transition between rural zones and higher density
residential zones.

encouraging all citizens to join in this special observance and to consider giving back to our
community as mentors. Fawn Perkowsky, Operations Manager with Communities In Schools
of Renton (CISR) accepted the proclamation with thanks.
MOVED BY WITSCHI, SECONDED BY PAVONE, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE
PROCLAMATION. CARRIED.
SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS
a) Police: Camera Registration Program: Police Chief Ed VanValey introduced Cyndie Parks,
who provided a brief presentation on a new crime prevention program that will allow
residents and business owners to help solve crime and assist in lowering incidents of criminal
activity, by registering external business or personal camera locations with the City of Renton.
b) Police: Take Me Home Program: Cyndie Parks provided a brief presentation on the Take Me
Home Program, a free location search service designed for individuals with autism, Down
syndrome, developmental or cognitive disabilities, and senior citizens suffering from
dementia or Alzheimer's who have gone missing.
PUBLIC MEETING
a) Bill Annexation (A-18-002): this being the date set and proper notices having been posted
and published in accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Pro Tempore Persson opened
the public meeting to consider the 10% Notice of Intent to Commence Annexation
Proceedings for the proposed Bill Annexation.
Long Range Planning Manager Angie Mathias reported that the proposed Bill Annexation site
is at the eastern portion of City limits in the East Plateau Community Planning Area, and
bordered to the north by a parcel line near SE 3rd St., at 154th Ave SE to the east, parcel lines
at SE 139th Place to the south (if extended), and 152nd Ave SE to the west. She noted that the
area has no regulated slopes or wetlands and streams in the immediate vicinity of the site.
Ms. Mathias reported that if the site were to be annexed the fire authority, utilities, and
school district would remain unchanged.
Reviewing the site's zoning, Ms. Mathias stated that the area is designated in King County's
Comprehensive Plan as Urban Residential Low with R-4 zoning. She reported that the City has
designated the site as Residential Low Density which provides the City with the option to zone
it as Resource Conservation (RC) allowing one dwelling unit per 10 acres, R-1 allowing one
dwelling unit per acre, or R-4 allowing four dwelling units per acre. She specified that this site
was pre -zoned in 2007 with R-4 zoning.
Ms. Mathias reported that currently there are three dwellings on the site with an estimated
eight residents. It is estimated there could be a total of twenty additional dwelling units with
an estimated additional fifty-six residents, based on the current zoning standards. If annexed,
a conservative estimate of the fiscal impacts are that there would be a 3.5% annual cost
increase and a 2.5% annual revenue increase.
January 14, 2019 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AGENDA ITEM #7. a)
Concluding, Ms. Mathias stated that a comment was received by a southern neighboring
property that would also like to be included in the annexation area, and that the proponent is
supportive of this addition. Additionally, the proposed annexation is generally consistent with
City annexation policies and Boundary Review board objectives, and the City's best interests
and general welfare would be served by this annexation.
There being no public comment, it was
MOVED BY PRINCE, SECONDED BY WITSCHI, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC
MEETING. CARRIED.

Leak Adjustment Policy (Ordinance 5600, 6-15-2011)
❑ The City will process and grant no more than one water billing adjustment for water leaks on the
customers' side of the water meter per water service connection every five (5) years. Adjustments
will be calculated over the billing periods when the water leak occurred, up to a maximum of two
(2) regular meter reading cycles. Leak adjustments will be granted for service tines only between
the meter and the foundation of the building.
❑ A written request for a water billing adjustment must be submitted to Utility Billing Customer
Service within sixty (60) days of discovery of the water leak and/or sixty (60) days of receipt of a
notice from the City regarding high water consumption and that a leak might have occurred. The
written request must include the service address, billing periods over which the leak occurred,
location of the leak and a copy of the repair receipt with a clear written description of the
completed repair. Photos verifying the repair and the location of the leak are strongly
recommended.
Adjustment Methodology (Ordinance 5210, 6-5-06)
L' The water portion of the bill will be adjusted by charging for only 50% of the excess consumption
charge over the billing period(s) when the leak occurred Example of an adjusted water billing
calculation: (0.50 X Consumption in excess of historical average for billing period) X
Commodity Rate. Adjustments greater than $2,000 shall be submitted to the Finance Committee
for approval or denial. There will be no adjustment of the Basic Monthly Charge or any other
water charge. (Ord. 5210, 6-5-2006)
❑ For non-residential sewer accounts, a full adjustment of the sewer bill will be made for all leaked
water that did not enter the sanitary sewer system. The adjustment will be determined by
averaging normal water consumption from previous representative billing periods and charging
wastewater volume rates based on this normal average volume. Adjustments greater than $2,000
shall be submitted to the Finance Committee for approval or denial. There will be no adjustment
of the base charge or any other sewer charge.

SUBJECT: Bad Debt Write Off
According to City Policy & Procedure 220-03, the City Council's Finance Committee
can recommend writing off of bad debt over $100.00 that has been deemed uncollectable
from the City's accounting records after approval. A detailed list of each account follows
this memorandum. The total value of debt submitted for write off is $20,278.27
Finance staff reviews the outstanding debt and makes an attempt to locate the
resident/business and collect payment. If unsuccessful the debt is turned over to a
collection agency. After 12 months, Finance staff reviews the uncollected outstanding
debts with the collection agency to identify debts that cannot be collected. In the case of
the attached report, the debt relates to customers whose debt remains uncollectable based
on the business closing, bankruptcy filed, or unable to locate the customer. Per policy
220-03 the debt held at the collection agency and still outstanding after one year should
be written off.
Finance staff requests the Council's approval to write off the listed debts from the City's
accounting records.

EXT.:
Issuance of Local Revitalization Financing LTGO Bonds
Refer to Finance Committee
Administrative Services Department
Jan Hawn, Administrative Services Administrator
6858
Debt service payments are funded by a credit against the State's portion of the local sales and use tax revenue
generated within the revitalization area.
The City Council approved Ordinance 5481 creating the South Lake Washington Revitalization Area on August
17, 2009. Staff submitted an application to the Washington State Department of Revenue and was approved
for State funding through the Local Revitalization Financing program (LRF). The City requested the maximum
annual state contribution of $500,000 for a period of not to exceed 25 years to assist in the funding for public
infrastructure improvements.
The primary stipulation to receiving the LRF funds, is that the City must prove that the revitalization area has
generated incremental local sales and property tax revenue equal to or greater than the State's contribution
to the City. The amount generated is cumulative and since the 2010 base reporting year, the RA has generated
$13.7 million in incremental sales tax revenue through December 31, 2018.

SUBJECT:
Issuance of Local Revitalization Financing LTGO Bonds
ISSUE
Should the City issue Limited Tax General Obligation (LTGO) bonds generating
approximately $8.5 million in project proceeds to fund public improvements in the
South Lake Washington Revitalization Area funded by a local option sales and use tax?
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the issuance of LTGO bonds generating approximately
$8.5 million in project proceeds funded by a local option sales and use tax to fund public
infrastructure improvements.
BACKGROUND
In 2009 the Legislature adopted the Washington Community Revitalization Financing
Act. Part of this program was the establishment of Local Revitalization Financing (LRF)
which allowed for cities to establish revitalization areas (RAs). By doing so, cities could
levy a credit against the State's portion of the local sales and use tax revenue generated
in the RA. This levy can be used to fund public infrastructure including main
thoroughfares, trail improvements, utility upgrades, and high -capacity bus rapid transit
facilities located within the RA.
The City Council approved Ordinance 5481 creating the South Lake Washington
Revitalization Area on August 17, 2009. Staff submitted an application to the
Washington State Department of Revenue and was approved for State funding through
the Local Revitalization Financing program (LRF). The City requested the maximum
annual state contribution of $500,000 for a period of not to exceed 25 years to assist in
the funding for public infrastructure improvements.

ordinance. The Bond Registrar shall be responsible for its representations contained in the
Certificate of Authentication of the Bonds.
(b) Registered Ownership. The City and the Bond Registrar, each in its
discretion, may deem and treat the Registered Owner of each Bond of a series as the absolute
owner thereof for all purposes (except as provided in a Continuing Disclosure Certificate), and
neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

be transferred as herein provided. All such payments made as described in Section 4(g) shall
be valid and shall satisfy and discharge the liability of the City upon such Bond to the extent of
the amount or amounts so paid.

amount in respect of the principal of or interest on Bonds, any notice which is permitted or
required to be given to Registered Owners under this ordinance (except such notices as shall
be required to be given by the City to the Bond Registrar or to DTC (or any successor
depository)), or any consent given or other action taken by DTC (or any successor depository)
as the Registered Owner. For so long as any Bonds are held by a depository, DTC or its
successor depository or its nominee shall be deemed to be the Registered Owner for all
purposes hereunder, and all references herein to the Registered Owners shall mean DTC (or
any successor depository) or its nominee and shall not mean the owners of any beneficial
interest in such Bonds.
(d) Use of Depository.
(1) The Bonds shall be registered initially in the name of "Cede &
Co.," as nominee of DTC, with one Bond of each series maturing on each of the maturity dates
for the Bonds in a denomination corresponding to the total principal therein designated to
mature on such date. Registered ownership of such Bonds, or any portions thereof, may not
thereafter be transferred except (A) to any successor of DTC or its nominee, provided that any
such successor shall be qualified under any applicable laws to provide the service proposed to
be provided by it; (B) to any substitute depository appointed by the Administrative Services
Administrator pursuant to subsection (2) below or such substitute depository's successor; or
(C) to any person as provided in subsection (4) below.

through DTC or its successor (or any substitute depository or its successor), the Administrative
Services Administrator may hereafter appoint a substitute depository. Any such substitute
depository shall be qualified under any applicable laws to provide the services proposed to be
provided by it.
(3) In the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of
subsection (1) above, the Bond Registrar shall, upon receipt of all outstanding Bonds together
with a written request on behalf of the Administrative Services Administrator, issue a single
new Bond for each maturity of that series then outstanding, registered in the name of such
successor depository or such substitute depository, or their nominees, as the case may be, all
as specified in such written request of the Administrative Services Administrator.
(4) In the event that (A) DTC or its successor (or substitute depository
or its successor) resigns from its functions as depository, and no substitute depository can be
obtained, or (B) the Administrative Services Administrator determines that it is in the best
interest of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds that such owners be able to obtain physical
bond certificates, the ownership of such Bonds may then be transferred to any person or entity
as herein provided, and shall no longer be held by a depository. The Administrative Services
Administrator shall deliver a written request to the Bond Registrar, together with a supply of
physical bonds, to issue Bonds as herein provided in any authorized denomination. Upon
receipt by the Bond Registrar of all then outstanding Bonds of a series together with a written
request on behalf of the Administrative Services Administrator to the Bond Registrar, new

names of such persons as are requested in such written request.
(e) Registration of Transfer of Ownership or Exchange; Change in
Denominations. The transfer of any Bond may be registered and Bonds may be exchanged, but
no transfer of any such Bond shall be valid unless it is surrendered to the Bond Registrar with
the assignment form appearing on such Bond duly executed by the Registered Owner or such
Registered Owner's duly authorized agent in a manner satisfactory to the Bond Registrar.
Upon such surrender, the Bond Registrar shall cancel the surrendered Bond and shall
authenticate and deliver, without charge to the Registered Owner or transferee therefor, a
new Bond (or Bonds at the option of the new Registered Owner) of the same date, series,
maturity, and interest rate and for the same aggregate principal amount in any authorized
denomination, naming as Registered Owner the person or persons listed as the assignee on the
assignment form appearing on the surrendered Bond, in exchange for such surrendered and
cancelled Bond. Any Bond may be surrendered to the Bond Registrar and exchanged, without
charge, for an equal aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same date, series, maturity,
and interest rate, in any authorized denomination. The Bond Registrar shall not be obligated
to register the transfer of or to exchange any Bond during the 15 days preceding any principal
payment or redemption date.
(f) Bond Registrar's Ownership of Bonds. The Bond Registrar may become
the Registered Owner of any Bond with the same rights it would have if it were not the Bond
Registrar, and to the extent permitted by law, may act as depository for and permit any of its
officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any

Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America. Interest on the Bonds
shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months. For so long as
all Bonds are held by a depository, payments of principal thereof and interest thereon shall be
made as provided in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC referred to in the
Letter of Representations. In the event that the Bonds are no longer held by a depository,
interest on the Bonds shall be paid by check or draft mailed to the Registered Owners at the
addresses for such Registered Owners appearing on the Bond Register on the Record Date, or
upon the written request of a Registered Owner of more than $1,000,000 of Bonds (received
by the Bond Registrar at least by the Record Date), such payment shall be made by the Bond
Registrar by wire transfer to the account within the United States designated by the Registered
Owner. Principal of the Bonds shall be payable upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds
by the Registered Owners at the designated office of the Bond Registrar.
If any Bond is duly presented for payment and funds have not been provided by
the City on the applicable payment date, then interest will continue to accrue thereafter on the
unpaid principal thereof at the rate stated on the Bond until the Bond is paid.
Section 5. Redemption Prior to Maturity and Purchase of Bonds.
(a) Mandatory Redemption of Term Bonds and Optional Redemption. The Bonds of
each series shall be subject to mandatory redemption of term bonds to the extent, if any, set
forth in the Certificate of Award and as approved by a Designated Representative pursuant to
-13-

AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
Section 12. The Bonds of each series shall be subject to optional redemption on the dates, at
the prices and under the terms set forth in the Certificate of Award approved by a Designated
Representative pursuant to Section 12.
(b) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. For as long as the Bonds of a series are held
in book -entry only form, the selection of particular Bonds within a series and maturity to be
redeemed shall be made in accordance with the operational arrangements then in effect at
DTC. If the Bonds are no longer held by a depository, the selection of such Bonds to be
redeemed and the surrender and reissuance thereof, as applicable, shall be made as provided
in the following provisions of this subsection (b). If the City redeems at any one time fewer
than all of the Bonds of a series having the same maturity date, the particular Bonds or
portions of Bonds of such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by lot (or in such manner
as determined by the Bond Registrar) in increments of $5,000. In the case of a Bond of a
denomination greater than $5,000, the City and the Bond Registrar shall treat each Bond as
representing such number of separate Bonds each of the denomination of $5,000 as is
obtained by dividing the actual principal amount of such Bond by $5,000. In the event that
only a portion of the principal sum of a Bond is redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the
designated office of the Bond Registrar there shall be issued to the Registered Owner, without
charge therefor, for the then unredeemed balance of the principal sum thereof, at the option
of the Registered Owner, a Bond or Bonds of like series, maturity and interest rate in any of the
denominations herein authorized.

AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
(c) Notice of Redemption.
(1) Official Notice. For so long as the Bonds of a series are held by a
depository, notice of redemption shall be given in accordance with the operational
arrangements of DTC as then in effect, and neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall
provide any notice of redemption to any Beneficial Owners. The notice of redemption may be
conditional. Unless waived by any Registered Owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice
of any such redemption (which redemption may be conditioned by the Bond Registrar on the
receipt of sufficient funds for redemption or otherwise) shall be given by the Bond Registrar on
behalf of the City by mailing a copy of an official redemption notice by first class mail at least
20 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Registered
Owner of the Bond or Bonds to be redeemed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at
such other address as is furnished in writing by such Registered Owner to the Bond Registrar.
All official notices of redemption shall be dated and shall state:
(A) the redemption date,
(B) the redemption price,
(C) if fewer than all outstanding Bonds of such series are to be
redeemed, the identification by series and maturity (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed,
(D) any conditions to redemption,
(E) that unless conditional notice of redemption has been given and
such conditions have either been satisfied or waived, on the redemption date the redemption
-15-
10018 00013ia08ep42ck
AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
price shall become due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for
redemption, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date, and
(F) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of
the redemption price, which place of payment shall be the designated office of the Bond
Registrar.
On or prior to any redemption date, unless any condition to such redemption has not
been satisfied or waived or notice of such redemption has been rescinded or revoked, the City
shall deposit with the Bond Registrar an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date. The City
retains the right to rescind any redemption notice and the related optional redemption of
Bonds by giving notice of rescission to the affected Registered Owners at any time on or prior
to the scheduled redemption date. Any notice of optional redemption that is so rescinded
shall be of no effect, and the Bonds for which the notice of optional redemption has been
rescinded shall remain outstanding.
(2) Effect of Notice; Bonds Due. If notice of redemption has been given and
not rescinded or revoked, or if the conditions set forth in a conditional notice of redemption
have been satisfied or waived, the Bonds of such series or portions of Bonds to be redeemed
shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein
specified, and from and after such date such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear
interest. Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such
Bonds shall be paid by the Bond Registrar at the redemption price. Installments of interest due
on or prior to the redemption date shall be payable as herein provided for payment of interest.
-16-
10018 00013ia08ep42ck
AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be canceled by the Bond Registrar and shall not be
reissued.
(3) Additional Notice. In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice
shall be given by the City as set out below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure
to give all or any portion of such further notice shall in any manner defeat the effectiveness of
a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as above prescribed. Each further notice of
redemption given hereunder shall contain the information required above for an official notice
of redemption plus (A) the CUSIP numbers of all Bonds being redeemed; (B) the date of issue of
the Bonds as originally issued; (C) the rate of interest borne by each Bond being redeemed;
(D) the series and maturity date of each Bond being redeemed; and (E) any other descriptive
information needed to identify accurately the Bonds being redeemed. Each further notice of
redemption may be sent at least 20 days before the redemption date to each party entitled to
receive notice pursuant to the applicable Continuing Disclosure Certificate and with such
additional information as the City shall deem appropriate, but such mailings shall not be a
condition precedent to the redemption of such Bonds.
(4) Amendment of Notice Provisions. The foregoing notice provisions of this
Section 5, including but not limited to the information to be included in redemption notices
and the persons designated to receive notices, may be amended by additions, deletions and
changes in order to maintain compliance with duly promulgated regulations and
recommendations regarding notices of redemption of municipal securities.
(d) Purchase of Bonds. The City reserves the right to purchase any or all of the
Bonds offered to it at any time at a price deemed reasonable by the Administrative Services

AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
Administrator plus accrued interest to the date of purchase.
Section 6. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be in substantially the form set forth in
Exhibit A, which is incorporated herein by this reference, with such changes thereto as may be
approved by the Designated Representative, consistent with the provisions of Section 12
hereof.
Section 7. Execution of Bonds. The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the City by
the facsimile or manual signature of the Mayor and shall be attested to by the facsimile or
manual signature of the City Clerk, and shall have the seal of the City impressed or a facsimile
thereof imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon.
In the event any officer who shall have signed or whose facsimile signatures appear on
any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer of the City before said Bonds shall have been
authenticated or delivered by the Bond Registrar or issued by the City, such Bonds may
nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued and, upon such authentication, delivery
and issuance, shall be as binding upon the City as though said person had not ceased to be
such officer. Any Bond may be signed and attested on behalf of the City by such persons who,
at the actual date of execution of such Bond shall be the proper officer of the City, although at
the original date of such Bond such persons were not such officers of the City.
Only such Bonds as shall bear thereon a Certificate of Authentication manually
executed by an authorized representative of the Bond Registrar shall be valid or obligatory for
any purpose or entitled to the benefits of this ordinance. Such Certificate of Authentication
shall be conclusive evidence that the Bonds so authenticated have been duly executed,
authenticated and delivered hereunder and are entitled to the benefits of this ordinance.

