PUBLIC HEARINGS
This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in
Development Services:
accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Keolker-Wheeler reopened the
Wireless Communication
public hearing continued from 9/13/2004 to consider the proposed City Code
Facilities in Residential Zones
amendments to permit wireless communication facilities in residential zones.
Jennifer Henning, Principal Planner, explained that the proposed amendments
will allow wireless antennas to be attached to existing street standards or light
poles, or allow the changing out of those poles for taller ones to accommodate
the antennas. She noted that in both instances, an administrative conditional
use permit is required. Ms. Henning stated that the proposal received a
determination of non -significance from the Environmental Review Committee,
and no appeals were filed during the appeal period that ended on October 15th.
Ms. Henning addressed the five concerns expressed at the previous public
hearing, as follows:
L Ability to contact wireless providers in the event of any problems. The
building permit application form will be changed to request a 24-hour
contact phone number.
2. Interference with public safety radio communications. Existing City Code
language pertaining to interference with localized television and radio
broadcasts will be amended to also address interference with public safety
communications.
3. Removal of graffiti from equipment cabinets. Existing City Code language
concerning prohibition of advertisements or logos on equipment cabinets
will be amended to also include graffiti.
October 18, 2004 Renton City Council Minutes Page 357
4. Long-term maintenance of landscaping around equipment cabinets.
According to City Code, any existing landscaping must be maintained.
5. View obstruction. The wireless facilities have a unique set of criteria that
must be met before an administrative conditional use permit is granted.
The criteria address the design of the tower, surrounding topography and
tree cover, relationship to residential structures, and compatibility with
Comprehensive Plan and zoning.
Public comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY
PERSSON, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC
HEARING. CARRIED.
MOVED BY LAW, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL AUTHORIZE

THE ORDINANCE. CARRIED.
Annexation: Johnson, 142nd This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in
Ave SE accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Keolker-Wheeler opened the
public hearing to consider the proposed annexation and R-8 zoning of 18.24
acres, including the abutting street right-of-way, located east of 142nd Ave. SE
and south of NE 9th St., if extended (Johnson Annexation).
Don Erickson, Senior Planner, reported that this is the second of two public
hearings, and the King County Boundary Review Board approved the proposal
effective 8/16/2004. The essentially flat site (with slight slope) contains eight
single-family dwellings, and is paralleled by Honey Creek on its eastern
boundary. Reviewing the public services, Mr. Erickson indicated that the area
is served by Fire District #25, Water District #90, Renton sewer, and the
Renton School District.
Mr. Erickson stated that current King County zoning is R-4 (four dwelling units
per gross acre). The Renton Comprehensive Plan designates this site as
Residential Single Family, for which R-8 (eight dwelling units per net acre)
zoning is recommended. He noted that on a typical ten -acre site, Renton's R-8
zoning allows approximately 66 units and King County's R-4 zoning, with
bonuses, allows 60 units.
Continuing, Mr. Erickson reviewed the fiscal impact analysis, assuming a new
home value of $300,000 and an increase to 106 single-family homes at full
development. The City will realize a deficit of $948 at current development,
and a surplus of $44 at full development. In conclusion, Mr. Erickson said the
proposed annexation is consistent with City annexation policies, furthers City
business goals, and serves the best interests and general welfare of the City.
Public comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY LAW,
SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work
programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2004 and beyond. Items noted
included:
* The fall softball season ended last week with playoff games at Liberty Park.
Participation in the adult softball leagues was up 21% this year, with 144
teams representing over 2,160 players for the three seasons offered.
* The City received a letter from Union Pacific Railroad conditionally
agreeing to allow Renton to move the Union Pacific railroad tracks to an
alignment next to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks at the
Longacres Commuter Rail Station. This approval is key in the City's ability
to build the Strander Blvd. and SW 27th St. extension project.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Brandy Reed, 335 Stevens Ave. SW, Renton, 98055, spoke on the topic of
Citizen Comment: Reed - SW design guidelines with respect to the SW Sunset Blvd. rezone and the
Sunset Blvd Rezone,
Commercial Neighborhood zoning designation. She said City staff advised that
Commercial Neighborhood
the issue of design guidelines for commercial designations will be brought
Zone Design Guidelines
forward at a later date. Ms. Reed relayed that staff also pointed out the
existence of a footnote that applies to office redevelopment in the Commercial
Neighborhood zone, and specifically addresses developing in character with the
adjacent neighborhood. She requested that the footnote be rewritten to include
retail as well as office space redevelopment so as to cover the interim between
now and when the design guidelines are adopted in the future.
