A�AN ,mG°�� APPLICANT: John E. Nelson FILE NO. Short Plat 357-79, W-358-79 LOCATION: Vicinity of 2224 N.E. 50th Street. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of a proposed four-lot short plat for future residential use. A waiver of the required off-site improvements is also sought. SUMMARY OF ACTION: Planning Department Recommendation: Approval with restrictive covenants. Hearing Examiner Decision: Approval with restrictive covenants. PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department preliminary report was received by the REPORT: Examiner on June 15, 1979. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on June 19, 1979 at 9:05 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department report, and the report was entered into the record as Exhibit #1. David Clemens, Senior Planner, reviewed Exhibit #1, and entered the following additional exhibits into the record: Exhibit #2: Short Plat as submitted Exhibit #3: Short Plat with staff comments The Examiner asked the applicant if she concurred in Exhibit #1. Responding was: Helmie Nelson 2224 N.E. 50th Street Renton, WA 98055 Mrs. Nelson indicated concurrence in the recommendations contained in the report. The Examiner inquired whether septic tanks or sewers are proposed to serve the upper two lots, Lots 1 and 2. Mrs. Nelson indicated that a septic system is currently proposed. The Examiner inquired if water service is available to Lots 1 and 2. Mrs. Nelson advised that water service would be furnished by Water District 107 although she was uncertain of the size of the existing lines. The Examiner inquired regarding incidence of slippage or erosion on the slopes adjoining the property containing Lots 1 and 2. Mr. Clemens and the applicant advised that the property in question reflects a stable condition. The Examiner requested testimony in support of the application. There was no response. He then requested testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: Gail Baumgartner 7425 114th S.E. Renton, WA 98055 Ms. Baumgartner was affirmed by the Examiner. She stated her concern regarding increased traffic resulting from the proposal onto N.E. 50th Street, a narrow roadway, and inquired if sewers would be installed on the site. The Examiner asked the applicant if her existing residence is served by sewer or septic system. Mrs. Nelson advised the existence of a septic tank. The Examiner requested further testimony in opposition. __There was no response. He then requested general comments. Responding was: Sh. P1. 357-79 Page Two James Hart 11055 S.E. 72nd Renton, WA 98055 Mr. Hart advised the existence of a discrepancy on the short plat map which includes a portion of S.E. 72nd Street north of the proposal in the Renton city limits, and clarified that the roadway is contained within King County boundaries. Therefore, he indicated, approval of a waiver of off-site improvements may not be within the city's jurisdiction. Mr. Hart stated that an application for vacation of S.E. 72nd Street is currently underway in King County, although the applicant has not indicated support in the request. He noted that off-site improvements have not been provided in other recent developments in the area and the roadway is consequently deteriorating. Referencing Section F.1 of Exhibit #1 regarding water and sewer service, Mr. Hart clarified that existing water lines on S.E. 72nd Street are private, a large water main on S.E. 50th Street provides service to his residence, and an existing 8-inch sewer line in Lake Washington Boulevard cannot accommodate additional service until a new trunk line is installed. The Examiner inquired if Mr. Hart's property is served by septic tank and whether he is aware of any problems with septic tanks in the area. Mr. Hart advised that his property is served by a septic tank and he is aware of only one septic problem which has occurred to a new residence located on the corner of Lake Washington Boulevard and N.E. 50th Street. Referencing previous comments regarding participation in the vacation of N.E. 72nd Street, Mrs. Nelson clarified that she had withdrawn her support of the street vacation upon discovery that an adjacent property owner was not participating, and denial of access to Lots 1 and 2 would occur. She stated that the vacation ordinance currently under consideration by King County would vacate the portion of S.E. 72nd Street from Lake Washington Boulevard to 112th Avenue S.E. , but properties located between Tracts 145 and 146 would not be included because at least 50% of the abutting property owners had not agreed to participate. The Examiner inquired whether the roadway is a street right-of-way or an easement, and whether the public would retain easement rights to use the street if vacated. Although Mr. Clemens was uncertain, he presumed that S.E. 72nd Street is an existing right-of-way at the present time. He indicated that in most cases the only rights which would remain as a result of a street vacation would be for the purpose of public utilities, although King County procedure may differ. Mr. Hart advised that upon approval of a vacation in King County, individual property owners assume title to 30 feet of the land although dedication of five feet on each side of the centerline is requested for future installation of water and sewer lines. He also stated that any future easement or access on that property must be accomplished separately and must be addressed at the time of the street vacation. The Examiner noted that if the street remains a public right-of-way, access is available to residents, and the City of Renton may or may not have the authority to waive off-site improvements on a roadway in King County. Mr. Clemens agreed to research the matter and receive clarification from representatives of King County and the City Attorney. The Examiner stated that resolution of the matter may require more than the normal 14-day period allowed the Examiner for issuance of a decision, and asked the applicant if she objected to extension of the time period to 30 days. The applicant indicated her concurrence in the request. The Examiner requested further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on File No. Short Plat 357-79 and W-358-79 was closed by the Examiner at 9:35 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1. The request is for approval of a residential four-lot short plat of +5 acres and a waiver of off-site improvements subject to a covenant for future installation. 