Environmental Impacts The Proposal was circulated and reviewed by various City Departments and Divisions to determine whether the applicant has adequately identified and addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in conjunction with the proposed development. Staff reviewers have identified that the proposal is likely to have the following probable impacts: 1. Earth Impacts: The applicant submitted a Geotechnical Engineering Services Report, prepared by GeoEngineers, Inc. (dated October 29, 2019; Exhibit 14), with the master land use application. The site is relatively flat, with up to three feet (3’) of grade difference throughout. According to the Report, the subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by drilling 24 borings (B-1, B-2, PB-1, AB-1 through AB-3, OB-1 through OB-7, GEI-1, GEI-2, B-1-19 through B-4-19, and GEI-1-19 through GEI-5-19) and advancing six (6) cone penetration tests (CPTs) (CPT-1 through CPT-6) to depths ranging from approximately 10 to 85 feet below existing site grades. The soils encountered at the site consist of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits. The fill was observed by the geotechnical engineer to be below the pavement or topsoil, and generally consisted of loose to dense sand with varying silt and gravel content. A thin layer of stiff sandy silt with occasional gravel was encountered within the fill unit in boring B-1. The thickness of fill ranged from 4 feet (4’) up to approximately eight feet (8’) across the site. Alluvium was observed below the fill. Alluvium soil typically consists of very soft to stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content. Thin layers of stiff peat were observed within the alluvium unit in several borings. The alluvium soil unit observed at the site includes two (2) sub-units: upper loose to medium dense alluvium, and lower medium dense to dense alluvium. The submitted Report discusses that ground water was discovered between four feet (4’) and 13 feet below the existing ground surface. Measurements following the well installation indicated the site groundwater level is about 8.2 feet below existing grades. The geotechnical report indicated that large scale infiltration is not feasible due to the relatively shallow groundwater table (as shallow as four feet (4’) below grade) and the presence of low permeability silt soils near the ground surface. The geotechnical engineer concluded that the use of large- scale infiltration facilities is not feasible at the site. According to the Report, foundation support for the proposed building can be provided by augercast piles or by shallow foundations bearing on improved ground. Static settlements would depend on the thickness of new fill placed in the building footprint. If slab areas are not supporte d on deep foundations or DocuSign Envelope ID: 9D2BB334-50A7-4DEB-B080-28705A1188AE City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Renton Retail Park Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000291, SA-A, ECF Report of November 21, 2022 Page 4 of 9 SR_ERC_Report_Renton_Retail_Park_221121_v1 improved ground or treated with a preload program, long-term static settlement is anticipated to be greater than one inch (1”). The Report concludes that an at-grade floor slab for the building should be underlain by at least six inches (6”) of clean crushed rock for uniform support and as a capillary break. The applicant is proposing approximately 4,500 cubic yards (CY) of cut and approximately 4,500 CY of fill to construct the proposed improvements. GeoEngineers recommends that they be retained to review the project plans and specifications when complete to confirm that design recommendations have been implemented as intended. During construction, GeoEngineers should observe stripping and grading; observe and evaluate installation of ground improvement elements or deep foundations; observe and evaluate the suitability of foundation, wall and floor slab subgrades; observe removal of unsuitable fill and debris/rubble from below the building and hardscape areas; observe and test structural fill; observe installation of subsurface drainage measures and infiltration facilities; evaluate the suitability of pavement subgrades and other appurtenant structures, and provide a summary letter of our construction observation services. The purposes of GeoEngineers’ construction phase services are to confirm that the subsurface conditions are consistent with those observed in the explorations, to provide recommendations for design changes should the conditions revealed during the work differ f rom those anticipated, to evaluate whether or not earthwork and foundation installation activities are completed in accordance with our recommendations. As such, staff recommends a mitigation measure that the applicant comply with all recommendations included within the Geotechnical Engineering Services Report, prepared by GeoEngineers, Inc. on October 29, 2019, and any future addenda. Mitigation Measures: Project construction shall be required to comply with the recommendations found in the Geotechnical Engineering Services Report, prepared by GeoEngineers, Inc. on October 29, 2019, and any future addenda. Nexus: State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Environmental Review; City of Renton Comprehensive Plan Policy L-36; RMC 4-3-050 Critical Areas Regulations; and RMC 4-4-060 Grading, Excavation and Mining Regulations. 