/sla b -on -gra de/ha rdsca pe and a layer
of the near surface soils and replacing them with granular fill, crushed rock or quarry spalls.
Alternatively, the use of cement treatment can be used to provide a trafficable working surface.
GeoEngineers can assist the project team with preparation of the ground improvement plan and
specifications once the foundation layout and building loads have been finalized.
Shallow Foundations
As described above, shallow foundations bearing on ground improved with lean concrete augercast
columns is the preferred foundation support system. The following sections provide
recommendations for design of shallow foundations.
Allowable Bearing Pressure
For foundations constructed as recommended in this report and bearing on improved ground, we
recommend using an allowable bearing pressure of 3 kips per square foot (ksf) for shallow
foundations. The allowable soil bearing pressure applies to the total of dead and long-term live
loads and may be increased by up to one-third for wind or seismic loads. The allowable soil bearing
pressures are net values.
Settlement
Provided that loose soil is removed and that the subgrade is prepared as recommended under
"Construction Considerations" below, we estimate that the total static settlement of shallow
foundations will be about 1 inch or less. The settlements will occur rapidly, essentially as loads are
applied. differential settlements between footings could be half of the total settlement. !Vote that
smaller settlements will result from lower applied loads.
Size and Embedment
We recommend that the exterior footings be founded a minimum of 18 inches below the lowest
adjacent grade. Interior footings should be founded a minimum of 12 inches below top of slab.
Continuous wall footings and individual column footings should have minimum widths of 24 inches.
Lateral Resistance
Lateral foundation loads may be resisted by passive resistance on the sides of footings and by
friction on the base of the shallow foundations. For shallow foundations supported on improved
ground, the allowable frictional resistance may be computed using a coefficient of friction of 0.35
applied to vertical dead -load forces.
The allowable passive resistance may be computed using an equivalent fluid density of
300 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) (triangular distribution). These values are appropriate for
foundation elements that are surrounded by structural fill.
The above coefficient of friction and passive equivalent fluid density values incorporate a factor of
safety of about 1.5.
GEoENGINEERSNovember2, 2011 Page 7
F€Ee No. 1764-015-00
RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Renton, Washington
Construction Considerations
We recommend that the condition of all subgrade areas be observed by GeoEngineers to evaluate
whether the work is completed in accordance with our recommendations and whether the
subsurface conditions are as anticipated.
If soft areas are present at the footing subgrade elevation, the soft areas should be removed and
replaced with lean concrete or structural fill at the direction of GeoEngineers. In such instances,
the zone of structural fill should extend laterally beyond the footing edges a horizontal distance at
least equal to the thickness of the fill.
The near surface soils are susceptible to softening from water or construction traffic. If necessary,
we recommend that the contractor be prepared to pour a mud mat consisting of lean concrete
across the exposed foundation subgrade to protect it from softening during wet weather conditions
or where groundwater seepage is present.
Construction Dewatering
Dewatering during construction is not anticipated except for deep utility trenches. Based on the
soil conditions and our experience in the area, we expect that groundwater in excavations less than
about 1 to 2 feet below the static groundwater level can be controlled by open pumping using
sump pumps. If excavations deeper than 2 feet below the water table are required, GeoEngineers
should be contacted to provide guidance to the project team regarding temporary dewatering.
Foundation Drains
We recommend that a perimeter foundation drain be installed around the building. The perimeter
drain should be provided with cleanouts and should consist of a 4 -inch -diameter perforated pipe
placed on a 4 -inch -thick bed of, and surrounded by 6 inches of, drainage aggregate enclosed in a
non -woven geotextile fabric such as Mirafi 14ON (or approved equivalent) to prevent fine soil from
migrating into the drain material. Gradation recommendations for the drainage aggregate are
presented below in the "Earthwork" section of this report.
We recommend that the drainpipe consist of either heavy -wall solid pipe (SDR -35 polyvinyl
chloride [PVC], or equivalent) or rigid corrugated smooth interior polyethylene pipe (ADS W12, or
equivalent). We also recommend against using flexible tubing for foundation drainpipes.
The perimeter drain should be sloped to drain by gravity, if practicable, to a suitable discharge
point, preferably a storm drain. We recommend that the cleanouts be covered and be placed in
flush -mounted utility boxes. Water collected in roof downspout lines must not be routed to the
foundation drain lines.
Slab -on -Grade Floors
Subgrade Preparation
Given the soft nature of the near surface soils, it is anticipated that improvement will be required to
provide access for the ground improvement equipment (crawler crane). This can consist of
construction of a granular fill (sand and gravel, crushed rock, shoulder ballast, or quarry spalls)
layer at the site or the use of cement treatment. GeoEngineers recommends that site grading be
completed such that the final grade of the improved site access (top of the granular fill or cement

RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Re Washington
treated soil) coincide with the slab -on -grade subgrade elevation. This will allow for the site access
improvement layer to provide firm support for the capillary break layer to be placed below the slab -
on -grades.
Following construction of the ground improvement, below slab utilities, and shallow foundations,
the exposed subgrade should be evaluated. Proof -roiling with heavy, rubber -tired construction
equipment should be used for this purpose during dry weather and if access for this equipment is
practical. Probing should be used to evaluate the subgrade during periods of wet weather or if
access is not feasible for construction equipment. The exposed soil should be firm and unyielding,
and without significant groundwater. Disturbed areas should be recompacted if possible or
removed and replaced with compacted structural fill.
We recommend that the slabs be supported on a 6 -inch thick capillary break layer (described
below in Design Parameters) overlying a _6 -inch thick layer of compacted granular structural fill
meeting the requirements of Mineral Aggregate Type 17 (bank run gravel), or Minder Aggregate
Type 22 (5/a4nch crushed gravel), City of Seattle Standard Specification 9-03.16.
Design Parameters
Conventional slabs may be supported on -grade, provided the subgrade soils are prepared as
recommended in the "Subgrade Preparation" section above. For slabs designed as a beam on an
elastic foundation, a modulus of subgrade reaction of 150 pounds per cubic inch (pci) may be used
for subgrade soils prepared as recommended.
We recommend that the slab -on -grade floors be underlain by a 6 -inch -thick capillary break
consisting of material meeting the requirements of Mineral Aggregate Type 22 (5/s -inch crushed
gravel), City of Seattle Standard Specification 9-03.16, with the exception that this material should
have less than 10 percent sand and less than 3 percent fines.
Provided that loose soil is removed and the subgrade is prepared as recommended, we estimate
that slabs -on -grade will not settle appreciably under static loading.
A vapor barrier should be used below slab -on -grade floors located in occupied portions of the
building. Specification of the vapor barrier requires consideration of the performance expectations
of the occupied space, the type of flooring planned and other factors, and is typically completed by
other members of the project team.
Earthwork
Excavation Considerations
Interbedded layers of soft to medium stiff silts and clays and loose sand with variable amounts of
silt were observed in the upper 10 to 15 feet on the explorations. We anticipate that these soils
may be excavated with conventional excavation equipment, such as trackhoes or dozers.

