Home My WebLink AboutLicense Appeal1 2775 Harbor Avenue SW, Suite D Seattle, WA 98126 -2138 Tel: 206.212.0032 Fax: 206.770.6548 TO: Mr. Chip Vincent, Community and Economic Development Administrator Renton City Hall 1055 S. Grady Way Renton, WA 98057 FROM: Rocky White, Attorney Matt Davis, Attorney Juan Gonzalez & Graciela Gonzalez, Alan Mattress Outlet LLC. DATE: November 17, 2016 Please take notice that Juan Gonzalez hereby appeals the denial of his application for a Home Occupancy permit for the property commonly known as 16527 116th Avenue SE, Renton, WA 98058. I. FACTUAL BACKGROUND. Juan Gonzalez immigrated to the United States from Mexico in 1985 and settled in Renton. Juan has an entrepreneurial nature, and decided to start his own business selling mattresses. His business is based on purchasing excess inventory in the Seattle area and selling the mattresses in eastern Washington. He has developed this concept into an established business that supports his family and allowed him to purchase a home in Renton. Although he lives in Renton, his business is conducted elsewhere. He purchases mattresses from large companies across western Washington. His sales take place exclusively east of the Cascades. When Mr. Gonzalez looked for a home to purchase, he had his business in mind. Specifically, he needed a property with a place to store mattresses and where he could park his box trucks. He found a neighborhood where many other homes had signs of business activity and where a number of trucks were parked either in the street or on the properties. He ultimately found a home on two parcels, one of which had the house and the other had a 1,000 square foot standalone garage. The property was perfect because it had a large driveway that would easily accommodate his trucks. After closing on the home in December 2015, Mr. Gonzales and his family have occupied the home without any problems. The trucks are frequently parked on the property, and up to twenty mattresses are stored in the garage, but none of the neighbors have complained to him about it. The garage is 80 feet from the street, and the trucks are more than 50 feet away. Mr. Gonzalez and his wife do much of the administrative work for the business on a laptop in the home, but neither the residence nor the garage are used to conduct business. - 2 - Since moving into the home, Mr. Gonzalez and his family have enjoyed good relations with their neighbors. They have maintained their property, and their use has not been out of the norm for the area. None of the neighbors have complained about the trucks or even mentioned them. All of this changed in July 2016, when Mr. Gonzalez received a letter from the City declaring him in violation of the Home Occupation code provisions. Exhibit 19. No one from the City contacted him beforehand. The letter appeared to assume many things that were not true. Mr. Gonzalez and his wife gathered the documents and prepared to explain that they were not conducting business at the property, and they went to City Hall to see if they could resolve this. They were met by Donna Locher. Ms. Locher pulled them aside and brusquely told them that she did not care about any documents they brought, and she refused to read or consider them. Mr. Gonzalez explained that the letters were addressed to someone different and the name of the offending business was different. Ms. Locher roughly grabbed his letter, crossed out the name and replaced it with his last name and said “There, now it’s addressed to you”. She then told them that they were in violation of the Code and that they had until the end of the month to move all their business belongings out of the property. Ms. Locher never explained why his use violated the Code. When Mr. Gonzalez asked about applying for a permit, Ms. Locher told him that it would be a waste of time because it would be denied. Mr. Gonzalez and his wife left City Hall feeling dejected. Mr. Gonzalez has no other place to park his trucks. If he can’t park his trucks on his property, they will have to move houses and transfer their three children to a new school. Mr. Gonzalez and his family had lived in a house in Renton a little more than half a mile away for nine years, and he had owned a commercial truck for all of that time. He had always parked his trucks on his property or on the right-of-way, and he had never had any problems with the City over it. He also had seen countless other homeowners do the same. As Mr. Gonzalez understood the law, he was not violating it. Facing a threatened move-out, Mr. Gonzalez then hired counsel. Counsel filed a business license application with Renton on October 18, 2016. Exhibit 8. After not hearing a response from the city for multiple weeks, counsel called the City and found out that the application was awaiting approval from one code inspector, Ms. Locher. His attorneys attempted to open a discussion with Ms. Locher about the property, but she was not receptive. Counsel tried to call Ms. Locher multiple times the week of November 1 and November 7, but their voice mails went unanswered. On November 14, 2016, counsel sent an email to Locher stating, “If you have a moment to discuss this matter, please give me a call. I would like to make sure that our client is making progress and that your questions are being answered.” Exhibit 1. Ms. Locher responded with an email stating: Attached are a couple of photos of the property from different days. The garage is also full of mattresses. We received a complaint and a site inspection noted a business was being run from this property .There