PROJECT NUMBER: LUA18-000545, ECF
APPLICANT: Chip Vincent, City of Renton
PROJECT NAME: 2018 Docket 13, Group C
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Mobile Food Vendors: This docket item is aimed at providing clarity and ease in the
day-to-day administration of the food truck regulations. In brief, staff proposes to allow mobile food vendors as outright
permitted uses (with conditions) in the IL, IM, CA, CV, and CD Zones without the requirement of a Tier 1 Temporary Use Permit
(TUP), and to permit mobile food vendors within the CN, CO, COR, and UC Zones with a Tier 1 TUP, rather than the current
requirement of a Tier 2 TUP. In addition, staff proposes to allow mobile food vendors within the public right -of-way, in the
Downtown Business District, with a ROW Use Permit. Mobile food vendors would still need a Tier 2 TUP to operate in a
residential zone.
Townhouse Review: This docket item examines townhouse development in the city of Renton. Staff conducted a two part
analysis that included review of each commercial and residential zone to determine in which zones townhouses are appropriate
and the applicability of mixed use standards when townhouse development is proposed on commercially zoned land.
Parking Standards: Staff completed an analysis of existing parking standards for attached dwellings in the R-10, R-14, and RMF
zones. The analysis found that an increase in parking complaints may be caused by a variety of factors including housing
affordability in the region, management of existing developments, and the current parking code. Staff recommends amending
the requirements for guest parking, tandem parking, assigned parking, and parking for townhomes.
Service and Social Organizations: Staff reviewed “Service and Social Organizations” for its definition and land use. Staff
recommends amending code so that “Service and Social Organizations” are defined separately and become separate, distinct
uses in the land use table.

Environmental Review Committee
Department of Community & Economic Development
The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee has determined that it does not have a probable significant adverse
impact on the environment. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). This
Determination of Non-Significance is issued under WAC 197-11-340. Because other agencies of jurisdiction may be involved,
the lead agency will not act on this proposal for fourteen (14) days.
Appeals of the environmental determination must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m. on September 14, 2018. Appeals
must be filed in writing together with the required fee with: Hearing Examiner, City of Renton, 1055 South Grady Way, Renton,
WA 98057. Appeals to the Examiner are governed by RMC 4-8-110 and more information may be obtained from the Renton
City Clerk’s Office, (425) 430-6510.