RENTON DO""' -OWN LIBRARY Renton, Washington
Clearing and Site Preparation
Construction of the Renton Downtown Library site will require demolition of the existing building,
parking areas, sidewalks, and other appurtenant structures. Concrete and asphalt may be recycled
and reused as structural fill; otherwise it should be removed from the site along with other
construction debris. All existing utilities should be removed from the building footprint and
rerouted if needed.
Areas to be developed or graded should be cleared of surface and subsurface deleterious matter
including any debris, shrubs, trees and associated stumps and roots.
Subgrade Preparation
The exposed subgrade in hardscape and pavement areas at the site should be evaluated after site
excavation is complete. Disturbed areas below slabs and foundations should be recompacted if
the subgrade soil consists of granular material. If the subgrade soils consist of disturbed silt, it will
likely be necessary to remove and replace the disturbed soil with structural fill unless the silt can
be adequately moisture -conditioned and compacted.
Structural Rif
Fill placed to support structures, placed behind retaining structures, and placed below pavements
and sidewalks will need to be specified as structural fill as described below:
■ Structural fill placed behind retaining walls should meet the requirements of Mineral Aggregate
Type 17 (bank run gravel), City of Seattle Standard Specification 9-03.16.
■ Structural fill placed below the capillary break layer for slabs -on -grade should meet the
requirements of Mineral Aggregate Type 17 (bank run gravel), City of Seattle Standard
Specification 9-03.16.
■ Structural fill placed within utility trenches and below pavement and sidewalk areas should
meet the requirements of common borrow (WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.14(3)).
Common borrow will be suitable for fill if placed during dry weather. if structural fill is
placed during wet weather, it should consist of gravel borrow (WSDOT Standard
Specification 9-03.14(1)), with the added exception that the fines content, material passing the
U.S. No. 200 sieve, should not exceed 5 percent.
■ Structural fill placed around foundation and wall drains should meet the requirements of gravel
backfill for drains (WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.12(4)).
m Structural fill placed for a granular work pad should consist of shoulder ballast conforming to
WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.9(2) or approved alternative.
■ Structural fill placed as crushed surfacing base course below pavements and sidewalks
should meet the requirements of crushed surfacing base course (WSDOT Standard
Specification 9-03.9(3)).
ON-SITE soils. The on-site soils contain relatively high fines content and moisture content expected
to exceed the optimum moisture content. The on-site soils typically do not meet the requirements
for common borrow and will be unsuitable for use as structural fill.
Page 10 November2, 2011 Geo£ngineers, Inc,
File ka. 1784 415-00
RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Re Washington
FILL PLACEMENT AND COMPACTION CRITERIA. Structural fill should be mechanically compacted to a firm,
non -yielding condition. Structural fill should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 1 foot in
thickness. Each lift should be conditioned to the proper moisture content and compacted to the
specified density before placing subsequent lifts. Structural fill should be compacted to the
following criteria:
■ Structural fill placed in building areas (supporting foundations or slab -on -grade floors) and in
pavement and sidewalk areas (including utility trench backfill) should be compacted to at least
95 percent of the maximum dry density (MDD) estimated in accordance with ASTM D 1557.
■ Structural fill placed against subgrade walls should be compacted to between 90 and
92 percent of the MOD. Care should be taken when compacting fill against subsurface walls to
avoid over -compaction and hence overstressing the walls.
We recommend that a GeoEngineers representative be present during proof -rolling and/or probing
of the exposed subgrade soils in building and pavement areas, and during placement of structural
fill. We will evaluate the adequacy of the subgrade soils and identify areas needing further work,
perform in-place moisture -density tests in the fill to verify compliance with the compaction
specifications, and advise on any modifications to the procedures that may be appropriate for the
prevailing conditions.
WEATHER CONSIDERATIONS. The on-site soils contain a sufficient percentage of fines (silt and clay) to
be moisture -sensitive. When the moisture content of these soils is more than a few percent above
the optimum moisture content, these soils become muddy and unstable, and operation of
equipment on these soils is difficult. Additionally, disturbance of near -surface soils should be
expected if earthwork is completed during periods of wet weather. During wet weather, we
recommend that:
■ The ground surface in and around the work area should be sloped so that surface water is
directed away from the work area. The ground surface should be graded such that areas of
ponded water do not develop. The contractor should take measures to prevent surface water
from collecting in excavations and trenches. Measures should be implemented to remove
surface water from the work area.
■ Slopes with exposed soils should be covered with plastic sheeting or similar means.
■ The site soils should not be left uncompacted and exposed to moisture. Sealing the surficial
soils by rolling with a smooth -drum roller prior to periods of precipitation will reduce the extent
to which these soils become wet or unstable.
• Construction traffic should be restricted to specific areas of the site, preferably areas that are
surfaced with materials not susceptible to wet weather disturbance.
■ Construction activities should be scheduled so that the length of time that soils are left
exposed to moisture is reduced to the extent practicable.
Temporary Cut Slopes
Excavations are required for underground utilities. The stability of open cut slopes is a function of
soil type, groundwater seepage, slope inclination, slope height and nearby surface loads. The use
GEoENGINEERNovember 2, 2011 Page 11
Ric No. 1784,015-130
PENTON 00' _ WN LIBRARY Renton, Washington
of inadequately designed open cuts could impact the stability of adjacent work areas, existing
utilities, and endanger personnel.
The contractor performing the work has the primary responsibility for protection of workmen and
adjacent improvements. In our opinion, the contractor will be in the best position to observe
subsurface conditions continuously throughout the construction process and to respond to variable
soil and groundwater conditions. Therefore, the contractor should have the primary responsibility
for deciding whether or not to use open cut slopes for much of the excavations rather than some
form of temporary excavation support, and for establishing the safe inclination of the cut slope.
Acceptable slope inclinations for utilities and ancillary excavations should be determined during
construction. Because of the diversity of construction techniques and available shoring systems,
the design of temporary shoring is most appropriately left up to the contractor proposing to
complete the installation. Temporary cut slopes and shoring must comply with the provisions of
Title 296 WAC, Part N, "Excavation, Trenching and Shoring."
Sedimentation and Erosion Control
In our opinion, the erosion potential of the on-site soils is low to moderate. Construction activities
including stripping and grading will expose soils to the erosional effects of wind and water. The
amount and potential impacts of erosion are partly related to the time of year that construction
actually occurs. Wet weather construction will increase the amount and extent of erosion and
potential sedimentation.
Erosion and sedimentation control measures may be implemented by using a combination of
interceptor swales, straw bale barriers, silt fences and straw mulch for temporary erosion
protection of exposed soils. All disturbed areas should be finish graded and seeded as soon as
practicable to reduce the risk of erosion. Erosion and sedimentation control measures should be
installed and maintained in accordance with the requirements of the City of Renton.
Pavement Recommendations
Subgrade Preparation
We recommend that the subgrade soils in new pavement and parking areas be evaluated as
described above in the "Subgrade Preparation" portion of the "Earthwork" section of this report.
We recommend that the upper 12 inches of the existing site soils be compacted to at least
95 percent of the MDD estimated in general accordance with ASTM ❑ 1557 prior to placing
pavement section materials. If the subgrade soils are loose or soft, it may be necessary to
excavate the soils and replace them with structural fill. A layer of suitable woven geotextile fabric
may be placed over soft subgrade areas to limit the thickness of structural fill required to bridge
soft, yielding areas.
Asphalt Pavement
In light-duty pavement areas (for example, automobile parking), we recommend a pavement
section consisting of at least a 2 -inch -thick layer of 1/2 -inch hot mix asphalt (HMA) (PG 58-22)
conforming to Sections 5-04 and 9-03 of the WSDOT Standard Specifications, over a 6 -inch -thick
layer of densely compacted crushed rock base course conforming to Section 9-03.9(3) of the
WS❑OT Standard Specifications. In heavy-duty pavement areas (for example, truck traffic and
Page 12 November 2, 2011 GeoEngineers, Inc.
4e 10. 1784-015 00
RENTON DOWNTOWN LIBRARY Re Washington
materials delivery areas) around the building, we recommend a pavement section consisting of at
least a 3 -inch -thick layer of 1/2 -inch HMA (PG 58-22) over a 6 -inch -thick layer of densely compacted
crushed rock base course. We recommend that proof -rolling of the compacted base course be
observed by a representative from our firm prior to paving. Soft or yielding areas observed during
proof -rolling may require over -excavation and replacement with compacted structural fill.
The pavement sections recommended above are based on our experience with similar building
developments. Thicker asphalt sections may be needed based on the actual traffic data, intended
use and performance expectations.
Portland Cement Concrete Pavement
GeoEngineers understands that portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement might be considered for
some areas. We recommend that these pavements consist of at least 6 inches of PCC over
4 inches of crushed surfacing base course. This pavement section should bear on a subgrade
prepared as described above. The base course should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the
MDD estimated in general accordance with ASTM D 1557.
We recommend that PCC pavements incorporate construction joints and/or crack control joints
that are spaced maximum distances of 12 feet apart, center -to -center, in both the longitudinal and
transverse directions. Crack control joints may be created by placing an insert or groove into the
fresh concrete surface during finishing, or by sawcutting the concrete after its initial setup.
We recommend that the depth of the crack control joints be approximately one-fourth the thickness
of the concrete, or about 11/2 inches deep for the recommended concrete thickness of 6 inches.
We also recommend that the crack control joints be sealed with an appropriate sealant to help
restrict water infiltration into the joints.
Recommended Additional Geotechnical Services
Throughout this report, recommendations are provided where we consider additional geotechnical
services to be appropriate. These additional services are summarized below:
■ GeoEngineers should be retained to prepare the ground improvement plan and specifications
once the foundation loading and layout has been finalized.
• GeoEngineers should be retained to review the project plans and specifications when complete
to confirm that our design recommendations have been implemented as intended.
■ During construction, GeoEngineers should observe the installation of the ground improvement,
evaluate the suitability of the foundation subgrades, observe and test structural backfill,
observe installation of subsurface drainage measures and provide a summary letter of our
construction observation services. The purposes of GeoEngineers construction phase services
are to confirm that the subsurface conditions are consistent with those observed in the
explorations and other reasons described in Appendix C, Report Limitations and Guidelines for
Use.

