CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
RESOLUTION NO. ________
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, AMENDING THE 2021 -
2022 CITY OF RENTON FEE SCHEDULE TO ADD BASE PENALTIES FOR INFRACTIONS.
WHEREAS, the Renton Municipal Code authorizes fees without establishing a specific
amount, the City Council specifies fee amounts within a consolidated fee schedule that is adopted
in conjunction with its biennial budget and thereafter amended from time to time; and
WHEREAS, on November 9, 2020, the City Council passed Resolution No. 4422, adopting
an amended fee schedule for 2021 and 2022; and
WHEREAS, the City of Renton Fee Schedule for 2021 and 2022 was subsequently
amended by Resolution No. 4433, Resolution No. 4441, Resolution No. 4453, and Resolution No.
4467, and Resolution 4473; and
WHEREAS, the Renton Municipal Code contemplates that infractions have base penalties
of up to $250 in accordance with RCW 7.80 RCW; and
WHEREAS, the actual penalties imposed for said infractions have been set lower than the
maximum amount, based upon schedules published for use by police officers to ensure
consistency in the amount charged to violators; and
WHEREAS, currently, penalties are listed within a computer system controlled by
Washington’s Administrative Office of the Court; and
WHEREAS, to provide greater public transparency as to the basis of the amount of
penalties charged for violations deemed to be infractions under the Renton Municipal Code, the
City Council has elected to add a penalty structure for infractions to the City of Renton Fee
AGENDA ITEM # 7. a)
RESOLUTION NO. _______
2
Schedule with base penalty amounts established consistent with applicable rules established by
the state supreme court and the amounts historically imposed by the City;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, DO
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. The City of Renton Fee Schedule is amended to add a new section (Section
XIV) governing base penalties for violations of the Renton Municipal Code that are deemed to be
infractions, as follows:
SECTION XIV. MONETARY PENALTY SCHEDULE FOR INFRACTIONS
ISSUED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF CHAPTER 7.80 RCW
2023 2024
1. Effect of Schedule. This schedule establishes default base penalties for violations of the
Renton Municipal Code that are issued as infractions under the authority of RCW 7.80
RCW, but these penalties do not include any state-imposed statutory assessments. Except
as otherwise prohibited by law or court rule, a court with jurisdiction over the infraction
may impose on a defendant a lesser penalty in an individual case. Provided that,
whenever the base penalty plus mandatory statutory assessments results in a total
payment that is not an even dollar amount, the base penalty is deemed to be amended to
a higher amount which produces the next greatest even dollar total.
2. Penalties Established by Court Rule or Specific Penalty Established by Law. This schedule
does not apply to penalties established by state or local court rule or to a penalty that is
established by law with a specific amount (i.e. ordinance or statute setting a penalty
equal to a specified amount rather than a penalty up to a maximum amount). To the
extent a penalty scheduled herein conflicts with a state or local court rule or a penalty
that is established in law, this schedule shall be deemed preempted by the court rule or
penalty established by law.
3. Penalty Schedule.
The following infractions shall carry the following listed default base penalty, not including
statutory assessments:

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
I - Executive Summary
This Six-Year Capital Facilities Plan has been prepared by the Kent School District as the
organization's capital facilities planning document, in compliance with the requirements of
Washington's Growth Management Act, King County Code K.C.C. 21A.43 and Cities of Kent,
Covington, Renton, Auburn, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and SeaTac. This annual Plan
update was prepared using data available in the spring of 2022 for the 2022-2023 school year.
This annual update of the Plan reflects no new major capital projects, a zero-dollar impact fee
rate due to declining enrollment and new capacity study.
This Plan is consistent with prior long-term capital facilities plans adopted by the Kent School
District. This Plan is not intended to be the sole planning document for all the district's needs.
The district may prepare interim and periodic Long-Range Capital Facilities Plans consistent
with Board Policies, considering a longer or shorter period, other factors and trends in the use
of facilities, and other needs of the district as may be required.
Prior Capital Facilities Plans of the Kent School District have been adopted by Metropolitan
King County Council and Cities of Kent, Covington, Auburn, and Renton and included in the
Capital Facilities Plan element of the Comprehensive Plans of each jurisdiction. This Plan has
also been submitted to the cities of Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and SeaTac for their
information and inclusion in their Comprehensive Plans.
In order for impact fees to be collected in the unincorporated areas of Kent School District,
the Metropolitan King County Council must adopt this Plan and a fee- implementing ordinance
for the District. For impact fees to be collected in the incorporated portions of the District, the
cities of Kent, Covington, Renton and Auburn must also adopt this Plan and their own school
impact fee ordinances.
This Capital Facilities Plan establishes a standard of service in order to ascertain current and
future capacity. While the State Superintendent of Public Instruction establishes square
footage guidelines for capacity, those guidelines do not account for local program needs in the
District. The Growth Management Act, King County and City codes and ordinances authorize
the District to make adjustments to the standard of service based on specific needs for
students of the District.
This Plan includes the standard of service as established by Kent School District. Program
capacity is based on an average capacity and updated to reflect changes to special programs
served in each building. Portables in the capacity calculation use the same standard of service
as the permanent facilities.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
The capacity of each school in the District is calculated based on the District’s standard of
service and the existing inventory of permanent facilities. The District's program capacity
of permanent facilities reflects program changes and the state’s mandated reduction of class
size to meet the standard of service for Kent School District. Portables provide additional
interim capacity.
Kent School District is the fifth largest (FTE basis) district in the state. Enrollment is
electronically reported monthly to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction
(“OSPI”) on Form P-223. Although funding apportionment is based on Annual Average Full Time
Equivalent (AAFTE), enrollment on October 1 is a widely recognized “snapshot in time” that is
used to report the District’s enrollment for the year as reported to OSPI.
The District's standard of service, enrollment history and projections, and use of interim
facilities are reviewed in detail in various sections of this Plan. The District plans to continue
to satisfy concurrency requirements through the interim use of portables.
This Plan currently represents projects in process funded primarily by the Kent School District’s
2016 Bond, as well as the 2018 Capital Construction Levy. Additional information about these
projects can be found on the district’s capital projects homepage (link). Additionally, project
updates sent to our community of stakeholders can be accessed on the KSD website (link).
Based on revised student generation rates, and district enrollment projects, the district has
updated the proposed student impact fee rate for the coming year. For a short overview, see
Section IX (Summary of Changes to the June 2021 Capital Facilities Plan).
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
II - Six - Year Enrollment Projection
For capital facilities planning, enrollment growth projections are based on cohort survival and
student yield from documented residential construction projected over the next six years (See
Table 2). For this Plan, the district relied substantially on the results from Dr. Les Kendrick’s
study of long-range enrollment forecasts for the Kent School District in the Winter of 2021.
King County live births and the District's relational percentage average were used to determine
the number of kindergartners entering the system (See Table 1). 8.26% of 25,273 King County
live births in 2017 is projected for 2,087 students expected in Kindergarten for October 1,
2022. This is a decrease of 738 live births in King County over the previous year (See Table 2).
Early Childhood Education students (also identified as “ECE”), “Early Childhood Special
Education (“ECSE”) students are forecast and reported to OSPI separately on Form P-223H for
Special Education Enrollment. Capacity is reserved to serve students in the ECE programs at
elementary schools.
In addition to live birth data, enrollment projections for October 1, 2022 going forward rely
upon the results of the enrollment study by Dr. Kendrick, utilizing the “medium growth”
methodology.
Within practical limits, the District has kept abreast of proposed developments. The District
will continue to track new development activity to determine impact to schools. Information
on new residential developments and the completion of these proposed developments in all
jurisdictions will be considered in the District's future analysis of growth projections.
The Kent School District serves eight permitting jurisdictions: unincorporated King County, the
cities of Kent, Covington, Renton, and Auburn and smaller portions of the cities of SeaTac,
Black Diamond, and Maple Valley.

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
STUDENT GENERATION FACTOR
"Student Factor" is defined by King County code as "the number derived by a school district to describe
how many students of each grade span are expected to be generated by a dwelling unit" based on
district records of average actual student generated rates for developments completed within the last
ten years.
Following these guidelines, the student generation rate for Kent School District is as follows:
Single Family Elementary .270
Middle School .105
Senior High .075
Total .450
Multi-Family
Elementary
.082
Middle School .035
Senior High .029
Total .146
The student generation factor is based on 2,967 SFD (Single Family Detached) units built between 2012
and 2022. There are 801 K-6 students geocoded to those homes. Therefore, the SFD student yield for
students in grades K thru 6 is 0.270, translating to 0.27 student for every new SFD unit built or 27
students for every 100. Apartments and Condos were calculated independently, then combined for
the Multi-Family attached student yields.
In preparing the 2021-2022 to 2026-2027 Capital Facilities Plan the District contracted with Davis
Demographics, a noted expert in demographic studies for school districts, to analyze and prepare the
student generation factor. EDC included both “garden” and “urban style” apartments in the calculation
for multi-family residences.
Within the district’s borders there are several income-based and multi-family housing projects
coming on-line in 2022/2023. Once developed with occupancy occurring the District does
recognize that the student generation for multi-family housing may impact future Capital
Facilities Plan updates.

