The main parcel (APN 1823059264) is currently vacant and is comprised of mostly grass areas with various areas of pavement and other debris. The other two (2) parcels (APN 1823059159 and 1823059206) are developed with an existing surface parking lot and single- family home, both of which would be demolished as part of the project. The mixed-use building would include approximately 108 structured parking stalls and 17 surface parking stalls, 4,860 sq. ft. of commercial space, various residential amenity spaces, and 97 market rate attached dwelling units (flats). Primary access to structured parking on the site is proposed via two (2) driveways, one off of N 4th St and the other off of N 3rd St. Frontage improvements including sidewalks, curb and gutter, and planter strips along N 4th St and N 3rd St will be completed as part of the project. Stormwater from the site would be conveyed to the city's stormwater conveyance system in the public right-of-way (ROW). Three (3) trees are proposed for removal as part of the project. According to COR Maps, a High Seismic Hazard Area, Wellhead Protection Area Zone 1, and Wellhead Protection Area Zone 2 are located on the site. The project was accepted on August 8, 2022. The project was placed on hold for parts of 2022, 2023, and 2024 as the applicant responded to staff and public comment concerns (Exhibit 14) related to traffic, site design, and the proposed uses in the building. The proposed construction is expected to start in 2025. Construction is expected to be completed in late 2026 or early 2027. Staff received comments from the Duwamish Tribe (Exhibit 12), the Washington Department of Ecology (DOE) (Exhibit 13), and The Boeing Company (Exhibit 14). Staff also received approximately 22 public comments from residents in the vicinity of the project site (Exhibit 14).

Environmental Impacts The proposal was circulated and reviewed by various City Departments and Divisions to determine whether the applicant has adequately identified and addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in conjunction with the proposed development. Staff reviewers have identified that the proposal is likely to have the following probable impacts: 1. Earth Impacts: According to COR Maps, the site is located in a High Seismic Hazard Area. As such, the applicant submitted a Geotechnical Investigation, prepared by Cobalt Geosciences, dated January 8, 2021 (Exhibit 8). The site is generally flat with minor slopes occurring sporadically across the site. The site lies within the Puget Lowland. The lowland is glacially carved with a depositional and erosional history including at least four (4) separate glacial advances/retreats. The lowland is primarily filled with glacial and non-glacial sediments consisting of interbedded gravel, sand, silt, till, and peat lenses. The Geologic Map of King County indicates that the site is underlain by Quaternary Alluvium. In this area, alluvium usually includes variable thicknesses of fine-grained materials Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 5 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN overlying a relatively thick sequence of poorly graded sands with gravel. These materials vary in density and composition with depth and can include areas of organic debris, peat, and silt/clay. The consultant investigated subsurface conditions by observing two (2) test pits using a truck- mounted drill rig to create hollow stem auger borings. These test pits extended to maximum depths of 50.2 feet (B-1) and 34 feet (B-2) below the existing surface grade. According to the report, the soil conditions at the site consist of approximately nine feet (9’) to ten feet (10’) of medium dense, silty- fine to fine-grained sand overlying loose to very dense, fine to medium-grained sand trace and some gravel to the termination depth of both borings. The report also notes the presence of variable layers of organic material, silty sands, and coarser gravel at multiple depths in both borings. During the subsurface exploration, groundwater was encountered approximately 10.5 feet (10.5’) to 12 feet (12’) below grade in both test pits B-1 and B-2, respectively. The report notes the groundwater likely fluctuates between about eight feet (8’) and sixteen feet (16’) depending on the time of year. See additional discussion and mitigation measures related to groundwater below under section 3.b ‘Groundwater.” According to the report, the soils observed on-site are predominately classified as Urban Land by the United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Due to the type of soils observed on the site, on-site infiltration was determined to be feasible. However, the site is partially located in the city’s Wellhead Protection Zone 1 area, which prohibits using infiltration Best Management Practices (BMPs) per the 2022 Renton Surface Water Design Manual (RSWDM). Due to proximity to the Cedar River, the applicant has proposed a direct discharge of stormwater into the city’s conveyance system. The feasibility of utilizing direct discharge would be evaluated as part of the Final Technical Information Report (TIR) review prior to civil construction permit issuance. The geotechnical investigation notes that based on the existing slope gradients on- site, the soils near the developable area will have a slight to moderate potential for erosion when exposed and therefore do not create a significant erosion hazard. The geotechnical investigation identifies three (3) potential foundation systems for the new building including a deep foundation system, rock columns, or a mat/raft grade beam system and notes the various opportunities and challenges with each. The consultant does not recommend a specific foundation system, but instead notes that all three (3) systems identified would adequately support the development. The report includes recommendations for the use of erosion and sediment control BMPs site-wide for preventing and controlling erosion. BMPs recommended include, but are not limited to, limiting site clearing and grading to drier months, providing temporary cover for slope cuts and soil stockpiles, and installing silt fence before clearing and grading begins. The report also makes a variety