APPEAL: Planning&Development Committee Report re: Provost Variances Application INABILITY OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO TAKE TESTIMONY ON APPEALS DURING THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING State law requires that the City establish a process to handle appeals from application of environmental and developmental rules and regulations. The Renton City Council,feeling it was best for-the elected representatives to handle the appeals rather than require citizens to go to court, has retained appellate jurisdiction to itself. Li The courts have held that the City Council,while sitting as an appellate body,is acting as a quasi-judicial body and must obey rules of procedure of a court more than that of a political body. By City Code,and by State law,the City Council may not consider new evidence in this appeal. The parties to the appeal have had an opportunity to address their arguments to the Planning&Development Committee of the City Council at a meeting previously held. Because of the court requirements prohibiting the City Council from considering new evidence,and because all parties have had an opportunity to address their concerns to the Planning&Development Committee,the City Council may not consider oral or written testimony at the City Council meeting. The Council understands that this is frustrating to citizens and is outside the normal process of open discourse provided to citizenry during the audience comment portion of the City Council meeting. However,this burden of not allowing the Council to be addressed concerning pending appeals is outweighed by the quick,easy,inexpensive and local appeal process provided by the Renton City Council. 6.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION Communications Director Preeti Shridhar, Information Services Director AJLS: City Website Launch George McBride, and Senior Economic Development Specialist Mark Santos- Johnson reported on the launch of the City's new website. Mr. McBride indicated that the original website was launched in 1998, and he recognized Information Services Division staff members for their efforts in moving the content to the new site, as well as staff from various departments for their contributions. Reviewing the site's technical improvements, Mr. McBride pointed out that the ever-changing data can now be archived, and more contributors can immediately publish new content. Ms. Shridhar stated that the goals for the new website included improving the site to better serve the community; ensuring and reflecting Renton's vision, image, and mission; decentralizing the content creation; and reaffirming the City's commitment to customer service. She detailed Renton's two-phased launch approach,pointing out that the soft launch occurred on 10/3/2006, and the promotional launch is scheduled for 1/1/2007. Ms. Shridhar reviewed the user feedback received so far, as well as some of the changes made to the site in response to the feedback. October 9,2006 Renton City Council Minutes Page 339 Displaying the new website, Mr. Santos-Johnson explained that the site is organized into six primary sections: Living, Working, Visiting,Business, Government, and Emergencies. He reviewed various features of the site, and encouraged citizens to visit the website and complete the online survey to provide feedback about the site. Councilwoman Briere stated that she is impressed with the new, fresh look of the site. Council President Corman noted some of the new content on the site. Mayor Keolker thanked all staff who worked on this project. APPEAL Planning and Development Committee Chair Briere presented a majority report Planning& Development regarding the Provost variance appeal. The Committee heard this appeal on Committee Majority Report 10/5/2006. Applicants Al and Cindy Provost appealed the Hearing Examiner's Appeal: Provost Variances, decision denying their variance request for three stories, and sought a Alan & Cynthia Provost, V-06- modification of the Hearing Examiner's decision approving their setback 024 variance from ten feet to fifteen feet. (When the applicants previously applied for the same variance in 1997, the requirement called for a 20-foot setback from the shoreline. They were granted a ten-foot variance. Since that time, the Shoreline Management Program came into effect and the requirement now calls for a 25-foot setback. On this application,the applicants were again granted a ten-foot variance,but now,given the new Shoreline Management Program standards,this resulted in a 15-foot setback for the applicants.) On the shoreline setback modification request, the Committee recommended that the City Council find no substantial error in fact or law and affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner. On the issue of the story variance,the majority of the Committee recommended that the City Council find that the Hearing Examiner made a substantial error in fact. Accordingly, the majority recommended that the City Council grant the variance allowing three stories. The subject property is located north of 3707 Lake Washington Blvd. in the Kennydale area. The parcel extends into Lake Washington as it is located along the shoreline of Lake Washington. The applicants seek to construct a three- story single-family residence on