Responding to Council inquiry, Councilwoman Briere stated that the Planning
and Development Committee concurred in applying the guideline to both office
and retail businesses, and it will be incorporated in the future design guidelines.
Alex Pietsch, Economic Development Administrator, noted that he cannot find
that such a footnote exists.
MOVED BY BRIERE, SECONDED BY LAW, COUNCIL REFER THE
ISSUE OF DESIGN GUIDELINES CONCERNING CHARACTER
PRESERVATION IN THE COMMERCIALNEIGHBORHOOD ZONE TO
THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE. CARRIED.
Citizen Comment: Bramblet -
John Bramblet, 441 SW 41st St., Renton, 98055, thanked Council for
Rename SW 41st St to SW
rescinding its decision to rename SW 41st St. to SW IKEA Way (on
IKEA Way
10/4/2004).
Citizen Comment: Telschow'-
Sarah Telschow, 516 SW 3rd Pl., Renton, 98055, spoke on the topic of the
SW Sunset Blvd Comp Plan
proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment and subsequent Development
Amendment
Regulations proposal for the SW Sunset Blvd. area. Ms. Telschow commented
that the Comprehensive Plan amendment was rushed, and a number of impacts
were not addressed such as traffic flow, and the increase of the unit density to
four units per structure. She expressed concern that the Comprehensive Plan is
being changed without first having applicable development codes that would
determine whether or not a Comprehensive Plan change is adequate and meets
the needs of nearby residents.
Mayor Keolker-Wheeler pointed out that the Comprehensive Plan review
process has undergone extensive deliberation by the Planning Commission, as
well as the City Council.

ISSUE:
Current City Code does not permit monopoles or extension of existing utility poles for
cellular/wireless antennas in residentially zoned neighborhoods. Wireless/cellular
companies are having difficulty providing good phone coverage in certain Renton
neighborhoods as a result of this restriction.
Staff have developed draft amendments to Chapter 4 of Title 4 during review of the
existing Wireless Regulations. These recommended amendments respond to the
expressed needs of the wireless purveyors, allowing the replacement of existing power
poles or light standards with taller poles on a limited basis in order to accommodate
wireless antennas. These limited pole replacements would only be allowed if the need
is clearly demonstrated by the service provider, and phone coverage cannot be provided
using other permitted antenna locations.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Development Services Division recommends amending the Wireless Regulations.
The amendments would:
1. Allow wireless communication antennas (of up to 16 feet) to be placed on existing
power poles (subject to approval of Puget Sound Energy) and/or existing City street
light standards.
2. Allow replacement of existing power poles (subject to the approval of Puget Sound
Energy) and/or replacement of existing City street lights with taller support structures
in order to allow the installation of antennas up to 16 feet in height.
3. Permit new antenna greater than 10 feet in height, or pole replacement for use as a
monopole, only when it is demonstrated by the service provider that no practical
alternative is available to provide the same level of phone service.
4. Allow the installation of associated equipment cabinets within public street right-of-
way or on abutting residentially zoned properties. These structures would be
required to be located underground, or in suitable locations with appropriate
screening.

JOHNSON ANNEXATION PUBLIC HEARING
COUNCIL EFFECTUATION OF ANNEXATION
WITH R-8 ZONING
October 18, 2004
City Council accepted the 60% Direct Petition to Annex in April 2004 and authorized the
Administration to forward the Notice of Intent package to the BRB at that time. The City is in
receipt of the Boundary Review Boards Closing Letter of August 20, 2004 and has now
completed its environmental review for the proposed R-8 zoning of the 18.24-acre annexation
site. The first of two required public hearings on rezoning the site from King County's R-4, 4
units per gross acre zone to Renton's R-8, 8 units per net acre R-8 zoning was also held at that
time.
Tonight's public hearing will be the second on the proposed rezoning of the subject site.
Because Renton calculates density based upon net acreage and the County calculates density
based upon gross acreage, the difference in the number of units allowed is not as large as the
proposed new zoning designation would suggest. Also, the County's R-4 zone allows bonus of
up to 6 units per gross acre. On a typical 10 acre site Renton's R-8 zone would allow
approximately 66 units and King County's R-4 zoning, with bonuses, would allow 60 units.
The subject site is within the City's Potential Annexation Area and is designated Residential
Single Family on the City's Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (see map on back). With R-8
zoning staff estimate that up to 98 single-family dwelling units could be accommodated on the
16.53-acre no street portion of the site.
