Cornwall Boat Lift
The proposed project is to install a new boat lift for Gerald Cornwall at 4151 Williams
Avenue North in Renton Washington. In addition to the installation of the boat lift the
use of the existing finger pier will be modified to allow it to be used by an additional
upland residence. Two total upland residences will be allowed use of the finger pier. A
shoreline substantial development permit and environmental review are required from the
City of Renton. The project site and adjacent properties are zoned as Residential 10du/ac
(R-10). The site is on the shoreline of Lake Washington. The shoreline is armored with
a concrete and steel bulkhead. Gerald Cornwall resides at a nearby parcel in the
community at 1038 N 41st Pl and he has an easement (Recording number
20180419000292) to place a boat lift on the DNR lease parcel at 4151 Williams Avenue
North, on which a community pier has been built. 4151 Williams Avenue North is
currently owned by the Barbee Mill Community Organization. The lift will be located
approximately 144’ waterward of the ordinary high water mark on the west side of an
existing finger pier. The boat lift will be 11’ wide by 13’ long. The bunk of the boat lift
will extend 18” above the ordinary high water mark and the lift will sit on the lake bed of
Lake Washington on foot pads that are 12” by 12”. The lake bed consists mostly of sand
and gravel where the lift will be located. The estimated fair market value of the boat lift
is $12,000.
