PRE 16-000640 NOTE: The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary is preliminary and non- binding and may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official City decision-makers. Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. I have completed a preliminary review of the application for Custom Pressed Tees located at 205 Logan Avenue S. The applicant is proposing to do at tenant improvement of the former Cooper Tire building at 205 Logan Avenue S. into a t-shirt shop. No exterior or parking lot improvements are proposed. WATER COMMENTS 1. Water service is provided by the City of Renton. The site is in the Valley service area in the 196’ hydraulic pressure zone. The approximate static water pressure is 68 psi at a ground elevation of 36’. 2. There is an existing 12” water main north of the site along the southern frontage of S. 2nd Street that can provide 4,300 gallons per minute (gpm). There is also a 12” water main east of the site along the western frontage of Logan Avenue S. that can provide 4,800 gpm. Reference COR Project File WTR2702181 for record drawings of both lines. 3. Below is a summary of the existing fire hydrants in the vicinity of the site. Please refer to the Fire Authority for fire hydrant requirements. a.

At the northeast corner of the intersection of Logan Avenue S. and S. 2nd Street approximately 90 feet northeast of the site’s northeastern corner (COR Facility ID HYD- S-00088). c. Along the northern frontage of S. 2nd Street, approximately 65 feet northwest of the site’s northwestern corner (COR Facility ID HYD-S-00197). 4. There is an existing 1” meter serving the existing building. This meter can be reused for the renovated building. Installation of a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) in an above ground heated enclosure per COR Standard Plan 350.2 is required behind the meter. The RPBA may be located inside the building if drainage for the relief valve is provided. Please coordinate with the City water utility plan reviewer if you propose to locate the RPBA inside the building. 5. The RPBA installation is permitted through an over the counter plumbing permit through the building department. Please contact the building department for particular plumbing permit application questions. 6. As the existing water service will be reused, no water system development charges are applicable. SEWER COMMENTS 1. Sewer service is provided by the City of Renton. North of the site, there is an existing 12” concrete sewer flowing east to west in the southern portion of S. 2nd Street. Reference COR Project File WWP2701778 for record drawings. There is also an 18” sewer flowing east to west north of the 12” main. No record drawings are available for this main. East of the site, there is an existing 8” PVC sewer flowing south to north in Logan Avenue S. Reference COR Project File WWP2702110 for record drawings. 2. There are two existing side sewers serving the existing building. Both side sewer stubs serving the site are 6” PVC and connect to the 8” main in Logan Avenue S. Both side sewer stubs can be reused to serve the renovated building. The PVC side sewer stubs replaced old clay side sewer stubs that originally served the building. We strongly suggest that you identify if there is still remaining clay side sewer and replace it as necessary. 3. As the existing sewer service will be reused, no sewer system development charges are applicable. STORM DRAINAGE COMMENTS 1. No storm drainage improvements are required as no new and/or replaced impervious surface is proposed. TRANSPORTATION/STREET COMMENTS Custom Pressed Tees – PRE16-000640 Page 3 of 3 September 1, 2016 H:\CED\Planning\Current Planning\PREAPPS\2016 Preapps\PRE16-000640\16-0901 PRE16-000640 Civil Pre-App Comments.docx 1. The current transportation impact fee is $3.33 per square foot of retail space. A transportation impact fee credit will be issued for the existing building use. The transportation impact fee for an automotive garage is $3.33. Thus, the impact fee will balance with the credit, and no additional transportation impact fee will be due. 2. As this project is proposing an interior remodel and no new construction or additions valued at over $50,000, no street frontage improvements or right of way dedication are required. GENERAL COMMENTS 1. The SDCs listed are for 2016. The fees that are current at the time of the utility permit application will be levied. Please see the City of Renton website for current SDCs.
