King County: Parks Levy King County Parks Assistant Director Tom Koney reported on the proposals for
renewal of King County Parks operating levy and the parks and recreation
expansion levy. He reviewed the current King County Parks system, which
consists of more than 180 parks, 25,000 acres of parks and open space, and 175
miles of trails. Mr. Koney pointed out that the system focuses on regional open
space and regional trails.
Mr. Koney stated that the current four-year operating levy, which provides
direct support for approximately 57 percent of the operating budget, expires on
12/31/2007. The typical household burden is $17 per year based upon a
$400,000 home. He reported that the King County Parks Futures Task Force
April 9, 2007 Renton City Council Minutes Page 126
convened from November 2006 to March 2007 to deliberate two issues: how to
maintain the King County Parks system after the operating levy expires and
how to build the system to serve the needs of the region tomorrow.
Continuing, Mr. Koney explained that the task force recommended two six-year
companion levies. The King County Executive followed the task force's lead in
also recommending two companion levies, slightly downsized, to the King
County Council. The six-year operating levy renewal and the six-year parks
and recreation expansion levy would each levy five cents on every$1,000 of
assessed valuation. The typical household burden would be $20 per year for
each levy based upon a $400,000 home.
Mr. Koney indicated that the King County Council must approve both
ordinances no later than 5/29/2007 for the August 21 primary ballot. He noted
that passage of either levy is not pre-conditioned on passage of the other, and if
the operating renewal levy measure fails,the measure will be placed on the
November general election ballot.
Responding to Council President Nelson's inquiry, Community Services
Administrator Higashiyama stated that the total Renton has paid from 2004
through 2007 for the current levy is $1,267,000.
ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs
adopted as part of its business plan for 2007 and beyond. Items noted included:
* Renton and King County will share the costs of an annexation telephone
survey in the Benson Hill Communities to be conducted beginning April 16
to assess residents' interest in annexation and to gain an understanding of
the service issues important to residents in the area.
* Garden Ave. N. will be closed April 10, 11, and 12 from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. to
allow installation of water lines for the new Target store.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Arland "Buzz" Johnson, 334 Wells Ave. S., #306, Renton, 98057, voiced his
Citizen Comment: Johnson - appreciation for the Days of Remembrance proclamation. Additionally, Mr.
Diamond Lanes Johnson expressed support for the expanded use of diamond lanes (high

Proposal
• King County Executive Ron Sims Proposal
King County Parks System
• Over 180 parks—from 0.25 acres to 3,100 acres
• More than 25,000 acres in total
• Regional Trail System comprised of nearly 175 miles of trails throughout
urban and rural King County
• 90,000 acres of development rights (Snoqualmie Tree Farm) preserving
land in private ownership, with public access
• Majority of System acreage is in large regional"passive" parks located in
rural areas—open space, natural areas. Inexpensive to operate and
maintain.
• Small percentage of parks and facilities are developed for"active
recreation"—ballfields, pools, community centers. These are relatively
expensive to operate and maintain.

Changes to County Park System
since 2002 Budget Crisis
• 1/3 fewer FTEs
• Focus on regional trails,regional passive parks and limited regional active
parks
• Maintain local rural park role(open to alternative operating 1 ownership
models)
• Seek to transfer local urban parks to cities and others:transition nearly
complete except for few remaining parks in annexation areas
• Focus on raising operating revenue from user fees,entrepreneurial efforts
22%of operating budget now supported from these sources.
County Parks System since 2002
■ Community Partnership Grants program has leveraged
development of over$20 million in public recreation
facilities, through County contribution of approximately
$2 million to community groups
• Limited acquisitions of new open space from
Conservation Futures Tax funded purchases (about
1,000 acres a year, excluding development rights
purchase of Snoqualmie Tree Farm)
• Regional Trail system additions of about 5 miles/year.

Key Challenges
• Operating levy provides direct support for approximately 57% of
operating budget, Expires 12/31/07
• Annexations and slower housing market could cause loss of over
half of Parks capital funding (Real Estate Excise Tax) in next 6
years.
• County General Fund heading back into deficit in 2008. Service
reductions likely across the board.
• County parks maintenance levels remain well below 2002 levels—
and well below that of most city park systems.

Snapshot of County Budget Challenges
• Public Health funding: current program cost growth outstripping
revenue growth
• PERS, LEOFF, benefit growth
• Other funds also stressed: Roads, Surface Water Management
• Debt capacity limits: potential capital requests outstrip CX Fund debt
policy limits
• Annexation Initiative reduces CX burden, but eliminates other
revenues, especially REET
• Reserves funded in 2005-06 will be expended in 07-09 period

• MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 9, 2007
TO: Toni Nelson, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
FROM: Kathy Keolker, Mayor
Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Administrative Report
In addition to our day-to-day activities, the following items are worthy of note for this week:
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Renton and King County will share the costs of an annexation survey in the Benson Hill
Communities to be conducted beginning April 16th. The purpose of this statistically valid
telephone survey is to assess residents' interest in annexation and to gain understanding of the
service issues important to residents in the area. Survey results will be reported when available.
COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT
• During Spring Break this week, two performances are being held for children at Carco Theatre,
sponsored by the Keutla Team of Keller Williams Realty. On Wednesday, "Alleyoop" is
performing at 1:00 p.m. On Friday, "Brothers from Different Mothers" is performing at 1:00 p.m.
Tickets are $2.00 and can be purchased at the door. For more information call 425-430-6700 or
visit the City's website at www.rentonwa.gov.
FINANCE AND INFORMATION SERVICES DEPARTMENT
• The City received its semi-annual economic analysis update from Douglas Pedersen and Associates
late last week. Some highlights of the report include: through 2008, Renton's population growth
rate will average more than twice that of King County; the number of housing permits issued in
Renton grew 55% from 1999 through 2005 compared to 12% for King County; current unfilled
orders of Boeing 737s total 1,449, equal to 4.5 years of production; Renton will experience more
robust growth across the board during the next few years; and, as accelerated job creation lifts both
population and retail sales, Renton's retail sales tax collection will increase an estimated 7.5% in
2007, not counting the effect of The Landing. The report is available on the City's website in the
Business section.
PLANNING/BUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
• Garden Avenue will be closed April 10th, 1 lth, and 12th from 9:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m. to allow
installation of water lines for the new Target store. Local businesses have been informed, and
emergency vehicles will be able to get through during the closure.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
At the regular Council meeting of May 8, 2006, the City Council held a public hearing to consider
a vacation request, submitted by Matt Webber, AHBL, Inc. for a ten-foot walkway,
approximately 163 feet in length, located between NW 6th St. and Rainier Ave. N. The Council
approved the vacation request subject to an easement in favor of the City being retained over the
entire right-of-way; there being no grading or filling allowed within the easement area; and the
petitioner providing satisfactory proof that outside utility companies have received and are
satisfied with any easements necessary to protect their facilities within the area. Also, at the
Council meeting of March 12, 2007, compensation was set at $9,800. Compensation was
received by the City Clerk on March 19th. No other amounts are due, and all other conditions of
the vacation approval have been satisfied. Therefore, the ordinance can be adopted to finalize the
vacation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Finalize the street vacation by adopting the ordinance

