OLD BUSINESS
Council President Keolker-Wheeler presented a Committee of the Whole report
Committee of the Whole
regarding the adoption of the 2004 City of Renton Budget, making amendments
Budget: 2004 Annual City of
as recommended by the Council, and recommending fee increases for various
Renton & Related Ordinances
parks and recreational programs. The Committee recommended adoption of the
ordinance approving the 2004 Budget in the amount of $146,500,500. This
recommendation decreases the Mayor's proposed budget by $2.2 million for the
appropriation of monies received from King County as mitigation for the
changes at the Wastewater Treatment Plant located in Renton. The Council
will discuss the use of these monies at their Council retreat in January, and the
final appropriation of these monies will be made in a future ordinance.
The 2004 Budget also appropriates a $1.5 million transfer from Fund 301,
Parking Garage Construction Fund, to Fund 317, Transportation Capital
Improvements Fund, for the purpose of paying for street and other
transportation planning efforts in Phase I of the Boeing redevelopment area.
The $1.5 million must then also be legally appropriated in Fund 317 to permit
actual expenditures.
December 8, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 454
The Committee also recommended that the $95,000 currently appropriated in
Fund 316 as Narco Park Planning now be appropriated and reserved as Parks
Contingency Reserve.
The Committee further recommended the 2004 Budget create a new fund
entitled "Insurance Healthcare Fund." This fund will account for all revenues,
paid premiums and expenditures the City has for health care costs.
The Committee also recommended adoption of the ordinance that increases the
2004 athletic field light fees between $2 and $3 per hour depending upon the
user.
The Committee concurred that the Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park picnic
shelter and boat launch fees also be increased as presented by the Community
Services Department.
The Committee also adopted the recommendation that damage and after hours
fees be increased at the Renton Community Center.
Finally, the Committee recommended adoption of the fees for the new Henry
Moses Aquatic Center as presented. These fees will have a price differential
for resident and non-resident users. Further, staff will explore admitting non -
swimming parents into the facility free of charge to supervise their children
during non -peak hours. MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED

agreement. MOVED BY CORMAN, SECONDED BY BRIERE, COUNCIL
CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED. (See page 456 for

Transportation (Aviation) Transportation (Aviation) Committee Chair Persson presented a report
Committee regarding temporary parking permits for extended services in the Central
Transportation: Temporary Business District. Available parking is limited in the City's downtown core.
Parking Permits for Extended Consequently, the City established time restrictions on parking in this area.
Services These parking restrictions range from one to two hours, with the majority of
parking being two hours. These time restrictions provide good turn around of
the limited parking spaces while allowing sufficient time for most customers to
conduct their business. The City recently constructed a parking garage in the
Central Business District to accommodate those that need additional time in the
core area for long-term parking.
Allowing selected businesses the privilege of three-hour parking would make it
difficult to deny requests from other businesses in the core area asking for the
same privilege. A proliferation of three-hour parking could have the potential
of harming many of the downtown businesses that depend on the parking
turnover to assure the vitality of their businesses. The Committee
recommended Council maintain the established parking restrictions in the

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Jason Jordan, Associate Planner, Development
Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The site is located at 3785 Lincoln
Avenue NE at the corner of Lincoln Place NE and Lincoln Avenue NE. The applicant, Cambridge Homes, is
proposing to subdivide a 1.43-acre site located within the Residential — 8 (R-8) dwelling units per acre zone.
The proposal would create six lots intended for future development of single-family homes. An existing home
is currently located on proposed lot 3 and would remain on proposed lot 3. The subject site is characterized by
having a gradual slope up to a natural occurring ravine. The ravine runs north south, has 50 percent plus slopes
and is mapped on the City's slope atlas as a protected slope. The ravine slopes to the west down towards May
Creek.
The proposed lots within the short plat would range from 6,034 square feet to 14,506 square feet. After the
deduction of the area to be dedicated for public right-of-way along Lincoln Avenue NE and the deduction of the
steep slope area west of the top of the slope line, the density at six lots comes to 5.88 dwelling units per acre
which is within the required density range of the zone.
Access to the proposed lots 1 through 5 would be provided from Lincoln Avenue NE. Access to proposed lot 6
would be provided from Lincoln Place NE.
The City's Environmental Review Committee (ERC) issued a Determination of Non -Significance - Mitigated
(DNS-M) including 11 mitigation measures. No appeals were filed. Of the 1 I conditions, one was related to the
geotechnical report, two through eight were related to storm water and erosion control and conditions nine
through 11 were impact fees.
The site is designated as Residential Single Family (RSF) on the City's Comprehensive Land Use Map. The
RSF designation is intended to promote and enhance single-family neighborhoods. Staff feels that this proposal
is consistent with this because it is keeping an existing home and creating lots for five additional single-family
homes. The net development density should fall within the range of five to eight dwelling units per acre. This
proposal would be 5.88 dwelling units per acre which is within the prescribed range.
The site is 1.43 acres in size and is located within the Residential — 8 (R-8) dwelling units per acre zoning
designation and falls within the required density range of that zone. After deductions the density arrives at 5.88
dwelling units per acre.
The minimum lot size in the R-8 zone is 4,500 square feet. The project meets all minimum lot size, width and
depth requirements. Proposed Lot 5 is considered a corner lot and does meet lot depth and width requirements.
The project also meets all setback requirements. On proposed lots 2, 3, and 6 per the ERC there is a 45-foot
setback from the top of the slope.
The existing single-family residence will be located entirely on proposed lot 3 of the plat. However, all other
outbuildings or structures not located on proposed lot 3 would need to be demolished or removed as part of the
development. In order to insure that this does in fact happen staff recommends that the applicant be required to
obtain and finalize all demolition permits as a condition of short plat approval for all structures not located on
proposed lot 3.
The R-8 zone permits one single-family residence per lot. Each of the lots would support the construction of
one detached single-family residence. Accessory structures are permitted at a maximum of two per lot at 720

