The Examiner' s preliminary decision would require an application for an exception in order to complete the application . As an alternative , you could request the City Clerk' s office , through our department , to forward the Hearing Examiner' s decision to the City Council for their consideration and resolution of the street extension issue. Assuming that you did not propose any modifications in the original ar- rangement of your plat , either approach would be acceptable . Since we have discussed on several occasions the possibility of rearranging the lotting of your plat , it may be more expeditious to submit an amendment application , which then can . be forwarded to the Hearing Examiner for review and approval and the issue of the street resolved at that time. If we can assist you in determining the best approach, please feel free to contact us . Very truly yours , Go/don Y. Eri k -e-n Planning Dire or' avid R.

Because of this requirement, the applicant will have to apply for an exception to the Subdivision Ordinance pursuant to Section 9-1109. Sincerely, Fred J.

GUSTAFSON PRELIMINARY PLAT, PP-334-79, E-347-79 (R-292-79) We have thoroughly reviewed your memorandum as referenced above and your decision on this proposed preliminary plat and find that it violates Section 9-1108.7.K of the Subdivi- sion Ordinance, which states : Cul-de-sacs are permitted provided they do not exceed five hundred feet (500 ' ) in length. As you will note on the attached drawing, the minimum cul- de-sac length will be 580 feet. Without approval of an exception, this plat design may not be approved.

Ericksen, Planning Director • FROM: Fred J. Kaufman, Hearing Examiner SUBJECT: Request for Reconsideration; File No. PP-334-79, E-347-79 (R-292-79); Arthur D. Gustafson Preliminary Plat I have reviewed theY Planning Department's request for reconsideration and find that at this time there is no merit in reconsidering the above captioned matter. While the Examiner's Report on the matter implies reconsideration per Recommendation No. 4, this was to occur after review by the Planning and Public Works Departments in consultation with other city agencies mentioned in your memorandum of June 20, 1979. The implication was that reconsideration would be limited to whether or not the applicant should open and improve a public right-of-way, not whether to create a community arterial on N.E. 10th Street. The City Council has just had occasion within the last two weeks to study the Six Year Transportation Improvement Program & Arterial Plan. The matter of the extension and opening of N.E. 10th Street was not brought up, at any of those public hearings or meetings. That would have been an appropriate forum for further review and discussion with affected members of the general public about the, extension of N.E. 10th Street. As the Examiner's Report notes, the definition of a "community arterial" and the definition of a "residential neighborhood," which the subject subdivision in part represents, appear to, clash. The same clash of obectives occurs along N.E. 10th Street west of the subject property. The creation of an arterial is a Policy matter to be ultimately determined by the City Council subsequent to a public hearing. However, the right-of-way in question will be required to be dedicated to the city for public access per Recommendation No. 4 and could be opened at some future date. Fred J.

' • PUBLIC HEARING: . After reviewing the Planning Department reports, examining . available information on file with the 'application., and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner' (Rezone) conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on May 15, 1979 at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building to review rezone application, R-292-79. Parties wishing- to 'testify were affirmed. by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1. • David Clemens, Associate Planner, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following 'additional exhibit into the record: • Exhibit #2: King County Assessor's Map The Examiner referenced Section J. (Environmental Assessment/Threshold Determination) which indicates that due to the modest size of the proposal, and subject to retention of existing evergreen trees on the site, a Declaration of' Non-Significance has been issued for the' subject proposal, and he inquired if a separate. threshold determination had been required for the rezone proposal as -well as the preliminary plat application scheduled at a subsequent-public hearing:. Mr. Clemens advised that a single declaration was determined sufficient to encompass proposed action regarding' approval' of the subdivision for single family' residential'use.. The Examiner noted a typographical error in Section I.2 .of Exhibit #1'which' erroneously' denotes the proposed-number of lots as 17 instead of . the requested 18 -lots. The Examiner requested testimony by the applicant. . Responding was:' • Arthur Gustafson 909 Union Avenue N.E. • Renton, WA 98055 • .

