Annexation, Maple Valley
Hwy
Citizen Comment: Hulten - Bill Hulten, 13836 SE 158th St., Renton, 98058, stated that last week, Council
New Life - Aqua Barn asked about the interest of the Maple Ridge Estates property owners in annexing
Annexation, Maple Valley to Renton as part of the New Life -Aqua Barn Annexation, if the boundary was
Hwy expanded to include the neighborhood. Pointing out that he does not want the
neighborhood's inclusion to negatively affect the annexation effort, Mr. Hulten
reported that the data he collected shows the strength of the interest of a strong
majority of the property owners, and a formal petition would yield signatures
from homeowners representing greater than 60 percent of the assessed valuation
of the neighborhood. However, he noted that the data is not as complete as he
would like it to be.
June 1 I,2007 Renton City Council Minutes Page 198
Continuing, Mr.Hulten reported that of the property owners who were reached
over the past week, 83 percent of the assessed valuation of the property owned
by those expressing interest in annexation is represented. Of the total assessed
valuation of Maple Ridge Estates, 55 percent is represented by respondents
expressing interest in annexation. Mr. Hulten expressed his hope that Maple
Ridge Estates will become part of the City of Renton in the near future.
Citizen Comment: Dideon - Scott Dideon, 14013 SE 159th Pl.,Renton, 98058,voiced his support for
New Life - Aqua Barn including Maple Ridge Estates in the New Life - Aqua Barn Annexation. He
Annexation, Maple Valley noted that a majority of the neighborhood's homeowners voted against the
Hwy Fairwood Incorporation.
Citizen Comment: Lichty- Loran Lichty, 15711 152nd Ave. SE, Renton, 98058, representing New Life
New Life -Aqua Barn Church, the proponent of the New Life -Aqua Barn Annexation, expressed his
Annexation, Maple Valley appreciation for the efforts of previous speaker Bill Hulten to determine the
Hwy interest of the Maple Ridge Estates residents in annexing to Renton. He noted
his hesitations to include the neighborhood in the annexation as follows: 1) the
goal of 60 percent favorable property value by Maple Ridge Estates was not
met; 2)the lack of specific response from the 25 properties located beyond
Maple Ridge Estates that are only accessible through the neighborhood; and 3)
the opposition by the individuals seeking to include Maple Ridge Estates into a
future city incorporation is unknown and not currently in opposition of the
subject annexation. (See page 199 for discussion concerning this matter.)

Annexation: New Life- Aqua FROM THE TABLE THE NEW LIFE -AQUA BARN ANNEXATION.
Barn, Maple Valley Hwy CARRIED.
Economic Development Administrator Pietsch stated that the decision before
Council is whether to move forward with the New Life - Aqua Barn Annexation
boundary as is, or to expand the boundary to include the Maple Ridge Estates
area. He pointed out that as far as he knows, the property owners of parcels
located south of Maple Ridge Estates, the only access for which is through
Maple Ridge Estates, have not been contacted regarding their interest in
annexation to Renton. Mr. Pietsch also pointed out that the inclusion of the
Elliot Farms subdivision is not recommended.
In response to Council inquiries, Mr. Pietsch stated that Maple Ridge Estates
cannot pursue annexation on its own as it is not timely, and the subdivision is
not located directly adjacent to the City. In regards to the subject annexation,
he explained that once the 60%petition is circulated, the signatures collected
are good for 180 days. Mr. Pietsch indicated that Maple Ridge Estates can ask
the Boundary Review Board (BRB) for removal from the Fairwood
Incorporation's boundaries. Mr. Pietsch further noted that the Elliott Farms
subdivision will not technically become an unincorporated island and most
likely will not be included in the subject annexation by the BRB.
Councilmembers Persson and Clawson each noted the difficulty of the decision.
Mr. Corman inquired if anyone was present in the audience who resides in the
subdivision to the south of Maple Ridge Estates and can discuss the road that
accesses the subdivision.
Sylvia Dailey, 13970 SE 159th Pl., Renton, 98058, noted that her residence is
located on the street in question, as well as her son's (previous speaker Scott
Dideon). She explained that the reason the area was thought to be a separate
subdivision is because the 25 properties are called View Point at Maple Ridge
Estates. Ms. Dailey reported that she and her son visited homes along SE 159th
Pl. and the majority of those they spoke with expressed interest in annexing to
Renton. She indicated that the data that previous speaker Bill Hulten collected
included View Point and Maple Ridge Estates.
June 11,2007 Renton City Council Minutes Page 200
Bill Hulten, 13836 SE 158th St., Renton, 98058, clarified that the data he
presented only reflects the homeowners in Maple Ridge Estates.
Councilmember Clawson also noted the difficulty of the decision,pointing out
the possibility that the annexation may fail if not for the addition of Maple
Ridge Estates.
In response to Councilmember Palmer's inquiry as to who has been contacted in
the subject annexation and what their positions are, Mr. Pietsch replied that he
did not know who the proponents have talked to. He voiced his understanding
that proponent Lichty was waiting for Council authorization of the 60%petition
prior to going out into the community. Regarding the Wonderland Estates
Mobile Home Park property,Mr. Pietsch stated that in October 2006,King
County received a complete development application that vests the property
owner to the existing King County development regulations.
MOVED BY LAW, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL EXPAND THE
ANNEXATION BOUNDARY TO INCLUDE MAPLE RIDGE ESTATES,
WHICH INCLUDES VIEW POINT AT MAPLE RIDGE ESTATES.*
Councilmember Corman agreed with Councilmember Clawson saying that
including Maple Ridge Estates may make it more likely that the annexation
would be successful. Council President Nelson expressed concern regarding the
extra burden on the proponents if the annexation boundary was expanded. Mr.
Corman commented that Maple Ridge Estates residents should be responsible
for collecting the signature for the Maple Ridge Estates area.
MOVED BY CLAWSON, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL SUSPEND
THE RULES TO ALLOW MR. LICHTY TO MAKE HIS COMMENTS.
CARRIED.
Loran Lichty, 15711 152nd Ave. SE, Renton, 98058, emphasized that New Life
Church will support whichever decision Council makes. He clarified that in the
Maple Ridge Estate's data collection, 101 of the 157 homes were reached; thus
the 83 percent represents 101 households when in reality the 60% annexation
petition will be based on 157 homes. Mr. Lichty estimated that a boundary
expansion will delay the signature collection process by approximately one
month.
Continuing, Mr. Lichty noted the difference of a homeowner expressing an
opinion for informal data collection versus actually signing an annexation
petition. He commended Maple Ridge Estates residents for their efforts and for
their level of organization. Saying that he sees both sides of the matter, Mr.
Lichty noted the lack of contact he has had with property owners in the current
annexation area; therefore, he does not have a good gauge as to their interest in
annexation.
*MOTION CARRIED.