square feet each or a maximum of one at 1,000 square feet. The building height in this zone is limited to two
stories and 30 feet in height for primary structures and 15 feet for detached accessory structures. The existing
single-family structure does meet this requirement. Maximum building coverage is limited to 35 percent of the
lot area or 2,500 square feet whichever is greater for lots over 5,000 square feet in size.
Each lot is required to provide two off-street parking places. It is difficult to determine until the actual building
plans are seen for the proposed lots 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 if those are provided. It does appear that there is sufficient
area to provide two parking stalls. On proposed lot 3 with the existing single-family home there is area for the
two parking stalls.
Access to proposed lot 3 is a 20-foot wide easement over proposed lots 1 and 4 that would provide access to
proposed lots 2 and 3. It is also recommended that proposed lots 1 and 4 be required to access off of the
easement. Staff is asking that this condition be noted on the face of the plat so that if it is sold to a homebuilder
they are aware of the condition right away.
The side lot lines of the proposed plat are at right angles to Lincoln Avenue NE and Lincoln Place NE. Each lot
would have access to a public road from Lincoln Avenue NE. Proposed lots 1, 4 and 5 would have direct
emergency vehicular access off of Lincoln Avenue NE. It is required that proposed lots 1 and 4 use the
vehicular easement for vehicular access. Proposed lot 6 will have direct access to Lincoln Place NE, which is
directly, south, and proposed lots 2 and 3 will be able to share the 20-foot access easement.
All lot corners at intersections of dedicated public right-of-way except alleys shall have a minimum radius of 15
feet. The proposed project meets this requirement. The applicant has requested a modification to installing full
frontage street improvements along Lincoln Place NE. The modification has been granted by the Development
Services Administrator to allow a 20-foot wide emergency and vehicular access along the property frontage of
Lincoln Place NE from the southeastern corner 160 feet back towards the west. It would be 20 foot paved,
emergency and vehicular access for proposed lot 6, which has been granted through a modification request. The
right-of-way for Lincoln Place is actually 60 feet.
Access to the six new lots is proposed via Lincoln Place NE and Lincoln Avenue NE. The applicant is required
to dedicate property along the eastern property boundary along Lincoln Avenue NE. They are also required to
install lighting, curb, gutter and sidewalks along that area. Proposed lot 1 will have direct emergency vehicular
access off of Lincoln Avenue. Proposed lot 4 will have the same as well as proposed lot 5. Proposed lot 5 will
be the only lot that has direct vehicular access onto Lincoln Avenue NE. Staff has not imposed a condition to
restrict access off of Lincoln Place NE because they were under the impression that access would come off of
Lincoln Avenue NE. They are aware that proposed lot 6 will have direct access onto Lincoln Place NE. Staff
does not recommend a condition eliminating access from proposed lot 5 to Lincoln Place NE.
Proposed lots 2 and 4 will have vehicular and emergency access over the 20-foot easement. Proposed lot 6 has
access off of Lincoln Avenue. Proposed lots 1 and 4 will have emergency access off of Lincoln Avenue;
however, vehicular access will have to be oriented to the 20-foot easement. In order to insure that efficient
emergency access to the development is not obstructed staff is recommending that the applicant be required to
place no parking signage along the 20 foot easement between proposed lots 1 and 4. This would insure that
emergency vehicles are able to access proposed lots 2 and 3. Again, staff recommends that a condition be
placed on the project requiring proposed lots 1 and 4 to use this as vehicular access.
The proposed subdivision is expected to generate additional traffic on the city street system. To mitigate the
impacts to the local street system the Environmental Review Committee did issue a traffic mitigation fee
condition requiring the applicant to pay the required fee. The fee is to be paid prior to plat approval.

The topography of the site is gently sloping east and west at about 11 percent grade. At the top of the slope it
slopes much more drastically at a 50 percent plus rate. Because there is this type of slope on the property the
applicant was required to submit a geotechnical report. As proposed, existing vegetation where drives and
building footprints are planned would be removed as part of the development. The geotechnical report
recommends that the applicant maintain a structure setback of 45 feet. This was made a condition by the ERC.
There is a structure setback of 45 feet and the geotech recommended a 10-foot no disturbance setback, which
means no grading, clearing or tree removal. Staff would expect that the 45-foot setback be shown on the final
plat drawing.
Temporary erosion and sedimentation control plans and the use of Best Management Practices as well as other
required mitigation measures imposed by the ERC serve to mitigate potential erosion and off -site sedimentation
impacts. The project application includes a construction mitigation plan, which is subject to final approval prior
to construction permit issuance.
With respect to relationship to existing uses, the subject site is currently developed with a single-family
residence, which is proposed to remain. The surrounding area includes other single-family residences developed
under the similar R-8 development standards or similar King County Residential Single Family standards. The
proposed lots, in staff s opinion, are compatible with other existing and newly created lots in the area. In staff s
opinion, the proposal is consistent with both the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Code. It would not be out
of character or context with recent development in the area.
In regard to availability and impact to public services, police and fire have indicated that there are sufficient
resources to provide emergency services provided the applicant pay the required fire impact fee which was
required as part of the ERC's recommendation.
The proposal does not provide any on -site recreation; therefore, the ERC required a park impact fee to be paid as
part of the short plat approval.
The Renton School District has indicated that Hazelwood Elementary, McKnight Middle School and Hazen
High School could accommodate the expected new students generated from this proposal.
In regard to storm water, the applicant would be required to submit a drainage report per the 1998 King County
Storm Water Manual, which was a condition of the ERC. A Surface Water System Development Charge would
be required to be paid prior to the issuance of construction permits for the short plat. The applicant will also be
required to pay the appropriate Sewer System Development fee and a Water System Development fee. Both
utilities are provided by the City of Renton.
In conclusion, staff recommends approval of the Elsa Ridge Short Plat subject to conditions. The applicant shall
be required to obtain demolition permits and complete all necessary inspections and approvals for all existing
structures not located on what will become new lot 3. The applicant shall place "no parking" signage near the
20-foot wide private drive serving the development. No direct vehicular access shall be allowed onto Lincoln
Avenue NE from proposed lots 1 and 4. The condition shall be placed on the face of the final short plat prior to
recording.
Jennifer Steig, Peterson Consulting Engineers, 4030 Lake Washington Blvd. NE, Suite 200, Kirkland, WA
98033, stated that she is representing the applicant, Cambridge Homes. They have reviewed staffs report; the
ERC's conditions and the conditions for the short plat and have no issues. They anticipate providing access to
proposed lot 5 from Lincoln Avenue. In regard to the 10 foot no disturb it should be shown on the final plat.

Bruce Nielsen, 3825 Lincoln Avenue NE, Renton, WA 98056 stated that he does have some concerns primarily
with Lincoln Avenue NE. His lot is located immediately north of the subject site. On the displayed map he
pointed out the areas that have been developed and sidewalks put in. Lincoln Avenue is not straight as it
appears on the map. Lincoln Avenue narrows in front of his property and consequently his front lot is driven
over constantly. They have no sidewalks and there is no intent to put sidewalks on his side of his street, which
will put pedestrians in harms way. He is also concerned with the side of the street opposite his property; they do
not have culverts they have ditches and virtually every fall or winter his mailbox floods out. With the new
construction there will be additional runoff coming down Lincoln Avenue NE. The runoff has no where to go in
front of his house so it goes across the road and down into the culvert. He would like to see this issue addressed
with the new home construction.
Ms. Steig stated that in regard to storm drainage the plan for the homes is to infiltrate the houses. Based on the
geotech report the underlying soils are highly infiltrative. They will be picking up the street frontage in a
conveyance system and putting it into the existing conveyance system located in Lincoln Avenue.
Kayren Kittrick, Development Services Division, 1055 S. Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055 stated that when the
LaCrosse development went in the requirement was that they install storm all the way down Lincoln Avenue.
They had to improve it so that they could use it at least partially outside of their vault. It is very new (within six
years). The catch basin at the north end of this particular short plat is designed to catch all the drainage from the
roadway and direct it into the system, which should route it around the northern property. Mr. Nielsen may still
have some flooding off of the roadway, as it exists now. It is unclear where all that water is coming from at this
point. She added that the City of Renton does have a missing link sidewalk program, which Mr. Nielsen could
put a request in for. The City has dedicated monies annually specifically for this. It is on a rating system which
means if there are kids walking to school it gets a higher priority then a missing link in a rural area.
Lincoln Place is a 50-foot right-of-way and is very steep. Staff has asked the Fire Department if they can vacate
it; however, the Fire Department is uncomfortable with the thought because it is their only link from Jones Road
below up to Lincoln Avenue. Even though they would never take a large truck up there they are sure that
Paramedics would use the route. It is a very narrow, steep road and is not maintained. The modification was
issued partly with the thought that the 20 feet is necessary for emergency access and it has to match the
driveways to the south and the existing home, which limited the design to a certain degree. Widening the
pavement to 20 feet to meet the Fire Department needs as well as have a turnaround but they did not want it
developed any further then absolutely necessary so as not to encourage people to use the road.
Ms. Steig in regard to the access question on proposed lot 5, the applicant would obviously prefer to have the
option of going from Lincoln Avenue however, if that were an imposed condition they could work with it. It is
more marketable from Lincoln Avenue for the applicant.
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 9:54 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Rick Finkbeiner, fled a request for approval of a short plat.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation and
Elsa Ridge Short Plat
File No.: LUA-02-086,SHPL-H,ECF
November 12, 2!002
Page 6
other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official, issued a Determination 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 at 3785 Lincoln Avenue NE. The subject site is located on the northwest corner
of Lincoln Avenue NE and Lincoln Place NE.
6. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 4275 enacted in June 1990.
7. The subject site is zoned R-8 (Single Family; Lot size - 4,500 sq ft).
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 uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
9. An existing single family home will be retained on the site. Other outbuildings will be removed.
10. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into six (6) lots. The division will permit the development
of five new homes with the existing home proposed for new Lot 3.
11. The subject site is approximately 296 feet deep (east to west) by approximately 210 feet wide (the Lincoln
Avenue frontage).
12. The subject site is located east of May Creek. The site slopes very steeply downward beginning
approximately 60 feet from its western property line. The ravine that defines the western quarter or so of
the site has slopes in excess of 50 percent. The remainder of the property has varied topography with
approximately 11 percent slopes.
13. The site has a variety of vegetation including trees, grasses, shrubs and lawn. The ravine is comprised of
native vegetations.
14. The applicant proposes two tiers of lots. Proposed Lots 1, 4 and 5 (north to south) would be the east tier of
lots and would be located along the Lincoln Avenue frontage. Proposed Lots 2, 3 and 6 (again, north to
south) would be in the rear.
15. Each of the lots would have dimensions shown by the table below:

