SPECIAL PRESENTATION Carol Hunter, Transportation Planner with the Washington State Department of
WSDOT: SR-167 Corridor Transportation (WSDOT) gave a briefing on the SR-167 corridor analysis
Improvements requested by South King County elected officials for inclusion on the Regional
Transportation Improvements District (RTID) ballot measure. Ms. Hunter
explained that the study area is from I-405 to I-5, and the project area is from S.
180th St. to the King/Pierce County line for initial project funding under RTID.
She stated that WSDOT has four months to develop a range of options that can
be advanced into an environmental process; to select an initial project
definition for RTID; to develop a cost estimate and cost estimating evaluation
process; and to analyze the potential for a High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lane
conversion.
Ms. Hunter reviewed the evaluation criteria used, which included moving more
people, reducing congestion, saving time, and improving safety. She also
reviewed the four improvement options and explained how Option 4 - ten lanes
with managed lanes - was selected as the preferred option. Ms. Hunter reported
that the preliminary cost estimates for all options can be phased or constructed
within the $650 million South King County budget. In conclusion, she detailed
the next steps in the process, which includes submitting the project definition to
RTID for its August, 2003 draft outreach plan. She indicated that this analysis
will become part of the SR-167 environmental review process that is scheduled
to receive $9.6 million in funding in 2005-2007 from the recently adopted five -
cent gas tax increase.
Responding to Mayor Tanner's inquiry, Ms. Hunter confirmed that the SR-167
planning group is coordinating with the I-405 planning group (who is
responsible for SR-167 down to S. 180th St.) so that the two projects are
compatible and result in the same number of lanes.
In response to Councilman Parker's inquiries, Ms. Hunter defined TDM
(Transportation Demand Management) as a program where people are
encouraged to look for alternative modes of transportation rather than driving
alone. She indicated that construction of the SR-167 improvements could start
in 2014.
July 21, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 252
Michael. Cummings, WSDOT Corridor Planning Manager, briefed Council on
High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes and the potential implementation of HOT
lanes on SR-167. Mr. Cummings explained that High Occupancy Vehicle
(HOV) lanes need to be used in a more efficient manner, and WSDOT is
reviewing changes to the use of HOV lanes including HOT lane
implementation. He described HOT lanes as separated lanes dedicated to
specific user groups (carpools and transit) and the "extra" capacity is sold to.
other users. The fees are set to maintain the free -flow conditions of the lane for
users.
Stating that San Diego, California currently uses HOT lanes (known as
FasTrak) on an eight -mile stretch of I-15, Mr. Cummings reported an 88%
approval rating of the FasTrak program by FasTrak customers, and a 66%
approval rating by other I-15 users. He explained that candidate roadway
segments for HOT lane implementation must meet the following primary
requirements: congestion in the peak direction, available HOV lane capacity,
and available space to make the needed improvements. Mr. Cummings stated
that SR-167 meets the primary requirements for HOT lane implementation and
a feasibility study is being conducted. WSDOT's recommendations and final
report will be presented to the State's Transportation Commission by the end of
this year.
In response to Mayor and Council inquiries, Mr. Cummings explained how the
HOT lane usage would be enforced, and he commented that the HOT lanes can
likely be implemented within the existing footprint of SR-167. He indicated
that the Mayors of Kent and Auburn support going forward with the feasibility
study.
ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City'.s recent progress towards goals and work

MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY CORMAN,
COUNCIL APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA AS AMENDED TO
REMOVE ITEMS 6.e. AND 6.q. FOR SEPARATE CONSIDERATION.
CARRIED.
Separate Consideration
City Clerk reported bid opening on 6/25/2003 for CAG-03-069, 2003 Overlay;
Item 6.e.
five bids; engineer's estimate $577,269.50; and submitted staff recommendation
CAG: 03-069, 2003 Overlay,
to award the contract to low bidder, Lakeside Industries, in the amount of
Lakeside Industries
$714,270.26 (budgeted amount $523,740). Staff also recommended that
$96,000 be transferred from the Oakesdale Phase 2 project, and $104,000 be
transferred from the Benson Rd. S./S.31st St. signal installation project to cover
the additional costs.
Transportation Systems Director Sandra Meyer stated that the 2003 Overlay
project bids exceeded the project estimate due to higher than anticipated
asphalt, traffic control, mobilization, finish and clean-up costs. She indicated
that since the contractor is not available in September, the item was listed as
Council concur rather than referral to Transportation Committee because the
work needs to be completed in August.
Ms. Meyer explained that to ensure there are adequate funds to cover the
overlay project costs, $200,000 must be reallocated from other projects listed in
the Transportation Division's 2003 appropriated budget of approximately $7.6
million. Additional funding for this project can be transferred from the
Oakesdale Phase 2 project which has been completed, and from the City's share
of the new signal to be installed by King County at the Benson Rd. S./S. 31st
St. intersection for which payment to King County would be deferred until
2004.
Responding to Council President Keolker-Wheeler's inquiry as to why an
additional $10,000 above the bid award amount was requested, Chief
Administrative Officer Jay Covington explained that the budget amounts for all
these projects include the design, and in some case project management costs,
as well as the actual bid award. Thus the bid award is almost always below the
July 21, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 255
actual appropriation because of the soft costs included in the project. Ms.
Keolker-Wheeler requested that a detailed explanation be forwarded to her
regarding how the additional $10,000 will be used.
Discussion ensued regarding the project cost estimate, the project budget, the
higher than anticipated costs for the project, and the project timeframe.
MOVED BY PERSSON, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL APPROVE
CONSENT AGENDA ITEM 6.e. AS PRESENTED. CARRIED.
Separate Consideration
Transportation Systems Division recommended approval of a supplement to
Item 6.Q.
CAG-01-071, agreement with Perteet Engineering, Inc., for additional
CAG: 01-071, Maple Valley
engineering services in the amount of $121,884 for the Maple Valley Hwy.
Hwy HOV, Perteet
(SR-169) HOV, 140th Way SE to SR-900 project. Approval was also sought to
Engineering
transfer $122,000 from the SW 27th St./Strander Blvd. project to cover the
additional costs.
Sandra Meyer, Transportation Systems Director, explained that as the
preliminary design has progressed, conditions have changed necessitating
additional work outside the initial scope of the project. The project limits have
increased in the vicinity of I-405 requiring a considerable amount of field
surveys, base maps, engineering work, and design plans that were not scoped.
She indicated that the transfer of $122,000 from the SW 27th St./Strander Blvd.
project will cover the additional costs. The Strander Blvd. project is estimated
to spend $400,000 of its $1,610,000 appropriation in 2003, and staff will
restore the Strander appropriation in 2004 with 2004 revenues from the per
capita business license fee.
Responding to Mayor Tanner's concern that funds dedicated only for the
Strander Blvd. project are being borrowed for this project, Ms. Meyer assured
that the $1 million of dedicated funds for the Strander Blvd. project will not be
touched.

HOV Lane Performance
During Peak periods:
• Provide a travel time
advantage in all corridors.
• in most corridors, move more
people than the adjacent
general purpose lane
• Starting to be congested
(failing) in key locations.
During off-peak periods:
• Show a sharp decrease in
volumes
• Creates an empty lane
syndrome.
-Bottom line: HOV lanes need to be used in a more efficient
manner than they are today.
1
Commission Request
• Transportation Commission has asked
WSDOT to look at changes to the HOV
lane use including the potential
implementation of High Occupancy Toll
(HOT) lanes.
What are High Occupancy Toll
(HOT) lanes?
• Separated Lane(s) specifically dedicated to specific user groups
(Carpools 2+, 3+, ...Transit)
• "Extra" capacity is sold to other users
• Fees are set to maintain near free -flow conditions for users
• Provides benefits to all roadway users

STAFF CONTACT: JasoXTritzler, Project Manager x7243
SUBJECT: Logan Avenue Bridge Seismic Retrofit
As part of the City's effort to upgrade all of its existing structures to better withstand
seismic events, it has identified the Logan Avenue Bridge over the Cedar River as a
candidate for a phase 1 seismic retrofit. This project will construct longitudinal and
transverse restrainers to be fitted to the bridge to limit the movement of the bridge span in
the event of an earthquake.
The Logan Avenue Bridge Seismic Retrofit Project (Project #12201) is ranked number 15
in the 2003-2008 TIP and currently has $200,000 allocated. The lowest bid submitted by
Advanced Construction fell well within the projects budget at $84,864 and under the
engineer's estimate of $121,000.
The Transportation Design Section would like to recommend that the contract be
awarded to Advanced Construction. Additionally, we also recommend that the Agenda
Bill outlining this project go Council Concur since the low bid is within budget, there
were four bids submitted, and there were no irregularities in the low bid.

CONCLUSIONS (cont'd.)
No. 2 Error: Nothing compels City to reclassify.
Correction: Since request satisfies all decisions criteria, city code compels rezone.
No. 3 Error: Creek and ravine serve as buffer or transition. R-8 is generally on one side of the
ravine and creek and R-1 on the other.
Correction: R-8 in on both sides of the ravine, and it cannot serve as buffer. R-5 would
provide buffer between R-8 and R-1.
No. 4 Error: Nothing in GMA compels city to rezone the property.
Correction: GMA compels urban density and R-1 does not provide urban density, but R-
5 does.
No. 5 Error: R-1 zone complements the Griffin Home property and slope will be protected
without native growth protection easement proposed by request.
Correction: Griffin Home is surrounded by R-8 and multifamily zoning, so R-1 not
needed to "complement" it. Development on north side of creek, in area of R-8 zoning, right
down to creek banks, shows that further protection needed.
No. 7 Error: Site would lose rural character under R-5. Ravine would be better served by less
development.
Correction: City has already approved R-5 as appropriate for residential rural
comprehensive plan designation. Ravine already has R-8 zone on both sides, and requested
rezone will not affect the ravine.
No. 8 Error: Existing zoning provides reasonable return.
Correction: Existing large lot zone is not reasonable or fair to property owner when all
other properties on three sides of the site are zoned R-8.
No. 9 Error: Additional development increases noise and traffic.
Correction: Increase in noise and traffic not "materially detrimental", as established by
environmental determination of non -significance. For. less impact than surrounding R-8 zones.
File No. LUA01-034, PP,R,ECF
Application Name: LABRADOR VENTURES, LLC
CONCLUSIONS (cont'd.)
No. 13 Error: Repeats many errors set forth above. In addition, states that change in area were
anticipated.
Correction: See corrections noted above. Claim that changes were anticipated
inconsistent with conclusion 12 that there have been substantial changes since last area zoning.

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Jennifer Henning, Principal Planner, Development Services,
City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The applicant is proposing to rezone an.approximately
4.5-acre site from R-1 to R-5. Concurrently the applicant is proposing a preliminary plat to separate the parcel into 15
single-family lots. There are two existing single-family structures on the site. There is an existing public roadway that
bisects the site. It was the subject of a previous rezone application back in 1999 that was denied at the time.
This rezone is permitted within the umbrella of the Comprehensive Plan Designation of Rural Residential. In considering
the rezone request, staff looks at whether or not the rezone is in the public interest. The applicant has contended that the
proposed rezone would allow for development of new housing and would be at densities compatible with the neighborhood.
There has been a significant amount of public comment from neighbors and concerned citizens with regard to the rezone.
The comments did express opposition for the upzoning of the property. They primarily cited traffic and drainage problems
that they believe could be aggravated. The drainage problems referred to were based on the recent development of Clover
Creek I.
The subject site is surrounded by R-8, which allows up to eight dwelling units per acre. R-8 is to the north and partially to
the west. There is R-1 to the west and to the south and R-8 generally to the east.
The property owners who reside in the vicinity have commented on the rezone. Many have mentioned that they believe
that their property values might be affected negatively if the rezone was granted because the current spacious and private
character of the neighborhood might be affected if a higher density zone is allowed to be placed on the proposed site.
Although the intensification of the residential density in the area would assist the City in accomplishing goals of housing
and infill development, the City is not obligated to grant these upzones in order to accomplishment density projections.
Additional criteria considered is whether the upzone tends to further the preservation and enjoyment of any substantial
rights of the petitioner. The applicant is maintaining that the use of the property in a manner consistent with surrounding
properties would further the preservation and enjoyment of his property rights. The majority of lots in the vicinity of the
subject site are either equal to or smaller then lots in the proposed subdivision. The applicant is contending that the projects
avoidance of sensitive areas where there are environmental constraints does further justify the development of the property.
Another criteria considered is whether the rezone is materially detrimental to the public welfare or other properties or
persons located in the vicinity of it. The applicant has stated that the rezone is not materially detrimental to the public
welfare. It would assist in carrying out policies of the growth management act; however, comments have been received
from neighbors opposing the rezone because they believe it would increase traffic and drainage problems in the area.
Whether or not the property is potentially classified in the zone being requested pursuant to policies in the Comprehensive
Plan is another criteria considered. The subject site is classified Rural Residential under the Comprehensive Plan. Both the
zone it is currently, R-1 and the proposed R-5 are permitted. The subject site is.also designated on the City's Critical Areas
Maps, which includes slopes, erosion and landslide. There is a creek located partially on the property and partially off,
called Kennydale Creek. There is a Category 2 wetland about 7,000 square feet in size. A portion of the north property
does contain steep slopes. Generally, the property is vegetated with grasses and low-lying vegetation. The wetland area is
partially on and partially off the site. Kennydale Creek runs through a ravine and slopes leading down to the ravine are
present on the subject site.
The lots would range in size from 7,200 to 24,000 square feet. Comprehensive Plan Policy LU-26 states the maximum
density should range from one home per 10 acres to 5 homes per acre in the rural residential designation except where there
are significant environmental constraints. It appears that the requested rezone is consistent with this; however the retention
of the R-1 zone would also be consistent with this policy.
In 1995, the Council created the R-5 zone. Because the R-5 zone did not exist in 1993, the last time this site was rezoned, it
was not considered for this site or any other in the City.
Ms. Henning stated that the proposal is for a subdivision of a 4.43-acre site. Fifteen single-family lots are being proposed.
There are two existing homes on the site, which will remain. The proposed plat would have a density of 4.6 dwelling units

per acre. There are steep slopes at the north side of the property and there are erosion and landslide critical areas that have
been mapped and are located immediately south of Kennydale Creek as is the Category 2 wetland. As part of the
applicant's proposal and staff s recommendation, is the creation of a native growth protection easement which is basically a
no touch zone. The homeowner's will maintain the split rail fence.
There are existing storm drainage facilities that were designed for the Labrador/Clover Creek I development to the west that
would be utilized in conjunction with the platting if it were to be approved. Additional improvements would consist of the
construction of the new cul-de-sac. Water and sanitary sewer facilities would be extended from the existing improvements
on the west side.
The proposal was subject to environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act and the Environmental
Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official, conducted an environmental review. They asked the applicant to
go back and accomplish some additional geotech studies and soil sampling and borings. The ERC issued a determination
of non -significance mitigated (DNS-M). There were 20 mitigation measures placed on the property designed to eliminate
or diminish and significant environmental impacts. There were no appeals filed.
The ERC's mitigation measures were primarily with regard to erosion control and drainage. There are 15 conditions
associated with the erosion control, drainage and construction. The remaining five conditions have to do with payment of
mitigation fees. In regard to geotech measures, the ERC stated that the applicant should comply with recommendations of
the geotechnical engineer and retain six trees proposed for removal. There are temporary erosion control measures required
by the Environmental Review Committee which include having a qualified geotech engineer present to observe installation
of all the erosion and sedimentation control measures, weekly reports need to be provided to the City's inspection group
and the geotech needs to make periodic visits to the site. The applicant needs to identify the project clearing limits and
those must be clearly identified on the map and the ground. They are subject to the 1990 King Surface Water Design
Manual.
There are criteria in the Code that staff must look at in regard to the preliminary plat proposal. The subject site is
designated R-1. If the rezone to R-5 is approved the plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan designation. If the plat
is not approved the R-1 would prevail and a maximum of four residential parcels could be developed without exceeding the
maximum density of the R-1 zone.
The proposed plat meets all lot dimensions and setback standards for the R-5 zone. The access for proposed lot 5 would be
via a driveway across proposed lot 6 and staff is asking that it be defined as an easement if the glat is approved. All the
other proposed lots are accessed off the public road. Proposed lot 15 has frontage on North 26 Street, as do proposed lots
12 and 13. Proposed lot 14 is a pipestem that comes out to North 26"' Street. Proposed lot 14 does not appear to provide
appropriate front yard setback when the pipestem portion of the lot is excluded. This would need to be addressed prior to
approval of any final plat drawing. In the R-5 zone the minimum front yard setback. is 15 feet for the primary structure and
20 feet for attached garages.
The ERC has required a minimum building setback of 15 feet along the protected slope portions of the property. This
applies to proposed lot I thru 5 on the north portion of the property.
Under the City's street standards there must be a minimum inside radius of 45 feet and a minimum right-of-way radius of
55 feet as well as curb, gutter, sidewalk. This proposal meets all of those Code requirements. Proposed lot 5 has a
secondary access that has been in place via an easement for many years. It comes from the north down a driveway. The
driveway easement also goes through proposed lots 6 and 7 because it serves a property not associated with this
development, the Scott property. Staff is requiring that this easement and access be maintained. The primary access to
proposed lot 5 would be through proposed lot 6 and would be a shared access easement.
Staff is recommending that the applicant have a homeowner's association or maintenance agreement established for any
private driveways that are shared as well as shared utilities.

There are concerns from residents in the area who have been impacted by construction vehicles during the construction of
Clover Creek I, which is why the ERC required the applicant to limit construction vehicles to use North 27°i Place and
Burnett Avenue North. There was a traffic report prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest in 1998 to access the
rezone if it were approved at that point in time. The report did conclude that the construction of the Clover Creek
subdivision would result in small increases in traffic volume that would result in small overall delays. Three intersections
were studied. They would still continue to operate at level of service, A which is the best with one exception, which is
operating at level B and would continue to operate at level B.
The borings that were conducted concluded that lots 1 thru 5 are stable with respect to deep seeded earth movements and
the 15-foot setback from the top of the slope as recommended is adequate.
Fire and police have indicated that they do have adequate resources to provide service if this plat and rezone is approved
provided that the mitigation fees are paid.
There is no onsite recreation offered, the City prefers that the applicant pay a fee to offset impact to existing parks and
recreation facilities.
This proposed plat would generate about six students for the Renton School District. The School District does have the
ability to support additional students generated by the proposal.
The property is located in Aquifer Protection Area Zone Two. The drainage reports discuss how the surface water and
runoff would be handled. Surface water from the development will be directed to the recently built roadway and storm
drainage facility in Clover Creek I. The flow from the detention vault would restrict the outfall would discharge into an
open ditch along the northside of North 26`l' Street and the flow would eventually be directed into Kennydale Creek.
The wetland is located just above a small concrete dam on the property. It does have a lot of silt and has created wetland
conditions over time. There are existing water facilities in North 26'h Street and Park Avenue. Fire hydrants will need to be
installed within 300 feet of all structures. There is an existing sanitary sewer main in North 27`h Place and eight inch mains
in North 26'h and Park Avenue. The project will be required to design and construct a 15-inch sanitary main either along
the east property line in lot 44 of Clover Creek I or through lots I and 2 of the proposed Clover Creek 11.
If the rezone is approved, then staff will recommend that the preliminary plat be approved. If the Hearing Examiner
determines that the change in the zone classification is advisable and in the public interest tends to further the preservation
and enjoyment of any substantial property right of the petitioner, is not materially detrimental to the public welfare or the
properties of other persons located in the vicinity thereof and is in harmony with the purpose and effect the Comprehensive
Plan.
Ms. Henning stated that staff is proposing five conditions to the proposed plat. Establishing access easements necessary for
emergency access to proposed Lot 5, establishing access to Lot 5 a shared driveway for both lots 5 and 6 are the first two
conditions. Proposed condition 3 is to make sure that the development of lots 6 and 7 shall not preclude the use of the
easement along the east boundary. Condition 4 is to create a homeowner's association or maintenance agreement for the
common improvements and condition 5 is creation of the Native Growth Protection Area for all portions of the wetland
buffer and it should contain the protected slope area, the 25 foot stream setback, the 50 foot wetland buffer and it needs to
be recorded concurrently with the final plat, if approved.
Marleen Mandt, 1408 N. 26t' Street, Renton, WA 98056 stated that the report references the haul route to be on N. 27'b
Street. She is located on N. 26'h Street and there is currently hauling being done on N. 26fl' Street. There is damage to the
road caused by tractor blades going up and down the street. They are asking that the haul route be taken off of N. 26a'
Street because of the damage and safety concerns. She also asked that the easement route not be used for hauling.
She discussed drainage concerns. There is already a drainage problem and she is concerned with where the water will go
after these large homes are built and how it will impact water into the creek.

