SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of a four-lot short plat and waiver of off-site improvements requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed lots consist of approximately 7600 square feet each. SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: Hearing Examiner: Approval with conditions. PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received REPORT: by the Examiner on March 15, 1977. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on March 22, 1977, at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were sworn. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1. Michael Smith, Planning Department, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following additional exhibits into the record: Exhibit #2: Letter from Ray Brown, dated February 22, 1977, regarding request for waiver. Exhibit #3: Proposed Short Plat Map. Exhibit #4: Letter from Utilities Division, dated March 2, 1977. Exhibit #5: Letter from Building Division, dated February 25, 1977. Exhibit #6: Letter from Fire Department, dated March 7, 1977. Mr. Brown, the applicant, who had not previously participated in the swearing in ceremony, was sworn in by the Examiner. The Examiner asked the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1. Mr. Brown indicated his concurrence. Short Plat #023-77 Page Two Waiver #024-77 The Examiner asked for additional testimony in favor of the application. There was no response. The Examiner asked for testimony in opposition to the application. Responding was: Mrs. Wayne Oyler 2132 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Oyler submitted a petition containing 20 signatures from residents residing on the east and west side of Harrington Place N.E., near the proposed site, which she read into the record. The petition stated that adjacent property owners objected to the short plat request for reasons of increased density, increase in traffic, and incompatibility of lot size with the surrounding properties. The petition suggested limiting the number of lots to three instead of the requested four lots. Mrs. Oyler inquired about the minimum lot size requirement in a G-7200 zone and expressed objection to the short plat being related to the duplexes in the adjacent area. Mr. Smith explained that the property in question is not zoned for duplexes, and that G-7200 zoning requires a minimum 7200 square foot lot size. Mrs. Oyler restated her objections to the increased density and lot size. Mr. Smith reported that the applicant must conform to the maximum lot coverage requirement of 35% along with front and rear setback requirements. The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition to the request. ‘Responding was: Mrs. Clara Monacelli 2200 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Monacelli inquired if the Traffic Engineering Division had been contacted regarding the increase of traffic on Harrington Place N.E. Mr. Smith reported that the division had no specific comments or objections. Mrs. Monacelli stated that the residents located at 2216 and 2200 Harrington Place N.E. owned half of the easement road, which had not been deeded to the City of Renton, and inquired about access to the subject site through the private easement road. The Examiner stated that because the remaining portion of the access street was public property, it would not be possible to prevent traffic from utilizing the entire width of the street. The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: Jane Keesecker 2124 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Keesecker stated that enhancement of the area would not occur with construction of less valuable houses on smaller lots than exist in the neighborhood. She felt that residents of the duplexes in the adjacent area would be encouraged to improve the appearance of the structures if the subject site were limited to three lots. She stated that construction of larger homes would be compatible with the existing homes and would enhance the area. Mrs. Keesecker indicated that the proposed lots were more compatible in size with the duplex zone than with lots in the subject G-7200 zone. The Examiner asked for further comments. There was no response from the audience. Short Plat #023-77 Page Three Waiver #024-77 The Examiner asked Mr. Brown, the applicant, if he had considered a three-lot configuration instead of the requested four lots even though the property were zoned G-7200 with minimum lot size of 7200 square feet. Mr. Brown reported that the cost of the sewer installation would prohibit limiting the number of lots to three and felt that the proposed installation would benefit the adjacent property owners. The Examiner inquired about the size of homes which would be constructed on the lots and Mr. Brown reported a figure of 1,300 to 1,400 square feet. The Examiner asked Mr. Brown if the construction plans allow for sufficient width and depth on the lot for the proposed homes. Mr. Brown reported that he had not had plans drawn for the structures to date. The Examiner referred to Item P.2, of the Planning Department report, regarding departmental approval of all building plans prior to construction and asked the applicant if he concurred in the requirement. Mr. Brown indicated his concurrence. The Examiner asked Mr. Brown if he had considered an alternative configuration for lot layout. Mr. Brown responded that he had not considered another configuration. Mrs. Oyler reported that the property was originally surveyed for 80 foot lots. The Examiner stated that the property may have been originally surveyed for larger lots, but the applicant is only required to meet the requirement in G-7200 zoning which requires 7200 square foot minimum lot size, with 65% open space required on each lot. Mrs. Oyler indicated that the depth of the lots of 122 feet allows conformance to the