16. The geotechnical report prepared for the project recommended that the steeper slopes be maintained in

Page 7
their natural state and that two setbacks be created. There would be a 45 foot setback in which no
structures or foundation would be permitted. In addition, there would be a 10-foot buffer, which would not
be disturbed in any fashion including no clearing, grading or vegetation removal. The ERC included this
as a specific condition.
17. Both streets, Lincoln Avenue and Lincoln Place, are not developed full width rights -of -way. They are
constrained by topography. Lincoln Avenue has a grade near the subject site and sight distance is limited.
Lincoln Place along the south boundary of the subject site is a very steep curving roadway. The City
decided to provide a modification to not improve sections of Lincoln Place since the City prefers it not be a
heavily used roadway.
18. The applicant proposes that Lots 2 and 3 be accessed by an easement roadway. The City recommended
that the two lots in front of Lots 2 and 3, Lots 1 and 4 also use the easement roadway for access to limit the
number of curb cuts on Lincoln Avenue.
19. Proposed Lot 6, also a rear lot, was proposed to have access via Lincoln Place, the side street. At the
hearing it was suggested that Proposed Lot 5 share an access with Proposed Lot 6 to further limit the
number of curb cuts along Lincoln Avenue.
20. Neighbors were concerned about traffic, discontinuous sidewalks due to varying roadway width and storm
water issues.
21. Storm water will be handled under the 1998 King County Manual. The applicant proposes infiltration as
well as conveying water to catch basins and a system on the east side of Lincoln Avenue.
22. The applicant will be dedicating property along Lincoln Avenue, its eastern boundary to accommod to its ��—
idepInity
. e d dicati n will have to be presented to the City Council. �Qdrv�e�, �,
Zed � (5,�, .Am.
23. The deof the proposal was calculated after reductions for roadways and steep slope areas. The six
lots would have a net density of 5.88 dwelling units per acre.
Conclusions:
The proposed short plat appears to serve the public use and interest as conditioned by the ERC and herein.
The plat will provide additional housing opportunities in a growing urban area. The development of the
subject site with five additional homes will also increase the tax base of the City somewhat offsetting the
impact of the new development.
2. While the road situation in the immediate area is not perfect, staff believes that the additional homes can be
served without creating safety problems. In order to minimize safety and sight distance issues, access to
both Lincoln Avenue east of the plat and Lincoln Place south of the plat should be restricted. Fewer
driveways on either of those streets will reduce the potential for turning conflicts. Therefore, proposed lots
1 to 4 shall be limited to sharing an access easement roadway that runs east to west and intersects with
Lincoln Avenue NE between proposed lots 1 and 4. Similarly, proposed lots 5 and 6 shall share a
driveway although in this case, the applicant can decide on an easement in common or some other form of
shared driveway. This means that there shall be no other access to the public streets other than that
provided by the respective shared access and this restriction shall be shown on the face of the plat.
3. The site's steep topography dictate that a buffer be protected at the top of the slope. In addition, the site's
storm water will be subjected to the stricter standards of the 1998 Storm Water Manual. In addition, the
Elsa Ridge Short Plat
File No.: LUA-02-086,SHPL-H,ECF
November 12, 2002
Page 8
topography dictated a reduction in density due to the formulas that require steep slopes to be removed from
acreage. The density of 5.88 proposed is appropriate for the Zoning.
4. Staff has suggested that it might be possible to create a sidewalk extension north of the subject site using a
City "Missing Link" program. Neighbors are encouraged to pursue that possibility. Under the
circumstances in this case, it would not be appropriate to require extensions beyond the frontage of this
site.
5. In conclusion, the proposed plat will provide additional single-family housing choices without unduly
burdening the neighborhood or overall community.
Decision:
The applicant shall comply with the conditions imposed by the ERC.
2. The applicant shall obtain demolition permits and complete all necessary inspections and approvals for all
existing structures not located on what would become new lot 3. The satisfaction of this requirement shall
be subject to the review and approval of the Development Services Division prior to the recording of the
short plat.
3. The applicant shall place "No Parking" signage near the 20-foot wide private drive serving the
development. The satisfaction of this requirement shall be subject to the Development Services Division
prior to recording of the short plat.
4. Proposed lots 1 to 4 shall be limited to sharing an access easement roadway that runs east to west and
intersects with Lincoln Avenue NE between proposed lots 1 and 4.
Proposed lots 5 and 6 shall share a driveway that provides access to Lincoln Place NE.
6. There shall be no other access to the public streets other than that provided by the respective shared access
methods outlined above.
7. All access limitations and restrictions shall be shown on the face of the plat.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
In March 2002, the legislature passed Substitute House Bill 2060 to authorize a surcharge on
document recording as a means of funding affordable housing. The revenue generated is split
between the state and local governments with 60% of the revenue retained by the county in a special
fund to be used by the county and its cities to support very low-income housing. These funds must be
allocated among the jurisdictions by an inter -local agreement between the county and cities that is
consistent with regional housing policies and objectives.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Interlocal Agreement for
the Regional Affordable Housing Program.

