SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Pursuant to RMC 4-9-250D, the applicant is requesting an Administrative Modification from RMC

section and dead end roadway.
BACKGROUND:
Lind Ave NW is classified as a Residential access street with an existing right -of-way width of 30
feet per the King County Assessor’s Map. The existing pavement width is approximately 20 feet.
The majority of the lots along this dead end street are developed with single family homes.
Per RMC 4-6-060, Complete Street Standards, a Residential Access street requires a minimum
right-of-way width of 53 feet. A paved roadway width of 26 feet consisting of two 10-foot travel
lanes and one 6-foot parking lane is required. A 0.5-foot curb, 8-foot planter, and 5-foot sidewalk
are required along each side of the pavement.
To meet the City’s Complete Street Standards, right-of-way dedication of approximately 36.5 feet
with a minimum of 20 feet of paving, a 0.5-foot curb, an 8-foot planter, and a 5-foot sidewalk is
required along the project frontage.
The proposed residence abuts a dead end roadway. The existing roadway meets the
requirement for an emergency access roadway (20 foot paved roadway width with an approved
fire access turnaround). Currently this roadway is not anticipated to be extended south.
