SPECIAL Municipal Court Judge Terry Jurado and Municipal Court Services Director Joe
PRESENTATIONS McGuire presented the 2007 annual report of the Renton Municipal Court. Mr.
Municipal Court: 2007 Annual McGuire reported that over 200 people per day were screened at the security
Report station,preventing numerous weapons from entering the court area. He stated
that the court is preparing and training for the new Photo Enforcement Program
which will start on June 1. Approximately 25 warning notices per day have
been issued during the warning period that began on May 1.
Mr. McGuire reported that the expense for interpreters increases each year. The
Renton Municipal Court joined a consortium of ten South King County courts
in order to garner partial reimbursement in the form of state funding for
interpreters used in court proceedings, and the funds will be divided based on
the percentage of interpreter use in each court. He explained how the interpreter
system works,noting that the courts are working together to achieve an
improved efficient and cost effective process.
Reviewing the expenditures and revenues, Mr. McGuire stated that the court
exceeded its budget by $151,060, and the major cause of the overage was the
public defense contract payment for increased filings. He pointed out that the
number of cases filed in 2007, a total of 17,000, was the highest in ten years.

TO: Bonnie Walton, City Clerk
FROM: John Hobson, Wastewater Engineer(ext. 7279) 9
SUBJECT: Earlington Sanitary Sewer Interceptor Bid
Award
The Planning/Building/Public Works Department has reviewed the bids submitted for the
Earlington Sanitary Sewer Interceptor project and recommends that the bid be awarded to
R.L. Alia Company. We are requesting that an agenda bill for"Council Concur"be
prepared for the May 12, 2008, Council Meeting.
The bid opening was on Tuesday, May 6, 2008. There were 7 bids received. There was
an irregularity in the second low bidder's bid (Construct Co.) concerning bid item 9. The
"words" and"unit price" columns were filled-in incorrectly but the "total amount"
column reflected the amount that the contractor intended. Therefore, Construct Co.'s bid
• remains as the second low bid and R.L. Alia Company's bid remains as the low bid. The
low bidder is R.L. Alia Company., with a bid of$737,894.19. The engineer's estimate
was $783,703.46.
The project budget amount is $800,000. The low bid is within the amount budgeted.
The project will install approximately 2000 linear feet of 15"diameter sanitary sewer
pipeline.

The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Andrea Petzel, Senior Planner, Development
Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The project is located at 1917 and
1925 Shattuck Ave S. There are two parcels of land that are proposed to be subdivided into 9 lots.
Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance—Mitigated with 10 mitigation
measures. No appeals were filed.
The property is located in the R-8 zone and the Residential Single-Family Comprehensive Plan Land Use
designation. The net density was calculated to be 7.14 dwelling units per acre, which is within the density
range required.
All lots appear to be in compliance with the required lot width, depth and size standards. All proposed lots have
enough area to meet the building setback requirements for the new residences. This would be reviewed at the
time of building permit review. One existing house on proposed Lot 10 would be removed, along with several
detached accessory structures. The existing house on Lot 1 would remain and currently meets setback
requirements for the R-8 zone. The height and lot coverage of the new residences would be verified at the time
of application for building permits. All lots have adequate room.
A detailed landscape plan would be submitted with final plat approval, and the revised landscape plan should
address the 5-foot planting strip, which should extend the full width of Lots 1 and 2, and the length of the right- •
of-way along Shattuck Ave S.
An internal 26-foot wide private access easement would serve Lots 7, 9, and 10. Five feet of right-of-way
dedication is required along Shattuck Avenue S to provide half of the required 50-foot right-of-way. Street
improvements along Shattuck Avenue S will also be required.
The site is situated on a plateau at the top of a very steeply sloped hillside. The east one-quarter of the property
slopes at 13 percent from its frontage along Shattuck toward the west. The center half slopes from south to
north at an average of about 20 percent. The steepest area of the property is on the west side and in the
northwest corner, which will be part of a Native Growth Protection Easement.
Vegetation on the site consists primarily of mature forest with a mixture of deciduous and evergreen trees.
There are approximately 22 significant trees on the site, the applicant proposes to clear the site but will retain 11
of the trees and these must be indicated on the final landscape plan.
Traffic, Fire and Park Mitigation Fees have been imposed by the Environmental Review Committee.
Given the steep slopes and drainage issues on surrounding properties, the 2005 King County Surface Water
Design Manual is required for both detention and water quality.
The site is within the City of Renton's water service area and sewer service area. There are existing water and
sewer mains that will serve this site.
Tom Touma, 6632 S 19151 Place, Ste. E-102,Kent, WA 98032 stated that he is the engineer and land surveyor •
that prepared the plat for the applicant. He did not receive notification of the removal of Lot 8 until last week,
he believed Lot 8 should not have been omitted.

