2-LOT Short Plat
4709 NE 24th Street, Renton, WA
PROJECT NARRATIVE
Project Name: 24th Street Short Plat; Area: 23,770 square feet; located at the southeast
corner of NE 24th Street and Duvall Avenue NE.
Permits required: Land Use Action permit, Utility permits, Building permit and Demolition Permit
Zoning designation: The property is zoned Single Family Residential R-4; surrounding property is
zoned R-4.
Current Use: Residential single family
Special features: No sensitive areas or special features are on or near the property.
Soil Type/Drainage: The soils on the property are defined as Recessional Outwash. This type of soil
allows for infiltration of developed runoff. The easterly portion of the subject property was not available
to soil examination due to an existing residence and compact gravel driveway/parking areas. The
existing drainage from the property infiltrates on site and does not appear to runoff. Future runoff from
the proposed development will either be collected and infiltrated/dispersed or discharged to a proposed
on-site public detention vault. The required roadway widening of NE 24th Street which triggered a
required storm control facility will be collected and discharge to the proposed public storm vault within
the project site.
Proposed use: The development proposal is to subdivide the existing parcel into two single family
residential lots. The existing residence located on proposed Lot 2 (an area of 10,286 SF) will eventually
be demolished. A new single-family residence will be constructed on Lot 1 with an area of 11,403 SF. The
resultant net density is 4.46 units/acre.
Access: Access to the project will be from NE 24th Street; no access will be from Duvall Avenue NE.
Proposed Offsite improvements: There are proposed frontage improvements along NE 24th Street
and re-constructing the curb return, landscaping strip, sidewalk, and ADA ramp at the intersection of NE
24th Street and Duvall Avenue NE. Public utilities currently exist within NE 24th Street; except sanitary
sewer. The proposed house on Lot 1 will connect to an existing 6” sewer stub off Duvall Ave. A new 6”
side sewer connected to the Duvall sewer main will be installed in a private sewer easement across Lot 1
to service Lot 2.
Total estimated cost / Fair market value: Estimated construction cost $200,000; Market value
(completed new home) $800K.
Estimated quantities: 120 cubic yards of cut material and 115 cubic yards of fill material will be
generated during the installation of the proposed frontage improvements.
Trees removed: There are 2 existing trees on subject property. One will be retained, and one will be
removed. The tree to removed is a 24” diameter Douglas Fir.
Dedication to the City: Frontage along NE 24th Street will be widened by 26.5’ to meet City standards.
A right-of-way dedication will be deeded to the City of Renton.
Job shacks, sales trailers, and model home: No proposal currently
Proposed Modifications: Road Modification requests to limit and define the widening of NE 24th
Street and retain the existing ROW width on Duvall Ave NE will be submitted with the Preliminary Short
Plat application.
