REPORT. CARRIED.
Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work
programs adopted as part of its business plan for 200S and beyond. Items noted
included:
* The Renton Public Library is looking for regular library users to join the
Friends of the Library group to help promote library use in the community.
* The economic recovery is alive and well in the City of Renton, with
businesses adding 2,470 more employees to their employment rosters
between October 31st and December 31st in 2004. Business license
records compiled at the end of March, 200S, indicate that in the last quarter
of 2004, nine of the City'S ten largest private employers increased the
number of employees by a combined 1,090.
* April is Disaster Preparedness Month in Washington and a good time to
review personal preparedness plans. Call the Renton Fire Department for
information including free disaster preparedness presentations, handouts,
display kits, and audio-visual presentations.
* The City is taking proactive steps to handle code violations. It is now easy
to report code violations by either calling 42S-430-7373, filling out an on-
line form on the City'S website at www.ci.renton.wa.us, or e-mailing
codecompliance@ci.renton.wa.us.
Jim Codling, 1123 4th Ave. N., Kent, 98032, asked if the City reached a
decision regarding the request to reduce its costs related to the upcoming
hydroplane race at Gene Coulon Beach Park.
Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer, explained that in review of the
costs, staff adhered to Council's directive that any City costs associated with the
boat race event be reimbursed. The review was based on last year's estimates,
and information from the event organizers regarding this year's event. Noting
the original cost estimate of $9,400, Mr. Covington indicated that the City can
still recover its costs and lost revenue by charging event organizers $3,730. He
pointed out that the City is not assigning extra emergency service personnel
based on the commitment by event organizers that adequate fire protection will
be provided, and based on their past well-run events.
Items on the consent agenda are adopted by one motion which follows the
listing.
Economic Development, Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning Department
submitted 10% Notice of Intent to annex petition for the proposed Hoquiam
Annexation, and recommended a public meeting be set on April2S, 200S, to
consider the petition; 20.49 acres located along the west and east sides of
Hoquiam Ave. NE between 140th Ave. SE and 144th Ave. SE. Council concur.
Hearing Examiner recommended approval, with conditions, of the Parks ide
Preliminary Plat; IS single-family lots on 2.77 acres located at 2204 NE 24th
St. (PP-04-1SS). Council concur.

Appeal by DAVE PARRY, d/b/a HERITAGE
HOMES, of Hearing Examiner recommendation
dated ] 11 0/2005 regarding the Heritage Homes
application for a 2-lot subdivision, located at
620 South 23rd Street
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT
OF APPEAL
I. INTRODUCTION
Appellant Dave Parry (d/b/a Heritage Homes) submitted a preliminary plat application
to divide one large lot into two lots, both of which far exceed the minimum lot size hi the R-8
zone where they are located. The Hearing Examiner mistakenly recommended denial of the
plat application because he did not rely, as he should have, on the lot size requirements for
preliminary plats, but instead relied on an unauthorized, inappropriate density Calculation.
Had the Examiner based his recommendation on either the applicable lot size requirement or
an appropriate density calculation, the preliminary plat would have met the requirements for
approval.
Moreover, the Planning Department has recently proposed (but the City Council has
not yet passed) new legislation --Docket Item 4-2-7, Minimum Lot Size and Maximum

Density --which seeks to resolve certain internal inconsistencies in the Renton Municipal
Code ("RMC") involving density versus lot size. If passed, the legislation would change the
code to permit the type of density calculation the Examiner used to recommend denial of Mr.
Parry's preliminary plat. The fact that this code amendment has been proposed proves that
the Examiner's reasoning went beyond and was contrary to the current code applicable to Mr.
Parry's application.
Accordingly, the Council should grant Mr. Parry's appeal, and approve the
preliminary plat application.
II. STATEMENT OF FACTS
The development called "Park Place" consists of two completely separate but adjacent
parcels: Park Place I is 0.479 acres in size; and Park Place II is 0.70 acres in size. See
attached map (Exhibit A). Mr. Parry's predecessor initially obtained Park Place I, and
submitted an application to short plat it into four lots. The predecessor then subsequently
purchased Park Place II (adjacent to Park Place I), and applied to short plat Park Place II into
five lots. Both applications were pending at the time of Mr. Parry's purchase of Park Place.
Both short plats were approved by the City in the summer of 2004, and were recorded on
September 7, 2004.
The preliminary plat application at issue here would divide Lot 1 of Park Place II into
two lots. At approximately 12,070 square feet, Lot 1 of Park Place n is more than twice the
size of the other lots in Park Place. Mr. Parry purchased Park Place with the understanding
that, after the pending short plats were approved, the oversized Lot 1 in Park Place II could be
further divided into two lots_ Mr. Parry subsequently applied to subdivide Lot 1 of Park Place

II into two lots, approximately 5,790 square feet and 6,280 square feet in size -. well above
the 4,500-square·foot minimum lot size applicable in the R-8 district
As discussed in more detail below, although preliminary plat regulations state that lot
size and not density detennines the number of lots permitted, the Examiner instead relied on a
density calculation which included not only the property that is the subject of the application,
but also the "parent" property --the Park Place II short plat --which resulted in a density
slightly above that pennitted for the R-8 zone. This density calculation method is not
currently authorized by the code, and as discussed below a proposed code amendment is due
to be considered by the City Council which would legalize the method the Examiner used.
The Hearing Examiner recommended denial of Mr. Parry's application based on the
unauthorized density calculation, and that recommendation is the subject of this appeal.
III. ISSUE PRESENTED
Under the Renton Municipal Code, where a proposed preliminary plat meets minimum
residential lot size requirements --and the property subject to the application meets density
standards --may the application be nonetheless denied based on a density calculation which
includes property that is not part of the current plat application?
A.
IV. AUTHORITY AND ARGUMENT
Minimum Lot Size Regulations -Not Density Relulations -Determine the
Number of Lots Permitted by Preliminary Plat.
In this case there is no dispute that the minimum lot size in the R-8 zoning district is
4,500 square feet. Further, it is not in dispute that the two lots which would result from Mr.

Parry's preliminary plat application (5,793 and 6,280 square feet) both meet the applicable
standard.
Mr. Parry applied to divide Lot 1 of Park Place II into two lots via the preliminary plat
process --instead of the short subdivision process --because of an RMC directive to do so:
No application for a short subdivision shall be approved if the land being divided is
held in common ownership with a contiguous parcel which has been divided in a short
subdivision within the preceding five years." Such applications must be processed as
fa] preliminary plat. rather than a short plat.
RMC 4-7-070(c)(2) (emphasis added)." Since Park Place II had recently been short platted,
Mr. Parry submitted his applicatio~ as a preliminary plat rather than a short plat. Thus, the
regulations pertaining to preliminary plats are detenninative here.
The general requirements and minimum standards applicable to lots created by
preliminary plat are set forth in RMC 4-7-170, which addresses only minimum lot size, not
density:
The size, shape, and orientation of lots shall meet the minimum area and width
requirements of the applicable zoning classification and shall be appropriate for the
type of development and use contemplated.
RMC 4-7-170(C) (emphasis added). Thus, for preliminary plats such as the one at issue here,
the number and size oflots is determined by mlnimum lot size regulations, and not density.
Accordingly, Mr. Parry's appeal should be granted, and the preliminary plat application
approved.

B. Newly Proposed RMC Amendments Which Would Change the Code to Make
What the Examiner Did Permissible Demonstrate that the Examiner Went
Beyond the Current Code in Making His Recommendation of Denial.
Although the code mandates that lot size (not density) is detenninative for preliminary
plats, the Planning staff and Hearing Examiner apparently believed that the better policy is to
detennine the number of lots pennitted based upon residential density where it conflicts with
minimum lot size. In recommending denial here, the Examiner calculated density by looking
not only at the property that is the subject of the application, but also the units and area within
the "parenf' property --the Park Place II short plat. The total area of Park Place II, including
the property that is the subject of the current preliminary plat application, is 0.7 acres in size.
Thus, with the additional unit proposed in the ClUTent preliminary plat application and the
other five units in Park Place II, divided by 0.7 acres, equals approximately 8.57 dwelling
units per acre. The Examiner erred in calculating density in this manner. There is no express
language in the RMCauthorizing this method, nor can the code be reasonably interpreted to
allow it.
In fact, an internal contlict does exist in the RMC between preliminary plat minimum
lot size regulations and the RMC's zoning density regulations. A newly proposed code
amendment promoted by the Planning Department to address this conflict --Docket Item 4-2-
7, Minimum Lot Size and Maximum Densityl --is in line for the Council's consideration. It
would amend the code to pennit the type of density calculation the Examiner relied upon in
this case.

There is no language in the current code that restricts subdivision of property to ensure
consistency with density requirements within a prior overlapping "parent" plat. The proposed
amendments to the RMC would change this to include language in section 4-7-170(C) stating:
Further subdivision of lots within a plat approved through the provisions of this
chapter must be consistent with the applicable maximum density requirements as
measured within the plat as a whole.
Staff Report for Docket Item 4-2-7, Minimum Lot Size and Maximum Density, at p. 4 (italics
added) (attached. as Exhibit B). That is exactly the method relied upon by the Examiner here:
he included the previous plat when calculating the density for the proposed. preliminary plat.
The fact that such language is proposed to be added demonstrates that it is not authorized
under the current code. The Examiner went beyond the bounds of the current code in
recommending denial of Mr. Parry's application -otherwise, the proposed amendment would
be unnecessary. Of course, if the Council does detennine to adopt such a proposed policy,
statutory law and fwidamental fairness dictate that it not be applied to Mr. Parry retroactively.
The fact that the current code recognizes lot size --not density --as the detennining
factor for preliminary plat approval is also confirmed by the Staff Report for the proposed.
code amendments, which states:
S~ction 4-7 -070(N) requires' any property with an approved subdivision to go through
the full subdivision process if a request to further subdivide is submitted within the
five-year period following approval of the short subdivision. There is no similar
provision for property that has been approved through a full subdivision. In addition,
and as described in Section 4-7 -160C [ sic], the full subdivision requirements do not
s.pecifica11y regulate based on density, but rather on minimum lot size.

It is clear that the Examiner should have relied on lot size, not density, when
considering Mr. Parry's pre)jrninary plat application. Instead, he relied on an unauthorized
type of density calculation to support his recommendation of denial. Accordingly. because
the two lots proposed in Mr. Parry's preliminary plat meet minimum lot area regulations, and
the preliminary plat regulations do not regulate based on density, but rather on minimum lot
size, Mr. Parry's preliminary plat application should be approved, and the Examiner's
recommendation rejected.
C. If Density Is Calculated Appropriately, the Park Place Preliminary Plat
Complies with Applicable Density Regulations.
Park Place is within the City's R-8 zoning district. The RMC provides, generally, that
the R-8 district:
is established for single-family residential dwellings allowing a range oftive (5) to
eight (8) dwelling units per acre, with the goal of obtaining a density of eight (8)
dwelling units per net acre. Development in the R-8 zone is intended to create new
opportunities for single-family residential neighborhoods and to facilitate high-quality
infill development that increases density while maintaining the single--family character
of the neighborhood.
RMC 4-2-020{E) (emphasis added).
Mr. Parry's preliminary plat application seeks to create two dwelling units on 0.277
acres; 0.277 acres divided by 2 equals 0.1385 acres; 1 acre divided by 0.1385 equals 7.22
units per acre. Thus, the density of the preliminary plat proposal is 7.2 dwelling units per acre
--well within the limit of eight units per acre. As stated above, the code makes minimum lot
area the deciding factor for preliminary plat applications. However, if density is considered
appropriately, the proposal clearly meets the density regulations for the R-8 district.

