NI ;90 , 05-3 May 15, 2000 Elizabeth Higgins City of Renton Planning 1055 South Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 Dear Elizabeth, We would like to be sure the current turnaround at the gate on Beacon Way SE at Phillip Arnold Park, be maintained for school bus access when this development is being designed, and built. Due to the nature of the neighborhood, this turnaround is a requirement to ensure the safety of the buses, pedestrians, and vehicles. School buses need to have sufficient radius to be able to turn around without backing the vehicle (WAC 392-145). We would ask for a minimum outside radius of 55 feet. If you have any questions, or need for clarification, please contact me at (425) 204-4455. Sincerely, Kevin Oleson Operations Manager Transportation Department Eliia ig.gins Phillip Arnold � � w � Page 11 From: "Kevin Oleson"<koleson @ renton.wednet.edu> To: <Ehiggins@ci.renton.wa.us> Date: 9/6/02 10:29AM p�J-" Subject: Phillip Arnold Hi Elizabeth, We are wondering why our request of May 15,2000 (which I am attaching a copy of)was not placed on the developer as a requirement,as has been done with other developments within the city.We specifically requested a turnaround be maintained for the buses,to the point of stating our required radius. The current situation places us in violation of WAC 392-145, and greatly increases the potential for an accident to occur.

':" _: Economic Development, Neighborhoods and Planning Jesse Tanner,Mayor Susan Carlson,Administrator • September 6, 2002 Mr. Kevin Oleson, Operations Manager Renton School District 403 Transportation Department 1220 North 4th Street Renton,WA 98055 Re: Renton Hill School Bus Turnaround Dear Mr. Oleson This letter is sent in response to your query regarding the Renton Hill bus turnaround. Your letter of May 15, 2000, was received by the Development Services Department with other comments on the proposed project. As a result of the comments received, a"hold" was placed on the proposed project on May 26, 2000. The applicant submitted revised plans in September 2000. Because the plans were substantially different, we again requested comments on the project and received them between September 15th and 29a`. You requested that the"turnaround at the gate on Beacon Way SE at Phillip Arnold Park"be maintained. We verified that Beacon Way SE,the gate, and'the park entry were not going to be affected by the proposed development. We did,not understand,however, that your request also included school district property; which was at that time under option for purchase by Bennett Development. 0 There were many discussions held with Seattle Public Utilities regarding use of the SPU Cedar River Pipeline Easement(Beacon Way SE). SPU representatives reminded us many times that . there were no agreements recorded as to use of the 100 foot wide Easement. This includes use of the Easement for residents whose homes front on Beacon Way SE as well as for access to Philip Arnold Park. Because of this situation, there is no public right-of-way that could have been legally"expanded" to include a portion of the development property. The City of Renton, including the Park Department,has no control over what happens on Beacon Way SE. It is regrettable that we did not have a full understanding of the issue. If we had understood that buses turned around on school district property,we would have recommended that an easement be requested by the school district prior to sale of the property to Bennett Homes. Sincerely Elizabeth Higgins, AICP Senior Planner Cc: John Thompson Neil Watts 1055 South Grady Way- Renton, Washington 98055 CITY OF-RENTON MEMORANDUM • DATE: September 25, 2000 TO: Elizabeth Higgens FROM: Arneta Henninger X7298 SUBJECT: HERITAGE PHILLIP ARNOLD PLAT APPLICATION LUA 00-053 S 7TH CT AND BEACON WAY SE I have reviewed the preapplication submittal for this 57 lot plat located in Section 20, Twp. 23N Rng. 5E, and have the following comments.

The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site. Land use in the surrounding area is characterized by single-family residences. Two tunnels from abandoned coal mines underlie the site. Historical research revealed that the northern portion of the site was excavated, then filled with imported material that included construction debris. This assessment did not reveal any recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject property. A discussion of the scope of our work, our site observations, and our conclusions are contained in this report. 2.0 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of our Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment of the Heritage Arnold property at Beacon Way Southeast in Renton, Washington. 2.1 Special Terms and Conditions The scope of work for our review of this site did not include the examination, sampling, or analysis of subsurface soil or groundwater on the site for potential environmental contaminants. If new information is developed in future site work, which may include excavations, borings, or studies, Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be given the opportunity to review the findings, re-evaluate the conclusions of this report, and provide amendments as required. 2.2 Purpose and Scope Of Work The purpose of an environmental assessment is to satisfy one of the requirements to qualify for the innocent landowner defense in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA): that is, to make "all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial or customary practice." Our scope of work and the limitations of our study are consistent with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Designation E 1527: Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase 9 Environmental Site Assessment Process. The objective of a Phase 1 assessment is to minimize potential future liability for environmental problems by demonstrating that at the time this report was prepared, the owner, holder, or buyer had no knowledge or reason to know that any hazardous substance had been released or disposed on, in, at, or near the property. An additional objective of the Phase 1 assessment is to identify potential contamination sources. The goal of the processes established by the ASTM is to identify recognized environmental conditions. The term "recognized environmental conditions" means the presence, or likely GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 2 presence, of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or the material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. The term includes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not intended to include de minimis conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm to public health or the environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of the appropriate governmental agencies. Our study included: • • A review of the chronology of ownership and site history, using county assessor records, archival property record cards, recent and historical maps, and aerial photography as primary resources. An attempt was made to identify possible former industries or uses presenting some probability of generating waste, which may have included dangerous or hazardous substances, as defined by state and federal laws and regulations. • A reconnaissance of the property to look for evidence of potential contamination in the form of soil stains, odors, vegetation stress, discarded drums, or discolored water. • The acquisition and review of available reports and other documentation pertaining to the subject property or nearby sites. • A review of a search by Vista Information Services, Inc. (VIS) of available state and federal government records. VIS reported those sites and businesses that are located within the minimum search distances specified by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Designation E 1527. Additionally, through observations made during our site reconnaissance, we attempted to identify local topographic conditions that may influence the potential for regulated facilities to adversely impact the subject property. 3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION AND RECONNAISSANCE 3.1 Location and Legal Description The subject property is an approximately triangular-shaped parcel of land that covers 10.36 acres. It is located on a plateau approximately one-half mile southeast of downtown Renton. The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site. The property is situated in the northeast quarter of Section 20, Township 23 North, Range 5 East, • Willamette Meridian, in King County, Washington. The tax identification number, as recorded by the King County Assessor's Office, is 202305-9110. 3.2 Site and Vicinity Characteristics An environmental engineer from our firm visited the site on September 1, 1999 to observe on-site conditions and land use practices in the surrounding area. Land use in the immediate vicinity is characterized by single-family dwellings and a park. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS,INC. Bennett Corporation • JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 3. 3.2.1 Site Improvements The entire 10.36-acre lot is undeveloped. Potable water is provided by the City of Renton. Storm and sanitary sewer services are provided by the King County Department of Metropolitan Services (METRO). 3.2.2 Building Materials No structures are currently on the property. 3.2.3 Current Uses of Property The subject property is the proposed location for a high-density residential development. At present, the site is undeveloped. The southern portion of the property is covered by trees, brush, and other native vegetation. An unpaved road, now heavily overgrown, leads onto the property from the southeastern border. The northern portion of the property appears to have been excavated (see Section 4.4), then filled. This area contains some trees and is heavily overgrown by brambles. We observed construction debris (wood, plastic piping, pieces of concrete and asphalt, etc.) along with tires, bottles, furniture, yard waste, and other household items. The majority of the casual dumping appears to have taken place on the northern portion of the property. None of the material appears to be hazardous. At the time of our site visit, no major stains, odors, or unusual vegetative conditions that might indicate the potential presence of hazardous contamination were noted on the subject property. 3.2.4 Current Uses of Adjoining Properties • Land use in the site vicinity is characterized by residential development. More specifically, the property is bordered as follows: North: To the north of the subject site is the River Ridge subdivision of single- family houses constructed in 1994. East: To the east of the subject site is the Falcon Ridge subdivision of single- family houses constructed in 1989 and a parcel of undeveloped land that slopes steeply down to the northeast. South-: A gated, asphalt-paved maintenance road (Southeast Beacon Way) over- West lying the City of Seattle's Cedar River water supply pipeline runs along the . southwestern border of the property. Across this road is Philip Arnold Park, then single-family residences. During our reconnaissance, we did not observe any obvious signs of improper storage or disposal practices of hazardous waste on any of the neighboring sites that would negatively impact the subject property. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 4 3.3 Hazardous Materials 3.3.1 Storage Tanks and Containers At the time of our site visit, we looked for evidence of underground or above-ground storage tanks on the subject parcel. No signs of underground or above-ground storage tanks were observed during our site reconnaissance. 3.3.2 Asbestos-Containing Materials Asbestos gained widespread use in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s for fireproofing, for thermal insulation, and to enhance strength, and has been used in over 3,000 commercial products. In buildings, it is most commonly found in boiler and pipe insulation, in "popcorn" ceiling texture, in vinyl flooring, in plaster and drywall compounds, in mastics and adhesives, in cement board siding, and in roofing. The knowledge that exposure to asbestos fibers can cause harm to humans became widespread between about 1955 and 1975. Diseases linked to asbestos exposure include asbestosis, a scarring of the lung tissue; lung cancer; and mesothelioma, a cancer of the lining of the chest and abdominal cavity. The EPA banned the use of asbestos in some applications in 1973, and by 1989 had announced a gradual ban on most remaining uses. Building materials imported from Canada or other areas outside the United States may still contain asbestos. No structures are on the site. We did not observe signs of asbestos-containing materials on the property. 3.3.3 Lead-Based Paint Until the 1960's, paint containing 30 to 40 percent lead was commonly used on the interior and exterior surfaces of buildings. Exposure to particles of lead-based paint (LBP), either through inhalation or ingestion, has been found to cause a variety of adverse human health effects. Children are particularly sensitive to these effects, and chronic exposure to lead can cause learning difficulties, mental retardation, and delayed neurological and physical development. In 1977, the Consumer Products Safety Commission banned consumer use of paint products that contain lead in excess of 0.06 percent. The current LBP standard, as defined by the Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act and the Department of Housing and Community Development Act, Title 10, is any paint or other surface coating that contains lead in excess of 1.0 milligrams per centimeter squared or 0.5 percent by weight (5,000 parts per million). No structures are on the subject property. We did not observe any signs of lead-based paint on the site. 3.3.4 PCBs Prior to 1979, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were widely used in electrical equipment, such as transformers, capacitors, switches, fluorescent light ballasts, and voltage regulators, owing to their excellent cooling properties. In 1976, the EPA initiated GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 5 the regulation of PCBs through the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These regulations generally control the use, manufacture, storage, documentation, and disposal of PCBs. The EPA eventually banned PCB use in 1978, and the adoption of amendments to TSCA under Public Law 94-469 in 1979 prohibited any further manufacturing of PCBs in the United States. No buildings are on the property. We did not observe any transformers on the subject property. 3.3.5 Waste Generation and Disposal No solid or hazardous waste is generated at the subject property. 3.4 Other Conditions of Concern 3.4.1 Radon Radon is a naturally occurring, highly mobile, chemically inert, radioactive gas created through the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium. The potential for the occurrence of radon varies widely and depends on: (1) the concentration of radioactive materials in the underlying bedrock, (2) the relative permeability of soils with respect to gases, and (3) the amount of fracturing or faulting in the surficial materials (EPA, 1987). The EPA has established a concentration for radon of 4 pico-Curies per liter (pC/I) of air as a maximum permissible concentration "action level." According to some studies, the average concentration in homes across the United States is on the order of 1.4 pC/I. Typically, the Puget Sound area of Washington is underlain by a consolidated thickness of glacial drift and rocks that do not contain radon-forming minerals. The Washington Department of Health, Division of Radiation Protection, published a study listing the King County average as 0.7 pC/I. Based on this information, it is our opinion that the potential for elevated levels of radon at this site is low. 3.4.2 Coal Mine Hazards Coal has been mined in several areas of King County since the late nineteenth century. Although current production is entirely from surface mines, nearly all the coal produced prior to about 1970 was from underground workings. Abandoned subsurface mine workings leave large underground voids which are hazardous in several ways. Gradual failure of the roof and sides of these voids may result in subsidence of the ground surface over a large area overlying the mines. Noxious gases and "dead air" (lacking oxygen) may also collect in these voids. In addition, animals or people may fall into surface openings, shafts, or tunnels. Unstable mine spoil piles, frequently covered with vegetation and resembling natural hills, pose hazards as well. We reviewed a mine hazard assessment of the property prepared by HartCrowser, Inc. The report stated that the Heritage Arnold property is underlain by three coal seams, two of which have historic mine workings. The shallowest of the workings lies approximately GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 6 250 to 300 feet beneath the surface, while the deeper workings lie 475 to 765 feet beneath the surface. There was no indication of mining on, or adjacent to, the property after the early 1920s. The HartCrowser report identified three potential mine-related hazards: trough-type settlements, sinkholes, and mine gas emissions. They concluded that sinkholes and mine gas emissions were unlikely to be problems at the property and that, although trough-type subsidence could occur, the magnitude of settlement would be unlikely to cause damage to conventionally-constructed structures. 4.0 HISTORICAL USE INFORMATION Sources reviewed for information on site and area development and land use included historic aerial photography and the resources of the King County Assessor's Office and the Puget Sound branch of the Washington State Archives. 4.1 Previous Environmental and Geotechnical Investigations Geotech Consultants, Inc. has not completed geotechnical or environmental engineering studies for the site. We were provided with a copy of an abandoned mine assessment for the site prepared by HartCrowser, Inc. that is summarized in section 3.4.2. 4.2 Historical Maps Sanborn Fire Insurance maps do not cover the vicinity of the subject property. A U.S. Geological Survey map of the Renton Quadrangle, dated 1949, shows the subject site as a mine in an area that is otherwise undeveloped. Revisions made to the map in 1968 and 1973 show areas of residential development to the west and to the southeast. 4.3 Tax Assessor Records The King County Assessor's Office lists the current taxpayer as the Renton School District 403. According to information from the Assessor's Office, the residential subdivision to the north, River Ridge, was developed in 1994 while the subdivision to the south, Falcon Ridge (or Cedar Ridge) was developed in 1989. 4.4 State Archive Records Information on file at the archives indicates that the subject property was once part of a 32.03-acre site owned by the Puget Sound Power and Light Company. A wooden water tank, located on the present site of Philip Arnold Park, was the structure shown on the property. This large parcel was divided in 1964, and the subject site in its present size and shape was created through a second division in 1966. It was acquired at that time by the Renton School District from Puget Properties. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 7 4.5 Renton Directories Renton city directories did not cover the area of the subject property. 4.6 Aerial Photographs We reviewed aerial photographs dated 1936, 1946, 1960, 1968, 1974, 1980, 1985, 1990, and 1995. Development on the subject property and in the surrounding area for each of these years is discussed in the paragraphs that follow. 1936: In this photograph, the subject property is covered by low vegetation. An unpaved road, the City of Seattle's Cedar River Pipeline Road, runs northwest-to southeast along the southwestern border of the property. To the north is a smaller, unnamed road that winds to the southeast before splitting into small trails. Farther north is Maple.Valley. A residential area covering a few blocks lies to the west. The land to the south and the east is undeveloped and covered by low vegetation. 1946: The subject site remains undeveloped and covered by low vegetation. Residential development to the west is denser. A power line right-of-way running east to west has been cleared approximately one-quarter mile to the south. 1960: A small cleared area can be seen at the southeastern corner of the property. A baseball field appears to the west. Several housing developments can be seen to the south. 1968: The northern portion of the property has been cleared of vegetation, and appears to have been excavated. An electrical substation has been constructed approximately one-quarter mile to the south. 1974: The subject site appears unchanged from the 1968 photograph. At Philip Arnold Park to the west, a building and a parking lot have been constructed. 1980: The northern portion of the property is now covered by low vegetation. The vegetation on the remaining portion is much denser. 1985: Residential development in the area has increased greatly. 1990: The Falcon Ridge housing development now appears to the southeast of the subject site. 1995: The River Ridge housing development now appears to the north of the subject site. The site and the surrounding area appear as described in our 1999 site visit. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 8 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 5.1 Regional Physiographic Conditions The site is located on the Covington Drift Upland, a gently rolling, elevated drift plain in the Puget Sound Lowland geomorphic province. The Puget Sound Lowland is a basin lying between the Cascade Mountains to the east and the Olympic Mountains to the west and is covered mainly by glacially-deposited sediments. The plain was formed during the last period of continental glaciation that ended approximately 13,500 years ago. The site lies near the northwestern corner of the upland plain at an approximate elevation of 400 feet above sea level. 5.2 Soil and Geologic Conditions A published geologic map for the site vicinity suggests that much of the material underlying the subject site is glacial till, a dense, heterogeneous mixture of silt, sand, and gravel. Typically, the till exhibits relatively low vertical hydraulic conductivity, which frequently results in formation of a perched water table along its upper contact. The perched water table (if present) is frequently seasonal and derives recharge primarily from infiltration of precipitation through more permeable overlying soils. Geotech Consultants, Inc. is preparing a geotechnical engineering study of the site that will discuss subsurface conditions in greater detail. 5.3 Hydrogeologic Conditions The geologic unit that we assume characterizes the site is of relatively low permeability, although unmapped deposits of higher permeability sand and gravel may occur within this unit. Based upon local drainage patterns and upon our review of a U.S. Geological Survey map of the area, it is likely that the flow of surface, or shallow-seated subsurface, water across the property would be toward the northwest to the Cedar River. According to a U.S. EPA Ground Water Handbook, shallow water tables typically conform to surface topography. 6.0 RECORDS REVIEW Geotech Consultants, Inc. utilized the services of Vista Information Services, Inc. (VIS) to complete a search of available state and federal government records. VIS reported those sites and businesses that are located within the minimum search distances specified by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Designation E 1527. Additionally, through observations made during our site reconnaissance, we attempted to identify local topographic conditions that may influence the potential for regulated facilities to adversely impact the subject property. The databases searched by VIS, as well as the search areas applied to each, are summarized in the following sections. A copy of the VIS Site Assessment is included with this report as an appendix. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS INC Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 9 6.1 Federal Records Sources 6.1.1 NPL One site within a one-mile radius of the subject property is found on the National Priority List. That site, Pacific Car and Foundry at 1400 North 4th Street, is located approximately one mile to the north. Based upon its distance from the Heritage Arnold property and its crossgradient hydrologic position, any risk it may pose appears to be very low. 6.1.2 CERCLIS A review of the EPA's CERCLIS listing reveals no active sites within approximately one- half mile of the subject property that have been designated as potentially hazardous or eligible for participation in the Superfund cleanup program. 6.1.3 ERNS The subject property does not appear on the Emergency Response Notification System (ERNS) database of spill response activities. 6.1.4 FINDS A review of the Facility Index System (FINDS) listing and the EPA's RCRA Notifiers list, along with our site and area reconnaissance, reveals no RCRA-regulated businesses on the subject property, on adjacent sites, or within a one-eighth mile radius. 6.1.5 TSD A review of the RCRIS-TSD list shows no sites within a one-mile radius of the subject property. 6.2 State Records Sources 6.2.1 WDOE Underground Storage Tanks A review of the WDOE listing of underground storage tanks (USTs) reveals no registered USTs on, or adjacent to, the subject property. 6.2.2 WDOE Leaking Underground Storage Tanks A review of the current Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) list reveals no sites within a half-mile radius of the subject property that have reported releases of petroleum into the environment. 6.2.3 WDOE Hazardous Site Listings A review of the WDOE Confirmed & Suspected Contaminated Sites (C&SCS) report GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 10 shows one site within an approximate one-mile radius of the subject property that has been designated as a confirmed hazardous substance site. This site, Northwest Pipeline at 800 South 21st Street, is situated approximately seven-eighths of a mile to the southwest, in a crossgradient hydrologic position. Based upon the distance separating it from the Heritage Arnold property and upon its relative hydrologic position, it is not considered a source of potential contamination to the subject property. 6.2.4 WDOE Toxics Site Listings A review of the WDOE Toxics site listing shows two sites within a one-half-mile radius of the subject property that have submitted reports to WDOE describing independent cleanup activities. Both sites are approximately one-half mile from the subject site, and are in cross- to downgradient hydrologic positions. Based upon the distances separating them from the Heritage Arnold property and upon their relative hydrologic positions, they are not considered sources of potential contamination to the subject property. 6.3 Local Agency Sources A statewide listing of municipal solid waste facilities does not record any active landfills in this area. A review of the Seattle-King County Health Department records pertaining to current and abandoned landfills within the county suggests that two closed landfills are located within one mile of the subject property. The Mount Olivet Landfill is located three-quarters of a mile to the north- northeast, and the Renton Highlands Landfill is located approximately one mile to the northeast. Both landfills are located across Maple Valley from the subject site. Based upon the distances separating them from the Heritage Arnold property and the intervening valley, they are not considered sources of potential contamination to the subject property. 6.4 Assumptions and Opinion of Contaminant Mobility and Site Vulnerability No sites confirmed to be contaminated by hazardous waste lie within 1,000 feet of the subject property in an upgradient hydraulic position. As such, it is our professional opinion that the potential for the migration of theoretical water-borne contamination onto the subject property is very low. 7.0 RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION We performed a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment, consistent with the scope and limitations of ASTM Designation E 1527, for the property at Beacon Way Southeast in Renton, Washington. 7.1 Findings This assessment revealed no evidence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. Bennett Corporation JN 9930A September 9, 1999 Page 11 7.2 Conclusions and Recommendations As stated earlier, the northern portion of the property was excavated, then filled with as much as 12 feet of imported material that included construction debris. It may be prudent to include a contingency in development plans, should contaminated material be discovered during future excavation. 7.3 Limitations This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the Bennett Corporation, and its representatives, for specific application to this site. This work was performed in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill normally exercised by members of the environmental science profession currently practicing under similar conditions in the area. Our work is in accordance with our Fee Schedule and General Conditions and our signed proposal, which is dated August 18, 1999. 8.0 REFERENCES Bishop, Greg, Turnberg, Wayne L., and VanDusen, Karen.

SRC#:5900 The agency release date for NPL was May, 1999. The National Priorities List(NPL) is the EPA's database of uncontrolled or abandoned hazardous waste sites identified for priority remedial actions under the Superfund program.A site must meet or surpass a predetermined hazard ranking system score, be chosen as a state's top priority site,or meet three specific criteria set jointly by the US Dept of Health and Human Services and the US EPA in order to become an NPL site. SpL VISTA conducts a database search to identify all sites within 1 mile of your property. SRC#:5429 The agency release date for Confirmed Contaminated Sites Report was November, 1998. The Washington Confirmed Contaminated Sites Report contains a WARM (Washington Ranking Model) BIN Number of 0-5 which is assigned to'anNPL site designating it as a State Priority Site. CORRACTS VISTA conducts a database search to identify all sites within 1 mile of your property. SRC#:5896 The agency release date for HWDMS/RCRIS was May, 1999. The EPA maintains this database of RCRA facilities which are undergoing "corrective action".A"corrective action order" is issued pursuant to RCRA Section 3008 (h) when there has been a release of hazardous waste or constituents into the environment from a RCRA facility. Corrective actions may be required beyond the facility's boundary and can be required regardless of when the release occurred, even if it predates RCRA. T .BA B DA A SES: EAR HED`T 1% CERCLIS VISTA conducts a database search to identify all sites within 1/2 mile of your property. SRC#:5790 The agency release date for CERCLIS was March,1999. The CERCLIS List contains sites which are either proposed to or on the National Priorities List(NPL) and sites which are in the screening and assessment phase for possible inclusion on the NPL.The information on each site includes a history of all pre-remedial, remedial, removal and community relations activiies or events at the site,financial funding information for the events, and unrestricted enforcement activities.

Grady Way Renton WA 98055 Dear Ms. Higgins, It seems fairly clear that the City of Renton has determined that the development project, "Heritage Philip Arnold,will go through. I would hope that the city of Renton also intends to deal with the impact on the environment,which to many people is not non- significant. For starters,traffic-wise,most people in the area use, or would like to use,the Park and Ride in Renton. At the present, anyone who arrives there after 7 a.m. on a weekday is unlikely to find a parking place. This means parking illegally in one of the area malls, and hoping not to get towed, or cruising the streets in front of private residences within walking distance. Does the City plan to expand the park and Ride to handle the every increasing population in the area? Secondly, although I haven't figured out exactly how access to the new development is planned, all the roads leading up to the area are crowded at peak times. Talbot, Puget and Benson are all two-lane roads. The increased traffic in the past two years is making them dangerous. Some cars have trouble on the hill and go very slowly; other drivers get quite aggressive and pass unsafely. At night,just getting into Renton across Rainier can be a challenge. Are you bypassing these,roads completely or planning to widen the road? This is not even to speak of the wild life living in the wooded areas. The deer population, possum and rabbits are already threatened and found on the road dead or alive. What is being done about this? If Renton continues to fill up every space available with developments,it has the obligation to meet the needs arising from increased density. • Sincerely, . . , , Roseanne Nolan 2048 SE 8th Pl.

From: User Name <username@corp.atl.com> To: <ehiggins@ci.renton.wa.us> Date: 5/15/00 7:02PM Subject: Comments on the Heritage Development Proposal Dear Ms. Higgins, Let me introduce myself first. My name is Bentley Oaks. My wife Lynn and myself have lived at 1321 S 7th since December 1993. I am writing this letter to document my concerns over the proposed Heritage Development across from Phillip Arnold Park. Of all of the reasons that might be explored as to why this development should not be approved, traffic flow and law enforcement of traffic, in my view would be the the most important. The traffic up and down 7th avenue reaches rates far in excess of the allowed 25 mph limit. Coupled with this, even with numerous requests for a police emphasis on top of the hill, I have never heard on one occurring during our tenure on the hill. As far as the traffic is concerned, Renton Avenue does not provide enough access if cars are parked on the east side of the hill. I speak from experience as I have been "swiped" myself by someone coming up the hill too fast. Lastly, according to the plot layout, Heritage is suggesting park traffic could access their development from the other side of the gate at the part, by the baseball diamond. This would inherently allow traffic from Puget Drive to access Renton Hill through this development. As history tells us, allowing traffic over the top of the hill develops into total grid lock at the bottom of Renton Hill. I am certain that there are many reasons, like trash in our yards after baseball games, more people, more crime, less police per capita by definition, but I think that the over all safety of the existing population of Renton Hill is the most important. Allowing this development to proceed will most undoubtedly sacrifice our safety. Best Regards, F.

THIS FACILITY WAS CLOSED IN 1973 AT THE REQUEST OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE HILL TO ELIMINATE THE THROUGH TRAFFIC THAT CAME TO AND FROM THE CASCADE AREA TO THE SOUTH. THE RESIDENTS OF RENTON HILL CONSIDERED THE THROUGH TRAFFIC INAPPROPRIATE AND DANGEROUS TO THE COMMUNITY.

(In 1972 the pipeline road was open during the Boeing slump. Traffic count taken on S. 3rd east of mill for 24 hours showed 2745 vehicles entering or leaving the hill. In 1973 the pipeline road was closed. At the same location for 24 hours 1547 vehicles entered or left the hill. In 2000 The Bennett traffic study shows 2361 vehicles entering or leaving the hill with a projected figure of 2935 in 2001. Since 1978 a total of 50 new homes have been added to Renton Hill. How can the traffic decrease from 1978 to 1999? It should also be noted that the traffic for Philip Arnold Park was not considered in the Bennett traffic study. See Attachment.)

My wife and I live on 7th and Grant on Renton Hill. I have a couple of questions about the Heritage Development. First, does the city have the rite of refusal on the exit from this area. It looks like there is three entrances. One on the east side of the gate, and two on the west side of the gate. If two of the three really dont exist,just the main entrance, is it in the power of Renton to allow a variance to open up the exit? Secondly, are there safe widths of roads for traffic? Does Renton plan on increasing the police force if this housing goes through? What would be the one factor that could disallow this development in your mind, Traffic, Renton Ave width, what? Answers would be appreciated either my email or phone. My phone is 425-487-7116.

My major concern reflects the increased traffic that will result from this development. I am especially concerned about Renton and Cedar Avenue traffic. My family and I have lived on Renton Hill for the past ten years. When we first moved up here,many of the homeowners were elderly,with only one car per household. In the past few years,more elderly have sold their homes or passed on and younger families are purchasing those homes. As you well know,most families today have at least two vehicles per home and sometimes more. This has caused a great deal more traffic going up and down the hill. Additionally,in the last few years,we have noticed increased traffic with mountain bikers coming up the hill to take advantage of the much-publicized trails (http://w'ww.seattleinsider.com/recreation/cycling/phillip.html& http://www.dirtworld.com/trails/Washington trail242.htm). Renton Avenue is the focus of my concern because it is one of the two main arterioles up the hill. The other arterial is Cedar Avenue. Anything I say that is worrisome for Renton Avenue would be worse on Cedar because it is even narrower with cars parked on both sides of the street. On Renton Avenue cars are allowed to park on the East Side of the street. Even though drivers are supposed to yield to uphill traffic,downhill traffic has to slow as well because there just isn't room for parked cars and two-way traffic. Frequently,due to natural bends and curves in the road,simply slowing down isn't sufficient. In those instances all traffic winds up braking abruptly so as to prevent an accident. The Heritage Renton Hill development is proposing 55 new homes. That will add a minimum of 100 additional vehicles to the already crowded street with a minimum of 200 trips up and down the hill each day (one per car). This does not factor in 3rd family vehicles or visitors or more than one trip up and down the hill per day. I am fearful of a tragedy waiting to happen. A few short years ago,there was a serious accident on this road. With additional cars and traffic worse than ever,I feel certain another one is not far off. When this occurs,it will be too late to fix the problem and people will be looking for someone to blame. I know studies were done monitoring the volume of traffic going up and down the hill. I have not seen the results,but am assuming they were thought to be satisfactory since this project is going forward I urge you in this instance to not look at the numbers in the data. One needs to drive that road on a regular basis, especially in the early morning and late afternoon,when there are a lot of cars parked on the side of the road to really see and understand the impact and concern I am speaking of. I understand new homes and growing neighborhoods are the way of today and an asset to the Renton economy. However,this is an old neighborhood,not equipped with multi-car garages,wide streets,or alleys. If absolutely necessary to build a housing development on the proposed site,I feel it is the city's responsibility to act responsibly and figure out a solution to the already crowded road and not just add to the problem. Some mentioned solutions have been to widen Renton(or Cedar)Avenue or make the entrance to the Heritage Renton Hill development on the other side of the pipeline gate. If neither of these is feasible,it is still a responsibility to come up with a solution so as not to create more of a problem for the already concerned citizens of Renton Hill. K September 24,2000 At the neighborhood/Bennett Homes meetings this past year,it was stated how there was such a huge turn out of concerned citizens that isn't commonly seen at such gatherings. I also have heard that for every voice spoken or letter written there are ten silent who feel the same way. This is a cohesive neighborhood with a strong concern,please don't ignore it for the sake of progress. Sincerely, Kimberly K.Mehlhaff&Family " oo -o�� The Renton Hill Community Association submits the following findings to you regarding the rezone and permit application to the City of Renton by Bennett Homes to develop a property located on Renton Hill. In 1993 when the property in question was rezoned, the Renton Hill Community Association was not informed. The public information meeting regarding rezoning in our area was listed as "SOUTHEAST" and was held at Nelsen Middle School on Oct. 22 1992. (See attachment#1). If the announcement of this meeting had indicated that Renton Hill was involved the zoning question would have been addressed in a timely fashion. The Renton Hill Community Association was formed in 1978 and has been on record with the City of Renton and the Renton Chamber of.Commerce, yet we were not informed of this meeting or that it would include any part of Renton Hill and that this property specifically was involved in a critical rezone. By rezoning this property without notification the City of Renton has place into jeopardy the safety and welfare of all Renton Hill residents. "The legislature fmds that uncoordinated and unplanned growth, together with a lack of common goals expressing the public's interest in the conservation and the wise use of our lands, pose a threat to the environment, sustainable economic development, and the health, safety, and high quality of life enjoyed by residents of this state. It is in the public interest that citizens, communities, local governments, and the private sector cooperate and coordinate with one another in comprehensive land use planning." (RCW 36.70A.010). See attachment # 2. "Each county and city that is required or chooses to plan under RCW 36.70A.140 shall establish and broadly disseminate to the public participation program identifying procedures providing for early and continuous public participation in the development and amendment of comprehensive land use plans and development regulations implementing such plans." (RCW 36.70.140). See attachment# 3. Ct ;In checking the rezone information in a document titled"City of Renton V> N c Interim Land Use Element and Areawide Zoning, Translation of Proposed .W o Land Use Classifications to Zones" the zoning to replace G-1 (as this tt' property was zoned prior to 1993) is listed as LDSF (low density single m- CE family). The "City of Renton Comprehensive Land Use Plan" map dated June 17, 1993 shows this property as LDSF. This zoning was changed and no documents could be found that changed this density to the zoning SF 1 .1 (Single Family) which is the present zoning on this property. See attachment #4a and 4b. Around the rezone issue, we are concerned with the data the city has been utilizing. The lack of any updated information, gives standing to the 1978 to the hearing examiners comments included in a previous zoning hearing. "In effect the end result is a long and densely populated cul-de-sac which exceeds the limit of Section 9-2208.k (Subdivision Ordinance). * (Ref. R- 178-78, page 21, see attachment# 5. *This Ordinance is no longer in effect. It has been replaced by City of Renton code 4-6-060F, see attachment# 6. This new version states the Minimum Design Standards for Residential Access Streets: Right-of-way 50 foot, 32 feet paved, yet the proposed development is requesting a variance for access right of way 40 foot streets. Why do we have "Minimum Standards" if we continue to allow less than minimum? The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element— Transportation, Policy T-2.1: Each street in the City should be assigned a functional classification based on factors including: a. traffic volumes; b. type of service provided; c. land use; and d. preservation of existing neighborhoods. (see attachment #9). Renton Ave. So. is the main access to the proposed building site and functions as a collector street. The Minimum Design Standards for Collector Streets require 60" width with 36' paved, parking on both sides. (Renton Ave. So. has a 23-foot driving surface with parking allowed on one side and by defmition should fall under the collector street category, which requires 36 feet paved.) Renton Ave. South is basically a one-way street. The fact that the original Ordinance is no longer in effect does not change the reality that Renton is a densely populated cul-de-sac with excessive traffic with well below minimum access street standards. (It should be noted here that the only transportation available on Renton Hill is by foot or private automobile.) The Bus system will not travel on Renton Hill because of its excessive street grades. Between 1990 and 1993, the City of Renton created a report called a Transportation Area Zone (TAZ) to be used as a tool in the restructure of the comprehensive plan. In this document Renton Hill was divided into three areas. These areas are numbered 46, 47, and 48. Area 46 included all of Renton Hill North of So. 7th Street. Area 47 went South of So. 7th Street, across the Puget Power right of way and included a portion of apartment buildings on the South End of the hill. Area 48 (where the proposed 2 development is located) went East of the Seattle pipeline road, north from the intersection of the pipeline road and Jones Ave. So. and South to Royal Hills Drive. The purpose of this report was to support how many homes could be built within each zone. See attachment#7a and 7b. The question this brings forward is: How can the TAZ for r Renton Hill have any foundation for rezone when you cannot access the proposed building site (section 48) from any portion of the section 48 streets and half of section 47 cannot be accessed from Renton Hill? Without any accurate information or notification the rezone did not follow due process. Renton Hill is not included in the City of Renton 1996 Traffic flow map because our traffic flow is either to or from our homes and while we now have a choice when we reach South 3rd the remainder of our residential streets have not changed. When the Washington State DOT remodeled the "S" curves we lost several neighbors, their homes and property. The bottom of Renton Hill was literally sliced off. Since 1978 we have added 46 single- family residents and 5 Multi-unit apartments and had Major remodels on 18 single-family residents and 3 Multi-unit or duplex residence in a smaller land area. With all of these additions we have also added the burden of traffic generated by adding these new homes. (See attachment#8). Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element III Traffic Flow. Objective T-3.0: Eliminate disruptions which reduce the safety and reasonable functioning of the local transportation system. And policy T-3.1: Maximize traffic flow and accessibility on arterial roads while protecting local/neighborhood roads from increased traffic volumes. (See attachment#9). If the Washington State Department of Transportation has its way and can work around the new requirements for Saving our Salmon it will be back to widen I405 and Renton Hill will once again "be sacrificed for the greater good". Safety for pedestrians is also a big concern in our neighborhood. There are no marked crosswalks on Renton Hill even though our children walk to Phillip Arnold Park to catch the school bus. Please note here the Renton School District will not allow school busses to use Renton Hill streets due to the excessive street grades. There are no traffic controls at any intersection on Grant Ave. S. or High Ave. S. There is one stop sign on Mill Ave. S., one on Cedar Ave. S., four on Renton Ave. So. (three at the corner of So. 7th and 3 Renton Ave. S. due to a 26% grade on So. 7th) and five at the corner of So.7th, Jones Ave. So., 7th Court, Beacon Ave. So. and the "Pipe Line Road" access to Phillip Arnold Park. This is the intersection that the proposed development will funnel all traffic thru. It is important to note that none of the streets or avenues on Renton Hill meets the minimum standards as required in Renton City Code 4-6-060F section b., page 6-17, (see attachment#6). In a prior hearing it was stated regarding Renton Hill ..."G. Traffic: The streets are rather steep and serious questions can be raised concerning traffic safety if too many cars use the streets. Between South 3"I and 7th streets, Renton Avenue and Cedar Avenue average 9.2% and 7.7 % slope respectively. Renton Avenue has a short stretch that has a grade in excess of 15 % between the same streets: With the gridiron street pattern, a vehicle (and anything which the vehicle might hit) can be in serious trouble should a serious mechanical problem occur such as brake failure. (See attachment R-178-78 page 4 (see attachment#10) and Renton City Code 4- 6-060F section 5 page 6-17. #6). In addition to this accurate statement it should be added that South 7th Street between Cedar Ave. So. and Renton Ave. So. has a grade of 26% and does not function during snow and/or ice. A section of Renton Ave. So. of great concern is at the crest of the hill in front of 536 Renton Ave. So. This is a limited site distance area. A down hill vehicle (North bound) must move to the center of the street due to parked cars to the right, placing the moving vehicle into the oncoming (up hill portion of the street). The down hill vehicle cannot see oncoming traffic (up hill) until they reach the crest and has limited space in which to move towards parked cars and/or stop. Vehicles coming up the hill (South bound) must often stop to avoid oncoming traffic. If either or both vehicles are exceeding the speed limit there is very little space and very little time to avoid contact. Vehicles coming up the hill have the same visual problem. If either of these vehicles is a truck the sight is quicker but the ability to adjust is lessened. It is an unsafe area and along with two other site distant areas on the Hill causes a great deal of concern. The proposed site for the development is not compatible with many City requirements. This property will be clear cut, bulldozed and leveled. The department of Public Works states in its LAND USE APPLICATION TERMS: Site Plan approval: The purpose of Site Plan Approval is to assure that the site plan of proposed uses is compatible with both the physical characteristics of the site and with the existing and potential uses of the surrounding area. The Site Plan review assures that a development is consistent with City of Renton Plans, Policies and Regulations (Renton 4 # 4. i CITY OF RENTON INTERIM LAND USE ELEMENT AND AREAWIDE ZONING I Translation of Proposed Land Use Classifications to Zones LAND USE ZONING Old Section New Section Number LDSF (Low Density Resource Conservation Replace G-1 4-31-4A I Single Family) (RC) Single-Family Residential I - Low Density (SFL) 4-31-4B SF (Single Family) Single Family (SF) Replace R-1 4-31-5 i .

This document also states: Preliminary Plat: The purpose of the Preliminary Plat application review is to establish • the layout of the land division and ensure that the proposed division is designed and developed in accordance with the City of Renton's adopted ordinances and standards. The proposal must be consistent with the protection of the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics and, provide for public services/infrastructure (Renton Municipal Code, Section 9-12-6). See attached#11. The public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics portion of this code is neither addressed nor acknowledged in this project. The quantity of construction traffic alone, to and from this site, with large trucks, heavy machinery, suppliers, construction workers, etc. all coming up and going down Renton Ave. So. is not in the interest public health, safety or welfare. (RCW 47.48.010) States: Whenever the condition of any state highway, county road, or city street, whether newly or previously constructed, altered, repaired or improved, or any part thereof is such for any reason its unrestricted use or continued use by vehicles or by any class of vehicles will greatly damage that state highway, county road, or city street, or will be dangerous to traffic... (See Attachment# 12 for complete text). The city has the right under this code to limit usage of any street. Renton Ave. So. is already posted with a 'Load Limit". Additional comments in the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element Community Design and Residential are as following: Build neighborhoods: In order to develop the sense of community and neighborhood identity residents would like to see, a concerted effort to "build neighborhoods" rather than a collection of housing developments is • needed. #13. Policy CD-6.5: Existing mature vegetation and distinctive trees should be protected and retained in development. #14 Policy CD-6.6: Heritage trees or other unique individual trees should be retained. #14 (also with this policy please refer to the Discussion at the end of this attached page.). B. Subdivision of Land Objective R-16-3: Residential site plans should preserve sensitive areas, take advantage of significant views, and incorporate natural features. #15 Objective R-17.0: Ensure structures built in residential areas are compatible with the existing or desired character of established neighborhoods and the desired character of new neighborhoods. #15 (1)Preserve and improve existing neighborhoods: 5 • c. Use design controls to ensure that new development fits in existing neighborhoods; #16 d. Develop new programs to upgrade existing neighborhoods by adding street trees, sidewalks, or neighborhood parks where needed. #16 This proposed development does none of the above. On the East side of the property(this development is requesting permits for) there is a raised, old county roadbed. To the West of this roadbed the drop off is between 15 and 25 feet. To the East of the roadbed is a drop off that goes all the way down to Cedar River Level. hi order to develop the property, this roadbed must be leveled. This will remove all trees and plants on the East side (and the rest of the property). The results of this leveling, coupled with the clear cut, will mean a slope that includes 24 to 40 percent grades will be at great risk for erosion. Quite probably some construction encroachment will occur on the East side so the level of erosion will exceed the property line. All of the runoff on the East side will cany down the slope and to the Cedar River. Does this plan comply with the new steep slope requirements? Every Friday the recycle, garbage and yard waste trucks are in our neighborhood for pickup. They are a great group of people who work very hard at doing their job and doing it well. While doing their job, it is inevitable that Cedar Ave. So. and Renton Ave. So. will be blocked for a period of time (by each of three trucks). This is not the workers fault, it is what these two streets allow. They work as quickly as possible but cannot avoid blocking with a truck that size and a street that narrow. This is just one of many things residents of Renton Hill know and adjust to accordingly. We also know that driving up Renton Hill, if you must stay to the right because of traffic, you will drive into three dips in the street where patches do not come to the level of the street. Most of us simply move to the left and end up driving in the center of the street. This is only good if there is no traffic, if you aren't in the limited site distance area and if no one pulls out of their drive way. I mention these small things because they will not be addressed in this process nor will the other quirks of our neighborhood or any other neighborhood. The attention paid to these quirks is how we stay safe in our neighborhood environment. • The City of Renton has failed to meet its own, and the State of Washington rules and standards on the zoning of this property. The failure to inform invalidates every aspect of this proposal. A reality check is well past due on the impacts of this type project in any neighborhood in Renton. What is the impact on the adjoining property, property across the street, property one block away, two blocks away, 4 blocks away, one quarter of a mile away, one half mile away, even one mile away? Will the citizens living within this area be able to access their homes safely? Will responding emergency vehicles be slowed by this project? What will more than one hundred loaded cement trucks do to the only road leading to this project and what will one hundred empty cement trucks do to the same road leading away from this project? Will all of the trucks be in good mechanical working order? Will residents of this neighborhood be able to pull out of their driveways every morning safely with the increase in traffic due to the numbers of people working on this project, each day for several months? Is there a realistic option for residents if even one construction vehicle breaks down going to or from this property? If there is one, what is that option? Who will be responsible if the answer to any of the above questions is no? The ripple effect of this project, on our neighborhood, must be addressed. 4 Oa- 7 Citizens are Encouraged to Participate . a . KENNYDALE .

State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA): A set of policies established by the state as a standard process for agencies to use in evaluating the possible adverse environmental impacts of a proposal. This process also allows review of possible project alternatives or mitigation measures which will reduce the environmental impact of a project. . Environmental Review(ECF):The purpose of Environmental Review is to evaluate the environmental impacts of a proposal and to identify methods to reduce the impacts. During this review process, environmental values are considered as well as technical and economic considerations. Declaration of Non-Significance(DNS):The written determination issued by the Environmental Review Committee(ERC) meaning that a proposal is not likely to have a significant adverse environmental impact and will not require an EIS. Declaration of Significance(DS): The written determination issued by the ERC meaning that a proposal is likely to have a significant adverse environmental impact and will require an EIS. Variance:An exemption to the City's Land Use Code, issued to equalize rights and privileges of similar-sized lots in similar zones.Variances often are used in cases of unusual lot shapes, or the configurations of nearby buildings, allowing the same type of usage on same-sized lots. Conditional Use (CU)Permits: The purpose of a conditional use permit is to allow certain prescribed uses in districts from which they are normally prohibited when the proposed uses are deemed consistent with other existing and potential uses in the surrounding area. (Renton Municipal Code, Section 4-31-36). Site Plan Approval (SA): The purpose of Site Plan Approval is to assure that the site plan of proposed uses is compatible with both the physical characteristics of the site and with the existing and potential uses of the 'l� surrounding area. The Site Plan review assures that a development is consistent with City of Renton Plans, Policies and Regulations(Renton Municipal Code, Section 4-3i-33). Preliminary Plat(PP):The purpose of the Preliminary Plat application review is to establish the layout of the land division and to ensure that the proposed division is designed and developed in accordance with the City of Renton's adopted ordinances and standards. The proposal must be consistent with the protection of the public healthy, safety,welfare and aesthetics and, provide for adequate public services/infrastructure (Renton Municipal Code, Section 9-12-6). Lot Line Adjustment(LLA):The lot line adjustment process allows for the minor adjustment of a boundary line to transfer land between adjacent property owners provided this does not result in a new building lot or create a lot which is non-conforming to the requirements of the Subdivision or Zoning Ordinance. All land surveys shall comply with the 1973 Survey recording Act, Chapter 50, RCW 58.09.

Renton's downtown must be able to compete with nearby commercial _ areas to avoid decline or deterioration. * Enhance the urban environment for pedestrians: Development throughout the . City is likely to be auto-oriented in the future, unless efforts are made to modify this current trend. Consequently, the City's commercial, office, and industrial areas will continue to be dominated by large surface parking lots that visually detract from the ---- -- environment. Adequate access and amenities for pedestrians must be provided in order to encourage walking and the use of public transit. * Build neighborhoods: In order to develop the sense of community and neighbor- - hood identity.residents would like to see, a concerted effort to "build neighborhoods" •rather than a collection of housing developments is needed. Similarly, efforts to pre- serve those community features which currently provide some of the qualities heldto be important in a community should be implemented before they are lost. _ Scenarios for the Future The policies in this section recommend the following types of solutions to the problems which have been outlined: * Strengthen the image of the City as a separate and distinctive entity within a metropolitan region: The Growth Management Act of 1990 calls for the designation of urban separator areas such as open space corridors within and between urban growth - - areas. One concept introduced in the community design policies that is consistent with this, is the idea of using community separators. These could include interconnecting natural features, parks, boulevards or utility. easements to provide physical and visual distinctions within Renton and between edges of urban growth areas. The built envi- ronment also provides concentrations of built forms, density of development or popula- tion, building height and open spaces which could be used as neighborhood or community separators. , * Revitalize the downtown through urban design: Urban design improvements can come about through a combination of public and private efforts. Ultimately, the corn- mercial center of Renton could be redeveloped as a multi-use center which acknowl- edges the pedestrian through architectural and urban design. Examples include using appropriate scale and detailing on building facades, or, designing the streetscape to be welcoming to the pedestrian. The edges of the downtown must be reinforced and cues should be given to the motorist and pedestrian to lead them into and through the area. A gateway or focal point is one way to communicate arrival into the area. Another op- portunity exists to improve access or establish a relationship between the Cedar River i Page 9-4 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element k Community Design i i', VI.

Summary.of Strategies: 1. Preserve and improve existing neighborhoods: a remove multi-family zoning designations from existing single family neighbor- hoods; b. reduce the scale of new multi-family buildings built in existing multi-family neighborhoods; c. use design controls to ensure that new development fits in existing neighbor- hoods; and d. develop new programs to upgrade existing neighborhoods by adding street trees, sidewalks, or neighborhood parks where needed. 2. Encourage development of more livable new neighborhoods: a. reintroduce development patterns more typical of the pedestrian-oriented small towns of America's past and of the City's older neighborhoods where people can afford to live in neighborhoods that are predominantly single family in character, where streets are safe and pleasant to walk along, and where neigh- borhoods have a "center" formed by parks or small neighborhood business areas located within walking distance of homes. 3. Accommodate future development while preventing urban sprawl and preserv- ing open space: • a. create new high density housing opportunities in Renton's downtown and exist- ing commercial centers; b. allow suitable vacant land in the City to be developed into new neighborhoods at higher densities than have been allowed in conventional developments of the post-war era (change from 6 dwelling units per acre to 10 dwelling units per acre); Page 3-40 • • CITY OF RENTON FEB 21 2000 /7 .2 oa c.)

This location is absolutely unacceptable. The existing traffic problems on Renton Hill encompass every street on the hill. To accurately compile a traffic study the location of the counter should be Renton Avenue South at South 3rd,just before the Stop sign. This is the key entry and exit for the main traffic flow, and is now used by the more than 200 homes on and east of Renton Avenue South. The traffic study location by Bennett homes applies only to 11 homes. Renton Avenue South is a 23 foot wide asphalt road with parking allowed on the East side. More than five (5)years ago the residents of Renton Hill requested and were granted signs that state "Down Hill Traffic Must Yield". This request came because of traffic congestion and sight distant problems on Renton Avenue South. This street is also the main access for Philip Arnold Park and the traffic it brings with park usage. As the only lighted baseball field other than Liberty Park, in the city, from 4 p.m. until the lights go off at 10:30 p.m. traffic flows with game schedules. Baseball and softball games run every hour and fifteen minutes from April thru mid August. Practice starts March 20d'. Football takes over in August and runs as late as November 10th. All of these games generate a great deal of continual traffic with two teams, parents, family, umpires/referees and friends per game. The park is also a favorite picnic and play area. This traffic must be included in any traffic study to obtain the required accurate count. r Renton Avenue South's traffic is past its maximum now. I request all who have to make the decisions regarding this project drive up Renton Avenue South and picture the more than 120 full cement trucks all trying to scale this street. Now picture (during that time) a fire truck, aid car or police car responding to an emergency on Renton Hill. Ruth Larson, President Renton Hill Community Association 714 High Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 r CITY __!F RENTON Planning/Building/Public Works Department Gregg Zimmerman P.E.,Administrator Jesse Tanner,Mayor November 19, 1999 Mr.Timothy Cogger 609 Grant Avenue South Renton,Washington 98055 Re: DEVELOPMENT ON RENTON HILL Dear Mr. Cogger: Thank you for your e-mail of November 11, 1999,regarding a potential development on Renton Hill. The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and apprise you of the current status of this project. In August 1999,Bennett Development submitted a conceptual site plan to the Development Services Division for a 69 lot single family residential development to be located on a site northeast of Arnold Park and the Seattle Water Department water line easement. The approximately 10-acre property is owned by the Renton School District and has been offered for sale as surplus property. Bennett Development has indicated that they have paid the School District a non-refundable deposit in order to purchase the land. The purpose of the August submittal was to meet Development Services requirements for Preliminary Project Review. Departmental comments on the conceptual plan were given to representatives of Bennett Development and their consultants on September 2, 1999,at a pre-application conference. At this meeting, several issues were discussed with the project proponent, including proposed lot size and configuration, private road configuration,access,use of the water line easement,gates on the easement, and road conditions and traffic in the area. Anticipating community opposition to the project, department staff suggested a public meeting be arranged by the project proponent to discuss their concept. This meeting was organized by Bennett Development and held at the Renton Community Center on November 4, 1999. In addition to the representatives of Bennett Development and their consultants,the meeting was attended by a staff member from the Development Services Division and approximately 120 citizens. Most of the issues discussed with City of Renton staff at the pre-application conference were addressed at this meeting. Since that time,the Development Services Division has fielded questions from both the project proponent and citizens of the community. Our understanding is that Bennett Development intends to submit a revised conceptual plan and schedule a second pre-application conference to discuss this new plan. The earliest this meeting can be scheduled at this time is mid-December.

This project abuts the Plat of River Ridge Estates along its entire southern boundary. Needless to say, we are unhappy to see a proposal with such a high density proposed on the Hill. Our greatest concerns are as follows: The latest proposal with access directly to South 7th Court is totally unacceptable and will be fought by all avenues available to us. We contacted an engineer and had him review the proposed access onto South 7th Court and the issues he raised are: 1. The existing South 7th, Jones Avenue, Beacon Way intersection is a non-standard 5-way intersection and the intersection spacing appears to be below the minimum required, thereby the proposed access would require a variance. 2. There are no curb returns shown on the drawings of the proposed intersection. The minimum required is usually 35 feet at the driving lane. Were these requirements adhered to, the intersection could not be built at the proposed location- again a variance would be required. In addition, without the returns, it would be very difficult for large vehicles such as garbage trucks, delivery trucks, fire trucks, etc., to make the corner. 3. This proposal would essentially create one huge intersection, and it would seem imprudent to complicate an existing odd intersection. 4. The section of road connecting the Bennett proposal with South 7th court appears to meet the definition of a neighborhood collector, which would require wider right-of-way and pavement width, sight distance requirements, etc. RED TAD JAN 0 4 2000 BU!LD!NG DMs!o.v 5. The northerly "storm water facility" has 20+ feet of elevation change with the easterly side being 20 feet higher than the proposed intersection. There would be an almost immediate 10-foot cut required at the intersection. It does not appear that with a much lower road on the south, and a higher property to the north, that a detention pond with the required volume and meeting our City standards, could be built at this location. 6. A complete design of this proposed intersection and drainage facility, including downstream capacity, meeting all City standards without variances, should be required prior to it's consideration. It appears that a traffic count was recently done at the intersection of Beacon/Jones/South 7th. We request that special note be made to the fact Phillip Arnold Park is at this intersection, and is heavily used from April to September. Just try scheduling a soccer or soft ball game or picnic spot during this time! During the week, almost all of the activity occurs between 4:00 PM and 9:00 PM. The PM peak hour traffic count at this intersection will be far greater, by a factor of at least 5, during these months as opposed to early December when the traffic study was done. This intersection appears to be a 'lets see what we can get away with" approach. We are curious as to where the proposed development will outfall its storm water. The River Ridge detention pond and bio-swale are privately owned and maintained, and we do not wish any additional water going into them. We cannot speak as "experts" on the traffic issues, however, to those of us driving the Hill every day, it becomes painfully obvious that both Renton Avenue and Cedar Avenue are already problem traffic lanes. With the existing 'limited sight" sections of these streets, and downhill traffic already having to yield to uphill traffic on a street that has virtually one lane of safe travel; we see an increased safety risk being developed. We would like to see the amount of traffic added to these streets kept as low as possible. A plat access up Beacon Way to 116th would be a much wiser, safer approach to this development. Still another grave concern is the great difference in density that is proposed. The subdivision as proposed is much denser than Renton Hill on the average and more than twice the density of River Ridge. When River Ridge was platted, the school district parcel was zoned G-1, one house per acre.-We knew that the property had the potential for development. We also believed the city would require lot size consistent with the overall nature ofthe Hill. We understand that The Growth Management Act's goals are to push development closer in to the incorporated areas. However, both Growth Management and City policy urge compatibility or, if that is not possible, require mitigation to offset the impact on the surrounding neighborhoods. The proposed 4500 SF lots in the Bennett proposal will greatly impact the River Ridge and entire Renton Hill neighborhood. It will be impossible to retain any native vegetation on the. proposed site with lots of this size. We would request that all lots adjacent to River Ridge Estates be increased to 115 feet in depth, which would make them 5175 SF, with the back 15 feet of each lot set aside for a vegetative buffer. We would request the buffer be planted with a solid wall of fast growing evergreens such as Leyland Cyprus a minimum of 10 feet tall at time of planting. We would further request that the homeowners association of the proposed plat be held responsible for the maintenance of the vegetative buffer by including the cost of said maintenance, to include irrigation, in it's budget through association dues. And finally, we would request the developer be required to post a bond assuring their responsibility for the maintenance of the landscaping for a minimum of three years. This is an area that will easily support $350,000 and $400,000 homes and for Bennett to submit the attached proposal saddens all of us. We are truly disappointed that Bennett has so little respect for Renton's oldest neighborhood, and would hope the City of Renton feels the same. The elimination of the proposed intersection on South 7th court and the vegetative screening are issues we, as neighbors will not budge on. We are prepared to litigate if necessary to attain these goals. Sincerely, QGQ-- u%)ni3t- Douglas Bergquist, President River Ridge Estates Homeowners Association.

Thank you for conveying these concerns about the potential development of a ten-acre property located on Renton Hill. The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and to apprise you of the opportunities you will have to provide additional comments. First, allow me to address your comment regarding the sale of the land. The Renton School District, which is a separate entity from the City of Renton,is regulated by state law(Revised Code of Washington 28A.335.120)to follow set procedures to sell land not needed for school use. In early 1997,the District declared the property as surplus. Notice of intent to sell the property was published in the South County Journal in April 1997. In January 1999,the property was listed with a real estate sales company,who then solicited bids. A purchase and sale agreement was negotiated with the highest bidder in March 1999. All of the actions taken by the School Board occurred during open public session. Regarding the traffic situation,the City shares your concern for vehicle/pedestrian safety and circulation on Renton Hill. A traffic study was required of the applicant as part of the project proposal. This is being reviewed by Transportation Services and Engineering Plan Review staff. The Emergency Services providers (Police Department and Fire Prevention Bureau)will also be involved in review of proposed plans submitted to the City. In addition to traffic problems particular to Renton Hill,you are undoubtedly aware of increased traffic volumes throughout the City and region. This is partly the result of an increase in population in the Puget Sound area that exceeds growth during the same period in other parts of the United States. In order to cope with this growth,in 1990,the State of Washington passed the Growth Management Act(GMA). As part of the GMA,the population growth for the Puget Sound area was estimated for twenty years into the future. Each jurisdiction has an obligation to provide housing for their"fair share"of the increased regional population growth. In the City of Renton,the belief is that the quality of life will be better if this new growth can be accommodated in single family homes. The Renton Hill property being proposed for new development has been zoned for single family residential homes. 1055 South Grady Way - Renton, Washington 98055 - (425)430-6500 /FAX(425)430-6523 Ms. Josephine Potter 1314 South 7tb Street Renton,WA 98055-3065 We do appreciate,your concern for Renton and the residents of Renton Hill.

We understand sometime back the zoning for this parcel was up-zoned to allow as many as eight homes to the acre. Clearly this was allowed without a careful review of the impact on the surrounding area as it is totally out of character with any of the neighborhoods around it. If possible,we would like to have a review of the appropriateness of this change. About half that—four homes to the acre—is more appropriate to the situation. As you likely know, access to Renton Hill is over two adjacent overpasses crossing I- 405. Once across the freeway,Renton Avenue South and Cedar Avenue South are the two main streets that serve Renton Hill.Renton Avenue is the wider and steeper of the two with parking on one side and a poor sight-line near the top.It has been widened until the curbs are literally inches from the power poles. Cedar Avenue is quite narrow with parking on both sides and functions more as a quiet dead-end street where kids play. Connecting the two at the top of the hill is South 7`h street, which is so steep it likely would not be allowed to be built under to" day's standards. Crossing the top of Renton Hill for access to the proposed Bennett development is South 76 Street. It has sidewalks on some blocks, deep ditches on some blocks, and several intersections without so much as a Yield or Stop sign. Unless Bennett homes is prepared to underground the overhead wires, regrade and widen Renton Avenue South, and bring South 7`h Avenue up to proper standards with curbs, sidewalks, and signage,there simply is not the street infrastructure to support near the traffic 60 to 80 additional homes would incur. With some improvements and good luck, maybe half the proposed number of houses could be accommodated. We understand Bennett Homes counted the cars crossing the overpasses for a few hours and reported the results to the City of Renton as a Traffic Study. This is totally inadequate and Bennett homes, experienced in building homes for over 18 years, knows this is inadequate. To us,it was Bennett Homes calling the City of Renton employees stupid idiots who could be easily fooled.Needless to say,we are deeply disappointed in Bennett Home' actions. To properly count the cars,two counters concurrently counting the traffic near the north stop signs on Cedar Avenue and Renton Avenue are required. Add 75 or so to the number of cars counted to account for activities that occur at Philip Arnold Park 02/19/00 Dan and Liz Hemenway Page I of 2 throughout the summer months that do not appear in the traffic count during the colder months. Also add the impact of 15-20 homes to account for those currently under construction and the sites that are likely to be developed within the next few years.We then will have an appropriate Traffic Study from which to base more informed opinions.

My home is on Renton Ave So. I have lived at this location for over 30 years and I believe that a project between 60 to 80 homes would cause traffic chaos on Renton Hill. As you are aware Renton Hill is a no outlet neighborhood. Every car coming up the hill must also go back down the hill. The traffic on Renton Ave So. And Cedar Ave So. Would be increased dramatically(60 homes x 2 cars x 3 trips per day=360 cars)that will use these streets everyday. Renton Ave So. is a narrow street with parking on only one side. It was not designed to handle this increased volume of traffic. Cedar Ave So. which has parking on both sides cannot handle current volumes let alone the proposed increased amount of cars. In closing, I would like to see the Renton School District or the City of Renton find a more suitable use of the property that would benefit the city as a whole and not just a builder or a few homeowners.to the detriment of many. Let's preserve our open spaces. Cordially, Patricia Gilroy • Homeowner 535 Renton Ave So. Renton, WA. 98055 �.v FI o v --(AS March 27, 2000 DEVELOPMENT 'NNING Mayor Jesse Tanner CITY OF c';,t�''N City of Renton APR 0 3 2000 1055 So Grady Way Renton, Wa 98055 RECEIVED Re: Your Letter Dated March 22, 2000 (Development on Renton Hill) Dear Hon Mayor: Thank you for responding to our February 17 letter. Apparently your staff was a little confused when compiling your response. Even though all properties in the City were rezoned to implement the twenty year Comprehensive Plan under the Growth Management Act, it also allowed variances for those properties that were not accessible except through improved road and street systems. The ten acres on top of Renton Hill, and subsequent 56 homes and related traffic, is such an area that can only be accessed by streets that are in excess of five feet narrower than the City's own Plan will allow for new developments. I am sure that the Comprehensive Plan would not allow legal street widths to be narrower than the law allows for new developments. Therefore, the re-zone somewhat conflicts with the City's laws and ordinances for minimum street width access. I doubt very seriously that the developer could afford to widen Renton Avenue for almost its entire length, nor Cedar Avenue, which was already re-built in 1975. Lastly, your letter stated: "By concentrating the growth within the city, the hope is to provide greater opportunities for wildlife to develop habitats outside of, or on the edges of, the City." It is highly unlikely that, unless physically relocated by the State Department of Game, the eight deer that inhabit our neighborhood will want to "develop in a habitat" outside the City limits. Since they raise their young in our back yards between Cedar and Jones and between 4th and 10th Streets, any new development in the ten acre natural habitat proposed for development will only force the deer deeper into our neighborhood instead of"outside the City limits." Thank you for your continued concern and I trust that level thinking will prevail.