projects may result; however, most residents will hold off on projects until the
zoning is in place if properties are not non-conforming.
'r.r► Councilman Persson expressed two concerns: extending the moratorium when
the prior extension was to be the last time, and allowing people to fix up their
properties, which would most likely be addressed with a limited moratorium.
Councilman Clawson commented on all of the time spent studying the
Highlands redevelopment, the need for affordable housing, and the importance
of the area. He expressed his favor for at least extending the moratorium to
prevent subdivision.
Councilman Law expressed concern that the Comprehensive Plan calls for a
different density in the area, and he noted the progress being made on the
zoning proposal. He voiced support for the alternate moratorium that bans only
the subdivision of the properties,pointing out that it provides opportunity to
fine tune the rezoning and to protect the progress made thus far.
Councilwoman Nelson voiced her fear for residents who want to redevelop
their single-family housing, and her fear that if nothing is done, the area is
going to get worse. She indicated that unless an effort is made, new stores and
developers will not be attracted to the area. Ms. Nelson stated her support for
the alternate moratorium that bans only the subdivision of properties.
In response to Council President Corman's concerns regarding non-conforming
uses, Ms. Lind explained the difference between an existing legal use, which is
conforming, and a legal non-conforming use.
*Motion to not extend the moratorium failed.
MOVED BY NELSON, SECONDED BY PALMER, COUNCIL EXTEND
THE MORATORIUM WITH THE ALTERNATE RESOLUTION.*
Responding to a request for clarification, Ms. Lind explained that the alternate
resolution enacts a moratorium on new single-family subdivision in the R-10
zone north of NE Sunset Blvd. She pointed out the lack of need for a
moratorium in the RM-F zone, as new single-family development is not allowed
in that zone. Ms. Lind confirmed that a duplex and a single-family footprint
can be expanded.
*MOTION CARRIED.
Vacation: Walkway, NW 6th This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in
St&Rainier Ave N, AHBL, accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Keolker opened the public hearing
VAC-06-001 to consider the street vacation petition submitted by Matt Weber, AHBL, Inc.,
I on behalf of JDA Group LLC and I.D. Kline Corporation, LLC for a 163-foot-
long and ten-foot-wide walkway between NW 6th St. and Rainier Ave. N.
(VAC-06-001).
Karen McFarland, Engineering Specialist, stated that City facilities contained
within the subject area include an eight-inch sewer main and a twelve-inch
water line. She explained that the petitioner plans to use the area in the future
development of the adjacent parcels.
Ms. McFarland reported that the petition did not receive any objections from
City departments and outside agencies; however, the Utilities Systems Division
N"" I requested that an easement be retained over the entire right-of-way, and that
grading and filling not be allowed within the easement area. She pointed out
May 8, 2006 Renton City Council Minutes Page 148
that Puget Sound Energy may have facilities within the vacation area.
Concluding, Ms. McFarland stated that staff recommends approval of the
vacation request.
Ms. McFarland read correspondence from the petitioner's representative Matt
Weber, AHBL, Inc., expressing support for the proposal and pointing out that
the area has never been used as a pedestrian walkway. Mr. Weber indicated
that the vacation will relieve the City of liability in having a walkway that is not
needed, goes nowhere, and contains steep slopes.

THEIR FACILITIES WITHIN THE AREA. CARRIED.
ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work
programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2006 and beyond. Items noted
included:
* The King County Northwest Natural Yard Days program is underway
through May 15th. King County, in partnership with local government ,
agencies, cities, and local water providers, supports this program to
encourage the use of environmentally preferable yard care products.
* The 2006 Spring Recycling Day is scheduled for May 13th at Renton
Technical College's north parking lot.
Public Safety: Integrated Mayor Keolker announced that many City officials and staff attended the
Emergency Management Integrated Emergency Management Course in Maryland last week, which was
Course funded by the Federal government. Councilwoman Briere stated that she was
impressed by City staffs performance during an earthquake exercise.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Bimal Kumar, 2102 NE 23rd St.,Renton, 98056, indicated that although the
Citizen Comment: Kumar- vision for the Highlands area has been approached in the wrong way, the effort
Highlands Area must not be discontinued. He emphasized that a middle ground can be reached
Redevelopment that addresses the neglected duplexes, and also allows people to keep their
homes.
Citizen Comment: Petersen- Inez Petersen, 3306 Lake Washington Blvd. N., #3, Renton, 98056, commented
Various that the Integrated Emergency Management Course referred to during the
Administrative Report was a waste of taxpayer money. She asked that Heidi
Beckley's comments made during Audience Comment at the Council meeting of
4/17/2006 be stricken from the meeting minutes. Regarding the graffiti
incident that occurred in the Mayor's Office on April 17th, Ms. Petersen urged
the Council and Mayor to take lie detector tests. In regards to the moratorium,
she indicated that it is unclear as to what is now allowed and not allowed for
single-family homes and duplexes.

Councilmember Law pointed out that some people may think that a decision has
been made by the way the resolution is written. Mr. Law stated that there is not
enough information to make that decision, and he does not want to send out the
wrong message. Mr. Law indicated that he is willing to work on the resolution,
with the emphasize that the City has yet to know anything about infrastructure
dollars, revenues, and impacts.
Council discussion ensued regarding the whereas statements in the resolution,
the placement of the language in the resolution, the hurdles that need to be
crossed before it is known whether the stadium is even possible, the discussion
of this matter at the Council retreat, and the requests for more information.
Mayor Keolker expressed her hope than an appropriate resolution can be
crafted, as it will provide direction to the Administration.

acre) zoning. He reported that despite the smaller than normal annexation area,
the limitation of future development to 69 or fewer lots, and the poor
INew connectivity to Renton because of a power line corridor, the annexation
proposal provides a potential catalyst for annexing a larger area to the east, and
facilitates upgrading a portion of Benson Hill under Renton's development
standards.
Continuing, Mr. Erickson reported that the fiscal impact analysis indicates a
deficit of$2,007 at current development, and a surplus of$2,226 at full
development. He noted the estimated one-time parks acquisition and
development cost of$36,564. In conclusion, Mr. Erickson stated that the
proposed annexation is generally consistent with City policies and Boundary
Review Board criteria. He noted the potential downstream flooding of Rolling
Hills Creek, and staffs suggestion for Level 2 flow control for new
development. He also noted that while no major service issues were identified,
the Police Department pointed out the eventual need for more staffing due to
the cumulative impact of recent annexations.

Councilmember Law pointed out that some people may think that a decision has
been made by the way the resolution is written. Mr. Law stated that there is not
Nur, enough information to make that decision, and he does not want to send out the
wrong message. Mr. Law indicated that he is willing to work on the resolution,
with the emphasize that the City has yet to know anything about infrastructure
dollars, revenues, and impacts.
Council discussion ensued regarding the whereas statements in the resolution,
the placement of the language in the resolution, the hurdles that need to be
crossed before it is known whether the stadium is even possible, the discussion
of this matter at the Council retreat, and the requests for more information.
Mayor Keolker expressed her hope than an appropriate resolution can be
crafted, as it will provide direction to the Administration.

�',NrrO� MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 4, 2007
TO: Bonnie Walton, City Clerk
FROM: Ron Straka, Surface Water Utility Supervisor (ext. 7248) '
STAFF CONTACT: Allen Quynn, Surface Water Utility Engineer(ext. 7247)
SUBJECT: SW 34th Street Culvert Replacement Project Construction
Contract Bid Award
The bid opening for the SW 34th Street Culvert Replacement Project was held April 3,
2007, at 2:30 p.m. Six bids were submitted. The Engineer's Estimate for the project is
$1,132,884.00.
The low bid for the project is $1,270,871.00 from R.L. Alia Company. The Surface Water
Utility has reviewed all bids for completeness, inclusion of all required forms, bid bond, and
mathematical correctness. No mathematical errors were found in the low bid. All other
paper work was in order.
The low bid of$1,270,871.00 is within the amount that the Surface Water Utility has
budgeted for the SW 34th Street Culvert Replacement project. The approved Surface Water
Utility 2007 Capital Improvements Program (CIP) budget for the SW 34th Street Culvert
Replacement project is $1,385,000.00. There is currently $1,331,295.00 of unencumbered
funds in the project budget (account number 427.000600.018.5960.0038.65.065370).
The low bid meets the following conditions for award:
1. The low bid must be within the total project budget.
2. There must be more than one bidder.
3. The lowest responsive, responsible bid contains no significant irregularities.
Attached for your reference is a bid tabulation showing the Engineer's Estimate, low
bid amount, and the other five bids submitted. One bidder, Westwater Construction
Co., was found to have an irregularity on the last page of their bid where the bid items
are missing the unit price in typed words. In addition, in Bid Item #20 the unit price
in typed words (fifteen hundred) did not match the unit price in numbers
($15,000.00). Since the typed word prevails, the actual bid amount is $1,772,173.00.
However, these irregularities have no effect on the selection of the low bidder.

With the exception of the low bidder's forms and schedule of prices, all bid packages will
be returned to the City Clerk's office.

SUBJECT: Proposed Interlocal Cooperative Agreement between the
Renton School District and the City of Renton concerning
the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center.
Issue
Should the City of Renton enter into an Interlocal Cooperative Agreement with the
Renton School District for use of the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center? The
original Agreement was authorized in 2003. The 2003 Agreement expired in 2006. The
new Agreement will be in effect for three years beginning in 2007.
Background:
• In 1999, the Renton Community, Renton School District, City of Renton, and
Renton Community Foundation formed a unique partnership. The result is an
example of private and public entities working together to make both tax and
private dollars stretch in new and creative ways.
• In June of 2003, the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center opened its doors.
Since that time, over 1,000 events have occurred including those sponsored by the
City of Renton.
• Changes in the new agreement include:
➢ Defines the City's cost of Renton School District staff(Section 3).
➢ Allows for twelve days of use rather than an unspecified number(Section
8a).
➢ Defines the exact contact persons for the Renton School District and the
City of Renton(Section 15).
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council authorize the Interlocal
Cooperative Agreement.

