Because of the size of the scope for this project, Council authorized the Wastewater Utility to enter into a consultant contract with Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC to complete the initial pre -design effort. The pre -design portion of the engineering is now complete. Construction of the sewer improvements will take place jointly with a transportation project. In order to meet the timing for coordinating the design and construction of the sewer improvements, the Wastewater Utility is recommending that an addendum to the existing contract with Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC be authorized to provide final design services. RECOMMENDATION: • The Planning/Building/Public Works Department recommends that Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Addendum No. 1 to CAG-04-052, Engineering Consultant Contract with Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC in the amount of $90,550 for final design services for the Sunset Sewer Interceptor Phase III project. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: The Sunset Sewer Interceptor Phase III project was placed into the 2004 Capital Improvement Program due to the need to ensure sufficient capacity in our Sunset Blvd NE and Duvall Ave NE corridor service area. This includes the future sanitary sewer needs of this basin at full build -out. This project consists of the installation of approximately 7,200 linear feet of 12-inch to 18-inch sewer mains within the following streets: December 22, 2004 Page 2 Sunset Blvd NE: From Union Ave NE to the current eastern City limits. Duvall Ave NE: From Sunset Blvd NE to NE 24t1i St. The work program for the Wastewater Utility is very full this year with the other replacement and new sewer installation projects we have programmed. As such, we are recommending that this effort be performed by a consultant rather than by in-house staff. The final design effort for this year was planned and budgeted anticipating that a consultant would be used for this work and sufficient funds are contained within the Wastewater line item for Sanitary Sewer Main Extensions for this contract. cc: Lys Hornsby Dave Christensen HAFile Sys\WWP - WasteWater\WWP-27-3162 Sunset Interceptor Ph III\Final Design\AddendumNol—Issue Paper.docUHjw ADDENDUM NO. 1 CONSULTANT AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES for Sunset Interceptor, Phase 3, Design and Construction Services CAG-04-052 This Addendum is made and entered into this, day of , 20_, by and between the City of Renton, hereinafter called the "City", and Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC., whose address is, 2600 1 le Avenue NE, #100, Bellevue, WA 98004, hereinafter called the "Consultant'.

Walton, City Clerk Rothtlll_Addendum_01.doc Addendum/bh 12/99 Exhibit A-1 Scope of Services City of Renton December 17, 2004 EXHIBIT A-1 SCOPE OF SERVICES ADDENDUM No. 1 City of Renton Design- and Construction -Phase Services Sunset Interceptor, Phase 3 Roth Hill Engineering Partners, LLC Project No. 0015.00011.001 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE The City of Renton currently operates sanitary sewer systems on NE Sunset Boulevard and Duvall Ave NE with local collection sewers in adjacent developments, including a series of two lift stations (Stonegate and Summer Wind) to the northeast. Portions of the system in this area are nearing their capacity. As a result, and in conjunction with two proposed roadway improvement projects (Intersection of Duvall Ave NE / NE Sunset Boulevard and Duvall Ave NE from NE Sunset Boulevard to SE 951h Way), the City is preparing for replacement and/or upsizing of portions of this sewer system. The geographic limits of the proposed sewer replacements/upsizing are 1) on NE Sunset Boulevard from approximately 800 feet west to approximately 300 feet east of Duvall Ave NE, 2) on Duvall Ave NE crossing NE Sunset Boulevard, 3) across Duvall Ave NE at NE 21 n Street, and 4) on Duvall Ave NE from NE 23`d Street to NE 20 Street. Roth Hill is completing a preliminary engineering study of this system which is expected to be completed in January of 2005. Construction of the new sewer facilities is expected to be completed as portions of two separate transportation projects lead by the City. This scope of services also covers limited engineering services in support of City staff during construction. The purpose of construction services is to assist City staff during their administration of the contract. Specifically, this project involves: the completion of design plan, profile, and details; the preparation of specifications/bid documents based upon the City's standard boilerplate documents; and the preparation of an Opinion of Probable Construction Cost. This scope of services is expected to be added by addendum to the current professional services agreement for preliminary engineering services. This addendum includes modifications to the scope of services and fees for the preliminary engineering phase. The fees associated with each phase of this project are shown adjacent to the title of each phase below. They are based upon the estimated hours to complete the tasks described herein and the updated billing rates for the respective staff as described in Exhibit C-1, which is incorporated herein by this reference. The proposed schedule for this project will depend upon those of the two transportation projects under which this work will be completed, represented per our understanding by the attached Exhibit B-1. Exhibit A-1 Scope of Services City of Renton December 17, 2004 SCOPE OF SERVICES AND TASKS This scope of services is organized in three sub -sections, Additions to the Preliminary Engineering Phase, Design -Phase, and Construction -Phase services. It consists of the following tasks: ADDITIONS TO PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING PHASE A. Utility Locates $7,400 Due to the magnitude of this project, the number of existing utilities, and time of year, City staff were not able to provide utility locate painting for the City's facilities. Additionally, private utilities were not able provide locate painting on the schedule the project required. As such, City staff authorized Roth Hill to hire a utility locating subconsultant to complete these tasks. This was not covered in the original scope of services. The corresponding fees reflect the private locating subconsultant and Roth Hill's time to coordinate those services. B. Geotechnical Engineering Evaluation and Report $1,250 Roth Hill entered a subconsultant agreement with HWA Geosciences Inc. (HWA) for a geotechnical evaluation of this project. As described in the attached letter (Exhibit D-1) from HWA to Roth Hill dated October 11, 2004, encountered delays during the exploratory phase that were beyond their control. Their letter also describes proposed design -phase services described further below. C. Hydraulic Modeling $1,200 In the course of evaluating hydraulic scenarios with varying piping configurations, it was