FINALIZING A SUBMITTAL I I I I I I I I I I PACKAGE FOR THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE. HONEY CREEK RIDGE WILL BE A RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION ON APPROXIMATELY 51 ACRES OF LAND THAT CURRENTLY LIES IN BOTH THE CITY OF RENTON AND KING COUNTY. THE PLAT HAS TWO MAIN DIVISIONS. DIVISION I IS WITHIN THE RENTON CITY LIMITS AND CONSISTS OF 36 LOTS ON 25.3 ACRES WITH 11.7 ACRES SET ASIDE AS GREEN BELT. DIVISION II IS 56 LOTS, 6 LOTS ARE WITHIN THE CITY OF RENTON AND 50 LOTS ARE WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. THE 50 LOTS ARE A REPLAT OF THE 53 EXISTING PLATTED LOTS OF ALBERT BALCH'S SIERRA HEIGHTS DIVISION *5. THE REPLATTING OF THE 50 LOTS TO THE CITY OF RENTON STANDARDS REQUIRES A REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF LOTS. DIVISION *2 IS 23.9 ACRES WITH 7.4 ACRES AS GREENBELT. DIVISION III IS 4 LOTS ON 1. 8 ACRES. THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL HAS THE POTENTIAL OF ALLOWING AN AREA TO DEVELOP THAT HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN CONSTRAINED DUE TO THE LACK OF ADEQUATE SEPTIC DISPOSAL FACILITIES. ALL OF THE PROPERTY WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA IS CURRENTLY UNDEVELOPED. A SMALL CREEK, (HONEY CREEK), THAT TRAVERSES THE SOUTHERN PROPERTIES OF THE ANNEXATION AREA PLACES A DEVELOPMENT CONSTRAINT ON A LARGE PORTION OF THE SOUTHERN AREA OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION. IN ADDITION TO THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT THE REMAINING AREA PROPOSED FOR ANNEXATION WILL SUPPORT APPROXIMATELY 15 ADDITIONAL RESIDENCES. IN PREPARING THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE, LAKERIDGE HAS OBTAINED INFORMATION RELATING TO SITE SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES OF THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION.

THE STEEP SLOPES ARE ON THE HILLSIDE AREA ADJACENT TO THE STREAM. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? ON THE HILLSIDE AREA ADJACENT TO THE STREAM, THE SLOPES RANGE FROM MODERATE TO VERY STEEP, WITH THE STEEPEST SLOPES BEING IN EXCESS OF 100% IN LOCALIZED AREAS. AS THE AREA DEVELOPS THERE WILL BE CONSTRAINTS PLACED ON DEVELOPMENT ADJACENT TO THE STEEP SLOPES. MOST OF THE AREAS OF 40% OR GREATER SLOPES WILL EVENTUALLY BE PLACED IN A GREEN BELT DESIGNATION. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I '1 I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 4 c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any prime farmland. USING THE 1973 KING COUNTY SOIL SURVEY THE FOLLOWING SOILS ARE INDICATED AS BEING WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. 1. THE UPLAND AREA SOILS CONSIST PRIMARILY OF ALDERWOOD AgC AND ARENTS, ALDERWOOD ArnC. THESE SOILS ARE MORE COMMONLY. KNOWN AS GLACIAL TILL. 2. THE EASTERN BOUNDARY OF THE ANNEXATION AREA IN THE VICINITY OF THE STEEP SLOPES IS CLASSIFIED ALDERWOOD AND KITSAP AkF. ALDERWOOD AND KITSAP SOILS ARE COMMONLY FOUND IN HILLSIDE AREAS. THE BOUNDARY OF THE SOIL APPEARS TO BE CLOSE TO THE TOP OF BANK. THE GEOTECHNICAL REPORT CONTAINS SPECIFIC ONSITE SOILS INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM TEST PIT LOGS. THE TEST PITS WERE DUG IN THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe:. THERE IS AN AREA ON TAX LOT f 35 WHERE A BURIED TELEPHONE CABLE PLACED DOWN THE HILLSIDE ADJACENT TO HONEY CREEK IS ERODING. IT APPEARS THAT THE BACKFILL AND RESTORATION OF THE CABLE· TRENCH WAS IMPROPERLY STABILIZED. SUBSEQUENT TO THE CABLE INSTALLATION, STORMWATER RUNOFF HAS CAUSED THE AREA TO ERODE. THE EROSION HAS CREATED A SMALL SWALE THAT APPEARS TO HAVE STABILIZED. NORTH AND WEST OF THE ANNEXATION AREA, A ROAD THAT IS CURRENTLY CLOSED TO VEHICULAR TRAFFIC (120TH PL SE) HAS EXPERIENCED EROSION AND SLIDING PROBLEMS. IT IS EVIDENT THAT ANY FUTURE WORK ON OR ADJACENT TO THE HILLSIDE AREA WILL NEED TO BE PERFORMED WITH EXTREME CAUTION .. e. Describe the purpose, type and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill: NONE DIRECTLY RELATED TO THIS PROPOSAL. HOWEVER, SOME ROAD AND LOT GRADING WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE. MORE THAN LIKELY, SOME MINOR GRADING WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THE OTHER PARCELS WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WHEN THOSE PROPERTIES DEVELOP. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction or use? If so, generally describe. NOT DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION. AS THE AREA DEVELOPS, THERE IS ALWAYS THE POTENTIAL THAT IMPROPER UTILITY INSTALLATIONS, AND CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES MAY CAUSE EROSION. MOST OF THE DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL BE LIMITED TO THE NORTHERN UPLAND AREAS AND AWAY FROM THE STEEP SLOPE PORTION OF THE HILLSIDE AREA ASSOCIATED WITH HONEY CREEK. THE CITY OF RENTON DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS ARE PROTECTIVE OF STEEP SLOPE AREAS.

