1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND
Hex Report.doc
The applicant is requesting Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit approval in order to
establish an additional space for the Highlands Community Church within a portion of the
existing Renton Housing Authority administration building across NE 10th St. from the main
chu rch site,
The site is located in the CV zone, near the Highlands shopping area behind Sunset Blvd.
There is multi-family housing to the east and south of the site, and commercial to the west
and north. The site slopes gently downward from east to west. It is developed with a 13,416
sq. It. one-story brick building, which is located at the lront of the site along the NE 10th St.
frontage, A parking lot containing 74 parking stalls is located at the west side and rear 01 the
building. Approximately 12 stalls are sectioned off with chain link lencing lor Renton
Housing Authority maintenance vehicles. There is an approximately 10 It. to 15 It. wide strip
01 landscaping around the edge 01 the site.
The space to be occupied by the church is approximately 3,166 sq. ft. in area. It would
encompass an approximately 2,200 sq. ft. large open room, two Single restrooms, and a 400 sq.
It. kitchen. The applicant does not propose any changes to the building. The applicant proposes
use 01 approximately 6001 the 74 parking stalls on the site.
The new church space in the Renton Housing Authority building would be used lor social and
religious events, classes and services. Initial plans are to use the space on Sunday mornings.
30 to 80 people would attend classes on that day Irom approx. 9:30 am till noon. At a luture
date, the applicant would like to include evening classes and other events. This could include
receptions, adult and youth classes, and partnering church events. Up to 100 people would
attend. Events and classes would occur during the day and evenings on weekends and between
approx. 6 pm and 9 pm on weekdays.
Use 01 the space would expand the capacity 01 the existing Highlands Community Church
congregation, which has its main building across 10 th Ave NE from the Renton Housing Authority
building. The main church was built in 1960, A conditional use permit was granted on August 3,
1999 to permit expansion of the 56,920 sq. ft, church complex by 1,100 sq. It. The main church
has seating for up to 567 people, The site has 321 parking stalls, which would more than meet
the current parking requirement of one stall per 5 seats in the main auditorium, or 113 stalls. The
congregation has approximately 1,800 members, including the children. They predict that their
City of Renton P/B/PW Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA06-076, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DA TE August 15. 2006 Page 4 of 10
highest future number of members would be 2,300. Events in the main church include services
on Saturday evenings at 6 pm and Sunday mornings at 8 am, 9:30 am and 11:10 am. Events
take place on Friday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
The new space in the Renton Housing Authority building would be northwest of the main church
building, across NE 10th St.. Although parking would be provided on-site for the new space,
pedestrians would likely be crossing the street to and from the main church on the weekends
when service times in the main church and class times in the new space would coincide.
The Renton Housing Authority would continue to use their building for administrative purposes.
Only a portion of the building that was formerly used for storage would be leased to the church.
The Renton Housing Authority has approximately 35 employees who work core hours of Monday
through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They have about 40 customers per day, including adults and
children. Most customers come between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.
2. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposal is exempt from Environmental (SEPA) review per WAC 197-11-800.
3. COMPLIANCE WITH ERC MITIGATION MEASURES

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 CONDITIONAL USE CRITERIA:
Hex Report.doc
Section 4-9-030.G lists 11 criteria that the Hearing Examiner is asked to consider, along with all
other relevant information, in making a decision on a Conditional Use application. These include
the following:
(1) CONSISTENCY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, ZONING CODE & OTHER
ORDINANCES:
The proposed use shall be compatible with the general purpose, goals, objectives and
standard of the Comprehensive Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and any other plan, program,
map or ordinance of the City of Renton.
