Introduction The State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, Chapter 43.21C, RCW, requires
all state and local governmental agencies to consider environmental values both for their
own actions and when licensing private proposals . The Act also requires that an EIS be
prepared for all major actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment.
The purpose of this checklist is to help the agencies involved determine whether or not a
proposal is such a major action.
Please answer the following questions as completely as you can with the information
presen ly available to you. Where explanations of your answers are required, or, where
you believe an explanation would be helpful to government decision makers , include your
explanation in the space provided, or use additional pages if necessary. You should
include references to any reports or studies of which you are aware and which are rele-
vant tq the answers you provide. Complete answers to these questions now will help all
agencies involved with your proposal to undertake the required environmental review with-
out;uniecessary delay.
Thelfo lowing questions apply to your total proposal , not just to the license for which
you, ar currently applying or the proposal for which approval is sought. Your answers
should include the impacts which will be caused by your proposal when it is completed,
even though completion may not occur until sometime in the future. This will allow all
of thelagencies which will be involved to complete their environmental review, now, with-
out du licating paperwork in the future.
I
NOTE: This is a standard form being used by all state and local agencies in the State
rf
of Washington for various types of proposals. Many of the questions may not apply to
your proposal . If a question does not apply, just answer it "no" and continue on to the
next qestion.

Summary of Action:
Because public hearings on these amendments were held by the Planning Commission, pursuant to Section 2.12 of
the Shorelines Management Program on June 23, 1993 and July 14, 1993, request that Council authorize the City
Clerk to accept these amendments pursuant to Section 4-19-2 of the City's Building Regulations and WAC 173-19-060.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The planning/Building/Public Works Department, first, recommends that Section 3 - Shorelines of the City, be
amended to reflect the recommendation of the Department of Ecology that Springbrook Creek, south of SW Grady
Way to SW 43rd Street, be designated a Shoreline of the City based upon the state's determination in 1991 that,
because of an estimated annual flow of 20 cubic feet per second, this stream is now a Shoreline of the State. Those
portions otl the Creek that abut City-owned wetlands would be designated "Conservation Environment" and listed under
Section 5.03.03. This designation, in conjunction with the City's Wetlands Management Ordinance, would allow only
low intensity use such as trails and other passive recreation types uses in these areas. Those areas along Springbrook
Creek not designated "Conservation Environment" would be given an "Urban Environment" designation, which would
allow major new development to occur if it complied with all other provisions of the program as well as other relevant
codes and ordinances including the City's environmental, wetlands, and site plan review ordinances. Second, we
recommend that Section 9 - Definitions, be amended to change the definition of "Wetland or Wetlands Areas",
pursuant to WAC 90.58.030, to limit that portion of the one-hundred -year-flood plain included in the City's Shoreline
Master Program to the adjacent land extending two-hundred feet landward from the "ordinary high water mark". This
will make the SMP more consistent with the City's recently adopted Wetland Management Ordinance. This local
option, under the Shoreline Management Act, would modify the extent of floodplains that would otherwise be included
under the City's Shoreline Master Program. And finally, we are recommending that clarification be provided as to
where appeals of the Hearing Examiner's actions, under the program, go.

Subject: Amendments to Renton's Shoreline Master Program
IS UE:
In light of findings from the Department of Ecology that portions of Springbrook Creek south of SW
Grady Way are now considered to be Shorelines of the State and as such have not been given a specific
sh reline environmental designation, we are proposing to update our Shoreline Master Program to reflect
these changes. Since the inclusion of Springbrook Creek south of Grady Way in the Valley would affect
the extent of land that would come within the City's shorelines jurisdiction, because of the extent of
fio dplains and floodways in this part of the City, we are also recommending that the City amend its
de inition of wetlands or wetlands areas in the SMP allowed by local option in the Shoreline
M nagement Act (RCW 90.58.030(2)(f).
This proposed definition amendment would modify the extent of floodplain/floodways in the Valley that
would automatically come under the jurisdiction of the City's Shoreline Master Program. By exercising
thi local option, wetlands or wetland areas would be limited to the normal 200 foot wide shoreline zone
on either side of a stream or shoreline of the state, measured from the ordinary high waterll mark. In
addition to these changes, other minor amendments are proposed including: clarifying wording in the
definition of'Wetland/Wetland Areas pertaining to the point from which the 200 foot area is measured;
and, adding appeal language indicating that Hearing Examiner approvals are not appealable under
Renton City Code, but rather the final granting or denying of the shoreline permit is appealable to the
Shbrelines Hearings Board.
BACKGROUND:
In Vlarch 1991, the state Department of Ecology informed City staff that as a result of a meeting between
Boeing and DOE, they had re-analyzed the stream flow of Springbrook Creek and determined that a 20
cubic feet per second point flow rate for this water body existed as far south as SW 43rd Street. The City
was informed it would need to amend its Shoreline Master Program to reflect this change, but the change
would not have to occur immediately. (Shoreline programs are typically'reviewed and updated every
foir years under the provisions of the Act.) Rather, DOE explained that we could use the policies within
our existing program and apply these to new developments when they came in. The City has been doing
I thi
An issue was raised by the appeal of the Boeing Customer Service Training Center pertained to what
ar as of a site came within the jurisdiction of the City's Shoreline Master Program. Apparently, under
strict interpretation, Department of Ecology shorelines representatives have asserted that areas in the
Va ley that were depicted on the latest FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map as being within either the 100
memo
II
ye r Special Flood Hazard;..aas or Floodway Areas in Zone AE, come ..rider state shoreline jurisdiction
an need to comply with the provisions of our Shoreline Master Program. Because of the, extensive
ge graphy that would be affected in the Valley and the interim nature of the interpretations the City has
no:interpreted these areas as being within the purview of its Shoreline Master Program.
Staff believe that the City did not, in 1983, when its original shoreline ordinance was drafted; exercise the
ab ve mentioned "local option"to limit the extent of the 100 year floodplain that would be included under
its Program because large geographical areas were not affected at that time. The extension of
sh relines jurisdiction south of SW Grady Way to SW 43rd Street in the Valley, however, would now
brig a much more extensive amount of both developed and developable real estate ,under the
jurisdiction of the City's SMP. It would also indirectly bring these larger geographical areas under the
re I iew and authority of the DOE and the state's Shoreline Hearing Board. Whereas we want to protect
ou shorelines and other environmentally sensitive areas, we do not believe it was ever the City's intent
to include all areas within the Valley that are subject to one hundred (100) year flooding,1 under the
pr visions of the its Shoreline Master Program. 1
U der the state imposed designation of Springbrook Creek south to S.W. 43rd Street, these
flo dplains/floodways would incorporate a large portion of the Valley (see attached FEMA map), and
inadvertently, slow down and possibly inhibit new development contemplated in the City's iLand Use
Comprehensive Plan. Other City ordinances, such as those pertaining to surface water, SEPA,
environmentally sensitive areas, and wetlands preservation, adequately ensure environmentally sound
development. We therefore recommend that our current definition of "Wetlands or Wetlands Areas,"
citggd in the City's Shorelines Master Program be amended, pursuant to RCW 90.58.030, Definitions, to
lirrlit the extent of the 100 year floodplain included under the City shorelines jurisdiction to only that area
within the 200.foot mandatory shoreline zone.
We will also recommend clarifying an editing error that apparently has existed for a number'of years. To
be�consistent with the Act, our "Wetland or Wetlands Areas" definition should have the 200 foot
m asurement taken from the "ordinary," rather than the "mean" high-water mark. The, current
definition of WETLAND OR WETLANDS AREAS as defined in Section 9.44 of the 'City's, Shoreline
Master Program should therefore be amended, as shown below: .
9.44 WETLAND OR WETLANDS AREAS: Those lands extending landward for two
hundred (200) feet in all directions, as measured on a horizontal plane from the mean
ordinary high-water-line mark; floodways and contiguous floodplain areas landward two
hundred (200) feet from such ordinary high-water mark: and all marshes, bogs, swamps,
floodways; and river deltas,and loodpiains associated with the streams, lakes and tidal
waters which are subject to the provisions of the act.
Th- new extended portion of Springbrook Creek further south in the Green River Valley will;also have to
be given a shoreline environmental designation under the provisions of the Shoreline Management Act.
We are recommending that, except for the major, City-owned wetlands abutting Springbrook,Creek, an
"Urban Environment" designation be applied to all other portions of Springbrook Creek between SW
Gr dy Way and SW 43rd Street. The major City-owned wetlands abutting Springbrook Creek would be
gi en a "Conservation Environment" designation so as to be consistent with the Act and currently.
an icipated uses along them.
RECOMMENDATION:
Thel Planning/Building/Public Works Department recommends that the Council adopt the Planning
Coimmission's recommendation and authorize the City Clerk, pursuant to Section 4-19-2' of the city's
building Regulations, to accept and incorporate the following amendments to the City's Shoreline Master
Program (Ordinance No.3758):Thus, in summary, amendments under consideration include':
1. Amending Section 3 -- Shorelines of the City, to add that portion of Springbrook Creek between
SW Grady Way to the north, and SW 43rd Street to the south, to the list of"bodies of water regulated
by the Act", and amending Figure 3.1 to show this addition;
2. Designating this extension of Springbrook Creek "Urban Environment" except for,major City-
owned wetlands abutting it and also covered by these amendments, which will ;be given a
merro
"Conservancy Environs designation as shown on amended Fig,:_ 5-1, and amending Section
5.03.03 to list these City owned wetlands;
3. Amending the definition of"Wetland or Wetlands Areas" as defined in Section 9.44 of,the City's
Shoreline Master Program to limit that portion of the "one-hundred-year floodplain" to be included
under its master program to those lands extending for 200 feet in all directions from any designated
shoreline of the state, and clarifying that the point from which these measurements are made is the
ordinary high water mark rather than the mean high water line; and,
4. Clarifying that the appeal of any decision of the Hearing Examiner is to the Shoreline Hearing
Board. Section 1.03 of the City's Shoreline Master Program would be amended by adding the
following language (in bold)to paragraph four of this section:
Under the shoreline permit system herein established, administrative responsibility lies
jointly with the Building and Zoning Department and the Policy Development
Department, but the permits are reviewed in the event of dispute by the Land Use
Hearing Examiner, who has the authority to approve or deny permit applications. Liberal
provisions for appeal of permit decisions to the State of Washington Shorelines Hearings
Board are also provided. Any decision of the Renton Land Use Hearing Examiner
under the City's Shorelines Management Program shall be appealed, if an appeal
right exists, to the Shoreline Hearing Board.

DATE: August 19, 1988 D CITY'CLEM'S OFFICE
TO: Maxine Motor, City Clerk FROM: Donald K. Erickson, Zoning Administrator
RE: Correction to Shoreline Master Program
Recently it came to our attention that the revision for the
Landfill Section of the Shorelines Master Program approved
in 1985 has, not been incorporated into the master document
being used to print copies of the City's Shoreline Master
Program for sale to the public and for in-house use. Your
assistance is needed to ensure that the revision to this
master document is made together with amendment sheets to
the existing copies of the Master Program. The remainder of
this memo provides you with background information as well
as copies of pertinent documents on the revision adopted to
the Landfill Section of the City's Shoreline Master Program.
Our research of the matter shows that in 1984 the Department
of Ecology denied the wording for the section on landfills
in the City's Shoreline Master Program (See Attachment A) .
In 1985, an agenda bill was submitted to the City Council
with language to modify Section 7. 08 . 01 to comply with 'State
law (See Attachment B) . On JulY-15, 1985, the City Council
held a public hearing on the matter. The amendment was
approved and referred to the Ways and Means Committee for
the preparation of an ordinance (See Attachment C) . The
minutes of July 22, 1985 (See Attachment D) , show that an
ordinance was not prepared due to the fact that the City
attorney rioted that the "language of the Shoreline Master
Program allows for its modification without adoption of
amending legislation. " The new language for Section ,7 .1,08 . 01
reads as follows:
For detached single family residential uses, when the
property is located between two (2) existing bulkheads,
the property may be filled to the line of conformity

thirty-five (35) feet into the water , and provided the
provisions of Section 8. 02 . 02 through 8 . 02 . 05 are
satisfactorily met;
Following Council action, there appears not to have been any
follow-up to ensure the change was made in the Master
Program documents.

Dear Mr. Blaylock: '
tie Department of Ecology has completed its review of the city of Renton's
prop sed amendment to the Shoreline Master Program.
the mendment adds a Natural Environment designation to an area next to the
(id lack River channel; increases setbacks for commercial structures from: 25
feet to 50 feet; modifies landfill criteria for bulkheads for single family residential
use; allows marinas only if parking is provided; deletes sign regulations; prohibits
p',etroleum bulk storage and distribution; adds a new definition for "high rise" --
structures, local service utility), and major service utility; and changes the public
hearing procedures to institute the hearing examiner system.
i
Our review found the proposed amendment, with one exception, to be consistent
in4th the Shoreline Act and the state's guidelines for development and amendment
of master programs. We are pleased to approve those consistent portions.
,-, You proposal to modify Section 7.08.01 to permit laridfilling to the line of conformity
With an adjacent bulkhead on one side of a property instead of adjacent bulkheads
on a ch side of a property would provide opportunities_for additional encroachment
lineally along previously undeveloped shorelines. This is inconsistent with the
intent of WAC 173-16-060(11)(e) which provides that the construction of bulkheads
be pgrmitted only where they provide protection to upland areas and not for
•
the indirect purpose of creating land by filling behind the bulkhead.
light of this provislon,'the change from the criteria requiring two adjacent
bulkheads to that requiring only one is denied.
The IIapproved portion ;of the amended program will become effective.,3.Q.days

The City of Renton approved a revision to the Shorelines ]taster. Program in December,
•
j. 1983. The State reviewed the revision and accepted proposed changes with the
II exception of Section 7.08.01 on Landfills. The State's rejection of this section
resulted in the need for the City to amend the approved Shorelines Master. Program
with the language required by the State. The City Council decided on holding a
1;' public 'hearing to amend the Shoreline toaster Program as required by, the State. •

The lanning and Development Committee has referred to the City Council Section
7108.01 of the Shorelines Master Program relating to permit land fills for a public hearing.
for detached single family residential uses adjacent to one (1) existing
bulkhead,
II the property may be filled to the line of conformity provided the

provisions of Section 8.02.01 through 8.02.05 are satisfactorily met;
Unde>K` the Shorelines Management Act of 1971, RCW 90.58.190, the City of Renton
conducted a public hearing and adopted an ordinance to amend our Master Priogram in
1983. The State Department of Ecology has final approval under this section. They
conducted a separate public hearing on Tuesday, August 21, 1984, in the City Council
Chambers at 7:00 p.m. and took testimony. Their decision, based upon that testimony and
general policies of the Department of Ecology and the Goals and Policies for Lake
W'ashington, specifically rejected Section 7.08.01(A) relating to land fills.
i
The Revised Code of Washington does not include specific provisions to overrule the
Department of Ecology. The Department specifically stated that the proposed,revision of
the City of Renton's Shoreline Master Program was inconsistent with the intent of WAC
176-16-060(11)(e), which provides that the construction of bulkheads be permitted only
where they provide protection to upland areas and not for the direct purpose of creating
land by filling behind the bulkhead.

SUBJECT: First City Equities - DOE and Shorelines Master Plan
City staff including Larry Springer, Don Erickson and myself, met with Terra Prodan
and Mary Berg of DOE's Shorelines Division on November 13th to discuss the shorelines
issues for the First City Equities' property. The content of the meeting is memorialized
in a letter from Larry and Ron Nelson to Joe Williams dated November 30, 1987, a copy
of which was circulated last week to all members of the Black River Task Force.
In follow-up staff discussions on the November 13th meeting, several informational
items were identified as being needed so that the City could determine an appropriate
course of action. (Larry Warren's memo of 11/30) This information included the extent
of the SCS filling which occurred pursuant to the permit issued in 1981.
The attached map indicates the areas filled by SCS and the areas identified as "natural"
by the City's April interpretation of the Shoreline Master Program and the
Williams/Canning study.

The acreages of the areas of interest are as follows:
"Natural" Area 20.3 acres
Preservation/Restoration 20.6 acres
area as identified by the
DOE overlays
Preserve 7.7 acres
Shoreline 3.5 acres
Rookery 600' 5.2 acres

E area 1.4 acres
50' buffer 5.1 acres
SCS filled area 2.4 acres
including .2 acres in
the Shoreline identified
above
The following acreage figures are also of interest:
The acreage proposed to be developed under the site plan which accompanied
First Cities' latest proposal was 41.24 acres. This included 15.31 acres east of the
proposed Naches Ave. and 25.93 acres west of the road. The road itself encompasses 4.7
acres.
The developable acreage under the overlay system proposed by DOE would
include 39.38 acres including the area of the currently designated Naches Ave. The 50
foot buffer area would eliminate a further 5.1 acres. The total developable acreage
would therefore be 34.28 acres.