The Examiner stated that it was too late to raise the issue of the loss of a lot. It was not challengeable at this
time. The appeal period for the ERC recommendations expired on February 25.
A 5-minute recess was taken to determine if notification was sent to Mr.Touma in a timely manner.
Glen Ford, 1925 Shattuck Avenue S,Renton, 98055 stated that he is one of the applicants and that due to his
being in the hospital,he did not receive the letter until he had returned home. He called the City and he was
told that he could raise his questions at the public hearing. There was no chance to dispute the removal of Lot 8.
The Examiner stated that the letter was mailed, and that Mr.Touma and Mr.Niemi did receive their copies in a
timely manner. He further stated that they could proceed today with the plat as proposed or the applicants could
withdraw their permission to move forward and try getting the ERC to issue a new decision. Costs and timing
would weigh heavily on the decision the applicants made today.
Mr. Watts stated that the applicants could apply for another plat, there could be two separate Preliminary Plats
for the same property. There appears to be no advantage to canceling today, it would not assist or hinder
anything that would be looked at on the second Plat application. He did question the ability for the ERC to
come up with a new SEPA decision. The analysis has already been done on this plat, there most likely would
not be any new information that would allow for a new SEPA decision.
Mr. Touma continued that another issue seems to concern where the water goes. Utility plans have been
designed for this plat and were submitted to staff for review. In the cul-de-sac there will be a tank that would
• pick up all the water and discharge it into an underground conveyance pipe and take it up to 19th Street.
Presently run off from the site is via a sheet flow and is concentrated in about the middle of both parcels. That is
where the water sheet flows across the property to the north. They are proposing that the run off from the street
and future homes would all be tied to the storm drainage into the tank and out to the north. Public Works stated
that use of the 1998 manual would be based on whether there was detention or no detention, and it was
determined that no detention would be required and therefore, it would be okay to use the 1998 manual. If
detention was needed, it was requested that the 2005 manual be used. The report showed that detention would
not be required, only water quality,but because the asphalt was more than 5,000 square feet,water quality
would be required and that is what they have provided. A profile for that area was submitted showing the water
conveyance system and what it would look like. They will be doing some filling around Lots 1-6 and part of
Lot 7 in order to be able to pick up the roof drainage and take it into the low point of the catch basin.
He now understands that the water utility plans should be designed based on the 2005 manual,but when they
designed the layout of the plat, they designed it based on the fact that if there was no detention required then
they would not have to use 2005, if detention was required then they would use the 2005 manual.
The Examiner stated that the ERC, in considering whatever information was submitted by Mr. Touma and the
geotech information that was submitted, determined that the 2005 manual for both detention and water quality
facility would be used. The City has various standards and uses different manuals.
The neighbors are also concerned about the retaining wall and grading that will occur on the north side of the
site. There also may be some people concerned about the road cuts along the south side of the site.
Mr. Touma continued stating that there is an existing wall that runs to the west edge of the cul-de-sac. That was
built in conjunction with Valley Vue Estates development. They are looking at the possibility of a two-foot wall
• in the south end of the property. On the north end there would be no wall,they would grade it to a 3:1 slope.
Mr. Ford stated that the Examiner suggested that the owners accept the plan as submitted,but then afterwards he
could have a discussion with the Examiner as to what to do next.