She also voiced concerns over the hours of operation and that they are clearly indicated in the report.
She voiced concerns over the number of trees that have already been removed and the number proposed to be removed. The
trees act as a buffer for the creek. She and the neighbors are concerned with preserving the creek.
She stated that she would like to see something put place to keep vehicles from parking on the bridge.
Joan Jensen, 2621 Meadow Place N., Renton, WA 98056 stated that her sewer clean out is on the access road so she does
not want to see that road closed. She mentioned that there was flooding on the new street and is concerned that with the
new development it will get worse.
James Morton, Bonneville, Viert, Morton & McGoldrick, 820 "A" Street, Suite 600, PO Box 1533, Tacoma, WA 98401
stated he can shed some light on why the rezone should be accepted, why it is in the best interest of the community, why it
is consistent with the Renton plans, and why the plat should be approved. He then reviewed his background and
qualifications.
He displayed an aerial photograph of the site, which shows that the area is already cleared and demonstrates that there is no
threat to Kennydale Creek. It is a crucial element to the development. The preservation of the area will be significantly
enhanced if the rezone and plat are approved. If the site remains R-1 and is developed into four lots he believes that there
will be much more significant intrusion. If the activity taking place on the side of the creek opposite the proposed
development took place on the proposed site the neighbors could go to the City and that activity could be stopped. The site
is predominantly surrounded by R-8. The tax parcels are more consistently R-5. In addition to the amenities the applicant
has provided in Clover Creek, there are many other significant changes in the vicinity. The most significant development is
the bridge. It was a considerable expense. The ability to preserve this area is significantly enhanced by the design of the
bridge. Clover Creek I is a neighborhood the City can be proud of. This proposed rezone and plat are very consistent with
the goals and objective of the Growth Management Plan. It is good for the community, tax base and neighborhood.
The actual construction that would take place in the plat is confined to the cul-de-sac itself because Park Avenue is
complete. There will not be a significant intrusion. The site is relatively flat and gently slopes away from the creek and the
steep slopes. If there is any pooling of water anywhere on the site, it will be resolved before the City signs off on final plat
approval.
The applicant is not objecting to any of the proposed conditions. The applicants are mindful of the sensitivity of the
neighborhood.
Brad Hughes, 2631 Park Avenue N, Renton, WA 98056 stated that he lives on lot 11 of the proposed plat. In regard to the
concern of emergency access to lot 5, he stated that the sole reason that a 25 foot shared access easement is being placed on
lot 6 is for Fire Department access.
Even with the imposed restrictions from the Environmental Review Committee (ERC) there is still substantial building pad
to develop a home that is proper for the area. The topography maps illustrate on lots 13, 14, and 15 takes into account some
temporary stockpiles of topsoil that are currently on this location of the property. They have been seeded and covered to
avoid erosion. They will be removed when approval of the final plat is received.
In regard to flooding on lot 11, he stated that that is his home and he knows nothing of any flooding. He goes into and out
of his driveway several times a day and he is not aware of any flooding. There are no drainage problems.
The property is surrounded by R-8 to the north, east and west. None of the tax parcels for the site conform to the R-I zone.
They are all smaller then one acre. He believes the only issue that needs to be examined is the rezone issue.
Matt Pool, 1317 N. 28'h Street, Renton, WA 98056 stated that he and his family live in the home on proposed lot 5. He is
also the builder for Clover Creek 1. As far as construction traffic, he can remember only twice in the entire year that they

used N. 26t' Street to bring rock and dirt in and out of the plat. It was truck and trailer, which is very difficult to turn
without a cul-de-sac. He feels they have been very good about working with the neighbors and addressing problems.
As far as storm water, the area is very sandy, there is no surface water problems the soil absorbs the water very nicely.
Jim Scott, 1405 N. 28'h Street, Renton, WA 98056 stated that the easement he uses for a driveway has been heavily
damaged from the trucks and bulldozers. He inquired as to who would be using the access beside himself and the other
neighbors who have been using it. He also had concerns about a homeowner's association maintaining the easement.
Ms. Henning replied that when she spoke of the homeowner's association maintaining the road she was not referring to the
easement in question.
Mr. Scott inquired about the sidewalks proposed for N. 20h Street. Along the new road, Mr. Hughes as put plantings along
the bank and believes that he indicated he would attend to the maintenance of the plantings but there has been no upkeep.
Ms. Henning replied that as part of Clover Creek I, N. 26a' Street was developed east and improvements were made along
Meadow Avenue N.
Mr. Hughes stated that the plantings were made at the request of the City on Mr. Scott's private property. They improved
the right-of-way and widened the street to City standards as requested and conditioned on Clover Creek I. As a concession
to appease Mr. Scott and the City they implemented a landscape plan. There was no condition made to maintain Mr.
Scott's private property.
Mr. Scott stated that he does not believe this area is his property.
Amy Buhrig, 1301 N. 26`h Street, Renton, WA 98056 stated that her first concern is traffic. In the 1998 study there was a
proposed road along the easement but it is not on the current plan. The previous study did not address N. 261` Street at all.
The revised study makes some assumptions about N. 26`b Street that she questions. She would like to know what the
resolution is for conflicting traffic data. She asked for clarification on how the R-5 zoning would better protect the creek.
Ms. Henning stated that it is a case -by -case basis. If a property owner wishes to build they must go through several steps to
determine whether or not they may build the structure they are planning to build.
Kayren Kittrick, Development Services, 1055 S. Grady Way, Renton, WA 98056 stated that there had been some
difficulties during construction with storm drainage but not during engineering construction. There was only one complaint
on the books.
In regard to the secondary access it allows the fire department to setup in the cul-de-sac to serve proposed Lot 5. It will be
marked as a fire lane.
Ms. Kittrick went over the two sets of hours of operations, the utility construction hours and the homebuilding construction
hours.
Ms. Kittrick stated that she received no complaints of flooding during the last big rain.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and no further
comments from staff. The hearing closed at 12:50 p.m.

The following minutes are a summary of the April 15, 2003 hearing.
The legal record is recorded on tape.
The hearing opened on Tuesday, April 15, 2003, at 9:02 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton
City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were re-entered into the record for use at today's hearing:

The hearing opened with a summary of the background information on the project to this point by Leslie Nishihira, Senior
Planner, Development Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The proposal is
requesting the rezone of the 4.43-acre site from R-1 to R-5. If the R-5 rezone is approved the property would be subdivided
into 15 single-family lots. The density for the property would arrive at 4.6 dwelling units per acre after the deduction of
critical areas and roadways. The sensitive and protected slope areas extend along the ravine on the northern portion of the
site. The creek that abuts the north side of that ravine is also considered a critical and sensitive area.

The proposal did go before the City's Environmental Review Committee on August 14, 2001, a determination of Non -
Significance — Mitigated was issued for the project. There were twenty mitigation measures, including temporary erosion
control during site preparation and building construction, limit construction vehicle traffic on N 27`h Place and Bumet
Avenue, comply with the geotechnical report for the project, some retention of trees within Lots 2, 3, & 4, and payment of
Parks, Traffic and Fire Mitigation Fees.
Pursuant to Rezone Criteria, Section 4-9-180 F.2, referring to rezones not requiring an amendment to the Comprehensive
Plan.
Criteria A, The Rezone is in the Public Interest. The applicant contends that the rezone would allow for the development of
quality new housing at densities compatible with the neighborhood and as contemplated by the Comprehensive Plan. There
was a significant amount of public comment from concerned citizens in the area, predominately those concerns expressed
opposition to the up -zoning of the property based on increased traffic and increased drainage problems that have been
aggravated by recent development, and the potential decrease in property values as a result of reducing the currently
spacious and private character of the neighborhood. The subject open area is private property with the potential for
development. The intensification of the residential density in the area would assist the City in accomplishing goals of infill
development. When determining whether the proposed rezone is in the public interest, issues previously analyzed when
adopting a Comprehensive Plan must be considered in conjunction with the concerns raised by the residents of the area.
Criteria B, The Rezone Tends to Further the Preservation and Enjoyment of Any Substantial Property Rights of the
Petitioner. The applicant maintains that the use of the property, in a manner consistent with surrounding properties, would
further the preservation and enjoyment of his property rights. The majority of the lots in the vicinity of the subject site are
equal to or smaller than the lots included with the proposed subdivision. The applicant contends that the project's
avoidance of sensitive areas or environmental constraints further justifies the development of the property in a reasonable
manner as proposed.
Criteria C, The Rezone is Not Materially Detrimental to the Public Welfare or the Properties of Other Persons Located in
the Vicinity Thereof. The rezone would not be detrimental to public welfare or other properties and would assist the City in
carrying out policies established by the Growth Management Act. The opposing point of view raised by the citizens in this
area contends that the project would exacerbate drainage and traffic problems and would diminish their quality of life in
that area they refer to as open space. Presently there are four underlying lots, two of the lots contain existing homes, there
would be two new residences constructed. Park Avenue right-of-way is presently improved and runs through the central
portion of the site.
Criteria D, The Rezone meets the Review Criteria in Subsections F.1. b and F. Lc of this Section.
(i) The Property is Potentially Classified for the Proposed Zone Being Requested Pursuant to the Policies Set
Forth in the Comprehensive Plan. The site is classified Residential Rural on the Land Use Map of the
Comprehensive Plan. Both R-1 and R-5 zoning are permitted for the property under consideration under the
Residential Rural designation. The site does contain slopes, erosion and landslide areas as identified by the City's
Critical Area Maps. It is located immediately south of Kennydale Creek and a Category 2 wetland. The southern
portion of the site where the proposed development site is located, is generally flat, it is the very north end of this
property that is characterized with steep slopes bordering a ravine that contains Kennydale Creek. The lower
portion of the property is predominantly vegetated with grasses, low-lying vegetation, and deciduous trees. Policy
LU-18 of the Comprehensive Plan states that the City should encourage large lot single-family development
providing a more rural lifestyle in environmentally sensitive, habitat -valuable or agriculturally resource laden
lands.
The requested rezone from R-1 to R-5 appears to be consistent with another policy of the Comprehensive Plan
(Policy LU-26), stating that maximum density should range from 1 home per 10 acres to 5 homes per acre in the
Residential Rural designation. Accordingly, retention of the R-1 zone would also be consistent with the Rural
Residential Designation and Policy LU-26.
(ii) At Least One of the Following Circumstances Applies.

* The subject reclassification was not specifically considered at the time of the last area land use analysis
and area zoning; or
* Since the most recent land use analysis for the area zoning of the subject property, authorized public
improvements, permitted private development or other circumstances affecting the subject property have
undergone significant and material change.
The subject site was rezoned during the last area land use analysis and area rezoning in June of 1993. Prior to that the site
was designated R-l. The neighborhood located directly north of the site was developed under the old R-I standards. That
area is now designated R-8, but you can see by the pattern that the old R-1 and the current R-8 are pretty consistent. In
June of 1993 the City Council adopted new zoning for the area. The western 11.21 acres were assigned R-8 zoning and the
4.43 acres on the east was zoned R-1. Any increase in density requires a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone of
the property.
In June 1995 City Council adopted Ordinance 4537 that created the R-5 zone. The R-5 applies to the Residential Rural and
Residential Single Family land use designations.
Since the R-5 zone did not exist at the time of the last area wide rezone, it was not specifically considered for the subject
parcel or for any other parcels in the city. However, since the last analysis of the zoning for the site of Phase I of Clover
Creek Preliminary Plat, a number of authorized public improvements have taken place that affect the subject property,
specifically roadway and utility improvements have been installed in conjunction with Labrador Plat. This has established
the necessary infrastructure improvements to support future development of the subject site.
Staff has reviewed the legislative record for substantive support as to why the Council applied the R-I zone to this
particular area, but the record appears to be silent on this issue. The presumption is that the Council had substantive
reasons for imposing the R-1 zoning which were unexpressed or which are in the record but unfound.
James Handmacher, Morton, McGoldrick Law Firm, P.O. Box 1533, Tacoma, WA 98401-1533 handed the Examiner a
Hearing Brief that summarizes the analysis under the code. There are two issues before you, one obviously is the rezone,
but the other is the preliminary plat. The preliminary plat was denied previously because the rezone was denied, if the
Examiner reconsiders that decision and decides to recommend approval of the rezone then there would still need to be a
resolution on the preliminary plat. The court directed its reconsideration on the criteria, and I would like to go through that
now.
In 1999 Council revised the decision criteria for rezones in a number of ways that we think are significant. Starting with
whether the rezone is in the public interest. That public interest is best defined by the Comprehensive Plan adopted by the
City. This Plan contains a number of policies that specifically encourage the zoning that we are asking for here. Policy
LU-11 states that future residential growth should be accommodated through the development of new neighborhoods in an
environmentally suitable land on the hills and plateaus surrounding downtown. That is exactly what this piece of property
is, the property is primarily flat, mostly cleared, suitable for development and surrounded by single-family residential
development in an area that has good access to both downtown and the surrounding communities. Policy H-1 specified that
the City should provide sufficient capacity to accommodate housing provided through growth forecast. Policy H-4
encourages infill development as a means to increase capacity. These policies all clearly identify this as an appropriate
place for a residential development and the densities that we are seeking here are consistent, if not lower densities than in
the surrounding neighborhoods.
Staff noted that there was neighborhood concerns about traffic and drainage. I would point out that virtually every
development has some neighborhood opposition because people's tendencies are to not want things to change. The issues
of traffic and drainage were specifically addressed in the Mitigated DNS. The Environmental Review concluded that there
is no significant impacts on the environment from this development.

(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)

As to neighborhood concerns about property values, again, in every area neighbors would like to see a greenbelt around
their property as long as someone else is providing that greenbelt for them. As the Examiner noted a little while ago, this is
private property, they have as much right to develop their property as the people that are living around them. The
development that is being proposed here will be larger lots than all of the houses in the surrounding area, including the ones
that are voicing the opposition. It will provide a suitable buffer between R-8 zone and the adjacent Griffin Home. I believe
it was the Supreme Court in the Polygon case that said, "Neighborhood opposition standing alone is not ground for denying
the rezone application."
Moving to the second rezone criteria, which is whether the rezone tends to further the preservation and enjoyment of
substantial property rights of the petitioner. Here's where the City recognizes that private property owners have rights and
they have a right to develop their property as long as it is consistent and compatible with the development in surrounding
properties. That is exactly what is proposed here. It would be not at all inconsistent to be asking for R-8, but the property
owner in an attempt to be sensitive to the concerns that were expressed is only asking for R-5 zoning. To single this
property out as a R-1 zone in the absence of any significant environmental concerns and in the fact that it is surrounded by
R-8 would be a detriment to the property rights of the petitioner and that is why the City Council specifically included that
criteria in there to recognize those private property right interests.
As staff points out there is no one at this point in time that seems to know why this property was designated R-1 to begin
with. It was clearly not to provide open space to protect the ravine, as is shown by the drawing,
R-8 zoning separates this property from the ravine. Clover Creek Plat I included roughly eight to ten lots at R-8 zoning on
the east side of the ravine. The property here does not border the ravine, it borders the creek on the north, but the ravine
where there was such concern about the original plat for Clover Creek is entirely within the other subdivision and it is
entirely within the R-8 zoning. The City would not have used R-8 zoning around the ravine if it was going to designate this
property to protect the ravine.
The same is true about trying to explain the R-I zoning as a means of protecting the headwaters of the creek. Keep in mind
that the headwaters of this creek are on the other side of 405, that it culverts under 405 to get to this property. The north
side of the creek is all R-8 zoning and those properties are developed all the way down to the creek. The most significant
protection that this property owner has offered is to designate the entire area of the slopes along the creek banks as a native
growth protection easement. That entire creek bank area as well as all of the sensitive slopes due south of the creek will be
within the native growth protection easement and will not be developable by any of the lot owners, will not be useable by
any of the lot owners. It distinguishes what will be happening on this property as opposed to what is happening on the
north side of the creek where those property owners have developed all the way down to the creek itself.
The third rezone criteria is whether the rezone is materially detrimental to the public welfare or properties of
other persons in the vicinity. All the road and utilities are already in place, all of the drainage facilities are virtually in
place, all environmental impacts have been sufficiently mitigated for DNS to be issued. All of the properties around this
subject property are developed at equivalent densities and in most cases higher densities.
There is no impact on traffic, schools, or on any of the standard areas where there is usually an issue on a new plat.
As to the criteria of whether the property is potentially classified for the proposed zone, staff acknowledges that it is. I
think it is clear that the Comprehensive Plan allows for R-5 zoning in this rural land use category.
The last criteria, which are alternative criteria, are either that the subject reclassification was not specifically considered at
the time of the last area land use analysis and area zoning, or there have been substantial changes in circumstances since the
last area land use analysis and area zoning. You only have to have to find one of those two, and in this case they both exist.
The subject reclassification is to reclassify to R-5. It is important to note that it is not relevant as to whether this subject
reclassification was considered at the time of the plat of Clover Creek, the Code says the last area land use analysis and area
zoning. That was in 1993, prior to the plat approval for Clover Creek. So the fact that the City Council may not have
considered all of the issues dealing with an R-5 zone when it approved the Clover Creek plat is not what the criteria is
looking at. I think that is an important point to keep in mind, therefore, the first criteria is met on its face.

(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)

The second one is also met and this one takes a little bit more analysis. The issue is whether there were substantial changes
in circumstances of the use around the property since the last area land use analysis and area zoning. What we are looking
at is 1993, not what the City Council considered when it approved the prior plat in 1997-98. The changes in the area are
quite significant, the most obvious one being the plat of Clover Creek I, which developed not only a number of additional
lots at the R-8 density but it also provided all the infrastructure for these lots which were not there previously. It provided
the road, the bridge to provide easy access out of the development onto the major city streets. It provided the drainage
facilities. In addition to that, there has been a substantial development south of the property along Lake Washington
Boulevard, next to the Griffin home, that's all multi family development. The only other R-1 property in this area is the
Griffin home. All of the other properties in the area have, since 1993 developed at R-8 or greater densities. In the prior
analysis, I think both in the Examiner's decision as well as at the City Council level, there was talk about whether these
improvements such as the road and bridge, and the development of Clover Creek were anticipated at the time this property
was turned down for rezone as part of the Clover Creek development. The issue however, is not whether or not those
developments were anticipated at that time, under the Code you look at the last area zoning not to the last site specific
zoning. Furthermore, I provided you with a couple cases that I think specifically deal with that. The whole issue of
substantial change of circumstances is originally a court created doctrine, before the City started specifying criteria for
rezones. The Supreme Court adopted the Substantial Change of Circumstances as the criteria that must be satisfied. There
have been several cases that have been looked at under that court created substantial change condition element whether or
not anticipated uses could meet that standard. The courts have clearly considered that approved uses on the subject and
contiguous properties can be a sufficient substantial change in circumstances to justify a rezone. We have approved uses on
the subject and adjacent properties which have been built out since the last time this property was considered even for a site
specific rezone and clearly since the time of the 1993 area -wide zoning.
The Examiner inquired if that kind of change in circumstance was justified, on our east plateau, there are demarcations
between more rural and more intense development. At the time it was adopted one anticipated that on one side of the line
whether it was 148`s or Duvall Avenue there would be more intense uses, and on the other side there would be less intense
uses. Now the intense uses have been developed, on the east side of that line is lower residential, and if someone comes in
and says that we are justified, even though the comprehensive plan and zoning seem to show that there is a demarcation of
that line, look what has gone on west of it, we think it is justifiable also. At some point the Council speculates, the same
thing could be said here that maybe instead of R-8, you could start moving to R-10 or R-12 because of what has gone on
along Lake Washington. Somewhere we need to say that the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning is anticipated and we are
not going to let each new development drive more densification on the other side. We know that zoning is an arbitrary line
somewhere in Clover Creek, the creek was picked again, historic reasons seem to have escaped analysis.
Mr. Handmacher disagreed that the creek was picked as the demarcation, the creek bisects the R-8 zone through the
Clover Creek development. Zoning is an evolutionary process and traditionally you start with dense zoning in a downtown
core and it gets lesser and lesser as it extends out to the rural areas.
The Examiner stated that a Comprehensive Plan Amendment would allow for the analysis of the entire area, zoning drives
zoning. The question is, do you want each parcel zoning to drive the one next door, or do you want the comprehensive
planning process to limit that? As Ms. Nishihira said, growth management does not mandate that we use one site to
provide the density and infill if we have already accommodated it someplace else in the City and the City has done that
along Lake Washington with the variety of other developments.
Mr. Handmacher: We are not asking for a change of the Comprehensive Plan to allow for denser development than the
Comprehensive Plan would otherwise allow. The Comprehensive Plan specifically authorizes the zone that we are asking
for. The Comprehensive Plan would not allow for R-8, R-10 or any other density zone on this parcel. The Comprehensive
Plan does specifically allow for what we are asking, you then have to look at which is the more suitable use within the
Comprehensive Plan designation for this particular property. Does it make sense at R-1 when it is surrounded by R-8 or
does it make sense at R-5, which is more consistent with what is allowed around it? If environmental issue was the only
one at stake here, this property will be more protected under the R-5 zone and plat that is being proposed than it is now.
There is no native growth protection easement along that creek bank that will afford protection.