should be no outside signs of a home occupation business other than the permitted two square foot sign. Exhibit 2. Counsel responded with a lengthy email addressing the provisions of the Code and again asking to discuss the matter. Exhibit 2. No response was received. After waiting for nearly two months for the license to be approved, counsel sent another email on December 7, 2016 stating, “We would like to set up a meeting with you both to go over the codes and discuss the application” and proposing available dates. Ms. Locher responded two days later, “I will have a response for you next week. We can decide after that whether or not to meet.” Exhibit 4. - 3 - Ms. Locher’s next communication was her denial of the permit on December 23, 2016. Exhibit 20. Ms. Locher’s letter quoted portions of the Renton Municipal Code and then included comments in red text. For clarity, the quoted portions of the code are in bold, and her comments are in red text. The denial appears to have three grounds. 1. Retail Sales. In his application, Mr. Gonzalez identified the business as “Premium discounted mattress merchant with business primarily in Pasco, Washington.” Exhibit 8. Mr. Gonzalez does not sell mattresses from his home, nor does he wish to engage in home retail sales. On the second page of the Home Based Business application Mr. Gonzalez checked the box indicating that his business will not conduct retail sales from the home. Exhibit 9. In addition, he included a written addendum explicitly stating that he does not conduct retail sales from his home. Exhibit 9. Furthermore, in an earlier November 16, email to Ms. Locher, counsel explained that:  No sales occur at the residence.  No customers come to the residence.  No sales are transacted at the residence.  The residence has no sign at all because it is not open to the public as a business, either on a schedule or by appointment. It is the location where the owners fill out forms and keep their business records. Exhibit 2. The denial, however, cites the prohibition of retail sales as the first reason for the decision. Ms. Locher quoted the code in red text: b. Retail Sales and Storage: No retail sales shall be allowed, except for sales of products made on the premises. Incidental supplies necessary for business operations may be kept if not for sale. Products may be sold wholesale and stored for wholesale distribution. It is not at all clear why the denial refers to retail sales. 2. Parking and Trucks. The denial next refers to the trucks. It quotes the section prohibiting an expansion of the parking, and then asserts that “The addition of two commercial vehicles expands additional on- site parking. The gross vehicle weight on one truck is 16,000 and the other is 12,000.” Exhibit 20. It is not clear why the City believes that parking a truck on an existing driveway would “expand parking.” Mr. Gonzalez has not modified or expanded the driveway in any way. Throughout the Renton Municipal Code, “Parking” usually refers to the area where vehicles are parked, not to how many vehicles are parked on a particular property. The trucks are parked on an approved driveway. The denial then goes on to cite a number of provisions in Title X. Title X governs traffic on rights-of-way. It cites Section 10-10-12, which prohibits parking buses and trucks within any residential zone, but does not specifically say whether it applies to private property. However, the denial does not refer to the rated capacity of Mr. Gonzalez’ trucks. It refers instead to the gross vehicle weight. 10-10-12 Overnight Parking of Certain Vehicles Prohibited: It shall henceforth be unlawful to park within any residential zone (SR-1, SR-2, R-1 through R-4, T and G) within the City from the hours of nine o’clock (9:00) P.M. to six o’clock (6:00) A.M. the following types of vehicles: - 4 - B. Buses and trucks used for business purposes in whole or in part excluding pickup or panel trucks of less than one ton rated capacity. (Ord. 3428, 4-28-80; amd. Ord. 4271, 6-18-90). The gross vehicle weight on one truck is 16,000 and the other is 12,000. G. Public Right-of-Way: Public right-of-way shall include any dedicated or developed property used or intended for use as public streets, alleys or other means of public ingress, egress or passage whether the property of the City, County or State. The gross vehicle weight on one truck is 16,000 and the other is 12,000. The denial also specifically quotes and refers to Section 10-10-13, but that section is expressly limited to parking on a right-of-way. 10-10-13 Parking Of Certain Commercial Vehicles or Vehicles over Twelve Thousand Pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Regulations: Parking; Residential Developments: It shall be unlawful to park any commercially licensed or any vehicle over twelve thousand (12,000) pounds gross vehicle weight on any public right-of-way in which all of the adjacent structures are occupied as residential dwellings. Adjacent structures shall mean those structures on the same side of the right-of-way as the area for parking and within the same block. The gross vehicle weight on one truck is 16,000 and the other is 12,000 Renton has no clear prohibition against parking commercial vehicles on privately owned residential property. If it enacted one, a large number of trucks in the area around the Gonzalez home would have to be removed. 