SUBJECT: LENORA SHORT PLAT
(FILE NO. LUA09-032 & L07S0079)
Dear Mr. Lissak,
Department of Community and
Economic Development
Alex Pietsclh, Administrator
An application for the Lenora Short Plat, a 6 lot short plat, was submitted to King County
Department of Development and Environmental Services (KC DDES) for review on
December 11, 2007. Before this matter could be heard, the subject property was annexed
to the City of Renton as part of the Benson Hill Annexation (Ordinance #5327) on March
1, 2008. Based on this annexation, the Lenora Short Plat is now within the jurisdiction of
the City of Renton and will be processed accordingly.
The City of Renton Planning Division of CED has now assumed the responsibility for
overseeing this project. The public hearing for the short plat is tentatively scheduled
for May S, 2009 at 9:00 a.m., Council Chambers, Seventh Floor, Renton City Hall, 1055
South Grady Way, Renton. The applicant or representative(s) of the applicant are
required to be present at the public hearing. A copy of the staff report will be mailed to
all parties of record prior to the scheduled hearing.
I appreciate your patience as we work through this transition process. Please note that the
Plat application is vested to King County standards and will be evaluated and processed
to the King County development standards; however, the project is subject to the City's
processes and procedures.
If you have any further questions, please contact.me at (425) 430-7219.

RE: Road Variance Recommendation to the City of Renton
Lenora Short Subdivision (Files L07SO079 and L08VO616)
Dear Ms. Henning:
King County is currently reviewing the Lenora preliminary short plat application pursuant to terms
of the interlocal agreement between the City of Renton and King County. The project site is
located in an area recently annexed by the City of Renton. During our review of the subdivision,
the applicant submitted the enclosed road variance application regarding intersection spacing
along I I6t�' Ave SE. To continue our review of the preliminary short plat, a decision by the City
of Renton is required for the road variance application. The following summary provides a
description of the site issues and a recommendation for the road variance.
Findings:
The proposed short plat is located on the east side of 116`h Ave SE which is classified by King
County as an urban minor arterial street. As outlined in the 2007 King County Road
Standards, this arterial classification requires 500 feet of spacing between intersections.
2. Road access for the subdivision is proposed as a private tract serving 6 lots. The new private
road entrance is located on the east side of I I6t' Ave SE and is approximately 197 feet north
of the existing intersection at 178"' Place SE. Driveway access to the lots will be restricted to.
Road A without having direct driveway access to the arterial street. The private road entrance
will be designed with a driveway cut along the curb rather than using curb radius. This type of
entrance design will better define the roadway entry as private and reduce the number of
public road intersections along 1 I6 h Ave SE.
3. The Lenora short plat has adequate vehicular sight distance along 1 I6,' Ave SE and the road
frontage for the short plat will be improved to the urban arterial standards.
4. Evaluation of the site access has not identified any specific traffic hazards and the new road
entrance is not expected to create problems with vehicular turning movements.
Jennifer Toth Henning
May 12, 2008
Page 2
Recommendation:
King County recommends approval of the variance Iapplication for reduced intersection spacing.
The proposed road entrance provides 197 feet of spacing from the nearest intersection at 178t'
Place SE. Traffic safety issues have not been identified during our review of the short plat.
The enclosed variance application includes a site plan and parcel mapping prepared by the
applicant. The applicant did not provide a specific traffic analysis or evaluation of site .access for
the project.
If the City of Renton determines the road designs are consistent with Renton regulations and/or
design policies, the County recommends approval of the road variance.
If you have questions or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (206) 296-

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Rocale Timmons, Associate Planner, City of
Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The site is located on the east side of 116`h Avenue SE
just south of SE Petrovitsky Road and just north of SE 178t' Place. The applicant applied for a short plat with
King County in January of 2008 just prior to the Benson Hill Annexation, the property was annexed into the
City on March 1, 2008. The property currently is located within the R-4 designation of the City of Renton,
however the property is vested to the County's R-6 zoning development standards.
The applicant applied for a 6-lot short plat, the site is approximately 0.97 acres, the average lot size for the
proposed lots would be 5,900 square feet. Access would be provided by an access tract (Tract A) and a joint use
driveway (Tract B) from 116h Avenue SE.
A road variance application regarding reduced intersection spacing„ from 500 to 197 feet, was recommended for
approval by King County, the City issued concurrence with the recommendation.
The proposed density would be approximately 6 dwelling units per acre. There are no lot depth or size
requirements in the King County code. The lot width requirements are 30 feet. It appears that all lots meet the
30-foot width requirement.
A conceptual landscape plan was not submitted, street trees are required every 40-feet on the street front. A
recreation tract has been proposed between Lots 1 and 2. King County code requires 390 square feet of
recreation be allotted for each lot, which amounts to 2,340 square feet for the proposed tract. King County
further requires that each dimension of the tract be 30 feet in length. It appears that the panhandle that abuts
Tract A is less than 30 feet. That would need to be revised to meet the recreation standards. A tot lot is also
required by King County code and that had not been presented to the planners.
