Existing Conditions
Zoning: Center Downtown (CD)
Adjacent properties are mostly zoned as CD with some areas of R-14 surrounding the
property.
Current Use: The current site has several existing buildings, existing parking and limited
landscaping which are included in the St. Anthony’s Catholic Church campus. It is assumed
that these parcels were initially developed before 1979. There are presumed existing
utilities serving the buildings and an existing drainage system which ultimately connects
to the City of Renton’s storm drainage system.
Special Site Features: There are no presumed critical areas within the Project boundary,
nor are there any special site features that exist.
Soil Type: According to the USGS Web Soil Survey, the soil mapped onsite is “Urban land”.
Proposed Conditions
Proposed Use: This project proposes to increase parking count and improve vehicular and
pedestrian circulation through three existing parcels directly north of the existing St.
Anthony’s church and west of Morris Avenue South. Two existing buildings on these
parcels will be demolished and the building in the north-east corner will remain.
~11, 550 SF Asphalt Parking - The current proposed parking layout will provide 29
parking stalls, including 5 compact stalls and 2 accessible parking stalls. The
accessible parking stalls will be directly next to the building to remain. Access to
this parking lot will only be available within the St. Anthony’s site, reducing turning
movements onto the unnamed alley to the north.

~2,247 SF Landscaping - As required by code, a 10’ landscape strip is proposed
between the proposed parking and Morris Avenue South. Interior landscaping will
also be provided to meet City of Renton code.
~74 LF Concrete Sidewalk - A sidewalk on the southwest side of the project
boundary is proposed to direct pedestrians from the existing church to the
proposed parking, rather than through the drive aisle.
Flow Control
Due to the current existing impervious coverage onsite, it is anticipated that minimal flow
control will be needed for these improvements.
Proposed Off-Site Improvements
This project does not include any off-site improvements within its scope.
Estimated Cost/Quantities/Materials/Excavation/Fill/Etc.
Official estimated quantities, type of materials and construction costs will be analyzed
and calculated during the preliminary and final design of this project.
Trees
This project will remove one 10” diameter tree adjacent to the existing building to be
removed in the southeast corner of the project limits.
Land Dedication
This project does not include any parcels to be dedicated to the City of Renton within its
scope.
Refuse/Recycling
This project does not include a new refuse/recycling screening location, as there is an
existing refuse/recycling screening within the St. Anthony’s Catholic church campus.