Thank you for conveying your concerns about the potential development of a ten acre property located on Renton Hill. The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and apprise you of the opportunities you will have to provide additional comments. The City shares your concern for traffic circulation and vehicle/pedestrian safety on Renton Hill. The City of Renton Engineering Plan Review Division and Public Works Departments have already discussed this issue and will continue to do so. The Emergency Services providers (Police Department and Fire Prevention Bureau)would also be involved in review of any proposed plans submitted to the City. In addition to traffic problems particular to Renton Hill,you are undoubtedly aware of increased traffic volumes throughout the City and region. This is partly the result of an increase in population in the Puget Sound area that exceeds growth during the same period in other parts of the United States. In order to cope with this growth,in 1990,the State of Washington passed the Growth Management Act(GMA).As part of the GMA,the population growth for the Puget Sound area was estimated for twenty years into the future. Each city and county was told how much of that growth they would be expected to accommodate. Each jurisdiction has an obligation to provide housing for their"fair share"of the increased regional population growth. In the City of Renton,the belief is that the quality of life will be better if this new • growth can be accommodated in single family homes. In 1993,all properties in the City were rezoned to implement the twenty year Comprehensive Plan under the GMA. We do appreciate your concern for Renton and the residents of Renton Hill. Your letter has made you a "party of record"so you will be notified if an application for this project is submitted to the City.

We would like to clarify that no proposal has been submitted to the City nor has a land use application been received. Should such a proposal be submitted,it will be reviewed with the utmost diligence by the Development Services Department of the City. Just as citizens of our community have a right to oppose development projects,property owners have the right to propose development. Such projects must be consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan and zoning regulations of the City. Obviously,property owners also have the right to sell their land to others. When a private property owner applies to develop or redevelop their land,the City is obligated by law to accept and process those applications. If the development is consistent with adopted plans and codes of the City,then it must be approved. It may be approved,however,with conditions that address potential impacts to the environment. We appreciate the comments of our citizens when formulating these conditions. Government,however,cannot intercede in property owners' decisions to develop or to sell their land to developers. Also,like all school districts in the State of Washington,the Renton School District is required to follow certain procedures, set by state law,when disposing of land not needed for school facilities. It is our understanding that these procedures were followed by the school district. The proceeds from such sales are used for other school facilities,equipment,and programs. We do appreciate your concern for Renton and the residents of Renton Hill. Your letter has made you a"party of record"so you will be notified if an application for this project is submitted to the City.

The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and apprise you of the opportunities you will have to provide additional comments. We would also like to clarify that no proposal has been submitted to the City nor has a land use application been received. Should such a proposal be submitted,it will be reviewed with the utmost diligence by the Development Services Department of the City. Just as citizens of our community have a right to oppose development projects,property owners have the right to propose development. Such projects must be consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan and zoning regulations of the City. Obviously,property owners also have the right to sell their land to others. When a private property owner applies to develop or redevelop their land,the City is obligated by law to accept and process those applications. If the development is consistent with adopted plans and codes of the City,then it must be approved. It may be approved,however,with conditions that address potential impacts to the environment. We appreciate the comments of our citizens when formulating these conditions. Government,however,cannot intercede in property owners'decisions to develop or to sell their land to developers. Also,like all school districts in the State of Washington,the Renton School District is required to follow certain procedures,set by state law,when disposing of land not needed for school facilities. It is our understanding that these procedures were followed by the school district. The proceeds from such sales are used for other school facilities,equipment,and programs.

Dear Mr. Haro: • I am writing about a residential development project planned for a ten acre area near the intersections of 7th Place S., Beacon Way South and Jones Avenue South. The developer is planning a little over 56 homes in this tract. These homes, added to the existing homes on Renton Hill, will put an unusual burden of traffic on Renton Avenue South. Renton Ave. So varies in width from 25' - 11" to 26' - 2" wide and has 210 homes that access this street only. I am sure that this width is under-designed for the proposed traffic loading. (Which would be 2.5 vehicle trips per day times the number homes serving directly onto Renton Ave (210), or 665 • daily trips for residences only. This figure does not include the Park). Given this many car-trips per residence per day, plus the seasonal sports- related traffic to Philip Arnold Park for baseball, little league football practice, and softball scheduled for this park, Renton Avenue will become difficult for existing residents.to traverse. At the present time there is parking allowed on only one side of the street, but the street is not wide enough for double passing on the remaining pavement. Thus, the signs at the top that say "Yield To Uphill Traffic." My wife and I are asking your help in questioning the viability of this project when it is submitted to the City for review. Based on this data, I hope you agree with us in making Renton Avenue south safe for our children to cross without dodging more cars. There are no street intersections between South 3rd and South 7th, thus pedestrians may feel free to cross at any point. With parking allowed on .only one side, visitors to the west side must cross to the .east. When Renton • Avenue is slow, people tend to go down Cedar Avenue which has parking on both sides. It should be noted that Cedar Ave South varies in width from 26' - 10" to 27 feet wide. This does not allow for two way traffic except at points where there are no vehicles parked. Thus, adding 56 homes and the related 140 additional vehicles per day is not in the best interests of the existing residents on Renton Hill. The developer does not wish to widen Renton Avenue to the legal width for a collector street. We wish to express our concerns to you at this time. Thank you for your assistance. 0 ‘ 1 ,ao Bill Collins 420 Cedar Ave So Renton 98055 CITY OF RENTON FEB 2 3 2000 Rich and Cindy Yarbrough 338 Renton Ave. S. CITY CLERKS OFFICE Renton,WA 98055 Renton City Council City of Renton 1055 S Grady Way Renton WA 98055 February 21, 2000 Dear Renton City Council, - As you know,the Bennet Homes Developers are trying to purchase and develop the land on Renton Hill just across from Philip Arnold Park. Bennet Homes is planning to build approximately 70 homes. I understand that the land is owned by the Renton School District. The main thoroughfare to get to Renton Hill is the street Renton Ave S. Currently this street is very busy with traffic and is only a one-lane road where there is parking on the east side of the street. Down hill traffic has to continually pull over to let the uphill traffic through. Building 70 more homes at the top of Renton Hill will exponentially cause much more traffic and safety problems. With all the major freeway traffic problems that everyone must contend with every day, it would be nice not to have to contend with additional traffic problems and volumes in our own neighborhood. Also, We think that building more homes instead of more Natural Park like areas is the last thing any city really needs. There is constant development in Renton,where all trees are cut down and apartments, condos, houses and strip malls are being built. Look at SE 128th St. (Cemetery Hill road) in the Renton Highlands in the last year. Currently there is massive development going on there. It is time to really look at what is happening to our city. There must be a better solution to all this development. Yes, there needs to be some development but probably not as much as there is now. We were wondering if there is a better solution to the Renton Hill property project. These are alternatives we have thought of for use of the property: 1. Perhaps the Renton School District could donate the land to the City of Renton and the City could make a nature park or bird sanctuary out of it. This type of solution could benefit so many Renton residents rather than just putting more money into the pockets of a developer. The park area would provide a teaching environment for children, a place for school field trips to be taken, for family nature walks, and would help the environment and beauty of Renton. 2. Consider the residents of Renton Hill purchasing the land and donating it to the City as"open space". Perhaps the City of Renton could create a separate tax district and the Renton Hill residents would have to vote to tax themselves over the next 30 years to pay for the land. 3. Sell the property to 2 or 3 parties that would only build single homes giving them estate sized property. This would increase the value of all Renton Hill. 4. Only allow Bennet Homes or any other builder to build 30 homes on the property giving approximately 1/3 acre lots to each home site. At least this would cut down some on the additional traffic problems and would leave more open space between the homes rather than cramming the houses so close together like some many other new neighborhoods in Renton. Please consider this carefully as you decide whether to grant Bennet Homes a building permit and a go ahead to purchase the property. It is time to put the environment and quality of living in Renton above the buck. Thank you, ti't‘ct2 Lye, Rich and C' dy Yarbrou r CITY OF February 17, 2000 Renton City Council RENTON City of Renton FEB 2 1 2000 1055 So Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 RECEIVED CITY CLERK'S OFFICE Dear Council Members: I am writing to you concerning the development of a 10-acre piece of property in my Renton Hill neighborhood located to the north of Philip Arnold park. It has already attracted the attention of Bennett Homes as a possible sight for fifty plus homes! I maintain this acreage has a much better use than more homes. A major consideration is the stress on our infrastruacture in terms of increased use of our neighborhood streets. These extra cars will add a negative impact- especially during the spring, summer and fall sports seasons when Philip Arnold park is heavily used. Another glut of cars would add to the wear and tear on road surfaces, spew out more air pollutants and noise (the freeway through our neighborhood already adds this aplenty), increase congestion at the two exit points on the hill, and make safety concerns for pedestrians, pets, children, and the growing number of bike riders very real. I don't believe we can underestimate the value of this "jewel" in our midst. If it is allowed to be lost forever under homes and paved surfaces,the number of people who benefit will be limited to only those homeowners living there. But another,higher use could be felt by our entire community for years to come if its potential as a green space is realized and acted upon by forward-thinking officials and citizens. With the grant writing expertise employed both by Renton and Renton School - District personnel, it should be very possible to find monies to underwrite the cost of turning this area into an urban wildlife and nature preserve,bird sanctuary and ecology and environmental study space; all these are areas of science study by Renton students. This plan allows a minimum of intrusion by humans and a maximum of benefit for already stressed wildlife and people. Such an innovative and aware approach to land use would truly mark Renton as a city "ahead of the curve." I respectfully ask you to consider this proposal as the better use of this precious land.

As you near completion of your respective Taj Mahals could you possibly consider giving some attention to the prospect of Bennett Homes' proposal to destroy forever a 10+acre portion of Renton Hill by building some 60+houses thereon? We understand they only have an option on the property and that no formal petition for a building permit, etc.,has yet been presented to the Council. However,knowing how alert our crack city administration is,I am sure you are unofficially well aware of their intent. It is not an exaggeration to declare their initiative a potential disaster for the stalwart denizens who live high atop beautiful, and relatively peaceful,Renton Hill. No one who knows Renton Hill even casually can be unaware of the traffic disaster its two undersized and over-trafficked streets present and what the impact of another 60+ houses and at least an additional 120 vehicles would have on our fragile links to the western world. To permit additional development up here would be tantamount to abandonment of your responsibility to help maintain our quality of life. I would commend to you the following: The City should use whatever means available to urge the School Board to transfer the land in question to the City. The City could then charge the fine Park Department with developing the land into something of value to all. It is possible the City might have to buy the land from the School District. Raising $2.2 million for such a noble purpose should be no challenge for an administration which was able to conjure $20 million+out of whole.cloth for our grand new City Hall, in arrogant disregard of repeated voter disapproval. Finally, shame on the School Board for seriously considering letting those 10+ acres slip from the public domain, probably under the premise that $2.2 million would make a difference in raising the standards of education in our community., As if 3 months from now anyone would remember where the$2.2 million went. To any who may have read this,thank you. To all, please try to do the right thing in this matter. Bert H. Custer • • • • GRY� BertH. Custer � PM � 714 Cedar Ave. So. .• rM; .

Let there be no misunderstanding, I am writing this letter on behalf of my family and the preservation of the integrity of the neighborhood. With special attention to the wildlife. and vegetation,that speak for themselves, but in a language which does not support the bottom line...money. An example, the other day I was driving up the hill and was taken aback by a full-grown deer majestically standing at the top of the hill. Though it would be a hassle I could move my family to another place if the Bennett Homes Construction Company gets their way...it won't be so easy for the deer to relocate. Does Bennett Homes have a contingency plan for the forest and wildlife it is wiping out? My husband and I recently purchased a home on the Renton Hill and will be moving in to this community on April 01,,2000. We have lived in the Queen Anne neighborhood for the last few years and have enjoyed living in the city. During our search for a home we looked at many neighborhoods in Seattle,but decided on Renton Hill because of its charm, nearby forest and park with the additional bonus of an older more tight knit community than a newer development. Unfortunately, adding 60 new homes would not continue to support the aforementioned factors which were the rationale behind our purchase...the traffic up that hill alone will be a nightmare. The reality is...the makeup of the neighborhood celebrates a diverse mix of affluence,, education, passion and most important of all we are united together against this proposition. I am not naive...this is about money, not the protection of wildlife and the natural habitat....our neighborhood will not sit idle, but will fight every step of the way. Reaards. 07.

The City shares your concern for traffic circulation and vehicle/pedestrian safety on Renton Hill. The City of Renton Engineering Plan Review Division and Public Works Departments have already discussed this issue and will continue to do so. The Emergency Services providers(Police Department and Fire Prevention Bureau)would also be involved in review of any proposed plans submitted to the City. In addition to traffic problems particular to Renton Hill,you are undoubtedly aware of increased traffic volumes throughout the City and region. This is partly the result of an increase in population in the Puget Sound area that exceeds growth during the same period in other parts of the United States. In order to cope with this growth,in 1990,the State of Washington passed the Growth Management Act(GMA). As part of the GMA,the population growth for the Puget Sound area was estimated for twenty years into the future. Each city and county was told how much of that growth they would be expected to acconunodate. Each jurisdiction has an obligation to provide housing for their"fair share"of the increased regional population growth.In the City of Renton,the belief is that the quality of life will be better if this new growth can be accommodated in single family homes.In 1993,all properties in the City were rezoned to implement the twenty year Comprehensive Plan under the GMA. Another aspect of the GMA is that the projected population growth must remain within city limits,in order to preserve our forest and agricultural lands that lay beyond the city. We are aware of the pressure on wildlife that comes with increasing development.The reality is that some wildlife adapts more readily to urbanization.By concentrating the growth within the city,the hope is to provide greater opportunities for wildlife to develop habitats outside of,or on the edges of,the city.

The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and to apprise you of the opportunities you will have to provide additional comments. In 1990,the State of Washington passed the Growth Management Act(GMA). An aspect of the GMA is that the population growth must remain within city limits, in order to preserve our forest and agricultural lands that lay beyond the city.We are aware of the pressure on wildlife that comes with increasing development. The reality is that some wildlife adapts more readily to urbanization. By concentrating the growth within the city,the hope is to provide greater opportunities for wildlife to develop habitats outside of, or on the edges of,the city. The School District,which is a separate entity from the City of Renton, is regulated by state law(Revised Code of Washington 28A.335.120)to follow set procedures to sell land not needed for school use. One aspect of the law is that the land must be sold for at least ninety percent of the market value. We do appreciate your concern for Renton and the residents of Renton Hill.

Mayor Jesse Tanner March 22,2000 Rich and Cindy Yarbrough 338 Renton Avenue South Renton,WA 98055 Re: Development on Renton Hill Dear Mr.and Mrs.Yarbrough: This letter is written in response to your letter of February 21,2000.Thank you for conveying your concerns about the potential development of a ten acre property located on Renton Hill.The purpose of this response is to acknowledge your concerns and to apprise you of the opportunities you will have to provide additional comments. The City shares your concern for traffic circulation and vehicle/pedestrian safety on Renton Hill. The City of Renton Engineering Plan Review Division andPublic Works Departments have already discussed this issue and will continue to do so. The Emergency Services providers(Police Department and Fire Prevention Bureau)would also be involved in review of any proposed plans submitted to the City. In addition to traffic problems particular to Renton Hill,you are undoubtedly aware of increased traffic volumes throughout the City and region. This is partly the result of an increase in population in the Puget Sound area that exceeds growth during the same period in other parts of the United States. In order to cope with this growth,in 1990,the State of Washington passed the Growth Management Act(GMA). As part of the GMA,the population growth for the Puget Sound area was estimated for twenty years into the future. Each city and county was told how much of that growth they would be expected to accommodate. Each jurisdiction has an obligation to provide housing for their"fair share"of the increased regional population growth.In the City of Renton,the belief is that the quality of life will be better if this new growth can be accommodated in single family homes. In 1993,all properties in the City were rezoned to implement the twenty year Comprehensive Plan under the GMA. We appreciate the creative ideas you put forth in your letter,unfortunately,the School District,which is a separate entity from the City of Renton,is regulated by state law(Revised Code of Washington 28A.335.120)to follow set procedures to sell land not needed for school use. One aspect of the law is that the land must be sold for at least ninety percent of the market value. It is our understanding that the school district followed required procedures for notification of the sale of this property. We do appreciate your concern for Renton and the residents of Renton Hill. Your letter has made you a"party of record"so you will be notified if an application for this project is submitted to the City.

Elizabeth Higgins,AICP Senior Planner Development/Planning Development Services Division February 22, 2000 Ms Susan Carlson Dept. of Economic Development, Neighborhoods&Strategic Planning City of Renton 1005 S Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 Dear Ms Susan Carlson: My wife and I have lived on Renton Hill for the past ten years. We have found it to be a very quiet community where people take walks in the street and enjoy Philip Arnold Park. We live just one block from the park and we can hear the children playing. It is a well-used park especially in the spring and fall. There is a wooded area east of the park where a small herd of deer lives that makes occasional forays into the surrounding gardens. Renton Hill is historic; it is built on top of old coalmines. These mines have been long abandoned, but the original miners and their families who lived and worked here set the nature of the community. More recently a score or more large homes have been built on the hill and integrated gradually into the neighborhood. These additions have begun to put a strain on the traffic through the community. I understand that the Renton School Board has sold the woods to the east of Philip Arnold Park to developers-Bennett Homes. The planned development of about 60 new homes on the property across from Philip Arnold Park causes me great concern in several areas. Street Traffic-Access to Renton Hill is limited to two streets,which pass over the 405 freeway. The hill drops sharply to the freeway and the Cedar River. This cuts off access from the north and northeast. Grant Ave S, which appears on maps to give access from the south, is barricaded and does not go through. There is a road that runs by the electrical substation, which gives access to Philip Arnold Park, but it is also barricaded and only opened when snow or ice makes Renton Ave S inaccessible. Renton Ave S is the road most used to get to the top of the hill. Renton Ave S is a narrow, very steep street. Because of the street's narrowness downhill traffic must yield to uphill traffic(parking is restricted to the east side). In winter or during heavy rains the street is slick and treacherous. Large trucks serving the neighborhood have a difficult time making it up the hill and service vehicles, when they must use the west side of the street, pose a hazard. Renton Ave S is used for cross country runners and bicyclists for stamina training because of its steepness. I am concerned that 60 additional families using Renton Ave S and S 7th Street will cause a dangerous hazard because of the increased traffic, especially during the winter. Erosion -The hillside above the Cedar River is very steep and has trees. The trees on the hillside and on top of the hill will be removed, I suppose, to build the houses. I am concerned that the runoff from the new houses • will erode the bank as well as run down S 7th street, causing more problems for the neighborhood. Habitat-The 60 homes development will eliminate ten acres of wooded land. The animals now living in the woods on the top of the hill will loose their habitat. Mountain bike riders will find that another place to enjoy is gone. The woods and the park complement each other. . I feel that the number of new houses planned by Bennett Homes is too large. I would rather see the woods used for other purposes that would enhance the neighborhood rather than reduce the quality of life. Perhaps the woods could be kept as is and used as a bird and animal sanctuary where ecological and environmental studies could be carried out. I would like to see the City of Renton and the Renton School Board take an interest in this matter. Working together with the members of the neighborhood we could come up with an innovative program that would benefit the School District, the City, and the neighborhood.

We are requesting your help and cooperation with the Renton School District to see if we can fmd a way that the property the District is selling (across from Philip Arnold Park) can be used to enhance rather than destroy one of Renton's oldest neighborhoods. Our roads are now past capacity and the magnitude of the project proposed will gridlock Renton Avenue South and create an insurmountable safety issue. We would have to request a great deal of traffic control items at the Cities expense. (Cross walks at every corner and in areas where there are no corners, yield or stop signs at every corner, speed limit signs, Police patrols for traffic control, traffic light changes as far as length of time per cycle on Mill Ave. So. and So. 4th Ave., left turn must yield for northbound traffic on Mill at Houser Way, more pedestrian controls at the entrance to the former brick yard area and clarification of this properties usage—park/river trail or construction/dredging storage, more yield to up hill traffic signs, three sight distant signs where appropriate and grade signs on Renton Ave. So.) I have explained to the Renton Hill Residents that the City of Renton is not officially on record to address this development. We are looking ahead and if this project is filed want to be on record with all of our concerns. Thank you, - Ruth Larson, President Renton Hill Community Association Cc: Dr. Dolores Gibbons, Superintendent Renton School Board Renton School District 403 Renton School District 403 I � V February, 19, 2000 Dr. Dolores Gibbons, Superintendent Renton School Board Renton School District 403 Renton School District 403 300 S.W. 7th Street 300 S.W. 7th Street Renton, Wa. 98055 Renton, Wa. 98055 I am writing in regard to the proposed development of the Renton School District property located adjacent to Phillip Arnold Park, on Renton Hill. Nineteen years ago I was elected as the President of the Renton Hill Community Association. Each time rumors of the sale of this property were made I called the Renton School District and ask if this land was being offered for sale. The District would tell me the property was not for sale and I would ask to be contacted if the property was ever offered and leave my number. I was assured I would be notified. At least thirty calls were made over the last nineteen years and now that property has been sold and because of the lack of communication the neighborhood I have lived in since 1963 is in jeopardy. The proposed usage of this property would add sixty homes to the top of Renton Hill and completely gridlock our neighborhood. The formula now used by The City of Renton is: 9.55 car trips per day for each single-family home. This adds up to 573 trips that will all use Renton Avenue South. There are already 208 plus homes now using this street as well as all traffic using Philip Arnold Park.Renton Avenue South has just twenty-three felt of driving pavement and parking is allowed on the East side of the street. The street is posted "Down Hill Traffic Must Yield"; it has been deemed unsafe for school bus traffic because of grade and has two "site distant" areas. I would like the following questions answered: Why was my request for contact not honored? Why was the neighborhood not considered when this property was offered (recommendations and restrictions can be placed on property for sale)? Where will the money received be spent? Will the taxpayers of the Renton School get their property taxes lowered? Will taxes be lowered with the sale of Henry Ford School and its property? Why did the School District not propose a usage of this property that would benefit the district, the neighborhood and the City of Renton? Proposed usage: Bird and wild life sanctuary. A study area for ecological and environmental impacts of seasonal foliage and wildlife including nature trails. We see a lot of publicity regarding the-salmon studies the district does with its students, why not broaden that study to include our fast declining outdoors. There are very few places left within the Renton School District that have been undisturbed for more than fifty years. (To my knowledge the only usage of this property in the last fifty plus years has been a sometimes dump for the Renton School District.) Both the Renton School District and the City of Renton have excellent Grant writers. With mutual cooperation funding could and would be found for a District/City area used to educate our children in the ways.nature works. I talked to one of my neighbors about this project and when I was done her four year old ask "but where will the deer live?" My reply"I don't know". If this proposal is submitted to the City of Renton for permits, the citizens of Renton Hill will be asking The City of Renton to deny any application that will add to the already overburdened traffic on Renton Avenue South and destroy this natural area.

The hill, Renton Ave. S can not handle any more traffic. I am stopped a couple of times a week by vehicles blocking an area of one of the streets by garbage truck or utility truck. People having to yield to right of way of vehicles coming up the hill would grow by over a 100 vehicles.At 4:00 on a weekday now, I might have to pull over 4 times before I get down the hill. It will be rush hour on Renton Hill. I also do not know where the intersection to the Bennett Homes would go. There is already to many intersections (5) going to the Phillip Arnold Park entrance. I see people getting confused at that intersection quite a bit. With spring and summer coming up we will have all the baseball games and private parties at the park. When will a tragedy happen, because people got confused on the intersection,and a little child crosses the street not knowing where to go. The property should be left as a green belt for the children and nature. We already have an over population of deer and many other animals on the hill where will they go. I would like to see us keep this area for the deer in the area and other wildlife.Most of the people on Renton Hill have had family up here for over 50 years there is a lot of history on this hill.

The developer is planning a little over 56 homes in this tract. These homes, added to the existing homes on Renton Hill, will put an unusual burden of traffic on Renton Avenue South. Renton Ave. So varies in width from 25' - 11" to 26' - 2" wide and has 210 homes that access this street only. I am sure that this width is under-designed for the proposed traffic loading. (Which would be 2.5 vehicle trips per day times the number homes serving directly onto Renton Ave (210), or 665 daily trips for residences only. This figure does not include the Park). Given this many car-trips per residence per day, plus the seasonal sports- related traffic to Philip Arnold Park for baseball, little league football practice, and softball- scheduled for this park, Renton Avenue will become difficult for existing residents to traverse. At the present time there is parking allowed on only one side of the street, but the street is not wide enough for double passing on the remaining pavement. Thus, the signs at the top that say "Yield To Uphill Traffic." My wife and I are asking your help in questioning the viability of this project when it is submitted to the City for review. Based on this data, I hope you agree with us in making Renton Avenue south safe for our children to cross without dodging more cars. There are no street intersections between South 3rd and South 7th, thus pedestrians may feel free to cross at any point. With parking allowed on only one side, visitors to the west side must cross to the east. When Renton Avenue is slow, people tend to go down Cedar Avenue which has parking on both sides. It should be noted that Cedar Ave South varies in width from 26' - 10" to 27 feet wide. This does not allow for two way traffic except at points where there are no vehicles parked. Thus, adding 56 homes and the related 140 additional vehicles per day is not in the best interests of the existing residents on Renton Hill. The developer does not wish to widen Renton Avenue to the legal width for a collector street. We wish to express our concerns to you at this time. Thank you for your assistance..

I have sent letters to the School Board,the Mayor, and the City Council. I found your web site and decided that your department is probably involved. If not it should be. Attached is a copy of the letter that I sent to the Mayor, etc. I would appreciate your attention. Yours truly, Michael D Mack /G'o 709 High Ave. So. Renton, WA 98055 February 18, 2000 CITY OF RENTON 69' /� FEB 2 1 2000 Gd` vt-- 6-J RECEIVED vlaff CITY CLERKS OFFICE As a 45 year resident of Renton .Hill , I am requesting that you do everything in your power to negate the building permit of 60+ homes on the property across from Phillip Arnold Park. If the 60+ homes are approved it would destroy the quality of life as we know it. The traffic problems would cause disastrous. compli Cations, rife with accidents on the only two streets (So. Seventh and Cedar) accessing the neighborhood at the top of the hill . Two- way traffic on these streets, with parking, as now allowed, will seriously hamper and cause bottlenecks for emergency vehicles -- fire engines, police, Medic I, ambulances -- causing loss of property and life. At present there are no marked crosswalks which can cause accidents for pedestrians and_ especially for the many school children who use these streets. These are problems already encountered but will be greatly compounded if additional homes in the proposed development are built. Another serious problem is the maintenance and closure of the street work required due to the sinking of the roadway caused by the innumerable mine shafts throughout the area. This has been an ongoing problem over the years, especially on 7th Ave. and with additional vehicles,will only persist indefinitely. This property should be given first option to public usage for projects such as parks, nature trails, natural vegetation study etc. Sincerely, CITY OF RENTON Planning/Building/Public Works MEMORANDUM DATE: March 3, 2000 TO: Letter Reviewers FROM: Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner, (425)430-7382 SUBJECT: Response Letters re: Bennett Homes project Attached to this memo are draft copies of letters written in response to citizen concern letters directed to the Mayor(LOG#20019-C). All letters are similar, but each is directly responsive to the concerns raised in the original letter. I felt a form letter would not be appropriate because of the diversity of concerns (approximately 23 issues were raised in the 28 letters), several issues, however, were somewhat universal. The Renton School District has provided a copy of their response letter (attached). Whether they properly followed procedures in the RCW is not our concern at this time. They have assured me that they did. I have tried to keep the letters to one page, and have reduced the point size on the longer letters to do so. I will send the document that has these letters written consecutively with page breaks, as an email attachment, to whomever when directed to do so.

Other than the concern of the traffic problems that will occur,I would like to speak about the personal side of what this property means and what it has to offer. I have been a resident of Old Renton Hill for 32 years. My children played in the pit area(that's what we have called it for years)while they grew up. They walked the trails,picked wild flowers,hunted for snakes,made forts, and picked wild blackberries. Now,my grandchildren come to visit and I take them to the pit area often. We take bread crumbs for the ants,put carrots at the rabbit holes and throw nuts for the squirrels. We walk the trails and go on treasure hunts. They truly enjoy seeing the deer come out and walk in the park. My father who is 83 years old,comes to visit each summer from California and his greatest joy is to pick wild berries for a homemade pie. Please consider the fact that families being able to make memories together in the quiet space across from the park is priceless. Together,let's work hard to preserve this small portion of land that so many have enjoyed in their • own special way. It's getting harder and harder to find a quiet space to share peaceful times together and do fun things. Let's not let all the future family times and memories that are yet to be made,be taken away. It would be a compliment to the city of Renton to enhance this area for generations to come. At the cliffs edge, people could drive up to see a sweeping view of Renton,the Space Needle and all the surrounding areas. From a high point,it's spectacular. This would be a nice attraction to the City of Renton. I don't know if there is any such attraction in our city. It would be a terrible loss for our neighborhood and the City of Renton to have this taken away for a monetary advancement. Remember,when it's gone, it will be gone forever.

I understand your desire to have the property remain in the current natural state and your apprehension over additional traffic and infrastructure concerns. As cities grow and mature, questions of preservation, compliance with the Growth Management Act, and . individual citizen preferences sometimes collide. • I thought perhaps a review of the school district's actions would be informative. All school board meetings are open to the public and are posted as to time and date in the local papers. Meetings the Kohlwes Education on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month at Center at 300 SW 7th Street at 7:00 p.m. All of the following board actions were taken in open public session: 1 /22/97 Board declared proposal to sell several parcels of . surplus property 3/26/97 Notice of intent to sell the property was published in the , 4/2/97 South County Journal (twice) • 4/9197 Board held public hearing on the proposal to sell surplus property 5/28/97 Board declared property surplus 1 0/1 /98 Request for proposal for real estate advisor issued 1 /7/99 District entered into exclusive sales listing agreement with Colliers International • Page 1 • Kohlwes Education Center 63- U'-dd 11 ; 0m !(r.IVI'IV ovilvva, aiavai.av • -- ----- — • 1 /27/99 Colliers sent solicitations for bids on property 3/24/99 Purchase and sale agreement negotiated with highest bidder. Feasibility studies are in progress that may i modestly adjust the price depending on density. The school district operates under a complex set of laws, policies, and the . State Constitution regarding property. As you can see from the list above, actions to declare and sell surplus proptthere saletightly of property dictate The that laws regulating the use of proceeds fromP the dollars be placed in the capital projects fund. A section of the Constitution of the State of Washington applies to school district property that prohibits the district from othera " ift" Article VIII, Paragraph 7 states no county, city, town ormunicipal corporation (such as school districts) shall hereafter give any money or property or. loan its money.or credit to or in Additionld of al stateylawsvidual govern the association company, or corporation. conveyance and acquisition of property as well e salethe ofmanagement real property and appraisal of property. Other laws regulate the use of proceeds. I believe we have met the letter and spirit of the laws and the State Constitution. The. District currently has a legal obligation to honor the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Bennett Development. They are working through their feasibility study. The jurisdiction of the school district does not include questions of environmental impact, density, roads, traffic or compliance with the Growth Management Act. Those functions belong to the City of Renton. It is my understanding representatives of the Renton Hill Community. Association are in regular contact with city officials regarding this property. The Renton School District provides educational services to • 12,500 students. As stewards of precious tax' dollars, it is our responsibility plan and manage resources to the highest benefit for the, children weare serving.

We have found it to be a very quiet community where people take walks in the street and enjoy Philip Arnold Park We live just one block from the park and we can hear the children playing. It is a well-used park especially in the spring and fall. There is a wooded area east of the park where a small herd of deer lives that makes occasional forays into the surrounding gardens. Renton Hill is historic;it is built on top of old coalmines. These mines have been long abandoned,but the original miners and their families who lived and worked here set the nature of the community. More recently a score or more large homes have been built on the hill and integrated gradually into the neighborhood. These additions have begun to put a strain on the traffic through the community. I understand that the Renton School Board has sold the woods to the east of Philip Arnold Park to developers—Bennett Homes. The planned development of about 60 new homes on the property across from Philip Arnold Park causes me great concern in several areas. Street Traffic—Access to Renton Hill is limited to two streets,which pass over the 405 freeway. The hill drops sharply to the freeway and the Cedar River. This cuts off access from the north and northeast. Grant Ave S,which appears on maps to give access from the south,is barricaded and does not go through. There is a road that runs by the electrical substation,which gives access to Philip Arnold Park,but it is also barricaded and only opened when snow or ice makes Renton Ave S inaccessible. Renton Ave S is the road most used to get to the top of the hill. Renton Ave S is a narrow,very steep street. Because of the street's narrowness downhill traffic must yield to uphill traffic(parking is restricted to the east side). In winter or during heavy rains the street is slick and treacherous. Large trucks serving the neighborhood have a difficult time making it up the hill and service vehicles,when they must use the west side of the street,pose a hazard. Renton Ave S is used for cross country runners and bicyclists for stamina training because of its steepness. I am concerned that 60 additional families using Renton Ave S and S 7t Street will cause a dangerous hazard because of the increased traffic.especially during the winter. Erosion—The hillside above the Cedar River is very steep and has trees. The trees on the hillside and on top of the hill will be removed,I suppose,to build the houses. I am concerned that the runoff from the • new houses will erode the bank as well as run down S 7th street,causing more problems for the neighborhood. Habitat—The 60 homes development will eliminate ten acres of wooded land. The animals now living in the woods on the top of the hill will loose their habitat. Mountain bike riders will find that another place to enjoy is gone. The woods and the park complement each other. I feel that the number of new houses planned by Bennett Homes is too large. I would rather see the woods used for other purposes that would enhance the neighborhood rather than reduce the quality of life. Perhaps the woods could be kept as is and used as a bird and animal sanctuary where ecological and environmental studies could be carried out. • —2— February 17,2000 I would like to see the City of Renton and the Renton School Board take an interest in this matter. Working together with the members of the neighborhood we could come up with an innovative program that would benefit the School District,the City,and the neighborhood.

The developer is planning a little over 56 homes in this.tract. These homes, added to the existing homes on Renton Hill, will put an unusual burden of traffic on Renton Avenue South. Renton Ave. So varies in width from 25' - 11" to 26' - 2" , wide and has 210 homes that access this street only. I am sure that this width is under-designed for the proposed traffic loading. (Which would be 2.5 vehicle trips per day times the number homes serving directly onto Renton Ave (210), or 665 daily trips for residences only. This figure does not include the Park). Given this many car-trips per residence per day, plus the seasonal sports- related traffic to Philip Arnold Park for baseball, little league football practice, and softball scheduled for this park, Renton Avenue will become difficult for existing residents to traverse. At the present time there is parking allowed on only one side of the street, but the street is not wide enough for double passing on the remaining pavement: Thus, the signs at the top that say "Yield To Uphill Traffic." • My wife and I are asking your help in questioning the viability of this project when it is submitted to the City for review. Based on this data, I hope you agree with us in making Renton Avenue south safe for our children to cross without dodging more cars. There are no street intersections between South 3rd and South 7th, thus pedestrians may feel free to cross at any point. With parking allowed on only "one side, visitors to the west side must cross to the east. When Renton Avenue is slow, people tend to go down Cedar Avenue which has parking on both sides. It should be noted that Cedar Ave South varies in width from 26' - 10".to 27 feet wide. This does not allow for two way traffic except at points where there are no vehicles parked. The dimensions for both of these'streets are well below the City's Code for collector street widths, which are a minimum of 34 feet. Thus, adding 56 homes and the related 140 additional vehicles per day is not . in the best interests of the existing residents on Renton Hill. The developer does not wish to widen Renton Avenue to the legal width for a collector street. We wish to express our concerns to you at this time and propose that the land in question be • acquired by the City for Parks use - as a wildlife / natural conservation study area and not be developed. Thank you for your assistance. 2/`''ens ill Colli ns s 420 Cedar Ave So . Renton 98055 • .

(Renton's oldest neighborhood) My wife and two kids are proud sixteen year City of Renton residents and have supported and enjoyed many City of Renton activites. We are extremely concerned about the 56 homes that are perposed to be jarred onto the 10 acres of the project. This land currently provides a home to many bird species such as the endangered red tailed hawks, deer coyotes rabbits and other local species. This untouched land should remain, in it's natural preseved state. The city park's system should annex this public land. If the land is to be developed no more than one house per acer should be allowed and the land re-zoned one house per acre. The reason being the very unsafe proposed 6 way intersection at the interence to the project. The unsafe intersection at 7th & Renton Ave South (a four way intersection with a three way stop on a steep hill.) The one way access to the Renton hills existing 208 faimlies on Renton Ave South would be over burden and unsafe. Fire police and ambulance axcess would be restricted due to the increased traffic from the new project. This 56 home project should be rejected by the city and other land uses should be considered. My family will move to a new city after 16 happy years in Renton if this project is allowed to proceed as our trust in city officals,traffic safety& quality of life would be ruined in our Renton hill neighorhood. This . proposed project will cause a great financial loss for both us and our neighbors.

I feel that since this land was owned by the Renton School District that the public should have been notified that it was going to be sold, especially the people on Renton Hill, since we will be affected the most. I feel that there was no consideration given to the community at all. I think with a shortage of natural land and wildlife areas in our city that it was a very poor choice to sell this land to Bennett Homes for home development. Since this land is right across the street from Phillip Arnold Park, it would be an ideal location for a nature park. It could be used for field trips for our schools and also a refuge for deer, birds, and other animals that need this acreage to survive. It also could be left in a controlled natural state where our native trees, shrubs, and vegetation be preserved and used for a learning aid in our schools. With the future development and restoration of the downtown area of Renton going on, I think that a nature park on Renton Hill would be an asset to the city and would fit in perfectly with the growing process.

It is my understanding that the property has been purchased by Bennett Homes with the intent of putting 60 homes on that 10 acres. I am very concerned that the addition of 60 homes to the Renton Hill area will cause numerous problems such as: 1) damage to the existing streets by construction trucks; 2) traffic increase on and off the hill and after the construction is finished, the additional traffic of delivery trucks, garbage trucks, etc. ; 3) the problem of safety, such as limited vision at the top of Renton Avenue. It would be my suggestion that an alternative usage be proposed for this 10 acres. I would like to see that area be used for wild life purposes. Renton Hill already has a problem with the deer population (too many, eating too much)_ . Perhaps if this area were left undeveloped the deer in our yards would not be such a problem. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, r . Patricia A. Burkhalter 901 Jones Ave. So.

This would mean at least 120 more cars on the hill. The traffic on this hill is now more than we should have to put up with. Nine times out of ten when I drive down my street I have to pull over at least once to allow uphill traffic through. When there are garbage trucks, delivery trucks etc. on the street it becomes ridiculous. The negative impact on traffic, safety and emergency vehicle access would be a detriment to life in this neighborhood. I would hope that the Renton School District and the • City of Renton could come up with an alternate plan that would benefit both and at the same time preserve our hill. Sincerely Diane B. Hyatt 720 Cedar Ave. So. Renton, Wash. 98055 ( 425) 228-1725 ' February 19, 2000 CITY OF RENTON FEB 2 3 2000 To: Renton CityCouncil RECEIVED CRY CLERK'S OFFICE City of Renton 1055 South Grady Way Renton,WA 98055 Subject: Bennett Homes Project Across From Philip Arnold Park We are writing with concern over the proposed Bennett Homes project across from Philip Arnold Park. As 12-year residents of Renton Hill;we are very opposed to the project, especially the number of homes and the proposed flow of traffic through Renton Hill. Living on Renton Avenue S. we are very concerned about the potential increased traffic from the 70 homes. As a minimum 560 more cars could pass by our home on Renton Ave. S. each day. Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. are essentially one-lane roads due to the street parking allowed and the yielding to uphill traffic. Traffic on 7th St. and Renton Ave. S. is of great concern to us due to the lack of stop signs at the cross streets on 7th, lack of cross walks,the uphill yielding on Renton Ave. and the poor visibility approaching the steep grades. Safety is a huge concern to those living here. We know of one fatality on Renton Ave. due to the telephone poles being so close to the street. Increased traffic will increase the safety risk to all residents in this neighborhood. As for the school children on he hill, they are forced to walk up the hill to catch the school bus at Philip Arnold Park. More traffic could endanger the lives of these children. If this project is approved,the traffic caused by construction vehicles will also increase the risk to our families by limiting the emergency access to current residents, which is unacceptable. We would much rather see this property remain as is, or be improved.by the City of Renton Parks Department. If it must be developed,then the flow of traffic must be • diverted to Puget Drive rather than Renton Hill. In addition, it is essential to our neighborhood that the road remained closed to thru traffic from Puget Drive. We urge you to defeat the development of this land as it is currently proposed.

From one acre wetlands to entire eco-systems, the places appreciated for their beauty and recreational benefits are at risk. This puts tremendous pressure on once common wildlife, from deer to a host of migratory birds. The Bennett Home development project near Philip Arnold Park is one such site. Nearly every day a deer,raccoon, opossum, and the occasional coyote, make an appearance in some Renton Hill resident's backyard. Why-because much of their habitat has been destroyed through over development. The last refuge for this precious animals is the Bennett.Homes site. Communities nation wide are realizing the importance of these wildlife habitats and green belts and are taking steps to save fragile habitats in the path of development. Several federally funded programs are available to help cities and small residential communities save some small areas for natural wildlife. Some of these include the Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP) and the Natural Resources Conservation Foundation's Community Wildlife Habitat program. Each of these programs provides funding, resources and technical assistance to communities interested in preserving wildlife and their habitat. The City of Renton and the Renton School District could join the ranks of other progressive cities and really show they are "ahead of the curve" by taking this tremendous step. Preserving the Bennett Homes site will not only provide a much needed habitat for wildlife but will increase recreational opportunities and educational opportunities city-wide._ Additionally, over development of this site will increase traffic in a neighborhood already plagued with a lack of available parking and poor road structure. The majority of the roads and intersections are uncontrolled with no signage, no crosswalks and limited sight distance. On many of the streets, Renton Avenue for example,residential parking limits street traffic to one way due to the roads being too narrow and obstructed with parked cars and other recreational vehicles. This congestion will only increase with the development of this site. Please consider these issues when making your decision on the outcome of this issue and look beyond the short term financial gain of the City to the long range implications this could have on the surrounding community, its wildlife and the quality of like in the Renton area.

The addition of 100+ cars from another 50-60 homes in this development would create an overcapacity on Renton Avenue South to handle safely. The road is not very wide, there is. a severe crown in the center oftthe road, and as you go up or down there is a blind spot where you cannot see cars coming for a moment. Together with extra traffic during the summer months from usage of Phillip Arnold Park, would create addition- al hazards. • 2. We feel that this property should be downzoned from 'R-8 in keeping with the recent addition of River Ridge area which is a nice development. 3 . We feel that the School District should turn this property over to the City of Renton for some other use, such as a park area for hiking, or' relaxing, such as the Arboretum area in Seattle, or, kept as a green belt. 4. This property was purchased with taxpayer money, no real estate taxes were paid on it, so we feel it should revert to the City. The schools are supported by taxpayers and their needs will be met without the sale of this property. Yo very_ truly, ^ rCt.o H. Tonda o r J.'fin da�7��C� 1308 Beacon Way So.

Renton Ave. would be the only access up the hill to the new homes. Renton Avenue is.a very busy road already and is frequently blocked by different service vehicles - garbage, cable, etc. That many new houses would only add to the congestion, which also brings up safety issues. Renton Avenue is very steep in places and with cars on either side it is very difficult to see as you're driving down it. It would increase the problem with that many more automobiles using the same road. That vacant land is home to many species of birds and animals. It would be better to make it a natural preserve of some kind There is so little land that is close in that has been left untouched. Isn't it possible for the city to purchase the land and put it to better use than another subdivision that will crowd the already overcrowded access roads on this hill? Please don't issue any building permits without carefully considering the effects on the existing residents of the area. And also please consider the other possible uses for the ten acres of land. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Hauling/Transportation Routes: Primary access routes will likely be (reverse if coming to site): Beacon Way to Renton or Cedar Avenues, then west across 405 to Houser Way or Main Avenue. North or eastbound traffic will likely continue northerly on Houser Way to I405 or SR169. South or westbound traffic will continue south on Main Avenue/Grady Way to 1405, SR515, or SR167. Mitigation Measures: Dust, mud and other soil-related impacts will be addressed through a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control plan to be approved and monitored by the City. The Erosion Control plan may contain features such as rock construction entrances, wheel washes, silt fences, sedimentation ponds, interceptor ditches, temporary seeding and mulching and would generally be determined by the season, weather and site/construction conditions. Properly muffled construction equipment together with compliance to the City's adopted working hours will be used to help mitigate construction noise impacts. Specialty Hours: Work will be conducted during the City's allowable working hours only. Traffic Control Plan: A plan is not anticipated due to the location Je site at the end of the street system. /ry�F M.P ON ,ve APR2820 00 B e nn e t t Development 9 Lake Bellevue Dr Suite 100-A Bellevue WA 98005 • Tel: 425-709-6559 • Fax: 425-709-6553 INA i..

Based on the onsite vegetation, soils and topography, it appears the 10.35 acre site may have been used as a borrow pit in the past; although it is currently vacant and not used. Recent ownership lies with the Renton School District and the property will be "surplussed" from them to the applicant. There are no remarkable site features other than the relative slope across the site. Although this site is indicated as potentially sensitive on the City's Sensitive Areas maps for landslides and coal mine hazards, geotechnical investigations conducted by the applicant did not corroborate the City's mapping. Many areas of steeper slopes can be found on the site that appear to have been created when onsite soil material was mined from the property. Vegetation generally consists of small diameter evergreen and deciduous trees consistent with the recent mining activities. Current plans indicate the site will be developed into 56 single family lots, a park tract, 2 landscape buffer tracts together with a stormwater management tract. Primary access to the site will be from S. 7th Street, which will include existing street realignment to improve the intersection. Lot areas range from 4,504 square feet to 8,313 square feet with the preponderance of lots in the range of 4,700 square feet to 6,000 square feet, well above the minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet required by code. The proposed density of 6.8 units per acre is midway between the density maximum of 8 units per acre and minimum of 5 units per acre. A sensitive transition between the neighboring properties is accomplished by this mid range density, a fifteen feet landscaping buffer to the homes to the north, a landscape tract and community fence facing Philip Arnold Park, and a lot layout that minimizes the lots backing up to Philip Arnold Park. B e nn e t t Development 9 Lake Bellevue Dr Suite 100-A Bellevue WA 98005 •. Tel: 425-709-6559 • Fax: 425-709-6553 The proposed internal public street will have a right-of-way width of 42 feet, which is a reduction from the required 50-foot width. This reduction is in compliance with Section 4-6- 060R.3 of the City of Renton Development Standards and is requested to allow the lot depths to range from 90 to 100 feet rather than 80 to 90 feet. If the 50 foot right-of-way were to be used it would result in a loss lots and the reduction and/or elimination of the proposed landscape tracts and vegetative buffers along the north and east edges of the site. For the last nine months the proposed development has had several key events that have molded the project into its current design. These key events were very instrumental in the way the layout, access, traffic, landscaping, and total design is being submitted. Here is a brief summary of the events that transformed this application: 1st Preliminary Application Meeting(Sept. 2, 1999) A few key concerns were discussed at this meeting. The use of the Cedar River Pipeline and the Seattle Public Utilities approval was unknown. Traffic was a major concern and the need for a traffic study was discovered. Density was also a concern for the City. This meeting allowed Bennett Development the ability to design and engineer with the City's concerns in mind. See Exhibit "A" Voluntary Meeting with Renton Hill Residents (Nov. 4, 1999) Bennett Development invited the residents of Renton Hill to a community meeting at the Renton Community Center. Approximately 150 people were in attendance. From the meeting the neighbors addressed crime, traffic, access, and density. The majority of residents expressed opposition of development on the parcel. With this meeting Bennett Development was able to incorporate residents' concerns and to define what was needed for a traffic study. See Exhibit ''B» Meeting with Seattle Public Utilities (Nov. 10, 1999) The meeting with Seattle Public Utilities established that they have a neutral stance on development of the parcel. S.P.U. stated that use of their Pipeline which runs parallel to the parcel could not be granted to private individuals. The use in the Pipeline can only be requested by and permitted to the City of Renton. The current easement the City of Renton has with S.P.U. regarding the Pipeline can encompass the rights that are needed for the proposed project. See Exhibit "C" & "D" 2' Preliminary Application Meeting (Jan. 6, 2000) Concerns from the 1st Pre App were addressed. Information was provided to the City of Renton on the Neighborhood Meeting and the Seattle Public Utilities requirements. See Exhibit "E" River Ridge Homeowners Meeting (Jan. 25, 2000) Bennett Development met with a group of River Ridge homeowners whose property line is shared with the proposed project to present and discuss design. From the meeting, Bennett Development incorporated a design concept to include a buffer between the River Ridge neighbors and the proposed project. The intersection on S. 7th Court was modified for a greater visual transition between River Ridge and the proposed project. Traffic Study Results (Jan. 27, 2000) The traffic study prepared by Transportation Planning & Engineering, Inc. identified that the project will not cause a significant adverse affect on the neighborhood. Conceptual Plan mailed out to Neighborhood Leaders (Apr. 3, 2000) A new conceptual plan was mailed out to neighborhood leaders incorporating nine months of city and neighborhood input. The mailing gave neighborhood leaders a chance to, see the conceptual plan that will be submitted for application and to give any last minute input. See Exhibit "F" After nine months of input and feedback from City staff, neighbors, and engineers, we believe that the proposed plan achieves the best use and is sensitive to the surrounding homes and park. Please accept this application and we look forward to your comments. I ... 4I,t Ve 1Ai.

A fire hydrant with 1000 GPM fire flow is required within 300 feet of all new single-family structures. If the building square footage exceeds 3600 square feet in area, the minimum fire flow increases to 1500 GPM and requires two hydrants within 300 feet of the structure. 2. A fire mitigation fee of$488.00 is required for all new single-family structures. 3. Fire Department access roadways require a minimum 20 Foot paved roadway with an approved fire department turnaround. See attached diagram. The gate on Beacon Way SE should be removed or relocated to accommodate the increased traffic and Fire.Department access. 4. All building addresses shall be visible from the public street Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. CITY OF RENTON PLANNING/BUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT . MEMORANDUM DATE: SEPTEMBER 1, 1999 TO: LAUREEN NICOLAY FROM: NEIL WATTS SUBJECT: • ARNOLD PRELIMINARY PLAT PREAPPLICATION REVIEW • I have reviewed the project submittal for the above listed project, and have the following comments at this time: ACCESS • • Beacon Way S adjacent to this parcel is not a City right-of-way available for public use. This is a Seattle Water Pipeline Right-of-Way, owned and controlled by the City of Seattle. Any use of Beacon Way S will require written approval from the City of Seattle. • We have concerns with use of Beacon Av S for this subdivision. What assurances will be provided that any approval of use by Seattle will not be revoked in the future? Where will secondary/emergency access be from? Who will be responsible for maintenance of the street • improvements in Beacon Av S? • We also have concerns with the additional traffic on Renton hill through existing residential streets. A traffic study will be required for this project, which will need to address this concern. We recommend examining the option of routing the project access to the south, if possible, to Puget Dr S. • The excessive use of private streets along the easterly portion of the plat will not be supported • by staff. This large of parcel can be platted in such a manner as to provide direct access to all • the new lots directly from a public street, without creating a significant number of landlocked parcels dependent on access from narrower private streets. SEWER • There is an existing 8" sewer main in S 7`h Ct adjacent to the north side of the proposed plat. The new parcel can be served by extending an 8" sewer main from this existing main though the proposed subdivision. SEPTEMBER 1, 1999 PAGE 2 • Separate side sewers will be required for each parcel (no dual side sewers). The minimum slope for the side sewers shall be 2%. • Sewer System Development Charges of$585 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be .paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary short plat. WATER • There is an existing 6" water main in Jones Av S, an 8" water main in S 7`1' Ct, and a 8" water main stub to the north boundary of this parcel. The site is located in the 490 foot pressure zone. Static water pressure will range from about 40psi at elevation 395 feet to 55 psi at.elevation 360 feet. • The following water main improvements will be required for this project: 1. Installation of an 8" water in Beacon Av S within the City of Seattle Water Pipeline right- of-way along the entire frontage of the plat. This will require a permit from Seattle Public Utilities. 2. Installation of 8" water mains in the interior streets of the plat to serve the domestic water meters and fire hydrants. 3. Connection to the existing 8" stub along the north property line (see plan W-2038). 4. Connection to the existing 6" water main in Jones Av S (see plan W-1156). • Fire hydrants will be required to current City standards within 300 feet of all proposed building sites for the new parcels. • Water System Development Charges of$850 per new single family parcel will be required for • this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary short plat. DRAINAGE . • A conceptual drainage plan and drainage report shall be submitted with the preliminary plat application for this project. The conceptual drainage plan is to include detention and water quality treatment for the fully built out plat, including future houses, driveways and roadway improvements. The runoff from the new houses must be tightlined into the storm drainage system constructed for the preliminary plat. The drainage plan is to be designed per the King County Surface Water Manual. • Surface Water System Development Charges of $385 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. . • SEPTEMBER 1, 1999 PAGE 3 • EROSION CONTROL MEASURES • Due to the possible erosion and sedimentation problems from construction activities on the site, we will recommend the following conditions for this preliminary plat (for both preliminary plat development and future building permits for the individual lots): 5. The applicant shall install a silt fence along the downslope perimeter of the area that is to be disturbed. The silt fence shall be in place before clearing and grading is initiated, and shall be constructed in conformance with the specifications presented in Section D.4.3.1 of the King County Surface Water Design Manual, Appendix D. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 6. Shallow drainage swales shall be constructed to intercept surface water flow and route the flow away from the construction area to a stabilized discharge point. Vegetation growth shall be established in the ditch by seeding or placing sod. Depending on site grades, it may be necessary to line the ditch with rock to protect the ditch from erosion and to reduce flow rates. The design and construction or drainage swales shall conform to the specifications presented in Section 4.4.1 of the SWDM. Temporary pipe systems can also be used to convey stormwater across the site. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. • 7. The project contractor shall perform daily review and maintenance of all erosion and sedimentation control measures at the site during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 8. Weekly reports on the status and condition of the erosion control plan with any recommendations of change or revision to maintenance schedules or installation shall be submitted by the project Engineer or record to the public works inspector for the preliminary short plat construction. Certification of the installation, maintenance and proper removal of the erosion control facilities shall be required prior to recording of the short plat. . . STREET IMPROVEMENTS • • Beacon Av S must be improved to full 32 foot pavement width, with curbs, gutters, sidewalk and street lighting. This work will require approval from the City of Seattle. (see Access comments). . • The new street interior to the short plat must be developed to City standards, including new pavement, curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street lighting. • All new electrical, phone and cable services to the short plat must be undergrounded. Construction of these franchise utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton public works inspector prior to recording of the plat. SEPTEMBER 1, 1999 PAGE 4 • • Traffic mitigation fees of$75 per net new average daily trip ($716.25 per lot) will be required prior to recording of the plat. Fire mitigation and Parks mitigation fees must also be paid prior to recording of the plat. GENERAL • • All required utility, drainage and street improvements will require separate plan submittals prepared according to City of Renton drafting standards by a registered Civil Engineer. The construction permit application must include a itemized cost estimate for these improvements. The fee for review and inspection of these improvements is 5% of the first $100,000 of the estimated construction costs; 4% of anything over $100,00 but less than $200,000, and 3% of anything over $200,000. Half of this fee must be paid upon application for construction permits (preliminary plat improvements), and the remainder when the construction permit is issued. There may be additional fees for water service related expenses. i CITY OF RENTON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, NEIGHBORHOODS,AND STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMORANDUM DATE: August 30, 1999 TO: Laureen Nicolay FROM: Owen Denniso .. SUBJECT: Arnold Preliminary Plat-69 Lots Preapplication(#99-75) (800 Block of Beacon Way SE-NE of Philip Arnold Park) The site is designated Residential Single Family. (RS)in the Comprehensive Plan, and zoned R-8. The proposal appears to be near or above the upper end of the permitted density range for RS parcels over one-half.acre. Even with modifications to reduce the density to 8 units per net acre, the proposed plat would be more dense than the surrounding neighborhoods. The following Residential Single Family designation policies address new plats proposed at higher densities than surrounding areas. Policy LU-40. New plats developed at higher densities within existing neighborhoods should be designed to incorporate street locations, lot configurations, and building envelopes which address privacy and quality of life for existing residents. Policy LU-40.1. New plats proposed at higher densities than adjacent neighborhood developments may be modified within the allowed density range to reduce conflicts between old and new development patterns. However, strict adherence to older standards is not required. Policy LU-40.2. Site features such as distinctive stands of trees and natural slopes should be retained to enhance neighborhood character and preserve property values .where possible. Retention of unique site features should be balanced with the objective of investing in neighborhoods within the overall context of the Vision Statement of this Comprehensive Plan. The Falcon Ridge development to the east includes on-site open space to buffer adjacent uses. Residential uses to the west are buffered .by Philip Arnold Park. The development to the north, however, is less than half as dense as the proposed plat. Further, lots in this plat appear to be somewhat lower than on the proposed site. The difference in elevation may emphasize the density differential between the developments. With submittal, the proponents should be prepared to show how the proposed plat is sensitive to potential privacy and quality of life concerns of the adjacent property owners to the north. . \\TS_SERVER\SYS2:\COMMON\-H:\EconomicDevelopment\STRATPLN\PLANNING\PREAPP\RS\Amo1dPP.doc\od' - _ F:=1 rtar7. ; I(1111111 - BENNETT.

General: The following comments are based on the pre-application submittals made ,to the City of Renton by the applicant and the Codes in effect on the date of review. The applicant is cautioned that review comments may need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. Also, information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision-makers (e.g., Environmental Review Committee, Hearing Examiner, and City Council). The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the City of Renton Development Regulations. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for $50.00, plus tax, from.the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall. Land Use Permits Required: The proposal will require a preliminary plat approval • and environmental review and, as proposed, an administrative approval of a 42-foot reduced public street right of way. A complete Preliminary Plat and Environmental Review application package is attached. In order to request approval of a reduced right of way, you will also need to include this request in your project narrative, along with a statement justifying the request. Total processing time will be approximately 18 weeks, assuming no appeals are filed. Uses and.Density: The subject site is zoned R-8, Residential 8-Units Per Acre. • Since the existing parcel is greater than one half acre in size, this zone permits single family residential development at densities at between 5 and 8 dwelling units per net acre. The overall property size is indicated to be approximately 10 acres in the preapplication inTormation. If the site were found to contain sensitive area (i.e. slopes greater than 40%), these areas would have to be deducted from the total square footage along with the right of way area for the purposes of determining net density. The applicant has calculated the project density at 6.9 units per acre, however, this analysis does not seem to consider the required deduction of dedicated pubic street right of way. The applicant should determine the square footage of land to dedicated for public streets and recalculate total allowable density based upon a starting acreage of less than 10 acres. As proposed, the project will likely result in a density of more than 8 units per acre Page 1 of 4 Access: RMC Section 4-7-170B states: "Each lot must have access to a public street or road. Access may be by private access easement street per the requirements of the street standards". The applicant will need to obtain approval of the City of Seattle to use their water pipeline right of way for access. This written approval must be provided to the City prior to the time of formal preliminary plat application. This will allow the City time to review the document and determine whether a variance is needed for the project. Assuming the City of Seattle grants approval to use the "Beacon Way SE" right of way, each lot in the proposed plat will front on and have direct access from either "Beacon Way SE" or a private 26-foot access easement. If this written City of Seattle approval for access is in a format acceptable to the City Public Works Plan Review Division and City Attorney, then no formal variance from the subdivision regulations will be required as the City will consider this the same as a "public street or road". Lots fronting on "Beacon Way SE" will also have access via a proposed 20-foot alley to the rear of each of these lots. The new internal public street proposed by the applicant is only 42 feet in width. The City's street standards permit the Development Services Division to allow construction of a 42-foot wide public street (in lieu of the standard 50-foot wide residential access street) when "the extra area from the reduction is used for the creation of an additional lot(s) which could not be platted without the reduction OR when platting with the required right of way results in the creation of lots with less than 100 feet in depth". The conceptual plan indicates various Jot depths ranging from approximately 80 to 90 feet in depth so it is reasonable to assume that • additional right of way would likely reduce the depths even further. The applicant does not provide a comparative analysis of the number of lots possible between the 50-foot and 42-foot streets. The applicant should note this request and basis for it in his project narrative at the time of formal preliminary plat application. Access to-approximately 20 of the lots will be via private access easement as permitted by Section 4-6-060J states that: "private streets are allowed for access to .• six'(6) or less lots, with no more than four(4) of the lots not abutting a public right-of- way.:Private streets will only be permitted if the proposed private street is not anticipated by the Department to be necessary for existing or future traffic and/or pedestrian circulation through the subdivision or to serve adjacent property. Such private streets shall consist of a minimum of a twenty six-foot (26') easement with a twenty-foot (20') pavement width. The private street shall provide a turnaround meeting the minimum requirements of this Chapter. NO sidewalks are required for private streets, however, drainage improvements per City Code are required, as well as an approved pavement thickness (minimum of four inches (4") asphalt over six inches (6") crushed rock). The maximum grade for the private street shall not exceed • fifteen percent (15%), except for within approved hillside subdivision?. The applicant's proposal seems to generally comply with these requirements with the exception.of the private access easement serving Lots 51 through 55. This can be modified in order to comply by revising Lot 55 to be a pipestem lot with frontage on the public street. Once done, only 4 of the lots in this area will "not abut" a public street. Page of 4 • • • • Lot Size:. The minimum lot size permitted by the zone is 4,500 square feet. The • applicant states that the proposing lot sizes are all 4,500 or greater. However, the pipestem area (area 20 feet or less in width) may not be counted toward the minimum lot area of any lot. For pipestem lots, the applicant should verity that the square footages listed do not include the pipestem portions. Lot Width—General: The minimum lot width in this zone is 50 feet (60 feet for • corner lots). The lots have irregular widths that must be averaged to determine compliance with the 50-foot minimum lot width standard. For all irregularly shaped lots, the applicant should calculate the lot widths pursuant to Section 4-11-120L "Lot Width". The definition of lot width is as follows: "Width of a lot shall be considered to be the average distance between the side lines connecting front and rear lot lines ." In calculating compliance with the 50-foot minimum lot width, the following formula may be used: Proposed Lot Area divided by Lot Depth = Average Lot Width. Since individual lot square footages and dimensions were not provided by the applicant:I was unable to check compliance with the minimum lot width requirements. The applicant will need to verify compliance for the irregularly shaped lots (#s 19, 21, 29, 30, 50, 56, 57, 60, 61, 62, 64, 68, and 69).prior to formal • submittal. Lot Width—at Street: RMC Section 4-7-170D, City Subdivision Regulations, states: "Widths between the side lot lines at their foremost points (i.e. the points where the side lot lines intersect the with the street right of way line) shall not be less than 80% of the required lot width except in the cases of(1) pipestem lots, which shall have a • minimum width of twenty feet (20') and (2) lot on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac shall be a minimum of 35' for non-pipestem lots." In this case, the required lot width for this zone is 50 feet. Therefore, the typical minimum lot width for the portion fronting on.a street cannot be less.than 40 feet.(80% of 50 feet). Lots 22, 50, 55, 56, 57, 68, 69 have less than 40 feet in width at their street frontage. These are all considered to be "pipestem" lots even though some of them are located on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac. The applicant should keep in mind that the portions of the "pipestem" lots which are narrower than 80% of the zone's minimum lot width (40 feet or less in this case) may not be counted toward the minimum lot area of those lots and that adjacent pipestem lots (e.g. Lots 50, 55 and 56) shall have mandatory shared driveways. . The applicant may opt to increase the width of those lots on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac to 35 feet in order to avoid the shared driveway and/or lot area reduction requirements applicable to pipestem lots. Lot Depth: Minimum lot depth is 65 feet. The proposal clearly provides adequate lot depth (scaling from 80 to 90 feet) for the majority of the lots, however, prior to application, average depths of Lots 29, 61, and 62 should be verified. • • Page 3 of 4 _. Lot Configuration: RMC Section 4-7-170A, Arrangement, states: "In so far as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines . . ." The proposed plat seems to generally comply with this requirement. Setbacks: Proposed Lot#62 may be somewhat difficult to build upon given-its large front yard and shallow depth. • Proposed Tracts: The proposed drainage tract appears to comply with minimum lot width, depth and area requirements. There are two other"parcels" indicated to the south of Lot 20 and to the east of Lot 53 which do not appear to comply with zoning standards. Their proposed use is unclear from the plans. These "parcels" will need. to be revised to comply with zoning requirements or, as an alternative, be created as easements. Sensitive.Areas: Coal Mines and Slopes: The site is indicated as containing 4 or 5 old coal mine shafts and designated as a moderate hazard area on the City's mine map. The site may also contain slopes over 40%. The current City regulations prohibit vegetation/tree removal on portions of the site with slopes over 40% or in areas between 25% and 40% with landslide hazard potential. A geotechnical report, which addresses steep slopes, coal mine hazards, etc., will be required as part of the formal preliminary plat application in order to determine any building issues related to the mine hazard or slope issues. If the steeply sloping areas of the site are small in area,•th '; City has made an administrative,determination, attached, regarding the need for variance that may be relative to this project. Aquifer Protection Zone 2: The site is also located in Aquifer Protection Zone 2 (APA 2). The APA 2 designation should have no impact on the • development since the lots are to be sewered. • Mitigation and Development Related Fees: See attached fee schedule.

