General Construction Information
Preliminary Short Plat of Vuecrest II
(January 8, 2015)
The construction of new road improvements (half street) along with the installation of utilities for the
proposed short plat of Vuecrest II will involve clearing, grading, and other land disturbance activities. The
following is a summary of how these activities are expected to be carried out and managed to minimize
impacts and comply with applicable rules and regulations during this phase of the project:
· Anticipated Construction Schedule:
Clearing and grading is likely to begin in late 2015 or early 2016 assuming the entitlements
and permits are approved. The bulk of the work should be completed within three to four
months of the construction start. Based on this schedule, we expect that the plat could be
ready for recording in mid-2016, with home building to commence after the plat is recorded.
Model home construction may commence prior to recording as allowed by the City of Renton.
· Hours and Days of Operation:
The typical hours of operation for construction will be from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the winter
months. During the summer months, construction will begin at 7 a.m. and may extend to 7
p.m. (pending approval from the City of Renton). The typical work week will be Monday
through Friday. Construction work may also take place on Saturday as normally allowed by
the City of Renton, especially during the dry season (April to October) in order to expedite
completion of the project during the dry season.
· Proposed Hauling/Transportation Routes:
The haul route for importing or exporting materials to and from the site will be determined
after coordination with the City of Renton Inspector prior to the start of construction.
However, we anticipate that the haul route would be 102nd Avenue S.E. to S.E. 192nd Street
and then east to 108th Avenue S.E. (Benson Highway).
· Measures to be Implemented to Minimize Dust, Traffic and Transportation Impacts,
Erosion, Noise, and other Construction Impacts:
All temporary erosion and sedimentation control measures required by the City of Renton and
other agencies will be implemented and maintained (e.g., rock construction entrance, silt
fencing, temporary storm pond, and straw mulching). Also, as required by Department of
Ecology all erosion BMPs will be implemented and maintained as required by the NPDES
Permit for the duration of the project. Watering will be implemented as necessary to control
dust during the summer months and all construction equipment will be equipped with
appropriate mufflers to comply with local noise ordinances.
· Any Special Hours Proposed for Construction or Hauling (i.e., weekends, late nights):
If it is determined that additional hours are needed to complete the construction, the
contractor will coordinate with the City of Renton and obtain approval for such extended
hours.

· Preliminary Traffic Control Plan:
A Preliminary Traffic Control Plan has not been prepared at this time. Once the haul route(s)
has (have) been approved by the City Public Works Department, a Traffic Control Plan will be
prepared in accordance with the City Road Standards and WSDOT guidelines.
