Dear Mr. Carlson:
The Planning Division of the City of Renton accepted the above master application for review
on July 24, 2019. During our review, staff has determined that additional information is
necessary in order to proceed further.
The following information will need to be submitted before November 15, 2019 so that we may
continue the review of the above subject application:
Development Management Engineers, LLC with the Land Use Application, submitted a
Preliminary Drainage Plan and Technical Information Report (TIR), dated July 2, 2019
(revised date July 11, 2019). Based on the City of Renton’s flow control map, the site
falls within the Flow Control Duration Standard Area matching Forested Site Conditions
and is within the Black River Drainage Basin. The development is subject to Full Drainage
Review in accordance with the 2017 Renton Surface Water Design Manual (RSWDM). In
order to meet the exception criteria, the differential flow rate must be calculated using
the 100-year 15-minute storm event. Based on the information provided, which is
consistent with what the City determined as well, it appears that this project does not
currently meet the exception criteria for flow control. At this point, the project does not
comply with RSWDM Core Requirement #3: Flow Control. Please show how this core
requirement is being addressed.
At this time, your project has been placed “on hold” pending receipt of the requested
information. Please contact me at (425) 430-7289 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Clark H. Close
Senior Planner
