Michael,
Thank you for your comments, they have been added to the official file for consideration by the decision
maker. I have also added you as a party of record for this project.
The City is aware that traffic can be heavy through this intersection, which is, in part, why this proposed
short plat will not be directly accessing off of 156th Ave SE. As there is no direct access off of 156th Ave
SE, it is unlikely that the City would be able to require improvements at this intersection through the
subdivision process. However, I have copied Rohini Nair, the Development Engineer assigned to the
project so that she is aware of your comments.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks,
Jill Ding

I understand that there is an application for a development by 156th Ave. SE and SE 142nd Pl. This
intersection has bad traffic during the rush hour.
I would like to make the following suggestion: The conditions at the intersection need to be reviewed
by a traffic engineer and improvements made. At the least, there should be an additional lane on the
Southbound lane on 156th for right turning traffic, and a right green arrow added so the Southbound
traffic can turn freely while traffic coming up the hill on SE 142nd Pl has a green light. This would greatly
improve the flow of Southbound traffic.
