PUBLIC MEETING
Annexation: Anderson, 148th
Ave SE & SE 120th St
This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in
accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public meeting
to consider the proposed Anderson 10% Notice of Intent to Annex Petition for
approximately 19.75 acres, including the abutting 148th Ave. SE right-of-way,
located east of 148th Ave. SE and south of SE 120th St., abutting the Urban
Growth Area boundary on its north side.
Don Erickson, Senior Planner, stated that the site is within the East Renton
Plateau Potential Annexation Area and contains 14 single-family dwelling units.
The topography is essentially flat, with a wetland located in the southwest
corner of the site. Reviewing the public services, he noted that the site is served
by Water District #90; that roadway and stormwater improvements are likely;
and fire service, currently supplied by Fire District #10, will convert to the City
of Renton upon annexation.
Mr. Erickson explained that existing King County zoning is R-4 (Residential -
four dwelling units per gross acre). Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates
the site as Residential Low Density, for which R-4 (Residential - four dwelling
units per net acre) zoning is proposed. Regarding the fiscal impact of the
proposed annexation, he reported that the City will realize a surplus of $44,018
December 15, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 465
at full development, assuming an increase to 59 single-family homes and an
assessed home valuation of $300,000. He also noted the one-time estimated
expense of $63,000 for the acquisition and development of parks. Mr. Erickson
concluded by stating that the proposed annexation will further City business
goals, is consistent with City policies for annexation, and meets Boundary
Review Board objectives.
Public comment was invited.
Keith and Kristine Childs, 12004 148th Ave. SE, 98059, objected to the
annexation of their property to the City of Renton for the following reasons: the
costs associated with hooking-up to Renton's sewer service, paying for
unwanted City amenities such as libraries and parks, and the increase in density.
Jon Newman, 8070 Langston Rd. S., Seattle, 98178, stated that his family owns
1.93 acres in the proposed annexation area, and expressed his support for the
annexation.
There being no further public comment, it was MOVED BY PARKER,
SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC MEETING.
CARRIED.
MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL: ACCEPT
THE 10% NOTICE OF INTENT TO ANNEX PETITION, AUTHORIZE
CIRCULATION OF THE 50% PETITION TO ANNEX, REQUIRE THE
ADOPTION OF CITY ZONING ON THE PROPERTY CONSISTENT WITH
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND REQUIRE THAT PROPERTY
OWNERS ASSUME A PROPORTIONAL SHARE OF THE CITY'S
BONDED INDEBTEDNESS. CARRIED.
PUBLIC HEARING
Planning: Multi-Family
Property Tax Exemption
This being the date set and proper notices having been posted and published in
accordance with local and State laws, Mayor Tanner opened the public hearing
to consider the designation of residential targeted areas for Washington State's
multi-family property tax exemption provided for under RCW (Revised Code of
Washington) 84.14.
Mark Santos-Johnson, Economic Development Specialist, explained that
utilizing Washington State's property tax exemption means eligible multi-family
housing projects such as apartments or condominiums would be able to receive
a partial property tax exemption for up to ten years as an added financial
incentive for developers to create multi-family housing projects. The tax
exemption applies to the value of qualified new housing construction after
completion, but does not apply to the value of the land, any existing
improvements, or any non-housing related improvements. Mr. Santos-Johnson
stated that the tax exemption also applies to all levels of the ad valorem property
tax, including city, county, state, and local taxing districts; and for projects in
Renton, this amounts to $11.10 per $1,000 of assessed value for 2003. He
added that the value of the property tax exemption will vary greatly depending
on the nature, quality, and costs of each multi-family housing project.
Mr. Santos-Johnson reviewed the proposed residential targeted areas for the tax
exemption as follows:
• The Center Downtown (CD), Residential Multi-Family Urban Center (RM-
U), and Residential Multi-Family Traditional (RM-T) zones in the Center
Downtown Comprehensive Plan designation;
• The Urban Center-North District 1 (UC-N 1) zone in the Urban Center-
North Comprehensive Plan designation; and
December 15, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 466
• The Center Suburban (CS), Residential Multi-Family Suburban Center
(RM-C), and Residential - ten dwelling units per acre (R-10) zones in the
Center Village Comprehensive Plan designations.
Continuing, Mr. Santos-Johnson explained that eligible projects must be located
in designated targeted areas; must be new construction rental or owner-occupied
multi-family housing with four or more housing units in each building; must
have a minimum number of housing units (minimum of 10 units in lower
density zones and minimum of 30 units in higher density zones); must be
mixed-used if located in the CD or UC-N 1 zones, or in the CS zone within the
Center Village Comprehensive Plan designation; and must comply with urban
center overlay design standards and guidelines.
Mr. Santos-Johnson described the process applicants must undergo to receive
the property tax exemption, and he reviewed the proposed application fees. In
conclusion, he recommended Council adopt the designated residential targeted
areas for the proposed property tax exemption for eligible multi-family housing
projects, noting that the proposed ordinance includes a provision that projects
will not be accepted after 12/31/2006 unless otherwise extended by the City
Council.
In response to Councilman Clawson's inquiry, Mr. Santos-Johnson confirmed
that if an applicant's project resides in a targeted area and meets the eligibility
requirements, the applicant is entitled to the property tax exemption. He noted
that the Economic Development Administrator is responsible for overseeing the
application process, and Council reviews and has final say for each project.
Councilmembers Clawson, Briere, and Corman expressed their support for the
tax exemption, noting that it will aid in drawing more people to live in the
downtown area, encourage new construction, and benefit the contractors.
Responding to Council comments, Economic Development, Neighborhoods and
Strategic Planning Administrator Alex Pietsch pointed out that several multi-
family housing projects in the downtown area have been proposed, but for
various reasons have not moved forward. He indicated that the property tax
exemption may stimulate those projects.
In response to Council President Keolker-Wheeler's inquiry regarding assessing
tax on mixed-use projects, Mr. Santos-Johnson explained that for the final
application, applicants are required to submit a variety of reports including a
break down of their costs to separate the difference between qualified housing
improvements and non-housing or mixed-use commercial uses. King County
would use that information for determining the value of the exempted property.
Public comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY PARKER,
SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
CARRIED. (See page 470 for Planning & Development Committee report.)