As discussed above, in making his recommendation to deny Mr. Parry's preliminary
plat, the Examiner relied upon calculations that look beyond the property that is the subject of
the application, to include all of the Park Place II short plat, which resulted in a density of
approximately 8.57 dwelling units per acre. This was legally erroneous.
Statutes or ordinances must be construed so as to effect the intent of the legislative
body that adopted the ordinance or statute. Muckleshoot Indian Tribe v. Dept. of Ecology,
112 Wn. App. 712, 727-728, 50 P.3d 668 (Div. 1,2002). However, there is no need to
interpret an unambiguous ordinance, and even then, "the agency's interpretation [in this case,
the Hearing Examiner's] is not absolutely controlling". Hoberg v. City o/Bellevue, 76 Wn.
App. 357,359-360,884 P.2d 1339 (Div. 1 1994); Crown Cascade, Inc. v. 0 'Neal, 100 Wn.2d
256, 262, 668 P .2d 585 (1983) ("Here, the statutory language is plain and the statute is,
therefore, not open to construction or interpretation.").
The reviewing body is "obliged to give the plain language of a statue its full effect".
Chelan County v. Nykreim, 146 Wn.2d 926, 904, S3 P.3d I (2002) (citations omitted). Thus,
there are limits to how far the language of an ordinance may be stretched through
"interpretation." While an agency (or Hearing Examiner) may fill in gaps to effectuate a
general statutory scheme, it may not, via statutory construction, ''purport to amend the
statute." Hama Hama Co. v. Shorelines Hearings Board, 85 Wn.2d 441, 448, 536 P.2d 157
(1975).
If the Council agrees to adopt the proposed code amendments, they will only apply
prospectively to future subdivisions in Renton. Washington law requires that subdivision
applications be processed pursuant to the regulations in existence at the time a complete

application is filed. RCW 58.17.033; see also RCW 36.70A.470 (last two pages of Ex. B)?
In this case, the Examiner's actions are particularly egregious because the Council has yet
even to consider this proposed policy. For example, as the authors of the Staff Report note,
the City Council could decide that the better approach is to have minimwn lot size always
control over density regulations, as is done in the City of Bellevue. See Docket Item 4-2-7 at
p. 2, footnote 1 (Ex. B).
If the Examiner's "interpretation" of the code were correct and/or appropriate, there
would be no need to amend the code. Proposed Docket Item 4-2-7 clearly demonstrates that
the Examiner's "interpretation" of the code stretches the code language too far, and
constitutes an impennissible rewriting of the code. Hama Hama Co. v. Shorelines Hearings
Board. 85 Wn.2d 441,448,536 P.2d 157 (1975). Accordingly, even if the City Council
adopts this docket item, the Examiner's recommendation must be disregarded, and Mr.
Parry's preliminary plat application must be approved.
D. Density Bonuses Applicable to Lots Less than 0.5 Acres Could Also Apply in This
Case.
Even if it were appropriate to look beyond the property that is the subject of the
preliminary plat application --as the Examiner did --the Council should consider not only the
0.7-acre Park Place II short plat, but also the contiguous 0.47-acre Park Place l. If one

includes both Park Place I and II in calculating density, the proposal complies with applicable
density standards. Because it is smaller than one-half acre, the permissible density for Park
Place I is 9.7 units per acre.3 Four units could be provided in Park Place I using only 0.42
acres, resulting in a density of 9.5 dwelling units per acre. This would result in an extra 0.059
acres from Park Place I (0.479 total acres, minus 0.42 acres, equals 0.059 acres extra) which
could be transferred to Park Place II. The density of Park Place II, with the additional one
unit from the Park Place preliminary plat and the leftover acreage from Park Place I, would be
7.9 dwelling units per acre (six units divided by 0.759 acres equals 7.9 dwelling units per
acre).4
City staff argues, looking at Park Place I and Park Place II, that density standards
would be exceeded, because if ten units are used for purposes of the calculation, divided by
the I.I8-acre total of Park Place I and Park Place II (0.479 plus 0.7 equals 1.8), the overall
density is 8.47 dwelling units per acre. Mr. Parry does not dispute the City's math. However,
this also assumes that a developer with one small parcel meeting the O.S-acre or less density
bonus of9.7 units per acre loses that bonus when the property is developed with an adjacent
lot larger than 0.5 acres. There is no justification for penalizing a developer in such a manner.
Any rational person in this situation would first develop the smaller parcel pursuant to the
applicable density bonus, setting aside any remaining property unneeded to meet density
requirements to be developed in conjunction with the second, larger parcel.
24 3 The RMC provides that, in the R-8 district, the maximum density shall be "9.7 dwelling units perone net acre
for subdivision oflots .5 gross acre in size or less as of March 1, 1995." RMC 4-2-110(A), Table 1.
25 4 For the convenience of the Council. the parties have descnlled different density measurements and stipulated to
the accuracy of the calculations. That stipulation is attached as Exhibit C.

Moreover, nothing in the code language supports the imposition of such a penalty.
Even if we assumed the language of the code were ambiguous in pennitting consideration of
property outside the property that is the subject of the current application, the language of the
code suggests that the interpretation that allows more development would be appropriate. For
example, the R-8 zoning district is described in RMC 4-2-020(E), and it states that the
purpose of the district is to allow:
a range of five (5) to eight (8) dwelling units per acre, with the goal of obtaining a
density of eight (8) dwelling units per net acre. Development in the R-8 zone is
intended to create new mmortunities for single~family residential neighborhoods and
to facilitate high-quality inlin· development that increases density while maintaining
the single-family character of the neighborhood.
RMC 4~2-020(E) (emphasis added).
Accordingly, if the goal of the R-8 district were to pennit a density of five to eight
units per acre with a goal of obtaining five units per acre, the Hearing Examiner's
"interpretation" would be correct. However, the code language provides for just the opposite:
the goal is eight units per acre. Further, the cOde language focuses on new and/or additional
opportunities for development and increasing density. Thus, even if the code language were
subject to interpretation, the code should be interpreted in a manner that provides for higher
density and increased development, rather than less density and no additional units.
V. CONCLUSION
As set forth above, the unambiguous language of the code indicates that the number
and size of dwelling units for preliminary plat applications is detennined by minimum lot
size. The two lots proposed by Mr. Parry in this preliminary plat application clearly exceed
the applicable 4,500-square-foot minimum lot size. The City staff and Hearing Examiner may

well believe that it would be better for the City to regulate dwelling units using density
calculations for new plats which are based on the density of previous plats, rather than
minimum lot size. However, that is not how the current code says it should be done. It is for
the City Council, not the Hearing Examiner, to set the City's land use policies. If and when
adopted, such new policies, as a matter oflaw and of fairness to property owners, apply only
prospectively. Accordingly, the Hearing Examiner's recommendation must be rejected, and
Mr. Parry's preliminary plat application must be approved.

TITLE 4, CHAPTERS 2 AND 7
MINIMUM LOT SIZE AND MAXIMUM DENSITY
OESCRIPTIONIPURPOSE
The purpose of this docket analysis is to consider possible amendments to rrtfe 4 in order to address an
inconsistency between minimum lot size and maximum density in the R-4 and R~8 zones. The issues
discussed In this paper should be considered in conjunction with a related docket analysis for the R-10
zone which addresses. in part, the same Issue (properties meeting minimum lot size but not density).

In the R-4 zone, clustering Is allowed as 8 transition between R-4 and R-8 zones.
In both of these zones. the subdivision of property into varying lot sizes, ranging from the minimum
pennitted lot size to larger lots, could result In the potential for future division of lots that exceed the
maximum housing denslty for the zone. The following examples show how this may occur.
Example 1. In the R-8 zone, a site with one net aas Is subdivided with seven (7) lots consisting
of 4,500 square feet and one lot containing 12,060 square feet. At the time of subdiviSion, the
site meets the maximum lot size requirement of eight (8) dwelling units/1net acre.
Subsequently, the owner of the 12,060 squarafoot IotseekB approval 00 subdivide the lot into two
single-family Iota. In the context of the 12,060 square foot lot considered In isolation from the
prior subdivlsion, this action 18 consistent with the mlnJmum lot size requirements for the zone and
the maximum density requirement. it would resutt in nine (9) lots in the larger approved
subdivision in which it is located, exceeding the maximum housing density for the larger
SUbdivision. .
Example 2, In the R-4 zone; a site with 1.25 net acres is subdivided Into four (4) lots of B,OOO
square feet each and a fifth lot of 22,450 square feet.
Subsequently, the property owner of the 22.450 square foot lot seeks approval to subdivide their
property into two (2) lots. This meets the minimum lot size requirement and maximum density
requirements for the subject property. but violates the maximum density requirements for the
original subdivision.
These issues do not appear to be of Similar concern In the R·10 and R-14 zones because there are
requirements for covenants to establish density and dwelling mix requirements. There Is no difference in

fot siZe and density for the RC and R·1 zones. except in the R-1 zone where clustering is a pOsslbilit)l.
and the recommendations later for the R-4 and R-8 zone should address the R-1 cluster situation as well.
Dlacusslon. The City has received Inquiries from property owners in situations similar to these
examples. The inqulrfes Involve property that is part of a prior subdivision that meets the City's maximum
density requlremants and Includes a fot or lots that could be further subdivided according to the minimum
lot size standards. In thase cases, further subdivision of a lot or lots within the subdivision would violate
the maximum density standard of the original subdivision, but woufd be consistent with the lot size and
density requirements for the smaUer property. Currently. there are no explicit provisions In the zoning or
subdivision regulations that would alert property owners or staff to this potential conflict.
Applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code are found in Tltte 4. Chapter 7 Subdivision Regulations
Chapter 7 identifies a short subdivision process for divlsion of land into 9 lots or less and a subdivision
process for dlvlslon of land into 10 lots or more. Provisions that address multiple divisions of land and
minimum residentiaJ size standards are listed below.
Detailed Procedures for Shalt Subdivisions, SectIon 4-7..()70 N. Umltatlons on Further
SubdJviBlon: Any land subdivided under the requirements of this Section shall not be
further divided for III period of five (6) yealS without fOllowing the procedures for
subdlvl8lon.