FROM: Alex Pietsch, Administrator

STAFF CONTACT: Rebecca Lind (6588)
SUBJECT: Regional Affordable Housing Program
ISSUE:
Whether the City of Renton agrees to participate in an inter -local agreement with King
County pertaining to distribution of funds established by Substitute House Bill 2060.
RECOMMENDATION:
• Authorize the Mayor to execute the proposed inter -local agreement for administration of
the Local Low -Income Housing Funds in King County.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
In March 2002, the legislature passed Substitute House Bill 2060 to authorize a surcharge on
document recording as a means of funding affordable housing. An estimated 2.3 million
dollars will be available for annual distribution. The revenue generated is split between the
state and local governments, with 60 % of the revenue retained by the county in a special fund
to be used by the county and its cities to support very low-income housing. These funds must
be allocated by among the jurisdictions by an inter -local agreement between the county and
cities that is consistent with regional housing policies and objectives.
In King County a working group of county, city and housing organization staff met during
2002 to establish a set of guidelines for administration of this program, "Guidelines for the
Administration and Allocation of SHB2060 Local Low -Income Housing Funds in King
December 3, 2003
Page 2
County" (Guidelines). EDNSP staff participated in the initial meetings and subsequently
monitored the process. These Guidelines will take affect after adoption by the King County
Council and remain in effect through December 2006. The City is already participating in a
regional forum reviewing distribution of federal block grant dollars through the Home
Investment Partnership Program (HOME). Through the King County Consortium, authorized
by existing inter -local agreements between the suburban cities and King County, a Joint
Recommendations Committee (JRC) allocates HOME funding. The existing HOME working
group will also be expanded administer the new Regional Affordable Housing Program
funding(RAHP). The RAHP/HOME will make project recommendations to the JRC as with
the current the procedure for HOME funding. Renton is currently represented at the HOME
working group by the Human Services Division of the Community Services Department.
RAHP funding will be dispersed within three Sub -regions: 1) Seattle, 2) North/East urban
and rural areas, and 3) south urban and rural areas. Half of RAHP funds will be allocated
based on the sub-region's relative share of existing need for affordable housing. Existing
need is determined by the percentage of low-income households paying more than 30 % of
income for housing according to the 2000 Census. The remaining half of RAHP funds will be
allocated based on the sub-region's growth targets and future need as established by the
Growth Management Planning Council. Future need is derived from a formula established in
the Countywide Planning Policies.
The following priorities are established for RAHP funding:
1) Capital funds for acquisition, rehabilitation and or new construction of low-income
housing.
2) Building operations and maintenance funds for transitional housing.
3) Operating funds for emergency and youth shelters.
4) Rental assistance voucher administered by a local housing authority.
All projects or units funded must serve households at or below 50% of area median income.
Populations served include families, homeless families and individuals, including youth,
special needs populations, including seniors and disabled households.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, housing authorities and local
governments.
RAHP administration will be handled through existing staffing provided by the King County
Housing and Community Development (HCD) Program at no cost. Capital funds will be
administered by the King County HCD's Housing Finance Program.
CONCLUSION:
December 3, 2003
Page 3
The guidelines developed for this program provide for equitable allocation of dollars based on
existing housing and growth policies, and further a cooperative relationship among
jurisdictions. Participation in this program through the inter -local agreement provides an
opportunity to expand support for affordable housing in the region without creating any
additional staffing or fiscal responsibility for Renton.

September 12, 2003
Dear Mayors, City Managers, CDBG and HOME Consortium Coordinators:
I am very pleased to present for your city's review and approval the Interlocal Cooperation
Agreement for the new Regional Affordable Housing Program ("RAHP'), and the RAHP
Guidelines, attached thereto as Exhibit 1. This regional partnership will benefit our communities
through the provision of new affordable housing for many years to come.
The planning process to formulate this new program was a very exciting regional process and I am
grateful to all the participants from local jurisdictions and from the housing community.
Following upon the work of the planning group, I recommended for King County Council approval
an ordinance establishing RAHP Guidelines and an ordinance authorizing RAHP Interlocal
Agreements. The ordinances were passed on July 21, 2003, and signed into law on July 30, 2003.
The RAHP will allocate revenues collected by King County pursuant to Substitute House Bill 2060,
passed by the state legislature last year. The RAHP guidelines are flexible, allowing for the funding
of many different types of housing projects, including ownership housing, permanent rental
housing, transitional housing and shelters for very low-income households.
Funds generated by SHB 2060 can be used for new construction, acquisition of property and
rehabilitation. The program also provides a limited amount of operation and maintenance funds for
existing transitional housing projects and shelters serving very low-income households. Eligible
applicants for the RAHP can be non -profits, for -profits, housing authorities and local governments.
I encourage all cities in King County to sign the RAHP Agreement, in order to adhere to the
language of the SHB 2060 legislation, which states that the funds are to be administered
"...according to an interlocal agreement between the county and the cities within the county...".
Appropriate action by ordinance or resolution of a jurisdiction's council is required for the
agreement to be effective. Council action should be taken by the end of November 2003, in time
for allocation decisions for the RAHP in December.
The RAHP guidelines allow a city to participate as much or as little as desired in the program.
• Staff Level: All cities are invited to appoint a staff person, including A Regional Coalition
for Housing (ARCH) staff representing particular cities, to participate in the RAHP/HOME
Working Group. On the working group, staff will review projects from their jurisdictions
and work with the King County Housing and Community Development staff to make

funding recommendations to the inter jurisdictional Joint Recommendations Committee,
currently chaired by Mayor Ava Frisinger of the City of Issaquah. A city that participates in
ARCH may elect to defer participation of their staff and allow ARCH staff to represent them,
if desired. It would still be beneficial for a city to sign the RAHP Interlocal Agreement even
if that city does not elect to participate in the staff work group so that the structure of the
program in King County will adhere as closely as possible to the language of SHB 2060.
• If staff from your city have not participated in the HOME Working Group but would like to
participate in the RAHP, please contact A] D'Alessandro in the King County Housing and
Community Development Program, at 206-205-6562.
• Elected Official/Department Director Level: Your city may also have the opportunity to
have a representative on the Joint Recommendations Committee (JRC). If you would like
more information on the JRC and how cities' representatives are appointed, please contact
Mayor Frisinger, at 425-837-3021, or Jackie MacLean, Director of King County's
Department of Community and Human Services, at 206-296-7689.
Please be aware that RAHP Guidelines include allocation targets for projects to be located
throughout the region based on three large sub -regional areas: Seattle, East/North County, and
South County. Project location is not necessarily tied to whether a particular jurisdiction has
signed the Interlocal Agreement.
If your city decides not to sign the Agreement, please use the enclosed form to state in writing
that your jurisdiction declines to participate in the RAHP. If you have any questions regarding
the RAMP Guidelines, the Interlocal Agreement, or the enclosed form, please contact Cheryl
Markham, RASP Planner, in the Housing and Community Development Program, at 206-205-
1417, or by e-mail, at cheryl.markham@metrokc.gov. Please return your signed Agreement or
form to the King County Housing and Community Development Program, 821 Second Avenue,
Suite 500, Seattle, WA 98104, Attention: Cheryl Markham.
Thank you for your assistance in making this regional program a success.
Sincerely,