If the Council decides to effectuate this annexation an annexation ordinance has been prepared
for first reading. Similarly, if the Council supports rezoning the site R-8, upon annexation
consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan land use designation for it, a zoning ordinance
has also been prepared for first reading this evening.
Recommendation:
The Administration is recommending that Council support R-8 zoning for the Johnson
Annexation site, consistent with its current Comprehensive Plan land use designation, and
effectuate both the annexation and its rezoning through the two ordinances prepared for first
reading after tonight's public hearing.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 18, 2004
TO: Don Persson, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
FROM: Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Mayor
Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Administrative Report
In addition to our day-to-day activities, the following items are worthy of note for this week:
COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT
• The annual Boo Carnival will be held at the Renton Community Center on Saturday, October 30'h, from 10:00
a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Children aged eight and under will enjoy crafts, games, and inflatables. The event is co-
sponsored with Stoneway Concrete. A carnival pass for all activities is $6 and concessions will be available
for purchase.
• The fall softball season ended last week with playoff games at Liberty Park. Participation in the adult softball
leagues was up 21% this year, with 144 teams representing over 2,160 players for the three seasons offered.
• The After -School Skyhawks Sports Clubs began last week with 120 children participating in the first sessions
held at four Renton School District elementary school sites.
• Renton Rookies Athletics for boys and girls ages four to six years began last week with 100 children enrolled.
With a waiting list of 80 children, it is hoped that additional classes can be formed.
• Basketball season officially arrived in Renton with ten teams (just under 100 children) forming the first and
second grade basketball league, sixteen teams (160 players) forming the men's basketball league, and 126
registered for the pre -season basketball classes for elementary and middle school students. Students can now
register through October 22°a for the third through ninth grade boys and girls leagues.
PLANNINGBUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
• The City received a letter from Union Pacific Railroad conditionally agreeing to allow Renton to move the
Union Pacific railroad tracks to an alignment next to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks at the
Longacres Commuter Rail Station. This approval is key in the City's ability to build the Strander Blvd./SW
27th St. Extension project.

1) All plat improvements shall be either constructed or deferred to the satisfaction of City staff prior
to the recording of the plat.
2) All fees shall be paid prior to the recording of the plat.

ORDINANCE NO.
SECTION II. Section 4-2-020 of Chapter 2, "Purpose and Intent of
Zoning Districts" is hereby amended to delete the Purpose and Intent Statement for the R-5 zone,
add the Purpose and Intent Statement for the R-4 zone and amend the Purpose and Intent
Statements of all zones to read as follows.
4-2-020 PURPOSE AND INTENT OF ZONING DISTRICTS:
A. GENERAL:
Reviewing Official approval of projects in the zones is contingent upon the determination
that the proposed developments are consistent with the purpose of the zone and the
purpose and intent of the Land Use Designations and guiding policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element policies for each corresponding zone
classification and the Community Design Element, Housing Element, Environmental
Element, and Utilities Element shall be used together with the purpose statements for
each zone and map designation set forth in the following sections to guide interpretation
and application of land use regulations within the zones and designations and any
changes to the range of permitted uses within each zone through amendments to the
code.
B. RESOURCE CONSERVATION ZONE (RC):
The Resource Conservation Zone (RC) is established to provide a very low -density
residential zone that endeavors to provide some residential use of lands characterized by
extensive critical areas or lands with agricultural uses. This zone promotes uses that are
compatible with the functions and values of designated critical areas and allows for
continued production of food and agricultural products. No minimum density is required.
The Resource Conservation Zone is also intended to provide separation between areas
of more intense urban uses; encourage or preserve very low -density residential uses;
reduce the intensity of uses in accordance with the extent of environmentally sensitive
areas such as floodplains, wetlands and streams, aquifers, wildlife habitat, steep slopes,
and other geologically hazardous areas; allow for small-scale farming to commence or
continue, and provide viable uses within urban separators.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction in the Residential Low -density land use designation, Objectives LU-DD
and LU-EE, Policies LU-133 through LU-146, and the Community Design Element of the
Comprehensive Plan.