appropriate to also evaluate existing flow conditions for portions of the sewer system. The scope of services provided for varying piping configurations, but not varying flow conditions. The fees associated with the additional modeling cover the development of the scenario, the processing of the model, and the summary, summary, and presentation of the results. D. Preliminary Engineering and Analysis $1,600 Following the preparation of the final draft of the preliminary engineering report, City staff informed Roth Hill that they intended to reduce the proposed scope of the design to be only within the limits of the proposed transportation projects. City staff requested that Roth Hill obtain a copy of the transportation plans and analyze the effect of the changes on the design scope. Roth Hill will prepare a cover memo to the original report that clarifies the recent changes and outlines the proposed direction of the design projects. Total Additional Predesign Fees $11,450 2 Exhibit A-1 Scope of Services City of Renton December 17, 2004 II DESIGN PHASE SERVICES E.

No distinction is made here and none would be reflected on the invoices. Roth Hill recognizes that the City has an established process for administration of public works contracts with in-house staff. In the event design and engineering materials produced under this scope of services, and which have been stamped and sealed by Roth Hill, are used by the City in the construction contract documents, Roth Hill will be involved in the administration of the contract on a regular and consistent basis. Such involvement may include review of material and shop drawing submittals (if requested, not currently part of this scope of services), attendance of weekly or biweekly onsite meetings with the contractor during construction, receipt and review of copies of construction correspondence, and meetings with the contractor to discuss issues that arise during construction. Such involvement will be at such a level as to allow Roth Hill to continue to be aware of essential project issues throughout the period of the contract so as to allow Roth Hill to provide the City with input from the design engineer's perspective. Such involvement is intended to assist the City with identification of potential contract problems or potential contractor claims with as much forewarning as possible in order to develop a strategy for minimizing impact to the contractor and potential contractor claims. N. Geotechnical Engineering Support and Coordination $3,600 Support from the project geotechnical engineer may be required during construction. The following services may be required during construction and are incorporated into this addendum, but will only be initiated by written request from City staff.

Re: REQUEST FOR BUDGET ADDENDUM AND PROPOSAL FOR ADDITIONAL SCOPE SUNSET INTERCEPTOR PHASE III PROJECT RENTON, WASHINGTON Dear Mr. Goss: This letter is to confirm our formal request for an extension of our budget for geotechnical engineering services with regard to Sunset Interceptor Phase III project. In addition, we provide herein, a proposal and cost estimate for additional geotechnical services at your request. Budget Extension This extension request is based on our incurring additional labor expenses for exploration after our driller was told by a representative of WSDOT to stop drilling. This resulted in a 2-hour delay which essentially cost us Driller's standby time and our field labor while the misunderstanding was resolved (we had a valid permit for work issued by the City of Renton). This delay was compounded when the resulting lost time required drilling to continue an - additional day. We have essentially completed all work except for issuing the final report, and are $605.05 over budget. At this time, we do not expect any significant additional changes will be made to the report and that the only charges to accrue in the future are those involved with final publication. We expect publication charges to be about $300. Therefore, we request that our budget be emended to include an additional $905. We trust that the foregoing is relatively straightforward, and that our request will be approved expeditiously. However, if you have any questions or require any clarification, please contact us at your earliest convenience. Pavement Evaluation At your request we have prepared a proposed scope and budget for additional geotechnical services required for a limited evaluation of the existing pavement conditions above the sewer alignment along NE Sunset Boulevard. During our field investigation we found -` _ ___ _. pavement sections were highly variable in thickness. Without additional evalual know whether these sections were required because of poor subgrade condition: the result of localized surface leveling requirements. We anticipate that even if pipe -bursting techniques are used exclusively, some amount of roadway surface disruption will be necessary to repair excavations made for pipe bursting access October 11, 2004 HWA Project No. 2004-052 ports, manholes, service laterals, or removal of bursting heads due to obstructions. Therefore, it would be prudent to know up -front what a typical replacement section consists of and whether different sections are required at different locations. Our proposed scope for these additional services is outlined below. SCOPE OF SERVICES Based on our understanding of your requirements, we propose to conduct a study that includes the following tasks: 1. Undertake Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) testing at intervals of about 100 feet in the outer wheel paths of the traveled lane above the sewer alignment (;:--4800 feet total). 2. Drill 8 core holes to a nominal depth of 1.0 foot below the road pavement structure to determine the thickness of the pavement surfacing and base layers, and assess the subgrade conditions. 3. Perform geotechnical and pavement engineering analyses and evaluate data derived from the subsurface investigation and laboratory testing program. 4. Prepare a draft geotechnical report summarizing the results of the investigation (including soil profiles, and estimates of subgrade resilient modulus and subsurface, infiltration capacity), and provide recommendations for road pavement structure for the repair sections for installation of buried utilities. Submit four copies of the draft geotechnical report for commentary. 5. Revise the draft geotechnical report, as appropriate to address the comments, and submit four copies of a final report stamped by a licensed professional engineer. REQUIRED SERVICES/INFORMATION • City to provide right of entry and all necessary Street (State Highway) Use Permits. Gray & Osborne to provide data on anticipated future traffic for design of road repair sections. COST ESTIMATE Based on our understanding of the project and assumed conditions, we propose to provide the above geotechnical services on a time and expense basis. The cost of the services proposed herein, is estimated to be about $7,200.

