Plan Study Area Moratorium public hearing date of May 16, 2005, and establishing a termination date for the
moratorium of November 2,2005. MOVED BY LAW, SECONDED BY
PALMER, COUNCIL ADOPT THE RESOLUTION AS READ.*
Acknowledging that development in the Highlands was discussed during the
Council Retreat, Councilman Clawson expressed his concern about the
imposition of the moratorium and questioned the urgency and need for the
action.
Pointing out that Highlands community residents have expressed the need for
improvements in the area, Councilman Persson indicated that the area's current
zoning is not of a level to encourage quality infill development. He stated his
support for the moratorium.
Councilman Clawson inquired as to the number of proposed developments in
the Highlands area nearing the permitting process. Economic Development
Administrator Alex Pietsch stated that three pre-applications have been
submitted within the past two months. He explained that the City needs time to
develop new standards that reflect the City's vision for the area, which includes
allowing higher densities to stimulate a larger redevelopment effort, and that
subdividing lots at lower densities is inconsistent with that vision.
Responding to Councilman Clawson's request, City Clerk Bonnie Walton
reviewed the methods of notification for public hearings. Mr. Clawson
emphasized the importance of infoiming people of the reasons why the City is
suspending development in the Highlands area.
*MOTION CARRIED.

School District: Activities activities, including: scholarship winners; the upcoming performance of the

Dear Renton School District Family,
The Renton School Board recently voted to enact boundary changes that affect your family. As part of an effort
to balance school populations, students who live in the Liberty Ridge and Monterey Terrace developments will
now attend Thomson Early Childhood Center, Bryn Mawr Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School or
Renton High School. Students in the elementary Discovery Program will attend Talbot Hill Elementary.
Depending on your students' grade level(s), they may move to a new school in the fall of 2005:
• Students currently attending Hazen High School, except those who will be seniors next school
year, will move to Renton High School. All incoming 9a'graders will be assigned to Renton
High School. Transportation of students allowed to remain at Hazen will not be provided.
• Students currently attending McKnight Middle School,except those who will be in eighth
grade next school year, will move to Dimmitt Middle School. All incoming 6th graders will be
assigned to Dimmitt Middle School. Transportation will only be provided to students attending
Dimmitt Middle School.
• All elementary school students,except for those who will be in fifth grade next school year,
will attend Bryn Mawr Elementary School. Kindergartners will attend Thomson Early
Childhood Center.Transportation will only be provided to students attending Bryn Mawr and
Thomson.
• Student records will automatically be transferred to the new school.
• Siblings of students remaining under the provisions listed above will be assigned to the new
resident school.
Parents of elementary school students are encouraged to attend a personal welcome meeting hosted by Bryn
Mawr Elementary School principal Dr. Susan Mather on Tuesday,May 10 at 6:30 p.m. Dr. Mather will present
the school's focus and curriculum, answer questions,and offer a tour of the school. A general open house for
all Bryn Mawr parents, both current and prospective,is scheduled for Thursday, May 19 at 6:30 p.m.
Parents of middle and high school students are encouraged to contact Dimmitt Middle School Principal
Kathleen Heaton-Bailey at 425.204.2800 and Renton High School Principal Kathryn Hutchinson at
425.204.3400 for a conversation about the schools' instructional programs. Open houses and school tours at
both schools will be scheduled soon.
These boundary changes were developed in order to achieve more efficient use of existing schools and resources
to immediately relieve overcrowding at some schools.For instance,a school with 450 elementary students
instead of 600 will be able to offer students more access to a computer lab, library services, and counselors.
Last year, the School Board directed two conunittees, made up of mostly parents and community members, to
formulate ideas for adjustments to current school boundaries in order to ease overcrowding at schools in the
north and east of the district. Initial recommendations for boundary adjustments were presented by the
Boundary Review Task Force to parents and community members at three community forums in November in
order to receive broad input. In total, more than 500 people attended those forums. Both committees submitted
recommendations to the Board of Directors; final consideration and action occurred on April 6, 2005.
Since boundary changes are being implemented mostly to ease overcrowding at some schools,requests for
transfers to other district schools will be limited by space and program availability.
• At the middle and high school levels,Intra-District Transfer requests can be submitted. Forms
are available at schools or by calling the district's Secondary Education Department at
425.204.2397. Decisions on Intra-District Transfers are based on space and program
availability. Transportation is not provided for students granted an Intra-District Transfer.
• At the elementary school level, Intra-District Transfer requests can be submitted,but the
decision to approve or deny the request cannot be made until after school starts in the fall.
Students must first enroll in their newly assigned school (Thomson or Bryn Mawr). Decisions
on Intra-District Transfers are based on space and program availability and the date of request.
Transportation is not provided for students granted an Intra-District Transfer.
These kinds of changes can be difficult and challenging for students and families,particularly for those who
have become familiar with and have established enduring relationships with staff at their current schools.
However, these decisions will produce improved educational opportunities for students across the district and
are an important responsibility of the Board and the administration. Let's work together to make this transition
as smooth as possible in support of our students. If you have questions about the transition,please contact the
District's Community Relations Office at 425.204.2345.
Sincerely,
Dolores Gibs ins

