Subject:RE: Comments to oppose PR21-000357 Singh 6th st short plat
Thank you for your comments. I apologize for the delay in responding, however we had been working with the applicant
to revise their plans to comply with City requirements. You have been added as a party of record for this project, as a
party of record you will receive copies of City correspondence and any decisions issued on this project. I have included
your comments in the official file for consideration by the decision maker.
Your comments included concerns with regards to drainage, retaining wall stability, and property maintenance:
1. The short plat improvements would be reviewed by a City engineer for compliance with the City of Renton
Surface Water Design Manual for drainage improvements.
2. With regards to the existing retaining walls, the applicant would be required to demonstrate that the existing
retaining walls would be sufficient to accommodate the new sidewalk improvements and driveway access along
NE 6th St.
3. Any concerns regarding existing property maintenance should be forwarded to our code compliance
department at codecompliance@rentonwa.gov for their review.
4. You also expressed concerns with regards to the proposed lots not being included within your Home Owner’s
Association. As the existing lot is located outside of the existing Home Owner’s Association, they would not be
required to join your HOA and would not entitled to utilize any common, private improvements that are owned
and maintained by your HOA.
Thanks,
JILL DING, Senior Planner

Hello,
I sit right behind this plat at 602 Mt Baker Ave NE. I write this to you as I can not figure out how to add comments online.
I am very opposed to this addition. My biggest concern is the drainage issues that already exists and could increase due
to the new impervious surfaces. What will be done to address these new issues. What will happen with the integrity of
the retaining wall that sits on this street going to the property. Also how close to the property line will the drainage plan
be addressing.
This project has been messy, lots of extra rodents, fences being knocked down due to lack of major weeds and bushes
pushing against the whole line of fences.

The fact that they would be within our community and benefit from our HOA without contributing and being made
responsible for use is also highly concerning.
Please respond and let me know this has been added to the concerns and will be addressed before a decision is made.
Thank you so much for your time,
Felicia Bergman