C. RESIDENTIAL-1 DU/ACRE (R-1):
The Residential-1 Dwelling Unit Per Net Acre Zone (R-1) is established to provide and
protect suitable environments for residential development of lands characterized by
pervasive critical areas where limited residential development will not compromise critical
areas. The zone provides for suburban estate single-family and clustered single-
familyresidential dwellings, at a maximum density of one dwelling unit per net acre and
allows for small scale farming associated with residential use. It is further intended to
protect critical areas, provide separation between neighboring jurisdictions through
3
ORDINANCE NO.
designation of urban separators as adopted by the Countywide Policies and prohibit the
development of incompatible uses that may be detrimental to the residential or natural
environment. No minimum density is required.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Residential Low -density land use designation,
Objectives LU-DD and LU-EE, Policies LU-133 through LU-146, and the Community
Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
D. RESIDENTIAL-4 DU/ACRE (R-4):
The Residential-4 Dwelling Units Per Net Acre Zone (R-4) is established to promote
urban single-family residential neighborhoods serviceable by urban utilities and
containing amenity open spaces. The Residential-4 Dwelling Units Per Acre Zone (R-4)
will allow a maximum net density of four (4) dwelling units per net acre. No minimum
density is required. The R-4 designation serves as a transition between rural designation
zones and higher density residential zones. It is intended as an intermediate lower
density residential zone; applied to Residential Low-densitySingle-family(RLD)
Comprehensive Plan land use designation on the Land Use Map and subject to the
Residential Low -density -Residential 4 du/ac Overlay policies of the City.
Larger lot subdivisions are preferred, however, "small lot clusters" are allowed on sites
where open space amenities are created. Resulting development is intended to be
superior in design and siting than that which would normally otherwise occur. Small lot
assemblages may also meet objectives such as the provision of efficient sewer services.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Residential Low -density land use designation,
Objectives LU-DD and LU-EE, Policies 133 through LU-146, and the Community Design
Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
E. RESIDENTIAL-8 DU/ACRE (R-8):
The Residential-8 Dwelling Units Per Net Acre Zone (R-8) is established for single-family
residential dwellings allowing a range of 4 (4) to eight (8) dwelling units per net acre.
Development in the R-8 Zone is intended to create opportunities for new single-family
residential neighborhoods and to facilitate high -quality infill development that promotes
reinvestment in existing single-familyneighborhoods. It is intended to accommodate uses
that are compatible with and support a high quality residential environment and add to a
sense of community.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction estabished in the Residential Single-family land use designation,
Objective LU-FF, Policies LU-147 through LU-156, and the Community Design Element
of the Comprehensive Plan.
F. RESIDENTIAL MANUFACTURED HOME PARK ZONE (RMH):
The Residential Manufactured Home Park Zone (RMH) is established to promote
development that is single-family in character and developed to offer a choice in land
tenancy. Standards provide for safe and high -quality manufactured home
4
ORDINANCE NO.
neighborhoods. The RMH Zone is intended to protect established manufactured home
parks and to expand the variety of affordable housing types available within the City.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Residential Single-family land use designation,
Objective LU-FF, Policies LU-147 through LU-156 or the Residential Medium -density
land use designation, Objectives LU-GG and/through LU-II, Policies LU-157 through LU-
181 and the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
G. RESIDENTIAL-10 DU/ACRE (R-10):
The Residential-10 Dwelling Units Per Net Acre Zone (R-10) is established for medium -
density residential development that will provide a mix of residential styles including
detached dwellings or semi -attached dwellings on small lots, attached townhouses, and
small-scale attached flats. Development promoted in the zone is intended to increase
opportunities for detached and semi -attached single-family dwellings as a percent of the
housing stock, as well as allow some small-scale attached housing choices and to create
high -quality infill development that increases density while maintaining the single-family
character of the existing neighborhood. Allowable base densities range from four (4) to
ten (10) dwelling units per net acre. The zone serves as a transition to higher density
multi -family zones.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Residential Medium -density land use designation,
Objectives LU-GG and/through LU-Il, Policiies LU-157 through LU-181 or the Center
Village land use designation, Objective LU-CCC, Policies LU-317 through 332 and the
Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
H. RESIDENTIAL-14 DU/ACRE (R-14):
The purpose of the Residential-14 Dwelling Units Per Net Acre Zone (R-14) is to
encourage development of new residential neighborhoods that provide a mix of
detached, semi -attached, and attached dwelling structures organized and designed to
combine characteristics of both typical detached single-family and small-scale multi-
family developments. Densities range from eight (8) to fourteen (14) units per net acre
with opportunities for bonuses up to eighteen (18) dwelling units per net acre. Structure
size is intended to be limited in terms of bulk and scale so that the various unit types
allowed in the zone are compatible with one another and can be integrated together into
a quality neighborhood. Project features are encouraged such as yards for private use,
common open spaces, and landscaped areas that enhance a neighborhood and foster a
sense of community. Civic and limited commercial uses may be combined with
residential development when they support the purpose of the designation.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Residential Medium -density land use designation,
Objectives LU-GG and/through LU-II, Policies LU-157 through LU-181, and the
Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
I. RESIDENTIAL MULTI -FAMILY (RM):
1. Purpose: The Residential Multi -Family Zone (RM-F) is established to implement
the Multi -Family policies of the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. The
RM-F Zone provides suitable environments for multi -family dwellings. It is further
5
ORDINANCE NO.
intended to conditionally allow uses that are compatible with and support a multi-
family environment.