Re: PROPOSAL FOR ADDITIONAL SCOPE AND BUDGET ADDENDUM SUNSET INTERCEPTOR PHASE III PROJECT RENTON, WASHINGTON Dear Mr. Goss: Further to our recent telephone discussion, this letter is to outline additional work scope and budgetary requirements for geotechnical engineering services with regard to the Sunset Interceptor Phase III project. More specifically, as discussed, it is envisaged that you will require some assistance with preparation and review of final plans and specifications, as they relate to geotechnical engineering aspects of the project. Additionally, we have outlined a scope of work to assist you with review of and response to contractor questions during the contract bidding period, and post -award for review of contractor submittals and RFIs. You also indicated that you wished to have a scope outlined for vibration monitoring during pipe bursting operations. Additional Work Scope We anticipate providing geotechnical engineering input to development and review of final plans and specifications, for aspects involving geotechnical matters. Additionally, during the contract advertisement period, we expect that some contractor questions will arise, requiring our formal response. During construction, geotechnical monitoring and inspections will be required to ensure that the construction is proceeding pursuant to the requirements of the plans and specifications. At the outset of construction, contractor submittals for procedures and materials approvals will occur, and it is expected to involve geotechnical engineering review and response. As construction progresses, RFIs may be submitted by the contractor and will also require review and response, and we anticipate a modest involvement in these processes. However, we have not made allowance for the provision of on -site inspection and/or testing services that may be required during the construction period. If this is desired, we have the capabili such services and would be pleased to submit an additional detailed proposal a estimate, when the work scope and duration become better defined. Pipe bursting is expected to be a method of trenchless pipe installation technology that will be employed on this project. As this method is associated with ground vibrations that might be potentially objectionable and/or damaginj to adjoining properties and occupants thereof, vibration monitoring may be November 22, 2004 HWA Project No. 2004-052 desirable or necessary to ensure that the interests of the of all parties are satisfied. Alternatively, adjustments may have to be adopted, or mitigation measures deployed to compensate for undesirable effects. Accordingly, we anticipate that vibration monitoring will be performed at the outset of pipe bursting operations, and vibration levels will be measured on critical adjoining facilities for a one -day period. Depending on the levels of vibrations experienced, additional vibration data collection may be warranted on one or more subsequent days. On conclusion of the vibration monitoring, all data will be downloaded from the monitoring units, compiled in suitable evaluation and presentation format and analyzed. A brief report will be provided in respect to the significance of the vibration levels. As indicated previously, however, the data will be scrutinized as it is recorded to determine if any undesirable/damaging vibration levels are occurring, such that mitigating adjustments may be made in the operations, if necessary. COST ESTIMATE Based on our understanding of the project and assumed conditions, we propose to provide the above geotechnical services on a time and expense basis. The cost of the services proposed herein, is estimated to be about $9,300 in total. This is broken down on the attached spreadsheet, and is based on individual costs of approximately $1,600 for review of plans and specifications; $2,300 for review of and response to contractor submittals; and $5,300 for the vibration monitoring for the start-up day. As indicated, if additional vibration data collection is required, this may be performed at an additional per diem cost of $1,000, including the operator and monitoring units. However, if during the evaluation unexpected conditions are revealed, or you request analyses and evaluations which would require a level of effort beyond the proposed scope of our work and budget, we will contact you immediately to discuss any necessary modifications to our scope of services and/or budget estimates. We appreciate the opportunity to continue to be of service on this project.