APPENDIX A
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
General
We explored subsurface soil and groundwater conditions at the site by advancing two cone
penetration test (CPT) probes (CPT -1 and GPT -2). The CPTs were completed to depths ranging from
26 feet to 39 feet below the existing ground surface using truck -mounted equipment owned and
operated by In situ Engineering. CPT -1 and CPT -2 were completed on September 29, 2011.
The locations of the explorations were estimated by measuring distances from site features
through taping/pacing in the field, and should be considered approximate. The locations of the
explorations are shown on the Site Plan (Figure 2).
Cane Penetration Tests
The CPT is a subsurface exploration technique in which a small -diameter steel tip with adjacent
sleeve is continuously advanced with hydraulically operated equipment. Measurements of tip and
sleeve resistance allow interpretation of the soil profile and the consistency of the strata
penetrated. The tip, sleeve resistance and pore water pressure is recorded on the CPT logs. The
logs of the CPT probes are presented in Figures A-1 and A-2. The CPT probes were advanced to
depths ranging from 26 feet to 39 feet below the existing ground surface. The CPT probes were
backfilled in general accordance with procedures outlined by the Washington State Department of
Ecology.

APPENDIX C
REPORT LIMITATIONS AND GUIDELINES FOR USE'
This appendix provides information to help you manage your risks with respect to the use of this report.
Geotechnical Services are Performed for Specific Purposes, Persons and Projects
This report has been prepared for use by King County Library System, Coughlin, Porter and Lundeen, and
members of the design team for use in the design of this project. This report may be made available to
prospective contractors for bidding or estimating purposes; but our report, conclusions and
interpretations should not be construed as a warranty of the subsurface conditions. This report is not
intended for use by others, and the information contained herein is not applicable to other sites.
GeoEngineers structures our services to meet the specific needs of our clients. For example, a
geotechnical or geologic study conducted for a civil engineer or architect may not fulfill the needs of a
construction contractor or even another civil engineer or architect that are involved in the same project.
Because each geotechnical or geologic study is unique, each geotechnical engineering or geologic report
is unique, prepared solely for the specific client and project site. No one except King County Library
Systems, Coughlin, Porter and Lundeen, and members of the design team should rely on this report
without first conferring with GeoEngineers. This report should not be applied for any purpose or project
except the one originally contemplated.
A Geotechnical Engineering or geologic Report is Based on A Unique Set of Project -Specific
Factors
This report has been prepared for the Renton Downtown Library that will be located at 508 S 3rd Street in
Renton, Washington. GeoEngineers considered a number of unique, project -specific factors when
establishing the scope of services for this project and report. Unless GeoEngineers specifically indicates
otherwise, do not rely on this report if it was:
• not prepared for you,
■ not prepared for your project,
■ not prepared for the specific site explored, or
rr completed before important project changes were made.
For example, changes that can affect the applicability of this report include those that affect:
■ the function of the proposed structure;
■ elevation, configuration, location, orientation or weight of the proposed structure;
■ composition of the design team; or
rr project ownership.

