C. Project Description / Background.
The Richards property is located in the Residential 8 (R-8) Zone in Northeast Renton. The west side of the property fronts
on Lake Washington and the property is accessed on its east side by Lake Washington Boulevard, a public street. The
vicinity of the property is fully developed to urban standards.
The applicant has requested a variance from Renton Municipal Code 4-2-110A, "Development Standards for Single Family
Residential Zoning Designations." The minimum front yard setback in the Residential 8 Zone for a garage is 20 feet. The
applicant proposes a reduced setback of 5 feet for the garage.
Although the lot is approximately 10,000 sf, the buildable area is only 3,123 sf. This is due to the majority of the property
being submerged and the encroachment of a 10 foot wide road easement. A new residence is planned, with a building
footprint of 1,140 sf. This proposed structure would cover 36 percent of the buildable lot, and be within the standards for
lot coverage.
Lake Washington Boulevard is located parallel to the shore of Lake Washington and is a long-standing public road. It is
not, however, built to current City of Renton street standards. Its width in the vicinity of the proposed project varies
between 15 and 20 feet wide. Most of the lots in the area are narrow in configuration and associated structures may
encroach into the Burlington Northern Railroad Right -of -Way.
Findings, Conclusion, and Decision
Having reviewed the written record in the matter, the City now makes and enters the following:

Richards Setback Variance LUA06-151, V-A
REPORT OF JANUARY 22, 2007

D. Findings
1. Request: The Applicants, Darius and Vicki Richards, have requested approval for an Administrative
Variance for their property at 3605 Lake Washington Boulevard N. The variance is requested from RMC 4-2-
110A, which requires a 20 foot garage setback from the property line along a fronting and access street. The
applicant is requesting a variance in order to reduce the garage setback to 5 feet.
2. Administrative Variance: The applicant's administrative variance application complies with the
requirements for information for a variance. The applicant's site plan and other project drawings are entered as
Exhibit 2.
3. Existing Land Use: Land uses surrounding the subject site include: North: R-8 zone, developed as single-
family residential; South: R-8 zone, developed as single-family residential; East: Lake Washington Boulevard N
and BNSF Railroad Right-of-way; and West: Lake Washington.
4. Consistency with Variance Criteria: Section 4-31-19F.3. lists four criteria that the zoning Administrator is
asked to consider, along with all other relevant information, in making a decision on an Administrative Variance
application. These include the following:
a. That the applicant suffers undue hardship and the variance is necessary because of special
circumstances applicable to subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or
surroundings of the subject property, and the strict application of the Zoning Code is found to deprive
subject property owner of rights and privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and
under identical zone classification:
The site is similar to most of the parcels that front along Lake Washington Boulevard in !Northeast Renton.
These properties are all zoned Residential 8, all have submerged lands, and all are heavily impacted by their
proximity to both the Lake and the railroad right-of-way. if the zoning code were to be strictly applied to this
and other properties in the same situation, very little buildable land would be available. The applicant has not
requested a reduced setback for the primary structure, just the garage. If the applicant is denied a variance to
allow reduced garage setback, he would also be denied privileges granted other property owners in the vicinity
in the R-8 zone.
b. That the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which subject property is
situated:
Granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or
improvements in the vicinity and zone in which subject property is situated. The City of Renton development
regulations require a 20 foot setback for garages in order to create space for vehicles to park, in front of the
garage, in the event that the garage is unavailable due to lack of interior space. The impact of a 5 foot garage
setback would be that the applicant would have to have the garage available for vehicular parking.
c. That approval shall not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon
uses of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated:
Granting the variance, as explained above, would allow the applicant to do what is allowed in the vicinity of the
subject property and elsewhere along the Lake Washington shoreline.
d. That the approval as determined by the Zoning Administrator is a minimum variance that will
accomplish the desired purpose:
Reduction of the 20 foot garage setback to 5 feet would accomplish the desired purpose by allowing increased
area for the primary structure.

REPORT OF JANUARY 2Z 2007

E. Conclusions
1. The subject site is located at 3605 Lake Washington Boulevard N in the R-8, single-family residential zone.
2. The City of Renton Development Standards, RMC 4-2-110A require a 20 foot garage setback from the front
property line at the accessing street.
3. The recommendation of staff is to approve the variance request because it meets the variance criteria found in
RMC 4-9-25085 and would be consistent with the development pattern in the vicinity of the site.
4. Analysis of the proposal according to the variance criteria can be found in section D above.
F. Decision
The Administrative Variance for the Richards Garage Setback Variance File No. LUA06-151, V-A, is approved.

Land Use Action Appeals
I's,�
Date
The administrative land use decision will become final if the decision is not appealed within 14 days of the date of approval. An
appeal of the decision must be filed within the 14 day appeal period (RCW 43.21.C.075(3); WAC 197-11-680). An appeal to the
Hearing Examiner is governed by Title IV, Section 4-8-11.13, which requires that such appeals be filed directly with the Hearing
Examiner. Appeals must be made in writing on or before 5.00 PM on February 5, 2007. Any appeal must be accompanied by a
$75.00 fee and other specific requirements.
THE APPEARANCE OF FAIRNESS DOCTRINE provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may occur
concerning the land use decision. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial decision, but to Appeals to the Hearing Examiner as well.
All communications after the decision/approval date must be made in writing through the Hearing Examiner. All communications are
public record and this permits all interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut
the evidence in writing. Any violation of this doctrine could result in the invalidation of the appeal by the Court.

