1.0 INTRODUCTION
Evergreen Aquatic Resource Consultants, LLC ("Evergreen") is pleased to present this report summarizing our
wetland assessment work completed a 5.53-acre vacant parcel located east of Lake Washington Boulevard North in
Renton, Washington. This report presents an opinion as to the limits and the general characteristics of wetlands
identified within the subject site. In addition, a wetland buffer width analysis is included per the requirements of
Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-3-050.M.6.d. The findings presented in this report are consistent with those made
for the subject site under a previous development proposal, which was recently withdrawn.
We understand the development activities proposed for the subject site include the subdivision of the existing 5.53-
acre parcel into 13 single family residentially zoned lots, the construction of a new roadway extending east from Lake
Washington Boulevard to provide access to 12 of the lots (access to the remaining lot will be provided via Meadow
Avenue North), and the construction of other infrastructure associated with the overall plat improvements. As
proposed, no direct impacts to wetlands and associated standard width buffers will occur. We understand that this
report will be submitted with a buffer enhancement plan to the City of Renton to address specific development
regulations pertaining to the proposed subdivision of the existing parcel.
2.0 SCOPE OF WORK AND METHODOLOGY
2.1 Overview
This report summarizes the findings from: 1) a completed literature review of to wetlands, streams, and soil types
known to exist within and adjacent to the subject site; 2) a site investigation to formally delineate and characterize
wetlands identified within and adjacent to the subject site; and 3) a technical analysis of existing buffer conditions per
the criteria contained within RMC 4-3-050.M.6.d.
2.2 Literature Review
Prior to completing the site investigation, readily available literature and natural resource inventory maps were
reviewed to gather information on wetlands, streams, and soil types known to exist within and/or adjacent to the
subject site. These documents included, but were not limited to, the following:
• Readily available aerial photographs
• Soil survey maps for the local area
• National Wetland Inventory ("NWI") quadrangle maps for the local area
• Local critical area maps
2.3 Site Investigation
RMC 4-11-230 defines wetlands as:
"Areas that are inundated or saturated by surface water or groundwater at a frequency and
duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of
vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include
swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas. Wetlands do not include those artificial wetlands

intentionally created from nonwetland sites, including, but not limited to, irrigation and drainage
ditches, grass-lined swales, canals, detention facilities, wastewater treatment facilities, farm ponds,
and landscape amenities, or those wetlands created after July 1, 1990, that were unintentionally
created as a result of the construction of a road, street, or highway. Wetlands include artificial
wetlands created from nonwetland areas to mitigate the conversion of wetlands."
RMC 4-3-050.MA.a requires wetlands be identified and delineated per the criteria and methodologies contained
within the Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (Washington State Department of
Ecology 1997). The classification criteria for wetlands are specified in RMC 4-3-050.M.1.a.
Site investigation work was completed on October 2, 2006 and October 3, 2006 to formally delineate and
characterize wetlands located within the subject site using the methodologies required by the City of Renton.
Additional site investigation work was completed on May 30, 2007 to amend the results of the October 2006 site
investigation. Where delineated, the limits of wetlands were marked on-site using sequentially numbered pink
flagging labeled "Wetland Delineation". Non-random, representative sample plots were established in on-site
wetland and upland (non-wetland) areas to formally document vegetation, hydrology, and soil characteristics.
Representative sample plot locations were marked on-site using sequentially numbered blue fluorescent flagging.
A figure showing the location of the wetlands delineated within the subject site is included in Appendix A. Routine
wetland determination data forms used to document data collected within established sample plots are included in
Appendix B.
2.4 Wetland Buffer Width Analysis
Following the wetland delineation work, each delineated wetland and associated buffer was evaluated using the
criteria included in RMC 4-3-050.M.6.d to determine if increased buffer widths are warranted based on the presence
of unique habitat characteristics and/or the proposed site development activities.
3.0 RESULTS
3.1 Literature Review
The Soil Survey of King County Area, Washington (Snyder et al. 1973) maps the following soils within the subject
site:
• Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6% to 15% slopes (AgC):
A moderately well drained soil formed under conifers in glacial deposits; soil typically comprises a very dark
brown, dark brown, and dark grayish-brown gravelly sandy loam approximately 27 inches thick; a weakly
consolidated to strongly consolidated substratum exists at a depth of 24 to 40 inches; runoff is medium and
erosion hazard is severe.
May 14, 2008
Page 2
Wetland Assessment Report
Plat of Lake Washington View Estates
• Indianola loamy fine sand, 4 to 15 percent slopes (InC):
A somewhat excessively drained soil that is formed under conifers in sandy, recessional, stratified glacial
drift; soil typically comprises a brown, dark yellowish-brown, and light olive brown loamy fine sand;
permeability is rapid, runoff is slow to medium, and the erosion hazard is slight to moderate.
• Norma sandy loam (No):
A poorly drained soil formed in alluvium under sedges (Carex spp.), grass, conifers, and hardwoods; soil
typically comprises a black sandy loam overlying a dark grayish-brown and dark-gray sandy loam;
permeability is moderately rapid, runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is slight.
Alderwood soils are mapped as occurring in the southwest corner of the subject site, Indianola soils area mapped as
occurring in the central and southeast portion of the subject site, and Norma soils are mapped in the northern portion
of the subject site. Alderwood and Indianola soils are generally not considered hydric soils; however, Norma soils
are classified locally and nationally as hydric soils (USDA 2001; USDA 1991).
Wetlands/Streams
The subject site is located within the South Lake Washington Sub-Basin of Water Resource Inventory Area (WRIA)
08 -Lake Washington Basin. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) map for the local area identifies a riverine
lower perennial unconsolidated bottom permanently flooded (R2UBH) wetland (May Creek: 08-0282) located within
the subject site (United States Fish and Wildlife Service 1988). The City of Renton's wetland inventory map does not
show wetlands as occurring within and/or immediately adjacent to the subject site (RMC Figure 4-3-05005).
3.2 Site Investigation
Overview
Based on our evaluation of on-site conditions, it is our opinion that three wetlands ("Wetland 1"; "Wetland 2"; and
"Wetland 3") exist within the subject site. The location of delineated wetlands is shown in Appendix A. The flagging
scheme used to mark the on-site limits of the delineated wetlands as well as the location of formal sample plots is
presented in Table 1.

