property tracts as "public use areas," including that City of Renton-owned real property tract now
known as King County Parcel Number 7227802041, and described in Exhibit A, attached hereto
and incorporated by this reference (the "Parcel"); and
WHEREAS,the Parcel was legally divided from the property to its south via City of Renton
Short Plat LUA 16-000960, recorded under King County Recording Number 20170519900004,
which was the former Renton Highlands Library site, and is now owned by Renton Housing
Authority and now designated as the Sunset Multi-Service and Career Development Center site;
and
WHEREAS, as part of the Sunset Area Community Planned Action adopted by the City in
2011, the Parcel was designated as intended for alley use and as a green connection, but the
Parcel has to date not been formally designated as anything other than a "public use area;" and
WHEREAS, formally designating the Parcel as a "public alley" after conducting a duly-
noticed public hearing would be consistent with the Parcel's "public use area" designation
established in the original plat, allow the City to improve the full length of the Parcel to meet
engineering standards for alley access, memorialize the access for the abutting parcels that
currently utilize the Parcel for vehicular access, allow future developments abutting the Parcel to
be alley-accessed, and provide due process to those with property interests at issue; and
