ARTICLE 8 COVENANT FOR ASSESSMENTS
8.1 Creation of Lien and Personal Obligation of Assessment
By acceptance of a deed or other instrument of conveyance, whether or not it shall be so
expressed in any such deed or other instrument, each Lot Owner is deemed to covenant and agree to
Page 9
W:\WPDOCS\90313\002\tmb6550.doc Declaration of Protective Covenants
04/24/07 for Wedgewood Lane
•
pay to the Association all common expenses assessed against said Owner's Lot by the Association.
Common expenses include, but are not limited to: (a) annual assessments or charges and (b) special
assessments. Said annual and special assessments, together with interest therein and costs of collection
thereof(including reasonable attorneys' fees whether or not suit is commenced), shall be a charge on
the Lot and shall be a continuing lien upon the Lot against which each such assessment is made. Each
such assessment, together with such interest and costs of collection, shall also be the personal obligation
of the Lot Owner owning the Lot when the assessment is due. There shall be no assessment on any Lot
until after the initial transfer of the Lot to a residential owner. The personal obligation for delinquent
assessments shall not pass to the Lot Owner's successors in title unless the lien for such delinquent
assessment has been properly recorded prior to transfer of title or unless expressly assumed by the
transferee. Provided, however, that in the case of a sale of any Lot which is charged with the payment
of an assessment or assessments payable in installments, the person or entity who is the owner
immediately prior to the date of any such sale, shall be personally liable only for the amount of the
installment due prior to said sale. The new owner shall be personally liable for installments which
become due on or after said sale.
8.2 Purpose of Assessments
The annual and special assessments levied by the Association shall be used exclusively for the
purpose of promoting the health, safety and welfare of the Members thereof, their guests and invitees,
and shall be used to improve, protect, operate and maintain the Common Areas and provide for
performance of the duties of the Board. All funds collected hereunder shall be expended for the
purposes designated herein.
8.3 Initial Assessment
At the time of the purchase of the Lot, each Lot Owner (except Developer and any Participating
Builder) shall pay the initial annual assessment. The initial annual assessment is the amount that the
Board has assessed against the Lot for the year in which the Lot is purchased, which amount shall be
prorated for any partial year. The initial annual assessment shall be collected by the escrow agent at
the closing of the purchase of the Lot.
8.4 Annual Assessments
Each year the Board shall assess each Lot Owner for an annual assessment in an amount which,
in the aggregate, is sufficient to meet the obligations of the Association. Commencing on January 1
following the termination of the Development Period and continuing each year thereafter, the annual
assessments shall not be increased by more than twenty-five percent (25%) without the approval of
seventy percent (70%) of the Members voting at a meeting duly called for such purpose.
Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above, (a) the Developer, its successors or assigns shall not be
liable for any fees or assessments assessed or due prior to the termination of the Development Period,
and (b) a Participating Builder shall not be liable for any fees or assessments except that a Participating
Builder shall be liable for assessments on any Lot upon the earlier of the termination of the
Development Period or one hundred twenty (120) days after the date that the Participating Builder has
completed construction of a residence upon such Lot and/or obtained a Certificate of Occupancy for
such Lot.