THE INCLUSION OF MAPLE RIDGE ESTATES;AUTHORIZE

SUBJECT: Administrative Report
In addition to our day-to-day activities, the following items are worthy of note for this week:
COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT
• The City of Renton and King County is offering a limited supply of free vouchers to qualified
resident seniors worth $40 in fresh fruits and vegetables from King County farmers markets. The
vouchers will be available June 11-15 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Renton Senior Activity

(two people). Applicants must provide identification showing date of birth and residence zip code.
Transportation to the Senior Activity Center(211 Burnett Avenue North) is available by two-day
advance registration within Renton School District boundaries for just $1.00 by calling 425-430-
6633.
• City of Renton senior and/or disabled citizens may qualify for the City utility tax rebate and
discount program. Utility tax rebates are available to any qualified resident who paid utility taxes
during the year. The rebate is for $110, or prorated for residence of less than one year.
Applications are due June 30th and are available at rentonwa.gov. Call 425-430-6852 for further
information.
• Beginning June 9th, weekend overflow parking for users of the boat launch at Gene Coulon
Memorial Beach Park is available along Houser Way North and at the south end of Boeing parking
lot #11. The City appreciates the assistance of The Boeing Company in meeting the need for extra
parking. Recreation Division personnel at Coulon have maps available to these sites, and a shuttle
service is available between 12 noon and 8:00 p.m., weekends only through September 2nd. For
more information, contact the Renton Community Center at 425-430-6700.
• Summertime fun begins at the Henry Moses Aquatic Center on Saturday, June 16th. The aquatic
center's fourth season will continue through Labor Day. Call 425-430-6700 for more information
or visit the City's website at rentonwa.gov.
• Summer hours will begin at the Renton Community Center on Monday, June 18th, and continue
through Labor Day. The center will be open 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and
8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays. It will be closed on Sundays for the summer.
• The City will take action on June 18th to address dangerous and invasive water weeds in the
swimming area and boat harbor at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park.
An aquatic herbicide will be applied below the surface of the water to treat and remove Milfoil, a
non-native weed that chokes out native plants and can entangle people, boat propellers, and fishing

lines. Milfoil spreads rapidly to new areas and is very difficult to remove without the use of an
herbicide. The Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park swim area and Kennydale Beach Park will be
closed June 18th in order to conduct the application of the herbicide. The product to be used is
very safe and is authorized by the Washington State Department of Ecology. Contact Jerry
Rerecich, City of Renton Recreation Manager, at 425-430-6615 for further details.
• The swimming areas at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park will be
open with lifeguards June 23rd through Labor Day.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, NEIGHBORHOODS & STRATEGIC
PLANNING DEPARTMENT
• The Downtown Wayfinding project, which will improve signage into and around downtown
Renton, as well as between downtown and The Landing, kicked off last week. The consultant team
at Sea Reach met with City leaders and held two public meetings to solicit input before the system
is designed. Thirty people, representing businesses, property owners, residents, and community
volunteers, provided valuable input at two public meetings. Sea Reach will submit a draft design
by late July. EDNSP will host additional meetings with City staff and the public to review and
provide feedback at that time.
PLANNING/BUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
• The RTID Planning Committee, comprised of the 21 County Councilmembers from King (9),
Pierce (7), and Snohomish (5) Counties, voted 19-2 to move the RTID package along to individual
county councils to be placed on the ballot. The project list is essentially unchanged from what has
previously been presented.
• The City has begun construction on the SW 34th Street Culvert Replacement Project, which will
reduce flooding in the Renton Valley by replacing four deteriorating, undersized culverts.
Beginning June 16th, SW 34th Street (on the east and west side of the creek) will be temporarily
closed to through traffic in order to facilitate removal of the existing culverts and installation of the
new box culvert. The temporary road closure will shorten construction time by approximately
three weeks, resulting in fewer impacts to neighboring businesses and traffic, as well as reducing
construction costs. Local access to businesses on both sides of SW 34th Street will be maintained
at all times. The closure will remain in effect 24 hours a day from June 16th to September 30th.
Questions or concerns may be directed to Allen Quynn, Project Manager, at 425-430-7247.

SUMMARY OF ACTION: The City of Renton and King County Library System have jointly
discussed the disposition of libraries in the event of annexation. Both governments have a goal of
allowing residents in annexed areas to retain their past, current and future investment in library services.
The City wishes to have access to resources to provide appropriate library services to citizens who
become part of Renton, and the citizens of the King County Library System should not be expected to
provide a subsidy to those who are no longer part of the district after annexation.
Using these principles, an interlocal agreement has been reached governing the transfer of assets in the
event of annexations. The intention of the agreement is that if West Hill or Fairwood/Benson annexes
before 2015, there would be a transfer of assets from the Library System to the City of Renton that would
represent the current investment in libraries that residents in annexed areas have made to date, plus the
future investment in libraries that the residents in annexed areas have made to date. In addition, KCLS
will sell to the City of Renton the library buildings and property located in the annexed area at fair
market value, based on appraisal. The amount of payment is based on the pro rata share of the total
principal amount of bonded indebtedness that was approved by voters in 2004, plus the pro rata share of
the net book value of the total capital assets of KCLS. As calculated today, the net payment (bond
proceeds plus capital assets less property sale) to Renton if both areas annexed would total $3.2 million.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor to sign and execute an interlocal agreement with
the King County Library System regarding transfer of assets in the event of certain annexations.

