Leland and Joanne Gregory

Renton, WA 98058
We own the single family residence directly south of the Elliott Farms Plat on the
Southeast corner of the plat. Access to our property is a private road over property
owned by the Pioneer Homes HOA on which we there are recorded easements for our
use.
Our request is based on the following item.
1. SR— 169 ENTRANCE TO ELLIOTT FARMS
We have attached Exhibit 24 from the original hearing documents which is a letter from
the City of Renton regarding the Spacing Deviation Determination for the access to WA
— 169 with areas highlighted by us. We have also attached the Final Approved
Channelization Plan which is Exhibit 38 from the documents.
The City states that the spacing does not meet minimum standards of 330 feet of
spacing between other connections and apparently approves the plan because there is
no feasible alternative because of proposed elevation grades.
In looking at the Preliminary On Site Grading and Drainage Plan dated 2-11-15, which is
Exhibit 6 from the documents, the elevations at the approved location are no different
that the elevations shown at Alley 2 or Alley 3, so our question are:
1. How can this be used as the basis for accepting the design when there are no
differences in the elevations all along the property line adjacent to SR— 169?
2. Why can't the access to 1 fi9 be placed at Aliey 2 ar Aiiey 3 so that the 330 foot
spacing minimum standard is adhered ta?
3. What does the collision rate at the Moiasses Creek access have to do with the
apprc�val of the design?
The acceptance of this new plan forces us to exit only to the right from aur existing road
on to 169, and go down and turn araund somewhere down the road if we wish to travei
west on SR— 169, The new left turn anly lane in#a Eliiott Farm when approaehing fram
the east will no#allow us to cross ta 169.
The new entrance is only 9�feet from our driveway, not the 133 ft. noted in Exhibit 24.
When we approach from #he West to tum into our property now, we usually turn intQ the
shoulder apprpximately 120 ft. befare our entrance to avoid the tra�c that usua!!y is
travelling at 50MPM. This may not be legal but it seems ta make sense to get out of the
traff}c rather than slow the traffic down at this poin#. This shoulder will now be reduced
ta 5 ft. wide with the new canstruction.
We are now going #o have #o put on our blinker after passing the proposed EIliott Farm
entrance, slow down ir� the 90 ft. space, check to make sure no or�e is exiting in #he right
turn only lane only fram Elliott Farms and turn into our driveway. There is r�o longer a
shoulder available to exit inta. We think that this has the poten#iai of creating a real
clus#er in a shart dis#ance an this stretch ofi 169. We hape that this area will have an
accident rate of .0 in a 3 year period.
Moving the entrance to the West may not be preferable to the Elliott Farrn owners but
we feel this should be reexamined, because the anly criteria for the arig'rnal placement
of this was because af an elevatian issue whrch simply daes not exist. The proposed
exit road should be reduced in width so that Ailey 2 ar Alley 3 can be increased to meet
#he Ci#y Road des'rgn criteria.
Thank you.