of recommendations related to site preparation and grading, especially related to the groundwater factor. Specifically, the report notes that if excavations extend into the ground water, water-tight shoring and de-watering wells may be required. See additional dewatering discussion below under section 3.b ‘Groundwater’. Across the entirety of the site, the report recommends stripping six inches (6”) to twelve inches (12”) of soil in order to remove all organic laden materials and establish a stable surface for the new foundations and pavement infrastructure. Due to the presence of a geologic hazard and the challenges with high groundwater, staff recommends, as a mitigation measure, the applicant shall adhere to the recommendations in the Geotechnical Investigation prepared by Cobalt Geosciences, dated January 8, 2021, and any future addenda. In addition, staff recommends, as a condition of approval, the applicant’s geotechnical engineer shall submit a sealed letter stating that he/she has reviewed the construction and building permit plans and in their opinion the plans and specifications meet the intent of the report(s). Lastly, staff recommends, as a mitigation measure, the applicant’s geotechnical engineer shall provide notes on the construction and building permit plans identifying when on-site geotechnical engineer supervision of construction events is recommended. Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 6 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN The applicant anticipates approximately 8,308 cubic yards of excavation and approximately 577 cubic yards of fill to support the construction of the proposed development. As the site is located within the Downtown Wellhead Protection Area Zones 1 and 2, a Fill Material Source Statement prepared by a professional engineer or licensed geologist would be required prior to stockpiling or grading any imported fill on the subject property pursuant to Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-4- 060N.4.e. Alternatively, the applicant could obtain fill from a WSDOT approved source and thereby avoid the need for a fill source statement (RMC 4-4-060N.4.i). Mitigation Measures: 1. The applicant shall comply with the recommendations in the Geotechnical Report prepared by Cobalt Geosciences, dated January 8, 2021, and future addenda. 2. The geotechnical engineer shall submit a sealed letter stating that he/she has reviewed the construction and building permit plans and in their opinion the plans and specifications meet the intent of the report(s). 3. The applicant’s geotechnical engineer shall provide notes on the construction and building permit plans identifying when on-site geotechnical engineer supervision of construction events is recommended. Nexus: City of Renton Comprehensive Plan Policy L-36; State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Environmental Review; RMC 4-3-050 Critical Areas Regulations; RMC 4-4-060 Grading, Excavation and Mining Regulations. 2. Air Impacts: It is anticipated that some short-term air quality impacts could be associated with the work proposed on the site. Project development impacts during construction may include periods of increased dust generated as a result of grading and exhaust from vehicles and equipment. Dust control would be mitigated through the use of temporary erosion control measures, watering or other measures to remediate impacts as needed. No further site-specific mitigation for the identified impacts from typical vehicle and construction exhaust is required. Any further analysis of air quality impacts would occur during site plan review. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 3. Water a. Stormwater Impacts: The applicant submitted a Technical Information Report (TIR) prepared by Insight Engineering Co., dated February 7, 2023 (Exhibit 9). The report analyzes existing conditions and proposed surface water collection and distribution. The site is mostly level with very low angle slopes found sporadically around the site created by past grading. The proposal includes approximately 34,300 sq. ft. of new impervious surface for a total of approximately 35,318 sq. ft impervious surface at project completion. Based on the city’s flow control map, the site falls within Peak Rate Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing Site Conditions and is within the Lower Cedar River Drainage Basin. The consultant completed a field investigation on December 23, 2020 which included the utilization of a truck mounted drill rig to collect two (2) boring samples. The report identifies groundwater approximately 8 feet (8’) to 12 feet (12’) below ground surface. The borings indicate the site is underlain by fill material up to ten feet (10’) below ground surface. The report notes that while some infiltration could be considered, infiltration via full Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 7 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN dispersion is not possible. The project is required to meet the city’s Flow Control Duration Standard. The project is required to meet the requirements in the 2022 Renton Surface Water Design Manual (RSWDM). Core requirements one through nine (1-9), as well as the six (6) special requirements, have been discussed in the Technical Information Report. Per RSWDM Core Requirement #3, the applicant claims the project is exempt from providing flow control and is proposing direct discharge of stormwater to the city’s conveyance system. This is due to the site’s proximity to the Cedar River. As noted in the Advisory Notes (Exhibit 15), staff concurs conceptually with the exemption, but would need to review an updated TIR at the time of civil construction permit review to determine the project’s eligibility for the exemption. Some other required information not included in the report or utilities plan includes but not limited to: a conveyance system analysis, discussion of the provision of flow control credits for BMPs (not allowed per 2022 RSWDM), and a maintenance and operations manual. All requirements would be addressed in the final TIR submitted and reviewed with the civil construction permit application. A Construction Stormwater General Permit from Department of Ecology is required since grading and clearing of the site exceeds one (1) acre. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is also required for this site. The development would be subject to stormwater system development charges. The 2024 SDC fee is $0.92 per square foot of new impervious surface but not less than $2,300. It is anticipated that the requirements set forth by the 2022 RSWDM, or a future stormwater manual adopted by the City of Renton, would be sufficient to mitigate stormwater impacts generated by the proposed development. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is required. Nexus: Not applicable. b. Ground Water Impacts: The COR mapping system has identified the property as located within both the Wellhead Protection Zones 1 and 2. The southern portion of the site is located in Zone 1 while the northern portion of the site is located in Zone 2. Open facilities and open conveyance systems in either zone may require a liner in accordance with the 2022 Renton Surface Water Design Manual. No open facilities or convenance systems are proposed and therefore the implementation of best management practices (BMPs) for stormwater control is preferable. BMPs that rely on infiltration are prohibited in the Wellhead Protection Zone 1 but are allowed in Zone 2. Appropriate on-site BMPs, where feasible, would be required in Zone 2 to help mitigate the new runoff created by this development. The proposed mixed-use building does not typically represent a type of use that would potentially harm the city’s groundwater. Fill is anticipated to be brought on the site and therefore any offsite fill materials shall be from a verifiable source in order to ensure it is clear of contaminants. The city’s grading and excavation regulations require that when imported fill is in excess of 50 cubic yards within a Wellhead Protection Zone, a source statement certified by a qualified professional be provided or confirmation that the fill was obtained from a WSDOT approved source. The Washington Department of Ecology (DOE) submitted a public comment (Exhibit 13) related to the potential need for dewatering during construction due to the high groundwater levels on the site. Specifically, DOE requests the applicant provide the general protocol to be used for dewatering as well as descriptions of any mitigation measures to be taken during construction. City staff shares DOE’s concerns and therefore recommends, as a mitigation measure, the applicant shall submit a dewatering plan prior to the start of construction identifying potential impacts to water supply wells and protection measures to be implemented before, during, and Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 8 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN after the dewatering occurs. The plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to issuance of a civil construction permit. Mitigation Measure: The applicant shall submit a dewatering plan prior to the start of construction identifying potential impacts to water supply wells and protection measures to be implemented before, during, and after the dewatering occurs. The plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to issuance of a civil construction permit.

Environmental Health a. Noise Impacts: Short-term construction activity-related noise impacts would primarily result from the preparation of the building site and improvements proposed of the project. Construction activity hours are restricted to the hours between seven o’clock (7:00) a.m. and eight o’clock (8:00) p.m., Monday through Friday. Work on Saturdays shall be restricted to the hours between nine o’clock (9:00) a.m. and eight o’clock (8:00) p.m. No work shall be permitted on Sundays. Haul hours shall be restricted to the hours between eight-thirty (8:30) a.m. and three-thirty (3:30) p.m., Monday through Friday unless otherwise approved in advance by the Development Services Division. All noise levels would be required to comply with City of Renton code (Chapter 7 Noise Level Regulations) and Washington Administrative Code (WAC 173-60, Maximum Environmental Noise Levels). The anticipated temporary noise impacts would be those commonly associated with mixed-use construction. No further site-specific mitigation is proposed. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is required. Nexus: Not applicable. 5. Vegetation Impacts: The largest parcel that comprises the project site (APN 1823059264), where the six-story building is proposed to be located, primarily consists of mowed grass, scattered shrubs, and Himalayan blackberry. No significant native vegetation exists on the parcel and no trees are located on the parcel. Three (3) trees, including two (2) Western red cedars and one (1) Douglas fir, all of unknown size, are located on the other two parcels (APN 1823059159 and 1823059278) where the surface parking is proposed to be located. All three (3) trees are likely located in areas of future ROW improvements to be completed on N 3rd St and Burnett Ave N as part of the project and therefore would likely need to be removed. However, city staff would evaluate these three (3) trees at the time of civil construction permit application review to determine whether adjustments to frontage improvements can be made in order to retain these trees. The applicant would be required to submit an arborist report documenting these trees as part of the civil construction permit application. The planting of new trees and various ground cover species would occur as part of the proposal along the street frontages, within the surface parking lot, and around the new building. The landscape plan calls for approximately 65 new on-site trees including species such as Tulip, Bechtel crabapple, and Little gem magnolia (Exhibit 3). Species selection and location may change as a result of the site plan review process. Additional analysis of existing and proposed trees, including analysis of the location, species, and size of retained trees, would occur during review of the site plan and the civil construction and building permits. Therefore no site-specific mitigation is recommended. Mitigation Measures: No further site-specific mitigation recommended.

