DATE OF NOTICE OF APPLICATION: April 4, 2019 PROJECT NAME/NUMBER: PR19-000138 Renton Park and Ride Temporary Use Permit / LUA19-000064 PROJECT LOCATION: 2217 Maple Valley Hwy (APN 1723059158) APPLICANT/PROJECT CONTACT PERSON: Laurey Tobiason / laureytobiason@msn.com / 20434 10th Place SW, Normandy Park, WA 98166 LOCATION WHERE APPLICATION MAY BE REVIEWED: Applicant documents are available online through the City of Renton Document Center website. See also http://bit.ly/2UgFhgn PERMITS/REVIEW REQUESTED: Temporary Use Permit PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant proposes to temporarily utilize a portion of an existing parking lot on a site identified as 2217 Maple Valley Highway, Renton WA 98057 (APN 1723059158) as a park and ride. The site is 90,119 square feet and located within the Commercial Office Residential (COR) zone, and the Commercial- Office-Residential land use designation. High Severity Seismic Hazard is mapped on the southeast portion of the site, and the site is within the Wellhead Protection Area, Zone 1, and the Moderate Severity Coal Mine Hazard Area. The site is currently used for offices, however, the low occupancy rate causes the majority of the parking lot to remain vacant. The site contains 169 parking spaces, of which, 125 would be temporarily reserved for the park and ride. The office space would retain usage of the remaining 44 spaces. Four new ADA accessible spaces would be added for the park and ride in the northwest bank of parking stalls, closest to the bus pickup location. The office space will retain use of the three existing ADA stalls. The park and ride will utilize existing striping, however, it will be necessary to enlarge the four ADA stalls and re-paint the surface with ADA decals. No other improvements to the site are proposed. The applicant is requesting that the use be allowed for 5 years from the date of approval, or until the building is converted to a new use, whichever is sooner. The park and ride will be operated by a private bus service, and the site is maintained by Transwest, which includes snow plowing. Access to the site is taken off of Maple Valley Highway via two existing curb cuts which serve the proposed site and surrounding properties. The proposal would be categorically exempt from SEPA under WAC 197-11-800(6).
