Project Description The applicant is requesting Hearing Examiner Site Plan and Hearing Examiner
Conditional Use approval for the construction of a six -story (69 feet, 10 inches)
mixed use building. The subject property is located within the Center Downtown
(CD) zoning designation, Downtown Core Area, and Urban Design Overlay
District A. The proposed building would include one underground level of parking,
one story of commercial space and five stories of residential apartments. The
proposed building would include 94,768 square feet of residential space in 101
units, 9,344 square feet of commercial space, and 125 parking stalls within 36,977
square feet (11,901 square feet at grade and 25,076 square feet below grade).
Access to the site would be provided from the alley along the westerly property
line and from Main Avenue South.
Project Location 207 Main Avenue South
Exist. Bldg. Area gsf 1,850 sf Proposed New Bldg. Area: 26,242 sf
Site Area 0.68 acres (gross) Total Building Area gsf.- 134,094 sf
CRITERIA: DISTRICT A
A. SITE DESIGN AND BUILDING LOCATION
1. Site Design and Street Pattern: Minimum Standards. Maintain existing grid street pattern. The project is
located on a corner parcel with no plans to change the street grid. The street pattern will remain as
existing.
2. Building Location and Orientation: Buildings shall be oriented to the street with clear connections to the
sidewalk. The commercial space entry would be directly from the sidewalk at the corner of South 2"d
Street and Main Ave South. The residential entry would be directly from the sidewalk along Main Avenue
South. The building and its entries would be orientated to Main Avenue South and South 2n Street.
3. Building Entries_ A primary entrance of each building shall be located on the fagade facing the street. The
main pedestrian entries and one of the vehicular entries to the proposed mixed use development face
Main Avenue South and South 2nd Street. The applicant has enhanced the pedestrian entrances by the
use of canopies and unique, prominent architectural treatment_ The main pedestrian entries would also
be directly accessed from public sidewalks.
Guidelines focus on providing clear architectural entrance features with lobbies, canopies and ornamental
lighting. Also encouraged are pedestrian pathways, plazas and landscaping.
The applicant is proposing to provide well-defined main entrances to the structure. The commercial
space entrance is at the corner of the building (South 2nd Street and Main Avenue South) and is
chamfered off which emphasizes its prominent location. The entrance to the apartment units, located on
Main Avenue South, is marked by unique architectural treatment including a canopy. The proposal
complies with the minimum standards of this criterion_ No additional guidelines are suggested.

4. Transition to Surrounding Development — Minimum Standards: Careful siting and design treatment is
necessary to achieve a compatible transition where new buildings differ from surrounding development in
terms of building height, bulk and scale. The following design elements shall be considered to promote a
transition to surrounding uses:
• Setbacks at the side or rear of a building may be increased in order to reduce the bulk and scale of
larger building and so that sunlight reaches adjacent yards;
• Building proportions, including step backs on upper levels;
• Building articulation to divide a larger architectural element into smaller pieces,
• Rooflines, pitches and shapes.
The proposed development holds the street edge and would be an urban building_ The proposed building
is a six story structure with a maximum height of 69 feet, 10 inches to the top of the highest roof line.
The apparent bulk of the project is reduced through the use of varying materials on the building facades.
Brick will be used at the very base and also in places will go up to level 5 to accentuate the verticality of
the building.
The scale of the building will be broken up through the use of colors and materials. A combination of
horizontal and vertical siding with complimentary colors is proposed for the bay windows. The building
would be modulated with bay windows projecting out, sloping roofs and at places the upper floor is a story
and a half with tall windows and a shed roof.
Although the proposed building would be taller than surrounding buildings, the immediate area is zoned
CD and is likely to change as incremental redevelopment occurs. Comprehensive Plan policies
encourage taller buildings and more intensive use of properties in the downtown core_ The CD zoning
allows for a 95 -foot height limit.
The proposal complies with the minimum standards of this criterion. No additional guidelines are
suggested.
B. PARKING, ACCESS, CIRCULATION
1. Location of Parking — Minimum Standards: No parking shall be located between a building and front
property line or street side of a corner lot.
2. Design of Surface Parking — Minimum Standards: Parking lot lighting shall not spill onto adjacent of
abutting properties.
3. Structure/Garage Parking — No minimum standard_ Guidelines state that parking entries should not
dominate the streetscape. Parking garages should be architecturally compatible with the residential
portion of the building. The parking structure should be enclosed or screened through any combination of
walls, decorative grilles, or trellis work with landscaping. Garage parking should be secure. The street
side of parking garages in the CD zone should incorporate retail or service commercial facilities.
There is no surface parking proposed. All 125 parking stalls are contained within the building. There are
two entries to the parking garage. One would be from Main Avenue South and the other from the alley
along the westerly property boundary which is accessed from South 2nd Street.
The garage entries are located away from the main pedestrian entry at the center of the building. The
parking would be secured with doors and setback from the street. The at -grade parking level would be
screened from view by masonry building walls broken up with smooth stucco surfaces which emulate the
pattern which would be used at the commercial storefront. The longest blank wall on the west side of the
building is located behind a five feet landscape strip used to further hide the parking garage wall. A small
area of blank wall on the north side of the building is located behind a landscaped area as well.

REPORT OF APRIL 10, 2008 Page 3 of 8
4. Vehicular Access — No minimum standard. Guidelines state parking should be accessed from alleys or
side streets. Driveways should be visible from the right-of-way but not impede pedestrian circulation. The
impact of the parking garage entries have been minimized by placing the entrance for the commercial
area off the alley. The residential parking entrance is from Main Avenue South, visible from the right-of-
way, and will not impede pedestrian circulation.
The proposal complies with the minimum standards of this criterion.
C. PEDESTRIAN ENVIRONMENT
1. Streets, Driveways and Parking Lots. Parking for the proposed project is consolidated in two levels, one below
grade and the other at level 1. Parking access for the commercial space is from the alley along the westerly
property boundary; parking access for the apartment units is from Main Avenue South and will cross the
sidewalk.
2. Pedestrian Circulation: There are two pedestrian entries to the building. The pedestrian entry point for the
commercial space is directly from the sidewalk and is located at the prominent corner of the building at Main
Avenue South and South 2nd Street; the pedestrian entry to the apartment units is directly from the sidewalk
along Main Avenue South. Both pedestrian entrances are marked by distinct architectural form and elements
such as canopies and paving.
D. LANDSCAPING/RECREATION/COMMON SPACE
1. Landscaping: Street trees shall be located between the curb and building. The commercial street level
landscaping for this project uses street trees in four feet by six feet cut outs and planted containers to
highlight architectural features as well as to create visual interest. Planted pots are placed to denote
pedestrian entry points and vehicular entrance into the building parking garage.
2. Recreation Areas and Common Open Space: Attached housing developments of 10 or more dwelling
units shall provide a minimum area of common space or recreation area equal to 50 square feet per unit.
The common space area should be aggregated to provide usable area(s) for residents.
The project consists of 101 dwelling units which would require 5,050 square feet of common open space.
The proposed project provides a total of 6,310 square feet of common open space in a level 2 rooftop
courtyard garden.
Proposed landscaping for this area includes a variety of tree and shrub planter boxes placed to create
varied residential gathering spaces and to provide privacy for adjacent residential units. Plaza pavers
would create ground plane "carpets" to further define garden gathering spaces. A group barbecue,
movable site furniture, and a steel and fabric pavilion structure are also proposed to create flexible and
comfortable outdoor space for residents and guests.
The proposed common areas comply with the minimum standard and guidelines of this criterion.
E. BUILDING ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
1. Building Character and Massing - All building facades shall include modulation or articulation at intervals
of no more than 40 feet.
The proposed building utilizes a variety of modulation and articulation elements. Brick at the base and
at the subsequent upper levels will anchor the building to its urban setting. Above street level the building
is modulated such that there are no elevations longer than 40 feet on either of the two streets on which
the building fronts.
The proposal complies with the minimum standard and guidelines of this criterion.
Ground Level Details: At street level the building is urban in nature and holds the property line except at
the corner of South 2"d Street and Main Avenue South where the building has been chamfered back at
the corner.
3. Building Rooflines - Building rooflines should be varied by emphasizing dormers, chimneys, stepped
roofs, gables, prominent cornice or fascia, or be broken or articulated to add visual interest to the building.

e & MAIN MIXED USE APARTMENTS LUA-07-939, SA -H, Cil -H, ECF
REPORT OF APRIL 14, 2008 Page 4 of 5
A variation of roof heights and forms are used in the project to break down the scale of the building and
emphasize the corner location. Hip and shed roofs for the projecting bay window elements have been
tied in with the main pitched roof element.
The proposal complies with this criterion.
4. Building Materials - Exterior finishes should add visual interest and detail and be made of material that is
durable, high quality and easily maintained.
The base of the building will be brick finish, which is durable, visually appealing and easy to maintain.
Brick is also used to emphasize the building entries and verticality. The upper portion of the building uses
lighter appearing materials including bevel and panel siding. Composition roofing is proposed for the
sloping roof.
The proposed building materials meet this criterion. Staff is requesting a materials board as a condition
of site plan approval.

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 27, 2007 TG: 07204.00
To: Kayren Kittrick and Ron Mar, City of Renton
From: Jennifer Lowe and Carole Turley - The Transpo Group
Subject: 2 & Main Renton -- N&C Investment
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the City of Renton with a transportation
impact analysis for the proposed commercial/residential development at South Second
Street and Main Avenue South. This memo specifically addresses the anticipated trip
generation for the proposed development, as well as the existing, future without -project,
and with -project conditions at the proposed site access location. This scope reflects out
understanding of needed information as expressed by City staff,
Project Description
The proposed site is located on the southwest corner of South Second Street and Main
Avenue South, in Renton, Washington. The project would include 102 residential units
with under 10,040 square feet of retail space on the ground floor. The site is currently
occupied by a gravel parking lot and a small coffee shop.
The project would include a parking facility with a total of 134 spaces, including S
handicapped spaces. Access to parking would be provided via one driveway on Main
Avenue South and a second access to an alley connecting to South Second Street. Since
Main Avenue South and South Second Street are both one-way streets, the Main Avenue
access would be right-in/right-out only and the Second Street access would be left-
in/left-out.
Existing and Future Without -Project Conditions
The project is anticipated to be completed and fully occupied by 2009. Thus, 2009 was
chosen as the future horizon year for analysis. This horizon year analysis provides the
without -project conditions against which the impacts of the proposed project are
evaluated.
Roadway Network
The primary roadways within the site vicinity are South Second Street and Main Avenue
South. These are described below.
South Second Street is a four -lane, one-way road on the north side of the proposed
site. Pedestrians are served by a crosswalk on the east side of Main Avenue South.
Main Avenue South is two-lane, one-way road on the east side on the proposed site.
Parallel parking is available on both sides of the street and a crosswalk provides
The Transpo 6roup Inc. 11730118th Avenue N.E., Suite 600 Kirkland. WA 98034-7120 425.821.3665 Fax: 425.825.8434
pedestrian access on the south side of South Second Street. The posted speed limit is 25
mph.
Traffic Volumes
Existing and future without -project traffic volumes at the proposed access locations are
shown in Table 1. The existing traffic volumes at the driveways were derived from traffic
counts of the adjacent intersection of South Second Street/Main Avenue South which
were obtained from the City of Renton. To forecast future 2009 traffic volumes, a 3 -
percent annual growth rate was applied to the existing traffic volumes to account for
future traffic growth. These volumes are for total southbound traffic in the two
southbound lanes adjacent to the driveway on Main Avenue and total eastbound traffic
in the four eastbound lanes adjacent to the driveway on South Second Street. Both
roadways accommodate one-way (south- and eastbound) traffic only.

Transit Facilities A
A transit stop at the proposed siteZ, Metro Transit routes 247 and 280. Route 247
primarily serves commuters to and from Boeing and makes three trips during the AM
peak and three trips during the PM peak. Route 280 offers night service between
Bellevue, Renton, and Seattle. The Renton Transit Center is located about 1,000 feet
west of the proposed site. The transit center serves Metro Transit routes 101, 105, 106,
110, 140, 143, 148, 149, 153, 167, 169, 240, 342, 908, and 909, as well as Sound Transit
routes 560, 564, and 565.
Project Impacts
This section of the memo describes the traffic related impacts associated with the
proposed project. Project impacts are identified by comparing future with -project
conditions to the future without project conditions as described in the previous section,
Trip Generation
PM peak hour trip generation for the site was estimated using the Institute of
Transportation Engineers' (ITE's) Trip Generation, 7`h Edition. Trip generation rates for
the project are based on average rates for Residential Condominium/Townhouse (#230)
and Specialty Retail (#814) because they most closely represent the proposed

development. With the construction of the proposed project, trips currently generated by
the existing coffee shop at the site would be removed from the adjacent roadway;
however, this analysis does not include this reduction, thereby taking a conservative
approach.