RE: First City Equities - DOE and Shorelines Master Plan,
This Memorandum is to memorialize discussions held on this topic
on November 20 , 1987. It is also to establish a plan to pursue
to enable us to make some further decisions on this matter .
DOE believes that First City Equities has filled certain property
that was to be preserved as wetlands under the City' s Shorelines
Master Program. DOE has given the City a bottom line proposal
for rehabilitation of certain of the wetlands properties and
preservation of certain other lands so that the total protected
wetlands will remain the same.
f
While looking at various photographs and drawings , it became
cllear that DOE was making an assumption as to the extent of the
Black River Riparian Forest and its associated wetlands . That
assumption may or may not be correct. Additionally, DOE was
assuming that certain other fill was placed on the site by First
Clity Equities when there is a likelihood that the Soil
Conservation Service placed some of the fill on the project.
Several things were to be reviewed so that we could determine, if
we can, exactly what the City' s intentions were and who had done
what to the site. They are as follows:

1 . The extent of the SCS filling is to be determined . The
�
n� aerial photograph showed a section to the northwest of the
site just up from the island that apparently was filled by •
SCS. Policy Development was going to make this
determination and calculate the acreage of the fill , if it
was done by SCS.
`2 The Counc meeting tapes were to be reviewed to determine
) what theil Council thought was going to be in the natural
zone. The Council decisions, when read together with the
Shorelines Master Plan, Section 5.02. 02 would seem to
require that the City obtain a dedication of all land in the
natural zone for flood protection, whenever there was
development in the area. A review of the platting file for •
this area shows that the City did obtain the dedication for
flood control purposes . However , it was felt that the
Williams study showed a much more extensive Black River
, Riparian Forest that was to remain natural . The City
Council' s intention needs to be determined from the Council
Minutes, if that is possible. Build '�ng and Zoning w.as going •
II to assume that task . �.% ,/�F/ � �t/�ti��� f-��1A : .!;,,
KO
At the same time as it reviews the Counci tapes, Building
and Zoning was going to try and determine what document was
approved , focusing on the Williams study and what was sent
to the Department of Ecology and why. We need to determine
how official the, Williams study is and for what purpose it
was made an official document.
' After these answers have been determined , if possible, then we
need to meet again before responding to DOE' s request. Until we
( have finalized our discussions with DOE it will be impossible to
tell First City Equities what they need to do.

PROJECT MEMORANDUM
TO: Barbara Moss, First City Equities
FROM: David Morency, Entranco Engineers, Inc.
RE: Shorelines Jurisdiction for the Black River Technology Park
DATE: April 13, 1987 _
city of Renton Wetlands Study (1981) is the underlying basis for
designating the Black River Riparian Forest as a wetland. Field
observations and mapping of wetland units were conducted by Doug Canning of
'Northwest Environmental Consultants in the fall of 1980. Mr. Canning is
currently employed by the Department of Ecology..
'Since the entire issue of shoreline jurisdiction may be based upon this.
study, it would seem very appropriate to consider the validity of the
(wetland determinations made as a result of this study. First, I think
it is relevant to_ note that this wetland survey was not a: detailed,
site-specific survey but rather a reconnaissance-level: survey.. This fact
was pointed out twice in the document. On page 1, paragraph 5, 'the
following statement is found:
"The level of detail , however, was limited because of time and
funding constraints. :. Field work was conducted' during November
and December 1980, which was not the most ideal period for
observing vegetation and wildlife."
I
On page 5, the last paragraph, the following qualification is given:
"This wetland study examines twelve important wetlands within the
City ,of Renton. Recause of time and funding constraints, this
investigation was conducted at a reconnaissance study level of
detail . Field work was completed during November and December
1980. Therefore, detailed wildlife inventories, vegetation .
• sampling, and soil and water analyses were not possible."
1
It is interesting to note that this study does not include a description of
;the soils of the site that were available at the time the study was• •
conducted. Yet the presence of at least periodically saturated soils is
indicated as an important criteria by which wetlands are determined.
jpa�ge 1, paragraph 3).
•
Page 6, paragraph 3 indicates that four kinds of wetland classifications
were utilized in the study, as follows:
. 1, emergent. wetlands (E), .
2. scrub-shrub wetlands (S) ,
3. forested wetlands (F), and
4. transitional (T). •
I is important to note that transitional areas were defined by the author
as areas where "soil , water and vegetation conditions did not clearly
" indicate a wetland or an upland". It is readily apparent from Figure, 3 of
tie report that the majority of the BRTP property was classified as •
forested wetland and that relatively small portions were classified as
emergent or scrub-shrub wetland areas. This is particularly significant in
vm9ew of the following statement recorded in the author's field notes
•
( ppendix 1, page 20):
"In general , I regard the Black River riparian grove as a.
wetlands transition habitat, dotted with a variety of wetland
types that are seasonally inundated." (Underline added for
emphasis. )
; on the basis of the author's field observations:, and notes,„ he'
considered' the forest area as a transition zone.: that was:. only. ""dotted" with,
wetland, types, why was it not so classified om Figure- 3? Although the.
author found the Black River Riparian Forest to: be a unique and valuable
hlhitat area, in large part due to its association with. the P-1 channel , it
is not so obvious that he was able to make a clear determination that the
forested area .was a true. wetland. Perhaps a more detailed wetland survey
would. result in a different interpretation.
It is extremely relevant to First City Equities and the City of Renton1that-
another site-specific wetland determination was made by the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers in the fall of 1985 by Rudy Pojtinger and Mike Bowlus. • It is
elctremely relevant because they did not identify the riparian forest , as a
wetland. The Corps of Engineers' determination was based upon site-
specific evaluations of three criteria including vegetation, soils and
hydrology. Site-specific soil test pits were dug to determine the presence
of indicators of saturated soil conditions. The Corps of Engineers survey
identified only those wetland areas that corresponded to the emergent and
scrub-shrub wetland areas of the City of Renton Wetland Study (1981).
(Refer to the enclosed figure from the Corps file report. ) Their file
report dated December 10, 1985 makes a clear distinction between riparian
forest and interior wetland habitats even in their introductory description
of the site. On page 5, the second to last paragraph, the authors make the
following statement:
s
•
The project area wetlands are not part of a surface tributary
system to waters. of the United States as they are separated from
the Black River by a minimum of 200 lineal feet of. non-wetland
(riparian forest)." (Underline added for emphasis.)
•
I have discussed .this information with Rex Van Wormer of Independent
Ecological Services. Rex . is a well-known wetland ecologist and he
" ge erally agrees that the riparian forest should not be classified as
Htland
h habitat. He has indicated that the majority of plant species in
te riparian forest are facultative plants that may be found in areas
outside of wetland habitats. •
Particularly on the basis of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers survey, I
would recommend that you do not concede to any definition of wetlands that
includes the riparian forest. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers survey was
an unbiased, independent determination conducted by reliable wetland
ecologists from a federal agency. Their survey was more detailed and ,more
'specific than the 1981 wetland, survey, and should therefore be considered
as more reliable and more accurate.

RE: Shoreline Designation
BLACKRIVER CORPORATE PARK
Dear Doh:
I am writing' in regard to the Renton Shoreline Master Program
designation for the Black River Technology Park property.
The Department of Ecology (DOE) is presently preparing a written
determination on the extent of associated wetlands on the
property. This determination will identify the portion of the
Black River Technology Park property, which in the opinion of
DOE, requires a substantial development permit in order to
proceed with any development on the site. Mr. Joe Williams
indicated to me in a telephone conversation we had on April 9,
1987 , that he believes that DOE' s determination on wetland
boundaries does not preclude development.
Joe Williams further indicated that the clarification of the
boundary between the Urban and._ Natural shoreline designation in
the Renton Shoreline Master Program must be made by the City of
Renton., This clarification must be substantiated by the City
with ,documentation based on the historical record.
It is the purpose of this letter to address this issue and to
providelto the City of Renton First City Equities ' understanding
of the historical record as it relates to the boundary between
the Urban and Natural shoreline designation on the Black River
Technology Park property.

SUMMARY !
II
First, it is clear that, to the extent that there are Natural
shorelines on the property, all property designated as Natural
is on the north bank of the Black River "west of its confluence
with Springbrook Creek. " (Section 5.02. 03) The Renton Master
Program applies to "shorelines. " "Shorelines" is defined to
include "associated wetlands. " (Section 9.34) Therefore,
inasmuch as the Natural designation only applies to "shorelines" •
west of ! the confluence, then, by definition, only "associated
wetlands" west of the confluence could be part of the Natural
designation.
Second, it is also clear that it was the City of Renton' s intent
in designating certain shorelines west of the confluence as
Natural only to include those shorelines dedicated to the City
of Renton. The History section below, discusses this in
detail. In summary, there are two main factors which support
this conclusion:
(1) In discussing the Natural designation, the Renton
Master Program states:
"The City of Renton recognizes that preservation
of Natural shoreline areas can only be assured
through public acquisition. Therefore, where
private development is proposed in areas
designated, the City shall require dedication as
necessary for flood storage. " (Section 5 . 02. 02)
This confirms that it was the City Council' s intent to
limit the Natural designation to shorelines which had
been dedicated, or which the City would require to be
dedicated as a condition of development.
( 2) The Natural designation basically prohibits any
development in the Natural shoreline. The Natural
designation in this area was adopted in 1983 . Yet, in
late 1984, after the designation was adopted by the
City Council, the City granted its approval to First
City Equities ' predecessor' s (Alterra Corporation)
Preliminary Plat for the property and grade and fill
permit. The approved preliminary plat provided for
full development of the property outside the areas
dedicated to the City. This is a clear indication that
the City considered the property, fully developable
except for the dedicated riparian forest and buffer

strip -- i.e. in the Urban designation; since the
; Natural designation would not have allowed the plat or
' the grade and fill permit.
HISTORY
1981 WETLANDS STUDY
In February, 1981 the City of Renton published a reconnaissance
study of selected wetlands in the City of Renton. The study was
conducted by the City of Renton Planning Department with the
assistance of Doug Canning of Northwest Environmental
Consultants. (I might point out that in the introduction to the
study'the very credibility of the study itself was questioned in
that "the level of detail, however, was limited because of time
and funding constraints. Fieldwork was conducted during
November' and December of 1980 which was not the most ideal
perioel for observing vegetation and wildlife. " ) Nevertheless,
this report ranked the existing City wetlands according to their
natural habitat value. "Based on this ranking and on knowledge
of feasible protective measures, recommendations for city action
were made. " (p. 1) .
The Study anticipates that future development will fill portions
of wetlands in the City:
"Although the East Side Watershed Project will preserve 110
acres of wetlands in the Green River Valley ( including the
Panther Creek Wetland) as mitigation for the project,
completion of this project will create conditions that allow
filling and draining of remaining wetlands. The necessity
for retaining existing wetlands for flood storage will be
removed. " (p. 4) .
A dislcuslsion of the then current policies and plans relating to
wetlandslcommences on page 14 of the wetland study. The
discussion outlines the history and intent for environmental
mitigation connected with the East Side Watershed Project and
clearly states that the Black River Riparian Forest was not
included in the mitigation plan. The areas of wetlands to be
preserved by the City of Renton and the Soil Conservation
Service included 20 acres of the Renton Wetland with an option
for 39 rqore acres including the portions of the Renton Wetland
and UnitI F of the East Valley Wetlands as well as the Panther
Creek wetland.

The rOport indicates that the Green River Valley Comprehensive
Plan adopted by the City of Renton in 1976, partially in
11
response to the environmental mitigation agreement for the East '
Side Watershed Project, designates most of the Valley within
RentOn as Manufacturing Park (p. 15) . It is this designation in
the Omprehensive plan which led eventually in 1982 to approval
by the City Council of a rezone request from General
Class!ification to Manufacturing Park for the entire Black River
Technology Park property.
The study clearly states that " of the wetlands identified in
H
this 'study, only a portion of the Black River Riparian
Fores . . .are within the jurisdiction of the Shoreline Master
Program." (p. 15) At that time, the shorelines were shown as
Urban'. 'That study further clarifies that the Shoreline Master
Program jurisdiction extends 200 feet into the Riparian Forest
bordering the Black River which was interpreted to be inclusive
Of the wetlands of the old Black River channel. (p. 15)
ALTERRA ACTIONS
The p'rev4ous owners of the Black River Technology Park property
were the Alterra Corporation whose president is Mr. Delton
Bonds'. In 1984 Mr. Bonds filed a Preliminary Plat (PP-089-84) ,
a Speipal Permit for grade and fill (SP-090-84 ) and a Variance
for a' cul-de-sac (V-091-84 ) . In 1980 the Alterra Corporation
requested a rezone of the property from General to Manufacturing '
Park designation. The City Council approved that rezone request ,
in Or4inance No. 3694 dated December 27, 1982. (R-129-80) A
letter dated July 16, 1982 to Mr. Bonds from the Environmental
Reviek Committee (copy enclosed) clearly states that the rezone
would!' be predicated upon dedication of 9. 14 acres for storm
drainage purposes and preservation in perpetuity by open space
easement of approximately 10 . 5 acres for "wildlife and natural
vegetation mitigation purposes" . It is clear from the very
start the intent of the City of Renton was to allow development
on the Black River Technology Park property exclusive of the
acres; preserved and/or dedicated for environmental mitigation
and flood control, purposes.

On December 29, 1982 an agreement was prepared (Recording No.
83010�50539) between the Renton Property Associates, JAG-Renton
Associates and the City of Renton. Alterra Corporation acted as
agent for RPA and JAG in that agreement. This agreement was
recorded on the condition that the property be rezoned to MP.
The agreement grants easements to the City of Renton for the
property outlined by the ERC as mitigation for the rezone. The
JAG agreement reiterates in paragraph after paragraph the intent
for the easement area to be used as greenbelt, open space,
wildlife habitat, and flood control purposes.
On page ' 3 , section 5 of the JAG Agreement, the previous owners
secured development credit for the property exclusive of the
greenbelt and flood control easement properties by crediting the
retained property with development rights which would have
accruuedhto the easement preservation areas. A limit was
specified of no more than 995,781. 5-gross square feet upon the
retained property. It is clear that the definition of retained
property is that land remaining once the greenbelt property and
flood control properties easements were granted to the City of
Renton. Those legal descriptions are included in this agreement
and tlieintent is clear, not requiring clarification .
SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM
In December of 1983, the City of Renton amended its Master
Program ; and designated the Black River "west of the confluence
with Springbrook Creek" as Natural. The City' s intent regarding
natural areas is clarified on page 20 of the Shoreline Master
Program, paragraph 5. 02. 02 in which is indicated that in order
• to preserve the natural areas of the shoreline, the City should
require .dedication of the properties as necessary for flood
storage. It is clear that dedication of the greenbelt easement
areas and flood storage easements by JAG Associates, was in
compliance with the intent of the City' s purpose to acquire
natur!alLareas.
PRELIMINARY PLAT (PP--089-84)
GRADE & ; FILL PERMIT (SP-090-84)
VARIAINCE (V-091-84
In 1984 ,Mr. Bonds filed a Preliminary Plat (PP-089-84) a Special
PermiIt for grade and fill (SP-090-84 ) and a Variance for a
cul-de-sac (V-091-84) .

On December 4, 1984 the Land Use Hearing Examiner issued an
approval for the special permit for fill and grade. This
special ',permit approval was issued along with approval of the
preliminary plat and approval of a variance to construct a
cul-de-sac on the property. Approval of these three actions was
predicated upon a specific site plan, which included a 46 lot
plat of ,approximately 71 acres. The Hearing Examiner' s decision
to approve the variance, special permit and preliminary plat is
enclosed. The findings clearly specify that all of the property
outside ;of the greenbelt preserve and flood control property,
ident“ied in the agreement between the City and JAG Associates
will be developed. It is interesting to note that the decision
includes a statement from the Zoning Administrator that the fill
plan will assure water quality in "natural areas south and
west.!' !(An Environmental Impact Statement was prepared for the
proposal. ) Enclosed is a copy of the grading and filling
drawings on which the! special permit for grade and fill was
approved. Clearly, those drawings specify full development of
all of the retained property outside of the easement areas.
As supplemental information, I am enclosing a copy of the
Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner dated November 20 ,
1984 regarding Alterra' s request for the approval of the
preliminary plat, special permit and variance. Specifically,
please note a copy of'lthe preliminary plat is included which
clearly !depicts full development of the property outside of the
easement areas. The 'staff comments included in the preliminary
report to the examiner shed light on the intent of the Policy
Development Department ( specifically Gene Williams, Associate
Planner) . In Gene' s memorandum dated October 15 , 1984, he
clearly :states that:
"approval of the Special Permit for fill and grade will
transform the Riparian Forest environment. Therefore, to
preserve the amenities of the site, the Special Permit
siould be conditioned to require no disturbance of the
dedicated greenbelt or restricted preserve areas and
maintenance of the tree preservation pockets detailed on the
plans. "
Clearly, the City of Renton' s staff intended full development of ,
the Black River Technology Park property to surround the
dedicated and preserved buffer easement areas and flood control
property. Further, the final Declaration of Non-Significance
(ECF094784) published! October 1, 1984 conditioned the DNS on
preservation of the designated greenbelts. Full development
surrounding those greenbelt areas was approved.

VALLEY REZONE
In 1985 the City of Renton City Council undertook a major rezone
of the Valley area inl which the Black River Technology Park
property was upgraded! from the zoning category of Manufacturing
Park to ;Office Park. At that time, the original recommendation
by Gene Williams, Policy Development Department staff member was
to zoiejthe easement ;greenbelt and flood storage areas P-1. The
retained property of Alterra Corporation was to be rezoned OP.
Clearly,: the staff' s intent (which was to implement direction of
the council) was to allow development of an office park on the
property outside of the easement areas . In December of 1985,
First City Equities purchased the property in the midst of the
Valley Rezone. At that time, I attended the City Council Public
Hearing on the rezone for the Valley plan, and requested in
testimony that the Council consider rezoning the entire property
to OP without designating the easement areas as P-1 lands, thus
allowing First City Equities the opportunity to review the
history of the easement areas and their current environmental
significance. Rezoning of the property occurred by City Council
action in 1986 and th'e entire property was zoned OP.
i
SCS P.-1 CHANNEL PHASE' I CONSTRUCTION
In June 1984, Phase I of the P-1 channel project commenced
construction. Specific areas for spoils placement of materials
coming out of the channel were identified and approved by the
City With right-of-entry agreements signed by the private
property owners to receive the material. The City acquired a
shoreline permit at that time to allow filling to occur within
the shoreline on Alterra' s property. Clearly, such a permit and
right-of-entry agreement would not have been issued had it not
been the intent of the City of Renton to see eventual
development occur on the land outside the easement areas.
CONCLUSION
In addition to the specific facts set set forth above, it is
important to point out that I have continually provided current
information regarding First City Equities ' intent to develop the
entire Blackriver Corporate property to the City Council, Mayor
Shinpbch and the relevant City department heads. At no time has'
anyone questioned our plans to develop the entire property
outside of the Riparian Forest and Easement Areas. In fact, a
moreitypical comment Was on whether we would actually follow
i �
I i
it
Mr. Donald Erickson 1
April 101, 1987
Page Eight
i
throu4h and develop a project of as high a caliber and quality
as that ',depicted in our master site plan concept. These
communications along with the regulatory and permit actions,
including SEPA documentation, clearly indicate that the City
consOered the property fully developable -- therefore, not in a
Natural ,shoreline. Rather, the Natural designation clearly was
intended to protect the very dedication and easements which had
been negotiated.
It It must te assumed that the City Council understood that the
Natural designation prohibits all development. We believe that
the examination of the historical record clarifies that it was
the City' s intent, when adopting the Natural de:dgnation, to
limit, its boundary to the Riparian Forest and Easement Area as
defin'edlin the legal descriptions of the JAG Agreement with the
City. This is also the only conclusion which is consistent with
the subsequent action's of the City on this property -- including
the 4ty' s approval of Alterra' s preliminary plat and grade and
fill permit, the ADMAC permits and First City Equities ' grade
and fill permit.
I hope rty recounting of the facts in this letter will serve to
assist the City in not only reaching their conclusion that the
Natural larea was intended to be defined as the dedication and
easemnnt areas only but also to support that finding. It would
appear that the record is clear and that no amendment of the
Master Program is neciessary.

PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted
Shoreline Master and published in accordance with State law, Mayor Shinpoch
Program I opened the public hearing to consider an amendment to the
Amendment Shoreline Master Program regarding landfills. Correspondence
was read from Building & Zoning Director Ron Nelson reporting
II that in August of 1984, the State Department of Ecology (DOE)
rejected a provision of the City' s Shoreline Master Program,
amended in 1983, relating to landfills (Section 7.08.01 (A)) ,I .
The City's section allowed property used for single
family residential dwellings and located adjacent to one
} bulkhead to be filled to the line of conformity with certain
provisions: that fill not exceed 125 feet along the water' s
edge and 35 feet into the water, and that provisions of
Section 8.02.01 through 8.02.05 are met. The DOE found this
section to be inconsistent with the intent of Washington
Administrative Code Section 176-16-060(11) (e) , which permits
construction of bulkheads only to protect upland areas and
not for the direct purpose of creating land by filling behind
' the bulkhead. This decision cannot be overruled by the City.
Therefore, the Building and Zoning Department recommended that
Section .7.08.01 (A) be changed to read as follows:
For detached single family residential uses, when
the property is located between two (2) existing
bulkheads, the property may be filled to the line
of conformity provided the fill does not exceed
one hundred twenty-five (125) feet in length along
the water's edge and thirty-five (.35) feet into the
water, and provided the provisions of Section
8.02.01 through 8.02.05 are satisfactorily met; . . .
Continued Zoning Administrator Roger Blaylock reiterated the purpose
of the public hearing as a housekeeping measure to bring
the City's Shoreline Master Program into conformity with
State law. Upon inquiry, Mr. Blaylock explained that
the City's Program complied with State law until the DOE
made its determination in 1984 regarding landfills.
Continue Versie Vaupel , P.O. Box 755, Renton, asked if the City
had issued any shoreline landfill permits from the time
of the determination by the DOE and the present. Mr.
! Blaylock reported no permits were issued. MOVED BY

SUBJECT: Shoreline Master Program/Revision/Deletion Section 7.08.01(A)
The Planning land Development Committee has referred to the City Council Section
7.08.01 of the Shorelines Master Program relating to permit land fills for a public hearing.
for ;detached single family residential uses adjacent to one (1) existing
bulkhead, the property may be filled to the line of conformity provided the
fill does not exceed one hundred and twenty-five (125) feet in length along
the yvatJer's edge and thirty-five (35) feet into the water and provided
provisions of Section 8.02.01 through 8.02.05 are satisfactorily met;
Under the :Shorelines Management Act of 1971, RCW 90.58.190, the City of Renton
conducted public hearing and adopted an ordinance to amend our Master Program in
1983. The' State Department of Ecology has final approval under this section. They
conducted a separate public hearing on Tuesday, August 21, 1984, in the City Council
Chambers et 7:i00 p.m. and took testimony. Their decision, based upon that testimony and
general policies of the Department of Ecology and the Goals and Policies for Lake
Washington,r specifically rejected Section 7.08.01(A) relating to land fills.
The Revised Code of Washington does not include specific
9 p provisions to overrule the
Department of Ecology. The Department specifically stated that the proposed revision of
the City of Renton's Shoreline Master Program was inconsistent with the intent of WAC
176-16-060(11)(e), which provides that the construction of bulkheads be permitted only
where they Ilprolvide protection to upland areas and not for the direct purpose of creating
land by filling blehind the bulkhead.

Continued of the vacation request would alleviate existing traffic
congestion in that area, eliminate illegal dumping of garbage

apartment buildings. -
Continued Phyllis LaRue (address above) questioned the depth dimension
of the vacation property. She advised that access to her
property to the east had been assured in 1972 by the State from
their right-of-way south a distance of 200 feet. Mr. Shane
indicated that he had no objection to provision of a full
width street on the northeast corner of Mrs. LaRue's property.
Continued Mr. Lee noted that the decision of the Board of Public Works 1
to deny the street vacation was based upon location of utility
lines, and the Board had not addressed the issue of future
access to abutting property owners.
Continued During Council discussion of the matter, the following
information was requested: emergency access requirements;
dimensions of the property requested for vacation; whether
the petitioner could be granted the entire parcel or only
one-half if the vacation is approved; whether or not limited
access could be achieved by fencing off aisles between
existing apartment buildings; underlying zoning of all
abutting properties; history of the zoning of the apartment
site and whether or not the looped roadway had been required
to assure access to buildings; status and location of
utilities in the area; whether or not there is a latecomer ,
agreement allowing utility connection by Mrs. LaRue; and
provision of an accurate site plan showing distances and
dimensions.
Continued Responding to one of the questions, City Attorney Warren
advised that only the City Council has the authority to
authorize the barricading of a public street. MOVED BY

Dear Mr. Blaylock:
The Department of Ecology has completed its review of the city of Renton's
proposed arisen:dment to the Shoreline Master Program.
The amendment adds a Natural Environment designation to an area next to the
old Black Rive1r channel; increases setbacks for commercial structures from 25
feet to 50 feet; modifies landfill criteria for bulkheads for single family residential •
use; allows marinas only if parking is provided; deletes sign regulations; prohibits
petroleum bulk storage and distribution; adds a new definition for "high rise"
structures, ;local service utility, and major service utility; and changes the public
hearing procedures to institute the hearing examiner system.
Our review:found the proposed amendment, with one exception, to be consistent
with the Shoreline Act and the state's guidelines for development and amendment
of master programs. We are pleased to approve those consistent portions.
Your proposal to modify Section 7.08.01 to permit landfilling to the line of conformity
with an adjacent bulkhead on one side of a property instead of adjacent bulkheads
on each side of a property would provide opportunities for additional encroachment
lineally along previously undeveloped shorelines. This is inconsistent with the
intent of WAC 173-16-060(11)(e) which provides that the construction of bulkheads
be permitted only where they provide protection to upland areas and not for
the indirect purpose of creating land by filling behind the bulkhead.
In light of Phis provision, the change from the criteria requiring two adjacent
bulkheads to that requiring only one is denied.
The approved portion of the amended program will become effective 30 days
from the date of filing with the state Code Reviser.

Master Program ; hearing on 10/25/82, and referral to Planning and Development
' Committee on 10/25/82, the Committee extensively studied the. I
J IMaster Program. The Planning and Development Committee report,
I reflects the consensus of the Committee members as follows: ,
Issue #1 : represents those sections of Shoreline regulations.
which the Committee unanimously recommends revisions of the
Planning Commission recommendation; Issue #2: represents sections
lof the regulations upon which the Committee could not agree and
can be characterized as the difference between the 1976
regulations which are more permissive and the Commission' s
recommendation which is more restrictive; and Issue #3:
; represents those sections upon which the Committee could not
agree. The Committee recommended approval of the Shoreline
Master Program as recommended by the Planning Commission and, as
amended by the Committee report, subject to Council review of
items contained in Issue #2 and Issue #3. (Planning and

November 7, 1983
OLD BUSINESS Mr. Hanken spoke in favor of the motion, supported control by
Planning and the local jurisdiction rather than the State, concurred in the
Development use of the word "should" rather than the word "shall" to allow
Committee greater flexibility in interpretation of provisions, and requested
continued that accessory uses, repairs and remodeling consistent with
existing operations be allowed in the setback area. City Attorney
Shoreline Warren explained intent of referenced verbs, "shall" implying
Master Pro 'ram mandatory requirement and "should" giving direction.
Continued Councilman Stredicke pointed out that both the minority and
majority reports recommend a 25-foot setback from the water' s
edge for industrial structures. Councilman Mathews noted the
word "permitted" had been inadvertently omitted from the first
line of the minority language of Section 3.c. , page 7.
Continued ( Andy Padvorac, Puget Sound Power and Light Company, Bellevue,
supported the Chairman's motion, requested uses accessory to
water-related industry be allowed in the setback area, and
suggested outright prohibition of power lines be changed to
allow review of each individual installation by the city
} (Section 3.f) . He presented slides designating location of
existing Puget Power transmission line easements near shorelines:
1 ) Cedar River, one mile east of 1-405; 2) north of 1-405 by
Springbrook Creek; 3) north of 1-405 by Green River; and 4) south
of 1-405 along East Valley Highway at Green River. Power lines
proposed for installation are planned in urban areas with minimal
vegetation or in conservancy areas where height of lines will
create little visual impact.
Continued Upon inquiry, Policy Development Director David Clemens explained
language of minority report would allow latitude for administrative
review of power line installations as requested by Mr. Padvorac;
language of the majority report would create need for variance
application for that use. He also corrected Sections 9.20 and
9.21 of the Master Plan to reflect consistency with city' s
underground ordinance in changing voltage requirements from 15 KV
to 55 KV. Councilman Reed suggested new power lines be allowed
in existing transmission corridors.
Continued Susan Ringwood, 16841 124th Avenue SE, Renton, representing
Renton Municipal League of Women Voters, supported choosing
language which best identifies and regulates areas of critical
concern. The major consideration of the Council should be that
the fragile shoreline in Renton is recognized as a unique and
valuable asset, and the mandatory language of the Master Program
should be adopted to ensure local control .
Continued j Dick Houghton, 3716 Lake Washington Boulevard S. , Bellevue,
owner of lakefront property at 3300 Lake Washington Boulevard S. ,
explained difficulties encountered in obtaining a fill permit
to extend property into the lake a distance of 85 feet to the
line of conformity on each side. He noted that while the majority
report on Issue 3.d. , page 8, reduces the bulkhead requirements
from two to one, filling is limited to 35 feet into the water. '
He requested Council consideration of his request to fill to the
line of conformity.
Continued I Councilman Stredicke opposed)minority reportr-language which irs'
directional in intent rather than mandatory, and leaves compliance
'to the discretion of the property owner. Councilman Hughes felt
that minority language offers the city certain flexibility and
opportunity to review attractive, quality development which may
otherwise be prohibited. Councilman Rockhill assured that the
minority language reflects the existing Shoreline Master Program
adopted in 1976 with "bugs" ironed out, and disagreed that the
60-page document is permissive. Councilman Clymer recalled voters
had approved the ballot measure in 1971 to retain local control
of shorelines in Renton and mandatory language of the majority
report would transfer control from the City to the State.
Councilman Stredicke disagreed that directional language would
ensure only quality development. Upon inquiry by Councilman
Clymer, Mr. Clemens reported his opinion that repairs or remodeling
to structures within the 25-foot setback would be acceptable under
proposed regulations. Councilman Clymer also questioned prohibitive

in which C-curbing has been removed without repercussions from
Rainier Avenue and Grady Way; therefore, he supported removal of

Houghton explained high costs preclude certain roadway modifications,
and the proposal which will be implemented, a short storage pocket
to accommodate left turn movements for westbound traffic into the
Highlands Lumber Co. facility, will allow access to all businesses
upon removal of barricades between parking areas. Costs for that
improvement are anticipated at under $5,000. MOTION CARRIED.

Shoreline Master This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and
Program Update published ,according to law, Mayor Pro-tem Clymer opened the public
hearing to consider update of the Shoreline Master Program. This
program, originally adopted in 1976, was created to_p_rovide_spe9ific_
development regulations for-1areas within 200 feet of Lake Washington;,
the Cedar and Green Rivers, and portions_of Springbrook and_.May'J";Cr-eeks.
Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, outlined the program changes,

Blay[ock_reported the Planning Commission Public Hearing had been
held`.6/09/82' and all Shoreline Committee meetings had been open to
the public with extensive periods of discussion held. Councilman
1 Stredicke noted he would have preferred more detailed comparison of
the proposed changes as they relate to the initial Shoreline Plan.
Corresponds ce A letter was read from Richard C. Houghton, 3716 Lake Washington
Blvd. SE, Bellevue, requesting reconsideration of existing regula-
tions regarding landfill of shoreline lots as they apply to pre-
existing platted lots.
Audience Comment Jocelyn Jones, 1424 North 40th Street, requested the southeast
shore of May Creek from 405 to Lake Washington Boulevard be included
in the Conservancy designation.
Versie Vaupel , 400 Cedar Avenue South, reported that the request
contained in the letter from Mr. Houghton had also been submitted
to the Shoreline Committee (while Mrs. Vaupel was a member). The
request was voted against there and not acted on at all by the
Planning Commission. Mrs. Vaupel noted the Department of Ecology
1 had indicated their disfavor with this type of proposal . Mrs. Vaupel
also indicated she had been present at the Planning Commission meeting
referred to by Mr. Reed prior to this public hearing and felt his
1 disqualification unnecessary.

PUBLIC HEARING continued
Audience Comment Peggy DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, questioned the
continued inclusion of view windows under "water-related" items. She also
questioned a statement made at the Planning Commission meeting
that, unless major alterations were being made to the Shoreline
Program, only one public hearing may be required. Mrs. DuBois
strongly supported public hearings being held before both the
Planning Commission and City Council , this being the only oppor-
tunity for public input. (See paragraph 5 below*.)
Councilman Stredicke requested clarification from Policy Development
Director Clemens as to why the May Creek area mentioned by Mrs .Jones
had not been designated as Conservancy or why part of May Creek had
not been designated Natural . Policy Development Director Clemens
responded that the Planning Commission and the Special Studies
Committee had concluded the westerly side of 1-405 would be more
extensively developed; thus, the Urban designation.
continued Jim Hanken, 1300 Seattle Tower, Seattle, attorney for Barbee Milll
Company, submitted a letter from David C. Crosby, 500 Maynard
Building, Seattle, attorney for Pan Abode, Inc. (and requested
addition to record). This letter, dated 9/13/82, was addressed
to Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, and requested the desig-
nation presently assigned to May Creek west of 1-405 remain Urban.
Mr. Hanken complimented the Planning Commission and staff on the
proposed Shoreline Master Program update presently before Council
and encouraged adoption.
Peggy DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, asked Council to
consider a compromise regarding the May Creek area: To designate
the Pan Abode/Barbee Mill side as Urban and the other side as
Conservancy. Versie Vaupel , 400 Cedar Avenue South, noted that
this is not a new problem; it had been considered by the original
Shoreline Committee.
Councilmen Rockhill and Stredicke questioned the building of single-
! family residences on pre-platted waterfront lots. Policy Develop-
ment Director Clemens indicated that, after allowing for front and
back yard setbacks, not enough land remained for building and that
any variance to the shoreline area would be granted by the State,
not the City of Renton. *Director Clemens also explained that the
Planning Commission had recommended that the requirement for two
public hearings on Shoreline Master Program changes be reduced to
one (to be held before the Planning Commission) . Councilman Stfredicke
spoke against this revision and it was found that the change had not
been incorporated into the proposal before Council .
There being no further audience comment, it was MOVED BY ROCKHILL,
SECONDED BY HUGHES, THE PUBLIC HEARING BE CLOSED. CARRIED. MOVED
BY ROCKHILL, SECONDED BY TRIMM, SUBJECT BE REFERRED TO THE PLANNING
AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE FOR STUDY AND RECOMMENDATION. CARRIED.
Planning and Development Committee Chairman Rockhill invited all
Council input regarding this matter and asked Council President
Clymer to meet with the Committee in place of Councilman Reed who
had disqualified himself. Council President Clymer agreed. Council-
man Reed returned to chambers at 8:53 p.m.
PUBLIC HARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and
Federal Revenue published according to law, Mayor Pro-tem Clymer opened the public
Sharing j hearing to consider the City' s proposed use of Federal Revenue
1 Sharing monies for the year 1983 and proposed (1) Re-appropriation

of I-40,5 rom Urban to Conservancy.
1
I heave reviewed the minutes of the June 9, 1982, public
hearingla which these proposals were made. The most comprehen-
sive prop sals were suggested by John DuBois. He suggests not
only chan ing the designation of May Creek, but also revising
several, other provisions of the Renton Shoreline Master Program
so as to prohibit multi-family and high-rise structures in this
area. For the reasons set forth below, Pan Abode strongly
opposes1the proposals put forth by Mr. DuBois and other area
residents relative to May Creek west of I-405.
The,! existing Pan Abode cedar home manufacturing complex has
been iniplace for approximately 20 years. It is situated on an
irregular 311,000 square foot parcel of land lying southeast of
the intersection of Lake Washington Boulevard North and N.E. 44th
Street. ' The southern boundary of the property lies at a distance
of approximately 35 to 50 feet from May Creek.
The property has at all times been zoned for heavy industrial
development. That portion of the property line within 200 feet
of May Creek was designated "Urban Environment" by the. Renton
Shoreline Master Program adopted in 1976. The land is presently
assessed by King County at $630,800. Pan Abode pays taxes in
1'

excessl'of $28,000 on its land and improvements. The property is
presently pledged as security for an $865,000 bank loan that pro-
vides a major source of Pan Abode 's operating capital.
I am enclosing a copy of a Substantial Development Permit
issued 'to Pan Abode on November 24, 1976, attached to which is a
site plan depicting the property. As can be seen from the site
plan, approximately one-third to one-quarter of the Pan Abode
property falls within the 200 foot zone affected by the Master
Program'. Portions of two existing structures lie within this
zone, and a proposed lumber storage building, for which the 1976
Substantial Development Permit was obtained, would lie entirely
within ',the zone. (Due to economic conditions, the proposed
storage' bailding was not erected, although Pan Abode did the pre-
liminary fork necessary to satisfy conditions numbered 1 and 2 of
the permit relating to storm drainage retention, oil/water
separation and landscape screening. Pan Abode has every inten-
tion ofl constructing this facility, and will apply for a new
Substantial Development Permit in the very near future. )
Whe!,n the Renton Shoreline Master Program was adopted in
March, 1976, it was intended to be "general, comprehensive and
long-range." Section 1 . 04 of the Master Program defines
"long-range" to mean "that the program is to be directed at least
twenty ( 20) to thirty ( 30) years into the future." The Master
Program, created two "environments" -- Conservancy and Urban. The
designation given to specific areas in 1976 was based , in part,
"on theexisting development pattern" at that time. Section
5.01.
Thel ConservancyEnvironment designation is designed to
"protect, conserve and manage existing areas with irreplaceable,
naturallor aesthetic features in essentially their native state
while providing for limited use of the area. " Section 5.02.01.
Areas selected for designation in 1976 had to satisfy at least
one of the six criteria set forth in Section 5.02.01(B) . Within
areas designated for conservancy, industrial uses are totally
prohibiited (Section 5.02.02(C) ) and residential uses are limited
to low-density single family residences. Section 5.02.02(E) .
The Urban Environment designation, on the other hand, was
reserved for existing areas of high-intensity land use, including •
residential, commercial., and industrial development. Section
5.03.01(B) .
'