density requirement, but width was not compatible with neighboring lots. She also reported that sewer installation would not benefit the adjacent property owners because no further undeveloped property is available with the exception of the lot she presently owns. She indicated that she will restrict building on the 80 foot wide lot to one home. Mr. Smith suggested that an alternative for the neighboring property owners would be to form an LID to defray the applicant's sewer costs and benefit the adjacent properties. Mr. Brown anticipated that property owners would allow the latecomer fee deadline to expire and felt that the suggested alternative was not financially feasible. The Examiner noted that the city could only encourage the applicant to consider platting the property to three lots with the possibility of increasing the value, but it was not within the regulations of the city to require this stipulation. The Examiner suggested that an alternative for preventing objections to future development in regard to lot size, although it may be untimely for this particular development, would be to petition the City Council for rezoning to a larger zone classification. Mrs. Oyler responded that no future development in the area in question would occur because no further vacant property exists. The Examiner indicated that his comment referred to all property in the Highlands area, that the problem may reoccur, and rezoning would be an alternative in regulating lot size. Mr. Smith stated that the Planning Department symphathized with the residents to the north of the site and agreed that in field checking the general area and the area immediately surrounding the site, a larger lot size would be more compatible with the area. The Examiner restated that the property owner had a right to develop his property according to minimum code requirements, but encouraged Mr. Brown to review his costs and consider changing the configuration. The Examiner asked for further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on Item #023-77 and #024-77 was closed by the Examiner at 9:57 a.m. Short Plat #023-77 Page Four Waiver #024-77 FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1. The applicant is requesting approval of a four-lot short plat and waiver of off-site improvements that are requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed lots consist of an average of approximately 7600 square feet. The total area of the property is .9 acres. 2. The existing zoning is G-7200, minimum lot size 7200 square feet. This is the same residential category for minimum lot size ina major portion of the Highlands area. 3. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan designates this area as single family residential. 4. The subject property abuts duplex zoning, R-2, which is located to the south of the proposed short plat. Existing single family residences are located on the west, east and north of the subject site. 5. An existing 6-inch water main is located along N.E. 2lst Street and an eight-inch sanitary sewer exists at the dead end of Jefferson Avenue N.E. A small sanitary sewer extension will be required from Jefferson Avenue N.E. This extension should be an eight-inch sanitary sewer line with manholes extended across the frontage of the plat to city specifications. Sewer service will also require payment of connection permit fees and area assessments. 6. The City of Renton Planning Department has reviewed the application in regards to Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.2l.c. The subject proposal is exempt from the threshold determination and E.I.S. requirements of SEPA. However, the city, through various approvals, recommends that the applicant preserve as many Significant trees on the site as possible. 7. The proposed lots exceed the minimum size and dimension requirement of the G-7200 zone and Subdivision Ordinance. The average size of lots in the area range from sizes similar to the subject proposal to parcels containing approximately 10,000 square feet. The majority of the single family residential lots in the area are not served by sewers. 8. The applicant will be extending the sewer line to serve his proposed lots. 9. One-half of N.E. 2lst Street is developed, but it is ina relatively poor state of maintenance and condition. Standard off-site improvements do not exist in the general area. 10. The applicant stated that he has reviewed the Planning Department staff report and concurs in the recommendations of the Planning Department. ll. There were several members of the audience who reside in this area speaking in opposition to the short plat. A petition containing 20 signatures from adjacent residents opposing the short plat was also submitted. The primary objection from adjacent property owners is that the four lots proposed in the short plat, each consisting of approximately 7600 square feet, are not compatible with the larger lot size of property platted adjacent to the subject short plat. 12. The opposition also stated that limiting the proposed short plat to three lots would enhance the area and would allow the construction of larger homes which would be compatible with the existing homes in the area. oma den te THE ANCES EMT SURREY PARITET LSI OY OSA ORR T? D SPER MRE MEI ROT er pan ead ee Ey Lae 14. Short Plat #023-77 Page Five Waiver #024-77 Mr. Brown indicated that limiting the short plat to three lots was not economically feasible due to the cost of extending the sewer line to serve these lots. Mr. Brown maintained that this extension would provide available hookups to adjacent property owners when they require such facility. The opposition maintained that while the depth of the short plat of 122 feet would be in conformance with the depth of lots of adjacent property owners, the width of 62.5 feet was not compatible with the width of the adjacent lots, which exceed 80 feet in size. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, findings of fact, applicable policies and provisions and departmental recommendations in this matter, and this report is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report as set forth in full herein. CONCLUSIONS : Li Ze The proposed short plat exceeds the minimum lot size of 7200 square feet in the zone by approximately 400 square feet. A majority of the properties north of N.E. 2lst Street exceed 10,000 square feet in lot size. However, these lots are not served by sewer and rely on septic tanks for disposal of sewage. Two lots adjacent to the proposed short plat on the western property line and facing Harrington Place N.E. are approximately 7320 square feet. : The existing platted lot on the east side of the proposed short plat is 9680 square feet. With the proposed short plat, there would be seven lots east of Harrington Place N.E. and south of N.E. 2lst Street. Of this number, two existing platted lots would be approximately 7600 square feet. The proposed short plat lots would be approximately 7600 square feet and one lot would be compatible with the majority of the adjacent lots in this half of the block. Lots north of N.E. 21st Street, as previously stated, exceed approximately 10,000 square feet, consist of larger homes, and face lots of compatible size. These lots face Harrington Place N.E. and are located north of the subject short plat. The proposed request by adjacent neighbors to increase the lot sizes from 7600 square feet to 10,000 square feet would be a request that is in excess of the minimum lot size allowed by the underlying zone. The purpose of this zone is to establish a minimum lot size and to allow a variation of lot configurations with a minimum base set at 7200 square feet ranging to several acres. At this time, it would not seem reasonable to request the applicant to increase lot size above the minimum required standard. The alternative would be for residents in this area or other areas in the Highlands who desire larger lot size than 7200 square feet to apply for an area-wide rezone to a larger minimum lot size standard. Without the extension of the sewer line, the applicant would be required to exceed the minimum lot size of 7200 square feet to a size that would accommodate a septic tank. It can be assumed that by extending the sewer line, provision will be made for a facility that can be potentially used by the adjacent property owners in this area when they so desire. The cost of this extension is being borne entirely by the applicant at this time. The waiver as requested by the applicant of off-site improvements should be amended to a deferral of off-site improvements with restrictive covenants signed by the applicant that he would agree to participate in a future LID for installation of curbs, gutters and sidewalks.

Wildlife: The existing vegetation may provide suitable habitat for small mammals typical to this region, small rodents, and native birds. 5. Water: No surface water or significant ground water appears to exist on the subject site. 6. Land Use: The subject site is presently undeveloped, con- taining an existing stand of large evergreen trees. Duplex residential units are located directly south of the subject site. Existing single family residences are located west, east, and north of the subject site. The Red Samm surface mining site exists approximately 100 feet east of the sub- ject site.

OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS APPLICATION NO. W-024-77 IMPACTS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS: Development of the site will remove a certain amount of existing trees and vegetation. However, through proper design and lay- out representative numbers of existing trees may be retained. SOCIAL IMPACTS: Minor. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION: Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 as amended (RCW 43.21C), the subject proposal is exempt from the threshold determination and EIS requirements of SEPA. However, the City, through various approvals, can work with the applicant to pre- serve as much significant trees on the site as possible. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: A vicinity map and site map are attached. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED: City of Renton Engineering Division City of Renton Utilities Division City of Renton Building Division City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division City of Renton Fire Department OP Ww W N M r The above departments approved the applications. Copies of memos from certain departments are attached. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: 1. The proposed lots exceed the minimum size and dimension requirements of the G-7200 zone and Subdivision Ordinance. The average size of lots in the area ranges from sizes similar to the subject proposal to parcels approximately 10,000 square feet. 2. Many significant evergreen trees exist on the subject site. These should be incorporated as much as possible in the overall ,development of the site. 3. The proposed subdivision is compatible with surrounding single family residences and duplex development. 4. Presently only half of N.E. 21st Street is developed, but it is in very poor condition. Standard off-site improve- ments do not exist in the general area, and N.E. 21st termi- nates approximately 80 feet east of the subject site at the Red Samm surface mining site. It would appear that given these conditions, full street improvements on the entire 60 feet are not justified at this time. However, certain improvements are necessary adjacent to the proposed plat to enhance the new development and general character of the area. 5. The Utilities Division has indicated that sanitary sewer is available to the site from Jefferson Avenue N.E.