04/24/07 for Wedgewood Lane
8.5 Estimated Assessments
Within sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of each calendar year or such fiscal year as the
Board may adopt, the Board shall (a) estimate the annual assessments and special assessments for the
Lots to be paid during such year; (b) make provisions for creating, funding and maintaining reasonable
reserves for contingencies and operations, for maintenance repair, replacement and acquisition of
Common Areas and/or (c) take into account any expected income and any surplus available from the
prior year's operating fund. If the estimated cash requirement proves inadequate for any reason,
including nonpayment of any Lot Owner's assessment, a further assessment may be levied during that
fiscal year upon a majority vote of the Board.
Within thirty (30) days after the Board's adoption of any proposed regular or special budget of
the Association, the Board shall set a date for a meeting of the Lot Owners to consider ratification of
the budget. The Board shall give written notice of such meeting to all Lot Owners. Said written notice
shall include a summary of the proposed budget. The meeting date shall be not less than fourteen (14)
and not more than sixty (60) days after mailing of the notice and summary. Unless at the meeting the
Lot Owners holding a majority of the votes in the Association, in person or by proxy, reject the budget,
the budget shall be deemed ratified, whether or not a quorum is present. In the event the proposed
budget is rejected or the required notice is not given, the periodic budget last ratified by the Lot Owners
shall be continued until such time as the Lot Owners ratify a subsequent budget proposed by the Board.
8.6 Payment By Owners
Each Lot Owner shall be obligated to pay its annual and special assessments to the Treasurer of
the Association. Annual assessments shall be paid in full on or before the annual due date established
by the Board. Special assessments shall be paid annually or in equal monthly installments or before the
first day of each month during each year or at such time and in such other reasonable manner as the
Board designates.
8.7 Record of Assessments
The Association shall keep an accurate record of its receipt and expenditures in chronological
order. Such record shall specify and itemize the operation, maintenance, replacement and repair
expenses of the Common Area and any other expenses incurred. Records and vouchers authorizing
such payments shall be available for examination by the Lot Owners for any proper purpose at any
reasonable time.
8.8 Special Assessments
In addition to the annual assessments authorized above, the Association may levy in any fiscal
year as the Board designates, a special assessment for the purposes of defraying, in whole or in part,
the cost of any construction, reconstruction, repair, acquisition or replacement of a capital improvement
upon the Common Areas, including fixtures and personal property related thereto. No such special
assessment levied against all Lot Owners shall be in excess of Twenty-five Thousand Dollars
($25,000), except upon a majority vote of the Lot Owners in attendance at a meeting duly called for
said purposes, or in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) except upon a seventy
percent (70%) affirmative vote of the Lot Owners in attendance at a meeting duly called for said
purpose. The Board may also levy a special assessment against one (1) or more Lot Owners who are in
Page 11
W:\WPDOCS\90313\002\tmb6550.doc Declaration of Protective Covenants
04/24/07 for Wedgewood Lane
violation of ARTICLE 10 or ARTICLE 11 and/or any other provisions of this Declaration. The
limitation on maximum annual assessments and special assessments shall not apply to an assessment
levied against a Lot Owner which is imposed by the Board to reimburse the Association for costs
incurred in bringing the Member or the Lot owned by the Member into compliance with the provisions
of this Declaration or the Bylaws.
8.9 Uniform Rate of Assessment
Both annual and special assessments must be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots except for
assessments against a specific Lot Owner imposed by the Board to reimburse the Association for costs
incurred in bringing the Member or Lot into compliance with the provisions of this Declaration or the
Bylaws.
8.10 Default in Payment of Assessment—Remedies
If any assessment is not paid within thirty (30) days after it is first due and payable, such
assessment shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law, or if no limitation is imposed by law,
at eighteen percent (18%) per annum, from the date on which it was due until paid. In the event any
annual or special assessment remains delinquent for more than thirty (30) days, the Board may, upon
fifteen (15) days' written notice to the Lot Owner, accelerate and demand immediate payment of the
delinquent assessment, and any assessments which the Board reasonably determines will become due
during the next succeeding twelve (12) months. If the assessments and any accrued interest is not paid
in full within fifteen (15) days of the date of the notice, the Association may bring an action against the
person or entity personally obligated to pay such assessment and/or record a lien for the amount of the
assessments plus interest and attorney fees and costs incurred or estimated to be incurred in enforcing
the lien with the county in which the Lot is located. The lien may be foreclosed in the same manner as
a real property mortgage. Suit to recover a money judgment for unpaid assessments or charges can be
maintained against the Lot Owner in conjunction with or separate from foreclosure of the lien.
8.11 Foreclosure of Assessment Lien; Attorney's Fees and Costs
The Developer or Board may initiate action to foreclose the lien of any assessment on behalf of
the Association. In any action to foreclose a lien against the Lot for nonpayment of delinquent
assessments or charges, any judgment rendered against the Lot Owner in favor of the Association shall
include a reasonable sum for attorney fees and costs and expenses reasonably incurred in preparation
for and pursuit of such action in addition to taxable costs permitted by law. The Association shall be
entitled to reimbursement for all of its attorney fees whether or not suit is filed or prosecuted to
judgment, and whether said attorney fees are incurred in negotiation, arbitration, litigation, foreclosure
or collection action, bankruptcy or appeal.
8.12 Homestead Waiver
Each Lot Owner hereby waives, to the extent of any liens created pursuant to this Declaration,
the benefit of any homestead or exemption law in effect at the time any assessment becomes delinquent
or any lien is imposed pursuant to the terms of this Declaration, and hereby waives the right to claim
such homestead or exemption prior to payment in full of all delinquent assessments.

•
8.13 Curing of Default
If the Lot Owner cures the default prior to foreclosure of the lien of assessment, the Board shall
file and record a satisfaction and release of lien. The Board may assess a reasonable fee to cover the
cost of preparation and recording of said satisfaction of lien. Said amount shall be paid prior to the
filing of the satisfaction of lien. The notice of satisfaction of lien may be executed by any authorized
representative of the Board.
8.14 Continuing Liability for Assessments
No Lot Owner may exempt himself from his liability for annual or special assessments by
abandonment of his Lot or abandonment of the use of any Common Area.
8.15 Exempt Property
The following property is exempt from the assessments created herein: (a) all properties
dedicated to and accepted by local public authority; (b) all Common Areas; and (c) all properties the fee
title to which is retained by Developer, except that any land or improvements devoted to dwelling use
shall not be exempt from said assessment.
8.16 Rights of Board- Waiver of Lot Owners
Each Lot Owner hereby vests in and delegates to the Board or its duly authorized
representatives, the right and power to bring all actions at law, including lien foreclosures, whether
judicially or by power of sale or otherwise, against any Lot Owner for collection of the delinquent
assessments in accordance herewith. Each Lot Owner hereby expressly waives any objection to the
enforcement in accordance with this Declaration, of the obligation to pay annual and special
assessments as set forth herein.
8.17 Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages
The lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first
mortgage now or hereafter placed on any Lot. Sale or transfer pursuant to a decree of foreclosure of
any Lot which is subject to such first mortgage shall extinguish the lien of such assessments as to
payments which become due prior to such sale or transfer. No such sale or transfer shall relieve such
Lot Owner from personal liability for any assessment due nor shall any Lot be relieved from paying
assessments becoming due after foreclosure of the lien thereof.

Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000). Such assessment shall be payable to Developer, who may collect it
pursuant to ARTICLE 8. This assessment is intended to encourage the prompt development of

opportunities, and prevent the reduction in value of other Lots within Wedgewood Lane that will occur
if each Lot is not promptly developed. Developer will not review plans until such assessment is paid,

(2/3) vote of the Board, may notify said Lot Owner in writing of the maintenance required. If said
notice is delivered to the non-performing Lot Owner and the noted condition is not remedied after a
period of thirty (30) days, the Association, through its agents and employees, may enter upon said Lot
and provide such maintenance, and levy an assessment against the non-performing Lot Owner and his
Lot for the costs of providing said maintenance. Said assessment shall constitute a lien against the Lot
owned by the non-performing Lot Owner, and may be collected in the same manner as any other annual
or special assessment as hereinafter provided. If said assessment is not paid within thirty (30) days
after it is levied, the Association shall have all the remedies for collection as provided in ARTICLE 8
of this Declaration.

No noxious or offensive activities shall be carried on, in or upon any Lot, nor shall anything be
done therein which may be or become an annoyance or nuisance to other Lot Owners. No odors or
loud noises shall be permitted to arise or emit from any Lot or Common Area so as to render any such
property or portion thereof, or activity thereon, unsanitary, unsightly, offensive or detrimental to any
other property in the vicinity thereof or to the occupants of such property. No other nuisance or unsafe
or hazardous activity shall be permitted to exist or operate upon any Lot so as to be offensive or
detrimental to any other Lot or to its Owner or occupants. No firearms shall be discharged within the

commercial purpose. No animal shall be kept in number or under conditions reasonably objectionable
in a closely built-up residential community. All animals must be kept solely as domestic pets. Other

the right to exclude any animal from the Property even though it allows other animals to remain. When
not confined to the Owner's Lot, pets within the Property shall be leashed and accompanied by a person
responsible for cleaning up any animal waste. No animal shall be allowed to make an unreasonable
amount of noise or become a nuisance, as determined by the Board, at its sole discretion.

04/24/07 for Wedgewood Lane
,
the date on which notice is mailed to him by the Association informing him of such violation, then the
Association may have said materials removed and charge the expense of removal to said Lot Owner,
which shall be collectible as a special assessment. No outside incinerators are allowed on any Lot.
11.8 Unsightly Conditions
No Lot Owner shall permit any unsightly condition to exist on his Lot. Unsightly conditions
shall include, without limitation, litter, trash,junk or other debris; inappropriate, broken, damaged or
ugly furniture or plants; non-decorative gear, equipment, cans, bottles, ladders, trash barrels and other

An antenna, satellite dish or other device for the transmission or reception of television or radio
(including ham radio) signals, or any other similar device may be located, used or maintained outdoors
on any lot only if such device is screened from view from other Lots and the street. However, the
Committee shall approve installation of any such device one (1) meter or less in diameter without such
screening if the Lot Owner desiring to install such device demonstrates to the Committee that such
screening would unreasonably delay or prevent installation, maintenance, or use of such device,
unreasonably increase the cost of installation, maintenance or use of such device, or preclude reception
of an acceptable quality signal. The Committee shall review and grant an exception for such device on
a case-by-case basis upon written request by such Lot Owner desiring an exception.
11.10 Storage

said violation. If the Lot Owner or occupant fails to comply within said ten (10) day period, the Board,
Developer, Lot Owner or their authorized representative may take whatever actions are necessary to
bring the Lot Owner into compliance with these restrictions, including but not limited levying

condition immediately prior to such maintenance, repairs or replacement. Except for access easements,
prior to entering the easement area, the Lot Owner of the Benefited Property shall give the Lot
Owner(s) of the Burdened Property reasonable advance notice, unless immediate entry is necessary due
to emergent damage or threat to the Benefited and/or Burdened Property. So long as the Lot Owner of
the Burdened Property does not interfere with the purpose of the easement or applicable City of Renton
critical areas regulations, said Lot Owner shall have the exclusive right to make any and all decisions
regarding the use, landscaping, paving and/or other improvements within the easement area, and shall
pay all costs associated therewith. The Lot Owner of the Benefited Property shall hold the Lot Owner
of the Burdened Property harmless from any and all claims, losses, damages and causes of action
arising from or related to the use of the easement area by the Lot Owner of the Benefited Property.
12.1.3 Landscape, Fence and Entry Monument Easement. The Lot Owners of Lot 31
of Division 2, Lots 17, 18, 24 and 25 of Division 3 and Lots 1 and 2 of Division 4 hereby grant,

The cost of such construction, use, maintenance, repair, reconstruction and/or installation shall be paid
by the Association as a common expense. These easements shall run with the land and shall bind the
heirs, successors and assigns of the Owners of said Lots and the successors and assigns of the
Association.

