However, there is a corridor improvement plan for NE 4th St that consists of a 66 foot paved road, a 10 foot landscaped sidewalk and storm drainage improvements. Dedication of approximately 1 foot is required for the street frontage. b. The proposed project fronts 156th Ave SE along the east property line. 156th Ave SE is classified as a Minor Arterial street with an existing ROW width of approximately 60 feet. To meet the City’s complete street standards for Minor Arterial streets the minimum ROW width is 91-feet. Per RMC 4-6-060 half street improvements would include a pavement width of 54 feet (27 feet from centerline) a 0.5 foot curb, 8 foot planting strip, 8 foot sidewalk, street trees and stomr drainage improvements. Dedication of approximately 15.5 feet would be required. i. However, the City has determined that a 71 foot ROW including a three lane street with bike lanes was applicable to this section of 156th Ave SE. Therefore, the City will support a modification to include a paved roadway width of 44 feet (consisting of two 5 foot bike lanes, two 11 foot travel lanes and a 12 foot center turn lane) with a 0.5 foot curb, an 8 foot planting strip a 5 foot sidewalk, street trees and storm drainage improvements on both sides. Half street of the street improvements as taken from the ROW centerline are required. A ROW dedication for this modified road section would be approximately 5.5 feet pending final survey. 2. Refer to City code 4-4-080 regarding driveway regulations. a. A minimum separation of 5 feet is required between driveway and the property line. b. Maximum driveway slopes shall not exceed 15%. Driveways exceeding 8% shall provide slotted drains. c. The maximum width of a driveway is 30 feet exclusive of the radii of the returns and taper section. A modification will be required for the proposed driveway more than 30 feet. 3. Street lighting is required along all public street frontages for projects with more than 5,000 SF of commercial space. See RMC 4-6-060 for street lighting requirements. 4. Undergrounding of all existing and proposed utilities is required on all frontages per RMC 4-6- 090. 5. Sites that generate 20 or more net new peak hour trips (either in the AM peak or PM peak) are required to do a traffic impact analysis. The trips should be calculated based on the guidelines of the current ITE Trip Generation Manual. Refer to the attached policy guidelines for traffic impact analysis for guidelines. If the site generates 20 or more new peak hour trips in either AM peak or PM peak, then applicant should contact the City to get information of the locations where traffic analysis is required. 6. Paving and trench restoration within the City of Renton right of way shall comply with the City’s Restoration and Overlay requirements. GENERAL COMMENTS 1. All existing and proposed utility lines (i.e. electrical, phone, and cable services, etc.) along property frontage or within the site must be underground. The construction of these franchise utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton inspector. 2. Adequate separation between utilities as well as other features shall be provided in accordance with code requirements. a. 7-ft minimum horizontal and 1-ft vertical separation between storm and other utilities is required with the exception of water lines which require 10-ft horizontal and 1.5-ft vertical. b. The stormwater line should be minimum 5 feet away from any other structure or wall or building. c. Trench of any utility should not be in the zone of influence of the retaining wall or of the building. 3.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT M E M O R A N D U M DATE: January 6, 2022 TO: Pre-Application File No. 21-000442 FROM: Andrew Van Gordon, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Renton Regional Fire Authority Station 16 – Parcel number 1423059063 General: We have completed a preliminary review of the pre-application for the above- referenced development proposal. The following comments on development and permitting issues are based on the pre-application submittals made to the City of Renton by the applicant and the codes in effect on the date of review. The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision- makers (e.g., Hearing Examiner, Community & Economic Development Administrator, Public Works Administrator, Planning Director, and City Council). Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code. The Development Regulations are available online at https://www.codepublishing.com/WA/Renton/. Project Proposal: The subject property is a lot located at the intersection of NE 4th St and 156th Ave SE (Parcel number 1423059063). The parcel has public street frontage on NE 4th St and 156th Ave SE and is located within the R-4 Zone. The site area is approximately 204,732 square feet (4.70 acres) and is currently vacant. The proposal is to relocate an existing fire station from an adjacent property to the south (located 12923 156th Ave SE, tax parcel 1423059095) and construct a new facility. This would involve a land exchange with the current owner of parcel number 1423059063, King County Parks. Access is proposed from 156th Ave SE and NE 4th St. Associated stormwater facilities are also proposed. Current Use: The property is currently vacant. It is unclear if the existing fire station structure is proposed to be demolished or converted to a new use. Zoning/Density Requirements: The subject property is located within the Residential-4 (R-4) zoning classification. A fire station falls under the City Government Facilities use type. Within the R-4 zone a City Government Facilities requires review and approval through a Conditional Use Permit subject to review by the Hearing Examiner. Development Standards: The project would be subject to RMC 4-2-110A, “Development Standards for Residential Zoning Designations” effective at the time of complete application (noted as “R-4 standards” herein). Minimum Lot Size, Width and Depth – The minimum lot size permitted in the R-4 zone is 9,000 square feet. Minimum lot width is 80 feet for corner lots; minimum lot depth is 100 feet. Renton Regional Fire Authority Station 16, PRE21-000442 Page 