Secttan 4-7-070 N requfre8 any property with an approved short subdivision to go through the full
subdivision process If a request to further subdivide Is submitted within the five-year period foRowing
approval of the short subdivision. There is no slmuar requirement for property that has been approved
through a fun subdivision. In addition and as described In Section 4-7·160C. the fuU subdivision
requirements do not specIfic:ally regulate based on density. bUt rather on minimum lot size. These .
existing provisions do not address the situation described in the examples above.
Chapter 7; Section 4-7~ provides spec:Iflc guidance regarding density for preliminary plats that have
been approved whUe In unincorporated King County and subsequenUy annexed to the CHy. Paragraph
B.1 states that overall density of the subdivision shan not exceed the maximum density allowed in the
Zoning Code. It further states that lot size and lot width requirements need not comply 80 long as the
density requirement Is satisfied. ThIs provision only applies to property that has preliminary plat approva!
from the County priOr to annexation to the City.
Objective.. The City's objectives In addressing this Issue are to (1) ensure that maximum density
requirements are maintained following subdivision approvars'; (2) continue to provide for flexibility In lot
sizes within residential subdMslons; and (3) ensure that property owners understand the lot size Bnd
density restrictions on their property. Issues. options and approaches for achieving these objectives are
described below.
ISSUES/OPTIONS
Several cities in the Pugst Sound region were swveyed regarding their approach to this issue. Consulted
cities Include Federal Way. Kent, Kirldend. Bellewe, Redmond, and Shoreline. None of the consulted
staff at these cities could recall a situation comparable to those described In the examples above.
f If this Is not an objective of 1he City, an altematiV9 approach to resoMng lhislssue would be to atate that where
Ihere Is a conflict between mfniml.lTllot size and denslty. minimum lot size contR:Jls. This Is the approach taken by
the CIty of Bellevue and is described In the Issues/Options section of this paper.
October 28, 2004 Page 2
Preoated bv Jones & Stokes for Renton EDINfSP Oeoartment
In some dties (Federal Way. Kent. Kirkland). the minimum lot size and density regulations are consistent,
or are sHowed to vary by 10 percent or less, such that the situation could not occur.
Bellevue, Redmond and Shoreline have minimum Jot size and density standards tflat could result in the
situation described In the examples. However. none could recall any situations where it had occurred.
Infonnation provided by each dty is summarized below:
• City of Bellevue. The City has a C(Jde pro'liBlon that applies to all residential zones stating that if
there is a conflict between minimum lot size and density. minimum lot size controfs.
• CIty of Redmond. The City has a working poIloy that restricts future subdivision of previously
platted 1ob5. Although this Is not a formal regulation, staff state that property owners fA. informed
that If the property had been previously platted and conditions were unCh8nged-, no additional
subdivision is permilted. The Interviewed planner reported that this type of inquiry rarely occurs
and was not aware of any property owners that had questioned the City's informaJ policy.
• City of Shoreline. The City does not address this issue. The interviewed planner stated that the
zone In whfch this inconSistency could occur is fully developed and not in an ares where re-
dev~opment is likely. so the Issue has not been a problem for the City.
Although not specifically Identified by any of the surveyed jurtsdfctfons, another potential regulatory option
could specifically state that maximum density for an approved subdivision cannot be exceeded. In order
to provide adequate Information to property owners, this reslrtctfon could be recorded with the flnal plat
map. .
Conclusion. The City of Bellevue approach of establishing that minimum lot size prevaits in the case of
conft1ct does not satisfy the City's objective of ensuring that the maximum density requirement Is
malntaJned foDowing subdMsIOn approval and Is .inconsistent with how the City approaches other zones
such as R-10 and R-14 provisions that indicate that density controls. However, the BeHewe approach
does recognIZe that citizens typically experience density in terms of lot size of their property and
neighboring properties. rather !han the overeU density of the larger area. If the City determines that
continuation of maximum density controls Is not B primary objective, this would be a viable approach to
resolving the conflict between lot size and maximum density.
The infonnal approach of restricting further division of approved subdivisions used by the City of
Redmond results in uncertainty for the City and property owners. The approach In other cities of
maintaining consistency between minimum lot sizes: and maximum density does not meet the City's
ObJeCtive of providing for flexJbtllty In lot sizes In subdivisions.
The recommended approach would apecific:ally establish that the maximum density for en approved
subdivision cannot be exceeded. This approach would satisfy all of the City's objectives and is desc:ribed
below.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Amend the Renton Municipal Code TiHe 4, Chapter 7 (Subd'fvislon Regulations) to require that any

STIPULATION REGARDING CALCULATIONS
Key Tenns:
PPI is the short plat of Park Place 1 (UPPl"), consisting of 4 units on .479 acres.
PP2 is the short plat of Park Place 2, ("PP2") consisting of 5 units on .7 acres.
The Park Pltlce Preliminary Plat is the current proposal to divide Lot 1 ofPP2 into two
lots of 5,793 acres and 6,280 acres.
Appellant currently owns both Park Place 2 and Park Place 1. PP2 is currently
zoned R-8 Single Family, 8 dwelling units/acre.) PPI has a density limit of9.7 dulac
(sites less than Yz acre), and PP2 has a density limit of8.0 dulac (sites greater than Yz
acre). PPI is divided into 4 lots with a dulac of8.3. PP2 is currently.divided into. 5 lots
with a dulac of7.1. Under the current configuration, both parcels meet their respective
density requirements.
In this Appeal, the Applicant and the City Staff will present their respective
analyses on how to calculate density for the proposed Park Place Preliminary Plat. In an
attempt to simplify matters for the Council, the parties have stipulated-only to the
accuracy ofthe mathematical calculations-to the following:
Method 1
Description:
If the density is calculated by considering only the area that is the subject of the current
application, proposed lots 1 and 2 of the Park Place Preliminary Plat (former Lot· 1 of
PP2), then the project density is 7.2 Units Per Acre (2 units divided by .277 acres equals
7.22 Units Per Acre).
Stipulation:
The parties agree that 2 divided by .277 is 7.22.
Method 2
Description:
If the density is calculated by considering proposed lots 1 and 2 of the Park Place
Preliminary Plat and all other lots in the PP2, then the density is 8.57 (6 total resulting
units divided by .7 acres equals 8.57).
Stipulation:
The parties stipulate that 6 divided by .7 is 8.57.
Method 3
Description:
This method of density calculation is the one proposed by Appellant to achieve density
limits for its Preliminary Plat application. If density is calculated by considering Both
PPI and PP2, and allowing the 9.7 Unit per Acre Density Bonus for PPl, then the
calculated Densities are 9.5 Units Per Acre for PPI and 7.9 for PP2, assuming that PP 1 is
platted first and the extra .059 acres can be transferred to PP 2. The calculation is as
follows--4 units divided by .42 acres equals 9.5; and 6 units divided by .759 acres equals
7.9.
1 EXHIBITC
.~. ,.
Stipulation:
The parties stipulate that:
4 divided by .42 is 9.5; and
6 divided by .759 is 7.9.
Method 4
Description:
If density is calculated counting all the units in PP 1 and PP2 over the entire area then the
project density is 8.47 units per acre. (10 total resulting units divided by 1.18 equals 8.47
acres).
Stipulation:
The parties stipulate that 10 divided by 1.18 is 8.47.

2. SPECIFICATION OF ERRORS (Attach additional sheets, if necessary)
Set forth below are the specific errors of law or fact upon which this appeal is based:
FINDING OF FACT: (Please designate number as denoted in the Examiner's report)
No .. 12/13 Error: Although they are really conclusions rather than true factual
determinations, Findings of Fact 12 and 13 are in error to the extent they find
that, "If the original short plat [for Park Place II] had been originally divided
into 6 lots it would have had a density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre."
Correction: Heritage Homes is the owner and developer of two
properties within the City of Renton. These include Park Place I, a 0.479-acre
parcel currently divided into 4 lots, and Park Place II, a 0.7 acre parcel
recently divided into 5 lots via short plat. Heritage Homes purchased Park
Place I and II after the previous owners had already submitted applications for
short plat approval. The properties are located within the R-8 zoning district.
This district permits residential densities of 8 dwelling units on parcels larger
than 1/2 acre and 9.7 dwelling units per acre on parcels smaller than 1/2 acre.
RMC 4-2-110A (Table of Development Standards).

The proposed preliminary plat at issue here would divide former Lot 1
of Park Place II into two lots. As the density calculations in the record
(attached here as Exhibit A) demonstrate, dividing this 12,074-square-foot
parcel into two lots would result in a net density of 7.2 units per acre.
The Hearing Examiner has recommended denial because, in his view,
the applicant is attempting to do something that could not have been
permitted in the initial short plats --namely, developing 6 lots on the Park
Place II Property. This is simply not true. As the density calculations
demonstrate, Park Place I is 0.479 acres, with a permitted density of 9.7 units
per acre. Four units may be developed on Park Place I using only 0.42 acres
(0.42 acres divided by 4 equals a density of 9.5 units per acre). The remaining
0.059 acres of Park Place I could have then been transferred via boundary line
adjustment into Park Place II (0.7 acres), resulting in a total acreage of 0.759
acres (0.7 plus 0.059 equals 0.759). Developed with 6 lots, the density of Park
Place II would be 7.9 units per acre (0.759 divided by 6 equals 7.9 units per
acre).
Through the current preliminary plat application, Heritage Homes
seeks only to obtain a result that could have been obtained through the short
plat process. This result would, in fact, be more consistent with the RMC
because it states that densities of 5 to 8 units per acre are permitted in the R-8
zone "with the goal of obtaining a density of eight (8) dwelling units per net
acre." RMC 4-2-020(E) (emphasis added). With approval of the current
proposed preliminary plat, the density would be 7.9 units per acre, as
opposed to 7.14 units per acre if the preliminary plat is denied.
CONCLUSIONS:
No.1. 2 and3 Error: The Examiner erred in concluding that the proposal "does not
serve the public use and interest" and that "it subverts the density .
requirements of the R-8 Zone and the goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan" (Conclusion 1). The Examiner erred in concluding that
"it is that division, the division of .7 acres into 5 discrete separate lots which
governs this review. It is neither appropriate nor reasonable to seek out some
other event ... to determine this proposed division ... [and that the
application) "attempts to sidestep the density standards". (Conclusion 2).
Finally, the Hearing Examiner erred in concluding that the application is "an
inappropriate request," and that it should be denied "because it violates the
underlying density standards" (Conclusion of Law 3).
Correction: The Hearing Examiner erred in concluding that density
must be determined solely with respect to the boundaries of the former Park
Place II short plat. That is not a written requirement of the code, nor an
"interpretation" of it, but instead is something that the Examiner seeks to
write into the code himself. The Examiner goes beyond interpreting the code
in this regard, and does not have the authority to impose his own
modification to the code. As stated above, this preliminary plat application
does not seek to "subvert" density standards. Park Place I and II could have .
been lawfully developed with a total of 10 lots (4 on Park Place I and 6 on
Page 2 of 3
Park Place II) via the initial short plats. In fact, the proposed plat would be
more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning code, which state
that the goal of the R-8 zone is to establish eight units per acre. The
Examiner's decision should be reversed by the City Council as arbitrary,
placing form over substance.
3. SUMMARY OF ACTION REQUESTED: The City Council is. requested to grant the
following relief: (Attach explanation, if desired)
X Reverse the decision or recommendation and grant the following relief:
Pursuant to RMC 4-8-110(F)(8), the Examiner's recommendation should be
disregarded, and the Council should issue its own decision approving the
preliminary plat.
Modify the decision or recommend . on as follows:

Subject: Park Place Preliminary Plat application, 2214 Smithers Ave S., Renton WA.
Dear Development Services Staff:
This letter outlines the application for the Park Place Preliminary Plat at 2214 Smithers
Ave S. Renton VIA. The proposal is to subdivide a 277 acre parcel into 2 residential lots.
A foundation for a single family house is now on the site and will remain.
The current zoning of the site and surrounding area is R-8. The current use of the site is
currently vacant but for a foundation for a single family residence which will remain.
The property fronts on S 23rd ST and Smithers Ave S. Access for the new lot will be from
Smithers Ave S. Both Smithers Ave S and S 23rd ST are newly constructed streets as part
of the Par1c..Place ShortPlat.
All needed utilities are existing in the adjacent streets and have been stubbed into the new
lot in anticipation of this application.
The existing parcel is 12,074 square feet in size. One additional lot will be created. The
lots will be more than the minimum of 4500 square feet. The density allowed is between
5 and 8 units per acre. The proposed density is 7.2 units per acre for this application
subdividing the existing lot 1 of the Park Place Short Plat. (See Density Worksheet) The
City staff has advised tltat even though this application meets the density regulations of
the City. for subdivision of lot 1, we must look farther and meet the density requirements
for the Park Place Short Plats. We have included two Density Calculations one for only
·lot 1 and another for both of the adjacent Park Place Short Plats. With considering both of
the existing short plats·the proposed density is 7.9 units per acre.
We appreciate the city's review and approval of this application for a two lot subdivision.
If you have any questions please contact me at 360-422-5056.
EXHIBIT A
Park Place Preliminary Plat
Construction Mitigation Plan
The following is a construction mitigation plan for the infrastructure associated with the
Park Place Preliminary Plat.
There will be no construction required since all requirements have been met as part of the
newly constructed Park Place IT Short Plat. All utilities have been stubbed into the new
lot.
A traffic control plan will not be needed.

