Proclamation
Whereas, the crime of domestic violence violates an individual’s privacy, dignity, security, and
humanity due to the systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual, psychological, and economic control
and/or abuse; and
Whereas, it has been estimated that every nine seconds a woman is beaten by her husband or
boyfriend in this country and, in more than half of those instances, children under the age of 12 are
present; and
Whereas, more than half of abusers responsible for domestic violence related fatal shootings were
prohibited by law from owning firearms; and
Whereas, domestic violence does not discriminate and crosses all economic, racial, gender,
educational, religious, and societal barriers and is sustained by indifference; and
Whereas, the City of Renton is working to improve the overall response to and the reduction of
domestic violence in our region with awareness to the cultural differences in our community; and
Whereas, as our Nation continues to combat the coronavirus pandemic, domestic violence has
increased and the need for services has been limited; and
Whereas, domestic violence is one of the most dangerous calls for law enforcement and the safety of
those involved along with the community is a critical situation; and
Whereas, October is nationally recognized as Domestic Violence Awareness Month;
Now, therefore, I, Armondo Pavone, Mayor of the City of Renton, do hereby proclaim October 2020
to be
Domestic Violence Awareness Month
in the City of Renton, and I encourage everyone in our community to take an active role in supporting all
victims so they can lead healthy lives safe from violent and abusive behavior.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal
of the City of Renton to be affixed this 5th day of October, 2020.

Adjusting Project Scopes and Programmed amounts
In years past, the undetermined
funding consisted of projects that
are listed in the Comprehensive
Plan. Some of those projects have
scope that exceed what could be
done in the next 6 years.
The intent moving forward is to
include more feasible scope and
appropriate phase of projects that
the City hopes to implement if the
funding were made available.

Amendment No. 1 S-00320216 Page 3 of 4
The Port's partnership has proven to be a valuable complement to the many new strategies
that Renton has in place and has served to accelerate our efforts and support growth both in
the city and in the region. A natural area to work together is in support of the Renton
Community Marketing Campaign and its work to promote our community as a destination for
tourism, recreation, business opportunity and investment.
From the beginning, the Renton Community Marketing Campaign has been a success. Over its
course, many new investments have been made, the employment base has diversified, and
Renton's image has been elevated throughout the region. The City desires to build on the
success of its long-standing partnership in community marketing with a fresh approach, sound
strategies and modern communication methods.
Collaboration
In 1997, the City, in conjunction with the Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce, Renton
Technical College, UW Medicine/Valley Medical Center and the Renton School District
launched the Renton community marketing campaign. The mission was to collectively market
the Renton community to recruit quality companies and diversify Renton's employment base.
The five partners continue to work together in these efforts.

SUMMARY

The 2020-2021 work plan operationalizes the priority action items identified by the Executive