soar AGREEMENT
REGARDING DISPOSITION OF LIBRARY CAPITAL ASSETS
IN THE EVENT OF CERTAIN ANNEXATIONS
This AGREEMENT REGARDING THE DISPOSITION OF LIBRARY CAPITAL
ASSETS IN THE EVENT OF CERTAIN ANNEXATIONS (this "Agreement"), dated as of
, 2007, is made by and between the KING COUNTY RURAL LIBRARY DISTRICT,
doing business as the King County Library System ("KCLS"), a Washington rural county library
district, and the CITY OF RENTON (the "City"), a Washington code city.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, KCLS provides library services to the citizens of unincorporated King
County, Washington (the "County"), and those cities and towns within King County that have
chosen to annex into KCLS; and
WHEREAS, the City, located within the County, has not annexed into KCLS, but
provides library services to its citizens; and
WHEREAS, the City has identified the unincorporated Fairwood Potential Annexation
Area and the West Hill Potential Annexation Area, each as identified in Exhibit A hereto, as
`or areas all or portions of which might be annexed into the City, subject to the approval of the
registered voters in those areas, respectively, as provided by law; and
WHEREAS, any such successful annexation by the City would have the effect of
removing the annexed area from the jurisdiction of KCLS, and increasing the area and
population served by the City's libraries; and
WHEREAS, KCLS and the City now desire to memorialize their agreements regarding
the transfer of library capital assets in the event of any such annexation in order to maintain the
past, present and future library capital investments by the citizens of the affected areas in a
manner that will ensure their continued access to appropriate library services;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual agreements set forth herein, KCLS
and the City hereby agree as follows:
1. Transfer of Assets. In the event of any successful annexation of any portion of
the Fairwood or West Hill Potential Annexation Areas by the City, the following shall occur:
(a) KCLS shall pay to the City an amount equal to the sum of:
(i) The annexed area's pro rata share (equal to the assessed value of the
property located within the annexed area divided by the total assessed value of all
r property located within KCLS, each determined as of the effective date of such
1
annexation) of$172,000,000 (which is the total principal amount of KCLS unlimited tax
general obligation bonds that were approved by the voters within KCLS in 2004 [the
"2004 Bonds"]). KCLS and the City intend and agree that this amount represents the
future investment in libraries that the citizens in the annexed areas have agreed to make
to date.
and
(ii) The annexed area's pro rata share (equal to the assessed value of the
property located within the annexed area divided by the total assessed value of all
property located within KCLS, each determined as of the effective date of such
annexation) of the net book value of the total capital assets of KCLS, adjusted to
eliminate any increases in such net book value resulting from capital improvements
already financed by the 2004 Bonds (such amounts to be based on the most recent
audited financial statements of KCLS available on the effective date of such annexation).
KCLS and the City intend and agree that this amount represents the current investment in
libraries that the citizens in the annexed areas have made to date.
(b) KCLS shall sell all KCLS library buildings located within the annexed area and
the real property on which they are located to the City, and the City shall purchase such library
buildings and real property from KCLS, at a purchase price equal to the fair market value
thereof, as determined by a written appraisal made by an appraiser who is a Member of the
Appraisal Institute ("MAI")jointly selected by KCLS and the City.
kftiO

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2(b) of this Agreement, the amount due from

(ii) In four, equal, semiannual installments, together with interest thereon,
at the net monthly rate paid by the King County Investment Pool, on the unpaid balance
from the date of the initial installment (computed on the basis of a 360-day year
comprised of twelve 30-day months), on June 1 and December 1 of each year,
commencing with the June 1 or December 1, whichever comes first, that is at least six
months following the effective date of such annexation, as applicable.
(b) The transfer of library buildings and real property from KCLS to the City, and the
payment of the purchase price therefor by the City, shall occur on a date mutually agreeable to
the parties but no later than the June 1 or December 1, whichever comes first, that is at least six
months following the effective date of such annexation. Such purchase price shall be credited
against the amount to be paid by KCLS to the City pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof. If such
purchase price is less than the amount to be paid by KCLS to the City, then KCLS shall only be *100
2

performance of any provision of this Agreement or the interpretation thereof, and KCLS and the
City are unable to resolve their differences through informal discussions, the parties will