GEoENGINEERS November2,2011 I PageC-1
File Ye. 1784-018-00
RENTON TOWN LIBRARY Renton, Washington
If important changes are made after the date of this report, GeoEngineers should be given the opportunity
to review our interpretations and recommendations and provide written modifications or confirmation, as
appropriate.
Subsurface Conditions Can Change
This geotechnical or geologic report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was
performed. The findings and conclusions of this report may be affected by the passage of time, by
manmade events such as construction on or adjacent to the site, or by natural events such as floods,
earthquakes, slope instability or groundwater fluctuations. Always contact GeoEngineers before applying
a report to determine if it remains applicable.
Most Geotechnical and Geologic Findings are Professional Opinions
Our interpretations of subsurface conditions are based on the Cone Penetration Tests results completed
at the site. Site exploration identifies subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface tests
are conducted. GeoEngineers reviewed historic field and laboratory data and then applied our
professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual
subsurface conditions may differ, sometimes significantly, from those indicated in this report. Our report,
conclusions and interpretations should not be construed as a warranty of the subsurface conditions.
Geotechnical Engineering Report Recommendations are Not Final
Do not over -rely on the preliminary construction recommendations included in this report. These
recommendations are not final, because they were developed principally from GeoEngineers' professional
judgment and opinion. GeoEngineers' recommendations can be finalized only by observing actual
subsurface conditions revealed during construction. GeoEngineers cannot assume responsibility or
liability for this report's recommendations if we do not perform construction observation.
Sufficient monitoring, testing and consultation by GeoEngineers should be provided during construction to
confirm that the conditions encountered are consistent with those indicated by the explorations, to
provide recommendations for design changes should the conditions revealed during the work differ from
those anticipated, and to evaluate whether or not earthwork activities are completed in accordance with
our recommendations. Retaining GeoEngineers for construction observation for this project is the most
effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions.
A Geotechnical Engineering or Geologic Report Could Be Subject to Misinterpretation
Misinterpretation of this report by other design team members can result in costly problems. You could
lower that risk by having GeoEngineers confer with appropriate members of the design team after
submitting the report. Also retain GeoEngineers to review pertinent elements of the design team's plans
and specifications. Contractors can also misinterpret a geotechnical engineering or geologic report.
Reduce that risk by having GeoEngineers participate in pre-bid and preconstruction conferences, and by
providing construction observation.

Give Contractors a Complete Report and Guidance
Some owners and design professionals believe they can make contractors liable for unanticipated
subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent costly problems,
give contractors the complete geotechnical engineering or geologic report, but preface it with a clearly
written letter of transmittal. In that letter, advise contractors that the report was not prepared for
purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with
GeoEngineers and/or to conduct additional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or
prefer. A pre-bid conference can also be valuable. Be sure contractors have sufficient time to perform
additional study. Only then might an owner be in a position to give contractors the best information
available, while requiring them to at least share the financial responsibilities stemming from
unanticipated conditions. Further, a contingency for unanticipated conditions should be included in your
project budget and schedule.
Contractors Are Responsible For Site Safety on Their Own Construction Projects
Our geotechnical recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's procedures, methods,
schedule or management of the work site. The contractor is solely responsible for job site safety and for
managing construction operations to minimize risks to on-site personnel and to adjacent properties.
Read These Provisions Closely
Some clients, design professionals and contractors may not recognize that the geoscience practices
(geotechnical engineering or geology) are far less exact than other engineering and natural science
disciplines. This lack of understanding can create unrealistic expectations that could lead to
disappointments, claims and disputes. GeoEngineers includes these explanatory "limitations" provisions
in our reports to help reduce such risks. Please confer with GeoEngineers if you are unclear how these
"Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use" apply to your project or site.
Geotechnical, Geologic and Environmental Reports Should Not Be Interchanged
The equipment, techniques and personnel used to perform an environmental study differ significantly
from those used to perform a geotechnical or geologic study and vice versa. For that reason, a
geotechnical engineering or geologic report does not usually relate any environmental findings,
conclusions or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or
regulated contaminants. Similarly, environmental reports are not used to address geotechnical or
geologic concerns regarding a specific project.
Biological Pollutants
GeoEngineers' Scope of Work specifically excludes the investigation, detection, or assessment of the
presence of Biological Compounds which are Pollutants in or around any structure. Accordingly, this
report includes no interpretations, recommendations, findings, or conclusions for the purpose of
detecting, assessing, or abating Biological Pollutants. The term "Biological Pollutants" includes, but is not
limited to, molds, fungi, spores, bacteria, and viruses, and/or any of their byproducts.

SUBJECT: Renton Library
1. The preliminary fire flow requirement is 2,250 gpm based on a fully
fire sprinklered building. Three fire hydrants are required. One fire
hydrant is required within 150 feet of the proposed building and two
hydrants are required within 300 -feet. Existing hydrants can be
counted toward the requirement as long as they meet current code
including 5 -inch storz fittings. It appears adequate fire flow exists in
this area.
Proposed new hydrant shall be within 50 feet of the fire department
sprinkler connection, probably move it towards the intersection with
Logan Avenue. Fire sprinkler DDCVA assembly shall be located in an
outside vault unless the distance from the water main to the device is
less than 50 -feet, which it is not in your current proposal.
2. The fire mitigation impact fees are currently applicable at the rate
of $0.52 per square foot of building area. Credit would be granted
for the existing building to be removed.
3. Both an approved fire alarm and fire sprinkler system is required
throughout the building. Separate plans and permits are required
to be submitted to the Renton Fire Department for review and
permitting_ Fire alarm system shall be fully addressable and full
detection is required. A direct outside door is required to the fire
sprinkler riser control room.
4. An annual place of assembly permit is required for occupancies
exceeding 50 persons. An automated external defibrillator (AED)

NOTE: The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary is preliminary and non-
binding and may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official city decision -makers. Review
comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by
City staff or made by the applicant.
I have completed a preliminary review for the above -referenced proposal. The following comments are
based on the pre -application submittal made to the City of Renton by the applicant.
WATER
1. There is an existing 12 -inch water main in S. P Street. The available derated fire flow from the 12 -
inch main fronting the site in S. and Street exceeds 3,000 gpm. Pressure available is approximately 65
psi. The proposed project is outside an Aquifer Protection Zone.
2. The preliminary fire flow requirement per the Fire Marshal's office is 2,250 gpm. All new
construction must have fire hydrants capable of delivering a minimum of 1,000 gpm each. One primary
hydrant is required within 150 feet from the buildings and three additional hydrants will be required
within 30O feet of the buildings.
3. There are existing fire hydrants in the vicinity that may be counted towards the fire protection of
this project, but are subject to verification for being within the required distance and require fire
department approval. One new hydrant is required and it is shown on the plan; however, final design
will require the fire department connection to be within 50 feet of the new hydrant. Any existing
hydrants counted as fire protection will be required to be retrofitted with a quick disconnect Storz fitting
if not already in place.
4. Water system development (SDC) fees are based on the size of the domestic water meter, fire
service line, and landscape irrigation meter that will serve the site. Credit will be given for the existing f-
inch domestic meter that currently serves the existing building. Fees are payable prior to issuance of the
construction permit. See fee schedule attached.

immediately after the pipe has passed through the building floor slab. Installation of devices shall be in
the horizontal position only.
SANITARY SEWER
1. There is an 8 -inch sewer main located along the north property line.
2. Sewer system development fees are based on the size of the domestic water meter that will serve
the site. Credit will be given for the existing 1 -inch water meter serving the building. The sewer fee will
be based on the difference between the 1 -inch and 1.5 inch meters. This is payable prior to issuance of
the construction permit. See fee schedule attached.
3. if food preparation facilities (kitchen, cafe, restaurant) are proposed, a grease trap or grease
interceptor will be required. A separate plumbing permit is required.
SURFACE WATER