Section 8. Application of Bond Proceeds; Project Fund. The Administrative Services
Administrator is hereby authorized to create a fund or account (the "Project Fund"), and
subaccounts therein as necessary, for the purposes set forth in this section. A portion of the
proceeds of each series of Bonds, net of any Underwriter's discount and fees, shall be
deposited in the Project Fund in the amounts specified in the closing memorandum prepared
in connection with the issuance of such Bonds. Such proceeds shall be used to pay and/or
reimburse the City for the costs of the Improvements and, unless otherwise provided by the
City, to pay costs of issuance of such Bonds.
The Administrative Services Administrator shall invest money in the Project Fund and
the subaccounts contained therein in such obligations as may now or hereafter be permitted
by law to cities of the State and which will mature prior to the date on which such money shall
be needed, but only to the extent that the same are acquired, valued and disposed of at Fair
Market Value. Any remaining Bond proceeds (including interest earnings thereon) may be
used for other capital projects of the City or shall be transferred to the Debt Service Fund for
the allocable series of Bonds.
Section 9. Tax Covenants. The City will take all actions necessary to assure the
exclusion of interest on any Tax -Exempt Bonds from the gross income of the owners of such
Tax -Exempt Bonds to the same extent as such interest is permitted to be excluded from gross
income under the Code as in effect on the date of issuance of such Tax -Exempt Bonds,
including but not limited to the following:
(a) Private Activity Bond Limitation. The City will assure that the proceeds of the
Tax -Exempt Bonds are not so used as to cause the Tax -Exempt Bonds to satisfy the private
-19-
10018 00013ia08ep42ck
AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
business tests of Section 141(b) of the Code or the private loan financing test of Section 141(c)
of the Code.
(b) Limitations on Disposition of Improvements. The City will not sell or otherwise
transfer or dispose of (i) any personal property components of the Improvements other than in
the ordinary course of an established government program under Treasury Regulation 1.141-
2(d)(4) or (ii) any real property components of the Improvements, unless it has received an
opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such disposition will not adversely affect the
treatment of interest on the Tax -Exempt Bonds as excludable from gross income for federal
income tax purposes.
(c) Federal Guarantee Prohibition. The City will not take any action or permit or
suffer any action to be taken if the result of such action would be to cause any of the Tax -
Exempt Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code.
(d) Rebate Requirement. The City will take any and all actions necessary to assure
compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code, relating to the rebate of excess investment
earnings, if any, to the federal government, to the extent that such section is applicable to the
Tax -Exempt Bonds.
(e) No Arbitrage. The City will not take, or permit or suffer to be taken, any action
with respect to the proceeds of the Tax -Exempt Bonds which, if such action had been
reasonably expected to have been taken, or had been deliberately and intentionally taken, on
the date of issuance of the Tax -Exempt Bonds would have caused the Tax -Exempt Bonds to be
"arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
-20-
10018 00013ia08ep42ck
AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
(f) Registration Covenant. The City will maintain a system for recording the
ownership of each Tax -Exempt Bond that complies with the provisions of Section 149 of the
Code until all Tax -Exempt Bonds have been surrendered and canceled.
(g) Record Retention. The City will retain its records of all accounting and
monitoring it carries out with respect to the Tax -Exempt Bonds for at least three years after the
Tax -Exempt Bonds mature or are redeemed (whichever is earlier); however, if the Tax -Exempt
Bonds are redeemed and refunded, the City will retain its records of accounting and
monitoring at least three years after the earlier of the maturity or redemption of the
obligations that refunded the Tax -Exempt Bonds.
(h) Compliance with Federal Tax Certificate. The City will comply with the provisions
of the Federal Tax Certificate with respect to a series of Tax -Exempt Bonds, which are
incorporated herein as if fully set forth herein. The covenants of this Section will survive
payment in full or defeasance of the Tax -Exempt Bonds.
(i) Bank Qualification. In the Federal Tax Certificate executed in connection with
the issuance of each series of Tax -Exempt Bonds, the City may designate such Bonds as
"qualified tax-exempt obligations" under Section 265(b)(3) of the Code for investment by
financial institutions if the City does not reasonably expect to issue more than $10,000,000 of
qualified tax-exempt obligations in the calendar year in which such Tax -Exempt Bonds are
issued.
Section 10. Debt Service Fund and Provision for Tax Levy Payments. The City hereby
authorizes the creation of one or more funds, and accounts held therein, to be used for the
payment of debt service on each series of Bonds, designated as the "Limited Tax General
-21-
10018 00013ia08ep42ck
AGENDA ITEM #7. d)
Obligation Bond Debt Service Fund" or other such designation selected by the City (the "Debt
Service Fund"). No later than the date each payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds
becomes due, the City shall transmit sufficient funds, from the Debt Service Fund or from other
legally available sources, to the Bond Registrar for the payment of such principal or interest.
Money in the Debt Service Fund may be invested in legal investments for City funds, but only
to the extent that the same are acquired, valued and disposed of at Fair Market Value. Any
interest or profit from the investment of such money shall be deposited in the Debt Service
Fund.
The City hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees for as long as any of the Bonds are
outstanding and unpaid that each year it shall include in its budget and levy an ad valorem tax
upon all the property within the City subject to taxation in an amount that will be sufficient,
together with all other revenues and money of the City legally available for such purposes, to
pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same shall become due.
The City hereby irrevocably pledges that the annual tax provided for herein to be levied
for the payment of such principal and interest shall be within and as a part of the property tax
levy permitted to cities without a vote of the electorate, and that a sufficient portion of each
annual levy to be levied and collected by the City prior to the full payment of the principal of
and interest on the Bonds will be and is hereby irrevocably set aside, pledged and appropriated
for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The full faith, credit and
resources of the City are hereby irrevocably pledged for the annual levy and collection of such
taxes and for the prompt payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due.

Section 11. Defeasance. In the event that the City, in order to effect the payment,
retirement or redemption of any Bond, sets aside in the Debt Service Fund or in another
special account, cash or noncallable Government Obligations, or any combination of cash
and/or noncallable Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities that, together with the
known earned income therefrom, are sufficient to redeem or pay and retire such Bond in
accordance with its terms and to pay when due the interest and redemption premium, if any,
thereon, and such cash and/or noncallable Government Obligations are irrevocably set aside
and pledged for such purpose, then no further payments need be made into the Debt Service
Fund for the payment of the principal of and interest on such Bond. The owner of a Bond so
provided for shall cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security of this ordinance except
the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest from the Debt Service
Fund or such special account, and such Bond shall be deemed to be not outstanding under this

In Resolution 4337 (signed April 2, 2018) Council adopted multiple documents governing the city's 457(b)
deferred compensation program. The 457 Committee, whose members include staff from the City and the
Renton Regional Fire Authority (RRFA), at their December 2018 meeting, voted in favor of allowing members
to roll Roth contributions from prior employer plans into the Renton plan. This requires an amendment to one
of the TIAA plan documents that Council adopted as part of Resolution 4337.
The 457 Committee requests that Council approve this administrative change to the TIAA plan document. In
addition, a Resolution is attached to grant the 457 Committee authority to make administrative changes to the
plan documents, in the future, that do not impact the city's budget.
A. Resolution
Adopt Resolution that 1) approves an administrative change to the city's deferred compensation, 457(b) plan
document from TIAA, to allow members to rollover Roth contributions into the Renton 457(b) plan, and 2)
approves the authority of the city's 457 Committee to make administrative revisions to the deferred
compensation plan documents in the future, if the revisions do not impact the city's budget.

Metro, Pierce Transit, Sound Transit and others.
2. 100% vanpool and vanshare subsidies.

Products Agreement
ISSUE:
Should Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement with King
County Metro Transit for the purchase of ORCA Business Cards and ORCA Business
Passport Products?
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement with King County Metro
Transit for the purchase of ORCA Business Cards and ORCA Business Passport Products.
BACKGROUND:
In order to reduce congestion and improve air quality, Washington State passed a
Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Law in the early 1990s. The CTR law requires employers
with 100 or more employees arriving to work between the hours of 6:00 and 9:00 a.m.
to have transportation programs for their employees that encourage the use of
alternatives to single occupancy vehicles. Under the CTR law the City of Renton is
classified as a CTR affected employer.
During the past 20 years the City has entered into annual agreements with transit
agencies to purchase public transit passes in bulk at a reduced rate. These passes are
provided to each regular City employee as a core fundamental piece of the City's CTR
Program. This program is paid for out of the general fund.

The ORCA Business Passport offers unlimited rides on Sound Transit, King County Metro
Transit, Pierce Transit and others. It covers travel on buses, light rail and commuter rail.
In addition it features 100% subsidies for vanpool and vanshare participants of King
County Metro, Community, Kitsap and Pierce transit vehicles, as well as a Guaranteed
Ride Home Program (free emergency taxi service for employees).
The cost for the time period of March 1, 2019 to February 28, 2020 is $419.00 per
eligible employee. This is a significant savings over buying the passes through King
County Metro Transit outside of the ORCA Business Passport Program. If passes were
purchased in lesser quantities each equivalent pass could cost as much as $2,484.
Additionally these passes would not include other benefits of the ORCA Business
Passport Program, such as Guaranteed Ride Home or the 100% vanpool and vanshare
subsidies.
This agreement allows for the purchase of 298 passes for use by eligible City employees
for a total cost of $126,352.00. The number of passes being purchased in 2019 is an
increase from the 281 purchased in 2018.

provided in Attachment 1,. If additional cards are required, the Business Account may be required to pay the standard

ORCA Passport Agreement

AGENDA ITEM #7.
Business Account notifies the Lead Agency that it has not received the ordered cards, the Lead Agency will ship a
replacement order. If the Business Account subsequently receives the cards reported as missing, the Business
Account is responsible for returning them to the Lead Agency.
5.3 Storage and Risk of Loss. The Business Account is responsible for the storage, distribution and use of the
ORCA Business Cards issued to it. The Business Account bears the sole risk of any loss, damage, theft or
unauthorized use of one of its cards, whether such card is held in its inventory or has been distributed for use. The
Business Account is responsible for the cost of any use of its Business Cards until the effective date of a Card Block
that may be initiated as provided below.
5.4 Distance Based Transit Fare. The Business Account is responsible for communicating to Cardholders that
"distance based fares" are charged on some systems such as: Link light rail, and Sounder commuter rail systems. On
distance based fare modes, when the Cardholder "taps on," the ORCA system will record the trip to the last stop on the
line. When the Cardholder "taps off' at the end of the ride, ORCA will record the actual ride. The Business Account
then will be charged the correct fare for the actual ride taken. If the Cardholder fails to "tap off', then ORCA will record
a ride to the end of the line. The result of not "tapping off' is that the Business Account will be charged the largest fare
for the ride even if a shorter ride was taken.
5.5 Distribution of ORCA Business Cards. The Business Account is responsible for distributing its Business
Cards for use by its Eligible Business Cardholders. The Business Account remains the owner of all Business Cards it
distributes but a cardholder may also purchase and load individual ORCA products on a Business Card and individually
register the card. To enable Cardholders to register Business Cards as provided in Section 6 below, the Business
Account may not register, or allow anyone other than the Cardholder to register, the Business Cards that are issued
under this Agreement.
The Business Account shall require that the Cardholder, as a condition of receiving a Business Card, is informed of the
Cardholder Rules of Use, incorporated in this Agreement as Attachment 4 ORCA Business Cardholder Rules of
Use, through your business' standard means of communicating policies.
The Business Account understands and agrees that it is solely responsible for implementation and enforcement of the
Cardholder Rules of Use.
5.6 Proof of payment. The Business Account is responsible for notifying Cardholders that proof of payment must
be made by tapping the ORCA Card on the card reader in the manner required by each Agency; otherwise, the
Cardholder may be subject to a fine if the ORCA Card is not tapped, and the Cardholder will be personally responsible
for any fines that may be imposed.
5.7 Business Account Access to Personally Identifying Information. If an individual Cardholder opts to register
one of the Business Cards issued to the Business Account, any personally identifying information provided to the
ORCA System (e.g. name, address, telephone number, and credit card number) will not be accessible by the Business
Account. If the Business Account collects any personally identifying information about individuals to whom it has
distributed Business Cards, the Business Account is solely responsible for its collection, use, storage and disclosure of
such information.
5.8 Card Blocks. In the event a Business Card is determined to be lost or stolen or if a Cardholder is determined
by the Business Account to be no longer eligible to use the card, the Business Account may initiate a Card Block via
the Business Account Website to invalidate the subject Business Card. The Lead Agency may also initiate a Card
Block or a Product Block as to any of the Business Account's Business Cards at the request of the Business Account,
or at the sole discretion of the Lead Agency in accordance with Section 4.4, or if it is suspected that a card has been
altered, duplicated, counterfeited, stolen or used by an ineligible Cardholder. Once initiated, a Card Block must be
processed in the ORCA system and downloaded to all reader devices throughout the region. Until that occurs, there is
ORCA Passport Agreement
City of Renton - BAID: 2480 Page 4 of 21
March 1, 2019 - February 29, 2020
AGENDA ITEM #7.
the potential that the Business Passport Product and any E-purse value or other ORCA Products on the subject card
will continue to be used. The Business Account, not the Agencies, remains responsible for all transactions, and any
loss or costs arising there from, for forty-eight (48) hours after the Card Block was initiated.
5.9 Restoration of Value After Card Block. Following a Card Block, the Business Account may request the Lead
Agency to restore value on a replacement of the blocked Business Card. An E-purse on a blocked card will be restored
on the replacement card in approximately ten (10) calendar days after the replacement card is issued. The E-purse
amount that remained on the lost or stolen card, forty-eight (48) hours after the Card Block was initiated in the ORCA
system, will be restored to the replacement card via a remote revalue function. An E-purse on a blocked card will be
restored on the replacement card on the eighth day after the card has been issued. The card must then be tapped to
activate the E-purse value.
5.10 Card Replacement. The Business Account is responsible for ordering and paying for any new cards needed
to replace Business Cards that for any reason cease to be available or suitable for use by the Cardholders under the
program of the Business Account, including but not limited to, if the unavailability or unsuitability is caused by damage,
abuse, loss, theft, Card Block, and end of useful life. Provided, however, and notwithstanding the exclusion of
warranties in Section 14, if a Business Card malfunctions within twelve (12) months after it was delivered to the
Business Account, it shall be replaced by the Lead Agency without additional charge to the Business Account if the
malfunction was caused by a defect in design, material or workmanship and was not caused by misuse, an intentional
act, negligence or damage, reasonable wear and tear excepted. The Business Account understands and agrees that to
avoid the disruption and inconvenience caused by sporadic failures as its cards are used, it must plan for replacement
of its Business Cards on a regular basis. As a condition of continuing under the Business Passport program, the
Business Account agrees that: (a) it will retire all of its ORCA Business Cards at sometime within four years after they
are issued by the Lead Agency to the Business Account; and (b) purchase replacement Business Cards at the
then -applicable rate.
6.0 CARDHOLDER USE OF ORCA BUSINESS CARDS
Cardholder Privileges. The Business Account understands and agrees that, although it remains the owner of ORCA
Business Cards after distribution, the Cardholder has the following privileges in connection with the use of an ORCA
Business Card.
6.1 The Cardholder may present an ORCA Business Card, loaded with a valid, applicable Business Passport or
Business Choice Product, to an ORCA fare transaction processor as proof of payment of all or a portion of a required
fare on a regular transportation service operated by one or more of the Agencies. (Provided, however, an ORCA
Product that is not sufficient to fully pay a fare will not be accepted as partial payment by the Washington State
Ferries.) In all cases, a Cardholder will be required to make other payment to the extent a fare is not covered by an
ORCA Product.
6.2 The Cardholder may individually purchase ORCA Products and load them on the Business Card in addition to
any ORCA Product loaded by the Business Account. Individual ORCA Products may be used to pay all or a portion of
a required fare on a transportation service not covered by a Business Passport Product or Business Choice Product.
(Provided, however, an ORCA Product that is not sufficient to fully pay a fare will not be accepted as partial payment
by the Washington State Ferries.) In all cases, a Cardholder will be required to make other payment to the extent a fare
is not covered by an ORCA Product.
6.3 The Cardholder may register his/her name and other contact information with the ORCA System and link such
personal information to the serial number of the Business Card provided to him/her. Such registration does not give the
Cardholder any ownership rights in the card but does give the Cardholder the right to access the ORCA Cardholder
Website to view the card's transaction history and current stored value, to modify travel zone preferences, and to add
retail products.

6.4 The Cardholder's personally identifying information is generally exempt from disclosure under the Washington
Public Records Act (Chapter 42.56 RCW) as more specifically outlined in RCW 42.56.330(5).
7.0 NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS
Except as otherwise provided herein or in Section 13.2, the Business Account understands and agrees that its
purchases of Business Cards, and Business Passport Products and Business Choice Products purchased for such
cards, are final and it is not entitled to any refunds. Provided, however, the Business Account may request a refund of
the E-purse value remaining on a Business Card if the card is surrendered by the Business Account to the Lead
Agency. Upon surrender of the subject Business Card, the Lead Agency shall initiate a Card Block and the refund
processed approximately ten (10) calendar days after the Card Block was initiated. The E-purse amount refunded will
be that which remained on the surrendered card forty-eight (48) hours after the Card Block was initiated in the ORCA
system. A processing fee of ten dollars ($10) may be payable by the Business Account to the Lead Agency for each
refund that is processed, regardless of E-purse value or number of cards refunded. The Business Account, not the
Lead Agency, is responsible for the refunding of such E-purse value, if any, to the individual Cardholder to whom the
Business Card had been distributed.
8.0 BUSINESS ACCOUNT WEBSITE
8.1 The Business Account Website is the primary means by which the Business Account shall purchase ORCA
Business Cards, Business Passport and Business Choice Products, manage its Business Cards and obtain information
about the use of said cards. As a condition of participation in the Business Passport program, the Business Account
agrees that it will use the Business Account Website when it is available and that each access and use of said website
shall be subject to the Terms of Use and Privacy Statement that are in effect and posted on the Business Account
Website at the time of such access and use.
8.2 The Business Account understands and agrees that uninterrupted access to and use of the Business Account
Website is not guaranteed and agrees that it will contact its representative at the Lead Agency by email or telephone if
the website is not available.
8.3 At the time the Business Account enters into the ORCA program, the Lead Agency will provide a single
password to the Business Account's Primary Contact, as specified in Attachment 2, to enable user access to the
Business Account's secured area of the Business Account Website. The Business Account is required to change the
temporary password to one of its own creation. The Business Account shall be solely responsible for the number and
identity of those employees with whom the Business Account's password is shared. The Business Account is also
solely responsible for complying with the security standards specified in Attachment 5, ORCA Business Account
Security Standards, which is incorporated in this Agreement by this reference.
9.0 INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE AGENCIES AND THE ORCA SYSTEM
9.1 The Business Account understands and agrees that the data, reports or any information provided to it via the
Business Account Website or otherwise, is and remains the sole property of the Agencies and nothing shall be
construed as a transfer or grant of any copyright or other property interest in such data, reports or information. The
Agencies hereby grant to the Business Account a non-exclusive license to use any data, reports or information
provided by the Agencies, via the Business Account Website or otherwise, for any lawful purpose related to the
administration of the transportation benefits program of the Business Account.
9.2 The ORCA System will record data each time an ORCA Business Card is presented to an ORCA device for fare
payment and to load a product. Such transaction data includes, but is not limited to, the date, time, and location (or
route) of the transaction. The Business Account may routinely access such transaction data related to its Business
Cards to the extent provided via the Business Account Website. Said website and its reports do not provide the
Business Account Business Card transaction data linked to card serial numbers.
ORCA Passport Agreement