Approval for a 2-lot subdivision of a 0.28-acre site intended for
detached single-family homes.
Development Services Recommendation: Approve
The Development Services Report was received by the
Examiner on November 30, 2004.
After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining
available information on file with the application, field
checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner
conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows:
MINUTES
Thefollowing minutes are a summary of the December 14,2004 hearing.
The legal record is recorded on CD.
The hearing opened on Tuesday, December 14,2004, at 9:47 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor
of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were entered into the record:

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Susan Fiala, Senior Planner, Development
Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. This site is located in the Talbot Hill
area, north of S 23 rd Street and east of Smithers Avenue South. The site is rectangular in shape, it previously
was Lot 1 of Park Place II Short Plat, all properties are zoned R-8 residential single-family as well as a
comprehensive land designation of Residential Single Family.
The underlying short plat is Park Place II, LUA 03-042 which was approved on June 10,2004 and recorded on
September 7,2004. There is no current structure on the site, on proposed Lot 1 there is a foundation but no
further construction has been done.
Access to this site is proposed via South 23rd Street to Lot I and Lot 2 would be accessed from an existing
access easement that currently serves Lots 4 and 5 of Park Place 11.
The proposed density for the .28-acre site with no deductions would be 7.2 dwelling units per acre. The subject
site was recently short platted for 5 lots. Exhibit 5 illustrates the other short plats, Park Place I is furthest to the
east of this proposed site. It includes four lots on a .48-acre site, the density was 8.3 du/acre which was allowed.
The Park Place II included five lots on the .7-acre site had a density of7.1 du/acre which was permitted under
the R-8 zoning. If the applicant had proposed six lots within this short plat of which Lot 1 is proposed to be
further divided, six lots on the .7-acre site would have been greater than the permitted density of 8 duiacre, that
density would have been 8.6 du/acre.
Staff is recommending denial as the applicant is attempting to achieve a higher density than what the code
allows by subseq~lent la!}duse,applications ..
The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated, including three
mitigation measures. No appeals were filed.
Lots ] and 2 equal or exceed the minimum of 4,500 square feet. The smallest lot, Lot] is 5,793 square feet,
both lots comply with the lot dimension requirements. The proposal's compliance with these setback standards
will be verified prior to the issuance of individual building permits. It appears that they do comply with the
setback standards.
Each detached dweJJing would be required to provide two off-street parking stalls, the building pads appear to
be adequately sized for this provision. Each lot satisfied the minimum lot area and dimension requirements of
the R-8 zone. No additional street improvements are required.
Single family residential surrounds the subject site, the detached single-family homes on these two lots would be
compatible, however, the two additional lots would over densify the existing neighborhood.
A Fire Mitigation Fee was proposed on the plat.
The site is located within the Renton School District and they are able to handle the additional student.
Storm drainage facilities exist in Smithers Avenue South and in South 23rd Street. The applicant would be
required to tightline to the new storm conveyance system. Water and sanitary mains exist in South 23rd Street
and Smithers Avenue South. Water stubs are required to be installed to each new lot prior to recording the short
plat.
Staff recommends denial of the park Place Preliminary Plat.

Jim Hanson, Hanson Consulting, 17446 Mallard Cove Lane, Mt. Vernon, WA 98274 stated that they do agree
with the staff report in that the proposed preliminary plat meets all the requirements of the City's subdivision
ordinance and zoning code with the exception of the issue of overall density. There were discussions with the
City of Renton about a way of further subdividing this property, this particular owner bought the property after .
the short plat application and been approved and in the process of being developed.
The density allowed in the R-8 zone is 8 units per net acre and for this size parcel it meets the density at 7.2
dulac. It is not a re-plat, it is a preliminary plat of Lot 1 of the previous short plat.
Regarding the easement, it was intended to serve Lots 4 and 5 for access, shown as new Lot 2 along Smithers
Avenue could access from Smithers Avenue. In many short plats the City has asked applicants not to put in
another driveway, but to use a shared driveway, therefore, it is not really an easement to Lot 2, but a shared
driveway.
Two density calculations were provided, one showing the density for Lot 1 of the short plat that shows the
density requirement being met at 7.2 dulac. Another density calculation for a neighborhood by taking the two
adjacent short plats, which are owned by the same party, Park Place I had a density of9.7, Park Place II had a
density of 8, both of those met density. If you take the neighborhood density by combining the two, they still
meet a density of Jess than 8 dulac. The City's subdivision ordinance, Section 47.080 C states that if there is
land in common ownership then you cannot go through a short plat, but a preliminary plat, but it doesn't say you
need to include the common land .
. TheY .. l?~lieve they meet the zoning ~~an~ar.~~.and.sub.diyision. standa[9-?for this two:l.QtprelilTIinary plat. The
ERC reviewed the impact of an additional lot and found there was no substantial impact for adding an additional
lot.
Michael P. Witek, 1001 Fourth Avenue, Suite 4200, Seattle, WA 98154 stated that the real question is how
density is calculated. If this proposal is looked at in isolation, it complies with the density requirements. The
project complies with all of the other regulations. It appears that staff is going beyond the subject site and
looking at a broader area, how broad do we look.
The Examiner stated that the only issue is density. It is one of the criteria, all other things aside, if code is not
met then you don't meet code.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:45 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Dave Perry, Heritage Homes, filed a request for a Preliminary Plat.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit # 1.
3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of
Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M).
Park Place Preliminary Plat

January 10, 2005
Page 4
4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
5. The subject site is located at 620 South 23rdStreet.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single-family uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family - 8 dwelling units/acre).
8. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 33 16, enacted in May 1979.
9. The applicant proposes dividing a 0.28-acre parcel into two lots. Normally, this type of subdivision,
dividing one lot into two lots, would be a short plat. The fact that the property proposed for division
was itself the result of a short plat approved within last five (5) years, reqllires a full Preliminary Plat
under State and City regulations. The Shol1 plat was recorded on September 7. 2004 under Recording
Number 20040907900011.
10. RCW 58.17.060 provides that:
Short plats and short subdivisions --Summary approval --Regulations --Requirements.
(I) The .Iegislative body of a city, town, or county shall adopt regulations and procedures, and
. ippoint 'administrati~e personnei f~r the sUllllnary approval of short plats and sh'ort subdivisIons
or alteration or vacation thereof. When an alteration or vacation involves a public dedication,
the alteration or vacation shall be processed as provided in RCW or. Such regulations shall be
adopted by ordinance and shall provide that a short plat and short subdivision may be approved
only if written findings that are appropriate, as provided in RCW, are made by the
administrative personnel, and may contain wholly different requirements than those governing
the approval of preliminary and final plats of subdivisions and may require surveys and
monumentations and shall require filing of a short plat, or alteration or vacation thereof, for
record in the office of the county auditor: PROVIDED, That such regulations must contain a
requirement that land in short subdivisions may not be further divided in any manner within a
period of five years without the filing of a final plat, except that when the short plat contains
fewer than four parcels, nothing in this section shall prevent the owner who filed the short plat
from filing an alteration within the five-year period to create up to a total of four lots within the
original short plat boundaries: PROVIDED FURTHER, That such regulations are not required
to contain a penalty clause as provided in RCW and may provide for wholly injunctive relief.
The Renton Municipal Code Section 4-7-070.C.2 provides similar language with the following
requirements:
I. Short Plat Process Applicable to Division into Nine (9) or Less Lots: Any land being
divided into nine (9) or less parcels, lots, tracts, sites, or subdivisions, including
segregations, and which has not been divided in a short subdivision within a period of
five (5) years, shall meet the requirements of this Section.
2. Preliminary Plat Required for Certain Divisions: No application for a short
subdivision shall be approved if the land being divided is held in common ownership
with a contiguous parcel which has been divided in a short subdivision within the
Park Place Preliminary Plat

preceding five (5) years. Such applications must be processed as preliminary plat, rather
than a short plat.
] 1. The original $hort plat subdivided 0.70 acres into five (5) lots. That five-lot short plat had a density of
7.] dwelling units per acre.
] 2. Staff noted that if the original short plat had been originally been divided into 6 lots it would have had a
density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre. The R-8 Zone permits lots over 0.5 acres to have a density which
can range fromS to 8 dwelling units per acre. Staff noted that the proposed plat would not meet the
original code requirements for this site.
13. Dividing Lot J's existing 0.28 acres into two lots as proposed would result in a density of7.2 dwelling
units per acre. Staff suggested that because this proposal is considered a Preliminary Plat, it
encompasses the entire original acreage and then reviewed for compliance with density standards.
] 4. The subject site is generally flat. It was cleared of vegetation under the prior short plat approval.
15. The two new lots as well as the former lots are rectangular and their property lines are generally at right
angles to the street.
]6. Access to the interior parcels, Lots 4 and 5 of the original short plat,.are via an easement. That
easement would also provide access to. Proposed Lot 2 of this new plat to limit the driveways along
. Sm ithers A venue SQuth.
17. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately one school age child assigned on a space available basis.
18. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit.
19. There would be little change to the utility needs of the one additional lot and subsequent home.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed plat does not serve the public use and interest. It subverts the density requirements of the
R-8 Zone and the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan in setting those density guidelines.
2. There is one reason the proposed division of property into two lots has to be reviewed as a Preliminary
Plat and is not considered a short plat. That reason is that the lot proposed for division was itself created
by a short plat recorded within the last five (5) years, actually, within the last 6 months. Since the
triggering act was the division approved on June 10, 2004 (File Number LUA-03-042) and recorded on
September 7, 2004 (Recording Number 20040907900011), the only logical way to view this plat is to
look at that most recent division. It is that division, the division of 0.7 acres into five discrete separate
lots which governs this review. It is neither appropriate nor reasonable to seek out some other event or
subdivision or ownership question either recent or more distant to determine this proposed subdivision.
The lot now proposed for division was created by the short plat of 0.70 acres. That is the property and
that is the acreage that needs to be considered in this review. Taking that entire 0.70 acres and dividing
it into 6 lots results in a density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre. That violates the density standards of the
R-8 Zone. So while it appears that the proposal presents some unique issues, it merely presents a direct
assault on the density standards enacted by the City Council. It attempts to sidestep the density
standards by initially short platting acreage that would have been insufficient for a six-lot plat into a five ..

lot plat and then, shortly thereafter, attempting to re-divide one of those lots in that initially insufficient
parcel. It is an inappropriate request.
3. The Proposed Preliminary Plat should be denied by the City CounCil since it violates the underlying
density standards of the City's Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council should deny the Preliminary Plat.

Pursuant to Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 100Gofthe City's Code, request for reconsideration must be filed in
writing on or before 5:00 p.m., January 24, 2005. Any aggrieved person feeling that the decision of the

discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written
request for a review by the Examiner within fourteen (14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This
request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant, and the Examiner may,
after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Chapter 8, Section lID, which requires that such appeal
be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of $75.00 and meeting other specified requirements.
Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City
Hall. An appeal must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m., January 24, 2005.
If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Covenants, the
executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Councilor final processing ofthe file. You
may contact this office for information on formatting covenants.
The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may occur
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the
evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine appiie·s not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as
Appeals to the City Council.