About what percent of the site will be covered with . impervious surfaces after the project construction (for example, . asphalt or buildings)? THERE WILL BE NO CHANGE ASA DIRECT RESULT OF THIS ANNEXATION. IT IS ESTIMATED THAT FOR THE PROPOSED HONEY CREEK RIDGE SUBDIVISION THERE WILL BE 17% IMPERVIOUS AREA WHEN THE PROJECT IS COMPLETED. SINCE THE REMAINDER OF THE PROPERTIES AT THE SOUTHEAST PORTION OF THE ANNEXATION AREA ALSO CONTAIN THE CREEK AND ADJACENT HILLSIDE AREA, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT WHEN THOSE PROPERTIES ARE EVENTUALLY DEVELOPED, THE TOTAL IMPERVIOUS AREA WILL BE LESS THAN WHAT WAS DETERMINED FOR THE HONEY CREEK RIDGE SUBDIVISION. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: THE CITY OF RENTON HAS RECENTLY ADOPTED THE NEW KING COUNTY SURFACE WATER DESIGN MANUAL. CHAPTER FIVE OF THE MANUAL CONTAINS EROSION/SEDIMENTATION CONTROL PLAN PRACTICES REQUIREMENTS THAT WILL BE PLACED UPON EACH NEW PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. THE NEW KING COUNTY SURFACE WATER DESIGN MANUAL CONTAINS THE MOST UP TO DATE METHODS AND REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTROLLING EROSION FROM NEW DEVELOPMENTS. THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE WILL BE REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH THE EROSION CONTROL REQUIREMENTS IN THE NEW MANUAL. AIR a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. AS THE AREA DEVELOPS, THERE WILL BE MINIMAL EMISSIONS OF DUST, EQUIPMENT EXHAUST , AND ODORS FROM PAVING DURING THE CONSTRUCTION OF EACH PROJECT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. WHEN THE AREA IS EVENTUALLY DEVELOPED, THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT ·INCREASE IN AUTOMOBILE, WOOD STOVE,AND FIREPLACE EMISSIONS. b. Are there any off-site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so: NONE THAT WOULD AFFECT THE PROPOSAL AND NONE THAT WOULD EFFECT THE POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANNEXATION AREA c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: NONE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL, HOWEVER, AS THE AIR QUALITY CONTINUES TO BE IMPACTED BY INCREASED DEVELOPMENT, IT IS PROPOSED THAT THE CITY OF RENTON CONSIDER ALLOWING ONLY E.P.A. CERTIFIED WOOD STOVES OR FIREPLACE INSERTS IN NEW SUBDIVISIONS. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 6 WATER a. SURFACE: 1. Is there any surface' water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site (including' year-round and seasonal ' streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds, wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. A SMALL STREAM (HONEY CREEK) TRAVERSES FROM THE SOUTHEAST TO THE NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. THE STREAM FLOWS GENERALLY FROM THE SOUTH TO THE NORTH, WHERE IT CONVERGES WITH MAY CREEK. MAY CREEK FLOWS INTO LAKE WASHINGTON. 2. Will the proposal require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the described waters? If yes, please describe and attach plans. NONE AS A DIRECT "RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL. HOWEVER, NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL NEED TO TIE INTO AN EXISTING SANITARY SEWER LINE THAT IS ADJACENT TO AND ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF HONEY CREEK. ADDITIONALLY, SOME WORK MAY BE REQUIRED ADJACENT TO THE CREEK TO PROVIDE STABLE OUTFALLS FOR STORMWATER DETENTION SYSTEMS FOR THE SUBDIVISIONS THAT DEVELOP WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. 3. Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material. NONE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL, AND NONE KNOWN AS A RESULT OF POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. 4. will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. NONE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL, AND NONE KNOWN AS A RESULT OF POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. 5. Does the proposal lie within a 100-year floodplain? If so, note location on the site plan. ACCORDING TO THE KING COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THERE IS A lOO-YEAR FLOODPLAIN ASSOCIATED WITH HONEY CREEK. SINCE HONEY CREEK IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILLSIDE AREA, THE FLOODPLAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE CREEK WILL BE FAR OUTSIDE ANY POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AREA.