(a) Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element
The subject site is designated Center Village (CV) on the City's Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Map. The Center Village is characterized by areas of the City that provide an
opportunity for redevelopment as close-in urban mixed-use residential and commercial
areas that are pedestrian oriented. These areas are anticipated to provide medium to
high density residential development and a wide range of commercial activities serving
citywide and sub-regional markets. Center Villages typically are developed within an
existing suburban land use pattern where opportunities exist to modify the development
pattern to accommodate more growth within the existing urban areas by providing for
compact urban development, transit orientation, pedestrian circulation, and a community
focal point organized around an urban village concept. The following Comprehensive
Plan Land Use policies are applicable to the proposal:
Objective LU-X: Site religious and ancillary facilities in a manner that provides
convenient transportation access and minimized their adverse impacts on adjacent land
uses.
City of Renton PIB/PW Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA06-076, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DA TE August 15, 2006 Page 50f 10
Hex Report.doc
The proposed church space would use the existing parking lot and access points on the
Renton Housing Authority administration building site, The parking lot is accessed
directly from NE 10th St. at the west end of the site, closest to the commercial uses along
NE Sunset Blvd. There is one multi-family building directly across NE 10th St. from the
site that could be impacted by the additional traffic to and from the site. Classes and
events would be held on weekday evenings and on weekends, which would minimize the
impacts of the church on adjacent businesses, but not on residents nearby. Residents
across the street from the site would likely see and hear more cars coming and going
from the site than in the past. In an area zoned for more intense urban development
such as this, though, some form of more intense use of the site is to be expected. There
is a bus stop directly in front of the site, and others on NE Sunset Blvd. not far from the
site.
Policy LU-105. Parking should be provided on-site and buffered from adjacent uses.
The applicant estimates that the new church occupant would use approximately 60 of the
74 parking stalls in the existing parking lot. Twelve of the stalls are sectioned off with
chain link fencing for Renton Housing Authority maintenance vehicles. There is an
approximately 10ft. wide planting strip buffering the parking lot to the multi-family
residential development to the east and south. At the east, where the neighboring multi-
family buildings are closest to the site, the planting strip contains mature medium sized
beach trees and scattered 1.5 ft. high Portuguese Laurel shrubs. Staff recommends that
in order to provide better buffering of the parking for the neighboring residents, the
applicant be required to provide additional shrubs that will reach a height of about 4 ft. A
shrub such as dogwood may be chosen that allows some transparency while offering
more visual buffering.
Policy LU-325. Encourage shared parking to use urban land efficiency.
The proposal to use part of the Renton Housing Authority administration building for
religious classes and events at hours when the building would not normally be being
used, would result in the parking lot being more lully used and alleviate the need for more
parking at another site.
(b) Zoning Code
The proposed church use is located within the Center Village (CV) zoning designation.
The purpose of the Center Village (CV) is to provide an opportunity for concentrated
mixed-use residential and commercial redevelopment designed to urban rather than
suburban development standards that supports transit-oriented development and
pedestrian activity, The proposed church use would be permitted in the CV zone subject
to Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit approval.
(c) Development Standards
The Center Village (CV) development standards require a minimum front yard setback of
10 It. and a maximum lront yard of 15 ft. The minimum front yard setback can be
reduced to 0 ft. through the site plan review process. The minimum side yard setback is
Oft" except if the building is next to a residentially zoned parcel, then the minimum
required setback is 15 ft. This site has residentially zoned property abutting it to the north
and is thus subject to the 15 ft. setback. The minimum side yard along a street setback is
10 It. and the minimum rear yard setback is 0 unless there is abutting residential zoning,
which in this case there isn't. Although the building has only a 10 It. side yard setback to
the east, which would not meet the minimum requirement today, the building is an
existing legal structure.
The Center Village (CV) zone allows a maximum building lot coverage of 65%, or 75% il
the parking is within the building, The building footprint of the existing structure is
City of Renton P/B/PW Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA06-076, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DA TE August 15, 2006 Page 60f 10
Hex Report.doc
approximately 13,416 sq. ft. On the 55,757 sq. ft. lot the building results in a lot
coverage of 24%, which complies with the development standards.