March 1, 2019 - February 29, 2020
AGENDA ITEM #7. 0
For the purpose of preventing fraud, the Primary Contact Person of the Business Account may submit a written request
to the Lead Agency for transaction data related to a specific card number or for a card number linked to a specific
transaction. Fraud is defined as intentional deception or misrepresentation by a person with knowledge that it will result
in an unauthorized benefit to him, her, or some other person. The submittal is not intended to be used to request data
for multiple cards or all cards managed by the Business Account.
The written request shall include the following:
9.2.1 Card number or the date, time and other known details about the specific transaction for which a card
serial number is being requested;
9.2.2 Detailed statement as to why the information is germane to the prevention of fraud; and
9.2.3 The signature of the Primary Contact Person.
If the Lead Agency determines that the subject transaction(s) is linked to a Business Card issued to the Business
Account, the Lead Agency will provide the Business Account with the card serial number linked to the requested
transaction(s). The Business Account agrees that it will use such card serial number information only for purposes of
enforcing the Rules of Use, as provided to the Cardholder. The Business Account must maintain its own records if it
wishes to identify the card serial number issued to an individual.
10.0 PUBLIC RECORDS
The Business Account understands and agrees that all records related to its participation in the ORCA System are
public records under the Washington Public Records Act (Chapter 42.56 RCW) ("Act"), including but not limited to: (a)
this Agreement and the sales activity hereunder; (b) the orders, communications, and any other information provided
by the Business Account to the Lead Agency, the other Agencies or the ORCA System, whether provided via this
website or otherwise and whether provided in hard copy or electronic form; (c) any communications, responses,
requests, reports or information of any kind provided to the Business Account from the Lead Agency, the
other Agencies or the ORCA System; and (d) all data, reports and information of any kind related to the loading of
products on, and the use of, the Business Cards issued to the Business Account. As public records, these records will
be made available for public inspection and copying upon request, unless the Lead Agency determines they are
exempt from disclosure.
11.0 INDIVIDUAL USE OF BUSINESS CARD AFTER LEAVING A BUSINESS ACCOUNT
The Business Account is encouraged to collect Business Cards from Cardholders who are no longer eligible for the
Business Account's transportation benefits program. In any case, the Business Account is solely responsible for
initiating a Card Block or Product Block in accordance with this Agreement to prevent any continued use of, and
financial liability for, a card that had been distributed to a person who is no longer eligible.
12.0 ORCA SERVICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE
The Agencies seek to continually improve and enhance the ORCA Services. With thousands of employers, schools,
and other entities entering into business account agreements at varying dates in the year, the Agencies are unable to
guarantee to each business account that the ORCA Services will not change during the term of its agreement. The
Business Account understands and agrees that one or more ORCA Services may be changed, suspended or
terminated from time to time without prior notice to, or agreement by, the Business Account, including but not limited to
changes in the look, feel, content and functions of the Business Account Website. If the Business Account is
dissatisfied with a change in the ORCA Services, however, it may terminate this Agreement for its convenience in
accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2.
13.0 TERMINATION
ORCA Passport Agreement
City of Renton - BAID: 2480 Page 7 of 21
March 1, 2019 - February 29, 2020
AGENDA ITEM #7. 0
13.1 The Lead Agency may at any time terminate this Agreement if the Business Account fails to make timely and
effective payment of all amounts due, or otherwise materially breaches the Agreement, or acts in manner indicating
that it intends to not comply, or is unable to comply, with the Agreement. To effect such a termination for cause, the
Lead Agency shall send email notice to the last known email address for the last known primary contact person of the
Business Account describing the manner in which the Business Account is in default and the effective date of
termination. If the basis for termination is a failure to perform that can be cured, the termination shall not take effect so
long as the Business Account cures the default within ten (10) calendar days of the sending of the email notice. Upon
the effective date of such termination, the Lead Agency may immediately terminate the website access privileges of the
Business Account, block the Business Cards issued to the Business Account and decline to accept and fulfill any
pending or new orders from the Business Account. In the event of such a termination for cause, the Business Account
shall not be entitled to any refund of any amounts paid.
13.2 Either the Business Account or the Lead Agency may terminate the Agreement without cause and for its own
convenience by sending the other party written or email notice at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date
of the termination. Upon receipt of a notice of termination for convenience from the Business Account, the Lead
Agency may, in its sole discretion, waive the advance notice period and immediately terminate the website access
privileges of the Business Account, initiate a Card Block on the Business Cards issued to the Business Account, and
decline to accept and fulfill any pending or new orders from the Business Account. In the event of such a termination
for convenience and not cause, the amounts due under this Agreement shall be calculated by the Lead Agency. (The
amounts due for the ORCA Passport Product and any optional products listed in Attachment 1 shall be the annual
amounts due prorated for the number of months during which the Passport Product and optional products were valid
for at least one day.) If the Business Account has not paid in full all of the amounts due under this Agreement as of the
termination date, the Business Account shall immediately pay the remaining amount due. If the Business Account has
paid more than all of the amounts due under this Agreement as of the termination date, the Business Account shall be
entitled to a refund of the excess it has paid.
13.3 Notwithstanding any termination of the Agreement, the Business Account shall remain liable to satisfy and
comply with all of its obligations under this Agreement and at law with regard to, or arising out of, any orders submitted
or any of its acts or omissions occurring prior to the effective date of the termination, including but not limited to paying
all amounts due or incurred prior to the effective date of the termination and any fees, charges, collection costs or other
costs arising from a failure to make timely and effective payment.

rendered unable to perform, or comply with such obligations as a direct or indirect result of a force majeure event, or
any other circumstance not within such party's control, including, but not limited to, acts of nature, acts of civil or

acknowledges and agrees that it has not relied on any representations or statements by the Agencies and will not rely
on them to provide any legal, accounting, tax or other advice with regard to the Business Account's provision of
compensation, benefits or services to employees or others (e.g. including, but not limited to, transportation fringe
benefits) and any reporting, withholding or other obligations related thereto.

ORCA BUSINESS CARDHOLDER RULES OF USE
As a Business Account Cardholder, I agree to the following:
1. I understand that the ORCA Business Card is owned by the employer that provided it to me and it has been
provided to me for my personal use only. I agree that I will not sell or transfer my assigned ORCA Card to another
person. If I violate these terms of use, my ORCA Card may be blocked from further use.
2. 1 will keep my assigned ORCA Business Card secure and in good condition, and I will immediately report a lost,
stolen, or damaged ORCA Business Card to my company's Transportation Coordinator. I understand an ORCA
Business Card will be replaced at the fee charged by my company.
3. 1 will return my assigned ORCA Business Card upon request or when I leave my employment or otherwise do not
meet the eligibility requirements of my company. If I do not return my ORCA Business
Card, I understand that it may be blocked for further use.
4. 1 understand that my ORCA Business Card is valid for the following provided by the listed transportation Agencies.
a. 100% of fares on regularly scheduled transportation service on Community Transit, Everett Transit, Kitsap
Transit and Kitsap Ferries, King County Water Taxi, Metro Transit, Pierce Transit, Sound Transit, and Seattle
Streetcar.
b. 100% of vanpool and vanshare fares on vanpool services provided by Community Transit, Kitsap Transit,
Metro Transit, and Pierce Transit.
5. 1 understand and will comply with policies of my employer or other institution that provided my ORCA Business
Card.
6. 1 understand that the ORCA Business Card is not valid for fare payment on transportation services not specified in
Section 4 and I am responsible for paying any additional fares required for services not covered, or not fully covered,
by my assigned ORCA Business Card.
7. 1 understand that any additional ORCA Products I load onto my assigned ORCA Card will become the property of
the company that owns my ORCA Business Card and the refund, if any, of such products will be made by the company
according to its refund policy.
8. 1 understand in the event any ORCA Products I load onto my assigned ORCA Card must be replaced, I am
responsible for any fares required during the replacement period.
9. 1 understand the ORCA system will record data each time I use my assigned ORCA Business Card. Data will
include the date, time and location of the card when it is presented. I understand this data is owned by the transit
Agencies and is accessible to the company that owns my ORCA Business Card.
10. 1 understand that the ORCA Card must be "tapped" on a card reader to show proof of fare payment or issuance of
a valid fare. Merely showing the ORCA Card on a bus, train, ferry or light rail vehicle does not constitute proof of fare
payment or issuance of a valid fare. I will be subject to a fine if the ORCA Card is not "tapped," and I understand I will
be personally responsible for any fines that may be imposed.
11. 1 understand that for the correct fare to be recorded, I must "tap" off on a card reader when exiting some transit
systems. For example, I must "tap" off when exiting from a Sounder train or Link light rail.

Adoption of a Title VI Plan
Refer to Transportation (Aviation) Committee

Heather Gregersen, Program Development Coordinator

The City must comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and various non-discrimination laws and
regulations in order to receive federal financial assistance. The Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT) administers the state's Title VI Plan and is required to obtain assurances from sub
recipients of their compliance.
Each local agency that receives federal funds through WSDOT is required to establish a Title VI Plan to ensure
that the provision of benefits and services, and transportation decision making are conducted in a non-
discriminatory manner. This Title VI Plan includes a requirement for local agencies to submit a plan specifying
how it will implement their Title VI responsibilities. Agencies serving a population of 100,000 or more are
required to have a Title VI Plan. Agencies serving a population less than 100,000 are able to use an
abbreviated Title VI Plan Non-discrimination Agreement. The City's current population has exceeded the
100,000 person threshold and an updated plan document is required to be adopted and submitted to WSDOT.
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on race, color and national origin in the
provision of benefits and services receiving federal financial assistance. The Civil Rights Restoration Act of
1987 clarified the broad institution -wide application of Title VI and other non-discrimination statues. The term
"program or activity' means all of the operations of federal aid recipients, sub recipients and contractors,
regardless of whether or not such programs and activities are federally funded. The Local Agency Guidelines
Manual require local agencies to address environmental justice and limited English proficiency in their Title VI
Plan.

I. Policy Statement, Authorities and Citations
A. Policy of Nondiscrimination
The City of Renton assures that no person shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin, or
sex as provided by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Civil Rights Restoration Act
of 1987 (P.L. 100.259) be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be
otherwise subjected to discrimination under any City sponsored program or activity. The City of
Renton further assures every effort will be made to ensure nondiscrimination in all of its
programs and activities, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not.
In the event the City of Renton distributes Federal aid funds to another entity, the City will
include Title VI language in all written agreements and will monitor for compliance.
Title VI compliance is a condition of receipt for Federal funds. Assurance of compliance,
therefore, falls under the proper authority of the Mayor pursuant to its budgetary authority and
responsibility. The Mayor, Public Works Administrator and Title VI Coordinator are authorized
to ensure compliance with provisions of this policy and with the law, including the requirements
of 23 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 200 and 49 CFR 21.

B. Authorities
Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act provides that no person in the United States shall on the
grounds of race, color, national origin, or sex be excluded from participation in, be denied the
benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving
Federal financial assistance.
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 broadened the scope of Title VI coverage by
expanding the definition of terms "programs or activities" to include all programs or activities of
Federal Aid recipients, sub -recipients, and contractors, whether such programs and activities are
Federally assisted or not (Public Law 100-259 [S. 557] March 22, 1988).
City of Renton Title VI Plan 3
AGENDA ITEM #7. g)
Limited English Proficiency — Executive Order 13166 clarifies that individuals with Limited
English Proficiency (LEP) are protected under the title VI nondiscrimination provisions related
to national origin, and requires Federal Aid recipients, sub -recipients and contractors to take
reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to programs, services and entities. These
reasonable steps may include providing information, services and materials in languages other
than English.
Environmental Justice — Executive Order 12898 clarifies that Title VI requires Federal aid
recipients, sub -recipients and contractors to conduct an equity assessment to ensure full and fair
participation of minority and low-income communities and avoid disproportionately high or
adverse human and environmental impacts from transportation projects.
This Plan is created in coordination with the Washington State Transportation in its capacity of
administrating the distribution of Federal Highway Administration dollars. The Policy is
intended to apply primarily to programs funded by such dollars. Other departments, sections,
and divisions of the City of Renton that receive non -highway federal funding may be bound to
and/or follow different policies and procedures in order to comply with the above authorities and
applicable requirements of the agencies responsible for distributing such federal funding.

The City of Renton will seek the cooperation of the consultant, contractor or other sub -recipient
in correcting deficiencies found during periodic reviews. The City will provide technical
assistance and guidance, upon request, to support voluntary compliance by the sub -recipient.
When conducting Title VI compliance reviews, the City will reduce to writing any recommended
remedial action agreed upon by the Transportation Division and sub -recipient, and provide a
copy of the letter within a period not to exceed 45 days.
Sub -recipients placed in a deficiency status will be given a reasonable time, not to exceed 90
days after receipt of the deficiency letter, to voluntarily correct deficiencies. When a sub -
recipient fails or refuses to voluntarily comply with requirements within the allotted time frame,
the City of Renton will submit to WSDOT and FHWA copies of the case file and a
recommendation that the sub -recipient be found in noncompliance.
A follow-up review will be conducted within 180 days of the initial review to ascertain if the
sub -recipient has complied with the Title VI Program requirements in correcting deficiencies
previously identified. If the sub -recipient refuses to comply, the City of Renton and WSDOT
may, with FHWA's concurrence, initiate sanctions per 49 CFR 21.

Chapter 28
28.1 General Discussion
Title VI Program
Local agencies, as recipients of Federal financial assistance, are required to comply
with various nondiscrimination laws and regulations, including Title VI of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964.
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on race,
color, and national origin in the provision of benefits and services. Additional
nondiscrimination laws include the Federal -aid Highway Act of 1973, which added
sex (gender) as a protected class; and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and
the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis
of disability.
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 clarified the broad institution -wide
application of Title VI and other nondiscrimination statutes. The term "program or
activity" means all of the operations of Federal -aid recipients, subrecipients, and
contractors, whether such programs and activities are federally funded or not.
Similar to WSDOT, local agencies are expected to comply with the U.S. Department
of Transportation's (USDOT) Title VI regulations contained in 49 CFR Part 21, and
the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) regulations contained in 23 CFR
200. In addition, local agencies are expected to address Environmental Justice and
Limited English Proficiency consistent with the guidance provided by WSDOT. If
local agencies receive Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funds, they should refer to
FTA's Title VI Circular C4202.IB.
These federal regulations require WSDOT to obtain assurances from their subrecipients
that they agree to maintain records and submit reports on its programs and activities;
that the subrecipient will comply with Title VI, and that the assurances provide a right
to enforcement. Each local agency that receives Federal funds through WSDOT is
required to establish a Title VI Program to ensure that the provision of benefits and
services, and transportation decision -making are conducted in a nondiscriminatory
manner. This Title VI Program includes a requirement for local agencies to submit a
plan specifying how it will implement their Title VI responsibilities.
Agencies serving a population of 100,000 or more are required to have a Title VI Plan.
Agencies serving a population less than 100,000 may use an abbreviated Title VI Plan,
a Nondiscrimination Agreement.
28.2 Title VI Plan Development
A Title VI Plan is a legal document that imposes individual legal liabilities to the
signatory agency that are not transferable. Each local agency must develop a Title
VI compliance document that reflects its individual transportation program structure.
WSDOT will provide each local agency the technical support it needs to develop
a Title VI Plan, or a Title VI Nondiscrimination Agreement, for agencies with
populations of less than 100,000.
WSDOT Local Agency Guidelines M 36-63.29 Page 28-1
October 2015
Title VI Program a nENDA Yrn8ff7, g�
1. Plan Scope — The Title VI Plan describes how recipients of federal financial
assistance will develop and implement their Title VI Program.
2. Plan Format — A specific format is not prescribed. Sample formats are contained
in Appendix 28.71 and 28.72.
Appendix 28.71 has an example Title VI Plan for large agencies serving a
population of 100,000 or more. Large local agencies should use this example
to prepare their plan that is to contain the categories listed in item C below
(Key Points to Consider in Developing Plan).
Appendix 28.72 has a boilerplate for small agencies serving a population
of less than 100,000 to use in developing their Abbreviated Title VI Plan/
Nondiscrimination Agreement.
If there are questions on these examples, please contact your Region Local
Programs Engineer.
Larger agencies (populations greater than 100,000) having a Title VI Plan already
approved for a different federally funded program, have the option to submit the
existing Title VI Plan for approval or create a new one. Agencies can submit their

28.3 Reporting Requirements
Local agencies are to provide the following reports and/or data to WSDOT related to
their transportation program:
Annual Title VI Update and Accomplishment Report
All agencies with approved Title VI Plans or Nondiscrimination Agreements are
to annually prepare a report of their Title VI Program implementation compliance
activities. This report is due one year from the date of approval of the Title VI plan and
then annually on that same date. This is to describe the transportation activities and any
changes that occurred during the year, as well as planned efforts (goals) for the coming
year. This Annual Title VI Update and Accomplishment Report is to be completed by
each agency and forwarded to the Region Local Programs Engineer, who will forward
it to Local Programs for transmittal to WSDOT's OEO for review and approval.
If there has been a change in the agency's CEO, an updated Assurances document
is required to be submitted with the Update report.
Examples of Annual Reports are outlined in Appendix 28.73 for agencies over 100,000
population and Appendix 28.74 for agencies with population under 100,000.
Revisions to the Local Agency's Title VI Plan or Nondiscrimination Agreement
The Plan is to contain current information on names of staff and any other needed
revisions. Agencies must submit substantial revisions to their Title VI Plan or
Nondiscrimination Agreement to the Region Local Programs Engineer for transmittal
to Local Programs for submittal to WSDOT's OEO as soon as they occur for review
and approval. Substantial revisions may be the filing of the agency's new CEO
signature, administrative changes in the agency's Title VI Program administrative
structure and staffing, or changes to the plan's complaint procedures, etc.
Local agencies only need to submit a revised Title VI document when program
changes such as the ones described above take place.

28.4 Title VI Complaint Investigations
The local agency is responsible for investigating all Title VI discrimination complaints
occurring within the federal aid transportation program or its activities, unless the
complaint filed is against the local agency. Complaints naming a local agency as a
respondent shall be forwarded to the Region Local Programs Engineer, who will in
turn forward it to Local Programs. WSDOT's OEO will investigate these complaints.
Each local agency's Title VI Plan will have External Complaint Procedures to assist
them in conducting a timely, fair and impartial investigation.
All Title VI investigations are to be completed within 60 days of acceptance of
a complaint.
A Log of Complaints must be maintained by each agency, and submitted annually as
part of the agency's Title VI Annual Update. The Log of Complaints must contain the
following information for each complaint filed:
• The name and address of the person filing the complaint.
• The date of the complaint.
• The basis of the complaint.
• The disposition of the complaint.
• The status of the complaint.
A Log of Complaints is shown in Appendix 28.75.
Only qualified, well -trained investigators should conduct these investigations.
No agency is allowed to investigate a complaint against itself.
All findings from state or local investigations are preliminary and subject to the
concurrence of FHWA Headquarters Civil Rights (HCR). FHWA HRC will render
final decisions in all cases including those investigated by WSDOT. There are no
administrative appeal forums in Title VI complaints. Once FHWA HCR issues its final
agency decision (FAD), a complainant in disagreement with such determination may
file an appeal with the appropriate US District Court.
28.5 Title VI Compliance Reviews
WSDOT/FHWA will conduct periodic reviews of compliance with Federal Title VI
regulations as follows:
1. Compliance Review — The WSDOT Title VI Coordinator will notify Local
Programs and work through the Region Local Programs Engineers to make
arrangements to conduct periodic compliance reviews of local agencies having
approved Title VI Plans/Nondiscrimination Agreements. The compliance
review will focus on how effectively the local agency has implemented Title VI.
Documentation is gathered and individuals with Title VI responsibilities are
interviewed as part of the review process. The local agency will be notified
in writing of the scheduled date and the documents that will be required for the on -
site review.
Page 28-4 WSDOT Local Agency Guidelines M 36-63.29
October 2015
Chapter 28 d GEN-IIM 7. g)
2. Local Agency Found in Compliance — If no deficiencies are found during the
on -site review, the local agency will be informed at the conclusion of the review,
followed by a written notice of compliance.
3. Local Agency Found in Noncompliance — If deficiencies are identified during the
review, the local agency will be apprised of them at the conclusion of the review,
followed by written notice, and given 90 days to correct them. After an agency
corrects deficiencies, it will be notified in writing that it is in compliance.
If a local agency does not correct Title VI Program deficiencies identified by
WSDOT or FHWA, it may be subject to sanctions including the suspension of
FHWA funding.
4. Local Agency Responsibilities — Local agencies administering federal aid
contracts are required to conduct on -site compliance reviews of prime contractors
and subcontractors. Agencies needing assistance in conducting on -site reviews
should contact their Region Local Programs Engineer.
28.6 Other Nondiscrimination Statutes Related to Title VI
Limited English Proficiency — LEP (Executive Order 13166) — As noted above,
one of the bases covered under Title VI is national origin. One type of national
origin discrimination is discrimination based on a person's inability to speak, read,
write, or understand English. The federal government and those receiving federal
financial assistance (recipients, subrecipients, contractors) must take reasonable
steps to ensure that LEP persons have meaningful access to the programs, services,
and information those entities provide. This may require providing written and/or
oral communications in a language other than English. More information regarding
LEP responsibilities can be found at www.lep.gov/recipbroch.html and at www.usdoj.
gov/crt/cor/lep/dotlep.htm.

I. Policy Statement, Authorities, and Citations
Page 2
A. Policy of Nondiscrimination —
Agency assures that no person shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin,
or sex as provided by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Civil Rights
Restoration Act of 1987 (P.L. 100.259) be excluded from participation in, be denied
the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any Agency
sponsored program or activity.
Agency further assures every effort will be made to ensure non-discrimination
in all of its programs and activities, whether those programs and activities are
federally funded or not.
In the event Agency distributes
federal aid funds to another entity,
Agency will include Title VI language in all written agreements and will monitor
for compliance.
Title VI compliance is a condition of receipt for federal funds. Assurance of
compliance, therefore, falls under the proper authority of the Board of Agency
Commissioners pursuant to its budgetary authority and responsibility. The Agency
Administrator and Title VI Coordinator are authorized to ensure compliance with
provisions of this policy and with the law, including the requirements of 23 Code
of Federal Regulation (CFR) 200 and 49 CFR 21.
Agency Administrator Date
B. Authorities — Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act provides that no person in the
United States shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin, or sex be excluded
from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to
discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 broadened the scope of Title VI coverage
by expanding the definition of terms "programs or activities" to include all
programs or activities of federal aid recipients, subrecipients, and contractors,
whether such programs and activities are federally assisted or not (Public Law 100-
259 [S. 557] March 22, 1988).

