This project, the Singh 6 th Street Short Plat, is proposed on a 0.46 -acre site and is located
in the R-4 zone. The parcel number of the project site is 1023059170 .
FIGURE 1 – Vicinity Map
The existing 0.46 -acre site is a developed single-family residential lot. The neighboring
parcels are also developed single-family residential lots. The parcel is a corner lot which
has frontage on Northeast 6 th Street along the south property line and frontage on Nile
Avenue Northeast along the east property line.
The project will consist of dividing the lot into two single-family residential lots, the
construction of a new single-family residence and driveway providing access to
Northeast 6 th Street and frontage improvements along Nile Avenue Northeast. Nile
Avenue is classified a collector with a right -of-way (ROW) width of 60 feet. A half-street
paved width of 22 feet off the center line of the road, 0.5 -foot wide curb, 8 -foot-wide
landscape planter, and 5 -foot wide sidewalk is required. There will be 6.5 feet or ROW
dedication to the City along the east side of the property line. NE 6th Street
Project Site
The general slope of the land is towards the west based on topographic information
from Renton’s GIS. On -site soils are identified in the NRCS Soil Survey as primarily
Alderwood gravelly, sandy loam (type C soil). Under existing conditions, the majority
of the stormwater runoff from the project site is naturally dispersed toward the south
edge of the property.
This project proposes to disperse part of the runoff from the existing and new roofs
using infiltration trenches, splashblocks, and dispersion trenches. The runoff from the
new driveway on Lot 1 will disperse to the northwest with a sheet flow basic dispersion
system. The remaining impervious area will sheet flow to the south.
There are no critical areas such as wetlands, water bodies, or steep slopes known to
exist on this project site. No significant trees were found.
The estimated quantities or fill or excavation is approximately 2,000 cubic yards.
