The proposed parking lot would be located on a vacant parcel to the north of Harper Engineering and would be accessible from the existing Harper Engineering parking lot via an access easement over the Burlington Northern Railroad. The proposal to add 47 parking spaces to the existing 76 parking spaces on the Harper Engineering site would result in a total of 126 spaces on the project site, which would exceed the maximum number of 112 spaces permitted by the City's parking regulations by 14 spaces. The project site is located within the Medium Industrial zone (IM) and the Employment Area Valley overlay. A wetland and seismic hazard area have been mapped on the project site. PROJECT LOCATION: 700 SW 7`" St LEAD AGENCY: City of Renton Environmental Review Committee Department of Community & Economic Development The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee has determined that it does not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). Conditions were imposed as mitigation measures by the Environmental Review Committee under their authority of Section 4-9-070D Renton Municipal Code.

Environmental Impacts Environmental Review Committee & Administrative Site Plan Report LUA14-001199, SA -A, ECF Page 4 of 15 The Proposal was circulated and reviewed by various City Departments and Divisions to determine whether the applicant has adequately identified and addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in conjunction with the proposed development. Staff reviewers have identified that the proposal is likely to have the following probable impacts: a. Earth Impacts: The topography of the project site generally slopes to the northwest with the steepest slope estimated at 30 percent. According to the applicant, approximately 1,000 cubic yards of fill will be imported to construct the parking lot subgrade. A Geotechnical Evaluation (Exhibit 5), prepared by Earth Solutions NW, LLC (date August 12, 2014) was submitted with the application materials. Four test pits were excavated to explore the soil and groundwater conditions onsite. The pits were excavated to depths ranging from 9 to 11 feet with a backhoe. In general, the soils onsite were comprised of silt and silty fine sand. Silt was the predominate soil deposit and was observed to be in a loose to medium dense condition. The silty sand was encountered at test pit 4 and was overlying a silt deposit. Groundwater seepage was observed in test pit 4 at a depth of about eight and one half feet below grade. According to the report (Exhibit 5) the groundwater seepage likely represents the local groundwater table, which would be expected to rise during the wetter fall -spring months. The submitted geotechnical report (Exhibit 5) provides recommendations for surface water infiltration, paving, and the railroad crossing. Staff recommends as a SEPA mitigation measure that project construction be required to comply with the recommendations outlined in the submitted Geotechnical Evaluation prepared by Earth Solutions NW, LLC (date August 12, 2014). Mitigation Measures: Project construction shall be required to comply with the recommendations outlined in the submitted Geotechnical Evaluation, prepared by Earth Solutions NW, LLC (date August 12, 2014). Nexus: SEPA Environmental Review, RMC 4-4-060 Grading, Excavation and Mining Regulations. b. Water I. Wetlands Impacts: A Wetland Delineation Study (Exhibit 7) prepared by The Watershed Company (date June 27, 2013) was submitted with project application materials. A Category 3 wetland (Wetland A) has been identified and delineated on the northwest corner of the project site. The wetland extends offsite to the west. The City's adopted Critical Areas Regulations (RMC 4-3-050) specify that Category 3 wetlands shall have a minimum 25 -foot buffer and the perimeter shall be fenced and signed appropriately. No impacts are proposed to the onsite wetland or associated buffer. Therefore, staff does not anticipate that the construction of the proposed surface parking lot would adversely impact Wetland A or its associated buffer. No further mitigation is recommended. Mitigation Measures: None Nexus: N/A Il. Storm Water Impacts: A Technical Information Report (TIR) (Exhibit 6), prepared by Barghausen (dated August 22, 2014) was submitted with the application materials. The submitted TIR (Exhibit 6) did not include a downstream analysis as the proposed surface parking lot would be constructed using permeable asphalt, which would allow infiltration of the stormwater runoff. The TIR (Exhibit 6) did indicate that in the event runoff overtops the porous pavements, the runoff would sheet flow to the west into the Black River drainage basin at the Black River Park. The TIR (Exhibit 6) also concludes that the existing ERC/Site Plan Report City of Renton Deportment of Community & Economic Development Environmental Review Committee & Administrative Site Plan Report HARPER ENGINEERING PARKING L, )DITION LUA14-001199, SA -A, ECF Report of October 13, 2014 Page 5 of 15 onsite soils exhibit water quality treatment capability due to the infiltration rate identified in the submitted geotechnical report (Exhibit 5). This project is required to comply with the 2009 King County Surface Water Manual and the City of Renton Amendments to the KCSWM, Chapter 1 and 2. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. C. Transportation Impacts: The project site would gain access from SW 7`h Street through the existing surface parking lot adjacent to the Harper Engineering building to the south of the project site and a proposed 16 -foot wide crossing over the Burlington Northern Railroad right-of-way. Frontage improvements are not required for the proposed new surface parking lot. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. d. Fire & Police Impacts: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicated that sufficient resources exist to furnish services to the proposed development. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 4. Comments of Reviewing Departments The proposal has been circulated to City Department and Division Reviewers. Where applicable, their comments have been incorporated into the text of this report and/or "Advisory Notes to Applicant." 1. ADMINSTRATIVE SITE PLAN REVIEW FINDINGS OF FACT. 1. The applicant, Harper Engineering, is requesting Administrative Site Plan Review, a Parking Modification, and Environmental 'SEPA' Review for the construction of a new surface parking lot with 47 spaces, of which 19 would be compact. No ADA accessible spaces are proposed due to the parking lot's location over the Burlington Northern Railroad right-of-way and the distance of the parking lot from the main building entrance. The proposed parking lot would be constructed outside the 25 -foot buffer surrounding Wetland A. 2. Associated landscaping and lighting improvements are proposed within the new parking lot. 3. The proposed parking lot would be constructed using pervious pavement to infiltrate the stormwater and provide water quality treatment. 4. The subject property is located north of the existing Harper Engineering building, which is on the north side of SW 7`h Street. 5. The 1.02 acre property is located within the Employment Area Valley (EAV) Comprehensive Plan land use designation, the Medium Industrial (IM) zoning classification, and the Employment Area Valley overlay. 6. The site currently is currently vacant, with a Category 3 wetland on the northwest corner of the project site, which continues off-site.