Date: December 23, 2004 To: Planning & Development Committee, Dan Clawson, Chair From: Jean Rollins P cc. Rebecca Lind, Planning Manager RE: Transfer of Density Credits within Urban Separators ILL U 2 7 2004 CITY OF RENTCN DEC 2004 FCEIVFn CITY CLE-R,"'S OFFICE Recently a citizen suggested the City of Renton consider transfer of development density credits within the May Valley Urban Separator. It is not appropriate to consider any kind of transfer of development credits between non-contiguous real estate parcels within urban separators. Lot line adjustments, common ownership and coordinated development of contiguous parcels will give ample opportunity for a fair financial return on the original property purchase cost, if any. The goal is to maintain the spirit, intent and integrity of the urban separator, - not maximize development! It is important to keep in focus that King County development regulations require at least 50% open space, not a maximum of 50% ! Why allow opportunists to buy severely constrained properties (within the creek buffer, for example) at low prices and then transfer that density on to the upper slopes of the urban separator, thereby exacerbating the environmental problems especially storm surface water, erosion, sedimentation, flooding, loss of habitat, etc. Briefly, the following supports the position of no transfer of development credits (rights) between real estate parcels within the May Valley Urban Separator: A. The initial Urban Separator identification & designation, i.e. its very purpose. B. City of Renton Development Code. C. May Creek Basin Action Plan. i. Stormwater volumes ii. Locally Significant Resource Area (LSRA) iii. Effect of uplands development on the lowlands. D. City of Kent Development Regulations in Urban Separators E. King County Transfer of Density Credits Program In more detail the arguments against density transfers within urban separators, especially the May Valley Separator are as follows: A. Urban Separator Identification & Designation: Urban separators were initially identified because of environmentally sensitive issues, access restrictions and a relatively light development pattern. There was also the additional goal of creating a sense of community definition and boundaries between cities within the Urban Growth Area. The May Creek Urban Separator is in the heart of the bustling real estate market on the east side and south King County. Yet through all the past waves of development booms the area has remained undeveloped. One primary reason is that professional real estate developers recognized the issues of access and physical constraints, e.g. steep slopes, wetlands, erosion hazards, and the very fact that May Creek bisects it. The physical constraint of the creek bisecting properties or limiting access to properties is well known by local property owners. This is not flat, dry buildable land and it should not be retrofitted with density transfers. It is not appropriate to create an opportunity where physically and environmentally constrained parcels (particularly within the minimum 100 foot creek buffer) are purchased at cheap prices with the idea that development transfers could be used to build more houses in the immediate uplands. This would create more impervious surfaces, light and noise pollution. Such a scenario would ultimately result in a net loss of open space within the urban separator. An example is our own property which was purchased in 1983. During purchase negotiations the seller readily disclosed that the north-west corner of the property was inaccessible due to its land locked location and the nearby creek. That area, about 3/4 of an acre was duly recognized in the asking price. It was not then nor is it now our expectation to sell the possible density credit of that piece. It was open space then, it is open space now and so it should remain. Several other constrained parcels along the creek have been short platted many years ago by the original property owners in an effort to reduce taxes or in the hopes to sell to contiguous property owners that had easier access. Some constrained low value parcels have been passed on through inheritance or purchased very cheaply by speculators. In the latter cases these folks have invested a small amount of money in hopes of a long shot windfall even while acknowledging the inherent access and flood hazard issues. These properties can still be included in future redevelopment of contiguous parcels. There is no need to create an opportunity to transfer density elsewhere. Nothing has been lost nor taken away. B. City of Renton Development Code: The city's own development code is one of the strongest arguments against any non- contiguous parcel density transfers. Firstly, the code excludes sensitive areas from the net developable area. That is, Renton does not permit any form of density transfers related to the constraints of critical areas. Technically a density bonus is already being considered within the urban separator in return for certain platting configurations and development conditions, namely clustering away from the contiguous open space corridor, reforestation agreements and no fences. If a developer does not want to abide by these conditions then critical areas and roads will be deducted from developable area to calculate maximum number of dwelling units permitted as is the case elsewhere in Renton. C. May Creek Basin Action Plan (MCBAP) : The MCBAP argues against development bonuses and density transfers. The basin plan supports this position through its recognition of the effect of uplands development on the lowlands, particularly within the Locally Significant Resource Areas (LSRA) of the basin. Recommendation # 17 of the plan specifies no density bonuses. "Density bonuses provided under development incentive programs should not be approved ...in areas of the basin draining to May Creek or any of its tributaries upstream of the Coal Creek Parkway bridge." (MCBAP Page 3-27) i. Stormwater Volumes: "The basin plan recommends solving problems at their source when