The Examiner stated R-5 does not do that, it would be the platting with the native growth protection easement, or is the
applicant willing to make that a contract with the R-5 zone? Mr. Handmacher acknowledged that the property owner
would be willing to make that a condition of the rezone as well as the preliminary plat, they go together and the property
owner intends to develop them that way. The Examiner further stated that there is nothing that guarantees that the plat
would be developed once the R-5 is rendered. Mr. Handmacher continued that if the concern was that one may not follow
the other, the property owner is willing to condition the rezone upon the Native Growth Protection Easement. This area has
been determined to handle growth up to an R-5 zone. All we know is that back in 1993 when that rural residential
classification was put on this property R-5 was not an option. All criteria support this rezone application. We are asking you
to take a fresh look at the facts of the protections that are being provided, the fact that there is no necessity of retaining an
R-1 zone for environmental protection, the development of the ravine has already taken place as part of the previous plat.
The R-5 zone is consistent with the growth management act and the policies the City has adopted to use infill development
as opposed to expanding out into agricultural areas. Clearly this is not a rural area, this is not an agricultural area, this is the
middle of City, it is an area that is appropriate for residential development.
As was pointed out at the original hearing, the applicant has no objections to any of the conditions that were recommended
by the City staff, they are all appropriate. We are asking for you to approve both the rezone and the plat at this time.
The Examiner asked for further testimony in support of this rezone; opposition, or questions regarding this matter. The
Examiner further asked for additional time since a vacation was planned in advance.

The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and no further
comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:50 a.m.
The matter was remanded by Superior Court back to the Hearing Examiner to utilize the criteria found in Section 4-9-180
to determine whether or not the property in question should be reclassified from R-1 to R-5 and whether a 15-lot plat
should be developed on the subject site if the reclassification were approved.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
(The hearing that occurred on remand did not introduce any new factual issues regarding the subject site, impacts
or other issues and the original Findings are included for ease of reading the entire decision)
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Brad Hughes, for Labrador Venture L.L.C., filed a request for approval of reclassification of
property from R-1 (Single family/one unit per acre) to R-5 (Single Family/five units per acre), together with a plan
to subdivide the same property into 15 single-family lots.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation and other
pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official, issued a Declaration of Non -
Significance - Mitigated (DNS-M) for the subject proposal.
4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.

The subject site is located in the vicinity of Park Avenue North and North 27th Place. The site is northeast of Lake
Washington Boulevard and north of North 26th Street. The site is located west of the Griffin/Friends of Youth
home.
The subject site is a very irregular parcel of approximately 4.43 acres. The subject site is comprised of four
underlying lots that contain two existing and occupied single-family homes.
7. While the parcel is irregular, it is approximately 600 feet wide (east to west) by approximately 550 feet deep. The
parcel is comprised of 4 separate legal lots that would be consolidated and redivided by the new plat. The existing
four lots could contain a total of four homes or two additional homes over the current two homes.
8. The parcel has complex topography. It slopes generally downward from east to west with the exception of the
north margin of the site where a ravine with its stream creates a very steep slope downward to the north. The
ravine has slopes that range up to and over 40 percent. The steepest areas have been proposed for a set aside as
Native Growth Protection areas. The wetland near the dam at the northwestern comer of the site would be
protected by a 50-foot buffer, which would also be incorporated into the Native Growth Protection area under a
staff condition. The elevations on the site range from approximately 200 feet near the eastern edge of the site to
approximately 140 feet at its southwestern corner.
9. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1821 enacted in March 1960.
10. The citywide zoning that the City approved in June 1993 reclassified the approximately 4.43 acres to R-1.
11. The Comprehensive Plan for this area of the City was adopted in February 1995. The map element of the
Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of
single-family use but does not mandate such development without consideration of other policies of the Plan. The
plan suggests that the acreage is suitable for Residential Rural uses. The "rural" designation may support either
the current R-I or R-5 zoning according to staff. Terrain, access and adjacent uses are considered when reviewing
any proposed changes. Staff did not make -any recommendation on the proposed rezone. They did suggest that if
the rezone were approved, then the plat should be approved for 15 lots.
12. Two existing single-family homes are located on the subject site. One is located near the northeast corner of the
site. The second is located in the western half of the site.
13. An easement driveway runs along the eastern edge of the site and connects a separate parcel located near the
southeastern corner of the subject site to N. 28th Street. This provides the primary access to that third party
property.
14. The subject site would have access to the newly constructed roadways of N. 27th Place and Park Avenue N.
Those roadways form a right angle near the center of the proposed plat. A cul-de-sac would be located near the
90-degree turn.
15. The site also has frontage along N. 26th Street along its southeast boundary.
16. The applicant proposes reclassifying the 4.43 acres from R-1 to R-5 to allow increased density. Fifteen dwellings
would be constructed on this portion of the site if it were rezoned to R-5.
17. The applicant has already developed a plat generally west of the subject site with 47 single-family lots. That new
plat has developed a road system with a bridge over the ravine near the northwest edge of the subject site.
18. The proposed plat would have a tier of lots running along the north and east edges of the site with the remaining
lots clustered in the southwest corner of the site west of Park Avenue. The existing homes would be located on
Proposed Lots 5 and 11.

(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)

19. The site is an interesting mix of the two homes, a variety of vegetation and the steep slopes and creek.
20. The proposed density for the R-5 portion of the site if it were developed with 15 lots would be approximately 4.6
which meets that zone's maximum of 5 units per acre (there is no minimum range in either the R-1 or R-5 zones).
If the R-1 zoning were retained only 4 dwellings would be permitted after the roadway and steeper undevelopable
portions of the site are subtracted as provided by code.
21. The proposed lots appear to meet the code standards for the R-5 zone with the possible exception of Proposed Lot
14, which may have a substandard yard. Proposed Lots 5 and 14 would have pipestems connecting with public
roads. Proposed Lot 5 does have secondary access to N. 28th Street via the easement that runs along the east
boundary of the site but staff noted it is substandard. The R-5 zone requires lot sizes of 7,200 square feet.
22. Development of the proposal will generate approximately 9.57 trips per home or a total of approximately 144 trips
per day for the 15-lot plat. Approximately 10 percent of the trips would occur in each of the peak hours.
23. The development of the subject site will generate approximately six (6) students using school district values. The
school district has indicated it has capacity for these students who will be assigned to schools on a space available
basis.
24. The subject site will be served by the City for water and sewer service.
25. Storm water will be contained by vaults located in the roadway and be released near the southwestern corner of the
site.
26. In addition to the development of the adjacent plat, the applicant noted that by platting the land the City gains the
right to impose development conditions on the slopes and create the Native Growth Protection areas, which would
not occur if the plat were denied. The applicant noted that the existing underlying lots would not be subject to the
same restrictions. General and specific development regulations would still govern the areas of slope, stream and
wetland.
CONCLUSIONS:
Rezone
1. The propoflent of a rezone must demonstrate that the request is in the public interest, that it will not impair the
public health, safety and welfare and in addition, complies with the criteria found in Section 4-9-180, which provides:
4-9-180 REZONE PROCESS:

rules of the Hearing Examiner. (Ord. 4437, 2-21-1994)
E SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS AND FEES:
Submittal requirements and fees shall be as specified in RMC 4-1-170, Land Use Review Fees,
and4-& 120C, Land Use Applications.
F DECISION CRITERIA FOR CHANGE OF ZONE CLASSIFICATION:
1. Criteria for Rezones Requiring a Comprehensive Plan Amendment: The Reviewing Official
shall find that:
a. The proposed amendment meets the review criteria in RMC 4-9-020G; and
b. The property is potentially classified for the proposed zone being requested pursuant to the
polices set forth in the Comprehensive Plan; and
c. At least one of the following circumstances applies:
i. The subject reclassification was not specifically considered at the time of the last area land use
analysis and area zoning; or
ii. Since the most recent land use analysis or the area zoning of the subject property, authorized
public improvements, permitted private development or other circumstances affecting the
subject property have undergone significant and material change.
2. Criteria for Rezones Not Requiring Plan Amendment: The Reviewing Official shall make the
following findings:
a. The rezone is in the public interest, and
b. The rezone tends to further the preservation and enjoyment of any substantial property rights
of the petitioner, and
c. The rezone is not materially detrimental to the public welfare or the properties of other
persons located in the vicinity thereof, and
d. The rezone meets the review criteria in subsections F I b and F I c of this Section. (Amd. Ord.
4794, 9-20-1999)
The requested classification is not justified and should not be approved by the City Council.
Nothing in the record compels the City to reclassify the subject site to R-5 from its current R-1. Whether or not
the City should rezone property is entirely within the discretion of the City. The criteria noted above can help
guide the decision making process but does not require any particular outcome.
It is clearly established that district lines that separate disparate zones must be drawn somewhere and that results in
some properties being developed for high intensity uses and others for less intense uses whether the adjacent zones
or uses are varying shades of residential uses or varying shades of commercial, industrial or manufacturing uses or
residential uses and commercial uses. The applicant suggested that the R-5 would make a good transition zone
between the R-8 found to the north and west of the site and the R-1 found south of the site. Transition zoning is
generally used to buffer or step down the intensity of uses to blend between different uses. In this case, the creek
and ravine already serve as a transition or buffer and, therefore, no particular land use zoning transition appears
necessary. The R-8 is generally on one side of the ravine and creek and R-1 is on the other. There is no need to
transition to R-5 to buffer the Griffin Home and its R-I Zoning from the R-8 zoning on the opposite side of the
creek.

(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)

The applicant also cites policies of the Growth Management Act. Again, nothing in the Growth Management Act
compels the City to upzone additional property in this or any other area of the City. Staff noted that the City has
accommodated its goals and objectives regarding population and housing types and has accommodated sufficient
land for its and the county's population goals.
While the applicant can suggest that infill in this close -in area would be appropriate given surrounding uses, there
is no reason the City cannot provide for more spacious lots in this area regardless of the proximity to downtown or
other urban services. The larger lots of the subject site complement the Griffm Home property. The larger lots
continue in a reasonable fashion the larger lots and preservation of additional open space that the Griffin Home
provides on lots immediately adjacent to that site. The larger lots allow the preservation of more vegetation and
openness between homes on the subject site than would be the case with 15 homes carved from the same acreage.
Any argument that rezoning the property provides better protection for the slopes ignores the fact that if the slopes
are subject to restrictions due to erosion, gradient or other issues, they will be protected in some fashion by
existing sensitive areas' regulations. Depending on the slope angle, protections may be mandated. More intense
development even if setback by voluntary agreements would not necessary enhance the slope protections.
6. In addition to the general conclusions above regarding the proposed rezone, code provides additional criteria. The
proposed R-5 Zone requested by the applicant does not require a Comprehensive Plan amendment since the R-5
zoning is compatible with the Comprehensive Plan's designation of the site as suitable for rural residential uses.
Therefore the decision criteria are those found in subsections 4-9-180(F)(2)(a) through (d) along with those found
in subsections 4-9-180(F)(1)(b) and (c).
Criterion: a. The rezone is in the public interest:
The public interest does not appear to compel the reclassification of the subject site. The site consists of four
separate legal lots that would support four homes, of which two already exist. If the rezone were approved five
lots would be carved out along what is generally the south side of the creek and an additional 10 lots would be
created from the remaining acreage. More intensive development of the subject site, even granting the applicant's
intention to protect the creekside ravine, will require the removal of more trees, shrubs and vegetation in order to
accommodate the additional building pads, cul-de-sac and access driveways. The site would lose its more rural
character even with the R-5 "rural" designation requested. It will bring more urban pressures on the site and even
with preservation of the slopes, on those slopes and the creek. The existing, larger lots would probably preserve
more open space in this area between the four permitted homes than would be preserved by 15 homes. Preserving
the current R-1 zoning remains in the public interest. While permitting more dense development might
accommodate some of the City's population goals and provide infill development, those goals have been achieved
by providing for more intense development in other areas of the City, including the companion property already
developed by the applicant adjacent to this site. The public interest is served by permitting a range of lot sizes in
the City to accommodate those who want smaller lots and those who want larger lots. There does not appear to be
a need to confine all large lot development to the fringes of the City. The ravine's natural features will be affected
by the number of homes directly adjacent to it. The ravine might be better served by less rather than more
development.
8. Criterion b. The rezone tends to further the preservation and enjoyment of any substantial property rights of the
petitioner:
The applicant might reap higher profits from the ability to sell more homes on smaller lots but larger lots might
also provide a reasonable return. But economics are not the only factor which determines if property should be
rezoned for more intensive uses. Four lots already overlay the property preserving development potential. The
applicant has not been denied reasonable use of the land as it is currently zoned. Two homes are located on the
property and the four lots could accommodate two additional homes.

(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)
April 15, 2003
Page 17
Criterion c. The rezone is not materially detrimental to the public welfare or the properties of other persons located
in the vicinity thereof:
Additional development increases the density and population of an area with the attendant increase in noise and
traffic. The four existing lots would each generate just under 10 vehicle trips per day for approximately 40 trips
per day. Fifteen lots, or 11 more than currently exist, would generate approximately 110 additional trips per day.
The impact of such increases might not be substantial but it is not inconsequential.
10. Criterion d. The rezone meets the review criteria in subsections F I b and F I c of this Section:
b. The property is potentially classified for the proposed zone being requested pursuant to the polices set forth in
the Comprehensive Plan; and
c. At least one of the following circumstances applies:
i. The subject reclassification was not specifically considered at the time of the last area land use analysis and area
zoning; or
ii. Since the most recent land use analysis or the area zoning of the subject property, authorized public
improvements, permitted private development or other circumstances affecting the subject property have
undergone significant and material change.
11. The Comprehensive Plan permits the proposed R-5 zone and provides a rural overlay for areas zoned R-5.
12. At the time the last area land use analysis occurred, the City did not have an R-5 District. So the proposal R-5
classification was not considered at that time.
Since the adoption of the last area land use analysis, the companion plat has been developed along with extensive
infrastructure including what would be the main road for access to the proposed new lots. There have also been
changes along Lake Washington Boulevard both north and south of the subject site.
But while the circumstances do apply to the subject site, those are not the sole criteria for granting a
reclassification of property.
13. In addition, nothing in the remand negated the conclusions of the original report and those probably bear
reiterating (The following are from the original conclusions):
"There is nothing that particularly recommends the R-5 over the existing R-1 zoning for the
subject site. Even staff, which should have made a recommendation, did not favor one zone
over the other. There simply is no reason not to have some larger in -city lots. So while R-5
would meet the Comprehensive Plan's objectives and the zoning code designates either R-I or
R-5 to meet the rural residential objectives, R-1 also meets those objectives.
3. The applicant noted that the recent development of the plat adjacent to the subject site has
changed the area and those changes are fairly substantial. There is no denying that the plat's
development has substantially altered the character of the area. But the demarcation of the creek
provides a substantial topographic boundary between the subject site and the new plat. There is
also no denying that those changes were prophesied by the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning
for that adjacent site. So while there have been changes due to the recent development they are
and were not unexpected. The subject site was always adjacent to land designated for greater
densities and those densities have been realized. That does not change the fact that the subject
site was designated for lesser densities adjacent to those lands designated for greater densities.
In other words any changes are not changes that were unanticipated. The changes do not
Clover Creek II Preliminary Pla, Remand
File No.: LUA-01-034,PP,R,ECF
(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)
April 15, 2003
Page 18
mandate or even necessarily recommend that the subject site's zoning be changed or that it is not
still suitable for R-1 Zoning.
4. The site was rezoned during a citywide effort. The eastern portion of the subject site was
specifically designated for the large lot, R-I zoning, while the western portion of the site was
designated for the more urban sized lots of R-8. Due to the irregular boundaries that separate the
R-1 and R-8 portions of the site, it would appear that it was a deliberate reasoned determination.
It clearly also respected property lines. The subject site and its companion Griffin home site
were both designated R-I and this might have been an effort to preserve the larger lots and
slopes near the headwaters of the creek.
5. The City Council in reviewing the last requested zone change had found the rezone was not
justified at the same time it was approving the plat for the adjacent property. In other words,
again, it is not as if the development of the new plat was unforeseen and has substantially
changed the landscape in ways that were not predicted two years ago. The City Council
understood fully that the land immediately west of the subject site was going to be developed at
a more intense level but nonetheless determined that R-I zoning on the subject site was
appropriate. It remains just as appropriate now.
6. While it is true that the R-5 Zoning category did not exist when the site was originally
classified R-1 and so was not considered that does not mean that it is appropriate. The R-5
zoning option did exist when the City Council last reviewed this specific site. It was found at
that time that R-5 was inappropriate. Again, nothing has happened that should change that. Yes,
the land next door was developed but it was anticipated to be developed. The current zoning is
not only compatible with the Comprehensive Plan but it is compatible with the zoning on the
adjacent R-1 Griffin Home parcel. The larger lots will permit the preservation of more of the
open space and provide an opportunity for home ownership of larger parcels that enjoy the
environmental amenities that this unique site holds. Rezoning the site to R-5 would create
approximately 3 or 4 times as many lots and essentially carve up the unique ravine, slopes and
forests into small parcels where less of the amenities would remain.
7. It would appear that the Comprehensive Plan would permit an R-5 designation for the land
designated rural residential but that does not mandate such development. Again, while there are
more rugged areas near the site that might have been suitable for R-1 does not mean that this site
is unworthy of maintaining its R-1 zoning.
8. The applicant is not being denied reasonable use of the property. The applicant clearly
understood the property was zoned R- I when it was purchased. Two existing homes are already
located on the site providing reasonable use of two of the lots. Two other existing lots may be
developed subject to the City's development regulations. The applicant may have hoped that the
subject site was suitable for more intense use but the governing language of the Comprehensive
Plan does not guarantee more intense use. It offers alternatives of which the R-1 zoning remains
appropriate.
9. The City specifically designated stretches along Lake Washington Boulevard for multiple
family uses, urban density single family uses and rural single family uses. There does not appear
to be any compelling reason to alter this arrangement. Again, the changes that have occurred
were planned for the area. They cannot be used to justify R-5 zoning.
10. The City's current land use policies and zoning comply with the Growth Management Act.
The City Council was very deliberate in adopting its housing elements to make sure that the
City, in total, accommodated its forecasted housing units and populations. It balanced its
various Zoning Districts and their respective densities and arrived at a mix of housing types to
Clover Creek II Preliminary Plat Remand
File No.: LUA-0 1 -03 4,PP,R,ECF
(Original Hearing September 25, 2001)
April 15, 2003
Page 19
meet the required goals. The Council clearly divided the City for a mix of housing types and
densities. This resulted in a variety of neighborhoods and uses separated from one another or
adjacent to one another in trying to achieve a balance of larger apartments, duplex and triplex
buildings and small lot and larger lot single family housing types. Courts have been very clear
that during area -wide zoning initiatives, a Zoning line must finally be drawn somewhere and as
long as it seems fair, it is acceptable to draw a line through a neighborhood and divide it into
more and less dense districts. This area along Lake Washington Boulevard seems to provide a
residential mix of RM-I accommodating apartments, R-8 accommodating smaller lot single
family uses and R-1 accommodating larger lot single family uses.
11. There does not seem to be anything inherently wrong with the juxtaposition of the R-1 and
the R-8 districts. It appears as if the natural open space and ravine as well the then existing
property lines and ownerships provided the basis for the R-1 versus R-8 demarcation. There
certainly is no compelling reason to alter the zoning on the subject site.
12. Therefore, the City Council should deny the application to reclassify the subject site from R-
I to R-5.
Preliminary Plat
14. The recommendation to deny the rezone makes it inappropriate to review the plat at this time.
15. In summary, the record does not justify the reclassification of the east or south side of the creek from R-1 toR-5.
The zoning demarcations seem appropriate in light of the area, the goal of providing a variety of zoning districts
and preserving to some extent the open feeling of a portion of this unique site.
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council should deny the request to reclassify the eastern 4.43 acres from R-1 to R-5.