VI. Subrecipient Review and Remedial Action Procedures
February 2018
A. Title VI Review of Subrecipients of Federal Aid Highway Funds — Public
Works Specialists and the Coordinator will assist WSDOT to periodically conduct
Title VI compliance reviews. Title VI Specialists and Public Works staff will
review select recipients of federal aid highway or other federal funds, to ensure
adherence to Title VI requirements (see Section VII). The Coordinator and
Specialists will work cooperatively to periodically confirm operational guidelines
provided to consultants, contractors, and subrecipients, including Title VI language,
provisions, and related requirements, as applicable.
B. Post -Grant Reviews — The Coordinator will collaborate with Specialists and
Public Works staff to conduct periodic post grant reviews of select recipients
of federal highway funds or other federal funds, for roads, sidewalks, bridges,
municipal construction, etc. to ensure adherence to Title VI requirements
(see Section VII). Appropriate staff will periodically confirm that operational
guidelines provided to consultants, contractors and subrecipients include
Title VI language and provisions and related requirements, where applicable.
C. Remedial Action — When irregularities occur in the administration
of federal aid highway programs at either the Agency or subrecipient
levels, corrective action will be taken to resolve identified Title VI issues.
Agency will seek the cooperation
of the consultant, contractor or other subrecipient in correcting deficiencies found
during periodic reviews. Agency
will provide technical assistance and guidance, upon request, to support voluntarily
compliance by the subrecipient. When conducting Title VI compliance reviews, the
Agency will reduce to writing any recommended remedial action agreed upon by
the Agency and subrecipient, and provide a copy of the letter within a period not to
exceed 45 days.
Subrecipients placed in a deficiency status will be given a reasonable
time, not to exceed 90 days after receipt of the deficiency letter, to
voluntarily correct deficiencies. When a subrecipient fails or refuses to
voluntarily comply with requirements within the allotted time frame,
Agency will submit to WSDOT
and FHWA copies of the case file and a recommendation that the subrecipient be
found in noncompliance.
A follow-up review will be conducted within 180 days of the initial review to
ascertain if the subrecipient has complied with the Title VI Program requirements
in correcting deficiencies previously identified. If the subrecipient refuses to
comply, Agency and WSDOT
may, with FHWNs concurrence, initiate sanctions per 49 CFR 21.

B. Authorities
Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act provides that no person in the United States shall on the
grounds of race, color, national origin, or sex be excluded from participation in, be denied the
benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving
Federal financial assistance.
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 broadened the scope of Title VI coverage by
expanding the definition of terms "programs or activities" to include all programs or activities of
Federal Aid recipients, sub -recipients, and contractors, whether such programs and activities are
Federally assisted or not (Public Law 100-259 [S. 557] March 22, 1988).

AGENDA ITEM #7. g)
Limited English Proficiency — Executive Order 13166 clarifies that individuals with Limited
English Proficiency (LEP) are protected under the title VI nondiscrimination provisions related
to national origin, and requires Federal Aid recipients, sub -recipients and contractors to take
reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to programs, services and entities. These
reasonable steps may include providing information, services and materials in languages other
than English.
Environmental Justice — Executive Order 12898 clarifies that Title VI requires Federal aid
recipients, sub -recipients and contractors to conduct an equity assessment to ensure full and fair
participation of minority and low-income communities and avoid disproportionately high or
adverse human and environmental impacts from transportation projects.
This Plan is created in coordination with the Washington State Transportation in its capacity of
administrating the distribution of Federal Highway Administration dollars. The Policy is
intended to apply primarily to programs funded by such dollars. Other departments, sections,
and divisions of the City of Renton that receive non -highway federal funding may be bound to
and/or follow different policies and procedures in order to comply with the above authorities and
applicable requirements of the agencies responsible for distributing such federal funding.

SUBJECT/TITLE: Project Acceptance: Sunset Lane NE Improvements Project; CAG-16-

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Council Concur
DEPARTMENT: Transportation Systems Division
STAFF CONTACT: Keith Woolley, Civil Engineer
EXT.: 7318
The initial contract with Road Construction Northwest was for $4,704,215. Change orders increased the final
amount 12% to $5,270,424. The total project budget was $7,535,416 and the final contract amount falls
within the project budget. The project budget for the construction phase was $4,821,549 of City funds.
This project constructed new roadway, raised intersections, paving, curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lighting,
landscaping, storm drainage, franchise utility infrastructure and infrastructure for the city's stormwater,
sanitary sewer and water utilities.
The project started August 15, 2016 and was completed June 22, 2018. A total of 23 change orders were
issued during the project. Change Order No. 8 alone accounted for 61% of the project increase, as it
compensated the contractor $347,509.67 for delays due to a conflict with Puget Sound Energy (PSE)
infrastructure. However PSE reimbursed the City for 92% of this delay change order. Taking into account this
reimbursement by PSE, the overall increase in the project amount was 5.2%. The remaining change orders
were due to minor revisions to all areas of work in the scope of the project.
The project is completed and acceptance by Council is requested.

CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
The City of Renton manages over 30 miles of regional and local
trails and bicycle facilities. Most residents walk or bike in Renton in
their neighborhoods. Yet existing trail and bicycle facilities serve
only about one-third of Renton's population and about two thirds of
employees. Many neighborhoods have limited and disconnected
facilities.
The City of Renton prepared a Trails and Bicycle Master Plan in
2009, one of few municipalities in Washington State addressing
both pedestrian and bicycle modes in one plan. The 2009 plan
steered several trail and bicycle lane extensions, and acquisitions
for future extensions. (See sidebar.)
Building on the prior plan, this Trails and Bicycle Master Plan will
guide Renton's Trails and Bicycle system for the 2019-2025
timeframe. With the Plan, the City can seek funding and
partnerships to invest in its historic neighborhoods as well as newer
communities annexed with little trail and bicycle facility investments.
Extensive community outreach has inspired this plan. By 2025 and
beyond, this plan seeks to create one connected diverse system to
support Renton's growing population and thriving economy. The
system will increase comfort and encourage all ages and abilities to
find destinations, recreate, and commute throughout Renton and the
region.
WHY PLAN?
Eligibility for State Funding
An update to this Plan is required every six years to maintain
eligibility for grants administered by the Washington State
Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO). RCO requires
jurisdictional applicants to have a plan as a criterion for grant
applications. This Plan is intended to comply with all RCO
requirements. This plan can also serve as a foundation to seek other
The City of Renton, alone and in
partnership, implemented
projects guided by the 2009
Trails and Bicycle Master Plan.

Articulates a Vision that Directs Practices
This plan includes a Vision for an accessible, diverse, and safe trail and
bike system that offers places for active recreation, community connection,
and equitable access to destinations and opportunities. This Vision is
based on community input and inspired proposed projects intended to
increase user comfort and reduce traffic stress to encourage walking and
biking throughout the community.
Efficiently Manages System
This Plan is designed to efficiently manage the trail and bike system by:
■ Building on the existing regional and local system,
■ Providing a variety of facility types and phasing to maintain flexibility
to respond to different route conditions and funding resources,
■ Connecting residents and employees with job centers, shopping,
recreation, and services to advance economic and community

BENEFITS OF WALKING & BICYCLING
Well -designed communities with recreation facilities can help Renton
residents to lead more active lifestyles benefiting their health and well-
being. The built environment can severely constrain routine avenues of
physical activity. It is less attractive to walk or bike in areas with no
facilities, high traffic, or long distances between origins and destinations.
Communities designed for exercise can prevent 90 percent of type 2
diabetes, as well as 50% of heart disease, stroke, and site -specific
cancers. There is a 50% increased likelihood that people who live near
trails meet physical activity guidelines. (University of Minnesota. August
2007; Journal of Applied Physiology and Public Health Institute in Urban
Land Institute 201 3)

CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
Those participating in Renton's online questionnaires in 2017 participate in
walking at a rate of about 85%, similar to state survey information.
Improving facilities can help reinforce interest and participation.
Parks and recreation facilities like trails, and access to centers and open
spaces, provide economic value to a community by increasing property
values, attracting long-term residents and employers, and supporting
tourism. (American Planning Association 2001; Trust for Public Land, 2011
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PLANS
This Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan is designed to implement
Renton's Comprehensive Plan Land Use; Parks, Recreation, Natural Areas
and Trails; and Transportation Elements. This Plan establishes the
framework for future improvements and is a source of non -motorized
project improvements for the City's Capital Facilities Plan Element, Six -year
Capital Investment Program, and the Transportation Improvement Program.
This Plan is a companion system plan to the Renton's Parks, Recreation, and
Natural Areas Plan. This Plan is designed to be consistent with and
leverage community plans such as the City Center Community Plan, Benson
Hill Community Plan, and the Downtown Renton Civic Core Vision and
Action Plan, and to implement the City Council's Policy Agenda.
PLAN ORGANIZATION
This plan is organized in seven sections building from a Vision to a Demand
and Needs Analysis to a System Plan with prioritized projects. Community
engagement and input informed each component of the plan.
Implementation strategies complete the plan and identify monitoring and
next steps.

Vision & Goals
The Plan Vision and Goals and Objectives directed the development of the
proposed network and projects included in this Master Plan and will
continue to guide planning, funding, and implementing actions in the future.
The Plan Vision describes Renton's ideal future Trails and Bicycle system:
The Trails and Bicycle Master Plan fosters an integrated trail and bicycle system that connects
the City's neighborhoods, community, and region. Residents, employees, and visitors can
access a diverse system in urban and natural settings that are safe and comfortable for users
of all ages and abilities. People can recreate, exercise, andlor commute for an active,
healthy lifestyle.
Reflecting the Vision, Goals describe desired results of this Plan:
• Improving safety
• Creating an accessible and connected system
• Promoting physical and environmental health
• Achieving equity
• Enhancing the economy and community
Community Involvement
The City conducted an extensive public outreach and engagement process
in 2017 to help form this Plan, including:
■ An online questionnaire with 340 full and partial responses
■ An interactive online mapping activity attracting 1,380-page views
and 342 data points
■ Three in -person community open houses

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
■ Three Technical Advisory Committee meetings, and with regional
stakeholders
■ Two Interagency Regional Trails planning meetings with King County
■ Project briefings with the Parks Commission, Planning Commission, and
the Renton City Council
Based on outreach and engagement results, key findings include:
1. Recreation -based walking and biking is still a primary purpose.
2. Respondents preferred to walk shorter distances.
3. Respondents reported longer and more frequent bicycle trips.
4. Respondents preferred to walk and bike on formal facilities, as opposed to
street shoulders.
5. The Cedar River Trail is the most heavily used trail.
6. Addressing pedestrian and bicyclist comfort is necessary to encouraging
more travel and recreation by foot or bike.
7. Connection to transit is an important need.
8. Mountain biking and other more unique forms of bicycling are popular
along lakes, streams, and rivers.
9. Equestrian use was not an identified need.
See Chapter 3 and Appendix A for Community Engagement details.
Demand & Needs for Trails and Bicycle Facilities
To meet state requirements for planning, the City needs to define
community needs and demand for trail and bicycle facilities. By
understanding gaps and trends, the City can develop solutions like projects
and actions. Particular needs and demands are highlighted below.
Discontinuous Trail and Bicycle Network: Renton's current trail and bike
routes serve several of the highest population and job density areas,
though there are gaps particularly in the northeast and southeast parts of
the city.
Increased Growth and Demand: By 2035, the City has planned to add
16,700 housing units and over 31,000 jobs per the Renton Comprehensive
Plan. The new residents and employees would increase the demand for all
modes of travel including walking and biking.

Limited Low Traffic Stress Routes for Bicycles: Bicycle systems that
provide low traffic stress and high connectivity attract wider usage. Bicycle
routes can be rated based on the level of traffic stress (LTS) a user
experiences. (Mineta Transportation Institute, 201 2)
Exhibit ES 1 illustrates that lower LTS facilities serve a broader group of
users because of increased comfort and safety. Renton has some LTS 1 & 2
routes, which are in Kennydale, Cedar River, and the Valley. Most of the
community is not served by LTS 1 & 2 routes that offer off -road trails or
dedicated and separated bicycle lanes.

Discontinuous Access to Destinations: Schools, parks, and employment
centers are partially linked by trails and bicycle routes. There are missing
links and gaps that deter non -motorized travel.
Limited Access to Opportunities: The Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC)
has evaluated areas in terms of access to opportunities — education,
economic, housing, transportation, and health/environment. The trail and
bicycle network can increase opportunities by providing access for areas
of lesser opportunity. The existing network is sparser in a few of the
Community Planning Areas of Benson, Highlands, and West Hill (see
sidebar and Chapter 2).

Community
Planning Areas
The City of Renton has
defined 10 Community
Planning Areas. Each have
different characteristics and
needs. See Chapter 2.
Level of Service
A "level of service" (LOS) refers to the amount and quality of trails and
bicycle facilities that are necessary to meet current and future needs. A
LOS helps establish a capital facility program. Costs and revenue can then
be matched, and projects phased to help achieve the planned LOS. The
City has developed a three-part LOS addressing quantity, quality, and
distribution.
1. Quantity: Increase the miles of trails per 1,000 persons.
2. Quality: Increase the extent of LTS 1 and LTS 2 facilities to increase
user comfort and participation.
3. Connectivity and Extent (Distribution):
a. Reduce gaps and increase the coverage of facilities within all
Renton community planning areas.
b. Increase the share of residents and employees within a quarter
mile of facilities.
By implementing these levels of service, the City can close gaps and meet
demands. For example, population and jobs in proximity to LTS 1 & 2
network shows nearly all areas of the community would have improved
access. See Exhibit ES 2 and Exhibit ES 3.

Network Recommendations
Renton's Trail and Bicycle System is an integrated system that will be
expanded from about 30 miles to 127 miles within the city limits. This
includes approximately 4 miles of existing trail facilities being upgraded
or converted to different facility types. Another 8 miles of new, proposed
trails are planned in areas immediately outside of Renton's city limits for an
overall plan total of 135 miles. See Exhibit ES 4.

The Trail and Bicycle System features a regional hub where the Cedar
River trail, Lake to Sound Trail and the connection to the Eastside Rail
Corridor connect in the City Center, and an expanded local network of
trails. Regional trails connect Renton to other cities and regional
destinations that lie to the north, east, south, and west. Local Connector
routes tie together multiple Renton neighborhoods to one another and carry
more non -motorized trips. Local Neighborhood routes connect destinations
within the same neighborhood. See Exhibit ES 5 and Exhibit ES 6.

Projects & Priorities
Responding to gaps, needs, and community input, this plan promotes trail
and bicycle facilities of all types across all Community Planning Areas.
■ Eighty proposed projects were identified and scored with the
following Prioritization Criteria developed from Vision and Goals:
Connectivity and Accessibility, Safety and Trail Experience, Equity,
Economy and Community, Construction and Implementation.
In addition, the City used two qualitative criteria to develop the Highest
Priority Projects list (Tier 1 ): Partnership Commitments and Geographic
equity. Since all proposed projects are important to the City, Tier 2 (High
Priority) and Tier 3 (Medium) Priority were developed to distinguish the
rest of the projects. See Exhibit ES 7 for the overall process.
Exhibit ES 7. Prioritization Process
Source: BERK, 2018.
Once scored, three tiers of projects were developed with Tier 1 identifying
the top priority projects for the City. The other two tiers spanned the
natural breaks in the scores. Since some projects had identical scores, there
were 27 projects in Tier 1, 26 projects in Tier 2, and 27 projects in Tier 3.
These proposed projects added 1 01 .9 miles to the Trails and Bicycle
network via multiple facilities types.

Implementation Strategies
A plan is meaningful when it is implemented. This Master Plan identifies
several strategies and future recommendations to develop a unified trail
and bicycle system for the Renton community.
Monitoring: The City will track its performance periodically to determine
progress on plan implementation and to adaptively manage its resources.
The Performance measures can potentially include:
■ Percentage of bicycle facility network completed in gaps, to schools,
to parks.
■ Percentage increase in LTS 1 or 2 network.
■ Percentage of households within 1/a mile of network. Percentage
increase in network serving children, elderly, households in poverty.
■ Percentage increase in access to high density residential or commercial
zones, transit, or services. Percentage progress on Tier 1 Projects.
■ Projects programed and completed in six -year CIP.
Phasing and Fee in Lieu: Renton may phase improvements and consider
alternative trail and bicycle facility types and cross sections. The City could
implement development requirements for trail or bicycle facilities or a fee
in lieu.
Partnerships: Continue existing and seek new partnerships to
advance funding for design and construction of priority
projects.
Current and Future Funding: Continue existing funding
sources and pursue other funding sources that would be
dedicated to the provision of trails and bicycle facilities.
Requirements: Update city regulations to reference this plan
and adopt new regulations that require trail easements for
areas where key local or regional trails have been identified
in this plan.

Incentives: Continue incentive programs, like Commute Trip
Reduction programs by large employers develop incentives for developers
when amenities for transit users, bicyclists, and pedestrians are included in
their plans.

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
Events & Promotion: Promote community engagement and healthy
lifestyles by:
■ Promoting awareness of the trail and bicycle system by advertising its
system,
■ Marketing recreation and community events in association with trails
and bicycle facilities including fun runs, races, and other activities,
■ Supporting guided walking and biking tours, and
■ Working in partnership with King County Metro on expanding its
transit to trail program.
Safety & Awareness: Develop traffic safety materials and pursue
implementing design standards that help enforce safe and responsible for
all traffic modes.
Future Policy Explorations: There are many policies and trends the City
can further explore, including but not limited to:
■ Multimodal transportation levels of service for use in transportation
concurrency standards and mitigation fees.
■ Sidewalk plan integration with this Trails and Bicycle Plan to
coordinate planning and implementation of its non -motorized system.
■ Whether and how to implement a Vision Zero program that sets a
goal of zero traffic deaths or severe injuries through holistic,
integrated action strategies.
Renton will determine the best combination of monitoring and
implementation strategies based on available resources and needs.

TRAILS & BICYCLE SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS
The City currently has approximately 30 miles of trails of different types —
shared use paths that accommodate pedestrians and bicyclists, dedicated
bike lanes, and dedicated pedestrian trails. See Exhibit 2-1. Trails are
located chiefly along water bodies and major routes but are not fully
connected and there are major population centers that are not currently
being served. See Exhibit 2-2.

CITYWIDE CONTEXT
The City of Renton has seen growth and change in the past three decades
Population increased from 50,052 in 2000 to 104,100 in 2018, partly
through annexations. The City added jobs in the same period, with
employment growing from 55,519 jobs in 2000 to 61,920 in 2018.
Median household income has risen to $66,050 today. As the City has
grown the proportion of older and younger residents remained relatively
constant, hovering at roughly 10% and 23% respectively. Rates of vehicle
ownership have also remained steady citywide, with 90-95% of city
households having access to a car. However, mirroring regional and
national trends, the city has become more racially diverse. The proportion
of non -white residents increased from 35% in 2000 to 54% in 2018.

RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
PLANNING AREA PROFILES
The City of Renton and its Potential Annexation Areas are comprised of
many distinct communities, each with their own unique districts and
neighborhoods. Given the need to plan effectively for this diverse set of
communities, the City of Renton and its Potential Annexation Areas are
divided into ten geographically distinct Community Planning Areas as
shown in Exhibit 2-5. Community Planning Areas share community identity,
schools, existing infrastructure, and physical features. Through the
Community Planning process, residents, businesses, and other stakeholders
develop a local vision and establish policies that address issues of growth,
quality of life, design, and capital improvements in their respective
planning area.
Thus far, Community Plans have been adopted for two Community Planning
Areas (City Center and Benson Hill) while others are planned for the future.
Overall, existing trail miles in the city limits indicate a concentration of
facilities in the City Center which includes a hub of regional trails like the
Cedar River Trail, Lake to Sound Trail, connection to the Eastside Rail
Corridor, and waterfront park pedestrian trails and bike lanes. An
additional concentration of existing facilities is situated in the Valley where
the Springbrook Trail is located. See Exhibit 2-4. Recognizing the need for
geographic equity, and to address the County's limited historical investment
in large annexation areas such as Benson Hill, this Trails and Bicycle Plan
will increase trail miles in all Community Planning Areas. The greatest
increases are planned in Benson Hill and Highlands Community Plan Areas
— two areas that are currently largely underserved.
The following section summarizes demographic and Community Planning
Area Characteristics of nine Community Planning Areas within the City and
places it in the context of the City as whole. Demographic data shown
reflects only those portions of the respective Community Planning Areas
that are located within Renton's city limits. As a result, the Fairwood
planning area is excluded as it resides entirely outside the City.