drainage system, detention pond, water system, roads, open spaces, common landscaping, natural
growth protected areas, wetlands and all other Common Areas for which the Association is responsible.
No structure, planting or other material shall be placed or permitted to remain under, on or in any
easement which shall interfere with the use of the easement or which may damage or interfere with the
installation and maintenance of the roadway, sewer or utilities, or which may damage, interfere with or
change the direction or flow of drainage facilities within easements for installation and maintenance of
roadway, utilities, sewer and drainage facilities.
ARTICLE 13 GENERAL PROTECTIVE COVENANTS

Upon such approval, the Association shall file an amendment to this Declaration as may be necessary to
describe fully such combined or subdivided Lot or Lots or Property with the King County Recorder.
13.3 Leases
Any lease agreement between the Lot Owner and a lessee shall be in writing. Such lease
agreement shall provide that the terms of the lease shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of
this Declaration and the Bylaws, and that any failure by the lessee to comply with such terms shall be a
default under the lease. If a lease agreement fails to so provide, the lessee shall still be subject in all
respects to the provisions of this Declaration and the Bylaws by virtue of their being of record.
13.4 Mortgagee Protection
The following provisions shall apply to and benefit each holder of a mortgage or beneficiary of
a deed of trust given for the purpose of obtaining funds for the construction or purchase of a Building
on any Lot or the improvement of any Lot ("Mortgagee" herein), notwithstanding and prevailing over
any other provisions of this Declaration, the Bylaws, or any rules, regulations or management
agreements:
13.4.1 Before Possession. Prior to the time a Mortgagee is entitled to possession of a
Lot, Mortgagee shall not be personally liable for the payment of any assessment or charge, or for the
observance or performance of any covenant, restriction, regulation, rule, Bylaw or management
agreement, except for those matters which are enforceable by injunctive or other equitable relief, not
requiring the payment of money, as hereinafter provided.
13.4.2 During Foreclosure. During the pendency of any proceeding to foreclose said
mortgage or deed of trust, the Mortgagee may exercise any or all of the rights and privileges of the Lot
Owner of the mortgaged Lot, including, but not limited to, the right to vote as a Member of the
Association to the exclusion of the Lot Owner's exercise of such rights and privileges.
13.4.3 During Possession. At such time as said Mortgagee shall become entitled to
possession of the Lot, the Mortgagee shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this
Declaration and the Bylaws, including, but not limited to, the obligation to pay for all assessments and
charges accruing thereafter, in the same manner as the Lot Owner; provided, however, the Mortgagee
shall acquire the title to said Lot free and clear of any lien authorized by or arising out of any
provisions of this Declaration which secures the payment of any assessment for charges accrued prior to
the date said Mortgagee became entitled to possession of the Lot.
13.4.4 Unpaid Assessments. If it is deemed necessary by the Association, any unpaid
assessment against a Building foreclosed against may be treated as a common expense of the other Lots.
Any such unpaid assessments shall continue to exist as a personal obligation of the defaulting Lot
Owner of the respective Lot.

permitted by law. If Washington State Law is amended after adoption of this Declaration, then the
liability of each Board Member and officer of the Association shall be limited to the full extent
permitted by the Washington State Law, as so amended. No repeal or modification of this Section 17.1

Page 27
W:\WPDOCS\90313\002\tmb6550.doc Declaration of Protective Covenants

who has ceased to be a Board Member and/or officer and shall inure to the benefit of that person's
heirs, personal representatives, or assigns. The Association may, upon written request, advance
expenses incurred by the Board Members and/or officers entitled to this indemnification. If a claim for

received by the Association, the claimant may sue the Association to recover any unpaid amount. If
successful, the claimant shall be entitled to reasonable costs and attorneys' fees.
In addition, the Association shall have the power to indemnify an officer who is not a Board
Member, as well as employees and agents of the Association who are not Board Members (including
the Developer), to the full extent permitted by Washington State Law as it now exists or is amended
hereafter. Whether an officer, agent or employee who is not a Board Member should be indemnified
and the amount of indemnification to be provided shall be determined by general or specific action of
the Board of Directors.
The Association shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
person who is or was a Board Member, officer, employee, or agent of the Association against any
liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such capacity or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the Association would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the
provisions of Washington State Law.
The Association shall indemnify, defend and hold any Board Member or officer harmless for
any obligation of the Association which the Board Member or officer personally guaranteed, so long as
that Association obligation has been authorized and/or ratified by the Board of Directors as provided for

time of the request for indemnification, then that provision shall be automatically
modified to provide the broadest indemnification available under the existing Washington State Law.
The rights to indemnification, limitation of liability, and to the advancement of expenses
conferred in Sections 17.1 and 17.2 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may

agreement, or vote of Members, disinterested Board Members or otherwise.