parties to this lawsuit are residents of the State of Washington. Venue is properly laid in this
court.
3.0 FACTUAL STATEMENT
3.1 M. Monica Fix owns the property located at 3007 Mountain View Avenue
North, Renton, Washington, which has the following legal description:
Lots 64 and 65 in Block A of C.D. Hillman's Lake Washington Garden of
Eden Addition to Seattle No. 1, according to plat recorded in Volume 11 of
Plats at Page 63, in King County, Washington. Together with second class-
shorelands adjoining as established by decree entered October 19, 1923 in
Superior Court Cause No. 156371, in King County, Washington.
3.2 The property includes a residence, and is comprised of two contiguous lots
which front Lake Washington's shoreline.
3.3 Defendant Labrador acquired the parcel of land immediately north of plaintiffs
property. The street address of the property is 3011 Mountain View Avenue North, Renton,
Washington, and it is legally described as follows:
Lot 1 and 2 of City of Renton Lot Line Adjustment No. LUA-01-107-LLA,
according to Survey recorded January 24, 2002 under Recording No.
200201249003, in King County, Washington. Together with second class
shorelands adjoining as established by decree entered October 19, 1923 in
Superior Court Cause No. 156371, in King County, Washington.
3.4 Labrador subdivided the parcel for the purpose of constructing improvements,
and selling the improved land. In order to obtain appropriate regulatory approvals, and in
order to maximize the economic return which could be generated from the property, Labrador
was obliged to access sewer connections. The most advantageous such connections ran to a
point located within a few feet on plaintiffs property, described above. Labrador's access to
such connections required an easement across plaintiff's land. The closest alternative sewer

connection was hundreds of feet distant, and would have required a grant of easements from
others to Labrador before becoming usable by Labrador.
3.5 In order to induce plaintiff to permit access, across her property, so that
Labrador had less expensive and more economically advantageous connections, Labrador,
and defendant Bradley K. Hughes contacted plaintiff in the Spring of 2001. The business
problem Labrador encountered was explained to plaintiff and she was asked to provide an
easement which would facilitate Labrador's development of the property.
3.6 Plaintiff, after discussions, review of the Labrador project, further discussions
with city officials, and representations regarding the advantage to plaintiff of permitting the
easement, agreed to permit Labrador to access the sewer connection via a sewer easement
across her property. Her agreement was conditioned upon the performance of certain acts by
defendants, who have failed to so act.' Her agreement was conditioned upon defendants
providing a 20 foot driveway easement, in a westerly direction located at the southern
boundary of the Labrador parcel, to a point approximately 165 feet west of the adjoining
roadway, such that in future times persons wishing to access the lower portion of plaintiffs
parcel would be able to access same without crossing or otherwise trafficking upon her
existing, easternmost parcel (upon which her present residence is constructed). Plaintiffs
agreement was further conditioned upon defendants providing a paved driveway 12 feet in
width, located entirely within the 20 foot easement previously referenced. There was no
discussion between plaintiff and defendants regarding maintenance of the easement, though
plaintiff assumed defendants would be obliged to maintain the easement, since it was on their
property. A depiction of the property, with the easement as promised to plaintiff by
defendants, is depicted in Exhibit A hereto which is incorporated by this reference.

3.7 During the time discussions occurred between plaintiff, and defendants,
defendant Bradley K. Hughes either negligently or intentionally misrepresented the scope of
the relief and accommodation to be provided to plaintiff in exchange for plaintiffs grant of
easement across her property. By so acting, defendant Bradley K. Hughes misrepresented the
future actions to be taken by Labrador, and himself, respectively, for the sole purpose of
inducing plaintiff to provide immediate execution of an easement prepared by defendant and
his agents and representatives. For such actions, which did or may have occurred outside the
scope of his authority to act for Labrador, defendant Bradley K. Hughes and his marital
community, are jointly liable with defendant Labrador for either negligence, or intentional
misrepresentation.
3.8 Having provided access to her property, and having conditioned her consent to
such easement upon the foregoing particulars, as stated in paragraph 3.6, above, plaintiff later
learned that defendants had no intention of providing the easement previously promised, had
no intention of performing any of the promises made to plaintiff, had no intention of honoring . .
any component of the promises made, and have wholly and entirely repudiated the basis for
the original agreement entered with plaintiff.
4.0 CAUSES OF ACTION
4.1 Plaintiff incorporates as if restated paragraphs 1.1 through 3.8, above.
4.2 Accordingly, plaintiff seeks relief in the form of specific performance, such
that each and every one of the promises defendants made for the purpose of inducing her to
act shall be compelled to be performed by this Court, in a manner, at a cost, and in a
timeframe to be set by the court in the exercise of its legal and equitable powers. In so acting,
plaintiff requests that the Court also award all costs, fees, and damages sustained by plaintiff

as a result of the contract breach, misrepresentation, and consumer protection act violations
committed by defendants.
5.0 PRAYER FOR RELIEF
5.1 Wherefore; having fully stated her complaint, plaintiff prays for relief as
follows:
A. Entry of an order requiring defendants to specifically perform, as promised, in
all ways and in every particular, without cost or inconvenience to plaintiff;
B. An award for general damages to be proved at trial;
C. For such other relief as the court deems equitable and proper.

SUBJECT: Scope of Work and Budget Agreement for Phase 3- Completion and
Issuance of the Draft EIS — Boeing Comprehensive Plan Amendment EIS
Dear Alex:
Per our April 101h Consultant Agreement, our current scope of work pertaining to the
above EIS technically concluded with the submittal of the Preliminary Draft EIS to the
City on May 29th. We have initiated work on the next phase of the EIS process -
Completion and Issuance of the Draft EIS. Blumen Consulting Group, Inc. is pleased to
submit this Scope of Work and Budget Agreement to the City of Renton to provide
services related to this next phase of the Boeing Comprehensive Plan Amendment EIS.
We and our team welcome the opportunity to continue to assist the City of Renton with
the SEPA process on this project.
Our scope of work for this phase is dependent upon the comments received from the
City and Boeing; we have received the full set of initial comments, as of June 10th. We
understand that there will be two additional rounds of review and comments prior to the
issuance of the Draft EIS in July. The last round is expected to result in only very minor,
editorial comments. We have estimated a Scope of Work and Budget to cover services
over the next approximately one plus months (through issuance of the Draft EIS,
scheduled for July 15th). This scope and budget are somewhat speculative, as ultimately
the scope is directly tied to comments received. We have built in some flexibility to deal
with the next rounds of review. However, in the event that the timeline is extended for
reasons beyond our control, or if major changes to the DEIS or technical reports are
required by the City, as a result of additional review, our Scope of Work may need to be
amended to reflect additional services. Similarly, if new elements are added to the DEIS
scope (i.e., air quality), an adjustment in scope and budget would be necessary.
The following Scope of Work identifies a list of tasks associated with completing the
Draft EIS, and the accompanying deliverables to the City by the Blumen Consulting
Group team. As you know, we propose to continue to use the services of the following
technical firms during this and subsequent EIS phases: Transportation Engineering
Northwest (transportation), AC Kindig & Company (water quality, shoreline and
fisheries), KPFF (infrastructure, stormwater drainage and utilities), Associated Earth
Sciences (soils/groundwater and hazardous waste issues) and BRC Acoustics (noise).
SCOPE OF WORK
As indicated above, our Scope of Work assumes that the Blumen Consulting Group
team will continue to assist the City of Renton in the completion of various steps related
to the EIS process over the next several months; this next phase of work will include
services related to the completion and issuance of the Draft EIS. As part of this phase,
we will respond to comments received from the City of Renton. Two additional rounds of
review will be required prior to DEIS issuance, including review by staff, the ERC,
Planning Commission and City Council.
During the completion and issuance of the Draft EIS, the following specific tasks will be
completed:
• Task 1: Review comments on the initial PDEIS (submitted 5/29) received from the
City and Boeing, and coordinate with the EIS team regarding distribution of
comments and approach to revisions, as applicable (already completed).
• Task 2: Prepare necessary revisions to the PDEIS; review changes made by the
technical team; incorporate technical changes as warranted; and produce a second
version of the document for submittal to the City of Renton.
• Task 3: Coordinate with City staff to obtain all necessary remaining policy and
zoning information (i.e., airport policy issue); (it is assumed that any major analysis
relative to the airport (risk assessment) would be completed by a separate consultant
at a later point); review information and incorporate into the document, as warranted.
• Task 4: Coordinate with Heartland and other team members to revise EIS graphics,
as warranted.
• Task 5: Attend the EIS briefings before the Planning Commission, PD&C committee
and COW committee. It is assumed that only BCG staff will attend (no technical
team members). It is further assumed that City staff will make presentations to these
bodies; BCG's role will be to monitor comments, issues and questions raised, and to
respond to questions, if applicable.
• Task 6: Based on the second round of comments from the City (to be received on
6/27), review comments, coordinate with the technical team as necessary, prepare
revisions to the second PDEIS and produce a third version for submittal to the City
on 7/17.
• Task 7: Coordinate with City staff regarding final comments on the DEIS; make
necessary revisions; and prepare the document for final production and issuance.
• Task 8: Attend up to ten (10) additional meetings through completion and issuance
of the Draft EIS (this is in addition to the three briefings identified above). Three
meetings have already been held on June 5tn, June 9m and June 11 to
• Task 9: Prepare for and attend the public hearing on the Draft EIS, scheduled for
July 30tn (BCG only). Prepare for presentation to be made on the DEIS (assumed to
Scope and Budget Agreement for DEIS Completion Services 2
Boeing Comprehensive Plan Amendment E15
Blumen Consulting Group, Inc.
be a brief summary presentation of the DEIS process). It is assumed that the City or
other members of the team will prepare the necessary graphics and displays for the
hearing presentation.
• Task 10: Coordinate production of the revised document and print copies for review
by the City, Boeing and the team. It is assumed that up to forty (40) copies of the
second PDEIS will be required, at a cost of $100 per copy (assumes two volumes).
It is assumed that up to ten (10) copies of the third PDEIS will be required at the
same cost per copy.
Task 11: Coordinate with our printing vendor regarding the final printing of the Draft
EIS. It is assumed that 120 copies of the DEIS (Volume 1) and 100 copies of the
Technical Appendix (Volume 2) will be required for public distribution and availability,
at a cost of $50 per volume. (Printing of additional copies will be subject to a change
order under this scope.) It is assumed that we will deliver copies to the City, prior to
the issuance date, and the City will be responsible for distribution and mailing.
• Task 12: EIS project management: including, coordination with the City, Boeing and
the team, via telephone and e-mail, regarding overall DEIS progress, outstanding
issues, information to respond to comments and schedule. Also included in this task
are subcontract management, accounting, and invoicing, related to management of
the EIS team.
At the end of this phase, the Draft EIS will be issued by the City. This scope and budget
cover our services through completion and issuance of the Draft EIS (targeted for July
15, 2003) and attendance/presentation at the public hearing on the DEIS. A scope of
work and budget for the next phase of the process, Phase 4- Preparation of the
Preliminary Final EIS, will be prepared and submitted for review and approval by the City
upon receipt of pubic and agency comments on the DEIS.
Deliverables
The following deliverables will be produced by the Blumen. Consulting Group team
during this phase of work:
• Preparation of the second revised version of the PDEIS for submittal to the City.
This document will respond to comments received from the City on the first DPDEIS.
• Preparation of the third revised PDEIS for submittal to the City.
• Production of the Draft EIS for issuance and public distribution (up to 120 copies).
SCHEDULE
The Blumen Consulting Group (BCG) team is prepared to complete work on the Draft
EIS according to the agreed -upon schedule. Based on the agreed -upon schedule at our
June 5th meeting, the second revised PDEIS will be submitted to the City on June 19th. If
Scope and Budget Agreement for DEIS Completion Services
Boeing Comprehensive Plan Amendment EIS
Blumen Consulting Group, Inc.
comments are received from the City on June 271h, the third revised PDEIS will be
submitted on July 71h. Finally, copies of the Draft EIS will be delivered to the City on July
141h for issuance of the document on July 151h, assuming comments are received by July
9th and are very limited in nature. If the schedule is delayed for reasons beyond our
control, an adjustment in scope and budget may be warranted.
BUDGET
As of June 9th, we have approximately $43,400 remaining from our Phase 2 budget (total
budget of $557,800 plus $58,850 executed in the May 21, 2003 amendment). We will
continue to use the budget remaining for work on this phase. However, additional
budget will be needed to complete the Draft EIS. For Phase 3 of the EIS process -
Completion and Issuance of the Draft EIS, we propose to establish a not -to -exceed
amount of $103,500. Again, this additional budget allows certain flexibility to respond to
comments as part of the next rounds of review, as noted earlier in this letter.
A breakdown of estimated costs among the various firms is provided as Attachment A to
this letter. This budget includes all team labor and reimbursable expenses. It covers
services through issuance of the Draft EIS (targeted for July 15th, 2003) and BCG
attendance at the Draft EIS hearing.
Our team's costs will be billed on an hourly basis, consistent with our current Fee
Schedules, attached to this letter (Attachment B). At the conclusion of this phase of
work and receipt of public comments on the DEIS, we will be able to define a scope of
work and not -to -exceed budget for Phase 4, preparation of the Preliminary Final EIS.
We greatly appreciate the opportunity to be part of the City's team, and we look forward
to successfully completing the Draft and Final EIS.
If this proposed Scope of Work and Budget Agreement are acceptable to the City of
Renton, we assume that you will incorporate this letter in an addendum to our current
Contract. Please call me if you have any questions.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City is in receipt of a 10% Notice of Intent petition to initiate a direct petition method of
annexation for approximately 37 acres located at the City limits south of NE 4th Street beginning
at the eastern edge of the Tydico Annexation boundary along Bremerton Avenue NE/136th
Avenue E approximately 610 feet to and including the 1381h Avenue SE right-of-way between SE
135th Court on the south and the north side of SE 132nd Street on the north. Then east
approximately 610 feet south of SE 132nd Street to and including the right-of-way of 140th
Avenue SE, if extended. The site is bounded by the City boundary (NE 3rd, if extended) on the
north. The southern boundary of the annexation site is approximately SE 135ih Street, if
extended. Approximately 25% of the annexation site currently abuts the City boundary and upon
annexation of the Tydico site this will increase to approximately 40%.
State law requires that the Council hold a meeting within 60 days of filing the 10% Notice of
Intent to Commence Annexation to consider the proposed annexation and decide whether it will
accept, modify, or reject it. If Council accepts the annexation, a resolution authorizing the
circulation of the 50% petition to annex shall be considered.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Council set a Public Meeting date for August 41h, 2003.

FROM: Alex Pietsch, Administrator

Department
STAFF CONTACT: Don Erickson (X-6581)
SUBJECT: Proposed Carlo Annexation 10% Notice of Intent
ISSUE:
The City is in receipt of a Notice of Intent to annex about 37 acres to the City of Renton by direct
petition (Figure 1, Vicinity Map). State law requires that the Council hold a Public Meeting with
annexation proponents to decide whether to accept, reject or geographically modify the proposal,
whether to require the assumption of bonded indebtedness and whether to require the simultaneous
adoption of zoning.
RECOMMENDATION:
On the basis of the following analysis, the Administration recommends that Council accept the 10%
Notice of Intent. If Council concurs with this recommendation, the Administration recommends that
Council take the following actions (pursuant to RCW 35A.14.120):
• Authorize the circulation of the 50% Petition to Annex for the proposed area;
• Require the adoption of City zoning on the property consistent with the Comprehensive Plan;
and,
• Require that property owners assume a proportional share of the City's outstanding indebtedness.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The "L" shaped Carlo Annexation site has not previously been considered for annexation to Renton. It
is located immediately east of the proposed Tydico Site Annexation, which will be considered by voters
with that annexation on September 16, 2003. This annexation cannot be approved until after the Tydico
annexation is completed since to do so would create an island in violation of state law.
July 16, 2003
Page 2
Location: The proposed 37-acre "L" shaped Carlo Annexation is located between 1361' Avenue
SE on the west, 140`h Avenue SE on the east, NE P Street, if extended on the north, and, SE
135`h Street, if extended on the south. It is immediately east of the proposed Tydico Site
Annexation.
2. Assessed value: The assessed value at current development is $3,756,000.
3. Natural features: The site generally slopes north to south at about a 3% slope. (Figure 2,
Topography) The northeast corner of the western half of the site retains a portion of a mapped
wetland to the northeast.
4. Existing land uses: Existing development includes medium- to large -lot single family and
vacant parcels. (Figure 3, Existing Structures)
5. Existing zoning_ King County zoning is R-4. R-4 allows up to a base density of four units per
gross acre, and up to six units per acre with incentives and transfer of density credits.
6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject parcel Residential
Single Family (RS). Potential zoning under the RS designation includes R-8, 8 units per net
acre, and RMH, Residential Manufactured Housing.
7. Public services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the annexation
represents a logical extension of their respective services and systems.
Water Utility. The subject area is within the water service area of Water District #90 by
agreement under the East King County Coordinated Water System Plan. A certificate of water
availability from the District will be required prior to the issuance of development permits
within the subject area, following annexation to the City. Hydrant flow test and hydraulic
analysis of the District's system will also be required for new development in the annexed area.
The District must provide adequate water supply and pressure for new development within the
City and must meet Renton's standards for fire protection and domestic water service.
The City should verify that adequate water supply is available from the District's system for fire
protection of new development.
Sewers. The area is not currently served by sewer. Sewer exists in the Fernwood East
Subdivision abutting the site to the west. Sewers would be extended by a combination of
developer extension, local improvement districts and City capital improvement projects.
Parks. The City has a shortfall of both neighborhood and community parkland in this area.
King County owns about 39 acres of parkland, primarily undeveloped, about 3/10's of a mile to
the southeast of the proposed annexation. In the past, the County has expressed an interest in
conveying these properties to the City, with their annexation. Development of the parkland
would occur at the City's expense. Park's staff recommends re -initiating negotiations for the
transfer of these park properties to the City to offset the growing local shortfall. Increased
staffing levels, supplies and materials to maintain and operate these facilities would also be
required. The projected cost of developing and maintaining parkland to a level consistent with
the service levels in the City's Comprehensive Park, Recreation and Open Space Plan will be
included in the fiscal impact analysis, should the Council accept the 10% Notice of Intent
petition.
Fire. The area is currently served by the City under the contract with Fire District #25.