Wetland determinations made during the site investigations were based on a dominance by hydrophytic vegetation
and the presence of wetland hydrology and hydric soil field indicators in the local area. In some cases, primary
indicators of wetland hydrology were not present. Where absent, sufficient secondary indicators of wetland
hydrology were observed. The absence of primary wetland hydrology indicators is likely due to the time of year
during which the site investigation work was completed.
Wetland 1
Measuring 6,093 sf (0.14-acre) in total area, Wetland 1 is a palustrine scrub-shrub wetland located within a
depressional landform in the northwest comer of the subject site. Wetland 1 extends minimally off-site into Lake
Washington Boulevard North right of way. A ditch located along the east side of Lake Washington Boulevard North
directs stormwater runoff to Wetland 1. An outlet from Wetland 1 was not observed.
Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus) and Sitka willow (Salix sitchensis) are the dominant plant species that
occur within Wetland 1, while red alder (Alnus rubra), Pacific willow (S. lucida ssp lasiandra), sword fern (Polystichum
munitum), lady fern (Athyrium filix-femina), and youth-on-age (Tolmiea menziesil) are common subdominant plant
species. Soils within Wetland 1 are generally a low-chroma sandy silt loam overlying a low-chroma sand to silt loam
with distinct to prominent redoximorphic features present within lower soil horizons. Field indicators of wetland
hydrology observed within Wetland 1 at the time of the site investigation included sediment deposits and water
staining on vegetation and detritus. Supporting wetland hydrology for Wetland 1 appears to be derived primarily from
stormwater runoff originating from Lake Washington Boulevard North.
Wetland 2
Measuring 3,831 sf (0.09-acre) in total on-site area, Wetland 2 is a palustrine scrub-shrub wetland located within a
sloping landform in the south-central portion of the subject site. Wetland 2 appears to extend off-site to the south.
Mounds of soil frequently occur and an abandoned roadbed is present within Wetland 2. An inlet to Wetland 2 was
not observed. Wetland 2 drains to Wetland 3 via a short segment of Class 4 stream.
Himalayan blackberry is the dominant plant species that occurs within Wetland 2, while sword fern and lady fern are
common subdominant species. Soils within Wetland 2 are generally a low-chroma sandy silt loam overlying a dark
brown to brown to dark olive brown sandy silt loam. Distinct to prominent redoximorphic features are present within
lower soil horizons. Field indicators of wetland hydrology observed within Wetland 2 at the time of the site
investigation included saturation of surface soils and wetland drainage patterns. Supporting wetland hydrology
appears to be derived primarily from shallow groundwater within the local area.
Wetland 3
Measuring 23,756 sf (O.55-acre) in on-site area, Wetland 3 is a palustrine forested wetland located within a sloping
landform in the eastern portion of the subject site. Wetland 3 extends off-site to the south and is contiguous with a
Class 3 stream. An outlet from Wetland 3 was not observed.
Red alder, salmonberry (R. spectabilis), and Himalayan blackberry are dominant plant species that occur within on-
site portions of Wetland 3, while lady fern, skunk cabbage (Lysichiton american us) , reed canarygrass (Phalaris
arundinacea), bittersweet nightshade (Solanum dulcamara), youth-on-age, and stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) are
common subdominant species. Non-native ivy (Hedera sp.) appears to be the dominant plant species within the off-
site portions of Wetland 3. Soils within on-site portions of Wetland 3 were generally a low-chroma sand overlying a
low chroma silt loam. Field indicators of wetland hydrology observed within Wetland 3 at the time of the site
investigation included shallow inundation, saturation of surface soils, and wetland drainage patterns.

Plat of Lake Washington View Estates
Upland areas within the subject site generally support a forested canopy dominated by black cottonwood and red
alder over a shrub community comprised primarily of Himalayan blackberry. Subdominant species observed within
upland areas of the subject site include big leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum), western redcedar (Thuja plicata),
western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla), vine maple (A. circinatum), beaked hazelnut (Cory/us com uta) , Indian plum
(Oem/eria cerasiformis), sword fern, and red elderberry (Sambucus racemosa). Soils within upland areas were
generally a very dark grayish brown to dark brown to brown to olive brown sandy silt loam. Field indicators of
wetland hydrology were not observed within on-site upland areas at the time of the site investigation.
Regulatory Discussion
Development activities within the subject site fall under the local jurisdiction of the City of Renton. Development
standards and requirements related to wetlands are subject to the policies included in RMC 4-3-050.M.
RMC 4-3-050.M.1.a categorizes wetlands based on characteristics such as the presence of listed animal and plant
species and/or the presence of associated essential habitat, the overall size of the wetland, the structure and
diversity of the wetland plant community, the presence of permanent open water, and past disturbances to the
wetland. Preliminary wetland classifications and standard buffer widths for each wetland are presented in Table 2.
Although the purpose of this study was to assess site conditions relative to RMC development regulations, wetlands
identified in this report may also be regulated by the US Army Corps of Engineers under Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act ("CWA") as well as the Washington State Department of Ecology under Section 401 of the CWA, the
Washington "State Water Pollution Control Act", and/or the "Washington State Shoreline Management Act". Should
excavation and/or filling be proposed within anyon-site wetland, the Corps and Ecology should be consulted directly
regarding the need for any notification and permits for the excavation and/or filling work.
3.3 Wetland Buffer Width Analysis
RMC 4-3-050.M.6.d requires that when development activities are proposed adjacent to wetlands, an assessment
shall be made to determine if an increase to the standard wetland buffer width is warranted to protect existing
wetland functions and values. The following assessment includes analysis of site conditions based on data collected
during the site investigations as well as design information for the proposed site development activities available at
the time of report preparation.
Criterion: Use of Wetland by Federal-or State-Listed Species, Presence of Essential Habitat, or
Presence of Nesting/Resting Sites
Federal or State listed species are not known to occur within on-site wetlands or buffers. Additionally, the on-site
wetlands are not known to support "essential habitat" or any nesting/resting sites utilized by Federal or State listed
species.