Tract A would be used as access for Lots 1, 2, 5 and 6 and the recreation tract. The joint use driveway, Tract B
would be used as access for Lots 3 and 4. All lots should only gain access from the Tracts and not via 116"` Ave
SE. A five foot dedication right-of-way is required along the frontage of 1160' Avenue SE and street
improvements would be necessary.
A Traffic Mitigation Fee would be required for this proposal.
Currently runoff sheet flows to the north and northeast corner and makes its way towards Petrovitsky Road and
eventually into Soos Creek. The discharge flows through a sphagnum bog within the Soos Creek wetland
downstream. The applicant would be required to provide special water quality provisions because of the
discharge that would flow through this sphagnum bog. The applicant proposes to restrict new impervious
surface areas below the 10,000 square foot threshold, this eliminates the need for the construction of a drainage
facility or the need to mitigate for discharge into the downstream wetland.
Police, Fire and Parks departments have reviewed the proposal and it appears that adequate resources have been
provided. Fire has indicated some concern for Lots 2-5 with its limited access, they have required that Lots 2-5
have sprinklers installed.

This site is located within the Renton School District and they anticipate that they can accommodate any
additional students generated by this proposal.
This project is within the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. A water availability certificate from Soos
Creek Water and Sewer has been included with the application.
Dennis Alfredson, 37702 280"' Place SE, Enumclaw 98022 stated that he is the civil engineer for the project. He
did calculate the amount of impervious allowed for each lot. He did not bring his copy, he assumed it would be
in the file, but was not.
Regarding Staff Recommendation # 10 he wanted to clarify that the 10,000 square feet is in addition to the
impervious that was existing previously. The previously existing pervious area was 11,166 add the 10,000
would equal 21,166 total. They are limited to 2,393 square feet per house. Each house would have a note
recorded on the final plat showing how much square footage they are allowed.
Regarding the recreation tract, he would have liked to make the entrance smaller than it currently shows, it is
just to allow entrance to the recreation tract.
The Examiner stated that 30-feet is King County code and so that is what it must be. He did question if the
access to Lot 2 was sufficient, it appears to be very narrow and difficult to turn into.
Mr. Alfredson stated that the design of the Recreation Tract could be juggled a bit wider, which would affect
Lot 2 access. Only 2 lots are allowed to use a joint use driveway. It was mentioned that there might be some
way to fine tune the final design.
The Examiner stated that some things can be worked out such as the street trees, but the plat needs to meet code
so that he can make a decision, that this is the plat and it proceeds from there. If the Recreation Tract needs to
be widened in order to have the appropriate square footage to serve the six lots, it appears that Lot 2 would have
some problems getting in and out of this parcel.
Ms. Timmons suggested that to reduce the panhandle and widen the actual space of the recreation tract so that
Tract A actually has a portion that extends into the Recreation Tract. The panhandle would become a portion of
Tract A and with that space, increase the Recreation Tract so that it has 30 feet on all sides.
Max Lissak, 11121 NE 53rd Road, Kirkland 98033 stated that he is the manager of Lenora Apartments, LLC.
When this parcel was acquired in November 2006, the lot was used as a dumping ground for stolen vehicles, the
buildings on the site were in terrible condition, they had been used by drug addicts. Approximately 9-10 loads
of old tires were hauled from the site.
Lloyd Buckmeier, 16547 121" Avenue SE, Renton 98058 stated that he had some concerns. He owns the next
two lots to the south of this site. He has two large 36 x 60 square feet buildings that he put up years ago. He has
a lot of room, the building adjacent to the proposed site is 35-feet from the property line and that was done in
order for him to take care of his own roof water. The west side of 116d' is higher than the east side, during the
rainy months the water table gets fairly high on his side of the street. There is no standing water on his lot, but
his concern is that if he ends up with three homes five feet from the property line and they cover all that ground
up that is absorbing all the water now, where is the roof water going to go. Five feet will not take care of the
roof water from three buildings. Depending on the grading done on the new site, if it should be raised any he
would see standing water on his property. During the rainy season the property was a real mud hole. The other
concern is the four lots at the back with a minimum of two parking spaces per lot, if all those people have
company and where will all those extra cars park.

File No.: LUA-09-032, SHPL-H
May 18, 2009
Page 4
The Examiner stated that there would be only one easement driveway into the property. There will be no access
from 1166' to the new homes,
Ka en Kittrick, Community & Economic Development stated that the 2005 King County Surface Water
Manual will be required. That is why the issue of the square footage is important to the city, all measurements
will be verified. It will depend on the quality of the impervious surface that existed previously, how much it
was used, how long it was there. They will look at the history and compare the information provided by the
engineer but overall, the 2005 King County Manual dictates exactly what will happen on this site.
Most likely, if a water vault were to be required it would be placed on the Recreational Tract.