2 of 6 January 6, 2022 Based on the pre-application submittal provided by the applicant, proposed lots appear to comply with minimum lot size, width, and depth requirements of the zone. Dedication along NE 4th St and 156th Ave SE will be required; please keep in mind that minimum lot size requirements do not include dedication areas. The applicant will need to demonstrate compliance with the minimum lot size, width and depth requirements of the zone (following deduction of ROW), based on the definitions of lot size, width, and depth (RMC 4-11-120), prior to the City accepting the formal land use application. Building Standards – The R-4 standards allow a maximum building coverage of 35% of the lot area. The maximum impervious coverage in the R-4 zone is 50%. The allowed height of public facilities shall be determined through site plan review. New projects would need to comply with the maximum building coverage, impervious surface requirements, and building height regulations of the zone at the time of building permit review. Setbacks – Setbacks are the minimum required distance between the building footprint and the property line. The required setbacks for the R-4 zone are: Front yard: 30 feet for the primary structure; Rear yard: 25 feet; Side yards: combined 20 feet with not less than 7.5 feet on either side; and secondary front yards: 30 feet. Side yard along a street is defined as the yard requirement that is neither a front yard nor a rear yard, yet it abuts a street right-of-way or private street. New detached dwellings must comply with the secondary front yard setback requirements. Compliance with required setbacks for the new buildings would be verified at the time of building permit application. Access/Parking: Access is proposed from 156th Ave SE and NE 4th St. Access to NE 4th St is proposed to be one way exiting the property for the benefit of fire equipment leaving the station. Seventeen total parking stalls are proposed: 12 for the benefit of station employees and five for the benefit of the general public. Fire equipment is proposed to be stored within the structure. Stalls are shown to be 18 feet in depth and nine feet in width with a 25-foot travel way. If a use type is not specifically identified in the parking requirements, the amount of required parking shall be the same as for the most similar use. The width of any driveway for uses other than industrial, warehouse, shopping centers, single family and duplexes shall not exceed thirty feet (30’) exclusive of the radii of the returns or the taper section, the measurement being made parallel to the centerline. The maximum number of driveways shall be no more than one driveway for each one hundred six five feet (165’) of street frontage serving any one property. For every additional 165 feet of street frontage another driveway may be permitted. As proposed, parking stalls are not meeting requirements. A parking stall in the R-4 zone is required to be a minimum of 20 feet in length and nine feet in depth. Compact stalls shall each by 8.5’ x 16’ but cannot exceed 40% of designated employee parking and 30% of all other uses. The driveway onto NE 4th St exceeds dimensional standards and would require a modification for approval. The City Government Facilities use type is not listed within RMC 4 -4-080 Parking, Loading and Driveway Regulations. One of the decision criteria for approval of a Conditional Use permit is that adequate parking is provided. As there is no prescribed parking requirement within the Renton Municipal Code a parking study identifying the number of spaces needed for the use would be requested; this would be used as a basis for the recommendation. Proposed parking, including bicycle parking, shall meet the requirements of RMC 4-4-080 Parking, Loading and Driveway Regulations. Please also be aware that on the adjoining parcel to the west a proposed short plat has come in for pre-application. The planned street alignment is to be on the east side of that property (abutting this proposal) meeting half street improvement Renton Regional Fire Authority Station 16, PRE21-000442 Page 3 of 6 January 6, 2022 requirements. If the short plat comes in before this project, then the fire station development would be required to complete the half street improvements. Landscaping: With the exception of critical areas, all portions of the development area not covered by structures, required parking, access, circulation or service areas, must be landscaped with native, drought-resistant vegetative cover. The minimum on-site landscape width required along street frontages is 10 feet and shall contain trees, shrubs, and landscaping. Street trees in the ROW planter will also be required. Landscaping may include hardscape such as decorative paving, rock outcroppings, fountains, plant containers, etc. Minimum planting strip widths between the curb and sidewalk are established according to the street development standards of RMC 4-6-060. Street trees and, at a minimum, groundcover is to be located in this area when present. Street trees shall be planted in the center of the planting strip between the curb and the sidewalk at the following intervals; provided, that, where right-of-way is constrained, irregular intervals and slight increases or decreases may be permitted or required. Additionally, trees shall be planted in locations that meet required spacing distances from facilities located in the right- of-way including, but not limited to, underground utilities, street lights, utility poles, traffic signs, fire hydrants, and driveways; such spacing standards are identified in the City’s Approved Tree List. Generally, the following spacing is required: i. Small-sized maturing trees: thirty feet (30') on center; ii. Medium-sized maturing trees: forty feet (40') on center; and iii. Large-sized maturing trees: fifty feet (50') on center. For nonresidential development in a residential zone, when abutting less intensive uses, requires a 15’ wide partially sight obscuring landscaped visual barrier or 10’ wide fully sight-obscuring visual barrier along common property lines. Parking areas shall meet the minimum requirements for perimeter and