The maximum building height in the CV zone is 50 ft., except when abutting lots zoned
residential, such as the lot to the east that is zoned RM-F, then the maximum height is 45
ft. The building is one story high and well below the 45 ft. height limit. So the existing
structure complies with the height requirements. No exterior building alterations are
proposed as part of this conditional use permit.
(2) COMMUNITY NEED:
There shall be a community need for the proposed use at the proposed location. In the
determination of community need, the Hearing Examiner shall consider the following
factors, among all other relevant information:
(a) The proposed location shall not result in either the detrimental over concentration
of a particular use within the City or within the immediate area of the proposed use.
The subject site is surrounded by commercial and multi-family residential uses. The use
of part of the Renton Housing Authority building for religious classes and events is being
proposed in order to meet a need of the church for more space. The proposal to meet
this need by using an existing building and parking lot would alleviate the necessity of
building additional space and more parking elsewhere to meet this need. There are
other churches located in the Highlands at NE 7'h St. and Edmonds Ave NE, the 1000lh
block of Lynnwood Ave. NE, Edmonds Ave. NE and Sunset, and Edmonds and NE 161h
St. These churches are of varying denominations, though, and the high membership of
the Highlands Community Church attests to a need that is apparently being met by this
particular church. The proposal would not result in a detrimental over concentration of a
church use in the area. Furthermore, as the proposed church is to be located within an
existing building and would conduct services outside of normal office business hours, the
proposed church use is not expected to increase noise, odor, traffic, or produce other
adverse impacts to surrounding properties more than could be expected of a permitted
use in the zone.
(b) That the proposed location is suited for the proposed use.
The additional church space would be located in an area between existing commercial
development and multi-family development. It would be in a commercial I mixed-use
zone, the CV, that was created and mapped with the purpose of increasing the intensity
of use of the area. By using the existing Renton Housing Authority administration
building during non-business hours, the site would be used more fully to it's potential.
The possibility of the church use being expanded where it might have a greater impact
would be reduced.
(3) EFFECT ON ADJACENT PROPERTIES:
The proposed use at the proposed location shall not result in substantial or undue
adverse effects on adjacent property. The following site requirements shall be required:
(a) Lot Coverage: Lot coverage shall conform to the requirements of zone in which the
proposed use is to be located.
The Center Village (CV) zone allows a maximum building lot coverage of 65%, or 75% if
the parking is within the building. The building footprint of the existing structure is
approximately 13,416 sq. ft. On the 55,757 sq. ft. lot the building results in a lot coverage
of 24%, which complies with the development standards. No proposal was made to
change the footprint of the building.
(b) Yards: Yards shall conform to the requirements of the zone in which the proposed
use is to be located. Additions to the structure shall not be allowed in any required yard.
The applicant does not propose to make changes to the existing structure, so the yards
would not be altered. The existing building would meet its setback requirements, as
described above under 5(1 )(c) Development Standards. As explained above, the side
City of Renton P/BIPW Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA06-076, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DA TE August 15, 2006 Page 7 of 10
Hex Report.doc
yard on the east side of the building is 5 ft. less than the required 15 ft. The building is an
existing legal structure, though, so it would not be required to meet the setback
requirement.
(c) Height: Building and structure heights shall conform to the requirements of the
zone in which the proposed use is to be located. Spires, bell towers, public utility
antennas or similar structure may exceed the height requirement upon approval of a
variance. Building heights should be related to surrounding used in order to allow optimal
sunlight and ventilation, and minimal obstruction of views from adjacent structures.
The applicant is not constructing a new building or making alterations to the existing
structure. The existing building is only one-story in height and is well below the allowable
45 ft., as described above under 5(1 )(c) Development Standards.