AGENDA ITEM #7. e)
RESOLUTION 2020-02 —ATTACHMENT A
SOUTH KING HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESSPARTNERS
2020-2021 DRAFTWORK PLAN
Purpose:Establish a 2020-2021 SKHHP Work Plan that is consistent with the
SKHHP lnterlocal Agreement and shaped by memberjurisdictions.The 2020-2021
SKHHP Work Plan reflects individual jurisdiction needs and interests while furthering
the overall purpose of SKHHP to increase the available options for South King County
residents to access affordable housing and preserve existing affordable housing stock.
Introduction:The South King Housing and Homelessness Partners (SKHHP)
was established through an lnterlocal agreement to work together and share resources
to increase the available options for South King County residents to access affordable
housing and preserve the existing affordable housing stock.
The SKHHP 2020-2021 work plan includes three major areas of work that will facilitate
implementation of the SKHHP lnterlocal Agreement:governance and administration;
policy and planning;and education and outreach.These three major work areas are
broken into five objectives.
Governance and administration is covered in Objective 1 and includes program—wide
management activities that will be completed annually including developing and
adopting an annual work plan and budget.This work area also includes start—up
procedures including establishing decision—making protocols and reporting procedures,
and convening a community advisory board.
Policy and planning is covered in Objectives 2 and 3 and includes advocating for and
establishing a SKHHP affordable housing capital fund;and collaborating with partners
to enhance local policies and programs that accelerate access to affordable housing,
protect existing housing stock,and provide housing security.
Outreach and education is covered in Objectives 4 and 5 and includes representing
South King County and its unique affordable housing needs at all decision tables;and
furthering the understanding of the spectrum of affordable housing options and the
range of related needs and opportunities.
Background:During 2018 and 2019 staff of member jurisdictions discussed a
wide range of work plan ideas for SKHHP;the goal was to identify objectives and action
items for an 18-month work plan.In June 2019,each jurisdiction was asked what
SKHHP “must do”,“should do”,or “could do”during the course of the first 18-months.in
July 24,2020 SKHHP 2020-2021 DRAFTWORK PLAN Page 1 of 8
AGENDA ITEM #7. e)
June 2019,the SKHHP Executive Board reviewed and approved the list by focusing on
the “must do”and “should do"items.
The 2020-2021 work plan operationalizes the list approved by the SKHHP Executive
Board in 2019 and incorporates the HB 1406 sales tax credit and the sub-regional
housing assessment made possible by HB 1923 grant funds.The sub-regional housing
assessment is being coordinated by six of the nine SKHHP partner cities (SoKiHo).The
2020-2021 work plan also identifies allies like the Housing Development Consortium
(HDC)and King County with goals that align with SKHHP that will augment staff
capacity.The 2020-2021 work plan prioritizes the “must do”and “should do”activities
for 2020.Activities that were part of the 2019 list of activities will be reassessed for
possible incorporation in the 2022 work plan.
In February 2020 King County had its first reported case of COVID-19,the disease
caused by the coronavirus.Since February,the pandemic has continued to expand and
we have yet to see the full extent of the virus.On March 23,2020 Governor lnslee
announced a statewide order requiring everyone in the state to stay home for two
weeks.The order required everyone to stay home except to pursue essential activities,
banned all gatherings for social,spiritual,and recreational purposes,and closed all
businesses except those deemed essential.The Stay Home,Stay Healthy initiative has
since been extended through May,2020 with a four phase approach to opening
businesses that will begin on May 5,2020.
In response to the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis,federal,state,and local governments
have mobilized emergency operations centers,implemented temporary policies to
prevent residential and business evictions,and passed unprecedented stimulus
packages in the hopes to lessen the impacts of COVID-19 to individuals and
businesses.The impacts of this crisis are still unfolding and much of the recovery effort
has yet to be determined.During this unprecedented time,staff capacity and local
resources may need to adapt.This may require SKHHP to reanalyze priorities and/or
shift the timeline for the work identified in the work plan.
Progress reports:Consistent with the lnterlocal Agreement,the SKHHP Executive
Manager will submit quarterly budget performance and progress reports on the status of
the work plan elements to the SKHHP Executive Board and the legislative body of each
memberjurisdiction.To be consistent with the administering agency’s finance
department,quarterly progress reports will be provided as follows:
0 Quarter 1:May
0 Quarter 2:August
0 Quarter 3:November
0 Quarter 4:February
Next steps:In accordance with the lnterlocal Agreement,the 2020-2021 SKHHP Work
Plan will be approved by the legislative body of each memberjurisdiction and the

SUBJECT:Resolution to adopt South King Housing and Homeless Partners 2021
Budget
SUMMARY
The South King Housing and Homelessness Partners (SKHHP) 2021 Budget provides an
itemization of all categories of budgeted expenses and itemization of each Party’s contribution,
including in-kind services. Consistent with the SKHHP Interlocal Agreement, the SKHHP budget
must be approved by each legislative body and adopted by the SKHHP Executive Board. The
SKHHP Executive Board adopted the 2021 Budget on July 24, 2020, see attachment to proposed
resolution
BACKGROUND
The draft 2021 SKHHP budget was presented to each member jurisdiction for feedback. The
Renton Committee of the Whole reviewed the draft budget on June 1, 2020. The 2021 SKHHP
Budget maintains current contribution rates for each participating jurisdiction. The jurisdiction
contributions are based on population size.
As shown in the resolution, Renton’s 2021 contribution is $34,000. The funds are included as
part of the Community and Economic Development Department’s annual budget.
In light of the revenue shortfalls and budget uncertainties in all jurisdictions because of the
pandemic, maintaining current jurisdiction contributions was a priority for the SKHHP Executive
Board. Maintaining jurisdiction contributions is made possible by personnel cost savings from
2019 and 2020. Personnel costs savings in 2019 are a result of SKHHP Executive Manager hire
date in January 2020. Projected personnel cost savings in 2020 are a result of hiring a three-

quarter time second position and delaying hiring this position until fall of 2020. Salary and
benefit projections, cost savings in 2019, and projected cost savings in 2020, indicate the
current jurisdiction contributions can maintain current staffing capacity through 2022. Any
changes to staff capacity or increases in the operational budget will require an increase in
jurisdiction contributions.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Resolution adopting the 2021 SKHHP Budget.