Minimum Lot Size, Width and Deoth — There are no minimum requirements for lot width or
depth within the CD zone at this location. The minimum requirement, of 25,000 square feet, for
lot size would not be applicable to the proposal unless the applicant is proposing to subdivide
the property.
Lot Coverage —There is no maximum building requirement in the CD zoning classification.
Set�ks—Setbacks are the distance between the building and the property line or any private
access easement. Setback requirements in the CD zone are as follows: 0 -foot minimum for the
front yard setback and a 15 foot maximum front yard setback. it appears the applicant
complies with the setback requirements of the zone. Encroachments into the right -of --way
would be allowed with a Right -of --Way Use Permit.
Gross floor Area — There is no minimum requirements for gross floor area within the CD zone.
Building Height —The maximum building height that would be allowed in the % zone is 50 feet.
Based on the conceptual elevations provided the proposed structure is compliant with the
height limits of the zone. Building elevations and detailed descriptions of elements and building
materials are required with your site plan review submittal.
Screening — Screening must be provided for all surface -mounted and roof top utility and
mechanical equipment. The site plan application will need to include elevations and details for
the proposed methods of screening.
Refuse and Recycling Areas — Refuse and recycling areas need to meet the requirements of RMC
4-4-090, "Refuse and Recyclables Standards" (enclosed). For office, educational, and
institutional developments a minimum of 2 square feet per every 1,000 square feet of building
gross floor area shall be provided for recyclable deposit areas and a minimum of 4 square feet
per 1,000 square feet of building gross floor area shall be provided for refuse deposit areas with
a total minimum area of 100 square feet..
Based on the proposal for a total of 15,000 square feet space, a minimum area of 100 square

The location of the proposed refuse and recyclable area appears to comply with the standards
outlined above. The sizing of the proposed refuse and recycle area could not be verified with
the materials submitted.
Landsca in — Except for critical areas, all portions of the development area not covered by
structures, required parking, access, circulation or service areas, must be landscaped with
native, drought -resistant vegetative cover. The development standards require that all pervious
areas within the property boundaries be landscaped. The minimum on-site landscape width
required along street frontages is 10 feet, except where reduced through the site plan
development review process. Rased on the proposal the applicant would be required to
request a modification through the site plan review process in order to reduce the 10 -foot
landscaping requirement along S 3'4 St. A modification would likely be supported as long as
the applicant is able to demonstrate that wherever possible the placement of street trees are
provided. Further landscaping requirements can be found below in the Design Guidelines.

The applicant is proposing to add 6 stalls to tyre exrsrrng parking #ar. rc appeun arrc rApp,r—r,t
would not meet the stall requirement for a cultural facility. Where practical difficulties exist in
meeting parking requirements, the applicant may request a modification from -these standards.
The applicant will be required at the time of formal land use application to provide detailed
parkinp, information i.e. stall and drive aisle dimensions and calculations of the subiect site.
Staff would be supportive of a parking modification in order to reduce the number of stalls
required for the new library.
It should be noted that the parking regulations specify standard stall dimensions. Surface
parking stalls must be a minimum of 9 feet x 20 feet, compact dimensions of 8%: feet x 16 feet,
and parallel stall dimensions of 9 feet x 23 feet; compact surface parking spaces shall not
account far more than 30 percent of the spaces in the surface parking lots.
ADA accessible stalls must be a minimum of 8 feet in width by 20 feet in length, with an adjacent
access aisle of 8 feet in width for van accessible spaces. The appropriate amount of ADA
accessible stalls based on the total number of spaces must be provided. Please refer to
landscape regulations (RMC 4-4-070 and RMC 4-4MOF.7) for further general and specific

Based on elevations provided it appears the applicant has not compiled with all of the
prescriptive standards of the Design District. However, on the basis of individual merle, the
proposal appears to meet the overall intent of the minimum standards and guidelines, and is a
creative design that achieves the purpose of the design regulations.
Environmental Review
The proposed project would be subject to Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SERA)
review due to the size of the proposed structure. Therefore, an environmental checklist is a
submittal requirement. An environmental determination will be made by the Renton
Environmental Review Committee. This determination is subject to appeal by either the project
proponent, by a citizen of the community, or another entity having standing for an appeal.
Permit Requirements
The proposal would require Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit review along with Site
Plan and Environmental (SEPA) Review. The purpose of the Site Plan process is the detailed
arrangement of project elements so as to be compatible with the physical characteristics of a
site and with the surrounding area. An additional purpose of Site Plan is to ensure quality
development consistent with City goals and policies. General review criteria includes the
following:

Current use of the site:
At the west end of the project site there is an existing commercial building. Formerly a BigS store, it is
now vacant. Towards the middle of the project site there is currently surface parking for the
commercial building. At the east end of the project site is a public park 'Gateway Park'.
Special site features:
There are no special site features such as wetlands, or steep slopes. The project site is generally flat.
No surface water body exists on or in the immediate vicinity of the site. The Cedar River flows near
the site, approximately'/ mile to the north east.
Soil type and drainage conditions:
The subsurface conditions at the site generally consist of interbedded layers of soft to medium
stiff silts and clays, and loose sand with variable amounts of silt, underlain by dense sands and
gravels with variable amounts of silt and occasional cobbles.
Proposed use of property:
The proposed project consists of building a new library building (15,083 GSF) with associated site
improvements including the renovation of Gateway Park.
SITE:
Street trees and planting areas are proposed consistent with the development standards in the City
of Renton Municipal Code.
Gateway park has been re -designed, in consultation with Renton Parks Department and with input
from the public, in order to create a plaza that will function as the entry plaza for the new library.
Security being one of the main concerns with the existing park, the new plaza design is open and
urban. It contains seating, trees and landscaping in planters, paving that ties in with adjacent paving,
sculptural furnishings, and opportunities for the community to hold events (such as a farmer's market
or a concert).