NONE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL, AND NONE AS A RESULT OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AREA. GROUND: 1. will ground water be withdrawn, or will water be discharged to ground water? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. NONE AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL, AND NONE AS A RESULT OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AREA. 2. Describe waste material that will be discharged into the ground from septic tanks or other sources, if any (for example: Domestic chemicals ... and agricultural; etc). Describe the general size of the system, the number of such systems, the number of houses to be served (if applicable), or the number of animals or humans the system(s) are expected to serve. NONE AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL, AND NONE KNOWN AS A RESULT OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AREA. THE ANNEXATION WILL ALLOW FOR THE EXTENSION OF SEWER SERVICE TO AN AREA CURRENTLY SERVED BY SEPTIC SYSTEMS. c. WATER RUNOFF (including storm water) : 1. Describe the source of runoff (including storm water) and method of collection and disposal, if any (include quantities if known). Where will this matter flow? Will this water flow into other waters? If so, describe. RUNOFF FROM THE AREA GENERALLY SHEET FLOWS OVERLAND OR IN SHALLOW SWALES TO THE SOUTHWEST WHERE IT EVENTUALLY ENTERS HONEY CREEK. THE SOURCE OF WATER IS STORMWATER RUNOFF FROM RESIDENCES, UNDEVELOPED LAND, AND ROADS. THE PROPERTIES THAT DEVELOP WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ON SITE STORMWATER RETENTION/DETENTION FACILITIES, AND PRIOR TO DISCHARGE OF ANY ADDITIONAL STORMWATER INTO EITHER NEW OR EXISTING CONVEYANCE SYSTEMS, ALL STORMWATER WILL BE REQUIRED TO FLOW THROUGH OIL/WATER SEPARATORS AND BIOFILTRATION SWALES. THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE DETERMINED AT THE TIME THE~ITY OF RENTON REVIEWS APPLICATIONS FOR NEW SUBDIVISIONS. 2. Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 8 ILLEGALLY DISCHARGED WASTE MATERIALS COULD ENTER GROUND AND SURFACE WATERS. THE PUBLIC IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE AWARE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER HOUSEHOLD WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS. THERE ARE STILL THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO DuMP WASTE MATERIALS INTO THE STORM DRAINS. THE NEW STORM DRAIN INLETS THAT HAVE THE STATEMENT "DUMP NO POLLUTANTS -OUTFALL TO STREAM" ARE A GOOD START AT MINIMIZING THE ILLEGALLY'DISCHARGED WASTE MATERIALS. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground and runoff water impacts, if any: ALL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE HONEY CREEK BASIN AREA IS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ONSITE DETENTION FACILITIES THAT ARE DESIGNED TO STORE A POST-DEVELOPED 25-YEAR STORM EVENT AND RELEASE THE STORMWATER AT A PREDEVELOPED 5-YEAR STORM RATE. ADDITIONALLY,THE CITY OF RENTON HAS RECENTLY ADOPTED THE NEW "1990 KING COUNTY SURFACE WATER DESIGN MANUAL". THE NEW MANUAL CONTAINS VERY RESTRICTIVE DESIGN CRITERIA THAT IF PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED WILL ENSURE THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL HAVE LITTLE OR NO IMPACT TO THE HONEY CREEK STREAM.

What kind and amount of vegetation will be removed or altered? NONE AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL. HOWEVER, WITHIN THE AREA THAT CAN SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT, VEGETATION WILL BE REMOVED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF ROADS AND HOUSES. EACH PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WILL BE REQUIRED BY THE CITY OF RENTON TO PREPARE A LANDSCAPE PLAN WHICH REQUIRES A FIELD SURVEY OF ALL THE TREES ON THE SITE OF A MINIMUM SIZE. THE PLAN ALSO SHOWS THE PROPOSED AREAS TO BE CLEARED. c. List threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. NONE d. Proposed landscaping, use of native plants, or other measure to preserve or enhance vegetation on the site, if any: NONE AS A PART OF THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL.