Julie,
Attached is a letter that is being received by parents of Renton School District students who live in Liberty
Ridge and Monterey Terrace developments explaining the School Board's decision to assign those
developments to Bryn Mawr Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School and Renton High School.
Some parents are now sending e-mails or calling the district stating their intent to move out of the district
(and out of Renton) because of the boundary changes.
I just thought you, the Mayor and the City Council should know the contents of the letter in case there are
questions/concerns directed to the City.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City of Renton Board of Park Commissioners approved amending the current park rules and
regulations to address concerns voiced from the public, the Piazza Group and food vendors
concerning the presence of pets at the Farmers Market resulting in several negative experiences
involving safety of patrons and health concerns regarding animals around food. The Board of
Park Commissioners voted to amend Section 11 to include"that domestic animals, except for
service animals, can be restricted from specific events held at parks, upon request and subsequent
approval of the Park Board."
A second change would be to amend Section 11 to extend the requirement that all domestic
animals in parks be on a leash(to include service animals).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Council approve the Park Board and staff recommendation to amend the Park Rules and
Regulations, Criminal Violations, Section 11, regarding domestic animals in City parks.

DATE: April 11, 2005
Nr.r
Issue:
Should Council approve an amendment to Park Rules and Regulations that amends the
current parks rules and regulations to a)restrict the presence of domestic animals, except
service animals, at specific events held in parks upon request and subsequent approval of
the Park Board and b) add the words"including service animals"to Section 11 to clarify
that all domestic animals must be on a leash including service animals?
Recommendation:
Council approve said amendment to Park Rules and Regulations.
Background:
The City of Renton Board of Park Commissioners reviewed a request from the Piazza
Group to prohibit domestic animals at the Farmers Market. The group's request is based
on several negative experiences occurring during the Farmers Market: dogs sniffing food
for sale, dogfights, and attacks. Park Board agreed that the small area of Piazza Park
combined with food out on display,high-density crowds, and the presence of domestic
animals creates safety and health concerns for the market participants.
Currently, animals on a leash are allowed in all parks, except Gene Coulon Memorial
Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park(Park Rules and Regulations, Criminal Violations,
Section 11). Park Board would like to amend Section 11 to include that domestic

animals, except for service animals, can be restricted from specific events held at parks,
`ko, upon request and subsequent approval of the Park Board. Park Board would also like to
amend Section 11 to extend the requirement that all dogs in parks be on a leash to include
service animals.
Conclusion:
This amendment to the Park Rules and Regulations will eliminate concerns of violations
of health regulations around the sales of food and protect participants at the Farmers
Market from safety concerns.

SUBJECT: Amendment to Park Rules and Regulations
The City of Renton Board of Park Commissioners reviewed a request from the Piazza
Group to prohibit domestic animals at the Farmers Market. Their concerns stem from
several negative experiences involving dogs sniffing the food for sale, dogfights and
attacks. The Board agreed the small area of the Piazza Park combined with the
presence of food out in the open, and frequently high-density crowds create concerns
regarding the safety of the participants as well as the health concerns regarding the
presence of animals around the food. Currently animals are allowed on a leash at all
parks with the exception of Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Park.
Noe The Board would like to amend the rules to state upon their review and approval they
may restrict the presence of domestic animals at specific special events.
I have attached the Park Board agenda outlining the proposed new rules, and minutes
approving those changes for your review. Staff has created a form that would be
completed if a sponsor of a special event requests to ban animals from a park/facility for
a certain day. The completed form would be submitted to park board for their review at
their regularly scheduled monthly meeting and their determination would grant or deny
the exclusion of pets from the event. Signage would be the responsibility of the event
coordinators
It was also suggested titles be added to each section and also in Section 11 adding the
words "including,service animals"to clarify that service animals must also be on a leash.
We appreciate your review of the following as to legal form and return any changes or
clarifications you feel are necessary. Additionally, we will need a resolution to submit
with the agenda bill for Council's review. If you need any further information please feel
free to contact me at X6606.