Public Works Maintenance. Maintenance staff noted that the only organized drainage is
roadside ditches. All abutting street right-of-ways are intended to be included in the annexation.
ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION:
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:
The annexation policies generally support the proposed annexation. The subject properties are
within Renton's Potential Annexation Area and are subject to development pressure. (Policies
LU-378 and LU-380) The area is available for urbanization under the King County
Comprehensive Plan, zoning and subdivision regulations. (Policy LU-380) Renton is the
logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area. (Policy LU-383) Policy LU-
388 states that, in general, the greater the contiguity with the city limits, the more favorable the
annexation. The area proposed for annexation is adjacent to the city limits along approximately
25% of its boundaries. After the inclusion of the Tydico Site to the west this would increase to
approximately 40%. Proposed boundaries also are generally identifiable in the field. (Policy
LU-388). They will be more so after the Tydico Site to the west, comes into the City.
2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives:
(from RCW 36.93.180)
a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities;
The proposed annexation would cause no disruption to the larger community.
b. Use of physical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies of water, highways, and
land contours;
Except for a small area, boundaries follow physical features.
C. Creation and preservation of logical service areas;
Not applicable.
d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries;
The boundaries are somewhat irregular but not abnormally irregular.
e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of
incorporations of cities in excess often thousand population in heavily populated urban
areas;
Not applicable.
f. Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts;
Not applicable.
g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries;
Neither the existing nor the proposed boundaries are impractical.
h. Incorporation as cities or towns or annexation to cities or towns of unincorporated areas
which are urban in character; and,
King County has designated this area for urban development.
July 16, 2003

Protection of agricultural and rural lands which are designated for long term productive
agricultural and resource use by a comprehensive plan adopted by the county legislative
authority.
Not applicable. No portions of the proposed Annexation area are rural or designated for
long term productive agricultural use in the King County Comprehensive Plan.
CONCLUSION:
The proposal is essentially consistent with City policies and Boundary Review Board objectives for
annexation. No impediments to the provision of City services to the area have been identified.
A full fiscal analysis will be conducted following receipt of a certified 50% Petition to annex, if it is the
Council's intent that the annexation proceed.

Department
STAFF CONTACT: Don Erickson (Ext. 6581)
SUBJECT: Proposed Merritt Annexation 10% Notice of Intent
ISSUE:
The City is in receipt of a Notice of Intent to annex about 4.8 acres to the City of Renton by direct
petition. (Figure 1, Vicinity Map) State law requires that the Council hold a Public Meeting with
annexation proponents to decide whether to accept, reject or geographically modify the proposal,
whether to require the assumption of bonded indebtedness and whether to require the simultaneous
adoption of zoning.
RECOMMENDATION:
On the basis of the following analysis, the Administration recommends that Council accept the 10%
Notice of Intent. If Council concurs with this recommendation, the Administration recommends that
Council take the following actions (pursuant to RCW 35A.14.120):
0 Authorize the circulation of the 50% Petition to Annex for the proposed area;
• Require the adoption of City zoning on the property consistent with the Comprehensive Plan;
and,
• Require that property owners assume a proportional share of the City's bonded indebtedness.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The annexation is comprised of a single property whose owner wishes to become a part of the City
of Renton in order to obtain sewer service and subdivide his property. Sewer is currently located nearby
in the Stonegate Subdivision immediately to the east and south of the subject annexation site. The site
was prezoned R-1 as part of the May Valley Prezone — Phase II, in 1997.
July 16, 2003
Page 2
Location: The subject area is located south of SE May Valley Road and west of Lyons Avenue
NE. It is bordered by SE 100 Street, if extended, on the south and NE 26"' Street, if extended,
on the north.
2. Assessed value: The assessed value at current development is $590,000.
Natural features: The site generally slopes north at about a 5% slope. A slight ridge exists along
its western half (Figure 2, Topography). The Cedar River Basin Plan maps a tributary to
Maplewood Creek near the western boundary, north of SE 132"d Street.
4. Existing land uses: Existing development includes a single family dwelling on the 4.8-acre site.
(Figure 3, Existing Structures)
Existingzoning: oning_ King County zoning is R-1. R-1 allows up to a base density of one unit per
gross acre, and up to six units per acre with incentives and transfer of density credits.
6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject parcel Residential
Rural (RR). The site was prezoned to R-1 pursuant to RCW 35.A.14.330 and 340, in 1997.
This zoning allows one unit per net acre and would be applied at the time of annexation.
7. Public services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the annexation
represents a logical extension of their respective services and systems.
Water Utility. The subject area is within the water service area of Water District #90 by
agreement under the East King County Coordinated Water System Plan. A certificate of water
availability from the District will be required prior to the issuance of development permits
within the subject area, following annexation to the City. Hydrant flow tests and hydraulic
analysis of the District's system will also be required for new development in the annexed area.
The District must provide adequate water supply and pressure for new development within the
City and must meet Renton's standards for fire protection and domestic water service. Prior to
development, the City should verify that adequate water supply is available from the District's
system for fire protection for new development.
Sewers. The area is not currently served by sewer. Sewers would most likely be extended by a
developer extension from near the intersection of SE 100d' Street and Lyons Avenue NE.
Parks. The City has a shortfall of both neighborhood and community parkland in this area.
King County owns about 45 acres of parkland, primarily undeveloped, in the immediate vicinity
of the proposed annexation. In the past, the County has expressed an interest in conveying these
properties to the City, with their annexation. Development of the parkland would occur at the
City's expense. Park's staff recommends re -initiating negotiations for the transfer of these park
properties to the City to offset the growing local shortfall. Increased staffing levels, supplies
and materials to maintain and operate these facilities would also be required. The projected cost
of developing and maintaining parkland to a level consistent with the service levels in the City's
Comprehensive Park, Recreation and Open Space Plan will be included in the fiscal impact
analysis, should the Council accept the 10% Notice of Intent petition.
Fire. The area is currently served by the City under the contract with Fire District #25.
Public Works Maintenance. Maintenance staff noted that the only organized drainage is
roadside ditches. The Division also noted that 140 Avenue SE is the only roadway within the
proposed boundaries that meets City standards.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City is in receipt of a 10% Notice of Intent petition to initiate a direct petition method of
annexation for approximately 31 acres located at the City limits south of NE 41h Street beginning
at the western edge of 142nd Avenue SE, if extended, on the west and including the area to east
(approximately 602 feet) to the 144th Avenue SE and including this right-of-way where it abuts
the proposed annexation site. The portion of the annexation site north of SE 132nd Street abuts
the City boundary along its west, north and eastern edges. The southern boundary of the
annexation site is SE 136th Street.
State law requires that the Council hold a meeting within 60 days of filing the 10% Notice of
Intent to Commence Annexation to consider the proposed annexation and decide whether it will
accept, modify, or reject it. If Council accepts the annexation, a resolution authorizing the
circulation of the 50% petition to annex shall be considered.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Council set a Public Meeting date for August 41h, 2003.

SUBJECT: Proposed Mossier Annexation 10% Notice of Intent
ISSUE:
The City is in receipt of a Notice of Intent to annex about 31.24 acres to the City of Renton by direct
petition. (Figure 1, Vicinity Map) State law requires that the Council hold a Public Meeting with
annexation proponents to decide whether to accept, reject or geographically modify the proposal,
whether to require the assumption of bonded indebtedness and whether to require the simultaneous
adoption of zoning.
RECOMMENDATION:
On the basis of the following analysis, the Administration recommends that Council accept the 10%
Notice of Intent. If Council concurs with this recommendation, the Administration recommends that
Council take the following actions (pursuant to RCW 35A.14.120):
• Authorize the circulation of the 50 % Petition to Annex for the proposed area;
• Require the adoption of City zoning on the property consistent with the Comprehensive Plan;
and,
0 Require that property owners assume a proportional share of the City's bonded indebtedness.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The annexation is largely comprised of properties whose owners previously wished to be included in the
Wofford Annexation. Due to the State Supreme Court's decision invalidating the "60 percent petition"
process based upon assessed value, in March 2002, the City was forced to stop a number of annexations
under this process, including the Wofford and Maplewood Heights Annexations.. The Mossier
Annexation represents about 70% of the former Wofford Annexation area.
July 16, 2003

1. Location: The subject area is located between 142nd and 144' Avenues SE (Hoquiam and
Jericho Avenues NE), the existing City limits on the north, and SE 136`b Street on the south.
2. Assessed value: The assessed value at current development is $5,448,000.
Natural features: The site generally slopes north to south at about a 3% slope. (Figure 2,
Topography) The Cedar River Basin Plan maps a tributary to Maplewood Creek near the
western boundary, north of SE 136th Street that parallels the western property line to about SE
134d' before crossing the annexation site going east.
4. Existing land uses: Existing development includes medium- to large -lot single family and
vacant parcels. (Figure 3, Existing Structures)
5. Existingzoning: King County zoning is R-4. R-4 allows up to a base density of four units per
gross acre, and up to six units per acre with incentives and transfer of density credits.
6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject parcel Residential
Rural (RR). Potential zoning under the RR designation includes Resource Conservation (RC),
R-1 and R-5.
7. Public services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the annexation
represents a logical extension of their respective services and systems.
Water Utility. The subject area is within the water service area of Water District #90 by
agreement under the East King County Coordinated Water System Plan. A certificate of water
availability from the District will be required prior to the issuance of development permits
within the subject area, following annexation to the City. Hydrant flow test and hydraulic
analysis of the District's system will also be required for new development in the annexed area.
The District must provide adequate water supply and pressure for new development within the
City and must meet Renton's standards for fire protection and domestic water service.
Water District 90 currently provides water service within the city limits. However, the District
does not have a utility franchise to construct, maintain and operate its utility system within
Renton's rights -of -way. The City is currently working on an agreement with the District. The
City should verify that adequate water supply is available from the District's system for fire
protection for new development.
Sewers. The area is not currently served by sewer. Sewers would be extended by a
combination of developer extension, local improvement districts and City capital improvement
projects.
Parks. The City has a shortfall of both neighborhood and community parkland in this area.
King County owns about 45 acres of parkland, primarily undeveloped, in the immediate vicinity
of the proposed annexation. In the past, the County has expressed an interest in conveying these
properties to the City, with their annexation. Development of the parkland would occur at the
City's expense. Park's staff recommends re -initiating negotiations for the transfer of these park
properties to the City to offset the growing local shortfall. Increased staffing levels, supplies
and materials to maintain and operate these facilities would also be required. The projected cost
of developing and maintaining parkland to a level consistent with the service levels in the City's
Comprehensive Park, Recreation and Open Space Plan will be included in the fiscal impact
analysis, should the Council accept the 10% Notice of Intent petition.

Public Works Maintenance. Maintenance staff noted that the only organized drainage is
roadside ditches. The Division also noted that 144`h Avenue SE is the only roadway within the
proposed boundaries that meets City standards.
ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION:
(Pursuant to City Council Resolution 2429)
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:
The annexation policies generally support the proposed annexation. The subject properties are
within Renton's Potential Annexation Area and are subject to development pressure. (Policies
LU-378 and LU-380) The area is available for urbanization under the King County
Comprehensive Plan, zoning and subdivision regulations. (Policy LU-380) Renton is the
logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area. (Policy LU-383) Policy LU-
388 states that, in general, the greater the contiguity with the city limits, the more favorable the
annexation. The area proposed for annexation is adjacent to the city limits along approximately
40% of its boundaries. Proposed boundaries also are generally identifiable in the field. (Policy
LU-388)
2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives:
(from RCW 36,93.180)
a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities;
The proposed annexation would cause no disruption to the larger community.
b. Use ofphysical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies ofwater, highways, and
land contours;
Except for a small area, boundaries follow physical features.
C. Creation and preservation of logical service areas;
Not applicable.
d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries;
The boundaries are not irregular.
e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of
incorporations of cities in excess often thousand population in heavily populated urban
areas;
Not applicable.
f. Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts;
Not applicable.
g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries;
Neither the existing nor the proposed boundaries are impractical.

h. Incorporation as cities or towns or annexation to cities or towns of unincorporated areas
which are urban in character; and,
King County has designated this area for urban development.
Protection of agricultural and rural lands which are designated for long term productive
agricultural and resource use by a comprehensive plan adopted by the county legislative
authority.
Not applicable. No portions of the proposed Annexation area are rural or designated for
long term productive agricultural use in the King County Comprehensive Plan.
CONCLUSION:
The proposal is essentially consistent with City policies and Boundary Review Board objectives for
annexation. No impediments to the provision of City services to the area have been identified.
A full fiscal analysis will be conducted following receipt of a certified 50% Petition to annex, if it is the
Council's intent that the annexation proceed.

FIRE DEPARTP: ENT
Enclosed is a listing of the 2003 Basic Life Support funding amounts and a copy of
the BLS Program Plan and Operating Budget for January 1- December 31, 2003.
Please complete, sign, and return the 2003 Program Plan and Operating Budget as
soon as possible to:
King County Emergency Medical Services
999 3rd Avenue, Suite 700

Attn: Felisa Azpitarte
The Support Services Section of Public Health - Seattle & King County processes all
contracts for King County Emergency Medical Services. Support Services requires
submission and approval of the Program Plan and Operating Budget by EMS prior
to processing the BLS contracts.
Background: Calculations for the 2003 BLS funding allocations were completed
using the newly revised funding formula. Changes to the BLS funding formula
were implemented following six months of intensive review and development.
We attained consensus on the criteria for the new formula that provides a
reasonable, fair, and equitable solution to most of the issues that have emerged from
useexfethe/W6fumkMiformula, particularly the hold harmless concept.

T(206) 296-4693 F(206) 296-4866 • www.metrokc.gov/health Paul Schell, Mayor O Ron Sims, Executive
Panted on R—led Pacer.
A key element of the revised formula is the continued review and evaluation of the
formula on an annual basis to ensure that the formula is working as needed. The
EMS Division is strongly committed to continuing that review with your
department as we see how the funding formula works.
I am keenly aware that changes to an old funding formula can be challenging. It is
clear that we need to revise the hold harmless approach if fire departments are
going to see sustained increases in BLS funding in the future. The review and
development process for the revised formula has been extensive, and the EMS
Division has tried to achieve a universal consensus around the formula changes.
In addition to the BLS working group that first developed the formula, separate
presentations have been made at zone meetings, the EMS Advisory Committee, the
King County Fire Chiefs Association, and at individual meetings with fire
departments when necessary. We will be tracking these changes with you via the
annual review meetings we are planning, beginning early in 2003.
Enclosed you will find a summary sheet heet briefly describing the limitations of the
previous BLS funding formula, the objectives of the revised formula, and a
description of the revised 2003 BLS funding formula. Also enclosed are copies of the
detailed funding formula spreadsheet, along with the unincorporated ratios,
assessed valuation (AV) amounts, and call volume amounts used in the calculations.
I would like to thank all the agencies that participated in the difficult and
demanding process of reviewing and revising the BLS funding formula. This
required a significant investment of time and patience. I deeply appreciate your
efforts in helping solve the regional problems we all face with the BLS funding
formula.
If you have any questions regarding the process, or require any additional forms,
please contact Felisa Azpitarte, Assistant Manager, at (206) 296-4693 or myself at

BLS Funding Formula
Summary Sheet
Issues with the Previous BLS Funding Formula
■ Does not define urban, transitional, rural categories and when to move agencies from
one category to another.
■ Does not limit hold harmless coverage.
■ Continuation with the formula will eventually hold every agency harmless with no
ability to reflect growth.
■ Does not provide a standardized methodology, including population estimates.
Objectives for Formula Revisions
■ Address limitations of previous formula.
■ Protect smaller agencies. Groups like agencies together.
■ BLS funds are allocated proportionally.
■ Incorporate other factors (allowance for growth, large unincorporated areas, etc.).
11 /14/2002
2003 BLS Funding Formula
■ $342,598"
Allocating Agencies to Categories:
■ Step 1: Rank agencies by AV. The bottom 25th percentile is designated as the
protected 'small' group. Small group allocation equals agencies previous year's
allocation plus CPI-U.
■ Step 2: Remaining agencies are evaluated for the ratio of unincorporated to
incorporated area in each jurisdiction. The'middle group' is comprised of agencies
with a >80 ratio. Middle group allocation equals the proportion of AV to the
remaining total. The remaining agencies constitute the 'large' group and receive the
remainder of the funds.
Allocating Funds to A eg ncies:
■ Step 3: Agencies in each group are allocated BLS funds based on % of total AV and
Call Volume.
Applying Hold Harmless:
■ Step 4: Hold harmless is applied such that no agency receives less than the previous
year. The difference is covered proportionately amongst agencies receiving funding
increases.

Amount Budgeted....... $505,000.00 City Share Total Project
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The project started on November 4, 2002, and was completed on June 11, 2003. The original
contract amount was $346,941.44 with the final contract being $373,771.51. The increase is due
to the addition of two (2) change orders requiring the Contractor to hand dig all fence post holes
to avoid utilities, and hand excavate rock encountered under the Cedar River dike road.

In the event this AGREEMENT is terminated by the AGENCY other than for default on the part of
the CONSULTANT, a final payment shall be made to the CONSULTANT as shown in Exhibit F for
the type of AGREEMENT used.
No payment shall be made for any work completed after ten days following receipt by the
CONSULTANT of the Notice to Terminate. If the accumulated payment made to the CONSULTANT
prior to Notice of Termination exceeds the total amount that would be due computed as set forth
herein above, then no final payment shall be due and the CONSULTANT shall' -immediately
reimburse the AGENCY for any excess paid.
If the services of the CONSULTANT are terminated by the AGENCY for default on the part of the
CONSULTANT, the above formula for payment shall not apply. In such an event, the amount to be
paid shall be determined by the AGENCY with consideration given to the actual costs incurred by the
CONSULTANT in performing the work to the date of termination, the amount of work originally
required which was satisfactorily completed to date of termination, whether that work is in a form or
a type which is usable to the AGENCY at the time of termination; the cost to the AGENCY of
employing another firm to complete the work required and the time which maybe required to do so,
and other factors which affect the value to the AGENCY of the work performed at the time of
FA PWT 03 156 5 8 April 2003
termination. Under no circumstances shall payment made under this subsection exceed the amount
which would have been made using the formula set forth in the previous paragraph.
If it is determined for any reason that the CONSULTANT was not in default or that the
CONSULTANT's failure to perform is without it or it's employee's fault or negligence, the
termination shall be deemed to be a termination for the convenience of the AGENCY in accordance
with the provision of this AGREEMENT.
In the event of the death of any member, partner or officer of the, CONSULTANT or any of its
supervisory personnel assigned to the project, or, dissolution of the partnership, termination other
corporation, or disaffiliation of the principally involved employee, the surviving members of the
CONSULTANT hereby agree to complete the work under the terms of this AGREEMENT, if
requested to do so by the AGENCY. The subsection shall not be a bar to renegotiation of the
AGREEMENT between the surviving members of the CONSULTANT and the AGENCY, if the
AGENCY so chooses.
In the event of the death of any of the parties listed in the previous paragraph, should the surviving
members of the CONSULTANT, with the AGENCY's concurrence, desire to terminate this
AGREEMENT, payment shall be made as set forth in the second paragraph of this section.
Payment for any part of the work by the AGENCY shall not constitute a waiver by the AGENCY of
any remedies of any type it may have against the CONSULTANT for any breach of this
AGREEMENT by the CONSULTANT, or for failure of the CONSULTANT to perform work required
of it by the AGENCY. Forbearance of any rights under the AGREEMENT will not constitute waiver
of entitlement to exercise those rights with respect to any future act or omission by the
CONSULTANT.

position as that of an independent contractor, act as an extension of City staff. The
EON( "B"
10 June 5.2003
Consultant shall coordinate all his activities through the City's assigned Project Engineer.
All correspondence to property owners, public/private utilities, other public agencies, or
any other entity outside of the City of Renton's Transportation Design Services will be
done by the City.
Specific coordination tasks are listed below:
a. Permits Coordination
Complete Permits Coordination
Determine what permits will be necessary for the project and what outside
agencies need to be contacted with specific project information
b. Utility Coordination
Provide reduced size copies of the preliminary construction plans for printing and
transmittal by the City to all affected utilities. This should be done as soon as the
preliminary plans are completed to the point where the utility can ascertain the impact
on their facilities.
The Consultant will perform the coordination with PSE and other utilities for
location, relocation, and underground installation of utilities and show the existing
utilities and improvements on the plans.
C. Utility Coordination Meeting
• Attend the utility coordination meetings to discuss project and go over details
that will impact the various utilities within the project limits.
• Incorporate identified utility impacts and improvements into the contract
documents. Detailed design of utility modifications will be performed by
others.
• Assume four utility coordination meetings (90 minutes each) for budget
development purposes.
22. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND QA/QC
a. Project Management
The Consultant's assigned Project Manager shall provide appropriate dirsgtion and
guidance for the consultant's staff working on this project. Thorough oversight and
review shall be provided over the entire course of the project.
The Project Manager shall prepare and submit Monthly Progress Reports and
maintain the detailed Project Schedule. Monthly progress reports shall describe the
work underway or completed in the subject month, the status of individual tasks,
meetings attended, key milestones, critical path, monthly burden rate, i.e. percent
project expenditures versus percent project completion, and project issues of an
emergent or critical nature. Monthly Progress Reports shall provide information to
Exhibit "B"
June 5, 2003
allow the City to monitor the Consultant's project budget. The project budget will be
monitored and reported in the Monthly Progress Reports to reflect the costs.
Monthly Progress Reports shall accompany monthly invoices. This task provides for
the preparation of, attendance at, follow-up to, and documentation of various
meetings over the course of the project. These meetings will be the forum for the
City to provide input and guidance for the direction of the project. They will also be
used to discuss project issues, approve submittals, and develop potential solutions to
design issues. For budget development purposes, assume two meetings a month at
the City, of two-hour duration, from project kickoff through completion of the Final
PS&E package.
This task provides for the Consultant's development and maintenance of a system for
the filing of drawings and documents (hardcopy and electronic) generated over the
course of the project. This information will be filed in a manner that enables ready
and selective retrieval. This task provides for the development of a work plan that
defines the proposed project expenditures on a month by month basis. This will be
summarized on a task by task basis, as well as an overall total.
b. Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC)
This task shall be necessary in order to provide the City a set of final deliverables
with the maximum level of accuracy. This task will involve Consultant staff to
review and control the outgoing documents through a process of Quality Assurance
and Quality Control.
The QA/QC and peer review program has particular emphasis on technical aspects
resting with the various technical disciplines (e.g., roadway, structural, drainage,
traffic, etc.). The overriding strategy of the program is to eliminate major defects in
project work products and limit minor defects so as not to impact client acceptance or
contractor progress, and to minimize liability exposure. The program entails the
periodic review of study criteria, design, assumptions, and concepts and presentation
of product format. This helps assure that the overall project objectives are being
fulfilled.
QA/QC includes technical discipline review, lead designer review, and senior review.
Discipline reviews will be performed while the detailed technical work is in progress
(i.e., when computations are completed, when sketches and preliminary drawings
have been prepared but not yet submitted for drafting, and when specifications and
special provisions are ready for typing). Lead designers will review specific products
such as plans, reports, specifications, and other documents, at which time these
products are completed. Senior reviews will be performed for an overall task when
and as defined in the QA/QC program. Such reviews will be performed after project
packages are assembled and before they are submitted for the review to the City and
affected agencies. QA/QC efforts and reviews shall include the work performed by
the Consultant and their subconsultants.
Exhibit "B"
12 June 5, 2003
Scheduled senior reviews will be documented in a memorandum format to the Project
Manager. The Consultant's Project Manager will be responsible for adjudication of
comments/responses with respect to the project scope, budget, and schedule.

