Paul,
As the utility construction phase of this project moves towards completion, the following items are required to be completed before the public works utility permit can be signed off
and Certificate of Occupancy can be issued by the City of Renton’s Building Department. Please use this letter as a project closeout checklist to keep your project moving smoothly through
City process. These items include the following:
Construction: Jan Illian/Pat Miller
1. Complete all utility, drainage, paving, grading, lighting, landscaping and street improvements for the project, including offsite and onsite. This includes completion of all outstanding
punchlist items as requested from the Utility Inspector and/or the City Maintenance Division. The construction permit permit must be signed off by the inspector, Pat Miller (206-794-6162)
prior to Final Occupancy.
2. Bill of Sale. This document must be prepared and submitted to the City for review and approval prior to recording of the plat. This document shall reflect all public improvements
to be turned over to the City. Please provide an original signed and notarized copy.
3. Cost Data Inventory. This document must be prepared and submitted to the City for review and approval prior to request of temporary occupancy. The Cost Data Inventory must reflect
the actual cost of construction in dollars (value) for each utility the City will own and maintain. The call outs on the Cost Data should match the Bill of Sale.
4. As-Builts Civil Plans. Provide two full size sets of paper copies. The inspector will review the asbuilts and create a list of punchlist items. Once approved by the inspector, final
“As built” construction mylars must be submitted for our permanent records. As-builts are required to be on file with the City. All plan sheets, including those constructed per design,
must be verified, stamped and signed as “As-Built” by a licensed surveyor or engineer. The mylars shall be labeled “As-Built” in large block letters and stamped by a PE or PLS. Submit
a CAD file along with your As-Built drawings.
5. Maintenance Bond/Maintenance & Defect Agreement. After the construction permit is signed off by the inspector, a two year Maintenance Bond must be posted with the City for 20% of
the value of the
public improvements to be turned over to the City. The amount will be 20% of the total costs shown on the Cost Data. The original construction bond will be released after the maintenance
bond is accepted by the City. Maintenance Bond must be on file with the city prior to request of temporary occupancy.
6. Life Safety. Completion of all life safety items.
7. Easements/Dedication. Separate utility easements, where applicable will be required to be submitted for review. Easement documents must be submitted, approved, and recorded by the
City. Please submit all easements for our review and approval. We will request final signature and notarization once our Technical Services Section has approved the legal description
and easement form. Please include legal description as “Exhibit A” and map showing location of easement as “Exhibit B”.

The above items are required to be completed before sign off of the construction project and prior to issuance of the Final Certificate of Occupancy. The construction project closeout
items are coordinated through me in the Development Engineering Section. Coordination between city staff, the property owner, contractor and surveyor is essential. Please note that
review and approval may take several weeks. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment to discuss the requirements outlined in this letter, please contact me
at 425-430-7216 or by email at jillian@rentonwa.gov.
In lieu of a Final Certificate Occupancy, a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) can be issued. A TCO is valid for 90 days. If the project close out documents are not in place and
construction is not 100% complete, a security deposit in the amount of $15,000 will be required to be in place prior to issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy. All TCOs and
COs are processed and issued through the Building Department.
Sincerely,
Jan Illian