PUBLIC HEARING: (Rezone., Preliminary Plat, Exception) The hearing was opened on June 5, 1979 at 9:10 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the supplementary Planning Department report, dated June 5, 1979, which incorporates both the rezone and preliminary plat staff •reports, dated May 15, 1979, as well as the supplementary report regarding the preliminary plat and exception, dated May 22, 1979. The report was entered into the record as Exhibit #3. The Examiner indicated that because the rezone had been reviewed through a prior public hearing which was subsequently closed, dependent upon the applicant's concurrence in the matter, the previous discussion could be incorporated into the record without further review. Mr. Gustafson indicated his concurrence in the procedure. Mr. Clemens reviewed the preliminary plat and exception request, and entered the following additional exhibit into the record: Exhibit #4: Preliminary Plat as submitted • Mr. Clemens noted that the proposed plat contains a total of 18 lots, 17 of'which will contain 7500 square feet and one of larger size which contains, the existing residence of the applicant. He also advised that extension of N.E. 10th Street from Union Avenue N.E. to Redmond Avenue N.E. was recommended in the proposal. • The Examiner asked the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #3. Mr. Gustafson indicated his concurrence in the report. The Examiner inquired if the applicant was amenable to provision of improvements along Union Avenue N.E. and retention of existing trees along the western boundary of the site. Mr. Gustafson responded affirmatively. The Examiner requested a representative of the Public Works Department to testify regarding the question of sanitary sewer connection from the site. Paul Lumbert, Traffic Engineering Division, advised that although the department has not received utility profiles, the applicant's engineer 'has reviewed the matter and is confident that sanitary sewer connection can be accomplished. The Examiner inquired if the Public Works Department concurs in the requiremen for provision of off-site improvements as part of development. Mr. Lumbert indicated the department's concurrence. The Examiner requested testimony in, support or opposition to the application. There was no response. He then requested further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on File No. R-292-79, PP-334-79 and E-347-79 was closed by the Examiner at 9:35 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1. The request is for approval of a reclassification of +6.8 acres from General (GS-1) to Suburban Residence No. 1 (SR-1) . ' In conjunction with this request the applicant has submitted a request for approval of a preliminary plat and pipestem exception. 2.. The Planning Department report sets forth the issues,' applicable policies and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter, and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report by reference as set forth in full therein. R-2__ 79 Page Three • • • PP-334-79, E-347-79 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental .Ordinance and the State Environmental • Policy Act of 1971, R.C.W.. . 43.21.C. , as amended, a Declaration of Non-Significance has been issued 'for the subject..proposal by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official. • 4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by, all city departments affected by the impact of this development: • 5. There was no opposition. to the proposal expressed. 6. The Public Works Department indicated that sewer and water service can be made available for the subject property. 7.• The proposal is compatible with the' required setbacks, lot coverage and height requirements of Section 4-704 of Title IV, 'Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General Ordinances. 8. The subject site is located along Union Avenue N.E. in the vicinity of N.E. 10th Street. Approximately the eastern two-thirds of the site is covered by grasses, with the western one-third covered mostly.by Douglas Fir trees and some deciduous trees'. • 9. The subject site was annexed 'into the the City of Renton by Ordinance No. 1609, dated April 29, 1957. The current GS-1 zoning was applied at that time. 10. The subject site is just north of Kiwanis Park. Development in the area generally consists of single family residences. There is a hub of commercial growth occurring on or near N.E. .4th Street and Union. Avenue N.E. The same is true along Sunset Boulevard N.E. The subject site is the last sizeable area in this vicinity to be proposed for development. The site is crossed in the western portion by the BPA transmission line easement. 