2. Classifications: The density allowed under this zone will be identified by the suffix
that is applied. This zone will normally be applied with one of three (3) suffixes:
a. "U" (Urban Center): The RM-U Zone provides for high -density, urban -scale,
multi -family residential development that supports the downtown and allows
for alternative transportation mode choices. Development standards promote
a pedestrian scale environment and amenities. Density ranges from twenty
five (25) to seventy five (75) du/acre. This zone, combined with the CD and
RM-T Zones, is intended to implement the Urban Center defined in the
Comprehensive Plan.
b. b. "F" (Multi -Family): The RM-F Zone allows for the development of both
infill parcels in existing multi -family districts with compatible projects and
other multi -family development. Density ranges from ten (10) to twenty (20)
du/acre.
c. "T" (Traditional): The RM-T Zone occurs in areas where compact, traditional
residential neighborhood development already exists, or in Comprehensive Plan
designations where traditional residential neighborhoods are planned in the
future. Density ranges from fourteen (14) to thirty five (35) du/acre. (Amd. Ord.
4971, 6-10-2002)
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and

mixed -use commercial activities located outside the Urban Center. Use allowances
promote commercial and retail development opportunities for residents to shop locally.
Uses and standards allow complementary, high -density residential development, and
discourages garden -style, multi -family development. The Center Village Residential
Bonus District supports superior residential projects that complement commercial uses,
provide ground floor commercial activity along arterials, and provide transition between
intensive commercial areas and surrounding single-family and multi -family
neighborhoods.
2. Scale and Character: The Center Village Zone is intended to provide suitable
environments for district -scaled retail and commercial development serving more than
one neighborhood, but not providing City-wide services.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Center Village land use designation, Objective LU-
CCC, Policies LU-317 through 332, Residential Medium -density land use designation,
Objectives LU-GG and/through LU-I1, Policies LU-157 through LU-181, or the Residential
Multi -family land use designation, Objectives LU-JJ through LU-LL, Policies LU-182
through 192, and the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
L. COMMERCIAL ARTERIAL ZONE (CA):
The purpose of the Commercial Arterial Zone (CA) is to evolve from "strip commercial'
linear business districts to business areas characterized by enhanced site planning,
incorporating efficient parking lot design coordinated access, amenities and boulevard
treatment. The CA Zone provides for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor retail sales
and services along high -volume traffic corridors. The zone includes four designated
business districts along mapped corridors with development standards designed to
encourage concentrated commercial activity, a focal point of pedestrian activity along the
corridor, and visual interest. Designated business districts include: Automall, Sunset
Boulevard Corridor, Northeast Fourth Corridor, and the Rainier Avenue Corridor. The CA
zone is intended to implement the Commercial Corridor Comprehensive Plan
designation.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Commercial Corridor land use designation, Objectives
LU-DDD through LU-UUU, Policies LU-333 through LU-405 or the Employement Area -

ORDINANCE NO.
Multi -family land use designation, Objectives LU-JJ through LU-LL, Policies LU-182
through 192, and the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
N. COMMERCIAL OFFICE ZONE (CO):
The Commercial Office Zone (CO) is established to provide areas appropriate for
professional, administrative, and business offices and related uses, offering high -quality
and amenity work environments. In addition, a mix of limited retail and service uses may
be allowed to primarily support other uses within the zone, subject to special conditions.
Limited light industrial activities, which can effectively blend in with an office environment,
are allowed as are medical institutions and related uses.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Commercial Corridor land use designation, Objectives
LU-DDD through LU-UUU, Policies LU-333 through LU-405 or the Employment Area -
Valley land use designation, Objectives LU-ZZZ through LU-BBBB, Policies LU-445
through LU-460, and the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
0. COMMERCIAL/OFFICE/RESIDENTIAL ZONE (COR 1, COR 2, and COR 3):
1. Purpose: The purpose of the Commercial/ Office/Residential Zone is to provide for
a mix of intensive office, hotel, convention center, and residential activity in a high -
quality, master -planned development, that is integrated with the natural environment.