feasible and suggests some land use prescriptions and development restrictions toward this end." (MCBAP Page 1-2) Gregg Zimmerman, Administrator Planning/Building/Public Works wrote to Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, then Council President, in a memorandum dated April 8, 1997. "A primary issue that has been raised with regard to zoning for this area is the hydrologic affect of increased development in May Creek and adjacent areas. The May Creek Current & Future Conditions Report notes "even if R/D (retention/detention) ponds were required for all future development, their effectiveness in reducing May Valley floods would be limited because the May Valley problem is primarily controlled by volume, the R/D ponds could delay but not greatly reduce the total volume of storm water delivered into May Valley." (Page 1-3)" On April 14, 1997, Clint Loper, May Creek Basin Action Plan project manager, testified at a City of Renton hearing regarding the May Valley pre -zone. He stated, "the lower basin area experiences extreme flooding and erosion problems, and that one concern is preservation of salmon runs in May Creek." Further, he explained that; "the only solution is to limit development in this environmentally sensitive area, since the type of soil prevalent in May Valley precludes even storm water retention/detention ponds from completely preventing damage attributable to storm water runoff." Since May Creek is a volume driven stream, the May Creek Basin problem is primarily effected by surface water volume. Surface water is not con__trollable in the May Creek basin. The May Creek Conditions Report states: "Mitigation will be ineffective at reducing flood peaks and volumes in May Valley." (Page 5-42) The Basin plan offers NO capital improvement/engineering solutions to reduce future storm water flows and the subsequent flooding, erosion, sedimentation and habitat loss. County engineers at the May Creek Basin workshops stated there are no capital improvements to fix the surface water problems, not regional R/D ponds, not tight - lining the storm water in pipes, nothing! Also, the engineers have made it clear that the standard site specific engineering solutions will not control the volume of surface water. Even if developers meet surface water controls and requirements, the basin's conditions will worsen. This is why the basin plan had little choice but to look to land use recommendations. The "Summary of Findings for Main Plan Issues" dated 4-1-97 states; "Based on ...staff recognition that zoning, rather than drainage requirements, has the greatest effect on total runoff volumes (the primary upstream contributor to increased May Valley flooding) the revised plan will explicitly recommend against increases in zoning in all areas draining to the valley." This type of recommendation is highly warranted because present surface water management technology does not provide feasible solutions for this basin. Transferring of development from one parcel to another effectively increases zoning density on the receiving parcel. If that parcel is up -stream or up -slope the increased amount of the impervious surfaces and hence run-off exacerbates down -stream down -slope problems. ii. Locally Significant Resource Area Designation LSRA): River Mile .2 to 3.9 on May Creek is designated a LSRA. " As defined by King County, LSRAs have significant aquatic habitat value and provide important areas for plants and wildlife. LSRAs could be affected by further erosion resulting from continuing destabilization of these sites." (MCBAP Page 3-23) River mile 3.9 is included in the May Valley Urban Separator and as such needs greater care when crafting development code. iii. Effect of uplands development on lowlands: "The density of upland development is a key contributing factor to the flooding that occurs in May Valley." (MCBAP Page 1-5) "While constructed infiltration facilities are ineffective due to poorly percolating soil types in most areas of the basin, analysis has shown that maintaining portions of the developed site in existing vegetation is also an effective means of controlling stormwater volumes. The forest lands that are retained store rainfall with the forest canopy and the forest duff layer, allowing significant evaporation and natural infiltration in to the groundwater system" (MCBAP Page 3-6) Renton Planning Commission clearly recognized the impact of upland development during the pre -zone process. A Planning Commission's memorandum dated February 19, 1997 from then Chair, Eugene Ledbury, to City Council states; "Development on the uplands is anticipated to have at least as great an impact on the hydrology of the basin as development on the valley floor and in the vicinity of May Creek." Severe problems already exist in this area which is presently only lightly developed. The constriction of the valley greatly exacerbates the current and future problems. The unique physical features make it imperative that the uplands development within the urban separator be treated the same as the lowlands. Certainly no density transfers from other parcels within the urban separator, - or from anywhere else for that matter. The development of uplands by simple gravity, adds volumes of water, and is exacerbated due to the soil types and proximity of the uplands to the lowlands. The uplands soils do not facilitate infiltration. As the water moves over the uplands the force of gravity causes the water to pick up more soil, generating more silt than would be the case in the relatively flat lowlands. The only way to reduce future stormwater volumes is to limit development both on the valley floor and the immediate uplands, which dump water onto the valley floor, otherwise the valley floor will be lost to flooding and severe erosion. For all of the properties in the May Valley Urban Separator land use must be across the board, so that all property rights are equally recognized. In a perfect world, the property rights of the lowlands would be held above that of the uplands as the lowlands are forced to bear