Project Narrative
Renton Library
BUILDING:
The existing commercial structure will be removed_ (A separate demolition permit will be submitted)
King County Library System (KCLS) is proposing the construction of a one-story, ±15,000 SF library at
510S.3 rd Street in downtown Renton.
The pedestrian entrance to the library would be located at the Northeast corner of the building with
the entrance facing East. Pedestrians would approach the entry via the redesigned plaza described
above. A book drop is proposed near the building entrance and is accessible by pedestrians. (Refer
Level 1 floor plan).
The proposed construction type is Type V.
TRANSPORTATION
The project site is bordered on the North by the City of Seattle Cedar River Pipeline easement with
(42) stalls of head -in street parking.
The site is bordered on the East by Logan Avenue S., with the 'Renton Piazza' on the other side of
Lagan. Logan Avenue S. is classified as a minor arterial.
The site is bordered on the South by S. 3rd Street, a principal arterial. It is a one-way street heading
East with two lanes of traffic and parallel parking on both sides.
To the West of the site is a zero lot -line commercial property.
In the vicinity of the project site are: Renton Pavilion Event Center, Renton Transit Center, and the
Park & Ride Garage.
Table 1. Existing Roadway Designations

Project Narrative
Renton Library
A new fire hydrant is required and is proposed near the corner of S. 3rd and Logan Ave_ S_
Public sidewalks adjacent to the project will be widened and re -paved. At the ROW to the north,
planting strips have been eliminated resulting in a walk approximately 10'-0" wide. At S. 3rd St., the
proposed building has been set back from the property line approximately 1'-6" resulting in a walk
approximately 12'-0" wide, aligned with the existing sidewalk along S. 3rd St. at Gateway Park and the
Piazza to the East.
The project proposes a total of 2,516 SF of landscaping, including (13) new trees.
Total estimated construction cost / estimated fair market value of proposed project:
$9 million
Fill/excavation:
Estimated earthwork quantities:
Cut: 1,320 cubic yards (Native Soils)
Fill: 1,030 cubic yards (Imported Structural Fill)
For the new library, excavation will occur to accommodate a depressed slab for the
proposed access floor plenum. In addition, geothermal bore holes will be drilled
underneath the proposed building, producing drilling spoils that will be hauled off site.
No substantial fill occurring on site. Material will be imported from WSDOT approved
pits as needed to fill void areas of removed footings from the existing building
demolition.
Number, type, and size of any trees to be removed:
All existing vegetation will be removed as follows:
(5) Cornus'Eddies' White Wonder', 3"-4" caliper
(3) Zelkova serrata, 4" caliper
(11) Zelkova serrata, 6" — 8" caliper
(1) 8" caliper deciduous tree
(8) multi -stem deciduous trees, 2" -4" caliper

Renton, WA 98055
Size: 15,083 SF (GROSS)
Zoning designation:
CD - Center Downtown
Comprehensive Plan designation:
UCD — Urban Center Downtown
A- Comprehensive Plan:
The City of Renton planning goals encourage renewed attention to the 'urban center' in order to
promote urban living and counteract urban sprawl. The idea is to concentrate people and services
and make them accessible by transit. Within that urban center, Renton has decided to concentrate on
the downtown core and has made considerable progress. This is evidenced by the redevelopment of
the piazza area, with the transit center and the adjacent parking garage. The proposed project is
located immediately west of this piazza. It consists of building a new library building (approx. 15,000
GSF) with associated site improvements including the renovation of Gateway Park.
The cultural function of a library will be another catalyst, enriching the experience of Renton's
downtown core.
B. Community Need:
The proposed location does not result in the over -concentration of libraries within the city:
The proposed project is the new location for the Renton Public Library which is currently housed in a
unique 1966 building that spans the Cedar River between Bronson Way South and Houser Way South.
The proposed library location is about a half mile southwest of the existing location. The proposed
library will continue to be the main public library for downtown Renton. The other King County
Library System branches that serve Renton residents are located in more residential areas: Highlands
Library and Skyway Library.
The proposed location is suited for the proposed use:
The proposed library location on South 3rd street is much more urban and central to the downtown
core than the current library location. The project site is immediately west of a vibrant public park.
The piazza draws people into the downtown core with the weekly farmers market and its adjacency
to the Pavilion Event Center. This area is extremely accessible with public transit, as the Renton
transit center is immediately north of the Pavilion Event Center. In addition, parking is plentiful, both
on -street and in the City Center Parking Garage located north of the transit center.
The addition of a cultural facility to this area will draw yet another subset of Renton residents to the
downtown core. It adds another destination for people to visit.
Conditional Use Permit Justification
Renton Library
C. Effect on Adjacent Properties:
The proposed use at the proposed location does not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on
adjacent property:
The proposed project will actually be beneficial to adjacent properties. The library will draw patrons
from all over the city. The increased pedestrian traffic will contribute to the social nature of the
proposed plaza and the existing piazza.
Compatibility:
Parking:
Traffic:
The proposed project is compatible with the scale and character of the neighborhood. Most of the
buildings near the project site are typical downtown one- or two-story structures, with storefront
glazing facing South 3`d street. Attention was paid by the design team to make the proposed one-
story library fit into the context of this downtown street. The south fagade, facing South3`d street has
a large amount of glazing, putting the library function on display towards this main thoroughfare of
Renton. The fagade is brought down in scale by the addition of canopies at regular intervals along its
length. Modulation and interest is provided by an arcade, built from cast -in-place concrete, which
frames each bay of glazing.
The full civic scale of this proposed cultural institution is more prominently visible from the proposed
plaza east of the building, and also from the Renton piazza east of that plaza.
The north portion of the proposed library houses the service functions and is more subdued in
expression. The cladding material will be terra cotta tiles varied with terra cotta screens. The layers of
building skin will reveal openings for windows, small niches with planting (and building egress), and
book drops.
The Utility Right of Way to the north of the project site currently contains (42) stalls. Those will be
maintained in the proposed project. In addition, (6) stalls will be added (two of which are AOA
accessible) as part of the proposed plaza improvements. Finally, by re -striping the parallel street
parking on S. 3`d St., an additional (2) parking stalls are proposed.
In addition, there is the City Center Parking Garage located a block away from the project site, with
(562) parking spots.
The vehicle traffic patterns around the project site will not be significantly affected by the proposed
project. The drive aisle width and direction of traffic flow at the utility right-of-way will not been
affected by the proposed project, Some of the parking will be designated short-term for library drop-
off, however this is not anticipated to affect traffic.
Pedestrian circulation has been taken into account in the redesign of Gateway Park. The proposal
aims to improve sight lines into the park by removing the existing dense tree canopy and the
landscaped mound in the center, thus improving safety. The proposed plaza has an urban character
with more paving than the existing park, as it will function as the entry plaza to the new library. New
crosswalk striping is proposed in two locations to aid pedestrian traffic between the plaza and the
mixed-use building to the north.
Noise, Glare:
Although noise impacts are not anticipated and the project is not required to implement noise
mitigation, the proposed library is planned to be constructed with sound insulation or other
means to achieve a day/night average interior noise level of 45 Ldn.
Conditional Use Permit Justification
(Renton Library
The library's general hours of operation are anticipated to be as follows:
Monday — Thursday 10am — 9pm
Friday 10am — 5pm
Saturday 10am —5pm
Sunday fpm —5pm
Additionally, a range of vehicles will make deliveries to the library.
The refuse/recycling enclosure has been located at the northwest corner of the project site, as
far from the bulk of pedestrian traffic as possible.
Noise impacts to neighboring uses are not anticipated as a result of the library and associated
activities.
The lighting for this project will be low glare and comfortable. The proposal includes the addition
of three new streetlights, per city standard. Four existing pedestrian -height streetlights will be
replaced with the city standard. Finally, as part of the project, the existing streetlight at the
southwest corner of the project site will be removed. Downlights with excellent shielding and
cutoff will be incorporated into canopies.
Lighting will occurfrom dawn to dusk. Some non-critical lights may be controlled to turn off after
hours or in the later evening hours to further reduce light impact.
Landscaping:
Gateway park has been re -designed, in consultation with Renton Parks Department and with input
from the public, in order to create a plaza that will function as the entry plaza for the new library.
Security being one of the main concerns with the existing park, the new plaza design is open and
urban. It contains seating, trees and landscaping in planters, paving that ties in with adjacent paving,
sculptural furnishings, and opportunities for the community to hold events (such as a farmer's market
or a concert).
Street trees and planting areas are proposed consistent with the development standards in the City
of Renton Municipal Code.
The project proposes a total of 2,515 SF of landscaping, including (13) new trees.