MUNICIPAL CODE SECTIONS: Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations (RMC Section 4-4-130C) REFERENCE: N/A SUBJECT: Regulation of Tree Cutting and Land Clearing on Slopes Exceeding 40% BACKGROUND: Section 4-4-130:C(Prohibited and Allowable Activities)restricts tree cutting or land clearing "on parcels where the predominant slope or individual slope is in excess of forty percent(40%) except enhancement activities."Enhancement activities are defined as the "removal of noxious or intrusive species,plantings of appropriate native species and/or removal of diseased or decaying trees which pose a clear and imminent treat to life or property. Enhancement activities shall not involve the use of mechanical equipment." The Code Section does not provide clear direction as to when certain minor steep slope areas are exempt from regulation. JUSTIFICATION: According to the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations, slopes 40%or greater may not be cleared,nor trees removed,unless the action is considered to be enhancement. The regulation does not exempt minor steep slopes, or man- made slopes resulting from human action, such as those slopes created as the result of road cuts. The Greenbelt Regulations(Code Section 4-3-070:C.3) define steep slope areas subject to regulation as landform features of a site between significant and identifiable changes in slope. Slope is defined as the average slope of the lot or portion thereof in percent between significant changes in slope, determined by observation on simple slopes, or more precisely by the formula: S=100IL A : . Where"I"is the contour interval in feet but not greater than'ten feet(10'); "L"is the combined length of the contour lines in scale feet;and"A"is the net area between significant changes in slope of the lot in square feet. A significant • change in slope is defined as a bench or plateau at least fifteen feet(15')in width. The same defmition should apply to slopes regulated for the purposes of determining whether a Variance is needed from the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations. • DECISION: Tree cutting and land clearing on slopes greater than 40% may be accomplished without a Variance from the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations (RMC 4-4-130:C.4)provided that slope"bench" is less than 15 feet in width, and the"drop" or change in elevation is less than 10 feet.

I am not sure how your project first came into the hands of Mario Schmidt, but Mario has handed off your project to me because it falls into the geographic area I am responsible for. I would be happy to meet with you regarding your project. In a nut shell, the following is SPU's current practice with regard to use of its right of ways and your proposed access: 1. SPU does not allow the longitudinal use of its rights of way for utilities or permanent roads. 2. The only way SPU would consider granting a longitudinal Easement for Road (or right angle crossings) is: a. If there were no other reasonable means of access (not just convenience) b. The request came from a government entity for a public road c. There were no objections from any SPU factions having responsibility for the Pipeline Even then: a. Permission would be for street and drainage only, no other utilities would be allowed. b. Any future need of SPU would be paramount to the use as a street. (SPU could close the street if needed, and all costs to restore the street would be born by the government entity having jurisdiction over it) • Dexter Horton Building, 10th Floor,710 Second Avenue,Seattle,WA 98104 Tel:(206)684-5851,TTY/TDD:(206)233-7241,Fax:(206)684-4631,Internet Address:http://www.ci.seattle.wa.us/utill An equal employment opportunity,affirmative action employer.Accommodations for people with disabilities provided upon request. 0-ccu j�.� c.

In some areas to the South of the Renton School District property, Seattle Public Utilities only has easements for the Pipeline and not ownership of the land. • The title is clouded at present time along the area adjacent to the Renton School District property. Seattle Public Utilities is unclear who owns the property dividing the Renton School District property and Phillip Arnold Park. Nonetheless, Seattle Public Utilities would still retain access rights over the property. • There is no evidence that past owner of the school site, Coking Coal Company ever transferred title to Seattle Public Utilities. • Seattle Public Utilities is aware that Falcon Ridge subdivision has emergency fire access off of the Pipeline. A temporary permit for Road Purposes was granted to the City of Renton. • Seattle Public Utilities is aware that the Pipeline is being used for daytime park and school bus access from the South end. A temporary permit for Road Purposes was granted to the City of Renton. • B e nn ett . Development 9 Lake Bellevue Dr Suite 100-A Bellevue WA 98005 • Tel: 425-709-6559 • Fax: 425-709-6553 • Use of Roadway • Seattle Public Utilities takes a neutral stance with purposed development on the Renton School District property. • Seattle Public Utilities will consider R-O-W easements over the Pipeline if there is no other reasonable access. • A request for an easement must be made by the City of Renton. • If a public road were granted along Beacon Way South,the City of Renton would have to enter into an agreement with Seattle Public Utilities on road repair and maintenance. • If granted a R-O-W easement, it would be for street and drainage only, no other utilities would be allowed. Utility Crossings • Seattle Public Utilities would issue Revocable Permits for right-angle crossings of its rights of way for utility purposes, but only to an established utility or government entity. A permit would be issued along with construction restraints and specifications. • See letter from Bob Gambill dated November 11, 1999 regarding Utility Crossing Permit requirements.

FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU MEMORANDUM DATE: December 13, 1999 TO: Elizabeth Higgins, Planner FROM: Jim Gray, Assistant Fire Marshal SUBJECT: Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat, 8 0 Block Beacon Way SE Fire Department Comments: 1. A fire hydrant with 1000.GPM fire flow is required within 300 feet of all new single-family structures. If the building square footage exceeds 3600 square feet in area, the minimum fire flow increases to 1500 GPM and requires two hydrants within 300 feet of the structure. 2. A fire mitigation fee of$488.00 is required for all new single-family structures. 3. Fire Department access roadways require a minimum 20 Foot paved roadway with an approved fire department turnaround. See attached diagram. The gate on Beacon Way SE should be removed or relocated to accommodate the increased traffic and Fire Department access. 4. Provide a secondary access from the east dead end cul-de-sac to Beacon Way SE. This can be an emergency access only and can be gated or chained. 5. All building addresses shall be visible from the public street Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. CITY OF RENTON MEMORANDUM DATE: December 29, 1999 TO: Elizabeth Higgens FROM: Arneta Henninger X7298 (,)7\() SUBJECT: ARNOLD PLAT PREAPPLICATION 2 S 7TH CT AND BEACON WAY SE I have reviewed the preapplication submittal for this 60 lot plat located in Section 20, Twp. 23N Rng. 5E, and have the following comments at this time: ACCESS • Beacon Way S adjacent to this parcel is not a City right-of-way available for public use. This is a Seattle Water Pipeline Right-of-Way, owned and controlled by the City of Seattle. Any use of Beacon Way S will require written approval from the City of Seattle. Per the copy of the letter from SPU dated October 28, 1999, SPU does not allow the use of its rights of way for permanent roads. • We also have concerns with the additional traffic on Renton hill through existing residential streets. A traffic study will be required for this project, which will need to address this concern. SANITARY SEWER • This site is located in the Aquifer Protection Zone 2. • There is an existing 8" sewer main in S 7`h Ct adjacent to the north side of the proposed plat. The new parcel can be served by extending an 8" sewer main from this existing main though the proposed subdivision. There is also an existing 8"sanitary sewer main in SE 8th Dr. • Separate side sewers will be required for each parcel (no dual side sewers). The minimum slope for the side sewers shall be 2%. • Sewer System Development Charges of$585 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. WATER • This site is located in the Aquifer Protection Zone 2. DECEMBER 13, 1999 PAGE 2 • There is an existing 6" water main in Jones Av S, an 8" water main in S 7th Ct, and a 8" water main stub to the north boundary of this parcel. The site is located in the 490 foot pressure zone. Static water pressure will range from about 40 psi at elevation 395 feet to 55 psi at elevation 360 feet. • The following water main improvements will be required for this project: 1. The water main must be a looped system with two separate feeds. 2. Installation of 8" water mains in the interior streets of the plat to serve the domestic water meters and fire hydrants. 3. Connection to the existing 8" stub along the north property line (see plan W-2038). 4. Connection to the existing 6" water main in Jones Av S (see plan W-1156). • Any new construction must have a fire hydrant capable of delivering a minimum of 1,000 GPM fire and shall be located within 300 feet of the structure. This distance is measured along a travel route. Additional fire hydrants will be required as a part of this project to meet this criteria. • Water System Development Charges of$850 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. DRAINAGE • A conceptual drainage plan and drainage report shall be submitted with the preliminary plat application for this project. The conceptual drainage plan is-to include detention and water quality treatment for the fully built out plat, including future houses, driveways and roadway improvements. The runoff from the new houses must be tightlined into the storm drainage system constructed for the preliminary plat. The drainage plan is to be designed per the King County Surface Water Manual. • Surface Water System Development Charges of $385 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. EROSION CONTROL MEASURES • Due to the possible erosion and sedimentation problems from construction activities on the site, we will recommend the following conditions for this preliminary plat (for both preliminary plat development and future building permits for the individual lots): 1. The applicant shall install a silt fence along the downslope perimeter of the area that is to be disturbed. The silt fence shall be in place before clearing and grading is initiated, and shall be constructed in conformance with. the specifications presented in Section D.4.3.1 of the King County Surface Water Design Manual, Appendix D. This - will. -be required:during_the construction of.both.off-site and on-site improvements as - -well As building construction.: _ _ DECEMBER 13, 1999 PAGE 3 2. Shallow drainage swales shall be constructed to intercept surface water flow and route the'flow away from the construction area to a stabilized discharge point. Vegetation growth shall be established in the ditch by seeding or placing sod. Depending on site grades, it may be necessary to line the ditch with rock to protect the ditch from erosion and to reduce flow rates. The design and construction of drainage swales shall conform to the specifications presented in Section 4.4.1 of the SWDM. Temporary pipe systems can also be used to convey stormwater across the site. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 3. The project contractor shall perform daily review and maintenance of all erosion and sedimentation control measures at the site during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 4. Weekly reports on the status and condition of the erosion control plan with any recommendations of change or revision to maintenance schedules or installation shall be submitted by the project Engineer of record to the public works inspector for the preliminary plat construction. Certification of the installation, maintenance and proper removal of the erosion control facilities shall be required prior to recording of the plat. STREET IMPROVEMENTS • Per the copy of the letter from SPU dated October 28, 1999, SPU does not allow the use of its rights of way for permanent roads. • The new street interior to the plat must be developed to City standards which are full 32 foot pavement width, with curbs, gutters, 5' sidewalks and street lighting. • All new electrical, phone and cable services to the plat must be undergrounded. Construction of these franchise utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton public works inspector prior to recording of the plat. • Traffic mitigation fees of$75 per net new average daily trip ($716.25 per lot) will be required prior to recording of the plat. Fire mitigation and Parks mitigation fees must also be paid prior to recording of the plat. GENERAL • All required utility, drainage and street improvements will require separate plan submittals prepared according.to City of Renton drafting standards by a registered Civil Engineer. The construction permit application must include a itemized cost estimate for these improvements. The fee for review and inspection of these improvements is 5% of the first $100,000 of the estimated construction costs; 4% of anything over $100,00 but less than $200,000, and 3% of anything over $200,000. Half of this fee must be paid upon application for construction permits (preliminary plat improvements), and the remainder when the construction permit is issued. There may be additional fees for water service related expenses. cc: , Neil Watts = • • EC $: Y • . _ DEC 6 1999 ECCNowc DEVE_;)-,w:,:nr' 9 NE:CHE!:RH;i"I-I< AND STRATEGIC PLANNING . , MEMORANDUM .

The following comments on development and permitting issues are based on the preapplication submittals made to the City of Renton by the project proponent and on the City of Renton Codes in effect on the date of the review. The project proponent is cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision makers (Hearing Examiner, Zoning Administrator, Board of Adjustment, Board of Public Works, and City Council). Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the project proponent. The project proponent is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code and the City of Renton Development Regulations. The Renton Municipal Code is available at the City Clerk's office and the Renton Public Library. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for $50.00, plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of Renton City Hall. Project Proposal: The 10.36 acre property, located in the southeast portion of the City of Renton adjacent to Philip Arnold Park, is owned by the Renton School District (tax parcel no. 202305 9110). The property lies southeast of the intersection of SE 7th Street, Jones Ave S, SE 7th Court, and Beacon Way SE. Our understanding is that the project proponent has an option to purchase the property. The proposed project would subdivide the property, by means of the Preliminary Plat process, into 60 lots suitable for detached, single family houses • Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 2 • and two tracts for on-site stormwater facilities. Primary access would be from SE 7th Court, a public street that terminates in a cul-de-sac. A secondary access; for emergency use only, would be from the Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) easement (Beacon Way SE) that borders the property on the south. The first preapplication conference was held on September 2, 1999. On November 4, 1999, the project proponent and their consultants met with community members to discuss the project. The project site plan was subsequently revised. Land Use.Permits, Variances, and Modifications Required: For subdivision of land into ten (10) or more lots, RMC 4-7-080 "Subdivision" guidelines apply. The proposed project will require Preliminary Plat and SEPA approval as the first stage followed by Final Plat approval (see Final Plat Approval section below), which requires a separate application. Preliminary Plat proposals are initially reviewed by the Planning/Building/Public Works Department, then considered by the Environmental Review Committee. Following issuance of an Environmental Threshold Determination, the plat request is heard by the Hearing Examiner at a public meeting. The decision and recommendations by the Hearing Examiner"are forwarded to the City Council for consideration. The City Council adopts its own findings, conclusions, and recommendations and either approves or disapproves of the proposed plat. Application fees are $2000 for the Preliminary Plat application and $200 (1/2 of the $400 fee if the improvements are less than $100,000) or$500 (1/2 of the $1,000 fee if the improvements are more than $100,000) for Environmental (SEPA) Review. Processing time for Preliminary Plat is approximately 16 weeks, if no appeals are filed. A complete Preliminary Plat application package is included.herewith. Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Regulations will apply and require submittal of a surveyed tree inventory and Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Plan. If vegetation will be removed from slopes 40% or greater for purposes of grading for roads and/or building lots, a variance from the Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Regulations will be required. The fee for an Administrative Variance is $100. The variance must be requested at the time of application submittal. • Administrative approval of a 42-foot wide (reduced from standard 50' width) public street right-of-way will also be required, if the entry drive is proposed as shown on the conceptual plan. Include a request for this modification, with a statement of justification, in the project narrative with the application. Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 3 The proponent has suggested that the City of Renton should, or may, enter into a maintenance agreement with Seattle Public Utilities so that access to the proposed project may be secured via the Seattle Public Utilities water line easement. Renton's Director of Public Works, Mr. Gregg Zimmerman, has determined that it would not be in the city's best interest to enter into such an agreement, therefore, a secondary access will have to be secured elsewhere rather than onto the SPU right-of-way. Current Land Use: The land is currently vacant. Zoning: The property is currently zoned Residential 8 dwelling units per net acre (R-8), it is designated as single family residential on Renton's Comprehensive Plan Land Use map. Density: In the R-8 Zone, the minimum density is 5.0 dwelling units per net acre for lots greater than 0.5 acre in size. The R-8 Zone permits residential development at densities up to 8.0 dwelling units per net acre. Density calculations are based on net parcel size, excluding sensitive areas (such as wetlands and steep slope areas) and public rights-of-way. In order to calculate density, the net area will need to be provided by the project proponent. If the project is not developed to the preferred density range, "shadow platting" may be implemented to demonstrate that future subdivision and development of lots may occur. Staff suggests that the project proponent consider creating fewer, larger lots for this project due to the following: • Severe traffic congestion on local streets, • Potential inability to mitigate traffic congestion due to lack of rights-of- way, and • Comprehensive Plan Policy LU-40.1. "New plats proposed at higher densities than adjacent neighborhood developments may be modified • within the allowed density range to reduce conflicts between old and new development patterns." Minimum Lot Size: The minimum lot size in the R-8 Zone is 4500 sf It cannot be determined from the information provided by the Project proponent if this standard has been met. Minimum Lot Width and Depth: The minimum lot width in this zone is 50' for interior lots and 60' for corner lots. The minimum allowable lot depth is 65'. Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 4 Although it cannot be determined from the information provided by the project proponent if this standard will be met, it appears, from scaling the drawing, that the lots as shown on the conceptual plan do not meet the required dimensions. Setbacks: The minimum setbacks in the R-8 Zone are: front 15' for houses and 20' for garages on streets created after September 1, 1995, and 20' if fronting on existing streets rear 20' side 5' (interior lots) and 15' (corner lots) It cannot be determined from the information provided by the Project proponent if this standard will be met. Setback lines must be indicated on the site plan submitted for review. Building Height: Building heights in the R-8 Zone are limited to 2 stories and 30'. It cannot be determined from the information provided by the project proponent if this standard will be met. Building Coverage: The maximum building coverage on lots larger than 5,000 sf is 35% of the total lot area. The maximum building coverage for lots 5,000 sf or less is 50%. Building footprints are not indicated on the conceptual plan. For purpose of considering the preliminary plat, building envelopes should be shown on the plat map. Parking: Off street parking must be provided for each lot, at a minimum of 2 . spaces each. • Access: Each lot must have access to a public street. The conceptual plan indicates that access will be from SE 7th Court. Availability of this access point will need to be verified. The City of Renton will not agree to maintain the Seattle Public Utilities easement so that it can be used as a secondary/emergency access for this project. Streets: A traffic analysis, report, and recommendations will be required at the time of application. The scope of this report shall include anticipated traffic volumes and direction of travel. The traffic study must consider the seasonal use of Philip Arnold Park, which experiences significant increases in use from May to October. Stopping sight distance standards to meet 1994 American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards must be met (or Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 5 mitigated) at the intersection of SE 7th Street, Jones Ave S, SE 7th Court, and Beacon Way SE. Sensitive Areas: The site is indicated as potentially sensitive on the City's Sensitive Areas maps for landslides and coal mine hazards. Due to these potential conditions, a geotechnical report that includes information and recommendations regarding any former mining activity on or near the property will be required. A topographic plan and slope analysis will be required, as well as a conceptual grading plan. Typical Environmental Mitigation measures placed on Preliminary Plats include a Fire Mitigation Fee ($488/new lot), Parks Mitigation Fee ($530.76/new lot), and Transportation Mitigation Fee (approximately $750/new lot). There are presently no fees charged for school mitigation, unless the site is within the.Issaquah School District. Final Plat Recording: The Final Plat must conform, with only minor modifications, to the Preliminary Plat. The Final Plat cannot be recorded until the required improvements are installed and approved, and a final drawing is prepared and accepted by the City. In addition, any conditions and/or fees must be met and/or paid prior to the recording of the Final Plat as applicable. A separate application packet is required. cc: Ryan Fike Jennifer Henning 1 yy _ April 3, 2000 Ruth Larson President, Renton Hill Community Association 714 High Avenue South Renton,WA 98055 Re: Development of Renton School District Property Dear Ms. Larson: On behalf of Bennett Development and the Renton School District,we wish to take this opportunity to bring you up to speed with our development plans for the school property across from Phillip Arnold Park. We would welcome the opportunity to meet you and a small group of citizens to discuss the design aspects of the proposed development. We have enclosed two black line drawings and a colored rendering,which represent our proposed plan for the development.This plan is based on the following goals created based on Citizen and City Staff input. Goals • Support the Neighborhood goal of keeping Beacon Way South closed to through traffic. • Support the City's goal of precluding access to the new development off of Beacon Way South • Support the City's requirement for a fire truck access off of Beacon Way South to the south of the gate. • Address neighborhood concerns about the 5-way road intersection on SE 7th and Beacon Way SE. • Provide a transition between the park and the new development • Provide a transition between the homes in River Ridge with the new development. We believe that the proposed plan achieves these goals and that the Plan is sensitive to the surrounding homes and park. As you review the plan you should be able to see how it accomplishes the following results: 1. The 5-way intersection is reduced to a 4-way intersection 2. A portion of Beacon Way South is closed to traffic and creates additional public open space 3. Access to the new development is at a point most distant from the River Ridge development, allowing the maximum buffer. 4. Access is maintained to the Phillip Arnold Park parking access 5. A significant setback from the Homes in the new development to the existing homes on Renton Hill and the Intersection on SE 7th is created. Ms.Ruth Larson April 3,2000 Page 2 of 2 6. A community fence and landscaping tract along Beacon Way South is created to screen the homes from the park and provide the new neighbors with privacy. This proposed tract includes areas set aside for increased intensity of buffer landscaping to allow for large trees and a varied landscape along the property facing the park. 7. The number of homes, which back up to the park is minimized and their angle to the park allows for a more random and varied for the community as,viewed from the Park. 8. A 15 wide Landscape Buffer is provided along the property line adjacent to the homes in the River Ridge development. Our plan is to submit a formal application to the City of Renton by mid April. If you would like to set up a time to meet with us,or comment on the plans,you can reach me at 425-709-6559.

RENTON MEMORANDUM DATE: December 29, 1999 TO: Elizabeth Higgens FROM: Arneta Henninger X7298 jk* SUBJECT: ARNOLD PLAT PREAPPLICATION 2 S 7TH CT AND BEACON WAY SE I have reviewed the preapplication submittal for this 60 lot plat located in Section 20, Twp. 23N Rng. 5E, and have the following comments at this time: ACCESS • Beacon Way S adjacent to this parcel is not a City right-of-way available for public use. This is a Seattle Water Pipeline Right-of-Way, owned and controlled by the City of Seattle. Any use of Beacon Way S will require written approval from the City of Seattle. Per the copy of the letter from SPU dated October 28, 1999, SPU does not allow the use of its rights of way for permanent roads. • We also have concerns with the additional traffic on Renton hill through existing residential streets. A traffic study will be required for this project, which will need to address this concern. SANITARY SEWER • • This site is located in the Aquifer Protection Zone 2. • There is an existing 8" sewer main in S 7th Ct adjacent to the north side of the proposed plat. The new parcel can be served by extending an 8" sewer.main from this existing main'though the proposed subdivision. There is also an existing 8"sanitary sewer main in SE 8th Dr. • Separate side sewers will be required for each parcel (no dual side sewers). The minimum slope for the side sewers shall be 2%. • Sewer System Development Charges of$585 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. WATER • ' • This site is located in the Aquifer Protection Zone 2. DECEMBER 13, 1999 PAGE 2 • There is an existing 6" water main in Jones Av S, an 8" water main in S 7th Ct, and a 8" • water main stub to the north boundary of this parcel. The site is located in the 490 foot pressure zone. Static water pressure will range from about 40 psi at elevation 395 feet to 55 psi at elevation 360 feet. • • The following water main improvements will be required for this project: . 1. The water main must be a looped system with two separate feeds. 2. Installation of 8" water mains in the interior streets of the plat to serve the domestic water meters and fire hydrants. 3. Connection to the existing 8" stub along the north property line (see plan W-2038). 4. Connection to the existing 6" water main in Jones Av S (see plan W-1156). • Any new construction must have a fire hydrant capable of delivering a minimum of 1,000 GPM fire and shall be located within 300 feet of the structure. This distance is measured along a travel route. Additional fire hydrants will be required as a part of this project to meet this criteria. • Water System Development Charges of$850 per new single family parcel will be required for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. DRAINAGE • A conceptual drainage plan and drainage report shall be submitted with the preliminary plat application for this project. The conceptual drainage plan is to include detention and water quality treatment for the fully built out plat, including future houses, driveways and roadway improvements. The runoff from the new houses must be tightlined into the storm drainage system constructed for the preliminary plat. The drainage plan is to be designed per the King County Surface Water Manual. • Surface Water System Development Charges of $385 per new single family parcel will be required•for this plat. This fee must be paid prior to issuance of the construction permit for the preliminary plat. EROSION CONTROL MEASURES • Due to the possible erosion and, sedimentation problems from construction activities on the site, we will recommend the following conditions for this preliminary plat (for both preliminary plat development and future building permits for the individual lots): 1. The applicant shall install a silt fence along the downslope perimeter of the area that is to be disturbed. The silt fence shall"be in place before clearing and grading is initiated, and shall be constructed in conformance with the specifications presented in Section D.4.3.1 of the King,County Surface Water Design Manual, Appendix D. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. DECEMBER 13, 1999 PAGE 3 2. Shallow drainage swales shall be constructed to intercept surface water flow and route the flow away from the construction area to a stabilized discharge point. Vegetation growth shall be established in the ditch by seeding or placing sod. Depending on site grades, it may be necessary to line the ditch with rock to protect the ditch from erosion and to reduce flow rates. The design and construction of drainage swales shall • conform to the specifications presented in Section 4.4.1 of the SWDM. Temporary pipe systems can also be used to convey stormwater across the site. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 3. The project contractor shall perform daily review and maintenance of all erosion and sedimentation control measures at the site during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 4. Weekly reports on the status and condition of the erosion control plan with any recommendations of change or revision to maintenance schedules or installation shall be submitted by the project Engineer of record to the public works inspector for the preliminary plat construction. Certification of the installation, maintenance and proper removal of the erosion control facilities shall be required prior to recording of the plat. STREET IMPROVEMENTS • Per the copy of the letter from SPU dated October 28, 1999, SPU does not allow the use of its rights of way for permanent roads. • The new street interior to the plat must be developed to City standards which are full 32 foot pavement width; with curbs, gutters, 5' sidewalks and street lighting. • All new electrical, phone and cable services to the plat must be undergrounded. Construction of these franchise utilities must be inspected and approved by a City of Renton public works inspector prior to recording of the plat. • Traffic mitigation fees of$75 per net new average daily trip ($716.25 per lot) will be required prior to recording of the plat. Fire mitigation and Parks mitigation fees must also be paid prior to recording of the plat. GENERAL • All required utility, drainage and street improvements will require separate plan submittals prepared according to City of Renton drafting standards by a registered Civil Engineer. The construction permit application must include a itemized cost estimate for these improvements. The fee for review and inspection of these improvements is 5% of the first $100,000 of the estimated construction costs; 4% of anything over $100,00 but less than $200,000, and 3% of anything over $200,000. Half of this fee must be paid upon application for construction permits (preliminary plat improvements), and the remainder when the construction permit is issued. There may be additional fees for water service related expenses. cc: Neil Watts , . ' • • DEC 61999 E:ONOMIC DE,,E 3Pm.o., NE,raS� � •.FNC, ,C,. r'dD STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMORANDUM . , . • . .

The following comments on development and permitting issues are based on the preapplication submittals made to the City of Renton by the project proponent and on the City of Renton Codes in effect on the date of the review. The project proponent is cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision makers (Hearing Examiner, Zoning Administrator, Board of Adjustment, Board of Public Works, and City Council). Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the project proponent. The project proponent is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code and the City of Renton Development Regulations. The Renton Municipal Code is available at the City Clerk's office and the Renton Public Library. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for $50.00, plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of Renton City Hall. • Project Proposal: The 10.36 acre property, located in the southeast portion of .the City of Renton adjacent to Philip Arnold Park, is owned by the Renton School District (tax parcel no: 202305 9110). The property lies southeast of the intersection of SE 7th Street, Jones Ave S, SE 7th Court, and Beacon Way SE. Our understanding is that the project proponent has an option to purchase the property. The proposed project would subdivide the property, by means of the Preliminary Plat process, into 60 lots suitable for detached, single family houses Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 2 and two tracts for on-site stormwater facilities. Primary access would be from SE • 7th Court, a public street that terminates in a cul-de-sac. A secondary access, for emergency use only, would be from the Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) easement (Beacon Way SE) that borders the property on the south. The first preapplication conference was held on September 2, 1999. On' November 4, 1999, the project proponent and their consultants met with community members to discuss the project. The project site plan was • subsequently revised. Land Use Permits, Variances, and Modifications Required: For subdivision of land into ten (10) or more lots, RMC 4-7-080 "Subdivision" guidelines apply. The proposed project will require Preliminary Plat and SEPA approval as the first, stagefollowed by Final Plat approval (see Final Plat Approval section below), which requires a separate application. Preliminary Plat proposals are initially reviewed by the Planning/Building/Public. Works Department, then considered by the Environmental Review Committee. Following issuance of an Environmental Threshold Determination, the plat request is heard by the Hearing Examiner at a public meeting. The decision and recommendations by the Hearing Examiner are forwarded to the City Council for consideration. The City Council adopts its own findings, conclusions, and recommendations and either approves or disapproves of the proposed plat. Application fees are $2000 for the Preliminary Plat application and $200 (1/2 of the $400 fee if the improvements are less than $100,000) or $500 (1/2 of the $1,000 fee if the improvements are more than $100,000) for Environmental (SEPA) Review. Processing time for Preliminary Plat is approximately 16 weeks, if no appeals are filed. A complete Preliminary Plat application package is included herewith. Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Regulations will apply and require submittal of a surveyed tree inventory and Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Plan. If vegetation will be removed from slopes 40% or greater for purposes of grading for roads and/or building lots, a variance from the Land Clearing and Tree Cutting Regulations will be required. The fee for an Administrative Variance is $100. The variance must be requested at the time of application submittal. Administrative approval of a(42�- oot wide (reduced from standard 50' width) public street right-of-way will also be required, if the entry drive is proposed as shown on the conceptual plan. Include a request for this modification, with a statement of justification, in the project narrative with the application. Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 3 The proponent has suggested that the City of Renton should, or may, enter into a maintenance agreement with Seattle Public Utilities so that access to the proposed project may be secured via the Seattle Public Utilities water line easement. Renton's Director of Public Works, Mr. Gregg Zimmerman, has determined that it would not be in the city's best interest to enter into such an agreement, therefore, a secondary access will have to be secured elsewhere rather than onto the SPU right-of-way. Current Land Use: The land is currently vacant. Zoning: The property is currently zoned Residential 8 dwelling units per net acre (R-8), it is designated as single family residential on Renton's Comprehensive Plan Land Use map. Density: In the R-8 Zone, the minimum density is 5.0 dwelling units per net acre for lots greater than 0.5 acre in size. The R-8 Zone permits residential development at densities up to 8.0 dwelling units per net acre. Density calculations are based on net parcel size, excluding sensitive areas (such as wetlands and steep slope areas) and public rights-of-way. In order to calculate density, the net area will need to be provided by the project proponent. If the project is not developed to the preferred density range, "shadow platting" may be implemented to demonstrate that future subdivision and development of lots may occur. Staff suggests that the project proponent consider creating fewer, larger lots for this project due to the following: • Severe traffic congestion on local streets, • Potential inability to mitigate traffic congestion due to lack of rights-of- way, and • Comprehensive Plan Policy LU-40.1. "New plats proposed at higher densities than adjacent neighborhood developments may be modified within the allowed density range to reduce conflicts between old and new development patterns." Minimum Lot Size: The minimum lot size in the.R-8 Zone is 4500 sf It cannot be determined from the information provided by the Project proponent if this standard has been met. Minimum Lot Width and Depth: The minimum lot width in this zone is 50' for interior lots and 60' for corner lots. The minimum allowable lot depth is 65'. Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat. Preapplication Comments • January 6, 2000 Page 4 • Although it cannot be determined from the information provided by the project proponent if this standard will be met, it appears, from scaling the drawing, that the lots as shown on the conceptual plan do not meet the required dimensions. Setbacks: The minimum setbacks in the R-8 Zone are: front 15' for houses and 20' for garages on streets created after September 1, 1995, and 20' if fronting on existing streets • rear 20' side 5' (interior lots) and 15' (corner lots) It cannot be determined from the information provided by the Project proponent if this standard will be met. Setback lines must be indicated on the site plan submitted for review. Building Height: Building heights in the R-8 Zone are limited to 2 stories and 30'. It cannot be determined from the information provided by the project proponent if this standard will be met. Building Coverage: The maximum building coverage on lots larger than 5,000 sf is 35% of the total lot area. The maximum building coverage for lots 5,000 sf or less is 50%. Building footprints are not indicated on the conceptual plan. For purpose of considering the preliminary plat, building envelopes should be shown on the plat map. Parking: Off street parking must be provided for each lot, at a minimum of 2 spaces each. Access: Each lot must have`access to a public street. The conceptual plan indicates that access will be from SE 7th Court. Availability of this access point will need to be verified. The City of Renton will not agree to maintain the Seattle Public Utilities easement so that it can be used as a secondary/emergency access for this project. . Streets: A traffic analysis, report, and recommendations will be required at the time of application. The scope of this report shall include anticipated traffic volumes and direction of travel. The traffic study must consider the seasonal use of Philip Arnold Park, which experiences significant increases in use from May to October. Stopping sight distance standards to meet 1994 American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards must be met (or . Heritage Arnold Preliminary Plat Preapplication Comments January 6, 2000 Page 5 mitigated) at the intersection of SE 7th Street, Jones Ave S, SE 7th Court, and Beacon Way SE. Sensitive Areas: The site is indicated as potentially sensitive on the City's Sensitive Areas maps for landslides and coal mine hazards. Due to these potential conditions, a geotechnical report that includes information and recommendations regarding any former mining activity on or near the property will be required. A topographic plan and slope analysis will be required, as well as a conceptual grading plan. Typical Environmental Mitigation measures placed on Preliminary Plats include a Fire Mitigation Fee ($488/new lot), Parks Mitigation Fee ($530.76/new lot), and Transportation Mitigation Fee (approximately $750/new lot). There are presently no fees charged for school mitigation, unless the site is within the Issaquah School District. Final Plat Recording: The Final Plat must conform, with only minor modifications, to the. Preliminary Plat. The Final Plat cannot be recorded until the required improvements are installed and approved, and a final drawing is prepared and accepted by the City. In addition, any conditions and/or fees must be met and/or paid prior to the recording of the Final Plat as applicable. A separate application packet is required. cc: Ryan Fike Jennifer Henning 1`SY O + ®. , CITY OF RENTON FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU - MEMORANDUM .

This is a 'Seattle Water Pipeline Right-of-Way, owned and controlled by the City of Seattle. Any use of Beacon Way S will require written approval from the City.of Seattle. • We have concerns with use of Beacon Av S for this subdivision. What assurances will be provided that any approval of use by Seattle will not be revoked in the future? Where will secondary/emergency access be from? Who will be responsible for maintenance of the street • improvements in Beacon Av S? • • We also have concerns with the additional traffic on Renton hill through existing residential . streets. A traffic study will be required for this project, which will need to address this concern. We recommend examining the option of routing the project access to the south, if possible, to Puget Dr S. • The excessive use of private streets along the easterly portion of the plat will not be supported by staff. This large of parcel can be platted in such a manner as to provide direct access to all the new lots directly from a public street, without creating a significant number of landlocked parcels dependent on access from narrower private streets.

SUBJECT: Arnold Preliminary Plat- 69 Lots Preapplication(#99-75) (800 Block of Beacon Way SE-NE of Philip Arnold Park) The site is designated Residential Single Family (RS)in the Comprehensive Plan, and zoned R-8. • The proposal appears to be near or above the upper end of the permitted density range for RS parcels over one-half acre. Even with modifications to reduce the density to 8 units per net acre, the proposed plat would be more dense than the surrounding neighborhoods. The following Residential Single Family designation policies address new plats proposed at higher densities than surrounding areas. . • Policy LU-40. New plats developed at higher densities within existing neighborhoods should be designed to incorporate street locations, lot configurations, and building envelopes which address privacy and quality of life for existing residents. . • Policy LU-40.1. New plats proposed at higher densities than adjacent neighborhood developments may be modified within the allowed density range to reduce conflicts between old and new development patterns. However,strict adherence to older standards is not required. Policy LU-40.2. Site features such as distinctive stands of trees and natural slopes should be retained, to enhance neighborhood character and preserve property values where possible. Retention of unique site features should be balanced with the objective of investing in neighborhoods within the overall context of the Vision Statement of this Comprehensive Plan. The Falcon Ridge development to the east includes on-site open space to buffer adjacent uses. Residential uses to the west are buffered by Philip Arnold Park. The development to the north, • however, is less than half as dense as the proposed plat. Further, lots in this plat appear to be somewhat lower than on the proposed site. The difference in elevation may emphasize the density differential between the developments.

The applicant is cautioned that review comments may need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. Also, information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision-makers (e.g., Environmental Review Committee, Hearing Examiner, and City Council). The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the City of Renton Development Regulations. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for $50.00, • plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall. Land Use Permits Required: The proposal will require a preliminary plat approval and environmental review and, as proposed, an administrative approval of a 42-foot reduced public street right of way. A complete Preliminary Plat and Environmental • Review application package is attached. In order to request approval of a reduced right of way, you will also need to include this request in your project narrative, along with a statement justifying the request. Total processing time will be approximately . 18 weeks, assuming no appeals are filed. Uses and Density:. The subject site is zoned R-8, Residential 8-Units Per Acre. Since the existing parcel is greater than one half acre in size, this zone permits single family residential development at densities at between 5 and 8 dwelling units per net acre. The overall property size is indicated to be approximately 10 acres in the preapplication information. If the site were found to contain sensitive area (i.e. slopes greater than 40%), these areas would have to be deducted from the total square footage along with the right of way area for the purposes of determining net density. The applicant has calculated the project density at 6.9 units per acre, however, this analysis does not seem to consider the required deduction of dedicated pubic street right of way. The applicant should determine the square footage of land to dedicated for public streets and recalculate total allowable density , • • based upon a starting acreage of less than 10 acres. As proposed, the project will likely result in a density of more than 8 units per acre Page 1 of 4 Access: RMC Section 4-7-170B states: "Each lot must have access to a public street or road. Access may be by private access easement street per the requirements of the street standards". The applicant will need to obtain approval of the City of Seattle to use their water pipeline right of way for access. This written approval must be provided to the City prior to the time of formal preliminary plat application. This will allow the City time to review the document and determine whether a variance is needed for the project. Assuming the City of Seattle • grants approval to use the "Beacon Way SE" right of way, each lot in the proposed plat will front on and have direct access from either "Beacon Way SE" or a private 26-foot access easement. If this written City of Seattle approval for access is in a format acceptable to the City Public Works Plan Review Division and City Attorney, then no formal variance from the subdivision regulations will be required as the City will consider this the same as a "public street or road". Lots fronting on "Beacon Way SE" will also have access via a proposed 20-foot alley to the rear of each of these lots. The new internal public street proposed by the applicant is only 42 feet in width. The City's street standards permit the Development Services Division to allow construction of a 42-foot wide public street (in lieu of the standard 50-foot wide residential access street) when "the extra area from the reduction is used for the creation of an additional lot(s) which could not be platted without the reduction OR when platting with the required right of way results in the creation of lots with less than 100 feet in depth". The conceptual plan indicates various Jot depths ranging from approximately 80 to 90 feet in depth so it is reasonable to assume that additional right of way would likely reduce the depths even further. The applicant does not provide a comparative analysis of the number of lots possible between the 50-foot and 42-foot streets. The applicant should note this request and basis for it in his project narrative at the.time of formal preliminary plat application. Access to approximately 20 of the lots will be via private access easement as permitted by Section 4-6-060J states that: "private streets are allowed for access to .• six (6) or less lots, with no more than four (4) of the lots not abutting a public right-of- way. Private streets will only be permitted if the proposed private street is not anticipated by the Department to be necessary for existing or future traffic and/or pedestrian circulation through the subdivision or to serve adjacent property. Such private streets shall consist of a minimum of a twenty six-foot (26') easement with a twenty-foot (20') pavement width. The private street shall provide a turnaround meeting the minimum requirements of this Chapter. No sidewalks are required for private streets, however, drainage improvements per City Code are required, as well as an approved pavement thickness (minimum of four inches (4") asphalt over six inches (6") crushed rock). The maximum grade for the private street shall not,exceed fifteen percent (15%), except for within approved hillside subdivisions". The applicant's proposal seems to generally comply with these requirements with the exception of the private access easement serving Lots 51 through 55. This can be modified in order to comply by revising Lot 55 to be a pipestem lot with frontage on the public street. Once done, only 4 of the lots in this area will "not abut" a public street. Page 2 of 4 • Lot Size:. The mini um lot size permitted by the zone is 4,500 square feet. The • applicant states that the proposing lot sizes are all 4,500 or greater. However, the pipestem area (area 20 feet or less in width) may not be counted toward the minimum lot area of any lot. For pipestem lots, the applicant should verity that the square footages listed do not include the pipestem portions. Lot Width—General: The minimum lot width in this zone is 50 feet (60 feet for corner lots). The lots have irregular widths that must be averaged to determine compliance with the 50-foot minimum lot width standard. For all irregularly shaped lots, the applicant should calculate the lot widths pursuant to Section 4-11-120L "Lot Width". The definition of lot width is as follows: "Width of a lot shall be considered to be the average distance between the side lines connecting front and rear lot lines ." In calculating compliance with the 50-foot minimum lot width, the following formula may be used: Proposed Lot Area divided by Lot Depth = Average Lot Width. • Since individual lot square footages and dimensions were not provided by the applicant,*I was unable to check compliance with the minimum lot width requirements. The applicant will need to verify compliance for the irregularly shaped • lots (#s 19, 21, 29, 30, 50, 56, 57, 60, 61, 62, 64, 68, and 69) prior to formal submittal. Lot Width—at Street: RMC Section 4-7-170D, City Subdivision Regulations, states: "Widths between the side lot lines at their foremost points (i.e. the points where the side lot lines intersect the with the street right of way line) shall not be less than 80% of the required lot width except in the cases of (1) pipestem lots, which shall have a • minimum width of twenty feet (20') and (2) lot on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac shall be a minimum of 35' for non-pipestem lots." In this case, the required lot width for this zone is 50 feet. Therefore, the typical minimum lot width for the portion fronting on a street cannot be less than 40 feet (80% of 50 feet). Lots 22, 50, 55, 56, 57, 68, 69 have less than 40 feet in width at their street frontage. These are all considered to be "pipestem" lots even though some of them are located on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac. The applicant should keep in mind that the portions of the "pipestem" lots which are narrower than 80% of the zone's minimum lot width (40 feet or less in this case) may not be counted toward the minimum lot area of those lots and that adjacent pipestem lots (e.g. Lots 50, 55 and 56) shall have mandatory shared driveways. The applicant may opt to increase the width of those lots on the turning radius of a cul-de-sac to 35 feet in order to avoid the shared driveway and/or lot area reduction requirements applicable to pipestem lots. Lot Depth: Minimum lot depth is 65 feet. The proposal clearly provides adequate lot depth (scaling from 80 to 90 feet) for the majority of the lots, however, prior to application, average'depths of Lots 29, 61, and 62 should be verified. • Page 3 of 4 • • Lot Configuration: RMC Section 4-7-170A, Arrangement, states: "In so far as • practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines . . ." The proposed plat seems to generally comply with this requirement. Setbacks: Proposed Lot#62 may be somewhat difficult to build upon given-its large front yard and.shallow depth. Proposed Tracts: The proposed drainage tract appears to comply with minimum lot width, depth and area requirements. There are two other "parcels" indicated to the south of Lot 20 and to the east of Lot 53 which do not appear to comply with zoning standards. Their proposed use is unclear from the plans. These "parcels" will need • to be revised to comply with zoning requirements or, as an alternative, be created as easements. . Sensitive Areas: Coal Mines and Slopes: The site is indicated as containing 4 or 5 old coal mine shafts and designated as a moderate.hazard area on the City's mine map. The site may also contain slopes over 40%: The current City regulations prohibit vegetation/tree removal on portions of the site with slopes over 40% or in areas between 25% and 40% with landslide hazard potential. coA geotechnical report, which addresses steep slopes, coal mine hazards, etc., will be required as part of the formal preliminary plat application in order to determine any building issues related to the mine hazard or slope issues. If the steeply sloping areas of the site are small in area, th': City has made an administrative determination, attached, regarding the need for variance that may be relative to this project. Aquifer Protection Zone 2: ,The site is also located in Aquifer Protection Zone 2 (APA 2). The APA 2 designation should have no impact on the development since the lots are to be sewered. Mitigation and Development Related Fees: See attached fee schedule.

Enhancement activities shall not involve the use of mechanical equipment." The Code Section does not provide clear direction as to when certain minor steep slope areas are exempt from regulation. JUSTIFICATION: According to the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations, slopes 40%or greater may not be cleated, nor trees removed,unless the action is considered to be enhancement. The regulation does not exempt minor steep slopes, or man- made slopes resulting from human action, such as those slopes created as the result of road cuts. 'The Greenbelt Regulations (Code Section 4-3-070:C.3) define steep slope areas subject to regulation as landform features of a site between significant and identifiable changes in slope. Slope is defined as the . • average slope of the lot or portion thereof in percent between significant changes in slope, determined by observation on simple slopes, or more precisely by the formula: S=100IL A . Where"I"is the contour interval in feet but not greater than ten feet(10'); "L"is the combined length of the contour lines in scale feet; and "A"is the net area between significant changes in slope of the lot in square feet. A significant change in slope is defined as a bench or plateau at least fifteen feet(15') in width. . The same definition should apply to slopes regulated for the purposes of determining whether a Variance is needed from the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations. • DECISION: Tree cutting and land clearing on slopes greater than 40% may be accomplished without a Variance from the Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations (RMC 4-4-130:C.4) provided that slope "bench" is less than 15 • feet in width, and the "drop" or change in elevation is less than 10 feet.

Osrl �L Dear Mr Kaufman: I wish to have the following questions addressed to the developer of this project and the questions and answers made public record: (These questions follow the order of the Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner, Section G, subsection 3., Compliance with ERC Mitigation Measures): 1. What is the emergency plan if the silt fence fails during weekends or holidays or at any other time? 8. Are Geotech Consultants, Inc., aware of the upper Renton coal vein #1 {#1 bed), approx. elevation 250 feet above sea level (shown on "Jones Playfield Survey") previously submitted to the Hearing Examiner? (This vein was worked from 1874 to 1886. The newer, most commonly known mine was opened in 1901 and entered on the west side of Renton Hill near 10th and Cedar. This entrance was later relocated to the base of the west side of Renton Hill. Thus, the 1874 entrance was considerably higher and nearest the surface of Renton Hill) (Reference: The Coal Fields of King County, Washington Geological Survey,by George Watkin Evans, Olympia, Washington, 1912). 12. Which route will be used for removal of and re-introduction of fill and other construction materials? 12. Is the developer willing to remove all pavement and repave South 7th from the project to Renton Ave So, and Renton Avenue So, from South 3rd to South 7th if it is determined that sufficient damage has occurred to warrant such work? (The existing posted weight limit for these streets is 20,000 pounds, empty weight). Have these mitigation measures been addressed or proposed in some other document? 13. Will the emergency entrance / access be closed off during construction at all times and when construction is halted during evenings or weekends? (Ref. Page 9 of the Preliminary Report): Project Compliance with the Environmental Element: Will all new purchasers of the developed homes be required to join the "Homeowners Association" as a condition of sale? If not, who will maintain the downhill storm water control system? Thank you for submitting these concerns. i(r4 Mr&Mrs Wm Collins 420 Cedar Ave So Renton, WA 98055 in. 6 4- CITE OF RENTON "LL Planning/Building/Public Works • ,. 1055 South Grady Way - Renton Washington 98055 a cF '�p�.,"`•? `" ADDRESS SERVICE REQUESTED 7�p p �i - 101 e /o� F8 I Ile r oflitj.\ tEsaaoi U.3.

Kaufman Hearing Examiner CITY OF RENTON HEARING EXAMINER City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots will fewer homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a 25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations. Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg November 9 2000 D J 0 NOV 1 4 20J0 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman - CI1y OF RENTON _ '>=_=:' NEARING DARNER Hearing Examiner City of Renton 1055 South Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 RE: Heritage Renton Hill proposed subdivision by Bennett Development • Dear Mr. Kaufman: I am a resident of Renton Hill, writing in regards to the Preliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner for the Heritage Renton Hill subdivision proposed by Bennett Development. I appreciate the opportunity to provide comments to certain statements that are included in the aforementioned report. Lot Sizes and Unit Density The average lot size as proposed for the development is 5,350 sq ft, equivalent to almost 7 dwelling units (homes) per acre. This is considerably more dense and inconsistent with neighboring homes on the Renton Hill. Lot sizes in River Ridge, which borders the project to the immediate north, are on the order of 20,000 sq ft. The remainder of the Renton Hill neighborhood adjacent to the project consists of lot sizes on the order of 10,000 sq ft, or about 4 homes per acre. The statement on Page 8 of the Preliminary Report that the proposed project would satisfy Policy H-82 — to relate the size of structures to the size of lots in order to create development which fits into a neighborhood — is therefore untrue. The proposed subdivision is about 4 times as dense as the neighboring River Ridge homes to the north and about 2 times as dense as the remaining Renton Hill neighborhood. Here a distinction needs to be made. The Falcon Ridge subdivision to the east of the proposed Heritage Renton Hill, which is closer in density to the proposed development, is NOT part of the Renton Hill community. The applicant states on Page 10 that "these (proposed)lot sizes are smaller than the eleven lots in the development to the north, River Ridge, but are compatible with other existing lots in the area". The first part of this statement regarding River Ridge is certainly true, but the second part of this statement is not true for the remainder of Renton Dill and can only be true if compared to the Falcon Ridge subdivision. Falcon Ridge is a completely self-contained, isolated, and separate community from the Renton Hill. Unlike the proposed development, access to Falcon Mr. Fred J. Kaufman - 2 - November 9, 2000 Ridge is NOT through the Renton Hill. As indicated by the name of the development, Heritage Renton Hill as proposed IS part of the Renton Hill. On Page 6, the applicant clearly states "the proposed project would be a part of the Renton Hill neighborhood". And it is therefore the Renton Hill, not Falcon Ridge (which will remain a separated community), which would be primarily impacted by the development. As such, it is inappropriate to include and make comparisons with Falcon Ridge, in terms of lot density and as part of the neighboring community. The present R-8 zoning on Renton Hill (a recent rezone which is inconsistent with the actual homes and lot sizes in the neighborhood) stipulates between 5 and 8 homes per acre. In order to comply with Policy H-82 and to create a better fit into the affected neighboring community, it would seem one of the following three things should be done: (1) lower the density of units per acre to at least 5, resulting in about 41 lots instead of 57; (2) redesign access to the proposed development to come from the Falcon Ridge side to the east and/or southeast and not through the Renton Hill; or(3)not develop the project. Traffic.Impacts My other greatest concern about the development, shared with the majority of Renton Hill residents, is the increase in traffic—both during the construction and after. Many of these concerns have already been clearly addressed by the appeal brought forth by the Renton Hill Community Association, particularly in regards to the large amount of truck traffic that would be required for a project of this size. Because the project is on the southeast corner of Renton Hill and access to Renton Hill is at the opposite northwest corner, essentially the entire Renton Hill neighborhood would be impacted due to the increase in traffic. Traffic movement is already restricted on Renton Hill streets, due in large part to steep slopes, poor sight lines (visibility), and narrow rights of way. The applicant himself states on Page 12: "The limited access restricts traffic on streets that date from the earliest days of the City and are more narrow than now allowed by street standards. On-street parking, which is allowed on some streets, although not all of them, further constricts movement across Renton Hill". When this is factored with the additional traffic from 57 homes, estimated to result in an additional 544 weekday trips on average (Page 3 of Advisory Notes attached to the Preliminary Report), the impact is significant. Page 6 of the Preliminary Report indeed states: "Increased traffic volumes could cause conflicts between existing and new residents". It is estimated by the applicant that future increases in traffic on Cedar and Renton Avenues would be approximately 25% from the proposed project (Page 7). The land surface area of the project, however, would only contribute about 10% or less to the developed part of Renton Hill. Thus the project would contribute a disproportionate impact to the traffic on the hill, a result of the disparagingly higher density lots. If the proposed access to the development were from the southeast, as suggested in the previous paragraph, there would be less impact to these streets that are already constricted. Unlike Renton Ave S or Cedar Ave S, Puget Drive is a major road arterial better suited for such an increase in traffic. Mr. Fred J. Kaufman -3 - November 9, 2000 I can appreciate and understand the desire and perceived need to create higher density living that is close in. However, such development should not adversely impact the adjoining neighborhoods and should also not be so disparagingly different from the affected neighborhoods in terms of lot densities. I appreciate the opportunity to share my views with you and thank you for your consideration of these issues. Yours truly, ZaftL- Robert C.

Your letter of May 15, 2000, was received by the Development Services Department with other comments on the proposed project. As a result of the comments received, a"hold" was placed on the proposed project on May 26, 2000. The applicant submitted revised plans in September 2000. Because the plans were substantially different, we again requested comments on the project and received them between September 15th and 29th You requested that the "turnaround at the gate on Beacon Way SE at Phillip Arnold Park" be maintained. We verified that Beacon Way SE, the gate, and the park entry were not going to be affected by the proposed development. We did not understand, however, that your request also included school district property, which was at that time under option for purchase by Bennett Development. There were many discussions held with Seattle Public Utilities regarding use of the SPU Cedar River Pipeline Easement (Beacon Way SE). SPU representatives reminded us many times that there were no agreements recorded as to use of the 100 foot wide Easement. This includes use of the Easement for residents whose homes front on Beacon Way SE as well as for access to Philip Arnold Park. Because of this situation, there is no public right-of-way that could have been legally "expanded" to include a portion of the development property. The City of Renton, /// including the Park Department, has no control over what happens on Beacon Way SE. It is regrettable that we did not have a full understanding of the issue. If we had understood thatbuses turned around on school district property, we would have recommended that an easement be requested by the school district prior to sale of the property to Bennett Homes.

We had to wait for a truck/trailer to go before us. The trailer had written in bold letters "OVERSIZE LOAD" and was carrying a large bulldozer. License# 1161 NI. As we went down Renton Ave. So., three cars were coming up hill. The truck did not yield for any of these cars, forcing two of them to stop. At the stop light at the bottom of the hill I got out of our vehicle and walked to the front of the truck to get his license-#A88177I. I went back to my vehicle and the truck sat- blocking the downhill exit (both lanes) at Mill Ave.So.The driver sat thru two green lights then came back to our vehicle. He wanted to know why I took his license number. I told him there was a restriction of weight- at least during peak traffic. He stated no one had told him of this restriction and he had done nothing wrong. He returned to the truck and sat for 4 more green lights, blocking all traffic waiting to leave the hill. If the only way to enforce the requirements of the construction on the Heritage project is to assign a babysitter, Please do so. Ruthie Larson i19 1-Itgh Ave , , .

The errors of fact, omission, and irregular voting procedures on September 10th 2001, should have been routed to the Committee of the Whole acting as a quasi-judicial body as they need legal clarification. This quasi-judicial body had the responsibility of writing a report to the non quasi-judicial Committee of the Whole with the conclusions of that body. At that point the report sent would be read to the City Council to be voted on. The first vote taken September 10th, 2001, should have been the quasi- judicial vote, of that acting body, asking acceptance of the recommendation. At that point, however, there was no agreed upon recommendation. The vote that followed the discussion to make the recommendation was a tie vote. The Mayor then voted to break the tie. The Mayor should not have voted, as he is not a member of the quasi- judicial body. The Mayors vote being accepted nullifies the quasi-judicial aspect of the recommendation. This vote then, is not a legal vote, as it became a vote of the Committee of the Whole without a committee conclusion required by the quasi-judicial procedure. The last vote taken, as a quasi-judicial body, would have been on September 6th, 2001. The Motion of Reconsideration was submitted so that any member of the quasi-judicial committee who wanted to make the motion could address the incorrect Resolution generated by this process as well as the legality of the Procedure. I apologize for the misdirection of this request. The request is valid under Administrative Law Rules as it was written and should proceed.

For these reasons,the City of Renton is herein requesting that"Special Term"number 4 of the draft City of Seattle—Seattle Public Utilities Permit and Agreement be modified to read as follows: . 4. No construction vehicles shall be allowedon any portion of SPU's CRPL R/W,without specific approval of the'Operations and Engir.neering Department of SPU. In addition,the City of Renton is also requesting that SPU allow use of the portion of the CRPL R/W from . - . the proposed Heritage Renton Hill emeigency access,south to its intersection with Puget Drive SE,an •• approximate distance of 2,600 feet,for Heritage Renton Hill site and building construction. The start date for construction is January:15,2002. The work would-be completed in a single phase,with • the completion the site construction set for June.:15t1, Building construction would be initiated on about July 15a`with completion by July 15,2003. It is estimated that the number of trips per day throughout the • construction period would be fifteen. The trucks used for the site construction would have legal loads of . • 100,000 lbs.and those for house construction,40,000 lbs: . • As previously mentioned,the City of Renton considers this request as necessary and appreciates the • . • consideration this serious matter will be given by Seattle Public Utilities.

The letter requests reconsideration of the Council's action on September 10,2001,to approve the HeritagelRetttdn`H ll,pieliminary plat by a tie vote with the Mayor casting the deciding vote. In accordancd wi tlf Council policies;=Renton City Council meetings are governed by Robert's Rules of Or*on parliamentary procedure. According to Roberts New Rules of Order, 10th edition,reconsideration enables a majority.in'an.assembly,within a limited time and without notice, to bring back for,'further consideration a motion which has already been voted on. The. purpose of reconsidering a vote is•to perimt.correqtioi;yofr .asty,`ill-advised,or erroneous action,or to take into account added information or a changed kituation'that has developed since the taking of the vote. "' -i ',. 5 • The motion to reconsider has the following':unique characteristics: The motion can be made only by a member who voted with the prevailing side. Secondly,the motion to;reconsider is subject to time - limits, and, in the case of City Council meetings,must be made either during the same meeting at which the original motion was made'or at the next succeeding meeting. Since'the Council's action on the motion to approve the plat took place on September'10, 2001, a motion to reconsider would have been required at the next regular meeting;or September 17, 2001,by a member who voted with the prevailing side.

After listening to you two preach so avidly to vote against the plat, you turn right around and change your minds. So ????Who was it that took you aside (wink) and changed your minds???? If you know what I mean???This is totally ridiculous. I guess it doesn't matter how dangerous it's going to be going up and down the very steep Renton Ave. during peak hours trying to maneuver around 3 or 4 dump trucks coming up the hill at the same time. I guess it doesn't matter that trying to get down the hill is already a chore in its self at times. This is a very unique situation.This isn't like adding new developments in Kennydale or the Highlands.WE LIVE ON A HILL THAT HAS DRIVEWAYS ENTERING AND EXITING ON TO AN ALREADY DIFFICULT AVENUE TO GET UP AND DOWN FROM THE HILL. I guess that thought really doesn't matter though. DOES IT99299 Have any of you (that voted against it) ever driven up or down our hill during peak traffic periods???? If you had, you would know what all of us are talking about. I usually do not get too involved in our Council Elections. But I promise you, I will do my part to make sure that ALL THE PEOPLE ON RENTON HILL are aware of the two seats that are up for re-election this fall that backed out of their previous vote.

In conclusion,Ms. Lind said that the recommendation is to amend several sections of the City Code relating to storage,development standards and definitions. Audience comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY NELSON, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. CARRIED. (See page 311 for ordinance.) APPEAL Council President Clawson presented a report regarding the Heritage Renton Committee of the Whole Hill preliminary plat appeal(PP-00-053 &AAD-00-149). The Committee of Appeal: Heritage Renton Hill, the Whole recommended that the Heritage Renton Hill preliminary plat be Renton Hill Community Assoc denied. Although several Councilmembers expressed personal knowledge (PP-00-053 &AAD-00-149) concerning the traffic situation on Renton Hill, that testimony cannot,by rule, be considered. Therefore, the Council Committee has limited its recommendation to the record before the Hearing Examiner. In support of its recommendation,the Committee of the Whole recommended that the full Council adopt the following changes to the Hearing Examiner's report and recommendation dated January 25,2001. The last sentence of conclusion number one should be modified to read "reducing the density of this plat to fifty lots will not adequately reduce the untoward impacts on the existing residents." The Committee of the Whole recommended that Council make the following additional conclusions: • FINDING NUMBER 15—The plat as proposed would not further public safety. The narrow streets combined with permitted on street parking reduce several of the streets on Renton Hill to one-way streets. Adding twenty-five percent more traffic to this already unacceptable situation will create a safety hazard. • FINDING NUMBER 16—The intersection of S. 7th St. and Renton Ave. S. already presents a dangerous situation. Visibility at that intersection is poor and in some instances nonexistent. Adding an additional twenty-five percent of traffic to that intersection creates an unwarranted safety problem. • FINDING NUMBER 17—The exit from this plat is unusual. The plat exit is only 110 feet from the intersection of S. 7th Ct. with Beacon Way SE. Normally, 150 feet of distance is necessary. Even though the Transportation Division found this intersection adequate,the fact that the intersection is now a five-way intersection that would, with the addition of the exit road from this plat, become, in essence, a six-way intersection creates an unacceptably dangerous intersection. The Committee of the Whole recommended that the Hearing Examiner's conclusion number 15 be renumbered 17 and be modified to read "in conclusion the proposed preliminary plat should be denied by the City Council." The Committee of the Whole recommended that the recommendation be changed to read "the City Council should deny the preliminary plat." September 10,2001 Renton City Council Minutes Page 307 MOVED BY KEOLKER-WHEELER, SECONDED BY BRIERE, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT.* Councilman Parker stated that he is against the committee report and upholds the recommendation of the hearing examiner for the following reasons: • The transportation engineer and the City's transportation staff have determined that there is adequate street capacity with the development in place. • He can find no error in judgment with the hearing examiner's recommendations. • If the plat is denied, the City will be put in a position to be sued in Superior Court; the City cannot prevail, and will be liable for damages. Mr. Parker said that although he is sympathetic with the Renton Hill residents, he is equally sympathetic with citizens who live in other areas of Renton and are also affected by traffic problems. Council President Clawson agreed with Councilman Parker and stated that he is against denying the preliminary plat. He expressed concern about defending the denial of the plat in Superior Court, and emphasized that he represents all Renton residents,not just a single neighborhood, and cannot subject the City to a lawsuit that may cost well over$100,000 in attorney's fees. Councilman Corman also expressed his concerns regarding the committee report, saying that he spent many hours looking through the record trying to find an error that would allow the City to deny the plat. He stated that the City is not in a position to stop this, and denying the plat would only delay the process; therefore,he upholds the decision of the hearing examiner. *MOTION FAILED. (Mayor Tanner voted "no" to break the tie vote.) MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY CLAWSON, COUNCIL DENY THE APPEAL OF THE HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT AND ADOPT THE PRELIMINARY PLAT AS RECOMMENDED BY THE HEARING EXAMINER.* Councilman Corman asked if there was any procedural way to have a safety study performed on intersections that will be affected by this development, even if the City cannot require the developer to make outside improvements. Councilman Parker added that it would be appropriate to look into this issue to see what could be done in the normal course of business. Council President Clawson and Councilman Corman discussed the possibility of amending the motion to require the developer to conduct a study of the traffic issues. Mayor Tanner pointed out that the Council can always address the improvements to the intersection in the future. Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler stated for the record that all neighborhoods in the City are not exactly the same. They have unique characteristics, some more than others. In this instance, the Renton Hill neighborhood is on a very steep hill and has some constraints due to the topography and the location of the houses which are very close to the street. Pointing out that improvements to the neighborhood have been considered and conducted in the past, Ms. Keolker- Wheeler said that more than likely those improvements have already be done. September 10,2001 Renton City Council Minutes Page 308 For the record, Council President Clawson acknowledged that there are visibility problems at the intersection of S. 7th St. and Renton Ave. S. and recommended that City funds be expended to fix the problem. *MOTION CARRIED TO UPHOLD THE HEARING EXAMINER'S DECISION AND APPROVE THE HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT. (Mayor Tanner voted "aye" to break the tie vote.) MOVED BY PARKER, SECONDED BY CLAWSON, COUNCIL SUSPEND THE RULES AND ADOPT THE RESOLUTION APPROVING THE HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT.* Resolution#3526 A resolution was read approving the Heritage Renton Hill preliminary plat Appeal: Heritage Renton Hill, located southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way S. with SE 7th Ct.,Jones Renton Hill Community Assoc Ave. S.,and S. 7th St on Renton Hill. File No. PP-00-053 and AAD-00-149. (PP-00-053 &AAD-00-149) *MOTION CARRIED TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION. (Mayor Tanner voted"aye" to break the tie vote.) ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2001 and beyond.