the brunt of the basin's surface water problems. Therefore there should be no preferential development regulations that add to the density of upland properties. To maintain equality the surface water burden should be equally distributed with no density transfers. D. City of Kent Development Regulation within Urban Separators: An example of how a neighboring city regulates development within urban separators is enlightening. The City of Kent development code in urban separators requires that the 50% open space tracts be unconstrained. Thus acting as a further buffer to the critical areas. First they subtract the environmentally critical areas, then they require 50% of the remaining property to be set aside as permanent open space tracts. That is, Kent does not include the critical areas as part of the 50% open space tracts E. King County Transfer of Density Credits Program: (a.) Finally, the King County Transfer of Density Credits Program, excludes certain areas as well. This program, "requires a discount in credits for the portion of the parcel that is unbuildable because of certain kinds of sensitive areas or other encumbrances in the urban area. All rural and urban sending sites are allocated development credits predicated on base -zoned density, minus any portion of the site already used to calculate residential development thereon, in a conservation easement, or other similar encumbrance or containing submerged lands." In addition the base density is reduced by 75% for any Class I and 2 wetlands, streams, steep slopes, and their buffers, and is reduced 100% for regional utility corridors or other areas required by the County to remain undeveloped. Further King County is so deeply concerned regarding densities in urban separators that they made them sending sites. Properties in urban separators can not be receiving sites of any density transfer. This coming from a county philosophy that believes housing density should be very compact within the urban growth boundary. (Some would even argue too dense, too compact. Example, some of the unincorporated areas on the eastern edge of cities such as Renton and Kent.) Summary The position of no transfer of development credits within the May Valley Urban Separator is strongly supported by: • A. Urban Separator Identification & Designation • B. City of Renton Development Code. • C. May Creek Basin Action Plan. • D. City of Kent Development Regulations in Urban Separators • E. King County Transfer of Density Credits Program Permitting a transfer of development credits would allow developers to pick and choose already constrained properties within the creek buffer, on steep slopes or erosion hazard areas thus permitting more density. These buffers, other constraints, and the inaccessibility of some of the parcels are adding to the overall value and function of the urban separator. These facts were taken in to consideration when the urban separator was designated. The extreme environmental sensitivity of the May Creek basin, demands that highly stringent requirements be employed which reflect the most recent knowledge and technology in the storm water management. However, it would seem from the May Creek Basin Current and Future Conditions Report and the May Creek Basin Action Plan that technology can't come to the rescue. The problem is simply a matter of storm water volume. Further development no matter how high-tech the R/D system used, will still exacerbate the flooding. erosion, sedimentation and habitat loss in the basin. Present construction practices such as retention ponds and bio-filtration swales are not enough to prevent further degradation of this valuable resource. Allowing the regionally designated urban separator to be more than minimally developed will only add to the already difficult problems. Please do not allow transfer of development from one parcel to another within the urban separators. Thank you, Sincerely, Je n Rollins a Q605-- idl3'd Rmzir-, ixos9 (a.)

Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 Madam Mayor and City Council: CITY OF P ivTON DEC 2 9 2gn4 As many of you know, the Spirit of Washington Dinner Train has been interested in entering into an agreement with the City of Renton, to operate the Pavilion Building as a venue for meeting and events. Our experience in catering, event planning, and property management (we manage over 8,000 acres, including property with tenants), make us an excellent candidate for this use. Some members of the Council have asked me to reiterate my interest in this property, so let me first say emphatically, we are still very interested. I was also asked to briefly outline our vision of this agreement, and am happy to do so. Our goal would be to maximize the positive community impact of this facility by creating the best South End meeting and event venue. We envision uses such as: • Community Events - Haunted House, Easter Egg Hunts, and Wine Tasting • Educational Events - Seminars, Lectures, and Cooking Classes • Charity Events - Fundraising for Schools and other Local Charities • Public Education - Displays Chronicling the History of Renton • Business Events --Job Fairs and Training Seminars • Special Events - Weddings and Celebrations The benefits to the City of Renton include: • We would pay monthly rent • We would assume the utilities and other operating expenses for the building • We would share the revenue received from our activities • There would be no "out of pocket" expenses for the City for TI or marketing • Increased visibility and a resulting positive regional impact for downtown • We would be willing to discuss other retailers setting up in the building • We would require a relatively short lease term, thereby freeing up the space for future development plans As you work towards finalizing the City's plans for the future of the Pavilion, I hope this information helps clarify our goals for this property. I would appreciate meeting with any or all of you, to answer any additional questions you may have. Sincerely yours, Eric Temple President, Spirit of Washington Inc. P.O.