(4) COMPATIBILITY:
The subject property is located in the Highlands commercial area, in a commercial I
mixed-use zone (CV). To the west of the site is a vacant drycleaning business. To the
northwest is Hillcrest Family Bowling and its parking lot. To the south is a multi-family
housing building in the CV zone, and to the east and northeast are multi-family residential
buildings in the RM-F, multi-family residential zone. The site lies on the edge of the CV
zoning designation, where the zoning changes from commercial I mixed-use to multi-
family residential and beyond that single-family residential. The church classes and
events would be a use that is somewhat intense at certain times of the week that do not
coincide with the hours when businesses are generating higher amounts of customer
traffic. Classes would be held on Sundays from 9:30 am to noon. At a later date, the
church would like to add afternoon classes on Sundays, morning and afternoon classes
on Saturdays and evening classes, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., on weekdays. These hours of
church use would compliment the existing social services use that goes on during the
day. The proposal would make better use of an existing building and parking lot, and
thus accommodate more growth within the existing urban areas as encouraged in the CV
designation by the Comprehensive Plan. The site of the proposed use for church classes
and events would be convenient for the church because it is just one lot over and across
the street from their existing church complex.
The proximity to multi-family housing, to the south and east, could create some conflict at
the most intense times of use, on Sundays. The increased number of cars entering the
Renton Housing Authority building parking lot could be bothersome to residents of
adjacent properties. It would increase the total amount of time the site is being used.
The increased traffic and noise would be limited, though, to prior to and after the church
events as members of the congregation arrive, gather, and depart from the site.
Staff considers the proposed church to be compatible with other existing uses in the
immediate vicinity of the project. Although some impact is expected, it is limited and to
be expected considering the intensity of land use that is intended in the CV zoning
designation. Although the use is compatible to its surroundings, staff does recommend
additional landscaping, to provide visual relief and buffering for the residents living
adjacent to the site. The additional landscaping is described below under section 8,
Landscaping.
(5) PARKING:
The maximum number of attendees expected at the Highlands Community Church
classes and events in the new space in the Renton Housing Authority administration is
100. Based on seating for 100 people, 20 on-site parking stalls are required. The
available parking on the site is 75 parking stalls and the applicant has indicated the
church may use up to 60 parking stalls during services and events. The parking would
thus be sufficient for the church use of the Renton Housing Authority site.
The main church complex also has sufficient on-site parking. The Highland Community
Church has approximately 1,800 members, including children. They expect they may
grow to upwards of 2,300 members. The main church has seating for up to 567 people.

LUA06-076, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DATE August 15,2006 Page 8 of 10
Hex Report.doc
Based on a ratio of one stall for every five seats in the main auditorium the main church
would require 113 stalls. Their main church complex site more than meets the parking
code requirements with its 325 parking stalls.
(6) TRAFFIC:
Traffic and circulation patterns of vehicles and pedestrians relating to the proposed use
and surrounding area shall be reviewed for potential effects on, and to ensure safe
movement in the surrounding area.
The south property line of the subject site is along NE 10'h SI. As previously stated,
classes would be held on Sundays from 9:30 am to noon. At a later date, the church
would like to add afternoon classes on Sundays, morning and afternoon classes on
Saturdays and evening classes, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., on weekdays. The peak traffic
times of these classes and events would be after general business hours. They would
extend the hours of increased traffic at the site. The increased traffic would be contained
to the times when church members were arriving and leaving classes though.
For the residents of the multi-family housing complexes to the south and east of the site,
there will be an increase in the amount of noise and traffic they are exposed to. Given
that the site is zoned for a more intense use though, use for religious classes and events
at the proposed scale and times would not produce impacts that warrant not permitting
the use. Staff does recommend, though, that the applicant be required to install
additional perimeter landscaping, to offer neighboring residents some visual and noise
relief from the increase in cars circulating in the parking 101. The recommended
landscaping is addressed in section 8, Landscaping, below.
(7) NOISE, GLARE:
Potential noise, light and glare impacts shall be evaluated based on the location of the
proposed use on the lot and the location of on-site parking areas, outdoor recreational
areas and refuse storage areas.