11. The Comprehensive Plan indicates that this area is suitable for single family residential-use. Except for the park to the south, single family uses of various . densities surround the site. Development to the north and northwest is in a G-7200 ' zone. Lots to the west are developed'in. a GS-1 zone and lot size varies.' To the • • east, which consists of both unincorporated•King County and the City of. Renton, development is also single family residential: ' 12. Union Avenue N.E. is a north-south arterial. The major east-west routes in the area are N.E. 4th Street to the south and N.E. 12th Street to the north.' The Planning Department has. indicated that N.E. 10th Street will be opened. through the proposed plat. N.E. 10th Street would then become a direct route to Sunset Boulevard N.E. from Union Avenue N.E. 13. Both sewer and water service will have to be extended to the proposed plat. Standard fees for hookup will apply. 14. ' Since annexation, the area has not been the subject of any other rezone requests. The Comprehensive Plan was the only review of the. subject area. The Comprehensive Plan indicated a single. family suitability' for this. area. ' 15. If the rezone is approved.the applicant'proposes developing an 18-lot subdivision on the, subject property., The plat would consist of 17 lots of approximately 7500 square feet and-brie large lot .which is developed with 'the applicant's residence. • Lot 4 of -the proposed subdivision.would have a pipestem access 20 .feet wide and about 64 feet long. There' is 'currently no public street in the vicinity of the proposed pipestem lot, and none is proposed. An exception is required to create a pipestem lot pursuant•to Section 9-1108.23 (F)3 (d) . CONCLUSIONS: (Rezone) • 1. The proponent. of a rezone must demonstrate compliance with •at least one of the three criteria listed in Section 4-3014. which provides in part that; a. The site has not been considered in' a previous area wide rezone; b. The subject site is potentially zoned for- the new classification per the Comprehensive Plan; or c. There have been demonstrated changes in the area since the last rezoning action. The. applicant has demonstrated that the necessary criteria to permit a rezone of • the subject property have been met. R-292•-,,_ Page Four PP-334-79, E-347-79 2. The.current classification, GS-1, was applied to the subject property upon annexation by the city in 1957. Since that time this property has remained relatively undeveloped while the area surrounding the subject site has undergone considerable growth and development. The subject site is the last remaining parcel of this size to be proposed for subdivision and development in this area. Both to the north and west, single family homes have been developed. Lots to the north are about 7500 square feet. To the west, lot size varies. The Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located for potential development of single family residences. Single family use is proposed by the applicant. 3. The proposed single family development will be served by the commercial. areas developing to the south, along N.E. 4th Street, and to the north, along Sunset Boulevard N.E. The proposed use will permit use of the subject property for needed single. family residential development. The use of this area will permit the in-filling of "the area rather than extending growth into other sparsely developed ;areas. 4. Any use of this area whether generated by the proposed subdivision or some other development will have some. impact on Kiwanis Park. Therefore, the applicant should provide a buffer along all property lines which the subject property shares with the park. A covenant to provide a buffer of 10 feet of natural landscaping will protect the park from development but not deny the applicant reasonable use of the subject property. CONCLUSIONS: (Preliminary Plat) 5. The proposed preliminary plat is compatible with the Comprehensive Plan and surrounding land uses in the area. As previously mentioned, the area is potentially designated as single family residential and is surrounded by similar uses on generally similar sized lots. 6. All of the proposed lots either equal or meet the minimum requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. One of the lots, containing the applicant's current residence, will be much larger than-the -remaining lots. Another of the lots has a pipestem access and the applicant has requested an exception for that lot. • 7. The Planning Department has indicated that N.E. 10th Street will be opened through the proposed subdivision. There would still be a small section of this street right- of-way which will not be opened if the proposal is completed. The eventual development of N.E. 10th Street can be expected to