3. Space Limits. The denial asserts that the business use exceeds the 500 square feet limit for home occupations under the Municipal Code. g. Space: The business shall not occupy more than twenty five percent (25%) of the floor space of the gross floor area of the residence, and in no event, more than five hundred (500) square Feet. The square footage of the garage alone is 500 square feet. b. Retail Sales and Storage: No retail sales shall be allowed, except for sales of products made on the premises. Incidental supplies necessary for business operations may be kept if not for sale. Products may be sold wholesale and stored for wholesale distribution. m. Accessory Structures: Existing garages with adequate access may be used for home occupations; provided, that the property still complies with the parking requirements of the zone. Other accessory structures, such as carports and tool sheds, shall not be used for any activities associated with the business other than storage. Such storage shall be completely enclosed and not be visible from outside the accessory structure. Accessory structures providing shelter for domestic animals or household pets that are a component of the home occupation are allowed. (Ord. 5356, 2-25-2008) - 5 - b. Retail Sales and Storage: No retail sales shall be allowed, except for sales of products made on the premises. Incidental supplies necessary for business operations may be kept, if not for sale. Products may be sold wholesale and stored for wholesale distribution. The City has never inspected the property or requested an inspection. It has no way to know how much the property is used by the business. As a factual matter, the business use is far less than 500 square feet. II. ANALYSIS Section 4-9-090 sets forth both the policy of the City and the requirements for home occupations. The denial is inconsistent with both. A. NO HOME OCCUPANCY EXISTS. A “home occupation” is defined in 4-9-090(A) as a “commercial use conducted entirely within a dwelling or garage and carried on by persons residing in that dwelling unit which is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling as a residence.” Two critical elements of that definition are “commercial use” and “entirely within a dwelling or garage.” Only a use that meets both of those requirements is even subject to the ordinance. The term “commercial use” is defined by the Code very clearly: “A type of land use that includes commercial office activities, services and/or retail sales.” Commercial use means doing business. It means commerce. The storage of 20 mattresses is not a commercial use. If the City were to interpret the temporary storage of property to be a commercial use, the ramifications would be endless. A travelling salesperson could not keep his or her inventory at home. Attorneys could not bring work home. The Code is intended to regulate people who conduct a business from their homes, not people who use their homes as a place to facilitate work that is done elsewhere. It is for that reason that Code also applies only to a commercial use that is conducted entirely on the property. In this case, almost all of the activity takes place in eastern Washington. The purpose of Alan Mattress Outlet is to sell mattresses in Pasco. No mattresses are sold from the property. For these reasons, Section 4-9-090 does not even apply at all. No permit is required, and the City’s enforcement action should be dismissed. B. THE DENIAL IGNORES THE PURPOSE OF THE ORDINANCE. To carry out the City policy and the purpose of the ordinance, Section 4-9-090 sets forth a detailed process for considering Home Occupation applications. It authorizes the Zoning Administrator to impose conditions on a Home Occupation permit to ensure that the policy and the purpose of the Code are satisfied. Counsel for Gonzalez repeatedly requested a meeting to discuss conditions for a permit, but the City simply refused to meet. Section 4-9-090(B) sets forth the policy of the City with regard to Home Occupations. That policy recognizes a legitimate “need for some citizens to use their place of residence for limited nonresidential activities.” It further identifies the interests of other citizens that are to be considered in approving or denying applications as “freedom from excessive noise, excessive traffic, nuisance, fire hazard and other possible adverse effects of home occupations.” - 6 - Section 4-9-090 exists to permit Home Occupations as long as they do not unreasonably interfere with the rights of other residents. It requires the City to consider whether a Home Occupation can be permitted with conditions rather than simply denying an application out of hand. C. THE APPLICATION SHOULD HAVE BEEN APPROVED. When an application satisfies the requirements of section 4-9-090, it should be approved. Section 4-9-090 specifically lists the factors that are to be considered, but the City did not consider them. a. Primary Residence: The property on which the business is located must be the primary residence of the business owner. The home is the primary residence of Mr. Gonzalez and his family. b. Retail Sales and Storage: No retail sales shall be allowed, except for sales of products made on the premises. Incidental supplies necessary for business operations may be kept if not for sale. Products may be sold wholesale and stored for wholesale distribution. No retail sales take place on the property. That has been made clear to the City, but was still the first reason stated for denying the application. c. Parking: There shall be no expansion of parking, including the addition of on-site or off-site parking spaces, to support the home occupation. This provision is very clear about what is meant by “parking.” Parking means parking spaces. No changes of any kind have been