Project Name: Westport Plan (With Basement) Residential Design Modification TACT INFORMATION, t, ble): Phone Number: 206-588-1147 x107 City: State/ Zip: Mercer Island WA/98040 NFORMATION Parcel dumber: Zoning Designation: Enclave: 142305-9023 & R4 142305-9122 Maertins Ranch (Concord): 0323059021 Project Location: Enclave: 14038156`h Ave SE, Renton 98059 Maertins Ranch (Concord): 1508 Ilwaco Ave NE, Renton 98059 Summary of Request; The applicant is requesting a Residential Design Modification for RMC 4-2-115E.1 "Garages" design for our Westport (with basement) within the Enclave and Maertins Ranch Plats. our garages are not recessed from the front of the house and/or front porch at least eight feet (8'), or sized so that they represent no greater than fifty percent (5090 of the width of the front fagade at ground level. Please:explain how your project proposal meets the "guidelines" for each:design element, rather than the standards. - Code Section: 4-2-115E.1. "Garages" Guidelines: The visual impact of garages shall be minimized, while porches and front doors shall be the emphasis of the front of the home. Garages shall be located in a manner that minimizes the presence of the garage and shall not be located at the end of view corridors. Alley access Is encouraged= If used, shared garages shall be within an acceptable walking distance to the housing unit it is intended to serve Compliance with Guidelines: Our garages are not recessed from the front of the house and/or front porch at least eight feet (8'), or sized so that they represent no greater than fifty percent (50%) of the width of the front fagade at ground level. We are not able to comply with this design standard as it is not consistent with American Classic Homes style and Is not consistent with the other homes we have built in Renton. We would like to propose building a 6- foot primary front porch entry with the 31 car bays and garage setback 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 8 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.
