Summary of Request: The applicant is requesting a Residential Design Modification for RMC 4-2-115E.1 "Garages"

greater than fifty percent (50%) of the width of the front fagade at ground level.

front porch entry with a railing to emphasizes the front
porches on the homes. We believe this design still
showcases the front porch as the focal point of the
house and deemphasizes the visual impact of the
garages.
Criteria for Modification of the Residential Design Standards
Renton Municipal Code, section 4-2-115, lists elements that are required to be included in all residential
development in the zones stated in subsection B of this Section. Each element includes both standards and
guidelines. Standards are provided for predictability. These standards specify a prescriptive manner in which the
requirement can be met. Guidelines for each element are provided for flexibility. These guidelines provide
direction for those who seek to meet the required element in a manner that is different from the standards.
a. The determination as to the satisfaction of the requirement through the use of the guidelines is to be
made by the Community and Economic Development Administrator when no other permit or
approval requires Hearing Examiner review.
b. When it has been determined that the proposed manner of meeting the design requirement through
guidelines is sufficient, the applicant shall have satisfied that design requirement.
I, the undersigned, declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington, that to the best of
my knowledge the above information is true and complete.