The Examiner stated that it was •
not with himself,but that Mr.Ford could talk with Ms. Henning or some other
staff member. He further stated that the property currently belongs to Mr. Ford and the City cannot do anything
with it, including a plat over it if he is not interested in doing that.
Discussion was had between the Examiner and Mr. Ford regarding potential use of Lot 8 that the ERC removed
from the original Preliminary Plat application. The Native Growth Protection Easement standards would still be
in force and it would depend what would be allowed.
Jeff Sebak, 332 South 20"'Place,Renton 98055 stated that he is the representative/president of the Homeowners
Association for Valley Vue Estates. He lives south of the proposed project. They do want to be and have good
neighbors, they are present today to discuss their concern over certain water issues, as well as some new
concerns that have come forward during today's testimony.
Mr. Touma stated the he was going to put a wall in from Lot 1 to Lot 4 of the proposed project, approximately
two feet in height. There currently is a wall that ranges anywhere from three feet to six feet, which then leads to
exactly what proportion the slope is,the City says it is 16 feet and Mr. Touma stated that it was 15 feet. There
presently are drains behind Lots 1 and 4 of Valley Vue that go out towards the back of that property. They want
to make sure those drains are addressed, some of the water off the roofs of 1 through 4 and perhaps partially 5
go down into those drains. They have had problems with those drains and they want to make sure that when the
new houses are built, the owners will not have the same type of problems. They are concerned how the drainage
system for this new development would or could affect the homeowners in Valley Vue.
Further, they are concerned with protecting their existing retaining wall that runs the entire length of the north •
property line of Valley Vue. The wall at it's lowest is approximately 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 feet and continues to go up,
by Lot 2 it is over six feet tall. They want to make sure that the road will not damage that wall. They are also
concerned about water pressure, the pressure has decreased as other homes are built.
There are some significantly tall trees that are located along the property line approximately where the existing
garage is located. There are concerns that these tall trees would be compromised. They are large enough to
cause serious damage. They were also concerned about the possibility of streetlights going in.
Ms. Petzel pointed out the trees on the Tree Retention Plan and stated that they were going to be removed.
Neil Watts, Director, Development Services stated that the building footprints for Lots 5 and 6 are sufficient size
to build a two-story, single family home.
ERC requirement was for compliance with the 2005 manual, which would require detention. The detention
vault would be considerably bigger than what is currently shown on the plan. There seems to be some
misunderstanding about what a pre-application review is. It is not an approval of any type, it is a review,the
applicant is informed about what submittal requirements would be, and they point out major problems with the
project. On this project earlier pre-apps were done for two separate short plats, the difficulties were pointed out
in trying to do that.
The drainage requirements are very important. This whole neighborhood has issues with drainage, it does not
have good percolation here and there are many challenges with construction in the neighborhood. The storm
line that is going to connect out into South 19th Street should be constructed as part of the erosion control plan.
As the site is cleared and temporary erosion control collection ponds are built there needs to be a place for that •
to discharge to. That line would need to be constructed early in the project. He also requested that the
preliminary plat be conditioned on having all the lots tightlined to the new storm drainage system, and that a
Ford-Niemi Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-08-001,PP, ECF
April 7, 2008
• Page 5
condition be added for swales along the north side of the property. There is sufficient fall to make the system
work. The storm line would be fairly deep and they need to be picking up the runoff.
The Native Growth Protection Easement was required as part of the SEPA conditions by the Environmental
Review Committee that would preclude being able to build on Lot 8 at a future date.
Any short plat or plat over four lots does require streetlights. There would probably be a minimum of one
streetlight at the entrance at Shattuck and the new street and probably two to three streetlights on the interior.
The new street design would allow for the street to be 6-7 feet away from the south property line. There would
also be a curb on the south side of the new street.
Any pipe discharges that come onto this site would need to be picked up and tightlined into the new storm
system being built. It would not require additional detention,but would affect the design of the vault.
Mr. Touma stated that he had no problems with Mr. Watts's recommendations for the north side treatment of
walls,they will include his recommendations into the design.
The right-of-way that has been provided for in the plat for the cul-de-sac was 43 feet, Mr. Watts indicated that if
it could be done at 45 feet it would give more room on the south side to be able to have a small area and not
encroach on the property to the south.
• When this plat was designed, it was based on the information given by the staff. The 1998 manual reflects what
was submitted to the staff and what they approved.
The Examiner stated that the pre-application gives guidance but does not approve the plat. This hearing is held
and the public is invited to come and testify or give information, the Hearing Examiner then makes a decision.
The 2005 manual plus other information comes out with recommendations that must be done before the plat can
be approved. Even what the staff recommends can be changed along the line until the Examiner and the Mayor
and City Council sign the plat certificate. The developer needs to be prepared for change and must be flexible.
Karen Uitting, 1940 Shattuck Ave S., Renton 98055 stated that she lives east of Lot 2, across Shattuck Avenue,
above the property. She understands that they are going to be filling in the property and would like to know if
there is going to be a height restriction on these homes. She has a view lot and does not want to lose that.
Mr. Watts stated that finished floor elevations are approximately 140— 150 feet, the height of a single family, 2-
story structure is limited to 30 feet. That is somewhat higher than it is today. The natural contour of the land
would be increased approximately 10 feet and then the house would add an additional 30 feet plus a peak roof,
which could make it 35-40 feet finished.
The Examiner further commented that views are not always preserved,the natural contours of the site should not
be altered that much. Code does give the City the right to maintain natural topography.
Mr. Watts stated that the driving factor is getting reasonable access into the property. The road is designed at an
8% slope and it could go steeper than that,but 8% is a reasonable design. The finished floor elevations are
based off of that height.
IIIMr. Sebak asked for parking clarification for the road that will be cut in, will there be parking allowed on that
new street?