Criterion: Subject Site (Or Nearby Lands) Are Susceptible to Severe Erosion and Erosion Control
Measures will not Effectively Prevent Adverse Wetland Impacts
Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6 to 15 percent slopes (AgC), Indianola loamy fine sand ,4 to 15 percent slopes
(InC), and Norma sandy loam (No) are the soil types mapped as occurring within the subject site. The USDA erosion
potential ratings for these soils are as follows:
• Alderwood gravelly sandy loam: severe
• Indianola loamy fine sand: slight to moderate
• Norma silt loam: slight
Erosion hazard areas are not mapped by the City of Renton as occurring within the subject site (City of Renton
2008).
Alderwood soils are mapped as occurring upslope from Wetland 1; however, temporary and permanent erosion and
sediment control (ESC) best management practices (BMPs) incorporated into the project will effectively prevent
adverse impacts to Wetland 1. Temporary BMPs during construction will include source control such as the
temporary mulching, seeding, or covering of disturbed soils as well as treatment facilities, such as temporary
sediment ponds to settle sediments from runoff prior to discharge from those portions of the site under construction.
Permanent stormwater control will be designed per the applicable City of Renton detention and treatment
requirements.
Criterion: Project Site (Or Nearby Lands) Has Slopes Greater Than 15% or Minimal Vegetative Cover
and Conditions Cannot be Restored to Prevent Adverse Wetland Impacts
Steep slope areas are located within the eastern portion of the subject site and will not be subject to disturbance as
part of the proposed site development activities. The majority of the subject site in and adjacent to the proposed site
development activities has slopes generally less than 15 percent.
Criterion: Use of Wetland by Water-Dependent Wildlife Species
Wetland-dependent species were not observed within on-site wetlands at the time of the site investigation work. On-
site wetlands may provide seasonal foraging opportunities and escape cover for small mammals and passerine birds
and may also lie within the home range of larger mammals; however, the on-site wetlands are not known to and do
not appear to provide habitat unique to the subject site and/or the local vicinity. In addition, habitat functions provided
by on-site wetlands are low due to the existing plant community characteristics (a dominance by non-native species),
a lack of habitat structures such as snags, downed wood debris, etc., and proximity of on-site wetlands to human
development.
Table 2 lists the ten amphibian species most common to western Washington. Based on species-specific habitat
requirements, Pacific treefrog (Hy/a regil/a) and red-legged frog (Rana aurora) would be the most likely to use on-site
wetlands. The hydrologic regimes of on-site wetlands is likely too short or otherwise insufficient to provide breeding
and rearing opportunities for all the amphibians listed, including Pacific treefrog and red-legged frog. Use of on-site
wetlands by amphibians, if any, would be limited to foraging habitat.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS
Based on review of available literature, analysis of on-site conditions, and review of RMC 4-3-050.M, the following
preliminary conclusions have been developed:
• Three wetlands exist within the subject site.
• Wetland 1 is located in the northwest corner of the subject site and was preliminarily classified as a
Category 3 wetland. A 25-foot standard width buffer would be required from the delineated limits of Wetland
1.
• Wetland 2 is located in the central portion of the subject site and is connected to Wetland 3 via a small
segment of a Class 4 stream. Wetland 2 was preliminarily classified as a Category 3 wetland. A 25-foot
standard width buffer would be required from the delineated limits of Wetland 2.
• Wetland 3 is located in the central portion of the subject site downgradient from Wetland 2 and was
preliminarily classified as a Category 2 wetland. A 50-foot standard width buffer would be required from the
delineated limits of Wetland 3.
• The short stream segment connecting Wetland 2 and Wetland 3 was classified as a Class 4 stream by the
City of Renton. The 35-foot standard width buffer from the stream is located entirely within the standard
width buffers for Wetland 2 and Wetland 3.
• Based on our analysis of site conditions and the criteria contained within RMC 4-3-050.M.6.d, existing site
conditions and/or the proposed site development activities do not appear to present unique characteristics
that warrant increased wetland buffer widths.
• Per the requirements of RMC 4-3-050.M.6.a.iii, restoration of the portions of the Wetland 1 and Wetland 2
buffers located adjacent to the proposed site development activities would be required to maintain standard
buffer widths.

5.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on our understanding of your needs at this time, the following is recommended:
1. Submit this assessment to the City of Renton to confirm the findings and conclusions presented herein.
2. Site planning efforts should concentrate development activities within the westem portions of the subject site
to maximize the distance between site development activities and critical areas.
3. Retain a qualified professional to prepare a wetland buffer enhancement plan for those portions of the
Wetland 1 and Wetland 2 buffer located adjacent to the proposed site development activities. Major
components of the plan should include removal of non-native noxious weed species and the installation of
native shrubs and trees at a density to enhance existing buffer conditions.
We trust that this letter meets your present needs. Please contact us should you have any questions regarding the
information presented in this assessment and/or if you require additional assistance with this project.

Re: Cultura l Re sources Review for the May Creek Deve lopment, King County, Washington
Mr . Hanson,
Per yo ur req uest, Northwes t Archaeological Associates, Inc (NWAA) has revi ewed the above
refe renced project for its po tential to affect cultural resources. The review consisted of
checking site and survey records at the Washington State Department of Archaeology a nd
Historic Preservation (DAHP); King County Historic Preserv a tion Office; Renton Historical
Museum; and University of Washington Libraries . NWAA also reviewed early maps for roads,
trails, structures and changes to the natural environment. The following sections summarize
the natural a nd cultural history of area and concludes with a probability estimate for cultural
res ources within the project area and recommendations for identifying potential resource s.
Project Description and Location
The proposed May Creek Development (parcel 3224059081) will be a single-family residential
development located in north Kennydale approximately two miles north of Rento n, W ashi ngton
in Section 32 of T . 24N., R. 5E., Willamette Meridian (Figure 1). The parcel consists of five
acres loca ted near the outlet of May Creek al ong th e ea st shore of Lake Washington be tween 1-
405 a nd Lake W as hington Boulevard (Figure 2). The proposed deve lopment will consist of 10
to 12 lots that will be constructed along the hillside immediately south of May Creek . A 50-foot
buffer will be maintained along May Creek and designated wetlands will be avoided d uring
co nstruction. The property north of May C reek (pa rcel 3224059043) will be left as open space.
Environmental and Cultural Background
While most of the parcel (forested hillside) has probably remained relatively unchanged for
some time, the May Creek delta a nd vicin ity has experienced profound changes during the pre-
contact, ethnogra phic a nd historic time periods. Prior to the co mplet ion of the Lake
Washington Ship Canal in 1916 , the level of Lake Washington was ap proximately nine-feet
higher than it is today . The mea n water level of La ke Washington also flu ctu ated by as much
as seven fe e t over time due to changes in hydrology and tectonic events that affected the lake's
o utflow near Ren ton (Chrzastowski 1983). Earthquakes during the past 70 00 ye ars have
triggered underwater slumping, landslides , ground el evation changes, and tsu na mis .

Cultuml Resoun;es Review for the May Creek Development 4
A massive earthquake on the Seattle Fault 1100 years ago caused a forested hillside on the
southeast corner of Mercer Island to slide into Lake Washington (Atwater and Moore 1992).
This landslide, located just west of the project area, likely produced large waves that washed
over the May Creek delta. Changes to Lake Washington's shoreline are illustrated in an early
newspaper article written for the Town Crier. Carter (1917) stated that after Lake Washington
was lowered, a muddy delta was exposed at the mouth of May Creek. Carter reported that the
previously submerged landform was covered with tree stumps worn smooth to the ground level.
Carter also noted evidence of ancient campfires, or cooking features along the former shoreline
evidenced by piles of rocks "cracked and broken by fire" in association with "charcoal in a
perfect state of preservation."
The project is within the traditional territory of the Duwamish, a Whulshootseed-speaking
people who occupied villages along Elliot Bay, Salmon Bay, Lake Washington and along the
Duwamish, Black and Cedar rivers. Duwamish settlements were loosely connected through
social and political alliances. The Duwamish also maintained close relations with neighboring
groups including the Snoqualmie, Suquamish, Puyallup and people living on the upper Green
and White rivers (Ballard 1951; Smith 1940). The Xa1co'abc, or "Lake Indians' maintained a
separate identity from the Duwamish-proper, whose primary villages were located along the
Black and Cedar rivers in Renton (Ballard 1929; Smith 1940).
The Lake-Duwamish village Cbaf't', a permanent settlement with at least two houses, was
located at the mouth of May Creek immediately north of the project area. The Whulshootseed
place name is roughly translated to "place where things are dried," or "dry house." Duwamish
informants in the early 20~ century indicated that great quantities of red fish were taken at this
point (Waterman ca. 1920). The term "red fish" is a reference to sockeye salmon taken
annually at this spot, probably by means of traps and weirs. The harvested fish were cooked
and dried on racks for immediate consumption, or prepared for winter storage in cedar plank
smokehouses (Smith 1940). The marshy setting at May Creek would also have been ideal
conditions for wapato, or Indian potato, an important food resource of the Duwamish and other
indigenous groups.
The Lake Indians were considered part of the larger Duwamish Tribe by the U.S. Government
and were subsequently assigned to live on the Port Madison Indian Reservation as a condition
of the Point Elliot Treaty of 1855 (Ruby and Brown 1992). The inhabitants of Cbaf't" probably
occupied their village for several years after 1855, however the pressure from Indian agents to
relocate to reservations combined with the influx of Euroamerican settlers prompted Cbaf'f' to
be abandoned sometime before 1864. U.S. Government surveys in 1864 and 1865 recorded
an Indian Village on the Black River in Renton, however no village is recorded at May Creek,
suggesting the inhabitants of Cbaft' had moved to reservations, or had settled elsewhere by
this time.
In 1875 James and Clarissa Colman purchased a 160-acre homestead bisected by May Creek
from Jeremiah Sullivan, who had acquired the property from the U.S. government several years
earlier (Fawcett 1979; McDonald 1979). The Colman's built a house where they lived with their
four children until his death in 1886 (McDonald 1979). Clarissa maintained ownership of the
property after James' death, however the property remained unused for several years. The
Clarissa Colman diaries make several references to Indians hunting, fishing and canoeing in
the vicinity of May Creek suggesting the area remained an important destination for the local
indigenous population (Coleman 1890). In 1903 the Northern Pacific Railroad acquired a right-
of-way through the Colman property and two years later constructed a spur line connecting the
town of Woodinville with Renton. Five stations were constructed along the spur line including

one at May Creek (Bowden et al. 1997). Beginning in 1908 the Colman's began selling off
parts of the family homestead including parcels that would eventually become the Reilly Tar and
Chemical Corporation, Sound Timber Company and the Barbee Mill. Residential lots were also
sold including the Garden of Eden Tracts, which later became Kennydale (McDonald 1979;
Slauson 1976).
Historic Map Review
A review of historic and contemporary maps show significant changes to the lower May Creek
vicinity including an expanded delta. changing stream course. and increasing development.
The first government survey of the area in 1864-1865 recorded an Indian trail connecting the
mouth of Honey Dew Creek (May Creek) to the confluence of the Cedar and Black River in
Renton (another Duwamish village site) (Figure 3). The trail was part of a larger system that
connected the Duwamish with interior Salish and Sahaptin-speaking peoples of the Plateau.
The 1902 Geodetic Survey map shows a large marsh at the mouth of May Creek and a
homestead including two buildings. plowed fields and a dock within and adjacent to the project
area (Figure 4). It is unclear if this is the original Colman homestead. The 1920 Army Corps of
Engineers map shows that the May Creek delta and shoreline expanded by 300 to 600 feet
after the lake was lowered in 1916. Historic maps produced between 1864 and 1920 show May
Creek meandering within 200 feet of its historic channel. however by ca. 1940. the creek had
been channelized 500 feet to 1000 feet south of its historic course.

Cutrural Re sources Review for the May Creek Development
Previous Archaeological Investigations
Be cause most property along Lake Washington is privately owned . few cultura l resources
studies have been conducted along the lake. Consequently. no pre-contact archaeo logical site
has ever been recorded along Lake Washington . despite numerous ethnographic and hi storic
references to Duwamish Indian villages along the shoreline. Several pre-contact archaeological
sites have been recorded in the lown of Renton . three miles south of the project . spanning the
time period between ca. 1860 and 400 AD (Chatters 1981. 1988; Lewarch 2006). Severa l
anecdotal accounts of Native American a rtifacts have been noted within one-mile of the project
including a report of two red-jasper projectile points found on the beach o n the southeast side
of Mercer Island (King County 1978). Additionally. a local resident stated that Native American
artifacts. includ ing glass trade beads . were found near May Creek during construction of 1-405
and that the University of Washington (UW) investigated the discovery (Paul Dravland . personal
co mmunication 2007). An inquiry with the UW confirmed that a collection of glass beads . a
butto n and several other items were collected from a burial between Renton and Bellevue along
Highway 2-A (now 1-405) during construction . The items were collected by a local resident and
subsequently g iven to Douglas Osbourne at the Burke Museum (Laura Phillips . personal
communication 2007).
Several archaeological surveys have been conducted within approximately one-mile of the
project. however none have identified significant cultural resources . Lorenz (1976) conducted a
survey for a sanitary sewer line extension along May Creek which terminated at the junction of
May Creek and 1-405. Archaeological an d Historical Services conducted two surveys in the
area including a proposed park-and-ride in northeast Renton (Robinson 1983) and a survey of
SR 900 in the upper May Creek Valley (Robinson 1990). Murphy (2003) monitored a 2000 foot-
long stormwater pipeline along Lake Washington located just north of the project area. however
no significant c ultural material was observed .

Monitoring
The closest and most comp rehensi ve cultural resources assessment was conducted
immediately north of the cu rrent project area. Bowden et al. (1997) conducted a survey for the
JAG development. a proposed 60-acre mixed-use complex located im mediately north and west
of the project on properties including the former Barbee Mill . Pan Abode Cedar Homes . Port
Quendal Log Yard and Baxter Property . At the time of the survey. approximately 90% of the
JAG development project area was not available for inspection as it was either paved . or
contained existing structures . The remaining 10% of the property was shovel tested to depths
reaching approximately one-meter (th ree feet). Fill . ranging between 30-90 cm (1-3 feet) thick .
was encou ntered in 10 of the 12 excavated shovel probes and four of the probes were
term in ated before native sediment was encountered. A single fire-modified rock was
encountered in a probe excavated on the Pan Abode Cedar Homes property located

approxi mately 500 north of the project and represents the only evidence of Native Ameri can
activity encountered during the investigation (Bowden et al. 199 7).
Field Reconnaissance
Fi eld reconnaissance was conducted on February 26m • 2007 . The intent of the fie ld vi sit was to
gage the potential for cultural resources within the project area. At the time of the survey the
pa rce l was heavily overgrown with Himalayan blackberry. however several paths were cleared
through the vegetation by surveyors hired by the project proponent. No pre-contact . or historic
cultural resource s were observed during the brief field visit. however no subsurfa ce testing was
employed.
The project area is dominated by gently sloping to steeply sloping topography with some level
areas adjacent to May Creek. Channelization of May Creek is evident from a large . gravel
spoils pile along the southern margin of the creek . The near-surface sediments were observed
in the stream bank. tree tips . and in rodent burrows and consist of approximately 30 cm (12 -
i nches) of coarse sand overlying dense gravels . Cottonwood and red alder dominate the creek
margin while some cedar. fir. and big-leaf maple occur along the hillside . The understory is
dominated by Himalayan blackberry. sword fern. salmonberry . and tall grass (Figure 5). Skunk
cabbage was observed with in designated wetlands in the central and eastern portions of the
property . A small clearing (area void of large trees) was observed in the western half of the
parcel and corresponds to the location of a building shown on a 1902 map . Three very old fruit
trees were observed just west of the clearing supporting map references indicating the project
parcel encompasses part of an old homestead-possibly the Colman homestead.

Conclusions and Recommendations
The proposed May Creek Development project area has a moderate to high probability for pre-
contact cultural resources based on the natural setting and proximity to a Native American
village site. The western half of the project has the highest potential for pre-contact cultural
resources based on the gentle slope and proximity to Lake Washington. The sloping landform
would not have been ideal for long-term habitation, however activity areas associated with the
former village of COOl'r could be present. Activity areas could be represented by
concentrations of fire-modified rock and charcoal-stained sediments. Isolated artifacts, or
concentrations of artifacts could also be present and may include projectile points, edge
modified cobbles and flakes, lithic waste flakes and adze blade fragments. Native American
burials are also possible based on the proximity to coofr and because the area may have
offered the closest high-ground. The project area also has a high probability for historic cultural
resources based on earty settlement and historic maps showing buildings within and adjacent to
the parcel. Expectations for historic cultural resources within the project parcel include refuse
pits and privy middens (abandoned outhouses). These features can contain historic artifact
assemblages that are considered significant under Federal criteria and can contribute to the
understanding of historic settlement in the region.
Based on the high probability for both pre-contact and historic cultural resources it is strongly
recommended that a cultural resources assessment be conducted prior to construction. The
most efficient and cost-effective means of identifying significant cultural resources would be
through mechanical exploration of western half of the project. Please be advised that cultural
resources are protected under the Archaeological Sites and Resources Act [RCW 27.53] which
prohibits excavating or disturbing prehistoric and historic archaeological sites on public or
private land and the Indian Graves and Records Act [RCW 27.44] which prohibits destroying
American Indian graves and provides that inadvertent disturbance through construction or other
activity requires re-interment under supervision of the appropriate Indian tribe.
I hope this letter sufficiently addresses your needs for determining the potential for cultural
resources within the proposed May Creek Development project area. Please do not hesitate to
contact me or Chris Miss with any questions or concems regarding this letter, or the
recommendations made herein.
Sincerely,
/7k;/i~'

Re: Cultural Resources Review for the May Creek Development, King County, Washington
Mr. Hanson,
Per your request, Northwest Archaeological Associates, Inc (NWAA) has reviewed the above
referenced project for its potential to affect cultural resources. The review consisted of
checking site and survey records at the Washington State Department of Archaeology and
Historic Preservation (DAHP); King County Historic Preservation Office; Renton Historical
Museum; and University of Washington Libraries. NWAA also reviewed early maps for roads,
trails, structures and changes to the natural environment. The following sections summarize
the natural and cultural history of area and concludes with a probability estimate for cultural
resources within the project area and recommendations for identifying potential resources.
Project Description and Location
The proposed May Creek Development (parcel 3224059081) will be a single-family residential
development located in north Kennydale approximately two miles north of Renton, Washington
in Section 32 of T. 24N., R. 5E., Willamelte Meridian (Figure 1). The parcel consists of five
acres located near the outlet of May Creek along the east shore of Lake Washington between 1-
405 and Lake Washington Boulevard (Figure 2). The proposed development will consist of 10
to 12 lots that will be constructed along the hillside immediately south of May Creek. A 50-foot
buffer will be maintained along May Creek and deSignated wetlands will be avoided during
construction. The property north of May Creek (parcel 3224059043) will be left as open space.
Environmental and Cultural Background
While most of the parcel (forested hillside) has probably remained relatively unchanged for
some time, the May Creek delta and vicinity has experienced profound changes during the pre-
contact, ethnographic and historic time periods. Prior to the completion of the Lake
Washington Ship Canal in 1916, the level of Lake Washington was approximately nine-feet
higher than it is today. The mean water level of Lake Washington also fluctuated by as much
as seven feet over time due to changes in hydrology and tectonic events that affected the lake's
outflow near Renton (Chrzastowski 1983). Earthquakes during the past 7000 years have
triggered underwater slumping, landslides, ground elevation changes, and tsunamis.

Cultural Resources Review for the May Creek Development 4
A massive earthquake on the Seattle Fault 1100 years ago caused a forested hillside on the
southeast corner of Mercer Island to slide into Lake Washington (Atwater and Moore 1992).
This landslide, located just west of the project area, likely produced large waves that washed
over the May Creek delta. Changes to Lake Washington's shoreline are illustrated in an early
newspaper article written for the Town Crier. Carter (1917) stated that after Lake Washington
was lowered, a muddy delta was exposed at the mouth of May Creek. Carter reported that the
previously submerged landform was covered with tree stumps worn smooth to the ground level.
Carter also noted evidence of ancient campfires, or cooking features along the former shoreline
evidenced by piles of rocks "cracked and broken by fire" in association with "charcoal in a
perfect state of preservation."
The project is within the traditional territory of the Duwamish, a Whulshootseed-speaking
people who occupied villages along Elliot Bay, Salmon Bay, Lake Washington and along the
Duwamish, Black and Cedar rivers. Duwamish settlements were loosely connected through
social and political alliances. The Duwamish also maintained close relations with neighboring
groups including the Snoqualmie, Suquamish, Puyallup and people living on the upper Green
and White rivers (Ballard 1951; Smith 1940). The XaYco'abc, or "Lake Indians' maintained a
separate identity from the Duwamish-proper, whose primary villages were located along the
Black and Cedar rivers in Renton (Ballard 1929; Smith 1940).
The Lake-Duwamish village Cbaf'f', a permanent settlement with at least two houses, was
located at the mouth of May Creek immediately north of the project area. The Whulshootseed
place name is roughly translated to "place where things are dried,' or "dry house.' Duwamish
informants in the early 20" century indicated that great quantities of red fish were taken at this
point (Waterman ca. 1920). The term "red fish" is a reference to sockeye salmon taken
annually at this spot, probably by means of traps and weirs. The harvested fish were cooked
and dried on racks for immediate consumption, or prepared for winter storage in cedar plank
smokehouses (Smith 1940). The marshy setting at May Creek would also have been ideal
conditions for wapato, or Indian potato, an important food resource of the Duwamish and other
indigenous groups.
The Lake Indians were considered part of the larger Duwamish Tribe by the U.S. Government
and were subsequently assigned to live on the Port Madison Indian Reservation as a condition
of the Point Elliot Treaty of 1855 (Ruby and Brown 1992). The inhabitants of Cbaf'f' probably
occupied their village for several years after 1855, however the pressure from Indian agents to
relocate to reservations combined with the influx of Euroamerican settlers prompted Cbaf'r to
be abandoned sometime before 1864. U.S. Government surveys in 1864 and 1865 recorded
an Indian Village on the Black River in Renton, however no village is recorded at May Creek,
suggesting the inhabitants of Cbal'f' had moved to reservations, or had settled elsewhere by
this time.
In 1875 James and Clarissa Colman purchased a 160-acre homestead bisected by May Creek
from Jeremiah Sullivan, who had acquired the property from the U.S. government several years
earlier (Fawcett 1979; McDonald 1979). The Colman's built a house where they lived with their
four children until his death in 1886 (McDonald 1979). Clarissa maintained ownership of the
property after James' death, however the property remained unused for several years. The
Clarissa Colman diaries make several references to Indians hunting, fishing and canoeing in
the vicinity of May Creek suggesting the area remained an important destination for the local
indigenous population (Coleman 1890). In 1903 the Northern Pacific Railroad acquired a right-
of-way through the Colman property and two years later constructed a spur line connecting the
town of Woodinville with Renton. Five stations were constructed along the spur line including

one at May Creek (Bowden et al. 1997). Beginning in 1908 the Colman's began selling off
parts of the family homestead including parcels that would eventually become the Reilly Tar and
Chemical Corporation, Sound Timber Company and the Barbee Mill. Residential lots were also
sold including the Garden of Eden Tracts, which later became Kennydale (McDonald 1979;
Slauson 1976).
Historic Map Review
A review of historic and contemporary maps show significant changes to the lower May Creek
vicinity including an expanded delta, changing stream course, and increasing development.
The first govemment survey of the area in 1864-1865 recorded an Indian trail connecting the
mouth of Honey Dew Creek (May Creek) to the confluence of the Cedar and Black River in
Renton (another Duwamish village site) (Figure 3). The trail was part of a larger system that
connected the Duwamish with interior Salish and Sahaptin-speaking peoples of the Plateau.
The 1902 Geodetic Survey map shows a large marsh at the mouth of May Creek and a
homestead including two buildings, plowed fields and a dock within and adjacent to the project
area (Figure 4). It is unclear if this is the original Colman homestead. The 1920 Army Corps of
Engineers map shows that the May Creek delta and shoreline expanded by 300 to 600 feet
after the lake was lowered in 1916. Historic maps produced between 1864 and 1920 show May
Creek meandering within 200 feet of its historic channel, however by ca. 1940, the creek had
been channelized 500 feet to 1000 feet south of its historic course.

Cultuml Resources Review for the May Creek Development
Previous Archaeological Investigations
Because most property along Lake Washington is privately owned, few cultural resources
studies have been conducted along the lake. Consequently, no pre-contact archaeological site
has ever been recorded along Lake Washington, despite numerous ethnographic and historic
references to Duwamish Indian villages along the shoreline. Several pre-contact archaeological
sites have been recorded in the town of Renton, three miles south of the project, spanning the
time period between ca. 1860 and 400 AD (Chatters 1981, 1988; Lewarch 2006). Several
anecdotal accounts of Native American artifacts have been noted within one-mile of the project
including a report of two red-jasper projectile points found on the beach on the southeast side
of Mercer Island (King County 1978). Additionally, a local resident stated that Native American
artifacts, including glass trade beads, were found near May Creek during construction of 1-405
and that the University of Washington (UW) investigated the discovery (Paul Draviand, personal
communication 2007). An inquiry with the UW confirmed that a collection of glass beads, a
button and several other items were collected from a burial between Renton and Bellevue along
Highway 2-A (now 1-405) during construction. The items were collected by a local resident and
subsequently given to Douglas Osbourne at the Burke Museum (Laura Phillips, personal
communication 2007).
Several archaeological surveys have been conducted within approximately one-mile of the
project, however none have identified significant cultural resources. Lorenz (1976) conducted a
survey for a sanitary sewer line extension along May Creek which terminated at the junction of
May Creek and 1-405. Archaeological and HistOrical Services conducted two surveys in the
area including a proposed park-and-ride in northeast Renton (Robinson 1983) and a survey of
SR 900 in the upper May Creek Valley (Robinson 1990). Murphy (2003) monitored a 2000 foot-
long stormwater pipeline along Lake Washington located just north of the project area, however
no significant cultural material was observed.

The closest and most comprehensive cultural resources assessment was conducted
immediately north of the current project area. Bowden et at. (1997) conducted a survey for the
JAG development, a proposed 60-acre mixed-use complex located immediately north and west
of the project on properties including the former Barbee Miff, Pan Abode Cedar Homes, Port
Quendal Log Yard and Baxter Property. At the time of the survey, approximately 90% of the
JAG development project area was not available for inspection as it was either paved, or
contained existing structures. The remaining 10% of the property was shovel tested to depths
reaching approximately one-meter (three feet). Fill, ranging between 30-90 cm (1-3 feet) thick,
was encountered in 10 of the 12 excavated shovel probes and four of the probes were
terminated before native sediment was encountered. A single fire-modified rock was
encountered in a probe excavated on the Pan Abode Cedar Homes property located

approximately 500 north of the project and represents the only evidence of Native American
activity encountered during the investigation (Bowden et al. 1997).
Field Reconnaissance
8
Field reconnaissance was conducted on February 26"', 2007. The intent of the field visit was to
gage the potential for cultural resources within the project area. At the time of the survey the
parcel was heavily overgrown with Himalayan blackberry, however several paths were cleared
through the vegetation by surveyors hired by the project proponent No pre-contact, or historic
cultural resources were observed during the brief field visit, however no subsurface testing was
employed.
The project area is dominated by gently sloping to steeply sloping topography with some level
areas adjacent to May Creek. Channelization of May Creek is evident from a large, gravel
spoils pile along the southern margin of the creek. The near-surface sediments were observed
in the stream bank, tree tips, and in rodent burrows and consist of approximately 30 cm (12-
inches) of coarse sand overlying dense gravels. Cottonwood and red alder dominate the creek
margin while some cedar, fir, and big-leaf maple occur along the hillside. The understory is
dominated by Himalayan blackberry, sword fern, salmonberry, and tall grass (Figure 5). Skunk
cabbage was observed within deSignated wetlands in the central and eastern portions of the
property. A small clearing (area void of large trees) was observed in the western half of the
parcel and corresponds to the location of a building shown on a 1902 map. Three very old fruit
trees were observed just west of the clearing supporting map references indicating the project
parcel encompasses part of an old homestea~ssibly the Colman homestead.

Conclusions and Recommendations
The proposed May Creek Development project area has a moderate to high probability for pre-
contact cultural resources based on the natural setting and proximity to a Native American
village site. The western half of the project has the highest potential for pre-contact cultural
resources based on the gentle slope and proximity to lake Washington. The sloping landform
would not have been ideal for long-term habitation, however activity areas associated with the
former village of CbBf'1" could be present. Activity areas could be represented by
concentrations of fire-modified rock and charcoal-stained sediments. Isolated artifacts, or
concentrations of artifacts could also be present and may include projectile points, edge
modified cobbles and flakes, lithic waste flakes and adze blade fragments. Native American
burials are also possible based on the proximity to Cbat'1" and because the area may have
offered the closest high-ground. The project area also has a high probability for historic cultural
resources based on earty settlement and historic maps showing buildings within and adjacent to
the parcel. Expectations for historic cultural resources within the project parcel include refuse
pits and privy middens (abandoned outhouses). These features can contain historic artifact
assemblages that are considered significant under Federal criteria and can contribute to the
understanding of historic settlement in the region.
Based on the high probability for both pre-contact and historic cultural resources it is strongly
recommended that a cultural resources assessment be conducted prior to construction. The
most efficient and cost-effective means of identifying significant cultural resources would be
through mechanical exploration of western half of the project. Please be advised that cultural
resources are protected under the Archaeological Sites and Resources Act [RCW 27.53) which
prohibits excavating or disturbing prehistoric and historic archaeological sites on public or
private land and the Indian Graves and Records Act [RCW 27.44) which prohibits destroying
American Indian graves and provides that inadvertent disturbance through construction or other
activity requires re-interment under supervision of the appropriate Indian tribe.
I hope this letter sufficiently addresses your needs for determining the potential for cultural
resources within the proposed May Creek Development project area. Please do not hesitate to
contact me or Chris Miss with any questions or concerns regarding this letter, or the
recommendations made herein.
Sincerely,
Michael Shong

ARTICLES SIX
MAINTENANCE AND COMMON EXPENSES
Section 6.1: Standard of Maintenance -Common Areas. The Association shall maintain the
Common Areas in a manner consistent with good building and landscaping practices and in
compliance with all applicable codes and regulations.
Section 6.2: Standard of Maintenance -Lots and Planting Strips. Each Owner hereby covenants
and agrees to maintain its respective Lot, the Structures located on its Lot and any planting strip
3
located between the street and sidewalk adjacent to its Lot in the same condition as a reasonably
prudent homeowner would maintain such person's own home and property so that the Lot and the
Structures located thereon will reflect a high pride of ownership. Each Owner shall perform at its
expense the maintenance and upkeep of any drainage swales and/or underground drain lines and
catch basins installed on its Lot.
Section 6.3: Remedies for Failure to Maintain. If any Owner shall fail to maintain its Lot or the
exterior of the Structures located thereon on accordance with the requirements of Section 6.2
above, the Association may notify the Owner in writing of the maintenance required. If the
maintenance is not performed within thirty (30) days of the date notice is delivered, the Association
shall have the right to provide such maintenance, and to levy an assessment against the non-
performing Owner and its Lot for the cost of providing the maintenance. The assessment shall
constitute a lien against the Lot owned by the non-performing Owner and may be collected and
foreclosed in the same manner as any other delinquent monthly or special assessment. The
Association shall have all remedies for collection as provided in Article Eight below. In the event
that emergency repairs are needed to correct a condition on a Lot which poses a substantial risk of
injury or significant property damage to others, the Association may immediately perform such
repairs as may be necessary after the Association has attempted to give notice to the Owner of the
repairs necessary. Such notice in emergency circumstances shall be sufficient if attempted orally
or in writing immediately prior to the Association's undertaking the necessary repairs. Emergency
repairs perfomned by the Association, if not paid for by the Owner, may be collected by the
Association in the manner provided for herein notwithstanding the failure of the Association to give
the Owner the thirty (30) day notice.