2. The Planning Department report sets forth the issues, applicable policies and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter, and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report by reference as set forth in full therein. 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, R.C.W. 43.21.C. , as amended, the subject proposal was determined to be exempt by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official. 4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development. Sh. P1. 35.7-79 Page Three 5. The proposal is compatible with the required setbacks, lot coverage and height requirements of Section 4-729(D) of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628, Code of General Ordinances. 6. The subject property is located in the far north section of the City of_Renton in the vicinity of 2224 N.E. 50th Street. The lot is bounded on three sides by King County. • 7. The• applicant proposes dividing the subject property into four lots. Three of the proposed lots would contain 9,600 square feet each. Two of these, Lots 1 and 2, would be located along the northernmost portion of the subject property. The third, Lot 3, • would be located along. N.E. 50th Street at the extreme southwest corner of the subject property. The fourth remaining lot, #4, contains the applicant's current residence and will be over four acres in size. 8. Lots 3 and 4 will both front on N.E. 50th Street. The other two lots will front on S.E. 72nd Street, an unopened (dirt and gravel) King County street right-of-way. There is• currently no sewerage available and Lots 1 and 2 are along a private water main. The applicant proposes septic tanks for the three undeveloped lots. The developed Lot 4 has an existing septic system. • 9. The topography of the site rises from south to north at an average slope of 16.5%. The northernmost lots are located about 4/5 of the way back on the subject parcel and high up on a bluff overlooking the remainder of .the lot and with views of Lake Washington. 10. The upper•portion of the subject property is heavily wooded with a variety of vegetation. 11. The applicant's existing residence and some accessory buildings are located in the north central area of the subject property. The area is generally developed with scattered, large lot, single family residences. 12. Testimony, other than the applicant's,' centered around the probable increase in traffic and the availability of water and whether or not the Renton Hearing Examiner had the jurisdiction to waive off-site improvements on a King County street. 13. Lots 1 and 2 are each adjacent to other developed lots which use the unimproved dirt and gravel road for access. There are no off-site improvements in the area. There- has been a request to have this portion of S.E. 72nd Street vacated. Such action would cut off access to the applicant's proposed northerly lots and require private easement arrangements. Without the applicant's support the vacation will probably not.be successful. The applicant has requested a waiver for• off-site improvements along -S.E. 72nd Street pursuant to Section 9-1105.6.B. 14. The plat map submitted by the applicant does not indicate the right-of-way for S.E. 72nd Street which is neither opened nor vacated at present. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The subject proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan which designates this area as suitable for single family residential development. In addition, the proposal is compatible with the subject property's zoning which is G-9600. The proposed lots either meet or exceed the district's minimum lot area requirements. 2. At present there are no off-site improvements along S.E. 72nd Street and the present street is no more than a narrow dirt and gravel roadway. Therefore, Lots 1 and 2, which need access via S.E. 72nd Street, should not be developed until the roadway is opened and improved. The lack of improvements, though, should not stop the proposed subdivision which is consistent with. land use in the area. The applicant should therefore be permitted to subdivide the subject property subject to covenants to install the off-site improvements prior to development. 3. Because the frontage of Lots 1 and 2 lie along a King County right-of-way, the Examiner believes that the issue of jurisdiction for the issuance of a waiver from the requirements of off-site improvements is valid. Therefore, the waiver shall be subject to the needs and requirements of King County in addition to those conditions laid out in_ Conclusion No. 2, that is, S.E. 72nd Street is to be improved at the request of King County or upon development of Lots 1 and 2, whichever occurs first. Sh. rl. 357-79 Page Four 4. The approval of this short plat will be conditioned on the prior approval of the King County Health Department of the plans for septic tanks. DECISION: Exhibit #3 and the waiver of off;site improvements are approved subject to the following conditions: 1. A restrictive covenant requiring installation of off-site improvements along S.E. 72nd Street under the following circumstances and in the following manner: a. By participation in any future LID instituted by or on behalf of King County for the improvement of S.E. 72nd Street; or b. Installation of off-site improvements along the length of S.E. 72nd Street from its intersection at 116th Street S.E. to the subject property prior to the issuance of building permits for Lots 1 and 2. The earlier of these occurrences, "a" or "b", would be controlling. The restrictive covenant shall also require future participation in an LID on N.E. 50th Street for off-site improvements. 2. Approval of septic tank installation by the King County Health Department prior' to recording of the plat. 3. Correction of the plat survey to indicate the existence of the non-vacated S.E. 72nd Street right-of-way. ORDERED `THIS 27th day of June, 1979. Fred J.