As shown in Table 1, the project is anticipated to add approximately 1,042 daily trips to
the adjacent roadway network. Of these, 113 are expected to occur during the AM peak
hour and 80 during the PM peak hour.
Trip Distribution and Assignment
The proposed project would be served by one access driveway from Main Avenue and
one from Second Street. Based on the layout of the proposed parking facility, 70 percent
of project -generated trips are anticipated to enter and exit the site via the Main Avenue
access and 30 percent are anticipated to use the driveway on Second Street. Anticipated
AM and PM peak -hour project trips were assigned to the site driveway based on this
distribution

�.
Sight distance was field checked. The Main Avenue driveway will be locate�gS'feet to
the south of the intersection of Main Avenue South/South 2"d Street/Bronson Way
South and the Second Street access will be 90 feet to the east. The int clearly
visible from both site driveways though on-street parking just to th eft of the drivewa s
should be eliminated so that it does not block the driver's view of the ersec on
There is no northbound traffic at the Main Avenue driveway or westbound traffic at the
Second Street driveway because both of these streets are one-way.
Summary and (:conclusions
The following provides a brief summary of the anticipated traffic impacts of the
proposed commercial/ residential development at South Second Street and Main Avenue
South.
• The proposed project is a residential development that would include 102
residential units and 10,000 square feet of retail space.
• The project would generate a total of 1,042 trips per day, including 113 trips in

better.
• There are r,�I1tiG�pat Slt..6&k�A1�511�5 t}�n nrnnncPr� r�riveWaV locations
as long asst, -street Arkin immediately adjacent to the driveways is elirrunated-
• Project impacts to the roadway system are expected to be relatively low, and no
intersection mitigation would be necessary.

PART ONE: PROJECT DESCRIPTION ! BACKGROUND
The proposed land tisc action, construction of a six -story mixed use building, would take place at the southwest
corner of -South 2`J Strc<t and Nlain Avenue South in the Downtown Core Area of the City of Renton. The
completed project wo,,ild provide 101 multi -family dwelling units. The residential units would include a mix of
olw I)edl-00111 acid , ti,vo bedroom apartments. The project also vould include a net area of 9.344 square feet
of 17(211M)l con wuivial space. A total of 125 parking stalls including 114 standard, S compact, 2 barrier-ti-ee
accessible and l harrier -free accessible van parking stalls.
Existing development on the site consists of two buildings (one of which is occupied by Jct City Espresso) and
the remnants of a gasoline pump island_ Impervious materials cover approximately 98 percent of the property.
The project site is located within a Seismic Hazard Area. Soil liquefaction may potentially occur during an
earthquake cvcnt. During a geotechnical analysis it was found the site is underlain by approximately three feet of
mill 5uils and gl-owld%%"Iter was encountered at approximately 20 tcct. Pilings would be required for constructions
and slsorin, c)f�s(ljacent properties will be required dru-ine excavation for the below grade parking level.
The Cl) Zone permits a residential density of 100 units per acre and itp to 150 units per acre with an approved
ITearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit. The proposed project has a residential density of 148.5 units per acre
and, therefore, requires the approval of I-learing Examiner Conditional Use Permit, Because the project has a
residential density greater than 100 residential units and is greater than four stories or sixty feet in height, this
project requires a site plan review before the Hearing Examiner. The site requires a total of 110 parking stalls; a
parking modification is required for more than required parking.

U. 11"rivIronniental Impacts
The Proposal was circulated and revieitvd by various City Departrrlents and Divisions to determine whether
dW applicant 1761S ude(hrcatel)) identified crud addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in
conjunction 114111 the proposed development. Staff reviewers have icleritified that the proposal is likely to
have the.fallolving probable impacts:
1. Earth
Impacts: A Geotechnical Engineering Study, prepared by Geotech Consultants and dated July 18, 2007,
Was ;rlbrnitted with the project application. The site is situated within a Seismic Hazard Area with the
potential for soil liquefaction during the event of an earthquake.
The _,cotcchnical report indicates that the site is underlain by loose to medium -dense alluvial (water
deposited) sand and gravel. Loose soils are compressible under the anticipated building loads and would be
potentially liquefiable below the water table. The report recommends that the proposed building be
supported on deep Foundations embedded into very dense, native soils. Because of potentially caving near-
surTacc soils and tgrnundwater, the report states that augercast piers are the most suitable deep foundation
Option.
Additionally. large cuts would be necessary near the property lines to facilitate construction of the
underground parking garage. The upper soils are loose and prone to caving and cuts should be limited to an
inclination of 1:5:1 (horizontal:vertical). Based on the current plans, the report states that shoring will be
necessary along each side of the excavation. It is also recommended that the adjacent building to the south
be underpinned using small diameter, driven pipe piles; this will ensure that loads from the neighboring
buildins are not transmitted to the project's shoring or permanent below grade walls_
F- trtner. _hc {,eotechnical report discusses the effects of excavation on adjacent"adjoining structures.
]?ecommcndaticrns arc made for shoring, underpinning and other construction techniques to ensure that both
the project and its neighboring structures are protected from the effects of excavation. These techniques
include ineasures to reduce strong ground vibrations during demolition and construction, controlling water
seepage and waterproofing.

the State Department of Ecology Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements as
delineated in the 2005 Storm Water Manazcment Manual.
\esus: SL -PA Environmental .Regulations. 2005 Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual
2. Parks and Recreation
Impacts: The proposal does not provide on-site recreation areas for future residents of the apartments. It is
anticipated that that the proposed development would generate future demand on City parks and recreational
facilities and programs. Therefore, staff recommends a mitigation measure requiring that the applicant pay a
Pails \litigation Fee based on S354.50 for each new multi -family unit. The fee is estimated to be
535 50 (101 multi -family units x 5354,50 — S35,804.50) and is payable prior to issuance of building
permits.
Mitigation Nfeastrres: The applicant shall pay a Parks Mitigation Fee of $354.50 for each new multi -family
unit. This foe is estimated at 535,€304.50 and shall be payable prior to issuance of building permits.
Nexus: SEPA Environmental Regulations, Resolution 3082
3. Historic and Cultural Preservation
Impacts: The proposed project is located in an area with high probability for archaeological sites. While the
site ha; III -CV iously been disturbed by development. there remains a potential for subsurface archaeological
deposit".
Staff rcc:ornmends a mitigation measure requiring that work shall immediately cease and the Washington
Statc Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation shall be contacted should any archaeological
artifacts be discovered during earthwork activities.
Mitigation Measures- Work shall immediately cease and the Washington State De1xartment of 'A

4. Transportation
Impacts: it is anticipated that the proposed project will result in adverse impacts to the City's street system.
-1 hcrcfore, staff recommends that a mitigation measure requiring the payment of a Traffic Mitigat'on Fee be
iir.poscd. This fee would be 575.00 for each new daily trip attributed to the development. The fee is
estiin,rted to be 578,150.00 (1.042 daily trips x S75.00 — S78,150.00) which would be payable prior to the

Re: Design Revision Modifications — Renton 2.d & Main
Mixed Use Multifamily - LUA07-139, SA -H, CU -H, ECF
The Renton 2nd & Main Apartments design has been modified per our client's request. We
still have 101 units however the units have been slightly reduced and second we have
changed one of the larger studio units to a smaller unit to be more market responsive. The
second change relates to moving the Lower Level Parking Ramp to the north about 10' due
to soils concerns on our SE corner of the site. The net effect of our changes does not
modify the project concept, design character, colors, massing, roofline or detail.

Re: Site Plan Review Project Narrative for 2nd & Main project
(Amended 13 February 2008)
F, 1? 15 yam
IiIxi N ` 8" S! ,t PROJECT LOCATION / EXISTING CONDITIONS
, ''tt
b c 11;.,.t, WA The project site is bounded by an alley on the West, Pounder's Bar and Grill on the South,
South 2nd Street on the North and Main Ave on the East. The site is in downtown Renton
in the Center Do�zntown zone (CD). The site is approximately 23560 square feet.
"' 42'41''-''�''x Currently there is 1 story concrete building and a one-story glass building on the site along
with existing pump islands. All proposed structures are to be demolished.
No trees or vegetation on the site is being altered or removed.
The soils on the site have been analyzed and a separate geotechnical study accompanies this
Site Plan Review Submittal.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
A six story mixed-use project with associated structured parking is proposed for the site.
The building will contain a total of 101 residential units and approximately 9,000 square
feet of commercial space. Parking will be accommodated with two levels of parking, one at
a basement level and the other within the first .floor.
Parking at Street level will be accessed from the alley on the West side of the site and the
other entrance would be from Main Street. The density of the proposed project will be 150
dwelling units per acre. The maximum outright density allowed in the CD zone is 100
dwelling units per acre. Therefore administrative conditional approval Will be required to
develop the property to the proposed density.
PARKING
It is proposed that traffic to the two level parking garage will enter at two points. One level
of parking will be within the first story and the other will be at basement level. The
structured parking at street level is accessed through the alley from S 2n8 Street. Residential
parking in the CD zone is to be provided at 1 space per dwelling unit and commercial
parking is to be provided at 1 space per 1000 square feet. There are 101 units in the
2(R)2U2_corresp_c0 nsu1t_juiis_200616_sike Plan revim_PrujcctNarrative.doc
proposed project therefore 102 residential parking spaces are required. There is 9344 square
feet of commercial space therefore 9 spaces are required for that use.
We have a total of 125 spaces. 114 are residential and 11 parking spaces are for commercial
use. The additional parking proposed will not adversely affect the appearance of the project
because it is all contained within the building structure.
RESIDENTIAL
There will be five levels of units with 18 units on level R1, 21 units on levels R2 thru 4 and
20 units on level R5 for a total of 101 units above a 3 hour rated post tensioned concrete
slab. Units will vary in size from a 540sf Studio to a 2 bedroom, 2 -bathroom unit with
1138sf. The main residential lobby for the building will be located off Main Street.
In order to provide added modulation to the building and opportunities for a variety view
outlooks from the building we request a right of way use permit for bay window areas on
the building which cantilever over the right away no more than 24" and would be at least
13'-0" above the sidewalk where they occur.
COMMERCIAL
The most prominent portion of the street level is dedicated to 9,132 net square feet of
commercial space. There are two entrances at our plaza level. One entrance will be oriented
to the corner of the building at intersection South 2nd Street and Main Street with the other
entrance occurring rnid--way on Main Street. The entries will be further highlighted by their
distinct architectural design elements being proposed for both locations.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
City of Renton Development Services Division
1055 South Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055
Phone: 425-430-7200 Fax: 425-430-7231
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 NONPROJECT 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.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Theft from construction sites is one of the most commonly reported crimes in the City. To
protect materials and equipment it is recommended that all materials and tools be locked up
when not in use. The site should have security lighting, and any construction trailer or
storage area should be completely fenced -in with portable chain-link fencing. The fence will
provide both a physical and psychological barrier to any prospective criminal and will
demonstrate that the area is private property. Construction trailers should be kept locked
when not in use, and should be fitted with heavy-duty deadbolts with a minimum 1-112" throw
when bolted. Glass windows in construction trailers should be shatter -resistant. Toolboxes
and storage containers should be secured with heavy-duty padlocks and kept locked when
not in use.
"No Trespassing" signs should be posted on the property during the construction phase.
These signs allow officers, upon contact, to provide a verbal warning to trespassers that
should they be contacted on the property again, they could be cited and/or arrested.
COMPLETED COMPLEX
All exterior doors should be made of solid metal or metal over wood, with heavy-duty
deadbolt locks, latch guards or pry -resistant cylinders around the locks, and peepholes. If
glass doors are used, they should be fitted with the hardware described above and
additionally be fitted with a layer of security film. Security film can increase the strength of
the glass by up to 300%, greatly reducing the likelihood of breaking glass to gain entry.
Access to the back of the buildings should be limited, preferably with security fencing, as
these areas could be vulnerable to crime due to the lack of natural surveillance by business
customers or tenants.
It is recommended that the commercial areas be monitored with recorded security alarm
systems installed. It's not uncommon for businesses to experience theft and/or vandalism
during the hours of darkness. An auxiliary security service could be used to patrol the
property during those times. It is important to direct all foot traffic into the main entrance of
the building. Any alternative employee entrances should have coded access to prevent
trespassing. . Having an alley way on the west side of this complex creates an opportunity
Security Survey Page 1 of 2 07-139
for public access, which 0 can provide opportunities for crnals to enter this building
sight -unseen. I discourage public access (either for business or residential) via the alley -way.
If there are payphones in the business complex, it is recommended they be outgoing use
only. Public payphones tend to attract drug traffic and having only the ability to call out on
payphones severely hinders this type of activity.
All areas of this project need to have adequate lighting. This will assist in the deterrent of
theft from motor vehicle (one of the most common crimes in Renton) as well as provide safe
pedestrian travel for customers of the complex. This area of Renton is quite isolated
following commuter hours, but pedestrian traffic remains heavy due to the "nature" of some
businesses in the are (i.e., Stiffys).
The structure should have a building number clearly posted with numbers at least 6" in height
and of a color contrasting with the building. Unit numbers for the dwellings should also be
illuminated so that they are easily located. This will assist emergency personnel in locating
the correct location for response.
Landscaping should be installed with the objective of allowing visibility — not too dense and
not too high. Too much landscaping will make customers, employees, and tenants feel
isolated and will provide criminals with concealment to commit crimes such as burglary.
It is key for a business complex of this size to have appropriate lighting and signage. "No
Trespassing" signs should be posted in conspicuous locations throughout the property,
including entrances to the property and parking areas.
I highly recommend that the developer have a Renton Police Crime Prevention
Representative conduct a security survey of the premises once construction is complete.