A Directional Parking Violations Renton resident for 23 years,Mr. Chesnes commented that never before has this violation been enforced in his area. He said he knows that there is a reason for the law and understands its application to arterials and busy streets, but not to residential streets. Mr. Chesnes recommended that the law be amended. On another subject,Mr. Chesnes expressed his concerns regarding the lack of parking at Gene Coulon Park. Citizen Comment: Buss— Christopher Buss, 362 Earlington Ave. SW,Renton, 98055,commented on Directional Parking Violations directional parking violations, saying that the issue entails not only the directional parking law but the traffic controller's enforcement of the law. Mr. Buss stated that,compared to surrounding areas,Renton's issuance of parking infraction citations is high. He questioned the City's inconsistent and unfriendly enforcement of the violations and asked Council to amend the law. Citizen Comment: Pillo— Ben Pillo, 860 Chelan Ave. NE,Renton, 98059, spoke in support of the Johnson Annexation,Jericho Johnson Annexation and relayed problems he has had with King County Ave NE,NE 6th&NE 9th Sts relating to storm water drainage issues.

LUA-00053,PP,ECF and LUA-00-140, AAD Dear Councilmembers and Mayor Tanner: We write to request your assistance. This-fmn represents Bill Sherman and Todd Bennett and their companies, Sherman Homes ("Sherman") and Bennett Homes ("Bennett"). Mr. Sherman is the current applicant for the above-referenced preliminary plat. Mr. Sherman was not the original applicant;but acquired a fifty percent interest in the property and permit applications in February,2001. At that time, Mr. Sherman expected to be installing plat improvements this summer and building homes for Renton citizens in 2001. Unfortunately, the project has continued to be plagued by delays in City processing. . We understand that, on July 23, 2001, an announcement was made by Councilmember and Committee Chair Koelker-Wheeler that the Planning and Development Committee would provide its report on these matters on August 6, 2001. Accordingly,we expect that on August 6, the Council will be able to set this matter for Monday August 13, 2001 for decision on the preliminary plat and resolution of the SEPA Appeal. We urge the Council to review this matter on August 13, 2001.

For your information, a summary timeline of this application's processing delays follows: • During the autumn of 1999 through the spring of 2000, the applicant held several community meetings, and met with the City to fine-tune its application. • In May of 2000, the application was deemed complete for processing. • The original hearing date scheduled for June 27, 2000 was postponed about four and one-half months to November 14, and subsequently extended to November 16 and December 12,2000. • The Hearing Examiner's decision on both the preliminary plat and a neighborhood State Environmental Policy Act("SEPA") appeal was issued on January 25, 2001. That decision affirmed the Environmental Review Committee's issuance of an MDNS and recommended that the Preliminary Plat be approved by the City Council. • The Renton Hill Community Association("Association") filed a request for reconsideration with the Hearing Examiner on February 7, 2001. The Hearing Examiner considered the request and provided a substantive response on February 12,2001,upholding his original decision. • The Association appealed the Hearing Examiner Decision to the City Council in February, 2001. • On February 26, 2001, the City Council agreed to send the appeal of the Hearing Examiner's decision to the Planning and Development Committee for recommendation. • The Council Planning and Development Committee held a hearing on April 26, 2001. • •On'June 18, 2001 the Planning and Development Committee sent a memorandum. requesting more information from staff. • On June 21, 2001 staff responded to that request, and in favor of all previous decisions. • On July 23, 2001, the Council Planning and Development Committee chair announced that the Committee report would be provided on August 6, 2001. These delays are well beyond the normal processing timeframes. To date,Mr. Sherman has patiently waited for these delays to be resolved and a decision to be rendered on his application. Again,we urge you to avoid further delay and to set these issues for review at your meeting on August 13, 2001. • City Councilmembers Mayor Jesse Tanner August 1, 2001 Page 3 Thank you for your attention to this matter.

APPEALS Planning and Development Committee Chair Keolker-Wheeler presented a Planning&Development report regarding the Heritage Renton Hill preliminary plat appeal(PP-00-053 & Committee AAD-00-149). The appeal consists of two issues. The first is an environmental Appeal: Heritage Renton Hill, appeal from the mitigated determination of non-significance for this project. Renton Hill Community The second issue deals with the appropriateness of the proposed preliminary Association(PP-00-053 & plat. AAD-00-149) With respect to the environmental appeal,the Committee finds no substantial error in fact or law and recommended that the Council affirm the Hearing Examiner's decision. With respect to the to the plat, the Committee focused on three issues all related to transportation and traffic safety on Renton Hill. These issues were addressed in the Planning and Development Committee Report of June 18,2001,and in a letter asking for additional explanations from the City's Transportation Division. Based upon the record before the Committee on these transportation issues,the Committee noted that the applicant's transportation engineer found the questioned areas safe,as did the City's Transportation Division. However,the Committee also heard, from the record, substantial testimony from Renton Hill residents about transportation safety. The Committee believes that the record is contradictory about public safety and adequate roads, and the Committee makes no recommendations on these issues. Rather,the Planning&Development Committee recommended that the Committee of the Whole make the decision concerning 1)the safety and design of the intersection at S. 7th St. and Renton Ave. S.,2)the impact of the increased traffic on what amounts to one-way streets on Renton Hill because of the need for on-street parking, and 3)the safety and adequacy of the entrance to this plat. Since the record is substantial,the Committee recommended that Councilmembers who are not members of the Planning and Development Committee be given at least two weeks in which to review the record prior to the Committee of the Whole meeting. It should be noted that the Committee considered recommending that the Council commission an independent transportation engineering report to consider the three transportation issues August 6,2001 Renton City Council Minutes Page 259 previously noted and that is still an option if the full Council wishes to have additional information on which to base its decision. This appeal once again highlights the difficult role that the City Council plays when sitting as a quasi-judicial body handling land use appeals since the changes made in State law on regulatory reform. The Council normally listens to its constituents, often on a one-on-one basis in order to fulfill their jobs as Councilmembers. However, when handling quasi-judicial appeals,no such contact is permitted. In fact,the Councilmembers are limited to the testimony already in the record and cannot consider new evidence, even if they believe that there areas that have been inadequately explored or new issues that were not explored at all. The Committee therefore recommended that the topic of the Council's appellate role in quasi-judicial matters be referred to the Committee of the Whole for review and recommendation. MOVED BY KEOLKER- WHEELER, SECONDED BY CORMAN, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE ' COMMITTEE REPORT.* Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler stated for the record that there is a substantial amount of material to review regarding this matter. If the report is approved, Ms.Keolker-Wheeler said that the full Council would sit as the appellate body which means that the Council cannot discuss the appeal with the public or receive further testimony. She expressed her frustration with the land use appeal process,commenting that if Council did not hear appeals and the process was handled outside of Renton, Councilmembers could assist citizens with the appeal process. Council discussion ensued regarding the issue of handling appeals within the City of Renton or having the Superior Court hear appeals. Councilman Corman also expressed his frustration with the inability of Council to talk to citizens about issues because of an appeal. Councilman Parker and Council President Clawson indicated their support for having the appeal process remain within the responsibility of the City. *MOTION CARRIED. Appeal: Service Linen Planning and Development Committee Chair Keolker-Wheeler presented a Expansion, Service Linen report regarding the Service Linen expansion appeal(SA-00-131). The Supply(SA-00-131) Committee convened to consider the appeal of the decision of the Hearing Examiner dated March 26, 2001, and reconsidered on April 26,2001. The subject property is located at 903 S.4th St. The applicant seeks a site plan approval for a 33,000 square foot expansion of the existing Service Linen facility. The applicant appealed four conditions imposed by the Hearing Examiner. The four conditions concerned: 1)not increasing the number of shifts or the hours of those shifts; 2)the hours of operation of the boilers; 3) the installation of best technology to reduce noise created by the operation; and 4)the installation of best technology to reduce odors created by the operation. The Committee found that the Hearing Examiner has committed a substantial error of law related to conditions 9 and 10 in that he imposed conditions that went beyond the hours and number of shifts for the existing operation. The Committee concluded that the language proposed by the applicant for conditions 9 and 10 is appropriate and should be adopted. The Committee also concluded that the Hearing Examiner did not have the authority to impose condition 11,insofar as it affects hours of operation. • APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT Date, ff-L ' ° COMMITTEE REPORT (August 6, 2001) Her�ta a Rentoni11-Prelimma >Ptat A.:.:- eal- (File LUUA,-00 05 3 PP ECF and LUA-00 149'rAA:D).s' (Referred-February 12, 2001) This appeal consists of two issues.

The staff response is in italics. 1. The entrance/exit from the plat is a very unusual design which brings three roads together in a very odd intersection. The developer originally proposed an entrance/exit from the Seattle Public Utility Cedar River Pipeline easement. This is not a public right of way however, so was not a viable proposal(City Code 4-7-080.B.2 requires access to be established to a public road for each segregated parcel). Seattle exercises full control over access onto their pipeline right-of-way and also maintenance of the pipeline road. It is not desirable to allow the primary access to a subdivision from a private road that neither the City nor the future residents will exercise any control over(note that during the City of Renton's negotiations with Seattle over the water franchise, Seattle made it clear that they control access to the pipeline road, and can make decisions independent ofRenton's or the residents'wishes regarding public access, conditions associated with public access, and pavement maintenance). The only portion of the School District property that fronts on a public right-of-way is where the entrance is now proposed to be located This is the city's preferred location, the only feasible location, and the entrance was moved to this place on the property at the city's request. Staff feels this will be a safe intersection, as addressed below. 2. The intersection of 7th and Renton Ave.South is a four-way intersection,with three of the four legs of the intersection having stop signs. The fourth leg,which is a very steep uphill leg,does not have a stop sign. The traffic from the plat would have to go through this intersection. The distance from the stop line for vehicles exiting from the plat to the stop line of vehicles waiting to travel westbound from the intersection of S 7th Court and Beacon Way S. exceeds the minimum based on AASHTO A policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets. Signs and channelization will conform with the requirements of the MUTCD (Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices). Staff believes this will be a safe intersection. C:\My DocumentsTheritage hills.doc\cor J , • Page 2. Staff concurs with the traffic report for this project, which indicates that the additional traffic generated by the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat will have negligible impact on the safety of the intersection at 7`h and Renton Avenue South. The Stop signs conform to MUTCD standards. 3. The rights-of-way are very narrow on Renton Hill,particularly on Cedar Avenue South and Renton Avenue South. Houses on the hill have been developed without adequate garage space,resulting in a large amount of street parking. The effect is that these two streets are reduced,in many places,to one-lane roads in addition to being very steep. These cited conditions are very.common in Renton, Seattle, and elsewhere,particularly in the older neighborhoods that were built with narrow street standards and smaller sized lots. Many streets in Renton will not easily accommodate two-way traffic when cars are parked on both sides of the streets. Since these streets are neighborhood streets not subject to heavy traffic loads, motorists commonly and safely negotiate these situations by proceeding single file. The situation will not differ much from current conditions on Renton Hill, except that there will be marginally more traffic after the development is built. It should be noted that there has not been an accident problem on Renton Ave. South nor on Cedar Ave. South in the past and one is not anticipated because of the development. For the reasons stated above,staff does not feel that there will be a public safety hazard introduced by this development as designed. The Committee has asked what existing City Codes,Rules or Regulations,whether original City Ordinances,or Codes adopted by reference would apply to these areas. It is assumed that this request pertains to street standards. Section 4-6-060 of the City Code establishes street standards. These standards apply to new streets and half-street improvements. New streets associated with the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat comply with these standards. The standards do not apply to existing streets. This project also complies with the adopted City-wide traffic concurrency standards(City Code 4-6-070)pursuant to the Growth Management Act. The project will be required to pay a transportation mitigation fee in compliance with 4-1-190 of City Code. The City has also adopted by reference(Code 9-7-1)the Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction published by the Washington State Department of Transportation,and amendments(Code 9-7-2). Consistent with this document,the City implements national standards established by AASHTO and MUTCD(see above references)and also ITE. Staff feels that the transportation features of the proposed Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat are in substantial compliance with these standards. The Committee has asked whether the Growth Management Act or any other state code mandates approval of development in areas like this where there is concern about public safety and no reasonable means for the city to address the concern or require the developer to mitigate the concern. To our knowledge neither the Growth Management Act nor any other state code mandates approval of development that creates safety hazards. Staff feels that while there may be safety concerns among the project appellants and others,there are no safety hazards associated with this project. Likewise,staff is not aware of any state code that addresses"safety concerns". cc: Mayor Jesse Tanner Sandra Meyer Neil Watts Jay Covington Sue Carlson Elizabeth Higgins Larry Warren Karl Hamilton C:\My Documentslheritage hiils.doc\cor ., ` ' .

The Committee has several concerns, which can be primarily reduced to three transportation and safety issues. 1. The entrance and exit from this plat is a very unusual design which brings three roads together in a very odd intersection. 2. The intersection of 7th and Renton Avenue South is a four-way intersection, with three of the four legs of the intersection having stop signs. The fourth leg, which is a very steep uphill leg does not have a stop sign. The traffic from the plat would have to go through this intersection. 3. The rights-of-way are very narrow on Renton Hill, particularly on Cedar Avenue South and Renton Avenue South. Houses on the hill have been developed without adequate. - garage space, resulting in a large amount.of street parking. The effect is that these two streets are reduced, in many places, to one lane roads in addition to being very steep. These three transportation concerns raise public safety issues. The Committee would like to know what existing City Codes, Rules or Regulations, whether original City Ordinances, or Codes adopted by reference,would apply to these areas. The Committee would also like to know whether or not these various Codes, Rules and Regulations have been applied to this plat and its transportation impacts. • In addition the Committee would like to know whether the Growth Management Act or any other state code mandates approval of development in areas like this where there is concern about public safety and no reasonable means for the city to address the concern or require the developer to mitigate the concern. • We ask that you respond to this request as quickly as possible since the appeal has been pending for some time. :.' 012001 • 1055 South Grady Way-Renton, Washington 98055 - (425) 430-6501 ... ..

The Committee has several concerns, which can be primarily reduced to three transportation and safety issues. 1. The entrance and exit from this plat is a very unusual design which brings three roads together in a very odd intersection. 2. The intersection of 7th and Renton Avenue South is a four-way intersection, with three of the four legs of the intersection having stop signs. The fourth leg, which is a very steep uphill leg does not have a stop sign. The traffic from the plat would have to go through this intersection. 3. The rights-of-way are very narrow on Renton Hill, particularly on Cedar Avenue South and Renton Avenue South. Houses on the hill have been developed without adequate garage space, resulting in a large amount of street parking. The effect is that these two streets are reduced, in many places, to one lane roads in addition to being very steep. These three transportation concerns raise public safety issues. The Committee would like to know what existing City Codes, Rules or Regulations, whether original City Ordinances, or Codes adopted by reference, would apply to these areas. The Committee would also like to know whether or not these various Codes, Rules and Regulations have been applied to this plat and its transportation impacts. In addition the Committee would like to know whether the Growth Management Act or any other state code mandates approval of development in areas like this where there is concern about public safety and no reasonable means for the city to address the concern or require the developer to mitigate the concern. We ask.that you respond to this request as quickly as possible since the appeal has been pending for some time. 111, 901...2001 • 1055 South Grady Way-Renton, Washington 98055 - (425) 430-6501 ,ak . co, This paper contains 50%recycled material,30%post consumer ia?ebruary 26,2001 - - Renton City Council Minutes Page 55 that the City will do everything necessary to make sure that the use of the fan does not have a detrimental impact on the neighborhood. Mr.Dineen stated that it is difficult for the general public to research the City Code and development plans in order to field concerns about potential impacts from proposed neighborhood developments; and he suggested that the Development Services Department develop a checklist to assist lay people in their research of impacts such as fumes,noise,and traffic. Planning/Building/Public Works Department Administrator Gregg Zimmerman explained that projects that are reviewed by the Environmental Review Committee rarely are developed to the extent that the location of mechanical items is already known. Those additions are developed during the design phase and are reviewed upon submission of building plans and application for mechanical and electrical permits. Mr.Zimmerman explained that the exhaust fan would activate when the carbon monoxide level in the garage reaches a certain point. He detailed the acceptable and unacceptable levels of carbon monoxide and its effect on humans. Mr.Zimmerman said that the City is considering hiring a private consultant to assist in thoroughly reviewing the facts and to help in the testing of the carbon monoxide levels.

Butthe record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton Hill residents demonstrates that this - development can be accommodated,although it will affect,but not adversely.(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill. As this office noted at the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents will be right - alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton Hill...That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot be accommodated: The record reflects that it can be accommodated. • In closing,there is no reason to alter or reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal Of the Recommendation to the City Council to:approve the plat. • • Since this office is aware that an appeal,has<alreadr been fled with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original"decision,there.is no.reason to extend the appeal period.

Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill efort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was.---.--. done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be, noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to DCH2O, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated‘that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. = Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are-= 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr. Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than. twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #25: Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was - reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax paying residents who are forced to "adjust"to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building -. moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved.

I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with _ them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. _ The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency_ these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I,realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres'was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. - My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots with fewer homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a 25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations. Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems. All were old and extremely high maintenance. River • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also allowed four new homes to be built and three or four more are in the planning stages to be built on the North side of the pipeline. Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an "oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

Submitted by: Renton Hill Community Association February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Heritage Renton Hill Stopping sight distance exhibit Renton Hearing examiners EXH 20 Request for adding the following information as an addendum to EXH2O (or assigning a new exhibit number to this information). Reason for request: This exhibit was not available for review until the hearing and could not be addressed adequately without a reasonable amount of time to study it. This exhibit is incomplete, as it does not include convergence information or measurements. A great deal of weight was given to this exhibit in the determination of the feasibility of this project, we are requesting a review of exhibit EXH 20 and the admission of the enclosed documents to the project file as an addendum. EXH 20 has one vehicle heading North on Renton Ave. S. There is no need for this driver to stop, as there are no cars shown going South on Renton Ave. S. The convergence point of two cars is the critical piece of information missing in EXH 20.The sight distance problem is not great by the time you reach the crest of Renton Ave. S. (where the vehicle in this exhibit is located), it is prior to the crest for drivers coming both up and going down the hill at this location at the same time. On Saturday February 3, 2001, at 2pm, the following people measured sight distance on Renton Ave. S. Bill Collins, Keith Moberg, Bill Larson and Ruth Larson. Starting at the North property line of 531 Renton Ave. S. we marked, with chalk every 10 feet both North and South. The camera was placed on the end of a length of wood 3.50' long and with the wood placed on the roadbed; pictures were taken at 3' 6" height (the eye height used on exhibit EXH 20 plus one inch from the base of the camera to the lens). Keith Moberg held a 14' board marked in one-foot increments. Bill Larson was the photographer, Bill Collins checked location on the down hill side and Ruth Larson checked location on the up hill side. The first picture was taken 20' apart, 10 feet up the hill and 10 feet down the hill. Every 20 feet (10 up - and 10 down) a picture was taken. The last picture was at taken at 300 feet apart. Bill Larson at the 3'7"height (with the camera) could not see Keith Moberg at all by 280 feet apart. Keith Moberg is 5' 9" tall. A car at the Keith Moberg location and a car at the Bill Larson location would not see each other. If each were traveling 25 miles per hour per hour, according to exhibit 18, it would take 145 feet each to stop. That is 10 feet each more than available. This is the convergence point. While appreciating the fact that Mr. Nelson is a Civil Engineer and much weight must be given to his statements, if his exhibit is not complete then it should not be considered to contain all of the information needed to make a decision on the sight distance/convergence problem on Renton Ave. So. Please place into the file the photographs presented. We are also submitting two overlays of Exhibit EXH 20. Our position is further clarified by placing an overlay at the 300-foot mark on the far right side of this exhibit, lining up the vehicle on the road line (to the right of the 3% mark). This alters the line of sight a great deal and more clearly shows the problem. You can take this further by placing the second overlay, reversed, on the road line at either the 145' mark and/or the 170' line, using a ruler to indicate line of sight from the drivers perspective . This demonstrates the problem with two vehicles converging. The overlay was not altered in any way, nor was the exhibit. Please place into the file the overlays and copy of EXH 20.

Gygi,Attorney Hillis Clark Martin & Peterson 500 Galland Building 1221 Second Avenue Seattle, WA 98101-2925 Applicant: Ryan Fike Bennett Development 9 Lake Bellevue Drive, Suite 100-A Bellevue, WA 98005 Representing City of Renton: Zanetta Fontes,City Attorney Elizabeth Higgins,Development Services 1055 S Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 Ms. Larson, appellant herein, reviewed each item contained in her written appeal of the ERC's Staff Report dated October 17,2000, and explained the reasons for her objections in each case. Particular emphasis was given to Renton Avenue South. Ms. Larson used photos to show the close proximity of telephone poles to the curbs,the narrowness of the street,the dips in the street and the tendency of garbage trucks to drive toward the center of the street. She explained her concerns regarding safety issues when large trucks are using the street considering the narrowness of the street,the steep grade, and the limited sight distances. Becky Lamke, 415 Cedar Ave S, Renton, WA 98055 expressed concern that the number of trips per day per single family household has been underestimated, based on informal surveys of her neighbors. Ms. Lamke questioned exactly what the landscaping would consist of in the 15-foot buffer along the north property boundary. She concluded by stating that the construction vehicles should be required to come onto the site off of Puget Drive. It is not considered safe for busses to come up the hill, so it should not be safe for large trucks to do so. Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner, Development Services, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055 gave an overview of the nature of the project, its current status, and its progress through the ERC. Regarding the reason for the setbacks on Lot#35, Ms. Higgins stated the geotechnical engineer's report commented that the slopes at the rear of this lot are excessive. They recommended that the setback at the rear of Lot#35 be increased from . Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 3 20 to 25 feet in order to further to protect the slope. Using a photograph from the City Archives, she clarified why an exemption to the requirement in the Critical Areas Ordinance that slopes above a certain grade be protected was granted to the project. Ms. Higgins also addressed the issues of groundwater, responsibility for landscaping, regulation of fences, and parks constructed on the property. Ms. Higgins discussed the issue of Metro service on Renton Hill. She also explained the State of Washington Growth Management Act requirements and how the City is required to plan for housing. The City Council has committed to provide as much single family housing as possible and not meet their target with apartments. Regarding the requirement that a note be placed on the face of the plat about former mining activities, Ms. Higgins stated this is the City's way of insuring that a property owner is made aware of a potentially hazardous situation. Mining activity took place throughout the city, and there are very rudimentary maps of where these mine shafts might be.The note on the plat alerts the potential home owner to seek the consultation of a structural engineer and choose the construction method most appropriate for the site. The appeal hearing was adjourned at 12:30 pm.,to be continued on Thursday,November 16 at 9:00 a.m. ******************************** The continued appeal hearing opened on Thursday,November 16 at 9:02 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Kayren Kittrick, Development Services, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, WA 98055 explained her role regarding Land Use Applications and how these applications are reviewed by her office. Ms. Kittrick stated that the Street Maintenance Plan requires that all arterials be evaluated annually and all other streets, which would include Renton Avenue S, be evaluated every two years. Ms. Kittrick explained traffic mitigation fees and how they are reviewed and collected, resources available for street repair, and hauling times as allowed by code. Ms. Kittrick reviewed intersection distances,how they are measured, and under what circumstances intersections should be 110 feet apart vs. 150 feet apart. She also discussed the transportation study provided by the applicant, including levels of service at S 7th Ct and access to Renton Hill overall. Regarding the foundation of Renton Avenue S.,Ms. Kittrick stated that recent borings show four inches of asphalt over crushed rock. On cross examination, Ms. Kittrick responded to questions raised by Ms. Larson in her appeal letter. Ann M. Gygi, attorney representing applicant, Hillis Clark Martin & Peterson, 1221 Second Ave, Seattle,WA 98101-2925 opened by reiterating that in a SEPA appeal it is appellant's burden to establish that the SEPA determination is clearly erroneous. This is a plat application that is based on an adopted comprehensive plan and zoning that slated this property for development at an urban scale. This parcel is among those that the City of Renton legislated to accommodate a certain amount of urban growth under the Growth Management Act. The general impacts associated with the conversion are impacts of the legislative decision. The specific and unique impacts of the plat proposal are what should be the subject of the SEPA consideration at this stage. Mark McGinnis, Geotech Consultants, 13256 NE 20th St. #16, Bellevue, WA 98005 reviewed his education, training and experience as a geotechnical engineer. He summarized what is contained in the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment prepared by his firm regarding coal mines under the site, including risk of excessive settlement, localized subsidence, and mine gas emissions. Mr. McGinnis discussed the mitigation measures recommended in the Geotechnical Report to address the two worked coal mine seams under the property. He stated that it is his professional opinion that the recommended measures will adequately mitigate Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 4 any potential risks associated with the two worked coal seams. Mr. McGinnis described the steep slope associated with Lot#35 in the northeast corner of the site. His firm investigated the slope, looked for slope problems, and did a test pit for exploration in the area to assess soil conditions near the top of the slope. Based on these observations, a 25 foot building setback from the crest of the slope is recommended. In addition to the 25 foot setback, it is recommended that there be no clearing and grading within 10 feet of the top of slope. Larry Hobbs, Transportation Planning and Engineering, Inc.,2223 112th Ave NE, Suite 101, Bellevue, WA 98004 reviewed his background, education and training as a traffic engineer. Mr. Hobbs stated that safety issues were considered as part of the traffic study that was prepared for the project. The city provided the last three years worth of accident data in the area, and it was found that there were no accidents recorded on Renton Hill itself for this period of time. In checking the data for the last five years, it was found that there were three traffic accidents throughout all of Renton Hill. Two of these accidents involved one vehicle backing into another, and the third was a vehicle striking a parked vehicle. There were no injuries or fatalities in any of the reported accidents. The record of reported traffic incidents is one of the main indicators of safety on a street system. Mr. Hobbs stated that it is his opinion that there will not be any increase in traffic accidents in the Renton Hill area as a result of the proposed development. Residents of the area would most likely be aware of anything that may be deficient and would drive accordingly to compensate for that. New residents moving into the area would rapidly gain familiarity with the street system. Jennifer Steig, Peterson Consulting Engineers,4030 Lake Washington Blvd NE, Suite 200, Kirkland, WA 98033 gave a summary of her training, education and experience as a civil engineer. Ms. Steig described the conceptual grading plan her firm prepared for the site. Once grades are set, computer programs to come up with cut and fill volume. Based on the conceptual grading plan, there would be approximately 55,000 cubic yards of cut material and 19,000 cubic yards of fill. The applicant requested that we develop a plan with a closer balance so that all the cut and fill would be used on the site--there would not be any material hauled off the site as a result of grading. The conceptual plan was sent to a company used industry wide that has a computer program which can look at the site as it is graded in the conceptual plan and raise or lower the site in small increments to determine when a balance is reached. This information is used to develop a final grading plan for construction. In doing this, it was found that if the site is raised one foot from the conceptual grading plan,there would be a balance of the cut and fill material on the site. Based on further geotechnical studies, if the unsuitable fill were screened on site, the amount of fill that would need to be hauled off site could be reduced by approximately half. Ms. Steig discussed the number of truck trips that would be required to haul fill off the property based on the number of cubic yards of fill remaining. She explained under what conditions material must be worked so that it will be suitable for use in construction. In closing, Ms. Larson discussed the issues of preservation of vegetation and wildlife,compatibility of the new homes with the neighborhood, and the two crested vertical curves on Renton Ave S that do not meet city, county or state requirements for vertical curve design. Ms. Fontes, in closing, addressed issues raised by the appellant in the course of the hearing and discussed what the evidence has shown and what the process has been in each instance. Ms. Fontes reiterated that despite all the questions raised by the appellant, she has not shown evidence of significant adverse environmental impacts in any of these instances. Therefore,the decision made by the ERC must stand. . Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF - January 25,2001 Page 5 Ms. Larson responded that every question she asked was stated in the ERC's report. She responded to the questions because she felt there was clarification needed. Some of the issues have been clarified,others have not. In closing, Ms. Gygi stated that the applicant concurs with the City's closing arguments. She reviewed some of the issues raised by the appellant. Ms. Gygi summarized by stating that any project will alter the surrounding area. It is unrealistic to expect that there would be no effect from development. The law does not require that all adverse impacts be eliminated. If it did,no change in land use would ever be possible. Ms. Gygi reiterated. that the burden is upon the appellant to prove adverse environmental impacts,which has not been done in this case. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this appeal. There was no one else wishing to speak. The appeal hearing closed at 11:30 a.m. SEPA APPEAL FINDINGS,CONCLUSION&DECISION FINDINGS: 1. The appellant,The Renton Hill Community Association,represented by Ruth Larson,filed an appeal of a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated(DNS-M) issued for a proposed Preliminary Plat that would divide approximately 10.35 acres of R-8 (Residential: 8 units per acre)zoned property into 57 lots. The appeal was filed in a timely manner. 2. In processing the preliminary plat application the City subjected the application to is ordinary SEPA review process. The City, in the course of and as a result of its SEPA review, issued a Determination of Non-Significance- Mitigated for the project. The Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated (DNS-M)was conditioned by the City. 3. The subject site is located near the intersection of Beacon Way SE, S 7th Court and S 7th Street. The property is located immediately across from Philip Arnold Park. 4. The subject site a triangular parcel approximately 1.114 feet by 818 feet by 829 feet. 5. The subject site is approximately 10.35 acres or 450,846 square feet in area. 6. The subject site has rolling and descending terrain with some steeper slopes that were determined to be manmade as part of past mining or quarrying activity. An exemption from steep slope regulations was issued administratively since the steeper slopes are not natural. 7. The ERC imposed five conditions related to erosion control,three conditions imposing mitigation fees for fire, parks and roads,three conditions related to geotechnical issues for building construction/foundation work, subsidence notice due to potential coal mines and setbacks from steep slopes, one condition dealing with the potential discovery of hazardous materials, one dealing with traffic control for construction vehicles and finally, a condition for access across the Seattle Pipeline for emergency, secondary access.

During the course of the public hearing staff noted that the gloss vehicle weight of 26,000 was not intended to vary from that posted on the road signs and should have matched that posted along the road. 9. The appellants objected to the determination. The appellants objected to or raised concerns about: a. Modification of street standards to allow narrower roads in the plat. b. Protection for abutting Falcon Ridge and River Ridge properties. c. Weight limit on Renton Avenue differing from posted standard (that was an error not intended to vary from posted limits). d. Width and emergency access relating to the Pipeline road. e. The steepness and width of Renton Avenue South. f. Exception to Critical Areas Ordinance that permitted grading on previously disturbed slopes. g. The amount of grading and number of heavy truck trips were not fully evaluated for impacts on the community. (the applicant altered the plans to balance the cut and fill and substantially reduce material movements) h. Impacts on River Ridge. i. Air quality impacts of vegetation removal. j. The alteration of the base elevation and its impacts on water. k. The removal of 92%of the trees and retention of 32 trees, if possible. 1. The maintenance of installed landscaping strips and islands. m. Impacts on the deer population that frequents the subject site. n. The manner in which the rezone was adopted. o. The character of the homes. p. The consistency of fencing. q. The impacts of new light on the community. r. The impact of internal pocket parks. s. The impact on the Renton Hill community by this plat. • Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings - File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 7 t. Traffic impacts of new residents and construction vehicles on the existing road surfaces and the community. u. The use of mitigation funding. v. The development does not follow the policies of the City of Renton. 10. The subject site is located near the northeast corner of Renton Hill just where it begins its drop down to Maple Valley and the Cedar River. 11. The majority of property in the vicinity of the subject site is zoned R-8 (Residential; 8 dwelling units per acre). It has been developed with single family homes. The slopes north of and below the subject site are Resource Conservation. 12. Immediately north of the subject site is the River Ridge development that contains 11 lots. The proposed development would share an access roadway that now serves only River Ridge. East of the subject site is Falcon Ridge,and it contains 80 lots. Falcon Ridge is accessed from the east by a private roadway. 13. The subject site is covered by what is probably second or third growth trees and shrubs. As noted,the site has been disturbed by some form of extraction or quarrying in the past. 14. The applicant did an historical survey of the subject site using aerial photographs as well reviewing the permit history of the site. There also were reviews of the mining data for the subject site and vicinity. There were also borings to determine the nature of the soils and to expose potential dumping of hazardous or other materials. The US Geological Survey maps for the area show a mine symbol, although it does not specify the type of mine but it appears it was used as a gravel quarry. 15. An evaluation was made of potential mine hazards. Both the more shallow and deeper mines are located 200 feet to 600 feet deep. It is anticipated that most linear shafts would have subsided over time. Any collapse events in "horizontal"mines would be distributed over those 200 to 600 feet, causing little surface subsidence. The greater potential for dangerous collapses are old airshafts or vertical access shafts. Some of these were filled with jumbled lumber or other debris till it"caught" on the sides of the shaft and then filled. The"caught" materials can decay over time and lead to collapses. In most cases these latter actions cannot be predicted. The geotechnical information and studies have instructions on dealing with these if they are discovered during construction. In addition,there are governmental agencies that deal with such openings,although obviously,an opening occurring can still take parties by surprise. The geotechnical report also has construction methods to make sure homes constructed in this development follow certain prescribed foundation techniques. 16. The applicant and City emphasized stability in dealing with lots near the edge of slope areas. The:only lot affected by steeper slopes is Lot 35 in the northeast corner of the subject site. Lot 35 will have a 25 foot setback for building and a 10 foot setback buffer that will remain undisturbed. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8 17. The Geotechnical information shows that areas that have 15%to 30%slopes are limited and most of the terrain is moderate and the underlying soils are suitable for construction. The ERC imposed conditions to deal with erosion. The professional analysis is that the measures suggested in the geotechnical report and the measures imposed by the ERC should prevent any problems. 18. There are approximately 250 to 300 acres of open space along the Cedar River and the slopes above the river in City ownership or open space. Although a large amount of this property is very steep slopes, there are a developed trail and park located along the river, and there are other level or more gentle areas. To accommodate roads and building pads,most of the vegetation will be removed from the subject site. It would appear that similar clearing probably has occurred for most development on the hill in the past with ornamentals replacing native trees. 19. There will be a loss of over 300 trees of six inches or greater in diameter. This loss of trees and habitat is an unfortunate but foreseeable result of development. Trees and vegetation may be maintained where possible. Open space tracts and ornamental landscaping generally occur as plats are developed and mature. 20. The project was reviewed for compliance with the Critical Areas Ordinance and the land clearing regulations. The exception approved for working on the man-made or altered slopes is not unusual and is a remedy available by code. Natural slopes will not be altered or would require special approvals. 21. The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort. This would have entailed a large number of dump trucks moving the materials to and from the subject site. The applicant further refined their grading plans and found that generally raising the elevation of the subject site by approximately one (1)foot would significantly reduce the needed trips. This would mean utilizing local materials on site in what is termed a "balanced cut and fill." There would still be export of unsuitable materials or debris that has been dumped on the subject site. It is not anticipated that raising the site by approximately one foot would create any problems with erosion or stability. The number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips. The trucks would meet load limit requirements of the City. While this is not a small number of trips, it is also not unusual where development is occurring, including in residential areas and the City urges that this is generally not a SEPA impact. 22. The existing public roads serving the subject site do not meet current standards. Similar undersized or steep roads serve other older or hilly areas of the City including roads serving areas west of Rainier. At the same time,these older roads serve their neighborhoods or communities. Renton Avenue seems to serve the existing population, and as new residents have moved to Renton Hill they have adjusted to the constraints and limitations. This does not discount the experiences of current residents and that fact that extra care seems necessary to negotiate the roadways and deal with events like snow and ice.-.-The fact is,transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours. It appears that there may be an' approximately 0.2 second delay in wait time at traffic lights. • Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF - January 25, 2001 Page 9 23. The proposed intersection at SE 7th Court and the subject proposal's entry road will meet City standards for sight distance and angles. Anytime a new intersection is created residents have to accommodate the changes in traffic flow. 24. Renton Avenue South is approximately 26 feet wide and has an approximately 23 foot 2 inch driving surface. There is a 5 inch drop to the gutter. Both telephone poles and hydrants are located close to the right-of-way and driving surface. There are some dips in the road and the crest apparently creates difficult sight problems with traffic driving up and down the hill according the residents. The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position,the view is not significantly impaired. 25. A study of accident history showed no reported accidents during the last three years and three(3) accidents throughout Renton Hill during the last five years. They appeared to be minor accidents resulting in limited property damage but no personal injuries. Anecdotal evidence suggests that there have been a number of"near-miss" and minor accidents but that residents may not have reported some accidents. The assumption then would have to be that they were not major accidents if they remained unreported. 26. The evidence does suggest that curbs, gutters and sidewalks improve safety but there are areas along what would be the commute route where this is not possible. Limiting speed and driver caution serve to control conflicts. SEPA does not ask an applicant to rectify existing problems, whether traffic or storm water problems, but requires that impacts be appropriately disclosed. 27. The appellant challenged the traffic generation numbers used by the applicant. Those numbers estimate that each single family home generates approximately 9.55 trips. The 57 homes would generate 544.35 trips per day. The estimates also predict that approximately ten percent(10%)of the total trips would occur during each of the peak commuting times or approximately 55 trips. No basis for the challenge was provided. 28. The development, if approved in full, would add 57 homes to an existing inventory of approximately 200 homes, or an approximately 25% increase. There has been some infilling in the last few years,also adding to the inventory. At the same time,some homes were lost to the last expansion and .. straightening of I-405. The traffic report and City analysis demonstrate that while the roads are not standard,they have sufficient capacity to handle the additional traffic. There will be impacts,but they are not considered untoward. The LOS for the intersections on the hill will not change as a result of the development. 29. Intersection spacing was found to be able to meet standards for the new intersection,which will be controlled by a stop sign. 30. LOS of A and B exist for the critical intersections and those will not be changed by the development of the subject site, although as indicated, wait times may increase by a fraction of a second. 31.. Street maintenance is accomplished as needed. No specific improvements outside the boundaries of the plat will occur other than some possible modification to the intersection at Beacon and 7th. , Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 10 32. The City works with applicants to develop a construction management plan to deal with traffic,routes and times in order to control access by heavy trucks. This would be done in this case as well. 33. There is an approximately 30 foot wide strip of land between the proposed development and River Ridge,the residential site adjacent to the subject site. Fences are not generally an environmental issue. Setbacks between newer single family and existing single family uses is also not considered a SEPA issue. The project will be providing the required setbacks, and in some instances it intends to provide larger than required setbacks. Larger setbacks than code provides are not required(minimum impacts that would occur with any development and not untoward in any fashion). The additional light and glare created by the new homes is not expected to be out of the ordinary for single family communities. It is not particularly reviewed for single family development. 34. While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. 35. The proposed density of 6.78 is in the midrange permitted in the R-8 Zone. The R-8 Zone permits a density of between 5 and 8 single family units per acre. 36. There is an approximately 30 foot wide strip of land between the proposed development and Falcon Ridge,the other residential site adjacent to the subject site. 37. Mitigation fees for transportation are distributed after the City Council determines needs in its six year cycle. Maintenance is done as needed. 38. Construction activity and hauling is governed by code provisions limiting the impact on rush hour traffic and limiting it, generally,to daylight hours. In addition,there is the construction management plan. Trucks doing hauling are monitored and "weight tickets" and reports are required. Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock. The City found it acceptable for heavy loads. It currently serves large garbage trucks and fire trucks. 39. The proposed reduction in street width from 50 feet to 42 feet for new roads within the plat boundaries is a code compliance issue and should not generally affect SEPA compliance. 40. The question of who builds the homes and what would be their quality is not a SEPA issue. The City does not control design of single family development nor who may develop such homes if they meet code standards. 41. The applicant and City, in response to the appeal, both noted that asking a series of questions, particularly if the answers are contained in existing studies or covered by existing regulations does not provide a sufficient basis for overturning a SEPA decision. 42. All of the Findings and Conclusions of the companion Plat Report are incorporated into this report by reference. • Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 11 CONCLUSIONS: 1. The decision of the governmental agency acting as the responsible official is entitled to substantial weight. Therefore, the determination of the Environmental Review Committee (ERC),the city's responsible official, is entitled to be maintained unless the appellant clearly demonstrates that the determination was in error. 2. The Determination of Non-Significance in this case is entitled to substantial weight and will not be reversed or modified unless it can be found that the decision is "clearly erroneous." (Hayden v. Port Townsend, 93 Wn 2nd 870, 880; 1980). The court in citing Norway Hill Preservation and Protection Association v. King County Council, 87 Wn 2d 267,274; 1976, stated: "A finding is'clearly erroneous' when, although there is evidence to support it,the reviewing court on the entire evidence is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." Therefore,the determination of the ERC will not be modified or reversed if it can meet the above test. For reasons enumerated below,the decision of the ERC is affirmed. 3. The clearly erroneous test has generally been applied when an action results in a DNS,since the test is less demanding on the appellant. The reason is that SEPA requires a thorough examination of the environmental consequences of an action. The courts have,therefore, made it easier to reverse a DNS. A second test,the "arbitrary and capricious" test is generally applied when a determination of significance(DS) is issued.In this second test an appellant would have to show that the decision clearly flies in the face of reason since a DS is more protective of the environment since it results in the preparation of a full disclosure document, an Environmental Impact Statement. 4. An action is determined to have a significant adverse impact on the quality of the environment if more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment is a reasonable probability.(Norway, at 278). Since the Court spoke in Norway, WAC 197-11-794 has been adopted, it defines "significant"as follows: a: Significant. (1) "Significant" as used in SEPA means a reasonable likelihood of more than a moderate adverse impact on environmental quality. b. (2) Significance involves context and intensity...Intensity depends on the magnitude and duration of an impact....The severity of the impact should be weighed along with the likelihood of its occurrence. An impact may be significant if its chance of occurrence is not great, but the resulting environmental impact would be severe if it occurred. Also redefined since the Norway decision was the term "probable." c. Probable. "Probable"means likely or reasonably likely to occur, ... Probable is used to distinguish likely impacts from those that merely have a possibility of occurring,but are remote or speculative. (WAC 197-11-782). 5. . Impacts also include reasonably related and foreseeable direct and indirect impacts including short- term and long-term effects. (WAC 197-11-060(4)(c)). Impacts include those effects resulting from growth caused by a proposal,as well as the likelihood that the present proposal will serve as precedent , • Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 12 for future actions. (WAC 197-11-060(4)(d)). 6. Environmental impact is also related to the location. A development,whether an office building or a single family development, may or may not create impact depending on the existing surroundings. 7. There is no question that there will be changes in the neighborhood and there may definitely be inconvenience, particularly during construction. There will be clear changes to the subject site. But these changes do not necessarily rise to the level of impact mandated by SEPA to require the preparation of an EIS. The development will not significantly alter the character of the community. It will be single family in character,just like the surrounding development. Adding additional single family homes to.the existing single family community is not dramatic. It will not trigger changes to other undeveloped or low density sites and will not create any precedents generating calls for changes to the residential zoning already governing the area. Both the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning designated the area for urban densities. In addition,while additional traffic will flow through the main commute route into downtown Renton,the proposed community is located on the edge of the community, not in the midst of the existing community,and its overall impacts will not be very significant. 8. Traffic seems to be a key issue presented by the appellant,and traffic's associated issues such as narrow and steep roads,heavy construction traffic and stopping distance and sight distance on the hill and at the new intersection. These are legitimate concerns, but the evidence does not provide a basis for altering the ERC's decision. They will not have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. The development will permanently add more traffic of a kind that traffic analysis shows the streets currently handle without appreciably increasing commute times,overloading roads or increasing conflicts significantly in terms of SEPA impacts that would require more detailed information than has been prepared in the various technical studies reviewed by the ERC. It will not have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. The development will generate impacts similar to those that now exist. 9. There definitely will be more traffic. That occurs anytime new development occurs. The streets leaving the hill are definitely steep and narrow. The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated. 10. The most pronounced change will be the removal of the forest cover on the ten acres. This acreage has been cleared in the past and the site topography altered by what appears to have been quarrying activity. But clearing of trees alone is not sufficient to trigger the preparation of an EIS. Nothing in record suggests that this alone will create such a significant impact on the quality of the environment that additional information is needed. This acreage needs to be looked at in the context of the adjacent 200 to 300 acres of forest and habitat. It also needs to be looked at in terms of surrounding uses. The areas around the site are mostly urban and developed with single family homes such as proposed,for the subject site. There is already a park located immediately across from the site. While animals will probably be displaced, there appears to be sufficient open space immediately adjacent to the site to provide habitat. Nothing in the record demonstrates the any large species or threatened species-: permanently inhabit the subject site. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings - File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 13 11. Construction impacts will be irritating to those who live near the subject site and construction traffic will have impacts on the community as a whole,but they are not the type of impacts which have more than a short-lived impact and they are not the types of impacts that would throw the ERC's decision into doubt. In addition,code provides for construction management plans, and there remains the possibility that the pipeline road could serve some construction uses. In addition,the applicant has substantially reduced the amount of materials that would.need to be transported either to or from the subject site. This will substantially reduce the originally anticipated truck traffic. 12. While there will be a series of impacts as there are in any development,they do not add up in a quantifiable manner to the type of impacts or long term precedents that result in more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. Issues such as quality or character of development, fencing, setback standards in excess of those required,code permitted exceptions to slope clearing or roadway width are not appropriately SEPA issues. Access to the site across the pipeline road is,a condition of development,and if it were not granted,that would have a profound affect on the proposal and is not a SEPA issue. The creation of internal parks and open space and maintenance are not SEPA issues. The manner of adoption of the reclassification of the site is not a SEPA issue. 13. The reviewing body should not substitute its judgment for that of the original body with expertise in the matter, unless the reviewing body has the firm conviction that a mistake has been made. This office was not left with a firm conviction that the ERC made a mistake. There was a thorough review of geotechnical information that showed the site could be developed. There were two traffic reports, including slope analysis of sight distance issues,that demonstrated the current roads, while not meeting current standards have capacity for the additional traffic anticipated. - 14. The appealing party has a burden that was not met in the instant case. The decision of the ERC must be affirmed. DECISION: The decision of the ERC is affirmed. MINUTES: PRELIMINARY PLAT The following minutes are a summary of the November 16 and December 12,2000 preliminary plat hearing. The legal record is recorded on tape. The hearing opened on Thursday,November 16 at 11:35 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh"floor of the Renton City Hall. Because of time constraints,Mr. Mehlhaff,Ms. Liston, Mr. Giuliani, Mr.Ellis,Ms. Fulfer, Ms. Herman, Ms. Lamke, and Mr. Fulfer testified regarding the preliminary plat during the appeal portion of the hearing. Their comments appear later in the minutes.

Bennett Development has proposed subdivision of an approximately 450,846 square feet(10.35 acre)property into 57 lots suitable for detached, single family houses. The triangular-shaped property is located on Renton Hill, southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way S with SE 7th Ct, Jones Ave S,and South 7th St. Although Renton Hill is a well established neighborhood, land abutting the proposed project to the north has been developed fairly recently into River Ridge, an eleven lot subdivision. Falcon Ridge,a large(80 lot)subdivision, lies to the southeast. Philip Arnold Park is adjacent to the southwest. The Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline, which is used occasionally for overflow parking from the park,separates the park from the proposed development property. The zoning designation for the property is R-8. Most of Renton Hill is zoned R-8 except for a strip of land on the west side above I-405 which is zoned R-10. Access would be from a new public street that would intersect with SE 7th Ct. The new street would terminate in a cul-de-sac. An emergency-only access would connect the cul-de-sac with the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline. A modification from street standards has been requested to reduce the width of the public right-of-way from 50 feet to 42 feet. This modification has been approved by the director of the Development Services Department. It would not reduce the pavement width,only the right-of-way width,and would not affect the ability to have sidewalks in the development. Ms Higgins continued by stating that the Environmental Review Committee(ERC) issued a Determination of Non-Significance- Mitigated on October 17,200. One appeal was filed prior to the close of the appeal period. The ERC placed several mitigating measures on the project. The first four relate to erosion control on the project and are best management practices as required by the City. The applicant shall pay applicable Transportation, Fire and Parks mitigation fees. The applicant shall follow the recommendations of the Geotechnical engineers as they pertain to site development and building construction. A note shall be placed on the face of the plat prior to recording stating that a known potential for ground subsidence exists in therarea and-that building plans shall be designed in consultation with a structural engineer and shall conform to the recommendations of the Geotech report. The rear setback at the lot located in the northeast corner of the property, Lot#35, shall be increased to 25 feet from 20 feet. A note shall be placed on the title of the lot prohibiting building construction within 25 feet of the of the rear property boundary and prohibit land clearing Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 15 within 10 feet of the rear property line. The applicant shall ensure that all construction debris and discarded items are excavated from the site and construction is ceased immediately,followed by notification of the City of Renton Development Services Division within 24 hours, should hazardous material be discovered during the removal. The Construction Traffic Control Plan shall include a condition that the construction vehicles in excess of 20,000 gvw associated with the project would be prohibited from operating on Renton Hill during a.m.and p.m.peak traffic hours as identified in the traffic report. The applicant shall obtain an access permit in order to use the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement for a secondary, emergency only access. The permit shall be obtained prior to building permits. Ms.Higgins described the property and discussed how the proposal meets the various requirements of the Preliminary Plat Criteria. The proposed project meets the first objective of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element by providing new housing in what up to now has been underutilized land. It also provides a greater use of urban services and infrastructure. The proposed project would meet the policy of meeting net density levels by providing density of 6.86 dwelling units per acre. The lots are proposed at an average size of 5,350 square feet. The range of lot sizes is 4,504 to 8,318 square feet. Both the Development Standards and the Comprehensive Plan polices limit the height of building to two stories in the R-8 zone. The question of transportation and pedestrian connections between neighborhoods is difficult on Renton Hill due to its situation of being isolated from the rest of the city and having limited access. There will be pedestrian connections throughout the neighborhood from new sidewalks that are going to be added and the Cedar River Pipeline. Three areas in the proposed site plan in the proximity of the entryway are going to be set aside as commonly held open spaces. It is not anticipated that the vegetation will be retained,but they will be landscaped. Staff recommends that a landscape plan be submitted to Development Services for review prior to building permits. The Comprehensive Plan included a forecast of Renton's traffic increase for a twenty year period. In the plan, it was estimated that there would be a 52% increase in traffic in Renton between 1990 and 2010. The estimated traffic increase on Cedar and Renton Avenues on Renton Hill would be approximately 25%from the proposed project. This appears to be consistent with projected city-wide traffic volume increases. Ms.Higgins discussed how the project meets the Housing Mandates in the Comprehensive Plan. The Growth Management Act requires the City to plan how it will accommodate its share of the projected population growth. The projected population growth for a 20 year period is determined by the Puget Sound Regional Council,and it was distributed to all cities and counties in the Puget Sound region. The Comprehensive Plan has to address how the City will provide housing for all economic segments of the City's population,and delineates the strategies for doing that. Ms Higgins reviewed some of the policies of the Housing Element and explained how they are met by the proposal. Ms.Higgins continued by reviewing how the proposal meets the Environmental Element of the Comprehensive Plan. Some of the policies that staff felt were met by the proposed project are: minimizing erosion and sedimentation by requiring appropriate construction techniques; implementing surface water management systems which protect natural features; promoting the return of precipitation to the soil at natural rates near__ where it falls through the use of detention ponds,grassy swales, and infiltration; promoting development.design which minimizes impermeable surface coverage; and managing the cumulative effects of storm water through a combination of engineering and preservation of natural systems. Slopes on the property were probably created by surface mining activity, and are therefore exempt from the Critical Areas Ordinance. The stormwater control system would provide adequate protection of the City's water resource. The applicant has estimated that approximately 389 trees sized 6 inches in diameter and greater Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 16 and of various types would be removed from the property for construction. The applicant must adhere to the requirements of the Forest Practices Act. There are several areas in the project that are going to be preserved as "landscape tracts." The proposed project would meet all of the underlying zoning standards for the R-8 zone. The front, rear, and side setback lines indicated on the Preliminary Plat plan meet the minimum setback requirements for the R-8 zone. The maximum building coverage in the R-8 zone is 50% of lots 5,000 square feet or smaller and 35% of, or 2,500 square feet on, lots larger than 5,000 square feet. Compliance with the building coverage regulations would be a requirement of the building permit process. Ms. Higgins next reviewed the proposal's compliance with the subdivision regulations. All lots created by the subdivision would result in legal building lots according to the regulations for the R-8 zone. All parcels must have access established to a public road,which would occur by either directly off the public roads that would be built or from the two private roads or driveway that would be placed on the property. Side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines--they would be in this project. All lot corners at intersections would have a radius of a minimum of 15 feet. Police and Fire have indicated they have sufficient resources to furnish services. The Parks and Recreation Department has also concurred that they could provide service. Renton School District has stated that new students, estimated to be approximately 25,could be accommodated in Talbot Hill Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School, and Renton Senior High School. The School District further requested that the existing school busses be allowed to continue their route through the area,which would be allowed. The conceptual stormwater plan has been accepted by the Plan Review Division,as have the conceptual water and sanitary sewer plan. Staff recommends approval of the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat subject to the following conditions: (1)that the applicant comply with the ERC Mitigation Measures as they have been amended, (2)that all landscape tract areas,with the exception of the 5,402 square foot tract located at the entry,the private"park", and the landscape area adjacent to the storm pond be incorporated into lots already proposed, and(3) commonly held open space areas shall be enhanced prior to occupancy with landscaping including mixed deciduous and evergreen trees and plantings of native shrubs and groundcover,and the applicant shall submit a landscape plan to the Development Services Department for approval. An additional condition would be that a homeowners'association be established and that one of the requirements be that they would be responsible for maintaining the private stormwater system and the commonly held landscape area, including the 15 foot buffers. The Examiner stated that he will schedule an evening hearing to conclude this matter in order to accommodate those who have to leave due to prior commitments. The various parties will be notified of the date and time of the evening hearing. The hearing closed at 12:40 p.m. ********************************** The hearing opened on Tuesday, December 12, 2000, at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Ms. Higgins gave a brief review of the project based on the Staff Report,which was presented at the hearing on December 16. Ms.Higgins stated that staff has added a recommendation which was not presented at the last hearing,that a Hold Harmless Agreement shall be recorded that indemnifies the City of Renton from any damage resulting from subsidence that may occur due to previous subsurface mining activities. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 17 Mr. Fike presented a timeline explaining how the design for the project developed. In March of 1999 Renton School District selected Bennett Development as the purchasers. In September 1999 the mandatory pre- application meeting was held with the City. At that time plans for a 69-lot subdivision were submitted, designed around access from Beacon Way S. It was subsequently determined that Beacon Way S could not be accessed off of, since it is an easement owned by the City of Seattle and they do not want it used as a public right-of-way. In January of 2000,another pre-application meeting was held with the City of Renton and a new design for the project was submitted,based on input from community groups and the Cities of Renton and Seattle. This new design eliminated the Beacon Way access and showed access off of S 7th Ct. A stub road that would cross over the pipeline and go into Philip Arnold Park was included. The City of Renton determined that the stub road was not needed. A design was subsequently developed showing a buffer setback along the north border of the property In April of 2000 the developer sent a submittal package to Renton Hill community leaders showing them what was going to be submitted to the City of Renton. This showed a 56-lot subdivision. In May,the City of Renton deemed the application complete, but asked that the access road across the pipeline be removed. With the removal of the access road,the project went from 56 lots to 57. The City also asked the developer to do additional traffic counts. A three-week traffic study was done during the summer which took into consideration increased traffic from sports activities held in the area. Mr. Fike submitted a study which was done by a wildlife biologist in the period since the last hearing. The report shows that there are deer on the property;however,there were no signs of deer nesting there. An eagle that nests on the south tip of Mercer Island uses the Cedar River as a fishing ground. This may be the eagle that is seen over the Cedar River and approaching the property. There are no signs of an eagle nesting on the property. The wildlife report shows that the project has minimal, if any,wildlife assessments. Regarding the pipeline easement,Mr. Fike explained that the City of Seattle views pipeline usage as a privilege. In order to be good neighbors with the City of Renton, Seattle overlooks things such as possibly driving trucks over the pipeline rather than through the neighborhood, and school buses using the pipeline. The City of Seattle will only issue Conditional Use Permits for the pipeline. The developer has a verbal agreement with Seattle that they will be able to have emergency vehicle access on the pipeline. Ms Higgins entered an original plat map which shows the entry to River Ridge as it was proposed,crossing the School District property,then intersecting the pipeline. A letter in the files from the City of Renton's Utilities Systems Manager at the time to the Real Property Division of the Seattle Water Department explains why the entryway to River Ridge was moved into the present position, and shows further evidence that the Seattle Public Utilities does not want the pipeline to be used for general traffic. John Nelson, Peterson Consulting Engineering,4030 Lake Washington Blvd NE, Suite 200,Kirkland, WA 98033 explained what sight distance is and what kinds there are, using a sight distances drawing. Using charts and a topographic map, he explained stopping sight distance and how it is determined for different types of vehicles and several actual road slopes in the Renton Hill Area. Mr.Nelson stated that as a result of his __ analysis and actually driving the roads in question,he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Larry Hobbs, Transportation Planning and Engineering,Inc.,2223 112th Avenue NE, Suite 101, Bellevue, WA 98004 stated that typically intersections are made with three or four legs; however,five-legged intersections do exist. All of the legs of the intersection are stop controlled. There are no records of any accidents at the - intersection over the past five years. There is no reason to believe this intersection does not operate safely.and . .p .. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 18 adequately. There is enough capacity in the intersection to handle the traffic that is there now, and the future development. The intersection itself is relatively flat. Sight distance criteria does not come into effect at the intersection, since all vehicles must stop. Ms. Higgins clarified the Zoning Code as it relates to the project. In the R-8 Zone,the City requests that a developer try to have at least five units per net acre,with a maximum of eight units per net acre. If for some reason a developer chooses not to develop to the maximum density, or if they are trying to develop below the minimum density,the City requests that the developer demonstrate that future lots could be developed on the property. The City asks for a technique called shadow platting which would create hypothetical lots that would have the proper setbacks and be conforming lots given the requirement of that zone so that in the future those lots could be developed. Mark Mehlhaff, 532 Grant Ave S, Renton, WA 98055 addressed the issue of road safety on Renton Avenue S. Many drivers tend to use excessive speed going up the hill because of the steepness of the grade. This, combined.with limited sight distances and cars parked on the side of the street,creates a dangerous situation. Mr.Mehlhaff asked why Puget Drive and the pipeline cannot be opened up for use of construction vehicles and general traffic to alleviate the congested conditions on Renton Avenue S and Cedar Avenue. Nancy Liston, 1518 Beacon Way S,Renton,WA 98055 spoke to the issues of tranquility and quality of life on Renton Hill. Ms. Liston expressed concern that the tranquility of the area would be greatly impacted by the increased traffic, noise,dirt and dust generated by the large trucks and construction equipment . She stated that the streets and parks on the hill were never intended for the increased number of vehicles and people who will be occupying 57 homes. Ms. Liston also discussed the issue of intersection safety. She has witnessed people not obeying the stop signs,and has seen many near-misses. Ms. Liston also expressed concern about deer crossing the street,particularly at night,and the safety of bicyclists on the streets. John Giuliani, 1400 South 7th Street, Renton, WA stated that the new exit off of Renton Hill has no bearing on the traffic on Renton Avenue, since it is necessary to travel on Renton Avenue to get to the new exit. Mr. Giuliani further stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. Quentin Ellis,715 High Ave S., Renton, WA 98055 stated that there have been a lot of sophisticated studies made by the City and others regarding this project,but it all boils down to one word--infrastructure. The infrastructure that has to be maintained is not there. He cited a newspaper article regarding the Habitat program's plan to build low income housing on a ten acre parcel in Snoqualmie Ridge. They are only proposing to build 50 houses on those ten acres. This proposed project plans to build 57 homes in an area with only one street that is only 23.6 feet wide, as opposed to the normal 40 to 50 foot width. He expressed concern about the mine shafts in the area and the possibility of sink holes developing with the increased traffic on- Renton Avenue S. Mr. Ellis challenged Bennett Development's traffic engineer to substantiate his statement that there would not be an increase in the number of accidents on Renton Hill. He questioned how, considering the 25% increase in traffic anticipated, the engineer could make that statement. Wendy Fulfer, 1729 SE 7th Ct, Renton, WA 98055 stated she lives in River Ridge. The intersection where she comes out of her development is already a five-way intersection. Adding another street would only add to the difficult situation at the intersection. Ms. Fulfer added that she personally makes eight to ten trips off the hill • Tillo ninary Plat Hearings 0-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Kpressed concern about the deer and other wildlife in the area, including nesting eagles, if the )ped. mines. they are 711 Jones Ave S,Renton, WA 98055 stated that the contractor of River Ridge had the to make iId 23 homes.