Mr. Watts stated that the right-of-way is less than the 50-foot standard requirement,but the street section that
gets built will be the standard width of 32-feet that allows parking on both sides of two lanes of traffic.
The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak,and
no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 10:40 a.m.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS &RECOMMENDATION
Having reviewed the record in this matter,the Examiner now makes and enters the following:
FINDINGS:
1. The applicant,Tom Touma for Glen Ford and Ted Niemi, filed a request for a Preliminary Plat.
2. The yellow file containing the staff report,the State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) documentation
and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit#1.
3. The ERC's review determined that a large portion of Proposed Lot 8 would be constrained by critical
areas -namely, steep slopes. The ERC required that Proposed Lot 8 be eliminated and its area be
consolidated with other steep slopes in a Native Growth Protection Area. That changes the Plat from
the initial 10-lot plat to a 9-lot plat.
4. The Environmental Review Committee(ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of •
Non-Significance -Mitigated(DNS-M). At the Public Hearing but subsequent to the time for
submitting appeals of the environmental determination the applicant and owner objected to conditions
dealing with steep slopes and stormwater requirements. The owner of that portion of the subject site
constrained by the steep slope condition objected to the loss of the proposed lot. Similarly, the ERC
imposed stormwater detention requirements governed by the 2005 King County Surface Water Design
Manual for detention and water quality. The applicant had anticipated the guidelines of the 1998
Manual wherein detention would not have been required. The owner and separate applicant indicated
that they did not receive notice of these conditions. The record appears to indicate that the normal
notices were mailed to the various parties indicating the ERC decision. Those issues are not subject to
review at this proceeding.
5. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter.
6. The subject site is located at 1917 and 1925 Shattuck Avenue South. The subject site is located on the
west side of Shattuck between South 19th and South 23rd Streets.
7. The subject site is generally rectangular. It is comprised of two separate legal lots that would be re-
platted creating a larger number of smaller lots. The two lots are aligned one behind the other rather
than side-by-side. The rear lot does have a long, approximately 300-foot pipestem,running to Shattuck.
The subject site is 2.18 acres or 94,960 square feet. The site is 600 feet deep and approximately 165
feet wide at Shattuck and 150 feet wide at the rear.
8. Two existing single-family homes are located on the subject site. The one on the western portion of the
site will be removed. The eastern home will be retained on what will be Proposed Lot 1. •
9. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as
suitable for the development of single-family homes,but does not mandate such development without
Ford-Niemi Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-08-001, PP, ECF
April 7, 2008
• Page 7
consideration of other policies of the Plan.
10. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family- 8 dwelling units/acre).
11. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1547 enacted in June 1956.
12. The subject site slopes downward to the north and west with critical slopes located in the northwest and
western areas of the subject site. The applicant initially reported critical slopes on the western portion
of the subject site and those were to be set aside in a Native Growth Protection Easement. The ERC
review found that a substantial portion of the northwesternmost proposed lot, Proposed Lot 8, also
contained slopes that met the definition of critical slopes and conditioned their DNS-M on removing all
of Proposed Lot 8 from development and requiring it be incorporated into the Native Growth area.
13. A survey showed that the subject site contains approximately 22 significant trees. The applicant
proposes preserving 50 percent of those trees or eleven trees. The subject site also does contain a
mature forest in the areas that are not currently developed with the existing homes and outbuildings.
The areas in the west will be set aside due to their critical slopes in the native growth area. In addition,
the applicant is required to provide street trees and trees on each building lot as part of code
requirements.
14. The applicant had proposed dividing the subject site into ten(10) lots. As noted above, the ERC
required that the critical slopes located in Proposed Lot 8 be protected and placed in the native growth
• area along with the most westerly slopes. That action changed the plat to a nine(9)-lot plat. The staff
report and lot numbering does not reflect this condition. To avoid potential confusion,this office will
refer to the plat as a nine-lot plat and renumber the lots from Proposed Lot 1 to Proposed Lot 9. The
lots are generally aligned along the north side of a new east-west road and cul-de-sac. Proposed Lots 1
and 2 both front Shattuck with Proposed Lot 1 in the northeast corner of the plat. Proposed Lots 3 to 6