Dear Elizabeth,
Thank you for sending Seattle Public Utilities a copy of your Notice of Application
and Determination of Non -Significance -Mitigated for this project.
This letter is to provide notice that Seattle Public Utilities operates a 66" inch water
transmission pipeline within S 2nd Street in the vicinity of this project. This pipeline is
one of our main water transmission lines which supplies water communities in
Seattle and in various communities in King County.
I have enclosed a copy of our map book sheet showing the approximate location of the fib" pipeline. If
there is excavation, construction or operation of heavy equipment performed in the area of our pipe,
"Consent" or "Permit" needs to be obtained from Seattle Public utilities. Also, Seattle Public Utilities
should be included in the pre -construction process, plan review and the actual construction if the
pipeline area is affected.
Information needed by SPU
Three copies of scalable Plan, Section and Profile drawings that show the
planned improvements in proximity to our pipe. These plans will be reviewed
for comment by SPU Operations staff & engineers.
The planned start and finish dates.

RE: 2nd & Main Apartments
Dear Elizabeth Higgins:
INDIAN
TRIBE I
�r

On behalf of the Preservation Committee, I have reviewed the information sent on
11/29/07 regarding the 2nd & Main Apartments and have the following comments. The 207 Main
Avenue S property is an area the Tribe has flagged as high potential for archaeological
discovery. This project is located in an area which has a high probability for archaeological sites.
Although the area is part of the built environment, there may be a potential for buried
archaeological deposits. Information regarding previous surveys and recorded archaeological
sites is available from the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, in Olympia. If
the project area has been previously disturbed, we would appreciate documentation that shows
that the disturbance extends to the depth of planned construction excavation. From past
experience we have learned that areas that show surface disturbance can still contain intact
subsurface deposits. If the project area has been previously surveyed, then the following requests
can be disregarded.
Due to the project's ground disturbing activities and the potential for archaeological
discovery, the Preservation Committee is requesting that a professional Archaeologist be retained
to conduct an overview study and provide recommendations as to whether additional fieldwork,
and/or monitoring is necessary.
The Preservation Program does not represent the Wildlife Program and the fisheries
Program which are separate departments under the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe. Please contact
these departments separately for their input on this project.
We appreciate the effort to coordinate with the Muckleshoot Tribe prior to site
preparation. The destructive nature of construction excavation can often destroy a site and cause
delays and unnecessary expense for the contractor. If you have any questions, please contact me
at 253-876-3272. Thank you for keeping the Tribe informed.

Subject: 2nd & Main Apartments
LUA07-139, SA -H, CU -H, ECF
Dear Elizabeth:
I am taking this opportunity to submit three comments on this project prior to the cut-off
date of December 12. The proposed apartment building will be located at the southern end of
Bronson Way. Bronson Way has been identified as a major point of entry to the city core
and because of its orientation, Bronson Way leads directly to the intersection of Main Ave S
and S 2nd. Suzanne Dale Estey, the city's economic development director, said "Bronson
Way is a very high profile entry point to the city." (per page 5 of the Dec 1 Renton
Reporter). She made the comment that the city is trying to improve the entry image along
Bronson. Suzanne also stated that when residential areas abut a commercial area, some "level
of incompatibility" can be expected at times. In this instance, the businesses in the area have
existed for many decades, while the introduction of multi -family residential construction
within the downtown core area usually results in sidewalks alongside long, uninteresting and
inaccessible building facades.
The proposed structure, as reviewed at a Renton City Hall public meeting a few months ago,
incorporates an image similar to a large office building recently built on the northern end of
Mercer Island. It was expressed at that time that the tremendous size of the perimeter
columns be scaled down and that overall features pick up on the theme of the design
surrounding the newer buildings such as the Piazza, Merrill Gardens, etc. This would scale
the project down to be more people friendly, especially as viewed from the sidewalks
surrounding the site.
After reviewing the City of Renton's Environmental Regulations, I have the following
comments as they pertain directly to this project:
The City of Renton does not have ordinances or incentives, as the City of Seattle does, to
require developers, in the downtown business core, to dedicate a percent of the street level
area to open or "people" spaces when a project exceeds a certain size. The proposed half -
block long, six story apartment building within the downtown business core would certainly
qualify for needing to meet these rules if they existed in our construction guidelines. It is
unfortunate that the proposed development does not incorporate an eastern poi ,,91 ;Utry,
such as an entry court, that would allow the building to be people friendly agvFt palrFqc
pleasant view upon entering the business core along Main Street,
1IJEj
BUILDING DIVISION
After reviewing a few of the published city's Environmental Regulations, the closest the city
comes to addressing these issues are as follows. We are hoping that your office can enforce
these elements while addressing the concerns of Suzanne: (Quoted from the City of Renton
Environmental Regulations)
Section 3, Architectural Design, para I, 1, a.: (beginning on page 70)
The design must "ensure that buildings ... appear to be at a human scale and all sides
are visually interesting ... with modulation or articulation at intervals not to exceed 40 feet."
Sub para d., I:
"Building facades should be modulated with architectural elements to reduce the
apparent size of new buildings, break up long blank walls, and add visual interest and enhance
the character of the neighborhood."
Para 2, sub para a., i. (a):
The design should ..."reduce the scale of long buildings." (This section also deals
with pedestrian scale in relation to large, long buildings.)
In addition to the above requirements, I am also questioning Section 4-4-080, page 4-20.2:
"Sufficient on-site parking ..." (No off-site parking is proposed).
We have observed at that the preliminary design review presented to the City Arts
Commission, that a percentage of the parking is tandem parking (two vehicles end to end in a
single, long parking space). This would not allow tenants easy access to their vehicles as
designed. It would appear that the proposed parking garage does not allow enough parking
for a six -story apartment building, nor provide adequate ADA parking, plus adequate parking
for the commercial space as well. The entire garage is above grade to allow access from the
alley behind the building, however the square footage required for a six -story apartment
building plus the proposed commercial space seems questionable. If this were a senior living
or assisted living facility, this issue would not have quite the impact that is now being
proposed. New residential and commercial buildings must meet certain minimum parking
standards without impacting the neighborhood. Therefore, we feel that this complex of
apartments (future condominiums) along with the required fire exits, loading zones, and
elevator / exit towers take up a great deal of the footprint of the building and appears to be
too great for the existing site. Widening the alley to accommodate adequate two-way traffic
will also compress the width of the usable street level parking within the building.
In conclusion, our comments focus on the appearance of this large structure on an axis with a
primary access to the downtown core; a lack adequate public space or modulation of the
facade; and upon the parking requirements that don't seem adequate for the size of the
project.
Sincerely,
,el 4r`'Z

Hi Elizabeth -- King County Metro Transit staff reviewed the 2nd & Main
Apartments project, no. LUA-07-139, and we have the following comments.
Metro Routes 167 and 247 serve a southbound bus stop on Main Ave S
adjacent to the north parcel of the subject property. This is the
closest stop to downtown Renton for these routes as they do not serve
the Renton Transit Center. It will be necessary to maintain a minimum
of 8' 6" x 11' concrete landing area, within the curb and sidewalk, for
an ADA-accessible stop at or near the current location at the front door
area, approved by Metro, and clear passage at the rear door areas. The
stop needs to maintain a minimum 40 ft. sight distance, free of street
trees and obstacles that would block the vision of bus drivers from
seeing customers waiting for the bus. Please send a copy of the
frontage plans to Patt Comstock, Facilities Planner, at (206) 684-1523.
Thank you.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 19, 2006
TO: Pre -Application File No. 06-115 l~
FROM: Jill K. Ding, Senior Planner x 7219
SUBJECT: 2"d & Main Mixed Use
General: We have completed a preliminary review of the pre -application for the above -
referenced development proposal. The following comments on development and
permitting issues are based on the pre -application submittals made to the City of
Renton by the applicant and the codes in effect on the date of review. The applicant is
cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or
concurrence by official decision -makers (e.g., Hearing Examiner, Zoning Administrator,
Planning/Building/Public Works Administrator, and City Council). 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. The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections
of the Renton Municipal Code. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for
a $50, plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall. Development
Regulations are also available for review at no charge in the office of the City Clerk on the 71h +`
floor, at Devel pment Services on the 6t�' floor and at the Renton Library.
j Project Pro al: The proposal is to construct a 5 -story building 155,006 square foot
building wit 41 vels of residential above 1 level of a combination of parking and retail and 1
., .ry4 level of underground parking. A total of 100 residential units are proposed within the building
'� ✓ (25 units per floor), in addition 29,000 square feet of retail and 112 parking spaces are
proposed. The project site is composed of 4 parcels totaling 29,503 square feet (0.68 acres)
in area and is located at the south west corner of the intersection of S 2nd Street and Main
Avenue S within. the Center Downtown (CD) zoning designation. The project site is also
located within District A of the Urban Center Design District.
Zoning: The subject site is designated Center Downtown (CD) on the City's Zoning Map.
The intent of the CD zone is to provide high-density residential and mixed-use commercial
centers serving a regional market as well as adjacent residences. In addition, the subject
site is located within the Downtown Core Area and the Urban Center Design Overlay District,
Development Standards: The proposal's compliance with the CD zone development
standards and the parking regulations is addressed below:
Design — The site is subject to the Urban Center Overlay District Regulations RMC 4-3-100..:
These regulations contain both standards and guidelines that affect architectural issues
including siting, design, modulation, common open space, access and parking. Several
standards are directly applicable to this project and should be considered thoroughly before a
detailed design is finalized.
Please review the Urban Design Regulations found under 4-3-100 for District A. An
Urban Design Overlay District Report is required to be submitted with the formal land
use application outlining how the project complies with the Urban Design Regulations.