THE TREE PLAN IS TYPICAL OF WHAT WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR ANY OTHER DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. MOST OF THE AREA THAT HAS SLOPES OF 40% OR GREATER WILL BE PRESERVED AS PERMANENT OPEN SPACE/GREENBELT. A LARGE PORTION OF THE SOUTHEAST ANNEXATION AREA IS WITHIN THE STREAM CORRIDOR AND ADJACENT HILLSIDE AREA. THEREFORE, THE EXISTING NATIVE PLANTS AND VEGETATION IN THE AREA WILL CONSEQUENTLY BE PRESERVED. ANIMALS a. Circle any birds and animals which have been observed on or near the site or are known to be on or near the site: Birds: hawk, heron, eagle, SONGBIRDS, other~===-~~ Marmnals: DEER, bear, elk, beaver, other RODENTS, MOUNTAIN BEAVER Fish: bass, salmon, TROUT, herring, shellfish, other b. List any threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. NONE KNOWN c. Is the site part of a migration route? If so explain. NONE KNOWN d. Proposed measures to preserve or enhance wildlife, if any: NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ANNEXATION PROPOSAL. THE PRESERVATION OF THE HILLSIDE AREA, INCLUDING THE CREEK , AS PERMANENT OPEN SPACE, WILL ALLOW FOR THE CREATION OF A WILDLIFE CORRIDOR. THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE HAS SET ASIDE A LARGE PROPORTION (40%) OF THE TOTAL PROJECT ACREAGE AS OPEN SPACE. AS THE REMAINING SMALL UPLAND AREA WITHIN THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION DEVELOPS, THE IDENTIFICATION AND PRESERVATION OF APPROPRIATE OPEN SPACE WILL OCCUR DURING THE CITIES REVIEW OF THE PROPOSAL. ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES a. What kinds of energy (electricity, natural gas, oil, wood stove, solar) will be used to meet the completed project's energy needs? Describe whether it will be used for heating, manufacturing, etc. NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION ALL OF THE ABOVE RESOURCES MAY BE UTILIZED FOR HEATING OF SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES AS THE AREA DEVELOPS. b. Would your proposal affect the potential use of solar energy by adjacent properties? If so, generally describe. NO c. What kinds of energy conservation features are indicated in the plans for this proposal? List other proposed measures to reduce or control energy impacts, if any:' NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH a. Are there any environmental health hazards, including exposure to toxic chemicals, risk of fire and explosion, spill or hazardous waste, that could occur as a result of this proposal? If so describe. THE PUGET POWER BEVERLY TALBOT #1 AND #2 TRANSMISSION LINES TRAVERSES A PORTION OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA. THE POWER LINES ARE LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST AREA OF THE AlBERT BALCH'S SIERRA HEIGHTS #5 SUBDIVISION. (SEE VICINITY MAP) THE POWER LINES ARE CURRENTLY OPERATED AT 115-kV WHICH RESULTS IN A MAGNETIC FIELD STRENGTH THAT RANGES FROM 8 TO 22 mG AT THE EDGE OF THE POWER LINE EASEMENT (25' AWAY FROM THE LINE). PUGET POWER PLANS TO REPLACE THE EXISTING LINES WITH A NEW LINE THAT WILL OPERATE AT 230kV. THE ANTICIPATED MAGNETIC FIELD STRENGTH FROM THE NEW LINE WILL BE IN THE RANGE OF 6 TO 12 mG AT THE EDGE OF THE POWER LINE EASEMENT. THE PROPOSED POWER LINE WILL ACTUALLY REDUCE THE MAGNETIC FIELD STRENGTH AT THE EDGE OF THE EASEMENT. HERE IS A CONCERN ABOUT THE LONG TERM HEALTH EFFECTS OF LIVING ADJACENT TO POWER TRANSMISSION LINES. 1. Describe special emergency services that might be required. N .A. 2. Proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards if any. N.A. ANY NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA ADJACENT TO THE POWER LINES, WILL HAVE TO BE EVALUATED TO DETERMINE APPROPRIATE BUILDING SETBACK LINES (BSBL) THAT MINIMIZES THE POTENTIAL IMPACT TO NEW RESIDENCES NEAR THE LINES. b. NOISE 1. What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your proposal (for example: traffic, equipment, operation, other)? NONE 2. What types and levels of noise would be created by or associated with the project on a short-term or a long-term basis (for example: traffic, construction, operation, other)? Indicate what hours noise would come from this site. NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA MAY RESULT IN SOME NOISE FROM CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS, WHILE CONSTRUCTION IS IN PROGRESS. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 11 CHECKLIST 3. Proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any: NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION AS THE AREA DEVELOPS, THE PRESERVATION OF VEGETATION ON AND ADJACENT TO THE HILLSIDE AREA, WILL PROVIDE A NOISE BUFFER TO RESIDENTS LIVING ON THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE CREEK. THE PRESERVATION OF SOME OF THE ONSITE TREES IDENTIFIED AS BEING SIGNIFICANT ON THE "TREE PLAN" WILL AID IN CREATING A NOISE BUFFER FOR THOSE RESIDENTS LIVING ADJACENT TO PROPOSED PROJECTS. ADDITIONALLY, THE CITY OF RENTON PLACES LIMITS ON CONSTRUCTION HOURS. EACH PROJECT WILL HAVE TO BE INDIVIDUALLY EVALUATED BY THE CITY PLANNING DEPARTMENT AT THE TIME THE PROJECT APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW. 8. LAND AND SHORELINE USE a. What is the current use of the annexation area and adjacent properties? THE ZONING WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA IS SFR, HOWEVER MOST OF THE PROPERTY IS VACANT. THERE ARE SOME SCATTERED SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA. EXISTING LAND USES ADJACENT TO THE ANNEXATION AREA CONSIST OF SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS TO THE SOUTHWEST, EAST, AND NORTH. b. Has the annexation area been used for agriculture? If so, describe. NO c. Describe any structures on the site. THE STRUCTURES ARE SCATTERED RESIDENCES AND ASSOCIATED OUTBUILDINGS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHEAST AREA. d. will any structures be demolished? If so, what? NO e. What is the current zoning classification of the annexation area? SINGLE-FAMILY ZONING, RS-7200, IS THE PREDOMINANT KING COUNTY ZONING DESIGNATION WITHIN THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA. THERE ARE TWO SMALL AREAS OF SC-P ZONING, ONE IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHWEST AREA, AND THE OTHER IS AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. SEE EXHIBITS 4 AND 5 OF THE ANNEXATION REVIEW SUMMARY THAT SHOWS THE EXISTING CITY OF RENTON ZONING ADJACENT TO THE ANNEXATION AREA AND THE EXISTING KING COUNTY ZONING WITHIN THE COUNTY. f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the annexation area? THE CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HAS TWO DESIGNATIONS FOR THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA -SINGLE-FAMILY FOR THE UPLAND AREA AND GREENBELT FOR THE AREA ADJACENT TO HONEY CREEK. SEE EXHIBIT 6 OF THE ANNEXATION REVIEW SUMMARY. AS CAN BE SEEN ON EXHIBIT 6, MOST OF THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 12 ANNEXATION AREA IS DESIGNATED GREENBELT IN THE CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? N.A. h. Has any part of the site been classified as an "environmentally sensitive" area? If so, specify. THE KING COUNTY SENSITIVE AREAS FOLIO DESIGNATES THE HILLSIDE AREA ADJACENT TO HONEY CREEK AS: CLASS III EROSION, SEISMIC, AND LANDSLIDE HAZARD AREAS. THE PREPARATION OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS FOLIOS CLASSIFIED ALL HILLSIDE AREAS AS CLASS III EROSION, SEISMIC, AND LANDSLIDE HAZARD AREAS. TYPICALLY, ANY DEVELOPMENT ADJACENT TO SENSITIVE AREAS ASSOCIATED WITH STEEP SLOPES ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE APPROPRIATE BUILDING SETBACK DISTANCES FROM THE TOP OF 40% SLOPE. USUALLY, THE APPROPRIATE SETBACK DISTANCE IS DETERMINED BY A GEOTECHNICAL CONSULTANT WHO MAKES ONS ITE SOILS EVALUATION OF THE SPECIFIC SITE PROPOSED FOR DEVELOPMENT. THE SITE IS ALSO EVALUATED FOR EVIDENCE OF RECENT LANDSLIDE AND EROSION ACTIVITIES. THE GEOTECHNICAL REPORT SUBMITTED WITH THIS CHECKLIST EVALUATED THE FEASIBILITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. PAGE 5 OF THE REPORT STATED THAT "IN GENERAL, WE CONCLUDE THAT THE EVALUATED SITE AREAS SHOULD BE· COMPATIBLE WITH THE PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT USAGE" PAGE 9 OF THE REPORT FURTHER INDICATES THAT AN APPROPRIATE BUILDING SETBACK FROM THE TOP-OF-BANK OF THE HILLSIDE AREA IS 25'. i. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? NOT APPLICABLE TO THE PROPOSED ACTION DIVISION II OF THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE HAS 56 LOTS, 50 OF WHICH ARE WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. AT AN AVERAGE OF 3 PERSONS PER RESIDENCE IT IS ESTIMATED THAT 150 ADDITIONAL PEOPLE WILL EVENTUALLY RESIDE IN THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION. THE MAJORITY OF THE BUILDABLE LAND WITH~N THE ANNEXATION AREA IS LOCATED IN DIVISION II OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE. THERE IS A SMALL PORTION OF THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE ANNEXATION AREA THAT IS LEVEL ENOUGH FOR SUBDIVIDING INTO APPROXIMATELY 10 RESIDENCES. ADDITIONALLY, A SMALL AREA AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF TAX LOT *35 MAY SUPPORT 5 ADDITIONAL RESIDENCES. THEREFORE, THE ANNEXATION AREA HAS THE POTENTIAL OF PROVIDING 65 NEW RESIDENCES WITH AN ESTIMATED POPULATION OF 195 PEOPLE. j. Approximately how many people would the completed proposal displace?

