M E M O R A N D U M
DATE: February 9, 2017
T0: Pre -application File No. 17-000025
FROM: Matthew Herrera, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Teng Short Plat
General: We have completed a preliminary review of the pre -application for the referenced development 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, Development Services 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 for purchase for $50.00 plus tax from the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall
or online at www.rentanwa.gov,
Project Proposal: The subject property is addressed at 12727 SE Petrovltsky Rd (APN 073900-
0085) and located on the south side of SE Petrovltsky Rd, at the intersection of 128th Ave SE. The
southern property line abuts an unimproved 30400t wide right-of-way that extends from SE
1761h St. The project site totals 48,787 square feet (1.12 acres) in area and is zoned Residential-4
(114). The proposal is to subdivide the project site Into four (4) single family lots and construct
new single family dwellings on each lot. Access to the proposed lots is a private access easement
extending north from SE 1761h Street. City of Renton Maps identify an offsite wetland and
special flood hazard area approximately 170-feet southwest from the subject property.
Current Use: The King County Assessor's Office indicates the property as vacant. Aerial views
show a shed or garage type structure and parked vehicles.
Zoning: The property Is located within a Comprehensive Plan land use designation of Residential
Low Density (RLD) and is zoned Residential 4 (R-4). The R-4 designation serves as a transition
between rural designation zones and higher density residential zones. It is intended as an
intermediate lower density residential zone.
Density Requirements: There Is no minimum density requirement. The maximum density
permitted in the R-4 zone Is 4.0 dwelling units per net acre (du/ac). Net density is calculated
after the deduction of areas required for public right-of-way dedication, shared driveway tract,
and critical areas from the gross site area.
PRE17-OOOo25 - (R-4 Tang 4 Lot Short Plat)
The gross density was calculated to be 3.57 du/ac (4 units / 1.12 acres = 3.57 du/ac). It is
unclear exactly how much area would be required to be dedicated for right-of-way for the
half -street improvements and frontage dedication or whether there are critical areas onsite;
therefore, the net density of site could not be calculated. A Density Worksheet would be
required at the time of formal short plat application. The applicant would be required to
demonstrate compliance with the net density requirements of the zone at the time of formal
application.
Development Standards: The project is 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 Is 9,000 square
feet. A minimum lot width of 70 feet is required for interior lots and 80 feet for corner lots. A lot
depth of 100 feet is required. it Is the applicant's responsibility to demonstrate compliance
with the minimum lot size, width and depth criteria of the zone at the time of formal
application.
Building Setbacks — Setbacks are the minimum required distance between the building footprint
and the property line and any private access easement. The required setbacks in the R-4 zone
are 30 feet for the front yard, 25 feet for the rear yards, side yards along -a -street would be
required to have a 30 foot setb ck, and interior side yards are required to have a combined 20-
foot setback with not less than 7.5 feet on either side. The setbacks for the new residences
would be reviewed at the time of building permit.
Building Height — The maximum wall plate height is 32 feet with 3 stories. Roofs with a pitch
equal to or greater than 4:12 may project an additional six (6) vertical feet from the maximum
wall plate height; common rooftop features, such as chimneys, may project an additional four
(4) vertical feet from the roof surface. Non-exempt vertical projections (e.g., decks, railings, etc.)
shall not extend above the maximum wall plate height unless the projection is stepped back
one -and -a -half (1.5) horizontal feet from each fayade for each one (1) vertical foot above the
maximum wall plate height. Building height would be verified at the time of building permit
review.
Building Coverage — R-4 zone allows a maximum building coverage of 35% of the lot area.
Building coverage requirements would be verified at the time of building permit review.
Impervious Surface Area — The maximum impervious surface would be limited to 50%.
impervious surface requirements would be verified at the time of building permit review.
Residential Design and Open Space Standards: All single family residences would be subject to
the Residential Design Standards outlined in RMC 4-2-115, Residential Design Review occurs as
part of the Building Permit Review.
landscaping: The development standards require that all pervious areas within the property
boundaries be landscaped. Therefore, all areas of the site not covered by structures, required
parking, access, circulation or patios, must be landscaped with native, drought -resistant
vegetative cover. Ten feet (10') of on -site landscaping is required along all public street
frontages, with the exception of areas for required walkways and driveways. Street trees in the
ROW planter will also be required. Any additional undeveloped right-of-way areas shall be
landscaped
PRE17-000025 - (R-4 Tang 4 Lot Short Plat)
Please refer to landscape regulations (RMC 4-4-070) for further general and specific landscape
requirements. A conceptual landscape plan would be required at the time of formal land use
application.
Significant Tree Retention: If significant trees (greater than 6-inch caliper or 8-caliper inches for
alders and cottonwoods) are proposed to be removed, a tree inventory, tree retention plan, and
arborist report 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, and indicate
how proposed building footprints would be sited to accommodate preservation of significant
trees that would be retained (RMC 44-130111.a). When the required number of protected trees
cannot be retained, replacement trees, with at least a two-inch (2") caliper or an evergreen at
least six feet (6') tall, shall be planted at a rate of twelve (12) caliper inches of new trees to
replace each protected tree removed. 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.