In addition, 15 square feet of landscaping per parking stall is required for parking areas with 15 to 50 parking spaces. Perimeter parking lot landscaping is required to be a minimum width of 10 feet with trees at an average rate of 1 tree per 30 lineal feet of street frontage, shrubs at a minimum rate of one per 20 square feet of landscaped area (50 percent may be deciduous), and ground cover shall be in sufficient quantities to provide 90 percent coverage within 3 years. Interior parking lot landscaping is required to have a minimum width of 5 feet with one tree for every 6 parking spaces, shrubs at a minimum rate of one per 20 square feet of landscaped area (50 percent may be deciduous), ground cover shall be in sufficient quantities to provide 90 percent coverage within 3 years and there shall be no more than 50 feet between parking stalls and interior landscaping. Staff Comment: A landscape plan was submitted with the application materials (Exhibit 3).The street frontage landscaping requirements are not applicable as the project site does not abut a public street frontage. Based on the proposal to construct a new surface parking lot with 47 parking spaces, a total of 705 square feet of interior parking lot landscaping is required. The applicant is proposing a total of 1,200 square feet of interior parking lot landscaping and 4,600 square feet of perimeter landscaping. The proposed landscaping would exceed the minimum amount of landscaping required within the parking lot and would comply with this requirement. Douglas Fir and Capital Ornamental Pear trees are proposed around the perimeter of the parking lot and Red Sunset Maple trees are proposed within the interior parking lot landscaping. The following shrubs are proposed within the interior parking lot landscaping: Pink Abelia, Portugal Laurel, and Oregon Grape. Kinnikinnik is proposed to be planted around the perimeter of the parking lot and Barren Strawberry would be planted within the interior landscaped areas. The proposed plantings would comply with the minimum requirements outlined in the City's Landscaping Regulations. An Irrigation Plan was submitted with the application materials (Exhibit 10).Underground sprinkler systems are required to be installed and maintained for all landscaped areas. The sprinkler system shall provide full water coverage of the planted areas specified on the landscape plan (Exhibit 3). Refuse and Recyclables: RMC 4-4-090 provides minimum standards for Refuse and Recyclables areas. Staff Comment: No new structures are proposed, not applicable. Critical Areas: A Wetland Delineation Study (Exhibit 7) prepared by The Watershed Company (date June 27, 2013) was submitted with project application materials. A Category 3 wetland (Wetland A) has been identified and delineated on the northwest corner of the project site. The wetland extends offsite to the west. The City's adopted Critical Areas Regulations (RMC 4-3-050) specify that Category 3 wetlands shall have a minimum 25 -foot buffer and that the perimeter of the wetland be fenced and signed appropriately. No impacts are proposed to the onsite wetland or associated buffer. Staff recommends as a condition of approval that a fencing and signage detail be submitted to the Current ERC/Site Plan Report City of Renton Department of Community & E—nomic Development Environmental Revi - Committee & Administrative Site Plan Report HARPER ENGINEERING PARKING L DDITION LUA14-001199, SA -A, ELF Report of October 13, 2014 Page 8 of 15 Planning Project Manager for review and approval prior to the issuance of the Construction Permit. Parking: The parking regulations, RMC 4-4-080, require a specific number of off-street parking stalls be provided following: The following ratios would be applicable to the site: Use SF Ratio Required Spaces Office 6,760 Min: 2.0 spaces/ 1, 000 SF Max: 4.5 spaces/1, 000 SF Min: 14 Max: 30 Manufacturing 23,340 Min: 1 space/1, 000 SF Max: 1.5 spaces / 1,000 SF Min:23 Max: 35 Warehouse 2,652 Min/Max:1 space/1,500 SF Min/Max:2 Staff Comment: Based on the existing office, manufacturing, and warehouse uses, a minimum of 84 stalls would be required to meet code and a maximum of 112 parking spaces would be permitted. The existing Harper Engineering Building parking lot contains a total of 76 parking spaces. The proposal to add 47 spaces results in a total of 126 parking spaces on site which exceeds the maximum number of spaces permitted by 14 spaces. A modification request was submitted with the project application materials, which included a justification (Exhibit 9) in compliance with RMC 4-9- 250D. The modification is required to comply with the following criteria: a. Substantially implements the policy direction of the policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and the Community Design Element and the proposed modification