generate considerable use of this cross street because.it will be the only east/west street between N.E. 4th Street and N.E. 12th Street. Such useage will inevitably impact residents along N.E. 10th Street. The impact of opening N.E. 10th Street was not fully reviewed at the hearing on the subject matter. N.E. 10th Street has the potential of becoming a major east/west connector between the large commercial shopping areas west on Sunset Boulevard N.E. and the expansive residential communities to the east. Unlike property along N.E. 4th Street and N.E. 12th Street which are zoned or used for either commercial or multifamily uses, most of the properties along N.E. 10th Street are single family residential. Single family uses should be protected from heavy traffic. On page 4 of the Renton Urban Area Comprehensive Plan (1965) a residential neighborhood is described as an area "of relatively solid patterns of homes, linked. by quiet streets. . .". "In planning . neighborhoods, the creation of residential districts free of overcrowding influences, arterial traffic, . . .are important objectives." " (Arterials) should not conflict or interfere with the functions of residential neighborhoods." At the same time the Arterial and Street Plan for the Renton Urban Area has designated . N.E. 10th Street as a Community Arterial (Map, page 13; Table 2, page 35) . A Community Arterial is defined on page 6 as a street which "should be located on neighborhood boundaries and should serve major traffic volumes generated within the community. They should serve as a secondary connecting link between residential areas and major facilities, such as shopping centers, located therein." N.E. 10th Street appears. to cut through a neighborhood rather than pass along its boundaries. It would pass through not only the subject proposal but also the single family area to the west. • Further review would appear. to be indicated before N.E. 10th Street is opened as a "community arterial." The addition of this 18-lot plat will not of itself generate enough traffic to warrant such opening. The..public safety and welfare would be better served by a review' of the particular impacts which such an opening would have on the R-292-79 Page Five PP-334-79, E-347-79 subject proposal and the other single family, areas in the vicinity. Until such further review, the section of N.E. 10th Street west of Union Avenue N.E. should end in a cul-de-sac with dedication of the remaining right-of-way for pedestrian use to permit the blending of the proposed residential subdivision with the existing neighborhood to the west. • 8. The proposed development will generate increased traffic and pedestrian circulation and will therefore have to provide for- the installation of off-site improvements. These should include but not be limited to street lights, curbs and sidewalks per approval of the Public Works Department. 9. The'existing trees should be maintained on site if possible to conform to the requirements of the Comprehensive Plan (page 11, Comprehensive Plan, 1965) , which indicates that natural features should be maintained. The Planning Department should maintain prior approval before the natural stand of trees is removed. This is particularly true in the .areas buffering Kiwanis Park. 10. The building and lot coverage shall be_per ordinance requirements unlessa variance is approved by the Board of Adjustment.- All. utilities and hookups shall be subject to the standard fees and ordinance requirements. (Pipestem Lot Exception) 11: The proposed Lot 4- is planned to have access via a pipestem to N.E. 10th Street. The Public Works Department indicated that no plans have been developed to provide a - through public street in this area. ' There is therefore no practical alternative to permit the development of this parcel without the exception which the applicant has . requested. 12. Approval of the exception will permit the development of one additional lot and will not adversely affect the public 'welfare, nor will it materially harm neighboring properties.

'Veg'e'tati'on : The easterly 2/3 of the site consists principally of grass while the westerly portion is composed of an abundant supply of Douglas Fir (particularly in the south section ) and some medium growth deciduous trees . 4. Wildlife : Existing vegetation on the site provides suitable habita for birds and small mammals . 5 . Water : No standing water was observed on the subject site . 6 . Land Use : The site is generally surrounded by single family homes with a church located to the north and the Kiwanis Park in the southwest . E . NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS : The area is basically single family residential in nature . F . PUBLIC SERVICES : 1 .