Nelson; C'1N NTriG Supplementary Request for Reconsideration —� Dear Mr. & Mrs. Nelson: I have this date reviewed the above-referenced request for reconsideration and my response follows. First, the lot identification numbers are based on the Plat Map submitted by the Planning Department and identified as Exhibit #3, attached to the Examiner's Decision (see attachment) . Exhibit #3 is the Plat Map upon which the approval was based. The two northerly lots are, therefore, identified from west to east as Lot 1 and Lot 2. The southerly lots are identified as Lot 3 (extreme south- westerly lot) and Lot 4 (large remaining lot) . This is also the manner in which the Planning Department Report identified the lots. I hope this straightens out any possible confusion. Next, the City of Renton, in which the subject property is located, may attach conditions to development within the city limits which are reasonably associated with the public health, safety, and welfare. This includes off-site improvements which are reasonably related to access for essential services, including but not limited to, fire and police protection (Sections 9-1105.6, 9-1104.1.A, 4-3010.D) . The City of •Renton will be responding to these demands for services and, there- fore, the recommendation by the various city departments, adopted by the Examiner, was to require improvement of SE 72nd Street prior to constructing dwelling units upon those two lots (Lots 1 and 2) . The only access to these two lots is via a circuitous route outside of Renton and then via an unopened King County street right-of-way. The required improvements are necessary for the provision of adequate protection of the public health, safety, and welfare of residents and property located within Renton city limits but accessible only via the King County road system. Finally, the sewerage requirement was intended to mean that the Seattle-King County Health Department approve the sewerage method chosen. If the method you outlined in your letter, a drain field easement, is acceptable to that agency, Helmie & John Nelson • July 2, 1979 Page Two • • it would meet the Examiner's condition #2. Otherwise, Lot 3 (see attachment) cannot be developed until an acceptable means of sewerage is available. Again, I trust that this letter answers your concerns. If you have any further questions, you may contact this office for assistance.

This is a county road, with county residents presently using the street and having been permitted to build there with the present access. Oub lots L and 4 are in the City Limits - to require that we alone mig t be faced w th the improvement east -4 116th appears to us to be imposing restrictions that none of our neighbors have been required to do.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Nelson: I have had an opportunity to review your above referenced request for reconsideration and find that there is a slight possibility that the quoted language may be misconstrued. The condition was not intended to mean nor does it mean that actual installation of septic tanks must precede recordation of the plat. Under these circumstances, Condition No. 2 which reads, "Approval of septic tank installation by the King County Health Department prior to recording of the plat" shall be changed to read, "Approval by the King County Health Department of the subject parcels for future septic tank installation." The lot area you describe is correct and is in error on the report. The error does not create any problems of substance and the Examiner's decision has been corrected to reflect that change. The plat as approved by the Examiner's decision is based on the submitted plat, Exhibit #3. Any alteration in the number of lots because of action by the King County Health Department is unnecessary at this time. The short plat only becomes finalized after the appropriate recording of the plat mylar with King County. The Planning Department can be of assistance in finalizing your plat.