Section 8.
It is hereby agreed that a twelve-month schedule of dates for the use of the
District's facilities be worked out in advance by the City and the District so as to avoid
conflict between District and City use. In the scheduling of said facilities when there are
conflicts, District events and programs and programs directly involving or benefiting
students and parents of the District and a limited number of community uses that have a
history of facility use shall have first priority; City programs shall have second priority;
and any other events by other groups or agencies shall have third priority. City requests
shall specify times and dates in a manner that will make it possible for the District to
schedule school uses or groups or agencies that have third priority. The twelve-month
schedule shall be forwarded to the District on or before June 1 of each year so that the
District may establish a schedule for the next school year by July 15. Failure of the City

requests after July 15. City requests shall specify times and dates in a manner that will
make it possible for the District to schedule groups or agencies that have third priority.
Section 8a.
For purposes of keeping the space open to community rentals and school district
usage, there will be a limit of twelve city events in the facilities from July 1 through June
30 each year. The City will assign one person to coordinate scheduling these twelve
events with the District manager.
Section 9. ' `
All events, activities, and/or programs must be submitted (in writing) in a timely
fashion to the District's designated representative; however, both parties recognize that
these respective uses and requirements may not be completely predictable. In the
event of an emergency or important public event requiring use of a facility, the City may
cancel or postpone the use of the facility without cost or penalty, provided that as much
advance notice as is practicable is given to the District.
Section 10.
It is further understood and agreed that either party to this Agreement may at any
time terminate this Agreement upon giving to the other party 90 days written notice of its
intention to terminate same, provided, however, that in the event a City program is in
progress at the time the City receives written notice of the District's intent to terminate,
termination of the Agreement shall not be effective until after the program is completed
notwithstanding the fact that said completion date may be more than 90 days
subsequent to the District's notice of termination. In order for a program to be in
progress as that term is used in this Section, an application for use of the school facility
must have been approved by the District. The same procedures shall apply to the
termination by the City of a District program in City facilities.

Section 6.
The City agrees to abide by the District's current Policies, Rules and
Regulations concerning the use of the District's buildings and/or grounds, including,
but not limited to, the District's policy prohibiting smoking, alcohol and weapons on
school property.
Section 7.
It is hereby agreed that, at a minimum, a twelve-month schedule of dates for
the use of the Center be developed in advance by the City and the District so as to
avoid conflict between District and City use. In the scheduling of the Center when
there are conflicts, District events have first priority. City programs shall have second
priority; and any other events by other groups or agencies shall have a lower priority.
City requests shall specify times and dates in a timely manner that will make it
possible for the District to schedule groups or agencies that have a lower priority. A
scheduling session will be held on or before July 1 of each year to exchange
proposed dates and negotiate a mutually acceptable schedule for the next school
year. Failure of the City to include a use or event on the twelve-month schedule
shall not preclude additional requests should times be available.
Section 8.
The description and dates for events, activities, and/or programs must be
submitted in writing in a timely fashion to the District's designated representative;
however, both parties recognize that these respective uses and requirements may
not be completely predictable. In the event of an emergency or important public
event requiring use of the Center, the District or City may cancel or postpone the use
of the Center without cost or penalty, provided that as much advance notice as is
practicable is given to the other party.
Section 9.
It is further understood and agreed that either party to this Agreement may at
any time terminate this Agreement with 90 days written notice of its intention to
terminate same, provided, however, that in the event a City program is in progress at
the time the City receives written notice of the District's intent to terminate,
termination of the Agreement shall not be effective until after the program is
completed notwithstanding the fact that said completion date may be more than
90 days subsequent to the District's notice of termination. In order for a program to
be in progress as that term is used in this Section, the District must have approved
an application for use of the Center and the use (i.e. physical occupancy) has
commenced. It is further understood that upon the termination of the current
contract, the two parties will immediately begin negotiating a new contract.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Pursuant to City financial policy to annually review all permit fees and other charges, the
Planning/Building/Public Works Department submits proposed revisions to the franchise permit
fee, plan review and inspection fee, and street and alley vacation fee. These fees were created or
revised over 15 years ago, and have not been amended since. Proposed increases attempt to
recover the cost to provide these services. If Council was to revise these fees, they should be
revised concurrently with the language changes in the ordinance. Estimated annual increase in
revenues due to the proposed fee amendments is approximately$321,000.
An amendment to the placement of street vacation compensation is also proposed. Proceeds from
vacations are being placed in the Transportation Division operating fund (#003). Staff proposes
directing the compensation to the division's street construction fund (#317) in order to better
align the use of funds (construction of long-term assets) to the source of funds (sale of long-term
assets).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the proposed amendments to the franchise permit fee,plan review and inspection fee,
and street and alley vacation fee, incorporate them into an ordinance, and present the ordinance
for first reading. Approve, in same ordinance, placement of street and alley vacation
klifor
compensation in the street construction fund (#317).

VIA: -Kathy Keolker, Mayor
FROM: Gregg Zimmermai {` ministrator
STAFF CONTACT: Nenita Ching, Principal Financial & Administrative Analyst

SUBJECT: Plan Review/Inspection Fee, Street Vacation Fee,
Franchise Permit Fee
ISSUE:
't►` Should fees for franchise permit, plan review and inspection, and street and alley vacation be raised?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the proposed increases in fees for franchise permit, plan review and inspection, and
street and alley vacation (shown on the attached "Fee Schedule").
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The fee for a franchise permit is collected from utility franchises for work conducted on City streets.
This fee recovers staff cost to issue and process the permit and costs for inspection. It was created in
the early 1980s and has not been changed since. Staff proposes increasing the fee to be competitive
with franchise permit fees charged by other cities. (Kent, for example, charges a$300 street use
permit fee on utility companies, and its Council is currently considering raising it to $450). We
estimate that approximately$120,000 in additional revenues will be generated for Renton annually as a
result of the proposal to raise fees from $50 to $350.
The fee structure for street and utility plan review and inspection was created in 1990 and was
designed to capture some of the City's cost to review plans and inspect construction. Proposed
changes include an amendment to fees, construction cost threshold, and a definition of"construction
cost."
:rrr
Public Works Plan Review/Inspection Fees
Page 2 of 4
April 2,2007
The table below shows the dollar impact of proposed fee increases on a potential project. `"O
Construction Charges collected Charges collected
Cost with existing fee with proposed fee % increase
$100,000 $5,000 $6,000 20%
$250,000 $10,500 $14,000 33%
$1,000,000 $33,000 $44,000 35%
Most of the revenues generated by this fee go to utility funds. It is estimated that proposed fee
increases will result in a 30% - 40%increase in revenues ($194,000 - $259,000). A fee comparison
with surrounding cities indicates that Renton's fee for a $250,000 project, for instance, will be similar
to fees charged by Issaquah, Tukwila, and Bellevue. Many of the cities surveyed have additional
charges (i.e. hourly fee) for services in excess of the standard provided; whereas Renton provides
"unlimited" services.
The existing ordinance does not specify items to include in estimating construction cost, so staff is
proposing adding the following definition of"construction cost" to the ordinance:
"Construction cost, also known as the Engineer's Estimate or the Contractor's Bid, shall mean cost
estimate for all project related improvements outside of the building envelopes, including, but not
limited to, all costs required to construct the following: paved parking lots, private sidewalks or
walkways, private and public stormwater management facilities, temporary erosion and sedimentation
control facilities, water quality facilities, public and private streets, public and private sanitary sewers,
public water main improvements, required offsite street, bike, and pedestrian improvements, street
lighting improvements, required landscaping and street tree improvements, and site grading and
mobilization costs."
The proposal to increase the street and alley vacation fee is based on estimates of labor time involved
in processing street and alley vacation applications. Despite the fee increase, new revenues from this
activity are projected to be only around $7,000 because there are only a few applications received per
year. Compensation from street and alley vacations are currently placed in the Transportation
Division's operating fund (#003). Staff proposes directing the compensation to the division's street
construction fund (#317) in order to better align the use of funds (construction of long-term assets)
with the source of funds (sale of long-term assets).
CONCLUSION:
Fees for franchise permit, plan review and inspection, and street and alley vacation were created or
revised over 15 years ago, and have not been increased since. The increases proposed attempt to cover
the costs of providing services.