W-024-77 P, PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval of the short plat as proposed subject to: 1. Provision of sanitary sewer as required by the Utilities Division. 2. Site development plans for each lot shall be subject to review and approval of the Planning Department prior to issuance of a building permit. Retention of as many significant evergreen and deciduous trees shall be encouraged. Trees shall be removed only in accordance with the approval plan. 3. A fire hydrant shall be required within 500 feet of any residence as per Fire Department requirement. Recommend denial of waiver request and approval of an indefinite deferral of sidewalks only, subject to filing of restrictive covenants running with the land requiring participation of the subject property in any future LID for such improvements. The existing 30+ foot developed portion of N.E. 21st adjacent to the subject site shall be developed in accordance with City requirements, including pavement, curbs, and gutters. This requirement is felt to be compatible with the intent of the Subdivision Ordinance to encourage physical upgrading of residential areas. Utilities has no objections to this subdivision. The site has an existing 6'' steel water main along the frontage on N.E. 2lIst St. The developer should check with the Fire Dept. for any fire hydrant requirements. Water service is available upon payment of the current charges, area assessments and other hookup assessments. Sanitary sewers are not adjacent to the site. A small sanitary sewer extension is required off of the deadend of Jefferson Ave. N.E. This extension should be an 8'' sanitary sewer with manholes, extended across the frontage of the plat to City specifications. Sewer service will also require payment of connection permit fees and area assessments. ) nw” ° it __ / Lf Sf << Tr K Weg hl, if Vv PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT BUILDING DIVISION 235:-2540 MUNICIPAL BUILDING 200 MILL AVE.

Short Plat #023-77 os Waiver #024-77 LOCATION: Property located in the vicinity of N.E. 2lst St. and Harrington Place N.E. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of a four-lot short plat and waiver of off-site improvements requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed lots consist of approximately 7600 square feet each. SUMMARY OF Planning Department: Approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: Hearing Examiner: Approval with conditions. PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department staff report was received REPORT: by the Examiner on March 15, 1977. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on March 22, 1977, at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were sworn. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1. Michael Smith, Planning Department, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following additional exhibits into the record: Exhibit #2: Letter from Ray Brown, dated February 22, 1977, regarding request for waiver. Exhibit #3: Proposed Short Plat Map. Exhibit #4: Letter from Utilities Division, dated March 2, 1977. Exhibit #5: Letter from Building Division, dated February 25, 1977. Exhibit #6: Letter from Fire Department, dated March 7, 1977. Mr. Brown, the applicant, who had not previously participated in the swearing in ceremony, was sworn in by the Examiner. The Examiner asked the applicant if he concurred in Exhibit #1. Mr. Brown indicated his concurrence. C Short Plat #023-77 Page Two Waiver #024-77 The Examiner asked for additional testimony in favor of the application. There was no response. The Examiner asked for testimony in opposition to the application. Responding was: Mrs. Wayne Oyler 2132 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Oyler submitted a petition containing 20 signatures from residents residing on the east and west side of Harrington Place N.E., near the proposed site, which she read into the record. The petition stated that adjacent property owners objected to the short plat request for reasons of increased density, increase in traffic, and incompatibility of lot size with the surrounding properties. The petition suggested limiting the number of lots to three instead of the requested four lots. Mrs. Oyler inquired about the minimum lot size requirement in a G-7200 zone and expressed objection to the short plat being related to the duplexes in the adjacent area. Mr. Smith explained that the property in question is not zoned for duplexes, and that G-7200 zoning requires a minimum 7200 square foot lot size. Mrs. Oyler restated her objections to the increased density and lot size. Mr. Smith reported that the applicant must conform to the maximum lot coverage requirement of 35% along with front and rear setback requirements. The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: Mrs. Clara Monacelli 2200 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Monacelli inquired if the Traffic Engineering Division had been contacted regarding the increase of traffic on Harrington Place N.E. Mr. Smith reported that the division had no specific comments or objections. Mrs. Monacelli stated that the residents located at 2216 and 2200 Harrington Place N.E. owned half of the easement road, which had not been deeded to the City of Renton, and inquired about access to the subject site through the private easement road. The Examiner stated that because the remaining portion of the access street was public property, it would not be possible to prevent traffic from utilizing the entire width of the street. The Examiner asked for further testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: Jane Keesecker 2124 Harrington Place N.E. Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Keesecker stated that enhancement of the area would not occur with construction of less valuable houses on smaller lots than exist in the neighborhood. She felt that residents of the duplexes in the adjacent area would be encouraged to improve the appearance of the structures if the subject site were limited to three lots. She stated that construction of larger homes would be compatible with the existing homes and would enhance the area. Mrs. Keesecker indicated that the proposed lots were more compatible in size with the duplex zone than with lots in the subject G-7200 zone. The Examiner asked for further comments. There was no response from the audience. 4 Short Plat #023-77 Page Three Waiver #024-77 The Examiner asked Mr. Brown, the applicant, if he had considered a three-lot configuration instead of the requested four lots even though the property were zoned G-7200 with minimum lot size of 7200 square feet. Mr. Brown reported that the cost of the sewer installation would prohibit limiting the number of lots to three and felt that the proposed installation would benefit the adjacent property owners. The Examiner inquired about the size of homes which would be constructed on the lots and Mr. Brown reported a figure of 1,300 to 1,400 square feet. The Examiner asked Mr. Brown if the construction plans allow for sufficient width and depth on the lot for the proposed homes. Mr. Brown reported that he had not had plans drawn for the structures to date. The Examiner referred to Item P.2, of the Planning Department report, regarding departmental approval of all building plans prior to construction and asked the applicant if he concurred in the requirement. Mr. Brown indicated his concurrence. The Examiner asked Mr. Brown if he had considered an alternative configuration for lot layout. Mr. Brown responded that he had not considered another configuration. Mrs. Oyler reported that the property was originally surveyed for 80 foot lots. The Examiner stated that the property may have been Originally surveyed for larger lots, but the applicant is only required to meet the requirement in G-7200 zoning which requires 7200 square foot minimum lot size, with 65% open space required on each lot. Mrs. Oyler indicated that the depth of the lots of 122 feet allows conformance to the density requirement, but width was not compatible with neighboring lots. She also reported that sewer installation would not benefit the adjacent property owners because no further undeveloped property is available with the exception of the lot she presently owns. She indicated that she will restrict building on the 80 foot wide lot to one home. Mr. Smith suggested that an alternative for the neighboring property owners would be to form an LID to defray the applicant's sewer costs and benefit the adjacent properties. Mr. Brown anticipated that property owners would allow the latecomer fee deadline to expire and felt that the suggested alternative was not financially feasible. The Examiner noted that the city could only encourage the applicant to consider platting the property to three lots with the possibility of increasing the value, but it was not within the regulations of the city to require this stipulation. The Examiner suggested that an alternative for preventing objections to future development in regard to lot size, although it may be untimely for this particular development, would be to petition the City Council for rezoning to a larger zone classification. Mrs. Oyler responded that no future development in the area in question would occur because no further vacant property exists. The Examiner indicated that his comment referred to all property in the Highlands area, that the problem may reoccur, and rezoning would be an alternative in regulating lot size. Mr. Smith stated that the Planning Department symphathized with the residents to the north of the site and agreed that in field checking the general area and the area immediately surrounding the site, a larger lot size would be more compatible with the area. The Examiner restated that the property owner had a right to develop his property according to minimum code requirements, but encouraged Mr. Brown to review his costs and consider changing the configuration. The Examiner asked for further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on Item #023-77 and #024-77 was closed by the Examiner at 9257 aM. Miabdet % Short Plat #023-77 Page Four Waiver #024-77 FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: Ls 10. 11. 2s The applicant is requesting approval of a four-lot short plat and waiver of off-site improvements that are requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed lots consist of an average of approximately 7600 square feet. The total area of the property is .9 acres. The existing zoning is G-7200, minimum lot size 7200 square feet. This is the same residential category for minimum lot size ina major portion of the Highlands area. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan designates this area as single family residential. The subject property abuts duplex zoning, R-2, which is located to the south of the proposed short plat. Existing single family residences are located on the west, east and north of the subject site. An existing 6-inch water main is located along N.E. 21st Street and an eight-inch sanitary sewer exists at the dead end of Jefferson Avenue N.E. A small Sanitary sewer extension will be required from Jefferson Avenue N.E. This extension should be an eight-inch sanitary sewer line with manholes extended across the frontage of the plat to city specifications. Sewer service will also require payment of connection permit fees and area assessments. The City of Renton Planning Department has reviewed the application in regards to Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, as amended by R.C.W. 43.21.c. The subject proposal is exempt from the threshold determination and E.I.S. requirements of SEPA. However, the city, through various approvals, recommends that the applicant preserve as many Significant trees on the site as possible. The proposed lots exceed the minimum size and dimension requirement of the G-7200 zone and Subdivision Ordinance. The average size of lots in the area range from sizes similar to the subject proposal to parcels containing approximately 10,000 square feet. The majority of the single family residential lots in the area are not served by sewers. The applicant will be extending the sewer line to serve his proposed lots. One-half of N.E. 21st Street is developed, but it is ina relatively poor state of maintenance and condition. Standard off-site improvements do not exist in the general area. The applicant stated that he has reviewed the Planning Department staff report and concurs in the recommendations of the Planning Department. There were several members of the audience who reside in this area speaking in opposition to the short plat. A petition containing 20 signatures from adjacent residents opposing the short plat was also submitted. The primary objection from adjacent property owners is that the four lots proposed in the short plat, each consisting of approximately 7600 square feet, are not compatible with the larger lot size of property platted adjacent to the subject short plat. The opposition also stated that limiting the proposed short plat to three lots would enhance the area and would allow the construction of larger homes which would be compatible with the existing homes in the area. sinensis AP UNH aN OER AEE CURR HY r . eeyyents P a dsc bacco i eos 4 Short Plat #023-77 Page Five Waiver #024-77 13. Mr. Brown indicated that limiting the short plat to three lots was not economically feasible due to the cost of extending the sewer line to serve these lots. Mr. Brown maintained that this extension would provide available hookups to adjacent property owners when they require such facility. The opposition maintained that while the depth of the short plat of 122 feet would be in conformance with the depth of lots of adjacent property owners, . the width of 62.5 feet was not compatible with the width of the adjacent lots, which exceed 80 feet in size. 14. The Planning Department report accurately sets forth the issues, findings of fact, applicable policies and provisions and departmental recommendations in this matter, and this report is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report as set forth in full herein. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The proposed short plat exceeds the minimum lot size of 7200 square feet in the zone by approximately 400 square feet. 2. A majority of the properties north of N.E. 2lst Street exceed 10,000 square feet in lot size. However, these lots are not served by sewer and rely on septic tanks for disposal of sewage. Two lots adjacent to the proposed short plat on the western property line and facing Harrington Place N.E. are approximately 7320 square feet. . 3. The existing platted lot on the east side of the proposed short plat is 9680 square feet. With the proposed short plat, there would be seven lots east of Harrington Place N.E. and south of N.E. 21st Street. Of this number, two existing platted lots would be approximately 7600 square feet. The proposed short plat lots would be approximately 7600 square feet and one lot would be compatible with the majority of the adjacent lots in this half of the block. Lots north of N.E. 21st Street, as previously stated, exceed approximately 10,000 square feet, consist of larger homes, and face lots of compatible size. These lots face Harrington Place N.E. and are located north of the subject short plat. 4. The proposed request by adjacent neighbors to increase the lot sizes from 7600 square feet to 10,000 square feet would be a request that is in excess of the minimum lot size allowed by the underlying zone. The purpose of this zone is to establish a minimum lot size and to allow a variation of lot configurations with a minimum base set at 7200 square feet ranging to several acres. At this time, it would not seem reasonable to request the applicant to increase lot size above the minimum required standard. The alternative would be for residents in this area or other areas in the Highlands who desire larger lot size than 7200 square feet to apply for an area-wide rezone to a larger minimum lot size standard. 5. Without the extension of the sewer line, the applicant would be required to exceed the minimum lot size of 7200 square feet to a size that would accommodate a septic tank. It can be assumed that by extending the sewer line, provision will be made for a facility that can be potentially used by the adjacent property owners in this area when they so desire. The cost of this extension is being borne entirely by the applicant at this time. 6. The waiver as requested by the applicant of off-site improvements should be amended to a deferral of off-site improvements with restrictive covenants signed by the applicant that he would agree to participate in a future LID for installation of curbs, gutters and sidewalks.