Based on the criteria set forth in the Master Program, the
20-member citizen advisory committee in 1976 correctly recognized
that May creek west of I-405 was not appropriate for conservancy
designa�ltion. The Master Program expressly excludes this area
from the conservancy designation (Section 5.02.03 and Section
4 .02.02(F) ) and likewise exempts this area from low-density resi-
dential; goals. Section 4.07.02(H) .
l Iflanything, the area is less suitable for conservancy
designation today than it was in 1976. Id addition to the Pan
Abode plant, the Bar B Mill and the railroad tracks that were in
place i'n 1976, developers have recently completed a multiple-
structurel condominium complex in the area opposite Pan Abode,
south Of May Creek. Improper placement of a sewer main in the
area between May Creek and the Pan, Abode property line causes a
storm drain. emptying into May Creek near Lake Washington
Boulevard to back up and flood the Pan Abode property.
Changing the designation of May Creek west of I-405 to con-
servancy could have disastrous economic effects on Pan Abode,
already' h rd hit by the depression in the building industry. It
would immediately deprive Pan Abode of the only location for a
projected lumber storage building that has been planned since
1976. IThe proposal would render one-fourth to one-third of Pan
Abode'sj p operty unusable and reduce the economic value of the
entire arcel by hundreds of thousands of dollars, reducing the
security on Pan Abode's bank loan and possibly forcing Pan Abode
into default. In the long range, the staggering reduction in
property value will affect Pan Abode's ability to obtain future
f inanci'ng.
Pad Abode recognizes that May Creek is a valuable natural
resource. Indeed, Pan Abode cooperated with the City in
designing conditions to protect May Creek from any adverse
impacts caused by the construction proposed in 1976. In this
regard, we stress that a substantial portion of the Pan Abode
property remains within the 200 foot zone subject to the
Shoreline Management Act substantial development permit provi-
sions. ; Consequently, neither Pan Abode, nor any successor in
interesjt, could undertake any substantial development within this
zone without obtaining a Substantial Development Permit. This
requirement gives the City an opportunity to monitor development
of the Pan Abode property and to impose suitable conditions to
1

Page Fo,lur
protect May Creek. This is a much more sensible and flexible
approach to the problem than an outright prohibition on all
future development of the parcel .
To ,summarize, imposing the kinds of restrictions suggested by
Mr. DuBois and others on development of lands adjacent to May
Creek west of I-405 would be inconsistent with the long-range
goals and criteria established in 1976. These proposed changes
would have disastrous economic consequences for Pan Abode .
Moreover, since it is highly unlikely that May Creek west of Lake
Washington Boulevard would be suitable for conservancy designa-
tion in any event, the likely result would be to single out Pan
Abode for unfair, discriminatory, and confiscatory treatment.

Domain,, § 6.351111 at p. 6-109 .14 (rev. 3d ed. 1968 ) .
Thank you very much for allowing Pan Abode the opportunity to
• submit its comments in writing to the citizen proposals made at
the June 91, 1982, public hearing of the Renton Planning
Commission. I note that, although these suggestions were made
more than three months ago, Pan Abode was given less than two
weeks to submit its written comments . Accordingly, if the obser-
vations made in this letter are deemed insufficient to refute the
suggestions made at the June 9 , 1982, hearing, I respectfully
request, that Pan Abode be given an additional opportunity to
marshal; its arguments prior to the final recommendation of the
committee reviewing proposed revisions to the Shoreline Master
Program!

Subject: Shoreline Master Program
Dear Ma or Shinpoch and Council Members: CITY CLERK
We are :owners of 3 platted single family lots on Lake Washington, platted in
the ven early 1900's. As you are aware the Shoreline Master program of the
City regullates what can be done along the shorelands within the City limits.
During the recent review and update of the City' s program we asked if consid-
eration could be given to the area where our lots are located. The existing
Master Proram allows filling out 35 feet but only between existing bulkheads. ,
In our case, no bulkhead exists to the north precluding the filling of our
lots as others have done to the south.
The specific area lies adjacent to and south of Kennydale Beach. Although we
own only 3 lots, we have talked to other owners who are also interested in
developing their property.
We feel. we should not be denied the right to use our property and the Shore-
land Master Program should address the issue. At least set a policy in this
last remaihing area on the lakeshore which would allow limited development for
single family homes.
It is Painfully apparent that the existing regulations fail to take into
consideration the rights of owners of pre-existing platted lots. We believe
that reasolable development standardsshould be established for the few non-
conforming lots within the shoreline zone which are not currently developable
due to ,the prohibition of filling. We feel the Council can establish reason-
able limits to development of the lots which will insure our private property
rights without injuring the rights of others.
Very truly yours,

RE: SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM UPDATE
Dear Mayor and Council Members: •
On September 8, 1982, the Planning Commission recommended adoption of the
attached Iupdateto the Shoreline Master Program. This document was origi-
nally adopted in 1976 to provide specific development regulations for areas
within two hundred feet of Lake Washington, the Cedar and Green Rivers,
and portions of Springbrook and May Creeks.
The revisions incorporated into this document are primarily clarifications
of existing Master Program language and updating certain procedural elements.
In addition, the proposed revision will place a "natural environment" desig
nation on the northerly side of the Springbrook Creek/Black River Channels,
where they abut the existing Black River Reparian Forest. This area had
previously been designated in an "urban environment. "
It is recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing pursuant to '
the Shoreline Master Program on October 25, 1982, at 8:00 p.m. and at the
close of the public hearing, the Master Program be referred to the Planning
and Development Committee for report and final recommendation.

SECTION L INTRODUCTION
1.01 j BACKGROUND
For several years there has been growing concern among citizens, local
government and state government about the increasing pressures affecting the
utilization of the shorelines within the state. In general, shorelines are of limited
supply and are faced with rapidly increasing demands for such traditional uses as
ports,] fising, swimming and scenic views, as well as new demands for recreational
subdivisions, private housing, commercial and industrial uses. More people, higher
incomes, more leisure time, and general business growth have combined to create la
heavy, use of the shorelines.
In the fall of 1970, the Washington Environmental Council circulated an
initiative petition known as the Shorelines Protection Act, or Initiative 43, and
gathered enough signatures to certify it to the legislature meeting in 1971. Initiative
43 placed the primary responsibility for the planning and implementation of the Act
with Sta1Je government. The legislature then had the choice of accepting Initiative 43,
passing a substitute measure, or taking no action whatsoever. They chose the second
optio 9 a d enacted engrossed substitute House Bill #584, which was .called the
Shoreline Management Act of 1971, and it subsequently became Initiative 43BI .
Initiative 43B called for local control of planning and implementation of the Act.
In November of 1972, both measures were placed on the ballot, and the
States v ters selected the Shoreline Management Act.of 1971 (RCW 90.48). This Act
is based on the philosophy that the shorelines of our State are among our most
"valuable" and "fragile" natural resources and that unrestricted development of these
resource.1 is not in the best public interest. Therefore, planning and management are
necessary in order to prevent the harmful effects of uncoordinated and piece-meal
development of our State's shorelines.
-1-
,
02 REQUIREMENTS OF THE SHORELINE MANAGEMENT ACT ,
Under the Washington State Shoreline Management Act, local governments
ve the primary responsibility for initiating the planning program and administering
t I e regulatory requirements of the act, with the Department of Ecology acting in a
sl�pportive and review capacity. As set forth in the provisions of the Pct, local
vi vernments must fulfill the following basic requirements:
1. Administration of a shoreline permit system for proposed substantial
development on wetlands of designated water bodies.
2. Compilation of a comprehensive inventory which includes a survey of
natural characteristics, present land uses and patterns of ownership.
3. Development of a Master Program to provide an objective guide for
regulating the use of shorelines.
1.13 COMPLIANCE IN RENTON
The Washington State Shoreline Management Act of 1971 directs,all local
grvernments to develop a Master Program for the management of all shorelines and
a l ociated wetlands lying within the corporate limits. This Master Program has been
p pared to comply with the requirements of that Act and to formulateguidelines
wi ich will regulate the future utilization and development of the shorelines lying
w' hin the corporate limits of the city of Renton. Specifically, this Master Program
a ects the shorelines of Lake Washington, Cedar River, Green River, Black River,
Su ingbrook Creek and May Creek, and any other shoreline later coming under the
ju isdiction of the Act.
In compliance with the first requirement of the State Act, and a part of
t Is Master Program, the City of Renton is establishing a permit system, under which a
mit would have to be obtained for any substantial development proposed within
of I rementioned shorelines, within the city limits of Renton. Substantial development,
a ording to the law, means any development on which the fair market value exceeds
$1.000.00, or any development which would interfere with the normal public uses of
th water or shorelines. As part of that permit system, the following are considered
g:. eral exceptions to the permit requirement*:
-2-
I l
1. Normal maintenance or repair of existing structures. 1
2. Construction of the normal protective bulkhead common to single family
1
residences.
3. Emergency construction necessary to protect property from damage by
I1 the elements.
14. Construction of barns or similar agricultural buildings.
15. Construction or modification of navigational aids.
16.. Construction on wetlands by an owner, lessee or contract purchaser of a
single family residence for his own use or for the use of his family,
which residence does not exceed a height of thirty-five (35) feet above
average grade level.
17. Construction of a dock designed for pleasure craft only, for the
non-commercial use of the owner of a single family residence, the cost of
which does not exceed $2,500.00.
* (Applications for Exceptions must still be submitted to and approved by the
Building and Zoning Department.)
However, any development which occurs within the city's shoreline, as defined by the
Act, whether it requires a permit or not, must be consistent with the intent of the
State Ilaw.
Under the shoreline permit system herein established, administrative
responsibility lies jointly with the Building and Zoning Department and the Policly
Development Department, but the permits are reviewed in the event of dispute by the
Land 1 Use Hearing Examiner, who has the authority to approve or deny permit
applications. Liberal provisions for appeal of permit 'decisions to the State of
Washington Shorelines Hearings Board are also provided.
1
In compliance with the second requirement of. the Act, the Renton
Planning Department conducted a comprehensive inventory of the natural
chara terlistics, present land uses, and patterns of ownership along the City's shoreline.
The inventory was completed in October, 1972, and provided a substantial basis for ,the
development of this Master Program. The environments and specific use regulatior's
refleCt the local conditions,that are documented in that inventory.

In compliance with the third requirement of the Act, the City of Renton,
with the help of its local citizens, has developed a Shoreline Master Program to serve
ai a guide for regulating use of the City's shorelines. Included therein is a description
o' the goals, objectives, policies, environments, use regulations, and provisions for
v=riances and conditional uses, that were enacted as part of an overall plan which will
rl gulate the future utilization and development of the shorelines lying within the
cl rporate limits of the city of Renton.
1 .4 DEVELOPMENT OF THE MASTER PROGRAM
The Shoreline Management Act requires that Renton's Shoreline
jnagement Program serve as an objective guide for regulating use of the City's
s orelines. As defined by the Act, the Master Program is to be general,
comprehensive, and long-range (20-30 years) in order to be applicable to all of
•I-nton's shorelines. "General" means that the policies, proposals and guidelines are
nrt directed towards any specific sites. "Comprehensive" means that the Pi ogram is
dr ected toward all land and water uses, their impact on the environment and logical
eIItimates of future growth, and it also means that the Program shall recognize the
p ans and programs of other governmental units, and adjacent jurisdictions. "Long
r:nge" means that the Program is to be directed at least twenty (20) to thirty (30)
years into the future, look beyond immediate uses, and follow creative objectives
rther than a simple projection of current trends and conditions.
The basic intent of this Master Program is to provide for the management
of our City's shorelines by planning for and fostering all reasonable and appropriate
u es and to ensure, if development takes place, that it is done in a manner which will
plomote and enhance the best interests of the general public. This Master Program
h.•s further been formulated to protect the public interest and general welfare in the -
C ty's shorelines and, at the same time, to recognize and protect owners' legal
p i operty rights consistent with the public interest. The goals and policies of this
M:ster Program are formulated so as to enhance the public use and enjoyment of the
s relines so long as that public use is consistent with, and does not impair, legal
p r vate property rights. It is recognized that the shorelines of the city of Renton are
1•gated within a major urbanized area and that they are subject to ever increasing
-4-
r
pressures of additional uses necessitating increased coordination in the management
and development of the shorelines. An attempt has, therefore, been made to present a
planned, rational and concerted effort to increase coordinated and optimum utilization
of then shorelines of the city of Renton.
Additionally, this Master Program has also been formulated so as to
provide for uses of our shorelines in the following order of preference:
1. Recognize and protect the state-wide interest over local interest oh
II shorelines of state-wide significance.
2. Preserve the natural character of the shorelines.
3. Result in long-term over short-term benefits.
4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shorelines.
5. Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the shorelines.
6. Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shorelines.
7. Provide for any other element deemed appropriate or necessary.
It should also be noted that the Department of Ecology has designated
Lake Washington as a "region" for the purpose of shoreline planning. The Lake
Washington Regional Shoreline Goals and Policies adopted by the Regional Citizens
Advisory Committee on October 31, 1973, have been considered in the formulation of
this Master Program.
I I
This Master Program should be read in its entirety and be considered as la
whole. ..The goals and policies and specific uses of.this Master Program were developed
in an attempt to provide long-range planning which would govern the future utilization
and development of our shorelines. Although it is anticipated that this Master Program
• will need to be revised from time to time as additional shorelines are annexed and
become subject to the provisions of this Act, as planned unit developments are
established and as additional experience is gained working with this Act during iits
initial itinplementation period, it is felt that the general goals and policies of this
Master Program provide the general guidelines under which future utilization and
develop ent might occur. We feel confident that these final guidelines are expressive
of the concerns of the citizens of the city of Renton for the management of their
II
-5-
s orelines. This Master Program has been written with the spirit of optimism; with the
g P P ,
.pe that our legacy of natural grandeur in the city of Renton will be more wisely
ed in the brief period of time it is entrusted to us, so that succeeding generations
ight have it to enjoy.

SECTION 5, ENVIRONMENTS
JOI THREE ENVIRONMENTS
Three environments, Natural, Conservancy and Urban, shall be cesignated
to provide a uniform basis to apply policies and use regulations within dis' inctively
d ferent shoreline areas. The environmental designation to be given any spe ific area
s all be based on the existing development pattern, the biophysical capabilities and
lild itations of the area being considered for development and the goals and aspirations
ol� local citizenry. Shorelines have been categorized according to the natural
c.laracteristics and use regulations have been designated herein.
5 02 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
5.02.01 Designation of the Natural Environment
A. Objective: The objective in designating a natural environment is
to protect and preserve unique and fragile shoreline or wetland
environments in their natural state. The natural environment is
intended to provide areas of wildlife sanctuary and habitat
preservation.
B. Areas to be Designated as a Natural Environment:
(1) Areas that are unique or fragile.
(2) Floodways areas.
C. Acceptable Activities and Uses: The only human activity that is
acceptable is for floodway drainage or storage. All other human
activities including recreation are considered inappropriate.
5.02.02 Acquisition of Natural Areas: The City of Renton recognizes that
preservation of Natural Shoreline Areas can only be assured through
public acquisition. Therefore, where private development is proposed in
areas SQ 'designated, the City shall require dedication as necessary for
flood storage.
-28-
5.03 CONSERVANCY ENVIRONMENT
5.03.01 i Designation of the Conservancy Environment
A. Objective: The objective in designating a conservancy
environment is to protect, conserve, and manage existing areas
with irreplaceable natural or aesthetic features in essentially their
native state, while providing for limited use of the area. The
conservancy environment is intended to provide a pleasant break in
the surrounding urban community. This environment shall seek to
satisfy a portion of the present and future needs of Renton.
B. Areas to be Designated as a Conservancy Environment:
(1) Areas of high scenic value.
(2) Valuable areas for wildlife habitat.
(3) Hazardous slope areas.
(4) Flood-prone areas.
(5) Areas which cannot provide adequate utilities for intense
development.
(6) Areas with unique or fragile features.
C. Acceptable Activities and Uses: Activities and uses considered to
be acceptable in a conservancy environment are those of a
nonconsumptive nature which do not degrade the existing
character of the area. Uses that are to be predominant in a
conservancy environment are low density residential, passive
agricultural uses such as pasture or range lands, and passive
outdoor recreation.
5.03.02 Use Regulations in the Conservancy Environment
A. Commercial Uses: Commercial uses shall be limited to home
occupations, which shall be contained wholly within the dwelling
unit.
B. Fish and Game Reserve and Breeding Operations: Any such
activity shall be allowed only by the Land Use Hearing Examiner.