POTENTIAL FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANNEXATION AREA WOULD ;1 RESULT IN THE ADDITION OF APPROXIMATELY 65 NEW RESIDENCES OF MEDIUM INCOME HOUSING. b. Approximately how many units would be eliminated? NO KNOWN RESIDENCES WILL BE ELIMINATED BY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AREA AS A RESULT OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control housing impacts, if any: NO KNOWN HOUSING IMPACTS WILL RESULT FROM THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION OR THE DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. AESTHETICS a. What is the tallest height of any proposed structure, not including antennas, what is the principal exterior building material (s)proposed. NOT APPLICABLE TO THE PROPOSED ACTION NEW RESIDENCES WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL MORE THAN LIKELY BE CONSTRUCTED OF WOOD AND BRICK TO A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 30'. ALL PROPOSED NEW RESIDENCES WILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH CURRENT CITY OF RENTON BUILDING STANDARDS WHEN THE APPLICATION IS SUBM'130 A UAA OR REVIEW BY THE CITY. b. What views in the immediate area would be altered or obstructed? NOT APPLICABLE TO THE PROPOSED ACTION NO KNOWN VIEWS WILL BE ALTERED OR OBSTRUCTED AS A RESULT OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control aesthetic impacts, if any? NOT APPLICABLE TO THE PROPOSED ACTION THE PRESERVATION OF THE CREEK AND ADJACENT HILLSIDE AS OPEN SPACE/GREENBELT WILL PRESERVE A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA. APPROXIMATELY 40% OF THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE WILL BE PRESERVED AS OPEN SPACE. APPROXIMATELY 80% OF THE REMAINING AREA WITHIN THE ANNEXATION IS DESIGNATED AS GREENBELT ON THE CITIES COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

LIGHT AND GLARE 12. a. What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day? N.A. FUTURE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL HAVE STREET AND HOUSE LIGHTS. LIGHTS WILL BE ON PRIMARILY DURING THE EVENINGS AND NIGHT. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? NOT AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE PROPOSED ACTION. WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AREA, IT IS NOT ANTICIPATED THAT HOUSE AND STREET LIGHTS WILL CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD OR INTERFERE WITH VIEWS. c. What existing off site source of glare may affect your proposal? NO OFFSITE GLARE IS KNOWN TO EXIST THAT MAY IMPACT THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANNEXATION AREA. d. Proposed measures to control light or glare, if any? THE PRESERVATION OF THE VEGETATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE HILLSIDES, AND THE PRESERVATION OF SOME OF THE ONSITE VEGETATION OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA, WILL GREATLY REDUCE LIGHT AND GLARE ASSOCIATED WITH NEW CONSTRUCTION AS A RESULT OF THIS PROPOSED ANNEXATION. RECREATION a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? SIERRA HEIGHTS PARK IS LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 1/4 MILE TO THE NORTHEAST WHICH PROVIDES DESIGNATED RECREATION. HONEY CREEK IS LOCATED TO THE WEST AND SOUTHWEST WHICH PROVIDES INFORMAL RECREATION. TO THE NORTH IS THE MAY CREEK OPEN SPACE AREA. THERE IS A PROPOSED HONEY CREEK/MAY CREEK TRAIL SYSTEM WHICH WILL CREATE MORE FORMAL RECREATION ACTIVITIES UPON IT'S COMPLETION. THE TRAIL SYSTEM WILL PARALLEL HONEY CREEK AND WILL TRAVERSE THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION. b. Would the proposed project displace any existing recreational uses? NO FORMAL EXISTING RECREATIONAL USES WILL BE DISPLACED EITHER BY THIS PROPOSED ANNEXATION OR BY ANY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA. I I I I I 1 I I 13. I I 114.

THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE PROPOSES TO DEDICATE TO THE CITY OF RENTON PARKS DEPARTMENT, A TRAIL CORRIDOR OF SUFFICIENT WIDTH, FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A TRAIL THROUGH THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION ADJACENT TO THE CREEK. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE TRAIL WILL EVENTUALLY BE TIED INTO THE HONEY CREEK/MAY CREEK TRAIL SYSTEM. AN ADDITIONAL TRAIL CORRIDOR WILL BE DEDICATED THAT PROVIDES ACCESS FROM THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA IN THE VICINITY OF THE EXISTING WESTERN TERMINUS OF S.E. lOOTH ST DOWN TO THE HONEY CREEK TRAIL AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILLSIDE AREA. HISTORIC AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION a. Are there ~ny places or objects listed on, or proposed for national,state, or local preservation registers known to be on or next to the annexation area? If so describe. NONE KNOWN b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic,archeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the annexation area. NONE c.

