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
1. Water service will be provided by Water District #90. A water availability certificate will be required to be submitted to the City with the site plan application.
Sanitary Sewer
1. Sewer service will be provided by City of Renton. There is an 8-inch sewer main in SE 2nd Place.
2. System development fees for sewer are based on the size of the new domestic waters to serve the new homes on the new lots. Sewer fee for a ¾- inch water meter is $1,591.00. Sewer
fee for a 1-inch water meter is $3,977.00. An “approved” water plan from Water District #90 will be required to be submitted to the City.
3. This parcel falls within the assessment area known as the East Renton Special Assessment District. The fee is $316.80 per lot. Payment of this fee will be required prior to issuance
of utility construction permit.
Storm Drainage
1. There are storm drainage improvements in SE 2nd Place.
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, Chapter 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 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.
4. A Construction Stormwater Permit from Department of Ecology is required if clearing and grading of the site exceeds one acre.
5. Surface Water System Development fees are $1,012 per each lot. This is payable prior to issuance of the construction permit.
Transportation/Street
1. Existing right of way width along the project side in SE 2nd Place is 60 feet. This street has been identified as a residential access street. To meet the City’s new complete street
standards, street improvements fronting this site will include a pavement width of 26 feet, an 8-foot planter strip, 5-foot sidewalk, curb and gutter. There are existing street improvements
adjacent to the property to the west and across the street to the south. Applicant may request a modification to the new street standards and request to match and extend the existing
improvements across the frontage. Request will need to be made in writing to the Director of Development Services.
2. Street lighting is not required.
3. Current traffic mitigation fees are $717.75 per new single-family lot. These fees are payable prior to recording of the plat. A fee increase is anticipated in 2014.
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 and 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 plat.