Kelle,
Between the two I think that should be ok...we always check the title
reports for restrictions, but if you have a listing from the title
company, that should suffice. At the very least it should be ok to get
the paperwork in the door, and it the planner needs more information
she can contact you. Either Laureen or I will do the intake and if I
don't do it you can explain the conversation to Laureen...I'll try and
remember to pass on this conversation to her!
Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Andrea.
We do have one more question. We noticed, in #3 of the Variance
Submittal
Requirements, the request for a title report documenting ownership and
listing all encumbrances. Darius owns the property out -right, and has
a
reconveyance deed. Will that suffice as proof of ownership? We also
have a
listing from the title company for insurance that lists all of the
encumbrances.
Will these two documents satisfy Requirement #3 in the variance
application
please?
Please let me know —and then I think we're almost ready to bring the
application in!
`thanks again,

RE ft
Variance Justification for the Richards Property
A front garage setback variance, exclusively for the garage, is requested for the proposed
new home at 3605 Lake Washington Blvd. North. The specific request is to reduce the standard
20'-0" front garage setback requirement to 5'-0", as measured from the eastern property line. The
primary structure and attached decks will conform to the front setback averaging provisions.
The following justifications are offered in support of this request:
The applicant for this variance suffers undue hardship and the variance is necessary
because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape and
surrounding features. The strict application of the Building Code will deprive the owner of the right
and privilege of re -developing his site to its fullest potential. This is a right and privilege that is
enjoyed by property owners throughout the surrounding neighborhood.
The buildable (non -submerged) portion of the applicant's lot is 40 feet wide x 76 feet deep
from the west boundary of the access road to the shoreline of Lake Washington. This road is not
a public street, but it is the access for this residence, and for the other homes along this portion of
the shoreline. Because the road and the shoreline run at an angle to true north -south, all the lots
here are in the shape of a parallelogram.
The strict application of the 20 foot setback from the road easement, along with the
required 25 foot setback from the shoreline, reduces the depth of the building footprint for this lot
to only 31 feet.
The primary hardship caused by the narrow, irregular shape of the property and its
confinement between the access road and the lakeshore is that the allowable building footprint
would be only 31 feet x 30 feet. This would severely limit the size and layout of the combined
home and garage, and make it an oddity compared with the neighboring structures, most of which
have garages that are built close to the road's western easement line. The applicant would thus
be deprived of the opportunity to utilize his lot in the same manner as has been granted to his
neighbors. Nome values would be adversely affected, both for the applicant and for his
neighbors_
A secondary consideration is that placement of the garage 20 feet from the road would
create an isolation of this property in relation to the neighboring properties. Currently, most of the
home & garage structures are in close alignment along the lane, allowing all residents to easily
observe vehicles or persons who are not resident in the neighborhood.
The granting of this variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to
the property or Improvements in the immediate vicinity. In fact, the neighborhood residents will all
benefit by no longer having to look at the unsightly carport (which now extends T-7" into the road
easement) and the on -street parking that currently exists at this address.
The approval of this variance will not constitute the granting of a special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations placed on other uses in the immediate vicinity. As noted
previously, virtually all the garagesthomes on this lane, including the existing structure, have been
built with minimal setback from the road. Please refer to the accompanying photos (Exhibit B).
By applying the 20 ft. setback standard to the proposed garage, the proposed structure would
actually be held to a separate standard inconsistent with the neighborhood.
This variance, if approved, is the minimum required to accomplish the desired purpose of
maintaining the community's look and character, while providing the owner the opportunity to
upgrade bis property as his neighbors have been allowed to do. Application of the 20 fo t 9"KT_
standard would cause an obvious mismatch between the proposed garage/home and {iIn.
�l3fi5� `
properties_
Nov 3 �
ViECEIVED
In summary, we encourage the approval of the variance to reduce the standard front
garage setback requirement from 20'-0" to 5'-0", as measured from the eastern property line. By
approving this variance we believe that the mechanics and character of the neighborhood will be
preserved. This is a well established neighborhood; most properties have been substantially
upgraded within the past 10-20 years, and little further change is expected over the next 3-4
decades. Approving this variance will maintain the existing standard of the neighborhood, remove
the hardship that would be caused by strict adherence to the standard, will not be detrimental to
surrounding homes, and is the minimum variance required to meet this purpose.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
New Richards Residence at 3605 Lake Washington Blvd. N.
The Richards residence, a single-family home, will be 2,447 square feet, with two stories
and a basement. The property is on the east shore of Lake Washington, approx. 100 feet north
of the Kennydale Beach Park_ The total lot size is approx. 10,000 square feet; the buildable
portion, which excludes the submerged lands and the 10' wide road easement, is 3,123 sq. ft.
The footprint of the proposed home is 1,140 s.f_; thus, the home will cover 36% of the buildable
lot.
The property is not on a typical city street. Instead, the site is served by a paved road
varying from 15'-0" to 20'-0" wide; this road runs approximately north -south on the eastern side
of the homes that are along the shoreline. In addition to the homes, the road also provides
access to the Kennydale Beach. This property, along with all of the homes on the access lane,
share the unique challenges of narrow, oddly shaped lots and minimal distance between the
shoreline and the access lane boundary. The project has already been approved for a Shoreline
Exemption (see attachment).
The existing home, a 1500 s.f. daylight rambler, will be completely removed, along with
the 430 s.f. attached deck. The new home will be oriented on the lot so that its north and south
sides are parallel to, and 5 feet away from, the north and south property lines_ It will include an
internal garage, thus eliminating the need for the existing carport and outdoor parking along the
access lane.
The existing home and the majority of the other lakeside homes on the street abut the
road easement, or are very close to it. The eastem boundary of the Richards' lot is coincident
with the western boundary of the road easement, and in fact, the SE corner of the Richards'
existing carport actually extends 19" into the road easement_ The footprint of the proposed home
& garage will be parallelogram -shaped, approximately 31' x 42'. This footprint will meet all
setback requirements except for the garage, which will have a minimum front setback of 5'-0"
from the East property line. The front yard garage setback of 5'-0" from the Eastern property line
is the only variance needed for this project. The primary structure and attached decks will
conform to the front setback averaging provisions.
Work will occur between December 2006 and October 2007. Other permits that will be
required for this project include; Side Sewer Capping, Demolition, and Building Permit. The
height of the proposed residence will conform to standard City Code; no height variance is
requested.
This site has no steep slopes, or other special features , other than the presence of Lake
Washington to the west of the building site. The existing shoreline on this lot will not be
disturbed; it consists of a concrete bulkhead, in good condition. The existing dock and
boathouse are also in good condition.
The total estimated construction cast for the new house is $440,000. The estimated fair
market value of the house, including an est. market value of $500,000 for the land, will be
$1.1 million_
There will be approximately 120 cubic yards of soil exported from the site (disposal site
to be determined and identified prior to exportation)..
No trees will be removed from the site. In fact, the NW comer of the proposed house
has been situated and designed specifically to provide ample living space for a stately 75 year- N

