Introduction
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Executive Summary
The Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan Report (Master Plan Report) documents the master planning
process for Sunset Neighborhood Park. The process took place over a period of nine months and included
extensive public outreach and community involvement. The proposed park is a key component of the
larger 269-acre Sunset Area and the "Sunset Area Community Reinvestment Strategy;' a plan adopted by
the City of Renton in 2009 for comprehensive redevelopment of the Sunset Area of Renton.
Sunset Neighborhood Park will be a new 3.1 acre park located east of 1-405 and north of NE Sunset
Boulevard in the Sunset Area of Renton. The future park will be a gateway facility for the Sunset Area and a
catalyst for transforming a part of the City that is working to overcome academic, health care, public safety,
and socio-economic challenges. The future park will serve a diverse population, both in age and race/
ethnicity, and is intended to serve the community that lives within a one-half mile radius of the park, which
is identified as the typical walking distance for a neighborhood park facility.
Sunset Neighborhood Park will be part of a vibrant community where new mixed -use housing, a new
library, three nearby schools, and a nearby accessible playground will be or are located. Additionally, the
park will be linked to area residences and businesses through a "Complete Streets" approach that creates
a walkable community with a connective set of pedestrian, bicycle, and public transportation friendly
streets. Prior to this park project, the City of Renton and local partners will have completed $48 million
worth of transportation, library, school, playground, and rain garden/stormwater public infrastructure
investments in the Sunset Area. A previously funded and soon -to -be constructed regional stormwater
facility with rain gardens will be co -located within the future park. The future park will provide multiple
benefits, including: reduced storm water runoff; outdoor education opportunities; social gathering spaces;
performance venues for local residents and visitors; increased property values; increased jobs, economic
growth and vitality; and opportunities for physical activity and healthy living.
Emerging from the broad public involvement process, the future park design incorporates active and
passive recreation and environmental education opportunities. Park design elements include adult fitness
equipment, two children's play areas, a looped circulation/path system with mile markers, a water feature,
picnic areas, a picnic gazebo with tables, performance seating/open space lawn area with pergola and
benches, a restroom building with notice boards, art locations, and interpretive signs.
The Master Plan Report includes a breakdown of the estimated construction costs for the park, and
illustrates an option for phased construction. The park design can accommodate phasing to provide
flexibility for funding options, anticipating funding from multiple sources or at different times. The adopted
Master Plan and the Master Plan Report will be utilized to secure outside funding and grant opportunities
such as Land and Water Conservation Funding, Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program funding, and
Legislative funding.
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan

Project Background
Since the late 1990's the City of Renton has focused on the Renton
Highlands as an area targeted for improvement and investment.
A variety of ideas and plans have emerged and multiple public
and private partnerships have formed to generate investment in
facilities and infrastructure. The City initiated a major work program
evaluating the comprehensive plan and zoning in the Highlands
sub -area during 2005 and 2006. The City's goal was to stimulate
private investment to create a more viable residential and business
district, provide additional housing options, improve and upgrade
neighborhood infrastructure, and diversify the employment and
business tax base. In the fall of 2006, the Highlands Task Force
on Land Use and Zoning convened and recommendations were
adopted in May 2007. The land use and zoning changes were
intended to stimulate revitalization of one of Renton's older
commercial and residential areas into a community with compact
urban development featuring a mix of residential and commercial
uses, a range of housing types, innovative design, transit
orientation, and pedestrian scale amenities.
The City of Renton formed a Highlands Task II Force in late 2007 to
identify, prioritize, and recommend next steps needed to implement
the land use vision endorsed by the first task force. After over a
year of intense study and discussion, and a public meeting, the Task
Force produced a report with two dozen recommendations for City
actions in the Renton Highlands. These recommendations were
presented to City Council in December 2008 and included specific
code changes as well as "big ideas," such as:
• Neighbors and businesses are engaged and involved in the
community. The neighborhood is an attractive place to live,
conduct business and is affordable to many incomes;
• Growth and development are managed in a way that preserves
the quality of life and ensures safety and security. Cultural and
ethnic diversity is celebrated;
• The neighborhood is interconnected and walkable.
In early 2009, City Council adopted these recommendations by
resolution and asked the administration to draw up a work program
to begin implementation.
Several Highlands Phase II Task Force recommendations
involved the initiation of new improvements to the Highlands
area. Recommendations included creating a "third place" or
public gathering space, initiating pedestrian and streetscape
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
improvements, advocating for boulevard improvements for Sunset
Boulevard, and the development of a sub -regional storm water
drainage facility. Any one of these projects requires a significant
public investment. The Sunset Community Investment Strategy
provided an assessment of the feasibility and funding for these
recommendations. Outreach included community stakeholders
such as the Renton Housing Authority, the Renton School District,
local business owners, and the general public. Council reviewed
the final report and adopted the recommendations for community
investment on November 23, 2009, under the title "Sunset Area
Community Investment Strategy."
To plan for the Sunset Area redevelopment and associated
neighborhood revitalization, the City of Renton, in partnership with
the Renton Housing Authority, completed the Sunset Area Planned
Action Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The NEPA/SEPA FEIS
(National Environmental Policy Act/State Environmental Policy Act,
Final Environmental Impact Statement FEIS) was issued in April
2011. The objective of the EIS was to promote the redevelopment
of public housing, implement infrastructure improvements, and
facilitate planning and environmental review for the Sunset Area.
The Preferred Alternative in the EIS report showed neighborhood
growth based on investment in the Potential Sunset Terrace
Redevelopment Subarea, with a moderate number of dwellings
provided in a mixed -income, mixed -use development, oriented
around a larger park open space, and a loop road tying it all
together. These items represent a major public investment in the
study area infrastructure and services.
Also in 2011, the City of Renton updated their "Parks, Recreation
and Natural Areas Plan." During this process, and as identified in
the Sunset Area Planned Action EIS, there are a limited number of
parks and recreation facilities in this area. (See the following page
for a plan of the Sunset Area Preferred Community Framework,
which illustrates a park and pedestrian connection strategy). The
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan provides multiple, varied
recreation opportunities and will be connected to and has a strong
relationship with the future public and private surrounding uses
including a new King County library, mixed -use developments,
housing community, schools, and Meadow Crest Playground
(Renton School District/City of Renton partnership project). The
3.1 acre proposed Sunset Neighborhood Park is a key open space
component of the Sunset Area Community Revitalization Plan and
is located in the heart of the community. It will be a focal point
where the community can come together for celebrations and for
informal recreation.

Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
The Sunset Neighborhood Park is also an integral part of the City's
Sunset Terrace Regional Stormwater Facility Project. A portion of
the park's northeast corner is dedicated for a stormwater facility.
Rain gardens in this area filter stormwater into the infiltration
gallery below and will incorporate habitat planting and education
about storm water bioretention. This stormwater facility is funded
in part by the Department of Ecology through a 2011 Stormwater
retrofit grant.
Public Outreach and Design Process
A collaborative and engaging community -based process was
used to develop the Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan.
The design process included a review and analysis of the existing
site, a public process to gather input and feedback on master
plan concepts, and cost estimates for the master plan. Multiple
communication methods were utilized to invite the community to
participate in the public process including % page advertisements
and public notifications in the Renton Reporter, e-mail and postal
invitations utilizing a data base of nearly 3,000 area residents, flier
distribution, City web page postings and internal City postings.
Both English and Spanish translations were utilized in the mailed
invitations and flier distributions.
The public process involved an initial workshop with City of Renton
departments to set design parameters, and a workshop with
identified stakeholders to gain input on the Sunset Area as well as
set additional design parameters. Three community open house
meetings followed, and involved the public in park programming,
design character, and layout. Approximately fifty participants
were involved in the community open house meetings and the
stakeholder workshop. The Parks Commission and Committee of
the Whole commented on the master plan, as it developed, during
three of their regular meetings. The Committee of the Whole
adopted the master plan on November 3, 2014.

Design Concept
The Master Plan for the Sunset Neighborhood
Park provides a mix of spaces for the adjacent
and surrounding community: open lawn areas for
play and events, structured play and picnic areas,
environmental facilities, restrooms, and convenient
access points all arranged in a curving, informal layout
that balances open vistas, focal points, and a pastoral
aesthetic.
The park is centrally located and provides connections
to amenities to the north and south. Entry portals
at the main entrances feature a combination of
"markers" for wayfinding, pergola, or potential art
locations. A network of pathways connects the portals
with direct routes, defines different activity areas,
and provides a variety of looped routes, both around
the perimeter and through the park. Active spaces,
including playgrounds and fitness area, are located in
the southeastern corner of the park, near the adjacent
civic and multi -use buildings, while more passive, open
spaces are focused along the residential sides of the
park. A regional stormwater facility is integrated with
garden -type planting and interpretive area. A large
plaza, with an interactive water feature, is centrally
located tying all sectors of the park together. The
restroom is located for ease of access but without
dominating the park. A variety of seating options are
included in addition to open and sheltered picnic
areas. Trees emphasize main path connections, the
surrounding streets, and focal areas within the park.

Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Plan Elements
Park Pathways
A loop pathway circles the perimeter of the park and provides an
opportunity to include mileage markers. A main north -south path
connects the Harrington Avenue portals, providing an unobstructed
path recalling the original street route and maintaining community
connectivity. Meandering paths connect other entrance points and
provide a variety of "loop routes" around the park.
Open Space and Performance Area
The main open space area provides a flat lawn area for informal
field games, as well as a large area for events and neighborhood
picnics. An area designated for a movable stage is located along the
northern edge and oriented so that the sun illuminates the stage
and is not in the audience's eyes. The load/unload area on NE 10th
Street provides maintenance and event access to the park.
Pergolas
A pergola marks the entrance across the street from the future
library. Pergolas also define the south edge of the open space and
performance area. The pergolas may be covered and planted to
allow for all-weather use with curved benches underneath.
Water Feature
The central plaza includes an interactive water feature with natural
features such as channels and boulders.
Plav and Fitness Areas
The play area features two playgounds, separating play for children
ages 2-5 and children ages 5-12. Play equipment may include swings
and climbing structures. The fitness area includes outdoor fitness
equipment for adults. The fitness equipment is located adjacent
to the playgrounds, allowing parents to watch children play while
exercising. Poured in place rubberized safety surfacing is included in
all play and fitness areas.
Picnic Areas
Picnic plazas are adjacent to play areas, arranged for family use. A
viewing/picnic gazebo provides a covered picnic area to allow for
all -season use, and provide views of the surrounding landscape in a
quieter setting.
Restroom
The public restroom features an architecturally contemporary
design, with a wall for notice boards. The structure is located for
10 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
maintenance access, utility connections, and pumproom location
while providing some separation from other park activities.
Interpretative Area
Interpretative signs are provided at the raingardens to explain the
function of natural stormwater management systems.
Site Furnishings
Seating includes concrete seatwalls at the Harrington Avenue
entrances and under the pergola at the future library entrance.
Circular seating is located under the pergolas that frame the open
space/performance area, as well as in the raingarden interpretative
area. Back to back benches ring the central plaza to allow for social
seating and a choice of viewing options. Bicycle Racks are located
at the entrance across the street from the future library. Litter
receptacles will also be included.
Lighting
Low-level pedestrian lighting is included along the main path
connecting the Harrington Avenue entrances and around the
perimeter of the park. Recessed lighting is incorporated within walls
and seatwalls.
Art
Potential art locations are identified at the north and south
Harrington Avenue portals, the portal across the street from
the future library, and adjacent to the central plaza, to enhance
wayfinding cues throughout the park.
Topography
The park is gradually sloped toward the southwest corner, following
existing topography. Both a grass berm and the southern lawn areas
slope gently to provide play opportunities and are oriented to take
advantage of sun exposure. All pathways are ADA accessible (under
S% grade).
Planting
Flowering trees emphasize the north/south Harrington Avenue
connection. Smaller accent trees soften the play areas. Street
trees are spaced to allow visibility into the park for safety. Native,
evergreen trees provide focal points of visual interest.
Planting areas, including shrubs and groundcover, mark the
entrances. The gentle slopes and open space areas are planted with
lawn. The raingardens will have native and drought tolerant plants,
with a few accent plants and boulders.

Utility Infrastructure
Background
The proposed park site is located on Renton Housing Authority (RHA) property, formerly consisting of
public residential housing. This housing will be demolished after the property is transferred to the City of
Renton. Harrington Avenue and Glenwood Avenue right-of-way will be vacated (between NE 10th Street
and Sunset Lane NE) and NE 10th Street will be extended west to Glenwood Ave NE for construction of the
new park. The right-of-way and curb line for Sunset Lane NE along the south and west of the project site
is shifting to the north and east to accommodate new development across the street from the proposed
park. This new curb line will be the southern boundary of the park.
Site Civil
Site civil activities include but are not limited to:
• Grading of the site
• Installing new impervious pathways, and pervious pathways
• Installing curb and gutter
• Relocating existing utilities
• Installing irrigation for landscaped areas
• Installing pathway lighting
• Providing new water and sanitary service for the new park restroom and water features.
A new regional stormwater facility is also proposed to be constructed prior to the park and is discussed in
the following sections.
UtilitiPS
Existing underground utilities include water, gas, sewer, and storm lines. Existing overhead utilities include
power and telecommunication. There is overhead power and telecommunication on Harrington Ave
between NE 10th Street to Sunset Lane. There is underground gas, storm, and water, and overhead power
on Glennwood Ave NE west of Harrington Avenue.
Existing overhead power and telecommunications lines within the proposed park boundary will need to
be relocated underground. Proposed underground power and telecommunication lines will connect to
existing utilities at the intersection of Glennwood Ave NE and Sunset Lane NE and will run underground,
along the west portion of the park, and tie into existing utilities on the east side of Harrington Ave NE, near
Sunset Blvd NE.
Sewer, gas and storm lines in Harrington Avenue will remain and be maintained during and after
completion of the park project. The existing gas line and sanitary sewer main in Glennwood Ave NE will
also be maintained. The utilities exhibit, see Appendix F, shows the extent of utilities within the park site,
the right-of-way and adjacent properties. The existing water main in Harrington and Glennwood between
NE 10th Street and Sunset Lane NE will be abandoned. A proposed water service line will connect to the
existing main in NE 10th and serve the park bathroom and water feature.
Utility relocation within the right-of-way
Water, storm, sanitary sewer and gas utilities in Sunset Lane NE will be relocated within the right-of-way,
however this work is anticipated to be completed by others prior to the park project. Relocation is required
12 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
due to the reconstruction and shifting of the road right-of-way to serve the new developments in the
neighborhood (both by others).
New Fire Water Line Construction
A new water main will be constructed within the right-of-way and around the park along Sunset Ln
NE and NE 10th St. The majority of the water line will be constructed by others prior to the start of
the park project, however the last portion of the waterline may be constructed at the same time as
the NE 10th Street extension and park project. This portion of the water main is also anticipated to be
constructed by others to complete the loop for the fire line.
Stormwater Facilities and Requirements
A new regional stormwater facility will be constructed in 2015 prior to the construction of the park.
This stormwater facility consists of two bioretention cells (raingardens), and an underground infiltration
gallery. The bioretention cells will be vegetated with native plants and shrubs. The facility will provide
water quality treatment and flow control benefits for Sunset Blvd, NE 10th Street, and a commercial
property north of the park. Local storm drain systems within the park will be constructed to provide
drainage as needed.
The current layout of the park has approximately 25% impervious area and is meeting the Planned
Action EIS impervious area limit. Therefore no stormwater flow control is required. The onsite
stormwater management requirement can be achieved by maintaining sheet flow from impervious
areas onto pervious areas, and the construction of pervious pathways.

Introduction
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Executive Summary
The Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan Report (Master Plan Report) documents the master planning
process for Sunset Neighborhood Park. The process took place over a period of nine months and included
extensive public outreach and community involvement. The proposed park is a key component of the
larger 269-acre Sunset Area and the "Sunset Area Community Reinvestment Strategy;' a plan adopted by
the City of Renton in 2009 for comprehensive redevelopment of the Sunset Area of Renton.
Sunset Neighborhood Park will be a new 3.1 acre park located east of 1-405 and north of NE Sunset
Boulevard in the Sunset Area of Renton. The future park will be a gateway facility for the Sunset Area and a
catalyst for transforming a part of the City that is working to overcome academic, health care, public safety,
and socio-economic challenges. The future park will serve a diverse population, both in age and race/
ethnicity, and is intended to serve the community that lives within a one-half mile radius of the park, which
is identified as the typical walking distance for a neighborhood park facility.
Sunset Neighborhood Park will be part of a vibrant community where new mixed -use housing, a new
library, three nearby schools, and a nearby accessible playground will be or are located. Additionally, the
park will be linked to area residences and businesses through a "Complete Streets" approach that creates
a walkable community with a connective set of pedestrian, bicycle, and public transportation friendly
streets. Prior to this park project, the City of Renton and local partners will have completed $48 million
worth of transportation, library, school, playground, and rain garden/stormwater public infrastructure
investments in the Sunset Area. A previously funded and soon -to -be constructed regional stormwater
facility with rain gardens will be co -located within the future park. The future park will provide multiple
benefits, including: reduced storm water runoff; outdoor education opportunities; social gathering spaces;
performance venues for local residents and visitors; increased property values; increased jobs, economic
growth and vitality; and opportunities for physical activity and healthy living.
Emerging from the broad public involvement process, the future park design incorporates active and
passive recreation and environmental education opportunities. Park design elements include adult fitness
equipment, two children's play areas, a looped circulation/path system with mile markers, a water feature,
picnic areas, a picnic gazebo with tables, performance seating/open space lawn area with pergola and
benches, a restroom building with notice boards, art locations, and interpretive signs.
The Master Plan Report includes a breakdown of the estimated construction costs for the park, and
illustrates an option for phased construction. The park design can accommodate phasing to provide
flexibility for funding options, anticipating funding from multiple sources or at different times. The adopted
Master Plan and the Master Plan Report will be utilized to secure outside funding and grant opportunities
such as Land and Water Conservation Funding, Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program funding, and
Legislative funding.
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan

Project Background
Since the late 1990's the City of Renton has focused on the Renton
Highlands as an area targeted for improvement and investment.
A variety of ideas and plans have emerged and multiple public
and private partnerships have formed to generate investment in
facilities and infrastructure. The City initiated a major work program
evaluating the comprehensive plan and zoning in the Highlands
sub -area during 2005 and 2006. The City's goal was to stimulate
private investment to create a more viable residential and business
district, provide additional housing options, improve and upgrade
neighborhood infrastructure, and diversify the employment and
business tax base. In the fall of 2006, the Highlands Task Force
on Land Use and Zoning convened and recommendations were
adopted in May 2007. The land use and zoning changes were
intended to stimulate revitalization of one of Renton's older
commercial and residential areas into a community with compact
urban development featuring a mix of residential and commercial
uses, a range of housing types, innovative design, transit
orientation, and pedestrian scale amenities.
The City of Renton formed a Highlands Task II Force in late 2007 to
identify, prioritize, and recommend next steps needed to implement
the land use vision endorsed by the first task force. After over a
year of intense study and discussion, and a public meeting, the Task
Force produced a report with two dozen recommendations for City
actions in the Renton Highlands. These recommendations were
presented to City Council in December 2008 and included specific
code changes as well as "big ideas," such as:
• Neighbors and businesses are engaged and involved in the
community. The neighborhood is an attractive place to live,
conduct business and is affordable to many incomes;
• Growth and development are managed in a way that preserves
the quality of life and ensures safety and security. Cultural and
ethnic diversity is celebrated;
• The neighborhood is interconnected and walkable.
In early 2009, City Council adopted these recommendations by
resolution and asked the administration to draw up a work program
to begin implementation.
Several Highlands Phase II Task Force recommendations
involved the initiation of new improvements to the Highlands
area. Recommendations included creating a "third place" or
public gathering space, initiating pedestrian and streetscape
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
improvements, advocating for boulevard improvements for Sunset
Boulevard, and the development of a sub -regional storm water
drainage facility. Any one of these projects requires a significant
public investment. The Sunset Community Investment Strategy
provided an assessment of the feasibility and funding for these
recommendations. Outreach included community stakeholders
such as the Renton Housing Authority, the Renton School District,
local business owners, and the general public. Council reviewed
the final report and adopted the recommendations for community
investment on November 23, 2009, under the title "Sunset Area
Community Investment Strategy."
To plan for the Sunset Area redevelopment and associated
neighborhood revitalization, the City of Renton, in partnership with
the Renton Housing Authority, completed the Sunset Area Planned
Action Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The NEPA/SEPA FEIS
(National Environmental Policy Act/State Environmental Policy Act,
Final Environmental Impact Statement FEIS) was issued in April
2011. The objective of the EIS was to promote the redevelopment
of public housing, implement infrastructure improvements, and
facilitate planning and environmental review for the Sunset Area.
The Preferred Alternative in the EIS report showed neighborhood
growth based on investment in the Potential Sunset Terrace
Redevelopment Subarea, with a moderate number of dwellings
provided in a mixed -income, mixed -use development, oriented
around a larger park open space, and a loop road tying it all
together. These items represent a major public investment in the
study area infrastructure and services.
Also in 2011, the City of Renton updated their "Parks, Recreation
and Natural Areas Plan." During this process, and as identified in
the Sunset Area Planned Action EIS, there are a limited number of
parks and recreation facilities in this area. (See the following page
for a plan of the Sunset Area Preferred Community Framework,
which illustrates a park and pedestrian connection strategy). The
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan provides multiple, varied
recreation opportunities and will be connected to and has a strong
relationship with the future public and private surrounding uses
including a new King County library, mixed -use developments,
housing community, schools, and Meadow Crest Playground
(Renton School District/City of Renton partnership project). The
3.1 acre proposed Sunset Neighborhood Park is a key open space
component of the Sunset Area Community Revitalization Plan and
is located in the heart of the community. It will be a focal point
where the community can come together for celebrations and for
informal recreation.

The Sunset Neighborhood Park is also an integral part of the City's
Sunset Terrace Regional Stormwater Facility Project. A portion of
the park's northeast corner is dedicated for a stormwater facility.
Rain gardens in this area filter stormwater into the infiltration
gallery below and will incorporate habitat planting and education
about storm water bioretention. This stormwater facility is funded
in part by the Department of Ecology through a 2011 Stormwater
retrofit grant.
Public Outreach and Design Process
A collaborative and engaging community -based process was
used to develop the Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan.
The design process included a review and analysis of the existing
site, a public process to gather input and feedback on master
plan concepts, and cost estimates for the master plan. Multiple
communication methods were utilized to invite the community to
participate in the public process including % page advertisements
and public notifications in the Renton Reporter, e-mail and postal
invitations utilizing a data base of nearly 3,000 area residents, flier
distribution, City web page postings and internal City postings.
Both English and Spanish translations were utilized in the mailed
invitations and flier distributions.
The public process involved an initial workshop with City of Renton
departments to set design parameters, and a workshop with
identified stakeholders to gain input on the Sunset Area as well as
set additional design parameters. Three community open house
meetings followed, and involved the public in park programming,
design character, and layout. Approximately fifty participants
were involved in the community open house meetings and the
stakeholder workshop. The Parks Commission and Committee of
the Whole commented on the master plan, as it developed, during
three of their regular meetings. The Committee of the Whole
adopted the master plan on November 3, 2014.

Design Concept
The Master Plan for the Sunset Neighborhood
Park provides a mix of spaces for the adjacent
and surrounding community: open lawn areas for
play and events, structured play and picnic areas,
environmental facilities, restrooms, and convenient
access points all arranged in a curving, informal layout
that balances open vistas, focal points, and a pastoral
aesthetic.
The park is centrally located and provides connections
to amenities to the north and south. Entry portals
at the main entrances feature a combination of
"markers" for wayfinding, pergola, or potential art
locations. A network of pathways connects the portals
with direct routes, defines different activity areas,
and provides a variety of looped routes, both around
the perimeter and through the park. Active spaces,
including playgrounds and fitness area, are located in
the southeastern corner of the park, near the adjacent
civic and multi -use buildings, while more passive, open
spaces are focused along the residential sides of the
park. A regional stormwater facility is integrated with
garden -type planting and interpretive area. A large
plaza, with an interactive water feature, is centrally
located tying all sectors of the park together. The
restroom is located for ease of access but without
dominating the park. A variety of seating options are
included in addition to open and sheltered picnic
areas. Trees emphasize main path connections, the
surrounding streets, and focal areas within the park.

Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Plan Elements
Park Pathways
A loop pathway circles the perimeter of the park and provides an
opportunity to include mileage markers. A main north -south path
connects the Harrington Avenue portals, providing an unobstructed
path recalling the original street route and maintaining community
connectivity. Meandering paths connect other entrance points and
provide a variety of "loop routes" around the park.
Open Space and Performance Area
The main open space area provides a flat lawn area for informal
field games, as well as a large area for events and neighborhood
picnics. An area designated for a movable stage is located along the
northern edge and oriented so that the sun illuminates the stage
and is not in the audience's eyes. The load/unload area on NE 10th
Street provides maintenance and event access to the park.
Pergolas
A pergola marks the entrance across the street from the future
library. Pergolas also define the south edge of the open space and
performance area. The pergolas may be covered and planted to
allow for all-weather use with curved benches underneath.
Water Feature
The central plaza includes an interactive water feature with natural
features such as channels and boulders.
Plav and Fitness Areas
The play area features two playgounds, separating play for children
ages 2-5 and children ages 5-12. Play equipment may include swings
and climbing structures. The fitness area includes outdoor fitness
equipment for adults. The fitness equipment is located adjacent
to the playgrounds, allowing parents to watch children play while
exercising. Poured in place rubberized safety surfacing is included in
all play and fitness areas.
Picnic Areas
Picnic plazas are adjacent to play areas, arranged for family use. A
viewing/picnic gazebo provides a covered picnic area to allow for
all -season use, and provide views of the surrounding landscape in a
quieter setting.
Restroom
The public restroom features an architecturally contemporary
design, with a wall for notice boards. The structure is located for
10 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
maintenance access, utility connections, and pumproom location
while providing some separation from other park activities.
Interpretative Area
Interpretative signs are provided at the raingardens to explain the
function of natural stormwater management systems.
Site Furnishings
Seating includes concrete seatwalls at the Harrington Avenue
entrances and under the pergola at the future library entrance.
Circular seating is located under the pergolas that frame the open
space/performance area, as well as in the raingarden interpretative
area. Back to back benches ring the central plaza to allow for social
seating and a choice of viewing options. Bicycle Racks are located
at the entrance across the street from the future library. Litter
receptacles will also be included.
Lighting
Low-level pedestrian lighting is included along the main path
connecting the Harrington Avenue entrances and around the
perimeter of the park. Recessed lighting is incorporated within walls
and seatwalls.
Art
Potential art locations are identified at the north and south
Harrington Avenue portals, the portal across the street from
the future library, and adjacent to the central plaza, to enhance
wayfinding cues throughout the park.
Topography
The park is gradually sloped toward the southwest corner, following
existing topography. Both a grass berm and the southern lawn areas
slope gently to provide play opportunities and are oriented to take
advantage of sun exposure. All pathways are ADA accessible (under
S% grade).
Planting
Flowering trees emphasize the north/south Harrington Avenue
connection. Smaller accent trees soften the play areas. Street
trees are spaced to allow visibility into the park for safety. Native,
evergreen trees provide focal points of visual interest.
Planting areas, including shrubs and groundcover, mark the
entrances. The gentle slopes and open space areas are planted with
lawn. The raingardens will have native and drought tolerant plants,
with a few accent plants and boulders.