interest on the RAHP funds, allocated to projects within the subregion over the 4-year
period of the RAHP Guidelines and the RAHP Agreement. Each subregion will
receive allocations to projects within the subregion that are equal to or greater than
95%, of the subregions' allocation target by December 31, 2006.
The formula for allocating RAHP funds to the subregions is as follows:
• One half of the RAHP funds shall be targeted for allocation amongst the three
subregions based on each subregion's relative share of total existing need for
affordable housing. Existing need shall be determined by the percentage of low-
income households paying more than 30% of their income for housing in the
subregion, according to the 2000 U.S. Census data3.
• One half of the RAHP funds shall be targeted for allocation amongst the three
subregions based on the subregions' growth targets for future need, as established
through the Growth Management Planning Council. Future need shall be
RAHP Guidelines/ Page 5
If any subregions have received allocations under 95% of their target allocation after
the first two funding cycles, the working group will adjust the allocation targets of
such subregion(s) in the third and/or fourth funding cycles, as needed. In addition, the
Working Group will propose strategies and actions, for review by the JRC, that are
designed to increase the percentage of RAHP funds spent in those subregion(s). Staff
of the jurisdictions that are parties to the RAHP Agreement will work to implement
actions that will aid in achieving geographic equity in RAH? allocations by December
31, 2006.
D. Use of the RAHP Funds
1. RAHP Priorities
Top Priority: Capital funds for the acquisition, rehabilitation and/or new
construction of eligible housing projects or units within housing projects. New
construction is not eligible if the low-income housing vacancy rate for all of King
County exceeds 10%5
Second Priority: Building operations and maintenance funds for transitional housing
projects or transitional units within housing projects that were built with Housing
affordable housing target for low-income households of all King County jurisdictions, including unincorporated King
County.
5 The low-income housing vacancy rate for each county will be established by the State, pursuant to the SHB 2060
legislation.
RAHP Guidelines/ Page 7
Homeless families and individuals, including youth
• Special needs populations, including seniors
• Disabled households or households with a disabled member
Eligible Applicants
• Nonprofit organizations
• Housing Authorities
• Local governments
• For -profit entities are only eligible for capital funds in the top priority. This is due to
the language of the SHB 2060 legislation, which restricts operations and maintenance
funds to projects "built with Housing Trust Funds". For -profit entities are not eligible for
WA State Housing Trust Funds.
Eligible use of RAHP Funds - eligible uses of funds are subject to the RAHP priorities
listed above.
Capital funds:
• Acquisition of land for a housing project or units in a project that will serve eligible
population(s).
• New construction of a housing project or units in a project that will serve eligible
population(s).
• Acquisition of a housing project or units in a project that will serve eligible
population(s).
RAHP Guidelines/ Page 9
1. RAHP Capital Funds
RAHP capital funds will be administered by the King County HCD's Housing Finance
Program (HFP), in conjunction with other fund sources administered by HFP.
The HFP will staff the RAHP/HOME Working Group and work with staff of the
participating cities in King County to develop RAHP funding allocation
recommendations and related policy recommendations for JRC review and adoption.
The HFP will distribute RAHP funds through contracts pursuant to the allocations
adopted by the JRC, and will generate an annual RAHP report that provides information
about the projects that received funding in the current year, as well as the status of
projects awarded RAHP funds in prior year(s).
By request of the 2060 Planning Group, the HFP staff will apply the terms of the King
County Housing Opportunity Fund ("HOF") to RAHP contracts, with the exception of the
following:
0 to the extent that there are differences between the HOF guidelines and RAHP
guidelines, the RAHP guidelines will apply;
• a financial match by the local government where a housing project is to be located is
not required, but is encouraged.
RAHP Guidelines/ Page 11
projects that are simultaneously applying for WA State Housing Trust Fund capital funds
and shelters receiving Emergency Shelter Assistance Program ("ESAP") funds.
Therefore, the local RAHP O&M fund will prioritize existing transitional housing
projects and shelters that do not receive ESAP funds.
Following the adoption of the RAHP Guidelines and the RAHP Agreement by the
jurisdictions in King County that elect to participate in the RAHP, the HHP will convene
a focus group of city staff and stakeholders to further develop the parameters of the
RAHP O&M fund and the RAHP O&M Request for Proposals. The RAHP O&M funds
will be awarded in multi -year commitments and will have minimum and maximum grant
amounts, however, the minimum and maximum amounts and other O&M fund details
will be determined by the O&M focus group and will be reviewed by the JRC.
The HHP will invite city staff and other stakeholders to participate on the panel to review
applications for the RAHP O&M funds. The review panel will recommend O&M fund
awards to the JRC for final adoption.

SUBJECT: Proposed Maplewood Highlands Annexation 10% Notice of Intent
Petition
ISSUE:
The City is in receipt of a Notice of Intent to annex approximately 10.88-acres to the City of
Renton by direct petition (Figure 1, Vicinity Map). State law requires that the Council hold a
Public Meeting with the 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
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 expanded
annexation;
• Require that property owners within the proposed annexation area assume a proportional
share of the City's outstanding indebtedness.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The applicants are proposing to annex a portion of what was previously the proposed Wooford
Annexation. That annexation was one of those adversely affected by the state Supreme Court's
March 2002 decision invalidating the direction petition method based upon assessed value. The
current proposal only includes the area north of Maplewood Heights Elementary School to the City
boundary to the north and east. Maplewood Heights Elementary School is expected to be annexed
independently. If this annexation is approved by Council and its residents, R-5 zoning would
presumably be applied at the time it came into the City.
Maplewood Highlands Annexation 10% Notice of Intent Petition 2
12/01/03
1. Location: The proposed 10.88 acre square shaped Maplewood Highlands annexation area
is located immediately north of the Maplewood Heights Elementary School. It is bounded
by 140 Avenue SE on the west, NE 2nd Street on the north, and, Lyons Avenue NE, on the
east.
2. Assessed Value: The assessed valuation with current development is $2,558,100.
3. Natural Features: The site is generally flat sloping slightly to the southeast. There are no
known environmental sensitive areas associated with the site
4. Existing Land Uses: The majority of the site is currently developed but at only a density of
about 1.5 units per net acre. Existing development includes fifteen single-family detached
dwellings with one dwelling on each of the fifteen parcels that make up the annexation site.
5. Existing Zoning: The site is currently zoned R-4, 4 units per gross acre, in King County.
6. Comprehensive Plan: The subject annexation site is designated Urban Residential 4-12
units per acre in King County. Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject
annexation site Residential Low Density (RLD). This designation allows three zones in
this area: RC (Resource Conservation) at 1 du/10 acres; R-l; and R-5 zoning.
7. Public Services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the proposed
annexation appears to represent a logical extension of their respective services and
systems.
• Water Utility: The proposed annexation area is located in King County Water District
No. 90's water service area. No additional staff are anticipated as a consequence.
Surface Water: The proposed annexation is part of the May Creek sub -basin. Because
the site is partially developed this division believes there is a higher than normal
likelihood that it could develop with future short plats which would be exempt from
storm water detention requirements. Because this could have a negative impact on
downstream erosion and flooding staff are recommending that all new development be
required to provide Level 2 flow control and basic water quality per the 1998 King
County Surface Water Design Manual. Staff also notes a small intermittent stream that
crosses 144"' Avenue SE and believe there may be wetlands associated with it. Costs
for maintaining existing and future public storm water system infrastructure are
negligible and no increasing in staffing levels is projected.
• Wastewater: The City is the designated sewer service provider for the East Renton
Plateau PAA which includes this area. Staff recommended adding Maplewood
Heights Elementary School and adjacent road right-of-ways. (Staff note that the
school is being processed as a separate annexation and the 1440' Avenue SE right-of-
way is now included.)
Parks: Staff notes that there currently is a shortfall of parks and recreation facilities in
the area. However, they note that with the transfer of King County's Maplewood Park
the need for a community park would be met. Estimated costs of improving this 40-
acre park are $5,400,000. Staff have calculated an estimated one time cost of $23,429
as the fair share cost that could be attributed to this annexation, above and beyond
revenues that might accrue to the City from mitigation fees.
Fire: The City currently serves the annexation area under contract with Fire District
No. 25. Upon annexation the City will serve the whole area.
• Police: The Police Department supports the proposed boundaries of this annexation
but note that this, like all annexations, will likely increase the number of calls for