IMPACT ON THE NATURAL OR HUMAN ENVIRONMENT : 1 . Natural Systems : Rezoning of the subject site will not have a direct effect on the subject site . However , eveptual development will disturb the soils , remove vegetation , increase storm water runoff and have an effect on traffic and noise levels in the area . Through proper development controls and procedures , however , these impacts can be mitigated . 2 . Population/Employment : The proposed 17-lot subdivision will increase the area population by approximately 63 people (3 . 5 persons/home times 18 homes ) . This increase isn ' t likely to adversely affect evisting public services . 3 . Schools : The proposed plat will increase the school population by approximately 9 students ( . 5 student/home times 18 homes ) . These students will be distributed throughout the grades and should not significantly affect existing facilities . 4. Social : Development of the subject site into single family residences will provide increased opportunities for social inter- action among the area residents . 5. Traffic : The proposed development will increase traffic in the vicinity by approximately 180 trips/day ( 10 trips/unit times 18 units ) . Current traffic on Union Avenue NE of 9200 trips per day will thusbe increased by about 31/2% . J . ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION : Pursuant to the City of Renton ' s Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , as amended , RCW 43-21C , a declaration of non-significance has been prepared for the subject proposal , due to the modest size of the proposal , and retention to the maximum extent possible of the existing evergreen trees . K. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED : . 1 . City of Renton Building Division . 2 . City of Renton Engineering Division . 3. City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division . 4 . City of Renton Utilities Division . 5 . City of Renton Fire Department . 6 . City of Renton Parks Department. 7 . Renton School District No . 403 (no response ) . L . PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS : (Rezone ) 1 . The proposed rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and zoning designations of single family residential use for the site and surrounding area . 2 . Suitable water is available to the subject site although a main extension will be required from Union Avenue to Redmond: Avenue . Sewer service is questionable , however , the Utilities Engineering Division advises that there could be grade problems . (See comments ) 3 . The subject request is necessary to establish future lots that are consistent with the zoning and subdivision ordinances . This will allow for platting of the site and subsequent development for single family residences . 4 . Proposed future development will have to meet fire flow and access requirements as per Fire Department standards and comment. PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING : ARTHUR GUSTAFSON , File No : R-292-79 , PP-334-79 MAY 15 , 1979 PAGE FOUR 5 . Planning Department records indicate that no areawide rezone has occurred in this vicinity with exception of the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan in 1965 . 6 . Development in this general neighborhood area has previously encircled , but not included this site . Current development is generally commercial in nature near Sunset Blvd . NE or NE 4th and Union Avenue . This site , upon development , will complete the single family development of this neighborhood area . Additional comments of other departments are attached for consideration . M . DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS (Rezone ) Based upon the foregoing analysis , recommend approval of the rezone request from GS-1 to SR-1 . L . PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS : (Preliminary Plat ) 1 . The proposed plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element which designates the site and surrounding area as single family residential . 2 . The applicant ' s proposal is consistent with existing single family subdivisions to the north and east of the subject site . 3 . The proposed plat meets or exceeds all zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements relating to minimum lot size (7500 square feet) and dimensions with the following exception : The Building Division indicates that the setback lines illustrated would not meet the side yard setback requirement of 6 feet for 2-22 story structures as per Section 4-706-4 (c ) of the Zoning Code 4 . The water main on Union Avenue will have to be extended to Redmond Avenue NE and suitable sewer service supplied as per Utilities Engineering Division comment . Plans are required and the standard hook-up fees will be charged . (See comments ) 5 . The Engineering Division advises that storm water retention/ detention will be required as well as off-site improvements consisting of curbs , gutters , sidewalks , paving and storm drainage and street lighting on Union Avenue NE . 6 . Fire hydrants and water mains shall be installed per water engineering requirements . Hydrants and access shall be installed prior to any building construction . 7 . Traffic Engineering indicates that approximately 3 street lights will be required . 8. The Parks Department notes that the subject site is located in an area in which neighborhood park acquisition is complete. The existing Kiwanis Park (adjacent to the southerly boundary ) will be impacted by the new plat . (See comment) 9. After this plat application was received by the various departments and staff , it was discovered that Lot #4 is a pipe- stem lot . Due to this situation , application for an exception to the Subdivision Ordinance for a pipestem lot will be required (Section 9-1109 ) . The applicant has submitted the reques which has been advertised for public hearing on May 22 , 1979 . M .