2. Air Impacts: It is anticipated that some short-term impacts to air quality typical of building construction activity would be associated with site work required to develop this site. Long-term impacts to air quality would be as a result of vehicle exhaust from customers and residents. According to the Environmental (SEPA) Checklist (Exhibit 20), the long-term impacts identified are not anticipated to be significant. Project development impacts during construction may include dust, resulting from grading and exhaust from construction vehicles. Dust control would be mitigated through the use of temporary erosion control measures and/or sprinkling of the site with water to remediate impacts as needed. No further site specific mitigation for the identified impacts from typical vehicle and construction exhaust is required. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 3. Water a. Storm Water Impacts: A Technical Information Report (TIR), prepared by Navix Engineering (dated July 25, 2022 and revised October 14, 2022; Exhibit 10), was submitted with the application. Stormwater would be managed onsite in accordance with the standards of the 2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual (SWDM). Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak Rate Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area matching existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project site is the previous Boeing development, which had roughly 95% impervious surface coverage. Flow control would not be required as the proposed development would decrease DocuSign Envelope ID: 9D2BB334-50A7-4DEB-B080-28705A1188AE City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Renton Retail Park Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000291, SA-A, ECF Report of November 21, 2022 Page 5 of 9 SR_ERC_Report_Renton_Retail_Park_221121_v1 the impervious surface coverage to less than 85% and the proposed development condition would not generate more than a 0.15-cubic foot per second (cfs) increase in the 100-year peak flow. Stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating parking areas would be routed to a Biopod Biofilter unit, that was installed as part of Phase I, prior to discharge to the municipal conveyance system in Park Ave N. A downstream analysis was performed as part of Phase I and includes the TIR approved under civil construction permit C20000631. As outlined in the drainage report, the project site is part of the Topgolf East Lake Washington Drainage Basin. Storm water from this site is conveyed to catch basins via drainage swales. These catch basins are part of the Topgolf development which discharges to the municipal storm system located at the intersection of N 8th St and Park Ave N. The TIA indicated that there are no known problems with the drainage paths around the site and no downstream impacts from the proposed project are anticipated. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. b. Ground Water Impacts: The southeast corner of the site lies within Downtown Wellhead Protection Area Zone 2. This zone prohibits the use of open facilities for stormwater control or otherwise, which are not being proposed as part of the development. Any conditions of approval would be provided as part of Civil Construction Approval. The Department of Ecology (DOE) submitted ground water comments given groundwater was observed as shallow as four feet (4’) below ground surface (bgs) (Exhibit 17). DOE recommended that the project including adding information to the SEPA Environmental Checklist and adding protocol if dewatering is anticipated during soil removal and construction. According to the applicant, no groundwater would be withdrawn from a well and no water would be discharged to groundwater. However, if groundwater is encountered during construction activities, it is anticipated that groundwater in excavations less than roughly five feet (5’) below existing grades would be controlled by open pumping using sump pumps. For excavations extending deeper and below the static ground water table, dewatering using well points or deep walls would be necessary. A proposed dewatering plan would be prepared and provided prior to construction activities (Exhibit 21). It is anticipated that the City’s adopted stormwater regulations would be sufficient to mitigate any stormwater, runoff, and dewatering impacts resulting from the proposed project; therefore, no further mitigation is recommended. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 4. Environmental Health a. Environmental Health Hazards Impacts: According to the applicant, no environmental health hazards are anticipated as part of the development. The site was previously used by Boeing as part of an aircraft development and manufacturing facility and consisted of offices, storage areas, and photograph development labs. At one time, the presence of vinyl chloride in groundwater and soil gas was documented. According to the SEPA Environmental Checklist, additional soil, groundwater, and soil-gas sampling was performed, which revealed no presence of VOC’s (including vinyl chloride) above Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) screening levels. The Department of Ecology (DOE) submitted environmental health comments that indicated the proposed project site is located immediately adjacent to Boeing Renton facility, which is a cleanup site with a cleanup site ID 820 and facility site ID 2097 (Exhibit 17). Due to the proximity to the Boeing Renton facility, DOE is recommending contingency actions in the event if subsurface work encounter soil and/or groundwater contamination. The contingency actions should include DocuSign Envelope ID: 9D2BB334-50A7-4DEB-B080-28705A1188AE City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Renton Retail Park Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000291, SA-A, ECF Report of November 21, 2022 Page 6 of 9 SR_ERC_Report_Renton_Retail_Park_221121_v1 mitigation measures to address the following: (a) hazardous waste operations