then run east to west along the north side of the roadway. An easement road will provide access to the
interior lots, Proposed Lot 7, 8 and 9. Proposed Lot 7 would be oriented in a north-south orientation.
Proposed Lots 8 and 9 would be located at the rear or westernmost portion of the lot and they would
both be oriented east to west. Proposed Lot 9 would be at the southwest corner of the developed plat.
15. The proposed lots are in the main rectangular and each appears capable of sustaining a detached single
family home. Proposed Lots 5 and 6 are on the bulb of the cul-de-sac but are both of sufficient area to
allow reasonable home development according to staff.
16. Access to the subject site will be via a cul-de-sac roadway entering from Shattuck and running to the
west. It will run along the south edge of the site. An easement roadway will extend to the west from the
south edge of the cul-de-sac and provide access to three lots,Proposed Lots 7, 8 and 9. A modification
has been approved to allow a 42-foot wide right-of-way and a 45-foot diameter for the cul-de-sac. A
sidewalk would be provided along the northern edge of the road. Staff noted that there should be
sufficient room to provide a separation between the south edge of the road and the properties
immediately south of the roadway. Similarly, staff believed that a radius curve where the new road
meets Shattuck could be provided along its south edge.
17. The applicant will be required to dedicate five(5) feet along Shattuck to allow it to be widened to 50
• feet. The applicant will be required to make appropriate improvements both along Shattuck and the new
internal public roadway.
18. The density for the plat would be 7.14 dwelling units per acre after subtracting sensitive areas and
•
Ford-Niemi Preliminary Plat
File No.: LUA-08-001,PP, ECF
April 7, 2008
Page 8 •
roadways and reducing the lot count to nine lots.
19. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate
approximately 3 or 4 school age children. These students would be spread across the grades and would
be assigned on a space available basis.
20. The development will generate approximately 10 trips per unit or approximately 70 new trips for the
seven new homes(two existing homes would have generated approximately 20 trips).
21. Stormwater detention and treatment has been required by the ERC. The applicant will have to abide by
the ERC conditions which require following the criteria in the 2005 King County Stormwater Manual.
An appropriately sized tank will be provided under the street system and convey water to 19th Street,
north of the site. In addition, staff recommended additional conditions as a result of concerns expressed
by neighbors (see below)
22. Both sewer and domestic water will be provided by the City.
23. Neighbors were concerned with flooding problems in this area. They wanted assurance that
development of this site would not exacerbate those problems. Staff recommended that both erosion
control and tightlining of the stormwater system be implemented with any grading, clearing or other
development work so it immediately is effective in dealing with stormwater from this proposal. Staff
also recommended that a swale system be employed along the northern lots where grading might affect
stormwater and/or sheet flows. The system will have to be designed to accommodate offsite flows that •
now enter the subject site. There were also concerns about retaining walls or rockeries developed along
the property lines. The applicant will engineer similar structures on the subject site and observe
appropriate setbacks and cautions when working along the edges of the property.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The proposed nine-lot plat appears to serve the public use and interest. The applicant will be preserving
the steeper slopes and setting aside those critical areas in a Native Growth Protection Area. The
subdivision will permit urban infill in an area with urban services and allow the development of 7
additional homes on property now supporting only two homes.
2. There appear to be challenges in developing this site but it appears that it can be reasonably developed if
cautions and regulations are appropriately followed. As noted, the steepest slopes, those both disclosed
by the applicant and discovered by the City will be protected in a Native Growth Protection area. In
addition, staff has recommended that both immediate erosion control and stormwater control systems be
implemented as development of the subject site commences. These precautions should suitably protect
both the subject site and surrounding property.
3. In addition, staff noted that grading and engineering of slopes and retaining walls should be able to
allow development without harming adjacent property. It appears that there is sufficient room along the
south edge of the proposed roadway to allow some setback from adjacent slopes and structures. Staff
recommended the implementation of grading a swale along the north side of the plat to also protect
adjacent property from stormwater runoff In addition,the storm system will be designed to
accommodate offsite flows that now enter the subject site •
4. The ERC imposed a condition allowing development only in the dry season, which should also help
avoid creating or exacerbating stormwater problems.