Kent School District Six-Year Capital Facilities Plan Table 2 May 2022

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
III - Current Kent School District “Standard of Service"
In order to determine the capacity of facilities in a school district, King County Code
21A.06.1225 references a "standard of service" that each school district must establish in order
to ascertain its overall capacity. The standard of service identifies the program year, the class
size, the number of classrooms, students and programs of special need, and other factors
determined by the district which would best serve the student population.
This Plan includes the standard of service as established by Kent School District. The District
has identified schools with significant special needs programs as “impact” schools and the
standard of service targets a lower-class size at those facilities. Portables included in the
capacity calculation use the same standard of service as the permanent facilities.
The standard of service defined herein will continue to evolve in the future. Kent School
District is continuing a long-term strategic planning process combined with review of changes
to capacity and standard of service. This process will affect various aspects of the District's
standard of service and future changes will be reflected in future capital facilities plans.
Current Standards of Service for Elementary Students
• Class size ratio for grades K - 3 is planned for an average of 23 students per class, not
to exceed 26.
• Class size ratio for grades 4 - 6 is planned for an average of 27 students per class, not
to exceed 29.
Some special programs require specialized classroom space and the program capacity of some
of the buildings housing these programs is reduced. Some students, for example, leave their
regular classroom for a short period of time to receive instruction in special programs and
space must be allocated to serve these programs.
Students may also be provided music instruction and physical education in a separate
classroom or facility.
Some identified students will also be provided educational opportunities in classrooms for
special programs such as those designated as follows:
English Learners (EL)
Education for Disadvantaged Students (Title I) – Federal Program
Learning Assisted Programs (LAP) – State Program
Highly Capable Students – State Program
Reading, math or science Labs
Dual Language Programs in four elementary schools and one middle school
Inclusive Education Service for Elementary and Secondary students with disabilities may be
provided in a separate or self-contained classroom sometimes with a capacity of 10-15
students, depending on the program.
7
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
Current District Standards of Service for Secondary Students
The standards of service outlined below reflect only those programs and educational
opportunities provided to secondary students which directly affect the capacity of the school
buildings per the negotiated collective bargaining agreement with KEA.
• The average class size ratio for grades 7–8 is 30 students per class and 143 students
per day, with a maximum daily class load/enrollment of 150 based on five class periods
per day.
• The average class size ratio for grades 9-12 is 32 students per class and 153 students
per day, with a maximum daily class load/enrollment of 160 based on five class periods
per day.
Like Inclusive Education Programs listed above, many other secondary programs require
specialized classroom space which can reduce the functional capacity of the permanent school
buildings, such as technology labs, performing arts activities, a variety of career and technical
education programs, and other specialized programs.
Space or Classroom Utilization
As a result of scheduling conflicts for student programs, the need for specialized rooms for
certain programs, and the need for teachers to have a workspace during their planning periods,
it is not possible to achieve 100% utilization of regular teaching stations at secondary schools.
Based on the analysis of actual utilization of classrooms, the Kent School District has
determined that the standard utilization rate is 95% for secondary schools. Functional capacity
at elementary schools reflects 100% utilization at the elementary level.
8
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
IV - Inventory and Capacity of Existing Schools
Currently, the District has permanent functional capacity to house 39,946 students and interim
(portable) capacity to house 4,360. This capacity is based on the District's Standard of Service
as set forth in Section III. Included in this Plan is an inventory of the District's schools by type,
address and current capacity (See Table 3). The ratio between permanent capacity and portable
capacity is 89.1%-10.9%.
The functional capacity is periodically updated for changes in the programs, additional
classrooms, and new schools. Functional capacity has been updated in this Plan to reflect
program changes implemented in the Fall of 2021.
Calculation of Elementary, Middle School and Senior High School capacities are set forth in
Appendices A, B, and C. Maps of existing schools are included.
For clarification, the following is a brief description of some of the non-traditional programs
for students in Kent School District:
The 2021-2022 school year began with our newly branded Academy Program within the
district, housed at our new Kent Laboratory Academy. The project was approved by the Kent
Board of Directors in 2019 by utilizing funding from the 2016 Bond Project “20 Classrooms”.
The new facility has 24 classrooms and will now be utilized for many types of Academy related
programs. The previous facility of this program (Kent Phoenix Academy Campus) will have the
voter approved 2018 Levy Projects completed and has added to our current capacity for our
District at the secondary level in the future.
iGrad - Kent School District has developed the Individualized Graduation and Degree Program
or “iGrad”. iGrad is an Open Door (Drop-out Reengagement) School that offers a second plus
chance to students aged 16-21 who have dropped out of high school or are at risk of not
earning a high school diploma by age 21. iGrad is not included in this Capital Facilities Plan,
because it is served as a leased space at the Kent Hill Plaza Shopping Center. Over the past
three years, enrollment in the iGrad program has averaged over 300 students.

V - Six-Year Planning and Construction Plan
In November 2016, the voters of the Kent School District approved a bond measure for
$252 million. This new bonding authority provided for the replacement for Covington
Elementary school, which opened in August of 2018. The new River Ridge Elementary school
and our new Kent Laboratory Academy opened August 2021.
As a critical component of capital facilities planning, county and city planners and decision-
makers are encouraged to consider safe walking conditions for all students when reviewing
applications and design plans for new roads and developments. This should include sidewalks
for pedestrian safety to and from school and bus stops as well as bus pull-outs and turn-
arounds.
Included in this Plan is an inventory of potential projects and sites identified by the District which
are potentially acceptable site alternatives in the future (See Table 4 & Sitemap).
Voter approved bond issues have included funding for the purchase of sites for some of these
and future schools, and the sites acquired to date are included in this Plan. Some funding is
secured for purchase of additional sites, but some may be funded with impact fees as needed.
Not all undeveloped properties meet current school construction requirements, and some
property may be traded or sold to meet future facility needs.
The Board will continue an annual review of standards of service and those decisions will be
reflected in each update of the Capital Facilities Plan.
Our District is in the initial stages of a future Capital Measure which is aligned to Strategic Plan
and continues to make a priority to revitalize, rejuvenate and rebuild our aging schools as well
as begin a process to remove interim classroom portables and find room or create permanent
structures to reduce and eventually eliminate the more than 172 portable classrooms in our
district. We will continue to determine capacity versus enrollment as well as programs to
ensure this goal to reduce and or eliminate all portables in our district is obtained in the next
several years.
As a part of the planning process, the District has been tracking a few major development
projects which have affected enrollment and will continue to increase students' forecasts. On
Meeker Street in Kent we have seen several major apartment complexes, ETHOS and Midtown
64 Apartments. These continue to have an impact on enrollment as they fill up their newly
built facilities. Alexian Gateway Project is located on the corner of Military Road and Veterans
Drive in Kent and will start occupancy in school year 2023-2024, with 283 planned units.
In Covington, we are tracking a multi-family house development which has been approved and
construction has begun. The 1700-unit Lakepointe Urban Community will fall within our
enrollment boundary and proposed completion of Phase 4 is shown to be 2027.

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
Construction in the Kent School District boundaries have been steadily rising over the last
three years and planned communities are now being recognized through the planning teams
in multiple city and county jurisdictions we serve.