3 COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
ENGAGEMENT ACTIVITIES
The City conducted an extensive public outreach process, with an online
questionnaire, an interactive mapping activity, and three in -person
community open houses. Three meetings were organized with a Technical
Advisory Committee. The City also met with regional stakeholders. Project
briefings were presented to the Parks Commission, Planning Commission,
and the Renton City Council. Results are summarized in this Chapter with
more detailed information in Appendix A.
Top Takeaways
Based on the outreach the key takeaways include:
1. Recreation -based walking and biking is still a primary purpose.
Commuting by bike and on foot is also occurring and could be
encouraged more.
2. Respondents preferred to walk shorter distances, around their
neighborhoods, mainly for recreation. Walking was not seen as a
primary mode of transportation.
3. Respondents reported longer and more frequent bicycle trips.
Bicyclists bike within and beyond their neighborhood to trails, work
places or school, or civic or recreation facilities.
4. Respondents preferred to walk and bike on formal facilities such as
sidewalks, streets, or paved trails.
5. The Cedar River Trail is the most heavily used trail. Not surprisingly,
given its central location within the city and its length, respondents
cited the Cedar River Trail as the most used non -motorized trail. Trails
along other riparian corridors, such as the Springbrook Creek, Honey
Creek, and May Creek were less frequently used.
6. Addressing pedestrian and bicyclist comfort is necessary to
encourage more travel and recreation by foot or bike. Discontinuous
or missing sidewalks, walking on roads with fast moving traffic, and
difficulty crossing came up as top barriers to walking. Barriers to
biking focused on the absence of biking facilities (e.g. paved

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
shoulders, bike lanes, shared use paths), dangerous crossings and
streets with fast moving cars. The lack of wayfinding was also cited as
a potential barrier.
7. Connection to transit is an important need. Transit is often accessed
by walking and biking and connections to current and future transit is a
key link.
8. Mountain biking and other more unique forms of bicycling are
pursued by about a quarter of questionnaire respondents, who enjoy
riding along lakes, streams, and rivers.
9. Equestrian use was not an identified need. The questionnaire
included questions on horseback riding, but no respondents offered
input.
Questionnaire
The City issued a questionnaire in summer 2017 for nearly three months
and received 340 responses (131 full and 209 partial). Respondents are
more able-bodied than Census reports for the city. The share of
questionnaire respondents with children is similar to Census reports for
Renton. Questionnaire respondents are more likely to commute by walking
or bicycling than the city as a whole. Results showed:
■ Purpose of Walking/Biking: Walking, running, and biking activities
tend to be more for recreation purposes rather than for transportation.
■ Frequency: Most respondents walk at least 2 times per week or more,
and bike 1 day per week or less.
■ Destinations: Most respondents walk or bike around their
neighborhood or to a public facility. In the case of bicyclists, they also
frequently use trails. While respondents visited a wide number of
Renton park, recreation, and civic facilities, the most well visited ones
were along Lake Washington and the Cedar River.
■ Traffic Stress: Renton questionnaire respondents indicated that 25%
were confident on any road, about 50% were comfortable with roads
having some traffic but prefer those with wide shoulders or lanes or
trails, and over 20% were concerned about traffic and other factors.
■ Barriers & Incentives - Walking or Running: Top barriers to running
or walking included street crossings, traffic, discontinuous sidewalks, or
locations along roads. Top improvements to encouraging walking or
- - - JANUARY 2019
�' -- COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
running, include more curb ramps, sidewalks, more shared -use trails,
maintenance, and enforcement of traffic laws and biking.
■ Barriers & Incentives — Biking: Top barriers to biking include motor
vehicle speed, lack of bicycle facilities, too many cars, and routes that
are stressful or dangerous. Top improvements include safer
intersections, wider shoulders on roads, more shared use trails, and
street calming measures in residential areas.
Interactive Maps
An interactive online map was open to public input from June 10, 2017 to
August 31, 2017. The interactive map site had 1,380-page views and 342
data points. Participants could identify areas where they walked or biked,
and problem areas. Maps and summaries of comments follow.
Walking
Based on input received, walk problems included lack of
sidewalks and connections as well as traffic, speeding, and
other dangerous conditions. Most pedestrian problem spots
were identified in the East Plateau, North Highlands, and
mid-Kennydale Planning Areas. See Exhibit 3-1 and
Exhibit 3-2.

The range of comments included:
■ Nice walk, but would feel much safer with sidewalk (Kennydale area).
■ No sidewalk for most of this very busy road (Sunset area).
■ Need signage and wayfinding to connect to Cedar River trail.
■ Missing ADA ramp.
■ There is no way to get up and down the hill safely between Carr Rd.
and SE 200th St.... That's a 1.25-mile sidewalk desert.
Destinations included the Cedar River Trail and May Creek Trail. Many
respondents reported walking in neighborhoods on the Renton plateau

Community comments on biking problem spots were similar to comments
about walking. Biking problems related to concerns about travel lanes and
trails, and traffic and safety conditions. Based on comments, most bike
problem spots follow future alignments of the regional trail system. See
Exhibit 3-3 and Exhibit 3-4.

Destinations included the Cedar River Trail, Green River Trail, Lake

addressed different connections or safety concerns such as:
■ Add bike trail between Cedar & Green river trails.
■ Need a safe bike route connecting to Skyway and West Hill.
■ Sunset Blvd provides the best grade for connectivity with Highlands,
needs bike lanes.
■ Best bike route up Benson Hill is not clear. Probably old Benson Rd, but
need bike lanes to continue. Consider road diet south of Puget.
■ Very narrow shoulder, difficult connection to Jones Road from Cedar
River Trail.
■ Cars using wrong lane, conflicting with NB left turning bikes and cars.

King County Meetings
Coordination with King County Parks and Recreation Division, Capital
Projects Program, and Governmental Relations was essential to plan
development with the convergence of four regional trails within Renton's
Urban Growth Area: The Cedar River Trail (CR), Eastside Rail Corridor
(ERC), Lake to Sound Trail (L2S), and the Lake Washington Loop Trail.
The purpose of the meetings was to collaborate with King County
representatives on possible and preferred routing for the regional trails
through the City of Renton, discuss alternative facility types for these
corridors, update on the status of the Civic Core planning effort and review
proposed cross sections for the corridors in that plan, and review the status
of other regional trails/routes. Two meetings were held to identify and
agree upon the alignment and facility designation(s) for the regional trails.
Detailed meeting summaries, route concepts, and cross -sections are
included in Appendix B of this plan.
Technical Advisory Committee
Community members volunteered to participate in the Technical Advisory
Committee for this plan which included additional background and
educational discussions to provide feedback for plan development.
Important considerations included:
■ The importance of connecting regional trails
■ The importance of the transit center as a destination
■ Recognition that trail users are not as aware of traffic control devices
like Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacons (RRFB) or C-curbs; this lack of
awareness should be addressed in design options
■ Cost considerations, and related "low hanging fruit" or easy wins are
important to elevate as criteria
The following trouble spots were identified primarily about bicycling
except where noted:
■ Near Dimmitt Middle School the location of a pedestrian -vehicle crash
■ Crossing Sunset Blvd. near Harrington
■ NE Park Drive Freeway ramps
■ Gate on Houser Way at Kenworth

Key themes emerged from the broad input received through outreach
activities. The key themes and representative quotes are shown in the

4 DEMAND & NEEDS ANALYSIS
This Chapter reviews needs and trends including:
■ Walking and biking activities participation
■ Future growth and change
■ Level of traffic stress
■ Destinations such as transit, schools, and parks
■ Connection to the community's center and region
Based on the needs and trends, gaps and opportunities are identified. The
current and proposed system that closes gaps and addresses needs is
benchmarked to peer communities. Level of service concepts are explored.
Participation
Walking and biking are important to Renton residents and visitors, and
Renton's local activities match the similarly high participation in the region
and state.
Renton Mobility & Recreation Use & Performance Indicators
Renton's parks and trail system attracts up to 2.5 million visitors each year.
In the questionnaire for this Trails and Bicycle Master Plan, most
respondents walk at least 2 times per week or more, and bike 1 day per
week or less. At least 80% of the respondents walked or biked around the
neighborhood, over two thirds walked on a trail and over three quarters
biked on a trail. See Exhibit 4-1 and Appendix A.

RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
Renton monitors mobility and recreation performance indicators in its
budget, and the 2017-2018 budget reported:
■ Increasing satisfaction with connectivity to local and regional centers
via transit, sidewalks and trails from 52% in 2011 to 56% in 2015.
■ Relatively high but variable satisfaction with the level of trail
connectivity and access at 74% to 83% during the 2012-2014 period.
■ Overall customer satisfaction ratings of good to excellent in cleanliness
and appearance of Trail System, with 84%-93% satisfaction variably
over the 2012-2015 period.
State Trails Plan
In 2017 a statistically valid participation rate survey across Washington
found the top activity of all respondents consisted of walking in a park or
trail setting at 84%. Participation equaled 89% considering the Seattle -
King region alone. Walking was also the top activity at over 90% for
families with or without children.
State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Planning
The 2017 State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Planning (SCORP)
document considers participation in recreation activities across the state
and in different regions. The report found the participation rates for
walking was 94% statewide. Rates were 28% for biking mostly on streets
and roads, and 23% for running (many locations). Across different ages,
races, or incomes, the top recreation activity was consistently walking in a
park or trail setting. About 89% of participants in the Seattle -King region
participated in walking in a park or trail setting. Most participation
locations occurred in a person's yard or neighborhood.
Future Growth & Change
Renton's current trail and bike routes serve several of the highest
population and job density areas though there are gaps particularly in the
northeast and southeast geographies. See Exhibit 4-2 and Exhibit 4-3
Dense population and job centers are associated with high -density
residential and commercial/industrial zones. Over a 20-year planning
period concluding in 2035, over 16,700 housing units and 31,000 jobs
would be added per the Renton Comprehensive Plan. New residents and
employees would increase demand for walking and biking. Much of the
growth would occur in the high -density residential and commercial zones
identified in Exhibit 4-4, particularly in the City Center.

Level of Traffic Stress
Bicycle systems that provide low traffic stress and high connectivity
attract wider usage:
...a bicycling network to attract the widest possible
segment of the population, its most fundamental attribute
should be low -stress connectivity, that is, providing routes
between people's origins and destinations that do not
require cyclists to use links that exceed their tolerance for
traffic stress, and that do not involve an undue level of
detour. (Mineta Transportation Institute, 20 7 2)
Renton has some low stress routes usable by most adults and
children. These are in Kennydale, Cedar River, and the Valley.
Most of the community does not have low stress facilities within 114
mile. See Exhibit 4-5 and Exhibit 4-6.

Schools
Renton is served by the Renton School District, Issaquah School District, and
Kent School District. There are numerous private school throughout the City.
The Renton School District serves most of the Renton city limits. The district
has 15 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 4 high schools.
Renton's 2017 Trails and Bicycle Questionnaire found that children walk to
a large list of local schools (1 2 schools), and to a lesser extent bike to them
(6 schools). See Appendix A.
Renton has a sidewalk rehabilitation and replacement program targeting
places where curb, gutter, sidewalks, and curb ramps are needed. Many of
the schools in the district identify "walk to school" route options, and
improvements within those areas would benefit children and families.
Parks & Recreation Facilities
Renton's parks and recreation facilities include 32 developed public parks,
965 acres of public open space, an 1 8-hole public golf course, two lake-
front beaches and a public boat launch. Many parks and recreation
facilities are accessed along the Cedar River Trail and Springbrook Trail,
as well as bike lanes and shared roadways. Pedestrian trails also connect
to and through parks and recreation facilities. However, parks and
recreation facilities are not fully connected by the trails and bicycle system.

Transit Dependent Populations
Renton's City Center and Valley planning areas have the most frequent bus
service. The Highlands and Benson neighborhoods have a few all -day
routes. Other areas have less frequent service and sparser coverage of
transit. The trail and bicycle network to transit facilities is discontinuous in
areas outside the City Center.
Areas with larger proportions of the elderly, the young, low-income
individuals, and households without access to a car are often considered
transit dependent. The first and last mile problem, one of the most complex
challenges for public transit, refers to the beginning and end of a trip
primarily made by public transit. Renton's Trails and Bicycle Questionnaire
responses indicate that Renton residents use bicycles or walk to make short,
local trips typically associated with the first and last mile problem. See
Appendix A.
Improving walking and biking infrastructure to appeal to a broad and
diverse range of people — elderly, young, low income — can potentially
help solve the first and last mile problem and thereby make it easier for
more people to access transit. This would benefit one-third of the
community that are younger than 18 and older than 65 years. See Exhibit
2-3 in Chapter 2.
Those earning less than or equal to 80% of the area median income are
concentrated in the City Center, Valley, Benson, and Highlands areas. See
Exhibit 4-8.

Equity — Puget Sound Regional Council Opportunity Index
The Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) has evaluated areas that provide
access to opportunities — education, economic, housing, transportation, and
health/environment. The current trail and bicycle network contribute to
opportunities and access for persons of color, and diverse age groups in
the City Center, Valley, and a few other Community Planning Areas. The
existing network is sparser in areas of lesser opportunity in Benson,
Highlands, and West Hill.
Opportunity maps illustrate where opportunity -rich communities exist, assess
who has access to those neighborhoods, and help to understand what needs
to be remedied in opportunity -poor neighborhoods. Exhibit 4-9 displays
the current trail and bicycle network against the latest PSRC Opportunity
Index map. This map is a graphical representation of how this plan
analyzed demand and need with an equity lens.

City Center and
Regional Trails
City Center Plan, Makers
2011
City Center
Renton's City Center Planning Area contains the historic core of the
community. It is a regional center for manufacturing and service jobs, and
increasingly a mixed -use residential neighborhood offering cultural and
commercial amenities. Many roads and regional trails converge in this hub.
The Renton Library, City Hall, and other government facilities serve the
community. Regional parks and trails provide gathering places and access
to the Cedar River and other open spaces. Renton adopted a City Center
Community Plan to guide the future growth and direction of the center.
City Center Community Plan goals include increasing transportation
connections for multiple modes, improving trail connections and reaching
more destinations, and making civic amenities more accessible. Since the
City Center is a multimodal crossroads to other neighborhoods, meeting
City Center goals will also advance this Trails and Bicycle Master Plan.
Goal 5: Provide better regional transportation connections for a
range of transportation modes to improve access to and from
the City Center.
Goal 6: Provide better internal connections between areas within
the City Center, especially Coulon ParklLake Washington, The
Landing, North Renton neighborhood, Downtown, and the South
Renton neighborhood.
Goal 7: Connect regional trails in the City Center and build on
these key connections as an economic development strategy.
Goal 8: Protect and enhance the natural features and open
space in the City Center and improve public access to and
connections between the Lake Washington shoreline, the Cedar
River, and the variety of parks and open spaces throughout the
City Center.
The City Center is designated in part a Regional Growth Center and is also
slated to take most of Renton's residential and commercial growth in the
next 20 years. Today, single -occupancy vehicles comprise 82% of trips in
the City Center. The City's goal is to decrease drive alone work trips to
below 75%. Improving opportunities to bike and walk to and through the
City Center will help meet the needs of residents and employees across the
Renton planning area.

Regional Trails
Regional trails in Renton include the Cedar River Trail, Soos Creek Trail,
Lake to Sound Trail, and soon the Eastside Rail Corridor and the Lake to
Sound Trail.
When complete the Eastside Rail Corridor will provide 16.7 miles of new
trail that will connect the cities of Renton, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, and
Woodinville.
The Lake to Sound Trail, when completed by King County, will be a
continuous 16-mile non -motorized, multi -use recreational trail from the south
end of Lake Washington in Renton to the Puget Sound in Des Moines,
connecting the cities of Renton, Tukwila, Sea-Tac, Burien, and Des Moines.
King County has also planned other regional trail extensions with the Soos
Creek Trail with the future goal of connection to the Cedar River Trail.
See Chapter 5 for additional information on increases in Regional Trail miles.
GAPS & OPPORTUNITIES
Renton considered the gap analysis and community comments to identify
opportunities to create a more connected system with capacity for current
and future use.
This plan encourages higher participation rates in walking and biking by
better connecting users to destinations, reducing traffic stress, and
anticipating greater demand from new housing and job growth:
■ The network increases the extent of facilities in both high population
and high job density. See Exhibit 4-10 and Exhibit 4-1 1.
■ Nearly every gap is filled with a connecting route meeting LTS 1 or 2
criteria. See Exhibit 4-12.
■ The future network knits together all Community Planning Areas
including those of low opportunity. See Exhibit 4-1 3.

Benchmarking compares Renton's trail miles to other agencies to assess
Renton's performance relative to peer communities.
Renton has the lowest miles per 1,000 population compared to surrounding
communities and other major cities in south and east King County. See
Exhibit 4-14. If only implementing the Highest Priority projects (Tier 1) in
Chapter 5, the City's network will be in the middle of benchmark

LEVEL OF SERVICE
A "level of service" (LOS) refers to the amount and quality of trails and
bicycle facilities that are necessary to meet current and future needs. A
LOS helps establish a capital facility program. Costs and revenue can
then be matched, and projects phased to help achieve the planned LOS.
LOS policies or standards are locally established and up to each
community to set. Levels of service are often related to a unit of
population, e.g. miles of trail per 1,000 population. In addition to
quantity -based LOS measures, communities often consider quality and
extent (distribution).
This Plan is designed to meet the following three LOS criteria:
1. Level of Service — Quantity: Increase the miles of trails per 1,000
persons. See Exhibit 4-15.
Exhibit 4-15. Miles of Trails per 1,000 (2018 — 2035)
The Plan will increase miles of trails per 1,000 residents in Renton from its
current level of 0.29 miles/1,000 residents in 2018 to 0.44 miles/1,000
residents with the implementation of all highest priority projects and to
0.95 miles/1,000 residents with the implementation of all proposed
projects by 2035.

NETWORK RECOMMENDATIONS
Renton's Trail and Bicycle System is one integrated system that will be
expanded from about 30 miles to 127 miles within the city limits. This
includes approximately 4 miles of existing trail facilities being upgraded
or converted to different facility types. See Exhibit 5-1 . Another 8 miles of
new, proposed trails are planned in areas immediately outside of Renton's
city limits for an overall plan total of 135 miles.
Exhibit 5-1. Existing and Proposed Trail Miles
Source: City of Renton, 201 8; BERK, 2018.
The Trail and Bicycle System features a regional hub connecting in the
Downtown Urban Center, and an expanded local network. Regional trails
connect Renton to other cities and regional destinations that lie to the north,
east, south, and west. Local Connector routes tie together multiple Renton
neighborhoods to one another and carry more non -motorized trips. Local
Neighborhood routes connect destinations within the some neighborhood.

Renton's Downtown Urban Center will become a hub where several
regional trail connections that come together all linked to the Cedar River
Trail.
■ The Eastside Rail Corridor will connect from the Cedar River Trail via
the Renton Connector or Houser Way Bypass north towards Bellevue.
■ The Lake to Sound Trail will connect to the Cedar River Trail to the
east and to the Green River Trail to the west.
■ The Lake Washington Loop Trail would connect from the Cedar River
northwest along Lake Washington Blvd to Seattle.
A series of trail alternatives were reviewed with King County and the City
of Renton staff. See Exhibit 5-4. Based on the meetings with King County,
concepts were developed for Preferred Lake to Sound and Eastside Rail
Corridor routes. See Appendix B for preferred concepts and intersection
improvements.
Other regional trail improvements include the 1.2-mile Soos Creek Trail
extension from SE 192nd St to Petrovitsky Road, considered a high priority
programmed project in the King County Regional Trails Need Report and
the 2014 - 2019 Capital Improvement Program. Other segments including

Roadway Characterisitcs & Trail & Bicycle Options
Renton's unified trail system is made up of different facilities meant to
reduce level of stress given traffic volumes, speed, and number of lanes in
each direction. Shared Use Paths are separated from roadways and have
the most flexible use and are often implemented with Regional or Local -
Connector facilities. Bicycle lanes may be protected, buffered, or striped
on Local -Connector facilities. Local Neighborhood routes feature lower
volume traffic and a range of Shared Roadways, Buffered Lanes,
Neighborhood Greenways, or Soft Surface Trails. See Exhibit 5-7.