made to the approved parking for the property. d. Employees: The home occupation shall not employ more than one nonresident of the dwelling unit. An employee for these purposes means one individual, not a full-time equivalent. In addition, home occupations may use professional services such as accountants. No nonresidents are employed by Alan Mattress Outlet. e. Mechanical/Electrical Equipment: There shall be no use of mechanical or electrical equipment that would change the structure or create visible or audible interference in radio or television receivers or cause fluctuations in line voltage outside the dwelling unit. The business does not use anything but ordinary consumer devices at the property. f. Environmental Impacts: There shall be no noise, vibration, smoke, gas, dust, odor, heat or glare produced by the business which would exceed that normally associated with a dwelling. The City has never claimed any problems with noise or other nuisances. Nothing is done on the property that could cause such problems. - 7 - g. Space: The business shall not occupy more than twenty five percent (25%) of the floor space of the gross floor area of the residence, and in no event, more than five hundred (500) square feet. The “residence” is the home, and the business occupies the space of a single desk. Section 4-9-090 treats garages differently, but even if it did not, the space to store 20 mattresses is perhaps a hundred square feet. h. Outdoor Storage: The outdoor storage or display of materials, goods, products or equipment is prohibited. Domestic animals or household pets kept as an accessory use and utilized as a component of a home occupation are excluded from this provision. (Ord. 5356, 2-25-2008) No materials are stored outdoors. Mr. Gonzalez stores surplus mattresses in his garage. i. Flammable Liquids: A permit must be obtained for storage, handling or use of Class I flammable or combustible liquids on the premises. No flammable liquids are used in the business. j. Fire Extinguisher: A minimum rated 2-A 10 BC fire extinguisher is required on the premises. Mr. Gonzalez has a proper fire extinguisher in his house. k. City Codes: The home occupation must meet all City codes and ordinances for type of business being conducted. The property is fully permitted, and the City has never even asked to inspect it. l. Building Alterations: Any alterations to the building shall be conducted pursuant to the issuance of a permit from the Planning/Building/Public Works Department. No alterations to the building have been done. m. Accessory Structures: Existing garages with adequate access may be used for home occupations; provided, that the property still complies with the parking requirements of the zone. Other accessory structures, such as carports and tool sheds, shall not be us ed for any activities associated with the business other than storage. Such storage shall be completely enclosed and not be visible from outside the accessory structure. Accessory structures providing shelter for domestic animals or household pets that are a component of the home occupation are allowed. (Ord. 5356, 2-25-2008) An existing garage is used and the parking remains unchanged. No sheds or carports are used for the business. The garage has adequate free space to park two cars. None of the stored property is visible to the public. n. Signage: There shall be no exterior or window signage, display, or advertising except for one nonelectric and nonilluminated sign attached flush to the wall or window of the building with the face of the sign in a plane parallel to the plane of the wall or window. The allowed building sign may not be larger than two (2) square feet in area. The sign material and appearance must be harmonious with the architecture of the home. - 8 - Pursuant to RMC 4-4-100(B)(6)(q), a permit is not required for the allowed building sign. No signs are used on the property. Mr. Gonzalez complies with all of Renton’s standards to qualify for a home based business license. When considered in context with the neighborhood, his business is indistinguishable from those of his neighbors. Mr. Gonzalez is simply requesting he be treated similarly to his neighbors and allowed to run his business. D. THE CITY FAILED TO CONSIDER AN APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS The City has the ability to approve a home occupation with conditions. Mr. Gonzalez is willing to work with the city in whatever way he can. He told Ms. Locher twice that he was willing to work with the city to establish conditions of running his business, but all entreaties were ignored. Mr. Gonzalez remains willing to work with the city to find appropriate conditions to minimize any impact on other residents. He removed all signage from his trucks, and he is also willing to consider limiting activity at the residence, ensuring they do not produce excessive noise, and planting vegetation to act as a screen. Mr. Gonzalez is confident that he can find some common ground with the City if it will meet with him in good faith. E. THE CITY FAILED TO CONSIDER THE NEIGHBORING HOME OCCUPATIONS. Lastly, the City failed to consider the general purpose of the code or consider the surrounding neighborhood when approving or denying Mr. Gonzalez’s application. Section 2 of the Home Occupation Code reads as follows: 2. Compliance: Compliance with all conditions placed on the home occupation by the Zoning Administrator to satisfy the general purpose of this Section. In addition to the provisions set forth herein, the Zoning Administrator may, in approving, conditioning or