Dear City of Renton, I am writing in opposition to the proposal of the
new driveway off NE 6th St in the established Shamrock Heights
neighborhood. The property owner requesting this subdivision and
new driveway purchased this lot knowing it was accessible via Nile
Ave NE, not NE 6th which is part of an established neighborhood. It
is not part of the Shamrock Heights neighborhood and our HOA is no
longer allowing new homes into the association. The current owners
began construction over year ago doing partial work only to leave
unfinished messes behind. They have not taken care of their land and
have already left our neighborhood with an unappealing entrance
landscape. Their lack of yard maintenance has caused significant
issues of drainage and rodents to the homes on Mt. Baker Ave NE
that back up to the property. There is also an issue with the large
retaining wall and how this will be maintained and secured for the
current properties backing the proposed driveway and property. In
addition, NE 6th St already has limited parking and issues with traffic
cutting through the neighborhood along with excess speed. Adding
another home access to our neighborhood streets will continue to add
to this current issue. Shamrock Heights was designed as a green
neighborhood and our HOA maintains common green spaces and
parks. Opening the neighborhood streets invites non-HOA members
to utilize our private facilities without responsibility to support the
maintenance. It would be nice to see this current property owner step
up and take responsibility for their current property to relieve the
homes that are affected by their lack of maintenance. Adding another
home and using our neighborhood streets to do so is not in the best
interest of our community. Thank you, Kimberly Pope