Commercial retail and service uses that are architecturally and functionally integrated
are permitted. Also, commercial uses that provide high economic value may be
allowed if designed with the scale and intensity envisioned for the COR Zone.
Policies governing these uses are contained in the Land Use Element,
Commercial/Office/Residential section of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The scale
and location of these sites will typically denote a gateway into the City and should be
designed accordingly.
2. Location: In order to address differing site conditions, and recognizing the
gateway and environmentally sensitive features of these sites, this zone is further
designated by location:
a. COR 1 is applied to the property in the vicinity of the property commonly
known as the "Old Stoneway Plant Concrete Site."
b. COR 2 is applied to property in the vicinity of the area commonly known as the
"Port Quendall Site."
c. COR 3 is applied to the properties commonly known collectively as
"Southport."
3. Scale and Intensity: COR 1 and 2 share the same uses and development
standards, but differ in heights allowed. COR 3 shares a majority of uses allowed in
COR 1 and COR 2 as well as most development standards, but differs primarily in
densities allowed. (Amd. Ord. 5001, 2-10-2003)

of the Comprehensive Plan.
P. LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONE (IL):
The purpose of the Light Industrial Zone (IL) is to provide areas for low -intensity
manufacturing, industrial services, distribution, and storage. Uses allowed in this zone
are generally contained within buildings. Material and/or equipment used in production
are not stored outside. Activities in this zone do not generate external emissions such as
smoke, odor, noise, vibrations, or other nuisances outside the building. Compatible uses
that directly serve the needs of other uses in the zone are also allowed.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Employment Area -Industrial land use designation,
Objective LU-YYY, Policies LU-437 through LU-444, Commercial Corridor land use
designation, Objectives LU-DDD through LU-UUU, Policies LU-333 through LU-405, or
the Employment Area -Valley land use designation, Objectives LU-ZZZ through LU-BBBB,
Policies LU-445 through LU-460, and the Community Design Element of the
Comprehensive Plan.
0. MEDIUM INDUSTRIALZONE (IM):
The purpose of the Medium Industrial Zone (IM) is to provide areas for medium -intensity
industrial activities involving manufacturing, processing, assembly and warehousing.
Uses in this zone may require some outdoor storage and may create some external
emissions of noise, odor, glare, vibration, etc. but these are largely contained on site.
Compatible uses that directly serve the needs of other uses permitted within the district
are also allowed.
Interpretation of uses and project review in this zone shall be based on the objectives and
policy direction established in the Employment Area -Industrial land use designation,
Objective LU-YYY, Policies LU-437 through LU-444 or the Employment Area -Valley land

S. URBAN CENTER — NORTH ZONES (UC-N1 AND UC-N2):
9
ORDINANCE NO.
1. Purpose: The Urban Center — North zones are established to provide an area for
pedestrian -scale mixed -use development that supports the residential and
employment goals of Renton's Urban Center. The UC-N1 and UC-N2 zones are
intended to attract a wide range of office, technology, commercial, and residential
uses. The overall mix and intensity of uses within both zones will develop over time.
Consequently, decisions made in early phases of redevelopment will need to take
into consideration the potential for further infill and intensification of uses. The overall
mix and intensity of uses is intended to create an urban rather than suburban
character. The form of development is expected to use urban development
standards and therefore, setbacks, heights, landscaping, parking, and design
standards are to be urban in scale and configured in a layout utilizing the street
system to create a human -scale pedestrian -oriented new center. Uses that support
urban center development are allowed. Development is expected to include
amenities such as gateways, water access, and open space. High quality
development is anticipated, encompassing a mix of residential neighborhoods,
shopping, and employment districts and public facilities. The designation is also
intended to allow continuation of airplane manufacturing and accessory airplane
manufacturing uses as land area formerly occupied by those uses is transformed to
combinations of retail, service, office, residential, and civic uses.
