The proposed tree removal is necessary because the trees have outgrown their space and are causing damage to the parking lot and planter island curbing.

August 09, 2017 GENERAL REVIEW CRITERIA 4-4-130H5: Page 1 of 4 City of Renton Department of Commu 900 SW 16th St Tree Removal/Replac_ & Economic Development t Toutine Vegetation Management Permit LUA 16-000553, RVMP, YES 1. YES 2. YES 3. YES 4. YES 5. YES 6. The land clearing and tree removal will not create or contribute to landslides, accelerated soil creep, settlement and subsidence or hazards associated with strong ground motion and soil liquefaction. Comments: While the subject site is located within an identified Seismic Hazard Area, the proposal would not contribute to hazards associated with strong ground motion and soil liquefaction. The land clearing and tree removal will not create or contribute to flooding, erosion, or increased turbidity, siltation or other form of pollution in a watercourse. Comments: The subject site is located within an identified Flood Hazard Area; however, it is not anticipated that the removal of the subject trees would contribute t, flooding (there is no change to compensatory storage, as the current trees will be immediately replaced), erosion, or increased turbidity siltation. Land clearing and tree removal will be conducted to maintain or provide visual screening and buffering between land uses of differing intensity and consistent with applicable landscaping and setback provisions of the Renton Municipal Code. Comments: Not applicable. Land clearing and tree removal shall be conducted in a way so as to expose the smallest practical area of soil to erosion for the least possible time, consistent with an approved build-out schedule and including any necessary erosion control measures. Comments: The applicant has proposed to remove the existing trees and immediately replant with Amelanchier Autumn Brilliance and/or Princess Diana varieties (also known as Service Berry). It is not expected that an area larger than needed for tree removal and replacement would be exposed and subject to erosion. Land clearing and tree removal shall be consistent with subsection D2 ofthis Section, Restrictions for Critical Areas -General, and RMC 4-3-050 -Critical Areas Regulations. Comments: The land clearing and tree removal shall be consistent with subsection D2 of Section 4-4-130, as well as RMC 4-3-050 -Restrictions for Critical Areas -General, and Critical Areas Regulations. There are no wetlands or wetland buffers in the proximity of the site. See seismic and flood hazards above in subsections a. and b. respectively. Retained trees will not create or contribute to hazardous conditions as the result of blowdown, insect or pest infestation, disease, or other problems that may be created as a result of selectively removing trees and other vegetation from the lot. Comments: The trees proposed for removal were originally planted as ornamental trees and are not a part of a stand of trees, significantly reducing the risk of blow-down. Furthermore, the proposed Amelanchier trees would add variety to the existing trees on the subject site and serve for bird habitat. The increased variety reduces the risk of insect and pest infestation and disease that could eliminate all the trees at the subject site if a variety of tree types is not provided.

They will be replaced by trees that are native to the area and offer a great habitat for birds. This current site is a commercial office building with no other existing improvements planned . The total cost of removal and replacement estimates to approximately $11,000.
