PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting approval of an administrative variance from the sign provisions of the Urban Design Regulations, Minimum Standards for Districts 'C' and 'D' (RMC 4-3-lOOJ.1.e). The subject site is located at 4431 NE 4th Street in the Commercial Arterial (CA) Zone and Urban Design Overlay District 'D'. The applicant is proposing a freestanding ground-related monument sign which would be 10-feet above finished grade. RMC 4-3-lOOJ.l.e outright permits freestanding ground-related signs limited to 5-feet above finished grade, including the support structure. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance for height in excess of the specified standard. I c. EXHIBITS: The following exhibits were entered into the record: Exhibit 1: Yellow File containing application, proof of posting and publication, and other documentation pertinent to this request Exhibit 2: Site Plan {Tube Art Group, Sheet 3 of 28, dated January 27, 2010) Exhibit 3: Site Plan -Closer View {Tube Art Group, Sheet 4 of 28, dated January 27, 2010) Exhibit 4: Sign Elevation (Tube Art Group, Sheet 1 of 3, dated March 2, 2010) Exhibit 5: Photo representation of proposed sign (Tube Art Group, Sheet 2 of 28, dated January 27, 2010) Exhibit 6: Zoning Map (Sheet F6 Wl/2) I D. FINDINGS: Having reviewed the written record in the matter, the City now makes and enters the following: 1. Request: The applicant has requested approval of an Administrative Variance from the allowed 5-foot height limit for freestanding ground-related monument signs in Urban Design District 'D' {RMC 4-3-lOOJ.l.e). The request is for a freestanding ground-related monument sign which would be 10-feet in height (Exhibit 4). The proposed project would be located at 4431 NE 4th Street in the Commercial Arterial (CA) Zone. [All CA zoned properties in the City of Renton are within Urban Design overlay District 'D' .] 2. Administrative Variance: The applicant's administrative variance submittal materials comply with the requirements necessary to process a variance. The applicant's site plan and other project drawings are provided as Exhibits 2 through 5. 3. Existing Land Use: North -NE 4th Street and multi-family residential {CA zoning) South -Single-family residential (CA zoning) East -Bremerton Avenue NE and commercial (CA zoning) West -Vacant and U.S. Post Office (CA zoning) 4. Zoning: The site is located in the Commercial Arterial {CA) Zone. 5. Topography: The site is primarily flat. LUAl0-005, V-A Oty of Renton Department of Commu KEY PLAZA SIGN VARIANCE Report of March 3, 2010 , Economic Development 1ministrative Variance Report & Decision LUAlD-005, V-A Page 3 of6 6. Lots and Building Size: The project site consists of one lot with a 4,081 square foot building. However, the proposed project is a freestanding ground-related monument sign. I E. CONSISTENCY WITH VARIANCE CRITERIA: Section 4-9-2508.5.a lists 4 criteria that the Planning Director is asked to consider, along with all other relevant information, in making a decision on an Administrative Variance application. These include the following: The Planning Director shall have authority to grant an administrative variance upon making a determination, in writing, that the conditions specified below have been found to exist: a. That the applicant suffers undue hardship and the variance is necessary because of special circumstances applicable to subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings of the subject property, and the strict application of the Zoning Code is found to deprive subject property owner of rights and privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and under identical zone classification: The applicant contends that the success of tenants in Key Plaza is to have good visibility and an identity to passing vehicular traffic. Further, the applicant contends that a 5-foot high monument sign as required by City Code would put the Key Plaza property at a disadvantage compared to retail establishments in the immediate surrounding vicinity which predominantly have much taller pole signs. Staff agrees that the applicant suffers an undue hardship due to location of the site and its surroundings. Vehicle drivers travelling on NE 4th Street have been accustomed to pole signs directing them to driveways and businesses and there may be greater difficulty in seeing shorter signs. Intent for a taller sign indicating the location of Key Bank Plaza was conveyed in the initial discussions on the project, however, subsequent Code changes preclude such a sign and limit ground-related monument signs in this area to 5-feet in height. The proposed sign (see Exhibit S) is compatible with and complements the existing building on site (including the use of brick on the sign base) while providing a reasonable compromise between a 5-foot ground-related sign and the much taller pole signs which exist in the vicinity along NE 4th Street. b. That the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which subject property is situated: The applicant contends that the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity because the proposed freestanding ground-related monument sign, while taller than the height specified in the current Code, is significantly shorter than pole signs in the vicinity. Staff agrees that the granting of the variance for a 10-foot high ground-related monument sign in this instance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which it would be situated. The proposed sign is much shorter than pole signs identifying business in the vicinity. Such pole signs were installed prior to the effective date of the Code provisions specifying a height limit of 5-feet. LUAl0-005, V-A City of Renton Department of Commt KEY PLAZA SIGN VARIANCE Report of March 3, 2010 I Economic Development fministrative Variance Report & Decision LUAllJ.