If this is correct, we feel t at we should likewise �-! be granted approval on this basis. Ao / j(2 J We have arranged to have the percolation tests done, but due to the the tremendous backlog of work most of these firms have this has taken time. Then, tool we do not know how much time the Health Department will require for their determination. We do not believe there is a possibility that septic tanks will not be approved. However, we discussed this possibility with Dave Clemens, Senior Planner. We asked him if one or more lots did not meet the requirement if we could combine Lots 1 and 2 into one 48,000 square feet lot and add lot 3 to our existing property containing our residences and he indicated that this would pose no problem. We would like this point clarified in line with our telephone conversation with you. Page 3 of the Report & Recommendations should be corrected to show lots 1 & 2 each 24,000 sq. fet., lot 3, 9600 sq. feet. The requirements for road improvements seem to be quite stringent and costly, much greater than, those imposed upon neighboring property ling in the county. We would therefore not like to have the additional problems imposed on us on the septic tank installation. Kindly clarify this for us. Thank you.

Short Plat 357-79, W-358-79 LOCATION: Vicinity of 2224 N.E. 50th Street. • SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Applicant requests approval of a proposed four-lot short plat for future residential use. A waiver of the required off-site improvements is also sought. SUMMARY OF ACTION: Planning Department Recommendation: Approval with restrictive covenants. Hearing Examiner Decision: Approval with restrictive covenants. PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department preliminary report was. received by the REPORT: Examiner on June 15, 1979. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted .a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on June 19, 1979 at 9:05 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed - the Planning Department report, and the report.was entered'into the record as Exhibit #1. David Clemens, Senior Planner, reviewed' Exhibit #1, and entered the following additional exhibits into the record: Exhibit #2: Short Plat as submitted- Exhibit #3: Short Plat with staff comments The Examiner asked the applicant if she concurred. in Exhibit #1. Responding was: Helmie Nelson 2224 N.E. 50th Street Renton, WA 98055 • Mrs. Nelson indicated concurrence in the recommendations contained in the report. The _ • Examiner inquired whether septic tanks or sewers are proposed to serve the upper two lots, Lots 1 and 2. Mrs. Nelson indicated that a septic system is currently proposed. The Examiner inquired if water service is available to Lots 1 and 2. Mrs. Nelson advised that water service would be furnished by Water District 107 although she was uncertain of the size of the existing lines. The Examiner inquired regarding incidence of slippage or erosion on the slopes adjoining the property containing Lots 1 and 2. Mr. Clemens and the applicant advised that the property in question reflects a stable condition. The Examiner requested testimony.in support of the application. There was no response. He then requested testimony in opposition to the request. Responding was: Gail Baumgartner 7425 114th S.E. Renton, WA 98055 Ms. Baumgartner was affirmed by the Examiner. She stated her concern regarding increased traffic resulting from the proposal onto N.E. 50th Street, a narrow roadway, and inquired if sewers would be installed on the site. The Examiner asked the applicant if her existing residence is served by sewer or septic system. Mrs. Nelson advised the existence of a septic tank. The Examiner requested further testimony in opposition. .__There_was no response. He then requested general comments. Responding was: • Sh. P1. 357-79 Page Two James Hart 11055 S.E. 72nd Renton, WA 98055 Mr. Hart advised the existence of a discrepancy on the short plat map which includes a portion of S.E. 72nd Street north of the proposal in the Renton city limits, and clarified that the roadway is contained within King County boundaries. Therefore, he indicated, approval of a waiver of off-site improvements may not be within the city's jurisdiction. Mr. Hart stated that .an application for vacation of S.E. 72nd Street is currently underway in King County, although the applicant has not indicated support in the request. He noted that off-site improvements have not been provided in other recent developments in the area and the roadway is consequently deteriorating. Referencing Section F.1 of Exhibit #1 regarding water and sewer service, Mr. Hart clarified that existing water lines on S.E. 72nd Street are private, a large water main on S.E. 50th Street provides service to his residence, and an existing 8-inch sewer line in Lake Washington Boulevard cannot accommodate additional service until a new trunk line is Installed. The Examiner inquired if Mr. Hart's property is served by septic tank and whether he is aware of any problems with septic tanks in the area. Mr. Hart advised that his property is served by a septic tank and he is aware of only one septic problem which has occurred to a new residence located on the corner of Lake Washington Boulevard and N.E. 50th Street. Referencing previous comments regarding participation-iri the vacation of N.E. 72nd Street, Mrs. Nelson clarified that she had withdrawn her support of the street vacation upon. discovery that an adjacent property owner was not participating, and denial of access to Lots 1 and 2 would occur. She stated that the vacation ordinance currently under, consideration.by King County would vacate the portion of S.E. 72nd Street from Lake Washington Boulevard to 