the site. In order to do so, the applicants are required to obtain three variances, of which only two are at issue in this appeal. The applicants requested a variance: 1)to reduce the required front yard setback from twenty feet to five feet; 2)to exceed the two-story height limitation by one story; and 3)to reduce the required 25-foot setback from the Shoreline Master Program to a minimum of ten feet to the water's edge. Pursuant to City Code 4-8-110F(5) and (6), the Committee's decision and recommendation is limited to the record, which consists of, but is not limited to the Hearing Examiner's report, the notice of appeal, and the submissions by the parties. After reviewing the record, the submissions by the parties, and having heard oral argument, the Committee recommended as follows: as to the shoreline setback variance, the Committee found no basis to justify the additional five feet requested. The Hearing Examiner properly considered and applied the requisite variance criteria along with additional review issues brought about by the Shoreline Master Program. Therefore,the Committee recommended that the Council affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner. With respect to the story variance, the Hearing Examiner's reliance on population control as a basis for denying the additional story was misplaced. Accordingly,the majority of the Committee recommended that the City Council find that the Hearing Examiner made a substantial error of fact, and that the Council grant the variance allowing three stories.* October 9,2006 Renton City Council Minutes Page 340 Planning& Development Planning and Development Committee Vice Chair Clawson presented a Committee Minority Report minority report regarding the Provost variance appeal. The Committee heard Appeal: Provost Variances, this appeal on 10/5/2006. Applicants Al and Cindy Provost appealed the Alan& Cynthia Provost,V-06- Hearing Examiner's decision denying their variance request for three stories, 024 and sought a modification of the Hearing Examiner's decision approving their setback variance from ten feet to fifteen feet. On the shoreline setback modification request,the Committee recommended that the City Council find no substantial error in fact or law and affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner. I concur with this recommendation. However,on the issue of the story variance, I respectfully dissent from the majority of the Committee. I recommend that the City Council find no substantial error of fact or law in the Hearing Examiner's decision. Accordingly, I recommend that the City Council affirm the decision to deny the three-story variance. The Hearing Examiner's decision should be afforded due deference. A review of his decision shows that the Hearing Examiner carefully considered the four variance criteria for the three-story request. Having done so, the Hearing Examiner found no basis to justify the request. In an area where further development is likely, the Hearing Examiner pointed out that granting this particular variance would create an undue precedent. "Every home on a small lot or future home on small lots would be entitled to an additional story." (Hearing Examiner's decision, Provost Variance, 6/20/2006,page 9.) Furthermore,the Hearing Examiner correctly pointed out that the applicants still have reasonable use of the property and was hard pressed to see how the applicants would suffer an "undue hardship" to justify the variance. Based on this, I cannot join in the majority's recommendation to reverse the Hearing Examiner's decision on the three-story variance. Therefore, I recommend that the Council affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner denying the three-story variance. Noting the constrained lot and irregular shoreline, Councilwoman Briere explained that regulations call for two stories in that location with a maximum height of 30 feet. The applicants requested a three-story house within the 30- foot height limit. She indicated that the majority felt this request was reasonable, and that the Hearing Examiner made an error of fact based on his reliance on population control as one of his reasons for denying the request. Councilman Clawson stated that Council has adopted an ordinance limiting buildings in this zone to two stories. Rather than legislating through variances, he indicated that the building code should be reviewed in regards to allowing three-story buildings in these areas. He pointed out that an exception such as this will set a precedent for future requests. *MOVED BY BRIERE, SECONDED BY PERSSON, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE MAJORITY COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED. Councilman Law abstained from voting as the applicants are his neighbors.

AUDIENCE COMMENT Kirk Moore, 1901 Harrington Circle NE, Renton, 98056, expressed his Citizen Comment: Moore- displeasure that the Highlands redevelopment is depicted as an urban village on Highlands Area the City's website. He stressed that residents want a say in how the Highlands Redevelopment, Task Force area is developed. Mr. Moore questioned why he was not selected to serve on the Highlands Zoning Task Force as he is a well-qualified candidate. He urged Council to give Highlands residents a chance to voice their opinions.