-005, V-A Page 4 of 6 c. That approval shall not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon uses of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated: The applicant contends that approval of the variance request will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the property is situated because the existing freestanding signs in the vicinity are taller than the proposed sign. Staff agrees that the approval of the proposed sign would not constitute a grant of special privilege in this case. Pole signs identifying businesses in the surrounding area used on similar lots are significantly taller than the proposal. Other proposed similarly designed signs in similar circumstances would likely be granted a variance. d. That the approval as determined by the Planning Director is a minimum variance that will accomplish the desired purpose: The applicant contends that the request to exceed the allowable height of a freestanding ground-related sign in Urban Design District 'D' is the minimum variance needed in order to maintain high visibility ofthe businesses on this site. Staff supports the request as the minimum variance in that the height of the proposed sign creates a reasonable sign to complement and enhance the existing structure on the project site while providing necessary visibility to vehicle drivers along NE 4th Street. A shorter sign would not provide for visibility, while a taller sign would not be necessary for visibility. The proposed sign is consistent with the current character of the surrounding area. Provided that the proposed sign is designed as indicated in the submitted plans (Exhibits 2, 3, and 4) staff recommends approval of the variance request. I F. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The subject site is located at 4431 NE 4th Street within the Commercial Arterial (CA) Zone and Urban Design District 'D'. 2. The CA Zone and Urban Design District 'D' allow freestanding ground-related monument signs which are no more than 5-feet in height. The applicant is proposing a freestanding ground- related sign which is 10-feet in height as depicted on Exhibit 4, Sign Elevation. 3. The analysis of the proposal according to variance criteria is found in the body of the Staff Report. 4. The proposed sign height variance meets the four criteria to be considered in making a decision on a variance request as specified in RMC 4-9-250B5.a. Special circumstances apply to the subject site which impose undue limitations on the property; the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated; the granting of the variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon the use of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is located; and the approval of the variance request would be the minimum variance necessary to accomplish the desired purpose.

WAl0-005, V-A City of Renton Department of Commu KEY PLAZA SIGN VARIANCE Report of March 3, 2010 : Economic Development ministrative Variance Report & Decision WAl0-005, V-A Page 6 of 6 APPEAL: This administrative land use decision will become final if not appealed in writing to the Hearing Examiner on or before 5:00 PM on March 17, 2010. An appeal of the decision must be filed within the 14-day appeal period (RCW 43.21.C.075(3); WAC 197-11-680). Appeals to the Examiner are governed by City of Renton Municipal Code Section 4-8-110. Additional information regarding the appeal process may be obtained from the Renton City Clerk's office, Renton City Hall -7th Floor, (425) 430-6510. Appeals must be filed in writing, together with the required fee to: Hearing Examiner, City of Renton, 1055 South Grady Way, Renton, WA 98057. THE APPEARANCE OF FAIRNESS DOCTRINE: provides that no ex pa rte (private one-on-one) communications may occur concerning the land use decision. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial decision, but to Appeals to the Hearing Examiner as well. All communications after the decision/approval date must be made in writing through the Hearing Examiner. All communications are public record and this permits all interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the evidence in writing. Any violation of this doctrine could result in the invalidation of the appeal by the Court. EXPIRATION: The variance(s) approval will expire two (2) years from the date of decision. A variance one (1) year extension may be requested pursuant to RMC 4-9-2508.17. WAl0-005, V-A en 7' n w m ~ .c:'. ---< "; --u "' r 0 t,. ~ N t,.

Scope: The current 61,099 square foot site zoned commercial is undergoing development with one (1) single story 4081 square foot bank building (currently built) and one (1) 13,717 square foot three story parking/commercial/office building (proposed) and we are intending to install one 10'- 0" tall x 15'-0" wide overall size double-faced, internally illuminated, center ID sign with the center name and tenant panels below. The sign is designed to compliment the plaza with a decorative trellis across the top and brick piers that match the building's brick. Around the sign will be decorative landscaping. Justification: 1-The applicant suffers an undue hardship and the variance is necessary for the success of the tenants in Key Plaza to have good visibility and an identity to passing traffic. The current limit of 5' for monument signs will put Key Plaza at a disadvantage to compared to the surrounding retail plazas which have much taller and larger ID signs. There are at least 10 much larger pylon signs with in five blocks of the location to the East and West. With out this sign the prospective tenants will be at a competitive disadvantage to those in the surrounding commercial areas. 2-The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties in the vicinity or the zone in which the property is located because the sign we are proposing is significantly smaller than all signs at surrounding commercial properties. 3-Approving the variance requested will not grant any special privilege to the applicant that is inconsistent with the limitations placed upon the other properties in the vicinity or zone, as all the surround commercial properties currently have much larger signs. 4-The approval, as determined by the Reviewing Official of the request for the additional 5' of height to 10' will not match the visual impact of the surrounding commercial sites signage but it will allow much better visibility and allow the addition of the tenants to be included on the sign. Based on the needs of the tenants (current and prospective) and the surrounding signage we feel this proposed variance for the Center ID sign is the minimum size which is necessary to adequately identify Key Plaza and the tenants in the plaza. Thank you for the opportunity to present our case and we appreciate your attention to the needs of the landlord and the tenants of Key Plaza.