MITIGATION MONITORING AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS
The Wedgewood Lane Project is located on the east side of east side of Hoquiam Avenue between NE 10th Street
and NE 121st Street. It includes several parcels being combined to create Wedgewood Lane Divisions 1, 2, 3, and
4. The property is situated within a transitional neighborhood where existing residences on large lots are being
replaced with single-family residential subdivisions. Adjacent properties on the west side of Hoquiam Avenue NE
are occupied by existing residential subdivisions. The property to the east is currently undeveloped although
applications are in process to King County to develop it as a residential subdivision.
Topographically, the property generally slopes gently down from Hoquiam Avenue along the west side of the
roe toward the wetland alongthe east side. Slopes on the east side of the project are somewhat steeper.
property
P
This property is within the May Creek drainage sub-basin of the Cedar River Basin. Drainage from the property
flows eastward to Honey Creek which flows from south to north through the larger Wetland D along the east side
of the project area. Honey Creek is tributary to May Creek, approximately 2 miles northwest of the property. The
City of Renton Water Class Map identifies the stream section starting north of NE 10th Street as a Class 4 water.
The steam is not shown on the Water Class Map as extending south of SE 116th St. The stream section adjacent to
the Wedgewood Lane project has been designated as a Class 4 water requiring a 35ft buffer.
WETLAND AREAS
The Wetland Evaluation Report for Wedgewood Lane Divisions 1, 2, 3, and 4 dated November 20, 2006, describes
the identified the wetland areas on the four divisions. As described in that report there are four separately
identified wetlands within the project boundaries. Two of these, Wetlands A and B, are small isolated areas with
areas of 1,998sq.ft and 5,887sq.ft respectively. Wetlands C within Division 3, is continuous with Wetland F on
Division 4. It occupies an area of approximately 1,690sq.ft on Division 3 and approximately 7,255sq.ft. on
Division 4.
Seasonal Stream Corridor
There is a seasonal stream which originates as the roadside ditch in Hoquiam Avenue. It enters the project area in
Division 4. It flows across Division 4 and through Wetlands F and C. From Wetland C on Division 3, it flows
approximately 450 feet across Division 3 within a poorly defined channel before entering Wetland D-2, an
extension of the larger Wetland D. Himalayan blackberry(Rubus discolor) is the predominant vegetation growing
over the channel where it crosses Wedgewood Lane Division 3.
This drainage course, where it crosses Division 3 meets the criteria for designation as a City of Renton Class 4
water, because it is intermittent and does not include salmonid habitat. The standard buffer assigned for Class 4
water is 35ft.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT—WETLAND/STREAM IMPACTS
It is proposed to develop the property for construction of a residential development in four divisions, as shown on
project maps by Core Design, Inc., and on the Wetland and Stream Mitigation and Monitoring Plan(Sheets 1 to 7).
The Wetland and Stream Mitigation and Monitoring Plan is designed to mitigate for wetland and buffer impacts.
Storm Water Treatment Facilities
Storm water run-off from the developed area will be treated in two separate storm water treatment facilities being
constructed on the east side of the project within proposed Division 3. Construction of the pond berms involves
temporary disturbance to the outer limits of the wetland buffer. The extent of the work for construction of the
storm-water treatment ponds is illustrated on grading plans prepared by CORE Design.
The affected buffer areas are included in the Mitigation Planting plans for the project.
Roof and footing drains from residential building lots adjacent to Wetland D are being discharged by way of level
spreaders within the wetland buffer at 16 locations. Areas affected by this construction are included in the
Mitigation Planting Plans. Outfalls from the two storm water treatment facilities are similarly included in the
Mitigation Planting Plans.
Sanitary Sewer Construction
Sanitary sewer service for the project will be provided by installation of a lift station along SE 116th Street at the
north end of the project. This pump station will direct flows to existing sanitary sewer lines. Construction of the
pipeline to connect with the pump station includes a connection to a residential development to be constructed on
the east side of the larger off-site wetland. The pipe line crosses the smaller section of Wetland D, designated as
Wetland D-3.
The new pipeline will also cross a portion of Wetland D-2 buffer area north of the southern storm water treatment
pond.
The wetland and buffer areas affected by the sanitary sewer line construction are included in the Mitigation
Planting Plan.
Road Construction
Construction of the road system serving the Wedgewood Lane project impacts the wetland or stream and buffers
on the property at four locations.
Construction of the access road from SE 116th Street into Division 3 will require a crossing of the seasonal stream.
Mitigation for the stream crossing is being provided by enhancing the vegetative cover along the stream.
Continuation of the roadway to the south toward the south will fill Wetland A. Wetland A is a small isolated
wetland of less than 2,500sq.ft As a small isolated wetland of less than 2,500 it is exempt from wetland regulation
under Renton City Sensitive Area regulations.
Grading for construction of Jericho Place NE at the south end of Division 3 involves some fill placement over the
outer margin of the buffer for the roadway berm. This affected buffer area will be restored with plantings of native
trees and shrubs,
Construction of the Access road to Division 2 from Hoquiam Avenue will require unavoidable impact to Wetland
B. The location of the entrance road is defined by the location of SE 121st Street. Because of the requirement to
match new roads with existing intersections there is no alternative location for the roadway to enter the project.
The City of Renton requires that "The overall goal of any compensatory project shall be no net loss of wetland
function and acreage and to strive for a net resource gain in wetlands over present conditions. The concept of"no
net loss" means to create, restore and/or enhance a wetland so that there is no reduction to total wetland acreage
and/or function."
Mitigation for filling Wetland B in Division 2 is being provided by creating approximately 6,100sq.ft of new
wetland and enhancement of approximately 8,124sq.ft of the existing wetland within Division 3.
Wetland Mitigation Concept.
Mitigation for the impact to Wetland B in Division 2 will be carried out within Division 3. For construction of the
roadway, 5,887sq.ft of the wetland habitat area will be impacted. Mitigation for the impact to the wetland will be
provided by creation of a minimum of approximately 6,100sq.ft. of new wetland and enhancement of
approximately of 8,124sq.ft of existing wetland within Division 3.
Wetland Mitigation by Wetland Creation
There are two areas identified to provide for wetland creation to satisfy the mitigation requirement. The southern
of these two areas is adjacent to the large wetland along the east side of the property. This area is currently
occupied by dense Himalayan blackberry. A portion of the area is occupied by pasture grasses.
The second of the two areas is located between the two westward extensions of the large wetland. This area is
primarily vegetated in Himalayan blackberry with some scattered black cottonwood trees.
Wetland Creation over both of these areas will be accomplished by shallow excavation to allow overflow from the
wetland into the wetland creation area. The combined mitigation area is approximately 6,100sq.ft.
These two areas identified for wetland creation will provide the required 1:1 replacement ratio as required. In
accordance with the City of Renton Wetland regulations additional mitigation in the form of wetland enhancement
is also being provided.
Wetland Mitigation by Wetland Enhancement
There are two wetland areas where it will be feasible to provide mitigation by enhancement of the existing
wetland. These include approximately 2,700sq.ft of the existing wetland C, and approximately 3,100sq.ft of the
existing wetland at the lower end of the seasonal stream. Approximately 8,124sq.ft of wetland will be enhanced on
these two locations.
Wetland C has been impacted by its use as horse pasture. Enhancement of the area will involve planting the area
with native trees and shrubs, and a maintenance program over the minimum five year monitoring period to control
the growth of invasive species.
The wetland at the lower end of the seasonal stream is currently occupied by Himalayan blackberry. Enhancement
of this existing wetland will be carried out by removing and then controlling the growth of Himalayan blackberry
and other invasive species. Plantings of native trees and shrubs will be made on the area to accelerate the
establishment of a native habitat.
The mitigation work to enhance the wetland area will also include the surrounding buffer areas.
Stream Mitigation
Mitigation to compensate for the impact to the seasonal stream for construction of Jericho Place NE will be
provided by enhancing the vegetative cover along the stream corridor. Mitigation work will involve removal and