The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter. 5. The subject site is located near the intersection of Beacon Way SE, S 7th Court and S 7th Street. The property is located immediately across from Philip Arnold Park. 6. The subject site a triangular parcel approximately 1.114 feet by 818 feet by 829 feet. 7. The subject site is approximately 10.35 acres or 450,846 square feet in area. 8. The subject site has rolling terrain but has steeper slopes along the northeast corner of the site. There are also some steeper slopes on the interior of the subject site that were determined to be manmade as part of past mining or quarrying activity. An exemption from steep slope regulations was issued administratively since the steeper slopes are not natural. 9. Although the slopes are not regulated by the Land Clearing and other development regulations,the ERC imposed a series of conditions to control erosion and deal with geotechnical issues. The subject site is located within Aquifer Protection Area 2. 10. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1861 enacted in February 1961. 11. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family-8 dwelling units/acre). It received this designation in June 1993. 12. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of single family uses. 13. The subject site is vacant. It currently is owned by the Renton School District but the applicant has an option to purchase the property. 14. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into 57 single family lots. There would also be tracts for storm water detention and open space. Staff has recommended that most of these tracts be incorporated into adjacent lots to minimize potential maintenance issues. 15. The development of the subject site would require tree removal. Approximately 389 trees of 6 inches or greater diameter would be removed to allow for the construction of roads, building pads and storm drainage systems. A Class IV permit will be required to convert forest land to residential purposes. The applicant has indicated an intention to save some trees near the detention pond and property,;. entrance if grading work permits. 16. The lots range in size from 4,504 square feet to approximately 8,318 square feet. Staff estimates that the average lot size would be approximately 5,350 square feet. The minimum lot size permitted in the R-8 zone is 4,500 square feet. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 24 17. The Beacon Way Seattle Pipeline Road runs in a southeast to northwest diagonal along the southwest angle of the subject site. It connects to Puget Drive SE and Royal Hills Drive SE on the east. The roadway is not a public roadway and has a gated barricade to prevent through traffic. Philip Arnold Park is located on the southwest side of that roadway. The road does provide access to Philip Arnold Park from the east. School buses also use this road approaching from the east, and a school bus stop is located east of the barricade. School buses do not negotiate the steep hills from the I-405 side of Renton Hill. 18. Apparently, the pipeline road was open as a through-street in the past but was closed to reduce traffic passing across Renton Hill and down the steep roadways east of I-405. This also coincided with the then limitation of only one crossing of I-405 that also crossed railroad tracks that could totally block access to the hill. Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings are elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. 19. The proposed layout would create a looped roadway in the interior of the plat with a cul-de-sac road providing access to the southeast corner of the subject site. A gated, emergency access connection would be installed between the dead end cul-de-sac and the Seattle Pipeline roadway, with Seattle's permission. 20. The proposed roadways would be 42 feet wide instead of the standard 50 feet, since the applicant requested an administrative modification to reduce width,which was approved. Road dimensions are determined by the Director administratively. 21. The lots would be located along the perimeter of the triangular shaped parcel as well as in the interior of the loop. The interior block would contain 13 single family lots as well as a"park"tract. 22. Eight lots would be served by either pipe stem or private roadways. Proposed Lots 14, 15, 16 and 17 would be served by private access easement or roads. Similarly,Proposed Lots 20, 21 and 22 would be served by private access roadway. Proposed Lot 35 would be located on a pipe stem driveway. 23. In order to prepare the site for the building pads and the new roads,the applicant will clear most of the vegetation from the site. Some trees may be preserved near the detention system. The slopes adjacent to Proposed Lot 35 would remain undisturbed,since there are steeper slopes that will be protected. 24. The applicant proposes open space and the storm water detention pond at the entrance to the plat. The road will pass through this open space. As the roadway splits to form the loop roadway,a small park will be located on the inside of the "Y" in the road. The applicant has proposed three triangular landscaped areas along the pipeline road to fill in between rectangular lots. Since the pipeline road runs at an angle,creating rectangular lots required these open space areas. As noted, staff recommended that these areas be incorporated into the adjacent lots to avoid maintenance problems. 25.. Development of 57 single family homes will generate approximately 545 vehicle trips per day(based on approximately 9.55 trips per dwelling). It is anticipated that approximately 10% of the traffic trips will occur at each of the morning and evening peak hours. Staff has also estimated that the 57 homes will increase traffic on Renton Hill by approximately 25 percent. This is based on the fact that there • 4` Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 25 are approximately 200 homes on the hill currently. The ERC imposed mitigation measures for fee generation. Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent,and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. 26. The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site,Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill,Cedar and S 3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. The LOS for the first two intersections will remain at B,while the latter two intersections would remain at LOS A. 27. An analysis of historical traffic accidents showed only three minor accidents and no accidents resulting in injuries. Residents report that there have been a number of"near-misses" and residents living along Renton and Cedar must exercise diligence in using the driveways. 28. The width and slopes of Renton Avenue and Cedar and the other roads serving the subject site from downtown Renton,the only open access to the hill, do not meet current development standards. At the same time, staff reports that these roads have capacity to handle additional traffic and that these roads can also safely handle the additional traffic. Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. 29. The development of the subject site will generate approximately 25 school age children. These students would be spread among the different grades of the Renton School District. 30. The City will provide sanitary sewer service and domestic water. 31. The ERC imposed additional storm water detention requirements due to the topography and location of the subject site. The proposal will have to comply with the newest King County requirements. Staff reports that the conceptual drainage plan appears to adequately serve the subject site. Staff recommended a homeowners association be required to maintain the detention system. 32. While traffic and transportation issues were a main concern of the neighbors,the Transportation Division did not appear at the public hearing. Questions were handled by other planning and development staff. 33. In addition to the steep slopes along the northeast margins of the subject site,the subject site is located over old, abandoned coal mine tunnels and other workings. Old records and maps were also reviewed. The property was surveyed and inspected and did not show any evidence of mines or shafts. It does appear that the site was a quarry at one time. There are disturbed soils and slopes. A geotechnical analysis provides methods for preventing foundations from being affected if there should be ------ subsidence. The studies also had other suggestions for dealing with the subject site, but indicated that there should not be any problems evident at the surface. Apparently,there have been incidents on the hill of subsidence in the past. The geotechnical information shows that the soils can bear development. The City did recommend that the applicant execute a "hold harmless" agreement regarding the coal mines in case some problems were to arise. • Heritage Renton Hill a Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 26 34. In order to develop the subject site, the applicant will be excavating and filling the subject site. Originally,the applicant was going to export and import materials to level the site. The applicant proposes to alter those plans and do a balanced cut and fill. This will reduce the amount of materials that need to be transported to or from the subject site, reducing the number of truck trips substantially. • 35. Development of the subject site will not change the single family character of the area but will generate additional population and traffic as well as other attendant changes more people bring to an area. 36. The homeowners would be required to maintain the open space tracts at the entrance and the park area. 37. All of the Findings and Conclusions of the companion SEPA Appeal Report are incorporated into this report by reference. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The public interest in approving a preliminary plat depends on balancing a variety of interests. The City is bound by the Growth Management Act and has determined the appropriate density under that act for R-8 Districts is between 5 and 8 dwelling units per acre. For this parcel with a net site area of 8.31 acres,the 57 homes yields a density of 6.86 dwelling units per acre. At the same time,the increase in traffic projected for this project is approximately 25 percent over current traffic. This is not an issue that merely equates to LOS and technical issues. This means approximately 550 additional trips will be traveling up and down very steep,narrow roads. Staff noted that the Comprehensive-Plan forecast a growth of 52 percent, but those projections would clearly have a lot of that traffic directed efficiently to arterial streets and not narrow streets with single family homes located on very steep streets. These narrow roads serve as collector arterials, but are in no way equal in width or slope to roads that would generally serve that purpose. Renton and Cedar and the streets nearest the subject site are local residential access streets. In fact,they are substandard streets in both width and slope angle. Five hundred additional trips per day is a substantial impact on the homes along the route from the subject site to the downtown area. The public interest sought to be served by approving a plat is not solely served by providing additional housing that meets density standards and growth management standards that do not consider the neighborhood characteristics, and particularly the street characteristics. The public interest is served when one balances density with the impacts of development on other homes and their residents. Engineering design standards to not measure or balance these impacts. They clinically decide that a certain pavement width is adequate to accommodate any additional 500 trips per day,without weighing the affects on adjacent residents. The number of trips will balloon from approximately 2,000 trips per day to 2,500 on Renton and Cedar. Similarly, engineering values on sight distance over the crest of a hill cannot discount the neighbors evidence of"near-miss" accidents as vehicles attempt to avoid each other when negotiating the steep, narrow streets. The engineering numbers do not necessarily account for slowed reaction time of elderly drivers or the impatience of teenage drivers. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings- File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF --- January 25,2001 Page 27 Therefore, it seems that balancing the demands of growth management with the impacts on the residents along the commute route requires reducing the scale or scope of the project and the density of that project. The Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan both provide a range. While it has been generally the case that the density should be as great as possible to meet the housing demands,there may be appropriate times when that density should be reduced modestly to effectuate a balancing of interests. While any reduction will be modest, it still would help to ameliorate the impacts on the existing community. Scaling the plat back to 50 homes would provide a density of 6.02 dwelling units per acre. This falls within the permissible range of 5 to 8 found in the regulations but reduces the impacts. There would be approximately 50 less vehicle trips and while,not a substantial amount, it would go to lessen the impacts on the residential homes along the route and reduce the potential for vehicle conflicts somewhat. Reducing the density of this plat will reduce the untoward impacts on the existing residents. 2. The applicant will probably be heard to argue that the SEPA review did not warrant this reduction and that no significant impacts having more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment were found. "Significance" in terms of SEPA and whether it amounts to EIS threshold "significance" is entirely different than the localized but very consequential impacts of 500 to 600 additional vehicle trips on a local,residential street. Just because an issue is not so large or significant to trigger the need for EIS preparation does not mean it does have an impact which should not be mitigated when determining whether a plat serves the public use and interest. In this case,the additional traffic vis a vis the streets that would serve this traffic demand a density reduction. 3. The applicant could choose to implement such a reduction by either maintaining the general lot size and increasing the open space and secondarily preserving additional trees or by modestly increasing the lot sizes of the remaining 50 lots. Rather then specify the method,the recommendation would be to allow the applicant flexibility in this redesign. 4. In general,with the proposed density reduction,the proposed plat appears to serve the public use and interest. It does provide additional housing choices in an area that can be adequately served by water and sewer and to a lesser extent,the steep narrow roads of Renton Hill. The plat is somewhat isolated from surrounding development and buffers between the subject site and adjacent properties have been provided. 5. The plans show that site can deal with its storm water runoff. As noted, it can be served by City water and sewer. 6. It would appear that there is a remote potential for instability due to the underlying coal workings. There remains the potential to discover overgrown or ineffectively sealed off shafts. The applicant will be required to follow the procedures outlined in the geotechnical reports to develop the site and home foundations. The recommendation of staff for a hold harmless agreement seems reasonable in the event a unforeseen settlement occurs in the future. Potential residents should be given adequate notice that their is some potential for a coal mine subsidence to occur. 7. - The proposed layout appears reasonable. In most cases where "interior" lots would be accessed by easement or private roads or pipe stems,these lots are not sandwiched into compounds surrounded on . Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings • File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 28 four side by other homes. A number of these lots are located-on the pipeline or at the open space edges of this site. 8. The ERC imposed conditions to avoid exacerbating drainage problems down stream and to avoid erosion. Storm water will be contained and diverted to avoid excessive flows. The development to R-8 density standards and the need to create building pads and streets means that most of the vegetation will be removed from the subject site. 9. The proposed plat will provide additional housing choices in an area in which urban services are provided or can reasonably be provided. 10. Development of the site will introduce additional noise and population. 11. The plat provides reasonably rectangular lots and lots that meet the dimensional requirements of code. The open space between lots along the pipeline road does appear to be a potential maintenance problem, particularly with access to the pipeline road roundabout or circuitous from the main plat. These open space parcels should be absorbed into the adjacent lots. 12. The other open space parcels should be restricted by language on the face of the plat that preserve s their open space characteristics and precludes selling them off for development in the future. 13. The plat will have its main access to a street which appears capable of providing a safe controlled intersection with appropriate sight and stopping distances. There will be a need to provide assurance that the Seattle pipeline road can be used for emergency access. 14. As a final recommendation,this office would recommend to the City Council that it explore providing the primary access to this plat from the pipeline road with a gated access to the remainder of Renton Hill. If such access could be granted,the narrow and steep streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density. This office was not fully permitted to explore whether this was at all possible. This office only has anecdotal evidence that Seattle, at one time,permitted unobstructed access to Renton Hill from the east. This office does not suggest a full opening but again,recommends that primary access to this plat might be from the east with a gated emergency access at SE 7th Court to prevent through traffic movements. 15. In conclusion,the proposed preliminary plat should be approved by the City Council subject to the conditions noted below. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council should approve the Preliminary Plat subject to the following conditions: 1. The plat should be reduced from 57 to 50 single family lots with a density of 6.02 dwelling units per acre. This falls within the permissible range of 5 to 8 dwelling units per acre. 2. • The applicant shall comply with the conditions imposed by the ERC. 2 +, Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings • File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 29 3. The plat shall contain language acceptable to the City Attorney regarding the recreational and open space respectively and precluding development of them. 4. All landscape tract areas, with the exception of the 5,402 sf tract located at the development entry,the 3,042 sf private"park", and the landscape area abutting the stormwater tract, shall be incorporated into lots already proposed within the plat. No additional building lots are to be created. A revised plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Division prior to receiving construction permits. 5. Commonly held open space areas shall be enhanced,prior to occupancy, with landscaping including mixed deciduous and evergreen trees and plantings of native shrubs and groundcover. The applicant shall submit a landscape plan to the Development Services Department for approval. 6. A Hold Harmless Agreement shall be recorded that indemnifies the City of Renton from any damage resulting from subsidence that may occur due to previous subsurface mining activities. 7. The applicant will have to secure in writing permission to use the Seattle pipeline road for emergency access. 8. The homeowners would be required to maintain the open space tracts at the entrance and the park area. ORDERED THIS 25th day of January, 2001. FRED J.

Any aggrieved person feeling that the decision of the Examiner is ambiguous or based on erroneous procedure,errors of law or fact, error in judgment, or the discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written request for a review by the Examiner within fourteen (14)days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant,and the Examiner may, after review of the record,take further action as he deems proper. An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV,Chapter 8, Section 110,which requires that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk,accompanying a filing fee of$75.00 and meeting other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department,first floor of City Hall. If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Covenants,the executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Council or final processing of the file. You may contact this office for information on formatting covenants. The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one)communications may occur concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council. All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as Appeals to the City Council.

LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dear Ms:Larson: This office received a request for reconsideration regarding this matter'and the response follows.. First,this office does-not discount that there wilt be, impacts on the community, both short-lived impacts and long-term impacts. The short-lived(which`itself is a relative term)impacts will be the concrete impacts of development;:including.construction traffic and noise. The long-term ' impacts will be increased traffic and noise from;.new:residents:. That does not mean that those impacts will create an overall untoward;impact>as'required for a SEPA determination of significance. This office will generally address the concerns"in the manner used by the request. Page 8,#21: The issue was.the proposed reduction in hauling truck trips due to a change in • grading.plans. The applicant proposed pi-more closely balance the cut and fill. The change in grading plan§is now considered part of the application and cannot be altered without submitting a new application. The party that ultimately develops the site is not relevant to the permit as reviewed and altered. The ultimate developer would be bound by the application as it was reviewed and approved. Stafford Crest as well as a number of large apartment complexes have all resulted in construction traffic similar to if not.larger than the construction traffic anticipated. It is not so significant as to require the preparation of an environmental impact statement. ` Page 8,#22: The overall impacts of additional traffic including LOS were considered by the documents and bolstered by the-testimony: There will be additional traffic, and there will be a fraction of,a second delay at the signal-controlled intersection which will not be noticeable. The LOS for the various intersections,which is currently excellent,will not be changed other than that fractional delay: There is no question that the hill and its various routes are quite steep,but the , entire record:demonstrates that traffic can negotiate it satisfactorily.. Page 9,#24:Again;the record demonstrates that the hill is`now negotiated by current residents and can be similarly negotiated by new residents...Staff supported the applicant's studies that the sight distance is acceptable. The record is closed. The appellant had the burden at the hearing or hearings and the information submitted is not timely at this point. 1901a.:.2001 1055 South Grady'Way -.Renton,`_Washington 98055 -(42 )..430-6515 �jcl. • .., . • . , '. .:: This paper contains 50%recycled material,20%post consumer . • Ruth Larson Page 2` Page 10, #34: The availability of dial-up service is not crucial to whether or not the subject proposal has more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. . Page 10,#38: As noted in the determination,roadway maintenance is determined on need,and if the roadway deteriorates, it will be scheduled for repair whatever the'surface or subsurface conditions. Page 12,#9: Sight distance was discussed above. Alone or coupled with,the other issues presented on appeal did not present evidence necessary to overcome the burden on the appellants in this decision. Pages 17 and 22 both reflect the minutes arid the summarized testimony. This office will not comment on testimony. Page 24, #18: The construction of the overpasses'means-that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains as at had been:in the past At,may be inconvenient to reach or leave the hill,but no more so than for other residents of South Renton when trains run through town. Page 24, #25: The City has a set of adopted policies on how traffic,is",to be evaluated. Those policies were utilized, and there is.capacity torhandle the-traffic. As a matter of policy review, this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts'tolsome.extent byreducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to the.Council;went.beyondneretechnical issues;and dealt with the more • personal impacts of the traffic on those residents along the commute route. This recommendation also went against stated City Council policy density reduction by the Hearing Examiner was not generally appropriate.':It seemed that in these circumstances,pe balancing of impacts " demanded a reduction even if that reduction was modest: Page 25,#26: There will be moretraffc.,That is clearly stated: The way LOS is calculated shows that there is capacity for more,cars, and.thatLOS wilLnot"suffer. Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will notice:the change::That,again, is not refuted. :There is no doubt that residents will notice more traffrc.FrvTliere will be even less traffic with the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. Page 25,#28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills arid those near Group Health have steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features. The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8 to allow up to eight dwelling units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to" allow a 50 lot plat. If the City Council chooses, it may modify its adopted policies and/or change the.Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this: time. Ruth Larson Page 3 . In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will-resolve the purported problems. Butthe record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated,although it will affect, but not adversely(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live.on Renton Hill. As this office noted at the public hearing, there is no doubt that if sortie future development were proposed;these new residents will be right alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton Hill.-That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannotbe accommodated. The record reflects that it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to alter or reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal or the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat. ' Since this office is aware that an appeal has:already been filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original decision:•theresis no.reason to extend the appeal period. If this office can provide any additional assistance,please`feel,free to write.

City.Clerk Parties of Record CITY OF RENTON rtoa q,,i FEB 0 8 2001 RECEIVED CITY CLEWS OFFICt REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Numbers: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dated January 25, 2001 Filed by: Renton Hill Community Association Date: February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to EXH2O, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr. Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #25: Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax paying residents who are forced to "adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved.

Renton Wa. 98055 6 • LETTER FROM KEITH MOBERG (see para. 8) December 11, 2000 Mr. Fred J. Kaufinan Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots with fewer homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a 25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations. Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems. All were old and extremely high maintenance. River • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also allowed four new homes to be built and three or four more are in the planning stages to be built on the North side of the pipeline. Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58 .17.010 Purpose.

Particular emphasis was given to Renton Avenue South. Ms. Larson used photos to show the close proximity of telephone poles to the curbs,the narrowness of the street,the dips in the street and the tendency of garbage trucks to drive toward the center of the street. She explained her concerns regarding safety issues when large trucks are using the street considering the narrowness of the street,the steep grade, and the limited sight distances. Becky Lamke, 415 Cedar Ave S,Renton, WA 98055 expressed concern that the number of trips per day per single family household has been underestimated,based on informal surveys of her neighbors. Ms.Lamke questioned exactly what the landscaping would consist of in the 15-foot buffer along the north property boundary. She concluded by stating that the construction vehicles should be required to come onto the site off of Puget Drive. It is not considered safe for busses to come up the hill, so it should not be safe for large trucks to do so. Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner,Development Services, 1055 S Grady Way,Renton, WA 98055 gave an overview of the nature of the project, its current status, and its progress through the ERC. Regarding the reason for the setbacks on Lot#35,Ms. Higgins stated the geotechnical engineer's report commented that the slopes at the rear of this lot are excessive. They recommended that the setback at the rear of Lot#35 be increased from Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 3 20 to 25 feet in order to further to protect the slope. Using a photograph from the City Archives, she clarified why an exemption to the requirement in the Critical Areas Ordinance that slopes above a certain grade be protected was granted to the project. Ms. Higgins also addressed the issues of groundwater, responsibility for landscaping, regulation of fences, and parks constructed on the property. Ms.Higgins discussed the issue of Metro service on Renton Hill. She also explained the State of Washington Growth Management Act requirements and how the City is required to plan for housing. The City Council has committed to provide as much single family housing as possible and not meet their target with apartments. Regarding the requirement that a note be placed on the face of the plat about former mining activities,Ms.Higgins stated this is the City's way of insuring that a property owner is made aware of a potentially hazardous situation. Mining activity took place throughout the city, and there are very rudimentary maps of where these mine shafts might be. The note on the plat alerts the potential home owner to seek the consultation of a structural engineer and choose the construction method most appropriate for the site. The appeal hearing was adjourned at 12:30 pm.,to be continued on Thursday,November 16 at 9:00 a.m. ******************************** The continued appeal hearing opened on Thursday,November 16 at 9:02 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Kayren Kittrick,Development Services, 1055 S Grady Way,Renton, WA 98055 explained her role regarding Land Use Applications and how these applications are reviewed by her office. Ms. Kittrick stated that the Street Maintenance Plan requires that all arterials be evaluated annually and all other streets,which would include Renton Avenue S, be evaluated every two years. Ms. Kittrick explained traffic mitigation fees and how they are reviewed and collected,resources available for street repair, and hauling times as allowed by code. Ms.Kittrick reviewed intersection distances,how they are measured, and under what circumstances intersections should be 110 feet apart vs. 150 feet apart. She also discussed the transportation study provided by the applicant, including levels of service at S 7th Ct and access to Renton Hill overall.Regarding the foundation of Renton Avenue S.,Ms.Kittrick stated that recent borings show four inches of asphalt over crushed rock. On cross examination,Ms. Kittrick responded to questions raised by Ms. Larson in her appeal letter. Ann M. Gygi, attorney representing applicant,Hillis Clark Martin&Peterson, 1221 Second Ave, Seattle, WA 98101-2925 opened by reiterating that in a SEPA appeal it is appellant's burden to establish that the SEPA determination is clearly erroneous. This is a plat application that is based on an adopted comprehensive plan and zoning that slated this property for development at an urban scale. This parcel is among those that the City of Renton legislated to accommodate a certain amount of urban growth under the Growth Management Act. The general impacts associated with the conversion are impacts of the legislative decision. The specific and unique impacts of the plat proposal are what should be the subject of the SEPA consideration at this stage. Mark McGinnis, Geotech Consultants, 13256 NE 20th St. #16,Bellevue, WA 98005 reviewed his education, training and experience as a geotechnical engineer. He summarized what is contained in the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment prepared by his firm regarding coal mines under the site, including risk of excessive settlement, localized subsidence, and mine gas emissions.Mr.McGinnis discussed the mitigation measures recommended in the Geotechnical Report to address the two worked coal mine seams under the property. He stated that it is his professional opinion that the recommended measures will adequately mitigate Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 4 any potential risks associated with the two worked coal seams. Mr.McGinnis described the steep slope associated with Lot#35 in the northeast corner of the site. His firm investigated the slope, looked for slope problems, and did a test pit for exploration in the area to assess soil conditions near the top of the slope. Based on these observations, a 25 foot building setback from the crest of the slope is recommended. In addition to the 25 foot setback, it is recommended that there be no clearing and grading within 10 feet of the top of slope. Larry Hobbs,Transportation Planning and Engineering,Inc., 2223 112th Ave NE, Suite 101, Bellevue, WA 98004 reviewed his background, education and training as a traffic engineer. Mr. Hobbs stated that safety issues were considered as part of the traffic study that was prepared for the project. The city provided the last three years worth of accident data in the area, and it was found that there were no accidents recorded on Renton Hill itself for this period of time. In checking the data for the last five years, it was found that there were three traffic accidents throughout all of Renton Hill. Two of these accidents involved one vehicle backing into another, and the third was a vehicle striking a parked vehicle. There were no injuries or fatalities in any of the reported accidents. The record of reported traffic incidents is one of the main indicators of safety on a street system. Mr. Hobbs stated that it is his opinion that there will not be any increase in traffic accidents in the Renton Hill area as a result of the proposed development. Residents of the area would most likely be aware of anything that may be deficient and would drive accordingly to compensate for that. New residents moving into the area would rapidly gain familiarity with the street system. Jennifer Steig, Peterson Consulting Engineers, 4030 Lake Washington Blvd NE, Suite 200,Kirkland, WA 98033 gave a summary of her training, education and experience as a civil engineer. Ms. Steig described the conceptual grading plan her firm prepared for the site. Once grades are set, computer programs to come up with cut and fill volume. Based on the conceptual grading plan,there would be approximately 55,000 cubic yards of cut material and 19,000 cubic yards of fill. The applicant requested that we develop a plan with a closer balance so that all the cut and fill would be used on the site--there would not be any material hauled off the site as a result of grading. The conceptual plan was sent to a company used industry wide that has a computer program which can look at the site as it is graded in the conceptual plan and raise or lower the site in small increments to determine when a balance is reached. This information is used to develop a final grading plan for construction. In doing this, it was found that if the site is raised one foot from the conceptual grading plan,there would be a balance of the cut and fill material on the site. Based on further geotechnical studies, if the unsuitable fill were screened on site,the amount of fill that would need to be hauled off site could be reduced by approximately half. Ms. Steig discussed the number of truck trips that would be required to haul fill off the property based on the number of cubic yards of fill remaining. She explained under what conditions material must be worked so that it will be suitable for use in construction. In closing,Ms. Larson discussed the issues of preservation of vegetation and wildlife, compatibility of the new homes with the neighborhood, and the two crested vertical curves on Renton Ave S that do not meet city, county or state requirements for vertical curve design. Ms.Fontes, in closing, addressed issues raised by the appellant in the course of the hearing and discussed what the evidence has shown and what the process has been in each instance. Ms.Fontes reiterated that despite all the questions raised by the appellant, she has not shown evidence of significant adverse environmental impacts in any of these instances. Therefore,the decision made by the ERC must stand. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 5 Ms. Larson responded that every question she asked was stated in the ERC's report. She responded to the questions because she felt there was clarification needed. Some of the issues have been clarified, others have not. In closing,Ms. Gygi stated that the applicant concurs with the City's closing arguments. She reviewed some of the issues raised by the appellant. Ms. Gygi summarized by stating that any project will alter the surrounding area. It is unrealistic to expect that there would be no effect from development. The law does not require that all adverse impacts be eliminated. If it did,no change in land use would ever be possible. Ms. Gygi reiterated that the burden is upon the appellant to prove adverse environmental impacts,which has not been done in this case. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this appeal. There was no one else wishing to speak. The appeal hearing closed at 11:30 a.m. SEPA APPEAL FINDINGS,CONCLUSION&DECISION FINDINGS: 1. The appellant,The Renton Hill Community Association, represented by Ruth Larson, filed an appeal of a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated(DNS-M) issued for a proposed Preliminary Plat that would divide approximately 10.35 acres of R-8 (Residential: 8 units per acre)zoned property into 57 lots. The appeal was filed in a timely manner. 2. In processing the preliminary plat application the City subjected the application to is ordinary SEPA review process. The City, in the course of and as a result of its SEPA review, issued a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated for the project. The Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated (DNS-M)was conditioned by the City. 3. The subject site is located near the intersection of Beacon Way SE, S 7th Court and S 7th Street. The property is located immediately across from Philip Arnold Park. 4. The subject site a triangular parcel approximately 1.114 feet by 818 feet by 829 feet. 5. The subject site is approximately 10.35 acres or 450,846 square feet in area. 6. The subject site has rolling and descending terrain with some steeper slopes that were determined to be manmade as part of past mining or quarrying activity. An exemption from steep slope regulations was issued administratively since the steeper slopes are not natural. 7. The ERC imposed five conditions related to erosion control,three conditions imposing mitigation fees for fire,parks and roads,three conditions related to geotechnical issues for building construction/foundation work, subsidence notice due to potential coal mines and setbacks from steep slopes, one condition dealing with the potential discovery of hazardous materials, one dealing with traffic control for construction vehicles and finally, a condition for access across the Seattle Pipeline for emergency, secondary access. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 6 8. During the course of the public hearing staff noted that the gross vehicle weight of 26,000 was not intended to vary from that posted on the road signs and should have matched that posted along the road. 9. The appellants objected to the determination. The appellants objected to or raised concerns about: a. Modification of street standards to allow narrower roads in the,plat. b. Protection for abutting Falcon Ridge and River Ridge properties. c. Weight limit on Renton Avenue differing from posted standard(that was an error not intended to vary from posted limits). d. Width and emergency access relating to the Pipeline road. e. The steepness and width of Renton Avenue South. f. Exception to Critical Areas Ordinance that permitted grading on previously disturbed slopes. g. The amount of grading and number of heavy truck trips were not fully evaluated for impacts on the community. (the applicant altered the plans to balance the cut and fill and substantially reduce material movements) h. Impacts on River Ridge. i. Air quality impacts of vegetation removal. j. The alteration of the base elevation and its impacts on water. k. The removal of 92%of the trees and retention of 32 trees, if possible. 1. The maintenance of installed landscaping strips and islands. m. Impacts on the deer population that frequents the subject site. n. The manner in which the rezone was adopted. o. The character of the homes. P. The consistency of fencing. q. The impacts of new light on the community. r. The impact of internal pocket parks. s. The impact on the Renton Hill community by this plat. Heritage Renton Hill - Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 7 t. Traffic impacts of new residents and construction vehicles on the existing road surfaces and the community. u. The use of mitigation funding. v. The development does not follow the policies of the City of Renton. 10. The subject site is located near the northeast corner of Renton Hill just where it begins its drop down to Maple Valley and the Cedar River. 11. The majority of property in the vicinity of the subject site is zoned R-8 (Residential; 8 dwelling units per acre). It has been developed with single family homes. The slopes north of and below the subject site are Resource Conservation. 12. Immediately north of the subject site is the River Ridge development that contains 11 lots. The proposed development would share an access roadway that now serves only River Ridge. East of the subject site is Falcon Ridge, and it contains 80 lots. Falcon Ridge is accessed from the east by a private roadway. 13. The subject site is covered by what is probably second or third growth trees and shrubs. As noted,the site has been disturbed by some form of extraction or quarrying in the past. 14. The applicant did an historical survey of the subject site using aerial photographs as well reviewing the permit history of the site. There also were reviews of the mining data for the subject site and vicinity. There were also borings to determine the nature of the soils and to expose potential dumping of hazardous or other materials. The US Geological Survey maps for the area show a mine symbol, although it does not specify the type of mine but it appears it was used as a gravel quarry. 15. An evaluation was made of potential mine hazards. Both the more shallow and deeper mines are located 200 feet to 600 feet deep. It is anticipated that most linear shafts would have subsided over time. Any collapse events in "horizontal"mines would be distributed over those 200 to 600 feet, causing little surface subsidence. The greater potential for dangerous collapses are old airshafts or vertical access shafts. Some of these were filled with jumbled lumber or other debris till it"caught" on the sides of the shaft and then filled. The "caught" materials can decay over time and lead to collapses. In most cases these latter actions cannot be predicted. The geotechnical information and studies have instructions on dealing with these if they are discovered during construction. In addition,there are governmental agencies that deal with such openings, although obviously, an opening occurring can still take parties by surprise. The geotechnical report also has construction methods to make sure homes constructed in this development follow certain prescribed foundation techniques. 16. The applicant and City emphasized stability in dealing with lots near the edge of slope areas. The only lot affected by steeper slopes is Lot 35 in the northeast corner of the subject site. Lot 35 will have a 25 foot setback for building and a 10 foot setback buffer that will remain undisturbed. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 8 17. The Geotechnical information shows that areas that have 15%to 30% slopes are limited and most of the terrain is moderate and the underlying soils are suitable for construction. The ERC imposed conditions to deal with erosion. The professional analysis is that the measures suggested in the geotechnical report and the measures imposed by the ERC should prevent any problems. 18. There are approximately 250 to 300 acres of open space along the Cedar River and the slopes above the river in City ownership or open space. Although a large amount of this property is very steep slopes, there are a developed trail and park located along the river, and there are other level or more gentle areas. To accommodate roads and building pads,most of the vegetation will be removed from the subject site. It would appear that similar clearing probably has occurred for most development on the hill in the past with ornamentals replacing native trees. 19. There will be a loss of over 300 trees of six inches or greater in diameter. This loss of trees and habitat is an unfortunate but foreseeable result of development. Trees and vegetation may be maintained where possible. Open space tracts and ornamental landscaping generally occur as plats are developed and mature. 20. The project was reviewed for compliance with the Critical Areas Ordinance and the land clearing regulations. The exception approved for working on the man-made or altered slopes is not unusual and is a remedy available by code. Natural slopes will not be altered or would require special approvals. 21. The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort. This would have entailed a large number of dump trucks moving the materials to and from the subject site. The applicant further refined their grading plans and found that generally raising the elevation of the subject site by approximately one(1)foot would significantly reduce the needed trips. This would mean utilizing local materials on site in what is termed a"balanced cut and fill." There would still be export of unsuitable materials or debris that has been dumped on the subject site. It is not anticipated that raising the site by approximately one foot would create any problems with erosion or stability. The number of truck trips would probably be,reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips. The trucks would meet load limit requirements of the City. While this is not a small number of trips, it is also not unusual where development is occurring, including in residential areas and the City urges that this is generally not a SEPA impact. 22. The existing public roads serving the subject site do not meet current standards. Similar undersized or steep roads serve other older or hilly areas of the City including roads serving areas west of Rainier. At the same time,these older roads serve their neighborhoods or communities. Renton Avenue seems to serve the existing population, and as new residents have moved to Renton Hill they have adjusted to the constraints and limitations. This does not discount the experiences of current residents and that fact that extra care seems necessary to negotiate the roadways and deal with events like snow and ice. The fact is,transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the,additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours. It appears that there may be an approximately 0.2 second delay in wait time at traffic lights. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 9 23. The proposed intersection at SE 7th Court and the subject proposal's entry road will meet City standards for sight distance and angles. Anytime a new intersection is created residents have to accommodate the changes in traffic flow. 24. Renton Avenue South is approximately 26 feet wide and has an approximately 23 foot 2 inch driving surface. There is a 5 inch drop to the gutter. Both telephone poles and hydrants are located close to the right-of-way and driving surface. There are some dips in the road and the crest apparently creates difficult sight problems with traffic driving up and down the hill according the residents. The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position,the view is not significantly impaired. 25. A study of accident history showed no reported accidents during the last three years and three(3) accidents throughout Renton Hill during the last five years. They appeared to be minor accidents resulting in limited property damage but no personal injuries. Anecdotal evidence suggests that there have been a number of"near-miss"and minor accidents but that residents may not have reported some accidents. The assumption then would have to be that they were not major accidents if they remained unreported. 26. The evidence does suggest that curbs, gutters and sidewalks improve safety but there are areas along what would be the commute route where this is not possible. Limiting speed and driver caution serve to control conflicts. SEPA does not ask an applicant to rectify existing problems,whether traffic or storm water problems, but requires that impacts be appropriately disclosed. 27. The appellant challenged the traffic generation numbers used by the applicant. Those numbers estimate that each single family home generates approximately 9.55 trips. The 57 homes would generate 544.35 trips per day. The estimates also predict that approximately ten percent(10%) of the total trips would occur during each of the peak commuting times or approximately 55 trips. No basis for the challenge was provided. 28. The development, if approved in full,would add 57 homes to an existing inventory of approximately 200 homes, or an approximately 25% increase. There has been some infilling in the last few years, also adding to the inventory. At the same time, some homes were lost to the last expansion and straightening of I-405. The traffic report and City analysis demonstrate that while the roads are not standard,they have sufficient capacity to handle the additional traffic. There will be impacts,but they are not considered untoward. The LOS for the intersections on the hill will not change as a result of the development. 29. Intersection spacing was found to be able to meet standards for the new intersection, which will be controlled by a stop sign. 30. LOS of A and B exist for the critical intersections and those will not be changed by the development of the subject site, although as indicated, wait times may increase by a fraction of a second. 31. Street maintenance is accomplished as needed. No specific improvements outside the boundaries of the plat will occur other than some possible modification to the intersection at Beacon and 7th. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 10 32. The City works with applicants to develop a construction management plan to deal with traffic,routes and times in order to control access by heavy trucks. This would be done in this case as well. 33. There is an approximately 30 foot wide strip of land between the proposed development and River Ridge,the residential site adjacent to the subject site. Fences are not generally an environmental issue. Setbacks between newer single family and existing single family uses is also not considered a SEPA issue. The project will be providing the required setbacks, and in some instances it intends to provide larger than required setbacks. Larger setbacks than code provides are not required(minimum impacts that would occur with any development and not untoward in any fashion). The additional light and glare created by the new homes is not expected to be out of the ordinary for single family communities. It is not particularly reviewed for single family development. 34. While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for • vans. 35. The proposed density of 6.78 is in the midrange permitted in the R-8 Zone. The R-8 Zone permits a density of between 5 and 8 single family units per acre. 36. There is an approximately 30 foot wide strip of land between the proposed development and Falcon Ridge,the other residential site adjacent to the subject site. 37. Mitigation fees for transportation are distributed after the City Council determines needs in its six year cycle. Maintenance is done as needed. 38. Construction activity and hauling is governed by code provisions limiting the impact on rush hour traffic and limiting it, generally,to daylight hours. In addition,there is the construction management plan. Trucks doing hauling are monitored and "weight tickets" and reports are required. Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock. The City found it acceptable for heavy loads. It currently serves large garbage trucks and fire trucks. 39. The proposed reduction in street width from 50 feet to 42 feet for new roads within the plat boundaries is a code compliance issue and should not generally affect SEPA compliance. 40. The question of who builds the homes and what would be their quality is not a SEPA issue. The City does not control design of single family development nor who may develop such homes if they meet code standards. 41. The applicant and City, in response to the appeal,both noted that asking a series of questions, particularly if the answers are contained in existing studies or covered by existing regulations, does not provide a sufficient basis for overturning a SEPA decision. 42. All of the Findings and Conclusions of the companion Plat Report are incorporated into this report by reference. Heritage Renton Hill - Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 11 CONCLUSIONS: 1. The decision of the governmental agency acting as the responsible official is entitled to substantial weight. Therefore,the determination of the Environmental Review Committee(ERC),the city's responsible official, is entitled to be maintained unless the appellant clearly demonstrates that the determination was in error. 2. The Determination of Non-Significance in this case is entitled to substantial weight and will not be reversed or modified unless it can be found that the decision is "clearly erroneous." (Hayden v. Port Townsend, 93 Wn 2nd 870, 880; 1980). The court in citing Norway Hill Preservation and Protection Association v. King County Council, 87 Wn 2d 267,274; 1976, stated: "A finding is'clearly erroneous' when, although there is evidence to support it,the reviewing court on the entire evidence is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." Therefore,the determination of the ERC will not be modified or reversed if it can meet the above test. For reasons enumerated below,the decision of the ERC is affirmed. 3. The clearly erroneous test has generally been applied when an action results in a DNS, since the test is less demanding on the appellant. The reason is that SEPA requires a thorough examination of the environmental consequences of an action. The courts have,therefore,made it easier to reverse a DNS. A second test,the "arbitrary and capricious"test is generally applied when a determination of significance(DS) is issued. In this second test an appellant would have to show that the decision clearly flies in the face of reason since a DS is more protective of the environment since it results in the preparation of a full disclosure document, an Environmental Impact Statement. 4. An action is determined to have a significant adverse impact on the quality of the environment if more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment is a reasonable probability. (Norway, at 278). Since the Court spoke in Norway, WAC 197-11-794 has been adopted, it defines "significant" as follows: a. Significant. (1) "Significant" as used in SEPA means a reasonable likelihood of more than a moderate adverse impact on environmental quality. b. (2) Significance involves context and intensity ...Intensity depends on the magnitude and duration of an impact....The severity of the impact should be weighed along with the likelihood of its occurrence. An impact may be significant if its chance of occurrence is not great,but the resulting environmental impact would be severe if it occurred. Also redefined since the Norway decision was the term "probable." c. Probable. "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur, ... Probable is used to distinguish likely impacts from those that merely have a possibility of occurring,but are remote or speculative. (WAC 197-11-782). 5. Impacts also include reasonably related and foreseeable direct and indirect impacts including short- term and long-term effects. (WAC 197-11-060(4)(c)). Impacts include those effects resulting from growth caused by a proposal, as well as the likelihood that the present proposal will serve as precedent Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF • January 25, 2001 Page 12 for future actions. (WAC 197-11-060(4)(d)). 6. Environmental impact is also related to the location. A development,whether an office building or a single family development, may or may not create impact depending on the existing surroundings. 7. There is no question that there will be changes in the neighborhood and there may definitely be inconvenience, particularly during construction. There will be clear changes to the subject site. But these changes do not necessarily rise to the level of impact mandated by SEPA to require the preparation of an EIS. The development will not significantly alter the character of the community. It will be single family in character,just like the surrounding development. Adding additional single family homes to the existing single family community is not dramatic. It will not trigger changes to other undeveloped or low density sites and will not create any precedents generating calls for changes to the residential zoning already governing the area. Both the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning designated the area for urban densities. In addition,while additional traffic will flow through the main commute route into downtown Renton,the proposed community is located on the edge of the community, not in the midst of the existing community, and its overall impacts will not be very significant. 8. Traffic seems to be a key issue presented by the appellant, and traffic's associated issues such as narrow and steep roads, heavy construction traffic and stopping distance and sight distance on the hill and at the new intersection. These are legitimate concerns,but the evidence does not provide a basis for altering the ERC's decision. They will not have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. The development will permanently add more traffic of a kind that traffic analysis shows the streets currently handle without appreciably increasing commute times, overloading roads or increasing conflicts significantly in terms of SEPA impacts that would require more detailed information than has been prepared in the various technical studies reviewed by the ERC. It will not have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. The development will generate impacts similar to those that now exist. 9. There definitely will be more traffic. That occurs anytime new development occurs. The streets leaving the hill are definitely steep and narrow. The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway,but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated. 10. The most pronounced change will be the removal of the forest cover on the ten acres. This acreage has been cleared in the past and the site topography altered by what appears to have been quarrying activity. But clearing of trees alone is not sufficient to trigger the preparation of an EIS. Nothing in • record suggests that this alone will create such a significant impact on the quality of the environment that additional information is needed. This acreage needs to be looked at in the context of the adjacent 200 to 300 acres of forest and habitat. It also needs to be looked at in terms of surrounding uses. The areas around the site are mostly urban and developed with single family homes such as proposed for the subject site. There is already a park located immediately across from the site. While animals will probably be displaced,there appears to be sufficient open space immediately adjacent to the site to provide habitat. Nothing in the record demonstrates the any large species or threatened species permanently inhabit the subject site. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 13 11. Construction impacts will be irritating to those who live near the subject site and construction traffic will have impacts on the community as a whole, but they are not the type of impacts which have more than a short-lived impact and they are not the types of impacts that would throw the ERC's decision into doubt. In addition, code provides for construction management plans, and there remains the possibility that the pipeline road could serve some construction uses. In addition,the applicant has substantially reduced the amount of materials that would need to be transported either to or from the subject site. This will substantially reduce the originally anticipated truck traffic. 12. While there will be a series of impacts as there are in any development,they do not add up in a quantifiable manner to the type of impacts or long term precedents that result in more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. Issues such as quality or character of development, fencing, setback standards in excess of those required, code permitted exceptions to slope clearing or roadway width are not appropriately SEPA issues. Access to the site across the pipeline road is a condition of development, and if it were not granted,that would have a profound affect on the proposal and is not a SEPA issue. The creation of internal parks and open space and maintenance are not SEPA issues. The manner of adoption of the reclassification of the site is not a SEPA issue. 13. The reviewing body should not substitute its judgment for that of the original body with expertise in the matter, unless the reviewing body has the firm conviction that a mistake has been made. This office was not left with a firm conviction that the ERC made a mistake. There was a thorough review of geotechnical information that showed the site could be developed. There were two traffic reports, including slope analysis of sight distance issues,that demonstrated the current roads,while not meeting current standards have capacity for the additional traffic anticipated. 14. The appealing party has a burden that was not met in the instant case. The decision of the ERC must be affirmed. DECISION: The decision of the ERC is affirmed. • MINUTES: PRELIMINARY PLAT The following minutes are a summary of the November 16 and December 12, 2000 preliminary plat hearing. The legal record is recorded on tape. The hearing opened on Thursday,November 16 at 11:35 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Because of time constraints,Mr. Mehlhaff,Ms. Liston,Mr. Giuliani,Mr. Ellis,Ms. Fulfer,Ms. Herman, Ms. Lamke, and Mr. Fulfer testified regarding the preliminary plat during the appeal portion of the hearing. Their comments appear later in the minutes. The following exhibits were entered into the record for the preliminary plat hearing: Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF • January 25, 2001 Page 14 Exhibit No. 1: Yellow land use file, LUA00- Exhibit No.2: Overall plat plan 053,PP,ECF, containing the original application, proof of posting, proof of publication an other documentation pertinent to this request Exhibit No.3: Sheet 2 of 4, larger scale drawing of Exhibit No.4: Sheet 3 of 4, larger scale drawing of plat plan plat plan Exhibit No. 5: Sheet 4 of 4,preliminary plat plan Exhibit No. 6: Topographic survey • Exhibit No. 7: Tree cutting and land clearing plan Exhibit No. 8: Drainage control plan Exhibit No. 9: Generalized utilities plan Exhibit No. 10: Detailed grading plan Exhibit No. 11: Neighborhood detail map Exhibit No. 12: Zoning map Exhibit No. 13: Plat map of lots along north border Exhibit No. 14: Timeline of project showing buffer Exhibit No. 15: Wildlife Report Exhibit No. 16: Original plat map of River Ridge Exhibit No. 17: Stopping sight distances drawing Exhibit No. 18: Stopping sight distances chart Exhibit No. 19: Stopping sight distances chart and Exhibit No.20: Renton Ave. S. stopping sight topographic distances Exhibit No.21: Traffic Count Charts(6 sheets) Exhibit No.22: Aerial photograph of River Ridge Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Planner,Development Services, 1055 S Grady Way,Renton, WA 98055 presented the staff report. Bennett Development has proposed subdivision of an approximately 450,846 square feet(10.35 acre)property into 57 lots suitable for detached, single family houses. The triangular-shaped property is located on Renton Hill, southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way S with SE 7th Ct,Jones Ave S, and South • 7th St. Although Renton Hill is a well established neighborhood, land abutting the proposed project to the north has been developed fairly recently into River Ridge,an eleven lot subdivision. Falcon Ridge, a large(80 lot)subdivision, lies to the southeast. Philip Arnold Park is adjacent to the southwest. The Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline,which is used occasionally for overflow parking from the park, separates the park from the proposed development property. The zoning designation for the property is R-8. Most of Renton Hill is zoned R-8 except for a strip of land on the west side above I-405 which is zoned R-10. Access would be from a new public street that would intersect with SE 7th Ct. The new street would terminate in a cul-de-sac. An emergency-only access would connect the cul-de-sac with the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline. A modification from street standards has been requested to reduce the width of the public right-of-way from 50 feet to 42 feet. This modification has been approved by the director of the Development Services Department. It would not reduce the pavement width, only the right-of-way width, and would not affect the ability to have sidewalks in the development. Ms Higgins continued by stating that the Environmental Review Committee(ERC) issued a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated on October 17,200. One appeal was filed prior to the close of the appeal period. The ERC placed several mitigating measures on the project. The first four relate to erosion control on the project and are best management practices as required by the City. The applicant shall pay applicable Transportation, Fire and Parks mitigation fees. The applicant shall follow the recommendations of the Geotechnical engineers as they pertain to site development and building construction. A note shall be placed on the face of the plat prior to recording stating that a known potential for ground subsidence exists in the area and that building plans shall be designed in consultation with a structural engineer and shall conform to the recommendations of the Geotech report. The rear setback at the lot located in the northeast corner of the property, Lot#35, shall be increased to 25 feet from 20 feet. A note shall be placed on the title of the lot prohibiting building construction within 25 feet of the of the rear property boundary and prohibit land clearing Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 15 within 10 feet of the rear property line. The applicant shall ensure that all construction debris and discarded items are excavated from the site and construction is ceased immediately, followed by notification of the City of Renton Development Services Division within 24 hours, should hazardous material be discovered during the removal. The Construction Traffic Control Plan shall include a condition that the construction vehicles in excess of 20,000 gvw associated with the project would be prohibited from operating on Renton Hill during a.m. and p.m. peak traffic hours as identified in the traffic report. The applicant shall obtain an access permit in order to use the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement for a secondary, emergency only access. The permit shall be obtained prior to building permits. Ms. Higgins described the property and discussed how the proposal meets the various requirements of the Preliminary Plat Criteria. The proposed project meets the first objective of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element by providing new housing in what up to now has been underutilized land. It also provides a greater use of urban services and infrastructure. The proposed project would meet the policy of meeting net density levels by providing density of 6.86 dwelling units per acre. The lots are proposed at an average size of 5,350 square feet. The range of lot sizes is 4,504 to 8,318 square feet. Both the Development Standards and the Comprehensive Plan polices limit the height of building to two stories in the R-8 zone. The question of transportation and pedestrian connections between neighborhoods is difficult on Renton Hill due to its situation of being isolated from the rest of the city and having limited access. There will be pedestrian connections throughout the neighborhood from new sidewalks that are going to be added and the Cedar River Pipeline. Three areas in the proposed site plan in the proximity of the entryway are going to be set aside as commonly held open spaces. It is not anticipated that the vegetation will be retained, but they will be landscaped. Staff recommends that a landscape plan be submitted to Development Services for review prior to building pennits. The Comprehensive Plan included a forecast of Renton's traffic increase for a twenty year period. In the plan, it was estimated that there would be a 52% increase in traffic in Renton between 1990 and 2010. The estimated traffic increase on Cedar and Renton Avenues on Renton Hill would be approximately 25%from the proposed project. This appears to be consistent with projected city-wide traffic volume increases. Ms. Higgins discussed how the project meets the Housing Mandates in the Comprehensive Plan. The Growth Management Act requires the City to plan how it will accommodate its share of the projected population growth. The projected population growth for a 20 year period is determined by the Puget Sound Regional Council, and it was distributed to all cities and counties in the Puget Sound region. The Comprehensive Plan has to address how the City will provide housing for all economic segments of the City's population, and delineates the strategies for doing that. Ms Higgins reviewed some of the policies of the Housing Element and explained how they are met by the proposal. Ms. Higgins continued by reviewing how the proposal meets the Environmental Element of the Comprehensive Plan. Some of the policies that staff felt were met by the proposed project are: minimizing erosion and sedimentation by requiring appropriate construction techniques; implementing surface water management systems which protect natural features; promoting the return of precipitation to the soil at natural rates near where it falls through the use of detention ponds, grassy swales, and infiltration; promoting development design which minimizes impermeable surface coverage; and managing the cumulative effects of storm water through a combination of engineering and preservation of natural systems. Slopes on the property were probably created by surface mining activity, and are therefore exempt from the Critical Areas Ordinance. The stormwater control system would provide adequate protection of the City's water resource. The applicant has estimated that approximately 389 trees sized 6 inches in diameter and greater Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 16 and of various types would be removed from the property for construction. The applicant must adhere to the requirements of the Forest Practices Act. There are several areas in the project that are going to be preserved as "landscape tracts." The proposed project would meet all of the underlying zoning standards for the R-8 zone. The front,rear, and side setback lines indicated on the Preliminary Plat plan meet the minimum setback requirements for the R-8 zone. The maximum building coverage in the R-8 zone is 50% of lots 5,000 square feet or smaller and 35% of, or 2,500 square feet on, lots larger than 5,000 square feet. Compliance with the building coverage regulations would be a requirement of the building permit process. Ms. Higgins next reviewed the proposal's compliance with the subdivision regulations. All lots created by the subdivision would result in legal building lots according to the regulations for the R-8 zone. All parcels must have access established to a public road,which would occur by either directly off the public roads that would be built or from the two private roads or driveway that would be placed on the property. Side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines--they would be in this project. All lot corners at intersections would have a radius of a minimum of 15 feet. Police and Fire have indicated they have sufficient resources to furnish services. The Parks and Recreation Department has also concurred that they could provide service. Renton School District has stated that new students, estimated to be approximately 25, could be accommodated in Talbot Hill Elementary School,Dimmitt Middle School, and Renton Senior High School. The School District further requested that the existing school busses be allowed to continue their route through the area,which would be allowed. The conceptual stormwater plan has been accepted by the Plan Review Division, as have the conceptual water and sanitary sewer plan. Staff recommends approval of the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat subject to the following conditions: (1)that the applicant comply with the ERC Mitigation Measures as they have been amended, (2)that all landscape tract areas,with the exception of the 5,402 square foot tract located at the entry,the private "park", and the landscape area adjacent to the storm pond be incorporated into lots already proposed, and(3) commonly held open space areas shall be enhanced prior to occupancy with landscaping including mixed deciduous and evergreen trees and plantings of native shrubs and groundcover, and the applicant shall submit a landscape plan to the Development Services Department for approval. An additional condition would be that a homeowners' association be established and that one of the requirements be that they would be responsible for maintaining the private stormwater system and the commonly held landscape area, including the 15 foot buffers. The Examiner stated that he will schedule an evening hearing to conclude this matter in order to accommodate those who have to leave due to prior commitments. The various parties will be notified of the date and time of the evening hearing. The hearing closed at 12:40 p.m. ********************************** • The hearing opened on Tuesday,December 12, 2000, at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Ms. Higgins gave a brief review of the project based on the Staff Report,which was presented at the hearing on December 16. Ms. Higgins stated that staff has added a recommendation which was not presented at the last hearing,that a Hold Harmless Agreement shall be recorded that indemnifies the City of Renton from any damage resulting from subsidence that may occur due to previous subsurface mining activities. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 17 Mr. Fike presented a timeline explaining how the design for the project developed. In March of 1999 Renton School District selected Bennett Development as the purchasers. In September 1999 the mandatory pre- application meeting was held with the City. At that time plans for a 69-lot subdivision were submitted, designed around access from Beacon Way S. ,It was subsequently determined that Beacon Way S could not be accessed off of, since it is an easement owned by the City of Seattle and they do not want it used as a public right-of-way. In January of 2000, another pre-application meeting was held with the City of Renton and a new design for the project was submitted, based on input from community groups and the Cities of Renton and Seattle. This new design eliminated the Beacon Way access and showed access off of S 7th Ct. A stub road that would cross over the pipeline and go into Philip Arnold Park was included. The City of Renton determined • • that the stub road was not needed. A design was subsequently developed showing a buffer setback along the north border of the property In April of 2000 the developer sent a submittal package to Renton Hill community leaders showing them what was going to be submitted to the City of Renton. This showed a 56-lot subdivision. In May,the City of Renton deemed the application complete,but asked that the access road across the pipeline be removed. With the removal of the access road,the project went from 56 lots to 57. The City also asked the developer to do additional traffic counts. A three-week traffic study was done during the summer which took into consideration increased traffic from sports activities held in the area. Mr. Fike submitted a study which was done by a wildlife biologist in the period since the last hearing. The report shows that there are deer on the property; however,there were no signs of deer nesting there. An eagle that nests on the south tip of Mercer Island uses the Cedar.River as a fishing ground. This may be the eagle that is seen over the Cedar River and approaching the property. There are no signs of an eagle nesting on the property. The wildlife report shows that the project has minimal, if any,wildlife assessments. Regarding the pipeline easement,Mr. Fike explained that the City of Seattle views pipeline usage as a privilege. In order to be good neighbors with the City of Renton, Seattle overlooks things such as possibly driving trucks over the pipeline rather than through the neighborhood, and school buses using the pipeline. The City of Seattle will only issue Conditional Use Permits for the pipeline. The developer has a verbal agreement with Seattle that they will be able to have emergency vehicle access on the pipeline. Ms Higgins entered an original plat map which shows the entry to River Ridge as it was proposed, crossing the School District property,then intersecting the pipeline. A letter in the files from the City of Renton's Utilities Systems Manager at the time to the Real Property Division of the Seattle Water Department explains why the entryway to River Ridge was moved into the present position, and shows further evidence that the Seattle Public Utilities does not want the pipeline to be used for general traffic. John Nelson, Peterson Consulting Engineering, 4030 Lake Washington Blvd NE, Suite 200,Kirkland, WA 98033 explained what sight distance is and what kinds there are, using a sight distances drawing. Using charts and a topographic map,he explained stopping sight distance and how it is determined for different types of vehicles and several actual road slopes in the Renton Hill Area. Mr.Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis and actually driving the roads in question,he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Larry Hobbs,Transportation Planning and Engineering,Inc.,2223 112th Avenue NE, Suite 101,Bellevue, WA 98004 stated that typically intersections are made with three or four legs; however,five-legged intersections do exist. All of the legs of the intersection are stop controlled. There are no records of any accidents at the intersection over the past five years. There is no reason to believe this intersection does not operate safely and Heritage Renton Hill • Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 18 adequately. There is enough capacity in the intersection to handle the traffic that is there now, and the future development. The intersection itself is relatively flat. Sight distance criteria does not come into effect at the intersection, since all vehicles must stop. Ms. Higgins clarified the Zoning Code as it relates to the project. In the R-8 Zone,the City requests that a developer try to have at least five units per net acre,with a maximum of eight units per net acre. If for some reason a developer chooses not to develop to the maximum density, or if they are trying to develop below the minimum density,the City requests that the developer demonstrate that future lots could be developed on the property. The City asks for a technique called shadow platting which would create hypothetical lots that would have the proper setbacks and be conforming lots given the requirement of that zone so that in the future those lots could be developed. Mark Mehlhaff, 532 Grant Ave S,Renton, WA 98055 addressed the issue of road safety on Renton Avenue S. Many drivers tend to use excessive speed going up the hill because of the steepness of the grade. This, combined with limited sight distances and cars parked on the side of the street, creates a dangerous situation. Mr. Mehlhaff asked why Puget Drive and the pipeline cannot be opened up for use of construction vehicles and general traffic to alleviate the congested conditions on Renton Avenue S and Cedar Avenue. Nancy Liston, 1518 Beacon Way S,Renton, WA 98055 spoke to the issues of tranquility and quality of life on Renton Hill. Ms.Liston expressed concern that the tranquility of the area would be greatly impacted by the increased traffic,noise, dirt and dust generated by the large trucks and construction equipment . She stated that the streets and parks on the hill were never intended for the increased number of vehicles and people who will be occupying 57 homes. Ms. Liston also discussed the issue of intersection safety. She has witnessed people not obeying the stop signs, and has seen many near-misses. Ms. Liston also expressed concern about deer crossing the street,particularly at night, and the safety of bicyclists on the streets. John Giuliani, 1400 South 7th Street,Renton, WA stated that the new exit off of Renton Hill has no bearing on the traffic on Renton Avenue, since it is necessary to travel on Renton Avenue to get to the new exit. Mr. Giuliani further stated that when Renton Ave was repaved,he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. Quentin Ellis, 715 High Ave S., Renton, WA 98055 stated that there have been a lot of sophisticated studies made by the City and others regarding this project,but it all boils down to one word--infrastructure. The infrastructure that has to be maintained is not there. He cited a newspaper article regarding the Habitat program's plan to build low income housing on a ten acre parcel in Snoqualmie Ridge. They are only proposing to build 50 houses on those ten acres. This proposed project plans to build 57 homes in an area with only one street that is only 23.6 feet wide, as opposed to the normal 40 to 50 foot width. He expressed concern about the mine shafts in the area and the possibility of sink holes developing with the increased traffic on Renton Avenue S. Mr. Ellis challenged Bennett Development's traffic engineer to substantiate his statement that there would not be an increase in the number of accidents on Renton Hill. He questioned how, considering the 25% increase in traffic anticipated,the engineer could make that statement. Wendy Fulfer, 1729 SE 7th Ct,Renton, WA 98055 stated she lives in River Ridge. The intersection where she comes out of her development is already a five-way intersection. Adding another street would only add to the difficult situation at the intersection. Ms. Fulfer added that she personally makes eight to ten trips off the hill Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 19 every day. She expressed concern about the deer and other wildlife in the area, including nesting eagles, if the property is developed. Sharon Herman, 711 Jones Ave S,Renton, WA 98055 stated that the contractor of River Ridge had the opportunity to build 23 homes. He elected to build only 12 homes out of respect to the neighborhood and the • residents of Renton Hill. Ms. Herman further stated that she feels the property value of her home will drop because of all the traffic and the smaller homes that will not fit in with the rest of Renton Hill. Becky Lamke, 415 Cedar Ave S, Renton, WA 98055 stated that she feels the massive size of the project is an undue burden to the current residents of the Hill. The number of cars and speed of the vehicles on Cedar Ave is already excessive for the number of homes that are there. The project should be forced to have their entrance and exit off of Puget Drive. The increased traffic and safety issues due to the slope of the streets all lead to Puget Drive being the best alternative. Ms. Lamke asked why Renton School District is still listed as the owner. She questioned whether the property been sold, or if that is contingent on whether the project is approved. Ms. Lamke stated that a clear cutting of this ten acres of mature forest could be detrimental to the Cedar River and to salmon recovery. Mike Fulfer, 1729 SE 7th Ct,Renton, WA 98055 asked why the buffer on the north edge of the project was included in the setback of the homes and not separate from the lots. He asked who is responsible for providing and maintaining the vegetation in the buffer. He expressed concern about the increased number of trips per day as a result of the new homes. He further stated that the project will be out of place because of the density of the homes, and will change the character of the neighborhood and quality of life of the residents. Mr. Fulfer discussed stopping distances of vehicles and expressed concern that the stopping distances involved are right on the limit of safety. Being on the edge of safety should only be allowed in a controlled environment such as a race track,not on Renton Hill. Bentley Oaks, 1321 S 7th, Renton, WA 98055 addressed the sight distances issue. Most people drive in excess of 30-35 mph on Renton Ave. S. Considering the reaction time required, and trying to find a place to stop because of parked cars along the street, it can be a dangerous situation. It is important that the human factor be considered rather than just using an engineering study. Doug Brandt 610 Renton Ave. S,Renton, WA 98055 asked if Mr.Nelson made specific measurements on the two crests that exist on Renton Ave. S. or if he relied only on charts for his analysis. Mark Johnson, 316 Renton Ave. S.,Renton, WA 98055 questioned the 6% grade, which is an average. The transition between 3% and 9% is sudden, so that close to the end of the 3% grade, it is effectively a 9%grade, not an average of a 6% grade. That would make a dramatic difference in the calculations. He expressed concern that cars are moving in both directions,the road is narrow, cars and trucks are parked on the side, and there is nowhere to go. Regarding speeds on the bridges,Mr. Johnson stated that speed limits are not observed. He feels that adding more cars is not something the road can handle safely. Dana Calhoun,433 Cedar Ave. S,Renton,WA 98055 stated that she feels the sidewalks, particularly on Renton Ave. S, are inadequate. The intersection at 7th and Beacon Way is very busy, especially during softball games. There are no crosswalks, and sometimes no sidewalks. Bicycling on the streets is dangerous. Ms. Calhoun said she backs into her driveway because she does not want to have to back onto the street considering the dangerous conditions that exist. Heritage Renton Hill - - Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 20 Bill Collins, 420 Cedar Ave. S.,Renton WA 98055 entered traffic count charts that are a graphic version of traffic issues on Renton Hill. Using these charts,Mr. Collins explained how the increased number of cars would impact traffic conditions on various roads at various times of the day in the Renton Hill area. Rosemary Grassi, 422 Cedar Ave. S,Renton, WA 98055 stated that this traffic count information was provided by Mr.Mar from the City. It is the City's latest official count of traffic on Renton Hill. The counts show that there would be 813 passes of vehicles on Cedar Avenue per day. On Renton Avenue S,there will be around 1,100 passes per day. There is also a problem of enforcement regarding stop signs. Ms. Grassi stated the Mr. Potter,who is president of the Falcon Ridge Homeowners Association,has signed a statement that he is opposed to this development. She also expressed concern that their appears to be an effort to"dump" affordable housing and apartments from other cities into Renton. Linda McManus, 530 Renton Ave. S.,Renton, WA 98055 addressed the issue of accidents on Renton Ave. S. Ms.McManus stated that she was personally involved in an accident last summer on Renton Ave. S. The person coming down the hill failed to yield, and Ms. McManus' vehicle was forced into a telephone pole. She does not know why this accident wasn't recorded. Ms. McManus stated she has personally witnessed many near-accidents on Renton Hill S. She expressed her concern about safety issues in general in the Renton Hill area. Bart Bennett, 1800 SE 7t11 Ct.,Renton, WA 98055 expressed concern that Lot#35 does not have the 15 foot • greenbelt that the other lots in the development have. He also expressed concern about the possibility of the S- way intersection being changed into a 7-way intersection. 'He questioned the distances of the stop signs from the intersection. Mr.Bennett also stated that the intersection of Renton Ave. S and 7th is a 3-way stop,which is also extremely dangerous because of the steepness of the hill. He feels that his project is too large for the street system to handle. Mr.Bennett stated that he lives on Lot#5 in River Ridge. He has a sink hole in his back yard which he has dumped about 50 bags of sand into, and it is still fairly deep. Ruth Larson, 714 High Avenue S,Renton, WA 98055 stated that the residents of Renton Hill did not oppose River Ridge because it brought sewer service to those people living above Renton Avenue S. They were not opposed to Falcon Ridge. The only problem with Falcon Ridge was that their original plan was to remove the gate and use the pipeline for access. The residents did not want the gate removed because of traffic concerns. Falcon Ridge put in their own access road instead. Ms. Larson reviewed the safety issue on Renton Avenue S, and stated emphatically that this issue must be addressed before approval. Kayren Kittrick stated that there is an enforcement issue regarding traffic in the Renton Hill area. The City has programs in place for monitoring these things, and the Police Department should be made aware of the problem. If the City does improvements on Renton Avenue South, it means the streets and sidewalks will be widened,which will take away from front yards along the street and actually increase traffic speeds on the street will increase. The blocking off of the lane on Mill Avenue by Metro is temporary during the construction of the Transit Center. Regarding reports of accidents on Renton Hill,these were done by checking Police reports. The Police Department reported three accidents in five years. All of them involved hitting of stationery objects. Ms. Kittrick stated that pipeline is allowed to be used for emergency access only,not for general access. The pipeline is gated at the request of the local citizens in order to decrease traffic,and can be opened only for emergency access. Regarding sink holes,Ms.Kittrick stated that the City maintenance crews have been monitoring the sink hole on Renton Avenue S. She has no other reports of sink holes in the area. Heritage Renton Hill - Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 21 Ms. Higgins stated that the Geotechnical Report indicates there is no surface evidence of former coal mines. The area is very inadequately mapped, so no one really knows if there are mines in the area or where they are located. Residents of the area have had problems with sink holes. That is the reason the City wanted to make sure that new residents would at least receive a warning that this could be a problem so that they could plan for it by having a structural engineer design the foundations of their house. Mr.Nelson discussed the enforcement issue on Renton Hill. The developer cannot and should not try to accommodate people who do not follow the law. Mr.Nelson discussed reaction times and sight distances and stopping times of trucks. He also described the locations where measurements were made for the study and the relationship of road grades and sight distances. Mr.Nelson described how the intersections at 7th and Renton Avenue and 7th and Cedar Avenue are controlled with stop signs. Mark McGinnis Geotech Consultants, 13256 NE 20th Street#16,Bellevue, WA 98005 addressed the issue of coal mines and the question of a sink hole at Lot#5 in River Ridge. There is a deep mine under this area that is over 500 feet below ground surface. The shallower mine workings,which are the ones that seem to be giving the most problems on Renton Hill, do not extend that far to the east into the River Ridge development or into the proposed project's property. There are shallow mines under the western portion of Renton Hill,but they would not be under Lot#5. Regarding the subsidence on Renton Avenue S,Mr. McGinnis stated that he drove the street again and noticed many patches in the road, indicating some repaving and filling. The size of the patches is relatively small. Subsidence associated with a coal mine,related either to an air shaft or the collapse of the tunnel itself,would be several thousand square feet in size. The small areas of subsidence and patching on Renton Avenue S appear to be related to utilities, improper compaction, or soft road sub-grade conditions that have been dealt with over time. Considering the depths of the mines, and the time that has elapsed since the last known workings under the property(at least 75 years) if large subsidence were to occur, it would have occurred already. Ms. Higgins discussed the issue of the increased setback on Lot#35 and the reasons for it. Ms. Higgins explained that we encourage quality development by looking at the layout of the plan and making sure it meets the requirements of the development standards that are set forth in the Code. Those are the minimal standards the City Council has felt should be applied in each neighborhood. Other factors that are looked at are the context of the project, development that has taken place in the past, and how the City plans to develop in the future. The City has housing goals that have been set by the Puget Sound Regional Council as to the amount of population that Renton, as well as other cities that are within the Growth Management Act,must meet. Regarding the question of stormwater drainage,Ms. Higgins stated that roof drains will be allowed to infiltrate. Stormwater from the driveways and streets would be collected in the stormwater pond,where it would receive treatment prior to release. It would be a controlled release, as there have been some stormwater problems in that area. Mr. Hobbs stated that the January 2000 Traffic Study was done based on the then current lot number count of 60 lots. This would mean a net reduction of 3 p.m. peak hour trips, and roughly 30 daily trips. The Traffic Report shows that there will be less than 1,500 trips per day on Renton Avenue S,which will be well below capacity for a one-way section. Mr. Hobbs stated that there would be an increased traffic volume on Renton Hill from this project. Regarding safety on Renton Hill,Mr. Hobbs said his statement that accidents should increased was based on accidents of record. The enforcement issue of people not obeying stop signs and speed limits is a consideration. Heritage Renton Hill - I Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 22 Mr. Giuliani stated that the air shafts from the underground mines are made of wood timbers and are approximately 14 to 15 feet in diameter. He expressed his concern that the wood timbers will rot over time. There have already been three incidents of cave-ins. One took place across the street from his home. The air shafts were not blocked off from the mines below,they were filled and blocked off 50 or 75 feet from the top. The passage of time makes the situation more dangerous,not less so. Mr.Brandt questioned exactly where Mr.Nelson made the sight distance measurements on Renton Hill. Mr.Nelson replied that graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar,then all the way down Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground field work was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. Jeff Schultek, 613 Grant Avenue S,Renton,WA 98055 stated that sometime between 1980 and 1982, a garage was taken down through a sink hole at 820 Renton Avenue S. Mr. Ed Gouch owned the property at that time. Mr. Schultek expressed his concern about safety issues on Renton Hill, particularly in regard to emergency vehicle access. Ms. McManus expressed her concern that the Geotechnical Report has a disclaimer on it. Ms. McManus stated that she has a sinkhole on the side of her property. Her neighbor,Marie Overman, has had to have coal mining engineers flown in from Montana because her driveway caved in. Ms. Gygi stated that Bennett Development does not object to the idea of a Hold Harmless agreement that would be a covenant against the land itself. Bennett Development does object to the idea of a bond being placed that would the hold the developer liable into the future. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this appeal. There was no one else wishing to speak. The hearing closed at 9:00 p.m. • PRELIMINARY PLAT FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS &RECOMMENDATION Having reviewed the record in this matter,the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1. The applicant,Ryan Fike,Bennett Development filed a request for approval of a 57-lot Preliminary Plat together with Tracts for open space. 2. The yellow file containing the staff report,the State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) documentation and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit#1. 3. The Environmental Review Committee(ERC),the City's responsible official, issued a Declaration of Non-Significance-Mitigated(DNS-M)for the subject proposal. An appeal of that determination was filed by the Renton Hill Community Association. A hearing on that appeal was consolidated with the hearing on this plat. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 23 4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter. 5. The subject site is located near the intersection of Beacon Way SE, S 7th Court and S 7th Street. The property is located immediately across from Philip Arnold Park. 6. The subject site a triangular parcel approximately 1.114 feet by 818 feet by 829 feet. 7. The subject site is approximately 10.35 acres or 450,846 square feet in area. 8. The subject site has rolling terrain but has steeper slopes along the northeast corner of the site. There are also some steeper slopes on the interior of the subject site that were determined to be manmade as part of past mining or quarrying activity. An exemption from steep slope regulations was issued administratively since the steeper slopes are not natural. 9. Although the slopes are not regulated by the Land Clearing and other development regulations,the ERC imposed a series of conditions to control erosion and deal with geotechnical issues. The subject site is located within Aquifer Protection Area 2. 10. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1861 enacted in February 1961. 11. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family- 8 dwelling units/acre). It received this designation in June 1993. 12. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of single family uses. 13. The subject site is vacant. It currently is owned by the Renton School District but the applicant has an option to purchase the property. 14. The applicant proposes dividing the subject site into 57 single family lots. There would also be tracts for storm water detention and open space. Staff has recommended that most of these tracts be incorporated into adjacent lots to minimize potential maintenance issues. 15. The development of the subject site would require tree removal. Approximately 389 trees of 6 inches or greater diameter would be removed to allow for the construction of roads,building pads and storm drainage systems. A Class IV permit will be required to convert forest land to residential purposes. The applicant has indicated an intention to save some trees near the detention pond and property entrance if grading work permits. 16. The lots range in size from 4,504 square feet to approximately 8,318 square feet. Staff estimates that the average lot size would be approximately 5,350 square feet. The minimum lot size permitted in the R-8 zone is 4,500 square feet. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 24 17. The Beacon Way Seattle Pipeline Road runs in a southeast to northwest diagonal along the southwest angle of the subject site. It connects to Puget Drive SE and Royal Hills Drive SE on the east. The roadway is not a public roadway and has a gated barricade to prevent through traffic. Philip Arnold Park is located on the southwest side of that roadway. The road does provide access to Philip Arnold Park from the east. School buses also use this road approaching from the east, and a school bus stop is located east of the barricade. School buses do not negotiate the steep hills from the I-405 side of Renton Hill. 18. Apparently,the pipeline road was open as a through-street in the past but was closed to reduce traffic passing across Renton Hill and down the steep roadways east of I-405. This also coincided with the then limitation of only one crossing of I-405 that also crossed railroad tracks that could totally block access to the hill. Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings are elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. 19. The proposed layout would create a looped roadway in the interior of the plat with a cul-de-sac road providing access to the southeast corner of the subject site. A gated, emergency access connection would be installed between the dead end cul-de-sac and the Seattle Pipeline roadway,with Seattle's permission. 20. The proposed roadways would be 42 feet wide instead of the standard 50 feet, since the applicant requested an administrative modification to reduce width,which was approved. Road dimensions are determined by the Director administratively. 21. The lots would be located along the perimeter of the triangular shaped parcel as well as in the interior of the loop. The interior block would contain 13 single family lots as well as a"park"tract. 22. Eight lots would be served by either pipe stem or private roadways. Proposed Lots 14, 15, 16 and 17 would be served by private access easement or roads. Similarly,Proposed Lots 20, 21 and 22 would be served by private access roadway. Proposed Lot 35 would be located on a pipe stem driveway. 23. In order to prepare the site for the building pads and the new roads,the applicant will clear most of the vegetation from the site. Some trees may be preserved near the detention system. The slopes adjacent to Proposed Lot 35 would remain undisturbed, since there are steeper slopes that will be protected. 24. The applicant proposes open space and the storm water detention pond at the entrance to the plat. The road will pass through this open space. As the roadway splits to form the loop roadway, a small park will be located on the inside of the "Y" in the road. The applicant has proposed three triangular landscaped areas along the pipeline road to fill in between rectangular lots. Since the pipeline road runs at an angle, creating rectangular lots required these open space areas. As noted, staff recommended that these areas be incorporated into the adjacent lots to avoid maintenance problems. 25. Development of 57 single family homes will generate approximately 545 vehicle trips per day(based on approximately 9.55 trips per dwelling). It is anticipated that approximately 10% of the traffic trips will occur at each of the morning and evening peak hours. Staff has also estimated that the 57 homes will increase traffic on Renton Hill by approximately 25 percent. This is based on the fact that there Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 25 are approximately 200 homes on the hill currently. The ERC imposed mitigation measures for fee generation. Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. 26. The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site,Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S 3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. The LOS for the first two intersections will remain at B,while the latter two intersections would remain at LOS A. 27. An analysis of historical traffic accidents showed only three minor accidents and no accidents resulting in injuries. Residents report that there have been a number of"near-misses"and residents living along Renton and Cedar must exercise diligence in using the driveways. 28. The width and slopes of Renton Avenue and Cedar and the other roads serving the subject site from downtown Renton,the only open access to the hill, do not meet current development standards. At the same time, staff reports that these roads have capacity to handle additional traffic and that these roads can also safely handle the additional traffic. Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. 29. The development of the subject site will generate approximately 25 school age children. These students would be spread among the different grades of the Renton School District. 30. The City will provide sanitary sewer service and domestic water. 31. The ERC imposed additional storm water detention requirements due to the topography and location of the subject site. The proposal will have to comply with the newest King County requirements. Staff reports that the conceptual drainage plan appears to adequately serve the subject site. Staff recommended a homeowners association be required to maintain the detention system: 32. While traffic and transportation issues were a main concern of the neighbors,the Transportation Division did not appear at the public hearing. Questions were handled by other planning and development staff. 33. In addition to the steep slopes along the northeast margins of the subject site,the subject site is located over old, abandoned coal mine tunnels and other workings. Old records and maps were also reviewed. The property was surveyed and inspected and did not show any evidence of mines or shafts. It does appear that the site was a quarry at one time. There are disturbed soils and slopes. A geotechnical analysis provides methods for preventing foundations from being affected if there should be subsidence. The studies also had other suggestions for dealing with the subject site,but indicated that there should not be any problems evident at the surface. Apparently,there have been incidents on the hill of subsidence in the past. The geotechnical information shows that the soils can bear development. The City did recommend that the applicant execute a"hold harmless" agreement regarding the coal mines in case some problems were to arise. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 26 34. In order to develop the subject site,the applicant will be excavating and filling the subject site. Originally,the applicant was going to export and import materials to level the site. The applicant proposes to alter those plans and do a balanced cut and fill. This will reduce the amount of materials that need to be transported to or from the subject site,reducing the number of truck trips substantially. 35. Development of the subject site will not change the single family character of the area but will generate additional population and traffic as well as other attendant changes more people bring to an area. 36. The homeowners would be required to maintain the open space tracts at the entrance and the park area. 37. All of the Findings and Conclusions of the companion SEPA Appeal Report are incorporated into this report by reference. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The public interest in approving a preliminary plat depends on balancing a variety of interests. The City is bound by the Growth Management Act and has determined the appropriate density under that act for R-8 Districts is between 5 and 8 dwelling units per acre. For this parcel with a net site area of 8.31 acres,the 57 homes yields a density of 6.86 dwelling units per acre. At the same time,the increase in traffic projected for this project is approximately 25 percent over current traffic. This is not an issue that merely equates to LOS and technical issues. This means approximately 550 additional trips will be traveling up and down very steep,narrow roads. Staff noted that the Comprehensive Plan forecast a growth of 52 percent, but those projections would clearly have a lot of that traffic directed efficiently to arterial streets and not narrow streets with single family homes located on very steep streets. These narrow roads serve as collector arterials,but are in no way equal in width or slope to roads that would generally serve that purpose. Renton and Cedar and the streets nearest the subject site are local residential access streets. In fact,they are substandard streets in both width and slope angle. Five hundred additional trips per day is a substantial impact on the homes along the route from the subject site to the downtown area. The public interest sought to be served by approving a plat is not solely served by providing additional housing that meets density standards and growth management standards that do not consider the neighborhood characteristics, and particularly the street characteristics. The public interest is served when one balances density with the impacts of development on other homes and their residents. Engineering design standards to not measure or balance these impacts. They clinically decide that a certain pavement width is adequate to accommodate any additional 500 trips per day,without weighing the affects on adjacent residents. The number of trips will balloon from approximately 2,000 trips per day to 2,500 on Renton and Cedar. Similarly, engineering values on sight distance over the crest of a hill cannot discount the neighbors evidence of"near-miss" accidents as vehicles attempt to avoid each other when negotiating the steep,narrow streets. The engineering numbers do not necessarily account for slowed reaction time of elderly drivers or the impatience of teenage drivers. Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 27 Therefore, it seems that balancing the demands of growth management with the impacts on the residents along the commute route requires reducing the scale or scope of the project and the density of that project. The Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan both provide a range. While it has been generally the case that the density should be as great as possible to meet the housing demands,there may be appropriate times when that density should be reduced modestly to effectuate a balancing of interests. While any reduction will be modest, it still would help to ameliorate the impacts on the existing community. Scaling the plat back to 50 homes would provide a density of 6.02 dwelling units per acre. This falls within the permissible range of 5 to 8 found in the regulations but reduces the impacts. There would be approximately 50 less vehicle trips and while,not a substantial amount, it would go to lessen the impacts on the residential homes along the route and reduce the potential for vehicle conflicts somewhat. Reducing the density of this plat will reduce the untoward impacts on the existing residents. 2. The applicant will probably be heard to argue that the SEPA review did not warrant this reduction and that no significant impacts having more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment were found. "Significance" in terms of SEPA and whether it amounts to EIS threshold "significance" is entirely different than the localized but very consequential impacts of 500 to 600 additional vehicle trips on a local,residential street. Just because an issue is not so large or significant to trigger the need for EIS preparation does not mean it does have an impact which should not be mitigated when determining whether a plat serves the public use and interest. In this case,the additional traffic vis a vis the streets that would serve this traffic demand a density reduction. 3. The applicant could choose to implement such a reduction by either maintaining the general lot size and increasing the open space and secondarily preserving additional trees or by modestly increasing the lot sizes of the remaining 50 lots. Rather then specify the method,the recommendation would be to allow the applicant flexibility in this redesign. 4. In general,with the proposed density reduction,the proposed plat appears to serve the public use and interest. It does provide additional housing choices in an area that can be adequately served by water and sewer and to a lesser extent,the steep narrow roads of Renton Hill. The plat is somewhat isolated from surrounding development and buffers between the subject site and adjacent properties have been provided. 5. The plans show that site can deal with its storm water runoff. As noted, it can be served by City water and sewer. 6. It would appear that there is a remote potential for instability due to the underlying coal workings. There remains the potential to discover overgrown or ineffectively sealed off shafts. The applicant will be required to follow the procedures outlined in the geotechnical reports to develop the site and home foundations. The recommendation of staff for a hold harmless agreement seems reasonable in the event a unforeseen settlement occurs in the future. Potential residents should be given adequate notice that their is some potential for a coal mine subsidence to occur. 7. The proposed layout appears reasonable. In most cases where "interior" lots would be accessed by easement or private roads or pipe stems,these lots are not sandwiched into compounds surrounded on Heritage Renton Hill Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 28 four side by other homes. A number of these lots are located on the pipeline or at the open space edges of this site. 8. The ERC imposed conditions to avoid exacerbating drainage problems down stream and to avoid erosion. Storm water will be contained and diverted to avoid excessive flows. The development to R-8 density standards and the need to create building pads and streets means that most of the vegetation will be removed from the subject site. 9. The proposed plat will provide additional housing choices in an area in which urban services are provided or can reasonably be provided. 10. Development of the site will introduce additional noise and population. 11. The plat provides reasonably rectangular lots and lots that meet the dimensional requirements of code. The open space between lots along the pipeline road does appear to be a potential maintenance problem,particularly with access to the pipeline road roundabout or circuitous from the main plat. These open space parcels should be absorbed into the adjacent lots. 12. The other open space parcels should be restricted by language on the face of the plat that preserves their open space characteristics and precludes selling them off for development in the future. 13. The plat will have its main access to a street which appears capable of providing a safe controlled intersection with appropriate sight and stopping distances. There will be a need to provide assurance that the Seattle pipeline road can be used for emergency access. 14. As a final recommendation,this office would recommend to the City Council that it explore providing the primary access to this plat from the pipeline road with a gated access to the remainder of Renton Hill. If such access could be granted,the narrow and steep streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density. This office was not fully permitted to explore whether this was at all possible. This office only has anecdotal evidence that Seattle, at one time,permitted unobstructed access to Renton Hill from the east. This office does not suggest a full opening but again,recommends that primary access to this plat might be from the east with a gated emergency access at SE 7th Court to prevent through traffic movements. 15. In conclusion,the proposed preliminary plat should be approved by the City Council subject to the conditions noted below. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council should approve the Preliminary Plat subject to the following conditions: 1. The plat should be reduced from 57 to 50 single family lots with a density of 6.02 dwelling units per acre. This falls within the permissible range of 5 to 8 dwelling units per acre. 2. The applicant shall comply with the conditions imposed by the ERC. Heritage Renton Hill - Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25,2001 Page 29 3. The plat shall contain language acceptable to the City Attorney regarding the recreational and open space respectively and precluding development of them. 4. All landscape tract areas,with the exception of the 5,402 sf tract located at the development entry,the 3,042 sf private"park", and the landscape area abutting the stormwater tract, shall be incorporated into lots already proposed within the plat. No additional building lots are to be created. A revised plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Division prior to receiving construction permits. 5. Commonly held open space areas shall be enhanced,prior to occupancy,with landscaping including mixed deciduous and evergreen trees and plantings of native shrubs and groundcover. The applicant shall submit a landscape plan to the Development Services Department for approval. 6. A Hold Harmless Agreement shall be recorded that indemnifies the City of Renton from any damage resulting from subsidence that may occur due to previous subsurface mining activities. 7. The applicant will have to secure in writing permission to use the Seattle pipeline road for emergency access. 8. The homeowners would be required to maintain the open space tracts at the entrance and the park area. ORDERED THIS 25th day of January, 2001.