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner, Development
Services,City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton,Washington 98055. The request today is for preliminary
plat approval, site plan approval, and conditional use permit. The project was originally submitted without the
preliminary plat request, which is why it was assigned to be an administrative site plan approval. The
preliminary plat raised it to Hearing Examiner review.
The project is located on Union Avenue NE and is about 1.6 acres, which was developed in 1970 with a one-
story grocery store and an asphalt parking lot. Subsequent uses to the grocery store included a discount food
store and a succession of thrift stores. The site has been the same since its development with the building and
the parking. The building is currently vacant.
The uses surrounding the property are commercial to the north and east, and multi-family residential to the we:.,,, '
and single-family townhomes to the south. There is a new City of Renton park, Heather Downs that is located to
the south.
The area of the property is zoned Commercial Arterial(CA) with the exception of the park which becomes
residential zoning. This property is located within the NE 4th Business District, there are specific limitations
related to use and would limit on-site services on the property to Video Stores, Financial and Real Estate
Services and Repair Services, excluding any automobile repair.
The project was originally submitted as an all residential use,the applicant was requested to re-design to include
a mixed-use development on the east end of the property. The project now includes commercial and residential
at the east end of the property and two mixed-use buildings on each side of the new street and a stand-alone
residential at the back of the property. Townhouses would be built on the west end and apartment style
condominiums over the commercial and parking areas. The access to all of the units would be via a new public
street that would terminate in a hammerhead at the west end.
Approval of the project would result in the subdivision of the property into 22 townhouse lots, 2 lots for the
mixed use, 5 open space tracts located at the center of the property on each side of the road and at the ends of
the hammerhead, and a new public street coming off Union Avenue NE. The applicant requested and received
approval for a 24-foot wide public street, which was approved as long as curbs were rolled for emergency
vehicle accommodation.
The 22-townhouse lots meet zoning requirements, they would be developed into 3 and 4 consecutively attached
dwellings in six buildings. Each townhouse unit would have approximately 200 square feet of ground related
outdoor space at the rear of the unit. The landscape tracts would provide almost 5000 square feet of open spacNS

*g"' to the project. The 22 proposed townhouse units would have five different floor plans and be three stories in
height, which meets size and height requirements for this zone.
The two commercial projects would front on Union Avenue NE and be located in two 3-story buildings, one on
each side north and south of the access street. Parking is located in the back of each building and is shared with
the condominium units. All pervious areas of the site would be landscaped.
The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-significance—Mitigated for the project,
which included six mitigation measures. No appeals of the determination were filed.
Fire, Traffic and Park Mitigation fees were imposed on this project.
The project is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan criteria for commercial corridor designations. It meets
the requirements of the Community Design Element Policies and complies with the underlining Zoning
Designation requirements. The density is 31.06 du/ac, which is within the allowed range for the Business
District.
Parking for the Townhouses would provide more than required by the zoning regulations. Guests will most
likely have to park on the driveway aprons or on Union Avenue NE. No parking would be allowed on the new
24-foot wide street. If the commercial use is daytime only, there should be no parking issues. The
commercial/mixed-use is a requirement of the City,the applicant did not originally request it, in fact,questioned
the economic feasibility of commercial on what is essentially a dead-end street. In addition there is minimum
setback along Union so that there is no opportunity to have parking for a commercial use that is just a"drive up,
run in get a latte situation."
There will be landscaping, however it has been requested that a homeowner's association be established to be
sure that the landscaping is maintained for the common areas and street trees. If trees were damaged for any
reason, the homeowner's association would be responsible for replacing them.
The site is located within the Renton School District. The School District has indicated that they can
accommodate the approximately 16 additional students.
Public services can be provided readily, utilities are to the property and will be brought onto the property by the
applicant.
The proposed townhouses will provide housing to an area that still is seeing a lot of demand. It is located to the
rear of a property that is configured in a long narrow manner that would reduce the visibility of commercial uses
from Union Avenue NE, it is debatable whether or not the feasibility of the commercial that is actually located
on Union Avenue will be sufficient to support the various uses that are allowed. The stand-alone residential at
the rear of the property increases the likelihood of economic viability.
The newer project that abuts this site to the south is townhomes of basically the same configuration as these,
there is no commercial on that property and the property to the west is all residential.
The pedestrian connections are required to all abutting properties. There is a possibility for a connection to the
west, which is a parking area for the multi-family use, there can be connections to the south although the
abutting property is fenced along its north property line. They were not required to have connections. The
'rr streets are access easements on private property and again they are fenced at the ends of driveways that access
the townhomes.

The project is subject to the urban design regulations and must meet the intent of various elements of the ____
regulations. This does meet the intent of site design and street pattern,building location and orientation,
building entries that are to be from streets,transition to surrounding development, and a service element location
and design which would be private for the townhouses and located in the parking garages for the commercial
uses. This project does meet all required minimum standards required.
One of the commercial buildings appears to be right along the property line, there does not seem to be room for
a service lane in back of either building. There will be a fence between the rear open space and the property line
except where the common open space is located.
Johnathan Kurth, 1201 Monster Road SW, Ste. 320, Renton, WA 98057 stated that they agree with the planning
department, there were some challenges in trying to make a long narrow site work and become economically
viable. They have been pleased with the development of a good design.
Mike Davis, 1201 Monster Road SW, Ste. 320,Renton, WA 98057 stated that he appreciated the fact that Tracts
A and D should possibly be classified as open space. They had the same issues with the Cottages Plat in the
same sense that open space was not technically required but they labeled them as such, then it was very hard to
get the use changed. They were hoping that they could put something that stated the area as being"non
residential".
Upon questioning by the Examiner,he stated that they would have preferred this site to be all residential.
Kayren Kittrick,Development Services stated that all services are there,water, sewer and storm have been
handled. This has been scrutinized so far that there have not been any problems. They are tending to go more
favor of public streets rather than private driveways. There is enough activity and the tendency is to go towards''mir
public streets so the City has more control. If it is a private road, the Renton Police do not have the jurisdiction
or authority to go in and support no parking rules. Fire and Maintenance have been concerned about that.
Darrell Offe, 13932 SE 159th Place, Renton, WA 98058 stated that he wanted to try to answer the question
regarding back of house services for the buildings to the north. Exhibits 4 and 5 show the survey of the actual
edge of buildings to the northwest and northeast on the property line. The buildings are within feet of the
property line. The building on the east comes in on the upper part and that you can see on the cover sheet of the
Staff Report. There are no back of house services to the building on Union. On the building that comes off of
4th, this is basically a strip mall of food services, little shops and there is a circle parking lot coming in off of 4th
with no access to Union or into the subject property here today. There is no activity occurring at the back of
these buildings, all activity is to the front of the buildings.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:56 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant,Johnathan Kurth, filed a request for a series of approvals for a mixed-use complex. The
approvals sought are for a Preliminary Plat, Conditional Use and Site Plan.

March 8, 2007
Page 5
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit#1.
3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of
Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M).
4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
5. The subject site is located at 343 Union Avenue NE. The subject site is located on the west side of
Union Avenue a few parcels south of NE 4th Street.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of Commercial Corridor uses, but does not mandate such development
without consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned CA(Commercial Arterial).
8. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 2249 enacted in June 1966.
9. The subject site is approximately 1.61 acres or 69,959 square feet. The rectangular parcel is 165 feet
wide(north to south) along Union and 424 feet deep.
10. The site is flat. It contains no critical or sensitive areas and no significant trees.
'itary
11. A vacant, 17,640 square foot building and surrounding parking lot are located on the subject site. It had
been used as a grocery store and thrift shop at one time.
12. The applicant proposes developing a mixed-use complex consisting of freestanding attached townhomes
and condominium units over retail or commercial spaces. The buildings would flank an east-west street
that runs through the center of the site. The building facades would more or less mirror each other
across the new roadway. There would be two buildings located along Union with one north and one
south of the new street. These two buildings would contain commercial spaces on the ground floor at
Union and seven(7) condominiums above the commercial spaces and three townhomes west of the
commercial/condominium section. Interior parking would be located between the mixed-use
component and the townhomes. To the rear or west of those buildings would be six buildings,with
three north and three south of the new street. These buildings would be townhomes in 3-attached and 4-
attached arrangements.
13. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into 24 lots and 5 tracts. Twelve lots would be located
along the north side of the new access road and twelve lots would be located on the south side of the
roadway. One tract would be a decorative, circular, traffic island in the center of the road about halfway
in from Union Avenue. Two open space tracts would be located north and south of the traffic island.
Two additional open space tracts would be located at the extreme northwest and southwest corners of
the plat, adjacent to what will be a hammerhead turnaround.
14. Twenty-two (22) lots for townhomes will range in size from 1,275 square feet to 1,477 square feet. The
townhomes would be three stories and contain a variety of floor plans ranging in size from 2,017 square
Nosy' feet to 2,125 square feet. They would each have 200 square feet of outdoor space at the rear of each
building. They would each also contain garages.