Aesthetics Impacts: The six (6) story building would be set back from the existing public rights-of-way approximately between five feet (5’) and 21 feet (21’) (Exhibit 2). The total height of the building is approximately 78 feet (78’) to the top of the elevator penthouse. However, the majority of the building rooftop is approximately 70 feet (70’) above grade when excluding the elevator penthouse. The proposed building footprint, which is almost 400 feet (400’) long end-to-end, mirrors the long, narrow shape of the site. As such, the applicant has incorporated various design elements to reduce the visual bulk of the building when viewed from the east and west aspects (Exhibits 6 and 7). Most effective is the segmented design of the building, which includes a “bridge” created by the upper four (4) floors connecting the two (2) segments at the approximate half-way point of the east and west facades. A pedestrian promenade that doubles as an emergency fire access road extends from the sidewalk in the Logan Ave N ROW and continues under the building between the two (2) segments. A heavily landscaped concrete pathway on the backside (east) of the site extends between the sidewalks in N 3rd St and N 4th St and provides a connection between the surface parking lot and the retail space on the first floor. The “bridge” incorporates various architectural elements such as a decorative archway with see-through insets, a length of glazing near the top of the building to help break up the roofline and accentuate the “bridge”, and functional balconies for the units located on the floors above the archway. In addition, the overall building design contains significant modulation both along all facades as well as the roofline, which helps to reduce the building mass and breaks up the lengthy east and west facades. Other methods proposed to enhance the aesthetics of the project include, but are not limited to, modern building colors, varying siding materials and reveal dimensions, inset and balconies, and abundant glazing on all facades. At the narrow north and south ends of the structure, overhanging balconies of varying dimensions soften the corners of the building and provide additional modulation. The layout of the site, which includes extensive landscaping elements on all four (4) sides, would include several green space areas situated along Logan Ave N, that will provide noise attenuation from and privacy for residents and visitors to the site due to extensive tree planting, and will also provide a space for passive recreation. A proposed pathway at the backside of the building (east) would connect the public sidewalks in the N 3rd St and N 4th St ROW with the adjacent commercial parking area as well as the pedestrian plaza under the “bridge”. Site infrastructure, such as stormwater BMPs, would be primarily underground or incorporated into the landscaping where feasible, and designed in accordance with Low Impact Development principles to allow for increased green space and decreased impervious surface on the subject property. The building would be subject to Urban Design District ‘C’ Standards. Review of these standards, as well as the overall site design, would occur during the site plan review . It is anticipated that the city’s Urban Design Standards and site plan review criteria would adequately mitigate aesthetic impacts of the proposal. Mitigation Measures: No further site-specific mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 7. Light and Glare Impacts: The addition of new light sources on the subject property would increase the light and glare in the area and could create localized light impacts if not properly designed. On-site lighting would include interior and exterior building lighting, as well as new street and parking lot lighting. According to the applicant, some lighting reflections on the proposed glazing may be noticeable, but no glare from the project is anticipated to cause a safety hazard nor interfere with views due to the proposed Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 10 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN use of low reflective material and significant facade modulation to create shadowing. At a minimum, a photometric analysis would be required with the civil construction permit application demonstrating compliance with the standards listed in RMC 4-6-060.I, Street and Pedestrian Lighting Standards and RMC 4-4-075, Lighting, Exterior On-Site. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 8. Historic and Cultural Preservation Impacts: A representative of the Duwamish Tribe submitted a comment (Exhibit 12) to city staff on August 15, 2022 indicating the project site is an area the tribe considers significant due to it being located in an area the Tribe considers culturally significant. The comment identifies the high potential for discovery of unknown archeological deposits and requests notification of any archeological work performed. In addition, the Washington Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation mapping tool indicates the potential for a historic Native trail in the area. As such, staff recommends as a mitigation measure, the applicant shall submit an archeological survey prepared by a qualified professional prior to the start of any construction. The applicant shall provide notification to Tribes’ cultural committee and the Washington State Department of Archeology and Historic Preservation prior to the start of the survey. Mitigation Measure: The applicant shall submit an archeological survey prepared by a qualified professional prior to the start of any construction.