2. Classifications: The Urban Center North is divided into two zones:
a. Urban Center — North 1 (UC-N1): This zone is anticipated to be the first to
redevelop from airplane manufacturing and its accessory uses. The district is
intended to attract new retail, office, and technology -related uses that co -exist
with continued airplane manufacturing in the short run, but provide a standard of
development that stimulates further investment and transition of uses in the
longer term. Large-scale retail uses are allowed as anchors, which, when
combined with smaller pedestrian -oriented development, create a quality regional
retail area. Residential uses are allowed in a mixed -use format to support the
office/commercial mixed -use center. The UC-N1 zone establishes a gateway to
the overall UC-N designation and provides transition to industrial uses located to
the east and low -intensity residential and commercial areas to the south.
b. Urban Center — North 2 (UC-N2): This zone allows continued airplane
manufacturing and its accessory functions. Upon redevelopment, the UC-N2
zone is anticipated to become the core of the Urban Center — North. New
development in the zone is anticipated to create distinctive urban neighborhoods,
mixed use employment centers, and significant public open space and amenities.
The UC-N2 zone is distinguished by redevelopment that will be sensitive to and
take advantage of proximity to the urban shorelines along Lake Washington and
the Cedar River.
Interpretation of uses and project review in these zones shall be based on the objectives
and policy direction established in the Urban Center -North land use designation,
Objectives LU-YY and LU-ZZ, Policies LU-297 through LU-313 (Urban Center -North 1
Zone) or Objectives LU-AAA and LU-BBB, Policies LU-314 through LU-316 (Urban
Center -North 2 Zone), and the Community Design Element of the Comprehensive Plan.

details of the residential portion of the building.
F. Additional Design Standards for Center Village:
In evaluating compliance with special development standards in the Center Village
Residential Bonus District RMC 4-3-09561, the Planning/Building/Public Works
Department shall rely on the recommendations contained within the report on design
criteria prepared by the Economic Development, Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning
Administrator or designee. Projects in the Center Village (CV) zone shall meet all of the
following criteria:
a. Project uses a street grid system where most buildings front on a street.
Where no public streets exist, a private street grid system within the project is
provided.
b. Project orients residential developments to the street and has primary building
entries facing the street. Entries are identified with a prominent feature or detail.
c. Parking garages are designed in a way that does not dominate the facade of
the residential building. When garages must be located with vehicular access in
the front, due to physical constraints of the property, they are stepped back from
the facade of the building.
d. Parking lots are oriented to minimize their visual impact on the site and are
designed so that the size and landscaping support tlie residential character of the
developments in contrast to adjacent commercial areas.
e. Project provides direct pedestrian access from the street fronting the building
and from the back where parking is located.
f. Walkways through parking areas are well-defined and provide access from
public sidewalks into the site. Walkway width is a minimum of five feet (5').
Pavers, changes in color, texture or composition of paving are used.
g. Pedestrian connections are provided to the surrounding neighborhood.

ORDINANCE NO.
h. Distinctive building design is provided. No single architectural style is required,
however, reliance on standardized "corporate" or "franchise" style is discouraged.
i. Exterior materials are attractive even when viewed up close. These materials
have texture, pattern, or lend themselves to a high level of quality and detailing.
j. A consistent visual identity is applied to all sides of buildings that can be seen
by the general public.
k. At least one (1) of the following features is incorporated in structures
containing three (3) or more attached dwellings:
i. For each dwelling unit, provide at least one architectural projection not less
than two feet (2') from the wall plane and not less than four feet (4') wide, or
ii. Incorporate building modulation to reduce the overall bulk and mass of
buildings, or
iii. Vertical and horizontal modulation of roof lines and facades of a minimum
of two feet (2') at an interval of a minimum of forty feet (40') on a building
face or an equivalent standard which adds interest and quality to the project.

At the September 20, 2004 City Council Meeting the Council concurred in a
Transportation Committee Report and the Council approved an agreement between
the City and WSDOT called "A memorandum of understanding".
Included in this understanding was the following paragraph:
Page 4: Section I. WSDOT will perform the lead role on I-405 Corridor
community involvement. WSDOT will keep the CITY informed of the community
involvement activities it is undertaking and provide involvement roles for CITY
when appropriate.
This paragraph tells me that not only is the City not going to be available for
"community" differences with WSDOT, that affect not only Renton Hill, but also
Talbot Hill, South Renton, North Renton and Kennydale. We have all been left with
out representation.
From the first meeting, on February 26th' with WSDOT Renton Hill has expressed
the need for two accesses. Many questions have been ask of WSDOT and many
more meetings taken place. None of our questions have been answered and none of
the meetings were any more than a placating sham. This week WSDOT finally
stated, "Renton Hill only needs one access". When ask to define "needs" no reply
was given.