We believe that the proposed plan achieves these goals and that the Plan is sensitive to the surrounding homes and park. As you review the plan you should be able to see how it -- - accomplishes the following results: • 1. The 5-way intersection is reduced to a 4-way intersection 2. A portion of Beacon Way South is closed to traffic and creates additional public open space 3. Access to the new development is at a point most distant from the River Ridge development, allowing the maximum buffer. 4. Access is maintained to the Phillip Arnold Park parking access 5. A significant setback from the Homes in the new development to the existing homes on Renton Hill and the Intersection on SE 7th is created.

A community fence and landscaping tract along Beacon Way South is created to screen the homes from the park and provide the new neighbors with privacy. This proposed tract includes areas set aside for increased intensity of buffer landscaping to allow for large trees and a varied landscape along the property facing the park. 7. The number of homes,which back up to the park is minimized and their angle to the park allows for a more random and varied for the community as,viewed from the Park. 8. A 15 wide Landscape Buffer is provided along the property line adjacent to the homes in the River Ridge development. Our plan is to submit a formal application to the City of Renton by mid April.

Dear Mr. Fike: We are pleased to present this geotechnical engineering report for the proposed residential subdivision to be constructed at the Heritage Arnold property in Renton. The scope of our work consisted of exploring site surface and subsurface conditions, and then developing this report to provide recommendations for general earthwork, design criteria for foundations, retaining walls, and pavements and mitigation of potential coal mine subsidence hazards. This work was authorized by your acceptance of our proposal, P-5004, dated August 16, 1999. The subsurface conditions of the proposed building site were explored with fourteen test pits that encountered native topsoil and weathered, gravelly sand overlying dense to very dense, gravelly sand. Loose fill with concrete rubble, construction debris, and household garbage was encountered as deep as 13 feet below existing grade on the western portion of the site. It appears that the small rise in this area consists of fill. Single-family residences may be supported on conventional foundations bearing directly on native, medium-dense to dense, gravelly sands. Depending on the final site grades and on the locations of the residences, some overexcavation may be required to expose competent bearing soils. The fill soils are not suitable for supporting the loads associated with the proposed development; foundations in these areas either will need to be overexcavated, or be pile- or pier-supported. The site is underlain by three deep coal seams, which were mined until the early 1 920s. Hart Crowser, Inc. developed a report detailing mine activity and potential subsidence issues at the subject site. Applicable recommendations from their study have been incorporated into this report. The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Transmittal Letter—Page 2 The attached report contains a discussion of the study and our recommendations. Please contact us if there are any questions regarding this report, or if we can be of further assistance during the design and construction phases of this project.

GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING STUDY Proposed Heritage Arnold Project South 7th Street and Beacon Way Southeast Renton, Washington This report presents the findings and recommendations of our geotechnical engineering study for the site of the proposed subdivision in Renton. We were provided with a topographic map. Mead Gilman &Associates developed this plan, which is dated July 28, 1999. Development of the property is in the planning stage, and detailed plans were not made available to us. Based on conversations with Ryan Fike, we understand that the site will be developed with a number of single-family residences. We anticipate that access to the residences will be via paved common streets and private driveways. We were also provided with the Abandoned Mine Assessment, prepared by Hart Crowser, Inc. This report, which is dated August 16, 1999, discusses historical coal mining activity at the subject site and provides recommendations to protect the development from significant hazards presented by potential ground subsidence. . SITE CONDITIONS SURFACE CONDITIONS The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site. The triangular, approximately 10.4-acre site is located near the intersection of South 7th Street and Beacon Way Southeast. The property is bordered on its southern, angled side by the Cedar River Pipeline easement, and on its northern and eastern sides by single-family residences and undeveloped woodlands, respectively. 1 The northeastern property corner.is located at the top of a steep, undeveloped slope. This slope has an estimated height of 30 feet and an inclination of 50 to 60 percent. The terrain on the site is generally rolling, with small rises and hollows located throughout the parcel. It appears that some grading has been done on the property, resulting in a steep, U-shaped cut slope located near the center of the site. An abandoned gravel road winds through the southeastern side of the site and ends at the steep cut slope. The flat area at the base of the cut slope may have been a gravel pit at some time during the past. The small rise located on the western side of this flat area consists of fill; some pea gravel is visible on the surface. The westernmost portion of the site is strewn with large amounts of household garbage and construction debris, and appears to have been used as a dump. The eastern portion of the site is densely wooded with tall evergreen and deciduous trees. The ground is covered with ferns, blueberry and blackberry bushes, and other low-growth vegetation. No obvious signs of slope instability were observed during our site visit. Additionally, no visible indications of air shafts, trenches, or ground subsidence were observed on the portions of the site that we traversed. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS,INC: • The Bennett Corporation - JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 2 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The subsurface conditions were explored by excavating fourteen test pits at the approximate locations shown on the Site Exploration Plan, Plate 2. The field exploration program was based upon the proposed construction and required design criteria, the site topography and access, the subsurface conditions revealed during excavation, and the scope of work outlined in our proposal. The test pits were excavated on August 26, 1999 with a trackhoe. A geotechnical engineer from our staff observed the excavation process, logged the test pits, and obtained representative samples of the soil encountered. "Grab" samples of selected subsurface soil were collected from the backhoe bucket. The Test Pit Logs are attached to this report as Plates 3 through 9. The test pits encountered native topsoil overlying loose, gravelly sand that became medium-dense to dense with depth. This native sand contained occasional boulders. The test pits on the westernmost corner of the site encountered loose fill that contained construction debris and concrete and asphalt rubble to depths of 10 to 13 feet. Native sand was encountered underlying the fill, except in Test Pit 3, which revealed fill to the maximum 12-foot depth that was possible. The final logs represent our interpretations of the field logs. The stratification lines on the logs represent the approximate boundaries between soil types at the exploration locations. The actual transition between soil types may be gradual, and subsurface conditions can vary between exploration locations. The logs provide specific subsurface information only at the locations tested. The relative densities and moisture descriptions indicated on the test pit logs are interpretive descriptions based on the conditions observed during excavation. The compaction of backfill was not in the scope of our services. Loose soil will therefore be found in the area of the test pits. If this presents a problem, the backfill will need to be removed and replaced with structural fill during construction. Groundwater No groundwater seepage or wet soil was observed during excavation. It should be noted that groundwater levels vary seasonally with rainfall and other factors; the absence of groundwater in our explorations does not eliminate the possibility that groundwater could be encountered during future excavations. However, due to the granular nature of the site soils, encountering significant near-surface groundwater is unlikely. We anticipate that groundwater could be found between the near-surface weathered soil and the underlying denser soil. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS GENERAL Based on our explorations at the subject site, it is our opinion that construction of the proposed single-family residences is feasible from a geotechnical engineering standpoint. The proposed residences may be supported on conventional foundations bearing directly on medium-dense to dense, native soil. Depending on final site grading, some overexcavation may be required to expose competent sand. The loose fill encountered on the western corner of.the site is not suitable GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 3 to support the loads associated with the proposed development. The fill should be removed from building areas, or deep foundations should extend to the underlying, native, gravelly sand. We can provide recommendations and design criteria for driven piles or drilled piers, if requested. The steep slope near the northeast corner of the property may experience shallow slope movement in the future. To protect against structural damage, houses and other occupied buildings should be set back at least 25 feet from this slope. No clearing or grading should occur within 10 feet of the slope's crest. Water from drains and impervious surfaces should not be directed toward the steep slope. The site is underlain by three deep coal seams which,were mined until the early 1920s. Hart Crowser, Inc. completed an assessment of the historical mine use and potential hazards associated with development over abandoned mines. Their study concludes that there is a risk of noticeable differential foundation settlement due to ground subsidence. However, the maximum calculated ground strain would result in a differential settlement of approximately 3 inches in a distance of 50 feet. Because of the approximately 80 years that have elapsed since the last documented mining, it is likely that most subsidence has already occurred. Therefore, the risk of significant area-wide subsidence is low. We highlight the following recommendations as applicable to the proposed development: • All footings should be continuous, with increased steel reinforcement, to span potential isolated subsidence areas and reduce differential settlement. • Post-and-beam construction should be considered to allow for relatively easy releveling in the event of settlement. • Concrete slabs-on-grade should be avoided in favor of floors on joists. • All new construction should include vapor barriers and well-ventilated crawl spaces to mitigate mine gas emissions. • Rigid structural materials, such as concrete and masonry, should be avoided where possible in favor of more flexible materials like steel and timber. • Avoid siding, weather stripping materials, and interior floor and wall coverings that are settlement-sensitive. • Plan regular maintenance for weather stripping, utilities, and mechanical systems which may be affected by building movement. At the time of earthwork, any areas of fill in structural areas should be thoroughly investigated to verify that they are not underlain by old air shafts or mine openings. Ground subsidence could result in distress or damage to pavements and utilities. Periodic maintenance and repair of these elements should be expected. Where the existing fill is not removed, on-grade elements such as pavements and slabs would experience noticeable long-term settlement. Pavements over existing fill should be underlain by at least 18 inches of gravelly structural fill to reduce, but not eliminate, differential settlement. Final slopes in developed portions of the site should be graded to an inclination of no steeper than 2:1 (Horizontal:Vertical). The erosion control measures needed during the site development will depend heavily on the weather conditions that are encountered. We anticipate that a silt fence will be needed around the GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 4 downslope side of any cleared areas. Rocked construction access roads should be extended into the site to reduce the amount of mud carried off the property by trucks and equipment. Following rough grading, it may be necessary to mulch or hydroseed bare areas that will not be immediately covered with landscaping or an impervious surface. Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be allowed to review the final development plans to verify that the recommendations presented in this report are adequately addressed in the design. Such a plan review would be additional work beyond the current scope of work for this study, and it may include revisions to our recommendations to accommodate site, development, and geotechnical constraints that become'more evident during the review process. CONVENTIONAL FOUNDATIONS The proposed single-family residences can be supported on conventional continuous footings bearing on undisturbed, native, gravelly sand, or on structural fill placed above this competent, native soil. See the later sub-section entitled GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL for recommendations regarding the placement and compaction of structural fill beneath structures.. Adequate compaction of structural fill should be verified with frequent density testing during fill placement. We recommend that continuous footings have minimum widths of 12 and 16 inches, respectively. The foundations should be reinforced to span a minimum distance of 10 feet without soil support, similar to grade beams. They should be bottomed at least 18 inches below the lowest adjacent finish ground surface. Footing subgrades must be cleaned of loose or disturbed soil prior to pouring concrete. Depending upon site and equipment constraints, this may require removing the disturbed soil by hand. Depending on the final site grades, some overexcavation may be required below the footings to expose competent, native soil. Unless lean concrete is used to fill an overexcavated hole, the overexcavation must be at least as wide at the bottom as the sum of the depth of the overexcavation and the footing width. For example, an overexcavation extending 2 feet below the bottom of a 3-foot-wide footing must be at least 5 feet wide at the base of the excavation. If lean concrete is used, the overexcavation need only extend 6 inches beyond the edges of the footing. An allowable bearing pressure of 3,000 pounds per square foot (psf) is appropriate for footings supported on medium-dense to dense gravelly sand. For footings supported on structural fill, an allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf is appropriate. A one-third increase in these design bearing pressures may be used when considering short-term wind or seismic loads. Lateral loads due to wind or seismic forces may be resisted by friction between the foundation and the bearing soil, or by passive earth pressure acting on the vertical, embedded portions of the foundation. For the latter condition, the foundation must be either poured directly against relatively level, undisturbed soil or be surrounded by level structural fill. We recommend using the following design values for the foundation's resistance to lateral loading: Parameter Design Value Coefficient of Friction 0.45 • Passive Earth Pressure 350 pcf GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation ` ` JN 99330 September 14, 1999 • Page 5 Where:(i)pcf is pounds per cubic foot,and(ii)passive earth pressure is computed using the equivalent fluid density. If the ground in front of a foundation is loose or sloping, the passive earth pressure given above will not be appropriate. We recommend a safety factor of at least 1.5 for the foundation's resistance to lateral loading, when using the above design values. SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS The site is located within Seismic Zone 3, as illustrated on Figure No. 16-2 of the 1997 Uniform Building Code (UBC). In accordance with Table 16-J of the 1997 UBC, the soil within 100 feet of the ground surface is best represented by Soil Profile Type Sc (Very Dense Soil). The site soils are not subject to seismic liquefaction because of their dense, nature and because of the absence of near-surface groundwater. PERMANENT FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS Retaining walls backfilled on only one side should be designed to resist the lateral earth pressures imposed by the soil they retain. The following recommended design parameters are for walls that restrain level backfill: Parameter Design Value Active Earth Pressure* 35 pcf Passive Earth Pressure 350 pcf Coefficient of Friction 0.45 Soil Unit Weight 135 pcf Where:(i)pcf is pounds per cubic foot,sand(Ii)active and passive earth pressures are computed using the equivalent fluid pressures. "For a restrained wall that cannot deflect at least 0.002 times its height,a uniform lateral pressure equal to 10 psf times the height • of the wall should be added to the above active equivalent fluid pressure. The values given above are to be used to design permanent foundation and retaining walls only. The passive pressure given is appropriate for the depth of level structural fill placed in front of a retaining or foundation wall only. We recommend a safety factor of at least 1.5 for overturning and sliding, when using the above values to design the walls. Restrained wall soil parameters should be utilized for a distance of 1.5 times the wall height from corners in the walls. The design values given above do not include the effects of any hydrostatic pressures behind the walls and assume that no surcharges, such as those caused by slopes, vehicles, or adjacent foundations will be exerted on the walls. If these conditions exist, those pressures should be added to the above lateral soil pressures. Where sloping backfill is desired behind the walls, we will need GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 6 to be given the wall dimensions and the slope of the backfill in order to provide the appropriate design earth pressures. The surcharge due to traffic loads behind a wall can typically be accounted for by adding a uniform pressure equal to 2 feet multiplied by the above active fluid density. Heavy construction equipment should not be operated behind retaining and foundation walls within a distance equal to the height of a wall, unless the walls are designed for the additional lateral pressures resulting from the equipment. The wall design criteria assume that the backfill will be well-compacted in lifts no thicker than 12 inches. The compaction of backfill near the walls should be accomplished with hand-operated equipment to prevent the walls from being overloaded by the higher soil forces that occur during compaction. Retaining Wall Backfill and Waterproofing Backfill placed behind retaining or foundation walls should be coarse, free-draining, structural fill containing no organics. This backfill should contain no more than 5 percent silt or clay particles and have no gravel greater than 4 inches in diameter. The percentage of particles passing the No. 4 sieve should be between 25 and 70 percent. If the native sand is used as backfill, a drainage composite similar to Miradrain 6000 should be placed against the backfilled retaining walls. The drainage composites should be hydraulically connected to the foundation drain system. For increased protection, drainage composites should be placed along cut slope faces, and the walls should be backfilled with pervious soil. The purpose of these backfill requirements is to ensure that the design criteria for a retaining wall are not exceeded because of a build-up of hydrostatic pressure behind the wall. The top 12 to 18 inches of the backfill should consist of a compacted, relatively impermeable soil or topsoil, or the surface should be paved. The ground surface must also slope away from backfilled walls to reduce the potential for surface water to percolate into the backfill. The sub-section entitled GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL contains recommendations regarding the placement and compaction of structural fill behind retaining and foundation walls. The above recommendations are not intended to waterproof below-grade walls. The performance of any subsurface drainage system will degrade over time. Also, groundwater drainage patterns can change, even if seepage is not evident in the temporary excavation. Therefore, if future moist conditions or seepage through the walls are not acceptable, waterproofing should be provided. This typically includes limiting cold joints and wall penetrations, and using bentonite panels or membranes on the outside of the walls. Applying a thin coat of asphalt emulsion is not considered waterproofing, but will only help to prevent moisture, generated from water vapor or capillary action, from seeping through the concrete. EXCAVATIONS AND SLOPES Excavation slopes should not exceed the limits specified in local, state, and national government safety regulations. Temporary cuts to a depth of about 4 feet may be attempted vertically in unsaturated soil, away from property lines, utilities, and existing structures, if there are no indications of slope instability. Based upon Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 296, Part N, GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 7 the native sand at the subject site would generally be classified as Type B. Therefore, temporary cut slopes greater than 4 feet in height cannot be excavated at an inclination steeper than 1:1 (Horizontal:Vertical), extending continuously between the top and the bottom of a cut. The above-recommended temporary slope inclination is based on what has been successful at other sites with similar soil conditions. Temporary cuts are those that will remain unsupported fora relatively short duration to allow for the construction of foundations, retaining walls, or utilities. Temporary cut slopes should be protected with plastic sheeting during wet weather. The cut slopes should also be backfilled or retained as soon as possible to reduce the potential for instability. Please note that sand can cave suddenly and without warning. Utility contractors should be made especially aware of this potential danger. All permanent cuts into native soil should be inclined no steeper than 2:1 (H:V). Fill slopes should not be constructed with an inclination greater than 2:1 (H:V). To reduce the potential for shallow sloughing, fill must be compacted to the face of these slopes. This could be accomplished by overbuilding the compacted fill and then trimming it back to its final inclination. Water should not be allowed to flow uncontrolled over the top of any temporary or permanent slope. Also, all permanently exposed slopes should be seeded with an appropriate species of vegetation to reduce erosion and improve the stability of the surficial layer of soil. Any disturbance to the existing steep slope beyond the northeastern corner of the site may reduce the stability of the slope. Damage to the existing vegetation and ground should be minimized, and • any disturbed areas should be revegetated as soon as possible. Soil from the excavations should not be placed on, or near; the slope. - DRAINAGE CONSIDERATIONS Foundation drains are required where crawl spaces or basements will be below a structure, or the outside grade does not slope downward from a building. Drains should also be placed at the base of all earth-retaining walls. These drains should be surrounded by at least 6 inches of 1-inch- minus, washed rock and then wrapped in non-woven, geotextile filter fabric (Mirafi 140N, Supac 4NP, or similar material). At its highest point, a perforated pipe invert should be at least 6 inches below the bottom of a slab floor or the level of.a crawl space, and it should be sloped for drainage. Drainage should also be provided inside the footprint of a structure, where a crawl space will slope or be lower than the surrounding ground surface, or an excavation encounters significant seepage. We can provide recommendations for interior drains, should they become necessary, during excavation and foundation construction. All roof and surface water drains must be kept separate from the foundation drain system. A typical drain detail is attached to this report as Plate 10. For the best long-term performance, perforated PVC pipe is recommended for all subsurface drains. No groundwater was observed during our field work. If seepage is encountered in an excavation, it should be drained from the site by directing it through drainage ditches, perforated pipe, or French drains, or by pumping it from sumps interconnected by shallow connector trenches at the bottom of the excavation. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 8 The excavations and site should be graded so that surface water is directed away from the tops of slopes. Water should not be allowed to stand in any area where foundations, slabs, or pavements are to be constructed. Final site grading in areas adjacent to the buildings should slope away at least 2 percent, except where the area is paved. Water from roof, storm water, and foundation drains should not be discharged onto slopes; it should be tightlined to a suitable outfall located away from any slopes. PAVEMENT AREAS The pavement sections may be supported on competent, native soil or on structural fill compacted to a 95 percent density. We recommend that the pavement subgrade must be in a stable, non- yielding condition at the time of paving. Granular structural fill or geotextile fabric may be needed to stabilize soft, wet, or unstable areas. To evaluate pavement subgrade strength, we recommend that a proof-roll be completed with a loaded dump truck immediately before paving. In most instances where unstable subgrade conditions are encountered, an additional 12 inches of granular structural fill will stabilize the subgrade, except for very soft areas where additional fill could be required. The subgrade should be evaluated by Geotech Consultants, Inc., after the site is stripped and cut to grade. Recommendations for the compaction of structural fill beneath pavements are given in a later sub-section entitled GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL. The performance of site pavements is directly related to the strength and stability of the underlying subgrade. • The pavement for lightly-loaded traffic and parking areas should consist of 2 inches of asphalt concrete (AC) over 4 inches of crushed rock base (CRB) or 3 inches of asphalt-treated base (ATB). We recommend providing heavily-loaded areas with 3 inches of AC over 6 inches of CRB or 4 inches of ATB. Heavily-loaded areas are typically main driveways, dumpster sites, or areas with truck traffic. The pavement section recommendations and guidelines presented in this report are based on our experience in the area and on what has been successful in similar situations. We can provide • recommendations based on expected traffic loads and California Bearing Ratio tests, if requested. As with any pavements, some maintenance and repair of limited areas can be expected as the pavement ages. To provide for a design without the need for any repair would be uneconomical. GENERAL EARTHWORK AND STRUCTURAL FILL All building and pavement areas should be stripped of surface vegetation, topsoil, organic soil, and other deleterious material. The stripped or removed materials should not be mixed with any materials to be used as structural fill, but they could be used in non-structural areas, such as landscape beds. Structural fill is defined as any fill placed under a building, behind permanent retaining or foundation walls, or in other areas where the underlying soil needs to support loads. All structural fill should be placed in horizontal lifts with a moisture content at, or near, the optimum moisture content. The optimum moisture content is that moisture content that results in the greatest compacted dry density. The moisture content of fill is very important and must be closely controlled during the • filling and compaction process. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 9 The allowable thickness of the fill lift will depend on the material type selected, the compaction equipment used, and the number of passes made to compact the lift. The loose lift thickness should not exceed 12 inches. We recommend testing the fill as it is placed. If the fill is not compacted to specifications, it can be recompacted before another lift is placed. This eliminates the need to remove the fill to achieve the required compaction. The following table presents recommended relative compactions for structural fill: Location of Minimum Fill Placement Relative Compaction Beneath footings or 95% walkways Behind retaining walls 90% 95%for upper 12 inches of Beneath pavements subgrade; 90% below that level Where: Minimum Relative Compaction Is the ratio,expressed in percentages,of the compacted dry density to the maximum dry density, as determined in accordance with ASTM Test Designation D 1557-91 (Modified Proctor). Use of On-Site Soil If grading activities take place during wet weather, or when the site soils are wet, site preparation costs may be higher because of delays due to rain and the potential need to dry the site soils. The moisture content of the on-site soil must be at, or near, the optimum moisture content, as the soil cannot be consistently compacted to the required density when the moisture content is significantly greater than optimum. The on-site, non-organic sand could be used as structural fill, if grading operations are conducted during hot, dry weather, when drying the wetter soil by aeration is possible. During excessively dry weather, however, it may be necessary to add water to achieve the optimum moisture content. LIMITATIONS The analyses, conclusions, and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of our exploration and assume that the soil and groundwater conditions encountered in the test pits are representative of subsurface conditions on the site. If the subsurface conditions encountered during construction are significantly different from those observed in our explorations, we should be advised at once so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. Unanticipated soil conditions are commonly encountered on construction sites and cannot be fully anticipated by merely taking soil samples in test pits. Subsurface conditions can also vary between exploration locations. Such unexpected conditions frequently require making additional expenditures to attain a. properly constructed project. It is recommended that the owner consider providing a contingency fund to accommodate such potential extra costs and risks. This is a standard recommendation for all projects. GEOTECH CONSULTANTS, INC. • The Bennett Corporation JN 99330 September 14, 1999 Page 10 • This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the Bennett Corporation, and its representatives, for specific application to this project and site. Our recommendations and conclusions are based on observed site materials, and selective engineering analyses. Our conclusions and recommendations are professional opinions derived in accordance with current standards of practice within the scope of our services and within budget and time constraints. No warranty is expressed or implied. The scope of our services does not include services related to construction safety precautions, and our recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures, except as specifically described in our report for consideration in design. This report, and the study by Hart Crowser, should be provided to any future property owners to inform them of our findings and recommendations. Additionally, this report should be provided in the project contract documents for the information of the contractor. ADDITIONAL SERVICES In addition to reviewing the final plans, Geotech Consultants, Inc. should be retained to provide geotechnical consultation, testing, and observation services during construction. This is to confirm that subsurface conditions are consistent with those indicated by our exploration, to evaluate whether earthwork and foundation construction activities comply with the general intent of the recommendations presented in this report, and to provide suggestions for design changes in the event subsurface conditions differ from those anticipated prior to the start of construction. However, our work would not include the supervision or direction of the actual work of the contractor and its employees or agents. Also, job and site safety, and dimensional measurements, will be the responsibility of the contractor. We conducted an environmental assessment for this site which is presented in a separate report.

Bennett development contracted Biota • Pacific Environmental Sciences, Inc. (Biota Pacific) to provide an assessment of impacts to wildlife that may be using the project site. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located in a 10-acre triangle in the middle of the northern boundary of Section 20 of Township 23 North, Range 05 East, Willamette Meridian (Figure 1). The project site is bounded to the north by the River Ridge subdivision, to the west by Phillip Arnold Park, and to the east by the Falcon Ridge subdivision. A steep forested ravine that drains north to the Cedar River forms the boundary at the northeast corner of the project site. The current development plan will result in the establishment of 57 .homes within the subdivision. Plans also include a stormwater detention pond and park. METHODS The wildlife assessment consisted of three primary elements. First, Biota Pacific conducted a visit to the project site to assess the value to wildlife of the on-site habitat, and to search for evidence of the presence wildlife, especially priority wildlife species or raptor nests. Priority wildlife species are those listed or are candidates to be listed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) as Endangered,.Threatened, or Sensitive. . . . Second, based on the findings of the field visit, Biota Pacific evaluated the potential of the site to support any priority wildlife species that may occur in the vicinity of the project area (Appendix). Third, Biota Pacific requested that the WDFW Priority Habitats and Species Program (PHS) conducted a search of their database for the occurrence of any priority habitats or species in the vicinity of the project area. 7 December 2000 Page 1 Dec- 11-00 08:36A Bennett Corp 4257096553 P. 05 • .— rw — .v ...X .'....'. s = LED CITY 0� ,cR1r.c( •CN(DN MU .v. t —'--..:,, ti RENTON TREE Cu rI �c ct Rµ ~"— L 1JI II' j • I I I 1 1' I f•----F 1 t I I 5. /, & 7.4 tilk;L'a ->4',),. to! _ ,_ 1-•—....—."—•-••'..1•-•—• J.... —L—L— L _, i -..- ..

Project area map. Dec-11-00 08: 37A Bennett Corp 4257096553 P . 06 Bennett Development Wildlife Assessment RESULTS Site Visit Biota,Pacific.visited the project site on 1 December. 2000. The 10-acre project site consists of two level tiers with the northwest corner of the site approximately 15 to 20 feet lower than the remaining area to the east. This lower tier is characterized by a sparse canopy of black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) and red alder (Alnus rubra). The understory, which has been partially cleared, consists primarily of a matrix of grasses and Himalayan blackberry (Holodiscus discolor). The upper tier of the project area is characterized by closed-canopy hardwood forest that is dominated by black cottonwood, red alder, and bigleaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) with diameters generally ranging from approximately 10 to 14 inches. A few conifer species, including western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) and western redcedar (Thuja plicate) are widely scattered throughout this portion of the project area. The understory on the upper tier is dominated by sword fern (Polystichum munitum), salal (Gaultheria shal/on), Oregon grape (Berberis nervosa), and common .snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus). There are no snags and very little coarse woody debris within the project. During the site visit direct observations were made of the following species: California quail (Callipepla califomica) northern flicker (Colaptes auratus) American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) black-capped chickadee (Parus atricapillus) song sparrow (Melospiza melodia) dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis) eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinehsis) In addition, evidence of black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) presence was observed. Database Search Discussion pending return of database information 7 December 2000 Page 3 Dec-11-00 08:37A Bennett Corp 4257096553 P . 0/ Bennett Development Wildlife Assessment CONCLUSIONS No evidence of use of the site by priority species was observed during the field visit, and it is unlikely that the property currently provides habitat for any priority wildlife species, including bald eagles. There are no potential bald eagle nest trees on the project site, and King County is unaware of any bald eagle nests in the vicinity (Stenberg, pers. comm., 1 Dec 00). Because of the lack of potential — nest trees and the location of the project site, which is located more than 250 feet from the Cedar River, it is unlikely the site would be used by bald eagles for nesting. The nearest known bald eagle nest is located on the southern end of Mercer Island. Bald eagles that have been seen in the area of the project site are likely foraging upstream on the Cedar River (Stenberg, pers. comm., 1 Dec 00). The development should not have a significant long-term impact on wildlife in the area. The amount of wildlife habitat that will be lost as a result of the development is insignificant when compared to the amount of forested habitat adjacent to and above the Cedar River that will not be developed in the future. The project site is too small to support the habitat needs of a single deer. Deer currently using the project site require additional habitat and will continue to use the undeveloped along the Cedar River habitat as they do now. 7 December 2000 Page 4 Dec-11-00 08: 37A Bennett Corp 4257096553 - uz5 Bennett Development Wildlife Assessment REFERENCES Stenberg, Kate, King County Wildlife Program Manager.

The Heritage Renton Hill project is currently in the process of being reviewed by the City of Renton Hearing Examiner. The public hearing of November 16, 2000, was continued to 6:00 p.m. on December 12, 2000. The hearingwill be held in the City of Renton Council Chambers on the 7th floor of City Hall. You are welcome to attend. Also, we have made you a "Party of Record" for the Heritage Renton Hill project. By this means,you will also receive information about it through the mail. As to the traffic issue, the City is aware of the situation with streets and vehicles on Renton Hill, and we share your concerns. The applicant for the project was required to retain a traffic engineering consultant to analyze street conditions,measure existing traffic volumes, anticipate future volumes both with and without the proposed project, study accident reports, and make recommendations regarding the project. These factors have been taken into consideration during the review of the project. The addition of traffic from the proposed project would be expected to increase volumes on Renton Hill by approximately twenty-five percent. This would probably increase the amount of inconvenience to residents of the neighborhood. An increase in accidents would not be expected, however. The problems with traffic flow on Renton Hill are largely due to the narrowness of the streets, lack of off-street parking opportunities, and street grades. These are all conditions that have been in place for a long time. While added traffic volumes will tend to add to the delay in maneuvering on the streets, there is no mechanism to require the developer of the proposed project, or other citizens of Renton, to "fix"these problems. You may be interested to know that Beacon Way South is neither a public street,nor a public right-of-way. The land underlying Beacon Way is owned outright by Seattle Public Utilities (SPU). It is the location of the Cedar River Pipeline, a major water transmission facility for the City of Seattle. When recently asked, a representative of SPU expressed no interest in upgrading their Pipeline property in the Renton Hill area. 1055 South Grady Way- Renton, Washington 98055 - (425)430-6500/ FAX(425)430-6523 R1 Thla rum.,rrvJoina SIM rarvrlorl maloriol armN nnN rnnerimgr Norman Perry December 8,2000 Page 2 Thank you,again,for your interest in the City of Renton.

That hearing dealt mainly with an appeal of the Environmental Review Committee's(ERC)State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) determination in the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat(LUA-00-053). In order to accommodate those persons who.could not testify at a later time or date,some testimony regarding-the Preliminary Plat was taken. There was insufficient time to complete the:hearing on November;14,and the hearing was therefore continued to November 16,2000. It was during the Course of that continued hearing that it became clear that providing only two days notice(November 14 to November16)of the continuance did not allow persons who might have,alreadyhad prior commitments to'attend,the:second hearing. This office, therefore,determined that the hearing should be continued with additional lead time. The continued hearing will begin at 6:00 p.m y on-Tuesday•.December 12,2000. The hearing will be held in the City Council Chambers on the 7th Floor:of,the Renton.City Hall: „ The matters relating to the appeal have been concluded;_ he only issues to be discussed at this hearing will be regarding the Preliminary,:Plat. • The only testimony and evidence that will accepted will have to be relevant and non-repetitious. This office will not entertain redundant testitiiony,as that adds nothing factual to the record and does not aid in the writing of the necessary findings and,conclusions required by City:andState law. • If this office can be of further assistance,please feel free to write. • Sincerely; Fred J..Kaufman Hearing Examiner FJK:jt cc: Mayor Jesse Tanner.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND Bennett Development has proposed subdivision of an approximately 450,846 sf (10.35 acre) property into 57 lots suitable for detached, single family houses. Lots would range in size from 4,504 sf to 8,318 sf. The average lot size would be approximately 5,350 sf. The triangular-shaped property is located on Renton Hill, southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way South with SE 7th Court,Jones Avenue South, and South 7th Street. Although Renton Hill is a well established neighborhood, land abutting the proposed project to the north has been developed fairly recently into the"River Ridge," eleven-lot, subdivision. "Falcon Ridge,"a large (80 lots) subdivision, lies to the southeast. Philip Arnold Park, a developed park in the City of Renton park system, is adjacent to the southwest. The Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement,which is used occasionally for overflow parking from the park, separates the park from the proposed development property. The property is in a Residential 8 (R-8) Zone, which requires/allows between 5.0 and-8.0 dwelling units per net acre (du/a). Approximately 88,862.4 sf (2.04 acre) of the site would be public right-of- ways and therefore is deducted from the gross square footage of the site for density calculations. The net site area is approximately 361,983.6 sf (8.31 acre),therefore the density would be 6.86 du/a. Access would be from a new public street that would intersect with SE 7th Court, in the River Ridge development.The new street would terminate in a cul-de-sac. An emergency-only access would connect the cul-de-sac with the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement. A modification from street standards has been requested to reduce the width of the public right-of-way from 50 feet to 42 feet. There are no existing structures on the site. Approximately 54,974 cubic yards of topsoil would be cut on the site, with approximately 19,233 cubic yards of fill material being replaced following excavation. The project requires Environmental Review, Preliminary Plat approval by the Hearing Examiner, and administrative approval of a reduced public street right-of-way(from 50 to 42 feet wide). hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department - ;`'reliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT .

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and SEPA(RCW 43.21 C, 1971 as amended), on October 17,2000,the Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance, Mitigated. One appeal was filed prior to the close of the appeal period on November 6, 2000. The appeal hearing will be combined with the Preliminary Plat hearing. 3. COMPLIANCE WITH ERC MITIGATION MEASURES Based on an analysis of probable impacts from the proposed project, the following mitigation measures were issued for the Determination of Non-Significance, Mitigated. 1. The applicant shall install a silt fence along the downslope perimeter of the area that is to be disturbed.

STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS Representatives from various city departments have reviewed the application materials to identify and address site plan issues from the proposed development. These comments are contained in the official file, and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate sections of this report and the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report. 5. CONSISTENCY WITH PRELIMINARY PLAT CRITERIA: Approval of a plat is based upon several factors. The following preliminary plat criteria have been established to assist decision makers in the review of the plat: (a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element - The proposal should be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan land use designation of the property as Residential Single Family. The Objective and Policies of the Single Family Residential land use designation are as follows: Objective LU-J: Protect and enhance the Residential Single Family areas, encourage reinvestment and rehabilitation resulting in quality neighborhoods, improve opportunities for better public transportation, and make more efficient use of urban services and infrastructure. The proposed project meets this objective by investing in under-utilized land to create a new neighborhood and provide a greater use of urban services and infrastructure. Policy LU-34: Net development densities should fall within a range of 5.0 to 8.0 dwelling units per acre in Residential Single Family Neighborhoods. The proposed project would meet this policy by having a development density of 6.86 dwelling units per net acre. hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department - 'reliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT . LUA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 6 of 12 Policy LU-35: A minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet should be allowed in single family residential neighborhoods except when flexible development standards are used for project review. Lots are proposed at 4,504 sf to 8,318 sf. The average lot size would be approximately 5,350 sf. Policy LU-37: Maximum height of structures should generally not exceed 2 stories in single family residential neighborhoods. Development standards require that the maximum building height in the R-8 Zone be two stories or 30 feet. The developer has indicated that he intends to build houses on the platted lots that comply with this standard. Policy LU-38: Development standards for single family neighborhoods (e.g. lot size, width, building height, setbacks, lot coverage)should encourage quality development in neighborhoods. The project, as proposed,would meet current development standards that are designed to encourage quality development. Policy LU-39: Development standards for single family neighborhoods should address transportation and pedestrian connections between neighborhoods and compatible boundaries between neighborhoods. The proposed project would be a part of the Renton Hill neighborhood. Renton Hill is somewhat "disconnected"from adjacent neighborhoods. It is isolated from the downtown because of the proximity of Interstate 405 and from residential areas to the south and east due to topographic change and the fact that the Seattle Public Utility Cedar River Pipeline Easement is closed to through traffic. These situations would not be altered by development of the proposed project. The proposed project would have pedestrian connections to the Seattle Public Utility Cedar River Pipeline Easement. Although the Easement is on Seattle Public Utility property, it is used by the public to access Philip Arnold Park, a developed City of Renton park. Policy LU-40: New plats developed at higher densities within existing neighborhoods should be designed to incorporate street locations, lot configurations, and building envelopes which address privacy and quality of life for existing residents. Design features would be incorporated into the site plan that take into consideration existing neighboring homes that were developed at lower overall densities. The entry area would be landscaped and have open space areas to buffer the proposed development from the existing River Ridge development. The applicant has expressed the intention of creating a fifteen foot (15')wide lineal landscaped area along the north property boundary, creating a buffer between the new development and existing houses. Policy LU-40.1: New plats proposed at higher densities than adjacent neighborhood developments may be modified within the allowed density range to reduce conflicts between old and new development patterns. However, strict adherence to older standards is not required. Increased traffic volumes could cause conflicts between existing and new residents. A stop sign at the new entrance road to the proposed project would provide traffic control however. Existing residents in the River Ridge subdivision, located on a dead end cul-de-sac, would be inconvenienced to a greater extent than they are now, but traffic volumes are expected to be typical for an urban street. Policy LU-40.2: Site features such as distinctive stands of trees and natural slopes should be retained to enhance neighborhood character and preserve property values where possible. Retention of unique site features should be balanced with the objective of investing in neighborhoods within the overall context of the Vision Statement of(the]Comprehensive Plan. hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department - .aliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT LUA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 7 of 12 Three areas on the proposed site plan in the proximity of the entry way have been set aside for preservation as commonly held open space. The trees in one of these areas, adjacent to the stormwater pond,would be retained, if possible. The private"Park"area does not appear to have significant trees on it at the present time. The other area would require grading, so existing trees would not be retained. Staff recommends that these areas be enhanced, prior to occupancy, with landscaping including mixed deciduous and evergreen trees and plantings of native shrubs and groundcover. Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element The Growth Management Act required that the Comprehensive Plan address transportation planning based on land use assumptions,travel estimations, facilities and services needs, Demand Management Strategies, and finance. The Comprehensive Plan included a forecast of Renton's traffic increase for a twenty year period. In the plan, it was estimated that there would be a 52% increase in traffic in Renton between 1990 and 2010. The estimated traffic increase on Cedar and Renton Avenues on Renton Hill would be approximately 25%from the proposed project. This appears to be consistent with projected city-wide traffic volume increases. A critical transportation issue with all development proposed in Renton is the concurrency of the City's transportation system with development. Policy T-3 states that, 'Transportation plans should be phased concurrently with growth." The measure of concurrency is Level of Service (LOS). The City of Renton uses the Highway Capacity Manual (Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, 1985) definition of Level of Service. This LOS concept quantifies a motorist's degree of comfort as they travel through an intersection or along a segment of roadway. The degree of comfort includes travel time, amount of stopped delay at intersections, impedance caused by other vehicles, and safety. Levels are A through F,with A being the best level of service and F the worst. The applicant submitted a traffic study by Transportation Planning & Engineering, Inc., "Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis,"dated January 27, 2000, and"Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis,Addendum No. 2,"dated September 11, 2000. These reports indicate that Levels of Service in the vicinity of the proposed project, at key intersections, would not be lowered by traffic generation from the project. This can be seen in the following PM Peak Hour Levels of Service table, where Level of Service is measured by the amount of delay per vehicle at each intersection: PM PEAK HOUR* LEVEL OF SERVICE SUMMARY Projected 2005 Projected 2005 Existing Without Project With Project - Intersection LOS Delay** LOS Delay** LOS- - Delay** Main Ave/S.4th St B 16.9 B 16.3*** B 16.4 Houser Way S/MiII Ave S B 11.1 B 11.6 B 11.8 Cedar Ave S/S 3`d St/Mill Ave S South approach A 7.4 A 7.4 A 7.5 Overall A 7.3 A 7.3 A 7.4 Renton Ave S/S 7th St South approach A 7.5 A 7.5 A 7.6 Overall A 7.2 A 7.2 A 7.4 * PM Peak hours are typically considered the most critical time of day for traffic generation purposes ** Average seconds of delay per vehicle ***Assumes the planned traffic signal modifications are in place hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department _ _eliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT LUA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 8 of 12 The previous table indicates that the intersections included in the study,which are the key intersections in the circulation pattern on Renton Hill,would continue to operate at LOS A and/or LOS B in the PM peak hour with the project.This indicates availability of adequate capacity at the intersections studied to accommodate the addition of project-generated traffic. Comprehensive Plan - Housing Element Housing Mandates: The Growth Management Act requires the City to plan how it will accommodate its share of the projected population growth (as determined by the Puget Sound Regional Council) and how it will provide housing for all economic segments of the City's population. The Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan delineates these strategies. Plan Background: The preliminary housing strategies were reviewed by a citizens' Housing Task Force in 1993. The draft Housing Element was reviewed by the City Planning Commission and preliminary plan concepts were reviewed by the development community, real estate community, and service providers and the community as a whole in a focus group meeting. The City Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Interim Plan alid made its recommendation to the City Council in the winter of 1994. The City Council held a series of workshops and public hearings during the.winter and spring of 1994 prior to adoption. There was a recognized need, in the Comprehensive Plan,to ensure that an adequate amount of land would be available for residential development by providing appropriate zoning. The Plan further recognized that almost all the needed housing would be developed by private parties, not the municipal government. Therefore,the Plan endorsed policies and programs that would support that development. Project Compliance with Housing Element By adding 57 homes,the proposed project would increase the City's housing supply,thereby furthering objectives of the Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan.The following would particularly be met by the proposed project: Policy H-4: Encourage infill development as a means to increase capacity. Policy H-7: Promote high quality residential living environments in all types of neighborhoods. Policy H10: Encourage small lot single family development. Policy H-11: Favor single family land use designations for large vacant parcels outside of Centers and in predominantly residential areas to increase the single family capacity within the city. Policy H-17: Minimum density requirements should ensure that average net density of residential development within a project can eventually ensure adequate capacity for growth and prevent inefficient use of urban infrastructure. Policy H-82: Relate the size of structures to the size of lots in order to create development which fits into a neighborhood. Comprehensive Environmental Element The purpose of the Environmental Element of the Comprehensive Plan is to provide policies that form the basis for environmental actions by the City as it attempts to balance urbanization, economic development, and natural area protection. The City must also regulate land uses in areas where development could create hazards to life, property, or environmental quality. Although there are no streams or wetlands on the property,there are areas of the natural environment that may be impacted by development of the proposed project. They are surface water, steep slopes, hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department eliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT • LUA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 9 of 12 and wildlife habitats. Also,the property in its undeveloped state is heavily covered by trees of approximately 30 years in age.The following policies of the Environmental Element would be applicable to the proposed project: Policy EN-3: Minimize erosion and sedimentation by requiring appropriate construction techniques and farming practices. Policy EN-27: Control quantity and quality of stormwater run-off from all new development to be consistent with or improved over existing conditions. Policy EN-28: Minimize on-site erosion and sedimentation during and after construction. Policy EN-29: Route stormwater runoff from new development to avoid gully erosion or landslides in ravines and steep hillsides. Policy EN-31: Implement surface water management systems which protect natural features whenever feasible. Policy EN-36: Promote the return of precipitation to the soil at.natural rates near where it falls through the use of detention ponds, grassy swales, and infiltration where feasible. Policy EN-37: Promote development design which minimizes impermeable surface coverage by limiting site coverage and maximizing the exposure of natural surfaces. Policy EN-38: Manage the cumulative effects of storm water through a combination of engineering and preservation of natural systems. Policy EN-58: Designate setbacks around environmentally sensitive areas to protect both the areas and the users. Project Compliance with the Environmental Element The applicant has proposed a private surface water control system that would collect, detain, treat for pollutants, and provide a controlled release of stormwater. The system would be maintained by a Homeowners'Association. Erosion control measures that would be put in place prior to the start of construction were made conditions of the Environmental Determination. Slopes on the property, that are in excess of grades that would otherwise cause them to be regulated under the Critical Areas Ordinance,were probably created by mining activity on the site (gravel extraction). Therefore, the applicant has requested an exemption from the Critical Areas Ordinance. This exemption has been approved administratively, based on the geotechnical engineering report. The property is located in the City of Renton's Aquifer Protection Area 2. The before-mentioned stormwater control system and connection to the sanitary sewer system would provide adequate protection of the City's water resource from the proposed development. The applicant has estimated that approximately 389 trees sized 6 inches in diameter and greater and of various types would be removed from the property.The applicant must adhere to the requirements of the Forest Practices Act, a state regulation. A Class IV permit for conversion of forested land to another use and removal of more than 5000 board feet of timber(for sale, not personal use)would be required. The individual lots would be landscaped following house construction. The applicant has proposed certain areas, as indicated on the Preliminary Plat plan (dated 8/31/00), be designated as"landscape tracts." Staff has concerns that some of these areas, due to their small size and isolated location from other lots within the development, may not receive the maintenance and care necessary to prevent them from becoming unsightly or unsafe. Therefore, staff recommends that all landscape tract areas,with the exception of the 5,402 sf tract located at the hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department rreliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT LUA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 10 of 12 development entry, the 3,042 sf private"Park", and the landscape area abutting the stormwater tract, be incorporated into lots already proposed within the plat. No additional building lots are to be created. A revised plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Division prior to receiving construction permits. Special setback requirements from steep slopes were made conditions of the Environmental Determination, as were conditions relating to potential hazard from former subsurface mining activity. (b) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation The proposal site is designated Residential 8(R-8) on the City of Renton Zoning Map. The R-8 Zone has a minimum density requirement of 5.0 dwelling units per net acre (du/a) and a maximum density of 8.0 du/a. The proposed development would allow for future construction of up to 57 new dwelling units. Each lot would be allowed to have one residential dwelling, therefore the density of the development would be 6.86 du/a. The minimum lot size permitted in the R-8 Zone is 4,500 sf. • The proposed plat would provide 57 lots ranging in size from 4,504 sf to 8,318 sf. The average lot size would be approximately 5,350 sf. These lot sizes are smaller than the eleven lots in the development to the north, River Ridge, but are compatible with other existing lots in this area. The minimum lot dimensions in the R-8 Zone are 50 feet wide for interior lots, 60 feet wide for corner lots, and 65 feet deep. All rectangular lots meet or exceed the minimum lot width and depth requirements or 50 or 60 feet wide and 65 feet deep. Fifteen lots that are irregularly shaped meet the requirements for minimum lot width and depth through width averaging.An additional lot is a pipestem lot, which also meets the minimum requirements for lot width and depth and width of pipestem. On streets developed since September 1, 1995, the minimum setbacks in the R-8 Zone are 15 feet for primary structures and 20 feet for attached garages that access from the front yard street,20 feet for the rear yard, 5 feet for interior side yards, and 15 feet for side yards on corner lots. The front, rear, and side setback lines indicated on the Preliminary Plat plan meet the minimum setback requirements for the R-8 Zone. The maximum building height in the R-8 Zone is two stories or 30 feet. Compliance with the building height regulations would be a requirement of the building permit process. The maximum building coverage in the R-8 Zone is 50% of lots 5,000 square feet or smaller and 35% of, or 2500 sf on, lots larger than 5,000 sf. Compliance with the building coverage regulations would be a requirement of the building permit process. (c) Compliance with Subdivision Regulations (RMC 4-7) Lots: The proposed plat must create legal building sites that comply with all provisions of the City Zoning Code. All lots created by the subdivision would result in legal building lots according to the regulations for the Residential 8 Zone. hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department ,,'eliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT . L UA-00-053,ECF,PP PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 14,2000 Page 11 of 12 Access: All parcels must have access established to a public road. The Preliminary Plat fronts on and would receive primary access from a public street, SE 7th Court. Most of the proposed lots within the development would front directly onto new public roads. One lot (Lot 35)would access a public road by means of a pipestem to the lot. Lots 20, 21, and 22 would be accessed by a private, 26'wide road. Lots 14, 15, 16, and 17 would be accessed by another private, 26'wide road. Physical Characteristics: The plat must have suitable physical characteristics. The Proposed Plat has suitable physical characteristics, as conditioned by the SEPA Determination and Mitigating Conditions (included herein). Drainage: The Preliminary Plat must make adequate provision for drainage ways, streets, alleys, other public ways, water supplies, and sanitary wastes. The conceptual plans for the proposed Preliminary Plat have been approved by City staff as providing adequately for drainage ways, streets and other public ways,water supplies, and sanitary wastes. Residential lot arrangement: Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines or radial to curved street lines. The Preliminary Plat plan indicates side lot lines are at right angles and/or radial to streets. Property corners at intersections: All lot corners at intersections of dedicated public rights-of-way, except alleys, shall have minimum radius of fifteen feet(159. All lot corners at intersections of dedicated public right-of-ways will be designed with a minimum radius of fifteen feet (15'). (d) Availability and Impact on Public Services (Timeliness) Police and Fire Police and Fire Prevention Bureau staff indicate that sufficient resources exist to furnish services to the proposed development, subject to the condition that the applicant provide Code required improvements and fees. Recreation It is anticipated that new residents to the project would use City park and recreation facilities and programs. The City of Renton Park and Recreation Department has indicated the ability to provide services to new residents, subject to the condition that the applicant participate in the Park Mitigation Fee program. Schools Renton School District No. 403 has indicated that the increased student enrollment that may result from the development of the proposed project, estimated at 25 students, can be accommodated in Talbot Hill Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School, and Renton Senior High School. The School District has further requested that the existing school bus turnaround, located at the intersection of Beacon Way S and SE 7th Court be maintained. The conceptual plan for the proposed project would not impact this turnaround area. hexrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department `— iwaliminary Report to the Hearing Examiner HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT .

Water and Sanitary Sewer Utilities The conceptual water and sanitary sewer utilities plans have been accepted by the Plan Review Division. Final plans will be required as part of the Final Plat process. The City as indicated sufficient capacity to provide service to the proposed development. Street Improvements The vehicular circulation system on Renton Hill is influenced by several factors. As mentioned previously,the area is somewhat isolated due to topography. Steep slopes that run north to east above the Cedar River are preserved as natural areas and do not have roads. The east side is inaccessible due to the proximity of Interstate 405. The south side of Renton Hill has numerous utility easements and is also free of roads that might access Renton Hill,with the exception of the Seattle Public Utility Cedar River Pipeline Easement. This easement is known as Beacon Way S as it crosses Renton Hill. Travel on Beacon Way S is restricted due to its closure, at the request of the residents of Renton Hill. Although the road was open at one time, it was subsequently closed in order to increase security in the neighborhood. Traffic from Renton Hill,that might otherwise utilize this route, must enter and exit the neighborhood at the north. The limited access restricts traffic on streets that date from the earliest days of the City and are more narrow than now allowed by street standards. On-street parking, which is allowed on some streets, although not all of them, further constricts movement across Renton Hill. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT, Project File No. LUA-00-053, ECF, PP, subject to the following conditions: 1. Compliance with ERC Mitigation Measures: The applicant is required to comply with the Mitigation Measures which were required by the Environmental Review Committee Threshold Determination prior to the issuance of a building permit. 2.

We will have been on the hill for 7 years this December. We had a meeting up at Phillip Arnold Park last night which I am certain you were aware of. A couple of items were of specific interest which I wanted to address specifically for the record. Zoning: It appears that there is no record of the change in the property zoning from R4 to R8. From a legal standpoint, does this have to be cleaned up before the Bennet Homes project can continue? Traffic: The traffic continues to be an issue. In particular with respect to the continued lack of emphasis by the Renton City Police. A single policeman showing in the am simply is an indication that the City of Renton is only interested in perception of enforcement rather than getting serious about the matter. Seventh street off of Renton Avenue continues to be "drag strip"for some of the people on the hill and the new traffic for the mountain bike enthusiasts. 40+ mph speeds would not be uncommon during the week by some. There seems to be an interest is traffic accidents over this issue. Does it seem unfortunate that if we dont have a serious accident,that we assume we dont have a problem? Boarding Houses: It appears that someone has started a boarding house on Cedar. Now with the Zoning Codes for the hill, I dont not understand why the building was not"Red Tagged"due to lack of permits etc. I am sure that the building inspectors have no problem in stopping out of specification structures, why doesn't the City of Renton do the same for situations like this. So in summary. While I am sure that the City Council and the Mayor do what they consider to be a good job for us all, I think that it would be appropriate for them to get their house in order add make an effort to address zoning, and traffic and improper"boarding houses" before new problems arise from the consideration of projects such as the Bennet Homes proposal. There just seems to be too many loose ends associated with this whole issue. Its seems that the City of Renton is relying on the Renton Hill Group to do all the hunting, when it is the City of Renton who should have the data at hand . Perhaps we should make the list of issues, and address each and everyone to closure before new proposals such as the Bennet Homes are even considered. If you have the opprotunity, please respond as having received this email. Best Regards, Bentley Oaks CITY OF RENTON . .

Firstly, the proposed access to the property owned by the School District can only be accessed by the right of way next to my property (1707 SE 7th Ct). When ' I bought my house I was not aware that the landscaped area was a public right of way and not as it appears, a part of River Ridge Development. Therefore, I could not have anticipated having a road put in next to my property. The proposed, road would not only create significantly more traffic noise but also visually degrade my line of sight. Instead of a fairly quiet street because of the buffer from the landscaped area, I will have a busy road next to my house. Instead of a landscaped area to look at, I will have pavement. Secondly, the new development will remove an area which makes Renton Hill so special. To find a bit of nature so close to downtown which houses all sorts of wildlife is an asset not only to Renton Hill but also to Renton. The value of houses on Renton Hill have increased and new expensive houses have been built on the Hill not only because of its close in location but also because of the open space created by the undeveloped property. It's disappointing to see Renton continue to sell off it's assets.

I informed the applicant of this a couple of weeks ago. I am guessing they ordered the sign over the telephone and the sign company(which, by the way, also put the location and telephone number for the former City Hall on the sign, but has since corrected that) heard "Second" instead of"Seventh." The applicant has not submitted the information requested, but when they do and a new hearing date is set, you, as a party of record,will be informed of it. Thank you again for continuing to participate in this process. Elizabeth Higgins >>> "Collins, William G"<William.Collins2©PSS.Boeing.com> 06/07/00 08:13AM >>> Dear Elizabeth: I know that the preliminary public comment period is closed, but I wish to point out that the written legal documents posted at various locations in the community and at the"proposed"job site, all have a Project Address that is different than what is posted on the 8 ft by 4 ft sign posted near 7th and Beacon (Proposed Land Use Action). A member of the Renton Building Department called this a"misrepresentation of fact." It would appear, to someone unfamiliar with the project,that both legal documents(the sign and the 8-1/2 x 11 legal notices) both state the job site as being one-half mile apart. (Measured in a straight line) I wish to point this out to you as a point that may be brought up at a later date during a future public hearing. y � CITY �F RENTON :77SOILPlanning/Building/Public Works Department Jesse Tanner,Mayor Gregg Zimmerman P.E.,Administrator May 26,2000 Mr.Ryan A. Fike Bennett Development 9 Lake Bellevue Drive, Suite 100-A Bellevue,WA 98005 Re: Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat,LUA00-053,PP,ECF Hold Letter Dear.Mr.Fike As you are aware,the comment period for the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat closed May 19, 2000. This week those comments have been considered by the appropriate departments of the City that are reviewing the land use action submittal. In particular,the project/park access as proposed was discussed in a meeting of members of the Development Services,Public Works (Transportation), and Community Service(Parks)Departments of the City of Renton. In addition to the design of the entry to the proposed preliminary plat and Philip Arnold Park, general transportation issues in the Renton Hill area were discussed. As you are aware,this project was scheduled for review at the May 30,2000,Environmental Review Committee.(ERC) so that they could make a State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) Threshold Determination. At this time, additional information will be required prior to the ERC meeting. Therefore,the ERC meeting,and subsequently,the public hearing previously scheduled for June 27, 2000,will be rescheduled. Until additional information, as outlined in this letter, is received and accepted as adequate,the project is on hold, as of the date of this letter. As mentioned, a primary concern is_related to transportation issues on Renton Hill. For this reason,please ask the transportation engineers to supply the following: Traffic Count • Provide traffic counts for a period of twenty-four hours per day for one week for the following streets (not intersections): 1. S 7th Street between Grant Avenue S and Renton Avenue S 2. Cedar Avenue S between S 4th Street and S 5th Street 3. Renton Avenue S in the 300 block Park Traffic • Discuss additional traffic to parks for ball field use,group picnics, and general park use and how traffic generated by the park location relates to capacity of the proposed development. 1055 South Grady Way-Renton,Washington 98055 ®This paper contains 50%recycled material,20%post consumer t I Mr.Ryan A. Fike Bellevue,WA 98005 Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat,LUA00-053,PP,ECF May 26,2000 Page 3 Accident Records • Provide accident incident reports for the past five years for intersections and streets in the Renton Hill area. Characterize these by nature,location,number of incidents. This area includes streets bounded by Interstate 405 on the west and north,the Shuffieton Right of Way to the south, and the Cedar River greenway to the east.The Falcon Ridge development may be excluded. Intersection Reconfiguration Design • The intersection reconfiguration proposed is not acceptable to the Transportation Division or the Parks Department. The existing access along Beacon Way S to the park must remain as it is now. Access to the plat should be evaluated directly from SE 7th Court east of the Beacon Avenue ROW. This new intersection would include a stop sign for the new street at SE 7th Court.The existing interchange would remain unchanged. This configuration would require vehicles exiting the plat to stop at SE 7th Court,turn left onto SE 7th Court,and stop again at the existing top sign at SE 7th Court's intersection with the Seattle Pubic Utilities' ROW, Beacon Way S, S 7th Street,and Jones Avenue S. Analysis • A traffic analysis of this intersection must be submitted that demonstrates that it would operate effectively given the amount of increased traffic generated by the proposed development and the unusual number of streets that intersect. If you have any questions,please call me at 425-430-7382. You or the transportation engineer may also contact Neil Watts,Director of Development Engineering Plan Review at 425-430- 7278.

We have a sincere interest in this project as it affects our home, as we live in River Ridge adjacent to the proposed development, and the homes of Renton Hill community as a whole. Our concerns are primarily in regard to the impact this development will have on our and Renton Hill's quality of life. The primary impacts this development will have are two-fold. The additional development will significantly increase the traffic on Renton Hill and the proposed changes to the park access will increase the traffic impact to our River Ridge development. As you are aware, there are two means of access to Renton Hill,Renton and Cedar Avenues. The primary access route is Renton Avenue, which in my estimation handles well over seventy five percent of the traffic on and off the hill. I estimate that 175 to 200 lots are directly served by Renton Avenue. This estimate is based on the number of lots on and to the east of Renton Avenue. The proposed development has 56 lots that would be served by Renton Avenue access. These additional lots represent a 30 percent increase in lots served by Renton Avenue. Based on 9 plus trips per household this is over 500 additional trips per day of traffic to be handled by Renton Avenue. Renton Avenue is not designed or suited for the present traffic let alone such a significant increase in traffic. Renton Avenue is narrow with parking on one side and two blind vertical curves. It is hazardous at all times. Two large vehicles cannot safely pass requiring one vehicle to pull over. The additional traffic, in addition to the present residential traffic, does not take into account the traffic to and from the park, especially when baseball games are scheduled. South 7th street is not currently marked for through traffic having uncontrolled intersections from Philip Arnold Park to Renton Avenue. In-fact 7th is the main thoroughfare by default which has created an unsafe condition for out-of-area drivers. The present traffic from the park after a ball game comes out at excessive speeds in a steady stream. Increased traffic from the new development will only exasperate the condition. One of the proposed mitigation measures is a fee based on the estimated additional vehicle trips attributed to the proposed development. We are unclear how this fee could be used to —2— May 15,2000 alleviate the traffic issues. Renton Avenue cannot be widened without removing the one side parking on the east side. Removal of this parking would create an extreme hardship on the residents of Renton Avenue that have older homes with limited or no on property parking We are aware that traffic counters were placed near the I-405 overpasses late last year for a short period of time. We do not believe that any traffic counters were placed on Renton Avenue or S. Th Street and therefore, do not believe that an accurate traffic study was conducted. We request that the City conduct a well-planned traffic study to determine the true traffic on Renton Avenue. Our second concern is the proposed access to the new development via the River Ridge development entering onto SE 7th court. The present park access would be abandoned and would be via the proposed development. We strongly disagree with this proposal as having a serious impact on River Ridge and on the proposed development if it is approved. As a River Ridge resident with small children, we do not want additional traffic from the new development onto our dead end street, even for a short distance at the "entrance", let alone streams of park traffic. At present, the park traffic is isolated from River Ridge. We are sure that prospective residents of the Heritage development would not want park traffic through their neighborhood either. We request that the City take this into review and leave the present park access unchanged no matter where the Heritage access is proposed. Additionally,we feel that the Heritage access should be off Beacon Way. Under no circumstance would we be in favor of opening the gates near the Park to Puget Drive. While this could provide another access route to the Hill, it would cause Renton Hill to become a thoroughfare for the residential areas to the south. We understand that this access was open in the past causing a marked increase in traffic and crime on Renton Hill. This access would destroy the safety we presently enjoy in our neighborhood. We understand that the sale price offered by the developer for the School District property is contingent on the number of developable lots approved. While this may be in the best interest of the School District to obtain the highest price it is not in the interest of the residents of Renton Hill or the community as a whole. Other uses of the property should be explored. With ever increasing development within the City of Renton, this remains as one of the few natural undeveloped areas close to downtown. We feel that this natural area and what if offers to the community and wildlife should not be lost to the addition of more homes. We understand that we cannot stand in the way of "progress", however, we respectfully request that you consider the significant negative impacts a development of this size will have on us and Renton Hill.

Lots would range in size from 4,504 sf to 8,318 sf. The average lot size would be approximately 5,350 sf. The triangular-shaped property is located on Renton Hill, southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way South with SE 7th Court, Jones Avenue South, and South 7th Street. Although Renton Hill is a well established neighborhood, land abutting the proposed project to the north has been developed fairly recently into the"River Ridge," eleven- lot, subdivision. "Falcon Ridge,"a large (80 lots)subdivision, lies to the southeast. Philip Arnold Park, a developed park in the City of Renton park system, is adjacent to the southwest. The Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement, which is used occasionally for overflow parking from the park, separates the park from the proposed development property. The property is in a Residential 8 (R-8) Zone, which requires/allows between 5.0 and 8.0 dwelling units per net acre (du/a). Approximately 88,862.4 sf (2.04 acre) of the site would be public right-of-ways and therefore is deducted from the gross square footage of the site for density calculations. The net site area is approximately 361,983.6 sf (8.31 acre), therefore the density would be 5.5 du/a. Access would be from a new public street that would intersect with SE 7th Court, in the River Ridge development.The new street would terminate in a cul-de-sac. An emergency-only access would connect the cul-de-sac with the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement. A modification from street standards has been requested to reduce the width of the public right-of-way from 50 feet to 42 feet. There are no existing structures on the site. Approximately 54,974 cubic yards of topsoil would be cut on the site, with approximately 19,233 cubic yards of fill material being replaced following excavation. The project requires Environmental Review, Preliminary Plat approval by the Hearing Examiner, and administrative approval of a reduced public street right-of-way(from 50 to 42 feet wide). Project Location: The project is located on Renton Hill, southeast of the intersection of Beacon Way South with SE 7th Court,Jones Avenue South, and South 7th Street. Exist.

The applicant should contact Paul Alexander of The King County Department of Transportation, Metro Transportation, Metro Transit Route Facilities at 206-684-1599, regarding Metro's requirements for potential transit service in the area (no service is currently available to Renton Hill). D. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS In compliance with RCW 43.21 C.240, the following project environmental review addresses only those project impacts that are not adequately addressed under existing development standards and environmental regulations. 1. Earth/Geology Impacts:The site is located on the Covington Drift Upland, an elevated drift plain in the Puget Sound Lowland geomorphic'province. The Puget Sound Lowland is a basin lying between the Cascade and Olympic Mountains and is covered mainly by glacially-deposited sediments. The plain was formed during the last period of continental glaciation that ended approximately 13,500 years ago. The site lies near the northwestern corner of the upland plain at an elevation of approximately 400 feet above sea level. In Renton, the area is known as "Renton Hill." The soils on the property, as indicated in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, King County Area, Renton Quadrangle are Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (6 to 15%) and Indianola loamy fine sand (6 to 15%), which are consistent with the site's glacial history and field tests. The applicant has provided a geotechnical report by Geotech Consultants, Inc. ("the geotech"), dated September 14, 1999,for the proposed Preliminary Plat. Subsurface conditions were explored by means of fourteen pit excavations on the property. Material encountered included native topsoil, loose gravelly sand, occasional boulders, loose fill including construction debris, concrete, and asphalt rubble. No groundwater seepage or wet soil was observed during the tests. The report indicates that existing soils were identified as weathered, gravelly sand overlaying dense to very dense, gravelly sand. Loose fill with concrete rubble and other construction debris and household garbage was encountered to a depth of 13 feet below grade on the west portion of the property. Regarding former coal mining activities in the vicinity of the property,the City of Renton Coal Mine Hazards map (RMC 4-3-050.R.3.a(1) i) indicates the area of the property has a"moderate"hazard from abandoned coal mines. The Geologic Structure Map of the Renton Coal Mine, Renton Coal Company(undated), also indicates up to five shafts at levels 6 through 9 crossed the property from north to south. The coal mine hazards are typical of the Renton Hill Area, with the exception that"high"hazards are indicated along the west side of the hill. ercrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Environs tl Review Committee Staff Report HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARYi-::fiT LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 8 of 16 The geotechnical engineering report, supplemented by information obtained from an Abandoned Mine Assessment, prepared by Hart Crowser, Inc., dated August 16, 1999, indicates that the site is underlain by three deep coal seams. Two of the seams have historic mine workings. The shallowest of these lies approximately 250 to 300 feet beneath the surface. The deeper one is 475 to 765 feet below the surface.These may have been mined into the early 1920s. According to the geotech report,there were no apparent signs of slope instability, or evidence of mines as indicated by air shafts, trenches, or ground subsidence. Hart Crowser's recommendations regarding potential subsidence caused by past coal mining activity and remaining mine shafts were incorporated into the Geotech Consultants report. These recommendations include the following: • The geotechnical engineer should review the construction documents to verify that the recommendations have been incorporated into the design of the project. • All footings should be continuous, with increased steel reinforcement,to span potential isolated subsidence areas and reduce differential settlement. • Post-and-beam construction should be considered to allow for relatively easy releveling in the event of settlement. • Concrete slabs-on-grade should be avoided in favor of floors on joints. • All new construction should include vapor barriers and well-ventilated crawl spaces to mitigate mine gas emissions. • Rigid structural materials, such as concrete and masonry, should be avoided where possible in favor of more flexible materials like steel and timber. • Avoid siding, weather stripping materials, and interior floor and wall coverings that are settlement sensitive. • Plan regular maintenance for weather stripping, utilities, and mechanical systems which may be affected by building movement. In addition,the report further states that, "at the time of earthwork, any areas of fill in structural areas should be thoroughly investigated to verify that they are not underlain by old air shafts or mine openings. Ground subsidence could result in distress or damage to pavements and utilities and periodic maintenance and repair of these should be expected." Due to the potential risk for noticeable differential foundation settlement due to ground subsidence, staff recommends that a note be added to the face of the plat, prior to recording, stating that a known potential for ground subsidence exists in the,area and that building plans shall be designed in consultation with a structural engineer and shall conform to the recommendations of the Geotech Consultants, Inc., as found in their report dated September 14, 1999. Although there is no apparent evidence of prior occupation or development of the site, there are signs that grading has taken place in the past. Most notably,there is a"U"shaped cut slope located near the center of the site. A gravel road, apparently abandoned,crosses the southeast portion of the property to the toe of the cut slope. The engineers have speculated that gravel may have been removed from the site at the base of the slope. A 1967 aerial photograph indicates that most of the property was cleared of vegetation and may have been used at that time as a"borrow pit"for extraction of gravel used for the sub-base of Interstate 405, which appears, in the photograph,to be under construction through Renton. Slopes on the property are in excess of 40 percent with a vertical increase of greater than 15 feet. Therefore,they are "protected" under the Critical Areas Ordinance No.4835. The before-mentioned extraction of material from the sloped area of the site may have caused the slopes to be increased to the current grade of 40 percent and more. Based on the fact, as indicated on the topography map,that these slopes are isolated on the site, staff recommends an exception to prohibition of development of protected slopes in the Critical Areas Ordinance be granted so that grading may occur in the protected slope area. This exception may be granted through a modification of the Critical Areas Ordinance for: "Grading to the extent that it eliminates all or portions of a mound or to allow reconfiguration of protected slopes created through mineral and natural resource recovery activities or public or private road installation..." (RMC 4-3-050.K.2) ercrpt.doc City of Renton PB/PW Department Environs rl Review Committee Staff Report , HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY'-_ T LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 9 of 16 Further indication of former surficial mining activity on the west portion of the property is shown on the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, King County Area (Renton Quadrangle, Sheet 11, dated 1970). In addition to grading of the slopes, according to the geotech,some overexcavation may be required to expose competent bearing soils.The geotechnical report recommended that the fill be removed from building areas. Fill soils are not suitable for supporting the loads associated with the proposed development. Foundations in these areas either will need to be overexcavated, or be pile-or pier-supported. The geotechnical report stated that shallow slope movement may occur near the steep slope located at the northeast corner of the property at Lot 35 (as shown on Preliminary Plat plan dated 8/31/00). The property corner is located at the top of an approximately 63%slope that is immediately off site. The geotech recommends setting houses and other occupied structures back from this slope twenty-five feet and not clearing or grading within ten feet. The conceptual grading plan, as submitted, is consistent with these recommendations, in terms of the ten foot setback. The building setback is shown on the conceptual plan at twenty feet. Staff recommends that this setback be increased to twenty- five feet as recommended by Geotech Consultants, Inc., in their report dated September 14, 1999. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to follow all recommendations of Geotech Consultants, Inc., as found in their report dated September 14, 1999. The conceptual grading plan indicates that approximately 54,974 cubic yards (82,461 tons) of cut material will be created and 19,233 cy(28,850 tons) of fill would be required. This indicates a high number of hauling trips by large trucks will be necessary. To reduce the impact on local streets, staff has recommended additional restrictions on hauling hours, beyond those required by City of Renton codes (see also Transportation section). The applicant must submit a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan with construction drawings as required by Renton Municipal Code. Staff recommends erosion control methods be in place during site and building construction as a condition of approval of the Preliminary Plat. Such erosion control shall be in place prior to the start of construction. Mitigation Measures: 1. The applicant shall follow the recommendations of the geotechnical engineers, Geotech Consultants, Inc., (report dated September 14, 1999), as they pertain to site development and building construction. 2. A note shall be added to the face of the plat, prior to recording, stating that a known potential for ground subsidence exists in the area and that building plans shall be designed in consultation with a structural engineer and shall conform to the recommendations of Geotech Consultants, Inc., as found in their report dated September 14, 1999. 3. The rear setback at the lot located in the northeast corner of the property(Lot 35 on the plan dated 8/31/00) shall be twenty-five feet. A note shall be placed on the title of the lot, prohibiting building construction within twenty-five feet and clearing within ten feet of the rear property line, as shown on the revised plan submitted by the applicant and dated 8/31/00. 4. The applicant shall install a silt fence along the downslope perimeter of the area that is to be disturbed. The silt fence shall be in place before clearing and grading is initiated, and shall be constructed in conformance with the specifications presented in the KCSWDM. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements was well as building construction. 5. Shallow drainage swales shall be constructed to intercept surface water flow and route the flow away from the construction area to a stabilized discharge point. Vegetation growth shall be established in the ditch by seeding or placing sod. Depending on site grades, it may be necessary to line the ditch with rock to protect the ditch from erosion and to reduce flow rates. The design and construction of drainage swales shall conform to the specifications presented in the most recent KCSWDM. Temporary pipe systems can also be used to convey stormwater across the site. This will be required during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements, as well as building construction. ercrpt.doc City of Renton PB/PW Department Environ,: 1 Review Committee Staff Report 'HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY .hl LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 10 of 16 6. The project contractor shall perform daily review and maintenance of all erosion and sedimentation control measures at the site during the construction of both off-site and on-site improvements as well as building construction. 7. Weekly reports on the status and condition of the erosion control plan with any recommendations of change or revision to maintenance schedules or installation shall be submitted by the project Engineer of Record to the Public Works Inspector for the construction of the civil improvements of the plat. Certification of the installation, maintenance and proper removal of the erosion control facilities shall be required prior to recording of the plat. Nexus: RMC 4-4-060, Grading, Excavation, and Mining Regulations; RMC 4-3-050 Critical Areas Regulations; SEPA 2. Air Impacts: It is anticipated that some adverse air quality impacts would be associated with the site work, building construction phase of the project, and to a certain extent,with subsequent occupation of homes. Project development impacts include dust resulting from grading, exhaust from construction vehicles, and odors from roofing installation, and roadway paving. Dust would be controlled through the use of temporary erosion control measures and the sprinkling of the site as needed. Odor impacts are unavoidable and would be short-term in nature. Post development impacts include vehicle exhaust and the exhaust from heating. Vehicle and construction equipment exhaust, and exhaust from heating sources are controlled by state and federal regulations. The removal of a significant number of trees (see Vegetation, below) may have an effect on air temperature, wind direction and velocity, and acoustics in the neighborhood of the property from a resulting change in the microclimate and environment. Staff encourages the applicant to preserve as many existing trees as possible in accordance with RMC 4-4-130, Tree Cutting and Land Clearing Regulations, `Tree Preservation: Trees shall be maintained to the maximum extent feasible on the property where they are growing" in order to reduce potential impacts. No site specific mitigation for the identified potential impacts are required. Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 3. Water Impacts: Surface water: There are no known wetlands or surface water bodies on the site, according to the geotechnical engineers, Geotech Consultants, Inc., as found in their report dated September 14, 1999. The property is not shown to be in a flood-prone area on FEMA maps. Ground water:There was no indication of groundwater to a depth of 13 feet, or that problems associated with groundwater would be encountered, according to the geotechnical engineers, Geotech Consultants, Inc., as found in their report dated September 14, 1999.The project is located in the City of Renton Aquifer Protection Area Zone 2. Stormwater Control: Stormwater flows generated by the proposed development would remain on site temporarily, until pre-development release rates are achieved Stormwater will be collected in a series of catch basins and routed to a biofiltration swale and infiltration pond. Release will be to a piped system north of the property. Runoff from individual lots would be discharged into infiltration trenches located within each lot. Infiltration discharge systems would be consistent with existing infiltration rates. The applicant has proposed utilizing the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual. No mitigation is required. ercrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Environ 21 Review Committee Staff Report , HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARI I-EAT LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 11 of 16 Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 4. Vegetation Impacts: Due to soil removal and grading on site, most of the trees and vegetation would be removed. The applicant has provided a Tree Cutting/Land Clearing Plan that indicates approximately 389 evergreen and deciduous trees would be removed prior to site construction. Approximately 32 trees would be preserved, if possible. Ornamental residential landscaping would be provided by the developer, house builder, or homeowner in areas cleared of vegetation for site and house construction. The applicant has proposed that several landscaped areas or"pocket parks"would be created.These areas total approximately 16,896 sf (0.39 acre). A portion of the stormwater tract would also be preserved as a"landscaped area." The submitted plans indicate that trees would be preserved in these areas if possible. Mitigation Measures: None required Nexus: Not applicable 5. Animals Impacts: The area of the proposed project is shown on the City of Renton Wildlife Habitat Map (December 4, 1991) as having a"Forest Habitat." The applicant has indicated that songbirds and deer are known to be on or near the site. Other mammals that adapt easily to urban environments are likely to inhabit the property, such as coyote, raccoon, opossum,squirrel, mice, and rats.The proposed development would have a significant impact on wildlife habitats located on the property. There has been a continuing reduction in wildlife habitat on Renton Hill as land has been developed from natural habitat on all sides of the property.Wildlife on the property will probably move into the Cedar River Natural Area, a 243 acre protected open space abutting the property to the north. In all likelihood, some of the above mentioned wildlife would continue to forage for food in the residential community on the property in spite of development. Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 6. Energy and Natural Resources Impacts: The applicant has proposed that natural gas be used to heat homes and both natural gas and electricity would provide additional energy needs. Energy conservation is regulated by the State of Washington Energy Code. The property is mapped on the City of Renton natural resource map as a possible source of sand and/or gravel, in the City's"Critical Area and Resource Lands,"dated March 1, 1992. Mitigation Measures: None required.

Environmental Health Impacts: The applicant submitted a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, by Geotech Consultants, Inc., dated September 9, 2000. This report identified construction debris (wood, plastic piping, pieces of concrete and asphalt, etc.),tires, bottles,furniture, yard waste, and other household items disposed of on the property as being apparently non-hazardous. The construction debris, however, could include asbestos-containing building materials, remnants of lead-based paint, or products containing PCBs. Therefore, staff recommends a condition that would require all construction debris and discarded items to be excavated from the site and construction to cease immediately, followed by notification of the City of Renton Development Services Division within 24 hours, should hazardous material be discovered during removal. A records search did not reveal hazardous conditions or sites near the property. The closest areas of potential contamination are the Pacific Car and Foundry(National Priority List, one mile north) and the Northwest Pipeline (Washington State Department of Ecology confirmed and Suspected Contaminated Sites, seven-eighths of a mile to the southwest). Neither of these are considered near enough to influence the environment at the project site. In addition to temporary noise and odors associated with construction activities, an increase in traffic noise and sound associated with single family residential neighborhoods can be expected if this project is developed. The applicant has proposed a fifteen foot"vegetative buffer"along the north property line, adjacent to the River Ridge development, which would somewhat reduce these impacts to that neighborhood. Mitigation Measures:The applicant shall ensure that all construction debris and discarded items are excavated from the site and construction to ceased immediately,followed by notification of the City of Renton Development Services Division within 24 hours, should hazardous material be discovered during said removal. Nexus: Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency Regulation III, Article 4; Model Toxic Control Act Cleanup Regulation WAC 173-340 8. Land Use Impacts: The property is currently vacant and has not had known development in the past. Aerial photographs indicate the property was covered with low vegetation at least from 1936 to 1946. Clearing of vegetation commenced by 1960. Mining may have occurred around 1967, and cleared land is still shown on the northern portion of the property in 1968 through 1974. By 1980,the northern portion of the property is again covered by low vegetation with more dense vegetation on the remainder of the property. The property is owned by the Renton School District, but declared surplus property several years ago and therefore, is available for development. Property to the north was developed into the River Ridge subdivision in 1994. Falcon Ridge, another single family residential subdivision, developed in 1989, lies to the east and south. A Seattle Public Utilities right-of-way,for the Cedar River pipeline, abuts the property along its west boundary. Philip Arnold Park, a developed City of Renton facility, is adjacent to the west. The proposed development is consistent with the current zoning of the site, Residential 8 (R-8), which requires development of at least five dwelling units per net acre. Net acreage is determined by deducting areas of public and private streets. The maximum density allowed in the R-8 Zone is eight dwelling units per acre. The proposed project, with 57 lots, would have a density of 5.5 dwelling units per net acre. Development of the property has been envisioned through the comprehensive planning process. The Comprehensive Plan land use designation for the property is Single Family Residential. Therefore,the proposed development is consistent with the policies of the comprehensive plan. Mitigation Measures: None required.

Housing Impacts: The property is currently vacant and no housing units would be eliminated due to the development of the property.The applicant has requested approval to subdivide the property into 57 lots suitable for single family residential development. Home values have been estimated by the applicant to be in the"middle income range." No conditions to reduce or control housing impacts are recommended. Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 10. Aesthetics Impacts: The applicant has proposed several pocket parks and landscape areas throughout the proposed development. A fifteen foot"vegetative buffer"has been proposed within the 20 foot rear setback area along the north property line. Properties with rear yards abutting the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement would probably erect fences, which would change the character of the area facing Philip Arnold Park. No conditions, beyond what the applicant has proposed, are recommended to mitigate impacts of the proposed development on aesthetics. Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 11. Light and Glare Impacts: The proposed project would generate light from street lights, interior and exterior residential lighting, and vehicle headlights. Additional traffic, generated by the proposed development, could increase light on streets throughout the area. Homes, particularly those adjacent to Philip Arnold Park, could be impacted by light spillover from a lighted sport field, parking lot lights, other park lighting, and vehicle headlights from park users. There are no city or state regulations, however, beyond nuisance law,that regulate visual discomfort. Therefore no mitigating measures are recommended. Mitigation Measures: None required. Nexus: Not applicable 12. Recreation Impacts:The applicant has proposed that several landscaped areas or"pocket parks"would be created within the development.These areas total approximately 16,896 sf (0.39 acre). These would all be accessible to either community members,from within the development, or the community,from the Seattle Public Utilities easement (depending on the park's location) if they remain unfenced. Their small size, however, will limit there usefulness. Philip Arnold Park, a 10 acre, developed City of Renton park, is located adjacent to the property across the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement. It is anticipated that the proposed development would generate future residents that would utilize existing City park and recreation facilities and programs. The City has adopted a Parks Mitigation Fee of$530.76 per each new single family lot to address these potential impacts.Therefore, payment of a Park Mitigation Fee is recommended as a condition of approval. Payment is required prior to recording the plat. ercrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Environ zl Review Committee Staff Report HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARYrcaT LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 14 of 16 Mitigation Measures:The applicant shall pay the Parks Mitigation Fee at the rate of$530.76 per each new single family residential lot. The fee is due prior to the recording of the plat. Nexus: Park and Recreation Facilities Mitigation Policy and Fee Resolution No. 3082; Environmental (SEPA) Ordinance 13. Historic and Cultural Preservation Impacts:The proposed project would be located on Renton Hill, a well-established neighborhood in the City approximately 0.5 square mile in area. The Renton Hill neighborhood is somewhat of an "island" in the center of the City. On the north and east it is isolated from the Cedar River and Maple Valley Highway by steep, wooded slopes. To the west, one must bridge Interstate 405 to access the area (see Transportation, below). Access from the south is limited because the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline easement is closed to through traffic. The neighborhood is characterized by older homes, some dating to the beginning of the century. Newer development has been limited, except for single-lot subdivisions with newer single home construction and River Ridge, an eleven-lot subdivision developed in the 1990's. Due to the closeness of the neighborhood, homes are passed from one generation to another, and several generations of the same family and extended families live in the same neighborhood. While a 57 lot subdivision may not seem large in another context, on Renton Hill it may have a impact on the character of the neighborhood. It could be argued, however,that a potential change would probably not be more than other neighborhoods in the City are experiencing, particularly since growth is now contained within city boundaries due to the Growth Management Act. The evolution of the Renton Hill neighborhood has been somewhat constrained due to a lack of available land, therefore the development of this project would be a more dramatic change. Mitigation Measures: None required Nexus: N/A 14. Transportation Impacts:The proposed project would be accessed at the only place the property abuts a public street. A new public street into the development would intersect with SE 7th Court,the access road to the River Ridge development. The internal streets would terminate in a cul-de-sac at the south portion of the property. An emergency access road would connect the cul-de-sac with the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement. The applicant submitted a traffic impact study, "Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis," by Transportation Planning & Engineering, Inc., dated January 27,2000. Subsequently, additional information was requested by staff and the applicant responded by submitting, "Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis, Addendum No.2,"by Transportation Planning & Engineering, Inc., dated September 11, 2000. The following information is summarized from the submitted traffic studies: • Sight distances at the nearest main intersection, where Beacon Way S, S 7th Street, SE 7th Court, and Jones Avenue S come together, meet American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) stopping sight distance requirements because each leg would be stop-sign controlled. • Although the distance between the entry road to the project and the intersection (110') is below the City design guideline for spacing of intersections (150'when possible), traffic operations should be adequate, based on low traffic volumes. • Cedar Avenue S is a 27 foot wide, two lane road, with parking on both sides. Through traffic is occasionally reduced to one lane. • Renton Avenue S is a 26 foot wide two lane street, with parking prohibited on the west side. ercrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Enviror, al Review Committee Staff Report • HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY PLAT LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 15 of 16 • Both Cedar and Renton Avenues are signed for the northbound, downhill traffic to yield to southbound, uphill traffic. • South 7th Street, east of High Avenue S, is a 30 foot wide road, with no curbs or gutters, and a sidewalk only on the south side. Parking is allowed on both sides. • South 7th Street, west of High Avenue S, is 36 feet wide, with no curbs or gutter, but with sidewalks on both sides. Parking is allowed on both sides. • Between Cedar and Renton Avenues, S. 7th Street is very steep with grades in excess of fifteen percent. • All intersections studied meet Level of Service (LOS) B or better(the City of Renton requires LOS D or better at intersections). • Although additional traffic volumes from the proposed project would increase traffic on Renton Hill by approximately 25%, Levels of Service would not be impacted. • There is no transit service for residents on Renton Hill, due to the steep grades and narrow lanes. • There does not appear to be any existing recurring accident problem (accidents reported). • There is no appreciable increase in traffic due to usage of Philip Arnold Park (traffic volume counts do not vary significantly on a seasonal basis). • No improvements are planned by the City of Renton for streets on Renton Hill. The City of Renton regulates construction hauling (RMC 4-4-030C.2)so that it must occur only between the hours of 8:30 am and 3:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Due to the narrowness of the existing streets, however, staff recommends that the required Construction Plan Traffic Control Plan (RMC 4-4-030C.1.a) be approved conditionally upon inclusion of a requirement that construction vehicles in excess 26,000 gvw, associated with the project, be prohibited to operate on Renton Hill during am and pm peak traffic hours as identified by the traffic consultants in their report of September 11, 2000. It is estimated that the proposed project would generate approximately 9.55 new average daily trips (weekday) for each new single family residential home. Fifty-seven parcels are proposed, therefore, an estimated 544 trips per day will be added to the transportation system. The City of Renton has adopted a Transportation Mitigation Fee to address the impacts to the City's transportation system caused by development, including this proposed project. The applicant would need to pay the appropriate Transportation Mitigation Fee of$75.00 per each new average daily trip attributable to the project. The fee is estimated to be$40,826.25, and is payable prior to the recording of the plat. Mitigation Measures: 1. The Construction Plan traffic control plan shall include a condition that construction vehicles in excess 26,000 gvw, associated with the project, would be prohibited from operating on Renton Hill during am and pm peak traffic hours as identified in the report, "Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis, Addendum No. 2,"by Transportation Planning & Engineering, Inc„ dated September 11, 2000. 2. The applicant shall pay the applicable Transportation Mitigation Fee at the rate of$75.00 per each new average weekday trip attributable to the project, estimated to be 9.55 average weekday trips per new single family lot. The Transportation Mitigation Fee is due prior to the recording of the plat. Nexus: RMC 4-4-030C Construction Standards 15. Fire Protection Impacts: The proposal would result in the construction of 57 new single family lots. Future residents would potentially have the need for emergency services which would impact the City's Fire Department. Fire Prevention Bureau staff report that they can serve this development provided that the City Code required improvements are installed, appropriate fire access is provided, and Fire Mitigation Fees are paid. In order to offset the impacts associated with new development, all new residential construction is subject to a Fire Mitigation Fee. The fee is calculated on a per lot basis. The current fee is $488.00 per single family lot. The total feet would be $27,816.00 Due to the length of the internal roads, a second access would be required by code. The applicant has proposed an "emergency only"secondary access from the end of the cul-de-sac to the Seattle Public Utilities Cedar River Pipeline Easement. As a condition of approval,the applicant shall obtain an access permit from the Seattle Public Utilities for the secondary, "emergency only"access. ercrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Envirom l Review Committee Staff Report • HERITAGE RENTON HILL PRELIMINARY; f LUA00-053,PP,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF OCTOBER 17,2000 Page 16 of 16 Mitigation Measures: 1.

It would seem that if we continue to only discuss the traffic issue, that we are focusing on the traffic itself rather than backing up and looking at it from a more macro level. I would think it is fair to assume that Cedar is nothing more than an access alley with the cars parked on both sides of the street. That situation ,1, truly forces one car per in the event you meet some one on the hill. If cars were parked line to line,on both sides of the street, Cedar would become a one way street. This leaves Renton Avenue as the principle s arterial for the hill. I would expect,without having read the traffic report, that 80% ►�of the traffic uses , Renton Avenue. Unfortunately, going down the hill results in a funnel. 7th avenue is full width even with cars parked on the side of the street, but Renton avenue results in an almost one way situation. There remains just enough room to allow two cars but in a controlled situation. People being what we are, and with the continued influx of people either from the park activities, or the bicyclists, or added housing begins to erode the old time consideration of"Yield to uphill traffic" Coupled with the sense of urgency we all have gives rise to a situation where there will be a serious accident on Renton Avenue. Someday it will happen. In that event, the question will come up as to why the situation on Renton avenue was allowed to exist knowing full well the increase in traffic flow caused by the proposed project both during its development as well as after it is completed. It would seem that the City of Renton may be putting itself in a situation where it should have known the possibilities of human error and either prevented further development on the hill or took specific action to manage the traffic flow to allow normal access to and from the hill. I do not feel that it is prudent for the city to rely on the good judgement of the population such that it assume on eveyone making a sacrifice to always drive slower,to always watch for children more often, and not to speed. I dont expect the environmental statement addressed this part, but isnt this situation of our daily environment such that you cannot separate traffic from the environmental concerns? And if it is separated, should it be? And if it is, should they be considered as a package. Perhaps the individuals who will review all of the forthcoming information will.

These comments are as follows: Has the encroachment of approximately 3,239 square feet onto the subject property from Lot 3 of the plat of River Ridge been addressed? Said encroachment was referenced in the April 6,2000,title report as being disclosed in the Survey recorded under King County Record No. 20000330900003. Has the City of Seattle provided written approval for the use of the water pipe line right-of-way for access to the subject plat? The applicant should formally request the City of Renton to pursue with the City of Seattle an easement adequate for the purposes needed for the subject plat, if that has not already been done. Information needed for final plat approval includes the following: Note the City of Renton land use action number and land record number,LUA-XX-XXX-FP and LND-10-0354,respectively, on the drawing,preferably in the upper right-hand corner. The type size used for the land record number should be smaller than that used for the land use action number. Please note that the land use action number for the final plat will be different from the preliminary plat and is unknown as of this date. A licensed surveyor will need to prepare and sign the final plat drawings. Show ties to the City of Renton Survey Control Network. Provide plat and lot closure calculations. Complete City of Renton Monument Cards,with reference points of all new right-of-way monuments set as part of the plat. \\TS SERVER\SYS2\COMMON\H:\FILE.SYS\LND\10\0354\RV000921.DOC September 21, 2000 Page 2 Include a statement of equipment and procedures used,per WAC 332-130-100. Indicate what has been, or is to be, set at the corners of the proposed lots. Note the date the existing monuments were visited,per WAC 332-130-150, and what was found. Note all easements, agreements and covenants of record on the drawing. Note the encroachment, if still pertinent, on the drawing. Note discrepancies between bearings and distances of record and those measured or calculated, if any. Note whether the adjoining properties are platted(give plat name and lot number)or unplatted. The city will provide addresses for the proposed lots after the preliminary plat. The addresses will need to be noted on the drawing. On the final plat submittal,remove all references to trees, utility facilities,topog lines and other items not directly impacting the subdivision. These items are provided only for the preliminary plat approval. Required City of Renton signatures(for approval of the plat) include the Administrator of Planning/Building/Public Works,the Mayor and the City Clerk. An approval block for the city's Finance Director is also required. The appropriate King County approvals need to be noted on the drawing also. The owners of the subject plat need to sign the final plat document. Include notary blocks as needed. Include a dedication/certification block on the drawing. Because the subject property falls within Zone 2 of the City of Renton Aquifer Protection Area,the Aquifer Protection Notice needs to be noted on the drawing. See the attachment. Because the subject property also falls within an area identified by the city as a moderate(medium) coal mine hazard area,the following statement needs to be noted on the final plat drawing: "The lots created herein fall within a coal mine hazard area as identified by a geotechnical engineer at the time of this subdivision. Presence of such a hazard may trigger mitigation measures at the time of construction." An updated Plat Certificate will be required,dated within 45 days of Council action on approval of the plat. Note that if there are restrictive covenants or agreements to others as part of this subdivision,they can be recorded concurrently with the plat. The plat drawing and the associated document(s)are to be given to the Project Manager as a package. The plat shall have the first recording number. The recording number(s)for the associated document(s)will be referenced on the plat in the appropriate locations.

Ahead of the curve • • CITY OF RENTON PLANNINGBUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS MEMORANDUM DATE: May 11, 2000 TO: Elizabeth Higgins FROM: Sonja J.FesserR SUBJECT: Heritage Philip Arnold Preliminary Plat,LUA-00-053,PP Format and Legal Description Review Bob Mac Onie and I have reviewed the above referenced preliminary plat submittal and have the following comments: Comments for the Applicant: How is the encroachment of approximately 3,239 square feet onto the subject property from Lot 3 of the plat of River Ridge(disclosed in a Record of Survey recorded under King County Recording No. 20000330900003)to be addressed? Has the City of Seattle provided written approval for the use of the water pipe line right-of-way for access to the subject plat? The applicant should formally request the City of Renton to pursue with the City of Seattle an easement adequate for the purposes needed for the subject plat, if that has not already been done. Information needed for final plat approval includes the following: Note the City of Renton land use action number and land record number,LUA-XX-XXX-FP and LND-10-0354,respectively, on the drawing,preferably in the upper right-hand corner. The type size used for the land record number should be smaller than that used for the land use action number. Please note that the land use action number for the final plat will be different from the preliminary plat and is unknown as of this date. Show ties to the City of Renton Survey Control Network. Provide plat and lot closure calculations. Complete City of Renton Monument Cards,with reference points of all new right-of-way monuments set as part of the plat. Include a statement of equipment and procedures used,per WAC 332-130-100. \\TS SERVER\SYS2\COMMON\H:\FILE.SYS\LND\10\0354\RV000510.DOC IMP May 10, 2000 imp Page 2 Indicate what has been, or is to be, set at the corners of the proposed lots. Note the date the existing monuments were visited,per WAC 332-130-150, and what was found. Note all easements, agreements and covenants of record on the drawing. Note the encroachment, if still pertinent, on the drawing. Note discrepancies between bearings and distances of record and those measured or calculated, if any. Note whether the adjoining properties are platted(give plat name and lot number)or unplatted. The city will provide addresses for the proposed lots after the preliminary plat. The addresses will need to be noted on the drawing. On the final plat submittal,remove all references to trees,utility facilities,topog lines and other items not directly impacting the subdivision. These items are provided only for the preliminary plat approval. Required City of Renton signatures (for approval of the plat) include the Administrator of Planning/Building/Public Works,the Mayor and the City Clerk. An approval block for the city's Finance Director is also required. The appropriate King County approvals need to be noted on the drawing also. The owners of the subject plat need to sign the final plat document. Include notary blocks as needed. Include a dedication/certification block on the drawing. Because the subject property falls within Zone 2 of the City of Renton Aquifer Protection Area,the Aquifer Protection Notice needs to be noted on the drawing. See the attachment. Because the subject property also falls within an area identified by the city as a moderate(medium) coal mine hazard area,the following statement needs to be noted on the final plat drawing: "The lots created herein fall within a coal mine hazard area as identified by a geotechnical engineer at the time of this subdivision. Presence of such a hazard may trigger mitigation measures at the time of construction." An updated Plat Certificate will be required,dated within 45 days of Council action on approval of the plat. Note that if there are restrictive covenants or agreements to others as part of this subdivision,they can be recorded concurrently with the plat. The plat drawing and the associated document(s)are to be given to the Project Manager as a package. The plat shall have the first recording number. The recording number(s)for the associated document(s)will be referenced on the plat in the appropriate locations. i'new easements are shown for the benefit of future owners of the proposed lots,then include the following statement,juxtaposed to the subject easements: "Area for private(water, sewer,utilities, 11111 May 10,2000 Page 3 access,etc.) easement." Since the new lots created via this plat are under common ownership at the time of recording,there can be no easement until such time as ownership of one of the lots is conveyed to others,together with and/or subject to specific easement rights. Also, add the following Declaration of Covenant language on the face of the subject drawing,Jf the previous paragraph applies: DECLARATION OF COVENANT.• The owners of the land embraced within this plat, in return for the benefit to accrue from this subdivision, by signing hereon covenants and agrees to convey the beneficial interest in the new easement shown on this plat to any and all future purchasers of the lots, or of any subdivisions thereof This covenant shall run with the land as shown on this plat. Fee Review Comments: The Fee Review Sheet for this review of the preliminary plat is provided for your use and information. 40 giO AQUIFER PROTECTION NOTICE THE LOTS CREATED HEREIN FALL WITHIN ZONE 2 OF RENTON'S AQUIFER PROTECTION AREA AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CITY OF RENTON ORDINANCE NO. 4367 AND AS AMENDED BY ORDINANCE NO. 4740.

The original report was prepared by Transportation Planning & Engineering (TP&E) and is dated January 5, 2000. Addendum No.1 was prepared by TP&E and is dated January 21, 2000. This addendum No. 2 has been prepared to respond to the May 26, 2000 letter to Mr. Ryan A. Fike from Elizabeth Higgens, Senior Planner for the City of Renton. Below are our responses: Traffic Volumes The City requested 24-hour traffic counts for one week at the following locations: 1. S. 7th St. between Grant Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S. 2. Cedar Ave. S. between S. 4th St. and S. 5th St. 3. Renton Ave. S. in the 300 block. Trafficount performed 24 hour counts at the above locations for 20 days between Saturday, June 24, 2000 and Sunday, July 23, 2000. The averages of each individual day as well as the average daily traffic (ADT, taken over the seven days of the week) and average weekday traffic (AWDT, average of Monday through Friday traffic) are shown in the table below: • 1LLarry kl-ProJec sIR0680991R068Orptadd2.doc • • Mr. Ryan A.

Likewise, traffic volumes are fairly constant on Renton Ave. S. throughout the week with the least amount of traffic during the middle of the week. Our original traffic report for the project presented 24-hour counts that were taken on Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S. on the west side of 1-405. From these counts estimates were made on the amount of traffic at the above count locations. Our estimates proved to be slightly higher than the actual counts. Therefore our original study can be considered conservative. Park Traffic • The counts taken for this addendum also indicate that there is not an appreciable increase in traffic due to usage of the Phillip Arnold Park. The counts that were taken • am. '-''. y in December of 1999 are very close to the latest counts taken in June and July 2000. Park usage is at its highest during the summer months for ball field uses, picnics and general use. However, the extra traffic generated by the park during the summer appears to be offset by increased traffic during_the rest of the war,..

The location of the Phillip Arnold Park should not affect the capacity of the proposed Arnold property residential development at any time of the year. As discussed below, the Arnold property access and S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection should have ample capacity to operate efficiently. Accident Records The City requested that the accident incident reports for the past five years for intersections and streets in the Renton Hill area be provided. The area requested includes streets bounded by Interstate 405 on the west and north, the Shuffleton Right Jj of Way to the south, and the Cedar River greenway to the east. !' 1LLarrykl-ProjedslR0880991R0880rpfadd2.doc ; r r • R ° ?t Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT Page - 3 - The accident records were researched and provided by the City of Renton. There were three_accidents that occurred on all of Renton Hill in the last five years. The location, date and type of each accident is detailed below: High Ave. S./S. 9th St. — Occurred on June 2, 2000. One vehicle backed into another vehicle. There were no injuries Mill Ave. S. 444 feet north of S. 5th St. — Occurred on April 7, 1996. A vehicle backing out of a driveway hit a parked vehicle. There were no injuries. Cedar Ave. S./S. 7th St. — Occurred on April 10, 2000. .A vehicle struck a parked vehicle. There were no injuries. There does not appear to be an unusually high number of accidents or any apparent accident pattern. Note that there were no recorded accidents near the Phillip Arnold Park entrance or other intersections near the Arnold Property project. Intersection Analysis The access to the proposed Arnold Property has been redesigned and is shown in Figure 1. The City has requested an analysis of the access intersection in conjunction with the existing S. 7th St./Beacon Way S./Jones Ave. S./S. 7th Ct. intersection (referred to as the S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection). The existing S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection has five legs and operates as an all-way stop intersection. The existing traffic volumes on S. 7th St. indicate that at most, an average of 987 pot4 etitecy. vehicles are currently being routed through the S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection even during the heaviest summer months. The peak hour is approximately ten percent of the daily traffic volume, or 99 trips. This corresponds to an average of one vehicle every 36 seconds. An all-way stop intersection can easily accommodate 400 to 500 or more vehicles per hour before average vehicle delay begins to move from a level of service (LOS)A to a LOS B. Both of these LOS grades indicate extreme efficiency and minimal average vehicle delays. The proposed Arnold Property project will add approximately 60 PM peak hour trips to the S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection. This will increase the total to 160 PM peak hour trips. This corresponds to an average of one vehicle every 23 seconds. Poisson probability curves show that for an average of one vehicle every 23 seconds, there is a 95 percent probability that there will be 3 or fewer vehicles arriving during the same 23 second interval. This still corresponds to average vehicle delays in the LOS A range. • The redesigned Arnold Property site access onto S. 7th Ct. allows for sight distance in excess of 300 feet along S. 7th St. and S. 7th Court. The S. 7th St./Beacon %Larry id-Projecfs1R0680991R0680rpfadd2.doe Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT Page - 4 - Way S. intersection and all of the legs are clearly visible from the Arnold Property access. Since the S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection is an all-way stop intersection, all of the vehicles coming from the intersection will be clearly visible at the Arnold Property access. Sight distance is not anticipated to be a problem at the proposed Arnold Property access. The low traffic volumes at the S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection indicate that there should be no queueing problems and therefore egress from the Arnold Property access to S. 7th Ct. should not be a problem. This addendum responds to the City's comments. If you have any questions please call me. ro�w Very truly yours, .

Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT 9 Lake Bellevue Dr., Suite 100-A Bellevue, WA 98005 Re: Arnold Property Traffic Impact Analysis Dear Mr. Fike: We are pleased to present this traffic impact analysis for the proposed Arnold property single family residential project located on the northeast side of Beacon Way S.E., south of S. 7th Ct. in the City of Renton. This study was prepared to City of Renton guidelines. We have visited the project site and surrounding street network, and have discussed the scope of this study with Mr. Neil Watts of the City of Renton Public Works Department. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Figure 1 is a vicinity map showing the location of the site and the surrounding street network. Figure 2 shows a preliminary site plan. The plan consists of the layout of 60 single family residential lots. Access to the site is proposed onto S. 7th Court via an internal plat road. The plat road will intersect S. 7th Ct. near the S. 71h St./Beacon Way S. intersection. The Arnold property vehicular access is limited to E. 7`h Ct. because the City of Seattle will not allow the use of their right-of-way for permanent roads. The City of Renton does not feel that access onto the • City of Seattle right-of-way would be beneficial. The plat road has a connection to Beacon Way S. that will be used for emergency access only. Traffic circulation on the plat road is accomplished via an internal roadway loop. TRIP GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION Trip Generation • Table 1 shows the trips generated by the proposed Arnold property single family residential project. The trip generation for the project is calculated using average trip rates from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation, Sixth Edition, 1997 for Single Family Detached Housing (ITE Land Use Code 210). A vehicle trip is defined as a single or one direction vehicle movement with either the origin or destination ('exiting or entering) inside the proposed development. These trip CA-FINAL.PROJECTSIRenton R068099rpt.doc , L ., Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT January 27, 2000 Page 2 generation values account for all site trips made by all vehicles for all purposes, including resident, visitor and service and delivery vehicle trips. The new trips generated by the Arnold property are estimated to be 45 trips during the AM peak hour, 61 trips during the PM peak hour and 574 trips during an average weekday. During the PM peak hour 64% of the trips will be entering and 36% will be exiting the development. Trip Distribution Figure 3 shows the estimated trip distribution and calculated site-generated traffic volumes. The distribution is based on the characteristics of the street network, existing traffic volume patterns, the location of likely trip origins and destinations (business, shopping, social and recreational opportunities), and expected travel times. EXISTING TRAFFIC CONDITIONS Traffic Volumes Figure 4 shows existing PM peak hour traffic volumes at pertinent intersections affected by site-generated traffic. Per discussion with City staff, the pertinent street intersections are the following: Main Ave. S./S. 4`h St. Houser Way S./Mill Ave. S. Cedar Ave. S./S. 3`d St./Mill Ave. S. Renton Ave. S./S. 7`h St. The turning movement traffic volume counts at the Main Ave. S./S. 4`h St. and Houser Way S./Mill Ave. S. intersections were obtained from the City of Renton. The City counts were taken in September and June, 1999, respectively. The remaining counts were performed by Traffic Count Consultants, Inc. on Tuesday, December 7, 1999. Additionally, 24-hour traffic volume counts were taken on Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S. for three days from Tuesday, December 7, 1999 through Thursday, December 9, 1999. These average daily traffic (ADT) volumes also appear on Figure 4 along with ADT estimates on other roadways based on the actual counts. Copies of the counts are attached. Roadway Facilities Figure 5 shows existing traffic control, number of roadway lanes, number of approach lanes at intersections, and other pertinent information in the site vicinity.

