The RPBA may be located inside the building if a drainage outlet for the relief valve is provided and the location is pre-approved by the City Plan Reviewer and City Water Utility Department. Please coordinate with the City Water Utility plan review if you propose to locate the RPBA inside the building. • Water meters 2” in size or less will be installed by City forces and a water meter permit is required.

A conceptual utility plan will be required as part of the land use application for the subject development. 10. The development is subject to applicable water system development charges (SDC’s) and meter installation fees based on the number and size of the meters for domestic uses and for fire sprinkler use. The development is also subject to fees for water connections, cut and caps, and purity tests. Current fees can be found in the 2024 Development Fees Document on the City’s website. Fees that are current will be charged at the time of construction permit issuance. • The SDC fee for water is based on the size of the new domestic water to serve the project.

The property currently has a 6-inch PVC stub connecting to the main in the Shattuck Ave S, and is served by a side sewer (see the three side sewer cards on file for this property: Sewer Card 1, Sewer Card 2, Sewer Card 3). It is strongly recommended that the applicant CCTV’s the building side sewer to assess its quality. 6. A grease trap/interceptor is required for any commercial kitchen. 7. A conceptual utility plan will be required as part of the land use application for the subject development. 8. As the existing sewer service will be reused, no sewer system development charges are applicable, unless the water meter and service are upsized to a service greater than 1”. • The SDC fee for sewer is based on the size of the new domestic water to serve the project.

Since the remodel is limited to the interior, in accordance with RMC 4-6-060, no street frontage improvements or right of way dedication are required. However, if during the project review, exterior improvements are proposed, the project may be subject to frontage improvements and ROW dedication. 2. Because the proposal constitutes a change of use, the existing building will need to be updated to meet current ADA standards. Compliance with ADA standards must be shown on the building permit submittal. An accessible route of travel from the public right of way to the building entrance is required to be reviewed in conjunction with the permit approval for the project. 3. A traffic impact analysis is required when the estimated vehicular traffic generated from a proposed development exceeds 20 vehicles per hour in either the AM (6:00 – 9:00) or PM (3:00 – 6:00) peak periods. The analysis must include a discussion on traffic circulation to and from the site and onsite traffic circulation. The study shall include trip generation and trip distribution for the project for both AM and PM peak hours. 4. Paving and trench restoration shall comply with the City’s Trench Restoration and Overlay Requirements. 5. The development is subject to transportation impact fees. Fees will be charged based on the rate at the time of building permit issuance. • The 2024 transportation impact fee for fast casual dining (only walk-up window) is $68.10 per square foot. • Unless noted otherwise in the Fee Schedule, the 2024 transportation impact fee is $8,031.94 per net new PM peak Hour Vehicle Trip per PM Peak Hour Vehicle Trip.

The following comments on development and permitting issues are based on the pre-application submittals made to the City of Renton by the applicant and the codes in effect on the date of review. The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision- makers (e.g., Hearing Examiner, Community & Economic Development Administrator, Public Works Administrator, Planning Director, Development Services Director, Development Engineering Director, and City Council). Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code. The Development Regulations are available online at https://www.codepublishing.com/WA/Renton. Project Proposal: The subject property is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of S 2nd Street and Shattuck Avenue S and is addressed as 305 S 2nd St (APN 7841800085). The project site totals 14,616 square feet (0.34 acres) in area and is zoned Center Downtown (CD) and is within Urban Design District A. The project site is currently developed with an existing 13,046 square foot single-story building. The applicant proposes to utilize approximately 153 square feet of the existing barbershop tenant space for walkup window for the sale of tacos. According to City of Renton (COR) Maps, the site is mapped within a seismic hazard area and within a wellhead protection area, zone 2. Current Use: Currently the site is occupied with an existing multi-tenant building. The proposed tenant space is currently occupied as a barbershop. 1. Zoning /Land Use Designation, and Overlays: The property is located within the Commercial Mixed Use (CMU) land use designation, the Center Downtown (CD) zoning designation, and Urban Design District A. Commercial & Mixed Use designations are place areas with established commercial and office areas near principle arterials. Residential uses are allowed as part of mixed-use developments, and support new office and commercial development that is more intensive than what exists to create a vibrant district and increase employment opportunities. The intention of this designation is to transform strip commercial development into business districts through the intensification of uses and with cohesive site planning, landscaping, signage, circulation, parking, and the provision of public amenity features. The purpose of the Center Downtown Zone (CD) is to provide a mixed-use urban commercial center serving a regional market as well as high-density residential development. Uses include Taco Barber Page 2 of 7 April 4, 2024 a wide variety of retail sales, services, multi-family residential dwellings, and recreation and entertainment uses. The number of standalone walk-up window establishments shall be limited to three (3) locations in the City Center and five (5) locations citywide. Eating and drinking establishments may operate a walk-up window as an accessory use with an approved Administrative Conditional Use Permit. The proposal would need to be revised to incorporate an eating and drinking establishment with indoor dining as the primary use on the project site. A walk-up window as an accessory use to a barbershop would not be permitted. 2.