VI - Portable Classrooms
The Plan references use of portables as interim capacity for facilities.
Currently, the District utilizes portables to house students more than functional capacity and for
program purposes at some school locations (Please see Appendices A, B, C).
Based on enrollment projections, implementation of full day kindergarten programs, lower
state mandated class sizes, functional capacity, and no need for additional interim capacity,
the District anticipates no need to purchase or lease additional portables during the next six-
year period to ensure capacity requirement (Noted in section V. Six Yr. Planning Construction).
During the time period covered by this Plan, the District does not anticipate that all of the
District’s portables will be replaced by permanent facilities. During the useful life of some of
the portables, the school-age population may decline in some communities and increase in
others, and these portables provide the flexibility to accommodate the immediate needs of
the community.
Portables may be used as interim facilities:
1. To prevent overbuilding or overcrowding of permanent school facilities.
2. To cover the gap between the times of demand for increased capacity and
completion of permanent school facilities to meet that demand.
3. To meet unique program requirements.
Portables currently in the District’s inventory are continually evaluated resulting in some being
improved and some replaced or when possible, be removed due to life expectancy. The
Districts goal is to reduce and or eliminate all portables so we may provide an equitable
learning environment for all.
The Plan projects that the District will use portables to accommodate interim housing needs
for the next six years and beyond. The use of portables, their impacts on permanent facilities,
life cycle and operational costs, and the interrelationship between portables, emerging
technologies, and educational restructuring will continue to be examined.
19
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
VII - Projected Six-Year Classroom Capacity
As stated in Section IV, the functional capacity study is periodically updated for changes in
special programs and reflects class size requirements, class size fluctuations etc. As shown in
the Inventory and Capacity chart in Table 3, the functional capacity is also reflected in the
capacity and enrollment comparison charts (See Tables 5 & 5 a-b-c).
Enrollment is electronically reported to OSPI on Form P-223 on a monthly basis and funding
apportionment is based on Annual Average FTE (AAFTE). The first school day of October is
widely recognized as the enrollment “snapshot in time” to report enrollment for the year.
Kent School District continues to be the fifth largest district (both FTE and headcount basis) in
the state of Washington. The P-223 Headcount for October 2021 was 24,150 with kindergarten
students counted at 1.0 and excluding ECSE and college-only Running Start students.
In October 2021, there were an additional 1,397 students in 11th and 12th grade participating
in the Running Start program at different colleges and receiving credits toward both high school
and college graduation. Of these students, 517 attended classes only at the college (“college-
only”) and are excluded from FTE and headcount for capacity and enrollment comparisons.
Kent School District has one of the highest Running Start program participation rates in the
state.
Based on the enrollment forecasts, permanent facility inventory and capacity, current
standard of service, portable capacity, and future additional classroom space, the District plans
to continue to satisfy required capacity through the interim use of portables (See Table 5 and
Tables 5 a-b-c).
While the district currently shows available capacity to address projected need on a purely
statistical basis, there are variety of extenuating factors that need to be considered. First, the
district is currently undertaking a study to understand how much of our existing physical space
capacity is occupied by program needs, present and future. Our current capacity estimate is
an accurate depiction of total available space; however, we are aware that it potentially
overstates our ability to accommodate actual classroom growth. Our analysis of this program
use will not be complete until the completion of this year’s plan, but we expect actual available
classroom space to be significantly less. Secondly, the Kent School District currently makes
significant use of portables, which we do not consider as part of our permanent standard of
service. We have included portable space in our capacity figures, but long-term we do not
consider that a permanent space solution. Thirdly, Kent is unusual in that is incorporates
neighborhoods intersecting with at least 6 municipalities, including Kent, Auburn, Black
Diamond, Maple Valley, Renton, and SeaTac. The district covers 73 square miles and includes
over 40 schools. Within this large geographic area, we expect to have pockets of localized
capacity need that are not necessarily reflected in the aggregate figures. As one example, the

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
Lakepointe Urban Village development in Covington may require new classroom capacity even
as space may exist in schools on the far other end of the district’s boundaries. Finally, COVID-
19 has created significant enrollment loss in our community which we believe is temporary; a
status shared by most of our neighboring districts. The district is not discontinuing its plans to
accommodate for the return of those students, and future normal growth on top of that.

AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
VIII - Finance Plan
The finance plan shown on Table 6 demonstrates how the Kent School District plans to finance
improvements for the years 2021-2022 through 2027-2028. The financing components include
secured and unsecured funding and impact fees. The plan is based on future bond issues, state
school construction assistance, collection of impact fees under the State Growth Management
Act and voluntary mitigation fees paid pursuant to State Environmental Policy Act.
In November 2016, the District held a special election to approve the authorization of
$252,000,000 in bonding authority. The projects described below are part of this
authorization. The first series of bonds ($80 million) were issued in February 2017, which
funded the Covington Elementary Replacement School, as well as other infrastructure
projects. Impact fees were used at both River Ridge Elementary School and Kent Laboratory
Academy projects due to escalation in construction pricing across the Pacific Northwest.
According to RCW 82.02.090, the definition of an impact fee is ". . . a payment of money
imposed upon development as a condition of development approval to pay for public facilities
needed to serve new growth and development, and that is reasonably related to the new
development that creates additional demand and need for public facilities, that is a
proportionate share of the cost of the public facilities, and that is used for facilities that
reasonably benefit the new development. `Impact fee' does not include a reasonable permit
or application fee." Mitigation or impact fees can be calculated on the basis of "unhoused
student need" or "the maintenance of a district's level of service" as related to new residential
development.
A mitigation/impact fee may be imposed based upon a determination of insufficient existing
permanent and/or interim portable school space or to pay for permanent and/or newly
acquired interim portable school space previously constructed as a result of growth in the
district. A district's School Board must first approve the application of the mitigation or impact
fees and, in turn, approval must then be granted by the other general government jurisdictions
having responsibility within the district, counties, cities and towns. (Kent, Covington, Renton,
Auburn, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, and SeaTac)
Though the current enrollment projections increase for both elementary and secondary
schools are relatively flat, the ongoing need to provide permanent instructional facilities to
house students is a driving need as the shifts in our family populations continue, due to
ongoing development. Previously collected Impact fees may be used to support and address
the challenges related to the number of interim instructional facilities currently in use, the
replacement of some of these aged facilities, the maintenance of the district's level of services,
and the potential expansions to existing facilities in future years.
The Kent School District 2021-2022 CFP update includes continued execution of the 2016 Capital
Bond Projects and anticipation of the data collection and review of our Facility Assessment Reports
within the coming months. With the opening of our River Ridge Elementary School and the Kent
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
Laboratory Academy, we are advancing opportunities to add capacity for our programs and student-
based needs. The District Facilities and Capital Planning Teams have been preparing to complete an
initial plan (Spring 2022) as we move the next steps of creating a Capital Bond Planning Task Force
(CBPTF) – which will include District personnel, design professionals, teaching staff, student voice as
well as community members to being well collaborated discussions to this platform. Our initial plan
has revealed priorities including school replacement due to age, and the need for added permanent
facilities to (1) reduce and eliminate our need for portables and (2) accommodate future growth as
housing in the Kent region continues to expand. Once the CBPTF has it will be brought before the
District’s Board of Directors for comments, discussion, and approval. A Capital Bond Measure would
follow soon after approval. Future updates to this Capital Facilities Plan will include details of any
adopted planning.
For the Six-Year Finance Plan, costs of future schools are based on estimates from Kent School
District Capital Planning Team. Please see pages 13-14 for a summary of the cost basis.
Cost Basis Summary
For impact fee calculations, construction estimated costs are based on the last elementary
school built in Kent, adjusted for inflation, and projected cost future elementary school, as
well as average pricing of nearby school districts recently built new middle and new high
school projects.
Project
Projected Cost
New Elementary School
$68,000,000
New Middle School
$155,000,000
New High School
$220,000,000
Site Acquisition Cost
The site acquisition cost is based on an average cost of sites purchased or built on within the
last ten years. Please see Table 7 for a list of site acquisition costs and averages.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
District Adjustment
The impact fee calculations on Appendix B & C result in a zero-dollar impact fee total for this
year but may be adjusted if needed per RCW 36.70A.130(2)(b) provision.

IX - Summary of Changes to June 2021 Capital Facilities Plan
The Capital Facilities Plan (the "Plan") is updated annually based on previous Plans in effect
since 1993. The primary changes from the June 2021 Plan are summarized here.
Changes to capacity continue to reflect fluctuations in class size ratio as well as program
changes. Changes in portables or transitional capacity reflect use, lease or purchase, sale,
surplus and/or movement between facilities.
The district worked with contractor Davis Demographics, LLC to update student generation
factors. The updated rates are included in the body of the Plan.
The student headcount enrollment forecast is updated annually. All Elementary schools now
have Full Day Kindergarten so six-year Kindergarten projections were previously modified to
meet the requirements for Full Day Kindergarten programs at all elementary schools.
The district expects to receive some State Funding Assistance (formerly called “state matching
funds”) for projects in this Plan and tax credit factors are updated annually. Unfunded site and
facility needs will be reviewed in the future.
The impact fees for 2022 calendar year will result in a zero-dollar impact fee for both Single-
Family and Multi-Family due to reduced enrollment and the new capacity study completed
in 2021.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Six-Year Capital Facilities Plan (the "Plan") has been prepared by the Issaquah School District (the
“District”) as the District's primary facility planning document, in compliance with the requirements of
Washington's Growth Management Act and King County Council Code Title 21A. This Plan was
prepared using data available in April 2022.
This Plan is an update of prior long-term Capital Facilities Plans adopted by the Issaquah School
District. However, this Plan is not intended to be the sole Plan for all of the District's needs. The District
may prepare interim and periodic Long Range Capital Facilities Plans consistent with board policies,
taking into account a longer or a shorter time period, other factors and trends in the use of facilities, and
other needs of the District as may be required. Any such plan or plans will be consistent with this Six-
Year Capital Facilities Plan.
In June 1992, the District first submitted a request to King County to impose and to collect school impact
fees on new developments in unincorporated King County. On November 16, 1992, the King County
Council first adopted the District's Plan and a fee implementing ordinance. This Plan is the annual
update of the Six-Year Plan.
King County and the cities of Issaquah, Renton, Bellevue, Newcastle and Sammamish collect impact
fees on behalf of the District. Most of these jurisdictions provide exemptions from impact fees for senior
housing and certain low-income housing.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Growth Management Act, this Plan will be updated on an annual
basis, and any charges in the fee schedule(s) adjusted accordingly.