112th Avenue S.E. , but properties located between Tracts 145 and 146 would not be included because at least 50% of the abutting property owners had not agreed to participate. The Examiner inquired whether the roadway is a street right-of-way or an easement, and whether the public would retain easement rights to use the street if vacated. Although Mr. Clemens was uncertain, he presumed that S.E. 72nd Street is an existing right-of-way at the present time. He indicated that in most cases the only rights which would remain as a result of a street vacation would be for the purpose of public utilities, although King County procedure may differ. Mr. Hart advised that upon approval of a vacation in King County, individual property owners assume title to 30 feet of the land although dedication of five feet on each side of the centerline is requested for future installation of water and sewer lines. He also stated that any future easement or access on that property must be accomplished separately and must be addressed at the time of the street vacation. The Examiner noted that if the street remains a public right-of-way, access is available to residents, and the City of Renton may or may not have the authority to waive off-site improvements on a roadway in King County. Mr. Clemens agreed to research the matter and receive clarification from representatives of King County and the City Attorney. The Examiner stated that resolution of the matter may require more than the normal 14-day period allowed the Examiner for issuance of a decision, and asked the applicant if she objected to extension of the time period to 30 days. The applicant indicated her . concurrence in the request. The Examiner requested further comments. Since there were none, the hearing on File No. Short Plat 357-79 and W-358-79 was closed. by the Examiner at 9:35 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS' & DECISION: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: • 1. The request is for approval of a residential four-lot short plat of +5 acres and a waiver of off-site improvements subject to a covenant for future installation. 2. The Planning Department report sets forth the issues, applicable policies and provisions, findings of fact, and departmental recommendations in this matter, and is hereby attached as Exhibit #1 and incorporated in this report by reference as set forth in full therein. 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971, R.C.W. 43.21.C. , as amended, the subject proposal was determined to be exempt by Gordon Y. Ericksen, responsible official. 4.. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development. y y Sh. P1. 357-79 Page Three 5. The proposal is compatible with the required setbacks, lot coverage and height requirements of Section 4-729(D) of Title IV, Ordinance No. 1628; Code of General Ordinances. 6. The subject property is located in the far north section of the City of Renton in the vicinity .of 2224 N.E. 50th Street. The lot is bounded on three sides by King County. • 7. The- applicant proposes dividing the subject property into four lots. Three' of the proposed lots would contain 9,600 square feet each. Two of these, Lots 1 and 2, would be located along the northernmost portion.of the subject property. The third, Lot 3, would be located along_ N.E. 50th Street at the extreme southwest corner of the subject property. The fourth remaining lot, #4, contains the applicant's current residence and will be over four acres in size. • 8. Lots 3 and 4 will both front on N.E. 50th Street. The other• two lots will front on S.E. 72nd Street, an unopened (dirt and gravel) King County street right-of-way. • ,There is currently. no sewerage available and Lots 1 and 2 are along a private water main. The applicant proposes septic tanks for the three undeveloped lots. The developed Lot 4 has an existing septic system. • 9. The topography of the site rises from south to north at an average slope of 16.5%. The northernmost lots are located about 4/5 of the way back on the subject parcel and high up on a bluff overlooking the remainder of the lot and with views of Lake Washington. 10. The upper portion of the subject property is heavily wooded with a variety of vegetation. 11. The applicant's existing residence and some accessory buildings are located in the north central area of the subject property. • The area is generally developed with scattered, large lot, single family residences. 12. Testimony, other than the applicant's, centered around the probable increase in traffic and the availability of water and whether or not the Renton Hearing Examiner had the jurisdiction to waive off-site improvements on a King County street. 13. Lots 1 and 2 are each adjacent to other developed lots which use the unimproved dirt and gravel road for access. There are no off-site improvements in the area. There has been a request to have this portion of S.E. 72nd Street vacated. Such action would cut off access to the applicant's proposed northerly lots and require private easement arrangements. Without the applicant's support the vacation will probably not be successful. The applicant has requested a waiver for off-site improvements along S.E. 72nd Street pursuant to Section 9-1105.6.B. 14.. The plat map submitted by the applicant does nott -indicate the right-of-way for S.E. 72nd Street which is neither opened nor vacated at present. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The subject proposal is consistent. with. the Comprehensive Plan which designates this area as suitable for single family residential development. In addition, the proposal is compatible with, the subject property's zoning which is G-9600. The proposed lots either meet or exceed' the district's minimum lot area requirements. 