NOTE: The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary is preliminary and non-binding and may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official city decision-makers.
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.
I have completed a preliminary review for the above-referenced proposal. The following comments are based on the pre-application submittal made to the City of Renton by the applicant.
Water
Water Service provider will be Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. A water availability certificate will be required to be submitted to the City.
Sanitary Sewer
Sewer Service provider will be Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. A sewer availability certificate will be required to be submitted to the City.
Storm Drainage
1. There is no storm conveyance system in 108th Ave SE.
2. A drainage plan and drainage report will be required with the site plan application. The report shall comply with the 2009 King County Surface Water Manual and the 2009 City of Renton
Amendments to the KCSWM, Chapters 1 and 2. All core and any special requirements shall be contained in the report. Based on the City’s flow control map, this site falls within the
Flow Control Duration Standard, Forested Conditions. The drainage report will need to follow the area specific flow control requirements under Core Requirement #3.
3. A covenant for flow control BMPs will be required.
4. A geotechnical report for the site is required. Information on the water table and soil permeability, with recommendations of appropriate flow control BMP options with typical designs
for the site from the geotechnical engineer, shall be submitted with the application.
5. A Construction Stormwater Permit from the Department of Ecology is required if clearing and grading of the site exceeds one acre.
6. Surface Water System Development fees are based on a rate of $.405 times the square foot of new impervious surface area. This is payable prior to issuance of the construction permit.
Credit will be given for existing impervious.
Transportation/Street
1. Existing right-of-way width in this section of 108th Ave SE appears to be 84 feet. This street has been identified as a minor arterial. To meet the City’s new complete street standards,
street improvements including 22 feet of paving from centerline, curb and gutter, 8-foot planter strip, 8-foot sidewalk, and storm drainage improvements are required to be constructed
in the right-of-way fronting the site per City code 4-6-060. There appears to be adequate right-of-way to build improvements fronting the site in 108th Ave SE.
2. A brief traffic analysis is required at site plan application. The analysis must include a discussion regarding traffic circulation to and from the site and should discuss onsite
traffic circulation, including the proposed drive through. The study must provide trip generation and trip distribution for the project for both AM and PM peak hours. The existing curb
cuts at this site should be evaluated to determine what, if any, impacts the additional trips have at these locations. General traffic analysis guidelines are attached.
3. Traffic mitigation fees of $75.00 per new additional daily trips will be assessed as identified in the current ITE manual.
4. A minimum of a 26-foot private access road is required. Pavement width will be 20 feet. A turnaround approved by the Fire Department may be required.
4. Street lighting along the frontage is required; however existing luminaires may meet the lighting level standards. A final determination will need to be made prior to site plan
review. If required, lighting shall be installed per city standard.
General Comments
1. All construction utility permits for drainage and street improvements will require separate plan submittals. All utility plans shall conform to the Renton Drafting Standards. Plans
shall be prepared by a licensed Civil Engineer.
When the utility plans are complete, please submit three (3) copies of the drawings, two (2) copies of the drainage report, permit application, an itemized cost of construction estimate,
and application fee at the counter on the sixth floor.
All subdivisions shall provide water, sewer, and storm stubs to each new lot prior to recording of the short plat.