Regarding moving the Recreation Tract, it would be best to shift Lot 2 further west and put the Recreation Tract
between Lots 2 and 3, square it up with the correct footage, get the frontage correct, she was not sure of the
lower end. If a small vault were to be required, they would need the depth.
There could be a modification issued for the Joint Use Driveway to accommodate three access points.
Fire Department has required Lots 2, 3, 4, and 5 to have sprinklers installed. Any pavement less than 20-feet
wide does not allow parking.
Roof water would not be allowed to drop directly on the property, it has nowhere to go, they will have to tight
line it and get it out to 116`s.
It would be preferred that a note be placed on each lot with the total amount of space that they have for their
individual lot to build improvements.
Some parking will be allowed along 116te, and each individual home will have two parking spaces in their
driveway. There will be a five foot dedication along 116`h as well.
Mr. Lissak stated that they would create a Homeowner's Association that would have controlling rules regarding
parking, they will not be allowed to park in front of neighboring property as well as not parking on the main
street. Each homeowner will be required to follow the rules.
As to restricting each lot to their improvements, those rules can be set prior to construction so no one individual
can construct any huge deck, etc. It appears from various trips to the site that there is no collection of water on
the site and that there is sufficient runoff of water as the site is today.
Mr. Alfredson stated that some dirt could be moved around to make the drainage work. They may have to raise
some areas and lower others in order to make the drainage flow to an acceptable storm sewer in 116 b.
Ms. Kittrick stated that the drainage would be inspected, the inspector would contact Mr. Buckmeier to make
sure things are going well. The flow will be kept to the northeast as it is now flowing.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 10:00 a.m.
FINDINGS. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
Lenora Short Plat
File No.: LUA-09-032, SHPL-H
May 18, 2009
Page 5
FINDINGS:
The applicant, Max Lissak, Lenora Apartments LLC, filed a request for a Short Plat,
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit # 1.
The Short Plat is exempt from review by the Environmental Review Committee (ERC).
4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
The subject site is located along the east side of 116th Street SE and north of SE 178th Place, if
extended to the east.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single family uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned R-4 (Single Family - 4 dwelling units/acre). Although the subject
site is now located within the City, the application was submitted while the property was under the
jurisdiction of King County and the county's rules will apply. The subject site is vested under King
County`s R-6 Zone. The standards for lot area, yard setbacks or dimensions and development standards
would be judged against King County standards in effect when the application was submitted on
January 9, 2008.
The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 5327 enacted on March 1,
2008.
9. The subject site is approximately 097 acres or 42,447 gross square feet. The subject site is
approximately 141 feet wide (north to south) by 301 feet deep.
10. The subject site is essentially level sloping down about 4 feet from the southwest to the northeast.
11. The tree inventory found approximately 11 significant trees on the subject site. Those trees are
concentrated in the northeast corner of the property.
12. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into 6 Iots with two tracts to provide access to interior
parcels and a third tract for recreation and open space. The lots would range in size from approximately
4,900 square feet to 7,000 square feet.
13. Access would be provided by 116th Street and a private east -west roadway consisting of Tracts A
(western) and B (eastern). Both tracts would be 20 feet wide. Tract B would be a shared driveway that
may only serve two (2) lots. A variance has been approved for this method of access. Another variance
was issued to allow reduced intersection spacing to permit the driveway to be placed 197 feet from an
existing intersection.
14. Proposed Lots 1 to 3 would run west to east across the north property line with the recreation tract
proposed to be between Proposed Lots 1 and 2. Proposed Lot 2 and the recreation tract key into one
another creating a pipestem access to the recreation track and a dogleg toward the west for Proposed Lot
Lenora Short Plat
File No.: LUA-09-032, SHPL-H
May 18, 2009
Page 6
2. There does not appear to be sufficient room for a driveway into Proposed Lot 2 from its access tract,
Tract A. Proposed Lot 2 cannot take access from the interior Tract B or it would violate provisions
allowing only two lots to share a driveway tract.
15. Proposed Lots 4 to 6, (cast to west) would run along the south property line. Proposed Lot 5 would
have its access from the end of Tract A.
16. Staff has recommended that Proposed Lots 1 and 6, the two lots fronting along 116th Street be
precluded from access to that street to reduce the number of intersections. Access to those two lots
would be from the access Tract A.
17. The applicant will be required to dedicate property along the frontage to install curb, gutter and
sidewalks. The dedication would be approximately 5 feet deep along the frontage.
18. King County requires recreational space of 390 square feet per home or, in this case, 2,340 square feet.
The applicant has proposed providing 2,351 square feet or 11 more than required. The recreation tract
does not provide the required 30 foot pipestem to meet King County's standards for width. Since the
space provided is just above the minimum, shifting space between the recreational tract and Proposed
Lot 2 to allow access could be hard to achieve.
19. The King County code permits a density of 6 units per acre. The density for the plat would be
approximately 5.82 dwelling units per acre using King County standards.
20. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The plat would generate approximately 3
students and they would be spread across the grades.
21. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit or approximately 60 trips for the 6
single family homes. Approximately ten percent of the trips, or approximately 6 additional peak hour
trips will be generated in the morning and evening.
22. Stormwater flows to the north and northeast and eventually into the Soos Creek 2 Wetland and
sphagnum bog. Code requires the protection of the bog. The standards applicable to this project are
still under review since they are based on the amount of original impervious surface. The City will be
seeking to verify values provided by the applicant. Staff has recommended that the applicant be
permitted no more than 10,000 square feet of new impervious surface. After some consideration at the
hearing, it was decided to divide and limit it on a per lot basis and provide that value for each lot on the
face of the plat.
23. Sewer and water service will have to be provided by the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. Fire
flows will have to meet City standards.
24. A neighbor was concerned about stormwater and the grade difference as it might affect his property.
There was also a concern about the permitted setbacks and potential parking issues.
CONCLUSIONS:
In the main the proposed plat appears to serve the public use and interest. The King County regulations
overlay the property and it appears that the proposed short plat meets most of those requirements for
setback, lot sizes and road and some access requirements.

2. The applicant will have to work with staff to provide appropriate dimensions for the recreation tract and
also legal access to Proposed Lot 2. As proposed the plat does not appear to satisfy those particular
County standards. This office will need to see those plans before the short plat can be fully approved.
3. Since a variance was already approved to allow intersection spacing to be reduced from normal King
County requirements, it is appropriate that Proposed Lots I and 6 not be permitted access directly to
I I6th Street. They should be required to access from Tract A and this should be included on the face of
the plat map.
4. This plat must provide appropriate stormwater controls and calculations must be verified for the amount
of credit for older impervious surface as well as dividing the proposed t0,000 square feet of new surface
between the proposed lots and recreational tract. The final number shall appear on the face of the plat.
The proposed plat will provide additional housing opportunities for new residents and the
redevelopment of the site will help increase the tax base of the City.
The new plat will increase traffic on the nearby streets and should pay the appropriate mitigation fee to
help offset those impacts.
In conclusion, the plat appears reasonable as long as appropriate access can be provided to Proposed Lot
2 and the recreational tract meets code standards.
DECISION:
The six lot short plat is approved subject to the following conditions:
The applicant shall work with staff to provide appropriate dimensions for the recreation tract and also
legal access to Proposed Lot 2. This office shall receive a copy of appropriate plans and staff analysis
of that new plat plan before the short plat can be fully approved.
2 A note shall be placed on the face of the short plat requiring orientation for the front yard of Lots 1 and
6 towards 116t` Ave SE and Lots 2 through 5 towards the private access tract or joint use driveway.
A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted to and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager
prior to utility construction approval.
4. The applicant shall be required to provide a detailed tree retention plan prior to utility construction
approval. The tree retention plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project
Manager.
The applicant shall submit a revised short plat plan depicting a recreation tract with no less than a 30-
foot dimension on any side per KCC 21A.14.180.C. The revised short plat plan shall be submitted and
approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to utility construction approval.
6. The applicant shall submit a detailed recreation space plan in accordance with KCC21 A.16 prior to
utility construction approval. The plan shall include location, area and dimensions of recreation area
improvements along with fencing.

7. The applicant shall establish a homeowners' association for the development, which would be
responsible for any common improvements and/or tracts (including the recreation and private access
tract) within the plat prior to final short plat approval.
8. A note shall be placed on the face of the short plat restricting direct access from 110" Ave SE for all
lots. Access shall be provided via the Private Access Tract.
9. The frontage, along 116"' Ave SE, for the full length of the property shall be improved to the satisfaction
of the City of Renton Development Services Division subject to the King County Road Standards or as
modified by variance.
10. The applicant shall pay a Transportation Mitigation Fee based on the new average daily trips attributed
to the project.
11. A note shall be placed on the face of the short plat limiting the new impervious surface to 10,000 square
feet for the entire site. The 10,000 square feet shall be appropriately divided and shown on the face of
the plat for each lot and/or tract.
12. Any future residence constructed on Lots 2 through 5 within the short plat shall be required to install
sprinklers. A note shall be recorded on the face of the short plat to this effect.

G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1. Proiect Description/Baeltzround
The application for Lenora Short Plat was submitted to King County Department of Development and
Environmental Services (KC DDES) for review on January 9, 2008. Before this matter could be
reviewed by King County, the subject property was annexed into the City of Renton as part of the
Benson Hill Annexation (Ordinance #5327) on March 1, 2008. Based on this annexation; the application
for the Lenora Short Plat came under the jurisdiction of the City of Renton.