Utility Infrastructure
Background
The proposed park site is located on Renton Housing Authority (RHA) property, formerly consisting of
public residential housing. This housing will be demolished after the property is transferred to the City of
Renton. Harrington Avenue and Glenwood Avenue right-of-way will be vacated (between NE 10th Street
and Sunset Lane NE) and NE 10th Street will be extended west to Glenwood Ave NE for construction of the
new park. The right-of-way and curb line for Sunset Lane NE along the south and west of the project site
is shifting to the north and east to accommodate new development across the street from the proposed
park. This new curb line will be the southern boundary of the park.
Site Civil
Site civil activities include but are not limited to:
• Grading of the site
• Installing new impervious pathways, and pervious pathways
• Installing curb and gutter
• Relocating existing utilities
• Installing irrigation for landscaped areas
• Installing pathway lighting
• Providing new water and sanitary service for the new park restroom and water features.
A new regional stormwater facility is also proposed to be constructed prior to the park and is discussed in
the following sections.
UtilitiPS
Existing underground utilities include water, gas, sewer, and storm lines. Existing overhead utilities include
power and telecommunication. There is overhead power and telecommunication on Harrington Ave
between NE 10th Street to Sunset Lane. There is underground gas, storm, and water, and overhead power
on Glennwood Ave NE west of Harrington Avenue.
Existing overhead power and telecommunications lines within the proposed park boundary will need to
be relocated underground. Proposed underground power and telecommunication lines will connect to
existing utilities at the intersection of Glennwood Ave NE and Sunset Lane NE and will run underground,
along the west portion of the park, and tie into existing utilities on the east side of Harrington Ave NE, near
Sunset Blvd NE.
Sewer, gas and storm lines in Harrington Avenue will remain and be maintained during and after
completion of the park project. The existing gas line and sanitary sewer main in Glennwood Ave NE will
also be maintained. The utilities exhibit, see Appendix F, shows the extent of utilities within the park site,
the right-of-way and adjacent properties. The existing water main in Harrington and Glennwood between
NE 10th Street and Sunset Lane NE will be abandoned. A proposed water service line will connect to the
existing main in NE 10th and serve the park bathroom and water feature.
Utility relocation within the right-of-way
Water, storm, sanitary sewer and gas utilities in Sunset Lane NE will be relocated within the right-of-way,
however this work is anticipated to be completed by others prior to the park project. Relocation is required
12 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
due to the reconstruction and shifting of the road right-of-way to serve the new developments in the
neighborhood (both by others).
New Fire Water Line Construction
A new water main will be constructed within the right-of-way and around the park along Sunset Ln
NE and NE 10th St. The majority of the water line will be constructed by others prior to the start of
the park project, however the last portion of the waterline may be constructed at the same time as
the NE 10th Street extension and park project. This portion of the water main is also anticipated to be
constructed by others to complete the loop for the fire line.
Stormwater Facilities and Requirements
A new regional stormwater facility will be constructed in 2015 prior to the construction of the park.
This stormwater facility consists of two bioretention cells (raingardens), and an underground infiltration
gallery. The bioretention cells will be vegetated with native plants and shrubs. The facility will provide
water quality treatment and flow control benefits for Sunset Blvd, NE 10th Street, and a commercial
property north of the park. Local storm drain systems within the park will be constructed to provide
drainage as needed.
The current layout of the park has approximately 25% impervious area and is meeting the Planned
Action EIS impervious area limit. Therefore no stormwater flow control is required. The onsite
stormwater management requirement can be achieved by maintaining sheet flow from impervious
areas onto pervious areas, and the construction of pervious pathways.

Inter -departmental Team Workshop: Summary Notes Page 1 of 3
February 19, 2014
Council Chambers Room 702, City of Renton
Planned Action EIS & Park Master Plan Overview
Leslie Betlach provided an overview of the Park Master Plan process. She highlighted relevant background
information including the Sunset Area Community Planned Action EIS, the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment
Concept, and design guidelines in the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan.
Site Analysis Overview
Existing Conditions:
Dean W. Koonts, HBB, described existing conditions within the Park Master Plan project area. He presented
a photo -documentation map illustrating key site components including topography, soils, overhead and
underground utilities, transit stops, viewsheds, and future location of the stormwater facility. He also
reviewed microclimate of the site and a sun and shade analysis for the project area illustrating shadows
produced by proposed adjacent development.
Stormwater Facility:
Dustin Atchison, CH2M Hill, provided a summary of the future regional storm water facility located in
the park area, and connection to the Harrington Ave NE Green Connection Stormwater Project. He also
described the raingarden surface features and the underground infiltration gallery of the facility. He also
described the Ecology grant funding sources and related schedule (construction completion by June 30,
2015) and design constraints (non -mitigation water quality function).
Park Parameters
Colie Hough -Beck, HBB, introduced the existing park concept plan from the Planned Action EIS. Initial
questions and comments from the participants included:
• Are there significant trees or historic elements on site?
Response: There are a few trees at the south of the project area that will be looked into further.
• Will there be any issues with ponding water in the stormwater facility?
Response: The facility should drain well and the ponding duration (approximately 6-24 hours) is
significantly less than the incubation period for mosquitos.
• Can planting be incorporated above the stormwater facility?
Response: Shallow rooted shrubs and grass are suitable.
• What type and frequency of access to the facility is needed, and where?
Response: Likely a vactor truck, once a year, at the manholes located at the ends of the facility, and
maybe more frequent to the rain garden for plants maintenance. The maintenance vehicle access is 12'
to 15' wide and does not need to be pavement. In some examples, the maintenance access has been
provided by pathways through the park.
all
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Inter -departmental Team Workshop: Summary Notes Page 2of3
• Consider the facility as an educational opportunity.
Code/Regulation Parameters:
Interdepartmental team input on potential code and regulation parameters included:
• City will demolish the buildings on the land as part of the property acquisition process.
• Appraised land value does not include the buildings.
• Adjacent development is responsible for half of street improvement, including a minimum 20' width of
roadway pavement needed for fire and emergency access, and sidewalks, planting and parking if any
within their half of the street.
• Existing utilities that serve the greater area will need to remain in service, and could be relocated or
placed underground, but this will require coordination. Gas = PSE; Power = PSE; Water, storm and
sewer = City; Telecoms = private franchises. It would be preferable to maintain the subsurface utilities,
particularly city -owned facilities, for budget purposes. Aerial utilities may need to be relocated or
undergrounded.
• Construction Sequencing: The Park would like to begin construction following the development/
construction of the surrounding planned structures which are anticipated to be completed 2017.
The library is estimated to begin construction in 2014 with completion estimated in 2015. Colpitts is
estimated to begin construction of their phased development (Buildings 6-10) in 2015 and complete
approximately in 2017. Much of RHA's phased construction (Buildings 5, 11, 16 and 17) are dependent
on financing.
• Infrastructure Abandonment within Park Area: The City will be exploring concepts for the abandonment
and/or relocation of existing utilities within Harrington Ave NE so as to not interfere with park
improvements/programming. There will be questions about who pays for this and when does this
happen which then lends itself to other questions about the sequencing for street dedications and
vacations (of Harrington Ave NE, NE 10th St, and Sunset Lane) as well as the construction of physical
improvements within the right-of-way (street, water, sewer, and drainage). As part of that this
discussion will be concerns about who goes first, to what level of improvement is necessary, the use of
latecomer agreements, etc.
Park Components:
Interdepartmental team input on specific park components included:
Buildings/Structures
• Performance and outdoor educational activity spaces are needed.
• Power, restrooms, ADA access, and amphitheater -like area should be considered.
• Social services, such as job training and tutoring offered by the Renton School District and
Neighborhood House need space within the neighborhood should be located somewhere; library
provides this space for meeting and is open until 9pm.
• The Human Services Strategic Plan is due to come out this year.
• Cedar River Library is a good example of integration of outdoor space for contemplative reading areas
and library associated activities.
• Sight -lines should be considered in order not to obstruct future security cameras.
Fountain
• Design water feature that allows children to have access.
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
41.1
Inter -departmental Team Workshop: Summary Notes Page 3of3
• Crossroads project in Bellevue is a good example for size and use.
• Design a fountain for use at a neighborhood level, not regional.
Open Space & Play Area
• Un-programmed play space is important, simply have a lawn for flexible activities.
• Low-level safety lighting should be considered, such as bollards or pedestrian lights at edges of park.
• Integrate public art with the project, consider the stormwater facility as a potential.
• Off -leash dog area may be important as density increases and outdoor dog accommodation areas
are needed.
• Views between building 5 and 6/7 provide an opportunity for a viewpoint off -site or on -site viewshed.
• Outdoor fitness equipment should be considered adjacent to the children's play area.
Community Garden
• Will a community garden be large enough to have an impact at this location? This may have lower
priority at this location. There may be other better locations for this in the neighborhood.
• Looking at the sun/shade analysis, the park may not be appropriate for a garden, as presented in the
Planned Action EIS.
On -street Parking Options:
Colie presented three parking exhibits for Sunset Lane, surrounding the project area. Comments included:
• Sidewalk should be shown as 12' with tree grates.
• For Exhibit 1, it will be difficult to park after turning off of Harrington northbound and making a left
onto Sunset Lane due to orientation of the angled parking.
• For Exhibit 3, is parallel parking difficult given make up of likely users of this park and neighborhood?
• For Exhibit 3, the bulb -outs provide green space.
• For Exhibit 3, could you remove park -side parallel parking? It was noted that the neighborhood was
likely deficient of on -street parking and any reductions from code -required on -street parking are likely a
big impact.
• Park -side step -out of car treatment would be outside of ROW.
• Parking treatment in front of library and commercial should be angled parking, but also include bulb -
out for pedestrian crossing. Parking stalls on the park -side could be eliminated in that location.
• Group consensus favored Exhibit 3 with 12' sidewalks integrated and the addition of angled parking
adjacent to building 9/10.