CORRESPONDENCE
Dennis Culp reviewed the following two letters that were received in November:
Mij Charbonneau wrote a letter thanking the Park Board Members for the
use of the Senior Activity Center for their 3`d annual auction. They
doubled the amount of money raised from last year and had assistance
from the Renton Youth Council in coordinating the auction.
Julia Moore wrote a letter to acknowledge the wonderful job done by
Colleen Heuiser, Recreation Specialist, who runs our Special Populations
Program.
It was noted by the Chair and staff how nice it always is when patrons and
citizens acknowledge the efforts of our staff and our programs and facilities.
CONSENT
Deborah Chesley submitted a request to hold a benefit concert as a fundraiser at
Carco Theatre on January 15, 2005, and possibly a silent auction. The money
taken in would be used to defray medical costs for Jacob Chesley. Staff
recommended approval of the fundraiser and auction contingent on completion of
'1 reservation forms and payment of fees. It was also noted that Ms. Chesley
would be responsible to adhere to any regulation(s)Washington State has
concerning charitable events and required reports. Cynthia Bums made a
motion to approve the consent agenda approving the auction and benefit concert
at Carco Theatre. The motion was seconded by Ralph Evans, all present were in
favor, motion carried.
Derek Todd explained the benefits of the treatment Jacob would be receiving and
about others who have had success. Sylvia Allen requested an update when
they return.
OLD BUSINESS
Council has allocated $1,250,000 to develop Heather Downs.
NEW BUSINESS
Kelly Beymer, Golf Course Manager, discussed the success of the annual
'Balloon Sale." The sale allows patrons to select a helium balloon. Each balloon
has a piece of paper in it indicating a percentage off any merchandise in the pro
shop. This year's sale netted $1,100, which was an increase over last year.

available resources. Brendan has been working on getting information out on the
City's web site that would include projects, application forms, contact information,
etc. He explained he had been in touch with various organizations and the
school district to assess interest levels.
Leslie Betlach discussed possible changes in the park rules and regulations. A
couple issues had presented themselves that could use clarification in the park
rules and regulations. The first was prohibiting dogs from special events, i.e.
Farmers Market. Secondly, we need to spell out that all dogs, including service
dogs, must be on a leash when at our parks. We had a problem in one of our
parks with someone letting their service dog run free within a tennis court and not
cleaning up after their dog. Tim Searing made a motion seconded by Marge
Richter to draft alternate language for consideration to change the park rules and
regulations to clarify all animals must be on a leash, including service animals.
All were in favor, motion carried.
There was discussion regarding the park property on Carr Road and its use.
Cynthia Bums inquired about the progress in replacing bulbs in the Readerboard
at the Community Center.
ADJOURNMENT
Cynthia Bums made a motion to adjourn the December meeting. Troy
Wigestrand seconded the motion, all were in favor, motion carried, meeting

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Although the Honey Creek East Annexation had been approved by the Boundary Review Board
in March 2002, it was never brought to fruition because of the State Supreme Court's ruling that
spring that invalidated this and other annexations using the direct petition method of annexation.
With the reinstatement of the direct petition method of annexation by the State Supreme Court in
January 2004,the BRB recently agreed to reprocess this annexation. The BRB has now re-
approved this proposed annexation. Council is now required to hold a public hearing to consider
ordinances adopting the annexation and rezoning it consistent with the City's Comprehensive
Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Council set May 16, 2005 for a public hearing to consider two ordinances related to the Honey
Creek East Annexation. One of these ordinances would rezone the site to R-8, consistent with the
Comprehensive Pan, and the other would effectuate the annexation by Council action.