Cedar Ave. S. is a 27 foot wide, two lane road with curb, gutter and sidewalk on both sides of the street. Parking is allowed on both sides of the street, making through traffic use a single lane in sections depending on the location of the parked cars. Renton Ave. S. is 26 feet wide with curb, gutter and sidewalks on both sides of the street. There are signs posted on Renton Ave. S. prohibiting parking on the west side of the street. Therefore parking on the street occurs only on the east side of Renton Ave. South. Both Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S. are signed for the northbound, or downhill, traffic to yield to the southbound, or uphill, traffic. South 7th St. east of High Ave. S. is a 30 foot wide road with no curbs or gutters, and sidewalk only on the south side. West of High St. S., S. 7th St. is 36 feet wide with no curbs or gutters and sidewalks on both sides. Parking is allowed on both sides of the street for the entire length. Between Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S., S. 7' St. is very steep with grades in excess of 15 percent. There are no sidewalks on either side in this section. Beacon Way S. fronting the property is not constructed on a City of Renton right-of-way but rather a Seattle Water Pipeline right-of-way. The road is gated approximately halfway along the Arnold property frontage, with no through vehiclular access. Beacon Way S. does provide access to a driveway into the City's Phillip Arnold Park. The S. 7th St./Beacon Way S. intersection is a level, five-leg intersection with stop sign control on each approach. The other streets intersecting at this location are E. 7th Ct. and Jones Ave. South. The City of Renton Code, Chapter 34 provides minimum design standard guidelines for various classifications of roadways. The minimum design standard for a residential access street is a 32 foot wide roadway with curb, gutter and sidewalks on both sides located within a 50 foot wide right-of-way. Parking is allowed on both sides. The existing streets on Renton Hill • do not meet these minimum design requirements, however the use of the standards is to serve as a guideline for design projects. The design standards likely did not exist at the time the the existing Renton Hill streets were constructed. Level of Service Analysis Level of service (LOS) is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic flow, and the perception of these conditions by drivers or passengers. These conditions • CA-FINAL PROJECTSIRenfon R068099rpt.doc • 1 Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT January 27, 2000 Page 4 include factors such as speed, delay, travel time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience, and safety. Levels of service are given letter designations, from A to F, with LOS A representing the best operating conditions (free flow, little delay) and LOS F the worst(congestion, long delays). Generally, LOS A and B are high, LOS C and D are moderate, and LOS E and F are low. Table 2 shows calculated levels of service (LOS)for existing conditions at the pertinent street intersections. The LOS was calculated using the procedures in the Transportation Research Board Highway Capacity Manual- Special Report 209 3rd Edition updated December 1997. The LOS shown indicate overall intersection operation. At intersections, LOS is determined by the calculated average delay per vehicle. The 1997 HCM update revised the LOS at intersections and changed the LOS threshold to average control delay. The LOS and corresponding average control delay in seconds are as follows: TYPE OF A B C D E F INTERSECTION Signalized <10.0 >10.0 and <20.0 >20.0 and <35.0 >35.0 and <55.0 >55.0 and <80.0 >80.0 Stop Sign Control <10.0 >10 and <15 >15 and <25 >25 and < 35 >35 and < 50 >50 Currently all of the study intersections are operating at LOS B or better and therefore meet the City requirements of LOS D or better at intersections. Transit Service There currently is no transit service for the residents on Renton Hill due to the steep grades and narrow lanes. Metro transit service is available on Main Ave. S., Mill Ave. S. and Houser Way South. The Renton Transit Center is located to the west of Main Ave. S. between S. 2nd St. and S. 3`d St. for connections to Seattle and other major Puget Sound destinations. Accident History The City of Renton provided intersection accident data from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1998 for the study area. There were no recorded traffic accidents at any of the intersections on Renton Hill during the above time period. The accidents recorded at the Main Ave. S./S. 4th St. and Houser Way S./Mill Ave. S. intersections are summarized below. There were no traffic fatalities and there does not appear to be an unusually high number of accidents at any of the locations examined in the site vicinity. There does not appear to be any existing recurring accident problem. CA-FINAL PROJECTSIRenfon R068099rpf.doc ( f ' 1114 Mr. Ryan A.

There is, however, a street improvement project on Main Ave. S. that is currently being constructed. The Main Ave. S./S. 4' St. intersection will be modified to add separate northbound and southbound left turn lanes and phases. Currently a new traffic signal has been installed, but the channelization changes have not been completed. The traffic signal is assumed to be constructed and operational for future year calcualtions in this analysis. No other planned roadway projects are in the Arnold property vicinity. Traffic Volumes Figure 6 shows projected 2001 PM peak hour traffic volumes without the project. These volumes include the existing traffic volume counts plus background growth. The compounded annual traffic volume growth factor used in this analysis is 3% per year on the arterials and zero growth on the Renton Hill local access streets as directed by the City. No proposed "pipeline" land development projects were included, as.directed by the City. FUTURE TRAFFIC CONDITIONS WITH PROJECT Traffic Volumes Figure 7 shows the projected 2001 PM peak hour traffic volumes and estimated ADT traffic volumes with the proposed project. The site-generated PM peak hour and ADT traffic volumes shown on Figure 3 were added to the projected background traffic volumes shown on Figure 6 to obtain the Figure 7 volumes. Levels of Service Table 2 shows calculated LOS for future with and without project conditions at the pertinent street intersections. Our analysis shows that all of the pertinent intersections are expected to operate at or above LOS B for 2001 conditions without or with the Arnold property project. The planned traffic signal improvements at the Main Ave. S./S. 4th St. intersection are assumed to be constructed and operational for future conditions. • CA-FINAL PROJECTSIRenfon R068099rpLdoc 11 Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT January 27, 2000 Page 6 Traffic Operations The addition of the Arnold property traffic volumes will introduce approximately 25 percent more traffic to the Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. S. streets on a daily basis. During the PM peak hour, which is the highest trip generation hour of the day, the Arnold property will add approximately 30 PM peak hour trips to Cedar Ave. S. and Renton Ave. South. This is equivalent to approximately one new vehicle per two minute time span. There is no existing traffic accident problem on any of the local access streets on Renton Hill and the addition of the Arnold property traffic should not change this situation. The seasonal use of Philip Arnold Park was not considered in this report. According to residents, the Park causes an increase of traffic volumes during the summer months. The good levels of service (LOS) for the intersections in the area indicate that a substantial increase in traffic volumes could occur and still be within the City's LOS requirements. Traffic counts during. the park's peak season would have to be taken to verify this assessment. The S. 7'h St./Beacon Way S. intersection should operate satisfactorily with the addition of the Arnold property traffic volumes due to the low traffic volumes exisitng at this intersection. The Beacon Way S./S. 7'h St. five-leg intersection meets AASHTO stopping sight distance requirements because each leg is stop-sign controlled. A motorist at any leg of the intersection can see cars that are stopped on the other legs. The lack of any reported accidents at the Beacon Way S./S. 7'h St. intersection indicates that there is currently not a safety issue even during the Philip Arnold Park peak season. The Arnold property site access onto E. 7'h Ct. is located less than 150 feet from the S. 7'h St./Beacon Way S. intersection. The design guideline for the spacing of intersections is 150 feet, when possible, according to the City. Although a connection to E. 7h Ct. has a less than ideal spacing to the Beacon Way S./S. 7'h St. intersection, traffic operations should be adequate. The Arnold property site access can be located approximately 110 feet from the Beacon Way S./S. 7'h,St. intersection due to the property boundary constraints.. Sight distance at the proposed access should be sufficient to see the stopped vehicles at the Beacon Way S./S. 7'h St. intersection and therefore meet any AASHTO requirements. An increase in traffic accidents is not anticpated with the addition of the Arnold property access. A stop sign should be installed at the Arnold property access point onto E. 7'h Court. TRAFFIC IMPACT MITIGATION Traffic Impact Fees The City of Renton requires a traffic impact mitigation fee of$75. per net new average daily trip. Therefore the Arnold property traffic impact mitigation fee is $75. X 574 = $43,050. No other traffic mitigation fees should be required. CA-FINAL PROJECTStRenfon R068099rpLdoc Mr. Ryan A. Fike BENNETT DEVELOPMENT January 27, 2000 Page 7 SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS This report uses existing traffic data collected at the pertinent intersections for analysis. Level of service analyses were performed for existing and projected future (2001) traffic volumes, using the collected traffic data, for the without and with project conditions. The evaluation of the traffic impact of the proposed Arnold property identifies that the project will not cause a significant adverse affect on the operation of any of the study intersections, with none of the study intersections operating worse than LOS B. There are no apparent traffic safety issues identified at the pertinent street intersections. Based on our analysis, the Arnold property project should be approved with the following traffic mitigation measures: 1. Remit the fee of$43,050 to the City of Renton as payment to the City's traffic impact fee program when required by the City. 2. Construct the internal plat streets, intersections and driveways to City of Renton standards. 3. Install a stop sign on the site access street at E. 71h Court. No other traffic mitigation should be necessary. If you have any questions please call me. Very truly yours, TRANSPORTATION PLANNING & ENGINEERIN , INC. • LDH:sv Larry bbs, P.E.

Dear Ms:Larson:. This office received a request for reconsideration•Tegardingthis matter-and the response follows.. First,this office does not discount:that there will.be impacts on:the:.community,both short-lived impacts and long-term impacts. The short-lived(which itself is a relative term).impacts will be. the concrete impacts of development,including construction.traffic and noise. The long-term ' impacts will be increased traffic and noise from new;residents.. That not mean that those impacts will create an overall untoward;impact asirequired for.a SEPA determination of significance. This office will generally,address the concerns in the=manner used by the request. Page 8,#21: The issue was:;.the proposed reduction in hauling truck trips due to a change in • grading.plans. 'The applicant proposed to more closely balance the cut and fill. The change in grading.plans is now considered part of:the.application and cannot;be altered without submitting a new application. The party that ultimately develops the site is not relevant to the permit as reviewed and altered.: The ultimate developer.would be:bound.by.the.application as it was reviewed and:approved. Stafford Crest as.well`as:a number of large apartment complexes have : all resulted in construction traffic similar to if not larger than the construction traffic anticipated. It is:not so significant as.to require the preparation of an environmental impact statement: Page 8,422: The overall impacts of additional traffic including LOS were considered by the documents and bolstered by the testimony There will be additional traffic,and there will be a fraction of a second delay at the signal-controlled-intersection which will not be noticeable.. The LOS for the various intersections,which:is,currently excellent,will not be changed other than that fractional,delay. There is rio question that the hill and.its-various route_s are.quite steep,but the entire record demonstrates that traffic can negotiate it satisfactorily.. • Page 9,#24:Again,,the record demonstrates that:the hill is,now negotiated'by current residents : and can be similarly bynew residents.':•,Staff supported the applicant's studies that the sight distance is acceptable. The record,is closed. The appellant had the burden at the hearing or. hearings;and the information submitted is not timely at this point. = anp l9®gcgOO1 1055 South Grady'Way kenton,Washington 98055.-(425)430-6515;-: ,[+ ., - • = .:: This er,eontains 50%'r "cled material'20% ost consumer" I I.',, PaP eCY P fl - r Ruth Larson Page 2 Page 10, #34: The availability of dial-up service is not crucial to whether or not the subject proposal has more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. Page 10, #38: As noted in the determination,roadway maintenance is determined on need,and if the roadway deteriorates, it will be scheduled for repair whatever the surface or subsurface . conditions. Page 12; #9: Sight distance was discussed above. Alone or coupled with the other issues presented,on appeal did not present evidence necessary to overcome the burden on the appellants in this decision. • Pages 17 and 22 both reflect the minutes and the summarized testimony.:This office Will not • comment on testimony. Page 24,#18: The construction of the overpasses means:that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains as"it had beenin'the past: It may inconvenient to reach or leave the hill,but no more so than for other residents of South Renton when trains run through town. ." t Page 24, #25: The City has a set of adopted policies on how traffic-4to be evaluated. Those • policies were utilized, andthere-is;capacity•toL handle,the.traffic. As o matter of policy review, • - this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts"tojsome,extent byreducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to:,the,Council:wentbeyond.mere:technical issues and dealt with the more personal impacts of the traffic on those residents'along the commute This recommendation also went against stated City Council policythat density reduction by the Hearing Examiner was not generally appropriate.':It seemed that in'•these circumstances,the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction even if that reduction was modest: Page 25,#26: There will be more traffic. That is,clearly stated::The way LOS is calculated shows that there is capacity for more.,cars, andthat*LOS will.not suffer. ,Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will"notice the change..-:That, again, is not refuted. :There is no doubt that residents will notice more traffic. There will be even_less traffic with the reduction of . the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. , Page 25,#28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents On West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills and those near Group Health have steep grades: Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features; The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8.to allow up to eight dwelling units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City-Council to allow a 50,lot plat. If the City Council chooses, it may modify its adopted policies and/or change the Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this: time. Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported problems. .But the record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis.as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton;Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated, although it will affect,but not adversely.(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill: As this office noted at"the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents.will be right alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton Hill.. That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot be accommodated: The record reflects that it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to.alteror reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal of the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat. Since this office is aware that an appeal has:already=been,filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original decision,there is no reason to extend the appeal period. t Ifthis office can provide any"additional assistance,please:feel free to write.

FEB 0 8 200 RECEIVED CITY CLERKS OFFICL REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Numbers: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dated January 25, 2001 Filed by: Renton Hill Community Association Date: February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to.occur...page ,11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to EXH2O, including.photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. `Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week'for=lunch'and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr.Nelson stated`that=as a result of his analysis-and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those who deal with the convergence zone on a. daily basis should carry more weight than someone who"actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 F grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page'24-25,#25: Staff noted that-the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of.Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic - NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes.sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some.accountability;to the tax paying residents who are forced to."adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved.

While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During"construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline: barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from.the West,they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger,building lots with fewer homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a 25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations. Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic'systems.All were old and extremely high maintenance: River- _ • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also allowed four new homes to be built and three or.:four more are in the_ -_. _. _ planning stages to'be built on the North side of' the pipeline: Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine-problems with a rider on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

First,this office does:not discount that there wilt be impacts on:the:cominunity,both.short-lived impacts and long-term'impacts, The short-lived(which'itself is a;relative term),imipacts will be th'e concrete impacts of development, including.construction traffic and noise. The long-term impacts will be increased.traffic_and noise fronr,new residents:::That'does not mean that those • impacts will create an overall untoward impact as;required for.a SEPA determination of • significance. This office will generally.address the concerns in the used by the request. Page 8,#21: The issue was:..the•proposed reduction in hauling truck trips due to a change in • grading plans. :The applicant proposed to more closely balance the cut and fill: The change in.. • grading plans is now considered part of the application and cannot.be altered.without submitting a new application. The party that ultimately develops the site is not relevant to-the permit as reviewed and altered. The ultimate developer would he bound by the application as it was reviewed and'approved. Stafford`Crestas well as a number of large apartment complexes have all resulted'in construction traffic similar to if not larger than the construction traffic anticipated. It is not so significant as to require the preparation'of an environmental impact statement: _ Page 8,#22: The overall impacts of additional traffic including LOS were considered by the documents and bolstered by the.testimony: There will be additional traffic,and there will be a fraction of a second delay at the signal-controlled intersection which will not be noticeable The • LOS for the various intersections,which is currently excellent,will not be changed other than that fractional delay.. There is no question that the hill and its-various.routes are quite:steep,but the entire record demonstrates that traffic can negotiate it satisfactorily.. Page 9,#24:Again;the record demonstrates thatthe hill is now negotiated by.current residents and can be similarly negotiated by new residents.`.Staff supported:the applicant''s studies that the sight distance is acceptable. The record is closed. The appellant had the burden at the hearing or hearings and the information submitted is not timely at this point. 19O1 2001 1055 South Grady'Way -.Renton,Washington 98055 =(425)430=6515 -: . ri); J - - .: _: �Thic nanar,rnntains F,O%'rarvclwd maternal 90%nest rnnsumwr. -`+'IB/:A.C!*.l'��� _ • Ruth Larson Page 2 Page 10,#34: The availability of dial-up service is not crucial to whether or not the subject proposal has more than a moderate impact on the quality of the environment. Page 10, #38:As noted in the determination,roadway maintenance is determined on need, and if the roadway deteriorates, it will be scheduled for repair whatever the surface or subsurface conditions. Page 12, #9: Sight distance was discussed above. Alone or coupled with the other issues presented,on appeal did not present evidence necessary to overcome the burden on the_appellants in this decision. • • Pages 17 and 22 both reflect the minutes and the summarized testimony. This office will not comment on testimony. Page 24,#18: The construction of the overpasses'means that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains as it had been:in the past-Itmay be inconvenient to reach or, leave the hill,but no more so than for"other residents of South Renton when trains run through town. Page 24, #25: The City has a set of adopted policies on how-traffic is to.be evaluated. Those policies were utilized, and there is capacity toliandle,the traffic. As a matter of policy review, • this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts to some extent byreducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to:the Council wentbeyond mere technical issues and dealt with the more personal impacts of the traffic"on those residents along the commute route. This recommendation also went against stated City Council policy:that density reduction by the Hearing Examiner was not generally appropriate.:It seemed that in°these circuinstances,:the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction even:if that reduction was modest: Page 25, #26: There will be more traffic. That is clearly.stated. The way LOS is calculated shows that there is capacity for more.cars,andthatLOs will,not suffer. Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will notice change: That, again, is not refuted. There is no - doubt that residents will notice more traffic. There will_be even less traffic with the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal and'did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. . Page 25, #28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills and those near Group Health have_steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features: The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8to allow up to eight dwelling units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to allow a 50,lot plat. If the City Council chooses, it may modify its adopted policies and/or change the Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this: time. i' • Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported.problems. .But the record does riot show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated, although it will affect,but not adversely.(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill. As this office noted at•the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents will be right alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton'Hill.. That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot.be accommodated. The record reflects that.it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to alter or reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal ors the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat. Since this office is aware that an appealhas alr"eady"been filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original-`decision;there is no reason to extend the appeal period. If this office can provide any,,additional assistance,"please;feel free to write.

REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Numbers: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dated January 25, 2001 Filed by: Renton Hill Community Association Date: February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to EXH2O, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. `Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New.asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor. it. ,. ...., When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr. Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony. of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25,#25: Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic— NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There .. should be some accountability to the tax paying residents who are forced to `adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved. RCW 58.17.010 states:..The purpose of this chapter is to regulate the subdivision of land and to promote the public health, safety and general welfare in accordance with standards established by the state to prevent the overcrowding of land; to lessen congestion in the streets and highways; to promote effective use of land; to promote safe and convenient travel by the public on streets and highways; ...

Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per.year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park.I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots with fewer'homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a 25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations: '' Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems. All were old and extremely high.maintenance.River • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also allowed four new homes to be built and three or four more are in the planning stages to be built on the North side of the pipeline. Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 { RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

(1) The city, town, or county legislative body shall inquire into the public use and interest proposed to be served by the establishment of the subdivision and dedication. It shall determine: (a) If appropriate provisions are made for, but not limited to, the public health, safety, and general welfare, for open spaces, drainage ways, streets or roads, alleys, other public ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation, playgrounds, schools and schoolgrounds, and shall consider all other relevant facts, including sidewalks and other planning features that assure safe walking conditions for students who only walk to and from school; and (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. (2) A proposed subdivision and dedication shall not be approved unless the city, town, or county legislative body makes written findings that: (a) Appropriate provisions are made for the public health, safety, and general welfare and for such open spaces, drainage ways, streets or roads, alleys, other public ways, transit stops, potable water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks and recreation, playgrounds, schools and schoolgrounds and all other relevant facts, including sidewalks and other planning features that assure safe walking conditions for students who only walk to and from school; and (b) the public use and interest will be served by the platting of such subdivision and dedication. If it finds that the proposed subdivision and dedication make such appropriate provisions and that the public use and interest will be served, then the legislative body shall approve the proposed subdivision and dedication. Dedication of land to any public body, provision of public improvements to serve the subdivision, and/or impact fees imposed under RCW 82 . 02 . 050 through 82 . 02 . 090 may be required as a condition of subdivision approval. Dedications shall be clearly shown on the final plat. No dedication, provision of public improvements, or impact fees imposed under RCW 82 . 02 . 050 through 82 . 02 . 090 shall be allowed that constitutes an unconstitutional taking of private property. The legislative body shall not as a condition to the approval of any subdivision require a release from damages to be procured from other property owners . (3) If the preliminary plat includes a dedication of a public park with an area of less than two acres and the donor has designated that the park be named in honor of a deceased individual of good character, the city, town, or county legislative body must adopt the designated name.

The appeal hearing will occur on the same.date,-arid'time-as the original Public Hearing: November 14,2000 at 9:00a.m. in the`7th floor,City Council�Chambers'of the Renton City Hall. At that time the various official parties may motions'and,present their respective positions and evidence and call witnesses. The issues on an appeal will probably be more'limited,.than the issues'regarding the underlying Preliminary Plat. The hearing regarding the Preliminary;Plat will accept all relevant and non- repetitious testimony after the SEPA Because of the inherent limitations.due,tothe?:timing of the appeal and the scheduled public hearing,this office will invite any additional"written correspondence;as,soon as possible but will accept any documents at the public hearing itself If this office can be of further assistance,please feel free to write Sincerely Fred J.Kaufm Hearing Examiner . cc: Mayor Jesse Tanner Jay.Covington,Chief Administrative Officer Larry Warren,City Attorney Neil Watts,Development Services Director Elizabeth Higgins Applicant Parties of Record . • 1055 South Grady Way Renton,Washington 98055.- (425)430-6515 Thic nanar rnntainc FO%rar-vnladsmatarial 90l nnct rnnclimdr..` • - F /s Appeal of Environmental Review Committee from October 17, 2000 CITY OF RENTON Project name: Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat File Number: LUA-00-05 3, PP, ECF NO V 0 6 2000 File Fee: $75.00 RECEIVED CITY CLERKS OFFICE The Renton Hill Community Association finds the follow areas subject to question: ' y S f. . Criteria source - Environmental Review Committee Staff Report Dated October 17, 2000. Page 2, paragraph 5: Why should a street standards modification be granted that falls below the minimum standard? We have minimum standards, why are they not followed? Page 4, Item 10: What protection is offered to those abutting properties in River Ridge and Falcon Ridge? Page 4, Item 12: Renton Avenue South is now posted no vehicles in excess of 20,000: Why is this posting not.recognized? What criteria were used to increase this limit? Page 4, Item 13: What is the Width of the Seattle Public Utilities "Cedar River Pipeline"? Will an emergency access permit be required to be received by the City of Renton before any permits are granted? Page 7, D. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Impacts: "The site lies near the northwest corner of the upland plain at an elevation of approximately 400 feet above sea level." This statement does not go far enough. Renton Avenue South raises more that 300 feet in less than 4/10 of a mile and all construction vehicles on this project will use this street. The Hearing Examiner statement of 1978 File R- 178=78 "The streets are rather steep and serious questions can be raised concerning traffic safety if too many cars use the streets. Between South 3ra. and 7th Streets, Renton Avenue and Cedar Avenue average 9.2% and 7.7% slope respectively: Renton Avenue has a short stretch that has a grade in excess of 15% between the same streets. With the grid iron street pattern, a vehicle (and anything which the vehicle might hit) can be in serious trouble should a serious mechanical problem occur such as brake failure". Page 8, Paragraph 5: Regarding the exception—Why? If we have areas that are "protected" and make continued exceptions the Critical Areas Ordinance is of no value and "protects" nothing. Page 9, Paragraph 5: "The conceptual grading plan indicates that approximately 54,974 cubic yards (82,461 tons) of cut material will be created and 19,233 cy (28,850 tons) of fill would be required. This indicates a high number of hauling trips by large trucks will be necessary." At 30 tons per truck with trailer, this equals 3,7.10.37 hauling trips and 3,710.37 empty trips. This will double if trailers are not used. Renton hill will be paralyzed. These down hill trips half full loads and half empty loads will have no place to Yield to up hill traffic. A truck that has committed to going down hill at 527 Renton Avenue South will not give anyone coming up the hill any place to go. What happens then? You are allowing seven hours per day for this hauling, how many days will it take for 7,420.74 trips? How will you provide for the safety of resident living and accessing their homes on Renton Avenue South? What kind of damage will this many trips do to Renton Avenue South? This issue must be addressed. Mitigation Measures: Page 9, Item 3: Does not address River Ridge abutting property. Air. Page 10, Paragraph 3: The application states that the property will be clear-cut. This ignores the following: Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element:.VI. VEGETATION, Page 9-10. Policy CD-6.5, CD6.6, and Discussion. NOTE: The objective of this policy is to "preserve vegetation for aesthetic and community character and as a means of safeguarding the environment". Water. Page 10, Paragraph 2: If more than 13 feet of land is removed then the depth required should be from the proposed grade level and down 13 feet. 4.Vegetation: Page 11, Paragraph.1: 92% of the trees would be removed under this statement. The 32 trees that would be preserved will only be preserved "if possible". This does not conform to Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element: VI. VEGETATION, Page 9-10. Policy CD-6.5, CD6.6, and 2 Discussion. NOTE: The objective of this policy is to "preserve vegetation for aesthetic and community character and as a means of safeguarding the environment". Again, why have a policy if is not to be adhered to? 4.Vegetation: Page 11, Paragraph 2: Clarification is needed as to who will be responsible for landscaping and when. 4.Animals: Page 11, Paragraph 1: "Wildlife will probably move into the Cedar River Natural Area".... This does not address the solution to the "Deer Population on Renton Hill". It also does not address the protection of the deer and other wildlife. The State of Washington and the Mayor of the City of Renton have stated:-"deer are encouraged to relocate to an urban area". The Renton Hill herd have not gotten the message. In the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element Community Design, Page 9-10,, "Discussion:. Natural and ornamental vegetation provides wildlife habitat, screens unsightly views, reduces exposure to noise and wind, softens the appearance of developed areas, provides shade, stabilizes soil and assists in the percolation of surface water runoff, and frames view corridors. Appropriate selection of vegetation is critical in the success of its survival and the effectiveness of the intended effect. These policies support the development of landscape standards and maintenance plans, and • coordination between landscape plans and drainage systems plans. Landscaping is encouraged along travel corridors and the preservation of significant landscape features such as heritage trees is expressed." Clear-cut and bulldozing completely dismiss this entire policy. Page 12, 8. Land Use. Paragraphs 3 and 4. There was a complete procedural failure on the part of the City of Renton in rezoning this property. The Renton Hill Community Association has been a group for more than.24 years. I have been its President for more than 18 years and have spoken both before the Renton City Council and the Hearing Examiner in that capacity. As President I have been on the City of Renton's mailing list to Community Organizations for more than 18 years as well as in the Renton Chamber of Commerce list of Organizations. My name and address are on file. When the State made its mandate to rezone, neighborhood meetings were held in many neighborhoods. Not Renton Hill. Page 13, 9. Housing. Paragraph 1. Bennett Homes will not be building these homes. The Home values will have to be stipulated to the Company actually doing construction. 3 Page 13. 10. Aesthetics. Paragraph 1.

"Homes, particularly those adjacent to Phillip Arnold Park, could be impacted by light spillover....". Either the light will or will not have an impact on the neighborhood. Page 13. 12. Recreation. "The applicant has proposed that several landscaped areas or "pocket parks" would be created within the development." Who will create and where will they be created? Page 14. Historic and Cultural Preservation. Paragraph 3. ".....that a potential change would probably not be more than other neighborhoods in the City are experiencing,... ." Please name any other neighborhood in Renton that has: The same steep grades as Renton Hill, and the same limited street capacity (Renton Avenue South), and the same limited site distance areas, and the same access restrictions, and Yield to up hill traffic signs, and eight deer, and the same safety issues as Renton Hill. Paragraph 5. "Although the distance between the entry road to the project and the intersection (110') is below the City design guideline for spacing of intersections (150 when possible), traffic operations should be adequate based on low traffic volumes." Where is this measurement from and to? The map scale does not clearly indicate the area measured and does not look to be even 110'. This report does not address the safety issues during and after construction for the residents living in River Ridge. All traffic generated by this development will use the River Ridge access on South 7th Court. "Should be adequate"? Is that now? Is that during construction or just based on after completion? What access will be used and where will construction equipment be parked. When some of the testing on this property was done, access was achieved via the Seattle Water Pipeline Road and equipment parked on this access. What is the plan for all construction vehicles access? 4 Page 15. Fourth Dot. "...S. 7th street is very steep with grades in excess of fifteen percent. The grade in question is 26%. Quite an excess and closed if it is icy or we have snow. Page 15. Seventh Dot. "There is no transit service for residents on Renton Hill, due to the steep grades and narrow lanes." How can it be that streets that are too steep and narrow for transit are o.k. for earth hauling trucks, cement trucks, backhoe carriers, bulldozer carriers and on and on? Page 15: 10th Dot "No improvements are planned by the City of Renton for streets on Renton Hill." So where will the fee collected for Transportation Mitigation be spent? Page 15. Paragraph 1. "...construction vehicles in excess 26,000.gvw,. associated with the project..." What will this excess weight do to Renton Avenue South? And how will this affect the mine shaft Vent that continues to sink on Renton Avenue South?. Page 15. Paragraph 2. Again where will this mitigation be spent? Renton Hill has no marked crosswalks, corner yield signs, limited site distance signs, and only 4 speed limit signs. The North East corner of South 7th turning North on Renton Avenue South, is such that a turn will take all trucks into the oncoming side (South bound) of Renton Avenue South. Page 15 Mitigation Measures: 1. Gross Weight and Numbers of Trips and Road Damage answers. The Renton Hill Community Association does not write the policies of the City of Renton. It is the City of Renton's responsibility to enforce these policies. We ask.no more but..expect no.less. The continued "variance" policy does not protect the Cities residents. This proposal and Environmental Review do not "Provide-a healthy atmosphere to live and raise families" as stated in the City of Renton Vision, Mission and Business Plan Goals.. The safety of residents on Renton Hill is greatly jeopardized by even considering the shear numbers of trips required by the removal of cut material and addition of fill material. The City has failed to acknowledge the access hazards and danger this project places on all of Renton Hill's Residents.

Page 2, paragraph 5: Why should a street standards modification be granted that falls below the minimum standard? We have minimum standards, why are they not followed? Page 4, Item 10: What protection is offered to those abutting properties in River Ridge and Falcon Ridge? Page 4, Item 12: Renton Avenue South is now posted no vehicles in excess of 20,000: Why is this posting not recognized? What criteria were used to increase this limit? Page 4, Item 13: What is the Width of the Seattle Public Utilities "Cedar River Pipeline"? Will an emergency access permit be required to be received by the City of Renton before any permits are granted? Page 7, D. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Impacts: "The site lies near the northwest corner of the upland plain at an elevation of approximately 400 feet above sea level." This statement does not go far enough. Renton Avenue South raises more that 300 feet in less than 4/10 of a mile and all construction vehicles on this project will use this street. The Hearing Examiner statement of 1978 File R- 178=78 "The streets are rather steep and serious questions can be raised concerning traffic safety if too many cars use the streets. Between South 3rd and 7th Streets, Renton Avenue and Cedar Avenue average 9.2% and 7.7% slope respectively: Renton Avenue has a short stretch that has a grade in excess of 15% between the same streets. With the grid iron street pattern, a 1 vehicle (and anything which the vehicle might hit) can be in serious trouble should a serious mechanical problem occur such as brake failure". Page 8, Paragraph 5: Regarding the exception—Why? If we have areas that are "protected" and make continued exceptions the Critical Areas Ordinance is of no value and "protects" nothing. Page 9, Paragraph 5: "The conceptual grading plan indicates that approximately 54,974 cubic yards (82,461 tons) of cut.material will be created and 19,233 cy (28,850 tons) of fill would be required. This indicates a high number of hauling trips by large trucks will be necessary." At 30 tons per truck with trailer, this equals.3,710.37 hauling trips and 3,710.37 empty trips. This will double if trailers are not used. Renton hill will be paralyzed. These down hill trips half full loads and half empty loads will have no place to Yield to up hill traffic. A truck that has committed to going down hill at 527 Renton Avenue South will not give anyone coming up the hill any place to go. What happens then? You are allowing seven hours per day for this hauling, how many days will it take for 7,420.74 trips? How will you provide for the safety of resident living and accessing their homes on Renton Avenue South? What kind of damage will this many trips do to Renton Avenue South? This issue must be addressed. Mitigation Measures: Page 9, Item 3: Does not address River Ridge abutting property. Air.

This does not address the solution to the "Deer Population on Renton Hill"..It also does not address the protection of the deer and other wildlife. The State of Washington and the Mayor of the City of Renton have stated: "deer are encouraged to relocate to an urban area". The Renton Hill herd have not gotten the message. In the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element— Community Design, Page 9-10, "Discussion: Natural and ornamental vegetation provides wildlife habitat, screens unsightly views, reduces exposure to noise and wind, softens the appearance of developed areas, provides shade, stabilizes soil and assists in the percolation of surface water runoff, and frames view corridors. Appropriate selection of vegetation is critical in the success of its survival and the effectiveness of the intended effect. These policies support the development of landscape standards and maintenance plans, and coordination between landscape plans and drainage systems plans. Landscaping is encouraged along travel corridors and the preservation of significant landscape features such as heritage trees is expressed." Clear-cut and bulldozing completely dismiss this entire policy. Page 12, 8. Land Use. Paragraphs 3 and 4. There was a complete procedural failure on the part of the City of Renton in rezoning this property. The Renton Hill,Community Association has,been a group for more than'24 years.

Paragraph 5. "Although the distance between the entry road to the project and the intersection (110') is below the City design guideline for spacing of intersections (150 when possible), traffic operations should be adequate based on low traffic volumes." Where is this measurement from and to? The map scale does not clearly indicate the area measured and does not look to be even 110'. This report does not address the safety issues during and after construction for the residents living in River Ridge. All traffic generated by this development will use the River Ridge access on South 7th Court. "Should be adequate"? Is that now? Is that during construction or just based on after completion? What access will be used and where will construction equipment be parked. When some of the testing on this property was done, access was achieved via the Seattle Water Pipeline Road and equipment- parked on this access. What is the plan for all construction vehicles access? 4 Page 15. Fourth Dot. "...S. 7th street is very steep with grades in excess of fifteen percent. The grade in question is 26%. Quite an excess and closed if it is icy or we have snow. Page 15. Seventh Dot. "There is no transit service for residents on Renton Hill, due to the steep grades and narrow lanes."

That hearing dealt mainly:with _ ` an appeal of the Environmental Review Committee's(ERC)•State'Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) determination in the Heritage Renton Hill,Preliminary Plat(LUA-00-053). In order to accommodate those persons who.could not testify at a later time or date,some testimony,regarding the Preliminary plat was . - taken. There was insufficient time to complete the on November:14,and the hearing was therefore continued to November 16,2000. It was during the.cburse of that'continued hearing that it became clear "that providing only two days notice(November 14 to November;16)of the continuance did not allow persons who might have already had prior commitments to attend the_second,hearing. This office, ' therefore,determined that the hearing_should be continued with additional lead time. The continued hearing will begin at 6:00 p.m.,on Tuesday',December 12,2000. The hearing will be held in the City Council Chambers on the 7th Floor of the Renton..City Hall:The matters relating to the appeal have been concludedTlie only issues to be discussed at this hearing will be regarding the Preliminary;Plat. = The only testimony and evidence that will accepted will have to be,relevant'and non-repetitious.

There was insufficient tune to complete the hearing on November 14,and the hearing was therefore continued to November 16,2060. It was'Airing the course of that continued hearing that it became clear that providing only two days notice(November 14 to November16)of the continuance did not allow persons who might have already had prior commitments to attend the'second,hearing. This office, therefore,determined that the hearing should be continued with additional lead time. The continued hearing will begin at 6 00 p m on Tuesday,December 12,2900. The hearing will be held in the City Council Chambers on the 7th Floor of the Renton City Hall: The matters relating to the appeal have been concluded The only issues to be discussed at this hearing will, be regarding the PreliminarYPIat. The only testimony and evidence that will accepted will have to be relevant and non-repetitious.

This week those comments have been considered by the appropriate departments of the City that are reviewing the land use action submittal. In particular,the project/park access as proposed was discussed in a meeting of members of the Development Services,Public Works (Transportation), and Community Service(Parks)Departments of the City of Renton. In addition to the design of the entry to the proposed preliminary plat and Philip Arnold Park, general transportation issues in the Renton Hill area were discussed. • As you are aware,this project was scheduled for review at the May 30,2000,Environmental Review Committee(ERC) so that they could make a State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) Threshold Determinatiion.''At;this time,additional information will be required prior to-the ERC meeting. Therefore;the.ERC`meeting,and'subsequently the public hearing previously scheduled for June 27,2000,will be rescheduled. Until additional information, as outlined in this letter, is received and accepted as adequate,the project is on hold, as of the date of this letter. As mentioned, a primary concern is related to transportation issues on Renton Hill. For this reason,please ask the transportation engineers to supply the following: Traffic Count • Provide traffic counts for a period of twenty-four hours per day for one week for the following streets (not intersections): 1. S 7th Street between Grant Avenue S and Renton Avenue S 2. Cedar Avenue S between S 4th Street and S 5th Street 3. Renton Avenue S in the 300 block Park Traffic :Discuss:additional traffic to parks-for ball field Use,group'picnics, and general park use and how.traffic.generated by the park location relates to capacity of the proposed development: 1055 South Grady Way-Renton;Washington 98055 alThis oaoer contains 50%recycled material.20%nnst noncumnr Mr.Ryan A. Fike Bellevue,WA 98005 Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat,LUA00-053,PP,ECF May 26,2000 Page 3 • Accident Records • Provide accident incident reports for the past five years for intersections and streets in the Renton Hill area. Characterize these by nature,location,number of incidents. This area includes streets bounded by Interstate 405 on the west and north,the Shuffieton Right of Way to the south, and the Cedar River greenway to the east.The Falcon Ridge development may be excluded. Intersection Reconfiguration Design • The intersection reconfiguration proposed is not acceptable to the Transportation Division or the Parks Department. The existing access along Beacon Way S to the park must remain as it is now. Access to the plat should be evaluated directly from SE 7th Court east of the Beacon Avenue ROW. This new intersection would include a stop sign for the new street at SE 7th Court.The existing interchange would remain unchanged. This configuration would require vehicles exiting the plat to stop at SE 7th Court,turn left onto SE 7th Court,and stop again at the existing top sign at SE 7th Court's intersection with the Seattle Pubic Utilities' ROW, Beacon Way S, S 7th Street, and Jones Avenue S. Analysis • A traffic analysis of this intersection must be submitted that demonstrates that it would operate effectively given the amount of increased traffic generated by the proposed development and the unusual number of streets that intersect. If you have any questions,please call me at 425-430-7382. You or the transportation engineer may also contact Neil Watts,Director of Development Engineering Plan Review at 425-430- 7278.

That hearing dealt mainly with an appeal of the'Environmental Review Committee's(ERC),State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) determination in the Heritage Renton Hill Preliminary Plat(LUA-00-053).'In order to'acoommodate those persons who could not testify at a later time or date,some testimony regarding the Preliminary Plat was . taken. There was insufficient time to complete the hearing on.November.14,and the hearing was therefore continued to November 16,2000. It was during the:course of that continued hearing that it became clear that providing only two days notice(November14 to NovemberJ6)of the continuance did not allow persons who might have already,had prior commitments to attend the secondhearing. This office, therefore,determined that the hearing,should be continued with additional'lead time. ' The continued hearing will begin at 6:00 p.m.,on'7uesdayTDecember 12,2000y. The hearing will be held in the City Council Chambers on the 7th Floor'of,the Renton:.City The matters relating to the appeal been concluded. Tlieonly issues to be discussed at this hearing will be regarding the Preliminary,Plat. The only testimony and evidence that'will accepted will have to be,relevant and non-repetitious. This office will not entertain redundant testiiiiony,as that adds nothing factual to the record and does not aid in the writing of the necessary findings and conclusions required by City and State law. If this office can be of further assistance,:please feel free to write. . • Sincerely, Fred J.Kaufman Hearing Examiner FJK:jt cc: Mayor Jesse Tanner Jay Covington;Chief Administrative Ofcer Larry Warren,City Attorney Neil Watts,Development Services Director Elizabeth Higgins Zanetta Fontes .

The change in grading plans is now considered part of the application and cannot be altered without submitting a new application.

Stafford Crest as well as'a number of large apartment complexes have all resulted in construction traffic similar to'if not larger than the construction traffic anticipated. It is not so significant as to require the preparation of an environmental impact statement.

Page 24, #18: The construction of the overpasses'ineans-that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains as:-ithad beeninthe past It may be inconvenient to reach or r leave the hill,but no more so than for other residents of South,Renton when trains run through town. Page 24, #25: The City has'a;set of adopted policies on how`traff c"-is,tto,be evaluated. Those • policies were utilized, and`there is;capacity'tohandle.ihe traffic. As.a matter of policy review,. • this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts'to'some_extent by;reducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to the Council went beyondmere;technical issuesand dealt with the more personal impactsofthe traffic on those residents along the commute'route. This recommendation also went against stated City Council policy that density,:reduction by the Hearing Examiner.was not generally appropriate.:'•It seemed,that in these circumstances,,the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction even if that reduction was modest ;. Page 25,#26: There will be more traffic.`That is:clearly:stated` The way LOS is calculated shows that there is capacity for more cars,andthatLOS will not suffer. Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will notice:.thechange::=That, again, is not refuted. :There is no doubt that residents will notice more traffic. There'will be even less traffic with the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. . Page 25, #28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills and those near Group Health have steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington . have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features: The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8to allow up to eight dwelling . units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to, allow a 50 lot plat. If the City Council chooses, it may modify its adopted policies and/or change the.Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this time. Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported problems. .But the record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated, although it will affect,but not adversely.(as used.in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill:.As this office.noted at-the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents will be.right - alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now. living on Renton Hill:.That does not mean that new development does not fit or that.it cannot-be : • accommodated: The record reflects that it can be accommodated. In closing,-there is no reason to alter or"reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal or. the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat.

Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips: The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.)The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to EXH2O, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior, center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no.. gravel base underneath to anchor it., When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 A. some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level ,of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr. Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis..and, actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily.basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question"a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The. elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #25: Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax paying._residents who are forced to'"adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get.to the County. Inadequate: City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 ti In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of.houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved. RCW 58.17.010 states:..The purpose of this chapter is to regulate the subdivision of land and to promote the public health, safety and general welfare in accordance with standards established by the state to prevent the overcrowding of land; to lessen congestion in the streets and highways; to promote effective use of land; to promote safe and convenient travel by the public on streets and highways; ...

Renton Wa. 98055 6 LETTER FROM KEITH MOBERG (see para. 8) December 11, 2000 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus,trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline,- barrier at"Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with-our.Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building.lots with fewer homes and have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is "evident but no small community should experience a°25% increase in size = and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations: .• Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems. All were old and extremely high maintenance. River Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also allowed four new homes to be built and three or four more are in the - planning stages to be built on the North side of the pipeline. Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each.property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

Pages 17 and 22 both reflect the minutes and the summarized testimony. This office will not comment on testimony. Page 24,#18: The,construction of the overpasses means that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains as it had been;'inthe past: It may be inconvenient to reach or. leave the hill,but no more so than for other residents of South.Renton when trains run through town. Page 24,#25: The City has a set of adopted policies on how traffic is to be evaluated. Those • policies were utilized,and there-is:capacity to handle:the-traffic. As a matter of:policy review,. • this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts;to;some.extent by,reducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to the Council Went beyond mere technical issues and dealt with the more personal impacts of the traffic on those residents along the commute route. This recommendation also went against stated City Council policy:that density reduction by the Hearing Examiner was not generally appropriate. It,seemed that in these circumstances,the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction even if that reduction was modest Page 25,#26:,There will be more traffic. That is,clearly:stated: The way LOS is calculated - shows that there is capacity for more.cars;and'that LOS:will'not-suffer. Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will notice the change, That,again, is not refuted. :There is no - doubt that residents will notice more traffic. There will be even less traffic with the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. Page 25,#28:Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills and those near Group Health have steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features. The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8 to allow up to eight dwelling units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to - allow a 50 lot plat. If the City Council chooses, it may modify its adopted policies and/or change • the.Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this: time. • Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported problems. tut the record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton,Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated,although it will affect,but not adversely(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill. As this office noted at the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents will be right alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now_ living on Renton Hill.. That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot be accommodated. The record reflects that it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to alter or reverse either the original decision-on the.SEPA appeal or the Recommendation to the City Council to.approve the plat. Since this office is aware that an appeal has already been filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original decision;,there:is no:reason to extend the appeal period. If this office can provide any;additional assistance,please:feel free10 write.

Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately'750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum .to .EXH2O, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr.Nelson stated that as a result of his'analysis and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony-of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually. drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 • grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #2�5: Staff noted-that the City._anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax paying residents who are forced to "adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections servin this site, Main Avenue S.and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. n view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the luestions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith iloberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. 'age 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to he conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in he past, including other new residents. kdjustment to a.problem.does not make the problem go away. '.ONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner n the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the ►afety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access :o this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full tensity". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad !nough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner ias not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the eduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no dequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the ublic Interest. The approval of this development would leave the -sidents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither ddressed or resolved.

Renton Wa. 98055 6 LETTER FROM KEITH MOBERG (see para. 8) December 11, 2000 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting..in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus,;,there,will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy.equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without the ability to access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in .. the development. : Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots with fewer homes and.. have all access come from the East while maintaining the:existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character.are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a'25% increase in size . . and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations.. Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems. All were old and extremely high maintenance. River • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System.:That also allowed four new homes_to_be built and three or four more are in,the planning stages to be built on the North side of the pipeline.` Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety.' RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The fmal statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON - Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

Pages 17 and 22 both reflect the Minutes arid the summarized testimony. This office will not comment on testimony: Page 24,#18: The construction of the overpasses means that access to the hill is not completely blocked by passing railroad trains.as it had been in the past. It may be inconvenient to reach or• leave the hill,but no more so than for,other residents of South Renton when trains run through town. Page 24,#25: The City has,a set of adopted policies on how traffic is to be evaluated. Those policies were utilized,and thereis.capacity to:handle the traffic. As a matter of policy review,. • this office attempted to reduce traffic impacts;to:some extent by reducing the total number of lots. This recommendation to::the Council:went beyoncimere technical issues'and dealt with the more personal impacts of the traffic on those residents along the commute route. This recommendation also went against stated City Council policy that density by the Hearing Examiner w as not generally appropriate:`,It seemedthaf in these circumstances,the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction_even:if that reduction was modest: : ` Page 25, #26: There will be more traffic.- That is.clearlystated.

There will be even less traffic with the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal• . and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. Page 25,#28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills arid those near Group Health have steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features. The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8 to allow up to eight dwelling units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to allow.a 50 lot plat. If the.City Council chooses,it may modify its adopted policies and/or change the Zoning: This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this: time.' • Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported problems. .But the record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated,although it will affect,but not adversely(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill. As thisoffice noted at the public hearing, there is no doubt that ifsome future development were proposed;these new residents will be right alongside the current residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton Hill.. That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot,be accommodated. The record reflects that it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to alter.or reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal or the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat. Since this office is aware that an appeal has already been filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original ilecision°:there.is no reason to extend the appeal period.

FEB 0 8 200i RECEIVED CITY CLERKS OFFICL REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Numbers: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dated January 25, 2001 Filed by: Renton Hill Community Association Date: February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself (including but not limited to Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum .to EXH2O,. including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to_anchor it. When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis.(LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: 'Mr. Nelson stated that as`a result of his analysis and.. actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those'who 'deal with the convergence'zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and.Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of.I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #25: ` Staff noted that the City anticipated an increase in overall traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes sure.Cities roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax paying .residents who are forced to "adjust" to the amount of traffic generated by new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved.

Renton Wa. 98055 6 LETTER FROM KEITH MOBERG (see para. 8) December 11, 2000 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12, 2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus, there will be an additional semi trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses.' The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without: the ability to Access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building Jots with;fewer homes hand have all access come from the East while maintaining the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and.character.are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should experience a;25% increase in size ;. and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations... . Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South Oh were . septic yhigh --: on s stems.'All were old and extremelymaintenance:River • Ridge allowed.:residents to hookup:to the City Sewer System..That also allowed four new-homes to be built and three or four more are:in:the planning stages to be°built on the North side of the pipeline. - Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an"oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider on the titles of each property: We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel21.has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.

This recommendation also went against stated City Council policythat density,reduction by the Hearing Examiner was not generally appropriate.At It seemed that in these circumstances,the balancing of impacts demanded a reduction even;if that reduction was modest: Page 25,#26: There will be more traffic.'"That is;clearly stated: The way LOS is calculated shows that there is capacity for more cars,and,that`LOS will not suffer. Add one new home to an existing block and one neighbor will notice the,change,:;Thai, again, is not refuted There is no doubt that residents will notice more-traffic. There will be even less traffic with'the reduction of the plat to 50 homes from the proposed 57 homes. The Fire Department reviewed the proposal-. . and did not indicate any new concerns over serving the existing community. Page 25;#28: Many areas of the City have less than standard roads,both in terms of width and in: terms of grade. Residents on West Hill above the airport have similar roads,and those in Windor Hills and those near Group Health have steep grades. Residents living along Lake Washington have rail blocked access and one lane roads. The City is either blessed or cursed by interesting terrain features,' The subject site was clearly reclassified to R-8 to allow up to eight dwelling - units per acre. That density was reduced somewhat by the recommendation to the City Council to • - • allow a 50.lot plat. If the City Council chooses,it may modify its adopted policies and/or change • The.Zoning This office has worked within the laws that govern this proposed development at this. time. Ruth Larson Page 3 In conclusion,nothing short of leveling the hill will resolve the purported.problems. But the record does not show that developing the subject site will have more than a moderate impact on the quality of the overall environment. The technical analysis as well as the experience gained by reviewing the accident history and habits of Renton_Hill residents demonstrates that this development can be accommodated, although it will affect,but not adversely.(as used in SEPA) affect,the current residents who live on Renton Hill..As this office noted at the public hearing, there is no doubt that if some future development were proposed,these new residents will be right - alongside the current.residents attempting to preserve the quality of life esteemed by those now living on Renton Hill..That does not mean that new development does not fit or that it cannot be accommodated: The record reflects that:it can be accommodated. In closing,there is no reason to alter or reverse either the original decision on the SEPA appeal or the Recommendation to the City Council to approve the plat. Since this office is aware that an appeal has already been filed with the City Council and since this letter did not change the original decision,there.is no reason to extend the appeal period. If this office can provide any additional assistance,pleaserfeel;free to write. - Sincerely, Fred J.Kaufman Hearing Examiner FJK:jt cc: Mayor Jesse Tanner ,.,, ....

REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings File Numbers: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF Dated January 25, 2001 Filed by: Renton Hill Community Association Date: February 7, 2001 February 7, 2001 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton Request for Reconsideration File Nos.: LUA00-149,AAD and LUA00-053,PP,ECF January 25, 2001 Page 8, #21: "The original plans called for a substantial grade and fill effort...the number of truck trips would probably be reduced to approximately 750 trips. The original estimate would have generated approximately 3,700 trips." The applicant is not going to build or develop this property. This probable reduction of truck trips is not included as a recommendation, and probable is not binding to whoever does develop and build. (Probable: "Probable" means likely or reasonably likely to occur...page 11; 4.c.) The number of trips generated by the construction itself(including but not limited to'Cement trucks, Lumber trucks, construction workers daily trips, Sheet rock, roofing, and etc) are not addressed. Page 8, #22: "The fact is, transportation impact analysis including LOS information and sight distance information shows that the existing road system can handle the additional traffic including the additional approximately 50 to 60 vehicle trips that would be generated during the peak hours." The transportation impact analysis did not include sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So., the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include 1 factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety"... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are not included regarding the problem sight area. Page 9, #24: The technical analysis would appear to show that at normal driving sitting position, the view is not significantly impaired. This statement leads to the request to add an addendum to EXH2O,, including photographs. This technical analysis is not complete and therefore not accurate. Page 10, #34: While there is no public bus route serving the hill, residents can apparently use a dial-up service for vans. This statement is in error. "Dial-up service is restricted to the disabled and in some circumstances qualified seniors. The senior center will pick-up.-seniors, twice per week for lunch and to shop at two designated stores. Page 10, #38: "Renton Avenue was checked and it is four inches of asphalt over crushed rock." John Giuliani (see page 18) stated that when Renton Ave was repaved, he personally observed that all the asphalt was removed down to the dirt. New asphalt was placed directly on top of the dirt with no gravel base underneath to anchor it. • When the City of Renton checked Renton Ave So, they drilled three holes and found crushed rock. Unfortunately they did not ask Mr. Giuiani where he watched the asphalt placed without any foundation. The sample holes were not in the area Mr. Giuiani observed. It would have taken one phone call to establish the location of the problem. The City's transportation people chose not to call therefore did not locate the problem area. Page 12, #9: The various analyses demonstrate that the LOS will not be substantially changed. The analyses also demonstrate that while there are 2 some constraints due to the steepness of the hill and the narrowness of the roadway, but that the additional traffic can be safely accommodated As with page 8, #22...The transportation impact analysis did not study sight distance on Renton Ave. So. The sight distance mentioned in the report spoke only to the intersection at Beacon Way So./S7th street. LOS was done only at intersections so does not include the 500 block of Renton Ave. So, the location of the sight distance problem. The Transportation Impact Analysis on Page 4 includes the following definition: Level of Service Analysis (LOS): "Conditions include factors such as speed, delay, travel times, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience and safety" ... It should be noted that"such as" indicates all these factors have to be looked at and included. There is no indication in the transportation impact analysis that these factors were looked at and they are certainly not included regarding the sight distance area. Page 17, John Nelson: Mr. Nelson stated that as a result of his analysis and actually driving the roads in question, he did not think there is any significant problem with sight distances on the roads in Renton Hill. Mr. Nelson did not include the convergence of traffic in his analysis. His analysis concerned one car. Many Residents of Renton Hill testified to the problems with sight distance on Renton Hill. Surely the testimony of those who deal with the convergence zone on a daily basis should carry more weight than someone who "actually drove the roads in question" a few times and then did analysis on a single vehicle. Please refer to the requested addendum to Exhibit 20. Page 22, Mr. Nelson: ...graphical measurements were made on 7th Avenue from the project site all the way down to Renton Avenue S and Cedar to the bottom of the hill. These were graphical measurements made on the computer. On-the-ground fieldwork was done all the way up Renton Avenue S. The Renton Hill Community Association has requested (no less than twice) that a road engineer make an on site physical determination of 3 grade percent be done at the 500 block of Renton Ave. S. A determination of grade percent using a topographic map does not provide the accuracy required for an exhibit that is given weight in an Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearing. The on-the-ground fieldwork was done only to provide measurement information and line of sight for a single vehicle. Exhibit EXH2O is incomplete. Findings. Page 24, #18: Reconstruction and realignment of I-405 during the last decade provided a second crossing of I-405, and both crossings were elevated and therefore removed the railroad crossing. This statement is in error. The realignment of I-405 did not provide an elevated crossing over the Railroad crossing on Mill Ave. S. The elevation only applies to the crossing of I-405. Daily the Spirit of Washington Dinner train passes thru the Mill Ave. S./Houser Way area at the foot of Renton Hill and blocks access to the Hill (twice for lunch and twice for dinner). Rail deliveries to The Boeing Company, Paccar, and Kenworth are all made on this Railroad track. Page 24-25, #25: Staffff noted that,the.City anticipated an,increase in overall .. traffic of approximately 50 percent, and that the 25 percent increase was reasonable. If the City of Renton Staff is anticipating and increase of 50 % in overall traffic — NO plat or permit should be approved until the Staff makes.sure Cities. roads are adequate to handle the increase. There should be some accountability to the tax..paying residents who are forced to "adjust" to the.amount of traffic generated by:new housing and those who pass thru the City to get to the County. Inadequate City streets should have been considered at the same time the growth management act was enacted. That the Cities and the Counties did not figure this out at that time doesn't necessarily mean the problem should not be addressed now. Perhaps a building moratorium would give local governments time to resolve this problem. Page 25, #26: The traffic analysis shows that the major intersections serving this site, Main Avenue S and S 4th Street, Houser Way and Mill, Cedar and S3rd and Renton Avenue and S 7th will suffer no degradation in LOS. 4 In view of the fact that #18 on page 24 is in error and that the questions raised in a December 11, 2000 letter written by Keith Moberg ( see paragraph 8) to the Hearing Examiner have not been addressed, this item should be reviewed. Copy of letter attached. Page 25, #28: Staff did suggest that new residents would have to adjust to the conditions of access just as other residents on the hill have adjusted in the past, including other new residents. Adjustment to a problem does not make the problem go away. CONCLUSIONS: In reading the conclusions of the Hearing Examiner in the Appeal and Preliminary Plat Hearings it becomes clear that the safety issues have not been resolved. Item 14 admits that if access to this project from Puget Drive was granted "the narrow and steeps streets would not be a issue and the plat could be built to full density". The Hearing Examiner has admitted the problem is bad enough to reduce the number of houses built. The Hearing Examiner has not met the traffic requirements. There is no evidence that the reduction of houses built will reduce the impacts. There are no adequate provisions for traffic that would indicate this plat is in the Public Interest. The approval of this development would leave the residents of Renton Hill with a traffic/safety problem that is neither addressed or resolved.

Renton Wa. 98055 6 LETTER FROM KEITH MOBERG (see para. 8) December 11, 2000 Mr. Fred J. Kaufman Hearing Examiner City of Renton I am writing concerning the proposed Bennett Homes development on Renton Hill. I have attended the Bennett Homes informational meeting, Renton Hill Homeowners Assoc. meetings and the Nov. 12,.2000 meeting in your council chambers. While some questions have been answered I have a few of my own. I reside at 627 High Ave. S. less than 2 blocks from the proposed building site. The sheer number of proposed houses and the traffic associated with them has me questioning the safety and capacity of the existing road system. During construction which has been estimated at two years plus,:there will be an additional semi'trucks and trailers and various heavy equipment. Though you have received many written letters and voice concerns I have my own. As a professional firefighter I respond out of a Station that has over 5,000 runs per year. Time is critical on responses. The steepness of hills like Renton Hill slow extremely heavy vehicles like fire apparatus, trucks and heavy equipment. Due to the unique parking conditions on Renton Ave. S. and Cedar Ave. S. the ability of large vehicles to pass another is impossible. If my house were on fire or a family member was in a medical emergency these delays could be and are deadly. Magnify response times considerably if Renton Fire Department, Station 11 is out of quarters. Who in the City is willing to take responsibility for these delays? My next concern is the traffic light at the bottom of Renton Hill on Mill Ave. So. Presently it allows only three vehicles to proceed on a green light. A semi-truck and trailer equal the length of three cars. The new stop sign on Mill next to Station 11 and by old City Hall has traffic backed up to the intersection of Mill and Houser. After construction 57 new homes will be added to our hill. That is 9.55 trips per day per house according to your impact statement. 540 trips generated on top of the 200 plus households equals an increase of 25% in homes and traffic on a hill to steep for buses and described as a large cul de sac in a 1978 traffic study. My concern has been and still is the increased traffic on our small neighborhood roads. If egress for the development was East of the pipeline barrier at Phillip Arnold Park I doubt you would have the problems you have now. Bennett Homes in their first meeting with our Assoc. admitted without. the ability to.access Renton Hill from the West, they weren't interested in the development. Though the planned development is not popular I realize the right of the School District to sell their property. I would question how the 10 acres was zoned with no one on the hill notified of any zoning change. My solution would be to rezone to larger building lots with fewer homes and have all access`come,from the East while maintaining,the existing road block. With these or similar requirements met I scarcely believe you would have any major complaints. In conclusion Renton Hill is a unique neighborhood unlike any other in the City. The safety and character are prized by every resident. Change is evident but no small community should:experience a'25% increase in size and population without the same percentage increase in road improvements and safety considerations..: Thank you for your attention. Keith Moberg Presented to the Hearing Examiner during the hearing December 12, 2000, by Ruth Larson. Reference to RCW 58.17.110 (not new material) I would like to dispel some of the myths concerning Renton Hill. We did not oppose the River Ridge development. We welcomed it. None of the houses North of the Seattle water pipeline were on the City sewer system until the River Ridge developer applied for a permit that included a sewer line from this property to a connection on Renton Ave. So.All of the homes North of the pipeline from High Ave. So. Grant Ave. So. and on South 6th were on septic systems.All were old and extremely high maintenance. River • Ridge allowed residents to hookup to the City Sewer System. That also - allowed four new.homes.to be built and three or four more are in the planning stages to be built,on the North side:of the pipeline. Renton Hill did not oppose the Falcon Ridge development. The original plan of Falcon Ridge called for it's main access from the Seattle pipeline road and the removal of the gate on the pipeline. When the plan was changed to access from Royal Hills Drive, there was nothing to oppose. When Falcon Ridge requested a second gate be placed at the South end of the pipeline road to prevent late night disturbances and illegal activity on the road, Renton Hill absolutely agreed and the gate was installed. The City of Renton seems to have adopted an "oh well" attitude to the increase of 25% more traffic on Renton Hill without acknowledging the 25% loss of safety factor. The City has covered themselves by the statement of possible coal mine problems with a rider- on the titles of each property. We will hold the City responsible for any condition caused by this loss'of safety. RCW 58.17.110 states (b) whether the public interest will be served by the subdivision and dedication. We want to know just how Renton Hill resident's interest will be served. The City of Renton television channel 21 has a statement listing the organizational structure. The final statement of this structure states, "Renton Citizens are of course at the top of our organizational chart." We will see. REVISED CODE OF WASHINGTON Page 1 of 1 RCW 58.17.010 Purpose.