denying the application, consider the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City-approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity. As the code above states, an approval or denial of a Home Based business application should be analyzed with regard to the general purpose of the code. Ms. Locher did no such analysis when contemplating compliance with the code. Codes like this are created entirely with the purpose of providing a framework from which to judge new applicants. The compliance inspector cannot simply issue an arbitrary decision without consulting the codes that her own city created for this very purpose. The codes serve as an unbiased method to judge applicants that eliminates prejudice or personal resentment on the part of the inspector. This lack of adherence to the code framework is concerning. If Ms. Locher were to analyze the code it would have become clear that Mr. Gonzalez’s business satisfies the general purpose of this code. He does not run a busy business that receives clients nor does he create excessive disturbances in the neighborhood. Most importantly, the code inspector has wide latitude to take into consideration the atmosphere of the neighborhood when approving or denying an application. Section 4-9-090(F)(2) states that a home occupation approval can consider “the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City-approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity”. We pointed out this factor at least three times to Ms. Locher, and we were ignored every time. We - 9 - suspect the City’s main hesitation is Mr. Gonzalez’s trucks he parks in the driveway. The Benson neighborhood is a working neighborhood with many home based businesses and an abundance of commercial vehicles parked outside of houses. Despite this, it is evident that Ms. Locher did not consider any of the surrounding businesses when singling out Mr. Gonzalez for denial. We sent the City photographs of many neighboring homes with ongoing commercial uses that are indistinguishable from our clients. Some neighbors had commercial trucks parked in the front yard, and others had entire semi-trucks parked outside on the street. A drive through the neighborhood in the evening reveals many neighbors park their commercial vehicles in front of their houses. For example: 10935 SE 162nd St. Renton WA 98055 - Has two commercial trucks and a full length 18 wheeler truck parked outside. Exhibit 10. 11135 SE 164th St. Renton WA 97055 - A transit bus, a truck, a commercial van, and two commercial trailers. Exhibit 11. 11637 SE 184th St. Renton WA 98058 - A semi-truck parked in front. Exhibit 12. 11870 SE 157th Pl, Renton, WA 98058 - Two commercial vans parked in the street, one with a full side advertisement for King Kleaning Co. Exhibit 13. 12711 SE Petrovitsky Rd, Renton, WA 98058 - Two commercial trucks with advertisements. Exhibit 14. 16433 111th Ave se Renton WA 98055 - Two commercial trucks. One brightly painted yellow and the other red. Exhibit 15. 17768 110th Pl SE, Renton, WA 98055 - A commercial van outside with signage. Exhibit 16. In addition, a quick view of the neighborhood from Google Maps shows countless home based businesses that are unsanctioned by Renton. We counted six business within a mile of Mr. Gonzalez’s house that have no business license whatsoever. Exhibit 18. For a view of the map of Renton permitted home occupations in the Benson area cross-referenced with a Google map, refer to Exhibit 17. It is evident that Mr. Gonzalez’s neighborhood is full of unsanctioned home businesses and commercial vehicles parked outside of houses. If the city were to do an analysis of Mr. Gonzalez’s application with regard to section 4-9-090(F)(2) considering the “cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City-approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity”, the city would find that the cumulative impacts of Mr. Gonzalez’s business is no greater than that of his neighbors. III. CONCLUSION The purpose of the City of Renton business licensing division is to facilitate business within its borders. The city’s job is to use the municipal code to encourage businesses to exist in compliance with the law. The City code compliance division is meant to regulate businesses, not regulate them out of existence. When a Renton resident is attempting to comply with the law, the City’s job is to do what they can to help them. Mr. Gonzalez approached the city in good faith seeking to understand how to comply with the code, but received complete rejection. Mr. Gonzalez - 10 - did what a responsible resident is supposed to do. But the City of Renton has not fulfilled their duty. The City’s job is to facilitate residents in running a business properly, not to find any possible way of denying a business. The City did not investigate or consider the facts in the case, and did not follow the ordinance in reviewing the application. Instead, the City arbitrarily denied the application on grounds that it does not apply to other Renton residents. Mr. Gonzalez does not want a fight with Renton. He just wants his Business License so that he can enjoy the same rights as his neighbors. The denial of his license should be reversed, and an order should be issued either to grant the license or to reconsider the application in accordance with the ordinance. 1 Rocky White From:Matt Davis Sent:Monday, November 14, 2016 3:08 PM To:Rocky White; Dlocher@rentonwa.gov; Law Desk Cc:jcglezmtz60@gmail.com Subject:RE: Follow Up on Alan Mattress Business License Ms. Locher, Rocky is in Mexico for a few weeks.