worker training, health/safety plan, and site control requirements, per WAC 296-843; (b) management of contaminated soil encountered during excavations, including sampling, containment, and disposal at a permitted facility; and (c) management of contaminated ground water, if encountered, including sampling, containment, and disposal at a permitted facility. Therefore, staff recommends as a mitigation measure, the applicant follow DOE’s recommended contingency actions as outlined. Mitigation Measures: The applicant shall be subject to the following contingency actions in the event if subsurface work encounter soil and/or groundwater contamination: • Hazardous waste operations worker training, health/safety plan, and site control requirements, per WAC 296-843; • Management of contaminated soil encountered during excavations, including sampling, containment, and disposal at a permitted facility; and • Management of contaminated ground water, if encountered, including sampling, containment, and disposal at a permitted facility. Nexus: State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Environmental Review; Chapter 173-340 WAC, Model Toxics Control Act – Cleanup; and Chapter 296-843 WAC, Hazardous Waste Operations. a. Noise Impacts: Short-term construction activity-related noise is anticipated during daylight hours consistent with state and local regulations. Commercial and other nonresidential construction activities are restricted to the hours between seven o’clock (7:00) a.m. and eight o’clock (8:00) p.m., Monday through Friday. Work on Saturdays shall be restricted to the hours between nine o’clock (9:00) a.m. and eight o’clock (8:00) p.m. No work shall be permitted on Sundays. Typical long-term noise associated with the operation of the development is not anticipated to create any significant impact to the site or surrounding properties that are also zoned UC-2. The closest single family residential neighborhood is over 1,100 feet to the south (south of N 6th St). The typical noise created from a Topgolf facility include people gathering for retail uses consistent with those in The Landing. Noise levels would be required to comply with City of Renton code (Chapter 7 Noise Level Regulations) and Washington State code (WAC 173-60-040). Therefore, typical noise levels from retail use are anticipated to result in a less-than-significant noise impact. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 5. Aesthetics Impacts: The tallest height of the 7,000 square foot 1-story building is approximately 26 feet above finished grade. The buildings would be oriented to the intersection of N 8th St and Park Ave N and would include a 1,300 square foot shared patio with a composite wood pergola at the intersection. The exterior cladding and articulations materials primarily consist of a mixture of ACM metal panels, brick veneer, aluminum storefront system, glass section doors, self-draining Exterior Insulation and Finish System (EIFS), metal canopy, parapet, and coping cap (Exhibits 7 and 8). According to the applicant, the exterior material selections were designed to complement the adjacent Topgolf facility, which were found to be high quality and were consistent with the city’s development standards. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 6. Light and Glare DocuSign Envelope ID: 9D2BB334-50A7-4DEB-B080-28705A1188AE City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Renton Retail Park Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000291, SA-A, ECF Report of November 21, 2022 Page 7 of 9 SR_ERC_Report_Renton_Retail_Park_221121_v1 Impacts: The addition of new light sources on the subject property would increase the light and glare in the area. Onsite lighting would include interior and exterior building lighting and parking area lighting. The designated parking lot fixtures would be LED fixtures that would comply with the lighting requirements of the Renton code, including a maximum mounting height of 25 feet above grade and a maximum foot - candle of zero (0) FC at the property line. According to the applicant, no glare from the project is anticipated to be a public safety hazard or interfere with views. As previously indicated, all lighting proposed for the project would be consistent with applicable lighting regulations and zero light spillage is anticipated at the property boundaries. No existing off-site light or glare sources are anticipated to affect this proposal. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 7. Transportation Impacts: A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), prepared by prepared by Transpo Group, dated October 2022 (Exhibit 15) was submitted with the land use application. The proposed project includes the retail portion of Phase 2 of the Topgolf development. The subject property contains street frontage along Park Ave N along the east property line, N 8th St along the north property line, and Logan Ave N along the west property line. The applicant has proposed vehicle access on both Park Ave N and Logan Ave N. The new primary vehicle access for Phase 2 development is proposed along Park Ave N. The access along Logan Ave N was constructed as part of Phase 1 – Topgolf project. The proposed retail construction project is anticipated to commence in early Spring of 2023 (Exhibit 20). The TIA analysis included a review of existing and future conditions in the vicinity of the project site without-project condition, including transportation network, planned improvements, traffic volumes, traffic operations, and traffic safety, project impacts, mitigation measures, and findings and recommendations. The TIA analysis assumed a future 2031 horizon analysis year. Future with-project conditions are evaluated by adding