G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS:
1. Project Description/Background
The applicant, Rhon White, is proposing to subdivide a 0.34-acre (14,656 square foot) parcel zoned Residential
—8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) into two lots. The property is located east of Meadow Avenue N and south of
N 40th Street. An existing single family residence is proposed to be removed. The required front yard setback
is 15 feet for the primary structure and 20 feet for an attached garage. The required rear yard setback is 20
feet.
Proposed lot sizes are: Lot 1 at 6,209 sq. ft. and Lot 2 at 7,108 sq. ft. The proposal for two new lots would
arrive at a density of 5.9 dwelling units per net acre (du/ac). The allowed density range in the R-8 zone is a
minimum of 4.0 to a maximum of 8.0 dwelling units per acre and the proposed density is within the permitted
density range.
Access to the proposed lots would be provided via residential driveways off of Meadow Avenue N. The
topography of the subject is flat. Of the currently existing 14 trees onsite 12 are proposed to remain.
2. Environmental Review
‘vilor Except when located on lands covered by water or sensitive areas, short plats are exempt from SEPA
Environmental Review pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6)(a).
3. Compliance with ERC Conditions
N/A
4. Staff Review Comments
Representatives from various city departments have reviewed the application materials to identify and address
issues raised by the proposed development. These comments are contained in the official file, and the essence
of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate sections of this report and the Departmental
Recommendation at the end of the report.
5. Consistency Short Plat Criteria
Approval of a plat is based upon several factors. The following short plat criteria have been established to
assist decision-makers in the review of the plat:
a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Designation
The site is designated Residential Single Family (RSF) on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Map. Lands in the RSF designation are intended to be used for quality residential detached
development organized into neighborhoods at urban densities. It is intended that larger
subdivision, infill development, and rehabilitation of existing housing be carefully designed to
enhance and improve the quality of single-family living environments. The proposal is consistent
with the following Comprehensive Plan Land Use and Community Design Element policies:
Policy LU-147. Net development densities should fall within a range of 4.0 to 8.0 dwelling units
per acre in Residential Single Family neighborhoods.
The proposed project for two lots would arrive at a net density of 5.9 dwelling units per net acre,
which is within the density range permitted.
Policy LU-148. A minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet should be allowed on in-fill parcels of less
than one acre (43,560 sq. ft.) in single-family designations. Allow a reduction on lot size to 4,500
AdminRPT WhiteMeadowShortPlat.doc
City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action
REPORT AND DECISION DATED January 18,2007;PROJECT LUA-06-159,SHPL-A Page 4
square feet on parcels greater than one acre to create an incentive for aggregation of land. iw
minimum lot size is not intended to set the standard for density in the designation, but to provide-
flexibility
rovi ede
flexibility in subdivision/plat design and facilitate development within the allowed density range.
All of the proposed lots equal or exceed the minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet.
Policy LU-152. Single-family lot size, lot width, setbacks, and impervious surface should be
sufficient to allow private open space, landscaping to provide buffers/privacy without extensive
fencing, and sufficient area for maintenance activities.
The proposed new lots would meet the required lot size, width, and setbacks to create sufficient
front, rear, and side yard areas.
Policy LU-154. Interpret development standards to support new plats and infill project designs
incorporating street locations, lot configurations, and building envelopes that address privacy and
quality of life for existing residents.
The proposed lots are rectangular in shape; each lot would be oriented such that all of the lots
would have access to a public right-of-way. Approval of this application would not decrease the
quality of life for residents in the immediate vicinity.
Policy CD-12. Infill development, defined as new short plats of nine or fewer lots, should be
encouraged in order to add variety, updated housing stock, and new vitality to neighborhoods.
The proposed short plat would subdivide an existing parcel into two lots. New residences would be
constructed on both of the proposed lots, updating the housing stock in the existing neighborhood.
b) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation
The subject site is designated Residential — 8 Dwelling Units per Acre (R-8) on the City of Renton
Zoning Map. The proposed development would allow for the future construction of two new singly
family dwelling units. An existing residence is proposed to be removed.
The allowed density range in the R-8 zone is a minimum of 4.0 to a maximum of 8.0 dwelling units
per acre. Net density is calculated after the deduction of sensitive areas, areas intended for public
right-of-way, and private access easements. There are no areas required to be deducted for the
purposes of calculating density, the proposal for two lots arrives at a net density of 5.9 dwelling
units per acre, which is within the permitted density range for the R-8 zone.
The allowed building lot coverage in the R-8 zone is 35 percent or 2,500 square feet whichever is
greater for lots over 5,000 square feet in size. The lot coverage for the new lots would be verified
at the time of building permit review.
The required setbacks in the R-8 zone are as follows: front yard is 15 feet for the primary structure
and 20 feet for an attached garage, side yard is 5 feet, side yard along a street is 15 feet for the
primary structure and 20 feet for an attached garage and the rear yard is 20 feet. Based on the
proposed subdivision, the proposed lots would have their front yards facing to the west towards
Meadow Avenue N. The setbacks for the new lots would be verified at the time of building permit
review, however each lot appears to contain adequate area for the construction of single family
residences when the setbacks are considered.
The parking regulations required that detached or semi-attached dwellings provide at minimum of
2 off-street parking spaces. As proposed, each lot would have adequate area to provide two off-
street parking spaces. Compliance with the parking requirements will be verified at the time of
building permit review.
The R-8 zone permits accessory structures only when associated with a primary structure located
on the same parcel.
c) Community Assets
The entire site is vegetated primarily with grass, ornamental landscaping, and a total of 14 treeswrili
The regulations regarding tree protection and retention require that trees on lots being developed
be maintained to the maximum extent feasible. They permit the City to require the replacement of
trees that would implement the intent of the regulations. The Development Services Director has
made a determination that to comply with these requirements, 25 percent of all protected trees
AdminRPT WhiteMeadowShortPlat.doc
City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action
REPORT AND DECISION DATED January 18,2007;PROJECT LUA-06-159,SHPL-A Page 5
shall be retained or replaced. Of the 14 existing trees, 12 are proposed to be retained, which
results in a retention rate of 86 percent and complies with the tree retention requirements.
The City's landscaping regulations require the installation of landscaping within the public right-of-
way. The minimum amount of landscaping required for sites abutting a non-arterial public street is
5 feet provided that if there is additional undeveloped right-of-way in excess of 5 feet, this shall
also be landscaped. A determination has been made that if no additional area is available within
the public right-of-way due to required improvements, the 5-foot landscaped strip may be located
within private property abutting the public right-of-way. The landscaping proposed shall either
consist of drought resistant vegetation or shall be irrigated appropriately. In addition, the applicant
will be required to plant two ornamental trees, a minimum caliper of 1-1/2 inches (deciduous)or 6—
8 feet in height (conifer), within the 15-foot front yard setback area for the proposed lots. Existing
landscaping may be used to augment the required landscaping.
A conceptual landscape plan was submitted with the application. The proposal includes a 5-foot
landscape strip along the project's Meadow Avenue N street frontage. The landscape strip is
proposed to be vegetated with Nandina domestica 'Fire Power', Cotoneaster dam meri, Viburnum
plicatum tom. `Sholshoni', and Pinus mugo pumilio. In addition, two Fraxinus pennsylvanica
'Johnson' would be planted within the front yard area of Lot 1 and two Amelanchier a. x gran
`Autumn Brilliance' would be installed within the front yard area of Lot 2. The proposed landscape
plan appears to comply with the City's landscape requirements.
A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted with the building permit applications. All landscaping
shall be installed prior to the issuance of occupancy for the buildings.
d) Compliance with Subdivision Regulations
Streets: No new public streets would be created as part of the proposed short plat.
Meadow Avenue N is classified as a Residential Access Street on the City's Arterial Street Map.
Now There are no existing frontage improvements along the parcel's Meadow Avenue N street frontage.
Meadow Avenue N has a right-of-way width of 40 feet, which is less than the current 50-foot right-
of-way width required for Residential Access Streets. Prior to recording the short plat dedication of
a minimum of 5 feet along the Meadow Avenue N frontage will be required. Street improvements
including, but not limited to paving, sidewalks, curb and gutter, storm drain, landscaping and street
signs will be required along Meadow Avenue N.
The proposed short plat is anticipated to generate additional traffic on the City's street system. In
order to mitigate transportation impacts, staff recommends a condition of approval be placed on
the project requiring a Transportation Mitigation Fee based on $75.00 per net new average daily
trip attributed to the project. One new lot (credit given for the existing residence) is expected to
generate approximately 9.57 new average weekday trips. The fee for the proposed short plat is
estimated at $717.75 ($75.00 x 9.57 trips x 1 lot = $717.75) and is payable prior to the recording of
the short plat.
Blocks: No new blocks will be created as part of the proposed short plat.
Lots: The size, shape, orientation, and arrangement of the proposed lots comply with the
requirements of the Subdivision Regulations and the development standards of the R-8 zone.
Each lot is rectangular in shape with the front yard areas oriented to the west towards Meadow
Avenue N. Each of the proposed lots would have direct to a public street (Meadow Avenue N).
The minimum lot size in the R-8 zone is 5,000 square feet. Lot area is calculated after the
deduction of private access easements and pipestems from the gross lot area. After the deduction
of the 1,800 square foot pipestem for Lot 2, the proposed lot sizes are 6,209 square feet for Lot 1,
and 7,108 square feet for Lot 2. The proposed lot sizes meet the minimum lot size requirements.
The minimum lot width required in the R-8 zone is 50 feet for interior lots. Proposed Lot 1 has a lot
width of 68.70 feet and Lot 2 has a lot width of 90.73 feet. The minimum lot depth required in the
R-8 zone is 65 feet. Proposed Lot 1 has a lot depth of 90 feet and Lot 2 has a lot depth of 73 feet.
The dimensions of the proposed lots meet the minimum width and depth requirements and are
compatible with other existing lots in this area under the same R-8 zoning classification. In
addition, the lots appear to contain adequate building areas for the construction of suitable single-
AdminRPT WhiteMeadowShortPlat.doc
City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action
REPORT AND DECISION DATED January 18,2007;PROJECT LUA-06-159,SHPL-A Page 6
family residences when taking setbacks and lot coverage requirements into consideration. The
is
requirements will be reviewed at the time of building permit application.
e) Reasonableness of Proposed Boundaries
Access: Each lot would have access to a public right-of-way(Meadow Avenue N)via single family
residential driveways.
Topography:The topography of the subject site is flat.
Relationship to Existing Uses: The properties surrounding the subject site are single-family
residences and are designated Residential — 8 Dwelling Units Per Acre (R-8) on the City's zoning
map. The proposal is similar to existing development patterns in the area and is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code, which encourage residential infill development.
f) Availability and Impact on Public Services(Timeliness)
Police and Fire: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicate that sufficient resources exist to furnish
services to the proposed development, subject to the condition that the applicant provide Code
required improvements and fees. A Fire Mitigation Fee, based on $488.00 per new single-family lot
with credit given for the existing single-family residence, is recommended in order to mitigate the
proposal's potential impacts to City emergency services. The fee is estimated at $488.00 ($488.00
x 1 new lots =$488.00)and is payable prior to the recording of the short plat.
Schools: According to the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the City of Renton Land Use
Element (January 16, 1992), the City of Renton has a student generation factor of 0.44 students
per single-family residential dwelling. Based on the student generation factor, the proposed short
plat would result in 0.44 additional students (0.44 X 1 lot = 0.44) to the local schools. It is
anticipated that the Renton School District can accommodate any additional students generated by
this proposal.
Storm Water: A Drainage Narrative prepared by Hanson Consulting, dated January 8, 2006 h81410
been submitted with the project application. According to the report the existing runoff infiltrates
into the soils on-site. The proposed method of surface water runoff control for construction of the
new lots would be infiltration. Staff from the City's Plan Review Section reviewed the submitted
report and note that this project is exempt from detention and water quality per the 1990 KCSWM.
Roof drains shall be tightlined to the storm system whenever feasible. Infiltration is allowed if soils
are acceptable.
The Surface Water System Development Charges are based on a rate of$759.00 per new single-
family lot. Payment of this fee will be required prior to issuance of utility construction permit. Fees
may be subject to change January 2007.
A temporary erosion control plan will be required and shall be installed and maintained to the
satisfaction of the representative of the Development Services Division for the duration of the
project. The first order of business shall be installation of a silt fence along the perimeter of the
site that is to be disturbed. The silt fence shall be in place before clearing and grading is initiated.
This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as
building construction. Due to the potential for erosion to occur during project construction, staff
recommends as a condition of approval that the project be required to comply with the Department
of Ecology's Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements as outlined in Volume II of the current
edition of the Stormwater Management Manual.
Utilities:There is an existing 12-inch water main in Meadow Avenue N that can deliver a flow rate
of 2,800 gallons per minute (gpm). The static water pressure is about 85 psi at street elevation
(see City water drawing no. W-0456). The proposed project is located outside the Aquifer
Protection Area. Pressure zone is 320.
The required fire flow for single-family residences is 1,000 gpm, and a fire hydrant is required to r
located within 300 feet of all single-family residences. If the building square footage (includirpgS
garage area) exceeds 3,600 square feet in area, the minimum fire flow increases to a minimum of
1,500 gpm and requires 2 hydrants within 300 feet of the structure. Existing and new hydrants will
be required to be retrofitted with Storz"quick disconnect"fittings if not existing.