City Council Regular Meeting - 05 Oct 2020
SUBJECT/TITLE: King County Youth and Amateur Sports Grant
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Finance Committee
DEPARTMENT: Community Services Department
STAFF CONTACT: Carrie Nass, Recreation and Neighborhood Manager
EXT.:
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
Two $5,000.00 King County Youth and Amateur Sports Grants ($10,000.00 total) will go towards the following:
1.) Update and purchase of at least one large exercise equipment, such as a treadmill or stationary bicycle for
our Renton Senior Activity Center fitness room.
2.) Purchase of two soccer (futsal) goals for a new futsal field/mini pitch (to be installed in spring 2021) at
Highland Park.
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
We plan to update our Renton Senior Center fitness room this fall, to be ready when we are able to re -open to
the public, in Phase 4 of WA State's Safe Start (Covid-19) plan. The fitness room is an important and well used
component of our Senior Center. We strive to offer seniors high-quality programming and equipment. These
grant funds will allow us to update at least one large exercise equipment, such as a treadmill or stationary
bicycle. Recreation and Neighborhood Division is partnering with the RAVE Fo undation (official charitable arm
of the Seattle Sounders) to bring a beautiful new soccer mini pitch to Highlands Park. The mini pitch would be
utilized by community members and students from Highlands Elementary and would be a much -needed asset
to this great community. Aside from a host location for free RAVE organized programs, this mini pitch would
be open for free play for community use and would never be rentable. The mini pitch would be placed on a
concrete oval on the Park property, currently an underutilized space. Construction will take place in spring
2021 and will include a new court surface, acrylic overlay, painting of lines, installing goals, and fencing. King
County funding will help purchase goals for the court. The Sounders crest will be in center circle and white
partner logos in the four corners (RAVE, Renton, King County, and Premera). In early 2021 we will provide an
update on this exciting project.

City Council Regular Meeting - 05 Oct 2020
SUBJECT/TITLE: HB 1590 – Sales & Use Tax for Housing and Related Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Council Concur
DEPARTMENT: Community & Economic Development Department
STAFF CONTACT: Mark Santos-Johnson, Community Development & Housing Manager
EXT.: 6584
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
The City’s Administrative Services Department estimates that the one-tenth of one percent sales and use tax
allowed under HB 1590 equates to about $2.8 million per year in revenue for Renton to use on eligible housing
and related services.
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
In the 2020 Regular Session, the Washington State Legislature approved, and the Governor signed, House Bill
1590 amending RCW 82.14.530 (“HB 1590”). As amended by HB 1590, RCW 82.14.530 authorizes the
imposition of a local sales and use tax that may not exceed one-tenth of one percent for specified housing and
related services for targeted population groups whose income is at or below sixty percent of median income.
As amended by HB 1590, RCW 82.14.530 authorizes a county legislative authority to impose, w ithout a
proposition approved by a majority of persons voting, the above affordable housing and related services sales
and use tax by September 30, 2020. If a county does not impose the full tax rate authorized by September 30,
2020, any city legislative authority located in that county may impose, without a proposition approved by a
majority of persons voting, the sales and use tax in accordance with RCW 82.14.530, as amended by HB 1590.
The City’s Administrative Services Department estimates that the one -tenth of one percent sales and use tax
equates to about $2.8 million per year in revenue for Renton to use on eligible housing and related services.
The projected $2.8 million per year from the sales and use tax allowed by HB 1590 would provide an ongoin g
and significant source of funds for CED’s Housing Opportunity Fund and thereby allow the City to better
address high-priority housing and related services needs in Renton and to help leverage additional funding to
support eligible affordable housing projects in our community.

