PROJECT NARRATIVE NAME 2621 Meadow Pl N Lot Size 10080 square feet Lower Kennydale Neighborhood in Renton, Washington This remodel project will require a general Residential
Building Permit along with all the associated permits for a Single Family Residence project including Plumbing, Electrical, Low-voltage, Gas piping and Fire Sprinkler system. The zoning
for this property and all surrounding lots is R-8 currently under an interim zoning ordinance No. 5724. It is currently, and will continue to be used as a single family residence with
a house and carport built in 1960. We are proposing to remodel an existing house by primarily adding a two-car garage to the North. This addition will have a garage to the East and
a kitchen area to the West. There is a gradual slope to the West on the property which will provide a daylight basement room, and we are planning to put a second story above the garage/kitchen
for a master bedroom and offices. The scope of the remodel will include changing the existing house structure removing a “mid-level” floor (approx. 400 sq.ft.) and putting a new roof
on the house. There will be a fire sprinkler system installed throughout, along with upgrades and retrofitting as per engineering specifications. Prior to the completion of the remodel,
the existing carport and attached shed will be removed. An initial estimate of the cost for this remodel project is around $225,000 including the addition of a new water line from the
public street. These costs will be effected by any additional engineering requirements not currently being considered. The value of the structure when completed should be between
$750-799,000 under current market conditions. There no particular special features on this site with regards to steep slopes, wetlands, stream, vegetation or soil conditions. The soil
is typical for the area with some clay and sandy loam which absorbs water and drains easily. There are a few trees of size on the property, but none that should be affected by our
addition as far as we can tell without knowing their root structure. There is no plan to remove any trees at this time. No fill will be involved in this remodel, a small amount (5-10
yards) of soil may be removed during excavation of the foundation. The property is accessed by a private drive (Meadow Place North) and is located at the end of that drive, just over
400 feet from the main street (Meadow Avenue North). There is no plan to provide public rite of way improvements due to being at the end of a private drive. A new water line will be
required to provide sufficient water for a whole house sprinkler system.

Variance Letter.pdf C:UsersELKODocumentsMeadowVARIANCE LETTER.wpd
VARIANCE LETTER FOR THE CITY OF RENTON PLANNING DIVISION My wife and I purchased the home at 2621 Meadow Place North in Renton in May of 2014 with the express purpose of updating the
home and living there for many years. We both find that remodeling instead of tearing down and building new is so much more rewarding and maintains some of the characteristics of the
existing home for neighborhood. We completed a remodel to another home a few blocks away in 2008 and look forward to completing another at this new location in the same neighborhood.
So, even before we sold that home, we began the process of drawing up the plans for the remodel to the 1960 original floor plan. The main feature this property lacked was a two-car
garage. A single family home that is considered “updated” and desirable in this neighborhood must have an attached two-car garage. So, we planned an addition with that two-car garage
and some updating to the rest of the home. There is only a small carport on the property that is barely wide enough to accept two cars without any walls or much room between the cars.
Enclosing this structure is not an option. Expanding the structure (away from the house) towards the East would not be feasible as it would then not conform to any setback. The best
way to create a reasonable two-car garage would be adding to the North of the home and remove the existing carport with attached shed. After considerable months of effort and expense,
we had a working set of plans with engineering ready for the permit process. And then we found out that the zoning had just changed and our plans were no longer compliant with the
interim zoning. After months of consideration and discussion about possible options and configurations, we believe the only way to provide this property with an attached two-car garage
is by obtaining a variance of the front setback regulations. Due to the current positioning of the existing home, there isn’t sufficient room to add a two car garage without encroaching
into a setback. Given that reality, without the granting of a variance for the addition, we would not be allowed to have a two-car garage. This would significantly diminish any value
added to updating the existing home, creating a hardship to our efforts. This property is located over 400 feet from any public street and is 10,000 square feet in size. Even with the
addition, we would be over 15 feet from our Northern neighbors’ home and compliant on the sides. And, we will be removing the existing carport and shed to the East which helps balance
the impervious surface of the new addition. The effect to the neighbors and neighborhood is negligible given the private nature of the drive, and the fact that we are at the very end
of that drive. We have reviewed our plans with all close neighbors and have not received any negative feedback. This variance will not effect the use, view or create any limitation
of other properties in the vicinity of our home. We reduced the overall width of the garage to less than 23 feet from the preferred 24 feet to reduce the extension into the setback.
Any smaller size would make the interior of the garage very tight and shear panels on either side of the garage door more difficult and expensive to engineer. And, we stepped the
non-garage area of the house (to the West) in by 4 feet to reduce the setback encroachment along the rest of the addition. As you can see, the homes along this lane were not built
with any survey or property line in mind. The neighbors home abuts our property line and with property line angled, the our existing house (and new addition) does not set parallel
to that line. This makes the setback distance vary, with the average being around 15 feet. Given the expressed requirement of a two-car garage, the difficulty of using any existing
structure for that purpose, and the private nature of the location, we are requesting a variance of the front yard setback of 25 feet, to the measurements noted on the site plan. Sincerely,
Eric Komarniski