-30-
providing for public use, especially access to and along the water's
edge and by managing development so that it enhances and
maintains shorelines for a multiplicity of viable and necessary
urban uses.
B. High-intensity Land Use: The urban environment is an area of
high-intensity land-use including residential, commercial, and
industrial development. The environment does not necessarily
include all shorelines within an incorporated city as well as areas
planned to accommodate intensive urban expansion. On certain
shorelines planned for future urban expansion there should be
limitations based on the biophysical aspects of the site.
C. Water-dependent Activities: Because shorelines suitable for urban
uses are a limited resource, emphasis shall be given to',
development within already developed areas and particularly to
water-dependent industrial and commercial uses requiring frontage
on shorelines.

SECTION S. VARIANCES AND CONDTITONAL USES
8.01 VARIANCES AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS
The Renton Land Use Hearing Examiner shall have authority to grant
conditional use permits and variances in the administration of the Renton Master
Program. The power to grant variances and conditional use permits should be utilized
in a manner which, while protecting the environment, will assure that a 7rson will be
able to utilize his property in a fair and equitable manner. It shall be recognized that
a lawful use at the time the Master Program is adopted is to be considered a
permitted use, and maintenance and restoration shall not require a variance or a
conditional use permit. Both variances and conditional use permits are forwarded to
the Department of Ecology and the Attorney General's Office for approval or denial.
8.02 VARIANCES
Upon proper application, a substantial development permit may be
:ranted which is at variance with the criteria established in the Renton Master
'rogram where, owing to special conditions pertaining to the specific piece of
property, the literal interpretation and strict application of the criteria established in
II Renton Master Program would cause undue and unnecessary hardship or practical
uifficulties. The fact that the applicant might make a greater profit by using his
i+ operty in a manner contrary to the intent of the Master Program is not, by itself,
, fficient reason for a variance. The Land Use Hearing Examiner must find each of
t l e following:
8102.01 Exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applyi g to the
subject property, or to the intended use thereof, that do not apply
generally to other properties on shorelines in the same vicinity.
8.02.02 The variance permit is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant possessed by the o Iwners of
other properties on shorelines in the same vicinity.
I

I
-58-
� I
8.02.03 The variance permit will not be materially detrimental to the public
welfare or injurious to property on the shorelines in the same vicinity.
8.02.04 The variance granted will be in harmony with the general purpose and
intent of this Master Program.
8.02.05 JThe public welfare and interest will be preserved; if more harm will be
done to the area by granting the variance than would be done to the
applicant by denying it, the variance will be denied, but each property
owner shall be entitled to the reasonable use and development of his
lands as long as such use and development is in harmony with the general
purpose and intent of the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 and the
provisions of this Master Program.
I I
8.03 j j CONDITIONAL USE
•
I I
Upon proper application, a conditional use permit may be granted. The
objective of a conditional use provision is to provide more control and flexibility for
implementing the regulations of the Master Program. With provisions to control•
undesirableI effects, the scope of uses can be expanded to include many uses. Uses
classified ds conditional uses can be permitted only after consideration and by. meeting
such performance standards that make the use compatible with other permitted uses
within that area. A conditional use permit will be granted subject to each of the'
following conditions:
8.03.01 The use must be compatible with other permitted uses within that area.
8.03.02; The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines.
8.03.03' I Design of the site will be compatible with the surroundings and the City's
Master Program.
8.03.04 The use shall.be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the
City's Master Program.

SECTION L INTRODUCTION
1.01 BACKGROUND
For several years there has been growing concern among citizens, local
government and state government about the increasing pressures affecting the
utilization of the shorelines within the state. In general, shorelines are of limited
supple and are faced with rapidly increasing demands for such traditional uses as
ports,'. fishing, swimming and scenic views, as well as new demands for recreational
siibdivisi Ins, private housing, commercial and industrial uses. More people, higher
incomes, more leisure time, and general business growth have combined to create a
heavy use of the shorelines.
In the fall of 1970, the Washington Environmental Council circulated an
initiative petition known as the Shorelines Protection Act, or Initiative 43, and
gathered enough signatures to certify it to the legislature meeting in 1971. Initiative
43 placedd the primary responsibility for the planning and implementation of the Act
with 'State government. The legislature then had the choice of accepting Initiative 43,
passing substitute measure, or taking no action whatsoever. They chose the second
option and enacted engrossed substitute House Bill #584, which was called the
Shoreline Management Act of 1971, and it subsequently became Initiative 43B.
Initiativ 43B called for local control of planning and implementation of the Act.
In November of 1972, both measures were placed on the ballot, and the
State's voters selected the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 (RCW 90.48). This Act
is based on the philosophy that the shorelines of our State are among our most
"valuable" and "fragile" natural resources and that unrestricted development of these
resources is not in the best public interest. Therefore, planning and management are
necessary in order to prevent the harmful effects of uncoordinated and piece-meal
development of our State's shorelines.
-1-
1.02 REQUIREMENTS OF THE SHORELINE MANAGEMENT ACT
Under the Washington State Shoreline Management Act, local governments
have the primary responsibility for initiating the planning program and administering
the regulatory requirements of the act, with the Department of Ecology acting in
supportive and review capacity. As set forth in the provisions of the Act, local
governments must fulfill the following basic requirements:
1. Administration of a shoreline permit system for proposed substantial
development on wetlands of designated water bodies.
2. Compilation of a comprehensive inventory which includes a survey of
natural characteristics, present land uses and patterns of ownership.
3. Development of a Master Program to provide an objective guide for
regulating the use of shorelines.
1.03 COMPLIANCE IN RENTON
The Washington State Shoreline Management Act of 1971 directs all local
govern'nm-nts to develop a Master Program for the management of all shorelines I and
associated wetlands lying within the corporate limits. This Master Program has been
prepared to comply with the requirements of that Act and to formulate guidelinles
which will regulate the future utilization and development of the shorelines lying
with* the corporate limits of the city of Renton. Specifically, this Master Program
affects theI shorelines of Lake Washington, Cedar River, Green River, Black River,
Sprin'gbrbok Creek and May Creek, and any other shoreline later coming under the
jurisdiction of the Act.
In compliance with the first requirement of the State Act, and as part 'of
this Masser Program, the City of Renton is establishing a permit system, under which a
permit would have to be obtained for any substantial development proposed within
aforementioned shorelines, within the city limits of Renton. Substantial development,
according to the law, means any development on which the fair market value exceeds
$1,000.00, or any development which would interfere with the normal public uses ;of
the iwati r or shorelines. As part of that permit system, the following are considered
general iexceptions to the permit requirement*:
-2-
1. Normal maintenance or repair of existing structures.
2. Construction of the normal protective bulkhead common to single family
residences.
3. Emergency construction necessary to protect property from damage by
the elements.
4. Construction of barns or similar agricultural buildings.
5. Construction or modification of navigational aids.
16. Construction on wetlands by an owner, lessee or contract purchaser of la
single family residence for his own use or for the use of his family,
which residence does not exceed a height of thirty-five (35) feet above
average grade level.
7. Construction of a dock designed for pleasure craft only, for the
non-commercial use of the owner of a single family residence, the cost of
which does not exceed $2,500.00.
* (Applications for Exceptions must still be submitted to and approved by the
Building and Zoning Department.)
However, any development which occurs within the city's shoreline, as defined by the
Act, 'whether it requires a permit or not, must be consistent with the intent of the
State law.
Under the shoreline\ permit system herein established, administrative
responsibility lies jointly with the Building and Zoning Department and the Policy
Development Department, but the permits are reviewed in the event of dispute by the
Land Use Hearing Examiner, who has the authority to approve or deny permit
,i
applications. Liberal provisions for appeal of permit 'decisions to the State of
Washington Shorelines Hearings Board are also provided.
In compliance with the second requirement of the Act, the Renton
Planning Department conducted a comprehensive inventory of the natural
characteristics, present land uses, and patterns of ownership along the City's shoreline.
The inventory was completed in October, 1972, and provided a substantial basis for the
development of this Master Program. The environments and specific use regulations
reflect the local conditions that are documented in that inventory.

-3-
In compliance with the third requirement of the Act, the City of Renton,
with the help of its local citizens, has developed a Shoreline Master Program to serve
as a guide for regulating use of the City's shorelines. Included therein is a description
of the; go ls, objectives, policies, environments, use regulations, and provisions foilI
variances and conditional uses, that were enacted as part of an overall plan which will
regulate he future utilization and development of the shorelines lying within the
corporate limits of the city of Renton.
1.04 DEVELOPMENT OF THE MASTER PROGRAM
The Shoreline Management Act requires that Renton's Shoreline
Management Program serve as an objective guide for regulating use of the City's
shorelines. As defined by the Act, the Master Program is to be general,
comprehensive, and long-range (20-30 years) in order to be applicable to all of
Renton's shorelines. "General" means that the policies, proposals and guidelines arie
not direted towards any specific sites. "Comprehensive" means that the Program is
directed toward all land and water uses, their impact on the environment and logical
estimates of future growth, and it also means that the Program shall recognize the
plans and programs of other governmental units, and adjacent jurisdictions. "Long
range" means that the Program is to be directed at least twenty (20) to thirty (30)
years! into the future, look beyond immediate uses, and follow creative objectives
rather than a simple projection of current trends and conditions.
The basic intent of this Master Program is to provide for the management
of our City's shorelines by planning for and fostering all reasonable and appropriate
uses 'and to ensure, if development takes place, that it is done in a manner which will
promote and enhance the best interests of the general public. This Master Program
has further been formulated to protect the public interest and general welfare in the
City's shorelines and, at the same time, to recognize and protect owners' legal
property rights consistent with the public interest. The goals and policies of this
Master Program are formulated so as to enhance the public use and enjoyment of the
shorelines so long as that public use is consistent with, and does not impair, legal
priva1te property rights. It is recognized that the shorelines of the city of Renton are
located within a major urbanized area and that they are subject to ever increasing
-4-
I - -
pressures of additional uses necessitating increased coordination in the management
and development of the shorelines. An attempt has, therefore, been made to present
planned, rational and concerted effort to increase coordinated and optimum utilization
of the shorelines of the city of Renton.
Additionally, this Master Program has also been formulated so as to
provide for uses of our shorelines in the following order of preference:
1. Recognize and protect the state-wide interest over local interest; on
shorelines of state-wide significance.
2. Preserve the natural character of the shorelines.
3. Result in long-term over short-term benefits.
4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shorelines.
5. Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the shorelines.
' 6. Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shorelines.
, 7. Provide for any other element deemed appropriate or necessary.
It should also be noted that the Department of Ecology has designated
Lake Washington as a "region" for the purpose of shoreline planning. The Lake
Washington Regional Shoreline Goals and Policies adopted by the Regional Citizens
Advisory Committee on October 31, 1973, have been considered in the formulation of
this Master Program.
This Master Program should be read in its entirety and be considered as a
whole. The goals and policies and specific uses of.this Master Program were developed
in an attempt to provide long-range planning which would govern the future utilization
and development of our shorelines. Although it is anticipated that this Master Program
will kneed to be revised from time to time as additional shorelines are annexed and
become subject to the provisions of this Act, as planned unit developments are
established and as additional experience is gained working with this Act during its
initial implementation period, it is felt that the general goals and policies of this
Master Program provide the general guidelines under which future utilization and
development might occur. We feel confident that these final guidelines are expressive
of the concerns of the citizens of the city of Renton for the management of their
-5-
•
shorelines: This Master Program has been written with the spirit of optimism, with the
hope that our legacy of natural grandeur in the city of Renton will be more wisely
used in the brief period of time it is entrusted to us, so that succeeding generations
might have it to enjoy.

SECTION 5. ENVIRONMENTS
5.01 THREE ENVIRONMENTS
Three environments, Natural, Conservancy and Urban, shall be designated
to provide a uniform basis to apply policies and use regulations within distinctively
different shoreline areas. The environmental designation to be given any specific area
shall be based on the existing development pattern, the biophysical capabilities and
limitations of the area being considered for development and the goals and aspirations
of local citizenry. Shorelines have been categorized according to the natural
characteristics and use regulations have been,designated herein.
5.02 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
5.02.01 Designation of the Natural Environment
A. Objective: The objective in designating a natural environment is
to protect and preserve unique and fragile shoreline or wetland
environments in their natural state. The natural environment is
intended to provide areas of wildlife sanctuary and habitat
preservation.
B. Areas to be Designated as a Natural Environment:
(1) Areas that are unique or fragile.
(2) Floodways areas.
C. Acceptable Activities and Uses: The only human activity that is
acceptable is for floodway drainage or storage. All other human
activities including recreation are considered inappropriate.
5.02.02 Acquisition of Natural Areas: The City of Renton recognizes that
preservation of Natural Shoreline Areas can only be assured through
public acquisition. Therefore, where private development is proposed in
areas so designated, the City shall require dedication as necessary for
flood storage.
i I
-28-
5.02.03 Jurisdiction
That portion of the north bank of the Black River lying west of
its confluence with Springbrook Creek, shall be designated Natural
(see figure 5-1).
I i
I
I �
5.03 i CONSERVANCY ENVIRONMENT
5.03.01 Designation of the Conservancy Environment
A. Objective: The objective in designating a conservancy
environment is to protect, conserve, and manage existing areas
with irreplaceable natural or aesthetic features in essentially their
native state, while providing for limited use of the area. The
conservancy environment is intended to provide a pleasant break in
the surrounding urban community. This environment shall seek to
satisfy a portion of the present and future needs of Renton.
B. Areas to be Designated as a Conservancy Environment:
(1) Areas of high scenic value.
i (2) Valuable areas for wildlife habitat.
(3) Hazardous slope areas.
(4) Flood-prone areas.
(5) Areas which cannot provide adequate utilities for intense
development.
(6) Areas with unique or fragile features.
i C. Acceptable Activities and Uses: Activities and uses considered to
be acceptable in a conservancy environment are those of a
nonconsumptive nature which do not degrade the existing
character of the 'area. Uses that are to be predominant in
conservancy environment are low density residential, passive
agricultural uses such as pasture or range lands, and passive
outdoor recreation.
5.03.02 Use Regulations in the Conservancy Environment
A. Commercial Uses: Commercial uses shall be limited to home
ii occupations, which shall be contained wholly within the dwelling
i, unit.
B. Fish and Game Reserve and Breeding Operations: Any such
activity shall be allowed only by the Land Use Hearing Examiner.!
-29-

bank of the Cedar River, 2,500 feet east of FAI-405, shall be designated
conservancy (see figure 5-1).
5.04 URBAN ENVIRONMENT
5.04.01 Designation of the Urban Environment
' I
A. Objective: The objective of the urban environment is to ensure
optimum utilization of shorelines within urbanized areas by
-30-
i I
providing for public use, especially access to and along the water's
edge and by managing development so that it enhances and
maintains shorelines for a multiplicity of viable and necessary
urban uses.
B. High-intensity Land Use: The urban environment is an area of
high-intensity land-use including residential, commercial, and
industrial development. The environment does not necessarily
include all shorelines within an incorporated city as well as areas
planned to accommodate intensive urban expansion. On certain
shorelines planned for future urban expansion there should be
limitations based on the biophysical aspects of the site.
C. Water-dependent Activities: Because shorelines suitable for urban
uses are a limited resource, emphasis shall be given to
development within already developed areas and particularly to
water-dependent industrial and commercial uses requiring frontage
on shorelines.
D. Public Access: In this Master Program, priority is also given to
planning for public visual and physical access to water in th;e
urban environment. Identifying needs and planning for the
acquisition of urban land for permanent public access to the water
in the urban environment shall be accomplished through the Master
Program. To enhance waterfront and ensure maximum public use,
industrial and commercial facilities shall be redesigned to permit
pedestrian waterfront activities. Where practicable, various access
points ought to be linked to non-motorized transportation routes,
such as bicycle and hiking paths.
5.04.02 Use Regulations in the Urban Environment

SECTION L VARIANCES AND CONDITIONAL. USES
8.01 VARIANCES AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS
The Renton Land Use Hearing Examiner shall have authority to grant
conditional use permits and variances in the administration of the Renton Master
Program. The power to grant variances and conditional use permits should be utilized
in a manner which, while protecting the environment, will assure that a person will be
able t h utilize his property in a fair and equitable manner. It shall be recognized that
a lawful Muse at the time the Master Program is adopted is to be considered a
permitted use, and maintenance and restoration shall not require a variance or a
conditional use permit. Both variances and conditional use permits are forwarded to
the Department of Ecology and the Attorney General's Office for approval or denial.
8.02 VARIANCES
Upon proper application, a substantial development permit may be
granted which is at variance with the criteria established in the Renton Master
Program where, owing to special conditions pertaining to the specific piece of]
property, the literal interpretation and strict application of the criteria established in
the Renton Master Program would cause undue and unnecessary hardship or practical
difficul'lties. The fact that the-applicant might make a greater profit by using his
property in a manner contrary to the intent of the Master Program is not, by itself;
sufficient reason for a variance. The Land Use Hearing Examiner must find each of
the following:
8.02.01!I Exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applying to the
subject property, or to the intended use thereof, that do not apply
generally to other properties on shorelines in the same vicinity.
14 I
8.02.02: The variance permit is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant possessed by the owners of
other propertie's on shorelines in the same vicinity.
� I
I I
i ! I
-58-
li
8.02.03 The variance' permit will not be materially detrimental to the public
� I
welfare or injurious to property on the shorelines in the same vicinity.
8.02.04 The variancegranted will be in harmonywith the general purpose and
�
intent of this Master Program.
8.02.05 The public welfare and interest will be preserved; if more harm will be
done to the area by granting the variance than would be done to the
applicant by denying it, the variance will be denied, but each property
'II owner shall be entitled to the reasonable use and development of his
lands as long as such use and development is in harmony with the general
purpose and intent of the Shoreline Management Act of 1971 and the
'
provisions of this Master Program.
8.03 , CONDITIONAL USE
•
it
Upon proper application, a conditional use permit may be granted. The
objective of a conditional use provision is to provide more control and flexibility for
implerneni'ting the regulations of the Master Program. With provisions to control
undesirable effects, the scope of uses can be expanded to include many uses. Uses
I
classified as conditional uses can be permitted only after consideration and by meeting
such 'performance standards that make the use compatible with other permitted uses
within that area. A conditional use permit will be granted subject to each of the
follovF ing conditions:
8.03.0,11 The use must be compatible with other permitted uses within that area.
8.03.02 The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines.
8.03.03 Design of the site will be compatible with the surroundings and the City's
Master Program.
8.03.04 The use shall be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the
City's Master Program.