PAYMENT
(COST PLUS FIXED FEE)
The CONSULTANT shall be paid by the AGENCY for completed work and services rendered under
this AGREEMENT as provided hereinafter. Such payment shall be full compensation for all work
performed or services rendered and for all labor, materials, equipment, and incidentals necessary to
complete the work specified in Section 11, "Scope of Work." The CONSULTANT shall conform with
the applicable portion of 48 CFR 3 1.
A. Actual Costs
Payment for all consulting services for this project shall be on the basis of the
CONSULTANT's actual cost plus a fixed fee. The actual cost shall include direct salary cost,
overhead, and direct nonsalary cost.
1. Direct Salary Costs
The direct salary cost is the direct salary paid to principals, professional, technical,
and clerical personnel for the time they are productively engaged in work necessary to
fulfill the terms of this AGREEMENT.
2. Overhead Costs
Overhead costs are those costs other than direct costs which are included as such on
the books of the CONSULTANT in the normal everyday keeping of its books.
Progress payments sham be made at the rate shown in the heading of this AG, under
"Overhead Progress Payment Rate." Total over -head payment shall be based on the
method shown in the heading of the AGREEMENT. The three options are explained
as follows:
a. Actual Cost Not To Exceed Maximum Percent: If this method is indicated in
the heading of this AGREEMENT, the AGENCY agrees to reimburse the
CONSULTANT at the actual overhead rate verified by audit up to the
maximum percentage shown in the space provided. Final overhead payment
when accumulated with all other actual costs shall not exceed the total
maximum amount payable shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT.
b. Fixed Rate: If this method is indicated in the heading of the AGREEMENT,
the AGENCY agrees to reimburse the CONSULTANT for ovh.head at the
percentage rate shown. This rate shall not change during the life of the
AGREEMENT.
A summary of the CONSULTANT's cost estimate and the overhead computation are attached
hereto as Exhibit D and by this reference made part of this AGREEMENT. When an Actual
Cost method, or the Actual Cost Not To Exceed method is used, the CONSULTANT (prime
and all subconsultants) will submit to the AGENCY within three months after the end of
each firm's fiscal year, an overhead schedule in the format required by the AGENCY (cost
category, dollar expenditures, etc.) for the purpose of adjusting the overhead rate for billing
purposes. It shall be used for the computation of progress payments during the following
FA PWT 03 156 Exhibit C-1 8 April 2003
year and for retroactively adjusting the previous year's overhead cost to reflect the actual
rate.
Failure to supply this information by either the prime consultant or any of the subconsultants
shall cause the agency to withhold payment of the billed overhead costs until such time as the
required information is received and an overhead rate for billing purposes is approved.
The STATE and/or the Federal Government may perform an audit of the CONSULTANT's
books and records at any time during regular business hours to determine the actual
overhead rate, if they so desire.
Direct Nonsalary Costs
Direct nonsalary costs will be reimbursed at the actual cost to the CONSULTANT. These
charges may include, but are not limited to the following items: travel, printing, long distance
telephone, supplies, computer charges, and fees of subconsultants. Air or train travel will
only be reimbursed to economy class levels unless otherwise approved by the AGENCY.
Automobile mileage for travel will be reimbursed at the current rate approved for AGENCY
employees and shall be supported by the date and time of each trip with origin and
destination of such trips. Subsistence and lodging expenses will be reimbursed at the same
rate as for AGENCY employees. The billing for nonsalary cost, directly identifiable with the
Project, shall be an itemized listing of the charges supported by copies of original bills,
invoices, expense accounts, and miscellaneous supporting data retained by the
CONSULTANT. Copies of the original supporting documents shall be provided to the
AGENCY upon request. All of the above charges must be necessary for the services to be
provided under this AGREEMENT.
4. Fixed Fee
The fixed fee, which represents the CONSULTANT's profit, is shown in the heading of this
AGREEMENT under Fixed Fee. This amount does not include any additional fixed fee which
could be authorized from the Management Reserve Fund. This fee is based on the scope of
work defined in this AGREEMENT and the estimated man -months required to perform the
stated scope of work. In the event a supplemental agreement is entered into for additional
work by the CONSULTANT, the supplemental agreement may include provisions for the
added costs and an appropriate additional fee. The fined fee will be prorated and paid
monthly in proportion to the percentage of work completed by the CONSULTANT and
reported in the monthly progress reports accompanying the invoices.
Any portion of the fixed fee earned but not previously paid in the progress payments will be
covered in the final payment, subject to the provisions of Section IX, Termination of
Agreement
Management Reserve Fund
The AGENCY may desire to establish a Management Reserve Fund to provide the Agreement
Administrator the flexibility of authorizing additional funds to the AGREEMENT for
allowable unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the CONSULTANT for additional work beyond
that already defined in this AGREEMENT. Such authorization(s) shall be in writing and
shall not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of the Total Amount Authorized as shown in the
heading of this AGREEMENT. The amount included for the Management Reserve Fund is
shown in the heading of this agreement. This fund may be replenished in a subsequent
supplemental agreement. Any changes requiring additional costs in excess of the
"Management Reserve Fund" shall be made in accordance with Section XIV, "Extra Work."
FA PWT 03 156 Exhibit C-2 8 April 2003
6. Maximum Total Amount Payable
The maximum total amount payable, by the AGENCY to the CONSULTANT under this
AGREEMENT, shall not exceed the amount shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT.
The Maximum Total Amount Payable is comprised of the Total Amount Authorized, which
includes the Fixed Fee and the Management Reserve Fund. The Maximum Total Amount
Payable does not include payment for extra work as stipulated in Section XIV, "Extra Work."
B. Monthly Progress Payments
The CONSULTANT may submit invoices to the AGENCY for reimbursement of actual costs
plus the calculated overhead and fee not more often than once per month during the progress
of the work. Such invoices shall be in a format approved by the AGENCY and accompanied
by the monthly progress reports required under Section III, including direct salary, direct
nonsalary, and allowable overhead costs to which win be added the prorated Fixed Fee. To
provide a means of verifying the invoiced salary costs for CONSULTANT employees, the
AGENCY may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of recording the
names, titles, and present duties of those employees performing work on the PROJECT at the
time of the interview.
C. Final Payment
Final payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned will be
made promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work under
this AGREEMENT, contingent upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports, and
other related documents which are required to be furnished under this AGREEMENT.
Acceptance of such final payment by the CONSULTANT shall constitute a release of all
claims for payment which the CONSULTANT may have against the AGENCY unless such
claims are specifically reserved in writing and submitted to the AGENCY by the
CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said final payment shall not, however, be a bar to
any claims that the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to any remedies the
AGENCY may pursue with respect to such claims. The payment of any billing will not
constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and that at the time of final audit,
all required adjustments win be made and reflected in a final payment. In the event that
such final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT will
refund such overpayment to the AGENCY within ninety (90) days of notice of the
overpayment Such refund shall not constitute a waiver by the CONSULTANT for any claims
relating to the validity of a finding by the AGENCY of overpayment.
D. Inspection of Cost Records
The CONSULTANT and the subconsultants shall keep available for inspection by
representatives of the AGENCY and the United States, for a period of three years after final
payment, the cost records and accounts pertaining to this AGREEMENT and are items
related to or bearing upon these records with the following exception: if any litigation, claim,
or audit arising out of, in connection with, or related to this contract is initiated before the
expiration of the three-year period, the cost records and accounts shall be retained until such
litigation, claim, or audit involving the records is completed.

TO: Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Council President
Members of the City of Renton Council
VIA: —f�1 Jesse Tanner, Mayor
FROM: Gregg Zimmerman, Administrator
STAFF CONTACT: James P. Wilhoit, x7319
SUBJECT: Berger/Abam Engineers, Inc. Contract for
Design Services for Duvall Avenue N.E. Widening Project
ISSUE:
Council approval is needed to enter into an agreement with Berger/Abam Engineers, Inc. in order to
proceed with design on the Duvall Avenue N.E. Widening Project so construction can begin in 2005 and
be completed in 2006.
RECOMMENDATION:
Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into the agreement with Berger/ABAM Engineers,
Inc. for design services and partial right-of-way purchase for the Duvall Avenue N.E. Widening Project.
BACKGROUND:
On June 10, 2002, the Council authorized the City to enter into an agreement with the Transportation
Improvement Board (TIB) to accept grant funding for design and all consecutive phases and subsequent
elements up to and including construction of roadway for the Duvall Avenue N.E. Widening Project.
This project, along with other improvements, will widen Duvall Avenue N.E. from two lanes to five
lanes, from SR-900 (N.E. Sunset Boulevard) to the north City limits and make other improvements,
which should reduce congestion and accident frequency, raising levels of service (LOS) towards the
service standards adopted by the City to achieve compliance with the Growth Management Act (GMA).
Under this authorization the City contracted to survey this roadway and produce base maps (earlier
appropriation). Design is programmed for 2003 (to spend $269,675) and 2004 (recently approved 2004-
2009 TIP). Construction is scheduled to begin in 2005 and completed in 2006.
This project has the allocation of $570,900 for 2003. However, $59,000 of these funds is proposed to be
allocated to the design of the intersection of Sunset Blvd./Duvall Avenue. Therefore, the remaining
allocation for this project ($570,900 minus $59,000 equals $511,900) is still more than what is needed
for 2003. The attached spreadsheet provides more detailed information.

The approved TIP 2004-2009 sheet for Duvall Avenue N.E., SR-900 to North City limits includes the
City portion from SR-900 to N.E. 23rd Street. The main reason for separating the City portion indicated
in a separate contract is to keep track of the TIB grant expenditures.

EXISTING PROJECT CONDITIONS AND BACKGROUND
The proposed action involves improvements to a 0.5 mile segment of Duvall Avenue NE
between SR 900 and Renton City Limits. The roadside elements consist of variable width gravel
shoulders and variable depth drainage ditches along the northern portion. There are several
stretches of curb, gutter and sidewalks with an enclosed drainage system along the southern end.
The intersection at SR 900 is signalized. All other intersections along the project are currently
stop -sign controlled.
The proposed improvements would provide four travel lanes, accommodation for bicycles, with
cubs, gutters, and sidewalks along both sides of the roadway, channelization, a TWLTL or
median, as appropriate, drainage and water quality facilities, retaining walls. Landscaping,
illumination, signal and signal reconstruction. The project would be constructed as one
construction project with phasing. Upgrades and/or new water and sewer facilities will be
included as appropriate.

f. Prepare a traffic analysis and signal warrant analysis to determine the appropriate
design parameters for the traffic control at all intersections along the route.
g. Prepare a storm drainage analysis to determine the types, sizes, and locations of
proposed storm water quantity/quality facilities and conveyance systems.
h. Prepare a preliminary engineer's opinion of cost for the project as well as any
opinions of cost needed for comparing various alternatives.
i. It is anticipated the work in all Phases, including the Predesign Phase, will be a
collaborative effort between the City of Renton, WSDOT, FHWA, and the TIB.
This coordination will be facilitated by the formation of a Project Guidance Team to
be staffed by representatives of each of these organizations and the Consultant.
j. At the conclusion of the predesign process, a Draft Design Reportfor Duvall Avenue
will be prepared and submitted to the City of Renton for review (five bound copies).
Following one round of review by the City, submit the Final Design Report (five
bound copies). The Design Report will document all reports, studies, analyses, and
summarize the final alignment and design elements as selected by the Project
Guidance Team. The Design Report will be the basis for continuing work into the
Preliminary Design and Right -of -Way process.
2. PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND RIGHT-OF-WAY PLAN PHASE
This phase covers the preliminary design needed to produce preliminary plans based on
results of the Predesign Phase as well as produce stamped and signed right-of-way plans
for the project from the vicinity of SR 900 to the Renton City Limits including right-of-
way plans needed for storm drainage conveyance facilities, water quality/quantity facilities,
and wetland mitigation.
It is anticipated a Value Engineering Study will be required during this phase of the project.
The Consultant will participate in the Value Engineering Study for the project by staffing
the initial VE Team project briefing, responding to questions during the studyland
attending the final VE Team presentation.
All engineering reports, analyses, and plans (when submitted in final form) will be stamped
and signed by a Professional Engineer licensed by the State of Washington. Any
preliminary reports, analyses, and plans submitted for review or editing will be marked

c,
a. Land Use:
Evaluate existing land uses along both sides of the project corridor. Direct and indirect
impacts resulting from road improvements under each alternative would be evaluated.
Existing and proposed land uses and current zoning in the project area would be
identified. Generally, this includes a site visit to the project area to verify existing land
uses, and written analysis of potential project impacts and mitigation measures. This
would also include impacts related to residential or business displacements or relocations,
access disruptions, and right-of-way needs. Coordination with the City and adjacent
jurisdictions in identifying future (proposed) land uses in or near the project area would
be needed. A zoning map and/or existing land use map shall be prepared.
June 5. 2003 Exhibit "B"
Review local plans and policies to determine the proposed project's consistency with
comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance, sensitive areas ordinance, and other relevant
regulations. This requires coordination with the City to identify appropriate plans and
policies to be analyzed. This analysis may be summarized within the Land Use
discussion under separate heading of "Relationship to Plans and Policies."
b. Social Elements:
Community Impacts
Evaluation of potential changes in neighborhood cohesion and community character
as a result of possible splitting of neighborhoods, isolation of a portion of an existing
neighborhood, and the appearance of incompatible development within a
neighborhood. Identify mitigation measures to avoid or reduce potentially
significant short and long-term impacts.
2. Regional and Community Growth (Population)
Local population and growth patterns will be described, including review of current
and projected population data. A qualitative discussion of population changes
anticipated or accommodated as a result of the proposed roadway improvements
would be provided.
3. Environmental Justice and Title VI Population Groups
Identification of local populations which conform to U. S. Department of
Transportation definitions for "minority" and "low-income" would be provided.
Methods for identification include examination of current census information and
discussion with local agencies (for example: planners, social service providers, school
district officials), but would not include door-to-door visits in the project area. This
review also would include a comparison of demographic information of the people
within the study area to larger City populations to determine if any special
populations reside within the project limits that exceed the characteristics of the City
as a whole.
Based on this research, the absence or presence of special population groups shall be
documented. If such groups are present in the project area, potential impacts,
including the possibility for disproportionate adverse impacts, on these populations
would be evaluated consistent with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Mitigation measures for such impacts would be identified. c
4. Public Services and Utilities
A description of public services and utilities in the project area would be provided.
Services may include identification of schools, police, fire protection, emergency

natural gas, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and solid waste routes would be made.
Existing information on route locations as provided by the lead agency would be used
as much as possible. Potential impacts including temporary service disruptions
during construction would be identified and mitigation measures proposed.
5. Recreation
Recreational facilities including parks and trails, within the project area would be
identified. Special consideration would be given to resources that qualify as Section
4(f) facilities. Potential impacts to recreational facilities during and after construction
would be evaluated, including access to, and the usability and integrity of, existing
and proposed facilities. Mitigation measures would be identified.
6. Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities
Identification of existing and proposed pedestrian and bicycle facilities in the project
area. This would include determination of whether the project area is part of a
designated or planned bicycle route or trail or if such routes or trails cross the project
corridor. The relative amount of use of these facilities would be generally described,
however, this would not include pedestrian and bicycle counts unless specifically
required by the lead agency. Mitigation measures would be identified.
Visual Quality: Analysis of potential visual impacts of the proposed project will be
provided. A general assessment of project impacts on viewers in the project area will
be made. One field visit will be made to define the visual environment and identify
sensitive viewer groups based on a representative number, location, and duration of
visually sensitive viewpoints. Photographs of key views from these viewpoints will be
provided. A general, qualitative discussion of visual impacts both during construction
and operation of the proposed project will be provided. This assessment would relate
to impacts at key view locations and to specific viewer groups, and may include
generalized discussion of how headlight light and glare, highway lighting or other
lighting, could affect local views and viewers. Proposed mitigation measures,
including potential landscape treatments would be discussed.
d. Economics: Existing economic conditions in the project area would be described using
current applicable information and data (such as number and type of businesses,
employment, property values, tax base). Impacts of the proposed project would be
described, including construction -period economic impacts, temporary an4long-term
changes in traffic associated with shopping patterns, loss of businesses and jobs as a
result of right-of-way acquisition, construction and long-term employment, and
business growth. Existing information would be used as much as possible and a
qualitative discussion of potential impacts would be provided to the extent that such a
description would be adequate. Measures to mitigate significant adverse impacts on
economic activity or employment would be proposed.
Assemble this material into a Draft Socioeconomic Assessment Report. Provide eight
copies of the draft document to the City for review. Finalize the report based on one round
of City reviews and submit eight copies of the Final Socioeconomic Assessment Report.