File No.: LUA-06-138, PP, CU-A, SA-A, ECF
March 8, 2007
Page 6
15. The corner lots,the ones containing the mixed-use commercial and residential uses, would be 8,220
square feet(north of the street)and 8,270 square feet(south of the street). Fourteen units or seven in
each corner building will consist of two and three bedroom condominiums that would be located above
the corner commercial uses. There would be shared parking for the residential and commercial uses
located to the rear(west)of the ground floor commercial uses.
16. As noted above, the buildings on the north will generally mirror the buildings on the south side of the
street. Running east to west, on each side of the street the commercial building will be attached to a
triplex of townhomes. Then there will be open space(north and south of the traffic circle) followed by a
fourplex of townhomes, a narrow yard and another fourplex of townhomes. The buildings will vary in
height but all buildings will be 3-stories high with peaked roof and gable treatments. There will be
modulation and entrance porches and decks along the facades. The commercial facades will be located
along the street frontage.
17. Access to the site will be from a new east to west roadway. A modification has been granted to allow
the access road to be 24 feet wide and have rolled curbs. The rolled curbs are intended to allow
emergency vehicles to maneuver in and around the traffic island or temporarily stopped vehicles. The
road will end in a hammerhead turnaround. Curbs and 6-foot wide sidewalks with tree grates would be
located in easements in the front yard of each lot. The roadway could be extended to the west
depending on development proposals west of the subject site.
18. The proposed layout of this mixed-use complex makes use of various exceptions,district overlays and
conditional use permit approvals. Apai tcnents, whether rental or condominium ownership are permitted
in mixed use buildings when the ground floor commercial space is at least 30 feet deep. A Conditionals
Use Permit is required for standalone townhome units constructed in the commercial corridor along
Union Avenue if they do not contain commercial space. A Conditional Use Permit showing that they
meet that permit's criteria is required. The District Overlay for NE 4th Street requires certain design
features including modulation and facade treatment. While the CA zone permits a wide range of
commercial uses, the NE 4th Street Business District overlay restricts uses to things such as
entertainment rental, financial and real estate services and small-scale repair businesses but not
automobile repair.
19. The density for the NE 4th Street Business District and the CA zone permits a minimum density of 10
units per acre to a maximum of 60 units per acre when in a mixed-use project. This development would
be 31.06 dwelling units per acre after subtracting approximately 19,471 square feet for roadways. The
density is calculated for the number of dwelling units(36) and not the number of proposed lots(24).
20. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately 16 school age children. These students would be spread across the grades and would be
assigned on a space available basis.
21. The development will generate increased traffic over the current vacant property.
22. The existing lot has more open space but will have less impermeable area after redevelopment. An
analysis found that the proposal is exempt from detention and water quality treatment.
23 Sewer and domestic water will be provided by the City and services are available along Union Avenue.
These services will have to be extended into the project site. '

CONCLUSIONS:
Preliminary Plat
1. The proposed Preliminary Plat appears to serve the public use and interest. The proposed plat will
permit a mix of uses on a commercially zoned parcel. The plat would divide the subject site to allow
individual ownership of smaller townhome lots on the interior of the site while creating two larger lots
for mixed-use commercial and residential uses along Union Avenue NE. This division will meet the
goals and policies of the comprehensive plan for commercial and urban mixed-use developments along
and adjacent to NE 4th Street.
2. The plat will provide an opportunity to own homes with individually owned ground floor open space but
smaller, limited yards for those who do not want large yards and extensive maintenance responsibilities.
The larger lots will provide both commercial services immediately adjacent to the residential
component, hopefully providing needed urban services that reduce the need for extra vehicle trips,and
residential condominium ownership opportunities, again,providing ownership opportunities rather than
rental opportunities for housing.
3. The redevelopment of this underutilized site will add to the tax base of the City. The ERC imposed
mitigation fees to help offset the impacts of this additional development on existing City services. The
additional impacts such as noise and traffic were anticipated when the property was designated for
commercial and potential mixed use in the comprehensive plan and when zoning was applied allowing
such uses.
4. The lots are rectangular and will be served by a public street. The plat provides open space components
providing breaks in the building facades and relief from buildings that are otherwise very close to the
street. The plat appears to have reasonable access for residents and a hammerhead turnaround for
emergency vehicles. The traffic circle provides an element of additional visual interest as well as
providing a limitation to excessive speed on a narrow roadway.
5. There are suitable facilities to serve the site with water and sewer utilities.
Conditional Use Permit
6. Normally, residential buildings located along Union Avenue in the NE 4th District must be attached to
or included within buildings containing a commercial component. "Standalone" residential buildings
may be permitted by conditional use permit along Union Avenue NE. The intent is to make sure that
residential uses do not displace the favored commercial uses in the CA zone. In this case, the applicant
and staff agree that the lack of commercial exposure for portions of the lot interior to Union Avenue
would be unsuitable for commercial use.
7. The applicant for a Conditional Use Permit must demonstrate that the use is in the public interest,will
not impair the health, safety or welfare of the general public and is in compliance with the criteria found
in Section 4-31-36(C), which provides in part that:
a. The proposal generally conforms to the Comprehensive Plan;
1,4100' b. There is a general community need for the proposed use at the proposed location;
c. There will be no undue impacts on adjacent property;

d. The proposed use is compatible in scale with the adjacent residential uses, if any;
e. Parking, unless otherwise permitted, will not occur in the required yards;
f. Traffic and pedestrian circulation will be safe and adequate for the proposed project;
g. Noise, light and glare will not cause an adverse affect on neighboring property;
h. Landscaping shall be sufficient to buffer the use from rights-of-way and neighboring property
where appropriate; and
i. Adequate public services are available to serve the proposal.
The requested conditional use appears justified.
8. The mixed-use project appears to comply with the goals and policies of the Commercial Corridor
designation in the comprehensive plan. The proposal will contain commercial uses along Union but
develop them in conjunction with both attached residential uses above and west of the commercial uses.
The interior of the site of this narrow site was considered unsuitable for additional commercial uses and
urban goals suggest a mix of commercial and residential uses to provide convenience for the residents
and a built-in clientele for the commercial uses.
9. The CA zoning permits residential uses in consort with commercial uses and permits standalone
residential units in the CA zone. The proposed townhomes appear suitable and are permitted by the
underlying zoning.
10. The applicant has described a demand for this type of housing and the City's policies appear to support
such uses. The site is somewhat removed from the heavily traveled NE 4th corridor and Union itself is
not a through street, limiting the passersby on that street.
11. There are a variety of uses adjacent to the subject site. The proposal will provide a transition between
the higher intensity commercial uses along NE 4th and the single-family and other residential uses
adjacent to the site. The buildings are scaled similarly to single-family uses and commercial uses could
actually be taller in some cases. The modulations in facades and rooflines as well as the setbacks
provided by the included rear yard open space would also aid in the transition between commercial,
larger buildings and these residential uses and the less intense nearby residential uses.
12. Parking will be contained in individual garages as well as common garages and will not encroach into
yard space. The narrow street will not support parking and will be kept clear for general and emergency
access. Sidewalks will separate pedestrians from vehicles.
13. Aside from the short-lived construction noise,there will be the normal hubbub associated with
residential development and low-scale, low intensity commercial uses. There will be additional traffic
but local streets should be able to handle the additional load and the applicant will be contributing
mitigation fees to help offset some traffic impacts.
14. The project appears to be well landscaped and Code requires compliance with certain criteria making
sure that the proposal will fit in with the community.