• Fire: The City currently serves the annexation area under contract with Fire District
No. 25. Upon annexation the City will serve the whole area.
• Police: The Police Department supports the proposed boundaries of this annexation
but note that this, like all annexations, will likely increase the number of calls for
service. They state that the accumulative impact of these annexations could
eventually require additional staff.
• Public Works Maintenance: The annual estimated cost of maintaining new streets
within the proposed annexation area is $1,854. This assumes approximately 1,484
linear feet of new roads to serve an estimated 34 homes in the are at full
development.
• Transportation: The Transportation Systems Division reported that the proposed
annexation raised no concerns for them. This because the costs of upgrading existing
access streets serving the proposed annexation and those within it would be borne by
those developing properties here, rather than the City. The only expenses the City
would incur from a transportation standpoint would be those associated with new
signage and pavement markings, street lighting and maintenance costs.
ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION:
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:
The annexation policies generally support this 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. Renton is the
logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area (Policy LU-385) with the
exception of water which will be provided by Water District No. 90. Policy LU-388
states that, in general, the greater the contiguity with the city limits, the more favorable
the annexation. The proposed area for annexation abuts the city boundary on 50 % of its
perimeter.
2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives:
a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities;
The proposed annexation does not split or change existing neighborhoods. The
whole half block north of the elementary school is being proposed for annexation.
b. Use of Physical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies of water, highways,
and land contours;
The proposed annexation abuts the City of Renton along its northern and eastern
boundaries. In addition, it is bounded by streets to the west, north and east.
c. Creation and preservation of logical service areas;
The proposed annexation area is not split in terms of its service areas. As a result its
boundaries are considered reasonable by all reviewing departments. It is in Renton's
Wastewater Utility service area, King County Water District No. 90's water service
area, and the Renton School District #403.
d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries;
H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Maplewood Highlands\10% Issue Papendoc\d
Maplewood Highlands Annexation 10% Notice of Intent Petition 4
11/26/03
Not applicable. The annexation site has regular boundaries and abuts the City on two
sides.
e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of
incorporations of cities in excess of ten thousand population in heavily populated
urban areas;
Not applicable.
f. Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts;
There are no known inactive special purpose districts in this area.
g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries;
This annexation is not being proposed to adjust what are considered to be impractical
boundaries.
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 because of its location
within the Urban Growth Area boundary. The county has also indicated that it wants
to divest itself from providing urban services to these unincorporated urban areas.
i. 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 this proposed annexation are designated for long
term productive agricultural use in either the King County or Renton Comprehensive
Plans.
CONCLUSION:
The proposal is essentially consistent with City policies related to annexation as well as Boundary
Review board objectives and criteria for annexations. No impediments to the provision of City
services to the area have been identified. The City already provides fire services to Fire District
No. 25, under contract, for example, so there should be no change in service for the fifteen
parcels currently served by this district. Water service will be provided by King County Water
District No. 90 and the school district boundaries will not change as a result of this proposed
annexation.
An initial fiscal analysis was conducted by staff for this proposed annexation. Assuming an
assessed value of $400,000 per new home and 24 new homes, it indicated an annual cost of
$1,049 to the City under current projected revenues and costs, and a one time estimated cost of
$23,429 for parks acquisition and/or improvements. A more detailed analysis may be conducted
following receipt of the County's certification of the 50% Petition to annex, if Council authorizes
its circulation.

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 20.59-acres located to the northwest of the Stonegate
Subdivision. It is bounded by Lyons Avenue NE on the east, SE 100' Street, if extended, on
the south, and approximately 142" Avenue SE, if extended, on the west.
State law requires that the Council hold a public meeting within 60 days of the filing of the
10 % Notice of Intent to Commence Annexation petition to consider the proposed annexation
and decide whether it will accept, modify, or reject it. If Council accepts the annexation, it
shall authorize the circulation of the new 50 % direct petition to annex.
Because the site was prezoned to R-1, one unit per net acre, in 1997, the Council is not
required to consider future zoning for this annexation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Council set a Public Meeting date for December 22, 2003 to consider this annexation.

SUBJECT: Proposed Merritt II Annexation 10% Notice of Intent Petition
ISSUE:
The City is in receipt of a Notice of Intent to annex approximately 20.59-acres to the City of
Renton by direct petition (Figure 1, Vicinity Map). State law requires that the Council hold a
Public Meeting with the 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
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 expanded
annexation;
• Require that property owners within the proposed annexation area assume a proportional
share of the City's outstanding indebtedness.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The applicants originally proposed a much smaller annexation, now referred to as Merritt I so as
not confuse it with the current proposal. This annexation request was for 4.89 acres and only
included the easternmost parcel of the five parcels now under consideration. The applicant for
the former annexation has requested that it be withdrawn concurrently with the authorization to
circulate the 50% petition for the Merritt II annexation. Because the annexation site was
prezoned R-1 in 1997, there is no need to address future zoning at this time. Upon annexation, R-
1 zoning would automatically be applied.
Merritt II Annexation 10% Notice of Intent
12/01/03
2
Location: The proposed 20.59 acre irregularly shaped Merritt II is located northwest of
the Stonegate Subdivision. It is bounded by Lyons Avenue NE on the east, SE 100"'
Street, if extended, on the south, and approximately 142nd Avenue SE, if extended, on the
west.
2. Assessed Value: The assessed valuation with current development is $1,953,300.
Natural Features: The site generally slopes from a high point in the southwest corner of
127.87 meters to a low point of 93.78 meters near SE May Valley Road. A ridge runs
diagonally through the middle of the site with plateaus in the southwest, north and eastern
portions. The area is considered to be within a high erosion hazard area. May Creek
intersects the northern tip of the 20.59 acre site.
4. Existing Land Uses: Existing development includes five single-family detached
dwellings with one dwelling on each of the five parcels that make up the annexation site.
5. Existin Zoning: As noted above the proposed annexation was included in an earlier
(1997) prezoning of this area to the R-1 zone (1 du/net acre), pursuant to RCW
35.A.14.330 and RCW 35.A.14.340.
6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject annexation
area Residential Low Density (RLD) (formerly Residential Rural). This designation is
consistent with the existing R-1 prezoning since it allows three zones in this area: RC
(Resource Conservation) at 1 du/10 acres; R-1; and R-5 zoning.
7. Public Services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the proposed
annexation appears to represent a logical extension of their respective services and
systems.
Water Utility: The two largest of the four western parcels of this proposed
annexation are in Renton's Water Utility service area. The eastern (Merritt) parcel is
in Water District No. 90's service area and northern two smaller parcels are in the
Coal Creek Utility District water service boundary. No additional staff is anticipated
as a result of this annexation.
Surface Water: The proposed annexation is located in the Green Creek sub -basin of
the May Creek Basin. The site drains to the May Valley portion of May Creek,
where staff not there are existing flooding, water quality and fish habitat problems.
May Creek flows across the northern tip of the proposed annexation. Because the
City adopted the May Creek Basin Plan which requires full mitigation for future
increases in surface water runoff from new development draining into May Valley,
future development may have to comply with the 1998 King County Surface Water
Design Manual flow control standards. No additional staff is anticipated as a result
of this annexation.
Wastewater: The City is the designated sewer service provider for the East Renton
Plateau PAA.
• Parks: Staff notes that there currently is a shortfall of parks, trails and recreation
facilities in the area. They believe that there is a need for both a community and
neighborhood park in the area. Staff have calculated an estimated one time cost of
$15 as the fair share cost that could be attributed to this annexation, above and
beyond revenues that might accrue to the City from mitigation fees.