SUBJECT: Honey Creek East Annexation—Effectuation and Rezoning
Now
ISSUE:
Whether the 27.5-acre Honey Creek East Annexation should now be brought into the City in
that the Boundary Review Board for King County has now re-approved this annexation; and
Whether the non-street portions of this annexation should be zoned R-8, eight units per net
acre, upon annexation into the City?
RECOMMENDATION:
• That Council accept the Honey Creek East Annexation and adopt the ordinance effectuating
it; and
• That Council support R-8 zoning for the Honey Creek East Annexation site, exclusive of
streets, and adopt the zoning ordinance to do this.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The 27.5-acre Honey Creek East Annexation is immediately west of 132"d Avenue SE(Union
Avenue NE) south of SE 100th Street in Renton's Potential Annexation Area. The site is
currently zoned R-6 (six units per gross acre) in King County and designated for R-8 zoning
under Renton's Residential Single Family (RS) Comp Plan land use designation. The
annexation has had two public hearings, as required under state law, for this zoning change. It
was sent to the Boundary Review Board in January 2002 pursuant to the recommendation of
April 21,2005
Page 2
the City Council. Although approved by the BRB,the State Supreme Court, in March 2002,
invalidated the 60%direct petition method of annexation(based upon assessed value)that had
been used over the previous 57 years throughout the state. As a consequence of this ruling, the
Honey Creek East Annexation was dropped and its file closed.
In January 2004, however, the State Supreme Court rescinded it earlier decision and reinstated
the direct petition method of annexation based upon assessed value, clearing the way for the
City to resubmit this annexation. The annexation was resubmitted to the BRB earlier this year
and approved on April 2, 2005. In order to effectuate this annexation the Council needs to
adopt the two ordinances before it; one for R-8 zoning, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map, and the other for the annexation itself.
CONCLUSION:
The Honey Creek East Annexation which was previously approved by the Boundary Review
Board and found by the Council to be consistent with relevant land use and annexation policies,
should now be brought into the City and rezoned R-8, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.

