A. Consistency with Plans and Regulations:
The proposed community center use is consistent with the goals of the Renton Comprehensive
Plan and meets the general intent of the Commercial Arterial (CA) zoning designation.
Educational, cultural, and religious assembly uses are permitted through a Conditional Use
Permit and will operate in harmony with adjacent uses and City regulations.
B. Appropriate Location:
The suites are located in an existing commercial building with ample parking, accessibility, and
minimal conflicts with nearby properties. This site is well suited to host community programming
due to its layout, existing infrastructure, and central location for Renton-area families.
C. Effect on Adjacent Properties:
The use is compatible with neighboring tenants. Most programming will occur outside of typical
business hours, with weekend and evening events reducing potential conflicts. No significant
noise, traffic, or public disruption is anticipated.
D. Compatibility:
The building’s structure, design, and layout are well suited for flexible community use. The
activities proposed are compatible with the surrounding office, service, and commercial uses.
E. Parking:
The site includes shared parking typical for a commercial office plaza. The community center
activities are scheduled for low-traffic periods (evenings and weekends), reducing pressure on
daytime parking demands.
F. Traffic:
Minimal traffic impact is anticipated. The site is accessible via SW 41st Street and has existing
access infrastructure in place.
G. Noise, Light, and Glare:
All activities will occur indoors. No excessive noise, lighting, or glare is expected. Programming
is limited to modest group sizes and is not intended for large-scale or amplified outdoor events.
H. Landscaping:
No landscaping changes are proposed. Existing conditions will be maintained, and no exterior
modifications are requested.
