NOTE: The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary is preliminary and non-
binding and may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official City decision-makers. Review
comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by
City staff or made by the applicant.
I have completed a preliminary review of the application for the St. Andrew Church Addition located at
3604 NE 10th Ct. The King County Parcel Number is 1065700110. The applicant is proposing to add a
5,170 SF addition for a new sanctuary.
WATER COMMENTS
1. Water service is provided by the City of Renton. It is in the Highlands service area in the 565’
hydraulic pressure zone. The approximate static water pressure is 58 psi at a ground elevation
of 430’.
2. There is an existing 6” cast iron water main south of the site along the northern edge of NE 10th
Court. Reference Project File WTR2700233 in COR Maps for record drawings. There is also an
existing 8” ductile iron water main in the western portion of the site that runs in a north south
direction. Reference Project File WTR2702269 in COR Maps for record drawings. Both water
mains can deliver a flowrate of 1,280 gallons per minute (gpm) to a maximum of 1,880 gpm
depending on the point of connection for the hydrants.
3. Based upon the information submitted in the pre-application package, the Fire Department has
determined that the preliminary fire flow for the total structure is 2,250 gpm. This exceeds the
available capacity of the water distribution system around the property. In order to meet fire

flow demands, an 8” water main extension from the intersection of Olympia Avenue NE and NE
10th Court to the west to the intersection of Redmond Avenue NE and NE 10th Lane to the
southeast. This would create a continuous 8” water main from Olympia Avenue NE to NE 10th
Lane.
4. The church is served by an existing 6” fire sprinkler service. The applicant shall consult a fire
sprinkler designer to determine if the existing service can supply adequate flow and pressure for
the additional fire sprinkler system for the proposed building addition.
5. The church is served by an existing 1” domestic water service.
6. One new additional fire hydrant will be required within 300’ of the building. There two existing
fire hydrants will need to be retrofitted with 5” Storz fittings to bring it up to code.
FYI: There are two existing fire hydrants in the parcel vicinity. One is located in the northwest
corner of the site (COR Facility ID HYD-NE-00842) and the other is located near the southwest
corner of the site along the northern NE 10th Court frontage (COR Facility ID HYD-NE 00171).
7. A System Development Charges (SDC) would be applicable only if the meter is upsized or a new
meter is added as part of the expansion.
SEWER COMMENTS
1. Sewer service is provided by the City of Renton.
2. There is an existing 8” PVC sewer running north to south in the eastern portion of the site.
Reference Project File WWP2701707 in COR Maps for record drawings.
3. No sewer services or sewer main extensions would be required.
4. A System Development Charges (SDC) would be applicable only if the water meter is upsized as
part of the expansion. The SDC for sewer service is based on the size of the domestic water
service.
STORM DRAINAGE COMMENTS
1. The existing site contains an existing church that is 8,260 SF, two outbuildings that are 1,223 SF,
and existing asphalt and gravel parking lots. The majority of the site contains no onsite
conveyance system. The site is relatively flat, with little change in slope. There is a low point in
the southeastern portion of the site where a type 1 catch basin is located (COR Facility ID
112874). Drainage collected in this catch basin is conveyed south by a 12” CMP storm drain
(COR Facility ID 109559) to the public storm drain in NE 10th Court. Drainage not collected by
this catch basin either infiltrates or sheet flows off-site. Drainage along the NE 10th Court
frontage is conveyed along the curb line to one of two type 1 catch basins. One of the catch
basins (COR Facility ID 113639) is located near the site’s southwest corner while the other catch
basin (COR Facility ID 134899) is located near the site’s southeast corner.