If the Council was not aware of these meetings or the letters generated to WSDOT
or the lack of honesty or the lack of replies to all questions, one can only guess that
WSDOT decided it was "Not Appropriate"
How is it that our "Elected Officials" who are to represent all residents in the City
of Renton have left all decisions on the 405 rebuild in the hands of a group of people
who drew it on paper, have no consideration for anything but concrete, and will be
allowed to place tax paying voters with no voice.
Please do not justify this with a "for the greater good" statement. All you have to do
is check out how much the Renton Ave. So. bridge has sunk and then note that the
Cedar Ave. So. bridge has also slowly started to sink.
To say we are disappointed doesn't even come close. Our City Council has left all of
us without representation.

"GOOD NEWS" ANNOUNCEMENTS
October 13, 2004
* Letters written by students in Julie Owen's fifth -grade class at Renton Park Elementary School were
recently featured in the Seattle PI. The students, while working on a social studies project, read a previous
story in the newspaper featuring 11-year-old Seth Cook, a boy who is fighting a rare genetic disorder that
has caused his body to age to 80-years-old. The students, using several activities including detail analysis,
Venn diagrams, and discussions, wrote letters to Seth about
their similarities and how they enjoy the same animals, foods and hobbies. Seth shared the letters with the
newspaper. The students, said Julie, really wanted to let Seth know that he was just like them: an
11-year-old who really enjoys life.
* Christine Robson, an ESL teacher at Dimmitt Middle School, has been selected as one of 12 "Heroes"
to win the Bon-Macy's Breast Cancer Survivor Award and will be featured in a Breast Cancer Survivor
fashion show at the downtown Seattle Bon-Macy's on Saturday, Oct. 16 at 10:30 a.m. (which, incidentally,
is also Christine's birthday). Christine was nominated by two Dimmitt staff members and was selected out
of nearly 100 nominations. Her picture will also be featured this month in one of
the large windows at the Seattle Bon-Macy's as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
* Staff, students and parents at Sierra Heights Elementary School recently held a mini -emergency drill to
test the school's ability to effectively react to a disaster. Staff has received emergency -related training and
each has been assigned a specific role should an emergency occur. The drills, at times, include tending to
injured students and staff. Thanks to financial help from the PTSA, the school has all the needed supplies
and equipment to be self-sufficient for up to three days in the event of an emergency. Principal Nanci
Davis says this kind of planning gives her staff, students and parents confidence that they'll be ready
should an emergency happen.
* Lydia Barker, family liaison at Cascade and Renton Park elementary schools, is reporting a significant
increase in the need for housing, food and clothing among district families this year. She said the need
this fall is greater than she's experienced in the past. Fortunately, said Lydia, community members,
agencies and organizations within the Renton School District are prepared to act as a safety net to help
ease some of the needs of these families. "It is sad to see families struggle," Lydia said. "But, it's great to
work with an awesome staff to provide support to our families in need."
" Fifteen students in Renton High School's GEAR UP Project will attend this year's Fred Hutchinson
Cancer Research Center's 'Hutch High' science symposium in early November. The Hutch High project
supports science education and promotes an interest in science and science -related careers. The goal of
the symposium is to give high school students exposure to scientists and to the cutting edge research
going on at Fred Hutchinson. The Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs
(GEAR UP) is a federally -funded program designed to increase the number of low-income students who
are prepared to enter and succeed in postsecondary education.
" Dimmitt Middle School parent Annie Hetzel is spearheading an effort to place a lighted reader board at
the school. No easy feat, as King County has an ordinance against such signs. When she learned of the
roadblock, Annie wrote a letter td King County Executive Ron Sims asking for a variance from the
ordinance. The district's maintenance department is reporting that Sims' office is giving consideration to
granting the request and allowing Dimmitt to install an electronic reader board.
" The Renton Rotary has honored their selections of Teacher of the Month for October. Each teacher
receives recognition by Rotary members and $100 to be used for supplies, classroom improvements or
instructional materials. The recipients are:
Damion Heintschel, a Language Arts teacher at Lindbergh High School. Damion earned his bachelor's
degree in Communication from Bowling Green State University in Ohio and taught in Ohio prior to coming
to Renton.
Darcy Gimmestad, an ECEAP teacher at Hillcrest Special Services. Darcy earned her associate's degree
at Highline Community College and worked as a preschool teacher for 13 years before coming to Renton.
Darcy's classroom is often selected as a model classroom by the Puget Sound Education Service District
to use in publications and on Web sites.
James Blundred, a PE specialist at Sierra Heights Elementary School. Jim earned his bachelor's degree
at Central Washington University and his master's degree at Lesley College in Cambridge,
Massachusetts.