• Page 9
5. The plat will provide additional housing opportunities for those wanting detached single-family homes
in an area with urban services. The development will also increase the tax base of the City, which
should help offset some of the impacts of developing the subject site. Finally, the ERC imposed
mitigation fees to help offset the impacts on parks, transportation corridors and emergency services..
6. In conclusion, the development of the subject site will clearly change the character of the site but
appears to reasonably protect critical resources and provide reasonable building lots. The plat should be
approved by the City Council.
RECOMMENDATION:

Pursuant to Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 100Gof the City's Code, request for reconsideration must be filed in
writing on or before 5:00 p.m.,April 21, 2008. Any aggrieved person feeling that the decision of the
Examiner is ambiguous or based on erroneous procedure, errors of law or fact, error in judgment, or the
discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written
request for a review by the Examiner within fourteen(14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This
request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant, and the Examiner may,
after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper.
An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 110, which requires that such appeal
be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of$75.00 and meeting other specified requirements.
Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City
Hall. An appeal must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m.,April 21,2008.
If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Covenants, the
executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Council or final processing of the file. You
may contact this office for information on formatting covenants.
The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte(private one-on-one) communications may occur
concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in
private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both
the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council.

All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all
interested parties to know the contents of the communication •
and would allow them to openly rebut the
evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court.
The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as
Appeals to the City Council.

SUBJECT: Classification for new position of Neighborhood Program
Assistant effective April 2008.
ISSUE
Should the Council approve the position classification and related salary adjustment for
one position within the City's salary schedule?
• RECOMMENDATION
Authorize classification and pay grade of one new position created as a result of the
Benson Hill Communities annexation.
BACKGROUND
One position classification must be authorized by the City Council and included within
the City budget. The Human Resources Department has completed its review of this
position and recommends the following position classification.
Neighborhood Program Assistant (Local 2170, grade a16): This position is a new
position due to the Benson Hill Annexation. Our recommendation to place this position
in grade a16 is based upon external salary data and internal equity.
Council approved this position in the Benson Hill annexation budget. However, the
salary grade approved in the annexation budget was only a placeholder, since Human
Resources had not analyzed the appropriateness of the grade and/or negotiated with Local
2170. Human Resources analyzed the position based on external salary data and internal
equity consideration, and has reviewed this position, which is covered under union
contract, with union representatives and received their concurrence with their
recommendations—subject of course to City Council approval. There is no additional
cost of implementation during FY 2008.

RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt an ordinance amending the 2008 Budget to increase the general fund budget for
Public Works Administration in the amount$14,823 in order to increase the authorization
of the Public Works Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst position from
0.75 FTE to 1.0 FTE, and decrease the street fund budget by $16,920 in order to reduce
the authorization of the Maintenance Shops Secretary I position scheduled to be filled on
July 1, 2008 from 1.0 FTE to 0.50 FTE. Authorize the Public Works Department to
increase the Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst position from 0.75 FTE to
1.0 FTE effective June 16, 2008 and to reduce the Maintenance Shops Secretary I
position from 1.0 FTE to 0.50 FTE effective July 1, 2008. Authorize the Public Works
Department to fill its Principal and Financial Administrative Analyst position
(Grade M24) at Step D of the salary schedule, effective May 16, 2008.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The Public Works Department requests adoption of an ordinance to amend the 2008
budget in order to increase the authorization of the Public Works Principal Financial and
Administrative Analyst position from 0.75 FTE to 1.0 FTE effective June 16, 2008. The
ordinance also would amend the budget in order to reduce the authorization of a
Maintenance Shops Secretary I position from 1.0 FTE to 0.50 FTE effective July 1, 2008, •
which is the proposed date of hiring this position. The Public Works Department
requests authorization to fill its Principal and Financial Administrative Analyst position
(Grade M24) at Step D of the salary schedule. City policy (300-41)requires that Council
approve the filling of vacant positions at salary ranges above Step C.
Several changes have taken place that have resulted in increasing time demands on the
Public Works Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst position. These changes
include the transfer of the assignment to run the solid waste rate model and analyze and
propose solid waste rates from the Finance and Information Services Department to the
Public Works Department starting in 2008. The change in no longer assigning financial
general ledger numbers to individual capital improvement projects and rather assigning
numbers to groups of projects has required that budgets of capital improvement projects
be tracked using an Eden-based project accounting module and reports. This change
requires that the Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst provide additional
financial assistance to the Public Works capital project managers. The position must also
provide assistance to the airport manager in preparing cash flow modeling for the airport
now that we are moving toward lease negotiations with airport tenants including The
Boeing Company. In addition to these additional assignments,the City has grown to a
population of nearly 80,000, which by sheer volume has created an additional workload
for this position. It is important to increase this 0.75 FTE position to a 1.0 FTE position
in order to keep up with the expanding work load. The position will be filled on
May 16, 2008. The City Council has approved overfilling this position for one month so •
the current incumbent may provide training for the new analyst. The proposal is to

