E. LAND USE ACTION APPEALS, REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION, & EXPIRATION:
The administrative land use decision will become final if the decision is not appealed within 14 days of the decision
date.
This administrative land use decision will become final if not appealed in writing to the Hearing Examiner on or
before 5:00 PM on August 27, 2025. An appeal of the decision must be filed within the 14-day appeal period
(RCW 43.21.C.075(3); WAC 197-11-680). Due to Governor Jay Inslee’s Proclamation 20-25 (“Stay Home, Stay
Healthy”), the City Clerk’s Office is working remotely. For that reason, appeals must be submitted electronically to
the City Clerk at cityclerk@rentonwa.gov. The appeal fee, normally due at the time an appeal is submitted, will be
collected at a future date. Appeals to the Hearing Examiner are governed by RMC 4-8-110 and additional
information regarding the appeal process may be obtained from the City Clerk’s Office, cityclerk@rentonwa.gov. If
the situation changes such that the City Clerk’s Office is open when you file your appeal, you have the option of
filing the appeal in person.

EXPIRATION: The administrative final plat decision will expire six (6) months from the date of decision. To revitalize
the expired plat, the plat shall be resubmitted as a preliminary plat. One extension to the six (6) month period may
be granted by the Administrator pursuant to RMC 4-7-110.F.
RECONSIDERATION: Within 14 days of the decision date, any party may request that the decision be reopened by
the approval body. The approval body may modify his decision if material evidence not readily discoverable prior
to the original decision is found or if he finds there was misrepresentation of fact. After review of the
reconsideration request, if the approval body finds sufficient evidence to amend the original decision, there will
be no further extension of the appeal period. Any person wishing to take further action must file a formal appeal
within the 14-day appeal time frame.
THE APPEARANCE OF FAIRNESS DOCTRINE: provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may
occur concerning the land use decision. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial decision, but to Appeals to the
Hearing Examiner as well. All communications after the decision/approval date must be made in writing through
the Hearing Examiner. All communications are public record and this permits all interested parties to know the
contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the evidence in writing. Any violation of
this doctrine could result in the invalidation of the appeal by the Court.