Will the proposal use (or occur in the immediate vicinity of) water, rail or air transportation? If so generally describe. NO f. How many vehicular trips per day would be generated by the completed proposal. If known indicate when peak volumes would occur. NO ADDITIONAL VEHICULAR TRIPS WILL OCCUR AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION. THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE WAS EVALUATED TO DETERMINE THE IMPACT OF THE ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC ON THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD. DUE TO PHYSICAL CONSTRAINTS OF THE ANNEXATION AREA IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE IS THE ONLY MAJOR DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL INCREASE TRAFFIC ON EXISTING ROADS FROM SE 104TH ST NORTH TO SE 101ST ST. SINCE TRAFFIC WAS AN ISSUE RAISED AT THE 10% ANNEXATION HEARING, THE TRAFFIC STUDY FOR THE HONEY CREEK SUBDIVISION HAS BEEN INCLUDED WITH THIS CHECKLIST AS ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION. THE CONCLUSION OF THE TRAFFIC STUDY IS THAT THE ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC FROM DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL NOT RESULT IN ANY ADVERSE EFFECTS TO THE EXISTING ROAD SYSTEMS CO~CTING THE ANNEXATION AREA TO l32ND AVE SE. NO CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED TO THE AREA THAT WOULD EFFECT THE RESULTS OF THE TRAFFIC STUDY SINCE THE TIME THE STUDY WAS PREPARED. NO NEW DEVELOPMENT HAS OCCURRED WITHIN THE AREA WEST OF 132ND AVE SE,AND NO NEW ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS HAVE BEEN CONSTRUCTED. g. Proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any? NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION ANY PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL BE REQUIRED TO PREPARE AN ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST THAT WILL BE REVIEWED BY THE CITY OF RENTON TO DETERMINE ADEQUACY OF EXISTING ROADS TO SERVE THE TYPE OF PROJECT PROPOSED. IF I IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE EXISTING ROAD SYSTEM IS INADEQUATE, THE CITY MAY REQUIRE THE PROPONENT OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT TO IMPROVE ROADS WITHIN EXISTING RIGHT-OF-WAYS TO ACCEPTABLE STANDARDS, AND/OR DEDICATE AND IMPROVE ADDITIONAL RIGHT-OF-WAYS WHERE IT IS DETERMINED TO BE NECESSARY. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE PROPOSED HONEY CREEK RIDGE SUBDIVISION WILL HAVE TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING MINIMUM IMPROVEMENTS TO THE EXISTING ROADWAYS IN THE AREA: 1. SE lOOTH STREET WILL BE IMPROVED TO FULL WIDTH STANDARDS FROM THE WESTERN TERMINUS "EAST TO l28TH AVE SE; 2. l28TH AVE SE WILL BE IMPROVED FROM SE 100TH SOUTH TO SE 102ND TO FULL WIDTH STANDARDS; AND 3.

THE 1980 DIME FILE CENSUS DATA DISTRIBUTION RATIOS OF SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN PER RESIDENTIAL UNIT IS AS FOLLOWS: GRADES K THROUGH 6 - .326, GRADES 7 THROUGH 9 -.153, AND GRADES 10 THROUGH 12 - .135. APPLYING THE DISTRIBUTION RATIOS TO THE POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF 111 ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL UNITS WITHIN THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA AND THE PART OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE SUBDIVISION THAT IS CURRENTLY WITHIN CITY LIMITS, RESULTS IN THE ENROLMENT SHOWN 'IN THE IMPACT COLUMN ADDED TO THE ABOVE CHART. THE ONLY NEGATIVE POTENTIAL WILL BE TO THE SIERRA HEIGHTS ELEMENTARY. IT SHOULD BE KEPT IN MIND THAT IT WILL TAKE SEVERAL YEARS FOR THE AREA TO BECOME COMPLETELY DEVELOPED, AND DURING THAT TIME SOME OF THE STUDENTS WILL HAVE MOVED UP TO McKNIGHT MAKING MORE ROOM AT SIERRA HEIGHTS. b. Proposed measures to reduce or control direct impacts on public services, if any? NONE DIRECTLY BY THIS ACTION. THE ADDITION OF NEW RESIDENCES TO THE AREA WILL INCREASE THE ./ TAX BASE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES TO OFFSET THE INCREASED NEED FOR PUBLIC SERVICES. THE PROPOSED PRELIMINARY PLAT OF HONEY CREEK RIDGE WILL ADD 96 ADDITIONAL RESIDENCES TO THE AREA. AT AN ESTIMATED VALUATION OF $260,000 PER RESIDENCE, THE NEW DEVELOPMENT WILL INCREASE THE TAX BASE BY $24,960,000. THE 1989 MILL RATE FOR I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 18 THE AREA NEAR THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION BOUNDARY, WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS WAS .0128, WHICH WILL RESULT IN A REVENUE INCREASE OF $3194880. SOME OF THE INCREASED REVENUE WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE CITY OF RENTON WHICH WILL DETERMINE, THROUGH THE BUDGET PROCESS, WHERE THE INCREASED RESOURCES WILL BEST SERVE THE CITY. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT SOME OF THE INCREASED TAX REVENUE WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO MEET THE INCREASED DEMAND RESULTING FROM NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE AREA. 16. UTILITIES a.