SUBJECT: WSIPC Interlocal Agreement/Verizon
ISSUE
Should the City of Renton enter into an Interlocal Agreement with Washington Schools
Information Processing Cooperative (WSIPC)?
RECOMMENDATION
Nior
Staff recommends approval of the Interlocal Agreement.
BACKGROUND
The proposed agreement would allow Information Services to purchase software and
services from Verizon using terms from the WSIPC Contract. The City of Renton's
current voicemail system is at end-of-life. The current system has begun having
reliability issues. System failure may mean loss of City voice mail and menu trees.
Verizon, the City's PBX support vendor, will supply Nortel's call pilot replacement voice
mail package.
The City of Renton does not have an Interlocal Agreement with WSIPC. The attached
agreement allows the City of Renton, including its FIS's, Information Services Division
to create purchasing efficiencies with WSIPC by extending the contracted price of goods
and services between organizations. The terms of the WSIPC contract are considered
favorable to the City of Renton.

Statement of Work
FFY 2007 Emergency Management Performance Grant Program ' '
INTRODUCTION:
The Washington State Military Department Emergency Management Division (EMD) receives grant monies
each year from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through the Emergency Management
Performance Grant (EMPG). A portion of this grant has been identified by the state to be passed through to
local jurisdictions and tribes that have emergency management programs to supplement their local/tribal
operating budget. Each jurisdiction or tribe that applies and meets the qualifications specified in WAC 118-09
is awarded a grant based on the size of their agency's emergency management operating budget. Funds are
used by local jurisdictions and tribes to enhance their emergency management capability.
The Statement of Work outlines the activities and deliverables the Contractor has identified to be performed for
FFY07 EMPG. The Timeline outlines the schedule that the Contractor agrees to in order to fulfill the grant
deliverables during the contract performance period. The Budget Sheet outlines the Contractor's emergency
management operating budget (excluding federal funds) that is dedicated to emergency management activities.
In addition, the Budget Sheet is used to announce the FFY07 EMPG award and serves as documentation for the
local match to the federal funds.
GENERAL PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS:
1. Prepare and submit a Bi-Annual Strategy Implementation Report (BSIR), via the web-based grant
reporting tool (https://www.reportinq.odp.dhs.gov). Failure to meet all of the reporting deadlines
outlined in the Milestone and Timeline Schedule will prohibit the Contractor from being reimbursed
while reports are outstanding.
2. Report progress on deliverables and advise the Military Department, in writing, of necessary
adjustments to the content of the contract. Performance reports will be submitted using the on-lin,iy
electronic Grant Management System (e-GMS) located at https://fortress.wa.gov/mil/gms/gms/.
3. Adhere to all financial and procurement guidance, including competitive processes and other
procurement requirements as set forth in the current edition of the Office of Grant Operations Financial
Management Guide found at www.dhs.qov/xlibrary/assets/Grants FinancialManaqementGuide.pdf.
Local and state procurement and contracting regulations take precedent over these requirements when
local and state regulations are more stringent.
• Adhere to G&T requirements that all sole source contracts over $100,000 be reviewed and
approved by the Department prior to execution of a contract. This requirement must be passed on
to all of the Contractor's sub-contractors, at which point the Contractor will be responsible for
reviewing and approving their sub-contractors' sole source justifications.
• Adhere to G&T requirements that all contracts with individual consultants, that are not competitively
bid, and where the consultant will be charging an excess of $450 per day (excluding travel and
subsistence) must be approved by the Department before the contract is executed. This
requirement must be passed on to all of the Contractor's sub-contractors, at which point the
Contractor will be responsible for reviewing and approving their sub-contractors' contract.