Stakeholder Workshop: Summary Notes Page 1 of
March 19, 2014
7th Floor Conferencing Center 726, City of Renton
Introductions
All stakeholders and project team members introduced themselves. Stakeholders included representatives
from the City of Renton, Renton Housing Authority, Schemata Workshop, King County Library System, Viet
Wa, Renton School District, and Colpitts Development.
Planned Action EIS & Park Master Plan Overview
Leslie Betlach, City of Renton, provided an overview of the Park Master Plan process. She highlighted
relevant background information including the Sunset Area Community Planned Action EIS and design
guidelines in the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan.
Site Analysis Overview
Existing Conditions:
Dean W. Koonts, HBB, described existing conditions within the Park Master Plan project area. He presented
the photo -documentation map illustrating key site components including topography, vegetation, soil
conditions, overhead and underground utilities, transit stops, viewsheds, and future location of the storm -
water facility. He also reviewed the site's microclimate and a sun and shade analysis for the project area.
Stormwater Facility:
Dustin Atchison, CH2M Hill, provided a summary of the proposed regional stormwater facility to be co -
located in the park area, and its connection to the Harrington Ave NE Green Connection Stormwater
Project. He described how the bioretention stormwater facilities proposed for the Harrington Avenue
Green Connection will provide enhanced water quality treatment. The regional storm water facility, co -
located in the future park, will consist of rain gardens, an infiltration gallery, and a vegetated detention
facility to compliment the park features. The facility will serve as a demonstration project and utilize low
impact development to treat stormwater runoff. These improvements will retrofit existing storm systems in
the area to reduce the quantity and improve the quality of stormwater runoff, from the existing and future
land use within the Sunset Community Plan Area, which discharges to Johns Creek and Lake Washington.
He also described the grant funding source, design constraints and anticipated schedule (construction
completion by June 30, 2015).
Dean W. Koonts, HBB, provided an overview of the design concepts for the regional stormwater facility,
raingarden surface feature. He illustrated the components of the preferred layout for the raingarden,
including the relationship between the proposed Renton Highlands Library and the NE entrance into the
park, as well as opportunities for art and education, aesthetic integration with the park, and ease of facility
maintenance access.

Stakeholder Workshop: Summary Notes Page 2 of
Surrounding Development
Stakeholders described their respective projects that surround the park.
Library:
• 2,000 library visitors are anticipated daily.
• The library will be open 6 days a week from approximately 10am to 9pm, with the possibility of
extending hours to Sunday.
• There will be ± 1,000 SF of Community Room space.
• Visibility into the park is important: A green view from the library (northwest face) is desired, such as
a learning garden. The library will have many windows allowing views of the park through the library
from Sunset Blvd.
• The library organizes performances in Renton's parks with about 100 to 200 attendees
Renton Housing Authority (RHA):
• The NW corner, building 5, will have 40 units.
• 10 to 14 townhomes intended for families will be located to the north of the park.
• 15 townhomes and 20 flats will be located north of NE 10th between Harrington Ave and Sunset Lane
NE.
• RHA has a 25 lb limit on size of dogs and a requirement to keep dogs leashed.
Colpitts Development:
• 111 market -rate units are anticipated, intended for singles and couples.
• Approximately 45% of the units will be one -bedroom.
• Community group rooms will be included.
• The population will be approximately 500 to 700 individuals.
• Pets will be allowed and the developer plans on providing dog "runs" as part of the development.
Viet Wa:
• No changes are planned for the commercial/retail use.
On -street Parking
Colie Hough -Beck, HBB, summarized the alternative parking concepts for Sunset Lane NE as well as the
preferred parking concept, Option #4. The preferred parking concept includes parallel parking in front
of the residential units, angled parking in front of the library and neighboring property, a load/unload
area along NE 10th on the park side, bulb -outs for pedestrian crossings, and typical sidewalk and planted
treatment along the adjacent property frontages. Comments included:
• Explain where people park when visiting the library and adjacent housing.
Response: There will be dedicated parking for both the library and the adjacent housing. Sunset
Neighborhood Park is a neighborhood park and is intended to serve nearby residents who live and work
within walking and bicycling distance.
• Can a walking route or loop be shown around the edges of the park?
all
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Stakeholder Workshop: Summary Notes Page 3of4
Response: This will be considered as part of the park design.
• Is there a regulation on parking time limits?
Response: There is flexibility with parking time limits.
• Can the load/unload area move?
Response: The load/unload area is located for maintenance vehicles accessing the stormwater facility
and the park.
• Why is there parallel parking shown in front of the residential units?
Response: The preferred parking concept balances parking, pedestrian crossings into the park with
significant landscape bulb -outs and sightlines into the park. Angled parking adjacent to the proposed
residential developments poses a challenge for drivers turning left onto Sunset Lane from Harrington
northbound, because drivers would have to back into and pull out of stalls across traffic, or would need
to circle the entire park to access this angled parking by turning right onto Sunset Lane.
Park Components Exercise
Colie introduced park components that were included in the Planned Action EIS park concept plan, and
then summarized the park components identified by the Interdepartmental Team Workshop. Utilizing
paper cutouts overlaid on the park site plan, she demonstrated square footage requirements for some
of the identified park features. Colie asked stakeholders for input on the identified park components,
including a performance space, a restroom building, art integration, a water feature, open space, a play
area, as well as what other elements would be/would not be desired. Comments included:
Buildings/Structures/Site furnishings:
• A permanent stage is not needed for performances, just space for a temporary stage.
• Picnic tables and benches are desirable, including a covered picnic table area
• Could some type of shelter to block wind and provide enclosure be considered?
Response: Structures raised a concern regarding visual accesses for Crime prevention through
environmental design (CPTED), surveillance, and vandalism prevention. CPTED is a design approach to
deter criminal behavior by designing spaces to avoid potential attack.
• Restrooms should be located near children's play area, water feature, and performance gathering space
for easy access.
• Restrooms should be located to provide convenient access for cleaning and maintenance personnel.
• Restrooms should not be a focal point in the park or block prominent views into the park.
Water Feature:
Portland's Jamison Square water feature is a good example of a successful water feature, and includes
the possibility to have performances in the space when the water is turned off.
Locate the water feature away from the library so that water does not track into the facility.
Stormwater facility:
• Can the stormwater facility raingarden be incorporated as the water feature?
Response: The raingarden is not treated water and would not meet public health standards for use as
a water feature where children may have contact. Additionally, the raingarden is vegetated and will not
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
51
Stakeholder Workshop: Summary Notes Page 4of4
be designed to detain stormwater runoff.
• Could the stormwater facility be located further to the south and west or is the current location in the
northeast corner fixed?
Response: While there is some flexibility in the layout of the stormwater facility, the soils exploration
was conducted at the location currently shown; it is uncertain if the same high infiltration soils exist
further to the south. In addition, the current location considers the necessary conveyance from NE 10th
Street and Sunset Blvd.
• If the corner of NE 10th Street and Sunset Lane (Park side near the stormwater facility) is mostly
hardscape, the additional right-of-way space between the park and NE 10th Street should be developed
to include a landscape buffer with sidewalk.
Open Space & Play Area:
• A perimeter walking trail is desired. Trail markers or bollards that show distance for runners and walkers
on the perimeter trail are preferred.
• Any lighting should be low-level, pathway lighting.
• An off -leash dog area is not preferred as part of this park. Dog bag stations should be provided.
• Hard surface courts (basketball or tennis) are not desired in the park.
• Locate the play area to the north side of the park area because family units will be on the northern
properties.
• Divide the play areas and equipment (2-5 and 5-12 years of age) with hardscape so that parents can
simultaneously watch both areas. The hardscape can also provide children a path to ride wheels
(tricycles etc.) separate from park circulation.
• Outdoor fitness equipment should be considered adjacent to the children's play area.
• An outdoor chess game could be located near the performance area.
Response: The library does not have the resources to be the custodian of outdoor game areas.