RE: SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM UPDATE
•
Dear Mayoir and Council Members:
II On September 8, 1982, the Planning Commission recommended adoption. of the
attached update to the Shoreline Master Program. This document was origi-
nallyiladopted in 1976 to provide specific development regulations for areas
within tWo hundred feet of Lake Washington, the Cedar and Green Rivers,
and portions of Springbrook and May Creeks.
The revisions incorporated into this document are primarily clarifications
of existing Master Program language and updating certain procedural elements.,
In additilon, the proposed' revision will place a "natural environment" desig-
nation onl the northerly side of the Springbrook Creek/Black River Channels,
. where „they abut the existing Black River Reparian Forest. This area had
previously been designated in an "urban environment. "
It isl'recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing pursuant to
the Slorelline Master Program on October 25, 1982, at 8:00 p.m. and at the
closeiof the public hearing, the Master Program be referred to the Planning
and Development Committee for report and final recommendation.

PUBLIC HEARING Councilman Reed noted he had spoken before the Planning Commission
regarding the definition portion of the Shoreline Master Program
and to avoid possible claims of pre-judgment or possible future
litigation, he disqualified himself from the following public
hearing and left Council Chambers.
Shore! nE•' Master This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and
ProgP iJ ( pdali;® e published according to law, Mayor Pro-tem Clymer opened the public
4 hearing to consider update of the Shoreline Master Program. This
program, originally adopted in 1976, was created to provide specific
development regulations for areas within 200 feet of Lake Washington,
the Cedar and Green Rivers, and portions of Springbrook and May Creeks.
Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, outlined the program changes,
noting the five main areas of revision: 1 ) Fees; 2) High rises;
3) State establishment of our separate shorelines: Natural , Con-
servancy, Rural and Urban; 4) Marinas; and 5) Public Access.
Blaylock reported the Planning Commission Public Hearing had been
held 6/09/82 and all Shoreline Committee meetings had been open to
the public with extensive periods of discussion held. Councilman
Stredicke noted he would have preferred more detailed comparison of
the proposed changes as they relate to the initial Shoreline Plan.
Correspondence A letter was read from Richard C. Houghton, 3716 Lake Washington
Blvd. SE, Bellevue, requesting reconsideration of existing regula-
tions regarding landfill of shoreline lots as they apply to pre-
existing platted lots.
Audience Comment Jocelyn Jones, 1424 North 40th Street, requested the southeast
shore of May Creek from 405 to Lake Washington Boulevard be included
in the Conservancy designation.
Versie Vaupel , 400 Cedar Avenue South, reported that the request
contained in the letter from Mr. Houghton had also been submitted
to the Shoreline Committee (while Mrs. Vaupel was a member) . The
request was voted against there and not acted on at all by the
Planning Commission. Mrs. Vaupel noted the Department of Ecology
had indicated their disfavor with this type of proposal . Mrs. Vaupel
also indicated she had been present at the Planning Commission meeting
referred to by Mr. Reed prior to this public hearing and felt his
disqualification unnecessary.

PUBLIC HEARING continued
Audience Comment, Peggy DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, questioned the
continued ' inclusion of view windows under "water-related" items. She also
questioned a statement made at the Planning Commission meeting
that, unless major alterations were being made to the Shoreline
Program, only one public hearing may be required. Mrs. DuBois
strongly supported public hearings being held before both the
Planning Commission and City Council , this being the only oppor-
tunity for public input. (See paragraph 5 below-`. )
Councilman Stredicke requested clarification from Policy Development
Director Clemens as to why the May Creek area mentioned by Mrs. Jones
had not been designated as Conservancy or why part of May Creek had
not been designated Natural . Policy Development Director Clemens
responded that the Planning Commission and the Special Studies
Committee had concluded the westerly side of 1-405 would be more
extensively developed; thus, the Urban designation.
continued I Jim Hanken, 1300 Seattle Tower, Seattle, attorney for Barbee Mill
Company, submitted a letter from David C. Crosby, 500 Maynard
Building, Seattle, attorney for Pan Abode, Inc. (and requested
addition to record) . This letter, dated 9/13/82, was addressed
to Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, and requested the desig-
nation presently assigned to May Creek west of 1-405 remain Urban.
Mr. Hanken complimented the Planning Commission and staff on the
proposed Shoreline Master Program update presently before Council
and encouraged adoption.
Peggy DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, asked Council to
consider a compromise regarding the May Creek area: To designate
the Pan Abode/Barbee Mill side as Urban and the other side as
Conservancy. Versie Vaupel , 400 Cedar Avenue South, noted that
this is not a new problem; it had been considered by the original
Shoreline Committee.
Councilmen Rockhill and Stredicke questioned the building of single-
family residences on pre-platted waterfront lots. Policy Develop-
ment Director Clemens indicated that, after allowing for front and
back yard setbacks, not enough land remained for building and that
any variance to the shoreline area would be granted by the State,
not the City of Renton. `Director Clemens also explained that the
Planning Commission had recommended that the requirement for two
public hearings on Shoreline Master Program changes be reduced to
one (to be held before the Planning Commission) . Councilman Stredicke
spoke against this revision and it was found that the change had not
been incorporated into the proposal before Council .
There being no further audience comment, it was MOVED BY ROCKHILL,
SECONDED BY HUGHES, THE PUBLIC HEARING BE CLOSED. CARRIED. MOVED
BY ROCKHILL, SECONDED BY TRIMM, SUBJECT BE REFERRED TO THE PLANNING
AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE FOR STUDY AND RECOMMENDATION. CARRIED.
Planning and Development Committee Chairman Rockhill invited all
Council input regarding this matter and asked Council President
Clymer to meet with the Committee in place of Councilman Reed who
had disqualified himself. Council President Clymer agreed. Council-
man Reed returned to chambers at 8:53 p.m.
PUBLIC HEARING This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and
Federal Revenue published according to law, Mayor Pro-tem Clymer opened the public
Sharing ' hearing to consider the City' s proposed use of Federal Revenue
' Sharing monies for the year 1983 and proposed (1 ) Re-appropriation
of $98,030 Federal Revenue Sharing Funds committed in 1982 for

Re: Pan Abode Comments to May Creek Conservancy Proposals
Dear Mr. Blaylock:
John Hubbard, President of Pan Abode, Inc. , has asked me to
respond to your letter of September 3, 1982, soliciting comments
on citizen proposals to change the designation of May Creek west
of I-405 from Urban to Conservancy.
I have reviewed the minutes of the June 9, 1982, public
hearing at which these proposals were made. The most comprehen-
sive proposals were suggested by John DuBois. He suggests not
only changing the designation of May Creek, but also revising
several other provisions of the Renton Shoreline Master Program
so as to prohibit multi-family and high-rise structures in this
area. For the reasons set forth below, Pan Abode strongly
oppose's the proposals put forth by Mr. DuBois and other area
residents relative to May Creek west of I-405.
The existing Pan Abode cedar home manufacturing complex has
been in place for approximately 20 years . It is situated on an
irregular 311,000 square foot parcel of land lying southeast of
the intersection of Lake Washington Boulevard North and N.E. 44th,
Street. ' The southern boundary of the property lies at a distance
of approximately 35 to 50 feet from May Creek.
The property has at all times been zoned for heavy industrial
development. That portion of the property line within 200 feet
of May Creek was designated "Urban Environment" by the Renton
Shoreline Master Program adopted in 1976. The land is presently
assessed by King County at $630,800. Pan Abode pays taxes in
it
Roger J. Blaylock

Page Two
excess of $28,000 on its land and improvements . The property is
presently pledged as security for an $865,000 bank loan that pro-
vides almajor source of Pan Abode 's operating capital.
I am enclosing a copy of a Substantial Development Permit
issued to Pan Abode on November 24, 1976, attached to which is a
site plan depicting the property. As can be seen from the site
plan, approximately one-third to one-quarter of the Pan Abode
property falls within the 200 foot zone affected by the Master
Program, Portions of two existing structures lie within this
zone, and a proposed lumber storage building, for which the 1976
Substantial Development . Permit was obtained , would lie entirely
within the zone. (Due to economic conditions, the proposed
storage building was not erected, although Pan Abode did the pre-
liminary work necessary to satisfy conditions numbered 1 and 2 of
the permit relating to storm drainage retention, oil/water
separation and landscape screening. Pan Abode has every inten-
tion of [ constructing this facility, and will apply for a new
Substantial Development Permit in the very near future. )
When the Renton Shoreline Master Program was adopted in
March, 1976, it was intended to be "general, comprehensive and
long-range. " Section 1.04 of the Master Program defines
"long-rangle" to mean "that the program is to be directed at least
twenty ( 20) to thirty ( 30) years into the future." The Master
Programcreated two "environments" -- Conservancy and Urban. The
designation given to specific areas in 1976 was based , in part,
"on the existing development pattern" at that time. Section
5.01. 1
The' Conservancy Environment designation is designed to
"protect, (conserve and manage existing areas with irreplaceable,
naturalJoi aesthetic features in essential-Ty their native state
while proviiding for limited use of the area." Section 5.02.01.
Areas selected for designation in 1976 had to satisfy at least
one of the six criteria set forth in Section 5.02.01(B) . Within
areas designated for conservancy, industrial uses are totally
prohibited (Section 5.02.02(C) ) and residential uses are limited
to low-density single family residences. Section 5.02.02(E) .
The Urban Environment designation, on the other hand, was
reserved for existing areas of high-intensity land use, including
residential, commercial, and industrial development. Section
5.03.01j(B) .

Based on the criteria set forth in the Master Program, the
20-member citizen advisory committee in 1976 correctly recognized
that May Creek west of I-405 was not appropriate for conservancy
designation. The Master Program expressly excludes this area
from th;e conservancy designation ( Section 5. 02.03 and Section
4 .02.02i(F) ) and likewise exempts this area from low-density resi-
dential goals. Section 4. 07.02(H) .
If anything, the area is less suitable for conservancy
designation today than it was in 1976. In addition to the Pan
Abode plant, the Bar B Mill and the railroad tracks that were in
place in 1976, developers have recently completed a multiple-
structuire6 condominium complex in the area opposite Pan Abode,
south of May Creek. Improper placement of a sewer main in the
area between May Creek and the Pan Abode property line causes a
storm drain emptying into May Creek near Lake Washington
Boulevard to back up and flood the Pan Abode property.
Changing the designation of May Creek west of I-405 to con-
servancy would have disastrous economic effects on Pan Abode,
already hard hit by the depression in the building industry. It
would immediately deprive Pan Abode of the only location for a
projected lumber storage building that has been planned since
1976. The proposal would render one-fourth to one-third of Pan
Abode' s! property unusable and reduce the economic value of the
entire 'parcel by hundreds of thousands of dollars, reducing the
security on Pan Abode's! bank loan and possibly forcing Pan Abode
into defalt. In the long range, the staggering reduction in
property value will affect Pan Abode's ability to obtain future
financing.
Pan' Abode recognizes that May Creek is a valuable natural
resource. , Indeed, Pan Abode cooperated with the City in
designing conditions to protect May Creek from any adverse
impacts; caused by the construction proposed in 1976. In this
regard,, we stress that a substantial portion of the Pan Abode
property remains within the 200 foot zone subject to the
Shoreli'nelManagement Act substantial development permit provi-
sions. Consequently, neither Pan Abode, nor any successor in
interest, could undertake any substantial development within this
zone without obtaining �a Substantial Development Permit. This
requirement gives the City an opportunity to monitor development
of the Pan Abode property and to impose suitable conditions to
1

protect'JMay Creek. This is a much more sensible and flexible
approach to the problem than an outright prohibition on all
futureldevelopment of the parcel .
I I
Tolsummarize, imposing the kinds of restrictions suggested by
Mr. DuBlois and others on development of lands adjacent to May
Creek west of I-405 would be inconsistent with the long-range
a.goals ndlcriteria established in 1976. These proposed changes
would have disastrous economic consequences for Pan Abode.
Moreover, Isince it is highly unlikely that May Creek west of Lake
Washinglton Boulevard would be suitable for conservancy designa-
tion in; any event, the likely result would be to single out Pan
Abode for unfair, discriminatory, and confiscatory treatment.

Thanklyou very much for allowing Pan Abode the opportunity to
submit its comments in writing to the citizen proposals made at
the June 9, 1982, public hearing of the Renton Planning
Commission. I note that, although these suggestions were made
more thanI three months ago, Pan Abode was given less than two
weeks to submit its written comments. Accordingly, if the obser-
vations made in this letter are deemed insufficient to refute the
suggestions made at the June 9, 1982, hearing, I respectfully
request that Pan Abode be given an additional opportunity to
marshal its arguments prior to the final recommendation of the
committee! reviewing proposed revisions to the Shoreline Master
Program.

On September 8,! 1982, the Planning Commission recommended adoption of the attached

Subject: Shoreline Master Program
Dear Mayor Shinpoch and Council Members: CITY CLERK
We are owners of 3 platted single family lots on Lake Washington, platted in
the very early 1900's. As you are aware the Shoreline Master program of the
City regulates what can be done along the shorelands within the City limits.
During the recent review and update of the City's program we asked if consid-
eration could be given to the area where our lots are located. The existing
Master Program allows filling out 35 feet but only between existing bulkheads.
In our case, no bulkhead exists to the north precluding the filling of our
lots as others have done to the south.
The specific area lies adjacent to and south of Kennydale Beach. Although we
own only ;3 lots, we have talked to other owners who are also interested in
developing their property.
We feel we should not be denied the right to use our property and the Shore-
land Master Program should address the issue. At least set a policy in this
last remaining area on the lakeshore which would allow limited development for
single family homes.
It is' painfully apparent that the existing regulations fail to take into
consideration the rights of owners of pre-existing platted lots. We believe
that reasonable development standardsshould be established for the few non-
confo'rming lots within the shoreline zone which are not currently developable
due to the prohibition of filling. We feel the Council can establish reason-
able :limits to development of the lots which will insure our private property
rights without injuring the rights of others.
Very truly yours,
CO •

Dear Mayor and Council Members:
On September 8, 1982, the Planning Commission recommended adoption of the
attached lupdate to the Shoreline Master Program. This document was origi-
nally ;iadopted in 1976 to provide specific development regulations for areas
within two hundred feet of Lake Washington, the Cedar and Green Rivers,
and portions of Springbrook and May Creeks.
The revisions incorporated into this document are primarily clarifications
of existing Master Program language and updating certain procedural elements;.
In addition, the proposed revision will place a "natural environment" desig-
nation on the northerly side of the Springbrook Creek/Black River Channels,
where;ithy abut the existing Black River Reparian Forest. This area had
previously been designated in an "urban environment. "

It is recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing pursuant to
the Shoreline Master Program on October 25, 1982, at 8:00 p.m. and at the
closeilofIthe public hearing, the Master Program be referred to the Planning ;

issues.�l Iissue #1 represents those sections of the Shoreline regulations which)
the Committee unanimously recommends revisions of the Planning Commission
recommendaton. Issue #2 represents sections of the regulations upon which the'
Committee could not agree and can be characterize as the difference between
the 1976 regulations which are more permissive and the Commission's
ir
recommendation which is more restrictive. Lastly, Issue #3 are sections where

5. CITY OF RENTON SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM
Noting that the public hearing had been held in June and the matter referred back to
the Shoreline Master Program Committee, the Chairman requested a report from the com-
mittee chairwoman.
Commissioner Vaupel noted committee membership and advised that it is the committee's
recommendation that the proposed revision dated September 1, 1982, be approved and
submitted to the Council for adoption.
A detailed discussion was requested of Mr. Blaylock, committee advisor. He indica-
ted that all comments received at the public hearing had been reviewed and con-
sidered : n the revised edition. It was also noted that the City strictly observes
the StatE 's 200 foot from the shoreline limitation, and these regulations do not
apply to that area behind the 200 feet. There were several primary areas of con-
cern: high rises, wetlands, and the designation of certain shorelines - May Creek
and the Elack River Forest area near the P-1 Channel. These concerns were ad-
dressed as follows: (1) high rises-The committee did not provide a specific defini-
tion but chose to leave it to be indicated in the Fire and Building Codes. Mr.
Blaylock especially noted that high rises are prohibited within 200 feet of the
shoreline; and, as indicated earlier, there is no requirement within the Program
for the property behind it. (2) wetlands - The matter has been addressed in the
proposed Program and State law in that any associated wetlands would fall within
the jurisdiction of the Shorelines Act. A new category, Natural Environment, has
been added to the Program to protect such areas. It was explained that the intent
is to preserve the area in a natural condition, precluding human use. (3) the
designation of certain shorelines - With specific reference to the area along
May Creek, Mr. Blaylock reported that the committee had deferred a final decision
because of potential impact to another property owner, Panabode, which has been
given until September 15th for comment. Potential impacts to existing businesses
in the vicinity were also noted. The final recommendation will be held in abey-
ance until a response is received.
Further changes were noted: the addition of an environment designated as "natural, "
revisions to setbacks in residential, commercial and industrial areas to provide
more public access, and the possibility of additional shoreline areas along the
Cedar River to the east. Procedure for adoption and enforcement provisions were
also explained.