Exhibit 1 1 Rocky White From:Rocky White Sent:Thursday, November 17, 2016 11:46 AM To:'Dlocher@rentonwa.gov' Cc:Matt Davis Subject:Follow Up on Alan Mattress Business License Hello Ms. Locher, Thank you for updating us with the information and pictures. Your email comes at the perfect time, we were carefully reviewing the Renton home occupation codes. From our conversations with Juan and Graciela Gonzalez, here is a little more information for you:  The administrative work for the business is done at the property in what amounts to a home office.  No employees work at the residence.  No sales occur at the residence.  No customers come to the residence.  No sales are transacted at the residence.  The residence has no sign because it is not open to the public as a business, either on a schedule or by appointment. It is the location where the owners fill out forms and keep their business records.  The second garage is used to store mattresses for the business.  Two large trucks are owned by the business, those were shown in the pictures that you provided. I understand that they are parked there regularly.  Our clients are minority business owners who operate in a clever business niche, they purchase overstock mattresses from local warehouses and then take them to the Pasco area for sale. The Gonzalez’s moved to this double‐wide residential lot because they loved the ample space it provided to run their business. They have attempted to comply with what they understood to be the law and to be courteous to their neighbors. However, they have noticed they are the first Latinos on this block and have received a cold treatment by their neighbors. With all of this in mind, we have carefully read and considered RMC 4‐9‐090, which appears to be the entire law on the subject. As we read the ordinance, the only issue should be the trucks. The mattresses can be restricted to inside the garage and the rest of the activities can be hidden from sight. These activities do not seem to rise to the level of Section F(1)(a), but nevertheless we are in the process of preparing a Development Services Division Application in the in interest of being thorough. Under 4‐9‐090, the Zoning Administrator appears to have broad discretion in these matters. We can readily see from the photographs why the City might object to the trucks. Renton actually appears to have little if any direct regulation of off‐street parking in this regard. It does prohibit the outdoor storage of “equipment” but trucks ordinarily are not considered to be “equipment.” The ability to park the trucks at the property is extremely beneficial to our clients in terms of convenience and both cost and time savings. We would like to see if the Zoning Administrator would approve the parking of the trucks under certain conditions. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzalez are willing to work with the city in whatever way they can; they are willing to remove the signage on the trucks or even repaint the trucks if white is too drastic of a color. We are confident that we can find some common ground that could include no commercial signs on the trucks and perhaps some kind of screening that would satisfy the Zoning Administrator and the ordinance. Exhibit 2 2 In this respect, Section F(2) of the Ordinance makes it clear that the standard for a decision is “the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City‐approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity.” For us to submit a thoughtful application, we need to know the location of other nearby Home Occupation permits so that we can determine the prevailing standards.