I Date: S---3/-90 DAVID W. CASEY ~ I LAKERIDGE DEVELOPMEN~ I 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water;emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? I AS THE AREA DEVELOPS THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN STORMWATER RUNOFF, AND A SLIGHT INCREASE IN EMISSIONS TO THE AIR FROM AUTOMOBILES AND WOOD BURNING STOVES. I Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: I I I I NEW RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISIONS WILL PROVIDE ONSITE STORMWATER RETENTION/DETENTION FACILITIES. THE FACILITIES WILL BE DESIGNED USING THE 1990 KING COUNTY SURFACE WATER DESIGN MANUAL WHICH HAS BEEN ADOPTED BY THE CITY OF RENTON FOR ALL NEW PROJECTS. THE DESIGN METHODS IN THE NEW MANUAL SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES THE STORAGE REQUIREMENTS, AND DECREASES THE ALLOWABLE STORMWATER RELEASE RATE FOR NEW DEVELOPMENTS. PRIOR TO THE DISCHARGE OF ANY STORMWATER TO A NATURAL SYSTEM, THE STORMWATER WILL BE REQUIRED TO PASS THROUGH OIL/WATER SEPARATORS AND BIOFILTRATION. I I I I I I I -I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 19 THE USE OF CERTIFIED WOOD STOVES WOULD GREATLY REDUCE EMISSIONS TO THE AIR. HOWEVER, THERE ARE NO EXISTING CODES AND/OR ORDINANCES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE USE OF CERTIFIED WOOD STOVES ONLY. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? AS THE AREA DEVELOPS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SOME VEGETATION AND ANIMALS WILL BE DISPLACED. IT IS NOT ANTICIPATED THAT THE PROPOSAL WILL HAVE ANY IMPACT ON FISH OR MARINE LIFE. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or / marine life are: THE PROPOSAL WILL INCORPORATE A LARGE AREA INTO THE CITY THAT IS CURRENTLY DESIGNATED GREENBELT IN THE CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THE ANNEXATION WILL ENSURE THAT THE CITY WILL BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE GREENBELT AREA WITHIN CITY LIMITS. THE PRESERVATION OF THE GREENBELT WILL PROVIDE HABITAT FOR THE BIRDS AND SMALL MAMMALS THAT ARE DISPLACED WHEN THE UPLAND AREA DESIGNATED SINGLE FAMILY IS DEVELOPED. THE CITY OF RENTON IS CURRENTLY REQUIRING THAT ALL NEW DEVELOPMENTS PROVIDE A TREE PLAN AT THE PRELIMINARY PLAT REVIEW STAGE. THE TREE PLAN IS TO SHOW THE AREAS WHERE VEGETATION IS TO BE PRESERVED WITHIN THE SUBDIVISION. THE PRESERVATION OF SOME OF THE EXISTING TREES WITHIN THE NEW RESIDENTIAL AREAS WILL REDUCE THE DISPLACEMENT OF SONGBIRDS AND SQUIRELS. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? ENERGY RESOURCES WILL BE REQUIRED TO SUPPORT RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS WHEN THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED, HOWEVER, NO ENERGY OR NATURAL RESOURCE DEPLETION IS ANTICIPATED BY THE PROPOSAL. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISIONS COULD STRIVE FOR "SOLAR ORIENTATION", AND ALL CONSTRUCTION COULD BE REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH CURRENT ENERGY CONSERVATION CODES. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? THE PROPOSAL WILL INCORPORATE INTO THE CITY A LARGE AREA THAT THE PARKS DEPARTMENT DESIRES TO DEVELOP INTO A TRAIL SYSTEM AND TRAIL HEAD. THE AREA IS WITHIN THE DESIGNATED "GREENBELT" IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I CITY OF RENTON -ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST HONEY CREEK RIDGE ANNEXATION May 31, 1990 PAGE 20 WHEN THE PORTION OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AREA DESIGNATED SINGLE FAMILY DEVELOPS, MOST OF THE AREA THAT HAS SLOPES OF A SUSTAINED 40% OR GREATER WILL BE INCLUDED INTO THE GREENBELT DESIGNATION. MOST OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS WITHIN THE ANNEXATION AREA WILL BE PLACED IN OPEN SPACE OR WILL BECOME PART OF THE CITY OF RENTON PARKS DEPARTMENT. NONE OF THE AREA WITHIN THE ANNEXATION BOUNDARY IS KNOWN TO FALL UNDER GOVERNMENTAL PROTECTION. Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: THE INCORPORATION OF THE GREENBELT AREA INTO THE CITY LIMITS WILL HELP TO ENSURE IT'S PROTECTION AND INCORPORATION INTO THE PARKS DEPARTMENT TRAIL SYSTEM. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? . THE PROPOSAL IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND NO IMPACT TO LAND OR SHORELINE USES ARE ANTICIPATED. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: NO IMPACTS ARE ANTICIPATED. 6. How would the .proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? DEMANDS ON TRANSPORTATION, PUBLIC SERVICES, AND UTILITIES WILL ALL INCREASE SLIGHTLY AS THE AREA DEVELOPS. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such.demand(s) are: EACH DEVELOPMENT THAT OCCURS AS A RESULT OF THIS PROPOSAL SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE WITH THE CITY IN THE SUPPLYING OF THE NECESSARY TRANSPORTATION, PUBLIC SERVICES, AND UTILITIES TO SERVICE THE NEW RESIDENCES THAT CREATE THE INCREASED DEMANDS. SUCH MEASURES WOULD INCLUDE UPSIZING WATER MAIN LINES TO ENSURE ADEQUATE PRESSURE AND FIRE FLOW REQUIREMENTS, PARTICIPATING IN PROPOSED SANITARY SEWER L.I.D. PROJECTS,AND PROVIDING ADEQUATE AND SAFE ROADWAY ACCESS TO THE DEVELOPMENT AREAS. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. NO KNOWN CONFLICT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED BETWEEN THE PROPOSAL AND LOCAL, STATE, OR FEDERAL LAWS OR REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT.