9. AIR QUALITY ANALYSIS
The purposes of the Air Quality Report is to identify any significant impacts and necessary
mitigation measures, and to determine conformity with pertinent air quality rules. The air
quality modeling assessment will meet the requirements of federal and state conformity
regulations and the procedures in EPA's Guideline for Modeling Carbon Monoxide from
Roadway Intersections (1992), and will provide a project -level conformity determination
for the project.
a. After review of the proposed project alternatives and the results of the traffic analysis,
the Consultant will select intersections for project -level air quality modeling. The
Consultant shall visit the project area to assess the presence of potentially sensitive
receivers and to measure the physical parameters of the selected intersections.
b. Traffic Impact Evaluation: The Consultant will conduct an air quality impact analysis
using approved regulatory models and modeling techniques. This analysis will include
use of the latest MOBILE series emission factor prediction model and version 2 of the
CAL3QHC dispersion model. In this process the Consultant will coordinate as
necessary with the appropriate regulatory agencies. The modeling will calculate carbon
monoxide (CO) concentrations near each intersection for the -following scenarios: (1)
existing conditions; (2) opening and design year No Action; and (3) opening and design
year with a single worst -case selected from the four (4) build alternatives. The scenario
to be considered with modeling will be selected after review of predicted traffic
conditions, and in consultation with the City. Note that even a comprehensive analysis
of only one configuration alternative may not provide definitive findings regarding the
air quality conformity of the other alternatives.
c. Mitigation Analysis: In the event the impact analysis modeling indicates the project
would cause significant air quality impacts, it will be necessary to quantitatively
consider mitigation measures for each of the intersections where impacts are expected.
For purposes of estimating a budget, the Consultant shall assume it will be necessary to
model mitigation measures at all four affected intersections for the worst -case of the
build alternatives, and will allow one (1) day for the iterative process of CAL3QHC and
Synchro modeling.
d. Air Quality Technical Study: The Consultant will prepare a draft technical air quality
report to document the methods and the results of the impact and mitigation analyses
and to provide a conformity statement for the project. City will review the draft report
and prepare consolidated comments. The Consultant will incorporate the City's
comments into a final technical report
Assemble this material into a Draft Air Conformity Analysis Report. Provide eight copies
of the draft document to the City for review. Finalize the report based on one round of City
reviews and submit eight copies of the Final Air Conformity Analysis Report.
10. TRAFFIC NOISE
The purposes of the Traffic Noise Report are to evaluate traffic noise levels at sensitive
receptors near the project that would be potentially affected by traffic noise, and to identify
potential mitigation measures. The Traffic Noise Report will be developed in accordance with
the Washington State Department of Transportation's Environmental Procedures Manual.
12 June 5. 2003 Exhibit "B"
a. Existing Conditions/Sound Level Measurements:
After review of the proposed project alternatives the Consultant shall visit the project
area to identify potentially sensitive noise receivers and to take measurements of
existing sound levels. The Consultant will measure existing noise levels at five to ten
receptor sites between approximately 6 AM and 6 PM. Each measurement of existing
noise will last at least 15 minutes. The Consultant will measure the Leq, minimum,
maximum, and other pertinent statistical measures of noise with Type 1 sound level
equipment. During these measurements, sources of existing noise and topographical
features will be noted and traffic speeds and vehicle numbers and mix will be
estimated where possible.
b. Construction Noise Impact Evaluation:
The noise analysis will evaluate potential short-term impacts of noise from
construction activities. Construction noise on nearby sensitive receptors will be
evaluated based on estimates published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) of maximum noise levels of typical construction equipment in conjunction
with simple distance attenuation. Computer modeling of construction noise levels
will not be performed.
c. Traffic Noise Impact Evaluation:
The Consultant will evaluate traffic noise impacts using the FHWA Traffic Noise
Model (TTVIvI) to estimate future traffic noise levels for the worst -case build
alternative. The worst -case scenario will be selected from among the build
alternatives, and will be chosen based on expected future traffic volumes and the
location of the alignment relative to sensitive receivers. The noise modeling will
predict PM peak -hour Leq noise levels from traffic at a maximum of thirty (30)
receptor locations that could be affected by the proposed project, and will consider
existing conditions and design year conditions. Modeling to calculate noise contour
lines is not included.
d. Mitigation Analysis:
The Consultant will identify mitigation measures to reduce noise levels during
construction. If predicted long-term traffic noise levels from operation of the project
would cause noise impacts, mitigation measures will be developed in cooperation
with the lead agency and design engineers. Mitigation analysis, if required, will
include evaluation of the effectiveness and general size and location of natural and
man-made noise barriers using the TNM model.
Noise level Technical Study:
The Consultant will prepare a draft technical noise report to document the methods and
the results of the impact and mitigation analyses. City will review the draft report and
prepare consolidated comments. The Consultant will incorporate the City's comments
into a final technical report
Assemble this material into a Draft Traffic Noise Report. Provide eight copies of the draft
document to the City for review. Finalize the report based on one round of City reviews
and submit eight copies of the Final Traffic Noise Analysis Report.

12. BIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT
The Consultant shall coordinate with the City to address potential project impacts to
sensitive species, particularly with respect to applicable requirements of the Endangered
Species Act (ESA).
Federal permits will be needed and therefore this project will require ESA Section 7
concurrence from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (USFWS). The consultant will confirm which species are federally listed
by NWS and USFWS. The CONSULTANT will also provide the with priority species
and habitat information from (1) the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife
(WDFW), Priority Habitats and Species Program, (2) the Washington Department of
Natural Resources (WDNR), Washington Natural Heritage Program, and (3) the City GIS.
The Consultant shall review this information, as well as other appropriate sources of
information from existing literature and data resources, in conjunction with any necessary
field reconnaissance.
In conjunction with other sensitive areas site reconnaissance activities, the Consultant shall
verify the presence and availability of potential habitat for species of concern in the project
action area. These may require confirmation of potential habitat for bald eagles and other
federally listed species beyond the immediate project area.
The Consultant will prepare required documentation for ESA compliance. Documentation
for consistency with the ESA will consist of a Biological Assessment pursuant to section 7
of the ESA. For budgeting purposes, it is assumed that a biological assessment will be
required.
If a Biological Assessment is required, the report will be prepared consistent with the
Exhibit "B"
14 June 5 2003

• Existing ground and proposed profile.
• Legend.
• Property ownerships and parcel numbers (provided by the City).
Draft and final right-of-way submittals shall be submitted to the City. Eight sets of each
submittal will be assembled by the Consultant.
g. The Consultant will conduct the Right-of-way negotiations in coordination with the
City. There are 34 parcels along the existing alignment that have less than 50 feet of
ROW width from the existing centerline. For the purposes of this scope, the
Consultant assumes that 30 parcels will require a partial take of property. A meeting
will be held with each of these parcel property owners to present an offer. It is
assumed that 20 of the parcels will require a second meeting. Each of the 30 parcels
identified as requiring a partial parcel take will require a project funding estimate be
prepared.
16. MEETINGS
Throughout all phases of the project, a number of various meetings are anticipated. These
will include regular meetings between the Consultant and City staff; Project Guidance
Team meetings; as -needed meetings with various agencies, partners, property
owners/tenants and other interested parties; Washington State Department of
Transportation, city councils; and one or more public meetings.

21. COORDINATION
It is the intent of this Agreement that the Consultant shall, notwithstanding the Consultant's
position as that of an independent contractor, act as an extension of City staff. The
Consultant shall coordinate all his activities through the City's assigned Project Engineer.
All correspondence to property owners, public/private utilities, other public agencies, or
any other entity outside of the City of Renton's Transportation Design Services will be
done by the City.
Specific coordination tasks are listed below:
a. Permits Coordination
Complete Permits Coordination
Determine what permits will be necessary for the project and what outside
agencies need to be contacted with specific project information. Those permits
necessary through DDES will be coordinated by the County, with the
documentation provided by the Consultant. (This work will performed in
conjunction with Task 6. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION AND
PERMITTING above.)
b. Utility Coordination
Provide reduced size copies of the preliminary construction plans for printing and
transmittal by the City to all affected utilities. This should be done as soon as the
preliminary plans are completed to the point where the utility can ascertain the impact
on their facilities.
The Consultant will perform the coordination with PSE and other utilities for
location, relocation, and underground installation of utilities and show the existing
utilities and improvements on the plans.
C. Utility Coordination Meeting
• Attend the utility coordination meetings to discuss project and go over details
that will impact the various utilities within the project limits.
• Incorporate identified utility impacts and improvements into the contract
documents. Detailed design of utility modifications will be performed by
others.
• Assume four utility coordination meetings (90 minutes each) for budget
development purposes.
d. Interagency Agreement
The Consultant will develop a supplement to the interagency agreement between the
City and the County to be used as the basis for negotiating the sharing of costs
associated with the development and construction of this project.
Exhibit "B"
22 June 5, 2003
22. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND QA/QC
a. Project Management
The Consultant's assigned Project Manager shall provide appropriate direction and
guidance for the consultant's staff working on this project. Thorough oversight and
review shall be provided over the entire course of the project.
The Project Manager shall prepare and submit Monthly Progress Reports and
maintain the detailed Project Schedule. Monthly progress reports shall describe the
work underway or completed in the subject month, the status of individual tasks,
meetings attended, key milestones, critical path, monthly burden rate, i.e. percent
project expenditures versus percent project completion, and project issues of an
emergent or critical nature. Monthly Progress Reports shall provide information to
allow the City to monitor the Consultant's project budget. The project budget will be
monitored and reported in the Monthly Progress Reports to reflect the costs incurred
by the County and those costs incurred by the City. Furthermore, the project budget
will be monitored and reported to reflect that portion of the project that is federally
funded, specifically, the intersection of SR 900 and Duvall Avenue NE. Current task
status as well as projections of costs to complete shall be shown. This is intended to
help monitor costs and budget increases or scope modifications or reductions.
Monthly Progress Reports shall accompany monthly invoices. This task provides for
the preparation of, attendance at, follow-up to, and documentation of various
meetings over the course of the project. These meetings will be the forum for the
City to provide input and guidance for the direction of the project. They will also be
used to discuss project issues, approve submittals, and develop potential solutions to
design issues. For budget development purposes, assume two meetings a month at
the City, of two-hour duration, from project kickoff through completion of the Final
PS&E package.
This task provides for the Consultant's development and maintenance of a system for
the filing of drawings and documents (hardcopy and electronic) generated over the
course of the project. This information will be filed in a manner that enables ready
and selective retrieval. This task provides for the development of a work plan that
defines the proposed project expenditures on a month by month basis. This will be
summarized on a task by task basis, as well as an overall total.
b. Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC)
This task shall be necessary in order to provide the City a set of final deliverables
with the maximum level of accuracy. This task will involve Consultant staff to
review and control the outgoing documents through a process of Quality Assurance
and Quality Control.
The QA/QC and peer review program has particular emphasis on technical aspects
resting with the various technical disciplines (e.g., roadway, structural, drainage,
traffic, etc.). The overriding strategy of the program is to eliminate major defects in
23
Exhibit "B"
June S. 2001
project work products and limit minor defects so as not to impact client acceptance or
contractor progress, and to minimize liability exposure. The program entails the
periodic review of study criteria, design, assumptions, and concepts and presentation
of product format. This helps assure that the overall project objectives are being
fulfilled.
QA/QC includes technical discipline review, lead designer review, and senior review.
Discipline reviews will be performed while the detailed technical work is in progress
(i.e., when computations are completed, when sketches and preliminary drawings
have been prepared but not yet submitted for drafting, and when specifications and
special provisions are ready for typing). Lead designers will review specific products
such as plans, reports, specifications, and other documents, at which time these
products are completed. Senior reviews will be performed for an overall task when
and as defined in the QA/QC program. Such reviews will be performed after project
packages are assembled and before they are submitted for the review to the City and
affected agencies. QA/QC efforts and reviews shall include the work performed by
the Consultant and their subconsultants.
Scheduled senior reviews will be documented in a memorandum format to the Project
Manager. The Consultant's Project Manager will be responsible for adjudication of
comments/responses with respect to the project scope, budget, and schedule.
ARTICLE VI

this AGREEMENT as provided hereinafter. Such payment shall be full compensation for all work
performed or services rendered and for all labor, materials, equipment, and incidentals necessary to
complete the work specified in Section 11, "Scope of Work." The CONSULTANT shall conform with
the applicable portion of 48 CFR 3 1.
A. Actual Costs
Payment for all consulting services for this project shall be on the basis of the
CONSULTANT's actual cost plus a fixed fee. The actual cost shall include direct salary cost,
overhead, and direct nonsalary cost.
1. Direct Salary Costs
The direct salary cost is the direct salary paid to principals, professional, technical,
and clerical personnel for the time they are productively engaged in work necessary to
fulfill the terms of this AGREEMENT.
2. Overhead Costs
Overhead costs are those costs other than direct costs which are included as such on
the books of the CONSULTANT in the normal everyday keeping of its books.
Progress payments sham be made at the rate shown in the heading of this AG, under
Overhead Progress Payment Rate." Total over -head payment shall be based on the
method shown in the heading of the AGREEMENT. The three options are explained
as follows:
a. Actual Cost Not To Exceed Maximum Percent: If this method is indicated in
the heading of this AGREEMENT, the AGENCY agrees to reimburse the
CONSULTANT at the actual overhead rate verified by audit upto the
maximum percentage shown in the space provided. Final overhead payment
when accumulated with all other actual costs shall not exceed the total
maximum amount payable shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT.
b. Fixed Rate: If this method is indicated in the heading of the REEMENT,
the AGENCY agrees to reimburse the CONSULTANT for ovhead at the
percentage rate shown. This rate shall not change during the life of the
AGREEMENT.
A summary of the CONSULTANT's cost estimate and the overhead computation are attached
hereto as Exhibit D and by this reference made part of this AGREEMENT. When an Actual
Cost method, or the Actual Cost Not To Exceed method is used, the CONSULTANT (prime
and all subconsultants) will submit to the AGENCY within three months after the end of
each firm's fiscal year, an overhead schedule in the format required by the AGENCY (cost
category, dollar expenditures, etc.) for the purpose of adjusting the overhead rate for billing
purposes. It shall be used for the computation of progress payments during the following
FA PWT 03 156 Exhibit C-1 8 April 2003
year and for retroactively adjusting the previous year's overhead cost to reflect the actual
rate.
Failure to supply this information by either the prime consultant or any of the subconsultants
shall cause the agency to withhold payment of the billed overhead costs until such time as the
required information is received and an overhead rate for billing purposes is approved.
The STATE and/or the Federal Government may perform an audit of the CONSULTANT's
books and records at any time during regular business hours to determine the actual
overhead rate, if they so desire.
Direct Nonsalary Costs
Direct nonsalary costs will be reimbursed at the actual cost to the CONSULTANT. These
charges may include, but are not limited to the following items: travel, printing, long distance
telephone, supplies, computer charges, and fees of subconsultants. Air or train travel will
only be reimbursed to economy class levels unless otherwise approved by the AGENCY.
Automobile mileage for travel will be reimbursed at the current rate approved for AGENCY
employees and shall be supported by the date and time of each trip with origin and
destination of such trips. Subsistence and lodging expenses will be reimbursed at the same
rate as for AGENCY employees. The billing for nonsalary cost, directly identifiable with the
Project, shall be an itemized listing of the charges supported by copies of original bills,
invoices, expense accounts, and miscellaneous supporting data retained by the
CONSULTANT. Copies of the original supporting documents shall be provided to the
AGENCY upon request. All of the above charges must be necessary for the services to be
provided under this AGREEMENT.
Fixed Fee
The fixed fee, which represents the CONSULTANT's profit, is shown in the heading of this
AGREEMENT under Fixed Fee. This amount does not include any additional fixed fee which
could be authorized from the Management Reserve Fund. This fee is based on the scope of
work defined in this AGREEMENT and the estimated man -months required to perform the
stated scope of work. In the event a supplemental agreement is entered into for additional
work by the CONSULTANT, the supplemental agreement may include provisions for the
added costs and an appropriate additional fee. The fixed fee will be prorated and paid
monthly in proportion to the percentage of work completed by the CONSULTANT and
reported in the monthly progress reports accompanying the invoices.
Any portion of the fixed fee earned but not previously paid in the progress payments will be
covered in the final payment, subject to the provisions of Section IX, Termination of
Agreement
5. Management Reserve Fund
The AGENCY may desire to establish a Management Reserve Fund to provide the Agreement
Administrator the flexibility of authorizing additional funds to the AGREEMENT for
allowable unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the CONSULTANT for additional work beyond
that already defined in this AGREEMENT. Such authorization(s) shall be in writing and
shall not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of the Total Amount Authorized as shown in the
heading of this AGREEMENT. The amount included for the Management Reserve Fund is
shown in the heading of this agreement. This fund may be replenished in a subsequent
supplemental agreement. Any changes requiring additional costs in excess of the
"Management Reserve Fund" shall be made in accordance with Section XIV, "Extra Work."
FA PWT 03 156 F,xhibit C-2 8 April 2003
6. Maximum Total Amount Payable
The maximum total amount payable, by the AGENCY to the CONSULTANT under this
AGREEMENT, shall not exceed the amount shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT.
The Maximum Total Amount Payable is comprised of the Total Amount Authorized, which
includes the Fixed Fee and the Management Reserve Fund. The Maximum Total Amount
Payable does not include payment for extra work as stipulated in Section XIV, "Extra Work."
B. Monthly Progress Payments
The CONSULTANT may submit invoices to the AGENCY for reimbursement of actual costs
plus the calculated overhead and fee not more often than once per month during the progress
of the work. Such invoices shall be in a format approved by the AGENCY and accompanied
by the monthly progress reports required under Section III, including direct salary, direct
nonsalary, and allowable overhead costs to which win be added the prorated Fixed Fee. To
provide a means of verifying the invoiced salary costs for CONSULTANT employees, the
AGENCY may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of recording the
names, titles, and present duties of those employees performing work on the PROJECT at the
time of the interview.
C. Final Payment
Final payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned will be
made promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work under
this AGREEMENT, contingent upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports, and
other related documents which are required to be furnished under this AGREEMENT.
Acceptance of such final payment by the CONSULTANT shall constitute a release of all
claims for payment which the CONSULTANT may have against the AGENCY unless such
claims are specifically reserved in writing and submitted to the AGENCY by the
CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said final payment shall not, however, be a bar to
any claims that the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to any remedies the
AGENCY may pursue with respect to such claims. The payment of any billing will not
constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and that at the time of final audit,
all required adjustments win be made and reflected in a final payment. In the event that
such final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT will
refund such overpayment to the AGENCY within ninety (90) days of notice of the
overpayment Such refund shall not constitute a waiver by the CONSULTANT for any claims
relating to the validity of a finding by the AGENCY of overpayment.
D. Inspection of Cost Records
The CONSULTANT and the subconsultants shall keep available for inspection by
representatives of the AGENCY and the United States, for a period of three years after final
payment, the cost records and accounts pertaining to this AGREEMENT and are items
related to or bearing upon these records with the following exception: if any litigation, claim,
or audit arising out of, in connection with, or related to this contract is initiated before the
expiration of the three-year period, the cost records and accounts shall be retained until such
litigation, claim, or audit involving the records is completed.

and construction for the widening/improvement of Duvall Avenue NE directly north of the City's
Duvall Avenue NE Widening Project (between the Renton north city limits and the City of
Newcastle south city limits at SE 95`h Way).
The City desires to enter into an agreement with King County to combine its project with the
County's TIB-funded project under the project management of the City of Renton. The County
will fund its share of both design and construction. The Transportation Division has selected
Berger/Abam to design the project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

(SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Engineer's Estimate: $577,269.50
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
In accordance with Council procedure, bids submitted at the subject bid opening met the following
criteria: There was more than one bid, and there were no irregularities. The low bid submitted by
Lakeside Industries in the amount of $714,270.26, however, was above the amount budgeted for the
project.
Since the low bid exceeds the engineer's estimate for the project, staff recommends that funds totaling
$200,000 be reallocated to cover the additional costs, bringing the total appropriation for the project to
$723,740. Available sources for the funding are: $96,000 from the Oakesdale Phase 2 project, and
$104,000 from the City's share of the new signal to be installed by King County at the Benson Rd. S./S.
31st St. intersection.
Council procedure requires committee review when the low bid exceeds the budgeted amount for the
project; however, in the interest of meeting the tight construction schedule for this project, staff requests
that Council waive review of this condition and approve the reallocation of funds as stated above and
award the project to Lakeside Industries in the amount of $714,270.26.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 10, 2003
TO: Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
VIA: Jesse Tanner, Mayor
FROM: Bonnie Walton, City Clerk
STAFF CONTACT: Bill Wressell, x7400
SUBJECT: 2003 Overlay
Bids were opened June 25, 2003, with a total of five (5) bids received. The bids have
been reviewed for correctness with the tabulation of bids attached.
All bids were found to be responsive and responsible, with no irregularities, with the
exception of the bid from Western Asphalt, Inc., which had a typing error in the Schedule
of Prices, Schedule "A". The written bid for Traffic Control was three thousand dollars,
but the number was 3300. Western was the highest bidder of the five bidders, and was
$158,253.35 higher than the lowest bidder, and $14,034.52 higher than the fourth highest
bidder. The opinion of the Transportation Division staff is that correcting the $300 error
in Western's bid would not affect the bid outcome, so this slight irregularity should be
disregarded.
Schedule "A" is to be funded from utilities sources, and Schedule `B" is to be funded by
the TIP 2003 Overlay. The Engineers Estimate for the contract was $577,269.50
($20,498.95 for Schedule "A" and $556,770.55 for Schedule `B"). The low bid was
$714,270.26 ($10,253.91 for Schedule "A" and $704,016.35 for Schedule `B"). The
Schedule `B" portion of this bid exceeded the estimate by $147,245.86 and available
funds by $180,276.35. The bids exceeded the estimate due to higher than anticipated
asphalt, traffic control, mobilization, and finish and clean-up costs. In order to ensure
there are adequate funds to cover all programmed overlay work in the contract and any
contingencies, $200,000 must be transferred from other projects in the Transportation
Division's 2003 appropriation. Available sources for this funding are: $96,000 from
Oakesdale Phase 2 (project completed) and $104,000 from the City's share of the new
signal to be installed by the County at the intersection of Benson Road South and South
31st Street (payment to the County would be deferred into 2004).
While it is normal policy when the low bid exceeds available funds to refer award to the
Transportation Committee, the Transportation Division strongly urges that the Council
CADocuments and Settings\mpetersenM ocal Settings\Temp\Councilconcuroverlay2003.doc
make an exception in this case and waive the policy and go directly to the "Council
Concur" step, primarily due to time critical issues. Due to its contracted work schedule,
the low bidder, Lakeside Industries, is not available for the Renton work in September.
Because of the time it would take for this award to go through Transportation Committee
review prior to a Council Concurrence vote, there is a risk of missing much of this
construction season if we do not bypass this step. The selected streets for the overlay are
in poor shape and an overlay is needed. Delaying this year's program would result in
further deterioration. For these reasons, and since projects have been identified from
which we can transfer the necessary funding (see above), expediting the process by
bypassing the Transportation Committee review should be warranted.
Accordingly, the Transportation Division recommends reallocation of funds in the
amounts of $96,000 from Oakesdale Phase 2 and $104,000 from the City's share of the
new signal to be installed by the County at the Benson Road South/South 31" Street
intersection, for a total of $200,000, to the 2003 Overlay, and award the contract to
Lakeside Industries for the amount of $714,270.26.