STANDARD OF SERVICE
School facility and student capacity needs are dictated by the types and amounts of space required to
accommodate the District’s adopted educational program. The educational program standards which
typically drive facility space needs include grade configuration, optimal facility size, class size,
educational program offerings, as well as classroom utilization and scheduling requirements and use of
re-locatable classroom facilities (portables).
Different class sizes are used depending on the grade level or programs offered such as special
education or the gifted program. With the passage of Initiative 728 in November 2000, the Issaquah
School Board established new class size standards for elementary grades K-5. The Board and District
Administration will continue to keep class sizes near the levels provided by I-728; this will be done via
local levy funds. There is also legislation that requires the State to fund Full-Day Kindergarten by 2018.
The District provided Full-Day Kindergarten beginning in the 2016-2017 school year. A class size
average of 20 for grades K-5 is now being used to calculate building capacities. A class size of 26 is
used for grades 6-8 and 28 for grades 9-12. Special Education class size is based on 12 students per
class. For the purpose of this analysis, rooms designated for special use, consistent with the provisions
of King County Council Code Title 21A, are not considered classrooms.
Invariably, some classrooms will have student loads greater in number than this average level of service
and some will be smaller. Program demands, state and federal requirements, collective bargaining
agreements, and available funding may also affect this level of service in the years to come. Due to
these variables, a utilization factor of 95% is used to adjust design capacities to what a building may
actually accommodate.
Portables used as classrooms are used to accommodate enrollment increases for interim purposes
until permanent classrooms are available. When permanent facilities become available, the portable(s)
is either moved to another school as an interim classroom or removed.
The King County decision to no longer allow schools to be built outside the Urban Growth Boundary
Line (UGBL) means District owned property planned for a new elementary school and middle school
could not be used for its long planned purpose. The District sold this planned site to a third party. The
District has acquired one high school site, two elementary school sites and one middle school site inside
the UGBL. The State does not provide funding for property purchases.
The 2016 Bond provided funding provides for a new high school, new middle school, two new
elementary schools, a rebuild/expansion of an existing middle school and additions to six existing
elementary schools. All of those projects are now complete with the exception of the new high school
and one new elementary school, which are both discussed further in this Capital Facilities Plan. The
District’s voters recently passed a capital levy that will add, in part, funding for the high school.
Additional funding for other projects may be pursued during the six year planning period.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)

TRIGGER OF CONSTRUCTION
The Issaquah School District Capital Facilities Plan proposes construction of a new high school and a
new elementary school to meet the needs of elementary, middle school and high school capacity needs.
The District recently completed construction of a new elementary school, Cedar Trails Elementary
School, a new middle school, Cougar Mountain Middle School, as well as additions at several
elementary schools to help address recent growth needs. The need for new schools and school
additions is triggered by comparing our enrollment forecasts with our permanent capacity figures.
These forecasts are by grade level and, to the extent possible, by geography. The analysis provides a
list of new construction needed by school year.
The decision on when to construct a new facility involves factors other than verified need. Funding is
the most serious consideration. Factors including the potential tax rate for our citizens, the availability
of state funds and impact fees, the ability to acquire land, and the ability to pass bond issues determine
when any new facility can be constructed. The planned facilities will be funded by a bond passed on
April 26, 2016, a capital levy passed on April 26, 2022, school impact fees, reserve funds held by the
District, and other potential future funding sources. New school facilities are a response to new housing
which the county or cities have approved for construction.
The District's Six-Year Finance Plan is shown in Appendix E.
DEVELOPMENT TRACKING
In order to increase the accuracy and validity of enrollment projections, a major emphasis has been
placed on the collection and tracking data of known new housing developments. This data provides
two useful pieces of planning information. First, it is used to determine the actual number of students
that are generated from a single family or multi-family residence. It also provides important information
on the impact new housing developments will have on existing facilities and/or the need for additional
facilities.
Developments that have been completed or are still selling houses are used to forecast the number of
students who will attend our schools from future developments. Generation rates for elementary school,
middle school and high school student per new single-family residence and new multi-family housing is
shown on page 10 and page 11.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)

NEED FOR IMPACT FEES AND GROWTH-RELATED CAPACITY NEEDS
The District relies on school impact fee revenue to help fund growth-related capacity needs. However,
by law, impact fees can only be used to fund a portion of a capacity project. State funding and impact
fees are also not reliable sources of revenue. As a result, the District must also rely on local funding to
fund school construction. On April 26, 2016 voters approved bond funding for the construction of a new
high school, a new middle school and two new elementary schools, the rebuild/expansion of an existing
middle school and additions to six existing elementary schools.
As demonstrated in Appendix A, (page 18) the District currently has a permanent capacity (at 95%) to
serve 8,763 students at the elementary level. This leaves the District’s elementary enrollment under
permanent capacity by 543 students (current enrollment is identified on page 9).
As demonstrated in Appendix B, (page 19) the District currently has a permanent capacity (at 95%) to
serve 4,946 students at the middle school level. This leaves the District’s middle school enrollment
under permanent capacity by 279 students (current enrollment is identified on page 9).
As demonstrated in Appendix C, (page 20) the District currently has a permanent capacity (at 95%) to
serve 4,921 students at the high school level. This leaves the District’s high school enrollment over
permanent capacity by 785 students (current enrollment is identified on page 9).
Based on the District’s student generation rates (Table Two and Three), the District expects that 0.558
students will be generated from each new single family home and 0.263 students will be generated from
each new multi-family dwelling unit.
Applying the enrollment projections contained on page 9 to the District’s existing permanent capacity
(Appendices A, B, and C) and if no capacity improvements are made by the year 2027-28, and
permanent capacity is adjusted to 95%, the District elementary population will be over its permanent
capacity by 262 students, over permanent capacity at the middle school level by 483 students, and over
permanent capacity by 992 students at the high school level. Importantly, the above figures incorporate
recently completed growth-projects at the elementary and middle school levels. The District’s
enrollment projections are developed using two methods: first, the cohort survival – historical enrollment
method is used to forecast enrollment growth based upon the progression of existing students in the
District; then, the enrollment projections are modified to include students anticipated from new
developments in the District.

The District recently opened the new Cougar Mountain Middle School, with permanent capacity of 787,
and the new Cougar Ridge Elementary School, with permanent capacity of 566 students. Both schools
were funded by the April 2016 bond and provide capacity to serve new growth.
Based upon the District’s capacity data and enrollment projections, as well as the student generation
data, the District has determined that a majority of its capacity improvements are necessary to serve
students generated by new development.
The school impact fee formula ensures that new development only pays for the cost of the facilities
necessitated by new development. The fee calculations examine the costs of housing the students
generated by each new single family dwelling unit or each new multi-family dwelling unit and then
reduces that amount by credits for the anticipated state match and future tax payments. The resulting
impact fee is then discounted as required by local ordinances. Thus, by applying the student generation
factor to the school project costs, the fee formula only calculates the costs of providing capacity to serve
each new dwelling unit. The formula does not require new development to contribute the costs of
providing capacity to address existing needs.
The King County Council and the City Councils of the Cities of Bellevue, Issaquah, Newcastle, Renton
and Sammamish have created a framework for collecting school impact fees and the District can
demonstrate that new developments will have an impact on the District. The impact fees will be used
in a manner consistent with RCW 82.02.050-110 and the adopted local ordinances. Engrossed Senate
Bill 5923, enacted in the 2015 Legislative Session, requires that developers be provided an option to
defer payment of impact fees to final inspection, certificate of occupancy, or closing, with no fees
deferred longer than 18 months from building permit issuance. The District adopts the positions
that: (1) no school impact fee should be collected later than the earlier of final inspection or 18 months
from the time of building permit issuance; and (2) no developer applicant should be permitted to defer
payment of school impact fees for more than 20 dwelling units in a single year. The District’s recent
and ongoing student growth, coupled with the need for the timely funding and construction of new
facilities to serve this growth, requires strict adherence to this position.