Members of the Renton City Council

•
increase this position to a full-time position effective June 16, 2008, at the end of the
overlap period. The added cost in 2008 will be $14,823, and $29,646 annually thereafter.
Funding for the needed budget increase will be provided by reducing a full-time
Secretary I position in the Maintenance Shops to half-time, and transferring this funding
from the street fund to the general fund.
The subject Maintenance Shops Secretary I position was approved as part of the Benson
Hill Annexation budget for a July 1, 2008 hiring date. The Shops management has
reassessed their staffing needs based upon experience with calls for service from the
Benson Hill Annexation area, and also in consideration of the new Maintenance
Management program that will be brought online within the year, and which will allow
project information to be inputted directly into the maintenance management database by
the maintenance lead workers, without the need for the secretary to perform this duty.
Shops management now feels that a half-time secretary will be sufficient to handle the
incremental workload presented by the Benson Hill Annexation. Reduction of this
position from 1.0 FTE to 0.50 FTE will result in a savings of$16,920 in 2008, and an
annual savings of$33,840 thereafter. Transfer of this funding from the street fund to the
general fund will cover the costs of increasing the Principal Financial and Administrative
Analyst position from 0.75 FTE to 1.0 FTE. We believe that this change represents a
more effective and beneficial expenditure of City funds.
• As you are aware,the Public Works Department has accepted the resignation of its
current Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst. Her last day is June 12. On
April 14, 2008, City Council approved overfilling this position for 30 days for training
purposes. The Principal Financial and Administrative Analyst is a position requiring
specific and specialized knowledge and skills. The candidate we have selected to fill this
position comes to us from the City of Bellevue where her responsibilities included
running utility rate models, working with CIPs, and budget preparation and compilation.
The selected applicant best meets the requirements for the position and possesses the
desired knowledge and skill level.
The candidate has requested that the position be offered to her at Grade m24 Step D in
order to match her previous salary. We feel that her background knowledge and fit for
the position justify bringing forward this request for Council's consideration.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City of Renton would like to enter into a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement with King County
Metro in order to expedite the purchase of capital items. Interlocal Cooperative Purchasing has long
been established and encouraged in the City of Renton Policy and Procedure 250-08. Entering into this
agreement will allow the City to buy competitively using King County Metro contracts and satisfy all
of the statutory obligations for public bid. Entering into this agreement will save the City considerable
time and expense by eliminating the need to conduct its bids and advertising on the purchase of specific
items when the county has already completed this process. Instituting this agreement will provide a
quicker and more responsive delivery of materials and equipment to the City.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into a Cooperative
Purchasing Agreement with King County Metro.

FROM: Gregg Zimmerm , dministrator
STAFF CONTACT: Dave Christensen, Wastewater Utility Supervisor (ext. 7212)
SUBJECT: City Code for Sewer Service Outside City Limits
ISSUE:
Should the City Council amend Section 4-6-040C, Sewer Outside City Limits, of the City
code to limit new connections to the City's sewer system for properties outside Renton's
city limits?
• RECOMMENDATION:
Amend City Code Section 4-6-040C to limit connections outside Renton's city limits to
exclude connection for properties desiring to develop through further subdivision of their
land.
BACKGROUND:
During the past 20 years, the City has changed its policy on sewer service outside the city
limits numerous times. We have had a policy of no service without annexation, serving
outside city limits, within our service area, with no conditions, and many positions
between. The code currently allows service to all potential customers, with conditions
placed on new plats to meet our density requirements within our proposed land use.
This code has been in place since 2005, and we have given sewer availability to
approximately 12 applications, of which four have followed through to construction. The
new developments have varied in quality, and because they are not within the city limits,
certain aspects do not meet what would have been required if developed in the City.
As a result,the Administration has re-evaluated its policy on sewer outside the City and
feels it would be best to require properties that desire to develop through subdivision to
annex into the City to receive sewer service. The proposed new code would still allow
existing properties,public entities, and health emergencies,to make a connection to the
sewer system. The revised code language acknowledges existing subdivisions with
vested sewer availabilities.
Council/City Code for Sewer Outside City Limits
April 28,2008
Page 2 of 2
The resulting code change will potentially increase the demand for annexations for •
properties desiring to get City sewer service that require annexation to receive it. With
the current Liberty Annexation in the process of approvals, the quantity of requests
should be less, and the ability for currently developable properties to be able to annex
their property is also increased as a result of having our new city limits running east to
Liberty High School.
CONCLUSION:
The existing City code for sewer service outside the City needs to be revised to eliminate
sewer availability to new development outside our city limits. By requiring properties
desiring to subdivide to annex into the City prior to provision of sewer we can assure that
those developments occur fully to Renton standards.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Water Utility needs to enter into an engineering agreement with Bilfinger/Tri State Joint
Venture (BTJV), for the design for the protection of an existing City water line located under
SR-167, in the amount of$42,547.40. WSDOT is currently constructing the improvements to
1-405/1-5 to SR-169 Stage 1 Widening project(1-405 Stage 1), which includes the widening of
1-405 and SR-167. The water line can be damaged by the construction of retaining walls and by
the placement of large quantities of fill for the widening of SR-167, as part of the 1-405 Stage 1
project by WSDOT. The City is responsible to protect the water line as a condition of the utility
franchise permit issued by WSDOT in 1977.
WSDOT selected BTJV as the most qualified design-build contractor for the project through a
formal procurement process in accordance with state law RCW 47.20.785 for competitive bids for
highway construction contracts. In order for the City to meet WSDOT's construction schedule,
the Water Utility requested and received the Mayor's approval of BTJV as sole-source provider
for both the design and construction contracts for the protection of the City's water line as
allowed under City Policy 250-02, Bidding and Contracting Requirements. The Water Utility has
budgeted sufficient funds for the design contract in the 2008 Capital Improvements Project
budget for I-405 Utilities Relocation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to approve and execute the Engineering Agreement with
Bilfinger/Tri State Joint Venture for the design for the protection of an existing City water line
located under SR-167, in the amount of$42,547.40.