Ms. DeMastus noted that she was also not selected to serve on the Highlands Zoning Task Force, and suggested that Council review the proposed task force members. Citizen Comment: Petersen - Inez Somerville Petersen, PO Box 1295, Renton, 98057, questioned whether a Various developer would have been treated the same way the Provosts were in regards to their variance appeal. On another subject, Ms. Petersen stated that some changes were made to the City's new website as a result of her input, and she praised staffs efforts on the project. Additionally, she thanked Mayor Keolker for the way she responded at last week's Council meeting on the topic of why firefighters did not attend the Highlands Community Association (HCA)picnic. Concluding, Ms. Petersen announced her resignation as secretary of the HCA. Citizen Comment: Provost- Al Provost, 3707 Lake Washington Blvd. N., Renton, 98056, spoke on the Provost Variances Appeal, subject of his variance appeal, and thanked Council for its decision granting the Alan& Cynthia Provost, V-06- three-story variance. In regards to the shoreline set-back variance modification, 024 which was denied, Mr. Provost pointed out the existence of three houses that are well within the shoreline setback that he is not allowed to build within. He noted that this appears to be a double standard, and suggested Council review of setbacks. Citizen Comment: Pepper- Pat Pepper, 28934 229th P1.

MOVED BY PERSSON, SECONDED BY LAW, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED. Development Services: Finance Committee Chair Persson presented a report regarding the fence Variance Fee Waiver Request, variance fee waiver request. The Committee met to consider a request by the Fence Height, Colee applicant to waive the application fee for a variance. The applicant intends to seek a variance from the City's fence regulations for an existing over-height fence. He appeared before Council to request that the variance application fee be waived because he is low income and cannot afford the fee. The established administrative variance fee is $100. Similar fee waiver requests have not been granted for land use permits in the past. Granting the waiver would set a precedent for future requests. Therefore, staff recommended that the requested fee waiver be denied. However, the Committee recognizes that the applicant has extenuating circumstances in that he is low income and disabled. Therefore, the Committee recommended that the Council approve the requested fee waiver. MOVED BY PERSSON, SECONDED BY LAW, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.

Applicants Al and Cindy Provost appealed the Hearing Examiner's Decision denying their variance request for three stories, and sought a modification of the Hearing Examiner's decision approving their setback variance from 10 feet to 15 feet. I On the shoreline setback modification request,the Committee recommends that the City Council finds no substantial error in fact or law and affirms the decision of the Hearing Examiner. On the issue of the story variance, the majority of the Committee recommends that the City Council find that the Hearing Examiner made a substantial error of fact. Accordingly, the majority recommends that the City Council grant the variance allowing three stories. The subject property is located north of 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard in the Kennydale area. The parcel extends into Lake Washington as it is located along the shoreline of Lake Washington. Applicant seeks to construct a three story single-family residence on the site. In order to do so, the Applicant is required to obtain three variances, of which only two are at issue in this appeal. The Applicants requested a variance: 1)to reduce the required front yard setback from 20 feet to 5 feet; 2) to exceed the two-story height limitation by one story; and 3) to reduce the required 25 foot setback from the Shoreline Master Program to a minimum of 10 feet to water's edge. Pursuant to RMC 4-8-110F(5) and(6),the Planning and Development Committee's decision and recommendation is limited to the record, which consists of,but is not limited to the Hearing Examiner's Report, the Notice of Appeal and the submissions by the Parties. After reviewing the record, the submissions by the parties and having heard oral argument, the Planning and Development Committee hereby recommends as follows: As to the shoreline setback variance, the Committee found no basis to justify the additional 5-feet requested. The Hearing Examiner properly considered and applied the requisite variance criteria along with additional review issues brought about by the Shoreline Master Program. Therefore, the Committee recommends that the Council affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner. With respect to the story variance, When the Applicants previously applied for the same variance in 1997,the requirement called for a 20-foot setback from the shoreline. They were granted a 