interior parking lot landscaping. A conceptual landscape plan shall be provided with the land use application as prepared by a licensed Landscape Architect, a certified nurseryman or other certified professional. The proposed trail easement cannot displace any required landscaping standards or other buffering as may be determined to be required through the Conditional Use Permit. Storm drainage facilities are required to comply with the minimum 15-foot perimeter landscaping strip on the outside of the fence unless otherwise determined through the site plan review or subdivision review process. Please refer to landscape regulations RMC 4-4-070 for further general and specific landscape requirements. Significant Tree Retention: Staff review of aerial image of the site identifies mature trees on the site. If significant trees (greater than 6-inch caliper or 8-caliper inches for alders and cottonwoods) are proposed to be removed, a tree inventory and a tree retention plan along with an arborist report, tree retention plan and tree retention worksheet shall be provided with the formal land use application as defined in RMC 4-8-120. The tree retention plan must show preservation of at least 30% of significant trees. The Administrator may authorize the planting of replacement trees on the site if it can be demonstrated to the Administrator's satisfaction that an insufficient number of trees can be retained. Please refer to Tree Retention and Land Clearing Regulations RMC 4-4-130 for further general and specific tree retention and land clearing requirements. Significant trees shall be retained in the following priority order: Priority One: Landmark trees; significant trees that form a continuous canopy; significant trees on slopes greater than twenty percent (20%); Significant trees adjacent to critical areas and their associated buffers; and Significant trees over sixty feet (60') in height or greater than eighteen inches (18") caliper. Renton Regional Fire Authority Station 16, PRE21-000442 Page 4 of 6 January 6, 2022 Priority Two: Healthy tree groupings whose associated undergrowth can be preserved; Other significant native evergreen or deciduous trees; and Other significant non- native trees. Priority Three: Alders and cottonwoods shall be retained when all other trees have been evaluated for retention and are not able to be retained, unless the alders and/ or cottonwoods are used as part of an approved enhancement project within a critical area or its buffer. The Administrator may require independent review of any land use application that involves tree removal and land clearing at the City's discretion. If staff determines that the trees cannot be retained, replacement trees, with at least a 2-inch caliper or an evergreen at least 6 feet tall, shall be planted at a rate of 12 caliper inches of new trees to replace each protected tree removed. Trees located within public rights-of-way and shared driveways do not count towards tree retention standards. A formal tree retention plan prepared by an arborist or landscape architect would be reviewed at the time of Land Use Application review. Fences/Walls: If the applicant intends to install any fences or retaining walls as part of this project, the location must be designated on the landscape plan and grading plan with top of wall and bottom of wall elevations. A fence and/or wall detail should also be included on the plan. A retaining wall that is 4 feet or taller, as measured by the vertical distance from the bottom of the footing to the finish grade at the top of the wall requires a building permit. The maximum height of any fence or retaining wall is 72-inches subject to further height limitations in setbacks and clear vision areas noted in RMC 4-4-040D. A fence shall not be constructed on top of a retaining wall unless the total combined height of the retaining wall and the fence does not exceed the allowed height of a standalone fence. For more information about fences and retaining walls refer to RMC 4-4-040. Critical Areas: According to COR Maps, there are no critical areas mapped on the property. Environmental Review: As the proposal is greater than 4,000 square feet in size, Environmental Review is required. Lot Line Adjustment: To move the lot lines to complete a land swap a Lot Line Adjustment is required. A Lot Line Adjustment will be required to meet the regulations in RMC 4-7-060 Detailed Procedures for Lot Line Adjustments and RMC 4-70170 Residential Lots – General Requirements and Minimum Standards. If a new lot is proposed, then a short plat subdivision would be required; a short plat would be required to meet the applicable regulations in RMC 4-7 Subdivision Regulations. As proposed for this pre-application the proposal appears to be meeting requirements for a Lot Line Adjustment. Conditional Use Permits: For projects requiring a public hearing, the Hearing Examiner shall take action in accordance with the procedures of RMC 4-8-100, Application and Decision – General, as it exists or may be amended. A Site Plan Review will also be required to determine height. Conditional Use (Hearing): A conditional use is a land use which may be permitted within a zoning district following review by staff to establish conditions mitigating impacts of the use and to assure compatibility with other uses in the district. Staff will consider the following criteria when reviewing a request for a conditional use permit: Renton Regional Fire Authority Station 16, PRE21-000442 Page 5 of 6 January 6, 2022 1. Consistency with Plans and Regulations: The proposed use shall be compatible with the general goals, objectives, policies and standards of the Comprehensive Plan, the zoning regulations and any other plans, programs, maps or ordinances of the City of Renton. 2. Appropriate Location: The proposed location shall not result in the detrimental overconcentration of a particular use within the City or within the immediate area of the proposed use. The proposed location shall be suited for the proposed use. 3. Effect on Adjacent Properties: The proposed use at the proposed location shall not result in substantial or undue adverse effects on adjacent property. 4.
