8-7-8: VARIANCES AND APPEAL:
A. Jurisdiction: The Board of Public Works shall
hear and decide requests for variances from
the requirements of this Chapter.
B. Application: Parties seeking a variance from
this Chapter, or a duly authorized represen-
tative of the parties seeking the variance,
shall file an application for the variance,
which application shall set forth fully the
grounds therefor and the facts the applicant
deems material to justify the granting of such
a variance.
C. Public Notice And Hearing: The hearing for a
noise variance shall be a public hearing, the
date of which shall be not more than forty
five (45) days from the date of filing and
acceptance of the application for the vari-
ance. Notice of the time and place of public
hearing shall be given and at least one publi-
cation in the City's legal newspaper, which

days prior to the date of said public hearing.
In addition, three (3) written notices of such
public hearing shall be posted at least ten
(10) days prior to such hearing within, on or
about the location which will generate such
noise. Additionally, written notice of the
hearing shall be given to any resident or
property owner that will experience an
increase in noise, or potentially have an
increase in noise, such that this variance will
increase the quantity of noise received by
that property owner or resident. The burden
of providing this written notice shall be upon
the applicant. The Board of Public Works
shall not consider any variance for which
written notices have not been given, or grant
any variance that would cause an increase in
noise levels beyond that permitted in this
Chapter unless the affected property owner
or resident has been notified.

Dl) cause of special circumstances applicable to
the applicant's property or project, and that
the strict application of this Chapter will
deprive the subject property owner or appli-
cant of rights and privileges eajoyed by
others.
2. That the granting of the variance will not
be materially detrimental to the public health,
welfare or safety, or unduly iajurious to the
property or improvements in the vicinity of
the location for which this variance is sought.
3. That· the variance sought is the minimum
variance which will a=mplish the desired
purpose.
4. That the variance contains such conditions
deemed to be necessary to limit the impact of
the variance on the residence or property
owners impacted by the variance.
5. The importance of the services provided by
the facility creating the noise and the other
impacts · caused to the public safety, health
and welfare balanced against the harm to be
suffered by residents or property owners
receiving the increased noise permitted under
this variance.
6. The availability of practicable alternative
locations or , metllods for the proposed use
which will generate the noise.
7. The extent by which tlie prescribed noise
limitations will be exceeded by the variance
and the extent and duration of the variance.
E. Findings and Conclusions of Board of Public
Works: The Board of Public Works shall re-
duce its decision to written findings, conclu-
sions and a decision. The written findings,
conclusions and decision shall include a
section noting the right of appeal from the

RCW 70.107.030(5) of the Noise Control Act of 1974 (chap-
ter 183, Laws of 1974), the legislature directed the depart-
ment of ecology, in exercising rule-making Jlllthority to give
first priority to the adoplion of motor vehicle noise perfor-
mance standards. The purpose of this chapter is to carry out
that legislative directive through the adoption of noise
emission standards for new motor vehicles and noise
emission standards for the operalion of motor vehicles on
public highways.
(2) Local needs. The standards established in this
chapter provide several methods of evaluating motor vehicle
noise levels. Nothing in these rules is meant to require
enforcement agencies or local governments to adopt or use
every standard in this chapter to determine a violation.
Specific local needs shall dictate the standard(s) which may
be adopted or used.

HELICOPTERS IN KENNYDALE -
YOUR VOICE IS NEEDED !!
Charlie Conner, the developer, has been granted a Heliport
Temporary Use Permit for a Heliport to fly his private helicopter from
his house at 3001 Mountain View Ave. North in Kennydale. Six other
. home sites in Kennydal~ have, thus far, been identified by the City of
Renton for possible permits. Two neighbors have appealed the
granting of the permit.
Conner approached the City Council meeting with some 40
supporter$, including non-Kennydale property owners and those
whose property values will increase with the ability to have a heliport
pad. The City has cooperated with Conner on many issues butthis
crosses the line.
Most of our neighborhood was unaware that the permit was on the
table nor were we approached by Conner's one-sided petition ;,
gathering,._ A few neighbors found out about it, the day the City \
granted the permit, and voiced our protest but were cO(lsiderably
outnumbered by supporters gathered by Conner.
This sets a dangerous precedent. We have a state-of-the-art
helicopter facility at Renton Airport. It is.almost a given that Pa\Jl\ '
Allen will be l_i,mdin°' helicopters on the Seahawks property and what
is to prevent choppers from 'landing at Connors new development

PROJECT NUMBER / NAME: LUAOS-004, ECF / Helipad Zoning Code Amendment
Description: Helipad Zoning Code Amendment in R-8 zone where it abuts Lake Washington.
General Location: R-8 _Zone Where it Abuts Lake Washington
We object to any variance that would allow construction and use ofa helicopter landing/oarking site in Kennydale. Facilities exist in
in the Puget Sound area that already serve helicopters. This includes the City of Renton. Designating portions of a residential
community as an aeronautical appendage to the City of Renton Municipal Airport is objectionable and intolerable. The construction of
a helipad (and/or heliport) in a residential community is just wrong.
We object to the above referenced "Project Number'' based on the following reasons:
• The project description is misleading. Based .on FAA guidelines, the applicant is constructing a heliport (aeronautical
landing/takeoff area -includes airspace considerations) not just a helipad (parking site). Nevertheless, both are inconsistent with
the City ofRenton's Land Use Comprehensive Plan and zoning.
• Nowhere in FAA guidelines (Advisory Circular 150/5390-ZB, Heliport Design), or Washington State Department of
Transportation land use guidelines is it recommended to locate aeronautical activity (heliport or helipad) in a residential
neighborhood. ,.
• The optimum location for a helipad -(helicopter parking area) is on an airport. ~ ~ -~~
' •
•
•
•
The noise from helicopters will be unbearable. Interrupted sleep due to helicopter noise is unacceptable. Noise that distracts
children from school alld studies is unconscionable. Noise that interrupts the tranquility of indoor relaxation; and outdoor
gardening, bird watching, recreation or outdoor BBQ is objectionable. Putting a neighborhood in harms way is unthinkable.
The City of Rent.on Council has been realistic in protecting Mercer Island from noise generated by users of Renton Municipal
Airport. Our expectation is the City of Renton and Council protect its own citizens and constituency from aeronautical noise, 'IUd
ensure a safe residential environment.
This proposal designates new flight paths to an aeronautical landing area over our neighborhood. We oppose this action without
an environmental impact statement.
King Parker, Renton City Council said the city's ideal future focuses on "supporting the vitality of our neighborhoods ...... and
enhancing quality of life". (Source ~enton Reporter March 29, 2008.) Accordingly, the helipad (and/or heliport) proposed must
be denied on the basis it is not eodsisient with the City's vision.
In conclusion, approving construction of the proposed helipad (and/or heliport) is nothing less then profitable exploitation of our
neighborhood to benefit a few individuals at the expanse of the many citizens living in Kennydale and visitors that enjoy our trails,
parks and beaches. What is the City of Rehton's legal liability and moral responsibility in the event of a helicopter accident in our
neighborhood? Why would the City of Renton and Council ignore its own land use and airspace guidelines that protect people and
property on the ground from aeronautical activity? We believe it is irresponsible for the City of Renton to approve an aeronautical
facility -(helipad or heliport) in a residential area.