administration in accordance with the FFY07 Emergency Management Performance Grant Program
Guidance, which can be found at http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/odp/docs/fy2007empq.pdf, as well as all

reimbursement for purchased equipment will occur until the appropriate approvals have been
obtained.
c. Determine whether or not it is in the best interest of the Contractor to make purchases using its
own procurement process or ask the Department to make purchases on its behalf.
d. Make a request to the Department in writing that authorizes the Department to de-obligate
funding from the Contractor's contract and use the state's procurement process and contracts to
purchase equipment on behalf of the Contractor. This will necessitate an amendment to the
contract reducing the Contractor's award by an amount sufficient for the Department to make
the purchase(s). The Department will pay the vendor directly and all items will be drop shipped
to a location designated by the Contractor.
7. Exercises that are implemented with grant funds must meet the requirements of the FFY07 Emergency
Management Performance Grant. Upon completion of the exercise, an After Action Report and an
Improvement Plan must be prepared and submitted to the Department within 60 days of completion of

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 proposed land use action is a
subdivision of approximately 2.17 acres of land that would be divided into lots suitable for residential single-
family development. The property is located on the east side of Hoquiam Avenue NE, due east of Hazen High
School. It is in a recently annexed area of the City of Renton. The property consists of two tax parcels that have
existing homes and outbuildings, all of these structures would be removed.
The proposal is to subdivide the property into 15 lots and one tract for surface water management. The project
is associated with an earlier 16-lot subdivision known as Brookefield II. This project abuts the property to the
south. The entryway was completed with half street improvements. The project today would complete NE 11`h
Court with the remaining half street improvements including the completion of the cul-de-sac.
The area has a comprehensive plan land use designation of Residential Single-Family within the Residential 8
(R-8) zone. The net density is 7.93 dwelling units per net acre which is within the range of allowable density in
the R-8 zone. Lots would range in size from 4,573 sf to 6,125 sf, which is within the range of allowable lot
size.
Access to the site would be via an existing cul-de-sac public street, NE 11`h Court. Two private streets would
serve lots located on the north portion of the subdivision. Site preparation for development would include the
removal of vegetation and trees for roadways, utilities and building pads.
A public pedestrian connection from the street ends of the private streets to the north property boundary with the
potential of continuing pedestrian access to the north should that property be developed.
The ERC issued a Determination of Non-Significance—Mitigated, which included six mitigation measures. No
appeals were filed.
Fire,Traffic and Park Mitigation fees were imposed on this project.
This plat meets the objectives of the community design element with the use of a grid pattern that is consistent
with the City of Renton's street patterns, it provides pedestrian connection to the north, and most lots will front
on public streets. Street trees would be planted along residential streets and a detailed landscape plan would be
submitted at the time of building permit review. Maintenance of common areas would be the responsibility of a
Homeowners' Association. This plat would have a 42-foot right-of-way, which is narrower than a standard
right-of-way, there would be sidewalks along the public street and all utility lines would be placed underground.

The project would provide 15 new homes and would be in the high-end range for the Residential-8 zone. The
lots would all be larger than 4,500 square feet. All setbacks would meet the requirements for the development
standards for the zone. There is a 15-foot side setbacks required from private access easements.
The half-street improvements would be required on NE 11`h Court and to add curb, gutter, sidewalk and street
lighting to the east side of Hoquiam Ave NE.
The project is located within the Renton School District and they have indicated that they can handle the
proposed 7 additional students.
Landscaping of the stormwater tract is also required.
Darrell Offe, Offe Engineers PLLC, 13932 SE 159th Place, Renton stated that he is the project engineer. They
have been working for three years to get the project annexed into the City. A copy of the final plat of
Brookefield II, sheets 2, 3, and 4, which shows the extension of NE 11th as it relates to the development today.
A portion of the existing fence will be removed at the time that the remaining portion of the half street is
improved. NE 11th Court is actually larger than a half street improvement, there is 35-feet of dedicated right-of-
way to the City of Renton that abuts their property line. This development will dedicate an additional seven feet
of right-of-way and make improvements of two additional feet of asphalt plus vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk.
They will not be dedicating along Hoquiam, that is a 60-foot right-of-way and the City didn't ask for any
additional right-of-way.
Nue
The four homes that are to be built in the back do have longer driveways and the lots are larger than normal
they have extra depth to accommodate residents making turns so they don't have to back out the long driveways.
The developer has been doing this for over ten years and these types of lots appear to be desired by the public.
The property to the north currently has a right-of-way and a power line easement down NE 12th, the access will
come off the extension of 12"'with no access onto Hoquiam due to the activity with the high school.
They are at the extent for a gravity sewer to the south, the property to the north and up to Sunset will require a
pump station that will generate a lot of cost and a lot of development. The area was zoned R-1, it is unlikely
that the pump station will be built unless the City contributes to the cost.
Nancy Villaluz, 5311 NE 11"'Court, Renton 98059 stated that she is the president of the Homeowners'
Association for Brookefield II located at the south end of NE 11th Court.
They have a boundary issue, the applicant did acquire an easement for the water along the southeast corner of
the proposed plat. There is a strip of land that appears to be a straight line and it should not be, the pavement at
the end of the tract is not the end of the property line. The property they acquired did not extend into the "T"of
the private road. The Homeowners' Association has planted trees along the boundary that they do not want
disturbed when the drainage pond is installed.
They have consulted with an attorney regarding the sale of the water easements, it appears that for$100 the
Homeowners' Association sold the water rights,but this seems to not have benefited the Association, and both
,� the grantor and grantee are the same signature. It appears that the builder sold it from himself to himself.

Lot 16 of Brookefield II was already under contract in escrow when the 10-feet along the west end of the
property with an additional 10-feet along the north end was sold off for a mere $100 without any notification or
any change to their sale contract. There were not notified of this transaction.
Regarding the significance of trees, the City stated that there were no significant trees, they have looked at the
trees that were mapped on the plat, some of the larger trees should be spared. The significant open area,Tract C
for Brookefield II sustained significant damage in the recent wind storm, 60% of the trees have been blown
down.
The homeowners from their association has discussed the traffic,they have been welcoming the development
across the street with the removal of the fence and completion of the road and addition of houses. They do
question the fact that the driveways would be offset,there would be more traffic than normal with the excess
driveways. Because of the school and the neighborhood there are a significant number of children,their safety
is of great concern. They would request a full right-of-way rather than the smaller sized roadway as the
applicant has requested.
Kayren Kittrick, Development Services stated that the 42-foot street is a standard throughout the City for
residential areas, it allows for two lanes of traffic,parking on both sides with 20-feet of clear roadway.
She asked that an additional condition be added, Lots 1 and 12 should have no access to Hoquiam. The
preference would be shared driveways for Lots 2 &3 and Lots 6& 7.
Tract A on Brookefield II is an access tract, it was created for access to all of the lots in the back, it was also 4400
created to give access to Tract B,the storm drainage and for maintenance.
Ms. Higgins stated that the access to the back lots is via easements from Lots 2 & 3 and Lots 6& 7, ten feet
from each side.
Mr. Offe addressed the issue of the easement with regard to the stormwater outfall. On Exhibit 5, which shows
Lots 14, 15, and 16,Tract A(the"T" shaped tract) in Brookefield II. On Lot 16 and Tract C there is a recorded
10-foot water easement along the west side of Lot 16 and a 15-foot water easement along the north side of Lot
16 and Tract C to Water District 90 for a future extension. The developer acquired from Sound Built Homes,
while Lot 16 was being built,a 10' x 16' easement in the corner,along and concurrent with the water district
easements.
The detention vault will be covered, it will be narrow and long the trees planted by the HOA, if they are on their
property, they will not touch them. They will not be working in the southeast corner at all.
Ms. Higgins stated that the applicant submitted a tree inventory. It shows one existing tree that is to be retained
on the west side of the property, a 22"Cedar. Since the big windstorm, a lot of trees are no long standing and
tree inventories are incorrect. Most of the trees are located on the eastern side of the property. The Renton Tree
Retention Determination made by the Director,identifying trees that should be protected and those that are not
considered worthy of protection. In that determination, Cottonwood, Alders, Birch, Aspen,etc are not
considered worthy of protection. They are brittle and do fall during heavy windstorms.
The slopes on the property show the existing topography of the site with a 9% slope across Lots 9, 10 and the
north part of Lot 11. Where the cul-de-sac needs to be completed the existing slope is about 21%, in order to get *id
an acceptable grade there will have to be grading. The proposed grading plan shows how the 21% slope will be
accommodated back on the Tracts. Where there is this type of grading, all the trees will have to be removed.

