Dear Planning Department Reviewer
We have been retained by the Cedar Ridge church located at 1 141 1 SE164th Street in
Renton, Washington to assist them in obtaining a CUP as required to expand their
current church structure to better suit the needs of their congregation. The churches
proposed project will be phased in accordance with the approved CUP master plan.
The first phase of the project, which will take place in the near future, would be the
construction of a new building adjacent to the existing church structure which will serve
as the congregation's new sanctuary.
The existing building will remain in its current unaltered configuration until the
completion of phase two, or possibly the final phase of the project, if budget dictates,
in which it will be remodeled to conform to the construction and requirements of
previously constructed new sanctuary.
The enclosed site plan displays a dashed outline of a possible phase three addition of a
new gym, but at present the church is not focused on creating or developing this
space as it will be many years before a gym will be needed. Included in this submittal is
a detailed critical areas survey outlining the wetlands both on and offsite as indicated
on the site plan.
Upon review of the City's Municipal code I was unable to find a height limit exception
for steeples. Please comment as to the existence or nonexistence of such exceptions
and where these exception are located within the municipal code. Please comment as
to the on and offsite improvements that will be required, and if possible, provide an
estimate of development permit fees.
We appreciate your time and effort in reviewing this reapplication and look forward to
receiving your comments.
Sincerely, 4,/

located as a portion of Section 29, Township 23N, Range 05E, W.M. The tax parcel number for
this property is 008800-0320. Per the King County Assessor's office, the site encompasses
approximately 2.55-acres. Surrounding land use is comprised of single family residential
development with an electrical transmission line easement running across approximately the
southern 200 feet of the site. Access to this site is from the north via a gravel driveway that
leads south from SE 164th Street. An existing church building and associated parking are located
in the center of the site on a small hill. The site slopes away from this point in all directions. The
majority of the site is comprised of maintained lawn with scattered trees. The area under the
transmission lines is dominated by Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus, FacU). There are
two Category 3 wetlands located in the southern portion of the property, beneath the
transmission lines. In the City of Renton, Category 3 wetlands receive a 25-foot standard buffer
measured from the delineated wetland edge.
METHODOLOGIES OF CRITICAL AREAS EVALUATION
In July of 2014, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC conducted a site visit to locate and verify
wetlands and streams occurring on and adjacent to the subject site. The methods used for
delineating, classifying, and rating the wetlands and streams in the project area are consistent
with current Federal, State, and City of Renton requirements. At the time of our July 31, 2014
site investigation, the weather was sunny with a temperature of 74 degrees Fahrenheit.
Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC used the routine methodologies described in the
Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (Washington State
Department of Ecology Publication #96-94, March 1997) to make a determination regarding
regulated wetlands. In addition, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC evaluated the site using the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual produced in 1987 and the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation
Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region produced in May 2010 (hereinafter
referred to as "the Corps Regional Supplement"). The Corps Regional Supplement is designed
for concurrent use with the 1987 Corps Wetland Delineation Manual and all subsequent
versions. The 2010 Regional Supplement provides technical guidance and procedures for
identifying and delineating wetlands that may be subject to regulatory jurisdiction under
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Where differences in the two documents occur, the Corps
Regional Supplement takes precedence over the Corps Manual for applications in the Western
Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region.

