Dear Mr. Whittle
The Planning Division of the City of Renton accepted the above master application for review on January
4, 2018. During our review, staff has determined that additional information is necessary in order to
proceed further.
The following information will need to be submitted before July 23, 2018 so that we may continue the
review of the above subject application:
Address the Renton Fire Authority comments from Corey Thomas, Fire Plans Reviewer:
o Update hammerhead turnaround to meet code required dimensions. Please see the
attached documents from the RFA and update all plans to reflect the correct dimensions.
o A minimum of one fire hydrant is required within 300-feet of the proposed buildings and
two hydrants if the fire flow goes up to 1,500 gpm. The existing fire hydrants are not
within 300 feet of the proposed new lot. A minimum of one new hydrant will be required.
Address Justin Johnson'
Address civil engineering comments from Justin Johnson, Civil Plans Reviewer:
o The Emergency overflow should be connected to the city storm system. If the applicant
chooses to route the overflow over the adjacent properties they will need to obtain a
drainage easement.
o Union Avenue NE is a Minor Arterial with existing right of way width of 60 feet. As per
Transportation section, the existing curb to curb width of 44 feet on Union Ave NE
frontage is sufficient. A new 0.5 foot wide curb, 8 feet wide landscaped planter, 8 feet
wide sidewalk, and 1 foot wide clear space behind the sidewalk is required to be
provided on the frontage by the developer. The project requires the dedication of 9.5
feet of right of way (subject to final survey). As per RMC 4-6-060, the half street
frontage improvements will be required to be built on Union Ave South by the
developer. Applicant will need to submit a street modification with the request to
reduce the cross section for Union Ave NE, as described above.
At this time, your project has been placed “on hold” pending receipt of the requested information. Please
contact me at (425) 430-7219 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Alex Morganroth
Associate Planner