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 10:21 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Cambridge Investments, LLC, filed a request for a Preliminary Plat.
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 1154 and 1160 Hoquiam Avenue NE. The subject site is located on the
east side of Hoquiam just north of NE 11th Court.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single-family uses,but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family- 8 dwelling units/acre).
8. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 5223 enacted in October 2006.
9. The subject site is approximately 2.17 acres or 94,706 square feet. The site is approximately 630 feet
deep(east to west)and approximately 150 feet wide along Hoquiam. Two existing homes on the
subject site will be removed if the plat is approved.
10. Honey Creek is located east of the subject site and prevents access or through access to the east.
Brookefield II, a previously approved plat, is located along the south and east edge of this property and
provides the south portion of NE 11th Court that will provide access. Due to Honey Creek, 11th Court
will be a cul-de-sac roadway.
11. There are 33 alder trees, 20 cottonwoods and one fir and one hemlock. Only the two later trees are
protected trees according to staff. There are some larger other trees on the subject site as reported by
neighbors but none of the trees are significant species. The applicant will be leaving some trees if
appropriate and will not be directly affecting trees on neighboring properties. Tree removal on the
subject site might affect trees on adjacent sites by removing the "wind break affect."
12. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into 15 lots. One tract for storm water will be created
along the east edge of the plat.
13. Eleven lots will be located along the north side of NE 11th Court. Four lots will be created along the
north property line that gain their access via two private roads. The private roads will be located
Brookefield North Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-05-131, PP, ECF
May 1, 2007
Page 6
between Proposed Lots 2 and 3 and 6 and 7 and provide access to Proposed Lots 12 and 13 and 14 and
15, respectively. The lots along l Ith Court will be oriented north to south while the interior lots will be
oriented east to west. Staff has recommended that Proposed Lots 12 and 13 have their front yards
facing each other and a similar arrangement for Proposed Lots 14 and 15.
14. As noted above, NE 11th Court will end in a cul-de-sac providing access to the subject site as well as
the adjoining property to the south and east. Staff has recommended that pedestrian access be provided
to the north via the two private streets. Staff has also recommended that there be no direct access to
Hoquiam from any proposed lot.
15. The density for the plat would be 7.3 dwelling units per acre after subtracting roadways.
16. Regulations require street trees and trees in the front yards of homes.
17. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately 6 or 7 school age children. These students would be spread across the grades and would
be assigned on a space available basis.
18. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit or approximately 150 trips for the
proposed plat. Approximately ten percent of the trips, or approximately 15 additional peak hour trips
will be generated in the morning and evening.
19. Stormwater will be contained in a vault located on a tract at the eastern edge of the plat. The vault may ,,,moi
have an exposed wall located along its eastern edge but is proposed to be setback from the property line.
20. Sewer will be provided in NE 11th Court. Domestic water will be provided by Water District 90 and a
certificate of availability has been provided.
21. Neighbors expressed some concern about the way property was conveyed between the various
ownerships of the subject site and surrounding property. These are not issues subject to this review.
The applicant cannot trespass on adjacent property while developing the subject site.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed plat appears to serve the public use and interest. It provides rectangular lots that meet
code requirements and that have appropriate access to roads and utilities.
2. The development of the new lots will obviously affect neighboring properties both during construction
and once occupied by new residents. These impacts were anticipated when the site was zoned for
additional single-family homes. The plat meets the City's density requirements and provides infill
where utilities are available.
3. The development will increase the tax base of the City and the collection of mitigation fees will further
help offset the impacts of the new development on the City's parks,roads and emergency services. The
completion of the cul-de-sac will also help emergency access to the subject site and adjoining
properties.
4. The staff recommendations on home orientation for Proposed Lots 12 and 13 and 14 and 15 seems
appropriate given their juxtaposition to one another, their access roads and their southern neighbors.

5. Staffs recommendation for pedestrian access to the north through the private roads is appropriate under
the City's Community Design policies 15, 26 and 60. It will provide internal links for pedestrians to
mingle with neighbors or future neighbors tying the various communities to one another.
6. As noted, the applicant cannot adversely affect neighboring properties directly but the consequences of
removing trees on the subject site may not be completely avoidable. The applicant is free to work with
neighbors to preserve additional trees as appropriate.
7. In conclusion, the plat is appropriate and the City Council should approve the proposed plat.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council should approve the Preliminary Plat subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall comply with the conditions imposed by the ERC.
2. Pedestrian access shall be provided to the property located north of the proposed project from
the north ends of the two private streets.
3. A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Project Manager for
review and approval prior to final plat recording.
Now
4. A homeowners' association shall be created concurrently with the recording of the final plat in
order to establish maintenance responsibilities for all shared improvements. A draft of the
document shall be submitted to the City of Renton Development Services Division for review
and approval by the City Attorney and Property Services section prior to recording of the final
plat
5. A site layout that has the front yards of Lots 12 and 13 facing each other and accessed from
Street A and Lots 14 and 15 facing each other and accessed from Street B shall be a condition
of approval and shall be so noted on the face of the plat.
6. The face of the plat shall include language that prohibits direct access to Hoquiam from any of
the proposed lots.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Surface Water Utility is developing a Surface Water Utility Master Plan (Plan), which provides
an overview of all the Surface Water Utility programs and services. The Plan will evaluate existing
levels of service, review challenges facing the Utility due to growth, annexations, regulatory
requirements, and identify new programs and changes to existing programs to meet regulatory
requirements while maintaining acceptable levels of service. The services provided by the Surface
Water Utility engineering and maintenance programs will be reviewed, including future capital
improvement program needs, program policies, and other surface water management needs. The
Plan will pay particular attention to complying with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit that was issued to the City by the
Department of Ecology on January 17, 2007.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Surface Water Utility Master Plan upon completion of review, tentatively scheduled for first
quarter 2008.