Separate Consideration
Item 8.c.
Planning: Primary Use Surface
Parking Lots Development
Economic Development, Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning Department
recommended adoption of a resolution that declares a six-month moratorium on
the development of primary use surface parking lots, including commercial lots,
park and ride lots, and lots serving transit facilities; and sets a public hearing
December 15, 2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 468
Moratorium date of 1/12/2004.
At the request of Council President Keolker-Wheeler, Economic Development,
Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning Administrator Alex Pietsch gave a
briefing on the proposed moratorium. He noted that City staff has discussed,
with no result, the leasing of parking spaces at the new City Center Parking
garage for commuters with Sound Transit and King County Metro.
Additionally, he noted that the now-closed K-Mart parking lot on Rainier Ave.
S. is being used as a park and ride until McLendon Hardware commences
construction of its new store on that same site. With this in mind, Mr. Pietsch
explained that King County is now seeking permits for a new surface parking
park and ride facility on property located adjacent to Fred Meyer along Rainier
Ave. S.
Upon review of City Code, it was found that although transit center and surface
parking as a primary use is defined in City Code, a park and ride facility as a
use is not defined. Mr. Pietsch emphasized that the use of surface parking lots
on commercially viable land in the business core is an inefficient land use, and
he noted the importance of the location and design of such lots. Therefore, staff
needs time to review policies and criteria, and to prepare and present proposed
changes to the Comprehensive Plan and zoning.
Reporting that City staff met with King County staff today to discuss the use of
the City Center Parking garage, Mr. Pietsch indicated that they seemed
interested, but made no promises. Meanwhile, King County is in due diligence
to buy the property from Fred Meyer. In conclusion, Mr. Pietsch stated that a
moratorium is needed to give the City time to review policies and criteria, and
time to continue discussions with King County regarding the use the City's
parking garage.
Reporting that she attended the meeting with King County, Transportation
Systems Director Sandra Meyer stated that King County seemed responsive,
and she believed an agreement may be possible. In response to Councilman
Clawson's inquiry regarding the park and ride spaces at Metropolitan Place, Ms.
Meyer stated that King County leases 150 spaces, and reports that 30 to 50
spaces are not being used at this time.
Mayor Tanner noted that when commuters are unable to use the old K-Mart
parking lot, there will be a demand for more parking spaces. Ms. Meyer added
that King County will encounter a shortage of 80 to 85 spaces when the parking
lot is closed.
Councilman Corman stated his support for the moratorium, as it would allow
time for further discussions with King County about the City Center Parking
garage. Councilman Persson also expressed his support for the moratorium,
noting that current zoning allows surface parking lots in prime commercial
locations.
Mr. Pietsch explained that the moratorium only applies to all primary use
surface parking lots throughout the City, and does not apply to accessory
parking lots developed as part of permits for other land use activities.

CONSENT AGENDA ITEM 8.c. AS PRESENTED. CARRIED. (See page

CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT. CARRIED.
Annexation: Bales, SE 128th
St
Council President Keolker-Wheeler presented a Committee of the Whole report
regarding the Bales Annexation zoning. The Committee recommended that
Council adopt R-1 (Residential - one dwelling unit per acre) zoning under the
Residential Low Density Comprehensive Plan land use designation. This
recommendation is based upon the City Attorney's letter of September 26, 2003,
in which he opines that since the R-5 (Residential - five dwelling units per acre)
zoning regulation was rejected by the electorate at the September 16, 2003,
Special Election, it can no longer be considered as part of the same annexation.
If the property owners desire consideration of R-5 zoning after the subject
properties are annexed into the City, they can request such a zoning change
through the Hearing Examiner. MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER,