Lot Coverage — For properties located within the Downtown Core Area the standards
regarding maximum lot coverage for buildings are not applicable.
Density — The permitted density range in the CD zone is a minimum of 25 dwelling units per
acre to a maximum of 100 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). Density may be increased up to
150 du/ac subject to approval of an Administrative Conditional Use Permit. Net density is
calculated after sensitive areas, access easements, and areas to be dedicated to public
right-of-way are deducted from the gross area of the site.
There are no sensitive areas, access easements, or public rights-of-way to be deducted from
the gross area of the property. The proposal for 100 units on the 29,503 square foot
(0.68 acre) site -arrives at a net density of 147 du/ac (100 units 10.68 acres = 147 du/ac),
which exceeds the maximum density permit in the CD zone, however may be
permitted subject to the approval of an Administrative Conditional Use Permit.
Setbacks / Landscaping — No minimum front yard setbacks are required in the Downtown
Core Area. In addition, no rear or side yard setbacks are required in the CD zone. Although
setback requirements do not apply in this instance, the Urban Center Design Overlay
Regulations are quite specific regarding siting and design treatments to reduce the bulk and
scale of the building. The same applies to landscape requirements. Although on-site
landscaping requirements do not apply to properties located within the Downtown Core Area,
the design regulations are fairly specific regarding screening and landscaping to reduce
visual impact.
Heigh — The CCS zone allows a maximum building height of 95 feet. The proposed structure
would be a 5 level building with a height of 53.25, which is below the maximum height
permitted. Building elevations and detailed descriptions of elements and building materials
are required with your site pian review submittal.
Screening — Screening must be provided for all surface -mounted and roof top utility and
mechanical equipment. In addition, garbage dumpsters and recyclable areas must be
screened pursuant to RMC section 4-4-090.C.7. Approval of the proposed locations of
dumpster areas 1by Rainier Waste Management is recommended prior to the submittal of the
formal land use application. The site plan application will need to include elevations and
details for the proposed methods of screening.
Refuse/Recyclable Areas — For multi -family developments a minimum of 1 %2 square feet per
dwelling unit is required for recyclable deposit areas and a minimum of 3 square feet per
dwelling unit is required for refuse deposit areas. For retail developments a minimum of 5
square feet per every 1,000 square feet of building gross floor area shall be provided for
recyclable deposit areas and a minimum of 10 square feet per 1,000 square feet of building
gross floor area ,shall be provided for refuse deposit areas.
Based on the proposal for 100 residential units and 8,000 square feet of retail area, the
project would be required to provide 190 square feet of recyclable deposit areas (1.5 square
feet x 100 units = 150 square feet, and 5 square feet x 8 = 40 square feet, 150 * 40 = 190
total square feet) and 380 square feet of refuse deposit areas (3 square feet x 100 units
300 units, and 1.0 square feet x 8 = 80 square feet, 300 + 80 = 380 total square feet).
Access/Parking -- It appears that the applicant proposes to gain access to the site from an
alley located to the rear of the site. Minimum parking ratios are provided in RMC 4-4-
080.F.10 based on the proposed land use. The following parking ratios apply to attached
residential developments located within the downtown core:
0 1 stall per dwelling unit.
The following parking ratios apply to retail developments within the downtown core;

r r��•
_y
Based on the proposal for 100 dwelling units and 8,000 square feet of retail space a total of
108 parking spaces are required (1 space per unit x 100 units = 100 spaces and 1 space per
1,000 square feet x 8 = 8 spaces, 100 spaces + 8 spaces = 108 total spaces),
The -applicant indicates that a total of 112 parking spaces would be provided, which exceeds
the number of parking spaces required.
In addition, the City's parking regulations provide specific requirements for accessible
parking spaces. Based on the proposal for 112 total spaces, 5 of those spaces are required
to be ADA accessible.
Structured parking spaces must comply with the following minimum dimensions for standards
and compact stalls:
Standards stalls must have a minimum length of 15 feet (16 feet for 45° or
greater) and a minimum width of 8 feet, 4 -inches; and,
Compact stalls must have a minimum length of 12 feet (13 feet for 450 or greater)
and a minimum width of 7 feet, 6 inches.
Compact parking spaces are not allowed to exceed 50% for structured parking areas of the
panting provided. A minimum aisle width of 24 feet between the parking spaces (RMC 4-4-
080.F.9) shall be provided.
Sensitive Areas: Based on the City's Critical Areas Maps, the site is located in a Seismic
Hazard Area. The seismic hazard is related to potential liquefaction of soils during an
earthquake event. A geotechnical analysis for the site is required. The analysis needs
to assess soil conditions and detail construction measures to assure building stability.
In addition to the geotechnical analysis, the applicant may be required to submit an
archeological resource survey of the site due to the potential of archeological
resources present on site. This report will not be required at the time of formal land
use application, however it may be required at a later time based on comments the
City receives from the State Office of Archeology and Historic Preservation. in order to
complete this report, the applicant will be required to hire a state approved archeologist to
conduct the site investigation and prepare a report to the State Office of Archeology and
Historic Presentation.
Environmental Review: The proposed project would be subject to Environmental (SEPA)
Review as the proposal would result in the construction of more than 4 dwelling units and is
not Categorically Exempt per WAG 197-11-800,
Permit Requirements: The proposal would require Hearing Examiner Site Plan approval, a
Conditional Use Permit, and Environmental (SEPA) Review. All permits would be reviewed
in an estimated timeframe of 10 to 12 weeks. The application fee for joint land use
applications is full price for the most expensive permit (Site Plan at $2,000) and half off any
subsequent permits: % of full fee for the Conditional Use Permit is $500 (112 of $1,000 full
fee), %2 of full fee for SEPA Review (Environmental Checklist) which is dependent on project
value: less than $100,000 is $200 (112 of $400 full fee) and project value over $100,000 is a
$500 fee (112 of $1,000 full fee).
In addition to the required land use permits, separate construction, building and sign permits
would be required. The review of these permits may occur concurrently with the review of
the land use permits, but cannot be issued prior to the completion of any appeal periods.
Pre06-115 (CQ 100 unit mixed-use development).doc

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 27, 2007
TG: 07204.00
To: Kayren Kittrick and Ron Mar, City of Renton
From: Jennifer Lowe and Carole Turley - The Transpo Group
Subje[t: 2"d & Main Renton - N&C Investment
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Cite of Renton with a transportation
impact analysis for the proposed commercial/residential development at South Second
Street and Main Avenue South. This memo specifically addresses the anticipated trip
generation for the proposed development, as well as the existing, future without -project,
and with -project conditions at the proposed site access location. This scope reflects our
understanding of needed information as expressed by City staff
The proposed site is located on the southwest corner of South Second Street and Main
Avenue South, in Renton, Washington. The project would include 102 residential units
with under 10,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor. The site is currently
occupied by a gravel parking lot and a small coffee shop.
The project would include a parking facility with a total of 134 spaces, including 3
handicapped spaces. Access to parking would be provided via one driveway on Main
Avenue South and a second access to an alley connecting to South Second Street. Since
Main Avenue South and South Second Street are both one-way streets, the Main Avenue
access would be right-in/right-out only and the Second Street access would be left-
in/left-out.
Ir I7 -1'1. 1 'Ff t7
The project is anticipated to be completed and fufly occupied by 2009. Thus, 2009 was
chosen as the future horizon year for analysis. This horizon year analysis provides the
without -project conditions against which the impacts of the proposed project are
evaluated.
Roadway Network
The primary roadways within the site viciri �, are South Second Street and Main Avenue
South. These are described below.
South Second Street is a four -lane, one-way road on the north side of the proposed
site. Pedestrians are served by a crosswalk on the east side of Main Avenue South.
Main Avenue South is two-lane, one-way road on the east side on the proposed site_
Parallel parking is available on both sides of the street and a crosswalk provides

pedestrian access on the south side of South Second Street. The posted speed limit is 25
mph.
Traffic Volumes
Existing and future without -project traffic volumes at the proposed access locations are
shown in Table 1. The existing traffic volumes at the driveways were derived from traffic
counts of the adjacent intersection of South Second Street/Main Avenue South which
were obtained from the City of Renton. To forecast future 2009 traffic volumes, a 3 -
percent annual growth rate was applied to the existing traffic volumes to account for
future traffic growth. These volumes are for total southbound traffic in the two
southbound lanes adjacent to the driveway on Main Avenue and total eastbound traffic
in the four eastbound lanes adjacent to the driveway, on South Second Street. Both
roadways accommodate one-way (south- and castbound) traffic only.

Transit Facilities
A transit stop at the proposed site serves Metro Transit routes 247 and 280. Route 247
primarily serves commuters to and from Boeing and makes three trips during the AM
pear and three trips during the PM peak. Route 280 offers tight service between
Bellevue, Renton, and Scattle. The Renton Transit Center is located about 1,000 feet
west of the proposed site. The transit center serves Metro Transit routes 101, 105, 106,
110, 140, 143, 148, 149, 153, 167, 169, 240, 342, 908, and 909, as well as Sound Transit
routes 560, 564, and 565.
This section of the memo describes the traffic related impacts associated with the
proposed project. Project impacts are identified by, comparing future with -project
conditions to the future without project conditions as described in the previous section.
Trip Generation
PM peak hour trip generation for the site was estimated using the Institute of
Transportation Engineers' (ITF.'s) Trip Generation, 7"' Edition, Trip generation rates for
rhe project are based on average rates for Residential Condominium/Townhouse (#230)
Ind Specialty Retail (#814) because they most closely represent the proposed
rhe Transpo Group Page 2
development. With the construction of the proposed project, trips currently generated bt
the existing coffee shop at the site would be removed from the adjacent roadway;
however, this analysis does not include this reduction, thereby taking; a conservative
approach.

As shown in Table 1, the project is anticipated to add approximately 1,042 daily trips to
the adjacent roadway network. Of these, 113 are expected to occur during; the ANI peak
hour and 80 during the PM peak hour.
Trip Distribution and Assignment
The proposed project would be served by one access driveway from Main Avenue and
one from Second Street. Based on the layout of the proposed parking facility, 70 percent
of project -generated trips are anticipated to enter and exit the site via the Main Avenue
access and 30 percent are anticipated to use the driveway on Second Street. Anticipated
AM and PM peak -hour project trips were assigned to the site driveway based on this
distribution
Traffic Operations
Future with -project intersection operations at the site access driveway on Main Avenue
South were calculated using the .jwbro 6-0 software package. The AM and PM peak
hour results of these calculations are shown in Table 3. LOS worksheets for future with -

As shown, the site driveways are anticipated to operate at LOS C or better during both
peak hours. Traffic on Main Street South will operate Nvith minimal delay and will not be
significantly affected by driveway traffic vehicles entering the driveway freely..
The Tre nspo Group Page 3
Sight Distance Analysis
Sight distance was field checked_ The Main Avenue driveway will be located 185 feet to
the south of the intersection of Main Avenue South/South 2°d Street/Bronson Wav
South and the Second Street access will be 90 feet to the east. The intersection is clearly
visible from both site driveways though on -street parking just to the left of the driveways
should be eliminated so that it does not block the driver's view of the intersection.
There is no northbound traffic at the Main Avenue driveway or westbound traffic at the
Second Street driveway because both of these streets are one-way.
The following provides a brief summary of the anticipated traffic impacts of the
proposed commercial/residential development at South Second Street and Main Avenue:
South.
• The proposed project is a residential development that would include 102
residential units and 10,000 square feet of retail space.
• The project would generate a total of 1,042 trips per day, including 113 trips in
the AM peak hour and 80 trips in the PM peak hour.
• Movements at the site access driveways are expected to operate at LOS C or
better_
• There are no anticipated sight distance issues at the proposed driveway locations
as long as on -street parking immediately adjacent to the driveways is eliminated.
• Project impacts to the roadway system are expected to he relatively low, and no
intersection mitigation would be necessan,.

Re: Site Plan Review Project Narrative for 2nd & Main project
PROJECT LOCATION / EXISTING CONDITIONS
The project site is bounded by an alley on the West, by the Pounder's Bar and Grill
on the South, by South 211� Street to the North and by Main Ave to the East. The
site is in downtown Renton in the Center Downtown zone (CD). The site is
approximately 23560 square feet. Currently there is 1 story concrete building and a
one story glass building on the site along with existing pump islands. All proposed
structures are to be demolished.
No trees or vegetation on the site is being altered or removed.
The soils on the site have been analyzed and a separate geotechnical study=
accompanies this Site Plan Review Submittal.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
A six story mixed-use project with associated structured parking is proposed for the
site. The building will contain a total of 10k residential units and approximately
1102 square feet of commercial space. Parking will be accommodated with two
levels of parking, one at a basement level and the other within the first floor.
Parking at Street level will be accessed from the alley on the West side of the site and
the other entrance would be from Main Street. The density of the proposed project
will be 150 dwelling units per acre, The maximum outright density allowed in the
CD zone is 100 dwelling units per acre. Therefore administrative conditional
approval will be required to develop the property to the proposed density.
PARKING
It is proposed that traffic to the two level parking garage will enter at two points.
One level of parking will be within the first story and the other will be at basement
level. The structured parking at street level is accessed through the alley from S 2-1
Street. Residential parking in the CD zone is to be provided at 1 space per dwelling
unit and commercial parking is to be provided at 1 space per 1000 square feet.