SUBJECT:HB 1590 – Sales & Use Tax for Housing and Related Services
ISSUE:
Should the City Council impose a sales and use tax as authorized under RCW 82.14.530 for
housing and related services?
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Council adopt an ordinance to impose a sales tax of one-tenth
of one percent as authorized under RCW 82.14.530 for housing and related services.
BACKGROUND:
In the 2020 Regular Session, the Washington State Legislature approved, and the Governor
signed, House Bill 1590 (Chapter 222, Laws of 2020; amending RCW 82.14.530) (“HB
1590”). As amended by HB 1590, RCW 82.14.530 authorizes the imposition of a local sales
and use tax that may not exceed one-tenth of one percent for: (i) constructing affordable
housing; (ii) constructing mental and behavioral health-related facilities; (iii) funding the
operations and maintenance costs of new units of affordable and facilities where housing-
related programs are provided, or newly constructed evaluation and treatment centers;
and (iv) funding the operation, delivery, or evaluation of mental and behavioral health
treatment programs and services or housing-related services. At least sixty percent of the
revenues collected must be used for items i, ii, and iii above, with the balance used for item
iv above.
As amended by HB 1590, RCW 82.14.530 authorizes a county legislative authority to
impose, without a proposition approved by a majority of persons voting, the above
affordable housing and related services sales and use tax by September 30, 2020. If a
county does not impose the full tax rate authorized by September 30, 2020, any city
legislative authority located in that county may impose, without a proposition approved by
a majority of persons voting, the sales and use tax in accordance with RCW 82.14.530, as
amended by HB 1590.
AGENDA ITEM #7. h)
Ruth Perez, Council President
Page 2 of 3
September 28, 2020
The affordable housing and facilities providing housing-related programs constructed with
the moneys collected from the sales and use tax may only be provided to persons within
any of the following population groups whose income is at or below sixty percent of
median income: persons with behavioral health disabilities, veterans, senior citizens,
homeless (or at risk of being homeless) families with children, unaccompanied homeless
youth or young adults, persons with disabilities, or domestic violence survivors.
King County Executive Dow Constantine last week proposed imposing the one-tenth of one
percent sales and use tax as part of his proposed 2021 budget, but no action has been
taken by the King County Council at this time.
The city’s Administrative Services Department estimates that the one-tenth of one percent
sales and use tax equates to about $2.8 million per year in revenue for Renton to use on
eligible housing and related services.
NEED FOR FUNDING:
The Community & Economic Development Department (CED) is currently in the midst of
creating Renton’s first Housing Action Plan. As part of that effort, CED has identified that
there is a need by 2040 for an additional 900 housing units for households with an income
at or below thirty percent of the Area Median Income (AMI) and an additional 1,100
housing units for households with an income at or below fifty percent of AMI. In addition,
forty five percent of Renton’s renter households are cost burdened.1 In order to be able to
more effectively meet the community’s housing needs, the city needs significant funding to
help support the development of additional affordable housing for current and future low-
income households in Renton.
In 2008, the City Council established the Housing Opportunity Fund (HOF) to help
construct, acquire, and/or renovate housing for low- and/or moderate-income households
and/or special needs populations in Renton. The Council authorized $200,000 for the HOF
in 2008. However, due to the financial impacts of the Great Recession and other priorities,
the city has not been able to authorize additional funds to the HOF since 2008.
The HOF is administered by CED. The $200,000 in HOF were used by CED to help leverage
millions of dollars of other funding to build 49 housing units in the following four projects:
the Renton Housing Authority’s Glennwood Townhomes (8 affordable rental housing units)
and Kirkland Avenue Townhomes (18 affordable rental housing units), the Seattle-King
County Habitat for Humanity’s La Fortuna project (11 affordable homeownership units in
phase 1), and Homestead Community Land Trust’s Willowcrest Townhomes project (12
affordable homeownership units). There are no additional funds available in the HOF at
this time to help support additional affordable housing projects in Renton.
1 A renter household is cost-burdened if they spend more than 30% of their income on rent and utilities.
AGENDA ITEM #7. h)
Ruth Perez, Council President
Page 3 of 3
September 28, 2020
The Renton Housing Authority and several non-profit and/or for-profit developers have
proposed additional affordable housing projects in Renton, if funding can be secured to
construct the projects. The projected $2.8 million per year from the sales and use tax
allowed by HB 1590 would provide an ongoing and significant source of funds for CED’s
HOF and thereby allow the city to better address high-priority housing and related services
needs in Renton and to help leverage additional funding to support eligible affordable
housing projects in our community.
CONCLUSION:
Imposing the sales and use tax allowed by RCW 82.14.530 would provide the city with
significant funds to be able to better support high-priority community affordable housing
and related services needs. The funds would also greatly assist the city in addressing the
city’s 2020-2025 Business Plan Goals, including providing a safe, healthy, and vibrant
community and building an inclusive informed city with equitable outcomes for all in
support of social, economic, and racial justice.