0 3t20
Off -site improvements are not anticipated, since the home is replacing an existing
structure. Therefore, there will be no additional service requirements.
In summary, we are requesting a front yard setback variance exclusively for the
garage; to reduce the standard 20'-0" front garage setback requirement to V-0„, as measured
from the Eastern property line. This requested variance is consistent with the neighborhood and
also meets the requirements of the Code.

An exemption from a Shoreline Management Substantial Development Permit is hereby granted
on the proposed project described on the attached form for the following reason(s):
DEVELOP AS R P OIN
DV
Nou 3 0 70
xx Construction on s,.—relands by an owner, lessee or contract purchaser of a single-
family residence for his/her own use or for the use of his/her family, which residence
does not exceed a height of thirty-five (35) feet above average grade level and which
meets all requirements of the State agency or local government having jurisdiction
thereof, other than requirements imposed pursuant to this chapter.
1. "Single family" residence means a detached dwelling designed for and
occupied by one family including those structures and developments within a
contiguous ownership which are a normal appurtenance. An "appurtenance" is
necessarily connected to the use and enjoyment of a single-family residence
and is located landward of the ordinary high water mark and the perimeter of a
wetland. On a statewide basis, normal appurtenances include a garage; deck;
driveway; utilities; fences; installation of a septic tank and drainfield and grading
which does not exceed two hundred fifty cubic yards and which does not involve
placement of fill in any wetland or waterward of the ordinary highwater mark.
2. Construction authorized under this exemption shall be located landward of
the ordinary high water mark.
The granting of the shoreline exemption is not intended to serve as an approval of the submitted
site plan for the proposed single family residence. The applicant may be required to request a
separate approval for the proposed reduction of the required front yard setback under a Setback
Variance application. The proposed development is consistent or inconsistent with (check one):

We are pleased to present this geotechnical engineering report for your new residence to be
constructed in Renton. The scope of our services consisted of exploring site surface and
subsurface conditions, and then developing this report to provide recommendations for general
earthwork and design criteria for foundations, retaining walls, subsurface drainage. This work was
authorized by your acceptance of our proposal, P-7030, dated April 20, 2006.
The attached report contains a discussion of the study and our recommendations. Please contact
us if there are any questions regarding this report, or for further assistance during the design and
construction phases of this project.

GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING STUDY
Proposed Richards Residence
3605 Lake Washington Boulevard North
Renton, Washington
This report presents the findings and recommendations of our geotechnical engineering study for
the site of the proposed single-family residence to be located in Renton.
Development of the property is in the planning stage, and detailed plans were not made available
to us. We understand that the existing residence is to be demolished and a new residence
approximately the same size is to be built in its place. Deep excavation, such as for a basement, is
not planned.
If the scope of the project changes from what we have described above, we should be provided
with revised plans in order to determine if modifications to the recommendations and conclusions of
this report are warranted.
SITE CONDITIONS
SURFACE
The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site in Renton. The lot is
rectangular in shape and located between Lake Washington Boulevard North and Lake
Washington. The property gently slopes from Lake Washington Boulevard North down to the lake,
a total elevation change of approximately 4 feet, and is currently occupied by a two-story, single-
family residence. The western side of the property is covered by a grass lawn and a dock has
been extended out into the lake from the southwest corner. A paved driveway provides access to
the residence from Lake Washington Boulevard North to the east; new single-family residences
bound the site to the north and south.
SUBSURFACE
The subsurface conditions were explored by drilling one test boring at the approximate location
shown on the Site Exploration Plan, Plate 2. Our exploration program was based on the proposed
construction, anticipated subsurface conditions and those encountered during exploration, and the
scope of work outlined in our proposal_ We previously drilled borings for a geotechnical study prior
to construction of the new Fife residence to the north.
The boring was drilled on May 8, 2006 using a portable Acker drill. This drill system utilizes a
small, gasoline -powered engine to advance a hollow -stem auger to the sampling depth. Samples
were taken at regular intervals with a standard penetration sampler. This split -spoon sampler,
which has a 2-inch outside diameter, is driven into the soil with a 140-pound hammer falling 30
inches. The number of blows required to advance the sampler a given distance is an indication of
the soil density or consistency. A geotechnical, engineer from our staff observed the r' 'gp0
process, logged the test boring, and obtained representative samples of the soil enc, p

Soil Conditions
JN 06151
Page 2
Our first attempt at drilling encountered medium -dense silty sand with occasional gravels to
a depth of 11 feet below grade. This boring could not be advanced beyond 11 feet due to
heaving sands and gravels. Our second attempt to get deeper than the first boring was
repositioned approximately 7 feet south of the first boring location. During drilling we
encountered much of the same material as in the first boring, however, we were able to get
to 13.5 feet before the heaving sands and gravels prevented us from continuing further_
We have worked on other projects in the area and were able to use the information from
those explorations to supplement our boring. Our previous borings encountered dense
glacial till -like soils within 6 to 11 feet of the surface underlying loose sands and medium -
stiff silts,
No obstructions were revealed by our exploration. However, debris, buried utilities, and old
foundation and slab elements are commonly encountered on sites that have had previous
development.
Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater seepage was observed at a depth of 3 feet. The heaving conditions indicate
that the groundwater may be under some pressure. The boring was left open for only a
short time period. Therefore, the seepage levels on the logs represent the location of
transient water seepage and may not indicate the static groundwater level. Groundwater
levels encountered during drilling can be deceptive, because seepage into the boring can
be blocked or slowed by the auger itself.
it should be noted that groundwater levels vary seasonally with rainfall and other factors.
Groundwater levels will rise and fall seasonally with fluctuations in the level of Lake
Washington.
The stratification lines on the log represent the approximate boundaries between soil types at the
exploration location. The actual transition between soil types may be gradual, and subsurface
conditions can vary away from the exploration location. The log provides specific subsurface
information only at the location tested. If a transition in soil type occurred between samples in the
boring, the depth of the transition was interpreted. The relative densities and moisture descriptions
indicated on the boring log are interpretive descriptions based on the conditions observed during
drilling.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

and variable in composition. Based on the information that we were able to obtain from the
surrounding properties and from our experience with the soils in the area, we recommend that the
new residence be supported by a deep foundation system such as small -diameter pipe piles. Pipe
piles were used to support the Fife resident to the north.
The adjacent houses are supported on conventional foundations that bear on slightly compressible
soils. As a result, it is likely that they could undergo excessive settlement. We have observed
excessive settlement of older homes nearby. There is always some risk associated with demolition
and foundation construction near structures such as this. It is imperative that unshored
excavations do not extend below a 2:1 (Horizontai:Vertical) imaginary bearing zone sloping
downward from existing footings.
Contractors working on the demolition and construction of your home must be cautioned to avoid
strong ground vibrations, which could cause additional settlement in the neighboring foundations.
During demolition, strong pounding on the ground with the excavator, which is often used to break
up debris and concrete, should not occur. Large equipment and vibratory compactors should not
be used close to the south property line. Additionally, in order to protect yourselves from
unsubstantiated damage claims from the adjacent owners, 1) the existing condition of the
foundation should be documented before starting demolition, and 2) the footings should be
monitored for vertical movement during the demolition, excavation, and construction process.
These are common recommendations for projects located close to existing structures that may
bear on loose soil and have already experienced excessive settlement. We can provide additional
recommendations for documentation and monitoring of the adjacent structures, if desired.
It is likely that some settlement of the ground surrounding pile -supported buildings will occur over
time. In order to reduce the potential problems associated with this, we recommend the following:
Fill to the desired site grades several months prior to constructing on -grade slabs,
walkways, and pavements around the buildings. This allows the underlying soils to
undergo some consolidation under the new soil loads before final grading is
accomplished.
• Construct all entrance walkways as reinforced slabs that are doweled into the grade
beam at the door thresholds. This will allow the walkways to ramp down and away from
the building as they settle, without causing a downset at the threshold.
• Isolate on -grade elements, such as walkways or pavements, from pile -supported
foundations and columns to allow differential movement.
As noted above, the depth to groundwater is very shallow and it is likely that groundwater will be an
issue during excavation. To prevent water seepage from mixing with the soil and creating muddy
conditions, the bottom of the excavation should be rocked with quarry spalls or 4- to 6-inch clean,
crushed rock. This will also prevent silty runoff into Lake Washington.
We do not recommend including a basement under the new house and that the below -grade
construction be limited to a crawlspace. Also, underslab drainage should be installed to prevent the
build up of hydrostatic forces behind below -grade elements. This drainage typically consists of
placing a system of 4-inch-diameter inverted perforated PVC pipes parallel to each oth
minimum of 15-foot centers and bedding the pipes in washed rock or pea -gravel. 4EVEUti of