.. 0 •
There are. 102 units in the proposed project therefore 102 residential parking spaces
are. required. There is 9344 square feet of commercial space therefore 9 spaces are
required for that use.
We have a total of 134 spaces. 124 are residential and 10 parking spaces are for
commercial use. The additional parking proposed will not adversely affect the
appearance of the project because it is all contained within the building structure.
RESIDENTIAL
There will be five levels of units with 21 units on levels 2, 3, 4 and 5 and 17 units on
level 1. Total of 102 units above a 3 hour rated post tensioned slab. units will
vary in size from a 483sf Studio to a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit with 1057sf. The
main residential lobby for the building will be located off Main Street.
In order to provide added modulation to the building and opportunities for a variety=
view outlooks from the building we request a right of way use permit for bay
window areas on the building which cantilever over the right away no more than 24"
and would be at least 13'-0" above the sidewalk where they occur.
COMMERCIAL
The most prominent portion of the street level is dedicated to 9344 net square feet
of commercial space. The entrance will be oriented to the corner of die building at
intersection South 2nd Street and Main Street. The entry will further highlighted by its
distinct architectural style and elements being proposed for that corner.

Re: Conditional Use Permit Justification for 2nd & Main Project
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The site for this mixed-use project is in downtown Renton in the Center Downtown
zone (CD). The site is approximately 23,530sf. The location of this project is an
area that is earmarked for residential development of up to 100 dwelling units per
acre outright and can be developed up to a density of 150 dwelling units per acre
with administrative conditional approval. The proposed project would provide
housing at 150 dwelling units per acre which is well within the maximum density that
the City is willing to consider with administrative conditional approval.
The location of the project is ideal for allowing higher development because of its
proximity to the Renton Transit Center.
COMMUNITY NEED
This project will help add to the creation of a critical mass of residents in downtown
Renton which is important for the continued growth of the downtown core. A
densely populated core is critical to the development of new business downtown
which will in turn help to further the rejuvenation of the downtown core that began
with moving out of the car dealerships from downtown to make room for dense
residential development.
EFFECT ON ADJACENT PROPERTIES
The proposed development of a residential project at a density of 150 dwelling whits
per acre will complement the recent surrounding development in the downtown core
and other proposed projects in the area. The City would like to see the McClendon's
20061 G_site plan review_ConditionalUse.doc

0
Site two blocks to the East of the proposed project be developed as retail or mixed-
use. Higher density residential development in the area like the proposed project is
important to making redevelopment of the McClendon's site feasible.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
City of Renton Development Services Division
1055 South Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055
Phone: 425-430-7200 Fax: 425-430-7231
PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST:
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21 C 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 NONPROJECT 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.

Subject: 2nd and Main development - Dkak Project #30870
Daniel,
I have looked at your Conceptual Drainage plan, for the subject development; where you show
that there is less than 0.5 CFS increase in the 100 -year flow, and that no new pollutant
generating impervious areas will be added. I concur with the calculations and concept.
Based on your submittal the site will be exempt from the requirements of surface water
detention and water quality.
Please let me know if you have any questions, Mike

RE. T d & Main — 0tak Project No. 30970
Conceptual D.tainage plarz
Enclosed are the documents pertaining to our conceptual drainage plan. Our findings indicate that
no new flow control or water duality facilities should be needed for our proposed development
project.
No new flow control facilities should be necessary because the developed flow rate for the 100 year
storm event is 1.91 CFS, whereas the existing is 1.83 CFS, The difference is a 0.08 CFS increase,
which is less than the 0.5 CFS threshold requirement for flow control in redevelopment projects (see
attached runoff computations).
No new water quality facilities should be required since no new pollution generating impervious
surfaces are being proposed. All proposed parking areas will be located iii an underground parking
garage.
We propose to convey all onsite stormwater flows through a roof drain systern that will be
connected to existing catch basins located within Main Ave S_ The existing catch basins are located
at the north and south corners of the site (see attached preliminary drainage exhibit).

I appreciate your attention and prompt response to this project. Please call the at 425-739-4210 if

Urban, Center Design Overlay District Report for 2nd & Main Project
The following is a summary of how the proposed design for this project addresses
the Urban Center Design Overlay District Guidelines.
A. BUILDING SITING AND DESIGN
1. Pedestrian Building Entries:
This standard requires buildings to be orientated to the street with the primary
building entrance prominently located on the facade facing the street.
The main entry to the commercial space within the proposed muted -use building is at the most
prominent location, the corner of South 2' Street and Main. The entry to the condominium units is
on Main Street which is the more traveled of the two street.. The corner of the building is chamfered
off at the location of the entry to the commercial +pace. The entire form of the building at this
location reinforces the entry. The entry to the condominium units is marked with unique, prominent
architectural treatment to the elevation at that location.
2. Transition to Surrounding Development:
Careful siting and design treatment is necessary to achieve a compatible transition
where new buildings differ from surrounding development in terms of building
height, bulk and scale.
The proposed development holds the street edge and as such will be an urban building. To the East
of the site are one story shops , To the South is Ponders bar and Grill rrstaurant.
The proposed building is a fiat (6) story strxrcture, with a maximum height of 7Q' to the top of the
highest roof which is lower than the 95' honing height allowance for this Zone. In addition the
appar>?nt hulk of the project is reduced through the use of dierent materials on the building facades.
Brick will be used at the very base of the building and also at places will go up to level Sto
accentuate verticality of the building_ Combination of ' vertical and hon.Zontal siding with
complimenting colors it proposed for the bay windows The building is modulated with bay windowi
projecting out, sloping roofs and at places the upper floor is story and a half with tall windows with a
shed roof.
219616_sitc plan revim_Desi iGmdlines.drn
B. PARKING, ACCESS, CIRCULATION
1. Location and Design of Parking:
No parking shall be located between a building and the front property line or the
street side yard of a corner lot.
The proposed building if built nearly to the propery lines on all sides therefore the parking is
contained within the building structure.
2. Design of Surface Parking:
Ile have no open surface Marking on this project.
1. Structure/Garage Parking:
Parking entries should not subordinate pedestrian entries and should not dominate
the streetscape. Parking at grade shall be completely enclosed within the building or
wholly screened. Parking garages should be architecturally compatible with the
residential portion of the building. Garage parking should be secured. The street
side of parking in the CD lone should incorporate retail or service commercial,
facilities that can be used by the residents or units that have access from the street.
Thea are two parking garage entries to the project, one for each level. The garage entries are located
off the alley on the South side of the building thus making them subordinate from the two streets the
building fmnts on. The parking is secured with garage doors The commercial space and
condominium entries occupy the most prominent portions of the street front. Due to the relatively
small footprint of the project site it was not feasible to not locate a portion of the garage adjacent the
streets. The parking is completely screened fmm view by masonry building walls which arr broken
up with smooth stucco surfaces which emulate the pattern used at the commercial storefront. The
Ion
gest "blank wall" on the West side of the building is located behind a 5' landscape strip used to
further hide what is actually a parking garage wall. A small area of "blank wall" on the North
side of the building is located behind a landscape area within the ,South 2"" Street right of way.
2. Vehicular Access:
Parking garages should be accessed from side streets. Driveways should be located
to be visible from the right of way and not impede pedestrian circulation. Minimize
the number of driveways and curb -cuts.
The impact of the parking garage entries have been minimised by placing the entrance for the
commercial area off the alley.
The residential parking entrance it from Main ,street visible from the right of way and will not
impede pedestrian cirzulation.
200616_sitc place rcvicw_LDcsip i(.;kn bran clue
3. Pedestrian Circulation:
Developments should include an integrated pedestrian circulation system that
connects buildings, open space, and parking areas with the adjacent street sidewalk
system, Pedestrian pathways should be delineated separate from vehicle circulation.
The pedestrian entries to the building are at the most prominent locations at the intersection of 2" "
and Main and the entrance to the apartment on Main Strret... The proposed building will occupy
most of the site and therefore the building entries are &rrctyoff the adjacent sidewalks. The entrance
is highlighted by distinct arzhitectural form of the building and the elements (canopies, paving and
sculptures) used at those locations.
C. LANDSCAPING / RECREATION / COMMON SPACE
1. Common Open Space
Attached housing developments of 10 or more dwelling units shall provide a
minimum area of common open space or recreation area equal to 50 square feet per
unit.
This project consists of 10t dwelling units, which would require 5100 sf of open space. The
proposed project provides a total of 6310 sf of open pace. The open pace requirement wi!1 be
accommodated by pla.Za arra oriented on the west side. This space would be landscaped with seating.
D. LANDSCAPING
Rooftop Courtyard Garden.
The landscape for this project uti#.Zes a variety of tree and shrub planter boxes, placed to create
varied residentialgathering spaces, as well as to provide privacy to ad acent residential units Playa
pavers are also used to create ground plane carpets' to further define garden gathering spaces. A
group barbeque, movable site furniture, and a steel and fabric pavilion strmeturr air also used to
create flexible and comfortable outdoor space for residents and quests
Ground Level Commercial Planting:
The commercial street level landscape for this project utilizes Street Trees in 4'x6' cut outs, and
planted containers to highlight architectural featurrs and create visual interest. Planted Pots are
placed to denote pedestrian entry points as well vehicular entrance into the buildings parking
structure.
E. BUILDING ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
1. Building Character and Massing
All building facades shall include modulation or articulation at intervals of no more
than 40'.
?(IIIGIG_sitcplanr«icn�_LJesi i(�uidlar�rs.doc
The proposed building utili-Zes a variety of modulation and articulation element(. At street level the
building is appropriately urban in nature and holds the property line except at the entry to the
commercial .pace at the corner of South 2"' Street and Main Avenue South wberr the building has
been chamfered back to emphasize the corner. Brick at the base and brick at the subsequent upper
levels will anchor the building to its urban setting. Above street level the building is modulated such
That there are no elevations longer than 40' on either of 'the two streets that the building fronts on.
2. Building Rooflines
Building rooflines should be varied by emphasizing dormers, chimneys, stepped
roofs, gables, prominent cornice or fascia, or a broken or articulated roofline.
A variation of roof heights and forrrrs are used in the pmject to break down the scale of the building
and errphasi:Ze the corner location. Hp and shed roofs for the projecting bay window elements have
been harmomiousytied in wish the main pitched roof element.
3. Building Materials:
Building exterior finishes should be durable, of high quality, easily maintained and
add visual interest and detail.
The base of the building will be Brickfinish, which is durable, visually appealing and easy
maintenance. Brick is also used to emphasize the building entry and verticality. The ripper portion
of the building use "lighter" materials including bevel and panel riding. Finalyvombosition roofing's
proposed for the sloping mof.