Open House Meeting #1: Summary Notes
Date: May 1, 2014
Time: 6pm to 8pm
Place: McKnight Middle School Commons Area, 1200 Edmonds Ave. NE, Renton
Attendees: Seventeen community members attended.
Team Presentation
Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan:
Page 1 of 4
Leslie Betlach, City of Renton, introduced the team and provided an overview of the Park Master Plan
process. She highlighted relevant background information including the Sunset Area Community Planned
Action EIS and design guidelines in the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Plan.
Site Analysis and Park Parameters:
Colie Hough -Beck, HBB, introduced the design team. Dean W. Koonts, HBB, briefly described existing
conditions within the Park Master Plan project area. He presented the photo -documentation map
illustrating key site components including topography, vegetation, soil conditions, overhead and
underground utilities, transit stops, view sheds, and location of the stormwater facility. He presented the
site's microclimate, a sun and shade analysis for the project area, and provided an overview of the park
components identified in the City Interdepartmental Team Workshop and the Stakeholder Workshop.
Park Concept Alternatives:
Dean provided an overview of the layout of the park components and park circulation in each of the
four concepts: Cluster, Portal, Flow, and Promenade. Participant comments and questions during the
presentation included:
1) Question: What is the density and size of housing units in the proposed development surrounding
the park?
Response: The Renton Housing Authority (RHA) has committed to replacing the original 100 units
of public housing at Sunset Terrace with 100 new public housing units. In addition, RHA plans to
create approximately 150 additional affordable units. RHA's new public and affordable housing
units will be located on, or adjacent to the Sunset Terrace property and at other locations in the
Sunset Area. In addition to the new park and library, the current Sunset Terrace property will be
redeveloped to include approximately 410 market -rate housing units and approximately 40 public
or affordable housing units (of the 250 previously noted public housing and affordable units. The
remaining 210 units will be located throughout the Sunset Planned Action Area). The Renton
Housing Authority is currently working to provide relocation assistance to the current residents of
Sunset Terrace. Participants were directed to contact the Renton Housing Authority or the City's
Community and Economic Development Department for additional information.
2) Question: Have you looked at other parks in the area and evaluated their uses and walking
distance to the proposed Sunset Neighborhood Park?
Response: The City Interdepartmental team provided input on surrounding park uses.
3) Question: Is this a "Neighborhood" Park (as defined by the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas
Plan)?
Response: Sunset Neighborhood Park will be developed as a "Neighborhood" Park.
66 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Open House Meeting #1: Summary Notes Page 2of4
4) Question: Is there a parking/loading area for the performances?
Response: There is an unload/load area proposed at the northern side of the park.
5) Question: Did the Design Team take into consideration potential views of Mount Rainier in the
design options?
Response: The anticipated height of the future building structures will limit views to Mount.
Rainier. There are views of the Olympic Mountains to the West and the Design Team will try to
capture those views between the future building structures.
6) Question: What will be the hours of the park?
Response: The Park will most likely be open from sunrise to sunset.
7) Question: Is there lighting proposed for the park?
Response: Lighting has not been proposed at this stage of the design process. However low-level
path lighting may be included in the park master plan.
8) Question: Does the park include Sunset Court Park?
Response: Sunset Court Park is a separate park and is located to the north of Sunset Neighborhood
Park.
9) Question: Will an off -leash dog park be included?
Response: Off -leash dog facilities will be provided by the adjacent housing developments within
each development.
10) Comment: There is age diversity in the neighborhood. Sunset Neighborhood Park should
incorporate park components for teens.
Response: The park design will include elements appropriate to a broad range of potential users.
Open House Workshop Activity
Activity Summary:
Attendees were divided into two groups to participate in a facilitated, small group discussion regarding
the Concept Alternatives. Each group sat at a table with a discussion leader and with the four Concept
Alternatives displayed for review. Discussion leaders, Dean and Colie, asked four questions:
1) What do you think about the park components?
2) Are there any missing park components?
3) How do you like the park circulation in each concept alternative?
4) What are the pros and cons of each concept alternatives?
The two groups reconvened as one audience, and Colie and Dean, the discussion leaders, presented a
summary of their group discussions.
Combined Summary of the Groups' Discussion:
A. Park Components:
1) Picnic shelters should be included for all-weather use.
2) Active use areas for teens and a variety of ages should be included, such as a basketball court,
tether ball, a tennis court with backboard, and flat lawn areas for pick-up soccer and football.
3) Porous concrete was suggested as a paving material for the basketball court in order to reduce
noise.
Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
XVA
Open House Meeting #1: Summary Notes Page 3of4
4) A P-Patch community garden should be considered.
5) Soft lighting should be considered along walking paths. Bright, overhead lights should not be
considered. (No cobra head lighting)
6) Benches, tables, and an outdoor sink are all components that should be considered in the picnic
areas and benches throughout the park.
7) Education components should be considered. Botanical labels and signage for trees and plants
would be an opportunity for education.
8) A pavilion or flexible use area for craft and vegetable sales should be included.
9) School programs or community service at the park would provide opportunities to involve students
at the park.
10) Pervious paving components could be included. However, maintenance should be considered
when specifying pervious pavement.
11) A pathway with fruit trees, "orchard lane" along the existing Harrington Avenue NE ROW (once the
ROW is abandoned), or a mini -orchard could be considered as a way to incorporate the concept of
community gardening into the park.
12) ADA parking stalls at the park should be provided.
13) The water feature should not pond or have pooling water. Focus on interactive spray jets.
14) Concessionaires or commercialization of the park should not be considered.
15) Locate a public art feature near the library, at NE 10th Street and Sunset Lane NE.
B. Park Circulation:
1) Direct routes, or "senior friendly" routes, to park components and surrounding development
entrance points should be incorporated.
2) A path following the existing Harrington Ave NE route works well for connecting entrance points.
These routes should include benches.
3) The perimeter loop is a good idea.
4) All paths should be ADA accessible.
5) "Cluster" does not provide direct routes. "Promenade" and "Flow" provide direct routes.
6) A few of the paths could be removed in "Promenade" to provide a simpler layout, and could
include more plazas at entrance points.
7) "Portal" provides good entrance points into the park; however "Portal" can be revised to include
some of the "Promenade" pathways to create more direct routes, such as the path connecting
Harrington Ave.
C. Pros and Cons of each Concept Alternative:
Collectively the two discussion groups preferred the circulation in "Promenade", and favored the
placement of park components in both "Portal" and "Flow". Participants liked the direct circulation routes
in the "Promenade" concept and liked the many entrance points in the "Portal" concept as well as the
placement of activity near the commercial side of the park in the "Flow" concept.
1) "Cluster" pros: The play area is centrally located. The hill is nice.
"Cluster" cons: The park components are too centrally clustered on top of each other, and do not
create opportunity for discovery. There is too much open space, which is weather -dependent.
2) "Portal" pros: The plazas provide opportunity for meeting and children pick-up locations. These
68 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Open House Meeting #1: Summary Notes
Page 4 of 4
plazas could each have themes. The hierarchy of the plazas read well, and could be applied to the
"Promenade" concept. The water feature is centrally located.
"Portal" cons: The water feature potentially blocks a thru-path. Paths do not connect across the
park. Activities are too tightly clustered. A picnic area is needed by the play area.
3) "Flow" pros: The paths are simple and work well. The activities near the library and retail are well
located.
"Flow" cons: There is too much open space. The performance space is located too far from the
library.
4) "Promenade" pros: The relationship to the library and retail works well with the path layout. Two
picnic areas are useful. The restroom is centrally located.
"Promenade" cons: There are too many paths. The picnic areas are too far from the restroom.

City gets feedback from
residents on new Highlands
park

May 9, 2014 at 4d9PM
Community members got their first look at some of the ideas City of Renton Parks planners have for
anew park in the Highlands that is part of the Sunset Redevelopment project.
The project is the Sunset Neighborhood Master Plan and the open house was held last Thursday to
solicit feedback from the community.
Four concepts were presented, representing the lastthree months of work by landscape achitect,
HBB, and engineer, CH2MHILL. Only four components have been decided in each of the concepts:
the park size, toad ingand unload ingzones, the location and configuration of the regional
stormwaterfacility and the parking location.
"I like the idea of having a park that is open to all generations to use and play, and after the
community members brought up the idea of spaces for teens, think that this park will be just that,"
said Kaelene Nobis, resident outreach coordinator for Renton Housing Authority.
"I think it's going to end up being pretty cohesive for the residents and really entwined with the
library," she said.
About 20 people showed up for the meeting at McKnight Middle School. They listened to an
explanation of concepts by the project team and then gathered into groups to share their own ideas.
Some of the people present were intent upon asking about the number of housing units that will go
into the property. The Sunset Redevelopment is intended to be a mix of market rate and low-income
housing.
Members of the audience were concerned if the city looked at areas of overlap in terms of amenities
at other nearby parks. According to officials, in trying to keep the park a neighborhood park and not
a regional destination, some amenities came off the list.
What's known almost certainly is that it will not be a dog park.
70 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
Community members came up with a list of things they'd like to see, which included activities for
teens, all weather shelters, sports fields and courts, a flat lawn for creative play, a spray parka nd
pea patch, among many other ideas.
"I think it's wonderful to see picnic areas and play areas, environmentally safe areas for people in
this community," said Jon Troxel, an area apartment owner. "I whole-heartedly support this
concept."
Cynthia Burns, chair of the Parks Commission, was also in attendance and said she was amazed by
the participation of those who turned out for the event.
"Everyone shared equally," she said. "It was no holding back and that's the kind of public
involvement that we want in developing our parks."
Parks Planning and Natural Resources Director Leslie Betlach said she thought the exchange went
well with the community. She has received a lot of "thank yous," she said, for her work on the
project. People are surprised to be getting a redesigned neighborhood park.
The next steps are for the project team to pull together all of the comments and come up with some
alternative solutions for the next open house meeting, which is June 18. There is no timeframe for
construction yet. The land still has to be acquired and developed, Betlach said.
"It's not uncommon," she said. "We're planning for the future; there's opportunity out there through
grants and other funding sources."
Betlach also said at this stage there is no budget projection for the project.

V. ❑ISCUSSIONACTION ITEMS
Sunset Master Plan Update —Leslie Betlach
Leslie was present to review the future neighborhood park connected to the
Harrington Avenue Green Connection, the Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan, In
February of 2014 Community and Economic Development, Community Services, Public
Works, and the Executive Department held an Interdepartmental Team Meeting. A
Stakeholder Meeting followed in March including the Renton Housing Authority,
CoIpitts Development, King County Library System, Renton Technicai College, Renton
School ❑istrict, and local businesses as well as the Interdepartmental City Team.
Diagrams demonstrated the recommended parking layout and preferred storm water
facility layout. The Plan identifies park components including a picnic area, water
feature and play area. Additionally other components include performance space,
fitness equipment, walking loop, restroom, integration of art, as well as passive open
space.
The first Open House meeting occurred May 1, 2014, and reviewed parks, recreation
and natural areas plan, site analysis and park parameters, an overview of four park
concept alternatives, workshop activity and recap. Questions included what the public
felt about the park components, was anything missing, how do you like the park
circulation in each alternative, what are the pros and cons of each concept
alternative?
Desired park components include active use areas for teens and a variety of ages,
(including open turf and hard court surfaces), a pavilion for craft and/ vegetable sales,
education components, picnic shelter, benches, tables, fruit tree walk/Community
Garden, ADA accessibility, water feature, public art and a perimeter walking loop.
Due to space requirements, all desired park components cannot be accommodated in
the future park site. As a follow up to the meeting, staff inventoried existing
recreation facilities (tennis, basketball, sports fields and community garden space)
located within a one half mile walking distance to the north and south of the future
plc. Seven tennis courts, four basketball courts, four baseball softball fields, three
soccer fields and one multi -purpose field are located within walking distance. There is
potential space for a raised bed community garden location at the North Highlands
Parks.

Open House Meeting #2: Summary Notes
Date: June 18, 2014
Page 1 of S
Time: 6pm to 8pm
Place: McKnight Middle School Commons Area, 1200 Edmonds Ave. NE, Renton
Attendees: Seventeen community members attended, including residents and representatives of the
Renton Housing Authority, Renton Schools District, and the City of Renton Parks Commission. Five
attendees also previously attended the Open House Meeting #1, May 1, 2014.
Team Presentation
Leslie Betlach, City of Renton, introduced the City team and provided a summary of the Park Master Plan
process. Colie Hough -Beck, HBB, introduced the design team and described the agenda for the Open House
#2 Meeting.
Open House Meeting #1 Summary
Colie provided a brief overview of the four Park Concept Alternatives presented at the Open House
Meeting #1 and a summary of the feedback received during that meeting. Colie then presented the
Preferred Park Concept, which consolidated the feedback from Open House Meeting #1 into one preferred
concept. Colie explained that this Preferred Park Concept guided the development of the three Park
Schematic Plans which would be presented later in the Open House.
The Preferred Park Concept illustrates the following main items:
• The north and south alignment of Harrington Avenue should be honored in the circulation and
pathway system.
• Provide multiple entry plazas (portal plazas) at key access points, such as the future library,
Glenwood Avenue, Sunset, Harrington, and the future housing developments.
• Circulation should provide direct access through the park.
• Show the main use zones (play, plaza, etc.) located in the east half of the park, closer to the future
mixed -use development.
Nearby Park Facilities:
Leslie Betlach described existing park facilities located within 1/2 mile of the proposed Sunset
Neighborhood Park. Nearby park facilities were inventoried as a follow-up to the Open House #1 Meeting
in order to illustrate what park activities are being met in parks near the proposed Sunset Neighborhood
Park. Below is a list of these facilities described:
North Highlands Park and Neighborhood Center
1) 1 Lighted Tennis Court proposed for refurbishment
2) Portion of park area has been preliminarily identified for raised bed community garden

Park Schematic Plans:
Dean W. Koonts, HBB, provided an overview of the three Park Schematic Plans: Water Commons, Village
Green, and Vista Place:
Water Commons:
Water Commons translates the preferred park concept into a schematic plan through the use of the simple,
geometric design principles of the Modernist Landscape style.
• Pathways and pedestrian circulation provide direct, geometrically curving routes into and through
the park, defining the open spaces in a balanced way.
• The water feature has two main features: (1) bubbling jets provide water that stream down the
face of a low retaining wall; (2) this water collects into a channel that runs south to the south
Harrington Ave portal plaza.
• The play areas are separated and they, along with the fitness areas and picnic plaza (parent plaza)
radiate outward from the main plaza.
• The restroom sits closest to the main open space/performance area and is integrated with a large
curving pergola structure that has benches underneath.
• The portal plazas incorporate hardscape and curving benches. The portal plaza across from the
future library also includes a curving pergola structure with seating underneath.
• The main sculptural art element occurs in the main plaza.
• Formal lines of trees follow the axial pathways and help define the open spaces.
Village Green: Village Green translates the preferred park concept into a schematic plan through the use of
naturalistic, pastoral design principles of English Landscape park style.
• Pathways and pedestrian circulation meander along the outer edges and the internal routes of the
park looping back to each other.
• The water feature incorporates a channel of flowing water with boulders and potentially pockets of
planting reminiscent of a stream's edge.
• The play areas, fitness areas, picnic spots, and restroom building are nestled into the planting
areas which buffer the uses from each other.
• The portal plazas incorporate vegetation to soften the entryways, with the portal across from the
future library integrating the main sculptural art element.
• Orchard trees line both sides of the main north -south pathway that curves gently through the
main plaza.
• Clusters and groves of trees are grouped informally throughout the park framing views and
0to]N

providing shade.
• Seating consists of benches and of picnic table/shelter spots.
Vista Place: Vista Place translates the preferred park concept into a schematic plan through the use of the
symmetrical, classic design principles in the French formal style.
• Pathways and pedestrian circulation align with the several streets that dead-end at the park,
providing straight and axial routes into the park and with park elements.
• The water feature is multi -functional, providing a shallow sheet of flowing water that when turned
off provides additional hardscape for events in the main plaza.
• The play and fitness areas are gathered together in a single use area adjoining the main plaza.
• The restroom is located near the north Harrington Avenue entrance for maintenance access.
• The portal plazas incorporate planting, with the main north and south portals aligning with
Harrington Avenue integrating sculptural art elements.
• Formal lines of trees follow the axial pathways and help define the open spaces.
• A smaller viewpoint/art plaza aligns with the view through the gap of adjacent buildings to the
southwest.
• A variety of seating options are provided: seat walls and double rows of backed benches in
addition to picnic spots.
Participant comments and questions during the presentation included:
1) Question: What is the purpose of the rain garden?
Response: The rain garden is a surface feature above an underground infiltration gallery that will
treat stormwater.
2) Question: Who selects the art for the park?
Response: The Renton Municipal Arts Commission will provide direction on art selection.
3) Question: Was a skate park considered for the park?
Response: A skate park was not suggested in the earlier City of Renton Interdepartmental Team
Workshop, the Stakeholder Workshop, nor the Open House Meeting #1. A skate park is generally
considered for a larger Community park.
4) Question: Will the rain garden be planted?
Response: The rain garden will be planted with water -friendly plants.
5) Question: Will there be lighting improvements to the area?
Response: Low-level, safety lighting will be considered for the park.
6) Question: Will there be speed limits on Harrington Avenue?
Response: Yes, there will be speed limits placed on Harrington Ave.
7) Question: How much will it cost to construct the park?
Response: The City does not want to limit itself as it's trying to define what components the public
desires in the park and where they would like to have them located and the size and configuration.
The City doesn't want to constrain this part of the process with a number.
Open House Workshop Activity
Activity Summary:
Attendees visited three stations to review the Park Schematic Plans more closely and provide feedback.

8) Likes the trees that emphasize Harrington Avenue connection.
9) Likes the naturalistic character.
10) Likes the overall character of the photo examples for this plan.
11) Likes flexible performance space because it is not enclosed by trees or a pergola.
12) Concerned about the rocks being slippery.
C. Vista Place:
1) Thinks the layout is too angular.
2) Likes the options for seating, lots of choices for seating throughout the park.

This is the proposed plan after two community meetings for the new Sunset Neighborhood Master Plan project.

byTRACEY COMPTON, Renton Reporter Staff Writer
Jun 25, 2014 at 3:37PM
The Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan continues to take shape with each passing community
meeting.
Project team representatives and community members convened for another check -in June 18 at
McKnight Middle School to see how feedback from the previous meeting has been incorporated into
the master plan design.
"We took all that into consideration and came up with the'Preferred Bubble Concept,"' said Colie
Hough -Beck, of HBB, the landscape architect.
The Preferred Bubble Concept represents a combination of all the ideas that were presented in the
last master plan meeting May 1. Most of the 28 people in attendance seemed to find one concept of
the three presented for the look of the park that they liked for the Preferred Bubble Concept.The city
has called those different looks the "Village Green," "Vista Place" and "Water Commons."
The city presented the schematic designs for those three different looks and image example boards
of the components that would make up the overall concept. The "Village Green" concept has a nine -
foot grade change, with portals and pathways all around the park. It has a boulder channel water
feature and playgrounds for ages two to five and five to 12. There is also a plaza that coordinates
with the library entrance to the park.
The "Vista Place" has a more formal geometric shape than the other designs, although a similar
layout. This concept features a larger surface area water feature. All the playground equipment is
clustered in the same area and the lawn has gentle slopes. In the plaza next to the library, there are
seat -walls.
The last concept, "Water Commons," is a blend of the two previous designs. The portals or pathways
now function in a semi circular fashion. The space lends itself to a pergola around the central plaza.
The water feature spills over a wall and their are pathways through the rain gardens.
"I find it very interesting and I like the Village Green," said Stewart Shusterman, Renton School
District representative.
He found it easy to make comments on the drawings, but more helpful to view the image examples
attached to each concept. With Highlands Elementary around the corner and Meadow Crest Early
Learning Center up the road, Shusterman said the district is a big part of this development.
106 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
"I don't have kids, so I don't know if it's badly needed," said Sheridan Botts, who lives in the area.
"There isn't really a good natural green space like a play field. So, I'm looking forward to having the
water features and the trees. And I'm really looking forward to the new library location."
The construction for the library is to start sometime this summer. There are components that did
not make it into the design like the activity teen courts. Renton Housing Authority's Kaelene Nobis
understands why some components didn't make it and thinks the project team did a good job of
explainingwhy.
"I really like the ones that area little more flowey and less geometrical," she said of the designs.
"But I think that they took a lot of what everyone wanted that they could put into it, into it."
City of Renton project lead Leslie Betlach was excited to see more people out for this meeting than
the previous one in May. There is still no budget for the project, as the city identifies grants and
other funding sources. The next step is for the project team to distill all the information into a draft
master plan, which the public will get to comment on Sept.23 at another community meeting.
"Right now we don't want to limit ourselves; we're trying to define what components the public
desires in the park and where they would like to have them located and the size and configuration,"
said Betlach about a budget for the project. "So we don't want to constrain this part ofthe process
with a number."

by pergolas and seating. An interpretive area sits within the rain gardens as an opportunity
for education and as a smaller, more intimate space. A picnic gazebo provides views of the
surrounding landscape and features a covered picnic area. Some picnic areas are open.
• Seating options include sheltered and unsheltered benches and seatwalls.
• The play areas are separated and have adjacent picnic or "parent" plazas. The fitness area is
located adjacent to the play areas.
• Gentle slopes for kids to roll down are integrated into the park design through a grass berm
adjacent to the playgrounds.
• The central plaza incorporates a water feature with meandering channel and boulders.
• Many options for seating are included throughout the park, including park benches in the central
plaza, seatwalls at park entrances, picnic table areas, and benches under the pergolas in the main
open space area. Low level lighting has been integrated into walls and/or stands alone.
• The restroom is located for maintenance access, and is situated close to the plaza and to the main
open space/performance area.
Participant comments and questions during the presentation included:
1) Question: Is the lighting for the walls and seating going to be overhead lights or recessed lighting?
Response: The lighting incorporated in the walls and seating is intended to be recessed lighting.
2) Comment: Likes the modern restroom photo example.
Response: The restroom building will be architecturally modern.
3) Comment: Likes that no hills (for kids to roll on) run directly into the street.
4) Comment: Likes overhead structures that provide shade and cover during rainy season.
5) Question: What plants will be in the rain gardens?
Response: The plant palette will be native and drought tolerant, with a few accent plants and
boulders; more gardenesque.
6) Comment: The rain garden should look aesthetically appealing.
7) Question: Will there be enough parking at the library?
Response: There will be 43 stalls around the park and underground parking will be included for
the library and adjacent mixed use housing. There will also be underground parking for the other
multi -housing units as they are developed.
8) Question: Will the underground parking be available for people using the park?
Response: The surface parking will be available for park users. This park is classified as a
Neighborhood Park, which typically does not provide a parking lot and is intended to be accessed
by people within a % mile walking distance.
9) Question: Will the restroom be open 24 hours a day?
Response: The restroom will be open from dawn to dusk, following adopted Park Rules and
Regulations.
10) Question: Will there be time limits on the parking stalls surrounding the park?
Response: Parking may have time limits, but this has not been determined at this time.
11) Question: Will the turtle sculpture be saved?

Page 3 of 3
14) Comment: Likes the circular bench in the interpretive area, because it could provide an area for
reading.
15) Question: Is seating provided under the pergolas?
Response: Seating is provided under the pergolas. There is a seatwall under the pergola at the
entrance near the library. There are benches under the pergolas in the main open space area.
16) Question: Can you explain the street descriptions in the Nearby Facilities exhibit?
Response: Collector Arterial and Local Collector streets are names for types of streets. Collector
Arterials are major streets with high volumes of traffic (such as Sunset Boulevard). Local Collector
streets are geared for lighter traffic flows. Green Collector Arterial and Green Access Local
Collector streets will incorporate Complete Streets concepts, which are designed to create safe
access for all users including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, and cars with street landscape
improvements separating the walks from the streets. These streets are intended to create "green
connections" as well, by providing treatment of stormwater through rain gardens.
17) Question: Does the park have a walkability score?
Response: The park has not been scored at this time. The park creates pedestrian connections to
the surrounding community and civic services.
18) Comment: Likes the designated art locations.
19) Question: Is there a budget for art in the park?
Response: The budget has not been determined yet. Art is part of the programming for the park
and will be included within the budget. Should the park construction be phased, there is the
potential to include the art as part of the second phase. The value of the art will be based upon
the full park build -out and not just the phase the art is installed.
20) Question: Could the pergolas provide more shelter from the rain and provide a continuous cover
above?
Response: This can be considered in further development of the design.
21) Comment: Mileage markers should be included on the loop trail.
22) Comment: The play area should include swings.
23) Comment: Likes the Port of Olympia water feature.
Presentation to the City of Renton Parks Commission and the City Council.
Adoption of the Master Plan in November by the City Council.

Renton Reporter Article
Kids get a chance to weigh in on
new Sunset Park design
Highlands residents hear about features of anew neighborhood park that's being planned there.—/mageCredit:
Tracey Compton, Renton Reporter
byTRACEY COMPTON, Renton Reporter Staff Writer
Sep 25, 2014 at 2:03PM
For the first time ever, kids weighed -in on what they thought belongs at a new park being planned in
the Renton Highlands.
"There's a meeting for a playground and it's all adults; it's like how do you know what the kids are
gonna want?" said Madeline Bufort, 11.
Bufort spoke during Tuesday night's third and final community meeting on the Sunset
Neighborhood Park Master Plan at McKnight Middle School, which also featured great reviews for
what the City of Renton, landscape architect HBB and engineer CH2MHILL have come up with so far.
Bufort thought the plans forth park are really cool and she's excited to see it built. She is hoping
that city officials decide to move the turtle statue that currently sits outside the old Highlands
Library to the new location once it's built. The library borders the park on the southeast corner.
"I thought the plans were really cool and I couldn't wait to play," said her younger sister Sara. "I
think Madeline's ideas are really great and I love the way they decided things and got other ideas
from other parks."
Sara's hoping for a spinning toy at the new park
Overall the feedback from the community members in the room was very positive. This iteration of
the master plan features a main access spine through the park along Harrington Avenue, a boulder
feature water channel, centrally located bathrooms, playgrounds for ages 2 to 5 and 5 to 12, an
orchard tree concept, rain gardens, a grass hill and plenty of open space.
This was the third meeting to solicit feedback on the design.
Marsha Rollinger is on the Renton Arts Commission and attended to make sure that art and objects
like the Highlands Library turtle are incorporated into the park's final design.
144 Sunset Neighborhood Park Master Plan
"I think it's a good community meeting spot, especiallywith the new library addition," she said. "I'm
all forgetting people more out into nature and I think parks area great way to do this. This is a good
example of a mixed -use park that should work."
The Sunset Neighborhood Park is part of a larger built out of the Sunset Planned Action
Environmental Impact Statement Area that includes the new Meadow Crest Early Education Center
and its accessible playground, the new Highlands Library and the new housing and retail space
planned around the park.
Leslie Betlach is "very excited" and "really happy" about the project. She is the city's parks planning
and natural resources director.
"We had great public feedback, great involvement and it's their park and I think they're really going
to enjoy it," she said.
At this point it's still not clear how the project will be funded. Betlach's group has a budget request
in for2017 to fund park construction and she says there are opportunities to get grants in between
now and then to fund all or part of construction.
"I think the hard part is going to be coming up with the construction money," she said. "That's the
first hurdle."
The next steps are to make any further revisions then present it to the Renton Parks Commission,
who then can recommend the project to City Council. Betlach and her team go before the Renton
Parks Commission on October 14 and the project could be recommended to City Council as soon as
November.