is the minimum adjustment necessary to implement these policies and objectives; b. Will meet the objectives and safety, function, appearance, environmental protection and maintainability intended by the Code requirements, based upon sound engineering judgment; c. Will not be injurious to other property(ies) in the vicinity; d. Conforms to the intent and purpose of the Code; e. Can be shown to be justified and required for the use and situation intended; and f. Will not create adverse impacts to other property(ies) in the vicinity. The applicant's justification states that the proposal to exceed the maximum number of spaces permitted is necessary due to an agreement with Puget Sound Electrical JTAC, which specifies that 45 of the parking spaces on the Harper Engineering site are reserved for overflow parking for the JTAC. The proposed 47 space parking lot would be dedicated for use by the JTAC for over flow parking and allows the existing 76 space surface parking lot adjacent to the Harper Engineering building to be utilized for employee parking. Staff concurs that the requirement for providing 45 onsite parking spaces for Puget Sound Electrical JTAC overflow parking results in a practical difficulty and that the proposed modification would substantially implement the policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the proposed modification is the minimum necessary. The proposed modification would meet the objectives and safety, function, appearance, environmental protection and maintainability intended by the parking regulations as no impacts are proposed to the existing wetland. The proposed modification would not be injurious to other properties in the vicinity and conforms to the intent and purpose of the parking regulations. The proposed modification can be shown to be justified for the use and situation intended, which is overflow parking for Puget Sound Electrical JTAC. The proposed modification would not create adverse impacts to other properties in the vicinity. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the requested parking modification. No more than 40 percent of parking spaces provided may be designated as compact spaces. The proposal includes 19 of the new spaces as designated compact spaces (19/47 = 40 percent), which complies with the maximum number of compact spaces requirement. Based on the proposal for 126 total parking spaces on the Harper Engineering projects site, a minimum of 5 ADA accessible spaces are required. The existing parking lot adjacent to the Harper Engineering building includes 5 existing ERC/Site Plan Report City of Renton Department of Community & Ec-nomic Development HARPER ENGINEERING PARKING Lf iDITION Report of October 13, 2014 Environmental Revie Committee & Administrative Site Plan Report LUA14-001199, SA -A, ECF Page 9 of 15 ADA accessible spaces, which complies with this requirement.

OFF SITE IMPACTS: >: Structures: Restricting overscale structures and overconcentration of development on a particular portion of the site. The proposal includes the construction of a new surface parking lot for the existing Harper Engineering Building, no new structures are proposed. The proposal would not result in any overscale structures or overconcentration of development. Circulation: Providing desirable transitions and linkages between uses, streets, walkways and adjacent properties. The proposed parking lot is intended to provide the required overflow parking for the Puget Sound Electrical JTAC. It is anticipated that patrons utilizing the parking lot would navigate through the parcel to the south (existing Harper Engineering parking lot) via existing pedestrian linkages to access SW 7`' Street. The proposed parking area would comply with this requirement. Loading and Storage Areas: Locating, designing and screening storage areas, utilities, rooftop equipment, loading areas, and refuse and recyclables to minimize views from surrounding properties. The proposed parking lot does not contain any new structures or storage areas that required screening. This section is not applicable. Views: Recognizing the public benefit and desirability of maintaining visual accessibility to attractive noturalfeatures. The proposed parking lot would not obstruct any views. Landscaping: Using landscaping to provide transitions between development and surrounding properties to reduce noise and glare, maintain privacy, and generally enhance the appearance of the project. Landscaping is proposed within and around the new parking lot (see previous discussion above under Findings Section 15b). It is anticipated that the proposed Douglas Fir trees to be planted around the perimeter of the parking lot would provide a visual screen between the proposed parking area and surrounding properties. The proposed parking lot would comply with this requirement.