These should be incorporated as much as possible in the overall development of the site. 3. The proposed subdivision is compatible with surrounding single family residences and duplex development. 4. Presently only half of N.E. 21st Street is developed, but it is in very poor condition. Standard off-site improve- ments do not exist in the general area, and N.E. 21st termi- nates approximately 80 feet east of the subject site at the Red Samm surface mining site. It would appear that given these conditions, full street improvements on the entire 60 feet are not justified at this time. However, certain improvements are necessary adjacent to the proposed plat to enhance the new development and general character of the area. 5.

Site development plans for each lot shall be subject to review and approval of the Planning Department prior to issuance of a building permit. Retention of as many significant evergreen and deciduous trees shall be encouraged. Trees shall be removed only in accordance with the approval plan. 3.

The existing 30+ foot developed portion of N.E. 21st adjacent to the subject site shall be developed in accordance with City requirements, including pavement, curbs, and gutters. This requirement is felt to be compatible with the intent of the Subdivision Ordinance to encourage physical upgrading of residential areas. Utilities has no objections to this subdivision. The site has an existing 6'' steel water main along the frontage on N.E. 21st St. The developer should check with the Fire Dept. for any fire hydrant requirements. Water service is available upon payment of the current charges, area assessments and other hookup assessments. Sanitary sewers are not adjacent to the site.

E., object to the request for approval by Applicant, Ray Brown, of a four-lot short plat (Application 023-77) at the aforementioned location, because of the following reasons: We believe four lots (62.5! wide) with the subsequent four homes would make the appearance too dense, increase traffic, look out of place and not fit in esthetically to the surrounding area of homes and lots which are mostly 80! to 100' wide. Contrary to enhancing the beauty and value of our neighborhood, we believe four lots with the subsequent four homes would instead have the opposite effect and that the value of our homes would depreciate. Instead, we believe three lots (83.3! wide) would be better suited and appropriate for our neighborhood. It would make unnecessary po ia down of so many evergreen trees and, thereby, preserve more of the natural beauty of our area, keep the open, quiet and spacious feeling of our neighborhood with the accompanying privacy which are the reasons we, as homeowners y located and bought our homes in this area in the first place.

OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS APPLICATION NO. W-024-77 IMPACTS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS: Development of the site will remove a certain amount of existing trees and vegetation. However, through proper design and lay- out representative numbers of existing trees may be retained. SOCIAL_IMPACTS: Minor. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/THRESHOLD DETERMINATION: Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 as amended (RCW 43.21C), the subject proposal is exempt from the threshold determination and EIS requirements of SEPA. However, the City, through various approvals, can work with the applicant to pre- serve as much significant trees on the site as possible. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: A vicinity map and site map are attached. AGENCIES/DEPARTMENTS CONTACTED: City of Renton Engineering Division City of Renton Utilities Division City of Renton Building Division City of Renton Traffic Engineering Division City of Renton Fire Department OP wn r r The above departments approved the applications. Copies of memos from certain departments are attached. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: 1. The proposed lots exceed the minimum size and dimension requirements of the G-7200 zone and Subdivision Ordinance. The average size of lots in the area ranges from sizes similar to the subject proposal to parcels approximately 10,000 square feet. 2. Many significant evergreen trees exist on the subject site. These should be incorporated as much as possible in the overall development of the site. 3. The proposed subdivision is compatible with surrounding single family residences and duplex development. 4. Presently only half of N.E. 21st Street is developed, but it is in very poor condition.