The applicant is proposing a 6-lot short plat, on a vacant site, with a recreation tract and two tracts used
for access. Proposed lot sizes range from 4,939 to 7,051 square feet with an average lot size of 5,902
square feet. The proposed residential density would be approximately 6.0 du/ac. The project site is
located on the east side of 116"' Ave SE just northwest of SE 178"' Pl. Access is proposed via a 20-foot
wide private access tract extended from 116'h Ave SE. A 20-foot wide joint use driveway tract is
proposed to be extended from the termination of the private access tract in order to serve Lots 3 and 4.
The project site is primarily covered in pasture grasses. A tree inventory indicates approximately 11
significant trees are on the site. The proposed project site is nearly flat and there appear to be no critical
areas on site.
A road variance application regarding reduced intersection spacing, from 500 to 197 feet, was
recommended for approval by King County on May 12, 2008 (County File No. L08V0016). The City
issued concurrence with the recommendation on May 21, 2008 (See Attachments 4 and 5).
2. Environmental Review
Except when located on lands covered by water or sensitive areas, short plats are exempt from SEPA
Environmental Review pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6)(a).
3. Compliance with ERC Conditions
Not applicable.
4. Staff Review Comments
Representatives from various departments have reviewed the application materials to identify and
address issues raised by the proposed development. These comments are contained in the official file,
and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate sections of this report and
the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report.
5. Consistency With Short Plat Criteria
Approval of a plat is based upon several factors. The following preliminary short plat criteria have been
established to assist decision -makers in the review of the plat:
a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Designation
The site is designated Urban Residential -Medium on the King County Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map. The Urban Residential -Medium land use designation is implemented by the
following King County zones: R4; R-6; R-8; and R-12. The proposal is consistent with all
of the following Comprehensive Plan Land Use policies:

characteristics and neighborhood identity, while providing privacy, community space, and
safety and mobility for pedestrians and bicyclists.
✓ Policy Objective Met ❑ Not Met
Policy U-140. Residential Developments within the Urban Growth Area, including mobile
home parks, shall provide the following types of improvements.
a) Paved Streets (and alleys if appropriate), curbs and sidewalks, and internal
walkways when appropriate;
b) Adequate parking and consideration of access to bus service and passenger
facilities;
c) Street lighting and street trees;
d) Stormwater control;
e) Public water supply;
f) Public sewers; and
g) Landscaping around the perimeter and parking areas of multifamily development.
✓ Policy Objective Met ❑ Not Met
Policy U-142. Recreation space based on the size of the developments shall be provided on -
site except that in limited cases, fee payments for local level park and outdoor recreation
needs may be accepted.
✓ Policy Objective Met ❑ Not Met
h) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation
The subject site is designated R-6 on the City of Renton Zoning Map however the project is
vested to the King County (KC) R-6 standards. The proposed development would allow for
the future construction of 6 new single-family dwelling units.
Densi : The base density for the subject site is 6.0 dwelling units per gross acre, The
allowed number of lots is computed by multiplying the site area by the base density. The
applicant would be allowed 6 lots once rounded up (0.97 ac x 6.0 du/ac = 5.82 lots).
Rounding up is allowed per KCC 21A.12.070 Calculations.
Lot Dimensions: There are no minimum lot size or depth requirements in the KC R-6 zone.
A minimum lot width of 30 feet is required. As proposed and demonstrated in the table
below, all lots meet the requirement for minimum width.

area; and interior setbacks are 5 feet. As proposed all lots appear to contain adequate area to
provide all required setback areas. Compliance with building setback requirements would be
reviewed at the time of building permit review. In order to maintain lot pattern in the area
staff recommends, as a condition of approval, that a note be placed on the face of the short
plat requiring orientation for the front yard of Lots 1 and 6 towards 116'J' Ave SE and Lots 2
through 5 towards the private access tract or joint use driveway.
Buildipg, Standards: The KC R-6 zone permits one residential structure per lot. Each of the
proposed lots would support the construction of one detached unit. Building height in the
KC R-6 zone is limited to 35 feet. The maximum impervious lot coverage is 70 percent.
However, please see comments noted on Page 7 under surface water comments. The
building standards for proposed lots would be verified at the time of building permit review.
Internal Circulation: The site is proposed to gain access from 116th Ave SE. Lots 1-2 and 5-6
would gain access from a 20-foot wide private access tract extended from 116'' Ave SE.
Lots 3 and 4 would gain access from a 20-foot wide joint -use driveway extended from the
private access tract.
Parking: KC 21A.18.030 requires that single detached dwellings provide a minimum of 2
off-street parking spaces. As proposed, each lot would have adequate area to provide two
off-street parking spaces. Compliance with the parking requirements will be verified at the
time of building permit review.
C) Natural Environment
Topography_: The property is nearly flat with a slight downward gradient towards the
northeast.
Soils: The soils on the site are classified as Alderwood series. This soil type has a moderate
limitation for low building foundations due to a seasonably high water table.