2. SPECIFICATION OF ERRORS (Attach additional sheets, if necessary)
Set forth below are the specific errors of law or fact upon which this appeal is based:
FINDING OF FACT: (Please designate number as denoted in the Examiner's report)
No .. 12/13 Error: Although they are really conclusions rather than true factual
determinations, Findings of Fact 12 and 13 are in error to the extent they find
that, "If the original short plat [for Park Place II] had been originally divided
into 6 lots it would have had a density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre."
CQP:~.ct.~on: Heritage Homes is the owner and developer of two
properties within theCiqr of Renton. These include Park Place I, a 0.479-acre
parcel currently divided into 4 lots, and Park Place II, a 0.7 acre parcel
recently divided into 5 lots via short plat. Heritage Homes purchased Park
Place I and II after the previous owners had already submitted applications for
short plat approval. The properties are located within the R-8 zoning district.
This district permits residential densities of 8 dwelling units on parcels larger
than 1/2 acre and 9.7 dwelling units per acre on parcels smaller than 1/2 acre.
RMC 4-2-110A (Table of Development Standards).
e e: e~ 4.J+v rf1 ey
/Ii e; J U)a..,fJ.s Page 1 of 3
#1!A.:""1IJ Elf~"I1~' ., .... ,. ,
The proposed preliminary plat at issue here would divide former Lot 1
of Park Place II into two lots. As the density calculations in the record
(attached here a~ Exhibit A) demonstrate, dividing this 12,074-square-foot
parcel into two lots would result in a net density of 7.2 units per acre.
The Hearing Examiner has recommended denial because, in his view,
the applicant is attempting to do something that could not have been
permitted in the initial short plats --namely, developing 6 lots on the Park
Place II Property. This is simply not true. As the density calculations
demonstrate, Park Place I is 0.479 acres, with a permitted density of 9.7 units
per acre. Four units may be developed on Park Place I using only 0.42 acres
(0.42 acres divided by 4 equals a density of 9.5 units per acre). The remaining
0.059 acres of Park Place I could have then been transferred via boundary line
adjustment into Park Place II (0.7 acres), resulting in a total acreage of 0.759
acres (0.7 plus 0.059 equals 0.759). Developed with 6 lots, the density of Park
Place II would be 7.9 units per acre (0.759 divided by 6 equals 7.9 units per
acre).
Through the current preliminary plat application, Heritage Homes
seeks only to obtain a result that could have been obtained through the short
plat process. This result would, in fact, be more consistent with the RMC
because it states that densities of 5 to 8 units per acre are permitted in the R-8
zone "with the goal of obtaining a density of eight (8) dwelling units per net
acre." RMC 4-2-020(E) (emphasis added). With approval of the current
proposed preliminary plat, the density would be 7.9 units per acre, as
opposed to 7.14 units per acre if the preliminary plat is denied.
CONCLUSIONS:
No.1. 2 and3 Error: The Examiner erred in concluding that the proposal "does not
serve the puhlic use and interest" and that "it subverts the density .
requirements of the R-8 Zone and the goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan" (Conclusion 1). The Examiner erred in concluding that
"it is that division, the division of .7 acres into 5 discrete separate lots which
governs this review. It is neither appropriate nor reasonable to seek out some
other event ... to determine this proposed division ... [and that the
application] "attempts to sidestep the density standards". (Conclusion 2).
Finally, the Hearing Examiner erred in concluding that the application is "an
inappropriate request," and that it should be denied "because it violates the
underlying density standards" (Conclusion of Law 3).
Correction: The Hearing Examiner erred in concluding that density
must be determined solely with respect to the boundaries of the former Park
Place II short plat. Thatis not a written requirement of the code, nor an
"interpretation" of it, but instead is something that the Examiner seeks to
write into the code himself. The Examiner goes beyond interpreting the code
in this regard, and does not have the authority to impose his own
modification to the code. As stated above, this preliminary plat application
does not seek to "subvert" density standards. Park Place I and II could have·
been lawfully developed with a total of 10 lots (4 on Park Place I and 6 on
Page 2 of 3
Park Place II) via the initial short plats. In fact, the proposed plat would be
more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning code, which state
that the goal of the R-8 zone is to establish eight units per acre. The
Examiner's decision should be reversed by the City Council as arbitrary,
placing form over substance.
3. SUMMARY OF ACTION REQUESTED: The City Council is requested to grant the
following relief: (Attach explanation, if desired)
X Reverse the decision or recommendation and grant the following relief:
Pursuant to RMC 4-8-110(F)(8), the Examiner's recommendation should be
disregarded, and the CoUncil should issue its own decision approving the
preliminary plat.
Modify the decision or recommend ion as follows:

Subject: Park Place Preliminary Plat application, 2214 Smithers Ave S.,Renton WA.
Dear Development Services Staff:
This letter outlines the application for the Park Place Preliminary Plat at 2214 Smithers
Ave S. Renton W A. The proposal is to subdivide a 277 acre parcel into 2 residential lots.
A foundation for a single family house is now on the site and will remain.
The current zoning of the site and surrounding area is R-8. The current use of the site is
currently vacant but for a foundation for a single family residence which will remain.
The property fronts on S 23rd ST and Smithers Ave S. Access for the new lot will be from
Smithers Ave S. Both Smithers Ave S and S 23rd ST are newly constructed streets as part
of the Park Place Short Plat.
All needed utilities are existing in the. adjacent streets and have been stubbed into the new
lot in anticipation of this application.
The existing parcd is 12,074 square feet in size. One additional lot will be created. The
lots will be more than the minimum of 4500 square feet. The density allowed is between
5 and 8 units per acre. The proposed density is 7.2 units per acre for this application
subdividing the existing lot 1 of the Park Place Short Plat. (See Density Worksheet) The
City staffhas advised that even though this application meets the density regulations of
the City, for subdivision of lot 1, we must look farther and meet the density requirements
for the Park Place Short Plats. We have included two Density Calculations one for only
. lot 1 and another for both of the adjacent Park Place Short Plats. With considering both of
the existing short plats the proposed density is 7.9 units per acre.
We appreciate the city's review and approval of this application for a two lot subdivision.
If you have any questions please contact me' at 360-422-5056.

Approval for a 2-lot subdivision of a 0.28-acre site intended for
detached single-family homes.
Development Services Recommendation: Approve
The Development Services Report was received by the
Examiner on November 30, 2004.
After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining
available information on file with the application, field
checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner
conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows:
MINUTES
Thefollowing minutes are a summary of the December 14,2004 hearing.
The legal record is recorded on CD.
The hearing opened on Tuesday, December 14,2004, at 9:47 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor
of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were entered into the record:

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Susan Fiala, Senior Planner, Development
Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. This site is located in the Talbot Hill
area, north of S 23rd Street and east of Smithers Avenue South. The site is rectangular in shape, it previously
was Lot 1 of Park Place II Short Plat, all properties are zoned R-8 residential single-family as well as a
comprehensive land designation of Residential Single Family.
The underlying short plat is Park Place II, LUA 03-042 which was approved on June 10,2004 and recorded on
September 7, 2004. There is no current structure on the site, on proposed Lot I there is a foundation but no
further construction has been done.
Access to this site is proposed via South 23 rd Street to Lot 1 and Lot 2 would be accessed from an existing
access easement that currently serves Lots 4 and 5 of Park Place II.
The proposed density for the .28-acre site with no deductions would be 7.2 dwelling units per acre. The subject
site was recently short platted for 5 lots. Exhibit 5 illustrates the other short plats, Park Place I is furthest to the
east of this proposed site. It includes four lots on a .48-acre site, the density was 8.3 du/acre which was allowed.
The Park Place II included five lots on the .7-acre site had a density of7.1 du/acre which was permitted under
the R-8 zoning. If the applicant had proposed six lots within this short plat of which Lot 1 is proposed to be
further divided, six lots on the. 7-acre site would have been greater than the permitted density of 8 du/acre, that
density would have been 8.6 du/acre.
Staff is recommending denial as the applicant is attempting to achieve a higher density than what the code
allows by subsequent land use applications.
The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated, including three
mitigation measures. No appeals were filed.
Lots I and 2 equal or exceed the minimum of 4,500 square feet. The smallest lot, Lot 1 is 5,793 square feet,
both lots comply with the lot dimension requirements. The proposal's compliance with these setback standards
will be verified prior to the issuance of individual building permits. It appears that they do comply with the
setback standards.
Each detached dwelling would be required to provide two off-street parking stalls, the building pads appear to
be adequately sized for this provision. Each lot satisfied the minimum lot area and dimension requirements of
the R-8 zone. No additional street improvements are required.
Single family residential surrounds the subject site, the detached single-family homes on these two lots would be
compatible, however, the two additional lots would over densify the existing neighborhood.
A Fire Mitigation Fee was proposed on the plat.
The site is located within the Renton School District and they are able to handle the additional student.
Storm drainage facilities exist in Smithers Avenue South and in South 23 rd Street. The applicant would be
required to tightline to the new storrn conveyance system. Water and sanitary mains exist in South 23rd Street
and Smithers Avenue South. Water stubs are required to be installed to each new lot prior to recording the short
plat.
Staff recommends denial of the park Place Preliminary Plat.