GEOTECHNICAL !ENGINEERING STUDY
Proposed Mixed -Use Building
207- 219 Main Avenue South
Renton, Washington
This report presents the findings and recommendations of our geotechnical engineering study for
the site of the proposed mixed-use building to be located in Renton,
We were provided with site plans and a topographic map. TSA Architects developed these plans,
which are dated March 8, 2007. The topographic map shoves the buildings and structures on and
near the subject site, 2 -foot contour intervals have also been mapped, and the relationship between
the property and the intersecting streets, Main Avenue South and South 2nd Street are also shown.
Based on these plans, we understand that the building will consist of 5 stories of residential
apartments over a ground -level parking and retail area and one level of below ground parking_ The
project will cover the majority of the site and we anticipate cuts on the order of 10 to 12 feet.
If the scope of the project changes from what we have described above, we should be provided
with revised plans in order to determine if modifications to the recommendations and conclusions of
this report are warranted_
SITE cONDITIONS
SURFACE
The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site. The property is rectangular in
shape and consists of four lots at the southwest corner of Mair. Avenue South and South 2nd
Street in Denton. The northern half of the site, at one time a gas station, is still occupied by the
Pump canopy and the shop building. The gas tanks on the southern portion of the northern parcel
were removed in the past. Currently, the building is occupied by a coffee shop and the southern
half of the site is undeveloped and being used as a parking lot. The site is flat and the northern
half is paved while the southern half is gravel.
An 11 -foot -wide alley bounds the site to the west and South 2nd Street and Main Avenue South
bounds the site to the north and east. On the western side of the alley are three CMU office
buildings. The northernmost building is a tall one-story, is located approximately 11 feet from the
site, and has a finished floor elevation several feet below the alley grade The central building is
located approximately 25 feet from the site and is one story tall. The southern building is two
stories over a basement that has a finished floor approximately 4 to 5 feet below the alley grade. A
tall one-story CMU building sits on the common property line to the south. Its finished floor
elevation is near the existing site grade. Several large cracks are visible on the north -facing wail of
this building, and it appears that the eastern end of the building has settled severely relative to its
western end.
SUBSURFACE
The subsurface conditic-is were explored by drilling seven borings at the approximate locations
shown on the Site Exploration Plan, Plate 2. Our exp'oration program was based on the proposed

construction, anticipated subsurface conditions and those encountered during exploration, and the
scope of work outlined in our proposal.
The seven borings were drilled on June 15 and 16, 2007 using a truck -mounted, hollow -stem auger
drill, Samples were taken at 2.5- to 5 -foot intervals with a standard penetration sampler. This split -
spoon sampler, which has a 2 -inch outside diameter, is driven into the soil with a 140 -pound
hammer failing 30 inches. The number of blows required to advance the sampler a given distance
is an indication of the soil density or consistency. A geotechnical engineer from our staff observed
the drilling process, logged the test borings, and obtained representative samples of the soli
encountered. The Test Boring Logs are attached as Plates 3 through 10.
Soil Candi#ions
Jn all seven of our borings we observed fill soils overlying loose to medium -dense, alluvial
(water deposited) sand and gravels. The depth at which the native sand and gravels
became dense varied across the site but typically was from approximately 20 to 25 feet
below the existing grade except in boring B-5, near the northwest corner of the site, where
dense soil was not encountered until 32 feet. The maximum explored depth of our borings
was 39 feet. Typically the fill soil on the site was up to 3 feet thick, except in boring B-7,
drilled near the center of the northern halt of the property where the previous gas station
tanks were removed, here we encountered approximately 15 feet of fill. Large gravels and
cobbles were common to all of our borings.
No obstructions were revealed by our explorations. However, debris, buried utilities, and old
foundation and slab elements are commonly encountered on sites that have had previous
development.
Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater seepage was observed at a depth of 20 to 26 feet. The borings were left open
for only a short time period. Therefore, the seepage levels on the logs represent the
location of transient water seepage and may not indicate the static groundwater level.
Groundwater levels encountered during drilling can be deceptive, because seepage into the
boring can be blocked or slowed by the auger itself.
It should be noted that groundwater levels vary seasonally with rainfall and other factors.
We anticipate that groundwater could be found in more permeable soil layers and between
the near -surface weathered soil and the underlying denser soil.
The stratification lines on the logs represent the approximate boundaries between soil types at the
exploration locations, The actual transition between soil types may be gradual, and subsurface
conditions can vary between exploration locations. The Jogs provide specific subsurface
information only at the locations tested. If a transition in soil type occurred between samples in the
borings, the depth of the transition was interpreted. The relative densities and moisture
descriptions indicated on the boring logs are interpretive descriptions based on the conditions
observed during drilling.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
GENERAL
JN 07190
Page 3
THIS SECTION CONTAINS A SUMMARY OF OUR STUDY AND FINDINGS FOR THE PURPOSES OF A
GENERAL OVERVIEW ONLY, MORE SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS ARE
CONTAINED IN THE REMAINDER OF THIS REPORT. ANY PARTY RELYING ON THIS REPORT SHOULD
READ THE ENTIRE DOCUMENT.
The site is underlain by loose to medium -dense, alluvial (water deposited) sand and gravel. The
soil became dense at 20 to 25 feet below the existing grade except the northwest corner where
dense soil was encountered near 32 feet. The loose soils are compressible under the anticipated
building loads and would be potentially liquefiable below the water table. Due to the size of the
proposed structure, we recommend that the proposed building be supported on deep foundations
embedded into the dense to very dense, native soils. Due to the presence of potentially caving
near -surface soils and groundwater, it appears that augercast piers are the most suitable deep
foundation option.
We understand that the proposed building will have an underground garage for parking. This will
require large cuts to be made close to the property line. As mentioned above the upper soils are
loose and prone to caving; therefore, cuts in this type of sand and gravel should be limited to an
inclination of 1.5:1 (Horizontal :Vertica 1). if these excavation inclinations cannot be maintained
within the site boundaries, an easement could be sought frorrm the adjacent property owners. If
easements cannot be obtained or if they are not feasible then a temporary shoring system will have
to be designed. Based on the current plans, it appears that shoring will be necessary along each
side of the excavation,
The adjoining southern building was constructed on conventional, shallow foundations and has
already experienced severe post -construction settlement. Prior to beginning excavation the
northern Wali of this building will need to be underpinned to avoid settlement due to the adjacent
proposed excavation_ Based on our experience in the vicinity, we recommend that this building be
underpinned by using small -diameter, driven pipe -piles. The upper soils are prone to caving and
the presence of large cobbles and boulders makes the installation of soldier piles with lean -mix
cement very difficult and unpredictable. Therefore, the drilled shoring piles are not the
recommended underpinning system for the southern adjacent building. Soldier piles can, however,
be used as temporary shoring for the excavation. The minimum underpinning pile length will be
dependent on the driving refusal of the piles, but the piles should be embedded into the dense
sand and gravels below the lowest excavation elevation to ensure that no loads from the
neighboring building are transmitted to this project's shoring or permanent below -grade wails.

Slabs -on -grade floors may also experience noticeable differential settlement relative to the
foundations. If some settlement is acceptable a slab -on -grade could be used for the garage floors.
This slab should be reinforced with steel bars to limit the potential for excess cracking when
settlement occurs. A minimum reinforcement of No, 4 rebar placed on 18 -inch centers each way in
the slab is typically sufficient. Wherever possible the slab should be isolated from the pier -
supported walls and columns. An exception to this is where interior and exterior slabs and walk
ups lead to doorways. At these locations, the slab's reinforcement should be tied to the pier -
supported foundations. This lessens the chance that a sharp downset (i.e., trip hazard) will form at
the door threshold.
The adjacent structures are likely supported an conventional foundations that bear on compressible
soils. As a result, it is likely that they have undergone excessive settlement already. There is
always some risk associated with demolition and foundation construction near structures such as
this. It is imperative that unshored excavations do not extend below a 2:1 (Horizontal: Vertical)
imaginary bearing zone sloping downward from existing footings. Contractors working on the
demolition and construction of the building must be cautioned to avoid strong ground vibrations,
which could cause additional settlement in the neighboring foundations. During demolition, strong
pounding on the ground with the excavator, which is often used to break up debris and concrete,
should not occur. large eguipmerrt and vibratory compactors should not be used close to the
south property fine. Additionally, in order to protect yourselves from unsubstantiated damage
claims from the adjacent owners, 1) the existing condition of the foundation should be documented
before starting demolition, and 2) the footings should be monitored for vertical movement during
the demolition, excavation, and construction process. These are common recommendations for
projects located close to existing structures that may bear on loose soil and have already
experienced excessive settlement. We can provide additional recommendations for documentation
and monitoring of the adjacent structures, if desired.
Storm detentionfreteniion facilities and other utilities are often installed below, or near, structures.
The walls of storm vaults must be designed as either cantilever or restrained retaining walls, as
appropriate. Wall pressures for the expected soil conditions are presented in the permanent
foundation and retaining walls section of this report. it is important that the portion of the structure
above the permanent detained water level be backfilled with free -draining soil, as recommended for
retaining walls. Should drainage not be provided, the walls must be designed for hydrostatic forces
acting on the outside of the structure. The backfill for all underground structures must be
compacted in lifts according to the criteria in the pervious section of this report. Trenches for
underground structures and utilities should not cross a line extending downwards from an existing
footing at an inclination of (2.1) (Horizontal:Vertical), or a line extending downwards from a property
line at an inclination of (1.5:1) (H:V). We should be consulted if these excavation zones will be
exceeded for installation of storm facilities or other utilities,
If the structure includes an elevator, it may be necessary to provide special drainage or
waterproofing measures for the elevator pit. if no seepage into the elevator pit is acceptable, it will
be necessary to provide a footing drain and free -draining wail backfill, and the walls should be
waterproofed. If the footing drain will be too tow to connect to the storm drainage system, then it
will likely be necessary to install a pumped sump to discharge the collected water. Alternatively,
the elevator pit could be designed to be entirely waterproof; this would include designing the pit
structure to resist hydrostatic uplift pressures.
The erosion control measures needed during the site development will depend heavily on the
weather conditions that are encountered. While site clearing will expose a large area of bare soil,
the erosion potential on the site is relatively low due to the sandy soil conditions and the excavation

being lower than the surrounding area. Rocked construction access roads should be extended into
the site to reduce the amount of soil or mud carried off the property by trucks and equipment.
Wherever possible, these roads should follow the alignment of planned pavements, and trucks
should not be allowed to drive off of the rock -covered areas. Out slopes and soil stockpiles should
be covered with plastic during wet weather. Following rough grading, it may be necessary to mulch
or hydroseed bare areas that will not be immediately covered with landscaping or an impervious
surface.
The drainage and/or waterproofing recommendations presented in this report are intended only to
prevent active seepage from flowing through concrete walls or slabs. Even in the absence of active
seepage into and beneath structures, water vapor can migrate through walls, slabs, and floors from
the surrounding soil, and can even be transmitted from slabs and foundation walls due to the
concrete curing process. Water vapor also results from occupant uses, such as cooking and
bathing. Excessive water vapor trapped within structures can result in a variety of undesirable
conditions, including, but not limited to, moisture problems with flooring systems, excessively moist
air within occupied areas, and the growth of molds, fungi, and other biological organisms that may
be harmful to the health of the occupants. The designer or architect must consider the potential
vapor sources and likely occupant uses, and provide sufficient ventilation, either passive or
mechanical, to prevent a build up of excessive water vapor within the planned structure.
Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be allowed to review the final development plans to verify that the
recommendations presented in this report are adequately addressed in the design. Such a plan
review would be additional work beyond the current scope of work for this study, and it may include
revisions to our recommendations to accommodate site, development, and geotechnical
constraints that become more evident during the review process.
We recommend including this report, in its entirety, in the project contract documents. This report
should also be provided to any future property owners so they will be aware of our findings and
recommendations.
SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS
In accordance with Table 1613.5.2 of the 2006 International Building Code (IBC), the site soil
profile within 900 feet of the ground surface is best represented by Soil Profile Type D (Stiff Soil
Profile. The augercast foundation piers, recommended in this report, will be embedded into dense,
non -liquefiable soils.
A UGERCAST CONCRETE PIERS
Augercast piers are installed using continuous flight, hollow -stem auger equipment mounted on a
crane. Concrete grout must be pumped continuously through the auger as it is withdrawn. This
allows the piers to be installed where caving conditions or significant groundwater are anticipated.
We recommend that augercast piers be installed by an experienced contractor who is familiar with
the anticipated subsurface conditions.
An allowable compressive capacity of 35 tons can be attained by installing a 16 -inch -diameter,
augercast concrete pier at least 10 feet into dense, native sand and gravel. For transient loading,
such as wind or seismic loads, the allowable pier capacity may be increased by one-third. We can
provide design criteria for different pier diameters and embedment lengths, if greater capacities are

N & C lnvestments, LLC. .JN 07 i 90

required, The minimum center -to -center pier spacing should be three times the pier diameter.
Based on our boring information, we estimate that pier lengths of about 35 to 40 feet will be
required to achieve adequate penetration into the bearing soil.
We estimate that the total settlement of single piers installed as described above will be on the
order of one-half inch. Most of this settlement should occur during the construction phase as the
dead loads are applied. The remaining past -construction settlement would be realized as the live
loads are applied. We estimate that differential settlements over any portion of the structures
should be less than about one-quarter inch.
We recommend reinforcing each pier its entire length. This typically consists of a rebar cage
extending a portion of the pier's length, with a full-length center bar Each pier can be assumed to
have a point of fixity (point of maximum bending moment) al 12 feet below the top of the pier for
design of the reinforcing. The loose soil against the piers can be assumed to have a design
passive earth resistance of 200 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) acting on hvo times the pier diameter.
Passive earih pressures on the grade beams will also provide some lateral resistance. If structural
fill is placed against the outside of the grade beams, the design passive earth pressure from the fill
can be assumed to be equal to that pressure exerted by an equivalent fluid with a density of 200
pcf. This passive resistance is an ultimate value that does not include a safety factor.
PIPE PILES
This section applies to our recommendations for the underpinning of the adjacent building south of
the subject property. Three- or 4 -inch -diameter pipe piles driven with a 650- or 800- or 1,100 -
pound hydraulic jackhammer to the following final penetration rates may be assigned the following
compressive capacities.
Note: The refusal criteria indicated in the above table are valid only for pipe piles that are installed
using a hydraulic impact hammer carried on leads that allow the hammer to sit on the top of the pile
during driving. If the piles are installed by alternative methods, such as a vibratory hammer or a
hammer that is hard -mounted to the installation machine, numerous load tests to 200 percent of the
design capacity would be necessary to substantiate the allowable pile load. The appropriate number of
load tests would need to be determined at the time the contractor and installation method are chosen.
As a minimum, load tests on 20 percent of the piles is typical where alternative pile instailaiion methods
are used.
As a minimum, Schedule 40 pipe should be used. The site soils should not be highly corrosive.
Considering this, 0 is our opinion that standard "black" pipe can be used, and corrosion protection,
such as galvanizing, is not necessary for the pipe piles.
Based on the planned excavation depth and our borings, we recommend a minimum pile length of
20 feet to achieve embedment into dense, native soils. Our experience with installation of small -
diameter pipe piles indicates that it is likely that the piles will be longer than this minimum length.