For clarification, Commissioner Vaupel advised that the majority of the committee
members felt that they did not have the right to define high rise for the City,
as it should be a City policy and that a declaration of non-significance had 'been
published.!
Questions !from the Commission were then invited. Responding to Commissioner Walker,
Mr. Blaylock indicated that the committee felt it appropriate to reserve a decision
concerning the area along May Creek for a response from Panabode, inasmuch as writ-
ten
inputlhad already been considered from the Barbee Mill Company, and these
comments should be made available to the Council. However, the Commission may
approve the document this evening. (See Addendum. )
There wasjdiscussion concerning the requirement for an additional public hearing
by the City Council in accordance with Section 2.12, Amendments. It was suggested
that the sentence reading, "The Planning Commission shall make a recommendation to
the City Council, which shall hold at least one (1) public hearing before making a
determination." be changed to read: "The Planning Commission shall make a recom-
mendation,to the City Council, which may hold at least one (1) public hearing
before making a determination." Considerable discussion ensued in which it was
noted that changing "shall" to "may" would make the procedure consistent with the
adoption of other City Zoning Ordinance amendments and, while it would be appro-
priate for the Commission to recommend the change, the Council will have to conduct
a public hearing in accordance with existing requirements.
As there was no further discussion, IT WAS
ACTION:
MOVED BY VAUPEL, SECONDED BY HOUSER, THAT WE ADOPT THE PROPOSED SHORELINE MASTER
PROGRAM AS SUBMITTED.
An amendment was offered, as follows:
ACTION:
MOVED BY WALKER, SECONDED BY SCHELLERT, THAT THE FIFTH LINE OF SECTION 2.12, AMEND-
MENTS,, CONCERNING THE CITY COUNCILS HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING BE REVISED FROM
"WHICH SHALL HOLD AT LEAST ONE (1) PUBLIC HEARING" TO "WHICH MAY HOLD AT LEAST ONE
(1) PUBLIC HEARING."
Discussion followed. Commissioner Vaupel expressed her feeling that the City
Council, ;as a representative of the people, should hold at least one public
hearing concerning the mandated review of the Master Program every four years.
As there was no further discussion, the Chairman called for the vote as follows:
On the amendment - MOTION CARRIED, Commissioner Vaupel dissenting.
On the original motion to adopt - MOTION CARRIED.
The Committee was then commended for their work.
There was 'discussion concerning the order of the agenda, and IT WAS
ACTION:
MOVED BY WALKER, SECONDED BY HOUSER, THAT AGENDA ITEM #6, REGARDING THE CENTRAL RENTON
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, BE CONSIDERED AFTER ITEM #8, AUDIENCE COMMENT, AND THAT THE COM-
MISSION PROCEED TO ITEM #7, ADMINISTRATIVE. MOTION CARRIED.

The Planning Association of Washington will hold its fall conference at Fort
Worden, Port Townsend, September 29 - October 1. Commissioner Schellert will
be attending as a representative of the PAW Board and will provide a report.
D. PAW FALL CONFERENCE - 1983
Mr. Clemens referred the Commissioners to a letter from the City of Tukwila
in which they are advised that the Tukwila Planning Commission has indicated
interest in the invitation to participate in sponsorship of the PAW 1983 Fall
Conference. However, they will consider it further at their meeting of Sep-
tember 23rd. He advised that the matter has also been discussed with Planning
Directors in Kent, Tukwila and Auburn; and an opportunity for further discus-
sion may be presented at a meeting of the directors on September 14th. The
Renton City Council has agreed that, if the Commission wishes to take on the
responsibility of sponsoring this conference, they may do so. Mr. Clemens
expressed his concerns, however, regarding staff time and budget constraints
but offered all possible assistance.
Discussion followed among the Commissioners relative to providing Commissioner
Schellert with a letter to the Planning Association of Washington to be pre-
sented at the Port Townsend conference concerning Renton's sponsorship. As
the Commission will not meet again until after the conference, IT WAS

FIRMATION BY THE REST OF THE COMMISSION BY TELEPHONE OR OTHER MEANS THAT IT
IS, APPROPRIATE TO PROCEED. MOTION CARRIED.
8. AUDIENCE COMMENT:
Audience comment was invited by the Chairman.
Peggi DuBois, 2907 Mountain View North, Renton, in regard to the Shoreline Master
Program, expressed her concerns relative to the Commission's decisions involving
the May Creek area. She inquired specifically regarding decisions concerning
existing businesses in that vicinity and high rises in shoreline areas.
In response, Mr. Blaylock noted restrictions governing existing business within
two hundred feet of the shoreline would limit further development and additional
constraints imposed by State jurisdiction. Mr. Clemens indicated his agreement
with decisions made by the committee in this regard.
Mrs. DuBois indicated further her feeling that more than three environmental
classifications be considered in Renton and that the waterfront park and resi-
dential areas be more restrictive.

Jocelyn Jones, 1424 North 40th Street, Renton, questioned the adequacy of provisions
for protection of May Creek in the area of Panabode. She was advised that the •ques-
tion had been considered at length by the committee and that the guidelines for the
Program have been provided by the State. The urban designation along 900 of Ren-
ton's shorelines was also noted as being in keeping with State guidelines for high
usage areas.
Mrs. DuBois indicated her opinion that Kennydale should be designated as a conserv-
ancy due to its scenic value and wildlife and also noted her concern about a public
hearing at the Council level.
There was further discussion regarding the review process and State's appeal proce-
dures.
Discussion followed regarding the possibility of a recess and reassembly as the Central

Mr. Warren continued with a discussion of conflict of interest, providing examples
of potential problems, and then offered to respond to questions. Questions and
answers were presented concerning comment by Commission members at Council meetings
with regard to matters previously acted upon by the Commission, requests by Coun-
cil members of Commissioners for information, minority reports by Commissioners,
involvement of Commissioners' family members in a public hearing, politicking by
Commissioners, Commission members supporting an action of another applicant being

6. ADMINISTRATIVE:
A. COMMITTEE REPORTS
(1) ORDINANCE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
Commissioner Walker reported that review is continuing concerning business
zoning. In an effort to obtain input from the business community, con-
tacts have been made with the Chamber of Commerce and Renton Merchants
Association inviting them to a meeting tentatively scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ,
August 3rd. Three business zones are being contemplated: the central
business zone, community commercial zone and neighborhood commercial
zone.
(2) SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM COMMITTEE
Responding for the committee, Mr. Blaylock advised that they had met since
the public hearing and resolved most of the issues. However, they plan
to defer their report until the September 8th meeting to allow time to
formulate definitions for greenbelt and high rise. Mr. Clemens noted
receipt of the following correspondence since the public hearing: letters
dated June 16 and June 28, 1982, from James C. Hanken of Lenihan, Ivers
and McAteer, attorneys, 1218 Third Ave. , Seattle, dealing with the Barbee
Mill site; a letter from Gloria Minnick, 11215 S.E. 74th St. , Renton,
dated June 22, 1982, regarding a number of issues, in particular density
and height limitations; an undated letter from the Open Space Coalition
of South King County, signed by Sylvia Langdon, Temporary Chairperson,
312 S.W. Langston Rd. , Renton, dealing with wetlands, specifically the
Black River Riparian Forest, creek wetlands and wetlands on East Renton
Hill; and a letter dated July 3, 1982, from William H. Marr, 910 No. 36th
St. , Renton, relating to the various zone designations in the Shoreline
Master Program, height restrictions, location of highways, and preserva-
tion of wetlands. It was noted that copies had been provided to all
Commission members, including the committee.
(3) CENTRAL AREA STUDY COMMITTEE
Mr. Clemens indicated that the committee had met twice during the previous
month. At the first meeting they reviewed North Renton and developed a
number of preliminary findings. The second meeting was devoted to the
South Renton area; however, no conclusions were reached in view of limited
attendance. The next committee meeting date was tentatively scheduled for
August 4th.
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designations
A memorandum from Associate Planner Williams regarding Comprehensive Plan
land use designations was distributed to the Commissioners. It was noted
that as a result of some comments received on the draft environmental
impact statement for the Central Area Plan, it seemed appropriate to
more precisely define the land use categories of the Comprehensive Plan
and the intent is to include these in the final environmental impact
statement so they can be adopted by the Commission. Also distributed
was a draft of a greenbelt policy for Commission consideration which
responds to the Commission's discussion about greenbelts on steep slopes
in the Central Area. Explanations of the proposals were provided by Mr.
Williams, who then responded to questions from the members.

5. PUBLIC HEARING:
A REVIEW AND UPDATE OF THE CITY OF RENTON SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM
AS REQUIRED BY THE STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT, RCW 90.58
It was noted that copies of the proposed Shoreline Master Program were available for
audience review, and a report from the Chairwoman of the Shoreline Master Program
Study Committee was requested.
Commissioner Vaupel introduced committee members Jacobs and Houser and advised that
this is the first general review and update of the Shoreline Master Program since
its adoption, which was originated through the efforts of a twenty-member citizens
advisory committee of diverse backgrounds in 1976. It was noted that the revision
is an attempt to reduce ambiguity and designate responsibilities that have been
changed since adoption. The preliminary nature of the document and serious con-
sideration to be given all public comment was stressed. Mr. Blaylock, Zoning Admini-
strator, who provided technical assistance, was then invited to review the proposed
revisions.
Mr. Blaylock provided a brief overview of the history of the Shoreline Master Program,
noting authority, study process, original adoption, and minor modifications since
inception. The City' s inventory of shorelines was pointed out and designated environ- " :j
ments identified and explained. It was noted that these are unchanged. Mr. Blaylock
then reviewed the Program section-by-section, identifying proposed revisions and
providing background concerning the intent and rationale. Specific revisions and/or
additions to the following sections were noted: 1.03, Compliance in Renton; 1.04,
Development of the Master Program; 1. , Procedures; 3. , Shorelines of the City; 4. ,
Goals and Policies; 5. , Environments; 6. , General Use Regulations; 7. , Specific Use
Regulations; 8. , Variances and Conditional Uses; and 9. , Definitions. In addition,
it was noted that references to the Building and Zoning Department and Policy
Development Department had been made throughout the document.
Renton Planning Commission
Public Hearing, June 9, 1982
Page Two
The Committee's review process was described. Mr. Blaylock indicated that the origi-
nal program established two environments, conservancy and urban, and that a natural
environment had been added to include areas designated by the City as wetland.
A recess was declared by the Chairman at 9:10 p.m. The meeting was resumed at
9:20 p.m. with all members noted above in attendance.
The Chairman requested that the recording secretary read into the record any corres-
pondence that had been received.
Mrs. Roberts noted receipt of a letter from Jocelyn C. Jones, 1424 No. 40th St. ,
Renton, requesting delay of any action concerning proposed development at the Port
Quendall complex until after completion of the Shoreline Master Program review.
It was pointed out by Commissioner Walker that the Port Quendall complex is not
before the Commission and, therefore, they have no authority to comply with this
request.
Public comments were invited by the Chairman.
John DuBois, 2907 Mountain View Avenue North, Renton, requested that definitions of
high rise structure and what constitutes a shoreline area be included in the program.
It was also suggested that the Coulon Beach Park and most of Kennydale be considered
for a conservancy designation rather than urban. Comments and suggestions were made
on the following specific sections as well: (1) 2.03.01.I. regarding limiting the
cost of a dock designed for pleasure craft only to $2500, it was suggested that the
amount not be included in view of the effects of inflation and careful delineation
of what is acceptable. Mr. Blaylock advised that the value limit was stipulated by
state law. (2) 2.04.01 concerning review criteria, establishment of jurisdiction
by the Building and Zoning Department was questioned, and it was requested that the
Policy Development Department replace Building and Zoning throughout the document.
(3) 4.01.02(7) relative to objectionable uses and activities in shoreline areas,
it was requested that visual impact be included, specifically light pollution.
In addition, it was requested that an item D. be added to Section 4.01.02 to read,
"Maximum height limitations for any proposed structure shall be no more than 35
feet. " (4) 4.02, Conservation Element. Environmental designation of May Creek
west of FAI-405 was questioned with the request that the entire creek be left in an
undeveloped state. Specifically, relative to 4.02.02.F. (2) , it was requested that
the words, "east of FAI-405" be deleted. (5) 4.04.02.I concerning high-rise
structures, it was requested that the section be revised to read, "High-rise
structures on the shoreline shall be prohibited." and that paragraphs (1) and (2)
be deleted. (6) 4.06.02 concerning shoreline roadways, it was requested that
"should" be changed to "shall." (7) 4.07.02.D concerning multi-family structures
near the shoreline, revision of "should" to "shall" was requested; 4.07.02.F relating
to low density development near the shoreline, revision of "should" to "shall" was
asked; and 4.07.02.H. (2) regarding May Creek, the deletion of "east of FAI-405" was
requested. (8) 5.04.01.B concerning high-intensity land use, it was requested that
"should" be revised to "shall. " (9) 6.02.01 regarding pollution and ecological
disruption it was suggested that the period at the end be changed to a comma and
the following added: "shall not be considered when detrimental effects may occur. "
(10) 7.02.01 concerning aquaculture, Mr. DuBois noted that commercial fishing for
crayfish in shallow water had occurred in the past and requested that it be con-
sidered. (11) 7.04.01 relative to bulkheads, agreement with the committee's posi-
tion on jetties was indicated. (12) 7.05.02 regarding setbacks for commercial
building, the need for the phrase "for good reason" was questioned. (13) 7.07.02
relating to industrial structures, it was requested that the third and fourth lines
be deleted beginning with the word "or" and be changed to read, "Industrial
structures are to be permitted only when they are located on land parcels where
industrial uses currently exist." (14) 7.12.03.C. (2) concerning dock size specifi-
cations for single family docks, elimination of "not limited to conditions requiring
greater dock length and construction" was suggested. (15) 7.15.01 regarding loca-
tion of roads and railroads, it was requested that a specific distance from the
shoreline be indicated and that Lake Washington Boulevard be considered for designa-
tion as a scenic route.
Phyllis LaRue, 2505 Maple Valley Highway, Renton, noting her different view concern-
ing public access and 35 years of having lived on the Cedar River, indicated her
feeling that public accessibility to shorelines and preservation of natural amenities
are not compatible. She provided before and after pictures of property formerly
owned by her husband and herself and now publicly owned to illustrate her conten-
tion. She noted destruction of natural habitat for wildlife and that much of the
Renton Planning Commission
Public Hearing, June 9, 1982
Page Three
wildlife is no longer present. In addition, she complained about erosion in her
front yard as the result of drainage problems associated with property acquired by',
the City and requested that people with private property around public sites be
provided protection. It was indicated that more specific comments and recommenda-
tions will be submitted in writing later.
Lou Bergan, 5029 Ripley Lane, Renton, indicated his approval of additions to the pro-
gram from Mercer Island and Bellevue programs. He also offered comments concerning
specific sections as follows: (1) 4.01.02.7.D, a paragraph proposed by Mr. DuBois
regarding maximum height limitations. It was noted that the City of Bellevue regula-
tions also stipulate 35 feet except in land use districts with more restrictive height
limitations. (2) 4.07.02.H. (2) and 5.03.03 relating to May Creek. It was requested
that the area of May Creek west of FAI-405, including the mouth, be designated as a
conservancy environment to protect wildlife. Objections were raised to proposals for
development in the area, and it was suggested that Gypsy Creek also be included in
the conservancy designation. (3) 7.09.03 concerning design requirements for marinas.
It was requested that an addition to item D or sub-paragraph 1. be made to provide
protection for property owners adjoining a marina or anyone else affected by pollution,
oil spills, etc.
Vikki Littleman, 3805 Lake Washington Boulevard North, Renton, offered the following
comments regarding specific sections: (1) 7.09.04 relating to location of marinas.
To avoid redundancy, it ,was suggested that this section be placed under 7.09.02.
(2) 7.09.02 itemizing criteria for establishment of marinas. Mrs. Littleman requested
that item D. be added to read: "Marinas shall be permitted only after full evaluation
of all environmental impacts. All adverse impacts are to be mitigated including con-
siderations of water quality, public use of surface water, nearby shoreline areas,
parking, visual and noise pollution, adequate police protection, and other factors
deemed appropriate." Relative to item B under the same section, Mrs. Littleman asked
for clarification of the statement, particularly as it concerns determination of the
number of boats in a marina. Additionally, she inquired if the program provided some
guidelines to determine appropriate boat density for a certain area. The staff indi-
cated that these matters would be reviewed further.
Jocelyn Jones, 1424 North 40th Street, Renton, expressed her support for requests made
that May Creek from FAI-405 to the mouth be included in the conservancy environment.
Peggi DuBois, 2907 Mountain View North, Renton, reiterated her husband's concern regard-
ing designation of the Coulon Beach Park addition as a conservancy environment, noting
the large public investment. She also advised that Shoreline Master Programs for Kirk-
land, Bellevue and Mercer Island provide several classifications of urban environments
and suggested this be considered.
Betsy Crawford, 5117 Ripley Lane North, Renton, requested that all of May Creek be con-
sidered for designation as a conservancy environment to provide protection for existing
wildlife. She also requested consideration of a similar designation for Gypsy Creek,
noting recent pollution from development in the area.
John Reed, Renton City Council, requested that definitions be more specific, especially
the definition of water-related and in particular view windows.
Sanford Webb, 430 Mill Avenue South, Renton, indicating his concern regarding review
by more than one department and increased fees, requested that responsibility be fixed
and there be deletion or reduction of fees.
Mrs. DuBois' indicated approval of responsibility by the Building and Zoning Departments
for permits but requested that overall jurisdiction be maintained by the Policy Devel-
opment Department wherever possible.
Mr. Bergan, referring to Section 7.12.06.A. (1) concerning the maximum length of a com-
mercial dock, inquired if that could be changed through a variance. It was noted by
Mr. Blaylock that variances are granted by the state under more strict criteria than
the City's. Responding to Mr. Bergan, Mr. Blaylock also advised that the requirement
that docks be parallel to the shore in the existing program had been omitted in the
proposed revision because of the number of small lots in residential areas.
Mrs. Littleman, noting the thought given to criteria for signs, requested a definition
of a high-rise structure.
Mr. and Mrs. LaRue asked that responsibility be specified for cleanup of public areas
along the water.