Now
15. As noted, the site is served by City infrastructure for water and sewer service.
16. In addition, Section 4-9-030(K)provides additional criteria for standalone uses. These criteria in
summary contain the following guidance:
Stand-alone residential use may not be located within 150 feet of an adjacent or abutting arterial street.
This includes Sunset Boulevard, Duvall Avenue, Anacortes Avenue, or Union Avenue in the Sunset
Business District; NE 4th Street, Union Avenue, or Duvall Avenue in the NE 4th Street Business District;
and Puget Drive or South Benson Road in the Puget Drive Business District, as shown on the Business
District Maps in RMC 4-3-040.
A mix of commercial, service, and residential uses exist within a 150-foot radius of the proposed
residential use.
Commercial use of the property is not feasible for reasons including, but not limited to: lack of
commercial frontage, lack of access, critical areas and/or critical area buffers, or property configuration.
Residential use will augment the primary purpose of the commercial arterial zone by adding a
pedestrian oriented land use that provides a physical connection between residential and commercial
uses.
The use provides a transition between commercial and lower density R-10 and R-8 zoned areas and
provides a visual,pedestrian, and vehicular connection from the residential zoned areas to the
Commercial Arterial zoned areas.
Development standards from RMC 4-3-040F ["Development Standards for Uses Located Within the
Northeast Fourth Street...Business District"] are met unless the applicant opts for a planned urban
development, subject to RMC 4-9-150. Pedestrian connection standards from this section must be met
'+tirr without modification.
17. The standalone uses are approximately 230 feet from Union and fall outside of the 150-foot prohibited
area. This allows commercial uses to be located along Union while the less exposed internal portion of
the site will be providing housing. There are commercial uses within 150 feet of the proposed
residential uses. As noted, the applicant did not believe commercial uses would be viable in this
location and cited the failed prior uses of the site,the lack of commercial exposure and the limited
traffic along Union south of NE 4th Street. The applicant did, although reluctantly, add commercial uses
along Union. The residents could prove to be customers of the commercial uses at the site and along
NE 4th, north of the site. The residential uses do provide a reasonable transition between more intense
commercial uses and the arterial traffic carried along NE 4th and the less intense residential uses south of
the site. Abrupt transitions between commercial uses and single family residential uses do not always
prove popular due to noise and other nuisance issues.
Site Plan
18. In addition to the proposed plat and the fact that the proposed use requires a Conditional Use Permit the
subject site is also subject to Site Plan Review although in some cases the criteria mirror some of those
already considered in the other reviews. The site plan ordinance provides a number of specific criteria
for reviewing a site plan. Those criteria are generally represented in part by the following enumeration:
a. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan;
b. Conformance with the Building and Zoning Codes;
lofty
c. Mitigation of impacts on surrounding properties and uses;
Galloway at the Highlands Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-06-138, PP, CU-A,SA-A, ECF
March 8, 2007
Page 10
d. Mitigation of the impacts of the proposal on the subject site itself;
e. Conservation of property values;
f. Provision for safe and efficient vehicle and pedestrian circulation;
g. Provision of adequate light and air;
h. Adequacy of public services to accommodate the proposed use;
The proposed use satisfies these and other particulars of the ordinance.
19. The proposal conforms to both the goals and policies of the comprehensive plan as well as the CA
Zoning regulations. The mixed-use commercial component as well as the interior townhomes are
permitted since the buildings feature the appropriate design features and are appropriately located in
juxtaposition to Union and NE 4th Street and its other commercial uses.
20. The buildings are appropriately scaled for the CA zone and for their locations on the subject site. The
commercial components comply with the 50-foot height limits while the residential buildings comply
with the 35-foot height limits imposed in the CA zone.
21. The proposal contains buildings that close on the street but contain modulations and design features
such as peaked roofs, decks and porches that provide visual interest. There is open space included in ti
lots as well as common open space near the center of the project as well as open space near the end of
the roadway. There should be sufficient light and air although the narrow street will be somewhat
limiting.
22. The confined nature of the project on a narrow lot should not adversely affect neighboring properties.
There will be rear yard setbacks created by the open space providing separation from adjacent uses.
23. The road and sidewalks provide reasonable circulation for residents both in vehicles and on foot.
Emergency access has been accommodated on the narrow street with rolled curbs and the hammerhead
turnaround. Pedestrian connections to adjacent property are limited by existing development patterns in
those areas. Code limits parking to 1.75 stalls per unit while the applicant has proposed 1.78 stalls. The
additional parking is anticipated to provide shared parking for the residential units and the commercial
units in the two mixed use commercial-residential buildings and due to the fact that on-street parking
will be limited due to the narrow street.
24. As noted, the site is served by City utilities, which are available along Union. They would be extended
into the new street to serve the properties interior to Union.
District B Urban Center Design Criteria
25. Again, many of these criteria mirror those already reviewed but there are some specific criteria. In
summary, the criteria are:
Galloway at the Highlands Preliminary Plat

March 8, 2007
Page 11
Nosy
1. create and maintain a safe, convenient network of streets of varying dimensions for vehicle
circulation; and provide service to businesses; maintain existing grid street pattern.
2. provide an appropriate transition between buildings,parking areas, and other land uses and the
street; and increase privacy for residential uses located near the street; orient Buildings to the
street with clear connections to the sidewalk.
3. ensure that building entries further the pedestrian nature of the fronting sidewalk and the urban
character of the district; primary entrance of each building shall be located on the facade facing
a street.
4. redevelopment projects respect the character and value of Renton's long-established,existing
neighborhoods are preserved; achieve a compatible transition where new buildings differ from
surrounding development
5. reduce the potential negative impacts of service elements(i.e., waste receptacles, loading docks)
by locating service and loading areas away from high-volume pedestrian areas, and screening
them from view in high visibility areas.
6. incorporate various modes of transportation, including public mass transit, in order to reduce
traffic volumes and other impacts from vehicles; ensure sufficient parking is provided
7. maintain a contiguous,uninterrupted sidewalk by minimizing, consolidating and/or eliminating
vehicular access off streets within pedestrian environments and/or designated pedestrian-
oriented streets; parking lots and garages shall be accessed from alleys when available.
8. have areas suitable for both passive and active recreation by residents, workers, and visitors;
provide these areas in sufficient amounts and in convenient locations; and provide the
opportunity for community gathering in places centrally located and designed to encourage such
activity.
9. landscaping is intended to reinforce the architecture or concept of the area; provide visual and
climatic relief in areas of expansive paving or structures; channelize and define logical areas of
pedestrian and vehicular circulation; and add to the aesthetic enjoyment of the area by the
community; street trees are required and shall be between the curb and buildings.
10. recreation areas and common open space be provided; equal to 150 square feet per unit of which
100 square feet are contiguous. Such space may include porches, balconies, yards, and decks.
11. ensure that buildings are not bland and visually appear to be at a human scale; and ensure that
all sides of a building, that can be seen by the public, are visually interesting; facades shall
include modulation or articulation; untreated blank walls visible from public streets, sidewalks,
or interior pedestrian pathways are prohibited; use materials that reduce the visual bulk of large
buildings; and encourage the use of materials that add visual interest to the neighborhood.
26. The proposal would provide a new right-angle street intersecting Union but due to existing development
currently there would be no continuation of a street grid pattern. The new street could be continued
west at some point in the future. Similarly, constraints on the site prevent the use of alleys. The lot is
too narrow to provide alleys and even the main street has been reduced in width due to that constraint.
Pedestrians will be accommodated on sidewalks and parking will occur in garages and not in front of
either the residential or commercial buildings. Pedestrians will be able to circulate within the complex,
to the proposal's commercial spaces and to the NE 4th Street corridor.
27. Landscaping and building design features will be used to reduce the apparent bulk of the buildings and
avoid a "looming" affect over the streetscape. Landscaping will be provided along the street and in the
open space areas. The complex provides a mix of public and private open spaces. Open space areas
will provide recreational opportunities as well as providing landscape relief The buildings have
"r✓ porches and other articulations and modulations as well as varied rooflines to improve appearance. The
exterior treatment will provide definition and the facades of opposing units will mirror one another
providing some symmetry coupled with the articulation and modulation differences.

28. In conclusion, the proposal is modest in size but contains a number of complex elements including
commercial spaces, shared parking, condominium and townhome ownership opportunities, narrow
streets, open space and traffic island. The project should appeal to those seeking urban living and
residential ownership.

The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte(private one-on-one) communications may occur
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the
evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as
Appeals to the City Council.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Since the 1970s, punchboards have been prohibited in the City of Renton. Since that time, the gambling
laws have changed significantly. There have been a number of court cases indicating that, while cities
retain the power to absolutely prohibit gambling activities,the city may not absolutely prohibit a type of
gambling or gambling at a certain location. Therefore, the legality of the city's prohibition on
punchboards is questionable.
The original purpose of prohibiting punchboards was to limit what was believed to be a substantial risk
of cheating. At that time, punchboards and pulltabs were the only gambling activities allowed. Now, with
the proliferation of the state lottery, and many casinos including reservation based casinos,there are
myriad gambling activities available. It is now felt that the risk originally presented by punchboards no
longer exists.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the ordinance removing the prohibition on punchboards.