City of Renton 2021 - 2026 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Purpose of the Transportation Improvement Program
This document is Renton’s comprehensive transportation program for the ensuing six calendar years and is
mandated by the Revised Code of Washington and Washington Administrative Code. The Transportation
Improvement Program (TIP) is a multi-year planning tool that updates the future plans for transportation
projects and programs within the City that:
support the mission and vision of the Renton Business Plan
include new or enhanced bicycle or pedestrian facilities
or other applicable changes that promote non-motorized transit
reflect the involvement of the public and the City’s elected officials
This document enables the Mayor and the City Council a way to review work that has been accomplished and
current and future transportation needs. The TIP is a planning document that identifies transportation -
related projects which are, or may become, eligible for federal, state and/or local funding. A significant
purpose of the TIP is that local projects must be included to be eligible for state and federal grant programs.

Changes from previous TIP
NEW FEATURES
Updated prioritization process
Funding Status Identifier. Updated status on project pages identifying if a project is currently funded.
Separate Project Description pages and Programmed Expenditure sections. Project scopes have
been adjusted on long-standing projects to be more in line with 6-year timeframe. These are better
reflected by separating the programmed expenditures from the project pages. Realistically looking
ahead toward the next 6-years, only so much can be accomplished with some projects even if it is only
to start design on a project. The project page will still show the estimate for ROW and construction if it
is known.
NEW GRANTS FUNDING

future TIPs.
The next grouping of projects in alphabetical order are projects with full or partial funding secured, such as
with federal or state grants or developer contributions, or where the City has a financial commitment to
implementing within the six-year period.
The last group of projects, where the projects start over in alphabetical order, are unfunded local projects or

TIP project and financial development activities are intricately intertwined and involve interactions with
many groups and agencies at the local, regional, state and federal levels. Within the Transportation Systems
Division of the City of Renton, project development involves year-round coordination between the
Transportation Operations and Transportation Maintenance Section, the Transportation Planning and
Programming Section and the Transportation Design Section.
Within the City of Renton, there are actions and interactions involving other departments and divisions, the
private sector, the City Council and Administration, which strongly influence the direction of the
transportation program. With its heavy dependence on many different and unpredictable sources of
external funding and with the significant impacts created by ongoing local and regional land use decisions,
transportation project development is a continuous activity comprised of a multitude of diverse elements.
The annual update of the TIP helps ensure that Transportation Capital Programming stays aligned with the
City’s current goals and aspirations.

AGENDA ITEM # 9. b)
City of Renton 2021 - 2026 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The TIP process increases transparency and ensures alignment to the City ’s vision as projects or programs get
added, edited, or removed with each annual update. Each program and project will identify which PROJECT
ASPECTS or the goals that it intends to meet. Some projects or programs will have more than one.
What is the purpose of this project?
Maintenance and Preservation: Projects with this aspect include transportation assets that should be
replaced or rehabilitated at the point of lowest cost in the life-cycle to maximize use of funding sources.
Projects that preserve and maintain an asset result extend the useful life before more extensive and costly
repairs or reconstruction are needed.
Operations and Safety: Projects and programs with this aspect help the safety and efficiency of traffic
operations. Typical project elements roadway capacity, channelization, signage, lumination, signalization,
and roadside safety.
Active Transportation / Multi-modal: Projects improve community quality of life by addressing mobility
in multi-modal forms. This emphasizes that people movement is not constrained to motor vehicles. The
ability to utilize and safe access to walking, riding bicycles or other non -motorized vehicles, and public
transportation is critical to a healthy transportation system. Projects typically included in the TIP with this
aspect expand the pedestrian and bicycle network throughout the city where missing or need to be
improved.
Plan Implementation and Compliance: Involves planning, designing, right of way acquisition (if necessary),
and construction of roadway improvements necessitated by new development, regulatory compliance and
other reasons, such as regional transportation projects, economic development, Council policy and/or
directive(s).

Expenditures and Revenues
Historically, the TIP has been funded by revenues consisting of vehicle fuel tax from the state, a distribution
of local business and occupation tax, and transportation impact fees for mitigation. The fuel tax and impact
fees revenues are considered “restricted” because there are limits to what those revenues can be spent on.
The City relies heavily on grant funding to leverage the amount of local funding to implement the larger
capital projects. The financial programming begins with financial forecasts received by the Finance
Department at the start of a fiscal year. Actual revenues and expenditures are reviewed and adjusted
through each budget adjustment.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the financial forecast because of the uncertainty of tax revenues returning
to close to typical levels. Conservative estimates have been used for programming and actual tax receipts
will be reviewed when more data is available to assess if budgets can be adjusted.