Blvd 2003 allocation)
($390,440 previously spent and allocated) Revenue Generated $300,000 PE
Project Budget $762,440 (PE) City Share Total Project $462,440 PE
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
As the preliminary design has progressed, conditions have changed necessitating additional work outside the
initial scope of the project. The project limits have increased in the vicinity of I-405 (approximately 900 feet
further east), requiring a considerable amount of field surveys, base maps, engineering work, and design plans
that were not scoped.
The allocation for this project in 2003 is $250,000. $390,000 was previously spent using previous
allocations. Therefore, the amount budgeted is $640,000. The transfer of $122,000 from the Strander project
allocation in 2003 will cover additional expenditure required for preliminary engineering. The Strander
project is estimated to only spend $400,000 in 2003. The 2003 allocation for Strander is $1,610,000. The
attached spreadsheet provides more detailed information.
A detailed discussion of the supplement was discussed at the Transportation Committee on June 26th. The
Committee Members present agreed with staff recommendation for funding and to present the supplement
as a Council concur item on the agenda.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Transportation Division staff recommends Council to approve a budget adjustment in the transportation
Capital Improvement Fund (317) to transfer $122,000 from the SW 271" Street/Strander Blvd. project into the
SR 169 HOV/140t" Way SE to SR 900 project. The Transportation Division staff further recommends
Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Supplemental Agreement with Perteet
Engineering Inc. in the amount of $121,884.

Supplemental Agreement with Perteet Engineering, Inc.
ISSUE:
Approval of the Supplemental Agreement for additional preliminary engineering services to
complete the plans and specifications for the project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and. City Clerk to execute the Supplemental Agreement with Perteet
Engineering, Inc. for additional preliminary engineering services in the amount of $121,884.
BACKGROUND:
As the preliminary design has progressed, conditions have changed necessitating additional work
outside the initial scope of the project. The project limits have increased in the vicinity of I-405
(approximately 900 feet further east), requiring considerable amount of field surveys, base maps,
engineering work, and design plans that were not originally scoped..
From the traffic analysis done for the project, it indicated the road tapers needed to be extended
at the 1401h Way SE/SR 169 intersection. This created the project to be within 200 feet of the
Cedar River and additional environmental work was needed to submit a Shoreline Substantial
Development application to King County. The project was not originally scoped to be within the
200 foot buffer area of the Cedar River.
The additional work has caused the project timeline to extend one and a half years past what was
expected. The Supplement Agreement will amend the basic agreement to include the additional
work at a cost of $121,884. The Original and Supplement Agreement will complete the plans
and specifications of the project. The current schedule is to have this work completed by August
31, 2003.

FUNDING:
The allocation for this project in 2003 is $250,000. Allocations previously spent have been
$390,000. Therefore, the amount budgeted is $640,000. The revised total budget for Preliminary
Engineering (PE) for this project is now estimated to be $762,440. A budget adjustment in the
Transportation Capital Improvement Fund (317) to transfer $122,000 from the SW 27`h/Strander
project allocation in 2003 will cover additional expenditure required. The Strander project is
estimated to spend $400,000 of its $1,610,000 appropriation in 2003. Staff purposes to restore
the Strander appropriation in 2004 with 2004 revenues from the per capita business license fee.

Proj. Length: N/A Proj: 12175
Type: 2 - MULTI -MODAL / TDM RANK: 4 CONTACT: Rob Lochmiller 425.430.7303
DESCRIPTION:
Construct queue jumps and bypass lanes that provide transit priority traffic signal improvements on the
Maple Valley Highway (SR-169) at 140th Way SE and near the 1-405 vicinity. Involves roadway
widening at intersection approaches and modifications to channelization and traffic signals. Also
includes widening to improve the north -bound on ramp and south -bound off ramp movement at the
1-405/SR 169 interchange. Improve access to Cedar River Park and Stoneway site through traffic
JUSTIFICATION:
This is a high volume, high congestion corridor where providing travel time benefits for transit and
car/van pools can be achieved with high cist effectiveness. Also there are severe congestion and safety
problems that can be addressed by adding a right turn lane west -bound on SR-169 and a protected right
turn lane from the 1-405 northbound off ramp on to east -bound SR-169.
STATUS:
WSDOT has committed $300,000 to design and an additional $450,000 to construction.
King County committed approximately $275,000 to this project by constructing a holding
pond at 140th Way SE for our use. The project is at 60% design.
CHANGES:
Received TEA-21 Countywide grant of $392,947 for construction. Some of the City
money funded in 2007 and 2008 is for match money for proposed grants. 2003 is higher
than appropriation, partially due to early payment to Parks.

Scope of Services
City of Renton
Maple Valley Highway (SR 169)
1401h Way SE Intersection Improvements
Vicinity of I-405 Northbound Freeway Ramps
INTRODUCTION
The objective of the project is to design and construct high occupancy vehicle (HOV) queue jumps and
bypass lanes and provide transit priority traffic signal improvements on the Maple Valley Highway (SR
169) at 140th Way S.E. and east of the I-405 northbound freeway ramps. The project involves roadway
widening at intersection approaches and modifications to channelization and traffic signals and also
includes widening to improve the northbound on- and off -ramp movement at the I-405/SR 169 interchange.
As originally scoped, the project design efforts were based on preliminary scope of services contained in
the February, 1997 report "Arterial HOV Project Pre -Design Report". Specifically, the concepts shown on
Figure 12b as Alternative 6 were to be developed in the I-405/SR 169 interchange area.
INTENT
As the project preliminary design has progressed, conditions have changed necessitating this supplement.
• The selected construction alternative for SR 169 has led to the need to design site improvements for the
Cedar River Park to replace parking lost due to the construction.
• A new access street will be constructed that will provide the primary access into the park along the
property line between the park and the adjacent Stoneway site. The Stoneway site will also use this
street as their primary access into their property as that property is redeveloped.
• The project limits have increased for the project in the vicinity of I405. The project now extends
approximately 900 feet further east than originally scoped, requiring additional field surveys, base
mapping, as well as additional design plans.
• The design tapers at the 140`h Way SE intersection have encroached into the 200-foot zone from the
river, and a shoreline permit is required.
The scope of services of the basic agreement is amended to include the following scope,
f services items.
All provisions of the basic agreement remain in effect except as expressly modified by this supplement.
SUPPLEMENTAL SCOPE OF SERVICES
1. CEDAR RIVER PARK SITE WORK
1.1 Assist the City in illustrating how the improvements to SR 169 and the proposed park site work
measures are compatible with the development of the swimming pool complex. Prepare
Supplemental Agreement No. 1 Maple Valley Highway (SR 169)
Prepared by Perteet Engineering, Inc. Page 2
illustrative graphics and handouts using existing project aerial photographs, and information from
the swimming pool consultant for use at a single pool project workshop.
1.2 Prepare construction plans for the site redevelopment work Prepare plans ands specifications in
sufficient detail to allow the City to meet its mitigation requirements. It is required that all parking needed
to be taken out to complete the SR169 Project must be designed and eventually constructed. The
supplement allows the design of this parking mitigation. If it is decided to make this part of the pool
construction project, a separate agenda bill will be put through for Council approval.
1.21 Parking Lot Civil Site Plan: Prepare a civil site plan for the parking lot showing layout
dimensions, radius's, horizontal controls, landscaped areas, details and notes. Prepare a grading
plan showing finish grade elevations, top of curb and retaining wail elevations, and catch points
where needed. A typical parking lot cross-section will be prepared which clarifies site -grading
work. The plans will show the catch basin locations, pipe size, lengths and invert elevations,
connections and details.
1.22 Paving and Striping Plan: Prepare a paving plan showing paving limits, typical structural
pavement section, parking lot striping, and details.
1.23 Temporary Erosion & Sedimentation Control (TESC) Plan: Prepare plans showing TESC
measures, such as silt fences, sediment traps and sizes, inlet protection, construction entrance
details, and notes. Calculations will be prepared for sizing the sediment traps.
1.24 Parking Lot Landscape Plan: Meet with Parks Department to determine preferred plantings.
Prepare plans for planting and irrigation systems.
1.25 Li hting and Electrical: Design parking lot lighting that conforms to existing lighting levels,
and that uses identical fixtures to existing fixtures on site. It is assumed that only one or two new
luminaries will be needed, and that the existing electrical service will be adequate to support the
additional lights. Undergrounding of existing overhead power is not included in this scope of
services. Lighting on the access road will conform to lighting levels required by the City for
commercial access streets.
2. SURVEYING
WSDOT requires that project surveying extend approximately 300 feet beyond the construction limits
for work on state highways. Perteet Engineering will supplement the surveying and basemapping work
conducted previously, extending the effort approximately 900-feet further east from the I-405/SR169
interchange. This is being conducted in order to accommodate the new combined access point to the
existing Stoneway site for both the Cedar River Park and the. Stoneway site, and to implement the
concepts shown on the project channelization plan.
The supplemental mapping will include storm water, water supply, acid general topographic
information. The Consultant will conduct a field survey to acquire this data to create a basemap suitable
for both preliminary and final design.
Supplemental Agreement No. 1 Maple Valley Highway (SR 169)
Prepared by Perteet Engineering, lnc.Page 3
a. Field Survey. Establish permanent benchmarks at the beginning, midpoint and end of the area
covered by this supplement. Conduct control survey through the project limits locating: plat
monumentation, existing right-of-way and centerline monuments; and establish control points for
topographic surveys. Conduct a topographic survey of SR 169 100-feet to either side of the existing
centerline, locating above -ground evidence of underground utilities, overhead utilities, pavement
limits and elevations, and other visible improvements.
• Cross -sections at 25-foot intervals, 200-feet in total width for the 900-feet of additional project
length.
• Supplemental survey will be collected to include 200-feet of 1401h Way SE at the SR169
intersection to reflect the 140`h Way SE improvements which were completed after the previous
design surveys were completed. A width of 150-feet will be surveyed with cross sections taken
at 50-foot stations.
• An additional profile will be taken at the proposed Cedar River Park/Stoneway intersection for a
distance of 300 feet to the south, and for a width of 200 feet. Cross sections will be taken at 50-
foot stations.
b. Data TransferBasemapping. Transfer field data to single AutoCad basemap, integrate with
previous mapping effort and prepare 1-inch = 20-foot base sheets.
c. Utility Locates. Contract with an independent utility locate service to horizontally locate existing
underground utilities along the corridor for use in preparing the project design. Vertical locations of
underground utilities at six locations of potential conflict are also included in this item.
3. PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING (30%) (SR 169/I-405)
The following tasks are being conducted in order to accommodate the additional 900 feet of roadway
along SR 169 and the new access street.
3.1 Prepare digital terrain model, cross -sections, and plan and profile drawings for the additional
roadway and park site work.
3.2 Include the additional roadway in the project's channelization plan for approval per WSDOT
Design Manual.
3.3 Include the additional roadway in the project's preliminary right of way analysis based on available
right-of-way mapping. The analysis will identify the location of existing public right-of-way, the
approximate location of parcel boundaries, and the approximate amount of take required to
construct the alternative.
3.4 Include the additional roadway in the project's traffic control strategy including construction
staging.
3.5 Modify transit signal priority as required by the new signal.
3.6 Prepare preliminary design of required retaining walls.
Supplemental Agreement No. 1 Maple Valley Highway (SR 169)
Prepared by Perteet Engineering, Inc.Page 4
3.7 Include the additional roadway drainage requirements into the project design memo.
3.8 Include the additional roadway and park site work in the project's preliminary opinion of cost,
including cost for right-of-way acquisition.
4. FINAL DESIGN (SR 169/I-405)
4.1 Prepare 60% contract plans and updated preliminary cost estimate for the additional roadway and
park site work. Include those plans in submittals to City staff for review and comment.
4.2 Prepare 90% plans, specifications, and cost estimates for the additional roadway and park site
work. Plans shall include complete details for the roadway widening, sidewalk, retaining walls,
storm drainage, signals, street lighting, channelization, signing, and landscaping details. Plans
shall show existing physical features; surface and subsurface utilities, as determined by field
survey or indicated on City or utility company records for the area included in the right-of-way.
Plans will be at a scale of 1"=20'. Submit the plans to the City for review and comment.
4.3 Submit final review plans, specifications, and cost estimates for the additional roadway and park
site work. Minor adjustments to the final plan set will be made if required prior to printing of the
PS&E package and advertisement for bids.
Plans anticipated to be prepared under this supplement include the following (some elements may be
combined):
• Roadway sections (1 additional sheet)
• Construction sequence plans (2 additional sheets)
• Plan and Profile sheets (2 additional sheets)
• Drainage plans (2 additional sheets)
• TESC plans (2 additional sheets)
• Channelization and signing plans (2 additional sheets)
• Utility plans (2 additional sheets)
• Traffic signal plans (1 additional plan sheet, 1 additional wiring diagram, 1 additional pole
schedule sheet)
• Transit signal priority plans (1 additional sheet)
• Parking lot and details (2 additional sheets)
• Illumination plans (1 additional sheet)
• Traffic control plans (2 additional sheets)
• Landscaping plans (2 additional sheets)
SR 169/140TH WAY SE
5. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS AND PERMITTING (SR 169/140TIl WAY SE)
Prepare a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit application for submittal to King County. This
task was not included in our original scope because it was assumed that the roadway construction
would stop short of the Cedar River's 200-foot shoreline zone 4. The traffic analysis showed the need
to construct a longer taper and holding lane to meet traffic demands, and the construction now
encroaches into the 200-foot zone. The following tasks will need to be undertaken:
• Preparation of materials and submittal King County for a preapplication meeting
Supplemental Agreement No. 1 Maple Valley Highway (SR 169)
Prepared by Perteet Engineering, lnc.Page 5
• Participation in the preapplication meeting
• Preparation of the permit application, including drawings, topographic information,
illustrations, and documentation
• Follow up coordination with King County
TIME FOR COMPLETION
The work under Phase 1 of this contract necessary to complete the plans and specifications shall be
completed by August 31, 2003. The City may authorize additional time for revisions to the construction
contract plans after that date as may be required by project funding and/or construction sequencing.

Subject: Re: Fireworks Issue
Dear Mr. Brott:
Thank you for your email to City Council supporting a ban on fireworks. Copy is being forwarded to each
Councilmember, Mayor Tanner and the Fire Chief for review and consideration.
This issue is currently before the City Council, and has been referred to the Public Safety Committee. The
Committee has met and plans to meet again on this subject, Committee meetings are working sessions,
however, they are open to the public. You will be notified of the date and time of the next committee
meeting on this subject. After the committee has completed its review, it will make a recommendation to
the full Council.
If I can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,

live at 2306 Vashon Court N.E. in the highlands. I just read an article in Renton news discussing the
issue of a fireworks ban.
I, for one, believe Renton should ban the use of any fireworks in the city. Further it should be done before
the next July 4th
holiday in 2004. 1 am tired of staying home on the 4th to try and make sure some of the other neighbors
and friends don't burn my house down. Annually there is a large BBQ gathering, which is great. However
at night the people, including some friends/relatives
from outside the area, take over the street and start firing everything from sparklers to rockets around &
over the houses.
Every year I find some remains in my yard front and back. One point in the article was that if there was a
ban people just flow to where there is no ban. Well some are flowing currently to Renton, and for this
purpose we don't need them.
Obviously some of my neighbors don't hold my opinion. However I think fireworks in any residential area is
just plain dangerous.
I will act on my opinion by not voting for any council member up for election who does not support any
immediate ban on fireworks.

Subject: Re: Fireworks Issue
Dear Mr. Brott,
Thank you for your correspondence. The Public Safety Committee is now looking into action to remedy
the unacceptable fireworks situation. Simply passing a law banning the fireworks that are now legal would
not have much effect. The devices causing over 85% of the complaints, i.e. bottle rockets, M-80's, etc.
are already illegal to possess or discharge under state law. Police and Fire have had all available officers
on duty this 4th of July,and have confiscated many illegal fireworks and will be issuing citations as well.
State law requires a one-year waiting period before any new law restricting the legal fireworks takes effect.
A city council cannot override state law. At this time Fire and Police are working to formulate a proposal to
the Public Safety Committee. If more funding is required to step up education and enforcement then it
must be included to the 2004 budget.
Sincerely,
Dan Clawson

In mid -March, as most of you know, Action Aviation began negotiations with the Airport
Manager and the City of Renton Administration to obtain a new airport -operating permit. This
necessitated a new sublease from our landlord, the Boeing Employees Flying Association, and a
property assignment from the City. The City Administration gave us their assurances that the
process would proceed in a routine manner. However, toward the end of March, to our total
surprise and dismay, the City Administration notified our landlord that they were in breach of.
their lease, and ordered us to cease all commercial activities on the airport —the sale of fuel in
particular. Although the City Administration's action was completely unnecessary,
unprecedented, and unjustified, they have been unwilling to reconsider their position.
Since being ordered to cease operations, we have worked tirelessly to resolve this situation;
however, all our efforts to do so have been unsuccessful. We have been unable to obtain an
acceptable or even reasonable sublease from our landlord, nor have we been able to convince the
City Administration to relax its position. Because a resolution has become impossible, the fate of
Action Aviation has been determined.
We have been forced to incur a significant financial burden during our closure, and, although we
have made every effort to endure this hardship, we can no longer continue to sustain such a
substantial burden. Therefore, effective immediately, Action Aviation is ultimately forced to
close its doors after 15 years of faithful service on the Renton Airport.
We are extremely disappointed at the way things have transpired, and we sincerely apologize for
the inconveniences this situation has and will continue to cause all of you. It is only through your
support that we have been able to enjoy the success we have experienced during our tenure here.
We are gratefully appreciative and wish to thamk you for your support. We have made so many
friends here over the years, and we will cherish each and every one —always! Please know that it
has been our pleasure and a privilege to have served you for all these years.
From Marilyn, Rich, myself, and all of us at Action Aviation, we wish you enjoyment and
success in all your flying endeavors —and hope you find tailwinds everywhere you soar.
Sincerely,
William O. Wiles