control of the Himalayan blackberry along the stream corridor and replanting with native trees and shrubs. This
work will be carried out in conjunction with the work in the adjacent wetlands and will be similar to the wetland
enhancement.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Wetland Mitigation (Enhancement and Creation)
With implementation of the proposed mitigation design concept, the wetland functions impacted by Wetland B in
Division 2 will be replaced by creation of 6,100sq.ft of new wetland and by enhancing approximately 8,124sq.ft of
existing disturbed wetland area. The areas included are somewhat larger than the minimum requirements.
The general goal of the mitigation plan is to create a wetland habitat area which has comparable or greater function
as is found in the existing wetland and stream to be impacted. This goal will be accomplished by replacing the
area to be filled with new wetland, and by enhancing portions of the existing wetland and buffer. With completion
of the mitigation design plan the total wetland area on the project will be expanded.
The wetland mitigation design involves four general objectives:
1. Establish new scrub-shrub wetland habitat which mimics native plant communities on a
minimum of 5,887sq.ft. of created wetland area, having a minimum of four wetland shrub
species and two wetland tree species. (Area shown on mitigation plan drawings is
somewhat greater than the minimum required.)
2. Control the growth of invasive plants, including Himalayan blackberry and Scot's broom
on the areas included in the mitigation plan. •
3. Enhance existing wetland area occupied by emergent habitat to establish 8,124sq.ft of
scrub-shrub habitat with a minimum of four native shrub species and three native tree
species.
4. Enhance existing steam and wetland buffer area. Enhancement involves control of non
native weedy species and establishment of native shrub growth on the buffer. Trees are
included in the planting plan so that a forest component will be established over time.
Wetland Hydrology/Water Regime
The areas designated for the wetland creation and enhancement will be hydrologically supported by natural
drainage patterns. In addition, the proposed grading for wetland creation will intercept the shallow perched water
table which is present across the site to create wetland hydrological conditions.
The grading plan for the new wetland area is designed to match the elevations in the adjacent wetland with the
intent of allowing surface and subsurface water to spill into the newly created wetland area.
The hydrological objective of the mitigation design is to maintain saturated soils to within 12 inches of the surface
within the wetland creation area at least until May 1 of each year.
Stream and Wetland Buffer Enhancement
The general goal to be achieved on the Stream and Wetland Buffer enhancement areas is to remove and control the
growth of the Himalayan blackberry present on the areas and to establish native trees and shrubs on the designated
buffer areas.
This mitigation by buffer enhancement has two general objectives:
1. Enhance Existing stream and wetland buffer area. Enhancement involves control of non-
native weedy species and establishment of native shrub growth on the buffer. Trees will
be included in the planting plan so that a forest component will be established over time.
The enhanced buffer areas will have a minimum of four native shrub species and three
native tree species.
2. Control the growth of non-native invasive species including Himalayan blackberry and
Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) among others included in the Department of Ecology
listing of invasive species.
Buffer Restoration Area.
The general goal for the plantings on the buffer restoration areas is to accelerate the establishment of native shrubs
and trees on the affected buffer areas.
The buffer restoration design has two general objectives:
1. Restore the affected buffer areas to support native scrub-shrub habitat with a minimum of 4 shrub species
and three native tree species.
2. Limit the growth of non-native species including Himalayan blackberry and Scotch broom among other
species included on the Department of Ecology listing on invasive species.
WETLAND MITIGATION MONITORING
Standards of Success
A determination of the success in achieving the buffer/wetland mitigation goals and objectives will be based on the
following standards:
1. A minimum 80-percent average native vegetative cover of trees and shrubs throughout the mitigation
areas at the end of the minimum five year monitoring period. Plant species composition shall meet the
intent of the mitigation goals.
2. A minimum of 80- percent survival of planted trees and shrubs at the end of each of the minimum five
years of the monitoring period. This survival rate is established as a goal and may be adjusted where
natural regeneration and growth has resulted in minimum plant cover, as defined in Item 1. Weedy and
invasive species, such as reed canarygrass and Himalayan blackberry, will not be considered suitable
substitutes for the planted species.
3. Less than twenty percent cover by invasive weedy species at the end of each growing season during the
five year monitoring period.
4. Saturated soils to the surface throughout the limits of the wetland creation areas at least until May 1,
measured consecutively, for each year during the monitoring period.
5. Creation and maintenance of a minimum of 5,887sq.ft of scrub-shrub wetland combined between the
two areas designated as wetland creation. The wetland creation area shall have a minimum of three
native scrub-shrub species within the wetland creation area.
6. A water table within 12 inches of the surface through May 1 of each monitoring year.
Sampling Methods
Vegetative cover will be sampled by measurements along 50-foot long permanently established transects. Data to
be collected on these transects include surviving plant numbers and aerial coverage by species. These transects
will be located to provide adequate sampling of the different vegetation zones in the mitigation area. A minimum
of five transects will be established to sample the buffer and wetland mitigation areas. Permanent stakes will
identify the end points of each transect.
In addition to the sample transects, permanent photo points will be established from which the mitigation area can
be photographed. These photos will provide a pictorial record of the development of the area over time and will be
used to supplement the quantitative sample transects.
Water levels within the created wetlands will be monitored using shallow monitoring wells installed within the two
wetland creation areas. A minimum of two monitoring wells will be installed in each creation area.
Monitoring Schedule
The project biologist shall provide construction inspection services during implementation of the mitigation plan to
ensure that mitigation design objectives are being met. It is important that wetland biologist provide observation
and consultation services when work is underway within mitigation areas. This is to assure that enhancement
design is being appropriately interpreted and to be available to provide consultation and make adjustments in the
event changed conditions are encountered and to identify the specific limits of work.
An initial report describing the as-built conditions will be prepared for submittal to City of Renton when
construction work has been completed. This report will be prepared upon completion of the plantings for the
project and will identify the work completed and document the baseline conditions for defining the success of the
project in subsequent monitoring reports.
Following completion of the project the mitigation areas will be monitored on the following schedule.
1. As-built monitoring to be completed within 30 days after completion. Mitigation grading and
plant materials have been installed.
2. Quarterly during the first year after installation of the plant materials and during June or July of
the second,third, fourth and fifth years after installation.
4. Final inspection of the mitigation project, five years after the mitigation plantings were installed
and the mitigation work accepted as complete.
5. Hydrologic monitoring of the mitigation areas will be done five times (approximately 14 day
intervals) between March 1 and May 1 during the each of the five years of the monitoring period.
The first hydrologic monitoring shall be completed by March 1,2007.
The wetland biologist will monitor the project on the above schedule and prepare written reports addressing the
survivability and growth of plant materials, as well as any recommendations for maintenance or remediation.
These reports will be submitted to City of Renton within three weeks of completing each monitoring visit. The
wetland biologist will prepare a final report at the end of the minimum five year monitoring period to be submitted
within thirty days of completing the final mitigation inspection. This final report will address the success of the
project in meeting the project objectives.
First Year Quarterly Monitoring
Quarterly monitoring during the year following completion of the planting is intended to assure that the plant
materials are surviving and the installation has been successful. Monitoring inspections completed during the first
year are primarily intended to provide qualitative reports identifying maintenance requirements and to identify any
possible remediation measures required to assure that the plant materials have been adequately installed and that
other elements of the mitigation plan are in place as intended.