Wetland & Streams: The applicant submitted a Wetland/Stream Reconnaissance, by
Altmann Oliver Associates, LLC (dated September 2, 2008), evaluating the presence of any
hydrographic features. There are no wetlands or streams on site. A secondary study was
submitted by the applicant, also conducted by Altmann Oliver Associates, LLC (dated
September 3, 2008), in which the report determined if runoff caused by the proposal would
reach a nearby wetland identified as the Soos Creek 2 Wetland, approximately one mile
southeast of the site. It was identified that the downstream wetland included a bog
component, therefore staff reviewed the proposal to determine whether it would be subject to
the 2005 King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) for sphagnum bog
protection, specifically related to water quality. The applicant is proposing to limit the
amount of new impervious surface in order to not exceed the threshold that would trigger
water detention, which is 10,000 square feet of new impervious surface. Therefore the
sphagnum bog protection component of the KCSWDM would not be applicable.
Vegetation: The project site is primarily covered in pasture grasses. A cedar tree, a few
shrubs and 10 maple trees are located on the perimeter of the site.
Wildlife: Small birds and mammals inhabit the site. Larger species may visit the site on
occasion. No threatened or endangered species are known to exist on or near the property.
d) Community Assets
Landscaping_ Per KCC 21 A.16.050, street trees for single family subdivisions shall be
planted at a rate of one tree for every 40 feet of street frontage along all public streets. A
conceptual landscape plan was not submitted with the application. Therefore staff
recommends, as a condition of approval, that a detailed landscape plan be submitted to and
approved by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to utility construction approval.
City of Renton Community and Economic D ment Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LEA10RA SHORT PLAT L UA09-032, SHPL-H (Kin Count DDES File No. L07S0079)
PUBLIC HEARING DATE May S, 2009 Page 6 of 9
KCC 16.82.156 requires that the greater of: 10 trees per acre or 5% of the trees on site be
retained. Of the 11 trees that are on site, 10 trees are required to be retained at the 10 trees
per acre retention rate. A tree retention plan was not submitted with the application material
therefore it is unclear whether or not the proposal would meet the County tree retention
requirements. Therefore staff recommends, as a condition of approval, the applicant be
required to provide a detailed tree retention plan prior to utility construction approval. The
tree retention plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager.
Recreation: The nearest public park is Soos Creek Park and Trail is located about a mile east
of the site. Per KCC 21A.14 residential subdivisions more than four units, developed at a
density of eight units or less per acre, are required to provide 390 square feet per lot of
recreation space on -site. The 6 lot proposal would require 2,340 square feet (6 lots x 390
square feet) of recreation space. The applicant is proposing recreation space, in the amount
of 2,351 square feet; which meets the recreation space requirement. Per KCC 21A.14.180.0
the recreation area can have no dimensions less than 30 feet. It appears that the recreation
tract includes a panhandle less than 30 feet in width. Therefore staff recommends, as a
condition of approval, the applicant submit a revised short plat plan depicting a recreation
tract with no less than a 30-foot dimension on any side per KCC 21A.14.180.C. The revised
short plat plan shall be submitted and approved by the Current Planning Project Manager
prior to utility construction approval. For five units or more the applicant is also required to
provide a tot lot or children's play area, consistent with KCC 21A.14.190. The application
did not include a detail of proposed recreation area improvements. Therefore staff
recommends, as a condition of approval, the applicant submit a detailed recreation space
plan in accordance with KCC 21A.16 prior to utility construction approval. The plan shall
include location, area and dimensions of recreation area improvements along with fencing.
In addition, staff recommends a condition of approval requiring the applicant establish a
homeowners' association for the development, which would be responsible for any common
improvements and/or tracts (including the recreation and private access tract) within the plat
prior to final short plat approval.
e) Adequacy of Public Facilities and Services
Roads/Access: The site is fronted on the west by 1 W' Ave SE a partially improved right-of-
way. Access is proposed via a 20-foot wide private access tract extended from 1160' Ave
SE. A 20-foot wide joint use driveway tract is proposed to be extended from the termination
of the private access tract in order to serve Lots 3 and 4. Staff recommends as a condition of
approval, that a note be placed on the face of the short plat restricting direct access from
116'h Ave SE for all lots. Access shall be provided via the Private Access Tract.
In addition, the applicant is required to dedicate five feet in width (approximately 700 square
feet) for half -street improvements along the parcel's frontage in order to install curb, gutter
and sidewalk. All right-of-way frontages of the property abutting and impacted by the
development are required to be constructed to comply with King County street standards for
the full length of the property. Therefore staff recommends, as a condition of approval the
frontage, along 11 Ob Ave SE, for the full length of the property be required to be improved
to the satisfaction of the City of Renton Development Services Division subject to the King
County Road Standards or as modified by variance.
A road variance application regarding reduced intersection spacing, from 500 to 197 feet,
was recommended for approval by King County on May 12, 2008 (County File No.
L08V0016). The City issued concurrence with the recommendation on May 21, 2008 (See
Attachment 4 and 5).