Low -Stress Network
The City of Renton can select the facility type that most increases user
comfort where feasible with local conditions. By increasing comfort and
offering more buffered or protected facilities, there could be increased
non -motorized facility usage.
The Trails and Bicycle Plan increases the miles of trail and bicycle facilities
that are suited for all or most users — LTS 1 and LTS 2. See Exhibit 5-9.
These include facilities such as separated Shared Use Paths, Protected and
Buffered Bike Lanes, and others.
For a variety of reasons —physical conditions, design considerations,
partner requirements, funding, and others — LTS 1 and 2 facilities are not
feasible everywhere.
When fully implemented, the plan increases LTS 1 & 2 facility miles from
23.34 to 1 12.97 miles, an increase of 398%. Additionally, the plan
increases LTS 3 & 4 facility miles from 6.86 to 14.84 miles, an increase of

SHARED USE PATH
A shared -use path is physically separated from traffic by open space or a
barrier and allows for two-way travel. A shared -use path can be used by
bicyclists, pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, joggers, and other non -
motorized users. Some common locations for shared -use paths are along
rivers, streams, utility rights of way, and abandoned railroad rights of way
and between parks as well as within existing roadway corridors.
Example: Cedar River Trail.
For the purposes of this plan, the Shared -Use Path standard measurements
were used. Physical and financial cost constraints may lead to considering
Side Paths, which separation and width would not be ideal.
Regional Shared Use Paths, like the Cedar River Trail, were the most used
by bicyclists and second -most used locations by walkers per questionnaire
results. Route locations along natural areas and separated routes were
particularly used and desired by off -road bicycle users such as mountain
bikers, BMX users, and Cyclocross users as preferred locations in the
questionnaire. See Chapter 3.
The Washington State Department of Transportation's Design Manual
suggests: When designing shared -use paths, the bicyclist may not be the
critical design user for every element of design. For example, the crossing
speeds of most intersections between roads and pathways should be
designed for pedestrians, as they are the slowest users. Accommodate all
intended users and minimize conflicts.

PROTECTED BIKE LANE
A protected bike lane combines the user experience of a multi -use trail
with a conventional bike lane. They provide space that is used for bicycles
and are separated from motor vehicle travel lanes, parking lanes and
sidewalks. Two-way protected bike lanes are physically separated cycle
tracks that allow bicycle movement in both directions on one side of the
road. This facility type will be newly implemented in the city and planning
area.

■ Configured as a protected cycle track —at street level with
a parking lane or other barrier between the cycle track and

SIGNED SHARED ROADWAY
When right-of-way widths and existing roadway conditions
prohibit the addition of dedicated bicycle facilities, a roadway
can be designated for shared use by motorists and bicyclists.
Typically, this design solution is used on roadways with low
traffic speeds and low levels of traffic or with wide curb lanes (i.e. 14 feet
minimum). Signed shared roadways may provide a safer alternative to
travel on busier parallel routes; direct cyclists toward particular
destinations, such as parks, schools, shopping areas; or may serve as a link
between discontinuous segments of dedicated bicycle facilities. Because
signed shared roadways are often local streets, they may not necessarily
be the most direct route. Ideally, signed shared roadways give bicyclists
more priority in traffic maneuvers.
Example: 1 7 6th Ave SE
Exhibit 5-15. Signed Shared Roadway
Signed Shared Roadway
■ Bicyclists share roadway with motorists for safety,
wayfinding, or other purposes
■ No change to roadway configuration required, though

PEDESTRIAN TRAILS
Pedestrian trails are dedicated facilities made of a variety of surfaces
depending on environmental sensitivity and usage levels. Hard -surface
trails can require less maintenance and accommodate more frequent use
but are more expensive to construct and may not be sited where there are
critical areas. Soft -surface trails can cost less when constructed but are
typically not suited for heavy use and may require more maintenance.
Boardwalks may be appropriate in wetlands or over water bodies.

FACILITY DESIGN GUIDELINES
Intersection & Trail Crossing Guidelines
Well -designed intersections and trail crossings are essential in creating a
continuous trail and bicycle system that encourages walking and biking.
There are limited pedestrian bridges and pedestrians must cross lanes of
travel at intersections; bicyclists are often in the flow of vehicular travel
between and at intersections. Separated trails like shared use paths may
cross streets. See guidelines for different types of crossings below.
Pedestrians at Intersections
These intersections, where the paths of people and vehicles come
together, can be the most challenging part of negotiating a
pedestrian network. If pedestrians cannot cross the street safely,
then mobility is severely limited, access is denied, and walking as
a mode of travel is discouraged. (FHWA, Undated)
Ensuring pedestrian safety and comfort follows these design principles:
■ Make pedestrians as visible as possible.
■ Make pedestrian actions as predictable as possible.
■ Slow vehicular traffic, particularly in central business districts or
similar areas. (FHWA, Undated)
Treatments at intersections include curb bulbs, curb ramps, signalization,
crosswalks, pedestrian refuge islands.
Bicyclists
The principle objective when designing intersections for bicycle
mobility and safety performance is to provide a visible, distinct,
predictable, and clearly designated path leading to and through
the intersection while managing potential conflicts between all
other users and cyclists. (WSDOT Design Manual 2015)
The National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO)
suggests several methods for increasing bicyclists' comfort and reducing
the risk of crashes:
Bike Box
A bike box is a
designated area at the
head of a traffic lane at a
signalized intersection that
provides bicyclists with a
safe and visible way to
get ahead of queuing
traffic during the red
signal phase.
Crossing Markings
Intersection crossing
markings guide bicyclists
on a safe and direct path
through intersections,
including driveways and
ramps.
Through Bicycle Lane
Allows bicyclists an
opportunity to position
themselves to avoid
conflicts with turning
vehicles at an intersection.

Transit as part of a
Mobility Ecosystem
King County Metro customers
will soon be able to use new
mobile apps to hail an on -
demand shuttle to and from
transit hubs throughout the
region, starting at the
county's largest park -and -
ride.... Metro is creating a
mobility ecosystem with
transit at the center, moving
large numbers of people
over longer distances and
along the busiest corridors in
King County. (King County
Metro, October 2018)
Transit Integration
Prioritizing bicycle routes to
transit stops and stations,
reducing traffic, and
improving bicycle and transit
integration (bike parking,
bikes on -board capacity) is
essential to getting transit
customers out of their cars
and on a bicycle for the first
or last mile of travel.
(American Public
Transportation Association,
September 2018)
Bike Sharing
Bike share stations can be
co -located with transit stops
to form mobility hubs.
Wayfinding
Bicycle wayfinding signage
should be used to guide
bicyclists to transit stops,
especially for rapid services
and other transit lines with
significance for long trips.
NACTO
■ Designs should heighten the level of visibility, denoting a clear right-
of-way, and facilitating eye contact and awareness with competing
modes.
■ Intersection treatments can resolve both queuing and merging
maneuvers for bicyclists and are often coordinated with timed or
specialized signals.
■ The configuration of a safe intersection for bicyclists may include
elements such as color, signage, medians, signal detection, and
pavement markings.
See the sidebar for several design options. More options and details
can be found in the WSDOT Design Manual 2015 and the NACTO
Urban Bikeway Design Guide, Second Edition, 2014, and others.
Trail Crossings
Clearly define who has the right of way and provide sight
distance for all users at shared use path and roadway
intersections. (WSDOT Design Manual 2015)
Two types of trail crossings are common:
■ Mid -block — preferably placed perpendicular to a road and with
traffic right of way assignments; traffic control devices; sight distances
for both bicyclists and motor vehicle operators; refuge island use;
access control; and pavement markings
■ Adjacent Path Crossing — at an intersection where the trail crossing is
placed within public intersection crosswalks
In addition to standards in the WSDOT Design Manual for trail
crossings, the City can consult standards and specifications developed
by the National Park Service Handbook for Trail Design and Construction
and Maintenance, and US Forest Service Standard Trail Plans and
Specifications.
Transit Stop Integration
The first and last mile problem, one of the most complex challenges for
public transit, refers to the beginning and end of a trip primarily made
by public transit. Renton's questionnaire responses summarized in
Chapter 3 and Appendix A indicate that residents use bicycles or walk
- JANUARY 2019
•' - - TRAIL & BICYCLE SYSTEM PLAN
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
to make short, local trips typically associated with the first and last mile to
or from the destination.
Improving walking and biking infrastructure to appeal to a broad and
diverse range of people can help address the first and last mile problem
and thereby make it easier for more people to access transit. This plan
includes proposed projects that will improve access to high density
residential or commercial zones, transit, or services.
Likewise, there are many things that transit agencies can do to make transit
use more convenient, including:
■ Allowing bikes on board
■ Providing bicycle parking at transit centers or stops
■ Providing for bike sharing
■ Wayfinding along bike routes
■ Ride sharing to transit hubs in low transit service areas
■ Avoid requiring assigned bike spaces
Signage
This plan promotes a connected system to take trail and bicycle facility
users to everyday destinations. A wayfinding plan for signage can help
them find their destination or discover a new one.
The Renton Downtown Civic Core Vision and Action Plan provides a
wayfinding system to link pedestrians and cyclists to parks, trails, and
places in the Downtown. The wayfinding system advances the design and
character of Downtown. The City anticipates a similar wayfinding
approach citywide with variations unique to each neighborhood.

RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
The City may develop route -specific signage and/or pavement markings to
guide pedestrians and bicyclists to their destinations along preferred
routes. Route designation and guide signs would be installed based on
regional standards. Sign spacings may depend on the regional,
neighborhood, and local destinations on the route. Bike route signs may be
mounted to freestanding posts or to existing utility poles or light standards.
In addition to wayfinding guidelines, this plan addresses roadway caution
signage and pavement markings. Roadside caution signs and pavement
markings follow the standards and guidelines of the Manual of Uniform
Traffic Control Devices and the AASHTO Guidelines for the Development
of Bicycle Facilities.
King County promotes regional trail wayfinding elements through a
general policy in its King County Open Space Plan: Parks, Trails, and
Natural Areas:
CIP-757 King County shouldIshall provide up-to-date mapping
and consistent wayfinding throughout the regional trails network
to enhance user navigation and travel. Trail wayfinding
programs should be consistent with the USDOT MUTCD and
regionally -accepted wayfinding programs.
King County has also created a King County Regional Trails System (RTS)
Arts Master Plan calling for improved signage standards consistent
between the County and cities:
The RTS needs an appropriate wayfinding approach to signage;
this standard should be included in the RTS Design Guidelines.
Consider improved signage standards consistent among King
County and other jurisdictions, with an eye toward unifying
alignments.
For the Cedar River Tail in King County, the Art Master Plan calls for
Gateway/Trailhead Wayfinding Projects, Elements, and Signage.

stations, informal recreation areas, seating and picnic areas, plazas or
gathering spaces, and restrooms. For maintenance and emergency vehicle
access, trailheads would be allowed occasional vehicle access. Trailheads
may offer various levels of amenities depending on location, need, and
expected user groups.
Access should be provided and controlled so that ad hoc trails do not occur
on private land or on public lands where access is not desired, e.g.
environmentally sensitive areas.
The following guidelines relate to the development and placement of
trailheads and access points.
■ Trailhead Location: Trailheads should be placed at each terminus of a
trail corridor, and any place where a large concentration of trail users
is expected, such as at major parks along the trail.
■ Trailhead Features: Trailheads should at least include parking and a
trail map. Trailheads may also include restrooms, drinking water, picnic
facilities, benches, optional lighting, bike racks, and other recreational
amenities. Site specific designs can also create or enhance
neighborhood identity, incorporate public art, and/or provide cultural
or environmental interpretation opportunities.
■ Trailhead Special Parking Designs: Trailheads associated with off -
road biking trails or equestrians should provide parking and turn-
around space for trailers.
■ Trailhead Accessibility: An accessible pathway should be developed
that connects parking and other accessible elements to the trailhead.
ADA access should be provided to as many site features as possible
based on site conditions
■ Trail Access Points: Trail access points should be placed wherever
trail access is expected, such as at schools, commercial areas, and
parks. Trail access points should include signage identifying the trail
and may include a map and drinking water. These access points serve
to encourage neighborhood and local pedestrian and bicycle access to
the trail system. They provide minimal amenities, most importantly trail
system signs. They should be located at approximately one quarter -
mile intervals along corridors, particularly along regional trail routes
or other routes with large concentrations of uses. Entry nodes typically
do not include parking facilities but could have a few standard size
spaces depending on needs and circumstances.

standardizing regional trail design elements, based on the concerns of
safety, convenience, aesthetic experience, and economical maintenance.
Some King County regional trails see as many as 2,000 users a day. As
such, the regional trail standards are designed to accommodating a large

Project Prioritization
Methodology
Eighty projects were scored with prioritization criteria addressing five
categories: Connectivity and Accessibility, Safety and Trail Experience,
Equity, Economy and Community, and Construction and Implementation.
Each category was weighted with Connectivity and Accessibility and Safety
and Trail Experience weighted more highly, Equity weighted moderately,
and Economy and Community and Construction and Implementation
weighted lower.
For each category, indicators or variables were developed. For each
indicator, project evaluation criteria were developed, and each rated on
either a 3-part high, medium, or low range or a 5-part high, medium -high,
medium, medium -low, and low range. See Exhibit 5-20 and Appendix D
for detailed information.

Tiers & Results
Once scored, three tiers of projects were developed: Highest Priority, High
Priority, and Medium Priority. The City used two qualitative criteria in
addition to prioritization scores to develop the Highest Priority projects list
(Tier 1 ): partnership commitments and geographic equity. Thus, the top
scoring projects include the highest scoring projects, plus projects with
known commitments, and projects that are opportunistic, feasible in the
near term, enhance connectivity across planning areas, or assist with
geographic equity.
Since some projects had identical scores, there were 27 projects in Tier 1,
26 projects in Tier 2, and 27 projects in Tier 3.
The process is illustrated in Exhibit 5-21.

Project tiers are nearly equal in length, but Tier 1 projects emphasize
Shared Use Paths, and complete all Protected Bike Lanes. Striped Bike
Lanes are also increased. Implementation of Neighborhood Greenways is
initiated but is a smaller share than in later phases. Tier 2 continues to
advance Shared Use Paths, adds Striped Bike Lanes, and adds
Neighborhood Greenways, plus implements most Pedestrian Trails. Tier 3
completes the network with the emphasis on Neighborhood Greenways, as
well as Striped Bike Lanes, and Shared Use Paths. See Exhibit 5-22.

6 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
This chapter identifies actions the City can take to optimally implement the
goals, objectives, and projects of this plan. It also identifies topics meant
for further exploration.
MONITORING
The City intends to track its performance periodically to determine
progress on implementation of this plan. Potential monitoring strategies are
listed in Exhibit 6-1. Monitoring is recommended biennially in association
with updates to the City budget and capital improvement program.
Performance measurement is a useful strategy in requesting additional
funding and resources.
Exhibit 6-1. Potential Monitoring Measures and Targets
Connectivity & Accessibility Percentage of bicycle facility network completed within
quarter mile of schools and parks.
Safety & Trail Experience Percentage increase in LTS 1 or 2 network.
Equity Percentage of households within 1/4 mile of network
Percentage increase in network serving children, elderly,
households in poverty.
Economy & Community Percentage increase in access to high density residential or
commercial zones, transit, or services.
Percentage progress on Tier 1 Projects.
Construction & Implementation Projects programed and completed in six -year CIP.
Source: City of Renton, 2018.
PHASING
Given local conditions on each route and available funding, Renton may
phase improvements and consider alternative trail and bicycle facility
types and cross sections. At the project design level, each project will be
reassessed to determine the appropriateness of the suggested
JANUARY 2019
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
improvements, and to determine the available right-of-way, etc. When a
project is in the development phase, a topographic and right-of-way
survey will provide the first clear picture of the actual conditions of the
route, and it may be necessary to implement a different design solution or
combination of design solutions than are shown in this plan. In addition,
there may be development of other capital projects or changes in funding
strategies that dictate a different cross section or facility classification than
the one currently identified.
PARTNERSHIP & FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
Partnerships
The City's trail and bicycle system is an integral part of the county and
state transportation and park system. Key regional and state partners
include:
■ Cities of Newcastle, Issaquah, Kent, Tukwila, and others
■ King County Parks
■ King County Metro
■ Renton, Issaquah, and Kent School Districts
■ Sound Transit
■ Washington State Department of Transportation
The City has planned in partnership with these agencies to develop this
plan, and these partners can advance implementation of this system
through joint design, funding, and coordination.
The City seeks to work with additional partners, such as Seattle -King
County Public Health which is advancing a healthy communities program,
and the Puget Sound Regional Council with a Regional Open Space
Strategy.
Funding
The City of Renton includes non -motorized capital investments in the annual
Six -Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The TIP is adopted
annually by the City Council. The 2019-2024 TIP has programmed funding
- JANUARY 2019
•' -- IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
to implement some of the projects identified in the Trail and Bicycle Master
Plan:
■ $1,450,000 Walkway program.
■ $1,850,000 Intersection Safety & Mobility Program.
■ Project level implementation of pedestrian and bicycle routes per this
plan (e.g. Lake Washington Loop Trail).
The funding can be used for planning, design, and construction phases of
the projects as well as for local matches for state and federal grants.
Although it may not be the primary purpose of a particular project or
program, many TIP projects have the potential to assist in implementing
projects within the Trails and Bicycle Master Plan.
The Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) provides
matching grants for trail acquisition and development and is open to local
and state agencies. Grant applications are received on even calendar
years. Many funds require a comprehensive plan, such as this master plan.
Funds that are open to local agencies include:
■ Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account (ALEA) - Provides funding to
buy, protect, and restore aquatic lands habitat and to provide public
access to the waterfront. Projects must be associated with navigable
waters of the state.
■ Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) - State Program.
Provides funding to buy or develop public outdoor recreation areas
and facilities. Grants support both acquisition and development of
active and passive recreation areas and conservation lands. Public use
is required.
■ Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) - Outdoor Recreation
Legacy Partnership Program. Provides funding to buy or develop
public outdoor recreation areas and facilities in, or serving, urban
areas with 50,000 or more people. Grants support both acquisition
and development of active and passive recreation areas and
conservation lands. Public use is required.
■ Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program, Trails Category
(WWRP) - Provides funding to acquire, develop, or renovate
pedestrian, equestrian, bicycle, or cross-country ski trails. Program is
for non -motorized trails that provide connections to neighborhoods,
communities, or regional trails.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
In 2007, King County voters approved Proposition 2, which included
expanding the regional trail system over a six -year period, with the last
distribution to cities ending in 2013. In 2013, King County voters approved
a second, six -year levy (Proposition 1 ) which provides for trail acquisition
and development; the last distribution will be in 2019. King County is
considering placing a third levy on the ballot for voters to approve in
2019 which could also be used for trail acquisition and development.
REQUIREMENTS & INCENTIVES
Implementing Standards at Time of Development
The City has enacted ordinances that give it authority to require
developers to implement the trail and bicycle cross sections and projects in
this plan.
■ Street Frontage and Off -site Street Improvements (RMC 4-6-060): To
implement trail and bicycle standards, the City can require that
facilities that are within the right of way are implemented with street
frontage improvements consistent with the standards in this plan and
the City's development regulations pertaining to streets. When offsite
improvements are required to support new development, the City can
require implementation of pedestrian and bicycle improvements as
part of its street standards.
■ Shoreline Public Access Requirements (RMC 4-3-090): The Shoreline
Master Program also requires shoreline public access when demand is
created and is another regulatory program that can advance trails in
shoreline jurisdiction.
In the near -term, the City can amend its environmental review procedures
(RMC 4-9-070) to include this plan in its SEPA Substantive Authority, and
development that would impact the trail and bicycle system could be
conditioned to mitigate impacts, such as implementing improvements that
serve as mitigation. The City already adopts its Comprehensive Plan,
Transportation Improvement Program, and Parks, Recreational, Natural
Areas (PRNA) Plan, and this Trails and Bicycle Master Plan can be similarly
included.
The City can also adopt regulations that require trail easements when a
development is located within an area identified for a local or regional
trail system in this plan.