Activity on Sunday, and eventually on Saturdays and weekday evenings, would create
some traffic and noise impacts. However, these impacts are expected to be limited to
prior to and after the church services as congregation members arrive, gather and visit,
and depart. Staff does not expect any short-term construction noise as no construction
improvements are proposed to the existing building. In addition, the proposed church
services would be held on Sundays outside of normal business hours and would
therefore minimize the short-term noise and traffic impacts generated by the church use.
Finally, light and glare should not be an issue because the building is existing and no
exterior alterations are proposed as part of this conditional use permit application.
(8) LANDSCAPING:
Landscaping shall be provided in all areas not occupied by building or paving. The
Hearing Examiner may require additional landscaping to buffer adjacent properties from
potentially adverse effects of the proposed use.
There is currently an approximately 10 fl. wide landscape strip along the perimeter of the
site. The development regulations require new projects to provide 10 fl. wide landscape
strips along all street frontages, and 15 fl. wide landscape buffers where the sites are
adjacent to residentially zoned lots. Although the code does not require existing
landscaping to be brought up to current development standards when there is a change
of use of the site, changes to the landscaping should be considered if they can reduce
the impact of the new use on the surroundings.
Because there will be an increase in use of the parking lot and building, staff
recommends that the landscaping be supplemented to provide the necessary buffering
for neighboring residents and businesses. Under the section 4 Compatibility, above, staff
recommends additional plantings along the east edge of the parking 101. In addition, staff
recommends additional landscaping in the east planting strip, where the building is
located. The planting strip is at the top of a rockery that is almost as high as the building.
City of Renton P/8/PW Department Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner
LUA06"()76, CU-H RHA Highlands Church Lease Conditional Use Permit
PUBLIC HEARING DA TE August 15, 2006 Page 90f 10
Security fencing with barbed-wire prohibits people from getting onto the roof of the
building, but also fences off the landscape strip. The landscaping here has been
abandoned, and there are currently only overgrown grass and weeds growing there.
Staff recommends that landscaping be installed that will provide visual relief from the
unsightly situation at this end of the building, which is quite close to the multi-family
residential buildings to the east The applicant may consider drought tolerant climbing
plants that would be easily maintained but supply much needed visual buffering along the
fence for the residents and passers by.
In addition to the landscaping along the east side of the site, staff recommends that the
applicant be required to replant the missing perimeter trees. There are several obvious
gaps in the street trees around the site. Replanting the missing trees would help reduce
the impact of the more intense use of the site on the neighboring uses.
(9) ACCESSORY USES:
Accessory uses to conditional uses such as day schools, auditoriums used for social and
sport activities, health centers, convents, preschool facilities, convalescent homes and
others of a similar nature shall be considered to be separate uses and shall be subject to
the provisions of the use district in which they are located.
There are no accessory uses proposed. Adult and youth classes, services and events
would be held on weekend mornings and afternoons, and weekday evenings. "Vacation
Bible School" might be held in the space once a year for one week from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30
p.m.
(10) CONVERSION:
No existing building or structure shall be converted to a conditional use unless such
building or structure complies, or is brought into compliance, with the provisions of this
Chapter.
The applicant proposes to convert a storage area in an existing administration building
into a space for religious classes and events. The proposed church shall obtain an
Occupancy Permit to change the use of the space. Staff recommends as a condition of
approval that the applicant be required to obtain an Occupancy Permit from the City's
Building.
(11) PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS:
The proposed use and location shall be adequately served by and not impose an undue
burden on any public improvements, facilities, utilities, and services. Approval of a
conditional use permit may be conditional upon the provision and/or guarantee by the
applicant of necessary public improvements, facilities, utilities, and/or services.
Because the subject site is existing and fully developed, no additional street or utility
improvements are required as part of the proposal. Utilities Staff has indicated that all
existing public utilities are currently sufficient to serve the proposed development
associated with this conditional use permit