Section I — Introduction
This report has been prepared to serve as a guide in the maintenance efforts needed for the
privately owned stormwater management facilities located within the plat of Wedgewood Lane,
Divisions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The recommendations contained in this manual should be considered
the minimum necessary under normal operating conditions. Additional inspections and
maintenance may be necessary after significant storm events. The information contained herein
was taken from the 2005 King County Surface Water Design Manual. Although this plat is located
in the City of Renton, the City utilizes the King County manual for stormwater facility design
requirements. Additional information about the design and maintenance of these facilities can be
found in that manual, which is available for review at the offices of the King County Dept. of
Development and Environmental Services, the City of Renton and some local library branches.
The website for King County Government also may be a good resource to obtain the latest
maintenance recommendations as they evolve in the future.

quality impacts of some or all of the impervious surfaces or non-native pervious surfaces on
your property. Basic dispersion is a strategy for utilizing any available capacity of onsite
vegetated areas to retain, absorb, and filter the runoff from developed surfaces. This flow
control BMP has two primary components that must be maintained: (1) the devices that
disperse runoff from the developed surfaces and (2) the vegetated area over which runoff is
dispersed.
Dispersion Devices
The dispersion devices used on your property include the following as indicated on the flow
control BMP site plan: D splash blocks, D rock pads, D gravel filled trenches, D sheet flow.
The size, placement, composition, and downstream flowpaths of these devices as depicted by
the flow control BMP site plan and design details must be maintained and may not be changed
without written approval either from the King County Water and Land Resources Division or
through a future development permit from King County.
Dispersion devices must be inspected annually and after major storm events to identify and
repair any physical defects. When native soil is exposed or erosion channels are present, the
sources of the erosion or concentrated flow need to be identified and mitigated. Concentrated
flow can be mitigated by leveling the edge of the pervious area and/or realigning or
replenishing the rocks in the dispersion device, such as in rock pads and gravel filled trenches.
Vegetated Flowpaths
The vegetated area over which runoff is dispersed must be maintained in good condition free
of bare spots and obstructions that would concentrate flows.
B. Permeable Pavement(Wedgewood Lane—Div. 5 only)
The following recommendations are the minimum necessary to maintain the permeable
pavement on Wedgewood Lane Division 5. This BMP is relatively new and as King County
gains more experience with the maintenance and operation of these BMPs, future updates to
these instructions will be posted on King County's Surface Water Design Manual website.
Your property contains a stormwater management flow control BMP (best management
practice) called "permeable pavement," which was installed to minimize the stormwater
quantity and quality impacts of some or all of the paved surfaces on your property. Permeable
pavements reduce the amount of rainfall that becomes runoff by allowing water to seep
through the pavement into a free-draining gravel or sand bed, where it can be infiltrated into
the ground.
The type(s) of permeable pavement used on your property is: porous concrete, porous
asphaltic concrete,permeable pavers, modular grid pavement.
17
The area covered by permeable pavement as depicted by the flow control BMP site plan and
design details must be maintained as permeable pavement and may not be changed without
written approval either from the King County Water and Land Resources Division or through
a future development permit from King County.
Permeable pavements must be inspected after one major storm each year to make sure it is
working properly. Prolonged ponding or standing water on the pavement surface is a sign that
the system is defective and may need to be replaced. If this occurs, contact the pavement
installer or the King County Water and Land Resources Division for further instructions. A
typical permeable pavement system has a life expectancy of approximately 25 years. To help
extend the useful life of the system, the surface of the permeable pavement should be kept
clean and free of leaves, debris, and sediment through regular sweeping or vacuum sweeping.
The owner is responsible for the repair of all ruts, deformation, and/or broken paving units.