Per KCC 14.75 an appropriate Traffic Mitigation Fee or Impact Fee shall be assessed and
paid prior to plat recording. The proposed preliminary plat is anticipated to generate

additional traffic on the City's street system. In order to mitigate transportation impacts,
staff recommends the applicant pay a Transportation Mitigation Fee based on $75.00 per net
new average daily trip attributed to the project. Six lots are expected to generate
approximately 9.57 new average weekday trips per each lot. The fee for the proposed plat is
estimated at $4,306.50 ($75.00 x 9.57 trips x 6 lots = $4,306.50) and is payable to the City
prior to the recording of the final short plat.
Surface Water:
The site lies within the Lower Cedar sub -basin of the Cedar River/Lake Washington
watershed. Currently runoff sheet flows to the north and northeast. Most of the runoff
leaves the site near the northeast corner of the site. The drainage then flows north towards
the Petrovitsky Road storm drainage system. Flows eventually discharge into Soos Creek,
which flows past a sphagnum bog within the Soos Creek 2 Wetland.
Originally, the applicant proposed to collect all drainage runoff from the development in the
drainage facility. The drainage facility was required to include water quality for Sphagnum
bog protection. Instead of providing the water quality component the applicant revised the
project to limit the impervious improvements on each lot. The applicant proposes to restrict
new impervious surface areas below the 10,000 square foot threshold, as set by KCSWDM
for Small Project Drainage Review. This eliminates the need for the construction of a
drainage facility or the need to mitigate for discharge into the downstream wetland.
However, there is a question regarding an asphalt driveway on the site that was removed
some time ago. The engineer is counting this previous impervious surface area in his
drainage calculations. The exact amount of impervious surface that will be credited to the
sites maximum impervious are will be followed up and researched at the time the applicant
submits for a utility construction permits. Staff recommends, as a condition of approval, the
applicant be required to place a note on the face of the short plat limiting the new impervious
surface to 10,000 square feet for the entire site.
A Surface Water System Development charge is required for each new single-family lot.
Payment of this fee will be required prior to issuance of utility construction permit.
Police and Fire: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicated that sufficient resources exist to
furnish services to the proposed development. Due to limited access staff recommends, as a
condition of approval, any future residence constructed on Lots 2 through 5 within the short
plat be sprinkled. A note shall be recorded on the face of the short plat to this effect.
Schools: The project site is served by schools in the Renton School District. It is anticipated
that the Renton School District can accommodate any additional students generated by this
proposal at the following schools: Benson Hill Elementary, Nelson Middle School and
Lindberg High School. The Renton School District has indicated that future students from
this subdivision will walk to the elementary school and bussed to both the junior and high
schools.
Water: A water availability certificate from Soos Creek Water and Sewer is required and has
been included with the application. Plans designed and approved by Soos Creek Water and
Sewer with appropriate separate permit and fees is required with the construction plans for
review.
The applicant will show, during engineering review, the location and distance of all existing
fire hydrants within 300 feet of the site. Existing and new hydrants will be required to be
retrofitted with Storz "quick disconnect" fittings, if not already in place.
Sewer: A sewer availability certificate from Soos Creek Water and Sewer is required and has
been included with the application. Plans designed and approved by Soos Creek Water and

RE: Road Variance Recommendation to the City of Renton
Lenora Short Subdivision (Files L07SO079 and L08V0016)
Dear Ms. Henning:
EXHIBIT 4
King County is currently reviewing the Lenora preliminary short plat application pursuant to terms
of the interlocal agreement between the City of Renton and King County. The project site is
located in an area recently annexed by the City of Renton. During our review of the subdivision,
the applicant submitted the enclosed road variance application regarding intersection spacing
along 116 h Ave SE. To continue our review of the preliminary short plat, a decision by the City
of Renton is required for the road variance application. The following summary provides a
description of the site issues and a recommendation for the road variance.
FindiM:
The proposed short plat is located on the east side of 116th Ave SE which is classified by King
County as an urban minor arterial street, As outlined in the 2007 King County Road
Standards, this arterial classification requires 500 feet of spacing between intersections.
2. Road access for the subdivision is proposed as a private tract serving 6 lots. The new private
road entrance is located on the east side of 116 h Ave SE and is approximately 197 feet north
of the existing intersection at 178d` Place SE. Driveway access to the Iots will be restricted to.
Road A without having direct driveway access to the arterial street. The private road entrance
will be designed with a driveway cut along the curb rather than using curb radius. This type of
entrance design will better define the roadway entry as private and reduce the number of
public road intersections along 116'' Ave SE.
The Lenora short plat has adequate vehicular sight distance along i 16t` Ave SE and the road
frontage for tie short plat will be improved to the urban arterial standards.
4. Evaluation of the site access has not identified any specific traffic hazards and the new road
entrance is not expected to create problems with vehicular turning movements.
Jennifer Toth Henning
May 12, 2008
Page 2
Recommendation:
King County recommends approval of the variance application for reduced intersection spacing.
The proposed road entrance provides 197 feet of spacing from the nearest intersection at 178"'
Place SE. Traffic safety issues have not been identified during our review of the short plat.
The enclosed variance application includes a site plan and parcel mapping prepared by the
applicant. The applicant did not provide a specific traffic analysis or evaluation of site access for
the project.
If the City of Renton determines the road designs are consistent with Renton regulations and/or
design policies, the County recommends approval of the road variance.
If you have questions or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (206) 296-

SUBJECT: Lenora Short Plat, LUA-09-032-SHPL
Format and Legal Description Review
Bob Mac Onie and I have reviewed the above referenced short plat submittal and have the
following comments:
Comments for the Applicant:
The legal description noted on the submittal is incorrect as shown. "LOT" should be identified as
TRACT, the block number is missing, the volume of the Plat is missing, and the Plat page
number is missing. The recording number, currently shown, is not typically included in the legal
description. Review and revise as needed.
Information needed for final short plat approval includes the following:
Note the City of Renton land use action number and land record number, LUA-09-020-SHPL
and LND-20-0541, respectively, on the final short plat submittal. The type size used for the land
record number should be smaller than that used for the land use action number.
The "RECREATION TRACT" needs to be further identified, as TRACT C, TRACT 1, or other,
to provide definitive identification for said tract, for recording purposes.
Note on the short plat submittal which lots are to have ownership rights on which short plat tracts.
State on the submittal who is to own the tracts. Is there to be a Homeowners' Association for this
short plat?
The final short plat submittal has to be prepared by, or under, the direction of a licensed surveyor,
and the submittal has to meet all City of Renton and King County recording requirements.
Show two ties to the City of Renton Survey Control Network with published values. The
geometry will be checked by the city when the ties have been provided.
Provide sufficient information to determine how the short plat boundary was established.

Include a statement of equipment and procedures used, per WAC 332-130-100.
The method of determining the short plat boundary should be stated on the short plat submittal.
Note the bearings and dimensions for all interior lot lines.
Note the date the existing monuments were visited, per WAC 332-130-150, and what was found.
Provide short plat and lot closure calculations.
Indicate what has been, or is to be, set at the corners of the proposed lots.
Note discrepancies between bearings and distances of record and those measured or calculated, if
any.
Note whether the adjoining properties are platted (give plat name and lot number) or unplatted.
Note all easements, covenants and agreements of record on the drawing.
The addresses and street name will be provided by the city as soon as possible. Note the addresses
and the street name on the short plat submittal.
On the final short plat submittal, remove all references to trees, utilities facilities, topog lines and
other items not directly impacting the subdivision. These items are provided only for preliminary
short plat approval.
On the final short plat submittal, remove all references to building setback lines. Setbacks will be
determined at the time that building permits are issued.
Provide a "LEGEND" for the short plat drawing, detailing the symbols used therein.
Research resources should be noted on the short plat submittal.
The City of Renton Administrator, Department of Public Works, is the only city official who
signs this short plat. Provide an appropriate approval block and signature line.
A pertinent King County approval block is also needed. Provide signature lines as required.
All vested owner(s) of the subject short plat, at the time of recording, need to sign the final short
plat submittal. Include notary blocks as needed. The title is vested in Edward Rotstein,
Konstantin Bogolyvbov and Maxsim Lissak as of the date on the title report (September 19,
2007) provided for city review. If the ownership of the subject property has changed hands since
the date of said title report, then submit a current report.
Include a declaration block on the drawing, titled "OWNER'S DECLARATION".
Note the dimension from the west short plat property line to the respective street centerline
(1 16"i Ave SE)_

Do not include the "WATER QUALITY TREATMENT STANDARD, "BUILDING
SETBACKS", and "CONTOUR NOTE" blocks on the final submittal.
Note that if there are easements, restrictive covenants or agreements to others (City of Renton,
etc.) as part of this subdivision, they can be recorded concurrently with the short plat. The short
plat drawing and the associated document(s) are to be given to the Project Manager as a package.
Reference the associated document(s) on the short plat drawing, and provide space(s) for the
recording number(s) thereof,
The new private access tract and the joint use driveway tract will be easements, for the
benefit of the future owners of some of the lots. Since the new lots created via this short
plat are tinder common ownership at the time of short plat recording, there can be no new
easements created until ownership of the lots is conveyed to others, together with and/or
subject to specific easement rights. Will private and/or public utilities easements be
required?
Add the following Declaration of Covenant language on the face of the subject short plat
drawing, Lfthe previous paragraph applies:
DECLARATION OF COVENANT. -
The owners of the land embraced within this short plat, in return for the benefit to
accrue from this subdivision, by signing hereon covenant and agree to convey the
beneficial interest in the new easements shown on this short plat to any and all future
purchasers of the lots, or of any subdivisions thereof. This covenant shall run with
the land as shown on this short plat.
New private easements require a "NEW PRIVATE EASEMENT FOR INGRESS, EGRESS
AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT" statement noted on the short plat drawing. See the
attachment.