It's nice that you had a chance to seethe duplex at 1710 Harrington Avenue. You are correct that when we work together, good things happen. One point I want to stress is there are similarities linking the duplex and the Hoffman house at 4307 N.E. 10th Place. They both were posted by the code compliance group as "do not occupy" for over four years before you took action to help us bring these community safety issues to a conclusion. If you had not helped us, these two issues would still be alive and well. Don the overall perception by the residents who input complaints to the city is that the Renton City Code Compliance process has no creditability and needs to be replaced with a process as good as the ones in Kirkland and Bellevue. Our association feels it is not should not be necessary for us continue to bring these neighborhood safety issues to you or any body else on the council for mitigation. They want a process in place that is responsive to the community's requests for help. One that provides timely and continued feedback (documented) back to who called it in. Robert submitted documentation to you that he has pulled together from other municipalities. We are inclined to believe that the modification to the current Renton Code Compliance process without community input that we will once again have another dead ended process that is not conducive to the needs of the community that it is designed to serve. Words above are just food for consideration, but back to the Hoffman House. What the Highlands community Association needs most right now is an abatement schedule from Gregg Zimmerman. One that has some teeth in it. I am just reiterating what Robert is asking you also to do. We want someone identified who we can contact that can and will provide us with updated information as to the progress the city is making in eliminating this outrage in our neighborhood. Our perception is that if you do not have you ask for an abatement schedule from city administration (and status back to you also) we will not get one. An example why we need you to ask is that at the October 25th, 2004 council meeting our association Don Persson - Re- Pictures of Hoffman House at 4307 N.E. 10th Place Page 2 president presented documented photographs and formal letter of the safety issues on Harrington and 8th place (side walk and city drain) that was excepted by the council and given to the city administration for evaluation and response back to us. Subsequently not one person from the city has bothered to give us status on this issue or bothered to communicate officially (with a letter) back to our association. In that this issue includes a disabled blind person asking for help, we need to make every effort to see that the sidewalk and city drain is replaced as quickly as possible. This is just another complaint that has been turned into the code compliance group over the last few years from the local residents and still nothing has been done about it. Don, once again our association thanks you for you intervention in bringing these important community safety issues to a successful conclusion. Hopefully in the near future we can say that we now have a code compliance process that works and is excepted by the community as a whole.

Well needless to say what a difference in the place, so knew I was at the wrong house. But glad I was able to see what can happen when we all work together. I did go by and talk to two of the neighbors on N.E. 10th PI., and got an earful, deservedly so. But like I told them this is the first that the council knew of this problem and am sure it will get some attention now. thanks for bringing this to our attention Don Persson - Re: Pictures of Hoffman House at 4307 N.E. 10th Place Page 3 >>> "Terry G Persson" <terrypersson@msn.com<mailto:terrypersson@msn.com>> 12/26/04 2:06 PM Don, thanks for your concern. Yes the house has been empty for many years. If you can, please don't just drive by, get out of the car and walk up to the front door. From a distance you can not see all the problems with the house. Just to the left of the front door the entire wall (next to the fireplace) has dry rotted out and kids and others are breaking into the house. This is a nice neighborhood and the people for many years have been asking the code compliance group at the Renton City Hall to help them. I been in the construction business for many years and this house is a boarder line case as to gut it out to bring it back into code compliance with the city or tear it down and build a new one. In it's current condition it is not worth very much. think you can be the catalyst to get this community safety problem fixed. The duplex you helped us with at 1710 Harrington Avenue N.E. was sold and is now rebuilt and looks great. Again thanks for you concern and help, the Homeowners on N.E. 10th will really appreciate anything you can do for them. One of our Highlands Community Board members (Robert McDaniel) lives directly across from this house. Don, if you like, please give me a call and I will meet you there.

Included is a breif summary of their intake procedures and a flow of what can take plaSN OF RENTC)N for a dangerous building. I like their home page much better than the City of Rentons. I wondeA�N 0 3 2005 ours could be RECENED CITY CL PK S OFF(CE improved and more user friendly. I realize that the City of Bellevue is a much larger city and therefor has a much larger budget. So I'm not sure what can be done about it. From what I have gathered is the flows of procedures code compliance is very similar to the City of Rentons. They are alike in many ways. I suspect what occured at 4307 N.E. 10th Place was a lack of followup. The City of Bellevue has six code inforcement officers and a much larger legal department to rely on and a dedicated attorney to help them. Also there is an assigned supervisor who is also an officer. They are also allowed to think "outside of the box". If they need help in any way they get it without question. In talking to Bob Arthur and Paul Baker I found them both time constrained. They both belong to a larger brain trust. Washington Assocciation of Code Enforcement. Alot of time has been lost at the house in question. This could drag out another year if it needs to go to a superior court for abatement. I understand that the property owner is ultimately responsible for this, but code enforcement could have done a much better job in getting him to preform and neither you or the city council would be envolved in this matter. Terry Persson has the idea "the system is broken" and I believe this is rooted in personel preformance. As a former City of Bellevue employee myself I have a certain expectation of what public