Maplewood East Annexation
April 26, 2005
Page 2
On November 22, 2004, Council accepted the 60%Direct Petition to annex for the Maplewood
East Annexation and authorized the Administration to transmit the Notice of Intent package to
the Boundary Review Board for their required 45-day review and evaluation. The Boundary
Review Board notified the City that they had approved the proposed annexation effective April
11, 2005.
The 26.14 acre annexation site is currently zoned R-4, four units per gross acre, in King County
and designated for R-4, four units per net acre, under Renton's Residential Low Density (RLD)
Comprehensive Plan land use designation. The site,however, is one of three annexations* that
was vested when the Council adopted the new R-4 zone on November 10, 2004 and replaced
the R-5 zone with it. These three vested annexations, that would most likely have had R-5
zoning upon annexation, were allowed to have the former R-5 zone's density of five (5)units
per net acre, its minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet, and its other minimum lot configuration
standards. There has been one public hearing on zoning and the proposed hearing on May 16,
2005 will be the second required public hearing under state law.
Staff conducted a fiscal analysis for.this site and determined that at full development(assuming
72 new homes), there would be minor annual net fiscal positive impact to the City. A one-time
future park acquisition and development cost attributable to development of the site was
estimated at $27,773, based upon an estimated future population of 195 residents.
CONCLUSION:
Nornov
With the exception of the second required public hearing on the proposed R-4 zoning for the
Maplewood East Annexation and the effectuation of the annexation through the annexation and
zoning ordinances, all the specified requirements under state law (RCW 35.A.14.120-130,
Annexation—Direct petition method)will have been met.
The 26.14-acre Maplewood East Annexation appears to be in the City's best interest and
general welfare since it furthers City business goals, has been approved by the Washington
State Boundary Review Board for King County, and is generally consistent with City
annexation policies.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 15, 2005
TO: Terri Briere, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
VIA: �, L- Mayor Kathy Keolker-Wheeler
FROM: Alex Pietsch, Administrator(\Vie
STAFF CONTACT: Rebecca Lind(ext.6588)
SUBJECT: Moratorium on Residential Development in the Highlands
Study Area
ISSUE:
Noisy
Should the City restrict redevelopment within the Highlands Study Area during preparation of
the Highlands Sub-Area Plan?
RECOMMENDATION:
• Adopt a resolution establishing a moratorium on new development including grading
permits, land clearing and tree cutting permits,building permits, plats, lot line adjustments
and site plan review entitlements in the R-10 and RM-F zones within the Highlands Sub-
Area Plan Study Area.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The City Council adopted two policies in the 2005 Business Plan that directly address priorities
for the Highlands.
Goal#2 states, "Promote Neighborhood Revitalization."
Strategy#3 states, "Create opportunities for new investment in the Highlands and South
Renton neighborhoods."
The City is beginning a new sub-area planning process for the Highlands that will result in land
use actions and densities needed as an incentive for redevelopment in line with the Business
Nklis, Plan. However, in the short term, underutilized land in the area is coming under development
pressure due to the rising cost of land in the vicinity. The current zoning does not allow the
higher densities needed to simulate a larger redevelopment effort. While many properties are
April 20, 2005
Page 2
built out with older housing stock, some existing lots are large enough to subdivide at lower
densities that perpetuate a land use pattern inconsistent with the adopted City goals and vision
for the Center Village Land Use Designation.
The current R-10 zoning in Highlands Study Area allows single-family detached uses in areas
that will be evaluated for higher density as part of the Highlands Sub-Area Plan. The RM-F
zoning allows stacked flats and lower density multi-family development. Recent project
applications are vesting at a lower density than the zoning currently allows. The City currently
has no tools available to discourage these low-density subdivisions and building permits.
Piecemeal development of underutilized parcels will undermine implementation of the overall
redevelopment effort. New low-density residences and/or small-scale multi-family buildings
with a long remaining economic life will perpetuate existing patterns of development and
conflict with the anticipated sub-area plan.
To complete work on the plan, the City needs time to develop policies and new development
standards and begin a public outreach program to gain property owner,business owner, and
resident input and support for the plan. The Planning Commission will be working on the plan
through November 2005. Three public meetings are anticipated including a visioning session
and two "open house"meetings, in addition to Planning Commission workshops. Council
Committee of the Whole briefings are scheduled monthly during plan preparation. The plan is
scheduled to be transmitted to the City Council in December 2005.
It is recommended that the moratorium be established for an initial six-month period, with a
review in October, to determine progress toward new zoning standards. At that point, with
property owner buy-in of the new land use and zoning concepts, it is anticipated that property
owners will support the opportunity for higher density and more efficient land use and will be
willing to wait for the new zoning.
The study area also includes R-8 single-family neighborhoods and commercially zoned areas
that encourage mixed-use residential/commercial development at higher densities. The
recommended moratorium would not include these areas and would not affect commercial
businesses or mixed-use projects.
CONCLUSION:
A moratorium in the Highlands Study Area is needed to relieve pressure from immediate
development in the area and would improve the City's ability to market property as a result of
the new zoning and policy direction. The City needs time to develop new standards that reflect
the City's vision for the Highlands, and to work with property owners to implement its goals.
CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON,
DECLARING A MORATORIUM ON NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE
R-10 AND RM-F ZONES WITHIN THE HIGHLANDS SUB-AREA PLAN
STUDY AREA, ESTABLISHING A HEARING DATE OF MAY 16, AND
ESTABLISHING A TERMINATION DATE FOR THE MORATORIUM.
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has expended substantial time and energy on its
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and associated policies; and
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has identified a study area for refinement of the
Comprehensive Plan with a Sub-Area Plan in the Renton Highlands to further its economic
development objectives; and
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has expended substantial funds developing a preliminary
vision and evaluating market factors for redevelopment in the Highlands study area; and
Niw'' WHEREAS, the R-10 and RM-F zones are currently mapped on a number of properties
within the Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area; and
WHEREAS, the density allowed currently in the R-10 and RM-F zones allow a
minimum of 4 units per net acre and a minimum of 7 units per net acre; and
WHEREAS, the uses in the R-10 and RM-F zones allow single-family detached housing
and lower density duplexes that are not consistent with broad redevelopment objectives for the
Highlands study area; and
WHEREAS, construction of lower density development in the form of single-family or
duplex units removes developable land from the stock of land for development or redevelopment,
thereby frustrating the City's economic development efforts; and
RESOLUTION NO.
WHEREAS, the City of Renton wishes to encourage quality infill development at
%m` densities that supports redevelopment of the Center Village; and
WHEREAS, approval and construction of lower density housing within the identified
study area without review of the Sub-Area Plan policies, may undermine the benefits of
coordinated planning, and may foreclose or irreparably damage long-term Comprehensive Plan
goals; and
WHEREAS, a moratorium is required to provide adequate time for City staff to prepare
and present proposed changes to the Sub-Area Plan and zoning, and present such changes to the
City Council for review and adoption;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON,
WASHINGTON, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. The above findings are true and correct in all respects.
Nome
SECTION II. There is hereby declared a moratorium on the permitting or
construction of residential development, including grading permits, land clearing and tree cutting
permits,building permits, plats, lot line adjustments and site plan review entitlements in the R-10
and RM-F zone within the Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area; such moratorium area is shown
on the attached map. The purpose of the moratorium is to provide adequate time for staff to draft,
review, and present to the City Council, and for the City Council to review and adopt changes to
the Comprehensive Plan policies concerning the appropriate density and use of land within the
Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area.
SECTION III. There is hereby established a public hearing date on May 16, 2005,
for the City Council to take testimony on this moratorium and to consider the modification,
revision, or termination of this moratorium.
2
RESOLUTION NO.
SECTION IV. This moratorium shall be in place for a period not to exceed six
months, unless otherwise modified by the City Council, which period may be extended or
renewed for one or more additional periods, but only if a subsequent public hearing is held and
findings of fact are made prior to each renewal, to support such renewal.