Transportation Impacts: The proposed project is anticipated to generate more than 20 new PM peak hour trips and therefore, the applicant submitted a Traffic Impact Analysis prepared by Kimley Horn, dated September of 2023 (Exhibit 10), and a Traffic Memo (Exhibit 16) with the application. Primary access to the site would be provided via three (3) new driveways including one (1) off of N 3rd St, one (1) off of N 4th St, and one (1) off of Burnett Ave N. Fire and emergency vehicle access would be provided via the existing curb cut off of Logan Ave N located approximately mid-block between N 3rd St and N 4th St. There will be a total of 125 vehicle parking spaces provided, including 108 on-site (83 in the southern garage and 25 in the northern garage) and 17 concomitant agreement stalls on the adjacent parcel on the southeast corner of the development. The structured parking spaces located on the first two (2) floors of the building are intended to be utilized only by residents and guests. Parking on each floor is accessed by one of the site entrances. There is no interconnectivity proposed between the two (2) garage accesses. According to the submitted TIA, the project is anticipated to generate approximately 705 net new average weekday trips with 47 net new trips (15 in/32 out) occurring during the AM peak hour and 70 net new trips (39 in/31 out) occurring during the PM peak hour. The TIA studied 10 off-site intersections and three (3) on-site intersections including: • Logan Ave N at N 3rd St – Signalized • Logan Ave N at N 4th St – Signalized • Logan Ave N at N 6th Street – Signalized Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 11 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN • Logan Avenue N at N 8th St – Signalized • Burnett Ave N at N 3rd St – Two-Way Stop Controlled • Burnett Ave N at N 4th St – Two-Way Stop Controlled • Park Ave N at N 3rd St – Signalized • Park Ave N at N 4th St – Signalized • Park Ave N at N 6th St – Signalized • Park Ave N at N 8th St – Signalized • South Site Access at N 3rd Street – Two-way Stop Controlled (on-site) • North Site Access at N 4th Street – Two-way Stop Controlled (on-site) • Burnett Avenue N at Commercial Parking Lot – Two-way Stop Controlled (on-site) A level of service (LOS) analysis was conducted at each intersection and found that LOS was within city standards (A, B, C, D, and E) at the horizon year, 2024. The TIA analysis is based on a horizon year of 2024, however, due to project delays the horizon year was updated to 2026 which is reflected in the 2024 memo (Exhibit 16). The analysis assumes an annual background growth rate of 1.5% and included future pipeline projects in the immediate area such as Topgolf Phase 2 and Southport West. The report concludes that additional mitigation measures beyond payment of transportation impact fees are not required to retain the LOS. City staff concurs with the trip generation and trip assignment outlined in the report. Over the course of the project review, staff received approximately 30 public comments (Exhibit 14) related to the impacts of the development on traffic and parking in the vicinity of the project site. Comments received primarily focused on traffic volumes on N 3rd St and N 4th St, where the applicant has proposed site access from. Other concerns included the potential for overflow parking in the immediate surrounding area and the projects overall fit into the neighborhood-built environment. Recommendations or suggestions contained in the comments included allowing access off of Logan Ave N, increasing the amount of on-site parking required, and reviewing how the development fits into the context of the adopted Renton City Center Community Plan. Review of the parking proposed and the development’s compliance with various city plans would occur as part of the site plan review. Staff did request the developer complete a cursory evaluation of a Logan Ave N access in order to see how the entrance would impact the site design. According to the applicant, the narrow nature of the site would not allow for a non-emergency, resident entrance off of Logan Ave N without severely impacting the proposed design and therefore requested city staff continue to review the proposal with the N 3rd St and N 4th St access points. Additional review of the proposed access would occur during the site plan review. The TIA indicates that the city is planning on installing c-curb along N 3rd St between the two (2) eastbound lanes adjacent from the proposed development’s south garage access which would prohibit left turning movements into the southern garage from the southern-most lane of N 3rd St. According to the applicant, the installation of the c-curbing between the two (2) lanes would ensure traffic traveling northbound on Logan Ave N that would turn right onto N 3rd St, cannot cross lanes on N 3rd St to access the south garage entrance, which could create vehicular conflicts when traffic traveling southbound on Logan Ave N turn left on N 3rd St. Contrary to the language in the TIA, the city has no plans to install c-curbing in the area. The intent of the c-curb is due to the safety risk posed by having the driveway entrance located along this portion of the street; however, installation of a c- curb would require vehicles entering the N 3rd St site access (an estimated maximum 6 AM peak, 14 PM peak) to travel around the development to reach the site access point. By altering the signal Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 12 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN phasing at Logan Ave N / N 3rd St to be a protected movement for the northbound right turn onto N 3rd St and the southbound left turn onto N 3rd St, vehicles traveling northbound on Logan Ave N intending to enter the site on N 3rd St would be able to access the site without risk of a vehicle being in the northbound lane of N 3rd St thus allowing a safe turning movement into the site without having to travel around the block. Given that the que analysis and LOS for the revised signal phasing show acceptable results, staff recommends the developer implement a signal phasing change in lieu of installing a c-curb along N 3rd St. Vehicular access to the site is proposed via new driveways off of N 3rd St, N 4th St, Logan Ave N (emergency only), and Burnett Ave N. Street Improvements are regulated by RMC 4-6-060 – Street Standards. See below: N 3rd St – N 3rd St is classified as a Principal Arterial Street with an existing right-of-way (ROW) width of approximately 80 feet (80’). To meet the city’s complete street standards for Principal Arterial Streets with four (4) lanes, a minimum ROW width of 91 feet (91’) is required. Per RMC 4-6-060 half street improvements as taken from the ROW centerline shall be required and include a minimum 54- foot (54’) wide paved road (27 feet [27’] from ROW centerline), a one-half-foot (0.5’) wide curb, an eight-foot (8’) wide planting strip, an eight-foot (8’) wide sidewalk, two-foot (2’) wide clear space at back of walk, and storm drainage improvements. Dedication as determined necessary by final survey to install the improvements shall be required. Due to the one-way nature of N 3rd St and challenges of implementing the Principal Arterial Street standards along the portion of N 3rd St east of the project site, the applicant submitted a street modification request to allow for the retention of the existing curbline and installation of a new eight- foot (8’) wide planting strip, eight-foot (8’) wide sidewalk, two-foot (2’) wide clear space at back of walk, and associated storm drainage improvements. The city’s Transportation Department determined that the existing curb-curb width is sufficient if the pedestrian improvements are provided and therefore supports the modification as submitted. N 4th St – N 4th St is classified as a Principal Arterial Street with an existing ROW width of approximately 42 feet (42’). To meet the city’s complete street standards for Principal Arterial Streets with four (4) lanes, a minimum ROW width of 91 feet (91’) is required. Per RMC 4-6-060 half of street improvements as taken from the ROW centerline shall be required and include a minimum 54-foot (54’) paved road (27 feet [27’] from ROW centerline), a one-half-foot (0.5’) wide curb, an eight-foot (8’) wide planting strip, an eight-foot (8’) wide sidewalk, two-foot (2’) clear space at back of walk, and storm drainage improvements. Dedication as determined necessary by final survey to install the improvements shall be required. Due to the one-way nature of N 4th St and challenges of implementing the Principal Arterial Street standards along the portion of N 4th St east of the project site, the applicant submitted a modification request to allow for the retention of the existing curbline and installation of a new eight-foot (8’) planting strip, eight-foot (8’) sidewalk, two-foot (2’) clear space at back of walk, and storm drainage improvements. The city’s Transportation Department determined that the existing curb-curb width is sufficient if the pedestrian improvements are provided and therefore supports the modification as submitted. Logan Ave N – Logan Ave N is classified as a Principal Arterial Street with an existing ROW of 100 feet (100’). To meet the city’s complete street standards for Principal Arterial Streets with five (5) lanes, a minimum ROW width of 103 feet (103’) is required. Per RMC 4-6-060 half of street improvements as taken from the ROW centerline shall be required and include a minimum 66-foot (66’) paved road (33 feet [33’] from ROW centerline), a one-half-foot (0.5’) curb, an eight-foot (8’) planting strip, an eight-foot (8’) sidewalk, two-foot (2’) clear space at back of walk, and storm drainage improvements. Dedication of approximately one and a half feet (1.5’) would be required pending final survey.