Arents , Alderwood material (AmC ) . Permeability is moderately rapid . Runoff is medium and the erosion hazard is moderate to severe . This soil is used for urban development . 3 . Vegetation : The easterly 2/3 of the site consists principally of grass while the westerly portion is composed of an abundant supply of Douglas Fir (particularly in the south section ) and some medium growth deciduous trees . 4. Wildlife : Existing vegetation on the site provides suitable habita for birds and small mammals . 5 . Water : No standing water was observed on the subject site . 6 . Land Use : The site is generally surrounded by single family homes with a church located to the ' north and the Kiwanis Park in the southwest . E . NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS : The area is basically single family residential in nature . F . PUBLIC SERVICES : 1 . Water and Sewer : A 12" water main runs north-south on Union Avenue NE adjacent to the subject site . An 8" sanitary sewer is located on Union Avenue approximately 150 ' south of the subject site . 2 . Fire Protection : Provided by the Renton Fire Department per ordinance requirements . 3 . Transit : Metro Transit route #107 operates along Union Avenue NE adjacent to the subject site . 4. Schools : The Honeydew Elementary School is located to the east of the subject site across Union Avenue NE while McKnight Junior High School is situated within 1 3/4 miles to the northwest and Hazen Senior High School is approximately one mile to the northeast. 5 . Recreation : Kiwanis Park is adjacent to the south boundary of the subject site on Union Avenue and the grounds of the Honeydew Elementary School provide recreational opportunities for area residents .

PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING : ARTHUR GUSTAFSON , File No : R-292-79 , PP-334-79 MAY 15 , 1979 PAGE THREE I . IMPACT ON THE NATURAL OR HUMAN ENVIRONMENT : 1 . Natural Systems : Rezoning of the subject site will not have a direct effect on the subject site . However , eventual development will disturb the soils , remove vegetation , increase storm water runoff and have an effect on traffic and noise levels in the area . Through proper development controls and procedures , however , these impacts can be mitigated . 2 . Population/Employment : The proposed 17-lot subdivision will increase the area population by approximately 63 people (3 . 5 persons/home times 18 homes ) . This increase isn ' t likely to adversely affect evisting public services . 3 . Schools : The proposed plat will increase the school population by approximately 9 students ( . 5 student/home times 18 homes ) . These students will be distributed throughout the grades and should not significantly affect existing facilities . 4. Social : Development of the subject site into single family residences will provide increased opportunities for social inter- action among the area residents . 5. Traffic : The proposed development will increase traffic in the vicinity by approximately 180 trips/day (10 trips/unit times 18 units ) . Current traffic on Union Avenue NE of 9200 trips per day will thus be increased by about 31/2% . J . ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION : Pursuant to the City of Renton ' s Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , as amended , RCW 43-21C , a declaration of non-significance has been prepared for the subject proposal , due to the modest size of the proposal , and retention to the maximum extent possible of the existing evergreen trees . K. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED : 1 . City of Renton Building Division . 2 . City of Renton Engineering Division . 3. City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division . 4 . City of Renton Utilities Division . 5 . City of Renton Fire Department . 6 . City of Renton Parks Department. 7 . Renton School District No . 403 (no response ) . L . PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS : (Rezone ) 1 . The proposed rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and zoning designations of single family residential use for the site and surrounding area . 2 . Suitable water is available to the subject site although a main extension will be required from Union Avenue to Redmond Avenue . Sewer service is questionable , however , the Utilities Engineering Division advises that there could be grade problems . (See comments ) 3. The subject request is necessary to establish future lots that are consistent with the zoning and subdivision ordinances . This will allow for platting of the site and subsequent development for single family residences . 4 . Proposed future development will have to meet fire flow and access requirements as per Fire Department standards and comment. PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING : ARTHUR GUSTAFSON , File No : R-292-79 , PP-334-79 MAY 15 , 1979 PAGE FOUR 5 . Planning Department 'records indicate that no areawide rezone has occurred in this vicinity with exception of the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan in 1965 . 