510 South 3rd Street
Renton, WA 98055
Size: 15,083 SF (GROSS)
Zoning designation:
CD - Center Downtown
Comprehensive Plan designation:
UCD — Urban Center Downtown
Proposed Construction Dates:
Construction is projected to start in November of 2012.
Hours & days of operation:
The hours of construction activity are anticipated to be limited to between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 P.M.
on weekdays.
Proposed hauling/transportation routes
To be determined.
Measures to be implemented to minimize dust, traffic and transportation impacts, erosion, mud, noise, and
other noxious characteristics:
During construction of the proposed project, some particulate emissions, such as fugitive dust,
may occur because of truck and heavy machinery traffic. Fugitive dust would be controlled by
water sprinkling, resulting in minimal and localized impacts. Construction equipment would
produce gaseous and particulate emissions- However, emissions would be temporary, lasting
only for the duration of construction
Because the site is generally flat, significant impacts from erosion are not expected with site
development or the proposed library use. Even so, proposed construction -related erosion control
measures include best management practices (BMPs) such as filter fabric fence, inlet protection,
sediment trap, construction entranceway, and temporary seeding to control sediment and erosion on
site. Standard erosion control practices will be followed during all phases of construction. These
methods would reduce or eliminate deposition of sediment from the construction site. No special
permanent erosion control measures are proposed in association with the library because no erosion
impacts are anticipated.
Special hours proposed for construction or hauling:
To be determined.
Preliminary traffic control plan:
To be determined.

Request,
Parking Modification
Renton Library
Per RMC 4 -4 -080 -F -10-e, a Cultural Facility is required to provide 4 stalls per 100 SF.
The proposed library project would require 603 stalls.
For several reasons, providing 603 parking stalls is impractical for the proposed library project.
Per RMC 4-9-250 a modification to a code requirement can be requested when there are practical
difficulties.
In addition, per RMC 4-4-080-F-11 the city requires bicycle parking based on 10% of the required
number of parking stalls. For the proposed library, the city requires 60 bicycle parking spots.
Practical difficulties:
The footprint of the proposed library covers almost all of its parcel (approx 90%) leaving no room for
parking on the site. A parking garage underneath the building would be prohibitively expensive
because of poor soil conditions and the water table which is approximately 12'-0" below grade.
The project also proposes the redesign of Gateway park, east of the library building. This is currently a
public park; the proposed renovation will improve safety and security while creating an entry plaza
for the new library. Including vehicle parking on this parcel would be a disservice to the public space.
The proposed redesign of the plaza includes parking for ten bicycles. Increasing the bicycle parking
further would make it disproportionate to the relatively small plaza; it would start to impede on the
openness of the public space.
Proposed off-site improvements include adding (6) parking stalls in the utility right of way, directly
north of the plaza property. This includes two ADA accessible stalls. In addition, by re -striping the
parallel parking along S. 3`d Street, (2) additional parking stalls are proposed.
Parking Modification
Renton Library
Parking opportunities in the vicinity:
The project proposes adding six parking stalls the utility right of way, directly north of the
plaza property.
42 There are (42) stalls currently located in the utility right of way north of the project site.
These will not be affected by the proposed project.
137 There are 137 street parking spots available within a one -block radius of the project site.
The project proposes re -striping the parallel parking along the south edge of the project site.
Between Logan Ave. 5. and the Roxy Theater to add (2) parking stalls
562 City of Renton has constructed the City Center Parking Garage located a block away from the
project site, with 562 parking spots.
749 total
Transit Access to the project site:
Impacts:
The Renton Transit Center is within a block of the project site. It consists of ten boarding locations
located between Logan Avenue South, Burnett Avenue South, South god Street, and South 3`d Street.
Approximately twenty-two METRO or Sound Transit routes are served providing transit connections
to locations such as the Sea -Tac, Rainier Beach, Seattle, Kent, Bellevue, Black Diamond, Fairwood,
Renton Highlands, Kennydale, Shoreline, and Burien,
There are no negative impacts anticipated to affect safety, function, appearance, the environment, or
maintainability of surrounding properties as a result of granting this parking modification -
Intent and purpose of governing land use designation of comprehensive plan is met:
The comprehensive plan aims to foster the further development of a rich and vibrant downtown
core. The proposed library project, a cultural facility will be a catalyst in that effort. Requiring this
project to provide 602 parking stalls on the proposed project site is not feasible and would make this
addition to the downtown core impossible. Given the amount of parking available in the immediate
vicinity for future library patrons, and the ease of access via public transit, it would be beneficial to
the goals of the comprehensive plan to grant a parking modification for this project.
Modification is in conformity with the intent and purposes of municipal code:
The Renton Municipal Code aims to create and foster a `quality community where people choose to
live, work and play'. A new library will be an attractive amenity for the people of Renton across the
entire demographic. Again, given the plentiful available parking in the vicinity of the proposed library,
and the transit options, it would be beneficial to grant a parking modification for this project.

Paving types are indicated on the Landscape Site plan L1_00. There are no proposed walkways
that cross parking areas in the current design.
Standard: Sidewalks and pathways along the facades of buildings shall be of sufficient width to
accommodate anticipated numbers of users. Specifically:
a. Sidewalks and pathways along the facades of mixed use and retail buildings one hundred
(100) or more feet in width (measured along the facade) shall provide sidewalks at least
twelve feet (12') in width. The pathway shall include an eight -foot (8') minimum unobstructed
walking surface.
b. Interior pathways shall be provided and shall vary in width to establish a hierarchy. The widths
shall be based on the intended number of users; to be no smaller than five feet (S') and no
greater than twelve feet (12').
A 12' sidewalk is being provided along 3`d Street.
Standard: Mid -block connections between buildings shall be provided.
The project does not include any mid -block connections.
Guidelines: Developments located at street intersections should provide pedestrian -oriented space at
the street corner to emphasize pedestrian activity (illustration below). Recreation and common open
space areas are integral aspects of quality development that encourage pedestrians and users. These
areas shall be provided in an amount that is adequate to be functional and usable; they shall also be
landscaped and located so that they are appealing to users and pedestrians.
Standard: All mixed use residential and attached housing developments of ten (10) or more dwelling
units shall provide common opens space and/or recreation areas.
NA
Standard: Amount of common space or recreation area to be provided: at minimum fifty (50) square
feet per unit.
The project includes a large public plaza that faces Logan and 3'd Street.
Standard: The location, layout, and proposed type of common space or recreation area shall be subject
to approval by the Administrator of the Department of Community and Economic Development or
designee.
The current design of the public plaza has been reviewed by Renton Parks Department_
Standard: Open space or recreation areas shall be located to provide sun and light exposure to the area
and located so that they are aggregated to provide usable area(s) for residents.
The design of the public plaza allows for ample sun exposure, and is visibly linked to the existing
public piazza located immediately to the east.
Standard: At least one of the following shall be provided in each open space and/or recreation area (the
Administrator of the Department of Community and Economic Development or designee may require
more than one of the following elements for developments having more than one hundred (100) units):
1) Courtyards, plazas, or multi-purpose open spaces;
2) Upper level common decks, patios, terraces, or roof gardens/pea-patches- Such spaces above the

PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST:
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21C RCW, requires all governmental
agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable
significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is
to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to
reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide
whether an EIS is required.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS:
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal.
Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of
your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly,
with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In
most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project
plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question
does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply". Complete answers
to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark
designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental
agencies can assist you.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a
period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help
describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this
checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably
related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact.
USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NONPROIECT PROPOSALS:
Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered
"does not apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT
ACTIONS (part D).
For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans and programs), the
references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be
read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

11. Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the
size of the project and site.
The subject property consists of two parcels / three lots, totaling 16,621 SF. It
currently has an unused commercial building, the former Big 5 store, with a
ground floor of 10,985 SF (gross) and a mezzanine of 2,459 SF (gross). The
remaining East end of the site is currently a parking lot. North of the subject
property is a utility easement, and east of the property is the Gateway Park,
both of which are also part of the proposed project.
This project proposes the demolition of the existing building. First any asbestos -
containing materials identified in the Hazardous Materials Survey will be
removed by Certified Asbestos Workers. Then the contractor will
dismantle/demolish and remove: the building itself, and the small trees and
shrubbery along the north property line. The existing asphalt parking lot at the
East end of the property will remain in place for site stabilization until the new
construction is ready to begin.
This project further proposes the construction of a new library for downtown
Renton. The gross area of the main level is: 15,083 SF.
In addition to the construction of the new library building, there will be site
improvements adjacent to the subject property. North of the property is a
Seattle Public Utilities Right -of -Way. This currently has street parking that is not
in compliance with city standards. The proposed improvements in this area will
bring it into compliance with the city's landscape standards. To the East of the
library property is Gateway Park. Proposed improvements here will improve
security of this area and also create an entry plaza space for the new library.
12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the
precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section,
township, and range if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the

2. AIR
No.
Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading
proposed. Indicate source of fill.
Estimated earthwork quantities:
Cut: 1,320 cubic yards (Native Soils)
Fill: 1,030 cubic yards (Imported Structural Fill)
For the new library, excavation will occur to accommodate a depressed
slab for the proposed access floor plenum. In addition, geothermal bore
holes will be drilled underneath the proposed building, producing drilling
spoils that will be hauled off site.
No substantial fill occurring on site. Material will be imported from
WSDOT approved pits as needed to fill void areas of removed footings
from the existing building demolition.
Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally
describe.
Erosion is not likely. The site is flat and any exposed soils will be covered
with an ail -weather construction surface prior to construction
About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after
project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)?
Within the land parcel in which the building construction is to occur,
100% of the site will be covered with the new building and impervious
surfaces. Within the park parcel to the east, it is assumed that
approximately 50% will be covered with impervious surfaces.
Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth,
if any:
Existing soils will be covered with an all-weather construction surface,
likely crushed rock or rip rap prior to building construction, which will
protect the soils from rain water and wind. Soil stock piles will be
covered with plastic as needed during construction. During dry summer
months, a water truck may be utilized to prevent wind-blown dust
What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust,
automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the
project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities
if known.
We do not anticipate any significant emissions outside of equipment
exhaust.
Are there any off-site sources of emission or odor that may affect your
proposal? If so, generally describe.
Not that we are aware of at this time.

provided.
11. LIGHT AND GLARE
What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it
mainly occur?
The lighting for this project will be low glare and comfortable. The
proposal includes the addition of three new streetlights, per city
standard. Four existing pedestrian -height streetlights will be replaced
with the city standard. Finally, as part of the project, the existing
streetlight at the southwest corner of the project site will be removed.
Downlights with excellent shielding and cutoff will be incorporated into
canopies.
Lighting will occur from dawn to dusk. Some non-critical lights may be
controlled to turn off after hours or in the later evening hours to further
reduce light impact.
b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with
views?
Light and glare are not anticipated to be a safety hazard or interfere with
views. Any outdoor luminaires that might be used would be well shielded
and directed downward to illuminate the intended surface and minimize
glare to motorists and adjacent buildings and uses. Additional lighting
may be used to illuminate the exterior wall area and/or the underside of
the roof of the proposed building. Those lighting fixtures would also be
well shielded to mitigate glare potential, and be designed to direct light
to the intended surface(s) and would not allow light to shine
uncontrolled. Therefore, the project would not be a safety hazard,
interfere with views, or pollute the night sky.
C. What existing off-site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal?
No offsite light sources are anticipated to affect this proposal.
d. Proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any:
Light levels will meet but not exceed Illuminating Engineering Society (IES
— produces lighting standards for the lighting industry) recommendations
to provide the minimum industry standard amount of light and minimize
over lighting the space. Any outdoor luminaires would be directed
downward to illuminate the intended surface and minimize glare.
Additional lighting may be used to illuminate the exterior wall area
and/or the underside of the roof of the proposed buildings. Those
lighting features would also be designed to direct light to the surface(s)
intended to be lighted and be well shielded to not would not allow light

street trees will filter or block glare. Controls could be used to turn off
non-critical lighting after-hours to further reduce light impact.
12. RECREATION
What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate
vicinity?
According to the City of Renton website, there are a number of
recreational activities in the greater Renton area. However, none of
those are immediately adjacent to the building site. There is an open

b. Is site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate
distance to the nearest transit stop?
The Renton Transit Center is within a block of the project site. It consists
of ten boarding locations located between Logan Avenue South, Burnett
Avenue South, South 2nd Street, and South 3rd Street. Approximately
twenty-two METRO or Sound Transit routes are served providing transit
connections to locations such as the Sea -Tac, Rainier Beach, Seattle,
Kent, Bellevue, Black Diamond, Fairwood, Renton Highlands, Kennydale,
Shoreline, and Burien.
How many parking spaces would the completed project have? How many would
the project eliminate?
The project will result in (50) parking stalls: (6) NEW spots in the utility
right-of-way, (2) NEW parallel spots on S. 3rd St., and (42) EXISTING spats
in the utility right-of-way. The project is eliminating the current parking
lot east of the Big 5 building which contains (11) stalls.
d. Will the proposal require any new roads or streets, or improvements to existing
roads or streets, not including driveways? If so, generally describe (indicate
whether public or private?