ENROLLMENT METHODOLOGY
Two basic techniques are used, with the results compared, to establish the most likely range of anticipated
student enrollment:
1. The student 3-2-1 cohort survival method. Examine Issaquah School District enrollments for the last
5 years and determine the average cohort survival for the consecutive five-year period. Because
cohort survival does not consider students generated from new development it is a conservative
projection of actual enrollment. For the same reason, these projections are also slow to react to
actual growth. The cohort method is also hampered by the fact that it does account for anomalies
affecting enrollment (for example, the Covid-19 pandemic, temporary remote learning and the
variations in the transition back to in-person learning).
2. Based on information from King County, realtors, developers, etc., the District seeks to establish the
number of new dwelling units that will be sold each year and converts those units to new students
based on the following:
a) The number of actual new students as a percentage of actual new dwellings for the past several
years. (The student generation factors are shown in Table Two and Table Three.)
b) Determine the actual distribution of new students by grade level for the past several years, i.e.,
5% to kindergarten, 10% to first grade, 2% to 11th grade, etc.
c) Based on an examination of the history shown by (a) and (b) above, establish the most likely
factor to apply to the projected new dwellings.
After determining the expected new students, the current actual student enrollments are moved forward from
year to year with the arrived at additions.
One of the challenges associated with all projection techniques is that, where new development is in the
pipeline, they tend to always show growth because the number of houses and the general population always
increases. Enrollments, however, can and do decrease even as the population increases. The reason is as
the population matures, the number of kindergartners will go down as the number of 10th graders is still
increasing. To adjust for this factor, the number of school age children per dwelling is examined. When this
number exceeds expectations, it is probably because the District is still assuming kindergarten growth, while
the main growth is actually moving into middle school. When this happens, a reduction factor is added to
kindergarten to force it to decrease even though the general population continues to grow. A precise
statistical formula has not been developed to make this adjustment.
After all of the projections have been made and examined, the most likely range is selected. An examination
of past projections compared with actual enrollment indicates the cohorts tend to be more accurate over a
ten-year time span while dwelling units tend to be more accurate over a shorter period. The probable reason
is that over a ten-year period, the projections tend to average out even though there are major shifts both up
and down within the period.
The Covid-19 pandemic has complicated projections in recent years. In the last CFP, the District was
anticipating the return to in-person learning and attempting to estimate the number of returning
students. More reliable data and experience is available for this year’s enrollment projections. Like
other districts, the District is also experiencing fewer students at the high school level enrolling in
Running Start options and instead choosing to be fully enrolled in the District 9-12 program.
Enrollment projections for the years 2022-2023 through 2036-2037 are shown in Table One. These
projections are conservative in the near-term (within a 5 year period). The District assumes that a post-
pandemic increase in enrollment will occur, but does not believe our historical peak enrollment will be
exceeded for approximately 7 years. The District however, could have a large uptick in enrollment depending
upon land use decisions, housing and labor market, etc. The District will monitor these matters and include
updated information in future updates to the Capital Facilities Plan.

INVENTORY AND EVALUATION OF CURRENT FACILITIES
Currently, using the 95% utilization factor, the District has the capacity to house 18,630 students in
permanent facilities and 4,290 students in portables. While portables are critical for interim capacity
needs, they are not desirable nor long-term capacity solutions. The District looks to its permanent
capacity, as adjusted for utilization, for purposes of determining growth-related needs and addressing
school capacity. The projected student enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year is expected to be
18,534 which leaves a permanent capacity overage of 96. Enrollment projections indicate continuing
permanent capacity needs at the elementary and high school levels.
Calculations of elementary, middle school and high school capacities are shown in Appendices A, B
and C. Totals are shown in Appendix D.

THE ISSAQUAH SCHOOL DISTRICT'S
SIX-YEAR CONSTRUCTION PLAN
The District's Six-Year Finance Plan is shown in Appendix E. Shown in Table Four is the District's
projected capacity to house students, which reflects the additional facilities as noted. Voters passed a
$533 million bond in April 2016 to fund the purchase of land for and construction of a new high school,
a new middle school, two new elementary schools, the rebuild/expansion of an existing middle school
and additions to six existing elementary schools. The voters also funded an April 2022 capital levy to
provide additional funding for the high school project as well as other projects. The District does
anticipate receiving State matching funds for High School #4 project that would reduce future bond sale
amounts or be applied to new K-12 construction projects included in this Plan.
The District also anticipates that it will receive $500,000 in impact fees and mitigation payments that
will be applied to capital projects.
The District projects 18,534 FTE students for the 2022-2023 school year and 19,400 FTE students in
the 2027-2028 school year. Growth will be accommodated by the planned facilities. Per the formula in
the adopted school impact fee ordinance, half of the unfunded growth-related need is assigned to impact
fees and half is the local share.

2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
I.INTRODUCTION
Purpose of the Capital Facilities Plan:
This Six-Year Capital Facilities Plan (the “Plan”) was prepared by Renton School District (the
“District”) in compliance with the requirements of the Washington State Growth Management
Act (GMA, the Act), King County Code Title 21A.43, and applicable ordinances of the cities of
Bellevue, Newcastle and Renton. It is the district’s intent that the Plan be adopted by King
County and the cities of Bellevue, Newcastle, and Renton as a sub-element of their respective
Capital Facilities Plans, and that that those jurisdictions assess and collect school impact fees on
behalf of the district, as empowered by the GMA. This Plan, however, is not intended to be the
sole planning instrument developed by the district to determine its capital facility needs.
The GMA was adopted by the State legislature in 1990 in response to rapidly increasing
development, most notably in King County and the surrounding central Puget Sound area. The
Act requires state and local governments to manage Washington’s growth by developing and
implementing comprehensive land-use and transportation plans, by designating Urban Growth
Areas, and by protecting natural resources and environmentally critical areas.
The Capital Facilities Plan is one element of a County or City’s Comprehensive Plan that
addresses existing public facility capacities, forecasts future public facility needs, presents a plan
for expanding existing facilities or constructing new facilities to meet those needs, and indicates
how those public facility improvements are to be financed. The GMA empowers jurisdictions to
assess and collect impact fees as one means of financing new public facilities necessitated by
private development.
This Capital Facilities Plan addresses the impact of growth on public school facilities by
examining:
1. anticipated growth of the district’s student population over the next six years.
2. the ability of existing and proposed classroom facilities to adequately house those
students based on the district’s current Standard of Service.
3.the need for additional enrollment or growth driven capital facilities.
4. the method of financing those capital improvements; and
5. calculation of school impact fees based on, among other variables, the number of students
generated by recent residential development (student generation factors).
This plan is updated annually and submitted to local governments for inclusion as a sub-element
in their Capital Facilities Plans. Past Plans have been adopted by King County and the Cities of
Bellevue, Newcastle, and Renton. The district continues to dialogue with the cities of Tukwila
and SeaTac regarding implementation of impact fees within their jurisdictions.

2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
Overview of the Renton School District:
The district is located on the south end of Lake Washington, 11 miles south of Seattle to the west
and south of Bellevue to the east. Home to nearly 100,000 people who value working, living,
and playing in the Pacific Northwest, Renton has a strong economic base and a favorable
business climate. The district spans approximately 32 square miles and serves a diverse
population of approximately 15,000 students in pre-K through 12th grade at 4 high schools, 4
middle schools, 15 elementary schools, and an early childhood learning center.
District programs also address the special needs of disabled, academically gifted, and artistically
talented students. Four schools (Renton Park Elementary, Hazelwood Elementary, McKnight
Middle, and Lindbergh High) are U.S. Department of Education-recognized Blue-Ribbon
Schools of Excellence. Community support for Renton schools is strong. School levies, which
make up 25% of the district's budget, have been consistently approved by the community for
more than 20 years. Voter-approved bond measures or capital facilities levies from 1992 through
2019 have brought exciting improvements in school buildings and support facilities, including
the rebuilding of all elementary schools, the remodeling of all middle and high schools, and the
recent additional construction of a new elementary school (Sartori) and middle school (Risdon).
Voter support has also provided state-of-the-art technology - a must to prepare students for living
and working in this leading high-tech region. Every classroom has high-speed Internet
connections and ample computer devices for all students.
Creating life-long learners is at the heart of Renton School District's instructional goals. Students
are encouraged to reach for excellence through a variety of programs that focus on basic
academic skills, problem solving, creative and critical thinking, and social and emotional growth.
Each year, Renton School District students qualify as National Merit Finalists while the total
value of college scholarships earned is in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Elementary level
students are well-grounded in science through participation in the Hands-on Science Kit
Program, lauded by the National Science Teachers' Association. At the high school level, the
district's challenging chemistry program, which provides options for advanced placement college
credit, has been recognized by the National Science Association, as well as the National Science
Foundation. The focus in math is on intensive instruction in the basic skills, supplemented by
opportunities to apply developing knowledge to real world problems. The K-12 math program
increases student achievement through problem solving, integration of technology, and a
rigorous assessment component. Students from elementary to high school levels regularly excel
in regional and national mathematics contests. Across all levels and subjects, reading with
accuracy and understanding is a primary goal. Elementary students receive a rich exposure to
fine literature. Middle and high school students work extensively on reading in the content areas
and exploring classic and modern literature works. Reading activities are integrated with a
topnotch writing program beginning in kindergarten that provides students with intensive and
focused practice for the mastery of a wide range of language arts skills from creative to business
and technical writing.