The city’s Transportation Department has reviewed the section of roadway and determined that the existing conditions are suitable for the section adjacent to the site provided the full dedication is provided. Burnett Ave N – Burnett Ave N is classified as a Residential Access Street with an existing ROW width of 60 feet (60’) per the King County Assessors map. To meet the city’s complete street standards for Residential Access Streets a minimum ROW width of 53 feet (53’) is required. Per RMC 4-6-060 half of street improvements as taken from the ROW centerline shall be required and include a minimum 26-foot (26’) paved road (13 feet [13’] from ROW centerline), a one-half-foot (0.5’) curb, an eight-foot (8’) planting strip, a five-foot (5’) sidewalk, and storm drainage improvements. No ROW dedication is anticipated. Pedestrian Improvements: As part of the proposed project, sidewalks would be constructed along both the N 3rd St, N 4th St, and Burnett Ave N frontages of the site and would connect to the existing sidewalk system in the area. Sidewalks installed along N 3rd St and N 4th St would be approximately eight feet (8’) wide, while the sidewalk along Burnett Ave N would be approximately five feet (5’) wide. An existing six-foot (6’) wide sidewalk in the Logan Ave N ROW would be retained. Other Improvements: The submitted documents do not identify the installation of streetlights on any of the street frontages. However, the applicant will be required to demonstrate compliance with the standards listed in RMC 4-6-060.I and streetlights, per city standard plans, shall be provided as needed to achieve the prescribed lighting levels. Undergrounding of all existing and proposed utilities is required on all frontages per RMC 4-6-090 and would be reviewed as part of the civil construction permit. Monitoring: A queuing and level of service (LOS) analysis was included in the memo for the intersection of Logan Ave N / N 3rd Street based on a signal revision that would alternate the signal phasing to provide protected turning movements in the northbound and southbound directions. The existing available southbound que is approximately 280 feet. The analysis concludes that in the AM and PM peak que length would not exceed the available que space; however, a midday condition was analyzed, due to Boeing shift change, and the analysis shows that the 2026 baseline condition has a que of 374 feet while the 2026 with project condition has a que 411 feet (further it is noted that the 2024 existing condition has a que of 356 feet). The memo indicates that while the que length exceeds the available space all vehicles were able to complete the turning movement within the designated cycle. Further the analysis showed that the LOS for the intersection remained at an acceptable level and unchanged from the TIA. In order to ensure any future impacts are properly addressed under future conditions, staff recommends as a mitigation measure: The Level of Service (LOS) queuing and safety components of the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) shall be subject to a subsequent monitoring plan scheduled within 15 months of receiving certificate of occupancy (Subject Year) with compliance objectives as listed below: a. A LOS analysis shall be conducted and demonstrate that all subject intersections (Logan Ave N/N 4th St, Logan Ave N/N 3rd St, Burnett Ave N/N 4th St, Burnett Ave N/N 3rd St, and all project site driveways) comply with city requirements. Including that all subject intersections operate at LOS D or better except for Logan Ave N intersections, which shall operate at LOS E or better; b. Queue analysis shall be conducted at the Logan Ave N/N 3rd St intersection; c. A safety analysis shall be conducted and demonstrate that all subject intersections comply with city requirements; or Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 14 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN d. Other acceptable methodology to demonstrate effectiveness of the intersections meets the design intent. Furthermore, analysis shall be performed for each of the following scenarios: • Subject Year baseline conditions; • Subject Year Without the Project; • Projection of the Subject Year using the 2024 baseline conditions/background growth rates used in the TIA dated September 2023; or • Other similar scenarios to meet the intent. The intent of these scenarios is to determine the project’s actual impacts to the intersections as compared to the impacts modeled at time of land use application modeling. The results of the monitoring plan shall be submitted to the city within 45 days of completion of monitoring plan implementation. The city may require mitigation for impacts caused by the project that are in violation of city standards such as, altering signal phasing, installation of channelization controls such as C-curb, or other similar mitigation measures. To ensure monitoring is performed, the applicant shall post a surety device with the city in an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the transportation impact fee calculated at the time of building permit issuance. The surety shall be due prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy and will be released upon either approval of a monitoring report or implementation of mitigation measures as required by the monitoring report. Safety: Collision history at the ten (10) existing intersections over a five (5) year span (January 2017- December 2021) indicates 115 total collisions. Over half of the documented collisions during the period occurred at the intersections of Park Ave N/N 3rd St