Pile caps, grade beams, or brackets should be used to transmit loads to the plies. Isolated pile
caps should include a minimum of two piles to reduce the potential for eccentric loads being applied
to the piles. Subsequent sections of pipe can be connected with slip or threaded couplers, or they
can be welded together, If slip couplers are used, they should fit snugly into the pipe sections.
This may require that shims be used or that beads of welding flux be applied to the outside of the
coupler,
PERMANENT FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS
Retaining wails backfilled on only one side should be designed to resist the latera': earth pressures
imposed by the soil they retain. The following recommended parameters are for walls that restrain
level backfill:
PARAMETER VALUE
Active Earth Pressure 35 pcf
Passive Earth Pressure 304 pcf
Soil Unit Weight 130 pcf
Where: (i) pcf is pounds per cubic foot, and (II) active and
passive earth pressures are computed using the equivalent fluid
pressures.
For a restrained wall that cannot deflect at least 0.002 limes its
height, a uniform lateral pressure equal to 10 psf times the height
of the waif should be added to the above active equlvalent fluid
pressure.
The values given above are to be used to design permanent foundation and retaining walls only.
The passive pressure given is appropriate for the depth of level structural fill placed in front of a
retaining or foundation wall only. The value for passive resistance is an ultimate value and does
not include a safety factor. We recommend a safety factor of at least 1.5 for overturning and
sliding, when using the above values to design the walls. Restrained wall soil parameters should
be utilized for a distance of 1.5 times the wall height from corners or bends in the walls. This is
intended to reduce the amount of cracking that can occur where a wall is restrained by a corner.
The design values given above do not include the effects of any hydrostatic pressures behind the
walls and assume that no surcharges, such as those caused by slopes, vehicles, or adjacent
foundations will be exerted on the walls. If these conditions exist, those pressures should be added
to the above lateral soil pressures_ Where sloping backfill is desired behind the walls, we will need
to be given the wall dimensions and the slope of the backfill in order to provide the appropriate
design earth pressures. The surcharge due to traffic loads behind a wall can typically be
accounted for by adding a uniform pressure equal to 2 feet multiplied by the above active fluid
density.
Heavy construction equipment should not be Operated behind retaining and foundation walls within
a distance equa; to the height of a wall, unless the walls are designed for the additional lateral
pressures resulting from the equipment. The wall design criteria assume that the backfill will be
well -compacted in lifts no thicker than 12 inches The compaction of backfill near the walls should

be accomplished with hand -operated equipment to prevent the walls from being overloaded by the
higher soil tortes that occur during compaction.
Retaining Wall Backfill and Waterproofing
Backfill placed behind retaining or foundation walls should be coarse, free -draining
structural fill containing no organics. This backfill should contain no more than 5 percent silt
cr clay particles and have nc gravel greater than 4 inches in diameter. The percentage of
particles passing the No. 4 sieve should be between 25 and 70 percent. If the native sand
and gravel is used as backfill, a drainage composite similar to Miradrain 6000 should be
placed against the backfilled retaining walls. The drainage composites should be
hydraulically connected to the foundation drain system. Free -draining backfill or gravel
should be used for the entire width of the backfill where seepage is encountered, For
increased protection, drainage composites should be placed along cut slope faces, and the
walls should be backfilled entirely with free -draining soil. The later section entitled
Drainage Considerations should also be reviewed for recommendations related to
subsurface drainage behind foundation and retaining walls.
The purpose of these backfill requirements is to ensure that the design criteria for a
retaining wall are not exceeded because of a build-up of hydrostatic pressure behind the
wall. The top 12 to 18 inches of the backfill should consist of a compacted, relatively
impermeable soil or topsoil, or the surface should be paved. The ground surface must also
slope away from backfilled walls to reduce the potential for surface water to percolate into
the backfill, The section entitled General Earthwork and Structural Fill contains
recommendations regarding the placement and compaction of structural fill behind retaining
and foundation walls.
The above recommendations are not intended to waterproof below -grade walls, or to
prevent the formation of mold, mildew or fungi in interior spaces. Over time, the
performance of subsurface drainage systems can degrade, subsurface groundwater flow
patterns can change, and utilities can break or develop leaks. Therefore, waterproofing
should be provided where future seepage through the walls is not acceptable. This typically
includes limiting cold -joints and wall penetrations, and using bentonite panels or
membranes on the outside of the walls. There are a variety of different waterproofing
materials and systems, which should be installed by an experienced contractor familiar with
the anticipated construction and subsurface conditions. Applying a thin coat of asphalt
emulsion to the outside face of a wall is not considered waterproofing, and will only help to
reduce moisture generated from water vapor or capillary action from seeping through the
concrete. As with any project, adequate ventilation of basement and crawl space areas is
important to prevent a build up of water vapor that is commonly transmitted through
concrete walls from the surrounding soil, even when seepage is not present. This is
appropriate even when waterproofing is applied to the outside of foundation and retaining
walls. We recommend that you contact a specialty consultant if detailed recommendations
or specifications related to waterproofing design, or minimizing the potential for infestations
of mold and mildew are desired.
The General, Slabs -On -Grade, and Drainage Considerations sections should be
reviewed for additional recommendations related to the control of groundwater and excess
water vapor for the anticipated construction.

SLABS -GN -GRADE
If some potential for post construction settlement and cracking can be tolerated, the garage floors
can be constructed as slabs -on -grade atop a minimum of 12 inches of compacted structural fill over
native soils,,. To reduce the magnitude of the slab cracking we recommend reinforcing the slabs
with a minimum of No. 4 rebar piaced on 18 -inch centers each way. The subgrade soil must be in
a firm, non -yielding condition at the time of slab construction or underslab fill placement. Any soft
areas encountered should be excavated and replaced with additional select, imported structural fill.
!riving space slabs and slabs where no potential for settlement is acceptable should be structurally
supported by the piling
Even where the exposed soils appear dry, water vapor will tend to naturally migrate upward through
the soil to the new constructed space above it. All interior slabs -on -grade must be underlain by a
capillary break or drainage layer consisting of a minimum 4 -inch thickness of gravel or crushed
rock that has a fines content (percent passing the No. 200 sieve) of less than 3 percent and a sand
content (percent passing the No. 4 sieve) of no more than 10 percent. This capillary
breakldrainage layer is not necessary if an underslab drainage system is installed. As noted by the
American Concrete Institute (ACI) in the Guides for Concrete Floor and Slab Structures, proper
moisture protection is desirable immediately below any cn-grade slab that will be covered by tile,
wood, carpet, impermeable floor coverings, or any moisture -sensitive equipment or products. ACI
also notes that vapor retarders, such as 6 -mil plastic sheeting, are typically used. A vapor retarder
is defined as a material with a permeance of less than 0.3 US perms per square foot (psf) per hour,
as determined by ASTM E 96. It is possible that concrete admixtures may meet this specification,
although the manufacturers of the admixtures should be consulted. Where plastic sheeting is used
under slabs, joints should overlap by at least 6 inches and be sealed with adhesive tape_ The
sheeting should extend to the foundation walls for maximum vapor protection. If no potential for
vapor passage through the slab is desired, a vapor barrier should be used. A vapor barrier, as
defined by ACI, is a product with a water transmission rate of 0,00 perms per square foot per hour
when tested in accordance with ASTM E 96. Reinforced membranes having sealed overlaps can
meet this requirernent,
In the recent past, ACI (Section 4.1.5) recommended that a minimum of 4 inches of well -graded
compactable granular material, such as a 5/8 inch minus crushed rock pavement base, should be
placed over the vapor retarder or barrier for protection of the retarder or barrier and as a "blotter" to
aid in the curing of the concrete slab, Sand was not reccmmended by ACI for this purpose.
However, the use of material over the vapor retarder is controversial as noted in current ACI
literature because of the potential that the protection/blotter material can become wet between the
time of its placement and the installation of the slab. If the material is wet prior to slab placement,
which is always possible in the Puget Sound area, it could cause vapor transmission to occur up
t7rough the slab in the future, essentially destroying the purpose of the vapor barrier/ retarder.
Therefore, if there is a potential that the protection/blotter material will become wet before the slab
is installed, ACI now recommends that no protection/blotter material be used. However, ACI then
recommends that, because there is a potential for slab cure due to the loss of the blotter material,
joint spacing in the slab be reduced, a low shrinkage concrete mixture be used, and "other
measures" (steel reinforcing, etc.) be used. ASTM E-1643-98 "Standard Practice for Installation of
Water Vapor Retarders Used in Contact with Earth or Granular Fill Under Concrete Slabs"
generally agrees with the recent ACI literature.
We recommend that the contractor, the project materials engineer, and the Qwner discuss these
issues and review recent ACI literature and ASTM E-1643 for installation guidelines and guidance

on the use of the protection/blotter material. Our opinion is that with impervious surfaces that all
means should be undertaken to reduce water vapor transmission.
The General, Permanent Foundation and Retaining Walls, and Drainage Considerations
sections should be reviewed for additional recommendations related to the control of groundwater
and excess water vapor for the anticipated construction.
Isolation joints should be provided where the slabs intersect columns and walls. Control and
expansion joints should also be used to control cracking from expansion and contraction. Saw cuts
or preformed strip joints used to control shrinkage cracking should extend through the upper one-
fourth of the slab. The spacing of control or expansion joints depends on the slab shape and the
amount of steel placed in it, Reducing the water -to -cement ratio of the concrete and curing the
concrete, by preventing the evaporation of free water until cement hydration occurs, will also
reduce shrinkage cracking.
EXCAVATIONS AND SLOPES
Excavation slopes should not exceed the limits specified in local, state, and national government
safety regulations. Temporary cuts to a depth of about 4 feet may be attempted vertically in
unsaturated soil, if there are no indications of slope instability. However, vertical cuts should not be
made near property boundaries, or existing utilities and structures. Based upon Washington
Administrative Code (WAC) 296, Part N, the soil at the subject site wouid generally be classified as
Type C. Therefore, temporary cut slopes greater than 4 feet in height should not be excavated at
an inclination steeper than 1.5:1 (Hodzontal:Vertical), extending continuously between the top and
the bottom of a cut. In addition, no unshored cuts should be made within a 2.1 (H:V) inclination of
any existing footings.
The above -recommended temporary slope inclination is based on the conditions exposed in our
explorations, and on what has been successful at other sites with similar soil conditions. It is
possible that variations in soil and groundwater conditions will require modifications to the
inclination at which temporary slopes can stand. Temporary cuts are those that will remain
unsupported for a relatively short duration to allow for the construction of foundations, retaining
walls, or utilities. Temporary cut slopes should be protected with plastic sheeting during wet
weather, It is also important that surface water be directed away from temporary slope cuts. The
cut slopes should also be backfilled or retained as soon as possible to reduce the potential for
instability. Please note that loose soil can cave suddenly and without warning. Excavation,
foundation, and utility contractors should be made especially aware of this potential danger. These
recommendations may need to be modified if the area dear the potential cuts has been disturbed in
the past by utility installation, or if settlement -sensitive utilities are located nearby.
All permanent cuts into native soil should be inclined no steeper than 2:1 (H:V), To reduce the
potential for shallow sloughing, fill must be compacted to the face of these slopes. This can be
accomplished by overbuilding the compacted fill and then trimming it back to its final inclination.
Adequate compaction of the slope face is important -or long-term stability and is necessary to
prevent excessive settlement of patios, slabs, foundations, or other improvements that may be
placed near the edge of the slope.
Water should not be allowed to flow uncontrolled over the top of any temporary or permanent
slope. All permanently exposed slopes should be seeded with an appropriate species of vegetation
to reduce erosion and improve the stability of the surfid2l layer of soil.