ASSESSMENTS
Section 7 l' Tvpes of Assessments. Each Lot shall be subject to monthly or annual assessments
or charges, and certain special assessments, in an amount to be determined by the Association.
Section 7.2: Determination of Amount. The Board of Directors of the Association shall determine
the amount of assessments necessary to pay Common Expenses. The amount of assessments
may be increased or decreased periodically as may be necessary to provide for payment of the
Common Expenses. The amount of such assessments shall be equal for all Lots. There shall be
no assessment for Lots owned by Developer, without the consent of the Developer. The
Association may create and maintain from assessments a reserve fund for replacement of those
Common Area improvements that can reasonably be expected to require maintenance or
replacement. Written notice of all assessments shall be given to each Owner. If the Board fails to
fix an assessment for a fiscal year, the assessment shall be automatically continued at the sum
previously set by the Board until such time as the Board acts.
Section 7.3: Certificate of Payment. The Association shall, upon written demand, furnish a
certificate in writing setting forth whether the assessment on a specified Lot has been paid. A
reasonable charge may be made for the issuance of the certificate. Such certificate shall be
conclusive evidence of payment of any assessment stated to have been paid.
Section 7.4: Special Assessments. In addition to the assessments authorized above, the
Association, by its Board of Directors may levy, in any year, a special assessment applicable to
that year only for the purpose of defraying the cost of any construction or reconstruction,
unexpected repair or replacement of facilities in the Common Areas. However, the Developer shall
not be obligated to pay any special assessments on Lots owned by the Developer. Assessments
may be made based upon the estimated cost of such work, prior to the work's commencement,
provided such estimate has been provided by a contractor retained by the Board for the purpose of
such estimate. All special assessments for construction of new facilities or acquisition of new
equipment, which is not for the upgrade, repair or replacement of existing construction or
equipment, shall require approval of two-thirds of the Members.
Section 7.5. Fines Treated as Special Assessments. Any fines levied by the Association pursuant
to RCW Chapter 64.38 (or successor statute authorizing the imposition of fines) shall be treated as
a special assessment of the Owner fined, and may be collected by the Association in the manner
described in Article Eight below.
ARTICLE EIGHT
COLLECTION OF ASSESSMENTS
Section 8.1: Lien -Personal Obligation. All assessments, together with interest and the cost of
collection shall be a continuing lien upon the Lot against which each such assessment is made.
The lien shall have all the incidents of a mortgage on real property. Each such assessment,
together with interest, costs and reasonable attorney's fees, shall also be the personal obligation of
the person who was the Owner of the Lot at the time the assessment was due. No Owner may
waive or otherwise avoid liability for assessments by non-use of the Common Areas or
abandonment of the Lot.
5
Section 8.2: Delinguency. If any assessment is not paid within thirty (30) days after its due date,
the assessment shall bear interest from said date at twelve percent (12%), or, in the event that
twelve percent (12%) exceeds the maximum of interest that can be charged by law, then the
highest permissible rate as provided for by law. A late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount
overdue shall be charged for any payment more than ten (10) days past due. Each Owner hereby
expressly grants to the Association or its agents, the authority to bring all actions against each
Owner personally for the collection of such assessments as a debt and to enforce lien rights of the
Association by all methods for the enforcement of such liens, including foreclosure by an action
brought in the name of the Association in a like manner as a mortgage of real property, and such
Owner hereby expressly grants to the Association the power of sale in connection with such liens.
The lien arising under this Section may be enforced judicially by the Association or its authorized
representative in the manner set forth in RCW 61.12, or nonjudicially in the manner set forth in
RCW 61.24 for nonjudicial foreclosure of deeds of trust. The liens provided for in this section shall
be in favor of the Association, and shall be for the benefit of the Association. The Association shall
have the power to bid at a foreclosure sale and to acquire, hold, lease, mortgage and convey any
Lot obtained by the Association. For the purpose of preserving Association's nonjudicial
foreclosure option, this Declaration shall be considered to create a grant of each Lot in trust to
Pacific Northwest Title Company of Washington, Inc., or its successors or assigns ("Trustee"), to
secure the obligations of each Owner ("Grantor") to the Association ("Beneficiary") for the payment
of Assessments. Grantor shall retain the right to possession of Grantor's Lot so long as Grantor is
not in default of an obligation to pay Assessments. The Trustee shall have the power of sale with
respect to each Lot, which becomes operative in the case of a default in a Grantor's obligation to
pay Assessments. The Lots are not used principally for agricultural or farming purposes.
Section 8.3: Suspension of Voting Rights. In the event any Owner shall be in arrears in the
payment of the assessments due or shall be in default of the performance of any of the terms of the
Articles and Bylaws of the ASSOCiation, the rules or regulations adopted by the Association, or the
Declaration for a period of thirty (30) days, the Owner's right to vote as a Member shall be
suspended and shall remain suspended until all payments are brought current and all defaults
remedied. In addition, the Association shall have such other remedies against such delinquent
Owners as may be provided in the Articles, Bylaws or this Declaration.
Section 8.4: Commencement of Assessments. The assessments may commence as to each Lot
(except Lots owned by the Developer) upon the initial conveyance of the Lot. The first assessment
on any Lot shall be adjusted according to the number of days remaining in the month. At the time
of each initial sale, the Developer may collect from each Purchaser an amount equal to one year's
assessment for the Association, to be placed in the Association's account. Any interest earned by
the Association on assessments held by it shall be to the benefit of the Association.
Section 8.5: Enforcement of Assessments. The Board may take such action as is necessary,
including the institution of legal proceedings, to enforce the provisions of this Article. In the event
the Board begins an action to enforce any such rights, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its
attorney's fees, costs and expenses incurred in the course of such enforcement action as provided
in Section 16.5.