The drainage and/or waterproofing recommendations presented in this report are intended only to
prevent active seepage from flowing through concrete walls or slabs. Even in the absence of active
seepage into and beneath structures, water vapor can migrate through walls, slabs, and floors from
the surrounding soil, and can even be transmitted from slabs and foundation walls due to the
concrete curing process. Water vapor also results from occupant uses, such as cooking and
bathing. Excessive water vapor trapped within structures can result in a variety of undesirable
conditions, including, but not limited to, moisture problems with flooring systems, excessively moist
air within occupied areas, and the growth of molds, fungi, and other biological organisms that may
be harmful to the health of the occupants. The designer or architect must consider the potential
vapor sources and likely occupant uses, and provide sufficient ventilation, either passive or
mechanical, to prevent a build up of excessive water vapor within the planned structure.
Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be allowed to review the final development plans to verify that the
recommendations presented in this report are adequately addressed in the design. Such a plan
review would be additional work beyond the current scope of work for this study, and it may include
revisions to our recommendations to accommodate site, development, and geotechnical
constraints that become more evident during the review process.
We recommend including this report, in
should also be provided to any future
recommendations.
SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS
its entirety, in the project contract documents. This report
property owners so they will be aware of our findings and
In accordance with Table 1615.1.1 of the 2003 International Building Code (113C), the site soil
profile within 100 feet of the ground surface is best represented by Soil Profile Type D (Stiff Soil
Profile). The site soils that will support the foundations are not susceptible to seismic liquefaction
because of their dense nature.
PIPE PILES
Three- or 4-inch-diameter pipe piles driven with a 650- or 800-pound hydraulic jackhammer to the
following final penetration rates may be assigned the following compressive capacities.
Note: The refusal criteria indicated in the above table are valid only for pipe piles that are
installed using a hydraulic impact hammer carried on leads that allow the hammer to sit on
the top of the pile during driving. If the piles are installed by alternative methods, such as a
vibratory hammer or a hammer that is hard -mounted to the installation machine, numerous
load tests to 200 percent of the design capacity would be necessary to substantiate the
allowable pile load. The appropriate number of load tests would need to be determined at
the time the contractor and installation method are chosen. y 4F j 11

As a minimum, Schedule 40 pipe should be used. The site soils should not be highly corrosive.
Considering this, it is our opinion that standard "black" pipe can be used, and corrosion protection,
such as galvanizing, is not necessary for the pipe piles.
Pile caps and grade beams should be used to transmit loads to the piles. Isolated pile caps should
include a minimum of two piles to reduce the potential for eccentric loads being applied to the piles.
Subsequent sections of pipe can be connected with slip or threaded couplers, or they can be
welded together. If slip couplers are used, they should fit snugly into the pipe sections. This may
require that shims be used or that beads of welding flux be applied to the outside of the coupler.
Lateral loads due to wind or seismic forces may be resisted by passive earth pressure acting on the
vertical, embedded portions of the foundation. For this condition, the foundation must be either
poured directly against relatively level, undisturbed soil or surrounded by level structural fill. We
recommend using a passive earth pressure of 300 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) for this resistance. If
the ground in front of a foundation is loose or sloping, the passive earth pressure given above will
not be appropriate. We recommend a safety factor of at least 1.5 for the foundation's resistance to
lateral loading, when using the above ultimate passive value.
PERMANENT FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS
Retaining wails backfilled on only one side should be designed to resist the lateral earth pressures
imposed by the soil they retain. The following recommended parameters are for walls that restrain
level backfill:
Active Earth Pressure *
35 pcf
Passive Earth Pressure
300 pcf
Coefficient of Friction
0.50
Sail lJnit Weight
140 pcf
Where: (I) pcf Is pounds per cubic foot, and (11) active and
passive earth pressures are computed using the equivalent fluid
pressures.
" For a restrained wall that cannot deflect at least 0.002 times its
height, a uniform lateral pressure equal to 10 psf times the height
of the wall should be added to the above active equivalent fluid
pressure.
The values given above are to be used to design permanent foundation and retaining walls only. It
is not appropriate to back -calculate soil strength parameters from the earth pressures and soil unit
weights presented in the table. The passive pressure given is appropriate for the depth of level
structural fill placed in front of a retaining or foundation wall only. The values for friction and
passive resistance are ultimate values and do not include a safety factor. We recommend a safety
factor of at least 1.5 for overturning and sliding, when using the above values to design the walls.
Restrained wall soil parameters should be utilized for a distance of 1.5 times the wall height from
corners or bends in the walls. This is intended to reduce the amount of cracking that can occur
where a wall is restrained by a corner.

