right-of-way abuts the south edge of the three subject
parcels. Along and to the south of that unimproved road

City of Renton that is zoned Resource Conservation (RC).
Current Use of the Site and any Existing Improvements:
The approximately 9.022-acre site is currently vacant except for some remnant aggregate piles.
Some portions of the site are used for outdoor storage of other construction materials (such as
pipe, manholes, and catch basins) and outdoor storage of construction equipment (such as, but not
limited to: loaders, excavators, dump trucks, spreaders, backhoes and service vehicles). The existing
use area (which is the same as the proposed bulk storage area) is surfaced with crushed aggregate,
which prevents erosion. Stormwater from the site is discharged to ground or captured through a
series of swales and routed to an existing sediment pond on the Black River Quarry property.
Special Site Features (i.e., wetlands. water bodies, steep slopes):
There are no wetlands or water bodies on the three parcels that encompass the proposed site.
An existing steep slope lies along the south edge of the three parcels
Proposed Use of the Property and Scope of the Proposed Development;
The proposed bulk storage use includes: (1) use of most of the property for outdoor stockpiling of
construction aggregates (some stockpiles may be as tall as 40 feet); (2) use of some smaller
portions of the site for outdoor storage of construction materials (such as pipe, manholes, and
catch basins), and (3) use of some smaller portions of the site for outdoor storage of construction
equipment (such as loaders, excavators, dump trucks, spreaders, backhoes, office trailers and
service vehicles). Item’s 2 and 3 would be uses commiserate with a contractors storage yard.