�' -- IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
Incentives
There are two types of incentives relevant to this plan:
■ Incentives for Individuals: The City can continue to require commute trip
reduction programs by large employers, who can incentivize their
employees to use non -motorized forms of commuting or transit. The
City can also support and encourage federal and state tax incentives
or subsidies to encourage bike and transit commuting.
■ The City can provide development incentives when amenities for transit
users, bicyclists, and pedestrians are included and being implemented.
Where improvements are not required for new development, but
extension of trail or bike facilities is planned, the City could incentivize
voluntary trail and bicycle project implementation such as through
density or height bonuses for new development or allowing onsite
density transfer from trail corridors to other developable parts of the
site.
Fee in Lieu
The City could allow or require development to provide trail or bicycle
facility improvements or pay a fee in lieu when it is not in the City's interest
to have the improvement installed at the time of permit. This may occur
when the expected improvement is a short segment of a longer trail
improvement and the work should be done all at once. The City allows a
fee in lieu of required street improvements in RMC 4-9-060.
E-bike & Motorized Foot Scooters
Electric bikes and motorized foot scooters are finding popularity in major
cities across the country. These types of vehicles increase more use of trails
and bicycle facilities because they assist with speed and sloped terrain.
The State regulates motorized foot scooters and local communities may
pass their own regulations.
A motorized foot scooter is a device with no more than two 7 fl-
inch or smaller diameter wheels that has handlebars, is designed
to be stood or sat upon by the operator, and is powered by an
internal combustion engine or electric motor that is capable of
propelling the device with or without human propulsion.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN • CITY OF RENTON
The City restricts motorized foot scooters in any park, trail, or sidewalk, or
on streets with a maximum speed limit of 25 miles per hour, or any corridor
marked "No non -motorized vehicles."
Recently, the State passed SB 6434 in 2018 regulating different types of
electric bikes and where they may be allowed on bike lanes or trails.
Similar to Motorized Foot Scooters, the City could determine how to
regulate E-Bikes as allowed under State law.
COMMUNITY EDUCATION & PROMOTION
Events & Promotion
Renton can promote awareness of the trail and bicycle system by
advertising its system in its recreation program, city newsletter, online, and
elsewhere. The City can also continue providing online or print maps and
other materials.
The City could increase recreation and community events in association with
trails and bicycle facilities including fun runs, races, and other activities to
promote awareness and use of the system and promote health and fitness.
The City could also support guided walking and biking tours illustrating key
routes and how to access key destinations. Guides could be volunteers.
The City can work in partnership with King County Metro on expanding its
transit to trail program that was launched in the Issaquah Alps area.
Safety & Awareness
Trail and bicycle safety has many facets. Potential actions to increase
safety include:
■ The City can provide user safety and etiquette tips and rules on how
pedestrians and bicyclists share facilities.
■ The City can advertise and support other entities who are providing
safety and awareness programs such as the School District.
■ The City can implement design standards that promote crime
prevention through environmental design that influence landscaping,
lighting, and location of facilities.

FUTURE RECOMMENDATIONS
Incorporate Trails and Bicycle Master Plan in Citywide
Comprehensive Plan
The City references the Trails and Bicycle Master Plan in the Transportation
Element. The Comprehensive Plan could be updated to reflect the 2019
plan vision, goals, and policies.
Explorations in Multimodal Transportation Levels of Service
The City's Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element identifies a
multimodal level of service addressing person trips by motor vehicles,
transit, and non -motorized (bicycle and pedestrian) modes. Person trips are
the number of persons making the same trip in the same mode of travel.
Using person trips provides a common metric for use in concurrency and
also impact or mitigation fees.
Policy T-48: A. Citywide Person Trips: Based on the City's land
use and growth strategy, establish a citywide level of person
trips by mode, and support each mode with capital
improvements and programs. The general mode categories
include: motor vehicle trips, transit trips, and non -motorized
trips.
The City has established a person trip bank for motor vehicle trips. The City
could establish a bank of non -motorized person trips and link it to capital
improvements.
Utilize Prioritization Criteria for Sidewalk Plan
The City completed a Comprehensive Walkway Study in 2008 that
prioritized needed sidewalk projects. Feedback through the community
outreach included an emphasis on sidewalks and walkways. The City could
incorporate the prioritization methods used in this plan in updating the
Comprehensive Walkway Study for complete network integration.

Vision Zero
Started in Sweden in the 1990s, Vision Zero is an approach to traffic
safety for all users that sets a goal of zero traffic deaths or severe injuries
through holistic, integrated action strategies. As an approach, Vision Zero
includes several fundamental principles that differentiate it from traditional
approaches to road safety.
The City can consider whether and how to implement a Vision Zero
program. Implementing Vision Zero typically involves the following
practices:
■ Build and sustain leadership, collaboration, and accountability: In
addition to strong and visible commitment from the Mayor and Council,
large-scale, cross -sector collaboration that includes transportation,
public health, law enforcement, policy makers, elected officials, and
community members is key to successful implementation.
■ Collect, analyze, and use data: Data should drive all stages of Vision
Zero planning, from strategy development, to ongoing management,
evaluation, and predictive planning. Collecting, analyzing, and using
data will need coordination across city departments. Local knowledge
and community input are also important to supplement quantitative
data.
■ Prioritize equity and engagement. Vision Zero planning should include
effective, meaningful community dialogue to gather input from diverse
voices on the issue of road safety.
■ Lead with roadway design that prioritizes safety.
■ Manage speed to safe levels. This is a central tenet of Vision Zero and
includes strategies such as designing roads for lower speeds, setting
and communicating safe speed limits, and enforcing these limits.
■ Maximize technology advances, but don't overlook low -tech solutions.
Over the longer term, innovation in automated vehicles and other
technologies offer opportunities for improvements in safety. In the
shorter term, relatively inexpensive, low -tech improvements such as the
addition of side guards, cameras, and mirrors on large vehicles and
trucks (since large vehicles are disproportionately involved in crashes)
can save lives.
- - - JANUARY 2019
•' -- IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
CITY OF RENTON • RENTON TRAILS AND BICYCLE MASTER PLAN
A foundational element to implement the Vision Zero approach is the
creation of a Vision Zero Action Plan that operationalizes these principles.
The Action Plan includes broad community input and lays out specific
measurable action steps, priorities, with clear timelines for implementation.
Increase Local Funding for Non -Motorized Facilities
The City could pursue other funding sources dedicated to the provision of
trails and bicycle facilities. One such source is to collect mitigation fees
from new development that creates a demand for service, requiring
mitigation to reduce adverse impacts on the built environment. The City
could condition development if it has identified impacts in environmental
documents prepared under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
Impacts could be determined by measuring the number of person trips that
development generates on bicycle and pedestrian facilities. To implement
the SEPA mitigation fee, the City could develop and publish a study of
expected demand and person trip rates, and then apply it to development
subject to SEPA. Fees that are collected must be expended within 5 years
of receipt.

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
Introduction
Plan development included an extensive outreach process, with an online survey, an interactive mapping
activity, and three in -person community open houses. Additional meetings were organized with a technical
advisory committee, and with regional stakeholders. A broad range of input was gathered from these
engagement activities. Comments from citizens and stakeholders are organized below. Clear themes
relevant to the vision emerged from this feedback and are synthesized below as well.
Top Outreach Takeaways
1. Recreation -based walking and biking is still a primary purpose. Commuting by bike and on foot is
also occurring and could be encouraged more.
2. Respondents preferred to walk shorter distances, around their neighborhoods, mainly for
recreation. Walking was not seen as a primary mode of transportation.
3. Respondents reported longer and more frequent bicycle trips. Bicyclists bike within and beyond
their neighborhood to trails, work places or school, or civic or recreation facilities.
4. Respondents preferred to walk and bike on formal facilities such as sidewalks, streets, or paved
trails.
5. The Cedar River Trail is the most heavily used trail. Not surprisingly, given its central location within
the city and its length, respondents cited the Cedar River Trail as the most used non -motorized trail.
Trails along other riparian corridors, such as the Springbrook Creek, Honey Creek, and May Creek
trails were less frequently used.
6. Addressing pedestrian and bicyclist comfort is necessary to encourage more travel and recreation
by foot or bike Discontinuous or missing sidewalks, walking on roads with fast moving traffic, and
difficulty crossing came up as top barriers to walking. Barriers to biking focused on the absence of
biking facilities (e.g. paved shoulders, bike lanes, shared use paths), dangerous crossings and streets
with fast moving cars. The lack of wayfinding was also cited as a potential barrier.
7. Connection to transit is an important need. Transit is often accessed by walking and biking and
connections to current and future transit is a key link.
8. Mountain biking and other more unique forms of bicycling are pursued by about a quarter of survey
respondents, who enjoy riding along lakes, streams, and rivers.
9. Equestrian use was not an identified need. The survey included questions on horseback riding, but
no respondents offered input.
Potential Themes
Key themes emerged from the broad input received through outreach activities. Themes and
representative quotes are shown in the following matrix:

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
Exhibit 1. Outreach Themes Table
Theme Representative Quote
Safety. ........................
Safety is a high priority theme that benefits users
across the board and encourages less experienced
riders to use the trail network. The network should be
designed to minimize intermodal conflicts, street
crossings, and travel along high speed, high traffic
streets. In addition to design features, education and
enforcement can improve safety.
Connectivity
Connectivity to regional and local destinations such
as job centers, entertainment centers and transit, as
well within neighborhoods, is an important feature of
the network.
Continuity
Continuity in the network enables longer trips that
are useful for commuting or active recreation and a
fluid experience.
Comfort and Inclusivity
This refers to the diversity of experiences the network
will enable, reaching across a broad range of
activities, ages, and abilities.
"I am not willing to walk or ride a bike on the shoulder of
a busy or slightly busy road, regardless of whether or not
the shoulder is paved, because it is extremely dangerous
due to vehicle driver distractions (talking and texting on
phone)."
"Major intersections can be nerve-racking for bicyclists."
"There is a lack of bike paths on the major roads that lead
to the most popular destinations. I prefer to bike, but it
takes longer than necessary because I find myself having
to take roundabout ways in order to stay safe."
"I would love to see our bike trails connect all around
Seattle like the Sammamish Trail which connects to the
Burke -Gilman, then down and around to the waterfront,
to Alki, then back to Renton."
"It is too difficult, and dangerous, to bicycle through
Renton to connect to major trails leading north, south, and
east (Lake Washington Trail, Rainer Ave, Green River
Trail, Cedar River Trail."
"The bike trail connection isn't the greatest when riding
around Lake Washington and along 405.With the amount
of hotels Ishopping 1parks in the area in North Renton it
would be great to improve those connections to existing
trails to the north for daily and recreational use."
"I love the Cedar River Trail and ride it often from
downtown Renton to Maple Valley. However wish it were
paved beyond Maple Valley - a road bike doesn't
navigate well on gravel."
"1 commute from the Highlands to Kirkland. I'm an
advanced and confident road rider. Some wonderful
improvements have been made to signage and other
aspects of driving, but there is no safe way to go up to
the Highlands from down in the valley by bike. I tend to
go all the way around to Kennydale and climb that big hill
to come back to the Highlands rather than risk Sunset."
"1 think that all trails, walkways, paths, etc. should be
accessible to ALL."
"1 walk for health. I sold my bicycle a few years ago, and
have never felt a need to get another one. I am retired, so
do not need daily transportation."
"I want to bike and walk ... my car trips kill me literally and
keep me isolated. I want an outdoor vibrant community."

Theme
Well -Maintained
Trails wear out with time and need sufficient
resources to conduct regular maintenance to offer a
predictable, consistent experience for all users.
Wayfinding and Awareness
A comprehensive network of wayfinding signage
elements tailored for walking and bicycling allows
residents to easily navigate the network and make
non -motorized and multi -modal trips.
Innovative and Flexible
Trail design optimizes for successful sharing of the
network. Soft surface trails are a desired alternative
to paved trails.

Respondents are more able-bodied than Census reports for the city. The share of Questionnaire
respondents with children is similar to Census reports for Renton.
■ Questionnaire respondents' percentage with limited mobility 4%, less than Census reports for city
residents identifying an ambulatory disability at 6% (ACS 1 -Year 2016).
■ Households with children under 18 years that walk: 55 of 181 respondents or about 30%. Most
respondents' children walk around the neighborhood (87.9%), to or along a trail (60.3%), to a
park/library/public place (48.3%), and to school (24.5%), or other destinations (12.1 %).
■ The share of respondents with children that walk is similar to the share of City households with one or
more persons under 18 at 29.6% (ACS 1-Year 2016) though the Census does not track how many
children walk.
Purpose and Frequency
Walking, running, and biking activities tend to be more for recreation purposes rather than for
transportation. Most respondents walk at least 2 times per week or more, and bike 1 day per week or
less.

■ Questionnaire commuters that bike daily 9%, greater than Census reports for city residents at 0.1 %.
WherelDestinations
Most respondents walk or bike around their neighborhood or to a public facility. In the case of bicyclists,
they also frequently use trails.

As shown above in Exhibit 3, 88.5% of the Renton Questionnaire respondents walk around the
neighborhood. This is consistent with findings in the 2017 State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation
Planning (SCORP) document. The SCORP considers participation in recreation activities across the state
and in different regions. The report found the participation rates for walking was 94% statewide. Across
different ages, races, or incomes, the top recreation activity was consistently walking in a park or trail
setting. About 89% of participants in the Seattle -King region participated in walking in a park or trail
setting. Most participation locations occurred in a person's yard or neighborhood.
Renton's Questionnaire respondents have a higher rate of biking with up to 81.1 % biking on a trail and
80.2% biking around the neighborhood. In the SCORP, rates were 28% for biking mostly on streets and
roads.
The first and last mile problem, one of the most complex challenges for public transit, refers to the
beginning and end of a trip primarily made by public transit. Questionnaire responses indicate that
:III January 2019 Renton I Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan Public Outreach Results & Themes 5
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
residents use bicycles or walk to make short, local trips typically associated with the first and last mile to
or from the destination. Improving walking and biking infrastructure to appeal to a broad and diverse
range of people can help address the first and last mile problem and thereby make it easier for more
people to access transit.
Areas with larger proportions of the elderly, the young, low-income individuals, and households without
access to a car also benefit from improvements to non -motorized travel, since these population groups
are often considered transit dependent.
Facilities Used
While respondents visited a wide number of Renton park, recreation, and civic facilities, the most well
visited ones were along Lake Washington and the Cedar River.

Most respondents use the Cedar River Trail (82.6%, 100, Walk; 97.6% of Bicyclists, 81), and to a lesser
extent May Creek and Springbrook Trails.
Children walk to a large list of local schools (1 2 schools), and to a lesser extent bike to them (6 schools).
The School District identifies a walkshed for each school. Children also walk to a similar list of parks and
facilities as for adults overall, and to shopping and other locations.
The City's 2008 Sidewalk Assessment and approach to Safe Routes to Schools should be considered.
Traffic Stress
A May 2012 study by Mekuria and Furth, Mineta Transportation Institute', found that "[f]or a bicycling
network to attract the widest possible segment of the population, its most fundamental attribute should be
low -stress connectivity, that is, providing routes between people's origins and destinations that do not
require cyclists to use links that exceed their tolerance for traffic stress, and that do not involve an undue
level of detour."
Renton Questionnaire respondents found nearly 25% were confident on any road, about 50% were
comfortable with roads having some traffic but prefer those with wide shoulders or lanes or trails, and
over 20% were concerned about traffic and other factors.

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
This level of comfort or discomfort of Renton respondents based on traffic and road conditions is similar
to a study of physiological reactions to different road conditions in Portland, Oregon:
Results show that on the same route: (a) stress levels during peak -hour traffic are higher
than during off-peak traffic; (b) signalized intersections are hotspots for cyclists' stress;
and (c) average stress levels on on -street facilities are higher than on off-street facilities.
Statistical tests clearly show that separated facilities are associated with lower stress levels
than other types of facilities. (Caviedes, 2016)

An interactive online map was open to public input from June 10, 2017 to August 31, 2017. The
interactive map site had 1,380-page views and 342 data points. Participants could identify areas where
they walked or biked, and problem areas. Maps and summaries of comments follow.
Walking
Based on input walk problems included lack of sidewalks and connections as well as traffic, speeding,
and other dangerous conditions. Most pedestrian problem spots were identified in the East Plateau, North
Highlands, and mid-Kennydale Planning Areas.

Biking
Community comments on biking problem spots were similar to comments about walking.
Biking problems related to concerns about travel lanes and trails, and traffic and safety conditions.
Based on comments, most bike problem spots follow future alignments of the regional trail system.

Comments addressed different connections or safety concerns such as:
■ Add bike trail between Cedar & Green river trails.
■ Need a safe bike route connecting to Skyway and West Hill.
■ Sunset Blvd provides the best grade for connectivity with Highlands, needs bike lanes.
■ Best bike route up Benson Hill is not clear. Probably old Benson Rd, but need bike lanes to continue.
Consider road diet south of Puget.
■ Very narrow shoulder, difficult connection to Jones Road from Cedar River Trail.
■ Cars using wrong lane, conflicting with NB left turning bikes and cars. (Renton/Kent border)
■ 1 ride around this area as the bridge is too narrow and unsafe, I have nearly crashed many times on
this bridge. (Renton/Tukwila Border)

4. KING COUNTY MEETINGS
Coordination with King County Parks and Recreation Division, Capital Projects Program, and
Governmental Relations was essential to plan development with the convergence of four regional trails
within Renton's Urban Growth Area: The Cedar River Trail (CR), Eastside Rail Corridor (ERC), Lake to
Sound Trail (M), and the Lake Washington Loop Trail.
ai11January 2019 Renton I Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan Public Outreach Results & Themes 15
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
The purpose of the meetings was to collaborate with King County representatives on possible and preferred
routing for the (Eastside Rail Corridor, Lake To Sound, and Cedar River) regional trails through the City of Renton,
discuss alternative facility types for these corridors, update on the status of the Civic Core planning effort and
review proposed cross sections for the corridors in that plan, and review the status of other regional
trails/routes (Soon Creek, Lake Washington Loop). Two meetings were held to identify and agree upon the
alignment and facility designations) for the regional trails. Detailed meeting summaries, route concepts, and
cross -sections are included as an appendix to the Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan. Highlights are
provided below.
■ King County representatives were supportive of strong connections among the regional trails in the
downtown core. There was also support for the alternative facility standard of protected bike lanes
and sidewalks. There was consensus among the City and King County representatives on the
preferred alignment of the ERC, L25, and CR trails through Renton.
■ King County representatives described the example of successful partnerships with the business
community (Microsoft, Google, Swedish and others) and stakeholders along the ERC. Potential
partners for the Plan include both employers and community organizations:
13 Eastside Greenway Alliance
13 Boeing
13 Paccar
El Hyatt
El Small technology companies new to the city
El Rotary Club
El Chamber of Commerce
■ Ferry (foot service) across Lake Washington was discussed as a potential complement to non -
motorized connections.
■ King County continues to work on the challenges along the BNSF rail corridor pertinent securing to
leases from BNSF for the Lake to Sound Trail and extending the ERC adjacent to Coulon Park within
BNSF right of way.
■ King County representatives emphasized the importance of identifying and enhancing the connection
from regional trails to the new Transit Center on Grady Way. King County representatives
encouraged connecting the Burnett Trail to the relocated Transit Center.
■ King County representatives were in general agreement with the projects identified in the
preliminary list.
5. TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEETINGS
Community members volunteered to participate in the Technical Advisory Committee for this plan which
included additional background and educational discussions to provide feedback for plan development.
■ Important considerations included:
11 The importance of connecting regional trails
ai11January 2019 Renton I Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan Public Outreach Results & Themes 16
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
11 The importance of the transit center as a destination
Recognition that trail users are not as aware of traffic control devices like Rectangular Rapid
Flash Beacons (RRFB) or C-curbs; this lack of awareness should be addressed in design options
Cost considerations, and related "low hanging fruit" or easy wins are important to elevate as
criteria
■ The following trouble spots were identified primarily about bicycling except where noted:
° Near Dimmitt Middle School the location of a pedestrian -vehicle crash
11 Crossing Sunset Blvd. near Harrington
El NE Park Drive Freeway ramps
El Gate on Houser Way at Kenworth
11 NE 3rd street for bikes
° Connection on Factory Ave.
° Rainier Ave. and Hardy Ave.
■ The following barriers were identified:
13 Lack of comfort in high speed/volume conditions
13 Lack of wayfinding
■ Questions focused on:
Alignment with regional plans and comparison of the proposed network with other agency and
city plans from entities such as the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC), King County, Seattle,
Kent, Tukwila, and Newcastle.
° Connection of Honey Creek path alignment to Sunset Blvd. and May Creek Trail
° Connection of Thunder Hills Creek Trail to Cedar Avenue S. and Grant Avenue S.
° Opportunities for public to provide input on an ongoing basis after the planning process is
complete
■ TAC members were in agreement with the projects identified in the preliminary list and the
conceptual plans for intersections.
Community Walking and Biking Potential
A nationwide survey of sports and leisure preferences was conducted by GfK MRI in a nationally
representative survey of U.S. households, and ESRI, a geospatial products company, has developed an
analysis tool that compares the demographics of a community (e.g. City of Renton) to the relative
likelihood that that community would have a greater likelihood to participate in the activity compared to
the national average. A market potential index (MPI) of greater than 100 shows a greater likelihood
than average to participate and an index of less than 100 shows a lesser likelihood.