servants can do for the citizens he works for. I believe the City of Bellevue has a great system in place and I'm proud to have had the opportunity to work for them. This is the driving force of my concerns of the time line that took place here. By the way the code enforcement officer I talked to gave me all the time needed and all the imformation I asked for. I hope what's included will help you or the council in making directions as needed. Would you please keep Terry and I informed if possible. It would mean a deal to us both. Robert McDaniel Att�kr tkoj Complaintant can either call or go online to make a complaint. If a compliance officer takes the call by phone then all of the information is placed in the complaint form by them. The officer is responsible for filling in the form from the information gathered from the complaintant. The reason for this is that most people would find this task undisireable and made easier if the officer does it and likely more accurate. A case number is then assigned. This number would come from the building and land use computer. They piggy back on it if you will. This case number is given an added prefix such as ENF-xxxxxxx. Indicating enforcement. It then becomes trackable by anyone with that number and progress monitored by even the complaintant. The officer then can add a classification or issue catagory to the form i.e. aircraft noise. Which officer that is assigned the case depends on the location of the violation. The city is sectioned into districts. How many districts depends on how many officers there are. Depending on the issue catagory determines how quick the responce needs to be. Public safety requires a 24 hour responce. Others generally take one to three days. Once the appropriate officer is assigned the case he operates under a therory of whats reasonable. A case for a dangerous Building is supplied. Not an Official Document In brief, procedures generally followed in the case of a Dangerous Building City receives complaint Complaint assigned to Code Compliance District Officer and Case number assigned through database. Officer responds within 24 firs (workdays) if possible if life safety issue Officer assesses structure, is there unsecured entry points ?, is the home /structure unoccupied ? Is there signs of unlawful entry by children, vagrants ? Talk to complainants and or neighbors for background Check with the Police Department, have they been here before and for what if they can say... If unsure if occupied or not, call Police to do a building search With Police check perimeter if suspicious activity or checking welfare of resident Post premises as unsafe to occupy if such as determined by Officer, Supervisor and/or Building Official Research owner and taxpayer information Contact owner, order verbally to secure structure within 1 to 3 days and follow up with written notice. In some cases, fencing of the perimeter with a temporary fence that can be rented may be in order. In extreme cases of structural failure, a Building Official may deem the house to be not only boarded, but ordered to be demolished. Check to see if structure was secured on compliance date As information develops let complainants know of progress and/or obstacles If not secured, re -contact owner and issue a Civil Violation Notice which sets monetary penalties and a hearing date. If need be, Code Compliance Officer may consult with Legal Advisor, Legal Department and Building Official for supporting documents or advice. Especially, when needing to show cause for an Attractive Nuisance. If failure to comply by 48 hours prior to hearing date, then proceed with hearing whether owner shows or not. Request Hearing Examiner to authorize an Abatement Order to allow the City to petition Superior Court for right of entry and abatement with costs to be charged to property owner. ( note: The Super Court Hearing can take 6 months or more to get on Docket ) If granted case goes to Legal Department to pursue the Super Court Docket and Order Once Order received, put abatement out to bid. Hire contractor and have contractor perform the work, i.e. securing the structure. City pays, contractor and bills owner. If owner fails to pay then send bill to City contracted collection agency to collect. What if you can not locate the owner... trying all resources in internet, and legal research by the legal department searching court documents.. if trail is dead, then a private investigator may need to be hired to locate the owner. We use a particular agency that is very reputable. In most cases for us, the owner complies. We try to secure compliance via voluntary compliance and we try to treat the violators as our customers as best we can and help them in any way to accomplish compliance. We try to move as quick as possible on these cases, but sometimes it is not under our control, especially in the case of an abatement request through superior court, which can be a long wait.

Wondering why they let the yard go? One Bellevue neighbor decided to use a friendly approach to find out why the yard was not being maintained. The neighbor was suprised to learn that the neighbor was ill and the lawn was the last thing on his neighbor's mind. An offer to cut the grass was welcomed and brought a smile to his neighbor's face. An act of kindness resolved the concern. A Bellevue woman was overwhelmed by the amount of junk she had accumulated over the years. With no family or friends in the area, she was at a loss at what to do. A neighbor spoke with her gently about the blight which was visible to all and helped to put her in touch with a community service organization. The organization sent volunteers to the home and removed all of the junk —to the delight of the neighborhood_ Neighbors brought outdoor plants to the Bellevue woman's home and asked if they could plant them for her_ It was the spring she would never forget. City's Pilot Program to Achieve "Neighborhood Fitness" Inspires Success in East Lake Hills Neighborhood In the spring of 2001, the Code Compliance Section partnered with the Neighborhood Outreach Team to develop a pilot program to address growing aesthetic and visual concerns of this 1950s, thoughtfully planned suburban neighborhood. In the first step we asked the citizens what their concerns were so the city could address them properly. A survey was sent to every household in the target area of 380 households. The results of the survey helped shape the elements of the pilot program. City staff were given the opportunity to seek creative solutions. Code Compliance saw a need for empowering the neighborhood to improve visual aesthetics. The city provided a garage sale day and a clean-up day co -sponsored by Rabanco Co.
