TO: Ryan McIrvin, Council President
Members of Renton City Council
FROM: Armondo Pavone, Mayor
Ed VanValey, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Administrative Report
• The 2022 Structural Condition Assessment field surveys for the structural facilities at
Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park began September 6 and
will be completed by September 15. The assessment is conducted every five years to
determine the structural condition and safety of the park facilities and structures. Park
facilities will remain open during the process except for brief and isolated closures at
the boat launch. Structural assessments, conducted primarily via boat, will include in-
water diving and above-grade visual inspection.
• Surface Water Utility division performs annual cleaning of the Madsen and Maplewood
sediment ponds to remove gravel, sand, and fine sediment that would otherwise
deposit within the creek channel and cause flooding problems. Sediment basin cleaning
work was completed in August. Consistent with permit requirements, live fish were
removed from the stream segment between the sediment pond outlet culvert and the
temporary dam built to divert stream flow around the pond. Fish were also removed
from the sediment ponds as water was pumped out. All fish were relocated to Madsen
and Maplewood Creek downstream of the sediment ponds.
• Renton History Museum has added Tuesdays back into their schedule, with open hours
Tuesdays through Fridays, 10 am-4 pm. Mask-required hours are on Tuesday, 10:00am-
12:00 pm for the benefit of those who prefer to wear masks. Masks are currently
encouraged at other times until further notice. Current temporary exhibits are With This
Ring, a history of marriage in Renton, and Ukraine: Carpathian Mountain Villages, a
collection of photographs by Anna Mia Davidson.
• Information about preventative street maintenance, traffic impact projects, and road
closures happening this week can be found at http://rentonwa.gov/traffic. All projects
are weather permitting and unless otherwise noted, streets will always remain open.