6 . Development in this general neighborhood area has previously encircled , but not included this site . Current development is generally commercial in nature near Sunset Blvd . NE or NE 4th and Union Avenue . This site , upon development , will complete the single family development of this neighborhood area . Additional comments of other departments are attached for consideration. M . DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS (Rezone ) Based upon the foregoing analysis , recommend approval of the rezone request from GS-1 to SR-1 . L . PLANNING DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS : (Preliminary Plat ) 1 . The proposed plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element which designates the 'site and surrounding area as single family residential . 2 . The applicant' s proposal is consistent with existing single family subdivisions to the north and east of the subject site . 3 . The proposed plat meets or exceeds all zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements relating to minimum lot size (7500 square feet) and dimensions with the following exception : The Building Division indicates that the setback lines illustrated would not meet the side yard setback requirement of 6 feet for 2-21/2 story structures as per Section 4-706-4(c ) of the Zoning Code 4. The water main on Union Avenue will have to be extended to Redmond Avenue NE and suitable sewer service supplied as per Utilities Engineering Division comment. Plans are required and the standard hook-up fees will be charged . (See comments ) 5 . The Engineering Division advises that storm water retention/ detention will be required as well as off-site improvements consisting of curbs , gutters , sidewalks , paving and storm drainage and street lighting on Union Avenue NE . 6 . Fire hydrants and water mains shall be installed per water engineering requirements . Hydrants and access shall be installed prior to any building construction . 7 . Traffic Engineering indicates that approximately 3 street lights will be required . 8. The Parks Department notes that the subject site is located in an area in which neighborhood park acquisition is complete. The existing Kiwanis Park (adjacent to the southerly boundary ) will be impacted by the new plat . (See comment) 9. After this plat application was received by the various departments and staff , it was .discovered .that Lot #4 is a pipe- stem lot. Due to this situation , application for an exception to the Subdivision Ordinance for a pipestem lot will be required (Section 9-1109) . The applicant has submitted the requesi which has been _advertised for public hearing on May 22 , 1979 . M . DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS (Preliminary Plat) Based upon the above analysis and the requirement for a pipestem PLANNING DEPARTMENT PRELIMINARY REPORT TO THE HEARING EXAMINER PUBLIC HEARING : ARTHUR GUSTAFSON , File No ; R-292-79 , PP-334-79 MAY 15 , 1979 PAGE FIVE exception , recommend continuance to May 22 , 1979 for consideration on that date of the pipestem lot exception application . Future approval may include but is not necessarily limited to the following conditions : 1 . Final Public Works Department approval of detailed utilities plans and payment of hook-up fees . 2 . Installation of off-site improvements and approval of storm drainage plans as per Engineering Division comments . 3 . Installation of fire hydrants , access , and water mains as per Fire Department approval . 4 . Installation of the street lights as per Traffic Engineering comments . 5 . Conformance to the required sideyard setbacks as noted in L-4. 6. Retention of the existing evergreen trees to the maximum extent feasible .

You should review all of the comments; however, the significant comments include the extension of N.E. 10th from your existing terminus west of your property easterly through the site to Union Avenue. Secondly, the plat boundaries should be corrected to include both of the parcels within your ownership to be divided by this plat.

The Act also requires that an EIS be prepared for all major actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to help the agencies involved determine whether or not a proposal is such a major action. Please answer the following questions as completely as you can with the information presently available to you. Where explanations of your answers are required, or where you believe an explanation would be helpful to government decision makers , include your explanation in the space provided, or use additional pages if necessary. You should include references to any reports or studies of which you are aware and which are rele- vant to the answers you provide. Complete answers to these questions now will help all agencies involved with your proposal to undertake the required environmental review with- out unnecessary delay. The following questions apply to your total proposal , not just to the license for which you are 'currently applying or the proposal for which approval is sought. Your answers should include the impacts which will be caused by your proposal when it is completed, even though completion may not occur until sometime in the future. This will allow all of the agencies which will be involved to complete their environmental review now, with- out duplicating paperwork in the future. NOTE: This is a standard form being used by all state and local agencies in the State of Washington for various types of proposals. Many of the questions may not apply to your proposal . If a question does not apply, just answer it "no" and continue on to the next question. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST FORM I . BACKGROUND 1. Name of Proponent , 'r. I) (1 ./IZ4Ff0/ ' 2.