site-generated traffic to future without-project volumes and were then compared to future without-project conditions to identify the relative impacts the proposed project has on the surrounding transportation system. The report evaluates the Level of Service (LOS) at two (2) subject intersections, Park Ave N/N 8th St and Park Ave N/N 6th St. The level of service at the subject intersections was found to operate at a LOS C with or without the project. As a result, both study intersections are expected to continue to operate at the same LOS as under existing conditions and increases in delay are anticipated up to four (4) seconds. Temporary Impacts Given the concentration of traffic and development projects in the area, staff anticipates that the proposed project could contribute to short-term impacts to the City’s street system. Temporary adverse transportation impacts are primarily associated with site work. The applicant has proposed construction mitigation through the limitation of construction hours stipulated in Renton Municipal Code (Exhibit 21). Level of Service The TIA discusses trip generation for the proposed Phase 2 project based on the established rates published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition, 2021). Based on the TIA, the proposed Phase 2 projects (7,000 sf retail + 114 hotel rooms) are estimated to generate 1,554 weekday net new daily trips with 120 weekday AM peak hour trips (66 inbound and 54 outbound) and 113 weekday PM peak hour trips (61 inbound and 52 outbound). The hotel use would account for 812 weekday net new daily trips with 50 weekday AM peak hour trips (28 inbound and 22 outbound) and 56 weekday PM Peak hour trips (29 inbound and 27 outbound). Whereas the retail/restaurant use would account for 742 weekday net new daily trips with 70 weekday AM peak hour trips (6 inbound and -10 outbound) and 57 weekday PM Peak hour trips (3 inbound and -4 outbound), after applying the less commercial pass-by for retail and restaurants. DocuSign Envelope ID: 9D2BB334-50A7-4DEB-B080-28705A1188AE City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Renton Retail Park Staff Report to the Environmental Review Committee LUA22-000291, SA-A, ECF Report of November 21, 2022 Page 8 of 9 SR_ERC_Report_Renton_Retail_Park_221121_v1 According to TIA, an increase in traffic is estimated up to approximately 1% at the Park Ave N/N 8th St off- site study intersection during the AM and PM peaks hours and by less than 8% at the Park Ave N/N 6th St off-site intersection during the AM and PM peaks hours. With the addition of project traffic, the off-site study intersections are anticipated to continue to operate at LOS C or better during the weekday AM and PM peak hours, meeting the City’s LOS standard. In addition, the primary site access driveway along Park Ave N is forecast to operate at LOS B or better during the weekday peak hours, meeting the City’s LOS standard. Given the study intersections and site access would operate within the LOS standard, the TIA did not propose any mitigation measures for the proposed project. Frontage Improvements All frontage roads are required to meet street standards pursuant to RMC 4-6-060. As part of Master Plan approval (LUA19-000094), the applicant received a street modification from RMC 4-6-060, in order to retain the existing frontage improvements along all street frontages. As a condition of approval, the applicant was required to dedicate eight feet (subject to final survey) of right-of-way along Logan Ave N and repair any damaged street frontage including, but not limited to, existing cement concrete sidewalk and roadway pavement along Logan Ave N, N 8th St, and Park Ave N. In addition, the applicant was also required to raise the existing grade within the planter strip to be level with the sidewalk and curb along the project’s street frontage and revegetate. Dedication and compliance with the conditions of approval is being completed under the active civil construction permit C20000631, see Advisory Notes for more street frontage information (Exhibit 22). Concurrency Staff has reviewed the data and methods utilized in the TIA and determined that the proposed commercial space development would not generate any significant traffic impacts. Staff determined that at completion of the project, the development will have met City of Renton concurrency requirements (Exhibit 16), which is based upon a test of the citywide Transportation Plan, consideration of growth levels included in the LOS-tested Transportation Plan, site specific improvements, and future payment of Transportation Impact Fees. The transportation impact fee that is current at the time of building permit application would be levied. Therefore, at this time, staff does not recommend any site-specific mitigation measures related to traffic impacts. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation required. Nexus: Not applicable. 8. Fire & Police Impacts: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicated that sufficient resources exist to furnish services to the proposed development; subject to the condition that the applicant provides Code required improvements and fees (Exhibit 22). Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. E. Comments of Reviewing Departments The proposal has been circulated to City Department and Division Reviewers. Where applicable, their comments have been incorporated into the text of this report and/or “Advisory Notes to Applicant.” ✓ Copies of all Review Comments are contained in the Official File and may be attached to this report. The Environmental Determination decision will become final if the decision is not appealed within the 14 -day appeal period (RCW 43.21.C.075(3); WAC 197-11-680).