The design values given above do not include the effects of any hydrostatic pressures behind the
walls and assume that no surcharges, such as those caused by slopes, vehicles, or adjacent
foundations will be exerted on the walls. If these conditions exist, those pressures should be added
to the above lateral soil pressures. Where sloping backfill is desired behind the walls, we will need
to be given the wall dimensions and the slope of the backfill in order to provide the appropriate
design earth pressures. The surcharge due to traffic loads behind a wall can typically be
accounted for by adding a uniform pressure equal to 2 feet multiplied by the above active fluid
density.
Heavy construction equipment should not be operated behind retaining and foundation walls within
a distance equal to the height of a wall, unless the walls are designed for the additional lateral
pressures resulting from the equipment. The wall design criteria assume that the backfill will be
well -compacted in lifts no thicker than 12 inches. The compaction of backfill near the walls should
be accomplished with hand -operated equipment to prevent the walls from being overloaded by the
higher soil forces that occur during compaction.
Retaininq Wall Backhll and „Waterproofing
Backfill placed behind retaining or foundation wails should be coarse, free -draining
structural fill containing no organics. This backfill should contain no more than 5 percent silt
or clay particles and have no gravel greater than 4 inches in diameter. The percentage of
particles passing the No. 4 sieve should be between 25 and 70 percent. A minimum 12-
inch width of free -draining gravel and a drainage composite similar to Miradrain 6000 should
be placed against the backfilled retaining walls. The drainage composites should be
hydraulically connected to the foundation drain system. Free -draining backfill or gravel
should be used for the entire width of the backfill where seepage is encountered.
The purpose of these backfill requirements is to ensure that the design criteria for a
retaining wall are not exceeded because of a build-up of hydrostatic pressure behind the
wall. The top 12 to 18 inches of the backfill should consist of a compacted, relatively
impermeable soil or topsoil, or the surface should be paved. The ground surface must also
slope away from backfilled wails to reduce the potential for surface water to percolate into
the backfill. The section entitled General Earthwork and Structural Fill contains
recommendations regarding the placement and compaction of structural fill behind retaining
and foundation walls.
The above recommendations are not intended to waterproof below -grade walls, or to
prevent the formation of mold, mildew or fungi in interior spaces. Over time, the
performance of subsurface drainage systems can degrade, subsurface groundwater flow
patterns can change, and utilities can break or develop leaks. Therefore, waterproofing
should be provided where future seepage through the walls is not acceptable. This typically
includes limiting cold -joints and wail penetrations, and using bentonite panels or
membranes on the outside of the walls. There are a variety of different waterproofing
materials and systems, which should be installed by an experienced contractor familiar with
the anticipated construction and subsurface conditions. Applying a thin coat of asphalt
emulsion to the outside face of a wall is not considered waterproofing, and will only help to
reduce moisture generated from water vapor or capillary action from seeping through the
concrete. As with any project, adequate ventilation of basement and crawl space areas is
important to prevent a build up of water vapor that is commonly transmitted throw h t IAr;SIs C

