Project Name: Hopkins Shed Variance
Owners / Applicants: Susan Hopkins and Marjorie Lynn
Project Location: 15005 132nd Ave., SE, Renton, WA 98058
Reference: CODE20-000601
Summary:
This application is being submitted to request approval of an Administrative Variance from the
provisions of the Renton Municipal Code in the Residential -4 (R-4) zone regulating minimum setbacks.
The purpose of the variance is to allow for a 420 square foot outbuilding (storage she d with daylight
workshop space) at 15005 132nd Ave., SE, Renton, WA 98058, with an easing of regulations for the shed
to remain in its current location between the house and the street.
The lot at the project location is 9,660 square feet in area. The foot print of existing structures includes a
single-family home, 970 square feet; a 447 square foot polycarbonate roof covering a 74 square foot
shed (identified on the site plan as Shed #1); a 96 square foot shed (identified on the site plan as Shed
#2) and the newly built 420 square foot shed. R-4 zoning requires a maximum building coverage of 35%
and maximum impervious surface area of 50%. Including all structures, total building coverage is
significantly less at 20%, with impervious surface area also signifi cantly less at 20%.
The lot is situated at the intersection of SE 150th Street and 132nd Ave SE. Due to the shape of the lot and
placement of the house, septic tank and drainfield, the optimal location of the shed is between the
north side of the house and SE 150th Street. There is no encroachment on front, side or back yard
setbacks and the minimum distance to the structure significantly exceeds the required six feet.
Applicants are requesting this variance to allow the shed to remain in its curre nt location.