SUBJECT: Surface Water Utility Master Plan Standing Referral
ISSUE:
Should the Council review and approve a Surface Water Utility Master Plan?
Now RECOMMENDATION:
Place the Surface Water Utility Master Plan (Plan) item on the Utilities Committee active
referral list to allow discussions and presentations on the Plan as it is being developed.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The Surface Water Utility is developing a Surface Water Utility Master Plan (Plan),
which provides an overview of all the Surface Water Utility programs and services. In
September 2006, a consultant contract with R.W. Beck Inc. was approved by Council to
provide assistance to City staff in the development of the Plan. The Plan will evaluate
existing levels of services, review challenges facing the Utility due to growth,
annexations, regulatory requirements, and identify new programs and changes to existing
programs to meet regulatory requirements while maintaining acceptable levels of service.
The Surface Water Utility uses the Plan as a guide to manage, maintain, and improve
storm and surface water systems within the City of Renton. The Plan is used to identify
short and long-term surface water planning issues related to the changing stormwater
regulatory requirements while considering City policies affected by these requirements.
The Plan will include a comprehensive review of existing and new state and federal
regulatory requirements including the Endangered Species Act and the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Municipal Stormwater Peiniit. These
Nay regulatory requirements impact Surface Water Utility programs and will require the
implementation of new programs and services, along with changes to existing services.
Council/SSWMP
June 1,2007
Page 2 of 2
The Plan will also discuss capital improvement projects needing attention for the next 20
years. Since the last Storm and Surface Water Management Plan was completed in 1995,
many of the capital improvement projects have been implemented. A new
comprehensive review of future Capital Improvement Program projects is needed to
address existing flooding problems, prevent future flooding, and protect water quality and
habitat within the City.
As part of the Plan, R.W. Beck, Inc. will address operations and maintenance, capital
improvement projects, reporting requirements, engineering program needs, mapping
program needs, surface water management policies, and state and federal regulations
which were not included in the old Plan.
Proposed meetings with the Utilities Committee shall include the following topics:
1. Introduction and overview of Surface Water Utility programs, services and
challenges.
2. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II
Municipal Stormwater Permit compliance requirements and program changes.
3. Policies.
4. Future Capital Improvement Program.
5. Financial Analysis.
6. Draft Surface Water Utility Master Plan Review.
These topics will be presented to the Utilities Committee and reviewed throughout 2007
with the submittal of the draft Surface Water Utility Master Plan to Council scheduled for
the first quarter of 2008.
Attached is a copy of the first presentation that will be made regarding existing Surface
Water Utility programs and services. The presentation will also include the regulatory
and other challenges that will require changes to programs to manage storm and surface
water runoff within the City to protect people, property, and environmental resources.
CONCLUSION:
The Surface Water Utility recommends the Surface Water Utility Master Plan item be
adopted after the Utilities Committee and Council have had sufficient time to review
elements and issues associated with the Plan, tentatively scheduled for the first quarter,
2008.

SUBJECT: Engineering Consultant Agreement with R.W. Beck, Inc.,
for the Development of a Water Use Efficiency Plan
ISSUE:
Now' Should Council approve an engineering consultant agreement with R.W. Beck, Inc., for
the development of a Water Use Efficiency Plan required by the Municipal Water Law
and Municipal Water Supply Efficiency Requirements Act of 2003?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Engineering Consultant Agreement and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk
to execute the contract with R.W. Beck, Inc., in the amount of$92,999.00, for the
development of a Water Use Efficiency Plan.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
In 2003, the state Legislature passed the Municipal Water Law to address the increasing
demand on the state's water resources from growing communities, agriculture, industry,
and the importance of conserving water for fish. The legislature directed the Department
of Health(DOH) to adopt a rule that establishes water use efficiency requirements for all
municipal water suppliers and a schedule for the implementation of water use efficiency
measures.
In January 2007, DOH adopted the Water Use Efficiency Rule, which established
specific requirements for all water systems to use water efficiently and demonstrate that
they are doing so. The purpose of the Water Use Efficiency Rule is to help conserve
water for the environment and future generations and also to enhance public health by
Now
improving water system efficiency and reliability. To comply with the new rule and its
Council/Water Use Efficiency Contract
May 29,2007
Page 2 of 2
implementation schedule, the City of Renton Water Utility must develop a Water Use Nolif
Efficiency Plan and submit the plan to DOH for approval by January 22, 2008.
The Water Utility selected R.W. Beck, Inc., from the approved 2007-2008 Utility
Systems Annual Consultant Roster, to develop the Water Use Efficiency Plan. The
Water Use Efficiency Plan will be designed to meet the requirements of the Municipal
Water Law, and provide the City with multiple approaches for reducing peak water use
and average day water consumption. R.W. Beck, Inc. has worked on the development of
the City's 2006 Comprehensive Water System Plan and is very familiar with the City's
continuing effort to promote water conservation and to protect its drinking water supply.
The key elements of the Water Use Efficiency Plan are:
1) Water use efficiency planning requirements: R.W. Beck, Inc. will develop reporting
templates for the City to collect data on water production and consumption. R.W. Beck,
Inc. will also provide demand forecast, leakage evaluation, selection of water use
efficiency measures, and recommend changes in City codes and policies to promote
water use efficiency. The information will be included in the annual performance report.
2) Distribution leakage standard: R.W. Beck, Inc. will evaluate our current practices on
water leakage monitoring and recommend improvements to minimize water loss in the
distribution system. R.W. Beck, Inc. will also develop a methodology for calculation of
distribution system leakage and a Water Loss Control Action Plan.
3) Water use efficiency goal-setting and performance reporting: R.W. Beck, Inc. will
work with City staff in the development of short-term and long-term goals for water use
efficiency including a schedule for the implementation of recommended water use
efficiency activities.
The Water Utility has budgeted sufficient funding for this consultant contract in the 2007
Capital Improvement Program budget for Water System Plan Update (account no.
425.000500.018.5960.0034.65.055140).
CONCLUSION:
The Water Utility needs to develop a Water Use Efficiency Plan to comply with the
requirements of the Municipal Water Law. R.W. Beck, Inc., was selected as the best
qualified firm to develop the Water Use Efficiency Plan. Council's approval of the
Consultant Agreement with R.W. Beck, Inc. will allow the Water Utility to complete the
Water Use Efficiency Plan and obtain the approval of the plan by the Department of
Health before the deadline of January 22, 2008.