According to the federal and state methodologies described above, identification of wetlands is
based on a three -factor approach involving indicators of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils,
and the presence or evidence of persistent hydrology. Except where noted in the manuals, the
three -factor approach discussed above requires positive indicators of hydrophytic vegetation,
hydric soils, and wetland hydrology, to make a determination that an area is a regulated
wetland. Using the aforementioned manuals, the procedure for making a wetland
determination is as follows:
1.) Examination of the site for hydrophytic vegetation (species present/percent cover);
2.) Examination for the presence of hydric soils in areas where hydrophytic vegetation is
present; and
3.) The final step is determining if wetland hydrology exists in the area examined under the first
two steps.
Per industry standards, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC examined the entire project site. Per
current City of Renton requirements, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC also assessed adjacent
properties within 300 feet of the proposed project limits, to the maximum extent possible
without entering adjacent properties. While a detailed assessment of Critical Areas on adjacent
properties was not possible due to the lack of legal access, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC
conducted a review of all available information to assess the presence of off -site Critical Areas
within 300 feet of the subject site. This review is necessary to determine if any regulated Critical
Areas exist off -site which would cause associated protective buffers to extend onto the
property and affect the development proposal.
In addition to on -site field reviews, Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC examined aerial
photographs and topographical data (elevation contours) on King County's interactive mapping
system (iMAP). Soil survey maps produced by the Natural Resources Conservation Service
(NRCS), National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps produced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS), SalmonScape fish distribution maps produced by the Washington Department of Fish
and Wildlife (WDFW), and StreamNet fish distribution maps produced by Pacific States Marine
Fisheries Commission were also evaluated by Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC as part of this
project consultation.

BOUNDARY DETERMINATION FINDINGS
Wetlands were classified according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Cowardin
system Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.,
1979) and rated, by categories, according to the City of Renton Municipal Code Section 4-3-050
(Critical Areas Regulations). Buffers are also determined by this chapter.
Wetland A
Cowardin: Palustrine, Scrub -Shrub wetland, Broad-leaved Deciduous, Seasonally
Flooded/Saturated (PSS1E)
City of Renton Rating: Category 3, 25' Buffer
This wetland is located within a transmission line easement in the southern portion of the
subject site and extends off -site to the south. This wetland does not meet the criteria for a
Category 1 wetland in that it does not contain threatened or endangered species or provide
habitat for these species. It is less than ten acres in size with two classes of vegetation
(Scrub/shrub and emergent), does not contain permanent open water, and does not contain
plant associations of infrequent occurrence. This wetland does not meet the criteria for a
Category 2 wetland in that it does not have heron rookeries or osprey nests, is not located at
the headwater of a watercourse, and it has extensive human related vegetation alteration. In
the City of Renton, Category 3 wetlands receive 25-foot standard buffers from their delineated
edge.
The majority of this wetland is represented my maintained lawn / pasture. However, there is
some scattered scrub/shrub vegetation located mostly near the perimeters. The scrub/shrub
vegetation is represented by Sitka willow (Salix sitchensis, FacW) with sapling Oregon ash
(Froxinus latifolia, FacW), red osier dogwood (Corpus sericea, FacW), and black hawthorne
(Crataegus douglosii, Fac). The pasture portion of this wetland is dominated by reed
canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea, FacW) with lesser amounts of soft rush (Juncus effusus,
FacW), creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens, FacW), field horsetail (Equisetum arvense, Fac),
and water foxtail (Alopecurus geniculatus, Obl). Soils in this wetland have a Munsell color of
very dark greyish brown (10YR 3/2) with redoximorphic features of brown (10YR 4/3), and a
texture of silt loam from 0 to 18 inches below the surface. Soils in this wetland were moist
throughout during our July 2014 site visit.

Wetland B
Cowardin: Palustrine, Emergent wetland, Persistent, Seasonally Flooded/Saturated (PEM1E)
City of Renton Rating: Category 3, 25' Buffer
This wetland is located just off -site to the west, within the transmission line easement near the
southern portion of the subject site. This wetland does not meet the criteria for a Category 1
wetland in that it does not contain threatened or endangered species or provide habitat for
these species. It is less than ten acres in size with one class of vegetation (emergent), does not
contain permanent open water, and does not contain plant associations of infrequent
occurrence. This wetland does not meet the criteria for a Category 2 wetland in that it does not
have heron rookeries or osprey nests, is not located at the headwater of a watercourse, and it
has extensive human related vegetation alteration and is dominated by invasive reed
canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea, FacW). In the City of Renton, Category 3 wetlands receive
25-foot standard buffers from their delineated edge.
Vegetation in this wetland is dominated by reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea, FacW) and
creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens, FacW), with sparse amounts of climbing nightshade
(Solanum dulcamara, Fac). Soils in this wetland have a Munsell color of very dark greyish brown
(10YR 3/2) with redoximorphic features of brown (10YR 4/3), and a texture of silt loam from 0
to 18 inches below the surface. Soils in this wetland were saturated at 14 inches below the
surface during our July 2014 site visit.
Non - Wetland
Vegetation over most of the property is comprised of maintained lawn represented by tall
fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus, Fac), colonial bentgrass (Agrostis tenuis, Fac), hairy Cat's-ear
(Hypochaeris radicata, FacU), and English plantain (Plantago lonceolata, FacU). The lawn is
interspersed with scattered trees, including big leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum, FacU), black
cottonwood (Populus balsomifera, Fac), and Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia, FacW). Vegetation in
the southern part of the site under the transmission easement is dominated by Himalayan
blackberry (Rubus armeniacus, FacU). Typical soils in the non -wetland portions of the site have
Munsell colors ranging from very dark greyish brown (10YR 3/2) to dark brown (10YR 3/3), with
textures of gravelly sandy loam from 0 to 18 inches below the surface. Soils in the non -wetland
portions of this property were dry during our July 2014 site visit.

NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION SERVICE SOILS DESCRIPTION:
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) mapped the subject property as being
underlain by Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6 to 15 percent slopes.
The NRCS describes Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6 to 15 percent slopes as rolling with
irregularly shaped areas ranging from 10 to about 600 acres in size. The A horizon ranges from
very dark brown to dark brown. The B horizon is dark brown, grayish brown, and dark yellowish
brown. Permeability is moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil and very slow in the
substratum. Available water capacity is described as low. Included within this soil unit are the
poorly drained Norma, Bellingham, Seattle, Tukwila, Shalcar soils, and Alderwood soils that
have slopes more gentle or steeper than 6 to 15 percent. Included soil units make up no more
than 30 percent of the total acreage.
EXISTING FUNCTIONS AND VALUES ANALYSIS
The methodologies for this functions and values analysis are based on professional opinion
developed through past field analyses and interpretations. This assessment pertains specifically
to the subject wetlands, but is typical for assessments of similar systems throughout western
Washington. The three main functions provided by wetlands include water quality, stormwater
/ hydrologic control, and wildlife habitat. Vegetation in the subject wetlands is represented by a
mix of primarily, emergent weedy species. The buffers on the subject site are dominated by
Himalayan blackberry. Overall, the subject wetlands and associated on -site buffers provide low
to moderate levels of functions and values.
Wetland A is a hydrogeomorphic class slope wetland and as a result, water flows quickly
through this system and it is unable to retain significant quantities of stormwater. The short
hydrologic residence time also means that this wetland has less opportunity to provide water
quality functions. Wetland B appears to be a hydrogeomorphic class depressional wetland and
has the ability to retain stormwater for prolonged periods and, as a result provides valuable
water quality functions. By storing stormwater and slowly infiltrating in to the ground, this
wetland has the ability to reduce flooding and moderate downstream flows. Water quality
functions in Wetland B are limited by its relatively small size.
Wetlands in western Washington often contain necessary wildlife habitat resources such as
food, water, thermal cover, and hiding cover in close proximity. The subject wetlands and
associated buffers provide protected habitat, which becomes increasingly important as areas
become further populated with humans and habitat areas become fragmented. The subject
wetlands are primarily emergent wetlands dominated by invasive and non-native species. As a
result these features provide little value for wildlife habitat. Habitat functions in these wetlands
are limited by the proximity to roads and development, and the habitat fragmentation that
Acre Environmental Consulting, LLC December 22, 2014

Renton, WA Page 6
results, as well as by the prevalence of invasive species and the lack of established woody
vegetation and vegetative species diversity. It is expected that birds and small mammals are the
primary species to utilize the subject wetlands and buffers.
Although dominated by invasive species, the established vegetation within the wetlands and
associated buffers on this site serves to intercept rain fall before it strikes the soil, thereby
reducing erosion and improving water quality. Furthermore, the dense vegetation and
adsorbent soils serve to trap sediment and pollutants and provide increased water quality
functions that aid in a reduction of sediment which results in cleaner water leaving the site.