Disposal of Trash Debris and Sediment
Trash and Debris
Small amounts of trash and debris can be put into your solid waste container. Large amounts may
require hiring a vendor to dispose of the material. If using a vendor, ensure that the vendor properly
disposes of waste.
Sediment
1. Clean sediment may be used as landscape material or sent to yard waste recyclers.
2. Sediment that does not appear to be heavily contaminated with oil or grease can be double
bagged and put into your solid waste container. Material that appears to be heavily contaminated
must be disposed of by a qualified vendor.
If you have any questions, contact the Waste Characterization Program at 206-296-4633.

MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST
Directions for property owner/manager or maintenance vendor:
1. Refer to the component definitions in the "Drainage Maintenance Standards" booklet, as well as your individual site
plan to determine what facilities you have on your property. On a site plan, "CB" refers to catch basin.
2. Check "yes" or "no" indicating whether you have each facility component on your property (i.e., pond, Type II catch
basin, culvert, etc.).
3. Inspect each component to determine whether it has any defects causing it to not meet the King County standard (see
"Drainage Maintenance Standards" booklet).
4. In the "Meets Standard or Defect Number" column, list the applicable defect number(A-1,A-2, etc.) from the Drainage
Maintenance Standards booklet, or write "Meets Standard" if the facility meets the standard. (NOTE: If there is more than
one component for a facility type, list each component by its number on the site'plan (CB-1, CB-2, etc.) along with any
defect numbers.
5. Perform maintenance on all defective facility components to bring them up to standard.
6. Check off the work that has been completed and the date it was completed.