walls. We recommend that you contact a specialty consultant if detailed recommendations
or specifications related to waterproofing design, or minimizing the potential for infestations
of mold and mildew are desired.
The General, Slabs -On -Grade, and Drainage Considerations sections should be
reviewed for additional recommendations related to the control of groundwater and excess
water vapor for the anticipated construction.
SLABS -ON -GRADE
The building floors can be constructed as slabs -on -grade atop existing non -organic soil, or on
structural fill. The subgrade soil must be in a firm, non -yielding condition at the time of slab
construction or underslab fill placement_ Any soft areas encountered should be excavated and
replaced with select, imported structural fill.
Even where the exposed soils appear dry, water vapor will tend to naturally migrate upward through
the soil to the new constructed space above it. All interior slabs -on -grade must be underlain by a
capillary break or drainage layer consisting of a minimum 4-inch thickness of gravel or crushed
rock that has a fines content (percent passing the No. 200 sieve) of less than 3 percent and a sand
content (percent passing the No. 4 sieve) of no more than 10 percent. This capillary
break/drainage layer is not necessary if an underslab drainage system is installed. As noted by the
American Concrete Institute (ACI) in the Guides for Concrete Floor and Slab Structures, proper
moisture protection is desirable immediately below any on -grade slab that will be covered by tile,
wood, carpet, impermeable floor coverings, or any moisture -sensitive equipment or products. ACI
also notes that vapor retarders, such as 6-mil plastic sheeting, are typically used. A vapor retarder
is defined as a material with a permeance of less than 0.3 US perms per square foot (psf) per hour,
as determined by ASTM E 96. It is possible that concrete admixtures may meet this specification,
although the manufacturers of the admixtures should be consulted. Where plastic sheeting is used
under slabs, joints should overlap by at least 6 inches and be sealed with adhesive tape_ The
sheeting should extend to the foundation walls for maximum vapor protection. If no potential for
vapor passage through the slab is desired, a vapor barrier should be used. A vapor barrier, as
defined by ACI, is a product with a water transmission rate of 0.00 perms per square foot per hour
when tested in accordance with ASTM E 96. Reinforced membranes having sealed overlaps can
meet this requirement.
EXCAVATIONS AND SLOPES
No excavated slopes are anticipated other than for utility trenches. Excavation slopes should not
exceed the limits specified in local, state, and national government safety regulations. Temporary
cuts to a depth of about 4 feet may be attempted vertically in unsaturated soil, if there are no
indications of slope instability. However, vertical cuts should not be made near property
boundaries, or existing utilities and structures. Based upon Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296, Part N, the soil at the subject site would generally be classified as Type B. Therefore,
temporary cut slopes greater than 4 feet in height should not be excavated at an inclination steeper
than 1:1 (Horizontal -.Vertical), extending continuously between the top and the bottom of a cut. The
General section contains recommendations for excavation cuts near existing structures.
The above -recommended temporary slope inclination is based on the conditions expose pLANININ
explorations, and on what has been successful at other sites with similar soil c( L�'WF.NT-K-
NOV 3 0 2006
GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. qq
Darius Richards JN 06151

possible that variations in soil and groundwater conditions will require modifications to the
inclination at which temporary slopes can stand. Temporary cuts are those that will remain
unsupported for a relatively short duration to allow for the construction of foundations, retaining
walls, or utilities. Temporary cut slopes should be protected with plastic sheeting during wet
weather. It is also important that surface water be directed away from temporary slope cuts. The
cut slopes should also be backfilled or retained as soon as possible to reduce the potential for
instability. Please note that loose soil can cave suddenly and without warning. Excavation,
foundation, and utility contractors should be made especially aware of this potential danger. These
recommendations may need to be modified if the area near the potential cuts has been disturbed in
the past by utility installation, or if settlement -sensitive utilities are located nearby.
All permanent cuts into native soil should be inclined no steeper than 2.5:1 (H:V). To reduce the
potential for shallow sloughing, fill must be compacted to the face of these slopes_ This can be
accomplished by overbuilding the compacted fill and then trimming it back to its final inclination.
Adequate compaction of the slope face is important for long-term stability and is necessary to
prevent excessive settlement of patios, slabs, foundations, or other improvements that may be
placed near the edge of the slope.
Water should not be allowed to flow uncontrolled over the top of any temporary or permanent
slope. All permanently exposed slopes should be seeded with an appropriate species of vegetation
to reduce erosion and improve the stability of the surfiicial layer of soil.
DRAINAGE CONSIDERATIONS
Foundation drains should be used where (1) crawl spaces or basements will be below a structure,
(2) a slab is below the outside grade, or (3) the outside grade does not slope downward from a
building. Drains should also be placed at the base of all earth -retaining walls. These drains should
be surrounded by at least 6 inches of 1-inch-minus, washed rock and then wrapped in non -woven,
geotextile filter fabric (Mirafi 140N, 5upac 4NP, or similar material). At its highest point, a
perforated pipe invert should be at least 6 inches below the bottom of a slab floor or the level of a
crawl space, and it should be sloped for drainage. All roof and surface water drains must be Kept
separate from the foundation drain system. A typical drain detail is attached to this report as Plate
4. For -the best long-term performance, perforated PVC pipe is recommended for all subsurface
drains.
Underslab drainage should also be provided where (1) a crawl space will slope or be lower than the
surrounding ground surface, (2) an excavation encounters significant seepage, or (3) an excavation
for a building will be close to the expected high groundwater elevations. We can provide
recommendations for interior drains, should they become necessary, during excavation and
foundation construction.
As a minimum, a vapor retarder, as defined in the Slabs -On -Grade section, should be provided in
any crawl space area to limit the transmission of water vapor from the underlying soils. Also, an
outlet drain is recommended for all crawl spaces to prevent a build up of any water that may
bypass the footing drains.
Groundwater was observed during our field work. If seepage is encountered in an excavation, it
should be drained from the site by directing it through drainage ditches, perforated1fRq �'N1W..

the excavation_

Darius Richards JN 06151
June 20, 2006 Page 9
The excavation and site should be graded so that surface water is directed off the site and away
from the tops of slopes. Water should not be allowed to stand in any area where foundations,
slabs, or pavements are to be constructed. Final site grading in areas adjacent to a building should
slope away at least 2 percent, except where the area is paved. Surface drains should be provided
where necessary to prevent ponding of water behind foundation or retaining walls.
GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL
All building and pavement areas should be stripped of surface vegetation, topsoil, organic soil, and
other deleterious material. It is important that existing foundations be removed before site
development. The stripped or removed materials should not be mixed with any materials to be
used as structural fill, but they could be used in non-structural areas, such as landscape beds.
Structural fill is defined as any fill, including utility backfill, placed under, or close to, a building,
behind permanent retaining or foundation walls, or in other areas where the underlying soil needs
to support loads. All structural fill should be placed in horizontal lifts with a moisture content at, or
near, the optimum moisture content. The optimum moisture content is that moisture content that
results in the greatest compacted dry density. The moisture content of fill is very important and
must be closely controlled during the filling and compaction process.
The allowable thickness of the fill lift will depend on the material type selected, the compaction
equipment used, and the number of passes made to compact the lift. The loose lift thickness
should not exceed 12 inches. We recommend testing the fill as it is placed. if the fill is not
sufficiently compacted, it can be recompacted before another lift is placed. This eliminates the
need to remove the fill to achieve the required compaction. The following table presents
recommended relative compactions for structural fill:
Beneath footings, slabs
95%
IIFilled slopes and behind 90% I
retaining walls
95% for upper 12 inches of
Beneath pavements subgrade; 90% below that
level
Where: Minimum Relative Compaction is the ratio, expressed in
percentages, of the compacted dry density to the maximum dry
density, as determined in accordance with ASTM Test
Designation D 1557-91 (Modified Proctor).
Structural fill that will be placed in wet weather should consist of a coarse, granular soil with a silt or
clay content of no more than 5 percent. The percentage of particles passing the No. 200 sieve
should be measured from that portion of soil passing the three -quarter -inch sieve.

encountered in the borings are representative of subsurface conditions on the site. If the
subsurface conditions encountered during construction are significantly different from those
observed in our explorations, we should be advised at once so that we can review these conditions
and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. Unanticipated soil conditions are
commonly encountered on construction sites and cannot be fully anticipated by merely taking soil
samples in borings. Subsurface conditions can also vary between exploration locations. Such
unexpected conditions frequently require making additional expenditures to attain a properly
constructed project. It is recommended that the owner consider providing a contingency fund to
accommodate such potential extra costs and risks. This is a standard recommendation for all
projects.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Darius Richards, and his representatives,
for specific application to this project and site. Our conclusions and recommendations are
professional opinions derived in accordance with current standards of practice within the scope of
our services and within budget and time constraints. No warranty is expressed or implied. The
scope of our services does not include services related to construction safety precautions, and our
recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's methods, techniques, sequences, or
procedures, except as specifically described in our report for consideration in design. Our services
also do not include assessing or minimizing the potential for biological hazards, such as mold,
bacteria, mildew and fungi in either the existing or proposed site development.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
In addition to reviewing the final plans, Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be retained to provide
geotechnical consultation, testing, and observation services during construction. This is to confirm
that subsurface conditions are consistent with those indicated by our exploration, to evaluate
whether earthwork and foundation construction activities comply with the general intent of the
recommendations presented in this report, and to provide suggestions for design changes in the
event subsurface conditions differ from those anticipated prior to the start of construction.
However, our work would not include the supervision or direction of the actual work of the
contractor and its employees or agents. Also, job and site safety, and dimensional measurements,
will be the responsibility of the contractor.
During the construction phase, we will provide geotechnical observation and testing services when
requested by you or your representatives. Please be aware that we can only document site work
we actually observe. It is still the responsibility of your contractor or on -site construction team to
verify that our recommendations are being followed, whether we are present at the site or not.

Memorandum for Record
re: Title Insurance & Easement Documentation (Assessor's Parcel # 334270-0330)
The attached copy of Title Insurance coverage is being furnished per request of the City
of Renton, in order to facilitate their approval of the Richards Setback Variance
application.
This policy was issued on September 7, 1976, in conjunction with the applicant's
purchase of the subject residence at 3605 Lake Washington Blvd. North, in Renton.
Since that date, two additional easements have been granted that involve the road along
the eastern portion of applicant's property_ These easements are of course not
discussed in the 1976 title policy, therefore I have attached copies of the actual
easement documents, as follows-
1 . Easement granted 6/7/1999 to the City of Renton for the purpose of installing and
maintaining a new water main that was placed down the approximate middle of the
existing road access easement. (Auditor's # m199 ` 08> I0601(�so
2_ Easement granted 4/9/2006 to Puget Sound Energy, Inc. for the purpose of
installing and maintaining underground gas and electric facilities in the eastern
portion of the existing road easement. (Auditor's # not known by D. Richards)
I am not aware of any easements other than these two and the ones cited in items 4-7,
Schedule B of the Title Policy. I do not have copies of any of the easements listed
Schedule B. I believe, however, that Item 7 involves an easement for the installation
and maintenance of the metro sewer line in Lake Washington, approx. 20 feet west of,
and parallel to, my shoreline.
I further believe that items 4-6 of Schedule B refer to easements for overhead power
lines along the east and west boundaries of the access road.