Exhibit 2 1 Rocky White From:Rocky White Sent:Monday, November 28, 2016 12:37 PM To:'Linda Weldon' Cc:Donna Locher; Matt Davis Subject:RE: Follow Up on Alan Mattress Business License Hello Linda, Thank you for passing along the original email. We did receive that email on the 14th and responded to it on the 17th. However, we haven’t heard a response to our email. I have also tried calling Donna multiple times and have never received a response. We would very much like to start progressing on this matter, is there another on‐point authority or ombudsman we should contact to have our questions answered and open a dialog? Here is a copy of the email response. Thu 11/17/2016 11:46 AM Hello Ms. Locher, Thank you for updating us with the information and pictures. Your email comes at the perfect time, we were carefully reviewing the Renton home occupation codes. From our conversations with Juan and Graciela Gonzalez, here is a little more information for you:  The administrative work for the business is done at the property in what amounts to a home office.  No employees work at the residence.  No sales occur at the residence.  No customers come to the residence.  No sales are transacted at the residence.  The residence has no sign because it is not open to the public as a business, either on a schedule or by appointment. It is the location where the owners fill out forms and keep their business records.  The second garage is used to store mattresses for the business.  Two large trucks are owned by the business, those were shown in the pictures that you provided. I understand that they are parked there regularly.  Our clients are minority business owners who operate in a clever business niche, they purchase overstock mattresses from local warehouses and then take them to the Pasco area for sale. The Gonzalez’s moved to this double‐wide residential lot because they loved the ample space it provided to run their business. They have attempted to comply with what they understood to be the law and to be courteous to their neighbors. However, they have noticed they are the first Latinos on this block and have received a cold treatment by their neighbors. With all of this in mind, we have carefully read and considered RMC 4‐9‐090, which appears to be the entire law on the subject. As we read the ordinance, the only issue should be the trucks. The mattresses can be restricted to inside the garage and the rest of the activities can be hidden from sight. These activities do not seem to rise to the level of Section F(1)(a), but nevertheless we are in the process of preparing a Development Services Division Application in the in interest of being thorough. Exhibit 3 2 Under 4‐9‐090, the Zoning Administrator appears to have broad discretion in these matters. We can readily see from the photographs why the City might object to the trucks. Renton actually appears to have little if any direct regulation of off‐street parking in this regard. It does prohibit the outdoor storage of “equipment” but trucks ordinarily are not considered to be “equipment.” The ability to park the trucks at the property is extremely beneficial to our clients in terms of convenience and both cost and time savings. We would like to see if the Zoning Administrator would approve the parking of the trucks under certain conditions. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzalez are willing to work with the city in whatever way they can; they are willing to remove the signage on the trucks or even repaint the trucks if white is too drastic of a color. We are confident that we can find some common ground that could include no commercial signs on the trucks and perhaps some kind of screening that would satisfy the Zoning Administrator and the ordinance. In this respect, Section F(2) of the Ordinance makes it clear that the standard for a decision is “the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City‐approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity.” For us to submit a thoughtful application, we need to know the location of other nearby Home Occupation permits so that we can determine the prevailing standards. If you would kindly forward such a list to us, we will act on it immediately. Mr. and Mrs. Gonzalez value the character of the neighborhood, and we understand Renton wants to encourage entrepreneurs. I look forward to hearing back from you and finding a resolution that will satisfy the needs and concerns of all involved.

As we understand the Renton city codes, home occupation permits will be granted according to the character of the neighborhood. Since we have yet to receive a list of permitted home occupations in the vicinity, our clients have taken some photos of houses in the neighborhood. Many of these homes have commercial vehicles, taxis, and even semi‐trucks parked on the property. We understand these neighboring properties are factored into the prevailing standards of the home occupation approval, and thought you would be interested in seeing the photos. Let me know if you would like any more information from our clients.

Exhibit 6 3 Exhibit 6 1 Rocky White From:Rocky White Sent:Monday, January 2, 2017 3:56 PM To:'Donna Locher' Cc:Matt Davis; 'jcglezmtz60@gmail.com'; 'Vanessa Dolbee'; 'jhenning@rentonwa.gov'; 'weldon@rentonwa.gov' Subject:Alan Mattress Home Occupation Denial Dear Ms. Locher: The denial of our client’s application for a Home Occupation Business License was a disappointment, but not a surprise in light of the City’s handling of this matter. We are prepared to appeal before January 6, but I am writing to see if we can resolve this in a more rational manner. I would expect an application like this to result in questions from the City and an exchange of information, but instead we received a denial that we do not understand. I am requesting that the City agree to reconsider its decision and to issue a new decision on the application that would generate a new appeal deadline. If the City will not reconsider, then we will proceed with our appeal and if necessary a lawsuit. The City should be on notice that we are prepared to bring an action for damages and attorney fees for an arbitrary and capricious decision under RCW 64.40.020. At the outset, please be advised that our client’s surname is Gonzalez, not Martinez. Your letter was addressed to the wrong person, and that suggests a lack of attention to the particulars of the application. In the same way, the denial is based on facts that do not exist, such as retail sales from the premises. Mr. Gonzalez told you that he does not conduct