SUBJECT: Request for Standard Extension
Ngochan Short Plat, LUA19-000087, SHPL-A
Dear Mr. Nguyen,
This office has reviewed your request (January 22, 2025) to extend an approved short plat (File No. LUA19-000087) for a period of one (1) year. The preliminary Ngochan Short Plat was
approved on September 10, 2019 and was valid for five (5) years. On April 20, 2020, the Renton City Council adopted an ordinance (Ordinance no. 5968) that temporarily extended the validity
of certain permits by a period of six (6) month due to on-going construction challenges created by the COVID-19 outbreak.
Pursuant to RMC 4-7-070M, the municipal code allows the original approving body to issue a single extension of up to one (1) year to an applicant who files a written request with the
Administrator at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of preliminary short plat approval, provided the Administrator finds that the applicant has obtained issuance of a construction
permit and has made sustained progress towards final construction, engineering, and surveying necessary to record a final plat. Your request meets requirements of Renton Municipal Code
and qualifies for a one-time extension of one (1) year, as an extension request was submitted more than 30 days prior to the expiration of the preliminary short plat approval, the Construction
Permit has been issued and the applicant has made sustained progress towards final construction necessary for the recording of the final short plat. Therefore, your one (1) year short
plat extension request is approved.
The one (1) year extension shall be measured using the expiration date of the preliminary short plat approval after issuance of the temporary six (6) month extension (March 10, 2025)
in order to ensure consistency with the extensions granted to other projects under the emergency ordinance. Please note that all construction must be completed or deferred
and the final plat recorded in accordance with city code prior to the last day of the extension period (March 10, 2026). In addition, please note that no additional extensions will be
granted.
Please contact Jill Ding, Senior Planner, at 425-430-6598 or jding@rentonwa.gov should you have any further questions or comments regarding this one (1) year extension.
Sincerely, / Matthew Herrera, AICP Planning Director