e RE: NE 3rd/4th Corridor Improvements Study
Public Hearing and Adoption of Final Report
The primary recommendation of the report is to construct and install physical
improvements along the corridor to achieve a"boulevard" concept. The project report
includes a Conceptual Layout Plan—a graphic presentation of location-specific
improvements. The project report is the report of the NE 3rd14`h Corridor Improvement
Study identified in the current Six-Year TIP.
Due to the length and cost for complete implementation of the corridor improvements
(estimated at$23.6 M), a phased (15+ years)prioritized implementation approach will be
pursued by the Transportation Systems Division and funding will be pursued through the
grant application process. As projects are identified for design and construction, they will
be presented to Council for funding approval. They will also be identified individually in
future Six-Year TIP's.

CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
RESOLUTION NO. 37.5:0
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON,
DECLARING A MORATORIUM ON NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE
R-10 AND RM-F ZONES WITHIN THE HIGHLANDS SUB-AREA PLAN
STUDY AREA, ESTABLISHING A HEARING DATE OF MAY 16, AND
ESTABLISHING A TERMINATION DATE FOR THE MORATORIUM.
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has expended substantial time and energy on its
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and associated policies; and
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has identified a study area for refinement of the
Comprehensive Plan with a Sub-Area Plan in the Renton Highlands to further its economic
development objectives; and
WHEREAS, the City of Renton has expended substantial funds developing a preliminary
vision and evaluating market factors for redevelopment in the Highlands study area; and
WHEREAS, the R-10 and RM-F zones are currently mapped on a number of properties
within the Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area; and
WHEREAS, the density allowed currently in the R-10 and RM-F zones allow a
minimum of 4 units per net acre and a minimum of 7 units per net acre; and
WHEREAS, the uses in the R-10 and RM-F zones allow single-family detached housing
and lower density duplexes that are not consistent with broad redevelopment objectives for the
Highlands study area; and
WHEREAS, construction of lower density development in the form of single-family or
duplex units removes developable land from the stock of land for development or redevelopment,
thereby frustrating the City's economic development efforts; and
RESOLUTION NO.
WHEREAS, the City of Renton wishes to encourage quality infill development at
densities that supports redevelopment of the Center Village; and
WHEREAS, approval and construction of lower density housing within the identified
study area without review of the Sub-Area Plan policies, may undermine the benefits of
coordinated planning, and may foreclose or irreparably damage long-term Comprehensive Plan
goals; and
WHEREAS, a moratorium is required to provide adequate time for City staff to prepare
and present proposed changes to the Sub-Area Plan and zoning, and present such changes to the
City Council for review and adoption;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON,
WASHINGTON, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION II. There is hereby declared a moratorium on the permitting or
construction of residential development, including grading permits, land clearing and tree cutting
permits, building permits, plats, lot line adjustments and site plan review entitlements in the R-10
and RM-F zone within the Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area; such moratorium area is shown
on the attached map. The purpose of the moratorium is to provide adequate time for staff to draft,
review, and present to the City Council, and for the City Council to review and adopt changes to
the Comprehensive Plan policies concerning the appropriate density and use of land within the
Highlands Sub-Area Plan study area.
SECTION III. There is hereby established a public hearing date on May 16, 2005,
for the City Council to take testimony on this moratorium and to consider the modification,
revision, or termination of this moratorium.
2
• RESOLUTION NO.
SECTION IV. This moratorium shall be in place for a period not to exceed six
months, unless otherwise modified by the City Council, which period may be extended or
renewed for one or more additional periods, but only if a subsequent public hearing is held and
findings of fact are made prior to each renewal, to support such renewal.
PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL this day of , 2005.