Police: The Police Department supports the proposed boundaries of this annexation
but note that this, like all annexations, will likely increase the number of calls for
service. The accumulative impact of these annexations could eventually require
additional staff.
• Public Works Maintenance: The annual estimated cost of maintaining new streets
within the proposed annexation area is $2,644. This assumes approximately 2,115
linear feet of new roads to serve an estimated 17 homes in the area.
Transportation: The Transportation Systems Division reported that the proposed
annexation raised no concerns for them. This because the costs of upgrading existing
access streets serving the proposed annexation and those within it would be borne by
those developing properties here, rather than the City. The only expenses the City
would incur from a transportation standpoint would be those associated with new
signage and pavement markings, street lighting and maintenance costs.
ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION:
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:
The annexation policies generally support this 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. Renton is the
logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area (Policy LU-385). Policy
LU-388 states that, in general, the greater the contiguity with the city limits, the more
favorable the annexation. The proposed area for annexation abuts the city boundary on
only about 20 % of its perimeter. Future annexations nearby, as a consequence of this
annexation are expected to have a much higher percentage of their perimeters abutting
the City limits.
2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives:
a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities;
The proposed annexation does not split or change existing neighborhoods. The
Stonegate neighborhood to the east will not be impacted by this annexation and all
property owners within the proposed annexation have signed the 10% Notice of
Intent Petition to Commence Annexation. At an existing density of one unit per four
acres there is no established "neighborhood" per se, in this unincorporated area.
b. Use of Physical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies of water, highways,
and land contours;
The proposed annexation abuts the City of Renton along its eastern boundary and a
portion of its southern boundary. The shape of this proposed annexation the result of
the accumulated shapes of the five parcels that make it up.
c. Creation and preservation of logical service areas;
The proposed annexation area is split with the western four parcels within the Renton
School District and the eastern (Merritt) parcel within the Issaquah School District.
Similarly the western four parcels are within Fire District No. 25 and the eastern
parcel is within Fire District No. 10. A similar situation occurs with water service
with the western four parcels within Renton's Water Service Area and the eastern

(Merritt) parcel in Water District No. 90's water service area. All five parcels are
within Renton's Wastewater Service Area with the nearest sewer line in the Lyons
Avenue NE right-of-way. These boundaries have been approved by the various
districts and adopted by King County.
d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries;
The proposed boundaries are not "abnormally" irregular. In order to not adversely
impact existing neighborhoods yet provide access to city services and in particular
wastewater, these boundaries are reasonable for the interim. We anticipate future
annexations will infill any existing gaps or indentations.
e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of
incorporations of cities in excess of ten thousand population in heavily populated
urban areas;
Not applicable.
f. Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts;
There are no known inactive special purpose districts in this area.
g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries;
4
This annexation is not being proposed to adjust what are considered to be impractical
boundaries.
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 because of its location
within the Urban Growth Area boundary. The county has also indicated that it wants
to divest itself from providing urban services to these unincorporated urban areas.
i. 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 this proposed annexation are designated for long
term productive agricultural use in either the King County or Renton Comprehensive
Plans.
CONCLUSION:
The proposal is essentially consistent with City policies related to annexation as well as Boundary
Review board objectives and criteria for annexations. No impediments to the provision of City
services to the area have been identified. The City already provides fire services to Fire District
No. 25, under contract, for example, so there should be no change in service for the four parcels
currently served by this district. Water service will be provided by the City to the western four
parcels and District No. 90 will provide service to the eastern (Merritt) parcel. School district
boundaries will not change as a result of this proposed annexation.
An initial fiscal analysis was conducted by staff for this proposed annexation. Assuming an
assessed value of $400,000 per new home, it indicated an annual surplus of $2,208 to the City
under current projected revenues and costs, and a one time estimated cost of $10,866 for parks
acquisition and/or improvements. A more detailed analysis may. be conducted following receipt
of the County's certification of the 50% Petition to annex, if Council authorizes its circulation.

SUBJECT: Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) 2003-2005 Funding Contract
ISSUE:
Since the State CTR Law was passed in 1991, every two years, the City of Renton enters into an
agreement with the State of Washington Department of Transportation to accept money from the
State. The State money is used to fund the City efforts in support of activities mandated by the
Washington State CTR Law.
RECOMMENDATION:
Transportation Systems Division staff recommends the Council approve the resolution and
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into the agreement with the State for implementation
of Citywide CTR Program in the amount of $40,986.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Renton implements a program in accordance with the State CTR Law to monitor
Renton employers with CTR-affected worksites for progress and compliance. This law was
enacted as part of the Washington State Clean Air Act to provide measures that would improve
air quality and manage congestion by encouraging the use of alternatives to single occupancy
vehicle (SOV) commute travel through the use of incentives to employees at businesses with 100
or more employees arriving to work between 6 and 9AM.
Renton contracts each year with King County Metro Transit Division (KC Metro) to provide
staff who offer technical assistance to Renton businesses affected by the CTR Law. The funds
provided by the State cover the expenses of the contract between KC Metro and the City of
Renton and City staff administrative labor.

State Department of Transportation, acting by and through its Secretary of Transportation,
(hereinafter called "WSDOT") and City of Renton (hereinafter referred to as "Contractor") and
said parties WITNESS THAT:
WHEREAS, RCW 70.94.521 through 70.94.551 requires cities, counties and towns containing
"major employers," in counties with populations over 150,000, to develop ordinances, plans and
programs to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and single occupant vehicle (SOV) commute
trips, and thereby reduce vehicle -related air pollution, traffic congestion and energy use;
WHEREAS, RCW 70.94.541 (2) provides for technical assistance to counties, cities, and towns
in developing and implementing Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) plans and programs;
WHEREAS, RCW 70.94.544 provides for distribution of funds for local CTR implementation
efforts;
WHEREAS, WSDOT desires to achieve trip reduction in order to improve the efficiency of the
state transportation system and the quality of life for citizens of the State of Washington;
WHEREAS, the Washington State Legislature's delay in approving continued funding for the
CTR program requires this contract to be effective retroactive to July 1, 2003 to preserve
continuity of program funding.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of covenants, conditions, performances and promises
herein contained, the parties agree to the following terms and conditions:
Section 1
Purpose of Agreement

costs. Payment will be made on a reimbursable basis. Payment is subject to the submission to,
and approval by, WSDOT of properly prepared invoices accompanied by progress reports and

shall be permitted to audit, examine and make excerpts or transcripts from such records, and to
make audits of all contracts, invoices, materials, payrolls, and other matters covered by this

hereto.

2004 to June 30, 2005 in accordance with the methodology described in Sections 1 and 2 of
Exhibit I, Funding Allocation Methodology. If an increase in funding by the funding
source augments the Contractor's allocation of funding under this Agreement, the Contractor
and WSDOT agree to enter into an amendment to this Agreement providing for an
appropriate change in the Scope of Work and/or the project amount in order to reflect any
such increase in funding.
3. If a reduction of funding by the funding source reduces the Contractor's allocation of funding

amount equivalent to the extent of noncompliance. Such right of recapture shall exist for a

Contractor to terminate the Agreement in whole or in part; or
6. WSDOT determines that suspension or termination is in the best interests of the state.

Contractor may be reimbursed only for actual and eligible direct expenses under this Agreement
incurred prior to the date of termination, and then only to the extent of appropriated funds. If this
Agreement is terminated under subsection 1 of this Section, then WSDOT shall not be obligated
to provide any additional reimbursement past the effective date of that termination and WSDOT

the terms of those contracts.

Exhibit I
Funding Allocation Methodology
Funding allocated by WSDOT for local implementation of CTR activities is based on the
following formula:
1. Each county is provided $1,200 per affected worksite as a base allocation to ensure
sufficient funding to meet jurisdiction obligations pursuant to RCW.70.94.521-551. The
number of affected worksites in each county shall be based on information contained in
WSDOT database as of May 1 of each year.
2. The remaining funding will be allocated based on the number of commute trips reduced
per day in each county between each worksite's base year survey and its most recent
survey, provided that every county receives at least $80,000 per year. For the period July
1, 2003 through June 30, 2004, the most recent survey period will be 2001. For the
period July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2005, the most recent survey period will be 2003.

