Hi Brittany,
Yes, this is accurate. We won’t be doing any parking lot changes as part of this project. The only thing we may do, if we
have to, is to park a mobile HVAC unit / trailer in the lot to serve the lab on a temporary basis – but only if our
permanent RTU does not arrive in time. We don’t plan any changes to the parking lot by the main entrance, where it is
clouded on this plan, at this time.
Thanks,
Ben Newton

Thank you, Ben!
In your application, you note that the parking lot improvements will be handled in a later scope of work and will not be
completed during your TI building permitting. We are planning to be reviewing the TUP for internal improvements only,
and any external changes to the site will need to go through the CUP/SEPA/Site Plan Review process. Due to this, I’d like
to clearly note that the parking lot improvements are not proposed as part of the TUP.
I’ve redlined your plans to reflect this for the TUP submittal. Can you take a look and confirm that the document is
accurate and that you are ok with including this as your submission?
Thank you,

Hi all-
Please see the attached email chain where Bill Hardy Looks like Bill Hardy actually signed on behalf of BH Properties and
the folks at the City of Renton can see that Bill sent this to us on Friday (his signature block is below)…
Also, I pulled up BH Properties website and management team. Steve Gonzini is on the top as Chairman & CEO and Bill
Hardy is on the 2nd line as Senior Managing Director. Both are authorized signatories… Clearly this is this is authorized
by BH Properties and Britany feel free to call Bill Hardy directly (his contact info is in the attached email) if you need
further assurance.
https://bhproperties.com/management-team
Does this do the trick or I need to dig up some additional “proof?” Please let us know ASAP. Thank you!

Hi Brittany,
Thanks for your time on the phone just now explaining what you are looking for. Would the attached link, which lists
Arsalan Gozini as the Director of B.H. 1601 Lind Ave LLC work:
https://www.washingtoncompany.net/companies/604257162/
I looked at the LOI and it was signed by each side’s brokers / asset managers … so that won’t work. I have CCed our
broker (Jeff Jochums with CBRE) who is reaching out to the asset manager at B.H. 1601 Lind Ave LLC to see what
documents they may have handy that could confirm this for you as well.
Thanks again,

Hi Ben,
I actually sent you an email earlier this morning regarding an additional item needed for the submittal. Once we get the
proof of authorization that Arsalan Gozini can sign on behalf of B.H. 1601 Lind Ave LLC I’ll send you over your invoice as
the final application item.

Hello Ben and Alicia,
I’ve just sent you a link to our file sharing portal for your TUP II file uploads. Here’s a copy of the link again just in case:
https://fileshare.rentonwa.gov:8443/?ShareToken=A5F91692AB0F0EFB54AA0927FBD74475F2BFBA92
As I had mentioned to Ben over the phone this afternoon, we will be aiming to accept the project no later than Monday
Nov 22nd to attempt to keep the Building permit approval date to Dec. 6th.
When Yong has more information on the utilities information needed, we will reach out to let you know. Until then, I am
happy to take a look at what you have ready and get things prepared for project acceptance on Monday.
Let me know if you have any questions, or feel free to give me a call.
Thank you,

Thank you, Brittany – that sounds good. We are making progress on our side, I should be sending the owner letter and
master application to the landlord for signature this afternoon or first thing tomorrow morning. Still aiming to submit by
the end of this week and start construction the first full week of December.

Hello Ben,
I’m checking in to let you know that we need a little more time to gather information to let you know what we anticipate
waiving. I believe there may be a few specific items that will be reviewed as part of the TUP in anticipation of your
building permits and so we want to make sure we have the right information up front to get your permit moving quickly
when it is submitted. I’ll check in again tomorrow when I have more details.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks so much, Brittany! This is very helpful – we will work to get a separate TUP master application completed and
signed by the building owner.
It was great to meet you as well! We’ll look for emails from you and Vanessa soon on the other items and will let you
know if we have any additional questions as we put together our application.

Hello Ben and Alicia,
It was nice to meet you both today! I was able to follow up on a few of the questions from our meeting and there are a
few other items that I am waiting for a response on and will hopefully have to you early tomorrow.
As it turns out, you will need two separate master applications, one for the TUP and one for the CUP/SEPA application.
I checked in with Vanessa and the hold harmless agreement should be on it’s way shortly.
Here is a link to our Temporary Use Permit section of code: it goes over the decision criteria that will be used to review
your permit. Please include any additional details that may speak to these criteria in your project narrative.
https://www.codepublishing.com/WA/Renton/#!/Renton04/Renton0408/Renton0408090.html#4-8-090
I will have more information for you early tomorrow regarding utility submittal requirements. I will send you another
email when I have more to share.
Please let me know if you have other questions I can look into.