Not applicable, no new structures are proposed. Structure Scale: Consideration of the scale of proposed structures in relation to natural characteristics, views and vistas, site amenities, sunlight, prevailing winds, and pedestrian and vehicle needs. Not applicable, no new structures are proposed. Natural Features: Protection of the natural landscape by retaining existing vegetation and soils, using topography to reduce undue cutting and filling, and limiting impervious surfaces. A Category 3 wetland is located on the northwestern portion of the project site. The proposed parking lot has been sited such that no impacts are proposed to the wetland or associated buffer a rea. Of the existing 39 significant trees which have been identified, 9 are proposed for retention. The City's adopted Tree Retention regulations (RMC 4-4-130) require the retention of 5 percent of the trees on site. The proposal to retain 9 existing trees results in a retention rate of 23 percent, which exceeds the minimum tree retention requirements. A geotechnical report (Exhibit 5) for the site was submitted. Information on the water table and soil permeability with recommendations of appropriate flow control BMP options were included in the report. Grading would be necessary in order to prepare the site for the proposed improvements, the applicant indicates that approximately 1,000 cubic yards of fill would be imported to create the parking lot subgrade. The parking lot would be comprised of pervious pavement, which limits the impervious surface on the project site. The proposed parking lot would comply with this requirement. Landscaping: Use of landscaping to soften the appearance of parking areas, to provide shade and privacy where needed, to define and enhance open spaces, and generally to enhance the appearance of the project. Landscaping also includes the design and protection of planting areas so that they are less susceptible to damage from vehicles or pedestrian movements. Landscaping would be incorporated into to the surface parking area, which will soften the appearance of the pavement. A total of 12 Red Sunset Maple trees, 10 Capital Ornamental Pear trees, and 20 Douglas Fir trees are proposed within the parking lot to provide shade and break up the expanse of pavement (Exhibit 3). The proposed landscaping would be located within designated planting areas making them less susceptible to damage from vehicular or pedestrian movement and enhancing the general appearance of the project. g. ACCESS :: Location and Consolidation: Providing access points on side streets or frontage streets rather than directly onto arterial streets and consolidation of ingress and egress points on the site and, when feasible, with adjacent properties. Access to the site would be provided through the existing Harper Engineering parking lot to the south onto SW 71h Street (Minor Arterial). No new driveways or curb cuts are proposed.

In accordance with you request, Earth Solutions NW, LLC (ESNW) has prepared this geotechnical evaluation letter for the subject property. Project Description The site is located along the north side of Southwest 7th Street in Renton, Washington. The approximate location of the property is delineated on the Vicinity Map (Plate 1). The subject area consists of a triangular-shaped parcel located off the north side of the existing Harper Engineering building. We understand new parking will be constructed in this area. Grades will remain largely unchanged with the exception of the egress which will require constructing a ramp to clear an existing abandoned railway line. The feasibility of infiltrating runoff is also being investigated as part of the project plans. Geotechnical Evaluation Subsurface Conditions An ESNW representative observed, logged and sampled four test pits excavated within the proposed parking area using a backhoe and operator retained by our firm. The approximate locations of the test pits are delineated on the Test Pit Location Plan (Plate 2). A general soil description is provided below.

Project Name: Harper Engineering Parking Addition Site Location: 700 SW 7t' Street Tax Parcel: 182305-9036 & 182305-9270 Zoning Designation: IM (Industrial Medium) The current number of parking stalls located on parcel #182305-9270 is 84 parking stalls. This number takes into account an agreement between Harper Engineering and Puget Sound Electrical JATC that allows sole use of 45 of those stalls strictly for the needs of Puget Sound Electrical JATC. Harper Engineering originally purchased the property with the full understanding and knowledge that they would be required to provide this overflow parking upon request. Due to Harper Engineering's growing business they now require an increased number of parking spaces for their employees. Therefore, Harper Engineering is requesting a Modification of Parking standard by adding an additional 47 parking stalls on parcel #182305-9036 to accommodate the 45 parking stalls reserved for Puget Sound Electrical JATC. This parking lot is located behind the existing Harper Engineering building and would allow all the parking stalls (total of 76) located on parcel #182305-9270 to be used by Harper Engineering Employees. This brings the total parking count to 123 spaces between both parcels which is 14 stalls over the maximum allowed stalls of 112 per the Renton Municipal Code. 2505 Third Avenue, Suite 324 Seattle Washington 98121 Phone 206.720.7001 Fax 206.720.2949 J 0 06, � mm \/.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY � kl r' ' AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT M E M O R A N D U M DATE: October 10, 2013 TO: Pre -application File No. 1.3-001299 FROM: Gerald Wasser, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Harper Engineering Addition General: We have completed a preliminary review of the pre -application for the above - referenced development proposal. 