Transportation Demand Management Program Functional Classification: N/A Fund: 317
Proj. Length: N/A Proj: 12M
RANK: 26 CONTACT: Nate Jones 425.430.7217
DESCRIPTION:
Renton's TDM program implements the State's Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Act by encouraging a
reduction in the use of single occupancy vehicles (SOV). Incentives are offered to employees (at
businesses with 106 or more employees) arriving to work between 6 and 9 AM. The City has two CTR
programs: 1. The Citywide and 2. the City Hall CTR program (see note below). The TIP funds the
Citywide CTR Program and offers technical assistance to Renton businesses affected by the Act.
JUSTIFICATION:
The City is required by 1991 State Legislation to develop and implement a CTR program. This law
applies to areas of the State with continuing air quality problems. TDM is an important element in
achieving desired transportation, environmental, and land use goals.
N gk: Renton City Hall is an affected CTR site and must implement its own CTR program for City
employees; it is funded outside the TIP program.
Project Totals Programme Pre-2004
STATUS:
It is expected that technical assistance to employers for the Citywide program will
continue at current levels in 2004 provided State funds in support of this program
continue to be provided.
CHANGES:
Renton has received a State grant for $42,878 (July 2002 - June 2003) to help fund the
Citywide CTR program. Additional State grant funds may be available in 2004 and
beyond, but actual amounts and details of this funding is currently unknown.

Contract
ISSUE:
Each year since the State CTR Law was passed in 1991, the City of Renton enters into an
agreement with the King County Department of Transportation to allow Metro Transit Division
staff to perform the State -mandated duties specified by the Washington State CTR Law on behalf
of the City of Renton.
RECOMMENDATION:
Transportation Systems Division staff recommends the Council approve the resolution and

implementation of the Citywide CTR Program in the amount of $39,332.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Renton implements a program in accordance with the State CTR Law to monitor
Renton employers with CTR-affected worksites for progress and compliance. This law was
enacted as part of the Washington State Clean Air Act to provide measures that would improve
air quality and manage congestion by encouraging the use of alternatives to single occupancy
vehicle (SOV) commute travel through the use of incentives to employees at businesses with 100
or more employees arriving to work between 6 and 9AM.
Renton contracts each year with King County Department of Transportation Metro Transit
Division to provide staff who offer technical assistance to Renton businesses affected by the
CTR Law. Funding provided by the State covers the expenses of the King County contract and

Renton monthly utility statement includes Waste Water and Surface Water, hard to understa
when heavy storm water runoff requires yearly ongoing sump pump usage at my home with water
a .foot high under the house at times reaching the insulation wrap on the underhouse heating
ducts. Since the heavy rain two weeks ago my sump pump burned out. I borrowed a pump from
a neice that a neighbor kindly installed in the sump hole. As water pumping still necessary
I have to keep a careful check on the pump as it is not automatic. Since 1958 five sump
pumps have been purchased with a sixth needed soon.
The home was built forty five years ago on a lot on the west side of 21 hundred block of
Smithers Avenue South. At that time the east side of roadway was lower than the west side
sloping off to the east in a duck pood thru vacant land. We bad been .in three floods in the
Valley when we purchased the home site boping to get away from water problems. No water
existed until two homes were built in the field. on east side of roadway requiring tons of
fill dirt the equivalent of a full basement. Drainage problems started shortly after also,
septic tank overflow water from across the street when water table high. Due to the
drainage the County dug a shallow ditch and check the drainage underroad ditch on the 22nd
hundred block that ran across a field towards Talbot Road. The problem was not solved.
Renton annexed the area requiring sewage systems to be installedzwhich helped the septic
overflow from across the roadway but not the storm water runoff: Sometime later they had
workmen dig the ditch much deeper which put our sump pump into storage as i.t was not needed.
Some time bad passesd when a land owner across the roadway bad land. subdivied. At that time
we asked Renton not to allow fill dirt as the land was .as low as our lot. The owner
promised us no fill would be used. Regardless up to a foot of fill was brought in. Shortly
after a Renton water main broke when construction was started an new home site. When it
was discovered we had water up to the heating ducts bringing wrapping down in the water. It
put my busband in the Hospital due to the mess.
For some reason Renton decided to cover the ditch by putting in a round pipe with cover. At
that time I asked to have ditch remain open as it had been our only relief. I asked then if
a French drain could be installed instead of a round pipe relating the drainage problem. They
said not necessary.
Strom water problem was back. Renton installed a berm on the west side of roadway which
helped a little on street water. At times the street water came over_ the berm into the car
port. Water rolls over the covered pipe on eastside of roadway, under the pipe and very
little water runs thru it of one checks the northend of pipe where it connects with the deep
open ditch.
I've heard street work may be considered next spring on the roadway on the 27st and 22nd
block of Smithers Ave. So. I would appreciate a check into the ongoing Storm water drainage
problem first in hopes of finding a solution. The home next door to the South is also having
pumping problems. If you will note water is now standing on the corner lot of 23rd and
Smithers that may require fill dirt when new homes constructed which could cause more high
water table to the low houses on the street. Thank you for your kind attention to my request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON,
ENCOURAGING THE WASHINGTON STATE LEGISLATURE, THE
WASHINGTON STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, KING
COUNTY AND AFFECTED JURISDICTIONS TO JOIN IN WORKING
TO IMPROVE SAFETY AND CAPACITY ON THE SR-169 CORRIDOR.
WHEREAS, SR-169 is an important transportation corridor for both commuters and
commercial vehicles; linking the cities of Enumclaw, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and Renton;
and intersecting with SR-164, SR-516, SR-18, and I-405; and
WHEREAS, significant growth has taken place recently along the SR-169 corridor and
now there are parts of the highway that clearly need more capacity and safety improvements to
catch up with this growth wave; and
WHEREAS, significant future growth is still projected to come along this overburdened
corridor, as it remains one of the areas with the greatest growth capacity in King County as
defined by the Growth Management Act; and
WHEREAS, there are significant safety issues on SR-169 for our youth, since several
schools — with minimal sidewalk access — border the highway; and
and
WHEREAS, there are frequent accidents and fatalities along some stretches of the road;
WHEREAS, the cities along the corridor each have already invested considerable funds
to make improvements within their city boundaries to this State highway; and

is reduced to just two lanes; and
WHEREAS, the Washington State Department of Transportation in previous years has
proposed to the Legislature that money be allocated to fund a corridor study of SR-169, but due
to competing requests the Legislature has yet to allocate this needed funding; and
WHEREAS, in order to ensure that this vital corridor receives attention and funding, a
consortium of interested parties has been formed, consisting of the cities, chambers of commerce,
and school districts along the SR-169 corridor;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON,
WASHINGTON, DO RESOLVE AS. FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. Corridor Study. The City of Renton strongly urges the Washington
State Department of Transportation to carry out the previously proposed SR-169 corridor study
as quickly as possible. The Washington State Legislature and State Transportation Commission
are encouraged to allocate funds and give their support for this important study to happen.
The City of Renton will consider programming a fair share contribution to the SR 169
Corridor Study consistent with other jurisdictions along this corridor in the City's 2005-2010
Transportation Improvement Program
SECTION H. County Reclassification. Only part of SR-169 currently has the
classification as being part of the county "regional arterial network." We strongly urge King
County to reclassify the remaining portion of this highway so that it, too, is in the regional arterial
network.