Purpose
The purpose of this meeting was to collaborate with King County representatives on possible
and preferred routing for the (Eastside Rail Corridor, Lake To Sound, and Cedar River) regional
trails through the City of Renton, discuss alternative facility types for these corridors, update on
the status of the Civic Core planning effort and review proposed cross sections for the corridors

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
in that plan, and review the status of other regional trails/routes (Soos Creek, Lake Washington
Loop). This is the first of two planned meetings, with the expectation there will be resolution on
the alignment and facility designation for the regional trails by the end of the second meeting.
Discussion
DESIGN CONCEPT
• After introductions, and statement of purpose and goals, MacLeod Reckord presented the
preferred and alternative alignments for the Eastside Rail Corridor (ERC), Lake to Sound
(LTS), and Cedar River (CR) Trails through the City. Rationale was given for selection of the
preferred route and there was general consensus on those routes early in the meeting.
• The range of facility types for regional trails was presented by MacLeod Reckord and
discussed. It was noted the KC standard of shared use path with gravel shoulders would not
be appropriate in the urban segments of the corridors, and alternative standards showing a
protected bike lane and sidewalk were discussed.
• KC representatives stated support not only for making strong connections through the
downtown core with the regional trail alignment, but also for alternative facility standards
such as the protected bike lane and sidewalk cross section.
SUPPORT FOR THE VISION
• KC described the very successful partnerships that are being established with the business
community and stakeholders along the ERC (Microsoft, REI, Google, Swedish named)
through Redmond, Kirkland, Bellevue, and encouraged Renton to engage with the Eastside
Greenway Alliance to work with third parties who could provide additional support for
development of these trail corridors. KC offered to provide points of contact. Renton
businesses mentioned as being important stakeholders in these discussions included
Boeing, Paccar, Hyatt, and numerous smaller (new) tech companies (5300jobs) coming into
the area.
• The Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce were identified as potential stakeholders
who could provide plan support and engage with businesses.
• Ferry (foot) service to Lake Washington is in discussion and would be another benefit
supporting improvements to the non -motorized system in the vicinity of the lake.
• KC recommended the Redmond Central Connector powerpoint presentation as a good
visual and marketing tool for promoting and securing businesses/stakeholders to support
the concept of trail construction through the business core.
• Pop-up events, simulations, visuals can be more compelling than simple identification of
'projects'. The prospect of a fuselage chugging through town on a flatbed was noted as
highly unique and extraordinary by visitors (less so by locals); the idea of locating bleachers
and posting schedules for its arrival was kicked around and not dismissed entirely. The
overall message in this conversation was these are examples of some of the unique aspects
of Renton that should be embraced, marketed, and displayed.
2
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
BOEING
• Boeing has developed segments of trail along the future proposed ERC corridor but the
segments are private "behind the fence". Some opportunities to engage with Boeing to
encourage them to collaborate with King County and the City of Renton on a public trail
were identified:
o There are employee groups (trail advocates) that are supportive of public/regional trail
connections through this segment — identify and engage them.
o Boeing likely has trip reduction requirements that need to be met as well as a regional
trail facility in immediate proximity to their facility.
• City of Renton clarified that Boeing's requirement for providing public trail access on their
property is only a condition in the EIS once they are at full expansion.
BNSF
• The challenges along the BNSF corridor were discussed. KC had some success at one point
getting BNSF to talk about the option of extending the ERC trail in the BNSF corridor
adjacent to Coulon Park, but discussions ceased; since then there has been no response
from the railroad. The City of Renton has had similar challenges.
• In addition, KC has not yet obtained leases from BNSF for the Lake to Sound Trail connecting
Tukwila to Renton. It would be desirable to extend the Lake to Sound Trail along the BNSF
corridor to the east toward Rainier Avenue. Options discussed included approaching the
private property owners to the south of the BNSF ROW (many have loading zones, parking
areas in this area) to see if there is potential for a narrow area of acquisition. It was noted
that there are several sidings that the adjacent property owners don't want to lose because
they represent value or potential value to tenants.
• The City of Renton confirmed that railroad use is on the average of one train per day for
Boeing; Rabanco also uses the line as far as Hardie/Shattuck.
WSDOT, SOUND TRANSIT, OTHER
• There was discussion about the current status of the Transit Center funding, and the
importance of identifying and enhancing connections from the regional trail to the new
location at Grady Way.
• KC noted that Sound Transit is (fiscally) supportive with projects providing access within
mile of the station.
• KC cited working in partnership with Redmond to lobby Sound Transit on particular issues
related to ERC development/access. KC agreed to work with the City of Renton regarding
Sound Transit project advancement.
• The City of Renton noted that Sound Transit projects are opening up in 2024; future
projects included Bus Rapid Transit implementation and (WSDOT) Bellevue to Renton Bus
Rapid Transit development.
• KC noted the ERC to Ripley Lane connection will happen in conjunction with WSDOT
widening. KC will provide information to the City of Renton.
3
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
rl\/Ir rnRF
• Fehr and Peers provided background and input on the status of the Civic Core project,
specifically focusing on the corridors identified for regional trail connections. The Civic Core
process is moving ahead of the Trails Plan schedule, so it is imperative there is resolution on
these issues and agreement between the two plans.
• There was considerable discussion about the merits of the various cross sections and
alternative configurations along the "Burnett Trail" segment. Specifically where, and
whether transit and parking were to be provided; where the best location for raingardens
and tree planting would occur; sidewalk, parking, and travel lane widths.
• King County encouraged Renton to connect the Burnett Trail to the relocated Transit Center
at Grady Way.
• The City of Renton will provide Fehr and Peers with traffic count information in order to
more fully evaluate Burnett Avenue north of Second Avenue and south of Third Avenue to
5t" Street.
OTHER TRAIL CORRIDOR DESIGN ISSUES
• Some design concepts that will be considered along the Burnett Trail include:
o Reduction of travel lanes to 11'.
o Possible elimination of center turn lane between Second and Third.
o Configuring protected bike lane in a way that provides greater separation from
travel lanes.
o Ensuring walkway does not become 'cluttered', with effective width being
constrained, with utility poles, mailboxes, light poles, benches/amenities, hydrants,
etc. Provide adequate width and create pockets for these amenities/infrastructure.
o Relocation of play area to accommodate trail through park.
• Review opportunities for enhancing/celebrating the 3 nodes/points of the triangle where
trails converge.
• Identify and address other big challenge areas, one named in particular was the Logan and
Burnett intersection.
• The City of Renton noted there is potential for vacating parking on the south side of Houser
— it has been discussed at Council level.
• Be sure to include alternative alignments in preferred plan, as those routes may be used as
interim routes.
• The City of Renton will provide information being generated by Otak on the design of the
Logan and Airport Way intersection.
OTHER ISSUES
• King County noted that the Soos Creek Trail connections are not off the table, just lower on
the priority list for now.
• The City of Renton noted that the one Trail the public desires the most is completing the
Soos Creek Trail north of 192nd.
4
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
Next Steps:
The next meeting will include:
o Formalizing the preferred option for connecting the ERC, Lake to Sound, and Cedar River
Trail.
o Identifying alternative routes for each of the three regional trails.
o Identifying trail cross sections for varying segments of both the preferred and
alternative routes.
o Providing conceptual cross sections noting ROW width at strategic locations along the
alignment, for purposes of identifying critical challenges that may be to be addressed by
multiple parties.
o Identifying how both the Trails plan and the Civic Core plan will show corresponding
project improvements through the corridors identified for the regional trails.
The second coordination meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, October 24, 2017, from 9:OOam to
11:OOam at Renton City Hall.

Purpose
The purpose of this meeting was to reconvene with King County representatives to discuss and
resolve preferred routing for the (Eastside Rail Corridor, Lake to Sound, and Cedar River)
regional trails through the City of Renton, identify the most likely facility type for each of the
corridors identified in the route, discuss strategies for implementation, and provide an update

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
on the status of the Civic Core planning effort. This is the second of two planned meetings and
is expected to result in decisions that will be carried forward in the final recommendations
presented in the Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan Update.
Discussion
INTRODUCTION AND RECAP
• After introductions, MacLeod Reckord provided an overview of what had been discussed
and decided in the first meeting, held on September 22, 2017. Some discussion ensued
regarding the schedule for review/approval and adoption of the Civic Core Plan and the
importance of resolving solutions that would be consistent for both planning efforts.
Currently the three regional trails do not connect and stop at or near the downtown core
area.
• MacLeod Reckord provided an explanation of the Regional Trail alignment graphics, noting
the plan and sections identify two of the regional trail corridors — Lake to Sound Trail and
Eastside Rail Corridor. The network shows connection to the existing Cedar River Trail but
no extension of the Cedar River Trail was proposed.
• The graphics also show alternative alignments, but without corresponding sections
illustrating proposed facility types along those routes, the rationale being that the range of
possible options was so great as to be difficult to determine the best facility type for the
entire corridor (e.g.: was the alternative route a short-term or long-term option; would this
be an interim route or the final route; what would the funding source be; what other likely
development scenarios along the route would impact facility design; etc.)
• The trail alignments include sections defined by distinctive attributes. Each section provides
one or more options representing slightly different trail locations or optional facility types.
See the boards (attached) for additional information on challenges and benefits of each
option.
LAKE TO SOUND TRAIL
• SECTION 1—The western segment extending from the planned end of trail near Naches Ave
SW to Hardie Ave SW. The recommended alignment is on the south side of the rail lines,
with options to locate the trail high on the embankment (same elevation at the tracks and
between the main and spur lines), or low on the embankment (removing the spur line). An
optional alignment on the north side of the mainline is described. Major points of discussion
among the group:
o Whether the spur could in fact be vacated (need to coordinate with BNSF);
understanding the volume/frequency of use of spur line; whether Rabanco still uses
this line; and whether property acquisition (south) is possible if spur line cannot be
vacated.
o All options (n/s, high/low) may need to be put forth to BNSF for discussion and will
be included as a record of the process (appendix items).
o The new BNSF contact may be more receptive to discussion of a joint use of corridor.
There was a recommendation to convene a meeting with local BNSF
2
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
representative(s); King County would be the lead). A multi -jurisdictional approach
may be more effective with an appeal to changing community needs — more non -
motorized connectivity and increased rail/trail development nationwide.
o Businesses in this corridor include an auto dealership, a strip mall, light industrial, a
county health building, and office buildings. Security will continue to be a concern as
there are transients. King County indicated there may be a possibility of an
easement acquisition if businesses are willing.
o The option showing the trail between the main line and spur line was determined
most undesirable, as it would require numerous acute approaches to rail crossings
and would be well inside the set back/clearance zone defined by BNSF for both the
main and spur lines.
• SECTION 2 —The middle -west segment located between Hardie Ave SW and Rainier Ave S.
Recommended alignment is on the south side of the rail lines, again with options high on
the embankment or low on the embankment. Optional north side of mainline was also
considered. Major points of discussion included:
o Show all options (n/s, high/low) when in discussion with BNSF; Hardie Ave crossing
can be at grade; Rainier Ave S crossing would be better above grade.
• SECTION 3 —The middle east segment located between Rainier Ave S and Burnett Ave S.
Recommended alignment is on the south side with options high on the embankment or
located in the Houser Way ROW as a shared street. Major points of discussion included:
o High bank is preferred to maintain continuity to the west, especially if BNSF has
approved high bank alignment further west. The Houser Way ROW shared street
could be an inexpensive interim (or long term) solution.
o A Woonerf concept was well received by the North Riverside Drive residents along
the Cedar River Trail and may also be well received here.
• SECTION 4 — The Houser Street corridor
Recommended alignment is on the south side of the street, changing from shared use path
to pedestrian/protected bike lanes configuration due to significant reduction in available
space. Major points of discussion include:
o North vs. south for non -motorized improvements will be an issue questioned by
businesses along this segment and will require further evaluation of north vs south
with pros/cons; state rationale for choice.
o Some noted observations — south side leads directly to Cedar River Trail connection
and Tonkin Park is on the south side.
o There are concerns about the NACTO minimal width (8') shown for a 2-way
protected bike lane; consider leaving a 6' walk and dedicating 10' (with
lighting/amenities in this zone) for bikes.
o There was considerable discussion and a variety of opinions about how and whether
to delineate/separate uses to include providing a visual only barrier between
pedestrians and bikes; providing no distinction between bikes and pedestrian users
making it less like a bike facility; creating mixing zones at intersections; and
providing some type of vertical separation between bikes and the rail.
3
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
o A second option might include elimination of parking/vehicular. Eliminating parking
would need to be promoted by characterizing options for a more 'interesting and
attractive' street.
o The high crown of the street will impact the street cross section, curbs and drainage
as the rail segment is higher than the finish floor elevation of the adjacent
businesses. The current section as shown is not possible.
o Options for a connection to the Cedar River Trail were discussed and will be further
evaluated in the conceptual study for the intersections of the regional trails (in the
main body of the Trails Plan).
EAST SIDE RAIL CORRIDOR
• SECTION 1— N 61" Street to Park Avenue N
The recommended solution is unclear and dependent upon further discussions with Boeing
and having a better understanding of future road widening efforts. Major points of
discussion include:
o Limited space requires either construction outside existing ROW onto Boeing
property through acquisition or easements, or rechannelization of existing roadway
to accommodate a side path.
o If the trail is located outside the existing ROW high level discussions will be required
between the City and Boeing and in the future may involve the mayor and other
regional leaders to include King County. Renton will coordinate with King County
regarding this approach.
o Accommodating a facility inside the existing ROW is likely a non -starter, as City has
plans for lane expansion of Logan through this segment. Note: the existing ROW
width will not accommodate the lane expansion without additional ROW acquisition.
• SECTION 2 — Park Ave N to Garden Ave N
Recommended side path on west side, where adequate room exists without requiring
acquisition or making changes to existing roadway channelization. Major points of
discussion include:
o Logan/Park is already a level F intersection.
o Existing bike lanes on both sides of roadway could be eliminated with the addition of
side path on west side; question asked how bikes would access the landing from the
ERC — crossings would have to occur at Garden Ave N or Park Avenue N; it was
suggested that additional roadway width captured from dropping bike lanes could
go to boulevard planting.
CIVIC CORE PROJECT
There was some discussion about the proposals being considered for the Civic Core Project
("Burnett Trail" segment), with acknowledgement that there would be coordination on final
recommendations between the two projects. Discussion included:
o Burnett Trail connecting at Houser Way.
o Burnett Trail as the link to the relocated South Renton Transit Center
4
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
o Burnett Trail extending north to the Cedar River Trail and crossing at Logan Avenue
to the Lake Washington Loop Trail.
PRODUCT FOR FINAL REPORT
• Lake to Sound Trail Plan — show all discussed recommended alignments; redline alignment
as currently shown, green line low bank, yellow line north side to make options clear. Show
cross sections reflecting these options. Identify options that seem viable at this stage.
• Eastside Rail Corridor — show connections through the Civic Core planning area, with
reference to that planning effort.
• Show alternative alignments on the plan so as not to eliminate them from consideration if
preferred alignments cannot be achieved.
• State pros/cons of all options.
• These exhibits, including meeting notes, will be a standalone in the report appendix.
Next Steps:
• City/King County will continue to plan for discussions with BNSF and Boeing.
• Plans will be coordinated with those being developed for the Civic Core project.
• Cross sections will be further developed to reflect the additional options discussed for the
segments noted above. These cross sections and revised plans will be included in the
appendix of the final report.

C. PROJECT SHEETS
INTRODUCTION
The proposed trails and bicycle network comprises individual routes or segments that connect at
intersections to form the low stress network. Most of the routes follow streets and are within the
public right of way. Some existing and proposed segments are within private or quasi -public
property, such as utility company property, and require agreements and/or easements to be im-
plemented. Other network segments are within Renton Parks property.
Projects are defined as contiguous segments of a route serving a neighborhood, connecting im-
portant destinations, such as schools or transit stops, or completing gaps in regional trails. They
are generally scaled to implementable in one or two phases. Most projects have one contiguous
non -motorized facility type, but some have two or more facility types due to differing right of
way characteristics or property constraints.
The project sheets are arranged alphabetically.
CONCEPTUAL COST ESTIMATES
Project costs for bicycle and pedestrian facilities will vary greatly depending on right of way
characteristics, cost of materials, the specific facility design and scope of the improvements. When
available, an order of magnitude cost range is provided for each project.
EXISTING CROSS-SECTION
The existing cross-section description for each project includes the lane configuration, but not the
dimensions of the lanes or curb -to -curb distance. The methodology employed in this plan uses the
number of travel lanes as one of the factors that determines the level of traffic stress for a route.
Travel lane width can affect vehicle speeds, and thus the bicycle level of traffic stress, but was not
inventoried and is not documented on the project sheets. Cross-section information is for typical
street segments and does not take into account turn lanes and additional through lanes that often
occur at intersections.
SPEED LIMIT
Vehicle speeds are also one of the factors used to determine the existing level of traffic stress of
a route. Where relevant, existing posted speed limits are provided for each project.
FACILITY TYPES
A range of facility types to achieve a low -stress trails and bicycle network are proposed in this
plan. The facility types assigned to different projects are conceptual design guidelines and not
specific to the exact dimensions and condition of each right of way or easement. In some cases,
one or more alternate facility types are suggested that may provide more separation from traffic
and result in a safer, more comfortable facility. Additional feasibility studies will be required to
AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
verify the suitability of each facility prior to project implementation. These studies may address
property acquisition, roadway channelization or widening, and on -street parking modification,
among other issues.
Each facility type also has design variations that will need to be considered upon design devel-
opment of the project. For example, protected bike lanes can have a range of treatments for
the barrier separating the bicycle facility from the vehicle travel lanes, such as delineator posts,
planter boxes, or concrete barriers. Selection of a variant will generally depend on the safety,
cost, and return on investment of the project.
LOCATION MAPS
Each location map shows the proposed project segment or segments.

Project Prioritization
January 2019 j Renton Trails and Bicycle Master Plan
As part of outreach in fall 2017, the City of Renton drafted prioritization criteria with the community:
■ Safety and Trail Experience
■ Connectivity and Accessibility
■ Equity
■ Economy and Community
■ Construction and Implementation
Eighty projects were scored with prioritization criteria. Each category was weighted with Connectivity and
Accessibility and Safety and Trail Experience weighted more highly, Equity weighted moderately, and
Economy and Community and Construction and Implementation weighted lower.
For each category, indicators or variables were developed. For each indicator, project evaluation criteria
were developed, and each rated on either a 3-part high, medium, or low range or a 5-part high,
medium -high, medium, medium -low, and low range. The table below addresses the indicators and
variables. The Attachment provides more detail and definition of the scoring.
Exhibit 1. Prioritization Criteria and Indicators

Does the project increase the extent of the low stress (LTS 1 or 2) network?
Does the project enhance the natural environment experience?
Does the project address a known issue regarding user experience (intersections,
slope/terrain, lighting, wayfinding, formalize informal trail, etc.)?
Equity Does the project reach a large number of people and jobs?

Source: City of Renton, 2018; BERK, 2018.
Tiers & Results
Once scored, three tiers of projects were developed: Highest Priority, High Priority, and Medium Priority.
The City used two qualitative criteria in addition to prioritization scores to develop the Highest Priority
projects list (Tier 1 ): partnership commitments and geographic equity. Thus, the top scoring projects
include the highest scoring projects, plus projects with known commitments, and projects that are
opportunistic, feasible in the near term, enhance connectivity across planning areas, or assist with
geographic equity.
Since some projects had identical scores, there were 27 projects in Tier 1, 26 projects in Tier 2, and 27
projects in Tier 3.
Exhibit 2. Prioritization Process
Source: BERK, 2018.
Project tiers are nearly equal in length, but Tier 1 projects emphasize Shared Use Paths, and complete all
Protected Bike Lanes. Striped Bike Lanes are also increased. Implementation of Neighborhood
Greenways is initiated but is a smaller share than in later phases. Tier 2 continues to advance Shared Use
Paths, adds Striped Bike Lanes, and adds Neighborhood Greenways, plus implements most Pedestrian
Trails. Tier 3 completes the network with the emphasis on Neighborhood Greenways, as well as Striped
Bike Lanes, and Shared Use Paths.

course for Startup 425 for growth and success, including convening a
business advisory committee to identify unmet needs, revenue generating
activities and a sustainable operations model, to be followed by the
implementation of strategies generated by the plan in 2020. The plan may
result in a recommended new organizational structure. Regardless, the
Parties will review management of Startup 425 at the end of 2020 and may
determine to change out or amend the current management at that time.

existing term that it is withdrawing from the Startup 425 program. The Agreement
shall thereafter remain in effect as to the remaining Parties unless the Administrator at
its sole discretion determines the Startup 425 program is no longer viable without the
Party withdrawing in which event the Administrator will give notice of the date that it is
withdrawing from participation, and the Agreement will terminate on that date unless
the Parties select another Administrator before that date. No jointly -owned property
will be obtained under this Agreement, and any Party's real or personal property held
by the Startup 425 program will be returned to that Party upon the Party's withdrawal