10-foot variance. Since that time,the Shoreline Management Program came into effect and the requirement now calls for a 25-foot setback. On this application,Applicants were again granted a 10-foot variance,but now,given the new SMP standards,this resulted in a 15-foot setback for the Applicants. Planning and Development Committee Report Page 2 the Hearing Examiner's reliance on population control as a basis for denying the additional story was misplaced. Accordingly, the majority of the Committee recommends that the City Council find that the Hearing Examiner made a substantial error of fact, and that the Council grant the variance allowing three stories. It Tern Briere, air )99a/CtAZ' Marcie Palmer,Member cc: Neil Watts Jennifer Henning Lawrence J.Warren Fred Kau-Fnian No f SPP roved PLANNING& DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE COMMITTEE REPORT October 09, 2006 Appeal of PROVOST VARIANCE MINORITY REPORT File LUA-06-024, V-H (Referred July 17, 2006) The Planning and Development Committee ("Committee") heard this appeal on October 5, 2006. Applicants Al and Cindy Provost appealed the Hearing Examiner's Decision denying their variance request for three stories, and sought a modification of the Hearing Examiner's decision approving their setback variance from 10 feet to 15 feet. On the shoreline setback modification request, the Committee recommends that the City Council find no substantial error in fact or law and affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner. I concur with this recommendation. However, on the issue of the story variance, I respectfully dissent from the majority of the Committee. I recommend that the City Council find no substantial error of fact or law in the Hearing Examiner's decision. Accordingly, I recommend that the City Council affirm the decision to deny the three-story variance. The Hearing Examiner's decision should be afforded due deference. A review of his decision shows that the Hearing Examiner carefully considered the four variance criteria for the three- story request. Having done so, the Hearing Examiner found no basis to justify the request. In an area where further development is likely,the Hearing Examiner pointed out that granting this particular variance would create an undue precedent. "Every home on a small lot or future home on small lots would be entitled to an additional story." (Hearing Examiner's Decision, Provost Variance, June 20, 2006,page 9.) Furthermore, the Hearing Examiner correctly pointed out that the Applicant still has reasonable use of his property and was hard pressed to see how the Applicant would suffer an"undue hardship"to justify the variance. Based on this, I cannot join in the majority's recommendation to reverse the Hearing Examiner's decision on the three-story variance. Therefore, I recommend that the Council affirm the decision of the Hearing Examiner denying the three-story variance. .,i Dan Clawson, ice Chair cc: Neil Watts Jennifer Henning Lawrence J.Warren Fred Kaufman C.)<CY O ADMINISTRATIVE, JUDICIAL, AND ;; C , LEGAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT • -N�O� MEMORANDUM DATE: October 9, 2006 TO: Randy Corman, 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: • A tour of the Henry Moses Aquatic Center will be included as part of the National Recreation and Park Association's 41st Annual Congress and Exposition this week.

RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the hiring of Derek Akesson as a Civil Engineer III in the Transportation Design Section up to Step E of pay grade a27 effective November 1, 2006. BACKGROUND: This position became vacant when Jason Fritzler resigned in September to enter private consulting. Derek Akesson is one of the very few applicants the City has. He is a Professional Engineer (P.E.) and has excellent experience. His current salary is just under Step D of pay grade a27 and the engineering market is very tight these days (for example, recently the City of Auburn offered $5,000 one time signing bonuses to engineers). The City would like to be able to offer a salary, which would result in Mr. Akesson accepting this position. Alternatives Deny this request and start the process of hiring from the beginning.

The applicant intends to seek a variance from the City's Fence Regulations for an existing overheight fence. He appeared before Council to request that the variance application fee be waived because he is low income and cannot afford the fee. The established administrative variance fee is $100. Similar fee waiver requests have not been granted for land use permits in the past. Granting the waiver would set a precedent for future requests. Therefore, staff recommended that the requested fee waiver be denied. However, the Finance Committee recognizes that the applicant has extenuating circumstances in that he is low income and disabled. Therefore, the Committee recommends that the Council approve the requested fee waiver. Don Persson, Chair Denis W.