ISSUE:
Should the City approve the Consultant Agreement with Roth Hill Engineering Partners, in
the amount of$101,832, for services related to the Sanitary Sewer Model Conversion/
Ni'""' Geodatabase Development project?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Consultant Agreement with Roth Hill Engineering Partners, in the amount of
$101,832, for services related to the Sanitary Sewer Model Conversion/Geodatabase
Development project.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
As part of King County's Inflow/Infiltration program, beginning in 2000, the City received
flow-monitoring data that allowed for the development of a complete hydraulic model of
its sanitary sewer system. Roth Hill Engineering Partners developed this model between
2004 and 2006. The City decided to utilize the same hydraulic modeling software that
King County utilizes, for consistency, as we compared flows within each other's system.
This has proven very beneficial as we monitor the impacts of the county flows on our local
system.
As we were completing the model in 2006, the software provider, DHI, introduced a new
product that has a direct database interface which is compatible with the City's system for
data management. The program is known as Mike Urban, and will allow us to maintain
our hydraulic model data in the same place and format as our Geodatabase. Currently our
', data resides in simple Access tables and graphically in AutoCAD. Maintaining data in two
Council/Geodatabase Mike Urban

Page 2 of 2
places instead of one is not as efficient, and increases risks of errors. The Mike Urban ,
program provides an efficient method to convert our current data into one new database
and update our hydraulic model.
This scope of work covers the first phase, which includes one of our eight modeling basins
as a pilot. We will use the results from the pilot to determine the best methodology for
completing the remaining modeling basins.
The contract for the initial pilot is in the amount of$101,832. There is $300,000 budgeted
in the approved 2007 Sanitary Sewer Main Replacement/Rehabilitation CIP budget
(426.000400.018.5960.0035.65.045300) to complete all of the data conversion for the
eight modeling basins. The remaining balance should be sufficient to complete the
conversions of all modeling basins.
Roth Hill Engineering Partners was selected from the approved 2007 Utility Systems
Annual Consultant Engineering Roster to perform the work due to its prior work on
establishing the hydraulic model.
CONCLUSION:
The conversion of the hydraulic modeling data into Mike Urban accomplishes our goals of
maintaining our data in a single source and to have that data in a format available for a
variety of uses. This consultant agreement with Roth Hill Engineering Partners to pilot
one of the modeling basins will allow us to determine the best methodology for the overall
data transfer and complete the data transfer for one of the eight modeling basins.

Sanitary Sewer Model Conversion/Geodatabase Development
Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC
March 2007
The following tasks, under this Scope of Services, are primarily for the initial phases relating to
the conversion of sewer system hydraulic model data and development of a Geodatabase for
the CITY of Renton (CITY). The consultant, ROTH HILL Engineering Partners, LLC is referred
to as ROTH HILL in this agreement. The subconsultant DHI Water& Environment, Inc. is
referred to as DHI in this agreement. ROTH HILL is partnered with DHI, to provide assistance
with the proposal.
The proposed services are being provided to assist the CITY with the conversion from DHI's
MOUSE modeling software format to the GIS-based MIKE URBAN format of several existing
modeling scenarios, such as the 2001, 2005 and Ultimate Models that represent the service
area, planning data and system features for each scenario. This conversion will enable the
CITY to integrate the hydraulic modeling data with other GIS based datasets. The subject
MOUSE data currently resides on the server at ROTH HILL's office. ROTH HILL has the MIKE
URBAN Software in-house to process the MOUSE data.
Now The first phase of this project is limited to a single pilot sewer model basin conversion for testing
purposes. The model basin information will be extracted from the existing MOUSE model data
and verified using confirmation measures. The data will then be added to an Enterprise
Repository Geodatabase for the internal CITY team's use. Future uses may include data base
repository, system map development and coordinate with the Maintenance Management
System (MMS)for Operations. The tasks utilized for this effort will be evaluated and
summarized in a program to complete the remaining model basins.
The next phase (Phase 2), not currently scoped, will include the tasks for the entire model
conversion and the full Enterprise Repository Geodatabase, as summarized in the Program
Recommendations.
Phase 1 —Pilot Basin Conversion, Geodatabase Development and Program
Recommendations
Task 1 — Pilot Model Basin Conversion
1. Use selection query methods within the MOUSE software to extract selected basin, and
all associated relevant model data.
a. Create a MOUSE model of only the selected model basin, by creating a scenario
within the larger 2001 Model in which all other basins have been deleted.
Working with CITY staff, determine system limits to be included in the model
basin for hydraulic modeling purposes.
b. Define attachment of inflows and outfalls from the larger model.

2. Use MIKE URBAN import capabilities to generate a personal geodatabase, to store
sewer system data.
a. Establish the spatial reference and map/model units that will be selected and
standardized upon (i.e.: feet vs. meters).
b. Attributes in the MOUSE model will be properly mapped to the MIKE URBAN
geospatial datasets and tables during this process.
3. Review/verify MIKE URBAN model data and results match information from MOUSE
model (2001 Model).
a. Ensure no data was lost in the conversion, by checking the model data for all
relevant model object types, such as nodes, links, boundary conditions, diurnal
patterns, etc.
b. Run both runoff and network simulations in both the original MOUSE and MIKE
URBAN models.
c. Compare the generated CRF (Catchment Result File) and PRF (PipeFlow Result
File) result files in MIKE View, and verify that the results for each program are
consistent.
4. Research, identify, and correct any discrepancies.
5. Perform field survey to identify horizontal and vertical locations of sanitary sewer
manholes along CITY interceptors within the pilot basin. Obtain measure downs to
compute invert elevations for the pipes in each surveyed manhole. Within Pilot Model
Basin 35, interceptor manholes will specifically include those located on the main trunk
within NE Sunset Boulevard between Union Avenue NE and 144th Avenue NE, and
manholes located on Duvall Avenue NE between NE Sunset Boulevard and NE 23rd '
Street. A few additional manholes will be surveyed adjacent and north of NE Sunset
Boulevard along Union Avenue NE,just east of Anacortes Avenue NE, and along Field
Avenue NE. Field data will be processed and converted to a format for import to the
sewer model.
6. For pilot model basin only, attach pipe and manhole data constructed after development
of the 2001 Model, working closely with CITY to add appropriate data. This data will be
attached under a separate scenario, to create the "Current" Model. Re-route and update
system to account for changes since 2001, including lift stations. Incorporate new
survey data into the model. Incorporate new 2006 system data from CITY utilizing
physical data from existing 2005 Model as appropriate. Re-run model and verify results.
7. Define procedure for assigning sewage flows (dry and wet weather)to Current Model,
and assign for pilot model basin.
8. Create an Ultimate Model using MOUSE for the pilot model basin, and convert to MIKE
URBAN using steps identified above for the 2001 pilot model basin. The existing
Ultimate Model was created as part of the MOUSE Model development and represents
the future sewer service area with 2030 planning values, such as population and
employment projections. ROTH HILL will update the Ultimate Model pilot basin using
the data from the Current Model as needed.
9. Run Ultimate Model for pilot model basin in MIKE URBAN and verify that results are
consistent with Ultimate MOUSE Model, per procedure identified for 2001 Model pilot
model basin. Research, identify, and correct any discrepancies.

Memorandum of Understanding
Regarding Airport Issues
Cities of Renton & Mercer Island
Background: RENTON is preparing the Airport Layout Plan update to the 1997 Airport
Master Plan. The City's contracted Airport planning consultant has included in the draft
Master Plan an alternative to add a corporate aviation center to the businesses based at
the Airport, which is consistent with the adopted 2005 Development Study
Recommendations. Residents of Renton neighborhoods and of Mercer Island have
expressed the need for more information and a more in-depth study of the potential
impacts of the Airport Layout Plan alternatives to fully understand the options available
for Airport development.
The cities of RENTON and MERCER ISLAND believe it is in their mutual interest to
work cooperatively and amicably to ensure that both Cities' interests are thoroughly
considered; that any future development at the Airport is designed to manage noise to the
extent possible, is consistent with FAA requirements, is consistent with RENTON'S
business plan, preserves the Airport as fiscally self-sustaining; and that residents of both
Cities are appropriately informed about future development plans.
Purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding: Both Cities desire to build on their
history of working cooperatively together to solve problems of mutual interest. To that
end, the Cities agree on the following principles, and wish to express their intent to
collaborate on tasks that will achieve these ends:
1. It is in each City's interest to act cooperatively with the other on potential Airport
development plans.
2. Both Cities have a responsibility to their citizens to fully understand the options
available for Airport development, and the potential impacts on residents and
Airport businesses.
3. Both Cities believe the best path to the optimal Airport development plan is a
process that is understood by the affected citizens and considers their input.
4. Renton and Mercer Island have complementary capabilities and resources, and the
skills to apply these in a collaborative effort.
5. Each City can assist the other in ensuring that the Airport development plan that is
ultimately approved meets, to the greatest extent possible, each City's objectives.
Actions Already Taken: The Cities have already made considerable progress working
together to inform their communities of the options for Airport development, and to
identify the issues of greatest concern.
• RENTON hosted informational meetings for MERCER ISLAND's Mayor, Deputy
Mayor, executive staff and a community liaison.
• RENTON has provided copies of all Airport planning documents to Mercer Island
elected officials, staff and community leaders.
• The Mayors of MERCER ISLAND and RENTON will prepare"op/ed" articles
promoting this partnership and submit them for publication in their respective
community newspapers.
• The MERCER ISLAND representative to the RAAC and the RENTON
Councilmember who is also a voting member of the RAAC will discuss with the
RAAC membership the substance of this Memo of Understanding and the Cities'
decision to proceed collaboratively.
• MERCER ISLAND will provide RENTON with a summary of issues of concern to
its residents that were raised at the community meeting held on Mercer Island on
January 29, 2007.
• MERCER ISLAND will identify key questions raised at the January 29 community
meeting that remain unanswered and provide these to RENTON. Together the staffs
of the Cities will determine which of these key questions can be satisfactorily
answered at this time, and which require additional data.
• On or before April 30, 2007, with prior review and assistance from MERCER
ISLAND on ways to disseminate, RENTON will provide answers to the questions
that the staffs of the Cities deem appropriate to answer at this time.
• The RENTON City Council will direct the RAAC to refrain from making a formal
recommendation on Airport development until after results of an aircraft noise study
are delivered &vetted with BOTH CITIES. However, the process of vetting the
additional noise information must be concluded at the earliest time possible.
• Staff of RENTON and MERCER ISLAND will develop a draft scope of work for a
noise study to be conducted by a jointly-selected consulting firm. The cities will seek
qualifications from consulting firms, including but not limited to the firm of Harris
Miller Miller&Hanson, based on the article by the firm's President Mary Ellen
Eagan entitled, "Using Supplemental Metrics to Communicate Aircraft Noise
Effects" (Transportation Research Board,Nov. 10, 2006).
• The cities may elect to solicit public input for the study scope and will share the
information gathered from such public input.
• RENTON will provide the draft work scope to the RAAC and solicit the RAAC's
comments.
• BOTH CITIES' staffs will propose an equitable cost-sharing arrangement for the
noise study, and will submit to their City Councils a contract to retain the consultant.
• RENTON will manage the noise study contract.
• MERCER ISLAND will host an informational meeting for its residents, where the
selected noise study consultant will describe the firm's experience in analyzing noise
impacts from airports similar to Renton's, the proposed methodology for the noise
study and the nature and utility of results of that study, and will solicit participants'
input on the scope of the noise study.
• Upon receipt of the noise study results, staff of BOTH CITIES will meet and
collaborate on the best way to use those results and to disseminate the results to
affected residents and decision makers.
• BOTH CITIES will host community meeting(s) at the conclusion of the noise study,
at which time staffs of the CITIES will assist the noise consultant in presenting results
and answering citizens' questions.