and Park Ave N/N 4th St, resulting in intersection collision rates of approximately one (1) and 1.94 collisions per million entering vehicles, respectively. The collision rates at all eight (8) other intersections were less than one (1) per million entering vehicles. The TIA recommends intersections with more than one (1) collision per million vehicles may warrant additional analysis. However, due to the distance between the project site and the two (2) intersections exceeding the threshold, which exceeds a quarter mile, the applicant’s proposal would unlikely create safety hazards or have a negative effect in collision rates and therefore no further study is recommended by staff. Parking: The applicant proposes to provide parking to accommodate approximately the 97 attached dwelling units and proposed ground floor commercial space parking spaces. RMC 4-4-080F.10.d requires a minimum of one (1) parking space per attached dwelling unit and allows a maximum of 1.75 per unit. The applicant has proposed a total of 108 parking spaces, which includes one (1) per unit and eleven (11) guest spaces. The applicant indicated their intent to assign one (1) parking space per dwelling unit in order to eliminate the need for residents to leave the site should one of the parking levels be fully occupied. Commercial space (4,852 gross square feet proposed) is typically based on net square footage or dining room area for eating establishments and generally ranges from two (2) spaces per 1,000 net square feet and ten (10) spaces per 1,000 square feet of dining area. Medical dental offices (25,000 gross square feet proposed) require a minimum and maximum of five (5) spaces per 1,000 square feet of net floor area. The applicant has not determined a tenant, however the 17 off-site commercial-only spaces would be providing approximately three and a half (3.5) spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross square footage. Compliance with parking requirements would be further analyzed as part of the site plan review. Concurrency: The proposal passes the city’s Transportation Concurrency Test per RMC 4-6-070.D (Exhibit 11), a test based upon the test of the citywide Transportation Plan, consideration of growth Docusign Envelope ID: B9E3BE8E-AAC1-4481-A70F-3C4FE398F6D5 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Logan Six Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000283, ECF, SA-H Report of January 6, 2025 Page 15 of 16 SR_ERC Report_Logan Six_240224_FIN levels included in the LOS‐tested Transportation Plan, payment of a Transportation Mitigation Fee, and an application of site-specific mitigation. Transit: A King County Metro bus stop is located directly in front of the project site on the eastside of Logan Ave N. The bus stop serves the RapidRide F line, which links the Burien Transit Center, SeaTac, the Tukwila Sounder Station, Renton Transit center, and the Renton Landing. In order to avoid impacts to service and ensure coordination between the applicant and King County Metro during construction, staff recommends as a mitigation measure, the applicant shall coordinate with King County Metro prior to submitting construction permits to identify any needed accommodations for the abutting transit stop on Logan Ave N that need to occur during construction of the site. Evidence of the coordination with King County Metro and the accommodation(s) shall be shown on the civil construction permit plans to be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to permit issuance. Increased traffic created by the development would be mitigated by payment of transportation impact fees and compliance with the required mitigation measures. The transportation impact fee that is current at the time of building permit application will be levied. Mitigation Measures: 1. The applicant shall coordinate with King County Metro prior to submitting construction permits to identify any needed accommodations for the abutting transit stop on Logan Ave N that need to occur during construction of the site. Evidence of the coordination with King County Metro and the accommodation(s) shall be shown on the civil construction permit plans to be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to permit issuance. 2. The applicant shall construct intersection controls consistent with those outlined in the Logan Six – Comment Response Memorandum, prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc, dated May 9, 2024, and the Traffic Impact Analysis, prepared by Kimley Horn, dated September of 2023, prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. The Level of Service (LOS) queuing and safety components of the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) shall be subject to a subsequent monitoring plan scheduled after twelve (12) months, but no more than fifteen (15) months, of receiving certificate of occupancy (Subject Year) with compliance objectives as listed below: • A LOS analysis shall be conducted and demonstrate that all subject intersections (Logan Ave N/N 4th St, Logan Ave N/N 3rd St, Burnett Ave N/N 4th St, Burnett Ave N/N 3rd St, and all project site driveways) comply with city requirements. Including that all subject intersections operate at LOS D or better except for Logan Ave N intersections, which shall operate at LOS E or better; • Queue analysis shall be conducted at the Logan Ave N/N 3rd St intersection; • A safety analysis shall be conducted and demonstrate that all subject intersections comply with city requirements; or • Other acceptable methodology to demonstrate effectiveness of the intersections meets the design intent.
