5. Project Narrative and Justification for the Modification Request : Please provide 5 copies of a
clear and concise description and summary of the proposed changes to the project plans.
Please also explain why the changes are needed.
6. Neighborhood Detail Map: Please provide 5 copies of a map drawn at a scale of 1" = 100' or 1"
= 200' (or other scale approved by the Planning Division) to be used to identify the site location
on public notices. The map shall identify the subject site with a much darker perimeter line than
surrounding properties and include at least two cross streets in all directions showing the
location of the subject site relative to property boundaries of surrounding parcels. The map
shall also show: the property's lot lines, surrounding properties’ lot lines, north arrow (oriented
to the top of the plan sheet), graphic scale used for the map, and street names for all streets
shown. Please ensure all information fits on a single map sheet. Kroll Map Company (206-448-
6277) produces maps that may serve this purpose or you may use the King County Assessor’s
maps as a base for the Neighborhood Detail Map.
7. Revised Site Plan (or other plan to be modified): Please provide 5 copies of a fully-dimensioned
plan sheet drawn at a scale of 1"=20' (or other scale approved by the Planning Division). We
prefer the site plan be drawn on one sheet of paper unless the size of the site requires several
plan sheets be used. If you are using more than a single plan sheet, please indicate connecting
points on each sheet.
8. Architectural Elevations (if any exterior building changes are proposed): Please provide 5
copies, for each sign face (N,S,E,W), of a 24” x 36” fully-dimensioned architectural elevation
plan drawn at a scale of 1/4” = 1’ or 1/8” = 1’ (or other size or scale approved by the Planning
Division). The plans must clearly indicate the following:
Identify sign elevations by street name (when applicable) and orientation i.e.
Burnett Ave. (west) elevation
Existing and proposed ground elevations

based upon site elevations for proposed structures and any existing/abutting
structures
Sign materials, colors and architectural design
9. Plan Reductions: Please provide one 8 ½" x 11" legible reduction of each full size plan sheet
(unless waived by your Project Planner). The sheets that are always needed in reduced form
are: landscape plans, conceptual utility plans, site plan or plat plan, neighborhood detail map,
topography map, tree cutting/land clearing plan, critical areas plans, grading plan, and building
elevations. These reductions are used to prepare public notice posters and to provide the public
with information about the project. The quality of these reductions must be good enough so

that a photocopy of the reduced plan sheet is also legible. The reduced plans are typically sent
in PDF format to the print shop and then are printed on opaque white mylar-type paper (aka
rhino cover) to ensure legibility. If your reduced plans are not legible once photocopied, you
will need to increase the font size or try a different paper type. Illegible reductions cannot be
accepted. Some of the local Renton print shops that should be able to provide you with
reductions of your plans are Alliance Printing (425) 793-5474, Apperson Print Resources (425)
251-1850, and PIP Printing (425) 226-9656. Nearby print shops are Digital Reprographics (425)
882-2600 in Bellevue, Litho Design (206) 574-3000 and Reprographics NW/Ford Graphics (206)
624-2040.

REVIEW PROCESS: The Administrator will review your request for modification and issue a written decision within
several weeks. A public hearing is not required unless there is an appeal filed.