A variety of classes, clubs, and programs give students opportunities to expand their educational
horizons and pursue special interests. Choices range from instrumental and music, performing
and visual arts, intramurals and athletics, academic-focused and career clubs, and community
service opportunities to leadership development programs, business internships, job shadowing,
and participation in the annual robotics competition. Special needs students with physical,
emotional, and academic disabilities receive individualized attention from skilled teachers.
Special education and remedial support are also available and children who are just learning
English receive intensive, small-group ESL instruction to supplement their regular classroom
learning. Guidance and counseling services are available for primary, middle, and high school
students. Intellectually gifted children have many opportunities for extended learning. Operating
at two magnet elementary schools and the three middle schools, the Discovery Program offers a
challenging curriculum with a special focus on higher level thinking skills. High school students
can take advantage of a full range of honors and advanced placement classes.
Renton School District staff consistently show a commitment to their most important task -
preparing their students for success in work and life. More than 80 percent of certificated staff
have five or more years of higher education, and two of every three teachers have advanced
degrees in their fields. Several of the district's certificated and classified staff have received the
Washington Award for Educational Excellence. Individual teachers have received special honors
such as the Christa McAuliffe Award for Excellence in Education, the Outstanding Secondary
Science Award, the Washington State High School Social Studies Teacher of the Year Award,
and Outstanding College Alumni recognition. Teachers are encouraged to take an active role in
promoting their own professional growth through creating and refining curriculum, sharing
successful strategies, and looking for new ways to assess student progress. This focus on
continuous staff development enables teachers to consistently improve the quality of instruction
and prepares them to help students meet rigorous state academic standards. Hundreds of training
opportunities are offered to teachers and other staff members each year, ranging from CPR and
first aid, technology education, diversity, and crisis intervention to math, science, and reading
instruction strategies, assessment techniques, and arts education.
II. ENROLLMENT TRENDS
Over the past year, District enrollment continued to decline. There were differences across the
region, however. Enrollment declined by over 4300 students in King County, but it grew in
three other surrounding counties. Renton’s decline in enrollment may likely be due to the
pandemic and a lower growth rate of immigrant population. Home based instruction also
increased in Renton and the surrounding areas.
The district will continue to monitor trends, but there are also significant conditions that may
speak to the potential for enrollment growth in the future. The number of new housing units
expected to be developed in the district boundary is larger than what has been experienced in the
last decade. Additionally, the most recent economic factors increasing interest rates and inflation
appear to be causing a reduction in housing prices, at least in the immediate term. This could
drive an influx of new home buyers and new construction in the next few years.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
Discussion on whether enrollment will return to pre-pandemic levels will likely continue over
the next couple of years with future CFP’s. The early learning model in most cases had been
through remote delivery methods and returned to partial in-person learning in 2020-2021. The
district returned to in-person learning this last school year, with families having an option for a
virtual program – but that was not highly utilized. Still, the District won’t fully understand the
ongoing impact of instructional delivery, the current housing market, fuel increases, among
others until further into the next couple of school years.
Approval by the community of a 2019 bond measure allowed the district to construct a new
elementary school (#16) to accommodate over-enrollment in the K-5 grade span and to provide
some elementary capacity relief. Sartori, another new elementary was opened in 2019 as a choice
school in the downtown area. Considering the decline in enrollment and the effect of the
pandemic, the district chose to supplement the 2020 CFP by further evaluating the enrollment
and capacity of the elementary schools located within or near the service areas the new
elementary school #16. The conclusion of that analysis reaffirmed the district need for the new
elementary school. #16. The new elementary school is scheduled to open in fall of 2023 and is
discussed later in this Plan.
III. STANDARD OF SERVICE & CAPACITY
The Renton School District Standard of Service is the standard adopted by the district that
identifies the program year, school organizational structure, student/teacher ratios by grade level
(considering the requirements of students with special needs), daily class schedule, types of
facilities and other factors identified by the district to be beneficial in supporting its educational
programs and objectives. The Standard of Service is the major determining factor, together with
the number of classrooms (teaching stations), in calculating facility capacity.
The district has adopted a traditional elementary/middle/high school organizational structure that
houses kindergarten through Grade 5 in elementary schools, Grades 6 through 8 in middle
schools, and Grades 9 through 12 in high schools. The school-year calendar adopted by the
District is also traditional; typically beginning in late August and ending in mid-June. Similarly,
the District maintains a common daily schedule, with classes beginning between 7:20 and 9:30
a.m. and ending between 2:03 and 3:10 p.m., depending on grade level.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
The district, and the Renton Education Association, recognize that reasonable class size is
necessary for optimum learning, and have established the following targets in student/teacher
ratios:
Grade Levels K-1 21:1
Grade Level 2 22:1
Grade Level 3 24:1
Grade Levels 4-12 29:1
The 29:1 ratio at the secondary level applies to all Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Math,
World Languages, World Language Exploratory and Health classes. Other ratios apply as
follows:
Band/Orchestra 40:1
Choir 50:1
Middle School PE 35:1
High School PE 40:1
All other classes 31:1
For the purposes of this report, student /teacher ratio for special education classes held in self-
contained classrooms within comprehensive elementary and secondary facilities is assumed to be
12:1. Educational facilities dedicated solely to special education or other specialized programs
are excluded from capacity calculations, as are associated student headcounts.
In response to new State and District high school graduation requirements, beginning with the
2018-2019 school year, all District high schools changed from a semester system to a trimester
system, resulting in the following:
• Three 12-week terms instead of two 18-week terms,
• Five 72-minute periods per day instead of six 57-minute periods, and
• Reduction of classroom efficiency from 83% to 80%, reducing facility capacity.
Beginning with the graduating class of 2020-2021, high school graduation requirements require
one additional credit of science (three instead of two), and a total of 24 credits; three more than
the previously required 21. This will impact high school capacity, especially regarding science
classrooms, where additional classroom space suitable for the various sciences, or the
renovation/upgrade of existing classrooms to accommodate the same, will be necessary. The
construction of new science classroom addition at Lindbergh High is one such project included
in last year’s update, although it is not addressed in the calculation of this year’s impact fees or
previous year’s impact fees.
Student/teacher ratios, referenced earlier, are applicable to both permanent and relocatable
classrooms. However, since relocatable facilities do not generally allow for the full range of
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
educational activities promoted by the district, they are generally viewed as temporary or interim
housing, necessary to accommodate enrollment fluctuations and development driven enrollment
increases, but only until such time as permanent facilities can be financed and constructed. For
those reasons, relocatable classrooms capacities are calculated, but not used in the analysis of
future facility needs.
Practical Capacity Model:
The Practical Capacity Model calculates building capacity based on limitations that existing
facilities place on enrollment as a result of current educational program needs, operating policy
and contractual restrictions.
The calculation is made by reviewing the use of each classroom/teaching station in each facility.
For every room housing students, a calculation is made, assigning a maximum number of
students per room. Sometimes the capacity of core facilities, such as the cafeteria or gym, or the
quantity of restroom fixtures, may limit facility capacity to a level below that calculated by
collective classroom capacity levels.
Capacity at the secondary school level is further limited by class scheduling restrictions and
student distribution among elective classes. Based on a typical middle school six-period day,
where one period is designated for teacher planning, capacity is reduced by one-sixth, or 17
percent, of theoretical capacity. Similarly, at high schools, with the newly established five-
period day, capacity is reduced by one-fifth, or 20 percent. Elective classes, many of which
require specialized classrooms, also figure into the equation for determining a school’s capacity,
which together with required classes, require a well thought out Master Schedule if the facility’s
capacity is to be maximized.
Current Capacity:
Student capacity of existing, permanent K-12 facilities, excluding special education facilities and
facilities housing alternative learning environments, is 14,788.
Based on current enrollment (October 2021 headcount), the district is showing a capacity deficit
in the 6-8 grade span next year and in the out years; as well as a continued, yet smaller deficit in
the K-5 grade span. That deficit will transition to a surplus when the new elementary school
opens in fall of 2023. This will also allow for a boundary shift to relieve some of the over-
crowded schools. It should be noted, however, that current and future capacity at the elementary
level, as documented in this report, is based on the district’s current Standard of Service, and
does not necessarily reflect aspirational K-3 student/teacher ratios of 17 students to one teacher.
The district continues to make progress towards these requirements, by utilizing available
classroom space, added staffing and plans to utilize the new elementary school classrooms to
work towards this ratio. Most recent ratios have been anywhere from 17.3 to 19:1 but staffing
during covid has slowed the districts progress. Continued efforts will be made with opening of
the new elementary school providing more classroom space to progress towards the K-3 standard
of 17:1.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
Elementary school capacity remains the district’s greatest challenge. Relying heavily on the use
of relocatable classrooms (portables) to accommodate the fluctuating student population,
portables at elementary schools account for over 15% of the district’s total
K – 5 facility capacity. Portables are not considered permanent structures and are therefore not
included in the inventory of permanent facilities. They are viewed as a short-term solution for
managing enrollment fluctuation, housing students on a temporary or interim basis until
permanent facilities can be constructed.
Renton School District’s capital facilities include both permanent structures and relocatable
(interim or portable) classrooms. Permanent facilities are further categorized as either K-12
(traditional elementary, middle, and high school configurations), Special Instructional Use, or
Non-instructional Support Facilities. The district maintains a total of 32 permanent and 55
relocatable facilities serving a total student population of 14,595 (October 2021 headcount).
The district’s permanent K-12 facilities include 15 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 4
high schools. Two Special Instructional Use facilities house the district’s early childhood,
special education, and alternative learning programs. Support facilities include the Kohlwes
Education Center (admin.), Transportation Center, Facilities Operations and Maintenance
Center, Nutrition Services/Warehouse, Renton Memorial Stadium, and the Lindbergh Swimming
Pool. Total permanent facilities encompass 2,595,263 square feet, with 2,417,847 square feet
(93%) devoted to K-12 and instructional special use. See Appendix A for District Maps.
The district’s relocatable K-12 facilities are used primarily to address enrollment fluctuations and
to house students on an interim or temporary basis until permanent facilities can be constructed.
For those reasons they are not considered a long-term solution for housing students and are not
acknowledged in the calculation of the capacity of K-12 facilities. Of the 55 relocatable facilities
in the district’s inventory, 44 are “double portables” containing two classrooms, and 11 are
singles. Combined, they provide the district with a total of 99 relocatable classrooms,
encompassing 88,704 square feet of additional space available for instruction.