Madam Mayor,
The purpose of this letter is two-fold; first it serves as a formal request for Pro-Flight to occupy any
space that is, or will become, available at the Airport in the ramp "B" or"C" areas. Secondly, it is
meant to serve as a defense mechanism for the City to delay or prevent outside entities from
demanding space on the Airport through a legal "loophole"by establishing Pro-Flight's previously
stated requests to occupy the very same space. Pro-Flight feels strongly that it would be inappropriate
to make any significant changes in airport use, space utilization or occupancy of layout and uses
without the Airport Layout Plan being finalized.
Consideration
The "B Ramp" area has been used as a staging area by transient aircraft, with the Airport's knowledge
and support, since Boeing relinquished the property. This area is the only un-leased and unoccupied
area on the field large enough to accommodate multiple jet aircraft.
It is Pro-Flight's understanding that, as a reliever airport for Boeing Field and SeaTac, space for this
type of aircraft is a requirement of our Airport definition. The point being clarified is that, though some
might consider this to be un-leased and therefore available for a request of occupancy, it serves a
required purpose of the Airport definition and therefore must be considered unavailable, until after the
Airport Layout Plan has been developed and approved, which would provide an alternative location for
this required purpose. Worthy of further clarity as well is the fact that, though Pro-Flight is the major
service provider to the jet aircraft that frequent this ramp area, it is the aircraft that are utilizing the
area.
Position
Pro-Flight has leased space on the "C Ramp" since 2004. Our company desires to obtain a long-term
lease on either area at this time, or anytime, before or after the Airport Layout Plan and related public
determination of solution is reached, if somehow there is a technicality that makes this a possibility.
We have made many verbal requests to develop the aforementioned areas over the past several years,
which Ryan Zulauf can validate. We were excited with the RFP process, as this gave us an avenue to
formalize and deliver our comprehensive solution to the Airport, City and Community alike.
However, we are now concerned, based on conversations within the RAAC, City Council meetings,
and, most recently, documents released from the City Council Retreat which suggest that the RFP
process is no longer in consideration, and that other entities have submitted proposals through other
avenues,which the Airport and City are obligated to consider, and thereby potentially award contracts.
Please understand that Pro-Flight Aviation Inc. was not made aware that an alternative form of
proposal could be submitted. This possibility prompted the writing of this letter.
Pro-Flight Aviation Inc. understands that if Airport property is not being utilized, and entities such as
Pro-Flight,Aerodyne, Galvin's Flying Service, or Kenmore Air show interest in occupying such non-
utilized space, the City has an FAA mandated requirement to allow such Entities conditional
occupation through a formalized agreement. However, the document released at the City council
retreat and RAAC meeting on March 13, 2007 states, "the city is obligated to giving serious
consideration to any proposals that are made to the Airport."and mentions only Galvin's Flying
Service and Kenmore Air by name. Furthermore. Councilwoman Palmer stated in the March 13th
RAAC meeting"if someone comes to us with a check in hand ...we will not be able to say 'no' for
long". Pro-Flight, and no doubt the other RFP respondents, would be willing to write just such a check
once an amount is properly negotiated and established.
Restated,Pro-Flight Aviation, Inc. is already occupying and leasing a portion of this space, and has
repeatedly requested to expand in this area, through our RFP response and previous conversations.
Additionally, the Airport is utilizing the aforementioned portions of"C Ramp" to provide for General
Aviation tie down space and any change to this utilization should be done through an approval of a
new Airport Layout Plan.
These statements are to clarify Pro-Flight's position that these areas cannot be considered
"unoccupied" or "unused" as Pro-Flight Aviation and other entities have existing occupation
agreements with the Airport in these locations. We understand, appreciate and support that the Airport
and affected Communities desire to create a comprehensive plan before making changes to the current
use of this space, and this document should be considered an aid to this current and ongoing effort.
Additionally, Pro-Flight Aviation cannot allow our continuing need to occupy Airport Property to be
undermined by a technicality that now seems to exist, and is seemingly being supported. Should it be
determined that such a technicality exists that would allow any entity to engage in an agreement with
the City, circumventing the existing and ongoing processes, including the RFP process, then this letter
should be taken as our very serious request and response to submit a proposal to occupy and develop
this space under this technicality in order to meet Pro-Flight's ongoing, and previously well-
communicated need to expand.
Prior History Creating Current Concerns
Pro-Flight Aviation has been an Airport tenant in good standing for over twelve years. When Action
Aviation went out of business in 2003, Pro-Flight began selling Jet fuel at the insistence of the Airport.
Pro-Flight was then mandated by the Airport to build a Fuel Farm, under strict regulation, in order to
promote, and meet the demand of jet aircraft commerce that existed, and is currently being discussed.
Pro-Flight has made every effort to be consistently good tenants, citizens, and aviators. We have
worked with the Airport and City to improve the airport environment and community relations since
our tenancy began. We have not filed formal complaints while Air-O, our competitor in the fuel
business,fails to meet the standards enforced upon us, to this day. We have not filed formal
complaints while Acu-Wings, our competitor in the flight training business, was given preferential
treatment by being allowed to operate without an operating permit and below the established minimum
airport standards.
We became aware Friday, and only by our questioning of activities on the B ramp, that the airport is
improving facilities for Acu-Wings, and in doing such, moving ahead with changes in ramp space
allocation in the only area currently available to meet the reliever airport requirement of providing
space for jet aircraft to locate after landing.
The Airport's change process, including the ALP, the RFP and the ongoing communication to the
Public regarding plans and strategy could have, in Pro-Flight's opinion, been handled so much better.
Our lack of being proactively informed of the Acu-Wings instigated changes is to us, yet another
example.
Please know that Pro-Flight understands and values the relationship we have with the City and Airport
management alike, however we are now questioning if this is a mutually shared perspective. If we have
done something wrong, or offended you in any way, or need to change our approach, or have failed to
meet your expectation, please inform us so we can change. Our family business is very important to us,
and we want it to be important for you too.
The only thing we have ever desired, and must begin to demand, is a level playing field. If there are
opportunities for Pro-Flight to achieve our desired expansion at the Airport as stated above, outside of
the current communicated and understood methods,please inform us so that we may participate.
Additionally, please be very cognizant that making changes to the Airport layout, especially as they
pertain to the airport's existing obligations, could affect the continued success of aircraft operations
and existing tenants, without having an approved, well communicated Airport Layout Plan.