TEMPORARY SHORING
A variety of shoring systems are feasible for use at this site, This section presents design
considerations for cantilevered or tied -back soldier -pile walls. Since the most suitable choice is
primarily dependent on a number of factors under the contractor's control, we suggest that the
contractor work closely with the structurar engineer during the shoring design.
As discussed above, the sensitivity of adjacent buildings and utilities must be considered in the
design to reduce the risk of causing settlement of these adjacent elements. Regardless of the
system used, all shoring systems will deflect in toward the excavation. Therefore, there is always a
risk of noticeable settlement occurring or; the ground behind the shoring wall. These risks are
reduced, but not entirely eliminated, by using more rigid shoring systems, such as soldier piles.
The shoring design should be submitted to Geotech Consultants, Inc. for review prior to beginning
site excavation. We are available and would be pleased to assist in this design effort.
CANTILEVERED AND TIED -BACK SOLDIER PILE'S
Soldier -Pile Installation
Soldier -pile walls would be constructed after making planned cut slopes, and prior to
commencing the mass excavation, by setting steel H -beams in a drilled hole and
grouting the space between the beam and the soi; with concrete for the entire height
of the drilled hole. We anticipate that the holes would require casing, the contractor
should be prepared to case the holes or use the slurry method if caving soil is
encountered, Excessive ground toss in the drilled holes must be avoided to reduce
the potential for settlement on adjacent. properties. If water is present in a hole at
the time the soldier pile is poured, concrete must be trernied to the bottom of the
hole_
As excavation proceeds downward, the space between the piles should be lagged
with timber, and any voids behind the timbers should be filled with pea gravel, or a
slurry comprised of sand and fly ash. Treated lagging is usually required for
permanent walls, while untreated lagging can often be utilized for temporary shoring
wails. Temporary vertical cuts will be necessary between the soldier piles for the
lagging placement. The prompt and careful installation of lagging is important,
particularly in loose or caving soil, to maintain the integrity of the excavation and
provide safer working conditions. Additionally, care roust be taken by the excavator
to remove no more soil between the soldier piles than is necessary to install the
lagging. Caving or overexcavatior during lagging placement could result in loss of
ground on neighboring properties, Timber lagging should be designed for an
applied lateral pressure of 30 percent of the design wall pressure, if the pile spacing
is less than three pile diameters. For larger pile spacings, the lagging should be
designed for 50 percent of the design load.
if permanent building walls are to be constructed against the shoring walls, drainage
should be provided by attaching a geotextile drainage composite with a solid plastic
backing, similar to Miradrain 8000, to the entire face of the lagging; prior to placing
waterproofing and pouring the foundation wall. These drainage composites should

be hydraulically connected to the foundation drainage system through weep holes
placed in the foundation wa€ls.
Soldier -Pile Wall Design
Temporary soldier -pile shoring that is cantilevered or restrained by one row of
tiebacks, and that has a level backslope, should be designed for an active soil
pressure equal to that pressure exerted by an equivalent fluid with a unit weight of
35 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). For the shoring along the southern property line
adiacent to the existing building, we recommend that an at rest soil pressure of 55
pcf be utilized in the shoring design to reduce the lateral deflections in this wall.
Traffic surcharges can typically be accounted for by increasing the effective height of
the shoring wall by 2 feet. Existing adjacent buildings will exert surcharges on the
proposed shoring wall, unless the buildings are underpinned. Slopes above the
shoring walls will exert additional surcharge pressures. These surcharge pressures
will vary, depending on the configuration of the cut slope and shoring wall, For a
1.5:1(W:V) cut slope above the shoring a uniform lateral surcharge of 20(S) psf
should be applied (where S is the height of the cut slope in feet). We can provide
recommendations regarding building surcharge pressures if necessary when the
preliminary shoring design is completed.
It is important that the shoring design provides sufficient working room to drill and
install the soldier piles, without needing to make unsafe, excessively steep
temporary cuts. Cut slopes should be planned to intersect the backside of the drilled
holes, not the back of the lagging.
Lateral movement of the soldier piles below the excavation level will be resisted by
an ultimate passive soil pressure equal to that pressure exerted by a fluid with a
density of 350 pcf. No safety factor is included in the given value. This soil pressure
is valid only for a level excavation in front of the soldier pile; it acts on two times the
grouted pile diameter. Cut slopes made in front of shoring walls significantly
decrease the passive resistance. This includes temporary cuts necessary to install
internal braces or rakers. The minimum embedment below the floor of the
excavation for cantilever soldier piles should be equal to the height of the "stick-up."
Tied -back soldier piles should be embedded no less than 10 feet below the lowest
point of the excavation, including footing and utility excavations,
The vertical capacity of soldier piles to carry the downward component of the tieback
forces will be developed by a combination of frictional shaft resistance along the
embedded length and pile end -bearing.

sufficient bond and st,ength to transfer the vertical load from the steel section
through the concrete into the soil.
EXCAVATION AND SHORING MONITORING
As with any shoring system, there is a potential risk of greater -than -anticipated movement of the
shoring and the ground outside of the excavation. This can translate into noticeable damage of
surrounding on -grade elements, such as foundations and slabs. Therefore, we recommend making
an extensive photographic and visual survey of the project vicinity, prior to demolition activities,
installing shoring or commencing excavation. This documents the condition of buildings,
pavements, and utilities in the immediate vicinity of the site in order to avoid, and protect the owner
from, unsubstantiated damage claims by surrounding property owners_
Additionally, the shoring walls, and any adjacent foundations should be monitored during
construction to detect soil movements. To monitor their performance, we recommend establishing
a series of survey reference points to measure any horizontal deflections of the shoring system,
Control points should be established at a distance well away from the walls and slopes, and
deflections from the reference points should be measured throughout construction by survey
methods, At least every third soldier pile should be monitored by taking readings at the top of the
pile. Additionally, benchmarks installed on the surrounding buildings should be monitored for at
least vertical mevement. We suggest taking the readings at least once a week, until it is
established that no deflections are occurring. The initial readings for this monitoring should be
taken before starting any demolition or excavation on the site.
DRAINAGE CONSIDERATIONS
We anticipate that permanent foundation walls (will/may) be constructed against the shoring walls.
Where this occurs, a plastic -backed drainage composite, such as Miradrain, Battledrain, or similar,
should be placed against the entire surface of the shoring prior to pouring the foundation wall.
Weep pipes located no more than 6 feet on -center should be connected to the drainage composite
and poured into the foundation walls or the perimeter footing. A footing drain installed along the
inside of the perimeter footing will be used to collect and carry the water discharged by the weep
pipes to the storm system. Isolated zones of moisture or seepage can still reach the permanent
wall where groundwater finds leaks or joints in the drainage composite. This is often an acceptable
risk in unoccupied below -grade spaces, such as parking garages. However, formal waterproofing
is typically necessary in areas where wet conditions at the face of the permanent wall will not be
tolerable. If this is a concern, the permanent drainage and waterproofing system should be
designed by a specialty consultant familiar with the expected subsurface conditions and proposed
construction.
Footing drains placed inside the building or behind backfilled walls should consist of 4 -inch,
perforated PVC pipe surrounded by at least 6 inches of 1 -inch -minus, washed rock wrapped it a
non-wcven, geotextile filter fabric (Mirafi 140N, Supac 4NP, or similar material). At its highest
point, a perforated pipe invert should be at least 6 inches below the level of a crawl space or the
bottom of a floor slab, and it should be sloped slightly for drainage. Plate 11 presents typical
considerations for footing drains. All roof and surface water drains must be kept separate from the
foundation drain system.

If the structure includes an elevatcr, it may be necessary to provide speciai drainage or
waterproofing measures for the elevator pit. If no seepage Into the elevator pit is acceptable, it will
be necessary to provide a footing drain and free -draining wall backfill, and the wahs should be
waterproofed. If the footing drain will be too low to connect to the storm drainage system, then it
will likely be necessary to install a pumped sump to discharge the collected water. Alternatively,
the elevator pit could be designed to be entirely waterproof; this would include designing the pit
structure to resist hydrostatic uplift pressures.
Groundwater was observed during our field work. If seepage is encountered in an excavation, it
should be drained from the site by directing it through drainage ditches, perforated pipe, or French
drains, or by pumping it from sumps interconnected by shallow connector trenches at the bottom of
the excavation.
The excavation and site should be graded so that surface water is directed off the site and away
from the tops of slopes. Water should not be allowed to stand in any area where foundations,
slabs, or pavements are to be constructed. Final site grading in areas adjacent to the building
should slope away at least 2 percent, except where the area is paved. Surface drains should be
provided where necessary to prevent ponding of water behind foundation or retaining walls.
GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL
All building and pavement areas should be stripped of surface vegetation, topsoil, organic soil, and
other deleterious material. The stripped or removed materials should not be mixed with any
materials to be used as structural fill, but they could be used in non-structural areas, such as
landscape beds.
Structural fill is defined as any fill, including utility backfill, placed under, or ciese to, a building,
behind permanent retaining or foundation walls, or in other areas where the underlying soil needs
to support loads. All structural fill should be placed in horizontal lifts with a moisture content at, or
near, the optimum moisture content. The optimum moisture content is that moisture content that
results in the greatest compactec dry density. The moisture content of fill is very important and
must be closely controlled during the filling and compaction process. The on-site sand and gravel
is well suited for reuse as structural fill.
The allowable thickness of the fill lift will depend on the material type selected, the compaction
equipment used, and the number of passes made to compact the lift. The loose lift thickness
should not exceed 12 inches. We recommend testing the fill as it is placed. If the fill is not
sufficiently compacted, it can be recompacted before another lift is placed. This eliminates the
need to remove the fill to achieve the required compaction. The following table presents
recommended relative compactions for structural fill:

Structural fill that will be placed in we' weather should consist of a coarse, granular soil with a silt or
clay content of no more than 5 percent. The percentage of particles passing the No. 200 sieve
should be measured from that portion of soil passing the three -quarter -inch sieve.
LIMITATIONS
The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as
they existed at the time of our exploration and assume that the soil and groundwater conditions
encountered in the borings are representative of subsurface conditions on the site. If the
subsurface conditions encountered during construction are significantly different from those
observed in our explorations, we should be advised at once so that we can review these conditions
and reconsider our recommendations where necessary, Unanticipated soil conditions are
commonly encountered on construction sites and cannot be fully anticipated by merely taking soil
samples in borings. Subsurface conditions can also vary between exploration locations. Such
unexpected conditions frequently require making additional expenditures to attain a properly
constructed project. It is recommended that the owner consider providing a contingency fund to
accommodate such potential extra costs arid risks. This is a standard recommendation for all
projects.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of N&C Investments , and its representatives,
for specific application to this project and site. Our recommendations and conclusions are based
on observed site materials, and engineering analyses. Our conclusions and recommendations are
professional opinions derived in accordance with current standards of practice within the scope of
our services and within budget and time constraints. No warranty is expressed or implied. The
scope of our services does not include services related to construction safety precautions, and our
recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's methods, techniques, sequences, or
procedures, except as specifically described in our report for consideration in design. Our services
also do not include assessing or minimizing the potential for biological hazards, such as mold,
bacteria, mildew and fungi in either the existing or proposed site development.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
In addition, to reviewing the final pians, Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be retained to provide
geotechnical consultation, testing, and observation services during corstructicn. This is to confirm
r,F=nTSCH CONSULTANTS INC.

that subsurface conditions are consistent with those indicated by our exploration, to evaluate
whether earthwork and foundation construction activities comply with the general intent of the
recommendations presented in this report, and to previce suggestions for design changes in the
event subsurface conditions differ from those anticipated prior to the start of construction..
However, our work would not include the supervision or direction of the actual work of the
contractor and its employees or agents. Also, job and site safety, and dimensional measurements,
will be the responsibility of the contractor.
During the construction phase, we will provide geotechnical observation and testing services when
requested by you or your representatives. Please be aware that we can only document site work
we actually observe. It is still the responsibility of your contractor or on-site construction team to
verify that our recommendations are being followed, whether we are present at the site or not_