Since projects need to be included in the TIP to be eligible for grants, the projects and programs included in
the TIP are projects the City would like to implement in the six-year timeframe if funding were available. The
document also identifies secured or reasonably expected revenues and expenditures for each of the projects
included in the TIP. Typically, projects listed in the first two years of the document are shown as having
secured funding while projects in the outer years can be partially or completely unfunded.
The graph reflects the conservative programming due to financial forecast this TIP.

Summary of Projects and Prioritization
The prioritization of the TIP is influenced by the interconnection and/or interdependence among TIP
projects, projects by other City departments, projects by other jurisdictions, as well as the timing of those
other projects. The significance of the prioritization process of the TIP in preparation for budget discussions
is that the projects and programs are in a ranked order and provide one way to look at the program as a
whole. The projects/programs that do not have secured funding would not appear in budget documents.
The ratings across the business case factors are qualitative because the intent is to provide a way to create
an initial prioritized list of all the projects and programs listed in the TIP. As this was the first year to use
this method to create an initial prioritized list, future years may modify and adjust this process. This
prioritization does not directly affect how much funding specific projects or programs receive. Ultimately,
this is dependent on how much funding is available and the funding decision is made by the elected policy
makers. The TIP is a resource that can be used to help make policy decisions.

89. Special Review Criteria for Variances from Flood Hazard
Requirements in the Critical Areas Regulations: In lieu of the variance criteria of
subsection B56 of this Section, the following directives and criteria shall be utilized
in the review of variance applications related to the flood hazard requirements of
the critical areas regulations:
a. Purpose and Intent: Variances, as interpreted in the national flood
insurance program, are based on the general zoning law principle that they pertain
to a physical piece of property; they are not personal in nature and do not pertain
to the structure, its inhabitants, economic or financial circumstances. They
primarily address small lots in densely populated residential neighborhoods. As
such, variances from the flood elevations should be quite rare.
b. Review Criteria: In passing upon such an application for a variance,
the following review criteria shall be considered:
i. Consider all technical evaluations, all relevant factors, standards
specified in other sections of this Section; and:
(a) The danger that materials may be swept onto other lands to
the injury of others;
(b) The danger to life and property due to flooding or erosion
damage;
(c) The susceptibility of the proposed facility and its contents to
flood damage and the effect of such damage on the individual owner;
AGENDA ITEM # 9. d)
ORDINANCE NO. ________
25
(d) The importance of the services provided by the proposed
facility to the community;
(e) The necessity to the facility of a waterfront location, where
applicable;
(f) The availability of alternative locations for the proposed use
which are not subject to flooding or erosion damage;
(g) The compatibility of the proposed use with existing and
anticipated development;
(h) The relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive
plan and flood plain management program for that area;
(i) The safety of access to the property in times of flood for
ordinary and emergency vehicles;
(j) The expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise, and
sediment transport of the flood waters and the effects of wave action, if
applicable, expected at the site; and
(k) The costs of providing governmental services during and
after flood conditions, including maintenance and repair of public utilities and
facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical, and water systems, and streets and bridges.
ii. Generally, the only condition under which a variance from the
elevation standard may be issued is for new construction and substantial
improvements to be erected on a lot of one-half (1/2) acre or less in size
contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed below

the base flood level, provided criteria in subsection B89b(i) of this Section have
been fully considered. As the lot size increases, the technical justification required
for issuing the variance increases.
iii. Variances may be issued for nonresidential buildings in very
limited circumstances to allow a lesser degree of floodproofing than watertight or
dry floodproofing, where it can be determined that such action will have low
damage potential, complies with all other variance criteria except subsections
B89b(ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section, and otherwise complies with RMC 4-3-050I2a
and I2b of the general standards.
iv. Variances may be issued for the reconstruction, rehabilitation,
or restoration of structures listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the
State Inventory of Historic Places, without regard to the procedures set forth in
this Section.
v. Variances shall not be issued within a designated floodway if any
increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result.
vi. Variances shall only be issued upon:
(a) A showing of good and sufficient cause;
(b) A determination that failure to grant the variance would
result in exceptional hardship to the applicant;
(c) A determination that the granting of a variance will not
result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary