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, 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 for purchase for $50.00 plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall or online at www.rentonwa.gov Project Proposal: 1 -he subject property is located at 700 SW 7" Street and consists of two parcels (APN 1823059036 and APN 1823059270). The project site is flat. The property is zoned Industrial Medium (IM) and is within the Employment Area Valley. The applicant is proposing to construct a surface level parking lot for 42 vehicles on the northerly parcel which would be connected to the southerly parcel across the BNSF railroad tracks and a 5,600 s.f. addition to the existing manufacturing building on the southern parcel. The proposed building addition would require the removal of 27 parking stalls_ Access to the site would remain from SW 7" Street. Current Use: The northern property (APM 182305-9036) is vacant and the southern parcel (APN 1823059270) is currently developed with offices/laboratories and the Harper Engineering manufacturing facility. Zoning: The subject property is zoned Industrial Medium (IM) and is located in the Frnployment Area Valley Overlay. Harper Engineering Addition, PRE13 001299 Page 2 of 3 October 10, 2013 Development Standards: The project would be subject to RMC 4-2-130A, "Development Standards for Industrial Zoning Designations" effective at the time of complete application. A copy of these standards is included. Access/Parking: The applicant has indicated that access would continue to be taken from driveways off of SW 7n' Street. There are currently 93 parking spaces on the project site including 4 accessible spaces. The parking space ratio for manufacturing uses is a minimum of 1 space to a maximum of 1.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of net floor area. The two-way traffic flow in the new parking area provides for 24 -foot wide aisles, consistent with Code provisions. A maximum of 40% of employee stalls may be. compact (8-1/2' x 16') or a maximum of 30% of all other parking stalls may be compact. Standard stalls are required to be 9' x 20'. A total of 19 of the proposed 42 new stalls are proposed to be compact parking stalls. Twenty-five of the existing parking stalls are also compact. A parking modification may be possible, if the maximum number of compact stalls is exceeded. Each modification requested is subject to an additional fee (see below). The applicant has noted that preliminary discussions have taken place with the BNSF railroad in order to obtain a wider easement across the railroad tracks . Prior to issuance of any building permits for the new parking area, and final occupancy of the building addition, which relies on the new parking, a completed easement document would be required to be provided to the City. Refuse and Recycling: It appears that the applicant has not changed the size of the refuse/recycling enclosure. Office uses require a minimum of 2 square feet of recyclable area per 1,000 gross square feet of floor area and 4 square feet of refuse area per 1,000 gross square feet of floor area,- manufacturing rea;manufacturing uses require a minimum of 3 square feet of recyclables area per 1,000 gross square feet of floor area and 6 square feet of refuse area per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. The formal submittal must indicate compliance with these requirements. Landscaping and Open Space: No additional landscaping is proposed for the site. The applicant indicates that a parking lot landscape island would be removed to accommodate the proposed addition. Landscaping in the reconfigured existing and newly proposed parking lot must be in conformance RMC 4-4-070. Significant Tree Retention: It appears that several trees would be removed to accommodate the proposed development. In the IM Zone, 5% of the existing significant trees (6 -inch diameter) must be retained. If removal of additional trees is authorized, the replacement ratio is 6:1 with a minimum caliper of 2 -inches. A tree retention/removal/replacement plan must be submitted with the formal land use application. ,d',,�i anw ingAout �hnnia , . 1� I C"')] "i) , 0�;] � harper Harper Engineering Addition, PRE13-00'1299 Page 3 of 3 October 10, 2013 Environmental Review: Because the proposed project area contains a wetland, an Environmental (SEPA) Review would be required. A wetland delineation is required to be submitted. The fee for Environmental (SEPA) Review is $1,030.00 ($1,000.00 plus 3% Technology Surcharge Fee). Permit Requirements: An approved Administrative Site Plan Review would be required for the proposed project. The application fee for an Administrative Site Plan Review would be $1,030.00 ($1,000.00 plus 3% Technology Surcharge Fee. The administrative Site Plan Review and Environmental (SEPA) Review would be processed concurrently in an estimated time frame of 6 to 8 weeks. Parking Modification: A modification from the Parking and Loading Standards may be needed for the number of compact parking stalls proposed. If a modification is needed, the fee is $100 plus the 3% Technology Fee ($103 total). Fees: In addition to the applicable building and construction fees, impact fees are required. Such fees apply to all projects and would be calculated at the time of building permit application and payable prior to building permit issuance. 7 he fees for 2013 are as follows: • Transportation Impact Fee - $0.29/square foot ($1.09/square foot in 2014); and • Fire Impact Fee- $0.08/square foot (will remain the same in 2014) a A handout listing all of the City's Development related fees is attached for your review. Note: When formal application materials are complete, the applicant must make an appointment with the project manager, Gerald Was -ser, to have one copy of the application materials pre-screened at the 6th public counter prior to submitting the complete application package. Mr. Wasser may be contacted at (425) 430-7382 or gwasser@ ren tonwa.gov. Expiration: Upon approval, Administrative Site Plan Review is valid for two years with a possible two-year extension. r rI`,pa nr�g1 ', ;T 0;)1293, h*1.doc PRE13-001299 Harper Eng.

Project Name: Harper Engineering Parking Addition Site Location: 700 SW 7" Street Tax Parcel: 182305-9036 Zoning Designation: IM (Industrial Medium) Land Use Required Permits: 1) Grading Permit 2) Site Development Permit 3) SEPA Determination of Non -significance 4) BNRR Right-of-Way/Crossing Permit The site currently consists of 44,491 square feet of un -developed land. There is a wetlands located on the northern part of the property which has been mapped and described in the wetland delineation report prepared by The Watershed Company on June 27, 2013. Per the report, all development will be setback a minimum of 25 feet from the existing wetlands. Proposed improvements on the site include a new surface parking lot accommodating 47 new parking stalls. Access to the parking lot will be provided by a private, one-way drive aisle within an existing 16' access easement that crosses BNSF railroad tracks and connects to parcel #182305-9270. As a result of this private drive, 8 parking stalls on parcel #182305-9270 will be removed. This brings the total parking count serving Harper Engineering to 123. This exceeds the maximum allowed parking requirements per the City of Renton Municipal Code. As such, a parking modification to the maximum number of allowed parking stalls is being requested. The total estimated cost for the proposed development is approximately $400,000.00. The soil types present on the site are as follows, per the geotechnical report by Earth Solutions Northwest dated 08/12/2014. "In general, silt (Unified Soil Classification ML) and silty fine sand (SM) alluvial deposits were encountered at the test pit locations. The silt was the predominate soil deposit and was observed to be in a loose to medium dense condition. The silty sand was encountered at test pit location TP -4 and was overlying a silt deposit. The project will consist of approximately 900-1000 cubic yards of fill for the pavement subgrade. This material will be a washed fractured rock to create the clean drainage coarse below the proposed pervious pavement. Approximately 30 trees will need to be removed with the majority of them being cotton woods with a diameter anywhere between 12"-36". There are also a handful of maple and oak trees that will i need to be removed. 2505 Third Avenue, Suite 324 Seattle Washington 98121 Phone 206.720.7001 Fax 206.720.2949 MSAAV ClNn m 0 n N m I 0900009ti1Z 0 0 0 0 MS '30 V03N38 6mp Eery Ilelaa pwgjo446iaN OGS"ZI 0 cc aW cc LU z _Z5 z W 0- < z �o J (Z' c QCCP 0 OZA�LO J Z 0 U o Owe mIr =i 2D t WT z 0 O 0 o 3 OZ0000941Z 0 0 0 MS '3AV SVWOHi 6mp Eery Ilelaa pwgjo446iaN OGS"ZI 0 cc aW cc LU z _Z5 z W 0- < z �o J (Z' c QCCP 0 OZA�LO J Z 0 U o Owe mIr =i 2D t WT z August, 26 2014 Harper Engineering Parking Addition Construction Mitigation Description • Proposed Construction Dates: Construction will begin spring of 2015 and end by summer of 2015. • Hours of Operation: Construction activities will take place generally Monday — Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm • Proposed Haul Route: North on Rainier Ave. N. from either 1-405 or SR 167.

Project Name: Harper Engineering Parking Addition Site Location: 700 SW 7th Street Tax Parcel: 182305-9036 & 182305-9270 Zoning Designation: IM (Industrial Medium) The current number of parking stalls located on parcel #182305-9270 is 84 parking stalls. This number takes into account an agreement between Harper Engineering and Puget Sound Electrical JATC that allows sole use of 45 of those stalls strictly for the needs of Puget Sound Electrical JATC. Harper Engineering originally purchased the property with the full understanding and knowledge that they would be required to provide this overflow parking upon request. Due to Harper Engineering's growing business they now require an increased number of parking spaces for their employees. Therefore, Harper Engineering is requesting a Modification of Parking standard by adding an additional 47 parking stalls on parcel #182305-9036 to accommodate the 45 parking stalls reserved for Puget Sound Electrical JATC. This parking lot is located behind the existing Harper Engineering building and would allow all the parking stalls (total of 76) located on parcel #182305-9270 to be used by Harper Engineering Employees. This brings the total parking count to 123 spaces between both parcels which is 14 stalls over the maximum allowed stalls of 112 per the Renton Municipal Code, 2505 Third Avenue, Suite 324 Seattle Washington 98121 Phone 206.720.7001 Fax 206 720.2949 PLANNING DIVISION ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST City of Renton Planning Division 1055 South Grady Way -Renton, WA 98057 Phone: 425-430-7200 Fax: 425-430-7231 PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST: The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21C RCW, requires all governmental agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact.

Project Description The site is located along the north side of Southwest 7th Street in Renton, Washington. The approximate location of the property is delineated on the Vicinity Map (Plate 1). The subject area consists of a triangular-shaped parcel located off the north side of the existing Harper Engineering building. We understand new parking will be constructed in this area. Grades will remain largely unchanged with the exception of the egress which will require constructing a ramp to clear an existing abandoned railway line. The feasibility of infiltrating runoff is also being investigated as part of the project plans. Geotechnical Evaluation Subsurface Conditions An ESNW representative observed, logged and sampled four test pits excavated within the proposed parking area using a backhoe and operator retained by our firm. The approximate locations of the test pits are delineated on the Test Pit Location Plan (Plate 2). A general soil description is provided below. Please refer to the test pit logs for a more detailed description of the soil and groundwater conditions encountered. 7805 - 136th Place N.F., Suite 201 • Bellevue, WA 98005 • (425) 449-4704 • FAX (425) 449-4711 Harper Engineering ES -2004.02 c/o Craft Architects Page 2 August 12, 2014 In general, silt (Unified Soil Classification ML) and silty fine sand (SM) alluvial deposits were encountered at the test pit locations. The silt was the predominate soil deposit and was observed to be in a loose to medium dense condition. The silty sand was encountered at test pit location TP -4 and was overlying a silt deposit. Groundwater seepage was observed at test pit location TP -4 at a depth of about eight and one- half feet below existing grade. This seepage likely represents the local groundwater table given the proximity of a local stream abutting the north property line, and we would expect the level to rise during the rainy Fall -Spring months. Infiltration Recommendations We conducted three EPA falling head infiltration tests within the native soil deposits, generally at a depth of about three feet below existing grades. The infiltration tests were performed at test pit locations TP -1 through TP -3. Based on the results of the testing, average unfactored infiltration rates of 1.0 inch/hour (TP -2 and TP -3) and 4.0 inches/hour (TP -1) were measured. USDA textural analysis of representative soil samples yielded a loam classification, with fines contents ranging from about 87 to 94 percent passing the No. 200 sieve. In our opinion, for preliminary site designs, a factored infiltration rate of 0.3 inch/hour can be used for LID elements. Due to the low infiltration rate, an overflow provision should be included in designs. Based on the groundwater conditions observed during the fieldwork, infiltration facilities should not extend below about three feet relative to existing grades. This provision is based on an estimate of seasonal high groundwater that rises 2.5 feet from the level observed during the fieldwork of 8.5 feet and a separation of 3.0 feet. Pavement Recommendations Pavement recommendations in this section are for preliminary design considerations. It is assumed that the majority of the traffic loading will consist of passenger vehicles, but that occasional heavy trucks may use the area. To ensure adequate pavement performance, the subgrade should be in a firm and unyielding condition when subjected to proofrolling with a loaded dump truck. Structural fill in pavement areas should be compacted to the specifications detailed in the "Site Preparation and Earthwork" section of this report. It is possible that soft, wet, or otherwise unsuitable subgrade areas may still exist after base grading activities. Areas containing unsuitable or yielding subgrade conditions will require remedial measures such as cement treatment, overexcavation and thicker crushed rock or structural fill sections prior to pavement. For relatively lightly loaded pavements subjected to automobiles, the following pavement sections can be considered: • Two inches of not mix asphalt (HMA) placed over four inches of crushed rock base (CRB), or; • Two inches of HMA placed over three inches of asphalt treated base (ATB) Earth Solutions Nw, LLC Harper Engineering ES -2004.02 c/o Craft Architects Page 3 August 12, 2014 Heavier traffic areas subjected to occasional truck traffic generally require thicker pavement sections depending on site usage, pavement life expectancy, and site traffic. For preliminary design purposes, the following pavement sections can be considered for these areas. • Three inches of HMA placed over six inches of CRIB, or; • Three inches of AC placed over four and one-half inches of ATB. The HMA, ATB and CRIB materials should conform to WSDOT specifications. City of Renton Road Standards may supersede the recommendations provided in this document. Railroad Crossing Easement Egress will be provided via a crossing easement that will extend over the railroad tracks. The majority of the crossing will be supported by railroad ballast fill. In this respect, roadway support should be good. In general, areas outside the existing railroad ballast fill should be prepared in a similar manner as those described in the pavement section above. There is the potential for differential settlement at the transition between the ballast fill and general site fill. The roadway fill will taper as it extends outside the railroad alignment and this will reduce the differential settlement to some degree. To further mitigate the effects of differential settlement in the egress area, a woven geotextile such as Mirafi 600X can be used under new fill areas. The geotextile should be placed such that it extends at least 10 feet into the ballast fill area and 20 feet into the areas outside ballast fill. Cement treatment of the soils outside the ballast area can be considered in lieu of using a geotextile. We trust this letter meets your current needs.

This letter summarizes the findings of this study and details applicable local, state and federal regulations. The following attachment is included: • Wetland Delineation Sketch • Wetland Determination Data Forms 750 Sixth Street South Kirkland, WA 98033 y 425.822.5242 f 425.827.8136 watershed—com - Wetland Delineation Trudy — Harper Engineering S. Devlin June 27, 2013 Page 2 Methods Public -domain information on the subject properties was reviewed for this delineation study. These sources include USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil maps, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetland Inventory maps, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife interactive mapping programs (PHS on the Web), King County's GIS mapping website (iMAP), and Renton's wetland inventory map. The study area was evaluated for wetlands using methodology from the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region Version 2.0 (Regional Supplement) (US Army Corps of Engineers [Corps] May 2010). The wetland boundaries were determined on the basis of an examination of vegetation, soils, and hydrology. Areas meeting the criteria set forth in the Regional Supplement were determined to be wetland. Soil, vegetation, and hydrologic parameters were sampled at several locations along the wetland boundaries to make the determinations. Sample locations are marked with yellow- and black -striped flagging. Wetland boundaries are marked with pink- and black striped flagging. We rated the on-site wetland using the City of Renton's Classification System in Renton Municipal Code (RMC) section 4-3-050(M.)(1.)(a.). Findings The undeveloped subject parcel is generally flat, with railroad tracks running along the north and southeast edges. An underground natural gas pipeline runs along the west parcel line. The south third of the parcel is characterized by a Himalayan blackberry monoculture. The balance of the site contains a forest of big leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum, FACU), black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera, FAC) and Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia, FACW), with an understory of Himalayan blackberry, red osier dogwood (Cornus sericea, FACW) and some reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea, FACW). Wetland A Wetland A is located in the northwest corner of the subject parcel and extends off-site to the west. Oregon ash dominates the canopy with some Sitka willow (Salix sitchensis, FACW) also present. Reed canarygrass and some other meadow grasses dominate the understory area. The rooting zone soil is a dark gray (1 OYR 4/1) silty clay loam with dark yellowish brown redoximorphic features (RMFs) located in the soil matrix. There was no saturation in the soil pit at the time of our visit, but the presence of surface soil cracks (136), algal mat (134), and water marks (Bl) are all primary indicators of wetland hydrology. These three indicators were also noted by Senior Wetland Biologist Jennifer Creveling in August 2012 during a preliminary site visit. Wetland Delineation Study — Harper Engineering S. Devlin June 27, 2013 Page 3 The non wetland area near Wetland A is dominated by a red -osier dogwood, with a sparse canopy of Oregon ash overhead, and some lady fern (Athyrium filix femina, FAC) and Dewey's sedge (Carex deweyana, FAC) also present in the understory. Rooting zone soil is a brown (10YR 4/3) silty loam with no RMFs. There is no indication of wetland hydrology near the sample pit. The soil was not saturated at any depth at the time of our visit. Figure 4-3-O5OQ5 of the RMC shows a series of wetlands located in the Black River area of Renton, west of and within the vicinity of the subject site. There was some question as to whether Wetland A is a distinct unit separate from these features, or is an extension of a larger mapped feature shown in the Figure. Based on field observation, elevation data, and shaded relief imagery from MAP, it appears that Wetland A is located at the eastern reach of a ditch that is distinctly separate from the mapped wetlands. Powell Ave SW, parking lots and buildings separate the ditch from the Black River area. Wetland A is not contiguous with the Black River area wetlands, but rather a distinct wetland unit. Local Regulations The City of Renton regulates wetlands under RMC Section 4-3-050(M.). Wetlands are classified using Renton's classification system (RMC 4-3-050(M.)(1.)(a.)) into three possible categories. Generally, Category 1 wetlands contain State or federally listed threatened or endangered species, have areas of permanent open water, are larger than 10 acres, and/or have plant associations of infrequent occurrence. Category 2 wetlands have heron rookeries or osprey nests, are headwater wetlands, and/or have a "...minimum existing evidence of human -related physical alteration such as diking, ditching or channelization." Wetlands that are classified as Category 3 have significantly altered soils and or vegetation through human activity, are newly emerging wetlands (not including wetland mitigation sites), or are small, high -functioning wetlands that are not Category 1 or 2 wetlands. Wetland A has no significant amounts of standing water present at any given time of the year and no permanent open water. Wetland A does not have any rookeries or osprey nests, is not a headwater wetland and has been significantly altered by the historic construction of railroad ballast prisms. Other alterations include ditching, construction of warehouses and parking lots nearby, and installation of the natural gas pipeline. Therefore, Wetland A meets the RMC criteria for a Category 3. Buffers and Setbacks Under the RMC, Wetland A requires a standard 25 -foot buffer measured from the edge of the wetland (RMC 4-3-050(M)(6.)(c.)). An additional "Building or Development Setback" may be required to protect the wetland buffer from building or maintenance activities (Section RMC 4-3-050(E.)(5.)(c.)). Although Wetland Delineation Study — Harper Engineering S. Devlin June 27, 2013 Page 4 not specified in the RMC, parking lots are typically exempt from this setback as construction and maintenance can be conducted entirely within the parking lot footprint. Exemptions In some cases, small (fewer than 2,200 square feet) Category 3 wetlands may be exempt from the provisions of RMC Section 4-3-050(M.) provided certain specific criteria are met. Wetland A extends off site for a considerable distance west of the subject property. At an estimated size of 3,000 square feet (this does not include portions not delineated), it would not be exempt under the RMC. Buffer Modification The standard wetland buffers of Category I and II wetlands may be modified through buffer averaging (RMC 4-3-050(M.)(6.)(f.)) and/or buffer reduction with enhancement (RMC 4-3- 050(M.)(6.)(e.)). In either case, the RMC states that buffers may not be reduced to below 50 percent of the standard buffer width or be less than 25 feet wide at any given place. As such, the Wetland A standard buffer of 25 feet may not be averaged or reduced. State and Federal Regulations Wetlands are also regulated by the Corps under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Any filling of Waters of the U.S., including wetlands (except isolated wetlands), would require notification and permits from the Corps. Wetland A may be considered non -isolated by the Corps. A formal isolated status inquiry should be requested from the Corps through the Jurisdictional Determination process to verify if any filling is proposed for Wetland A. Federally permitted actions that could affect endangered species (i.e. salmon or bull trout) may also require a biological assessment study and consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and/or the National Marine Fisheries Service. Application for Corps permits may also require an individual 401 Water Quality Certification and Coastal Zone Management Consistency determination from Ecology. In general, neither the Corps nor Ecology regulates wetland buffers, unless direct wetland impacts are proposed. When direct impacts are proposed, mitigated wetlands may be required to employ buffers based on Corps and Ecology joint regulatory guidance. Wetland Delineation Study — Harper Engineering S.