..
John- DuB;ois, 2907 Mt. View Ave N.

Asked for definition of high rise as used in this program. If you don't have one, I
would like you to include one.
i
Definition of what constitutes a shoreline area. (DRC established by state law - 200'
from high'wa.ter1line.
i
DuBois: It might be helpful to have that in here as a definition.
!
Why isn't the park that we're putting all this money into and most of Kennydale con-
sidered to be part of the conservancy area-rather than urban? It would fit within the
definition. I would really hate to see something done to the park sometime in the future.
Specific things!: •
l
1. 2.03.01 Construction of a dock limited to $2500.00 - I put in a dock four years
ago, and you haven't changed the amount; you haven't taken into consideration ,
inflation. You have very careful delineation of what's acceptable; I see no reason
to have an amount stated as well.
1
RJB: Unfortunately we don't the authority - the value was stated by state law.
It should be noted that this has been increased. Originally I believe,
when the Act was passed, it was $1500.00.
,2. 2.04.01 Review Criteria - I question putting this underneath the Building and
Zoning Department. I feel it should be under the Policy Development Department.
In every place Building and Zoning should be changed to Policy Development.
1 3. 4.01.02 (7) - In addition to noise and odor, add visual impact, for a couple
of reasons: not just esthetics, but if you will note at any time there is a
boat moorage, one of the things that every boat owner feels, for security reasons,
is a light by their boat. If you have any substantial kind of moorage, that amount
of light pollution will put an incredible impact on anybody in the surrounding
area. 1
Add item D.; - Maximum height limitations for any proposed structure shall be no
more than 315 feet.
4. 4.02, Conservation Element: Question throughout - why just the existing waterway
of May Creek east of 405 left in an undeveloped state - why not May Creek.
4.02.02.F. (2) - delete "as much as possible." Note: Deleted by committee.
Then just delete "east of FAI-405."
1
5. 4.04.02.I -I Limit to "High-rise structures on the shoreline shall be prohibited."
Delete (1) and (2) . There are no topographic conditions within the Renton city,
limits that would justify being an exception.
. 4.06.02, Po',licies - A. Change "should" to "shall. "
641'
" Z. (
ka4.07.02,- del Policies - D. Change "should" to itiggpr F. Change should to "shall."

PA
(9 . 6.02.01 change period to a comma and add, "shall not be considered when detri- 3
r mental effeIcts may occur."
10. 7.02.01 - Aquaculture - You may not be aware of - has happened in the past in the
city of Renton - commercial fishing for crayfish on Lake Washington. It's not
okk happening at present to my knowledge, but it has happened in the past, and it(..: )
would fit under the definition of aquaculture, and you may wish to consider that.
There was allot of problem when it was happening because the people that were
doing it - (secondary shorelines are not exactly defined - and because of the nature
of the beast they had to in fact fish in shallow water where the crayfish were
located. RJB: Were they actually leasing the land under the water. . .? No,
They were just fishing; they got a permit from the state to fish, and they were ;
putting the' traps down in water depths usually of 10'-12' because about-the
maximum depth for crayfish is about 30' - 35' . RJB: They were fishing and note
actually farming where they, were restocking. . . There was a proposal for that,
but they never got that far. They were fishing them and shipping them to Sweden
and there Was a proposal to go into but it fell through.

11. 7.04.01' - ICI would second your conclusion of jetties.
12. 7.05.02 - The phrase "for good reason" is used a lot of places, and I realize that
these have to be written ambiguous, but since you can specifically consider water
related commercial development and otherwise, I don't see why a commercial building OP -
; lt the resrilction for 50' setback would be waived unless it was water related. DRC:
To get !to the Hearing Examiner, it would have to be a variance or conditional use;
"for good reason" is more precisely established under those criteria that.
1
• 7 07.02 - Delete the third and four lines beginning with the word "or" to read,
YO �'Industrial structures are to be permitted only when they are located on land
parcelslwhere industrial uses currently exist."
iI
14. 7.12.03C.i(2) - Dock Size Specifications - Question this "not limited to conditions
requiring greater dock length and construction." When we're talking about docks,
we're really only talking about Lake Washington. I live on Coleman Point, which is
0V the shallowest place within the Renton jurisdiction. I have a hundred foot dock,
which oi;s the maximum allowed, and it gives me 8' of water at the end of the dock.
I cannot consider a situation that would require somebody to have a dock longer
than your required 100 feet. That's why I question why that would be necessary.
Vaupel: ll Your suggestion is that be eliminated? Yes. RJB: We do have some I
situations;where that has happened, and we have granted variances. Some of them
are up to 180' in length, and we have only 4}' of water, and there are two or I
three of them side by side. I
15. 7.15.011i - Roads and Railroads. It says they are to be located away from shorelines,
but youllare not at all specific about how far away, when you're talking about major
0 highways and primary arterials. I'm going to show my prejudice because I think
4 that Lake Washington Boulevard should be designated as scenic route, and certainly
it is right along the shore. But I think you might consider some number in there.

I have a little different view from other people. I have lived on the Cedar River for
35 years, and I have seen the development along it. I notice that you stress in this
study thaty,ou ,want to increase the public accessibility to the shoreline and to pre-
serve and improve the natural amenities. These are not compatible, particularly in'I,
the areas where you have more wildlife, a more natural area. You might want`to consider
that. Unfortunately, I have had several pieces or property condemned for parks, and I
spent quitea few years taking care of the area along the Cedar River, which was quite
beautiful. And now I have pictures of how public access has destroyed what we took, care
of for many;lyears - displayed pictures: half-bridge area, area made into a park and
was once time a grassy area, the private access bridge. You might want to considers
that public ,access destroys wildlife, destroys the natural zone. The first thing the
crew did, when ithey came over to start cutting the Cedar River Trail, we to roll rocks
into the river, and cut down trees. We have blue herons, otters, deer that have been
over there. And now we're having problems. The blue herons have been killed; we '
don't see the otters any more; and deer are on the far side of the highway now, and
one got killedlthe other night. So you might want to consider that improving public
access is net necessarily going to improve the environment.
1
The other thing that I'd like to inquire about is does the City have to conform to the
rules for development that they pub on the person who is developing his property?
DRC: The answer is most definitely yes.
Soil erosions, bank erosion, drainage from new drainage installations - all that should
be taken care oif by the City then? It's not the case.. The piece of property that was
acquired bythe' City required a channel change, and a road change. My front yard is
now eroded. IIThe City, in fact, may not be the culprit; but in condemnation, the state
says it's not theirs. The other agencies that control the shorelines say it's not
their responsibility. Consequently, our front yard has eroded. When you have a heavy
rain storm, theiwater comes off the half-bridge, pours down into the Cedar River and
pollutes the river. So if you are thinking of buying more property along the river;
then you have to protect the people with private property that surrounds this piece
of property.', You might want to look at what has happened in the past along that line.
I have more specific things, but I will write those for you.

Lou Bergan, 5029 Ripley Lane, Renton
I was glad to hear that you had borrowed a few paragraphs from Mercer Island and Bellevue.
I also read 'a few of them and thought some of them ought to be included.
Re. 4.01°102:7.D - Referred to suggestion by Mr. DuBois re. maximum height limitations.
Read same paragraph by the City of Bellevue, which is under their general regulations
applicable to all land use districts and activities which is paragraph B under Shoreline
Use Regulations. It states, "Maximum height limitations of any proposed structure within
the shoreline overlake (?) district shall be 35 feet except in land use districts with
more restrictive height limitations. . . . . They mention variances can be applied for.
Re. 4.07.02.H. (2) -5.03.03 - You're calling out where the May Creek, and I think also
Gypsy Creek out to be included, in conservancy areas. I see no reason why the mouth of
the creek shouldn't also be conservancy, since it's the most important part of the creek,
if you wantito maintain any kind of wildlife or fish habitat - any kind of fish going
qr back up to spawn. That's obviously the most important part to, control. That property
4
4 where the mouth of the river is, is up for re-development. They're going to change the
i old existing use of that property. The property was brought into the City of Renton
under an old G-6000 zoning and changed to what it was at the time. Now they're changing
that whole intent of that property - the whole intent of the shoreline. I really think
the Renton Shoreline Management Act wasn't written to allow the type of development
they're talking about putting in.
Re. 7.09.03 ,- add D.1. - or add a sentence to that (D) . Anybody who puts in a marina
ught to post a bond that they will take care of adjoining property owners or anybody
else affected by pollution, oil spills and the like, as we all know that marinas are
®t some of the biggest polluters of the lakes. They all claim to have septic tanks or
1' sewage transfer facilities, etc., that are never used. Obviously, the pollution is
going into the lakes. I think there should be something in thereto protect the property
owners and the City. They're all saying they will do this, but none of them do it.
It's time to put a little more teeth into the program.
imikki Littleman, 3805 Lake Washington Blvd. No., Renton
ie. 7.09104/7.09.02 - I'd like to see Sec. 7.09.04, Location of Marinas, placed under
0� � -c. 7.09.02. The sentence on location of marinas really doesn't add anything new.
', ,i t's just stating points A. , B. , and C. over again.
�� Re. 7.09.02 - Also I would like to see point D added so it would read: "Marinas
,pp shall be permitted only after full evaluation of all environmental impacts. All
6 adverse impacts are to be mitigated including considerations of water quality, public
se of surface water, nearby shoreline areas, parking, visual and noise pollution,
��� adequate police protection, and other factors deemed appropriate. " Also, I have a
concern in the marina area as far as what kind of regulation, what kind of criteria
are you using to determine the number of boats in a marina? I don't know if Section
B is speaking to that or not. Could someone clarify Section B to me?
(iik
RJB: Actually the public hearing is to help clarify it. The way it's written, "adequate"
is subjective, adequate to the person who has a 60-foot boat, or adequate to a person who
has a ski boat or dingy. It's something that has to be evaluated in any environmental
review. The intent is to set a goal. The goal may be very general, but you're sug-
gesting certain policies that they would have to comply with to reach that goal, "adequacy. "
So I can't come up with a specific definition.
What's the actual point of the statement? RJB: It's a goal - it's assumed in a lot of
cases, but it's stated just to assert that assumption that there has to be a determination
that it's adequate. ,
DRC: It's certainly a legitimate question. Maybe we could come up with better language.
It just seems very unclear. Also, from this do you feel there are some guidelines
to determine appropriate boat density for a certain area? DRC: That one's a lot tougher
but it again falls into "we need to do something with it." Mrs. Littleman: I think
that would be a very important concern.

I would like to add my voice to Mr. DuBois and the other gentleman on their concern
for May Creek from the I-405 bridge to the mouth. That area is close to my house.
I was under the impression since we moved there that it was a protected area, but
evidently it is not. I would like to add my voice to having that portion of May Creek
be included, in the conservancy/protected area.

I would like to question that in the addition - my husband previously made a brief
comment about 'it, but I would like some more clarification - we add a natural delineation
for property that we really don't have but that we might possibly have some day - and I
think that's terrific. But, when you look at the shores of Lake Washington under Urban,
it clearly says it's high intensity land use including commercial and industrial. As a
Renton resident - and I contacted people from Lakeridge Community Club, Renton Hill, and
Victoria Park ;- people who utilize the Park - I don't use it much or haven't yet. We
spend $9,000,000 for a park, and yet it is listed under urban usage. The majority of
the land on our shoreline is residential except for a very small part of it, and I
looked in Kirkland's and Bellevue's and Mercer Island's Shoreline Master Plans, and
they have urban, but it's broken down into several different classifications. I think
that that might be a really wise thing for us to do because about 8 or 9 years ago it
was brought up very frankly to sell the area that our park was on, and even though I
think that the City residents would have a heart attack at the thought of that ever
happening, the possibility under urban delineation for that park - it could happen.
It is listed that is one of the usages of that shoreline. I think we have such a small
area that it would serve a very strong purpose if we went through and did see actually
what the feasibility of future use of that land is and then perhaps break down the urban
into something more specific. It really terrifies me to think that two miles of beach
at a cost of i$9,000,000 is still listed as being able to have industrial and commercial
development on it. That was the only reiteration I would like to make.
IBetsy Crawford, 5117 Ripley Lane North, Renton
Re: May Creek - kids go up there fishing all the time. It's a nice place to keep as a
wildlife preserve. I see lots of rabbits, beavers - a lot of wildlife down there. And
also we live next to Gypsy Creek. Since we lived down there - at first the creek was
nice and clear all the time. Since they started developing across Exit 7, it is no
longer clear; it is murky. The mouth of it is full of sediment. We can't even walk
in it anymore. Talking to people they say it isn't caused from that, but I don't where
it would be coming from because that's the only development that's going on. And I just
think it should be looked at and considered.
John Reed, Renton City Council
Re: Definitions - It would appear that many of the definitions are drawn from the
definitions in the Regional Plan. It is my opinion that those definitions on a local
level should be more specific and define more exactly what we're trying to do with it.
I point specifically to the definition of water related - more specifically to a point
where it say's, view windows. . . . . could be made, and I am sure will be, that a
restaurant is an appropriate use of land on the lakefront because indeed the water
enhances the profitability of restaurants. To me that is just an enhancement to that
restaurant that makes it more profitable for a restaurant owner. In that sense you
can argue that that is an appropriate use. It's not as far as I'm concerned. Same
thing would apply to a motel or
"Sandy Webb
All of the detail points that I could think of were taken care of. The one thing that
does disturb me a little bit is that the City, I believe, was supposedly reorganized
for efficiency. And yet I find that we are cranking in additional reviews. In other
words, we have two departments reviewing something while only one reviewed it before.
And the statement was made that the fees have been increased to take care of this.
I think we should fix responsibility and delete or reduce unnecessary fees for double
review.

All the way; through you seem have given a lot of responsibility over to Building and
Zoning, and' from a mechanical standpoint that would be fine. But I would appreciate
it, and 'granted we didn't have a lot of time to go through this, if you would really
check very closely areas that can be maintained under the Planning Department so that
just because Building and Zoning take care of the mechanics that the Planning Depart-
ment still has an overall - a fair amount of control over things that are regarded on
the shoreline. And I missed some of the exact points, but I notice there were so many
places where the responsibility had changed, and I would think a lot of us feel quite
comfortable with the Planning Department having a certain amount of jurisdiction and
say-1 so.

Lou Bergan:
e/• have a couple of quick questions. Under Commercial and Industrial Docks, 7.12.06.A. (1)
you call out the maximum length of a commercial dock as 250' . Is that maximum, orcan
VQyou get that changed,by variances?
RJB: Variances are possible but it should be noted that variances are granted by the
state, and their review criteria is even stricter than the City's. If we're doing a
variance on shoreline, we have I believe seven under our variance criteria under our
zoning that we apply, and the state has eight; and they must comply with all 15.
Bergan:
Is it safe' to' assume then that if a marina was to be put into the city of Renton that
the maximum length of the dock would be 250 feet?
RJB: I don't think we have specifically considered that. . .
Bergan: Would marina fall under commercial or industrial lots? (??) I must also point
out in the old plan you had an A 1,2, and 3 which have been left out where docks should
be put in parallel to the shore rather than out into the lake.
RJB: Our problem there was we have a lot of small lots in residential areas that wouldn't
quite fit, very difficult.
Bergan: Another think on commercial you wouldn't
Vikki Littleman:
I was wondering why there really is not a definition of a high-rise structure. I'm
looking at the section on signs, design requirements. The same type of thought given
to signs should be given to high rise structures. It seems there should be more thought
into that section, and it should be more clearly defined.
Porter: Do you have a suggestion?
Littleman: No, but I'll think about it.
DRC: Going back to the point that Mr. DuBois was making, I would like to point out that
one of the reasons that the reorganization took place was to put all the permit process
in one place - the responsibility for that. We still have the review requirement as
does about six other departments. If we're not satisfied, if we've got a problem we
can't resolve internally, we will champion the point that you are concerned about.
Mrs. LaRue: I have a question where you are encouraging the public use of the waterways,
which I understand is really nice in some areas, who is responsible for cleanup of the
public areas? Please specify who will be responsible for cleanup of public areas along
the water.
Mr. LaRue: I'd like to make a case in point of what my wife is talking about - the
east end of the half-bridge on Maple Valley Highway. We have some pictures of how it's
usually torn up by four-wheel drives in the winter time, and when it's hard and dry in
the summer time the lawn is destroyed. But during the summer, they come down to the
east end of the half-bridge and picnic there, and this is at the east end of our
property, and they leave a mess. There are no facilities there. It's just a nice
place to be! down by the river. It's not tended, and it's the City of Renton property.
A case in point for cleaning up these areas.
Walker: Can't somebody answer now who they should call. Shouldn't they call the Police?
Mrs. LaRue:' We have called the Police. We have people camping underneath the bridge.
In fact, a woman was living underneath there - no established facilities, of course.
We called the Police, and the Police said there wasn't anything they could do because
it's public access right at that area. Consequently, children playing in the area
can't go.up there now. . .
Mr. LaRue: ' They seem to know the lady; she wanders around town quite a bit. They were
well aware of her.
Mr. Bergan: What's wrong with the idea of putting a littering thing into the Shoreline
Management Act? There's a $500 fine for littering.
Walker: Suggest you talk to the City Council on Monday night.