In addition to retaining 30 percent of existing significant trees, each new lot would be required
to provide a minimum tree density of 2 trees per 5,000 square feet of lot area onsite.
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 per ent (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.
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. A formal tree retention plan would be
reviewed at the time of Short Plat application.
Fences/Retaining Walls: If the applicant intends to install any fences as part of this project, the
location must be designated on the landscape plan. A wall taller than four feet requires a
building. Fences up to six -feet in height are permitted in the rear yard and side yard; fences up
to four feet are permitted in the front yard. Any part of a yard that is within a clear vision area
has a limited fence height of 42-inchese. 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. New or existing fencing would need to comply with the
fence requirements of the code (RMC 4-4-040).
Retaining walls shall be composed of brick, rock, textured or patterned concrete, or other
masonry product that complements the proposed building and site development. There shall be
a minimum three-foot (3') landscaped setback at the base of retaining walls abutting public
rights -of -way. Please refer to retaining wall standards (RMC 44-040) for additional information
about fences and retaining walls.
Access: The proposal shows a 20-foot wide paved private access easement extending north
from the SE 1761h Street. The applicant has also inquired about gaining access from SE
Petrovitsky for the northernmost lot (Lot 4). SE Petrovitsky Rd. is identified as a principal
PRE17-000025 - (R-4 Tang 4 Lo[ Short Plat)
arterial and therefore new single lot access would not be permitted as access can be provided
vla SE 176th St,
The City does not allow private access easements far residential subdivisions and allows
shared driveway tracts In limited circumstances (see RMC 4-6-060J). Access to the proposed
subdivlslon should be via a new public residential access street constructed to half -street
standards as the proposal likely does not meet approval criteria for shared driveway,
specifically RMC 4-6-060J.I.c which allows a shared driveway if a public street is not
anticipated by the City to be necessary for existing or future traffic and/ar pedestrian
circulation through the short subdivision or to serve adjacent property. Adjacent properties to
the west are currently underdeveloped and constructing public streets instead numerous
shared driveways extending from SE 176th Street is appropriate.
Driveways: The maximum driveway slopes cannot exceed 15%. If the grade exceeds 154/0, a
variance is required. Driveways exceeding 8-percent shall provide slotted drains at the lower
end with positive drainage discharge to restrict runoff from entering the garage/residence or
crossing any public sidewalk. The maximum width of single loaded garage driveways shall not
exceed 9 feet and double loaded garage driveways shall not exceed 16 feet. Each lot is required
to accommodate off street parking for a minimum of two vehicles.
Critical Areas: The City's COR mapping system has identified a potential wetland in the vicinity A
wetland reconnaissance would be required to determine if there aile wetlands within 200-feet
of the site. If wetlands are determined to be located on or near the subject site, a wetland
assessment and delineation would also be required. Secondary review of any of the studies
provided to the City may be required at the applicant's expense.
/t is the applicant's responsibility to ascertain whether any additlonai critical areas or
environmental concerns are present on the site during development or building construction.
Environmental Review: Short Plats of 9 or fewer lots are categorically exempt from State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Review per WAC 197-11. However, if critical areas are found, an
environmental checklist and threshold determination will be required.
Permit Requirements: The proposed subdivision would require administrative short plat
approval. The preliminary short plat application would be processed within an estimated time
frame of 6-8 weeks. The short plat fee would be $5,150 ($5,000 Short Plat fee + $150,00 3
percent technology fee = $5,150). A SEPA checklist fee of $1,500.00 plus 3-percent technology
fee will apply if the environmental review is required. Detailed information regarding the land
use application submittal items have been provided In the attached handouts or are also
avallable online.
The applicant will be required to install a public information sign on the property. Once
Preliminary Short Plat approval is obtained, the applicant must complete the required
Improvements and dedications, as well as satisfy any conditions of the preliminary approval
before submitting for Final Short Plat review. Once final approval is received, the plat may be
recorded. The newly created lots may only be sold after the plat has been recorded.
Fees: In addition to the applicable building and construction fees, impact fees would be required
for new single family homes. Such fees would apply to all projects and would be calculated at
the time of building permit application and payable prior to building permit issuance, The 2017
application fees are as follows:
• A Transportation Impact Fee based on $5,430.85 per each new single family residence;
• A Parks Impact Fee based on $2,740.07 per each new single family residence;
PRE17-000025 - (R--0 Tang 4 Lot Short Plat)
• A Fire Impact fee of $718.56 per each new single family residence; and
• Renton School District Impact Fee is $6,432.00 per each new single family residence.
A handout listing Renton development -related fees is available on the City of Renton website
for your review.
Note: When the formal application materials are complete, the applicant is strongly
encouraged to have one copy of the application materials pre-screened at the 6th floor front
counter prior to submitting the complete application package. Please call Matthew Herrera,
Senior Planner at 425430-6593 for an appointment.
Expiration: Upon approval, the short plat is valid for two (2) years with a possible one (1) year