IV. ENROLLMENT PROJECTIONS
Projection Methodology
Numerous methodologies are available for projecting long-term enrollments. The most common
method is known as cohort survival which tracks groups of students through the system and
adjusts the populations to account for the average year-to- year growth. For example, this year’s
fourth grade is adjusted based on the average enrollment trend of the past in order to estimate
next year’s fifth grade enrollment. This calculation method considers the past five years’ trends
to determine the average adjustment factor for each grade, or cohort. The method works well for
all grades except kindergarten, where there is no previous year data. For kindergarten, two
methodologies are generally used: A linear extrapolation from the previous five years of
kindergarten enrollment, assuming that there is a trend; or, alternatively, a comparison of the
kindergarten enrollment to births from five years prior can be used to calculate a “birth-to-k”
ratio. For example, kindergarten enrollment in 2019 is divided by the total births in King County
in 2014 to produce a birth-to-k ratio. The average ratio for the last five years can then be applied
to births in subsequent years to estimate kindergarten enrollment.
The cohort survival method has been used by OSPI to predict enrollment for all Districts in the
state. In past years, OSPI has used a 6-year cohort average for grades 1-12 and a linear
extrapolation method at kindergarten. In 2008, OSPI commissioned a study to evaluate the
effectiveness of this method for predicting enrollment. The report recommended the use of the
“birth-to-k” method for predicting kindergarten enrollment and the use of a housing adjustment
factor for Districts that are likely to be impacted by large numbers of new housing developments.
The cohort survival method generally works well for Districts that have a consistent trend of
gradual increases or declines in enrollment. It is less reliable in Districts where spikes in
demographic trends (especially a marked increase or decrease in new housing) can lead to
dramatic swings in enrollment from one year to the next. In addition, the use of the linear
extrapolation method at the kindergarten level can result in a distorted trend since it does not

consider changes in birth rate trends. Combining cohort survival with other information about
births, housing, regional population trends, and even trends in service area and private school
enrollment can sometimes provide for a more accurate forecast. For this Plan, the average rollup
at existing grades was combined with estimates of growth that might be expected from new
housing, and assumptions about market share gains or losses that the district is likely to see at
certain grade levels. Estimates of housing growth for this model were obtained from building
permit information provided by the respective jurisdictions. However, there are many unknowns
due to the overall market pause in real estate, rising gas prices, inflation, and some still consider
the pandemic to be of concern. The districts response to this was to consider three projections: a
low, medium, and high. Due to inflation and rising interest rates, real estate prices are leveling
off and decreasing in some neighborhoods. Considering the relative prices seen in Renton as
compared to outlying and more expensive suburban area, this could drive a higher-than-expected
growth rate. Regardless, the overall enrollment is predicted to grow between .5% and 2% each
year in both the medium and the high projection. The lower and more conservative enrollment
projection is more level or a (.3%) to a (1.6%) each year. Because the District needs to be as
prepared as possible for a higher growth rate, we ware monitoring all three scenarios. There is
more potential for growth in the K-5 and high school grade span in the outyears and some
decline is anticipated in the 6-8 grade span.
Projections and Future Capacity:
Enrollment projections provided by Educational Data Solutions, LLC indicate some growth in
the elementary grade span over the next six years, with a minor decrease in middle school and
high school enrollment. Using the high level of growth chart, overall enrollment is projected to
grow by 791 students, or 15,386 students - returning enrollment to pre-pandemic levels with
growth. The elementary grade span is projected to increase by 389 students, middle school is
projected to drop enrollment by 62 students and the high school grade span projects a growth of
465 students. While this enrollment projection begins to return the district to pre-pandemic
levels and reflects projections that consider a higher rate of growth, it still reflects annual growth
between (.2%) a year to 2.1% annual growth, which is relatively consistent with actual
enrollment growth over the past decade. Because of the more recent factors in housing prices
coming down, planned development within the district, and the expectation that King County
population will continue to grow, the district is using the higher enrollment projection for
permanent facility capacity planning.
As the District moves past the pandemic and related impacts, there is potential for development
growth in the real estate market and for a resurgence of immigrant population with recent
political administration changes at the national level. The local jurisdiction is planning on over
5,000 new residential units in various areas over the next 2-10 years. It is the district’s
responsibility to monitor these projects, the timing and how the district will be able to respond
with appropriate capacity to accommodate instructional delivery.
Acknowledging the opening of the new Sartori Elementary School in 2018 and factoring in the
projections in elementary school enrollment over the next six years, current capacity will still be
insufficient to accommodate all K-5 students. With the passage of the 2019 RSD bond measure,
the district is moving forward with construction of an additional elementary school, which, upon
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
completion, will allow permanent capacity to surpass enrollment for the first time in nearly two
decades. The district’s sixteenth elementary school is scheduled to open in the fall of 2023.
Boundary planning and adjustments are underway.
Projections show a slight drop in middle school enrollment over the next six years and there are
currently no plans to increase middle school capacity. At the high school level, projected
enrollment over the next six years will add an additional 465 students. With a current surplus
capacity of 195, this enrollment increase will result in a deficit of 65 by the school year 2023 –
2024. That deficit will be mitigated in part, by the construction of new science classrooms, and
the renovation of existing science classrooms, at Lindbergh and Renton High School. There are
no additional plans to increase overall high school capacity, but discussions are underway
regarding long-term plans for Renton High School.

V. ENROLLMENT DRIVEN FACILITY NEEDS
With the opening of the new Sartori Elementary School in August 2018, the 2017 elementary
deficit capacity of 1,244 was dramatically reduced by nearly 40% to 755. With the passage of the
2019 Bond Measure, approved by the voters in November 2019, the District is proceeding with
the construction of its sixteenth elementary school, located in the Hazen High School service
area, where the district has experienced the most recent growth in the past decade plus. The new
school is scheduled to be completed and opened for the 2023-24 school year.
At the middle school level, enrollment projections indicate that, due to decreased enrollment, the
current deficit of 77 unhoused students will become a surplus of 106 by the 2023-24 school year.
There are currently no enrollment or growth driven capital facilities projects in the planning
stages for middle schools.
At the high school level, the district continues showing a decreasing surplus capacity until the
2022/2023 school year, when enrollment is projected to overtake capacity, resulting in a deficit
of 65. The capacity deficit continues through the 2027/2028 school year. Although the need for
additional facilities based on enrollment growth has not been a recent priority, changes in
graduation requirements have created the need for additional science classrooms and
laboratories. Changed requirements include an increase from 21 to 24 credits, and one addition
credit of Science. As part of the recently passed 2019 Bond Measure, the District will be
constructing additional science classrooms at Lindbergh High School and renovating/upgrading
existing science classrooms at all three comprehensive high schools. The district anticipates
some added capacity from this effort. Additionally, the district may be considering future bond
efforts to upgrade or replace Renton High School. This will be both an opportunity to add
needed capacity to address anticipated and projected growth as well as provide educational space
more comparable to what is offered at both Hazen and Lindberg High Schools.
In addition to these current and/or future projected permanent facility deficits at the elementary
and high school levels, it should be noted that the District is also reaching its maximum limit in
providing portable classrooms at its existing sites, due to current land use and building code
requirements. Although not included in the calculation of Impact Fees, the implementation of
new relocatable classrooms and/or the relocation of existing ones, remains a viable method of
addressing both growth and the shifting of student population, for the short term.
Similarly, science classroom additions proposed for Lindbergh High School, as well as other
potential high school renovations, additions, or relocations responding to enrollment growth
and/or changes in capacity methodology, are not included in the calculation of these fees.
Table 8 compares the current permanent capacity of Renton School District facilities to current
and projected enrollment for the next six years.
AGENDA ITEM # 7. b)
2022 Capital Facilities Plan Renton School District No. 403
Capital Construction Plan:
For the next six-year period, the district’s highest priorities will be addressing existing and
projected facility capacity deficits, aging infrastructure at secondary schools, and planning for
both growth and program related added capacity. This includes:
• Construction of a new elementary school within the Hazen High School service area,
where most of the growth has and continues to occur, and relief is needed at the
elementary grade-span.
• High school additions and/or renovations to create additional science
classroom/laboratory space to address changes in State graduation requirements
• Planning for renovation or replacement of Renton High School, Dimmitt Middle School
and/or Nelson Middle School – all aging facilities and also impacted by growth
• Acquisition of land for future development
• Addition and or relocation of relocatable classrooms (interim classroom space known as
portables)
Other high priority capital improvements will fall into one or more of the following major
categories; Safety and Security, Energy Conservation, Site Improvements, and Building
Upgrades. Improvements will occur district-wide, affecting nearly all District facilities,
achieving and maintaining the level of service necessary to provide safe, healthy, and nurturing
learning environments for all students. These improvements are not necessarily enrollment
related. Many of these projects will be funded by the 2019 Bond Measure passed in November
2019.

