Subject: RE: Estimate from Cascade Ecology
Good Morning Sin,
Planting Installation Contract Approval: We have reviewed and approved the submitted Planting
Contract for your shoreline enhancement project, dated July 10, 2022. Any changes to the planting plan
would require the submittal of an as-built planting plan to the City. An as-built planting plan would be
subject to Current Planning Project Manager approval and the review of the final plan may require
changes to be made in field for plantings.
Surety Devices: This letter is also to confirm the surety amount due to the City:
Shoreline Enhancement Installation: $4,315.92
Please provide a surety device (a letter of credit or irrevocable set aside letter) for the installation of the
plantings for the amount of $4,315.92. The surety device for the installation will be released once
successful installation of the project has been confirmed.
Mitigation Installation and Approval: Once the plantings have been installed pursuant to the approved
plan, please have your biologist provide me with written verification that the installation and an as-built
plan (if changes were made) subject to approval by the Current Planning Project Manager.
Monitoring and Maintenance Surety Amount: In order to provide you with the amount of security
necessary for the maintenance and monitoring of the mitigation plantings, we will need a copy of the
signed maintenance and monitoring contract for this work. A draft (followed by a final) maintenance and
monitoring contract (or contracts) for our review prior to execution of the contract shall be provided. The
draft contract language must ensure compliance with both the performance standards of the Lake Study,
mitigation plan as well the maintenance and monitoring standards of the Renton Municipal Code. The
scope of the contract must clearly cover the cost of plant maintenance and replacement as well. The
language in the contract must also guarantee that "structures, improvements, and mitigation perform
satisfactorily for a period of 5 years" (e.g. add provisions for plant replacement and weed removal
referencing compliance with the survival rates noted in the final approved wetland mitigation plan. The
draft contract must be followed up with a final signed contract once the City approves the draft
version. Once the City approves the contract proposal, the applicant will need to provide a maintenance
surety device (a letter of credit or irrevocable set aside letter) set at an amount totaling 125% of the cost
to guarantee satisfactory performance for a minimum of five years.
Monitoring and Maintenance Period Start Date: Once the mitigation project has been installed, please
provide me with a written confirmation of installation pursuant to the final approved mitigation
plan. The date the City receives this written confirmation will constitute the beginning of the minimum
5-year maintenance and monitoring period.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