SUBJECT: Engineering Agreement with Bilfinger/Tri State Joint

Under SR-167
ISSUE:
Should the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to approve and execute the
11111 Engineering Agreement with Bilfinger/Tri State Joint Venture for the design for the
protection of an existing City water line under SR-167, in the amount of$42,547.40?
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to approve and execute the Engineering Agreement
with Bilfinger/Tri State Joint Venture for the design of the protection of an existing City
water line under SR-167, in the amount of$42,547.40.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
WSDOT is currently constructing the improvements to I-405/I-5 to SR-169 Stage 1
Widening project(I-405 Stage 1), which includes the widening of I-405 and SR-167.
WSDOT selected Bilfinger/Tri State Joint Venture (BTJV) as the design-builder for the
design and construction of the highway improvements.
The widening of SR-167 requires the installation of new retaining walls and placement of
roadway fills within state-owned right-of-way and over an existing 16-inch City water
line that crosses under SR-167. As part of the design responsibilities under the design-
build contract with WSDOT, BTJV's geotechnical engineers conducted soils
investigations and determined that the placement of fill materials for the widening of
SR-167 along with the construction of support piles for the retaining walls will cause the
•
Council/BTJV design contract
April 25,2008
Page 2 of 3
City's water line to settle by as much as 18 inches, will cause leaks, and may break the III
existing City's water line.
The City constructed the water line in 1977 and obtained a utility franchise permit from
WSDOT for the portion of the line within the state-owned limited access right-of-way for
SR-167. Under the permit provisions, the City has the legal obligation, at its own cost,to
remove, relocate or protect the water line, when WSDOT determines that the water line
conflicts with future highway improvements and orders the City to remove and relocate
the line. As part of the design-build contract, WSDOT has assigned and delegated its
rights under the franchise permit to BTJV regarding the City's responsibility to remove,
relocate or protect the line for the I-405 Stage 1 project. BTJV has asked the City to
provide the design and to construct the necessary improvements to protect the water line.
In order to complete the design and construction of the water line protection without
significantly delaying the I-405 Stage 1 project construction schedule,the Water Utility
requested and received the Mayor's approval to select BTJV as a sole-source provider for
the design and construction of the water line protection as allowed under City Policy
250-02, Bidding and Contracting Requirements. The Water Utility cannot meet
WSDOT's project schedule, if it were to select a consultant through the annual roster and
advertise the construction contract for competitive bids.
The rationale for the Mayor's approval to designate BTJV as a sole-source provider for
the I-405 Stage 1 project design and construction contract was:
III
• BTJV was selected by WSDOT as the most qualified design-build contractor, and
was awarded the contract for the design and construction of the I-405 Stage 1 project,
through a formal procurement process in accordance to state law RCW 47.20.785 for
competitive bids for highway construction contracts.
• BTJV is most knowledgeable with the design and construction of the protection of the
City's water line since it has completed similar designs and will start construction of
the protection of other large utilities pipelines impacted by the I-405 Stage 1 project,
such as Seattle Public Utilities' 60-inch water transmission line and Olympic Pipe
Line Company's 16-inch petroleum pipeline.
• The City will avoid potential delay claims from WSDOT and BTJV, since BTJV can
complete the design and construction for the protection of the City's water line within
the I-405 Stage 1 project schedule.
The Water Utility has budgeted sufficient funds ($100,000.00) for the design contract in
the 2008 Capital Improvements Project budget for I-405 Utilities Relocation. Upon the
completion of the design contract and the determination of the estimated construction
cost for the protection of the water line,the Water Utility will request Council's approval
of additional funding and approval for the construction contract with BTJV as the sole-
source provider.

• CONCLUSION:
The Water Utility must complete the design and construction for the protection of an
existing 16-inch water line under SR-167,which is impacted by the construction of
WSDOT's I-405/1-5 to SR-169 Stage 1 Widening project by its design-build contractor
BTJV. In order to meet the I-405 project schedule,the Water Utility has obtained the
Mayor's approval to designate BTJV as the sole-source provider for the design and
construction of the water lineP rotection, as allowed under City Policy 250-02.
Council's approval of the design contract is needed in order for BTJV to proceed with the
design for the protection of the City's water line.