retail sales, but you denied his application in part on the grounds that he does. The denial has little or nothing to do with the application. The denial also states that the use requires the expansion of on‐site parking. The term “parking” is not defined in the RMC, but variants of it are. It clearly refers to the parts of the property that are developed for parking. The parking has not been modified in any way. The same driveway and the same garage that the City approved are still in the same location and condition. The denial does not explain when it means with the reference to parking, leaving us to guess. The denial then cites several sections from Chapter 10‐10 of the RMC. Title X concerns Traffic on rights of way. Chapter 10‐10 concerns parking on the right of way. Nothing in Title X or in Chapter 10‐10 regulates parking on private property. Parking on driveways is addressed in Title IV. For example, the denial quotes section 10‐10‐13, which provides: “It shall be unlawful to park any commercially licensed or any vehicle over twelve thousand (12,000) pounds gross vehicle weight on any public right‐of‐way in which all of the adjacent structures are occupied as residential dwellings.” This is not an issue that has ever been in question, our clients are not seeking to park their vehicles in the public right of way. The denial next states that the use exceeds the 500 square foot limit because “the square footage of the garage alone is 500 square feet.” However, a “home occupation” is defined in 4‐9‐090(A) as a “commercial use conducted entirely within a dwelling or garage and carried on by persons residing in that dwelling unit which is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling as a residence.” This definition distinguishes between the “residence” and the “dwelling” and the “garage.” I also would point out that Section 4‐9‐090(F)(4)(m) states that “garages with adequate access may be used for home occupations; provided, that the property still complies with the parking requirements of the zone.” No size limit is imposed, and this provision clearly treats garages differently from the “residence.” Exhibit 7 2 Ordinarily, we would expect that an application like this would result in requests for information and some degree of discussion. The Code allows the Zoning Administrator to impose site‐specific conditions, and we would expect to see some kind of effort by the City to see if the application could be approved with appropriate conditions. We would expect some consideration of what other people in the area are doing, and what permits have been issued for them. We would expect an explanation for the decision rather than highlighted portions of the code that do not even apply to the application. None of that has occurred. Our client was told that his application would be denied the first time that he went to the City. We have reached out to the city at least four times in an effort to have a discussion about the application, and we have been ignored every time. It is clear that the City made a decision to deny this application before it was even filed for reasons that we can only speculate since the City will neither discuss the application nor explain its decision. Most importantly, we have repeatedly pointed out that the Code considers other home occupations in the area when granting a new application. Section 4‐9‐090(F)(2) states that a home occupation approval can consider “the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City‐approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity”. We sent the City many photographs of other properties in the immediate area (including neighboring properties) that plainly have ongoing uses that are indistinguishable from that of our clients. Some of the neighboring homes even had semi‐trucks parked in front of the house, which does actually violate the code sections regarding public right of way that were incorrectly cited against our client. Yet the prevailing use of commercial trucks in the neighborhood and all of our communications were ignored. It is very difficult to avoid the conclusion that the application was denied because of who and what our clients are, not what they asked to do. Why they are being singled out for different treatment is unknown, but something that can be determined. The City of Renton is headed for a lawsuit that does not have to happen. Our client has no interest in a fight with the City. They just want to be treated the same as their neighbors. If I have not heard from the City that it will reconsider its denial and issue a new decision on this application by the close of business on January 4, 2017, we will file the appeal and move forward on that basis.

They purchased their house to accommodate ample room for their small mattress business. The owners store about 20 mattresses in a detached garage on the premises. No sales take place on the premises, and the owners do not give their home address to clients. Inside the house the owners conduct bookkeeping and administration duties from a laptop computer. They store their mattresses in the garage and transport the products to Eastern Washington to sell. Due to the dimensions of a mattress, the owners must use trucks to transport the products to Eastern Washington. Because of this, they own two trucks which they park in the driveway in front of the detached garage. We understand the trucks are a concern. However, they are essential to transporting their mattresses. The owners are happy to work with the city to minimize the visual effect of the trucks; they are willing to remove any signage, repaint the trucks a neutral color, or plant trees to act as a screen. According to Renton Municipal Code 4-9-90 regulating home occupations, there appears to be no direct regulation of off-street parking. Section F(2) of the Code states that the standard for a decision is “the cumulative impacts of the proposed home occupation in relation to other City-approved home occupations in the immediate vicinity.” We kindly request that the city provide a list of nearby Home Occupation permits so that we can determine the prevailing standards. Currently in the neighborhood there are many homes that park commercial vehicles on their property. Houses in the neighborhood park taxis, commercial trucks, RVs, and cars in varying states of mechanical repairs in their driveway. It will be helpful to compare these neighboring residences with Alan Mattress. We look forward to finding a productive solution. Kind regards, Rocky White Attorney for Alan Mattress Outlet, LLC.