2. At present there are no off-site improvements along S.E. 72nd Street and the present street is no more than a narrow dirt and gravel roadway. Therefore, Lots 1 and 2, which need access via S.E. 72nd Street, should not be developed until the roadway is opened and improved. The lack of improvements, though, should not stop the proposed subdivision which is consistent with land use in the area. The applicant should therefore be permitted to subdivide the subject property subject to covenants to install the off-site improvements prior to development. 3. Because the frontage of Lots 1 and 2 lie along a King County right-of-way, the Examiner believes that the issue of jurisdiction for the issuance of a waiver from the requirements of off-site improvements is valid. Therefore, the waiver shall . be subject to the needs and requirements of King County in addition to those conditions laid out in_ Conclusion N• o. 2, that is, S.E. 72nd Street is to be improved at the •request of King County or upon development of Lots 1 and 2, whichever occurs first. Sh. -r.. 357-79 Page Four 4. The approval of this short plat will be conditioned on the prior approval of the King County Health Department of the plans for septic tanks. DECISION: Exhibit #3 and the waiver of off-site improvements are approved subject to the following conditions: 1. A restrictive covenant requiring installation of off-site improvements along S.E. 72nd Street under the following circumstances and in the following manner: a. By participation in any future LID instituted by or on behalf of King County for the improvement of S.E. 72nd Street; or • b. Installation of off-site improvements along the length of S.E. 72nd Street from its intersection at 116th Street S.E. to the subject property prior to the issuance of building permits for Lots 1 and 2. The earlier of these occurrences, "a" or "b", would be controlling. The restrictive covenant shall also require future participation in an LID on N.E. 50th Street for off-site improvements. 2. Approval of septic tank installation by the King County Health Department prior to recording of the plat. 3. Correction of the plat survey to indicate the existence of the non-vacated S.E. 72nd Street right-of-way. ORDERED THIS 27th day of June, 1979. attitj Fred J.

This deferral of the off site improvements should be incorporated into covenants to be recorded as a condition precedent to the approval of the short plat. Of course, once the property is annexed to the City, the Board of Public Works would have jurisdiction to consider an appropriate application for deferral of the off site improvements at that time.

NELSON Dear Mr. Rawsthorne : The City of Renton is considering a short plat application located wholly within the city of Renton but abutting a public right-of-way within King County. We have attached the staff report on this application as well as a copy of the short plat. As you will note in the reconai;endation, we are recommending that the improvements to S .E. 72nd be required but be allowed to be installed at a future time by local improvement district or upon development of the lots. We would appreciate your cowirents on this proposal and, if you would please specify, the precise improvements which King County would require in this case. The City of Renton' s standards for a similar street would be a 36 foot curb-to-curb street section with paving, sidewalks , under- ground storm drainage, and similar improvements . This matter is under consideration by the Hearing Examiner, who must make a decision within thirty days of the hearing , which was held on June 19 , 1979 . We would, therefore , appre- ciate your conmients as quickly as possible so they may be incorporated into the record of this action. If you have any questions , please feel free to contact us .

NELSON 4 At the public hearing for this proposed short plat, the question was raised as to whether the City of Renton could require off-site public improvements on a public right-of-way wholly within King County. The public right-of-way in question provides the only access to two of the lots within the short plat . Based upon the need for safe and adequate access for the property owners and public safety vehicles , if required, it would appear reasonable that the City should require off-site improvements for this right-of-way (9-1105 . 6) . Due to the location of this right-of-way within King County, the short plat application is being referred to the King County Public Works Department for recommendation as to the specific street improvements which should be installed. As a part of the short plat application, the applicant also requested a waiver of improvements (9-1105 . 6.B) , which grants the hearing Examiner the ability to either waive or set appropriate time limits for the installation of improvements . Assuming that the City in its best interest has required off-site improvements , it would appear that this section also provides the opportunity for the hearing Examiner to either waive or set different time limits on the required improvements. The staff recommendation at the hearing was consistent with other actions where the plat abuts a street within the City, which would be to require future installation of the improvements by Local Improvement District or at the time of development of the lots. Therefore , we feel that a. The City of Renton can require public improvements. b. The public improvements should be consistent with the requirements of King County. 4 ` Dan Kellogg, Assistant City Attorney June 19 , 1979 Page Two c. The Hearing Examiner may set the installation of those improvements at a future time. Please review the above and indicate whether you agree with our conclusions.