Jim Hanson, Hanson Consulting, 17446 Mallard Cove Lane, Mt. Vernon, WA 98274 stated that they do agree
with the staff report in that the proposed preliminary plat meets all the requirements of the City's subdivision
ordinance and zoning code with the exception of the issue of overall density. There were discussions with the
City of Renton about a way offurther subdividing this property, this particular owner bought the property after
the short plat application and been approved and in the process of being developed.
The density allowed in the R-8 zone is 8 units per net acre and for this size parcel it meets the density at 7.2
dulac. It is not a re-plat, it is a preliminary plat of Lot 1 of the previous short plat.
Regarding the easement, it was intended to serve Lots 4 and 5 for access, shown as new Lot 2 along Smithers
Avenue could access from Smithers Avenue. In many short plats the City has asked applicants not to put in
another driveway, but to use a shared driveway, therefore, it is not really an easement to Lot 2, but a shared
driveway.
Two density calculations were provided, one showing the density for Lot 1 of the short plat that shows the
density requirement being met at 7.2 dulac. Another density calculation for a neighborhood by taking the two
adjacent short plats, which are owned by the same party, Park Place I had a density of9.7, Park Place II had a
density of 8, both of those met density. If you take the neighborhood density by combining the two, they still
meet a density of Jess than 8 dulac. The City's subdivision ordinance, Section 47.080 C states that if there is
land in common ownership then you cannot go through a short plat, but a preliminary plat, but it doesn't say you
need to include the common land.
They believe they meet the zoning standards and sub division standards for this two-lot preliminary plat. The
ERC reviewed the impact of an additional lot and found there was no substantial impact for adding an additional
lot.
Michael P. Witek, 1001 Fourth Avenue, Suite 4200, Seattle, WA 98154 stated that the real question is how
density is calculated. If this proposal is looked at in isolation, it complies with the density requirements. The
project complies with all of the other regulations. It appears that staff is going beyond the subject site and
looking at a broader area, how broad do we look.
The Examiner stated that the only issue is density. It is one of the criteria, all other things aside, if code is not
met then you don't meet code.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:45 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Dave Perry, Heritage Homes, filed a request for a Preliminary Plat.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit # 1.
3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of
Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M).
Park Place Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-04-126, PP, ECF,
January 10, 2005
Page 4
4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
5. The subject site is located at 620 South 23rdStreet.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single-family uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family - 8 dwelling units/acre).
8. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 3316, enacted in May 1979.
9. The applicant proposes dividing a 0.28-acre parcel into two lots. Normally, this type of subdivision,
dividing one lot into two lots, would be a short plat. The fact that the property proposed for division
was itself the result ofa short plat approved within last five (5) years, requires a full Preliminary Plat
under State and City regulations. The shol1 plat was recorded on September 7. 2004 under Recording
Number 20040907900011.
10. RCW 58.17.060 provides that:
Short plats and short subdivisions --Summary approval --Regulations --Requirements.
(1) The legislative body of a city, town, or county shall adopt regulations and procedures, and
. appoint administrative personnel for the summary approval of short plats and short subdivisions
or alteration or vacation thereof. When an alteration or vacation involves a public dedication,
the alteration or vacation shall be processed as provided in RCW or. Such regulations shall be
adopted by ordinance and shall provide that a short plat and short subdivision may be approved
only if written findings that are appropriate, as provided in RCW, are made by the
administrative personnel, and may contain wholly different requirements than those governing
the approval of preliminary and final plats of subdivisions and may require surveys and
monumentations and shall require filing of a short plat, or alteration or vacation thereof, for
record in the office of the county auditor: PROVIDED, That such regulations must contain a
requirement that land in short subdivisions may not be further divided in any manner within a
period of five years without the filing of a final plat, except that when the short plat contains
fewer than four parcels, nothing in this section shall prevent the owner who filed the short plat
from filing an alteration within the five-year period to create up to a total of four lots within the
original short plat boundaries: PROVIDED FURTHER, That such regulations are not required
to contain a penalty clause as provided in RCW and may provide for wholly injunctive relief.
The Renton Municipal Code Section 4-7-070.C.2 provides similar language with the following
requirements:
1. Short Plat Process Applicable to Division into Nine (9) or Less Lots: Any land being
divided into nine (9) or less parcels, lots, tracts, sites, or subdivisions, including
segregations, and which has not been divided in a short subdivision within a period of
five (5) years, shall meet the requirements of this Section.
2. Preliminary Plat Required for Certain Divisions: No application for a short
subdivision shall be approved if the land being divided is held in common ownership
with a contiguous parcel which has been divided in a short subdivision within the
Park Place Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-04-126, PP, ECF,
January 10, 200S
Page 5
preceding five (S) years. Such applications must be processed as preliminary plat, rather
than a short plat.
11. The original ~hort plat subdivided 0.70 acres into five (S) lots. That five-lot short plat had a density of
7.1 dwelling units per acre.
12. Staff noted that if the original short plat had been originally been divided into 6 lots it would have had a
density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre. The R-8 Zone permits lots over O.S acres to have a density which
can range from S to 8 dwelling units per acre. Staff noted that the proposed plat would not meet the
original code requirements for this site.
13. Dividing Lot I's existing 0.28 acres into two lots as proposed would result in a density of7.2 dwelling
units per acre. Staff suggested that because this proposal is considered a Preliminary Plat, it
encompasses the entire original acreage and then reviewed for compliance with density standards.
14. The subject site is generally flat. It was cleared of vegetation under the prior short plat approval.
IS. The two new lots as \vell as the former lots are rectangular and their property lines are generally at right
angles to the street.
16. Access to the interior parcels, Lots 4 and S ofthe original short plat,are via an easement. That
easement would also provide access to Proposed Lot 2 of this new plat to limit the driveways along
Smithers Avenue South. .
17. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately one school age child assigned on a space available basis.
18. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit.
19. There would be little change to the utility needs ofthe one additional lot and subsequent home.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed plat does not serve the public use and interest. ]t subverts the density requirements of the
R-8 Zone and the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan in setting those density guidelines.
2. There is one reason the proposed division of property into two lots has to be reviewed as a Preliminary
Plat and is not considered a short plat. That reason is that the lot proposed for division was itself created
by a short plat recorded within the last five (S) years, actually, within the last 6 months. Since the
triggering act was the division approved on June 10,2004 (File Number LUA-03-042) and recorded on
September 7, 2004 (Recording Number 20040907900011), the only logical way to view this plat is to
look at that most recent division. ]t is that division, the division of 0.7 acres into five discrete separate
lots which governs this review. It is neither appropriate nor reasonable to seek out some other event or
subdivision or ownership question either recent or more distant to determine this proposed subdivision.
The lot now proposed for division was created by the short plat of 0.70 acres. That is the property and
that is the acreage that needs to be considered in this review. Taking that entire 0.70 acres and dividing
it into 6 lots results in a density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre. That violates the density standards of the
R-8 Zone. So while it appears that the proposal presents some unique issues, it merely presents a direct
assault on the density standards enacted by the City Council. It attempts to sidestep the density
standards by initially short platting acreage that would have been insufficient for a six-lot plat into a five
Park Place Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-04-126, PP, ECF,
January 10,2005
Page 6
lot plat and then, shortly thereafter, attempting to re-divide one of those lots in that initially insufficient
parcel. It is an inappropriate request.
3. The Proposed Preliminary Plat should be denied by the City Council since it violates the underlying
density standards of the City's Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council should deny the Preliminary Plat.

The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-on~) communications may occur
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all

Approval for a 2-lot subdivision of a 0.28-acre site intended for
detached single-family homes.
Development Services Recommendation: Approve
The Development Services Report was received by the
Examiner on November 30,2004.
After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining
available information on file with the application, field
checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner
conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows:
MINUTES
Thefollowing minutes are a summary of the December 14,2004 hearing.
The legal record is recorded on CD.
The hearing opened on Tuesday, December 14,2004, at 9:47 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor
of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner.
The following exhibits were entered into the record:

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Susan Fiala, Senior Planner, Development
Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. This site is located in the Talbot Hill
area, north of S 23rd Street and east of Smithers Avenue South. The site is rectangular in shape, it previously
was Lot 1 of Park Place II Short Plat, all properties are zoned R-8 residential single-family as well as a
comprehensive land designation of Residential Single Family.
The underlying short plat is Park Place II, LUA 03-042 which was approved on June 10,2004 and recorded on
September 7, 2004. There is no current structure on the site, on proposed Lot 1 there is a foundation but no
further construction has been done.
Access to this site is proposed via South 23rd Street to Lot I and Lot 2 would be accessed from an existing
access easement that currently serves Lots 4 and 5 of Park Place II.
The proposed density for the .28-acre site with no deductions would be 7.2 dwelling units per acre. The subject
site was recently short platted for 5 lots. Exhibit 5 illustrates the other short plats, Park Place I is furthest to the
east of this proposed site. It includes four lots on a .48-acre site, the density was 8.3 du/acre which was allowed.
The Park Place 11 inc luded five lots on the. 7 -acre site had a density of 7.1 du/acre \Vh ich \Vas permitted under
the R-8 zoning. If the applicant had proposed six lots within this short plat of which Lot 1 is proposed to be
further divided, six lots on the. 7-acre site would have been greater than the permitted density of 8 du/acre, that
density would have been 8.6 du/acre.
Staff is recommending denial as the applicant is attempting to achieve a higher density than what the code
allows by subsequent land use applications.
The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated, including three
mitigation measures. No appeals were filed.
Lots 1 and 2 equal or exceed the minimum of 4,500 square feet. The smallest lot, Lot 1 is 5,793 square feet,
both lots comply with the lot dimension requirements. The proposal's compliance with these setback standards
will be verified prior to the issuance of individual building permits. It appears that they do comply with the
setback standards.
Each detached dwelling would be required to provide two off-street parking stalls, the building pads appear to
be adequately sized for this provision. Each lot satisfied the millimum lot area and dimension requirements of
the R-8 zone. No additional street improvements are required.
Single family residential surrounds the subject site, the detached single-family homes on these two lots would be
compatible, however, the two additional lots would over densify the existing neighborhood.
A Fire Mitigation Fee was proposed on the plat.
The site is located within the Renton School District and they are able to handle the additional student.
Storm drainage facilities exist in Smithers Avenue South and in South 23 rd Street. The applicant would be
required to tightline to the new storm conveyance system. Water and sanitary mains exist in South 23rd Street
and Smithers Avenue South. Water stubs are required to be installed to each new lot prior to recording the short
plat.
Staff recommends denial of the park Place Preliminary Plat.

Jim Hanson, Hanson Consulting, 17446 Mallard Cove Lane, Mt. Vernon, WA 98274 stated that they do agree
with the staff report in that the proposed preliminary plat meets all the requirements of the City's subdivision
ordinance and zoning code with the exception of the issue of overall density. There were discussions with the
City of Renton about a way offurther subdividing this property, this particular owner bought the property after
the short plat application and been approved and in the process of being developed.
The density allowed in the R-8 zone is 8 units per net acre and for this size parcel it meets the density at 7.2
dulac. It is not a re-plat, it is a preliminary plat of Lot 1 of the previous short plat.
Regarding the easement, it was intended to serve Lots 4 and 5 for access, shown as new Lot 2 along Smithers
Avenue could access from Smithers Avenue. In many short plats the City has asked applicants not to put in
another driveway, but to use a shared driveway, therefore, it is not really an easement to Lot 2, but a shared
driveway.
Two density calculations were provided, one showing the density for Lot 1 of the short plat that shows the
density requirement being met at 7.2 dulac. Another density calculation for a neighborhood by taking the two
adjacent short plats, which are owned by the same party, Park Place I had a density of9.7, Park Place II had a
density of 8, both of those met density. If you take the neighborhood density by combining the two, they still
meet a density of less than 8 dulac. The City's subdivision ordinance, Section 47.080 C states that ifthere is
land in common ownership then you cannot go through a short plat, but a preliminary plat, but it doesn't say you
need to include the common land.
They believe they meet the zoning standards and sub division standards for this two-lot preliminary plat. The
ERC reviewed the impact of an additional lot and found there was no substantial impact for adding an additional
lot.
Michael P. Witek, 1001 Fourth Avenue, Suite 4200, Seattle, WA 98154 stated that the real question is how
density is calculated. If this proposal is looked at in isolation, it complies with the density requirements. The
project complies with all of the other regulations. It appears that staff is going beyond the subject site and
looking at a broader area, how broad do we look.
The Examiner stated that the only issue is density. It is one ofthe criteria, all other things aside, if code is not
met then you don't meet code.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:45 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant, Dave Perry, Heritage Homes, filed a request for a Preliminary Plat.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit #1.
3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of
Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M).
Park Place Preliminary Plat

4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
5. The subject site is located at 620 South 23rd Street.
6. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single-family uses, but does not mandate such development without
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
7. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family -8 dwelling ,units/acre).
8. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 3316, enacted in May 1979.
9. The applicant proposes dividing a 0.28-acre parcel into two lots. Normally, this type of subdivision,
dividing one lot into two lots, would be a shol1 plat. The fact that the property proposed for division
was itself the result of a short plat approved within last five (5) years, requires a full Preliminary Plat
under State and City regulations. The short plat was recorded on September 7, 2004 under Recording
Number 20040907900011.
10. RCW 58.17.060 provides that:
Short plats and short subdivisions --Summary approval --Regulations --Requirements.
(1) The legislative body of a city, town, or county shall adopt regulations and procedures, and
appoint administrative personnel for the summary approval of short plats and short subdivisions
or alteration or vacation thereof. When an alteration or vacation involves a public dedication,
the alteration or vacation shall be processed as provided in RCW or. Such regulations shall be
adopted by ordinance and shall provide that a short plat and short subdivision may be approved
only if written findings that are appropriate, as provided in RCW, are made by the
administrative personnel, and may contain wholly different requirements than those governing
the approval of preliminary and final plats of subdivisions and may require surveys and
monumentations and shall require filing of a short plat, or alteration or vacation thereof, for
record in the office of the county auditor: PROVIDED, That such regulations must contain a
requirement that land in short subdivisions may not be further divided in any manner within a
period of five years without the filing of a final plat, except that when the short plat contains
fewer than four parcels, nothing in this section shall prevent the owner who filed the short plat
from filing an alteration within the five-year period to create up to a total of four lots within the
original short plat boundaries: PROVIDED FURTHER, That such regulations are not required
to contain a penalty clause as provided in RCW and may provide for wholly injunctive relief.
The Renton Municipal Code Section 4-7-070.C.2 provides similar language with the following
requirements:
1. Short Plat Process Applicable to Division into Nine (9) or Less Lots: Any land being
divided into nine (9) or less parcels, lots, tracts, sites, or subdivisions, including
segregations, and which has not been divided in a short subdivision within a period of
five (5) years, shall meet the requirements ofthis Section.
2. Preliminary Plat Required for Certain Divisions: No application for a short
subdivision shall be approved if the land being divided is held in common ownership
with a contiguous parcel which has been divided in a short subdivision within the
"; .

preceding five (5) years. Such applications must be processed as preliminary plat, rather
than a short plat.
11. The original short plat subdivided 0.70 acres into five (5) lots. That five-lot short plat had a,density of
7.1 dwelling units per acre.
12. Staff noted that if the original short plat had been originally been divided into 6 lots it would have had a
density of 8.6 dwelling units per acre. The R-8 Zone permits lots over 0.5 acres to have a density which
can range from 5 to 8 dwelling units per acre. Staff noted that the proposed plat would not meet the
original code requirements for this site.
13. Dividing Lot l's existing 0.28 acres into two lots as proposed would result in a density of7.2 dwelling
units per acre. Staff suggested that because this proposal is considered a Preliminary Plat, it
encompasses the entire original acreage and then reviewed for compliance with density standards.
14. The subject site is generally flat. It was cleared of vegetation under the prior short plat approval.
15. The two new lots as \vell as the former lots are rectangular and their property lines are generally at right
angles to the street.
16. Access to the interior parcels, Lots 4 and 5 of the original short plat,.are via an easement. That
easement would also provide access to Proposed Lot 2 of this new plat to limit the driveways along
Smithers Avenue South.
17. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately one school age child assigned on a space available basis.
18. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit.
19. There would be little change to the utility needs of the one additional lot and subsequent home.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed plat does not serve the public use and interest. It subverts the density requirements of the
R-8 Zone and the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan in setting those density guidelines.
2. There is one reason the proposed division of property into two lots has to be reviewed as a Preliminary
Plat and is not considered a short plat. That reason is that the lot proposed for division was itself created
by a short plat recorded within the last five (5) years, actually, within the last 6 months. Since the
triggering act was the division approved on June 10,2004 (File Number LUA-03-042) and recorded on
September 7, 2004 (Recording Number 20040907900011), the only logical way to view this plat is to
look at that most recent division. It is that division, the division of 0.7 acres into five discrete separate
lots which governs this review. It is neither appropriate nor reasonable to seek out some other event or
subdivision or ownership question either recent or more distant to determine this proposed subdivision.
The lot now proposed for division was created by the short plat of 0.70 acres. That is the property and
that is the acreage that needs to be considered in this review. Taking that entire 0.70 acres and dividing
it into 6 lots results in a density of8.6 dwelling units per acre. That violates the density standards of the
R-8 Zone. So while it appears that the proposal presents some unique issues, it merely presents a direct
assault on the density standards enacted by the City Council. It attempts to sidestep the density
standards by initially short platting acreage that would have been insufficient for a six-lot plat into a five
Park Place Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-04-126, PP, ECF,
January 10, 2005
Page 6
lot plat and then, shortly thereafter, attempting to re-divide one of those lots in that initially insufficient
parcel. It is an inappropriate request.
3. The Proposed Preliminary Plat should be denied by the City Council since it violates the underlying
density standards of the City's Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council should deny the Preliminary Plat.

The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-on~) communications may occur
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.
All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the
evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as
Appeals to the City Council.

The applicant is requesting Hearing Examiner Preliminary Plat approval for a two lot
subdivision of a 0.28 acre site. The request is for a preliminary plat as code does not allow a
short plat to be further subdivided for a period of 5 years without following the procedures for
subdivision. The site is located within the Residential - 8 (R-8) zoning designation with a
density of 7.2 dulac. Proposed lot sizes would be Lot 1 at 5,793 sq. ft. and Lot 2 at 6,280 sq.

G. DEPARTMENT ANAL YSIS:
1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND
The applicant is proposing to further subdivide existing Lot 1 of the Park Place 2 Short Plat which
was approved on June 10, 2004 (LUA 03-042, SHPL-H, ECF) and the final short plat was
recorded on September 7, 2004 (#20040907900011). A building foundation was started on Lot 1
but the structure has not been completed, to date. No other structures or outbuildings exist.
Access to Lot 1 is proposed directly to South 23rd St. and new Lot 2 would be accessed via an
existing joint use driveway that currently serves Lots 4 and 5 of the abutting Park Place Short
Plat.
The site is zoned Residential - 8 (R-8) dwelling units per acre. The R-8 zone allows residential
densities that range from a minimum of 5.0 dulac to a maximum of 8.0 dulac. The subdivision of
existing Lot 1 into two lots would arrive at a net density of 7.2 dulac. The Comprehensive Plan
designates the site as Residential Single Family (RSF).
However, the subject site was recently short platted for five lots. The inclusion of one additional
lot in the original short plat (Park Place 2) would increase the density to be greater than that
permitted for lots greater than one-half acre. Six lots on the 0.70 acre site would be a density of
8.6 dulac which would not have been permitted under the original short plat. The applicant has
submitted the subdivision as a Preliminary Plat. Staff is recommending denial of the preliminary
plat.
2. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and SEPA (RCW 43.21 C, 1971 as
amended), on November 16, 2004, the Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination
of Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M) for the Park Place Preliminary Plat. The DNS-M included

three (3) mitigation measures. A 14-day appeal period commenced on November 22, 2004 and
ended on December 6, 2004. No appeals were filed.
3. COMPLIANCE WITH ERC MITIGATION MEASURES
Based on an analysis of the probable impacts from the proposal, the Environmental Review
Committee (ERC) issued the following mitigation measures with the Determination of Non-
Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M):
1. The project shall be required to be designed and comply with the Department of Ecology's
(DOE) Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements, outlined in Volume /I of the 2001
Stormwater Management Manual.
2. The applicant shall pay the appropriate Fire Mitigation Fee based on a rate of $488.00 per
new single-family lot. The fee shall be paid prior to the recording of the final plat.
3. The applicant shall pay the appropriate Traffic Mitigation Fee based on $75.00 per each new
average daily trip associated with the project. The fee shall be paid prior to the recording of
the final plat.
4. STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS
Representatives from various city departments have reviewed the application materials to identify
and address site plan issues from the proposed development. These comments are contained in
the official file, and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate
sections of this report and the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report.
5. CONSISTENCY WITH PRELIMINARY PLAT CRITERIA:
Approval of a plat is based upon several factors. The following preliminary plat criteria have been
established to assist decision makers in the review of the subdivision:
(a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Designation. The subject site is deSignated
Residential Single Family (RSF) on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. The objective
established by the RSF deSignation is to protect and enhance single family neighborhoods. The
proposal is consistent with the RSF designation in that it would provide for the future construction
of single family homes and would promote goals of infill development. The proposed plat is
consistent with the following Residential Single Family policies:
Land Use Element
Residential Single Family
Policy LU-34. Net development densities should fall within a range of 5 to 8 dwelling units per
acre in Residential Single Family neighborhoods. The proposed plat has a net density of 7.2
dulacre which is within the allowable density range. However, the subject site was recently
included as part of a five lot short plat. The inclusion of one additional lot in the original short plat
would have increased the denSity to be greater than that permitted for lots greater than one-half
acre. Six lots on the 0.70 acre site would be a density of 8.6 dulac which would not have been
permitted under the original short plat (Park Place 2).
Policy LU-35. A minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet should be allowed in single family
residential neighborhoods except when flexible development standards are used for project
review. Lots 1 and 2 equal or exceed the minimum of 4,500 square feet. The smallest lot, Lot 1 is
5,793 square feet and the largest lot, Lot 2, is 6,280 square feet
Housing Element
The proposal should be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Housing Element.

PARK PLACE PRELIMINARY PLA T
PUBLIC HEARING DATE: December 14,2004
Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA-04-126, ECF, PP
Page 50f7
Policy H-4. Encourage infill development as a means to increase capacity. The proposed
project would meet this objective by placing two new single family homes on an underutilized
property. However, this site was recently short platted which would have already added one
house to the neighborhood. The addition of another home would increase the density in the
neighborhood.
(b) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation. The 0.28-acre site is designated
Residential - 8 Dwelling Units per Acre (R-8) on the City of Renton Zoning Map. The proposed
development would allow for the future construction of up to two new dwelling units. A foundation
was constructed on new Lot 1 but has not been further constructed upon.
Density -The allowed density range in the R-8 zone is a minimum of 5.0 to a maximum of 8.0
dwelling units per acre (dulac) for lots exceeding 0.50-acre in size. The site is less than 0.50
acres and is vested under the code effective at the time of complete application which permits
density up to 9.7 dulac for sites less than 0.50 acres. Net density is calculated after public rights-
of-way, private streets serving more than three lots, and critical areas are deducted from the
gross acreage of the site.
There are no deductions from the gross area of the site. The 12,074 sq. ft. site 10.28 acres would
arrive at a net density of 7.2 dwelling units per acre (2 units I 0.28 acres = 7.2 dulac). The
proposed plat appears to comply with density requirements for the R-8 zoning designation if the
site is reviewed in isolation.
However, this subject parcel was part of the recent short plat approval, Park Place 2 Short Plat,
with final recordation in September of 2004. The applicant is now requesting further subdivision of
Lot 1 of the Park Place 2 Short Plat, into two lots. This additional lot would not have been
permitted in the original short plat of the site as that short plat would have been over dense with
six'iots on a 0.70 acre site. The net density for the six lot subdivision would have been 8.6 dulac
which is above the permitted density in the R-8 zone.
Please refer to Exhibit 5 which identifies Park Place 2 Short Plat (LUA03-042) including five lots
(subject sitelLot 1 is shown) and Park Place 1 Short Plat (LUA 01-075) consisting of four lots
which is further to the east of the subject Preliminary Plat.
The applicant's recent submittal for this additional subdivision via preliminary plat processing
overdensifies the neighborhood as this would not have been permitted in the first short plat. The
application for additional subdivision appears to be an attempt to achieve a higher density than
what the code allows. The applicant contends that the preliminary plat process is per code.
However, it is not the intent of this preliminary platting of a short plat to achieve a higher density
for the same property that could not be achieved previously. Based on these reasons, staff
recommends denial of the preliminary plat.
Lot Dimensions -The minimum lot width required is 50 feet for interior lots and 60 feet for corner
lots and a lot depth of 65 feet. Lot widths for both lots would be 65 feet and lot depths are
proposed from 89 to 96 feet. Lots 1 and 2 equal or exceed the minimum of 4,500 square feet. The
smallest lot, Lot 1 is 5,793 square feet and the largest lot, Lot 2, would be 6,280 square feet. Both
lots comply with the lot dimension requirements.
Setbacks -The plat plan includes setback lines for each lot showing potential building envelopes
within the R-8 zoned parcels. Building setbacks as required by the R-8 zone, including front and
rear yard setbacks of 20 feet, corner side yard setback of 15 feet and interior side yard setbacks
of 5 feet. The proposal's compliance with these setback standards will be verified prior to the
issuance of individual building permits.
Building Standards -The R-8 zone permits one single family reSidential structure per lot. Each of
the proposed lots would support the construction of one detached unit. Accessory structures are
permitted at a maximum number of two per lot at 720 square feet each, or one per lot at 1,000
square feet in size. Accessory structures are permitted only when associated with a primary
structure located on the same parcel.

Page 60f7
Building height in the R-8 zone is limited to two stories and 30 feet for primary structures and 15
feet for detached accessory structures. The R-8 zone restricts lots greater than 5,000 square feet
in size with a maximum building coverage of 35% or 2,500 square feet, whichever is greater. The
proposal's compliance with these building standards would be verified prior to the issuance of
individual building permits.
Parking -Each detached dwelling unit is required to provide two off-street parking stalls per unit.
The proposed building pads appear to be adequately sized for the provision of the required
parking.
(c) Compliance with Subdivision Regulations.
Lot Arrangement: Side lot lines are to be at right angles to street lines, and each lot must have
access to a public street or road. Access may be by private access easement per the
requirements of the Street Improvement Ordinance.
The side lot lines of the proposed lots are at right angles to street lines. All lots would gain
access to public roadways either directly, or via private access easements. As proposed, . lots
comply with arrangement and access requirements of the Subdivision Regulations.
Lots: The size, shape and orientation of lots shall meet the minimum area and width
requirements of the applicable zoning classification and shall be appropriate for the type of
development and use contemplated.
Each of the proposed lots satisfies the minimum lot area and dimension requirements of the R-8
zone. The plat plan does include setback lines for each lot showing potential building envelopes
and when considering the required setbacks, as well as access pOints for each lot, the proposed
lots appear to have sufficient building area for the development of detached single family homes.
Property Corners at Intersections: All lot corners at intersections of dedicated public rights-of-
way, except alleys, shall have minimum radius of 15 feet.
The proposed subdivision does not create any new at the intersection of public rights-of-way. The
radius of Lot 1 exists and is 15 ft. which complies with this requirement.
(d) Reasonableness of Proposed Boundaries /
Access and Street Improvements: Access to the site is proposed via a two existing public right-of-
ways, Smithers Avenue South (on the west) and South 23rd Street (to the south). Lot 1 could be
accessed from either public street. Lot 2 is proposed to accessed from an existing 20 foot private
access easement extending east from Smithers Avenue South. New sidewalk, curb and gutter
are in place along both street frontages. No additional street improvements are required.
Topographv: The subject site is generally flat. All vegetation was previously removed as part of
the Park Place Short Plat which this site was Lot 1. There are no trees on the site. The export or
import of fill material is not antiCipated for site improvements.
Relationship to Existing Uses: Single family residential surrounds the subject site. The proposed
detached single family homes on two lots would be compatible with the surrounding development;
however, as stated in the section on Density, the additional two lots would over densify the
existing neighborhood.
(e) Availability and Impact on Public Services (Timeliness)
Police and Fire: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicate that sufficient resources exist to furnish
services to the proposed development, subject to the applicant's provision of Code required
improvements and fees. The Environmental Review Committee imposed a Fire Mitigation Fee in
order to mitigate the project's potential impacts to emergency services.
Recreation: A Parks Mitigation Fee was not required as the proposal is less than four dwelling
units. There are existing recreational facilities in the area of the subject property (Le., Thomas
Teasdale Park and Liberty Park).

Page 70f7
Schools: The site is located within the boundaries of the Renton School District No. 403. Based
on the student generation factor, the proposed plat would potentially result in one additional
student (0.44 x 2 = 0.88 rounded to 1). The schools would include: Talbot Hill Elementary,
Dimmitt Middle School and Renton High School.
Storm Drainage/Surface Water: Storm drainage facilities exist in Smithers Ave. South and in S.
23rd Street. Applicant is required to tightline roof downspouts to the new storm conveyance
system. The Surface Water System Development Charge (SDC) is $900.00 for the new single-
family lot. This is payable at the time the utility permit is issued.
Water and Sanitary Sewer Utilities: There is an existing 8-inch water main in South 23rd Street
and an 8-inch water main in Smithers Avenue South. Water service stubs are required to be
installed to each new lot prior to recording the short plat. The Water System Development
Charge is $1,525.00 per new lot and is payable at the time the utility permit is issued.
There is an existing 8-inch sewer main in Smithers Ave. South and an extension of a new 8-inch
sewer main is in an easement along the north property line. All new plats must provide separate
side sewer stubs to each building 10Unew parcel. A Sanitary Sewer System Development Charge
(SDC) is required at the rate of $900.00 per new single family residence. This charge is payable
at the time the utility permit is issued.
H. RECOMMENDA TION:
Staff recommends denial of the Park Place Preliminary Plat, Project File No. LUA-04-126, ECF, PP.
EXPIRATION PERIODS:
Preliminary Plats (PP): Five (5) years from final approval (signature) date.

PARK PLACE PRELIMINARY PLAT
REPORT OF NOVEMBER 16. 2004
En vir 'ental Review Committee Staff Report
LUA-04-126, ECF, PP
Page 2 of4
Project description continued: The applicant is proposing to further subdivide existing Lot 1 of the Park Place Short
Plat (LUA 03-042) which was approved on June 10,2004 and the final short plat was recorded on September 7,2004
(#20040907900011). A building foundation was started on Lot 1 but the structure has not been completed, to date. No
other structures or outbuildings exist. The proposal is for the eventual construction of two detached single-family
residences.
Access to Lot 1 is proposed directly to South 23rd St. and new Lot 2 would be accessed via an existing joint use
driveway that already serves Lots 4 and 5 of the abutting Park Place Short Plat.
The site is zoned Residential - 8 (R-8) dwelling units per acre. The R-8 zone allows residential densities that range
from a minimum of 5.0 dulac to a maximum of 8.0 dulac. The subdivision of existing Lot 1 into two lots would arrive at
a net density of 7.2 dulac. However, the subject site was recently short platted for five lots. The inclusion of one
additional lot in the original short plat would increase the density to be greater than that permitted for lots greater than
one-half acre. Six lots on the 0.70-acre site would be a density of 8.6 dulac which would not have been permitted
under the original short plat. The applicant has submitted the subdivision as a Preliminary Plat. Therefore, as part of
the staff report to the Hearing Examiner, staff proposes to recommend denial of the application.
B. RECOMMENDATION
Based on analysis of probable impacts from the proposal, staff recommends that the Responsible Officials
make the following Environmental Determination:

D. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
In compliance with RCW 43.21 C. 240, the following project environmental review addresses only those
project impacts that are not adequately addressed under existing development standards and environmental
regulations.
1. Earth
Impacts: The site is located on a relatively flat site with slopes no greater than two percent. The property is
predominantly grass. There are no trees on the site.
The subject site is designated on the City's Sensitive Areas Map as containing coal mine hazards. From the recent
short plat of the site, Park Place Short Plat (LUA 03-042), the coal mine assessment submitted with that project
concluded that the abandoned Sunbeam Mine is to the south of the site and does not underlie the parcel.
According the Environmental (SEPA) Checklist, the estimated quantity of grading is estimated at 210 cubic yards of
earth and be associated with the construction and preparation of the private driveway and building pads. The
applicant stated, in the SEPA checklist, that temporary erosion/sedimentation control would be utilized during
construction to intercept all potential silt laden runoff and the control would remain in place until the groundcover is re-
established and erosion potential is reduced.
In order to reduce the potential for erosion and control sedimentation to the site and to adjacent properties, staff
recommends additional mitigation including that the project be designed and comply with the Department of Ecology's

Mitigation Measures: The project shall be required to be designed and comply with the Department of Ecology's
(DOE) Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements, outlined in Volume II of the 2001 Stormwater Management
Manual.
Policy Nexus: SEPA Environmental Regulations.
2. . Surface Water
Impacts: Storm drainage facilities exist in Smithers Ave. South and in S. 23rd Street. A conceptual drainage plan and
drainage narrative has been submitted. Applicant is required to tightline roof downspouts to the new storm
conveyance system. This shall be shown on the construction plans. The Surface Water System Development Charge
(SOC) is $900.00 for the new single-family lot. This is payable at the time the utility permit is issued.
Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is recommended.
Policy Nexus: N/A
3. Fire Protection
Impacts: Fire Prevention staff indicates that the applicant provide required improvements and fees to offset the
impacts associated with the new development. The proposal to add one new residential lot to the City would impact
the City's Fire Emergency Services. Therefore, a Fire Mitigation Fee of $488.00 per new single-family lot is required.
The fee is estimated at $488.00 (1 new lot x $488.00 = $488.00) and is required prior to the recording of the final plat.
Mitigation Measures: The applicant shall pay the appropriate Fire Mitigation Fee based on a rate of $488.00 per new
single-family lot. The fee shall be paid prior to the recording of the final plat.
Policy Nexus: SEPA Environmental Regulations; Fire Mitigation Fee Resolution No. 2913, Ordinance 4527.
4. AccessfTransportation
Impacts: The proposal would result in an increase in traffic trips to the City's street system; therefore, the appropriate
Traffic Mitigation Fee will be imposed. The Traffic Mitigation Fee is calculated at a rate of $75.00 per additional
generated trip per new single-family lot at a rate of 9.57 trips per lot. For the proposal, the Traffic Mitigation Fee is
estimated at $717.75 (1 new lot x 9.57 trips x $75 per trip = $717.75). The fee is payable prior to the recording of the
final plat.
Mitigation Measures: The applicant shall pay the appropriate Traffic Mitigation Fee based on $75.00 per each new
average daily trip associated with the project. The fee shall be paid prior to the recording of the final plat.
Policy Nexus: SEPA Environmental Regulations; Transportation Mitigation Fee Resolution No. 3100, Ordinance 4527.
E. COMMENTS OF REVIEWING DEPARTMENTS
The proposal has been circulated to City Departmental/Divisional Reviewers for their review. Where
applicable, these comments have been incorporated into the text of this report as Mitigation Measures and/or
Notes to Applicant.
-L Copies of all Review Comments are contained in the Official File.
Copies of all Review Comments are attached to this report.

Subject: Park Place Preliminary Plat application, 2214 Smithers Ave S., Renton W A.
Dear Development Services Staff:
This letter outlines the application for the Park Place Preliminary Plat at 2214 Smithers
Ave S. Renton WA. The proposal is to subdivide a 277 acre parcel into 2 residential lots.
A foundation for a single family house is now on the site and will remain.
The current zoning of the site and surrounding area is R-8. The current use of the site is
currently vacant but for a foundation for a single family residence which will remain.
The property fronts on S 23rd ST and Smithers Ave S. Access for the new lot will be from
Smithers Ave S. Both Smithers Ave S and.S 23 rd ST are newly constructed streets as part
of the Park Place Short Plat.
All needed utilities are existing in the adjacent streets and have been stubbed into the new
lot in anticipation of this application.
The existing parcel is 12,074 square feet in size. One additional lot will be created. The
lots will be more than the minimum of 4500 square feet. The density allowed is between
5 and 8 units per acre. The proposed density is 7.2 units per acre for this application
subdividing the existing lot 1 of the Park Place Short Plat. (See Density Worksheet) The
City staffhas advised t:p.at even though this application meets the density regulations of
the City for subdivision of lot 1, we must look farther and meet the· density requirements
for the Park Place Short Plats. We have included two Density Calculations one for only
lot 1 and another for both of the adjacent Park Place Short Plats. With considering both of
the existing short plats the proposed density is 7.9 units per acre.
We appreciate the city's review and approval of this application for a two lot subdivision.
If you have any questions please contact me at 360-422-5056.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIVISION RECEIVEJ
ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
City of Renton Development Services Division
1055 South Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055
Phone: 425-430-7200 Fax: 425-430-7231
PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST:
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21 C RCW, requires all governmental agencies to
consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the
quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the
agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be
done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS:
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal.
Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most
precise information known, or give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases,
you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need
to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal,
write "do not know" or "does not apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary
delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark
designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the govemmental agencies can
assist you. .
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of
time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal
or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your
answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant
adverse impact.
USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NONPROJECT PROPOSALS:
Complete this checklist for non project proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not
apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D).
For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans and programs), the references in the
checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal,"
"proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.