VI. SIX-YEAR FINANCE PLAN
Finance Plan:
The primary funding sources for all capital construction projects scheduled over the next six
years include 2019 Bond funds, remaining funds from the 2016 capital levy; and school impact
fees currently being collected by King County and the cities of Bellevue, Newcastle and Renton.
Expenditures for enrollment driven projects over the next six years are estimated at $800 million,
of which 99% is secured by the 2019 Bond Measure approved by the voters in November 2019,
and previously collected impact fees.
Impact Fees:
Impact fees were calculated in conformance with King County Council Ordinance 11621,
resulting in a slight increase of $252 per unit for single-family fees – now set at $2,911.00, and
an increase in multi-family fees of $310 per unit – now set at $5,047.00 The primary variables
contributing to these increases are due to a notable increase in construction costs. Student
Generation Factors were re-utilized from 20201 calculations - anticipating not much changes in
the last year due to market conditions and the pandemic. New rates will be calculated in 2022
for the next capital facilities plan. Housing assessed values went up dramatically, but we
continue to experience low bond rates.
A comparison of current and last year’s fees is shown below.
Enrollment driven capital improvements projects identified in this Plan will be funded by the
2019 Capital Bond funds, and school impact fees assessed and collected by King County and the
cities of Bellevue, Newcastle and Renton. The District does not appear to be eligible for any
funding through the OSPI School Construction Assistance Program (SCAP) at this point in time,
based on the construction projects included in this update.
The District’s intent in structuring its capital improvement programs is to maintain a constant
level of construction throughout the program period in order to optimize the utilization of its
management capabilities. The District utilizes a combination of in-house project management
(Capital Projects Office) and outside management consultants to accomplish this.
IMPACT FEES 2020/21 2021/22 CHANGE

VII. IMPACT FEES
The GMA empowers jurisdictions to assess and collect impact fees as a means of
supplementing the funding of additional public facilities necessitated by enrollment growth
from new development. In the case of public schools, impact fees are assessed only on
residential new development. To determine an equitable school impact fee throughout
unincorporated King County, King County Code 21A was adopted, establishing an impact
fee formula that has in turn been adopted by the cities of Bellevue, Newcastle and Renton,
in their respective enabling ordinances. The formula requires that school districts establish
“Student Generation Factors” that estimate the number of students generated by each new
single or multi-family residential unit constructed and establish district-specific
construction costs that are unique to that district. Refer to Appendix D for substantiating
documentation on Student Generation Factors.
Other factors influencing impact fees include:
Site Acquisition Costs - the estimated cost per acre to purchase property.
Building Acquisition Cost - the estimated cost to construct facilities unique to the
district.
Temporary Facility Cost - the estimated cost per classroom to purchase and install a
relocatable classroom, including site work and utilities.
State Funding Assistance Credit - the amount of funding provided by the State, subject
to District eligibility, based on a construction cost allocation and funding assistance
percentage established by the State.
Tax Credit – Driven by assessed property values, taxation rate, and Bond interest rates.
Based on the Growth Management Act and King County Code 21A, impact fees for the
plan year 2022 are:
Single-Family Units $2911
Multi-Family Units $3697

STUDENT GENERATION FACTORS
The formula for determining school impact fees, as established by King County Council
Ordinance 11621, requires that school districts provide “student factors based on district
records of average actual student generation rates for new developments constructed over a
period of not more than five years prior to the date of the fee calculation.” The Ordinance
also provides that, in the event this information is not available in the District, “data from
adjacent districts, districts with similar demographics, or county-wide averages must be
used.” In years past, the district has opted to use averaging data from nearby districts, but
instead chose to evaluate actual student generation data for last year’s CFP and has chosen
to utilize the same numbers for this 2022 CFP. Student generation rates will be re-
calculated next year, as the effect of the pandemic and the inflationary market may settle
out.

POLICY & PROCEDURE
Subject: REMOTE ATTENDANCE AT COUNCIL MEETINGS
Index: LEGISLATIVE
Number: 800-13
Effective Date: TBD
Supersedes: 12/10/2018
Page: 1 of 2
Staff Contact: CAO
Approved By: Resolution #
1.0 PURPOSE:
To establish remote attendance guidelines for all types of City Council meetings.
2.0 ORGANIZATIONS AFFECTED:
City Councilmembers
3.0 REFERENCES:
RCW 42.30
4.0 POLICY:
4.1 Remote Attendance Authorized: The Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA) requires
that when safe to do so, meeting locations be at a physical location, but
encourages policies and practices that accommodate remote viewing and
participation. The Council recognizes the benefits of full attendance of its
members at regular, special, and emergency meetings and encourages
Councilmembers to attend in-person when safe to do so. However, the Council
also recognizes there are times when Councilmembers may be unable to attend
meetings physically or safely in person. To accommodate occasional remote
attendance, each Councilmember may remotely attend all types of Council
meetings by telephonic/virtual means up to four (4) times in a single calendar year
without separate approval of the Council.
4.2 Notice to Council Liaison: Councilmembers shall provide notice of their intent to
attend a City Council meeting remotely to the Council Liaison, or designee, at least
fifteen (15) minutes prior to the meeting.
4.3 Limits on Authorization for Remote Attendance: If their attendance can be
technologically accommodated by City staff, Councilmembers who have
previously remotely attended less than four (4) Council meetings within the
AGENDA ITEM # 7. c)

calendar year will be allowed to fully participate in the meeting without separate
Council authorization. Except in the case of emergency meetings or as required to
commence a meeting with a quorum, Councilmembers who have already
attended four (4) Council meetings remotely within the calendar year will not be
allowed to fully participate in the meeting without preapproval by majority vote
of the Council. Nothing in this Policy prevents a Councilmember from remotely
attending as a member of the public.
4.4 Exception to Limit on Remote Attendance: Remote attendance shall not count
against the four (4) instances of remote attendance if such remote attendance
was (a) prior to January 1, 2023, (b) a result of a request to attend pursuant to
Section 4.8 of this Policy, or (c) as a result of a remote or hybrid meeting held in
accordance with Section 4.11 of this Policy.
4.5 No Minimum Number of In Person Council Attendees: There shall be no
restrictions on the number of Councilmembers attending any meeting remotely.
4.6 Use of Staff Approved Technology Required: Remote attendance by a
Councilmember shall be through the City’s approved online videoconferencing
software application or other available technological solution approved by City
staff.
4.7 All Attendees Must be able to Hear All Participants: All meeting attendees must
be able to hear all authorized meeting participants speak in real time, including
Councilmembers who participate remotely. Councilmembers who attend a
meeting remotely but cannot meet this requirement will be considered to have
not been in attendance. When technologically feasible, Councilmembers and
those invited to present to Council are encouraged to keep their cameras on.
4.8 Requests For Remote Attendance: The Council President, or designee, at their
discretion, may also request absent Councilmembers to attend remotely to ensure
a quorum of the Council so that City business can be conducted in a timely
manner. Remote attendance in response to such a request shall not count against
the called-upon the limit on remote attendance in Section 4.3 of this Policy.
4.9 Recording Remote Attendance: A Councilmember’s remote attendance will be
recorded in the official minutes of the Council meeting.
4.10 Remote Attendance at Executive Sessions: Councilmembers may also attend
executive sessions remotely if they have met the requirements of this policy and
the attendance can be technologically accommodated.
4.11 Remote Meetings and Attendance During Declared Emergencies: In the event of
an emergency declared by the President of the United States, the Governor of

Washington State, the Mayor, or another authorized official, and a determination
by either the Mayor, Council President, or their designee that an in-person
meeting cannot be held with reasonable safety due to the emergency, the Council
may hold remote meetings without a physical location, or may limit the physical
attendance of some or all members of the public and City staff at a meeting. A
meeting held in accordance with this subsection shall comply with the Open Public
Meetings Act – RCW 42.30, as now enacted or hereafter amended, and as lawfully
suspended or altered in accordance with a declared emergency.
5.0 DEFINITIONS:
5.1 Quorum: The minimum number of Councilmembers who must be present at a
meeting to transact Council business. Generally, a quorum consists of four or more
Councilmembers.

audio/video equipment to attend a meeting with people who are in different
locations.
